why pay for it when you can get it for nothing.
[Focus General] jsconyers1:
Would switching back to the ATT card relock the phone?

Thanks for your help.
[Focus General] bugsy:
No, once unlocked it should stay unlocked.
[Focus General] xtian63:
its just $12 jeez i did not want to run through hoops getting the unlock code,
[Focus General] CB620:
i got a unlock code for $5 on ebay, code came in 2 hours

Watch this on unlocking your samsung focus
[Focus General] ronaldweasly:
When Unlocking, always use a unlock code – This method is the simplest and safest method to unlocking your phone. You can hook it up to servers; I would suggest code is if want to pay less (take the risk of trouble) on older models. New phones cannot be unlocked by software.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
There are codes for Rogers as well on eBay, btw. I also believe Rogers do deliver the code, if asked and all the requirements are met.
[Focus General] LordLugard:
I got an AT&T Samsung Focus to use on Simple Mobile and used cellunlocker.net to unlock it. 7.99, and had the code in 1 hr.

Also got the official Mango update notification last night, and Mango is very noticeably faster than whatever pre-Mango software was on it.
[Focus General] malayalapenkutti:
Try code from service provider.
[Focus General] ace10134:
Yeah calling AT&T and saying I bought it from a friend and I'm going to travel overseas worked for me too!

Well technically... the phone was still listed under the previous person's phone number, and idk who owned it before, so they couldn't do it. But if you know the person you're buying it from and you have them update their phone's status as Sold, then it works. AT&T's nice!
[Focus General] jays6768:
I just used cellunlocker.net as well for my AT&T Focus that was updated to 7.5 Mango. I got my code in less that 30 seconds and it worked fine. From what I read it makes it that much easier if you have another carrier's SIM in when you enter the code. I used a T-Mobile and put the code in when it asked me.
[Focus General] malayalapenkutti:
To Unlock the samsung Focus use the Unlock code,you can get the Unlock code from the site Theunlockarena.com and unlock it step by step....

Samsung Focus Unlocking Instructions

Warning : Do not enter any wrong unlock codes on your Samsung Focus mobile phones. If you enter over a certain amount of wrong unlock codes on your Samsung Focus mobile phone, your phone may get hard locked and sometimes become unusable.

1 - Switch ON your Samsung Focus with a NOT ACCEPTED SIM Card.

2 - Compose : #7465625*638*CODE# (or *#7465625*638*CODE#).

NOT ACCEPTED: We mean, to use a sim card from a network other than the network your Samsung Focus is locked to.

CODE: Its the unique Unlock Code for your Samsung Focus.
[Focus General] ikevcolt:
Copy/paste from att website

What is the unlock code for my phone?

Note: If your phone is an iPhone, the following information does not apply. Please see What is the unlock code for my iPhone? for more information.

Wireless phones purchased from AT&T generally come with locked SIMs, which potentially makes them incompatible with wireless service from non-AT&T providers.

To use an AT&T phone on another wireless network, you must unlock its SIM using an Unlock Code.

AT&T will provide the Unlock Code for phones on wireless plans if:

Your wireless service has been active for 90 days or longer

Your account is current and in good standing

Your phone is not sold exclusively by us

Your phone's Unlock Code is available from the Manufacturer

AT&T will provide the Unlock Code for AT&T branded phones on Prepaid plans to customers who have either been on AT&T service for 6 months or longer, or provide a receipt or other proof of purchase.

AT&T cannot provide Unlock Codes for iPhones and other non-eligible devices. See What is the unlock code for my iPhone? for details.

Please call Customer Service at 1-800-331-0500 to determine if your device can be unlocked, and for assistance unlocking your handset if eligible.

I wanna buy a S. Focus, but, im sooooo afraid if the unlock works, cause, i buy a Quantum with the impossible error of PUK.

I hope dont waste my money, again.

So, i recommend unlocker.net. Amazing guys.
[Focus General] englishdan:
Thanks!

I followed your instructions, called the 800 number and was on hold for longer than it took the lady to give me the unlock code!

I asked her if this can be done for all focus's and she said yes providing they are not reported as lost or stolen, or that the account it was assigned to had an outstanding balance.

Thanks again for the info..
[Focus General] jasparagus:
Successful Unlock

Hi All,

Just wanted to report that I've got a carrier unlocked Focus v1.3. I was able to get it unlocked by calling AT&T and asking for the unlock code. The reason I gave was that my mom is going overseas and may be borrowing my phone while she's there. Took a while to wait for them to look stuff up, and they needed the IMEI number - might be easiest to look that up before calling in. Anyhow, was relatively painless.

