So...

this is my current Situtation...

I've been under a Contract for +14 months now with my career; when i first got the contract i got an Xperia X10 Back on October 2010 but i got bored of it and around May this year i made a switch for Free with them for the SGS1 which i must say is a beautiful phone and I really love how the phone works even it's more than 16 months old since it came out.

Here in Guatemala we have not too many options in regards of High End Phones such as the SGS2 or HTC at all... But i have the option of a Free Upgrade for 1 Xperia Arc in early December.

I've got someone from here who is willing to buy my SGS1 for a really good price (around USD $500 - High End phones are kinda expensive here :) hehe) and i wanted to ask for your opinion if you guys think is it worth to upgrade to the Arc and sell the SGS1... I mean i have the option of selling any of them and keep the other...

What do you guys think?

Thanks!

Will this phone work properly on Fido's 3G network? Does someone have this phone running on Fido's 3G network? I've heard you need to change the phone's APN settings. Can someone give me some clarification?

S2:

2G Network	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network	HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100

Fido:

The Fido network runs on GSM 1900 and offers coverage in major urban areas in Canada. It has been so since its inception. After Microcell was purchased by Rogers, the Fido network was available to Rogers customers. The Rogers GSM network operates at 850 MHz, and while a fee was previously required for Fido customers to access the Rogers network, this is no longer the case. The end result is that both Fido and Rogers customers can now access and use either network or both with a single account, device and SIM card. Regardless of which network is accessed, Fido customers will see "Fido" as the network name, and Rogers customers will see "Rogers" as the network name.

Similarly, HSPA+ service is available in 850 MHz and 1900 MHz frequencies. The maximum theoretical download speed is of 21 Mbit/s. Fido customers should also be able to access Rogers' LTE network shortly after it becomes available as of 2011 in Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.

I use my phone daily in a non-Verizon network, so having Data Roaming enabled is very important for me. The new ROM I installed, however, does not have a menu option for enabling/disabling Data Roaming.

Does anyone know of a way to do this through script? Or maybe there is something that can be changed in "build.prop" (or another file) that would change the default setting of Data Roaming disabled to be enabled?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blkwlf:
Thank you, but that isn't quite what I'm looking for. It looks like it could possibly work, but I I'm looking for a way to permanently turn the Data Roaming on. I don't care if I need to edit the ROM files before I flash them or if there is some sort of hack I can install/perform after the ROM is running.

Maybe there is a way to install the AOSP or stock version of the component that controls this? Does anyone know what component controls the data roaming?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] st@matis:
hmm i dont know how could you achieve this....its a bit more advanced
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raymccoy:
Still looking for the magic bullet

I'm very interested in this as well.

Does anybody know if the Roam Control app is able to keep Data roaming on at all times? I have not been able to find a trial version to try it out...

Or is there any other way of keeping it on? For a Motorola Droid 3.

I have tried modifying build.prop with many different settings that I have found in other threads but nothing has worked so far. I need to re-enable data roaming manually maybe 20 times a day.

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raymccoy:
Nobody?

I sent a mail to the author of Roam Control asking if his app is able to do this but still no answer :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raymccoy:
I finally took the problem in my own hands and managed to make a small app that re-enables data roaming at the touch of a button.

I needs to be installed as a system app for it to work, but it works! :laugh:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thorbito:
Well you're not alone

I want to permanently enable data roaming but several Google searches have led me to only this thread. I have just downloaded Roaming Control and will tinker with it to see if it solves the issue of the constant nagging data roaming warnings.

I am confused. In my Jellybean settings there's a selection field titled "Show roaming reminder". Even though I have set it to "Never" it still gives a data roaming warning every single time. Either I am misinterpreting the use of that selection field or it's flat out broken or disabled by the carrier.

:rolleyes:

In the kitchenpro app, under themes you will find 'Theme Restore Package v1'. Download and flash/install it from within the app. Or simply reflash the rom from cwm recovery, as its a no-wipe version.

It would be very nice if you guys help me get one if you all are interested in me developing for you all. Theres alot of users here so if you all donate what ever you can, it would help. You are not being forced so if you are not interested don't start commenting here saying bad stuff.

Things i could bring here are.

Custom kernels

My actual ROMs sure

CyanogenMOD 7

ICS maybe when source is out.

Mods as CRT and more stuff you guys like.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] |Melvin|:
I want to see where im violating rules please. You have a link my dear mod? Because this is more likely a bounty thread. This is not a ROM thread with me asking users to donate or better, asking for my payment as you implied. I dont have this device so i thought i would do this since my current phone has some parts as this phone and i could bring my stuff to it. Now mod tell me where i violated the rules. THANKS

I dont see users saying bad things here. All i see is people willing to help me get the phone.

We reserve the right to close any thread, at any time. You re-opening this thread is an abuse of a privilege afforded to Recognized Developers.

If you are looking for another explanation: We do not permit members to create threads solely for the purpose of having people donate to them on the promise they will purchase a device and start developing for it. [BOUNTY] threads are generally left alone provided that someone besides the person receiving the money is the OP, but again, we can and will close a thread if it gets out of hand.

I would upgrade to arc from SGS1 any day of the week... it's a really really great bit of kit... Love the camera, love the screen.. and it's not 100% confirmed for ICS but leaks have suggested that it will.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveybaby:
Sony have officially stated that all of their 2011 xperia models will be getting ICS. That includes the original arc as well as the arc S.

As far as the upgrading question goes, i would say the arc is definitely worth it. There are faster/more powerful phones out there, but nothing as well designed or with as good a camera.
