Hi all, those of you who are paying for the SIM unlock of your Touch2, I was just wondering - why don't you pay to jockey? Who has given us HSPL for free and does sim unlock for a fees. Just pm him - he is a master.

Hi guys, I don't know if this is a basic question but I have to ask it since I haven't find an answer yet...

Can I modify the HSDPA/UMTS band via ROM or SPL update?

I bougth a HTC T-mobile myTouch (1700/2100 MHz bands, UMTS/HSDPA) but later I realized that here in CHILE my provider uses the 850/1900 band for 3g :(.

So, can I do somethig to make it work here or is it a matter of hardware?:confused::confused::confused:

Thanks
[Networking] mancsoulja:
No you cant change ur radio bands with software, its a hardware issue and im afraid your stuck with what you got, even flashing a new radio wont change things . . . sorry :(
[Networking] Rudegar:
it's too different versions of the qualcomm cpu's which makes the band difference

it's hardcoded inside the cpu
[Networking] coolVariable:
You should have bought the Canadian/Rogers version of the phone.

Fvcking HTC builds 3 versions of the phone (mytouch, rest of world, Canada) and people like you and me get fvcked. We have to pay an extra $150 to get the canadian version.

Let it be a lesson: do NOT buy HTC! Acer, Dell, Apple ... they all build phones that work everywhere. NOT HTC.
[Networking] inquisitor:
Actually the CPU (Qualcomm MSM7201a) is capable of supporting five different UMTS frequency bands, however only three at once. Those bands again are indeed preset by the built-in RF chips, so there is no chance of changing frequencies.

Here's the datasheet of the MSM7200 (identical to the MSM7201a in terms of RF support) with an overview of possible RF chip configurations at the bottom of page 3: http://www.ent.eet-china.com/PDF/2007FEB/DTCOL_2007FEB15_AVDE_RFR_AN_01.pdf
[Networking] stepw:
Whether a specific band is supported or not in a particular RF topology also depends on the type of RF amplifiers coupled with the baseband IC. Traditionally HTC has been using universal amplifiers for 2G/2.5G hence all recent phones support GSM/GPRS/EDGE on any frequencies. Due to Qualcomm vs. Broadcomm patent lawsuits, they had to stop using universal amplifiers for 3G around 2006, hence most modern phones only support WCDMA/UMTS frequencies that they have individual amplifiers for.

I think it's not HTC specific, any vendors using Qualcomm MSM basebands are doing this as well. So the bottomline is - in most cases it's a hardware issue. In some rare cases (when universal or multi-frequency WCDMA amplifier is installed) frequencies are disabled in software. I can't recall any HTC device that would have this kind of software only limitation.

Wow Very informational posts

Thanks Guys!!!

Hey I'm an old (ancient pre-Intel <BG>) micro hacker

but fairly new to phones. I'm currently very happy with

my cooked AT&T Pure/TopAz with the Tess Leo 1 Rom

I've had most every model of HP IpAQ upto the 4700s

So the PPC side is pretty comfortable for me.

I'm an old programmer with EE background

But really ready to try and get my teeth into the radio side

of phones just trying to understand enough to make some

resonable qualitative and quantitative benchmarks on some these radios

Maybe more to the point is understand if so and so's great looking nice

new task bar should and is properly displaying "3G" or "H" or ?)

But its been hard sorting the Euro vs US and GSM vs CMRS

Phone info.

Can anyone suggest a good "newbie guide" ? or any source of info

(I kinda hate the term "for dummies" but.... )

to the radio end, signal strength, band, networks etc ?

Sorry if this has been asked a million times or its only "two posts" away

but the amount of info here is great! but the s/n is NOT so great <BG>

Thanks Alot

Hey is there a spell checker in this xda forum?

my apologies

I love my phone
[Networking] Rudegar:
if you are on a pc most internet browsers these days got their own spellchecker
[Networking] Kenn Lynch:
Spell check thanks

You know its amazing what some people consider "most" Web Browsers

I was thinking "largest" web browser (Internet Explorer 8.XX on XP)

Spell checking is not natively included, so all my checking has been with

local docs or remotely using the web pages own checker for web based mail and forums.

So I started thinking no wonder this guys name starts with "Rude"

But I looked around and there is a free plug-in for IE called ieSpell.

I seldom bother with the other browsers so I can't say if

spell checking is included right "out of the box" in them either.

but I just installed ieSpell here and it hyphenated "plug-in" nice and easy

Thanks

when you are right you are right

Guess you can teach and old dog <BG>

Hi guys,

I just recently switched from Dutty's 3.9 to Topix 3.0.2, a WM 6.1 ROM with Sense 2.1, and it is a great ROM, fantastic combination of speed and stability. I like the large start menu in Dutty's ROM, the Topix one hast the Manila Programs Tab, is there any way to activate the large start menu? I tried activating it in the Touch Flo settings, but nothing happened. I also tried looking through threads on the board, but couldn't find anything. Thanks for any help.

