[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadooder:
I have speedmod kernel installed from the beginning. Is there a lagfix already built into this kernel? I was thinking about getting one click lagfix listed below. What things does the apk change?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=784691
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Why not find a kernel that has Voodoo Lag fix? There are plenty for captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Speedmod has an ext4 conversion option. Not voodoo lagfix, it's ULF (universal lag fix) pretty similar but you can choose which partitions get converted.

Op one click lag fix is the way of the dinosaurs and dodo bird. The kernel you are using is way better than an ext2 file system.

Just boot into recovery, in speedmod ulf settings there are options to convert to ext4 do that and lag fix is enabled.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadooder:
Thanks. In your opinion, is turning on lagfix worth it? What kind of speed improvement can I expect? Are there any stability issues? Why isn't it on by default when its installed?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
No idea why it's not on by default, that's how hardcore made it.

It shouldn't affect stability at all. IMO on froyo ext4 was almost necessary and the difference with it on and off was very noticeable. YMMV when it comes to speed increase though.

Gingerbread however ext4 isn't needed and from my experience actually made it laggier.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdadooder:
Thanks a lot! I need to be on froyo for other reasons and it worked great!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigofd:
You can't just install the language files you get in Crowdin. You have to unpack the rom, add the files to each app/package, repack the rom, and flash it. It's no easy task for a newbie, i had to learn all that by myself as, like you, wanted MIUI in my native language (spanish) ...

Now that i know how to do it, i add spanish language on each weekly release.

Anyway, you shouldn't get into such fuss... there are several multilanguage miui releases available...

Hey everyone. I'm new to the whole Android Rooting deal. So basically, I followed the tutorial on this website to install Bumblee 2.4 on my Lg Optimus V.

The installation was a success. And when my phone booted, the home button seems to not work. And I wasn't prompted to make a Google account, therefore its not letting me open up the market. I need help fixing this.
[HTC Rezound] riot1031:
Does anyone know if the Rezound supports full-device encryption like the RAZR or Bionic?
[HTC Rezound] Pacifik:
If not now it should be built in for ICS as it's incorporated into it like honeycomb.
[HTC Rezound] bsaunder:
My Rezound has the options for full encryption and SD encryption in the settings. However it hasn't worked well for me.

I turned it on right after I purchased it and then added all the apps I wanted; two days later it said that the SD card (sdcard2) was connected to a computer so all the apps were read only. A simple reboot didn't do anything for it, so I powered down and removed the battery and SD card and then put it all back together and booted - that time it said the SD card was no longer encrypted and needed to be formatted to be used. I never got it to accept the SD card, so I finally reformatted it and then re-installed everything.

The next day, the phone was unable to access the internal SD (sdcard ), after trying multiple times to get it back, I finally turned off encryption, allowed the phone to format the internal SD card and then reconfigured everything again.

If it was a dev phone, I wouldn't mind and I'd spend more time to figure it out and get it working correctly, but I need this one to work correctly for everyday use.
[myTouch 4G General] stephatx05:
I have searched, google searched and have found no Definite answer. I need to unroot my friends mytouch 4g. She dropped it on the corner, now the power button does not work :confused: I obviously need to flash Hboot but not possible with the power button. Any other way to do this?

Thanks in advance :cool:

[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
If it was rooted with gfree - first run gfree again to return to S-ON. Directions in gfree ("Ultimate S-OFF") thread.

Then just download and flash the stock RUU (.exe file for Windows). It'll wipe everything clean and return to bone stock.

I got teh bootz from sprint due to high data usage. I'll still be around.

SG2 on Tmobile is hot.
[Epic 4G General] vita10gy:
Care to share how much?
[Epic 4G General] nimaim:
Yea, how much is "high"? Sprint is generally very lenient with data usage.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
And how did you acrue it? Was it roaming? Tethering?

More details are absolutely needed.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Needed

Sent from my Samsung Legendary 4G, a Universe UTES phone, running "two.three.five"
[Epic 4G General] MikeyLee:
Lol seriously? With the way iPhone users are Sprints going to have to boot alot of people
[Epic 4G General] VooDooOmen:
Also, was there any ETF/or fines/fees associated with teh bootz?

Heh...maybe I'll use the crap out of my data to get out of my contract :P
[Epic 4G General] lys3rgic:
bump. would love to know more info also. I use a lot of data.
[Epic 4G General] Tomcat5:
Same here.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
Bet it was roaming data usage.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
I work in security. Basically I babysit empty buildings so I tether on my laptop every night. Playing SC2 and WoW etc. I don't know how much I was pulling but it probably was around 10 gigs a month on average. I think the fact that I've been consistently high for the last 6 months did it in conjunction

with the 4S being released. My roommate on his evo got the boot too.