-Jasper

[Focus General] voluptuary:
Not the same thing. What you are talking about is interop unlocking, which will let you sideload apps. What this thread is about is carrier unlocking so that you can use SIM's from carriers other than ATT (or Rogers) with the phone.
[Focus General] vmaddela:
I have unlocked a at&t focus via cellunlocker.net but i havent received any updates after 7.10(7720) . I guess it has something to do with the unlocking .
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Nothing to do with unlocking. AT&T is not offering the update...
[Focus General] Mr_Dat:
try this http://www.fastgsm.com/en/samsung/samsung/focus/unlock-code/network-unlock/wp7-unlocking

I tried and it's very good
[Focus General] wickedblue2007:
Worked

Yea it also worked for me too :)). I told them I got the phone from a friend and wanted to use it with T-Mobile. They then gave the code...

if you have a ATT Samsung focus and want the unlock code call AT&T's Customer Service they give it to you FREE.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goaway:
Recently I have bought a used X1. One day, when the battery died, after charging it, a screen with 4 colour bars appeared (red, green, blue and white). There are also some signs on the screen:

KOVS110

SPL-0.72.01iNex

MicroP1-787

MicroP2-707.

On the bottom on the screen it says "Serial".

I cannot pass through this screen to get to use my phone as always. I tried to google this on the net but found some unrelated ROM-topics that didn't help me anyway, as I'm green as grass in these things.

Any ideas what to do? Thanks in advance for your help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] varun_bv:
This might help. Disconnect the USB cable, remove the battery, then replace it and turn on the phone. As long as there is no problem, it should boot normally. But, the phone doesn't go into boot loader on it's own usually.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goaway:
Well, that didn't help. Btw, what did you mean: "disconnect usb cable"? My phone wasn't in any way connected to a PC.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
have you tried a hardreset?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
Hey guys,

For some reason, I can't mount USB unless I'm in debugging mode.

I plug the cable into my phone. The phone will bleep. I'll see the little USB logo and in the pulldown, under ONGOING, I can see it there, but usually there is two lines of text, but I only see one. When I click on it to be presented with the mount option, I hear the bleep when I click it, but nothing comes up.

Or maybe my PC isn't recognizing it unless in debugging mode? I have all the drivers installed. I'm positive I do, because it was the only way to get the super one click root. I've never had problems mounting.

On a side note, maybe it is relevant, my wifi connectivity has gotten really bad the last few days. My connection has stayed the same, and I've check all the usual PC settings, power cycle, etc. I can't check my Twitter, I can't send emails with attachments. Uninstalling and reinstalling the Samsung drivers didn't work. When in debugging mode, and I plug in, I did notice in the device manager, there would be something "ADB" popup. That's what's not showing itself in non debugging mode.

I'm not sure what I could have done. Any ideas? Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
Go in to settings, usb settings and choose mass storage, if it's set to ask on connection it sometimes doesn't bring up the mount option in the notification bar, you'd think it would mount auto magically but it doesn't.

Edit; sorry didn't read the whole post, sounds like a driver issue..

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
I figured that much. The combination of things I've attempted so far regarding the drivers has not been successful.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdmuscle:
Mounting USB on Rogers

Hey there I've noticed the same problem until I actually pulled down the top menu bar at the top where the USB symbol is. You pull that down and look for the USB settings icon tap that and choose MOUNT and or UNMOUNT.

Hope this helps....I only noticed this on Eclair 2.1 and not on Froyo where it actually brings up a dialogue box.

Just a word of advise, when you unlcok it with the unlock software from here beware you might end up with a generic or false IMEI number as I did.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
I get the drop down, and I see the USB option, but clicking on it does nothing. The PC won't recognize it.

For those who are having this issue, the only way I've manage to fix this is:

1. Uninstall Samsung drivers and delete extras manually.

2. Restart PC.

3. Reinstall driver.

4. Restart PC.

5. Plug in device and give it a few minutes.

I'm on Windows 7 64bit. I've had to do this twice so far, and it worked both times. Hope it helps.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
I had this problem also and after looking around I found several people that suggest switching to a USB port right off the mobo. After doing this it connects every time.
[HD7 General] noid:
do anyone know how to unlock the htc hd7,because unlocked hd7 phones are available in ebay. i wonder how they unlocked new hd7 so early and easily. if anyone knows about please try to post it

thanks in advance
[HD7 General] ecj123:
you can unlock on this site http://www.HTCimeiUnlock.com/
[HD7 General] angusmcintyre:
If you got your Phone through O2 in the UK, just call them, they don't usually charge for unlocking. Tell them you need to put a work sim in it and it a different provider.
[HD7 General] tai4de2:
+1 for htcimeiunlock.com

On the site they let you put in your info including carrier, model, and IMEI. They then tell you if they have the unlock code, and if so and how much it costs and how long it will take.

In my case it said 15 minutes and $25. I paid with paypal and about 15 minutes later the unlock code arrived in email. The code worked and my phone is now unlocked.

