hello everyone i am new to these forums/Pda/windows mobile. i know im supposed to search it for myself and all but im a full time working student and havnt the time to search through all the topics. but anyway i need advice, im getting an At&t tilt tomorrow and would like help on the whole process of making it better ( removing the bloatware adding apps and what not flashing the rom) oh also im subscribed to T-mobile so getting it unlocked is 1st priority. and how to use t-zones with it. i know most of u will start flaming as u read this topic but id really appreciate it if someone would gladly link me the Topics to wat i need much appreciated thanks
I'll reply first because most will just ignore this redundant post. I work full-time and go to school full-time and I make time for most things that interest me.
So. I went to google.com and in that search box I typed "Sim Unlocker Kaiser" and got this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361039
That solves your first problem. I would suggest taking time out of your busy life and reading that post before doing anything on your new phone or it will be hell to get it fixed if you F it up.
For your other questions I will let you search for them as I have just showed you my searching method.
Go to google.com and in the search box type in " *what you're looking for* Kaiser" If you attach Kaiser at the end I will assure you 99.99 percent you will get the top results taking you straight to a post on this site. Hope that helps. I think we could close this thread now.
Let me kindly add....
10th link from the left, 3rd link from the right, has the words "Search" and is located at the top of this thread.
So... you are busy.
OK - so am I - personally - my recommendation would be to not do anything with your Kaiser when you get it - that way you have to take almost no responsibility for it. Ifanything goes wrong you can take it back to AT&T and make them fix it.
Now - if you take time to personalize it and add and remove things from it you risk it doing things that you will have to fix not AT&T. That will slow you down in your busy life.
You really should not be here as I see trouble coming for you. You will be tempted to try these things without having the time to recover from problems. I am not wishing it on you - simply stating what looks like the obvious.

thanks for the help :3 im really busy right now coz im helping my sister with her wedding plans and it gets hectic after work and school so yea :3 but anyway thanks
Unlock, then apply HARD Spl from this forum.. Browse through the ROMs here then flash one.. Best is to flash with a plain vanilla one..
Also, you havent told if this is your first pocket pc..?
yes this is my 1st ppc that i will be purchasing so everything is new to me and i am totally clueless wat to do
Well dude this isn't the matrix and we can't just download info into your brain. You're going to have to learn the old fashioned way.
just take time to read everything...dont rush if u dont have time then dont to it yet...its better to take time to read then try and do it wrong and then u have to spend even more time fixing it
It's a good thing you're a student. That means you understand what you will have to do to LEARN. You'll have to pay the price and invest time or money if you want the premium results. There are many here who would help you customize your phone for $130/hour. I suspect you don't have the funds to support that so you'll have to invest the time.
I know people like to give you a hard time when you are new, if you have any specific or general questions send me a PM and I will help you out.
if it's basic stuff that can be postponed a bit after more important things are discussed you can always PM me,i'm on here daily while at work mondays through fridays
Thanks to everyone, il take ur advices and take time to read the forums when i get the time hopefully i get some time this weekend thanks everyone

I understand completly asking the question like that. Sometimes I have spent hours trying to find out what I need. Though I Have no live.
I purchased an unlocked Ty tn II and can't get it to do what I want. ie 10 sleep mode won't go away, etc, etc.. It's taking too much of my time to trouble shoot. I live in Evanston, Illinois and wondering if anyone wants to help me. I prefer some that is a senor contributor here has the same phone and already knows what to do. Thanks. Steve
For being so picky as to who helps you, I sure hope you are willing to pay them . . . . .
You would be extremely surprised as to how much "Non-Senior" members know about our devices
Anyway, goodluck and have fun here on XDA. Just remember to ALWAYS use the search button in this forum.
I can tell you that HTC just released an update for the KAISER/TILT on their site. This has to deal with the issue of the power settings not staying where they should be at. Check it out at HTC America under product support and then under TILT. This may help...

