[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powerlifter450:
I've got an atrix, it uses 3g/4g so a data plan should work unlike the iphone. The Inspire is another phone where data plans are not available for pre paid. Salesmen love to threaten,intimidate and mislead.If you only want wifi you can turn off data in the data manager under settings.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czwxyz:
So, they may only scan my IMEI and add data plan to it without my permission, and I can always make voice calls?

Since I am in "$2 Unlimited Daily Talk and Text" prepaid plan which is not qualified for any data plan, how can they add date plan to it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code-vii:
[Q] Is the rumor that the AT&T "Unlimited" plans are not as unlimited as advertised?

:o Please forgive me for asking the following as Ii am sure there are threads upon threads talking about this but it is very late, I am very tired and I would just like an answer from some of the MASTERS I know are on this site!!! I did search but nothing in the first 10 or so were what I needed :o

I have the Cappy w/ the "Unlimited" data plan but I've heard that once you start racking up the gigs that ATT will either begin to charge you after going over some arbitrary limit or they begin to throttle your phones data reception capability.

My brother says that T-Mo does this and has found an app to switch off his "data governor" or whatever you want to call it...

Does AT&T do this and if so, is there anyway of stopping it? I listen to online radio all day at work, haven't checked my data usage lately but I'm up in the 7+ gig range and I do seem to notice a definite decline in my already spotty 3g reception.

(I'd use WiFi but my Nazi IT guy at work has any site that streams anything he deems possible of being "recreational" data blocked(at least all the ones he has found) but yes, my Sirius and Tune-In radio app are blocked thru company WiFi)

~once again, please forgive my lazy-ass, which currently, is totally whooped from the day I've had~
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyukki:
The simplest "solution" would be to just stop listening to the radio as much. I don't know what you do for work but the IT guy doesn't block off those sites just to make your working conditions miserable. He is instructed to block off "recreational" sites from his superiors. In that case, you shouldn't be listening to the radio during your work hours anyways.

I don't think they would throttle your speed or charge you right off the bat. If anything, you should get a letter in the mail saying that you're using insane amounts of data. Bad 3G reception is probably placebo.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superalpaca:
They don't do that. ATT is a lot of things, but they're not outright swindlers. If you're reaching or have breached some kind of arbitrary "cap" that you're unaware of for whatever reason, they send you a text message and probably an email as well to let you know.

And for the record, an application that "Freezes" whatever it is that tells ATT you've used up your given data is most definitely illegal. I'm talking fraud-illegality, not some silly, false open-source thing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reamer09:
AT&T's plans are at a max of 2GB data limit. Unless you have been a member for years and was "grandfathered" into the "unlimited" plan that actually has a cap of 5GB. If you have used 7GB im sure they'll let you know before taking drastic actions. I just wished I would have stayed with them because I had the larger limit but briefly switched to Verizon and when I came back to AT&T I could only get the 2GB plan. I have WiFi pretty much everywhere I go though so its not so bad.

I hope they bring back unlimited :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
The reason AT$T now caps data on their network is the same reason your employer also limits what data-hungry access you have to their network. Such over-use slows down the network for everyone. While you may think you should be able to use the networks as you please, work or cellular, there has to be some kind of balance so that there are many happy users instead of just a few among lots of unhappy ones. If you must have music at work, buy a radio or an iPod.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boborone:
There is no throttling down of data (I made a thread on this) and there is no way for it to block app's wifi packet data.

So I love the way that the status bar icons look on Myn's Warm Two Point Two, but I also love CM7's latest and greatest nightlies. Does anyone know of a theme for use with the CM7 theme chooser that will give me a Myn-like effect? If not I'll have to get into editing the framework-res myself, I'd just rather not.

[Thunderbolt General] gemitero:
Is there anyway to play media on the TV? HDMI,DLNA,or any other way?
[Thunderbolt General] playbeasy:
You can use Twonky from the market.
[Thunderbolt General] NickWarner:
If you have a DLNA-capable TV or other renderer, the Connected Media app that comes with the phone is a DLNA server.

Other than that, I'd say any of the other DLNA/UPnP servers from the Market, but that also requires a DLNA-capable renderer.

