Is it roaming or native?

T-Mobile has WiFi calling to give you network coverage over WiFi when you are in range of it.

With the acquisition you can lock in a cheaper rate plan now, and keep it for the duration of the contract..
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
The phone is rather useless if you can't get reception. Maybe get a cheap tmobile prepaid sim card (find a used one, maybe from ebay or friends), and go to area that you usually go to check the reception?

For what's it's worth, most people report that tmobile 4G is indeed faster than AT&T 4G when they both have equally well reception. But as you said, AT&T's coverage is better, at least with EDGE.
[HTC Sensation] hearthewind:
I have a Sensation and my roommate has got a Atrix 4G.

I hate the lousy TFT screen which seems terribly white of A4G

And I think the difference of 256MB memory is certainly nothing

Sensation is great.Better than i9100 in my opinion.

And I'll enjoy the happy time with the s-off's coming
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdontforget:
All HTC roms ive been on suck with wifi, wifi calling in specifics. HTC roms i can go about 10 feet before it starts getting distorted, when i had CM7 i was able to walk across the street and hold a convo, ive tried the Best wifi performance switch (which i think does nothing at all) and its the same issue.

Is it possible to use the CM7 wifi driver in the HTC rom?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfcalf:
Im not sure what Rom you are using but the problem is most likely with your kernel. Have you tried flashing a different Kernel?

This one might work for you

Fauxs GB sense kernel

If this kernel is not made for the ROM you are using dont flash it. find the correct one for your rom
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GazaIan:
CM7's WiFi drivers are ported to CM7 using HTC's sources... Change your kernel.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdontforget:
Im currently using the newest kernel from faux and i have used his kernels in CM7, and did not have the problem, only with HTC roms
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ionic7:
Same wifi driver...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdontforget:
Hmm, What else could it possibly be?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danyune:
I have this problem too and it is really frustrating

I have to literally put a wireless router on my desk I work on just to make it like a regular call
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfcalf:
Im talking on my phone via wifi calling with royal sense Tmobile Mytouch 2.3.4 based rom right about 30ft away from the router and through two wall without any problems

Edit: However this sense rom is using GingerSensei 1.0, ckisgen custom kernel not faux
[Acer Iconia A500] rkmFL:
The Virtuous ROM's / Unity Kernels do not appear to include CIFS.

Is there an alternative ROM that plays nice with Virtuous, which supports CIFS, or some other method of enabling CIFS under Virtuous?

I did search but have found no results, other than to read that it appears CIFS was not included in Virtuous.

Thank you in advance,

RKM
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
What are the benefits of this? There aren't any roms out yet right (for the t-mobile sensation)?
[HTC Sensation] stonew5082:
yeah, there is roms out for it what are you talking about? I'm flashing one right now, android revolution with the no-sense script. Still has the cool lockscreen, but no bloated sense.
[HTC Sensation] Sergio76:
Lol this thread should be closed.

Any rom works on any branded device once device is S-OFF thats why you S-OFF too flash what ever you like.
[HTC Sensation] brian85:
Well in that case, looks like I will do this. :)
[HTC Sensation] cenwesi:
Yep, it should be closed and DELETED asap. The whole point of S-off was to be able to install custom roms.
[HTC Sensation] tmosda:
the fact that he's even asking this question means he should NOT s-off.
[HTC Sensation] nickL0V3:
to be fair, S-OFF doesnt mean you HAVE to flash a new ROM.

I just got S-Off, and Im sticking with the stock ROM. but its nice being able to use Ad-Free, Titanium Back-up, Drocap, and other root apps.
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
*Note: taken from related XDA sections.

These forums are about to explode with development now that we have S-Off/Root, so I figured we now need one of these. So from this day forward,

ALL

releases, whether they are mods, ROMs, Apps, WIPs, etc. MUST have their thread titles named as such:

IF YOU ARE RELEASING A ROM YOUR THREAD TITLE SHOULD BE AS FOLLOWS:

[ROM][DATE] <NAME OF ROM> [Version][KERNEL]

•[ROM] of course meaning that your release is a ROM

• The [DATE] must be in the [Month.Day.Year] form. Example: [FEB.5.11]

• The <NAME OF ROM> is of course whatever your ROM is called. BE SPECIFIC.

