Same story with the GT-I9100M; identical hardware, with Bell's garbage firmware, still stuck at 2.3.3

I have Bell I9100M and I9250 (presumably M). The I9100M ran the Bell firmware for a month... I9250 ran 4.0.1 for 20 minutes.

Galaxy Nexus Models Revisited

OK now I don't know what to think. I just went back to Fido and bought a Galaxy Nexus. The model I received is i9250T! When the same store showed me one yesterday it was a i9250M. Is there any way to tell which frequencies are supported by the phone that I received?

Nothing to worry about... all 9250's regardless of the letter distinction are Pentabands. Works on any GSM network worldwide.

hey guys so i got some dust or lint or something stuck in between the screen and the bezel on my TMO SGS II and its irritating the hell out of me. does anyone know how i can clean it out?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
That happened to me a while ago, it was a piece of bread. When I tried to take it out all that did was push it in deeper (thats what she said). In the end I used my fingernail and that seemed to do it. If whatever is in your is lodged in deep, I would suggest using a thin knife and run it in between the bezel and the digitizer with enough pressure to get the stuff out.

San Francisco started supporting paybyphone.com for paying for the parking meters. The meters supposedly have an NFC sticker on them for easily pulling up the meter location in the android app.. but I can't get it to work. I'm tapping the NFC sticker on the meters with the back of my phone, but nothing happens..

More details here - they list Galaxy Nexus as one of the supported phones for NFC -

http://paybyphone.com/san-fran-nfc/

Anyone in the area that's tried this? Not sure why it's not working.. Google wallet works fine for me so I know my NFC works..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iakamand:
Yes i tried this here in SF and no luck. it seems the meters are not equipped with the NFC chip yet. but i saved my self at least $400 worth of tickets with this app. hehe

edit: I guess by looking at the Paybyphone.com site it seems that it has NFC chip/ Tag. i know for the fact that all the meters i've tried to NFC don't work.

yep; exactly... supposed to work, but doesn't.. weird..

I presume it's a problem on the application side. Looking at the permissions, the NFC permission is not present.

Hello

Thread for future

Please do not reply now wait for the final flag

I managed to make a full working rom with each and every thing working on this rom its a stock rom no adjustments with kernel .. but mixed firmware and all things with tj_style rc3 rom. basically my main focus was to get everything working so do i got except vibration on incoming message though it works well for facebook message or what's app message but not working for messages ..

I am working on to make my own home made launcher and also the icon set . when i m done with my other work i will concentrate on to the rom and will finalize my first launcher application .. then i will launch this rom

i have been using this rom for the last two weeks very stable not a single reboot battery life awesome with the stock kernel so far ... stands for 1 day with my uses ...

Reserving place for future and also wanted to let people know my plans ;)

You can comment here for the specialized needs with the rom,

i will name it people's rom just say here what you need i will make my efforts to make it possible with this device.

[Huawei Ideos X6] kshitij_bhatt:
yes i m using the pack for theme provided by a member

but the very main problem due to which i m not launching is the hd playback it sucks with the stock kernel and i just cant make my kernel work with any other hardware so i am waiting for kernel experts to come up

even the tj_style kernel has some bugs like camera freeze and video not recording with this rom so i am not launching it ..

if we get a newer overclocked kernel it would be great ..

if i get the hd video playback like earlier versions i will release this rom but need some help but all kernel developers are on other jobs.

[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] RodrigoOgasawara:
I think compcache is not the same as swap,when you use it you will need to use more CPU to deal with the virtual RAM,On swap you will have a bigger Ram size and no need to use CPU for it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fishingfon:
Hi all, i recently flashed a custom rom to my " vodaphone australia samsung galaxy S2 I9100T" but the rom kept freezing, so i flashed a stock samsung rom ( one without all the vodaphone rubbish) but now i am getting very slow 3G speeds, and the signal qulity keeps jumpingup and down.

I have spent 2 days looking for a working download link for a different modem, but they all seem to be down.

Can someone please tell me where i can find a working download link??

I am currently using the phone on the optus network. So i would need a modem that would work on it.

And i have a nadroid backup of the original vodaphone rom, so is the anyway i can copy the modem out of it and then reflash it using odin or cwm???

Thanks in advance for any help you can give

Cheers corey

It just occurs to me on such a regular basis, that when I pick my phone up, it's a perfect example of engineered quality. I wouldn't change anything about this phone. It's seriously perfect.

