Nice job, this solved my IMEI problem. Thanks a lot!!!

Didn't followed exactly this steps, just the idea. I've used Root Explorer, copied and replaced nv_data.bin and mps_code.dat from my efs back-up up folder on the efs folder on my SGS and everything was ok.

But instead of:

"Look in the

efs folder that you have backed

up and copy the file nv_data.bin to the internal sdcard of your phone.

In the

efs folder

you will find a folder with the name imei, copy the file mps_code.dat from there to the internal sdcard of your phone."

is better:

"Look in the

back-up efs folder

and copy the file nv_data.bin to the internal sdcard of your phone.

In the

back-up efs folder

you will find a folder with the name imei, copy the file mps_code.dat from there to the internal sdcard of your phone."

to be more clear.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Polarfuchs:
Hi, I just tried this method.

But when I want to copy the nv_data.bin to /sdcard I get the error " cp: not found"

How can that be?

Hi guys,

I made the update to froyo Jp6 using the registry hack, the product code changed form ORO to XEE.

I want to revert to Jm1, but i also want to change back the product code back

I do mention that i have a valid copy of the /efs folder on the card of the phone and on my pc

I would like to know what would be the easiest way to achieve that.

Should i overwrite the mps_code.dat and the nv_data.bin and delete nv_data.bin.md5

reboot and change persmissions on the nv_data.bin ?

Thans

help!!

No such user '1001:1001'

solved it made 777 on nvdata.bin
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Polarfuchs:
I have the same error.

How did you solve it?

Did you type "chown 777:777 /efs/nv_data.bin" ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
You should execute :

busybox chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Polarfuchs:
I know, but it replies:

"No such user '1001:1001'"

Sorry, i did only execute

"chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin"

Now I added busybox and it works

If you have read only "problem" use this commands before:

After that, try again the rm command.

Avoiding KOR product code changes

Guys,

Just crosslinking my post in another thread which may or may not be useful if you don't want to lose your existing product code when flashing the beta Froyo ROMS that change product code to KOR (flasher's beware and the usual disclaimers relating to bricking, of course!)

Of course, this is only for flashing zip files via CWM 2e recovery (I haven't attempted repackaging ODIN files this way yet) , and it is still strongly recommended that you backup your /efs folder before flashing.

The good thing is that you don't have to change your CSC after installing a ROM thereby losing the original mods intended. IMEI, MAC and bluetooth addresses were intact too after the ROM update.

(And thanks to Methyl_dioxide, Aery and bloodrider who have done a great job in helping me understand and resolve CSC/Product Code issues through their threads/posts here after I first lost my settings when flashing JPC from ODIN without a prior backup)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pharaohdk:
finaly got this to work, never maneged to rm the 2nd file, but did not seem to mater since now kies tells me my product code is indeed XEE which I wanted, tho should say that I copied a prior version of my nv_data.bin onto the phone rather then editing the one on the phone

Help my friend's phone now doesn't have signal/network anything. Busybox and terminal is also gone so can't download it from market because there is no signal!

so how can he get the signal back??

Nvm...it's fix.

However his imei change to 004999010640000 how do we get this fix!!!

*edited: just to update for those having this problem too, my friend use the original nv_data.bin ( the one with KOR ) and replace it back to the phone. Now you will get wrong product code and correct imei. Then he use HEX editor (very important, don't use notepad or wordpad if not you will get screw imei) and change KOR to whatever you want it to be then replace this with the one in your phone, reboot and you are done!

Another method is listed belowpost #178 i used this to solve mine ( only works for people with nv_data.bak with the product code you want)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mailman01:
Maybe this helps some folks:

I was on XEE after the first froyo release with kies-registry-hack. Original was the JM1 with german DBT.

Then I switched to JPO via Kies using another reghack, and still had the XEE salescode.

