[HD2 General] Phantoms:
I was on the original SunCom Family Unplan ($59/month unlimited/$29/Month additional phones) and added the SunCom web $5/month as soon as SunCom offered it (had a HP IPAQ WM phone at the time) up until about a year ago. I was grandfathered in to T-Mobile when they took over SunCom and kept the same plan.

My daughter moved out of the coverage area last year and the only thing I could do was change to a T-Mobile plan (Even More Plus now) to keep her from roaming. While the regular part of the bill is about the same, the Data plan jumped to $25/month.
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Gejenn I am not sure but I pretty sure they would put the 10GB CAP if you change to the unlimited plan of $30.00/month. If you getting fast speeds I would recommend you stay on that $19.99 plan but I don't know if that plan has a CAP either. Anyways you should call and ask ^^
[HD2 General] d0ug:
I had a tmo rep stop by my company today. He did confirm that HSPA+ is on here in Tampa, its still being rolled out though. The roll out started last Wed. I didn't ask about the brighthouse being used for the backhaul, but he did bring that up as well. There is also a 5GB cap where they start to throttle. Not sure how you were able to hit 10. maybe the throttling isn't turned on in all markets yet?
[HD2 General] heygrl:
Depending on your upgrade, you might not have to switch your data plan to the newer plans.

The newer more expensive plans are capped at either 5GB or 10GB, there is nothing solid on the cap because when T-Mobile introduced the webConnect 5GB no overage plans in favor of throttling, the 10GB usage cap for phones was reduced. So, it could still be 10GB for phones.. it could be 5GB for newer lines.. but one thing is for certain, they're throttling after 10GB.
[HD2 General] d0ug:
Hmm wonder what mine is capped at, I have the old $20 Unlimited VPN plan that includes MMS messages.

With the HSPA+ on here in Tampa I did find that I had to change from the VPN APN internet3.voicestream.com to the now standard epc.tmobile.com to get even faster speeds. I haven't tried testing any other APN's yet.

Using the internet3 APN i did notice a speed bump the day after it was upgraded, but i was topping out around 1.5mbps, using epc ive almost hit 5mbps a few times.

according to speedtest.net while using internet3 it seems to think im located somewhere in Kansas, whereas using epc it correctly identifies me as being in Tampa. I wonder if internet3 runs though tmobile's internal network and pops out at a datacenter/pop somewhere in Kansas?

I also wonder if the APN you are on could determine the cap where they start to throttle you?
[HD2 General] heygrl:
Your plan is probably completely unlimited. They also could be throttling this APN, it's definitely not out of the question for them to throttle certain APN's.

The internet2/3 seems to assign IP's only from Kansas, but the epc APN assigns IP's that are much closer to your actual location.

Speedtest.net (on the web) determines your location based on your IP so that's probably the reason why it's showing up in Kansas.
[HD2 General] d0ug:
I think i will try and find out this month =) with HSPA+ on now, that shouldn't take too long while tethered.

Think ill take it slow throughout the month try to hit the 5G mark a week before the billing cycle ends. Then if im still not throttled try and gobble up another 5GB that last week.

Least then I don't gobble up the 5GB now and be stuck throttled all month. that would suck.
[HD2 General] dy2k:
@d0ug

Thats great to hear you are getting 5mbps. I get those speeds 2 ^^.

I tried looking on the bill statement about data usage but it says no data usage for this month :P. I will try again this month.
[HD2 General] d0ug:
Hmm, I always remember the bills having the data usage, ill admit i haven't looked that closely the last couple months. Ill look at the next one I get.

You can also get current usage off my.t-mobile.com, its delayed by about an hour or so
[HD2 General] :
Mine never shows data usage I switched to a unlimited plan a while back and am on a business plan ...

I can say I have not gone over the 10gb but I am sure I am getting close, will post back if I think I hit it ...
[HD2 General] heygrl:
Maybe it's because you have a buisness line. Those are supposed to be truly unlimited. However, my usage shows as unlimited and it does give me a readout of how many MBs I've used. If you are soft capped at 10GB they'll text you saying you've gone over and will be throttled.
[HD2 General] dy2k:
looking at your data usage it seems you have a 5 gb cap. hmm hopefully mine gives me 10 ^^
[HD2 General] d0ug:
I always assumed that bar scaled you worked your way up, i dunno though never got that far.