• [Version] OF ANDROID.

•The [KERNEL] tag is of course what Kernel your ROM uses. BE SPECIFIC.

An example title is as follows:

[ROM][07.29.2011]BertStare v2.2 *Sense 3.0* | Working Camera! [2.3.3] [Kernel 2.6.35.10]
[HTC EVO 3D] karate134:
Good idea, but are you a mod to make this a rule?
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
It's not in your place to make this sort of rule. A mod needs to post this and stick it himself.
[HTC EVO 3D] BDawgTrap:
I agree! It's so hard to go through the development section as it is even now and tons haven't really started yet. This should be a rule for everything (obviously modified titles depending on the project) but there are a lot of forums without a lot of information in the title
[HTC EVO 3D] mptherealmp:

[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
This is funny. Welcome to Russia where rom makes you. LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
Just trying to help my friends.

Read my other thread as well:

[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
That thread is quite useful for the quick scan through that I did. I think the only problem with this thread is the "MANDATORY GUIDE" part. If it was a suggestion there would not be any problem with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] arozer:
Well every section has one, and it's titled: [MANDATORY].

I know I don't have any actual "authority" here but hey.. if I"m able to help, I don't see a reason for Mods to have any problem with it.

In fact, they might sticky it when they see it. We'll just let them decide, to do as they wish. No worries.
[HTC EVO 3D] animal7296:
No worries here. I dont cook roms anyway so it dont pertain to me. Just giving my opinion.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
No, it's a problem when you tag it Mandatory when it's not. Stop playing a mod, let them do it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Avalaunchmods:
My suggestion is as follows

[Rom,WIP,TUT,etc]/[State of the rom i.e. Daily, Beta, Alpha]/[Type of rom i.e. AOSP, Hybrid(sense+aosp), Sense, etc]/[Date] [Name] [Silly comment]

Example-

[ROM/Daily/Sense/7-30-11] Ava-FroyoV5 We use froyo still. yes.

Thats how i personally do it and i think it helps as many people new to roms look for those 3 things in particular.

plus i think it looks neater, and if every thread followed this outline in development, it would be a great place to be :D
[HTC EVO 3D] the_scotsman:
Thanks for your suggestion. The mods will provide a naming convention in their own time, if they feel one is needed :)
[HTC Sensation] splayer7:
So I am as excited as everyone else about s-off. Been waiting for awhile, but in the haste of everyone rooting their phone, I haven't been able to find a thread about restoring s-on in case of warranty work. Have I over looked something?
[HTC Sensation] splayer7:
lots of views but no comments. This is from the IRC if interested

<splayer7> sorry if this has been asked, but what about resuming s-on for warranty work?

<hyuh> splayer7: no, not available
[HTC Sensation] spazoid:
Exactly what has been said. There is no unrooting or S-On restoring at this time. I would just wait if you haven't already. HTC Released their source codes today. Its only a matter of time before an easier root is available with unroot, and S-on.
[HTC Sensation] kevinliu2336:
Was told that we could s-on by running the RUU. Here's a link to some I've found but haven't tested any of this. http://droidangel.blogspot.com/2011/06/htc-sensation-ruushipped-roms-packaged.html
[HTC Sensation] richardmkovach:
do we have any confirmation on this working correctly
[HTC Sensation] kevinliu2336:
Tried it, resets your ROM but doesn't reset s-off
[HTC Sensation] smacman:
Guys.. There is about a 25% chance at best that HTC will actually check the boot loader status before providing warranty service. Even if you are unlucky and they do, if you make enough noise they might make an exception and let you off the hook. I think that as long as the issue that you are trying to resolve isn't a direct result of s-off or root, it should be fine.
[HTC Sensation] lge73:
Flash an official RUU, and the device will be S-ON! TESTED!:p
[HTC Sensation] smacman:
Are you sure man? Somebody else above tested and found the opposite..
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
If the ruu is left untampered with, the boot image will be replaced with a stock one. Boot image is where your s-off lives. So in theory it should without a doubt work. You just have to make sure the boot image is in the ruu
[HTC Sensation] alexp999:
I used the rom.zip file included in an untouched RUU, and I checked it includes HBOOT, also saw version change when I went into HBOOT.

