[Desire General] al89nut:
which option after 150? To talk to a human being I mean

Edit - tried again and again told no, contract was through MPD and so is for 1 gig only. I am about to have a coronary about this! Where does it say that on their website about Android?
[Desire General] callummc:
keep going through the options till you find technical support I think. cant really remember, sorry :(
[Desire General] TeCH-Guruz:
I got mine via mobiles.co.uk rang t-mobile and they switched me over to the 3gb data plan and gave me free landline calls no problem. I am pretty sure you are only supposed to get this if you go direct with t-mobile. You gotta love how t-mobile dont train their staff properly ;) I mean if they did we wouldnt be able to get the phone free elsewhere then get them to give us the t-mobile direct deals would we :D
[Desire General] yeahdisk:
Just did mine - transferred over no problem.

To reach technical support I basically mashed the keypad until I was given the option to talk to technical support.

(Also, like a previous poster, MPD had registered my handset as a Nokia 6303!?!?)
[Desire General] al89nut:
Success via tech support and quoting the fair use policy for Android devices back at them from their own website. Amazed.
[Desire General] callummc:
good to hear you guys got it sorted.
[Desire General] Shawuk:
Eeek! Just ordered off MPD.

600 minutes 500 texts +ultd web - £25/24months

I only have a solo card (Natwest Adapt) which they don't accept, but it's got a Maestro logo on it too so i just said it was a Maestro card and they accept Maestro cards... hmm I doubt they'll accept it lol...

Anybody know if they will?

Thanks.
[Desire General] TH1882FC:
Right, I have just been on the phone to T-Mobile and got it sorted as well. - i just called the overseas number "If you're abroad - call +44 79539 66 150" and the fella that answered dealt with the entire thing.

I'm now on 300minutes, 300 texts, 3gb/unlimited internet and 1 flexible booster for £25.00 per month.

I pointed them in the direction of the £25 a month 18 month contract listed here which clearly states

"300minutes, 300 texts, unlimited internet and 1 flexible booster for £25.00 per month"

http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/shop/mobile-phones/phones/pay-monthly/htc/desire/price-plans/

And also directed them to this:

Internet on your phone - Important Info

And then after that he agreed i should have internet as well as the booster and said i'd now got 1gb internet....

I thanked him and then pointed out it should be 3gb as its an android handset:

http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/uk/fairuse/#fup2

Wish i'd made the call before i factory reset the bloody thing and packaged it up to send back ;)
[Desire General] callummc:
thats a very good point. gonna try and cut my tariff down from £30 to £25 after hearing that.
[Desire General] rodhull:
Glad you guys are getting this sorted! The speed increase alone really does make a difference - not to mention the extra free booster :)
[Desire General] vilbs:
Wahooo! Got it sorted. Right - there was no way they were going to change anything until I mentioned that I am on an Android device. She said she would look to see whether the Nokia was an Android device. Ding! It's not a Nokia its a Desire. Oh in that case sir, bish bash bosh, all sorted :D Very happy - thanks guys :)
[Desire General] TH1882FC:
I have just set up my account on line and it asked which handset i was using and i said the desire (even though the sim is in my wifes iphone) it might help anyone calling up to do this in advance..
[Desire General] freckybrek:
Just a quickie to say thanks for the ppl on this thread pointing me in the right direction concerning poor connection speeds with Tmobile via MPD and thought Id share my experience.

In short I had spoken to tmob many times complaining of my connection maxing out at 360 kbps. I was generally fobbed off until I spoke to girl this morning who sorted me out.

I asked her to look at what data package I was on and if it reflected my poor download speeds. She confirmed I was on a 1gb web and walk data package hence the speed. I told her I thought I was on the 3g package and was disappointed with the internet speeds. She said she could upgrade me to a 3gb package called web and walk plus free of charge and that I should see a speed increase.

