[Flipout and Charm General] G1-Amateur:
Hi,

I'm also on the road to unlock my Flipout that is currently on Orange (France). I tried several resellers around the web and on ebay. The last one I tried is GSMLiberty dot net. They all did not work and I got refunded. However I did got some offers for a special code that takes up to 4 days - such as GSMLiberty: They offered me to add an amount of 15 pounds upon 7,38 € or a refund.

And some other offers on eBay around 20 $ - but I'm still searching for an official unlocking service (not a private offer). I will update as soon as I get more info.
[Flipout and Charm General] G1-Amateur:
Very disappointing TPU: This takes waaay too long to unlock a device you use daily, if not every hour. It's not like we are ordering a book or something? Up to 28 days or more before you can claim a refund??... I wouldn't sugest buying from ThePhoneUnlockers; in the contrary: Avoid ThePhoneUnlockers at any cost because:

28 days

very hard to contact them

very bad and arrogant costumer service
[Flipout and Charm General] gracyj:
Hey... I unlocked my mobile Mobile-Unlocker within few hours. It takes few hours to unlock your mobile also and the cost is $16.01 only. Check the link above. They also give full refund if it doesnt work.
[Flipout and Charm General] G1-Amateur:
Hi,

Finally.

I just unlocked my Flipout MB511 (Orange France). The code that I used was a 16digit provided by Mobile Unleash. Great costumer service, great products. Recommended.

Grtz,

Hello have you find since the time a free solution
[Flipout and Charm General] charge74:
Does anyone know if there is a limit to how many bad codes you can try on a Flipout?

I've tried one from Ebay for my Rogers phone and it was an eight digit code that didn't work. As soon as I got the code I tried it and of course it didn't work, so that was once. Then the first video to show it not working turned out too dark for the seller to see, so that was two. The next video then was clear enough to get my refund but that's three.

So I'm thinking that if I try another cheap one from ebay I'll use one or two more tries to play with that one.

So if anyone knows what the limit is (if there is one) please post what it is.

Thanks.

As far as I have heared motorola flipout has unlimited unlock tries.
[Flipout and Charm General] zvas:
Hello guys. I recently purchased the Motorola Flipout. Does anybody knows if there's a free way to unlock the phone? It is locked on Orange.

Another thing, if anybody knows, can the phone be unlocked if I do a HARD RESET to it?

Thank you
[Flipout and Charm General] Airfares:
How much did they charge?
[Flipout and Charm General] jamiehutber:
I also used mobileunleash dot com and sadly the code they provided didn't work. Although they were the cheapest option i have found :). So here is what happened to me:

When i turn the phone on it says:

I was supplied with a 16 digit code from mobileunleash... He was kind enough to reply straight away the first time saying:

But i have since emailed 3 times with no response and am now going with thephoneunlocker dot com as they supply 8 digits codes according to somebody else on this forum :D

So i will report back on these people.

Hi

any one who wants to unlock motorola flipout email or contact on yahoo messenger at macrotraders at yahoo .co.uk.It is a bit expensive but works £22.takes 2 days or in some case up to 5 but will unlock it.payment via paypal.thanks
[Flipout and Charm General] FAleo:
Ebay does it for about 10 quid cheaper!:p
[Flipout and Charm General] oamalik:
This is special unlock code price as I could not unlock it from different providers even ebay.I found it on ebay as well n this was the most expensive but they advertised it as 'Not Found' solution coz my flipout had an error Not Found with every other seller lol so i think its worth it if you cant get it unlocked from any where else lol
[Flipout and Charm General] mcmaxim:
Guys!

Just tried www unlock - motorola com

Well, right, I had to wait 3 days for the code, but it worked!

Handset is Orange (UK).

Btw, I registered only to tell you guys about it, coz wanted to help as I see how you struggle, and some of yous already mentioned that site.

[Flipout and Charm General] tharweb:
How much did you pay as the site doesn't seem to tell you until you enter all your details.

I used Freedom Mobile on Ebay and was charged £12.19, I received the code in 2 days as promised and it worked perfectly.

:confused:Hey gys I have a TM US HTC HD2,I want to know if extended battery works with all android rom from SD Card.If not please, wich is better for it
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] David Balfour:
Ext battery support is built into the kernel. A lot of builds are using the kernels with Ext battery support but not all. If you read the kernel threads you can find out which kernels have support and which don't.

Once you know this you can see which kernel is on each build and work out which have support and which don't. For example any builds that use michyprimas r11 have Ext support

Hope this helps and not confuses :)

Do all other batteries other than OEM rated consider the ext Battery? For example, the Mugen 1300mah.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AMCJUNGLE:
Unless its a stock battery you run the risk of Android not booting up. Unless of course your kernel is made for extended batteries. Its not necessarily the extended part, but the voltage and temperature readings. Please someone correct me if I am wrong.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ez2remember:
Would be helpful if we had a list of kernals which support extended batteries so I'll start off.

hastarin 7.7+ seems to support extended batteries but not 8.x according to this post/thread.

[Vibrant General] sandstones:
This may be a stupid question, but what is the different between the JI6 update and the 2.1 update1?

I just got a replacement phone from T-Mob and it claims to have firmware version 2.1 update1 but the baseband version is JFD.

Or maybe I'm trying to understand what things are in baseband vs. what is in firmware. I assume one difference is that its easy to change the firmware, but that does not help me much.

