[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toyface:
Hi there

Please excuse me if this is in the wrong place or whatever i'm relatively new.

I'm looking to put the Pinky Desire ROM onto my Desire, I've had it about a month, and I'm fed up of waiting for o2 to pull their finger out.

Basically I'm looking for some guides to root and apply this rom, any links would be greatly appreciated.

I've also bought a few apps from the market and wondering how to back these up and also if flashing this rom will affect anything on my sd card.

Thank you in advance for any help, I'm extremely happy I've found such a great community on the net and hope to become very active here!

Thanks,

Toyface

really not that hard to find... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696189

and about the paid apps... everyone have their own accounts for the Android Market, when you have paid for an app, it should be saved so that when you do flash the phone, and login with your account, it should know that you have already paid for certine apps and you should be able to download for free.. at least thats my theary, sorry, never bought any apps, free is good enough for me :D

hope this helps! good luck!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
its not part of manila, its part of windows. I would imagine its part of a dll / cpl file. (Certainly the icon reference seems to be cplmain.cpl,1)

I would guess its built in to the start menu control app, so not just a simple edit. (tho if im wrong, it might be nice.)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eschrody:
Was there a way around this: Didn't have a smartphone before so I had a fifteen dollar "unlimited" plan. Then bought the captivate sans contract off ebay. Received a text this morning that I was switched to an appropriate limited smartphone data plan.

What really irks me is I haven't been using AT&T's data! I've been strictly wi-fi at the house since putting the SIM in.

Was that the sound of inevitability since they know the IMEIs of all Captivates? Or would rooting / custom mod helped? I hate being forced into the age of data caps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weav2k4:
AT&T's policy is if it's a smartphone you have to have a data plan.. period..

And yes, they know if you are using one by the IMEI.

Sucks yes.. and not much you can do. I had a Tilt for a long time without a plan and lived quite nicely by just using wifi.. ahh.. those were the days..!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finalrequiem:
You may be eligible to be grandfathered in and keep your plan. Call 611 and ask for the cancellation department (I think they refer to themselves as "Customer Relations/Care/whatever") and let them know you aren't happy and why. Can't hurt to try, right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4vr:
I doubt seriously that you'll be able to keep your MediaNet plan. Most of us think that data is data is data, but not where AT&T is concerned. They tend to place this magical premium on smartphone data in the name of maximizing revenue.

If you don't use more than 200 mb a month then the $15 plan should be fine. If you think you'll use more, which is very likely with these phones, you'll want to get the 2gb plan.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottyNuttz:
I won a Samsung Epix a year ago and signed up for the MediaNet plan on my old feature phone. I swapped in the SIM, and I have been on $15 unlimited data ever since. This is a WinMo smartphone, and they have never caught on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l7777:
You have a pretty good argument if you bought the phone from e-bay. AT&T didn't subsidize your phone and you didn't agree to any plan changes. You just have to call them on their BS be firm but polite and see where you get. You should also check your account and see if they actually changed it. I received one of those text messages too but still have my mediamax plan.

Charging different $$ amounts for the same thing simply because you MIGHT use more is absurd. Hopefully one day they'll be called out on price fixing along with the other cellular carriers. Data IS data, just because you consume it using a smartphone instead of a dumbphone or a laptop doesn't make it any different or more costly for them. Data plan prices are a subject that will instantly send me into a frenzy.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eschrody:
Yeah, I might just let them win this one. Was using a Nokia E71 on the MediaMax and they were never the wiser. I guess this will end my long run with AT&T.

I absolutely love this Captivate and will hate to part with it...but because of their "smartphone" logic I'll be switching carriers within 6 months (as soon as T-mo has a good android HSPA+ or Metro has a good LTE). In the meantime I'll be wary of the 200 MB limit and use lots of wifi.

Thanks for the input! I love discussing corporate cents (non-sense)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbohmer:
You were grandfathered in. Before september 09 you could easily switch plans. They restricted this and customers who had already done it now have a smart phone exclusion soc code on their account.

