I fought with this same problem for a while, trying every setting i found in all the threads. One way i finally found that allowed me to send and recieve was to make 2 APN's, one with the standard epc.tmobile.com and nothing else, and another named t-mobile mms with the following settings:

APN: T-Mobile MMS

Proxy: None

Port: None

Username :none

Password: none

Server: none

MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms.wapenc

MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.050

MMS port: 8080

MCC: 310

I got the idea for using multiple APN's when i looked at my girlfriend's my touch slide's settings. Hope that helps!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Hello XDA community!

So totally my first post, regular beginner allowances please :/

I bought an HTC Desire a few weeks ago and rooted it last week. My original goal was to remove some bloatware as this is something i always do on my PCs and was understanding that it was something i could do on my phone as well.

I used the unrEVOked3 rooting method which worked out quite well, I did manage to get 1 red warning screen but that was done performing actions no where described in the rooting process.... :P

I then installed and paid for titanium back up as this seemed like the standard back up app from what I read and also understood it would let me remove the bloatware.

However once i removed the apps with titanium I noticed they returned after a reboot. I did some research online and then tried to remove them with Root explorer, however the same thing happened.

Upon doing some more investigation I have come to believe this is do to my phones Secuflag setting of S-off and how it prevents altering the /system folder where these apps are located.

I starting looking into S-off and ended up back at unrEVOked's site investigating unrEVOked forever. I read as much as I could on this and figured i would give it a shot, however it failed which I now believe to be because my radio version was too new.

I am now looking at the Alpha Rev method for getting S-off. I have come across some information on XDA that says altering the Secuflag is one of the few things that can actually brick your phone, along with altering your radio version.

So I am nearing the decision to perform the alpha rev S-off but I figured I would risked looking like a scrub on the forum and asking n00b questions at the benefit of getting the OK on my actions from someone who is more confident in their knowledge then myself.

So here come my questions:

Will Alpha-Rev work with my radio version of 5.11.05.27.

Will the live CD method work if I virtually mount the ISO or do i need to actually burn the disc.

Is there another method I could use to remove the bloatware without risking bricking my phone.

I read alot about lag fixes for other phones, is there a known one for the stock Desire rom ?

Some additional information on my phone

Bravo PVT3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT 0.93.0001

MICROP 051d

Radio 5.11.05.27

clockworkmod 2.5.0.7

Thanks in advance for any and all help. I really love this site and can't read enough.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Search on removing system apps with adb while in recovery. Then there is no need to S-off.

If you still want to S-off read the AlphaRev site careful and you should be good. There is also a tutorial thread how to S-off which also mentions the virtual machine way. (used it my self)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Thanks for the help ! I have seen some ADB tuts for removing apps but i didn't to closely because i figured i would hit the same wall.

I will probably S-off at some point in the future but one step at a time I suppose.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Don't know what you mean, if you are rooted you can remove system apps while in recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Hey,

I just successfully removed the Stock widget via adb as a test. thanks for the help. I will now go through the process of removing all the stuff i want off of there.

I am rooted, I am not sure where you were confused on my last comment. but I am on the right track now for removing bloatware thanks again !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
I was confused about the wall you hit, but if you successfully removed something it's fine. Just make sure you do a nandroid before removing more stuff and keep in mined you can't remove everything without consequences.

The apps listed here should be safe to remove.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Thank you for the additional list of apks which I can remove. I was using one from cyanogen also as a guide.

There is one app which I seemingly cannot find in /system. Its listed in my app drawer as Asphalt 5 [ its a stupid racing game ] In titanium backup once deleted it shows. com.gameloft.something something [ not looking at TB right now ] however i cannot find either names in /system and the game still shows up in my app drawer, IT REALLY BUGS ME. I actually work in the video game industry and having such a **** game from a **** company on my phone is like chewing chalk for me.

any ideas ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
I don't think that the game is in the system partition, I bet it's in data/app. But if you want to remove data apps just go to market or settings-applications-manage applications and uninstall it from there.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat_For_Sale:
Yea, I had tried removing it via the settings > application route and uninstall was grey'd out. That was my first like "umm i own this phone why can't I do this moment" which lead to everything since then.

Its not in the "My apps" list in the market place either. Its really weird did shows no file size in the manage applications menu. like everything is 0.0 kb. I am going to try to do a full install of it tonight when i get back on wifi ( is a big d/l ) then see if it shows up somewhere....

the g2 is freeee! :D

definite two year ride with whatever i choose coming up.

should i spring for it or just get the mytouch for $100 like i was going too?!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] my4gpimp:
get the MT4G you'll like it more.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KCRic:
I don't know, seems that there is more development going on with the g2 than the mytouch 4g, also the g3 has a hard keyboard if that's something you like. The mytouch series isn't really renowned for their update speed either - I know from having the slide... still no 2.2

Anyway, you should make the choice based on your wants and needs. If you want to go with the all out android experience, roms, overclocking, the whole shebang - get the g2. If you want a no frills, good looking, user friendly, and fast android experience - go with the MT4G.

Once last thing. Both are 4G, however, the MT4G is 21.1Mbps and the G2 is 14.4Mbps. It will be a while before either one can reach those max speeds so that's not a huge factor currently.

Just my opinion on this matter.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] flinkisme:
My thinking is that if you want to hack around, go with the G2.

Hello everyone. How do I download liberty toolbox?
[Droid X General] wormeyman:
re-download your rom and then reflash?
[Droid X General] Ben's:
Did you make a nandroid back up with bootstrap? If you didn't, then whatever it was that you backed up were apps and such, there is no backing up without some kind of nandroid backup. If you did boot into ClockwordMod Recovery, go to backup and restore, Restore and there should be the file you backed up.

You will have to start over with the fresh slate you have and if you bricked your phone or something is not working propertly, you will have to SBF with the full SBF .320 file with RSD Lite 4.8 or greater.

Goodluck.

Yeah, and that's the problem. In Windows Mobile, I just enter the phone number of the SMSC.

SMSC is usually a phone number.

I checked with my provider (Vodafone NL) and it is a phone number.

If it is not on Android, then I don't know what it is :D

I read on Nokia (Symbian), the SMSC can be entered as phone number as well.

Probably Android is not using standard format for SMSC? At least on the user interface (to update).

solution from www google com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=078232a74455bbf0&hl=en

(sorry, xda don't let me to post links)

OK, I managed to fix this. I'll post the answer because this was buried deep and is a pain.

Answer is here:

http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-926771.html

The relevant text is below. One thing I'd say is that the link is a bit vague on how to do the conversion. You need to put your SMSC number in the page, clear the rest of the info and press convert. You then need to ignore the numbers after 11.

For example, my vodafone +447785016005 goes to 0791447758100650110000910000AA00, which shortens to 079144775810065011. Go to the *#*#4636#*#* menu and put that in SMSC and hit update. Messages now send!!!. Hopefully I can save someone else the grief I've had all day...

"
to update the SMSC in android,

the number first need to be encoded

please use below url to encode the SMSC

http://www.twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode

for example, if your SMSC is number is +4531300000,

after encode, it is 0691541303000011

put this in the info page, and it will work.
