i didnt get it from sprint so i doubt they will fix it.
HTC probably will fix it for a charge of course. did you buy it from ebay or one of those third party phone dealers?
i would go back to the source...

My Tilt was purchased unlocked from ebay and a couple months later my usb port broke. I took it into a store and they looked at it, saw it was broken, and handed me a new one (might of been a refurb but can't tell).
I'd just suggest restoring the sprint shipped rom if you changed it then head on over to a store, or look on the website if theres a sprint device repair center near you, and give it a shot.
also it powercycling may be a software error and not hardware, have you tried removing the most recently installed apps or hard reseting?

bought it off ebay.
If it hasn't been to long, can't you contact the seller? Or file a claim with paypal?
You might to drop an e-mail to Pocket PC Techs; they repair lots of HTC devices.
Hi guys, just a heads up. Copilot gps navigation is free. You can download any country map for free BUT, there's always a BUT, full voice guided navigation costs you £19.99 in the UK. But hey, its for free. Might be of use to somebody.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alk.copilot.mapviewer&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5hbGsuY29waWxvdC5tYXB2aWV3ZXIiXQ..
HELL YESSS!!!!!!!
I bought the UK one on my iPhone for £19.99, and was pissed that when I switched to android im told I have to buy it again! , can happily live without voice as I use it on my motorcycle where I cant hear anything over the exhaust noise anyway!
Edit: still annoying its only 2D
i have just downloaded this but i get 3d view and turn by turn voice i havent paid is it a trial or something like that?

Im getting the same, I assumed it was because I had the UK and Ireland map purchases link to my account already, only time will tell i guess!
ok out of interest i deleted it then re downloaded it direct from gplay and as stated no 3d and no voice is the link higher up a cracked version?

I don't think so mate. Its from the Play Store so it should be completely legitimate. I think you must've just encountered a bug or something that got you features that were supposed to be blocked.
Oh well, having read the reviews it sounds quite buggy in general. Waiting for the new Sygic...
Corrupt text inputs
Is it just my copy of it? On the Prime the text input does not work correctly and keeps adding or removing random letters. Cannot enter an email address easily and now have no idea what password was set.
Works well on the Xoom but not the prime.
Configuration issue
does someone know if there is a way to configure this app so the menu'es aren't so tiny?
i purchased copilot uk years ago on my G1 phone and for some reason its completely disappeared from my google account. so ive just gone ahead and grabbed a cracked copy.
its a good app but theres no way in hell im paying again

I can beat that I bought the v8 + upgrade to full europe maps total cost £70. After trying the "FREE" version of v9 alk(copilot) has closed my v8 licence and tells me I HAVE to use v9 now.

pfft, thats not right at all. cheeky bastards!
Yes, I would recommend finding a different navigator... I have the full version and it has a lot of bugs and their support basically sucks... Their solution to every bug report is that there is something wrong on my side and they want me to delete everything on my phone to fix their bugs....

Your dead right, i bought co pilot once, they totally screwed up my upgrade and then blamed me, the treated me like an idiot and took no responsability for they're software , wouldnt give me a refund, wouldn't let me migrate etc etc etc,
i urge you, all do not buy from this company
they are only money grabbers selling a bug ridden program, its almost as if they don't realise there are better alternatives out there,
i for one will never buy from them again, anyone else had similar experience with co pilot/dough pilot?

I use Sygic Aura.
I bought Copilot 3 years ago. seldom use it.
Sygic is much better IMHO and its ''free''

Sygic is much much better than copilot, I tried copilot when I had a 3GS Tom tom was better but for android Sygic is best I come across yet

I bought this app for my Wm6.5 and had utterly terrible support, bad enough that I relish the opportunity to let everyone else know. They had this botched system where when you upgraded ROM you had to uninstall and deregister to be able to re-install. Needless to say the system failed and I had to jump through a million hoops to get them to give me a new activation code as if I was some kind of a criminal. Best avoided for sure.
sorry to dig up an old thread but I downloaded the free version of Copilot for my Galaxy Note running 4.1.2 Jellybean and the application doesnt open. It hangs on the splash screen and closes.
Anyone else experience this problem? Any fixes?
Go to Applications, Copilot, and then FC-Clear cache-Clear data... i did that and i dont have any problem... only once i had this problem

I tried that and it didnt work. I also tried a fresh install on my friends Galaxy S2 and he gets the same exact problem!
Unless there is an application or setting on the device causing it to crash? Ideally I don't want to hard reset my device.

