My girlfriend has an LG Optimus T and she has a consistant issue with it entering Emergency Mode. She will shut it down, but when restarting, it goes directly into Emergency Mode. She has to pull the battery for at least 5 min, sometimes 10 before she can reboot normally. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks in advance.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] irondevil:
the only chance is to use kdz http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=883314 or if you have a custom recovery installed flash another rom
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jaylapeno:
The phone just randomly boots into emergency mode by itself? To get in, you need to press up and back button during the LG home screen so maybe there is a problem with corrupted rom, is it rooted/custom recovery? Has there been any modification to it or is it on stock?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] d_phekt:
No it doesn't do it randomly by itself. Just when she manually powers off her phone. It will shut down and power off okay, but when restarting it goes directly into Emergency Mode and won't boot normally unless the battery is pulled for at least 5 min. If we try and put the battery back in too soon it just goes directly back into Emergency Mode... have to wait it out. Phone is rooted, and no custom rom.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
I'd try to switch into emergency mode manually. I have no idea if this helps, but you can try...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ruwin:
I have the same problem! I use Void Echo, but i used to have stock rom and still get that boot error... My guess is that it's a bootloader error, so maybe uninstalling the custom recovery and reinstalling it will fix this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IndigoHD:
I installed SPL-3.03.0000 so i could install the newest Artemis Rom at that time, but now i wish to leave Windows Mobile for a while and flash Nand Android, for which i need HSPL 2.08.

Now i need to downgrade it, i believe, but i am not sure how to safely do so.

i would be much obliged if anyone could help me.

EDIT: Its a german HD2 from O2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred_up:
Back up all your contacts, SMS, etc.

Go to the HTC website and get the O2 ROM (possibly 1.72). You need to use your phone's serial number to get the ROM (this at least guarentees that you are downloading a ROM suitable for your phone).

Run the ROM.

Now you should be with a 1.72 ROM.

Download and run HSPL2, then select 2.08.HSPL

In the WinMo6.5 development ROM section you will find a post about RADIOs. Find and download the 2.15.50 (or 2.12.50) RADIO. Run the RADIO ROM.

Now go to the Android NAND section and follow the instructions for installing the particular NANDRIOD.

[Galaxy Tab General] eventreur:
Hi,

I bought recently a galaxy tab for a company. I took a data plan with my operator to allow Internet browsing with it. The sole problem is : I can call with the tab but should not be able to. I called my customer service and they told me they can't desactivate the line without desactivating the data part with it (noobs!??!!). This they will bill me every call as extra communication (believe me, it makes phone calls VERY expensive). The tab will be handed to people we do not trust a lot.

So I would like to know if there is a way to prevent users to call with the tab without needing a complex operation to do it (like reinstalling the whole tab).

Thanks a lot for your help on this one...
[Galaxy Tab General] eventreur:
Ok, I will respond to myself hoping it might help someone. After looking a lot into this, I found that you can do just that by going into the phone settings, calls, fixed number and by activating the feature. you can add allowed calls and it blocks every call not in the list. You set specific PIN (different from the one used to unlock the phone) to activate the feature and it will be needed to add/remove elements in the authorized list as well as to disable the feature.

It is great!
[Galaxy Tab General] eventreur:
Woops, this seems to block the connexion to the 3G too. Didn't notice before because it was already connected but if you disconnect for a X or Y reason, then it won't work again... That is a shame...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeGrille:
Hi guys, new to the forums here and im in some deep sh**.

I dropped my phone two days ago, from my bed to the floor. The phone died and i rebooted it. all the sudden i got a black screen and failed bootings and such, but now it's whorse.

I've hardreseted and soft, still no difference, the screen just is black, and/or flickering like he**.

Do you guys know whats been broken?

Please help guys!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishek.hitman:
Hmmm i'm no expert but just wanted you to check a few things. I'm sure all the expert users here can help you much better. :)

Is there any damage on the LCD? Cracks?

