[EVO 4G General] cosine83:
When you upgrade your phone with your yearly upgrade and renew your contract it will affect you. Regardless if it's a 4G phone or not. So long as it has one of the smartphone OSes on it, it will get that $10 addition for uncapped data. But, if you're on a non-4G phone now and don't plan to upgrade then you won't get this charge even when you renew your contract, judging by the language.
[EVO 4G General] tomh1979:
Now only if my Evo could operate at 3g speeds that would be freaking awesome.

FYI: 70Kbps is not acceptable for 3g speeds, wtf.
[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
Yea, it would have been more consumer friendly just to raise rates 10$ and do away with the premium data fee altogether. People get pissy about extra fees.
[EVO 4G General] david279:
If they did that then it would be a way out of your contract for sure. They don't want that.
[EVO 4G General] strung:
I think they do it as a fee because then it's not affected by any plan discouts, i.e. it remains $10 flat.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
If that's what it takes to avoid some insane tiered data plan than I'm on board with that. Actually sorta surprised by this.

[EVO 4G General] a1platnum:
Why are u current users freaking. It specifically says NEW or upgrading. Just sounds like their getting ready for some more phones on the EVO level. Not to mention balancing all the free tethering going on. :rolleyes:

Sent via HTC Supersonic: EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] noxipoo:
will this allow evo owners to break the 2 year contract?
[EVO 4G General] EndlessDissent:
This won't affect anyone with an Evo.
[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
Well like this change, it would apply to new contracts so there would be no way to cancel your contract.

Isn't there fine print saying prices can change?
[EVO 4G General] Samzebian:
let me get this straight: if you upgrade to a 3g only phone, it included UNLIMITED (NO-CAP) data with the necessary $10 fee, correct? Because if this is true then I really don't care too much, but if it's not unlimited then this is stupid.

I looked in the press release and didn't find any fine print saying it was an "unlimited plan" (meaning 2gb cap or 5gb cap or some crap)

Also, does this mean that current Evo owners will have unlimited 3G usage along with 4G, or do we get that when we upgrade to our next phone? (even a 4G phone?)

Does this possibly mean we could get charged this PLUS the $10 unlimited 4G charge when upgrading to our next 4G phone?

If any of this bs starts happening, I'll switch. If the 1 year upgrade is removed for every sprint premier member that suddenly becomes a sprint premier silver member, I'll switch. It's crap like this that loses customers. I don't care if clearwire is bringing Sprint closer to bankruptcy, nor do I care that Sprint is already having financial problems, by doing things like this they will elevate it FURTHER by losing MORE customers and gaining LESS! Yea, they might get more money from the customers that don't decide to go to another carrier, but ideally they would want to get money from new customers (in the longrun)

This is a short-term, short-sighted mistake on Sprint's part (if it proves to be true) and could lead them to chapter 7 bankruptcy
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] BEERSHARK:
Have a HD2 and recently got an Omnia 7 through Orange and had the following problems and was wondering if I flash to a WP7 on my HD2 will I still have the same? I returned the Omnia and still using the HD2.

I did some seasrches on the fourm but didnt see anything specific, apologies if I missed them ....

Contacts...

I couldnt find a way to trasnfer my contacts (about 300+) from HD2 to Omnia 7 - they are stored in Microsoft MyPhone (WP7 created a different account automatically), in Outlook (couldnt see a way of syncing WP7 with Outlook) and couldnt transfer via Bluetooth (didnt support Object Exchange).

Also, WP7 instisted on downloaded all 700 contacts from my Hotmail to phone - is there a way to keep these seperate?

You would have thought that MS MyPhone should enable the transfer of contact, calendar, texts etc. unless they are stored in a completely different format.

Bluetooth - does WP7, and in particular the hacked WP7 on HD2, allow for objects to be transferred via Bluetooth?

Tethering .... HTC have confirmed with me that the HD7 DOES support tethering but operators remove that functionality. The HD2 does have the capability so I am sure someone will be able to unlock this useful feature.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] BEERSHARK:
Sorry guys,

Have I missed something very obvious here?

Does wp7 sync with Outlook to recover contacts, calendar, tasks etc. that are there from hd2 on wm6.5?

How did everyone else copy there contacts over, surely not one at a time?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Weo:
I use the Sense UI "Weather" on my HTC HD2 (Leo; T-Mob USA) all the time for riding. I recently started using the Windows default Today screen, but the weather is incorrect. I've updated it, tried downloading on Quick GPS, etc. The weather is always wrong. If I switch back to the Sense Today Screen, the weather is correct. If I update the Sense weather, it is still correct. If I switch back to the Windows Default Today Screen, the weather is incorrect. I update Windows weather and it is still incorrect. In other words, if I use Sense, the weather works, and if I change back to WM UI the weather shows some place else... don't know where. I think it's a location issue?

1. Is there a way to set or change location for the Windows Default weather application? If I tap it, it just updates.

2. Does Sense use a different weather application?

3. Has anybody else had this issue?

Any help would be appreciated. I use the weather app all the time throughout the year, and would like to try using the Windows default screen for a change.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Weo:
OK, for other people that are in the dark ages and still using WM 6.5.x like me, I figured this out. I was using "Home Screen Customizer" to change a few things around on my Today screen. When you tap the weather on the Today screen it just updates. I had to open "Home Screen Customizer", go to "weather", choose "Edit", and type in my location. Don't forget to hit "Search" after you type in your location, and go through the selection procedure for "Home Screen Customizer" before you save and exit. In other words, don't just exit without checking the softkeys at the bottom of the screen to make sure you've selected the city.

