I have a 10w44, and I unlocked it multiple times without any problems.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifo171:
but he has 11w41, it means that his phone was produced a year after yours :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhatWhatInTheButt:
Brainfart :) For some reason I thought it was the older, not the newer versions, which have problems with bootloader, but, you're right, it's the newer ones :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] In3rDm0RetHeNu:
Is there a way to tether the droid charge without using any app just using the regular stock service.
[Verizon Droid Charge] sasquatch080:
Pay for the extra hot spot service. I don't believe there's another way around it if you don't root and install wireless tether app. 3.0 pre12 is best btw.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jager420:
Foxfi. It does not require root and i have used it on fp1 update
[Verizon Droid Charge] In3rDm0RetHeNu:
Which is the most reliable I will root and install whatever is needed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jager420:
you can never go wrong with wireless tether 2.0.7 which requires root...Foxfi is stable for me and doesnt require root...give either one a try
[Verizon Droid Charge] stebomurkn420:
foxfi

i would def go with foxfi app... its the beeeeessssttt in my opinion...
[Verizon Droid Charge] DROID3R:
Nop foxfi sucks.. svtp tether hopspot app trumps all.
[Verizon Droid Charge] khalilcr:
If you are rooted by now:

Use WIFI Tethering by OPENGARDEN .... Really easy setup + Widget works great.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jager420:
I haven't had any problems with foxfi ...maybe its the user :what:
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
I tried them all and have a hard time to decide which one! I guess if it works for you then you should stay with it. One may worked for one but not the others, probably depend on your setup. Example, the none root required, will work great for none rooted users, but it make no diff to us, cause we all rooted here.
[Verizon Droid Charge] In3rDm0RetHeNu:
I heard there is file such as tethering2036.apk or tethermanager2036.apk and if you delete it will it work is this true? I do not have the phone with me now so I can not check.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
- SOLVED! Flashed a different ICS Rom along with Semaphore kernel and everything works again! :)

Hey all!

I have a BIG problem... Yesterday I flashed SlimICS 2.9 on my friend's Galaxy S device through CWM. Installation went fine and system booted up OK. I quickly noticed that there was no mobile network available and I went to check the IMEI as I was suspecting the worst. The IMEI showed up as blank on the phone...

I checked the /efs folder and all the files were present (nv_data.bin and such). I also noticed that there was a /efs backup on the internal sdcard. I tried overwriting the files from the backup to the /efs folder on the root to no avail. Upon deleting the /efs folder or any files in the folder, they are automatically placed back. Why does that happen?

I cannot use the phone's usb port since it's broken.. so all has to be done from within the phone. (External sdcard still functions, ofcourse).

Spent a lot of hours searching and reading - I'm desperate!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ishangoyal:
There is an app "Mobile Odin" .. us this to flash stock firmware on your friend's phone.. I haven't used this app myself but it should work.. you can download the stock firmware from sammobile.com .. once you flash the stock firmware your IMEI number should be restored... then you can try flashing rom once again

PS: Please don't offer money like this.. donating to the developers of Roms and apps is enough.. they are the ones doing the main stuff..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
Didn't know that Mobile Odin existed! Seems like a great program.. I installed it and upon opening it tells me that ''A compatible device was detected, but with unexpected partition layout. Mobile ODIN cannot operate. This is a common error on CM and MIUI ROMs on some devices.''

What ROM would I flash through CWM to get this app to work for me? Is Mobile ODIN incompatible with ICS?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
UPDATE:

I flashed a different ICS Rom, Codename 1.5.6, and now the IMEI shows up when dialing *#06#! I was also able to unlock the SIM!

EDIT:

I was able to call! However Data connection does not work! Even with the right APN settings... Would this be caused by the firmware?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lawrrer:
dont worry,i had the same bug.you have to flash another kernel,Glitch,or Semaphore for example...then you will get data connection:-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
Yes this is what worked for me. Figured this out like 5 mins before you posted. :P

Thanks for the reply, though!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
I've been reading about CM9, AOKP and CNA. I know that AOKP has the same buglist as CM9 since it's kind of based of it. But I still don't understand what's the difference between AOKP and Codename Android. What's different in them?

