Request to unlock toshiba bootloader for their tablets (rooting)

I hope Toshiba gets convinced before it's too late,
they are really loosing the market, not as they were already having a good share,
I mean that they have absolutely perfect products compared to those made by others, but their market is not that good, that they may discontinue investing in the tablet market(my opinion).
I would like to remind them that a mobile device like the HTC HD2 was a legacy on its own, why?, because developers were able to unlock it and install Modified versions of Winmo 6.5, Android, Windows phone , Ubuntu and even MEEGO.
so please consider unlocking the bootloader and you will see a dramatic change in selling your tablet products, for the existing and even for future products!

Anyone who has the skills to use a "rooted" tablet without permanently bricking it, should also be able to figure-out how to get around a locked bootloader...
Toshiba would be reckless to officially allow that, without 1st receiving a signed waiver — also witnessed by your mother or gf and an attorney!
Finally, despite your claim, we are NOT a nation of gearheads — Pricing, features and competent support are, and will continue to be the major factors determining how popular a product will be...

Why ipad or ipad mini has no calling facility when wifi cellular is mentioned in specifications and also why do they never provide calling facility for their tablets?

wifi+cellualr is clearly mentioned in ipad n ipad mini then why is there no calling facility?why does apple never provide calling facilities like other company tabs?

The term cellular means cellular data only, there has never been a telephone capability built in to the iPad WiFi+cellular models.
You must arrange cellular data coverage with your cellular carrier or another cellular carrier to use the cellular data capability of the iPad.

Solved!

I do not have a list of the specific applications, however all of the proprietary ones you have mentioned will cease to work, and you will not be able to sue the standard PC Companion or Update Service to update/repair your handset.
There are a number of other repurcussions however they are outlined in details here:

My phone company submitted a request to unlock my iPhone at the end of my contract and I haven't heard back from Apple for three weeks. How do I prod them to get on with it?

Hi. I finished the contract through which I got my iPhone (Orange UK) and I've waited three weeks to get a message from Apple to say the phone is unlocked so I can use it with another service. Anyone know a way of prodding them to get on with it so I can use my phone. The required 20 days (ludicrous) are up and nothing from Cupertino.

Just to clarify - When I requested my unlock from AT&T, I received an email from them that my unlock was approved. I verified with Apple that the unlock request had been processed, and then I just had to restore my phone. You can call Applecare at 800-694-7466 and ask them if your carrier has processed your request to unlock the phone. If not, you will need to contact the carrier again (as Gail pointed out - it is the carrier who unlocks the phone).

Why won't you unlock the bootloader?

Toshiba, why won't you put an APK in the downloads section to unlock the bootloader. Explaining that it will void the warrantee and that you will no longer be able to receive I updates from the service station OTA.

They don't care. Never another Toshiba for me:
1. I had a 750GB Toshiba Cavio external HD that died with minimum usage after 11 months...
2. This tablet has annoying light bleed and is locked.
3. I have PORTAGE R700 laptop - Annoying fan noise !
Will never recommend Toshiba to any one !

Will AT&T or Apple unlock iPhone 4 for non customers (bought for no commitment price)

I wanted toraise a request to unlock an iPhone with AT&T bought at a no commitment price (full price) though locked to AT&T and never used AT&T services (read; not a customer).
When I contacted AT&T to unlock this phone, I was told to contact Apple since AT&T was not taking up such requests from non customers. Also the AT&T policy states that they will unlock phones bought for no commitment price.
Can someone clarify whom to contact to raise the request? Is Apple in a position to identify no commitment price devices and unlock them?
If Apple can help, how do I approach them?

Hi modular,
I guess you have not read my earlier threads completely, I received the approval and it did not work. I was in constant touch with AT&T on the case when they suddenly changed their policy and told me what is mentioned above.
I am not being wishful. I was told by AT&T earlier that my Phone was eligible and the earlier approval was some error from their side and would be corrected. If somebody is wasting everybody's time it is this change in policy by AT&T and their comments to contact Apple and whosoever. It is a developing situation and really bad in part of large corporations to walk back on their promise. I'm just seeking clarification on the current situation.
Lastly I think this is a forum to request for help from the community and if you feel time is being wasted do not read the threads or comment, I have provided enough tags and an appropriate subject line for you to ignore this thread. Either be emphatic to people's problem or do not comment.

UK service provider can no longer unlock my iPhone for US use, and US service providers and Apple store say that only my UK service provider can unlock this phone. Help!

I bought this iPhone while backpacking through Europe 2 years ago. It was the first thing i did after i got off the airplane to help me navigate, book hostels, trains, flights, and talk with family back home. it cost me around 700-800 US dollars, full price since they do pricing/contracts different over in the UK.
It's been a couple years, and I'm ready to ditch my 6 year old Samsung and move on to this iPhone. The problem is, since i wasn't using the UK service for a while, they dropped my number/user account completely and they can no longer unlock my iPhone. I talked to AT&T and the Apple store, and they said that the only way I can unlock my iPhone is by contacting the service company that i originally purchased this from--whom can't help since i no longer have an account with them.
How do i LEGALLY unlock this iPhone for use in the US?

