[EVO Shift 4G General] wireless.praying.mantis:
Once MetroPCS has had their ROM flashed to your HTC EVO Shift 4G, give the MetroPCS technical support team a call at 1 888 863 8768 (from a landline phone or another wireless one) and see have the technical support representative they do a step by step programming for the settings to data and MMS access for MetroPCS. From what I've seen with regional wireless carriers like Cricket Wireless and MetroPCS, you'll have voice service, most likely SMS as well, but may have experience issues with data/MMS services.

Who here has Metro?

52 days till sprint contract is up. Thinking of switching to something cheaper and keeping the Shift.. Metros $43 i think with gps added.

I can live without 4g although i have it now:
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Doesn't sound like a bad deal at all.
[EVO Shift 4G General] trsix:
T minus 8 days left with sprint

Any of u current Shifters using Metro?

No LTE service in Vegas and i'm mostly a wifi user now. And if away from home i mostly use

streaming which usually is ok with 3g, usually lol.

So maybe cheapy metro

Update for Nevadans. You can't flash your current phone to metro in NV. I stopped by Metro. You can in Cali she said But as soon as you come here it will stop working..

I installed helix boot screen and shutdown screen on my wifes phone, she is running syndicate 1.0.2 with fuscia theme. Now she is getting a ton of force closes, it pretty much locks her phone up right after the boot up screen! How do I fix this? or how do I get rid of the boot screens and put them back to syndicate boot screen and shutdown screen?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
She must have improperly shut the phone. Boot into clockworkmod, fix permissions then try rebooting. If that first work you're going to have to reflash the Rom.

I am running vegan 5.1.1 and I'm trying to figure out why I would want google voice on this tablet. It can't make voice calls, and it seems to mess up texts coming from google voice to my phone. When the tablet is connected to GV, my phone no longer receives push notification texts.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfin13:
I get my GV texts on both my phone and my tablet. I could easily use my phone for all my GV texting needs, but if I've got my tab with me, it's just easier to read and type.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberpyr8:
I was hoping to use it for text messaging from the tablet. That's the only use I really see.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miatawnt2b:
so when you set up GV on your tablet, did you tell it that your phone number was your cell number for your other device?

That's what I did, and my other mobile device is an iphone (which may be part of the problem) but now when I get a text from GV, it goes to the tablet an doesn't get pushed to the iphone at all.

-J
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
It works for sending and receiving texts. Once you get to the point of logging in with your GV email you just need to back out by hotting the home button. No further setup needed.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chadness:
Yeah, what Mantara says. Don't tell it that it's got your cell phone number.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miatawnt2b:

Hate to post a new thread with another problem so quick after my other :P Howevvvvver

Been using the premium version of Rom Manager for a couple of months now, it made CM7 nightly upgrades a breeze! However I'm having a problem now. Wheneever I try to download a ROM it tries, then restarts my download progress then tells me it's failed...

Im connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot and am able to use the market and web etc on the same connection. Any ideas?

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Coolsaber57:
Hi guys,

I've noticed that the past week or so my phone will simply not wake up for calls.

The call goes through and rings on the other end, but nothing happens for my phone. I don't even get a missed call notification.

I am running Superclean 2.92 and Nitro's Honeycomb theme, with JT's kernel. I was using the Comavolt kernel, but I thought that it may be undervolt-related, so I switched kernels. No dice, still has the same problem. I also wiped davlik and cache. I do not use SetCPU.

Anyone here have any idea what's going on? Any suggestions?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minho422:
I had the same result from flashing the minimalist theme for EB01, but a reinstallation of the theme fixed it. The cause can vary a lot, so I suggest just reinstalling everything from stock or one by one, rather than troubleshooting

Yeah, that was my plan, I just wanted to see if anyone had a simple fix for this.

Hi, ppl. I accidentally wiped my sd card, and now i want to get the factory data back. But unfortunately, those data are not part of the phone's rom. :(

Can someone list me the multimedia content that comes with the phone?

