Hi,

I bought a TMobile HD2 unlocked in India. Am planing to update the phone with the latest software version from TMobile. Once i do the update can i use the same unlock code to unlock my phone so that i can use it.

OR

Can i install a custom rom with Windows & Android installed.

Am just worried that if i install a custom rom if the same unlock code will be still valid.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degake:
If your phone is carrier-unlocked (either when you bought it or by unlocking it through your carrier or some unlock-code website), it will stay unlocked.

The carrier-lock (or, in your case unlock) is dependent of the IMEI number of your phonee (and this is something you can't change :))

So, it doesn't matter how much (or which) ROMs you flash; it will always be SIM-unlocked :).

Grtz,

Degake

So, I want to develop my own kernel for the Nexus One. Im downloading the ARM toolchain, but I cant seem to find Nexus-specific guides to go from there.. Could anyone help me along?

Thanks!
[Nexus One Android Development] jlevy73:
Have you checked the Cyanogen wiki? there's a lot of good info in there.
[Nexus One Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Yeah, I've read through it, however, I dont want to build a Cyanogen based kernel, because Im running a rooted stock 2..2.1 ROM so I dont have the 720P camera and such.. I just want to try to compile a kernel off the latest Android commits.

Here is what ive done so far..

$ git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/msm.git

$ cd msm

$ git branch -a

$ git checkout -b android-msm-2.6.35 origin/android-msm-2.6.35

$ ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- make mahimahi_defconfig

$ ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- make menuconfig

Then i copied over .config from my Nexus..

Then I tried to compile by using: ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- make

But that is just taking me through the longest series of dialogs ever and I have no clue what to enable or not..

Am I way off track here?

Thanks

EDIT: tried compiling with "make ARCH=ARM CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- and its compiling something now.. I refuse to believe this will boot on my Nexus though, but we will see, lmao
[Nexus One Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Ok, so I grabbed the 2.6.32 branch instead and is booting.. Now, where do I make changes to voltage and processor frequency and such?
[Nexus One Android Development] maxisma:
If you don't know that, you shouldn't modify the values. And not make a custom kernel.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maggs69:
Hi

I have had problems sending MMS messages and have finally found a work around/solution.

The problem seems to be with the APN settings, even though Orange support have verified that the setting are correct they still dont allow MMS to be sent.

The solution seems to be to delete everything and start again so..............

So you need to delete the APN settings first by going to

Settings/Wireless and Network/Mobile Networks/Access Point Names and then selecting your current APN setting. Once you are on the screen with all the settings, press Menu and select "Delete APN"

You should now have no APN's

Now you need to create 2 (two) new ones, one for Internet and one for MMS (these are copied from the orange support site.

http://orangeotm.wdsglobal.com/orang...e&phoneId=3401

and

http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/su...ersonal/199965

First the MMS parameters:-

Setting up the Device

1. On the device, tap the Menu icon (or Applications > Menu)

2. Select Settings > Wireless & networks (or Wireless Controls) > Mobile networks > Access Point Names.

3. Press the Menu key and tap New APN.

4. Select Name, enter Orange MMS and tap OK.

5. Select APN, enter orangemms and tap OK.

6. Enter the user name and password listed below. If no value is listed, leave the field blank.

* User name: Orange

* Password: Multimedia

7. Select MMSC, enter http://mms.orange.co.uk/ and tap OK.

8. Select MMS proxy, enter 192.168.224.10 and tap OK.

9. Select MMS port, enter 8080 and tap OK.

10. If available, select Authentication type then select PAP

11. Select APN type, enter mms and tap OK.

12. Press the Menu key and select Save

The settings are saved and the service is ready for use.

Next are the Internet parameters:-

Setting up the Device

1. On the device, tap the Menu icon (or Applications > Menu).

2. Select Settings > Wireless & networks (or Wireless Controls) > Mobile networks > Access Point Names.

3. Press the Menu key and select New APN.

4. Select Name, enter Orange GPRS WAP and tap OK.

5. Select APN, enter orangewap and tap OK.

6. Select Proxy, enter 192.168.71.35 and tap OK.

7. Select Port, enter 8080 and tap OK.

8. Enter the user name and password listed below. If no value is listed, leave the field blank.

* Username: Orange

* Password: Multimedia

9. Select APN type, enter default and tap OK.

10. Press the Menu key and select Save.

11. If necessary, tap Access Point Names then tap the radio button next to Orange GPRS WAP to set the profile as default.

12. Return to the home screen and launch the browser.

13. Press the Menu key and select More > Settings > Set home page.

14. Tap Set home page and enter http://orangeworld.co.uk, then tap OK.

The settings are saved and the service is ready for use.

I didnt bother with point 14 on the Internet settings...your choice

Hope this helps

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokyogtr:
Found a particular weird problem/bug/feature today with a friend's i9000. We upgraded it to Froyo (JP6) last night but today in the office when he plugged it in to his charger the phone went into landscape mode. Every single time. No way to get it back to portrait except to unplug it. Turns out it was this particular micro usb cable he was using. I tried my phone with his cable and sure enough, landscape mode.

I cannot for the life of me find a way to disable this. I can only assume it's a Samsung feature meant for their range of accessories and in the tip of the charging cable there is a readable code which defines it as a landscape dock.

If anyone finds out how to disable it I'd love to know.

Quadrant Benchmark Test actually clocks Captivate at 909 mhz w/ 2.2 Update. Processed 60 FPS on 3D graphics. Pretty impressed overall with new features.