I'm not paying an ETF but if anyone is interested I have a rooted Epic 4G for sale XD
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Swappa.com.
[Epic 4G General] migmartinez:
I wish I could use that much, even when tethering the most I used is 2gb in a month, the sprint service in the RGV is terrible.
[Epic 4G General] Tomcat5:
I sent you a PM.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Also I'd like to add that the stratosphere (since I was on Verizon for a week trying it out) is a good phone but f verizons data caps. I'm not paying $10 a GB. I don't care who you are money doesn't grow on trees like the way Verizon sees it. I live in Miami so network coverage is iffy on all carriers. Verizon was the worst for me, getting complete data black out zones in great areas. Sprint had the best coverage for me 3G wise but was pretty slow. I'd never get 4G at work. Now on tmo I'm getting 1.5 mb/sec to 1.8 mb/sec over 4G at work. So that's a huge performance gain for me and I haven't even rooted my SG2 yet. Tmo doesn't charge for tethering. Unlimited everything. So yeah I'm pretty happy as long as I don't get teh boot from tmo.
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
I wonder if the tethering did anything.

SC and WoW use different ports, so I'm sure some easy packet sniffing paints some major red flags. 10 gigs shouldn't trigger any red flags.....

A lot of carriers cracking down.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:

[Epic 4G General] BubZX:
How much for the phone?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Glad you will still be around X. Sorry you go the boot from the Evil conglommerate Sprint!
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
I used it as my ISP provider essentially to save money. I was downloading torrents, streaming and playing PC games most of the time.

I got the boot right before Sprint announced all the tethering apps would be blocked from the market.
[Epic 4G General] norpan111:
What do you mean when you say get the boot? They call you and tell you they don't want you as customer anymore?:a I don't get it
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Pm me an offer. It comes with a Seidio 3300 extended battery (stock included), a game gripper and a better charger. I have the original box and stuff. the epic itself is in used condition with a some scratches on the side but no visible scratches on the screen.

I'm going to put it up on the market in a couple days if nobody in the Epic community wants to buy it.
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
eeeeeewwww

I just finished my month at 60GBish on 4G on the 6th. I guess I better end that real quick.

I put a directional antenna on the roof and pointed it at the Clear Tower. I get like 600Kb/s to 1.2 Mb/s on my Epic so I killed the home internet to save the $$.

Nevermind... :eek:
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
They stopped my service at the end of the Billing cycle with zero warning . I called cs and they told me what happened after about five tries calling them. They said I was sent a letter in the mail the day I was disconnected. Have yet to receive it. Sprints customer service is horrible. I get different answers every time I call.
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
Had to have been more than 10 gigs each month.

Go online and check your usage history. It's right there so the ignorance card can't be played.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
I didn't think the wifi hardware on the epic could take that much abuse lol.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Minimum 10 gigs a month. Some months I'd be pulling 20 or 30 max.
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
I tether it to my router (as a repeater) and its use all over the house. lol

Lets just say when the net is in use, like on torrents... I can't text or use the phone at all. it just goes slow and vibrates a lot. :o

But it took 6 months right??
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Yeah. That's when my heavy data usage started. I still think this is more about impressing new sprint customers coming over for the iPhone with faster data
[Epic 4G General] Tomcat5:
This. Sprint's going to milk the iPhone all that it can while compromising the service to their other customers.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
How do you hook up the antenna to the epic?
[Epic 4G General] Tomcat5:
Doesn't that break the function of the normal antenna? That's what I remember some people saying.
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
That's quite different from your initial statement "10 gigs on average."

Did they say they knew you were tethering?
[Epic 4G General] lys3rgic:
I do agree though tmobile is probably the best carrier out ATM. they have REALLY good 4g anymore. and their phones just keep getting better.

a friend of mine just go the galaxy s ii and I LOVED it. i couldn't stop playing with it.

no lag, no problems with data, etc.

i had tmobile before i came to sprint and i kinda regret it. but i love the epic. after my contract is up i'm probably gonna switch back.
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
lol. I use a MCX plug to the W1 plug on the Back. Works Perfect!! BUT!! I have had to replace ($35 referb) my phone once b/c the 4G stopped working on the internal antenna. I still use it but very carefully. Seems if it gets jammed in to hard it will kill the internal.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
You would be surprised but I have found that the best carrier for this type of activity is one you would never guess....AT&T

BUT

only under these circumstances

, use an international or unlocked phone AT&T doesn't sell which works with their 3G/FauxG network, sign up for service (post paid) then trash the phone you bought and put the sim into your international phone, call AT&T and tell that you don't have your old phone anymore so you need to use an old unlocked T-Mobile phone and want the $15 unlimited internet plan for dumb phones, if they ask if it's a smart phone say that it's just an old T-Mobile phone and that it didn't seem smart to you then give them the IMEI number of the phone. These phones fly completely under AT&T's radar.

