Wifi? On a Vogue? How?

On to your question... technically speaking, it is very much doable. The only problem is to find a Sprint rep that will be willing to add the ESN of a Sprint phone to a Verizon network (they tend to not like doing this). A lot of sweet talking is involved and you may end up not getting what you want, but it is worth a shot anyways.

Now, back to your Wifi-enabled Vogue.... What?!?!? :eek:
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Dang it...the GSM version has WiFi (T-Mobile, ATT, etc.) but not the CDMA versions....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Touch#Features

Bummer! I was under the impression that it was just the Verizon version that removed WiFi, but Sprint still had it. Grr....so now the only benefit I will get (if I get this to work), is that it will be black instead of white, lol. Oh well, it's already paid for and shipped.
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
If you are getting an Elf, you will not be able to get this to work with either Verizon or Sprint as it is a GSM device (as you pointed out)
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
I already said, I bought the Sprint version. It is CDMA.
[Touch CDMA General] mikurej95:
where did you get elf??
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
That is what I am wondering, lol :)
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
It was a long day and obviously I can't read :p

Back to your question, yes it is very much doable but need to find a rep that will do that for you...
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Phone rep, or in-store rep? I was able to get this done over the phone with level 2 tech support reps, but I did have to call in a few times to get someone to add the ESN from the Sprint phone into the VZW Database.

Do you think I will have an easier time by going in to the store? Or should I just try multiple times with the over-the-phone reps.
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
The problem with the store is that they have a bunch of phones that the have to sell. Your phone is in the way of that sale, so more than likely, you will have a tougher time (unless you know whoever works at the store you are going to)

I would go for the phone option...
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
OK, so I got the Sprint touch...went thru all the unlocking steps using the 2.31 COKE unlocker that I did on my original Verizon touch, and even though I used the DCD Verizon Carrier cab, it still shows "Sprint" as the service provider.

How do I provision this for Verizon? I was able to get a Sprint Touch Pro working on Verizon a year ago....so should be able to do it on a Sprint Touch.
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Great....I think I may have bricked this thing, but let me tell youw hat I did and what the screen shows, and you tell me how I can get out of it...

It is a Sprint Touch, and I was trying to get it to think it was a Verizon touch so I had the idea of flashing it to the stock Verizon ROM to get it into initial shipped VZW state, but in order to do that I have to relock it to the Coke 0.40 SPL, which I did, then I flashed the VWZ ROM from this thread (supposed to work with the 0.40 spl)...

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-vogue-upgrades/19071-stock-rom-links-cdma-touch.html#post191607

But now it just stays at the startup screen displaying "HTC Touch" and never advances into Windows Mobile. Now what? I can go into the bootloader and flash a ROM, but do not want to try anything else until I get advice.
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
OK, so I managed to get it back to the Sprint Stock ROM state...

What exact steps do I need to take, and in what order to get this thing to think it is a XV6900 (Verizon Touch)

It is the exact same hardware as the VZW version. I am very familiar with flashing and how to unlock, but what files/steps exactly do I need to do?
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Status update...

I got the Sprint Touch provisioned for Verizon by manually updating the PRL with the latest Verizon Nationwide PRL from the Corolada PRL page...

http://www.corolada.com/prl/verizon/51611.prl

Once I did that I unlocked with CoKe 2.31 and flash to a custom 6.5 WM rom. It now no longer says "Sprint PCS" but it says "Preferred System" and has the Roaming triangle at the top.

I assume it is because it is an older PRL combined with the fact that I still have the Sprint PRI and ERI, so how do I update those two manually?

When I dial *228 and press option 1, it says "unable to validate phone, call verizon" which just means they are not done adding the HEX to the DB.

I still need help on how to manually update my ERI and PRI. Thanks
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
Until they add the device's ESN into their DB (and link it to your account), you will not be able to use the device on VZW. It isn't just a matter of setting parameters in the phone, they have to do stuff on their end as well, and this is where it gets complicated as they are not exactly willing to do this...
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Understood. I have had them add a Sprint HTC smartphone once before, so I am hoping this time will be no different. I still would like to know how I can manually update the PRI and ERI. I do not want a Frankenstein/hybrid phone...I want to have the same exact files and configuration I had on my (now dead) XV6900

-edit-

I also need to know how to move the ESN from my old phone to new phone - DO NOT TELL ME THIS IS ILLEGAL. I own both phones, thus I own the ESN. The old phone is dead, and this phone is replacing it, thus the ESN will only be used by me, and I am not selling either phone, ever. When the Sprint version dies I will just throw it away like the old one.

