[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
There is simply no way of cheating here. The contract (or payment) is identified by the IMSI (SIM Card) - not the device (IMEI) - and the traffic is identified by the APNs you set (GPRS settings). The IMEI of the device is completely useless in that regard.

You cannot cheat - that easy.

Operators are sometimes linking web-applications to the IMEI identifying the device type to optimize services in a device specific (e.g. MMS) way.

Changing the IMEI is simply

illegal

very hard to do and you will not find any service that will do it for you, neither at XDA-developers nor at those sites that deal with SIM Unlocking. They have the best knowledge of how to deal with the encrypted areas that safeguard the operators settings linked to the HW of the device.

If you could succeed to "fake" the IMEI to be of another device-type, some services that depend on the correct evaluation of this (MMS, other services) mail fail on your device because they do not match the real needs of the device.

If operators detect bogus IMEIs in their network, they may simply refuse to serve this device and you cannot log into the network any longer.

Spend your efforts on something more useful than trying to cheat the operator.

ok for the simple fact of using my brain and knowing how any computer system works.... yes. yes there is a way to make ur phone appear to be another its just not an app, it has to do with someting alot deeper... but that thats all im saying it is possible but immoral im sure.
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
Thanks dude for the explanation, I think this guy wanted that us start discussing the "changing IMEI" topic :eek:.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
Anything is possible if you pay the right people. Knowledge how to change the encrypted block consistently is rare and kept secret as those guys build a business around it.

But changing the IMEI is so useless imho - why waste time doing so? Especially as it will not even help you to get free calls or data transfer.
[HTC Excalibur] fliparsenal:
i know what OP is getting at. its similar to tzones. just go on to your tmobile account and change the phone to an old one that uses tzones such as the razor, if that doesnt work try going to a store and asking for that service by showing them an old phone. after the service has been activated all you have to do is change your network settings (internet2.voicestream.com) it worked for me for years, but sadly moved on to android which uses a 3g network. good luck.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
Yeah - that's what I say:

you can configure services that are used on the network

but you cannot hide the device you are using from the network itself

Any messing around making things seem different than they are will get you strange behavior of application services - but it will not save you any money.
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
So, basically you have told him the secret :D. Does this save you money at all? or it doesn't matter.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
This an "APN" I talked about earlier. Operators have several for different intended services (e.g. internet), but they try to keep things simple and reduce the amount of APN recently (so finally you have only one).

Per APN (Access Point Name):

The IP routing may be restricted (e.g. only to the mail server)

Charging may be different (kb/$)

The use of certain APN is restricted to you user profile, i.e. not everyone can use any APN

Depending on how strict the operators are handling the last point and how close they observe the generated traffic per user you may occasionally be lucky to sneak through with your traffic.

Mind however that for all traffic the operators are logging the IMSI (SIM Card) that generates it - so also for prepaid cards it may suddenly happen that your money is gone for old bytes that have been found linked to your SIM.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...on-june-23rd-is-froyo-also-joining-the-party/

Google, Motorola, Verizon and Adobe are releasing the next generation of the droid on June 23rd with FroYo.

Couple this with the fact that a customer service rep said HTC are releasing FroYo on the 23rd of June it's seeming more and more likely that we will be seeing FroYo on the 23rd of June.
[Desire General] lukeyboymac:
bob hope and no hope (just guessing like)
[Desire General] neowlchaz:
my thoughts exactly. It really is clutching at straws. For one MOTOROLA are not HTC.
[Desire General] ZoZo2:
I don't follow your logic. This is the release of a new handset from Motorola, it's not a milestone in Froyo releases and certainly doesn't dictate (at least in the short term) what HTC will or will not do.
[Desire General] x01a4:
There are pretty decent froyo roms out there :)

No need to wait!
[Desire General] abc27:
Stock Android looks horrific. I can't live without HTC Sense and the Sense Widgets.
[Desire General] Nit3m4re:
Plus I would rather have a full working phone with FroYo after waiting for HTC than a custom rom with bits working here and there and having to press F5 on the roms thread every minute of the day in hope that something else has been fixed. Don't get me wrong, I am used to it with the HD2 and eventually, custom roms can be pretty awesome, I just feel that time is not right now with the desire.. I'm holding out on HTC for now :)
[Desire General] abc27:
Notice that Google and Adobe are announcing the next generation of the Moto Droid with FroYo.

Now what we can understand from this is that...

