Adventures in trying to get Phone calls

So, after having the tab for a day and a half, was getting twitchy on making phone calls.
I want that Phone icon on the screen!
So, after rooting (uber easy actually, z4root works a treat), got adbWireless to enable me to connect and got a shell.
Bit of juggling, mounting the /system and pushing in the Phone.apk's.
I've tried a whole bunch of Phone.apk's from anywhere I can find them basically, and still no joy as of yet.
In fact, getting a few errors now in a few places (PhoneInfo and TabletInformation errors).
Makes sense it's not trivial as we'd have seen something already probably.
And don't know if it's the phone.apk or the radio being used that's set to block.
How's everyone else getting on?

Thanks a lot for posting... I am anxious to see if we can do this... a friend of mine thought this would be a simple "install the phone apk" but we found that didn't work on Wednesday.
The only other one I've seen who's trying (publicly maybe?) is jdmadonna who posted his results over in the Tab Themes and Apps forum today that he rooted with z4root, then installed the phone.apk as you did, then the Tab started vibrating every few seconds and showed the message android phone has stopped working. When he rebooted, everything locked up apparently... he said he lost the network provider and baseband and could not bring them back, so he returned the tab. He had been looking for the Euro phone.apk, so I'm not sure if that's what he used here...
Guess it will not be as easy as we had hoped.... hopefully this nut can be cracked somehow.
Adding insult to injury is the Samsung T-Mobile user manual for the Tab which refers to it as a phone throughout! However, the pretty much useless pamphlet that T-Mo provides call it a "device."
Wish someone from Samsung would anonymously step in and help us out. The t-mo salesman I worked with (who was very helpful wrt to possibly using it as a phone) said he'd heard that some folks were/are? threatening a class-action lawsuit against the carriers... obviously a money maker for the lawyers... but I don't care... if it'd make them let us use it as a phone, that'd be fine with me.

Couldn't the carrier block phone access for the device by the IMEI number? Then it wouldn't matter what the user did, the tablet would never be able to make a call.

Here's what guyverunit had to say in this thread at post no. 52:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=832643&page=6
Someone else reported this too... when you press activate on the Verizon phones at the start, they MAKE CALLS OUT.... this is what he said:
"so knowing that Verizon was selling there version at Best Buy i popped in there today to check it out, see if there plans or anything were better. they had just taken it out of the box and were setting it up. i went to work and on my lunch went back. they had the display set up so i played with it. it was still at the activation screen, i pressed activate and behold it dialed out to do the activation. even had a phone icon in the top bar.
so i talked to the best buy mobile manager there and ask if they had gotten it passed the activation he said no but he would try again. he tried and it dialed out. i said oh so it can make calls, he said yes its just not put into the software to do it for the user end but yes, it can make calls. he also said he gives it two weeks till the DEV community hack it to do just that. LOL"
The t-mo phones do not make phone calls to activate... at least mine didn't... the sales guy activated it by using the bar code and the computer and no "activate screen" came up at all... went straight to browser.
Don't know if that means the phones themselves are different... or if Verizon just kept the Euro phone activation approach...
Maybe the Verizon phones would be the best ones to work with?

One of the Phone.apk' did that for me too. The Phone.apk I'm using now has stopped showing me the connection in the top bar, so looks like that's related to that as well, but at least it's not crashing like it was.
I should really reflash back to base (is that possible atm?) and see what's doable.
I'm still holding on for a euro rom that's flashable to enable everything.

Do you think the Euro rom will work with US hardware, or should they be identical?
I was curious about Paten's question re the IMEI no. possibly being blocked and did a little searching...
I found a freelance programmer's site... codepainters blog....
http://codepainters.wordpress.com/2009/12/11/android-imei-number-and-the-emulator/
and in the course of saying how to change the IMEI number, he says this at the beginning:
"Anyway, code analysis shows that IMEI/IMSI request goes down through all the telephony layers (see the diagram), eventually getting to the baseband device."
I find this interesting because jdmadonna and you describe the phone.apk causing problems down to the baseband level... as did you...
Obviously, IANAAD (I am not an Android developer - my programming days are way in the past)... so maybe there are myriad other things that can cause a problem down to the baseband level...
Maybe it's just as simple as unblocking the ISEI no. as Paten suggests...
I'm also hopeful about the Euro flash, but am not brave enough (nor do I know how) to do it!