Only the wireless provider to which an iPhone is locked can unlock it.
You may have to get a PayAsYouGo sim from that provider to activate
your account with them so you can get the iPhone unlocked.
There is not other legal way to unlock the iPhone for use with other than
the wireless carrier to which it is locked. Contact them to see what options
they offer for re-activating the iPhone on their network.

How do I unlock a file for viewing by other computers

Please be kind, I'm not a computer whiz!! I am trying to share a file between computers (both Mac's). I have gone to the file sharing folder under preferences and checked the boxes I wanted (or thought) would allow me to do this. I can access the other computer but when I click on the file that I want to look at I get the message "unable to access file because you do not have permission to view". Well, that stinks. Is there a way to "unlock" that file for sharing purposes? I need to put that file on my iPad as well as my new MacBook Pro

Pooper: A .cws file is a ClarisWorks or AppleWorks template: a file that, when you double-click it, causes the parent application (C'Wks or A'Wks) to create a new file that is an exact duplicate of the template file, except that it's unlocked and ready to have text entered into it. The template file is locked, not by using the "locked" checkbox, but by virtue of being a template instead of a document. A template is locked by definition, so you won't change it by mistake, and can use it over and over as the basis for many new documents.
Instead of saving all your documents as templates, save them as documents. In AppleWorks or ClarisWorks, this will result in their having .cwk instead of .cws as a filename extension. The necessary options can be found in the "Save" and/or "Save As..." dialog boxes in Appleworks or ClarisWorks — probably in a pull-down file format menu. I don't use those apps myself, so I'm not certain what those dialog boxes look like in them.
The issue of other people not being able to open the files you email to them is unrelated. Anyone who doesn't have AppleWorks or ClarisWorks will be unable to open files that are written in its native formats. If you trashed your copy of AppleWorks/ClarisWorks, you wouldn't be able to open them yourself. Files that you will want to share with people who don't have A'Wks/C'Wks should be saved in a universal file format such as RTF or plain text.

RECEIVER: ERROR: Access to requested resource is not authorized for user

Hi,
I installed two instances of COREid Federation in my machine. Also installed SiteMinder and LDAP. Source Domain of COREid (8101) uses LDAP as IdMBridge and Destination Domain (9101) uses SiteMinder as IdMBridge. I am trying to access the resource protected by the SiteMinder from the source domain using the URL which is constructed using the pattern given in the PDF:
http://mymachine.domain.com:8101/shareid/saml/ObSAMLTransferService?DOMAIN=DestinationDomain&method=POST&TARGET=http://mymachine.domain.com:8887/Source/Source.html
Assertions are generated and I can see the assertion in the Source domain and transferred to the Destination Domain.
when i try to access the Source.html protected with siteminder, I get the following error in the Destination Domain Shareid Log file:
ERROR - [http10113-Processor3] - RECEIVER: ERROR: Access to the requested resource is not authorized for user uid=username, ou=People, dc=xyz,dc=com
Please help me to solve this issue?
Note: When the resource is accessed directly, siteminder authorizes the same user.

We also occationaly have this error. See my log for an example :
Transaction completed successfuly for DocEntry = 54358 : In company FIXTHISPLEASE on 3/2/2010 9:48:49 AM

Transaction completed successfuly for DocEntry = 54427 : In company FIXTHISPLEASE on 3/2/2010 3:05:12 PM
As you can see from 9:48am to 3:05pm, one occurance of this error occured. And they say that the transaction was
tried a few seconds later and it worked.
the STARTTRANSACTION() and ENDTRANSACTION() are used by the DI API so I'm really in the blank about this error and it starts to anoy the customer. Their SAP is 2007 SP01 PL08
Any concrete ideas about this ?

Has anyone tried CDN cloud serving for their podcasts?

Is anyone using Akamai or Highwinds Content Distribution Network for their podcast files? I'm thinking of using 'Origin Pull' where they take the first request for the file at your site and store it 'in the cloud' then all subsequent requests are served from the cloud.
I was wondering if anyone has tried this and if there were any complications with it?

I can't answer you specifically on this, but I've seen cases where odd redirect or content management URLs broke the Store, which is much more touchy than a browser.
If the URL the Store has is directly to the file, and the method you describe takes place in the background, it would likely be OK; but if some sort of odd URL is used then it's risky. Unless someone happens to have done exactly this already I can only suggest either making a new podcast and trying it (make it look convincing - it the Store thinks it's a test it will be rejected -you can always get it removed afterwards); or possibly you could post just one episode done in this way; if it doesn't work you would only need to modify the URL back to a normal one.
The first method would test whether it works for the feed as well as the media, the second only for the media. Note that if you want to use this to count downloads it's probably useless with the feed, since the iTunes application checks subscribed feeds periodically - I don't know whether checking but not actually downloading would count or not.

