[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
this is an extract from the thread i mentioned, you do not need to reset phone just go to the thread and follow the instructions starting from here

1. Download XBMOD Deployer - CLICK HERE

2. In your Windows Development tools you installed earlier there should be an application called "Application Deployment". Connect your phone and open the program and install XBMODDeployer.xap. This extracts the provxml into /My Documents/My Ringtones/.

3. Download TouchXplorer - CLICK HERE - and install this .xap the same way as step 2.

4. Using TouchXplorer copy the file in /My Documents/My Ringtones/ to /Windows/ , overwrite if asked. - Give it time to open the Windows folder it takes a while.

5. Download HTC Connection Setup - CLICK HERE - same as above deploy to phone.

6. Open HTC Connection Setup and setup your network.

7. If your camera setting are not showing, in settings region, change display language to: United States. - this shouldnt affect anything if you are in a different country. Im from UK

[Galaxy Tab General] pohboy:
DISCLAIMER - I understand that a bad ESN means it will be Wifi-only. That's all I need. My Evo will give me a hotspot wherever I want.

I'm looking to buy a Tab, but since it will probably live out its life on either my coffee table or in my kitchen, I have no need for mobile data. Now this may sound stupid, but I'm just wondering if there's any limitations, rooting-, app- or market-wise that a Wifi-only Tab would have.

I ask because I see plenty of ROMS, kernels and rooting techniques that are Carrier-specific.......would any of this matter with a device that I will NEVER activate?

thanks in advance!

[Galaxy Tab General] w4rmk:
I'm not an expert and can't comment on other issues but I can tell you that you'd be limited to ROMs that are available for the CMDA versions of the Tab which have less choices than the GSM versions.
[Galaxy Tab General] ellokomen:
I have the sprint version on wifi-only, I bought it new so my ESN is clean.

Since I don't live in USA my Gtab always connect roaming and that it bad for battery life, so I use it on airplane mode and then I connect it to wifi which is allowed on airplane mode.

Everything works using wifi connection so don't worry about it

Don't sweat it you'll be fine.

[Nook Color General] {Diemex}:
I bought my Nook Color in the asumption, that I would get a fair share of ebooks for free. Till now i've also found nearly every book I wanted.

But this particular one book, I couldnt find anywhere.

So I looked at B&N, there I could get it for 10 Bucks, this simply was a little bit to much for a under 200 page book, so i started looking to find it somewhere else cheaper. Because I actually only know the kindlestore I looked there.

http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/1855/****mydadsyas.png

This picture simply makes me sad, I dont find it funny and I also cant understand why ebooks are so expensive, to even being more expensive than the hardcover.

I cant understand this, because through this price policy the whole ebook market gets destroyed.

I actually dont want to start a big discussion.

i would just be interested if anyone knows a cheaper & good ebookshop
[Nook Color General] everalm:
Amazon has it as a kindle book for 9.99

I might add that like B+N, the physical book price is less than the e-book which makes no sense at all.
[Nook Color General] one4thewings:
The problem stems from the copy houses still demanding to get paid despite nothing getting printed. It's like the companies that press CD's demanding to get paid for MP3 downloads. But somehow the emarket was hosed when this became the norm. Kobo used to be a great place to get a good deal but those days are gone.

I simply put my ebooks in my b&n wish list and watch the prices. When they get reasonable, I'll buy them. It's not a perfect solution and it's absolutely stupid when a physical ANYTHING is cheaper than the digital version.
[Nook Color General] acomiskey:
Don't you mean the other way around?

Anyway, yes they are too expensive. I would like to get my son a few of the read to me books, but at $10 a pop, I would much rather buy him the actual book.
[Nook Color General] autumnmist:
Here are some places I look when I price out ebooks:

leatherbound.me <== searches multiple sites at once but they don't have support for many stores yet

books.google.com/ebooks

fictionwise.com

Barnes and Noble

Amazon

Borders
[Nook Color General] FL5:
Actually, the read-to-me books are the one example I can think of where there is added value in the electronic version which would justify a higher price. I've certainly already bought books electronically at higher-than-paper price, just because of the portability aspect and because I enjoy having content delivered to my lazy buttocks instantly.

The pricing does suck, though. Paying $1 for an iPod game that lasts me hours vs. $10 for a license to download a book is rather disparate. App stores have established a very low threshold for what people find acceptable for prices of downloaded content, but unless publishers fall in line (or, preferably, die), prices will continue to not make sense.

Personally, I think its a little crazy that books have joined music and movies as a good that people now find to be overpriced due to inflated prices from anachronistic and irrelevant previous distribution structures. Ohwellz.
[Wildfire General] OwenW71:
I live in an area that is about to transition to AT&T, so when my trusty Diamond died, I switched to the HTC Wildfire. Alltel is my provider, so that means CDMA. Alltel still calls it the Wildfire, but HTC calls it a Bee. There are more than just radio differences between the Wildfire and the Bee. Cosmetically, it is different, as is the bootloader version.

