[AT&T HTC One (M8)] diehardbattery:
So, I have an AT&T M8 that I unlocked the bootloader, and S-Off using sunshine, and SuperCID. I wanted to convert to a Google Play Edition, which I did successfully. I then wanted to SIM unlock my phone. So I bought an unlock code which I have in my possession.

I decided I wanted Sense back, so I reversed as much as I could, and flashed the ViperOne ROM. I did not have an alternate SIM card (T-Mobile) until today. I put it in, and boom, I'm on the network? No unlock code request or anything... I tried putting my CID back to the AT&T one but it still works just fine with the T-Mobile SIM...

I may end up selling this phone at some point, but want to be absolutely sure it is permanently SIM unlocked...To my knowledge, I haven't done anything to the phone that would indicate this... How can I be sure?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] dxwilliams40:
I may be wrong but I believe that achieving s-off will sim unlock your phone.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] diehardbattery:
At least in the case of Sunshine, it does not SIM unlock. I checked with jcase in their IRC support channel...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
AFAIK, S-off methods do not intentionally SIM unlock. Its always been a separate process. For instance, for firewater, s-off was also a separate process: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708572

If OP wants to be "sure" its SIM unlocked, you can try the process above. Although, I don't know of a way to confirm, other than inserting another carrier's SIM (which you have already done).

The GPE edition is SIM unlocked. Is it possible that something in the conversion also unlocks the SIM?
[General Questions and Answers] ch3ng!:
Hi!

I've a problem, I downloaded the app called pushbullet, It tells me that I need to enable it on Accessibility settings (Is needed for the feature called "Mirroring notification service"). After I enable it everything works perfect.

The problem is when I download a second app called Heads-Up notifications, when I enable that in the accessibility settings, neither pushbullet or Heads-up works. If I enable only Heads-up (disabling pushbullet) it works OK.

I downloaded many other apps similar to Heads-up and the same thing is happening.

I sent an E-mail to the developer and he responded me with this:

" Hi! This is a problem with some phones (especially Samsung's) being "smart", and only allow one accessibility service per feedback type. Since Heads-up definitely is within the "visual feedback" type, I decided to stick to that type. Another reason to use the "visual" type is that it reduces the so-called "talkback bug". --Simen "

Question: Is there anyway to "Tweak" android and allow more than "one accessibility service per feedback type" ???

Sorry for my horrible english, I'm Italian :o

Hello :)

just curious to see if you got a solution for this :)

thank you
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] markw996:
Hi,

Is anyone successfully using ORB (www.orb.com) and streaming either video content or live TV to their TyTN?

I can stream perfectly but even in full screen landscape mode the picture is still only about the size of a postage stamp in the center of the screen with the rest of the screen black :(

I have heard of some people using TCPMP from coreplayer, however this is even worse as the screen (and sometimes the entire phone) just freezes within about 2 seconds of the stream starting. Another problem with TCPMP seems to be that it sometimes asks me if I want to overwrite the live.wmv file which suggests that it is downloading it instead of streaming it :confused:

Anyway, I'd much rather have it working in WM10 if only the screen would resize it properly.

Another problem is that I can't stream from my WiFi connection, even at home if I want to stream video I have to use GPRS because I get an error on WiFi (using WM10).

Thanks,

Mark
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
I use Orb very regularly. I use it with WMP10 on my Tytn and I do not experience the problem that you mention.

The only advice I can offer is that perhaps the the downsizing happens automatically as a result of your network speed. You'll notice that when you log into Orb, the very first thing is does is perform a speed test of the network. It is highly likely the result of that test dictates the resolution and bitrate of video that it streams to your device. I get it full screen with no problem. I'm on Cingular's UMTS in the US. Check that speed test and see what speeds it is getting.

As far as the Wi-Fi goes, I wish I could help you. I can also stream with no problems over Wi-fi. At least you know it's not a limitation of Orb or your device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] markw996:
After reading your comments I decided to trick Orb into thinking that I was on a fast connection.

I loaded the Orb webpage and did the speedtest using wifi, then turned wifi off and started streaming some live TV...

