Device name.. - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

How do I change the device name that is in the android build to a motorazr v3? Tmobile is detecting that I am on a Nexus One with darkstone v2 build. So Im thinking i might be able to take advantage of the $10 unlimited web plan that they are offering. Can someone tell me how to change the name or direct me to a link with instructions?

won't work.

You'd be better asking in the general Android Hacking and Development forum. This forum is for HD2 Android specific development only.
Or try asking in the Q&A thread at the top of this forum.
And as said above, it's unlikely to work anyway...

listen cheap skate if you cant afford it why own it??? besides there is already a guide in the tmo hd2 section that explains how to save some money

How you about you don't post if you going to be useless. And thanks to the other two that answered me.

The $10 internet is for dumb phone internet. It doesn't have all the proper ports or speeds to run things like android needs.

No problem brotha
I really am confused why that thread isn't stickied in the HD2 Android forum People new to HD2 or Xda just wont know where to look...
This seems fairly complicated, I'm not sure if I can do it I'm too use to programming android lol. Now if only I can find an app for I'M and sms/mms that doesn't cost in texts.

I had a Nexus One before I got my Hd2 so I know Android pretty well and have to say it was a pretty terrible experience compared to Windows Mobile on my Hd2.
Just not worth it really. The frustration trying to get it ported correctly the first time, the lags, the freezes, the battery life problems. In my opinion I would much rather have Windows Mobile anyday on my Hd2 over Android.
If you want a way to send text messages for free you could always sign up for Google Voice. I use it on my Hd2 so I don't have to pay extra for text messaging. I just log into m.google.com/voice and it works perfect
Eh I need something that shows up right there like handcent or chomp. Anyways I am downloading froyoston sense v2.7z and the kernel links and the links for kernel modules cannot be found.
Would any of the matching ones from here work? Is this all I need is the froyostone sen file plus the image kernel and kernel module? Or do I need something else?

[REQUEST DEVS] Some things to do

mirror solution
better webtop soluction
RADIO FM solution
better root solution
CM7 build
Sense Build
MIUI Build
Touch witz Build
HTC Sensation Keyboard Port for Atrix
native mvk and others good codecs support to webtop/mediacenter/phone
Modifications on MediaCenter?!(it is possible?!)
OC kernel
if anyone remember more post here
Requesting a dev to work on something without a payout is like going to a mechanic and saying, "yeah I want my car to have 800HP, but I am not paying you for it. just do it. "
If you are wanting this done fast, get about 2 grand into a paypal and be ready to drop it for someone to work. These people do this stuff for free! Stop demanding!
When something is available then it will be posted. If you arent willing to work on it yourself, stop posting. The devs know what the community wants, they are not retarded. I really wish these posts would stop popping up.
Kthnx.
stop do this =/.....I only want do a topic with all we want ...and reegroup here when its done too simplify

90% of those requests are terrible. Why would devs waste time putting other manafacturers skins on our phone? If you want sense so bad, why the hell didn't you buy an HTC phone?

Thats the idea behind eval-'s thread. If people want to pledge money to it and a developer wants to pick it up it happens.
i requested help for a kernel without thermal throttling in Q&A because we are many with phone working at 50%...
if they help us i can buy them a coffee, no problem
There is already a touchwiz launcher floating around here somewhere so yea.

Not that I entirely disagree people shouldn't ask to much of devs, but that statement doesn't work
a mechanic would do work on your car, and it would only be your car. A dev makes something once and everyone can use it. Surely you see a difference?
If you went to a mechanic and asked him to figure out how to make all of a certain model of car have 800HP, and he had the same model car, its a but of a different situation.
That said, whatever devs dev I'm happy with, just felt the need to point out the mechanic analogy doesn't suit this.

Glad to see people still posting useless threads in the dev section
Can we get this moved to general?
You want it ? Learn to do it yourself... lots of info thats all easy to access with google. Mr. Clown please Close this useless thread
Another good thing is native mvk and others good codecs support.

