Ok Normally I dont Start new threads but I thought this might prove useful to us Flashaholics.
From Monday through 3pm (GMT) on Tuesday, Oct. 6th, Microsoft My Phone service will be unavailable while they upgrade the system.
Mods Sorry if you dont feel this belongs in the rom thread.
OK, I'll bite.
What's this thread supposed to be about?
If you phone depressed and need some Prozac because of the impending downtime?

No it was just a heads up to those that rely on My phone for restoring after a rom flash. So when it doesnt work Some will not blame the rom. You are more then welcome to close or even delete it if you think it is not wanted or needed.
Microsoft MyPhone (http://myphone.microsoft.com) will be down for about two days because of updates and stuff.
If you use MyPhone for backing up and restoring your contacts, you might want to hold off on flashing for that time period.
That's all zelendel wanted to say.
Haha, the way this was worded (not very clear, but I knew from the e-mail microsoft sent out....) it seemed like he was letting everyone know that HIS phone service would be down.
Like I stated though... anyone using the MyPhone service should have recieved an e-mail with this information.

Yes Sorry it was not very clear, I reread it this morning and Fixed it.
Mod edit: Thread closed. This is borderline, if not explicitly, fraud.
The technique involves wrongfully claiming that you are a student at a particular community college--one, in which you do not intend on taking any classes. It is unethical, and really mean to use the college in such a manner.
If the OP wants to make another thread explaining how people with .edu mail accounts (college professors, students, and staff) can perform a free developer unlock, that is fine. Just please do not ever write about how to defraud an educational institution. That's just unethical.
If your thread was deleted, it's probably not without a reason. What you're explaining in this tutorial seems illegal to me, this might be the problem. I doubt if mods will keep this thread alive...

Of course. It's fraud. You're not a developer and you're not a student of said university.
The problem with this is that you are claiming to be something/someone that you are not (a student). This is a procedure that is open to everyone if you register as a developer ($99 a year).

An interop unlock isn't illegal as you may do with your phone whatever you want. It may void your warranty though, get over it.
This is fraud, and fraud is illegal, for sure.

This is not a interop unlock in the first place. Its the lite version of the dev unlock. You can sideload three apps with it. And as most people said I guess its illegal. Don't forget that your live id is sent to Microsoft during this step.
Sent from my Lumia 800 using Board Express
Thanks, worked, and I have installed 3 apps...
I'm at the last step. I can't get dreamspark to verify the school. It says, "Sorry, the e-mail which you have submitted is not a valid e-mail at Arizona College." Any ideas? I can log into my edu account just fine.

What is so illegal about it? Generating a SSN code? Well, I suppose it would be perhaps illegal too if you entered a transposed number, mistakenly?
The guy created a nice tutorial so hats off to him! Nice that you shared your knowledge. It worked flawlessly.
Cant seem to get registered.
Might be since I live in Europe and I'm a few hours ahead and its night there at the moment. But if not.. I've waited for over an hour now for the registration to complete. Not succeeded to login yet.
Will test once every hour for a few hours and report back.

Hi.
I just noticed that all my calendar events prior to april 12th and right back to june 2011 when I first got the phone have been deleted from my phone, but all other events onwards from april 12th are still on the phone. A sigh of relief when I noticed they're all still there online in google calendar, ie, all events from june 2011 to now. Not sure what happened, but, I did reinstall calendar sync today (before I'd noticed this) because it was partially deleted due to a virus I had a week ago. I say partially because it was still syncing but it took longer and I could tell something wasn't right. It had been effectively uninstalled in control panel, so that's why I reinstalled it.
So I connected my phone, manually synced google calendar sync app in my taskbar, and although it's updating new events from my phone to google calendar online, it's not transferring the old events from april 12th and before that date from google calendar online back to my phone.
I created a test event today directly in google calendar to see if it would transfer to my phone with sync, it did. So what's up with it not transferring my older events from google back to my phone before april 12th?
Bump
Bump. Let's see how many times I can bump this before someone replies or I get told off.
It's a known issue that Google is doing nothing to fix.
Here's a workaround though.
If that doesn't work, here's another one.
Both found with Google.
(Also, see rule #5. Bumping is seen as pretty annoying around here, and doesn't actually incite people to help you)

Well, yes and no on your last point. It had gone to page 3 first attempt, then was going to page 2 second attempt, so I didn't have much to lose really did I, and 3rd time worked like a charm.

5. Post a message only once.
As a large forum we don't need unnecessary clutter, You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time, it might take a while before you receive an answer.

I'm NOT a moderator. I'm just trying to give you some friendly guidance on forum etiquette. It's not like I reported your post or anything. And in fact, I actually helped you, in spite of my being annoyed by the bumps as I'm sure many others who knew the answer were, and decided not to answer.
If everyone followed the rules, we wouldn't need moderators.

I thanked you for your advice and I'll thank you again. But I don't give a flying **** if you don't like my bumps. If I hadn't bumped my thread (after several hours of it receiving no replies and disappearing into the void), there would have been NO replies, making being a posting member here pretty much useless. Get it? These forums are massive with ludicrous amounts of posts every second pushing others off the page very fast, never to be seen again, so bumps are NEEDED to get noticed. Get off your high horse.
Ah forget it. I'm clearly wasting my time.

