Hi,
I've got problem after updating my X10 into R2B020. I found my simtoolkit was disappeared. Oh yes, my playnow was disappeared too. Does anyone know how to get them back? Especially the sim toolkit.
Thanks.

few issues
Are u using a home replacement app? i know a couple like Panda that can hide certain apps?
if your rooted, it may just be a accidental change of one true/false value
but all i can say for sure is to REINSTALL the OS, back everything up and start again
are u using your origional rom?
Yes, I use original rom. Previously I updated the firmwire through SEUS but suddenly my sim toolkit disappeared.
I didn't use any home replacement. I had shortcut to sim toolkit in home screen but now the shortcut is not working anymore.
Any suggestion how to bring it back?

I thought you can't remove STK unless your phone is rooted. Have you tried to update into R2BA020? Mine is gone.. but I want it back since it has phone banking service.
Mine is rooted but I didnt have courage to remove it since Ive had major issues when I have removed GTalk...
Just make backup first than remove it. You may use andro to make backup. If your phone is not working Perfectly, than you can restore.
Still curious how to get sim tool kit back.

i managed to get the play now back. but the STK, sorry cant do as of now.
here is how:
1. download OI Manager apps from market
2. once install, open the apps and look for the folder called "system" then "app"
3. look for the file name called "playnowarena.apk" and "playnowarena_updater.apk" and install them.
4. Your play now should now back to your file list.
note: the STK.apk is in the folder too, but it give an error message "cannot install in this phone." so i guess there is a program or bug that SE wrote this build number and caused the STK and play now app from installing when doing the update.
Thanks for advice. But somehow it didn't work for me.
I installed IO file manager then I went to /system/apps but can't find playnowarena.stk and playnowarena_updater.stk. If I used astro, then those 2 stk are there.
I've contacted sony ericsson support regarding this issue but no respond yet.

i think you need to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list. this is where i found it.
Yes, you're right... I found it in the bottom of the list and able to restore playnow. Thanks much
So now, how to restore the sim toolkit.. *confuse*

Hi,
Some latest ROMs based on JVP, JVQ and JVR have one defict: With virtual operator there is a roaming sign, and the operation mode shows, that the phone is in roaming. Like mine I9000 in Finnish "Saunalahti".
The solution is to:
1. Put into folder "/system/etc" the file "spn-conf.xml" using your favorite method (ADB / root / etc.).
2. Reboot the phone.
Thanks, man! Solved my problem w/ Saunalahti
Any tips how to get this to work with MIUI rom? I'm also on Saunalahti and suffering from this virtual operator issue. I tried to copy that file to my /system/etc folder and reboot but the roaming sign just won't go off.
Same problem here, MIUI doesn't obey this option. I started a thread about this, so now it's just waiting
Problems also with ICS (beta1 by onecosmic) too. I can get the operator name to change, but fake_home_on part doesnt work.
Quite nice otherwise though..
Does anyone know the codes for USA TMobile?
I have a GT-I9000 international and it keeps the little R on the Operator.
Thanks!

Dunno if this helps but:
You can check out your current codes with network info II (for example)
From my i9000 running ICS RC1

Saunalahti, XXJVU-rom, roaming fixed
Thank you so much!
Updated my Samsung Galaxy S to XXJVU after some failed attempts at ICS.
Had gotten hold of some version, where my favoured Scandinavian keyboards wasn't optional either. I set the correct APN, but the "R"(roaming) wouldn't disappear.
Got internet connection when I had roaming enabled, not otherwise.
Checked my online-billing statistics from my operator, Saunalahti. Stats updates very often
and it stated I had been using my own connection for a couple of minutes,
all OK so far, but I don't want to have roaming enabled...
Transferred the file into /system/etc/ with Root Browser-app, got the phone rooted already.
Rebooted.
R disappeared, no roaming, 3G working.
Checked my statistics again. Minutes, kb:s had been ticking on my monthly flat rate.
Just as it should be.
By the way, in system/etc/ I found another file: apns-conf.xml , listing some apn-carriers,
but, in my case, mainly Asian or Brazilian, no sign of anything close to Scandinavia.
Maybe it also could be possible to replace that one with a correctly localised version?
But these spnOverrides worked for me, so I'm happy, thanks!
Just wanted to inform that CM9 now has an option to enable national roaming only. In my case (Telfort NL) it got rid of the annoying R Don't know about other ICS roms...
Also using kf1 or kb3 radios helps.

Mount as r/w.
If you are on ics, the spn-fix won't probably work.

