[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Right now, I'm working on the HtcRoot project, and various offshoots of it. Essentially, I want to add the advantages of a custom ROM into stock ROMs and, where possible, without forcing people to reset their phones. Part of this process involves writing tools for my own use, some of which I also publish. For example, the HtcRoot Webserver has essentially replaced TouchXplorer for me, though TX used to be a standard part of my toolset.

Considering the existence of the Contacts Transfer app in the Nokia store, which uses Bluetooth to transfer contacts from other phones and appears to run on non-Nokia phones (yep, I used my own OEM Marketplace XAPs to get it), I'm pretty sure at least some level of access to Bluetooth is possible from a WP7 app (using native code, of course).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irfanindian:
Wow, that's a thrilling news :)

I'm not sure if you know but there are a lot of users who badly need this.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marek1:
yes, lot of people miss sending the files via Bluetooth,

So if you can add it as first priority it will be very helpfull

for all of us "geegs" which want to use WP7 platform

as geeg platform.

Will you be able to convert Junos Pulse client for winmo

to convert WP7 to run it in native mode?

Thanks for info.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaitanya91845:
Yes, you are right. The Contacts Transfer App is proof that transfer via bluetooth could be possible. And yes, I installed the Contacts Transfer app using your app :)

[HTC Desire S] [armitage]:
I'm sorry for opening a thread on this.

Usualy I try to read up on things a lot more and try to solve things on my own.

Unfortunatly this time,the more I read the more confused I get.

Anyway ,today I updated from my desire to the desire s and as probably always when you get a new device you start to think that with the old one it was all much easier.:D

Well long story short...

I already S-Offed my phone using the revolutionary method which obviously changed the hboot from 0.98.00002 to 6.98.1002.

Now I read that it is beneficial, for phones that have a M4G2DE eMMC,to upgrade the hboot to 0.98.2000.

(I know there a other reasons to flash this hboot, like beeing able to flash radios and what not through fastboot).

So far so good...Later on I read that there is already a newer hboot( 2.00.2002 ) that should be considered ,cause it should "future proof" your device.

So my questions whould be...

What should I flash?

Should I flash the 0.98.2000 and stick with it.

Should I start with the 0.98.2000 and then upgrade to the 2.00.2002?

and...

Do I have to flash these hboot using a zip file?

With my old desire there were many different hboots that changed the partition tables and I always flashed them through fastboot.

Is this possible with the above mentioned hboots aswell?

I think that it should be,but all I read about was only updating with zip files or adb.

Well I know this has all probably been answerd before,but if someone could take the time to help me out a little I'd really appreciate it.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Right now you do not need to change your hboot. Stay active on the forum...learn more about the peculiarities of this device and only contemplate changing core stuff after that. As of now, there is no distinct advantage of changing from the revolutionary hboot... You can try every ROM released yet, including yge ics ones just fine on your current hboot.

Beamed from the Dark Side using xda premium.
[HTC Desire S] [armitage]:
Alright then,thanks for your help.:)

Already tried the CM9,so did know that this works.

I just thought I'd be on the safe side when flashing the newer hboot as it was mentioned in many threads that I read today.

Anyway,sorry for bugging you with this... but could you please answer the question I had regarding,flashing these hboots via fastboot?

On the bravo I flashed radios,splash screens,hboots and all that via fastboot and never had any problems with that.

But it seems that in all threads that I read today,only the adb and zip method was mentioned when talking about flashing hboots.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
NP, you're not bugging anyone. The Desire S forums are generally a very friendly place, so don't sweat it. It's OK to ask questions.:)

As for your question, the answer is : Yes you can...

In general, for flashing anything on the DS, you have many options, like:

Fastboot

Android Flasher

PG88IMG.zip (must have been a different name on the bravo, but the concept is the same)

Read the INDEX thread by ben_pyett in the Dev Section and any and all guides you can. And please note the ONE thing you ABSOLUTELY should not do with the DS - Pulling Battery while the device is powered on. Trust me on this. If there's one thing that you remember from this conversation, i want it to be this one. Make this a sacred rule, and never break it. read more about this issue, do a search...you seem like a smart guy, you'll figure it out.

