[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifreaker:
Hi,

I have a Nexus S I9020T and I have ICS 4.0.3 (rooted) with KI1 radio. Ever since I upgraded to 4.0.3 I've had really terrible 3G speeds (Like, 5-10kb down) I tried the KB3 and KF1 radios without any success. Weird thing though, I just made a nandroid backup and wiped the device to factory settings and speed increased to what I had before ICS. Then I restored the backup (because I forgot to take a Titanium backup) and wiped it again but the speed didn't return. So I flashed a 2.3.4 stock rom and flashed 4.0.3 stock again and for a few minutes I had really crazy speeds. Faster than I've ever seen on this phone. But then I rebooted the phone and back to speeds that make dial-up seem fast. Any ideas what might be wrong? Also can someone please provide me with a link to a KI1 radio download?

I'm on Airtel in India.

I live in fl and bought one yesterday at staples. They only had one and i snagged it but you should try calling local staples.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pandanak:
As the poster above stated, your best bet is to call around. I have seen them at staples, best buy, and office max while shopping for office surplies a few weekends ago however I doubt they lasted long as all the stores only had 1 or 2 on the shelf.

There are two at my local Office Depot that have been in stock for almost two weeks, even though they don't show them available there online. I guess everyone is afraid of OD's return/exchange only policy.

I ordered mine online from them in Dec. and managed to return it for full credit later, as they didn't have a replacement in stock. Just waiting to see what new stuff is coming out, unless current prices keep dropping and temptation takes over! The Acer A510 looks interesting.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
I'm in central Florida.

My local HHGreggs and Staples used to get a trickle in every week, but they are no longer carrying them.

I returned my defective TFP on Wednesday to BestBuy. They had no more in stock and told me they had none on order.

FYI - I started a thread for this, addressed specifically to Gary. Mod closed the thread and said something along the lines of "What's next, complain that there are no Yugo's available!".

He had a point. I never considered Asus the "Yugo" of tablet makers, but with the number of complaints, maybe we should.

flashed slim_build_02162012.zip, then got messege Install complete and Back menu button disabled. Cant acsses flash menu now(blank screen). What should i do now?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
did you mean you lost CWM recovery by saying you lost the "flash menu"?

did you flash the kernel as well?

(copied from spike1985 link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22613757&postcount=146)

-flash rom

-flash kernel

-flash gapps

-reboot to system

-reboot to recovery

-flash gapps again

-reboot to system

now that you are stuck, you can try flash a kernel via odin, maybe even hyperdroid kernel, just to get CWM recovery back.

Then use it to redo the correct steps.

Strange, just clicked several times the volume buttons and magically cwm said that back button was activated. From there i was able to proceed with normal installation:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] XBMC4LIFE:
So I have talked to many people in my area. (Arizona) and from what i'm hearing I will never have any 4g.coverage out here because sprint is going to LTE. Does anyone know if that is true or will they be expanding the 4g coverage into my area? I don't feel its right if I have a 4g phone but will never get it unless I get the galaxy nexus which will get there LTE in 2013.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
congradulations for living in the middle of nowhere ....just like me ...sprint will not expand wimax anymore if you want to use 4g there are like a couple places in phoenix and 2 towers in tucson ..... yay and thats it ....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] XBMC4LIFE:

[Motorola Photon 4G] ssaggy:
So my wife is up for an upgrade beginning of April. She has an Evo and its running like a dog and battery life sucks. I call up Sprint and ask if I can get her an early upgrade. There response is "No", we can't do that in our system. So I say you will not offer me anything if I pay the $50 termination fee. You would rather lose a 6 year customer than offer an early upgrade? No wonder they can't make any money. Was I talking to an idiot or is that Sprints business mentality?
[Motorola Photon 4G] MadFlava:
Thats pretty much how it is.

I filed Attorney General complaints against them, I filed FCC complaints against them. I spoke to retention, wrote the office of the president.. I dont think I left any stone unturned.

