Need to activate MyTouch 3g on Rogers (I used the search button) - myTouch 3G, Magic General

There is absolutely no way I can get a SIM card with data and I need to have my 300$ flashlight go past the Android activation screens.
What are my options? I'm growing desperate here!
(P.S: What the f*** Google?)

Anyone? I really need help

you should just be able to click skip.... been a while since i set up rogers firmware.... try the home key?

It's a T-Mobile myTouch 3G, not a Rogers HTC Magic.
I tried the four courners press, searching for a skip button, EVERYTHING! Nothing can be done and the "data day pass" from Rogers is a bundle of bugs that needs to be activated via a WAP browser, but not from my Treo, apparently.
What a clusterf***.

Sorry man,but if the four corners does not work,u can try rooting via the sdk cause i camt geta data sim.

Yeah. I've been looking at the documentation for hours, but it's so fragmented it's nearly impossible to get anything done in a night. Besides, I've got one of those "Perfect SPLs".
I will pay Rogers a visit tomorrow and from there I'll just borrow one of theirs. Hopefully I've got the right APN settings
For tonight, I've had enough of this ridiculous waste of time. I'm out.

Fixed: Text Messaging and Calls

So I've had the G1 since it came out and have been having no problems with it until this week. When my girlfriend and I txt or call eachother it won't work. I have no problems contacting other people. She also has the G1 and she has the same problem too.
First when I txt and try to send the red pending message thing stays on the txt for a long time and then it gives me an error. I have full signal and have 3g. She has the same problem too.
When I try to call her it goes straight to her voicemail and vise versa.
We also tried using IM but the same problem happens and our conversations always get dropped. This has been really pissing us off because we have been using T-mobile together for 4 years now. WTF!?
Are others of you having the same problem when conversating with other G1 owners?
Thanks
Its a sign telling you that you should break up with your GF.
First thing first have you tried restarting your phone by taking the battery out.(you would be suprised how many people don't do this and 80% of the time it fixes the issue.)
Second if you have a long thread of text with her(over 150) try deleting that.
Third if that doesn't work then do a hard reset on each others phones. You won't loose your contacts, the will show up again once you log back in. Try texting and calling each other on fresh phones. If it works start re installing your apps one at a time and texting each other between each one. It could be an app as well blocking you guys.
Still having issues looks like a call to T-mobile tech support is in your future and possibly a warranty exchange.
dont why is that, but deleting some sms messages would help a lot. try those issues from above poster. good luck & dont give up w/your gf
If it's happening on both phones, it sounds like it might be a network issue? Contact T-Mo.
Thanks for your help guys, I'm not a newbie with phones so I did all what's mentioned above.
Took out battery, reseted both phones, hard reseted both phones, installed apps one at a time and we still have that problem. We both delete the threads before they reach 100 so that can't be it.
The problem usually happens at night, I'm going to call T-mobile tomorrow and see if we can get an answer.
Thanks again

Are you two on separate accounts with T-Mo? If on same account, do you both have a separate dataplan for each G1? I'm just grabbing at straws here, but the way it only malfunctions when you two contact each other seems to suggest it's got something to do with your G1 plan(s)/service(s).

Yes we have a family plan with the unlimited text and data.
I just checked out my account on My T-mobile and they didn't recognize my phone. I tried to change my myfaves but that didn't work so the site is down. It could be that T-mobile is having some sort of issue.

As I understand it, each G1 must have its own dataplan, even if you are sharing the same voice plan (i.e. family plan). Perhaps the sales rep who set up your G1s didn't know this and only added one dataplan? When you communicate between your two G1s it would appear to T-Mo's network as the same data customer trying to call/sms itself. Hence the screwiness?
Just a theory.

I understand where you're coming from but we have the same voice plan with two separate data/text services.
When we try to call it takes several attempts for it to go through but most of the time our calls are dropped within a minute. Text works most of the time.

Ahh. Still, it definitely seems to be a T-Mobile issue. I would suggest bringing both phones into a T-Mo store and having them take a look at that and maybe your account as well. If any of the sales reps there has a G1, try calling it.

