i got a fancy device SHARP EM ONE(S01SH) into my hand recently. i'm really happy with this new gadget. its definitely better than my previous Jasjar isn't it?!
But now i got one hurdle which really puzzled me:
I just got the device but i don't have a e-mobile sim card, so Wifi or usb host is not enjoyable on this device. So i'm wondering if somebody is playing with this machine and is there any solution to hack it to enable Wifi and USB host?
Hi,
don't understand your question. Why are you not able to switch on Wifi? Also, I have heard of people who use some prepaid sim-cards with it.

WIFI and USB function got locked if you don't have your simcard inserted into the device. I don't have the sim card....SO i wonder if anybody get any application to unlock this? to make wifi and usb function available even without inserting SIM card.
I believe you need a w-sim card or the hardware can't receive internet data. I don't know why the usb wont work. Maybe there's a hack for the USB but you're better off searching through Japanese websites.

I searched on jpanese google and yahoo japan but fruitless...this device has wifi embedded but without original sim card wifi funcation is not available...what i expect is to enble wifi function even withou sim card inserted. may be there some hack application?
will you people please stop answering questions here?
not only it has NOTHING to do with the development section.. why the hell create a new post for it when it's perfectly clear you need to use the top sticky QUESTIONS & ANSWERS (can't be clearer than that) thread for it..
stop answering those questions so that people realize what they need to do... or better.. direct them to the correct place INSTEAD of answering.

I just recently got a t-mobile to go sim card. It works perfectly in all my other phones, and when i put it in my unlocked 8525, i could make and recieve calls, but no one could hear me whatsoever, i couldn't use any automated setups either those couldn't pick up anything either. are the specific settings for t-mobile that i need to use? The voice recording feature in notes works fine, but im not sure if it uses a seperate mic for phone. Speakerphone and the headset does not make a diference, also, I can hear myself on the phone.
I have the latest HTC Qtek rom and I have bootloader 1.09
Has anyone had this problem and can anyone help me?
I also tried it with a cingular sim card and there is still no voice
I hard reset the device and tried both sim cards and it still didn't work. is my 8525 broken? Also sometimes when I try and turn off the phone in the comm manager, it turns right back on and i get invalid sim and no service unusually often, and other times it. I think this might be a radio problem.
Does no one want to help me? or does no one know how to?

I think we don't know how. Can you access another sim from another operator and try that. I'm inclined to think there is more than just a software tweak required here and that there is a more serious fault.

Well, I tried both a t-mobile sim card, and a cingular sim card. neither worked. Also I'm pretty sure that this all started happening after I unlocked it using an unlocked code that I got from a remote imei unlocker, is there any way to reverse that? to make it locked to cingular again?
Hello all,
I've ran into some troubles with my device, since I have it running with a unlimited data transfer flatrate, that sim is blocked for incomming and outgoing phonecalls.
Solution on this trouble should be one of the dual sim adapters, which leads me to another problem. Since it seems to be impossible on my HTC Uni to have two simultaneous active cards running, the data one would be the usual active one for my needs.
But how to get the device automatically activating that sim, while its sleeping on an incomming phone call? Preferably without any costs on the data sim and extra costs on the phone sim either for me nor for the calling party.
Call deflection an possible option?
Since its probably a common issue im ashamed that I couldnt find any solution. Would be nice if I could still get some reply.
Thanks in advance,
Real.

Actually, I don't recall any dual SIM adaptor allowing 2 SIMs online at the same time. Looks like you need a phone able to handle that specific feature.
Your phone is able to handle 2 different lines at the same time ... but on the same SIM card. Some Operators used to provide this type of plan. A plan, 2 different numbers ... But same Operator !
I've heard that ETEN will release a Dual SIM PDAPhone (DX900) : http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Eten-DX900-is-dual-SIM-smartphone-article-a_2805.html
Anyway, I've been looking for the answer ... But, nothing yet.
Here is a workaround

