[Vibrant General] ZX3ZX4:
androidmonkey-

Here is my recollection. I bought my Vibrant the first week it came out and it took me a few days to realize that the GPS was highly unreliable and often essentially non-functional, so I, too, messed with the settings. As a result of the JI6 update, several of the settings were changed: 1) they were different from what the phone came with stock, and 2) different from what I had changed them to. Not everything got changed, and I can't document anymore what was and wasn't affected. But that was the first thing I checked once the update was installed. My phone is not rooted. Since the update, I've had good GPS, typically: Lock on 8-9 out of 11-12 satellites in about 20 seconds in any weather (inside lock takes about a minute and I need to be relatively close to a window); accuracy within 20 ft, sometimes less than 15; navigation stays on track.

Here are my settings now for LBS Test Mode

Server FQDN Type: Auto Config

Server: h-slp.mnc260.mcc310.pub.3gpp

I know in the US they are, but what about in the UK?
[Streak 5 General] GeorgijSapkin:
Just got one from Amazon UK. It's 2.1. Maybe Dell sells 2.2 directly.
[Streak 5 General] Super Chimp:
That's odd. I thought the unlocked ones never got 2.1 only the O2 ones.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] 2canSAM:
I know you can flash a Sprint touch Pro to the Verison Network but I wanted to go the other way. If I have a Verizon TP2 can I flash or use it on the Sprint network? Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] defaultdotxbe:
technically yes, but good luck getting sprint to activate it, as a matter of policy they wont activate any phone that doesnt have their logo on it (verizon actually has the same policy)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Dr.8820:
legally, it'll never happen.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] aussiepunk:
So technically if one was to try it and then sweet-talk Sprint into it, how would one go about it? Do you have to flash the Sprint version of the Radio? I already tried wiping and then just selecting "Sprint" using Mighty Mike's MightyROM carrier selection tool
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ilikepu:
your going to have to create a ticket with sprint to add the esn to sprint but it will take 7-15 business days
[G2 and Desire Z General] basmareck:
Hello guys

I am for a big time without my HTC, I owned a HTC Raphael wich operated with wm 6.5 flashed by me and unblocked with jailbreak.

However my fuze got broken, and I stood a long time without a good phone, and now I am going to travel and decided to buy one.

So, I liked so much my fuze, because it worked with WM, and I've got more facilities downloading programs.

I have ever liked WM more than MAC(from iphone) by the apps, and all. The other feature I liked ou fuze was the QWERTY, wich there is on the DESIRE Z.

Can I flash the newest windows(7) on this Desire? Or only work on android? Wich is the apps available for this android? Is it feels like windows? or the codification of programs are all different?

Please help me, becaus if there is not many apps, I will choose by the HTC HD7 or IPHONE(even without QUERTY)

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheRomMistress:
You can not flash WM onto an Android device...you can however Flash Android onto WM. DO NOT get an iPhone!

If you like the flexbility of porting different OS on your device, you may want to look into HD2. WM7 project is underway for HD2 and Android is fully portable with a few snags here and there. If you simply want the option of a lot of apps, I would go with DZ as the Android marketplace is much better then WM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr123:
If you like wimo, you'll absolutely love ANDROID. Wimo blows goat chunks. You can do more with Android, look at smartphone market share... wimo is barely a blip... counted in the "other". Android is #1, even making RIM look foolish now. There's a REASON for it.... absolute and unquestionable superiority.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
I came from WinMo on a Touch Pro 2 to Android on the DZ. And you couldn't pay me to go back, I love the combination of DZ/Android ! It's vastly superior. WP7 looks cool but it's very very new and seems to be lacking a lot of stuff (bear in mind that the devs are still trying to figure out how to do custom ROMs on WP7).

Has anyone managed to use Managed Exchange Web Services 1.1 in Visual Studio 2010?

Everytime I try to compile something with it, it complains about being dependent on System.Net... I have the Express C# 2010 version.

I can't figure out what to do next... Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] GuestK00306:
You most likely won't be able to use the managed version of the exchange classes as they're not compiled for Silverlight/WP7.

