i have to call bs on this. 13 yrs x 12 months a year= 156 bills. doing the math, you claim to have 149 incorrect bills? Hmm. aside from the regulatory programs fees and taxes which are subject to change, what else could have caused your bills discrepencies 149 times? user error? you think tmo has a long hold? att, sprint, verizon have longer holds than tmo on average.
[HD2 General] ruthusk8r:
can confirm this does work. i have the prefered shadow web for $5 :D

edit: you don't even have to swap sims into "phone" first device, just change the phone online through mytmodotcom, and it'll let you select features based on the phone you choose. the phone will change back to what you're using within a couple of days, but it doesnt really matter as long as the feature(s) are already added.

No more t-zones.... looks like the server "flipped a switch", or the severs were upgraded overthe weekend. (received a strange message that changes to the internet hae been made).

On the bright side, as a loyal customer they let us keep the intenet for

$20/ea a month.
[HD2 General] jam master jay:
TZones working again in so cal! No changes to APN

Silly tmo, trix are for kids! :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
lol walnut?

Reading the terms and conditions of your service contract would reveal that smart phones (you know the HD2 for example) are not eligible for T-zones or web to go....

Been a t-mobile customer for 7 years this coming Dec

Not only have I had a great experience every time I have needed to call CS. I rarely ever have to call them to begin with. I can probably count the number of times I have needed to call them on 1.5 hands lol

Currently on an HD2 with grandfathered

1000min Preferred Get More $39.99

Unlimited messaging $9.99

Unlimited VPN Internet $19.99

and T-Mobile @home "VOIP Service"

Unlimited for $15.00

May be worth my while to call them up again and see if there are any new preferred customer discounts. While what I have was a great deal years ago when I got it. It's now matching what they offer non contract customers.
[HD2 General] clauswl:
I have been with them since before the voicestream merger (about 97/98).

Besides having a few issues in the beginning, they have been very good.

They expanded their towers quite a bit since then.
[HD2 General] sykozylot:
My first HD2's screen froze. I chatted online, after after about half an hour they issued a replacement phone to be sent out to me. I received that, and it wouldn't boot at all, no matter what spl/rom/radio. I chatted with customer support online, and they're sending me yet another one. Was quick and painless. Let's just hope this next phone works.
[HD2 General] ManyPearTree:
I once had an issue with my 3g not working. I called them up once using an Indian accent and they informed me that the remedy to the problem was to hard rese my phone. I called back again without an accent and told me that I'd have tosend it in for repair..
[HD2 General] bgtvfr:
hey guy what do you got to say about the tmo hd2 always getting stuck my sister already gotten 3 hd2 replacements and they still get stuck when the phone sleep all they do is credit her with minutes is she stuck with this phone till she buy another thanks...
[HD2 General] HTC HD2 MAN:
try getting a 16gb micro sd card class 4. the sd card that come with it seems to be to slow for the hd2. but keep that sd card though it will pretty much work on other phones, but not the hd2. it will just make it freeze/lag
[HD2 General] bgtvfr:
thanx ill report back

Awesom CS, they are helpfull, never had a issue with them till date
[HD2 General] wazmo:
I can't complain about T-Mobile's service..

At least they put out two updates for the HD2, which is way better than what Samsung has done with their Android sets.

I returned my first HD2 because of the initial bugs. I picked it back up after the first update and couldn't have been more happier-and the last update has been damn solid.
[HD2 General] bodyman:
I have NEVER had a problem with anything dealing with T-mobile. Everytime I have called and talked to someone, they have always been friendly and helpful. It is best to talk to the smartphone department, and I have given the reps there things about the phones I have owned that they didn't even know.

They may be #4 in the US market, but they are #1 in my book!!!

I always try to get people to come to t-mobile because I am so happy with their work.... hmmm maybe I should get a commission then lol
[HD2 General] soccerman77:
TMobile Customer Services is horrible.. They changed their CSC hours, so the last two times I called I have been on hold for 45 Minutes, then again 57 minutes.

Currently they added a extra line on my new bill and I am on hold now and its been 41 minutes.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] borjus86:
Good work :-)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
this is the root cause:

Does the file exist? I dont know what it means by ".xml extension required"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] prophetjinn:
*facepalm*
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] djmcnz:
I'm not sure but:

At boot the system could actually be skipping the twframework files if they contain duplicate information to an already loaded framework.

So, a suggestion is to move the twframeworks to a higher priority in the bootclasspath by including them earlier in the path. Not too early mind... and you may actually find this then breaks something else. If you have a Galaxy S kernel you could check the order they use.

It may not work at all but you could try:

export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:[COLOR="Red"]/system/framework/twframework.jar[/COLOR]:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar

This may just boot loop of course... if it does, move the twframework one to the next lowest priority in bootclasspath.

You need to logcat the boot though, whatever you do, to establish if the framework loads or if it's rejected and if it does load, does it all load.