You guys are using a different SIM from the one you received with your Tab right? (if you got it on a plan). One that you know voice calling works on?
In Australia, the Tab does not have voice disabled, but they force you (for the initial launch) to sign up for a data only plan. The SIM you get on this plan is blocked for voice, but works for 3G and even sending SMSs.
You just might want to make sure that the SIM you have in actually works for voice in case you DO get it working from a software perspective, but it is just the SIM that is stopping the call.

Aye, swapped the sim over from my other phone (though the PAYG sim I got actually did support voice/data apparently, but I didn't want to risk it so took a known working sim)
Phone.apk
Radio stuff
imei
Don't know. Could be any of them, or combo of 2 or more even.
It's really crazy. I appreciate they probably want to keep it simple as a tablet device, but they're missing out on revenue. "Want to use voice? that's available for another 10 bucks and/or a different(more expensive) sim"
Keeps it working for people who just want a tab, and gets more cash from people who want to dump their phone.
Think it's telling that ALL the telco's are limiting the voice as if anyone of them broke ranks and offered voice, they'd all have to.
Guess we'll see which Telco chickens out first!
/sigh

Re the SIM card... the holder mine came in does say data only, but the tmo rep said it could still handle voice.. seemed odd to me... since jyveafk has tried switching it, guess I'll wait to see if a solution turns up... or the tab is going back and I'm not getting a new phone when my contract's out in protest!

If you had followed your own advice (search and engage brain ), you would realize that they are talking about US Tabs, as the phone function has been disabled on these.
Euro Tabs have phone functionality as standard and the Yanks already know this so your post came over as a little sarcastic!

Any chance you can adb pull the Phone.apk from your Tab please?
I've been using the Galaxy phone .apk's, not another Tab's Phone that's known to work. Perhaps this is the issue.
Can you pull it and post it please?
(plus, what country/provider are you on?)

alright guys. im gonna take the plundge. i noticed a dead pixel on my tab so its going back to tmobile for a replacement. i thought i would try the euro firmware before returning it. so guys, need your help! which firmware should i flash and whats the procedure for it. links would be helpful.
the firmwares are here, i dunno which one to flash tho.

wanting to buy ... scared of JM6

Quick question to all.
I maybe in the market for a new galaxy tab... just cause its so nice.
however i am afraid i may run into one with the new firmware JM6
on the about page what do you check for so its not JM6 or will it just say it?
Thanks!

I dont think any SGT would ship with JM6 on it. Correct me if i'm wrong.
JM6 is a test firmware as far as i am know and only people who have manually flashed that firmware onto a Tab would have it.

Thanks, Guys!
I am very eager to switch out my SonyEricsson X10i for a galaxy tab. the tab will be for $775.
I do currently have a SGS for the wife at home and she / i love it. so now i want to add the SGT to the family and get rid of the X10i.
Any feedback?
on a side note i am not seeing the SGT forums as populated as well as the SGS forums.
Thanks

If you love the SGS you'll love the Tab. I'm lucky enough to have both and think they are a perfect pair! My wife got hold of the Tab last night and was so impressed with it that I almost had to pry it away from her to get it back to play Angry Birds!!
I agree about the JM6 firmware, no one has reported it on new OOB Tabs yet so it looks like it's still pre-release. The JM series ROMs seem to be far smoother and faster than the current production ROMS so I guess we'll all get stuck with these signed boot loaders at some point as official updates. Once all providers start releasing updates with the protected code it won't really matter whether you have them anyway as ROM cookers should just be able to base their custom ROMs on a signed kernel and carry on as normal.
I guess there aren't as many ppl posting in the Tab forums as the SGS forums yet as the Tabs are expensive luxury items still compared to the SGS which (in the UK anyway) you get free with a mobile contract. I have no doubt that the Tab forums will get more popular as time goes on.

