No don't think anyone has figured out how to SIM unlock yet. Atleast if they have I haven't seen a tool be released for it yet. In due time I'm sure there will be though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] atlaswing:
usually tmo customer service will give you one unlock code every 90 days, even on just-released phones. but this time, they simply said they don't have it for the tp2. called twice, no go, rude cs rep on top of that. don't know if they flagged me for some reason, or if they are just not giving it out. everybody, call 611 and ask for it, see if anyone succeeds.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wirelessninja:
Thanks atlaswing,

will try my luck with the Tmo CS, but this can only be for the interim for ~90 days as you said, until one of the gurus here finds out the ultimate divine path to a sweet SIM unlocked TP2 on Tmo!

Unfortunately, T-mobile told me I had to be a customer for at least 90 days before I could get the unlock codes from them :mad:

I got the phone with a new activation. I was even previously a t-mobile customer many years ago.

I was trying this out but cant seem to connect to my home desktop with the VNC Client thats available for free on the market place. It would be cool if I could get this functionality. Anyone else have any issues with this?

The server is set to port 5800 and the user details and IP are all correct.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snelz:
all working fine for me, have you opened your ports on your router/firewall? thats if you have actually got a router.

i open both 5800 and 5900 on router but change the port to 5900 on the vnc app, is what i did
[Touch GSM General] herbie136:
Ok I am a complete newb to smartphones and need some help on a couple of things.

A friend kindly donated his HTC Touch and it is/was locked or the Orange network. After following some of the info on here I have managed to flash to rom to use onyx 4.6 ultimate and I thought I also unlocked it so it can work on any network.

When I insert my three sim card the phone shows as missing or invalid SIM, so...does anyone know if this phone works with three sims cards?

Below is the device info, just incase someone can tell if I have not done somthing to unlock the sim.

Touch version : Elf

Device ID : ELF010000

CID : ORANG001

IPL : 2.11.1002

SPL : 2.28.cmonex

ROM Version : 3.14.706.02

ExtROM Version : Cooked by dsixda

Operator Version: Onyx Ultimate 4.6

AKU Version : 1.6.4

Page Pool : 4 MB

RAM Size : 64 MB

ROM Size : 128 MB

Model No. : ELF0305

Part Number : 99HDM024-00

SIM Unlock Code : 33705973

Many thanks
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
mmm, that sounds like an unusual problem.

You managed to unlock and yet it did not work.

Does other sim cards work?

Can you try out with your friends sim's?
[Touch GSM General] mango1122:
I believe he CID unlocked it. Will need to SIM unlock it also
[Touch GSM General] herbie136:
I have managed to test with an O2 sim and it unlocked with no problems. It looks like 3 sim cards are designed differently as it still shows as missing or invalid sim.

Looks like my daughter may get this phone instead of me :( lol

Thanks for the replies.
[Touch GSM General] hduty:
Only 3G phones work on Three's network, so the Elf will never work on it.
[Touch GSM General] newdecember:
hduty is right there

as the ELF or ELFIN is a 2G phone 3 sims will never work in it i'm afraid,

as the sims are configured only to work in 3G phones,

just thought i might add this as i get a lot of customers at my work (customer services for a major UK mobile network) asking me the same question...
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Ohmy, Three's network is quite 2G unfriendly.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] littlemumford:
hello,

I know there are a few old threads about this but instead of digging up an old one I thought I would start a fresh, seeing how none have answers on.

I have a problem on my raphael, the wifi wont turn on, I click the button in comms manager and nothing happens, it thinks a while and then decides that it wont turn on.

This occured on the original HTC rom and the Energy 3.0 ROM I have on it now.

Has anyone found a fix to this?

Stuart

hard reset or reload a new rom
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] FireGX:
To be honest.. I don't think there is a solution to this problem. If it's the problem that I have, then I think it's a hardware problem. Since you've had it happen on two roms now, it might be safe to say that a hard reset won't work.

My situation is similar to yours, except mine will sometimes turn on (and turn itself off in a few minutes).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] littlemumford:
well!

mild pain, I have tried it over 2 roms 2 radios and a hard reset, so none of them fix it, I dont think it is finding the card properly. :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Cassetti:
I had the same issue, i confirmed with HTC it is a hardware issue (i don't remember the wifi ever working working, but i did not try it for the first 6 months i owned the phone......)

I actually received my replacement phone in the mail (thanks AT&T) last friday
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] FireGX:
My problem is that my phone was bought at an import phone store... So they can't really replace the phone for me (I guess they probably can't afford something like that). All they've tried was to direct me to other places to fix the phone. I'd have to send it overseas to fix it =(.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] littlemumford:
Now that's annoying, I got my phone second hand so really can't send it off for replacement :(

Looks like the data upgrade orange just gave me 250mb - 500 will come in handy after all!

Thanks for your responses people, I think I will add this to the list of known faults on the wiki.

My fuze can turn off display when I am on the call, which is good. However, I want to turn on the screen after the phone leaves away from ear automatically. Can this been achieved? Sometimes I have to check something on the phone or touch number keys during conversation.

