Yeah, gave it editor's choice which is huge for this reviewer. She's extremely nit picky so I think this says a lot IMHO.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aironeous:
Let's be nice guys. When the girl is that bad it shows much better character on your part if you just ignore it. Just please refrain and no comments about her and lets concentrate on the phone.

I'd love to see an anandtech review because their super "balls to the walls thorough review" will leave all of us satified for example look at the 2x review here

Ok I cant post the link so i guess google optimus 2x and anandtech
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kampf:
engadget reviewed the Optimus 2X and was pretty hard on it because of the software quibbles the LG skin was exhibiting, namely browser issues.

The G2x is the same hardware, but a very different, hands-off software treatment from LG. It's got Tegra Zone from nvidia and some T-Mobile apps, but that's it. It's a G-phone in the truest sense, but I wish it was a Nexus phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
LG has yet to have a Nexus so it could have been a great one. The Nexus S was/is a joke IMO (as an upgrade to the N1).

This seems like it is Nexus worthy. First phone to have enough upgraded hardware to make me want to upgrade.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kampf:
So lets just call it the Nexus X then :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] short/y:
I'm with you. I've stuck with my Nexus One for over a year waiting for something upgrade-worthy and the Nexus S with its lack of expansion just didn't cut it. Yeah, I'm something of a packrat cuz my 32G card is almost full but when it gets tight I can delete a couple of nandroids and get back a gig or two.

I'm down with that.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibou92:
Hi everyone, i've been having problems with my GPS on my HTC Desire a8181 here and I just don't dont understand why.

The phone I had before (HTC Touch Diamond 2) had GPS as well and although it wasnt as powerful a phone as this baby, it actually got the job done for me.

My phone is rooted and "S-OFF"ed.

I bought this phone and since the day i got it i couldn't get GPS to work... ever!

I am using the LeeDroid 2.3d rom

I have tried all of the roms and just can't get it to work.

I even changed the gps.conf file to the asia pool as I am located in Bangladesh.

I get 0 views and 0 locks on GPS test

I would really appreciate any type of help as I have done everything i could to get it done, and paid a lot of money to get this phone!

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You could try and update your radio to 5.14.05.17. If that has no effect then your GPS hardware maybe faulty. Also, the Diamond 2 was Windows Mobile I think. At least the Diamond was so it might be different being on Android.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Ok guys I don't want to take credit for any of this, the credits for this discovery goes to a captivate user in USA named shoman94. Here's his post.

I'm just reporting it here so a lot of canadian galaxy s users (I9000m) will save some search. The method to enable this frequencies is pretty simple but you need to have the recovery 2e version not the 3e that comes on UGJL2 firmware version from Bell. So if you still on stock firmware and want to play arround with modem version to see if you can find a better HSPA+ connection or a better GPS, I recommend you flash the last Speedmod Kernel via odin so you have clockworkmod recovery and the ability to apply update trought zip file not signed.

The method goes like this and it is good for I9000M / I9000T. (Might not work for I9000B as there is a tv tuner antenna so the modem firmware must be different and will not work for I9000 due to hardware limitation)

You need to have a modem that comes with 850 mhz enable (UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4, UGKC1). So if it's not your case just flash one of these modem first.

Put your phone on 850 mhz only mode. To do this just dial *#2263# in samsung dialer to enter the band selection utility. Enter menu [2] WCDMA Band en press on [5] WCDMA 850 (FDD V) and it should tell you W850 Only.

(Optional) You can dial *#0011# in samsung dialer to verify that you phone is realy using 850 band.

Reboot in recovery and update your modem with BVJJPD or BVJJPG version and reboot into android

(Optional) You can dial *#0011# in samsung dialer to verify that you phone is realy using 850 band.

Reboot into recovery and update your modem with the version of you choice (XXJVK or ZSJPG or XXJQ1 or BUJS1 or XXJVE etc) and reboot phone to android

Repeat step 2 and 3 and you should have network connection on 850 only. If it's not the case then you miss something and need to start again from step 1

If everything is good dial *#2263# again to reanable all the other fequencies so your phone can chose the strongest one depending on where you are. To do so select line [1] AUTOMATIC and it should said Select GSM & WCDMA All Bands. Then touch you optical menu button and hit back. Select Line [4] COMBI BANDS and click on the only one without asterisk ([8] WCDMA 850 (FDD V)).

Enjoy any modem version with 850 Mhz enable

Here a link to download the modem needed in step 1 and 4. There is also this site wich is good to find any of the i9000 modem version. Ironically they put UGJL2 modem under captivate folder even if it's use for I9000m.

