Brilliant advice. 30mins for mine and only £5.45. So wish I knew about him 3 weeks ago when I asked T-mobile to unlock my G1. £15 and still waiting.

Never mentioned the new database to him for mine.
[Captivate General] derrick206:
hey guys i havent had any problems with this phone until today, and it seems like these have both started happening at the same time..

but when i turn wifi on, it connects and then a few seconds later disconnects. and when i try to go to the marketplace it says server unavailable, please try again.

also i sometimes i cannot find webpages on the browser. any ideas whats up with this?
[Captivate General] derrick206:
hey guys, do any of you have a copy of the original setup.db file?

I'm pretty sure that is what is wrong with my phone..

when i was messing with mine, i messed up and changed the wrong thing with out noticing it before replacing it and now i can not access the marketplace or use wifi..

so if anyone has that file i can use i would really appreciate it.
[Captivate General] accinfo:
Do you have an application named Navizon?

If so delete it.

I don't think i have the original setup.db?

Explain? I have no idea what you're talking about I'm pretty noobie about android.

thanks for replying, but i got it to work.. i just went in to recovery mode and cleared the cache and its working great again..

Hey, I'm trying to NAND Unlock my HTC Evo and I came across a problem with the PC36 file. It gives me an error I'm assuming because I have the latest update that says "Main version is older". On top of this, I have a macbook and it seems I can't use simpleroot. Does anybody know of another method to nand unlock that wouldn't be too complicated? I'm quite the noob. Thanks in advance XDA and everyone else!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dreddge:
Hey dood, there are several threads on this. Since you are new ill point you in the right direction, but please try to use the search function next time.

Use SimpleRoot. It can be found under the development section.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
he said in his post he can't use simpleroot because he has a mac,

I think if you use unrevoked3 first then you can do this it will allow you to do everything from the phone you must use unrevoked3 first to get su priveledges. that you can search for.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
You should be able to use this to get a custom recovery

http://www.unrevoked.com/recovery/

Then do this to gain full root and nand unlock

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=732834

follw this very carefully, do just what it says and you should be good to go, this is the long way around but as you have a mac it is the only way i know how to do it. Somebody else may chime in if there is a better way.

The unrevoked site has an option for mac as you should see it for download there.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djlevy:
Ahhh, yeah the issue is I have 1.47.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
If you run unrevoked three then use that method from the video you should be able to get full root and nand unlocked. just did it on a spare evo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djlevy:
This may be considered a stupid question, but should I be downloading these files to my phone or just dropping them in the file as a disk drive?

the unrevoked you run from your computer, the others are dropped on the root of your sd card, i believe the instructions tell you exactly what to do, just do that verbatim and you will be fine
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bugmenever:
Hi all,

I read through the FAQ and newbie topic and couldn't really find any solutions. I know extremely little about android flashing, ROMS, etc as I had an iPhone before and only really did jailbreaking (2.21 +) and was spoiled by its simplicity.

I have an original MyTouch 3G (without the 3.5mm headphone jack. I rooted the device correctly it seems and flashed it with the rooted 1.6. However, when I put on 2.2, the phone asks me to touch the android to begin, but when I touch it, it turns white but doesn't do anything. I read that if you touch the four corners you can skip this process so after doing so, I wanted to sync it with my Google account. When I go to accounts, I don't see Google on there. All it tells me to do is set up an exchange server, which I don't believe is right.

Next, I thought this problem was because I hadn't flashed the Google apps yet (excuse my incorrect terminology). After doing so, I would click the marketplace and it would start to load something, but then just return to the home screen.

If someone could point me to the right firmware to use, or a fix to this issue I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

[Droid X Accessories] Breakthecycle2:
Hey guys,

Did anyone order the carbon fiber case? I want to know if it's that rubberized material, like the battery cover, G1, etc...
[Droid X Accessories] zanix:
The one from Verizon?