You could sell the MyTouch and buy a Rogers Magic or Dream. They use the same 3G frequency as your networks in Chile. 850/1900

I'm from Chile too, I have the same "problem" But actually I don't care to much because next year 2 Nextel and VTR will offer mobile services... And they are gonna be based on the 1700/2100 bands...

[Windows Mobile Themes] LBTaylor1984:
hey peeps,

i've had my HD2 now for a week and well i'm getting itchy to customise some of the ui. well i've got some ideas for a full on theme, and the taskbar at the moment.

however i've googled myself close to death trying to find how to edit the files.

first i can't see how to assemble and disassemble CAB files, and probably DLL's aswell.

and where do i find the originals on the phone itself? Taskbar Icons?

I've downloaded the /Windows directory and found Lockscene buttons, and icons for different bits, but as i said above i have no idea how to assemble an CAB out of my edited files, and not just do an overwrite.

Im sure some people are reading this as a user who hasn't a clue as to what there doing but tbh this is the first WinMo phone i've had in probably 5 years, so i've forgotten most of what i know, but i'd really like to have a crack at making my own experience/community release.

One problem i've had is Total Commander can't see my phone, do i need to have total commander on both the PC and the Phone? or should it just see the phone? as i said i'm a little lost.

So if you can help me, i'll really appreciate the help

Many Thanks,

Luke.
[Windows Mobile Themes] LBTaylor1984:
come on guys, is this the secret society of something. either no one knows or you just cant be bothered. surely supporting a fellow modder isn't a hardship.?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Come on, I was able to figure everything out myself as well (or search!).

For editing CABs, the best way is to use WinCe CAB Manager. For DLLs and EXEs, you can use ResHack, Resource Tuner or the like... just search.

Then, take any theme you like, extract the files with a CAB and modify the grapics... Yes, you can ;)!
[Windows Mobile Themes] LBTaylor1984:
thanks dude,

i've tried searching, but if you don't know what to search for your screwed.

now i've got a few apps listed i can look em up. Massive Thanks to you

Luke.
[Windows Mobile Themes] LBTaylor1984:
ok well i just had a look at Brians V6 Taskbar Cab.

tbh I can see what needs to be done but it's not very simple. I've been iPhone themeing the past few years and it was no where near as confusing as this. tbh i think i'll leave it alone on second thought.

I thought it would be a case of redesign the images and bundling them into a cab for deployment, not registry entries, and random coding which to me meant nothing.

I think i'll stick to my overwriting files upposed to CABS. and hope some things i want turn up.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Well, you don't need to change any registry keys. Just put your graphics in a CAB and you're done :p.
[Windows Mobile Themes] LBTaylor1984:
ok maybe i'll have another go i guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kzar3000:
is there anyway or any application that is out there that will let you browse the web and talk om the phone at the same time?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] japper88:
If you have GSM then you can do that without any special app. If you have CDMA then you can't do that unless you're connected via wifi.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
Yup wifi and phone works really well LOL...:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bokechukwu1:
you can do this with t mobile???? I know att just came out with this on their network i dont believe this is possible with t mobile
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DarienA:
Just came out? AFAIK 3G on AT&T's network thats one of the benefits. I believe all 3G smartphones that had web browsing had voice capabilities at the same time... that's part of what 3G on a GSM network creates.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
You can talk and surf in AT&T 3G network for sure. I am not sure if it works on T-mobile though. I would think it should, as it looks like it depends on technology and not the network itself!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] jlavoie:
i just tested this the other day after watching a commercial asking if my phone and carrier could do it. answer....yes! i called my wife, put the phone on speaker phone, opened opera and browsed, opened google maps and checked out some street view and did a little binging. worked great all the while talking on speaker phone in the background.

edit: i was on a 3g connection.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
So I guess AT&T is full of crap! Hmmm whats new!!!LOL

Yea you can do this only with 3G connection. Cuz you are using E to talk I would assume! And 3G for data...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] joeyc1123:
this is only possible using a GSM network(at&t, t-mobile...etc) without using wifi.

3g makes no difference in this situation.Verizon & Sprint run on CDMA networks and is not possible to "talk & surf" at the same time
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DarienA:
Well the commercial is a response commercial to Verizon's ads... so at least in this case they aren't full of crap. Verizon's 3G network is based on EV-DO Rev A. You get the speeds of a 3G GSM connection but you don't get the simul voice/data functionality.

