Hi,
Since I sync my X01HT with my PC outlook,
the phone number is my contacts looks like:
+81 3 12345678.
If I dialed this one directly, I got an error voice message.
The SB cannot recognize "+" sign.
Should I use some software to change this number automatically to:
03 12345678?
By the way, I can use this number well in Taiwan or China.

i don't know if there is any software that can automatically do it for you but you can't dial + when you are making calls from japan and numbers need to be changed to the 03 12345678 format you mentioned. what i did is manually added those in each contact as an alternate phone number so that i can pick and choose the one appropriate depending on where i am.
Try dialing +81312345678 manually, then you will know if it is a problem with your contacts or a total incompatability with the network.

i said that doesn't work when you are calling from japan. you have to apply for the international calling service first if you want to make international calls, but even with that using + plus the country code doesn't work in japan.

Thank you harryk1372 for your suitable comments.
This is why I want to find some soft to change the "+" for me automatically.
One can use "+86" in the China Telecom network.
I tried "dialDTMF", but nothing happened.
I fight this since I am in Japan, but once again, one man against the Japanese bureaucratic world... Anyway things which drives me nuts is that while you have to dial 010 for call, SMS use the international dialing system with +

Now how hard can it be for Japan or SB use an international standard... like this dammed + ?
Or if they love so their uniqueness (their 010) why could not they simply tweak their system to accept both 010 and +

exactly... why the hell they need to use 010 for voice calls when they can accept + for sms. they should consider accepting + for voice as well.
Someone might like to take a look here.
http://www.nicque.com/PQz/
I've been using the generic installation on my X01HT and it's the best work around I've found.
All my contacts from Outlook have full numbers including country codes with "+".
In the Country Code options I have a Japan International setting that adds 010 with the Convert + and remove - options checked.
When I select a Japanese contact, in Japan, I toggle the Int'l Access off to get no country codes.
For a Japan based International call I toggle the Int'l Access on (the country code appears) and then the Int'l Calling to select the Country code option to add 010.
It sounds more complicated than it is, but anyone who has had a call in, cursed they can't copy/paste a number and add 010 etc will find it a blessing.
There is no information on the author so take care, but I don't think it is doing anything malicious.

Hi
I recently purchased an O2 XDA IIi, which is unlocked from O2 and has been hard-reset to remove O2 features.
My SIM works as much that I can make/receive calls and send/receive text messages.
But, to access Internet, Email, MMS etc etc I need the settings for Orange (Ive tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7306 but no luck).
Does anyone have the correct settings please ?
Is there a programme I can download (the type that is pre-installed onto Orange phones) as this may be the quickest solution.
I have tried Orange support on 3 occassions now and whilst they state they dont support non-orange phones they have tried to help - but without success.
Does anyone know if the hard-reset actaully leaves various O2 settings on the phone, which still need sorting.
ANY HELP WOULD BE GOOD !!
Thank You !!!

Hi mate,
Are you on PAYG or Contract?
If your on contract try this :wink:
Daz aka Cadburys Man.
Hi
Im on contract.
The other potential problem is that its an orange sim, orange contract BUT an EQ Virgin tariff (if that makes a difference)
Paul
Mate i can't see that making any difference what so-ever, if it's Orange contract it's Orange contract as far as i'm concerened, unless of course someone can say differently.
Daz.
Hi Daz
Thanks for that - but no luck with it.
Just to check I did things correctly.....
Downloaded it to desktop and bluetoothed it to PDA.
Found it in My Docs and clicked it to load it.
Was that correct procedure ?
Unfortunately, when I try to connect with it I get........
"No modem at above number. To check your connection settings and change them if needed tap settings"
Name = Orange Internet
Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
APN = orangeinternet
User = [blank]
Password = [blank]
TCP/IP = User server assigned IP address
Servers = Use server assigned addresses
Are the the settings that were downloaded ?
Thanks
Paul
Hmmmm thats wierd cos mine works and the settings are same as mine :?
I copied mine using the cradle through activesync but don't think that matters at all as the settings are the same.
Anyone else have a solution or tryed this file sucessfully?
Sorry i couldn't be of more help
Daz.
as i wrote in this post in the other forum then if it's set on auto pick of the o2 network profile it is bound to fail
Rudegar
There is NO mention of O2 anywhere on connections.
I ONLY have Orange Internet set up as described above.
Now.......
someone suggested looking at the External Rom ??
Ive managed to unlock this and need to know where and what I am looking to change ?
..Unless anyone has a full ext rom download i can use to overwrite what i already have ?
MANY MANY thanks

