[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] enelyam:
Hi, I have a galaxy ace in here with the sim unlock code but when i put the foreign sim card the phone wont ask for the unlock code. Thing is that i tried every single secret code found with no success also. Is there someone who have been thru the same situation? If so, What to do then? It's from Claro PR by the way. Firmware 2.2.1
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mdfzhi:
from where did u get the unlock code?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] enelyam:
From the bml5 inside the phone. Does it makes a difference? Because the thing is that the phone won't ask for a code when i insert a foreign sim, and if i try the secret codes it won't aloud me either
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
Unlock codes are unique to each phone, generated from the IMEI. Therefore none other than your unique code will work. Unless it is really important I don't suggest unlocking. If you really need to, then contact the provider or get one from ebay.

Putting in a foreign SIM and restarting the phone should bring up the window you are looking for.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] enelyam:
Already tried that, and the phone still won't ask for it. Even with the secret codes the phone won't aloud me. On the other hand, yes it is important because i want the phone to work with Tmo and not ClaroPR. Like i said, i have the code, what i do need is someone who knows about this. In fact, i know that if i flash a non official stock rom i will be able to introduce a code. But im not sure if the phone will accept it. Anyways thanks m8!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] codeknight11:
If your phone is rooted go to system/ and copy the build.prop file and save it somewhere on your sdcard (in case something goes wrong)

Go back to system/ and edit the build.prop file. In the file change the value of " keyguard.no_require_sim=true" to "keyguard.no_require_sim=false"

I am not really sure if this will help. Its just a wild guess, but you can still try it :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] enelyam:
Thanks for your help m8, i did solve the problem but i did it just flashing a non carrier froyo on that phone. At least i was able to unlock it :). Anyways that solution of yours makes me curious. Nice to know that might be the solution for that. I have tried what i did before with no luck but i think the mistake was that when i failed to unlock with that other phone i updated it from froyo to gingerbread. And if i am not mistaken i took the bml5 code from the gingerbread not the original froyo that came with the phone. Anyways hopefully if someone finds himself with that situation this will help...

Hello everyone! I have just received my first android phone and want to completely remove everything on there (Fresh install). Before I do this I have a few questions which I know must have been asked many times before:

1) Can I root my Motorola MB220?

2) How can I root my phone?

3) Where can I get ROMS to install?

4)How can I backup my phone in case something goes wrong?

had anyone having problems connecting their phones to their pcs ever find a fix?

my phone still won't get recognized by my laptop. not to sure why. it hasn't been able to recognize it since i flashed to gb. my wife has the same phone stock and the laptop sees hers fine.

things I've tried:

reinstall drivers

restarts

kies

different rom

different laptop

different cables

download mode

factory resets

debug mode and ask on connection

deleting the usbs from device manager

like i say my wifes phone can get recognized by my laptop. i think the bootloaders for gb has something to do with this problem but that's just me thinking.

i get an unknown device error in device manager. also when i was installing the drivers and

hooked up the phone it seemed to fail on CSc and adb our something can't really remember
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
In what way are you trying to get your device recognized? Mass storage or download mode?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
either way
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
See if your computer will read just the sd card.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
i really want to flash a new rom but i can't cause the pc won't recognize the phone in anyway. the rom i have now doesn't have cwm and i can't odin cause of this issue.

yeah it reads the sd card by it self. thanks i didn't try that but i also did try no sd card and no sim card in the phone with same problem
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
i can't use heimdall either cause the pc won't recognize the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
Heimdall runs on different drivers than kies or Odin. Uninstall kies and Odin then install heimdall and the drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
Your computer sees your device it just doesn't know what it is. I thinks this is because Odin jacked up your device drivers. many people have this issue and can resolve it by reinstalling the drivers combined with a different version of Odin. Did I mention Odin is unstable? Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
ok I'll give your thread a shot hopefully it works i wanna try valhalla and the new roms our

use the kj6 with beta 2d kernel one click. The kernel is still beta but it's stable and has voodoo cwm.

If you have trouble installing drivers try using your other stock device for driver installation.