At iPhone 3GS there is Google Earth with 3D view of some places mainly monuments, buildings and streets. In Windows Mobile there is Google Maps which is not so powerful.

Is there Google Earth to Windows Mobile? Please inform.

If not, is there some limitation in Windows Mobile devices to run Google Earth?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Remember that the iphone 3GS has the new generation of arm chipsets, just like Palm Pre (coretex A8 or something along those lines). The next generation of HTC products (some rumored to come out this year) will have similar chipsets, some of them more powerful if I'm not mistaken...

There's always been a problem with 3D graphics on this generation of Qualcomm chipsets due to the question of proper drivers. So I don't know if the current chipset is capable, but even if it were, I doubt it'd handle Google Earth without the proper drivers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slight22:
I don't know if the mobile version will suffer from it, but the full PC version of google earth has never been stable and has cause lots of PC's to blue screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amb9800:
OP: nope- looks like there's no Google Earth client for WM.

Well, the Google Earth app runs on the iPhone/iPhone 3G as well, which has a 412 MHz ARM11 CPU and a PowerVR MBX-Lite GPU (a lot slower than the 3GS' Cortex A8 CPU and PowerVR SGX535 GPU). The Qualcomm MSM7200's ATI Imageon GPU hardware is actually theoretically faster than the MBX-Lite, but the implementation is, for whatever reason (drivers, etc.), a lot slower.

So yeah, I'm inclined to think that Google might be concerned about graphics limitations here, because even Google's own Android OS doesn't have a Google Earth client yet-- presumably because most of the popular Android devices are HTC phones with the same MSM7200 internals.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cribeiro:
I have Pro 2 and in general I'm satisfied with it. But also I have access to an iPhone 3GS and I can assure that iPhone is a very fast device, far faster than Pro2. So, I don´t understand:

1 - Why iPhone has no video call?!!!

2 - Why iPhone is so faster compared with Pro2?!!

3 - Why HTC is disable to put graphic part of CPU working?!!!

On the contrary than it´s said, there is an application that permit iPhone to be a multi task device.

Racing car games on iPhone run so well like a PC, and the same with Google Earth. It's incredible the speed of iPhone in all applications. Also there are hundred of applications to iPhone.

However I don´t know why iPhone GPS only works properly with Navigon and not so well with Tomtom!!!

If iPhone had video call, a better GPS and a 800x480 screen (it's only 480x320 - 3.5"), it would be by far the best device in the market mainly due to the speed of it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amb9800:
There are a few reasons for this- first, the iPhone 3GS has far superior processing power compared to the TP2, and second, WM can't even make full use of what power the TP2 does have.

To address the first point, the 3GS has an ARM Cortex A8 CPU at 600 MHz (867 MHz underclocked for heat/power savings). Cortex A8 is twice as fast, clock-for-clock, as the ARM11 architecture. The TP2's Qualcomm MSM7200 CPU has an ARM11 at 528 MHz, so in raw processing power, the 3GS is 2-3x faster. Further, MSM7200 lacks ARM11's VFP option, so all floating-point operations are done by software, while the Cortex A8 has the NEON floating-point accelerator. As a result, the 3GS is 40-50x faster than the TP2 at floating-point operations, which iPhone OS X uses quite heavily.

On the graphics end, Apple chose to pair the Cortex A8 with a PowerVR SGX 535 GPU, which blows away everything short of Tegra (about 40% slower than Tegra's GPU, but Tegra's CPU is a slow 600 MHz ARM11, so 3GS' CPU is >200% faster). The SGX 535 is even faster than the Qualcomm Snapdragon's GPU (an ATI Imageon Z430), and from what's been seen so far, the 3GS' GPU is often 10-30x faster than HTC's implementation of the MSM7200 (in TP2/TD2/G1/etc.).

Now onto the second point- Windows CE, which underpins Windows Mobile, only targets the ancient ARMv5 instruction set, so it can't take advantage of newer CPU features, like hardware floating-point units. In addition, WM lacks a composited desktop- so while the iPhone/Pre/Android OSes all use GPU acceleration to handle their UI, WM relies on the CPU, so it can never be as smooth, for the same reason that Windows XP's UI can never be quite as smooth as Vista/7 (which have GPU-composited desktops).

So the result of that is that even if you feed WM a lot of processing power, it won't perform as well as other mobile OSes due to its ancient architecture. See the Toshiba TG01, for example- its 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU (whose architecture is even faster than Cortex A8) is over 60% faster than the 3GS', and its GPU is almost as fast, yet in many cases the 3GS still blows it away in usability and app performance.

HTC saved money by going with the same old Qualcomm MSM7200 chipset for the TP2/TD2, but in reality, even a Snapdragon chip wouldn't solve WM's architectural deficiencies. That won't change until MS moves beyond CE5/6 (probably with WM7 in late 2010).

