[General Questions and Answers] mountainboy:
So I've been searching and searching with no definitive info- I have a mytouch 4G with T-mo. In my area the only other GSM carrier is AT&T and I know that T-mo doesn't roam to AT&T, but if I unlock my sim, would that help me get around that? All I really want is to stay with T-mo and just roam onto AT&T where T-mo doesn't cover- it's only about 20% of the places I go to where I need to roam.

Thoughts???
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
Unlocking your GSM phone will only allow you to use another carrier's SIM card in your phone. So let's say you want to keep your phone but you want to go over to AT&T or you're traveling in another country. You can use a different SIM card in your phone. Yes, there is an app to force roaming called Roam Control. Your phone doesn't have to be unlocked. HOWEVER, you will be charged roaming fees. T-Mobile and AT&T don't have any roaming agreements like Sprint and Verizon do, so you'll end up paying out the ass. It adds up quick.
[General Questions and Answers] mountainboy:
Crap, thanks for the reply, I really wish I could find some way around this...I checked out that roam control the other day, but it's only for CDMA phones- sure got my hopes up though.
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
Sorry about that. I'm on Sprint and I don't get service in my house so I force roaming on Verizon since it's included (and Verizon roams on Sprint). I didn't know it was CDMA only.
[General Questions and Answers] osugsxr:
interested in this as well, currently my carrier allows free roaming onto tmobile and I would like to force roam onto them

I thought I'd mess with Odin today. But little did I know today was the day my Vibrant would die.

My Vibrant is the lucky LARGE nand hardware locked ones.

Odin failed now I can't do anything to the phone, can't download mode, can't recovery, can't get computer to recognize the device so I can't do any adb commands. Is there any hope?

I can't solder so I bought the part.

If I take battery out

Plug usb in

hold volume up volume down power and home button (it's a real button like internation)

the phone ! computer icon flashes
[Vibrant General] All~G1:
You can odin from that screen if your comp can recognize the phone. You will lose your internal info but just re-flash.

In the case you get up & running you should apply the .SBL fix that is flaring around. This will get rid of the "hardware lock"
[Vibrant General] Tynen:
Computer doesn't recognize phone, and the funny thing is I already applied the SBL "fix" and it didn't work, also didn't brick.
[Vibrant General] All~G1:

Start odin up and pull the battery.then put it back in just holding the volume up and down buttons then plug in the usb cord see what that does;)

[Droid 2 General] FunkyMcBain:
Hey guys, I saw this Global edition is coming out, anyone know if it would work straight up on a GSM network? I'm on Rogers in Canada, same netwrok as AT&T and unfortunately GSM android phone selection blows and I've wanted a Droid for ever. Does the Global have a SIM card slot, would it work as a GSM phone or is it strictly designed to work on CDMA and work on GSM from time to time?

Please for the love of god someone tell me it will work as a normal GSM phone, I want a good android phone :)
[Droid 2 General] JonandRoid:
Well here in america I know they have the black berrys such as the storm 1 that are gsm and also have verizon "sim cards" in them (yeah, weird I know..) so I want to assume that the phone will be coming with a sim card slot somewhere but honestly I haven't heard much either about the droid 2 we..when I first saw it I had no idea what a "we" droid 2 was lol...neither did google :)...hahah
[Droid 2 General] FunkyMcBain:
Hahaha thanks man, I'm going to wait till thing gets pushed out finally hopefully someone will tear it apart.

But if anyone else knows anything else please chime in. This could be sweet if it works :)
[Droid 2 General] ArizonaGuy:
Like the global phones of yesteryear (Blackberry devices, a few Windows mobile ones and some feature phones), they come with a VodaFone SIM for use with global roaming. It is SIM-locked (subsidy locked) however and you'll need to unlock it. Verizon routinely does this for regular customers on contract but if you buy the Pro or D2 Global unsubsidized they generally won't and you'll have to unlock it via a third party.

Once it's unlocked: It's tri-band UMTS. I'm not an expert on UMTS frequencies around the globe. I know it'll work in a couple hundred countries outside North America but I have no idea if it'll work at 3G speeds on US or Canadian GSM networks. It'll definitely work for phone calls and 2G data on AT&T, T-Mobile, Rogers, etc since it's quad-band GSM - this is how the global BlackBerry devices work. My old Storm 1 is still in use by someone on AT&T and I intend to sell my current unlocked Storm 2 when I finally break down and pick up one of the new global Droids.
[Droid 2 General] IslesFan:
Just got a Droid 2 Global. It has a VZW/Vodafone sim in it, no idea if it's SIM Locked(I'm sure it is). Once you get it unlocked, it shouldent be hard to get working with a rogers sim.
[Droid 2 General] xryousukex:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/droid-2-global-motorola-nbsp.shtml

states:

# All–Digital, 800/1900, CDMA EVDO rev A

# Quad Band GSM – 850/900/1800/1900MHz

# Tri–Band UMTS/HSPA – 850 /1900/2100MHz

So according to this, if its unlocked, it should work for Rogers or AT&T 3G
[Droid 2 General] vedavin:
Any ideas on how to get it unlocked ?
[Droid 2 General] xryousukex:
i'm sure a third party company can unlock it like how the storm 1s were unlocked, just have to wait and see since it was barely released from vzw.
[Droid 2 General] jy3ng4:
I got my D2 Global SIM unlocked yesterday. Called VZW Global Support (1-800-711-8300) and they gave me the code (once you put in a non-VZW SIM, it will automatically ask you for the code.) As long as your line has been active for at least 6 months with no late payments, they will hook you up.

HOWEVER, it appears there may be more to the unlocking process. When I did a GSM network scan, no networks showed up. Others on various forums have been reporting the same issue in the last day or so. Normally when you put in a SIM into an unlocked GSM phone, you will see the roaming network options.

It's possible that they have blocked US GSM networks and foreign networks will work fine, but I'm hoping others can shed some light on the issue.
[Droid 2 General] jy3ng4:
Not quite. If you look at the D2G user guide on the Motorola website, it says on page 12: "DROID2 Global by Motorola switches effortlessly between CDMA, GSM 900, GSM 1800, and UMTS 2100 networks, so you can make calls in over 200 countries worldwide."

So it seems that VZW has restricted use of the 850/1900 MHz GSM/UMTS bands, even though the device has the hardware to support them. Most foreign networks use 900/1800 GSM and 2100 UMTS but AT&T/T-Mobile use 850/1900, which is why no one has had any success with them yet.

Hopefully someone can figure out a workaround.
[Droid 2 General] jcrompton:
Yes - hopefully someone can find a workaround for this. The same is true for the Droid Pro in that even once the phone is unlocked it will not work on ATT networks.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmejor183:
Here it is, I was just looking for this myself, Went through a lot.

But to use it,

1.Uninstall ADWLauncher (with Titanuim backup because removing it from the system/app folder doesn't remove some residue it still leaves.)

2.Install this Launcher2.apk with (adb install Launcher2.apk) since i dont know how to install from Titanium

3.Press home button

I found the app somewhere on the forum, its compiled from AOSP

>> Edit: All these steps are required because if not Launcher2.apk WILL FORCE CLOSE on you and you probably dont want that <<

I've looked at any posts I could find regarding my problem and tried a few dozen things that were suggested and still can't get my Tilt to Sync. I downloaded ActiveSync 4.5 and got no results. Changed my USB settings, re-activated network connections and rebooted time after time with no results. ActiveSync does not detect my phone.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
And the biggest fix of them all is to try a new cable. When I used my tilt (I'm sure you read this while going through all of the posts) I went through at least 5 cables in a year and a half.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stephenh2:
Thanks, I will definitely give that a try. I am now wondering if the mini USB jack is going bad on my phone. Maybe a new cable will help, but if not I'm guessing that would mean the need to replace the phone. I don't want to pay a repair bill on it.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
You can flash through sdcard though. Dunno if you have a card reader or a donor device to format the sdcard and place the rom in there.

Well, some days ago I just rooted my phone using Androot and I have no problem with that. So, today I just downloaded and installed the ROM Manager.

I installed the clockwork recovery and selected the option to backup my ROM, I put a name to backup file and my phone just got rebooted.

But the phone just do not complete the reboot, it just shows me the "TIM" (Brazillian) splash screen and reboot again, and stays on this loop.

I simply can't get on fasboot mode neither get on recovery mode, i got no chance, it just shows me the splash screen and reboots again.

I tried to make it with fastboot (Android SDK) but i got no response:

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot reboot

< waiting for device >

Any idea to solve my problem? Or i have to go to technical assistance? :(

I've noticed that when I get an email with images they don't display. I'm given the option to download them and nothing happens. They don't download and continue to not display. Is it me or does everyone else get the same results? If it's me, am I missing an option or should I maybe hard reset and start over? This is an Exchange connection via wifi or 3G and the email displays fine in Outlook after downloading the images.

I'd check your connection. I too have images in emails that do not show on first look, then after click on one of the download images links they all download just fine. So, my experience is the same as yours, that they don't all download at first, but once requested, my experience differs from yours in that they do show up.

