If I debrand or reflash the guarantee falls out.

Unfortunately i'm unable even to start the phone because it is operator locked and I don't have the proper sim. It is a client phone and he insist on its guarantee. And I understand him, most of the hi-tech gadgets - especially expensive ones - are complete crap and replicas in my country.

I saw that wosim require root access.

Is it possible to make a firmware backup?

And how to distinct X10a from X10i? I mean is it written somewhere in the phone or model info, inside the service menu?
[XPERIA X10 General] Tri3Dent:
wosim doesn't require root access...
[XPERIA X10 General] VoidRunner:
how to install wosim? As I see the only way is from gmarket. But I don't have a wifi router around me:( and the X10i could not connect to ad-hoc networks so I can reroute my network traffic to the phone.

Can not insert a SIM card - the phone rejects it.

May I ask if someone could post wosim for me?
[XPERIA X10 General] VoidRunner:
This:

http://android-tricks.blogspot.com/2009/01/using-adp1-without-sim-card.html

doesn't work on X10i.

When trying sqlite3, it brings error sqlite3: Not Found

and when trying to copy settings.db it brings Permission denied. Which leads me to thinking that su is not working properly on my phone:(
[XPERIA X10 General] lqbweb:
Set it up in flight mode...
[XPERIA X10 General] VoidRunner:
Flight mode does not provide no good if there's no sim inside, or not the correct one. Just brings me to Emergency Call.

I've had some problems getting HTC apps working in cm6 latest nightly.

I get my apks from DC froyo.

First I tried an easy install which failed.

Then I moved it to the system/app folder and chmod and chowned to make sure the permissions and owners were the same as stock.

Right now the HTC internet browser opens but force closes.

How can I get it working?
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
Aren't the HTC apps tied to the Sense framework? If so, I don't think it'll be possible to get them working on a non-sense ROM.

I could be completely wrong.
[EVO 4G General] chuckhriczko:
No you are not completely wrong. You are completely correct. Sense is deeply integrated into Android. It's not like there are just some added libraries. The source code that compiles into the framework.jar and framework-res.apk, etc are directly modified by HTC. This means Sense is no mere skin. It is a complete integration into Android. Regardless, without this framework HTC apps will only run on Sense phones. Some can be ported over but it's a difficult process so most likely the apps you want will not be ported over. Out of curiosity though, which apps are you trying to use on CM6?
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
If you want Sense, go back to Sense.
[EVO 4G General] VSack:
Use DC.

Can't use HTC apps without Sense. Please check the FAQ in the future.
[EVO 4G General] DraginMagik:
if you provide the applications you're trying to run, perhaps alternatives can be suggested for you.
[EVO 4G General] kthejoker20:
I personally like the HTC Tip Calulator widget....

and the HTC Notes....

But you can't use them on adw.

I don't want an app shortcut, I want a widget.
[EVO 4G General] topdnbass:
I prefer AOSP thankyou very much.

I just like the option of having some apps that I got used to.

HTC_ime for example. The keyboard.

Even though I use swype.

The camera app which pwns the stock.

Got flashlight and car panel working.

FM radio and weather would be nice too.

There were some nice Widgets but the only one I miss is the clock.

Any porting tips?
[EVO 4G General] DraginMagik:
i liked the HTC keyboard as well. I'm assuming that you did your due diligence and found this did not work? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7429254#post7429254

4G and FM Radio is not working in CM6 yet.

this is listed in the CM6 OP.

i'm not sure what HTC browser your talking about. perhaps try installing Dolphin HD browser.

last nights CM6 build incorporated a new camera app and deathray (er...Flashlight app w/ widget). just get the nightly build and flash over what you have...i wipe 'cache' and 'dalvik cache' ...you loose no settings.

i use 'MyWeather' but then, i don't care for weather widgets. have you even looked on the android market for this? maybe try browsing from a computer on a site like www.appbrain.com

i use digital clock widget to provide my time date...many folks praise Beautiful Widgets.

here is a post that may be of use..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7312516#post7312516

tips...

- everyone once in a while...copy a nand backup onto your pc (ie: what if you SD card gets lost or borked?)

- read the entire forum for the ROM you're playing with

- use the search function liberally. (both on xda and google)

- read more
[EVO 4G General] topdnbass:
Thanks for your post, but.

This isn't about anything specific, i simply want to know how to get apps ported, without the java source.

That said, I AM using dolphin, but I prefer the copy-paste that I can only find with HTC sense, I was hoping the browser on stock sense would help.

I've come across that thread, and use Swype without much issue, but having no trackball (:() makes me wish I had some arrow keys.. Not available in that thread.

Since my OP I have customized ADW and i'm quite pleased with it overall.

Now I just want to be able to use any app I wish. Regardless of alternatives!

