I've paid this company ....

[unlockdata dot co dot uk for a code and have used it, however that does appear to be the issue from what I can see.

They sent me a code, when placing my O2 sim in the phone asked for it, I entered it and all appeared well. However it must not be the case deep down in the phone somewhere.....
[HD2 General] leoni1980:
are you sure it hasnt been blocked by t-mobile? Could well be an insurance scam: data usually works on blocked phones whereas GSM doesn't.
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Well I've took my O2 sim card out and stuck my T-mobile one back in and the T-mobile one works and the O2 one doesn't, but I can't make calls.

Did some diggging that this ....

I've not been able to use the phone due to it actually being barred from service. Please use the below link ..

www . checkmend . com / uk / verify

With the certificate ID of - CM4510856-D4848

Looks like it's not stolen or lost, but just barred. I wonder why.

Is there any way I can get this removed?
[HD2 General] leoni1980:
Its blocked then: blocked and barred are the same thing. More than likely the seller has sold the device then immediately reported it lost/stolen to claim a new one and thus not only have a new phone buy also a nice slice of cash in their back pocket.

There is no way that the phone will be barred without having been reported as either lost or stolen and there is also no way of having it unblocked unless you are the original owner, haven't made an insurance claim, and ring T-mobile with the blocking password provided when the loss was first reported to the police.

Personally I recommend you lodge a claim with PayPal immediately as any other line of enquiry will only serve to delay the inevitable: you will not get the phone unblocked.

Best of luck sorting it out.
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Complaint logged with Paypal, just have to wait and see what comes of it. Included the link to the file saying it's barred, let's see what the seller has to say about that.

c*ck omlette that he is :)

Thanks so much for the info and shoulder to cry on, heh heh.

All the best, Sii
[HD2 General] TomH01:
Good luck with it mate, hope you get it sorted quickly.
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Well I spoke to T-mobile and they said "no idea why we blocked it, it's not listed as stolen or anything, there you go, unbarred".

I can make calls on my T-mobile sim, however it still REFUSES! to connect to O2, even though I've put in the unlock code supplied by the company listed above.

Spoke to O2 customer support and T-mobile, no bars on the phone, no issues are barring by either provider. Just refuses to connect to O2.

Any ideas?

If not, anyone want to buy a £360 2 day old HD2?
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
i would try and get a different SIm from o2 maybe?

or even try flashing a different radio.
[HD2 General] siilomax:
I've had 3 sims from O2 already this week, they've been really cool about it.

I've also had to ROMS on, the original t-mobile one, and the latest HTC ROM too.

I can't for the life of me figure out what the problem is, it's very annoying.

I may just put it up for sale on the bay of E, it works perfectly on T-mobile.

I'll try some other flashes this evening and see if that fixes it, however I don't think it will. FUnny thing is that it won't connect to the network but the large [G] connects, which does make me believe it's something radio based.
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Been told to check the following ....

Yes in the sim card options type mepd

Network active - locked

Network disabled / inactive - unlocked

ANy ideas how?
[HD2 General] Archer:
Bit of an obivous thing really, but did you have to go through connection setup when you put the O2 SIM in?
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Yes, and it won't connect/register/logon/access the O2 network.

This is the confusing thing, it can see the network but won't register with it :(
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
im not sure exactly which ROMS you have tried so i dont know whether they would have included a radio update... to be sure flash the radio ONLY!
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Can anyone on O2 UK please list the Radio flash they're using and working with?

I did list the ROM I'm currently using in my first post.

I tried this with the originally installed T-mobile ROM (unknown details, apologies) the latest HTC ROMs (United Kingdom 1.48.405.2 and WWE:1.66.405.2) direct from their UK site and then the O2 listed in my first post.

I'll give everything another go tonight, seriously running out of steam on this topic though :(
[HD2 General] mynamesteve:
Im on 02 using radio 2.06.50.04 on mr.vandalay's Leo Lite V2.1 WWE Rom (highly recommended) With HSPL and works like a charm only mod ive need to do is the reg tweek to get mms full size.

Hope this helps mate good luck :)
[HD2 General] siilomax:
Excellent, thanks so much for the information, I'll give that a stab when I get in after work. To save me hunting around, I don't suppose you'd be so awesome as to link to the ROM ;)

Thank for everything guys, I just hope this ROM update fixes something ....
[Hero CDMA General] uppity:
Hi and thanks for the help.

