[General Questions and Answers] ghatothkach:
hi

I got this thing called TC-200, which is basically a product of some mom-pop cell phone development house with no support of any kind...

http://www.umibuy.com/tc-200-mini-phone-children-s-positioning-association-found-device.html

https://www.google.com/?q=tc-200+mini+phone

These are the only operating instructions!!!!

Has anyone tinkered/used this device... any users from china who have tried using this.. any info would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried to use this with a tmobile-USA sim, the phone chimes as soon as you insert the sim card apparently stating that it is working or so, but none of the operating instructions work...

Let me know..
[General Questions and Answers] ghatothkach:
hi

Anyone...

Anyways, for the guys in US who do get to this post from a search engine, please note that I am thoroughly dis-satisfied with my purchase. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE until we know how to use it. The instructions above don't work and there is no way to debug the device...

As I get time I will open the device and post whatever I find somewhere on this forum. From the looks this is a very good device to drop in the bag/pocket of your 3-10 year old for emergency...

[if any one has the contact information of the manufacturer of the device from China, let us know)
[General Questions and Answers] gr8899:
Mine works fine. But you need to disable PIN check on the SIM card for it to work. I found that quite obvious as there are no way to enter a PIN on the tc-200.

Only major disappointment is that it does not have a GPS, as listed where I bought it from. It only uses GSM bases to give a localization. Will probably still use it. Really small, but I would really like to have a similar device with GPS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmk4412:
hello, i have recently encountered a blank colored pixelated screen after flashing a new rom. This only stays on the screen for a second or so, I havent noticed this before and was wondering if others were seeing this too, or if this is normal? wondering if i do a complete restore if that would help or if its not necessary.any feedback would be helpful. thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
At what point does it come on?

A pixelated screen could be from overclocking the GPU, as some kernels do.

But not just...randomly displaying a screen.

Try another kernel if it comes up frequently.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinoiryder:
I have been searching for a week now on how to root my xoom and but i am getting nowhere..

I am currently running stock os.. ICS 4.0.4 IMM76..

I was able to unlock my zoom via adb

I was trying to push recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img via adb, it will go through the process but after reboot I can not find superuser or busy box installed.

Please help or direct me to right path to get my xoom rooted.

thank you.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
You push the recovery through ADB like you were doing....but you boot in to recovery on the Xoom and install the root "update.zip" from there.

That installs su, Superuser.apk and busybox.

You were on the right track...you were just skipping a step. The link that had the recovery.img file you downloaded should also have the root "update.zip" as well.
[Acer Iconia A500] knightofthe9:
I am looking to over clock my a500 with the flexreaper rom. I have searched for kernels time and time again and all I can find is working for HC not ics.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Not at this time. It requires Acer to release kernel source which I don't believe they have yet. Then, the Devs will have to work with it.

I'm sure it will happen soon though. Acer started to release ICS Official updates to the 500, but stopped after 2 days as it was bricking a lot of tablets.

Your best bet, is Civato's "tweaked" kernel. Isn't OC'd, but gives better performance.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aslan93:
Went to phones4u today and saw that had received two devices this morning :) asked them to play around with one, its pretty cool... 460 gbp for now ) will you get one? :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] Tuffcheez:
Soon as my upgrade is due I'm making the jump.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Freypal:
Due an upgrade now. It's gonna be the 800 or 900. Need to hold a 900 for myself before making the decision, have a feeling it's gonna feel too big.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aslan93:
You easily get used to bigger phones :) I have a htc one x and loving it! Especially the screen, can't even look at smaller screens like iPhone or lumia 800 tbh.. lumia 900 is alright and its not that big :) also the screen there isn't pen-tile like in the 800 which is definitely a big plus :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] erzhik:
Looks like European Lumia 900 comes with Tango on board.
[Nokia Lumia 900] aslan93:
Yep it has tethering and the market has been replaced with nokia market (at least the icon)
[Nokia Lumia 900] AndyFZ1S:
Awaiting delivery of mine, Probably wont get it until Monday now, I did read somewhere the 900 comes with Tango update installed, Looking forward to receiving it then can put the HTC Titan in the drawer :D

Oops! Just got yet another email from Phones4u saying yet another delay, They can't give me a delivery date as O2 haven't Authorised the Lumia 900 for use on their Network? What is the point of Pre-Order and selecting Network and Tariff only to find out it's not even available?

