Whats the fastest/smoothest Sense ROM for the HTC Dream/Tmobile G1?

preferably Eclair or higher, but i'm fine with donut or something

Also, I need GAPPs
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Well reading a few rom threads and having your own opinion would be a start. There are no higher then eclair sense roms, There are a few 2.1 sense though, NONE have bluetooth. Gapps is only needed for Cyanogen roms, because most other devs add them in. Gapps are in the Cyanogen thread.

Try a few HERO roms for yourself. My personal favorite (search a few pages) is the Slide rom by ChiefzReloaded. Make sure you have a swap set at 128mb or higher for them.

Also, unfourtunatly, KingKlicks sense roms run pretty well too. You just gota search a few pages for them.

If you're using Windows 7, Windows may not be assigning a drive letter to the phone when you plug it in.

Is if this helps.
[Captivate General] phr00t:
I had this similar problem today... I fixed it by uninstalling Kies/Drivers, re-installing drivers from the Samsung website, unplugging the Captivate, restarting it into Download Mode (Power + Volume Up & Down), and plugging back in the Captivate. Windows 7 said "Installing new drivers" (which it installed the USB ADB drivers), but said the device "could not start". I unplugged the phone, took out the battery, rebooted the phone, and plugged the phone back in. Windows 7 said again it was installing the drivers, this time with success. Yay!
[Captivate General] darkamikaze:
I think you can flash using Odin One click. just try to reinstall samsung drivers anyway. or use the repair driver utility on kies. then try odin. don't give up :T
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mamumo90966:
Alright, this is the deal, I bought a Motorola XT701 from Amazon, international unlocked version which is supposed to work with HSDPA 850 MHz 3G radio, which is the one that Kolbi ICE (Costa Rican carrier) uses for their GSM 3G data same as AT&T, however, the phone doesn't seem to be recognizing the 3G network, it just displaying the "E" for EDGE at the top, I have seeing the G (GPRS) a couple of times, but I have never been able to get the 3G network to be recognized, this is what I have done:

* Went to Kolbi and activated the 3G data for my phone, confirmed they support this phone.

* After noticing that my phone was not connecting to the 3G network, I took out my SIM and stick it in a iphone 3G and worked like a charm it was super fast on the 3G network, I put it back in my phone and just connects to the EDGE network.

* Entered in the phone *#*#4636#*#*/ phone information and it says that: GPRS service: Connected, Network type: EDGE

* For the option to Set preferred network type: GSM auto (PRL) is the only option that seems to work right

* When I press the menu button under "phone information" screen I get one option that says "Select radio band" when I select this option I get a window poping up saying "Set GSM/UMTS band, I get many different options but the "Automatic" option is the only one that lets me select, all the other options (including USA Band) I get set [xxx Band] Unsuccessful

* I made sure that the option for "Use only 2G networks" is NOT checked

* Made sure APN settings are the right ones (Name: ice3g, APN: kolbi3g, MCC: 712 (preset), MNC: 01 (preset))

My phone is currently running 2.1 eclair and is rooted.

I DO NOT WHAT ELSE can it be done, if I take my SIM card and put it in another 3G phone works just fine that tells me that the problem is not with my provider, so I have the following questions:

How can I check which band is my phone using for data?

Is there a way to make my phone use the 850 MHz data 3G instead of others?

PLEASE HELP, I love the phone but I want to use the 3G data, if not possible I will have to get an iphone (not my first option).

thank you,

Marco

You're positive that you didn't buy the 1700/2100 mhz model?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] NorskHelgen:
The only thing I can think of if your phone is indeed not a 1700/2100 mhz model is to google "APN settings" for your particular provider. I know even unlocking my fathers Motorola Milestone (locked on Telus in Canada), my Rogers sim could not connect to 3G until I went into Mobile Networks->Access Point Names and manually wrote in the APN settings.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] mamumo90966:
Thanks for the reply, I triple check the APN settings with my provider and they are pretty basic just: Name: ice3g, APN: kolbi3g, MCC: 712 (preset), MNC: 01 (preset), nothing else.....but I have an update, today for some reason the phone displayed the "H" for HSPA for about 10 min and the phone worked great for those 10 min, then.... it went back to the "E"...no idea of what is going on here.... I did not change any settings... just happened... could it be software related?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
It doesn't matter whether or not you consider it illegal, it's what the fcc thinks that's important, and according to the fcc, it's a federal offence, even if it's your own phone/esn. From their website;

Fraud

Cellular fraud is defined as the unauthorized use, tampering, or manipulation of a cellular phone or service. Cellular industry estimates indicate that carriers lose millions per year to cellular fraud, with the principal cause being subscription fraud. Subscriber fraud occurs when a subscriber signs up for service with fraudulently obtained customer information or false identification.

In the past, cloning of cellular phones was a major concern. A cloned cellular telephone is one that has been reprogrammed to transmit the electronic serial number (ESN) and telephone number (MIN) belonging to another (legitimate) cellular telephone. Unscrupulous persons obtain valid ESN/MIN combinations by illegally monitoring the transmissions from the cellular telephones of legitimate subscribers. Each cellular telephone is supposed to have a unique factory-set ESN. After cloning, however, because both cellular telephones have the same ESN/MIN combination, cellular systems cannot distinguish the cloned cellular telephone from the legitimate one.

