[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuryriderX:
is your phone the north american i9000m or the international? international phones have no 850 support. any bell modem (jl2, kc1, etc) will automatically enable 850.

go into the band selection, then wcdma, then pick 850 only. if the phone switches to the 850 band then your good, just go back in and pick automatic
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelhon:
My phone used to be the i9000m but I changed it to the i9000. It doesn't connect to the 850 network, when I select the 850 only.

I used the jl2 modem with jvk and now jvb. Works great. You will not be able to get 850 with a european modem.

The problem is I am running the UGKC1 modem which is our new one in Canada.

UGJK4 should work for you.

If you can't find it search for "Perka's File Stash". I can't post url's yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Videonut:
It's still an i9000m, hardware wise, so you should try reflashing the modem. There is no reason kc1 shouldn't work on your device
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuryriderX:
Wait wait wait. Isn't the international version missing the hardware support for 850? If it's missing the hardware it's not going to matter what modem you use! That's your problem.

And it is not true at all that you cannot get 850 on a european modem. I have an i9000m, and have used several european modems (jvk, jvb, etc) with 850. A few steps are required to enable it, that's all. Search and you'll find them.

So did you try flashing the modem or complete rom again?

You could try flashing back to UGJL2 froyo again, then reflash Gingerbread. Kinda strange you can't enable wcdma850 in the combi menu. Did you confirm in the about phone settings that kc1 is the baseband?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelhon:
I am going to try to flash to kc1 entirely. I can enable the 850 band, I just can't connect to the 850 band network.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelhon:
I guess this is a provider problem. I finally broke down and phoned our incompetant technical support and they said they have had some problems with the KC1 update on the 850 band, now I have to use an inferior JL2 to work on our 850 band.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsWLM:
should I wipe cache and dalvik if I'm flashing multiple add ons?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Yes, absolutely. As a general rule of thumb, you want to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing anything at all. It will never hurt anything at all, and you don't lose any information after wiping cache's. It just takes a bit longer to boot up after wiping dalvik, that's all. You want to do a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik cache) before flashing any new rom, for optimal performance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
It takes longer, but I like to flash one thing at a time, that way if something goes wrong, you know what caused it. For a number of things, flashing multiple mods in one recovery session is ok, I just find it safer to do one at a time, wiping dalvik and cache each time.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsWLM:
all of the downloads have worked except the themed launcherpro. do you know what might cause this? i wiped everything, installed right after ROM flash, and also tried minimally wiping cache and dalvik, but neither gives me the launcher...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
Try unzipping the zip on your comp or extracting it on your sd card from your phone and getting the .apk file for LP and installing that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Did you activate Launcher Pro, after you flashed it? To do that, go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications. Then select the "all" tab. Then scroll down and find HTC Sense. Tap it. Then scroll down and press the button that says "clear defaults". Then press the Home button. It should ask you to use LP or Sense. Choose LP, and check the default box. Then to change back to sense, do the same thing, except find Launcher Pro under the "all" tab, and hit clear defaults.

I don't use a task manager. I use minfreemanager instead. I don't know why sometimes on some rom's I can set it to apply on boot and on others I cannot.

[Windows Phone 7 General] cgibsong002:
Appears to be the first WP7 app with voice navigation (just included in the new update). Has anyone tried it out after this new update? I'm wondering how good it is.

I'm also wondering if anyone knows what kind of approximate rate charges are involved with the use of this or other similar GPS apps (ex. 10Mb per hour).
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
It can't be good by default: it uses your 3G data connection and Bing maps so it slow, inaccurate and pricey (if you exceed your data plan).

BTW, any (including most wanted to hack Navigon) currently existing WP7 gps apps a complete BS even compared with cheapest $30 standalone auto gps. My suggestion: don't try to use any of 'em in big city (like a Boston), all of 'em bad and can cost you a troubles.

So, WP7 still doesn't have gps solution at all :mad: Damn MS with closed sources & API's...
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Closed Sources have nothing to do with this, and the APIs aren't closed. They just either don't exist or are hidden so deeply that developers cannot access them (Microsoft does use Native Code for much of WP7, even though 3rd party developers can not).

