My contact was signed on October 2010. I had to swallow €20/month for voice calls which I didn't want at all (I seldom call with my phone) in order to be able to get a €10/month plan which allows me 100 MB/month and then caps me to 64 kbps. Adding the Value Added Tax I got a €36($60)/month plan which I only make use of for a couple days before the data cap kicks in. And that was in order to get a Galaxy S (an undoubtedly hot phone at that time)... Paying €100/$140 up-front still. All in all, it's an operation where I pay €750/$1100 for the phone + the plan.

While it was certainly a terrible move financially, it was the only way I could get a data plan. Cheaper Android phones came without data plans at all.

Fourteen months later, new high-end plans (€50/$80 and forward) give you a mind boggling 1 GB before capping you. SMS are limited too, save for one carrier (Telefonica/O2) who just introduced unlimited SMS plans for their new customers (existing ones can bugger themselves with a stick for all Telefonica cares about)... Just when everyone and their mother uses Whatsapp et al.

Cheaper plans have lower MB caps, of course. When I read Americans here moaning that they're getting caps on their $40 5GB plans I can't stop laughing. You people have evil carriers, but Spain has it definitely worse.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
My mother is in the same position as you. She wants a Droid Razr for Christmas which I am buying her, but she doesn't really want the voice minutes, she NEVER calls anyone on her cell. The problem is they will only sell data only plans on tablet devices. Theoretically she could buy an unlocked one but then she has to use t-mobile or AT&T who won't give her 4G data speed because the phone is not on their network. Ohh and both of them suck donkey balls in terms of service and coverage.

So in the end her plan for 450 min, 500 SMS/MMS, and 2gb data is around $75 per month (also includes unlimited sms and voice between verizon phones which is what 85% of the people she knows has) on the most reliable network around. The phone out of pocket is $229 for a phone that unlocked right now is $750 retail.

So yeah we ***** about verizon because they lock down phones and dump bloatware on them, but in reality their coverage is better than anyone, and they prices we pay are technically pretty low. Two of the most important things in its primary function... being a phone.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
I've come ot the conclusion that it's best to sign contracts for lower-end smartphones. They're discounted quite fancily too, the penalties are not as steep as if you want to abandon ship from a powerhorse (note that I'm paying for a phone that I don't use anymore :D) and if you choose wisely, the community will more than make up for the shortcomings of the phone.

P.S: That you have to factor coverage as an important thing to choose carriers should say something to you. It's a non-issue in most developed countries.

EA finally released monopoly on the market! only problem is it seems to crash/hang for me... anyone else having the same problem?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JHaste:
Strange... The game would not run on MIUI or CM7 (faux, trinity, or stock kernels) but it would run fine on bionix 2 (2.3.3) with the stock kernel that the rom uses...

oh well, i guess i will be rocking this rom for awhile because this game will have me hooked for awhile
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
Yeah, I've noticed the EA Games I've tried don't play nice with MIUI/CM7 builds, but it works fine with stock based ROMs. Sim City and Need For Speed Shift crash and hang all the time for me on CM7, but work fine on Weapon.

Extended battery for me. I have LTE turned off on the rezound and get great battery life. LTE is awesome but it doesn't need to be on ALL day.

The extended battery should do the trick. Plus videos show it doesn't even add that much thickness because of the design. Plus its gotta be thinner then the rezound I'm using.

Does anyone have the correct APN settings for xT4Z1N4TRx's ICS Rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
I believe that "the correct apn settings" do not exist for any kind of rom. The apn settings depend on which carrier you're on.

Usually a quick google search for apn settings + your carrier should lead you to what you're looking for.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kierren:
I'm assuming you're on T-Mobile like I am. I searched the dev thread and multiple people are reporting that MMS just hangs on "Sending...". No one has found T-Mobile APN settings (myself included) that work with the most current build. People were reporting that earlier builds had working MMS, so I think it might be a rom issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WillFarrell_:
Thanks guys...yea, I just downloaded the latest update which is working great btw. I just recently saw people saying that mms were working about 2 downgrades ago. I flashed that one and the mms were working. Copied over those exact apns to the latest rom and got nothing. So like u said, might just be rom. Thanks anyways

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philled:

Titanium will backup system apps as well as ones you've installed yourself. You don't have to worry about it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philled:
Oh, cool, thanks I didn't know that! I guess I need to get on and root the thing then!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RelliKDoG:
Some rom will be no-wiped option. So, you can flash the rom and everything will be there.

But for me, clean install might be better.

Good luck on choosing rom :)
[HTC Desire S] jwseah:
Hi everyone,

I've finally rooted my phone and installed Endymion's awesome rom. It's been working great so far, except that it doesn't display chinese characters (although it has chinese IME, in which the characters only show up as boxes)

Is there any way to install the font manually? Tried searching the forums with no luck.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Desire S] Yobby:
I have no experience with Chinese characters, but I'm guessing some app like Font Installer (sorry, can't post links yet) should allow you to find a font that includes them.
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
The best way is

1) Download any Chinese Unicode font

2) download Es file explore form market

3) put font to your sd card

4) open Es file explorer, goto setting and root options,

5) check mount system rw

6) rename font as DroidSansFallback.ttf, and copy

7) now go to system, fonts folder, and paste.