Proof that I own both and I am not wanting to "clone" the ESN for illegal purposes...
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
Check your pm...
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Alright, fine! So I can't rip the tag off the mattress even though I own it. ;) Yeah yeah...disregard the ESN question.

My objective is to get this as close to 100% like a XV6900 as possible. If I do not need to clone the ESN to do that, then great. Back to my original question: How do I update the ERI and PRI? Also, where do I get the latest Verizon ERI and PRI files?

I have CDMA Workshop open and running and it can read from my phone. Where do I go from here?
[Touch CDMA General] mikurej95:
ugghh.. I had this document that i typed up while trying to reactivate my phone going back to stock rom a really long time ago and i can't find it!! maybe its on my other computer, but i think it included how to change the esn and stuff

don't get to excited because im not going to guarantee anything
[Touch CDMA General] mikurej95:
okay i found it

dial ##778 and then either select view or edit

go to view first and then look for that you need to edit, and after you find all the info you need to put in and stuff, go to edit and then for the pass, its 000000

im not sure if this has the esn settings in it, its been a looooonnnngggg time since i have used winmo
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
You are talking about PST programming. He is looking into doing something else.
[Touch CDMA General] crobs808:
Alright! I got this Sprint Phone pretty much 100% identical, in terms of settings and software that is loaded on a Verizon Touch. I was able to provision the phone, fully for VWZ, update the PRL, ERI and PRI using all Verizon file versions. I am running a custom WinMo 6.5.3 ROM unlocked with CoKe 2.31, and using the DCD Carrier cab for Verizon. Now I am just waiting on the DB update on Verizon's end. I will post an update here as to the final outcome :) If activation is successful I will flash to Android, and the transformation will be complete! :)

Thanks

[Epic 4G General] bugee_d:
Hello all I'ave been trying to root my epic 4g for the last couple of days now without any success. I narrowed the problem down to not getting the USB drivers install. I am running windows7 32bit and have downloaded the same drivers from links on this site and also from samsung's site directly. The file that I downloaded comes as a "windows installer package type" after its unzipped so it installs automatically upon opening.

After the attempt install I get the following message:

Device driver software was not successfully installed

Coprocessor X No driver found

Base System Device X No driver found

Base System Device X No driver found

Can someone please help on this issue. I have searched the forums without any success and I refuse to believe that I'm the only one with this problem..
[Epic 4G General] Deleted member 2173701:
reinstall the .exe file, but right click and run as administrator. when you plug your phone in, uninstall the drivers through the device manager to make it "search" for updated drivers. worse comes to worse, instead of "automatically search for drivers" in the device manager, manually choose where the drivers are and navigate to the program (usually samsung something or another) and tell it to search.

make sure you have any other samsung driver or program uninstalled. some people have been having trouble with this.
[Epic 4G General] bugee_d:
This is the problem because this file is a windows installer package type after unzipping if I right click on the program my only option is to install, repair or uninstall. I'm not getting an option to run as administrator or am I even getting to see any files much less an EXE file.
[Epic 4G General] bugee_d:
Is there any way I can change the file type from the Windows Installer Package (.msi)?? And what should I change it to so it would act a little more friendly. :confused:
[Epic 4G General] sflores91:
I would install pda net which is bundled with the app, plus you get a decent tethering app.
[Epic 4G General] bugee_d:
That did it.

Thanks alot. Now I can get some sleep.

You guys are great...

Goodnight.
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
I personally would like to know of any foolproof way of installing drivers on windows 7... I scripted an all in one root and recovery program, and by far the biggest issue is failed drivers in windows 7... I've been avoiding installing window 7 on my bootcamp partition, but I may have to just so I can experience the same hell as everyone else.

Even if Odin3 is Windows only, at least drivers aren't an issue on my Mac.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
You can install regular drivers by holding F8 at windows boot and disabling "driver signature" and then installing the drivers.

You can also permenantly dissable "driver signature" just google it,i forgot how to do it,its in gpedit.msc somewhere,i think.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Above is a fullproof way,just dont install 64bit.
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
Thanks for the response, I'll look into it...

Does that mean to install 32 bit drivers even on 64 bit windows?

Just trying to clarify...

Once I find a solution that works reliably, I want to put it in my original posts so that others can benefit from it.
[Epic 4G General] Deleted member 2173701:
not to beat a dead horse or anything....but .msi's shouldnt need to be unzipped, they should be executable that will bring up windows installer...maybe im missing something but glad you got it worked out!
[Android Software Development] LuffyPSP:
So i am modding my own widgetlocker for the first time and would like to push it back into my device.

