[Touch Pro CDMA] CoolTommy:
I'm sorry for the ignorance, I searched and searched and I just can't figure out what I do with the Kitchen files...

This is the first time I have installed a ROM... I'm shocked on how easy it is so far...
[Touch Pro CDMA] stanglifemike:
The kitchen just gives you the ability to cook in (install) what ever you want in to the ROM. The different kitchens are just different builds, just so you can try them and see which one you prefer or works best for you.
[Touch Pro CDMA] CoolTommy:
I understand that... I just can't figure out how to cook the ROM... I tried using .bat file but it kept giving me an error when I tried compiling all the programs... It said something to the effect of there was already such and such in the temp/dump folder, even after deleting these folders...

EDIT - I guess I figured it out, looks like I had multiple files checked in a certain category...

Thanks all!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xm81bpm:
My phone is constantly waking up when not in use. There is no obvious activity that i see, such as email,SMS etc. I was told possibly when the signal or towers change it wakes up?

All i know is im at work and the darn phone keeps lighting up. Im driving at night and it's lighting up. it's in my pocket and im dialing my last call! This is also killing my batteries!

Is anyone having this problem?? Can this be fixed?? registry tweak?? Im so angry with this phone because of this. otherwise i really like this phone.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hypermj:
I had the problem of dialing when in my pocket... and a slightly different error with the lights.. the ones around the dial just won't switch off even when all the messages and alerts are cleared.

I've found that if you lock the screen so that you can only use the power button, it solves this as it's easy to unlock the phone from ur pocket (I've had it in a jacket pocket and it's done it!)

Should solve it!...

As for the lighting up... have you tried adjusting the power options for optimum battery as this solved the same issue on my Touch Cruise.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ZuinigeRijder:
you can use TouchLockPro for preventing bogus calls. Are you sure it does not awake on buton presses, a windows mobile setting.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] whatthefunk:
wake up woes

Same issue here. It seems the CDMA Sprint Diamond wakes up on new SMS or when switching cell towers and there is no way to disable that regardless of what ROM you're using. It's ridiculous... and it is my only major problem with the phone. Hopefully someone will find a better solution. Until then Locking the phone will have to suffice.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xm81bpm:
ive been using the lock feature. the only thing is it often gets "stuck" in lock mode. i will turn on the phone the backlight would be dim - like in lock mode. i can use the phone but it wont come out of the "dim" mode until i take out the battery and put it back in.

separately,

I wonder if i was using the diamond phone from another provider if i would have the same "waking" problems?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hgrimberg:
I have the same problem. The phone wakes up all the time by itself. It is a problem with the defective power buttons that come on the Diamonds. No fix for that so far that I know of. It is a hardware problem, I think.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] anythingbutmine:
Mine wakes up when switching between home and roaming towers. Not sure about switching home to home towers or roaming to roaming. I also had my power button being bumped on from time to time; I'd take out my phone to find it had tried to dial someone, adjust the clock, etc. Very annoying.

Pocket Shield is amazing; it's the only lock app I can find that does what my Treo's always did: unlock on center button.

Works wonderfully well!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] sscywong:
Before I upgrade my 1.93 CSL ROM to the 2.0x CSL ROM, it also always woke up itself...

After I upgarded my ROM (i.e. a hard reset) problem gone... So I think that's not a hardware problem...

Yet at this moment I'm still unclear which program caused that problem...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] whatthefunk:

[HTC Wings] Flame060:
It's an HTC 5800. From what I understand it's the S730 but they renamed it or something for Solo Mobile in Canada.

I saw someones device information and mine didn't match up. Most notably the CPU is a QUALCOMM(R) 7500, rather then a 7200 as I saw posted.

Could anyone give me a little more information on this? I'm new to smartphones and would love to get into them a bit more. Plus, if I were to ever flash the firmware or whatever, I would really need to know what model phone I have.
[HTC Wings] Flame060:
http://www.cellphones.ca/cell-phones/compare/636,674/

They seems to have the exact same hardware. Slightly different software loaded onto Windows Mobile.

