My display went out on my EVO LTE over the weekend, everything on the phone still works including the touch (can't see what I'm touching). I have a new phone on order, but would like to be able to retrieve my SMS/MMS, is there anyway I can do that? My phone is not rooted.
Thanks
Mike

can anyone else connect their HP touchpad to their phone via Bluetooth I have an evo 3d and neither of them find each other
I have an Epic 4G running SFR 1.2 and I can't get either device to find the other. It doesn't matter what setting I have type of device I have the touchpad look for.
Anyone else have luck hooking their phone up to their touchpad running android?
Bump - anyone had any luck? Can't get my TP to see my SGS2 or vice-versa.

I've got an... just check the sig.... anyways I was able to get the TP and the Inspire to pair but thats it, no calls, no texts. I didn't spend to much time on it cause the Inspire is actually recognized as a Desire HD (cause of the ROM) and thats on the list of not working. Good luck!
If you have Preware downloaded, Download an app called freeTether. This app allows you to make the TouchPad visible via bluetooth. Then on your phone find the TouchPad and pair it. Then accept the the link on the Touchpad and your good to go.
PS- you can also get the text messaging to work on the Touchpad with most Android phones if you use this method. You just need to make sure you allow messages to be sent via bluetooth in your phone. It should be in settings under bluetooth advance or something like that!

Texting works on my Desire HD. I get an issue with calls but I have yet to really dig in to it to try and get it working. It triggers the phone dialer but then drops saying the device doesn't support audio. Will post again if I get phone audio working.
Worked here, thanks.
Same issue with calls, it initiates it and then gives up. Texting works fine, and it appears to be receiving files from my SGS2 although I can't see where it's saving them. (EDIT: It saves them into the /tmp folder)
Now. Any way to get the TouchPad to access the WiFi connection of the SGS2 via either USB or Bluetooth somehow? (My SGS2 connects to the office Enterprise network, the TouchPad won't despite several hours of hackery to try and get it going ).

If you think about the number of phones that are out there and people only generally post when there's an issue, I wouldn't worry about exchanging it. I've had two phones with no issues.

today I backed up my iphone SMSs and loaded them with sms backup and restore... everything went fine, but then my phone reset and there is a circle with a line through it where the data connection icon should be and says there is no sim installed.... I also cant dial out, but I received a call on the way home from work.
trying to open message app on the phone gives me a time out message and asks me to kill or wait. then the phone just freezes. I'm looking everywhere for a solution... first time android user so this is driving me a little bit nutty.
on my iphone I would just restore firmware... I guess thats what I should try here?

Have you done any type of changes to the phone like rooting, etc.? Anything you can think of that might have caused it or changed something right before it happened?
No, I haven't rooted or anything. All I did was download a few basic apps and then try to transfer my data to the new phone. I ordered a jig and don't want to do anything until it arrives.
I have solved the data issue, somehow the sim came slightly out of place. Once I reseated everything was good. is the sim slot that finicky?
i also did a factory reset and started from scratch and worked out the issue with the text messages. I appreciated your willingness to help a noob, thank you.
So since I've been using tablets since the xoom came out I always wanted to be able to send texts through my tablet but have them send with my phone's number. At first there was syncSMS, which was pretty good but required drop box to sync up messages. Then I started using Text tab which would pair the devices with BT. The app was ok, the interface wasnt that great but it did the job. I just bought Tablet Talk from the market and I have to say I LOVE this app, not only does it give you the option to connect via BT or Wifi(must be on same wifi network) but the interface is much better than text tab. Plus you can control your mobile phone. Meaning, if you want to call someone it has a dialer and when you dial from your tab it will place the call on your handset, you can even activate speakerphone on your mobile phone. Granted you need to have your phone close for the calling stuff and I am wondering if you connect the two via BT if you can actually use your tab to talk(I havent tested on BT yet) but I think it's still pretty neat. And when you get a call it displays the caller id number on your tab so no more having to pull the phone out of your pocket to see who's calling.
I have been using it over wifi since last night and havent even seen it eat much battery at all and I left it running all night. Anyway, I would HIGHLY recommend this app... It's the best Tab/Phone SMS app I've seen so far
ok so no audio routing when connected via BT, but it's still a pretty cool feature
When I get a call it shows me who is calling on my tab, and also rings on the tab. You can answer the call from the tab but it activates the handset, but as I said in the OP from the tab you can also activate the speakerphone on your phone
Try...
Tablet Talk
Routes calls and texts.

