[Galaxy S II General] netcitizen:

[Galaxy S II General] SAlmighty:
nope

expired
[Galaxy S II General] coolbuddyin:
any one on vodafone prepaid on this offers know when the monthly limit starts on 1st of every month or on activation date?
[Galaxy S II General] atulsaluja:
It starts on activaion day. Just send SMS USE to 144. You will receive every information like data used, validity etc.

I am a delhi vodafone prepaid subscriber. So if you are from other circle then I am not sure whether USE code will work or not.
[Galaxy S II General] coolbuddyin:
Mine actviated on Aug 30

but today on 2 oct it shows 1103mb used

counter should reset on activation date, is nt it?
[Galaxy S II General] netcitizen:
it carries over from month to month.

can anyone confirm if this offer works.. (the offer states SGS2 bought before Aug 31.)

has anyone tried?
[Galaxy S II General] coolbuddyin:
whether counter sets from month to month

it should start from zero,why its showing 1103mb
[Galaxy S II General] netcitizen:
Does anyone know how to add 3g/2g pack once the free 3g pack for the month is over?
[Galaxy S II General] coolbuddyin:
Recharge with 333 or 222 for full talktime to core balance

Then send sms ACT MI102 or ACT MI375 to 144

Very few circles has direct recharge for 102 and 375 , One is mumbai
[Galaxy S II General] lordsom:
Its awesome!

Runs like a charm in Mumbai :D

D/L speeds of upto 7.1 mbps....

3G watchdog is a must!

It's damn good in Kolkata too......the best part being there is that it is identical to EDGE/gprs on roaming....i.e. no extra charges :cool:
[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
It carries over unused MB to next month's quota. I do not know if MI102/375 work the same way or not. The promo offer does carry forward.

Vodafone 6 Months 3G offer for Samsung GS2

Anyone of you availing the 6 Months free 3G scheme of Vodafone for SGS 2 in Mumbai?

To my dismay, I got a message from Vodafone yesterday saying this scheme has expired and that I should recharge with Rs. 99 card. What the hell is this? How can they stop the offer just after 3 months when they have committed to give this offer for 6 months! Anyone else faced this problem?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c_86:
Hi there

long time reader first time poster here...

searched and found nothing...

running the latest gingerbread AT&T official on a AT&T atrix (currently unlocked and running on the Rogers network in canada)

i seem to be having an issue with my Atrix lately(or at least been noticing).... normally when i am connected to the data networks fine, my signal meter and H+ are is blue...

what has been happening is if i leave the phone alone for some time (usually 20+), it just disconnects from the data services... all my signal meter and H+ meter turns grey... when i "wake" the device it takes a couple seconds to kick back to blue... when this is going on i go into my gtalk and i see it had signed me out and that its trying to sign me back in.... same thing with alot of other apps, like my issimo app, its been sign out, or hasnt received any new updates since it turned "grey".

how do i stop this? is this a bug? something wrong with the OS? will i have to reflash?

any thoughts on this would be appreciated!

thanks!

UPDATE:

had battery save mode on nighttime, so i thought that was the issue... so i changed it to performance and doing that had no effect at all... still losing data after a while of it being locked...

any ideas? could this maybe be some residual affects from a battery saver app i add?

i really would not like to reload the OS...

anyone got any ideas?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vegitamaster66:
i'm finding any solution for the same problem, some atrix lose data signal, motorola says that is a software problem but i dont find a fix for that yet, any idea?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LightSwitchTTM:
It's a software issue on Motorola's end. I'm having the same problem. I haven't flashed a custom ROM yet, but my friend had the same problem and he said when he flashed Gingerblur it was fixed.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c_86:
when i seemed to notice it was when i had upgraded to gingerbread... so what i simply did was deleted my APN, rebooted and entered in the APN again, and that seemed to have solved it
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
@OP I don't use GTalk so I can't comment on that, but the signal than that you described is EXACTLY what my SGS does running on stock Froyo rooted.

I don't know if its more battery saving or what, but I tend to miss more calls in weaker signal areas when my phone has been on idle for a while.

I too am looking for a fix because of that. Also my Atrix sometimes acts the same way on Froyo, but I haven't used my Atrix in a while...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c_86:
kinda still having the issues but i have been dealing with it and trying out different ROMs to see if those are any help at all... so far its intermittent
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YBrazeau:
Same kinda style here ..

When i am on my mobile data it's fine , but as soon as i connect to a wi-fi it become grey and no more data (mobile/wireless) is working ...

