[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
If I understand you correctly, you have an Epic that you're using with a Verizon subscription? Not just roaming? Either way, you'll probably want to look into changing to a Verizon PRL (Preferred Roaming List.) I'm not certain how the PRL on an Epic works if you're on Verizon service, but I know there are Verizon-friendly and -specific PRLs available. See the thread concerning switching PRLs in Development.

As for your modem: some people have better connections with newer modems, some are better with older modems. The only way to know is to flash different ones and experiment.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
Nope, that's just in your head. Our phones work just fine on CDMA towers.
[Epic 4G General] AdamaDBrown:
Technically, it's a Verizon MVNO, but yes. I've updated the PRL, and to the latest stock modem which helped the problem considerably, but I still have problems with the signal strength "wobbling" a lot--such as going from 4 bars to 0 to 4--and resulting issues like dropped calls.

No, it's not "just in my head."
[Epic 4G General] Sohip:
I have Pageplus service (which is a Verizon MVNO) and I noticed the signal bars dropping to zero a few times when I'm at work indoor, but I never had dropped calls with this service AFAIK.

The only problem I have right now is with the 3G data which doesn't work at all. especially after I started using CM7 roms :(
[Epic 4G General] AdamaDBrown:
Have you checked the username credentials? This flummoxed me for awhile when I first ported my number in to my current provider: I couldn't get online even though the data was provisioned. But phones flashed from another carrier generally won't automatically update their data connection username and password. Mine didn't, so I had to go in manually with QPST to change it to the right values. It should match your phone number; if not, that's probably your issue.

Okay. How bad is it? Does it turn on? Can you get into download mode?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GreyDark:
Have you been using the Samsung Admire for long? Or did you just switch to it after using the Verizon Droid Bionic? If you are using the Samsung Admire, this might be the solution to your problem, but I can't guarantee for sure.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AurosGamma:
Hello there! I've been looking for a thread like the present one, but I didn't find nothing...

I live in Venezuela, the operator ( the one that I'm using) here is called Movistar which uses 850MHz band. Currently I'm using BVJJPG Modem because I read that it has 850MHz band support and mainly because that's the most downloaded modem in RomManager.

So here's my question, what's the best overall Modem for the I9000? The current one has a very good signal quality and in the battery usage graph I can see that it is consuming around 20% (Cell Standby), is that a decent amount of battery? or maybe is to high for a Modem...

I also have seen other Modems rolling around like JVT and KG3. What's your personal preference?

Thanks for taking your time to read.

[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
Don't know if anyone's interested, but here I go:

Bought a Thunderbolt back in April and have had it replaced 7 or 8 times for various reasons. Each replacement, I've also had intermittent issues sending email from my POP3 account.

I demanded a Rezound, but they only gave me a Charge. Here's the comparison:

Speed: Charge wins EASILY. I expect at least 20 on the charge and hope for at least 10 on the Thunderbolt.

Weight: Charge is MUCH lighter. I like that.

Display: Charge wins easily. AMOLED is fantastic.

Screen: Charge. I love the way the screen feels. Much smoother than the Thunderbolt at times.

EVERYTHING ELSE: Thunderbolt. It's "quicker" overall, more responsive, GPS locks in within seconds (Charge took about 5 minutes), phone pad is more user-friendly and didn't require as much reaching from the thumbs, Thunderbolt NEVER freezes (Charge did), no longer randomly reboots (Charge did), camera sends portrait pics right-side-up (Charge doesn't), and I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

I should point out that because of its positives, I really wanted the Charge to work for me. It was a VERY hot chick. But it was not a wise choice. So for functionality, I'm sticking with the Thunderbolt. Just gonna deal with it not sending mail intermittently.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shahkam:
How can you say thunderbolt is faster if you say that in terms of speed charge is better ??
[Verizon Droid Charge] Hindle1225:
I'm guessing he's referring to the 4g speed
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
Just put Tweakstock on with the V6 Supercharger and Voodoo Screen Tuning. You won't go back to the TB and its ****ty battery life. Plus, with Imnuts' new PBJ kernel we can finally overclock and undervolt for maximum performance and battery life. Loving this phone again :]
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
Tweakstock? V6? Voodoo? I assume all of that requires rooting, right? Sorry. I'm too chicken to root. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] adrenaline_rush:
Rooting is the only way to go for the best possible experience.