Crossbones Kernel version: 0.1.0

The Crossbones Kernel (tuna) was derived from the Codename Android kernel, which is based upon (and created by) the Savaged-Zen kernel. We chose to base our kernel off of this particular kernel as mwielgosz has worked closely in the past with the developers of this kernel.

The original kernel base is built off of 4.0.4 kernel source code and is at linux version 3.0.26

Source code:

https://github.com/C...nes_kernel_tuna
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwielgosz:
Apparently were having issues with wifi on this release. Tomorrow I will release a build with the stock kernel and see if that fixes our issue. If not, we shall debug.

ROM Manager

Hello everyone,

Crossbones ROM is now available on ROM Manager.

Currently, if you are a premium user, RM will not detect an update for Crossbones if you are on a version less that 0.2.0 (which has yet to be released). So once, 0.2.0 IS released, RM will notify you of an update

Would like navigation softkey options. Toggles in notification pulldown like expanded Settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reverepats:
Tested and ran 0.2.0 a few days ago and I was amazed that it ran as smooth as it did clocked at 1.4. No matter what kernel supported 1.4 I wasn't nearly as stable as SZ's. U guy did a hellava job on this. Yes, all the options aren't I. There just yet, like AOKP and others. By this thing was light weight and quick. Give the DEVs sometime for them MODs. Don't think these guy are into KANG. :beer:

Ok so i just tried to install this and i wiped twice data, cache, dalvich cache. It installed normal then installed gapps inclosed it booted up and went thru set up it then freezes and reboots and starts looping. i battery pull it boots up i go into market and start loading apps and it cuts off and loops again, i get it to boot with a battery pull go into market and it freezes immediately.

Had a guy have this happen. He re downloaded and re installed with no issues. if properly installing again fails, please try that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jta462:
@jr313, any luck?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] housry23:
I helped test this 0.2.0 ROM and have been running it for a few days now. I am impressed. Like my friend reverepats said, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some of the more established ROM's at this point, but what it does have is stability and speed. I am also getting great battery life on this ROM and by great, I mean the best I have ever gotten on my GNex, even OC'd to 1.4GHz. If your skeptical, make a nandroid of your current setup, flash this and try it out. If your not satisfied then go back to your nandroid. I was using winner00 CM9 Kang for the longest time until I helped test this. I had tried other ROM's, but always went back to CM9 Kang. Once I installed this ROM I have not looked back. It has been great so far!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jr313:
Its a no go on my phone, i re-downloaded it and the gapps and fresh installed but it did the same thing just constant reboots. I wanted to give it a go but it doesn't like my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jta462:
Just to be sure. Full wipe, Format system, wipe cache and dalvik. Then flash ROM and newer gapps in the same session. We haven't any issues like this so I'm wondering wtf. And of coarse don't flash another kernel while installing. Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mwielgosz:

Just wanted to thank you for the link to the beta. I had not run crossbones since my nexus s 4g. I must say that it was solid as usual. I didn't run into any issues, according to my usage. The only thing I ran into was that I could not get max cpu to stick for me. I was however running a custom kernel (since you said you guys hadn't worked on the kernel yet) so that could be the case. I like the way you implemented the toggles in the notification pane. Like I said, it was solid for me. I was on it since you posted it, and am only leaving it to run the OTA. Thanks.

Solved! I had to pull battery, go into recovery with Vol Up + Power + Home Button then clear user data and cache. Rebooted just fine after that :).

My problem is that i got the unlock code from this phone from t-mob, however this particular phone that i got someone was messing around with it and was able to by pass the unlock code notification which i really need right now to put the code... couple of things that i need help with....

1. How do i manually enter the code if the notification is bypass if there is no way then

2. Is there a way to get the firmware or OS installed again so whatever modification that was done will be taken out and hopefully the Unlock Sim notification will show up again.

3. Is there any flashing tools for this and well connecting to the second question i guess firmware or rom....

Advance thanks to all :)

EDIT:

I've done Master or Factory Reset still doesn't show up....

What i got is "SIM?" then "?"

