I don't know anyone with on a different network.

Its the security software thats messing things up for me
[HTC Excalibur] Nicky_B:
Unlocking S620

I have a HTC S620 that is locked to T-mobile network.

I have 3rd party security software on the phone so when I insert my Vodafone SIM an switch it on the screens flicks between the security software and the unlock code text box.

Is there any way to unlock the device with the T-mobile SIM still in the phone?

I have recently unlocked a Nokia device by inputting the +pw etc and the unlock code.

Is there a sequence I can follow like this for my S620?

Thank you

Unlocking S620 text box

I've had a look at that thread but it seems to be some guy that can give you the unlock code.

I actually need to bring the text box up without putting in a new SIM.

I've already got the code I need to put in.

There must be some way of making the text box appear without putting in a new SIM. It must be part of the firmware and should have some way of making the program run.

I've also contacted HTC tech support to see if they can help. But if anyone knows how to do this please let me know asap.

If HTC come back with an answer I shall post it on here.

Thank you

Trying to watch a video on a website but it says that I need the latest version of Flash Player to view the video.

Any ideas on how to get around this ?

I bought the acer m900 with its 3.8 vga and then bought coreplayer....... im itching to see a movie on this device,,,,,,,,

Where do I buy a movie?
[Off-topic] jamespaulritter:
No wonder apple is kicking but in mobile entertainment. I have been searching for hours and still cant find an easy way to get a movie onto my device.

I have found that you can read a dozen threads for hours and download multiple files to rip a DVD and then convert it.

I just want to go to a site and pay a one time 15 dollar fee and download a movie.

I think its possible in itunes and will coreplayer play the movie?
[Off-topic] stylez:
$15 buy the movie on DVD and convert with one of the many free tools available, worth it just for a hard-copy :)
[Off-topic] crissg:
You have some choices

WM is not as simple to set up as Apple, but it's not locked down the way Apple is either, and I'm fine with that. With that out of the way, there are a few ways you can get movies onto your device:

If you want to go the rip and convert route AudialsOne is a great program to use. You can check it our here :

http://audials.com/en/free_music_videos_downloads/index.html

I have my cable connected to my PC tuner card and use Windows Media Center to capture movies and TV, which can then be synched with my Tilt and watched wherever.

You can also of course DL movies from torrents or Usenet, which will play on your device.

I wish MS would add movies to the Zune Marketplace, because that media is also playable on our phones, but so far it is only TV.

I hope that helps
[Off-topic] ANULADOO:
well the best way would be converting the movies of ur choice through a converter..dont waste ur money buyin movies from sites..which u dont even know will play perfectly on ur device..n u end up wasting money on a converter..

:cool:
[Off-topic] jamespaulritter:
I guess I was barking up the wrong tree. Thanks for the tun around. Ive never ripped a dvd or converted but I went to download.com and downloaded WinX DVD Ripper and its converting Superman right now.
[Off-topic] cytokine:
I've got the Touch HD and I love to watch movies on it. WVGA screens are making it truly possible on mobile phones, although FWVGA would be better, due to the extra 54 pixels in width (854x480), which is the more native 16:9 aspect.

Even though it's easier getting movies on an iphone, I don't think it's screen is anywhere near as suitable for movies. Too low-res (below SD resolution), too square. 2:3 is troublesome even for youtube, lol.
[Off-topic] stylez:
Glad you getting there :)

The software i use:

Magic DVD Ripper : Awesome quality DVD Rips

A-One FLV to AVI : Very easy converter for compressing to Mobile format don't be fooled by the name as it will convert anything to .mp4 etc

Just a couple of hints.

Encode to resolution of device

Keep the Audio quality down as no phones are great and will keep overall file size down.

Same framerate as sorce you can find source framerate via right click properties on sorce .avi etc "otherwise you will get the classic 2-1 pulldown effect jittery on pans etc"

Hope that helps.

PocketDivx Encoder (google it) will convert anything your PC has codecs for. Works a treat and despite its name, it will convert to just about any device going including a full 1080p TV :D
[Off-topic] jamespaulritter:
Hello Monty,

That s a funny coincidence. Thats the one I downloaded. I'm on my 3rd attempt to place a movie on the device. The first time I couldn't find the file when it was finished. The second time the movie had subtitles because I forgot to uncheck the option. And now this 3rd time it is running with setting recomendations I got in another thread and it is taking forever. I started it it at 5am and now its 12:30 and its 3/4ths done on a 150 minute movie.

WinX DVD Ripper video format H264

With PocketDivx Encoder i was real confused by the aspect settings. I t has 2 boxes that are adjustable and I couldn't get either to read 800X480.

Everything new has a learning curve. The more flexibility the more you have to learn. There is always dumbed down options available and these are for people who have money and are too lazy to learn and have to pay somebody to do it for them; people like this are held hostage forever more.

When people opt for learning they keep their brains working till old age but young people don't ever think they will ever get old. I've got a history of Alzheimer's in the family so I am aware of keeping my brain cells ticking by learning new tricks every day.

