Rogers 911 Update and DroidWall #5

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

On January 24th, 2010 , Rogers forced an update due to a bug with 911 calls
crashing the phone if you have GPS on. To make certain everyone installed
the update, they cut off data access to everyone with an HTC dream or magic.

For anyone with an aftermarket firmware that cannot get the data back, even
after getting a "network reset", MAKE CERTAIN that you have disabled the
firewall while waiting for the refresh.

THIS IS NOT A DROIDWALL ISSUE, DROIDWALL is functioning exactly as
expected. But it also seems to block whatever initial registration
information the backend system requires to reregister your phone.

(I'm logging this here for posterity, I hope you don't mind)

np.

And i forgot to mention that once the phone is reregistered, there is no problem
turning droidwall back on.

I believe most people updated already, so I'm closing this.
