[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cowfunone:
I am trying to get my ATT Note 2 i317 unlocked. It looks like there are 2 ways to do it. Cable unlock vs. code unlock.

I have code unlocked phones before, and it works fine. Looks like the cable unlock is a hack to the same end. It is a cheaper way.

Does anyone know if the cable unlock is a good way to unlock, or if there may be consequence? Is it worth saving the $15?

Thanks.

Sim unlock ? Check the recent threads for a phone code to bring up internal unlock. Seems to be working well for many people. And its free!

ROM, modem version? It's difficult to help with no knowledge of your device. Here is a thread for this method though that most likely answers these for you.

ROM is stock. though I rooted it. baseband version is i317ucalj2. thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
The cable method is slightly sketchy, because you will be giving a stranger complete access to all personal information on your pc and phone. If you trust the person, or can verify their reputation, why not?

If you are with AT&T and are in good standing, you can ask for your unlock code for free. It takes two days or less to get it.

But you have the correct modem installed (J2) to perform the above listed steps. If you followed them you should be unlocked. You would have to verify it by using another carrier's Sim card.

Note 2 unlocking woes

Will this method also work on a stock Note 2 i317? I have searched for two days now for a way to unlock my Note 2 with no luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jacobh25:
It fails for me too. That code just gives me an error "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"

It's an ATT note 2, GT-N7105. I'm running Liquid smooth 3.2 with the kernal that comes with the rom. The baseband is I317UCUBMJ. I don't get it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rangercaptain:
The modem (baseband) has to be J2. It's the only firmware with the unlock menu.

Hi guys, new to XDA-DEVELOPERS, really sorry but just like a real NOOOB! i tried to S-OFF on my htc desire with AlphaRev live cd.

Everything went well until step 3, live cd says "WAITING FOR FLASH TO COMPLETE" for nearly 2 hours.

So out of frustration i pulled the usb lead, oooOOPPPS!

Now it boots up into bootloader only and nothing more, every time i power up into the android bootloader again and again!!!

I have tried a factory reset with the bootloader which works fine but when it powers up again it goes back into the bootloader

I have since tried REVOLUTIONARY.EXE , when i connect the device to the computer the program does not recognize the device so that i can get the serial number for the beta key

I would really like someone to help out here, the phone was excellent when it was working it had the ANDROID 2.3.3 INSTALLED with GINGER VILLAIN.

All this stupidity cos i wanted the S-OFF on the device, ( sorry guys, just furious at myself)

In future i will always remember the old motto "IF ITS NOT BROKEN, DON'T TRY AND FIX IT!)

So please, all possible solutions and comments welcome even if it's slagging me off.

[Desire General] desirebravo:
Thanks you, as I have said firstly, i am new to all this, secondly the htc desire device is in loop mode and starts up into bootloader splash screen, the phone doesn't boot up.

Please correct me, i think my selection would be guide 2 "S-ON" can't boot recovery/phone won't boot up- and to follow these instructions, but

you have said that i need to make a GOLDCARD but if the phone doesn't boot up then how would i make a goldcard?

I have downloaded the RUU, and because i am newbie with all this, anyway you can explain the full procedure in detail?

Really sorry to be noob!

Thanks
[Desire General] jmcclue:
Put sdcard into another phone or use the 2.3 gb upgrade from HTCDev because u wont need a goldcard for that. U can get the 2.3gb upgrade in bortaks guide also, go down to resources.

To run the ruu, simply plug in ur phone to computer while in bootloader and run the ruu (double click it) make sure u have the drivers installed on ur computer for ur phone. All available in bortaks guide like stankyou said answer is there.

Thanks JM,

As i don't have access to another htc desire phone, i have opted for the 2.3 upgrade from HTCDev and is now downloading, and i will follow the instructions supplied with the download and let you know how i get on.

Just to confirm, open zip/rar file connect phone to computer and run upgrade file following instructions and hopefully the device should start up as normal!!?

Thanks again.

It was easy as you said, just followed the onscreen instructions and after just 5 minutes i heard this wonderful htc start up tune and i was over the moon thanks to you guys!!!

Promise i won't dabble with the phone again unless i am 100% sure i can do it!
[Desire General] desirebravo:
By the way are there any better RUU's that can give me more internal storage, as it is with android 2.3.3 i'v only got 156mb left on my htc Desire Bravo, but are easy to install, or should i just leave alone?

