Now it is unlocked, WOW blowfish was fast!

I wonder about one thing. i think i am going to flash it to another rom, i just dont know wich one yet.

I need norwegian Keyboard, but i would like to keep the main language on the phone english. is this a problem?

I also would like to know how to identify if my phone is a 1024mb version. so i can follow the romflash guide.

It says under Processor and memory: 458,77 mb. just want to be sure before i start to **** this up:P
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
the easy way to tell, , , if the send key is green and the end key is red, and it says tmobile under the earpiece, its a tmous, if theyre both white, and nothing written beneath earpiece, its regular.
[HD2 General] summonme:
Then there is no doubt it is a TMOUS,. And TMOUS only comes as 1024 mb?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
Correct, aka LEO1024, aka PB81100

[HTC Tornado] luisfebar:
Hi, my phone mic has stop working no one can hear me.

any one know´s what is the mic replacement for the tornado 2125??

hope any can help me.

thanks.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Strange - already the second with Mic problems for the devices that I watch (all the old ones: Typhoon, Hurricane, Tornado, Excalibur and Vox). It seems that some are offering replacement MICs on ebay, but the more problematic part is to unsolder the old one and re-solder the new on the PBA.

Check first if it is really the MIC and not another problem in the radio part. Try to record a note or a voice tag to see if the MIC is working. Also check if the Headset would work to record.
[HTC Tornado] luisfebar:
The mic works ramdom, voice recoder sometimes record the sound other not the radio version is 4.1.13.28_02.61.01 try whit lot of rom´s and the same.

headset is lost but i will try when i found it :S

if you can provide me a newest radio it will very appreciate that.

thanks.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
You already have the latest Radio - there is nothing newer for the Tornado. Changing SW will not help if the HW has a problem - and as the recording sometimes works and sometimes not - seems you have a HW problem :-(
[HTC Tornado] luisfebar:
Love my phone, but is old :( know that!

can you help me giving me the correct mic reference?

i will try to fix replacing the bad mic for a new one.

thanks.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
See this thread. Search ebay for "microphone dash".

I don't know how you would be able to remove the old mic and resolder the new one. I would not dare doing this. Best option is to open the device (careful! - don't rip off the keyboard cable) - seach for descriptions how to do it - and then clean the PBA from dirt that may have accumulated there.

Edit: all identically looking HTC microphones should work. There is no reason for HTC to have different MIC in the same shape. I found the following item-ids matching on ebay:

310238895928

180534133999

[HTC Tornado] luisfebar:
Mic just work again xD no more problem whit that.

now the Ring Speaker stop working only work´s sometimes and sound rare :S

what is the replacement for that speaker??'

thanks for all.
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
What did you do to make the microphone work again?

The ring speaker hardly ever breaks, but it is the same for Typhoon, Hurricane and Tornado. It is more probable that dirt has accumulated on the speakers membrane and/or that the contacts to the PBA are not working properly.

If you had already disassembled the device you can take care of both. Check the contacts on speaker and PBA first, as removing and cleaning the speaker is more delicate to do.To remove the speaker from the middle frame you have

to disassemble the device (several manuals available around the net) to its main parts:

Front cover with LCD and PBA

middle frame (with ring speaker, camera and buzzer)

then remove the 3 black screws from the black plastic cover,

now carefully lever up the camera which is glued to the frame with a small double adhesive ring around the lens from inside (really delicate if you don't want to break it!). You could possibly skip that step, but then the next step will require you to bend the flex cable from the camera very much. Never bent it much on my devices, so I cannot tell if that would not break the camera either.

carefully lever between the black cover and the frame (small adhesive frame around the edge) and step by step pull it up to finally remove it. Take care not to rip too fast as you need the adhesive later to keep it stuck well to not vibrate and distort the sound.

now you can access the speaker which should lift up together with the black plastic cover. The speaker is glued with double adhesive tape to that frame - again care to to lift it up.

good luck!
[HTC Tornado] luisfebar:
I conected the hands free, to the cellphone and it´s worked again.

i disassemly the phone clean whit isopropyl alcohol and nothing.

only the ringer speaker works somethimes so i thinks is faulty and sound like weird

try to change for another ringer.

thanks for you help!
[HTC Tornado] tobbbie:
Ah, that is interesting :-) The 3.rd ring on the plug (the one you do not have on normal plugs) is for the external microphone and shortcut to grounds acts as pickup/hangup button. So it seems that some dirt in the socket has created confusion regarding the microphone?!

To my experience the switch that toggles headset/normal also steers the use of the external/internal microphone. Consequently you should have noticed also the sound disappear (when going to "headset" mode).

When you disassembled the device already, look at the rear part of the headset socket. You see at the left side a gold contact that is normally closed and that opens when you insert a plug. The closed contact must be well connecting or otherwise you are stuck in headset mode. When open (plug inserted) use a wooden toothpick + alcohol to clean the surfaces. Depending on the place where you keep your phone when carrying, the socket eats grid and dust that accumulates at the rear part - so keep the socket clean.

