Idiot here...Apology for being rude

I dont understand why no one will help me. I asked numerous times for someone to help me in getting my internet connection setup again. I have installed Molski's last rom and now i can no longer get an internet connection. It might seem like a stupid ? to alot of people on here but i cant figure it out. And being totally ignored is pretty annoying. I have searched and cant figure out how to set it up. I have used Summiters roms in the past with no problem and now trying Molski's and Risidoro's i cant connect any more. If anyone can spare a second of there time to help out someone who is learnig it would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Please disregard my rudeness. my phone has gotten me very annoyed the last couple days and i realize the above post is no way to get help. Please read 3 posts down for more info. Thanks

Who is your Carrier? Cingular? T-Mobile? Orange?

I don't understand why you helped no one, so far. Many have asked the same question numerous times and of all the 20 posts you've got so far, which of those are answers to questions? None? Tell me why?

First of all, state your problem! What exactly is is that isn't working. Is it your GPRS connection? or are you trying to use your phone as a modem for a laptop? Are you having problems with wifi? What carrier are you using, what country? edge?
And if you actually want help, change the topic and I'd suggest that you change your first post as well.
And for the record I'd just want to say that no one is obligated to help you, ask politly next time...

Aggrivation
Ok, I have tried asking politely. Thats why i got upset and started this thread.
Hanmin.. I have not helped anyone for two reasons...no one has asked, and i dont like to just give answers if im not sure there the CORRECT answers. My 20 posts are mostly me asking questions to learn how to use this phone, if i was a master like alot of the people on this board i would gladly be of assistance...
Nomad...My problem is yes, my gprs connection, I cannot connect. It seems that Molski and Risidoro's roms dont have the settings in them already like Summiters' do. I live in the U.S. and have Cingular. My wifi works, i think, if i turn it on, it searches and finds networks, but i can never get it to connect to one. I have kinda given up on that until i can learn how to use it. Also, i know no one is obligated to help. I was just looking for someone to maybe lead me to a post where i can read and figure it out. I have searched numerous times but cannot find it on here. It seems that searching old posts is only good if you know what you are looking for exactly, otherwise pretty much every post turns up in the search results. Im sorry if ive come off impolite, its just from this phone being very aggravating. I dont have alot time to continuously keep up with the ever changing information associated with this phone. Im sure some on here would then say to not get involved with it then, but the roms that these guys put their valuable time into creating are awesome compared to what Cingular ships with. An i do appreciate that.
On another note..If someone would be interested in helping or guiding me in solving this and other issues i have with this phone so that i can become as good as some of the other fine peoples on this board i will make a generous donation. Scratch that, ill make the donation now, since i have already learned alot more than what i came to this board knowing... And once i feel more comfortable with knowledge i will most certainly help whenever possible.
Thanks all to have helped, and once again i apologize for my rudeness.

Have you tried this thread? it contains the needed settings.
Also, I know that the search function sucks. I usually use google "<topic> site:forum.xda-developers.com" it's a lot more accurate

Nomad,
Thanks, that helped alot. I actually saw that thread in my searches and somehow missed the cab. Boy talk about dumba$$...lol also, thanks for the google search info, is there anything that google isnt good for? Now if i could jsut figure out how to walk on water ill be all set =)
almost forgot, which is better, when you have the G icon by the signal level or the E. I always had the E with my other roms and i noticed that with molski's and Risidoro's its the G. I try searching , i think i remember reading about this before.
Shady
EDIT: Got it. searched google and found it out. Its a reg hack, i remebered after reading this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284970

Edge or GPRS
Basically I see no difference in performance. The "E" doesn't appear because Molski doesn't like it Some networks have edge, other don't. I'm sure that you have Edge, because of Molski not liking the letter E , you are shown an G

AT&T Tilt Data connection configuration problems

Hello,
I have searched all over for an answer to my problem, and have not found anything of real relevance. I am using the AT&T Tilt with AT&T service.
I have just downloaded and installed the firmware at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556293 . I was hoping the software upon install would configure the data connection by itself upon initial startup. But alas, this did not happen. Is there any application that I can get that can configure my data connection for me?

You must not have searched in the proper area of all over.
Found this on the first try ..