Mod : It would be nice to have it pinned or at least added to the list of How to's and Guide.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Freija:
Will this also work on JVK/B? Are there any special procedures necessary for Gingerbread?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Could not say as I haven't tried GB yet. But If you can install zip from sdcard in recovery I think it will work. This would need confirmation from other user but I'm currently using JVK modem with JS8 (2.2.1) so the other way arround should work too but I can't confirm. Make a complete backup with clockworkmod (data + system) so if it doesn't work you could just restore the system partition and everything will be fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] redzone321:
could you attach the necessary modem files to your first post? or maybe a link to them

will help make it stickyable!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Done, I've added the links to find all the zip file needed to change modem trought recovery zip flashing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shedox:
will this work on i9000GT ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Freija:
In theory your process should work. However, I may be doing something wrong, but the gingerbread boot loader does not allow older-CWM flashing of the modem files I have found. If there is a kernel that allows flashing of older CWM files, or if I can find the .bin files of the BVJJPD or BVJJPG so that I can flash them with Odin, it should most likely work.

At this time though, I can tell you that flashing a Froyo modem such as UGJK4 on JVK/B Gingerbread works. This is the configuration I'm running right now, and my 850 MHz band seems fully operational.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hunky-d:
pardon the noob question but I'm on a local carrier (GCI in Alaska) and my phone doesn't get 3G when I travel to areas where it exists (I'm rural). I think they want to charge for adding 3G, even though it exists only when traveling.

I found a reference how to enable it:

androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s/258859-how-enable-850mhz-3g-network-frequency-your-samsung-i9000-galaxy-s.html

but I get an error saying the selection doesn't exist when trying to choose that 850mhz.

My carrier says it isn't enabled on SIM card. Am I S.O.L.? They have a Blackberry Plan for $30/month that says includes 3G, they have a $30 Android Smartphone plan that doesn't mention it either way, and then their basic $15 data plan I think doesn't mention it except they have a 3G option for $5 extra. Otherwise I only get Edge.

I've rooted the phone to install a couple things but haven't yet flashed any new firmware - it is buggy as heck (crashes a lot) so I'm reading the forums here - it is on baseband version XXJP2, thinking I may have to try something. Saw this thread and wondered if it would be of use to me.

thanks for patience, JD
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Never heard of this model #. GT-I9000 is the international version and it will work on it if you are refering to this version.

First you need to have a modem version that supports 850 Mhz to be able to enable it (i.e. UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4, UGKC1). Once you have one of these modem you might have to add the 850 band in combi bands screen before you can actually select "only 850" in WCDMA screen. If you have JP2 modem you will be able to enable 850 only mode but you won't get any reception.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
I wish someone could figure out what this procedure actually does, there must be some specific difference (in settings files?) after the phone has gone through this procedure. That difference could potentially then be applied directly.

I have a slight interest in trying the newer modems but can't be bothered to jump through this many hoops.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hunky-d:
thanks sp991, Gives me enough to think about for a bit.. appreciate the info! /jd
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Once you have the file on your phone it take only 2 reboot time. 10 min max. It's not that hard and I've explained every little details so every one could follow these steps. Plus you only need to do it the first time you flash a modem that's not supposed to support 850. After that you can swich to any modem and still have 850 working.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shedox:
aftter doing steps 1,2 and 3 i get no reception :confused: (if i go back to 2100 mhz, i get the signal back).

thx anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FuryriderX:
To the OP, you might want to mention that this will NOT enable 850mhz on phones that do not have the hardware support!

I have enabled 850 on jvk and jvb modems with this method, they work fine with js8 froyo.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
All the i9000 have the same hardware, it's just that software is not there on some version. Do you really think samsung will have made a chip that support 850/900/1900/2100 and another one with only 900/1900/2100. Complete waste of time to change the assembling line plus there is report of people with i9000 having reception on 850 band with this method.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
If your operator uses 2100 frequencies it might not be using 850 too. Here in north america, operators use 850 and 1900 frequencie so we need to have both available but if your operator doesn't broadcast on 850 then you wont have any network!! My guess is that your operator uses 2100/900 or 2100/1900 frequencies or maybe they only have one. Where are you from?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dcarr622:
Sorry sir, but you are completely wrong.

Samsung has a variety of modem chipsets used in their Galaxy S phones worldwide.

In the USA, Captivate has 850/1900/2100. Vibrant has 1700/1900/2100.

Elsewhere I believe the regular I9000 has 900/1900/2100 and the I9000M has 850/1900/2100.

There is not just one model and there is no way to activate a band on a phone whose modem is not compatible.

I wish all phones just had all bands (Nokia and Apple do the best job of this) but we are not there yet unfortunately. I too would think it would be more economical, but there could be other reasons like carrier lock in (i.e. in the US you can't switch a Vibrant to AT&T or a Captivate to T-Mobile without loosing 3G coverage).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shedox:
i have checked it, my operator support 850 mhz.

i guess its a hardware thing wich i cant change.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Who's your operator? I'm wondering because 850/2100 combination is pretty uncommon.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
That's why I said I9000 refering to i9000/i9000m/i9000t. The galaxy S in the US are all f***ed up. I Don't understant why samsung has to made such different model.