I will use them in the future.
[HD7 General] Brau0303:
Worked for me

used the link above and it just worked (no issues, Just be sure you provide the correct IMEI or you may have a problem) use IMEI from the device not your box (I have seen issues where they do not always match).

Cheers

[HD7 General] tissot201:
I used the site above but it says it can't find a code when I input my IMEI.

Help please!!! :(
[HD7 General] CyK1:
Will that website provide an unlock code for ANY hd7 that's locked to tmobile? because i'm thinking of getting one to canada and i wont be able to return it so i have to make sure that it can be unlocked!!
[HD7 General] PaullikesWINMO:
I bought mine from a nice guy through Kijiji in Toronto... HTC HD7 (T-Mobile branded) and he even had unlock code. If you post an ad there, I'm sure he'll respond. Make sure you put it in the "want to buy" section and make sure the subject line has HTC HD7 Unlock Code Wanted. It's the least I can do to send you to him as he was very fast and effecient and affordable.
[HD7 General] tissot201:
That website didn't work for me. Trying cellunlock.net now, they said they couldn't find a unlock for my imei and they have to contact HTC. Going to take a few days.

I'll give that a try if cellunlock fails. How much was it and did he e-mail the code?
[HD7 General] voodooutt:
I used www.cellunlocker.net on both my HD7's. codes arrived in about 25-30 mins and only cost 19.99

-oh both are the tmobile branded, tested with other sim cards, and works.
[HD7 General] PaullikesWINMO:
The kijiji dude was $20 but I was also buying the phone from him. He gave me the code on paper. Try the other suggested website first.
[HD7 General] ashdeman:
I unlocked my HD7 with htcimeiunlock. The phone was locked to o2 Uk. They emailed me the code within 5 minutes!
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
are y'all that are having problems sure you are entering your imei code right?
[HD7 General] mrnet_01:
same here but on T-Mobile and the code was sent within 2 minutes
[HD7 General] Wizz_AWAY:
O2 did the job in less than a day... FOR FREE...

I have bought my HD7 on PAYG - but I have a Simplicity 10 contract - as someone had suggested earlier - I have used that phone number when requesting the unlock code and in less than 24 hours they sent me the unlock code by email.
[HD7 General] tissot201:
Yup, I doubled, tripled, and quadrupled checked.
[HD7 General] jahshappybus:
still no joy here

I just bought a t-mobile branded HD7 from a store in California and have failed on both sites to get an unlock code. Keeps telling me the IMEI code is not recognized. This is a little worrying as I plan to be going back to the UK soon. Also frustrating as others on t mobile seem to have been having success.
[HD7 General] Cryos:
Might be able to get it here:

http://www.unlockitnow.com/HTC/HD7.php

This is where i got mine, took about 3 hours to get the code from HTC (used HTC- Worldwide (New Codes))
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
maybe tmous is trying to keep the phone locked down. If you got in on contract I don't think tmous will give it to you till you have had the phone 60 days. You could call them and tell them you are going overseas on business so you need the sim unlocked for overseas use. That is what I did with my hd2 before I sold it.
[HD7 General] pistol44:
Guess I'm the only one with an un-unlockable HD7 in the world. I tried 3 different legit unlock companies and all failed. I called HTC and they said the carrier locks it. I called T-Mobile and spent 2 hours on the phone discussing everything from having to get a temporary pay-as-you-go plan to having to wait 40 days for an unlock code. Now they say if I fax them the receipt they could have it the next day at best.

This would be great except like some of you I bought mine on Kijiji and I doubt I can get a receipt from the seller.

Anyone want to buy my un-unlockable HD7?
[HD7 General] robertwhamm:
Why actually yes I would, I need a phone to test applications on.

My email is robertwhamm@yahoo.com if you really do want to sell it ha.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaore:
Anyone installed the application?

Nexus one can use this UMA feature on T-mobile USA network.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigragu:
What is 'UMA' WiFi calling? Some of the Froyo ROMs have WiFi calling enabled. I am using it on Obsidian V1. Works just fine.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KerryG:
UMA = Unlicensed Mobile Access, that was the phrase used for Blackberry calling over Wifi. They are not calling it UMA for Android, simply WiFi Calling.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
The recently leaked Froyo build (JK2) has a Wifi calling app, but it is NOT UMA. UMA offers seamless "handoff" when moving to/from cellular/wifi, this app does not. Once you initiate a call via Wifi you cannot move out of range of the Wifi signal or you will lose the call.