Checked the internet, and this did it for me:

(Phone rooted)

1.downloaded SGS toolbox

2. run the app, checked "product code" in app, it shows the salescode in nv_data.bin and nv_data.bak

3. in nv_data.bin the salescode was the actual XEE, the .bak had the old DBT salescode

4. deleted nv_data.bin using root-explorer (app)

5. reboot

6. check again with sgs toolbox, DBT alright

7. checked kies with regedit.exe, salescode DBT

et voila...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laviz:
mailman01

My .bak also shows my original product code while my nv_data.bin shows KOR. But I don't have root explorer. Can you tell me the cmd i should type in terminal emulator? Thanks!!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eggcake:
Ive got a big problem since some time now: nearly every contact exists twice.

Now, normally this isn't a problem, as you could just delete them.

But I can't see them twice in the list. When I go to Contacts -> Click on a Contact and then press "Edit Contact" another List opens where I see them twice (both "Google"-Contacts). I don't know how I delete one of them. There is no button or something...

So open Contacts, go to one of them, press edit and there I see the contact twice, both Google-Contacts and there is no delete button, I can just edit them (and they are exactly the same). So when I for example write a SMS and enter the name, I see them twice...

Any help? :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chili1496:
i am a novice so my advice maybe wrong, however i seem to recall i had the same problem.

in the end i deleted them All then just synced with google and my contact list was sorted.

save your contacts on google, edit them on google then sync. i think this right :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eKeith:
Disable AutoSync.

Goto Manage Apps, find Contacts Storage and clear the cache thereby deleting all contacts on the Desire.

Manually sync Google Contacts which will rebuild the database on the Desire.

Enable AutoSync.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eggcake:
Didn't work...still got them twice.

But I found out a way to do it...it's a bit idiotic but it seems to be working:

- Edit 1 of the 2 contacts (delete numbers for example)

- Sync

- Delete Contacts Cache

- Sync

- Now the contacts do appear twice in the list and you can delete the empty one

It's still autosyncinc somehow by the way. I disabled Autosync (it's DEFINITELY disabled). As soon as I delete the cache I see the sync symbol in the notifications bar...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
I could be wrong, but i feel quite certain, that the contacts are stored on the data partition as data not cache. More exactly in "data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts.db" so i dont see how clearing cache would remove all contacts.

Eggcake: sometimes some of these things just **** up and you have to remove correct it. But as they are googlecontacts, i believe the easiest way is to go to you googleaccount and check the contacts list, and if it's fine, go delete all contacts and sync them to the phone again.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ksemeks:
Anyone?

@ HTC Wildfire w/ XDA App.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sitlet:
The phone would have to have an external wifi antenna port, and I have never seen a phone with one.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TecHunter:
or you could open the phone, track where the wifi module is and sold a cable to make an external plug for the antenna.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eli88:
why not just use connectors from HTC's female to a regular usb female and connect the WiFi adapter to it?

the hardest part is not connecting the two,

It's making so that HTC recognizes it as a wireless adapter and be able to use it.

But another problem would probably be that the Wireless adapter would take up too much power from the phone, which will: a. drain the battery very fast or b. not get enough power and therefor not work at all.

This is just my guess, I really want this to be possible in the near future..
[General Questions and Answers] duke666:
I have a Vodafone 1230 - ZTE 811 and it plays sound files louder than when you set it as a ringtone.

I decided to open this thread after i read everything about making you ringtone louder; i tried all the tweaks and cabs for different WM qwerty Smartphones, none worked, some even made my ringtone quieter. Other notification, incoming SMS, etc. sound as loud as when you play them in WM Media Player.

This phone is locked in Vodafone and i don't think it has a inappropriate firmware, because it was set by Vodafone for my country, so everything should work.

I noticed in some threads, beside registry modifications, that a program HTC Audiogain appears, but my device is not HTC, and has nothing similar.

Can anyone help me? Or just give me a clue.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AdrianK:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jan-willem3:
No in windows mobile you get the same. You will also see about 448.

I think there is a way since older kernels where 256 mb and 32mb video memory.

But it is not useful since the preformence in android will slow down very much slower animations etc. But believe me we got more then enough ram.;)
