[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No chance of finding the IMEI from those details.

Simple solution, call your carrier. They'll have the IMEI. Ask them to block it so whomever has your phone can't use it, and if necessary you can give the po-lice the IMEI. Tho there's no way they're going to be able to find a stolen phone purely by having an IMEI. About 1 in 10,000 stolen phones are recovered by police. And unless you installed tracking software on the phone before it was stolen (or enabled remote tracking on a Samsung account, again before it was stolen), you can forget about going down that path (remote wiping it/tracking it).

The SGS2 isn't an iPhone.

Best you can do in this situation is have the IMEI blocked so the phone is useless to whomever has it. Unless it ends up in a country where the IMEI block isn't recognised (some less civilised countries don't recognise IMEI blocks from other more civilised countries) Tho this will soon be a thing of the past, in the next 12-18 mths the ITU will be putting in place global IMEI blocking, which means an IMEI blocked phone will be pretty much useless anywhere.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonasklam:
Hey guys! Thanks for all the info.

It turns out that the imei number was on the box :)

Actually, I had some tracking software on it before it got stolen, and I actually was able the find the phone number, name and adresse of the guy using my phone now, well girl actually. I have given all the info to the police and now I simply have to wait. I hope they can get it back, I think they should be able to with all that info :)

Thanks for your replies! :D

Im able to get my hands on this:

And I pretty much have one question to determine the purchase - would it root .. ? I guess that Superoneclick would do the job, presuming that chinese people are giving USB drivers with the device, but I would like to hear from someone who maybe already tried it. Does anybody even have the device .. ?

Hi I got the other version MTK6577 dual sim 480*854 px 4GB ROM. It's already been root using the method shown here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1847136

Con:

- camera is 5MP (burst to 8MP), very cheap flash

- GPU is overclocked (eat battery a lot while playing games)

- battery quickly get hot and depleted (need to tweak juice defender for optimal use)

- no HD video recording

- digitizer is plastic

- low signal/wifi reception
[General Questions and Answers] KingAmir:
Hey,

I think with these Chinese ripoffs, you are likely to have quite a few issues.

- Little support from XDA as not many would have it

- Not that reliable as it has to cut back somewhere

- No professional judgement seeing as no one has experience with it.

I would not recommend getting them.

Anyway, they usually run some sort of stock android with a pathetic overlay so I think that you will be able to root.

Thanks

Does anybody have it yet? Could you please leave your comments and first impressions here if you do?...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrADP:
The pen works very well on the note 10.1. It feels more natural than the s pen. I actually Bluetooth it to my galaxy note 5.3. Sound quality is excellent and the people I talk to can hear me very clearly. All in all a great device. Can you live without it? Absolutely, but it's fun to have.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voxano:
Thanks for the feedback.

1. Does this pen allow pairing with more than one device at the same time?

2. Does it house the 10.1 stylus inside, like the holder for the original N7000 Note did?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrADP:
No. As far as I can see it only pairs with 1 device. Can't read Chinese instructions though. It doesn't house the stylus. It's a separate stylus. Comes with its own bag of plastic nibs.

Where to order one
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Got mine off Ebay from Korea directly... No english instructions but then its not too hard to work out...

Charge until led turns blue, start bluetooth on Phone/Tablet, search bluetooth.

On pen, hold dial button for 3 - 10 seconds, tablet will pick up, Can't remember if I needed to enter pair code but "0000" usually works....
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bulbous:
I finally got my hands one one of these yesterday - awesome. I also got English instructions with mine :)

1. Yes it supports two devices at the same time (Multi-Point) I have mine paired with my Note 10.1 & my Note 2

2. Yes it holds an s-pen inside - there's some instructions for re-assembling it and a picture. I don't know if it's the full s-pen inside though and I'm not going to take it apart just to find out.

It's got the proper feel of a pen and is much nicer to write with than built in one. Works great with s-voice as well and sound quality is good.

My poor s-pen always stays in it's slot now.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hunter_Dreams:
And is not there any possibility of buying it from another country?? Maybe the shop have a web or something like that. Because the price is greatest.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiaotuo:
From this shop I doubt... in fact they don't have fixed prices and you can bargain. I have years of experience on this in China so not easy to fool. But I didn't find this pen in China and there I think no chance to bargain for such original products, at least not much. So I was suprise to find it here and be able to set a good price. I also bought the original flip cover. Or it just could be that they try to ripoff all the white faces they see :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadyDi:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voxano:
Right. Amazon and other usual suspects places have it, too. But the question is where to get a much better deal than $75-80?... without bargaining in Indonesia :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadyDi:
Update, there's 2 on Ebay.com right now. I think only 1 is under $75 AND a US seller. When I search I only want US sellers. Hope this helps. You can set up 'saved searches' and even 'notifier' when the item matches your wish.

Android Lost +1 !
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Hello all,

I have an idea and I would like to ask someone to prove or confute it.

Given a Desire S out of box, full stock. What if we downgrade it to the oldest RUU, and S-OFF with the Revolutionary way. install engineering HBOOT, and tries to restore its stock status (standard HBOOT, S-ON, unrooted etc). The question is: what if we upgrade it to the latest (2.3.5 w/ Sense 3.0) RUU? What will be seen in the bootloader's header? LOCKED or RELOCKED? Because if you unlock your phone via HTCDEV.com, the new software version (or how to call it) will record this somewhere, but downgrading to an older version this can't be seen (but we know it is there). So if it is only because of the behaviour of the latest software, can we circumvent it with a downgrade?

In other words (just to clear thing up):

known to void warranty: HBOOT 2.00.0002 --> unlock via HTCDEV.com --> fastboot oem lock --> bootloader shows RELOCKED (downgrading makes this disappeared, but comes back after upgrading to current version)

method in question: HBOOT 2.00.0002 --> downgrade to 0.98.000x --> unlock/S-OFF via Revolutionary --> relock/S-ON --> upgrade to HBOOT 2.00.0002 --> bootloader shows ???

