How hard is the concept that you share a tower with 1, 10, or 50 other users, and that the more active your tower, the slower your speeds?

20mbps is not terrible if your sector has at least 3 other active users. (72mbps per sector, divided by 3, plus a bit for signal loss). And if you think that your speeds will always be 50mbps wherever you go, you're in for a rude awakening when more people begin sharing the towers you're using right now. There are no speed guarantees with LTE. Access is equally divided (for the most part).

As to the OP, you may just want to call up VZW and tell them that your LTE download speed is slower than your EvDO speed. More significant though is that your upload speed is faster than your download speed, and your latency is a bit high for LTE (even on 2 bars)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
First of all, those pictures you are showing of your signal are on 3G! Have nothing to do with 4G. Completely different. You need to understand what people are saying also. 1 bar = low signal quality, low dbm. More bars = better signal quality and higher dmb.

Also results will vary by area so you should only compare with someone in your area.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gtab55:
I have compared speeds with my brother's Charge. His are higheer but not by much, plus he has different bars so I cant tell if three bars on his mean 1 on the nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dudeimgeorge:
Wrong chief, low signal, high dbm.

High signal, low dbm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rommel500:
I regularly get ~ 30mbit with low latency in the 50-60ms range with full bars at my office. At home I usually have ~ 10-15mbit with around the same latency with usually only two bars.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stadsport:
I think something's up with Verizon's LTE network right now. I was getting 10-15mbps with 2-3 bars, and now in the same spot I'm only getting ~3mbps. This following several hours of no LTE connectivity yesterday.

MicroSD 32GB SanDisk class 4 on sale on eBay.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
And your point is? . . . .

Completely unclear whether you are a seller spamming the board (Marketplace is the forum for selling items), making a recommendation, or asking a question.

eBay is littered with counterfeit SD cards. And unfortunately, its pretty much impossible to know whether what you are buying is the genuine article, or a complete scam. I'd never buy any type of flash memory from eBay.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshthewaster:
OK. They finally updated after about 20 min. Which is annoyingly long time to wait right after getting a new app. I would still like to know if I can force them to refresh though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
You have to tell us specifically which widgets are you using and what apps have you installed to interact with them.

As far as I know widgets are real time unless the launcher is caching the screens. So if its not the launcher it may be that the apps you installed have not gathered enough data yet for the widget to display it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorrich:
I also have this problem, and I've just resorted to rebooting my phone. Not ideal, but seems to be the quickest way to update the list.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshthewaster:
Just to clarify I meant the ICS app drawer widget selector thing is not refreshing. Not horrible but kind of annoying to have to reboot or wait forever.

Ok so I dropped my phone had to replace digitizer and LCD everything went smooth until I turned it on and the LCD is very dark has a greenish tint and is washed out colors from bottom to top top being the darkest so I called the shop I got the LCD from they sent me a new one and installed it and same problem so I took my wife's phone apart and tested both new lcds and they looked the same being dark with greenish tint so I am wanting to know could my phone be messing up the lcds or did he just send me 2 bad ones and I should find a new supplier I don't want to test my wife's LCD in my phone on the off chance my phone could be messing up the lcds what do y'all think any advice would help
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cac2us:
It sounds like they are sending you the parts for another phone.

You are right about being cautious with your wife's phone.

Can you call the shop you bought both of the screens from and verify the type of phone that they are sending the part for?

You may have 2 perfectly good screens for a Inc S.

OR, but highly uncommon that your video card has crashed in a way that it could be corrupting every screen that you throw at it.

I don't think there is any way that the screen can be damaged by the phone in a way that is causing BOTH screens to fail.

But just to be safe, I would wait for advice from someone with more experience on the matter..

That or see what the shop says.

When you heated up the unit could you have melted any solder connections around the components?

That should be lead free solder with a higher melting point than regular solder.

Good luck..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] plh233391:
Thanks for your response and when I heated it up the logic board was already out of the phone so no heat was applied to it but I will call the shop I didn't think about it being and incredible s screen I wonder if that would make a difference although their website says the screen os for the s and 2 but again thinks for your response
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] plh233391:
Thanks aging I just got a new LCD in from another supplier and it works perfect so the other ones were just bad lcds

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsp254:
I've had my shift since feb. Rooted since day one.

Phone works, keyboard works, speakers work, everything works. Battery seems to drain faster, but hell, its a year old and gets used extensively.

I have the $8 insurance thing through them since day one. Never once used it.

My phone has been dropped more times than a $10 crack whore. Dented, scratched, chipped, etc. But as I said, all works.

Do you guys think sprint would replace it with a new phone under the insurance plan? Has anyone done this? Does it have to be broken to be replaced? Does the deductable apply? Should I try to replace it in a sprint store, radio shack, or does it have to be done via phone/snailmail?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
If the phone is still in good working order, cosmetic damage will not get you a replacement. Unless that damage is to the screen ( cracked screen ) . If your screen is just scratched they will not do it. As for a good place to try and possibly get a replacement. I would try the Sprint Authorized Repair CenterIt's where when I've had an issue with my phone It's been resolved every time. But experiences vary a lot from what I've heard.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
Or if you really want a new phone just throw it on the floor till it does break and say someone tried stealing it and it fell in the middle of the street while a car ran over it :)
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:
Find a friend at a sprint store and have them send you a REPLACEMENT. ASURION IS A LAST RESORT.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsp254:
Thanks guys. I don't know if there's a repair center around here, but I'll check.

As far as the "accident", I've considered many options. Such as a drop in the potty during #2... and bringing it to the store in a bag with poo attached. Bet I wouldn't even have to unroot!!!

I will probably try the replacement path first. The salesman I used was a straight up guy, or seemed to be. I may take a ride up to huntsville this weekend and see if he still works there. Hopefully.

I guess I'm foolish for not knowing, but the insurance that comes from a true sprint store, is that assurion? I thought it was something they handled directly. I guess the confusion comes from different posts I've seen here. Didn't one of you guys break hinges a while back and get a new phone? What was your situation as far as sprint, insurance, etc.?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Well the cofusion usually comes from Sprint spliting up what they do " in house " , vs what they call an " insurance claim ". Although from my understanding if you do not have T.E.P. , then you cannot make an insurance claim. They do have guide lines, but I've seen different stores interperate them differently. The biggest thing IMO is that if they do not resolve the problem in house ( at the repair center / store ) then they try and make it an insurance claim. You then have to contact Insurian, that realy sucks. Because then you most times end up paying the deductable, which is now $100 :( .
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modmouse78:
my earpiece went out last saturday. i brought it to a repair center and they kept it for a few hours. They told me they couldn't fix it, so they ordered me a new one, but it was on backorder and didn't know when it will be in. Been calling everday and a no go.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] sungod88:
So the color has had hcfor a while and there is a functional ics rom out now. Would you trade your tablet for the color if you had the chance? To have a actual well partial bc or ice tablet.

Personally I probably wouldn't because I feel the tablet will only get better with time and the great devs we have working on it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] iferlive:
Why should somebody do that? NT is much better than a NC, it's been only 2 months since NT release. Custom roms doesn't appear magically they take time to be deloped and tested, Devs are close to achive a recovery boot and only then we can think in GB, HC and ICS.

NT doubles the NC in everything (exept price :p) NT will be better so we only have to be patient and support developers.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] conundrum768:
Not a chance. The NC has it's CyanogenMod and what not. But, the NT is just a better piece of technology. Of course, I hope that we break all the walls keeping us from modding the **** out of this thing; but, I could be perfectly happy with the root privileges that I have now.

I bought my NT to be a tablet, I read books, stuff for work (mostly pdf), watch movies, surf the web, send/receive email, and little else. I've always seen the tablet as a bridge between the smartphone and the laptop -- the NT does this with flying colors.

I'm a flash addict. Have been for about seven years now. I love pushing hardware and trying to make devices and software do things that they were never designed to do. But, I will (almost) never opt for a markedly worse piece of hardware for what I see as superfluous alterability.

I'll be watching dev threads and helping any way I can. But, much like the Detroit Lions fan in me, I'm pretty satisfied with how far things have come.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] thatdude90210:
Yeah, no way. I gave away my old NC with CM7 to a family member and got the NT. I liked everything about the NC except the speed. It just felt slow and laggy on most things, even overclocked.

About ICS, I can wait. I have other tablets that will get it soon anyway.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] beatlesfan01:
I wouldn't trade it either. I'm doing pretty well with root and side loading apks. My galaxy nexus cdma is getting all of my attention right now anyways :p
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] The_Joe:
My interest in nooks began on the 27th of Dec with an NC my good friend had received for Christmas. We tried a few roms, but in the end we decided to take it back and he got a NT instead.

