Yes, the 8-digit SIM unlock code can be entered through Android. I did it to my wife's phone 2 days ago.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wrecless:
So did you test it by putting a AT&T or whatever sim card in? Where you able to get 3G on a different network? I will be ordering my Sim Unlock code soon and it would be awesome if I didnt have to install winmo

Got my unlock code today. Put an o2 sim card, entered unlock code and worked fine. Tried with a vodafone sim card afterwards and it also worked fine too.

When i asked for an unlock code i got a 15 digit code, (this is form T-Mobile).

Guys,

I hope we talking about network locked mobile devices. ;-)

My hd2 is on android and I get unlock code. But when I put different sim card, everything's work fine except radio, of course (no service). What is procedure to input network unlock code?

If I remembered correctly, when hd2 was on win6.5 and I put different sim, phone asked to unlock code. Now is a big difference.

Any suggestion?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tucahunter:
Someone may explain the steps for introduce the unlock code under android? Because with android installed the HD2 dont ask about unlock code when i pu no T-MOB sim card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mantoles:
not sure why code is not worknig.

I have an HTC HD2 Leo locked by t-mobile. I installed Android on it. I am entering the code to unlock and I am getting back to the same message again. Do I need to install windows back on it again? I get an error saying incorrect password. Maybe my code is not correct. Any clues would help tremendously. If I put a t-mobile sim card in it I do not get the prompt but again no signal since it is not active.

Thanks,

Sophronis
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mantoles:
this may sound strange but my unlock code only worked under windows!! So after spending a few hrs I rolled back to windows enter the code, then back to Android and everything worked fine.

Just a bit stuck here. I've attempted following several guides here to fix my soft-bricked Vibrant. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734475

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728698

Both JE8 and JFD were attempted but failed in my most recent attempts. I honestly couldn't tell you what my phone is running now since I don't remember what successfully installed, but I think it was originally JE8. Clockworkmod Recovery was installed at the time, so Vol+/- and Power do not get me into Download mode, but Vol- and Power does. May or may not be noteworthy, but I see KeyPressed, 164 at the very top of the screen. Vol+ gets me into "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE", with the following at the top:

RST_STAT = 0x1

PWIC_IRQ1 = 0x0

PWIC_IRQ2 = 0x0

PWIC_IRQ3 = 0x0

PWIC_IRQ4 = 0x0

PWIC_STATUS1 = 0x00

PWIC_STATUS2 = 0x0

When I get into Download mode and start ODIN with either method linked above, I get:

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> Can't open the serial(COM) port.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Attempting ODIN in the other mode just hangs at File analysis. I've tried various USB ports and uninstalling and reinstalling the USB drivers.

Any ideas? Thanks for your time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hiyoto:
Hm~ I may just try to get it swapped out. I've noticed in other videos and screens in Download mode do not have "KeyPressed 164" at the top. I also think this error's come up on the i19000. And considering how I have to boot into Download, this phone may indeed be more than soft-bricked.

And to think, this all started with random force closes with Phone, Maps, and one other app, plus "missing android ID" in online games. Or maybe this really started when I selected Fix Permissions in Clockwork to try and correct the force closes~
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lavundra21:
i pretty much get the same screen. if i just remove battery and plug phone via usb i get the android recovery screen. but if i press the volume buttons with the power button i get the "power reset" or "unknown upload mode." My phone does get recognized by odin everytime but it just hangs on "file analysis" for a while. what do i do?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Pre-load the files that you want to flash in Odin before plugging in your phone USB.

Once its detected by Odin, a COMM will appear under a box and then hit start.

Make sure you INSTALL the drivers from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728929 This is a driver that is known to WORK. If you downloaded from anywhere else and are experiencing problems, I'd recommend uninstalling and installing the one I just linked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doom_ft:
The problem with "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE" was solved

you should try this:

1. shutdown phone and unplug all cabels

2. Press and Hold: Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power, all at the same time

3. After it phone-!-pc appeard, just wait until screen goes black

4. when the screen starts a cycle of going to a BLACK screen, release ONLY the POWER button.

5. You will get download mode!

Your Odin log said Odin did not detected a device. Do you see COM and a number appear on the upper left of ODIN when you plug in the device?

Has anyone tried this charging dock out? trying to decide whether to get the home dock or something like this
[Streak 5 Accessories] cue_32:
This looks awesome...I guess depends on the price compared to the hdmi dock from Dell.
[Streak 5 Accessories] twe69:
Would have been good if it had hdmi out, unless it could be modified somehow?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Dogmann:
Hi yosemite_sam,

Is that the one from Mobile Fun? personally i decided i really don't need HDMI out and as don't really connect my Streak to my computer that often so not sure i need one at all. What i have gone for so far is one of those Car Dashboard Silicone stand things that i found whilst going through E-Bay i think it was i n the iPhone4 section and also works as a desk top stand. It works like the Clingo thing but isn't as large or ugly IMO it is made of black metal with two large silicone pads one to fix it to the surface of the desk top or car dashboard and the other that the Streak fixes to on the stand . All i have to do is change the angle slightly to fit the charging sync cable in the Streak and so far I'm happy with how it works plus it was cheap to think it was only £7 or £8 delivered.

