what's the advantage and disadvantage in using KB5 modem?

does KB5 modem increase 3G speeds in my simple mobile?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dseldown:
I too have let my contract expire with T-Mobile and went on with Simple Mobile, However I haven't seen any real difference between the two, meaning that T-Mobile was always slow for me and no matter what modems or configurations I tried, I never got the speed that others here are saying we should be getting.

Simple Mobile is using the same bandwidth as T-Mobile, because it is T-Mobile, so unless there was throttling or bandwidth restrictions that T-Mobile is implementing, based on the royalties or amount they pay T-mobile!!

Technically It should be the same as what the T-Mobile customers are getting, and In my case, I'm still getting the same ole slow assed data, that I had before when I was paying alot more to T-Mobile, I've been looking for a Holly Grail of tweaks, that might get my phone into the data performance I know Its capable of, but as of this moment, and after all this time, its still no better than Dial up, the only difference is I'm paying alot less than I was with TM.

Would love to find tweaks or configurations for my T959, that opens it up to some serious speed. And No I never DL anything enough month to month wise, to have them impose a CAP. But I'm so used to lag and poor performance, and the fact, that I wont ever go back to a CDMA provider again, So I'm stuck, unless I switch providers, like ATT which is serious $$, otherwise It would mean, putting my Vibrant in mothballs, And I love this phone, It takes the burden of running a laptop I used to need, to do the very same things I now accomplish with this phone, and simplifying my life, but with slow speed= Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!

Im also really interested to know!

Ok first thing first.

Both Tmobile and Simple Mobile does not provide unlimited 3g,

Tmobile (prepaid service that i use for 50 a month, a plan of relevance to the OP), provides 200mb of 3g service,

in this case, i would get 3mb speed, yet after the 200mb, they limit your service to 100 kbp range,

I have never used simple moblie before but i believe they use the same tower and provide more data, 2gig, and also cheaper,

so can someone tell me what varied data speed one would get for simple?

within 2 gig and after the capped data speed, thanx
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Defdealr:
I personally have been with simple for about a yr on both 4g and 3g speeds capped and uncapped

usually after you tether usb or wifi they will throttle you like almost that week and wont even know unless u call to be like wth

4g speeds are about the same as t-mobile

3g speeds are about 0.12Mbps even after changing from JK6 testing with different build props KA7 with different build props and even KB5 with different build props

For the most part i have been on these roms

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Defdealr:
No need to unlock because its under T-Mobile go to your simple mobile apn change proxy to

216.155.165.50 for data and save

Open T-Mobile apn and match every field like all the fields in your simple mobile apn except these changes

Simple MMS - apn

simple - name

To those simple mobile users with $ 40 monthly plan:

Will your 3G speed (128 kbs) will be lowered after you reach 2 GB ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkinglow:
I have had both T-Mobile and Simple Mobile. I have a MyTouch 3GS and Vibrant. When on T-Mobile I usually was able to get ~1500 kbs however was paying $100/month for unlimited everything with a 5GB data throttle. After switching to Simple Mobile I am capped at ~120 kbs on either phone. My 3GS is running the latest CM7 nightly and my Vibrant is running ICS Passion 10.6. I have read on other forums that some users have complained to Simple Mobile and the support tech "reset" their internet and after, they received the download speeds closer to T-Mobile. I have contacted support twice and have yet to get that lucky. I mostly use WiFi therefore am happy with the $60/month saving.

3g?

I just moved to Simple mobile $40 plan. Their 3g speed is lower than t-mobile's 2g speed. On t-mobile 2g i had 130kbps and now on 3g I have 117kbps. Why they call it 3g speed plan.

Have you try the $30 pre paid, Tmobile plan, give you 100 minutes, unlimited text, 5gb high speed (4g) data, then throttle down until renewal date,
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaolinx:
So guys, here is my story so far.

I have been on Tmobile contract for a while and decided to switch to a Prepay plan. The "unlimited" plans offered by t mobile are overpriced(+highly throttled) so I looked else where.

