[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CellularNewb:
Hey XDA Dev community! So I happen to have an old, but completely mint!, Droid Incredible 2 from when I first purchased it from Verizon back in 2011. I no longer use Verizon and switched to T-Mobile and now using a Z3. Anyways, birthdays are coming up soon and i'd like to hand my Incredible 2 down to my younger brother as a gift. BUT, of course as you all figured, there is a slight problem: the ADR6350 is SIM locked, running Android ver. 2.3.4 with HTC Sense ver. 2.1 basically bare bones stock stuck in the year 2011. So I'm trying to figure out if this handset can be upgraded to today's standards (at least ICS 4.00) rooted and unlocked. I'm definitely not wanting to use Verizon so I'm leaning towards T-Mobile prepaid. I'm trying to trick this little handset out for the little guy as I think the ADR6350 is still a half decent starter cell. So is it possible to get this cell up and running without Verizon's chains? I really hope so! because i'd hate to leave this perfect, more than capable, cell in a box for 5 more years to only be a shiny paperweight.. Please help! Walk me through step by step as I am a newb with cell rooting ect. (hence the S/N) But please, only proven stable mods or Roms though!

(mods feel free to move thread to proper location)

PM if you need hardware/software/IMEI #'s

THANKS!!!

Hi all. As it is a recognised bug in Spb Shell that the Spb Menu does not display correctly in Landscape only, from a cold boot until you have navigated through some of its menu's (then it works perfectly until the next soft-reset), I was wondering if anyone had come across a simpler solution to this current problem.

Has anyone else experienced a slowing down of the O/S with it installed or memory leakage?

I 've looked around at previous threads and other sites, but I've either missed it or it doesn't exist.

I'm running version 1.0.0, Build 2632

Is there a newer version available? If so, can someone please provide a link as I cannot find anything at Spb's site.

Cheers
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mackaby007:
C'mon people. I know I'm not the only one to experience this as I have read a long thread about this on the developers website. It's just sometimes us end-users find ways around these types of issues and I was hoping this was one such time......No takers? OK, I'll simply report back the solution for all the shy ones once I have found it myself. :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
you are not the only one, i have this problem too, that's why i disable the SPB menu, i am now only using the SPB Mobile Shell Today plugin. if i am not wrong, once you get your menu working or eventually load up, all your sound is gone.

I have heard other people having this problem too, so until next version is out, i will disable the menu for now.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] cornelius:
Wow. I didn't realize before. I have that prob to..
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mackaby007:
Ha ha me too. Didn't realise the sound issue was down to the menu though. Thanks for that Wu.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
glad to help, haha, you don't know what you have miss. I was surprise at first why my phone doesn't ring.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
My mVoice software suffers from a similar bug. I think I had another program that did this also but I don't remember which it was. Long since deleted it.

My camera doesnt work when mobile is running,it just comes up blank.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] faisal.husain:
I did have the same issue, however after installing true VGA, i no longer suffer from this issue; works perfectly.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] zwuncki:
what???????????????????????????

how did you get mobile shell to work with truevga?

several people including me don't get mobile shell to work (at least not the today plugin).

after installing i can't go to the today screen anymore. it gets stuck there. i need to go back to vga mode and uninstall it or hardreset.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] faisal.husain:
Yes, your quite right, you need to take the main spb shell today plugin out. However, the other plugins like world time and contacts etc can still remain. It is quite stable....
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] QAN:
The problem is caused by the ATI videocard. It is not correctly supported bij SPB. Weeks ago I was in contact with SPB and I showed them this problem. The first 7 or 8 times that you use the menu nothing happens. At that point all te graphic memory get flushed. After the is no driver buffer memory left, it will show the icons. But at that point the camera and the sounds will not work anymore until you reset your device.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mackaby007:
Bloody ATI/AMD...they suck!!!

This ATI Imageon chip/driver is becoming the bain of my life!! Video performance is lacking due to it, and now it affects other applications and sound too.

I have been complaining about ATI since September 2006, specifically the 2282 Imageon technology found in the Hermes, Trinity and now the Athena. That's a lot of unsupported devices floating around out there. According to Corecodec, ATI haven't exactly been playing ball with them either...and they are developers!