If you don't have any of the above, I don't believe there's an HDMI cable available for the Thunderbolt yet.

Edit: Had to check my facts, turns out I was right.
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
Will any of the DNLA or UPnP servers do a full mirror? Or is it just strictly for media stored locally on the device like with the HTC dnla hdmi server?

Or at minimum allow me to stream straight from slacker, youtube, vulkano, or the web.
[Thunderbolt General] NickWarner:
Far as I know, there aren't any apps that will mirror the display. The DLNA server(s) will only allow you to render content from your device onto a renderer.

The built-in server (Connected Media) will even allow you to render content stored on another DLNA server through your device to a remote renderer. I'm not sure why they would do that, since you must already have a DLNA-compliant server and renderer... Why wouldn't you just render the content directly instead of through your device...?
[Thunderbolt General] 1454:
Cool, that's what I thought, but I thought I would ask and hope someone saw something I didn't.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Well, I unfortunately don't have any experience with the Auto Root method. Hopefully xHausx will chime in here. Out of curiosity, your replacement phone did indeed have 2.2 on it, right? Because if it was updated to the OTA 2.3.3 that root method won't work. What is your software and hboot version?

Perhaps try running the RUU again?

I believe there is a thread around by Calkulin which addresses the issue of the phone not reading the sd card and not charging. I will see if I can dig that up for you. Good luck.

EDIT: Here is that thread by calkulin. I'm not sure if this will be able to help you out or not, but you can go through it anyways. When you boot to your bootloader, does it show S on or S off? What is the version number?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Your phone had some bad blocks there, that's strange for a new one. I can help you try to fix it but tbh your best bet is to run the 3.70 ruu and take it back for another. Otherwise odds are it'll start doing this again somewhere down the line.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblueshock:
Thanks Haus. Yea very odd... It's a brand new sealed 0004 model. I hope it's just luck of the straw. I'm going to head back to sprint later and get it replaced again. I just hope not all the new 0004's are like this. They dont have any refurbs in stock so they had to send me a brand new one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
You should be good with another one, I've only had maybe 4 or 5 people have this happen before and up until now they were all refurbs. Just luck of the draw I guess.

edit: btw that speedtest result is sick, I would love to have a ping like that
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblueshock:
The phone had stock 3.70 2.2 froyo. Phone is s-on with 2.10 bootloader, never got that far to get it s off :(

And yeah, too bad i just graduated from school, no more 100mbit pipe for me, was nice while it lasted ;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stuke00:
2.10 bootloader should work, it is the 2.19 one i believe that is locked.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblueshock:
So sprint swapped out the phone at the store. I'm pretty excited, he gave me a brand new White evo =)

I got home and autoroot worked flawlessly! Thanks again Haus for all your support and easy rooting techniques.

I'm not sure if this is the possible reason for my old phone bricking like that, but I'd like to share some knowledge.

My original 0004 model that sprint sent me was brand new, as well as the white evo 0004 sprint gave me was also brand new. While attempting to root the first replacement, 'check.bat mtd' returned 'old'. The second replacement white evo returned as "new". Not that i think it matters, but they both came with 2.10 bootloader and 3.70 base.

I have a strange feeling the first replacement had new block size, but for some reason a bug marked it as having the old block size. I just dont see how a brand new just made 0004 evo would have the old block size.

Could this have been the culprit?

Hello Folks,

Right now I'm using wildfire, but I don't like it any more. I'm planning to switch to HTC HD2. how good is it ?

More over I'm no more impressed with Windows Operating system available in it (W 6.5). I have gone through some positive replies and videos on HD2 running Android 2.3 (Ginger Bread). So please help me out to find which ROM will be fast good enough with less issues to use on HD2.....

I'll be waiting for your valuable replies !

Thanks in advance

Android runs perfectly without any performance issues for a longer time now.

There are a lot of roms in the Hd2 Android-nand section which are running without any bugs.

Which fits to you you have decide yourself.

I would recommend you to have a look at typoon(look at my sig), hyperdroid and nexusHD2..think thats a good start to begin with.

Go for a native android device

Of course there are some nice Android builds for HD2. BUT, nothing is perfect. For example I have these two issues that are not solved in any build.