WTF???
This site is called "XDA DEVELOPERS", not "XDA spoon-feed those to busy, lazy or stupid to work things out for themselves".
How come noobs are getting worse or lazier? There now seem to be a few of these "I want someone else to do it for me" threads. I guess I now know where the sacked Lehman Brothers employees have gone.

WOW!!! What a nice first post, you really contributed by starting this thread. When I first started here I was scared about flashing. But I read and figured it out on MY OWN, such as life.
Mea Culpa-- Still would like programing assistance
I want to apologize to anyone I've offended by my post. I have been reading this site for some time now. I am in awe of the things that many of you have been able to accomplish with these phones and the programing. It is amazing. My complements to all contributors and inquirers alike, I find both helpful.
However my area of expertise is not in programing such phones. Just as clients come to me for marketing services, I too was willing to pay for some programing expertise. In these tough economic times, I thought it would be a welcomed opportunity. And yes, I am willing to try anyone that knows what they are doing, e.g. junior or senior contributor.
I did read about the Tilt upgrade thank you, but I read on the ATT site that it wasn't working. Additionally, when I go to the download screen at HTC the download button is not on my computer screen. I can see it in the print preview, but not on the screen. I installed Kaiser tweaks and that didn't do it either.
So, I gave it a good first shot, and not that I am throwing in the towel, but it seems to me a great opportunity for the right person. I don't just want to fix the current problems, I want to keep going and install some of these great programs and perhaps a new OS. Take care and keep up the good work.
Chicago Developer Wanted to Fix tytn II
Please send private message if you would like to fix my phone as previously posted in this thread. Will donate or pay outright to fix and update to latest ROM.
Thanks.
I am new to this and am going to set up a linux box soon and try my hand at some cooking. My main question is, are we able to use someone elses ROM or parts of it and build off as long as we give credit. Being new to this, building one from scratch may be over whelming. I really like some ROM's but there are some things i would wanna change is all. Anyone here able to give me some tips.. i have been looking at the Chef Central area and getting an idea.
here's the basic rule of thumb:
if your making something that will never be released publicly (online or otherwise) no one is gonna care if you use someone else's ROM as a base.
IF you are going to post it ANYWHERE online, you must FIRST ask the original developer if it's okay to post (they will likely tell you to give credit or post a link to the original or something along these lines).
even if they already say in their posts that you can modify and redistribute their rom, you are STILL obligated to contact the original developer, just to make sure and let them know that you are doing so.
essentially it's the golden rule here man, don't do something you wouldn't want someone to do to you.
Hey guys, I just wanna do a quick survey, how many ppl would help, to get knzo a new/used P970, so he can join back to our section. Since this seems to be the only Problem, that keeps him from joining back...
So I wanna get a quick resonance, of how many people here would join me.
I WANNA HAVE HIM BACK BADLY!
You know he already did great things for us, so lets reward this to him and help financing this phone.
Let's see how many ppl we can get together here, and then we can talk about, how much everyone is willing to pay.
I only want you to reply, if your sure about willing to pay.
I am thinking about a max amount of 5€/person, since I think this is an amout, that everyone can effort.
And you all want a great ROM, I am quite sure
And we got a lot of members around here and most only take the files and use them, like me as well. But somewhen comes the time for payback
So gimme a quick feedback, if you are willing to join me.
Hope we get enough ppl together.
He is already exist p970?

I am willing, but need knzo's update if he's willing to support us, and for how long (let's say untill we have stable ICS... ).
I've donated once Samsung Galaxy i5700 developer, he got the phone, but never finished the job he was meant to do (done lot of other great stuff, but no 3d driver).
+1. knzo would be the biggest addition back to the P970.
i am willing to contribute, but am a student without any account or card.
all i can have is cash from mah parents
but i can afford 10 euro if it is possible to get bank transfer going. i'll do it frm mah dads a/c.
i think we should get a bounty going???....& this topic should be stickied to the Q&A sub forum.
I already wrote, I wouldnt want anyone to pay more than 5 euros. But I was writing with him a bit and he doesnt know, if he really wants/is able to come back, for some personal reasons.
I guess everyone would understand this as well, since we all/or most at least should have a private life as well. So lets see, how it turns out and if he wants to come back, I'll revive this thread and we'll let the money flow to him
knzo would be the biggest addition back to the P970.
Please come back
Greetings
Anyone donated something? And what's with knzzo do he know this?
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App
I think he doesnt know until now, but better wait with donations, since he isnt sure, if he really wants to come back

I have read that both ardx and the pranam want to sell their device. The price at which the pranam wants to sell the device is about INR 8000 which is < $150.

