Lol!!!! Thanks. I'm not got gonna be a part of this. I'm assuming that the mods should be coming and minute. I don't report but I have seen threads like this shut down without anyone reporting anyone. I cant be live sparksco actually posted a thread O_O
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Yeah that's tapatalk for you I'll get it later tonight
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Alright thanks. I'm about to get on my PC in about 30 minutes and I'll look for guides.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Does anyone have a mirror to this ROM? :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
I would actually miss strapped allot. Reply to the closed thread.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Huh?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] megaghostgamer:
I'd hate to bump a old thread but I really did like this one, all time favorite because of all the settings it had and the interface, the only thing I didn't like was dock and some pink icons but other then that this Rom was incredible!! I'm surprised its only got 1 thank. I'm going to thank it too here in a bit but anyways I'm uploading a mirror for everyone. Enjoy, hope everyone had a great Easter oh and by the way I'm ditching Spectrum development and coming back to y'all. ;) . I miss y'all bad, y'all are a great community, over there people were just pathetic and took credit for stuff they didn't really do, I've seen that happen here but not at a extreme case as over there, but yup I'll be coming back :)

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
Hey Mega, I was wondering if you still had the info from the thread Strapped mentioned here. When I click on it XDA says its not a valid link. I'm always looking for more information on porting. :)

Edit: This is pretty cool! I guess it was out when I first started with XDA and missed it. I think I'll de-feminize it by getting rid of all the pink stuff though. ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
I've been playing around with this ROM this morning before work and its been a lot of fun. :) So far I've tried 2 kernels and gotten rid of almost all of the pink stuff and customized the battery icon. If anyone is interested I can upload a copy for everyone. Bluetooth doesn't work yet though. I can add the options I have in StockMod too. Again if anyones interested.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] megaghostgamer:
That would be awesome, thanks for the great work! :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
Ive tried to get in touch with the guy who originally put this together but he hasn't responded. Does anyone think there would be a problem re-releasing this? I'll give proper credit and link back to this thread...

Im waiting on my 32gig micro SD but can I still flash Nvflash and a rom without a SD card ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CrazyCharlie:
Currently cwm recovery requires that you have an sd card to flash a rom. It won't read the internal memory. You can flash the recovery with NVflash without an sd no problem though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Yes you can, they updated so recovery now reads from internal memory.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheToiletSpaula:
Hey Guys,

I owned a Desire Z for about 3 months and it was second hand so it did not last me too long...never buying a second hand phone again, but anyways I am looking to move on to another phone.

I thought that the Desire Z was a great phone especially with the qwerty keyboard, but I am stuck on making a decision for my next phone.

The ones I have in mind are Motorola Atrix and Samsung Galaxy S. Those two are the main ones that I am interested in. Others that I have been taking a look at include the Nexus S and Incredible S which I have heard aren't as good as the atrix and galaxy.

Hopefully you guys can help me out with this!

Btw, would the atrix or galaxy S have the Locations App like my Desire Z did? It was nice to be able to use a GPS without a data connection.

Take care,
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sephiroth1439:
nexus s is pretty much a samsung galaxy s with a curved screen and google branding. I would go with nexus s though (as much as I dont like samsung lol)

If it were me and my phone suddenly crapped out on me, I would dust off my G1(HTC Dream) and bite my lip for a couple of months because 2011 t-mobile roadmap supposedly leaked and theres a dual core qwerty on the list for July 6th (don't quote me on that lol). I'm talking about the MyTouch 4G Slide/HTC Doubleshot.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
What happened to your Z? Its a pretty solid phone, so I personally expect to have mine for a while. I've had good luck with HTC phones. I have a 3.5 year old Kaiser, and a 1.5 year old Rhodium that are both still working just great.

I'm not a big fan of Motorola phones. Every time they make a "flagship" phone, it gets hyped and seems to sell well in the US. Maybe because they are an American company, and a longtime and well-known cell phone manufacturer. And I want to give them a chance, but every time I pick up one of their phones, it just feels disappointingly cheap and clunky. I actually haven't played around with the Atrix in person, but others on here have commented it has a similar cheap plastic feel to past Moto phones, like the Droid. So it would be a step forward from the G2 in terms of CPU, but a step backward in physical design. I'd suggest trying one out in person, if you haven't already, and decide for yourself.