Low and behold half an hour later my connection was now downloading at between 1050 - 1914kbps :D
[Desire General] LPT:
Guys, Is there any ways to know if we got 3GB FUP? I did call the technical support, and asked for 3GB FUP, a lady told me that would be done. However, just checked my speedtest, speed is still limited around 360kbps...:(
[Desire General] meilies:
Wow, did I have a lot of to-ing and fro-ing with t-mob on this, it began at 10am and only just ended, I did get what I wanted in the end. They had to talk to managers and then call back, and then said no, you bought the phone through MPD, so you can't have inclusive internet - only as FB. I can only have it inclusive with a FB if I go over to their 24month contract - rubbish! Do not accept this if offered to you as negates their own policy and promise, contact lies with t-mob not MPD! So, as am also still in 7 day cooling off period - threatened to leave and join Orange. I think it may have focused the mind - they said yes - so all sorted.

Thank you all:)
[Desire General] freckybrek:
I had to wait just over an hour and restarted my phone before seeing drastic speed improvements.

Hope that helps...

Who are my heroes?????

Everyone on this forum are my heroes!!!!!!!

I just gave t-mobile a bell after reading this thread and some brilliant Welsh lad notched up the speed of my internet, swapped around my boosters and gave me a fiver off, FANTASTIC.

Thanks for all your help everyone.

ps: i just called making an enquiry about the speed and that i heard it was meant to be much faster and he looked into my account and realised that i was on the wrong package on account of having an android device.

Hi all,

i am new to this forum but i have had the same problem and i posted the below on teh t-mobile forum

I got my HTC desire from Carphone warehouse £30.00 per month 900 minutes 500 sms and data.

Now i have called T-mobile several times and chatted to the guys on the twitter page,but it took me asking for a manager to get this sorted. Today at last i spoke to someone on the number 150 from the handset and then went through to the option for amemding minutes/internet. I spoke to a helfull girl but she stated as i bought my handset from Carphone warehouse it is on the 1GB tariff and it will cost me a further £5 per month if i want web and walk plus with the 3GB allowance and faster data speeds. She want away several times coming back with same answer.Spoke to a manager who added the Web and Walk + 3GB for free and apologised to me after i quoted on there TnC for the Android handsets that they all should be on the 3GB data allowance and it does not say you are on the 1GB one if you get the handset from somewhere else.

So i have now run the speed test app from the app store and download speeds where i am at the moment up form 356kbs to 1878kbs and 1298kbs upload..Alot better and the person at T-mobile said when i go onto the 3GB my speed wont increase!!! Victory and plus i now have unlimited sms as well

Thanks

Dan
[Desire General] popkid:
I bought phone through Carphone Warehouse (MPD are part of CPW) and was on 1GB FUP, no extra booster and T-Mobile actually volunteered to put me on the 3gb FUP package yesterday, I couldn't access ftp sites on my phone, called for tech support to see if they were blocked on T-Mobile (could access ok on O2) seems they are on 1gb FUP but not on 3gb FUP

They said, "oh, you've been put on the wrong contract, android devices are 3gb FUP by default and an extra booster", I actually said "are you sure, thought that was only if you bought from t-mobile direct, I'm paying a fiver less!" and they said it shouldn't make any difference and upgraded me on the spot, giving me 3gb FUP and unlimited landline calls into the bargain

Neat... when I bought from CPW I was aware that it had internet but no extra booster, but phone was not T-Mobile sim locked and was a fiver a month cheaper so I bought from them, I wasn't aware of the 1gb FUP/3gb FUP difference but now that has gone I'm just £5 a month better off with generic ROM to boot :)

Hey guys, is this same stuff going to apply with the new Desire HD. Are we all going to have to go through this again?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] qavro:
Hi, i've just got a new Xperia X1, a new one but for reasons beyond my control i got no CD whatsoever with it. I will like to have a new ROM of course and all that good stuff i have seen here but now comes the thing i need help with:

what software do i need to run on my PC to connect it to Xperia for upgrade, flashing etc, and where i can get this software from, or even the whole Xperia CD to download? I run Win7 64bit Ultimate Edition on my PC.

