I finally got both GPRS and WAP to work. Funny thing is that IE could open wap sites if I'm on the WAP network and AOL Instant Messenger could also be run with WAP network.

GPRS is not bad in speed, I could get it to open with IE and turned off the images so it doesn't use a lot of bandwidth and loads faster.

I use the settings from above, but it only works after I called Tech Support to have my account Provisioned. So they did, and when I browse around with IE using the WAP network, a message pop up on the browser saying that Wireless Internet Express is ready to use, click on Activate.

So I did and voila, it works like a charm. I also bought IP Dashboard to monitor how much bandwidth I'm taking whenever I use GPRS. While WAP uses my minutes.

Thanks again Abohsali.

Tips for you guys...

Here's a tip for you guys...

If you use the Pay As You Go Wireless Internet Express (WIX) then the settings above will work as long as you call Technical Support to provision your account. Then the GPRS settings above will work.

But, if you go with Media Works, the unlimited one with Unlimited Wireless Internet Express, then the settings above won't work. But interestingly, the WAP works for downloading email. Before, with Pay As You Go WIX, I have to switch to GPRS to download email. Now I just stay in WAP.

The good thing being in GPRS is that it uses your data connect only, not your minutes. While WAP uses your minutes, but not data. Someone here could correct me if I'm wrong?
[Networking] aceangel:
Is WAP without WIX free, or is there a $ .01 /kb charge?

How much does the unlimited plan cost?

Whoops, hadn't realise you were in Indonesia ;)
[Networking] powerppc:
Actually, the info I wrote was for the state using cingular. The unlimited was $20/m. That includes 200 mms, 1500 sms, unlimited internet express, and other things i forgot.

I just realized when i tried during the weekend, i logged on for 40 minutes and it didn't count towards my weekend minutes but used up the data. I have unlimited data anyway, so it's fine for me.

This is after calling cingular tech support 5 times to get the settings correctly. I think T-Mobile is more knowledgeable in the area.
[Networking] aceangel:
Thank you so much for the information, my XDA II was secretly connecting to WAP to activesync, got so scared it used up all my minutes!!!
[Networking] powerppc:
The way I know it isn't using my minutes was that I text message cingular and it automatically notify me my current minutes. For Minutes dial *646# then Talk or Send. For Balance, dial *225# then Send. 646 is MIN and 225 is BAL if you look at the characters in your phone.

GPRS is working on my SX56 now !!!!

Thanks to everyone in the group! I needed your help and it is greatly appreciated! If you live near San Francisco, I owe you a beer :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think we all know that the Cingular “customer service reps” are nice but they only point you to the forms to download. If you’re “lucky” and get the “real” tech support they might help you but I called at least 12 times over the last 2 weeks.

Anyway I use the following settings in modem and network settings:

APN: wap.cingular

IP Gateway: 66.209.11.61

Username: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM

Password: CINGULARG1

I’m using the pay as you go method.

I checked out the prices at http://www.cingular.com/media/media_net

and I deiced not to use that method. So I'm using the "pay as you go".

I think it's just a sales push to get you to sign up for a service you don't need.

Now here's what I've done so far on my Siemens SX56

1. Surf the Internet (seems like 56k modem speed, not bad)

2. Chat using AOL, MSN, and Yahoo clients (you can download small version of the real thing just search under Google )

3. I received and send text messages (nice)

4. I can also sync with my infra red irq and use the internet from my pc (but that's not using GPRS)

I'm going to test out vpn and wireless network at home too.

Now this is a truly coooooll device ! Scott beam my up baby!!!

Oh, and mp3 play great. (anyone got a deal on a 1gig or more sd card ?)

My ultimate goal is to keep my router and server config notes and pc tips on this device and stop carrying my laptop around so much especially when I travel. I'll proably keep some pictures on the family on it to. :D

Ok, guys one last thing. I’m looking for “tilt screen software”

In other words I want to be able to read horizontally to have more reading space. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can do that.

Thanks again and happy tweaking to all!!!

:lol: :o :lol:
[Networking] delphipgmr:
ok maybe someone here can answer this, since no-one at cingular can!

I have an sx56 and I have cingular GSM.

i want to get unlimited access for this phone at the cheapest possible, so what is the difference between:

Media Net

Wireless internet at $3.99/month (used against your minutes)

Wireless internet express $ 2.99/9.99/month + usage

and for option 1, if it used against your minutes, if you get unlimited nights/weekends, is it unlimited there too?

Thanks

--Karl
[Networking] powerppc:
I have Media Net Unlimited package for $19.99.

I tried option 1 and 2. I decided to go with Unlimited since I'm always on the internet when I'm at work, stream music while on the go.

Since the unlimited comes with 1500 sms, I used an average of 1100 sms, so this package is perfect. It also comes with 200 or so MMS, but I don't use that.

