[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirtlessrabbit4:
OK, so I currently have a wifi aokp ics HTC flyer, iPod touch 3rd Gen jailbroken , hp touchpad dual booted with android and web os, and Samsung fascinate on miui 4 used only with wifi and has no plan of any kind, I bypassed activation. As you can see, I have a large collection of devices but do not have any cellular plans on them at all (my phone is a basic keyboard phone and I can't afford to pay 360 dollar a year data plan upgrade with Verizon, plus I don't want to worry about going over on data and being charged more). That being said, I want to try wp7 but don't know which devices I can use without a plan of any kind and just on wifi. Could someone clarify for me what my options are, if there are any, I have Googled it for a while without luck. Any help is appreciated, and thanks in advance! :) just a note though, I asked specifically about the HTC arrive and dell venue pro before because of the keyboard, but they didn't seem confident in their own forums. Again, thanks!

On Verizon you can't use an unlocked smartphone phone without adding data because it's cdma
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirtlessrabbit4:
I'm not talking about putting it on Verizon, I just said that was my carrier for my keyboard phone, no wishes to replace it. I just want to try wp7 in general and use it not as a phone but WIFI ONLY, like an iPod touch. I want no plan of any kind. This is possible on some androids, I've done it on the fascinate. So I just wanted to know my options.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohgood:
every single phone with wifi?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirtlessrabbit4:
Are you sure? If that's true, how do you bypass the cellular activation screen and go on with using wp7? There was a method to it with the fascinate, and you could simply hit the home button once on a custom from. Is this the case for wp7 too? Or are any unlock codes needed to do this? If there is a custom rom of wp7 for a phone, is it safe to assume it can be used without a plan of any kind?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirtlessrabbit4:
Hey I hate to repost, but want to find out what windows phones I can buy to try wp7 without a plan. Oh, and I'm not interested in wp8 yet since phones will be expensive and don't know what wp7 is

Thanks. Got everything running, except the external sdcard apparently isn't mounted. Anyone got a link for that? I'm up to 514, if that matters. I remember something about changing the vfolds.tabs, but that didn't seem to change anything.
[Dell Streak 7] giveen:
That was for ICS-B4 only.
[Dell Streak 7] jpmi23:
That explains why it doesn't work.

I'm trying the process over, to see if I can get the sdcard to recognize. Currently I have flashed back to 2.2, but the camera still doesn't see the external card. Is this the "read only" issue that I've seen a bit about?

EDIT: Re-flashed 2.2 Froyo, went through set-up, mounted internal and external sdcards. Upped to 3.2 (506), checked camera and it worked. Upped to 3.2 (514), checked camera and it works.

I think I'm done screwing with this... for now anyway.

No, "read-only" means your device will no longer boot or can be flashed.

Turning off device, battery in, holding volume up (fastboot mode) and connecting while pressing volume up to pc (led should turn blue)?

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
Okay, links first: PB31IMG.zip and PDM_4.08.605.15_release.zip

I was tooling around the intarwebs wondering if a 4.08.605.15 RUU had ever made itself available, and stumbled across this VZW Community thread. All the way at the last message I noticed a user linking to an RUU on dev-host.org.

So I'm thinking to myself, "Self, that's really unusual, especially for a message reportedly sent to the poster from HTC."

So I follow the link. It's going to what appears to be the 4.08.605.2 RUU. Slightly disappointing, but I decide to click on the username to see what else they might have publicly posted. There's a number of interesting files available, but inside the ROMs folder I notice a recently uploaded PB32IMG.zip of an appropriate size for our phones.

So I download it.

Inside most of the files are timestamped May 29, 2012, and the android-info.txt file contains the following:

modelid: PB3120000
cidnum: VZW__001
mainver: 4.08.605.15
hbootpreupdate:3

:good:

The included hboot appears to be 1.07.0000 (!!!). There's also a ramdisk.img and the radio.img matches the 2.15.10.12.20 radio I had (as opposed to 2.15.10.07.07 that came with 4.08.605.2). boot.img, recovery.img, and system.img are all different as well, but I don't have anything immediately handy at work to mount the images and diff their contents with.

Now, this might be a fake, but it's a lot of work to go through to build.

I kinda need my incredible since it's my phone and I'm not down with guinea-pigging my real device on stuff like this, but I thought some devs or more intrepid users might want to check it out and see if it's legit.

Should that link go down, I kept a copy.

Edit: Added second link to PDM_408.605.15_release.zip. This zip file contains both the PB31IMG.zip (SHA-1 identical to the first link) and the RUU Utility (amongst other things) digitally signed by HTC. I'm pretty sure this is legit. Got a copy of this too...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
It does appear to be legit. But im not sure how to tell for sure other than finding someone who is s-on, and seeing if it flashes.

Im gonna flash it and see what happens, but im s-off.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
Let me know what you find. Would there be a way back to s-off if one unlocks their bootloader?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
It does flash 4.08.605.15, so I'm gonna say its the real deal. Great find.

What do you mean way back to s-off? As in can you get s-off by unlocking the bootloader, or if you unlock the bootloader will you lose s-off.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
Sorry, that was rather obtuse. I was just thinking that if one was s-on and flashed the RUU, would they be able to regain s-off? I haven't had to research rooting an Inc in a looong time, though I suppose with an unlockable bootloader it wouldn't be as much of an issue. (Oh look, you have a thread about how to do it! How about that.)

