Stuck in Airplane mode

[WhiteBlazer01]

Wow, I'm a dummy. I was stuck in Airplane mode all last night, frustrated, rebooting, then today I just remembered, "hey, didn't I post something in the forum with this exact question"? So I Googled "ppcgeeks.com whiteblazer01 stuck in airplane mode" (so I can bring up my post), and I read the 2nd post (which solved my problem last time), and DUH! I am using a new replacement T2 I just got yesterday - and it had a SIM card in it!! SIM card out, and problem solved. Whadda dummy!! LOL

PS, for those stuck in Airplane mode without a SIM card, I don't have an answer.

I remember reading that with the SIM card in, if you change the network in windows from Global to CDMA only, Android will boot and you will have signal. I just tried it and it works. Hope that helps!

I find that if I try and load haret while I'm plugged in and charging I get stuck in airplane mode. If I boot android without the phone plugged in it works fine.

Was there any solution to this that I missed in the FAQ's and such? I searched, but I'm having the same problem as others. No SIM card in, sometimes the phone boots up fine with 3G and CDMA working, then sometimes it boots into Airplane mode (which can't be shut off, or if it is shut off, the network doesn't come back on), or as is the current instance, was working fine with 3G/CDMA, then the screen shut off, now Airplane mode.

Post your startup.txt's please, and don't use the so-called 'startup utility' - only launch haret directly.

Here's what I have. I'd like to add pm.sleep=1 or 2 in there, and something to get rid of the battery low message. But here's how it stands.

set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 2292
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=2,1,3 rel_path=andboot north_am_dialing=0 force_cdma=1 hw3d.force=0 physkeyboard=rhod400"
boot

Hrm, you have some deprecated commands in thar... I bolded/put them in red. You also said you have the SIM out, which is good... I hear you can't boot with a SIM in and use CDMA. It could just be the issue that I've experienced where the phone's radio just seems to flake out. Yours is definitely more pronounced in your description, usually my phone's radio will completely disable itself, then if I wait a few seconds it'll re-enable and start working. However, this usually happens when I'm on a phone call...

Also, there's a couple of commands in blue that are odd to me. If you use north_am_dialing, it should =1. If you don't need it, don't include it

In addition, why don't you enable hw3d...?

I added the pm.sleep command as well, for reference.

Okay, I grabbed a completely new startup.txt when I swapped andboot folder with a new load. Works great now! Thanks for taking a look at that one though arrrghhh

Don't take this the wrong way, but hitting thanks for someone who takes the time to analyze your startup, give you some recommendations, etc, would show him you appreciate it. It doesn't give anyone a reward, other than a higher rep level which many people appreciate (I don't personally care about mine lol, but I make a point to hit thanks for people that help me or others). Especially someone like Arrrrghhhh who answers many questions here and helps everyone, even if peeps ask a question that was just previously answered (not implying you at all, seriously, take a look through some of the threads and you'll understand what I mean )