That logcat above indicates to me that the necessary hooks in the framework weren't available to the app.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] natz:
Froyo?

it possible to support with Froyo?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bewA:
as far as i know from playing with trying to get the HTC Sense framework loading you have to put the twframework before framework.jar:)

is there a twframework.apk file? is it might be looking for resources in that apk which aren't in the app you are trying to run.

as to how to make sure that frameworkapk is loaded i'm not sure.

You may need to get someone to integrate the framework into the app directly.

These are similar problems we encountered when trying to port the FM radio app to stock froyo.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] natz:
Froyo

it support to froyo?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] craigacgomez:
Why the same question twice?? We can talk Froyo compatibility after there is some success...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mad_vtak:
since you have a system dump, maybe you can get the dialer pad.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] supergodie:
Replacing the framework.jar from Galaxy S to Nexus One could be the ListView effect on the components, like the samsung ? :confused:

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] DToX69:
I think the media player in the vibrant is much nicer than stock android so I have no idea who wouldn't want that one :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] boodies:
yes the media player is really nice. as well as the camera with touch to focus. maybe those can also be moved over.
[HD2 General] Mekismo:
Hi, apologies if this has been asked before, i search but couldn't find anything.

Recently I have been having problems with my HD2 when using the browser mostly, i will be loading a page and the connection icon at the top of the screen will go from saying "H" in the box and to the right the signal bar with a "H" then it will go to 3G then it will suddenly cut off and some arrows appear as if i have lost connection all together, after about 5-10 seconds it will go back to H or 3G then the webpage will continue to load. This happens every few minutes or so.

Watching youtube or streaming video's works fine though with no issues.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
i have been trying for several months now with nearly a hundred micro-sd cards on a dozen computers and i cannot seem to do it. i cannot take it anymore. i am offering either a trade(one of my sdcards for one that has already been used as a goldcard and is currently a goldcard) if you have created a goldcard and are willing to ship it to me in exchange for an 8GBclass 2(samsung or sandisk) or a 4GB class 4(PNY) or a 2GB kingston then please let me know.

or i can paypal you some money and you can ship me a pre-made goldcard.

i have a mT3G with a perfected SPL on a 32b board(thought i was lucky when i saw 32b pop up)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
It might help if you explain where you are having problems?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
i got the CID fine, i got the goldcard.img fine, the problem is when i use hxd to edit the card. it allows me to paste write the hex to the first 17 blocks but when i remove card from computer and put it back in then it has to be formatted. i know it has to be FAT32 so i'm not sure what i am doing wrong.

ps i am running hxd as administrator, currently on a vista x32 machine
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
And are you selecting the physical or logical tab? You should be copying the img data to the physical tab of your removable media.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Prowler_gr:
Try the Goldcard tool:

(replace hxxp with http to get the working link)

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stu-k:
Thanks! I been tring for a week to make one and that worked! Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Prowler_gr:
Glad I could help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Mr Bill Florida:
Also, make sure you format the card in the phone. I purchased a 2gb Kingston from comp usa and that is the only one I ever had to use. Other sd cards are hit and miss.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
i have formatted from the phone, as well as from the computer. i will have to try out this other goldcard app, if it works then awesome and i can save some money(even though i have a bunch of extra sd cards now)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
so i got home and tried the app on my vista 32-bit machine, with the app i can mount the sdcard after it claims to have made a goldcard, but when i try to flash the file from the amon_ra thread(fix perfected SPL) it can't seem to find the SAPPIMG.zip file in the bootloader. not sure at this point what i am doing wrong, i have the 1.33.0007 SPL which i have seen is more difficult but people have gotten it to work
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stu-k:
You have to rename the sappimg.zip to sappimg.apk
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] adavis159:
It's no longer necessary to use the goldcard method to root an original (32b) mytouch

I would post a link to new instructions but I'm apparently not worthy of posting external links yet, so search google for "How To: Root the HTC MyTouch 3G | TheUnlockr" (in quotes) it should come up with an article from 04-26-2010

basically what you do is downgrade to stock android 1.5, then use flashrec to exploit a bug in 1.5 that lets you install a custom recovery (like amon-ra's recovery) and then installed a rooted rom from there

Just so you know, this doesn't replace the perfected SPL, so you will have to do that eventually if you want to be able to flash and boot images using the fastboot SDK tool (not necessary for rooting the phone, but nice to have)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Prowler_gr:
It is very important to format the sd card as fat32 (and not the default fat), otherwise the bootloader will not be able to pick up any files (goldcard or not).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
that seems wrong, i need to change the SPL and an apk is not going to do that for me(without root)

you can't downgrade until you get a non-perfected SPL on your phone(1.33.0007 is a troublesome one)

i know i am formatting as FAT32 this is standard with all phones we hack around here. tried using the phone and the computer to format as FAT32 and still no go
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] adavis159:
there must be some t-mobile mytouches that shipped with non-perfected SPLs then, because that guide worked for me. what is the point of a rooting guide that required the phone to already be rooted?

have you actually tried downgrading to 1.5, or are you just assuming it won't work?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tubaking182:
I don't assume anything on the phones, I have deffinately tried several times. Yes some shipped with non-perfected SPLs and some shipped with perfected SPLs, luck of the draw
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] stu-k:
Sorry your right, I just checked the goldcard i made and i did leave it sappIMG.zip. I changed so many things to try and get it to work!