Also, are those 2 better or not than CM9?

I appreciate any answers!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Both are very similar, try them out and see which suits you better.

AOKP has rom control which allows various mods and tweaks and quite useful. Battery percentage, lockscreen tweaks things like that.

I think CNA has something similar too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Ah, so deep down, they're pretty much the same?

If they both had those features, why are they separate? (separate as in, why isn't there just AOKP or CNA and not both?)

[Dell Streak 7] EwanG:
My Streak 7 is mainly for texting these days, and it occurred to me that since I have it with me all the time it might be useful if I could make the Swype keyboard take the whole screen and tether it via Bluetooth to my 10" tablet?
[Dell Streak 7] TheManii:
Hardware wise, yes as you can already pretend to be a sixaxis and pair it with a PS3, software wise, i dont believe so.

Very least it obviously needs to be an external app as android cant do it on it's own. There might already be an app for it, but I'm pretty sure there's no free ones.

I wanted to use my venue as a bt headset with ventrilo but that doesnt exist at all, and it's conceptually the same thing; using the h/w in an android device and pairing it with another device.
[Dell Streak 7] EwanG:
Wouldn't mind paying for an app, and as we get to where tablets are moving into their second and third generations, I would think an app that lets you use your "old" tablet for another purpose would have a growing audience.

If anyone knows of such an app, please let me know :-)

Just got a modded play store apk from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1554338 and tryd it on my unrooted kindle fire and it ... WORKED!!! Almost after I tryd to download anything it said "app can not be found". So I think with a little more work this could really work and help alot of unrooted users.

Come on guys this really has potential to help a lot of people out!
[Kindle Fire General] jmcoffey:
Why did you need a modded one? The actual play store works fine..
[Kindle Fire General] Raiden619:
Same for me.

It actually updated the market app.
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
It probably wont work though because google vending services need special r/w permissions
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
I tried it right before I rooted and it says server error when I try to login
[Kindle Fire General] jmcoffey:
If your kindle is rooted it works fine. Just root to install then unroot.
[Kindle Fire General] roketteere:
I don't see y you would root then unroot just for the market.

Well maybe if you are afraid to void your warranty then maybe you would.

But I say root and flash away lol.

But that is just me so pay no attention to me.

I was just putting my 2 cents in.

Enjoy your custom play store :cool:
[Kindle Fire General] shravbits:
im just gonna root and unroot for market. well that is, if market will work...

i heard alot of people talking bout the server error and even i experienced it with play store before root
[Kindle Fire General] gruuvin:

- atm this is amazon mp3 and the kindle app

if you accidentially updated one of it simply go to settings - applications and select amazon mp3 or kindle - select uninstall updates - no need to restore a backup

hope this helps ...

While it work I have never gotten keys to sync w/ the screen after a reboot. I have to reset it again. Has anyone got it to sync all the time?
[Motorola Droid X2] fitchy720:
mine does.. maybe i'm lucky. sorry i can't be of any more help.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
So you run keyboard backlight controller and the 2 top boxes checked and the bottom unchecked. So the keys dim w/ the screen. And on a reboot the keys are still in sync w/ the screen?
[Motorola Droid X2] 6Flip9:
Maybe u have to make sure the app is on ur internal card. Most of the time if I have a program that resets on restart that is what to blame ;-D
[Motorola Droid X2] fitchy720:
No, the top two are unchecked, and the bottom is checked. And yes, it automatically syncs every time
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
In your case the lights are set to be off with or without the screen! There is no sync'ing.

I was asking if anyone got the keys to be on WITH the screen & remain so after a reboot. The 2nd option stops its action unless you toggle it again.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
If all else fails, get an Otterbox case. You'll never see those lights again lol. That is the only thing I hate about this case. I actually WANT to see my buttons glowing.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Lol. I am talking bout keeping the key lights on/off as the screen is on/off. Our phone light sensor does not do it's job very well & you pick up the phone in the dark & you cannot tell you have the wrong end of it cuz the damn lights are off. "Keyboard backlight CONTROLLER" LOL people read the op but not each post.

