I am sure Sprint crunched their numbers on customers and hired several high paid consultants to tell them to drop customers but that kind of attitude towards customers does not spell well for any company - well maybe if you were Ford back in the day, manufacturing the "T" :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
Ok I see what you're saying now.

As far as the power issue - it stems from the fact that WiMax uses OFDMA (so does LTE as far as I've read) for it's downstream operations. The power issue comes into play because WiMax uses OFDMA for uplinks also - LTE uses SCFDMA.

OFDMA has a higher average power ratio and also requires more voltage for the antenna to function properly. Thus it's peak to average power ratio remains higher regardless of how it's being used. SCFDMA uses much less power, sometimes in the range of 60% less, at least as far as voltage goes. It's peak to average power ratio is much less also. There is also much more noise in a WiMax transmission due to the peaks on the waves being out-of-bounds quite often. That requires more transmissions because of the failed packets, stronger transmitters to maintain a linear wave, so on and so on. By that point I'm out of my league on understanding how this stuff works. All I know is WiMax can have upwards of 17dB peaks vs. the 3-6dB peaks of LTE (SCFDMA).

I could be a bit off there since that's a bit out of my area but I'll post some links if you want to read about this stuff. Have fun and more power to you if you actually make it all the way through :cool:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Hello everyone, I have never rooted nor flash a rom on the SGSII T989 before and I wanted to make sure that I do it right the first time. I am getting conflicting information online so I wanted to double check with the steps I have to make sure they are right.

I plan on flashing "[ROM] |12|17|11|BeastMOD II v4.2 |APM-CRT| Synergy 0.10|". So if people can go through this list and make sure I have the step right that would be awesome. Thank you in advance.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] danielblakes:
you are correct. however, the backing up apps is not really necessary since you aren't downloading/installing any apps in the first place. instead of making a titanium backup, make a CWR Nandroid backup.

(boot into CWR > backup and restore > backup).

---------- Post added at 02:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

Updated How-To

I'm assuming you're on Windows.

Preparing the device:

1. Download

Kies

Odin

CWM

Superuser

BeastRom

Install Kies. Place Odin on Desktop. Place other files (SU apk and zip, CWM, and BeastROM) on Desktop.

2. Connect device to PC.

3. Put device in to Mass Storage Mode.

4. Copy Superuser+SU.zip file & BeastROM.zip in to the SD Card of the device.

5. Pull battery/Launch Device in to "Download Mode".

(Press and hold volume up & down keys, insert USB cord)

6. Once PC has recognized the device, launch Odin.

7. Select PDA button > browse/select "CWRecovery.tar".

8. Verify that Odin has the "0: [COM]" yellow.

9. Press Start.

You now have Clockwork Mod Recovery. This will allow us to flash non-approved files to the phone.

Rooting

1. Pull battery

2. Press and hold Volume up & down, then press and release the power button for 2 seconds. Continue to hold volume buttons to enter CWR.

3. Select Install zip from SD card.

4. Select choose zip from SD card (you may have to select "choose zip from external sd card")

5. Select SU from list.

6. Select Yes.

7. Select Reboot System Now.

Congrats!!! Device in now rooted!!!!

Backup

1. Boot back into CWR (see above).

2. Backup and Restore

3. Backup

You now have a backup of the stock (pre-installed), rooted ROM in case anything goes wrong.

Install ROM

1. Reboot in to CWR

2. Wipe data/factory reset.

3. Wipe cache.

4. Select Install zip from SD card > choose zip from SD card (or external SD card)> BeastMOD.zip

5. Wipe Dalvik Cache.

6. Fix Permissions.

7. Reboot device (could take up to 10 minutes the first time).

Hopefully everything works! :)

Housekeeping

now's the time to make a few backups!

1. an application backup (for switching to other ROM's or factory resetting): launch titanium backup > batch > backup all apps and user data

2. a full image of your phone (for restoring if you break something): CWM > backup and restore > backup.

