Ok, quest continues...

I tested 823 bb - same thing...

Yesterday my another buddy got used LG P925 (3D) and asked me to root it. So I did.

And when I tested his his phone with my sim at the same spot - I had 4G symbol and Speedtest showed ping around 150 and download speed around 2000 kbs. My LG P990 is on Edge and has ping close to 1000 speeds around 200... WTF?

Here the only difference :

my phone is from UK and his is specifically Canadian (we are in Canada ).

But I checked LG UK site and it says that phone has 850-900-1800-1900 bands, exactly as my buddies.

My buddies P925 says UMTS network, while mine only HSPA... Does it makr a difference?

I really like my phone but being on Edge kills me... I guess I will return this phone and try to find used Canadian one...

Any ideas?

ADDED: I read and read and read and finally read about European phones not having 850 frequency enabled... I guess this is my case - my phone is from Europe and buddies - Canadian. So I found how to get to hidden menu on stock ROM and modify preffered frequencies. But is there any way to get there in CM7? Ideas ???

ADDED 2: ok, looks like European o2x doesn't have WCDMA850 enabled... Here my experiment:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23588400&postcount=16

Is there any way to enable WCDMA850 band through some menu? (I've read that Samsung has such feature)
[LG Optimus 2x] Goldenmeadow:
Thread can be closed...

Hi everybody!

I think thread should be closed - I find the answer.

This European phone doesn't support WCDMA850, only 900, 1900 and 2100. So in my case in the little Ontario town I didn't have 3G connection because Rogers (provides) has only CDMA850 band for 3G...

Only big cities have 3G in WCDMA1900 band...

Just all of you know.

With best regards!
[Networking] Gahh Its Lee:
I know it only works for certain phones can someone tell me how to do it and how it works? My friend is on at&t and wants to use this plan.
[Networking] Scrawson:
AT&T maintains an IMEI database. If the IMEI of your phone is associated with a "smart" phone, it will automatically bump you to a "smart" phone plan. If your phone is AT&T branded, it will most likely be in their database. If you get a non-AT&T branded phone, there's a good chance it will not be recognized.
[Networking] Naria9:
If you want specifics, your friend needs to have a dumbphone officially registered as their phone on AT&Ts servers. Then swap the SIM in to the smartphone they want to use, and sign up for the cheap unlimited data plan.

And there you go.

Been doing it for a while on my Galaxy S i9000 now.

Hey you guys, I wanted to ask if we can get this here on our EVO 3D's ICS ROM's

I would like for it to be on AOKP or Ice or CM9 (AOKP Would be awesome!) Il Duce, thanks man for all the help you've given to me via P.M, I hope you can port this for us...

Live long and prosper, flooppoolf out.

:D
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
I'll respond since you called me out lol. I don't intend to do any mods for ICS roms, I need a camera ALL the time (have a 7wk old daughter). Also, I have a 7wk old daughter, so my time is limited (and I devote it to modding the ROMs I run, like gb miui, gb cm, sense 3.0, etc.) - it's kinda cool, but honestly I like the stock ICS lock the way it is lol.
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
So I was trying to tweak some boot animations and they weren't showing... now, I tried to go back to my original bootanimation.zip, and it's not showing either....

Should I need to clear my cache or something? I know the file I have loaded now was fine, and the permissions are correct... but now it's not displaying...

Any ideas?
[Nook Color General] GMPOWER:
You need to follow the directions, HERE. The most important part is to NOT COMPRESS the zip file. If using 7-zip, set the compression level to "store." If you compress the zip file, you end up with you have now, a boot animation that does not show.
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
haha good to know.

I just kept leaving 7zip at it's default settings. Doesn't really explain why the original zip that worked stopped working though.

I'll give it a try with 7zip set to store.

Thanks :)
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
Well, not compressing it definitely worked...

http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/q232f/created_a_bootanimation_for_cyanogenmod9_what_do/

I took the one located here, and resized it for the NC.

I didn't bother making it flashable, but just drop it into /system/media and change permissions to rw-r--r-- and it should be fine

Actually... The upload keeps failing.... not sure why though, it doesnt exceed the file size.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1659941/bootanimation.zip

Here's a link to it on my dropbox though.
[Nook Color General] mateorod:
Try putting the new boot animation zip in data/local. That way you won't need to backup the original that is in system/media in case you want it back. Data/local simply preempts the one that is in media upon flash.

