[Q] million worth of disgrace - Focus General

4 days ago I purchased the Samsung Focus i917 1.4.
Mango update I installed last night.
I can not close 3g feature.
I can not get sms delivery report.
No file manager.
No manager, regedit.
labs.chevronwp7.com unlock the token with the money I received. but I can not upload the XAP file.
Have one will give me the reason?

Ok I hope this helps look for dualmode and r6 in yr diagnosis app forum

One more thing you have to have an app to deploy xap.

I also bought a token from Chevron labs, a couple days ago, unlocked the phone, was able to deploy XAP files, but only for 2 first uploads, then it re-locked for good, and since then cannot unlock it with chevron labs method anymore (connection issue, phone is ignoring us and crap like that). They are having a huge issue with their unlocker and shouldnt be selling anything, untill they fix it for good. Thankfully managed to unlock my Focus with different way.

i wanna cry
pay a lot and cry for basic features

I'm asking those guys for a refund. Thankfully it was only 9$, but still...

i live in turkey.
My friend brought this phone from USA. I paid $ 750.
The phone is very nice. but the most basic features of each phone, which does not exist.

This Samsung phone from AT&T rom installed.
Is it possible to find the original samsung focus i917 ROM (where? and How?)
I think the problems will be resolved at that time.

Your in the wrong forum , you need to look in :http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=606
You'll have to search alot ,but there is a 3g toggle switch theres filemanagers ,regedit ,etc , my guess is your phone isnt interop unlocked , that could be why the chevron labs thing isnt working very well , not sure if you can go back to nodo , if you can do that first and get interop unlocked , if not your gonna have to figure out how to use one of the roms out there!

yes it says is a virus,,, but should the devs check the file to see if that can unlock the phone???
I decided to risk it...it says "supported phone was not detected". Also, in the program, if you click "Check Credits", it says bad username/password. Did I do something wrong, or do we need a username/password?

it works fine for me but up to the point where it said wrong username and passwrd
That is what I used to unlock my phone because sony and at t won't allow normal unlock codes to work. Or to put it in better terms they won't give out the codes just like the I phone at t deals. But the program does work and is not a virus. I just had to deactivate my avg anti virus while using it. And even if you have the program it won't work until you purchase a one time use name and password from the un locker website. Cost is about30 usd. Don't buy the normal unlock code price. Look for other options of unlocking.

Thanks

Which option did you use? I can't get their online chat support to even acknowledge me when I click on it.......
Code is not the best way of unlocking the Sony Ericsson X10.
Many times the codes are wrong and the codes are useless when your phone is hardlocked( Too many wrong attempts)
Cable is the best and the most reliable way to unlock the desire and it is instant too.
You can see this thread for details about how the software works :
X10 Unlocking
You have to search for other unlock method within their site. I didn't have much trouble finding it but then again they sent me a direct link because I purchased a code and they emailed back that no code available at the time but other option available to unlock. With the link. Dont have that email anymore, sorry.

Htc Premium Navigation Licence (for flashing roms users)

I have been wondering, after flashing custom roms, will i have a chance to lose my premium navigation licence which perhaps i purchased or entered the voucher code which i get from the box?
To those who used the voucher or purchased, did u lose the licence or it will sync back in the licence? Where is the licence stored btw, in ur phone or on server according to imei?
And also, for the premium navigation voucher code, is it lifetime or dated?
Thanks in advance to all replies
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I recently flashed my first custom rom, wiping everything before. Didn't sync anything back, still the premium navigation is working fine (30 days test license). On the first run it will pop up the usual activation screen, so I suspect the license is saved on a server and bound to your IMEI.
I was on my 2nd 30 day trial yesterday, before my first trial expired I flashed my phone back to stock with a RUU (1.32) and I got to activate premium navigation for another 30 days, however when i upgraded locations today it removed the 2nd license
The licence is bound to you IMEI. If you ever send your phone in to htc make sure you record your imei first. If they replace the handset they will need both the old and new imei to transfer the licence.

Not everyone gets one. Its a promotional code and comes as an extra from certain carriers and resellers. Kinda like some stores will throw in a free car charge and deals along those lines.

