software # is 1.23.573.2

will help any way i can. really want wifi teether
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
So it's Android 2.1? I'm surprised. You should be able to root it if you downgrade to 1.21.405.2. If it has an SLCD screen it'll be tough though as you'll lose the screen for a while.

edit: Not a good idea after all.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purezero:
Yea its 2.1 and SLCD Screen. I didnt know if it was safe to try anything since it uses a different radio hardware.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Mr. X-:
It will brick you trust me, don't try a GSM RUU
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
The current radios might not support it then. You might be out of luck.

What is the radio version at the moment?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beidl:
Flashing a GSM (EDIT: ) HBOOT and/or radio on a CDMA phone (and vice-versa) is a big no-no.

MAYBE you can use a 2.1 LCD Android on your phone, it might not brick it but I don't guarantee it'll work.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Mr. X-:
I'm positive the current radios do not support it, being cdma and all. Downgrading with the ruu you suggested sure will turn his screen black..... for good.

However, there may be other ways. We do have some CDMA RUU's
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] purezero:
I am open for suggestions....

Be really nice to have a backup or something though. I can just see this making me a nice expensive paperweight hah

I am guessing using some incredible software probley wont work, but its prob a little closer then a gsm desire. lease the incredible is cdma.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teppic74:
I don't think you'll have any luck with an RUU that supports your hardware, as it's most likely going to have a lower software number and so won't flash. It looks like your release has fixed whatever exploit unrevoked3 uses, or it has a different model number and is being rejected because of that.

You have an unlocked Desire already, S-off means you can flash what ever you want.

Why don't we have him do a system dump or get us the files to make initramfs? I'm not super knowledgeable about this stuff but shouldn't that give us what we need to flash our U.S. Cellular CDMA Desires?

So you are not testing as an outsourced company? If you don't mind me asking, how did you get a Cellular South Desire test device? Just curious. If you can't answer i understand.

I believe it was a test device at some stage (on the hardware side) and once they were done with it it was apparently going into storage. Someone thought I might get some fun and enjoyment out of it :)

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oakley44:
Lurker since the G1 days of yore (2008) but this is my first official thread so apologies if it's in the wrong section somehow.

The few devs that we have here on XDA that are currently working on the MTS seem have done a great job thus far, but with the "better", perhaps easier to mod, Galaxy S's, Droid-variants, and even other HTCs out there (and coming to town in the near future) it seems like the momentum has slowed to a near halt.

I'm currently running Eugene's CM6 with Dopio 806 oc kernel and I have a feeling that's about as good as it's gonna get; ie. 1000-1100 Quadrant, 10.7ish Linpack.

Now I understand the degree to which this post might appear ungrateful and, believe me, I'm more than thankful that I have been able to download all of this wonderful software for $0.00. I'm really flippin happy that these guys twitter each other all day long between having newborns, calculus labs, etc.. simply to provide the rest of pretty much the entire internet community with access to a sh-tload of pertinent info. That being said, short of studying Linux and the Android SDK for the next 2 years I'm not going to be able to actually offer any tangible contributions myself; simply opinions.

Thusly, I ask you guys...do you feel that the dev-ing is dying down permanently or is it just a temporary lull?

I ask because it seems very obvious to me that HD resolution and, at least, Snapdragon/Hummingbird processing speeds are gonna be the norm (for dev- friendly phones) in less than 8 months; in other words, the obsolescence of our phones seems to be creeping up faster than you can say Nokia 5190.

Thanks for reading.

No it's not surprising. It would've been surprising a month ago even but not today.

You can take Eugene and Cyan off that short-list without pause; Cyan's got too much to do and, at least for the time-being, Eugene is working on the Vibrant; and three of the latest Roms are CM6 or versions of it w/o flash capability.

I've got some figuring out to do before I can be too much help but I have every intention of creating things for this device; my beef is that i'm not just going to swap the APK filesin a rom and re-release it as a "rom" ... I see to many communities/devices who's rom selection is nothing different than swapped kernels and swapped APKs....

To be blunt about it... if you don't like the level of development going on... (And I know you're not trying to *****) then jump in or out...

There are so many people that talk about wanting to learn and wanting to do this but they never even bother to try... If your concern is the lack of contribution, then contribute! Figure it out! You havta start somewhere bro...

and if you've got beef with the espresso dev dieing down then jump in and help it out...

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChronoReverse:
It'll depend on whether your hardware can work with such low voltages, but you can try the various flavors of wild monks' kernels.

I'm personally using his 900mV AVS CFS kernel but not too many people can run that without problems.

The 950mV SVS CFS kernel should be quite safe.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JupiterDroid:
Dude,

you cant use any other kernel than evils one,

thats why sense works on your phone, because evil has tweaked the kernel to make it so.

if you flash another kernel you will lose radio, wifi, viseo, and everything else that makes it a phone...

All sense roms have a battery drain issue on the nexus.. you either live with it or you put stock android back one;)

Similar problem with 3 (Three) branded handset...

I got a Spica (Galaxy Portal) from ebay which seems to have been mis-flashed (is that a word?!) and wouldn't boot. I installed a new 'official' Samsung firmware and all seemed fine except that I couldn't connect to the '3' network. It is a '3' branded handset, I have a '3' SIM and am in a good 3G signal area. If I set it to only use 2G networks then it will connect to Orange as it's fallback 2G network and I can connect to Internet through GPRS/EDGE. However, I have realised that I cannot make/receive calls/texts! I can purchase items from the Market too.

I have tried various 'official' ROMs but to no avail.

The SIM works fine in my HTC TD2.

I'm unable to check the IMEI number now as I'm not at home, but could this be the reason for the problems or have I done something by flashing it with a generic Sammy ROM and not a '3' specific one (I know how '3' can be a bit strange)?

All ideas/suggestions gratefully received!!