Guys I got this working. It was because I had my Text to Speed service disabled. Once enabled it seems to load up just fine
Hi everyone,
I recently bought a Mi 4 with a antutu rating of 33k in a hurry only to find out that it was a fake Mi 4
Now I am stuck with this phone as I do not have money to buy it and no one seems to want to buy this from me when I specify that it is not an original..
So I thought maybe you guys could help me make the most of my ****ty situation and help me get this phone running at a better level by rooting or some other method. I would say I am an average male phone user and would really appreciate your help in this matter.
Below are all the information I got from antutu on the phone.
I cant seem to post the link as I am new here so I am going to break it up maybe a kind admin will help me out here
dropbox .com/sh/orltaaxohuquhe2/AAC4ljoi4kr4Ypt3IOdBf1zfa?dl=0
Phone stats aside...
The phone feels sluggish not what I would expect an octa core phone to be like.
The rear cam feels like its around 5mp and not 13.
Front cam might be around 2mp but definitely not 5mp
Phone is not rooted.
Came with a chinese market (not mi market) and a browser named "Baidu Browser"
So far I have tried to install google play using the google play apk and also by using the google installer but each time it does not let me sign into google with my gmail account saying that there was a connection problem and the google play services crashes around the same time... sigh. somehow google play seems to work when going through a browser. but it is very slow and a bit of a process.
I dont really know what else I could post that is useful but please let me know and I will share it ASAP.
I hope you guys can help me or I would have completely wasted around USD 120.
(i know it might not seem much to some of you but its a big amount in my country)
Thanks for taking the time to read my post, I hope I will find the help I need here.
Regards,
Mark
You realized you bought a clone May I ask where you bought it? Your phone is based on a MTK6589 chip and it should be possible to root it. Just installing the play store won't work as you also need the google play services to use the play store. By the way Antutu shows that your phone has already root access. In my opinion best way was to have a look for a custom recovery and flash a google apps bundle. Otherwise you can try to download gapps bundle for your android version, extract the apks and install it manually.

I bought it from a buyer through a local ebay like site in my country (sri lanka)
I did try installing google play services along with google play as well as some other google stuff...
I checked the phone with a root checker app and it said it was not rooted, antutu got so many things wrong so i bet its not really rooted as well.
I also thought I would be able to flash the phone with a different rom or set up the phone with a google apps bundle and stuff but it looks crazy complicated and I cant really understand which gapps version to download even
Would you happen to know a guide for someone like me?

Could be kinda hard You will ned at least root acces to make google play work. The point is that i'm not sure which clone you got as there are different Mi4 Clones on the market. Could you at least check "settings->phone info->software" which android rom is installed?

Had a look. And not a valid solution for you. Its really weird as the MTK 6589 chip is a quad core cpu not a octa core. Have you tried to contact thze person sold it to you?

Hey everyone
I just heard about Huawei been a bit more relaxed about rooting their Mate 30 Pro.
At First I was like that is AWESOME, the idea of been able to use the Mate 30 Pro with pixel experience (my favourite custom Rom) sounds amazing.... best Pixel stock experience on a beast like Mate 30 would be epic.
Then I found a strange taste in my mouth. There would still be some draw backs. Thought I would list some concerns and people could answer some of those concerns.
(Note....each concern/question has a solution or comment I think about the issue.....this is just my view and not to be taken as the only view)
1. Lack of full potential from cameras on the back?
I know some custom ROM camera apps are pretty good l, but to really experience the best from the camera's you would have to have some access to l the Mate 30 Pro stock camera app package to allow.
A thought I had is that Huawei could make a APK that's a bit like Goodlock and this app would allow you to download the stock camera app and other stock apps that people may use on their Huawei devices.
2. LTE and 5G??
I can remember using my Samsung S7E with Pixel Experience but one of the draw backs was that I could get 4G but I didn't get the extra features like LTE, wifi calling, HD call quality ect. If this remained the case then this would be a major draw back to a 2019 flagship device.
Maybe Huawei could needed coding and solutions directly to custom Rom developers....or allow then to be a open source so every ROM devloper had access these features.
3. General Custom ROM glitches and bugs
We are all used to our ROMs having strange behaviours every now and ad gain but do we want these bugs on our £800+ smartphone that we use eveqersryday.
This solution seems obvious Huawei need to work closely with custom Rom developers and helping them Iron these issues out.
4. Some apps dont work on custom Roms no matter what.
Back to my S7e I was able to almost all of the apps on my phone thanks to magisk manager but some apps still had issues. My samsung gear app would pair with my gearfit 2 no matter what. It downloaded but it would not find any devices. I found a fix but that caused my Google to stop working, so had to put it back. This happened with other apps as well.
The only solution I can think of is app developers would have to made aware that mate 30 users could be using rooted devices with Huawei's blessing and ensure there apps work on rooted versions of the phone.
5. Is Warranty still safe.
If Huawei are actually cool with us rooting our P30 Pro then they need to put their money where their mouth is and allow this activity with their manufactures warranty, private insurance companies need to follow suit as well.
Huawei could give us manufactures warranty but with the condition that if possible we have to flash the stock firmware of the device before sending it out.
That's it....that's just s few of my thoughts and possible solutions and would love to hear what you guys think and if you have any worries or questions of your own? Maybe if we make enough noise Huawei will notice us and take our ideas and answer our questions themselves.
(Make it easier....put which number comment your answering to so we all have a better idea what's going on)
Keep it friendly guys remember these are mine and others thoughts.... none of us are implying that these thoughts are right.
By the way... I am a Note 9 user but I am really excited of the potential of Huawei been the ultimate custom ROM brand.
Official Pixel Experience is pretty much nill on Huawei Devices. I see the Honor 10 has
again been dropped.
When the Ban is lifted Huawei will lock the bootloader again no doubt.
they have changed their mind, they will not unlock the BL for the Mate 30.
the only place this device will sell well is China, they are screwed pretty much everywhere else.
I just bought one in shanghai yesterday. Its a very neat and fast phone. especially the 40w charging is cool. you can watch percentages go up...
I asked for the 5G version but i was told its not availbale and should come November. I was wondering though if its already built in and just needs a software patch... like back then when Nvidia was reducing performace on Graphic cards by disabling shaders by firmware...