Clearly. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that in quite a few of your posts you talk down to members, pretty much patronising them.
"in spite of my being annoyed by the bumps as I'm sure many others who knew the answer were"
Lol, seriously, and my last word on this, drop the wannabe moderator act. You're obviously very knowledgeable on phones and have made many posts. And I'm grateful you linked me to a couple of potentially helpful threads which (contrary to what you think) would not have happened if I hadn't bumped my thread. But, I've been here longer than you and long enough to have seen many threads of mine disappear without any response when there's been no bumping. Noone was going to answer my thread without it being bumped, trust me on that, it had already gone to page 3, so my bumping was not the catalyst for why you think I got no answers. Editing my post would have made no difference, it wouldn't bring it back to page 1, and neither was there any need for me to clarify an already crystal clear description of the issue in my OP. I also help people where I can on other forums where I'm knowledgeable in a field just like you, and I leave the lectures on forum etiquette to those in charge.

Probably because I'm sick of people who don't take the 5 seconds it takes to type their problem into google, and incessantly bump their posts to keep it at the top of the forum. But you're right. I should take a step back and not let such things bother me anymore.

While I see how those options would do it, I chose to just purchase Calengoo... I works great and I'm lazy so I don't want to have to do the export/import thing or flip back and forth changing the date. (I did notice that if it's a recurring appointment on the calendar those show beyond the 30 day limit.)
hopefully this is something Google will change at some point. I just don't understand their reasoning for not offering us the choice on how much calendar data to sync.
Just thought I'd add another solution to this problem.
Found it here:
https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/calendar/BG6UUCLcQZ4/J7Zc-l4X_9gJ
Steps:
Go to Google Calendar in your browser (DESKTOP)
Go to Settings (top right cog)
Calendars
Export calendars
Extract the .ics file from the saved zip file
Import calendar (select the .ics file)
That's it, it shouldn't create duplicates, but the calendar on your phone should now show the old events.
Simple but effective

Good job. Much thanks! This one did it!
Didn't work for me. Not sure why these work for some and not for others (like me)... could it really be because of ICS vs JB etc?
Anyway, I'm on a HTC Sensation, JB 4.2.2, and it would be very helpful if I could get important business schedule information from 6 months ago to 8 years ago from google online calendar into my phone, and I can't, and that's just retarded. So if anyone has suggestions on ways to do it, your input would be helpful. Thanks.
-Ryan.
update: well, it took a while but it actually worked... Yesterday, I exported, imported, synced, waited, synced again, and still nothing nothing. Then I posted to this thread. Then today, I read on the calengoo site that they recommend this 'trick' also, so I figured goddaammmit why didn't it work for me? So I looked at my calendar, and lo & behold... data back as far as i care to look! HOORAY!
I can star Rate ***** but not add comment on Android market
(Not that important) but
I cant seem to add a comment if i rate an app
I can star Rate ***** but if i add a comment the s3 greys out the 'ok' button
What is that about
Have i been banned form commenting on android market?
Not unless you did something very bad but even if you did, I'm sure you would have been notified earlier if you would have been banned from Google.
I have a Rezound but found this thread in search. I have the same exact problem as you. This didnt happen until after I got the OTA ICS update last night. Can't leave a comment as the Ok box grays out as soon as I start typing.. as soon as I delete all my text, OK can be clicked..whats up with that?

I solved it by typing in both boxes. It's not 100% obvious at first.
Title and comment boxes need to be filled for the ok button to work.
Hope this helps

I liked the old design better. Just didnt catch my eyes...thanks again for that. I never got an answer over in the Rezound forum...more like flames :-B
If you your developer account suspended do you still get paid the remaining money in your checkout account. See i just got a warning and wanted to know as i am worried ill get suspended so if i get suspended do you think ill get paid my remaining money for that month. Its very odd as ive asked other devs to look at my description wich is what google said was in violation but no one can see anything wrong with it,
Thanks in advance.
pease help id really like to know.
If you account is closed no you do not get what money is in processing
Wayne Tech Nexus
But should you not get the money as its in your checkout account therefore if my ending balance is on say 100 euro should i not get that money?
anyone else no anything about this?

The min your account is suspended or closed everything is frozen.
They said if i will have my account suspended if i get another warning but it still dosnt seem right that google can steal your money, especially since they wrongly suspend some devs.

Did you not read the TOS you agreed to. If google suspends your account they have proof that you broke their rules.
The thing is i didnt break their rules as far as anyone can tell so thats why i would be annoyed if i got suspended.

Here thanks for looking.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...N0dWRpb3MuZ29vZ2xlbm93Y2FyZHN1aXVjY3dza2luIl0.
Well other then this (10. 10. Click the menu button again and hit Lock Widgets/Hotspors to ON. Note: Do not hit Save turn lock widgets ON.) I dont really see too much bad with it unless all of your listings have the same set of instructions which should be included to be shown after download maybe.
Oh well guess there is nothing i cfan do. Hopefully they dont take the app down from the play store or ban my account, thanks so much for the help.
I would deff fix that one typo I mentioned. I mean other then that I saw no issues but I am not google. If they warned you and you did not change anything you may want to do a complete over haul of your posting.