Bah, I should have just tried this first. I had a micro sd card I wanted to use which, of course, warrants a hard reset so I inserted the card, did the deed, set up Outlook Mail again and viola, this time it works. Go figure. When I first set the phone up I wasn't at home, didn't have a sim card and I was using my iPhone to tether it to AT&T 3G. That might have screwed something up. But whatever, it works now plus I doubled my memory. :-)

Title Says It All... :D

They wouldn't let me take video.. :( We had to settle for some previews... :p

I can say this.. I tried Google Voice and it's not happening, no calls are going to be made. Now, @ the store we did ponder maybe it's cause we weren't hooked on wifi. Maybe with root and a push of the wifi calling app this could make a change? Here, only the Dev's will know. As for speed, its just as snappy as a Galaxy S Device, Honetly it felt like a big a** Vibrant but with flash.. :p

Video on it was very good, once again like the Galaxy Line. The flash is very bright and works well in the dark. The video frame rates were smooth like the Vibrant line. As for weight, it does not feel much different from the vibrant or even the Epic that has a keyboard. My MyTouch 4G actually felt much more heavier (in a sense) than the Tab.

I will say that plastic feeling feels very premature yet prestine. By premature i mean that you can tell they could have waited 6 more months and made it a bit more metalic yet light. :) I guess thats just an HTC thing. :rolleyes:

Hello all,

Wondering if someone could try this since I already upgraded won't work but when i got the update on my phone I was able to go to the cache folder and extract from fumo file the following zip that is on mediafire.

Called OTApkg.zip like the mt3g update file.

Should be the current update.

Anyone on the original firmware should be able to flash this from recovery and be up and running with new firmware

Let us know if it worked.

Just rename update.zip and put to root of memory card

boot with vol down and power.

down and select recover

vol up and power to get options

select update from update.zip and should run.

Download:

http://www.mediafire.com/?jm90w7hr922bpd4
[myTouch 4G General] TheArtiszan:
You didn't get a chance to test this at all? Can anyone test this and tell me if it works. Before even thinking about rooting I always like to have a set of file to recover with. G1, original mytouch, and slide i all have had way to undo before I rooted.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
Didn't work for me. When I tried it I got an error that said

-- Invalid operation --

On a side note, when I reboot into recovery I get this

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

Anyone else? Is this correct?
[myTouch 4G General] M9x3mos:
Reviewing the code does look like the right file but may not be able to be flashed manually.

First line in update script is mount ( "MTD" , "system" , "/system" )

Looks like boots is a special "fota" mode that will allow modification and this update run like that won't initialize it.
[myTouch 4G General] travisjames:
I tried to flash it also. I also got the same "Invalid Operation."

I pushed it to /cache/ as OTApkg.zip and ran *#*#CHECKIN#*#* and still nothing at all.

Great. I have no idea what I'm going to do. Ever since I wrote my downgrade tutorial to downgrade from the OTA to Stock, I figured I would have gotten the OTA notifications again, but nope. Never received anything and it seems I can't use this.

This is a problem.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
Very big problem! By chance, when you boot into recovery, do you see the same line as I have above?
[myTouch 4G General] travisjames:
Yes, I also saw the same thing when I booted into recovery on my G2(before I returned it), so that line is not a problem.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
Great that means theres no problem with my phone. I feel so much better now
[myTouch 4G General] travisjames:
Yep, but we still have a problem with not being able to update to the OTA and perm-root.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
Very true. In the Vibrant section, those guys were able to make update.zip's that were flashable through the stock recovery. Maybe someone can do that for us with this update. I have no dev experience at all but I am willing to test whatever comes up.
[myTouch 4G General] M9x3mos:
It was weird because when I looked at it

It was in the cache directory but not directly

in the cache directory was a file fumo which on browsing just looked like a file on the phone using sufbs.

But when I copied it to the device using the app that is when fumo turned into a folder and opened and saw that file.
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
I wonder if there is anyway T-Mobile can push the OTA to you?

The rep I talked to told me there were 2 updates. I would be happy to see one. She said once I made a call I should get the OTA update notice. That hasn't happened.
[myTouch 4G General] travisjames:
No, there isn't a way for T-Mo to push the OTA to you.

Did the rep say anything about the other update?
[myTouch 4G General] plugged_in_now:
If you bought the phone full price instead of on contract be sure to check online and change the phone Tmobile has for you to a Mytouch 4g I think that could have something to do with it. I had mine listed as a Mytouch 3G still and I went and changed it and hope it'll make a difference.
[myTouch 4G General] M9x3mos:
Pretty sure that just changing the phone on my tmo wont change. Only thing that i can think of minus something being changed since i got it off the device vs a direct download if someone can get the link or call tmo to check on thier plans if past thier time frame they may be able to do something

Just hopefully someone could get the google link for it instead.