The Galaxy S (and Nexus S, which is the same phone in many ways, as previously pointed out) is a decent phone. But it would be a lateral move. Similar specs to the G2, aside from the bigger (and AMOLED) screen. Plus, people have had lots of issues with Galaxy S line and CPU lag and GPS problems. So you might look into those topics if you are seriously considering the Galaxy S. Bottom line, if you're looking for an upgrade, the Galaxy S isn't one. The phone is almost a year old now. Better phones are coming out now, if you can hold out, it would probably be worthwhile to wait. You haven't mentioned your country, carrier, but the HTC Sensation might be a candidate. Similar to the Desire HD, but with a dual core 1.2 GHz Snapdragon.

Locations is an HTC app, so no, Galaxy S and Atrix don't have it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max):
Don't take the Galaxy S, the Incredible S or the Nexus S, get a new generation phone based on tegra 2 (Atrix) or anything else with 2 cores (i.e. HTC sensation)

Galaxy S and others are good phones, but just a little "old" compare to the new phones.

The only single core you should consider is the Nexus S, because you'll be sure to have always the latest version of android.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hookguy:
ive recently bought a desire z and sold my galaxy s. desire z is basically much better, build quality speed and everything wise.
[Blade General] Charlie3999:
Ok guys I really need your help. I messed up flashing and because I did things in the wrong order. Here's what I did:-

1. I upgraded gen1 to gen 2

2. I then wiped data/factory reset without flashing clockworkmod recovery.

3. The phone then rebooted and stayed on the green man screen and thats it.

4. I managed to finally find a clockworkmod that would work v3.0.1.4 none of the others came on, it just stayed at the green man screen.

5. I try flashing and all it say's:-

Install from sd card

Finding update

opening update

E:Can't open/sdcard/update.zip

(no such file or directory)

Installation aborted.

I did another phone at christmas and that worked fine because I did it in the right order. But I do remember when I flashed the clockworkmod it was green and upsidedown, but I can't find one that does that now.
[Blade General] WeeJockMacFeegle:
Is the rom you're trying to install called update.zip? If not then choose the option "Install rom from sd card" and select the rom.
[Xoom General] homer667:
hi folks,

I discovered following "feature" in the browser.

open a new tab and type "about:debug", nothing will happen on the screen, but when you tab options there is a new field called debug.

here you can alter the UAString permanently WITHOUT rootpermissons.

So this feature is quite nice for users with locked devices.

You can even disable GLRendering and speed up some pages.

I wanted to post this in the dev section, but I don't have the permissions.

So please could a mod move this post, THX.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/19/verizon-finally-killing-unlimited-data-plans-this-summer/

On the positive side, We will get the iPhone 5 the same time as AT&T... :rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt General] rajuabju:
What isnt clear to me from the article...

Will existing users be forced into a tiered plan, or allowed to remain on their existing plan?

Knowing VZW, I wont be shocked if we're all herded to some crappy capped plan.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
As long as you don't sign a new contract or change anything with your data plan you should be good. They really can't just change your plan without your permission.
[Thunderbolt General] DroidTh3ory:
Not if you never leave it... Grandfather clause. :)
[Thunderbolt General] micromania:
what if i get a new phone after two years? have to agree to the new speed limit terms?
[Thunderbolt General] Old MuckenMire:
This sucks...I was hoping they would change their minds and keep an unlimited plan.

It was the reason I left AT&T after 10+ years.... because I could keep my unlimited data while switching carriers.

I'll be with Verizon as long as I'm grandfathered but will leave if they take it away.
[Thunderbolt General] DroidTh3ory:
As long as your plan doesn't change you're good. Only other way (by law) is in case of a straight buy out of Verizon. (IE... T-Mobile/AT&T).
[Thunderbolt General] Makaveli1490:
This lowers their price right

400 MB?
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
What if I buy my next phone outright, can I stay grandfathered? (I have estimated that buying it outright may be more cost-effective versus a tiered plan.)
[Thunderbolt General] Old MuckenMire:
I would assume yes. This is what I did on AT&T and I kept my original plan. You just have to make sure any rep that ever accesses your account doesn't accidentally remove the unlimited plan because once it's gone the option to add it gets removed from the system. At that point it becomes a real ***** to get it added back and requires the carrier's highest level of tech support to get it added back.
[Thunderbolt General] DroidTh3ory:
You can get your phone however you want... As long as you keep your plan, you are Grandfathered.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
As long as you already have an unlimited 4G plan. Moving from unlimited 3g to unlimited 4G required me to change my plan, so when Verizon moves to limited plans, I'll bet you'll be stuck with either keeping your unlimited 3g or moving to a limited 4G plan.