It does NOT reset S-OFF back to S-ON.

I dont know if when you flash it reads S-OFF so keeps it, for users who genuinely had S-OFF?
[HTC Sensation] richardmkovach:
I have personally tested this, and can confirm that using HTC's stock RUU does not return the phone to S-ON. However, it did remove the top area that says revolutionary, so now it appears as though I have a factory S-OFF device :)
[HTC Sensation] civicvx94:
bummer.. I really hope there is a way to reverse s-off, just in case. but then again, I do have insurance so I guess I could say it was 'stolen' if I really need to get it replaced :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] prank1:
Try flashing ENG HBOOT, then the RUU afterwards.

I am going to try to get my phone back to S-ON now, just to test everything

EDIT

Hmm, very odd indeed, after flashing the RUU I have 'stock' Radio S-OFF (no -Revolutionary-) , I tried fastboot oem write secuflag 1 and fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 but I am still Radio S-OFF.

Just so people know, flashing full RUUs, even HBOOTs do NOT get rid of Radio S-OFF. Thats why it is favored by people, it can only be turned S-ON specifically by tools which may be released for the Sensation in the near future. I thought these tools only sent the commands that I tried to change the Radio security status. It would appear not.

However

There is no need to worry, Radio S-OFF probably won't void your warranty (if you sent it to a HTC repair center), as long as you have the correct CID and ROM installed you should be fine.

If I remember correctly, with the past Android phones, some people randomly got S-OFF (like sensation users did) out of the box. The HTC repair center didn't care. They don't like custom ROMs, custom HBOOTs, rooted ROMs, etc
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Asadullah:
Dell Stage Launcher On Nook Color​

This is the dell stage launcher and it's widgets. It looks great on the nook so I figured I would share the link. I'm running stockish b&n 1.2.0 I've only applied the manual nooter to it. Everything including the widgets work with it. This was made for large screen devices so it fits perfectly.

NOTICE !​

It works great on my device but it may not with whatever rom your using so of course I must say that by downloading this you agree that anything that happens to your nook is your responsibility.

How to install

Download the zip and unzip it.

Place the apks on your sdcard or in /media (some where you'll find them.

Use es file explorer to install all the apks dell stage home first

Press home button and select dell stage.​

Download zip here

Everything works I tested myself before posting this on stock rom. Also I can't provide support for this since I didn't make it (get with dell or apk manager)

​
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] psychoace:
It's nice but it crashes a lot for me. Im on nightly 143 and when I flip through to landscape on the home screen it crashes, when I go into settings it crashes and the music widget doesn't work. So it needs some TLC before it can replace anything

It looks like you are using the bn 1.2 stock build which is froyo. Im seeing a few of these apks titled with froyo so I think it has some gingerbread problems
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] BugsBunny891:
it was posted a while ago but i think people werent using it because the widgets dont fit right
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Asadullah:
I'm running stock bn 2.2 with manual nooter only and it fits great on the screen. No force closes. If your having problems then it's probably the rom your using.
[Atrix 4G General] domin8:
just stumbled across this, we may have to watch our tethering habits fella's

http://thecasualgeek.tumblr.com/post/8241532886/at-t-to-begin-throttling-unlimited-data-users
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Sounds good to me, the top 5% heaviest users probably account for 30%-40% of data used across the entire mobile network in a month.
[Atrix 4G General] domin8:
Yeah, I can see it being an issue when people use a tethered phone as their primary internet service. I never go over the 2gb limit and I have unlimited.
[Atrix 4G General] Mossys:
Welcome to Canada...
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
I use 2gig on average and I can't say I tether. Always on the market, netflix, Pandora etc. I also use QIK with my wife and kids. Wish they could make a Facetime app so I can call their Iphones though. Tango is aweful lately but QIK is pretty good.
[Atrix 4G General] jimmerz0823:
Thats exactly wat tmobile does
[Atrix 4G General] Nickerz:
So basically the people who AT&T considers "abusing" their wireless network will be affected only. Not a big deal to me. Seems to me AT&T just needs to add more hotspots and problem solved.