Marc
[Streak 5 Accessories] ajed:
Hi Dogmann

can you provide a link to your car kit, I please? Was thinking of Clingo but no available date yet

thanks

AJed
[Streak 5 Accessories] Dogmann:
Hi ajed

This is it and i was wrong it was even cheaper then i thought at just £6.05 delivered

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-DASH-STAN...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item1c136f9612

The large rubber pads although they attract dust can just be cleaned under running water and remain really stick. As i said its black metal with two large rubber pads and far lees intrusive then some of the other stands I've seen. Although i should mention i do only use it in Landscape on both my Desk and in car so it may not suit you if you want your Streak in Portrait.

Marc
[Streak 5 Accessories] twe69:
Hi Dogmann can you show a photo of your streak on the stand that you posted?

Seems to have dropped in price already to £5.65.... thanks
[Streak 5 Accessories] dcthornton:
This would work for me, as I don't need HDMI out, and I'm not ready to pay for Dell's high markup on their home dock.
[Streak 5 Accessories] ajed:
Thanks for the link Dogmann. Looks perfect for dashboard or desk. I'm getting one
[Streak 5 Accessories] [SMAN]:
This is perfect. i need 3 of them. I didn't want to pay the high price and have no need for the HDMI out.
[Streak 5 Accessories] ricoks:
does this use a standard mini usb cable, or does it require the Dell streak cable?

the site was confusing.

any other desktop options?
[Streak 5 Accessories] Philip:
As far as I can tell, it only uses the mini USB for syncing. There is a separate round pin socket for charging. There are also HDMI and line out sockets on the dock.
[Streak 5 Accessories] ChrisJ:
Has anyone actually got one of these Docks from Superetrader? It isn't clear whether it is actually available?

Can any one suggest a Custom Rom to upgrade from a T-Mobile Stock Rom for a myTouch 3G 1.2 32A?

Some thing plain simple ROM with no bogged down extra apps.

froyo will be nice, but dont know if Flash going to work and Camera and GPS working @ 100%. (i like to geotag my photos)

Something Stable and Fast.

Moving from ATT Tilt with Android NAND flash to this myTouch 3G.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
You wont be able to reinstall swype, legally anyways. For swype to be included in a ROM the ROM dev would have to pay the guys that created it and there's no fun in that. I'm not sure why they don't offer it in the market though.

I did a right click in Windows then clicked format, which Ive done before, but I canceled the format and now the phone nor the computer is recognizing the SD card. Ive tried reformatting with windows again, but to no avail. Ive read a few posts referring to this one program that was supposed to be great for formatting in FAT32, but for the life of me I cant find it.

Any thoughts on this one? I can imagine its not the best thing in the world to cancel mid-format....

Thanks in advance guys.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldishis:
Ok looks like the plot might have thickened. I exchanged the 2GB SD card from my G1 to the HD2 and windows is not recognizing that one when I mount it as a storage device. Im using Chucky's rom which comes with the WM5torage program to mount as mass storage device.

It does however recognize the 2GB one when I dont use it as a mount storage device and just click on the Chucky Rom icon in "My computer."

This might be of no use and completely unrelated, but Im just calling it like Im seeing it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldishis:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldishis:
Ok I didnt figure it out. The phone is now recognizing the card, but I dont think its formatted to FAT32. Windows format wont do it. Format program included on Chucky's Rom wont do it. Ive loaded Darkstones Android on the card and have tried booting, but it gets stuck at what I believe is the data store part.

It says: Failed to mount the SD card. Cannot continue. cant access tty; job control turned off

Then its creating line by line the data store (I think) infinitely like this:

102.9012851] ACR=4093 FL=1256 RAAC=91

153.9813371] ACR=4093 FL=1256 RAAC=91

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worldishis:
Sure have. Im really at a loss. Ive tried the reformat w/chuckyrom's program, G1 default program, and some random Samsung phone default. On top of that Ive used the Panasonic's SDFormatter V2.0 and windows default.

Obviously its not the random programs Ive used thats at fault. Somehow when I canceled the reformat process when this whole thing started, it changed something about how the SD card is read.

Also, when I mount it it Windows recognizes it as 16GB, BUT when I load it up in the SDFormatter program it'll say 124KB for the size and "device type not supported" and wont let me format at all. I dunno man :confused:

Also, at this point do I need to keep the zip file of the theme on my card or can I delete it? And I assume that depends on the answer to the question in my first paragraph.

Hi,

I had a nice shiny desire yesterday, turn it on and it sent an OTA 2.2 to the phone.

Now, a multitude of issues. I have the WiFi error which I have read about but also have no access to the SD card in the OS, can't mount at all. The phone reboots every 2 minutes also.

I want to just install a 2.2 OS with a goldcard. I don't have a goldcard and can't see a way of making one.

I have the 0.83 HBOOT with SLCD screen.

So the issue is that I have tried Unrevoked which works partly then says failed I think this is because the phone can't be put in disk mode.

So I was thinking can I do that with an adb command....

Anyway I can boot to recovery and can run update.zips from that. Bu at the moment I have a screwed OS

Can anyone help me downgrade to 2.1 or root and put a new 2.2 on... anything??

I have also tried the shipped rom and just sits on waiting for phone...

Any ideas!!? Im totally stuck now.

You should push the windows key, then outlook 2010, then contacts (the Blue Icon).

Not Sense contacts, more.... that's sense contacts, there you miss the fields you want.

If you have CHT, you could make a quicklink to contacts, the "blue Icon" is what you're looking for, not the "greyish Rolodex card".

- Contacts (a yellow icon)

- Notes (green background icon)

- Tasks (red)

- Calendar (blu blackground)

I click on Outlook (Yellow icon), then NEW > then the follow two screen appears...