I know I don't have the multi-alarm alarm sound anymore, and by what I can recall, there was a folder named "media" where those files were.

Can someone check that for me please? Thanks.
[XPERIA X8 General] DarkThanos:
The folder name was "alarms" ...media folder I think was empty.

Anyway, phone can work with no card so everything in the card is useless if you dont use it. My alarm never wake me up for a reson so I cant understund the reason to retrive this folder. (did you tried to find your data from sd deleted files?)
[XPERIA X8 General] kecil26:
try Recuva from piriform.com..its has ability to recover files from card :D i've not tested it..but it worth a try..goodluck and be careful next time :D

[Vega General] MarkyG82:
I got my Vega today and have been fiddling with it all evening. I'm bow at a stage where I want to try a custom rom.

All the roms require cwm to be installed or the rom installed via a PC.

How are most people getting cwm onto their device? I'm running s modded galaxy s so roms and cwm don't scare me :-)

Many thanks in advance.

You can zoom and flash camera with the app, Viginette. Zoom is not working on camcorder.

Anything posted on the front page of a ROM thread is the latest version. Occasionally older versions are also there but usually devs remove them with the new releases.

The reason you can't post in those threads is because you haven't made the requisite 10 posts, its a feature that is supposed to keep people from cluttering Dev only threads with questions that are usually answered by reading the first post.

I have been reading about LTE and will it be compatible with our phones? I know the rooties here will probably make it available if it ever happens, but will it be easy? What about WiMax support on our phones..just some questions that appeared in my mind.
[HTC Inspire 4G] onthezone:
There is no support for LTE or wimax, the 4G in the inspire is a 3.9G aka hspa+. There will never be support for true 4G in this phone.

[G Tablet General] butchconner:
Roebeet has posted a thread trying to get Viewsonic moving on setting some things

straight that need to be set straight -- and that's good and I agree with it.

What it has done that I don't like, though, is that it has created negative thoughts

and backlash against what I think is the most economical, most powerful, most flexible

and most user adaptable tablet on the market -- the G-Tablet.

I sorry, but even though I agree with Roebeet and I understand the realities of

the corporate world -- I AM NOT FINISHED WITH MY TWO G-TABLETS YET!!!

I think some people bought the G-Tablet thinking that first thing you know the software

would be upgraded and they would suddenly have a fourth- for fifth generation

supertablet. Ain't gonna happen.

The G-Tablet was bleeding edge when it came out and except for the screen it did

and still does have some of the best specs out. The software left a lot to

be desired, but if you look at Version 3991 (the UAT Roebeet downloaded and

hopes they will finish and OTA) -- the latest stock is not too bad. And the alternate

ROMs are great too.

BOTTOM LINE: With or without VS support, the G-Tablet is a good tablet and

it is not dead. As long as we are all here and the devs are devving and the

modders are modding and the helpers are helping and the users are playing --

WE'RE IN GOOD SHAPE.

Yes, I eventually plan to add another tablet when I see one I think is worth

it -- BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I haven't seen anything that particularly catches my

eye yet.

REALITY CHECK: Get that G-Tablet out and get back to whatever you do best.

VS may need prodding.....but we're still in business!!! :)

[G Tablet General] K J Rad:
I am so glad you haven't given up preaching entirely, Rev. I've been thinking the same thoughts all day and just couldn't articulate them.
[G Tablet General] BoulderGeek:
I kicked $5 to roebeet, just as a thank you for being so involved and proactive.

I hope he uses it for the tasty beverage of his choosing, and comes back when the stress has dissipated. :D
[G Tablet General] clintre:
I agree that it has created some negative sentiment towards the G-Tab, that should be focused more on VS, which I think was the intent. However I think in a way it needed to be said if for no other reason to grab VS's attention, which is seems to have done.