My sister is using a T-Mobile Vibrant on AT&T's $15 a month Unlimited Internet for Quick messaging phones and we have been tethering the crap out of that thing for months (40+Gb per month) without any ill effects all at unthrottled 6-7Mbps speeds.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Last time I was on tmo was when I had the G1. I'm happy to hear tmo has the best us version of the GS2. I'm rooting it tonight.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Does the Epic work? Lol
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Sadly, no, the Epic is CDMA. You might be able to trade for a Vibrant or Galaxy S 4G though. Not all international phones will work on AT&T's HSPA network either. You have to hunt for phones which have 850 and or 1900Mhz UMTS/HSPA/3G/4G support.

Here are some of the better ones to use,

Unlocked T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant SGH-T959 (supports 1900 MHz HSPA)

Unlocked T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4G SGH-T959V

(the one I would use) (supports 1900 MHz HSPA+)

Unlocked T-Mobile Motorola Defy (supports 850 MHz HSPA)

International Galaxy S II i9100 (supports 850 and 1900 MHz HSPA+)

International Galaxy S i9000 (supports 1900 MHz HSPA)

Rogers/Telus (Canadian) Unlocked HTC or Samsung Phones (supports 850 and/or 1900 MHz HSPA)

What is key is that they are phones AT&T doesn't sell (not in their IMEI database, so they can't force you into smart phone plans) and that they have support for at least one of AT&T's HSPA bands.
[Epic 4G General] mtwow789:
I am wondering in total how much you are paying?

For me, I am on 450 plan with Sprint so, that is about $80 per month. But I am getting very slow 3G AND intermittent so can't even tether. This is common for where I live since I checked one of my friend with Evo3D and even simple youtube video fails to play completely.

So I checked with verizon, and the lowest is 2gb per month for $70/month. Little lower but I had bad experience in the past (poor phone selection) so don't want to go back to them.

ATT has very low data limit of 200mb for $55/month, but if I use it as I am right now with Sprint I think I can easily manage it. (I have wifi all the time except when I am navigating)

I think GSM is seriously winning right now because of their HSPA+ speeds. I heard it can deliver 1~6mbps easily without sacrificing battery like WiMAX and LTE.

Also it has been a tradition that GSM carriers tend to deliver new phones quicker and it is easier to swap phones mid contract.
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
Damn how i wish sprint had sim cards

i could be using that super sexy white galaxy s 2 international version

if galaxy s 3 is that sexy in white i will seriously consider terminating my contract and jumping to att with super roaming and use that previous internet hack
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
It isn't as good of a deal because she only has 450 minutes without unlimited Mobile to Mobile and only has 200 texts (not possible to get anymore). However for the OP it sound like a good option because he can't get the great deal we have with Sprint anymore.

Her plan costs

450 Minutes $40

200 texts $5 (you have to get 1000 now which is $10~15 a month I think)

Unlimited Data $15

total $70 a month

On another note I have a better hack for you (not OP). Since you wouldn't be using more than 2gb a month I suggest you try the Straight talk hack. First you buy a Nokia E70 (

must be this phone other sims won't work

) Refurb from straight talk then swap sims with an AT&T (any AT&T phone (iPhone 4s, Inspire 4G, etc) or any of the unlocked phones I listed) phone of your choice (It can even still be locked), enter the APN info (available online) and Voila you have AT&T with FauxG speeds and unlimited talk, text, and data (keep it under 2gb or they'll terminate you) for $45 a month!
[Epic 4G General] redvexx:
Hes trolling...

So I can get out of my contract if I start abusing their service? I am gonna start downloading 20 GB a month so they will break my contract and I can sign with Boost or Virgin for 20 bucks cheaper a month.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
What?

No.

Seriously, this stuff works. I haven't personally tried the straight talk hack but I really do have a sister using her unlocked vibrant to tether at full speed on ATT. I got the straight talk hack from another site (many report that it works and I have no reason to think otherwise).