Are you able to see anything on the display? What exactly happens when you power on your X1?

Did you try updating your software with SEUS (i.e. using volume down + power button)? Do the colour stripes appear normally during this step on your screen?

Try looking into "Xperia ROM and Guides" thread in General category of Xperia X1 if you're brave enough for disassembling and checking your phone's internals (Only in case its out of warranty). There are chances that something might have happened to your LCD flex cable stopping your phone from booting normally.

Don't worry too much. I guess it might just be software issue. It surely can be solved, hope there's no serious damage to your phone internals. :(

[Windows Phone 7 General] davidebanks:
usually we moan about how the carriers are doing wp7 no favors and are steering people away from wp7 and pointing them towards iphone and android instead, however Orange UK seem to be doing a bit more than most UK carriers to promote. here are the reason why i think orange deserves some credit

1)I walked past an Orange store and was very surprised to see the ZUNE player software right at the FRONT of the store so you couldnt miss it at all, (usually this is reserved for iphone) it was playing the stores music so people could see how it worked. This was shown on a large dominating 60 inch ( i think TV) of course this would make people ask whats that? then they could guide you towards their WP7 phones...smart, very smart.

2)Orange were also one of the first stores to supply wp7 devices at launch in the UK even though there was a shortage, main orange stores had them.

3)Orange offer Turn by turn Orange Maps Navigation. now its not as good as TOM TOM. but i dont see any other carriers doing it.

4) unlimited internet ( im looking at you t mobile) i phone and asked orange if i could find out how much data i was using because i could go over my "unlimited usually 1gb limit) i couldnt i was was told, because i was on an unlimited plan. sweet.

and finally 5) Orange are the Only store where i have seen reps from HTC or other people who have been drafted in to actually promote WP7!!! i havnt seen this done anywhere else!

so well done Orange, you deserve the credit!
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
I'd double check on the internet if I were you.

Orange only do 500MB bundles which you can top up for a little more a month.

It depends on who you talk to.. I found that a few call centre people would claim that the internet was unlimited and would say that as long as you don't download, you can browse and listen to music as much as you want. Speak to someone else and you will find that there is a "fair usage policy" which is at 500MB (or more depending on how many bundles you bought) and they start charging you for extra usage.

UNLESS things have changed!
[Windows Phone 7 General] martoto:
I don't think they even have "unlimited" (with fair usage policy) internet as an option. They have fixed amount MB per month and they're going to charge you if go above it.

I don’t know if they are a good WP7 promoter, however I had a terrible experience with their customer support and will definitely avoid them as a network provider. I am not surprised that someone of their representative told to OP the nonsense about the "unlimited" internet. Most of them are so incompetent.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gc48067:
Orange have given me unlimited data on my contract but they seem to artifically limit it by not giving me signal anywhere....
[Windows Phone 7 General] robnewton1:
I got an omnia 7 a couple days after launch & at the time my contract, panther 35, unlimited data had a fair usage limit of 3gb but the salesman said the limit would be dropping to 1gb for new customers in november so id ring them back & make sure they tell you what you need to know.
[Windows Phone 7 General] brummiesteven:
Orange have a FUP of 500mb, T-Mobile's is 1gb, 3gb if you say you have an android phone.

T-Mobile are cheaper than orange.

Other than that, there is no difference AT ALL between the 2 networks.

[Nexus One General] XSafire:
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/38311/android-2-4-april-release-date

Makes complete sense. Dev's are already using the honeycomb SDK to produce apps made for dual core devices. Google cares more about having the maximum number of apps to be available to as many people as possible rather than having a handful of consumers having the absolute latest edition (and I have to agree with them).

How many stock vanilla android devices are there? Just us and the NS (pretty sure no one gets OTA's the day of except us two). Getting an OS out there for everyone is more important then keeping a relatively small group happy with the latest official build. Besides, the N1 is meant for ROM's. Google want's us to play with them, which is why I own the phone. If you've been waiting for gingerbread, just flash a freaking ROM and be happy.