Hi, I requested an unlock from T-mobile UK 1.5M ago, and after a restore I got the message that my iphones carrier setttings were updated successfully, but never get the message that it's unlocked. What am I doing wrong?

Hi everybody, I need help.
I requested an unlock from T-mobile UK 1.5M ago, and after the restore I got the message that my iphones carrier setttings were updated successfully, but never get the message that it's unlocked. And it still doesn't support nay other SIM. What am I doing wrong? How do I get it unlocked?
Thanks in advance for advice

Did you restore the phone as a new device when you did the restore/unlock, or did you restore it from an existing backup? I have found that when unlocking an iPhone on the AT&T network, you don't get the message that the unlock was successful if you don't restore as a new device. The unlock still works, you just don't get the message. Perhaps it is not carrier specific for this behavior.

HT6055 Request to Apple: restore support for older codecs

I used Quicktime extensively for my research before upgrading to Mavericks, and now that these older codecs have been removed, none of my experimental videos taken over the past 5 years will play in Quicktime. This is extremely disappointing.
I'd like to gather as much user support as possible to request that Apple restore support for these older codecs.
PLEASE RESPOND ON THIS THREAD BY ADDING YOUR REQUEST FOR APPLE TO RESTORE SUPPORT FOR OLDER CODECS.
FYI, my video files were .avi format, recorded by a Nikon D300s and a Zeiss EVO 55 scanning electron microscope.

Some things can be converted without transforming the data. I have data in Excel spreadsheets that is identical to the data in the Lotus Symphony spreadsheets in which I entered the data in 1986. Converting video does involve data transformation which is undesirable unless it comes to a point where it is unavoidable. Speaking as a research scientist, one is obligated to try to preserve original data to a reasonable extent. In this case the video is not "dead". It can still be played. It's just Apple's behavior that anything older than about 4 years is old-fashioned and to be forgotten that's mandating stepping outside Apple software to do so. Yes, it would be a good idea to convert so when future upgrades mean no old codecs will play at least the data are available to some degree. I still would not get rid of the old files since they are the original data, and if the person spends 30 seconds installing VLC player they can still view the original data for another 10 years at least (if they keep the computer that long -- my computer is 12 years old and I can still run applications on it dating from the early 1990s).
By the way, you can still buy VHS players. I agree they will not be around forever, and if it's a family video you want to play 20 years from now then you may as well convert it now, but then that's not research evidence.
Optical media are dead at Apple, but still extensively used outside Apple. I agree in 20 years it will be hard to find a DVD player but visit right now any store selling movies or music, or a public library, and optical media are still around. Apple can force the issue where their hardware is involved, especially as regards to installing Apple software, and of course by pushing online media sales (if you buy from the iTunes Store, which I don't).

Site examples of using css to design for smartphone, tablet, projection

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a site that uses css to design for different platform using css. Not a standalone mobile site, but one where the existing site uses jquery to show the sites differntly.
I saw a video of it using cs5.5 and it seems to be the way forward, but would love to see how others designed/structured their sites to use this technology.
Cheers
Dave

Hi
The best place to view demo's regarding the jQuery mobile framework is the official site at - http://jquerymobile.com/. But remember designing and building a site specifically for mobiles, (tablet/mobile/cell devices) is no longer a completely different process to a normal site and all smart-phones can now display a normal desktop web site as good as a desktop pc, (and when it comes to html5/css3 even better).
The use of redirects for mobile devices is now an old outdated recommendation, and is the equivalent of saying to any tablet/smart-phone user, "Use IE7 or go-away", so unless you are mainly targeting pre-2008 devices do not bother, (Google and similar do this because they are covering 'all' devices and present a very simple page design which convert to mobiles without much difficulty). It is now a more widely accepted method to use media-queries to display a link to a mobile specific site, that is hidden on larger displays.
Do not get hung-up as some do on this site with the iPhone, it is only one of the devices that must be targeted, and is not even the most popular having a smaller market share than Android powered devices, (I personally use the iTouch, (which has the same web capabilities as the iPhone) and the Samsung Galaxy S2 for my personal testing, then SDK's and 3rd party testing services for other devices) a popular blog with many links that is specific to mobile development is - http://www.visionmobile.com/blog/.
With regards to testing on mobiles, you do not require a iPhone specifically, and if you are on the mac you can download the SDK for accurate testing, (but then what does one do for all the other devices?) and the true mark of a professional, (which I do not claim to be, my clients may, but I do not, and anyone saying they are whilst 'insulting' others must be viewed with suspicion, as inter-personal skills are also part of any designers/developers necessary skills) is knowing that you must test on all popular OS's and devices, (similar to browsers, and just testing on the iPhone is like just testing your site in IE8 and ignoring everything else) so for setting up a local testing suite see - http://www.mikebrittain.com/blog/2010/01/31/browser-testing-for-mobile-web-applications/, and/or you can also use a 3rd party service such as - http://www.deviceanywhere.com/.
For a number of tutorials on using CS5/5.5 for developing mobile site see, - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/devices/mobile-web.html.