I downloaded Mount /system (rw / ro) app and mounted system dir as r/w but it still didn't work. I made the system dir r/w from the app and also from boot. I tried transfering it with Root Browser and Astro both said either failed or access denied or something. I'm running XXJW4 and did CF-Root. Can't understand whats wrong. Is there another way to make system dir r/w or what?
Also when I browse the folders with Root Browser or Astro I find that etc folder before system dir like /etc and also inside the system dir /system/etc. The etc folder seems to have the same files inside both folders but are they the same or is it a bug or what?
Downloaded Super Manager and gave it root access and now it finally worked! it still goes for roaming for a second in boot but thats propably normal. Do still have manually configured your APN? I too have Saunalahti.

Has anyone who has Saunalahti as an operator got Oma Saunalahti app working? It worked when I had 2.3.3 stock installed but started complaining about only working on their on network when I installed XXJVU and XXJW4. Those both had the roaming problem but now that its "fixed" it still doesn't work.

Hei guys!
I first got a U8800, but there was a voltage problem with the phone and I had to return it. The store's authorized service center sent me a U8800Pro in return. The phone is shipped with Build number: U8800PV100R001C00B042, and I've never seen a ROM from Huawei listet with B042.
The problem is that I can't upgrade from Android 2.2.2 to the offical ROMs from Huawei. It just says "update failed" and a yellow warning triangle appears on the screen.
The 2.2.2 doesn't really work with my phone. Wi-fi and general performance is laggy and slow. Well, wi-fi doesn't work at all (needs 10 mins to download a 600KB file :S, but 3G works well thought").
I've been in contact with the service center but they don't really know what to do. They sent me a guide to unlock the bootloader but fastboot on the PC won't recognize the phone when in pink screen or boot loader screen. There is no "power" option in the "Settings"-menu so can't disable the fastboot option there.
I've searched every forum possible and I've got the proper USB-drivers etc etc etc
Does anybody know what to do?
Cheers
Aleksander
Send it back in maby? If something doesn't work you should be able to get a new one again if they can't fix it.

I had the same thought myself, but I don't think the phone is broken. Had to wait four months to get the U8800pro-replacement-phone so I'm postponing it for as long as I can.
Has anyone heard of the B042 ROM or at least how I can use fastboot to unlock it?
If you can't update it I'd say that's broken for me, especially if they don't know how to fix it either. And shouldn't you be able to complain on getting back another phone model than you sent in?
About the other stuff I have no idea, sorry.

I don't now if this is your case but it is nesesery upgrade first to gingerbread official 2.3 and then to ics.

I know you have to upgrade to 2.3 before 4.0, but the phone won't allow me to upgrade to 2.3, or any other ROM for that sake. Thanks though

Version .266 rooted and no success on updating to .201
Hi there,
I have a Xperia SP build number 12.1.A.0.266, with CWM installed and rooted with Doomlord kernel.
Last week I received the notification to upgrade to version 1.201.
Via Sony Companion, no deal: there comes an error message (Error 2003) after the phone reboots.
Donwloading the new version directly by the phone and installing: Phone reboots, starts CWM with and error message (unknow package / unknow signature) and even trying to run that, I receive an error message and right then a warning, that root has to be rebuild.
I rebuild it, device reboots and nothing changes.
Any help on that?

Ehehehe, not really :laugh:
I guess I couldn't make myself clear, but the phone didn't locked or got stucked on Sony Logo.
Right after I fix Root, it reboots normally and continues working.
But still then, It wont upgrade to v .201 - wheter by Sony Companion or downloading via Update Center and flashing it on Recovery mode.
Both ways lead to Errors and I'm still working on version 0.266.
I'd appreciate any further videos with instructions or a solution on that =)
Btw, I've browsed some further and found on other xda forum a Greek .ftf file with v.201 to flash.
Should that be safe in order to upgrade?

I recently accepted the D80120G OTA form T Mobile while rooted on stock recovery and naturally root broke. I couldn't reroot with stump root because the root script was still on the phone. Stump root said device was already rooted. I tried to install KDZ file to "unroot", but could not get phone to boot into download mode.
The following is a fix for rerooting your phone with stump root if it says your device is already rooted even though your root is broken.
1) Launch LG Mobile support tool
2) With phone on, plug in USB
3) Select PC Software from phone USB settings
4) Wait for LG support tool to recognize phone
5) Select "Upgrade Recovery" from options in LG support tool
6) Wait for LG Support tool to complete recovery
You shouldn't need to back up anything as it will not wipe your phone. However, better safe than sorry.
Now stump root should work with brute force method!
This worked for me! Thanks so much for the post!

Hey. I really love you for this. It worked like a charm. How you figured it out bro? The process of recovery upgrade seems to manipulate system files which enabled the rooting process to succeed.
Anyways thanks again.

FWIW, my phone was NOT recognized after installing the G2 drivers from the LG download page. I had to install the entire LG PC Suite. No idea why this worked out over against simply installing the drivers, but I thought I'd add the tidbit here in case anyone else has the same issue.