kabayan! i have a Pantech Sky IM-A600S but i can only use it via x-sim card. I was wondering is your unit openline to all networks? If so how did you do it?
I think there are firmware updates on their website but i cant go past the membership stage as their website is written completely in Korean and google translate does not work directly with the page. I managed to download the USB drivers but I need help in downloading the step by step guide on how to update firmware. Anyone?
TIA!
Well
I happpen to us the sky ima650s on sk telecom in korea to upgrade go to the home page isky.co.kr and on the side there should be 2 boxes click the one with the phone picture on it then it would lead u to another page go down until you find pictures of phones click the right button until u find ur vega then click it then clic on something that says 셀프업그레이드(in korean) then when a small popup comes up click the one that has the letters 비회원다운로드(also in korean) then u should get ur upgrade steps popup u would need the serial number under the battery now can anyone build a custom gingerbread rom for ima650s? I could provide any firmware files available just ask at [email protected]
What is the latest android version that you have right now? mine is only froyo. is there any gingerbread update already? BTW, i get the updates using the phones built in update component.
hoping to hear from you, and im wondering, do you know some mods that we can put on our phones?
i need help2
My fone's on froyo and there isn't any sign of gingerbread from pantech for the a650s model nobody has succeeded on flashing gingerbread on pantech devices and they say that it would be impossible unless pantechs reveals their kernel and the new vega racer's bootloader is locked so we don't know how pantech designed the gingerbread anyways the first vega model doesn't have hope achieving official gingerbread upgrade
I just want to ask if you have the sms issue? i cant seem to create sms exceeding 80 characters, in my research, i found out that korea only allows 80 characters via sms and when it exceeds it automatically changes to mms. Did you encounter this?
yes
if it exceeds (i think) 80 characters of letters it will turn to a mms and u'll need the 3g communications connected to send
I just got back from Korea and I'd like to use my phone on AT&T network, but because I cannot see the IMEI, they wouldn't let me. I borrowed the SIM card from the employee, and her SIM came up with a signal and a bit R, which I guess means roaming.
Before I left Korea, I stopped by the SKY service center in Yongsan, Seoul, and I asked them to unlock it so I could use it in Korea. They reflashed it, but I have no idea if it really can work or not.
When I insert my prepaid SIM card into it, nothing happens. No bars, no R.
Has anyone figured out a way to either totally unlock it or to use something like X-SIM with it so I can use the calling function? I don't care at all about data.
Any help would be great, thanks!!!
i buy this phone at 2nd hand, ive got mine already openline. i used globe simcard. about the 80 limit characters in texting, just download chompSms from android market and used it as your default messaging. my only problem on this phone i cant find where to buy accessories in my area (baguio). i need extra battery, wall charger and usb connector. i just found one store selling accessories located in manila.

if you have the device that connects to the proprietary port you can crack that open and look for the pinouts to make your own usb data cable and charger. that is what i did with my unit.

sky a820l 3g locked
Hi id4thomas,
I just got sky very new model, vega lte ex a-820l, from my friend. Everything's fine, but I can't surfing 3g internet(3g lock?), my friend is no problem in LG U+, his SIM came up with a signal with R icon, is there any ways to unlock it with 3g lock?
3G connection
I have 3 Sky phones (A600S, A710K, A690S). The first thing I always do when I reset the phones to factory default is to go to Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Data Settings > Access Point Names then create a new APN by pressing option button (hardware button below the screeen) > New APN. I use Sun so I give it the name "sunbroadband" and the apn "minternet" (without quotes). I then select the apn by pressing the radio button because it is not selected by default. Without a selected APN, the phone will not connect to a 3G network.
Hope this helps.

