Tried 5 times now in WA state Centralia area half way between Portland and Seattle. Wonder if only 4g service areas are pushing the pri update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] crypt0kiddie:
I think the solution is simple.. Kidnap the CEO of Sprint and trade him for a PRL update!

Ok that might not work either, doh! As stuborn as Sprint is, the board of directors would probably say NO, kill him!

I give up.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Saturn2K:
I got it to update on my third try. This time around I didn't manually wipe anything in recovery (though Amon Ra's recovery does seem to automatically wipe data/cache). When it booted up and started activation, I covered the phone with my giant hands. It successfully activated, updated PRL and said there wasn't an updated firmware to get. Somehow, for some reason, the PRI went to 1.40.

[EVO 4G Android Development] triscuit1983:
I've tried the ##786# and the ##3282# methods like 20 times each and neither are working for me. I'm in the middle of Washington D.C. and Baltimore, MD. I have 4G all the time.

EDIT - I tried installing HTC OTA Froyo 2.2, *FINAL*, build 3.36.651.6 (Rooted) Odexed and then both methods listed above and I'm at the new PRI now. Only had to do it once. Hope it helps, but it probably won't.

EDIT EDIT - I did the same method that worked for me, in the same location on my wifes phone, and no go. She's still at 1.34.

Use SteelH's stock rooted ROM, shouldn't take 5 million tries
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
I guess I'll try that when I get home since the download is blocked at work. I'm just a little confused as the rom I was running was netarchy's odexed stock rom, and SteelH says his rom is just a deodexed version of that one. I don't see what deodexing and zipaligning would have to do with this working, but I'm willing to try whatever.

just got it in south jersey just outside philly. tried many many times on latest fresh with no go.

downloaded the following rom.. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IY9SEQYD

copied to sd card.

##786# and wiped data/cache/dalvik

installed new rom posted above.

no 1.40 after first bootup. did ##786# again

after boot up i didnt touch phone.. hands free activation completed.

PRL update check pops up and i hit cancel.

menu > settings > about phone > software... and sure enough there was 1.40!!

id like to add that this was an meid repaired evo and it still updated! and as noted above.. i cancelled the prl update and the pri update still went thru.. so its confirmed that this has nothing to do with the prl update and everything to do with the activation.

I know this thread is regarding those who have not been able to update but I am in Miami, FL and successfully updated to 1.40. Took me 3 tries. I saw a few people from Miami state they could not so perhaps it has nothing to do with location just luck.

Edit: In case anyone is curious I was using Evio Rom v 1.1. I reset twice through ##786# and no go. On the third attempt I reset wiped data, cache and dalvik cache did a nandroid restore (I was ready to give up after the two attempts) went threw handsfree activation and pri was updated.

Whats up fellow memphians, i see you guys!!!!!

ITS ALL ABOUT SIGNAL!!!

i had been sitting at my computer with 1-2 bars, nothing after several tries this morning and today.. went outside for a better signal, almost full bars, activation went quicker and prl went quicker, checked and i got 1.40!!!

so if youre having problems, try it with a better/full signal!!

I didnt wipe or anything, just rebooted after the ##786# reset in amonRA.

before you do the ##786# reset, roam around outside your house or apt, or city to find a great signal. Stay right there, THEN do the reset process, and stay still while its activating.

I actually had to hold my phone with hand, or it would drop a signal. Full battery charge is best as well.

Hi guys, for what it's worth, last night I was trying all(but one) solutions multiple times with no luck in Lynnwood, WA(just North of Seattle) to get the new PRI. As a side note, I was trying with various rooted ROMs.

After using the file that Calkulin posted in the above quote, (which I believe is a non-rooted stock ROM and kernel), I used ##786# to reset. My phone booted, activated, updated PRL and firmware(there wasn't an update), with no luck. I then proceeded to run the ##3282# fix and rebooted again. This time it booted and activated, and then an error popped up about a data connection not being available. After a few seconds the phone continued to update the PRL and check for new firmware (again, still nothing new). After the process completed, I finally had PRI 1.40 and was able to restore any of my nandroid backups or flash any other ROM while keeping my updated PRI.

Hope this helps.

I'm on Cynogen ROM + 2.2 Froyo & enjoying the learning curve of the android. Its a pretty interesting phone. But have some quirks. IS there ANY way to disable the vibration fully? (I need it only when the phone is in silent-mode). For the dailler, the vibrate on soft keys is annoying. I've already turned off Haptic keyboard and "vibrate" set to NEVER ,but still happens.

