I think my phone has spyware! - General Questions and Answers

Hi!
I have a HTC HD2. I was recently busted by the cops for some illegal drugs.
I was in arrest 3 days, and when I recived the phone it was fully charged! So I know they have been synced it and used it to find evidence. But I have quite more batterydrain than before(I belive. Maby I am paranoid?), so I am worried that they have installed a wire tapping program or something on it.
This is in Norway.
Is there any way to find out?
Can I hard reset the device and be sure that the syware is gone, or do I need to flash another ROM?
Thank you for answears!

akilles_, dude, no spyware is needed to track your calls and to track your current position Didn't you see any MOB movies? Use the street public phones to find the dope! Your mobile is like an opened book (and not only yours)
So I know they have been synced it and used it to find evidence.

So what's the problem - open ActiveSync on device and check partnership. Thus you will know that for sure....

this thread deserves an lol.

Lol.
Just get another sim card and move to Amsterdam.

you're stoned man. LOL!
a hard-reset will do and get some sleep.

Either he's pulling someone's leg or the lining from his nose to his brain has been damaged by cocaine. . .

Not only do a hard reset, but get a new phone number & sim card!

I know that they lisening on my calls and sms from before. they have done that in almost a year. I also know they dont need spyware to do that.
But to use my phone as a mic in a room and lisening to my conversation to others in the room, I belive they need spyware. Thats why I ask.
sorry for crappy english writing. But U all know that dealers dont get education!

Dude, nevermind the language
Read this http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_hd2_leo_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html
and perform hard reset.....
And better buy pre-payed sim and a new phone 'cause your IMEI is anyway traced by them through the provider's equipment
And - find yourself another business. Otherwise sooner or later you are in deep ****.

You need to get off meth your over the top paranoid. Take the plea bargain.

unless your dealing in millions or dollars worth of drugs i very much doubt the police are gonna spend 1000's monitoring your phone or making it into a listening device by using the mic to listen to your conversations ( it might happen in movies but the practicalities of doing it is different).
reset your phone , get a new sim and lay off the weed

Why we all discussing this and why havent the mods shut it? this guy wudnt know how to deal a deck of cards nevamind drugs and if he was (unless he's an idiot) he wudnt be shouting about it on the internet lol

quickgps?

hey guys, just started working at att and i requested the tilt as my company phone. well i got it yesterday, but i am completely pda/smartphone illiterate..
and i have been skimming over this forum but it minus well have been written in chinese...
so i read that quick gps is already loaded on the phone? i went through file explorer and couldn't find it anywhere... did i over look it?
also, the phone seems really laggy... from the screen switching from potrait to landscape... and there seems to be alot of lag in pressing the numbers on the touchscreen.
i've seen all the rom flashes and such... but is there a dummy guide to flashing the rom? do i download it onto my comp then move it over using active sync? does it matter what folder i put it under?
sorry for the stupid questions, but i tried my best to read through the threads but i couldn't seem to absorb anything...
-tj
mail me your phone, ill put quickgps on it and whatever custom rom you want..
couple of things
first off, try advanced search for the kaiser thread
second, coming from att might get you banned here... seems anyone that mentions xda on att forums gets banned
(i for one have been happy with the customer service)
there are plenty of guides to flashing, but basically you need to be careful. hook up to active sync and install hardspl, it won't look like anything happened so verify that you did it. then you're ready to flash your rom of choice. I use XDA Live, just keep in mind that flashing is risky and so you need to read read read... I'd stick with the stock rom for awhile anyway
quickgps is under programs BTW
this thread might be deleted just on the principal that there are a hundred like it
thanks for the info....
didn't know there was so much animosity between att workers and xda people...
i just work there to pay the bills and put food in the mouth... hopefully some of you know where im coming from...
also, to get my today screen to look like this....

not really interested in the bee in the background but more the layout of the today screen... im guessing that would require a rom flash? it just looks so much cleaner then the standard today screen...