One problem i have seen a couple of times, when i have 3g turned on, I cant call out send or receive text messages, and only seems to happen in certain areas of my town. If i disable 3g everything works fine. My roomate has the same issue with his G1 in the same areas of town as well.
Update:
Both of our phones seem to be working fine today. I still don't know what it was though. If it happens again then I'm definitely going to a T-mobile store.
Thanks guys

offhand, have you reported that to t-mobile? thats the only way things will ever get fixed, if you havn't. Call drop/similar issues are taken seriously by tmobile and they will send a tech to check it out (though you may be unaware). If the tech can recreate your trouble, it will be fixed.
Update:
Both of our phones are fixed! I called T-mobile and they said that problem has happened before, our sim cards needed to be changed so we can be able to use the 3g.
We both went to the T-mobile store today and got them replaced with no problem and now everything is perfect.
One of the many reasons I love T-mobile and my G1!

Ahh yeah if you are using a legacy SIM that would definitely kill your 3G joy. Need a USIM for 3G I'm glad T-Mo was able to fix it for ya.
Edit: By the way you might want to revise the title of this thread with "Fixed" so folks don't unintentionally bump it a few months later.

Good idea, My SIM card was about 5 years old.
We have problem here and there but it's just service issues.

You do not need a USIM for tmobile. The sim he had may have been too old, but i have not changed my sim for at least 2-3 years and i can swap my sim into any phone i choose. ATT requires a USIM i believe, but tmobile service will work with either... can anyone actually chime in that has an offical t-mo USIM?

Oh! Didn't know that. I had T-Mo years ago, but have been with AT&T for the past two years due to a promotional pricing.

HTC Hero (CDMA / SPRINT) flashed to Cricket Wireless

for those who may be interested...it is possible to have your hero flashed to work on the Cricket network. it may not be for everyone, but i couldn't resist the lure of $40/mo unlimited everything with no contract. (saves around $1,000+ over the life of the contract)
here's what i did:
-buy cdma hero on ebay
-go to a cricket store and ask them to activate the phone
-usually the rep will "know a guy" who can work with htc (try a few stores or call around)
-they may charge you $30 or so to flash it and its working
wireless data, visual voicemail, and mms dont' work...but they expect to get them working soon (phone is only a few weeks old at this point)... and where i'm at, i almost always have wifi and don't care about vm or mms.
Might see if any of these guys know about xda...perhaps they just need to be pointed here to share the wealth of what they're doing.
HTC Hero Phone Code Numbers ##
if you do transfer to cricket (or perhaps another cdma carrier), a good thing to know is:
##000000#
this will allow you to edit or view EPST (change/view your Mobile Directory Number MDN and MSID)
The MDN is your current phone number, your local cricket store can give you your MSID (which also depends on your phone number).

Not so far away
I´m in Mexico, and I have a Hero woking here with data. So far it´s 1x, but I only worked on it for about 3 hours. After this long weekend (we have monday off here) I´ll get to work on it to make Ev work.
Don´t lose heart It´ll get there.

The radio is separate from the OS and the traditional CDMA tools work on the Hero like any other phone. There are plenty of other forums talking about how to port CDMA phones to other providers; especially Indian forums because there are large CDMA networks there.
Edit: when he says "flash it," he probably just means to put a new PRL (preferred roaming list) and editing the details under ##DATA to match what another provider wants.

