Anyone know if 3g is available on ATT network w/ vivow. I'm currently running an H2O Wireless SIM which is an MVNO that piggybacks the ATT network. I get data but the icon shows E which I'm assuming is EDGE, and it's very slow, like less than 100kbs upload/download speeds. I'm trying to find service cheaper than Verizon.

I'm working with H2O tech support (I use that term lightly) to help configure the APN but nothing seems to give me good data speeds or anything other than EDGE. I'm located in a suburb of Chicago where speeds/signals are good almost everywhere.

Help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Dude you seriously need to read before posting, you just killed like 8 million baby otters.

As stated earlier in the thread, you will only get Edge network because the radios are different. If you can't deal with 25 - 30kb/s keep Verizon
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jawmail:
Otters be damned, I do read, lots actually, thanks bro, peace.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
No offence but I'm getting tired of answering these same questions over and over. Most anything has been answered by the time you reach this part of the thread

Does GSM work on official CM7 for the vivow? As in http://get.cm/?device=vivow. Is there a way to completely disable CDMA? I am asking because I am thinking of giving my Incredible 2 to a family member overseas to use as their primary phone and they will have access to 2100Mhz 3G there. But I am running CM7 and prefer to use this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Yes, its in the OP as fully working
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] razerz:
Dude Can u post the link from where you downloaded the Rom. And i know it works for Inc S, But for Inc 2? Wow pls forward the link here Dude. I tried Inc HD, Zeus, MiUi And liquid and of all the 4 zeus gives gsm completely. Liquid partially ( thpough weird) provides Gsm.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] AlonPurim:
unlocking

I rooted with s-off my inc2 and it's all good

and I can ask a guy with xtc clip tool to unlock it

however, it kind of takes all the phun away from this

I'm trying to find out if there is a phun manual way to do it?

I installed the terminal app and ran "find / -name nv_data.bin" on the whole file system, but found nothing. I searched for all bin files. I tried the same with the adb shell. Apparently, nv_data.bin is for samsung phones only.

any tips on how to manually unlock it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
If you can get a clip, do it that way. Much easier, and you don't have to worry about root issues when taking an ota

MIUI v 2.4.6 for HTC Droid Incredible 2

If you have ever browsed over miui.us then you must have noticed that the last working build for HTC Droid Incredible 2 is either MIUIv1.12.30 or MIUIv1.12.9, but if you browse on

goo.im->miui->vivow

then there are further versions for our device. Hence i downloaded the second last version MIUI v 2.4.6 & I am confirming after using it for a week that it works awesome & flawlessly in GSM.

To make it work on GSM, Download “MIUI.us_vivow_2.4.6_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_buildbot.zip” from goo.im &

flash the rom & while it boots for the first time u will notice that 'phone.process.com' fc's..so dont panic just connect your mobile to PC & type the following commands-

> adb shell

# su

# sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db 'update secure set value="1" where name="preferred_network_mode"'

# reboot

After the phone reboots, the Force Closes stops, next step is –

Dial *#*#4636#*#* to get into test mode

Go to Phone Information > Set preferred network type: GSM only

Now again connect your mobile to PC & again type the following commands in ADB-

> adb shell

# su

# sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db 'update secure set value="1" where name="preferred_network_mode"'

# reboot

Now GSM works & enjoy the latest version of MIUI for our device.

& yeah if you switch off the phone/reboot...then you are lost in No service mode forever!

I tried wiping caches, but that didn't help!

So, in order to avoid it, before rebooting/switching off the phone, Turn on the Airplane Mode & let the aeroplane icon appear in your status bar.....& now you may either reboot/switch off the phone!

After switching your phone on...just turn off the Airplane mode...and you start receiving signal!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
it doesnt support gsm...

i dont like to badmouth or flame other developers (i use developers loosely) but i dont think those guys really know what theyre doing

my best guess is they took virtuous primadonna, and found proxusers sense 4 port guide, and just mixed some stuff up

i know a lot of people like the aroma installer's gui, which is catchy so it that seems like a plus for the rom (i dont use it because its still buggy and doesnt always flash add ons correctly)

these guys dont seem to know anything about the inc2 or cdma phones in general...they just "support" the inc2 because the files where in the primadonna zip...and since the virt guys didnt get a chance to fix inc2 stuff in their rom, its not working in this one

they rationalize gsm data is working because its a port of a gsm rom: false, changes to make it work with cdma only breaks gsm (unless you mod it along the lines of mikrunny like newt did)

their bugs list is wrong in regards to this phone:

those may be the only bugs on the particular phones they have to test on, but not this phone:

additional bugs:

and data was originally broken until i told them what to change to get it working

i only bring this little "rant" up because the impression that their op gives, is that their rom is more functional than opensense, and its not at all...they are supporting this device w/o one in hand, and without any real experience...this isnt a jealously post (im the last person who will ever say only run *my* roms) but one of irritation :cool:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :

I can Confirm that the above solution for MIUI works like a charm.