AT&T does not support browse/talk on its Edge network. So if your phone steps down to an Edge connection you lose that ability. AFAIK Edge CAN support the functionality its just that AT&T doesn't support it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] GSLEON3:
I will check on verizon when I get a chance, but if you look in the Kaiser forum, I showed everyone there in a thread how to get this functionality b'c the carriers (US) usually strip it out to preserve bandwidth. It has to do with the RIL settings in your provisioning xml. beeen a few years, but it is there if you want to dig. Look in kaiser rom development. Also, it has to be cooked in. the provisioning registry changes will always revert back to OEM settings if not cooked in.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bigboi3021:
It is not a matter of carrier but a matter of technology. Edge and 3G are akin to narrowband and broadband for landlines. Just like you can't talk and surf the web and talk on the phone on dialup but can on DSL. It's simply a matter of bandwidth.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] CeLlgUy:
To explain this in a more simple matter, 3g is essentially a CDMA connection. Being that CDMA carriers use said transmission for voice, they cannot use data and voice simultaneously. However, with t-mobile and at&t, voice is transmitted over the GSM radio and a 2nd radio is present which carries the CDMA 3g technology. If said GSM device looses that 3g service and falls back to edge or gprs, the simultaneous voice and data becomes inoperable. The key part to this is that a 2nd radio transmission takes place to allow the simultaneous transmission of both services. I have often wondered, however, why other carriers like sprint and Verizon don't incorporate a 2nd radio in their devices to simultaneously connect two CDMA transmissions similar to how a TIVO/DVR box works with cable/satellite services to allow the viewing of one channel while recording another. This functionality would allow them to compete with the GSM carriers.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] djsiva:
cdma gsm

I know that when I used to work for ATTWS (long time ago), they were freaking out about the new carriers rolling in with CDMA (some with hybrid AMPS and D-AMPS 850 mhz spectrum) because, in theory CDMA should wax TDMA's call load significantly. TDMA, at that time could only hold 3 calls per channel. So about (here comes a geeky number) :) every 6.67 ms the calls on the channel would switch functions. Only one could TX, one could RX, and the other was Idle.... this was all transparent to the caller of course..:) CDMA rolls around with the theory that becasue it's data piggy backed on the channel, it would increase their call handling ability 10 fold. Unfortunately theory didn't work out to real work practicality b/c the new PCS CDMA carriers really had about the same call capacity as everyone else.

Now, I've always touted VZW speeds here in my market bc TMO didn't even have 3g here till like 6 months to a year ago.. .and AT&T's 3G was laugable here in Jacksonville...might as well have kept the E or G icons on the phone for as slow as things ran.... HSDPA and UMTS could put a cramp on VZWs claim to speed...as long as they can get it consistent nationwide... I'd be tempted to leave for the right data speeds.....but for now, I'm in love with my overpriced VZW plan because of the coverage, quality, and speed..... who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Sorry for the long post, but it takes a bit to explain it.. (even though most of you know it.)

Thanks,

Nate

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bsg411:
Yes my phone shows H when I'm trying to surf and talk. I think since I have a cooked rom, it may have altered my stock internet configuration and proxy settings or something and now it doesnt work.....idunno......thats my guess. Hoping one of you guys have the answer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mjridore:
Thats definitely the problem make sure proxy is off and your connections setting are going to the MEdiaNet server and that should fix it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
From the look in your sig you are using energy rom which has the rhod dialer in it. You need the ATT dialer to surf and talk at the same time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bsg411:
Thank you mjridore for the solution.....now I need to know how to execute it ....lol. still kinda a noob. do you know I could go about turning off the proxy and get my connections going to the media net server ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bsg411:
Thank you for your reply zelendel.....mjridore replied and said I need to turn my proxy off and make sure im using att media net server...do you also have that same configuration? And as for the att dialer skin.....the dusk theme one you have looks nice....that dialer skin will accomplish the surf and talk? If so...I'll download from your signature.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
No the skin is just that a theme for the dialer which is cooked into some roms. Most dialers were set to disconnect data when on the phone. It is said that the leo 2g dialer works in place of the ATT dialer. HERE is a link for it. I have not tried it my self sens I use the ATT dialer in my rom
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] jmmmmm:
The WM version of GM has "street view"??!!! How did you access that?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] bsg411:
I tried the leo dialer and it didnt allow me to surf and talk....not to mention the leo dialer somehow disabled proximity sensor. But I beleive that the source of the problem lies with the proxy and media server as mjridore eluded to.

I have 3 suggestions

1. Talk to dwang himself and mention it to him. Perhaps he does not even know about this and solution may be trivial. I would have no clue that this is the case since I don't use mms at all.

2. There is an upgraded MMS app in the development section, that may have an option of bigger size messages.

3. Try using on of those alternative messaging apps from the market (like hancent sms). I don't know if that has an option that you're looking for but worth a try.

From what I could see the phone is (possibly) a similar phone to other HTC phones. I have tried to install Android on the phone using information from this site which didn't work and after a bit of googling I came to the xda-developers site.

What I am hoping to find out is either

a) what htc phone the hkc one I have is the same as, so that I can use that android install

or

b) can anyone direct me to a g901/bono specific android install that I can use.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
