If he bought it off a mate i doubt he has a reciept, how often hae you gotten a reciept off a mate?

Then again what if OP did really nick it off a friend? not saying he has but what if?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rophaq:
agree.

Bought a G2 off a mate. Working fine for 3 weeks then dropped signal. Spoke to T Mobile they told me it was banned on the network. Due to insurance claim.

Is there any way of spoofing IMEI. (i know this can be done on Iphone etc:

this sound more like , if it's nicked, if the network operator tells you it's banned, once a phone it's declared lost or stolen, they'll fry it straight away.

same thing happend to me years ago with a nokia , i got from a shop on contract, within a couple of weeks it just stopped working. took it back to the shop, so he tried it on, ignoring the problem, i said ok, i'll call t-mobile and tell them then, he replied, no no wait i'll give you a new one, so he did. as told him i'm heading down to police station,he was ****ing himself. cheeky bas***d, this is a bonafied shop. hey when i checked the IMEI on the paperwok and the doggy phone, it was'nt the same.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tiznom:
This question has been asked before, but not answered. I'm posting it again in the hope that someone has figured it out. I want to view the full postal address of my contact, for example when addressing an envelope. I can view them on the computer in a web browser. On my Desire running Android 2.1 I only see part of the address. My only option is to click "View home address" which opens the map. That's not good enough, and because the addresses in my area are in a non-standard format the addresses fail to display. (Addresses here often are a name of a house or building, no number, so I need to copy the addresses exactly as I have them formatted). The question has been asked before here (xda-developers) and here (community.htc.com) with no valid answers so far. I know that when I use a standard USA address that is locatable by Google Maps, the address info is kept and displayed in the mapping program. This problem is limited to certain US and other countries' address formats that Google Maps won't resolve correctly. Anyone figure this out yet?

[HD2 General] kabuk1:
Lately I've been having an issue where my phone freezes if I try to close file explorer via the task manager from the home screen. I tried cleaning up my card with scandisk(which fixed the slowdowns I was having when viewing photos on the card), but the freezing problem persists. It freezes so bad that I have to pull the battery. One time I just let it sit to see if it would eventually correct itself, but it just sat there for like half an hour. It doesn't seem to matter which folder FE is open on, and I don't remember installing anything new around the time this started happening. I should mention I'm on the stock T-Mo rom(2.10) with the 2.10.50.28_2 radio. Also, it does NOT freeze when I close all the tasks via the FreeupRam tool in SKtools.

I know I've got a low post count but I swear I'm not a ppc noob. I can usually fix problems like this myself but this one has me utterly stumped. Have any of you had this problem and if so, how did you fix it? This is driving me nuts. I'm getting really sick of having to pry off my case to pull the damn battery several times a day.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
there are known freezing issues with file explorer, especially if you are using one of the file explorer extender cabs running around.

To avoid these freezeups, always make sure you leave file explorer in the "my device" spot instead of on the storage card.
[HD2 General] 808HD2:
well I have had my hd2 since it came out, and up till now everything was ok!! yesterday all of a sudden my screen is unresponsive to touch :-( but the hardware keys work...

I did a hard reset, and even updated the tmo firmware/rom but still the same...

It would sometimes work then it would be unresponsive :(, anyone have the same issues or anyone know how of a fix?

im on stock tmo rom, and used cht-1.8.5/cht editer/bsb tweaks and cht lock screen....
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
In BsB, there's a "tap time" option...turn that off if it's on, that is a common cause of this issue.
[HD2 General] 808HD2:
sirphunkee - yup, I did that before upgrading to the new tmo rom, it worked for awhile then back again.. then i just factory reset the phone and stuck on the setup wizard :-(
[HD2 General] 808HD2:
update - i went to tmobile and did a warrenty exchange so should get it nex week.. but now when i left tmobile my phone is back to normal, sometimes it would lock up and not unlock... but you think i would be able to exchange the phone for the samsung vibrant?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
If you're still in your 14-day buyer's remorse period then yes that should be possbile. If you're past that time already, then it would take some sweet talking on your part and a generous store manager to make that happen..but it's not unheard of.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Noob4Life:
Okay so I've read the guide that's stickied in this forum and I'm still having issues. First of all I bought my phone off eBay and it didn't come with any software, is there anything straight from HTC that i'll need software wise? Also I tried downloaded pimbackup from the guide and tried to run it but all I get is an error saying that it's not a valid win32 application, what's up with this? Quick replys would be appreciated seeing as I would like to get this done tonight. Thanks all
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wanwarlock:
if it says its not a valid win32 app it means that it needs to be copied to your pda

what do you mean by it does not have any software? it's similar to a pc/mac, you need to install softwre to fit your needs ie games etc.