One does not simply use 3G on A820L by adding the APN. You have to unlock the 3G function. We can do it easily in Vietnam, but now I have no time to translate for you, may be google translate could help

Hi,
I purchased HTC Touch Pro (US Cellular CDMA). I want to use it with Mumbai MTNL Garuda Mobile Phone service in Mumbai, India.
I don't know much of cell phone flashing and reading web pages would like to get this done.
1) How do I check my phone needs what ROM and which one is it already using ? I assume ROM is like BIOS and windows mobile is like win xp os. So installing ROM will not affect windows mobile. do I have to flash rom for a specific carrier\service provider ?
2) How do I check whether my phone in unlocked since this is CDMA and has no sim card ? In ebay ad said it was unlocked.
3) How do I find roms for "mumbai garuda mtnl". You can google the quoted string for information on service provider. I don't see much helpful info on site and the service provider is not helping. It is open to questions if I have any so let me know if you want me to ask them. can one check compatibility between US cellular and MTNL garuda mobile cdma network so I know I can use the phone.
4) Please enumerate high level steps with some pointers for me to follow through the install process.
5) is the handset supporting 3G since I see its network specs as:
Network US cellular:
Dual-band (800/1900MHz), CDMA2000 1xEVDO Rev. A/1xRTT and IS-95A/B voice or data with up to 1.8 Mbps up-link and 3.1 Mbps down-link
MTNL Garuda mobile network is CDMA-1x. Another MTNL 3G Jadoo is 3G (WCDMA, HSDPA).
so compatibility wise can I use the US cellular handset on MTNL ?
CDDMA-1x and CDMA2000 1xRTT are same so I suppose handset should be usable.
6) when switching carrier is it simple as registering your new handset with new carrier ? is there standard process for it like call in their network using some special number and type in your existing number which you have with their network. ex. if I have 20337444 number on MTNL network then on HTC Touch Pro I dial in some special number for MTNL network and then key in my existing 20337444. This will register the ESN on their network and I am all set.
7) the MTNL guy said that first check if dialing *228 gives you MTNL network. If so then go to customer service and get more help. When I dail I don't think it does any thing. It gives 3 beeps and returns to home screen.
Additional info MTNL gave was they use channels primary 185 and secondary 226. I am not sure what these channels mean.
Regards,
i dont beleive you have to flash any specific rom to get your carrier to work, but you will have to google for "carrier cabs" + your provider name to find what will work for you
to see if your phone is unlocked take the back off the phone, pull the battery, and then put the battery back in, hold the volume down button and press power till the phone turns on, i beleive it will say something like "security unlocked" if the phone is unlocked, after you check that just pull the battery and put it back in once again and start up your phone to get back into windows mobile(not holding the volume down button this time)
as far as roms for the mtnl garuda, any rom will work, i reccommend the energyrom, google energyroms.com, cdma seems to be cdma anywhere you are, if it says cdma it should work in theory
your handset will support 3g, the us cellular version of touch pro supports 3g
for the mtnl garuda carrier to support your phone, you will have to see if they will accept your meid or esn under the battery, here in the USA verizon wont accept sprint esns, and vice versa
sorry i cant be more helpful, but hopefully somewhere through this i have helped you, good luck!

thanks for reply. I searched for "carrier cabs mtnl garuda" but no good results.
I learned from specs the model is RAHP800. does it mean that it will not work on MTNL garuda ?
MTNL garuda CDMA carrier cabs
Hi,
can some one provide carrier cabs for MTNL garuda CDMA (no RUIM) along with install instructions. would be nice if you have activation instructions. how do I get *228 to connect me to MTNL network ?
a touch pro 800 is the sprint cdma touch pro, and about the cabs sorry man i have no idea, usually when i call boost mobile to activate a new phone i provide them with my numbers from underneath the battery, and they will give me the msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn, maybe you could call your carrier and ask for the msid and mdn? as far as getting your msl code, as long as you have the microsoft .net cf 3.5 cab installed on your phone you can use a program called "baf msl grabber" to get that code
good luck, hope you figure something out, and if you need anything else feel free to contact me
Do you know anyone else with a TP runnon that same network? Maybe you can get some files from their phone.
the terms you used are new to me like "msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn".
You state "msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn," and use "baf msl grabber" to get that code. The MTNL garuda mumbai service folks I talked to are not willing to give any details. They in fact are just not supporting any handset other than what they provide. Now they are discontinuing new cdma handsets which are not using RUIM card (they say its similar to sim card).
can you guide me to some article which has instructions and explanation of various steps we might take to get things done like ones we have on eHow.com.

