I wonder why you have 0 thanks...
[Focus General] PaullikesWINMO:
Oh I totally agree... we have waited far too long. I hope Samsung and Microsoft have learned from this because HTC and Android or Apple and iPhone5 make great alternatives. :-)

So let's hope this thing finally roles out so we can get back to a our lives ! lol...

WP7 ... REALLY ???? never again Microsoft...

[Focus General] TriAxisFL:
All the AT&T WP7 phones are still in testing phase. Even if testing is completed tomorrow, there is still about 10 days of scheduling. Followed by another week or two of deployment. So don't expect the NoDo update on AT&T till about mid April.
[Focus General] Jayden0606:
I'm a crackberry mod, so I know how to do things myself, but you still could have posted the link to where and still added how he can search for it.

If the user doesn't know what he's searching for, what is he going to type :confused:

go ahead and type "how to unbrand samsung focus wp7" in Google or even these forums and let me know how easy it is to find.

because i only have 7 posts... you may want to ask TOA Duck the same? :rolleyes:

i wonder why you only have 147 thanks with 1230+ posts.... :o

Here's the real kicker... someone else asked the same question and here is the response he gave them.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
stop crying and flaming and move on about your business
[Focus General] amtrakcn:
Unbranded and updated.

Getting rid of AT&T is the best way to keep up with the world, lol.
[Focus General] bennyj71:
Did you have to unlock it first? I can't get my ATT Focus to Unlock.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
So lets get this straight,

you have NoDo (not just pre-nodo) with your phone unbranded

and you are in the US

AWESOME
[Focus General] amtrakcn:
No I mean pre-NoDo one... Nodo is not out for Focus yet. Check the WP7 upgrage list.

AT&T + Focus = 7004

Focus = 7008
[Focus General] amtrakcn:
I did not touch the SIM lock... Just Chevron unlock it and edit the registry.
[Focus General] bennyj71:
No, that's what I'm talking about. I've been trying all day to Chevron unlock. Keep getting connection error
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
benny-

go back to the chevron unlocker thread and follow the posts closely. Many people had connection errors and fixed it by releasing ports used by open programs....I will look also and post if I find specifically where they are.
[Focus General] amtrakcn:
There are 2 points need attention:

1. A PC registry tweak is required

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsPhone\ProxyPorts]“DeviceReg”=dword:000069C5

If there is no such path in your registry, just add it yourself

2. Keep the screen of your phone lit. Don't let it go to lock screen.
[Focus General] Freddy2Fred:
I know exactly what your talking about. I was there few days ago. What you have to do is make sure your phone is not on lock screen. Then on your computer instead of double clicking on the chevron app, right click and click on run as administrator and it should work. Enjoy =)
[Focus General] rmcgraw:
Install Windows Phone Developer Tools. It will solve your issue.
[Focus General] kitsVA:
I still have on my Focus Ver 1.3, 7.0 (7004). I updated to latest Zune and it says my phones has the latest update.

Anyone suggest me what might be the problem? I reset the phone as well and still same problem.

Thanks.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
More details might help.

I'm assuming you:

- had 7004 for a long time already

- In 7004 and Zune 4.7 you were getting update notifications

- didn't install anything "fishy"/xml-ish or alike lately

- updated to Zune 4.8 very recently

In this case I suggest uninstalling 4.8 and reinstalling 4.7 and see how that goes. If not, detail please.
[Focus General] kitsVA:
Yes. My Focus was not used for over 2-3 months. During this time, I moved from AT&T to StraightTalk pre-paid which basically gives an AT&T sim card with Nokia E71. I put straighTalk Sim and Focus worked fine except for MMS.

Not sure about this as I already updated Zune to 4.8 when I pulled out my Zune to get Mango beta on it.

No xml stuff but did some "fishy" things needs to get to Mango. First I followed instructions from this link. When I noticed Phone was not updating I tried some info from here

Windows Phone 7 - MISC | REF | GUIDES ETC

[GUIDE]WP7 Hacking for Beginners - Chevron, Theming, Ringtones, Registry, MMS/Data by wm.andrew.wilson

[GUIDE][HTC] Prevent WP7 from Relocking by thesecondsfade

I found out I am not going from 7004 to pre-mango versions as I already have Zune Beta. So, I went back to 4.7, and did a hard reset on my phone.

