Hello, You aren't allowed to post you email apparently and it has been removed.
Making this forum the only way for us to help you.
First of all you should ensure wether you have a MileStone (EU) or Droid (US)
You can tell by looking at your phone and checking if it says Verizon.
If it does, I can't help you any further and you should ask for help in the Droid forums. If it doesn't, I'm close to sure we can help you out
So now that you know which phone you have, you've probably done half of the work already. I can't really tell what your problem is, but I guess you have these 2 issues:
1, You have no GPS-Application. You can buy, or get one for the phone. I'm talking about softwares like Navigon and iGo, which aren't free though, but allow you to navigate without internet (for if you don't have an internet contract.)
If you don't want to pay any money and own an internet subscribtion in your contract, you can just use Google Maps to navigate! Update it through the android market and you're good to go!
2, Now for the second issue:
Unfortunately we don't have any chance of getting custom roms! Only the Motorola Droid Does! There is a way through nandroid backups, but seen the fact that you are just new to the whole thing, I'd recommend you to explore the forums and later on install MotoFrenzy, or the official update to Froyo from motorola, which they will, according to them, release by the end of 2010
Hope I helped!
Greetings, Mike
Hi everyone,
I have been a member here for a couple months, but haven't posted anything yet~ so I apologize in advance if this is the right forum to be asking this.
I have an Htc Hd2- and have to say I absolutely hate everything about it. I was debating on replacing the windows with Android~ and would like your thoughts on it- good, bad or indifferent. The only Android OS I know about is Froyo...so if there are others out there that work better with HD2- please let me know. I'm am not literate when it comes to this kinda stuff- so please write like you are writing an Adroid for Dummies book, lol
Thank ya much!
Veneicia
android 2.2 rox for the hd2 but i found only bad thing after fixing all the bugs the batt dies real fast its been running for 2 weeks with no problems but lame bat time
Thanks xXy3kXx ! Is there a download link here at XDA? I tried searching for it- but was getting some update thread with a warning on it.
yeah you will get that because i believe you have to basically root the phone and flash the 2.2 ROM on it, its basically like me rooting my MyTouch 3G and putting a CM6 ROM on it (same process with same risks)
correct me if im wrong XDA community im sleepy =.=
Hi CoNsPiRiSiZe,
Sorry ur tired:~( So how do I go about rooting, flashing & downloading, lol? I have tried to youtube it w/ videos' that offer links- and then there is no link...this is so frustrating:_/
its really not that complicated, go to this link and read it tell me if you get stuck
its all black ops fault! stupid all nighters :O
lol...ok- I'm sending u a PM:~)
Veneicia, has this worked for you? Does the phone work well with Android? I want to change to Android but I keep seeing these remarks that a new upgrade is/ will be available to eliminate a problem... I'm lost with all of these messages!
Let me know please!
Thanks!

If you haven't noticed me and lmartin92 (AWESOME GUY) are the ONLY SHOWCASE users that has added anything to the community.. Hopefully that is about to change soon, we have a couple new guys that really sound promising, but I'm sure there's many of you that could contribute some Valuable help....
I don't think it's right depending on the Mesmerize Devs and Fascinate Devs do everything for us so I'm trying to learn what I can... And only a few months ago I'd never touched an Android device. Until about 3 weeks ago I'd never touched linux. All this is VERY new to me, but if you're willing to learn and have any knowledge with a computer, which if you've flashed anything you more than likely do, and can simply FOLLOW instructions.. Then there's plenty of people including myself that are willing to teach you what they know...
Bdemartino, has written an awesome theming guide Found HERE... He has the tools listed that you need just make sure to follow his instructions word for word... For showcase users (make sure to use the latest Showcase Pick n pack to pull the framework-res and twframework-res for your themes) Theming is trial and error.. You're more than likely not going to get it right the first try... I have some additional files with the xml edits.. Just PM me if you're interested
Phidelt82 has written up a guide for setting up a DEV box located HERE.. This may be advanced for some, but you can always walk through it and see Linux and play around with some stuff and try to learn some commands..
I'm just learning mods, but again I can teach you what I've learned...
And for all the Showcase users that don't think they can develop or don't have time, then the least you could do to support this forum is offer the Newer guys courteous answers when they ask.. I know that the same questions can get old, but let's not forget that we were all new at one point.. Some people may have no forum experience what so ever... So let's help them out, and if you don't want to do that then simply don't respond and let someone else answer them...
The last thing we want to do is scare away new Users from XDA, you never know what they may bring to the table down the road!!!!
And for the new people...
Please Read the entire posts first before doing anything, if you run into a problem try reading through the thread to see if anyone else has the same issue..
If you can't find your answer then the best place to get an answer is the irc
http://webchat.freenode.net/ channel= #samsung-mesmerize
and you can always post a question in the threads as well....
You should make some QR code stickers that link here and stick them all over your cellular south store.