Also, Bing is fine in a big city like Chicago. I know because I went there with my WM6.5 device a while back and the voice nav was very much on point. Stop spreading FUD. Bing has holes in other countries, but in the US is quite good...
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
FYI, I'm not flooding but just publish my own impressions based on my own real experience. I've especially tried all existing solutions working in Boston (last attempt was yesterday, riding to Somerville). All these applications working very bad: no construction info at all, wrong routes, bad accuracy, awful UI. Navigon shows a little better result but still no comparison with my TomTom XL 335SE (costs me a $29.99 + tax on huge local sale) at all!

I don't know which criteria is "fine" for you (may be it's just "Oh my God, it works and showing something on map!") but it's absolutely not affordable for me (I do have an experience and example to compare).
[Windows Phone 7 General] arkavat:
1) You haven't even tried the app suggested by OP. Please don't pass judgement. I am sure developer is doing his best. Try it... if you still don't like it.. fair enough.

2) I will beg to differ about bing being inaccurate than likes of google. Navteq maps have always worked much better than teleatlas in US.

3) APIs are there and more are APIs are coming with Mango. Open or closed source has nothing to do with it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jabtano:
I use A&B . But I did give this nav app a try. On the trial it only sets routes within a 4 mile radious but thats because it's the trial. Now indicators for speed and sistance sits on the top on map and it's rather small and hard to see at a glance. Where as on A&B it's on the side and much larger and easyer to see at the glance.

The maps about the same. as A&B overall the interface UI on A&B is much better. it's really a shame that WP7 does not have a full blown Nav app. I would much rather be able to download the maps and have it always on route even when I'm out of range of towers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Forget it. It's based on Bing Maps, so totally crap and inaccurate anyway (except if you live in the US).
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
Did you read my post above? Seems like not. I don't judge anyone either, just posted my own opinion.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
Nothing wrong with this application. No mapping software has 100% map accuracy, always takes time to update maps. Within the trial limitations I found the journey I planned was accurate with routing and location, but could improve the featureset.

Not sure there's too much to complain about for $3 and obviously anyone not on an unlimited data plan shouldnt be looking at offline navigation applications.
[Windows Phone 7 General] cgibsong002:
Thanks guys. I agree and I have a Garmin. I'm very upset that there's no map based GPS's out as of now, since I'm on a limited data plan. I was just curious. If it was a really good app, it might be worth to use in the event that I need it in an emergency. If it's no better than A-B though, why bother. Thanks for the input guys.

Message from the developer

Hi guys,

I´m the developer of Silver Navigator. Thanks a lot for your comments.

Any question or suggestion is really welcome.

SN do not pretend to be a perfect replacement for full GPS navigation devices like TomTom, etc, but I think for the price it´s a very useful option, when no TomTom is available.

In addition to that, it´s able to calculate your aprox. position from cell tower triangulation, pretty useful when no GPS reception is available. I´m also already adapting it to Mango (next release of Windows Phone), which will include digital compass and a much more precise calculation of position and orientation. It works perfectly, and it´s particularly useful for navigation when walking, as you don´t need to move to know what direction you are headed.

Later this week, I´m releasing v 1.2, which includes many more improvements. Among others:

Local Searches (business, shops, etc), improved user interface, "clear route" function included, improved GPS accuracy, voices volume increased, etc.

You can follow SN progress at Facebook. Just search for "Silver Navigator".

Thanks !!!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] fishbowlhead:
Needs orientation via the compass, ie like tomtom, google nav, in order to be useful while driving.

As it is its unusable while in a car unfortunately.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
How about "no cell tower reception" (for me it's happened much more frequently; GPS signal is available everywhere except downtowns with skyscrapers)? And did you tested your app with cell tower triangulation in places like a downtowns of big cities? ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] dr_strangetrick:
I just tried it this morning (Birmingham UK)

I have a good data connection but the map downloading is way too slow to be used for driving. All I had was a yellow arrow against a blurry background.

It could really do with being able to cache map data possibly via WiFi before you set off to avoid these issues.

Also the screen was North up instead of being track up and the unfortunately the quality of the speech/instructions was very poor.

