Hello, i've installed WP7 on my HD2 and am currently on the 7720 Beta cleanup.

No problem so far, now...

I've installed several SDK's and packages, and cannot find for the love of god, "Application Deplyment". I must be missing something, and Chevron cannot connect, Tom's XAP tool also cannot connect.

Anyone care to give a tip ?

Update, after yet another reboot, Chevron started and said my phone was unlocked. So silly me, i locked it :) And now chevron won't unlock it :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Skyjouby:
I had the same problem.

Firstly, don't forget that you must install the new SDK for Mango.

For me nothing enable me to deploy in exception of this one:

[17/10] W.I.N.C.O.'s mini SDK WP7 (4.21Mb instead of 1.4Gb)

Now, nothing runs properly except TomXAP1.2.

Hoping it will be good for you

Pardon me if I'm wrong, but the market is the market...there isn't different markets for each carrier. If you're looking for a particular app that's available for Sprint only...you'd have better luck looking for that app's apk. I don't think there's a way to make a T-Mobile phone show the Sprint market.

The title of this thread is what keeps happening to me at least once after I flash an update or a theme on my phone. Its been happening since I've used the icbinb ki series. It usually will happen once or twice after a titanium backup restore. Or turning on the phone after calibrating the battery. Someone please give me some feedback. No i'm not a noob as you can see been here for a long while, I read and follow directions to the t. So I'm very confused with this! It happens when I'm on uv stock kernel default settings or oc.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Your framework is crashing. That's what's causing the soft reboot. Usually due to a theme not meant for the build you are using.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thcnme956:
I only use themes labeled for the rom i'm on. it happens after fresh ROM fashes as well... I read somewhere about soft bootloaders for 2.3.5. Are they different than the 2.3.4 bootloaders from kg4? I'm thinking this must have something to do with it. It started happening after first flashing 2.3.5. I haven't odined of the releases.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
I used to get issues similar to that when my ext 4 partition was incorrect. Maybe look there.

Hello All,

I was looking at the GS II in the TMO store today - still comparing it vs. the Amaze - however now leaning towards the GS II, and I wasn't too found of the keyboard. I am assuming that Swype, which I really like, can be used on it?

Thank, in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jorge330823:
Yup it should come pre installed and if not go to swype website and download the beta.

I can confirm that it does come pre-installed with swype.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] azsl1326:

Hey guys,

For the past couple of months I've been posting reviews of Galaxy S II cases for the International model on my YouTube Channel, just today I picked up the T-Mobile version so I'd like to continue my reviews for this device.

I'm having a hard time finding branded cases for the device (I usually contact SGP, Otterbox, BodyGuardz, etc) - I'd love to bring more reviews to you guys so if you could link me to some sites for branded cases I'd be grateful!

Thanks in advance,

Hopefully we wil start seeing more branded cases soon. I pit the T-Mobile Body Glove on the wife's phone (really she claimed it) and now I need a decent case. I may pick up a D30 to hold moe over until something like Otterbox or Trident cases comes out.

It was rough figuring out that very few of the "Galaxy S II" cases on Amazon don't work. They should have just called it the Hercules and been done with it...

Just picked up a D30 case on my way to night class. Had to call 5-6 stores before I found one that carried D30 cases.

Fits beautifully. Doesn't mess up the t-mo screen protector when on the phone. Nice feel to it, kind of like the Ringke cases. Buttons are kind of stiff, but I'm sure it will need to be broken in. Much easier to push the buttons then the tpu hybrid case I got on eBay.

In-store cost is $24.99. Well worth it IMO. Very nice quality as you can see from the previous pictures posted.

Is the D30 plastic or rubbery texture?

+1 for the D30 case. It has a nice rubbery feel with good grip and excellent protection.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ken2681:
I went to the Tmobile store today and tried on the D30, the case it not as stylish as the Body Glove White and Gray one. In terms of fitting, Body Glove fits better. I know is a bit more pricey, but Body Glove is better from my eyes.

i ordered it on ebay!after ordering it i saw this in the description "The box is Re-Packaged by us after unlocking along with a high quality OEM battery and charger.

OEM Battery/Charger is a compatible Battery/Charger and NOT manufactured by Samsung".anyone bought it on ebay!did u get the same or should i cancel the order?
[Focus Accessories] ab.grafix:
I ordered from ebay , i got the original samsung battery and charger. so check other sellers
[Focus Accessories] EnderPsp:
Few things to consider (now and later):

- if the seller specified no returns, or specific conditions for returns, you'll be forced to respect those conditions, as per eBay rules.

- other people (including myself) are using OEM Battery/Chargers with no issues.

- if something is too good to be true (too cheap), it's probably not.

- you should have asked why the original charger/battery wasn't included; personally for me this indicates either a refurbished phone or an overworked phone, or that the owner was careless, or even worse, a stolen phone (but it depends on circumstances, ofc).

- if the item doesn't correspond to the description, you can open a dispute in eBay/PayPal
[Focus Accessories] bhaskar1590:
it is mentioned in the description that it is a brand new phone

Cell-force.in

Cart2india

The device and accessories offered by cellforce are genuine and original also y=the shipping time is minimum. wheres cart2india gives oem battery and charger also doest provide earphones also the shipping time takes around 10-15 days.