First off, thank you. The setup wizard cab worked perfectly. But are you really sure that you need to be this degrading to an xda-developers n00b? Im pretty sure you knew you knew exactly what you were looking for, whereas I did not.
Again, thanks for the help!

dude I just typed in att data settings, nothing impossibly hard to figure out. Next time I'll just say something like " search harder nub"..
How did you not know what you were looking for? You spelled it right out !

Degrading would be me having you dress up like a woman that has been crying and have you beg me for the answer.

true, i did spell it out myself, (sort of). next time, i should look harder, and i am sorry i took time out of your day. What I do not intend to do, however, is take up even more of your time rambling on for two hours in this post and start an argument, by so doing destroying any dignity that either of us might have.
Just as a side note, I would not beg you for the answer. this is the Internet. I would simply search somewhere else online. Given that I have the choice of being degraded or searching somewhere else online, I dont think it is possible for you to degrade me.
Seriously, though, thanks for your help. I really do appreciate it.

Is the 1-Click Rooting still available for Dream/G1?

i've been all over this site as well as others trying to find a fairly simple way to root my T-Mobile G1, non-dev phone running Cupcake 1.6. It looks like the 1-Click Rooting will work but first, before i do anything, i wanted to see if this procedure was still working.
Is it?
When i d/l Cyanogen's Mod i noticed that it d/l the update-cm-4.2.5-signed.zip version as well as the 4.2.7.1. Which one should i use?
It looks like the Radio is the same, so that would be one less step to perform, correct?
i'm attaching a .txt file which i've made so that things/steps are a little clearer for me to follow.
Any help would be appreciated. Have a great morning!

I am a total newb on the scene but from what I understand you can still do the one click root as long as you revert back to cupcake (RC7 for europe, RC29 for US? You will need to check). You can't do it on Donut (Which is 1.6 is it not?).
I might be way off, so hopefully someone more experienced can help you.
As far as the rest is concerned, I have no idea, sorry.

Sigh. i think you're correct -- i already have the 1.6 - Donut. Grrr.
Now i gotta figure out how to get back down to 1.5.
Thanks, zamtetsuken, that was a great help. Maybe i should just stick to the "If it's not broke, don't fix it." routine.
What advantages have you seen with your change to root?
Have a great afternoon!

You're most welcome.
I have been reading (and watching videos) from this website: http://theunlockr.com/category/howto/android_how_tos/htc-g1-dream/ today and they have videos that show you how to get back to cupcake, the 1-click root for the G1 and other good stuff.
I haven't actually done it yet, I am trying to do a lot of reading before I do try it, just so I don't mess things up. I know which rom I want to use but some methods require to have a SDCard reader when you're flashing the radio, rom etc, so I need to see if there is a work around as I do not have one. All I hear is good stuff about rooting though, apart from obviously those who brick their phone.
If you do it please let me know how you got on .

If you're running 1.6, part of one of the threads says that you can format your SDcard with your telephone! You don't need a card-reader. i don't have one either and am running PCLinuxOS 2009, fully updated on my home computer.
Have a great afternoon! and thanks for the link to the videos!

Yeah, I knew about the format option in 1.6 but in one of those videos once he reverts to cupcake (I believe) he takes out the SD Card while the phone is off and then puts the files on the card and then puts it back into the phone and switches it on. I will have to find out whether I can do it differently,
Thanks for the reply , you going to try it?

Am still trying to find an answer to a couple of questions, like will we have access to Market again? Whether i can set Google up with the kind of buy-as-you-go minutes that i have in Mexico through TelCel and wondering how i'm going to obtain all those WEP keys i've got on my present phone again.
Have a great evening!

You do get access to Market again. It just seems to work exactly as before . I am not sure how you would get the WEP keys again .

Hey! Congratulations!!! Wow! i'm stuck on the "Set up Gmail." Since i don't have a 3G Plan i'm in the process of getting past STEP1, Sub-section 6 -- lol.
i'm going to call a friend - my son-in-law - and get him to read off the APN settings on his G1. i set it up for him and i think we use the same carrier, TelCel. i need the MCC and MNC settings - i think, in order to get WiFi on this. Then i can set up Google and proceed.
i also had some strange things happen even in Sub-section 4! But it's fixed, so we're still hangin' in there.
Thanks for posting again, Congrats!, and have a wonderful evening!

I answered your post on AndroidOverdrive Fraz. Hopefully it will be what you need to get you up and running.