Could I use firmware from this board and apply it to my phone? This is my major concern.

Hi guys I've got the unlock code for my device but problem is I do not have a SIM from a provider other than my own. Is there any way to put in the unlock code without a foreign SIM???

I have unlocked my Magic witch was SIM locked to Vodaphone Spain and all i had to do was to put in my Swedish SIM-card and power on the phone to get to a screen there i put in the unlock code. If you have your SIM card pin-protected you maight want to trie to disable the PIN first.

Hope it works out for you!

Sim locked T-mobile Mytouch 3G

My T-mobile Mytouch 3G is locked to T-mobile and I can't get the unlocking code nor from the unlocking websites nor from T-mobile. How can i get it unlocked?

Will flasing the ROM unlock it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hypmatize:
Why can't you get an unlock code from T-Mobile? They gave me an unlock code for mine for free... http://expressunlockcode.com/htc.aspx they say that can unlock it for you.

I don't think flashing a rom unlocks it.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dcplaya:
I have the same problem. Every unlock place online says the IMEI returns a "Code Not Found"

I was able to find a guy on ebay that says he can get it even if the IMEI returns "Code Not Found" but it cost me $30

Anyone know what some IMEIs return a Code Not Found error?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mahlergreen:
Do you just call up tmo support for the unlock code? Are the specific criteria or questions that you need to meet or answer for it?

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ferraripassion:
@dcplaya glad that you got your code.

The only reason you are getting the code for the Mytouch 3G is because the guy from whom you got that code has got it from T-Mobile USA database.

Yea, I figured the guy has to work for T-Mobile USA to be able to get the unlock codes so quickly after the release of the phone. I just want everyone else to know that an unlock is achievable

I have a mytouch 3g i bought in the states, and I've come up to canada. I got it SIM unlocked, but I can't get passed the stage that requires you to sign in with google, you need a data plan to sign in, but is it a special data plan only made for touchscreens or HTC devices? Any advice on what to do? I've tried a friend's sim which has data, but it said it couldn't find a connection. There is a service provider up here that carries the mytouch under its HTC branding, should I try to get a sim that was made for that from that company maybe?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] thinkdifferent:
I'm guessing you didn't set up the APN?

Try finding the correct APN settings and press [Menu] at the sign in stage to get to the APN list. Add the APN for your carrier and you should be okay.

It will use data. However, a standard data plan should work as the IMEI of the mytouch 3g is not in your carrier database so it cannot distinguish it from a dumbphone. You should be able to get the low end data plans traditionally not offered to smartphone users.

I have a question..

have the cyanogenmod rom..

but i assume this does not mean that i can just use any simcard right?

My magic is from vodafone so i am assuming its locked for anything other then vodafone sims.

is there a way to unlock it?

appreciate the help..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ferraripassion:
Rooting will not let you use any sim cards.

You need to unlock the phone to use any sim card and this is completely different from rooting.

You can ask your provider for the unlock code or purchase it online from numerous websites.

SIM-Unlocking HTC Magic

Anybody got any idea on how to sim-unlock an HTC Magic for free? I know there are lots of sites that will provide unlock codes for a price...I just wonder if where we could get a software for this..of course for free...:p

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ferraripassion:
Unfortunately there is not free unlocking available for the Magic yet.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] visitador02:
I doubt so too. The Magic has been around by now for a year and I have not read anywhere about any kind of unlock software. I believe the unlock codes are just a bunch of numbers that HTC provides to the phone carriers.

So either spend money on ebay, website, etc. An idea is to add yourself to the list under the thread provided by user Ferraripassion on this forum. Or just keep your phone locked to your phone carrier.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] piro1:
I have a question:

I would buy the HTC magic in Belgium (proximus) where I am for work, but in a few months I have to go back to my country (Italy) and I still would like to use my phone with the sim card of my italian operator (Vodafone). I understood that I cannot. Why? is the phon blocked to the proximus sim? This is very strange to me because it means that I can use the phone only in one country.