Thats how I ended up here. I had an Epic 4G Touch and it was awful. Worst radio ever. All I wanted was a reset of my upgrade. I didnt get it. After months of suffering with a complaint failure of a phone, I bought a Photon out of pocket.

Im just waiting for my contract to run out and Im bailing. I may go back to TMobile. I had good luck with them and the customer service there was outstanding.
[Motorola Photon 4G] msnglink:
hell im buying out my contract and going to verizon. atleast i will get what i pay for.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
it depends on the date you try to get early upgrades, they can do it, trust me, but if you fall within a certain time frame, they just can't, so just call back and see if you can get another person on the line, if they still give you lip, talk to customer retention *remember them, they are your friends* they'll work something out, especially since you actually want to stay with the company
[Motorola Photon 4G] MoPho:
I buy my phones at radioshack. They told me that usually they can get early upgrades approved if you're within 3 months of your eligible upgrade date.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Van Dutch:
good info on the early upgrades! i have to say, i'm not the most pleased w/ sprint either. I live about 20 minutes from their headquarters and regularly get dropped calls from within my hope. their answer is to buy their in-home tower.. granted it costs money and you need internet service to run it (i use my phone to tether my internet so can't use tower anyway)

anyway, when all is said and done, i don't like the coverage, but the price is really unbeatable for what services you do get ... at least that's my opinion

also - they tell you to pay for the tower to boost your signal, but will give it to you for free if you threaten to leave due to poor signal (friends did it)
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
i know this is off topic but the reception thing is whats getting to me.. i just signed up for sprint today because they had the lowest deposit for my **** credit and i really wanted the photon. the phone should come in by saturday (i hope) but the reception reviews through sprint are both confusing and scary. a lot of people say the reception sucks worse than any other carrier but some say its the best they've had. also in may area some friends say they love the reception and free roaming where sprint isnt available (using verizons towers) and some say they barely get reception at all and if your not in a populated area you can forget about it. i have played with the photon out in the country FAR away from civilization. went through back roads and held a phone converstion for over an hour on the photon from the country all the way to the city taking back roads and it did not drop my call. this was just one area i know but still pretty amazing.

i guess the real question is.. how is the reception when roaming? i live in arkansas and sprints coverage map is pretty poor here with sprint coverage only in the major cities here and the rest is roaming. and like i said the reviews for sprint coverage vs roaming have been mixed. its hard to get an unbiased opinion because i do know that it has a lot to do with the phones radio and the basic phones which dont have as many frequencies as the smartphones
[Motorola Photon 4G] Dsparil:
My problem with Sprint is the high bands that they are using. I never get Wimax indoors, and I often roam at work since it's underground.

T-Mobile uses high bands too, and Verizon is too expensive since they don't have a M2AM plan.

AT&T is actually the best fit for me even with their crappy costumer service. First Tegra 3 phone that comes out, and goodbye Sprint.
[Motorola Photon 4G] thepervster:
I just did an early upgrade from sprint on 2 phone line,one was due to upgrade in june that one costed $45 and the one for july costed $55. and that's how i got the photon's. that was 2 weeks ago.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mulhiny:
I find them to be all over the place. After going back and forth with the people at dan@sprint.com I actually secured a 10 month early upgrade, but my wife's line that is out in April I had no such luck pushing for an early so she can get an iPhone. Even though it would only cost me like $35 to terminate her line all together they were willing to let her go than upgrade her. I think if you have a legit gripe (I did) and are willing to go the distance with them (took me 2 months) then you have a good chance at success. But, in the case of my wifes line where I just wanted an early upgrade, no such luck.

I always recommend emailing your concerns to dan@sprint.com. Some one will call you back directly and then you will have a direct number to call back. This way you open a dialog with one rep.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jeff_in_LA:
I'm an 8 year sprint customer. I've lived and worked in the same place since I've signed up. The last 6 to 8 months, signal has been awful. Pretty much coinciding with the arrival of the iphone.