Not a happy puppy lol, Oh well looks like I will be using the Titan for now.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Zulfo:
I bought the Lumia 800 3 weeks ago, but I will exchange it for the 900 when it lands in Denmark....
[Nokia Lumia 900] audriusj:
Anyone in the UK would be willing to swap their lumia 900, for a white Nokia N9?
[Nokia Lumia 900] tfn:
Got mine from Phones4U today, I wanted the black but they had the white sp bought that sim free.. and quiet happy with my purchace.

I have started another thread to post my findings and if you have any general questions and UK XDA members might have as this is a mixture of USA and UK posts here.
[Nokia Lumia 900] MyopicWorm:
Just check Phones4U website, but didn't see Lumia 900 with sim free.

Anyway, how much do you get it?
[Nokia Lumia 900] Peew971:
Not on their website but you can get it instore for £459. Still undecided between white an cyan.
[Nokia Lumia 900] -sparx-:
Got a white Lumia delivered on Saturday.

So Far, battery excellent, went from 7:30am to midnight yesterday with no charging (albeit must have been seconds from dying when i plugged in) with heavy use of wifi during the day.

Seems like an excellent choice, screen is amazing too!
[Nokia Lumia 900] aslan93:
Nice to hear! How's music? Camera?
[Nokia Lumia 900] tfn:
My Lumia Developed a problem (phones4u)

No sound from the phone speaker and its only a day old, resetting only helps for a while.

funny enough if I press the bottom of the screen between the windows logo and the search button I can hear the sound.

Defo a Hardware problem, THey have given me an exchange code now, Hope to exchange it today hopefully for a better one.

Camera seem to take blurry photos close up /portraits ( changing the focus to macro seems to help )

Also mine has the purple tint in camera which goes away if saturation under camera settings is changed to minimum.

It is a beautiful phone with Bugs :( ... But still a beauty nevertheless :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] -sparx-:
Camera is great, very good outdoors, not quite on par with the 4S but a lot better than my previous WP7 (HD7) which doesnt say much. I would say its the better camera ive had on a phone (having never owned a 4S)

Music is good, although, currently lacks an virtual EQ. IM a Zune subscriber and to be fair ive never really had any problems.

Interestingly, the BT Audio to my Logitech BT headphones is better quality and more consistantly connected that is was on the HD7.

Hey guys,

I've been wondering if there's any way to backup the joined contacts, by that I mean the contacts I've joined together by HaxSync and phone contacts.

Every time I need to wipe and flash a new rom it kinda suck to have to start joining all the contacts again..
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelflare:
I've been here about 6 months and i've never had something to say or share. I'm a vision user and i use it a lot. I'm trying different roms, betas, alphas just for fun. So anyway...

For the first time, i decided to make a comment about the beta rom i test and by the rules, i've been informed that i don't have such rights. Why on earth should i have 10 posts or topics or something to share my opinion on a development rom?

I know it's about keeping things clean but is it better if i post 10 stupid and irrelevant topics just to share my opinion or report some bugs? In my opinion development topics should be open for anyone. It's nonsense that i have to open 10 topics or ask questions just to post a reply or something. With all respect...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyraOfFire:
I see your point, I thought it was a hassle back when I had 0 post too.

But, you see, respect is earned, not given as a right. And by the way, what you just did (posting a thread to complain about rules) would just make people think that the rules make quite some senses.

Regards,
[Shift General] ucenna:
I've been trying to Liberate my Shift so I can flash it with a new rom. I can't liberate it because I can't email myself the files I need. To top everything off my shift is Italian so It's difficult to follow instructions without Google Translate. Any help would be appreciated.

