[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TakoLuffer:
What exactly are you asking.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eugene373:
So far the only people I know of, that can unlock this Phone is T-Mobile. Also, you must have an account in good standings & be a customer longer than 3 months..
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendogg41:
What, really? So, I can't just buy one from, anywhere, and go use it? I'm new to this whole unlocking thing (CDMA background, and I work for a CDMA carrier), so I'm not really sure how the unlocking process even works. I guess that means I'd be much better served purchasing one that is already unlocked?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TakoLuffer:
Well you can ask them lol but yah Check local listings new mytouch slides are only 300 and get them unlocked idk XD sorry
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendogg41:
I'm sorry, I don't understand what your post says. The MyTouch Slide is significantly more than $300 new. It was posted above that they can't be unlocked. Are you stating that infact isn't true, and they can be?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krolla03:
unlocking works the say way it does for CDMA as it does with GSM. The only difference is instead of having to take my GSM phone to my carrier (or call them) to have my ESN number changed to my new unlocked phone like i would have to do with a CDMA phone. I can just pop my SIM card into my new unlocked GSM phone.

Even if you work for a CDMA carrier you should know that. If you work for any cell phone carrier you should know that
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendogg41:
I understand the idea behind being able to take my sim card out of one GSM phone, and put it into another. The network looks for the info on your sim, not your ESN/MEID. And honestly, the only carriers that 'unlock' any CDMA phones currently are a couple of the pre-paids (MetroPCS & Cricket) as far as I know. You can't take a Verizon phone to Sprint, or visa versa. I work for a MetroPCS retailer, I know all about flashing CDMA phones to the MetroPCS network, and it's alot more than simply opening it up to be able to be used with anybody. Not to mention needing to use a 3rd-party flashing software that will flash Metro info to the device, as well as extract the MEID from the handset and add it to the MetroPCS database so the MetroPCS activation system will recognize it as a usable handset. So, it's really not a fair comparison.

Regardless, it still leaves my question unanswered. I've never dealt with GSM phones outside of simply buying a new one at the AT&T store. Being able to 'unlock' it to use with any carrier is a new idea to me. So, instead of everybody telling me I'm stupid and that I should know how it works, can ANYBODY point me in the direction of an explanation of what it takes to unlock a GSM phone, what changes need to be made, and why a MyTouch Slide is special WRT it not being able to be unlocked?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
Im with att everything works perfectly on my slide
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendogg41:
Might I ask how you got yours unlocked?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
I got mine unlocked from theremoteunlocker.com

Gsm phones are locked via its hardware just like how when you use your pc the bios is software interlayed into your mobo so they could lock it if they wanted to only accept the types of processors they accept e.g tmobile locked their phone (the mobo) to only accept the tmobile simcard (the processor) the unlock code is a delevoper or admin unlock code that removes the simcard lock so you can use any simcard on it
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendogg41:
Got it, I just figured that out from reading the website that you said you used. SIGNIFICANTLY easier task than 'unlocking' a CDMA handset. I've already sent them an email, if I can infact get one unlocked, I'll be buying one this week. Thanks!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
Yep best phone have trumps iphone
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonderrick:
well where did u get urs unlocked from
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ward360:
Look around on tmobiles website, the have the conditions for giving you a unlock code posted. If you meet the conditions they will email you the unlock code.

I did it with my slide, I called them Friday and they emailed me a unlock code by Monday. Free and easy.

Found the URL. http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm51885.xml

There you go...
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
I'm assuming by perfect you're not including 3G since the slide isn't set or rather, doesn't contain the correct radio module to use AT&T's 3G band. Or does it and we're being lied to by the carriers (no surprise there) hmm...:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Croak:
http://galaxys.bell.ca/?INT=MOB_shop_home_BAN_GalaxyS_20100629_lm_all

Ain't the same as the T-Mobile US Vibrant with a different radio.

Looks to have a FFC, the three button layout, and a black bezel. An I9000 NAM, in other words. Plus this little tidbit is on their feature list:

Still no word on internal memory, but I'm guessing it'll have at least 8mb, and will likely be almost free of bloat and carrier restricting.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
WOW 8MB! How can they achieve such a mighty feat! Seriously, how.... android would explode.:p

Anyways. Yes it would be nice to have this one instead of the regular i9000. However, this one will be sim locked (don't know the difficulties of unlocking on bell's phones).

Doubt it. Every carrier on earth likes to shove their crap onto their phones. But maybe Bell's different.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Croak:
Telus and Bell both are very very light on branding ****.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeco:
I can't wait for the pricing information but my guess is the typical 199.99 (though I still hope it turns out to be less than that). I also hope this version isn't plagued by the issues that some of the other galaxy S handsets enjoy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
LMAO "exclusive" OMG another Iphone like marketing campaign :rolleyes: "face to face chat only available in iphone" ,... whatever... ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i don't want to deal with unlocking, so i ordered the international version instead.

and 2, i prefer the 16GB version as it is more special, the 8GB is all on the streets, almost any SGS owner i see on the street has a 8GB instead of 16GB model :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
Is it confirmed it's only the 8gb? T-mobile's vibrant is the 16gb. But I agree with you.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stillriza:
off all carriers, i'm surprised bell is getting it. I woulda thought telus would nab it for sure since they atm have the best android phones..

i've been watching this phone for a while.. but i'm locked in a contract with rogers.. so hoping rogers gets it shortly after.

and yes, it will most likely be sim locked.

there isnt any physical difference between an 8gb and 16gb version right? what makes it 'look' more special?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
No one said it "looked" more special. It IS more special:D I'm using my 16gb as video recording space.... big difference. Who doesn't like having double the storage for crap? If you don't use that much space, then it means very little.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ghostly00:
its gonna be $600 without contract according to a very reliable blog i go to.