Sent from my Bolt
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
If you have the Thunderbolt, but your primary area doesn't have 4G, are you still on a 4G plan? I only get 4G when travelling on business.
[Thunderbolt General] YankInDaSouth:
Yeah, I think once you get a 4G device you're required to get the 4G plan ...
[Thunderbolt General] CJeep:
What 4G plan? My bill with a tbolt is exactly the same as before.
[Thunderbolt General] ryanrp:
This makes me sad... but we saw it coming.
[Thunderbolt General] gdi2290:
Could I buy a thunderbolt now for the unlimited 4G then upgrade my phone next year and maintain the unlimited plan? If so I might as well buy one now. I'm on the 1400minute $10 data Unlimited data/txt family plan I don't want to lose it. Could I buy the Thunderbolt to get a 4G plan and return it? :p
[Thunderbolt General] PJnc284:
Only the Verizon higher-ups can answer that. There's been no word on if/how they'll grandfather. As for the latter question, you'll go back to whatever you had if you return the phone. Technically there's no differentiation between 3G and 4G plans at least on the user facing side. They may have a different feature code or something on their end but right now it's the same email/web for smartphone that the 3G devices have. That makes a real gray area and no one really knows if you're good until you upgrade or beyond or if it'll kick you to tiered if you simply purchase a phone off-contract and try to activate it.
[Thunderbolt General] mrzood:
If they change your plan mid contract you can generally get out with no ETF.
[Thunderbolt General] mbrown3460:
so i heard. Somebody up that Verizon contract so I can save it on my cpu just incase they try to up my unlimited data plan
[Thunderbolt General] gdi2290:
Verizon said themselves that the Xoom (and Thunderbolt) is good for their unlimited 4G data. Since Tab 10.1 is coming out June 8th I can assume thats when they start rolling out 4G. Tab 10.1 4G update 4G for Xoom and perhaps even Bionic with 4G. I kind of want to know, so I can act fast I was hesitate on buying the Thunderbolt with a 1 year contract (regret that decision). I plan on skipping DualCore now since the Incredible 2 was more like an Incredible 1.5. My plan changed and now I wait for Ice Cream Sandwich with Quad hopefully HTC gets **** together with great Hardware.
[Thunderbolt General] kurttrail:
Technically, my plan said 3g internet, before I upgraded to my bolt, and now it says 4g.

And when I bought my bolt on Verizon's web site, I had to literally had to accept the plan change from 3g to 4g, so there is no grey area as far as I'm concerned.

I'm glad I got my unlimited 4g plan grandfathered in.

[Thunderbolt General] sixtythreechevy:
Hello Sprint!

I might move to Sprint.
[Thunderbolt General] Speeddymon:
Where they charge you $10/mo for 4g, and you rarely have 4g service? No thx, I will pas on that "deal".
[Thunderbolt General] justibasa:
Yeah its a Premium data charge for all smart phones. Not a "4G" fee. I work for sprint so I know Jackass. Its still cheaper then everyone else.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
Jk

Whether or not they are really a "jackass" or not, this is a realllllllly bad endorsement for the company.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
Ummmm, since when is the xoom and Thunderbolt on the same data pricing structure? When I was looking to buy one they said it would be 50 for 5 gigs of data.
[Thunderbolt General] mi7chy:
I just dropped Sprint today for slow as molasses 3G and spotty or non-existent 4G but things may change in the future. If Verizon go tiered data will likely drop them and go with competitor. Vote with your $$$.
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
Ooooh, tough guy here, calling someone a jackass on a message board. :rolleyes:

"Premium" data fee, lol. Yeah the 4.3" screen, 1GHz processor, and 8MP camera were the "premium's" you got for paying that extra each month.
[Thunderbolt General] 1234567188:
You'll get unlimited 4G alongwith limited 3g.
[Thunderbolt General] orkillakilla:
The Verizon Rep I talked to when I got the Thunderbolt said that I will get unlimited 4G for the duration of my contract. He said I'm "grandfathered" into it, so I'm not worried about it for the next 2 years.

