don't think a turbo sim will work, if phone is not sim unlocked, but I could be wrong

what I remember is people complaining, that they burn out after a few weeks, if much data is used
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
I have a stupid Question are they any way to bypass sim unlock? Could i use one of my other droid 2 globals and just make a backup? and run it on rsd lite are something? i dunno my sis is upset that hers dont work we waiting on ebayer see if he will let her send it back.
[Droid 2 Global General] :
You can't do that that simple, that's a hardware issue and no amount of flashing can fix that.. there really isn't any way other than turbo sim, which is more of a temporary solution than anything, or sigma key (~$150 USD).
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
Hello are they any way to get 4g on the phone? im picking up H with Up and Down arrow thats it....? thanks
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
no 4g on a956, can't remember what h stands for, its a type of 3g
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
H is HSPA, High Speed Packet Access. It's often called 3.5G due to higher speeds compared to UMTS.

…For a CDMA user, HSPA is virtually “4G”. ufufu
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
last Question and ill stop bugging yall and thank u for all the help more appreciated now my battery life on droid 2 is not good at all.. Are there anything i can do? i done tryed battery saver pro app and some free apps etc.. Are they any other types of battery that will fit it from other driods? if i wanna buy another battery and i was told from the 2.3.4 android is why the battery life drains isnt so good of an android thanks
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
to get best battery life

use stock rom, remove all bloatware

see 606 bloatware thread, don't install widgets, use data saver option, don't turn screen on

i never have been able to do any of that
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
I have 8gb internal memory and most of the time i have to have a sd card in to install games like dead trigger and etc... Anyway around these? i rather install most my apps on market on phone save my sd for music and photos.thanks
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
some apps that default to sd card, can be moved

use system app settings or titanium backup pro

but games that create separate files/folders, I don't think they can be moved easily

you can look at this

Hello i have another Question lol http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...acking-tweaking-3g-settings-radio-driver.html I did all of the frist steps ro.ril. ones

i dont get a extra empty line at the end. they mean at the end of my scrpit just space down then hit save? im looking for faster 3g speeds etc
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
I think that hack only works on gsm
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
Im using GSM only sim card LOL i just dont get what they meant by leave empty space
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
not empty space, leave an empty line at the end

like

1

2

end

in this case the 3rd line is last and empty
[Droid 2 Global General] tone4life:
so id do these

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.hep=1

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28

ro.ril.enable.a53=1

ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295

ro.ril.htcmaskw1=14449

ro.ril.hsupa.category=9

these would be empty space just move my arrow from the =9 down to these line<<< save and exit?
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
yes that should do it
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:

[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
Because x13thangelx and co. abandoned maintenance of official CM7 builds. It was too much work for not much gain if any.

CM team itself does not care about the D2G, they have no one with this device on hands, so they just release builds with 1.5 (or was it 2.5) years old patches.

thanks
[Droid 2 Global General] sd_shadow:
I can't tell you which rom is best, you'll receive lots of differing opinions on the same thing. Only way is to try yourself and find the one that fits you best as that's what these forums are about.

I want to flash stock rom 2.2.1 indian firmware back on my samsung galaxy fit as it is unable to connect to my computer and laptop...my mobile charges but no usb data connection(comp shows a message usb device not recognized) .....result of my little experiment( i suppose.. it is)....Since i am unable to connect ..how can i use odin???( used before when all was well)....

in xda forums i read about converting .tar file(of stock rom) in cwm flashable zip is possible through Android Kitchen,,,,but i dont want to take any risk by creating anything as i haven't created anything before....

PLEASE I AM ASKING FOR HELP ANY DEV/MEMBER WILLING TO guide or making a flashable zip...

I read threads on adb ,, terminal emulator ,,converting of .tar into .zip files,,, and i dont want to take any type of risk AND BY FLASHING STOCK ROM I WILL ABLE TO TAKE TO SAMSUNG SERVICE CENTER TO FIX USB DATA CONNECTION PROBLEM (they will charge me more if they see jellybean in galaxy fit for flashing stock rom)....

HHUGE THNX IN ADVANCE..:crying:

Did u use odin without booting into download mode!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] mni ANKIT:
I used odin to flash 2.3.6 firmware in download mode and it installed successfully, i wanted my mobile to connect to external storage device(i.e. pen drive) so i made a cable myself and also attache charger power source to that cable(hoping it would work.e. mount & read pendrive) ..After that my mobile wouldn't cnnect to my comp or laptop via usb data cable....it would charge but a usb data connection was not possible .. And finally after trying various methods i think it now is a hardware malfunction(becoz of me) and it should be given to a service center..

Rest all is working fine i can flash diff roms , camera ,wifi all working now using pacman rom so i thought service center would charge me more if i gave my mobile as it is.. they could easily charge more for seeing other rom installed So i wanted stock rom flashable by CWM..