Tried many ROMS , Radios , all the same...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ltdanno360:
That new leaked radio they got doesn't work here in Bakersfield the 1.77.36p

Shoot I was lucky to get 00.04 mbps download and 00.01 upload

When I reflashed the previous radio I got 05.00down 2 up mbps much better one

1.7730p but It may make the phone run warmer
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phalanx7621:
Yes I found this to be true as well. The new radio (1.77.36) dropped signal for me often and the speeds were lower than with 1.77.30
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c_86:
why not upgrade your radios to the latest AT&T has to offer? 1.97.00 see if that helps?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofteno:
im having the same issue

anyone knows why this is happening? i have cyanogemod 7, i reflashed the phone, and when it started i restored but the problem just keep going
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sethdick50:
I have a very similar problem. When the H+ is lit up blue I have a network connection. But it will switch to grey then internet ect stops working ..still have signal (4 bars) any ideas why it keeps switching?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CREAPFACE:
I've had the same issue ever since I first got my atrix. I've tried many different roms and it does it with every one. Ill have great signal n my browser will direct my to a no data connection page. I have to reboot or turn airplane mode off n on to get it going again. I have like a month left on my warranty gonna try n swap it out n see if a different one will fix the problem
[General Questions and Answers] idefiler6:
Wondering if I part with 10 euros, will it get rid of some these (new?) ads when I surf here? Just curious. If so, for how long? I have zero problem giving back in this manner, because I've gotten tons of great ideas as a member, I am simply curious to see if directly giving money gets one anything more than a user who doesn't cough up receives.
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
No. Add block extensions in your browser will though. As will any number of dedicated shareware ad-block programs available online, i.e Ad Muncher.

Donating to XDA would be nice if you do this though as it's the ads that help finance the upkeep of the site. I feel if you block the ads you should at least donate.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] temp91:
Hi everyone

While using the Facebook app , when i post anything ..underneath my update its like " sent from android" or "sent from Facebook mobile"...

Is there a possibility to get something like "sent from Nexus S " or so?? like SE xperia users get this...

Thanks in advance...

Sorry if its a Stupid ques..:P
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
No. that is a custom app.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] temp91:
any such customized app for nexus s??
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
No. There is no such bloatware for the Nexus.

EDIT: Sony built their own Facebook app and it ships on the phone. So if you get that phone you can use that Facebook app or the regular Facebook for Android app. Same with HTC, HTC Sense comes with HTC's own app for Facebook. These apps are a part of manufacturer customizations.

The Nexus S is free from such things. It ships with only pure Android plus Google apps.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
You can try posting from your Nexus S browser via http://funnyfacebook.org :rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkrawiec:
Since the nexus s is googles flagship/developer product, shouldnt it have "everything"? that way programmers could test everything with it.

I wouldnt mind if the phone would be a bit fatter, if they added more cool

features.

Something that comes to mind immediately is Infrared to make it a universal

remote controller (and compete with the logitech harmony for example).

Also sensors, couldnt it also have a pressure sensor (crowdsource weather?)

etc etc...

So my question is, what additional sensors/hardware features could possibly

be added to make it the most complete super phoone? (not taking into

account size or battery).

Just curious.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
I went to a T-Mobile store earlier today, and ended up talking to them about the official OTA update for G2x. Turns out they pulled it because of "Issues it had". My LG update tool messed up my two phones, so I'm no longer trying that. My only chance for an official GB is the OTA, so I was forced to ask a lot of questions when they broke the news. They said they have no idea when the update will go live again, but it will work again once the issue is fixed. I'm not going to go through the whole "soon" phase again. Hopefully this is fixed fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Thanks for posting this. I've decided to wait, but have been curious why I had not seen it on my G2X. My daughters update via OTA came the day after it came out. I assumed I hadn't seen it 'cause I'm rooted.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
No Problem... They most likely stopped the update today since I talked to Customer Service yesterday, and they said "Wait for the OTA once your replacement arrives".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 2371530:
Wow so no ota update anymore? Btw what kinda of os were u using to update to 2.3?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
Not for now. I was using Windows XP comp/ Windows 7 Laptop
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pecata:
Hmmm, that is strange...I wonder what kind of issues they are talking about?

I've updated mine trought the LG Update tool(have the LGP999DWP), worked just fine, so far not having any issues.

I hope once they fixed whatever they are doing to be able to install that update as well.

