[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
So yesterday i was talking to a AT&T rep, and i had asked some questions about the phone and she was reading exactly everything from phone arena. word by word, i even brought up the Atrix just to confirm my theory. yep.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] vclifton:
Not true! I get my info from here ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Haha. In positive she was reading everything from phone arena lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nickn850:
definitely not what ALL the reps do. I do all my research when i find out we are releasing a device. Not that its a bad thing that she got her info from there anyways.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rldowney:
As an Att rep, you shouldnt throw us all under a blanket because of one rep you talked to. Phone arena not an inaccurate source anyway. Just not my first choice.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Well in just saying. Like don't you all have the specs of the phone on your own system? Seems kinda weird that they use different sources.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
when i ask questions about new phones they often say "let me check" and they google it! so yes your theory may be true
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Yes this what I'm trying to say. Its not a bad thing. Just weird that some of them are not informed about a recently realeased device. Like for example when she asked what phone I had she's asked if it was a new phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AllTheWay:
What can I say not all AT&T reps are created equal. ;-)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Ha yeah true that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bullet358:
We get our info from whatever basis we can. I don't take offense to this because it's partly true. Any of you other AT&T reps (like myself) know that within our company you have the "haves" and "have-nots"...personally, if you're on XDA you're a "HAVE." You are intelligent enough to read and translate what half the stuff on this site means. Think about your counterparts in your stores/locations. We all have that handful that knows bullmoose about these devices. The "Pantechs" of the company, lol. We know how to browse the web to find what we need as AT&T doesn't necessarily give us the FULL specs on phones-just what they want us to push to our customers. So, just know going in that you have a grab bag of reps with different knowledge bases and strengths on these subjects...be prepared...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
Stores don't hire knowledgeable people.

Walk into any Best Buy, GameStop, etc. None of them know what they're talking about.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
haha yeah, when i got my atrix at best buy,

me: by any chance do you know what are my download speeds?

Sales person: 4G speeds.

me: ... thanks...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost2030:
I ask reps questions to see what they know....always been let down :( lol not sure why they work there if they don't have a clue.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
i have to say that it is better than the sprint reps i have dealt with. i was checking out the epic for a girlfriend that liked my phone and was on sprint and i didnt like the contacts, launcher, and mms apps compared to other sgs phones. the dumb biatch kept repeating that it was the best phone on the market, and im like i know i have an sgs, it's right here and att had it before you had this. and she kept trying to tell me how the epic was so great, i kept finding reasons tw3 apps were better than tw 2.5 apps and asked about call forwarding so it can use google voice as voice mail, told her it was free on att and i didnt want surcharges for call forwarding. she tried to sell me there transcription service which is also a pay service. i gave up and walked out. it wasnt that she was trying to show knowledge, it was that she had a nasty tone of voice and discredited everything i said with the comment "this is the best phone on the market" and showed me no respect. it was clear she was just regurgitating stuff fed to her because we couldn't have a discussion. my att reps like talking to me because they usually learn something.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bullet358:
I would die for a store full of "you's' bro....65% of my customers are pure retards. It's the blind leading the blind! Hahahahaha!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
idk man, but if i had my own corporation i would have everyone tip top shape regarding new devices and stuff.

"alright listen up @$%#%#$@$$%# get your sh*t straight as we are having a quiz over the Infuse this friday. you dont pass you dont work here."

[Samsung Infuse 4G] vclifton:
Hi I would like to buy an iphone 4g.

okay sure, anything specific that draws you to an iphone?

yes. it has 4g and apps.

-_-
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
^^^^^^^^^^

LMFAO!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
yeah i do see people go into the att store and ask for an iphone. not "hey im interested in a smartphone and would like to know what's out there" just "i want to get an iphone, how much is it" i just smile and think their loss.

atleast i can get insureance on my infuse and the price scales over time. the iphone is still $300 for a 32gig version. a captivate or inspire is down to $50-$100 and the infuse as a new release is $200 but is sure to go down with the release of the attain.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] circa_rider:
AMEN!!!! I definitely know how retarded most people can be coming into my store. i live in bentonville, ar home to the "wonderful" walmart and 10000 of the most snoodiest tight a**holes that seem to think iphone is the only option.