I just wish people could separate the Viewsonic support issue from the device itself, which VS does not even build to begin with. I purchased mine knowing I was going to "technically" void the warranty as soon as I got it. I literally purchased the Gtab because of XDA. I also purchased it to watch and wait over the next several months to a year to see the dust settle on Android tablets and see who is really putting out a high end on.

I really like my Gtab and had no illusions on what I was getting. I researched for over a month before I got it. Viewsonic was not even a consideration.

On the other hand I understand the issue that is being fought here with VS. We need the fundamental software support to help the dev of the other roms and to provide the actual customer support, especially for the thousands of Wooters who purchased this and not really wanting to go the custom route.

In the end I think the post was needed, but agree that people are getting a bit too negative for really no reason. I mean why would you dump a device that you already paid for. It is not like you are hurting the company that you already purchased it from.

On a positive note you have Vegan Ginger being released today and looking down right awesome. CM7 is looking awesome, TNTLite, gAdam, etc. This is one hell of a community device.

I am not going anywhere.
[G Tablet General] dfin13:
Well, no supports means no updated NVidia drivers, which means a substandard video viewing experience with Gingerbread (and Honeycomb, if it comes), which would be a good reason for ditching it for a different tab. Some people can live without it, but I do watch video files on mine. And don't quote me on this, but no support also means no hope for using both cores on 2.3 and above.

Whether I stay or go depends on the price of the Transformer. If it's too much, I will live with the screen. 2.2, and the various quirks for a while longer.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I was a little concerned that a number of people were ready to jump ship because of my weekend rant - that wasn't the effect I wanted it to have.

But, if anything else, it seems to have shaken things up a bit over in Viewsonic - so it might turn out OK. Just sit tight and let's see if they run with the ball, now.

I agree that losing ongoing support (if it happened) wouldn't suddenly make your device useless. But, it is still important to have vendor updates as they have the source code and we still make mods off their releases (especially me, with TNT Lite / TwoTapsX). For example, they'd have a better chance of pressuring Nvidia to change their stance on Harmony than any of us in XDA will.
[G Tablet General] D Wright:
Boy, all of this really does remind be of my early Amiga days.

Look what happened there.
[G Tablet General] butchconner:
D Wright,

I had been through two operating systems with Heathkit and CP/M before "DOS" ever

came along!!! I remember MP/M and CNIX and quite a few others.

I can also name a pile of brands I used over the years.

Bottom line -- your happiness with whatever hardware or software you have is based

on what you do with it and not how much it costs or how long it lasts.

[G Tablet General] sjmoreno:
I don't put any weight to what most people say here. Their opinions change with the winds. Like many others, I bought my gTab after I read up in this forum with the full intent of never running stock. So I never expected anything at all from Viewsonic. In fact, I have almost erased from my memory that these tablets came with a Viewsonic logo on it since I have had a rear skin on both of my gTabs for the past four plus months. And I also haven't been running any of the TnT roms.

No matter the hardware these tablets wouldn't be as useful without the fine work of the modders and developers here at xda. While I do have a special fondness for my gTabs, I will sell one of them when the Asus Transformer is released here in the States.
[G Tablet General] enigma0456:
I don't understand

I don't understand some people. They buy the g-tab, at a great price, with dev support like you'd never dream of getting from Microsoft or most other companies. Its all FREE and as soon as some new buzz comes out there is a rash of "I'm dumping my g-tab to go buy ...." Yesterday the g-tab was great and today it is a piece of junk???? Meh.... those are fanboys and they probably should just go buy an iPad that they can flash around Starbucks to impress their friends. Personally, I bought my first g-tab to try an android tablet to see what you could do with one. I bought the second one because there was just so much cool stuff to try. Like everything else, the day you buy it it becomes "obsolete" but if it does what you want it to do, who cares? I'm quite happy that I still have XP on my laptop because it is stable and not as annoying as the os that came after it. Ubuntu is great on my netbook. Now, if only I could decide which g-tab rom is the best!!! Trying the vegan gingerbread now to see what happens with that... Go Devs!:)
[G Tablet General] sjmoreno:
Ha! I know what you mean. If I only had one gTab and didn't have the means to spend another $400 on another tablet I would definitely hold on to mine for a long time due to the great hardware. But fortunately I have 2 gTabs and can sell one off to buy the Asus when it drops and spring for the difference out of pocket.

