hello guys....
i recently rooted my desire and didnt use my simcard in it since i rooted.... now i try my simcard and it tells me that i have a EDIT NETWORK LOCK on n i have to type it some numbers to unlock it... :S i dunno wat i did to get that :S
my desire is an orange uk handset.... is there anyway of me being able to sort that out??

EDIT: network lock

You need a PUK. Either ring Orange or try this

I'm not on Orange so I have no idea how it works.
Give it a go though.

sorry matey.... i ment network lock.... sorry

Downgrade the radio to 4.05.00.11 version and you'll be fine.

how do i downgrade? is there a step by step guide?

The same way you flash a ROM, download it to your SDCard and boot into a recovery menu (preferably ClockWork) and then install the zip file you downloaded.

Totally depends if there's a radio included in the ROM, custom ROM's don't really include new radios though so you should be fine.

No need for 2 topics.
For froyo flash custom roms that state they have froyo. Instructions included in their respective topics. Also, less begging, more googling.

1. you don't need htc sync, well not me anyway. i just installed the hboot drivers, plugged phone via usb with debugging mode on (and boot into bootloader - it should say hboot usb plugin) and ran the unrevoked reflash tool and let it run.
2. copy the rom you wanna flash onto sd card.
3. boot into bootloader again (hold trackpad and press power button)
4. select bootloader -> select recovery -> install zip from sd card -> pick the rom you wanna flash.
5. reboot.
6. done.

are you not getting the Over The air prompt?

the easy way is that you update your phone with wi fi in phone menu/settings

Only when the Wildfire is unbranded... when it´s provider-branded you have to wait till the provider releases Froyo....
The fastest way is the one that kevin2516 posted.
For more informations and tutorials take a look in the Wildfire Development Forum!

[Q] Htc desire hd radio and ril confirmation

Hy geeks!
I know I know... this post is suitable for htc desire hd radio thread post...
however I can' t post there yet because I' ve less than 10 posts.
I have a rooted and s-off htc desire hd with IceColdSandwitch 8.8 AOKP rom (based on android 4.0.3)
I' ve read a lot of posts about radio and ril but I still have some doubts.
I' ve installed and run GetRIL app from market to see if ril version matches radio drivers version, here results:
-------------------------
RIL -> 2.2.0018G
Baseband (Actual radio) -> 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M
Suggested radio -> 12.65.60.29P_26.14.04.28_M
RiL and baseband don' t match
-------------------------
I haven' t a sense based rom and so I can' t flash rils (is it correct?)
Thant' s why the button 'Download and install ril' in GetRIL app is unclickable (grey colour) ?
I downloaded from htc desire hd radio thread 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M radio file,
I smoothly flashed it through fastboot on Ubuntu 12.10.
The phone works correctly and it seems better with this new radio.
Then I re-run GetRIL app and the result is:
-------------------------
RIL -> 2.2.0018G
Baseband (Actual radio) -> 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M
Suggested radio -> 12.65.60.29P_26.14.04.28_M
RiL and baseband don' t match
-------------------------
I have checked under settings->info and the radio actual version is
the same detected by GetRIL (12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M)
So why after flash does 'U' appear at the end of baseband version?
Since GetRIL still stay that radio and ril don' t match I should download
12.65.60.29P_26.14.04.28_M and flash it?
What do these fu___ng letters ('U' and 'P') mean?

I have my own doubts about flashing radios and rils but from what I read in your thread...it seems to me that you are trying to flash a ril for that cm9 rom your using and its not working correct ? I came from a LG optimus one, where it was v10 for froyo and v20 for gb and above if you wanted better signal. That was called basebands and I had to use a program called lgdmp tool to switch basebands but it was a one time occurrence...I wish I could help but maybe a more advanced user for this device will be able to shine some light for us...
Ps...so you say your getting better signal with that 65 radio, correct ?

As long as the phone works well, don't worry about GetRIL. You should only flash RILs on GB/Froyo ROMs.

Yes, wifi signal is far better than before and battery seems to last longer
I noticed also a little improvement with 3g/2g

Ok, I won' t touch the ril!
Someone says that cooked roms don' t use RIL. Is it true?
If so is it a good idea to flash latest radio driver ? ( July 2012: Radio 12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11_M - AT&T Inspire 4G 3.20.502.52 (Latest) )

Do you have a link for the 65 radio .. I can't seem to find the thread on xda premium...all I have to do is rename the downloaded zip to pd98img and flash in hboot? Am I correct?

