Hi, guys.
First of all, please notice that this is not the typical 'Hi, I'm new, could you please explain to me what I didn't want to read in the howto?'.
I've been testing Android on Blackstone since the very first release, where nothing but the UI worked. I managed to make Movistar data work in each distro it was possible, read everything and searched everything, and the matter is this:
Movistar Spain 3G data is not working in most of the android distros. It worked in some pre-XDAndroid releases, and it worked in only one XDAndroid (January 18, I think, but I'm not sure). I'm not the only user with this problem (all Movistar users are affected) and it looks like it's an specific of Movistar.
Some times we complained about this, we were required to provide an adb logcat, but I don't know how to do it... i searched, but found myself unable to 'do that'... as far as I know, any Movistar user did it.
But would like Movistar users to tell their experience here, and try alltogether to get a solution.
Thanks,
At least you read my ADB how to.. right?

I did, but found it too diffucult, or there was something that I didn't understand. I'll try again.
Thanks.
It seems to be the same problem Vodafone NL users have. The only time 3G worked was couple of months ago, with one of TuxHero's builds by entering the apn manually in the startup.txt. With the xandroid releases no one the dutch Vodafone user has managed to make data work...
I have also tried MANY MANY MANY setups on my all the android versions i have tried and havn't been able to get Movistar Spain 3g on any of them since tux's....
It's quite frustrating.......
Anything i can do to help i am 100% willing to test!
same problem here no data with vodafone nl . so vodafone nl and the spain movistar both have the same problem
I´ve tried many setup but no works 3G
Blackroid v0.2
There are a version of Donut 1.6 (Blackroid v0.2), the 3G is ok but is very unstable

is can that version be used with the newest zlimage etc ?
I have to admit i have the same issue with Mobistar belgium.
Worked with Tuxhero's build, but none Xandroid runs 3g.

Yes, can be used. But is unstable too
when turn on the telephone, there are errors... but one of them is:
init: cannot find setupmodem.sh, setupmodem disabled
more or less...
Anybody knows this problem? perhaps is the 3G problem...
I have tested the last release (4th feb) wich has some files from nexus one that could fix data problems but still nothing...
I havn't lost hope though!!!
Keep up the amazing work!
I hope too
hmm is somone already know whye this problem is coused ?
anybody did, as far as I know. but it would be nice if an españolito could make and provide the logcat. I wasn"t able to do it...
Please mind some people have this issue with other operators in other countries.
In Belgium, Mobistar for exemple; in Netherlands vodafone ... Seems to be a proxy matter.
Read this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584559&page=114
Thanks, jeanfrederic. Find some interesting things.
First one, Movistar 3G data includes a proxy, but you can override it in winmo with no problem (well, one problem: push mail won't work). BTW, it doesn't work on xdandroid, neither trough the proxy nor without.
Second, Movistar 3G, as VodafoneNL, also worked with tux's android.
I still think that It's something not related to the zimage, but the android itself.
Héééééééééééééééééééééééy, I can now connect to 3G with the new Mcdull build http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622776

Wonderful! Let's give it a try
Hello -
I just bought an unused t-mobile HTC Hero.
I unlocked it for use on vodaphone.
Everything works fine except that I cannot use the mobile network - although it is apparently enabled in the phone, any attempt to access internet etc fails, saying "this application requires network access".
NB: access is fine using wi-fi.
Support at vodafone suggested a rom upgrade. ROM Download refused by HTC website (upgrade n/a for my phone's S/N, it said)
are the two issues related and how should I resolve them???
S/N (HT98SL903000)
build number: 1.76.110.6146733 CL47212 release keys.
many thanks,
alex
Have you checked the APN settings?
Regards,
Dave
Search for the vodafone ROM on the XDA-DEV Hero Wiki. Or google...
Or, just check youve got vodafones APN settings and not t-mobiles (like foxmeister said)

Thanks for that.
I will follow all of the suggestions.
One point though _ If it needs rom as well as correction of APN - is it worth considering a custom rom instead of getting tangled with vodafone?

Vodafone don't carry the Hero, so there is no Vodafone specific ROM for the Hero.
You've got a T-Mobile branded device with a 1.76 build on it, so my advice would be a MoDaCo ROM, or if you don't want a custom ROM, a generic HTC ROM. If you upgrade to the latest T-Mobile ROM, you'll end up with the "perfect" SPL meaning you'd have to downgrade via a goldcard before you could replace the ROM with something non-T-Mobile.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks again.
I now have internet access having sorted the APN. Much happier now (I got anxious cos the phone I bought in a box from another phone -- bearing the wrong serial number, IMEI etc )
but I'm attracted to the ROM change.
Is there a particular MoDaCo ROm that i should go for that wil allow the usual apps to be run alongside some level of compatibility with outlook and MS word etc?
cheers,
Alex

Well, head to http://hero.modaco.com and have a look. There will be a full version (3.1 IIRC) available free, and a beta of the next one (3.2beta5 IIRC) for paid members.
Try the free one, and if you like it, you might like to donate to Paul to keep him going. Also, that will get you access to his 'kitchen' to make your own custom ROM from the modaco base, but adding and removing things you don't want etc.
But there's really only 1 modaco custom rom (aka MCR), just make sure you get the right one (GSM/CDMA) so GSM for you I reckon.
This rom is made by ATX team, so all credits goes to them.
This rom is still in beta for 8800 pro, so expect bugs.
4.0.4 android 404029 baseband; 3.0.8-perf kernel
Pros:
1. Lag free
2. Superb camera quality (i never knew, that our phone is capable of this, i can record HD video on 30fps, without any fps drop, unless entering from dark to light), panorama also works
3. Integrated root manager
4. Mobile data counter on taskbar
5. Themes working
Cons:
1. 3g doesnt work for me
2. First start in Chineese
Download here:
pan.baidu.com
(Just dont forget to select our phone model when downloading)
Official thread here:
bbs.anzhi.com
I do not give any support for this rom, because i did not make it, im just sharing. There will be no flashing instructions, because if dont know how to do it, skip this thread.
Right now im testing lite version of this rom, if it works good, ill post link to it either.
Can you upload it somewhere else?
Sent from my U8800Pro using xda app-developers app
Beautiful and functional and stable. But someone please fix data problem.
best ics rom
fm radio, no bugs, perfect working on huawei 8800-51
This ROM heavily lags on my PRO after installing 40 plus apps otherwise it's a good one. Does it lag on yours also?