Me
[Shift General] Ishman:
You must have gotten 1 from onesaleaday. THey have Italian on the WM side. Do you have someone who would let you borrow a SIM card for just a few minutes? That is the easiest way and setup an email account.

IF not your only way is to try this and hope it works:Just setup a fake connection under WM side, and let it try to connect. Use the internet sharing method for that. some folks have had luck doing this.
[Shift General] ucenna:
Right you are. I don't know if I'll be able to borrow a sim card anytime soon, I'm not a cell phone user myself and that's why I don't have one. I do have some old out-of-service phones with sim cards but I don't think they'd work. I'll think I've tried the setup up a fake connection with little success, but I could be wrong. would you be kind enough to explain the method of doing it to me.

Me
[Shift General] Ishman:
Did you try the following

- In SnapVue, click Outlook E-mail to pretend you are sending an email

- Click Menu,Nuovo

- Click Menu,Nuovo Inserisci immagine

- Where it says "My Pictures", click and navigate to "Windows" directory

you can click the directory location but selecting the label in the upper left of the file box.

- Highlight (using arrow keys) the "Start Menu" directory and copy it (using ctrl-c)

- Navigate into "Settings" directory in "Windows" and paste (ctrl-v). You will get an error concerning "calendario" or calender.

- Click Ok and go back to SnapVue.

- Click Settings button; you should now have a new color icon, and then "Start Menu, Programs, Condivisione Internet"

- Click "Connetti". The screen will say "Controllare il cavo USB.". Switch over to Vista and make sure that you have a network connection. Might have to click repair network, etc. Check network connections in the control panel

- Switch back to snapvue and click Disconnetti

- Switch back to Vista and open Windows Explorer. From the "Computer" level, keep pressing F5 until you see Pocket_PC. Hopefully you do and can transfer files that method.

That is the only way I know without a SIM card. I did not have to do this but others have and had success.
[Shift General] ucenna:
I have done so until I got to this part

My "Connetti" is unselectable. If I click on the airplane in the comm manager, I can select "Connetti" but as far as I can tell the error message that follows is not related to USB. It is as follows:

Impossibile connettersi

Impossibile connettersi. Accertarsi che il telefono sia configurato correttamente,che il servizio sia disponibile e che la Modalità Aereo sia disattivata prima di riprovare.

or in english

Unable to connect

Unable to connect. Make sure your phone is configured properly, the service is available and that the flight mode is turned off before trying again.

from that I think the airplane is not necessary, and probably conterproductive.
[Shift General] dan3dk:
any body

were can i download shift pack to liberate

or just email to me dan3dk@yahoo.com

thanks in advance
[Shift General] ucenna:
to dan3dk

I'm going to email you a page link, because I can't post it ( I'm a new user.)

if you scroll down that page it with have a place where you can have the files emailed to you.

To everybody

how do you get the internet setup so one can use this method
[Shift General] Ducman44:
Ok I must be doing something wrong here, i can't get the color icon to appear in the windows/setting/programs that says 'condivisione internet' I get what looks like a card game and nothing else, what am I doing wrong here?
[Shift General] ucenna:
It seems to me that you are skipping these steps:

if you want to skip those steps then yous should look in windows/startup/programs

for "Condivisione Internet"
[Shift General] dan3dk:
new story

i need to restore setting derectory

or hard reset

i deleted it by exident
[Shift General] ucenna:
To dan3dk:

follow these directions http://www.pocketables.net/2008/05/how-to-hard-res.html

Alternatively you could try tapping ctrl-z multiple times, but I really don't think that will work.

[Shift General] ucenna:
Not to be rude but I'm still looking to get my question answered
[Shift General] Ishman:
If you have access to a SIM card even one that does not have a plan, could you try it and see if that makes a difference.

