sfhub thanks for your fast reply, i really appreciate it.

As far as the language with the build prop error, I'm not 100% sure and would need to redo that process to get it and then re-Odin your awesome FF02 one click and set up everything again.

Since I've just redone the FF02 setup and am generally happy with the stock rooted FF02 for now, would it be ok if I attempt the flash later, when I'm sure I'll be wanting/itching for a custom ROM, and post the info you requested then?

Thanks so much for everything you do sfhub! Since getting my E4GT in December your work has allowed me to discover the full potential of this device!

Yup, that is fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BiggieD:
Why is the Odin different in this one sf? It is in a folder and ask to put pit file in? It kinda threw me off from your past release and I have not flashed yet, thanks in advance

Sfhub, thanks again for everything. I was able to successfully flash a new ROM with CWM by Mobile Odin back using EL 26 instead of Direct Boot CWM5.

i just have a quick question to ask the peeps. Im trying to troubleshoot my 3d, but it seems to be happening on my fiances evo 4g to and it is if the phone goes into a sleep like for me it was an hour today while i was in the gym. when i awoke the phone but didnt make a call i couldnt get any calls into my phone until i made an outgoing call. did that make sense? my fiances phone is the same if left in sleep for a while it will i guess disconnect from the network although it will not show it in the signal. only way to get it to fully awake is place a call. has anybody else on the boost mobile network had this problem? I currently have Booster shots ICS rom..which is the best working IMHO, and she is just rooted with stock software. i dont remember this happening before when i had the evo shift flashed for this but now it seems to be happing all the time.
[HTC EVO 3D] banccalif:
Ive had both the og evo and am currently with 3d on boost and haven't experienced this at all with either phone. Dont know what can be causing it.. Im running mean ics BTW

Are you sure its just not a network issue?
[HTC EVO 3D] 808souljah:
I have this issue also... I'm not sure if it is the network, or if it is because the phone is flashed, but sometimes when people try to call me it goes straight to voicemail..... I also have text messages that don't get delivered, but once I make a call, I hear a beep, and those texted finally get delivered.... it is super annoying.....

[HTC EVO 3D] gmzombie:
yea doner phone dosent get any power stuffed away with battery out of it. its been happening for a while now but it has recently gotten worse. seems like every deep sleep the radio disconnects...thats my opinion. last flashed i wiped til it bleed 3x data 3x davlik 3x cache 3x modified superwipe then flashed rom but that wouldnt explain the rooted og evo that is doing the same thing. i think its the network but i didnt know if anyone else was having that issue. I wish they would just allow now that they have wimax the ability to put older phone on the network like the evo and shift and 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] gmzombie:
i did a full factory reset/hands free activation. we will see if this fixes the issue. on a side note its super annoying to do that since i have to reflash the doner info again..lol did it like 5 times.
[HTC EVO 3D] gmzombie:
so i did what i said last night and it seemed to have fixed the problem. normally in the monrning i would have to call out to fix that issue but i tried to call it from my work phone and it worked. now i must fix the wifeys phone and try that

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] nikhilpshankar:
Duh :|

replace the default animation file

u must be rooted and hav root explorer

hit thanks button if helped
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ZeRo2o9:
also rename the bootanimation to what yours is named either ATT_bootanimation.zip or bootanimation.zip
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] topher41:
Here is how I did it.

1. Download the .zip to your desktop and rename this file to the file that your device uses. (I use ATT, so I navigated to system, customize, resource, and that's where I saw my boot animation and it was, ATT_bootanimation.zip

2. Mount the disk so you can open the external sd drive on your computer

3. Moved the .zip file from the desktop to the external sd drive

4. I use Rom Toolbox, but use a root explorer and copy the bootanimation zip file from your external sd card, to your devices bootanimation file, It will ask if you want to overwrite or keep both files, but you MUST overwrite. Reboot phone and it should work. If that doesn't then try and install it from your recovery and you might have to delete the cache, but try that.