You need to set up your apns, it is carrier specific.
You will need to contact your carrier and ask them for the APN.

Hello everyone,
I've recently been trying to update firefox OS on my ZTE Open (quite a pain in the a** actually) and then realized that I bought a US ZTE Open.
I'm currently in Canada, so it didn't bother me at first, I just needed it as an alarm clock, agenda, well, as a smartphone, the sms/calling removed.
But I'm a french student, and I will have to get back home in a few month, so my question is that simple :
Is there a way for me to make my phone available to my career (Free), or will I have to buy another phone ?
In the second case, which firefox OS phone do you recommand me ?
Thanks in advance for your help !
EDIT : For example, may I install CWM to install the UK version of Firefox OS, or is the career limitation a hardware one ?

2G will work normally, but you can't use this phone with 3G in France (Europe).
And yes, you can change to UK software via CWM recovery, but still 3G frequencies won't work in Europe because of the hardware.

Thread Moved to General
Just so you're aware, I've moved this thread from Q&A over to General as it's more suited over here and won't fall down the list so quickly. It would keep getting completely buried in Q&A due to all the threads being created

I am not experienced so muchg with bricks unfortunately. Seems to be hard brick from what you said. Can you take it to AU shop? or are you outside Japan?
Try to look for info about normal (non-japanese) HTC One brick problems - they are 99% same phones - so it might help
Hi people. Nice to see some information about this phone.
@umka83
What ROM did you use from the list in your first post? Can you confirm, that sd-card working.

I like most the latest 4.4 Beta ROM with 6.0 Sense, but I am using 4.2 right now because i need saifu keitai and some other japanese features that have bugs.
As soon as I go home from Japan , i will be using latest beta...

Hi. I am now visiting relatives in Japan, and was thinking of changing my old Samsung Nexus S...
I like the quality of service here, and I guess I can buy a used keitai with much confidence.
So I was thinking about this one,as I can find it here for about 25.000 yens, but I am wondering if I will be able to use it normally abroad, with almost all the features.
For example, can you run the 4.2 rom in english ? is it convenient ? One-seg feature is exclusively for japan I guess, right ?
If you think there is another high quality phone that can be bought here, please advise :fingers-crossed:
Thanks.

hello,
I have this phone HTC J One (htll 22) and I use it everywhere in Europe witout problem. To answer your questions:
1) You can Run 4.2 Rom in English, French, German, Ukrainian and many other languages. You can swith to English easily via Menu>Language and Locale > English, to swith to other languages, you need MoreLocale app and root.
2) One-seg is Japan only. No other country has this type of waves.
3) You can wait for Samsung Galaxy s5 which is coming in 3-4 month (it will be quite expensive at first). Otherwise, i beleive HTC J One is the best phone on Japanese market right now. Maybe Nexus is worth a look.
4) Yes, you can buy a used phone from Yahoo auctions for about 25000 or you can buy from http://www.Zenmarket.jp, even if you are abroad. Also, I have a slightly used rooted and sim-unlocked spare phone (PM me if you are interested)
5) to use the phone abroad, you need S-OFF, Root, and Sim-unlock. it is a pain, but it can be done if you are familiar with ADB and other stuff.
6) Is it convenient? I did not like the BlinkFeed thing. So I installed another launcher. Otherwise, it is a great, durable, very good looking phone. I am not going to change it for now.
HTL22 Sim Card Not Detected
I have HTL22 (HTC J ONE) and I've followed this forum to unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, install custom mods, S-Off and all, but I've had problem with phone not detecting a sim card.
I've tried many custom roms, and none have worked and i even bought a sim unlock code from one of the websites, however I couldn't figure out how to put that in as the roms do not ask me to enter a code.
Any kind of help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Are you in Japan? Did you buy your phone from auctions?
if answer to both questions is yes - you might be a victim of IMEI - lock by AU. This happense when the first owner of the phone is not paying for the phone, and thus phone becomes locked.
Your phone will work ust fine outside of Japan, but in Japan IMEI number is blacklisted. Changig IMEI in Japan is legal (unlike in many countries) but there is no easy way to change it. And it is not allowed to discuss methods for changing IMEI on this board
How to root HBOOT 1.54

wow.. this is news to me.. i was planning to buy HTL22 or Sc-01F from Amazon.. After reading abt IMEI lock, i am rethinking again..
how can anyone know beforehand if the phone is IMEI locked or not??
1) ask the seller what is IMEI number. If they do not give you the number, most likely it is blocked already
2) when you have the number go to
https://au-cs0.kddi.com/FtHome
http://nw-restriction.nttdocomo.co.jp/search.php
https://ct11.my.softbank.jp/WBF/icv...tmctr=(not provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=79683988
3) input your IMEI in the search field and clik on CHECK (KAKUNIN)
4) if the result is ○ then no problem, if the result is △ There is a possiblility the phone will be blocked if the user stops paying the fees, and if the result is × - the phone is already blocked.
No news for 1.54 hboot? Im on Mexico and ther would be a lot of problems with duties to send and receive feom Japan.
