So I am upgrading my phone soon, but I'm wondering about my old one. I'd like to keep it around. It will no longer have CDMA access, but wifi will still work. Is there a way to disable (permanently?) the CDMA radio so it does not consume power and only the WIFI radio works?
Also, a paranoia note, what if I don't want the CDMA radio to work because I'm a freak and afraid "they" might remotely disable my phone, or yada yada yada...
Probably should ask this in Q&A.
I know in CM6 you can keep wi-fi on in Airplane mode, don't know if you are running that or not. Also, how are they going to remote disable a phone that's already not really running? That doesn't even make sense.
Wrong area posted AGAIN.

that is when you joined and you have misposted like 3 posts(and thats half of you posts since you have only done 6 posts)!!!!!
Please read the rules fully before posting. Use common since when it comes to posting. Like the rules say...'BEFORE YOU POST ASK YOURSELF WHAT AM I DEVELOPING".!!!
Sorry to be rude but this was a post that was completely unnecessary.
easiest way, is not disable the cdma entirely but put a stock rom or nfinite fxs rom on it, do ##3282# and change the min/mdn to random numbers (preferrable: 0000000 and 0000000 ) and wala, phone is no longer associated with your account and it cant be 'remotely' disabled
I will give that some thought and try it! I appreciate the response, unlike the other posters. I cannot wait until I get 100 or so posts under my belt so I can be a jerk to people as well!

Airplane mode is called that for a reason it disables all wireless communication INCLUDING WiFi for when, you guessed it, your on an Airplane so that it doesnt fux with the airplanes electronics! As far as them remotely disabling a disabled phone, that WONT happen, but just to calm the fears, thats how its done.
As far as the OP, you COULD flash that phone over to PagePlus and use it as a backup phone , I have a guide on howto do it
Well, you CAN use wifi once you are in the air, but I think its just SwitchPro that lets ya do that.

maybe so but by DEFAULT airplane disables ALL radio communication(s)
Yes, I am aware of that, just thought you could easily do both (which you can, but forgot you can't do it natively I guess).

Google it. Can't post warez on XDA.
Also, to the original poster. Keep both phones. That way you have a back up in case the new one fails or gets lost and you don't have to pay insurance. Assuming you're on Sprint, you get the Premier Customer upgrade every 12 months.

Actually that's what I tell myself to feel special. Are they just upgrading every Tom, **** and Harry under the sun?
awww c'mon guyz... wuz just being facetious...I guess my lame attempt @ some geek humor gets trumped by the nerd-rage i was trying to center the lil joke around. I know the developers of swype have repectfully asked xda-developers.com to remove the .apk and consider it warez. Just a thought though... the kind of harsh scrutiny our fellow in the OP was getting is exactly the reason Id like to give a special thank-you to the Unrevoked team for not making me go through the humiliation of smarter people that I'm coming to for advice flogging me publicly rather than politely steering me in the right direction.Ive learned alotta great stuff here, too. So can we all just get along?

The ROM upgrade to 6.1 went well and it looks great (outstanding work!).
I have no sound at all now.
Vibrate works.
Speaker is on etc but no ring, sounds, anything.
Any ideas?
Also - is there a way to get rid of the start-up flash that shows TEST ONLY, NOT FOR SALE ?
Thanks.
I'm felling nice today. Don't get used to it.
1. Click on the link in my sig. go to radios folder, then 6.1 radios, d/l one and flash it. you are using a 6.0 radio and it wont work.
2. while there, pick a splash screen and flash it as well.
Edit:
Heads up, I think I hear Kyphur and his Colossal Hammer headed this way. Watch your head. I ain't gettin hit with that damn thing.
FLASH A 6.1 RADIO! We really don't need people making new threads for this, we get enough people in the release threads that Dutty posts.
/Flame on
Is there a reason why you didn't READ Post #2 in Dutty's thread?
Mods: Please slam the hammer of redundancy on this thread...

Also, its a harsh world here at XDA and the regulars like people to do some reading and research before asking questions (unfortunatly, you asked a question that has been answered about a billion times over the last few years and lesser men have been kicked senseless for asking the same question as you).

