[General Questions and Answers] :
Ok, so had it unlocked, but running stock. Ran fine, then one day it stopped working and got stuck in a boot loop on the google screen. Managed to get it into CWM and then wiped, after lots of tries, and back to CM7 and unlocked. Then backed it out to stock and locked the bootloader(was planning on giving it to a friend who doesn't like to play with phones like that). But now it gets stuck on the google screen. Can get to fastboot, but if I do fastboot oem unlock it just has "..." and holds for hours(until I manually stop it) and then says it failed too many links. Can't get it unlocked, can't get it to boot into anything usable(either fastboot or the google screen and no further) and I'd really like to turn it back into a tablet for the kids to use since I've moved on. ADB devices shows error device not found but fastboot devices shows the serial number. I just really need to know how to unlock it so I can get it back and running. I think what screwed it up was I flashed it back to the way it came locked bootloader and then it said there was a OTA update, I said ok, downloaded it and when it rebooted it wouldn't go past google screen or past fastboot screen. If I try and do the recovery I get the triangle with exclamation point(yellow) and if I hit the power button a few times it tries to reboot and hangs. And yes, when I do the unlock the screen comes up, I move it to yes, hit power and then it freezes. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

after a while the this:

suggestions?..
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
Do you have your phone turned on? If I remember correctly you need the phone booted into the rom to push the update.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Well, did you verify that the cable was plugged into your phone? And that the other end was plugged into your computer? Lol, jk.

I haven't followed that guide, but did you try putting your phone in fastboot mode to run the ruu? If not, try that. Just boot to bootloader, then select fastboot. Plug your phone in, and verify that it says fastboot usb on your screen. Then try the ruu again, it should work. Good luck
[HTC EVO 3D] mike_flo94:
Yes i have the phone turned on, then i run the ruu1.3.....exe in my pc and it goes to the process, my phone actually restar in a black screen with white letters in the middle "HTC" and then nothing happend
[HTC EVO 3D] mike_flo94:
I need to have my phone on. The cumputer is supossed to detected. If i i go right to the bootloader, the ruu.exe wont start
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
It will run from fastboot mode. I've done it more than once. Not in the bootloader, but from fastboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
I'm guessing you haven't bother to search the error on Google? I just did and got a lot of threads on this

is the ruu a exe file or a zip file and also thats automated program and you had to miss a step in order for it to fail at the end if i were you i would go over the steps again because somthing is missing big time

whats the best screen protector to use for under $10?

i don't want it to scatch easily and i dont like fingerprints
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] striderxda:
I bought one for 4 months that's a "no name" one i paid it 5€, and there was no scratch until i went to the beach...i got one little scratch now, but not a lot of fingerprints. Little bit difficult to place, but good quality after all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] guy7685:
if you dont like fingerprints you can buy matt screen protector,

but its not as clear as the clear SP's...

the finger prints are bearable.

I'm more fond of the thick&clear ones, you can but several with 5$ or so on ebay
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] -star-:
I bought 2 for 6$ on amazon, but they were crystalclear from mumbi. The screen looks darker and not so colorful with the matt protectors.

You could try a case with special microfibre inside.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] vafels:
I'm using the cheap clear ones that you can easily find on ebay or dealextreme.

The usually go for 1$ or less with free shipping worldwide, so you can try them yourself without risking too much money.

Just make sure they look right in the product image.

I personally hate how the matt ones make the screen look, you should probably try to see one yourself before buying.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] deadgamer:
I bought about 5 protectors on eBay for less than $1. I'm using the same one for as long as I can remember. I have the phone for almost 3 years now and the screen has 0 scratches to date.

So unless you're looking for some anti-glare/fingerprint protector that makes your screen lose quality and look like crap, don't waste time and money looking for a special $15 protector when a $0.20 one can hold for months and do the job just as well.

That's from my experience at least.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] maliulusal:
matt ones are awesome if you only concern about fingerprints, but they are killing this beautiful AMOLED screen. so darker :s
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] senotrius:
+1.I got mine from local shop for the above mentioned price.that was a 5.2inch version.cut down,use the rest for another gadget!

I lime the BoxWave ClearTouch ones, simply because i hate glare :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] yinduyun:
I don't know if it'll suit your needs and price requirement, but in my experience, Brando Ultraclear is an incredibly good screen protector. Very accurate cut, no adhesives, fairly solid and scratch resistant, surface feels smooth enough to fool you into thinking you're actually touching the glass underneath....

I've had one of these on my phone for over a year now and I have yet to see any wear. Just take care not to trap any dust underneath when applying it.