Just by writing ' request devs' in the title of the thread doesn't make it a dev. thread. Patience is the key. Post things like this in general section.

[REQUEST] WP7 Port

I feel like this should be posted under development, but since I just created a new account, I am unable to post it under that particular subject. So, if one of you kind moderators are reading this, please don't delete this.
I just simply wanted to ask if there was a possibility of porting a Windows Phone 7 rom to the HTC Evo 4g. If so, then could somebody do it for me? I'm a n00b at pretty much everything except for rooting and flashing roms to phones, so I need a little help from the people that know how to do these things.
yeah give me a few minutes, I'll whip up a WP7 rom for you.
I'm pretty sure you'd be sued off the face.of the earth by msoft. Wp7 is closed source, android is open.

The only phone that has been successfully ported from WM6.1 to Android and WP7 is the HTC HD2, and that is GSM so it won't work with Sprint.

I'm sorry, I didn't know that it was closed source. I don't really pay attention much to it. I just like the UI, however I dont like that Launcher 7 has like 2 live tiles. Sorry for the trouble.

Not stupid for asking....just that the question has already been asked. Therefore you either didn't search first, or if you did, you didn't like the reasons behind why it hasn't happened yet so you optimistically created a new thread thinking that a different response would occur.

unless you know the exact memory addresses of anything sprint related, no. sure you can swap ESN's and change MIN's with a verizon device, but there is missing data that can't be changed easily. I've tried before,..
p.s. It's a felony

I do, but PRL is only 1/10th of the problem. and the EVO 4G is completely different and the memory address on that would be a different location on this phone.
I won't stop you from trying, but here you go. It's all the DFS information

Wow, I attempt to help you via PM because this conversation itself is against XDA rules, and you think I'm going to ask you for money?
And it is common knowledge, why don't you look up "samsung epic meid repair".
It would tell you exactly!
You use a standard VERIZON PRL.

Swapping esn's is against the law and therefore against xda's rules. That's why he wanted to help via pm. Word of advice, don't be an asshole and call people out like that when they are only trying to help you. :thumbup:

I obviously posted my number for a reason, I have an android device, with the ability to block numbers from texting me.
I've been here long enough to know what threads get trolled, and which do not.
I'm trying to do the same thing except I'm trying to switch to straight talk and I have a sph-d720. I need to know if there's a certain sim card I need to get from straight talk?
I've flashed one to Page Plus (a prepaid network that uses Verizon), and it works fine.
I used these instructions: http://bubhutsa.blogspot.com/2011/11/nexus-s-4g-pageplus.html
I initially had an issue getting it to activate because the esn was incorrectly printed under the battery, but customer support recommended I try the esn number in the status menu, which worked. Other than that, it wasn't all too difficult if you are comfortable modifying your phone.
You would probably be happy with a used gsm nexus s and prepaid TMobile

Hey, Im hoping i can get some help converting my Nexus 7 3g to run on a T-Mobile Data plan instead of there over priced Broadband plans, I also own a Galaxy Tab P1000 and I was able to hack it by simply removing the T-mobile Security page (Splash page). Once i accomplished that I was able to use T-Mobiles $30 plan that consist of unlimited Web (First 5gigs @ 4g speed), unlimited texting, and 100mnts of talk. it had to do with rooting my SGT7 and then downloading Root Explorer and deleting certain files, im hoping to get some answers cause i honestly dont want to pay more money and recive ALOT less options in my plan. So can anyone one PLEASE be kind enuff to assist me with this delema Im having. IM POSITIVE THERES PLENTY OF BRIGHT BULBS IN THIS HUGE FACTORY WE CALL OUR HOME (XDA).... THANKS IN ADVANCE. ILL BE HERE PATIONTLY AWAITING AN ANSWER. THANKSSSSSSSSSSSS......
