Are you eng s off?

Try using adb shell from your command prompt then use the same commands you used in terminal emulator.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frozenblade:
i think so, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857537 i used that tut. is it so many different S-OFF's ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
Ok, with that s off method you can't use fastboot commands. Did you try the commands in adb shell?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frozenblade:
i dont know, maybe. but im trying this now http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=855403 will it be a problem that i used the other S-OFF and now this?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
I don't know. First try the commands in adb shell from your pc.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frozenblade:
if you mean the commands that is written in cmd, then i have already tried it, and it failed.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
In the command prompt, navigate to your sdk then type

Adb devices

Press enter

Your device's serial number should show

Then type

Adb shell

Press enter

If you get a $ type su then press enter

Then enter the same commands you used in terminal emulator

Why do you want cwm 3? It's generally only for 2.3 roms.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frozenblade:
I just installed it now :) thats why i want it, but do you know how i get back to the older cwm? do i just flash it in ROM manager?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
Excellent. What worked finally?

To go back to an older version use rom manager or the use same way you upgraded.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dousan:
You could try this, i haven't tried it myself so don't know if it works, but read it somewhere here on xda.

Go to this path with any file manager.

/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries

And copy that file to another folder. Then copy the name of that recovery (2.x.x.x) and then rename your 3.0.0.5 recovery with the old recovery name and just copy the new (2.x.x.x) to this path. (Just say yes to overwriting the file).

/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries

Then reboot and then boot into recovery and that should have changed the cwm from old to new. The color should be orange now and not green, if still green it didn't work.

If it doesn't work just restore the old recovery .img you've copied earlier (2.x.x.x).

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wtorres141:
I searched and could not locate any information on how to resolve the screen pixel density issue with the Honeynook demo...so I started to play around with different settings by editing the build.prop...dozens of FC's later I stopped and decided to give it a rest...

However one day while on the bus to work, I decided to try using LCD density from the market...this worked!

...but a funny thing happened, when I dropped the density over 180 the Honeycomb launcher was replaced by what looks like ASOP lock screen and black status bar with white fonts , I then installed LauncherPro...check out the screen shots. (Playing around with higher settings changes the status bar to grey with black fonts, I did not screenshot those)

Then I started looking for a way to change the wall paper and show Picasa pictures. I found a thread with an APK to 3D Gallery which worked...screen shots below.

I'm not a dev; just tinkering with these ROMs...thought it might be informational as I have seen multiple threads where they mention how Honeycomb is not for phone devices...obviously there seems to be some phone stuff in there.

- Big thanks to Deeper-Blue for making this ROM

- Dalingrin for the 1.1Ghz Kernel

- Cicada for sparking my interest in froyo on this

- Samuelhalff for all the emmc posts, I learned a lot!

Anyone I missed…my bad, but thanks!

- my colors are all inverted, some setting i must have mised using the screenshot app-
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jtxmobile:
What you did was changed the LCD density to a cell phone density. Honeycomb is designed to change the IU from tablet to phone based on density settings. The max you can change it to and keep the tablet format is 160. anything beyond that changes the ui to a 2.2 like UI
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cohowap:
Hi Guys,

I've been trying to get a phone for development for around 250ish but havn't been successful. Well, it seems my chance might be comming up since T-Mobile is having a Free Smart Phone sale this weekend.

My plan is to go buy the phone, use it for 16 days and cancel my contract. If everything's done fair, it should cost $200 + 16 days of service + any taxes/activation fees.

So I have a few questions.

1) Has anyone done this before? Where there any suprises?

2) Is WP7 functional with Wifi? (i.e. marketplace, games, internet, etc).

3) Think I'll still be able to get updates or what not?

4) Anything else I should be looking for?

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vetvito:
A bill from t-mobile for full price of the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I don't get it, you want to develop for 16 days?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cohowap:
From experience?

Umm, no, T-Mobile requires you return hardware when you cancel your contract within 15 days. But they don't charge a fee.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vetvito:
If you keep the phone, that whole special goes out the window. Read the contract. They will charge you full price.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
don't they charge an ETF when you sign a contract and cancel it after 16 days?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cohowap:
No, they don't charge an etf if you cancel and return everything before the 15th day.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
ok now im confused...

you want to get a phone on a discount with a contract, then return it for a refund? I don't get what you're trying to do here.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohgood:
looks like the op is trying to get the phone for just the subsidized price... then kill contract, and not owe tmo money. good luck, not going to happen. they'll bill for the difference.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cohowap:
No... I'm trying to get a WP7 phone to develop with. But I don't have the 600 bucks to buy if "off contract".

So, if I enter a contract, get the phone discounted for FREE this weekend, then "Terminate" the contract a month later, I have to pay the $200 ETF + the month bill + taxes which would be significantly less than the 600 bucks off contract.

Once I terminate the contract, I have no obligation on returning the device, I was asking to see what the outcome would be. T-Mobile online rep blantly said, I'd be responsible for the ETF + Monthly Fee + Taxes, but god knows if they are right, I wanted to see if anyone else tried this.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I see, let's take a look though.