BTW I use the impact (rubber only) otterbox & I cut out the key overlays so the keys are exposed.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Same case I have. Does cutting out the keys compromise the structural integrity of the case much? If not, I'm about to go grab my xacto knife and start slicing :eek:
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
It's maybe a bit looser but ok. I went very near the edge molding line. I went "thumb room". So go slow. But w/o the battery door even, it works great.
[Motorola Droid X2] Arbybear:
Okay, I finally got it to work! I haven't seen those lights since March!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gsantovena:
Good day everyone, when I connect my tf101 to my tv through hdmi, everything goes well until I try to watch a video. The video shows in the tv but not in my tablet. That's not the real issue but when the video I'm trying to watch has subtitles, those show in my tablet but not in the tv. Anybody has the same issue?

I have a tf101 with ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] snekoza:
I am dealing with the same issue. The only way to have the subs on the hdmi device is with MX player while SW decoding option selected, then the hdmi output is a clone of the tf101 screen, however I find it unfortunate as the video in SW decoding mode is not as smooth as in HW mode, I believe its due to lower framerate, however at the moment it the only workaround I found.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gsantovena:
Thanks for the tip, I will try it. I hope they fix this.

Work also with BSplayer lite, the same setup - SW decoding.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] jjj133:
Hello everyone!

I just purchased a SGT 7.0 Plus. I am trying to sync my PC with Docs to Go 3.0. Updated everything to current versions, checked DTG website, restarted devices, updated Kies, etc, etc. I keep getting 2 errors.

First error says it took to long to sync or there was an error.

Second error says they are already paired and I need to delete from devices.

I am able to use my SD as a mass storage device in explorer but I can't get this thing to sync. Not rooted yet but soon. Can anyone help me with this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] pegashus:
Trouble syncing GT 7.0 Plus and Docs-to-Go

I had the same problem trying to sync, and the same error messages. When I retried to connect, the Docs-to-Go desktop said the GT7+ was already connected, to remove the desktop profile on the Android, and reconnect. But it didn't show up anywhere on the GT7+!

Then I thought of a way to get my file to my laptop: I simply opened a window to the file and dragged it to my laptop! [My Computer --> GT-6210 --> Tablet --> documents (filename.doc)]

I found it best to use Samsung Kies in order to do this (I connect my GT7+ to my laptop using Kies and the supplied USB/power cable), or find some other way to connect the two computers. I suppose one could use a USB flashdrive with the connector, or remove the microSD card and read the file from that into another computer.

Dataviz technical support states that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 can not be synced to their desktop; I assume they didn't have a 7+ to test, but it's the same story. I'm going to keep on using Docs-To-Go on my Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, and dragging my files onto my laptop to edit and print. Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] jjj133:
Actually got a reply back from dataviz. Said since Samsung has altered the mtp transfers it won't work. They are looking into it vmbut cannot guarantee a solution. Hopefully they do. I have a work around for now but the sync isbthe best part of docs to go. We will see in time I guess.

Here is the firmware currently shipped with official Italian XPS.

It seems outdated now but the .67 has roaming problems in Italy.

It's been tested and is full working

It was made by our friend Airfax after a lot of efforts and reading here on XDA.

Thanks to Doomlord, Bin4ry and all other hereand obviously, Airfax

Hei Here we get nervous for non english posts, and I agree, so please next time put also a translation even if bad done is a good thing.

now also the uk .67 had this roaming options but I Had signal lost sometimes without national roaming enabled. Try it maybe the custom number for italy is good. And please refer here or elsewhere we can read.

Mannaggia qui si incavolano per i post non in inglese, per piacere metti almeno una traduzione alla buona, immagina quando vediamo quelli in cinese...