I am not rooted-running all stock software.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
If you were asking about the PC used with the lg update, I used a Win 7 pro 32x. Worked great. No issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 2371530:
I went back to stock rom and rwcovery im still rooted thou (heard root doesnt matter) and i have a win 7 64 bit im scared to try to do it thru the update tool
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cenwesi:
Lol, guys if you can exchange this phone for the sensation i will suggest you do it ASAP!. LG has pretty much washed their hands off this phone. It kinda reminds me of what Nokia did with the N900. Anyway i had an opportunity to exchange mine with NO cost and ended up getting $3 back this Monday. This phone is nothing but trouble. BT don't even work properly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pecata:
How did you exchange for the Sensation? T-Mobile said that they can give me G2 but not the Sensation. How did you do it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] enoch861:
I did it just fine with Windows 7 x64.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
Nah, the sensation has a lot of issues aswell. I rarely have any problems with my G2x, Sensation is a downgrade IMO.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
If you're willing to downgrade. Just hassle them until they offer the sensation. Rant about the Specs and what you paid. Worked for my bro.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pecata:
No, i was just curoius I guess. I don't like the HTC Sense UI, it is way too much for me. It slows down the phone way too much too.

The gingerbread update we got from LG is half way done if you ask me. T-Mobile should make them finish it and then push it as OTA to all of us...just a thought
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
IF this is true (and haven't there been lots of threads over the last couple of months where sales/support/service representatives confidently asserted "facts" that proved to be false or were even obviously wrong at the time?), I'm hoping it might be to rectify the one point about the upgrade that has been universally panned: the loss of the LG Froyo camera application. It would be nice to get some independent confirmation, but given both LG's and T-Mobile's demonstrated unwillingness to say anything definitive about anything, that seems unlikely...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] richteralan:
Dono't get your hope up. IF what OP said is true, I would only expect a new update without the glitch. Nothing more , nothing less.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
Most likely. I called them again, and this time they said it was a problem installing. Others installed perfectly using the OTA. So i'm thinking they're covering up something.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Final View:
They just sent me the Software update after I called them. Quick Fix or clueless employees?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cenwesi:
Well you see, i explained to them that i bought a G2x (dual core,blah blah....), if i wanted a G2 i would have bought it. After all it is a 2yr or so old phone. Went on about how the BT on the phone does not work with an expensive BT. How it freezes....basically every other problem people where having i let them know. But she wasn't budging and i gave the phone back to the tmobile manager. Anyway to make a long story short i was nice to the manager and explained it all to him and even took it one step further. Right before i got to his store on monday, the BT locked up just like i suspected it would and i showed it to him :) and from then on he did is magic :)

Just like i ask the tmobile rep on the phone: if she had a lexus (LS 430) and she paid FULL price for it and it turns out to be a lemon. If lexus refuses to fix the problem or give her her money back but instead wanted to give her a honda from 2yrs would she take it? she was basically silent....that is when i handed the phone over to the manager. Anyway keep *****ing and they will definitely switch you over.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cenwesi:
Yes ALL phones have their issues but i can assure you the sensation problem is way less than the G2x.

Don't kid your self about sensation being a downgrade because it is really not. How is it really a down grade...is it because of sense? have you really played with it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dylanear:
I wonder if it's related to the baseband. I got the OTA the other day and then was having a long (30ish minutes) conversation while driving 40 miles across the SF bay area. Dropped the call like 6 times! Signal seemed fine, it was probably related to not passing between towers correctly. I'm used to it dropping once or twice in that kind of call/drive, but not every 3 to 5 minutes.

Come on LG/TMo, this is just getting sad. And I want the old camera back!!!!!

That said, the update seems to work well on everything else besides the camera and mobile connectivity. GPS locked basically instantly, phone feels slick and fast!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonathan3579:
I officially gave up on the phone today. I wanted to love it but lg will never come close to htc or samsung.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AdamHart612:
People's perception of time on this site is consistently wack lol. The G2 was released early October 2010, making it 9-10 months old. Almost half way to 2 years tho :) The original Droid hasn't even been out for 2 years, and the G1 isn't even 3 years old yet.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.frankm:
Lol. Thank you. That was irking me. Its pissing me off that they're discontinuing the g2. It's definitely one of, if not the sexiest phone out there, AWESOME REAL WORLD FUNCTIONALITY, and only 9 months old.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmandros:
I wouldn't say too much good about Samsung from my experience. I suffered with the Behold 2, there was no support from either Samsux or T-mo on that POS.

My experience, they all have issues, all of them. What are you willing to live with or work around. That is the question.

