Man I hope theres a way. if so i know he'll sell it to me CHEAP :) anyone know what to try? or point me in the right direction? im looking at SIM unlockers? am i warm or cold?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zelendel:
If I am not mistaken the Sprint version of the touch pro does not have a sim card,( I may be wrong ) and if that is the case then no it cant be used on a sim card based network.

Was not gonna say it but.....Not the right section. This really doesnt have anything to do with rom development.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mv1luv:
actually it does have a sim card i seen underne

ath the battery compartment already and i see a white sim looking card in there. ill see the phone in a few hours ill take a pic n post it up. also sorry will a moderator please move this to the correct forum.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kaoss_11:
yes my sprint tp2 has a sim card. pay to get the sim unlocked and there you go.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zelendel:
I was aware that the Touch pro 2 had a sim slot, he has a Fuze\Touch pro

Ok I was wondering if I remembered right. Here is a convo on this same subject found with a simple search

http://eliteeternity.com/elite-tuto...-sprint-touch-pro-to-mighty-rom/#comment-1741	hi admin

i just got sprint touch pro. i use att carrier, is it possible to unlock touch pro to be used with att.

sprint is cdma, while att is gsm. can it be swapped? that is use sim card of att on sprint’s htc touch pro?

No. That is IMPOSSIBLE. There are GSM, and CDMA Phones. There are also hybrids with both GSM and CDMA. (the touch pro 2 will be hybrid)

The Sprint Touch Pro does NOT have a SIM card slot, and the GSM version does. Sorry Mike, but you’re screwed.

This is the very reason CDMA folks want an iPhone or something similar so bad. Because you can jailbreak an ipod (see fluffyphones.com if you want to) and use with AT&T or T-Mobile. But not Verizon or Sprint.

Sim Card Slot In CDMA Phones

The Sim Slot on your Sprint phone is for Contact use. The Sim Slots in CDMA Phones are for storing Contact Information Only.

Dammit i was hoping it would work, o well ill just have to wait and shell out the cash for the tilt 2. thankyou everyone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I think the OP is saying that his friend found a TP2 (NOT a Touch Pro), and wants to unlock it. This thread here (started by Olipro) shows how to a security unlock and flash a patched radio onto the Sprint TP2 so it works on AT&T. Pocketnow also wrote an article and created a video concerning just that. However, the OP should not use these techniques if it is indeed a Touch Pro his friend found. Otherwise, it should work absolutely fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mv1luv:
YAY i think were getting warm. My Friend NOT ME has a Sprint Touch Pro 2, that is reported stolen or lost. He didnt know that it was in that condition as his intentions were to use the phone. well he cant activate it, so he's offering it to me. but i have AT&T and im wondering if theres a way i can use it? even though its reported lost or stolen through sprint? THankyou :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RojasTKD:
Am I the only one that think the phone shoud be taken to Sprint so they can return it the it rightful owner?

Come on, it just the right thing to do.

Maybe there's some BS on having contacted Sprint in the first place.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mv1luv:
NAY.. cmon man if given the oppurtunity would u pass up a phone like this if it was offered to you for less than 100$$? i already have a HTC FUZE and my Girlfriend Has the Htc Tilt 2 so really its not a need its more of a want. And what he chooses to do with the phone is none of my business.. he's simply offering it to me becuase he bought it off a barber didnt ask no questions.. tried to reactivate it and thats when he ran into all the problems.. so im really his last resort to make sumthin back from his money.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jtoyz2:
i sim unlock verizon storm and used it on tmobile so the tp2 should work as well...sprint selling it as a worldwide phone so thats why theres a sim slot so if u travel outside the country u can buy a pay as u go sim card...s0 just unlock and use it on any gsm network
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] wpbear:
How would you feel if you lost your phone and come on this forum and see someone getting around the system to activate your lost...most likely stolen phone. (which it is at this point is stolen since you are planning on keeping it)

The technical idea of changing the radio is a cool idea for developers but if warez is banned on this forum then so should this thread on "how to steal a sprint phone and use on ATT".
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Vendetta-NY:
This is a scumbag thread right here.