This really sounds interesting, since I've got both of my most frequently used sims at the same provider. (Telefone/- and Dataflat)
Maybe my provider is willing to attach them both sims into one, or else theres still the chance of "doing by self". Another point is that those contracts dont have such a long lifetime anymore, so most likely this will be pretty mutch possible.
Sounds way better than buying a new phone, with the possibility of using two sim cards simultaneously.
Only one thing troubles me, since I've wrote about the HTC Adv beeing the mentioned device while it is Universal. Does that one have that feature aswell? I hope and pray, since this seems to be my last chance of having it more user friendly.
Any reply mutch obliged,
Real.
Bought a used uni from someone here and am trying to get it fixed (no gsm, wifi doesn't work, but otherwise seems fairly stable) I have no intent to use as a phone, just a connected pda around the house. I know I can always buy an sd wifi card, but that's no fun and doesn't teach me anything. I've got it all in pieces here and am hosing it down with contact cleaner, and I have an extremely basic question:
Do I have to have a sim card to use wifi?
Thanks!
No you don't need a sim card for that. I have a second mda pro at home and i don't have a sim card in it but i can still use the internet. So my answer is no.
Hello,
I'm from Belgium and I need to use the G1 for my work. I would like to use it without a sim card (or make the phone using the data of mine) but it seems impossible for the device to connect on internet.
I have just received the device today and I really need help. I have tried to find something on the forum but the only interesting thing I have found seems to say that it is possible.
Google is even worse than Apple which is already worse than Microsoft.. is there any good company in this world...
what do you mean use it without a sim card? As in the telephony and data connections with having to use a t-mobile sim card or any simcard?
This is a sim card phone meaning it has to have a simcard in order for you to use the telephony or edge/3g connections. No way around that.
And on a side note, if you want help you probably shouldn't spread your opinions about things that you don't know about and things you make assumptions for.
I can get into Android without having a Sim card inserted on Dev Phone. WLAN works without it.
But when there is a card inserted I cannot skip Sim pin to do things without having mobile operator service.

This is a "device" that is able of making call... this is not a phone.. you can't call iphones and htc devices "phones"... I don't care about the phone feature, I just need a small device with linux. If it was a phone, it would not need a gmail account... don't talk about things you don't know.

the fact is that no sim card is working... I'm currently using 3G with my HTC Shift, and using Edge/Gprs with my HTC Touch .. and no problem.. but the HTC Dream doesn't recognize the data plan !
I guess I know much more than you .. and my opinion is like 99% of user should be having this issue... what kind of phone are impossible to use like that ? I have 3 months to make a big project on that phone and I don't even know if it is possible to make it work without playing with hardspl.
That's crazy to see more protection than iPhones, and other htc phones.... 2 weeks to be able to order the phone and then I don't even know if we can make it work in this country ... GREAT !

Your issue is an APN issue.
Read one of the APN threads or learn to use the search Mr. Know-it-all.
Hi, I'm Chris from Malta and I just got my White HTC G1.
I'm still getting to use it and to its million functions and would any help from others who have the same mobile. I
have 2 major problems at the moment :
1) I can't access the numbers saved on my sim card, anyone knows if there is any setting ?
2) I can't connect with other users throuh bluetooth, they told me there is a setting but can't find it !! Any help would be appreciated.
All the software that you installed and other that u didnt etc.
Any Upgrades available ?
Thanks
Chris
1) Goto your contacts and hit the Menu button. There will be an option for importing your SIM card data.
2) At your desktop screen press Menu then go into Settings. Everything for Bluetooth is under the Wireless Controls.
Honestly the first thing I did was I rooted my phone. It's a simple process just follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442480
Reason I did that is because I wanted to install apps to my SDcard, give me access to themes, and give me the ability to tether my 3G connection to my laptop via wifi so I can play games like World of Warcraft on the go.
As for apps its up to you what you find useful. Personally I like Advanced Taskmanager (if you can't buy it I'm sure you can find the free version "Taskmanager for Root Users" somewhere but keep in mind you need a root'd phone for it), SnapPhoto (free version), ShopSavvy, Last.fm, Twidroid, and Locale.
Thanks a lot for answering Ron Overdrive
Managed the Contact thing but not the bluetooth one !! I mange to pair with others but not connect !!! Any help ?
Thanks
Chris
Bluetooth on the G1 is still a work in progress. Only two profiles are supported currently. Headset and handsfree. You will probably have to wait for google to send out an update before you can connect to other peoples phones over bluetooth.
Memory card
I'm trying to put music on my memory card inputted on the G1 but after putting the usb cable in its telling me to insert a disk into drive G when the memory card is already inside !!!
Can you help me please ?
Thanks
Chris
on your phone scroll down the notification bar.
click on the usb connection and mount your phone
out of point
not really about the subject but i just wanted to point out i'm from Gudja, i got my dev phone last December and i switched to Melita on the 6th February, I wanted to ask chris : How has it been with GO? did you get a monthly plan? and was the phone unlocked when you bought it?
thanks
Digirhino
Hi Digirhino, I'm with go on a pay as you go service. Got the phone locked, unlocked it through a code from the seller and the rest all ok.
Wanted to ask if its possible to install programs windows based such as MSN messanger etc on the android ???
Also is there any program that add time Hrs Minutes Seconds that works on the Android ?
Thanks
Chris