It will ask to replace, press yes. Reboot and enjoy

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nutsngum:
I'm assuming it should work with any media - youtube etc.?

Just testing it when other applications and it doesn't seem to work. It's strange because when I do the flip to mute "tutorial" in the settings it works fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] daystrom:
I think it works with just the ringer on incoming calls. I just tested it by calling myself and the ringer indeed does mute when flipped over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nutsngum:
But if it's flipped and you receive a call - it still rings. I guess it just doesn't work the way I thought it did...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] daystrom:
Same for me. I guess if you pick up the phone to see who it is, you can flip it over to silence the call.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
I think mine does the same.. seems to work on anything but calls and notifications. Should be the opposite
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cue_32:
Last time I checked it worked fine for me. I found out this morning that this also works on Stock Video player... Pauses the movie when you flip it over
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] highlanderx:
For me ... flip to mute works only as an "action". you have to do the action for it to work...

you have to "flip it". not just be upside down.

The whole point for me was to be ringer off when upside down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nuclearrage:
thats why i love these forums , learn something new everyday!!!! didn't even know i could flip to mute until now
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
Hi

I am here visiting for about 3 months (maybe a bit more)

I have the intentional S II

Which plan will be best for me (want to enjoy at least 3G)?

I see that T-Mobile has a decent pre-paid plan (100MB in 4G speeds is enough) - unlimited for 50 a month.

But any help will be appreciated !!

Thank you all !!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disfected:
International version doesn't support T-Mobile bands, you'll only have EDGE data. AT&T is the only provider that will support the international version for 3g/4g speeds.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
That's great to know!!! Those ATT are way more expensive though (for some reason).

Thank you!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disfected:
They are the same price for prepaid, at&t gophone plan should work on the international version, but the speeds are capped at 500kb-1mb.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benyben123:
But isn't this plan for people who want a phone as well? do i not have to get the phone (is this question retarded)??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disfected:
Gophone = prepaid cheapo phone, you do get a phone I believe but it's an inexpensive toss away. There is a thread somewhere here that talks about it, with people buying one from walmart and just removing the simcard.
[HTC Sensation] _DavidWebb:
Rooted my Sensation 4G with this tutorial - http://www.androidunite.com/2011/10/07/how-to-gain-s-off-and-root-the-sensation-4g/#comment-3770

Used teamwin recovery. Installed cm7, now my GPS doesn't work. Google and forum search is all over the place on this. Need some help please.

Also, keep getting a FC error for Google apps framework or something.

Tried wipe cache, wipe Delvik Cache, and wiped google contacts app and framwork app. still getting it. Could use some help with that also.

Lastly, if I get these working or not, I would like to try a diff ROM, like miui...do I have to wipe everytime i flash a new rom, and restore data apps etc. or can I just boot to recovery from CM7, and then flash a new ROM?
[HTC Sensation] big_smurf:
I don't know much about cm7 so its probably best to check the cm7 bible in the dev forum. In the past i have had little niggling problems with a newly flashed rom, internal storage maxed out or mms wouldn't send, and usually reflashing the rom fixes it. Not always but most of the time.

Before flashing any new rom it is always best to wipe before flashing a new one. Backup your apps with something like titanium and restore then once your new rom has had time to settle. If you don't wipe, settings from the old rom could interfere with the new one. Whatever you use to backup your apps, don't restore the backup data. This could also interfere with your new rom.

Hope this helps a little.

Hello,

After I tried to upgrade to gingerbread 2.3.4 on my G2x, the process just stopped at the upgrade point, at 4%. It said I should remove the battery and put it again. After several times trying to make it work, I thought that the drivers were the problem (It said that it couldn't connect with the cellphone), but it wasn't that. Because the screen is still on "S/W Upgrade", I just removed the battery, until I find a solution, but I think that my case wasn't posted. I brought it from Wind Mobile Canada, but I flashed it to GB T-Mobile. I want to get it back to normal, even if I get back to Froyo.

Please help me to solve my problem.

Thanks in advance.

There are 2 things as to why Linux doesn't have as many viruses as Windows (arguable):

1. It's open source (which means it'll make a patch for security holes faster than I can take a shower)

2. A small number of users (malware devs will feel unnecessary to target a system with a small number of users)

Now, Android is open source, and it has that same layer of protection as Linux. But Android is huge. It became bigger than Linux in two years than Linux ever did in twenty years. It's a BIG target for malware.

I'm not saying it's 100% absolutely necessary for you to install an antivirus app, but it's better to be safe than sorry. :)
