[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lphillips80:
I purchased mine on craigslist and tmobile gave me the unlock code. I went on there online chat and they emailed the code within 12 hours.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] capcanuck:
Yup, me too.. just called them and told them I was leaving the country for a few months, no problem. Bought the phone from a buddy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] alexplaza:
You can get the unlock code through online..........give your IMEI number and get the unlock code for ur mobile.... i will suggest the website which is doing good service .....you can approach this website. This site is nearly perfect and they were recommended highly in the cell phone forums. I used them to unlock my cell phone. contacted them and within 30 mins i had my unlock code and my phone was unlocked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lphillips80:
Why pay when T-Mobile will give it to him free? SMDH.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] alexplaza:
Some service provider will charge more for unlock code becos they dont want to loss the customer like u.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
I never heard of a service provider charging for an unlock code.

BTW to OP

it does not matter where you got your phone, as long as you're in good standings with your service provider they will offer you the unlock code for free.

1 per number every 90 days.

Try this for non-carrier unlock its 25 bucks I think

Contact Samsung. T-mobile will give u the unlock code but for whatever reason u don't want to go to them just call Samsung. Goodluck getting through though.

P.s. T-mobile doesn't have ur unlock code anyway. They provide you the service of getting it from the manufacturer for you. In this case.....Samsung
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
hey thanks for reviving a thread thats 3 months old~! You shouldn't make new accounts and spam like that.. you must be the same person as the other guy who got banned for this.

yeah
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bzlik88:
Whooops lol didn't realize this thread was old. Not particularly sober. Just trying to help :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ChazzMatt:
:confused:

If someone has a better answer for a technical question, there's NOTHING wrong with reviving a thread to provide that answer. I use Google all the time to find answers, and I don't care how old the thread is if the answer works. I want the best answer.

If your complaint is you think the guy is spamming in his answer, then that's a different matter.

This phone is still being sold and people are still looking for the best way to unlock it. The "T-Mobile" T989 SII variant is superior to the AT&T variant. It has a faster CPU (1.5GHz vs 1.2GHz), a bigger screen (4.5" vs 4.3"), and is QUAD band. Once unlocked it can run on both AT&T and T-Mobile HSPA+. Right now it's being sold at a big box store for $299, without contract.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ludbosanac17:
T-Mobile reps are the worst. The service is great but the people aren't. Had to get a replacement phone for my hard-bricked T989 and the lady did not understand that my phone was broken and asked me multiple times if I was calling from the device in question (the one I've told her atleast 10 times is completely broken and wont turn on or do anything). It is much better to try to keep asking a different chat rep before going to another website because most of the time they are just in a hurry to get done talking with you. Try a different chat rep.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyfviperx:
Holy, here in Canada they grab 50-75$ to unlock your phone...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] w1ll1am23:
Tmobile will not give it

I am not a T-Mobile customer and they refuse to give me the unlock code for the device. I have spoke with two different chat reps and one on the phone. I also have spoke to Samsung and they said they could help unlock but I would have to get the Network Lock Code from T-Mobile not sure what that is or if that is actually what I am trying to get rep could have been an idiot.

Edit: I purchased an unlock code from Cellunlocker.net for 24.99 for my SGH-T989 worked perfect and took only 3 hours to get my code
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NLPUNITED:
So to be clear, if I want to sellmy Telus phone to a Rogers user, we have to call rogers for an unlock code using the guy's Rogers sim card?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kirkofistan:
I tried that "Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock" app and it didn't work ... kept crashing aroung pass 4/5 ...

got online with T-mobile customer care chat, they wanted me to fax them a copy of my receipt showing I purchased the phone from a T-mobile store ... but I gave them the IMEI and they said this:

"!Ivy G: I have filed the request to unlock your phone. SIM subsidy unlock requests do not have a set time limit in which they are processed.

T-Mobile cannot guarantee a response time or an unlock code for all equipment, and not all equipment will be eligible to be unlocked.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
I get this huge rainbow streak on my screen, its specially noticeable in the browser or the SMS app which have white backgrounds, its not that my protector hasn't settled in because I have been using it for over a weekim sure it has dried already.

I'm thinking maybe the protector was damaged on the shipping process? I'm saying this because the case it was on came in a not so good condition and the squeegee was stuck on the protector, it was an international shipping so I can't take it back, does somebody else has the same issue?

I have read about the rainbow effect on cheap screen protectors that's why in not fully convinced that it was damaged in the shipping process .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hakizi:
It's a defect, and not all of their screen protectors have them. I've had two that did, and two that didn't. Contact them and they'll send you one or two new ones for free. They have the most amazing customer service ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neosic:
Are they vertical lines?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
Yes, vertical lines :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upstandingcitizen:
What's the contact number.

