Hi all!
I wanted to enjoy everything that my HD2 has to offer so today I made the switch to a provider, which offers me 1GB free traffic/month.
Great and all.. but, since I made that switch, a "1" is appearing on top, next to the connection status icons (on windows mobile).
I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my connection, because as soon as I toggle off "phone" at the wireless controls, it's gone.
Can anyone explain me what it actually means? And maybe, how I can get rid of it?
Thanks in advance

I think when the "1" is present, that means that your Line 1 is active. Same goes for other active Lines.
Atleast, with iWireless, that's the situation.
[iWireless also allows a Data Connection whilst on the phone too, so I'm assuming AT&T phones also have the "1".]
Okay, with the info you provided, i went off to scour the internet, and I found some information.
It seems indeed, that the number on top, indicates which line I'm using And, if i press the "#" on my keypad, I can switch from line 1 to line 2. This is called, alternative line service. All it does, is mapping two different phone numbers to your SIM card.
Now i'm just looking for a way to disable this, because, i don't have a second telephone number mapped to my SIM
So I was HALF way right. Pretty good guess.
I'll do some research and see if it's possible to disable the "Secondary" Line, though, I think it may be a SIM Function, not device... as you did say in your first post that you switched carriers... which means a new SIM.
As most people know, tampering with the SIM Card (Excluding your Contacts & Web Settings) can be a bad idea...

right on bro thanks for all you have and are doing
Did some research, and found out that it CAN be disabled but you have to speak to your provider about it.
The actual Service Name is called 2-in-1 Sim Service. See HERE for more info. Though that article is quite old, it seems many providers now support 2-in-1 Sim Service for Business customers that wish to have a Business Number AND a Personal Number all on one device.
I called my provider and asked about this service, and they said it is, in fact an optional service, but it's pre-configured on the SIM Card. At the moment, my provider only has one style of SIM.. so I can't remove my Secondary Line availability.
I recommend talking to your provider about the service to see if you can disable it.
Hope this helps m8.

Hi everybody
I'm wondering if any of you know whether it's possible to dump the contents of a SIM card in the phone's memory, then to be able to use the phone without the physical sim card present.
I'm engaged with two providers, to which one belongs a SIM card, and I'm forced to open my phone and switch cards when I want to switch from one network to the other... that's really unconvenient !
The point would be to have both SIM cards dumped in my phone's memory, and choose one from a software option.
I'm using a WM6 flashed HTC P3300, if that's of any use.
Thanks a lot !
I never heard about virtual SIMcard in unit memory - but you have standard solution - dualsim ( you can find different solutions - but check before buy - not all working proprly with WM phone .

thanks for your answer
this not exactly not what I need, but I'll check in that way too
No that's pretty much exactly what you need.
You want to be able to use two carriers simultaneously (or at least psuedo simultaneously) without opening the phone and manually changing SIM cards.
As far as I know this is the ONLY way to do that. And it's still not perfect. Like he said make sure the device you get is 3G compatible or it won't work right. Also if you look around they have a device that looks like vice grips with a small cookie cutter welded to it. This is what you need to cut the sim chip. you can try with a scissors but try explaining to your wireless carrier why you need a new sim card.
Also it's tough ordering over the internet because you need to make sure that whatever you get will actually fit in your specific phone (they are all designed to take a standard sim chip but NONE are "designed" to take one of these things. some work in some phones but not in others. The newer ones (which you'll need since you need 3G) usually have an "automatic" setting which basically switches back and forth between carriers without you touching it.
Good luck!
Or u can use Super SIM read here http://www.nowgsm.com/GSM6in1.htm
i also wanted to do the same thing - has anybody tried such a dual sim adapter in a treo by a chance?
also, the sim cards are definitely v2 as they've been issued within the last year and have 3g compatibility;
i'd really love to hear if it worked for somebody before i go ahead and cut the chip out of my sims
I recently bought my HTC Touch HD and I was wondering what this greyed out GPRS logo means:

I am not sure if it affects the connection, but I think I can still call and be called, but not receive text messages. Although I haven't really tested that yet. I already tried searching the manual, but it doesn't mention anything about it.
I have installed the following software and updates on the phone
- Official HTC ROM upgrade
- Microsoft .NET CF 3.5
- TomTom Navigator
- HD Tweak
- TF3D Theme Maker 3.3
- Sprite Backup
- Pocket Sudoku (game)
- I244 Atomic Cannon (game)
I am not using internet on my phone yet.
Can somebody explains what this greyed out logo actually means and does to my phone?
Thanks in advance.
i had this recently but it was because i hadn't paid my bill!
think it means you have no internet access due to it not being allowed.
i thought it was a taskbar glitch
i had it for the first time the other day but only when i left coreplayer
i assumed the screen was having trouble coming back frm the display correctly
Its because your internet has been disabled.
You prob wont have mms access either.

