Looks to me like you are having serious problems with your data speeds.

Any thing less than 600 kbps on sprint network is not good.

I also have problems where I live but at least I am able to use 4g here in baker louisiana.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popssracer:
Unfortunately here in Greenville, SC, those data speeds are a fact of life, best I can tell. I would very much like to see someone else here in Gville post some data results that show different, but I dont know anyone personally here that has a sprint phone. It does not seem to matter what rom, modem, tweaks i use, those are the speeds I get. These test mirror tests I did about 2 months ago as well. Oh, and an added bonus, our sprint stores here are abysmal, staffed by idiots, and I have to pay 10 dollars a month for 4g that it is not available anywhere in the entire state. All this talk about not having a data cap or throttling on the sprint network is irrelevant for me, because without 4g and with 3g speeds like that, I could never reach a cap even if one existed. At least here, Sprint is a massive joke on all fronts, and I wish I had never signed a contract with them.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HafizNafes89:
I think that sprint is broke and they cannot afford to serve reliable high speed data to all of their customers. Next time I complain to them im going to make sure I tell them that.

I dont know why would sprint spend $6 billion to start selling iphones when they could have used that money to go all over the country fixing their 3g. But they keep denying that something is wrong with their 3g and telling customers to make sure that their prl is updated, which means nothing if sprint acually had data towers in our areas.

This is So Ture i live in newton nj and still No 3g but Sprint Still Claims there is 3g in the area..... and with the new "PRL" surveys is Worst then Ever
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HafizNafes89:
I have a motorola photon now and 3g speeds in my home area are still less than 150kbps.

sprint should lower are bills until they can get their stuff fixed. Its not fair that we have to pay more than t-mobile users with such horiffic service.

Hi

When I try to set up exchange email on my Samsung galaxy SII, after entering all the required information the phone simply freezes for some time and then Reboots

After it reboots it formats all the data and gets into factory default mode, where in I have lost all my installed Apps and need to enter everything from scratch.

During reboot I also see that it says no permission on /system/csc/ATT.

This phone is not rooted and I just got this phone couple of weeks back from ATT

Phone Details:

Android Version: 2.3.4

Baseband: I777UCKH7

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UCKH7

Appreciate any help on this

Thanks

I rooted my infuse with superoneclick, I'm trying to install custom rom's, cyanogen probly but I don't know what to do next, I have the little superuser app in my drawer but before I download a Rom do I need to install a different recovery program? I read it comes with something like 3e? I dont know much about this, any help would b much appreciated, thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] omnimanx1:
There are many many threads available to address this question directly. Look at the top 5 or 6 topics on the development forum. You will find tons of info there.

This is the simple answer.

The complex answer requires your input... What mod do you intend to use? Do you plan on using a modded kernel? Etc.. again I would refer you to the development forum for answers.

Hope this helps °) and good luck with your adventure.

Hi all,

What are the benefits of flashing my AT&T GS2 with I9100 software? Will this brick my device?

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
The 'benefits' are:

1. No working buttons. i9100 has only 3 buttons, some of them are in the opposite position than i777.

2. No voice calls or dropped voice calls.

Stick with firmwares/ROMs that are based on i777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dungeon47:
None yet, but that may change depending on where development goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
i9100

Actually there are some benifits in flashing your i777 phone with the i9100 rom,

for starters it will be an excellent learning experience for you and you will learn

how to use Odin3 and all the button combinations on your phone.

After learning all of that stuff no one will ever call you a NOOB !!! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
If the ROM includes bootloaders, it could possibly hardbrick your phone.

Otherwise - it'll be a good lesson in returning back to stock.

It IS possible with some effort and knowledge to port an I9100 ROM to the I777, but you can't just straight-flash.

Designgears did it with Perception, I'm working on a "proof of concept" port for SensatioN by Crysis21. If Crysis21 gives permission, I'll be posting the PoC port including a high-level guide for how I got there to the development forums.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jgrimberg1979:
I am Hoping that more "porting" of roms happens as time goes on because if you take a peek over in the other forums, the have some many tweaks, kernals, and roms than one can dream of! It makes me drool when I see it. One reason why there are so many choices and development is because the phone has been out longer, but the biggest reason is because they have devs all over the world cooking up goodies. I wish there was an easy way of porting goodies.