Ew. First step: Drop the 1993 clichés.
I am a little new to this but succesfuly rooted my last showcase and had 2.2.1 with pick n pack .3 and voodoo kernal and it worked great other than I couldn't silence phone calls with the volume rocker. Anyone else have this issue? Then I flashed superfrankenclean Tom with comavault kernal and I had a lot of verizon stuff on it like location services powered by vzw and also 3g mobile hotspot vzw wasn't worried to much about it till this morning my service dropped to nothing then I dialed *228 which I know now was big no no and then my phone went into roaming and couldn't get any service at all so took it to csouth got a new one which probably will be charged for and then tried to do step by step instructions for froyo and links were gone and instructions so I tried to root with z4 which I did then couldn't get red recovery screen to work when I flashed update.zip kept getting no signature or something so anyway I was able to redo my steps on the froyo build from Odin as I had somehow remembered and now I got everything going on pnp.3 and using voodoo but I really miss voodoo control sound is this still not available for it? I would like to go back to superclean with comavault but would like some advice and feedback from more experienced users I posted this in another thread but figured this was best thread for it and I really wish we had our own thread because I read on this site for days back 2 weeks ago and had massive migraines from trying to figure out what would work for showcase and what wouldn't and some things like rom manager you use the fascinate for something then for other things on this site you use the mesmerize so any help with what is most stable and what to run would be appreciated only thing I can tell not working with pnp.3 now is can't silence phone calls still but I really like the superclean and would go back to it if someone posted about what's happening to cause the radio signal issue

Sorry for the lengthy post guys just trying to clear lots of things up I encountered and figured other newbies may benefit from it too.

The best advice I can give you is learn to listen (read) and follow the discussions and advice these forums provide. Only flash ROMs, kernels, etc. that are either designed for the Showcase or are known to be compatible with it. Period. If you don't pay attention, and just go off flashing this and that and whatever, you're asking for trouble. There's no need to get a headache over all the stuff that's out there that isn't for the Showcase. Only concern yourself with what is either for, or is compatible with, the Showcase. Everything else isn't relevant.
And if after actually reading the original post and the thread and you still aren't sure if its a-ok for the Showcase, just ask. But read first. Don't be that guy who asks, when the original post clearly states it is or isn't Showcase compatible in the second or third sentence. Know what I mean?
As for the superclean ROM. I'm running it and the comavolt kernel and have had absolutely zero issues.
I've had two other people tell me they lost their signal all together with superclean to and they tried to go back to pnp and they still had no signal. Only way they got it back was to use odin. Guess ill try it out again as I really liked it. Under settings and mobile network which one of the boxes do you have checked? Home automatic a or b?

Googling disney mobile magic apk returns a couple results for 210dp.apk which worked like a charm
220.apk?
Does anyone have the latest version 2.2.0 (I'm assuming it's 220dp.apk)? I googled it and nothing showed up. If someone could post or PM me the .apk, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I second that!

