I can't reach the MFG. Everytime I try ##634# Call nothing happens.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] __ow:
Hey xbox.

Was digging further into LG's MFG app, this time inspecting the network setup parts using the provisioning calls. Wanting more meat on me bones before rushing into a system restore again I checked out the network setup from the LGE store which you edited, and Copy FileOperations in a provxml-string does indeed work in case you haven't had any reports on this matter yet. Can't answer however your altered network setup works though.

Anyway, I now sport a fully custom colored system, including silverlight apps. Ie successful file copy operations from app install dir to \Windows on an LG.

Delete seemingly didn't work though, nor editing theme registry values but didn't investigate that further since LG's registry COM calls already work.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] xboxmod:
So you confirm we can deploy custom provmxml

on lg device?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] __ow:
I can confirm that the ChangeConfigXML-call supports the Copy FileOperation of a custom provxml.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] megagprime:
So how can we do this?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] megagprime:
please share with the world!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Megaprime and xboxmod, have you checked the library my IE Search Switcher project uses? I have working ProvXML on LG devices. It's only tested with registry write, though.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Interesting. I was unable to do registry write with COM, so I implemented it in ProvXML and according to my LG testers it works. I'm the developer of the IE Search Switcher app, and the source is available for download if you want to take a look at the library code that I'm using.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] megagprime:
I can write to certain parts of my registry (like searchscope) but can not write to other parts (audio\10 camera shutter)

When I change the value it shows its changed but then I refresh and its back to its original value :/
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] __ow:
From my limited testing it seems registry write access through provxml is limited on LGs, but I have yet to try a registry value which can't be written with the MFG app or its COM classes.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] megagprime:
ya and how can we use those to modify our registries?

Uncool is it won't let me set the BypassDeviceGain to 0 :( it says it does but shapmans regeditor still says 1 and the shutter sound still goes off :@

It lets me set it, but I also still get the shutter sound.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] HyperMatrix:
Hmm...I have an LG Optimus 7 from Telus, unlocked with carrier code then broken with Chevron. Going through LG's own developer registry editor, I was able to kill off the shutter sound.

One thing to watch for is that you don't put any extra " signs, for example when you shouldn't be putting any, and you also choose dword or string data type appropriately.

The LG editor has no restrictions, but the downside is that it's very primitive. But it does work!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] guizzy:
Ok, so I have a Telus-branded LG Optimus 7, unlocked and connected with Rogers. MMS doesn't work. The Network Setup app doesn't work, but it's possible to change the network settings through MFG, so Network Setup shouldn't be necessary (as all it does anyway is change which XML is used).

There is no Rogers XML file on my LG phone (probably because they don't sell any WP7 device with Rogers).

Does this thread mean there is a way of changing (or adding) to the provisioning XML files provided by LG?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] carlander:
Full read and write rights to the registry on LG Optimus 7

You can use LG native NewSysInfoComDLL.dll to get full read and write rights to the registry on LG Optimus 7.

You can find that dll in LG OEM Apps, MFG.xap or the Network Setup app.

MFG.xap in \Windows can be extracted with Windows Phone Device Manager.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] BakedGoodsX:
I'm also wondering if there's a way to edit the TELUS .xml file and use the Rogers MMS information to get MMS going?

Is there a way to extract (or at least edit) that .xml file?

Hi

I bought a new xperia mini pro mobile and was wondering how can i transfer all my contacts from my old mobile to new one.

All contacts was saved in my old phone and not in sim. I tried to send all the contacts via bluetooth and it worked, but in the middle it stopped and only half of the contacts was transferred, i tried once again sending it but it was unsuccessful. I also tried to delete all the contacts in mini pro but i'm unable to do it. Searched in net how to delete the contacts and it referred me to go to settings, application, manage application and clear contacts, but there is no such option available as clear contacts under manage application.

Your suggestions and ideas will be really helpful for me. Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stan.s:
You don't mention which os version you're on. On my X10a w/ 2.1 when I go into the phonebook I can press the menu button for the delete contacts and mark all for deletion. I think on the 1.6 version a long press on the contact will also bring up the submenu to delete.