Returned the phone to the seller as i was not happy with the accessories. Got the refund :D

I will highly recommend cellforce for the genuine product he sells

[Focus Accessories] ashokeez:
Hi All,

DONT ORDER FROM CART2INDIA!!. The listing itself says Local :eek: (read FAKE).

I recd the Phone (its new!!!), was of old version software (OS.7008) (Hardware ver:1.4) made in Dec'10.

NO OEM SAMSUNG BATTERY..:eek:

NO USB DATA CABLE :mad:

NO HEADPHONE :(

SO NOW BUYING TIPS.

(i) Ask Vendor : NEW or REfurbished or Returned phone (These both appears NEW:p)

(ii) Ask Hardware version : 1.4 is new (1.3 is old)

(iii) OS can be updated... so really no issue.

(iv) Items bundled (AT&T bundles headphone, manual, data cable, oem charger and oem battery.

Google to find Refurbished....

Any questions..?? HAPPY TO HELP:)
[Focus Accessories] drpratik:
Best pointer is check the box colour.

If it is AT&T white and orange box then you are safe.

But in Indian eBay,I have seen listings saying new box packed but box is white blue which indicates AT&T refurbished.

I will get my phone today from a seller cellphone.in. If the phone is hardware version 1.4.Can you upgrade to mango os?.and after mango upgrade do I have to unlock the phone?I am using Vodafone sim card in bombay
[Focus Accessories] nipungupta7:
me and my friend got our phones on friday from cellforce

the box is some white/blue with samsung logo only. it has insets, data cable, charger head and earphones, all original, i bet, local make cannot be so good

phone is hardware 1.3, but no problem. works good. no sign of damage or anything

good phone

unlocked, and easily updated to mango by using Zune

i will recommend him

also, as far as the hardware version is concerned, i am not sure, but that may be any minor change

also, about new or refurbished, i don't know. i don't think we can do anything about this. i believe that Apple is also selling all the refurbished 3GS in India as new

and also, considering the price, it is way better than the cheapest windows phone (omnia W) available in India

so that's not a bad deal at all

and about warranty, just take care of your phones hardware for 1 year, as software is not a problem

its a good deal guys, go for it. you wont regret
[Focus Accessories] vasi3:
I got my phone yesterday.It is V 1.4 firmware.zune found one update for thr phone.This update is for Feb.2011.Still no mango update for my phone
[Focus Accessories] ashokeez:
Hey Guys.,

Remember Hardware version 1.3 is very old. Ver 1.4 is new one and Probably Updated memory configuration. Ver.1.3 was stopped in OCT'10 itself. SO you have got a OLD stock or REFURBISHED or RETURNED phone:eek::eek::confused::confused::eek:

Point.2 . MANGO update is under testing for ver.1.4. So ver1.4 users have to WAIT..:mad::mad: Ver.1.3 users can easily update to Mango. Use Zune and google "mango update for focus".

Point.3: Dont Update the software once you have gotten the phone. First UNLOCK the Software using ChevronWP7 and unlock the software first. Some users got locked after updating the OS version, but some are lucky..:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Point.4: AT&T reurbished Phones (Ver.14) are good and same as NEW Ones! So dont worry abt refurbishment. Manufacturer refurbished phones are Value For Money!!! On the box AT&T logo in Blue and white box with NO Samsung Logo means ""REFURBISHED". I got a refurbished phone, ALL NEW, but it got "HEATED" up upon continual talk time... say if you speak for 15 minutes continually, it will Turn inot Iron BOX;);). And each phone will behave on its own, due to various issues with individual phones!!!!!!!!:confused::confused:

Enough???
[Focus Accessories] EnderPsp:
Your point being?

1. I'd like to see some proof of hw revision 1.3 stopped in Oct 2010. Afaik, first 1.4 revisions were spotted around March. Even assuming the 1.3 hw revision was stopped from production, assuming *every* 1.3 Focus has been sold, is far fetched. Also, from what I've been reading, people got hw v1.3 as refurbished as well, which also makes sense in the context of unwanted returns.

2. That's unfortunate at best.

3. This goes for all Focuses, regardless of revisions/version etc

4. Refurbished is NOT new.

Also, there are no "issues with individual phones". "Different issues with each phone", yes, possible.

Heating after 15 min talking is definitely abnormal. I've been on conversations for 25 minutes and the phone got warmer, but not hot.

Also, talking is similar to using data connection (3G or WiFi) as voice is still data. I've been using WiFi for hours without getting hot. Warm yes, hot no.

do check it out

Hey.. U are right.. Mango Update for 1.4 is not released and under testing.
[Focus Accessories] benerjee2k:
I got my focus from ebay and it is ver 1.3, they took almost month to deliver and I have updated to mango with out any issues..

After getting the phone I noticed battery wasnt original, but charger is original. I spoke to Cart2India and they agreed that it wasnt mentioned earlier and they at&t is doing it since they selling the phones in auction for cheap rates. I said the battery is not good and it gets over in 10 to 12 hrs with minimal usage, they agreed to send the original battery for free and it will take 2 weeks.

I dont mind not getting headset and cable since I have data cable and headset I paid locally 300 for Samsung one. So I got the phone for 12,240 and head phone and data cable is not expensive to buy outside. However OEM battery remains only for 20 to 24 hrs with minimal usage, will try and see how long it comes on original battery.

Can anyone say how is the original battery performance or its bad.
