[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Sorry if I'm not being clear. Every phone I ever have owned (Android, Blackberry, iOS, Windows Mobile) have been able to click "Select Network Operator" ... and simple as that, it searches for any available GSM operator, and if your SIM allows it'll register to it. It's built into any phone that's been made (and I've had hundreds)... yet on THIS phone, the Infuse 4G, it's greyed out, disabled, etc, whatever you want to call it. Not sure why ATT does it... wait, yeah I do, so they can control yet another aspect of the industry. Ugh. Just need a way to re-enable that menu.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] SSJ_Gomike:
That's my point....

The Infuse and its brethren are different and have a different way to connect to euro and asian networks....

Take your example of Manila for example..... The Phillipines use gsm 900 and gsm 1800 for regular voice calls and wcdma 2100 for 3g data services.....

You can select to connect to any of those 3 networks while there... Now normally you would set the baseband to connect to wcdma 2100, but for this example (cuz i already made it) I'll use gsm 900....

When selecting gsm 900, the phone will only allow sims that connect to that network to work, and will connect the sim to that network....

Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
I just put my wife's T-Mobile SIM into my unlocked Infuse, rebooted, did a search for networks and I got ATT and T-MOBILE. TMO was active.

Sounds to me like you're really not unlocked.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Sorry that just doesn't hold water. Here in the US where we have 2 GSM carriers which operate on different bands that explanation works fine, but in the rest of the world GSM is much more prevelant and many countries (Thailand, Japan, Philippines, UK, France etc) have 3-5 GSM carries and they often have several in a particular frequency range. The OS obviously supports the selection of carrier and other Samsung handsets allow it just fine so its obviously a restriction att has put on the phone ... to have a phone that doesnt manually select a network if desired is like having a car where you can't change the radio station.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dman91:
I just entered this on my infuse: *#2263# (unlocked running Infused v1.5.3 with AT&T sim) I get RAT Selection Option is restricted. Any ideas why?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
U need Rogers radio
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dman91:
Without that I can't select a custom network?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Without that you can't select bands. With it you can but you can't force the phone on a particular network of your chosing which blows and if I can't find a way I'm going back to my Inspire 4G
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dman91:
That sucks I can't believe it can have that limitation.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
I can't either. Its absurd. First smartphone ever to not allow manual network selection. Android natively allows it but in settings the option is greyed out which likely means att has blocked it. Anyone on a custom rom know if its still greyed out? I'm guessing the development would have to somehow enable it because if the custom rom is based on the att original then it needs to be modded like the other att crap built in.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Can someone with Infused or Refused open their network settings in the Network Selection and see if it's greyed out and set to "Default Setup" ??? Trying to figure out if there's any way to manually select a network by name. Otherwise, this phone has to go on eBay and I have to go back to the HTC Inspire. I can't have a phone that won't allow me to select my network operator.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
As I stated in a message earlier in this thread mine are NOT grayed out. I was able to pop in a T-MO SIM from my wife's phone and my list of networks showed AT&T and T-Mobile and I was able to use the phone on T-MO. With the AT&T SIM it only showed AT&T but NOTHING was grayed out. All options were selectable.

Are you 100% sure your phone really is unlocked?

This was with both Infused 1.53 and now 2.0 Beta 3.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Yeah I'm 100% sure mine is unlocked. I've used 4 different carrier's sim over the past week, lol.

So my guess is that when it's got the AT&T ROM is when it's locked out to prevent accessing the carrier selection.

To confirm, you're going to Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile networks>Network operators and from there you're telling me where it says "Network setup" it's selectable and you're able to chose a different carrier, or even see that it's AT&T?

I guess I need to try Gingerbread on Infused then, if this is the case.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
See screen prints added to prev message. Yes, with a TMO SIM I have TMO and AT&T showing under select providers. I can select AT&T but it won't register with them because it's an T-MO SIM.

It was like that for both Froyo and GB with the Infused ROMs.

This is with the AT&T SIM installed. With the T-MO I get both.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Okay, well that's good news and bad news, lol. :-) Thanks so much for confirming this for me. I'll wait until Infused GB is out of beta then slap it on my phone. Bummer AT&T locks down their network selection toggle. They really want to control every aspect of my life :-(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
If you have CWM & Rom Manager you can easily flip back between your current OS and GB. The GB "beta" is as good as original stock. It's been purring along like it was supposed to be there. Really no need to hold off. Especially if you have backups.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Hmm, so when you say swtch off do you mean backup\restore, or is there a new dual boot kinda option? That'd be really cool!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
No, I mean just load one or the other through Rom Manager. Takes about 5 minutes. Anyway, Infused 2 Gingerbread is now considered "stable" so just go for that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
I'll give it a go today... my luck with Infused has not been good, but I'm going to cross my fingers and hope it goes well :-)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Bella you should be ok. Its gotten a little easier,and alot more stable.good luck
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Okie, think positive thoughts for me.

