So, a few months ago, I tucked my Amaze 4G phone away b/c I got a new phone with a different carrier. I reset it too and so all my accounts were removed. I doubt I threw out my SIM card, but, it's not in my phone, I probably put it away somewhere.
I then read about how I can use my old phone as a GPS. I first had to root my phone.
So, I found this forum and I got to step 3 based on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1426377
I did get a successful message (I can't remember the message now, but, it seemed successful), but, what exactly does it do? Should I have an extra recovery file on my computer or phone? I don't see any new file created on my computer. So, I just want to make sure it worked properly before moving on.
At the same time, I tried logging into Google Play using the app, it doesn't work. It says username and password mismatch. I tried it using my browser and I can log in. Does it have to do with not having a sim card. Do I have to have a carrier to log into Google Play app. I tried adding the account in the the settings and it still says I can't log in. Any ideas. I tried countless times, it can't be a username / password mismatch. I tried it several times on the browser without a hitch. Why is that?
I'd like to install a gps app on my phone, but, I can't log into the Google Play app.