I guess quickly signing up almost 1 million new subscribers has taken a toll on bandwidth.

I bet they will get through this in 6 months to a year, but it sucks horrible now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
this is why i hate the icrap, but some people are too "dumb" to realize that the phone is a huge waste of money
[Motorola Photon 4G] Plancy:
Wait, how is it a waste of money? iPhone destroys any Android phone in build quality/software besides the fact that it's such a closed ass system.

Only thing that might top the software is Blackberry, when they release QNX to smartphones and make more powerful phones, cause they're really lacking in that department.

---------- Post added at 01:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 AM ----------

My parents/family has been with sprint since before I was born, I am 22 years old now. And we don't get special treatment from sprint, the only way to upgrade early is if its the main line. The signal sucks in my city/county as well.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
i look at a phone as a long term investment, if i can't get the most out of something that cost 200-300 bucks that i will be stuck with for 2 years tops, it's a huge waste in my opinion, that's like buying a car and your not able to add all your accessories and spoilers to get the most out of something that's gonna be with you for a while, that's why i stick with android, blackberry is for businesses hands down, can't argue with that, so most people that get the icrap are just isheep or they refuse to spend money wisely...

IN MY OPINION
[Motorola Photon 4G] Plancy:
NVM, this is going to become a heated debate. Either of these phones being better than one another is subjective, I personally thing, for my needs, iPhone is better, but I got this Motorola Photon for $250 off contract and I'm really enjoying it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
I got a free early upgrade because I had the Evo and kept replacing them. So I know if you are having issues you can get an upgrade that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johnz1:
Just got my phone 4 days ago, I must say that I am totally loving it! I will never buy a different phone apart from a Nexus again. The clean OS is very nice. Anyways, the phone's speaker has a weird subtle buzz/hiss whenever I talk to someone of the phone or when the phone is dialing. It's pretty faint, but I can definitely notice it. I was wondering if any of you guys have this, it makes the call quality sort of... weird? I don't know how to else to put it. I was wondering if any of you guys have this as well. Also, do you guys think it is worth going in for an exchange? I have the Best Buy insurance plan. One little thing too, I have a small piece of lint underneath my camera lens. I got so scared it was a scratch that I put on magnifying lens and checked it under light. It's definitely beneath the glass. :( My luck :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
I don't have this hissing sound. It might be a software problem, in which case, it can be fixed by flashing new ROM/Kernel. However, you shouldn't have to do that and coupled with the lint behind the camera lens, and the fact that you are under warranty/insurance, then definitely go and exchange it for a new one, and give the reasons. If they give you troube then tell them you want to return it and get a refund.

I don't know where you are, but in Europe, you don't even have to give a reason why you want to return the product, within a two week period.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] fez1782:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Well, is your phone on stand by a lot? Do you use your phone at all? How long does your battery last regularly? Those are all factors.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] fez1782:
ok i just realised what the cell standby is. stupid me. yeah 3g is always on so that explains that.

but is there a way to decrease the phone idle. is that when im not using it and its just lying there?

just want to know with the tweaks i'm using if the stats are normalish for an average day. bit of internet here, phone calls ect no games tho.

thanks

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bakuron:
In answer to the original question I would say 'yes, because it sounds like you are in a weak(ish) signal area, and/or possibly keeping 3G on the whole time.'

Basically the cell-standby will be influenced by the degree to which your data connection is straining for coverage.

You might best be served by trying to find an app or tweak that switches 3G off whenever you aren't using it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:

In the previous fw when clicking the low/auto brightness widget icon it resulted in either lowest value or an automatically determined one (based on environmental light?).

After flailing through a thunderstorm, I've recently ordered a Plantronics UP370SL "Rugged" Headset (they seemed to be on discount), but I'm really surprised that there were only one or two options I could find for waterproof headsets. I'd have thought such things were in higher demand; don't people go out in the rain anymore?

So I thought I'd ask if there are any waterproof aficionados out there.. What's the best waterproof headset that you know of?