Great one. Thanks:khamsakamal48.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
I'll also confirm it. I use MIUI.US as my daily rom on T-Mobile US. This solution works but the newest build is 2.4.13
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] khamsakamal48:
Yeah..its 2.4.13...but when I flashed it...I got stuck in error 6

in CWM! I know it's something related to script error but don't know how to correct it! :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Have you tried wiping all partitions except SD card? I use 4ext recovery myself but I'm sure its not much different
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] khamsakamal48:
Yeah...still it shows an Error 6/7!!!! :(

I don't remember the exact number..but when I googled about it..its something related to script error!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
OK have you tried jboxers super duper Mega wipe script after wiping everything (except SD card of course)? Maybe even doing a factory reset from the boot loader?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] khamsakamal48:
No...I didn't tried this..will certainly do it tomorrow!

I hope that solves the error!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Archangel:
If it's a script error, the updater script wasn't wrote correctly. Try replacing it from an earlier version of the rom, if possible.

If you still have issues, send me a copy of the build prop an meta inf files, an I'll try to fix the issues

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

........Death before dishonor........
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
What's weird is I'm using 2.4.13 now. I just used 4ext Recovery Control and I just had it super wipe all partitions ext4 then install with the MIUI gapps, titanium 5.0.0 and SuperSU. Its worked fine for me. All i had to do was fix the crashing part after first boot up then set it to GSM only mode. Now it runs like a charm
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Archangel:
Interesting
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] forgiven90:
For GSM users only!

Has anyone checked out modifying the build.prop for faster 2g/3g through put speed? In the Inspire 4g forum there is an thread titled 'Editing the build.prop for faster data speeds' (other threads covering this subject as well in different devices, including one knipp21 started in general for this device)

Unfortunately I'm living in an area that transmits HSDPA with the 850/1900 frequencies (I need a incredible s to get 3g!) So I can't test fully. But this has helped my 2g speeds a bit it seems.

I found some comments that Cyanogen had these settings optimized, but in the latest CM9 I modded they weren't, according to this Inspire thread...

Any thoughts...discussion?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] khamsakamal48:
Oops...I am sorry Liquidsmoke for a small misunderstanding!

Yeah...date wise MIUI v2.4.13 is the latest, but i felt that as per the series "miui_NS_2.2.3_4.0_deodex.zip" is latest and in this build i faced status 6/7 error. I actually got confused between 2.4.13 & 2.2.3!!

Mr.Highway-thanks for your prompt help. Kindly find the files you asked for & hope that you fix it.

So what do you recommend?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] The Archangel:
Fix the build prop, that's a given :cool: . I'll find a updater script that's something easy to work with.

ICS for Droid Incredible 2

and any one provide me with working ICS rom for DI2..coz last tym i installed it and i faced severe network issues as i was not able to select GSM options in it....my phone is verizon and i use it in India so i have to use GSM option....but in ICS it was not available...and also please provide me with the link of Original Gingerbread ROM....
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
You should look at ICS again buddy. AOKP & CM9 UNOFFICIAL both now have GSM.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jutaieb:
I'm facing the same issue. PIN code never requested and network not found.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] daniETingles:
sigh.. you people really need to learn how to READ before asking questions that have been answered time after time.

Step 1: Dial *#*#4636#*#* to get into test mode

Step 2: Phone Information > Set preferred network type: GSM only. Then your phone will start crashing, until you do the step 3 fix.

Step 3:

> adb shell

# su

# sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db 'update secure set value="1" where name="preferred_network_mode"'

# reboot

Now GSM works.

step 3 needs to be done on terminal emulator, which is a free app from the android market.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Thanks, I was just going to ignore them. If they can't read first too bad, its on the OP even.... dumbasses
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ILikeBubbles:
-ignore this-
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Ignored. :P
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Lol ignoring haha. But at least you guys have REAL questions most of the time that actually haven't been answered in the OP. Some of these noobs need to just read FIRST
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BossMafia2:
So I've followed all the steps exactly, using both the terminal and adb to enter the sqlite command, but I can't get service. I read somewhere else to change the network operator, but it just sits forever on "Searching" and never gives me any options. If I go back to the test menu, I see that the phone has changed to WCDMA preferred by itself and it always goes back to that. I'm running the latest MIUI on an Incredible 2.

As a side note, how might I switch back to CDMA?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
OK so which newest MIUI version? Some claim 1.12.30 is the newest GB version, I however actually use the newest 2.4.13 GB version but you'll only find it via Goo Manager. Though in reality Nitsuj17s MIUI 4 is, current build 2.5.4 R1.