BOOM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neosic:
I have the same thing, I messaged them and they're sending a replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hakizi:
They have a little section on their website where you can write them a message, so that's what I did. They got back to me right away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diffstyle:
I had a similar problem with my Realook sp. It only seems to happen on wet install sp's. On a white backgroud, it seems like there are water particles under the screen which gives that rainbow effect. I ordered a replacement and just got it today but have yet to install it. Realook told me its a defect in wet install sp's. Current I am using my Ringboo dry install sp and it has no problem at all, super crystal clear and u can't even tell that it is on. The only thing that bothers me is that its smaller than the screen so some parts are left exposed. I'll try to install the wet install Realook sp tomorrow and let you know how it goes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stretched:
Found this number for them on Google 801-225-4414 Its on their Corporate office map listing so who knows who you will speak to. Their contact page may be quicker
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chad_Petree:
i threw away the box and *i-m guessing( the serial number, what did you do to have them send you a new one? :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clj575:
I have received one from them with the squeegee adhered to the screen protector from the heat while shipping. Then the replacement was jacked too...the plastic envelope it was in caused a weird pattern in the protector which remained after install. They do respond to your request or concerns in a timely manner which is a plus.

After using both wet and dry install protectors...I prefer the dry install screen protectors like Seidio sells.
[HTC One X] sayapedr1234:
Hey guys, i was wondering how I can revert back to the original android ics keyboard on my htc one x? I dont like the HTC keyboard and want to use the AOSP keyboard. Also how can i change the way the recents look? I dont like the HTC Sense version of the multitasking and I want it to look like the AOSP kind.
[HTC One X] dr9722:
Your only option would be to download a AOSP "lookalike" keyboard from the PlayStore.

With regards to the Recent app list you are stuck with that im afraid unless you unlock and flash an AOSP rom.

I would love to have a way to do this without gaving to root also.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zedbra:
you will find App2SD is not allowed for this device. :(

Rooting is no big deal. Definately Root if or when a hack comes for App2SD.

Mine is already rooted. need to figure out a way to swap internal storage to ext. SD:D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ke1evraTi:
I will give this a shot tonight and let you know how it goes.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but what is FB? I tried searching on the forum and online but the only reference I could find was facebook.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilstevie:
could you use git, or post a .patch for the framebuffer patch because there is no way I am going to spend ages downloading the kernel source from 2shared then having to try and find WTF you did
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rmaniac:
Ke1evraTi: It just means the framebuffer which is the base graphics support under linux. Basically since it does not work, you won't see much until the X11 drivers kicks in.

lilstevie: Pulling the original kernel from Asus was way slower than 2shared. Also creating the patch was quick. Only a few hundred lines to skim. I have attached it for you or anyone else who is interested. If my diff options do not suit your fancy, kindly suggest different ones and I will re-post.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
Sorry m8 i didnt had any sleep last two day's i was broke when i uploaded it , was easy for me fast upload thats why. but looking add the path above that sould do it if not ill will send a patch.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] stonerhino28:
Ok. I am running ubuntu on a sbk2 tf101 using the method posted by jozka.1 how do i apply the new kernels like the on posted here to that install? i know that this is a total noob question but i want to try it on my unit. I know that it says that the video acceleration does not work on unity but should work on kde. will it work on gnome?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrMuffin24:
Sorry, kernel isn't working for me. I installed the latest linux4tegra driver package, added the modules folder posted to /lib/modules and flashed the kernel through CWM, but the GUI fails to load and running startx from the command line does nothing. I'm not sure if this was my mistake, but the modules posted were for the 2.6.39.4 kernel and Jhinta posted a 2.6.36.4 kernel. Where did I mess up?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
ore you flashed the wrong zip file ore the flashes didnt install make sure after cwm you see the blue line going meening its flashing the blob
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrMuffin24:
Yep definitely the right kernel and I did see the blue line afterwards. Just to make sure that I've done this right, so I:

-download linux4tegra package, run: sudo <path-to>/apply_binaries.sh --root /

-run: sudo cp -r <path-to>/2.6.39.4/ /lib/modules/

-reboot to CWM, flash Ubuntu-3D.zip

-reboot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
thats it, maby i did send a wrong one , any way here it is
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ssciberras:
the latest t4l drivers use the 3.1 kernel, so which version of l4t did you use?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrMuffin24:
Still no luck with the new kernel posted by Jhinta, with the r12beta drivers installed on a sbkv2 device.

Heres the screen I originally get when I boot:

Here's what I get when I run startx:

I'll try it again from scratch, just in case. Let me know if there are any logs or anything you want me to post.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rmaniac:
Have you tried maybe sudo depmod -a ? Might fix those module loading issues which could be your problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrMuffin24:
Running lsmod after boot shows that all the modules have loaded. I still get these errors on fully working installs for some reason.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilstevie:
uname -a

will reveal to you that you are in fact running 2.6.36.4 and not 2.6.39.4 which is jhintas kernel
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrMuffin24:

Okay graphics driver working well now, booting and having fun.

