Deleting #777 connection? - Mogul, XV6800 General

Is there way to delete the HTC_CM_Guardian located in \windows. It has file permissions of read only, System, and Rom. If you try to change them they get set back, if you try to delete it you get “HTC_CM_Guardian is in ROM memory! You cannot delete it”.
If you do not pay for EVDO, if you get rid of this file you are able to remove the #777 connection, and not have to worry about it connecting to sprint and billing you (at least this is what worked in the last rom version).
If there is no way to remove the file, is there a way to prevent it from installing after a Hard reboot?

Sprint Operator Files

I'm in dire need of assistance please. This is my first attempt of cooking my own ROM so please pardon if the question is dumb.
I have a kitchen for the Sprint Touch (CDMA Vogue). It's a 19588 based clean kitchen.
However, when I launch Pocket IE and it attempts connect, the following error is displayed:
Cannot Connect
Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap settings.
I recently found out the ROM is Sprint Based, and the IOTA from OEMAPPS, the Registry and initflashfile.dat were deleted. In order to have this connection set up automatically I should I should just drop the Operator files and folders back into OEM.
Okay great. I got a hold of the Sprint Leaked 3.02 ROM and was able to extract the OEM and SYS folders. I found the OEMOPERATORS, OperatorPKG, and OperatorPKG_PT folders. I noticed the OperatorPKG includes a bunch of files and customizations I don't want or need.
All I like to do is have the phone setup the Sprint PCS connection which dials #777 when an application attemps to access the internet.
Would some one please be kind enough to advise me which files I need to copy into my OEM folder in order to accomplish this.
Thank you.

I think I deleted my wifi program

I was deleting some files in file explorer and I clicked on something that prompted me with the warning that if I continue other programs that use this will no longer work. I meant to hit no but my finger must have hit yes. I'm not sure of the actual file I deleted but since I did that I cannot connect to my wireless network and the wifi icon in the settings->connections tab is missing.
Other than a reflash, is there a way to get this back?
ok so a soft reset got my wifi back but I still have no idea what I deleted. Is there a way to find out?

ROM Development - Radio OFF on first boot

Does anyone have any ideas on this? I am looking for a way to have my custom ROM boot with the radio off (until I turn it on would do the trick also). My reason ... I turn off the radio, run backups, flash ROM (phone turns on), I get a text message (no contacts yet, so I don't know who its from) and I loose the message once I do a restore.
I will be attempting to write some software to auto-restore the backups also ... This would make flashing a painless process. When you are developing a custom ROM, there is a LOT of flashing.
Thanks.

Don't select "Delete messages from database" in PIMbackup while restoring.
That is my work-around ... I use SPB Backup on a schedule to backup every day. My work-around is to backup the "missed" messages with PIM Backup, restore my SPB backup, then restore just the "missed" messages with the "Delete messages from database" option selected ... The restore appears to hang, but it does complete if you give it enough time. I prefer SPB Backup because the restore is a LOT faster ... I have about 4500 SMS messages in my phone, and PIM Backup restores them quickly, but takes about 1 second for each one to load in the Messaging app.
Thank you for the feedback.
Try areas like
Code:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State
phone=0
wireless=0
I think I had these in a provxml and the phone would not start until I went into CommManager and restarted it.
There are flags under this key in subkeys like coldreboot, on and reboot. I am not sure what they need to be set to, if at all, but maybe this will head you in the right direction.
RoryB - Thank you ... I'll give that a try later tonight. I think I tried just setting phone to 0 already ... I'll play around with it and see if I can pull it off.
PS - I added a signature.
Ok ... I tried setting these two values manually in a running ROM using a registry editor ... This did not disable the radio. I am going to export my registry to a file with the radio on, and again with the radio off ... I'll compare these files and find the keys/values I need to set. When I find them, I'll post em here in case anyone else wants this functionality.
Start your device without SIM card after flashing. Do your restore and insert SIM.
OK, I've made a small exe for you, place it in UC script of
your ROM or execute anytime you want. It should disable phone
radio using TAPI interface, just like Comm Manager do (I think)...
the_ozyrys ...
It didn't work ... I mean ... The program turned off the radio, but the text message was already received by the phone. I think I have to remove the carrier settings from the ROM, then install via a CAB after the radio has been turned off.