Damn, that’s disappointing. I just flashed Revolution HD and formatted SD card and when I synced my license it changed my Navigation License expiry again, probably the DRM ID on the key must have to match the phone or something like that is stopping it. maybe just copy the time and grace values in to your current key then sync? I'm just guessing...
EDIT:
I was comparing my old phone.dat with my new one and I noticed a couple of things that might help. the first was that they have since done a version upgrade of locations and I don't know if that fixed anything, the second was after i had entered in my random values to the key, when I synced the license it reset all of the values back in my phone.dat to default but I now have 2 keys instead of one
Here is my experience. In my case my DHD came with a voucher license for one free navigation. I activate it and an email was send to my email stating tht i have one "Perpetual license" of the country i choose to my phone IMEI.
Just recently, i 'root' my phone, format my mSD so that i can create EXT3 partition and flash a custom rom. I do a full wipe for the flash. I have to download again the maps tht i need but the moment i request for navigation, the program gave me 3 options, Buy, Voucher or Sync License. I choose Sync License, and i got back my navigation for my country.
so flash custom rom to ur heart desire.... HD
I find this rather strange. When I got my phone in November the phone part in premium navigation didn't work, after a reboot it worked and has ever since. The premium navigationhas worked almost daily ever since. I've not activated or put any codes / purchased any licences. Have I missed something or am I just lucky?
Cheers
AFAIK you can onli flash sense-based ROMs like android Revolution ROM though to enjoy the htc navigation.
aggghhh, spoke too soon, it went to 30day trial today, not bad i suppose ive been using it since begining of november.
i dont think i will purchase when it runs out - having no postcode search is the deal breaker tbh
I think premium navigation doesn't reserve any paid from me. Should wait for google navigation come to my country..
Hello

sorry to dig up a old thread. I can't seem to find the option to activate 30days free license on my desire s. Im on dhd leedroid port. On stock I still couldn't activate my free trial license. I go on menu, etc license but it does nothig. Anyone, help pls!!

Hi, I have the premium key for carpanel. But after I rooted my phone, I noticed that custom ROMs are not installed with it. Is there anyway we can get the APK so I can at least activate with my own key?
i'm not asking for a crack version. just the original one so I can install it back on.
Wat if i using HTC Kindom ROM ?? I can't found any Htc Premium Navigation ><
anyone help us please!!!
Hi, apologies for reviving this thread, but was looking to put on a custom ROM to my HTC Vision, and the topic of this thread is what is holding me off until now since I paid fifty euro for my permanent premium navigation
So after reading all the posts in this thread, can I safely assume that as long as I flash a ROM which also contains Sense, I will be able to keep my premium navigation?
Thanks for your time and help guys

HTC aria 2.2.2 update review

So I decided I'd give the new official update for the HTC aria a shot despite all the talk about not being able to root it yet. So far some pretty important things I've noticed is the fact that there is no sideloading. I saw someone on here say that it would be able to sideload - incorrect. The second big thing is the fact that it does not have the touchpad button wake. You have to use the power button which is a huge flaw for me. Someone also said that it would be capable of overclocking- as far as I know right now I don't think you can, but I can't be 100% sure yet because of the lack of sideloading and the 4.99 for setcpu. Some of the cool new features I do like is the mobile hotspot capabilities, live wallpapers, and the market update. So now I want to see what others have to say about it. Please come tell me what you've found!

Did it work?
I want to understand ..
The updates are made automatically?
If I purchased from ebay the device in 3 / 3 and it had not arrived yet, am I expected to see within 2.2 and unable to root?

Did you purchase a used phone? Was it already rooted? Did the seller install the latest update from HTC/AT&T?
The 2.2 update from at&t is not an Over-the-air (OTA) update. It's offered by at&t via the HTC web site. The update, therefore, takes work on the user's part. It's not automatic.
That said, if you purchase a phone from eBay that is factory fresh from at&t, it's possible it already has the 2.2 update - I put the odds at 50%.
For what it's worth, the only thing wrong with the stock build of this device's ROM is the at&t bloatware/crapware. Other than that, it's a solid device, and there are ways to customize the phone to your liking.

don't worry about side-loading.
Use the stock HTC sync software that came with your Aria - when prompted to update, don't do it!