1. The speaker volume (ringtones, notifications, music) is very low on android compared to windows mobile.

2. Whenever you press the wake up button the screen comes up only after 1 or 2 seconds.

So there are some issues like these. So better go for a native Android device.
[HD2 General] lokalboy808:
I would have to second Pongsters Hyperdroid CM7 newest build. The only thing you need to do is replace the stock camera with another. Like the MIUI camera or the LG camera.
[HD2 General] Sichroteph:
Very good rom indeed. Very fast and smooth. This build took back my flash addiction hehe
[HD2 General] sframbo:
At the moment, i am very impressed by MccMBoxmaX GS V6.0 [Desire S] Gingerbread 2.3.3 [Sense 2.1+3.0]. The whole hardware of my HD2 seems to work as it has to do. Runs quick and smooth without lags from a class 6 SD-Card.
[HD2 General] deano309:
These issues are solved in some roms:

The sound is related to /system/lib/libaudio.so & /system/etc/firmware/default.acdb

I forget what the wake up lag is related to (Sensors lib i beleive) :(

I use a personally modded version of CyanogenMod-7 to run on my HD2 and don't suffer from your problems!

It does depend which rom you are using but you should be able to patch/replace those files!

Hope this helps :)

Hi....

In my opinion the graphic glitches are annoying in current gingerbread roms (as much as I experienced)... I use Desire DL roms from SD, but I'm looking for a relatively bug-free rom with htc-sense to flash instead of WM 6.5 and run android directly.... I'll be honored if someone could recommend me a rom, running as fast as possibe with least bugs, and specially without delay after installing applications or waking up on calls....

Thanks in advance... :)
[HD2 General] kolyan:
Use official Miui from Miui-devs.com. Rom updated every week, if bugs are found, they usually get fixed with-in few days or in next weekly built.

so far i have no bugs. other that common signal bar issue that most in not all users have. Sense 2.1 ROM was also bug free for me.
[HD2 General] backlashsid:
is it true that running android via NAND has less battery consumption than via SD ?

cos I run via SD and the battery drops like a %every 2 minute...if I am on wifi...
[HD2 General] deano309:
Yes, it's true.

I use about 1% per hour on standby :)

Hi,

Three pages in,and still no definitive answer,eh... :rolleyes:

Please check my sig...guide number 1.

:)
[HD2 General] fred_up:
Of course there is no definitive answer. The chefs build ROMs to suit their tastes and we select the one that we like most and tweak it to suit ourselves.

Of all the Android SD versions I've tried, the only problem I have encountered is not being able to connect to the Market (easily solved) and the very, very rare Forced Close (the app restarted without a problem).
[HD2 General] deano309:
No, check my sig!!!! lmao :)
[HD2 General] backlashsid:
I know that...but how bout when you are connected to the wifi..or playing some graphic intense game ??? how frequently is the battery then changing ?
[HD2 General] deano309:
Well when i'm using Wifi, playing games, screen on full brightness I can pretty much destroy the battery in about 6-8 hours.

With my normal usage - 3G on, about 45mins of calls, always using sms (send-receive about 50 per day), check emails 5-10 times a day and the 2 or 3 bouts of 10 mins of Angry Birds (I know, but I love it!) I can get over a day out of my phone! (Roughly translates to an average of about 3-4% per hour)

BTW: Gameloft games DO mince my battery and normally I play those when the charger is plugged in!

Hope this helps :)
[HD2 General] kolyan:
my wifi is always on without even power savings mode (turn off with screen) and i just dont see the significant effect on battery at all. also using WIFI during long browsing sessions is actually better on battery then 3G
[HD2 General] deano309:
True, 3G drains battery quicker than WiFi.

For anyone interested in what may be draining power, installing CurrentWidet would give you a better idea!

Hope this helps :)

I recently found the phone numbers in contacts being displayed like 123-456-789. Previously it was being displayed without "-". I tried to change the locale & regional settings but it didn't work ! Why is it so ? Now After I factory resetted the phone & selected locale & English (US), though this problem got sorted out. I am facing two new problems. My Android market does not update itself !!!!!!!!! & the progress of the ongoing downloads does not show/appears blank.