I just got my Hero yesterday and i have horrible reception with it. At my house it constantly goes in and out of service and drops from EVDO to 1X constantly....I live in downtown Grand Rapids which is an entire Green 3G area. I thought maybe doing an update for the PRL would help but service is still bad. I went into work today (i work in downtown Grand Rapids MI) and service is still the same. My battery is almost dead on the phone now from it searching for service as it goes in and out. If you go to sprints coverage map and look at grand rapids mi i think you will see what im talking about...the entire area is dark green. I have had sprint service before and always had Excellent service in the city and surrounding areas. Is it possible i have a bad device?
[Hero CDMA General] chococrazy:
Have you tried updating your profile?
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
yeah update your profile and prl. i have had excellent reception with the hero compared to my past winmo or palm pre/pixi phones.
[Hero CDMA General] tmuka:
i'm not downtown often, but reception and 3g is great in kentwood and cascade...
[Hero CDMA General] 4redstars:
if you've always had Sprint and had good reception it has to be a bad device...unless you have flashed any roms or changed anything. If you did, flash back to stock and try it.
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
Call sprint, complain about bad service, say you have small kids and need the phone service (even if you don't). They'll send you a free airave. Works like a charm for me.

[HD2 General] Deadgonz:
Hello

I'm fairly new to WM devices, having only had my HD2 for 2 weeks now. Found lots of helpful advice and the like on these boards, but now have a query which I couldn't find anything about while searching the forums.

Basically, my HD2 (unbranded from Virgin) was supplied with 1.48 installed. After about a week of ownership I made a backup of the phone using SPB and installed 1.66 following the instructions on HTC's website. I then installed the backup made with SPB onto my phone getting all my programs and contacts back.

When I soft reset the device theloading screen shows the ROM as version 1.66.77xxx, yet I noticed today that when I view the ROM version through the settings > Software Information tab it's shown as 1.48.405.2 (71294). Is this some sort of problem, or something I should just ignore. I'm having no performance issues or anything like that.
[HD2 General] EddyOS:
think someone posted about having this issue somewhere else on here - might be worth backing up using ActiveSync/WMDC and do a flash and restore manually as I think it was said the backup put some system files back on and screwed the flash...might be wrong though
[HD2 General] Archer:
Just ignore it mate. The real ROM version number is the one you see when you reset the device. The one you see in Sense/Windows is one in the registry that was no doubt backed up and then restored from the previous ROM version.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hondasr:
Its this posible make the Sleep Botton work like the iphone botton? For end calls and lock the screen? If exist any app for this please lets me know.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thisiskyleadams:
this would be amazing. one of the only things I miss about my old iPhone.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Iman07:
its funny that i saw this. for the longest time i have been pressing the power button to end a call, obviously it doesnt work, but i still do it from habit from my iphone. i end up having to go in there and end it myself, kinda lame. it shouldnt be too hard i dont think.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] minogue:
I actually hate how im on the phone with my girlfriend and the screen goes on and off various times while im talking. And I sometimes find myself pressing buttons with my cheeck. It really sucks and I wish there was an app to lock it completely while im talking. Its really annoying. Anyone else experience this???
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thisiskyleadams:
I think I have the same issues. I end up putting people on "hold" with my cheek bone, haha.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] minogue:
Exactly, that always happens. Or ill be talking and people be like " Hello, Hello" -- "im here" only to realize that I muted myself. It is very annoying....
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jerrycycle:
Froyo has this feature to end calls with the power button under the accessibility tab.

So, we have to replace our desktop, and we picked up a new one running windows 7. Is it true that WM5 will not work with Windows 7's Mobile Device Center program?

If so, is there any backwards compatible program or tweek that we can do to still let WM5 sync with our outlook on Windows 7?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jerrya:
almost 70 views, and no help? Theres gotta be someone out there that can help! I am just trying to cut down on the surprises before we fully activate the new system, and explain to the wife why her iPaq wont sync, or have the correction when it does happen!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] acidbath5546:
Sorry, I dont think there will be backwards compadability for WinMo 5..

I think its so old it might be time for an upgrade :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
One possible option i've used is running Windows XP in a VM (VMWare in my case) and syncing to Windows XP/Office that way.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] jerrya:
Well, turns out whoever told me that was wrong. The system recognized and synced up our iPaq's just fine. So thanks for the help guys, but turns out Windows 7 Mobile Device Center recognizes WM5!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overground:
Tools you'll need:

1. Rooted Nexus

2. sdcard with 2 primary partitions 1. fat32 2. ext2/3 (I did 500mb)---class 6 card highly recommended

3.Enomther's 1.6.1 found here or Enomther's 1.5.1 found here (placed at root of sdcard)

4. Himem 1.6.1 kernel update found here or Himem 1.51 kernel update found here (placed at root of sdcard)

5. Titanium backup (available in the Market...donation key recommended)

6. Be open to frustration (and possibly, but not likely, damage your device) and not hold me responsible! :D

Steps to take:

If you are already running EM1.5/6.1 WITHOUT the memory kernel hack, you should be able to skip the titanium and wipe part, and skip straight to step #5, however...MAKE SURE YOU NANDROID!!! first.