Yes. But now have 4.7.14.04

No luck
[Focus General] kitsVA:
I reflashed AT&T ROM and instantly Zune requested first to get update for Zune. Then, it updated the phone to Feb 2011 update and then to March 2011 update which took a very very very long time. Now i have 7390.
[Epic 4G General] tclarkey:
Only drivers can be downloaded from Software tab now. Perhaps a new link is forthcoming with patches, or perhaps 2.3?

Right, who am I kidding....
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
They pulled the update within 3 days of it's release, I believe.
[Epic 4G General] tclarkey:
Sprint site did, I believe. Samsung's was still up as of this morning, gone now.
[Epic 4G General] ultra78721:
Now I just hope they release a new update soon...Ever since the froyo update my 3g is slow and wifi and 4g are practically useless, It times out so much:mad:
[Epic 4G General] ms79723:
they'll probably be releasing a new update soon.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Check my thread in development for the files
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
And the waiting game begins again. And as usual we will probably hear nothing specific from Samsung or Sprint about a newer update and a time frame...sigh.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Probably yanked due to that big root exploit that made its way on the market.
[Epic 4G General] Tbtltdts:
Yep, but I and probably others have all the files from the site. See threads or contact us if ya want them.

Sent from my Epic 4g Runnin Froyo...rooted for my pleasure!!
[Epic 4G General] poit:
Yeah, I noticed late last night the files were gone. I'm thinking positive here and believe it signals the imminent release of an improved Froyo.:D
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Details please or a link?
[Epic 4G General] poit:
Not likely, since that exploit would also affect all versions of Eclair. Currently only Gingerbread has a native patche for the exploit.

[Epic 4G General] elboriqua176:
should i uodate or not?

I got the files straight from the samsung website. I was literally about to update to eb13 but after reading this i am wondering if i should wait or maybe update with the roms that are out there instead? any opinion? also i spoke with a sprint store manager who told me she did the update yesterday for multiple customers using the file downloaded from samsung and there where no issues.
[Epic 4G General] bvermett:
Did my dads over the weekend and he told me yesterday his phone is working better than it ever has.

cm7 evo
[Epic 4G General] splashmktg:
When I first updated to EB13, it was aweful. I can't get Samsungs drivers to load on my Sony laptop or desktop so no rooting...plus all of the known failures.

I took it in to a Sprint Center and they had soome fixes and did a clean install for me including, the fixes. Now, for the most part, all is good. Still lousy wifi signal and no root,wired tether or wireless tether... except through The Hotspot.

The tech said it was what Samsung had given them to fix the update.
[Epic 4G General] ramsestut:
Sprint has now asked us not to do any upgrades with eb13 at all OTW. Just saw this in my email, so not sure of the details.

I see most videos on youtube of nook color are playing youtube vids but nothing else.. searching xda forums not going anywhere...

can someone try these sites like

and see if it plays on your froyo nc?

Plan to order the nook color before the $50 expires tomorrow.

thanks!
[Nook Color General] GwarSP3:
I am running CM7 and the videos play fine using Dolphin HD with the latest version of flash. Hope that helps.
[Droid X Accessories] wicket30:
So I can't post pics yet, but I am working on combining a Power A mini wiimote into a classic controller pro. It is the same thing MOG has been working on, and he has done some great stuff.

So Key points so far.

The mini wiimote does work with the Droid X at least, and it does connect to the classic controller pro.

I can't cut the wiimote pcb, because there are just too many connections all over the board, unlike the typical wiimote where the top half can be cut.

Next step is to solder the wires correctly for the wiimote and the classic controller.

Stay posted if interested. If it goes well, I plan to add a dock like MOG did, but also USB power and what not, depending how much I like it. Kind of just combining multiple things I've seen on the net.
[Droid X Accessories] wicket30:
So the soldering went well, but for some reason the player indicator lights keep flashing.
[Droid X Accessories] wicket30:
It actually didn't take long, now i just need something to glue it together. I'll post pics once I get to 8 posts.
[Droid X Accessories] trentonw:
Why....
[Droid X Accessories] brutalsnowman:
Wicked

That is totally wicked! I have been using a Wiimote to play GBA and SNES games quite a bit lately (ordered a classic controller online waiting for shipping). I love being able to not use the on screen controls.
[Droid X Accessories] Avelnan:
Why not?
[Droid X Accessories] brutalsnowman:
I did something similar to this, but did not cut the controller I used an adapter and glued it. And modded a case to attach the phone to the controller.
[Droid X Accessories] scottmog:
Looks awesome :)

I've made 2 and will make my 3rd soon. Here's the idea for my 3rd.

-must use classic controller (not pro version) this gives u a flat back surface

-wiimote will be horizontal on the back of the CC (put the trigger on the back left side) gives u a nice trigger for shooter games!