I've also tried to the the method for att where you do some sim pin things, the thing there is that the sim pin isn't bein recognize for some reason eventhough i know it.... all attemp fails...

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
I found out that it is possible to gain root access in an 'unrootable' update, IF you are S-OFF, by flashing ClockworkMod thru the bootloader, and then flashing Superuser thru ClockworkMod. I found out that this worked on the G2, as described here by rdmerck:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1206930

So all i did was replace the android_info.txt and the recovery.img in his zip, with the ones for our device. I just tried it, and it worked! i have Superuser access in the new 1.55.531.3 ROM.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Pretty simple...

1. Download the 2 attached files, put them both on the root of your sdcard, and rename the CWM_HBOOT.zip to PG59IMG.zip.

2. Boot into the bootloader however you prefer, let it read the PG59IMG.zip, and press volume up to update when prompted. When it finishes, it will prompt you to press Power to reboot.

3. Now boot into recovery however you prefer, and it should be ClockworkMod(I used the Modaco 4.0.0.9 version, basically because i had it conveniently lying around in .img format. I'm sure Rom Manager could now be used to flash the latest 5.0.2.7 version of CWM). Choose 'install from sdcard', then 'choose zip from sdcard', then choose the Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip and choose 'yes'. As has happened in the past, i had to flash it 3 times until it successfully installed. But it did work.

4. Choose to reboot, and enjoy root access on the latest stock ROM!

I figure a lot of people probably won't need all that instruction, but i included it for people who are newer to flashing stuff thru the HBOOT and CWM. I also figure that the user base for this will probably be very small, as most folks who are S-OFF probably are not choosing to run the stock ROM. But anyway, if you DO have S-OFF, i wanted you to know that you can have root access on the latest update. I figure this will also enable us to make nandroid images of the new ROM, if that would help development at all.

Anyway, here are the 2 files:

ClockworkMod: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18474790/CWM_HBOOT.zip

Superuser: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18474790/Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip

Note:

-This worked for me and should work for you, but use at your own risk.

-You must be S-OFF to do this.

-Hopefully this is only a temporary solution for those with S-OFF, until either Team Revolutionary cracks the update, or HTCDEV fixes whatever is preventing their bootloader unlocker tool from working on our device.

how do i upgrade to the latest OTA if i'm already on a rooted stock ROM?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] HebrewToYou:
Well, since nobody has made a custom rom with the latest OTA bits, you will have to do what I did:

You'll need to downgrade yourself with the stock PG59IMG.zip, putting that file (found here) on the root of your sdcard and booting into the bootloader.

That will basically return your phone to stock and, IIRC, revert your status to S-OFF Locked. Then you'll need to boot up and check for system updates. You'll definitely be given the first small OTA update, but you very likely wont receive the latest OTA update via system updates.

For that you'll need to download it (from here) and flash it through the stock recovery. Once you've done that you can use the instructions in this thread to re-flash clockworkmod recovery and re-root.

Your phone will still be S-OFF but you'll have a locked bootloader.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Hotshot205:

Are you s-off?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Hotshot205:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] psychedel!k:
so does that mean i won't be able to restore a custom rom image?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Since you're S-OFF, you could flash ClockworkMod on the update and then flash a custom ROM, but I believe that would leave you with an old ROM and the new radio, which seems to have caused issues for people. Since there aren't yet any custom ROMs based on the latest update, you should probably stay where you are if you want a custom ROM. But if you do install the update, you would still be able to downgrade and get back to where you are now.

Wonder how long it will/could be before revo crack the current HBOOT
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
You could run this ROM, which is based on the latest OTA release from HTC, so no OTA updates are needed. It is optimized, deodexed, and tweaked just a tad. I use it as my daily driver with great success. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12063-devrom12192011-stock-12853110-r2-deodexed-crtgpu/
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
I think possibly we've been thru this before, lol, but that ROM isn't the very latest... there has been a pretty big update since then that thus far is only available as an official OTA update package.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] HebrewToYou:
As yogi pointed out, this is indeed not the latest OTA released for the device. I'm fairly certain that the linked rom is just stock + security update.