I think they are trying to compete directly with the iphone which would be around the same price as well.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ash_r88:
Hi all. I'm new on this forum and have recently had my new phone stolen from me. I decided to blow the dust off the XDA IIS and have spent the last few days on here fiddling with it.

I ordered a new 4gb memory card. It is 4GB Micro SD inside a SD adapter. and works perfectly in the PC. I also have an old mi nin SD 512 inside an SD adapter and this works. I 've spent hours reading the forum and can't find a solution. I apologise if this has allready been asked but does anyone have any suggestions?

Its an XDA IIS and I have tried numerous windows installations on the phone with the same result. It is now running WM 6.5.3

Thankyou in avdance...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
as a matter of facts, it has been asked dozens of times already. but still:

4gb is the boarderline size for sd cards (sd, mini-sd, micro-sd doesn't matter).

4gb is available as an sd1.0 card (standard sd), and also as sd2.0 card (sdhc). the sdhc standard is not compatible with the blueangel.

or, in layman's terms:

every sd card of 2gb or less capacity works

every sd card of 8gb or more capacity doesn't work

for 4gb cards you have to look out, so you don't accidently buy an sdhc card, kingston and transcend have good standard 4gb cards.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ash_r88:
Thanks for your reply. So basically it should work? I tried to make sure I didnt buy SDHC and it doesn't say it on the card. Would you say that the card more than likeley is SDHC?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
what brand and model is it?

but afaik all micro sd cards of 4gb are sdhc, there are very few normal size 4 gb sd cards, namely kingston and transcend, but the majority of 4gb cards is sdhc and therefor incompatible.

[Android Apps and Games] fragger505:
I didn't know whether to put this in the "Android Software Development" forum or this one but does anyone know of an app that can preform reverse tether (with the help of tweaking the computers network) via USB and at the same time tether via WiFi.

ie: The phone will use the computer's internet via USB and then allow other devices to connect to the phone via WiFi and use the original computers internet. Basically turning the phone into a mini-router.

I don't know if this would even be possible. Seems like there would be a lot of data clutter. But I have seen apps out there that can preform reverse tether via WiFi on an ad hoc network.

I assume that if I can get at least the USB reverse tethering to work. I'd be able to use Froyo's built in WiFi tethering also assuming it uses the computers network and not default to 3G.

And the reason for even needing this app?

Is because 20Mbs > 3Mbs.

hello

I'm having a problem of synchronization between my HD2 and my exchange server 2010.

ex 2010 also synchronizes the sms.

Unfortunately, when I use a rom that uses SMS messaging HTC, nothing syncs.

I tried the rom NRG uses Windows Mail, everything syncs without problems.

but I do not wish to use a rom WWE Daily, I'm french.

Have you:

An idea to solve the problem? or how else could deliver the mail by default WM on a rom style artemis?

thank you
[EVO 4G General] UrbanMuppet:
Has anyone elses USB Port broke?

Mine won't charge anymore, it wiggles like crazy. It sucks that I just rooted. I'm unrooting now so I can bring it into Sprint. They said if it's a Warranty issue they will replace it for free. I have just heard horror stories about the build quality and screens getting worst, more light leakage and screen separation. I have minor light leakage, but no screen separation.

If I do a NAND backup, reroot the new phone and then install the backup, will it work or will it be tied to hardware?

EDIT: Before it was charging, now it isn't. Hopefully I can connect it to my PC so I can unroot it. :(
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
I have the same issue with the charging/USB cord that came with the phone. The spare micro USB cord that I keep at work isn't like this, however. Before you replace the phone, make sure it isn't the cord.
[EVO 4G General] UrbanMuppet:
I unrooted it, found the stock rom in zip form and moved it to the SD card. It still has my custom name instead of sprint on there I did with CDMA Workshop (oops!) They sent me to the repair facility 20 miles away, took a look at it and the USB Port completely snapped. They gave me some batteries and I'm waiting for my replacement.

Can't charge or mount... Going to see if I can reroot and put setcpu on there so I can underclock and set the screen to lowest to hold me over for awhile.

EDIT: Dang, flashing stock unrooted it. Oh well. :p
[EVO 4G General] Casshern:
I toasted my micro usb port last night. Working on repairing it currently. The port it's self is DONE. Ordered a new one, but have already cleaned up the board in preparation.

It sucks working in such small areas. It really really does.
[EVO 4G General] UrbanMuppet:
Just solder it back on?