Also, best way (that I have found so far) to apply this kind of quality screen protector - get yourself two strips of adhesive tape long enough to go once around your index fingers and then a little. Put them around the tips of your index fingers, adhesive side facing out. Use one to touch a corner of the screen protector - it is MUCH more easy to handle this way, and the tape comes off the screen protector without leaving a trace. Use the piece of tape on your other finger to remove any specks of dust left on the screen or the sticky side of the screen protector - don't worry, if you have a good screen protector it'll just pick up the dust and come right off again.

You can also use this to lift up the protector again in case you did manage to trap dust or have to correct the positioning.

Edit: As with all clear screen protectors, finger prints are something of an issue.... They come off easy enough if you just wipe it on whatever piece of cloth you may have available (pants, t-shirt, napkin, whatever) but if you don't want any in the first place, you may want to look into the Anti-Glare screen protector, which has a slightly roughed surface.

Either can be bought here or from various retailers -> http://shop.brando.com/search.php?keyword=i9000+screen+protector&Submit=Product+Search

Everyone who bought and will buy the lumia 900 by April 21st will get a $100 credit in their AT&T bill :)

[Nokia Lumia 900] trueblog:
Does this applies to Rogers ?
[Nokia Lumia 900] philote:
Info from the comments:

Q: What about customers who got it without a contract??

A: (Phil at Nokia) No need to have a contract, just as long as you have service with AT&T.

Q: I was planning on getting two more Lumia 900s tonight for my family (I got mine yesterday). Will the reimbursement apply to all three purchases (3x$100)

A: (Jeppe @ Nokia) Yes

Q: Are the new Lumia 900 with updated software already in the stores

A: (Jeppe @ Nokia) We don't have an exact date for when the updated phones will arrive in stores but any phone can be updated when the new software arrives on or around April 16th

Q: Does this extend to those of US who purchased our Nokia from Amazon Wireless

A: If you bought it with an AT&T service plan, you don't have to do anything. The $100 credit will automatically be applied towards your account.

Q: When and How do I get the software update?

A: (Jeppe @ Nokia) We're expecting the software update to roll out on or around the 16th through Zune on Windows and Windows Phone Connector on Mac.
[Nokia Lumia 900] JonnieLasVegas:
I didn't care about Nokia, one way or another until I got my 900. I fell in love with it immediately! Then I see how they have support setup to help school new people on the OS. Now you find out that they own up to problem, sending out a fix promptly (or offer to swap phones), and also giving back $100 to make amends. These guys just earned a new, loyal customer.
[Nokia Lumia 900] geekaren:
Nice swift response by Nokia. Kudos to them!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] Deleted member 2842059:
So an off contract 900 now costs $349??
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
Go figure. For at least the last 2 yrs we've had to beg and beg for info and rollouts of update, not only on AT&T, but every carrier. Now Nokia comes out and does this. Bravo.

Sign me up for the Nokia WP 8, and Tablet, sight unseen. People need to support a company willing to support them.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Deleted member 2842059:
Most of the comments are saying a credit with 60 days on your AT&T bill. I still haven't seen an official memo stating this is also for the off contract ones as well. I'd be all over this.

Imagine bundling this offer with the free accessories offer. One of the best launched offers in recent years.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Rcf686:
This is exactly what an OEM should do. They owned up to an issue on some phones and got a fix taken care of and even thos eof us who donet have the issue benefit from it. This is why so many of us were looking forward to Nokia releasing their Windows Phones. This is what builds customer loyalty.
[Nokia Lumia 900] mistergreen:
What I don't get is how Nokia is getting this pushed through so fast, yet those with older phones that didn't force update are still waiting for the patch Microsoft has had out for months to fix the on screen keyboard and other security issues.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
I think if you think too hard about it, you'll just get pissed. Nokia is not stupid. I would wager they had something in the contract that allows certain things to be upgraded or updated without approval from anyone. A test pass at AT&T may take several weeks. So, if, IF, IF, they get this out next week....we can annoint them as Gods. Otherwise....we better hold off on sainthood.
[Nokia Lumia 900] eknutson:
But it's a FW push, so it's more up to Nokia, no?
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
My understanding is....AT&T owns the device and the network. Any push would require their approval...even if its rubber stamped.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nextonline:
I'm an at&t customer, but I don't have a plan, I'm on prepaid and got this phone off contract. How can I get the rebate?
[Nokia Lumia 900] harolds:
Same here, would like to know this as well.
[Nokia Lumia 900] sifusky:
I believe this credit is only for AT&T customers. It would be applied to the monthly bill, not actual cash credit I presumed.