"How to re-up a stolen phone." WTF?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] quid246:
I agree... there is a large element of douchbagery associated with using someone's lost phone.

"Finders keepers" is fine when you are 10 years old.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Vendetta-NY:
...and I'm sure their original owners would love to have them back.

...which only makes you more of a handjob.

Sorry. I know I'm not Mr. XDA or anything, but this place is where a bunch of cool people figure out complicated things and share their knowledge with others purely out of goodwill, and you come here asking them to advise you on how to make a stolen phone work. You're a class act, pal.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mv1luv:
wow keep bashing man if u must know my phones are through AT@T so do me a favor and im asking nicely.. if you have nothing nice to say dont say nothing at all. i was simply asking for some technical support to see if it would be worth my time n money to invest in this phone. otherwise.. act your age not your shoe size k.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Vendetta-NY:
You're asking nicely, and I'm saying "no," nicely. What you're looking for will enable the larger stolen phone market, but you don't see that, do you? No, no, you just "want" to have a better phone at the cost of the poor sucker that it was stolen from.

So, yeah..... no.

The Devphone 3 AKA NEXUS should be no more then 400.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
The main things to hope for on this:

1) No huge wasted space for OTA updates and/or configurable partition boundaries.

2) No root lockout. That means that an adb shell should allow 'su'.

3) That there are no closed source drivers. I hope that google learned their lesson from dealing with HTC over the dream and magic phones. HTC is a sonofab**ch that can't be trusted.

Hey guys, I need some help. I have the Touch pro 2.

And for some reason, my pictures and music are being copied to my phone. Taking up alot of it's memory. I don't think (or atleast I never noticed) this happening before. But is there any way I can stop it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] xsirhc6x:
give me ideas, i wanna give back and apparently no one likes my taste(see # of downloads for Blellow 1.0 lol)

but yea i had fun makin that theme, and would like to now if theres a color scheme people want or just a certain colour or anything really!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
I'm just wondering what's so good about the Modaco ROMS... From what I was reading it's the best thing to ever happen to Hero but I've flashed it and it actually seems slower/laggier than my stock ROM... should this be?

My stock ROM was 2.73.XX but I can't remember the exact build number. I'm using Modaco 3.0... are there any other ROMS out there I should consider trying? I'm looking for the fastest and most responsive ROM out there. I do A LOT of multitasking so I'd like to have a ROM that can keep up. :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CGeyser:
If you did a complete data wipe/factory reset, while having the Modaco Rom, the Hero should be a lot more responsive and faster.

I like Modaco rather than stock rom because it removes some useless apps and allows for more customization. Btw, another alterative to the stock and Modaco is the HiK@Ri and the Clean ION Roms.

There are several different Roms, the differences is the types of apps removed/installed and the Android firmware.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
i like modacos roms, because they work reliable and good. with pauls roms i am sure that he has tested them well, and i can use them as basis for my own modifications, or just can push them to my friends' heros without having them complain that something doesn't work. also in case you need support you can ask paul, he is really a nice guy.

there are some other roms, but imho mcr3.0 is by far the most evolved rom, esp. for everyday use. check the development section here for other roms, including the brandnew android 2.1 roms
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
Well here's the thing. I didn't wipe/factory reset before I Flashed the ROM. After flashing it went into a reboot loop, it would keep rebooting and when it got to the last boot animation, reboot again... I then did a wipe using the recovery boots wipe option and then it booted fine... Maybe I should do another wipe and flash again? It sucks though because now I've customized it back to the way I like it... I hate having to do that all over again. I guess I need to do the A2SD thing so I don't have to redownload my apps again... that was annoying when I had to do it after flashing Modaco's.... I couldn't even remember all that I had installed lol.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] itpromike:
Anyone think reflashing might make it better?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] streetdaddy:
I've been using MCR since about 2.2 so I can't speak for 3.0, but when I first flashed with 2.2 I didn't factory reset or format my SD card and it was a complete fail... apps force closing constantly, unable to recieve SMS, and other assorted weirdness.

So I factory resetted, reflashed and from that point MCR has run very smoothly and each update has gone OK (except for one where i had to format and repartition my SD card for A2SD, but didn't lose any settings).