or: lock the sim by a PIN code....after first boot, you have to enter the PIN for the SIM, if you don't, you do not get any service

So place it somewhere in registry startup (for example HKCU\Software\HTC\Bootlauncher\Apps) and add a PROVXML entry to delete this value during customization...
This sounds interesting. Would I need to change order of any apps in bootlauncher reg? I'll give it a try. Have a problem sometime with connection setup fighting with UC for screen.
Not sure if you "remove the SIM card" guys realize this ... This is a CDMA phone ... There is no SIM card.
On my device, the Apps key doesn't exist ... Just Services. Can I just create the Apps key? I was thinking something similar to this in the HKLM\init key "Launch##" values. Not sure which number to put it as.
Here is a list of the values in my HKLM\init

Change Turnoffradio to 1, then it wont turn radio on, until you turn it on manually!

I did this, when the phone first boots it gives a cprog is not a valid wm program error message. I went to CommManager and system was in flight mode I selected phone to start. It shows selected, but never connects to service. I checked key and it was set back to 0. Tried reset and still no good. Taking it back to origninal.
Nevermind: there was a corupted setup so cprog did not work. Fixed that. These settings did not stop the radio in my phone.
I changed the TurnRadioFlag value to 1, and the "LOCK:Enabled" line in SDConfig.txt turns the radio off. The problem is, the radio is still turned on before this point, so by the time the radio is turned off, any pending text messages are already received. I even tried setting the ...
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State]
"Wireless"=dword:00000000
"Phone"=dword:00000000
Something a little different.
Try cooking ROM with cprog.exe called _cprog.exe and use something to rename it after you get started.
accidentially read through this 3d..
i suggest applying these lines in a rgu or app.reg if you use new bepe kitchen:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\RIL]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone]

How remove the "Do you want to go online?" warning

I have a t-mobile HD2 and everytime I launch the internet browser (Opera) it brings up this really annoying "Do you want to go online?" warning. This happens whether Opera is launched from the Sense UI or directly from the start menu.
I can not find anything in the registry to remove this. I have also noticed in the \Windows folder that there is a "BrandedBrowser.exe", which seems to be the cause, because if I run it (and Opera is not already running) then it brings up the warning and then launches Opera, however, if I run the OperaL.exe file directly then it doesnt display the warning.
How can I modify the Sense UI so that it launches the OperaL.exe instead of the BrandedBrowser.exe?
Any ideals peeps?
To launch OperaL.exe as the default instead of BrandedBrowser.exe just use a program like total commander to rename Brandedbrowser to brandedbrowser_bkp.exe (just so you have a backup copy should you ever need it), then make a copy of operaL.exe and rename it as BrandedBrowser.exe
Make sure it stays in the windows directory.
I just tried this myself and it worked.
The branding still appears but it doesn't ask me if i want to go online anymore
Thanks very much
I can't seem to do this. I have Total Commander installed but whenever I change the file properties to uncheck System and Read Only, it just reverts back so that I can't rename or delete it.
How do I do this?

Strange. When I did it, I didn't change any of the files properties. I just renamed it. Make sure the browser isn't running in the background. You can close it fully with the task manager. If it is running perhaps you can't edit the file name.
Perfect. I must have had the browser running in the background without realising last time. I've just had another go with the stock File Manager and it's worked a treat
Now.....I just need to find a way of switching off HSDPA (but keeping 3G) switched on in this T-Mobile UK 1.43 ROM

That's the easy part
Go to Settings, Menu, All Settings, Connections, and Advanced Network. It's the 1st option you'll see.
Unfortunately it seems to be missing from this ROM. In advanced settings I have 3 tabs: GPRS (authentication method), CSD Line Type and SMS Service. I think T-Mobile have removed it for some reason.
Is there a registry key I can change?