Thanks, guys, i'm rooted!!!

Cant change sprint hero esn/meid?

I know this topic is kind of frowned on, but bear with me, I'm doing it for legitimate purposes.
I just picked up a used sprint CDMA hero for use on my Carolina West plan. I rooted the new hero, put it in diag mode so that I could manipulate it with CDMA workshop 3.5 and Qxdm. My wife has a Carolina West Hero, so I was able to pull the PRL off of it and load it to my Sprint Hero. I also copied all of her NAM and EVDO settings to my phone and set my MSL/SPC to match Carolina West's, while giving it my phone #.
At this point, the phone's pretty much provisioned for Carolina West. So, I take it to one of their retail stores and they refuse to add the ESN to their database although its common practice with other carriers like Verizon.
I already have a data package for WAP browsing on my current phone, so I thought I'd try to change the ESN/MEID on the hero just to see if I could get it to work. Not hurting or defrauding anybody.
As I stated earlier, I used my licensed copy of CDMA workshop to change all of the EVDO, NAM, MSL, etc. However, it fails every time I try to change the ESN or MEID. I also read up on QXDA. As with CDMA workshop, I can read/change Nam stuff etc. but when I go to the Memory Viewer, all of the information on the screen is greyed out and the only address I can access is 0x00400000. And, since it returns all 0's for everything, I don't think it is actually reading the phone's memory.
Without discussing any legal implications, can someone please share ideas with me as to why CDMA Workshop and QXDA can't access the phone's memory even though they are supposed to be able to?
Thanks a million guys, I've learned more here so far than every other phone forum put together.

Only thing I can think of is restarting computer / phone...
I wouldn't be posting anything about this stuff on this site, I'm sure if you googled meid and hero you'd find a site that is a bit more accepting of this stuff.

I had already thought of that. I restarted the computer and both phones several times. For a "control group" I also tried to see if I could read the memory on the other Hero. Neither will allow it (in either CDMA workshop or QXDM).
Do you think flashing to an earlier software revision would do me any good? The sprint one is at 1.56.651.2 and pri 1.70_003. The other one is running something newer and proprietary (much like what I've read about Cellsouth, Bluegrass, Appalachian, Alaska, etc.).
Actually, this is the most accepting forum I've found so far. Thats why I chose this forum to ask. This is where I found most of my research on ESN/Meid.
If you have any suggestions of somewhere else to look/ask please post...or shoot me a PM.
I also did alot of reading at Howard Forums, Mobile Files, CDMA gurus, etc. but the information on the subject was really more clear and coherent here.

This forum is just more accepting because a mod hasn't come across your post yet. There are too many sections and most of the sections do not have individual mods for that section only. So it is a bit harder to police.
Anyway... you can try searching google for "esn repair" rather then "change esn". Unfortunately we can't help you any further. I only know the basics and not the details of the programs since I never had a reason to do that. There might be 1 or 2 people on these forums who could truly help you.
However, no one can post anything more because it would mean a ban and this thread deleted. Even though you have a good reason to do so, changing your esn is illegal and almost any forum out there will strictly get rid of posts that talk about it because they don't want to be shut down.

Its not like this is one of the thousands of posts out there asking "how do I change my esn". That information is fairly readily available.
Instead, if you read my post you'll see that I'm asking for some troubleshooting help to try to determine why my device isn't functioning properly and a spitballing of ideas as to how I can get it to work (ie...possibly rolling back to a previous software revision). I just filled in the backstory, because I felt it was pertinent information (showing that I can make writes to all areas of the device with various programs) just not the ESN/MEID.
Though, some would frown on what I'm trying to accomplish, I haven't asked for any illegal information...just troubleshooting help to figure out why my device isn't behaving properly. I don't know of any forum that would delete a post and ban somebody for asking for troubleshooting help, thats why the forum is here.

I know where you are coming from. All I was trying to say is that many forums will error on the side of caution and get rid of these threads.
I am not sure if there was a bunch of forums that got shut down that has brought the fear of god into the forum operators or what. I know forums get shut down all the time for warez(not just android) but I am not sure why they are so fearful about the ESN issue.
I think it is because a shutdown notice can be sent to the hosting site and the hosting site will blindly comply without looking into the issue. So the owner/operators of the forum have no say in the matter and can't argue their case.