I have horrible reception in the house i live in. I was wondering if theres any tricks that i can use to get better reception inside the house. I have to step out just to make phone calls half the time so any help would be appreciated. Thanks
[Vibrant General] I'mDan2:
Do you actually have no signal, or are you going by the bars. I don't have great reception at home either, but make calls all the time here with the phone showing no bars. I leave my phone in 2G only mode as 3G at my house is spotty at best. That way the phone isn't trying to switch between 2G and 3G. I find this phone has better reception than my previous Sony TM506 and Nokia E73 at my house.

There are rumors that T-mobile will launch a WiFi calling app for android. Who knows when, but I've heard it mentioned by t-mobile sales reps. (specifically with regards to the vibrant)
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
That would be a thing of beauty not that my reception is terrible
[Vibrant General] Shane_pcs:
I should also mention that I'm talking corporate sales reps not retail sales reps.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sansone1st:
Hi everybody!

I've lurked around looking for answers but I've found nothing so far. I'm quite new to smartphones as well as to Android, I've just bought a Desire immediately upgraded to Android 2.2 and here are my questions:

1) When I enable the WiFi hotspot mode how can I set a NAT rule on it ? I mean, I want to access my local computer connected to Internet through my desire hotspot from another computer on the WAN side. To do this I should instruct the NAT of my desire to forward all request on a designated port to my local computer.

2) Is it possible to mount a network folder in order to access files on it through any installed applications ? (For instance I'm not able to open a .doc or .xls on a network folder using EStrong Explorer as well as Astro as well as ...)

3) How can I associate a default application for each file extension ? (i.e. .doc: use quickoffice, .avi: use Rockplayer, ...)

Thanks

Sansone
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesmcuk:
I could be wrong but I would have thought that the Wifi sharing is more of an access point than a configurable router. I would be very surprised if what you ask is at all possible without having a router connect to the internet, using your phone as the gateway. Like I say I have no 1st hand knowledge of this but it is to me what would seem likely.

If you find out different please post back your findings.

Hi, I need MUI files that will work with this build of WM 6.1. I've already tried MUI files for 21054 build posted by Da_G but they didn't work :(. I need them in Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. Thanks for all the help, I badly need those files ;).
[Windows Mobile] tomcug:
Can anyone help me :(? The can be also from 20273 or any other close build.
[Windows Mobile] Spiaatie:
Is there a reason why you don't use build 21054?

Why to use something old if you can use the latest WM6.1 build.
[Windows Mobile] tomcug:
I use it because it's faster :). And I don't want to cook again as I spent many months customizing my current ROM.
[Windows Mobile] Spiaatie:
I really doubt that you will find so old mui files.

You have all your customizations in OEM and changing SYS doesn't ruin all your hard work.

[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
not sure about the update. I updated mine manually after debranding. My post is still in the first three pages and I have put a small guide there. Having froyo is better than having root in my opinion. Glad its worked for you though. Get the ad blocker app while you have root!

Hi,

I'm hoping someone out there can help me with an issue I'm experiencing on another forum. Basically I can log on ok and browse all threads, but when I try to post a new thread or a reply, it won't let me. By that I mean I click the post reply button and get a window similar to this forum, but when I click in the text window it just goes completely green and doesn't bring up the keyboard.

I have tried using both the stock and swype keyboards and both the stock browser and dolphin with the same result.

It must therefore be this particular forum however I wondered if anyone else has experienced this and found a solution
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesmcuk:
this maybe nothing to do with your problem but some forums wont let you post until you have posted in specific areas like the "introductions" area etc. If its not this then maybe its a flash or java issue. Try posting from your PC, if you can then it must be flash or java or maybe even the browser you are using on the phone. Let us know any updates. All the best

James
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttrier:
I had 2.1 and root / super root and now I have 2.2 and root. I am using Steal's Deodexed Stock Rom. All is good except when I reboot into HBOOT I get 0.79 which doesn't really let me do anything with options except Fastboot, Recovery, Clear Storage, Simlock and HBOOT USB. I go into Recovery.

I get the Red Triangle with a ! in it.

I hold down the vol up and power and I get the Android system recovery and down at the bottom it says E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

The usual options with Android System Recovery such as reboot, apply sdcard:update.zip, wipe and wipe cache partition.

From here I can execute the windows-recovery.bat from a XP P.C. and get the menu that again says Android System Recovery only now I can usb toggle, Backup/Restore, Flash a zip, wipe, partition, other and power off.

It seems like I was able to get this latter menu before without the PC and windows-recovery.bat but now I can't.

Is this the way it works or am I missing something?

I have searched the forums several times and haven't really seen what might answer my question.

I do use Rom Manager (which I know doesn't work well for some people) and Titanium Backup.

Thanks

Dear all:

This is all new stuff to me...so please, bear with me.

Prior to last week I had a Moto Q9h from Claro PR for which I’m subscribed to their data plan. Most of the time (92% or more) that I had phone it was using their 3G network with no problems. Once in a while I got the “E”.

