[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] givemeanfinbreak:
Using my old Tilt 2 on AT&T overclocked to 768 MHz - it still gets the job done.

Recently started considering switching to Straight Talk to save $40/mo but realized I'd need to unlock the device to do so.

Requested and received an unlock code from AT&T, but have not applied it as of yet.

My question is:

1. Can I use an old Tracfone sim during the unlock procedure

2. Most importantly, when I unlock the phone, will it still function the same? Will the unlocking cause a hard reset, or change my connection settings, or wipe out my contacts and other data?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] daveb673:
When I unlocked my AT&T Tilt, it worked just the same as it did before. No change in operations. To be on the safe side, back up your phone before you do the job, and if it has an sd card I'd pull it out...

Hi guys,cant seem to find where to start its all a real blurr.

I jave a sgs2 with 4.2.2 on it and i hate my huawai thing so wanna root the s2 and flash custom firmware.

Installed kies already kies recognises the phone but odin doesnt when i put it in download mode,

Can someone pleaseplease point me to the rigjt thread or giva a step by step tutorial because im not getting it clear on my head.

I had a sgs1,galaxy nexus and a xperia z so have a little experience so i dont know why im strugling
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
For problems with Odin flashing, you need Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General. Covers every possible scenario in these situations.

For root, you need PhilZ. Search for the thread. If you find the instructions 'difficult', don't attempt anything until you understand what it is you're trying to do. You risk breaking your phone if you ignore this. I've never seen a guide/tutorial on here that was 'difficult' (people who find them difficult often don't have a handle on 'the basics'; refer to my last para).

For flashing custom roms, you need to simply follow the flashing instructions which are always simple & always on the first page of the thread devoted to every rom.

Guides/tutorials stickied near the top of General are a fantastic grounding in what makes this phone tick if you're serious about learning this stuff (99.99% of people who come here aren't though).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon2112:
I saw a thread on philZ i read there that i can just flash the kernel to obtain root?

And i will look in to all youur pointers thank you

Edit.

Most roms OP state.... Just flash in cwm ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yep. Read the PhilZ thread so you can work out which kernel you need, flash the kernel & you get a rooted phone + CWM. And yeah, pretty much every rom flash is put the files on your internal or external SD card, boot into CWRecovery, navigate to files, flash. Done.

One small thing to be aware of, newer 'KK based roms' tend to require newer versions of CWM in order to flash, so make sure you read the threads devoted to those especially thoroughly if you decide to flash them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon2112:
Yeah i kow that from my xperia z, the newer cwm is needed foot kk .

And what about the bootloader do i need to unlock it?

Im sorry for all the questions its been a while since i flashed a sammy
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pargas:
My thought: You say you have 4.2.2, are you sure it is a 9100 and not the sgs2+. Different hardware .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon2112:
Im from the netherlands and im sure its a i9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Bootloader is not locked, no need to touch it, read the guides/tutorials & you'll learn this stuff - no more answers to basic questions you can easily find answers to.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ricgregory:
I've STF'd through these forums, and am unable to find what I'm looking for. I'm also not sure if this is the appropriate forum, but here goes:

I have the T-mobile MDA Vario II. I run Outlook/Exchange at work and use ActiveSync(Push email) to send/receive email.

I have a large amount of subfolders configured in Outlook and I have certain rules that filter email and deposit them in the appropriate folders inside of Outlook. These are all synchronized onto the phone.

And here enters my problem. The unread section on the today screen only shows unread messages in the Inbox and not the subfolders. Unless I drill down to the folder list, I have no outward indication that I have unread messages in those folders.

I'm hoping that there is a Today screen program or a plugin / registry change that will list all folders with unread messages or otherwise indicate that I have unread messages elsewhere besides the inbox.

I've searched all over handandgo.com, and the software sections of this website. Can anyone point me towards something that will do what I'm looking for? Thanks in advance.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loveubuntu:
Pretty new to safestrap and the slot system. I don't really need too many slots other than stock and one extra one. Can I increase the size of slot #1 to have the remaining capacity of #2,3,4? Trying to maximize system rom size to the max for my favorite rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loveubuntu:
Anyone?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfgang71:
Size of Safestrap slots

I was wondering about this also because I keep getting warnings of running out of memory when I am in slot 1. Mind you, that this is my first rom and rooting experience on the Note 3, so the whole safestrap thing had its own learning curve. When I established my first slot, I just went with the default slot sizes and installed Hyperdrive 7 (which is an awesome ROM, I recommend using it and supporting the staff if you like it!). Anyway, after reinstalling most of my original apps and restoring my sms messages everything was running fine. After a few days of use, though, I started getting running out of memory errors and warnings recommending I delete my sms history. So, to make a short story long, I made the ROM slot too small. Here is how I corrected it ( I just did it and everything seems to be normal as of now.)