Cheers.

P.S. : Welcome to the Desire S family. :D
[HTC Desire S] [armitage]:
Ok thanks again and I will keep that in mind.

Although I already had to break this rule when I was checking for the hboot version,when the phone arrived.

In the original hboot,there were no options to power down the phone besides pulling the battery.

Hope that rule only counts when the phone is booting or completely booted into OS.

Whould the eMMC be immediately damaged,so that I whould have noticed a problem right away, or could I have already damaged it in someway that I will maybe notice later on?

So far I don't have any cache related error messages,so I hope/guess that didn't damage anything.:)
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
You won't be able to boot if your eMMC is fried. So you're obviously not there yet.

As for when it can happen, nobody knows, might even happen if you pull battery while in bootloader (remember, you're still powered on!)

To reboot from within hboot, select the option "RECOVERY" and then from there, power off or reboot. Alternately, you can use the three button combo (Volume up + Volume Down + Power button, press and hold all three simultaneously)
[HTC Desire S] [armitage]:
Well I didn't have any recovery on the phone then.

The recovery option was there but it only gave me a black screen with a warning sign on it.

I could have used (Volume up + Volume Down + Power button, press and hold all three simultaneously) method,but I didn't know about it back then.

In retrospect I should have read a little more before doing anything I guess.

But guess I got lucky that nothing bad happend so far.

Anyway,thanks again for you help I really appreciate it.

Have a good one,mate. :)
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
That "Black screen" with a warning sign IS the default stock HTC recovery (you weren't expecting to see a custom recovery there, were you!?:p)

If you wait a couple of seconds on that screen and then press the power and volume button, you'll be presented with recovery options, one of which is Reboot. It doesn't show up on its own, you need to coax it by hitting the volume and power button...
[HTC Desire S] [armitage]:
No lol,I wasn't expecting a custom recovery there.:D

But as I didn't know what the stock recovery locked like and I didn't know how to interact with it I just asumed that there simply were no real options to use.

Well guess that's just one more thing I learned today.:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
Hello,

I have the epic 4g touch rooted with starburst rom. I installed android wifi tether app and I am able to connect to the wifi from laptop, but i cant actually browse to any websites. I can ping from cmd prompt to sites. When I use sprint hotspot everything works fine. Also is there an app that will let me tether at 4g speed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
Is there a reason why you want to use the wifi-tether app and not the sprint hot-spot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
I wanted to tether at 4g speed, I thought I cant do that with sprint hotspot, also I have the unlimited data plan, but I am not sure if sprint hotspot costs money.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ctbearz:
3rd party tethering apps (ie, wifi tether, usb EasyTether, bluetooth tether) are not subjected to the 5GB Hot Spot Sprint limitation. The data used by these apps are seen as "phone data" which is unlimited, whereas Hot Spot data is limited to 5GB with overage charges/fees.

Am I right?

Plus... it's bad enough having the phone run on 4G now you want it to act like a wireless router transmitting over wifi to tether a laptop. HOT HOT HOT

I think 4G tethering is most efficient and "coolest" in temperature over USB Tethering. If you must tether wirelessly, then Bluetooth is probably better than wifi. Not as big of a battery drain.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
hey so i dont have bluetooth on my laptop.. i just use it at work on my laptop to stream music, netflix etc. so which thrid party app would be recommended for 4g. I get great 4g signal at my office. Also i get really really crappy speed with usb tethering like 069 dwn and .65 up
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s9amme:
what version of wifi tether are you using?

I'm using v3-beta-6. I can connect using 4g, browsing websites and such. But for some reason, the down steam speeds are capped at ~0.7Mbs when I run a speed test. On my phone, I get 10Mbs down. I know its using 4g because the ping time is much lower and my upload stream is 1.5Mbs.