I had a Thunderbolt, Revolution, and Charge so I have experienced all of them and will have to give it to the Charge as the best overall.

Thunderbolt was the only Android phone I had fail on me after 3 months of use. It also is considered a dud, with countless complaints from reboots, to radio issues, and so on.

It has a worse GPU/processor

Hardware buttons are TERRIBLE. They are mushy and flush, which doesn't sound like a big deal, but to me it's very annoying every time I use the phone

No hot-swappable SIM/SD

Less battery capacity 1400 vs 1600 and also by far the worst battery life of the three.

Hardware keys>capacitive keys

Thunderbolt does feel better in hand and I like the design.. I also am envious at the development/ROMs the Thunderbolt has, such as MIUI...
[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
the only thing I'm jealous of the Thunderbolt for is the notification LED... I like everything else on the Charge (except the damn data drop which still happens occasionally for me :rolleyes: ), and am content with the amount of dev work we have though admittedly little
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Son, do you realize where you are?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Deeked:
I lol'ed :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
Yeah, yeah...so will the gps and responsiveness improve if I root?
[Verizon Droid Charge] 71CH:
How do you overclock and undervolt?
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
Yes, if you root and download "FasterFix" your GPS will be much better. Although, it doesn't work for some people so you might need to edit a file in your /system. Either way your GPS will be much better. Rooting is insanely easy, you plug your phone into the computer, run a program, reboot, install a file and bam, you're rooted. Just check out some of the guides in Development. Also, don't feel chicken to root, we have the files needed to completely fix a bricked phone(unless you happen to brick it while messing with Voodoo Lagfix, which with our current ROM/kernel choices is almost impossible, and even then it can be fixed 99% of the time).

Install Imnuts' new PBJ kernel(its posted on Rootz) in CWM, then install Voltage Control and mess with your voltages/CPU clocks to your hearts content, although I warn you, never go over 1.4GHz or you run the risk of frying your CPU since anything over 1.4 heavily overvolts which is a very big no-no.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
That's helpful...thanks for the advice. I've never rooted before, but that's quelled some of my concerns. I should mention that I'm getting some INSANE download speeds here in Kansas City...usually north of 23 and up to 49. It's great. I'm having issues with losing data connectivity (altogether) which requires a reboot. Other than that, I think my phone is getting used to me and adjusting accordingly. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
You should try toggling airplane mode when data drops.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
Yeah, I've tried that, too. Sometimes it works but usually it doesn't.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bkhorn:
I lose 3G data for days and I am on my 3rd phone. The last replacement lasted 2 hours before the data dropped for 10 hours.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
It's weird, I think some Charges have data issues possibly due to quality control the either the 3G or 4G basebands or both, whereas other Charges don't have issues.

I can personally attest to having a reliable charge, although I rarely go to a 4G area.
[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
I live in a solid 4G area but still the data droppage on mine is horrendous, problem is that its not reproducible in store because of their signal boosters so no go on a replacement (I don't like dealing with the reps on the phone either, most don't know what they're doing and I don't wanna call 50 times just to get a good one lol)

I'm saving up for a Nexus or I might wait for the next HTC superphone, either way I like my Charge a lot but the data issue on mine is a deal breaker otherwise I'd stick with it till my upgrade
[Verizon Droid Charge] hazard209:
Unfortunately I heard that it's not just a Charge issue, but a Samsung issue. Just from reading online articles it seems that the Nexus has the same issue. At lease it did with 4.0.2. I dunno about 4.0.3.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
It is a Sammy issue. A lot of people came from the fascinate to the charge for just that issue.

