You dont need a SIM card to use wifi, apps, or things like that. Why you say that what message the smartphones gives to you ?
[General Questions and Answers] Univsoldur:
I also dont think u need any wifi to use developer mode on the phone for apps...if you hit setting and hit apps you will see development
[General Questions and Answers] Jade Eyed Wolf:
If you root the device, you can (backup first!) delete the contents of the /efs folder. This will scrub the IMEI of your device, and it will revert to an unbranded "generic" IMEI instead. Once you have done this, you can simply use an AT&T GoPhone SIM card on it without issue.
[General Questions and Answers] csgallagher:
Thank you. That's what I think I'll look into then because I can currently cope with GoPhone terms.
[General Questions and Answers] csgallagher:
Carrier splash screen loads then displays "No SIM card in Phone" with red ! warning icon and asks Please inseart a SIM card but I now get into settings tonight (wierd).

I think I have to try WiFi in a coffee shop or try some "official" WiFi hotspot for ATT to determine if the carrier imposes using their WiFi and only their WiFi.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
What? Wi-fi is wi-fi. The carriers do not make you use "their" wi-fi. You want to develop, but you are having problems with the very very basics here.
[General Questions and Answers] csgallagher:
Yea I know I said that right out I am a noob "in this context." I have no idea how the carriers have or have not modified Android to maintain control of the devices they load their branded modifications on.

Hence if a phone is "locked" I presumed a carrier could cripple the use before a SIM card representing a customer account was installed and configured to operate the phone further.

I also know what rooting does but not the effects of any changes to UI afterwards. Again, its been my presumption that part of operating the device is added by a carrier using some kind of mobile development framework that may or may not be available after rooting.
[General Questions and Answers] Kagadar:
Rooting doesn't change the framework. Its actually quite a simple concept: you add a superuser binary to the system ROM which the user has permission to execute. In order to control access to the binary, people generally install the superuser application off the market AFTER initially rooting their phone.

The trick is finding a way to write the new superuser binary to a read only file system.
[HTC Sensation] slam2001:
AS above i updated the Firmware supercid the works, (the none xe version of 4.0.3 works perfectly)

reread the rooting form and redownloaded the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip and installed at least 6 times no joy, installed busybox installer (wont work need super use)

is there an already rooted stock version as i have looked everywere and cant find it

the reason i want this it to custom mod it myself i know alot of people here have already put up there custom version but i want to do mine from scratch as its the best way to learn

cheers to all that help

Really no one will post a stock euro rooted ics for the xe 4.0.3

there was me thinking it was xda developers not il develop and you use it cus you have no other choice

Try using a newer version of root, like 3 since the one you're talking about is only for eclair and froyo.

Also, isn't virtuous stock already rooted?

Thank you for the info mate

I will give it a go

as for virtuous stock already having been rooted, all apps i use always asked for root tested with root check pro and it says not rooted

is there a link for the new root (or even a google hint to what the file is called?) file as ive been following (xl VipeR lx) [Guide] to Installing S-off, Unlocking, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on
[HTC Sensation] Skip-Breezy:
I don't know if it's the ROM itself, the battery or any other problem but every time my phone dies & I put it on the charge for a couple of minutes, I turn it back on & the battery level jumps up about 30%. What should I do about this?

i.e. I'm not running on the stock ROM.
[HTC Sensation] Awestrike:
It might have to do with the Sensation's issue with reporting battery levels accurately--sort of like how your phone stays at 100% for several hours before finally dropping down.
[HTC Sensation] johnerz:
Is it a stock battery or large capicity version, if the larger version there is an issue with some roms or phones recognising the battery correctly
[HTC Sensation] Skip-Breezy:
It's the stock battery that came with the phone...do I have to calibrate the battery?
[HTC Sensation] Bionic Beast:
One thing you could try is charging the battery to 100%, then booting into clockworkmod recovery, go to advanced, and click wipe battery stats. Then once the phone boots just unplug it and let it drain from normal use, and charge it to a hundred another 2-3 times and that should get the battery back on track. I did this after changing roms and it worked for me

I'm looking for a utility for Windows 7 that can make 150 copies of a single image and give them sequential names. I need it to work with .bmp images.

Does anyone know of such a thing?

Can't you just write a batch file to make 150 copies, numbered as required? Software seems overkill for this.

Kind of a pain in the ass to do though, google batch loops. Either way would be fine though as I'm guessing you only want to run it once
[Off-topic] Archer:
Yeah, it could be a pain, but how about this....

do files copies 001-010, then copy them and paste them 9 times. Then, using insert, go to the 2nd 001 file and go 1 down left 1 down left 1 down left 1 down left etc. 2 down left 2 down left etc.. You get the idea.

Then, when you get to 99, copy 001-050 and change the first character of all of them to a 1 in the same way. I bet it would take about 2 minutes.

Actually, if you had a text editor that would allow you to edit columns (usually alt, click and mouse drag) then you could do it even quicker!

But yeah, I wouldn't have suggested it that way if it was something that wouldn't be generic and could be used over and again, exactly the same way.

