[LG Thrill 4G] Araltd:
So, I'm using a P925 thrill AT&T branded which is UNLOCKED on T-mobile USA. But only getting 2G edge data speeds, and I'm being told no matter what I do, or what baseband I flash, I will never get anything other than edge on this device. My question is, is there a comparable device that DOES offer 3g/4g T-mobile USA compatibility?

I'm trying to migrate from unlocked iPhone's (again, using on T-mobile USA) to Android - simply because I'm bored of iPhone's... Have had them all except the 4S - but have a iPhone 4 so its pretty much the same thing. While I know the 3D of the Thrill is a little gimmicky, I think its one of the coolest "gimmicks" to hit in a long time, and because I only recently got a 3D TV -- well, recording 3D video's and watching them at home is pretty effin cool.

So, am I stuck with a T-mobile branded Galaxy device if I want 4G or 3G on T-mobile USA?

Any advice would be helpful, since I'm pretty much an Android Noob! THANKS!
[LG Thrill 4G] Demonface:
If I remember correctly the optimus 3d might work with t-mobile usa. But you might have to double check just to make sure .
[LG Thrill 4G] kleeman7:
This is off topic, but how did you unlock your phone?
[LG Thrill 4G] bedwa:
You should be able to use the 2100 UMTS band with T-Mobile, but I believe you need both the 1700 and 2100 bands for full 3G. If so, you need a baseband for either T-Mobile, Wind or another Canadian Carrier with T-Mo's 3G bands. The nice thing about this phone is it's flexibility of use with other networks by baseband flash. (Now we need other leaked GB basebands.... Ugh.)
[LG Thrill 4G] NardVa:
If you want a non branded Android phone that works on Tmobile 3G/4G bands look at the Incredible S, Sensation (International Version), Sensation XE, Nexus Galaxy, the TELUS version of the Galaxy S II and the Nexus S.
[LG Thrill 4G] bedwa:
Yes, but you DO have to admit that there are few devices this flexible......

[LG Thrill 4G] Araltd:
So are there any basebands available that I can flash to my p925 to get t-mobile usa 3g/4g speed?
[LG Thrill 4G] Araltd:
Q: how did I unlock my p925?

I took it to a store, and they unlocked it for me.
[LG Thrill 4G] Araltd:
So am I understanding this correctly? I can flash a new baseband to get t-mobile usa 3g or 4g ?
[LG Thrill 4G] kleeman7:
Should be able to, give it a try you have nothing try loose.
[LG Thrill 4G] Demonface:
If I try to use a baseband for T-Mobile USA on my Thrill would that screw up my phone? If there is any posted can someone post the link here ? I tried to look for it and couldnt find it.
[LG Thrill 4G] keith134:

I was using my friends galaxy tab 7.0 plus and he was saying how the exynos 1.2 ghz dual core is better than the nvidia tegra 2 dual core. Is this true?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
1GHz < 1.2 GHz

So yeah it is better. It has .2GHz over the tegra2 by default. I also noticed that my wife's SGS2 is a lot smoother and faster than my Atrix OC'd to 1.2

the exynos 1.2 ghz dual core is not better jsut because it is .2ghz faster look at the new Galaxy Nexus which is 1.2ghz OMAP that is fastter then the SGS2 1.5ghz. its fastter because of the type of CPU it is.

Im pretty sure the Blackberry data plan is independent of every other data plan. I believe the blackberry service itself is provided by RIM in conjunction with your ISP (your ISP provides the pipes to the Blackberry servers, thats why sites often think you are in canada)

This was at least true when i was using a BB in Australia, and i cant imagine its different anywhere else.

So when she got her BB, she probably got put on a BB data plan, and you need to get T-mobile know you need a normal Data plan.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmiller:
I have never been on a BB plan, it's a regular plan that used to work.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ~Rich~:
Has anyone noticed that there a new games popping up in the Tegra Zone that state they are built specifically for Tegra 3 devices?

Are we going to get left behind on the newest games because we have the Tegra 2?

Anyone have thoughts on this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Spidey01:
Considering the market for !iPad and that Tegera 3 isn't going to power that big a precentage of remaining Android devices in general, at worst get the "Normal" version instead of T3HD or w/e bull they are calling it now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dude2k5:
It probably says so the TF Prime can utilize it. Im guessing most games should be playable on both, but when it detects quad core, it will increase all the settings. But, im not sure. I know a few games are going to do this, I think Shadowgun.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] melcali:
yea seems that way. but would def be stupid for devs to not make games backward compatible for at least tegra 2 devices.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lehoule:
It will. Look at shadowgun and riptide gp
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Spidey01:
It would be stupid for devs not to make games backward compatible with `high definition` systems, as so many people typically seem to name their app.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] justPorter:
games will probably be exclusive for tegra 3 for a month or so then they will release another version unless the game cannot run on slower hardware.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] player911:
Games should have settings like PC games do. 1 version with graphical sliders. Why isn't this happening in all games?

There simply aren't enough Tegra 3 (or Tegra 2) devices to develop specifically for. Backwards compatibility would be wise. No game should be Tegra 3 only yet aside from a few tech demos.

Plus it would be a way to sell Tegra 3 devices too. Give me a new game with Tegra 3 support and let me enable all the goodies Tegra 3 supports and see how the game runs. This is why I used to purchase video cards all the time growing up. Run a new game at full glory because it looked pretty but ran at 19fps... whoops, gotta go get a new $500 video card to play a $49 game better.

If they separate the versions then non-Tegra users and Tegra 2 users never know what they are missing.

I also want an upgradable GPU IN MY PHONE!!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ~Rich~:
I agree. They should be all backward compatible. I also like the idea of being able to scale back the graphics to run on older devices and to tempt us to upgrade.