---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

Worst case, you can send the device to me and I can liberate, and flash with an English ROM using my SIM card. You just pay for the shipping.
[Shift General] ucenna:
Well now that I put a sim card in I am able to click the "conneti" button. On clicking It asks me to "verify" for lack of a better word, the connection. after that it appears to connect and then disconnects right after. I'm going to reset using ecshift.exe and try again.
[Shift General] Ishman:
Just to make sure i am clear. Did you liberate the device?

If so, than you should be able to connect via WMDC on the Vista side.

You also need to make sure to unchecked enable advanced network under the usb to pc option in WM.
[Shift General] ucenna:
to be clear that's what I'm trying to do
[Shift General] dan3dk:
thanks for the files !!!!!!!!

2. Install the EnableRapi.cab file from the zip on Snapvue side. (of course do unzip in Vista first.)

anybody knows how to do this

thanks in advance

---------- Post added at 04:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

ucena : i can try to get u a demo card form att or use simple mobile for 2 days
[Shift General] Ishman:
Once you transfer the cab into the WM side, just double click it to run and let it install.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

ucenna,

If you liberated, try the usbtool and make sure on the usb to pc connection you uncheck the enable advanced network option. (I keep stating that because that is what final allowed me to connect)
[Shift General] ucenna:
I'll try again. Would somebody bw kind enough to tell me where the advance networking checkbox is.

Also, does it matter how I set up the network for liberating using the before mentioned(non-email) method, or can I enter a bunch of randow characters in the textboxs that block my path.

to dan3dk:

Thanks, I hope I don't need one, but if I do I can contact you.
[Shift General] ucenna:
Yah hoo!! Pocketpc popped up for who knows what reason! YAH!!!!

...

Now what?
[Shift General] Ishman:
Assuming you are already liberated you now need to follow the rest of the guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=489007

You definitely need to ShiftHardSPLFinal or you could brick it.
[Shift General] ucenna:
Well, I've flash the age of reason rom. Now I just need to figure out how to use the gps. Thanks all.

Me out
[Shift General] Ducman44:
I have tried this liberation at least 50+ times and can't seem to get/find the files that are supposed to copy. I know I must be doing something wrong, but what.....?

Can someone post a video, or email or Pm me a video of the steps?

Or is their anyone in the Central part of NJ that wants to help a noob out(beers are on me)?

I am not a novice at these things (spent many hours doing this stuff on archos devices), but this one is really getting on my nerves now.

Thanks
[Shift General] Ishman:
I personally would borrow someones SIM card for 15 minutes. You can still use your email account. Much easier and will work.
[Shift General] ucenna:
using this method I was able to do it

I did have to do it multiple times and a did need a sim card.

Note: the sim card I used wasn't an "activated" sim card. So if you have an old cell phone lying around, you can probably use it's sim card, assuming it has one
[LG Optimus 3D] jameshezzy:
First, I would like to say I hope I posted this in the right place. so my my problem is that my LG O3d can play 3d videos that I have made with the camera and 3d videos from youtube. but if I transfer a 3d movie from my computer it displays as side by side on the phone. I've tried converting the video into different formats and using different codecs but to no luck. if someone could help me work out how to fix this I would appreciate it, so far i have only found out how to do it on the evo 3d, so I'd appreciate any help that could be given. thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus 3D] Markyzz:
I believe there's an option in the video player settings that allows you to change how the 3d movie is viewed, ie side by side.
[LG Optimus 3D] jameshezzy:
could you tell me how to get to this setting because i can't seem to find it anywhere.
[LG Optimus 3D] 314:
Turn 3d Mode on

Then, go Menu>3D formatting>L/R SBS

It works on every video, even non 3D ones.
[LG Optimus 3D] vitorcruzbr:
When playing the video, push the 3D Button, then Menu (capacitive one), 3d Formatter, then select one of the options, Sbs, etc
[LG Optimus 3D] jameshezzy:
thanks to the both of you, I would never have thought to do that. everything i seem to find is more oriented towards the evo 3d
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
ive got a feeling the 605.5 update was the update we were supposed to get, but maybe vzw decided on holding on to it till they can patch the current s-off exploit.

