[Hero CDMA General] rubyknight:
Sprint makes it easy to swap really... Just log into the sprint website and find the option in there. It asks for the numbers located on the back of the phone under the battery and then transfers your service to the new phone. Your old one should still have a clean ESN and be good to sell. My family has gone the eBay route a few times now to save our upgrades.

And really to anyone talking about only going for pure stock Android phones or waiting for the galaxy nexus, your missing out lol... Take 5 minutes on a 1ghz phone with Sense and you'll be hooked. The Hero just didn't have the power to handle it. And the Galaxy Nexus is really kind of a letdown tbh. In literally 3 months we'll see 2+ ghz quadcores and higher than 8 megapixel cameras as a bonus. And 4.0 ICS will be all over the place by then
[Hero CDMA General] sleepyEDB:
Nice, thanks for the info. I did an ESN swap once before with Sprint when I bought a phone from wirefly.com, but that was with an upgrade. I didn't realize they'd allow it while still under contract.

[Hero CDMA General] kurtosterhage:
Thanks for all of the advice on the NS4G. I decided to go with the E4GT after using my brother's phone over Thanksgiving break. It will suit my needs just fine for the next two years.
[Hero CDMA General] Shelnutt2:
Per chance do you know if this works with the old non-premium data plans? If I swap ESNs will they want to charge me the $10 a month "premium data" plan for a smartphone? I'm boycotting upgrading until this goes away. I mean my heroc does everything I need and we've almost got ICS there, I don't see a reason to upgrade. (Yes armv7/front camera/dual core/soon to be LTE would be nice but those aren't "necessities" imo)
[Hero CDMA General] rubyknight:
The $10 fee is just for any data plan now I think, and its here to stay :P There isn't a loophole there though I don't think. If you switch to a 4G phone they'll probably slap it on there.

I just bought my Nexus S off of Ebay lol, so ill find out next week. The touchscreen on my Hero is starting to cut out and I still wanna save my upgrade
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
I'm pretty sure they'll tack on the $10 fee if you activate the NS 4G. I'm most likely going the same route because my hero is having touchscreen issues as well, and service issues :(

My family's heros (same radio/prl/etc) can be right next to mine - they all get about the same signal, while mine is almost 15-20dB worse :/

Edit:

Well, I'm buying a nexus S for about $100 from a friend, I'll be keeping it until sprint puts out new phones (late Q2 Im guessing) which is when I'll use my actual upgrade. Then sell it on eBay to get my money back..and then some (hopefully) for my next phone >:} mwahaha

I'll know whether the $10 premium data fee gets added on by the end of next week :D
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
Got the phone today, and YES when you go through the online ESN swap you will need to update your plan to include the $10 premium data fee. The plan options available will be on the 3rd screen of the sprint.com/activate page
[Hero CDMA General] rubyknight:
Yeah, I ended up just calling the sprint agent and she tacked on the $10 to my phone specifically since i'm on a family plan and then helped me swap it over. It was easy as pie really. And its my second time swapping without renewing my contact. And good lord is this thing fast! I played with my dads Evo 4G but this Nexus kicks its a** all over the place
[Hero CDMA General] sleepyEDB:
Sorry to dig up a not-too-recent thread, but I thought of a couple more questions on this topic...

We now know that Sprint will tack on the $10 premium data fee when doing an ESN swap, but did anyone here get charged an activation fee in addition?

How are you verifying that the used NS4G you're buying has a clean ESN before doing the swap? Is Sprint willing to do this, or do you have to know someone on the inside?

Thanks,

[HTC Sensation] haririan:
My gps is not working scense i update my rom to 4.0 insertcoin

Any body khow what happened?
[HTC Sensation] CODE-ANALYST:
Noone knows, try to reflash an early version of InsertCoin, and check if it still does not work, if it just works, stay with that version if you cant miss it.

If GPS still does not work, try flashing an RUU to check if it works then.

If it works, you can go further flashing again.

If it does not work by then, turn it in for repair :)

have fun

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wonsanim:
I find that my device have some brightness change in the display,many times i'm reading and see the screen do some dimming the screen lower down the brightness and go back after like 30 seconds to the normal bright,I have enable the Auto screen power but i try desable and the result are the same.some help please:(:(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bryce2010:
Probably nothing you can do and it will just never work properly. Seems like the Note has the same strange auto brightness behaviour as the Nexus One - it doesnt work right. Must be some problem with Android OS? I just had to accept the crappy touch screen problems with the N1 and you'll have to just accept that your brightness is screwed up.

Why even include these features if it doesnt work right? Or why not just be honest and tell consumers that the feature has glitches? Why not steal some programming from Apple - never had an issue with iPhone auto brightness.

I still will probably get this phone - but I think it's ridiculous that a $700+ device has these auto brightness/screen issues reported here.:eek:

I tried to flash I9000 with cynogenmod with custom kernal speedmod by using update.zip in sdcard.after flashing phone is turning on in CWR mode even when i connected charger it is coming to recovery mode of CWR.

can my battery will charge normally?

can i flash my phone with new firmware like XXJVT as i can able get download mode.

thanks in advance...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cabessius:
I don´t really know what you did, anyway the best thing you can do now is to flash stock JVT with ODIN, reboot, flash semaphore or CF-root kernel to have CWM recovery, and then decide what rom to flash (CM, MIUI or Samsung-based). And NEVER mix Samsung kernels with CM roms.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00338:
as for color controll you could try to download the voodoo app from the market, if your kernel support it you can control screen colors(see a bit down the menu of the app)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] floateruk:
Hi everyone,

I wondered if anyone could should some light on google+ for me?