Also, if you decide you like the newer animation, then you won't have to replace it every time you flash an update, as data isn't touched by any of the cache wipes or flashes.
[Nook Color General] Yoinx:
Thanks man, that's really good to know.

I just downloaded the update it fires through the unzipping process, then boots into I am assuming some sort of stock recovery. But then I get the red explanation point on the bee. I waited about ten minutes and I hit the power button. It boots up and tells me update failed. Do I need to unrooted before doing the update? Thank you in advance!
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
Why you telling you received ics update? Upload the update for us and let see if it is ics , I think isn't .
[Acer Iconia A500] skatin707:
Man that would be nice.
[Acer Iconia A500] greeky510:
I have never performed an update on my a500 but I would assume that being rooted would affect the update process. Try downloading OTA keeper from the market. It creates a backup of the root and temporary unroots the device. After the update run the app and restore root.
[Acer Iconia A500] Kinz1980:
I an not sure how to upload the update. I will try the other suggestion that was made. I didn't think the updates would happen this early but it said 4.010.00. I will do my best to update this if this is ics?

what version of android is running on your tablet? 3.0.1 or 3.2.1?
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
I'm betting this is just one of Acers 3.2.1 updates. People are always getting confused with their version numbers.
[Acer Iconia A500] ve4grm:
Sorry to say, but you're being misled by the "Build Number" rather than the OS version. The same happened to me in November.

I have a Gateway tablet (variant of the a500). When I first got it, it upgraded itself to "Build 4.010.02". I was excited, as you are, but it was just the Honeycomb 3.2 upgrade, nothing more.

Again, sorry. It's not here yet. I wish Acer would just list the OS version when telling you you have a system update.
[Acer Iconia A500] soxrocker:
ve4grm is right......it's Honeycomb not ICS.....woulda been nice had it been though...
[Acer Iconia A500] Kinz1980:
Dang, well thanks for setting me straight. I still wonder though will I have issues doing the update from my stock ROM?
[Acer Iconia A500] steveja:
kinz - i was in the same position as you. that build number really annoying!

But i believe ICS from Acer stock would have build number 7 prefix.

Seido makes this dock that is made to work with their active series of cases, which is definitely just as bulky, if not bulkier than the Speck Candyshell, so it should work just fine. It's a bit spendy, and only works with portrait mode, but it's still a viable option:

[General Questions and Answers] DrDubzz:
As I'm due for an upgrade soon I'm researching upcoming options. I'm really liking the idea of the HTC One X... however, it doesn't have a removable battery. With as many times as I've bricked my captivate, I don't know how I would have fixed it without being able to remove the battery

One of the reasons I don't want an iPhone is for that very reason, I hate being limited to one battery or not being able to pop it out if needed.

You guys think there's any real reason for concern? It seems more phones are coming out this way, it makes for a more attractive, maybe even sturdy, design... but I don't know if I care that much

[General Questions and Answers] MissionImprobable:
Phones like that have hard key resets. Actually even those with removable batts have hard resets with the right button press. The main issue with a non-removable battery besides resets is if it just doesn't have enough capacity cause then you're just in the dead zone =p
[General Questions and Answers] matejdro:
You would think that they would at least include better battery. Razr maxx have 3300mah and it is not much more bulkier, so I think at least 2000mah should not be very hard to achieve.

Removable Battery

From my limited experiance an Android phone with a non-removable battery wouldn't be for me. If you want to experiment with roms and kernels, pulling the battery is a must. Also it's hard to put in a higher amp battery or install a replacement.

[General Questions and Answers] BasedSatan:
I know the iphone has a feature that if it freezes, you hold the home and sleep button until it turns off (this was present in the original and iphone 3g as far as i know). That simulates a battery pull. But if i was thinking of buying a new android phone and its battery didn't pop out, it would be a deal breaker.

If you need to return to stock we have full ability to do so all the way back to S-ON. I would wait on that to see what the new owner would want to do, since S-OFF is currently not possible if S-ON from the most recent software update.

It being S-OFF capable is an asset to anyone who wants to mod it that you could lose by updating the software and going S-ON, but you have options depending on what the buyer wants.