Maybe if enough of us complain (large petition) to HTC, they can get ATI/AMD to get a fix together that will work on all Imageon based devices..WM5/6 . After all, HTC must be shelling out a fair few dollars to them...so if they will listen to anyone, it most likely will be HTC. Enough already...wish I had stuck to my guns and stayed away from any more devices that are Imageon 'disabled'. lol.

P.S. Oh by the way...if Spb haven't or cannot fix this by their next release, Spb Shell is coming off my Ameo and I will be demanding a FULL refund on the basis that it does not work as advertised on my WM5 device.

P.P.S Another good reason is that if Spb don't get it fixed by the next release, it's probably that they can't as they will need tech assistance from ATI/AMD and based on their track record with Corecodecs coreplayer, I'd say the possibility of this happening is slim to none. Just my experience over the last 8 months. :(
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] zwuncki:
:(

thought you maybe had a solution for this.

i love the mobile shell today plugin, don't need the menu or start screen. so the most important doesn't work.

i've already written this in their forum, they don't seem to care, said it's the realvga resolution which is causing the problem (i should uninstall realvga... right, cause mobile shell is so much more important, man).

well maybe, but i don't think it's a lot to ask for a realvga today plugin which would work fine (as every other plugin does too), esp. as one of the devolpers has a vga device.

quite poor support (i love the sbsh support who help you in every way they can and very fast). i'm not a fan of spb developing/developers, that's why i don't use their products anymore and won't buy new ones.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] apphoen:
That's exactly what I've done. Disabled the menus and just use the Now screen. It's annoying 'cos I used it extensively on my Wizard.

One of the other problems is that when using Mobile Shell with SPB Diary, quite a lot of the screen is used up so only a days worth of appointments is usually shown.

Still sound issue

Hi there guys. I also had the issue with the sound. Has since uninstalled Spb shell and done a hard reset but sound issue remains. Any help please?

I have the T-mobile ROM with WM5 on. Do any of you have WM6 and where to get it?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
this must be the 7th or 8th times i have answer this question......NO, THERE IS NO WM6 YET, it will be out in about 2 months.

If you have done the hard-reset and haven't install any program, and your sound doesn't work, then this is something serious and might not due to SPB shell.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] di2307:
so, spb shell is NOT working on x7500, right?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
you can still use the today plug in, but the spb menu won't work

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Safarend:
I was playing around with my Z2 I have flashed Lollipop using Flashtool (All Official).

I found two interesting apk's that can be installed over the existing ones as an update (Which have a permission to write to system files I guess).

I tried to decompile them but no luck. What I had in my plan is to inject some code in the apk that will let it give permission to other application that we specify in the Manifest.xml (It is a long shot)

I will attach the apk's

/system/app/PremiumSmsUpdate

/system/priv-app/UpdateCenter

Both can be installed over and over with no failed installation.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to inject one of the two apks with something to root?

Thanks

[Samsung Gear S] dhkkim:
Wondering if we can get hotspot application for gear s.

gear s uses only few megabytes of data per month so i want to share remaining datas.

Any idea?

Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S] dhkkim:
my gear s gets unlimited 3g(hspa+) so ..

My plan is gear specific plan which is $10 a month for unlimited data. Thats why im trying to tethering my gear over wifi. When i switch to other device it automatically changes to basic plan. I guess my plan is filtered with imei on gear s.
[Samsung Gear S] Shum Channel:
Good idea. You can turn on the charger and distribute wi-fi. For example, in the office or in the car.
[Samsung Gear S] mcsnazzy:
I also have this in mind.. hopefully there are kind developers who also interested to make this happen :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Gear S] R187J:
Most likely only ad-hoc infrastructure would be avaliable due to the processor speed/ram/WiFi chipset/Modem chipset
[Samsung Gear S] BPM:
i would also love to use the watch as hotspot. i dont own the watch, but I really think about buying one, and tethering is very important for me