I am currently using simple mobile, which started with the 40$ plan. Soon after I noticed that the 40$ unlimited plan was highly throttled to about 140kbs and had to switch to the 60$.

With the bill almost doubling and simple mobiles piece of crap* service, I did some research and found out that straight talk was coming out with a 45$ truly unlimited plan with no throttling for at&t and tmobile. Now I havn't used it yet but ordered the tmobile sim card. I have heard great things about the at&t $45 plan and will switch after this month is over.

Can you people read

Goto the simple mobile website and read what it says...

Yes $40 plan you get 3G speeds but only for you first 200mb then you get back to 120kbs...

The only way you are going to get 3G /4G on simple mobile is to stop being cheap and get the $60 plan.. read the website guys ... it isn't rocket science.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tripprapp:
I have been throttled a 118kbps since day one. Not really a problem since I am on wifi most of the time.

I would advise people to go with the $60 plan if they do not have acess to wifi youtube will buffer for hours.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webbies:
When i see the battery usage under phone status, i notice that the Phone signal is grey most of the time (see attached screenshot).

I'm not sure what that means, and i know that sometimes people have tried to call me, and i never received any call.

Can anyone explain what the grey part means? Or any other reason that i didn't receive the calls?

Note: The phone was idle for a long period of time and not in the charger, when the "missing calls" were made.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
First of all, both of those are Sense 3/3.5 builds. Others have differing opinions, but I personally find them to be extremely laggy, so I use CM7 ROMs instead. It's a shame because I really like the Sense UI, but can't do much about it. Some things which will improve your user experience are:

1. Overclock using SetCPU, will make the ROM smoother

2. Use a task killer. Again, there are largely varying opinions on this but I always, without fail, find that my ROM runs smoother with 200mb free RAM than with 100mb.

3. Change your ROM. This is probably the best thing you can do, CM7 ROMs (e.g. Hyperdroid, Typhoon, Dorimanx etc.) and MIUI ROMs are much faster than Sense 3.0/3.5 ROMs. However, the fastest ROMs in my opinion are actually the Android 2.2 Sense 2.0 ROMs. Unbelievably fast and smooth with the Sense experience :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Oh right, fair enough then. I could use that thread myself, been considering changing to cLK ;)

Hmm, people actually recommend a class 2 SD card for this sort of stuff I think. Not sure whether or not this is only for SD Android, but this thread shows that most people find that a Class 2 SD is more than fast enough. On the last page, one post says that the transfer from a class 2 to a class 10 made no difference.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
If your considering changing to cLK their is a newer one that is better than MAGLDR. I personally believe cLK for Android has been better the entire time but the new 1.5 version certainly is. My guide is written for cLk 1.4 which if your not sure what your doing that is better for now. But cLk 1.5 supports repartitioning without a computer and comes with recovery built in. None the less, I really did not mean to link to that guide the first time. I just copy and pasted the wrong thing accidently.

Any progress on such an idea?

I was trying to find an animation I could loop of either the warrior with the fog rolling behind him

or make the dragons in the background of this image circle around until the phone boots.

Obviously there could be something leading up to either loop :)

Foreword : Without you guys, my Evo, my Fire, and my Iconia would not be what they are today (rooted and humming along). While I'm no programming genius, I discovered this trick this morning, and wanted to pass along a little something for the community that has helped me out so much. Without further ado...

For this you need the game Siegecraft installed on a rooted android device, a root file explorer, (I use Estrong's), and a pc. Difficulty=cakewalk

1) use your root explorer to navigate to the Siegecraft install location. On my Acer Iconia A100 it's /data/data/com.blowfishstudios/siegecrafthd

2) go into the "shared_prefs" folder. You should see only one file: com.blowfishstudios.siegecrafthd.xml copy this file to the desktop of your computer via lan or usb hook-up. delete the original xml file.