They are just a wrapper for the web services though, so you could interact with those directly:

I'm a droid newb. I did my first custom ROM flash a couple of weeks ago...Axura B4. I thought I would give Perception Build 5 a try to see the difference.

After flashing the ROM, my phone keeps giving me a 1274/29028 blocks mount: mounting/dev/block/loop2 on /dbdata failed: Invalid argument error. I am a droid newb, and I have no idea what this means, or how to fix it. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to steer me in the right direction??? Please!

Blinky, Guardian_Bob's BLN blinker app, has been posted in the Captivate forum. Version 2.1.2 works on the Fascinate.

Installation:

Download blinky-lights-2.1.2.zip and flash it in CWM
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] rsmiff:
Won't install. Might need some dev to work on a fasc.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] s44:
The newest version of Blinky (2.1.2) works correctly on the Fascinate! (Yes, I tested it.)

Installation takes a couple of steps, since the author hasn't put 2.1.2 into a full flash package yet:

(a) Download blinky-lights-2.1.1.zip and flash it in CWM

(b) With Root Explorer, adb, or the terminal, go to /data/app and delete the unrecognized Blinky apk (com.kin.blinky-1.apk) that CWM put in there

(c) Download Blinky_v2.1.2.apk and sideload it (click to let Android install it)

Just flash blinky-lights.2.1.2.zip in CWM
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] frostman89:
Thanks for the heads up. Couldn't get the test to show the notification, but when I sent myself a text, was able to test the settings out that way.

i assume this will use much less battery life then just leaving the softkeys lit all the time.. is that true?

I'll beat on the notification issue with my next version, as well as try to remove the need for a flashable part.

If you have issues, suggestions, etc. Let me know.

Oh and I added a 2.1.2.zip file which should just be flashable now.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] rsmiff:
I can't seem to get it to work. I already have BLN working but when I install the blinky app it stops working all together. If I uninstall the blinky app my BLN starts working again. Weird.

When you run Blinky, does it say enhanced BLN is found?

I flashed this. Didn't do anything...
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] s44:
Yeah, it was part of the multi-step process that's now obsolete. However, now that you have the lib files on your phone, just go to the Captivate thread and download/sideload the 2.1.2 apk. Should work. ;)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] rsmiff:
I don't recall seeing that. I'll try again with the new zip.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I understand that they don't allow them in ROM's and to be discussed on XDA. My question is in regards to moderators deleting threads but seem to have no issue with people asking about free Wifi tethering.

Technically you're supposed to pay Sprint for that feature but a lot of ROM's include the Wifi Tether app for free. I just don't understand how some things are swept under a rug and other things are accepted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Winning#:
Who knows what the answer to this is brother. But it for Damn sure seems like you are still stuck on The Ultimate Droid thread being deleted. I read that whole thread and you were basically flaming on XDA for making people adhere to the rules. Take the Ultimate Droid rants elsewhere because we all know when you talk about closing a thread in this post its in regard to that Rom thread being closed. And I would say if people were trying to profit off of posting tethering stuff like the dev of the ultimate Droid was then that would be morally and legally wrong. Stop crying.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I'm just looking for an answer to a question. You didn't even remotely touch on the topic at hand. I just want to know what people think about being able to tether for free and how many ROM's on this website have it included. If you visited this website as much as I do you'd understand why I'm bringing this up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Winning#:
Actually, I do on a daily basis hence the xda app on my phone :). And I did touch on it, no one is trying to profit off of tether, its kind of the same as downloading music.. the people who get sued and stuff by the riaa are those who try to profit from the music they didn't buy. Either way its not morally one hundred percent okay but its not like were killing anyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
The wifi tether app is free, so it can be included. Swype ask xda to remove it, even though it was free, so it had to be removed. Fancy widget was removed because it was a direct ripoff of a HTC program. Someones pay wallpaper was removed because it is warez. If sprint decided to go after the author of wifi tether, I'm sure XDA would force its removal.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Winning#:
Agreed, you know Sprint has employees who check xda for legal stuff. I'm sure if they had a problem with this they would have done something by now. Especially as many updates as we have had by now Sprint could block tether apps besides their own if they really cared. Just as they patch root exploits.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandpa:
First of all, I think the main aim of the moderators/site owners is to maintain the popularity and relevance of this site. I am sure Sprint is aware of the Wifi Tether App in all the ROMS given the numerous sprint employees that post here regularly. If it bothered Sprint the site would hear about it and probably make a decision at that point. I doubt Sprint cares given the free publicity their devices get here.