I do not know of any such user. can you guide me to simple article which expalins the steps involved in doing any programming / install of cabs etc. I have not much idea about cdma programming.
Regards,
Installing carrier cabs and flashing roms wont make the phone work on the network you want it to. The first thing you need is to change the PRL on the device to one that works with your carrier. This a file file you may be able to download, or get it from someone elses phone who uses the same carrier. After that, you will need to program all your info into it, MDN, ect. Then hopefully your carrier will even allow the ESN on their network. Did you say this was a US Cellular device?
Hi,
I learned from service provider that need to disable PRL and then use programming code so can feed in information. So for US Cellular HTC Touch PRO CDMA (no sim/ruim) can one provide programming code\dial codes ?
Do I need activation code in order to be able to enter into programming mode ?
Here is some reference for it: http://support.sprint.com/support/a...e-vw371511-20090807-140419?&INTNAV=SU:DP:HDIB
I would like to program my phone and when I dial ##778# and make a call it just ends. I am not sure how to enter the progam mode. Please guide.
There isn't a master list or anything like that. I used to flash phones to cricket and the 2 TPs I've flashed from us cellular were problematic. Could have been a coincidence. You need to obtain the PRL.

HTC Touch Pro unlock and program code
Hi,
I dialed ##000000 and it now put me into EPST (Activation Wizard(MSL)) screen. I guess I have made some progress and I see MDN, MSID, Home SID/NID #1.
It seems all sprint code listed here http://www.pcoperative.com/ppc/htc_tp_dial_codes.htm
works just that no need to key in ending # for each code.
Well how to check that phone is unlocked. I dialed ##775 to update PRL and it prompted me for unlock code.
I purchased phone from ebay and the ad mentioned that its unlocked.
is unlock code same as SPC/MSL unlock code ?
I went into bootloader and it shows Security Unlocked.
Why does it prompt me for unlock code when I go to ##775 to update PRL ? what to do so I can disable PRL ?
Few other codes like ##DEBUG and Advanced EPST show me information fine without prompting for any unlock code.
Regards,
You haven't made any progress at all unfortunately, you still need the prl. Any codes you enter that allow you to MODIFY phone settings will require an unlock code.

I need your help.
In Brazil, we turn to within the same state, just typing the phone number. for example, where I live (Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil) is a 34 DDD (Direct Distance Dialing) and where I'm going to call is 34 too, so I type just numbers that I want: 0000-0000
But if I call my mother (tumbiara-Goias, Brazil) DDD is 64 so I have to choose an operator to call (light,12-21,14-CTBC Hi, XX-etc.)
So I have to dial 0XX-34-0000-0000. 0XX: code operator (carrier)
WITH my stock rom, I have no problems, but with the CM7.2 ROM does not recognize the contacts from my address book.
Example: In my address book, my mother's phone is 8123-1528, but when I call her (origin: Uberlândia) I have to dial 021-64-8123-1528, so it does not recognize the contact.
What should I do to the dialer to recognize?
In any other country works so well?

I've found a few new dial codes in the Rogers ROM following the Portico update. Here they are:
Note: All of these codes launch a sub section of the "extras+info" application through its GUID (2377fe1b-c10f-47da-92f3-fc517345a3c0)
Field Test
Code: ##3282# (or ##3282 + call)
Description: This one's not new, offers some statistics on radio. The settings also allow you to change a few things (such as network type, SMS limits, ENS and CMAS RMT).
Component: FTDComponent.dll
Color Variant + Life Time Counter
Code: ##634#
Description: Also not new... Displays the multivariant color (my value is null but yours might be displayed) and life timer. It reads that info from the registry ("Software\OEM\Nokia\Multivariant\Color" and "Software\OEM\Nokia\lifetimecounter").
Component: ColorVariant.dll
Silent Installer Component (no actual title - found a reference to "TestUI" so this may simply be a test)
Code: ##4678255#
Description: Mine does nothing at this time but the code seems to indicate that it monitors for provxml files. The monitoring is actually done by the SilentInstallerServiceAgent (SilentInstallerServiceAgent.dll). It monitors for registry entries pointing to physical provxml files at "SOFTWARE\OEM\Nokia\SIAgent\Multivariant" and "SOFTWARE\OEM\Nokia\SIAgent\Tier3". It also monitors the physical folder "C:\Programs\CommonFiles\OEM\Public\PreloadedApps\tier3Apps". When new provxml files are detected, it executes them (I haven't seen any indication so far that it'll do anything besides file copy instructions).
Component: SilentInstallerComponent.dll
extras+info (nothing displayed)
Code: *#07# or ##07#
Description: It gives a completely blank screen. The code is purposely written to keep all elements on the main page to a "Collapse" visibility (meaning hidden). But all the information that would be normally displayed when launching the "extras+info" application is in fact populated.
Component: Regulatory.dll
There's one last dial code that is in theory coded into the phone but the ROM doesn't trigger the action (it's not part of the OS support dial strings):
Product Support Tool (no actual title)
Code: N/A (can possibly be launched through an NFC tag if specifying a "DialString" argument with a of value "778" - I ordered some NFC tags to try it out)
Description: Because I haven't been able to run this app yet, I'm only speculating based on a quick code review... Allows you to view and modify some core cellular settings. You'll be prompted to enter an SPC (security code) before proceeding into certain (if not all) screens.
Component: ProductSupportTool.dll