Has anyone returned their Evo? Is it true they just want the phone and I can keep the charger/battery? If so I'll be happy :D Just sucks that my phone is now unrooted and I need to let two batteries last until the next few days.

Anyone nandbackup to a different device? I did a titanium backup + nandroid before I restored my phone. Hopefully I can either nandroid the new phone and be set, or worst case reroot and titanium restore.
[EVO 4G General] Casshern:
The port is too hosed up to just solder it back on. I tried w/ rework station, and I tried manually.

Just too much damage to the port casing that I can't straighten out....
[EVO 4G General] UrbanMuppet:
Take it back, it's under warranty. I flashed stock and then went to the Sprint store. I'm just pissed that this, the screen & light leakage issue are wide spread.

Mine was fine, a little light leakage with no screen movement. I hope the new one is a new build and fixed. If I get a different/worst screen I'll be pissed.
[EVO 4G General] Casshern:
Sprint will have nothing to do with any warranty. The phone was fine until the usb port pulled out. Sprint is also not my carrier, and i've since modded the phone's hardware. I'm in the process of making the 4 buttons on the bottom light up blue. I've got the LEDs prepped, I just need to figure out which way they go on :) It's my "production" phone, so I can't really have a lot of downtime on it, either.

I've got a really dirty hack on it right now to keep it charged, but it's got wires coming out of it lol. My poor phones on life support :D

[Vibrant General] tgrantjr:
I have been in the cellphone scene for a while and done some iphone modding and dabbling in the android stuff. What is the point of rooting?? I know what the purpose of jailbreaking is. Is it the same basic concept?
[Vibrant General] nick_karstedt:
More or less, yeah.

Install custom ROMs

Block ads

Modify system files (Remove stock apps, change fonts, etc)

And a lot more.
[Vibrant General] tgrantjr:
Sorry i didnt post why i put it in here. I am getting a vibrant on tuesday because i completely destroyed a mytouch 1.2 trying to root it. I wish there was a way to bring it back to life. I was wondering if rooting voids the warranty, I think i read i can reverse it. Is this true?
[Vibrant General] Mr_Tricorder:
Remove bloatware that can't be normally uninstalled

Use apps that require root access such as:

-screenshot apps (like drocap2 or shootme)

-backup apps (like mybackup and titanium backup)

-file managers that have access to the whole phone (like Root Explorer or SUFBS)

-performance managers (like SetCPU and cachemate)

-and many more. . .

Add a more powerful recovery screen (like ClockworkMod Recovery) which can flash custom ROMs and create full backups of your system

Run custom ROMs (like the upcoming Galaxy S version of CyanogenMod 6 which is based on Froyo)

Technically yes, I think it does, but with method used to root the Vibrant, it is very easy to return it to its stock, unrooted condition. Plus, I've had to deal with T-Mobile and Asurion on three separate occasions with filing warranty/insurance claims on my G1 and my wife's G1, and I have never been asked if the phone was rooted and after sending in the defective or damaged phone they have never contacted me or charged me because they discovered the handset had been rooted.
[Vibrant General] tgrantjr:
How would you go about un-rooting the vibrant? I just got it on tuesday and am in love with it. I just want to get rid of the telenav and stuff, not really install any other apps. I have the sdk installed and everything, i think i just need the vibrant's drivers. After doing the root what commands can i use to uninstall telenav? Sorry im asking so many questions but im kinda new and dont want to destroy my phone. Thanks

Hi

Just tried to use usb tethering for the 1st time since 2.1 update.

All still looks like its working but no internet access. Tried under Linux on the same pc that always worked under 1.5

Also tried it on xp although I have never used it on there before I got the same kind of symptoms. Itooks like its all working but no internet, no pings, no nslookup.

So..... can someone try it and let me know if its working for you.

I am on T-Mobile UK. Ota 2.1 update, non rooted, stock Rom.

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bazrazgaz:
I have exactly the same problem. I have spoken to TMob UK support who have not yet managed to solve it.

I'm wondering if they've not set up the phone right in the 2.1 update.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] malarcy:
Glad its not just me. I will report it tomorrow as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] malarcy:
I have a mate with a desire on tmob - will do a side by side with him tomorrow (and confirm his is working) and see if it is just settings - although it feels like a deeper problem to me.

Same here - tethering works fine on my Desire, but the missus Hero doesn't work - hoping for some resolution soon :)

[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
If you are rooted, there is an app that works fine.

But custom roms don't have this issue afaik. VillainROM 12 works fine with tether, as I had to use it at work to test external connectivity to a system.

It's an option and one I will look into.

It worked fine under 1.5 and so far its the only thing that us causing me an issue.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] malarcy:
T mobile tech support were able to reproduce, and in their testing they found a factory reset fixed the problem - I have confirmed (as has another user over on the tmobile forums).

Gave me an excuse to clear up the rubbish that had accumulated on phone.

All working now.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nellisere:
its working fine for me :/
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nlel:
and me, just done the Orange OTA 2.1 update and tethering works fine on the phone right after the update... if you need to factory reset to get it working it must be something you have installed on the phone.