I want an upgradable gpu for my transformer! lol Don't think any of that is ever going to happen.

I saw that in the demo of Glow Ball that is in the Tegra Zone it says it was meant for Tegra 3 and only Tegra 3 processors were capable of handling the intense graphics. It even goes as far to show you want it looks like without the Tegra 3 (on non Tegra processor I believe) graphics which pretty much makes the game not worth it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] farr3ll:
Blowfish Studios are making a Tegra 2 then Tegra 3 version of Siegecraft THD. The Tegra 3 version will be a pushed update to the previous version, so I'm told.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Spidey01:
Somehow I remember reading somewhere that file picker = bad according to some important Android guy at Google. Which is probably while you get nothing out of their stuff but you get OI File Manager out of CyangonMod. I wouldn't be surprised if someone felt the same way about game settings, especially considering that people probably change phones about as fast as AAA+ games have short shelf lives (ala COD sh!t).

Unless you want to make several sales per device, THD and the rest is all bull.

Buying FooGame and installing it on e.g. an Optimus One should give you a modest ARMv6 friendly APK, lower end build with graphics tuned for common devices of it's era. Installing it on a TFP should give you a Tegera 3 optimised version of the APK. Got a Galaxy Nexus? Different APK than the Transformers, plus another "Generic" APK that is OK on any phone powerful enough to run it. If memory serves we either have this ability in the market or are getting it soon(tm).

That takes care of your old handset, your super tablet, and your new handset. Even better is the licensing option, uninstall from the Optimus One and install on the Galaxy Nexus or whatever you want out of the markets settings. Just like buying a new PC you can transfer the game over, but just like a console: it also would mean no matter what they play off, your less techy relatives that don't know crud about tech don't even have to figure out game settings. Ain't that awesome?

But oh wait, if we have to do that much work anyway for maximum market penetration, why not release FooGame, FooGame HD, FooGame T2HD, and FooGame T3HD? That way we have the option for charging customers by the processor type and bloat our stats to look good to share holders? --> follow the money.

If I'm wrong about the last three paragraphs someone correct me, other wise I think it's all bull. Some companies are really nice about it if you buy one version but in the end, there's no reason for it, except to try and make more $$$ if wanted.

If I'm probably right and it is mostly bull, how about hitting the thanks button to let me know I'm not an idiot? :-P

Anyone try this?
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
themeing is done by deodexing framework...

deodexing system allows for it to be faster (despite the fact that odex = Optimized Dalvik EXectuable)
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Not to go all super nerd on you but odexing is separating dalvik code to prevent multiple dalvik-code location. Older phones benefited from odexing because it used less memory(no cache-build). A deodexed rom must make dalvik cache from dalvik code and verify dalvik code in the apk with the dalvik cache every boot. Odexing precaches the dalvik code outside the apk in system for the device instead of in cache/data and in the apk. We have a ton of space and put dalvik cache on data instead of cache(preferred when nand and data were separate) now we use inand which doesn't matter where. You can speed up boot by disabling the verify and make the system look at dalvik cache as odex. By doing this

dalvik.vm.verify-bytecode=false

dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=v

That will give you the speed of odex but for all apks.
[HTC EVO 3D] takmsdsm:
I have had this issue since custom roms have come to the evo 3D, and it has happened on my original and replacement Evo3D.

When I go to turn down my phone all the way, it doesnt work. It beeps throughout the whole range of volume from max to off to vibrate. Also, the volume indicator will not go below the first section. The only way I can truly put my phone on vibrate or silent is to go into settings and sound and set it to it manually. Here are some screen shots.

Lowest volume

Silent

Vibrate

Anyone else experiencing this, or know whats causing this? I have tried to a search, but didnt come up with anything. Its annoying and definitely not great when I go to silence my phone and it doesnt actually happen. Is it a 2.3.4 issue? As most custom roms are 2.3.4 variants, I thought this might be the case, and I have tried a number of roms over the last few months.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spoiltz:
There were days, when our MINI had a lot of development support. There were so many developers, working on our MINIs ROMS. But, these days what i see is that, we have got only few developers, working with devotion on our MINI.

Earlier we had the option of so many ROMS, in the development forum, But now, all we see is MINICM7, by our kind developer, or Gingerdx.I am not saying that, these are not good enough.But, what i am trying to say here is, wouldn't it be nice, if we had options of different ROMS, by different developers, as we used to have, 6 months ago????

Is support for our MINIS really dying????
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Felimenta97:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spoiltz:
True, but still love this credit card sized phone.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] phoneyericsson:
Yes, I've been thinking the same.

1. This is happening in all the smartphone world, unfortunately. I seen this happen to many other popular phones when I first bought this one, I knew this would happen.

2. Only the manufacturers and networks benefit, because we upgrade faster. People are upgrading as quick as once a year. Our phone is almost 1 and a half years old.

3. SE made a big mistake with it's 2010 Xperias - they didn't prepare the hardware for the future. The new 2011 Mini has waaaaaaaaaay better specs. which will prepare it for the future, ICS, Jellybean etc.

4. The devs are likely to like new phones even more than us 'modders' and might move on quicker.

+1 One good thing I've noticed is that some phones have great support (on here) years later. We're getting our first ICS port thanks to Stelios. I think that's as good as it gets; when Jellybean comes out in 6 months, our phone will be 2 years old, and that's reasonable time for us to upgrade, I think.

+ Know that our 2010 phones are officially supported by Cyanogen. As long as we're lucky to have a kind dev put that in here, we're good to go. I could be mistaken, but we can download a Cyanogen port from their forum and use it straight away, no? I have a vague memory of having done that....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] spoiltz:
True, Sir!

Our phones is almost 2 years old. And, our developers have been very kind, to support the phone till now.

But, i still love the cute look of our MINI.