I do recommend backing up the phone and the current rom though...Just incase
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Conjukt:
Is there a specific place to go where i can download different boot animations for the vivid as well as preview them before downloading?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:

You have to download them first but it lets you see what it will look like.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theandies:
Don't overwrite your ATT_bootanimation.zip file just rename it ATT_bootanimation.bak (or just bootanimation.bak if your original bootanimation file is named just bootanimation). This way if you can't get it to work then you can delete the file that dosen't work and go back to your original file by putting the .zip back.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] yosoywilson78:
Try install boot animation factory

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theandies:
I'd love to try Annimation Factory but it requires Win SP3. I only have/use the laptop my company gives me and they control what SP are installed with an iron fist and we are only on SP1. I really need to build a new box. I"m still working on doing it the old fashion way as discribed in the OP's document.

EDIT - FYI - I installed Annimation Factory and it works just fine on SP1. One thing that I have noticed every time I open it it prompts me there is a new version even when turning off the check for updates in settings. When I try to download the new version it gives a downloader error. I don't think this is related to SP1. The AF version I have works good though. I'll go and get the new version manually.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zevvez:
Hi everyone!

I have (er, had) a G2X running Bionix Reloaded that fell into a pool this weekend. :(

Via T-Mobile phone insurance, I got a new one. But I realized that I have some data on the old one's internal SD card that I'd really like to have (like my Titanium Backup info -- knew I should have taken the time to upload to Dropbox).

Is there any way to access that data now? Perhaps using ADB? Doesn't seem like there would be, but I'm hoping there's something goofy I could try. I'm trying to avoid the overhead of setting EVERYTHING up again.

(At least the replacement has the new baseband, so I flashed Kwes' rooted stock ROM to at least be able to get rid of some of the bloat.)

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ehafling:
Considering the fact that the internal SD is still flash memory and flash memory usually doesn't survive water very well when there's power running through it, I'd say probably not. But best of luck!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zevvez:
That's a shame, but I appreciate the info. :)

Onto customizing everything all over again...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stormageddon:
Unfortunately I do not know of a way to help you with this. If the phone can boot to a point you can use ADB it might be possible to get some of the data. Good luck to ya.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zevvez:
Hmm... I think I'll give it another day to make sure it's dried out before attempting to boot. Maybe I'll get lucky and be able to pull some of that data off.

I like Kwes' ROM for the root capability, but I sure do miss some of the enhancements of Bionix Reloaded (or Weapon, or Eaglesblood).

Thanks, stormageddon!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rjbriggs18:
Stick it in a bag of rice it will pull the water out a little better and might increase your chances of getting your data back

[HTC One V] ascot17:
Hi,

I am currently residing on the One S forums (don't have a One V), and have found (in conjunction with jh787) a working method of SIM unlocking the One S for free.

The method may also be applicable to the One V.

Part of the trick is obtaining an UN_Lock-code stored on the phone. On the One S this is found as follows:

1) You need root

2) You need Terminal Emulator (free from the market)

Open the Terminal Emulator app and type:

su	[enter]

strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6	[enter] (or maybe mmcblk0p7 on the One V)

It will output several lines of data.

One the One S, towards the bottom are 2 lines. One contains your IMEI number, the other reads UN_Lock_code=063312345 (for example)

This is NOT the SIM unlock code - don't use it!

I believe that the One V uses a different partition structure, so the correct data may not be in the mmcblk0p6 block.

If anyone can tell be the correct block for the One V, I will test the hack on your device and, if possible, provide a free sim unlock hack for the One V.
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
For One S, what is this mmcblk0p6 referring to ?

Below is One V partition structure:

mmcblk0p17: misc

mmcblk0p21: recovery

mmcblk0p22: boot

mmcblk0p25: system

mmcblk0p28: cache

mmcblk0p26: userdata

mmcblk0p29: devlog

mmcblk0p31: pdata

mmcblk0p30: extra

mmcblk0p32: fat

mmcblk0p27: swap
[HTC One V] ascot17:
Good question - I have absolutely no idea!!
[HTC One V] hlavicka82:
I found the IMEI number in block mmcblk0p7 but I didn't find the UN_Lock_code string. Maybe thats because mine is not SIM locked.
[HTC One V] ascot17:
That may well be the case. Have added a note in the OP. Can other users try mmcblk0p7 and report..

Here is my TE output from that block which shows what you are looking for.

From other reports, I believe that the code may not exist in a factory-unlocked phone (only a carrier-locked one).