"Typically what puts someone in the top 5 percent is streaming very large amounts of video and music daily over the wireless network, not Wi-Fi. "
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
Here's a better idea. Remove all the iPhone ****** users and problem solved.

IPhone users automatically equal tier plan death to carriers. It's truly game over whenever Sprint gets the iPhone... :(
[Atrix 4G General] Deggy:
I'd rather have throttled unlimited data vs a 2gb cap with possible overage charges.
[Atrix 4G General] halfevildruid:
I have yet to go over 2gig in a month anyway, I added tethering for my tablet which bumped it to 4gig at $45, still haven't went over 4. I don't mind paying even though I can tether free, since they are going to charge me $10 bucks for each gig over anyway. wish we would get 4G speeds where i live tho
[Atrix 4G General] ecapox:
The issue is how do they calculate the "heaviest users"?

Possibilities.

Assumption: throttling starts at 5gb

1. If i have unlimited plan and use about 6gb.

2. If i have a tethering plan and i use 6gb.

Scenario #1, i am ok with. 6gb using just a phone is a hell of a lot. i have hit 4gb once and that was when i left wifi off all month.

Scenario #2 would piss me off. Part of getting the tethering plan is because you will be using large amounts of data. In essence they are saying, we dont care. I bet ther only users that will be affected are the people who tether, and that is utte bull****.

Either way, we dont know when the throttling starts because AT&T doesnt release data usage stats. :mad:
[Atrix 4G General] Maroon Mushroom:
Well this sucks for me. I do 10+GB a month. My record was in the mid 40s. I do a lot of tethering. And a lot of P2P with that tethering.

:( well I'll just have to upgrade my home internet
[Atrix 4G General] Sinful Animosity:
that's what they are trying to stop -.-
[Atrix 4G General] Nophix:
I would like to know the logic to this. We have both and it's the Androids that seem to leach the most data. My wife was never over 200mb with her iPhone or Surround, but she's had 2 Inspires (warrantied once for this reason). They leached data straight out of the box. Her Inspire averages 900mb.

She is almost always home on wifi, and our house is an Edge-only area.

The iPhone doesn't do anything more to a network than the Androids. It only got the label of network killer because it was the first truly powerful smartphone they released. It was also so much of a hit, it pulled in dumb phone users who never thought of getting a smartphone.

The current line of Androids are just as fast, and faster, than the iPhone4. They stream HD video, and are uncorked from the box. I cant even download a podcast if it's over 20mb while on my i4.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
Both AT&T and Verizon have complained about network overload issues after taking on the iPhone. They like the money that the phone brings in, but then cry poor that their networks are suffering.

Verizon was doing just fine with their Android lineup.

They thought they could handle the iPhone and show up AT&T with their network. Now they are just known as victim #2.

Sprint is now the new favorite on different message boards. Guarantee if they take on the iPhone, it will be tiered data death for them too.

Just one of my MANY reasons why I hate Apple... :(
[Atrix 4G General] JohnnyDanger:
I don't like this at all. I tether on very rare occasions. But I have a 2 hour bus commute and half hour bike ride to and from work 5 days a week. During that time I am almost always streaming video or music, whether it be from hulu, Netflix, Pandora, Google Music etc...

My billing cycle ends on the 3rd. I just checked what my usage for July has been. In July I had a week off from work. Even with that week off and using wifi every minute I'm at home im still at 6.8gb. This worries me. I'm not abusing the data service, I'm just using it in my daily routine. I don't know if that amount of data could potentially throttle me but it would sure suck if I if it did.
[Atrix 4G General] Dystopiq:
I still have my Unltd Data from way back 09, so this sort of blows for me, but AT&T has a business to run, I guess.
[Atrix 4G General] projectdownset:
Nice corporate guru responses. The "top 5%" is gonna be anyone over 2gb, since that amount was put in place by the company as 95% of AT&T's customers using less than that. At least other carriers throttle to new unlimited plans, at&t doesn't even offer this anymore. All they are doing is rewarding dumb people who think a smartphone makes them smarter while curbing technological advances in streaming music and video.
[Atrix 4G General] velvetmxo:
I wonder if I'll be affected by this.. I don't tether at all and sometimes i hit 20gb. I'm on netflix often, play my pocket legends, vendetta online and download some movies/anime. I have unlimited data.
[Atrix 4G General] JaronBang:
Im probably going to leave at&t for sprint sometime next year. I never go over 2gb a month and I couldn't imagine how slow my connection would be if they started throttling my data usage. I live in Destin FL and I have seen no improvements going from an aria to an atrix network speed wise. The other day I was at work and a guy there constantly ridicules me for paying nearly $200 a month when he pays 45 on boost.. my argument was the network speed... so we downloaded some large images. Streamed some videos from youtube and on every occasion his samsung galaxy prevail would download nearly twice as fast on boosts 3g vs my atrix's "4g" ... and he has unlimited everything. Yet still my atrix speedtests are better than our work phones which are on verizon's 3g.