Still need to see exactly how ill mount the phone but I really want a trigger like the n64 controller.
[Droid X Accessories] marioxb:
Just found this thread while searching for advise. I want to do something like this, but I want to mount the Power A board INSIDE the CC or CC Pro shell. Has anyone tried this, will it fit? I'd like a switch on it that tells the buttons to work as CC buttons or Wiimote buttons, and add a rechargable battery and charging port. Basically I want to make a copy of the Wii U branded Interworks Pro Controller that does exactly this. I would buy one, but I hear they don't work all that well. (bad dpad, shuts off, etc).
[Droid X Accessories] nabiwolfe:
I hear the datel retro controller works. It looks just like the classic but its wireless.
[EVO Shift 4G General] bsnyder217:

Yea apparently its only a miui thing..I flashed it over our miui and I couldn't get pass htc screen so went to recovery and loaded just miui and still couldn't get it to boot that's with cwm 3 so maybe the other version will be different
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
I am looking for some testers for an experimental CM7 rom. It has some files from the soon to be released WildFire S. I am looking for feedback on if everything works the way it did with previous cm7 builds. Audio/Phone Calls/Video/Camera. Also GPS.

Newer Updated to include lastest code from cyanogenmod including FM.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10166016/ExpLiberty-03212011-cm7.0.0-RC2.zip

old

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10166016/NewLibupdate-cm-7.0.0-RC2-Liberty-KANG-signed.zip

I advise doing a nandroid in case.

This includes my new kernel as well. Please test it as much as you can and report back. I want to update our part of cyanogenmod 7 if all goes well.

Thanks for testing.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
downloading will test it out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
Add me to the list of testers. Downloading now.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
I will give it a shot
[HTC Aria Android Development] blumenthala:
What's New?

Just curious what this ROM has that the others don't. Does it have a new cool UI? Added features? Would love to be a tester, just would like to know what to look for. Thanks!
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
did you read the title?
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
OK, done downloading. I flashed over CM 7 nightly 11.

Audio worked playing music and videos.

Phone worked calling out both on ear piece and speaker phone. Phone received incoming calls and mic and ear piece worked.

Camera worked.

Hope this helps.

Video recording worked.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
same thing but it was a clean install.

except when i was done recording a video from the camera app to the gallery(thumbnail) the video said it was unable to play but actually going into the gallery it played but it recorded a bit choppy(with oc going & its kind of dark)
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
Aw....and here I thought the devs had forgotten all about the little Aria. Color me excited :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gene Poole:
I read the title. It doesn't help. What's it offer that current CM7 doesn't?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
just newer libs(libraries for audio/video im guessing) that came from the wildfire S rom dump
[HTC Aria Android Development] dcarr622:
Will a full port of the ROM from the Wildfire S eventually be possible?

If these libs are working that's a good sign...overall hardware is pretty similar, same CPU, bit more RAM, but that shouldn't stop it. I'd personally love the new Sense plus Gingerbread :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] FtaWolf:
Did clean installation here. All seems pretty sweet.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
didnt do a clean install

installed on top of cm7 - 11

audio / camera/video / phone all worked as expected on my Aria :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
Did anyone try the GPS?
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Edit: sorry wrong thread.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
Sorry, didn't try GPS. I'm already at work now and inside. I'll give it a shot later at lunch time.
[HTC Aria Android Development] plumberchuck:
downloaded over cm7 11, cannot make or receive calls (no service), gps wont load,

every thing else works fine.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
hmm odd it works for me. Did you try rebooting?
[HTC Aria Android Development] xdafly:
>> looking for some testers for an experimental CM7 rom.

>> http://www.mediafire.com/?16hgs0ezdc1p52j

jznomoney, installing this now.

this Aria (test phone) has only been 1. rooted and runs 2. Liberated B003

do you recommend a full wipe (order of wipe?), factory, dalvik, et al and does this require separate setup/install of google apps ?

thanks.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
Just a normal wipe/dalvik should do but I'm also looking for clean install results as well. The aria isn't my primary driver anymore but I still have it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
yes

This was an install over Build 11 (which had a working GPS)