But I had no probs with that goldcard maker program.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
I ran into this problem before too. I could not create a goldcard with vista 32bit at all. I tried like 6 different cards all different sizes and it wouldn't work. I used Run as administrator mode, compatibility mode, etc. It would not work.

Yet I tried it on a Windows XP sp2 machine with a 2gb Toshiba card and it work perfectly the first time. Can't explain it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheChemist187:
What exactly is a goldcard, I am unfamiliar with this and would like to know. Can someone please explain to me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] SHOOTEMUP2.0:
In all the directions i read it said to use the reverse tool and put both your cid and the reverse cid in the goldcard. When i went to the site for the free gold card their was only one line to put your cid in. I thought that the goldcard machine would reverse it for me. I was wrong. you still need to use the reverse cid tool.

Hi all,

I have just switched from the HD2 to the MT3G Slide and want to root the phone.

I knew how to do all the stuff on the HD2 from reading but cannot find any information here. The sticky placed on the top isn't much help because I know you need to use the Android SDK tool but I do not know how to set that up. & when I try to use the command line I cannot type in it. Please can someone give me some help on how to do this so I can get started on rooting my phone.

Thanks for reading!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
you claim you read the sticky but yet if you had you would have seen the link on the first page i believe that tells you to get sdk from [link] and then on that page there is a link that says setting up SDK on your [OS] computer. then just follow the steps in there(which is really more like download file and double click setup) after that you can open up a terminal/console/cmd and type in cd \path to sdk\tools

if you are on mac or linux(unlikely since you can't read or search) you would type in

cd /path/to/sdk/tools notice how the slash between directories(folders) is the other way around

then follow the directions in the root thread(incredibly difficult i know but you should still try to do this part on your own)
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlacsamana1989:
Okay I have downloaded all of the Android SDK already. I have read it but my issue is when I try to type in the command it will not let me type. I also read that Anroid SDK is for xp & vista only and that windows 7 was not listed, so it this my issue? The command line you speak of is the one with the SDK tools and not the acutal windows CMD line?

I have followed everything to the line but still cannot seem to get this to work.

and to be clear I did read and there is nothing on there that states you need to have SDK to root the MT3GS. It says to download the slide_root
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
what operating system are you doing this on? that would be more helpful so i could tell you how to set this up correctly
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlacsamana1989:
windows 7. I have android SDK and I have downloaded the 2.1 Android pack.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
if you are using windows 7 x64(very likely) then you cannot use that computer and you should try using ubuntu(same as using mac for 99% of the steps and there is a thread in q and a talking about this right now) or setting up a virtual machine and installing xp and using that to hack your phone. virtual machines are easy to setup and use if you can use virtualbox
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlacsamana1989:
download virtual box right now. will that come with xp installed on it or would I need to download that onto it?

thanks for all of your help.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
you will need to get an xp install cd or iso to install xp on it. if you have any friends with xp install disks or you can find one online and use it as a trial(no key=no activation=30 day trial) then you can use it for a day and root with that.

disclaimer: i suggest totally legal versions of windows xp, any install disk you download or get illegally is your fault when the FBI/Bill Gates comes to the door
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0man:
Instead of suggesting that he commits a felony why don't you tell him to use Ubuntu in the virtual machine? It'll take a little longer but it's less likely he'll be fined.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
i didn't say commit a felony, and if you are going to use ubuntu then you don't need a virtual box(dumbass) you can use a live cd. i have been told by microsoft on MANY occasions that if you have a friend with XP install disks then you may use those, as well as the fact that installing it for one day in a virtual box is not illegal if you are not using a cracked key/re-used key, you can choose not to use a key and it is a temporary install for yourself to use either until you get a key, or the 30 days is up. much like you can buy vista/7 and install a different version if you like, but you will have to uninstall it and reinstall using the version i bought a key for once the trial has expired. read up and do your homework before you jump down someone's throat, it makes you look like an ass when i have to come back in here and teach you what a computer is

Installing Drivers

Plug in your phone through USB and DO NOT MOUNT IT!!!!!

Your computer should see a new device and try to install Android 1.0 driver (If it doesnt, scroll down to the "Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB" section)

Let it load

Once it cant find them select "Install drivers from my pc"

The drivers you need are in the Android SDK 1.5r2 folder (C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver)

Depending on your OS pick x86 or amd64

You ADB Android Device should now be installed! Good Job

When I do this part it doesn't find the ABD driver but it does not have anywhere to install drivers from my pc at all on my windows 7

edit: found where to go to add the usb drivers but when I select the folder all I get is "windows cannot find driver software on your pc"

edit 2: Found out what driver I needed, thanks for the guide source :) going to try to root this thing finally