Tu avevi la rom ita come la nostra? se si provala che se va bene ci fai il dump come spiegato su Telefonino. La .67.uk mi costringeva a tenere abilitato il roaming nazionale se lo disabilitavo si bloccava la ricezione ogni tanto.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] NightSky256:
How can it be that a particular software revision has roaming problems "in italy" but in the rest of the world there are no roaming problems ? roaming is the same in italy as in frace as in india...

if you asserted at the problem with H3G-Italy it's due to an IMPROPER roaming use by that company, and an IMPROPER 3G network configuration by H3g-Italy.

There has been other problems with other phones...

the phones, to save battery, try to limit the network connection to 2G connection, and H3g-ITALY HAS NOT 2G CELLS ! so the phone starts to roaming to another italian company that correctly configured 2G/3G Cells.

It's a phones problem that this behavior should be user enabled or disabled, it's a BIG H3g problem it the network sucks... H3G-Italy cost less than other, but what is the real quality of service offered ?

Backing to phones... many phones had this problem with H3G once on the italian market. Just wait they will make a fix ad-hoc for italy...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] olaf63:
I've reported feedbacks from italian forums, me too I've had problems whith Wind company, I had to let enabled national roaming while it is not normally enabled. With national roaming disabled I had signal lost many times and had to restart radio. The roaming menu of the .67 is also different from this in .62.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marko68:
You can be sure that roaming problems are not only with H3G, but with every operator. Many many people have issues with the .67 firmware......so probably could be nice to say thank you, instead to talk just for criticize......:mad:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] NightSky256:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] olaf63:
not yet, they will release because it's the .62 upgrade (i'm guessing), i'm too on the lebanon unrooted one and it's very good and also with no minor problems. I choosed it because with less bloatware, but if you need some preinstalled software you can install the Singapore or the Spain/Portugal ones.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Roman91:

i dont understand if .73 is a sbable firmware that will be released for all, or it's a sort of beta version, released in some countries for testing.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] denaz:
I'm already on .73 fw, but not the italian one.

I'd like to try to install the official one for Italy.

It's right to downgrade to this fw and then reupdate with .73?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] NightSky256:
there must be no problems in downgrading... no bootloader upgrade, and no flash memory reallocation between versions won't broke anything...

btw years of experience in firmware update pkgs tells me that it isn't always a good idea to downgrade a firmware...

firmware package are tailored to UPGRADE a firmware... downgrading could work as couldn't...

just a simple example...

firmware xxx.1 has 3 files... a b and c

firmware xxx.2 has to alter file a and be, so the update package touch a and b.

firmware xxx.3 has to alter b and c, so it touch b and c leaving a as is...

if you downgrade xxx.3 to xxx.2 it will alter a and b and leave c as is...

so you will find a xxx.2 with a and b correct and c from xxx.3...

so i think it's really better to have a .73 ITALY dump and flash it over a .73 [other country] with all wipe settings enabled.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] denaz:
Neither a repair from pc companion can do the trick?

I'm doing a full backup with it atm to try
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] olaf63:
Mmmm..... but here we have the same android version 2.3.7, it's more like swapping the same rom, so I don't think it's dangerous. Maybe a wipe is a good thing, but not mandatory.

If someone can post an FTF dump here on XDA I could change mine without many flashes.

Ciao
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] NightSky256:
i don't think so it's dangerous, sure you won't brick your phone but you may fall in a bootloop or something like that and you will come out only wiping... that's becouse of the problem i've explained before.

the safe mode, without a .73 FTF is wipe and reflash old .62 then update to .73
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Roman91:
better not risk it, I'm waiting too for the ftf :D:D:D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cecco1970:
I'm sorry, but I have no idea what procedure should be done .. the problem also because I upload remain with the internet traffic slow and limited.

Mi dispiace, ma non ho idea di quale procedura si debba fare..inoltre il problema rimarrebbe con l'upload perchè ho internet lento e a traffico limitato.

I also thought it would work for a downgrade to recognize the region and then with PC companion is as it should install everything, with everything working and without brick

Anch'io ho pensato che potesse funzionare un downgrade per far riconoscere la regione e poi con pc companion si installa tutto come dovrebbe, con tutto funzionante e senza brick

Sorry for my english, i used google translate :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] denaz:
