[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DenzelChurchill:
This has become a pet project of mine, but I've found little information available online or on these forums. Is this something that is possible? Some Sprint reps say yes, others say no. The one who do say yes also iterate that you'll need to unlock it yourself, while the ones that say no seem to be newbies or rulebook-followers...which leads me to believe that it IS indeed possible, but with some work on the user's end.

So, has anyone moved a Verizon Android phone over to Sprint? If so, could you give me (and the many others looking for this) a walkthrough of the steps or where to go to research further?

Thanks a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnbibbs:
Not going to happen. The esn for the phone has to be in their database to activate the phone.

The only esns in that database are the phones that they sell.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DenzelChurchill:
Can this not be handled with a little social engineering?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unremarked:
No, the ESNs are in a computer database. If the rep enters an incorrect ESN or, in this case from their point of view invalid, the system will not move forward.

Even if that wasn't the case, I don't believe Verizon and Sprint operate on the same CDMA frequencies. Not to mention LTE. EVEN if that wasn't the case, the Galaxy Nexus pulls its subscriber information(like the phone number, data plan, etc) from its SIM card(just like GSM phones).

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] silow:
It is impossible at this point. The ESN isn't the roadblock. I'll quote a post made on Phandroid from someone who has much more knowledge on the topic.

"It is physically impossible to activate the Galaxy Nexus on Sprint. The Galaxy Nexus (along with all Verizon 4G LTE phones) provision CDMA using a UICC that has a CDMA SIM program embedded on it. AKA, a CDMA SIM card. There is nowhere to flash to make it work on Sprint!

Even if Sprint were willing to allow non-Sprint devices on their network (which they are not), you're still missing the CDMA SIM card that Sprint has to provide. They aren't making those available until Q4 2012 along with the LTE smartphones. And even then, do you want to try arguing with Verizon to get the Galaxy Nexus SIM unlocked? It just isn't going to happen... And let's not forget Sprint uses a non-standard implementation of CDMA, just like Verizon. They aren't fully compatible on certain aspects, like the messaging channels in 1X."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnbibbs:
MAYBE but probably not. You would have to know someone very high up at Sprint who is willing to risk their job for you.

Even then I'm not sure it's entirely possible because I think the 3G data services on this phone are authenticated through the LTE SIM card.

If that is not the case then you would have to figure out a way to program the Sprint PRL into your GN.

Bottom line I don't think it's possible.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chrisngrod:
Hate to refry an old topic, but this is not completely true. The RAZR, RAZR MAXX, Droid 4, and Bionic have been flashed to Cricket. This means there is a way to get it on Sprint. Legally... no. Just as legal as non Boost phones on Boost.

The Nexus uses a VIA chipset and not Qualcomm. Not many people have actually poked around on the device to see if there is anywhere to save the programming.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dagalufh:
Hello

I have just helped my father root his DHD with ARHD 6.3.1. I use it on my own and have no problems..

He on the other hand has problems:

On GSM with dataspeed "G", he gets none to 75% signal bars for regular cellphone.

On 3G/H, he gets none in signal bars for regular cellphone, meaning it is impossible to call him..

I have reflashed the radio that is recommended for ARHD 6.3.1..

He is using Telenor, SWE.. But the odd thing is that another phone using the same operator, has full reception..

When we looked at the singal strength in settings -> about phone, he had -100dBm to -120dBm..

Do anyone have any ideas and tips?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizmoe:
Try switching radios. 26.09.04.11 has given inspire and dhd users good results.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dagalufh:
Hi, where can i find that radio then? :/

is if from mike and regular flashing via fastboot as he does or?

nvm, google is my friend. :)

Thanks for the tip, will give it a go.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluntyeyedfool:
Fellow asteemed geeks,

How snug a fit is the Standard cradle? Will a silicone cover work with one without having to remove it?

If folks do not believe it will work, I'll skip the purchase of the cradle. I want a cover that just stays on 24*7.

regards

BEF
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunjabusiness:
Not unless the cover is "wafer-thin" in my experience.

There is an insert that is removable in each of the docks, but it doesn't give you enough room with most covers.

Sorry. I wish they had planned better ... say multiple inserts of differing thicknesses. :(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonedub:
You can remove the standard dock insert which will give you room to dock the phone with a case. With the Body Glove Mirage (soft) and Incipio Feather, I can dock the phone without that top plate installed. Downside is that it looks tacky and looks to put a lot of stress on the charging port on the phone since the top plate supports the weight of the phone.

I ended up getting the 'Ruggedized Battery Cover plate' from Motorola. There is a thread around here that details how you can get Motorola to send you one for free, although with the Atrix going EOL, it might not still be available. With this adapter plate you can dock the phone with pretty much any case that is not overly bulky (ie OtterBox Defender). Try searching for the thread on the 'Ruggedized battery cover' to find the exact instructions and part numbers you need.

Hi guys well it spears I am doing some phone hopping..

Just got a DROIDX , sold my g2x and

Well this morning I got a surprise ...

My woman bought me a DROID razr! Woot! ... I think.

So...apparently it unlocked?

What does that refer to on a cdma phone?

I didn't know you could unlock these types of phones..

Benefits?

Well anyways hope to be a good part of this lil subforum here .

How do you guys like the Drzr?

What's the camera quality like?

Well anyways happy new year to you all!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] skratchgonzo:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
the camera is great! I have had the droid x before this is way better than that. I love the razr everything works now. About unlocking you can't boot loader unlock and also if you have the Verizon xt912 razr or if you have the xt910 GSM razr it just depends the first does not work on domestic unlock only international. So I do not know what it means if the cdma phone says unlocked maybe the international idk. You should root and put a custom rom and kernel on it.

Sorry, I was going to post this in Software Development but I'm not allowed until I have 10 posts. :eek:

I'm wondering if anyone else would find it helpful to keep track of how many devices your app supports as you develop it? So specify the screen size/density and android versions etc supported and see the list of devices supported.

Maybe have an option to make it available to the public so people can see which phones/tablets are supported, which have been tested, which you are adding support for, etc.

Just wondering what people's thoughts on this are. :)

This is a 64 TP shipped to and bought in Germany

Direct GPS signal strength comparison between SGS2 and TF201 in car (non-coated windshield, same as "no windshield" for gps) using GPS Test:

SGS2: 41-26

TP: 21-11

The drive I just took showed one thing very clearly: The time to a fix is SLOW and the signal gets lost so often the TP is UNUSABLE for navigation. I've had my Galaxy S2 running parallel to compare the available signal, and this is a MASSIVE FAILURE.

Does the GPS find any satellites? YES. Does it do so quickly and reliably? NO. DEFINITE GPS FAIL.

2. In the Folder you downloaded Click Open cmd

4. When recovery boots, just flash the Kernal normaly

[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Use an explorer like root explorer and go into system\apps. You will find the apps there. Simply delete the apk file and it is gone for good! I am like you. When I flash a rom I delete all the apps I dont need. So far using stock rom 1.50 rooted, I have had it on now for about 36 odd hours and still sitting at 50% battery. Oh the other place you can delete downloaded apps from is \data\apps.

[HTC Sensation XL] WillyVWade:
So I brought the XL, and I knew that some space would be taken up from my "16GB", but is it really supposed to be only 8GB?
[HTC Sensation XL] jimbo.levy:
No. The 16GB is divided into phone storage (the equivalent of an SD card that cannot be removed) and internal storage.

The rest of the space is occupied by system stuff. So you get about 8-9GB of "phone storage" and about 3-4GB "internal storage".
[HTC Sensation XL] gavguitarhero:
long story short

the 16 bg is correct however it is shared out between phone and external storage

take your 16gb, minus the space for the OS

on my sensation xl i have the following

phone storage is 8.89gb. thats nearly 9gb so we will call it 9

and internal is 3.7 so lets say 4

so thats 13gb all together and give 3gb for OS

thats 16GB
