[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swaze:
Im not 100% certain but I think you can. In my case, I always had an individual simply everything plan for myself. I added my wife to my account recently and we were setup as two simply everything individual accounts, so I think it is possible. But more recently we switched to a family plan because the cost of adding a line on the individual plan is $89, and on the family plan is $19. So most likely you would want to change to a family plan if you are wanting to add a line. Its much cheaper.

Is it possible to play FM radio without headset inserted by using some sort of hack.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aitese:
That hack would involve convincing your phone to tune into a signal without an aerial. That will be quite the feat...let us know how that works out.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doinbox:
Ok that was my original thought. So what would happen if i where to get a pair of headphones and cut all the wire off and just use the plug. Do you think i would still get signal then or would it need the wire.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aitese:
The wire IS the aerial. you need it. The phone's inbuilt antenna won't do it, the plug is also not sufficient. Sorry
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doinbox:
Darn it!!!

oh well i suppose last FM will do.

Thanks for your replys m8
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ziao:
one way i always used to do it (and works on the desire perfectly)

is get some old, maybe non working headphones, cut them off at about 5 cm from the plug, and there you go.

you will ofcourse not get as good reception as usually, but where i live i have no trouble at all, the signal is crystal clear
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doinbox:
Cheers M8 I'll give that a go tonight been dying to cut my Iphone headphones up since i got rid of it.

same problem for me, french Desire Orange unbranded ...

only WiFi does not work. Bluetooth seems ok. :confused::confused:
[Desire General] gtp:
hi all, I think we all are in the same boat, it appeared that only debranded phones are affected. mine debranded T-Mobile as well. damn, I was so happy when I saw an OTA update at the first time. who could expect it will kill my wi-fi. however, I've seen guys on another forum that the problem is solved if you reload the full ROM from the beginning, even 1.21 works great. I've just downloaded one from this thread, going to install now and see. the problem is that you have to back up everything because it will kill all data on your phone. personally I'm not going to backup as there's not much to loose there for me and I wish to have a very clean install. cheers!

Same problem with my debranded T-Mobile Desire. Can't flash the original RUU I found here in this forum. My desire starts and hangs at the black screen showing the HTC Logo but did not continue flashing the rom. By unplugging the USB Cable the bootloader appears and show 0.75. I thought it must show 0.80 ? Any ideas how to flash the rom that brings back my WLAN?

[Desire General] BlackbirdSDH:
OK I solved the problem with the broken WiFi Connection.

I replaced the ROM with one posted here in this forum.

I just flashed it and after the reboot, i have had the new ROM with a working WiFi Connection.

There is a strange thing that I revognized during the procedure. The ROM with the broken WiFi Link showed me a bootloader version of 0.75, after the flash I got 0.80.

I would be interested if some users have the 0.75 bootloader too even after the update.

Hope I could help some of you guys still having the problem.

My mount looses suction after about 3 minutes and everything falls 'glass first' toward the stick shift! It forces me to put my life and car at risk trying to catch this thing to save my precious phone. And yes, I know how to use the twist lock feature and the accompanying disk. Am I missing a step? I know a long time ago it was suggested to use petroleum jelly with suction cups, but I thought those days were past.

Any (good) suggestions on making this stick long enough for a decent drive?
[Nexus One Accessories] logger:
Attach the suction cup directly to the windscreen glass instead of to the disc, which I assume you have stuck to the dash. Mine has not budged in the 2 months I have had it.
[Nexus One Accessories] Devastatin:
if the disk or the cup are even the slightest dirty, you will lose suction.

Did you use the cleaning pad that came with it and made super sure it was clean?
[Nexus One Accessories] MaFi0s0:
Also attach it with the pull off tab facing up.

Its usually humidity changes that effect its suction, so I would probably re-attach it each morning and afternoon.
[Nexus One Accessories] liam.lah:
Breath a bit of moisture onto it. Also get a cleaning wipe and make sure both surfaces are clean.

They can't.

If you're ALREADY in your contract on the previous plans they can't change them on you without your consent, if they do you get a instant out on your contract..but they wont. Just get's annoying because now if you want to add tethering after the 7th they WILL switch you to the new plans.
[General Topics] Knightsofwar210:
Heh with T-Mobile's "Unlimited Plan" (which I use) it's actually 10gb which isn't bad and I've only gone over it once because I was tethering and doing instant play on Netflix. This will probably move people from AT&T to dying Sprint because of this and Sprint is getting the Evo 4G.

[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
I have owned the P900, P910, X1, and X10 and I am reaching the end of the rope with SE's terrible after sales service.

I am think about the EVO 4G (but using the 3G).

What is the point of all of this hardware in the X10 if you can't take advantage of half of it? By the time the 2.1 comes to the X10 I want to be upgrading to another device. I like upgrading once a year. But with SE you have to live with the most annoying short comings for ten month's and by than you are already feed up with their device.

I was so excited to hear about Adobe coming out with the 10.1 flash in June. But it will only be compatible with Android 2.2 or higher. The battery life of the EVO 4G is not so great either (so I hear). But this is suppose to stem from the 4G which I won't use. The EVO will come with 2.1 and will update to the 2.2 at a time not yet stated. But I doubt very seriously it will take the eight months SE are stating for the 2.1. And, that is if they are time (which would be a first).

