I just don't see how it's acquiring after a wipe. I didn't have my APN settings until I went to Turkey and the phone was in roaming mode. Before that I entered them myself and they went away after a wipe. Oh well, the phone does boot without a sim, I'll just do that. Thanks for your help everyone.
[G1 General] AdamPI:
How is it costly if you don't need credit.

O2: Free

Vodafone: Free

T-mobile: Free

Orange: £0.97

Virgin: Free (these were 97p when I ordered one a couple of weeks ago :()

Tesco: Free

Three: free

Edit: Added Three, since I'd listed the others, the 3 offer is weird, they send you 2 sim cards which get free calls and texts between them!
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Well I was speaking from what I know about us carriers, they all charge $ here for prepaid sim's here. But I wish it was like that here.
[G1 General] shaolinx:
there is a method to disable the lock screen from "no sim card" with adb. You should try that, its very handy
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ambitousridah:
Hi im really sorry if this may have been covered countless times but as the phone is still relatively new I have posted to limit the chances of applying an incorrect rom.

I've had my Magic for a couple of months now and recently decided to root the phone, (its a Vodafone UK HTC Magic - PVT32B) and i followed the instructions to root via androidandme with the 1clickroot program to cyanogens 4.1 rom. its all going fine for now however in going through the steps it appears i did NOT back up the original rom for the magic- i backed up my recovery image but not the actual rom image. I've seen some sites suggest downloading the DREAIMG file or something similar however this relates to the G1 - to which even if it did work it would brand my phone as a Tmobile handset just like it is now with cyanogens ROM.

was wondering If anyone had a clean Vodafone UK rom (wiped/cleaned so no user data is present) prob from a nandroid backup or something - i do have Cyanongens 1.4 recovery image installed. Sorry to be picky but i dont want to risk bricking and would like to go back to the stock rom or at least have it inthe event i wanted togo back- these Tmobile ones come bundled with apps i /cant/ use and waste space such as the built in IM app or cyanogens amazon.com app which is useless in the UK.

i thank you in advance for any help you may give and apologise again if this has been covered < 9000 times already
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pandemik.0:
I have a different phone can't help much, but I will suggest something but while you're looking for a stock ROM, I'd recomend doing a nandroid backup of your phone as it is now (if you have it up and running 100%), because if there is a problem in future at least you could go back to that. :)

Well, thats the brilliance of android, you can back up your phone often, we should all do it :)

I lost my stock backup, but have happily stuck with cyanogen since though. I'm sure someone here will have a nandroid of their blank phone. In between changing ROMs, someone could load their old backup, factory reset, nandroid that again, then go on to their new roms.

We really need a good list of download links of stock ROMs up somewhere, this would help devs sort out some issues too I'd imagine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ambitousridah:
thanks for the reply, i couldnt agree with you more, i am quite happy with cyanogen now, particulary as ive found more use withthe phone now its rooted however we realy need a consistent storage of default roms and a central area for ROM creators to submit thier versions whilst having stock roms available for those who want to to back.

im guessing this may be a more common thing since the 1click root came along, guess it started people rooting who really shouldnt be (not excluding myself from that list) but i imagine bricked phones-a-plenty.

thanks again for the help. i may as well make a backup as u say whilst its working- least before it all goes tits-up

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Weed1:
Hi everyone,

I realise that this seems like a really strange question so I will try to explain.

I have recently got an unbranded touch pro 2 and I really like it however there is one major problem I have with it and that is that I have really bad reception at my house which i find extremely frustrating, as that is where I am alot of the time.

There are however places where I get one or two bars but they are in like corners of my room or right by the window which is really anoying when I have to stand leaning towards my windows just to have a phone call. Which comes to my question, is it possible through bluetooth to use my computer as a type of "headset" where when a phone call comes through it will notify me on my pc screen and I can answer and talk through my mic and speakers of the pc? As I am usually by my computer and it would be alot easier for me.

Or even better is there any hack to boost the signal for the phone I have tried different radio versions and it does not seem to help but on my other phone I get 2-3 bars?

Or do you think it is possible to get a custom back cover that has some sort of signal booster?

Thanks.

And sorry if this is a really stupid question but this signal problem is really pi***ng me off, as it is such a nice phone otherwise.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xnifex:
why not leave your phone by the window & use a bluetooth headset?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vdKarel:
Then you'd need to wear an in-ear piece throughout the whole day. Not very comfortable.

I don't know of any program to use the PC as a handsfree set but aren't there any devices available which boost your phone signal?

Hey Quadboy67,

Follow this order:

First you have to unlock the CID (http://leovasconcelos.googlepages.com/CIDUnlonckHTCTouchROM.rar). Download and install the .cabs on your HTC. Then download the IPL/SPL 3.14 (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=163012&d=1236103242) and install on your device. Okay, now you can update your ROM.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuzeNoobie05:
Hi Guys,

I am new to this community, I just purchased an AT&T HTC Fuze (my first smartphone) and I would like some assistance in making it nicer than it already is. I have seen the results of flashing the EnergyRom from some of your guy's posts, but I do not want to risk making it a brick without addressing some questions.