You're right, it played in full screen :D

Now if only I could set up my wifi to stream rather than just browse then I'd be sorted! :mad:

Thanks,

Mark
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stpete111:
Check all your Wi-Fi settings because it doesn't seem to make sense that you can stream over radio but not Wi-Fi. Make sure that the Wi-Fi connection you link up to is set to connect to whatever your main internet connection is on your phone. Also check the router (if you're trying this at home with a wireless router) and make sure your router isn't blocking anything, although when I installed Orb, it configured itself to go through my router without needing any manual input from me, which was nice :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] markw996:
Well my Dlink DI-524 isn't quite so helpfull :p

I've traced the problem to my router, and I can now stream by manually assigning an IP address to the TyTN (as opposed to DCHP) and then putting that IP into the routers DMZ (demilitarised zone).

I'm not sure how safe it is doing that :rolleyes: but at least it works now :D

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nogloww:
I rooted my HTC One ATT M7 and now any Tasker profiles that use Secure Settings no longer work. Secure Settings is working properly, as far as I can tell, with the System+ Module enabled and other Tasker profiles that don't use SS work just fine. I am trying a profile that automatically locks the phone when it is not connected to my home WiFi. Wifi is working fine too. This profile worked fine before I rooted. I think this may have something to do with S-Off and not being able to write to system partition? I posted another thread on that. I've looked up a few things and a lot of people seem to have trouble with HTC and Tasker after rooting but I haven't found any fixes yet. Any ideas?

Dunno if this has been fixed for many, but I found a nice fix for this issue. So on ST, with the latest version of Android, ATT decided to lock down the apn type, and completely screw over straight talk customers. I searched and searched, until I gave up and searched for ways to manually force edit it. I am a moderator over at /r/StraightTalk on Reddit, and this has fixed it for them, and myself. So to get it some exposure, Ill post it here too, since many come to XDA for their issues.

If this has been fixed, I apologize, I dont want any sort of credit, I just want my fellow Straight Talk users to not feel as frustrated as I was. Picture messaging, and group messaging is a big thing to not have on a new phone, and the customer service was not helpful.

Wondering if anyone has had this problem. I haven't pinned a time down yet. I use a motorola car kit. It will disconnect and end the call for no reason. Is there a timer to auto disconnect in the bluetooth stack? Any help is appreciated.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] robpet2:
approx 4minutes or less

I was having a problem w/mda and bluetooth and sometimes without bluetooth, in that the entire network would just drop when the call gets close to 4 minutes.... I called tmo about it and they simply gave up and said maybe its the phone...so they sent me a replacement mda, used it today during one call and couldn't believe that the call lasted longer than an hour...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] GreggSymington:
Mine is only with bluetooth. I guess a little more info is needed. If I hit the voice dial button on my car kit I get the voice command tone. I have also used bluetooth to play music over the car kit with the voice command controls(just for fun, horrible quality). It will disconnect while it's playing music no call involved. I have a feeling it's the bluetooth connection timing out but I'm not sure. It's frustrating.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] robpet2:
so its not happening during phone calls???

see there might be a bluetooth timeout that tmo doesn't know about...I have to use bluetooth and it seems like every 4min or less it blanks out everything and sometimes I even have to re pair the two devices.... I would try making calls and using the bluetooth w/o car kit...mine did some of the samethings like streaming music thru bt headseat and it would blankout with that also even when not on a call..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] GreggSymington:
Car Kit Not Staying Paired???

I guess I wasn't clear. It happens in both situations. I think i have to re-pair after as well. As far as I know it doesn't stay paired. When a call comes in I usually have to wait about 2 rings before it rings through the car kit. Also when I make a call by hitting the voice dial button on the car kit the blue light blinks for about 2 seconds then I get the voice command sound. I assume that the blinking is it re-pairing. I guess I need info on how to keep it paired.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] GreggSymington:

Try turning on the bluetooth first while your phone is off. Once the bluetooth is on, then turn on your cell phone.