I don't think anyone can answer your question, it all depends what you wanna do with it. If you're just gonna use e-mail, to send and check, then the basic is enough. If you occasionally surf the internet with images turned off, then I would go for the $9.99. But if you go with $9.99, for another $10, you get unlimited and much more package in the option.
[Networking] delphipgmr:
well option 1. the $3.99 use your minutes thing.

did that work? and was it unmetered at night?

my use would be all after hours when my plan is unlimited anyway (my unlimited starts at 7pm)

so would the $3.99/month work? the website seems to say that you need cdma, not gsm to use that plan.

the other need for this is.....

both myself and my wife have one... so $20 X 2 =$40/month, thats alot for just internet on a phone.

I could also use a wifi card for most of the access i would need (then the pay per use is not a factor)

has anyone gotten a SD WIFI card to work in an sx56?

(Im new to this site, so i havent looked around too much yet)

Cingular Service Now Working on XDA II in 850Mhz Areas

For those of you living in Cingular areas that are on the 850Mhz towers and who could not use Cingular service on the XDA II before (as its not quad band), some good news...

Following the acquisition of ATT Wireless, a Cingular SIM will now work in an XDA II, where it previously would not. It seems that Cingular have now taken the "block" off, that was preventing you connecting to the ATT/TMo network, whenever a 850 Cingular network was present.

Now, if you live in one of these areas, and pop a Cingular SIM into your XDA II device, it allows you to connect to the former ATT Wireless network towers without a problem! Both voice and data seem to work well, using the Cingular APN and User Name/Passowrd combo.
[Networking] AdmiralAK:
This is somewhat unrelated, but it fits in.

I used to use a P800. SonyEricsson's site had a configurator which OTAed you the settings for any provider that they had in their database (which is a lot!), is there any such site for the HTC devices? - I use a Blue angel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
OK so I know there are BLACKED out playstore 4 out there.

But I'm looking for a not so inverted version. It looks like this and I can't fond this version. Just blacked out versions. I know this one is outdated and all but I like this one. I had this but I forgot to save this before wiping and now I'm hunting this version down.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE THIS CAN BE FOUND! and pleadr don't tell me "what's one with the other one, it's better." IMO I like this one in the picture.

Instead of black, it has a gray background and a blue banner for when apps is selected.

I don't like the the full blacked out version. Not much color.

FYI, those are old screenshots from my previous ROM before updating the nightly build. That's how I have the screen shots.

Superwipe script for the Sprint HTC One.

Disclaimer: I've tested the hell out of this but I am not perfect. This should not cause any data loss aside from what's involved in a normal wipe. However you use this at your own risk.

What this script does:

This will wipe /data, /devlog, /cache, /system, /boot to prepare your phone for installation of a new ROM. It will also optimally format all of the above (except /data) for speed.

After MUCH testing and nuking of my internal storage (SD Card), I have now fixed this script so that no harm will come to any data on your internal storage. It will wipe everything else. As always I recommend backing things up (including external storage) before running any kind of wipe, whether it be within TWRP/Clockwork, this script, or any other script.

Please report any issues or errors to me and I'll fix them asap.

Edit:

Thanks to [MENTION=4988866]tdhite[/MENTION] for his new update-binary, I've finally gotten around to updating this. I can't test it anymore as I no longer have the Sprint version of the device, however the only change I made was the update-binary so it should be fine. As it says above, use at your own risk.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budeone:
I have it downloaded.. I have not used a superwipe in quite a while.. Probably since 4g days.

King Format all or something like that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
I might need to update it. I don't have the phone yet and Viper may or may not have had an issue. So expect an update (at least to fix the text formatting which I'm told looks like hell). ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] budeone:
Cool, I actully used to like the one flash to clean all. :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mstrblueskys:
What exactly is this for?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
"This script will wipe /boot /data /system /devlog /cache."

"This script will also optimally format the above partitions to achieve the best possible file system speeds."

very nice script....you only want to run this script b4 flashing a ROM
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
I'm removing the download for now. Viper has identified an issue...it won't hurt anything, but it's definitely not wiping data like it should be. I know why and I'll fix it, but I need to test it first so I don't accidentally wipe peoples' SD Cards. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Nieylana:
Correct me if I'm wrong please, but I believe the HTC One doesn't have or support an SDCARD.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
Id say its quite the issue if its wiping SD cards then. Mainly because it would have to be wiping something to think its wiping an sd.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] NachoB:
#delete#
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] -viperboy-:
Correct, to an extent. It doesn't have an external sd, but the phone still references your storage as sdcard. It resides in /data/media but is symlinked to /sdcard.