Sony has a Sync app which may be on your phone. The web portion which you can use with a pc has instructions on how to configure and upload from your old phone and you could then tell the app on your mini to overwrite your contacts, after editing them if needed.

Also if your old phone supports vcf format and saves of all the contacts then you could put the file on your phone's SD card and import that.

MMS Issues

God knows I've tried just about all the ROMs in the forum and unless it's either the stock rom or one of the leaked ones, Touchwiz MMS has never worked. If I used the custom ROMs MMS suite it's fine. As soon as I mod it for Touchwiz MMS it pukes.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandonkahn:
ive tested almost every rom and i always have my contacts save through sim and my mms is flawless every time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
I've had this issue a few times. I do NOT save my contacts to phone or sim, they are ONLY in my Google account. I finally went and edited all my contacts on the Google Contacts website to remove the dashes and 1s, and now it works fine every time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahnburner:
Same story here. Removed the dashes and now MMS messages send perfectly.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScratchSF:
As a way of troubleshooting why it seems to works for some people and not at all for others (even when considering the no-dash, no-paren formatting), it might make sense for people to post their configuration:

Think I'm interested in learning if people who are having this problem are

* syncing to Google,

* not syncing with Google,

* if they are typing in a phone number,

* if they are looking up a contact by name,

* if they are replying to a sent message,

* and so on.

My thought is that if we provide a little detail about each configuration - especially those that aren't working, that we might be able to figure out what's really going on.

Thanks.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feelx77:
So far seems the majority of people are using the "Cloud" Google/Gmail Account to store their contacts and do not have the "Error In Server Response" problem. Few SIM card saving people said they have an issue but most of those have always seemed to work. Nobody has voted saving to their Phones as of yet....

Mainly cause SIM only saves basic information...the Name & the phone number so little room for error in storing the Contact data.

Contacts saved to Phone can save pictures, addresses, e-mails etc etc so I think because of that ability to save additional information it affects formatting somehow when the number is pulled and transferred over to the MMS messaging when creating a new picture message to send.

Seems like best answer for everyone is to use their Gmail/Google account to save & edit their Contacts if saving to Phone keeps causing the problem. Which is probably what I will do but have been avoiding because I do not want to see all my Gmail contacts and e-mail contacts on the phone at the same time hence why I liked keeping a clean Contacts list primarily on my phone.

***I Love all the people that voted I'm retarded :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
feelx77, it has nothing to do where the contact is saved, and EVERYTHING to with whether or not there are dashes in the phone number.

A phone number with dashes, ie: 000-000-0000 = "error in server response", every time, no exceptions.

A phone number without dashes, ie: 0000000000 = works fine.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feelx77:
Ah, but it does matter where it saved because certain locations willl or will not let you edit the dashes out and/or because SIM already saves the contact information in a basic information format without pictures, addresses, e-mails etc etc. Which is stated in my lenghty long post. Removing the dashes is already a well known solution but depending on where contacts are saved it may not allow the editin gor it may still not work with or without adding the 1 or +1 as well.

I'm full aware of the dashes removal trick. Hence why I recommended that maybe the MMS.apk (Touchwiz Version Messaging Program) or the Contacts.apk that hands over the contacts header to the MMS.apk should be rewritten/reprogrammed to automatically remove dashes in the phone number header regardless of what saved source was used IE: Gmail, SIM, or Phone.

Also this "Error In Server Response" is strictly in regards to MMS (Picture Messaging when creating a new picture message and selecting existing Contacts from within the Touchwiz Messaging app. This is not in regards to standard SMS (text messaing)

Clarified further? ;)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feelx77:
BUMP

Its been a while so thought to BUMP for more poll statistics etc.

I finally caved last month and just moved my contacts over to my Google/Gmail account and as expected, as already known, I've had no problems sending MMS that way or off my SIM card. Just gave up trying to fix or get MMS Picture Messaging to work with having my contacts saved to the phone. Only saved contacts saved to the phones memory always returned the "Error In Server Response" when selcting a contact in the drop down in the messaing app.

Over all I'm going to like using Google/Gmail saved contacts better, was just avoiding as I was too lazy to port them all over and the error or issue should not have existed in the first place using phone saved contacts.

