Right... Sounds like it just locked up and rebooted...

I was wondering if it is possible to SIM unlock the Inc2 without buying a $4 code.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
If you are using the phone on an active account then vzw might give the code to you. I believe that they require 6 months of good payment history. Just call them and say you are going to travel out of the country. It can't hurt to ask them...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joefrog1996:
4$ is a lot isn't it...... Maybe if you ask nicely Verizon will give it to you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] kill00:
I'm actually not with Verizon, I'm on Pageplus, but wanted to switch to Tmobile.

Its not about the $4.

I was simply wondering if it is possible via software to unlock the phone or is it simply hardware locked?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
I believe it is hardware locked. I could be wrong though. I know that I have seen websites that claim to give unlock codes away for free. I would worry about how safe these are though. They could be cloning ESNs or who knows what else...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Letitride:
IF, if you can find the proper, correct 8 digits unlock code to input - you will be set to go, you get up to 5 chances, or is it 10 chances before it's permanently bricked (destined for eBay as quality pre-owned parts for sale, LOL)

For the price of a premium Starbucks double latte, you could try - or give it up & give $4 to them to try (most offered a refund with video documentation of failed efforts) - success had been reported.

On the other hand, I believed VZW changed the factory/default 8 digit codes (OTA ??) and stored the new code, unique to each IMEI in their own SQL/database - accessible to global support CSR ... I understand it's difficult when you are no longer on VZW being on PP now.

We unlocked ours in under 10 minutes by dealing with VZW as account owner in good standing, free, yada yada - YMMV, of course.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dr_Wolodya:
What IMEI of your phone? - I will try to get your code from Verizon...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
OP, DO NOT POST YOUR IMEI ONLINE! IF YOU FEEL THAT YOU CAN TRUST THIS PERSON SEND IT THROUGH PM.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Triscuit:
Thank you for posting this, I was going to when I got out of work, it is dangerous to post your IMEI in a public forum, its like giving everyone your social security number for your phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prachall:
I know this may not be the correct place to ask this but....is it a viable choice to use my dinc2 on att? I've heard different stories but the posts I've read were a little dated. If not could somebody suggest one that does work well with att? I don't want to buy a new phone because I can just trade around with Craigslist until I get the one I want lol. Thanks in advance for any info.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cstone1991:
You probably should have started a new thread, but yeah you can use the phone once its unlocked. I think you only get 2g but I'm not positive.

If you are going to unlock your phone, please use HTCimeiunlock.com . I used that site. By the way, you wont be able to get 3g speed only edge :(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Dr_Wolodya:
ohoho :laugh: and what I will be do with your supersecret imei code?

Ask in google - it have tons of useless imei codes...

P.S. I can give you imei of my Nokia if you will feel happy after that.

[HTC One X] jiazhen:
OneX EU Version vertical dark line on the middle of screen.

For me, I think it is related to LCD signal quality, maybe panel problem or screen cable problem. Anyway, it should be a HW problem.

The dark line is about 1 or 2 lines. It is okay with white screen, but has problem with light blue, yellow, green and light red pictures. It is not a constant problem. I can get the line removed by changing color with flashlight app. Sometimes, the dark is disappeared when you change screen colors in the app. Then it will come again at sometime.

Reboot, no help.

Anyone encountered such problem?
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
does sound like hardware, can you take a picture?
[HTC One X] jiazhen:
Attached pictures, you can see the line on blue screen and yellow screen. But nothing with white screen.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
you could try safe mode (i think you have to hold volume down when restarting the device, until you feel it vibrate a few times), and then a factory reset if safe mode doesn't help, if it still persists, i'd go for replacement/repair

does look like hardware, although strange it doesn't show on white screen, but then again a dead pixel wouldn't show on a black screen, so can't rule out hardware
[HTC One X] jiazhen:
Many thanks for your advice. Since there is no such issue reported on the net, I just shared findings here. Maybe I will try factory reset later when I get backup ready.
[HTC One X] jiazhen:
Have tried factory reset, no help.

I also can see this issue even on boot screen. So it is related to HW. But also I can make it fix sometimes with some screen fake out conditions. (by "color flashlight" tool).
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

It is faulty, simple as that unfortunately.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little-vince:
I had bought a white 16gb galaxy note and it finally arrived today. :)

well i couldn't help but notice that out of the 16 gigs, only 11 of it is accessible.

obviously when you buy a 4gb usb, it really only has like 3.8 gb or something, but this is missing a hefty 5 gb.

is this normal?

what size phones have you guys got and how much of it is actually usable?

thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rulinglionadi:
The os of your pc takes up a huge chunk

Similarly 5 GB is reserved for OS or other personal ****..lol

My point is...ITS NORMAL
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav quietly brilliant:
1 gb is for android itself, 3 gb is for the application to be stored on phone and remaining 12 gb(11.07 gb) is for your personal stuff
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little-vince:
the thing is i realised my phone was shipped from hong kong so the first thing that i think of is, oh crap! must be a fake or a dud or has crap stuff in it.

glad to hear its normal.

but how much memory varies between the devices?

does everyone have 5 gigs missing or do some have like 3 or 4?

also, does it depend on what rom you're running too?

like if you're running a really light rom, naturally there should be more free space right?

