[Touch Pro2 CDMA] californiarailroader:
It's an FCC thing, they have not authorized the GSM radio in it for use in the United States, even though it can do 850/1900 GSM. I'm afraid the GSM in these things is strictly for traveling outside the USA. It will show the GSM networks here, as you have found out, but the networks here will not allow it to use them, so no amount of hacks will make it work.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Oh SoS:
Are you sure about it being an "FCC thing"?

There have been a few reports of people getting an unlock code, and getting their hybrid TP2 to work domestically...sans 3G connectivity, apparently.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=555067

The cheapest I've found for an unlock code for the TP2 is $20 from here:

http://www.uniquephones.com/

but I don't know what their success rate is like; some companies charge as much as $35 for one.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] californiarailroader:
That's a Canadian version though, I'm sure the models sold there are not subject to US FCC Laws.

The Verizon version if you get the unlock code, it will work in the US GSM.

Gsm not enabled

Hi does anyone know if there is a work around for this it sounds like a firmware thing and not a hardware limitation also I have installed 6.5 on my GSM TP2 is there an SPL for the cdma version yet sorry to post here on this however im trying to get to the bottom of this

Thanks in advance for any help
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] christr:
I got my Verizon TP2 unlocked (just emailed support and they mailed back the unlock code). Popped in my Orange (UK) SIM, told the phone to use GSM only and was able to TXT/call from it and receive calls/TXT just fine via my UK number. (I'm physically in the US).

So it's not a lock so much on registering with US networks... but it may be a lock on US GSM SIM cards so you can't go toss in your TMobile (US) SIM and dump VZ service.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] .mak:
This is great news! I like to unlock any GSM enabled phone I get for Verizon, just in case I ever decide to leave - so I can take my phone with me :D

I'll be unlocking mine tomorrow when I get it, if they'll allow it. I've been a customer for over a year, and they allowed it on the Storm and Tour, so this shouldn't be a problem.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] christr:
I've been with them for several years and as far as I know as long as you're current on your bill they'll give you the unlock code. I had mine for 2 whole days and they gave it to me. :)

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dooglesmail:
Well thats good news I will see if Sprint allows me to do the same as I have accounts with AT&T and TMO also I would really like to use this on my ATT plan but it appears from reading the previous posts that perhaps US based sims are locked out I will attempt to unlock it tommorow nonetheless and see what happens on the other hand my VZW Storm worked like a charm after getting it unlocked ........... for some reason this seems different though if the FCC notice is read at face value Anyone having any experience with this giving feedback would be much appreciated

Are you with VZW OR Sprint
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] unorthodoxx:
Yes are we talking VZW or Sprint?

I have had my phone two days on VZW. The CSR first said I have to wait 60 days, then checked with T2 and came back and said it is not available. I am sure he doesn't know what I was talking about. I will call again and then a third and if that doesn't work I will just email support as mentioned above. I need an unlock code before November as I will be on the road again overseas and I don't want to pay crazy International VZW rates!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] railslave:
mmmmmmmm. do i have a fellow railroader on this site besides me??????
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] unorthodoxx:
Hmmm VZW Global support was not given the instructions to SIM unlock this TP2 from HTC. Sounds strange to me, has anyone had any luck getting it unlocked in order to use and overseas SIM while overseas instead of the VZW SIM with access to high rates?

I will contact HTC.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kennamer:
Hello,

I'm trying to learn how to install a bone stock T-Mobile 1.5 OEM ROM and allow it to keep root access (I'm not interested in apps2sd, etc.). Can someone tell me what the MINIMUM files are that need to be removed or modified to allow this?

I am currently running enomther's TMO OTA CRC1 ROM US, Cyanogen's 1.4 recovery, Haykuro's bootloader, and the 2.22.19.26I radio. It's all good, but I just want to learn how to tinker with my own stock ROM.

Where I'm at:

I removed the radio and recovery images from the 1.5 OEM (so I wouldn't overwrite the current ones) and various .apks I didn't want. I also removed the check_prereq after noticing it wasn't in enomther's ROM.

After signing the ROM package, I go to install it, and everything looks great until halfway through the progress bar when it hangs on 'couldn't find check_prereq, error on line 1'.

I'm afraid to add it back in because it's not in other modified ROMs. I couldn't find much searching for check_prereq, but assume it compares the current ROM version to the one it is trying to overwrite? I read about signing a ROM with a test key, but was under the impression I was already doing that (using autosign.bat).