The Commission considers any knowing use of cellular telephone with an altered ESN to be a violation of the Communications Act (Section 301) and alteration of the ESN in a cellular telephone to be assisting in such violation. The Wireless Telephone Protection Act (Public Law 105-172) was signed into law on April 24, 1998, expanding the prior law to criminalize the use, possession, manufacture or sale of cloning hardware or software. The cellular equipment manufacturing industry has deployed authentication systems that have proven to be a very effective countermeasure to cloning. Authentication supplements the use of the ESN and MIN with a changing encrypted code that can not be obtained by off-the-air monitoring.

You can get your HTC EVO on Boost Mobile

It is possible to get your HTC EVO on Boost Mobile.

Some people will tell you it is illegal and site code of federal regulations. Well as of January congress has crushed that.

If you OWN (OWN being the KEY WORD) your device and you are not changing the device info to commit fraud. Then you are good to go.

How do you own your device, Not be under contract, have no outstanding balances, etc. Easiest way around this is to just buy a seperate phone. This way you are not playing with the semantics. You can also find info and detail guides here www evoflash . myfreeforum . org

Hope this helps everyone enjoy their EVO ON BOOST, I am

Supposedly they are suppose to change it, which makes sense.

So, under your logic here, having two cars would, in essence give you the right to change the VIN numbers. This is not allowed. It is illegal for mostly anything out there.

A better comparison would be an engine swap. VIN #'s don't match but you can get it registered at the DMV for legality issues. Just like phone companies have the right to not add the phone to their network the DMV has the right to deny your swap as legal.:eek:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designate72:
I was under the impression that there was a recent ruling that made it totally legal to do whatever you want to your phone, as long as you are not bound by a contract. As far as phone flashing and esn adding, I believe houdinisoft is the only way to legally add an esn to a carrier, and I think it only works for metroPCS. I can confirm that the Evo works on metroPCS legally, with 1x data. I have mine sitting on my desk next to me.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerys71:
but all those laws are TARGETED AT CRIMINAL INTENT.

first if you own both phones and are NOT defrauding boost of "subscription" ie you also have a valid subscription and you gain no service above what you would have had.

there really is no criminal intent under this law. Still illegal? hell yes. likely to be found? hell no (unless your STUPID and keep both phones on. that first phones needs to be DAMAGED to prevent it EVER turning on and connecting to the system)

Likely to be prosecuted and convicted? NOT likely. once in court (if it ever gets that far not likely) when the judge see's wait you own both phones? you own the services and pay for it? your not defrauding anyone of service or identity? you even made sure the old phone can NOT connect and still posses it so your not getting TWO phones working for the price of one.

I don't see you EVER being convicted and certainly not a felony if your lawyer has more than 50 brain cells.

illegal yes. would you be convicted? probably a better chance of you being struck by lightning. twice. and then hit by a meteor made of gold.

While I won't get into how (and I have no idea how) I do not consider it illegal at all.

cloning with "intent to defraud" is illegal. I bet someone with enough money could successful argue such a case in court.

If you lawfully own the phone lawful have the account and the phone can not harm the network (sprint phone on sprint network what harm could possible be argued by sprint/boost?) I do not think its illegal at all.

My pockets are empty though so you won't see me testing that out :-)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flexgrip:
Anyone who has dealt with the FCC knows that they write wording about federal and/or felony infractions. The problem is that the FCC does not write the law, enforce the law, or even allowed to give admissible statements in court, unless they are directly involved with the violation.

If the Supreme Court ruling everyone is talking about is, in fact, true then the FCC's stupid legal spree is once again thwarted by governmental departments that are actually of use to the American people. Unlike the FCC, which is less than useless.

Anyway, its never the FCC that goes after individual crimes. To end up in court with a charge from doing this would involve Sprint first calling the local FBI or Sheriff to notify them that there is a LOT of cell phone cloning going on in their area. They would then start an investigation using any data that Sprint had. If you are the only one doing it near you, Sprint is simply going to cancel both phones and try to get their bill paid.

If after all of this, the police still care about this stupid crime, they would then have to find you and arrest you so they can set a date for appearance in court. Then your attorney is going to file a motion to remove the evidence supplied by Sprint as inadmissible which will ruin the case against you. This will more than likely work. But long before this the State's attorney would approach you and offer a deal where you pay a small fine. No one is going to jail over this unless they are already on probation. And even then, its unlikely.

Keep in mind, this is an outline of what would happen if you were cloning phones to defraud a company. If you OWN your phone and are simply hacking it to use it LEGALLY on another carrier, you have nothing to worry about. Not to mention Sprint should unlock it regardless if they think its possible to use it on Boost or not... Even though they own Boost.

Also, I think its absolutely stupid that people are saying we can't post this information on how to do this on xda. Since when is information and knowledge a bad thing? Seriously? It's illegal to clone phones, not talk about unlocking a phone for legal purposes. Hell... its not even illegal to talk about cloning phones for illegal purposes.

Sorry for the long post. I'm just really sick of people saying "You have to be 25 to rent a car!!! Its THE LAW!!!" Funny how I rented cars when I was 18.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nerys71:
the 25 thing is POLICY not LAW.

The issue with discussion is that once you allow talking about possibly illegal things you usually get a LOT MORE talking and this can lead to downloads of tools etc.. etc..

the problem is liability. it does not matter what the law says. Lawyers process law suits like "scatter canons" or more like "carpet bombing"

they sue "EVERYONE" even vaguely connected to the issue and LEGAL OR NOT its very easy to "lose by default" if you do not defend yourself and defending yourself is not cheap.

This would be a massive burden for a website like this so the simply solution is to attempt to "insulate" yourself from this kind of prosecution and one way to do that is to forbid discussion (detailed discussion) or potentially illegal things such as "cloning" or "warez" etc..
