Hi everyone, I have a Desire HD, (bought it thru Amazon USA), it currently has ARHD 7.0.3 ROM installed and as I said in an earlier post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583912 my 3G connection is malfunctioning.
I've been reading online about this problem an it seems that the Desire HD connect's to a 900/2100 Mhz band (europe) and in my country we use 850/1900 Mhz (american).
The question is: Is there any way I can modify the frequency of the phone so it'll work correctly here, (Chile), or is this a hardware issue?
Thanks for your answer and any other ideas/comment you may have.
Nope, can't change it its a hardware thing.
How many times does this question have to be asked? Search before posting. I have hardly any posts because every question I need to ask has been answered, just like this one has.

ya you will only ever get 2g connection on that phone where you live. nothing can be done about this
Thanks to marsdta and Darunion for your answers, the issue is clear now, you've confirmed what I've been reading.
To gmurphy0487 I'm so sorry to take time away from your busy schedule to read an "already asked and answer question," you even took the time to complain about it, thanks for that! I guess the problem was I didn't take the appropriate amount of time to review this whole forum in it's entirety, I probably will be doing this again and again so, have a go at complaining every time you want, freedom of speech and all that have a nice day!

Only problem is it says in the rules of his forum, search. There is no reason to open a new thread when you could easily have searched and found the answer.

You should flash an American RUU, that might solve your problem...or maybe try CM

Hi shad0wboss, first off thank you for you answer but what do you mean by American RUU? I have no idea where to find it or search for it, I've been searching/reading online but have been unable to find something definitive about it, what is it? an executable file (.exe)? or a zip I can download directly to my phone? If you could point me in the right direction I'll appreciate it very much.
It would be either the att ruu or the telus, BUT it wont do anything. No software can change what frequencies the phone can use. Like mentioned before its a hardware thing
Looks like your best option is to get an unlocked Inspire 4g(American Version) of the Desire HD. Same frequency as Chile I think.

I wouldnt advise it. As breaking forum rules can lead to infractions and bans. A search would hove lead you to one of the hundreds of threads on this.
Now as stated above the bands are hardcoded into the hardware. This can not be changed. Any that say it can be have no idea how it really works

Why would you make *this* your first post on the XDA forums? Seriously, you created a *NEW* thread just to ask a question that nobody here would really know the answer to? A question that has already been asked a hundred times!
Please, for the love of all that is good and right in this world, think before you post. Search before you post. And count to ten and ask yourself, "Is this the right forum to ask this question?" before you post.

according to the timeline that was leaked we should get it at the end of this month.
It could be a month, it could be 2 or it could be several. Just be happy you have a phone that works. It will be out when its out. if you want it so soon learn to do it your self and do it your self.
Wow I swear everyone thinks there a mod. It would be nice if someone just answered his question. Not everyone is on the computer day and night researching the **** out of there phone. I am really starting to hate these forums.

Agreed. So one could do one of two things.
1) google: mytouch slide 3g android 2.2 release date, obtain answer.
2) locate android development forum, create a new account, confirm account, write message asking question, wait 6 hours, obtain answer.
But to be fair he asked when we think the slide will get it and not if we had any real information... so... July 27th at 2:45PM EDT.
Really?

Why does it take them so long to release an update? When new windows come out for millions of different pc's they have it working in days if it doesn't already work out the box.Here we have something smaller than even nlited windows xp,and it takes them months.Is it that hard to write drivers for these phones or they just taking they sweet time?If its that hard why not make it simple,make a program for android like nlite that slipstreams drivers and we good to go,is there a reason for all this compexity?
One more quistion does bios on these phones ever gets updates?

Main differences is, with PCs, the hardware is modular, and it is left up to the individual hardware components manufacturer's to make sure everything is up to date. The phone is an all in one. Add on top of that, the Sense UI that allows you to basically change the entire look and feel of the OS. So the core updates have to take all the variances in hardware into consideration.

