"yes thats how it should look when your imei is barred"

Tnx for your answer. No, I don't want to change IMEI nr. Why should I do that now when I know that is "only" barred? That is my phone and I will wait for network to fix this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HiddenLight:
I think a 3rd party software had been installed in your phone. To give you an idea, I'm using this great FREE software so I can control my phone just in case if it's stolen:

http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mofolino:
HELP!!!

This morning (after 3 days) my phone has been "unbarred", yeaaaa!

But...

I had my SIM card X (may old private number) in phone when it's start working and I replaced with SIM card Y (my job number) which I was using with my phone over a year before it was stolen/barred. And guess what? Now when I put in SIM card Y (job) it doesn't work!!! Of course I tried card Y in another telephone and it is working!

My Y (job)network says that the still can see that my phone is barred and they hope that it will be unbarred for their network with delay because it was not "home network" for telephone . Phone was not locked to none of networks.

Any clue on this?

Hi all,

I am struggling to find an answer on this one, I can't connect to the wlan @ work, it's Cisco WPA2 PSK, is it a driver issue or does the Elf hardware simply not support that connection? Onyx Jr. 4.8 on HTC Touch Elf.

Thanks in advance :)
[Touch GSM General] ExB:
WPA2 PSK works on my Elf (Onyx 6.1 and 6.5 roms, both work), altough it is not on Cisco access points ;) But it should be the same. Unless wlan at your work is MAC filtered..
[Touch GSM General] Mass13:
At home it works also with WPA2 PSK, the AP isn't MAC filtered, I am the IT administrator at work, changing to WPA isn't an option, I noticed that on different locations over networks of many clients (we only install Cisco) WPA2 doesn't work on my Touch, on a friend's HTC it works, has it something to do with my radio version?

[Touch HD General] max_carpenter:
Good Morning,

I have been flashing a few different roms to find one that suit my needs however I have come to a problem - When I run the RUU it finds the device starts to bootloader on the device then very very quickly the device brings up a grey screen which says something like no image file (happens so quickly hard to read) then goes back to the tri-colour boot loader.

The PC then keeps trying for another minute or two and then says its lost connection.

I have tried using the Manual Boot Loader on the phone and putting the image straight to the msd card and running boot loader by vol - + Power but still nothing works

The last image I tried was the LIA (Can't remember which version - its at home)

I am currently running HardSPL 1.56.OliNex

On the Bootloader it also says this if it helps:

BLAC100 32M

MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6

Also tried a Hardreset and downloaded official rom from the HTC website :-(

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks.

Max
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Ensure that you put the .nbh and ruu file into one folder with no other files. Make sure you have named the file correctly, i.e. blacimg.nbh
[Touch HD General] max_carpenter:
Thanks for your advice. Got the Offical HTC Rom flashing back now.

Strange why the RUU didn't work though been working fine.

Just another quick note while this HTC Rom is flashing it says:

Radio_v2

Bootloader

Splash1

os

Does this mean I need to put Hardspl back on to do more roms as it mentions bootloader?

Regards,

Max
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
If you SPL states SPL: 1.56.Olinex then you do not need to re-use HSPL unless you are flashing a rom based on pre 1.54
[Touch HD General] max_carpenter:
Ok it didn't change the SPL so thats still ok -

However I can no longer flash new images from my computer using the RUU?

When ever I try it connects enters bootloader but then says No Flash Image. I have checked on the computer I have the RUU tool and the blacimg.nbh but nada.

I have tried roms that were working before. If I copy the blacimg.nbh to the memory card and use vol down + Power it works fine.

anyone seen that before?
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
So you can still flash from sd card, but not using usb cable and pc method. I am assuming you still get 'usb' at bottom of bootloader before you try flashing. I was goingf to suggest maybe your .nbh file was corrupt but you stated you tried using ones which where previously successful so it can't be that. Are both the nbh and ruu files in their own folder with no other files? Try using ruu I've attached. Do you get any error codes?
[Touch HD General] max_carpenter:
I will give that RUU a go later once I have played with this rom for a bit.

Yes the RUU and the .nbh are in a folder on my local drive on their own - No antivirus installed

The same .nbh file works via the flash memory,

However the USB text doesn't appear on the boot loader anymore. When I run the RUU from the PC with USB attached with ActiveSync it auto loads the bootloader perfectly but from there no usb and it flashes to the grey screen abotu no flash image then back to the bootloader with nothing at the bottom.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
ok, reason flash fails is more than likely due to 'usb' not appearing at bottom of bootloader.

Various reasons for this:

First check that 'allow usb connections' is enabled in activesync connection settings and then see if 'usb' appears

Secondly, update usb drivers
[Touch HD General] max_carpenter:
Ok thanks I will note that although I think I have found a rom I am very happy with. So far seems to do everything I want and very stable so will see how it goes.