Now you can flash updates to your hearts content because you have a backup that you KNOW works to fall back on.

Troubleshooting:

if the market will not let you download applications, boot back into CWM (you'll be doing this a lot - get used to it) and select wipe cache.

if anything else goes wrong, don't hesitate to ask! this is a great community! :)

welcome aboard!

Hi,

I have installed the Overcome Rom v4.0 on my Galaxy Tab. Now I need to wipe it with a hard reset.

I choose factory reset within the settings menu. It brings up the 3e recovery menu. I choose "wipe data / factory reset" but when the reboot finishes, nothing has changed! All my data is still on the machine.

I am using the "home" button as the "Enter" button. This is the only item I found to fulfill this function.

Is this correct? What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

No clue yet what's going on... (Dec 2011)

Just try this:

- start the log to make the error messages flow visible;

- connect the phone with USB cable to your PC;

- move the USB connection to storage mode

- check again the log - these errors will not be presented anymore in the log flow.

It seems like this is an issue that's be going on in the past 3 years, but has anyone else's google talk not stay signed in when you're not actively using it?

With my Razr previously, google talk would always be on, and it would keep up to date in real time with conversations even done on my computer.

Now the conversation is only updated to the last time I was actively using it, and everytime I go into the App, it shows everyone grey and then green (aka relogs in)

I use google talk as my primary form of communication and not having conversations update from my computer in real time causes a lot of issues.

As if the poorly engineered radio and antenna weren't enough, my Nexus has crashed and rebooted multiple times during navigation. By the time it rebooted and finally grabbed a weak 3G signal, I had already missed my turns.

Fvck you Samsung. Stick with making toasters. Leave the engineering to Motorola and HTC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ianwood:
OK. First, you should relax a bit. It's not that a big of a deal. It's a first gen ICS device so you shouldn't be too surprised by teething pains. I just used Google Nav to drive cross-country and let me tell you, it worked pretty darn well. It did freeze up solid once which required not only a battery pull but a "time out" before I could get the device to reboot. All was good after 5 minutes. Other times, I had to use the task manager to kill previous instances to get it to work. Not bad for 3,000 miles of travel. Didn't miss a turn. Had good signal. Only a little GPS drift a couple of times which makes me wonder if the GN GPS supports WAAS. Doubt it. Either way, it is miles better than my Galaxy S which frankly, isn't saying much, but still it was miles better.

On my trip, Google maps pulled in 1.10Gb of images and I got three warning messages from AT&T. One told me I should use WiFi because I was close to being in the top 5%. Another told me I shouldn't be tethering (which I wasn't... this week). And finally, I got a message from AT&T that said they were suckers!!! Going down to AT&T today to rough them up a bit.

I successfully rooted my phone a few days ago using the Revolutionary method and flashed ClockworkMod Recovery without a problem. Then I flashed CyanogenMod 7.1.0 again without a problem. I noticed my gps has been having an issue detecting my location so I figured I should flash the nandroid for my stock rooted android 2.3.3 rom and see if the issue still exists. My main problem is that I can't boot into recovery. Apparently I have the latest version of Clockwork. I try to boot into recovery using different methods and I keep ending up at the white screen that says 'Revolutionary' in pink at the top with the 3 skateboarding androids at the bottom. I try to get to recovery from that screen also still with no success. It just reboots into that screen. I was thinking I may have to use the ruu to unroot my Evo (I rather find an alternative solution). How can I regain my ability to boot into recovery? Any help would be much appreciated...

Turn off your phone,then when turning it on hold the volume rocker in the down position,you will then boot into hboot settings,hboot will automatically check for the update file(PC36IMG)after its done,scroll to recovery and enter that way,if you still cant get into recovery,you will need to download and reinstall the latest revolutionary root tool,i recommend using "TeamWin Recovery Project" i've never had a problem with it.