One question I haven't seen answered... do the add ons to disable battery percentage work on the new 2.0? I just don't love seeing my battery tick down percent by percent, hehe
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
You know I would assume yes but have not tried
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
I was reading through the front page GTG wrote and it seems it's fine as long as not combined with certain other add ons which is no big deal since that's the only add on I really care about (for now).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Oh yea my bad don't use the blue scroll bounce Haddon. If u want colors scroll bounce use yellow and then disable percent. I forgot about that. Its kinda early still here.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] SSJ_Gomike:
i just flashed GTG's GB v2 stable and the "default setup" is no longer grayed out. i am also using the "disable battery %" addon and it works awesome....i too hate watching the battery tick down lol...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Me too... I am now able to select the network manually yaaay!

I installed both 2.0 and the no-battery-percentage. It seems like the battery life is noticeably better on this ROm than Infused 1.5.3, which I used before and didn't like for the reason of poor battery life.

The only negative I've noticed about this ROM thus far is that it still hasn't worked out the glitch of when you open an email, then go back to the home screen, you still have to go in and click back in the email to clear the message indicator badge. That's been an annoyance for me for some time, hopefully someone can resolve it pretty soon. Seems fairly basic to "mark read on open" but I'm not a dev nor do I claim to know anything about how this stuff works, hehe.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Pierre9998:
I am having this issue: I want the samsung infuse to select only the GSM network and no matter if I choose this option with *#2263# and #*#*4636#*#* the mobile chooses the other networks as well. Any help will be much appreciated!

Well, in that case, I'm going to cancel my download. It was halfway finished, and I had some hope :-(

Dell needs to make their site less confusing. I was directed there from my streak 7 account while searching for downloads and drivers. Although it does say download & drivers for tablet Streak. Sorry about the confusion
[Dell Streak 7] jayfr76:
nope, no 2.2.2 update. its for the streak 5. Just got off the phone with dell and there are no external update links for the 7. So lame, they wanted me to send it in for repair...F that.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firtvid20:
Is there any good media player (for music and video) out there for the Xperia? I hate the Windows Media Player because it is a little laggy and I cannot, for some reason, control the volume at all (I tap the + and - and the hardware button for the volume control, but the volume stays that same). I also have WOW SRS HD installed so I assume that and media application should work with it?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radzix27:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeb96:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
For those who sent your phone to LG directly (Stellar Wireless) for a repair/replace, how long did it take them to get a phone back to you?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thekid5:
It took me about a week for them to repair it once they received it. I sent from NY to Texas Priority US Mail on Monday. They received by Wednesday. They fixed it by the following Wednesday and i received it back by that Saturday three days later. They are pretty speedy.

One thing I would stress though is that you do not want a refurbished phone. I have read somewhere on the internet that if LG sends you a refurbished phone that you cannot update it to Gingerbread for some reason. I cannot confirm that this is true but that's what I've heard.

I am kind of pissed off at them my self. They did send my original phone back to me but they said if worse case they can not fix it, they will send a refurbished one. I told them F no. I paid full price with tax $600 and I expect either my phone or a brand new one if the repair can't be made. I would have purchased a refurb off ebay for half that. They claim that refurb is just as good. I say bullshyt. A refurb is someone else's probem that they finally fixed but couldn't fix at the time of that persons mail in. And besides, if a refurb was the same, then LG or the Tmobile store that I have originally purchased the phone from would have given me a brand new one on the spot. Suck it. Don't accept a refurb. They did not budge though. They said repair or refurb. Good Luck with LG Scum. They did fix the restarting issue, but when I got it back I have a GPS Lock on issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
Thanks! I sent my phone by Priority Mail last Monday and they got it Wednesday, so I guess I'm looking at getting it back by next weekend.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] radpsxlist:
I sent mine to them on a Thursday they got it that Friday (one state away). Just got it back today (Thursday. There turn around time seemed very quick to me. It has the latest version and baseband on it. It however is not the phone I sent them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Maris_:
I sent mine off July 22 via FedEx and just got it back today. Oddly enough, the repair ticket enclosed with my phone said they replaced the touch screen and the reason for the repair was a faulty touch button. The actual reason was because the LG Tool erased my baseband after it said I had a successful update so I couldn't use the T-Mo network, only wireless.

