Hi there,
Firstly, I am new to all this so please dont flame me to hard for it. I have been looking all over the forum and spent some hours here before I decided to post this
I have a SPV M600 and want to do the following
1) Unlock it to T-Mobile
2) Update the rom to the Imate Jamin Rom (I have this)
3) Do I need to clear the ext rom ?
I dont know what tools or programs I need so if someone could kindly tell me where to get these and in what order to do it in, I will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for ignoring my ignorance
Thanks
Not an answer to your question but a question for you:
The SPV M600 has Orange's horrible menu over the top of the regular M$ Today screen. Is it possible to get rid of this and have the standard M$ user interface? The reason I ask is because I'm thinking of getting one as my next PDA/Phone.
Hopefully someone will provide links to all the instructions you need. :wink:
Can you please post your version details?
i.e your ROM and radio version etc, because not all of the rom versions can be unlocked....
some people have managed to change ROM to the new Imate one using Machinagod's RUU utility, but it does not sim unlock your device.
Some users have unlocked using Lockiwiz (search in wizard forum), but it does not work with AKU2 ROMS
Hope this helps

hi,
i recently purchased a spv m600. you can easily use the standard today screen. just go into the "today" parameters and uncheck the "orange" entry in the elements section.
i have done this and am happily using a standard today screen. however...
on the orange screen there is a cool menu for the sms stuff. it gives you lots of information about sms receieved, etc... i am missing this a little.
however, without the orange today screen, i can not find the sms program at all. i have been looking around, but have not found the executable to be able to launch or create a shortcut.
if any one out there knows where it is, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all. I have thoroughly searched through the forum and this is the closest I have come to nyoneone mentioning Oranges Today plugin!
I am trying to customise my Today screen using Wisbar Advance & WAD, but the Orange Today plugin keeps poppin up and interfering with available option for the WAD screen. I think it's an incompatibility thing, but I can't get rid of the Orange plugin even though I have it unchecked in the Today settings.
Please help. Is it deletable (the plug-in) or does anyone know its file/application name?
Any help is appreciated. :?
Did you even read the manual??
To get rid of the Orange plug-in:
Go to Start -> Settings -> Today Screen -> Items
Unceck Orange and press "Ok"
Been there, done that!!

'but I can't get rid of the Orange plugin even though I have it unchecked in the Today settings.'
Tried that! Hence the request for some help!??! :roll:
Anyway, not to worry mccune. Thanks for trying all the same. :wink:
Anyone find this application yet?
It does exist
http://www.blackberry.com/uk/produc...owsmobile.shtml
Link isn't valid anymore. However I know the Blackberry website has shown connect software for quite some time. I have yet to see it for a Smartphone however I know some people got it up and running on thier Wizards.
I am hoping someone find the bb connect for this device, especially since HTC has a track record for releasing a client for their devices. I have not seen BB connect for any wm5 smartphone device yet. I don't think it exists.
I saw a screen shot on the RIM site...but cannot find the app for WM5 smartphone...have found it for WM5 pocket pc...but that will not install on smartphone.
Here is the original BB Connect cab file for WM 2003 on S. Africa provider, Vodacomm
It would only install on a Moto MPx220 device running WM 2003 and gave a uncertified device error when I tried it on any other device. Any programmers out there want to give it a shot and change the cab file so it does not require a particular device to install on? I never did get it to work on my Cingular provided MPx220, but perhaps there was an app lock issue I wasn't aware of. I've learned a lot in the last few years about WM issues. If anyone would like to take this Cab apart with an app like CabWiz and rebuild it, we could all try this out on a WM 5.0 device, and see if we could get it to work.
OK, I've put in a request to RIM
Let's see what I hear back on this. Anyone else have any update, please post here, or at least link to another forum if there is a client discovered, etc.

Any updates on this? Would love to see this device with blackberry connect...
I was told by RIM that it was coming out this month for the Excaliber
Well, I was holding my breath, but I heard it is now released on the Dopod version, the C720, in Asia. This is huge. It shouldn't be long before we can pull that app off the Dopod ROM and use on any Dash, S620, or other HTC Excaliber model! If anyone has any updates, or gets their hands on this Dopod ROM, please post it here.

Anyone have a Dopod Account? Click on Download now, I am trying to sign up now.
Damm it, I need a serial number any Dopod. Anyone have one?
Super excited now
I recently got a TMobile DASH and waiting for simunlock code from the carrier. I can unlock it now and put BBConnect and use it with Cingular....Super!!
Can't wait, please someone upload it....
Alright everyone, I finally got it. Enjoy!!! Please try and let me know if it works, I hope we don't need a special rom. If this works, I am running out and getting a dash
It works on stock T-Mobile DASH ROM....I didn't even do app unlock...All I did was Sim unlock for Cingular service.

Got BBConnect installed on my imate smartflip successfully, but PIN is stuck at "Pending". Does anyone have any idea what I have to do now?
Please help!!!
Got it installed on my Blackjack with no problems but alas, I have the Pending pin. There is a BB Connect dekstop software out there that will generate a pin for a bis account but I cant seem to find it. I even tried my Treo 750 desktop dsoftware but it wont work. We need a dekstop Software to generate the pin.
The desktop software doesn't generate PIN. It isn't even connecting with my phone....so mad....
I got it working on my palm 750v without the desktop software btw....not sure what I did and loved it.
Uh, Senna 174, I saw you in the Blackberryforums as a new member asking for this Activesync Blackberry configuration tool. So yes it does generate it. Research your infor before posting information grasshoppa.
SP,
Perhaps you can show me how to get it done then.
I installed the software and connect the phone, then I got an unsuccessful connection error. I think the software is running (How do I verify it?) and it is connected to the desktop.
I wouldn't be asking questions if I had all the answers.
Works with Croatian BIS and BES services by both operators!!!
PIN generated, it's enough..
Hi,
I just purchased a new HTC Touch HD phone T8285.
I have realised that it has come pre-loaded with a lot of Telstra configuration. I am not a Telstra customer and I would like to start with a clean phone in the factory shipped state.
I am in Australia and currently have a contract through Virgin (Optus)
Can anyone advise how I can reset the phone configuration so that all reference to Telstra is removed and that the standard factory settings are in place for Australia.
Any help is appreciated