Gingerbread isn't even that great anyway.
[Nexus One General] elegos:
AFAIK Gingerbread suffers different problems:

1. security

2. resets

IMHO google devs are working on them before pushing 2.3 on the nexus one too, making it vulnerable and unstable.
[Nexus One General] commodoor:
Yhea i did read about the resets in NS, i'm using GB on N1 but it never resets on it's own.
[Nexus One General] mark_20:
The resets may be an issue with the Nexus S hardware, and not with the OS. The Samsung Galaxy S phones have quite a few "issues", just ask any owner of a Captivate. I switched from the Captivate to a Nexus One, it is a much better phone.
[Nexus One General] bigmout:
I'm on CM7 and getting occasional random resets.
[Nexus One General] Salival:
Google announced 27. January that OTA for Nexus S coming in 1-2 weeks, I don´t know why, but maybe we´ll see both Nexus One and Nexus S OTA.
[Nexus One General] James Bell:
I wish people would stop saying "just flash a GB ROM and be done with it", there's more to it than that. The N1 is sort of a reference design for alot of phones out there. A working N1 GB ROM means solid drivers, solid battery life, solid performance, etc.

I also have an HD2, it's running GB but the battery life (and BT stack in particular) is pretty poor. Devs say they won't be able to improve much until there are more GB ROMs they can pick parts from. First on that list is the N1.

There are more than just us Nexus One users tapping their fingers waiting for Google on this.
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
The "reset" issue is specific to the NS hardware. Samsung screwed the pooch on that one. There are plenty of people here running GB roms with out issue.

But I do believe the security flaws recently discovered to have a significant impact on GB's delayed release.
[Nexus One General] eallan:
I've had plenty of resets on my N1 with CM7 :(
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
My N1 is running a GB ROM with solid battery life, and performance. I don't know about drivers but everything works perfectly and as it should. Almost like I am running an official build of GB. The reboot issue only seemed to occur on CM7.. oddly. And it wasn't frequent enough for me to care.

I thought the HD2 always had pathetic battery life when it came to Android. Mine's did, until I remembered to install SetCPU. It last all day, which is just what I need.
[Nexus One General] XSafire:
I mean the AOSP was released for gingerbread, so we can get some pretty stable ROM's. No it isn't as good as an official update, but if I wanted to wait for official updates, I would have bought a desire.

Now I'm not sure about this, but I think most ROM's that are cooked are built using the ASOP rather than modified stock ROM's. It isn't worth waiting and complaining for a 100% optimized OTA ROM when there are tons of temporary solutions.
[Nexus One General] madman_cro:
dont get ya. do you think desire owners arent using AOSP ginger?
[Nexus One General] pfmiller:
I bought the N1 because it was great hardware and, most importantly, because it was carrier free. The ability to root and flash the phone is nice in case I ever feel the need to admin yet another Linux machine, but that was certainly not everyones reason for getting the phone.
[Nexus One General] XSafire:
I simply meant that we receive updates as soon as they are available, and are the first ones to get it. Desire has to wait for HTC to update sense and drivers and all that stuff until they release an OTA.

Touche, although there aren't many people on these forums with the same intentions. I was simply speaking to the masses.
[Nexus One General] fabler:

Hi,

Does anyone know how to access contacts list in WP7 ? According documentation, there is no API. But this is my search result.

Regards
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Marvin_S:
You can parse contacts.live.com, the mobile website is the easiest to parse...

or you can use the contacts.live.com api's and you have to build a webservice kind of like ebuddy. I have not tried this myself, but I figured it should work.

I scanned the source of contacts.live.com the mobile version and its very easy to parse this code and also figure out the phone number directly. Just login there and switch to mobile than view source... goodluck!

Basically the same how ebay etc. get your windows live messenger contacts but than select it based on if they have a phone number. This ofcourse wont give you the facebook contacts. But it will give you all the contacts if the user adds them to live (which is default, so highly likely)