This method may help to search for the right string.
[HTC One V] blackwing182:
if the code is not under or above the ime code , its suposed to have a date instead, that means that the unlock code is not in the device
[HTC One V] Olean:
any news? :) i really need it!
[HTC One V] bxlogic:
this is good idea of a thread! i was about to pay for this, if someone can crack it i will donate him the payment i ment to pay for it :)
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
I have a partially locked one v (it is locked on Orange carrier - but it is confirmed as working with a Cosmote AND Vodafone carrier). Is this method working? I want to know because I want to root the thing and if I don't find a good method to unlock it I may as well go with it to service center. It's only 1 day old. Cheers
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
Tested, it doesn't work. Here's why:

"sh: strings: not found".

Cheers!

This is on stock version. So i guess I need to push the 'strings' in /system/bin
[HTC One V] ascot17:
This method is not yet working on the One V. We still do not know where the UN_Lock_code resides (If it is there at all - it is not on the mmcblk0p6 block). If your phone works with 3 different sim cards, however, it is not SIM-locked!

The strings command seems to work only if you have busybox installed. It will work on most custom ROMs but not on stock unless you have installed busybox manually.
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
I have busybox installed. I've pushed strings to /system/bin and now I'll run the command. I don't know if this works or not because no one with an unlocked sim has tried it and said it was good or not.

Apart from the obvious (sn,mac,imei,mf date) only a couple of lines are different compared to my output.

The TY********** line seems to be a SN of some sort.

P.S. I suggest that you edit out your IMEI and SN from your output for privacy reasons
[HTC One V] mkrle:
I'm changing my network so I had to go to a "shop" and pay for unlocking.

What I saw them do is:

connect a pair of wires to somewhere, i think some SD card pins

the phone then dumps something (probably for debugging purposes) to SD card, I think a part of flash where the (scrambled) unlock code lies

upload the dump to a website which extracts the unlock code from the dump

I think I read somewhere here on XDA that they made a phone dump stuff to SD card but I can't seem to find it any more, does anyone know about this?

If you root you can add no require sim line to the build.prop and still mess around with the phone butt the major thing about that is your pretty much gonna be litrd to that. You could try getting it in HTC diag and trying DFS to see if its sim unlock option works

Maybe S-OFF is needed first

Hi guys.

I have found this while reading FAQ about Unlock Bootloader on HTCdev.com:

Just thinking out loud:

Maybe something about UN_Lock_code would show up in /dev/block/mmcblk0p* when we S-OFF.

But since there is no way to S-OFF currenty, there is no way to check this..

mkrle posted about phone dumping stuff to SD card - this would be interesting to check out.

Does anybody know of any method of dumping something like a debug to SD card?

Does core-dumping some process (like the one which is opening /dev/block/mmcblk0p* for any reason) would get us anywhere?

There's an easy solution, buy an unlock code. I've used cellunlocker.net about a dozen times and it always works. I think a One V unlock code costs $14 or something. Cheaper than what carriers charge (assuming they'll let you unlock at all) and you get the code in a couple hours or so at the longest.

So the tasks app on the One S syncs with Google Tasks. You can also choose to have Google Tasks show up on your calendar. My problem is every task I enter shows up twice in the calendar. I have tried all different settings in the tasks and calendar apps. This includes hiding all calendars except tasks, and they still show twice.

I'm at a loss as to what is happening. I checked Google Tasks online and there are no duplicates. Is anybody else experiencing this?

I am also having this problem.

I haven't found a fix for it yet, but if I do I will make sure to post back here.
[HTC One S] mvmv:
Same problem to me.

The only workaround I found was installing another PIM software (Jorte) and setting Tasks in Jorte only to local. But in this way they are not synchronized with anything.

I don't understand why HTC Sync or HTC Sync Manager synchronizes only calendar and contacts with Outlook and not tasks, this sounds crazy.
[HTC One S] gufoigor:
Same here

I have the same problem with my HTC one S. I'm contacting HTC, as this appears to be a bug in Sense. Both the duplicate entries appear to be originating as Tasks. When I try to delete one of the duplicates from calendar, both get deleted. Also, this appears to be a problem only with Gtasks; Exchange and Hotmail tasks work fine. Workaround for now is defaulting all new (non work related) tasks as Local. Just installed an update from HTC yesterday and the problem is still there.