As far as the bill showing usage, mine does and breaks it down between VPN and regular usage. Bill pic attached.

Whenever I access the internet using internet3.voicestream.com it counts the usage under "VPN Access". Whenever I use epc.tmobile.com wap.voicestream.com or internet2.voicestream.com it counts usage under "Internet Access"

For whatever reason MMS messages can only be sent/received using one of the non VPN APNs, so even if i use VPN full time i still tally up usage under "Internet Access" from MMS usage

If you ever looked closely at the data profiles on the HD2 you'll notice there are T-Mobile Data and T-Mobile MMS profiles. Whenever im on the internet3 apn and send/receive a MMS, the HD2 will disconnect from the intenet3 session and start a new session using the settings in the T-Mobile MMS profile, send/receive the message and then disconnect and reconnect to internet3
[HD2 General] Paten:
For interested parties:

T-Mobile expands HSPA+ footprint, now covers over 25 metro areas

...will be available in the newly-upgraded markets, which include LA, Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, Tampa, Orlando, Pittsburgh, Charlotte, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and New Orleans, among others.

I'm glad I still have that $5.99 T-zones package. My data usage bar on my.t-mobile.com always says zero.
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Today I looked at my bill and saw exactly how much data I've used in the month. Hmm well I went a little over the cap ^^
[HD2 General] d0ug:
What APN do you use? What data plan is on your account?
[HD2 General] dy2k:
I have the unlimited $30 a month internet. And I used APN epc.tmobile.com

I get 5.5 mbps so its not hard to get to the 10gb cap
[HD2 General] :
Meh...epc has never worked especially well for me believe it or not. I prefer internet3.

~Jasecloud4
[HD2 General] KruseLudsMobile:
Bad news folks about unlimited web

I heard on the news the other day that one of the carriers (I forgot who) was going to drop all of their unlimited plans (I am just speaking about DATA here, not talk minutes) and offer tiered pricing plans. Those who already have unlimited data and just renew could be 'grandfathered in' and stick with the unlimited, but nobody else will be allowed to. The same news story also stated that within the next several months ALL the carriers are going to adopt this same tactic. Anyone else hear about this?
[HD2 General] heygrl:
That's AT&T Mobility aka Deathstar/Ma Bell
[HD2 General] dy2k:
Well hopefully they don't cut the internet plan because that would make them loose lots of customers. I would cut the internet if that was the case...or even cut my phone off ^^
[HD2 General] :
Yeah, they capped it at $15 a month for 200mb and $25 for 2Gb. It's pretty sh***y.

Yet another reason to stay away from AT&T.

~Jasecloud4
[HD2 General] CDR123:
yes theres a cap of 10 gigs but, thank tmobile for nmot charging you for the extra you went over

other companies would charge the sh** out of you
[HD2 General] tecjunkie:
I fell victim to the 10 gig cap today for the first time. I remember seeing something about this in the past but I just thought it was for the usb sticks. Fortunately my billing date resets tomorrow.

I logged in to my account online and seen the 10 gig usage but on the meter I was maybe 1/4 of the way like alot of the posted pics here. Do they charge you if you ever go beyond that?

Here is the kicker for me. Today I woke up received the the threshold text that I have never received before. I seen my speed was going to be throttled so I did a speed test. I have been under a meg and today I was at 6 meg dl/ 1.5 up. I was it utter shock. Right now I am at my usual speed under a meg .95 to be exact. I am not sure if they were just testing out the pipes today or I am the mercy of the cap. I guess we will see what tomorrow brings.

Flashed a vodafone 1605 rom to my tytn,all went ok.

Only I don't seem to have HardSPL anymore?

It says 1.09.ds

I've tried unlocking and it does say 1.40 olipro.

I then try upgrading to 2.10 but it fails.

I then tried flashing 2.10 from sd card and it says success but the hspl still says 1.40.

I then try from pc it goes through the motions,says 1.40 but then it says 1.09.ds.