EDIT:

oh! thanks for the info. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rulinglionadi:
Its the same for everyone....

Not only this...i remember my Nokia X6 having the same...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little-vince:
awesome, thanks for the info. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiceMrMustard:
I'm not really sure how much was available when I got my Note but this doesn't seem odd to me.

Also this model has 3 storage areas. There's what's labeled as the "phone", then the "SD" (so that's the 16 gigs of primary storage) which are presumably a micro SD card inside the phone. And then there's the secondary SD which is what you can insert next to the battery (up to 32 GB from what I gathered).

However, getting apps to use one or the other is fairly tricky. Sometimes you have to move stuff by hand.

Note that finding cheap 32gig cards is easy online (for 48gigs - more or less- of storage).

im just tying to make sure that my phone is "normal" do your guys's phone also get hot if you are on max brightness browsing the net and playing with the phone and such?

edit- sorry if its a stupid question, but coming from the att one x that never got as hot (comparing) so just want to make sure.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] CQCmaster:
Same here... funny thing is, when i use Adama kernel where i overclock to 1890, it's less hot oppose to stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ktrotter11:
Not sure or even interested enough but I think it's just normal heat production from the amoled screen.

I'm probably extra wrong but oh well

I found a good site that has low prices on i9000 cases (which also fit the i777) and free shipping. Has anyone else ordered from here/ confirm its legitimate? http://www.savingelectronics.com/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
i9100 cases do not fit i777 correctly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jt.61:
The top mic hole is a little different then the i777. So you would have to cut out a hole. Also there will be an extra hole for strap hole on the i9100, which the i777 does not have.

If you want similiar cases, buy them from eBay because there is a good variety and its very cheap.

Something is fishy here..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
Your free to think what you like. I actually think we ported it around the same time but from different builds. Head over to Tincandroid you'll see for yourself. Only reason theirs was posted b4 mine was that I was waiting for approval from ParanoidAndroid to post the port.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahausrath:
We have ports from both builds actually, and we'll release a from source soon. I really don't think his point was that you or us ported it first, it was that there's no reason for two bud... both being the same. We are keeping ours original, with the goal of getting it official (as we've lead the way in doing multiple times)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] oikhlail11:
You are correct sir! Now here's another question what's "fixed" about the gapps? Why can't we use the ics signed gapps zip ??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gs2usr:
You can install R2 by itself without having to be on R1,

Also the fixed gapps fix the problem with the play store not been compatible due to the custom DPI values.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] oikhlail11:
So in a sense the old ics gapps should work? I mean play store will fc and then can't you change dpi in paranoid android settings to make it work?

Edit

Here's some things I was wondering.. how do you switch back and forth between cm9 and paranoid android style notification drawer? When I first installed r2 I had a regular notification drawer at the top and as many toggles as I wanted. And its nothing crazy but think you can fix lock screen shortcuts to show fully? Even after setting dpi to stock (phone) I can't assign the bottom half of the lock screen with shortcuts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rkub:
Can anyone put up a mirror/put in their dropbox and share the Fixed GApps zip? I keep trying to dl but it never gets past 20 or so megs and when I start it is reeeaaallly slow and stays around 2-6 hrs left... Ok now it only gets to about 3 megs at most then says it's finished...

Ok quick question, are both of the GApps links on the 1st post the same file? Only 1 says fixed on the op but when I try to dl they both have the same filename?

Thanks for the file lenny! Ok, now that I have all the files to flash the rom, couple more questions...lol

1) The 1st post says that you need to be on CWM Touch, I use TWRP now. Has anyone flashed this rom using TWRP? Is this ok, or do I need to go back to CWM Touch?

2) Do I need to be on a certain rom to flash this? Chimaira needs you to be on AOKP/AOSP/CM9 before flashing, is this a requirement here as well? I have a backup of Chimaira and AOKP on my phone that I can restore to if those will work...

Yes its my first time but the problem 'WAS' I wasnt seeing my ext. sd in CWM but now its working haha ^^

Also, in paranoid settings, do I change the dpi for settings since that is where I cant seem to set up the lock screen?

Thanks~

Edit* never mind found the post about the lock screen.. I guess I wasnt the only one haha Thanks guys

Also few more bugs

1. When sending Korean text using Google Korean keyboard, the receiver gets it as ? marks and boxes, but if there is some alphabets it is fine.

maybe a radio problem??? I am on UCLE2 and didnt have this with sky ics.

2. I use beautiful widget and it gets network error when trying to find skins. I tried to using the stock phone settings but still get "error during download".

A little off topic,but I know over at Galaxy Nexus PA Thread,there is a seperate PA fixed rom for bug issues if it occurs. I don't get why we don't have one here. On the 2.16 i just did an update over the older version, wipe cache/dalvik, installed gapps without wipe/factory.

Only known issues I had was the only 3M on the cam app which was fixed, PA wallpaper app crashing still pending, going on youtube on Chrome i get some sort of screen glitch every now and then.

You probably have the Play Store set to a non-standard density setting use one of the supported settings LDPI (120), MDPI (160), HDPI (240), or XHDPI (320 DPI)

The widget issue may be caused by installing the ROM and not formatting "System". Everyonel follow my install instructions I posted with the download link to prevent all these crazy issues.

Roger

---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------