what other issues do u have and which stickie guide did you read??
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Noob4Life:
Sorry for the lame thread guys but I figured it out. Thanks for the help warlock, oh and when i said it didn't come with software I was talking about the activesync software you get when you buy the phone new, it didn't come with that disk. I found an installer online though and it works great. Also I read the noob guide at the top of this section. Thanks again

5. Check the box for whether or not you want a caption below the icon.

6. Click the app that you changed the icon for earlier.

7. The app is added to the desktop.

I had that in a chat log.....

or you can go the hard way and edit .apk's, and push them to your phone.

Use gimp or irfanview or whatever photoediting software to resize them for your phone... 72x72 is what they are.

just put all your icons in a folder on your sd card and its pretty simple.

I updated to the cyanogen 2.1 rom (the newest fully stable one) and I haven't had any problems, and it's still working great other than the 3G.

It's what rogers does to people who dont update to their 911 update. They block unotherized devices. Call them and ask them to enable you data and ask them to remove you from the block list. Sometimes it takes a while for the system to find you and thats why you had your data for a week.

im having the exact same issue. did you ever figure it out. i just got the phone and everything was great then after a few days the 3g etc stopped working. i was messing with the apn settings and at the same time talking to fido. they reset it or something on there end and it started working. now a few days later and the same things happened again. its been off for a few days now. my radio version is 6.35.08.29 is that a problem with the 911 thing?

Hi blazinlow,

Were you able to get your data back? I'm also Fido customer using a rooted HTC Magic and suddenly today lost internet connectivity (no 3G or EDGE) after a week. I called Rogers and the CSR doesn't seem to know what I'm talking about as he can't even find my number. He did, however know about the 911 bug and the mandatory update but insisted that I call Fido as they have control over the network?!! :confused: I wonder if I would have to get the issue escalated to their Tier 2.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] blazinlow:
well you can try with fido i had no luck. i updated my phone and now have no issues aside from no custom rom and being stuck on 1.5 meaning no navigation
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kyle_l88:
I have FIDO as well and i have had my data connection dropped 3 times now. Im using a magic with 2.1. Every time that it happens I have to call in and get them to reset the connection on their end :/. Anyways they can't give me a straight answer on that either, its frusterating. What exactly is THE 911 update ? a radio update ? or firmware based.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paulheth:
Same issue - update?

Has anyone come up with a solution here. I've come across the same issue.

The phone worked fine on Rogers with no problem getting shut down, it is just now when I use a fido sim that we are getting the data shut down happening.

Unfortunately the 911 form provided above doesn't like my IEMI ("please enter a valid serial number") so I am left being not sure where to go next. A brief discussion with Fido tech support gave me the impression they don't have a clue how do anything other than a profile reset, which makes the problem go away for a few days.

A fall back to Android 1.5 is obviously not an option.

As I understand there may be a way to flash the base band and have an affect? Right now I am on base band 62.525.20.18H_3.22.20.17.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paulheth:
So after a long conversation wit Fido I have confirmed that they have no way (or perhaps interest) in utilizing the 911 waiver from Rogers and put invoking a 'stop reset' function.

They eventually fall back to the party line of, not our phone can't help you.

Again, anyone know if anything other than a fall back to ancient unusable versions of Android as a fix here?

Any help much appreciated.

Hi,

I have already tested few mail app ( the stock one, the message 1.0.0024 coming from HTC I think and touchdown)

I am looking for a free app which would be able to :

* retrieve mail from an exchange server, Touchdown and message are good . The stock app give me error message half of the time.

* set an automatic synchronisation on the inbox and on a selected lists of subfolder. Touchdown is ggod for that

* handle the inbox tree in a non totally stupid way ( stock app is ordering by name !!! and I can't figure out the order from message 1.0.0024 ... maybe by date of creation or depending on the age of the captain). Touchdown is good for that

* display correctly the html mail with array ( only touchdown does it even if it doesn't allow to reply to nice html mail .... it will put the mail in attachment !!)

* be quick. Touchdown is extremely slow. Maybe it has to do with the lag of the SGSbut it's definitely slower than the 2 other app ( but better looking)

* nice to have : handle also different mail account like hotmail

For the moment, Touchdown is the best choice but I can use everyday a mail app which can take 20 sec to open a mail and an other 20 to delete it.

Any other idea ?
