[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Jason85:
If I was to unlock the SIM and put in a prepaid AT&T SIM, would the phone receive calls from both numbers at the same time? Or is it one or the other?

Jason
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] adrianh85:
one at a time when the gsm radio is on the cdma radio is off and visvera!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Jason85:
Ahhhh I suspected that. It would be an interesting feature for some business users to be able to have one handset with 2 numbers, for personal and business use. Or maybe someone already does...

Jason
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] adrianh85:
as of right now no one has reported being able to have both radios on at the same time! i have tryed and so far got no where at all!! but it would be a great feature!!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] msh441:
OK, I've sucessfully SIM unlocked my phone through Verizon.

I'm planning an extended trip to Mexico in January (and possibly February). My original plan was to get a pre-paid SIM card south of the border and run at local rates for that period of time. There is tons of WiFi where I'm at in Manzanillo and Barre de Navidad so I was planning on using that.

But now I'm confused... a few posts in this thread have mentioned Data (albeit the slower EDGE network) using prepaid SIM cards. I don't understand how this works and was wondering if someone could explain it to me.

So temted right now to stick my Sprint SIM card from my work phone into my TP2 and see what happens.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] fortunz:
A Google Voice # would allow this, it's a pretty sweet service. I've also heard of dual sim phones before.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sweena1:
I tried getting the unlock codes from Verizon yesterday and they keep giving me the runaround about international service being available...blah, blah..."Thank you for contacting Verizon Wireless, my name is Chris, and I am happy to assist you regarding your options for activating the global service, as we do not support the "unlocking" of devices."

I've been a customer for years , in good standing as pointed out here, but I keep hitting a wall. Any advice on how to get Verizon to cough it up?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] syntrix:
Did you tell them the carrier you are going to use, and in what area?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sweena1:
No.. just said I was travelling overseas..

"Message Body: Hello,

I travel overseas occasionally and would like to get the SIM card

unlocked on my Touch Pro 2 in case I need to use a GSM provider.

Can you please provide the unlock codes and procedure for making

this happen?"

Should I have referenced a specific area? I may try talking to Global Services if someone can help me with the right things to say.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] drewcam888:
I simply told me I was going over seas and was going to be using a local sim card. They simply give me my code no questions asked.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sweena1:
Just got off the phone with Global Customer Service and told them I wanted to use local SIM when I went overseas. After a few minutes, they gave me the code :D

Sometimes it's easier to talk to a person and act kinda dumb then to send an email and let them give you a marketing campaign...

THANKS EVERYONE!!!!

Bump +1, just got the sprint hero coming off of the touch running the android port. This is about the only thing I'd like to change, but don't think it's possible. Maybe when we start seeing some flashable ROMs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt6gsr:
Im totally new to the whole rom flashing buisness so please excuse my noobishness...

Does apps2sd show up in apps list or does it just do it automaticly? I ask because i flashed my rom before my sd card was partitioned correctly. So when finding out how to partition using a very helpful post on these very forums the post included apps2Sd 2. I looked in app list and it wasnt there so i installed it. But when i start the app i keep getting a message directing me back to the same post saying its not set up right, follow the tutorial. Iv followed the tutorial to the letter so im wondering if the apps2sd in the rom is conflicting with the one i installed. I know something is happening because the few apps i installed shortly after flashing dissapeared when i formatted the card whilst configuring it correctly

Again, sorry for the question, i dont know much about this but i want to learrn, your help is greatly appreciated

p.s my phone is rooted if that helps
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burgess_boy:
APPS2SD is done automatically, to check you can use a file manager and check if you have this location on your phone memory:

/system/sd

The apps2sd app is not needed and doesn't work anymore to my knowledge. You may notice your phone memory depletes still with installed applications but this is normal, I believe it is just cache files for each app (i might be wrong) but the actual app will be installed in the folder mentioned either under:

/system/sd/app

or

/system/sd/app-private

This is dependant on what type of application it is (eg. paid, free etc). You can check which applications are installed in each folder if you install Android SDK and follow the guide provided or one of the tutorials dotted around the site.

not exactly what you're looking for, but this is one of the first apps I install everytime I wipe my phone, I saves all your texts into any label you want on your gmail account, which makes them viewable online, and searchable through the gmail app on the phone
[G1 Apps and Games] ThR1LL:
This is one of the most useful apps I use since I wipe my phone a lot between installs.

Ever since I installed Cyangen's 4.2.5 ROM, SMS Backup went broken :( I tried reinstalling back that was total fail, not to mention, reinstalling made it not remember which was the last SMS I backed up.

If there's a fix for this please let me know.

This means that it can be updated soon officially, but even if that update is not released to public I guess ROM cookers could take it as base for new unofficial ROM's.