I'm with PiLoT on this. I had this about a year ago and it wasn't just with this symbol, also for HSPDA. Phone connected fine to internet but symbol was still greyed out. It was a glitch which sometimes went away with a soft reset. I'm not 100% sure how I eventually fixed it, possibly a combination of changing taskbar/rom etc
i didnt need to soft reset though i just waited a few seconds and it happened
I don't think it's a glitch, I read somewhere that it's a different type of connection, may have been in the Orange guide which came with the phone... I'll try and have a look around for it and let you know
I get the greyed out logo when I disable GPRS Auto Attach using Advanced Config (in Data Connections section). The greyed out logo can be G, or H depending on the coverage at my location. Re-enabling GPRS Auto Attach sets the icon back to normal.
The greyed out logo just means that it cannot establish a data connection with the tower that you are currently registered with.
This will be for one of two reasons;
1) you've turned off your data connection (as the user above has)
2) there is a temporary problem with the network/tower
Hey guys,
I have been looking several days for an option to toggle 3g <-> 2g but it simply isn't there where it supposed to be.
After discovering this article I'm wondering why this feature is missing in all wp7 samsung devices.
I really miss this option because I get at home barely 1 bar on 3g and thats not very good for the battery.
I thought that OEMs aren't allowed to customize the os on this level but why is this option not visible ?
Regards
I always thought that this option has been disabled by my provider because "3" doesn't have 2G at all. All GSM data is transferred via Roaming with A1 mobilkom.
Don't know, I've realised that my Omnia7 doesn't have this option but I don't miss it though.
worth a ponder

My boyfriend's Trophy has the 3g toggle located in settings. He's using vodafone. My omnia however is missing the feature. HTC vs samsung or carrier difference?
According to Orange it is missing on all Omnia 7s as it's missing from the Samsung software.
Thanks for your answers but nevertheless I'd like to hear why samsung did exclude this feature on their wp7 phones because I couldn't barely find any information about it on the internet.
It's incomprehensible and there we see that samsung failed once again with "their" software. Toggle 2g is an option that I really won't miss specially in areas where I have bad signal. I'm going to contact samsung to see what they say about it.
Regards

Would be interesting to know, but don't get your hopes high...I cannot remember any time Samsung answered a support question for me
My Omnia 7 has this setting. I have a 16 GB device from T-Mobile Germany running on o2.
My Omnia 7 also has this setting (Optus stock [unlocked] 8GB version).
Settings > Mobile Network
What I LOVE about these settings is that whenever my phone tries to access the internet and 3GB/Data is turned OFF, it won't force it on. Infact, unless you have Wi-Fi turned on, it will just say it's unable to access a data connection.
More than I can say for Windows Mobile, which always turned it on no matter what you told it to do.

So it's not Samsung's idea but, more likely, our provider's idea to cut this setting.
First thing I noticed on my T-Mobile Stock Note 4 Running 6.0.1 was that the "Flashlight" and "MobileHotspot" Quick Settings Tiles were removed. Now I've already gone through other threads and found an app that allowed me to restore them.
Their respective names are TorchLight and WiFiHotspot.
Now I'm not sure what to exactly call these besides sysui_qs_tiles, but I've found several other tiles that work on my Note 4. Namely SmartScroll, AirView, and AirGesture.
Is there a list out there that has all possible Quick Setting Tiles for android 6.0? I was surprised to find that Smart Scroll was still available in android 6.0 on the Note 4, it does not even show up within my settings and yet this Quick Setting Tile lets me activate it. I'm curious as to what other tiles are hidden but compatible with the Note 4.
Here is my current Quick Setting Item's:
Code:
Wifi;MobileData;SilentMode;AutoRotate;TorchLight;Bluetooth;Location;PowerSaving;PersonalMode;WiFiHotspot;WifiCalling;NetworkBooster;UltraPowerSaving;MultiWindow;AirplaneMode;AllShareCast;Nfc;SideKey;Sync;SmartStay;DormantMode;CarMode;TouchSensitivity;AirView;AirGesture;SmartScroll;