So anyone's help is appreciated.. thanks...:(
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Harpratap:
what I understand from your posts is that your phone is perfectly fine but there is a problem with your pc and data cable.

Check with some other data cable,and re-install the samsung drivers for "device not recognized" error.

Use other usb port to check whether its a problem in your pc.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] mni ANKIT:
with samsung data cable i hv nokia and micromax data cable as well.. tested wiyh my friend's laptop.. didn't detect but charging was on...then removed samsung drivers,cleaned registry on windows 7,reboot then installed samsung usb driver 1.4.8..Then tries to connect , same problem(charging but no detection)... Opened settings-->Storage--->clicked menu---->USB computer connection click-->(three options MTP,PTP,Mass Storage) as soon as i click mass storage it force closes displaying message "unfortunately,settings has stopped."

What to do now??..
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Harpratap:
:eek: i never saw any such option on any rom yet!

whenever you connect with usb to a PC you get USB connected notification..click on it and enable mass storage.

never saw MTP & PTP in usb connections.

Which rom are you using?

If its 4.+ then try this
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] mni ANKIT:
In Device Manager in Universal Serial Bus Controllers i uninstalled everything from ASMedia XHCi controllers to USB Root hub... all of them, then clicked scan for hardware changes then i connected my device to computer, then clicked the app USB mass storage for ics and JB ....on computer the elements(USb Root hub, etc.) reinstalled and there it detected my device as unknown device,,,,then for 5-10 sec a message flashed

something like this ,,...". I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I Ata mass storage " then it stopped showing not installed...

Using Pacman rom ..does have mtp,ptp,mass storage options..( when i tick any one of the three options it force closes)...

I googled over net on connectivity issue and will need sum time to format c drive and then try again...:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] mni ANKIT:
I wonder once in odin multi downloader i ticked the debug option only then i clicked delete driver option which may have caused the problem.......

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] lisa2blonde:
Hiya all, could someone please explain the difference between the two roms? 4.1.2 sounds like it's a later Rom. But people already have that and I'm still waiting for 4.1.1

An explanation would be greatly valued :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] JJEgan:
4.1.1 is slowly rolling out from Samsung

4.1.2 are only custom rom builds warranty void if using .

jje
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] pwatkins:
4.1.2 is not custom. It is definitely Samsung official. Released in Germany on Dec 13th. AFAIK it is official currently only on N8000 - full wifi plus 3g version. I have it on my system.

It offers a few bug fixes and many minor improvements over 4.1.1. All in all well worth the upgrade.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] lisa2blonde:
Cool - thank you for explanation :)

So do you think the UK variant will start @ 4.1.1 or jump to 4.1.2 when its released?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] JJEgan:
Yes of course silly me forgetting the German version .

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
Yup 4.1.1 is officially released for UK a month ago, flashed via kies as i had ics firmware from uk
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ultramag69:
If you're not from the UK (even if you are from the UK) then you can use ODIN or mobile ODIN to flash just about any (official) rom out there. You can find them on sammobile.com...

There are plenty of instructions on how to use ODIN so I'm not gonna go over again....

Ah... N8000 - sorry, I misunderstood
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] bulgareli:

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jura55:
Hi,

at least here in Czech republic (but I think this is all EU related). Installing any software cannot be reason for voiding warrany for hardware parts.

Example:

If you install custom ROM and your mobile stop receiving any sms, you cannot use warranty, because you've changed sw part.. BUT

If you install custim ROM and something happended with HW (for example display gauged out of the body of the smartphone), warranty is still valid.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GETCASHMONEY:
Did you ever flash it? Im considering it now on a 8013.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] cklow01:
I have UK N8010 and I am still on 4.0.4. No update through Kies. Any idea?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ultramag69:
Just be aware that flashing the N8000 rom on an N8010/13 willneed an additional step so the modem (phone) won't drain your battery looking for a signa as you don't have the hardware to use the 3g capabilitiesl...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GETCASHMONEY:
What step is that? Airplane mode?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] JJEgan:
Custom rom .

jje
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dudu7559:
Any flash to a newer firmware is recommended to work after a complete hard-reset. If you go like this, you're obviously gonna lose any data not being linked to your Google account. So you need to save everything with a backup app or some sort.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
No you will not lose anything if you going from older to newer version just flash the complete firmware md5 file using odin reboot and everything will be fine your old apps and data will be there
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dudu7559:
Do what you like, whatsoever, but your sistem may stick or go slower if you don't zap it with an hard-reset. :)

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Duburrr:
I'm in the same boat, n8010 on 4.0.4 no updates, i rooted and installed custom Rom, that's all you can do or waitt for official update
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] pwatkins:
Just interested - why did you install a custom rom over flashing official 4.1.1 for the N8010?

No rooting, no wipe, all apps, settings and data retained. I have done it twice to 4.1.1 and then to 4.1.2 on my N8000. Dozens of others have reported complete success.

Does your custom rom give you features not available in jellybean?

there are no soft keys for it.