Why one word comes to mind TROll. Someone said 10 min I guess I missed that update Now I have to wait till "July 27th at 2:45PM EDT".
is all that really necessary? we have a rom, yes it needs work, but now we can let the flaming die and do some work. if someone asks a question that seems obvious, just dont respond. eventually they will either find the answer on their own, or they will give up. its annoying to watch this forum for updates and information when half the posts are to flame someone. someone wants to mention wasting threads, recover the thread and make it useful.
now that there is a rom to work with, does anyone want to work on making it usable while the experienced devs build something with some polish?
Sufficient number of threads on this topic already; closed.
Hey guys, been looking and tinkering all day with this. Just got a new Evo 4G that came with Gingerbread on it. rEVOked doesn't work on it to root it and I cannot seem to roll it back with an RUU.
Phone Stats:
Android 2.3.3
Baseband 2.15.00.05.02
Build 4.24.651.1 CL61076
Software 4.24.651.1
Any idea what I need to do to root it? Even if I could find a shell process to root and load Clockwork I'd be happy.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys might have for me.

Thanks for that I did search, I've been searching on here, androidcentral, cyanogenmod, xda, google, rEVOked, etc. I have seen some people be able to roll back the RUU but I've had no luck, that's why I posted the question. I understand the search functions on forums, but haven't found a definitive answer. Apparently though, there is no root for devices with 2.3.3? or just the Evo?
The lucky ones that were able to downgrade with an older ruu already have s off. But I know its not just EVO 4G its other devices as well. The sensation just recently hot s off if I'm not mistaken.

The 2nd poster is right, I'm gonna give you crap, because this is beyond annoying. There are THOUSANDS of posts now, including plenty of threads on the front page of each section that say that there is NO ROOT!!!!!!
I know you 'claim' to have done a search, but there is no WAY you would have posted this if you did, because you would KNOW that it cannot be rooted. This reminds me of the guy that lied to Chef Ramsey on Hell's Kitchen last night....

You guys are totally right. I'm just some idiot that doesn't deserve to be on here. Even after the hours of my attempts and searching and trying today and then posting a question after everything I've done didn't work... despite seeing some people able to roll back the RUU and then root it. I have no idea why I even attempt to get help. There is always someone who wants to jump in someone's **** for asking a question. I wouldn't have asked if I knew definitively that there was no way to do it. I figured I was in the right area to ask if anyone knew any tricks for this, but apparently I was wrong to ask a question at all.
Thanks for all the 'search for it' replies...oh, and calling me a liar and whatever else will happen itt besides answering a question like an adult.
Dude don't worry about this crap all locked EVO users are pissed right now, including myself lol, check this forum out...

You asked a question that has been asked and answered 100's of times on here. If you truly did a search, which I do NOT believe you did, you would have seen it said, over and over and over and over again that there is no way to root your phone with the version of Android you have. There is no mistaking it, no gray area, no maybes. It's been definitely posted in onther posts RIGHT ON THE FRONT PAGE, there is no root.
typical reaction from someone who just got called out and exposed....
"Hours" of searching, huh? You seriously deserve the crap you've taken. There are even countless posts about attempts to downgrade the RUU. I suggest you actually search next time, instead of lying about it.

just to test a theory i pretended i was newbie coming here to find 2.3.3 root
so i typed "2.3.3 root" on the search box...
that turned about 10 threads in wich any i could easily see that there is still no exploit / root for 2.3.3
now , notice i am not being an ass about it, but its as simple as that bro, if you dont want to put in a wee bit of effort on finding the answers , dont expect people to put in effort to try to answer them either, that is being selfish
but i hope your question is now answered, trust me , you WILL see stickies , you WILL know when root is achieved if you just chek in these forums every couple of days, but for now, dont be suprised if people get mad at you for wasting their time answering stuff that has already been answered a thousand times for the last month
Just gotta say there is a new thread like this every stinking day, sometimes 2 or 3. Any research or just plain looking thru a few threads would have answered your questions.

