Using Dell Streak 7 as phone

FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND YOU NEED TO BE ROOTED
Ok so I found a couple of web pages that spoke of finding hidden
settings in the devices build.prop. But, even with this hack it will
still not make calls or receive them. Me being me i didnt even wait
I went straight to it and saw the phone options disabled.
Its located in the /system folder ,
I used root explorer so edit the build.prop , look for a line that says
ro.telephoney-disabled=true and you want to change that disabled
to enabled so it should read ro.telephoney-enabled=true
after this root exelporer makes a backup of the original , after that give
the streak a reboot and when in the dell stage UI you will see the phone
icon at the bottom now...
as we know theres nothing you can really do with it at the moment but, I have been looking over at the galaxy tab phone hack and that lead me to looking into the file system and I a couple of things like in the /system/framework folder there is a .jar file named "com.oem.networksetting.jar" in there it contains a classes.dex file that when opened in a text editor I see things like "networksetting.java OFFSET" and "areacode OFFSET" just a lot of things OFFSET ...any iedas any thoughts are welcome

Are you looking in the build.prop or the default prop
Sent from my Dell Streak 7 using XDA Premium App

also what plan do you have the tablet plan or a actual voice and data plan

I'm looking at the build.prop. I dont use a plan (although I have a sim installed, I did try one of those 7 day passes once though)
I use wifi and when I'm on the go I just make my mytouch 4g a mobile wifi hot spot and connect my streak to that.

You can look up in all the posts by me.
I wrote a really simple guide (I think!) to do it step by step
Hope it helps.
ps. I broadcast my gv number as my cell and use it to map my private cell to receive or make calls. so it becomes my main voice line.

Assuming you already have pbxes configured?
3cxphone config for Pbxes.org.
ProfileName = Whatever you name it
User = loudemartino-200 (your pbxes login)
Password= XXXXXXXX (your pbxes.org password)
Internal server = Blank
External Server = sip.pbxes.org
STUN server= stun3.3cx.com (default, leave it alone)
Thats it.

There has been a long winded discussion about it over at TabletRoms.com at therotically its possible, but so far not practical solution has arrived.

I'm also in same stage...
I did all the thing what u said, but unable to get into the code details. I learnt programming 10 -12 years back, at that time NO Android, if any android developers please look the matter.

to use dell streak 7 as a phone
Hi im using streak 7 wifi+3g unlocked version
I have found the solution to use streak 7 as a phone without using any root, just go to market and install apk installer, then find the attachment file Viber_2.1.6.632.apk on this post download it and save it on your streak 7 internal storage and find it with file explorer it will be in the download folder of your streak 7, this works also with all tablets that cant install viber via market and install it and follow the setup process after that you will be able to use your own carrier gsm number to call even international calls by using your data plan, try to add me on your phone book and call my number for testing +255776553398. or +255773044899 all your phone book contacts who are using viber you will see them and you can call them and sms them for free and then can call you and sms you.
Please donate if this works for you im sure this will work 100%

enable android wifi tethering on rooted at&t Atrix 4G

no need to run any script, or use any 3rd party tethering apps,
juz use Root Explorer, edit
"build.prop" under "system" folder,
find "ro.mot.entitlement_check=true" and change it into
"ro.mot.entitlement_check=false"
restart machine and tht's done, at&t authentication gone, tested and work
if this has been posted before, please remove, thx!

I guess there's really no reason to even add a custom APN with this, right?

Doesn't work for me. Still attempts to check.

Doesn't work for me, but i did something alse:
under my APN, i add "default,tether" in APN type (the last one) and thats it

it said readonly

if you're using root explorer you need to hit the tab near the top that says "Mount r/w" to edit the file.

It worked very great for me, only put default,tether.

turn off wifi..

This works but doesn't show the notification. Could cause people to lose battery life with this...

Bump, works for me on 1.8.3 with Gingerblur
Change the ro.entitlement to false and then add ",tether" next to default on the APN type.
Reboot the phone and enable the hotspot.
You won't get a notification in the taskbar, but just disable it when you're done with it.

hi i have changed. ro.entitlement to flase and reeboted, but it says too much battery and when you press yes it just closes. how is supposed to run when you have it right?

Well, if you changed it to "flase", then I'd imagine it not working.
Anyway, there is no "indication" that the hotspot is working, you need to verify that it is working by trying to connect to it via a computer.

1. I would like to know your process of rooting with gingerblur on 1.83
2. I have added false to that line, what do you mean by add tether to what APN?
3. would you have detailed instructions? like step by step vs. this vague info is just hard to follow.

I have had the best luck by simply changing the apn of att tether to "phone" from "broadband" using a SQL editor.
This allows mms and text messing to dynamically chose the correct apn (no manual downloading mms messages) and they icon works.