Essentially if you had already cheated the system your grandfathered. If you hadn't then youre screwed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baddress:
Isn't it obvious? Bits and bytes and packets that go to a smartphone device are inherently more expensive to produce and transmit than bits and bytes and packets that go to a "feature" phone!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottyNuttz:
Damn... maybe I should buy w/o a new contract then...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontshakepandas:
Won't matter. If you use the captivate on ATT at all they will add the $15 plan to your account.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianwood:
This is true. But once you're on a smartphone plan, it doesn't really matter which one. FWIW, I am running my Captivate on my Blackberry Enterprise Plan. They insisted it wouldn't work but it does. I often switch between a Bold 9700, 3GS and the Captivate for testing purposes on the same SIM. All work on the same account.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfhp:
You can call em and they may credit you back the money and take the plan off your account, but next month it will just go right back on...its a completely automatic system and they don't currently have a way to override that from happening.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterofthebass:
they are doing this with all smartphones now. Once I got my captivate, I gave my old Fuze to my little brother. Within a day, AT&T had signed him up for a data plan. I had bought my phone subsidized from AT&T and had it with them up until the release date of the captivate without a problem, but as soon as my brother put his SIM card in the phone, AT&T decided it was a smartphone... They also charged the $18 upgrade fee too, which I thought was f***ing obnoxious...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesasone:
Don't forget the 30 dollar surcharge for the "privilege" to tether your computer to your phone and use "your" data.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krynn!:
I've been kicked back and forth through various AT&T departments for the past month over this...

According to AT&T's official line, if you were using a smartphone on a non-smartphone data plan before November of last year, you have a 'smartphone exclusion' added to your account. This will keep you from automatically getting 'upgraded' to a smartphone data plan as long as you don't change to a different smartphone.

Actually, it's a bit more complex than that. The above is true... as long as you're talking about AT&T smartphones. They have a database with the IMEI number for all of the smartphones they offer... but it does not include smartphones that they don't offer. As a result, if you plugged your SIM into a Nexus One, AT&T would be perfectly happy letting you continue on a 'featurephone data plan'. Same goes if you picked up a sim-unlocked HTC Desire from Telus.

Anyway, if you get stuck that way, just move your sim back to your featurephone and give customer support a call. They can get you back on the cheap data plan.

Actually, there's been reports of people trying to add a smartphone data plan to an account using a Nexus One and having AT&T refuse because 'it's not a smartphone' - or rather it's not in their list of smartphones. AT&T insisted on putting them on a featurephone data plane instead.

Now what's really nasty (and what happened with me) is that if you had ben running on an ancient data plan (like a $20 per month plan that provided unlimited data, unlimited text, and 200 mms), and you stuck your sim in a Captivate, you're screwed. Actually it was the AT&T rep who stuck my sim in and tried to process the upgrade. And before the upgrade had even completed, my old data plan was gone and a 2gb smartphone plan was stuck in it's place. What's worse, when told to cancel the upgrade if I can't keep my old data plan, it was too late. Once that data plan is gone, it's gone for good. I tried to get it back for the next month, going through about 9 support cases and hitting multiple levels of support in 3 different divisions. About the best they could do was to give me a heavy discount on the Captivate and put me on the old smartphone unlimited plan.

With the amount of jerking around I was given before anybody could give me a straight answer, I'm seriously considering returning my Captivate anyway and giving Verizon a shot. Except that they're going to cost the same amount I'm paying now, and they don't (yet) have any good android phones that work international.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baddress:
Or the $20 "privelege" of connecting to an "enterprise" email system :rolleyes:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KGB ate my bread:
I'm on this plan and it's not too bad. Only things I don't really do with my phone while I'm on data: browse the web, use google navigation, or use pandora radio. those things seem to eat up bandwith more than anything else.