I've had for the GN for a little over a day nowand for whatever reason I thought I'd check my data usage. Google+ has somehow managed to use 296mb even though I don't use google plus at all.

I've figured out that the camera does an auto upload, so I have disabled that, but is there anything else that I can turn off to help keep this data usage down to a minimum because 250mb per day is pretty heavy...

Any help would be hugely appreciated as I'm completely new to android.

Thanks all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Roni1979:
Probably you have activated the automatic picture upload to Google+? This could be managed within the app. Under settings you could manage that this upload will only be done by WIFI or you could completly stop this upload!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
I think the only killer is instant upload of pictures and videos. Did you even take 200+Mb of pictures? Everything else is pretty harmless apart from synching contacts and that wouldnt take up much. Just set your uploads to only go over a wifi connection and it should be fine.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] floateruk:
Thanks for the replies guys

I think i took a total of six pictures just messing with the camera. I think ill stay off the camera for a day and see if the data calms down.

Ive turned auto upload off so hopefully itll sort itself out anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
It was probably just initial contact/data sync and then picture instant upload. If you turn off instant upload in the settings you'll be fine.

You can also just turn off background data for G+ in the data use settings if you're not going to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zarch1972:
I've had Google+ issues too today.

I haven't got instant upload ticked, but now that i'm home and on wifi, google+ is say here rattling away at 4% CPU and appears to be constantly downloading something, but god knows what as I've been home 4 hours and its not stopped.

"System Panel" app shows my Network on the phone constantly downloading upto 1mb/sec. I confirm this is Google+ by force stopping the app and the network usage and CPU drops to zero.

I do have a rather large Picasa collection, but as these are already with Google, i'm not sure why it would do anything with those....

I've rebooted the phone since the force stop and all is quiet, no downloading.

Opened Google+ again.... a little download when I went into photos, but all quiet.

Opened Gallery, its shows all my albums, but no extra traffic or CPU.

I wonder if Google+ just got its knickers in a twist somehow? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chistery:
It'll be syncing them to your gallery then. They've probably all appeared in there now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bagl0312:
Data usage of google plus

I have the same problem with my Galaxy Nexus.

I found that a backup of all my pictures in picasa is automatically kept under:

/data/media/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache

which appears as "USB storage data" in Google+ App info.

This backup starts even if the "Make available offline" option in the Gallery is not selected :( and since I have many pictures in Picasa, the total amount of storage used is almost 2GB !

In order to avoid this undesired synchronization of google+, I had to disable the "Sync Google Photos" under my "Sync Settings".

I also removed by hand the above directory to recover the (precious) space in my phone.

Unfortunately this is causing the side effect that the instant upload is not anymore available for photos and videos.

It would be highly desirable that an option is introduced to disable this google+ synchronization.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doedskvad:
Hello!

Some time ago I switched ROM from stock to Cyanogenmod 7. It worked perfect, but wanted to try MIUI as well. When I did that, and installed the kernel that said was needed for the ROM, something went wrong during the install of MIUI. It said there was a problem with directories on my SD-card if I recall correct. I tried everything to make it work, but it didn't. It didn't even work to install the stock kernel and install Cyanogenmod 7 again - same errors.

Nothing worked, so I found the stock ROM, kernel and everything to get my phone to work again. I installed it with either Odin, and it worked.

The problem is still there though, I can't root or install ROMs on my phone, and I can't for the world understand what the problem might be. I have formatted the SD card several times and tried clean installs, but I still get the errors.

Anyone know what I can do to get it to work?

Thanks,

And you have tried to install root via CF - Root and Odin ? Without RE Partition and without a PIT file etc ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doedskvad:
Yes! Download mode works. I will try that! If it's not too much to ask, do you have any tips for rooted kernels that will work with Cyanogenmod 7?

I don't really remember how I got the phone rooted, but if I recall, I installed a kernel which had CWM in it, and installed Cyanogenmod 7 from there. I have not done a re-partition; no pit file has been used.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
All of the CM7 kernels are rooted, including stock. If you're referring to a kernel for stock firmware in order to get CM7 on your device, then—off the top of my head—I don't really know any. I've been on CM too long. But I'm guessing most if not all of the custom kernels are rooted, as that just makes sense.

If you flash stock, simply flash a kernel that includes root and CWM. From there, you're good to go. You can do anything and everything you want. :)

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hangman_:
So, I am running on my NC, the 7.1.0-RC1-encore OS (2.3.4) from an SD card (I haven't looked to see if there's a newer version available. If so, please comment and possibly post a link).

A friend of mine bought a NC for her daughters birthday present and wants to put android on an SD card (a setup like mine). She doesn't want to take off, or interrupt in any way, the stock OS.

I don't have a second NC to test this on, so I am asking the question here.

If I put the new SD card in my NC to get the GAPPS setup and everything ready for her, will the SD card then work on her NC? Or will it be tied to my NC seeing as I setup the Android OS on my NC?

I hope this question makes sense.

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?

I had the same issue. Until I did the same.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] droideveloper:
...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.

Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way?