Anyway if you do the trick via terminal emulator like me, just do it, reboot, reset it to GSM only then go to network operators then choose Select Automatically and you should be good.

I've done this on ALL current MIUI versions available and replicated it.

Hope this helps
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BossMafia2:
Ah my bad, I was referring to Nitsuj17's builds, since the official ones are horribly out of date anymore. I'm back to CDMA after a reflash, so I'll probably try starting off fresh going only from the terminal emulator tonight and report back how it works. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
OK let me know how it goes I'm happy to help if I can
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BossMafia2:
Alright so I tried again, and this time I was able to see a list of networks! Only issue is it's a T-Mobile sim card, but wouldn't let me connect to the T-Mobile networks, it said something about the card not allowing it or something like that, don't really remember the issue. Either way, after I tried it once, along with pressing Automatically select network, I wasn't able to find the list again, and I couldn't have it automatically select the network either.

Also, as an interesting point of note, I was able to get back to CDMA by doing the same steps to get to GSM, except substituting a 5 for the 1 in the sqlite command and setting it to CDMA auto in the test settings.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Hmmm I have a T-Mobile sim card and it works fine. Is the phone still sim card locked? You know you have to input the apn settings in manually too to get crappy Edge network data right?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] BossMafia2:
It shouldn't be sim locked anymore, I got a code a while ago and unlocked it. I have since flashed a ton of roms though...

I'll have to try a different sim card, this one may not be active anymore
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
Trust me, it stays unlocked. I've flashed roms at least 5 times a day testing stuff

Does anyone have or know of a signal bar fix for us gsm users? I'm running the latest cm9 from aero and don't ever see more than 2 bars. Ran aopk for a bit same thing. Tried his 7.2 and they worked great... Guessing it's part of the unofficial thing? Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
No but if you find a fix...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] forgiven90:
I found a fix for this I believe...using build.prop Editor, edit the build prop "ro.telephony.ril.v3". In the Property Key add: ",signalstrength" onto datacall to look like this: datacall,signalstrength

Press save and reboot. I cleared dalvik and cache also... Don't know if this is needed or not for those that are using the sqlite3 fix. (btw I'm not able to get this sqlite3 reboot fix to 'stick'. It'll change the value, I checked in root explorer, and a couple reboots later it's back at "0"any ideas?)

Hey nice that works great thanks, I'll add this to the OP so others can use this OK. but as far as your question hours I'll have to look in to it but it seems to stick for me

unlocking rooted D Incredible 2

Hello all,

I am new to rooting, unlocking, and hacking the Android OS. I have looked all over the web and read this thread for help.

After cancelling my Verizon service I rooted the phone with Revolutionary and tested ROMs such as ICS 4.0.4, then went to andyBONESTOCK as I see I need a stock ROM to unlock it. Then I bought an unlock code from cellunlocker.net that does not work in the "Disable SIM lock" screen. The phone says it is invalid. Also I am not prompted for the unlock code after booting the phone with a TELUS SIM card inserted. All I see after the phone boots is that the SIM was rejected, switching to global mode. Furthermore, I have lost my Verizon/vodafone SIM. Does this matter? I get my phone status information in spite of it. Is there a built-in SIM card in the phone?

I realize I did things in the wrong order...now.

So. Am I stuck here? Has anyone successfully unlocked their phone with andyBONESTOCK running or is there another ROM I can try? Perhaps the code is bad? Do I need to try another SIM card, as it may be the fault of the new SIM card?

Please help. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
The normal process is to, as a customer in good standing, request the unlock code for your phone.

I'm not sure how you're going to achieve that, since you're no longer a customer, let alone one in good standing (which means you've paid your bill on time for 6 months).

The unlock would work regardless of ROM.

Hope you can find a solution!

GSM Data issue on ICS Bases roms!!!??

Is anyone else having issue that the Edge data wont connect instantly on ICS based roms??

For me, as soon as I enter the apn, it shows a 'E' beside the signal bar...then an upward arrow over the signal bar & then the 'E' disappears!!! & after 5-10 seconds it again displays E then an upward arrow & again the E vanishes!!! It continues for more than 30 mins and after that E stays there & there is upward n downward arrows being shown & then the signal bar turns blue!!!!

Only after that I can have data!!!

I have experienced the same in all ICS roms viz. CM9 by aeroevan /AOKP!!!

Well....the data connects instantly on GB roms...so its not a network issue!!!

Any suggestions...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] :
I must say it again...

After entering your apn settings and you see the E blinking, go to the dialer settings, then keep pressing the voicemail service setting and selecting my carrier.

The button and the popup should line up so you can do this very quickly in succession. Just keep doing it till the E stays and your good.

I have done this on all the ICS rims so far and it works everytime

Also, may want to try changing the build.prop line that reads:

That may help.
