I know that *#*#4636#*#* works for some general info on the phone, but what I would really like to do is recalibrate my touch screen. Anyway I can do that? Also, I think it would be a good idea to start gathering the list of the codes for the Evo Shift 4G. Anyone know of any other working codes?

##3282# to reset your data profile. Useful if your seeing very slow data speeds. My internet was crawling at a 150kb/s when I got the phone and now runs over 1mb/s after I did the reset.
Pick edit mode and type in your msl. Then pick data profile, push menu and hit restore.

Forgive me if this is different than what you're looking for but can't you recalibrate the screen under Menu>Language and Keyboard>Touch Input>Text Input>Calibration Tool?
#3: I didn't *think* that was what I was looking for, earlier today, but after trying it anyway, it really seems to have fine tuned the whole screen! I stumbled on to it this morning and tried it, I'm sure others will want to find a fix, someday. Thanks for posting!
#2: how does one obtain their MSL? On Windows Mobile I had a handy MSL Grabber. Is there a good one in the market?

I used MSL Reader from the market. You need root so I used z4root to get access.

Call Sprint and tell them you want it. Sometimes they'll ask why, but I have never been denied. I always tell them the truth. I like to reset and adjust things all the time. It has never failed.
Called Sprint today and asked. They said " No problem sir hold on....here is your MSL"
Thanks for the tip. Glad to know it's that easy!

I just bought a new unlocked HTC MyTouch 3G from Newegg this past President's Day weekend,
"contract free". The specs list it as having Android OS v1.5:
newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875502055&cm_re=mytouch_3g-_-75-502-055-_-Product
I intended to just use my existing T-Mobile prepaid account and just enjoy the phone using wi-fi. The problem is, I cannot log into Google using the phone b/c I don't even see wi-fi as an option. One of the big reasons I bought this phone was to use wi-fi to get my apps. I don't need 3G service.
So what can I do?
HTC MyTouch 3G unlocked (white) w/ 3.5mm jack
This phone doesn't offer the option of enabling wifi to login to your Google account during the startup. It also won't let you get into the ROM without logging in. You should be able to purchase a one-day data plan with your prepaid SIM for $2 from the activation menu to get logged in. Everything else after that you will be able to use wifi for. If, for whatever reason, you need to do a factory reset in the future, you'll have to do the same thing again.
EDIT: Secondly, I highly suggest reading through this post to learn a little bit about your phone.
there are ways around the Google sign in. just search Google I did it on my friends Droid. I think you tap the 4 corners of the screen in a certain order

That's still talking about the four corners trick which doesn't work on stock ROMs, and that's also talking about a custom ROM which a totally different ball game. If he was to root, he could simply bypass the login screen by hitting home and enable wifi, but where he's sitting at right now he'd have to use the goldcard method (which means having to borrow a friends phone running Android to make the goldcard) which is a lot more time consuming then just dropping two dollars on a day pass.
Yes, where there's a will there's a way, but in this case the way is the one I provided. Trust me, I've been heavily involved with this device for a while now (well in electronics time).

Funny thing is, once I was able to borrow a friend's SIM that has a data plan associated to it, and login to Google on the phone, the wi-fi was then available.

I used this same method and posted a revised services.jar in my RoyalGinger thread a few days ago. I believe I only heard back from one maybe two guys but it did not appear to work.
And if you read that thread you linked, most of the people who actually tried it did not ultimately have success in the end with this either.
However, I will post mine in the off chance that it might work for someone.
It seems from reading the other G2 thread that this needed to be applied BEFORE you actually got throttled for the month. (but again, it appears this may not work at all anymore...)
**THIS WILL LIKELY ONLY WORK WITH ROYALGINGER AND LATER CM7 BUILDS** because it's based on this framework.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- download the zip from this post, extract the modded services.jar & put it on your computer (in the example commands below, it assumes its in your root C:\ folder but if it's elsewhere just add on the appropriate path after the C:\ )
- reboot into recovery & connect your phone to PC via USB
- open a command prompt, terminal, etc. on your PC/mac/toilet and type:
adb shell
mount /system
exit
adb push C:\services.jar /system/framework/
adb reboot
- all done
i've never tried this before and i'm not throttled so i can't test it ... this will probably make your settings > wireless & network > mobile networks menu force close .. but with the power widgets to switch network type the only thing you wouldn't be able to change are APNs .. either way, i included a virgin/unmodded services.jar that you can repush anytime you need to get back into that menu (make sure to rename it services.jar before pushing the unmodded one back to /system/framework/)
good luck!

Sent from my UD Glacier
I know that being throttled for a supposed "unlimited" service sux, but trying to hack your way around the limit is not something I would do or agree to either. This is more of an ethical issue.
On the technical side, I would be surprised that T-Mobile network is so easily fooled by anything on the phone side. They should be able to throttle based on your unique SIM ID rather than whatever settings or APN server from your phone.
Every time you turn on your phone, they know about your SIM and IMEI number from their server, from those 2 information, they know about your phone number, your personal information, your approximate location relative to their towers and which phone you are using.
It doesn't work.
@ckisgen, Yeah I noticed that most people were unable to use this but on the rare chance this does for work someone they'll be awfully happy lol. I got tethered once when I didn't have wifi at my house, needless to say it sucked. Thanks for posting your zip, instructions, and for all the work you do in the community.

U should see paste at the top in astro hit it itll put it in the root of sdcard
Grab root explored and the edited services.jar hold it hit edit in root explorer scroll down to to move then hit back once go to system folder in the main menu find framework in the system folder youll see the old services.jar dont touch it hit paste at the bottom in root explored itll asked to to overite it hit yes and it will then exit root explored reboot your phone and your free from the throttling enjoy yay!!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I don't see how this would work. Your data usage is not tracked phone side its tracked server side by T-mobile. Just because you don't get throttled after 5GB doesn't mean that it will work all the time.

Not sure what your trying to do with ##72786# , as far as I know that's not a real code. ##3282# should bring up the ESPT menu, View or EDIT. Choose EDIT then enter your MSL. ##775# , is also valid. Just checked both on MikSHifted G, both codes work. Also just tried the Force Roam mod, all good. If you already updated your PRL / Profile. Try booting into recovery Wipe Dalvik, Wipe Cache, and then reboot.

Both sms and mms are heavily dependant on mobile data network. If you are connected to wifi and you are in a area with poor mobile data network or you don't have a mobile data plan then a lot of times you will not be able to send/receive texts or mms. If you have a mobile data plan try turning off your wifi before sending or to check for received messages.

Ok I Reflashed the MikG 1.76 and its starting to work again. No Generic Network Failure anymore. Sent mms on WiFi within seconds. No problem at all. Maybe it is the PRL. Try Reflashing the ROM completely if PRL doesn't work.