Also if you flash a i9100 it isn't necessarily true that you wont get data or make a call, more than likely it you will get data even if it flashes a modem. But as the other Guy said, your button mapping will be off and you wont be able to use your back key. All the other keys will work. Even that you could easily fix by going in and changing the mapping
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Some of that I9100 stuff is utter and total crap...

However, I did have success in porting an I9100 ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19000364#post19000364

I describe the process there. I haven't posted to dev yet, as I didn't do THAT much development work and I want the ROM dev's permission to do more than post in a rather obscure thread. If I do post to Dev, it's going to be more of a "proof of concept" post, I really don't plan on maintaining that port as I'm on a "if I haven't done it myself, I'm not running it" kick for the purposes of learning the Android userland side of things.

[Q] HELP! Boot loop after running "ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher" App on Galaxy Gio GT-S5660M

in an attempt to get "adhoc" network support, I did the following

installed and ran "Smart Wifi Scanner" which recommended, and I installed some "Wifi Library" to support adhoc networks

it didn't work, so I uninstalled the library app.

installed and ran "ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher"

(the app requested root access, I granted it, then the system shutdown abruptly - i.e. immediately off, not normal shut down)

I turned the phone back on, and tried running the "ZT-180 Adhoc Switcher" app a second time.. again phone turned off instantly.

Now it boots up, system is fully running and loading home screen etc.

but then reboots after about 7 seconds, and just continues in this loop.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hinaini:
here is what I have done so far in an attempt to recover

using CWM, restored the following

- boot

- system

- cache

(I am trying to avoid the data, as I don't want to loose all the ondevice data)

I also tried CWM "Fix Permissions" which appears to just have crashed.

I also tried booting without SIM card

... at which point, the system loaded w/o my home screens or widgets configured, and complained about a bunch of apps crashing ... but otherwise loaded, until I tried to turn the WiFi on ... as which point -> back into boot loop

(note this is not the type of boot loop described else where, the system actually launches, but then reboots)

.... I would appear to have to do with the Wifi ... somehow broke it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamanjain:
I'm having the exact same problem. Phone is soft reboot loop after installing ZT-180 Adhoc switcher. I have manged to get back on by switching to aeroplane mode (same as removing the sim card). But I am not able to fix it.

Opening the application again simply soft reboots the device again. Did you find any solution ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
So I had a Droid 3 on Verizon on a prepaid line ($95 for 450 talk, unlimited text, and unlimited data) but that was 3G.

With the gNexi coming out, I was wondering if I would even be able to use it's 4g capabilities on my prepaid line? I'm obviously going to buy it at full-retail price but will the 4G even work or will I be stuck on 3G all the time? :(

I can't do contracts...

Should I wait for T-Mobile to get it and use their 4G prepaid instead?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I'm unsure if VZW has a LTE prepay service. That's something you have to look into separately. My guess is they don't. Unless they explicitly say that your prepay covers LTE I would expect to only get 3G.

As far as switching to a different carrier no one can tell you which is better. Its all about where you will use the phone and its your call.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clearym:
I just did an online chat with a VZW rep, here it is:

Please hold for a Verizon Wireless sales representative to assist you with your order. Thank you for your patience.

You are now chatting with 'Kiara'

Kiara: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?

You: I was wondering if 4G phones like the Droid Bionic are eligible for the Prepaid Smartphone plans???

Kiara: I do apologize for the inconvenience, although the Bionic is not able to be pre paid

You: Are their any 4G phones available for the Prepaid plans?

You: And/or can you tell me if there are any plans to offer any???

Kiara: I do apologize although at this time there are not

You: Ok, thank you for your help

So, looks like you can't, at this time, use a 4G phone on their prepaid plans.

I currently have a Nexus S on T-mobile's $30 month prepaid plan (100 mins, unl. text, unl. data*throttled after 5GB), and I love it but I don't use my phone much for calls... I plan on getting the Galaxy Nexus and using it on this plan once it's available.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Yeah it looks like I'll have to wait for the galaxy nexus to drop on TMobile :(

WoW this sucksss.... It probably won't even come out until late December...