Hello i am new to this site but i have been in the android scene for a long time. before i had an android i had apple but i didn't like it so i switch but before i did i was into jailbreaking and finding thing that i haven't seen posted.

i have a samsung stratosphere on a 2.3.6 and it can be rooted but there was only a few ways to do it and i couldn't get them to work and i didn't like that you were unable to use wifi after .

i found a way to do it with out a computer but it could come with risks that i don't know about yet. this is an apk that will root your phone.

apk here. it is an automatic download // i can't give you the download because i don't have 10 post but look at my account and if i can ill post it there

Framaroot-1.5.2.apk google it if you don't see it on my profile

Steps to do it

1st: install the app
2nd: open it
3rd: choose install superSU
last click: Aragorn then reboot your phone

warring don't do the other method.

this will allow you to be rooted and use wifi.

bugs

if you use the super user method your phone with go into safe mode.
sometime it will free.
sometime your phone won't load.

somewhat of a fix
install ram booster from the store and click it. free / root only

You can search the thread to see if there is any mention of camera issues (I did a quick look, and didn't see anything jump out at me). Or just flash another ROM as previously suggested, to see if that fixes the camera issue.

---------- Post added at 08:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 AM ----------

I would complain to the seller, even if you are okay with it being modded, rooted, etc. I would also mention the camera issue, in the event you can't fix it in software and its a hardware issue (in which you should seek to get a refund, exchange, etc.).

The seller not informing you the phone is modded,rooted, etc. is at a minimum a breach of common sense; at most its deceptive.

Also, this thread should have been posted in Q&A, so I've notified the mods to move it.

But the thing is, the headphone jack on the s2 is on the top right corner, whereas it is on the bottom left corner for us.

Hi. IS there any way to get AOSP apps (phone, contacts, messages etc.) for stock Xperia J with JB?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] HB_TyTN:
In fact, it's a 400 bucks piece of utterly unreliable, useless crap.

Since I got my device back from "repair", it's been a mixed experience. Most things work, some make me cringe in despair.

Today is a bad-TyTN day and I'm really, really <expletive/>.

After the repair, I thought my "No GSM" problems were gone. But today, the first time I really couldn't do without it, it crashed a couple of minutes after I unplugged it from the USB-ActiveSync 4.5 link and told me again "No GSM".

And of course, the result being:

- All POP3 accounts lost, and now I lost all emails and have to use different account names to set them up again

- Network connections credentials lost, even built-in. No I can, again, connected by other means, go figure out how to set these up or,

- finally, hard-reset the device, which is a pain in the neck because I have no out-of-the-box backup.

I'm not even running any third-party software on the device for fear of introducing non-linearities. I did not even install the brand-new TomTom 6, also since nobody seems to be able to sell a sufficiently large MicroSD card at this time.

Who's to blame for my bad experience?

Did I do something wrong? Setting the lock-timeout to 2 hours instead of 12, so it locked during the ActiveSync session?

Did HTC screw up so it would reset some "protected storage" when the GSM card is not detected for some magical reason?

Does Windows Mobile 5.0 AKU2 just have too much bugs to be reliable?

Does my provider E-Plus Germany suck for confusing the device with poor, unreliable UMTS coverage and internet connection problems?

It's a mixture of all these things, I guess. There are too many moving parts, most of which aren't sufficiently documented by Microsoft, or kept up-to-date software-wise by HTC and the service providers.

Examples:

- Messaging that unrecoverably screws up my POP3 accounts and there is no documentation in the SDK about the setup to fix it myself.

- The worthless MediaPlayer, that abandons it's meta-data when the storage card is released.

- The HTC phone software that at times wouldn't let me hang up on occasions, or doesn't start, or keeps using a bad UMTS connection even if GPRS is available and good.

I thought the TyTN would make a great every-day device for a phone and a software development platform for new-class applications.

So far, it's been one of the greatest time-wasters I've ever acquired.

Just like any other toy.

Useless crap.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Not had anything quite as bad as that. Never had to hard reset due to irreversible problem. But, yes quite a few soft resets and in a way although I want to disagree with you I think the device is cutting edge and could easily have been held back a year to iron out some problems. However as you say some of these problems are down to WM and telecoms providers. For business I would not get one of these but probably something with fewer features but high reliability.

For trying out the new or new combinations of features I would still buy a TyTn in preference to anything similar and yes a large part of this is about experimentation and an acceptance that if this were not cutting edge in some ways then reliability would not be acceptable. As it is though my business use is low on TyTn having "Fun" and experimenting is high. My rant is about releasing the device with obvious hardware irritations, the software.. well that can always be upgraded.