Here are the lines from the HBOOT screen:

BEE DVT2 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.24.0000

MICROP-0422

RADIO-1.00.00.10.01

Sep 9 2010,12:37:36

I like the size of the phone. I'm not a big fan of those huge screens, since I like to carry my phone in my pocket. I just don't feel right using a stock phone anymore, so I'd like to wipe the Alltel branding off and maybe get an AOSP ROM installed. That may be possible right now, but even if we can successfully root this phone, I worry that the lack of a Clockwork Recovery image may limit my adventurous nature. Also, I cannot find a link to a stock ROM, should I ever want to sell the phone or just restore it to OOTB software.

After poking around in various forums, it looks like this phone may have been dead-ended before I even picked it up. There does not seem to be a lot of effort to get it up-to-snuff, with respect to ROOT and ROMs. Not that it is a big deal, since I'll be on AT&T in a month or two anyway. I would like to lend a hand to any devs out there that feel like playing with it, but I'm not holding my breath.

Given that installing a ROM seems to be unwise at this point, what would you do with the phone? I could pay a little more and get the CDMA Desire, but the dev situation for that phone is not much better, and it is a pocket-buster. Looks like I'm stuck.
[Wildfire General] oneinouts:
Not sure if you can root your phone yet, although someone with more experience would be able to tell you more. Your hboot is different than mine, my version can not be rooted yet.

You can find roms here http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Buzz/
[Wildfire General] OwenW71:
I'm fairly sure that this can be rooted, but since I can find no Clockwork recovery and no shipped ROM, there is no going back. The bootloader on mine seems to be an older one, so that should not be the hold-up.
[Wildfire General] oneinouts:
What andriod version are you running then? Of couse you can do it, you just have to find a shop that has a xtc clip, buy one, or wait until unrevoked sorts their tool out ... Since im not going to pay top whack for one of those ive emailed a few shops in my area and im awaiting a response. Im off out tomorrow to see asian dude who does unlocking on the off chance.
[Wildfire General] OwenW71:
AFAIK, all wildfires shipped with 2.1, at least mine did. Keep us posted with your progress. I'm outta ideas.
[Wildfire General] brilldoctor:
DO NOT USE THOSE THEY ARE FOR THE GSM BUZZ WILDFIRE AND WILL BRICK YOUR BEE
[Wildfire General] oostah:
I have two of the HTC bee cdma phones I have rooted one and can't find a recovery for it so I can't go any farther with out being able to make a backup. If we can find a recovery we as a community can make things happen. I have posted on other threads stay away from the buzz things they can brick your bee. I have tried to get XDA to start a section for the bee so we are not having threads of now what do I do to fix this I flashed a buzz whatever on my bee. PLEASE XDA START A HTC BEE SECTION FOR US. So we can get some developers to see we are here and need help.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 3593737:
Hello,

yesterday i flashed my Defy with the 3.4.2 131-003 Orange Deblur Firmware, after this i wasn't able to connect from my computer to the phone over wifi.

Trough a proxy with SwiFTP theres no problem, but inside my own wifi nothing works, not even a ping.

Tried it again inside an other wifi network at work, same result, no connection possible, no ping, surfing and the market work fine.

//There are no problems connecting to an AdHoc network Comp<->Phone, pinging, connecting, FTP, everything works

///Now I've also tried it with 2 different OS (7 and XP), nothing.....

Anyone experienced these problems and/or could help me?
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatclaw:
I am seriously considering jumping ship from my Craptivate to the Insipre. The main thing holding me back to the screen. I realize it will be somewhat of a downgrade from the Captivate's, but my question is how much so? For those that just made the switch, are you already missing the Captivate's gorgeous screen? Or is the difference not that bad? I'm just scared that I'll miss the dark blacks and vibrant colors to much and maybe regret it.

I'm also curious as to the ease of messing with different ROMs/kernals and such. I've had the Captivate since launch day, but it was my first Android phone. I came from iOS, which I was very familiar with 'messing with'. Anyways, I learned the ins-and-outs of the Captivate and Android in general soon after I got it, and I probably flashed new ROMs over a hundred or so times over the last 7 months. I know my way around the Captivate very, very well now, and am wondering how much of that knowledge will translate to this as I am already running across unfamiliar terms on this forum like gold cards and such. I am already noticing a few Captivate developers jumping ship, which is helping to sway me to the HTC side. I am still missing my GPS way to much, and am tired of keeping my old 3gs (not activated) in my car to make sure I had access to a reliable GPS when needed, which I would tether to my Captivate to use.
[HTC Inspire 4G] milleirish:
You should go into the store and see the phone for yourself. I have both phones and I think the screen is as good or better then the captivate.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatclaw:
That's what I wanted to hear, thanks. I do live pretty much next door to an AT&T store, so I guess I'll go check it out in a second. I just wanted to hear from people that already have some real-world use with the Inspires and Captivates, versus a 5 minute try-out I'd have at the store. Thanks for your reply, appreciated.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
Lets face it the Craptivates screen is nice but the phone is a true to life FAIL.