So my advice would be that if you go to the effort of starting with a clean slate you'll get a much better user experience, which is what all us existing MCR users have...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CGeyser:
streetdaddy is spot on. Do a clean wipe and then a rom flash.

I'm using MoDaCo 2.9. For my Hero, 3.0 ate up a lot of my phone's internal memory and kept saying I was running out of memory. The differences are minuscule and the speed improvement is about the same.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Tone-Fu:
I started using Pauls ROM as soon as I got my Hero (which was a few days after release) because the stock ROM was toilet, and I've not looked back. The ROM itself is excellent and the support is first-class.

Make sure to wipe before installing. Once you've got it up and running you shouldn't have to wipe it when you upgrade next time.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N0J:
did you install recovery 1.2.3 or 1.5 after rooting and before flashing the rom?

recovery is what allows you to install updates, backup, restore, etc.

I would use v1.5.2 found in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=561124

There were some reports of problems with 1.5.1.

After you flash it (read the instructions in the above thread) you will see a black screen with green text. Congratulations, you are in "recovery" mode! Navigate and select through the menu with the trackball.

One of the first things you should do is make a backup using Nandroid. After that you can flash your custom ROM by selecting the .zip while in recovery mode.

Actually, all of this is in this thread (which is now stickied):

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebochenezzar:
So, I have a broken reader inside my phone for the sdcard, due to an unfortunate drop. I first had to turn off Apps to SD and then was able to use my apps again (of course re downloaded),

next I went to see if I could install a normal update.zip of a rom using fastboot,

I looked into the 'fastboot update <update.zip>', realized that i would still need .img (the ones nandroid makes) not the normal update.zip used in recovery to flash...

So I was thinking if I used a friends G1 to create a nandroid of his device, could I technically use fastboot to write those files from my PC? (i would test but it would be a bit of a chore for us to get together, any info would be helpful)

or is my phone stuck because there is no way to flash without the sdcard?

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Neejay:
I was thinking about using the RAv1.6.2 ROM, but I see he has "removed debugging" via "Recompiled kernel RAv1.6.2".

Does this really affect ADB? The only research I came across was info about what debugging mode was, but I don't see why it would get taken out of a ROM if it affects ADB usage. I'm assuming I'm missing something :(

Sorry if this belongs in General, but I wasn't getting any hits over there and I was trying to do this flash ASAP.

Me again. You need Max Manila 2.5 theme. This gives you the notification Icons and you can also choose to display the slider icons or to hide them.

The latest version is 2.6 and is available in post#4 ;). You will need to do some reading as to how to set the various options.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jimbo831:
Sorry for creating a new thread, but I have searched and worked at this problem for hours and can't find a solution. I have a myTouch 3G running the latest Cyanogen ROM, the latest Amon_RA recover image, and the Engineering 2010 SPL. This phone is a replacement and I had done a Nandroid backup on the old one before sending it back. Oddly enough, it would not let me do a BART backup, saying there was an unknown error and I should do it from a computer. Since there is not Apps to SD, I figured Nandroid would be good.

Now my problem is restoring it, if I try to restore it from the recovery image, it says "Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb!" Does anyone know why the recover will not run a BART backup or Nandroid restore without me doing it via the computer? Both of these functions work fine on my G1. At first, I thought it might be the SPL as I read of problems with the stock SPL not writing in fastboot mode. I actually tried to do the Nandroid restore via fastboot, but kept getting an error there. When researching that error, I saw that it was a result of the "Perfect SPL" so I changed it to the engineering SPL. I had a thought that this might be why the recovery would not complete these functions, but the problem persists.

I decided to follow the directions and loaded up my adb shell to try it that way. When following the directions on Cyanogen's website, I was unable to even mount my SD card, getting this error: "Mounting on sdcard failed: Device or resource busy". I then tried the 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' function, but got this message: "nandroid-mobile.sh not found". It seems nothing works as it should, and I can't figure out why, especially since they all work fine on my G1. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: I just tried doing it via fastboot again following these directions: http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/NANDROID_Fastboot

It worked well, until I got to the UserData section when it said "FAILED <remote: data length is too large>"