If it is what it looks like, (US version/AT&T branded) then you should be able to root no problem with unrevoked

I'm not sure about enabling RTL support, but I think people have been talking about it on these forums.
At first my phone felt quick when it was processing, but initial response to screen presses felt slightly laggy. I was concerned. But after running it for a few weeks now, without a task killer, it feels like quite a quick more featured phone. Seems like there was a calibration and optimization duration there. Maybe it's in my head? Very happy with the upgrade, especially for apps to SD!
Oh, and add gingerbread keyboard from the market and the phone is twice as good!

You can do side loading by using android injector. You can find it at at harmonyhollow or softpedia. Just type in Android Injector at google. It also allows you to install multiple apps at the same time.

How do you get Apps to SD to work on this rom?
In the past I was using Darktremor's a2sd preinstalled on the Liberated Aria roms.
I am now on the Liberated version of the rom (thanks to Gene Poole - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970272), but I don't know how to do apps2sd here. I have my sdcard partitioned with ext3 (512 Mb), but it's not getting used automatically.

Update 19 April

btw ATT users rejoice (update 19 April)
http://www.winrumors.com/exclusive-att-windows-phone-7-nodo-update-due-april-19
Wonder what the ATT special Features are... probably another free trial of their useless services.
yeah, it looks like they haven't heard any of us who bypassed them complaining of any problems, so they figure the beta test is complete.
I wonder if AT&T is also going to push the Samsung specific update that has been showing up on other networks.
Wondering same thing. Will we get a notification to update if we used the VPN method to update. (not the chevron)

I wouldn't be surprised if you did. I guess we wait 3 days and see. I like what I've seen of NoDo. Now onto great anticipation of MANGO! (Or most likely an in between update termed Pre-Mango)
Wish our debranded focus also get the firmware update... That's all.

Can't this «features» contain an updated Audience noise suppression chip driver?
Not worth the wait (and sooo glad I did the VPN hack update)
Apparently the ATT exclusive *features* they are adding is a WISPr protocol that switches you to login into att wifi hotspots automatically when near one. To save you (and them) data bandwidth.
The other feature is to allow you to sync your contacts with your att address book. Even lamer.
So yes ATT made you wait this long for nothing.
Lesson learned. Always rely on the fans and community for support, not the ones you have a contract with.

I had done the unbranding then got the NODO usiong the VPN method. I am on ATT. I just plugged my phon einto Zune and it shows a Samsung update is available. I am updating now. I am guessing it showed my phone was already on NODO then went on to the Samsung.

[Q] SIM unlocking a unactivated SGS2

I would just like to double check if this is possible since I have never done anything like it before and don't want to risk my money.
But I found a place (Costco) that will sell me a Bell SGS2 unactivated and not tied to any account and I wanted to make sure that I can get far enough without a Bell SIM card to root it then using WiFi install the Market app to sim unlock the phone for use on Telus.
I am pretty sure I can but just would like to make sure that nothing strange like files get generated when Bell would first activates the phone, that I would not have. I don't even have any friends with Bell sim cards to use.
they're ready to go... nothing else gets added by Bell upon activation.
Thanks I was sure but since this is going to be my first time ever unlocking a phone or even getting a phone outside of a 3 year contract pricing I wanted to be sure.
The SIM unlock isn't garenteed to work, but it took about 1min to generate the codes, and worked perfectly first time for me!

Yep I have been reading a few threads and that was my exact plan.
I just wish I could of found concrete reports of Heimdall working under Linux for the SGS2 so I wouldn't have to drive to my mom's house to use Odin on her Windows computer.

I tried searching xda and even just Google but could not find anything stating that so either my search terms are bad or I just unlucky. Either way I will take you at your word and at least try. Hopefully I wont wreck anything before a good backup and learning the differences in backup/restore compared to my Motorola Milestone.
Just wanted to thank everyone for the input, it worked out fine. I flashed cf-root with Heimdall then SIM unlocked with Galaxy_S Unlock.
Now to play with the new phone.