The issue with superwipe is that it normally could just wipe data on a fresh flash, but if you do that, good bye all your files. But Steve has a fix for it, I verified it. He'll get it going later today I'm sure :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
It doesn't wipe the SD card in its current form. It just doesn't fully work. I'm on it, as soon as UPS drops off my phone. ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
Got the phone, it's unlocked, recovery on it...before I even flash a ROM I'm working on the superwipe script. Should have it fully functional in the next hour or so (2 minutes to fix the code, and 58 minutes to make it pretty. ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
Script is fixed and the download link is active again. Thanks for your patience folks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] TheWzrd:
While flashing it hung on checking system. I let it sit for 50% of the battery life before I got worried and press and held the power button until the device booted back up
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
I've seen that happen (on the Evo 4G LTE) on rare occasions. I've never had it happen to me. From what other users have said in the past, reboot recovery and reflash works.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] vayman:
Thanks for this Steve. I remember you from the 3D. Nice work! :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] smw6180:
No problem.

Did one for the 4G LTE too, for what it's worth. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] vayman:
Nice! I couldn't afford to get the LTE, so I wasn't aware. Glad I waited for the ONE though, this device is absolutely amazing!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 94tbird:
This just happened to me as well, hanging on checking system.. I have used the script previously with no issue. gonna try a reboot

Hi. I have tmobile samsung galaxy s2. the issue had already been around, but never this bad.Usually, when I would use my phone, it would just randomly reboot on it's own. today out of nowhere . I can't even get to the main home screen or menu. When the battery is inserted, the phone will automatically try to turn on. I'll get the Samsung screen, then the "Samsung Galaxy SII Android 4G T-Mobile screen", then the phone will glitch for a second, black screen, and it'll almost have a seizure from then on. When I say that, pretty much what happens is that the screen will go black, and it'll pulse with vibrations. It'll vibrate, stop for two seconds, vibrate some more, etc. That's all it'll do from there on. It won't try to turn on when I hold the power button, and the vibrations won't stop until I take the battery out. There is no water damage, and there's just normal wear on the phone.

i have had the same exact problem with my first salaxy s2 phone and tmobile exchanged thru warranty. it was a miracle i go tthe warranty thru as the same thing happened that i will explain below.

When I got a new tmobile phone through warranty, on the fifth day, it started to randomly turn on and of at least evry other day .and beep for about a minute till i can turn it on. when I went to tmobile store to point this out, while it was within warranty, they said i wouldnt worry about it it is the nature of your phone. I would do a master reset and it will get rid of problem. did a master reset within a week it started to randomly re boot again as well as beep for a minute till it powers on.

I went to another tmobile store and told them this , they said i would not worry about it, its the nature of your phone. i went to six differennt tmobile stores thats in my city and same thing.

when i called custo,mer care they just told me to go to tmobile store.i did several master resets, problem not gone.

Now my 14 days are up, as well as one year warranty when i first got phone(dont know if u get a new one year after a warranty exchange)My phone has no use now as it just powers on to tmobile screen, basically what i said above.

do i have to pay to get a new phone. Is there someone whom i can file a complaint to.All what the workers in tmobile seem to be doing is texting on their phones, looking happy that they can abuse power. they all look like stereotypical teens who are either clueless, or rude jerks who abuse their powers.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] IVIorph:
can't do anything about loose jack...

but hopefully your problem is only a software issue...and not a hardware one

if it is only software issue you can fix it

go to android development thread...

look up sticky notes

learn how to root your phone...

learn how to install recovery...

and flash a mod that is stable... like the one I run at the bottom of my post

hope this helped m8 :)

[HTC Droid DNA] typeriz:
I was wondering, the kernel on the HTC first would've helped out on development of aosp roms for the DNA, knowing it's stock android running under the facebook home skin
[HTC Droid DNA] jonesin:
most likely the answer is no. Kernels are device specific. moreso they are chipset specific. and off the top of my head the myst has a dual core 1.5 ghz soc not sure if qualcomm or not dont rlly care to look into it but the answer is likely no...

edit: i stand correct it is the snapdragon msm8960 so there is a slight potential for useable bits of the kernel but this would be dependant on the radio pairing that was selected.....
[HTC Droid DNA] typeriz:
Well I belive we got radio up and running in CM. Most likely should merge the audio and camera?? Plus GPS that needs work.

I'm no developer, just using assumptions.
[HTC Droid DNA] Zarboz:
Possibly but there are HTC frameworks and stuff

It boots and WiFi scans and sees networks just can't make connection

The Facebook app is notoriously bad. What exactly is the appeal of a Facebook phone or a Facebook rom? Just curious.

Facebook phone: teenagers and Facebook addicts.

I'm gonna flash this just to see what it's about, it's funny to think that anyone in their right mind would actually buy a Facebook phone though.
[HTC Droid DNA] QD2DC:
I think the real appeal is that this rom is very aosp like. Since facebook home can be turned off, you essentially got an aosp HTC device, which I actually miss from my Nexus One days. I heart sense so this isn't for me, but people love aosp crap.
[HTC Droid DNA] inphamous36:
Your bored Z? What about beast mode for Evita. :(
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I was not aware you could turn it off. Interesting. Perhaps we could be seeing an aosp compatible beastmode?
[HTC Droid DNA] Zarboz:
Lots lol

I don't like Aosp too much either but I was hoping it could serve as an Aosp style Rom for people who do like Aosp