Ok firstly i have a new omnia 2 and i have seen many other phone with SPB mobile 3, s2u2 and other cool stuff

I have tried the s2u2 and is very satisfied with it...

1)What i wana ask is how to go about doing the spb shell thingy..

2)the trial is 15 days right? so wat happens after 15 days?

3)Is it more lag compared to the samsung interface?

Could someone kindly guide me patiently..sorry demanding so much..

Thx in advance

Welcome to forums

As this is an HTC devices only forum you won´t get too much atention, however in off topic there is a thread regarding samsung, perhaps there you´ll find more help.

Good luck,
[General Questions and Answers] charly_mx:
Hello my friend.

Wel I actually bought an Omnia 2 in Kuala Lumpur. Well the Samsung UI its very nice and usefull, still i wanted to use another UI to it. You can download a trial of SPB shell and install it, but before installing it configure your Samnsung UI in order to disabled it, that way you will only load SPB, the perfmoance is more than outstandin you will really like it.

If you have any other question please let me know.

i jus brought a hd2 and have uploaded abt 200 songs to the MMC card and wen i try playing from the normal music player in the touch flow menu..it plays one or two songs and a error comes up saying some audioplayer.exe has encountered a problem and stops playing. if i format the memory card and play the default two songs it goes on playing... is there some fix for this..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] nik.lovely:
i had a similar problem..

i just included 10-12 new songs on my mmc card. while playing one of them from touch flo it paused after few seconds and that tab hanged.then it started showing same behavior for all songs. library would not update and going through albums would not work if i choose any song from the library it would play for 3-8 seconds and then hang again.. then i moved half songs to anohter folder but library still wont update and kept on showing missing files with ! sign.. finally i removed my half collection of songs and everything is working fine.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] santro652:
Figured out

Transfer the Music files to ur mobile from Windows media player from your PC - Basically SYNC it and all the songs will play u can upload unlimited songs
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristian82:
Hey,

i recently had the oportunity to use the so called "1clickroot" App "flashrec" on a stock T-Mobile G1 from Germany. So now i have a nandroid backup of the OTA T-Mobile CRC37 Rom.

When i rooted my G1 i used the "Goldcard" method flashing the DRAMIMG.nbh file. Now i have a G1 with german hard-keyboard layout but with the american SPL, so without the äöü and qwerty instead of qwertz.

I planed to work out a HowTo to revert from a rooted continental european G1 back to the Stock Version including the SPL.

I am now looking for a way to dump some how the SPL of a stock german G1 and flash it back to my Device.

Maybe somebody knows a way to do this or has a update.zip including the german stock SPL.

Thanks!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm confused about what you want to do. The SPL has nothing to do with the keyboard layout, it will also be everwritten when reflashing the shipping ROM.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristian82:
Hey,

i already tried to apply the backuped ROM from the stock Device using cyanogens recovery img. But after starting up the ROM and setting up german interface language the keyboardlayout was still not the german one (y and z switched and no äöü and so on). I had to replace the /system/usr/keychars/trout-keypad-v3.kcm.bin to get the german keyboard layout. Where does the wrong keyboard layout come from? The dumped img works great on the device it came from with german layout and all the way it has to be.

I thought it has something to do with the SPL, because it's the only thing that ist still changed. Tell me the mistake i have in my understanding.

The G1OrigBootloader_nocheck.zip shold be still the original one from the device shipped in US, other hardkeyboardlayout i think. correct me if i'm wrong!

Thank you for for your hints!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilnotdie:
As far as I know the DRAMIMG.nbh you used can change the SPL, Radio, & Rom. Nandroid dosent backup the Radio or SPL. I dont have any experiance with backup those, but I think the only way to do that is through ADB in fastboot, if anything. Updates, as you know, can be easily applied from the recovery boot.

_-_

If you want to do work, you can always extract it from the original german .nbh file. I not sure if its as easy as rezipping it to update.zip... thats over my head for now. Looks like I got some more research to do myself now lol.....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristian82:
That's the point! There is no german *.nbh file out there as far as i know, so i can't use it. If it where, through goldcard there would be no problem to revert back to stock for german devices.

I am just wondering how i could go back to the stock SPL and how to get the german hard keyboard layout back without changing the trout file every time.

thx
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilnotdie:
Unless you find the SPL or .nbh file somewhere, your only other option is to find another G1 with the stock SPL, and extract it.

cyanogen mentioned something about this in at

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4209412#post4209412

"I think you need to dump all of mtd6ro and extract radio/spl by hand if you need to. Nandroid doesn't touch either of them."

I havent finished reading through all the pages, but you might find out how to there. Im sure theres a thread somewhere, or you can pm cyanogen or another dev for instructions.

