[HOW-TO] - Enable GSM phone calls on your S-OFF Flyer :) - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Prerequisite:
1) 3G Flyer
2) S-Off (get yours from Alpharev soon!)
3) Root
Using root explorer or your favorite text editor edit the build.prop file under /system/build.prop and edit the following lines:
Code:
ro.ril.reject.cs.ss.enabled=0
ro.ril.reject.mo.ussd.enabled=0
ro.phone.function=1
To enable Bt Headset profile change the following:
Code:
ro.bt.profiles = 4270403
service.brcm.bt.ag_supported = 1
Save your changes and reboot your device. Look under the programs menu you will see the phone app you will now be able to make and receive calls.
Tested on a 3G UK unlocked flyer using an AT&T SIM.
EDIT: now with full BT support!!
Enjoy!

Aha, i was just looking for that, awesome, thanks!

---

Now someone please find out to enable the FULL market for us. Changing simply the fingerprint does not work!

---

Updated post to include full BT support!

Hello clubtech,
Can this be done with just temp-root? Since /system/build.prop is the only file we need to edit.
Thanks.

---

Nope. I tried it and it didn't catch. must be S-off.

---

Just out of curiosity, would a modification of this work on the view? I realize that our plans don't include it but it would be nice to mess with.

This is unlikely because the changes made in the said config file:
1. Cannot be saved and
2. When you reboot, root is lost.
S-Off is what we now need. Indeed, fingers crossed.

I am sure that BT part would work the View,a s for call - it might.

works but a little delayed but great find

---

with temp root:
adb shell cat /system/build.prop > /data/build.prop
adb pull /data/build.prop
open pulled build.prop with notepad++ or whatever text editor you like, make changes suggested by OP. save file
adb push build.prop /data/build.prop
reboot .. and done
theory says that if a different build.prop file is in /data will overwrite the one from /system (same principle applies to apps from /system that when are updated in market new versions are installed to /data and system uses the ones from /data instead of ones from /system)

---

Did not work for me.
I changed both build.prop in /system and /data but after reboot both of them back to default!

Did the settings hold/work on your temp root Flyer?

---

Great work, another reason for me to get the HTC Evo View.. informed mods for portal viewing

---

Can't edit build.prop this file read only status. how to change to write status?

Do you have root rights?
Have you installed the SDK on your PC?

It won't work with temp root only. You need permanent root and s-off. The reason being is that the phone is designed to (when s-on) check on boot if any changes have been made to system files. If they have been made, it will automatically revert them back to the original file. That is why "temp-root" won't persist between reboot, and this is the reason I believe it is not working for you. When you reboot the phone, it is just reverting the changes you made to the build.prop file. Sorry, but I think that you will have to way until AlphaRev releases their s-off method.
Once they release their s-off method it should work.