Great post
It is a lot harder than I thought it would be to get a list like this. I asked 2 people to click the google play link, install Settings Database editor in an instant, click open, select secure table menu top right and scroll to sysui and copy the long list of words. Ended up spending more time than it would take trying to get something so easy... and with no way of having them screw anything up.... ADB will never exist in their reality. I should know bettter. Anyway I am in the middle of discussions between samsung and VMC as to why I receive a notification that my phone supports wifi calling, how I signed up for it via a shortcut app and am fully registered, how is it possible to simply choose to not allow thousands of your customers this feature simply because we won't waste money on a new phone? Nothing to do with monthlly package.... yeah this is happening to a lot of people....
so here are mine. The last 2 I tried to add hoping to make a toggle. no go. I am scheduled for a call tomorrow from a non virgin employee. Probably they can enable it as an individual entry and the call center doesn't have the feature to enable the feature no A5 user is worthy of. Not until thousands more start calling.
Is it possible that Samsung is fed up with carriers dictating how their device operates, spread millions of A5's and lit a fire? I mean, technically every single A5 owner in Canada gets a big pop up saying they have this feature and the carrier must either allow it, or admit they cripple your device as punishment for not getting one you don't even need. I put my tiles in and the screenshot that could change a lot very soon as more people figure out what's going on here. It is one thing for a device to become obsolete, but when it is flat out stolen, Samsung sure did let us know who it was without saying it at all. They all suck anyway.
xda has already saved 2 of my friends hundreds of dollars and myself.... same with current phone usage. No carrier or manufacturer can do that. It's like hating your wife.
My tiles: (pics in panel and other 2 from wifi a5 fiasco)
Wifi,MobileData,Location,Flashlight,Bluetooth,RotationLock,SoundMode,custom(com.samsung.android.smartmirroring/.tile.SmartMirroringTile),custom(com.android.settings/com.samsung.android.settings.qstile.SecAccountTiles),custom(com.samsung.android.app.aodservice/.settings.AODTileService),custom(com.google.android.gms/.nearby.discovery.ui.DiscoveryTileService),custom(com.pranavpandey.rotation/.service.RotationTileService),custom(com.android.nfc/com.samsung.android.nfc.quicktile.NfcTile),custom(projekt.substratum/.services.tiles.SubstratumTile),custom(com.samsung.android.oneconnect/.external.DeviceVisibilityTile),custom(com.android.settings/com.samsung.android.settings.qstile.PowerSavingTile),BlueLightFilter,AirplaneMode,Hotspot,Dnd,WorkMode,WifiHotspot,WifiCalling,NetworkBooster
Interesting but using that app it seems the toggles which are added arent permanent. As soon as you untoggle them the whole quick panel collapses, and if you open up the stock editor they are deleted.
When I receive a call, the phone number in Call History is in format +1 514-XXX-XXXX(Space between 1 and 514) so when I call back the carrier block the call. I have to the write down the number and manually type the number by taking out space and dash to make a call go through. It's so annoying to do this every time. Even if I save the number by taking out space, it still there. Any solution to fix this? Can I replace default Dialer and Contacts App.

That’s Normal and how it’s supposed to show up, on income calls for both T-Mobile and AT&T anyway for me. And never have any issue calling it back. Spaces shouldn’t have anything to do with calling it back. Now sometimes having that 1 there might throw off the Carrier. But the spaces won’t do anything.

It’s like this on both iPhone and Android.

If iPhone you there’s no 3rd party Dailer

I don’t see any issue with having spaces as spaces wouldn’t have an effect on it. What message are you getting?
The spaces are Normal

It says "This call is blocked". When I input the number manually without space, it works. I insert the sim card into another phone which format has no space (+1514XXXXXXX) and it works, which mean the space is the problem. Do you know how to replace default dailer? Just to try and see if it works with new dialer.

You can try looking In the play store. Make sure you don’t have any international dialer helpers enabled.
What provider are you using?

I just want to inform that I found the solution. Just flash Custom Rom and it's fixed.