Thank again
[Desire General] jmcclue:
Nope. Thats the problem with htc desire, low space. If u were to go s-off (security off) then u would be able to change hboots which will give u more space and u can flash custom roms. Check the Desire all things root guide in my sig. Loads of info there plus if u decide to go s-off then u can use "revolutionary". There a guide on how to use it in that Desire all things root guide.

So the first thing really is basically read guides so u have an idea of what ur doing. S-off & root using revolutionary is very easy and straight forward. Read the guide :)

[Desire General] desirebravo:
Hi Andy, first of all thanks for all the info and guides.

I have done nothing but read up on the whole process of S-OFF>>>ROOTING>>>FLASHRECOVERY etc.

I have taken the big jump and now i have S-OFF with Revolutionary and the this is the HBOOT-6.93.1002

I have downloade the flash recovery img (AMON-RA) and UNREVOKED

Followed the instructions and selected the custom image file (amon-ra), Unrevoked goes through the paces and stops with a message "waiting for root" (safe to start if this doesn't happen) then the phone just restarts as normal.

I checked apps folder there is a superuser icon, but when i boot into bootloader and select recovery, the phone shows black screen with a green circle (arrows in opposite) very briefly then a black screen with a red triangle over the phone.

I have retried the process but no luck, i don't know what i am missing, guidance would be appreciated!

Thanks MAT
[Desire General] jmcclue:
when u run revolutionary u should just select yes to install clockworkmod recovery. re run the revolutionary program and select yes to install cwm recovery.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] desirebravo:
Sorry Andy, i read elseware to say NO to the install

I now have the Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 installed and at this stage i have backed up my system in case!

Would the next step be to ROOT the device or am i barking up the wrong tree

Thanks MAT
[Desire General] jmcclue:
nope. ul need root, its simple. in that guide theres a superuser.zip file. download it and then boot in to recovery and choose install from sdcard and flash the .zip file and ul be rooted.

and have a good look at all the roms.

+ click 4ext recovery updater apk in my sig n flash 4ext recovery using the app, i know u got cwm recovery but 4ext is way better and ul need to partition sdcard once uv picked a rom

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] desirebravo:
Hi, JM, just to let you know i successfully installed a custom rom (mildwild) working ok!

Is it as easy to install the roms with 4ext or are there some which will need other additions e.g; HBOOTS, KERNELS etc?

Thanks MAT
[Desire General] jmcclue:
Did u flash 4ext recovery via the app yet?

I wouldnt worry bout kernels yet, but they r easy to flash, just install zip like u did with the rom. (install zip from sdcard)

Hboots r a different matter tho, ul have to learn ADB & Fastboot commands or u could use the PB99IMG method. Google "Alpharev" to learn bout them.

First thing u need to do is flash 4ext recovery. Ur gona need to partition ur sdcard at some point.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] desirebravo:
Hi, thanks

Sorry, "flash 4ext recovery"!? I think i have but not sure now, I installed 4ext recovery to the phone and then went into recovery to install the rom, once into recovery it asks if i want to update, i then select yes and it updates, then installed the rom.

Secondly you say partition sd card what would this be for? i can always read the guides on how to.

Sounding like a Nooob again!!:o
[Desire General] desirebravo:
Hi JM, I hope you haven't given up hope on me:fingers-crossed:

Yes 4ext is flashed to the phone if that is what u mean!?

SDcard has now been partitioned after a good read up about it:D

Thanks MAT.
[Desire General] jmcclue:
haha no. glad u got it done. what size did u partition ur sdcard? recommended is usualy 1gb (1024) to 1.5gb (1524) ext4. (Those sizes are using 4ext recovery)

anyway looks like ur all done. S-off / rooted, sdcard partitioned, 4ext recovery installed... Have fun flashing roms. Just make sure always have a nandroid backup saved (just incase) and full wipe before flashing a rom - format all partitions except sdcard + wipe dalvik.

Oh yh google Alpharev and read about hboots, u dont need to change but sometimes its best too, depending what rom ya wana use so u get the most data (internal) space u can.
[Desire General] desirebravo:
Hi JM,

Yep all thanks to xda-development and guys like you who make it all worthwhile, so a big :good: :good: :good: up to you!

It's been a good journey, although sometimes you can do too much and get all wrong! like i did a few times.

SLOW and STEADY is the only way and yes the golden rule BACKUP NANDROID!!!