We had 2 fascinates in the house bought at the same time. Mine dropped once in awhile the other was solid. I got the charge as a replacement and it has been very solid. My wife has a stratosphere and she loses data once in awhile but a quick airplane toggle restores it. It is a weird issue and must be in quality control, though the fascinates issue was resolved with a software patch eventually
[Verizon Droid Charge] DirgeExtinction:
Hm,I've read of other phones(different manufacturers) having similar issues.
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
It's been an issue since the samsung moment. But mine is very solid, it will drop rarely and toggling data fixes it.

~Sent from my Droid SuperCharge~
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
The Nexus uses the same 4G baseband and slighty modified 3G baseband as the Charge. I suggest researching the Nexus before purchasing one to see if the data issues have been fixed.
[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
newer builds (4.0.3+) are supposed to have fixed that problem from what I've read
[Verizon Droid Charge] chrisrach3:
I just got a Rezound replacement for the Charge and I LOVE IT! This was after one phone call to Verizon. Fantastic phone. No data drops and my 4G speeds are around 25-32 megs. Very satisfied.
[Verizon Droid Charge] khalilcr:
Yesterday dwitherel posted the fp1 modem patch. Look in the fp1 update thread. It fixed my sound issues, and my data never dropped again...
[Verizon Droid Charge] TheMuffStuff:
Ive had both phones, and this thunderbolt is great.. Sense 2.1 isnt really slow.. phones fast.. but sense does lag sometimes. The build quality is better, kickstand is great, but the battery life is absolute doodoo. And im sorry but S-LCD and Samoled seem the same to me. And im 18 with perfect eyes. Theres no difference, oh and the camera on the bolt is better.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
So the two main hardware differences between the two phones are battery life and ram then, right? And software wise sense vs tw.

[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
I haven't heard one good report of the Thunderbolt screen in direct sunlight. Put a Charge and Thunderbolt next to each other in direct sun, and see which screen is better ;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
You forgot that some people don't go outside. Also, I can agree with this. I have no problems looking at my phone at noon outside and my friends with t-mobile HTCs (mytouch 3g slide, 4g, 4g slide) complain about it.

Also they all have horrendous battery life in comparison.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bobsbbq:
My work phone was a Thunderbolt, and after a mishap I had to do a insurance replacement. The Thunderbolt was no longer in stock so I got the Charge. While I've only had it a couple of days I can say it is a lot better than my Thunderbolt.

For me the battery life is the most important and is much better than the TB. Data seems to be ok but I live on the fringe of 4G area and it switches back and fourth from 3G to 4G but I will test it out better over time.

By the way I also have a Nexus running 4.04 and it has the same data drop problems. The WiFi speeds on the Nexus suck and I have replaced it twice but still have the same problems. It just won't handle fast WiFi download speeds, where my other devices in the house pull 30 Mbps the Nexus struggles to get 12 Mbps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xfearxphoenixx:
I had a chance to have a Thunderbolt and what turned me off from it is the battery life. I hear that phones dies (from fully charged) within a few hours. One thing I love about the Charge is that it has good battery life. It does lock up and lag. But by flashing a different rom. (I like Tweaked v2.0 by dwitherell) you can have a very smooth experience with owning the Droid Charge. Just my two cent.;)
[Verizon Droid Charge] bolt_of_thunder:
I've got a tbolt right now but I'd like to get something else. I got my wife a bionic and I love how fast it is and how much better the screen is, even though I can totally notice the screen door effect. A nice used one goes for about $200 whereas the charge looks to be about $50 less on average.

I do love flashing new roms and I notice there aren't as many options for the charge as there are for the bolt. Should that concern me? Oh and are the data drops\signal strength issues solved?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Lol if you think the bionic screen is good then wait till you look at a charge. Most of us think that the bionic has one of the worst smartphone screens around. Also, in the 2 last system updates the data drops were fixed. The signal strength is also improved, but not as good as what I was seeing on my previous phone. We have two solid ROMs and a very smooth and stable ICS that is just missing the camera and data (voice, text, wifi work fine).