Beautiful widgets is good, but has no analog clocks last I checked.

I do use it either way, but again, this isn't about anything specific.

I want to unlock apk's so they work anywhere. Any rom. Not just with HTC apps, but even the touchwiz apps!

Don't care about 4G, and i know that there are bugs being worked out with CM6 but i'm following it closely. On the 8/11 nightly build right now.

Finally, I read too much. I know a lot more than I put on..

Been "playing" with android roms since Dream (especially CM).

The problem which I have won't be solved by simply looking around for a version of the APK that works.

I want to know how they are being ported/unlocked :).

If you can help, then thankyou very much!

Otherwise, I don't need your irrelevant tips. (No offense intended)
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:

Something like desktop visualizer but better
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edesignuk:
Hi, really hoping someone can help me here.

I have a Nexus One that was running a stock Android 2.2 FRF91, and I want to go to a CM ROM.

I've been following the wiki guide here.

I have completed the "Unlocking the Bootloader" section.

I have chosen to use Amon_Ra's recovery. When I ran the command this is what I got back in the command window, so it looks to have been successful.

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

sending 'recovery' (3962 KB)... OKAY [ 0.764s]

writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 1.576s]

finished. total time: 2.340s

I was then able to update the Radio. Now I'm stuck trying to flash the ROM.

This is exactly what I do leading up to my current problem.

Switch the phone on holding down the trackball.

Select Bootloader option.

Select Recovery.

At this point it reboots, but I am left with a little green android man and a white triangle with an orange ! mark.

HELP! Thank you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDevil:
Simple:

After install recovery reboot holding VOL DOWN and enter first time in Amon-RA.

Now "flash update.zip"----->CyanogenMod6-RC2 (it contains root etc.)

If you reboot and retry to enter in recovery you'll have little android in triangle...that's because ota FRF91 has a script in system/etc/install-recovery.sh that at every boot change at default recovery. If you have root you can delete that file, but if you haven't you have to do that:

1. install recovery

2. at reboot enter directly in recovery (at first time)

3. install cyano rom

4. reboot

5. now you can flash amon-ra recovery and it is forever :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edesignuk:
Hello, and thanks for your quick reply!

Still problems though...I'll note exactly what I'm doing.

Phone is not connected to USB and is switched off.

Hold down VOL DOWN and Power button.

Press VOL DOWN and then press in the Power button to select RECOVERY.

Now the phone reboots and I'm back to the little green man with the triangle and orange ! mark.

:-S
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDevil:
So..

Enter in fastboot and reload recovery with fastboot, at the first reboot enter in recovery....first time you'll enter in AMon-RA and do what i wrote up.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edesignuk:
Sorry, so just to be clear...

Are these the steps to follow?

Connect phone to PC.

Power on phone holding down the power button

From the PC running the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

At first reboot after this hold down VOL DOWN to flash CM update.zip

Is that correct?

Thanks.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDevil:
No (IMPORTANT (not reboot completely):

1. connect phone and POWER UP holdin VOL DOWN

2. enter in fastboot and reload amon-ra recovery first

3. at reboot (after you have loaded amon-ra) VOL DOWN and choose recovery with POWER button----------->AMOn-RA

...............understood?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edesignuk:
OK, so I'm doing what you say.

I have the phone connected to the PC.

I turn it on holding the VOL DOWN button.

I get to a white screen with 3 green android men and 4 options (FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, CLEAR STORAGE, and SIMLOCK).

From a command prompt on the PC I try to run fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, but this just sits there saying ( waiting for device ).

If I try to enter the RECOVERY mode it reboots back the point point where I was stuck to begin with.

I really appreciate your help, please stick with me! Thanks.

WAIT! Think I've got it working...will report back shortly.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDevil:
When you are in blank screen you have to see fastboot in red.

In prompt have you written: fastboot devices?

It gives you such a "HTC 123455666..." If yes you have to load recovery like first time...after you have to choose recovery in blank screen if possible directly with POWER BUTTON...i hope.. :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edesignuk:
Hurrah! Think it looks to be complete now.

Thank you so much for your help HTCDevil.

[Desire General] j_simon208:
So...I am headed back to the U.S. permanently and wondering if there is a way to flash the radio to make it work on the U.S. 3G networks of either ATT or T-Mobile.... if not, no biggy...ill sell it and by a new one back home.

Thanks for any info you can give.
[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
As far as I am aware mate as long as the desire has the capability of connecting to USA Phone Bands then it should just be a case of flashing the international ROM
[Desire General] foxmeister:
That's the point - an A8181 doesn't support the 3G bands for any US GSM network. You would need an A8183 which at least works on AT&T, or a Nexus One on T-Mobile. If CDMA is your bag, your HTC choices are essentially the Evo on Sprint, or the Incredible on Verizon.