Thanks
[Vibrant General] rajkumar484:
JI6 is latest and 2.1 update 1 is the old version

I really don't know if there was a pre release version 2.1 (without update 1)...

as far as i know, the very first vibrant came with 2.1 update 1 (or JFD), and that's what you have now.

You should get this updated to JI6...
[Vibrant General] ShinyBuddha:
There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers....

Eclair 2.1 update1 is the stock ROM that comes pre-installed on the Vibrant.

JFD is the launch version of that firmware.

The newest revision of the Eclair 2.1 update1 is JI6 which, I'm sure you've seen a thread or two about, attempts to fix many of the issues users were having with GPS/Sync/etc. If you realllllly wanted to simplify it, and I know this is completely wrong but follow me here, you have Eclair 2.1 update1(JFD). JI6 would essentially be Eclair 2.1 update1(JI6).

Since you've got a vanilla Vibrant, I'd suggest you charge up your phone and head over to the Kies Mini page to grab the JI6 update. Of course you could also wait for the OTA (over the air) update if you felt like it.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] xl DIGITAL lx:
Not for the slide
[myTouch 3G Slide General] guitarist5122:
There is no threat to the hd by giving the original mytouch froyo, so that's why the slide users are still waiting
[myTouch 3G Slide General] NJAZ:
Interesting thought ... I wonder how much Espresso Sense has to do with the delay in development for the Slide. Also, I wonder how much (if any) Sense the original mytouch will get with the update. Additionally, how could a Slide with 2.2 be a threat to the mytouch HD? Features like a front facing camera, no keyboard, second gen 1Ghz chip and larger screen would probably be enough for the HD to hold its own against the Slide with 2.2. That said ... you may be on to something with your theory.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] guitarist5122:
Idk about you, but with the speed of the slide i could do without the 1ghz processor. Slightly larger screen? Not enough to make too big a difference. No keyboard? No thx. Now it comes down the the ffc and 2.2 with sence. That is about the only real thing that could compell me.

Lets just hypothetically say the average slide user thought like me, theres just not enough to push us to drop a few hundred dollars on a new phone after just buying one 6 months ago (if that). If my slide had 2.2 with sence right now, i would be prefectly content to wait till the next mytouch that could really blow the slide out of the water and would laugh at the thought of buying the hd right now.

I honestly see myself holding onto the mytouch for at least another year, especially when 2.2 with sence arrives.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sandpaperback:
I always thought that having a physical keyboard would be a necessity for me, but since I started using SwiftKey, it's just not a draw any more. I can type much faster with SwiftKey than the real keyboard.

Honestly, I wish I could convince someone to trade their Vibrant for my Slide. :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] guitarist5122:
The keyboard really is slower than swype, but i like switching back and forth. Not sure why, just like hard keys sometimes.

That wouldn't mind trading for a vibrant either though lol
[myTouch 3G Slide General] NJAZ:
I'm with you. At the rate these new and improved android devices are coming out I figure in a year and a half (when my handset discount kicks in) I will have a nice line up to choose from. Very happy with the Slide for now.

I just think t-mobile needs to rethink how & when the send out updates. The newest phones should get the updates first seeing as they are the more advanced phones & u would think u would want the new phones better than old versions and then give the older versions their updates...the newer phones should be their highest priority.

Not to sound like a hater or what ever, but I do agree. I do understand that the myTouch 3g has been waiting for Eclair for a while (I know because I was one of the many who waited on that update) and never gotten it so I guess T-Mo made up for it by rolling out Froyo on it 1st. The thing I hate is that I had a myTouch 3g right before I purchased the Slide. Smh

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercianary:
There's may be something in the terms of the plan that says you can't use it with smart phones. If not your fine.

Even if there is you might still be fine, just depends if the provider checks your imei against imei's of known smart phones.

Going on the fact that your currently using it with an x10 I'd say you will be fine.

baseband v. 1.36.00.04.02

build: 1.17.651.1 CL160858 test-key

software: 1.14.651.1

Problem: I have spent over $150 flashing 2 android phones onto MetroPCS, yet I still have problems gettings web to work. I now have a flashed Evo without working web (it only worked for a few days after getting it flashed).

Objection: To fully replace whatever I have with this : MetroDroid v1.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=795182). The instructions seem pretty straight forward and fairly simple, the issue that I have is properly provisioning my phone and getting it ready for these instructions:

Background: I bought this phone already flashed to MetroPCS. It was rooted, but has no custom rom on it, and so I decided to do so starting with using the easiest method: SimpleRoot1. Well, when I got to unlocking Nand, it couldn't find an .img and it got stuck in continuous boot for awhile, and somehow I lost my flash and it was back on Sprint's service. Thus I had to pay to get it reflashed. I don't want to get stuck like that again.

Help: What should I do to switch over to MetroDroid without losing my Metro flash? Can I even do it? I don't have the confidence to be able to successfully switch over from Sprint to Metro by myself; seems much too advanced.

Thanks for any help. I really appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bloodykiller86:
its rooted already its that they use a prebuilt rom but thats on 2.1 and its a lil slow and laggy so wat you need to do is turn of your phone and boot with vol down held. then select recovery and hit the power button. once in recovery which will most likely be clockworkmod go to nandroid and backup your phone so you can always go back to it if anything and then just put my rom on the root of your SD card and you should be good. you shouldnt need to provision your phone if its already on metro

Actually I have Hboot, which I think is the OEM recovery.