My plan on My Verizon shows 4G internet access and says Unlimited Data. Sweetness
[Thunderbolt General] Nefariouss:
My Verizon plan is a whoping 6$ more then the same Sprint plan and I can say that LTE > Sprint Wimax. Coverage and speeds are 10x better in the Houston area.
[Thunderbolt General] eallan:
Doubt it seriously.
[Thunderbolt General] nosympathy:
was gonna say, with my discounts from the company I work for, I don't have but a 2-3 dollar difference every month, and unlike sprint, 3G works, and 4G actually exists. It isn't a myth. lol. I had 23-25% discounts on both services, and I will take Verizon over sprint any day. Sadly, I had better service from AT&T than Sprint.
[Thunderbolt General] techspecs:
+1 Same story with me
[Thunderbolt General] my_username:
The only reason I bought the Thunderbolt was to grandfather into unlimitted 4g...on my Alltel plan, no less.
[Thunderbolt General] Makaveli1490:
That's interesting lol

I pay more than my man who bill is 85. My bill about the same but he got unlimited messages. His 3g work fine but he never use 4g cause it murders his Evo... and its not reliable anyway

I dont talk on the phone just text. He and I communicate through google chat. And the main person I text like 800-1000 texts is with verizon so I went with the 500 plan. I noticed my data is seriously high when I checked it. I also downloaded a rom 200 MB with 4g
[Thunderbolt General] scook9:
I currently have my Incredible and unlimited 3G plan. I am getting a Thunderbolt next Week off contract and want to activate it on my plan. Will this limit the Thunderbolt to 3G or will it change my plan to unlimited 4G? My understanding is that aparently there are 2 different sku's in the verizon system for unlimited data....4g and not 4g (not 4G being older plans like my current one?)
[Thunderbolt General] mchaos:
When my contract is up, if they don't have unlimited then I will go with some one who does the bastards.
[Thunderbolt General] techspecs:
They might make you take the 4g when you activate it.
[Thunderbolt General] squeakyl:
they will most definitely require you to activate the 4G data plan when you try to activate the phone
[Thunderbolt General] shawncrobbins:
So, when they got rid of new every two, did they make it so you have to sign a new contract to get a new phone?
[Thunderbolt General] scook9:
Ya, you only get the 2 year price with a new 2 year agreement (based off what plans are currently available at that time)

I really hope they will let me up my plan from unlimited 3g to 4g without having to pay an ETF since technically I am killing the existing plan and starting a new one :(
[Thunderbolt General] Atst44:
At least for now:

You can change you plan with Verizon at any time and incur no ETF as long as you maintain basic service. (Assuming you didnt not do the required data plan promotion... I did that on 3g and now have 4g and did not pay an ETF.)
[Thunderbolt General] bunklung:
Does anyone know any iPhone users from AT&T?

I know they were grandfathered, but didn't AT&T grandfather them beyond their original 2-year contract?

The general opinion is that you are safe until your contract ends with the Thunderbolt. Again, I think AT&T users were grandfathered AFTER their contract ended, so long as they didn't change plans.

Am I wrong here?

THEN, I could have swore there was HUGE uproar when iPhone 2/3/3GS users were told they had to drop their grandfathered unlimited data plans in order to upgrade to the iPhone 4. I remember AT&T backed off on the requirement that changing/upgrading your phone would cause you to LOSE unlimited data.

Am I wrong here?

Obviously AT&T and Verizon are different companies, but who's to say they don't do the same thing as far as grandfathering is concerned?

I know there are still Sprint users out there with the older PCMCIA/USB modems that have unlimited data.
[Thunderbolt General] scook9:
That is exactly what verizon will do as well. You will have the unlimited 4g plan as long as you do not start a new contract. At the end of your 2 years you simply go month to month on the existing plan. Getting a phone at the subsidized price will require a new contract while will be limited to what is presently available at that time, but if you get your phones 3rd party or full price and do not renew, you can keep your existing month to month unlimited 4g plan - that is my plan going forward.
