[Click General] farukb:
you can not get rom with all features if not all features are working (like you said camera,fm...)

so you'll just have to stick with that one if you need them,and if you don't try playing and upgrading
[Click General] dom_b:
Read the forum... all the information is there.

HTC won't update the phone

You can flash a custom rom with 2.2.1 or 2.3 but no camera or radio (who uses fm radio anyway?)

That is your only option.
[Click General] Ihaveatattoo:
The forum IS pretty big.

Maybe camera will work in the soon future. Now in kalimo's ROM one can see previews, very low resolution pictures.

But you can also flash one of the many 1.6 ROMs here. They all have functionning camera and FM radio.

I'm on At&T and just bought a T-Mobile G2 and am having a b!tch of a time getting this thing unlocked. I've used three cell unlocking websites and thus far none of them have been able to give me an unlock code saying that my imei is too new and not in any data base yet. So does anyone know of any awesome unlocking website that has current codes or am I screwed? Are there any other options to get this code?

BTW, yes I know I'll never be able to get 3G but I don't care, this phone is awesome and the DesireZ was too much money!!

Ignore both of those links. The CORRECT answer is to press the "WIKI" button at the top of the screen, select YOUR DEVICE, and read the instructions THERE. Wiki = "official". Thread = who the hell knows.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
What these guys are talking about is that one of the side effects of the recommended method to root the G2 is that the phone becomes SIM unlocked in the process. If you root your phone using the "gfree method" your phone will be both unlocked and rooted (and more) at the end of the process and it won't cost you a dime.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wileykat:
WOAH,.... bet the OP is gona be well confuzzled!!!!

TO CLARIFY.......

Both links provided, and also the WIKI will point you towards the "GFree Root, Super CID & Subsidy unlock".

No-one has given you incorrect info here.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosrobit:
I already perm rooted my G2 so I guess the gfree method is out....:(. Thanks for the suggestions though and it's my own damn fault for not doing my homework first.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zkid2010:
Ok so the one reply that said to ignore our advice is a troll and spends more time getting warnings from mods...next its not too late to reroot and sim unlock via gfree just do a bit of reading in that rollup thread I linked. U may need to unroot first and redo it with gfree but totally doable my friend.

You should still be able to use gfree to unlock even if you have already got permanent root.

We have. The rollup thread has everything he'll need and there are much better tuts to start with (installing/setting up adb etc) that will get him started before he can even look at the Wiki and make sense of it.

That said, now the OP will most likely be interested in unrooting depending on how he perma-rooted it and try to get back to a full gfree subsidy/super cid/s-off unlock.

What was your contribution again?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
Just to clairfiy you can run gfree on top of your already perm rooted phone, I did , you do not need to unroot first.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratchetrizzo:
Wait, if it's a T-mobile G2, why would you have to downgrade the radio to run gfree? It will work on a post-ota radio. Well unless you flashed a newer radio from the radio thread, but both pre/post ota G2 radios are fine as is.

Only the desire z should need to be downgraded.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xguntherc:
Hey guys. I'm not a noob. I use ADB and have flashed many a roms on my Nexus one and old G1 from the oldies days.

Basically I have a Completely Stock OTA'd Sprint EVO running the latest OTA. 2.2 and I just need to simply Root it. No rom's or anything. I need to root it, and get USB Tethering working so my friend doesn't have to pay the $30 through sprint for tether. I don't wanna have to wipe, or anything as he wants to just run stock how it is, with tethering.

Using something like Unrevoked3 i don't need to wipe or anything right. I can simply use Unrevoked, get root. install the Tethering stuff that requires root and I'm good to go right? I read all the RSA info and people loosing WimaX key's and it's got me a little worried.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemaldo:
Unrevoked will root and give you stock everything I am preety sure that it will not wipe I did mine a while and a few roms and I can't remember
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caguirr4:
First need to verify that your h boot is compatible with unrevoked 3. If it is then you should be good to go. people were having problems lising their rsa keys with 1 specific version of unrevoked 3. But that is in a problem anymore. After rooting with unrevoked then yes all you should all you have to do is download wireless tether app and then that's it.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iitreatedii:
get pdanet app if you just need usb tethering even though rooting is not that difficult, make your life easier...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbsolutZeroGI:
Everything you need is right here. This is what I used to do it 19 days ago and I have all of Sprint's most recent OTA's.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xguntherc:
Wait so PdaNet is a USB Tether app build for WinMo, iOS and now Android. I can fully tether over USB my data connection on any Android phone to my computer for FREE, browse the net and all that and Sprint wont try and charge me?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iitreatedii:
nope, thats why i suggested it lol, you don't need to root, if your not going to use roms like us but want to tether USB, PDANET FTW, your welcome :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
FYI - PDANet is not free after a certain amount of days. It will stop you from getting to secured sites like facebook and gmail.

Your first intentions are the best just root with Unrevoked which is 5 minutes and download wireless tether.

Or something I have done for quite a few people like you download z4root and it can give you temporary root and then load up wireless tether and it works fine.

If you need any help just pm me and I will walk you through it.

Z4root + Wireless Tether = Just want you want and no hassle

edit: Here is a little more info

1 Download Z4root from here

2. Place apk on sdcard and install

3 Click temporary root and wait

4 Go to Market and download latest Wireless Tether for Root

5 After you have been given temporary root open up Wireless Tether and it will ask for SU permission say yes and thats it.