Thank you very much for your help. I am sorry i've posted in a wrong section :(

P.S. I promiss to post here a "how to" for making your xperia auto-rotate exacly like the devices that use an accelerometer for that. Just need a bit of time for pictures, write-ups etc.It will be the "poor man's" method though, but very effective.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] azaberl:
if you would like to make a official upgrade, than you need SonyEricsson Update Service (you can find it on SE's site)

for cooked roms, first make a Hard-SPL, than flash a custom rom (read stickies above)

if you flash with pc, you will need windows mobile device center (not needed with micro-sd method)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] qavro:
Thank you. The guy who sold it had already installed WM 6.5 on it. It means that it has Hard SPL already?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] azaberl:
correct, you already have hard-spl
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rrene:
Windows Mobile Device Center for Windows 7 PC is also needed to establish an Active Sync connection. Available at microsoft.com

All additional software including guides on how to flash custom ROMs can be found in the stickys.

Hi, I got installed the Spb Mobile Shell Application, and it looks great, I finally can edit all my home screens, but I cant believe that if I want to access contacts list, I have to go to launcher and then Contacts, so my question is,

How can I create a Contacts List Home Shortcut, so I can access in just one click.

Thanks previously for your help!!!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] fofo13:
I have installed Espresso Theme for all the widgets that this bring it. So How can I make a Contacts List Shortcut? :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
Sorry, not sure I'm understanding you exactly.

You could set your left softkey to contacts in your registry under HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila

or install "Second Today" ap and set the softkey in that ap.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] fofo13:
I Have installed spb mobile shell, which is an application like manila, so, when I install it, manila disables, I dont have manilas tab, just spb, and then I installed 'Espresso Theme' for spb whic contains more widgets, after this two installations, I dont have contacts list shortcut, so, how can I create a shortcut in my spb mobile shell home to access it in just one click?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
I am familiar with SPB MS just not the espresso theme with widgets.

Sorry.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] fofo13:
When I installed Espresso Theme, my Contacts List Shortcut disappear, I Attached my Home Spb MS screen!!

Can I make a shortcut with ShellExtension app?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] herminator007:
all screens on SpB MS can be modifyed, and with that you can chose which short cuts are present. maybe the espresso theme does not have the "contacts" on screen, but on the lower right corner you can usually select the modifications of you screen. (should be a square not an arrow)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] ArtieQ:
The best you can do I think is to make a shortcut for a SPECIFIC contact.

Its been almost two (2) years since I last used my htc exec when the usb cable socket of the device stopped working. With my repeated failure to connect via bluetooth, I dumped the device and replaced it with nokia 5800 (no comparison!). At that time, I just don't have the patience to troubleshoot it but I recently solved it when I upgraded my laptop to windows 7 so I'm back with it now (missed the qwerty). I notice though that the keys are not as responsive as before. Any solution to this? I'm also looking for a tweeter software for win mobile, I appreciate if there are suggestions. Thank you.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] arampatla:
Try to blow the key pad with air blower to clean it up. Or look for key pad membrane on Ebay, it costs a few bucks. If the USB cable is failty (For connecting to the PC just buy any USB to mini usb connector it should work. And can be found cheap on Ebay too. for more infor check the XDA Wiki.:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] genesis:
Thanks bro!will try your suggestion later when I get home. For my USB cable, its just weird coz it will work when I charge the battery but it wont work when syncing. Anyway, I already addressed it via bluetooth connection. It syncs well with windows 7. Still using winmobile 6.1 by Ranju though I'm hoping I can reflash it still via bluetooth for newer roms (nothing wrong with ranju's - one of the stable roms i've ever used). Cheers!

There is no such thing as "best ROM"

All will depend on your personal needs.

What is best to me not necessary should be for you.

Said that, enter to ROM section and read a bit to know users comments, then make your choice:eek:

On my opinion Tomal 8.2, 8.5 and 8.9 are the more stable and great performance, but it´s up to you to find out your "best"

Best ROM for iMate JasJar (HTC Universal, Exec, ...)

I would have to agree that Tomal's 8.5 is the best of the posted ROMs. Not perfect, but it is very stable, good performing, yet fresh enough to run most new apps.

Above 8.5, there's all this annoying stuff in the UI, and performance and memory usage take a hit. Below 8.5, certain niceties like drag-scrolling disappear, the dialer looks ugly, and fundamental apps such as Microsoft's Facebook won't install.

There are a few non-Tomal ROMs out there - one of them, a WM5-based version, is really very good, and I used it for weeks. But for me, 8.5 with WM6.1 is the best compromise.