"Broadband Workaround Trick"
Hey guys!
I'm new to the Hero (CDMA Sprint flashed to Cricket) and Android. Totally new. I'm no stranger to Windows Mobile though, I've been a pretty intense user and contributor to development on the Axim x51v. Thought it was time to update though, and here I am.
Now, I've googled my butt off (which is going to make it tough to poop later, for sure), and I just can't find much detail or step by step info on how to get internet access working on this thing other than Wifi.
I have phone/text, and I also bought a Cricket Broadband plan to go along with it.
My phone is not rooted, not unlocked, unless this was part of what they did at the Cricket store to get my Hero flashed to Cricket.
I've read some mentions in google searches about a way to use my Broadband service through my phone... but I need some step by step info on how to do this. Can anyone help? What would be handy, as a somewhat savvy noob, would be prerequisites, instructions, and info I'll need to do this.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help, and I apologize in advance if I didn't google well enough before asking... although I definitely gave it a damn good shot before asking for help!
I've never tried it, so i don't know, but i have flashed a lot of WM phones to cricket with working mms and WAP. I would think you could get the internet to work by entering first changing your msl to 000000 and then just entering in all the correct settings in your EPST like you would a windows mobile phone?
cricket wap on hero
the phone has built in proxy support so u can download anycut from the market and input "wap.mycricket.com" and "8080" in the proxy settings. however most of the internet apps dont work, but the browser does. i believe the broadband hack or possibly the html plan will help in getting the internet apps to work but havent tried yet
htc hero wap no working
.i have a sprint htc hero that had cellular south on it now its flashed to cricket.the only thing working is calling.can you walk me through getting internet.i belive my wap setting are set up,but when i try and connect to mobile network it says "standbye for connecting to mobile network then connecting and keeps repeating"i have read that iv got to root the phone.iv been trying to root with no success.and hepl please .ty
htc hero cricket
please help dont want to try anything till im shure .lol
its actually possible. my friend works for cricket and got a sprint branded touch pro working. he just has voice and mms. but its a start i guess. i needs my data lol.
so why would you want a hero that only half the features work on?
i have an htc hero...i live in laredo tx..if anyone knows how i can flash this cell phone to cricket please let me know..they have told me that they dont have the software to do so..please HELP ME!!! *TeAr* and where did u guyz flash it so i can go overthere if i cant do to here....

Error 67 on Sprint Hero. Data not working

I am on an older plan and I don't want to switch to a more expensive everything data plan since I only use my data plan for email, so I bought a Hero and changed the esn to match the one on my current phone, a Q9c. The esn switch worked fine and I now have phone/texts on my Hero, but neither 1x nor evdo works now. I get Error 67...something about username and password being incorrect. I have no idea how to fix this. I added the username in the ##3282# menu, but I didn't see anything about a password in there. My HA shared secret is 'secret' like I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be, but I don't know what my AAA shared secret is or is supposed to be. Do i have to find this in the Q9c and transfer it over? I'm completely lost. Anyone have any tips or ideas on how I can get my data working?

Im pretty sure thats why you have not got an answer!
Everyone is going to err on cautious side.
Yeah, the only thing worse then ESN swapping is murder.
I'm not asking how to do an esn swap...just merely explaining all the facets of my problem so someone can help me out. I understand it's a touchy subject, but despite any 'laws' to the contrary I don't feel what I did was wrong. They're both my phones and I'm not stealing service. I think it's ridiculous that Sprint thinks it has the right to tell me which phones I can and can't use on my plan. I wish I had a gsm provider...I don't think this would be as much of a problem.
Anyway, I really don't want this to get off topic. The only thing that should matter is I am getting Error 67 when I try to make a data connection. How do I fix this? Should I call Sprint...will they give me data connection settings? Do I have to find a way to get the AAA shared secret off my old phone? Am I just screwed? Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.
I feel your pain. Try going into... Menu > Settings > About Phone > System Updates and Update Profile.
Hope it works.
Thanks for the tip. I tried it and the screen reads "The network is preparing your services. Please wait." Then the Error 67 window pops up a couple times, and after a few minutes the screen reads "The profile update could not be completed. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service. Error code:1012". Thoughts? How does this update work anyway? Does it use the data connection to update?
Had this problem before, spent hours with a Sprint's advanced tech support to try and solve the problem. The problem occured when I switched from one custom rom to another, then I restored a nandroid backup of the previous custom rom on top of it. My Hero starting bugging out after this. They couldn't help solve the problem, but they also didn't know about my flashing spree.
The only way I solved the problem was to RUU to Sprint's official rom. Even after I did this it took about 24hrs to register with Sprint for some reason.
Good luck.
Either RUU or reset to factory default on the phone.
I wouldnt call sprint. Them probably already know somethings not right.
You copied the MEID DEC number off your q9c to the hero.
So what sprint sees is a MEID DEC number of a Q9c
And they also see a MEID HEX of a HTC HERO.
I belive this is how it is, i could be wrong.
I say this because ive been told that the Hexadecimal numbers are specific to a general device (EG>>HERO)
And that a Decimal Numbers are specific to the end user device
So they got a Q9c trying to provision as a HERO