Now you can run root apps as long as you have that running. It will turn off after every reboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xguntherc:
pdanet worked great.. and sprint wont see that and charge my friend?

also using z4 for temp root, then adding Wireless Tether to the SU list. that will only work while Temp rooted right? so he'd have to temp root everytime he wants to wireless tether? or will it work after the first initial time? I'd think it always needs root.

pdanet over 4G was pretty fast
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
It will work for as long as his phone is on.. Just remember that pdanet is a temp fix unless you pay for it..... temp root is simple after the first time just an app to click and thats it. You will also be able to run some other root apps as well
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xguntherc:
I've used temp root with z4 plenty. But he'd have to re temp root every time he wanted to wireless tether. that gets a little tedious.

so far pdanet working great.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buff McBigstuff:
no he only has to re temp root when he reboots his phone
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowboarda42:
If he does end up rooting it "semi-permanently", you might want to load him up with a ROM like Sprintlover's. Reason being, he might get random Force Close problems if he sticks with the stock rooted one. Sprintlovers is completely stable and looks totally stock for people like your buddy. Wireless tether should work awesome with it.

HTH.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
ok but just remember if you do not pay for PDANET it will shut you down from secure websites and it also does not have wireless only bluetooth and wired
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgruendler:
I am pretty sure you cannot load a ROM with the temp root. You need full nand access to load ROMS on the EVO. I would just use unrevoked3 and be done with it. I have used it on a ton of evos for my clients and have had no issues at all.

Ok as you can tell.im on my phone I've searchedit and everything but....I should be getting my tmobile g2 later today but since its new it'll come with the ota update preloaded. If I follow tue downgrade instructions will I be able to permroot it or what?
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
I think you can permroot with the OTA if I'm not mistaken...

Not 100% cuz im new to G2 but I just did a permroot and mine has wifi calling, tethering etc. that you get from the OTA...

I used this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833965

which has different files to use if you have the OTA or not, which pretty clearly shows that you can permroot with the OTA.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Orite:
I think you're confusing it with the Desire Z. The G2 hasn't had any OTA updates if I recall correctly.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
G2 definitely has had an OTA update. It didn't have wifi calling and wifi tethering at release, and received an update to add these features.

Hence why in the guide, there are different files for "pre-OTA" and "OTA".

and hence why there was tons of stuff about downgrading from the OTA to previous software in order to try and permroot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] burtcom:
All this was in response to the recent OTA for the Desire Z. The G2 had an earlier OTA, but there were no issues with rooting for that one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joemm:
Yes the G2 had an OTA from 1.19 to 1.22, and yes you can root either version, you don't need to downgrade to root, also if the phone comes with the original rom 1.19 my suggestion would be to root it with 1.19 and don't apply the update to 1.22, incase something went wrong with rooting, we have a complete 1.19 PC10IMG signed zip that will save you.

Yeah I Reread the wiki and i was reading under the Z lol stupid me but now im having a driver problem how do i install them? i type adb devices and nothing shows.
[G2 and Desire Z General] joemm:
Try installing HTC sync, it doesnt actully function with the G2 because it is Sense based (made for Desire Z) but it will install the correct drivers, just install the HTC sync program on you computer, once installed just plug the phone in and it will install the correct drivers:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thecitywelivein:
This all started when I formatted within clockworkmod and screwed up my partitions.

I had to revert back to stock to rebuild the structure of the phone. After stock, I re-rooted and flashed CM7.

I had no service(no calling, no data).

I flashed back to stock and found the problem.

I had to dial ##778 and change the number under the NAI to my phone number. See here.

Everything worked perfectly. I flashed skyraider and it still worked. Then I flashed CM6 and no luck.

And I can't do ##778 with AOSP roms and I'm not sure why the settings aren't going over. I've done *228, replaced the kernel and the radio. Still nothing.

Any other ideas?

I flashed back to SkyRaider and dialed ##778

I am bored so I did a search in appbrain for keyboards. I saw some new ones and old ones I had forgotten about. I downloaded a few that looked interesting and tested away. I finally narrowed it down to a keyboard that looks like aosp and in landscape, it seems lightning fast! It's called dr.ben0x keyboard. It's free. I did some tests and the reasons I like it are because it's not the blinding white like the touch input stock one, in landscape I can type faster with the onscreen keyboard than the physical one (believe it or not), the suggested words are just above the keyboard and not floating (which many times gets in the way of seeing what I'm typing). That's another complaint I have with the stock touch input kb.

Yeah, it's not as small as the 70k something that the htc one is but at 660k, it's smaller than just about all the other aftermarket keyboards out there. It doesn't seem to get in my way when typing. The keys are larger in landscape. I was wanting the motorola multitouch keyboard so bad but couldn't install it yet without full root and a crowbar. This in landscape is fast enough I think to give motorola's keyboard a run for it's money. Like I said, this looks very much like an asop keyboard, colors as well. Carpel tunnel syndrom, here I come!

Let's say, for the upgrade it is disabled enough this way. After restarting your device your SD will be converted back to its original format so that the kernel in 2.2.1 can access it.