On the 1st we rooted the NT, learned a few more advanced techniques for side loading and such. He took it with him back to Cali, he loves it. His brother is asking me to do one for him and mail it.

Grand pa is buying a NT for "The Joe" treatment also. I thought about the KF, but I find the idea of non expandable storage more offensive than a locked bootloader. Maybe thats just me. NC isnt even on the menu.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] pepi4:
Not me. I'm having too much fun with the Nook Tablet ;)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shawner47:
I have to agree with everyone else and say, no, I wouldn't trade mine. It is a nice piece of hardware and as it is right now, it does anything I want it to do and then some.

The development will get there, I have no doubt about that. These guys/gals have done amazing things so far!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] promek:
Same here. my wife has a nook color already and she gave me NT for christmas. the NT is alot faster than the color especialy loading webpages and playing movies, plus it has the mike on which is ok i use speak to it assistant and it works just fine
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Eustace2:
I agree with everyone else. With the root from indirect and the ability to load other apps and change the launcher, I can be satisfied until we can load GB, HC or ICS. For me, the NT is an investment in better hardware that will serve me into the future as the software catches up.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fortunz:
I gather the holiday return policy doesn't end until 1/31, so anyone who would trade it certainly has the opportunity.

My NT works very, very well for play. It only works so-so for the work I have envisioned for it due to the lack of USB host. I'm stunned by how quickly the devs have figured out ways around and even through what was called an unbreakable security system (aren't they all called that :rolleyes: ) at the very beginning. If there weren't so much hope on the horizon, I might well trade 'down' to get the extra productivity and settle for less entertainment power. But I'm glad it looks like I don't need to.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] xshawk:
there is a HUGE difference between a decent port of ics and what you are referring to as a "functional ics rom" (the only one I can find is still an alpha build)

ics will never run on the NC the way it will (eventually) on the NT, the NC just doesn't have the hardware speed.

so no I wouldn't downgrade to the NC, that would be ludicrous!

the dev's are still in the initial breakthrough phase on the NT and granted don't have a fully polished ROM out for the general public yet, but it's coming!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] NTAB:
I'm with you. For $50 more you get a better process, more ram, more memory, and a better overall device. Sure, right now it isnt as" moddable" as the NC, But I'm sure with time, it will be. Right now, have root access and being able tin install the android market and the amazon market have already made it basically an android tablet that can do anything its brethren can. I'm perfectly happy with it. when the bootloader is unlocked ans the 16gb of built in is accessible by non-BN content, I'll be happier, but I'm in no hurry. The 32 gig sd card is nowhere near being full.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Tel864:
Another no here. With a few minutes of work, I've got a tablet that's fully rooted and it's running faster and smoother than my color with CyanogenMod ever did.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] randyreed1971:
A agree with everyone. My daughters tablet is alot faster than my color. Even the sound is better. I have volume + on hers and mine and the tablet for some reason sounds alot better than the color, even at the same settings. Almost makes me want to trade mine or sell it and get the tablet. Even with the way the tablet is rooted, there is no difference than my color running phiremod, So imagine what it will be like when the tablet can have custom roms!

Speaking of a trade in, my wife got my color from Walmart for me for Christmas......can I get it exchanged as mentioned above or is that only for barnes and nobel?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] flippage:
I wouldn't think of trading it in. Patience is a virtue, and spending $50 to get double the hardware specs I don't mind waiting for the rewards to come in.

For my video player I'm using MX Video Player Pro. Once again a great player which even plays subtitles and plays ANYTHING you throw at it, theres never been a video it cannot play.

It also makes use of dual core processors therefore playing 720p & 1080p content is silky smooth & crystal clear. :D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanej2006:
It's great. With regards to organization you can sort by artist, albums, songs, genres or playlists.

Best part about the player is the equalizer! Goes from 30hz to 16khz and even has a preamp!

When playing tracks you can:

Refresh Artwork

Add tp Playlist

Delete

Use as Ringtone

All by Artist

All on Album

Home

Settings

Help

You can also edit tags, share and even identify song.

I strongly recommend this app, there is a free basic edition but if you like it pay for the pro version...