Motorola are releasing the successor to the Droid with FroYo

Adobe are releasing Flash 10.1 Final

Google are more than likely going to start proper OTA updates on the Nexus One

All of these are going to occur on the 23rd of June. Doesn't it seem a bit of an odd coincedence that a few weeks back we heard unconfirmed reports from HTC customer service that a FroYo release was to come on the 23rd of June?

It seems far too perfectly in sync to be a coincedence. Google are trying to stop device fragmentation right? Doesn't having its biggest hardware makers Motorola and HTC releasing FroYo on their devices along with Flash 10.1 being released on the same day sound like a start to defragmentation?
[Desire General] herghost:
However, HTC is not mention once in the whole story, I would like to see it, but I think Honduras have a better chance of winning the world cup ;)
[Desire General] XDA mark:
Lets hope that we havr froyo on the 23rd!:)
[Desire General] abc27:
Oh silly me how did I miss that :rolleyes:

Did you even read my reasoning for as to why?
[Desire General] oursoul:
twentythree
[Desire General] XDA mark:
There is some logic in this indeed.

It would be cool: a global Froyo launch over multiple devices. Better then slowly updating each device over a 6-12 month period.

The Android Army is marching in on the 23rd! One day before the iPhone 4 is released. Sounds typical Google.
[Desire General] Nekromantik:
I think there is straw clutching too.

HTC have nothing confirmed, for all we know the announcement by Motorolla is that the new Droid handsets will run Froyo and thats all. And a release date for handsets.
[Desire General] abc27:
But why the 23rd of June? The day before the release of iPhone 4?
[Desire General] choccy31:
So they can rub it in to all the iphone 4 owners about how great flash will be maybe?
[Desire General] rovex:
I think its probable a froyo phone or update will be out on the 23rd, but im not remotely convinced it will be on an HTC device then. If it is, great!, If not then meh.. i'll wait a bit longer.
[Desire General] XDA mark:
And has nothing in history ever changed? There is a first time for everything, including HTC bringing an update fast. If you are looking at the Hero: that was a totally different situation IMO. Froyo is much needed for the Desire while eclair for the Hero was not so big. Flash wants to be on as much possible devies as fast as possible. Google wants a big Froyo launch, which will have a much bigger impact than slow, unnoticed Froyo updates.

I am not sure of anything, bit I do think that the '23rd rumor' is possible. We will see.
[Desire General] abc27:
The Hero was their first Android device with Sense UI. The Desire is not and they have already seen what happens when they delay an update too long.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] csellebrecht:
Anyone else have swype expire on them again?

Is it available for purchase yet?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ramseyja:
1. yes

2. no

pro tip: you can find it on the various interwebs, or as i heard it is available to download a new beta directly from swype's website. try here beta.swype.com. my internet at work is being slow, or i would try and find a link. or there is a swype thread on xda in the android app section.

posted in the app section for eris: anyhub.net/file/swype-hvga-1.56-licensed.apk

disclaimer: i got in before for the swype beta program, so they just email me new versions, so i hadn't had to go search for one.

edit: swype website is not working, at least for me, they re opened their beta today, likely to much for their servers.

edit 2: feeling helpful
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] csellebrecht:
Thanks so much..Yes I tried to register for the beta today but the website is not doing good..

Thanks so much!
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] roirraW "edor" ehT:
They advertised that a new public beta would be released today but if the website doesn't show it yet go ahead and sign up for the beta invite because the imminent public beta they are inviting at least new registers almost immediately. It took less than 12 hours for me to get invited after I registered yesterday. I'd share the apk but it requires your invite info to get it working. Try registering, even if you registered before.

FYI I typed this with the new beta.

Edit 2: guess I should read the previous replies in full first. LOL!

so im new to the root thing please dont make fun ha. So now that i have rooted and am running ivan... if i put themes on my phone they wont lag like they did with the ota? Also do i still need to go through like ahome or something in order to run the theme? thanks for the help
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] droidkevlar:
If the theme says you have to use ahome or something, then yes you do, but ones like mine, which are MetaMorphs, you just apply them via the MetaMorph app and it makes it perm on your phone. Other types of themes are flash updates, again, making it perm on your phone. Major diff on MM and flash themes are MM only affects the pngs, where flash updates changes the whole apk so you could lose custom stuff you did to it before.