$200 ETF

$80 monthly fee (cheapest monthly price you can get on WP7 with tmobile)

$35 activation fee

$35 (approx.) taxes and fees

$350 total for the phone.

not sure where you live but here you could get it for something like this:

http://houston.craigslist.org/mob/2205022524.html

or

http://houston.craigslist.org/mob/2202253067.html

of course there are people asking fro $400 but I can guarantee they will not get near that money for this phone.

If you really want to try what you're talking about then go for it, it seems like it would work, but:

1) they may have a stipulation where you cannot cancel your contract for X months due to the "free" phone or you owe the difference, I'd check the fine print on that one.

2) seems like too much work and drama.

retail for an HD7 on tmobile is $500,
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcianc:
This is why Verizon & att (real carriers in the usa) have $350+ ETFs.

watch for mail in rebate that will void if your contract is expired before xx days

orangekid pointed out the actual higher cost though. You might want to check ATT price for a Focus off-contract i've heard can be had for $399 but ymmv. better phone and more coverage if you ever needed to use it as a phone later.

The phone will be fully functional (on wifi) but sim locked to the carrier.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
I don't know what you mean by "real carrier" @ att, since in my city they drop more calls than tmobile ever does even though they probably have more subscribers. ATT's monthly rates (as verizon's) are insanely high too, and they have tiered data, whereas tmobile does not.

off contract they usually give you the sim unlock code, but on contract they generally don't from my experience.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pillsburydoughman:
Ugh 2 pages and no answer. The answer to your question is this.

1. You don't need an actual phone to develop apps. The development tool package comes with a simulator.

2. You cannot install apps you are developing on the phone without having it being flagged for development. This process costs 99$ a year and requires you send some identification data to the company that verifies your identity.

So buying a phone for 16 days is pointless. Even if you had the phone you couldn't put any apps on it without paying Microsoft 99$. Personally I would use the simulator to learn how to develop an app, develop one and then buy the phone when you're ready to release. The advantage here is obviously newer better phones in the future compared to right now.

hope that helps
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangekid:
very good points, I figured since OP is trying to scratch, claw, gamble, and steal his way to get the phone, he was just going to use Chevron on it instead of dropping $99 on the fee.

Hello,

After i install a custom rom in my orange boston, i face a problem. My guess is that the google maps api it's not available, because when any third party app try to launch the integrated maps(via google) it force closes the app.

After some investigation the answer i fear:

Is there a way of adding "manually" this API? or the Rom Owner have to recompile the rom with this API? or it's possible to make an update.zip?

Everything works great on CM7. I have it on both my phone and my wife's. Flashing kernels is exactly like flashing anything else, but you don't have to wipe.

For flashing a kernel or flashing a rom? Either are simple:

ROM:

1) Download the ROM and put it on the root of your SDcard

2) Power off your phone then while holding the Volume Up button hold the power button until it boots into the bootloader.

3) Using the volume rocker to highlight and the power button to select, choose recovery and hit power

4) In recovery go down to backup and restore and hit backup

5) Go to mounts and storage and select WIpe Cache then wipe Data

6) Go back

7) Go into Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache

8) Go back

9) Select Install zip

10) Select choose zip from sdcard

11) Scroll down until you see the ROM and select it

12) Choose yes and let it do its thing

13) Reboot

For a Kernel do steps #1-#4 and then skip to #9 and you'll have a kernel.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giantcrazy:
So my launch day Incredible bit the dust out of nowhere the other day, following some quirky behavior leading up to it (random reboots, inability to power up after battery pulls).

I get my warranty RMA yesterday, and figure that before I restore my Titanium backup, I'll play with some ROMs. I'm assuming I was lucky enough to get another AMOLED replacement, since by any method I can tell it appears to be AMOLED and not SLCD (part number is ADR6300VW, hardware version 0002).

At any rate - I figured I'd try one of the Desire-Z ROMs or a Gingerbread ROM. After I fully rooted and turned NAND S-Off. After confirming those worked fine, I rebooted and flashed a Gingerbread ROM from Clockwork. Rebooted, never got past the HTC Incredible splas screen.

Couldn't get it to work at all - after all sorts of wipes, I finally gave up and flashed Virtuous, figuring it's close to stock. Got back up and running, no problem.

Turned to a Desire-Z ROM - and the same happened again. Splash screen, nothing further. After the same tries, went back to recovery, flashed Virtuous and then SkyRaider, and again, up and running fine.

I'm on HBoot 0.92 with the 7.28 radio. Is there something I'm missing on these Z ROMs? I read through the threads, saw a few people report the same but no real conclusion as to why it was happening.

Thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
Judging by what you posted, you only used ROM Manager to flash roms after booting into recovery correct?

What happens when you manually go into recovery, wipe cache/data/dalvik, and flash the rom from your SD Card? I was running Nil's Business Sense (Desire Z) rom quite fine after flashing it. Some people have issues with ROM Manager and others don't and I'm one of the people who do use ROM Manager to flash roms so I can't help you in that respect.