I'm doing all this in win7x64,I've flashed a few times with this os and all went ok before.

What can I do?

Or has vodafone rom stiffed me?

I'll try with XPx64 now.......

OK

Panic over,it all went well in XPx64,HSPL is now 2.10 :D

yes has already been reported several times.

You can try and solve it yourself with a suction instrument, by"raising" the top layer of the screen and remove that "glued" part, yet if you can wait some day, you'd be better off removing HSPL (if any) and send it back for warranty :p
[EVO 4G General] roybotnik:
I purchased an evo for both me and my wife. A friend of mine did the same as well. It seemed like a good deal at the time and the phone seems to be good quality overall...

However, when messaging back and forth quickly, messages disappear from the thread and cannot be seen in any way. All that I receive is a notification. This has happened for all of us. Messages are also often received in the wrong order.

Would the situation be any better if I was using plain android instead of the buggy sense UI? It looks like the froyo rom is making good progress.. I'm going to try it, but if it's still as buggy as it is stock, Sprint will be getting 4 EVOs returned.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
Try another messaging app like handcent or chomp. You have choices.
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
No problems here, and I'm on my 2nd Android phone. Both have worked great with no problems such as yours.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Seems like more of a rant then a request for help. that being said, my family has 5 Evo's between us and we have had not one complaint with the SMS. possibly sprint service in the area? i know when i'm in smaller towns the sms seems to lag, almost like its stuck in queue somewhere before being sent to me.

good luck mate!
[EVO 4G General] awesomeindeed:
Use Handcent. Problem solved. The stock app is slow and sucks.
[EVO 4G General] sph33r:
If you hate it, go back to the iPhone where you obviously came from?

Now to try to find a question to answer within all that complaining....... hmmm... oh yes, I'm having issues with the SMS coming in odd orders occasionally. I did not ever experience this with my Hero.

So what I can derive from that is that this particular release of Sense, which is NOT Android, has a bug. You need to differentiate between the OS and the VERY deep reaching Sense UI that HTC puts on top.

I'd tell you to wait for the ROM development to pick up, but something tells me you're not a tinkerer. The iPhone is a fantastic phone.. you just can't tinker as much as you can with Android. So with Android you'll have choices but you'll have bugs. It's just something I come to expect.

It's like running Linux. Sure it's trendy to hate Microsoft, but holy hell there are a lot of problems with Linux apps in design, UI, and in general stability (Note, I didn't say Linux has problems.. I said apps. Because it's the crap on top of the underlying system I have complaints with). I still love it, I just have to approach it with an attitude that it's not going to be as polished as OS X, and it's not going to be as stable either.

Welcome to Open Source and the stuff people put out with it.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
After hearing everyone praise handcent I decided to give it a try myself and wow is it better. Choice is very nice
[EVO 4G General] roybotnik:
Edited to remove ranting, I'll give handcent a shot. Hopefully it doesn't lose random messages =(.
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
I've gotten some messages out of order, but that's about it.

If I try Handcent and somehow don't like it, is it easy to revert back to the original built-in messaging app?
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
Nevermind I realize it's an independent app. I just replaced my Messaging icon with the Handcent one on the homescreen.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
BTW, anyone using handcent have a problem sending MMS?
[EVO 4G General] afazel:
Just make sure you disable notifications in the stock app so you don't get double notifications. That's annoying.

Also, I haven't had any problems with MMS while using Handcent.
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
Thanks, I totally noticed that too. But it looks like if I disable notifications in the notification bar then it doesn't let me make sure it plays a sound.