And, I really don't care if there are a few people saying they get two to three days on their battery with moderate use. First of all I don't believe it.

I get an hour and a half to two hours of talk time with 30 to 45 minutes or so of web and I am down to 20 percent or less. This battery last no more than 9 hours or so with light use. Talk about false advertising.

The phone volume is unacceptable and there is a serious lack of control features that could help set the phone to preform better.

There are plenty of positives working in the X10's advantage. However, based on my expectation the negatives are too much to take. And, SE support might be the worst service I have ever put up with for this long.

I honestly don't know if I am willing to ever give SE my business again. More than likely I will let SE be the hardware first, and I will buy who ever comes out with the second since they usually do what they are built to do without having to wait a year.
[XPERIA X10 General] beetleman:
well,I had P990i , and I still love my X10. What can I say, I sold my HTC legend and decided to keep X10.

great camera,great speed, and great screen under sun.

so for normal use x10 is just fine. My friend with moto droid also has battery problems,it is bad for all new smartphones.

update on new version of Android will bring HD video recording,and with that I can live without multitouch.

@ fm1776

You got a very good point there and did cross my mind too. as a X10i user, and basically stayed in queue to get X10 on the first day available in the stores.

I no longer except SE to do anything on this great peace of hardware. rooting the phone is my only hope. otherwise by now i will be planning to dump this. So many developments threads all over the web but when will they be able to root this…..:mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] joel4149:
You may choose to dump SE but you will find youself back to them very soon, there is nothing better out there.

I also was a strong SE fan since the t68i but got upset by the slow response to the k850 since then i tried HTC WM, NOKIA, iphone, and many many more, now I'm back to SE and chose to stay with them, as much i hate them i still love them over anyone else.

[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
I know what I am saying wont apply to everyone. We all have different aspects of our devices that were the selling features as to why each of us made our decision to buy.

There is a lot to love about the X10. And yes, maybe if the phone gets rooted I will lok at things differently. But between it taking eight months to upgrade to the 2.1 no less, and SE being so tight lipped about the life cycle of this device I feel like I am being taken for granted. And, to be honest after being such a loyal customer to SE I am starting to become offended.

I will give it as long as it takes for the EVO G4 to start getting it's feedback. And, if there is nothing new from SE on the X10 I am gone for good.

Wifi's not a problem on mine.. it's 3G which kills the battery.. 2G a bit too, but when on 3G the battery just drains even when the phone is meant to be "sleeping".. on wifi.. it sleeps just fine.. drains about 1% per 3 hours when sleeping... @fm1776.. it's a shame you always suffered with bad battery life - let us know if things improve on your next handset, which ever one you go for.
[XPERIA X10 General] fm1776:
It doesn't look like I will do anything until July. Haven't made up my mind to go back to x1 in the mean time or (more likely) use the X1 to charge back up battery for the X10. Two batteries should get me through the day (sad).

I am serious about the EVO G4 (and not use the actual G4) But not if it is another device that wont make it through the day.

I love the x10 in terms of hardware but the software really just holds back the phone from being good to great.

Right now I plan to keep my new N1 and X10. X10 is right now my weekend phone. Hopefully we get 2.2 and I can just use one phone.

I've been looking around for quite a while for the right stereo headset. (for me) I wanted something with easy access. I could possibly wear or put in my shirt pocket. I found this Jabra BT3030 pretty cheap on eBay. (It may be a knock-off but works great) I think I got it for $26 including shipping Hong Kong to Largo, FL. It did take about 3 weeks to get it but it was well worth the wait.

I tried using the ball chain lanyard that came with it. I found it was a little cumbersome with the extra headset wire and such. I got a nice pair of Skullcandy earbuds. The cheap ones. $14 at CompUSA. Since they were cheap I didn't mind experimenting with them. When I first got the earbuds I was really disappointed. The sound was horrible. No bass, and really tinty. I found that you have give them a chance. They have to break-in. Now I get rich sound and deep ear-rattling bass.

Here is my mod...

I figured out how to pop the earbuds open.

I was able to carefully remove the Skullcandy cable splitter thingy. I actually slid it about an inch and a half from the plug.

I shortened the earphone cables to where they could wrap behind my neck and make it comfortably up to my ears.

I put a small piece of fuel tubing (left over from another hobby) so they crossed behind my neck.

I then soldered the cables back on to the earbuds, and superglued them back closed.

Now I have a comfortable necklace that I can wear around my neck, inside or outside my shirt collar. The dog tag like BT xmitter is small and lightweight so it hangs nicely, usually under my shirt. I can quickly grab an earbud and press answer button on the xmitter under my shirt to answer the phone. I can also listen to tunes while I wait for things to finish while I'm working on computers.

For apply anything to this device, it need to add directly to the rom and flash it. can not use update.zip as normal android phone(because it have 3 OS in it).

I know how to uncompress and re-compress the rom file and able to remove or add any file in to the rom.

So, I think that if I know how Android Market work on the phone. it should be able to apply it for this device also.

Any help will be great.