See screenshot first.

and i am using clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.1.

Problem, as you can see, i think i've successfully push it right? but when i reboot why i still cant see the app?

and for adb shell, when i entered that, yes it passed, then when i entered "su" , it says not found. why is it?

i tried installing but got the error as you see in screens.

adb remount, failed? why?
[Android Software Development] vsxed:
You are using adb wrong!

For pushing you have to use this template:

"adb push *file* *directory*"

e.g.: (without quotes)

"adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk system/app/"

not:

"adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /system/app/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk"

Also make sure, that your SDK is installed correctly, because you used "adb install" correctly, but it gives you an error.

I hope it can help you, had got the same issues..
[Android Software Development] LuffyPSP:
Hi mate, thanks for the reply. I got it working just before you posted.

this is what i did.

1) adb remount (i did it first and it succeeded! yay!)

2) adb push (still using the same template as i did)

but still very much thanks for replying. will keep your info in mind!

yay my first adb!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibrant2010:
What I want to do is edit the build.prop file from one rom so that I could add it to another that I want flash. The reason is that I get great signal from eugene373's Vibrant 6 at least 3 bars and at least 100 kb/s down. I know that does not seem like a lot but where I live I am happy. I also want to pull the ril files and push them to another rom. I have tried ADB push and pull for the ril files without any luck, and also have edited the build.prop in the new rom to match that of Vibrant 6 but when I use root explorer the build.prop file is still the same. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Desire HD General] dhanjel:
This might seem as a controversial thread, but I have a question.

I have pre-ordered a Desire HD since it seems as the best phone available (on paper at least).

But then you read about poor battery performance, proximity sensor problems and some people not so over-impressed by the screen.

But what are the alternatives to Desire HD in the top segment?

The Galaxy S is the closest competitor as I see it. But it's build quality feels like a McDonald's Happy Meal toy and the software is unstable.

iPhone perhaps, but then you loose the freedom you have with Android.

So really, despite the minor issues with the HD, is there really any competitors out there? (For the European market)
[Desire HD General] xmoo:
HTC HD2 with Android on it?? So seriously, everyone I know with a Iphone4, Galaxy S, HD2, BB Torch..... all of them are yealous of my phone!
[Desire HD General] madindehead:
For the most part, we also think that the proximity sensor problem may now be fixed. As for the screen, I think it looks excellent. I think people were over hyping how wonderful the screen was going to be, like it was going to be a revelation in screen technology or something. Looks very good to me :) The battery life is a lot better than my HD2. Even after using my Desire HD all day, it still has more battery than my HD2 which hasn't really done anything.

As for other phones in the top end of the market, apart from The Galaxy S, and yes the iPhone, there isn't really much. The Desire is still kind of up there though.

[Desire HD General] riz157:
To be honest you won't find any handset out there which doesn't have an issue or more. Dhd hardware is brilliant as well as the software. I personally have not experienced any issues at all. The phone looks and feels good much better then iPhone or GS. Dhd has far more going for it then against it. It's simple for me. The only thing device I would consider giving up my dhd would be HTC tablet or galaxy tab.

My bad fellas. I wanted a quick response and that thread moves way too fast. I was converned last night because while browsing websites for less than ten minutes while charging, my temps got up to 102 while clocked at 1.3ghz and 1ghz. I read that the droid x guys who are overclocked said temps up to 120 is safe.

Is setcpu's widget temps reading batt temp or cpu temps?

Mods, feel free to delete, move, or whatever is necessary.

Also running at 1.3 (or 69) and right now circular battery says I'm running at 85F ... (have profile set to clock down to 245/268 when screen is off - this may be important as the phone is likley in your pocket at that time)

Also ... set main profile to 363/1.32ghz w/ sampling rate changed to 2500 - this seems to make the jump much quicker when phone is actually in use and speeds things up tremendously imho...

Thanks for the info. On setcpu I've been running performance mode. Took your advice and switched to on demand to access sampling rate. Default was set at 50,000. Switched to 2500 but not really seeing a difference. how does this play a factor in regards to sampling rate?

[G2 and Desire Z General] liberalswine:
No worries man; I know peoples just want to have fun in here and sometimes its difficult to see sarcasm haha.

Back on topic. The general consensus says the safe zone is about 97 degrees when overclocked. When charging, the phone gets hot fairly fast. I like to run games when plugged in and want to utilize the increased speeds while playing games and so forth. However my temps get up to 103 before I drop down from 1.3 to 1ghz. Should I be worried staying in these temps, or should I say 120 degrees would be more questionable?