About the phone arena topic, yeah we dont get much info from this side of the fence.. if we are truly interested in the specs we usually have to go through the forums and engadget for the answers.. all we get from at&t is whats called mycsp and it only consists of dumbed down answers and flashy words to make it sound awesome.. love my infuse btw!! even though i only make a dollar when i sell one compared to my most hated phone the iphone making 25...

if a rep ever says yeah iphone is the best and doesnt have a real reason thats usually why...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
atleast the att reps that i know are interested in taking in information not fed to them by coperate. i juadt had an argument last night with my friends gf who i hate about att vs verizon and phones in general. she is a verizon rep and is going off about how spotty att data coverage is. then tells me i should pull the battery on my phone every so often. im sitting there getting 7mbps download while verizon is lucky to get 500kbps anywhere in the county, im telling her that corperate feeds her lies and out dated information and her defence is "i make $1000 a week working with this stuff" going on about how just like a computer you need to reboot it once in a while. as if embedded linux compares to windows. im looking at her like first of all the iphone doesnt even have access to the battery, so there goes the pull the battery argument right there. next the file system has to be cleanly unmounted so you better be shutting it down before you start yanking things out of the phone and if it gets shut down then why pull that battery? and that many phones are not desinged to have the battery door pulled very frequently as they have antennas in them that will lose contact. and working in retail doesnt make you a computer science major. i bet she tells people to use task killers too, like linux cant manage memory on it's own.

she was worse than the sprint reps. i know not every rep is the same and there are good and bad reps on every carrier but it seems to me that more verizon reps have this superiority thing going on. i walk into verizon store to browse. i get ignored as if the phones will sell them selves, i walk into the att store and i am asked "are you being helped" maybe not always the most knowledgeable people but atleast they try.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
the only time i had to deal with Verizon reps was when i got the Google Cr-48 or whatever its called, i was having issues with it not connecting. typical Verizon :P

but anyways, it took me about 20 minutes before i got her to understand it was a laptop from Google with Verizon connectivity. she was like a laptop card? your trying to access Google? im like just never mind can i talk to a manager. shes like okay hold on and i finally got a hold of a manager who knew what i was talking about and transferred me to their tech people who had me manually set up the process took about 2 hours
[Samsung Infuse 4G] silenzzzz:
one thing to remember ...

there is a major difference between an actual AT&T store and the local dealer store that sells AT&T ...

a lot of dealer stores try to pass themselves off as full corporate stores .. but the hiring and training are vastly different

dealer stores include radio shack, best buy, wal-mart and all the privately owned ones that say 'authorized retailer' in small print somewhere on their building...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcarter:
I recently rooted my phone and then for various reasons, decided I wanted to go back to a stock rom.

I did this by downloading a ruu exe from the below page

http://iloveabath.co.uk/index.php?dir=RUUs

RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.36.405.8_R_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_187331_signed.exe

1) Is this file the original gingerbread update from HTC? ,

2) Before I rooted my phone, I was branded to vodafone, other than the boot screen and various bundled apps, are there any differences to the vodafone ruu for example (different radio perhaps)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Yes that RUU is genuine HTC.

There maybe small differences between a Vodofone & a HTC stock ROM. You would be perfectly fine installing the HTC version.
[Galaxy S II General] snoK123:
Hey guys,

I have one big problem: I came from HD2 and restored all of my programs with titanium backup. Everything worked great, all programs installed fine - but some of them lost their data! Same issue with MyBackupPro. Effected are:

- german railway (db) railnavigator

- tapatalk

- s-banking

- color note

- keeper

The last two are very very important to me.

I think the issue is caused by an other filesystem on s2. Is there an other way to restore the program-data? Anybody an idea?

Thank you very much!

Greetz
[Galaxy S II General] snoK123:
Nobody an idea?!:(...
[Galaxy S II General] js931:
titanium has a problem with restoring/saving application data in some cases (i have the same problem with some apps). nothing you can do at the moment, maybe you should write to the developer!?

another idea: you could look for app-specific folders on your sd, maybe some apps store their settings on it!?
[Droid Incredible General] Greenteam!:
I read the tread about dual rom app. I also read a tread about super rom switcher. Is there a way to make the dual rom app a 1 step process? Also, what is the difference between the two?

Hey everyone. this is my first post here.(hope I'm not in the wrong section)

I have a samsung galaxy 3(or i5800). I bought it just a couple of days ago.