But it does work and apart from buying Navigon this is the only other real sat nav application for WP7. I have seen posts for A-to-B but you cant download from the marketplace so hopefully it will improve.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tsmith90:
It seems that when mango is released that more turn-by-turn apps will come out.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Nice

I have used this for a month now and like it. I suggest that the triangle indicating the cars position point in the direction and orientation of the phone, and that there be an option for the display to point either north or in the direction of travel. Just a suggestion to improve an already good application.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Aaron McCarthy:
This really does look to be one of the better nav programs available right now. I'd by this if it had support for 3d view much like tomtom, navigon, magellen etc. A - B had this and it was by far the best angle to get directions in when driving.

Any plans on adding this feature and if so is there a timeline?

[HD2 General] Moon2:
In a nutshell, would a Tmobile US HD2 work in the UK under the virgin network?

I've been looking at the frequency that virgin's running at and the supported list for the T9193, and I just want to confirm that it should work before I buy it.

Oh, and does the US version come with the AUO Display by any chance?
[HD2 General] johnerz:
It will of course need to be unlocked/sim free and to get the hsdpa/3G connection will need to support that.

As you have done some of the homework I expect by now you'll know :)
[HD2 General] Moon2:
I won't need to because most of the ones I've found on sale are already unlocked, so this would work?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I've always wanted to know,,, since the tmous network uses aws, meaning it uses both it's available utms bands, 1700 and 2100, one for up, one for down, and everyone else uses one band for both, 2100 in this case, is the tmous radio hardware capable of using one band for both?

(Also, wasn't clear from your post, but you know the t9193 is the telstra model, not tmous, right?)
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Actually, I didn't, I just assumed T9193 was the US version.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Hehe, lucky you didn't impulse buy then eh?

There would be no benefit in bringing a t9193 to the UK, since it is identical to the regular hd2( commonly called the t8585, but see below) with the exception of the 850/2100 bands instead of 900/2100, and a tiny amount of case branding.

The tmous appears to carry the same t8585 designation as the regular hd2, although it never seems to be referenced as such anywhere, and Googling t8585 always brings up the regular, never the tmous.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Yes, very lucky :)

As for why I want it, there's a lower chance of having wake up lag, and it has 1gb rom, that's all. So if possible I'd like to have this.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Again, not sure from your post which one you mean by "why I want it", though I shall assume you mean the tmous because the t9193 does NOT have 1gb rom.(as for less chance of wake-up lag,,,, hmmm, I'd take that little nugget of info with a large pinch of salt. I've been here daily for 18 months and seen absolutely NO evidence pointing to that being true, ((and indeed you are the first person I've seen saying it)))

your research now would be aimed at finding out for sure if a phone designed for aws can be used on non aws networks. I suspect it will but I for one certainly wouldn't buy until I knew for definite.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Sorry for nt being clear, but I meant the tmous, and I just think there's a better chance of it not having wake up lag, and also having an AUO display.
[HD2 General] Mister B:
I got the Tmous version & have used it in UK on Vadaphone & T-Mobile, had 3G connection but didn't give it the best of tests as was only in town for a day.

I expect it will be fine as worked perfect on european networks using 2 bands (1up, 1down).

Wil be in UK next month so will test it fully.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Ty a lot, that's all I needed, virgin is a virtual network using Tmobile, so if it works on that, then it should work fine :)
[HD2 General] Mister B:
no problem, Tmous is the beast & the later built models have revised motherboard & new screen supplier so quality/reliability is better.

Tmob bashed HTC over high unit returns & was the only thing that pushed HTC to do a sneaky revision model.

I run mine on Energy ROM & it is superb, works great in all countries & scenarios I have encountered so far.