Unfortunately I don't own a DS personally, but one of my friends do, but he doesn't want to put a custom ROM on his phone until he is sure it is possible to keep the warranty this way.

Any answer is appreciated, and of course thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
Already reported by several people on the forum. Will show RELOCKED. As you said yourself, the status bits don't change with downgrade, and when upgrading back - the new bootloader reads just what there was before the downgrade.
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
Thank you, but what really interests me is the oldest RUU. Is this bit set by this also? 'cause I understand what you wrote, this bit is there whether you are using the 1.28​.401​.1 or the 2.10​.401​.9, but is this bit set by both and read only by the latter? In this case it is a no go for my friend without void the warranty :)

So I'm curious does 1.28​.401​.1 also set this bit to "tampered"?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
This "feature" was implemented in Sense 3 update after the launch of htcdev.com. It is present on previous versions like 1.28.401.1, therefore nothing is read by the bootloader. But the flag is there and nobody managed to find and change it so far.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] craftman:
That's a pity. Then he has to wait for the offical ICS with Sense 3.6 which is not so far (hopefully).

Thanks for both of you for helping out a newbie.

Dear Gentlemen,

I'm trying to install 'RazoDroiD v4.0' ROM in my rooted phone, and right now i got stuck in the main screen (samsung) since 20min.

I read carefully the tutorial [GUIDE/HOW-TO] Beginner's "Getting Started" Guide...

And i followed the steps mentioned in it, i got a slight problem in the step " 8.Now that you have wiped all data, select “install zip from sd” from the main recovery menu, then “choose zip from sdcard”.

And i rebooted the phone on normal mode, accessed the SD card, changed the ROM's file name into update.zip (since i can not see that "install zip from sd" )

Rebooted the phone in recovery mode, and installed that update.zip, and it worked installed and it said welcome to "RazoDroiD 4.0", and stuck on reboot main screen (samsung).

Could anyone help me please??!

Thanks in advance

You do partition the SD Card and install it again. Before that all you want to save from the SD Card, you copy somewhere on your computer, USB or DVD. I think on music, pictures, videos, etc.

[HTC Sensation XL] martinmac1:
Hey guys,

I have searched and couldn't really find anything to pinpoint my issue.

I'm new here and i have a bit of a problem with my Sensation XL.

Ok first a little bit of a story (sorry), i was in Athens for 4 weeks, and i think the 'extreme' temperatures has buggered my phone.

Two weeks into the trip my phone was shutting itself down randomly and when i rebooted it, the battery was completely empty. This carried on for about a week until it decided not to bother switching back on again and the notification light was flashing red and green continuously.

I eventually managed to get the phone on, but the screen was extremely dark and the handset heated up to the point where it was too hot to touch.

I switched the phone on today, the screen is black but it goes on, but doesn't stay on for very long.

I have contacted HTC and it is being picked up for repair on Monday under warranty.

Now that i have bored you with that, i have a few questions:

1. They claim that if it is water damage it will not be repaired, now is it possible that maybe the humidity in Athens (water) damaged my phone, or was it just the heat, or has anyone had similar problems that may know what has happened?

2. Is there anyway that i can possibly get the data (pictures etc.) off of my phone and onto my laptop with a black screen, and also taking into account that it stays on for about 30 seconds max. before it switches off again? HTC sync can't find my phone when it's plugged in, but iirc you need to click something on the phone to sync it with the laptop?

I only need my pictures, all of my graduation pictures are on it. Please someone help? :'(

Also my phone is completely standard in every way, only the factory issued update has been applied.
[HTC Sensation XL] stona175:
You can try play with adb.

Install drivers from google sdk or my signature.

Download ADB File explorer

pull out the sim card.

turn on phone and connect it to pc.

If this not working than sorry but i think theres no other way to take it out.

Is one but you loosing warranty.
[HTC Sensation XL] martinmac1:
Thanks for the reply,

I clicked on the ADB File explorer link you posted and it says its no longer available.

I managed to get my phone on very briefly earlier, however it is so dark it is almost impossible to see, i did however manage to sync it to my computer and started transferring my pictures but then it got very hot and cut out again within the space of a minute and the notification light was flashing red and green.

I guess i'll just need to keep trying this and hope that my phone stays on long enough to transfer the photos. :(

I'm confused. This is a pen that:

> Does the samething as the S Pen already included

> It has a mic, speaker and answer-call button

> It connects with your phone via BT

> You can answer a call that got to your phone, while you're using the tablet???

So what is the justification. It's not like your phone is never handy and the tablet always is... Imagine this scenario:

So what did I miss? You can't even use this pen while the old S Pen is in the Note's silo. I've tried to use my other Wacom pen while the S Pen is in the hole and there is no way it gets registered.

So, somebody please enlighten me what benefits will I get if I shell out another 200 bucks on this pen.

I have Google voice. I thought it would be more convenient to answer the call over talk atone, not my phone, when say I'm in the other room. Or don't want to run to the other room to get the phone. My google voice always rings before my phone, too. Doesn't fit but my case has the s pen holder.

That being said, I think Samsung was trying to be innovative (or expand on an idea originally posed by Asus). Nifty feature. Some will see it as useful, others a toy.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] HasC:
I have one and mine came charged upon delivery. To pair the device, make sure unless you have the 3g version of the note 10.1 that you pair the pen with your handset. To pair keep your thumb/finger on the button that has the phone picture on it until it flashes, this shows that it is ready to pair.

Make sure the device that you are pairing it with is discoverable, if so, the device should find the pen and auto pair the two devices.