Also, use a program like NetMeter, it'll let you know how much data you're using via data plan and wifi, very handy. It let's me monitor my use so I can be sure I won't go over.

And last thing to consider: The way AT&T's billing plan is that you're paying 15$ a month for the first 200mb of data that you use. If you go over that 200mb, they're going to charge you another 15$ for the next 200mb of data, and so on..

It really sucks they've done it like that, but they definitely had a lot of leaks in their network as far as data goes, which is why they've cracked down on it so much. I used to have the same 15$ unlimited data plan for the longest time ever and enjoyed it with my various HTC phones (Wizard, 8515, tilt), but ultimately, I hurt myself in the end since I didn't bother to get on an unlimited smart phone data plan back then, which would have cost me more at the time, but would more than make up for it as far as being grandfathered in goes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViniD:
The best way around it is getting a Tmobile phone because you dont need 3g and ATT usually doesnt mess aorund with there imei numbers. But Att has made data plan very cheap $15 and if u usually use wifi then u will never go over. I have never gone over 200 in the past year and its basically i download apps on wifi using other features in moderations u should be good.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loganone:
First off, this is my first post on these forums.. second. I had the unlimited data plan on a dumbphone, switched to the smartphone. Was told I couldn't keep my plan. Called customer support. Explained I had been with ATT since 1998 and I don't understand why I couldn't keep my plan. They said I couldn't, agent was rather rude IMHO, I said, well I can change carriers, can I speak to a manager. She put me on hold. Came back rather quickly and said in a nice voice. Sir, I spoke to my manager and they agree to give you your plan back, since you have been with us for so long. But you know, it will cost you 5 dollars more a month. I laughed and said, that's not the point."
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screwyluie:
I have an ancient plan, it's $10/m unlimited data, I've been with cingular/att for the better part of 10 years.

I bought a captivate and nothing has changed... i had a tilt previously, they never got pissy about that either. I pay $10/m to use my captivate data, same sim I've had since they first changed sims to the 3g sims... I also get free roaming, but that's another story :P
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maskvp:
Just got the captivate on Saturday, and the rep said my $30 unlimited data wouldn't change as she pulled the sim from my 3gs. It hasn't. I was expecting to have to do the $25 2gb since it was a new contract. Maybe it was an "upgrade" instead?

BTW, I'm getting close to a 3mb connection on my laptop via usb.

Hoping I won't get a "tethering" charge, though to me data=data through the phone regardless. I'm paying for two broadband connections!:(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleeping Giant:
The new capped data plan doesn't really bother me. I was averaging 400MB-500MB a month with my iPhone, well under the new 2GB limit. Plus the 2GB plan is $5 cheaper than the iPhone unlimited plan, which I made up for by adding insurance. AT&T said something like 2% of their users use more than 2GB of data a month. And if you go over it's only $10 for another GB.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wakefulpanda:
I went from an unlimited 15 a month plan to a 2gig 25 a month plan. The rep at the store told me the unlimited15 dollar a month plan was for non-smartphones. I told her i had been using a bb curve for 2 years and only been paying the 15 a month plan. She said someone must have messed up. No longer could i get unlimited for 15.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maskvp:
Just checked my plan and it was deactivated and reactivated and prorated. Doesn't sound like an upgrade to me but maybe this is how they "do it".

If I were to funnel all my data usage through the phone the I would certainly go over 2GB, though for all the surfing I did on the 3gs I never went over 200mb. And I used it pretty hard.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleeping Giant:
Yeah, 400MB-500MB was probably a tad overstated. I would usually be in the 300MB range, but some months would break into the 400s. I stream Pandora and YouTube all day at work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazman171:
I had been off contract for almost one and a half years with an unlimitted everything plan for my Tilt (still works, just slow) and when I bought my Captivate last Tuesday they had no issue at all on grand-fathering me in, they actually recommended waiting until I used the new phone for a month or so before making any changes to a lower data plan to see how much data I would use; I was going to do that anyway as this thing is fun to bash around on the net with. Needless to say, I'm happy that they had no problem with it even though that plan cost more than their current ones, just no limits. I'm also using the same SIM from back in the great Cingular days, over 7 years old. On the way home from the store my Tilt got a message that my SIM was now activated for the Captivate, works fine even though it started with a Razor v1 :cool:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keltisch WerWolf:

Hello everybody,

since the last time the Google Calendar apps treats me as an guest.