Are you using a laptop? I had that problem, so used a desktop. Then after that it worked with the laptop. It is pretty simple thing to do.

Good idea aven. That is one of the things though that struck my mind late last night, although for a different reason. I was originally trying on a laptop running Win 7 Pro. Sometimes Win 7's a bastard about running programs designed for legacy communications. So, I installed the programs onto my desktop which is still on Win XP pro. Well, at least I was able to try QPST and QXDM on the desktop. My CDMA workshop license is tied to the laptop.
Anyway, I got the same errors on the desktop that I did the laptop.
And back to the idea I had about going back to a earlier software version, then attempting it...that didn't work too swimmingly either. In trying to research what earlier stock versions there were, I found that some Heroes came out with 1.29 and some with 1.56. Once a phone is at 1.56, it can never go back to 1.29. I don't know the history of this phone, if it came out with 1.29 or not, but either way its at 1.56 now. Either way, I reinstalled the stock 1.56 RUU which unrooted the phone. I haven't had time to root it again yet. But, with the stock 1.56 on, I still got the same errors when messing with the ESN/MEID.
I posted on another forum in the post that details this method asking if it can be confirmed that they are in fact changeable in 1.56. I also found some information about people using MTTY to log communications during this process. That is what I plan to do next.
Can anyone here confirm that they've seen it done on a Hero at 1.59?

Are you using the HTC usb data cord or a regular one? Could be worth looking into

Have you set up your ports in QPST Configuration? That solved my problems I think.

Yep...using the data cable that came new in the box with my wife's Hero.

Yes, while using QXDM, QPST is configured properly. I can use it to write to NAM, EVDO, etc., just not ESN/MEID. If the port isn't connected in the QPST configuration, QXDM won't even behave like a phone is there.
In CDMA workshop, the program itself grabs the com port. I've forgotten before and left QPST server running while opening CDMA workshop. When that happens, QPST has the port locked so that other programs (apart from QXDM) can't access it. At that point I have to shut down QPST server before I can connect the port in CDMA workshop.
Actually, I ran into the same problem when I tried what I mentioned earlier. I tried to connect the port in MTTY to log the communications. But then, I wasn't able to use CDMA Workshop or QXDM because MTTY had the port locked.

Were you ever able to find a solution? Stuck here as well.

Lets just say programs like DFS and CDMA Workshop have come light years since this thread was started.

I need to find the new versions then. I was one of the first to do it after the 2.1 update that I could find. Now I'm wondering if I could do it to a newer HTC phone

G1 google signin.

my g1 was DRC92, I managed to downgrade with not too much effort (the <enter>reboot><enter> works) now when it came to starting up it asked me to input my g mail details. Did this but couldn't sign on thanks to no wifi.
After days of messing about (most of the time spent in adb) i'm giving up and posting for help. ADB always says offline so i cant do anything with that i have no other lead to try and have tried 2 computers.
I don't know anyone with Tmobile so cant borrow a sim.
I did manage to get GPRS up by pressing menu on the signin screen then deleting all the APN's but t-mobile uk then changing that to my networks (o2) details the Symbol pops up and i get the arrows like data is being transferred but i get the error signing in. is it not allowed to let me sign in on 02? is there something not allowing me to sign in on o2? I'm really stuck and have been trying for 2 days done LOADS of research but nothing so far has helped.
Its not rooted (just got it so not 100%) is there anything i can do to bypass this screen as i have tried a lot even putting a custom rom would be fine with me if someone can link me to one that lets me avoid signup but again not too sure if i can install it if i need to be rooted...
Thanks for any help its much appreciated.

Wouldnt you know it as soon as i post gmail lets me sign in problem solved. Thanks for looking maybe custom apn settings will help others that cant do the adb thing?

I'm in the same position as you. Only i'm on 3.
I took my G1 back to 1.6 so that i could flash to Cyanogen6 and i stuck on that screen (as it claims no connection could be made).
Is there any little things you did? Been half a day like this now.
And i also can't get ADB to work. It see's my phone, but claims "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
EDIT: Read the details on APN setups and i have 1.6 working! Thanks man! Owe you one

Glad it helped, I actually did the whole APN thing as soon as i got the phone so i should have remembered but i have a really sucky memory :/
Anyway this should save people messing about enabling wifi and such through adb Glad it helped it will save someone else a lot of messing about too i hope