1. Backup!! (nandroid <most important>/Titanium <recommend donation key, as I don't know free functionality)

2. Wipe

3. Flash 1.5.1 or 1.6.1 (or reflash if already running with himem)

4. Reboot WITHOUT enabling Google backup

5. Lucid in adb shell or terminal emulator (dalvik2sd <lucid -dc -a> optional)

su
lucid -a -sd
lucid -dc -sd
reboot

6. After full boot, reboot to recovery console

8. Once in recovery, flash Himem, reboot again

7. Install Titanium app from the market

8. Restore Titanium backup made in step 1 (in batch>all apps+data option)

9. Reboot one final time

11. Check everything worked by typing "free" in terminal and verify internal storage in settings (mine says 395332 total memory and 174 free internal memory)

12. <optional> Flash/apply theme or morph

EDIT: Beware!!! This is my 666th post!!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overground:
The basic scenario is to set up apps2sd before flashing the himem kernel...I was getting bootloops performing it any other way than this. Your results may vary.

If you get bootloops and skipped anything, you may need to perform complete process.

Also, if in bootloop (stuck at the X splash screen),

adb shell reboot recovery

saves having to pull the battery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolittle:
Little more info needed for the android newbies out there, e.g. ext partition ect

but overall nice how to, and thanks for the info ill giv it whirl soon :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Breakthecycle2:
After flashing the highmem it got's stuck at the X splash screen.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overground:
Ahh, yes...sdcard partitions...Post #1 updated. Good looking out.

Happened to me a couple times in my experiments. Make sure you are not skipping any steps and are not using a different/older copy of the himem...download a fresh copy from the link in the OP as the file has changed in the last few days.

While stuck at the X splash screen (A.K.A. bootloop) do this.

adb shell reboot recovery

start over from step #2 above.

2. wipe

3. flash 1.5.1...etc.

What is the command to reverse the davlik back to the phone memory?

What wouyld the command be in adb to check if apps2sd and davlik2sd or vice versa actually worked correctly before preceding? :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overground:
Should be

su
lucid -dc -g1
reboot
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikey:
# lucid -a -sd
lucid -a -sd
Nothing was done. /system/sd/app is FOLDER.
Please rm -r /system/sd/app first.
Nothing was done. /system/sd/app-private is FOLDER.
Please rm -r /system/sd/app-private first.

Hmmm doesnt seem like it quit worked out lol

Did what it suggested for mt to remove the two folders and reapplied, worked.

lucid -s confirmed it :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overground:
So, you got it working?

If not:

su
lucid -c

will clear your ext partition of app, app-private and dalvik-cache folders. Then you can run lucid -a -sd without issue. You may have to reboot in between, maybe not.

Oh, and thanks for fixing my quote...posted it while driving.

[Imagio General] jerrya:
So, I will be upgrading to my first HTC, the Imagio from Verizon within 6 months (gotta wait for the wifes phone to be due as well). My question is, what are the 'must have' programs, tweeks, accesories, etc, for this beauty?

I want to hit the ground running with both feet once I get this baby home.
[General Topics] klausner:
I've owned a series of HTC phones, largely because of the great resource this forum represents. But I think I've bought my last one.

Long rant follows:

In late December, I got a TP2 as a gift. The unit was new, sealed packaging, the works. T-Mobile branded and locked, but that was OK because I had service with Tmo.

When I got the phone, it was almost impossible to hear anyone on a phone call with the built in speaker. Playing music or other speakerphone activities were fine, but trying to use my ear against the phone didn't work. There are lots of postings about this, but none of the software or config changes worked for me. Tmo refused to support the phone in any way, since I wasn't the original buyer. Even though the phone had only just been released, and had to be under warranty. So I sent the phone to HTC for repair.

Two weeks later I get the phone back, and it still has the problem! Called HTC, and finally found out that they had replaced the antenna! Say What? How is that supposed to raise the volume? I also discovered that they had changed the phone's serial number and the IMEI! I suspect that means they swapped the motherboard, but no one would admit that, and it didn't fix the problem.

