[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
I am currently looking and picking up one of these tablets, because I need a tablet + phone. I currently have the value plan that includes Talk+Text+2GB. I've read issues that some others have run across, saying that T-Mobile won't let them use a normal phone sim, and are requiring that you get a tablet plan (which I don't need or want). Is this true? How many folks are running fine on just a regular T-Mo phone + data SIM plan?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
I'm having a hard time believing that no one else is using this device as a phone/tablet and can verify what plan works...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
Seriously, if I buy an HTC Flyer on ebay, install LeeDroid on it for phone, and pop my SIM (Value 500 mins+text+2GB) in, will voice/text/data all work fine?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kaijura:
Most of the people on here with Flyers are USA wifi-only, my impression being here for awhile.

There are more 3G flyers outside the USA. There's a guide on the flyer section to getting phone working but since I don't have a flyer, I cannot verify that for you.

Keep in mind that there is no earpiece on these tablets. You have to either use the speaker or get a bluetooth device.

With the view I also believe it's possible as well, but you may have to either do some workaround with sprint or go with boost. Just read the development threads.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
Thanks! And yes I'm aware there's no earpiece, I plan on using only bluetooth. I would imagine, and from the small amount of research I've done, that with an international device (non T-Mobile branded) that the IMEI will not be in T-Mobiles network/database so the device should work just like a phone works, as it would show up as just a generic phone device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jsimonson0:
I have the tablet for use as a phone while traveling. Just ask them for a PAYG sim card with voice and data enabled. I have 1 SIM that's data-only, and that works great. I just acquired a SIM that's voice and data, $3/day and it works great as well. T-Mobile service, just refll as needed. When I travel I plan to get a prepaid SIM and load it with ~$50 of service, pop it in, and call it a day.

You could also keep the Flyer 3g GB stock, root it, and follow the directons for enabling voice calls. You get BT use like that too, as I recall. I've accepted that I need to use the speakerphone if Lee doesn't get BT working on the honeycomb build.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
Bluetooth doesn't work on the Leedroid ROM? Ugh

I'm assuming since it works fine with prepaid that it'll work fine with my value plan, I can't really change yet since I'm still under contract, and actually really enjoy the value plan since it's a great deal for what you get.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jsimonson0:
BT doesn't work for *phone calls* on Lee's ROM. HC was never designed to be used on phones, only tablets. The fact that Lee got phone calls working at all is amazing in and of itself.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] handisnacks:
Sure enough. Does it work with wired headsets?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jsimonson0:
I believe it does; I don't know where any of my wired phone headsets are to try. The issue Lee is having is with the BT stack that shipped with HC (since it was never intended for phones, it's being colicky when a phone call is established). I think he's even tried the GB BT stack and started having better luck.

But again, GB works great for calls, BT and all, since GB was intended to be used on a phone. If phone calls are truly important, stick with GB (with or without Lee's ROM) until he gets this worked out or until ICS is fully functional on the Flyer.

Just my $.02 worth, YMMV...

Friends,

I thought I should share this review video I came across. I have gone through so many galaxy note reviews, but this has been straight up the best. Really feel connected, and I think a lot of the galaxy note current users who love the phone would connect with the review a lot.. and those who are still thinking of buying a Note, definitely check it out.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] HasC:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] r3dcruz:
Interesting. I've come to the stage with the SGS2 where I need to gift it to my partner & get a new phone, it being a bit small now it seems to me. I've wondered about the SGS3 but that may not be a lot bigger, 4.65 rumor? So bottom line, the Note is really OK for everyday use?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] androidindian:
The note is just brilliant.. I'm thanking myself I got such a beast... Absolutely practical and fantastic for everyday use
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
The Note is just awesome.. i was going to buy one when i received an email about a month ago saying that i won one... for free.. now imagine what it is to have a beautifull phone, which makes everyone jealous, and you didnt had to pay nothing for it? Ehheh

I do advice everyone to buy one!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] FRlTZ:
the Note is supreme, the one to rule them all...The only thing I can see missing is IR port, so it could be used as a TV remote, then it would have been the complete phone..the ultimate..

Ericsson P800 had everything, it was supreme...crappy screen and touch function, but not far from the best.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Colingajewski:
A great review, and he's very entertaining! I agree with him about the size and power of the note making it more than a phone. Any future upgrade will have to be to something very similar to my note.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] neonsector:
I felt exactly the same way, I didn't want anything to do with it when I heard about it but a few weeks later I walked in the att store, bought it, then after a couple days I started to appreciate it more.

on the third day I picked up my 4s to get a note out of it and I realized that it looked pathetic, I didnt understand how I used it and the rest of the iphones since '07.

I am very happy with the note and I cant see myself going back to an iphone unless it has a 5" plus screen.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mufakir:
Hi,

I'm using CheckROM V6. When I install it, the sound is perfect. It's loud, crisp and clear. For all apps, the downloaded ones and the system installed ones. But then suddenly the volume just dies down completely. I can still hear everything but it's really low. The same volume that was pretty high just a minute ago is now very low. and I don't get what's causing that. I uninstalled all apps that I had installed since my last working check of the volume issue but no go.

Does anyone know what's going on? :/ I've even re-installed the ROM and the problem remains the same.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mufakir:
never mind. i just realized that i'm lord of the dumb asses. i had played around with my stupid equalizer app a while ago and for some reason it kicked in and reduced the volume. all is well. just feeling stupido.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] micheallee:
Hi. I am new member here.