If so, I have it, and its a hard case, not rubberized
[Droid X Accessories] mezdup:
i think he meant the finish. is it slick on the back or rubberized?
[Droid X Accessories] zanix:
Now that I feel it again, it is a rubber back, but a very thin rubber. I can press my fingernail into it and it makes an impression. It feels more like plastic then rubber though. The carbon fiber design is imprinted in the rubber.
[Droid X Accessories] bagley:
Just to add my two cents, the quality of the case is pretty good. As mentioned before, it's more of a plastic feel. Hard rubber or softer plastic.

The case snaps together very securely and has plenty of room for the hdmi/usb/headphone jack.

I've got bigger fingers so the physical buttons on the side are a little difficult to press, but you can get used to it. Also, when touching the extreme sides of the screen, the case gets in the way a little.

All things said, I'd recommend the case.
[Droid X Accessories] zanix:
Yes, the case is cut very well and is secure when snapped into place
[Droid X Accessories] jaskru:
The x will not fit in the car dock with this case. The hard plastic case is an extremely tight squeeze but will work. I like how the carbon imitation case looks and feels. My two cents....
[Droid X Accessories] fonsecaj:
I got one a couple of days ago. To me it seems more like some sort of vinyl than rubber or hard plastic. It's got an ok grip, but isn't so grippy that it'll catch my pocket when I take it out, like actual rubber cases I used previously on iphones.

One thing I thought was funny, though... it's obviously not made of carbon fiber and that the pattern has just been stamped or molded. But, the box says "carbon fiber" and not "carbon fiber style" It actually said it in two places, I think. It'd be like something being labeled "leather" when it's actually leatherette or PVC. Not complaining, just think it's amusing.
[Droid X Accessories] mav3rick478:
It is carbon fiber, its just not embedded in the normal gel people are used to seeing on cars. Its a layer that is over a plastic case. Do you know how much it would cost to produce a true cf case or even a dry carbon fiber case? I know someone who works with composites and its a very tedious job, not to mention not very forgiving.
[Droid X Accessories] BFS1983:
There is a full carbon fiber case out there, but its not cheap. It'll set you back $119 just for the case.

Carbon Fiber also does not protect the phone from drops and scratches easily. I imagine that it's really good at not not breaking though, so if you get a bit of roid rage and want to take it out on your phone case, this is the one to get!

[Vibrant Android Development] andeeroid:
damn,.. you already answered to my stupid question.... sorry :D for wasting your time...anyways I've got few new questions!

After MIMO Ext 4 procedure is done...

1) What happens if you take out the external memory card after booting...

2) What happans if you lose the external memory card? Is the phone considered bricked then?

3) How do I reverse the MIMO Ext 4? (get rid of MIMO Ext4)

Anyways great info!!! I might actually try JM2 installation!!
[Vibrant Android Development] fykick:
1. Since your application data is now stored and ran from the sd card, your applications will go wonky, and any applications you try to install or reopen that have been close will not open.

2. No, if you lost the sd card, you can simply format another one, or use ROM manager and the clockwork recovery to reinstall your stock rom.

3. Rom manager or reflash original firmware with ODIN. But I recommend using Clockwork recovery to reinstall a nandroid backup found in the development section here, or an update.zip. As these methods are less intrusive an will give you less problems.

If I could track down a i897 phone file, I'd be all over this on my Captivate.

Yeah, I had captivate in my possession yesterday, and this exact method did not work for it. Of course it might would if I could of found the exact firmware for the captivate split into the three odin files, rather than the all in one click exe. But i've returned it since then, so I won't be able to look into that anymore.
[Vibrant Android Development] Croak:
I used a program called Universal Extractor to bust open that one-click file, but all it could extract were the non-binary files inside, about 300kb of .xml, .txt and script files, in the META-INF and system directory.

I don't get it.... Why is this a goid thing to move all of your data to your sd... ?

Have you figured out why you don't have data service?