Hello guys

I'm having an issue when my x10 says there's no Sim card inside and the problem isn't with my Sim card since I tried in my old phone and it works. Even other Rogers Sim card don't work. Anyway I tried taking the battery out and after 3 attempt its working again. So, I want to know anyone else having the same problem and what's the solution?

Sent from my X10a
[XPERIA X10 General] Rockjock007:
I had the same issue but mine was a little different. My Xperia would not accept my rogers Sim ( 3 years old ) but it worked fine in all my other handsets.. it was the Sim card in my case and I was surprised to have it replaced free of charge.. also I found that some of the Sims are thinner than others so they would not have enough pressure to make a good contact. A quick fix from my friends Nokia was some clear tape on the back of his sim and it worked perfect.

Good luck!
[XPERIA X10 General] suzed:
TMobile's customer service department told me to bend the sim card very gently to ensure good contacts are made. Did this on first day and not had any problems since (famous last words... I'll be digging out the tape by tomorrow!)

[XPERIA X10 General] Imdking:
All u guys with 5yr old simcards need to get rid of them! Those have like 28kb of storage on them, so their phone books are so, so limited!

I know! U use the phones memory, which is a whooooooole bunch! But if your phone ever crashed, all your contacts will be gone! U cannot always copy the entire list of contacts to the sim card, but with a newer 3G simcard, you can copy a lot more than your 5yr old sim card can hold.

These are free! Just walk into your provider's store and request a new simcard. U dont even have to show them what kind of phone u have (ahem!... those of us who are skimming with grandfathered data plans ;)). Just walk in and say "left my phone at work, but I need a simcard".

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atvman77:
Hey guys I've been lurking and reading on the forum for a while but haven't had a need to post yet. I've had my phone rooted since the first week I got it and I haven't had any issues.

I rooted my sister's and she hasn't had any problems. My mom didn't want me to root her's so I did the Sprint update then the HTC update to .6 and then the problems started.

It wouldn't install anything, there were no apps in the drawer, wouldn't let me back anything up. So I downgraded it to .5 and rooted it using Regaw's method and flashed Fresh 2.3.3.

She calls me the next morning because apparently overnight her phone was calling random numbers in the same area code. I flashed ZenHeroFX 2.0 and the problem went away until yesterday.

Now I guess her phone was calling out of state numbers. Now it was doing this just sitting out, not in her purse or pocket. She barely has any apps installed on it, surely nothing out of the ordinary.

I searched even other android phone's forums and the only thing I could come up with was Amazon mp3, which I had removed, and being plugged into a non-OEM charger. She generally charges it over usb with the original cable but the wires are pulling out.

So any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Wow, weird, never heard of that before. So it does this even when she's not holding it or touching it? But it only happens when it's on the charger overnight?

Sounds like that could be a clue. Could be a bad charging cable that causes surges or something like that. Maybe buy a new charger/cable?

Or possibly just put the phone in Airplane mode just while it's charging overnight so the radio signals are disabled?

What about putting a lock pattern onto the touchscreen?

Have you called Sprint tech support? What have they said? (knowing some Sprint techs, they might be clueless as well)

Don't know for sure....just trying to think of several things to suggest.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atvman77:
Apparently it was doing it while charging and not. She does have a pattern lock on it.

Something else weird is that while on Fresh the calls would show up in the call log. Lately it has not.

So, I have blu-ray movies ripped onto my computer. I tried copying one of them into my Captivate. Long story short, I realized that my Captivate's internal memory is set to FAT32 and cannot copy anything to it that's larger than 4gb.

My question is...

Has anyone formatted their phones internal memory to NTFS?

When I have enough money to spare a 32gb micro, I will make sure to format it to NTFS. For now I'm trying to go the cheap way. Hopefully without messing stuff up.

Thanks in advanced!! :confused:

-Rixter
[Captivate General] oswade:
I don't think that will work sorry.

NTFS is a proprietary filesystem by microsoft afaik, and android doesn't support it.

Also, I know the GS is good at playing unconverted movies, but massive bluray rips are a bit overkill.. I wouldn't put any movies on my card over 2gb imo. Waste of space.

I did a quick google, and ext2/3/4 might be supported (at least in custom roms).
[Captivate General] max_warheads:
Ok, a full blown blu-ray rip, in raw format is a huge waste of space on this phone. Why? Yes, the sound is good. The picture? Way overkill. It's only a 480 phone, 1080is over 2x's that, and it's reflected by the filesize and the processing power required.

2x the file to decode, then downsize. Ouchy to the battery. Use handbrake and convert down to 480*800 (or about) and keep the 5.1

:)
[Captivate General] rixter213:
Ok, :)

ummm, one more thing...

Handbrake.. can you use it to down size files already on your computer, or is it specifically for when you are ripping from a DVD?
