where did u get the activation code from? and how did u get it?

For the 3G access - did you run the necessary connection setup steps?

Unbricked my phone, now i cant activate it

i Unbricked my phone using this method (http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/Unbrick), now i cant activate it because i dont see the option to skip the login to google and i cant activate my wi-fi either without it.
T-mobile want me to sign a contract for 2 years to add a G3 feature to my corrent plan.
What can i do to have the option back to skip the login to google part so i can activate my fi-wi?
Please i really need help, i been without a phone for 3 days already =(
If you just proceed with the setup it will notice that you have no phone network so it will then ask on the next screen to provide a wifi spot which is where you can log onto your router.
That wasn't a bricked phone.

My thoughts as well.
You have a couple of options:
1) Use a prepaid tmo sim w/ data, or get an unlock code and use another SIM w/ data a data plan on it (that will require the APN for that carrier)
2) Set up adb and follow this guide, it will let you choose an access point to connect to.

If you've ever installed RC29 you'll know that it wont let you connect to an AP, it will only use cellular data.

No internet access while in call

Ive just noticed that whenever i am in a call i loose internet connection, even on the phone itself. I first noticed a few weeks ago that it happend when tethered to my pc, but today i tried to go on the internet on the phone itself while in a call, no go doesnt work.
Ive also noticed that when i recieve an mms that if im connected to the internet it tells me that to recieve an mms it has to close the current connection.
whats the deal? on my last phone (g1) i never had this problem, connected to the internet 24/7 and would be able to access the net while in call and recieve/send mms withouth having to close internet.
Ive tried several roms, happens with the stock radio aswell. Im running a us radio at the moment with 576mb ram patch
Network limitations. You have to have a 3G connection. That's why AT&T, in those ads, tout that you can surf the web and talk on the phone at the same time when compared to Verizon. If you do have a 3G connection, though, then that's a good question.
Im on the same network as when i had the tmobile g1, same price plan. Right now my phone says im connected to hsdpa but if i get a phone call, ill not be able to use the internet while in call.,
strange.
I want to change back to a UK radio, trouble is, i run linux and dont have access to a windows machine that i can setup activesync on.
it depends on the chef that makes the rom... i had somthg similar with previous versions of OzROMs... now that is solved... just tell that to the chef that made your rom...
if on 3G you should have phone and date in the same time... on edge/gprs.. not....

you dont need a pc to change radio, you can flash it from sd just as you would flash a cooked rom. Rename the Radio to LEOIMG.nbh and place it on the root folder of your sd. Then you reboot your phone and keep the volume down button pressed to enter the bootloader which will see the rom and ask if it shall begin flash. here you press the power button and it gets flashed. Now that wasnt so hard now was it?
thanks ill flash back the a uk radio and see if that helsp. the only reply i got in the energy rom thread was saying that its standard wiith the hd2
flashed 20.10.50.08_2 radio and im now able to access internet while in a call

[Q] No Data connections via Phone in Android

Hi:
I am using AmeriCanAndroid AOSPHD2GB232CM7RC1|bkup2sdext234[KERNEL:AmCanAndroid r2.21] and just about everything works perfectly.
The only issue I seem to have is in Android, I cannot use the mobile phone to get internet. The Phone sends and receives call perfectly, but if I want to use Market or the browser, I get the error:
A NETWORK ERROR HAS OCCURED. rETRY OR cANCEL AND RETURN TO PREVIOUS SCREEN.
I think I have tried every combination of settings in the wireless section. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Chaz
the only known temp(!) fix is to restart ur phone , given ur settings are correct it should work for a while .... have you been switching data on/off a few times? thats when it happens to me ....
be sure to report this problem to rom cooker so it gets fixed faster ...
When you say restart, do you mean restart android? I don't think I have ever been connected, unless there was WIFI in the area.
I use this ROM without these problems.
Try to check the apn and the DNS. Have a look at the faq.

And : there is a TMobile US and a standard version.
Do you use the right one?

i have the same problem but im using HD2Froyo_V2.1.7z.
everything works perfectly fine except for my data connection.
the only way i can use the internet is via wifi
No data connection
Yes I also has the same problem. Please let me know if you find a solution. Wifi works fine on my HD2 after flashing to Anroid 2.2 Bur no data connection through phone connection.
Thanks,
Mathew
No Data connection
I am have the same problem on my phone also. Have the T-Mobile phone using the ATT system. Have tried several different roms and still cannot get a Data connection. A lot of us need some help please. If anyone can shed light on this, please let us know.
call t-mobile
i called t-mobile and told them, i could only connect to the internet via wifi. i pay for data and i cant connect unless its through wifi. DO NOT mention that you flashed your phone, put a different ROM or Android.
After doing this my internet started to work again
hopes this helps
do you set your APN?
May I ask what you told TMO?
I read in an older post that you may have to switch from smartphone data plan to android data plan to connect to the internet, does anyone have any idea about this??
I also am curious if my build is synonymous with failed data connection... as well as (not related item) battery sucking....???or any other know issues as I seem to misplaced the page I downloaded it from...

