Can we expect official Jelly Bean update from Pantech for Burst anytime in the future?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finn81:
Nobody knows.Pantech says nothing about that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnie29:
For default pantech launcher, I used to restart the phone, then go to settings, Apps, then slide right to search for ALL

Then, find the Pantech Home, click on it and then click on Force Stop.

Remember, dont click on clear data as it may clear all the home screen settings you customize.

So I think, for your custom launcher, you should too do the same, search for your custom launcher and force stop it

IMEI shows as "Unknown" on Pantech Burst?

So I found this Pantech Burst phone outside my house out on the street. Picked it up and did a hard-reset. It was on Gingerbread and before I did anything else I immediately updated it to ICS.

Now my next goal was to unlock it from AT&T and use my T-Mobile sim card on it. To even try to unlock it I need to find the IMEI number, however when I go to settings I find that it says IMEI Unknown. I tried calling the *#06# but it just says "IMEI" but where the number should be nothing shows up.

Is there a way to restore the IMEI? I'm aware that I can find it under the battery (which it is) but it's useless if the phone doesn't seem to be receiving signal or not detect any IMEI, so to speak.

I have no idea if it was previously rooted or anything like that. I can't insert my T-Mobile sim as it is a regular size one, I'm getting a micro-sim soon. Is this phone no good? or can I still rescue it and bring life to it? Thanks in advanced!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlasFamous:
If you can connect it to comp via USB, you can manually push IMEI number. Go to shell, and then enter the following:

echo 'AT+EMGR=1,7,"<IMEI_NUMBER>"'>/dev/pttycmd1

It is the standard method for restoring IMEI number on most androids. Replace <IMEI_NUMBER> with actual IMEI number for your phone.

Phone To Donate

I dropped my phone yesterday and shattered the screen.

Since I'm not using it anymore I figured I could donate it.

It still Works as far as I can tell, you just can't see anything.

But I figure if a dev bricks their device they can just do a screen swap on it.

So, anyone interested?

I am on ICS

and Can I root it and install other roms without getting it locked. i dont have unlock code though device is unlocked

So T-Mobile just got its HSPA+ 1900 MHz service hooked up in my area. Yay! Only problem is, I don't have a data plan and only use my phone on wifi, so it's useless to me.

But it's not irrelevant to the phone. Ever since my phone started displaying its merry 4g icon, the battery started draining in record time, even though data is switched off. Thoughts? I'm on Gizmolord 3A.

5 of 22 Burst's won't turn on in last 3 weeks

We got 22 Burst's in September for our company. In the last 3 weeks we have had 5 phones fail. Without any warning, the phones are off and won't turn on. Tried the vol down/power button, different batteries, etc and have had 3 replaced by AT&T already. The last two died yesterday and this morning. Obviously this is very concerning to us, but in my quick Google searches I really haven't found much about others having this issue with the Burst.

The forum search isn't working as I post this so I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

I noticed a few posts saying the Pantech Burst will not get 4G on T-Mobile's network. I don't think this is true.. I have an unlocked Burst on the T-Mobile network, and I'm able to see I get UMTS:3, HSPA:11, and HSPAP:15 when I go to *#*#info#*#*.

There is other roms out there and you need to use clockwork mod recovery to install them.

Your best bet to make a full backup of your device in CWM. it will all be organized. one thing it WILL NOT backup is your internal sdcard data. What I would do is use a archiver app on the play store (ZArchiver for example) and archive it or you can connect it to your computer, drag and drop all of the sdcard data into a folder.

Also guys, on the wiki, i added pantech to the manufacturers page. Feel free to add anything thats already there. Its pretty barebone

Gizmolord?

Currently I'm running stock ICS (rooted) on my Burst. The only "tweaks" I've made are adblock, Beats audio drivers, and removed a few of the AT&T bloatware apps. The phone lags sometimes, though not nearly as bad as it did on GB. Basically, I really want Google Now and a few other features. Is it worth it to flash Gizmolord 4.0? This is my only phone at the moment and I don't want to screw it up. Would I lose LTE if I flashed it? I'm in the US on AT&T.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightfire37:
I have my screen set off at 2 minutes, for the overheating issue i would look into your ram and see if you have some games and other things cached. you go to your settings, then tap apps, then swipe lift till you find running, then tap show cached processes. kill anything that isnt important to you. another thing you can do in go under the developer options and scroll all the way down till you see background process limit at set it to at most 4 processes. this helps free up some ram, give u slightly better battery, and at the same time fix the lag problem. another thing you can do is use a different launcher. I use nova because i wanted a feel of a vanilla android experience. Its lightweight and its fast to load.

Hope it works for you. I dont know if it works on Win 8. It worked for me in win 7. If you have win 8, you could try compatibility settings or something.

After rooting, just remove the ATT junk apps and others. Now I'm waiting for the ICS port to be finished, that would be awesome.

I dont know of any other roms or modifications. For my phone, I just did the stock 4.0.4 ICS udpate, rooted, removed junk apps, installed Nova prime laucnher and the lock screen. Thats all I did. I did remove the bootup sound and changed the bootup animation.