Hey guys,

I currently own a Sony Ericsson Xperia, and am possibly looking for a new phone. I love the look of a proper HTC phone, with Manilla ofc, because I love it, and they are good quality phones. I can't decide between a Diamond 2 (Topaz) or a Touch HD (Blackstone) and would like to know what you guys love so much about the Diamond 2.

Be it custom ROMs here, features etc. I would love to know what you like best =)

Thanks ^^
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] opensea:
The only difference is that blackstone has a little large display but the resolutions are same.

And the blackstone has no zoombar. But its no problem.

If i were you i'd choose Blackstone.

Both worth to your money.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ArtieQ:
I love Topaz because it really feels more like a phone compared to the Diamond. I also like to watch alot of movies and series on my phone so a big screen was seomthing I needed (movies looks amazing on the screen btw).

The phone is really fluid and smooth and I haven't installed a Custom ROM because the Stock is really good (under 50% RAM usage all the time except when I watch movies of course).

If you like to listen to music and watch movies, pick the HD (it got 3.5mm jack, tho you can buy a adapter to the Topaz for $5 or something).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] crispy514:
And now for a difference of opinion... :)

I find the blackstone to large for a day to day phone, and prefer the diamond 2....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Man.:
I agree. I had the choice of either but chose the Touch Diamond 2 because the HD is too big for my pockets.

Man.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
The TD2 can do VGA (640x480) videos, the HD can't. Though don't expect the quality to be as good as a proper camera doing VGA videos.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Barff1984:
i'd keep your cash and stay away from htc all together...this phone is nothing but problems and faults.....just look at the board and see how many people are complaining about things with it.

I should've got an Iphone...even though i used to be very anti apple everything.......at least they work
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] niknik76:
I love my TD2 - I think it has a perfect size. It's snappy. I use it with SPB Mobile Shell and it works great. The only bad thing with the TD2 is battery life -I get under one day with heavy use..

If not TD2 I would definately not go for Blackstone -but wait for HTC Leo...........

http://ai.rs/2009/09/htc-leo/
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ArtieQ:
Same here with the battery life, but if I let it in standby over the night (6-10 hours) I don't lose more than 10% on that time which I think is damn good.

I made a test yesterday and watched as many movies I could on the phone and I could watch a totalt of 3h 20min before it died (100% to 0%).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jeremychan:
Ditto on the battery life. I find Manila a bit too finger friendly. I've got the Topaz Essential ROM and SPB Mobile shell 3 running on it and its real smooth. There are a few quirks here and there as with any other phone but HTC makes one of the best Windows Mobile phones on the market, great for business or pleasure.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Limlin:
I prefer Diamond 2 cuz the screen fits girls very much. Compared with it, HD is a little bit larger than that. I have to take the phone everyday and the HD is just too large for that.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] linshilinshi:
D2

D2 is more elegant~
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] AceofSpades25:
I wouldn't listen to this. The Topaz is the best phone I've had yet... well worth your money!

I considered getting a blackstone, but I also found the screen too large. I would consider the Topaz to be an upgrade on the Blackstone. It has slightly more functionality, it looks better and since it's newer it seems to be better supported. (e.g. It will be getting the windows Mobile upgrade and a new Manila soon - Not sure if the blackstone will be getting these Of course you could always have these with a cooked ROM)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] x10000:
I just got mine for 2 weeks and so far I got no complaint.

When I try out Blackstone and Topaz I feel the touchscreen work slightly faster (this might due to firmware) and blackstone with silicone case cannot fit my pocket.

Also smaller screen with the same resolution just give you a crispy video playback and to my surprise the built-in media player actually work better than core player. (at least for h.264+aac encode).

PS. Go to hell with iphone I you love sending messages forgot about iphone. It would make your life harder. I usually a pro apple (owning power mac g3-5 + mac pro) but iphone is just a fad...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] lexx2009:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] loriolus:
Can any of you D2 owners compare the external speaker to lets say a BB 8900? I know it can't match TP2's speakers but how much worse is it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Limlin:
The external speaker is located aft under the camera lens and lighting. Sound can be tuned to maximum loud and clear sound bearable. But there are many complaints as they coulcn't hear any audio (no ring, no alerts, no music) coming through the external speaker on BB 8900.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] tamanaco:
Does anyone know if the "rumored" 3G AT&T version of the D2 that's "supposed" to be released in October has 3.5 mm headphone jack? The leaked pictures do not show the top or lower edges of the phone. Some of the recent releases of the TP2 in the US and the new My Touch 2 have a 3.5mm jacks. I refuse to carry a dongle and the sound quality of Bluetooth headphones are not match for my UE IEMs. This is one feature that makes the iPhone very convenient.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] efrainlopra:

I owned a NOVA (ELF) for 2 years, which was not a bad device at all, but the new Diamond 2 is much better. The in-hand feeling is wonderful. I did not have problems until now and I am also happy with the battery duration.