About a week ago or so I bought from (e-bay USA) a T-Mobile HTC Touch Pro 2 (T-Mobile_Rhodium) with the following OS and firmware versions:

Windows Mobile 6.5 (Build 21881.50.84)

ROM ver: 1.91.531.4 (74508) WWE

ROM date: 12/15/09

Radio ver.: 4.49.25.57

Protocol ver: 61.44tc.25.32AU

Once I got the phone, I unlocked it and I’m using my Claro SIM card however I’m not able to access Claro’s 3G network only Edge (E). After looking around on the net I found Claro’s PR APN names and ports. I added them onto the phone but it seems that I’m missing something cause I still can’t access Claro’s 3G network.

I have changed the phone settings to use Auto Network type and Band selection and I can connect using EDGE. If I forced the settings to use GSM/EDGE no problem, I can connect. If I forced the settings to use WCDMA I can’t connect at all.

Is there anything else I’m missing or overlooking to get the 3G configuration working on the phone?

Do I need to update the ROM or Radio? And if so, to which version?

Any ideas, advice, suggestions...

thanks in advance for your time and contributions.

warm regards...

Same problem here on the Claro network Dominican I have a edge connection but no 3g on my desire and my milestone too, but my chip work with blackberry on 3g.

sorry for my bad English please help!!!
[General Questions and Answers] israel.lopez217:
The reason T Mobile phones have problems with Claro in Puerto Rico, is because T Mobile broadcasts their 3G at 1700Mhz, and Claro does at 1800Mhz, like AT&T. T Mobile phones cant receive the 1800Mhz signal, so you will never be able to get 3G on T Mobile phones, unless you use T Mobile. You must get the T Mobile phones, as unbranded international phones, to be able to get 3G with Claro and AT&T.

Motorola Defy with Claro PR

I just installed Gingerbread to my Motorola Defy but have no signal...My provider is Claro PR; if i choose the frequence band from TMobile im able to get signal just to make calls...Dont even show "E" for Edge...

Over a year later.. This worked for me using a Claro PR SIM on a still going strong Vibrant that I had laying around and got the SIM unlock code straight from T-Mo. 1.5 y/o Claro Galaxy SII apparently crapped out on me, lets see what the shop says. Pretty stable 3G signal even, if available.

Update v2.2: occasional bug when hitting the menu fixed.

Update v 2.1: some minor cosmetic changes and some links to some useful info added (only for this version: uninstall the old one and do a fresh install of this 2.1 version . In the future updates can be installed over 2.1 again)

UPDATE v 2.0: now with editable buttons.

Here's an app that will launch some of the codes on the Galaxy S. I wrote it because I was tired of entering those codes in the dialer manually.

I used some of the codes I found in this post.

Screenshots

Support

Instead of a donation you can buy the app from the market if you want to support my work (50 eurocents). It's up to you though. You can download the app here for free.

(Search for SGS Info on the market)

Download

Newest version is SGS Info v2.apk

You can download it direct to your device and install it from there.

Notes

About the Handset volume: it's a bug in the system. If you first select this menu from the service menu and you press then the handset volume button, you will get straight to the handset volume menu. Didn't notice that. Will update later, or you can edit that button yourself :)

If you wish, you can also enter phone numbers and use the buttons as call-shortcuts.

when hitting "factory data reset" is there an "are-you-sure" kind of question?

if not, that would be nice ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
The "factory data reset" button triggers a screen in which you have to push another button to clear the phone. Did the help text worried you? :)

@all are there some other codes that are interesting to implement? The IMEI button is kinda redundant because you can get the IMEI number with the first menu option. I could exchange that option for another one..

Also the factory data reset points to the same menu as the one that can be accessed via the settings menu.

So if there are new interesting codes let me know, I will put them under a button
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
for the Factory reset, did you use this code?

*2767*3855#

the other codes doesn't clean properly, that one does

you should link it to this one instead

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
No way! :) I tested that one, and without any warning it cleaned my whole system... thoroughly, no data, apps or anything survived. I decided to leave that one out...

Ok, good idea.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
:D but that is the whole idea of FACTORY RESET

other wise there is no much point, when people ask for factory reset they usually want everything to be wiped out.

maybe add a new button and call it DELETE ALL PERSONAL DATA ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Yeah, but without any warning??? What's that all about? I entered the code and *bam* goodnight, goodbuy and good luck :) I thought I saw something passing by like press a button to go on. But I tell you, if you enter the code and you see a little waiting animation and a big yellow warning, the first thing you do is press ALL buttons at once :D

very convenient if your name is James Bond and you are caught by the enemy. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] emelie:
that's why i asked if you implemented a confirmation step.

i assumed you would use this code because AFAIK that's the only code that really does a factory reset. everything else just cleans bits and pieces here and there

Don't know if that's a good idea. But if there are more voters for this I will do that.

BTW I probably also load up a payed version where the user can define it's own buttons. You always can use that one :) It's more flexible, so other phones can use it too and one can adapt it for future Android and firmware versions.

BTW I will keep the SGS version free and will update it for the froyo release.

I've published the application on the Android Market. Unfortunately, creating an developers account has cost me $25 .. That's why I decided to ask 50 eurocent for this app (the market doesn't allow me to charge less).

You can still download this app for free from the first post! (and I will keep it that way).