Maybe I should just import? No idea how it works but I want my nexus asap

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Look on the bright side... t-mo plans are cheaper than Verizon. So you'll save money if you switch. But then again tmo reception around your area would play a big role too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Yeah I looked into it and Tmobile is way better than Verizon. I live in NYC so reception shouldnt be a problem at all. Now I'm just trying to figure out if I should import the 16GB model or wait for the 32GB US model :/ bleh ... I wonder when Tmobile will be getting it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If you have T-mo service in the area then its sooo much better. Just wait, don't import. You'll probably have to buy it unlocked (probably best buy, just like Nexus S) but you'll be better off for it. You don't want to sign a 2year for a Nexus on VZW and get blocked tethering and crap on it.

---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

its all up in the air. As I said above ^, they might not "get it" officially at all. Might have to buy unlocked from Google/Best Buy.

But the winner is that the T-mo plans can be as low as 1/2 the price of VZW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Actually they have a $30 Prepaid plan with 100talk/unlimited text/ and unlimited data (5gb of 4G) -- available only on new line activation.

Btw can you clarify the "unlocked from google/best buy" part? Would I still have to use a sim card if Tmobile wont officially sell it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
yea their prepay options are pretty epic. 100min is a bit low for most though. I was just referring to their postpay options that are pretty cheap too. I've looked into moving from my EM+ no-contract plan to a prepay lately actually.

Well if you want my opinion I think they'll end up just selling it exactly like they did with the Nexus S. They sold it online, and they offered it via Best Buy unlocked. You'd buy the phone, then buy your service and get a SIM card from AT&T or T-mobile (or Simple Mobile, or whatever) separately and plug it in. The GN is pentaband HSPA+ and will work with pretty much any SIM in the world.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Speaking from personal experience, the problem with T-Mobile in NYC is that as soon as you are a few feet below ground level, you lose signal. When you can get 5 bars, it's great, T-Mobile probably has the least congested network of anyone, and you enjoy superb 3/4G speeds. But you will be frustrated by how spotty the coverage is. Go 20 miles North to Westchester or 20 miles east to LI and you'll often find yourself exiting buildings to get a signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Lol that's alright I don't leave the city anyways. What I am wondering is what happens when you deplete your limited use of the 4g data (I'll get 5gb). Someone told me that you get bumped down to EDGE(2G) speeds, but I thought you only go down to 3G.

Sent from the parietal lobe of your cerebral cortex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
As I (and many others) explained in the other thread about T-mobile:

- You get 5GB of data, that's 4g/3g/2g.

- Once you use all 5GB in a month, you get throttled.

- Throttled speeds are in the range of what EDGE is, even though your phone still says "3G" up in the status bar.

- Once your billing period ends, you get a new 5GB batch of data.

There's no discerning between 4G and 3G by T-mobile. HSPA+ is just a fast version of T-mobile's 3G network. Its not separate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robertlawson225:
Just curious has any one looked into metroPCS they say they allow any cdma phone on their network and they have lte. There speeds may not be the greatest and not the best coverage but the price is spot on and unlimited!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Don't think it'll work. You'd have to unlock it somehow, and even then I think theres going to be inconsistencies with the LTE frequencies they use, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robertlawson225:
I thought that all nexus devices where unlocked developer phones. also i just talked to metroPCS and they did say hardware wise any cdma ohone will work and so will the LTE but, there might be a problem with software incompatibilities. but if that is true i would think our fellow xda members would figure out how to fix any software problems
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It won't be unlocked from the factory because 1) its CDMA/LTE with VZW specific bands, and 2) its being made to order for Verizon to subsidize it (which means they will SURELY dictate that its locked).

The Nexus devices have historically been sold full price without a carrier subsidy (and therefore are unlocked) because google wants them to be used anywhere in the world with any SIM card. This is different because there are carriers involved from the start (and the device is CDMA).

Also, I'm pretty sure the LTE won't be interoperable between the two carriers. Verizon will have their own proprietary network stack for use with their LTE service, and it uses slightly different frequencies from other carriers for LTE, specifically so that their devices won't be interoperable with other networks. They want you to buy a VZW phone and stay on VZW (dirty play, but that's how they roll).

Hope that clarifies things a little bit. Now no one knows for sure how much of the issues can be fixed with new firmware flashes, so I guess we'll see when it comes out. For example I know a lot of people use Sprint and Verizon phones with different custom firmware to run on networks like Virgin, Boost, and Cricket in order to cut down the monthly bill.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] robertlawson225:
well lets just hope some one out there can figure out how to make a phone like this run on a reasonabale priced carrier well other than t-mobile
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spud1:
Hi,

I've had my HTC titan for a few weeks now (since UK launch), and I am having a problem with the phone rebooting itself in my pocket, when I sit down. Now I am pretty sure that this is actually a windows phone bug AKA "Feature", but one that is more evident on the Titan due to it's size.

The problem is that when I sit down and lean forward (e.g. to tie my shoes), the power button gets pressed into my hip and is held down..and then after a few seconds the phone reboots. This is even with the locking enabled and pin protection.

Has anyone else come across this issue? Is there a way to prevent the phone rebooting from a long press of the power button? I am seriously regretting switching over to windows mobile again because of this issue..it's a real pain..I don;t mind if there is an app/mod I can install to fix this if it's not possible via standard settings (something like pShutXP for WM6) ..any ideas at all would be *very* welcome!

Thanks,

Spud/Pete
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake.:
so, let me get this straight:

1) you want to disable the power button? How would you turn off the phone afterwards?

2) to turn off the phone, you need to slide down the lockscreen, and this is very unlikely to happen

3) if "you are tying your shoes" long enough, this will initiate hard shutdown of the device

So no, no way, carry the phone elsewhere.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Yeah, I'm confused by this too - as of Mango, simply holding down the power button won't ever turn off the phone (though it will show half the lock screen, with a prompt to slide it down fully to turn the phone off). Since the Titan comes with Mango... yeah, confused.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spud1:
No..I am not talking about turning off the phone - thats completely different as you say, you have to slide down the screen and as its capacitive..that's pretty unlikely to happen in my pocket.

I am talking about the phone rebooting - I can replicate it in my hand by holding down the power button and the phone will reboot itself without touching the screen.

I don't want to disable the power button - I want to disable this reboot on long press functionality..as it's a right pain.

Maybe this is peculiar to the Titan rather than a general WinMob feature..but try it on your mango phone - lock the phone, and hold down the power button for around 10 seconds..don't touch the screen. Does it reboot?

Ideally holding down the button should just show the "slide to turn off" screen and nothing else, there is no need for that kind of hard reboot function when you can take the battery out on these devices..

Suggesting that I just don't have my phone in my pocket is not very helpful tbh- where else should I carry it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
No, my HD7 does not reboot if I hold the power button. I almost wish it would, since if the screen locks up I can't power-cycle the phone without removing the battery.

If there's not anyway to carry the phone such that it doesn't hit the power button (not a problem I have with my HD7, but I've never tried carrying a Titan in my pocket), consider getting a case - many of them can make the power button a little "stiffer" and less likely to be pressed accidentally.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BAM.:
I can confirm the problems Spud1 has!

Just like him i own myself a HTC Titan and with WP7.5 you can reboot the phone even when you don't slide down to shut down the pohone.

And that is VERY VERY annoying, even so much that i almost want to switch back for an android phone...

You can replicate this "feature" bij locking the phone when you push the start button on the top and put the phone in rest. (black screen) Then hold down the start button and do nothing. You get the half"Slide down screen to shut down the phone. Still don't do anything, no sliding, just hold the button. After 6/7seconds the phone wil just reboot!

This happens me also and can be replicated at least also on a HTC Trophy (it just shuts down) i believe it can be replicated on the Samsung omnia7.

This is something were i had contact over by chat and phone with HTC. But they will not help or are in no position to sort this out... A brick wall, and i got dissapointed by service.

I dont know how to get in contact with MS, otherwise i would love to do this!

So people, try it out, en then someone to solve this thing, i would rather pull my battery for a restart than this "feature"

PS. sorry for my typo's as a first post..