Anyone can avoid me from buing something I can use only in Belgium.

Check this out - good idea

http://theunlockr.com/2009/09/09/how-to-unlock-your-phone-for-free/
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] visitador02:
Yes, you can buy one direct from HTC or a HTC retailer and pay the retail price. The locking process has more to do with whether the phone carrier is subsidizing the price of your phone.

As to what Raymar23 said, that is true in the U.S. if you have been a customer of a phone carrier for awhile (usually, at least 3 months) and tell the carrier that you plan to travel overseas and want to use a local sim in the foreign country.

(Urgent help) Unlock software for HTC Mytouch 3G

Hi guys I'm new to the site, I've seen numerous threads on unlocking the Mytouch 3G but none really relates to my situation. A family member recently brought me the cell in the US for my Birthday and shipped it to the Caribbean (where I am). We all know these things come with a sim pin (sim lock code) and you need the IMEI number from the cell to get the code, but being that I'm outside of T-Mobile's network whenever I try to get the number using the method I read here, it keeps telling me no network is registered. In sort, I can't get my hands on the IMEI number, is there any other way I can get the sim code. Is there software avaliable that can read the phone directly and get the sim code

And you guys who know about these trick sim cards (by-pass sims that look like computer chips) will they work for me. Any help received will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about your problem... are you saying that the IMEI doesn't show up under settings->about phone->status?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dadliman:
Thanks for the reply

I didn't try that....the method I read about had something to do with typing in #??# (I think it was 06 or something the other digits were - I wrote it down somewhere)....I will try the looking under setting and see

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dadliman:
Puzzled?!?!?!?

One more thing....sorry if I'm being redundant....but I'm not sure why other sites are recommending that the user dial *#06* to get the IMEI.....is the number you get by dialing the code somehow different from the number you find in your settings?

I found the IMEI with the directions above (thanks again)....but why don't the other site recommend just going into your settings area....is there a difference somehow....I'm not being doubtful....I'm just a novice to all this

Unlocking Magic?

What is the reasoning behind having to use an unauthorized Sim card to unlock the phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ayush20m:
Its just that the phone recognizes an unauthorized sim card and gives you the option of unlocking it. If it were for the authorized sim card, the phone would boot normally and start with the normal process.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] davidmcc:
Thanks, I'll get it done some how.

MyTouch Unlocking Issues

I recently bought a T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Fender Edition off Craigslist with the intention of unlocking it to AT&T. Along with the phone, I asked the seller to call T-Mobile and get the SIM unlock code so I wouldn't have to pay.

First of all, is it required to have a data plan in order to enter the unlock code? I realize it is required in order to activate the phone (which I completed using the T-Mobile SIM card that the seller did not remove from the phone), but the first time I used the code the seller provided me - using my SIM card, which does not have a data plan attached - it returned "Network unlock attempt unsuccessful". I have emailed her back requesting she call T-Mobile again so I can avoid the awkward situation of having to call them myself.

The second issue may or may not be related to the first. While I cannot unlock the phone, I am still very much able to use every other feature of the phone using my AT&T SIM card (or no SIM card at all). However, when I try to create a new APN setting (the list is originally blank), type in all of the AT&T information, and save it, it does not appear in the list. If APN settings are saved to the SIM card (I don't know if they are), I am thinking that the phone is unable to edit the APN settings of the AT&T SIM card since the phone is not currently unlocked.

Thank you in advance for your help. I just want to use my pretty new phone. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ayush20m:
1. you do not need data connection for unlocking your phone. so maybe you got the wrong code.

2. Did you save the settings?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] blairfrischx:
1. I was thinking the same thing. Has anyone actually had the experience where they attempted an unlock code too many times and locked the feature permanently?

2. Yes, I have tried several times to create a new APN and save it. It has actually appeared after I saved it a total of zero times while using the AT&T SIM card.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ayush20m:
Yes you can permanently lock your phone. I am not sure about how many times you can try.

I am not sure why it is not saving your APN.