Until I tried to get online and noticed my not working wifi.

Does I have to inject the wifi driver or anything I missed?

Well I wish you a lot of fun in spain jhinta!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jozka.1:
How did you install the tegra driver please? And which version and which ubuntu version :D

Wifi? Which image do you use?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
did you installed the modules correctly? or do a insmod on the wifi module,

if you have your own rootfs get nvram and bcm firmware file and place under /lib/firmware
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ke1evraTi:
Does this kernel work with 12.04? I thought nvidia had not released drivers for 12.04 yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ssciberras:
many thanks to jhinta

this really works nice.

sounds worked, and even hdmi - although the image on a projector is cropped ( resolution still 1280 rather than 1024 ) so i need to work on that.

one issue is that anything not connected to the tf before booting will not be recognised, eg dock, usb mouse, and flash drives.

but now i have 11.10, with most that i need, so cannot complain.

btw what is the main advantage of hf?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] conizius:
Well I unziped 3.1.10 into /lib/modules/

lsmod shows a loaded bcm4329 (thats the wifi, or am I mistaken?)

in /lib/firmware are

nvram.txt

nvrm_avp_xxxxxxxx.bin (5 different)

nvrm_avp.bin

I used apply_binaries.sh (r15 beta) to install all tegra drivers.

I'm running 12.04 upgraded from 11.10 rootfs from lilstevie.

Previously wifi was working on 12.04

Or ware there just no drivers for 12.04 working with 3.1 kernel?

Anything I missed?

As far as I know it's faster for floating point arithmetics
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ke1evraTi:
So the 3.1 kernel works fine with 12.04? I thought that we had the use the beta 12 drivers with ubuntu because the new ones did not work properly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] conizius:
Well yeah it works pretty fine (now even get a time estimation for battery life), but I have no wifi till now :(

Well previously we had to use beta 12 because we used no 3.1 kernel ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ke1evraTi:
Thanks! You could try using Olife to inject the wifi modules. I think that bcm4329 is for wifi but I could be mistaken.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
bcm firmware file (fw_bcm4329.bin)? look ad dmesg it show more then loading wifi

Got my xbmc fully working now .
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] conizius:
yep file is there. I'm scanning throu dmesg right now and attached it (maybe someone sees more than I do - would be not suprising).

Well and I found till now:

I also got some stacktraces but nothing looks like having todo with wifi and bcm4329.

Anyone got an idea?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] conizius:
Oh well! Shame on me (or maybe not).

My files fw_bcm4329.bin and nvram.txt (and the others) where directly in /lib/firmware

But as dmesg told, they were searched in /lib/firmware/bcm4329/

Well I keep them in both places, just in case I change to a kernel with the other search path compiled ;)

Now I'm on wifi... thanks to everyone that helped!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] conizius:
Well I had that, when I was using a false initrd (therefore I think initrd isn't ignored). Which setup are you using?

if you are on skb1 and using olife, than use the initrd from jhinta's post. If your loopmounting on skb2, there's an other one (few posts after jhinta).

Btw what you see is surely the content of the initrd

3 small issues remain for me:

- hdmi clones, but on a projector, the image will be cropped.

- keyboard does not work fully, eg Fn key + left arrow does not do end

- usb devices need to be connected from boot, otherwise they are not recognised

thanks for the hard work, this is nearly what I was hopig for when I bought the TF. pity arm linux is not as supported by third party, eg adobe, skype, dropbox
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
compile original asusec or edit current one ( original need touchpad fix to work !!!)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ssciberras:
will try to find the way to config the current one then. But this will solve the keyboard issues only i presume.

HDMI solved with xrandr

usb prob boils down to tegra.ehci driver, but needs more looking into.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jhinta:
my source has the touchpad working , so if you edit it you can .

HDMI solved with xrandr , share please.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jozka.1:
Can you please upload your compiled xbmc? In repositary isn't and I can't compile it.

I think armel arch.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ssciberras:
tegra.ehci - does it have anything to do with asusec? lsusb shows the flash drive in the usb still attached even when removed.

asusec - am doing google search, but cannot find info about it. Where do I find it? and i would presume compiling is from the sources you had attached?

HDMI & xrandr:

xrandr is a beautiful thing - allows you to transform your screen in any way you wish, eg rotation scaling etc.

xrandr man gives details as well.

Basically the maximum space you can have is 2048 x 2048. To clone both screens, just resize TF screen:

first add a new mode for screen

xrandr --newmode "1024x768" 63.50 1024 1072 1176 1328 768 771

775 798 -hsync +vsync

xrandr --screen 0 --output LVDS-1 --size 1024x768

You can have a dual screen mode as well, within limits of the driver workspace.

Asusec is the source for dock you can find it in the original kernel for the tf101 ( also original ec touchpad does not work but will if you have a mt driverlike ubuntu 12 and mtrack ) some one did that already.