I second that one, I'm going to the parks in 2 weeks. I've got the 2.1.0 version, but would love the updated one if anyone has it!
I think I have it. Let me see if I can figure out how to get a link up on my phone. Our pm an email and I'll email it.
Boo
So it says on the app page in the market that it us version 2.2.0 but after downloading, the info inside the app still says 2.1.0 . Not sure if is over sight in their part but none the less I'll pull the current version on the market and figure out how to get it to you guys.
Boo
I just found this thread and cannot locate the .apk for this program. Does anyone have a link for it? I've looked everywhere online and cannot seem to obtain the file. Has it been removed?
Lynden, I couldn't get the .apk from the link at the Disboards site. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Yeah I need check into that. It seems to just want to log people in. It was posted to google docs and I wonder if it got reported and taken down. Someone from disney probably did, as I know they lurk the disboards. Pm an email and I can just email you the apk for now.

Hey, you guys! I've been stalking these forums for a long time and now I have a problem where I will need your help. Now, before I get slammed for it, I've searched these and other forums for what I need, I've Googled for hours and hours on end, I've emailed people, and I still can't find a fix to my problem. OK, enough complaining, here is my problem: I bought a Nexus S 4G a few months ago for only $120. I planned on getting it flashed to MetroPCS through their MetroFlash program. I went to their corporate store, and they said they couldn't flash my phone for legal reasons, but they directed me to a man who could flash my phone. I go to him, and he wants $150 to flash it, I say hell no and decide to do it myself. I'm regretting my decision now because ( A.) CDMA Workshop is hard as hell to learn ( B.) There is almost no support out there for this phone.
Anyways, I want to know, has anyone been successful in flashing their NS4G to MetroPCS at home? If you have, please enlighten me! I've been brain-****ting myself to make this work. Right now I'm stuck at the part where I write the ESN. I can read ESN, but when I try to write it, it says "Failed.. ESN has not been changed." I can read/write everything else, except for ESN. I have unlocked it through the SPC and the Internal Security Password. Another issue I'm having is that when I try to read the memory, it gives me an error message saying, "Process is stopped. Phone does not answer" "Process is stopped at: 0000:1000"
This process is too hard, and I call on the great minds of XDA to help me out! Please, all and any information will help! I will love you forever! Thank you in advance!
Edit: I'm using CDMA Workshop 3.8 Trial Version by the way!
Edit: I forgot to mention, everything in this thread is hypothetical and for educational purposes only.
For legal reasons xda forbids on esn hacks. I don't know where you would get help on this but post it if you find something.
Did you search youtube?
Why do you need to change the ESN? That's illegal anyway.
You can follow the Cricket instructions over at howardforums.

I need it to transfer the ESN from my MetroPCS dumbphone to my Sprint Nexus S 4G. I'm trying to get the NS4G to work on Metro. Also, can you please link me to or help me find those instructions? The search function over there is weak and I can't find anyone who has information on flashing a NS4G. Thank you so much for guiding me in the right direction though!

I agree, the basic process is universal but right now I can't find help for my issue, and even in forums for phones other than the NS4G, I can't find anyone experiencing the same problem. I could use any and all the information I can get right now, because the NS4G doesn't have any readily available simple tutorials for it to be flashed to MetroPCS. There are tutorials for Boost, Cricket, and PagePlus, and I have tried following those, but run into problems with those as well. I'm at a dead end and need help
You don't suppose to change your ESN. You call your carrier and Activate the ESN on your carrier, all you really need to do is load Metro PCS prl.

My friend has an EVO flashed to MetroPCS. I thought it was neat. There is also a thread where someone went to craigslist to find a person to flash an Epic 4g. You may find something there. Keep us updated, please. And if you figure it out for yourself, more power to ya
i'm looking to do the same thing but not to MetroPCS... i have another carrier i would like to flash to but it's a new carrier and there's NO INFO online for flashing to them... and they're online so i can't go to their store to flash this... what info would i need to get this ball rolling??
Just pay to have it done by someone who knows what they're doing. I got my NS4G flashed for $40 including 1st month of service.