Currently the Cherry Mobile Magnum HD (Huawei X6 U9000) is P7999 or $181 brand new from the Philippines with stocks available and one year warranty.
Considering pranam's phone is nearing a year old and has no warranty it would more likely be worth < $90. Keep in mind this is also going to a Dev and not aiming to fetch near retail.
We have two members from the Philippines @ XDA, Aeoi and myself. I will only help source a new unit if the person is a proven Dev.
+1 to mttBLK .... I am also ready to help

Well i wasnt actually marketing for anyones device. I was worried that one by one we are losing devs and there is no way in near future i am going to sell my devce. That's a really good news that it is so cheap and you are willing to help. Lets see now I need suggestions for potential devs. Guys recommended devs and then we first contact them and ask if they could really help.

You have great intentions and i praise you for trying to keep our devices fresh.
Do we have a capable Dev in mind that has not got a X6 and would be able/guarantee to help out?
I think Aeoi said, unless we get source from Foxconn/Motorola/Sharp we are stuck with what we have already achieved and cant move on with JB anyway.
Me personally.. im going to wait a couple of months and and look to upgrade to a 1GB Ram unit probably the Huawei Ascend P1 or similar.
cheers
I had some communication with Dzo[http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1492957] and he says that he has lots of code which can be really helpful for our device but the problem is that he doesn't have sufficient time to develop for another device. Now we need a developer who is good at modding the kernel source like tj sir. Guys if you happen to know anyone please contact him and let us know. Meanwhile i am trying to contact some other devs and see if they can help.
Thanks

Randomblame has shown willingness
Dear friends
There is some good news. Randomblame [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778202 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827590] from Desire HD forum has shown willingness for development for our device. From his posts it looks like that he has sufficient experience for developing from source. Friends please advise what you think about the developer and should we go about donating? I will also inform the developer about the fact that we do not have the latest android kernel and that only have sources for 0.32 and 0.35 and ask if he can really port the latest kernel?
Randomblame's reply " Actually I'd love to work on it I've been looking for a new platform that wasn't so crowded with devs "
I had also had some communication with Lord Clockan and he also said that he doesn't have sufficient time for development.

Hi vivek and others
I can certainly collect the money for donations but should only for indians because the sum will be transferred to mattBLK in phillipines and cross border payments will incur some forex charges (3%- 4%). So those who are not staying in india should donate directly to mattBLK. Regarding this i have talked with mattBLK to create a thread wherein the details of his account and other details will be given. If he advises then even i am willing to collect the donations and transfer the sum to his local bank account.
The sum that we will have to raise will be for the cost of device (about $181) and shipping to usa charges(may be $20 to $40 depending on the service desired). So the target should be placed around $210 - $220 (pranam has reduced the price to < $128 and if we are short of donations then we can think of buying his device or may be even ardX if anyone knows the price of his device). I think i had made a list of members @ XDA and found that we have more than 60 members plus some others if they are willing from andro-id and droidsans. Raising this sum will require some dedication from our members as the number of members is not even in hundreds let alone thousands as is the case for any other device. I believe each one of us should contribute at least $2, which shouldn't be a big deal for most of us.
Thanks
hi
ok thread is re opened
@nayneshdev
pls mention all details on the 1st page as i had Pmed to u

We're sorry. We're not able to complete personal payments to account holders in India at this time.
Why is that so?
Oh is that so. Let me check. My account is verified but probably it might the policy of PayPal India. I will look into the matter. Thanks for trying though.