Here is the official radio thread for desire hd.
I downloaded 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M
Yes you can do so, but I suggest you flashing radio through fastboot because it' s safer.
Install fastboot and adb, in your dhd turn on usb debugging mode in settings -> development
Connect with usb, boot dhd in bootloader (power button + vol down).
Open consolle (with admin privileges) and type 'fastboot devices'.
It must display the dhd' s id.
Then type fastboot flash radio /path/to/radiofile/radio.img
Normal reboot and verify in setting-> info radio version
Before doing that install GetRIL in dhd and run it to see
suggested radio for your ril

Unfortunately I don't have a computer....well I'm using a sense rom right now, from what I heard rils aren't needed for cm9, cm10, etc....

Yes I discovered you' re right, ril just has to be flashed with sense based froyo and gingerbread roms! If you will flash a ril let me know how it works
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app

I don't think I'll ever need to flash a ril... I'm not a huge fan of sense type roms, ironic right ? I only got the i4g because someone sold me one for 80 bucks and the specs were descent. I however do want to flash a radio but not right now, I'm using T-Mobile prepaid so I only get edge/2g..I don't really think switching my radio while using T-Mobile prepaid will do me much justice so I'll just wait til next week when I get on straight talk at&t. I'll finally be getting 4g speeds

Never surrender! After looking for the meaning of last letter in baseband version
I finally discovered it thanks to a Russian android blog
In /system partition there' s a file called build.prop
This file holds a lot (perhaps all?) of variables used by kernel
Each line is in the format variable = value
There' s a variable called ro.ril.hsxpa
Depending on which value you assign to this variable you will
see a different capital letter as the last letter in basaband version number
For exemple if I set it to '2' I will have 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M
If I set it to '3' I will have 12.65.60.29P_26.14.04.28_M
Possible values:
'0' -> UMTS only (NO HSPA)
'1' -> HSDPA (but no HSUPA)
'2' -> HSDPA + HSUPA
There are also other values but nobody seems to know what they do!
I set ro.ril.hsxpa = 3 and GetRil app congratulates saying ril and baseband match!
However I find my htc faster with ro.ril.hsxpa = 2
If you need to edit buid.prop remember you must have root permissions!
The easiest way it' s to use adb
On Linux:
Code:
sudo su
adb pull /system/build.prop /path/in/your/pc
adb shell // Start adb shell
su
remount // Unmount /system partition and remount it with read-write permissions
adb push /path/of/build.prop/in/your/pc /system/build.prop.bak
Now that you have saved a backup copy
you can edit build.prop in your pc and
overwrite it in your phone
Code:
adb push /path/of/build.prop/in/your/pc /system
If you don' t like adb so much I think you can do
everything in your htc with terminal and nano editor
with root permissions

Did your pay your bill ? Have you tried with other WiFi capable devices ? Die you unplug your router,wait for 5 minutes, than reconnect ? Who's to say your phones the culprit ?

[Q] HOX - Need stock rom for 3.14.862.27 VODAP021

Hey guys, before i get told to use the search function (again..) i have spent near on 10 solid hours trying to get my phone going again but with no luck.
Alright, I rooted my phone and carried out a backup of the stock rom but being a noob it ended up being corrupt. So i rooted the phone and installed Cyanogen mod. all was sweet until my phone plan ran out and I needed to unlock my sim card from the vodafone network. which i found out was only doable through the stock rom.
My phones detials:
Model: HTC one X
CID: VODAP021
Main version: 3.14.862.27
Hboot: 1.36
Security is currently on.
The issue i have come across is that i cant find a stock RUU or even nandroid backup of this particular rom. So my questions are:
1.Can i unlock myself from the network without the stock rom?
2.Does anyone have a copy of the stock rom for my phone?
3.If no rom is found, what steps can i take to remove the network lock?
Thanks all.

I'm currently on CM 10.2 Android 4.2.2 and can tell you that you cannot unlock network. I've just arrived in the UK and have been unable to unlock my network with the unlock code provided by Vodafone. I'll let you know if I find a way around this!

I've actually just flashed an older ICS stock ROM and relocked my phone but the Network Unlock still does not work!

Bump

I had the same problem but using cyanogenmod 10.2 (Android 4.3) I was able to unlock my network lock with a key provided by vodafone heres my thread

Well for unlocking the hTC One X i think that our device's should be S-OFF but we can't do that..Only go to your operator center and ask them..