On 3g, i'm only getting .85 Mbs down and 0.5Mbs up
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ctbearz:
Easytether app is what I use to tether over uab. works amazingly well with no slow down. I also use wifi tether beta 6 but not very often because it gets hot. Speeds are super fast for me over 4G USB tethering, like 8-10mbps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JS_racer:
i have the sprint hotspot hack working on my phone. that is the only reason i have root and stuff done to it. have to admit i have not used it yet, but my wifes nook color and my galaxy 10.1 sees it and it works great for the quick test i did.i needed infrastructure and got sick of fighting wifi teather(?)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
ok i am going to try easytether assuming i can get it from market. i tried barnicle tether as well and i get ping replies from lets say google.com. I still cant browse. I just think its so slow the sites times out. I am going to try the easy tether and see how that works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
I have tried 3 of the newest version from their site. All of them I get the same thing. It connects and i can ping and everything but none of the websites open. I tried using sprint hotspot (which only works at 3g) and i get about 1.2 dwn and .7up. I want to get the full 4g speed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
I am a little confused because I see the link posted for the 4g hotspot fix which has been out for quite some time now. Also as far as it causing issues with Sprint you can rest assure if that was the case it would be posted all over this community. I am not sure why your phone is not working properly with the wifi tethers but I can assure you that Sprint Hotspot on our phone works quite lovely. Also the data usage restrictions do not apply for phones but for actual Hotspot devices. Please go to the link listed above flash the hotspot mod and enjoy life..... It works I am on it right now....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
I just tried easytether. Installed it from market, followed direction and got it working. I got 8.17mb dwn and 1.34mb up. I am going to keep playing with it. Thanks everyone for helping out appreciate it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1109:
Actually the title says "plz help with 4g tethering". I had it working with sprint hotspot as well but not at 4g speed. I had tried other app android wifitether and barnacle with no luck. Thanks to ctbears I got easy tether working with 8mbdwn/1.34 up.

No prob man you got it working so rock on!

you're welcome :D enjoy your tethering!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I'm not sure what hot spot thread you were in but the hot spot hack works on 3g and 4g. And it reads now with 4g not help with 4g... I've used it on both ek02 and el29 with no issues. I hardly ever use sprints crappy 3g and I'm tethering fine. Also take into consideration the hot spot is infrastructure and can be access by more than just computers unlike the tether apps on the market which all are ad hoc...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Meant to edit my 1st post and I quoted myself.. Wow I must be smoking some good ish!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
I have Calk 2.8.1 which supports sprint 4g hotspot. But in reality, I can never get download speed past the 3g speed. Upload is fast but download seems to be capped to 3g speed a confirmed by other users. EasyTether blows them all away with 4g speed of 8-10 Mbps. But of course it is not wireless and does not support infra structure mode.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] osva:
Here's what I did to get full 4g speed while tethering via wifi..

Go to market and install filter proxy..

Open application, enable it and remember port number (Default is 8000)

Start wifi tethering..

Setup proxy in your browser, point it to your phone's ip address and port 8000 (if you use default)

Do this for http, https and ftp..

And you are all set.. Test your speed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
I can't seem to find the exact app. Will this work with Sprint Hotspot WIFI tethering or just the 4G Android Wifi Tether.

I just tested Android WifiTether 3.1beta 6 and it seems to pass the full 4g speed to connected device. I am losing 10% or less in 5 tests.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] osva:
What application you cant find?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
filter proxy was the app I couldn't find. Anyway, finally get WifiTether to work with Calk's rom. Just needed to install 3.1 beta6 and not the latest beta 11. WifiTether pass the 4g speed just fine without installing and configuring proxy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] osva:
Oh ok.. thats cool.. I'll try that..

thanks

PD. Does that version do Infrastructure mode? and security?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
ad hoc only. It has access control but I am not sure if that allows you to select a password or key.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
That's weird on 4G I get 8-10mb on the Sprint hotspot with the hack when I check thru speedtest.net.. I don't know if being stock rooted has anything to do with it seeing that you're on a rom. Maybe that rom isn't playing nice with the hack.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
Just turn on 4g at home and tested it again. I pulled 8-10 mbps on easytether pro and 1.6mbps on Sprint hotspot. Couldn't get wifitether to work for some reason. Speed was extremely slow on wifitether.