[Focus General] root beer:
Not from the review or spec sheets I have seen. The Dell does though, that does look a great phone.
[Focus General] ant1pathy:
Has Samsung put Gorilla Glass on the spec sheets for their Galaxy S phones? I wasn't under the impression that they did, and if not, I wouldn't be surprised if the WinMo7 phones from them DID have GG.
[Focus General] arkavat:
Samsung did not reveal that info. it was corning that came out and told everyone that galaxy S has their product. I find it very strange that samsung does not mention it as a feature.

Same for the Omnia 7 one hopes?

I submitted a support ticket to Samsung asking about screen guards and wether the glass was scratchproof, they replied with a link to their (dead) dealer page and a link Phones4u :| They totally avoided answered the question.

So I submitted another ticket very clearly asking if the screen is toughened, scratchproof or any such thing.

No reply as yet. Seems they're not so keen to say for some reason.

Oh I'm so sorry I wasn't trying to to that..... but as I was saying when playing my music throgh my car radio with bluethooth my music plays like a cd and it skips? I don't know if its the car radio or my G2 anybody else have this problem???
[G2 and Desire Z General] tankmorph:
Try turning off WiFi, if it's on. Otherwise it may be a compatibility issue with the bluetooth receiver in your car.

Try some google searches for "music skipping bluetooth" and you'll find TONS of information on this problem. It's probably not your G2, because I use bluetooth in my car everyday and never have ANY issues with music skipping.

What type of bluetooth receiver / stereo are you using?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Talesin_BatBat:
Don't know if it's related, but I get the same issue with a stereo BT headset, listening to music and just walking. If the phone is in my hip or thigh pockets, the music will skip while I'm in motion. If in my inner jacket pocket or breast pocket, it's fine. Also if I simply stand *still* the skipping goes away. Eliminated 'a loose component' from the mix by just holding it in my hand.. soon as my body passes between the phone and the handset (swinging smoothly with each step) the skipping starts. Also, if it's just playing through the built-in speaker it has zero problem (aside from being tinny and quiet).

I suspect that the signal strength management may be overly-aggressive in cutting down on transmit power as fast as possible to save battery, and doesn't ramp back up well.. if the phone is stationary, I can get a good 60-100 feet from it before the sound starts to drop out/chop. You may just be going through patches of RF interference on the BT band level, and getting similar interference/attenuation as you drive.

Hoping the new radio version with the upcoming OTA may fix this problem (and maybe the wifi attenuation issue too, while we're hoping for things).

Wasssup fellas! Ok so I'm no themer but I've started to delve into your world a little bit. I'm looking to draw on the experience of any of you that have successfully modified the Rosie. So here's my set up

I've got Apktool set up in Ubuntu before you ask I downloaded 1.3.1 not 1.3.2

I have all the dependencies in place

I've installed the framework (apktool if com.htc.resources.apk)

Rosie.apk decompiles with no errors (apktool d Rosie.apk out)

I've modified /res/values/colors.xml to add transparency to the app drawer? (This may be my issue)

Compiled (cd out/ .......apktool b) compiles with no errors

I've tried this signing Rosie.apk, Not signing it, Copying out the "Res" and "Resource" file and going into the original Rosie.apk with Ark Manager without extracting the archive and dropped in the "Res and "Resource" files.

Same result each time when I push the file via ADB or put it in a flashable zip the phone boots goes through the animation capacitive keys light up then the phone gets stuck on the last frame of the boot animation and just hangs there forever no boot loops just hangs there?

Any help would be more than appreciated, thanks guys!

I have been struggling with her too but I think I cracked her :D Just compile it again then use WinRAR (or whatever you're using) and take classes.dex from the newly compiled Rosie.apk and put the new classes.dex in the old Rosie.apk and then you should be fine.

It seems like a lot of the time, my phone will go to sleep and never come back. Last night I charged it, and it woke up with 10% battery remaining after going into one of these states. This has been very frequent and I just got it. I have to pull the battery for a second to get the phone to reboot. The guy at the Bell store told me to update the firmware but Kies will provide no updates (says it's already the latest version). A friend tells me my firmware version is very old :\

Anyone have a solution to this problem? Is this a known issue with the firmware? Could it be an app freezing the phone?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
Go into Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names

If that is empty or has invalid options for your network/carrier, that is your problem. It's very common these are incorrect, we cannot expect the cooks to get everyones settings right all the time.

If you suspect your APN's are wrong, look here for a list of settings that may work (not guaranteed 100% but mine work brilliantly)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dig-jedi:
alright, i'll have to try that after class. thanks. but another quick question, what do i do with those settings?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
Basically those settings may be incorrect for your carrier. Check the link I posted in my previous post and compare whatever settings you have on your phone under the menu I listed, and make sure they match to the carrier settings next to your carrier in the link I posted above.

Remember to save them, you shouldn't have to reboot, but it may be a good idea, and you should be good to go with at least partial data. I don't know what network/carrier you're on so I cannot tell you exactly what APN settings you should use, hence why I gave you the link for a huge selection.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dig-jedi:
so i manually enter the APN that is for my carrier? which is t-mobile if it helps. and i'm in the US.

how do i know which t-mobile APN to use?

also, after entering 5 different APNs and clicking save it hasn't saved any of them. should i just flash a different radio and see if that fixes the problem?