It looks like I'll be staying with this ROM, and staying with my iMate JasJar, until a similar or better big-keyboard big-screen phone running Windows Phone 7 becomes cheap enough.

Cheers

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Kkhan:
First I installed luca16thebig's light ROM 6.1, I found it really awesome as it was really fast and stable in the beginning. But as the time passed I realized that my battery is draining a lot quicker and also the mobile started to RESTART itself once every hour. The last thing which forced me to reflash the device was when I wanted to configure GPRS and no matter what I did it didn't want to connect.

Afterards I installed "TML v8.7.1 21028 regular 64MB", and so far everything is working fine, though its just been 2 days. GPRS is good and battery time is better.

Things I am not liking is the non availability of MMS inside the ROM and also I would really want to disable Auto Time Sync feature somehow.

Apart from this I believe it is so good. But I will flash "TML89_WM61_21048_REGULAR_64MB" or "TML89_WM61_21048_LITE_64MB" tomorrow just to check whats new in there :)

I hope it helped someone
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] -Jonny-:
Have a look through ROM thread, you can disable timesync by deleting from REG startup. MMS can be downloaded as cab, use Dutty's - I've posted it somewhere.

Hi there i have a sprint cdma hero I followed the instructions here:

theunlockr.com/2009/11/07/how-to-root-your-cdma-htc-hero-sprint-verizon/

Once i gained root access I typed on my pc via the android sdk

adb shell

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img

I then shut the phone off and press home + power to get into the recovery console so I can tell it to recover the modaco update.zip on the sdcard

Only thing is i never get to that screen, it just doesnt go to the "blue screen" I get a white screen with 3 skateboarding androids at the bottom

The only screen i have is a white screen with the following info

You are holding the power button while holding the home button.

Just press the power while holding the home button, don't hold the power button also.
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Only hold home and press power...

And side question...

Why the modaco rom? that is very outdated...

Read the Rom wiki at the top of this forum and read through those roms.. Modaco abandoned the hero a few months ago..
[Hero CDMA General] sublimenal:
Ahh i see i didnt know there were more mods, well the main reason im doing this is so i can get wifi tether to work. What would be the best rom out there for this? and overall best rom?
[Hero CDMA General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Personally I run the Fresh 2.1d because it was the first with a complete Wifi tether working.

But DamageControl or any of the 2.1 roms have it working, just read the changelog in each post.. They tell you what's working and what's not.
[Hero CDMA General] travlincablguy:
its easier to get into recovery if you hold volume down and press power on.
[Hero CDMA General] sublimenal:
Hey thanks that worked perfectly I'm at another roadblock though. I got into the recovery screen, i installed update.zip (I used damageControl zip file) and now it just puts into a htc quietly brilliant screen then it looks like something doesnt load and then reboots. It loops the reboot continuously. Is there any steps i should take into fixing this?
[Hero CDMA General] sublimenal:
Ok this is what i did

i got the RA screen like recommended by holding volume down then pressing power. But there is one more step i had to take, that was holding down the home button once in that screen.

From there i had the reboot problem, i went back into RA and did a wipe. I thought it was going to wipe my system and bring it back to pre-damagecontrol. Booted up and it was a fresh copy of damagecontrol with all my contacts still there :D

Thanks for the help guys
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XSafire:
Somewhat recently team XDANDROID released an Android build for WM. However these ROM's only work with the HTC devices they were intended to work on.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=601751

For those of us without an HTC device, I was wondering if it would be possible to create a universal ROM for designated screen sizes (one for qvga, one for vga, etc) and have them work on devices that are powerful enough, with the appropriate resolution. Or do you just have to create one for each phone?

I personally own a Samsung Epix (i907), and I am extremely disappointed in Samsung's job of porting WM, and releasing the 6.5 update (it was supposed to come out in December, it keeps getting delayed. They did this with the Blackjack II when 6.0 came out) and am not a huge fan of the available ROM.

If not, is there a possible workaround to let me use android on my device? Like an emulator of some sorts? All m searches have turned up nothing useful.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheDeadCPU:
Well.. Making a universal ROM would be extremely difficult, and a HUGE ROM.. Because you'll need drivers for every device then..