Good to hear that you can get the full 4g speed using Sprint Hotspot hack on a stock rooted phone. I thought you had to flash a custom rom with the hotspot hack and that rooted phone is limited to Android WifiTether. How did you get the hotspot hack on a stock rooted phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Adding my experience. I'm rooted and on Stock EK02. Installed Android Wifi Tether Beta 6 and it worked for both 3G and 4G. Installed Beta 11 and it didn't work. Installed Beta 7 and it worked for both 3G and 4G. I'm on Beta 7 now. Access Control works but I couldn't get security to work though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I'm stock rooted with cwm. I flashed the hotspot zip for el29 which you can get without a custom rom on the link posted in the first page. That's basically it. Then I decided I wanted the 1x symbol plus the toggles too so I flashed that mod too and it also comes with the hotspot. Its all working fine. PS don't let the EL29 non mention in the title fool ya its in there with the rest ;)

Sent from a few my SPH-D710 using XDA App
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
Thank you. I feel like an idiot since I thought I checked the development section already but couldn't find it. Don't think I am going to go thru with it since I am still running EG30 modem with Calk EL29 rom/kernel believe it or not. Didn't have a problem with the EG30 so never did flash any newer modem since. I might root the wife's phone since she is on official el29(modem/rom/kernel) and then flash that hotspot mod just to compare and give her free tethering. Didn't know prior to today that I did not need a custom rom to get hack Sprint hotspot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Let me know if you get a speed boost on your wife's phone since I'm a lil curious too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
I am monitoring the wife's phone after each update which also upgrade her modem. I compared her EK02 update and found no consistent evident that it is better than the EG30 modem that I am still on. I mean the phone is side by side doing simultaneous speedtest or one speedtest right after another. The result always vary but I can never rule out that one is better than another. There is just no conclusive evidence. That is why I never bother to upgrade the modem on my rooted phone. Now I have to do the test again since she has updated to EL26.

I seriously doubt that updating my modem will increase my Sprint Hotspot speed but I am waiting to see what others are reporting on Calk's 2.8.1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I didn't say updating modems should increase it just said maybe custom roms are not playing nice lol.. Anyways when I go home I'll take some pics of my laptop doing 8-10 on sprints hotspot. If I'm the only person getting those speeds might as well show them off lol :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
No I know exactly what you meant. I got a response from JohnCorleone and he is on Calk 2.8.1 and he is not getting past 2mbps. He has been using sprint hotspot on lots of other phones and roms and has never gotten past 2mbps. So he falls back on wifitether too when he needs more speed. I don't know if it is area dependent or if Sprint is purposely throttling me and John but I highly doubt it since I use less than 2gig on 3g and 4g combined.

You and another person on a different forum is reporting better than 6mbps and he is also on stock rom and rooted with the hotspot mod flash so you maybe right about some changes in the custom rom that is preventing the full 4g speed on connected device.

I am still leery about getting charge using Sprint hotspot since to me it would seem easy for Sprint to find out but so far no one has a problem. Easytether and PDAnet seems very stealthy if you have a usb cord nearby.

Is there a way I can delete a word that is part of the swype dictionary? I never used the word,, so it must be pre loaded in the default dictionary.

When I type K - quick reply for OK, K.D. Lang comes up every time. How stupid is that?

Never. Hate the *****....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] crookshanks:
I don't know why it would show up then, it's not part of the swype dictionary. To delete it, press K and let it pop up then hit space. Press on the word like you're going to edit it so your choices come up then press the swype key on the bottom left of the keyboard. It'll ask if you're sure about wanting to delete the word from your dictionary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BigGunsBK:
I tried that and I can't delete it. Let me be more specific - when I type K. (with the period) it comes up. Not when I do K[space].

Could you please try the K. (with period) and let me know if you get it. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] crookshanks:
So it does for me too. That's pretty funny.

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

Turning word suggestion off stopped that particular one from coming up after pressing "k" then "." but that doesn't delete it from the dictionary. Word suggestions still come up when you swype just not when you type individual letters. I know it's not a fix... But it's something.