Create a full backup of your rom.

Create another rom slot with much larger memory

Once it is created, restore the backup (while in the new larger rom slot). The recent backup should show up.

Re boot into the new rom slot and verify everything is okay.

If you would like, go back and delete the old rom slot to free up phone memory.

I really hope this helps..Seems to be working fine for me. I will update if all hell breaks loose.

Hey guys, my phone is stuck on the Droid BL with the eye thing on it. I tried to post a picture, but since this is a new account it won't let me. The phone is completely stock, no CWM, no root, no ANYTHING. I know I can factory reset it to try and make it work again, but I need the pictures from it for the previous owner. Is there any way to recover anything, or will I have to wipe to stock to have it work again?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billycar11:
power + vol up and down

then go to recovery

then vol up and down and select factory reset

also if this does work you can sbf with rsd lite and delete the part of the script that says user data and get var this will keep all the data on the phone and only re flash the system

-do you know how it got stuck like this? any details may be helpful

-if i give you a modified one click script to use, do you know how to put the phone into fastboot and have the moto drivers setup on your pc to use it?

sorry if thats a dumb question, but this will go faster if i know what you know.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExPwN:
She said that it just rebooted itself while she was on an app one day, and it was fine for a day, then it died and it wouldn't boot back up. She said she got it to boot ONCE (WHY THE **** DIDN'T SHE BACK IT UP THEN) and then she rebooted and it wouldn't start.

Yes I know how to do FB and I do have the moto drivers already.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
ok, im uploading the file, it will be about an hour.

its not guaranteed to work but i think it will. i removed the wiping commands so it should reflash everything stock but not touch the data partition, again not guaranteed but i removed the commands.

ill post back when its done.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExPwN:
So what am I doing, flashing a modified firmware?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
no, its 100% stock. its just going to re-flash the key partitions and should not touch data which is a different partition. im hoping you just have a corrupt file that will be replaced by the re-flash.

if this doesnt work, i have one more idea to use rsd, but i will have to give you another modified file.

im optimistic the utility will work though and we wont have to try rsd.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExPwN:
So what do I use to flash this firmware? Odin or something else?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
no, its a 1 click utility. you just put the phone into ap fastboot, connect to your pc, then open the utility and follow the instructions. its very simple. i removed everything from the utility except the option you need.

then download this one http://www.mediafire.com/download/ucae9ljgfpda2jc/DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.34.rar

extract the second file to your desktop (its already in a folder), inside near the bottom is a "windows utility" file, delete it then copy the first file i posted in its place.

next follow the instructions in my other post to flash then double click the windowsutility file to start the utility and follow the instructions.

hmm, thats not good

your on the fastboot screen? phone should have a bunch of text including "device is locked, status code(some number)" should also say on the phone "usb-connected" etc etc

latest moto drivers?

try a different usb port, usb 2 port not 3

try a different usb cable

one of those items is usually the problem

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spott07:
You need to read the threads about rooting and unlocking your phone, not this one. Your question has been answered hundreds of times over, already.

Short answer: If you have the latest official update, you can't unlock the bootloader. You can get root, though. Without an unlocked bootloader, you can't install updated or custom ROM's. If you don't have the latest update, you can unlock everything, so be careful not to accept the OTA update if that's the case.

bWen,

I'm having a similar problem that my RAZR HD gets stuck at the eye screen. My apps had been crashing, so I tried to do a reset, and now my phone stays in the eye boot up screen until the battery dies. I downloaded your files and replaced the windows utility, but I'm not sure of two things: 1. When I highlight the AP fastboot option, how do I "select" it. Just leave it highlighted? 2. Must I have the Motorola drivers installed before doing this process? Thank you.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i have had a couple phones since this one, so i may be a little rusty.

you generally push the power button to select items highlighted.

yes, you should have the drivers installed on your pc first. there is no harm in trying to do it without, if the needed drivers are missing, the process will simply not be able to continue as it cant see the phone.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tualek:
Thanks bWen for your reply. My phone just isn't recognized when I USB it into the PC. I installed the driver, at least I've tried several times, but it won't work. I can get to the DOS looking boot screen, but then it just reboots back to the eye and gets stuck there. I don't really know what else to do. (I probably don't belong on this forum since I'm not technically smart, but I did my best.) I've purchased a new phone, which should arrive in about a week (moto x had a factory delay) so I'm phoneless for now. I hope the new one lasts me at least two years. Thanks again.

Also, when I take a picture the app crashes immediately after taking a picture. The little icon with the last picture taken that takes you to your photos is also missing. The google camera app works perfectly as far as I have tested, but I really like the zoe camera.