I never got into batch file scripting that much. I did a few zip making things, getting labelled source code from source safe and zipping up projects - things like that. I literally have no idea how to do a for next loop that counts from 1 to 150 though!

And I write software for a living :p

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkpollo:
Hi,

I have bought a second hand HTC desire and i would like to install a ROM.

After reading this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1293989&page=16

And this list of roms

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=809328

and 4-5 roms specs i am not sure which ROM to use.

I would like something that ensure estability, no lag, no FC and the best battery life.

I do not really care if it is pretty or not.

I have been reading also that increase the internal memory with the SD card is important, but i am not sure how much.

Which one do you recommend?

Thank you for your help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
My advice to you, is to flash a few ROMs and see which you personally like. Generally speaking, you can see from the amount of posts & page views a thread has as to how popular the ROM is, and obviously a popular ROM is popular for a reason.

There are a lot of different ROMs, AOSP, Sense 3.0, Sense 3.5 and now even ICS ROMs. Decide which you like the look of best and give them a trail run. There are no best and worst ROMs, some seem to work fine on one device and can be troublesome on another, it's the nature of the beast. Flash a few and see which is most comfortable for you. :)

I have been a user of MIUI-XJ for quite some time now. One gig is usually the recommended partition size for an SD card for any ROM, be it AOSP or Sense. I've used MIUI on a daily basis for a good 8 months or more now and it suits me down to the ground.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkpollo:
You are right, the problem is that the Desire is not mine, it is my girlfriend´s. :)

So, i need to choose one and pray that she likes it. :)

I think i am going to Revolution 3.0. Looks like is something will do what i need.

Another thing, i have seen that there is Data++ and A2SD+

Which one is better?

I have an 8Gb SD card, but it is class 2. Not sure if i will need a better one.

Thanks for your help
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
I use data ++, it will just dump all apps onto an EXT Partition you'll never need to worry about space, or moving apps etc.

Swyped from my HTC Desire using xda premium
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:
As for the card, I use a class six 8gb, class two might not be ideal, but then again, my wife can't tell the difference between a class two and a class ten, so it might not matter so much!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkpollo:
Well, the card will be this one, thats for sure. :)

Now to find one ROM and to choose between Data++ and A2SD+.

:)

Thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalavere:

Oxygen rom by adamG.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildcardspv:
yep, oxygen is best for stability, battery and everything just works. It looks simple but a 3rd party launcher can soon sort that out. A2sd is built in and you can download a dalvik cache to SD zip to flash to gain more internal space.

With this zip flashed and cm7r2 hboot i have around 25 apps installed and around 250mb free space. You'll need an ext3 or ext4 partition on your SD card before flashing.

Miui is nice but you'll get lags after a few weeks that piss you off. Oxygen all the way.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
I can highly recommend rootSU's dGB with ManU-Kernel (1.4). Never had better smoothness and battery life.

Sent from dGB with Transparent XDA App
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mlerota:
I'm using latest CM7 nightly 262 version over one month and it stable as it is original ROM. Lag can happen but it's only when some other app is causing the problem. Sometimes some apps just don't die and chew up CPU and that's when lag can happen. So I recommend "OS monitor" app that monitor your phone and evil apps. It's like "top" program on linux/unix. So if there's no evil apps there is no lag. For battery to go far as it could, you should *always* have mobile data switched off. If I don't use mobile data, just calls and some music. It can run for 48 hours without recharge.

try MildWild....it's plain simple but the speed rocks.

no need to flash any other stuffs aside from the ROM itself....unless of course you would want further customization...

Do not forget to partition your SD up to Ext4....I'm not sure if there's be an issue with a Class2 SD but if ever, just buy at least Class 4 or 6.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Trinition:
I'm trying to use Car Mode Control to artificially toggle Car Mode on my Skyrocket. It appears to work as my Car Dock Home v3 is launched, and the steering wheel icon appears in the status bar.

However, neither Locale's Locale Dock Condition plug-in, nor Tasker's dock mode feature seem to recognize this. But I've contacted the plug-in author and done plenty of web research and it all suggests it *should* be working. Thus, I wonder if it's Skyrocket-specific.

I love my Cobra Universal Mini Mount, but it doesn't activate car mode. So I'd like to launch an app to "toggle" car mode manually, and then have either Tasker or Locale do the rest (turn on blue tooth, turn off wifi, etc.).

Has anyone successfully accomplished this with a Skyrocket?

Sd tools?

I'm extremely dubious about the results obtained from SD tools. I recently bought a 16GB, class 10 Samsung card and got to testing it. I got almost identical results for the 16GB card as I did for the 8GB, class 2 card that came with phone, but I did notice a difference in the time each card took to complete the test so I timed them.

8GB Class class 2: write 87 seconds, read 27seconds.

16GB Class 10: write 51 seconds, read 7 seconds.

So going by time took the class 10 is a lot faster but not according to the figures from SD tool results. Maybe someone else could try and post their results. I know this is off topic but if SDtools doesn't give accurate results none of these posts are any good.