If you really searched, you should be ashamed of yourself. Its pretty embarrassing when I count 5 threads in the first 2 pages on this very matter that you some how missed. No excuses. Do a better job next time and you will receive hospitality instead of hostility.
To answer your question. No root for 2.3.

I know it can be frustrating at times especially when you need an answer asap.. but there may be a few reasons why no one answers your question
-its been asked way too many times (search for it)
-no one understands your question or knows the answer
-the evo 4g isn't neccesarily "new" therefore there's less traffic in this forum
-People work have other things to deal with and it may be a while (sometimes a long while) before you get an answer.

Basically covered all the reasons why not to reply.
And when your question is about MetroPCS (I checked), you're less likely to get replies because the vast majority of members here use Sprint.
If there's a specific site for phones flashed to other networks, you'd be better asking there. People can't answer what they don't know.

Not going to beat a dead horse here but another tip here that you didn't hear from me is the bump. You posted that question 5 days ago and I assume was 3-5 pages back by now. I usually give my post a day then go back in and post the "anyone figure this out yet?" bump. Usually it will get a response. Like they already said, this forum is over a year old. Most have moved on and the ones that are here with the answers usually only bounce in and out of their own Rom threads.

Experienced users do post in the Q & A section. And to make a thread just to see if it gets attention seems like a trap / childish [to me] , just like a person would pretend to have a fake bf/gf to see if the other gets jealous. Though regardless, experienced user do post here, I've seen it quite frequently. IF there were some question that wasn't answered and someone knows someone who can help, 9/10 that personal would say, "I don't know how to help,but if you look up _______ they can help you."
Also, the only place you can't post til abot 20 posts or so, if the development section. That's only because a lot of new users post Q & A questions there, clogging up that board, when they belong here. You can still read and download rom, just can't post there til ~20 posts, when you are more 'educated' on the forum. No bad mouthing, just saying.
I totally understand cause yea you do see it all the time where at the end of a guide full of roms. Someone asks what's a good rom or where do I find it. We should be able to take a test on experience to bypass the 20 post thing. My frustration came from knowing my answered would of lyed on this forum but no one even viewed it for days. I'm over that's what I get for getting a device that's over a year old. But hey its a big step up from my old one.

Well a lot of people still have the evo. And you can always try the bump, or if you see someone active on the forum, shoot them a pm; they'll most likely help you.

Do you mean your mobile network settings? If so I can answer your question, your sim card has those importen settings saved, so if you turn on your phone with the new rom everythink will work on its own
Yes but that's on a gsm phone, and my metro pcs wildfire is a cdma. And I read that the metro cdma loses mobiledata when rooted.

i wish i could take a thanks away from you... losing faith in xda here, these loser noobs are answering questions for people and the guys that know are nowhere. i did in fact take your advice and flashed stock sense to my metro phone, now i have no mobile network access, it started as soon as i flashed the stock sense marvelc rom and even when i restore my backups and such i have no mobile network. i saw in a different post that someone is working on a fix for this problem, i hope so.
in short, bobdamnit you have been less than unhelpful and should keep out of things that are not addressed to you!
i only wanted an answer from a dev, or someone who has had this problem and fixed it.