My only problem now is that I just get bored with things and probably am getting thirsty for a new, sleeker model. But seriously, does anybody feel like the SPH-D700 didn't get the glory it deserved?
[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
I find the hardware to be quite good (although by the standards of today, I wouldn't mind a faster processor), but I find the software to be buggy and incomplete at best (EVEN EL30), which is sad considering how many chances that they had to make this a good device. Stuff like the GPS and other assorted issues makes me really shake my head in disappointment with Samsung.

Considering it was supposed to be a Bada device, I think the devs had to get to the Android party late. I'd expect that translating the software to the hardware was the original issue but it seems to be more under control and may have lead to extended life for the device.

It was much faster than the evo. I loved my Epic. Perhaps the lack of froyo and gb is what made the Epic so much fun. Literally the only thing I would've changed is the responsiveness of the captivate buttons.

What he said

Sent from my CM7.2 OG Epic
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
I wasn't impressed with it to be honest. I felt like the Nexus S was a little more polished and "tighter".

My Epic had a horrible hinge on the keyboard (I had 2 epics that actually ended up with failing hinges) and it felt loose. The screen actually visibly rocked when you pressed on different corners and it honestly felt cheap and broken.

The screen was top notch though.

I by far prefer a more solid feel to my phone though. The Desire Z that my coworker has is leaps and bounds ahead of the Epic as far as build quality for a hinged device and any candy-bar style phone beats the epic in build quality, including all of it's less-featured brothers, both international and domestic.

I feel like it was over-hyped for the product that it was. I do applaud them for fixing the GPS much better than the Vibrant or Captivate but I think overall the Captivate or the Nexus S felt like they had a bit more design work upfront.
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
Over hyped?

Where was I?

Sent from my CM7.2 OG Epic
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Good question...

They (every carrier, the big 4) made a big deal about the fact that the Galaxy S series was coming to America. The Epic was the first in a long time, and last flagship phone for Sprint that sported a keyboard.

It was hyped as being the fastest performing, best screen, FFC, slider monster of a phone. It even sold for $50 more than most phones on a new contract and people gobbled it up even at it's slightly bloated price.

Tech blogs (and most users here) claimed it was the best Galaxy S out of the American variants and better than the international depending on whether or not you liked soft-touch backs and keyboards.

I'll admit, the soft-touch plastic is awesome on the Epic 4g. I ended up sanding my NS to mimic that feel.

But overall in the grand scheme of things I found my hinge to feel cheap, the plastic "chrome" ring to be cheap and easily damaged. Compare that to a Blackberry Bold 9930 or an iPhone (I hate apply by the way) which actually use nice brushed aluminum and it feels cheap. My back cover creaked because it didn't fit snug and my screen damaged the keys underneath because the hinge was poorly made.

It was a good product, and certainly the best on Sprint... that is until the NS came along and gave the Galaxy S line a proper implementation on that network.

[Epic 4G General] pvtjoker42:
As far as the "cheap" feel, i can't agree with you there.. i've dropped my epic a couple times and only have a minor ding in the plastic.. the same can't be said of the iphone work provides me with that i dropped once, and caught on my foot (didn't even hit the ground/floor) and wouldn't work for days. Let alone all of my friends that have barely dropped their iphones and shatter their screens/glass.

Like others, I came from the moment, and haven't looked back since. Let alone given many other phones a 2nd glance once i realize there's no hw keyboard. sure i'd kill to have the galaxy nexus on sprint.. but only if it has a keyboard (then i'll kill twice! :cool:) aside from the fact we all know that won't happen.. and I love CM9.. once there are more upstream changes that come down our epics are just gonna keep getting better.
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
It wasn't "hyped" it truly was the best performing having a FFC, and a full keyboard. also it wasn't advertised nearly as much(or at all for that matter since I didn't know about the GS line until I bought this) as the EVO. As for the rest of your post its all opinion. I hate candy bar phones. I was originally going to the EVO myself but jumped on the Epic for the keyboard. I also love the soft touch of the Epic's body.

[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
That's interesting. my problem came from the general "fit" of the phone. The plastic on both of mine creaked and felt flimsy. "loose"really is the best way to describe both of my epics. I can't speak to their durability when dropped though. I only dropped it once in 9 months and that was from a car when I was getting in, so maybe two and a half feet?

I really think if it weren't for the poor hinge I wouldn't hate Kb sliders so much... And the dropped keys...

I do have to say the game gripper was just about the coolest thing ever with an emulator running... My only regret with a candy bar style phone
