hi,

i m resetting the device, after pushing volume - , and i dont see "serial" or "usb" on my splash screen(red,green,blue).

so i didnt connect my phone.

why?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
So... what CAN happen to a rooted device affected by this, such as a Note 2? If no third-party software (non-market stuff) is installed, the risks are minimal, yes?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mojorisin7178:
I am not 100% sure but it looks like chainfire was able to use that security hole to root the phone so I am guessing anyone else with his smarts can do the same and gain acess to your device and thus your info. I dont know if third party apps have anything to do with it or not I would think that they would be one part of the problem but I dont think that if you have no third party apps there is no danger. Again I am not an expert but that is what it sounds like to me. Anyone else care to explain further? For us dummies
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
With this vulnerability our phones can be rooted through application installs. Which means Attackers/Hackers can root and take full control over our phones if we install applications uploaded by them.

Preventive measure is to not install untrusted and new applications from unknown sources.

I am sure google will verify all applications at play store but it's better to wait for a day or two and see how things from here.

As this is critical vulnerability a patch from Samsung is expected soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
Just as I thought. Thank you for clarifying.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
So, I wonder if/when Samsung releases a patch/fix for this if it will come OTA for every device... or if our status is "Modified" will we be left out of the update... be interesting to know... guess we'll see how much Samsung loves us ;)

I tried to connect phone to computer as a charger and as with HTC sync manger then I tried with Fastboot but same problem occur error 170

USB connection Error
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
The only thing you could check before starting the ruu is to do a fsstboot command

Fastboot devices

If it comes up with the serial number the connection should be fine.

Try a reboot of the pc and run it again !

[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Hi,

so my phone doesn´t work after my attempt to upgrade to MIUI 4.

I started of being on the old, Ginger Bread based MIUI rom. So I updated my hBoot following this guide. After finishing all the steps I was not able to boot back into my original ROM, which I restored from the nandroid backup, as instructed. I got stuck at the HTC logo.

So I went to this MIUI thread in order to download the new ICS based MIUI zip. Unfortunately, the link provided in this thread is broken. So I went to the official English MIUI website and downloaded the latest MIUI rom. I flashed this, and now I get beyond the HTC logo, but remain stuck at th "mi" logo.

So i thought I might try to flash the kernel provided in the MIUI thread here on xda, but I just can´t seem to be be able to find any downloadable file at the location provided.

So I tried to reflash the kernel provided in the hBoot update guide with no success. I was stuck at the htc logo again.

Reflashed latest MIUI - stuck at "mi" logo again.

I kindly ask the community for help..........
[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Oh yea and I can access bootloader and 4ext recovery.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
You may need to wipe cache in the recovery after the hboot update.

Anyway you have already flashed stuff on top so it probably will not work.

The file from the official MIUI site requires the files in your new /lib partition to be present before installation. So if you desperately want MIUI go to miuiandroid.com and download it from there.

Or just use a Sense 4 of a JB ROM from this forum. Remember to make a full wipe in recovery before install.

And BTW there is a link in the Download section of the kernel thread. In your panic you haven’t noticed the "SHOW CONTENT" button :)
[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Wow,

so now the phone seems to be back to previous. Somehow the restore from nandroid worked out. Thanks God...

Still, I wasn't successful updating to MIUI 4.

The hBoot now shows:

*** LOCKED ***

[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Great, thanks for being with me. Well I'm used to MIUI and I'd like to stay with it.

Somehow I will work my way through to it hopefully. :)

I think I actually downloaded the latest MIUI zip from miuiandroid.com. I mean the one that didn't work for me.

Now I can see the link to the kernel. :)
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
I had stucked problem trying to install miui after chging my hboot, so i tried wiping everything 1 by 1(using 4ext) instead of everything except sd.

Then before installing i reboot recovery then did my install and it booted fine.
[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Didn't work. Thank s though.
[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Ok, so I can give it a second try and download the latest MIUI from miuiandroid.com once again and flash that (although I think that's what I did once already without success.) Do i get you right that this rom is supposed to be different from the one from the Chinese MIUI website?

Anyway, given that this probably won't work, are there any other suggestions/solutions? How about going through all the steps of the hBoot flashing guide once again?
[HTC Desire S] mimirom:
Anyone?