Just wanted to share, and BUMP this thread for anyone still having issues or wanting to vote in the poll. Laterz...

I'm not a huge fan of Sense in general, but the Sense camera app is imo much better than the stock one so I was wondering if it was possible to flash the EVO or Incredible camera on an AOSP and be able to use the camera app. I tried searching the forums for this one, but nothing turned up. Thanks guys!

same reason for me...I know IncredibleDoes had an AOSP ROM with the Sense camera, I just wish there was a way to make an update.zip or a working .apk for every AOSP rom.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wdfowty:
It's been done on the nexus one, on Enomther's TheOfficial NexusOne rom. There is an update.zip for adding the HTC cam, and restoring the stock cam. Do a diff on these update zips, and try to find the differences (most likely found in framework files), and apply them to the rom of your choosing.

This may require some smali/baksmali know-how, but it's achievable.

Original Thread

HTC Cam

Stock Cam

NOTE! DO NOT FLASH THESE ZIPS, THEY PROBABLY (read: MOST LIKELY) WILL NOT WORK. You have been warned.

If you want to flash it, do so with a nandroid backup of your current rom on hand.

PS This may have already been done for CM on the nexus, but I can't remember correctly where (or if) I actually saw it.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] gaelynx:
I currently have a voice + data + sms plan with Fido in Canada.

I don't use much voice and sms on my SGS. So I'm planning to use a cheap pre-paid plan with a simple dumb phone. But I still want to use 3G data on my SGS.

Data plans are usually for laptops and ain't cheap. I just need 500MB per month.

Then I found out that Bell have Data plans for tablets.

$20 per month for 500 MB, that's perfect for me. And that's data only.

Now I'm not entirely sure that this plan will work with my SGS.

I have the I9000M Bell Vibrant version of the SGS, and I think it should have the same 3G network connection as the Galaxy Tab, so if I pop in the SIM card it should work. I asked someone from bell to be sure:

I don't see why a data plan for Galaxy Tab wouldn't work on a Galaxy S...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
I dont see why Bell charges $20 for 500mb on a tablet but charges $25 to add a 500mb data plan to your phone......
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nightmare56:
Because more people use data plans on their phones than there are people with tablets. its all about the money.....

[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
[obligatory "Canada's big 3 suck" comment]

Rather than go into detail about the specific device, why not just state that you have purchased your own tablet and want to subscribe to the tablet data plan @ $20 / month. Keep it simple so they don't need to navigate down their scripts and shut you out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zorxd:
Yep, the $20 plan works.

You can even get the pre-paid $15/250MB plan.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gaelynx:
The unlimited voice data sms plan for $40 from wind mobile seems to be the best solution for heavy usage.

But I'm a low usage person. I seldom call or sms. I mostly use data to communicate with my relatives.

For low usage, it's cheaper to use pre-paid voice & sms on a separate dumb phone.

But I don't see the point of using an android phone without a data plan. So for my SGS, the solution is a Data only plan.

Both rogers and bell seems to have these cheaper plans:

$20 for 500 MB flex plan

$15 for 250 MB pre-paid

Actually I know I only use 150 MB per month in average (plus wifi usage at home and office) so the pre paid plan is perfect for my SGS.

But today I went to both a rogers shop and a bell booth and I pretended that I had a Galaxy Tab at home and wanted to use a data plan with it. I asked to buy the SIM card right away but they ask me to bring the device to do the setup...

Damn it!

Fido had an unlimited plan?

Cancelled my data service with them last year ... overcharging hard, so I'd rather use starbucks wifi than pay Fido to mess with me.

Even with data and voicemail gone I'm still coughing up close to 40 a month. I've seriously been thinking about moving to Wind. I have an international i9000 so that should make it easy to cross over, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zorxd:
Nope. The I9000M is 850/1900/2100 MHz.

Try again. Go to an other store. Or maybe a Futureshop/Best Buy. I know you can do it. The only thing that sucks is that you can't have a pre-paid voice plan + pre paid data plan on the same SIM card.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
1) Hit other stores

2) Insist (politely) that you'd like to just buy the SIM and plan at the moment. You can't afford the time to go back and forth and you're familiar with the setup)

or

3) Can you purchase that plan online or via their 800 #?