[Q] Will Moto Xoom be flashable

Does anyone know if the Moto xoom will be flashable to boost mobile or metro or cricket like how the samsung tab is

Great question. I don't know the answer but the question is can any Verizon 3G work on Sprint/Metro(same company). You don't want Cricket. My quick look makes me think the odd's aren't great. But I think the EVO was fully ported to MetroPCS.. so maybe.

I don't think a verizon phone can work on sprint and vice versa. If metro works on sprints networks then a sprint phone could be flashed to work on it. It has to do with the wireless technology in the device. Plus, even if it was the same, I doubt sprint would activate it.
Sent from my EVO using XDA App

I doubt it honestly

My research showed that in some markets Metro has a program in place for reprogramming Sprint and Verizon phones for use on their network. However, I suspect they won't do it for a product like the XOOM.
I hope that someone figures it out. I am partially hopeful, I just bought a 11,000mAh battery for my EVO so that I can tether for hours at a time. Testing it right now with everything turned on, streaming tversity video to the phone for hours and barely drained the external 30%.

I'm honestly fairly ignorant on the matter so if I sound stupid give me a pass..
But..
If the hardware could do it, isn't it 'just' a matter of which 'radio firmware' is being used? (with regards to porting to a different carrier)

Motorola Xoom
Hey everyone, hows it going. First I would like to thank everyone here for all your hard work on these new android devices and helping people like me figure out problems to how to get these devices working.
I just got back from the store where I picked up the new motorola xoom. I've noticed that its on verizons service, but would like to know if anyone can point me to the proper direction as to how I can get this device working on crickets network.
I have a droid x, droid 3 all working on cricket data, mms and all working. next task is to get this xoom working on crickets data... any idea's as to where I can start off...
I'm not finding any informaiton about this device at all for flashing. I found someone who claims that they can root there xoom, ... its a start, but not really wanting to do that without consulting the professionals first.
please note that this is not my first go around with custom roms or rooted gingerbread roms. also please note that I'm aware this rom is the hunnycomb rom.
any help is much appreciated .... sorry about the spelling and thanks for all your help in advanced.

If by the new Xoom you mean the XYboard, it is not yet rootable. The original Xoom is rootable and has a number of awesome roms and overclocking kernels. Take a look around the forum and you will see many wonderful things. I'm sorry that I can't help you with getting your Xoom to run on the cricket network...

I must have the original then, I just got finished rooting the xoom. I do have a Sim slot that has a clear card in in, just in front of the microSD slot that says "replace with 4G card after system update"
So seeing as how I got this tablet rooted.... lets see if I can get it working with data, .... any help is appreciated

New to the SGT world, lemme tell you what NOT to do if you got a Sprint SGT.

So i am a experience user with XDA for many years. I had a T-Mobile MDA, ATT Tilt, ATT Touch Pro 2, T-Mobile HD2, Sprint Evo...you get the idea. I went from WinMO 5.x to 6.x then to Android..blah blah blah...
Basically i thought i was bad ass, well i am not. I read and read and read then read some more. Found a SGT Sprint version for sale on craigslist for $120 plus a working phone trade. Gave him my old touch pro and $80 and i had a SGT with a 16gb card. Score, no need for 4g since i had tmobile.
I built up courage and flashed it. Did not know what the hell is a kernal. Found that out later. Found out that you flash roms onto the Sprint SGT you will loose GPS and or auto rotate functions. The Sprint SGT is a little different than the verizon version.
So i gave up flashing and went on the hunt to "fix" my SGT. Sprint stores are tools. They ask you 10000000000000 and then do nothing. They say they cant fix it. You need to get a new one exchanged out. BS. I called the 800 number on the back of the SGT and found out that my inservice date was Feb 11,2011 and i have almost 10 more months of warranty .YEAH.
Sent it to Samsung in texas takes them 6 working days to reflash the tab and get it packaged back out to me. Turn around time is about 2 1/2 weeks, shipping takes 3 business days each way.
Now i am not flashing roms or kernals. Although the roms were alot faster than stock and did more stuff, but i did loose GPS that is NOT reflashable at this point. Auto rotate on the other hand can be restored.
CLIFF NOTES: Dont flash roms onto your Sprint SGT if you value your GPS. It will take you 2-3 weeks to get it back from Samsung in Texas to reload the firmware.
WILL YOU DO IT AGAIN: Yes, when i know GPS will not be lost flash addict!!