I will be finishing my contract with VZ in about 2 months and I have seriously been considering getting a R800at (AT&T Xperia PLAY) and unlocking the bootloader to also remove the simlock. So that I can use it on T-Mobile here where I live. VZ has sucky service in my area and I hate them anyways.

My question is are there anyone people here using the AT&T 4G (I know its not 4G but 3.5G Xperia PLAY) on T-Mobile and with TMo converting their 2G to AT&T 3G compatibility are you able to use the 3G service on your PLAYs?

I know the service coverage is all subjective to where you live, just curious if anyone is doing this and what their feedback / thoughts are on it.

Thank you in advance
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chery2k:
I have the R800a on T-mobile USA and im stuck on Edge which is 2g. If you want 4G or 3.5G for your play your stuck with At&t otherwise if you go to t-mobile usa your stuck with 2g on your R800at the same boat as me.

There's a list of current locations where T-Mobile support the 1900MHz band, you'll have to check it to make sure you're in one of those area, and to be on the safe side, not on the edge but within the city zone. http://www.androidcentral.com/tags/t-mobile

I live in Miami which is one of the supported location so I did exactly that. I cancelled my LG Nexus 4 preorder since it's taking a long time to ship and bought an R800i, talk about vast gap in performance. I will report on it once it get here, but I'm already certain it'll work in my area since already tested it on other devices.

Not sure if it's possible to unlock the R800at through Sony website method though.

I'm using the $30 100min and 5gb T-Mobile plan, usually keep an extra $10 deposited which give an extra 100min, and using the Vonage app to make free outgoing VoIP call.

My brother works for HP, but knows the Utah state Region Director. (Southern ID, and UT) With the deal I would be able to get a plan with 5 lines, 3 with 500 minutes and up to 5gb of data on each, then 200 minutes on the last two phones with only 200mb of data. As it would only be my wife and I, we would be able to set it up for about $45 for both phones with the 500 each, and 5gb of data for about $50-55 a month. Currently we are paying $120 a month for VZ and its service blows.

Yes, currently where I live there is no converted 2G from T-Mobile but eventually it will roll out. I am pretty sure I can live with 2G until its converted, couldnt be any slower then VZ where I live (50-70kbps)

Did some digging, this is

T-Mobile USA's spectrum

chart for 2G

850 MHz/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSPA 2G/3G

1900 MHz UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+ 3G/4G

AT&T Spectrum

Frequencies used on the AT&T Network

850 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE 2G

1900 MHz GSM/GPRS/EDGE 2G

850 MHz UMTS/HSPA 3G

1900 MHz UMTS/HSPA 3G

I realize that T-Mobile service is again, subjective, but I really do love this phone and despite borrowing a S3 for about a week, and a couple other phones, I really just dont have a strong desire to jump to another phone. I really enjoy this phone for what it was designed, gaming. And each time i use a a phone to play touchscreen gaming I want to scream.

On a side note, the Region Director did mention that he estimate sometime between second to 3rd quarter of next year where I live we should go live on the 2G conversion.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Actually 2G atleast on T-Mobile is more like average of 20-30kbps, at least from my experience. You will be able to use email and xda app, and slow webbrowsing, and Google Maps. Downloading apps from the Play Store is out of the question unless its small or you want to wait long.

Edit Note: Actually the speed is faster at 80-100kbps after speedtest.

I was considering rebuying the unlocked version of the S3 as well because of this 1900mhz support, but then there is a thread in its forum with tons of people S3 having hardware death.

As I am always around wifi, at home and or at work (I work about 60 hours a week) I dont generally download from the PLAY store via 3G. And its not VZ's terribly slow data that driving me nuts its their service, I have had so many dropped calls, my wife too (Droid X)

But I guess what I am asking is, when the conversion is completed in my area, would I then be able to have 3G on this device? I guess we wont know for sure until it happens, but again T-Mobile did start converting it to give unlocked iphones on their service 3G.... and to free up spectrum for the planned rollout of their own LTE network.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I will let you know when I get my R800i in a few days, but I'm pretty certain of it. Many people have been utilizing this such as ATT iPhone owners and T-Mobile 3G worked on my Samsung Captivate.