Can someone educate me on what else I need to do?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fyp:
Hi, I have made an application on the phone which collects the data from the built-in sensors, and now I'm trying to use socket programming to send the data to my laptop. Basically, I put the following socketing code in my application code and wrote another server program on my laptop to set up the connection between the cellphone and the laptop. But it doesnt seem to work....my phone shows a debug message "No I/O"...meaning, I guess, the phone is actually not sucessfully connected to the laptop. Could anybody pls teach me the right way to do this? communication either through wifi (my laptop and phone both already logged onto the campus network), or usb(the phone is directly connected to the laptop by a usb cable). Thank you!

Client code on the phone:

public void listenSocket(){

//Create socket connection

try{

socket = new Socket("localhost", 4444);

out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(

socket.getOutputStream())), true);

} catch (UnknownHostException e) {

socketMsg.setText("Unknown host: localhost");

} catch (IOException e) {

socketMsg.setText("No I/O");

}

}

Server code on the laptop:

import java.io.BufferedReader;

import java.io.IOException;

import java.io.InputStreamReader;

import java.io.PrintWriter;

import java.net.ServerSocket;

import java.net.Socket;

class SocketServer1 {

public static void main(String[] args){

ServerSocket server = null;

Socket client = null;

BufferedReader in = null;

PrintWriter out = null;

try{

server = new ServerSocket(4444);

} catch (IOException e) {

System.out.println("Could not listen on port 4444");

System.exit(-1);

}

System.out.println("Server is ready");

try{

client = server.accept();

System.out.println("Server is not accepting data");

} catch (IOException e) {

System.out.println("Accept failed: 4444");

System.exit(-1);

}

try{

in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.getInputStream()));

out = new PrintWriter(client.getOutputStream(), true);

} catch (IOException e) {

System.out.println("Accept failed: 4444");

System.exit(-1);

}

//Clean up

try{

in.close();

out.close();

server.close();

} catch (IOException e) {

System.out.println("Could not close.");

System.exit(-1);

}

}

}

PS. I guess the problem may be the server_name and port_number set on my phone are not correct....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] helderp:
After a quick look, and please take into consideration I never did Android programming, in the client, instead of trying to connect to the server you are trying to connect to localhost, wich means, you are trying to connect to your phone. You need to replace localhost with the ip of your server. The port seems to be ok since you are opening a server socket in your server in the port 4444
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fyp:
Hi thank you helderp! I think I've figuired it out. what you suggested is one of the reasons.

just for your info, the other BIG reason, which is actually about android programming, is that in "AndroidManifest.xml" file should add in "<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET">"....

Here is a simple and unintrusive way to stop active sync from constantly turning itself on.

Start

Settings

"go to bottom of screen and scroll right"-Connections

Wireless Manager

"go to bottom of screen and select"-Settings

Phone

"go to bottom of screen and scroll right"-Time Zone

un-check "Automatic Change Time Zone and Clock"

And that is it. Yes, it is that simple. No software needed. No complex BS.

It will still self start when connected to a computer, and it will still work fine if you want to turn it on. This will stop it from constantly "self starting" all on it's own when you don't want it to.

Developer Info

I will soon post instructions how to setup your packages to be recognized on server for App Store.

Things you can create:

ROMs - fully loaded or base ROM

Packages - All sorts of add-ons for your ROMs

Tweaks - any tweaks, can be CAB, Reg or XML file

Themes - create themes and share them on the App Store

Cob webs have been cleared.

Flowchart and App design layout all complete.

First line of code is about to be laid out...

21-09-09 18:13

Busy weekend coding away. The base of the ROM creation tool and app store have been laid. Format for developers to place their stuff on server has been finalized. Will not take much work from developer to place their work on server and in App Store.

If any developer (Chef, app developer or modder) would like to get a head start on getting their packages ready feel free to PM me. Once I am 100% sure that the current format for developers is the one we are going with then I will publish instructions.

This will work on any WinMo device but the first device to be fully supported will be the HTC Touch Pro2.

To the authors who wrote me nasty private messages claiming that I am stealing someone's work.

Enough already, people do come up with the same idea's but have different philosophies on how to accomplish an objective. Look at Ford, GM, Chrysler, Apple, Sun, Microsoft and any other type of industry. IT IS NOT STEALING SOMEONE'S WORK!

Now sit down and grab your favorite drink...

Some where like 10 million years ago, give or take a few million years, humans began to walk the earth and as they did different groups spread out to different parts of the globe. As each group evolved and without any interaction betwen the groups, you know...no internet at the time...they developed the same tools for their survival. It is part of human evolution for people to think the same way and come up with the similar tools...

It is VERY CLEAR that there a few people who prefered that I was not around. What could it be? Are you jealous? Do you feel threatened by me for some reason? Are you insecure in your own work and wish that someone who may produce a better product was not around? I have not done anything wrong to anyone so I do not know what it can be. So please be straight with me and tell me.

Enough already please. If you do not like me for any reason then leave me alone. You will not get me to go no matter what you do.