The file doesn't download all the way - the last few 0.1gb never download, even with the extension - tried 6 times. What to do? :/
[HTC Desire 510] blaqueknight:
I was just able to download the file. I am using the Chrome browser on a Windows 8.1 Computer. I used the "Download through your browser" link. It got all the way to 99% and seemed like it was frozen for a while. I gave it about a minute and it eventually showed up in the Downloads section of the browser to finish up. Try to give it some time and/or use Firefox or another browser. Good Luck
[HTC Desire 510] Deleted member 6872898:
Nope, Firefox and Chrome both have the same problem for me. It finishes to the point of coming up in my download history - I don't have problems with any other downloads from Mega. It goes to 100%, doesn't hang at any point.
[HTC Desire 510] blaqueknight:
I don't know what to tell you. Hope someone else has advice.
[HTC Desire 510] MrMike2182:
Are you using your cellphone data to download it or do you have a home wired internet? If you're using your cellphone data I'd try using either your home network or find Somewhere that has free internet access and try there because like blaqueknight I just downloaded the whole file in a few minutes with no problems.
[HTC Desire 510] Deleted member 6872898:
Using wifi and ethernet connections to my home wired connection, as well as the wifi at work - no dice! Happens the same way on multiple machines and connections, so I am at a bit of a loss. Is anybody able to reupload or maybe use Google Drive?
[HTC Desire 510] MrMike2182:
I'll see what I can do, give me a few.

I'm uploading it to Google Drive for you but unfortunately they aren't taking it fast enough so I'm guessing the upload is gonna be about an hour. I downloaded the whole file in 7 minutes 39 seconds so it taking an hour is stupid really.

I can't get it to go here at my girls house cause Dropbox keeps dropping the connection and then it starts over and the file being 1.14GB is gonna end up being a lot more lol. I'll do it from my house.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alienx15:
Hello everyone i wanted to see if anyone could find a fix for this problem. Well to start this off when i got the nexus 6 its the T-MOBILE (unlocked of course) was working FANTASTIC when i inserted my sim into it. LTE, MMS, CALL, AND TEXT worked better than any android phone i ever used. But i had the VERY DUMB IDEA to call *228 on a LTE phone for laughs (worse mistake ever). Now i can only get 3g instead of lte which is WAYYYYYYY lower in my area. And now my nexus 6 has a 3G PRL instead of Verizon's LTE PRL it needs and i CAN NOT revert back. Help would be MUCH APPRECIATED!

I have ordered a new verizon sim to activate with a random lte devices of course to stick in it for be a fresh card to get the correct info for LTE .

I just need another solution to hold me until then

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeonDX82:
I did this too. Ill have to order a new sim I guess. if you get to the testing menu I was able to force LTE only.

Im glad im not the only one.

so definatly don't dial *228
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnubian:
Shouldn't have to order a new sim. Just go to the store and they will give you one. Shouldn't have to pay for it unless its an "authorized dealer" and not an actual Verizon store iirc.

You can try *22899 it was used on the gnex back in the day. I have never had issues with using *228 anyways on any phone.

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 PM ----------

Actually save *22899 as a contact and try that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwartz.matthew.e:
Don't do this on an LTE phone!!!! It's what caused this issue to begin with!!!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryantjopplin:
Have you tried it? I have personally in my 2 gnexes and worked just fine, didn't "burn" my sim card either. Instead of not understanding a concept of looking it up, maybe you should just Google *22899 only and see for yourself.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwartz.matthew.e:
I completely understand it. I worked for big red corporate for many years in sales. So, *22899 is literally *228 then option 1 so activation for CDMA phones. *22899 just avoids having to go thru the option. Nothing else.

Update:

Maybe you should google things a bit BTW. LTE phones auto activate. No *228. *228 is ONLY FOR CDMA and that is why this guy broke his phone. Before you recommend something to someone and then call me stupid, maybe you should do your own research. And the "I did it and I'm OK" line doesn't mean jack sh*t. Don't hurt other people because of your own ignorance.

First off i didn't call you stupid, i said you didn't understand me. Second i read numerous post and seen many 4g phone do it. If a phone dials it itself then why is bad?

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/phone-auto-dialed-22899-t1472798
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schwartz.matthew.e:
OK. Well that is nice to know. Its hard to know what someone is saying. Often times people on XDA are jerks so it puts me on edge.

Anyway. It's programming the phone as if it is 3g only. It won't even work or go thru. But, if somehow it does like it did when LTE first came to big red, it will burn your sim and possibly worse. This is pretty common knowledge so I'm surprised you've seen anything but it. But again, there is never a time on an LTE phone to call this number. It should never even go thru but if it does, nothing good will happen. This is what happened to the poor guy on this thread. Perfect example.

Hope this info helps.

It covers the bottom portion of my keyboard when I'm typing and it's very annoying, as soon as it goes away it's usually right back again. Is there a way to disable these notifications?