[Q] Need some directions...

I just got my new unlocked HTC My touch 3g phone from J and R store...I put a SIM card from T-mobile from other cell phone in (prepay w/o data plan) and tried to test new device.
I cannot find a way pass first screen where I need to log in my Goggle account...it gives me a message that the SIM card does not have data plan...I thought that I will be able to get in the WI-FI menu to access the internet thru my home wireless connection and log it in that way..but no success.
My original intention was to have a phone with SIM w/o data plan and then use WI-FI for installing Apps, Games etc etc...Is that possible?...
I know that the answer is somewhere buried within these posts but I need to fix this fast ( my wife is all over me about phone not working)...if someone can give me some hints/links to the posts that can help me out I would really appreciated
Regards

Not trying to troll but this has been answered hundreds of times, mostly in threads just like this one. You cannot bypass the sign in screen on any stock myTouch/Magic ROM, only on most custom ones. If you press the menu button at the login screen, there should be an option to purchase a data day pass for $2. Do that to get in the phone, then root it and install a custom ROM so you don't have to worry about it later.

Thanks for help....I did resolve the issue....There wasn't an option to pay for data plan pass for day ( at least I did not see it in my 50+/- attempts to pass by the first screen)...what I did I went to T-mobile store and very nice young guy there helped me with store test SIM with data plan...it took 15 minutes to set up Google account and passwords etc etc and after that I put in my old prepaid SIM without data plan and phone worked like a charm. All phone functions worked and WI-FI capability allowed me to go online thru my home wireless network and to download several apps from market and to update OS to Android 2.21...etc etc

I would still root and install a new ROM. If you ever have to do a factory reset you'll have to sign in again. If you flash a new ROM, most add a "Skip" option to the login menu.

I did not know that...thanks for the hint.
I may consider it.
The only question is which ROM variant to install...

i would suggest that you try Gingerbread ROMS

[Q] No Internet Sharing after traveling

So, I have a Verizon Wireless Trophy. I was thrilled to finally be able to use Internet Sharing, and I had it working fine. Then I travelled internationally and was using my Trophy on another carrier with a local SIM card. After returning home, I am no longer able to use Internet Sharing. As soon as I try to enable it, I get this error: Connection not shared - There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again. Yet my data connection is working fine. My guess is that the Connection Setup app messed something up?
I did contact HTC support, they basically said that they are aware of the issue but have no further information to give me.
Anyone else experience this? Any workarounds?
Many thanks,
I. Kinal

Are you using it on Verizon Wireless? If so, you need to have an official Internet Sharing package, or read my first post in my custom rom for instructions on bypassing it. This works even with the official SparkW (VZW) Trophy rom.
I'm assuming you are using the stock rom.
Yes, I am on Verizon with a Share Everything plan - like I said, everything was working fine before I left the US.
Yes, I am using the stock ROM.

Yeah, just try the PST modification. It's easy to do and it should make wifi hot spot work, assuming you have a data connection. I too, used to be able to use tethering with or without the dun mod, but since Verizon added the internet sharing package to their website, I must do the bypass.
Unfortunately, that did not work - had no effect.
I should add that that trick is how I got Internet Sharing working in the first place, despite the fact that I have a Share Everything plan.

Are you running Tango update (OS Version 8773)? If you used interop unlock to enable it in Mango v1, then the newest driver changes the method in which it works (I doubt you used interop unlock to enable it at all).
Do you have any data access on the phone at all? Can you load websites? If you can't, you need to open up Connection Setup and re-select Verizon Wireless even if you've already done it once, and that should reset the data connection (conversely, if you have data and select it, data will disappear).
Yes, my OS Version is 8773.
This phone has never been interop unlocked.
Data works just fine.

Same issue with me - Internet Sharing worked fine, but after using SIM card with international operator and trying to use Internet Sharing on Verizon I get the same message: "Connection not shared - There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again." Data service works fine by itself but not ICS. Any solutions?