Then how do you explain that it's impossible to have 850 band working on any modem other than UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4 or UGKC1 without using this method. Be my guest and try to get 850 band on JPJ, JVK or any other european modem without using this methode in the first place. If you already did then it's not valid as the 850 band will stay. But I can confirm you that if you skip the part about BVJJPD or BVJJPG and then you try to turn on 850 band in the service mod with JVK you will never get reception on 850. I've tried it before I found this method on captivate forum.

So I might be wrong but I think it just a firmware limitation or compatibilities that blocks 850 bands when you have european or asian modem.

Flashing BVJJPD or BVJJPG does something special and after that you have 850 available regardless of the modem firmware you use.

If the limitation is realy hardware then samsung is complettly stupid but they seems to have learn their lesson as the SGS 2 is advertise as HSPA+ 850/900/1900/2100.

But I don't think we have any way of confirming any of these theory out of any doubt so I'll change my first post. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
Yes we can know that it is is hardware limitation because people have torn down the phones and there is a hardware difference, specifically the duplexer.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=796241#8396110

It wasn't really 'stupid' from their point of view, they likely reduced cost with a tri-band WCDMA setup compared to a quad-band one. On the revenue side I doubt it hurt sales very much at all.

It's possible that now the quad-band does not come with as much price premium as it did a year ago, or that they have decided to pay the premium to have quad band WCDMA in the SGS2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Thanks for the head up. I've already torn down my i9000m in the pat cause I droped it and I changed the screen with one from ebay. But lucky as I was, it died on froyo update and I got a replacement from samsung canada (very lucky they didn't se I've change the screen). Funny thing is I never notice it was written I9000T on one of the antenna parts.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] delly47:
why should I do this as opposed to having kc1? Does having the latest modem (jvp) with 850 enabled save battery life or something? It seems like a hassle with no reward, when I could just flash kc1 and be done with it.

I have no idea what to go for

I am stuck in a decision .... Dell streak or HTC Desire HD ????

The Desire HD Has better specs all round... dell streak having a bigger screen and better battery life (apparently)

Help?

Cheers
[General Questions and Answers] loxias:
i'd say depends on price, htc for ~50$ max differential imo; the htc is slightly superior in ram, processor, camera mp, gprs/edge, initial os, video support; inferior in battery life, screen-but just by size, not like it's superamoled. but the dell streak is thin, both "heavy".

it all depends on price, maybe you could wait and get a phone with a better processor, but depends on your use; as phone/tablet or phone with some smarts; 2g, 3g, 4g, evdo; wifi or wan? etc.
[General Questions and Answers] Purple Drama Llama:
Depends if price is an option:

Streak> DHD

If specs are more important:

Streak<DHD

If screen size is important:

This is a moot point. Both have big screens but, Streaks 5" may be too big for some where 4.3" may be better?

I prefer 4"

Dev support:

Streak<DHD

Manufacturer support:

Dell<HTC (imo)
[General Questions and Answers] Darkzy55:
Hey guys cheers

I've been playing around with them ... i think that yes whilst the dell is quite large and heavy the DHD Is too big to use in one hand yet to small to use in two ?

but could be wrong as i went into local phone shop and they had one of the big alarm things on the phone so could be that causing more bulkyness?

The specs are quite important to me and i don't really need a tablet. I Also like the idea of 720p recording and the camera is quite important to me so will probably be getting the DHD

cheers for your help guys...

So now the question is anything i should get for the DHD ... first off a decent case? any idea's? and also custom ROM ... Needed or not?... I want to stick with sense i think but may drift off and have a play with ROMs without sense.

Cheers (sorry about block of text)

Is there any shortcut for enabling or disabling bluetooth with just one click or button?

I am thinking of buying hands-free car set and I do not want to go to connection manager each time I get in or out of the car. Having bluetooth always on will drain too much battery...

Man I wish I could help you out more but I don't use Bluetooth with a handsgree car kit so no experience to fall back on. I am thinking it is either a built in thing in the Windows Mobile that can allow auto detect of a car kit and auto disconnect, I think I remember reading you had to turn the Bluetooth off manually with it to though. I also think there is a couple of apps out there that might help you out. Maybe someone else can jump in and help you with this, sorry again man.

Back in this thread, I called Verizon tech support like everyone else, but I got nowhere. I tried a few times, got a few different techs, and was told to call HTC.

I did call HTC that day (April 5th). Today, I received a call back from them stating that enough people complained about the battery issues, so they're working on a fix. Sounds like an OTA update, and he said "soon", but he also said that he really didn't have details. Off the record, he said "a few weeks", but we all know how that goes.