I have partitioned the sd card 1024 (fat32) and 1524 (ext4)

I've got HBOOT -6.93.1002, is this a custom HBOOT? and will it work with most ROMS? and same question for the radio, the following is what i am using RADIO-0-5.17.05.23

I installed a couple of different large size roms but didn't work, (ACEMOD 007) and (COOLDROID REVOLUTION) they booted up to the splash screen and that was it!, i got no further loadup and no use of buttons or screen etc, so backed up to my original working rom! (thank god for backups!)

Thanks MAT
[Desire General] jmcclue:
Ur radio is the latest so thats fine. Ur hboot will be stock as u havnt changed it. What hboot u have will be in pink at the top of bootloader.

When u partition ur sdcard with 4ext recovery u should choose this -

1524

Skip

Skip

ext4

That way ul have 1.5gb ext4 partition which is perfect.

About those roms, make sure they support stock hboot. Also before u install a rom make sure in recovery u goto

Wipe/format

Format all partitions except sdcard and wipe dalvik.

Thats a must before u install any rom

[Desire General] desirebravo:
Brilliant JM!

That is exactly what i've done and believe it or not i have just installed what you have changed to RUNNYMEDE AIO and just working fine!

422mb install and still 127mb of space (internal memory)

:highfive:
[Desire General] jmcclue:
To get the best out of that rom, its best to use CM7r2 hboot and in aroma setup, choose customize and then u can pick INT2SD-S then ul be left with 1.1gb internal memory ;)

Click ADB & Fastboot in my sig to learn about fastboot commands and how to set it up and google "Alpharev" for hboots and more info.

Theres no rush tho, just get used to being s-off n rooted and do some reading bout it.

Powered up the device this morning and a couple of times it went into freeze mode, so i had to pull the battery!

and also splash screen seems to have a lag, when i roll the splash screen it's slow to level out and when i move phone side to side the splash screen also moves with the phone, is this normal for this rom?

do you know if anyone has this rom with the blue glass theme that works on the htc desire bravo? (Blue Glass v4.0.3 For Runny v4.0 w/ Sense v3.5 - Updated!!!!

It looks pretty good, I downloaded the theme, it loads up ok with with 4ext recovery, but on bootup i don't get anything different.

Maybe there is full rom download link you know of, or is there nothing like this for the desire.

htc desire help

Hi, JM!

i need some help with a another HTC DESIRE BRAVO i purchased, i got the S-OFF and ROOTED but some where along the process of installing a fresh RUU i messed up!

The phone now boots to black screen with HTC in the middle of the screen and a triangle with an exclamation mark in each corner of the phone.

I have searched and found some info in BORTAKS GUIDE section 5, followed the instructions but nothing happening.

I also tried HTCdevs 2.3 RUU upgrade but the utility fails and gives me an error code (152) "unable to upgrade image"

"please try again with the correct RUU"

The present image i have is 2.29.405.5

I am sorry to have to follow up from this thread as i have not yet figured how post a new thread, perhaps you can push me in the right direction!
[Desire General] jmcclue:
to create new thread... go to "Desire Q&A" then towards the top left is a yellow box saying "NEW THREAD" click it and post ur problem there.

One quick question... why if u s-off & rooted it did u run an RUU?

in the new thread u make, post ur bootloader info.... Bravo PVT?? Hboot?? etc etc you will get better, faster answer

the N7 has a magnet built in for that, I doubt that would be put in a phone

[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
So, after much deliberation, we have decided go ahead with the following plan...

When a new device like this comes out, it can be tough on users who are otherwise orphaned until a new board is made (or are left to scrounge in the Misc android board, where ideas can be lost quickly). With this understanding, it has been agreed that for the time being, the Nook Color boards will play host to the HD and HD+ users. I understand this may come with some tension, especially NC only owners, who may have to wade through extra threads to find what they want.

At this time, we must all be understanding, and work together to keep the board running as smooth as possible. To help do this, as of this post, HD posts will be allowed again (and closed threads re-opened), with the following provisions:

1) Any HD thread must be clearly tagged with a "[Nook HD+]"

2) Any HD thread not tagged will be closed (trying to manage two forums in one is a bit much.. if you can't tag it right, it will be closed)

3) Lets try to keep new threads to a minimum. This is still the NC board, and I do not want to see it taken over totally with HD threads. Unless it really needs a new thread, please keep it in one of the existing threads.

I hope we can all make this work; please contact me if you have any questions or problems.

Also, if you haven't, please make your voice heard on the official request thread - it may not help, but it sure can't hurt.. ;)