Stock iPhones can't multitask beyond Apple's own included apps (iTunes, Mail, etc.), but if you jailbreak the phone (a simple 5-minute process- much simpler than flashing a WM ROM), apps like Backgrounder let you multitask. Apple thoroughly optimized its software to extract the most out of its hardware, and it really shows if you push the phone hard-- even the original iPhone/3G perform quite well given their hardware.

As for video calling, no US carrier supports it, and even in Europe, usage rates are abysmal and the quality's usually poor, so it doesn't make too much sense for Apple to integrate until it can guarantee an iChat-quality video experience.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] NuShrike:
Actually, the OS targets ARMv4 so it's even worse, but makes it great to backport the OS to ancient devices.

However, the OS can take advantage of hardware FPU (detects for it even), but NO ODM will turn on the necessary OS support for it even if they ship a device with FPU in it, such as the S3C6410 in the OmniaII/Acer *900, and all the Snapdragon devices. They're all really lazy and enforces that if MS doesn't hand it on a silver platter to them, they won't make it themselves. They rather make more money shipping as many shoddy devices as possible (HTC).

So WM is a pretty poor platform to be on especially with a MSM7200 cpu crippling everybody. Google would be smart to dump HTC/Qualcomm's shackles and move to a modern platform for Android, and WM won't get there first.

It would be especially smart to just stop buying ANY device with a MSM7200 cpu in it unless all you want is feature-phone capabilities.

Google Earth Client on HD2

Yes, but is there a good reason why an HD2 couldn't handle a Google Earth client (or do you need to load Android instead of WM6.5 to make it work) ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] amb9800:
Snapdragon's GPU hardware is almost as powerful as the iPhone 3GS' (though driver implementation is still less than optimal), so I'm sure it could handle a Google Earth client. That said, Google's unlikely to release one for WM at this point...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ChosenWonn:
Wow. Now that I am thoughly depressed that I paid 4x as much for my slower and less useful TP2 than for an iphone, I am going to have a hard time paying hte bill on this thing!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yellowfunbus:
Hi to everyone.

I've just bought a HTC Diamond on the vodafone network, but need to unlock it as I'm on O2's network.

I've been able to install SPL 1.4 and this shows on the boot loader page.

The problem seems to come when I try and install the 'new' rom. It goes through the whole stage up to 100%. Then on the device it says error code please try again. On my Pc it says error code 226. I've tried it on a windows vista pc, and again on XP. I've also tried it by installing it direct onto the internal storage. This again goes through the installation up to and including 1005, but then come sup with a new screen on the device saying that the update and the radio have both failed to install.

I'd really like to unlock my device and to have a new rom so that I dont have all the vodafone branding.

Like many others, I'm willing to contribute so that research and new software is developed, and I have also read the forums for many hours trying to find a solution to my problem before posting.

Hopefully I can be directed to some help.

Kind regards.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] yellowfunbus:
Just to update and incase anyones interested.

I ended up downloading the latest version of the official rom that I could find, then extracted the nbh file using winrar, and installed that from the internal storage which has successfully worked.

Not sure why the other rom image I had wouldn't work, just glad I've got rid of the vodafone bits really.

Regards.

3VO BETA AREA

I will be posting BETA ROMS with newer development core in this post. Please check back weekly for updates.

Please be aware that ROM testing is for advanced users ONLY. I am not responsible for any damage ANY ROM could cause to your device. I will not and currently DO NOT provide support for ROMS. You will have to read the forums and search XDA to find answers to your problems. BETA ROMS and not meant for stability and daily use. BETA ROMS are meant only for bug testing and reporting. Flash at your own risk!

Flashing instructions

:

** note: HTC MAPLE DEVICES ONLY (Dash3G, HTC SNAP S52X)! Will NOT work on HTC OZONE or HTC SNAP S511!

** note: HARDSPL by JockyW HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

** note: Your phone must be application unlocked. If it is not, please run SDA Application Unlock.exe via Activesync (attached below).

** note: If your device is not HardSPL (highly recommended, click here), you must verify which version SPL your device has prior to flashing. Do this by turning off the device. While holding the volume down button, power on the device. You will see "SPL-1.17" or "SPL-1.19". Run the appropriate auto-?.bat to JumpSPL your device for a successful flash.

Remove your SD Card

If your device is already hardSPL, proceed to step 10

If using JumpSPL, boot your device up to your homescreen

Download and unzip the ROM package file

If flashing a custom cooked ROM, run auto.bat, or auto_1.17.bat, or auto_1.19.bat (depending on your SPL version)

Follow the prompts in the DOS window

Hit "continue" (trackball button) on your phone, screen will turn black

Run RomUpdateUtility.exe (if it doesn't run via the script)

The flash will take about 5 minutes

If your device is already HardSPL, simply run RomUpdateUtility.exe and follow the prompts

Upon first boot, it will seem frozen for a few minutes, maybe even go black. This is NORMAL!

Enjoy!

In case something goes wrong:

Remove the battery and the SD Card--> Put ONLY the battery back in.

While holding the volume down button, press the power button

The multicolor bootloader screen will come up

Plug in the USB cable and flash back your original shipped ROM

Find out what went wrong and reflash this ROM properly