Note: All of these codes launch a sub section of the "extras+info" application through its GUID (2377fe1b-c10f-47da-92f3-fc517345a3c0)
Field Test
Code: ##3282# (or ##3282 + call)
Description: This one's not new, offers some statistics on radio. The settings also allow you to change a few things (such as network type, SMS limits, ENS and CMAS RMT).
Component: FTDComponent.dll

On my AT&T 920 all that does is show my phone number.

I have no idea. I'll need to look at the code a little more closely. The issue is that I can't run it right now; unless I find a way to enable Interop capabilities for third party applications (or sign my app as a second party - OEM - application). Or, if I get it to work with NFC tags (which apparently, were shipped yesterday)... And even if I launch the application with the NFC tags, I still need the password.
For each component I listed, they all have a native code back-end; the front-end is in .NET (non-obfuscated so very easy to interpret) but the back-end (where in some cases - such as the Product Support Tool - most of the code resides) is in C++ (harder to interpret). The Product Support Tool reads "items" from the C++ dll and populates a key-value type list. I'll need to disassemble and analyse the back-end C++ component to better understand what kind of items it's reading. The SPC code check is also done in here so I may be able to figure out the algorithm used to check the code and/or what static values it relies on to validate it.

That's interesting... Anyone else only get their phone numbers while doing ##3283# ? I've read a lot of people are able to enable 4G on some of the RM821 (international variant of the Lumia 920) through the settings in the "field test" component which means they get more than just their phone number.
Product Support Tool (no actual title)
Code: N/A (can possibly be launched through an NFC tag if specifying a "DialString" argument with a of value "778" - I ordered some NFC tags to try it out)
Description: Because I haven't been able to run this app yet, I'm only speculating based on a quick code review... Allows you to view and modify some core cellular settings. You'll be prompted to enter an SPC (security code) before proceeding into certain (if not all) screens.
Component: ProductSupportTool.dll

778 is the code for PST, which should, in theory, allow you to modify settings related to the radios. I entered ##778+call and got a "Service tools" menu to open, but there is nothing available to select.

If I dial ##778 and call, it actually places a call.

Odd. Have you updated your device?
Code for MDN?
Hi,
Can anyone help with a code to change MDN? I've got the wrong one from a temporary sim used when setting up the phone. And now I can't change it. It's annoying as this number is carried through to the main dialler.
Thanks!

It works on my AT&T L920. Are you using the stock dialer?

I must have pressed something wrong, or spaced, it works on mine too.
Following 1308 update, it appears ##3282 +call no longer works for field test.
Anyone confirm?

confirmed here too. I've seen posted a few other places. I've tried different variations and I can't get it to work. It come up with a screen that shows ussd and then my number or says something went wrong. Would like this back or find another way to toggle lte.

Nokia tells me to ask AT&T and AT&T tells me to ask Nokia. I had both techs on the line, but neither one knew anything about the codes or why we couldn't disable LTE from Cellular settings. Thinking of flashing a different firmware if that lets you control the LTE. I looked into the the development section a little, but not sure yet if that is a solution.
Am I understanding it correctly that value in ##634# Color Variant + Life Counter depends on Registry file, so if you flash a firmware for Red unit, Color Variant will say Red and if yellow it will say yellow.
Is this right?
So basically the phone depends on Product Code as every firmware has different code.
I flashed back to the AT&T 1249 ROM so I could have the field test option back. Until there is a way to enable field test again, I guess I'll stick with this. I looked at the other threads here, but there doesn't seem to be a way to flash to another ROM and have it work on AT&T.
Duds another solution???? thats is a ****... i can't flash but the 4G LTE Works sooooo ban here.