I think, as at&t customers especially ones that are loyal to them pay entirely too much money for sub par network performance .. the only thing they have going for them is being able to browse and use voice on the network..
[Atrix 4G General] JohnnyDanger:
I didn't even think about that. Being grandfathered into unlimited data and going over 2gb almost guarantees that we get throttled. I've stood up for AT&T for a while because although I hear constant complaints from people about price and coverage problems I have little to no problems with them. For example, I still pay less then $150 per month and have 4 lines with unlimited messaging, 2 with smart phones and one that has unlimited data. I have NEVER had a dropped call. Crazy right? But when stuff like this starts happening, I can't just stand by anymore. It's too bad that every other carrier is losing unlimited data options also. In a time that we have become more reliant on data usage, cell carriers have taken that opportunity to stick their hands in our pockets and grab what they can.

They brag about having the best networks but then complain when people use them too much, even for legit reasons. And this is not even just cell networks, but don't get me started on cable companies. It's just so F'd up.

Sorry I went on a little rant there. I will stop now.
[Atrix 4G General] Sinful Animosity:
Dark times indeed. Same boat as you, except there's 5 smart phone's on the plan I'm on, and three of us with unlimited data. It's irritating, to say the least, when I've been a customer with them for so long, and stood by them, and now they turn around and do this. I'm considering my options, but all I'm seeing is Verizon and MetroPCS around my area.
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
Pisses me off that they capped their landline DSL's as well. I've got a 250gig cap on mine. Not saying I use that much but on-demand satellite, uverse internet, 2 kids on 2gb data plans and they use wifi in the house, netflix on the Wii, PS3 and both xbox 360's, plus gaming on the 360's for my son and myself....adds up quickly. You'll see public hotspots disappearing too as a result of capping.

My phone bill with internet and 4 smart phones is close to $325 a mo.
[Atrix 4G General] klub242:
I'm outraged. I paid for an unlimited, un throttled plan in 09, but fat chance they're going to honor it and grandfather the throttled part. I tether a bit, but even without I go WAY over 2 GB between Netflix, Google Music, heavy browsing, all sorts of stuff. Not happy. The instant my data slows down I'm complaining about it being a breach of contract and ditching to... well I guess Sprint is my only option.

Sad times. I always defended AT&T to everyone who ditched them, but this pushes my button more than any decision they could make. Why don't they just crack down on unauthorized tethering instead or something? Not like it's hard to write a script for.
[Atrix 4G General] Uggo:
I dunno

I kinda of feel like all the complainers are cry-babies

Why should my network performance suffer because you have an unlimited plan that I didn't even have access to? Why my should network performance suffer because you can't be bothered to make a playlist, you need to listen to Pandora or Spotify on the train? Why should my network performance suffer because you would rather watch Netflix on the commute to work rather than pick up a book or something?

You're paying FIVE MORE DOLLARS A MONTH than I am to get infinity gigs of data. It's hard to sympathize with you.
[Atrix 4G General] klub242:
I signed a contract that's good for another year and a half saying that I get unlimited and un throttled data. The way I grew up, when you say something you stick to it all the way through, regardless of if it turns out to be inconvenient and expensive on your part. Considering it's a legally binding contract, I would think all the more so. Also, I've been a customer for nearly two years. There used to be customer loyalty and an effort to continually improve products, not take things away.

I get the need to do it, but there's so many other approaches they could take instead of going backwards.