Currently the OS on the phone is Windows Mobile 6.1, the Energy ROM is for 6.5, how do I upgrade from wm6.1 to wm6.5 or is there an Energy ROM for wm6.1?

More info on the phone: The bootloader (tri-color) screen shows the following

'Raph110'

SPL-1.95.0000

Micro-Raph (LED) v13

MicroP-Raph (KEY) v55

'Serial' on the white screen.

I read the thread 'Flashing your First GSM Raphael Rom (For Noobs)' http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=448008, but I am skeptical to doing this now, because I haven't even found the EnergyROM for wm6.1.

Any contribution you can make in helping me set up my phone with the EnergyROM would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kevindena:
Well before you do anything, you have to make sure you flash your device with "Hard SPL." If you read that guide, I'm sure you would've seen something about that.

And you can go to 6.5 from 6.1 without any problems. It doesn't matter what's on your device right now. Once you flash HardSPL you can flash whatever ROM you want.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuzeNoobie05:
That is very good information that you have given me.

One more question: How do I install the AddOns?, some that I want are found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=536751.

Thank you!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kevindena:
when you download those "add-ons" you'll get a .CAB file. Connect your device to your computer using the USB cable and place the .CAB file on the root of your Fuze. If you need clarification on that let me know.

Once you put the .CAB file on your device, using a file explorer program, find the file and click on it and it will install.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
1 minor point you appear to not to have got yet (but you will when you start flashing!):

The windows version and the rom are linked. Each rom is built round a windows version & build and then tweaked by the chef. Its not like a pc where you install windows then put stuff on that, the rom is a custom made windows specific for your phone.

Welcome to the fourms & have fun flashing until you get the phone you want!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuzeNoobie05:
Root?

Yeah, some clarification on what you mean by 'place the file on root' would be helpful. When I download the AddOns they are .rar files and what I tried doing was just placing it in the Programs folder on the Fuze. It did some installation, but I did not get anything.

Root clarification then I guess?

Thanks for your patience.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuzeNoobie05:
Got It.

Okay I got it to work, I installed the AddOns that I wanted. It took a little bit of trial and error, but I got it.

Thanks anyway!

One more thing that I would like to do, but not sure where to get info or if its even possible.

I do not have a data subscription plan with my carrier, is it possible to install mapping information on the phone and have GPS capability without having to have a dataplan?

If this is possible then please let me know how to proceed or where I can get more information...

Thanks in Advance...

P.S. This forum is great.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kevindena:
hey sorry I didn't see your request for clarification, but I'm glad you finally got it working.

But as far as GPS without a data plan... As far as I know the only way to do that is if you use a program like Garmin or TomTom. However, if you choose to do, you'll have to actually purchase the map files for your specific location. The program itself should be available for free though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
GPS is free, the satellites are already up there and your phone has a receiver so thats the easy bit!

As kevindena said, you'll probably need to buy the map software (or maps) to show you what you want.

Google maps is free - but requires a live internet connection (wifi or 3g)

Tomtom is for road navigation - free software but maps are £££

Garmin (i believe) is similar to tomtom, as is Co-pilot

However, depending what it is you actually want the gps to give you...

There is atleast 1 aero-map piece of software out there (i dont know what, i dont fly)

In the UK i'm 95% sure you can buy the OS maps so you can hike/walk/cycle about the countryside.

There is almost certainly a marine map option to allow sailing & boating.

And on here somewhere (cant remember where it was) someone made a simple, fullscreen speedo running from the gps (free).

All the GPS does is tell you where you are, the software then overlays that on the map system of your choice.

[Android Software Development] cvandeplas:
Since I bought my HTC Hero two weeks ago I can't stop enjoing the device.

Except one thing: Currently no OpenVPN client exists yet for the Android platform.

While searching Google I could find people referring to successfull ports of openvpn, but all discussions were vague and all links were dead.

This resulted in the motivation to work on making openvpn available on Android.

For the last weeks I have been reading documentation and already started coding a very basic GUI. (listing and editing configuration files)

Being fairly novice to Android, and expecting I'm not the only one envying such functionality I am starting a Call for Participation trying to reach other developers interested to work on the project.

As structure of this application I see the following parts:

1) GUI stuff to manage configurations (view, create, edit and delete). Tunnel management (connect, disconnect, view log, view ip) would also be done here. (language: java)

2) background daemon sending notifications about the tunnel state (don't know if that's necessary) (language: java)

3) ported openvpn client that parses the config and does the real work. (language: c)

It looks like other projects already provide the necessary tun kernel drivers. Rooting your device will be necessary to be able to load the driver.

Being supportive to open source software I'd like to keep the code open.

Discussions about selling the (compiled) GUI on the Market are possible.

Interested developers can reply here or contact me at christophe@vandeplas.com.

Some interesting links:

I haven't gotten it to work yet, still just a black screen for me also but I found out it connects to 127.0.0.1 7890 which I assume is supposed to be the management interface of openvpn.

I added "management 127.0.0.1 7890" to my openvpn config and can se the monitor app talking to it but still the black screen.

Just thought I should share it, perhaps someone else will figure out the next step in getting this working.