So I sent it back to HTC again. Another two weeks, and it comes back. Not in an HTC box with form-fit packing, but what looks like a recycled box that had been used a couple of times. Now the sound works, but there are two faint, light blue smudges in the screen, visible against white backgrounds. Fingerprints? Call HTC again, get another RMA, off to the post office again.

I get confirmation from the post office that the box has been delivered. No word from HTC. After a week, I call them, and finally get told they are trying to decide if they will repair the phone, since obviously I damaged it! I blow a fuse, since I haven't had the phone in my possession long enough to damage it! Ask to speak to the supervisor (Brian Harris) by name. Too many calls to HTC. He agrees that the phone has been in the shop longer than in my hands, and agrees to get it fixed.

Another week goes by. Another call to HTC. No one knows whats happening. All I can find out is that somebody is working on it, but no one knows who, what they are doing, or when I will get the phone back.

I thought getting a new phone was a good thing. I didn't expect to get a box of grief and a huge waste of time.

Tried to find someone at HTC to complain/escalate to, but HTC doesn't seem to have any customer relations contacts or feedback addresses listed anywhere.

Anyone have any suggestion for escalation or otherwise dealing with HTC?

Hi all

I have an HTC Universal i upgrate it to WM6.5 v12 by TOMAL but i am not very happy very slow when i open internet explorer the camera don't work.

I have some questions :

With a rom 128mb thuniversal work very well?

With rom 64mb and linux the pohone work fast and well?

Wath is the diference with G3 and G4?

Wath is the best version WM6.1 or WM6.5 for rom 64mb?

Thanks

Cali_03
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Cali_03:
Hi

Some answer please.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Welcome to forums

You must know WM 6.5 runs very slow and takes too much RAM on Universal with 64Mb of RAM (this is the factory original RAM that all Universals came)

You can do a RAM upgrade to 128Mb RAM (if you find a place to do that)

1- You can´t just flash a 128 or 64Mb ROM, you can only flash a 128Mb ROM if you have upgraded your Universal RAM to 128Mb:eek:

2. If you want a faster ROM then use a WM6.1 and not WM6.5

3. Read here to find out what is G3 or G4: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=549207 (post 2)

4. As stated many many times before, there is no such "best version" or "best ROM"!!!

Try them all till you get your best!

Said that..... I have found Tomal 8.2 and 8.5 the most stable ones

Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!

Good luck,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Cali_03:
Thanks for you reply.

I have read the post of G3 or G4 but i don't unterstand very well.

If i put an SD Card the HTC will be use like ram memory?

worth put a ram 128mb the htc will be more better or just a litltle?

Thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
The SD card is a storage card. You can put your applications and their data files on it (if the apps allow this). I use mine to install many applications and put my music, videos, maps and books on it.

The main memory (64MB for most Uni's) is taken by the OS (Windows Mobile 5/6) and other programs installed there, and also is needed by any running programs. This memory cannot be increased by an SD card. It is common to try and place as little as possible here, especially if you only have a 64MB machine.

Only worry about G3/G4 if the ROM is specific to one or the other. In that case, you need to find out if your phone is compatible with that ROM (read wiki). Most ROMs are compatible with G3 and G4 machines.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Cali_03:
Hi jonny

Are you happy with 128MB ram you see the diference between 64MB?

I see you have Radio 1.18 but when my HTC Universal boot i have the Radio 0.0 it's normal it's important update it?

Best regard's
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] enigma1nz:
A good start would be to familiarise yourself with your device and its specifications, as well as how things work, actually know the basics beforehand, so to speak.

Yes, there is quite a bit of difference in performance between upgrading your device to 128Mb and keeping the standard 64Mb RAM, mainly in the number of programs the device will be able to run simultaneously, as well as being capable to handle resources-hungry applications.

Your Radio cannot be 0.0, you will not be able to run the device in any capacity other than just PDA, therefore it is important to flash the Radio. There are a few radio versions, you can try them and see which gives you the best performance in terms of signal strength and stability.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] enigma1nz:
Linux?

As far as ROMs are concerned, stay with 6.1.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
Hi Cali, I run WM6.5 and Opera 10, so 128MB is much better. I can also run my navigation system and listen to music at same time etc etc, which I couldn't with 64MB. (Having 128MB means you can run memory hungry apps like OperaMobile10, and/or run more apps at the same time). [sorry, as enigma says.. I have just read her replies]

If your radio reads 0.0, it just means that's the stock radio that your device came with. I would only change it if you are having reception/connection problems.