Not sure where the faulty Touch button information came from, but I guess it's good I got a new touchscreen if something showed up during their "quality" check. I checked the IMEI and Serial Numbers, and they match my original box, so it's the same phone repaired, not a refurb swap.

It seems to be working ok so far, so I'll know for sure in a few days.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] affenzeit:
LG employee here- Refurb is kind of a misleading term. I deal directly with Stellar and providing them parts, and when they say refurb, it might as well be a new phone. I mean, they replace a lot of stuff and run it through a gang of tests. Do things slip through the cracks? Absolutely. But, in all honesty, by the time they get done with refurbishing a phone, it is just as good as a new phone. Now, if you go through some further removed 3rd party refurb centers, you will see issues, but Stellar is in the same building as us, so we keep a pretty tight watch over their work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Maris_:
I was fortunate enough to get mine fixed by the Stellar folks, and what great work they did. I thought I had a pretty decent phone before the fix, but now it is pure fantastic. So far no unexplained reboots or other oddities and I have really been putting it through its paces.

Please pass along my thanks to the "stellar" Stellar Wireless Technology techs.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganiman:
I have the wifi version of the Galaxy Tab 10.1. I found an apk for the Google Videos app, as it is not yet available in the market for this tablet. This apk installs and runs "normally" on my HTC G2. The app will install on the Galaxy 10.1 but force quits whenever I try to run it. I read in another topic here that the LTE version of this tablet comes with the Google Videos app, so I am assuming it works there. Has anyone gotten the Google Videos app to work on the Wifi version of this tablet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djchad72:
My guess is the model number is not setup in the Android Market. As you will notice we have the "Books" app and can see and search on books in the Android Market. Your Movies app is probably force closing because when it tries to load the initial screen, the Android market cant match the device model the tablet app sends. It sends this to retrieve content compatible with the app and device.

I'm about to run down to the shop to get myself a new device. Now i'm considering between the Sensation and the S2. Just one question before i decide and i hope somebody can help me out.

1. In the S2, by default, can i link my contacts to Facebook? This will allow the contact picture to change according to their FB profile pix. HTC Sense allows that. Can S2 UI do it?

2. Any chance of flashing a HTC Sense ROM into the S2 and it actually works? Cos i remember reading somewhere it's hardware coded?

Appreciate some feedback. The sooner i get feedback, the sooner i can run down to the store to buy the device :p

[Android Themes] d_1000:
I am reviving and moving the thread from the Evo forum where fachadick started this tremendous thread, with his approval. These flashable zips are simple to use and should work on virtually any device.....moreover, the WORST that will happen is nothing will change. Finally, your device must be rooted.

Here is a link to the original thread 300 Flashable Font Packs - Change your system fonts the easy way! Most of the edify font appear in post 1006, 1014, 1418 and 1419.

To use:

Just copy to sdcard and flash - these only change three files in the /system/fonts folder (effectively changing your main system fonts), so you can flash one on top of the other until you find one you like, but if you want to do a Nandroid backup first, that's probably the best idea.

Separate font for the dialer

JsChiSurf developed a hack over in this thread this thread so that you can have a different font for just the dialer.

Create your own FontPacks/Fix bolding issues

It's actually really easy. All you need to do, is get yourself a ttf of the font in regular and bold - or just regular if it doesn't come in bold. rename two copies of the regular ttf "Clockopia.ttf" and "DroidSans.ttf". rename the bold version (or the third regular version) "DroidSans-Bold.ttf" (note these are case sensitive). open up one the fontpacks with 7zip, go into the system folder, then go into the fonts folder. Drag the new fonts (the ones you renamed) and drop them into the now open fonts directory in 7zip - say yes when it asks you if you're sure you want to copy. Close down 7zip, change the name of the zip file, and you're ready to go! As long as you do this exactly as I described (and don't add or remove other files), you don't even need to resign the fontpack!

Use ADB instead of flashing

If you want to push the fonts to the phone with ADB instead of flashing them, check out this post

Use Terminal Emulator instead of flashing

If you want to use terminal emulator to change the fonts instead of flashing them, check out this post

MIUI Rom

These packs will not work for you. However, EndlessDissent put up a thread on miui-dev where he packaged up a ton of these and put them in a format that miui's built-in themer can recognize.

Font Changer

Although I have not used Font Changer from the Market, Many have said it works well....feel free to extract the .ttf files from a font-pack and use them!

Finally, if you do not see a font you are looking for, post a link to the .ttf file and I will make a font-pack for you.

The font-packs are organized Alphabetically in the first few posts. I will try to make a preview for each one......but this is a lot of work, unless someone wants to help...hint...hint!