Just don't flash a rom with a modem file and you're fine. The modem is out now for us to restore anyway.

oh i beg to differ my friend. those modem files dont work. tried everything and then some. from my experience.......i did the E24 flash, then OTA to E28. did the samsung flasher tool, hendall, odin, ect... modem.bins from everywhere i can find. figured how to load the drivers when i plugged into the pc. i spent hours doing it, then days, then sleepless nights, then falling asleep at the PC waiting it to flash. no gps resorted back to sending it to samsung. almost got desperate and wanted to bribe a sprint employee to swap it out for me....i have my limits hehehe....i get it back on monday per UPS

I have my Sprint tab and I have my GPS working after dozens of flashing.
I even installed Honeycomb for testing and returned back to Froyo.
You need a stock ROM and a modem.bin that manage both the cell connection and GPS.
I use for myself the DJ30 ROM with no GPS and the EA24 modem.bin
I use Odin to flash them, first the ROM and after that the modem, works flawlessly

i was an evo user and saw how many people claimed to want to donate for aosp wimax.. and many did.. but many didnt. lots of empty promises. i know this thread will reach nowhere near that scale as what im asking for isnt even important to 98% of users.. but just saying.
i get how a lot of these bounty threads end up being bad news.. i just dont know how else to get this done. im not a dev.. just a cdma enthusiast. i've tried dumping the phone via various tools(cdma ws, qpst, etc) which only leads to the phone rebooting, so i assume im hitting unreadable addresses... ive backed up every parition(that i know of) on the phone and sifted thru hex to find reference to the wimax. i found mention of the wifi and bt mac addresses but no wimax reference. ive blindly added the epic 4g framework and wimax apks hoping it'll "just work". i've extracted every file off the phone that references wimax.. but nothing that references exact settings. i've been an active poster in every single wimax thread to do with the nexus. ive been active on freenode since the day i've gotten my phone looking for others interested. i've gone thru every method i could think of. offering $$ is my last hope. ive tried to do this myself.. im hoping someone can pick up where i've left off.

I'm working in my rom release, word bounty picks my ears up lol but I rather get the update out to those waiting first. If you still need n me to look at it after, I might be able to see. I really wanted to get the 4g quick panel toggle in place first but we shall see

thank you for your interest i'll be sure to keep you posted. there's not much wimax development in the States.. we're some of the few that can take advantage of the hardware.. i'd love to see it not go to waste!!

well my goal is to get far more than just the toggle to work.. but i feel that anyone diving into the wimax code to get my bounty sorted will figure out how to get the toggle to work as well
see this thread for info about the nexus toggle issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15320672
seems the devs cant figure out the correct call functions.. tho maybe its more than that.
oh.. and to anyone that wants a quick wimax on/off. just use an app like anycut(or any shortcut app) to make a wimax 4g settings shortcut on your main screen. its not pretty.. but its much faster than going thru the settings each time.

The closest I came to getting the toggle to work systemui booted just fine, the toggle didn't activate the wifi antenna but when I did in settings the toggle showed the change. Know what sucks, that zip was on my sd, and I hard reset so I lost the secret recipe.

Maybe you can start a pledge section too to sweeten the pot. The pledges are promises made in this thread that people that will donate to the winning developer (that the OP is not responsible for...) Of course, all the dev has is the word of the poster....
Thank you for starting this thread.

I'll definitely vouch for autoprime. Helped me out a lot on some other issues. Very patient.