To make your screen look like that, background excluded, all you need to do is to fing HTC Home cab file and install it. You do not need to change the ROM. Search... grasshopper...er bumble bee

Interference

What is this annoying sound??
Whenever I talk with someone there is background noise that is similar to the GSM buzz heard when you have your cell phone too close to a TV or something.
Its very annoying. This also happens when I use EDGE (and possibly 3G). Is it just me, or is there a fix?
(By the way, I searched and all I found were people having a clicking sound before the speaker turns on)
Thanks in advance
come on someone has to have a fix.
is it only me?
it seems like its coming from the speaker in the back
I dont even use my phone without one

Hey guys just to let ya know, i had that same issue and went back to the store and told them about it (Mine only did it on edge). Add that it disables your sound, therefore not being able to receive calls (It did to me at least) or emails. Hope that helps. If you need more info, plz post back and I'll be gladly help out. (Restore your phone to manufacturer's state of course)
@NFRCER

i got mine from wirefly so idk

Spare 3G SIM, is it useful for anything?

I have a 3G ATT sim card just lying around, can I do anything with it?
Examples if any so I know where to look would be awesome.
Thanks!
I have a humungous pile of these.
You can call in to activate one on your account should you lose another one, it gets zapped by lightning, etc.
You can use em to store contacts and sms!
Damn I hoped I could do somthing amazing with it like build a time machine or somthing... Oh well I guess itll just hold numbers.
Thanks G!
You'd still need a flux capacitor..
Moving to General.
Use it to scrape out toe cheese.
with a little bit of creativity...
If you get another one of spare SIM cards you can easily make very nice earrings...

You are sick, man. But that did make my day!
lol!
that was great!
you should make an animated series of 3g sims gathering together to conquer the world.
do a Stop Action
What a magical evening you must have had with your special Sim card. Who doesn't deserve a hot pocket and a cold beer at the end of a long day..?
i share a very special relationship with my sim. good thing hes easy to cook for.
and hes always talking about taking over the world
wow. what more else can i say? lmao

Byt than again the average person has no idea what a sim card is lol
though it happens very, very rarely (but it has happened in the past), sometimes when service providers are updating their towers, they have glitches, where sometimes they may end up forgetting to re-secure their network. it's happened in the past, that with an old t-mobile sim card that was deactivated, I was able to throw it into a phone and get online with the temporary proxy settings that were available at the time. perhaps, if you're lucky, someday your 3g service provider might make the same mistake?

[REQ] tweak to disable vibration on start up

search for sometime now, could not find any leads that may shed light to this
anyone out there? I'll try searching for it in the registry, if only i know where to start
First off, I don't know why you'd even ask for this. It's a tiny burst of vibration that happens only once when you power up the device, and that's it. There's no harm in it and I can't see a genuine reason for wanting it gone since it happens so rarley.
Secondly, you can't get rid of it. It's part of the self-diagnostic that runs when you switch on the device. If you did find a way to stop it (and I'm 99.9999999999999999999% sure you won't) then the phone would probably think there was a problem and not boot.
You're gonna have to live with it mate.

I was also looking for a solution to this problem.
You asked, why one should wish to deactivate this little vibration on startup...well, quite simple:
My HD2 performs its system backups every night, while it is in its cradle beside my bed. I am using SPB Backup which does a warm reset after finishing its operation. It's really not very funny to wake up every night, only because there is this "little" vibration during the boot up process.
If you are a user of a genuine HTC ROM, there is even an additional little melody playing after vibrating, which is still more uncomfortable! Only for this reason, I just reflashed my HTC ROM back to a Vodafone ROM (which only has the vibration).
I think, it would really be a good idea, If someone found a tweak to suppress the boot up vibration!

For the start up tune I used "JWMD Iconchanger" to delete it... now it vibrates in silence

[REQUEST] Road sms

It is for walking and texting. I had a similar app when I had an iPhone, that did the same and also said it was for walking and texting. You think any company would support texting and driving?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Why so much hate on driving and texting? I do it all the time... and call on phone to and have a total of ZERO crashes! I've been driving for almost 10 years now so people don't tell me i shouldn't, just because you can't drive to save your life doesn't mean I dont also know how to. Honestly though with this app I can see it causing more issues then the regular SMS app for the reason you would have to hold it above the steering wheel since it uses the camera to still post on screen I rather feel safer keeping phone in lap and texting it there.
just buy a ***** car dock and type sms with the phone docked