Wow! I feel your pain, dude.
I, too, have witnessed garbage responses coming in from certain members of the community who (I'm sure, if asked) consider themselves to be the greatest thing to happen to the Internet since streaming porn.
Because of the useless replies coming in, I actually included a disclaimer in Post #1 of a question thread I started (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487627&page=5) and got so much grief because of it! In the end, I think you will see I was justified, though.
I asked that only those who actually know the answer, please respond. I also said to please not respond with a certain type of answer (because it misses the point). Sure enough, both my caveats were violated. And now, some elitist members are trying (emphasis on TRYING) to make me look bad, but failing miserably. The beauty of an email thread is that you can always scroll up and read what everyone wrote. The issue here is that some folks took HUGE offense when I told them their answers were off the mark (because they were!). There were a couple of folks with helpful insight - which I thanked, but those posts of mine were conveniently ignored.
I even had one developer proclaim that devs hated the android community, and yet I am the one being rude?! Simply stunning.
Kudos to you for sticking to your guns and I hope you eventually find the CORRECT resource (on this forum, would be nice) to help you through your WFS issue.
It is for those reasons that I am giving you your first Thanks!
Thanks for posting such a note. Hopefully others will open their eyes because of it.

Well after days of not being able to make calls in the office via the Suresignal, and after swapping out the phone for a new one, I had to get a refund.
Really wanted to keep this device, but as a business, and not being able to make or receive calls in the office, it had to go, and yes I've been through the turning WIFI off etc, but every other device I have owned seems to be able to connect to wifi and the Suresignal at the same time and make phone calls.
There seems to be an issue with connecting to the Vodafone Suresignal, and HTC didn't know about the issue when I called, and had no help on the matter.
Such a shame....
it might be kind of a shame to add another thread to so many when there is a returns thread. everyone sees you now, though, and there are tons of dupe threads that stay open so i'm sure you can wait around and get some more replies. =]
Don't really understand the need for your post, I made a valid point, one that CPW and HTC seem (or claim) to be unaware of.
After spending just under £500, I think I have reason to gripe.
The one drawback with forums seems to be a global thing across all forums, is that there is always someone that wants to have a pop and say "do a search before posting" etc, but surely a forum is to ask and seek advice, and discuss, not to just search an archive, we may just as well have a searchable database and be done with if that's the attitude.
Why doesn't a mod just move the thread as is the norm if it's that much of an issue?
As I see it, you have not made any constructive additions to the thread at all, does your One X connect to a sure signal, do you have a solution for it?
Some of us don't have hours and hours to trawl through shed loads of threads and search results, and only spend a few short minutes online when work commitments allow.
Just a tip, if your thread is about Sure Signal, put that in the title.

Haha my phone is fine, get it on a decent network and stop complaining. Don't see the need for your post, complain on a Vodafone web site, and not try to make HTC sound bad, Vodafone network problems if u ask me
HTC is fine.

Chill out
No need for the hostility, if someone has a solution then help the guy out
Seriously! We were all "noobs" once. Instead of bashing offer help. Sometimes a new user can't always find what they are looking for. Search functions are not always "friendly".
My MoPho's in the kitchen sink!!
So calls are ok outdoor? When the reception is good? Then it is not phone's problem.
One valid solution, ask your boss to place you closer to window.

Come on man. The OP has been a member since 2009, started a dozen threads and been thanked once. I guess some people give to this community, others just take.

I actually agree with this comment.
The OP has RETURNED his phone, hes not posting to ask for a solution before he returns and so isnt actually asking for help to fix something.
If he had been asking for help as a last straw, then yes, a new thread my be a good idea… just stating a fact that hes returned the phone…. kinda pointless

It's not worth getting bent out of shape over really is it, it's only a phone after all...

Had 2 phones (and yes updated both), HTC had no idea, Vodafone had no idea, Carphone Warehouse had no idea, so what do you do, leave a £500 paperweight on the desk because it can't make calls like any other device on the market, or take it back within the 30 days to get your £500 back?
I searched....and searched for answers, posted on the VF forum, but nobody had any answers, I wonder just how many of you actually use a device for work, and rely on it for communication, instead of just playing angry birds and posting a Facebook update that you've just bought a can of cola!
I see countless complaint threads about "there's a mark on my device, I want it exchanged" or "my screen creaks" etc etc etc, to me, that's petty, but people deem them to be worthy of much discussion.....

Some people post when they feel they have something to contribute, others just post for the sake of it and actually say nothing....