I wonder what else is posted on that account that nobody else has seen before?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
I looked at all the files, and this ruu seems to be the only file for the incredible.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
Not just for the Incredible, but for other phones too. There's a lot of what appear to be RUU zip files for devices that have been recently uploaded. The Evo 4G, Evo 3D, Amaze, and Sensation at a glance.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NvrBRd:
Help

ardax and cmlusco,

Do you guys happened to keep a copy of the RUU for this version

(4.08.605.15)? - the RUU file in the 2nd link is no longer valid.

Here's my situation and hope it will help someone in this community:

I was new to this. I got an old Droid Incredible from someone. The device

was installed with various program and was reported 'space low'. I add

a 16GB SD and installed Maps.Me lite. Not long after that the thing crashed.

I was trapped in the boot loop. :(

I was able to unlock the bootloader. :):) But I was not able to get to s-off, :( since

it seems that it requires the device to be able to boot up or enter into the

debug mode, which I did not do when the device was OK.

I played around and the flash of clockworkmod is of no effect. The flash

of system, boot, and recovery all failed to bring the the device out of the

boot loop. :confused: I tried some SD PB31IMG.zip and all failed. The only thing I

have been able to do is RUU with the 4.08.605.2, which downgraded from

4.08.605.19. Earlier version give me the HBoot version error.

Since the 4.08.605.2 is a small file about 8MB. It may not change the

system much to bring the device out of the boot loop and since the

only thing I have been successful is with RUU. If you guys still have

the RUU around, I think it may do the trick for me - I have been

look abound on the web but haven't find a copy of it.

Thanks.

Duncan
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
The RUU is still available at http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/

I think that's cmlusco's site.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NvrBRd:
ardax,

Thanks for quick reply.

Sorry for a newbie's question:

I thought RUU is a .exe file that can execute under the Windows?

For a zip file, all I know how to handle it is put in a FAT32 SD card

and boot the Incredible into HBoot - which I have tried for some

PB31IMG.zip file and haven't have any luck - I do not know the

reason why it is failed.

Is doing this way with zip file the same as RUU?

Thanks.

UPDATE: I just tried the zip file by putting it on a FAT32 SD card and

boot into fastboot. Still reporting No Imange or Wrong Image.

-- Not working. Still trapped in the Boot Loop.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardax:
Try flashing from fastboot then. I don't remember if this will work with an unlocked bootloader though.

The basic gist of it is this:

* Reboot into bootloader

* run "fastboot.exe oem rebootRUU"

* Once you're in RUU mode, "fastboot.exe flash zip PB31IMG.zip" (The zip file needs to be on your PC.)

* You'll most likely get an error pretty quickly telling you to try again (right after the hboot pre-update), so rerun the previous command

* With all good luck, watch the flash go for a few minutes

* When it's done run "fastboot.exe reboot"

You should be back to stock. Now you can re-unlock the bootloader if needed and/or try to gain S-OFF.

If you're not comfortable with this procedure, I'd recommend looking for more explicit step-by-step instructions.

Alright so I picked up my N7 yesterday as a more portable alternative to my Transformer Prime. I'm using it primarily for entertainment and social networking where as the Prime will be my productivity tablet. My question is if I'm walking around listening to music with the N7 in my back pocket, will I be able to use a pair of headphones with built in audio controls for the music? If so does anyone recommend a particular pair? Looking for in-ear ones and preferably ones that won't hurt my College student wallet. Personally I'm not a fan of the big Beats headphones primarily because of the fact that most kids that wear them all the time are tools and I don't want to be associated with that stereotype.

A bunch can be found for $30-70. Get at it! :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZImmortal:
Unfortunately, the headphone jack doesn't have mic support, which is needed for headset control support. I can't understand why they would leave this out, and mic support was even advertised as a feature on Asus' product page. I'm not sure if they've changed the page since the last time I've looked at it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmikeb92:
Is it something that a firmware update will fix? I know with the TP there were a lot of things that were added with firmware updates. I looked into the Bluetooth headsets on amazon and I think I found one I would use, but I'm still not crazy about the size of them. Even the smaller in ear ones.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZImmortal:
This isn't the kind of feature that a software update can add. The Nexus 7 doesn't have the necessary hardware.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmikeb92:
Ah I see. Well I guess I'll just trap a pair of BT headphones off Amazon. Any one have a suggestion on which ones to go for or to avoid?

Hi all,

I need help regarding connection problem of my I9300.

I updated my SGSIII through kies from LE8 to LH1 ( Using Firmware initialization, as Kies was giving message that it cannot update this phone)

But after update i have no network connection at all. There aren't any insert sim warnings anywhere, i just have a circle with a diagonal line through it in the notification bar where the signal bars usually sit.

If i hold the power button to bring up the shut down/flight mode menu,I can turn on flight mode but after getting in flight mode this option is diasabled. And i cannot turn off flight mode from power menu.

I can disable it from settings, but that option also disables and only enables if i exit from that menu and enter again.

I have re installed .LE8 via Odin but it is same.

My phone is unlocked and i can see carrier name in status bar.

Also it does not search any available networks from menu.

But when i got to network operators --> Search networks, Searching flashes for a second and goes off.

When i choose Network operators --> Select automatically it says registered to network immediately

Also power menu keeps telling that flight mode is ON even if i turn it off from setting. and this option in power menu is also disabled unless i reboot. After switching to Flight mode first time from menu it is disabled.

I did factory reset but it did not help