Those instructions are completely, patently obviously crystalline. You should go google your google os then reread. Seriously, don't ask to be served on a silver platter. Read, understand and ask for specific clarification on a step that confuses you if google and forum search fail you. Rooting is well documented. Get unlazied for that one. Which apn should you consider adding tether to? Probably the one you are using, common sense would dictate. (Further extension of common sense states that you might need to make a new apn that is a copy of your current one with changes for this.)
Mine worked without adding tether to my apn! I don't know that this particular step is necessary. I've downloaded several hundred MB's through my phone on Steam without adding tether to my apn, but YMMV.

das Bamf 1.6.2 Call Recording App

Is there a way anyone has figured out how to fix the FC'ing issues other than deleting it? I really like this feature, and it's already come in handy with my job and referencing previous conversations. I've tried to fix permissions and what not but still I get a FC warning when a call comes in but it stills records?!!? Any help would be great! Thanks

It has been mentioned a couple of times in each of the BAMF threads. the call recording app requires additions to the kernel. if you do not leave the rom on the default (or another BAMF) kernel, call recording will not work.

I have the same fc. I'm using kernel shipped with rom. When receiving incoming calls I get a fc but it still records. Makes it hard to answer as well, but the conversation ends up in the app with null instead of a number.

I'm using the kernel that shipped with the ROM as well...I was reading up on that in the other Bamf threads but I'm stumped.

ditto on wanting the call recorder nice feature
-bump-

Are any of the people having issues with CallRecorder using any 3rd party apps during the call?
Apps such as Mr. Number (blocking phone calls, or any similar app), etc, seem to interfere with callrecorder.

Kernel issues ?

I've been using RocketDial and Call Recorder has been working flawlessly and un-noticeably. Case in point, I forgot about that feature/app, and when I happened to open up the Call Recorder, I notices all my phone calls were there, two days worth.
What a cool and handy app. Hopefully I will never need it, but as the saying goes, better to have and not need than need and not have.
Have great Mother's Day all!!!

Try downloading the latest Adrynalyne kernel. I believe it was released today. That could fix the fc problem you're having.

Anyone know how to have the music player not look in the recorded calls folder when adding to playlist. Really nice app but annoying when I have shuffle all on and I start hearing my recorded calls instead of slipknot...lol. I use subsonic and there is a option to have the built in music app to not scan that folder.....

Try adding an empty file named ".nomedia" to the folder.

I use an app called "Backup to Gmail" which backs up (and can also restore to my phone) all my SMS, MMS and call logs to my gmail account. It would be awesome if there was a way to backup each recorded call from the Call Recorder app to my Gmail account in the same email as the call log backup so the recorded call is an attachment to the email.
I know that would use up a ton of data, but maybe there could be an option to only backup the calls when connected to WiFi if people need that.
Is building a backup to gmail feature something that is possible to do with the call recording app?

Caller ID

Hello everyone.
I am in search of an app that can HIDE / BLOCK CALLER ID IN OUTGOING CALLS. This one is preferably for Indian users.
Hope to get answers soon
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

Hmmm, an app wouldn't do this, although I guess it could if it placed the call for you. Really you would need a feature code for this. Common one is *67 followed by the number you're dialing. Your best bet is a google search like "sprint feature code" but using your carrier. You could also try using the word "star" in place of feature. Some carriers will not have all features of their phone system enabled.
Edit: I guess an app could possibly do it, you could also search "anonymous call" in the market to see.

Using Gingerbread or earlier:
1) Go to Settings
2) Call settings
3) Additional settings
4) Wait until it initializes the options
5) Caller ID
6) Hide number
7) go back and you're done
Using ICS:
1) Open Phone app
2) Click on Menu
3) Settings
4) Scroll down, click on Additional settings
5) Caller ID
6) Hide number
7) go back and you're done
I had a hard time finding that option in ICS (either on my Nexus S with ICS rom or on my Galaxy Nexus), so I used an app for a short while to hide my caller ID. There's quite a few on the market, but there's a free one which works great for me on ICS, it's called "myCallerID). I don't know if it will work for every country/carriers, but here's a link to it...

[HOW TO] Download APK's Directly From The PlayStore On Desktop

Hey guys came across this tools quite some time ago, iv been meaning to share a write up about it.. so here it is !
The tool is called APK Downloader, its a chrome plugin that allows you to download directly from the playstore onto your PC. Which allows you to sideload apps like a boss, this includes paid/pro apps.
There are instructions on the link I provided, although I will supply my own version.
1. Download APK Downloader 1.4.3 (right click, save as..)
OR
Desktop EXE version of the plugin can be found here: Real APK Leecher.
2. Open chrome and paste the following into the address bar: (not required for desktop version)
Code:
chrome://extensions/
3. Drag & drop extension onto chrome extension page. (not required for desktop version)
4. Enter email and device ID on Options page
1. There are two ways to get Email and Device ID
a. Easy way: install this Device ID app, it will show you your emails and Device ID
OR
b. Difficult way: Open dial pad, call *#*#8255#*#* ( 8255 = TALK ). If it opens “GTalk Service Monitor”, find lines that begin with JID and Device ID. Your email is JID, and your device id is a string that after android- prefix
For example: if it shows android-1234567890abcdef , then your device ID is 1234567890abcdef
Do not type in random email or device ID, it won’t work
2. Enter your email’s password, then press Login. If everything is ok, now you can use APK Downloader
5. Start using !
Navigate to any Google Playstore app page and you will notice a new icon right beside the favorite star on the address bar.
By clicking this icon the APK will be directly downloaded onto your PC, if it doesn't work the first time you may have to refresh the page.
Hope you enjoy, please remember to hit thanks.