1200Mah battery is only real big issue as on 3g HSPDA ect it uses a lot of power compared to GSM Edge.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Sounds great, I'd been thinking of jumping on the dual core bandwagon, but the cost has been holding me back, and this piece of news makes me feel better.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah you are right T-Mobile had a huge percentage of HD2 returns and exchanges. Heck even I myself had a replacement HD2 sent to me as my first one had gotten where it would take me up to ten resets to getcit to boot past the orange Windows screen. But most of the returns in my opinion were because people were use to iPhones and Android devices not Windows Mobile. And as we all know Windows Mobile is not for everybody, especially te stock Win Mo ROMs. I myself hated my HD2 the first month I had it as it was my first smartphone cause it would freeze up, close applications on it's own, turn off on it's own (sometimes), get stuck on boot up everytime I had to turn it off then back own, and took forever to load a web page. But when I flash the official update almost all of that cleared up except the damn sticking at bootup. Not long after I flashed the update (my very first flash :)) I found XDA and my HD2 became a prized possession. I have not ever so much as seen are touched a EU HD2 and I know they are probably justcas good as a TMOUS HD2, after all Cottula's HD2 is a EU lol. But just to give you some more personal feed back. My TMOUS is great. It still agrevates me sometimes but that is only because I live in an area with crappy signal. Can not give you feed back on your question about it working where you live but I can tell you that you won't regret buying a TMOUS HD2, unless you flash the wrong radio to it lol.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
I take it u mean the .51.x radios? Will prbly buy it tomorrow from ebay.

Looks like the following works fine:

Leo_Radio_2.15.50.14

Seems to be the same one I was using for my eu hd2
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah that is what I am talking about. You can not flash a radio with a 51 in it to a TMOUS. Also you can not flash a radio with these numbers in it 2.04.50.xx or 2.05.50.xx, these where the radios used in the test TMOUS HD2 devices (HTC Pro Three) and they will kill a TMOUS just like a radio with a 51 in it. You have been warned lol.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
You've made me start worrying even before I've bought it. :'(
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Good to know. Makes sense that it would work, else roaming wouldn't, but nice to have it confirmed.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Don't sweat it man, as long as you make sure the ROM you are flashing does not have one of those radios you are cool. The custom Win Mo ROMs mostly do not have radio included in them but just to be safe I would only flash a custom ROM from the HD2 T-Mobile Windows 6.5 development forum or a custom ROM that spacificaily says it is compatible with the TMOUS. All Android and WP7 ROMs do not have radios included so they are alll cool to flash. The only real ROMs you really have to watch are the official ROMs as they have radios included. If you flash a official stock ROM only use the one you get from the T-Mobile wibsite and you are gravy.
[HD2 General] Mister B:
Don't worry plenty of info on radios for TmoUS.

I'm currently testing radios for my device & usage. 2.12.50.02_2 is a well liked radio for most people. 2.15.50.14 was slated by a few intelligent HD2 users, haven't tested it myself yet.

This device is superb, just read the forums & post if you have concerns on flashing ect.
[HD2 General] Moon2:
Just read through "everything that is Tmous", and it all seems to be fine.

I was just worried about which radio flashing and bricking it, but the ones I used for eu seem to work just fine, and I have no intention of putting on wm6.5, its either going to be wp7/android/dual-boot.

Ty for the help
[HD2 General] Mister B:
custom WM6.5.5 is actually very good, although WP7 & Android is a good combo.

Have fun.
[HD2 General] :

I'm really nobody special but just thought I'd post my thoughts here. I've been an avid Android user since fall 2009. I went from the Sprint Hero to the Eris, OG Droid, Incredible, DX, and then made the jump to VZW's iPhone in Feb 2011.

The iPhone 4 is a great phone, but I miss Android. My wife has a D2 and wants my iPhone 4. Well 4g is just now being turned on in my area....so........she has approved my purchase of the TB as long as I sell her D2 to help cover the cost!

She gets the iPhone and can Facetime with her sister (they live 3 hours apart).

I'm touching base here, obviously I'm sure that most people are happy with their TB but please let me know what you think?

Is it worth the effort?

What are some things I can do to prep for battery life? I'm considering a second battery and have read about disabling 4g, but I'm not as likely to do this in my area now.

On another note...I'm doing this partly because of the discounted rate we get right now and I'd like to make sure that unlimited 4g data is on there at our current rate.

My last note: I'd never take the D2 over the iPhone...just saying ;) If this doesn't work out I may consider a switch to Sprint when the EVO 3d comes out :D