Hi all

i have a X10 mini E10i which i bought just before chrismas.

i updated it to the latest version .24 which at the time was unrootable which made me want to downgrade and had many many problems doing that.

then after many tries some how i got the 504 flashed and working.

now my problem is the following.

1- i cant get xrecovery to work no matter what i do. and believe me i tried everything.

2- i cant get it to update to .24 again, i tried SEUS but it says i have the latest version installed. i tried to look for the build.prop file but it does not exist, i have instead a file named default-capability. which doesnt have the same values everybody here is talking about.

i need help and many thanks in advance.

Might I just take this time here to encourage the use of CWM Recovery instead of ROM Manager. ROM Manager has given me a good deal of trouble, CWM Recovery never has. Plus, when flashing a new ROM, if you install CWM Recovery with root via update.zip, you don't need to waste time signing into Market and downloading ROM Manager. Just my opinion.

reboot into recovery and hit REINSTALL PACKAGES

it will reboot and probably put you back in recovery, click on REINSTALL PACKAGES again, and it should kick you straight over to clockworkmod

[Gen8 General] fzelle:
And you are sure you have looked into the dev forum for gen8?
[Gen8 General] pokejake2002@hotmail.com:
If we can compile an initramfs and a zimage from clockworkmod source, I don't see why not.
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
But we have the Sde already and we have a Multi Boot Menu:);)
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
Yes and no. $auron already has replicated some of the functions in his install script. The real question is why do we need CWM? You can backup/restore data directly on the device, or through ADB. You can install update zips by putting them in the UrukUpdate directory. Basically everything CWM does is already taken care of.

I use CWM on my HD2, so I do like it, but it's pointless on Archos, since they already give us the ability to dual-boot through their own Recovery menu.
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
Why all the people dont want to use SDE? :confused:

F*** the warrenty:D just be brave;)
[Gen8 General] Lenn:
I dont heard about anybody who soft bricked his Archos..
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
Okay, you're not understanding. The Archos AOS firmware and the Archos Bootloader are both encrypted. Even if you can decrypt them, you cannot change them, because they are signed, and the checksum is hardware-coded. Flashing the SDE adds a 3rd decrypted/unsigned boot image that can be flashed through the SDE menu.

Until someone cracks the boot signing and encryption, there can be NOTHING done to the Archos boot system without first flashing the SDE.

And trust me, there are MANY people working on that already, for almost a year.

P.S. How is your A70 useless because of Archos? Since the 2 latest firmware versions, it's been incredibly stable, and it does what's advertised. It even comes with Market now.
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
The boot loader was cracked see here But I don't think it's a very good option to use.
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
Yeah, I know, I was following that thread, but I don't like it either. First off, someone needs to find a way to make that change with a reliable script, because you can't ask people to dd and hex edit the recovery block, or there will be bricks-a-plenty.

Second, I have yet to see someone compile a working AOS-format firmware file that works on Gen8. I stopped paying attention, but all the aos-tools only seemed to work with Gen7. Did someone find the AOS decryption code for Gen8?
[Gen8 General] wdl1908:
This Is not very possible. You will need the private encryption key of archos.

I think the only thing that is missing to decrypt the aos file is the public keys that are used to verify the image files. They are stored in the flash somewhere we only need to find them.
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
Then that's the next step to avoid the need for SDE, i suppose. :) Not like I don't already have the SDE watermark, but it would be nice to flash images through AOS instead of using the Developer menu.
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
That certainly doesn't sound normal. Have you done a full system reformat and done a fresh install? Not saying it will fix it, but I have had times where it helped with hard-to-determine instability. Things like the wifi connection not working, bad touchscreen response, etc shouldn't be happening.

I believe you, I just know that most people with the A70 don't have those issues. I've even set up a few A70s and found it to be better than my A101, probably due to the lower screen resolution. In your case, it could even be bad hardware. If the SDcard controller fries and becomes unstable, the system can use 100% of the CPU cycles trying to keep up with the errors it will throw. Even the CPU can throttle itself if it's damaged, limiting your frequency, thus giving bad performance.

I hope you can get it figured out, or get it replaced/refunded, because I really do think the Gen8 devices were worth their price. I've had mine for 8 months and I've never regretted it. The Tab is probably a better tablet, but they weren't even close to market when I was deciding to get a tablet.
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
I would try to get it replaced if it was me. This forum would be very different if everybody had these problems. I know this is a stupid question, but is it actually an A70HT rebadged to say IT? ;)
[Gen8 General] msticninja:
No, certainly not the only person with alot of troubles, but I truly feel that those people are louder, so you tend to think there's more of them. ;)

Archos rushed to market, like they have for the past 15 years, and I think they started having component shortages, so some of the revisions ended up having unstable mixes of hardware. They probably even know that, and that may be why they've started replacing people's unstable ones as the demand dies. :)

If you want TWiz, then why not go with the latest Samsung froyo leak - KA5? I am using it and its snappy, fast, and bug-free as far as I can tell.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mapinkerton:
Agreed. Stock KA5 froyo is much better than the stock eclair. Even without a lag fix, it's snappy and responsive. If you don't need the full custom rom experience and like touchwiz, it's a good one.

This is probably close to the official OTA - if samsung ever gets around to releasing it.