Finally, if you do get the Charge used, watch out for the screeching audio. There is a specific hardware revision of the Charge that has this screeching sound when you are in a call.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bolt_of_thunder:
The wife's previous phone was a fascinate so I'm familiar with how beautiful the amoled screens are. I like how bright the bionic screen is in daylight and overhead office type lighting compare to the bolt's. Dual core and bigger stock battery is nice too on the bionic. I do tend to do a lot of multitasking and my bolt just can't keep up most times even on aosp roms.

Is there a dedicated thread about which hardware version is good and bad? I'll have to do more research about the charge. Thanks

[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
This screen blows even the galaxy s screens out of the water in terms of outdoor visibility. Also the low amount of RAM is not too good for multitasking but it works good enough for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] DirgeExtinction:
Eh, my Charge still has data drop outs every now and then. Didn't have that with neither the Rezound nor the Nexus.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I guess I just don't know what "normal" is then. The last phone i had was a blackberry 8330 with only 1x and that thing never dropped signal no matter where i went.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
yes and no.

With JUST root, there are things you cannot do without root to improve both the GPS and the responsiveness. IS the improvement all that dramatic? Your Mileage May Vary never applied more.

With root AND a ROM (either eclipse or my daily driver, tweak 2.0) I am going to say yes without a doubt, it may be less noticeable with the GPS but as far as the response times, it will increase a million times over.

Hello, XDA Developers.

I have a question for you. I've searched a lot for some similar question across the XDA Forum (and also Google) but without success.

Cutting to the chase, my question is:

Is it safe and/or possible to flash a LT18a firmware to a LT15a phone? I don't want to "overclock" my processor by doing this, I know it just won't work since it is hardware dependant and the processors are different.

I have found the 4.0.2.A.0.62 FTF files for my region but they are intended to be used on LT18a phones. It can be found at WotanServer.

Yes, it is safe and the phone seems quite faster. Could be a placebo effect but whatever. Using it along with DooMKernel V17-FIX2 (overclocked to 1.4 GHz), Baseband 36 (plus Iridaki's libs) and Link2SD. Working great!

Further, it would be fine if someone could answer (doesn't matter for me, but other people might see this thread too) if it is safe and/or possible to flash a LT15i to a LT15a Arc. It seems OK for me, cause' another user already answered to a similar question. See the link below if you're interested.

Yes you can, I did it, by some reason LT18a got more bloatware then LT15a LOL, but no problems for now..the proccessor on LT18a is T version, but again it's hardware clocked to 1.4, maybe that why the FW do work fine.

I recommend to flash GEL instead of US (more crap in US one)

if you need for I, so go with UK then

Thank you, E15i. I'll try to do the same tomorrow. Please let me know if you face any problem. I'll let you know if anything happens to me too.

Okay so I was just wondering are we EVER going to get ICS or GB offical or unoffical the development on this phone leaves a lot to be desired what is stopping ppl from making a cm7 rom instead of 2.2 froyo I'm not flaming or trying to be rude sorry if I come off that way I'm just curious
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
There will probably never be a gb or ics Tom's for this phone...

The lack of creativity is stopping people from making cm7 ports, some one just needs to backwards engineer the Samsung drivers. Let me make that clear, backwards engineer, not wait for source code to be released. They are two totally different things altogether. People on this thread will tell you otherwise.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Dr.Gonz0:
Part of it is also the general attitude. I"m going to be honest here... I see a mix of pro active people with the talent and skill who have done great within the scope of their skills and their willingness to even want to contribute. Their work I appreciate greatly, but then I read allot of negative nellies who seem to complain and bicker more than actually contribute. Yea it's frustrating with samsung/tmo being stingy *****es but screws it, keep moving forward regardless. Looks like option B (reverse engineering) appears to be the only viable option at this point. Thus my bounty I have posted elsewhere.

Frankly i'm just glad to have a device that works, and lucky enough to not be bound to pure stock with no root.

So, I'm going to sacrifice my free time to reverse engineer compiled code (and dig through the resulting bytecode) and port over a new OS because... ...

You know, dealing with obfuscated bytecode is difficult and time consuming. Frankly, I don't want to invest the time and trouble; I don't even see a good reason to bother.
