[Q] Build number not showing - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got a Desire HD with Cyanogen and in settings > info ... I don't see the build number. I tried using those secret codes (*#*#1111#*#* and family) but they do nothing.
What's wrong? And how can I get the build number?
PD: I just saw that I have term emulator, maybe I could get the build number from there?

4.5.1-134_DFP-1251
I hope someone can help me out, thx alot in advance
there are serveral ways:
1. you pay a "service" to calculate your unlock code by giving them your imei, country and net-provider
2. you can have a look at the links in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464645
-root your phone
-install cm7 (which of course i would only do after reading a LOT of stuff here in this forums of course)
-install the software from the external links
-run it
both ways are somewhat risky and you might have a chance to loose some money (1. way) or your phone (2.)
if you have not done it already i would also recommend some searching. there are quite some topics around on this.
cheers
Thanks alot for the reply . I surfed the tmo wepsite, and on it there is a "sim unlock" section where i can enter my imei, i did that and became an unlock code directly on their homepage. And it works
Now i can with my eplus carrier with that defy . Now i have another question, can i update the oS that is installed on the device ? You see my specs above Android Version etc. is that okay or can i go higher ?

Well you could always go higher and higher by rooting

Root rulez!
You do even own a Defy+.
Since I own the same phone i would recommend rooting the phone, install MS2Ginger 2.1 with all the patches you like and even V6 Supercharger, which is really a must-have! My Defy+ got considerably snappier with this script.
But regardless what you do: Do a NANDroid backup first after root!

[Q] what is CRC or QMR

when i was browsing the sources of htcdev i saw that the info lines was :
Phone model then android version tyen kernel versio then carrier and country and there was also the type of the rom and the option that were listed are CRC and QMR and i didnt understood it so can anyone translate it to me cause im new to all the htc stuff and kernels and fastboot...
so i need the the noobish type of explanation.
To see an example of what im talking about you can go to this site and in the phone model pick One X and in the carrier pick orange and then youll see what i mean.
oh and another thing i wanted to ask is:
if the kernel version number is higher or lower for example:
3.0.8 compared to 2.6.39 then what does it mean.
CRC its just a method of validating files.
And I THINK(could be 100% wrong) kernel versions are related to hardware specs(by region)
And what about QMR?

[Q] CM10 - Change voicemail number

Hi all
If I try to change the voicemail number on CM10 (nightly from 22nd) - I get the message: "Couldn't change the voicemail number. Contact your operator if this problem persists".
This is via Dialler > Settings > Voicemail > Setup
Is there any way to change it in a config file somewhere, manually? I am running CM10 so I'm obviously rooted...
I see this questions asked other places but no answers yet! Any help appreciated.
Thanks
James

For anyone who may be wondering for an answer...
I managed to bodge it in by editing the below file using Root Browser Lite off the market:
/system/etc/voicemail-conf.xml
Thought it might help someone....
Got google voice working again after CM10 update...

Used Root Browser and couldn't find that "voicemail-conf" file in my CM10+gapps+4.2apps update on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy II S (T989). From my research, it looks like T-mobile restricts their customers from setting/changing the voice mail forwarding number. I had to call Tmobile and tell them that I needed to change my voice mail number to my google voice number. They did something in the system on their end and I re-booted. Tried to set the number in the normal call settings, still wouldn't take. I then just entered a "MMI" code or something directly in the dialer as follows: *004*1xxxxxxxxxx# "xxxxxxxxxx" is my ten digit google voice number. This method worked! I don't know if other carriers restrict their voicemail in this way, but if you are on T-mobile it should work as I described.

[Q] Help decode my HTC one X number

Are you suppose to look at the s/n or the p/n ? I tried both but none of they fully matches this example. I want to see if my phone is made after HTC applied the wifi fix.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24898388&postcount=13
You can check this on the phone itself: Setting > About > Phone Identity > Device Serial Number
but it still doesn't match the example from that link.
my first 2 letter is FA
guess I'll have to call HTC. Even the support person said they don't know.
FA ? are you sure you have a real hox ?

Using a Cyanogen device with Android SDK (specifically device manager)

I'd like to us my Motorola Defy+ that is running CM 11.0 as a test device for an application that I am developing using Android Development Tools (ADT). Currently I get "????????????" for Serial number, "N/A" for AVD Name, and "Unknown" for the target. My non-Cyanogen devices are all detected correctly and show device specific values for these fields.
Has anyone else encountered and solved this problem? TIA.