First attempt to get GPS lock took about 60 seconds

Subsequent ones ~5 seconds

But working :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
OK, I had to do the CM 7 -> CM 6.1.1 -> CM 7 work-around to get GPS working, but it does work on this build.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
*Same for me
[HTC Aria Android Development] plumberchuck:
Ok got home and did clean install and everything works perfect.
[HTC Aria Android Development] FtaWolf:
GPS status not locking on with this test build with new libs..
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
Can anyone try my newer build?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
does it include the newer kernel/wifi?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
yes it does :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Damn you, jZnomoney. I just said I was done flashing nightlies until your kernel/wifi change was merged. But, since you're batting 1000 lately, I guess I'll have to give this a shot tonight. ;)
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
yea , i can test it, i will do a full wipe

Hope this was the version : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10166016/NewLibupdate-cm-7.0.0-RC2-Liberty-KANG-signed.zip

:)

***EDIT***

Did a Full Wipe

Reboot

Phone Calls : Sound/Volume seemed just fine

Camera: worked great

Video: worked great

WiFi seemed to connect super fast.

GPS: on a full wipe - it didnt work (I assume this is the same issue I have always had w/ CM7 [need to do the cm7-->cm6.1.1-->CM7 load] -

anything else you would like checked?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jeebuz:
Same. Everything worked on a full wipe including GPS. Installed over another build and everything is still working fine.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
Everything works well here, but the build.prop is set for hsxpa=1 rather than 2.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gabes Dad:
Flashed over nightly build 21 and seems to be working fantastically. GPS locks and works, phone works fine, camera and video work fine. Wifi has successfully automatically connected to 3 remembered networks. The phone does seem to be more snappy. However, the FM app force closes on me (even after clearing data). Haven't tested bluetooth yet.

I haven't tried out the newer nightlies with the merged wifi changes. Out of curiosity, would the newer Wildfire S libraries ever be merged into the official CM7 liberty branch if they get worked out?

Thanks for your work on this.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
I think I know why FM crashes. I didn't update my experimental directory to tell it to build the FM libaudio requirements.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Gabes Dad:
Thanks, FM Radio works now. I'll let you know if I find any other hardware related issues, but otherwise I am liking this. Thanks!
[HTC Aria Android Development] guido3300:
Can someone upload some screenshots?
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
It is a CM7 rom just like RC2 and the nightlies. It just has some different libraries for testing.
[HTC Aria Android Development] guido3300:
What are these libraries like?
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
It was all spelled out on the first post.
[HTC Aria Android Development] guido3300:
By libraries you mean something different than the menu for audio/video/wifi/calls??? Because if that's what it is I'd like to see it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
In this case libraries is the code that controls and interacts with the various hardware pieces such as audio, video, wifi, phone, etc. The Wildfire S is a newer HTC device that is similar to the Aria in hardware, so jznomoney is seeing if the newer code libraries from the Wildfire S will work better on the Aria than the current libraries that are implemented.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
Some other stuff may be enhanced when the wildfire s is released and it's kernel source code is dropped.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
I am testing this ROM out now. Everything seems to work the same as it did on the latest nightly...My observation so far:

It's slightly smoother (but most new flashes are), will see how long that lasts.

GPS locks slightly slower (maybe it's just me) than the latest nightly, but still very quick

WiFi works just as good.

To be tested:

I want to see how well it does with 3D games. I used to play NFS Shift on CM6 but it FC's on CM7...maybe the new libs will help.

Will keep an eye on battery life, maybe the libs increase battery life.

In wood shop, it's hard to make a smooth piece of wood smoother, and it's the same with CM7 for Aria, it's pretty smooth as is, so it's hard to make it any smoother, but fresh libs can never hurt, and an updated kernel should be even better. Great job jznomoney!!!
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
Update...the GPS does lock a little slower for me as in not as fast as the nightlies...battery life seems the same...everything else was the same as the nightlies.
[HTC Aria Android Development] plumberchuck:
flashed over n 21, picture seems sharper, bt hooks up right away and responds to voice commands, video can't really tell if its better, wifi does hook up faster, gps works ok, not any better, music hiccups slightly every two or three songs.

yes i know wifi is merged in nightlys

oops n 29
[HTC Aria Android Development] Rors:
Not getting any GPS, but havent been outside since flashing. Everything else seems ok
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
I have finished importing new stuff from liberty source, would you give it a try?

https://github.com/ladios/htc-kernel-msm7227

I haven't flash it yet. It built fine w/o error, just the same warnings introduced by usb gadget hack for gingerbread.

btw, espresso's froyo source is out. I will do a comparison later.

I will test it out asap. Thanks for the work :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:

If you have SoftKeys installed, you can set different homes for the hardware N button and the SoftKeys home button. I have mine set so that the SoftKeys home button takes me to the B&N stock home, and the hardware N button takes me to Zeam.