I travel for work often and currently I take my gTab with me along with a mini keyboard. My kids use the other gTab for games and reading. So my plan is to sell off my gTab and buy the Asus with the keyboard dock to take along on my trips. The functionality, quality, and versatility of the Transformer is really appealing to me. Plus it seems several of the xda devs are also planning on buying one. In the end, I will still have a gTab in the house so hopefully I will have the best of both worlds.
[G Tablet General] davidukfl:
my only real concern before spending the money on this tablet is the lack of nvidia support and drivers. I can live without a good stock rom, hell I haven't ran a stock ROM on my droid x since i bought it. My big concern is the fact that any gingerbread roms and future honeycomb roms aren't gonna have the proper video drivers and will always have lagging issues.

Granted video playback isn't the only reason i'm gonna buy a gtablet, but it's certainly an important feature, and a future of only being able to run froyo based roms is a little disappointing.
[G Tablet General] bso44:

[G Tablet General] dfin13:
I think that's an unfair assessment. For $100 (speculation...) extra, or more if tax is charged, you can buy a far superior in almost every way Asus Transformer. I don't think anyone has said the gTab is junk, but it pales in comparison to the tabs being released with a slightly higher price point (USB port is not important to me ...). The gTab made me realize I really wanted a tablet, but I've also had to fight this thing to get it to work properly, and frankly I'm a little tired of the battle.

Do I want an IPS screen, higher resolution, more memory, GPS, manufacturer support, and Honeycomb for ~ $100 more? Yes, yes I do. I do appreciate all the work the devs have done here, but I'm moving on the minute a date is set for the Transformer.
[G Tablet General] jvigier:
Could you elaborate with details on why you are concerned about the lack of support in the future for video drivers?

(not a rhetorical question, I just haven't seen anything pointing to that yet)

Thanks
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Of course we'd have that many people ready to jump ship. People like to be melodramatic. I've been lite-fixing people's computers for years. That's what they do. They like to exaggerate and complain.

Case in point. I read a lot of reviews online before buying the gtab. One of the more ridiculous complaints I saw people complaining about the gtab is the black area around the screen. What immediately came to my mind was (1) if there was no black area around the screen where are you going to hold the device? and (2) the ipad has a hell of a lot more black area around the screen.

I agree with you that what viewsonic is doing (total media blackout) is annoying. I still don't understand why they are so reluctant to push this device. With the hardware specs, VS is literally sitting on a goldmine with the gtab. And with just a little bit more software support, the gtab could very well be a direct competitor to the xoom and ipad2.

That said, for those of you who want to jump ship, that is your choice. I highly recommend the ipad2 or the xoom.

sry, but I retunred my Gtab to TigerDirect

First: the software sucks, most of them are not designed for tablet and I cant even play angry bird with proper click!

Second: the battery life sucks, I read the review which saying 8 hours playing time, the truth is 8 Hours standby time!

Third: I need a good stock ROM.

I will just wait for Asus TF

100 bucks more, bettet product, better screen better support, Asus softwar support is good
[G Tablet General] carljanderson:
At this point in time, I dont think this is true. It could have been true had this device had a sucessful launch. Now, all of the buzz surrounding Android tablets has been focused on Honeycomb. With nvidia indicating Harmony drivers will not be released for Gingercomb, the gtablet suffers from an almost insurmountable competitive disadvantage. (IMHO)

Mine isnt going anywhere right now, as it does what I want it to and I love what the devs are doing