Proof

Bad idea, You don't get any roaming service if you do that and you can't return to Sprint until after a long period (5 years?).
[Epic 4G General] mtwow789:
Wait, so I can use straight talk service with any ATT phones?
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Yup, locked or unlocked, any phone you want, but, you have to do it the way I described and keep the data use under 2gb.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
While I didn't know the Vibrant was compatible, I can confirm this trick is real and has been around for years. It's cool to see that it still works.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Before we switched to Sprint this was how I got my smartphone fix within my parent's budget.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
I need the mobile to mobile . seems like a great idea. I'm wondering how bad the throttling will be on tmo after the 2GB but I heard the network tweaks on some of the roms make it bearable.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
I see you've already made your decision. ;)
[Epic 4G General] mtwow789:
Hmm, I just found out about this Wifi reliant carrier that is really cheap.

http://www.theverge.com/2011/11/8/2...s-wifi-calling-official-19-unlimited-launched

http://republicwireless.com/

They are offering $19/month with no contract.

550 min, 150 texts, 300 mb.

I think its a neat concept for people who lives near Wifi all the time.

Also this is riding on Sprint's network.

Only thing I don't like about is that they are only offering LG Optimus S.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Yeah, I would go for the straight talk deal instead with a Captivate or a ATT Nexus S. I just can't stand to use a low end phone and be so restricted.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Yeah I definitely would have preferred to stay with Sprint because I got everything working the way I liked it on my Epic, had the 25% discount and had like 6 months left before my contract was up. This time has cost me a little bit of cash but has given me a good idea of where all the major carriers are at in Miami area.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Read about this on Engadget. Companies are doing well to put smartphones in the hands of Pepe who can't normally afford them.

Again 10$ a GB on Verizon is just a total rip off.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
You had no way to bs out of it and get an Airrave or something? Say, I work security and get stuck in small bunker-like rooms. It's terrible. You're great phones are all I can do to stay sane. Can I have a work Airrave? I'll be good.
[Epic 4G General] TheFury369:

I worked technical support years ago. That job has some major burn out. Point being these guys like being jerks. It's not worth raising my blood pressure over.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
No bills. Just a five year ban
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
So I'm at work and I decided to do a speed test benchmark. I wasn't hoping for anything great considering that I'm on tmo now and this location gave me less than a mb when I was with sprint. I just got 20.42 mb a sec on this phone :O
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Yup :(

LTE couldn't come fast enough.

The next phone I get on an upgrade will hopefully be the next Nexus

Galaxy Nexus S2 with SuperAmoled HD+ RGB

Exynos 2 Quad

2gb DDR3-lp ram

Mali-800 GPU

Sprint LTE

Unicorns

Magic
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
i think hes talking about hspa+
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
I'm aware.

Sprint won't be getting HSPA+ but will eventually get LTE which is what I'm excited about. HSPA+ on Sprint would be awesome but not something they would invest in. They're just going to jump straight to LTE.

Kudos to T-mobile for getting LTE speeds out of their existing HSPA network though. For the longest time I thought HSPA+ 21mbps was a joke and could never actually achieve that speed but now I know it isn't.
[Epic 4G General] kobby2k6:
Did you lose your Phone number, because im trying to go to verizon for the nexus...they took my one year upgrade on sprint :(
[Epic 4G General] CapsLockKey:
"Unlimited" my ass.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jphXLfKO2yg

I think maybe Sprint must be able to differentiate tethered data from regular phone data, and that is why they banned you since the timing is right around when they capped tether data at 5GB.

So Sprint sells themselves as truly unlimited data, but in the background will just ban you if they think you are using too much of your unlimited data. What a joke.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
Yes I lost it. I was very angry. I asked about keeping it and they said it's impossible at this point. I am happy with my new number. It's just as easy as my old one.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
My wife spend half an hour on the phone with Verizon just trying to get her numbers back on her phone after she recovered it stolen. They failed numerous times. She and I found her contacts on their website (which the person at the store said she didn't have access to log into, wtf???) and figured out how to restore them. I found Sprints in-store and on the phone customer service to actually fix my problems that were much harder than that.
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
If you really want out then install a Verizon PRL....
[Epic 4G General] sauron0101:
So AT&T doesn't monitor data usage on phones outside their IMEI database?

It's a shame tbh... I wish the Epic had world-phone capabilities (ex: like the Droid 2 Global).
