Hello! I just got an unlocked at&t surround phone for christmas. I use simple mobile from t-mobile. The phone makes calls and sends texts but will not connect with the 3g internet or send MMS. I have already been through older posts here looking for an answer. everyone talks about an app in the marketplace called connection setup. I have seached the htc market place and the general marketplace and i cannot find it. Is there any other way? or am i possibly not looking in the right place?
Any help you can give me is welcome! if i cant fix the phone i will have to sell it and i dont want to I love it!
thank you!!

You won't be able to connect to 3G on that phone running T-Mobile. They use different 3g bands and it is hard coded into the hardware. As for mms you need to make sure your apn is correct
So it will only work with AT&T?

Yup or one of the carriers outside the US that use the same bands

Custom ROM for HTC Mondrian (Surround)
I have tried using the custom ROMs by DFT and Ansar, but the Intrinsic ROM seems to be the best. It has 7.10.7740.16 version and Internet Sharing. TouchExplorer and Registry Editor work on it. I have only two issues - TouchExperience is throwing an unhandled exception error and i am not able to update to 7.10.8107.79 through Zune.
An update - i didn't want to continue using a ROM which doesn't allow updates, so i tried Ansar's RUU_Surround_Cingular_US_4.03.502.01_Radio_5.69.09.05a_22.50.50.21U_NT_Mango_7720 again.
Again, Zune did not show the 7740 and 8107 updates, but i was able to install them using WP7+Update+Cab+Sender.
So i finally have what i was looking for - an unlocked phone which can be upgraded to tha latest os version.
Almost ideal, except for one key ingredient missing - Internet Connection Sharing. I've tried DiagProvXMLv0.91_IS and it has resulted in the internet sharing option showing under Settings. However, i get an error msg 'Internet sharing isn't enabled yet' when i try to turn on the feature.
Hoping that Ansar will read this post and provide a solution soon!
Hi guys. I have an android japanese phone called 007SH
The thing is that it's sim locked (only way to use it is by hypersim, which would be something that goes WITH the simcard inside the phone, and provides unlock, but it has many disadvantages).
The Sim lock is located in the NAND, so the traditional method of introducing a number to unlock it won't work here. There's currently a temp-root for this phone, so one can access the system files. The thing is that I do not know anything about that, so I wanted to ask you if you can help me with this: you can tell me which file or files have the lock, so that I can send them to you, and you can modify them so that the lock no longer exists. ... I'm asking this because there IS a unlock for this phone, but it's not something you can just download: you've gotta send the phone to Russia and the unlocking service costs 150 dollars :/ . I'm writting this because not many people have this phone, but I'm in a japanese phones forum and everyone is discussing about this, so I thought it would be nice to share this to the experts (you, the XDA developers community) to ask for help.
so yeah, if you can help me I'd appreciate it ^_^
I've learned a little more and have more idea about the location of the sim-lock. Now there's currently full root for the phone, and NAND has been unlocked. I've searched through the internet and apparently the sim-lock is located in the radio folder of the NAND memory. People in a forum say that Qualcomm's NAND code is not particularly unique or difficult to understand; but I have no idea about that ... so I was wondering if I could upload the radio folder of my phone, so that someone who wants to help me can discover the sim-lock, and remove it (and then send it to me again )
please someone reply, or else I'll feel that I'm talking alone xD
007sh unlocking

Well, Android doesn't have 100% full integration with the numeric keypad. I mean, you can use it for SMS, calls and emulators in which you can set the keys, but there aren't a lot of apps which nativly uses the keypad. Anyways, it's a good phone. The bad thing is: I desperatly need the SIM-Unlock because the hypersims I have doesn't work correctly, I lose signal and can't recover so I have to "CPR" the phone (I have to remove the SIM+Hypersim, put the SIM in a normal phone, wait till it gets signal, and then put the SIM+Hypersim again in the japanese phone). The problem is that, I don't know why, but if I want to use my japanese phone, I must do that every 20 minutes: obviously that's not an option for me, and for now I'm using my old Nokia N82 till somebody finds the Sim unlock.
Hi,
i got a 007SH as well.
like to check how do you input space using the hardware keypad?
i pressed and hold #, it will input # and a space.
how can i just input space without the #?
Thanks!