I had the same problem.
I thought it might've been because I was using an old version of Total Commander, so I updated that to the latest one but it still wouldn't work.
To fix the problem I copied the original read only files to my PC desktop, unticked the read only attribute, copied them to my SD card, then moved them from there back into the Windows directory on the phone, and finally changed the file names.
I rebooted the phone to make sure the changes had stuck, and they had.
Much rejoicing was made.
If I can find a way to switch HSDPA off and keep 3G on, and improve general stability I'll be 99.9% happy with the HD2. If only I could update the ROM without voiding the warranty
Come on T-Mobile, hurry up an release a 1.48 ROM!!!!! :

HTC Magic with no data plan need help.

i just bought a htc Magic. I do not have a date plan!
How do i block all the applications that use the interent so i don't get charged for using data?
But
When i am in a wifi area i want to be able to use the applications like internet because it will be free because it is WIFI.
I have bin trying to research the htc magic... Not sure exactly what rooting is but i am interested in loading a custom driver or something along those lines. i want to be able to install apps on my memory card and remove stock apps that come with my "Rogers provider" and apps like "market"
Can anyone help me?

The simple solution is to rename your default APN to something else.
For example:from default to default_off.
You can find this settings under settings->Wireles&Networks->Mobile Networks.
Or download application like "Apn switch" from market that wil do the same
Joze
there is no Wireles&Networks in the setting option there is Wireless controls.
Can some one help me? i want to restrict my apps on my HTC magic from using data from rogers. But if i am in wifi i don't care if they get information from that(like weather market etc.).
Also how do i delete stock apps that came on my HTC because i go into my all program and there is crappy rogers apps and some crappy HTC apps i can't delete
( i have bin getting texts fROM rogers saying that i am trying to use data)
please can some one help me. If i need a custom rom i will do that if necessary.( i like that stock rom that came with my HTC tho)
Well, have you looked in there for mobile networks and APNs or Access point names?
I have Android 2.1 installed and so I have diferent settings menu.
ok i found something that says APN i typed in default_off and saved it. ( before it said something with rogers name in it)
So now my phone woun'r try and use data?
Actualy you should have changed APN type not APN name from default to something else.
Sorry I was not clear anough.
Yes changing the name does nothing, you will need to either delete the APN settings called Rogers or Rogers MMS and/or blank all the settings in the Rogers APN.
Custom ROM's are not always needed to install apps from the sdcard. Just install Astro File Manager from the Market (free) then go to the root of your sdcard and click on the app/apk you have on your sdcard and allow it to install.
Also do not delete the Market that it used to get the apps you want using wifi unless you are downloading the apk and putting them on your sdcard to install.
You need to edit the APN and change the APN address that says something like "rogers-core-appl1.apn" to something else. Problem is, I'm pretty sure this will get repopulated on reboot.
Why not just call Rogers and have them block ALL mobile data on your account, then you have no worries.
waaaaaait a minute.
correct me if im wrong but isnt this a simple way of doing this:
settings --> wireless controls --> uncheck mobile network
for me (running official rogers 1.5 rom with sense UI update), this turns off all data services and maintains voice functionality.
when i turn on wifi and connect to a wifi network, my data services are good to know as they automatically use the wifi connection.
shouldnt this do the trick? or do not all ROMs have the setting above that i mentioned?
i wasn't able to go into Access Point names and delete Rogers but i went in and changed APN and APN address and changed it to default_off. But then i changed MMSC: "i'm not able to show you the adress" to blank. After i did that it let me delete the hole access point thanks everyone i think its going to work now haven't bin getting any e-mails from rogers.
Yea ill try asking them to block ALL mobile data to my account. But not sure if they will because they normally don't sell smart phones without a data plan.
Yea i all ready downloaded and installed astro file manager. Ill just load up apps from the pc because i think market uses mobile data because when i go to use it it says "Background data disabled"... And I'm not sure if i should enable it.
thanks everyone think it's all good now
"background data" what dose that mean? dose it mean mobile data usage or dose it just mean programs running in the background
Apps running in the background is what android does anyway. "Background data" is exactly what it says "data" that happens in the "background"(IE: when you exit the app). "Data" being information that transfers over the mobile data network.
Edit: On my MT3G on T-Mobile, changing the APN so that it's invalid (example, my APN is epc.tmobile.com I simply took out the periods) disables the data connection. It was not corrected by a reboot. However, I'm on Cyanogenmod 5.0.7 test5, not a default rom.
I'm a little confused. should i enable "background data"?
But keep in mined i don't want to use mobile data.. i only use wifi
......... bump...