Does handcent control that on its own so it doesn't matter if the sound is disabled on the stock messaging app?
[EVO 4G General] Jye75:
Handcent has its own notification settings.
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
Thanks, I turned off the messaging app notification and it still notified me when I got a text.
[EVO 4G General] prestonr83:
Yea I have that problem alot I usually use built in messaging for MMS and handcent for all other SMS. I never have a problem receiving MMS with handcent just sending.
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
I prefer chomp, and have had no issues. well maybe one, or two texts out of order. Like if the sender typed a "two page" text and sent, then sent a short text the short one might come in before the second half of the "two page" text.
[EVO 4G General] flexte:
that doesn't happen with my sms app but it does happen with my google mail from time to time.
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
I ran some tests and I can send over 3g it's only when wifi is enabled. So I did some research and found out sprint only sends MMS over their connections. The default messaging app will bypass wifi and use 3g to send mms. Handcent had patched this for the Hero.
[EVO 4G General] smarcin:
I'd like to put in a plug for ChompSMS. I hadn't used it before, but people were saying that it automatically resizes your pictures when sending MMS. Maybe this isn't a problem on the Evo, but it was on the Hero. I will occasionally get a text out of order if someone sends me a long one that is broken up into more than 2 messages. But, I really like it's interface better than Handcent, which I have also used. As far as I know, I have never had a text go missing when using Chomp.

Android is all about choice. It's really nice to have all these choices and these are FREE (as in beer). :D
[EVO 4G General] donatom3:
Just switched to Chomp no MMS problem over wifi and I actually like their icon better.

Have anyone succeeded to connect Desire in DIAG Mode?

I have tried almost everything, but no luck :(

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keith-rogers:
When you say 'diag mode' are you referring to using ADB from the Android SDK?

If so, yes I have. What you need to do is download the Android SDK for Windows (or Linux) depending on the Operating system that you're using.

Then get all the drivers for the USB sorted out.

To be able to connect to the phone using ADB you need to enable 'debugging mode'. To do this, do the following on your phone:

1. Bring the Menu up using the little arrow on the left.

2. Goto Settings.

3. Goto Applications.

4. Goto Development.

5. Tick 'USB Debugging'.

You should then be able to connect using ADB.

I dont think so, I suspect him want to got the QC diagnostic Mode, I'm try to work in this so!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sieempi:
Diag mode? Yes!

After investigating usb-brickness and kernel command lines that are passed out during boot, i found out that their flags can be changed by running

fastboot oem writeconfig 8 x0y00 (not sure if you need a s-offed device), where:

x0000 x=2 - diag enabled (eg. 20000)

00y00 y is a sum of these: 1-disable_uart3; 2-usb_h2w_sw; 4-disable_sdcard;

So, by combining them, we might get the following:

20700 : board_bravo.disable_uart3=1 board_bravo.usb_h2w_sw=1 board_bravo.disable_sdcard=1 diag.enabled=1 board_bravo.debug_uart=0w=0

20000 only diag.enabled=1 (plain diagnostic mode; not compatible with usb_h2w_sw=1)

00400 disable_sdcard=1

00200 usb_h2w_sw=1

20200 usb_h2w_sw=1 diag.enabled=1

After enabling Diag Mode, a new com port appeared in Device Management - HTC Diagnostic Interface

(COM18). I can successfully connect to it with QPST, PSAS, QXDM.

Additional information are welcomed. As you can see, I didn't figure out about board_bravo.debug_uart flag..

I attached a working diag driver I found out.

As well as could you give me some hints about how you verified parameters of fastboot oem writeconfig.

I tried the same stuff on HTC sapphire with ENG spl...command was running succesfully but nothing happend... I believe sapphire doesn't have diag mode (not sure for now??)........
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sieempi:
As I said, I was investigating USB-brickness and I noticed that it changes the values i got from fastboot oem readconfig. So I generated multiple bricks by flashing misc partition with random data/files (recovery, adb.exe, fastboot.exe, busybox, etc - binaries) and analyzed the config values. It was only a matter of time until I figured out the logic. Afterwards, I could easily tell where the flags were stored in misc (I didn't pay too much attention on this, though).

Yes, it was done on a GSM Desire.

From the phone screen, enter ##77647266488 then press Call

This is the programming screen, you can manually program using this code.

The firmware is a different mess.

It seems we are not able to dump a ROM from device, at least not that I have seen.

Why do you ask, because what Microsoft did is they have different build flags.

-Debug -Beta -Retail -Ship

From inside there, the Ship, has strict settings on it. One of those is that it cant dump the ROM.

So that is where we are at right now. I have a few ideas to try but I am not going to test for a few days.

We shall see though.

So that is what I have figured out so far.