The G2X has lots of devs working on it, this is encouraging.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
The G2 is a very gorgeous and dev crazy phone (I used to own one) no arguing about that, but you've got to remember that companies

are about profit. If sales don't continue to rise then they will cut product and move onto to the new.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonathan3579:
Well I believe Samsung is cleaning up their track record which technically means that LG has the same potential. I'm steadily keeping an eye on current progress and will come to a final conclusion as to what I will keep of the three phones I hold. Now in regard to my current feelings for the G2x, I can only speak from my own experience but the "gingerbread" update slowed my reboots and cooled the phone down. However, I now lose signal constantly. GPS worked for a whole 3-5 days before ceasing to work again. And the browser has become absolutely unstable for me. On my current Sensation, all the previous issues I had do not exist on this handset. As for the myTouch 4G Slide, eh, this is my first day with it so I'm still reserved. One thing to note: when you compare similar pictures taken by all three, the G2x now has less than sub par quality.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nextgin:
Since I updated to GB, my phone has down a random reboot once.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
So I've had it for a week

Now the day I bought it, the phone rebooted. a Day later, I got the OTA upgrade. I noticed a couple of things:

coming form the HD2, the grey, only means it cannot connect to google. when I upgraded, I mistakenly wiped the phone (held the down button and power). After that fiasco was done, it SHOULD have connected to google to restore my applications. It didn't...

Reading through the XDA threads, some of the solutions are simple. LG, I read your init.rc scripts. That is a some 'not good code', y'all remind me of IBM and AIX's release of code....

the build.prop is missing some entries, reflecting google. I managed to get cwm working with a build.prop that has the dns settings connects me to google and I'm able to restore apps automatically.

LG it's a great phone. VERY nice. I think better than the sensation. I don't wanna trade my phone because this phone is much more likeable by me....let me run your Q and A department and I can fix ALL of the problems....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smurphjw:
I got the ota yesterday 7-30
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pdxmatts:
I got my G2X 2 weeks ago. It was dated 5/14/11 on the box. So far I haven't had any issues with it, not one reboot. But after reading XDA threads about all the issues with LG and updates and software problems, I am starting to second guess my decision on buying it.

I am on an Even more plus plan (no contract) so I had to pay retail ($499) but is split up into 24 monthly payments. That is a lot of money to spend on a phone that has such unhappy customers. I'm torn, I have 30 days to return, so about 2 weeks left. Did I make a mistake choosing the G2X? It certainly does not have good resale value. Should I even stay with TMO? :confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
you should return and move to sensation :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pdxmatts:
Haha! You would say that ;) When you get yours up and running, I'll pester you for details on how you like it. :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
haha ok :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Tattooed5150:
I would have to agree with Pecata. The HTC Sense slows the phone down way too much. I did my upgrade on my G2X through LG updater and works perfect. No problems and longer battery life as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Memnoch30:
You went with a Sensation? I'm actually thinking about it. This stock camera is killing me and I'm now getting SODs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cenwesi:
If i were you i will return the G2x will you are still withing the return policy. Just like the Nokia N900 and Sony Xperia X1. The G2x might only get one update from LG and i will NOT consider this quick patch job they did an update. If and when the REAL update comes, you can bet your pocket, it will most likely be the last update. To make a long story short, get the Sensation. We really need to teach these company a lesson. Even tmobile is trying their best to wash their hand off the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
if your having no problems with the phone then whats your deal? feel lucky, my phone runs great but because people had problems and the software update from lg blows and some bad reviews, im not returning my phone or jumping ship, i mean yea i feel for those people and it sucks but im keeping my g2x! and the sensation blows even when they do get sense off of it , it still wont be as quick as the g2x, i had one only thing nicer is the camera, how quick it snaps
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
thats how all phones are man the only phones that will see more then one update in its lifetime are the pure google phones like nexus
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cenwesi:
I agree and that is why my next phone will be a nexus. The only reason i did not buy the nexus was the fact it didn't have a SD card.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] darkgandhi05:
LG Tool Instructions

My OTA failed to proceed (did not brick) because I had ClockworkMod Recovery instead of Stock Recovery. Didn't know that was required. I called T-Mobile and they said there's no estimate on when they can put in requests for OTA's but requests are only possible after the entire rollout completes.

So the agent recommended I "sideload" using LG Update. If anyone's interested, these are the instructions he e-mailed me: //wwstg.lg.com/ us/ mobile-phones/ G2X-Driver/ index.jsp

I can't post links so just remove the spaces above if you want the link.

Didn't want to use the LG tool but here goes nothin.. :-?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Memnoch30:
I would put back the stock recovery to ensure everything goes smoothly. You can put CWM again afterwards.