I've used to use pocketdivX but the small screens are too tiring for me now and I've stopped encoding (until I get one of those video-goggles that make video BIG!!!). Never had a problem to encode for the HTC Universal. Great screen.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bakzoom:
Hello. I'm new to this forum and this is my first post. I just received my HTC Touch HD (T8285) yesterday and had some questions. So far, I had a chance to play with the phone for about 2 hours and I'm loving it. The phone is Telstra branded and has the Windows 6.1 software installed. I purchased the phone through eBay from a seller in Austrailia.

I did some research on these forums and read the dummy guide on how to Flash ROMs but I'm still a little confused. Now, I know there are other members of this forum who have also asked some of these questions but they appear to be in several different threads. I in hopes that one of you XDA Developers forum members can point me in the right direction.

The first thing I did was to check what SPL version I have. I hope I got that right. It appears that it's 1.15. I then followed the dummy guide and downloaded all of the necessary files for a USPL flash. I hope I got that right too.

Now I'm stuck at the point of which ROM to flash. I've seen forum members recommend Dutty's WM6.5 R7 M2.5 Thriller and Laurentius 26's THDV3.55_WWE_Ultimate ROM but I don't know which one to install. Does anyone have a recommendation on which one, either the two mentioned above or any others, would be the best ROM for me to flash? I'm looking for something that will tweak performance, improve the graphics, have new features not currently on the phone and also have little or no bugs as I use this phone everyday.

Also, what are the steps to flashing a ROM. I do not have a micro SD card in my phone at this time. I am planning on purchasing one but not anytime soon.

One last question, I have AT&T and I put my SIM card in. The phone says 3G AT&T on the home screen but I cannot access the internet through 3G. I get an error saying there's some connection issue. I clicked on Settings and it takes me to the Connections screen of the Settings window. There, it says "Telstra Internet" and the follows that up with "This connection is pre-configured. It cannot be modified." and below that it gives me the option for "My Work Network". I'm hoping that flashing the ROM will also help with this.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Welcome to XDA. I hope you enjoy your stay.

First off, to ask which rom would you recommend is an opinionated question and would create an endless amount of responses due to everyone having different likes & dislikes, thus creating a large thread. Due to this these sort of questions are frowned upon and are generally closed by moderators. As this is your first post, I'll forgive you this time and would ask you to read the forum rules before creating new threads.

Secondly, the steps to flashing a rom can be found here in this dummies guide. All you need can be found there. Any problems flashing, ask your questions in that thread and plenty of people including myself will help you if you get stuck along the way.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bakzoom:
Thanks Fallen Spartan. I'll check out the link you provided and will follow the rules.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
No problems. Any issues you have try and post in relevant thread. If you cannot find a thread you also have choice to PM someone and ask for advice as well. My door is always open to anyone who needs it!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DRTigerlilly:
The reason you can't configure it, or connect to ATT's 3g is b/c you're running the Telstra rom, and Telstra has modified it so that you can't put other settings in it.

Technically...

There are ways around Telsta's machinations.

First....put the ATT 3g settings in the Work Connection, since you can't modify the other one.

Second you're going to have to modify a file in Opera, b/c opera is set up to be routed through Telstra's proxy.

This guide should pretty much tell you all the steps you're going to need.

And to fully experience the richness of your phone, you're going to need the sd card & fast. I do find it strange it didn't ship with one. Both my HD's (t8282 & t8285) did.

As for your last comment, once you flash the rom, (and it's generally better/safer to flash from the card...and glad you've chosen to go the route of uspl) you'll be able to put your settings where you please, and won't have the restrictions of the Telstra rom.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
SAFEST WAY TO FLASH YOUR ROM IS THROUGH STORAGE CARD METHOD ALSO WITH USPL:

Copy BLACIMG.NBH into the root dir of your Storage Card.

Be sure to have at least 30% of charge.

Turn off your device by using the Power Button.

Go to Boot loader mode. Push and hold Vol. Down + press Power button.

Be sure that Device is connected to PC first before inputting the Storage card

Input Storage card when you see USB displaying on screen.

Now run USPL.

If all instruction is followed device will start upgrading through Storage Card.

Always ensure that you run USPL before flashing any rom when using USPL method.

ALTERNATIVE WAY OF FLASHING YOUR ROM WITH RUU.exe

Extract Rom download Folder.

Be sure to have at least 50% of charge.

Turn off your device by using the Power Button

Go to Boot loader mode. Push and hold Vol. Down + press Power button.

Connect your device to PC

Run BlackStoneCustomRuu.exe and follow the screen instructions.

TESTING THE ROM FOR PERFORMANCE

For users who has issues with the Rom, just try this, I have been using the rom for awhile and havent some of these issues, I will try and collect the bug reports unless someone else ca ndo for me.

Recommendations to trying the Rom.

Flash the rom

Hard reset/clear storage

DO NOT INSTALL ANY 3RD PARTY APPS UNTIL TRYING THE ROM FIRST, This is due to anumber of reasons new files drivers etc.

I dont use 3rd part apps or messed with tweaking ,as my rom is fully tweaked as how i use it daily.

After testing the rom and ur happy, INSTALL ONE APP at a time and use it, soft reset and try the device to see if anything strange or any bug as arise.

do this for other apps until u find ur source of the bug