All events I add using the app are indeed sync'd correctly, but contain other settings as the ones I create using the online version on my desktop.

This is how the event looks on my desktop (I assume those symbols to stand fo "guest" and "anticipation" or something like this):

If I enter the edit-view of this event I've got additional options for invites and so on.

If I edit the event on my mobile I can set the following:

("Datenschutz" translates to "privacy" :))

I think they have an impact on the settings, described above...but I'd have to set them for each new event. :(

What can I do? There is no menu to define the standard-velues :(

[Vibrant General] kolyan:
Asking because I never had reboot before and after restoring with Nandroid I get reboots and some errors in navigation
[Vibrant General] zaduma:
nandroid doesn't change kernel, recovery, baseband or radio.

it does restore everything else.
[Vibrant General] kolyan:
I didn't change any of that....just applied lag fix and then did nandroid restore. Never had a reboot issue before......I have to say that restore point was NEW flash odin install with root, before I had original unflashed phone.
[Vibrant General] floepie:
Can you clarify what you did there? Not sure I understand.

I'm trying to determine whether or not a lag fix (ext2 loopback file) will survive a nandroid backup/restore onto a new stock phone. I'm thinking that the safest thing would be to backup with Titanium, undo the lag fix, make a nandroid backup and restore onto the new phone. THEN, apply the lag fix to the new phone.

Perhaps I should leave this nandroid backup out of it altogether with these lag fixes. It seems we are asking for trouble. At least with Titanium, most everything will be backed up anyway. And then, they can be restored onto a bare, lag fixed phone.

EDIT: It appears there are several who are having problems restoring a Tit backup after a lag fix, which really makes no sense as to why that would happen.
[Vibrant General] kolyan:
Installed fresh rom with odin. Did one click root. Installed all my apps from market and removed bloatware. Backedup. Then done lag fix and then undone it, but just in case also done nadroid restore.
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Personally and I do mean personally before I do anything out of the ordinary like Lag fixes or hacking away at any of my files I create a Backup via Clockwork. Of course they live on my SD card, but I also back them up onto a PC at home. With my G1 it would trash the SD card all the time for some odd reason so it was smart to rebuild the partion via RA_Recovery and then just copy over the Nandroid backups and flash away.

Always inportant to tag each backup with a quick discription to make sure you know what is what because dates do get confusing.

2010-08-09-Time-BFR-Lag = 2010-08-09-Time-Before Lag Fix

So if I screw things up I can easily restore to that point because one reason or another I'm not going to be happy. Heck if I decide I'm not to sure about a fix I create another backup 2010-08-09-Time-AFR-Lag = 2010-08-09-Time-After Lag Fix

I now can test before and after and restore back and forth constantly until I decide what I want or where I want to stay.

Heck the first thing I did after I installed ClockWork was a backup, which would put me right back at Stock minus some of the bloat apps.

If so can this be done locally and remotely?

I'm guessing no one will know the answer but I hope someone does and the answer is yes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] andrewluecke:
If it is like my QNAP (which uses Twonky), yes.. Just use Allshare, comes with the phone.

Ah it doesn't use twonky it uses it's own streaming thing which doesn't transcode but I haven't tried the allshare program I assumed that was for sharing from the phone. Thanks for the comment, I'll post back with findings incase it will help anyone.

*Edit*

It looks like allshare is only for local servers is that correct? If so is there any other apps that can connect over the internet?