I would say most likely it works, as the China version covers pretty much all the network.
You could find out the specs from their website and check if the LTE bands covers T-Mobiles. It works on Bell's network though.

I am in TX, I got Mate 30 Pro from China, and it works with T-mobile showing "4G" icon. The speed test result is like to my old iPhone 6.
By the way, I have 2 sim card, one is China Union (works on AT&T's network) which support VoLTE, the other is T-Mobile which does not.

I was trying to find a thread about the bootloader being unlocked on this phone and couldn't find one. I came across this video on YouTube where this guy turns on his phone and says his phone unlocked. He doesn't say how he did it but I'm thinking someone might want to contact him and ask him how he did it. About 2 minutes in he shows this

Most likely a review unit like others have had, release software dosnt have OEM unlock option in developers, if something comes of the int. Version we may be able to get rebranding but has yet to be seen
He commented about it being a devkit under the comment by Markus Haier here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5pxYxPSbl_s and said he was going to make a video on it but still nothing.
@o012 Well my P30-Pro (VOG-L09) has OEM unlocking under developer options but haven't tried unlocking.
All works in canada except certain banking apps google backup netflix google pay androis assistant needs to be rebooted everytime. Rest all works fine including google photo backup
Has anyone installed a custom ROM and TWRP to it yet.
Could a Gapps package help the issues? Gapps include all the google services and system setting to keep google stable and updating.
Think Gapps could be installed via the phones built in bootloader??.
Google PlayStore compatible ?
Can be sideloaded the Google Playstore APK ? thanks
I'm asking because 2 different YouTuber reviewers reply with opposite answers:
Izami Gadget replies: Hi. Yes. Can install it with no problem. Same as another china phone that comes without GMS. can sideload the play store APK without a problem
Elsegood Michael replies: Not on the Chinese version no. You’ll have to wait to see if it’s released globally in the next couple of months
I'd like to know the same thing. Have ordered one from China. Should be with me by Tuesday (UK).

yeah. i hate this. its unbelievable how bad reviewers are these days.
from what I understand:
yes. you can side-load the Play Store. i've seen the Play Store installed on the phone.
unfortunately, you can download Gmail for example, but you cannot sign-into Gmail once you open the app.
thats why people are saying no Google Services.
thats how i understand it, hope it clears some things up for you.
also, you should look up all the ways to get Google Services on Huawei and Honor devices.
search "huawei honor google services".
people with these devices without Google Services shipped have been using a workaround for at least 2 years now.
some real capable people out there.

Question where did you purchase your Honor Magic V from? I am looking to purchase mine soon and looking for reputable buyer and faster shipping.
Have you tried these two versions below. I remember when I had my Mate X2 I had installed it using the below methods.
GMS Tutorial-
and Google Play Protect -
well that sucks.. I also saw one of the review videos where the lay store was installed but it would quit when you tried to open.. Its a deal braker since I need some work related apps. Will keep my oppo find n...
Yes I used the same on my mate x2. Using the above method you can install from the backup but when opening the G (lzplay.helper) it doesn't install gms just error.
I purchased mine from Trinity Electronics Hong Kong. I've used them a couple of times and they are very quick at replying and sending. Like any 3rd party seller there is a mark up on price. I don't mind paying a bit extra for peace of mind.
how are push notifications ?