I'm one of those unlucky few that can't connect to the data network at all. Tried all the soft/hard reset. No luck.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nextonline:

[Nokia Lumia 900] acles003:
I just switched to AT&T in December but if they let me upgrade to the Lumia, I would strongly consider it. I like Android but something about Windows Phone appeals to me. It just seems like a smooth OS.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Deleted member 2842059:
Been looking around for the answer as well. I'm on contract but ages away from my upgrade. I'll happily take one for full retail but I want the $100 credit. So far nobody has come through with an answer.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 21stNow:
This question was answered in the comments section on the conversations.nokia.com site. No-commitment purchasers will receive the credit, as well.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Look at the 3rd post it has good Q&A from Nokia forums.
[Nokia Lumia 900] LSUtigers03:
I assumed that this would be the case but when I went to my local AT&T I was told you have to get the phone on contract. I'm going to go back and talk to someone else and see if I can get it.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aneftp:
I emailed AT&T customer service yesterday for confirmation.

They already noted my account for $100 service credit next billing cycle. So I have it in writing from AT&T!

Nokia makes good quality high end phones (as well as low end phones). I am glad they were prompt in their response.

I have a feeling because of Microsoft subsidies, Nokia is getting their way with AT&T in terms of pushing software out quickly. AT&T is in a symbolic relationship with Microsoft so they aren't getting in the way.

Anyways it's usually written into the contract between oem and carrier what softwares are "essential" and need to be pushed out ASAP. And losing data connectivity is an "essential" software fix that needs to be pushed out without much of carrier interference.

AT&T is in their best interest not to slow the process down since they would face not only a huge public embarrassment but also a class action lawsuit. The reason is simple. While they cannot guaranteed data speeds. They forced data plans when using smartphones and if no data is available due to software issue than the problem needs to be fixed ASAP.
[Nokia Lumia 900] mmian:
you don't actually need to go into the store, nokia will automatically put the $100 in your ATT account. Wait 2 weeks, if you don't get the credit call Nokia...not ATT, cuz ATT are generally d**ks
[Nokia Lumia 900] LSUtigers03:
So if I go to AT&T today and buy the phone off contract Nokia will know that my account purchased the phone and credit my account? Even though the super intelligent people at AT&T say otherwise and say I have to buy it on contract?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kimck99:
Hi, is there anything one has to do to receive the $100 credit? It this credit automatically applied or do you have to call in customer service?

Thanks

EDIT: Oops. I guess I didn't read post #24. On a side note, I was on a call with AT&T customer service and when I asked about the $100 credit, she went on and on to ask me "when did it start happening, so you master reset your phone, etc." to which I said no, I did not master reset my phone I had to clear browser history, add the APN, power off/on. To which she said again, "you began to have problems on the 6th and you were able to resolve by master resetting".

Long story short, when I asked about the $100 credit, she goes away and comes back and says that "since you have had issues since the 6th, we will prorate your data plan cost and credit you back $x.xx." Needless to say, calling customer service didn't help trying to find out about the $100 credit. Sigh....

Question.

I am a longtime user of Xbmod-yuki roms and sadly he is no longer developing. I was wondering if I load a HD20 romsam I basically doing a fresh install? Or would it be similar to a cab update and keep my apps msgs tones etc? I know it is a silly question and I apologize if it posted I did search around. If it ends up being a clean install what is the best backup program to then reload msgs, photos, xaps etc?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bigfilsing:
Hi.

Yes it will be a fresh install. All the ROMS i know of require a hard reset after initial install anyway

Photos will remain in Zune ( Collection) so no issues there.

I have tried a few ways to back up and restore before ( when i've tried out various roms) but I've never had much luck. Maybe its just me , my PC or HD2 :)

It kind of makes sense to install fresh apps anyway then at least you know everything is "clean" with your new rom. Can be a bit boring time but doesn't take so long in the end.

Good luck

I keep on looking at the Yuki thread and looking at the 'soon...' messages but I moved on also.

For backing up the HD2 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1227476&highlight=wp7appbackup

Is the best and when you put the XAP's into the backup folder the utility will re-install all the XAP's and restore all the data in one hit.

Believe me its absolutely fantastic but it wont do your SMS messages and I have not had much luck with the sms backup/restore tool.

So I was the one who posted hella long ago requesting another version of the Star Wars bootanim using footage from the new Star Tours ride, sorry I never followed up on it xD.

Unfortunately, since the ride's in 3D, any video someone's taken of it is also in 3D, and even if you somehow found a way to decode it back, I don't think there's any way you could really use a hand camera's footage. Unless you're just looking at it and making it from scratch, in which case, here's a YouTube video someone took. I was thinking of replacing the Space Mountain backdrop with the footage at 1:35 of the jump to lightspeed.

Alternatively, a purely Space Mountain one with no R2 would thrill me too (I'm a Disneyphile, yeah, I know, how strange that must sound).

Of course, you could be like, "hell no, I'm not doing all that work for some random super needy jerk who ain't gonna give me anything in return :mad:" and I'd be like, ":( d'okay, thanks anyway, you're still awesome :p"