Now if the WiFi tether app itself was being sold for profit and was included for free(warez) then I am sure the developers would mind which several of them probably have when their apps were included in ROMS.

You seem to expect the moderators to spend their time analyzing every single thread and deliver some kind of justice. That is not going to happen, their aim is to keep the site trouble-free, popular and relevant. Even if it means to err on the side of caution and sideline one/two developers who have been known to create issues.

If I felt as strongly as you do about the issue I would put my money where my mouth is and delete my account on this site and join somewhere I felt more comfortable. Would save me a lot of aggravation.

Hope this had made it easier to understand.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
Pretty much that's what it is. The only difference is that one person "steals" and people don't get their props/recognition. I guess it's OK to steal and get out of paying for a feature while racking up bandwidth. People say I'm complaining about this and that but when it comes down to it they look stupid because they are also doing shady **** too.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fachadick:
My 2 cents for what its worth.

WiFi tethering is a functionality built into froyo. In order to get it working, the feature is either hacked to remove Sprint authentication, or you can download another app that allows the same functionality. You'll also note that "sprint WiFi tethering" is not available as a standalone app from the market - again, its already built into the software of the phone. This is no different than the hack that allowed wireless n for WiFi, before it was available, or to set your phone to pick up Verizon towers for better coverage. The phone already supported that functionality, it just took some hacks to get it working.

The other items mentioned as warez are not inherently built into the phones. Devs (most of them ordinary guys like us), have an idea for a great app, work on them for days/weeks/months and may decide to release them for a fee when complete. Xda is a developers forum, with stress on developers. It only stands to reason that they would take a hard line when people give away those paid apps for free.

And to the op, if you were really interested in getting answers to your questions, you could have easily sent a pm to a mod. By starting this thread, you obviously just wanted to stir the pot some more. It's been said before, there are other sites that don't care about the all the work devs put into their apps, where you can get all the free apps you want without paying for them. Xda is simply not that kind of forum.

technically the wifi tether is built into android naturally, carriers lock that down to add on a cost to unlimited data that your already paying for

This is an issue, do to if Im already paying for unlimited data, what clarifies it to what kind of data it has to be. Is the internet not the internet, these kind of add-on fees are what telco's your trying to push on to wire lines ( unsuccessful so far, i for get the name of the bill). Bt the mobile is a very grey area right now, this is also why ATT for one has a tiered system now

Hi

is there a way to get the original UI onto 2.2 (official build)? I like the speed improvement, multitouch, wifi hotspot and many features of froyo, but I really loved the top panel with app drawer and wireless manager from stock, and also menu "bubbles" next to menu button and landscape keyboard with numpad (swype is nice for portrait, but can't handle two thumbs in landscape) and the 8x4 non-overlapping homescreens

thanks
[Streak 5 General] rodjordan:
I think the short answer is no.

If you don't need some of the 2.2 features, stsy with 2.1. I use launcher pro, if you really miss the toggle data and wifi you can add a link to the activity which directly shows the old pop up menu with wifi & data toggles.... (see one of my previous posts for details)
[Streak 5 General] pavelherrmann:
Well I never had 2.1, only used official ROMs on my unlocked EU streak, and I don't like having to change that

toggle wifi is on widget, but toggle 3G data is really missed (don't have launcherpro and thus can't add the activity), as the streak can kill battery overnight when left to sync mails every 5 or 10 minutes (which is the right interval when I work with the phone and data connection is active)

EDIT: is the source code for dell UI mods available for downloads? I hate the stage so much I might try to port the old one myself...
[Streak 5 General] schizo:
you can use extendedcontrol to add those toggles in the homescreen... and in fact in froyo you have standard setting option to turn off your data connection during the user definable off-peak hours (let's say between 21.00 to 06.00 - in 24 hour format)