Is there a way to get my CRM contacts to be available on my HTC HD2. Pretty annoying to not have any my contacts when I need to send/forward emails etc. from outlook on my cell.
[General Questions and Answers] RedRamage:
We probably need more information here...

I'm guessing you're looking for move your contacts from your CRM software on your PC to outlook on your Phone, correct?

Which CRM software are you using? What OS are you using on your computer?

How are you connecting to your PC (WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, etc)?
[General Questions and Answers] mikkeltysland:
OS: Windows XP Pro

Phone: HTC HD2 (Leo) with win 6.5 and Spb Mobile Shell

You are correct. At work we have Outlook installed with CRM integrated. It says Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 for Microsoft Office Outlook. All my important contacts are stored in CRM with mailinglists etc.

I am connected to te PC via both WiFi and regular mobile net (guess 3G..?) and the phone sync with ActiveSync.

Is there any way to make the phone be able to use CRM contacts when Im out travelling and need to send a few mails etc?

Is it absolutely no possible way to import CRM contacts and list from Outlook to Outlook on my HD2? Seems so strange MS haven't made this easier...

It's around 4.5 or 5 megs on the Vibrant I see. Not handy for videos or several photos attachment.

Is this true across other Android phone gmail apps? Any workaround?

I have been able to do much larger attachments through the browser on the mobile gmail site. But ah how nice it would be from the native app when clicking through from the camera or camcorder...
[Vibrant General] zerosource:
How do you check it?
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Pretty sure the cap to send/receive is 25 MB's.

Of course, there is likely an easier way to share such a large file.
[Vibrant General] ytj87:
You can check by shooting a video and sharing via gmail. You'll get a "too large to attach" error when gmail opens.

Yes, it's easy to send more than 5mb. A single 20 sec 640x vid set to normal quality exceeds the limit.
[Vibrant General] jonathan75:
I don't like how it compresses the pictures when you try to send it. When I upload to facebook it looks like crap. So I tried to upload to facebook via gmail and it still compresses the picture. :( Wish there was a way around it.

This is a mod / theme if you want to call it that...which you really shouldn't. All it does is change your old boring 3G icon into an awesome 4G icon to shove in peoples faces - namely evo owners :D

Images were created by Pyro using mad photoshop skillz.

As always, i dont want any complaints about it killing your phone or anything... nandroid before if you're scared :p (but honestly its just a metamorph)

Phone WILL reboot during/after applying the Metamorph

And one more thing, people were saying that my older signal visual fix didnt work when they extracted the zip using MM. If this happens to you just extract the zip yourself with astro or something.

*3Gto4G.zip is the metamorph - tested on DD and CM6, so someone try it on a sense rom for me :P*

(CM6 flashable - since the framework is constantly being changed, id have to make one for every build - not happening. So what i will do is once an actual RC gets released I'll make one for that, and then builds after that, excluding nighlys)

I have a HTC Touch 3G phone bought from eBay. But it was only later that I realized that it's an OEM phone and not the one manufactured by HTC. The specs are :

CPU - Marvell PXA200

ROM - 256MB

RAM - 128MB

OS- Win6.5 professional

It was working fine for 6 months. However, since last month I started facing problems with the phone. The phone suddenly shows disconnected while it is connected to the computer and is in synchronized status. When I unplug and replug the USB, it can't get connected although I can see the Connected icon on the phone. All the other functions work normally except that it wouldn't connect to the computer. I tried with both Normal and Advanced USB Network functionality but the problem persists with both. Since it wouldn't connect, I have to either switch the phone off and switch on or do a soft reset or remove the battery and put it back again and switch on. When I do that, the phone switches to Factory Default settings automatically and all my settings/data is lost.

Can somebody help me to identify what the problem is? Is the OS corrupted? How can I install a new OS?

You cannot uninstall unless you change to a custom ROM. To diasable you should do the following:

Once you do that you can either enable the windows default (Titanium), or simply install and enable another of your preference.

Hi,

I'm trying to create a small app that work with bt based on Broadcomm stack.

Everything works fine except switching off.

Documentation provides the info that bt would be off when the last object using stack is disposed. At the end I should call WIDCOMMSDK_ShutDown().

Unfortunately I can't make it working - after deleting bt object and calling WIDCOMMSDK_ShutDown bluetooth is still on. Its icon disappears from notification bar but in comm manager it's still on and visible for other devices.

For clarification: it's console app working in background and turning bt off not necessary should be when exiting app.

Below code snippet:

CBtIf *bt;
//...

bt = new CBtIf();
bt->AllowToConnect(CBtIf::CONNECT_ALLOW_PAIRED);
//...

delete bt;
bt = NULL;
WIDCOMMSDK_ShutDown();