Hi, welcome to XDA! You would need to flash a chef's cooked rom (must have HardSpl 1st). Check out the Blackstone section of this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
Also, read the Sticky's!
How do I determine which one of these posts is relevant to my HTC Touch HD...?
When I search for this there are a lot of listings.....can you point me to one that might be specific for my device and location
Apologies as I am new at this....
Thanks
Scott

Scott, just click the http link in my above post and then do your search
Thanks for that I can see those instructions and will attempt to follow them...
A further question should I attempt to first use the following ROM upgrade link from HTC to see if it resolves my problem. Rather then using the previous reset instructions...
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
Or will this simple return me to the current state with the Telstra settings in place ?
Thanks

Hi,
Before I work use the post above to re-install the ROM on my HTC Touch HD....could I confirm the following...
- will the re-install of this mean that I will not be able to take updates to the ROM from HTC in the future
- will this process work for me as an Australia mobile phone user ?
- does the install include all the Windows Mobile operating system on the phone ready to use
Once again thanks for you help......I am new to this and want to make sure that I don't stuff the phone that have
Thanks

- You can make any update in the future, cooked ROM´s from XDA are much better than any "official" version
- It should work
- Yes
Social Web - Remove Telstra Wap Redirections ?
HI,
Dont know if anyone can help ... I have been searching the forums, but cant find this anywhere, so apologies if it is answered somewhere else.
I have a new HD2 with Telstra. I have managed to remove the locked quicklinks on the home page, and completed a few other incredible tweaks, but I just cannot seems to get the Social Web links to work when connected to WiFi - they will work when connected via Next G.
On WiFi, when I click on the Facebook icon for example, I get redirected to waprd.telstra.com/redirect?target=facebook-g ... and then nothing happens for about a minute. Just a white screen until I get a message saying "Could not connect to the remote server" . Yet, when I am connected via Next G I connect to Facebook immediately.
I have tried to find the xml code to change the URl, but I cannot find it anywhere.
Is anyone else having this problem, and if they did, was there a solution? Overall I am really happy with the phone (now that I seem to have spent about 3 days tweaking it!) and I would really like to get this fixed.
Thanks so much in advance.

hi sarah,
just wondering how did u get rid of the quicklinks off the the home screen, im not happy how they can not provide a phone in its original state!!any other important tweaks i should do when i purchase the phone??
waprd.telstra
I'm having the same issues any waprd.telstra sites will not work in a wifi enviroment. While I'm asking does anyone know hoe to changes the icons in the telstra "news and sport" or "social web" screens" ?
Hey Magic3091
Unfortunately most of those items are hard wired into the ROM. And the ROM is written to Telstra's specs. Hence the branding and all the BS
I suggest you try a new ROM to remove all of these. You'll have to do some reading to find out which is best for you.
I only just got my HD, and having seen how much Telstra stuff is there I WILL be ROMing it. I just need to figure out which one. If I rememder I will post which I choose.
Currently the MIRI rom looks like the best - new WinMob6.5 and Touch flo.

Hey guys I'm new to Android but have always been into customising and pushing the limits for gadgets I get so rooting sounds just like me.
The biggest question I have is will I be able to install Pandora Radio somehow after rooting?
I live in New Zealand and cannot access the app through the Market and when I go through the website it says "Please choose device to install to" I choose "vodafone NZ Desire HD" and it says that the item is not available on that carrier.
I use Pandora on my PC by using a VPN to access the website, is there something similar I can do for my android? Or maybe a way I can trick it to think I am on a US carrier?
Thanks for any help guys, oh and I am using a HTC Desire HD.
Hi guys,
I just bought a new HTC inspire with froyo 2.2 from ATT in the US unlocked. Now I sent this phone to my bro in Peru, where he had a HTC aria without any problems.
Phone works great but we can not install skype. We can not even find it in the android market. I tried to download it from skype.com/m but I cant. It says (this item is not available in your carrier). However as I told you he has an HTC aria with the same phone carrier and uses skype there without a problem.
How can I fix this ????
Thanks
..Sorry was on my phone and posted to the wrong thread.....lol

Have you tried turning off data and accessing the market through wifi only?
If the phone is rooted use market enabler not sure if works with unrooted ones, also try 4shared app from 4shared.com to find Skype apk, can have issues tho until u download the right apk for ur device
Problem fixed!
I had Skype up and running on my Android, but my phone's hardware died and went to Hades. I received a replacement phone; when I tried to re-load Skype, I found it didn't even show up on the Android Market! I tried other application download engines, as well as the download link from Skype.Com, all with the same result.
After hours of agonizing with Skype and Sprint tech support, and getting nowhere, I spent about 7 hours reviewing, over and over, my Android's settings. I finally resolved it thus:
1. Open the Android Market
2. Choose "Settings."
3. Change the "Content Filtering" maturity rating to "Medium."
And that's it! I don't understand why Skype requires a slightly immoral maturity rating, since the app is positively "G" rated, and I've already complained to them about that.
Good luck!