Correct me if I'm wrong but RUU is basically just reflashing the phone with the factory software, no? Assuming so, why would I need to do that? I'm working with a Sprint Hero that hasn't been flashed/rooted so I'm pretty sure it's still running the original software.
Anyway, I'm pretty desperate (and a hard reset doesn't seem to have fixed anything) so I'm willing to try anything if it has a chance of working. Is this the RUU I should use?

That isn't weird at all to ask unless you think you know this person
I had this happen to me the other day. Well, all of my stuff is legit, but Error 67 was poping up on both my phones.
They had me do this:
##3282#
Wait for a second - its slow
enter your MSL(Not sure if you need the old phones or the Hero's MSL)
GO into EDIT mode
Email address should be [email protected] - They had me change mine from FirstLast01 to [email protected]
Click Menu
Tap Comit(I Think, Maybe Restore..I can't remember)
Reboot the phone
Handsfree activation MAY kick off.
Got to Menu>Settings>About Phone> System Updates> Update Profile
Let it spin...
Turn the phone off, pull the batter for about a minute.
reboot the phone.

that doesnt seem to work for me (though the picture has the exact same looking google screen) maybe im jsut doing it wrong is there a certain speed to do it?
If it is unlocked it should not ask about activation... the other option is go to you cell phone provider or friend to let u borrow the similar with data to activate... once activated u can turn the wifi and will not ask for data plan.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
will i be able to activate it with any data plan or does it need to be t-mobile?
does anyone know? i dont want to get a month of data and not even be able to activate it
You can use any SIM card (as long as it is unlocked) if you set up the APN right.
thx everyone
did it work?

Bell Atrix Experience

Hey Guys,
Wanted to share some initial impressions of my new Bell Atrix.
Picked it up yesterday and had to sign a 1month contract (purchased mine full price at $600 + tax). I emailed a guy from one of the threads on here for an unlock code (im on a corporate fido plan) and got the unlock code in literally 2 hrs!! (VERY IMPRESSED!--he is very inexpensive aswell --$20 USD for unlock codes) -- i can provide the email address of the guy if anyone is looking to unlock.
It seems like my WIFI isnt working. It keeps scanning for wifi networks and when i put in my wifi password, it just wont connect. ive got thru the forums here and noticed that others have had this issue, anyway i can fix this without having to get another unit?
I am still in the process of configuring it, but dont want to go too far ahead without getting the Wifi issue resolved. I will be contacting Da_G to do a system dump and see if i can put gingerblur on there.
Mods: If this thread can be integrated into another one, please do so.

I havent rooted it yet. Im still new to Android -- ive been on the corporate iPhone 3gs for a year now...waiting for a smartphone that would be a big bump up from my iphone. Never really felt any of the previous phones cut it / would be a big jump from what im doing on my 3gs. Having said that, my brother is samsung galaxy S user and is accustomed to android for the last 8 months or so..so we'll be playing with this phone all weekend and seeing where things go. Ive also contacted Da_G for a info on a system dump.
I needed to add APN setting for FIDO...here is the forum i used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537829

Update: one the Bell atrix forum, one of the posters mentioned that it was my security type for my network. I am able to connect to my work network fine so i think ill change the security type at home and give it another go. for now, all is good!

Thanks. But still weird that WPA2 only works until you SIM unlock, and after that, you need mixed mode.