Here's what's truly ironic about the OP's bump, is that just before posting it, he flamed someone here.
Anyway, using my magical powers, this thread will never be bumped again...
So it took me many hours to figure this out, and I am sure there are some people staying up late at night trying to unlock there AT&T tilt's. You may succeed in unlocking your tilt, but what happened to your camera? Or what happened to your calls? Its all messed up right?
Thats what XDA developers would like to call, the "Radio". Your radio is not liking your phone so it acts up.
Long story short, start here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375583 with the Kaiser unlock. Follow all of that mumbo jumbo than when your done, go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421007. This second link is the original radio for your tilt that will pretty much restore the phone to its normal radio, yet keep your phone unlocked and kick BUTT!!!!!
Enjoy and if there is there is anybody you should donate to it would be either of those links
NOTE!!!!!! The second link can be performed ONLY on the AT&T tilt. Not the TYTN II, or any other type, just the Tilt.
Cheers M8's

He was being sarcastic and making a joke at your expense. Dont worry about it.
A few threads have been removed the past few hours. These are regarding a leaked radio which is known to brick devices and has been taken from a compromised server.
Reposting will not be tolerated. Distribution through PM, or even hinting that you may be available to spread it through PM or other methods, will be treated as open reposting. "Vacations" will be dealt out to those who do so.
This is both for your own good as for the good of others. Some of you are able to read between the lines - I have read it in your posts - and good for you.
Have patience, it will come.
if you build it they will come...

The fact that we have an MR2 Radio means GB could be right around the corner. I have had one reboot with it, (although that might have been a fluke, as the phone had 3% battery left), and so far it is very stable, and I wouldn't be surprised to see an official build out soon.

Whether or not they are being like security guards, they are right about this going in general.

Hey guys!
I am getting this weird error at boot logo-
"customerID error: contact dealer
Boot to suspend m/TCMD mode:dead:0000:00000000:000000cc" something like this.
It wasn't giving me any problems with kexec roms(This error was generated when I flashed a kexec rom). But when I FXZd back to ICS 4.0.4(due to some reason), it's giving me an illuminated screen nothing past that! Please help.
Edit- Did my homework and found out that it's the CID error? Also found the solution. You have to boot using BP tools. I love you XDA!! Again I'm gonna write steps here for noobs like me
1) Enter fast boot by pressing power+volume down
2) Press power button, then press power+volume up+volume down
3) navigate to bp tools and press volume up
Just realize, this does not fix the real issue, it just bypasses the check.
You most likely will have issues down the road with your provider.
The ONLY way to fix this is restore a backup of YOUR, CID image (each persons phone has a unique Customer ID).

Thanks for the info! Yeah I read it. So, can I backup CID now using BMM? Or is it lost forever?

Yes if that is who your network provider is, otherwise it is whoever gives you your service. This is sent to your provider with the IMEI when phone calls and data are requested. At some point your provider may stop allowing service from any phone that does not send back a valid CID.
No you can not put it back without a valid backup from YOUR phone, if you did not backup your phone, you may be screwed.

Yeah the A2 is super cheap here, and always has been. The thing is that this phone was released in way more than just the sea area. There is the US version, the SEARET/MEARET, the HK version, there were 2 euro versions, that somehow only released a very limited number of phones, it was like in Greece and the UK, and then they stopped shipping them after only 2 months of sales (only like a few hundred).
ALL versions except the MEARET/SEARET were locked down so tight that anything you tried to do to them would screw you. And yes everywhere but in India the CID does matter, so please read, as this has been posted many times, and your posting what you did does not make it a fact, but maybe only in your country/ phone version. Also the XDA site does not only cater to the India market, it is a world wide site, and like I said the A2 was released world wide.

Wow, what an ignorant little ****, you are.
There are 3 devs from India. Devesh, Ravikrang, and Turffe. ALL of the rest of the devs are from the US, and one is from Frankfurt, and even one from China.
alteredlikeness, Hashcode, lfaber06, lkrasner, rdavisct, timmytim, daavis, cogeary, myself, etc. are ALL from the US.
Wanggjhost is from China.
The thing is that devesh, is a great guy but he mostly ports ROMS from other phones, and does really do much "developing", so you can sort of throw him out, if you want to really count people who have actually done real development work on this phone.
So humm, sounds like there are so many developers from India on here (2), and I have not seen either one very recently, on here.
Just because there are a crapload of people, from India (right now) posting in the General and Q&A section asking the same questions without searching, over and over again does not make them devs.
It might help you, if you go back and read all over this forum so you know what has and has not been done. The answers to most of the questions have been answered so many times now, and I have given you a break since you just signed up on XDA a month ago, but as of this post that is done, as you insulted so many devs, who do this work all for free in their spare time, to better the phone and community, and you can not even show respect for those devs, and make statements so arrogantly when you do not have all the correct information, and were just too lazy to take a look at who your devs are, and where they are from.