You will not miss your phone once you have a fast/stable phone that has the only drawback of a not so loud speaker (this will be fixed down the line, some using a custom rom already see improvements in sound)

We already have root, custom kernels and roms.

Its only day 4 and the xda community have accomplished so much, and trust me this is just the tip of the iceberg.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatclaw:
Man, I'm going to be talked into this within the hour! I'm trying to get my wife to switch as well, as she still has a 3gs. She wants a new phone (reason she never jumped to an ip4), but keeps saying she's waiting until something that jumps out is released. Also, the problems that she knows I've been having with my Captivate is not helping matters on the Android front, although I try explaining that most are isolated to the Captivate and the fact that I'm running basically beta ROMs just to get the newer Froyo. She's not took shabby technology wise either, as she is able to do quite a lot with her iphone like jailbreaking, ssh'in into it, and all kinds of other tweaks available with jailbroken iphones. I think she'd much rather Android, because she's really into messing with the UI and such to get it more to her liking.

Thanks for the advice.
[HTC Inspire 4G] milleirish:
Also thatclaw, the GPS on the Inspire is fast as hell. On Valentines day I need to get to the place where we here having dinner. Started Maps, hit my location and within a second, boom there I was and it was right on spot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
You're welcome, heres a bit more to contemplate.

I have to admit the one other drawback, the 1250 mAh battery.

If you are not 24-7 texting or playing with the phone it should be fine and last you an entire day like it does with me with ONE daily charge unless Im using the phone like crazy.

Then again that's why CHARGERS and USB cables were invented, I have them in 3 or 4 select locations so I'm never out of juice.

In the 4 days Ive had it Ive noticed the battery is getting better and better with the battery charges.

If on the other hand your wife is always on the phone as well perhaps a phone with a bigger battery would serve her better. , ack Im going to say it the Atrix :( or maybe something a few months ahead.

Im more than happy with my Inspire though, Dual Cores be damned.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
The only problem with the Inspire's screen is you can see the touchscreen grid under certain angles.

Kinda annoying, but not too bad.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Anthonok:
It is strange to be able to see it but I.think it looks cool. Haha.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
I approve this message :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatclaw:
While battery life is important, we are both fine as long as its decent. We both commute to work (charge in car) and both usually keep a charger at work. So going a full day is not a necessity nor expected, especially for me because use my phone very heavily during the day. >1.5 hours of talk time, and usually >2.5 hours of screen time before 5pm. I always plug in my phone while at my desk. The only time I need it to last is when I'm out and about, at bars and such, which I don't really use heavily then. I just want something reliable, of good quality, snappy, and a freaking working GPS. I live in the city (NOLA) and am always on the go throughout the day to places I've never been to meet up with clients, etc. A working GPS is very important, and I'm tired of not having that over the last 7 months.

How easy is it to swap ROMs and such as compared to the Captivate? Although I have nothing to compare the Captivates processes to, I find it very easy and pain free for the most part on it. As a matter of fact, probably half the time I flash is while on the road and in traffic (no lectures please, I'm careful mostly wait till redlights to do things). I'm scared I'll be starting from scratch again, and will have to re-learn everything. I'm not the one to post questions about rooting/flashing/etc. that can easily be found with a little effort, when I know I can find everything I need by just reading up and searching. Although I know people on here are usually glad to help, I'm not the one that needs someone to hold my hand as I know the information can be found on my own, and I find I learn better this way. I'm just worried that the Inspire won't be that simple, because I'm running across too many unfamiliar terms already. BTW, my self-suffiency is evidenced by my post count, and I've been coming here and for knowledge and know-how since I got the Captivate in July. I'd like to keep it this way, but just am worried it won't be the same for some reason.

Also, a big thanks to everyone who chimed in already so quickly, its much appreciated and makes me want to be more involved with this great community, and not just be a lurker coming here daily (multiple times) only to read up, check for updates, grabs tools, etc.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
No you must flash Roms while driving if not you are Un-American, hahaha.

Yeah I understand youre so used to the Craptivates way of doing things.

I would say go here and see for yourself what steps there are

Ive had a captivate since august, picked up a inspire last night.

Stock for stock the inspire is worlds better, but the captivate @ 1.4ghz with voodoo color and a good rom is proving hard to leave behind. The captivate has such little available memory once everything is loaded up compared to the inspire, Ill give it a good week before I decide.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
I am personally preferring the Inspire screen so far. I like the more muted look, but not washed out like say, the 3GS.

If you're having a tough time deciding between an insanely tricked out Captivate and a completely stock Inspire, imagine what the Inspire will be like in a couple months when the dev community blossoms.