This is good write up. There are some captivate owners looking to do the same. But we don't have the firmware package u have on the vibrant. I am sure someone will come up with it. However, No DATA is a problem. I need data service. I tether alot. I pretty much depend on it.

Its for the lag fix, but doesn't have the space limitations that the nand partition does.

[Vibrant Android Development] PJcastaldo:
Really, an ext part on the sd card is faster than the internal memory? K.. I know alot of people have bad lagg, but I havnt seen it. Buy thanx fot lettin me know.
[Vibrant Android Development] tissimo:
Its due to the I/O of the internal memory. IIIRC the internal is limited to sequential read/writes, but I guess the external isn't (and neither is nand).

[EVO 4G General] jerryparid:
Or a mods could have moved it because it doesn't belong in its old location.

Release Candidate CM6 would still be essentially be a daily build. There are still serious issues within CM6.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
What "serious" issues would these be? Other than lack of 4G (which is totally worthless, in my opinion), I see no problems with the latest build. Now that we have a fixed Market and Facebook sync I don't see any reason not to use it as a daily (even though I was using it since release). Cyanogen fixed the major Bluetooth and wifi issues, so what's still horribly wrong?

On all the nightlies I flash to my Evo, i was unable to access my sound settings, the default Browser would immediately crash upon startup, the market would constantly act up (the updated version included), and my widgets would break after every restart.

That probably only happened to me, but I'd still consider them pretty serious issues. Serious enough to nandroid back to Fresh 1.01 for now, at least.

Clearly, there are lots of GPIO_* macros undefined in gpio.c file.

Hello,

Well, I've been using customised ROM here on my Tattoo for almost a month.

No doubt I am not the only person who noticed that the signal indicator in baked ROM can only show 3G whereas the Sense UI ROM can have 3G and HSDPA.

Does it mean that these baked ROMs can not establish HSDPA connection ? Does 3rd ROM have relatively poor signal than HTC one?

The answer is NO, at least according my test:

View attachment 366318

In system status it clearly says HSDPA whereas it is 3G icon on notification area. So perhaps it's just because that H icon was reserved to HTC. Myth broke!

In other words, no signal issue with baked ROM at all! ;-)

Thank you to all the developers who baked those wonderful Tattoo ROMs.

Cheers,

Any chance sprint might be able to help? the phone seems to be on, no one has made any calls with it or otherwise used it so I'm pretty sure it's somewhere where I can find it.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TorxT3D:
i know windows mobile had software that could turn on gps and reply back to your other phone via sms its gps coordination... but the software had to be built into the rom so its not uninstallable.

ive been wondering if theres an app or similar for android.

just in case someone swipes my phone i'd like to be able to track it.

would be nice if a dev had this feature built into a rom so noone can disable or remove it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zonyl:
Sprint could help but won't (I have tried). Family locator needs sms verification with user of phone before it will activate. Unless you had installed an app to track it you don't have any options. Look on craigslist or ebay.

Next time use "wheres my droid" or some other such software. Unfortunately google thinks that having an app switch on gps is a privacy issue so they disabled that api in 2.x, so you are really out of luck even if you had software.

I have quick sshd installed on mine so hopefully will be able to remote in and run ase, delete files, etc.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captivate:
Sprint Family Locator will work. It doesn't require user authorization and it does not require the phone to have GPS turned on. Try it. The only thing it will do is send the phone a message saying that SFL has been activated (or the phone has been located via SFL).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dudewithnofood:
Finally got family locator to find my phone but it's giving me a 0.5 mile radius by some apartments complexes that i didn't go to yesterday. I lost it somewhere by a lake and I guess someone's found it and taken it home. I'm hoping they'll turn on the GPS antenna so I can get a more precise location.

Edit: I was under the impression that GPS needs to be turned on because CC told me it does. When i started the service it wasn't working properly and locating my phone so I really thought that GPS needs to be on. I tried it out on some other phones on my account today and it wasn't locating any of them so i called CC and they did some things over there and locator started working. I probably could have found it yesterday if locator worked properly.