Everything works fine. Just one problem, it has android 2.1 inside. It's a lil bit slow for my preferences.

I really want to update it to 2.2 but I am facing a big wall ahead of me.

I read some threads here saying that I should use a software called Odin. I really dont know how to do that. Its not that i am a noob but it just doesnt recognize my phone and some errors in chinese appear

Can someone help me please?!?!?!?!?!?!
[Galaxy 3 General] Dharam_Maniar:
First you need to install kies...so that you have the drivers for ur phone installed in the PC...

Second you need to check this out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=873645

You could also update the normal way using Samsung kies. It's the official program to update your phone.
[Galaxy 3 General] dragonilly:
Nah I couldn't do it with Kies. It would say I had the latest firmware. Anyways I managed to upgrade it with odin, so thankssssssss
[General Questions and Answers] sunny143:
I have been part of a fund raiser for a few years now. One common problem that I often faced is people would like to donate but might not carry enough cash and I didn’t have a way to charge their credit card. PayAnywhere came as an ideal solution for that. It’s a free Android application, comes with a free credit card reader and is absolutely easy to use. The interface is amazingly simple yet intuitive making it easy even for a novice to use.

It is a product from North American Bancard, one of the leading credit card processors today, which takes care of the security issues. Besides the customer service is also extremely efficient. I had to call them just once to set up my account – the process was hassle-free, I got my card reader in time and its been a smooth ride since then.

Any of you also using the app ? what has been your experience?
[General Questions and Answers] Joltrast:
I've never heard of "Pay Anywhere" but I use Square which is essentially the same thing.

Because it's the stock AOSP gallery app
[HTC Inspire 4G] dmeans2:
Which looks amazing... love it in CM7
[HTC Inspire 4G] diablo009:
I think its the app that comes by default in android. Found the same in all ROMs when on Captivate. Even on Attrix.
[HTC Inspire 4G] P00t:
do i just flash it using CWM??

im using coredroid v6.6(inspire 4g) will it work on it? i mean i guess it should cause its on the inspire thread.
[HTC Inspire 4G] TMan11:
No, only do that for .zip files. For this, it is a .apk file which is a "Application" just put it on your sd card(Preferably the root of the sd card,It is easier to find) and then disconnect your device from your pc and then using "Easy Installer" click on it and install. If you use "Easy Installer". If you want to install it using "ASTRO File Manager" just click on the file and hit "Open App Manager" and then the "Install" button in the upper-left part of the screen. :)

Let me know if you need anymore help.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmineus:
Hello everyone! I have stupid question: Is there any way to update via android market applications that are not installed from the market? I am sure many of you out there have outdated apks that needs to be updated. So you install an apk and if it is outdated, market app should find it and update with the latest version existing in the market

Like i said maybe a stupid question
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
If an app is on the market then it will update .If its not from the market then it will not update unless updating is built into the app .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sargorn:
You may need to go into Settings -> Applications and find the Market and do a "force close" and then a "clear data".

The next time you open up the market it should rebuild the list of 'installed apps'.

[HD Mini General] Daphoz:
Hi guys,

I have a problem with my HD Mini. I searched for it, but I didn´t find help. If the same problem is solved in another thread, please post the link.

When my device is in slepp mode (screen black) and I want to wake up (press on/off button) nothing happens. The only way to use the device is to remove the battery and turn it on again.

Sometimes I can wake up the device normaly (press on/off button -> slide bar down -> everything is normal), but only in 2 of 10 cases.

The device is running in sleepmode normaly, I can recieve messages, it vibrates and the green light flashs.

I tryed to fix it by an hard reset, but that didnt help.

I hope anyone knows how to fix it.
[HD Mini General] bruce2728:
hi

try searching for 'sleep of death' or SOD there is a thread on it somewhere

the problem is winmo related i think and not just our mini's are affected

hope this helps
[HD Mini General] disciplinedhtc:
Same here, a hard reset didn't help, I mean problem comes out also with a clean installation. You can only remove battery or wait for someone to call/sms you..
[HD Mini General] Daphoz:
Thanks... I have searched it, but it seems like there is no real solution to this problem.

but i´ve read somewhere, that if you put yout device to sleep when its in shortcut-homescreen (9 shortcuts), there is no SOD. It seems to work.

if anyone got an better solution...