3) right click on the xml file, and choose "edit." find this line of code:

<int name="coins.avail.beta01" value="x" />

"x" is the amount of coins you currently have. change the value in between the quotations to 100000000, and save the file.

4) transfer the xml file back to the directory you got it from, and then restart your device.

5) start the Siegecraft game, and then go straight to the shop. you should see 100m in coins. pat yourself on the back that you just saved yourself over $180 in real money (if you would have bought 6 of the "Dragon's Hoard" in-game.

I've tried this using just Estrong's text editor, to save the trouble of having to transfer the file back and forth, but I just can't get it to work. Maybe someone smarter than me will figure it out.

Enjoy!

[Desire HD General] K.Chan:
is it still under warranty? if it does may be try the service center =]
[Desire HD General] SmokingDesire:
No it is not
[Desire HD General] tomegranate:
It very probably is - if you've still got your paperwork that came with your phone, you'll see that HTC include a TWO year warranty, not one year! I'm in the UK too so I'm certain your warranty will be the same. And of course you can't have had your phone for longer than two years, yet.

I just realised this the other day when I found the phone's package when tidying, and as my phone's GPS hardware has stopped working, I am going to get it repaired under warranty. I asked T-Mobile (my network) today if they would honour the two-year warranty, and they said yes, and that they would arrange the repair (I thought I might have to go direct to HTC to claim the warranty after the first year).
[Desire HD General] pwraggcan:
+1 to that. Definitely 2 year warranty in the uk. Here's the number. 01753218960 I've sent numerous handsets to them with no paperwork or receipts and they always do the repair. Call them up. They're service is very good. DON'T send it through your service provider.

For real? I had no idea. That would save me making two trips to the T-Mobile shop (I'm TMO too).

I'm slightly concerned about the change of IMEI number if my mainboard is replaced. Has this been an issue when you've arranged your repairs directly? Because if it does change, T-Mo would need to have the correct IMEI number, wouldn't they?

Hi

I have an ASK 748SP tablet, model info "crane-evb v13" with Android 2.3.4 installed.

I have not had success with flashing a recovery mode.

My device is not on the ROM Manager list.

flash_image responds with "Error scanning partitions: No such file or directory."

The device was strangely rooted when I bought it from the retailer. The instruction manual strangely says to boot into recovery mode by holding Vol + and the power button. I called the support company and they said that a recovery needs to be installed first. Using Root Explorer there is no recovery folder. (/recovery) - is there supposed to be?

Sorry if all of that doesn't make sense. I'm a noob around here.

So my question is how can I flash a recovery mode on my device OR how do I flash a ROM via my computer? (and make backups.)

PS: I do not have fastboot and am hopeing to upgrade to ICS.

Any help would much be appreciated. Thanks.

Have you found anything out yet?

I purchased a 5 point capacative screen 7 inch tablet from Ebay (NEW) about 4 weeks ago. The name of this tablet is Tablet PC (LOL). But under About Device and model number I get the same crane-evb-v13, Android 2.3.4, Kernel Version 2.6.36-android. Other than a minor issues with a keyboard, a retarded partioning, and getting Netflix to stay in sync (voices and video out of sync) the unit has been fast, responsive, and over all good considering I paid $128 new for it.

Have you made any head way as to if this unit can be rooted?
[General Questions and Answers] Yharooer:
My tablet surprisingly came rooted like I said, I have tried rerooting it but didn't succeed. Unfortunetly I have bricked my device but hope to recover it soon.

@I get the same crane-evb-v13, Android 2.3.4, Kernel Version 2.6.36-android

I have Android 2.3.4 too (or should I say I did, ;) ) Kernal Version 2.6.36-android, and I too have minor issues with the keyboard.

Retarded partitioning - I think so too - once again - flash_image failed, I seem to have /mnt/sdcard instead of /sdcard. The sdcard is built in which kind of confuses me.

Thanks for your reply, hope you can get your device rooted. If you find anyway to install recovery mode, please tell me.