it routes the audio as well?
edit: My bad... that's the app I have.. lol I dont know why I thought it was Tablet Text. I dont see a way to route the audio though. It just activates the call on the phone
Is there a way for it to recognize the hotspot app on your phone as the wifi network? I have the hotspot on my phone enabled..but it still ask me to connect to a wifi network.
Have you tried the Sidecar app? It is available in the Play market.

hmm not sure.. I havent tried.. but why not just connect via bluetooth?
I haven't tested it extensively, but it definitely looks like a good app. I will be testing it more once I start making progress on installing the tablet in the car.
I bought it the other day and wished I did the trial first. It does work well, but my phone seems to disconnect often from Bluetooth. So then I have to manually turn the screen on and reconnect.
Guess I need to fool with the settings on my phone some more. It's very useful, except for this little quirk I'm having.

hmm that's odd. Email the dev, I emailed him a couple of questions and he replied pretty quickly. The first time within hours of my email, the 2nd one a day or two after.
It seems to be an ics issue on the Evo 3D leaks. All of them have this issue for me. That's why I think I need to play around in my wifi settings a bit. Thanks for the suggestion though

I have a Sprint 4G LTE phone that a user dropped and shattered the screen. Now the screen doesn't display anything. The user contacts and text messages need to be extracted from this phone
As a preface; its a stock phone and USB debugging is not enabled (tried ADB and can't enumerate). Tried DroidExplorer and cannot see the device either.
I've already grabbed the files from SD card
How do I go into the phone memory and grab other files?
is there any other way to look at the content on the phone?
Sprint support is ofcourse useless and they cannot provide any further support
any guidance is much appreciated

well first of all, i will ask are you certain the device is even turning itself on? if nothing is being displayed, how do you know it is powering up? could be more than a busted screen, basically....
I would say hook it up to your t.v via a mhl cable

Hello. Im having problems with my Evo. 3g data isnt working. virgin mobile refused to help me because the guy i was talking to is either untrained or an idiot. but anyways i just activated my phone again after it was cancelled. i didnt have it activated for over 5 months or so so it got cancelled and i was provided a new number. before i activated it on virgin mobile again i was thinking of going to metro pcs for their 40 dollar everything plan. but didnt because i was unsure. I did change settings in qpst to match the settings of metro pcs phone settings/data settings and when i changed my mind i tried to flash it back to virgin mobile i messed up a lil and had to do the ##786#, menu, reset thing, to get my virgin mobile original settings back, so now the phone is activated but data is messed up. it dosent load pages or work period. the 3g arrows flash every once in a while but then stop. and i am on meanrom v4.5. just flashed back from jellybean the liquidsmooth rom. i am not quite sure what the problem is but i think the data settings are incorrect. when i go into ##data# settings in data profile it shows ""[email protected] . it seems everything else is mostly correct as far as i know. so if anyone can help me at all with data settings or anything else i would be very appreciated.and yes i tried updating profile/prl stuff and nothing. but thank you for any help at all.
Do a google search for flashing phones to virgin mobile. Does not really matter what phone the flash instructions are for as long as it is an android phone. Then compare the settings to the ones you have on your phone and make any changes needed.
Oh and next time before you change anything with qpst make a backup. With qpst you can read all the info from your phone then back it up tk your pc. Then if you ever need to go back you just open the saved settings and flash them over.

Ya I did that and all of the posts I found have outdated information. I called virgin and they told me to wait 24 hours and the problem will be fixed and that my programming information was correct. I'm not sure if they were telling me the truth or not but I had this problem before and switching to profile 1 fixed everything. This time its not working because profile 0 and profile 1 are exactly the same. I don't know what to do at this point. I was hoping someone with an EVO 3d or EVO V 4g working on virgin mobile could connect to qpst and give me pictures of their exact settings minus their account information and esn/meid numbers whited out. Since VM won't help me the only thing I can do now is ask for help from someone else.
seems like my 3g is working now. i flashed back to liquid smooth kit kat. wierd because i have used meanrom before on my account. so i guess it was meanrom messing things up. thanks tho.