This thread is about the "star one X2" or X2 mtk6575 phone.
It's one of the cheapest android 4.0 Chinese phone with mtk6575
As there is no topic about this phone I will start one !
1) The phone
star one X2 mtk6575 review
System
OS Android 4.0.3
CPU MTK6575
ROM 4GB
RAM 512MB
Screen
Display Size 4.0Inch
Type Capacitive touch screen
Resolution 800 x 480 pixels
Screen Color 260K Colors
It's a pretty good phone for the price (around 150 Usd). Battery last quite long, it's fluid.
I bought mine on antelife http://www.antelife.com/free-shipping-newest-x2-mtk6575-4-0-inch-screen-800-480-android-smartphone-with-os-android-4-0.html
Great website, with great customer service !
If you want any info, just ask
2) Usb drivers
I tried some drivers for mtk6575 but didn't work so I installed wandoujia
it is a Chinese program that almost recognize every Chinese phone and install drivers for it !
As I do not have 10 posts on the forum I cannot share the link but google it.
I uninstalled it after because I do not understand chinese, but it seems to be a great program, with which you can install lots of app (chinese app) that are not on the market.
3) Root
The easiest way to do it is with superoneclick !
It didn't work for me (stuck at step 7) so i used another tool that I found on these forum for the zopo 100
i had to restard my computer several time and launch again and again but it finally worked
Hope this thread can help some people
Hope customs ROM will arrive !
4) Stock firmware !
thanks to antelife.com customer service here is a link with stock IMG and some tools !!

Star B79
Here it is:
http://www.chinaphonereview.com/star-b79
I have one! I really liked, but asked to waranty switch because the GPS was not working well ... had an error 5-200 m. : (Sometimes was ok, sometimes was 200m of the place where i was ...
Someone with the same problem?
Any ideas?!
Thanks
it's not the same model in fact,
not the same screen and not the same camera
One the X2 i do not have any pb of gps
Is there any topic about Star B79
no, but b79, x310e and X2 are similar phones. So we can group them in the same topic or just create another one, as you wish.
It it is for your gps pb here is what I have :
- geolocalisation and maps work well and fast with data (3g or wifi)
- if I turn off data if have no geolocalisation but I can load the map (even with the gps off so I don't really understand)
Greaves,
Regarding 2) USB Drivers:
There's now an English-language version of Wandoujia. It's called SnapPea and is available for free at SnapPea.com
Would love to hear your feedback--I know that's been a pain point for users with Chinese Android phones!

Greaves Hello, nice to meet you!
Today I purchased this product should reach me next week!
In the meantime, I found your comments and hope you continue to add news to your phone!
Have you found any problem? Or does it? For me it is important that the GPS works perfectly, you've got to try it with some browser? I noticed you added a link where there is the possibility to update the rom already, tell me what improvements to make? Have you already tested? Aspect of your news

i've just received this great phone.
I'm satisfied with the performance, screen and the touch pad.
I just wonder is there any official firmware/custom rom available yet?
If i'm not asking too much it will be great if there is a repartition fix also.
hello,
I have no pb with the phone except that the gps needs my 3g to be on to work (I use google maps).
The link is not for an update rom but for the rom that is already on your phone. It should help to do custom rom but as I don't know how to do it I don't know if there will be any

This means that the GPS does not work offline? It means that if you install a browser such as sygict Mobile with integrated maps, does not work? If so is a big problem!

I got my Star One X2 last week, have exactly the same problem. I put Route66 (Navigaiton + maps) from andoid market its an offline navigator I just found. I put the same software on a Samsung Galaxy s2. Put both devices on the dashboard on the highway. Turned off WiFi and Data. It seemed equal for a while both were navigating the same way, but as soon as I passed a small village, the X2 would get out of track and show me in the woods or off-roads, while I was driving 130km/h, but the S2 continued just fine. It got back on track after the village was gone. Inside the town, it would jumb to different roads. So there has to be a problem with manucaturing. I just sent an request to the eBay seller asking for repair.....
Did you get any feedback on yours?

See my comment below, it works offline, but there is a precision problem.
I think its a hardware problem... i got a new unit and the problem is the same!
The solution is keep the internet connection off (gprs, 3G, wifi) and it works ok. The problem my apear again when you receive o phone call... the solution is turn The gps connection off and on again...
This is my Expirience... any ideas or solutions?

Thank you, my x2 has problems with the GPS, the wrong position 2-500 m.
In addition, each time using the GPS, after work with difficulty, almost blocked for 5 minutes. I'm going to contact the vendor for help, but if you could solve with a cooked rom and instructions for assembly, it would be great! (sorry I'm a little more than a rookie)
Dear all hello,
I have very lilttle experience so your help / advice regarding this issue would be highly appreciated.
I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 (N8020) bought here in Greece. When I saw it a store, the dialer / caller app was visible and clerk told me I could make calls from it as it 3g/4g. But to my surprise, when i bought it I realised no Dialer / caller app is visible. If I go to apllications menu in settings I can see it there as "disabled" but I am not allowed to Enable it.
Could you please give me some advise on how to overcome this?
Do I have to flash?
Please Note I have rooted my phone with Framaroot 1.6.1 and i have installed superuser PRO by CF.
Thank you very much in advance.
I believe thsi will be something very simple but as I said I am clueless...
No one???

Tips for a pleasant XDA:
Search before asking. Someone has likely already asked.
Spell your words completely, and use punctuation. It confuses people when you use "u" and "ur" and "dat", or when you wrongly use "there/their/they're/your/you're".
Be nice. Don't be rude, just move on to another post without leaving a comment. We are not 7 years old.
And PLEASE, do not ask for the "best" anything. We all have our preferences.