call me cynical but coming from a droid x and i remember these type of things happening before with moto and vzw...to the point where devs waited for a new update before revealing how to get root or run cm9 using the 2nd init...

perhaps we should have waited for ics to drop first before unveiling s-off...
[HTC Rezound] con247:
It was gonna be launched on other phones regardless.
[HTC Rezound] Mobile_Jedi:
I highly doubt it..we are a minority to the rest of verizon rezound users...so i doubt they would postpone it....but i can be wrong with some of big reds past behaviors

Sent for my vigorous rezound
[HTC Rezound] con247:
My worst fear about it is that it is worse than the newest (5/7) leak and has S-OFF patched with hboot 2.26 or something. So people on the official track are screwed.

Hopefully that doesn't happen though.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
just saying vzw is not above going all out against the dev community...even the gnex updates are subject to verizons approval even though the carriers were supposed to be cut out of the loop...vzw does not like anything they dont get money from that they could be charging for...extra functionality w/ no money=evil bad murder kill to them
[HTC Rezound] dg4prez:
it's more likely that verizon postponed it for a business reason, like waiting for the inc 4g to drop. it's a flagship device and they're going to want it to be the first HTC with ICS.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
exactly my point...technically the only thing holding us back is kernel source which wont come out till the official ics is released...lets say, if they did decide to patch s-off first and then release ics we would either have to stick to these leaks or upgrade to the official...upgrading to the official and presumably a new hboot which would then leave us at the mercy of verizon until devs can find another s-off exploit., if they can...i know there will always be workarounds and exploits to be had but dev unlock and s-off gave us the keys to the kingdom but what if vzw changes the locks completely
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
Even if the OTA patches the S Off exploit, then we just don't take the OTA, and wait for our devs to use the OTA as the base for their ROMs.....that's how we used to do things on the OG EVO. Once you're rooted, you never, ever, took an OTA. I don't even think they could turn the security flag back on with an OTA update if they wanted to, but I'm not sure. I'm sure there's someone far more knowledgeable who can confirm or deny the truth of that.
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
What would that do for those who don't have s off?

I'm running stock gb, rooted, that's all. I was going to wait until the update then s off.

Are you saying I should s off now? While I have the chance? Im not skilled or comfortable enough with flashing yet, to flash everything seperate like you can with s off. The main reason I would want s off is so that I can go back to complete stock, and locked. Is that enough to do s off?
[HTC Rezound] uToTMeH8:
Yes...absolutely! You don't need to flash separate radios and kernels if you don't want. You should do it now just in case...
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
if youre not comfortable with s-off then dont do it...as im sure htc will not revoke our ability to unlock the bootloader, and you dont need s-off to gain root...im just wondering for those of us that have s-off if we just made it harder for ourselves by unveiling the s-off method before we had the official ics and source... but as tspderek said, it may have just been a decision to sell a few more of the newer phones
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
I would get it done now. There's a chance, albeit small, that HTC patches the new HBOOT to block the exploit. Considering the steps we take to get S OFF, I'd doubt it though.
[HTC Rezound] Thadrow:
I understand people wanting to wait todo SOFF or being a little scared of the risks but i don't think anyone should be waiting or worried at this.

The SOFF method has been out for a while now, and alot of successful runs, with alot of troubleshoot threads, solutions - why be scared and wait? Id say just do it. Its running great for everyone whos done it and it gives you way more options with your device if you need to switch between firmware at this time. Why restrict yourself ? :)
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
Definitely s-off.

no reason not to.

Especially if you are still on the stock GB OTA release. It took me all of 3 minutes... start to finish. I'll even mail you my wire-trick wire if you need it :)
[HTC Rezound] dg4prez:
no. you need a blank sd card, that's all. when i did s-off i popped in my sd card, started the process, got it on the first go, installed the juopunutbear hboot, flashed recovery, and booted right back into my rom.