About two weeks ago(Feb 25), I purchased TFP from office depot.

I am long time iPhone/iPad user but I wanted trying Android Tablet. I choose TFP because it has best spec, and ICS.

But now I realized that I am more comfortable with iOS.

My question is what's fare value of my two weeks old TFP with keyboard. It is gray model. I tried to return to Office Depot, but they are not allow me to return it. Exchange only.

I paid $499 + $149 + Tax. I think I should ask $550 on eBay. Do you think that is fare value of mine? Any comment will be helpful to me. I am very new on eBay.

Thank you.

[Android Apps and Games] tcgtsg:
HOTDOG Studios, the South Korean development studio behind such iOS hits as Ready Action! and Bugs Wars, has just released a teaser trailer for their next project called, 'Fluffy Diver'

Let me briefly explain our 'Fluffy Diver' game. (which is due for release sometime in late October)

A Fantastic Journey of Harp Seals! Please, find out a Paradise for Harp Seals!

Harp Seals who have fluffy fur is not good for swimming yet.

Help the Harp Seals to be great divers.

'Fluffy Dvier's control is very simple. That can be easily adjusted to the tap.

Tap to sink down in the water

Tap to dive out of water

Game Tip

1. Harp seals have to eat the shell so not hungry.

2. When you go to avoid the rocks, then you will get higher scores.

3. Items types

- Shell : fills you hungry gauge.

- Big Shell : fills you bigger hungry gauge.

- Rainbow : Harp Seals get additional bonus score.

- Magnet : makes harp seals eat items from the distance.

# Save the Harp Seals!

We'll donate from the game proceeds to Animal protection organization 'KAWA' for Half Seals who were being brutally slaughtered because of fur-coats

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hk_aquarius:
Guys, I am new to this forum and I start playing around with custom kernels and roms for my X8 these days. In major, I stick with MiniCM7 and 2 great kernels, nAa-11 and Alfs-8 and both of them are great! Thanks to nobodyAtall, alfsamsung and also djnilse. Now I got a dilemma when finalizing...

The performance of Alfs-8 for MiniCM7 is great but it has a tiny little issue, which cannot "screen off" when making a call. (this is due to CM7, not Alfs-8 in fact) You have to be very careful not to touch the screen or you might cut the phone call... or something unexpected.

nAa-11 is very stable with everything's OK (of coz nAa fixes screen-off issue of CM7). This is my kick-start kernel when setting mod rom on my x8, it is just greatly stable with all functions there!

I should post this onto alfsamsung and djnilse's thread tho I am still restricted by the 10 post rule.. Anyway, what's your choice and recommendation?

Hi,

I'm currently running the Paradox ROM on the SGH-T989. Now, with ICS around the corner , I'd like to know how I can revert to the official ROM.

I've already taken a backup of the original stock ROM using the Clockwork Recovery mod. I'd appreciate it if someone could post an idiot's guide on upgrading to ICS from a custom ROM.

Thanks!

Flash it like any other rom (and specified kernal if there is one) would be my guess.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Tachyon1986:
An engadget article. It's being rolled out for the normal SGS-II in Europe. I can't post the links until I'm 8 posts old , so here's the quoted text from the article.

I'm not familiar with how long the update would take to reach Carriers though. Anyway , I'm looking for a solution on how to upgrade when the update would come.

EDIT : Oops , someone beat me to it. I was referring to the international SGS-II. I'm not sure how long it would take to reach T-mobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] }{Alienz}{:
I'm sick of the same thing being covered 20 times every day.

The international Galaxy S2 has NOTHING to do with our phone. Yes the name is the same but the insides of the phone are all different. They might as well have called our phone something completely different as to not confuse people.

Nothing from the I9100 will be usable for us. Nothing. Hence, I reiterate my previous statement: We are not seeing ICS for some months to come. Sad I know.

The real frustration with this site is that people come here looking for more information and get greeted with condescending dickishness. Those guys posting about how awful it is to have to read threads asking about the update knew fully well what this thread was when they chose to come here.

I don't see how people can be so unaware of common sense that they would be surprised that a phone called the Samsung Galaxy S II getting the ICS update might confuse people who own a phone called the Samsung Galaxy S II into thinking they are getting an update to ICS.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PrinceFX:
By looking at the history, you can tell how long it usually takes for Samsung to deliver an update for carrier phones. As far as I can remember, for the T-Mo Galaxy S, it took them about 5 months to update to 2.2 AFTER the International Galaxy S received 2.2. This was about a month after google rolled out 2.3 via Nexus S.

The reason for the delay is because every carrier wants Samsung (and other manufacturers) to ensure that their bloatware works fine on their updated versions. And no matter how good Samsung's Hardware is, their software division is freaking slow!

So good luck waiting for 4.0. My guess is that it will be out by May/June/July/August. :rolleyes:

I was fully aware that the "When is ICS going to arrive for T-mobile??!!" has been asked a hundred times, which is why I only asked HOW to update.

Thanks for the tip. I guess it should work like the way we flash other ROMS.

Thanks , I'm sure that advice will be made a sticky.

is it me or are more and more XDA n00bs taking things to seriously (not referring to the OP)

Well if ICS does come for our device in about 6 months.. you can always ODIN back to stock (check allgamers stickies) and wait for an OTA update, but you might have to wait for someone to exploit root access for 4.0... sooo i would wait until a dev creates a rooted stock ROM of 4.0.