Just encase anyone is intrested its: Xnor 6.5 V1.4

I have yet to go through everything but so far so good....
[Touch HD General] markthompson32:
same problem

hi I have same problem as OP.. did this get resolved??
[Touch HD General] DontHate:
dunno if this will help you but basically to flash it via usb the pc detects the phone as something else (not active sync or mobile center or whatever its called now).

so you need to have the drivers installed for that.

if you cancelled the driver screen or something the first time, then it will still be on your system as a nonfunctioning device the easiest thing to do is uninstall it from device manager.

then install the drivers as mentioned above and plug the phone in again in bootloader mode and wait...

it will take longer than usual because its the first time the driver is being loaded. then i think 'usb' will appear...

i had a problem like that after i reformatted my pc but this was ages ago

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] tomfreay:
Hi, while trying to fix a bug with CDMA heros in my app I noticed the following

When you turn the screen on (and so the light sensor activates for auto backlight) logcat has the following references:

pid = 71 tag=Sensor Message=using /dev/input/event5 (name=lightsensor-level)

pid=71 tag=Sensor Message=data__data_open: light fd = 120 (fd value changes)

Then when you turn the screen back off again

pid = 71 tag=Sensor Message=using /dev/input/event5 (name=lightsensor-level)

Presumably if we could find out whats creating these, and call the methods ourselves we could get the light meter reading independent of auto-backlight, ie when the screen is off?

This is really beyond my knowledge, anyone got any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] unknown_world:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xardus:
hi dear! i think title its enough to understand my idea

i think its a very big error by htc to dont let contacts and calendar syncronize

i have some contacts who are paired with facebook (i dont know if twitter work because i dont use it) and it download things like birth date!! or some event u want to report in ur calendar from facebook

i have a really bad memory for birthdays and it will help me sooooo much and i dont think to be alone ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xardus:
uhm....what should i intend? there is no way? :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xZdenis:
Yeah, I would much apreciate that as well.. It would be very helpfull..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Zunzun:
It already does. I got a friend whose birthday is on 24 dec, and it appears in my calendar. It is the only one however, so i guess it only shows the birthdays in the next few days.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xZdenis:
Well, actualy it does only when you sync your phone with outlook. But i'd love some app, which can do dat evev without outlook sync (because i'm no using it :) ).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xardus:
i have a friend whose birthday is 28 dec and dosnt show...im not using outlook too and i dont want it only to syncronize contacts...i prefere backup theme and store
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fretjes:
Xardus,

Most probably you already know this but in Outlook there is a field in contacts under the tab "details" here you can fill in the birth date and year. Now in contacts under Wm 2003 (SE) the PDA and Outlook automaticly put a alarm on that specific day and give the age itself. Now in Outlook you will not see this shortley before the date appearing. I have not changed my Outlook and after sync everything including the birth date appeared BUT not in the calender. Now this was also in WM 2003 so I think that a few days (don't know how many)it will pick it up and will appear as a reminder.

fred
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xardus:
yea i know but fist i dont use outlook so i will never buy just to syncro calendar ^^

i know that we can set it manually in contact tabs,i use it at work sometime

i think its quiet usefull take birthdate directly from FB contact and put on calendar...or maybe an app on facebook to store ur birth and then syncro with phone calendar (but it should be a very very big work)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] toyjeep:
search for fonebook an app for Facebook and Outlook
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xardus:
its an app for ppc or pc?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Keethos:
Any birthdays you add to your contacts will be added to you calendar when you sync with your PC, also if you link a contact with Facebook, that will also add it to your calendar (sometimes you'll even end up with 2 birthdays on a date for the same person).

On a side note....anyone know how to get the calendar to show the age of the person like you would on the Touch HD, as your putting in a complete date of birth, the touch HD would show the persons birthday then their age in brackets after it....doesn't seem to do that anymore...anyone know if there is a way to achieve this?

thanks for help :)
[HD2 General] suicidal.banana:
Over here you can find a little tweaking application, download and install it (also note that you need .NetCF 3.5, wich can be downloaded from same topic)

Then run it, open menu, and about halfway in the menu you can find 'manilla language'

Idk if it will allow u to use russian though, for me it doesnt show that option, does show Czech, maybe thats russian, or maybe you get a different/bigger list of languages.

Even if it in the end doesnt give you russian, its still a nice app to have on your hd2

Let us know if that suffices, or that you will actually need a russian ROM? (in that case i cant be of any assistance, i dont know anything about roms)

I was a long time WinMo user. Had the Glofiish X500+ on a custom rom. Went to a bbq this past July and accidently crushed my phone. An hour later I roll up to Cartoys to get a cheap replacement since no other T-mobile stores around would be open at 8pm. They had no HTC phones aside from the G1. So I pick it up thinking that if I didn't like Android, I'd just flash a WinMo rom on it. And then 2 days later I read about Cyan, and root/flash my G1 to it. And been loving it since.

I have had mine since December 11th, 2009 (a whole week now, yay!)

I was thinking of going with one of the newer android devices from T-Mo, but I hate not having a physical keyboard, so I decided to sacrifice some of the features of the newer ones, and go with the G1.

I got it used for $100 from Craigslist (gotta love that site). I popped my SIM in it before handign money over and verified calls, 3G, WiFi (I have a WiFi Router in my work truck), the touch screen, etc, etc. It worked great, so I handed the money over.

I get the phone home a few hours later, and the FIRST thing I do (before even checking e-mail, or using the bathroom (as I think everyone does as they get home from work), I opned up google and search "G1 hacks", and came across XDA.

I read for a few hours(read: minutes), and decided that I am going to root my phone. I tried one of the JF builds (1.4/1.5 or something, i totally forget...tried it the once, and moved onto Cyanogen...never looked back)...

I first installed CM4.2.8, then 4.2.8.1 came out, and today 4.2.9.1 came out...I have to say that I love the frequent updates, and the fact that OTA updates are available for CM.

All I have to say to everyone is keep up the great work. I am one satisfied user ;)