It is primarily intended as a solution for people traveling, or people who have crappy voice signal in their homes or at work. So on and so forth..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaeldonovan:
tmobile has a new app they have got from another vendor which they rolled out on mytouch 4g and couple of other devices (it is UMA) so it should be coming to vibrant as well..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boystuff:
the mytouch 4g app is the same as the one you can download on the themes/apps forum. again not uma as it does not allow seamless integration of wifi/gsm. if you connect via wifi, and unplug your router the call is dropped, where is on UMA the phone auto switches back to gsm. as far as I've tested this app is only Working on Froyo, and it works OK, for many it runs in the background. CONSTANTLY and causes UI Lag and frame rate issues when opening menus.
[Vibrant General] Spokenblurb:
Does froyo recognize the full 512mb of ram, if so does this lend itself to better performance
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
no

it recognizes 340 something or 380 something
[Vibrant General] novafluxx:
What's that other space used for? Why isn't it available?
[Vibrant General] jeremiah_mn:
In the leaked tmo froyo there is 304 available. The rest of it I believe is used for video/graphic procesing and other core processes.
[Vibrant General] thcnme956:
Not the whole 512 but I'm using Eugenes Unofficial TMO 2.2 Froyo and it is a good amount faster, especially browsing.
[Vibrant General] jayprime:

I've heard rooting voids your warranty but I cant use the screen to restore it through the phone. Please help
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ariccitelli:
Assuming the phone is still actually functional, you can ODIN it...you should only need the hardware buttons (and proper timing) for that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigragu:

[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
I have noticed now several time when on long calls I hear a clicking sound and some times several times during the call. It almost sounds like a electrical short sound. The first time I heard it I pulled it away from my ear and wiped the phone off thinking it might have been some sweat getting in the speaker. But then it did it again.

Does anyone else have this or noticed this?
[myTouch 4G General] PrisonerOfDoom:
Yes, every HTC phone I have owned does this and it drives me crazy! Don't have a clue what causes it.
[myTouch 4G General] lghorn:
I've had mine over a week now and never noticed any strange sounds through the earpiece.

The speakerphone, on the other hand, is horrendous! I'm on conference calls on my phone several times a week, and the sound and clarity of the MT4G's speaker is crap. Luckily, most everything else rocks.
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
I wonder if it could be a reception issue or if you are on the edges between towers? I have never had this with any other phone though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] peterbeer:
Hi, this is my first post on this forum so first of all I would like to appolagise for all the things I've either just done wrong, or am about too....

I am trying to install android on to my phone, I am on the stock rom but have succsesfully installed HSPL3 and radio version 2.11.50.20.

I have tried a few builds of Android but allways have one of 2 results.

Once I've run clrcad followed by harlet, it tells me I'm booting to linux. The screen then goes black, it runs about 8 lines of code, stops there and changes to a black screen with a green HTC. Where it remains indefinatly.

A friend with anouther HD2 has android working fine on his device, and altho he has a custom rom he tells me its not essential, as ive read up on the potential risks I would rather stick with the stock but will change if thats whats causing the problem.

I would really appreciate some suggestions, thanks in advance for your time and help.

Peter
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] peterbeer:
forgot to add, the second result is the screen going blue indefinatly, which I presume from my extensive knowledge.........lol is a blue screen of death
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malaeus:
upgrade your radio, im on 2.12.50, and the newest is 2.15.50

also, try a modded windows mobile rom, i use standard energy with no issues.

also, make sure you only have that one android build on your SD card. and that it's a new build, not an ancient one. (check http://android.hd2roms.com/)

you shouldnt have any more issues.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] peterbeer:
Thanks for the advice, unfortunatly before seeing your post I uprgraded too chuckeys rom, not energy, but get the exact same error... Leads me to beleive the problem is elsewhere. Will keep trying tho :) hope its worth it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ganon4:
Same problem here, tried to change my wm rom and didn't work. I'm looking tonight if I can find a solution...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ganon4:
A little disclaimer :p

I will not be for any damage that may be caused to your device, HSPL remove warranty so be carefull. Don't forget to have more than 50% of battery remaining before the process !

So, maybe here is the solution:

I've try again with differents roms, changing my wm rom etc. and nothing works.

But, at the end I've change my radio rom to Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2 found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787

Then installed Chucky GTX Lite rom found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=618787

And to finish I've installed the bootloader and download MDJFroYoRevolution 1.4 with android 2.2

I've use the 512 Data img too (just unzip your MDJFroYoRevolution, take the 512 or 1Go file and put this file on your Android root.) isn't necessary but takes less time to work first time.

After that still not working so I managed to try to remove all files from my sd card (2Go only) and I put on ONLY MDJFroYoRevolution 1.4+512Mo Data img !

Then after 10mn~ it works ! :D

I think the bug is only because sd card haven't enough space to create all files so the HTC logo stuck and no error message appear.

Don't forget to install the bootloader on your memory internal storage! and not the on the sd card!

Good luck everyone and I hope it will help.

ps: sorry for my english :) hope you understand anything :D