And what I originally said is correct wherever, you live, and for, the OP's, OG issue, is not just an issue for those in India, and ALL of your responses never took that into account. So, that is why I said what I said! And that Is why I took offense, as your statement about ALL the devs here being from india is incorrect, and you need to think before making blanket statements like that! As it is offensive to a good majority of hard work by others from around the world.
I get that the second post you made:

All I am trying to say is be careful what you say, as you are a bit of a "n00b" poster here, so read up on the history of this phone.
These are a few good posts, maybe a bit out of date, but you may get some insights from these, and gain a bit of understanding:

Whoa!
I never knew this was so serious! I mean it was mentioned in all OPs to back up CID, but I was ignorant and was like "Ah wth!! What could possibly go wrong??" But I know now what can.
ENJOYING TILL IT LASTS I WOULD SAY!
But I don't think that would cause any problems because it's not that strict here! LOL!
@darth_nihar, please learn to respect senior devs, not that I'm pointing or anything...just giving a heads up.
We cool??

You are lucky you live in an area where carriers are less strict about security like this. You will have to bypass thr issue with bmm on every boot and this will be a real pia. you may think about buying another a2 with a broken screen and exchange the innards with you screen ans case, then take a backup of the old and new, then try and do all the same rom installs and hacks again, and if you lose the CID, you can restore it since you made a backup with the new board/storage.
I know that seems like a lot of work, but it will make you whole and you can sell the broken phone so you are not out much money.
There is guide on how to replace the screen in the general section, that should get you everything you need to do this.
Good luck!

Sounds like a great idea! But I think I would rather buy a new phone down the road(nexus maybe). Because even used phones are overpriced here.
Lesson learnt..Pheww! Gotta start saving now

No it's cool. Just be careful what you post, and that people get your drift. Be glad it was me, and that was not really pissed, because I have had people banned for being complete pricks, not that you were. Others may not have been so gracious.
We are cool, though.
I would like to add that, though I am far from being a developer, I am also from the US. I live in Louisiana now, but I am originally from Texas, which if I remember correctly, Jim is too. If I am right about that then I can vouch for him that you did get off easy. There's a reason that the saying is " Don't mess with Texas ". We Texans are a no-nonsense group of people. Hahaha!
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

Ok now you seriously crossed your line.
* crapload of people, from India (right now)*
* so you can sort of throw him out*
Seriously? He has done way more than you ever did.
As for all the *devs* you mentioned "all from US" , only 2 of them do real development. Namely hash and altered. Rdavisct and daavis used to dev.. But that was long time ago.. So you can sort of throw out the rest (including and especially yourself). And you actually spoil their reputation. Considering how humble hash and altered are..
The one who actually brought a proper working aosp (including radio) based roms to this device was Wang. And I remember the way you posted in that thread.. All the skepticism.. The only thing you ever said before this was " I am working on ril" "discussing ril on XDA is not allowed"..
As for all that you boast about yourself, here is the truth. You are a big fake.. You have actually done no development for this device. The only thing was the Ubuntu on webtop hack. And I am not really sure how original it is..
The only things you say are
1. Some thing big is on the horizon/around the corner.
2. Give credit.
3. Cannot be done.
Here is one more thing. On the a2 you always said the bl is locked so you cannot do anything. I haven't seen you do anything for the s3.. That has an unlock able bl I guess..
"and I have not seen either one very recently, on here."
Really? I come here and post pretty much every day..
Oh and if there is something you are good at, that's starting flamewars. Since you no longer have the phone any more and posted your "goodbye" thread, here is a sincere request..
PLEASE LEAVE!
Nothing worthwhile has come from you.
Honestly, you are the reason this device's development was hampered.. Not the locked bl..
BTW, here are a few worthy things devesh has done.
1. Get hash, dtrail, altered and me in contact and hence get things moving. He is half the reason we have "official" cm today. It's not you.
2. He is the whole reason we have JBX. Dtrail1 doesn't own an a2..
And at the one who posted the other post, here is something you need to keep in mind.
There are Ppl from all over the world with different nationalities, gender, race, religion and everything else. So DONT POST ANYTHING ABOUT ANY OF THOSE MENTIONED.
P. S. And Ppl from any other nation, nothing personal. If I have hurt any of you in the above rant, my sincere apologies. I have respect for all nations.
Good bye.