Just make sure you NAND before applying anything just on the off chance you dont like it or it messes your phone up.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] fenwaynomar45:
I cant find many themes for metamorph any suggestions where to find?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] droidkevlar:
There are 2 I have posted here that I know work for CM builds and Sprint Ports. As for others, look in the Hero thread. There are tons of them there that shold work as well. Trial and error is what I did to find out which ones worked for me and which ones didnt.

reinsert your sdcard, I have issues where the sdcard doesn't sit properly. This is assuming your using a2sd
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
i have a few times, same thing keeps happening, is there anything else I can try before I chalk it up to hardware malfunction and send it in to get a new one.... i reaallly dont want to do that

im also tried different sd card, and none of them have worked.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
Well..... I wouldn't consider it to be a hardware malfunction yet.

1. Have you tried a non-apps2sd rom, like Stock Froyo

2. Have you tried completely reformatting your SD card on your desktop, while using a MicroSD to SD to USB converter or something of that sort. You'll need to delete all the partitions as you won't be able to see the EXT partiton in explorer, use disk manager

3. Have you tried using a different SD card?

4. Maybe you should completely wipe all the device in fastboot, maybe something is screwy, maybe even reinstall your recovery image

Try these things, then come back with results. We can diagnose issues after some of these troubleshooting techniques
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
i haven't tried formatting the card, but i have tried other cards with the update.zip flash, do you have a link to the stock froyo file

i think the problem is that the one i downloaded wasnt legit, and i have wiped the device in fastboot, the problem is that something is wrong with the touch screen, when it relaods from rebooting, it will get to the touch the android welcome screen and wont register any touch screen input, only volume up/down, trackball, and power button
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
okay, i tried formatting the sd card, and putting the update.zip file on it, and the same error occurred, when i tried to flash in recovery mode.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
any update on what i can do to fix this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
Flash the original recovery image. You can find it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=614057

You would do this through fastboot. Its easy, try that out
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
how do you do it through fastboot, i've only flashed through recovery
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
Put the img file on your sdcard, boot into fastboot, it should automatically check for the image and you should get a prompt asking for you to continue installing the image
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ted926:
no luck, it doesnt search for the image. When i enter fastboot, it just shows four options: bootloader, reboot, reboot bootloader, and power down
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
Then I would say something is faulting with your SD Card or your SDcard slot. I would try and take a very small ammount of rubbing alcohol and a q-tip to the contacts of your SD card, but there is no way to get into the slot without damaging it. If you have to do a warranty replacement just state that yes your device is bootloader unlocked but you're a developer and it is necessary to unlock in order to better serve the android platform

hi dears,

I am new to such a forum and I want to ask you how I can fix a trouble that probably many of you have had with windows mobile 6.5

I purchased an htc touch diamond 2 equipped with a 1ghz marvell pxa310 processor and with windows mobile 6.5

The problem I am experiencing with such a device is that any third party software I am trying to launch is stopping with an error message stating the certificate is not trusted.

I just upgraded the sdk certificates with the three new versions that are going to expire on 2015 and they are: privileged, unprivileged and failsafe.

This however did not solve the certificate error message.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mister B:
A diamond 2 (Topaz) would of come with Qualcomm MSM7200A 528MHz processor !
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mikmak80:
Hi, which processor I got has very small significance...do you know how I can run 3rd party software on this windows mobile 6.5 device?

I searched the web for a solution and the new sdk certificates did not solve the issue.

Is there any tool which has the capibility to re-sign the exucutables with the new certificates I just installed?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mister B:
It has large significance as many chinese copies list the 1Ghz processor you mentioned & have problems installing software !

What software are you installing & what ROM build is on your device ?

You could take a look at this thread:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=506289

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mikmak80:
hi, thank you for the link.

I tried the secutirty policies conteined in but they did not change anything.

I am just spending two days on this device and I am out of luck...

I tried changing different security policies before the 01_Update_Security_Policies cab file and no one of them have sorted any good result.

I found a good reg editor in the cd supplied in the box, it worked fine to do some adjustments but just like I have sayd no new security policy did solve the 3rd party software issue.

Oh well...I am trying to launch some powervr demos like the fur one and trying to run glbenchmark.

The rom version I got built in is:

R 3.43.25.19

G 61.20t.25.10u

D 1.39.47382

The phone is a chinese version equipped with a marvell pxa310 processor running at 1ghz.

I think I can not do anything more...if someone has any idea I would be so happy to hear it.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mikmak80:
huh! I solved the issue...

the problem was not related to security policies that were preventing the execution of certain applications...it was that the error message was too generic and this let me think in wrong direction.

I had to install a proper gl es driver.

I think that some people could benefit from it...is there the chance to upload such a driver?