You mention R800i. While I am looking at the R800at. Should I be looking into the R800i rather then the R800at for T-Mobile in the USA?

Also any feedback you can provide when you get your R800i would be appreciated.

Here is whats listed as the bands for the R800i:

Band

GSM 850/900/1800/1900 (Quadband)

So guessing that with those bands in mind I should be looking into the R800i if I want to utilize T-Mobile USA's 3G network, and perhaps even maybe their 3.5...?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Actually the bands you listed are GSM bands, GSM are 2G.

The 3G bands for ATT and on the R800at are: 850/1900/2100MHz. Either having 850 and/or 1900 + 2100 support will get you 3G.

For T-Mobile, 3G bands are: 1700/2100 (known as AWS or UMTS). Some area have support for 1900 like we discussed. This is where the interlap come in and where unlocked phones that support 1900/2100 bands can get 3G on both T-Mobile and ATT.

There are different levels of 3G, the coverage area might be different. Lowest level usually is UMTS, have the widest coverage and use less battery, but slowest speed, I usually get an average of 3Mbps. Then there is HSPA and HSPA+, which have a large range of speed depending on the version (check Wikipedia). T-Mobile have Dual Cell HSPA which have theoretical capability of 42Mbps, but realistically you will get half of that, and not all devices support it, I get up to 26Mbps with this, outdoor and close to the cell tower of course. From experience, I find T-Mobile obviously have faster 3G speed, but sometimes poorer building penetration.

The Play support: HSDPA 7.2Mbps and HSUPA 5.76Mbps, so that's the max speed this device will be getting on 3G.

You can check the device specs on gsmarena.com for bands support, but they are not always accurate so beware.

This is also why I recommend Nexus phones, because the last two Nexus are pentaband 3G devices, which mean they can get 3G on every GSM carrier in the world. There are few pentaband devices and fewer good pentaband phones.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Well I got my R800i, but disappointingly it doesn't get 3G with T-Mobile, but I checked the spec again and it seem the R800i only support the HSDPA 900 / 2100 bands, I didn't realize this sooner since all other international phones I have bought do support the 1900 band so I just assumed.

But the AT&T version do support the 1900 / 2100 bands, so I'm still confident if you buy that version and figure out how to unlock it, you will be able to get 3G on T-Mobile in the 1900MHz supported areas.

I did a speedtest of the 2G speed and I get around 80-100kbps download speed. So about 10kilobytes per second.

Side note, on the dialer, you can dial: *#*#4636#*#* which will bring you to a menu where you can set which band the phone will use, although it is labeled by region (you'll have to press the Menu button to bring up the option).

So after that I went on ebay looking for an unlocked R800at. Found one, not great price, but it was at a pawn shop 1.5miles from my house so I picked it up.

Here are the results: (see attached images).

Somethings I found:

-You have to search for the network operators and select specifically the 3G T-Mobile network. Might need to manually enter the APN for data/mms to work.

-With stock AT&T rom, I only seem to see the phone switching between E (2G) and H+. Since HSPA+ coverage isn't as abundant and you might see the signal deteriorate quickly depending on your location coverage. Edit: I see the 3G and H logo with R800i rom, may be it was just cosmetic?

-With stock AT&T rom, I can't seem to log into Google's Market at all regardless with Data or WiFi while using the T-Mobile sim. Maybe a limitation ATT specifically put in? But this is no problem after flashing another rom.

-As expected, Bootloader Status: Not_Rootable. So I can not get into fastboot mode meaning it require the test point method to unlock the bootloader. Still, I can easily flash the R800i ftf which will allow the NXT rom to be bootable (the ftf that work for me is the R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_Enhanced). Then root it using "SuperOneClick", had to use x-Parts's CWM installer version 5 to correctly install cwm.

Still will have to fiddle with it more to see what else I can find. As for the R800i I will have to suck up the 15% restocking fee.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blu422:
How did you unlock it for use with t-mobile? I searched the forums to no avail. The only way I can find is to use a code you have to buy or you have to request through at&t and I don't have at&t so they won't provide me with one.

I can find ways to unlock the bootloader... is that the same thing?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
With the code your thinking of the sim unlock. Which you can get from AT&T, if you want the bootloader unlocked you need to get in touch with Alejandrissimo to unlock it... its a free service he offers.
