Wow my phone use to get up to like 120 degrees when running ics roms. now the thing never get over 95 degrees. :confused:
[HTC Rezound] B-Nice_88:
what roms that are currently out now can be overclocked??
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
On ICS currently, most every ROM comes with stock kernels with no OC afaik. The only OC kernel compatible with ICS ROMs and currently available is SebastianFM's kernel. You can flash that after installing the ROM.

There's the actual ATT Link :)

Some Vivid users were able to dial *#*#682#*#* to get the update (force), but it doesn't appear to work. Just a couple of months, then :(

EDIT;

Does anyone with stock want to try dialing that above code and accessing "Software Update"?

I think you reflash the stock ROM, not sure where you can find that though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
Hi.

Just making sure. Anything I need to check in terms of stolen/reported or whatnot?

I am about to buy one, so just asking for your advice

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kr3w1337:
Bring your SIM card and a sd card. Make a phone call then save something on the sd card.

If he let's you, download a benchmark app and check if the reported specs match to see if it's a fake or not.

At this point you've checked whether the phone is banned, has a working sd card slot and isn't fake. The only thing left is cosmetic damage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
Thanks so much (i thanked u)!!!

I would never in a million years think it could be a fake one.....

wow!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icepally:
You can also if they're willing to, meet at a t-mo store to have them check the ESN for a stolen phone or not
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] theghazi:
You can't check if the phone is banned. I just lost 450 dollars as I bought s2 from Cl. I used the phone for 2 months and it quit working. I called T-Mobile and they told me it was reported lost or stolen. Imei got banned.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
That's horrible! I am surprised that they can even do that (t-mobile, i mean)! But how is the IMEI related to their ability to shut it down? does the phone transmits this info to their servers? I was under the impression that only the CDMA phones can do that....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icepally:
If your sim card on their network is in a phone, that phone has a specific number that is transmitted as your using the phone. If the number comes up as stolen or otherwise the network can stop that specific numbered phone from accessing the network.

Hence my above post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
I see.

But that means EVERY buyer is in risk!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] theghazi:
That is what I though that only cdma phones. But since they signed the contract to get these phones. If they break the contract and don't pay their bills. They banned the imei number. The phone will not get any signal and it would say can't register to network. Same things happens when you claim the phone as lost or stolen. My first hand experience.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
So how can one be protected?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icepally:
You can either have the ESN checked on the phone before making any final deals, buy brand new phones, or buy straight from the carrier or phone manufacture.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
If I had the money :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
I actually think that rep you talked to told you the wrong information. I highly doubt that the original owner could report a stolen phone that he has not used under his account after 2 months, I've played with a friend's t-mobile agents account and the IMEI of every phone you ever used is listed including the date used. It is most likely that asurion or t-mobile will not agree to do a insurance claim on a phone that he or she has not used for 2 months.

I actually believe that the original owner had a subsidized phone and stopped paying for it after he sold it to you, t-mobile probably warned him the first month and ended up banning the imei the 2nd month.

Now I am wondering myself, I thought T-mobile/asurion only bans a phone if it was reported STOLEN not LOST. Can someone clarify this for me? I use to buy a lot of phones off CL even though I bet many are reported "lost" and people filed insurance claims for them; however, I have yet to have a phone become "banned." Well I haven't bought any phones off CL since January.... sooo i guess things might have changed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kylephillips66:
Phones can honestly be blocked for any reason, I usually have heard of them for non payment on the device or being stolen at the time of delivery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] benyben123:
If it was indeed blocked, is that the final story for the device? That's it? Dead? Gone? Nothing to do about it? Can't one unlock it, use it with a different number of the same carrier (tmobile)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] markusf21:
You could unlock the sim and go to at&t

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ceejay83:
you can get scammed with brand new phones too. there's the "equipment installment plan" with tmobile. the way the scam works is to put a loan out on a phone, then don't pay the monthly payments.the scammer sells the phone, and then tmobile bans that phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] willywonka84:
I respectfully have to disagree with you. I am a RSA with T-Mobile USA and the way the payment plan or the "equipment installment plan" works is that it is on your account so if your account gets cancelled due to non-payment it's gets charged off to your account including the ETF. One thing T-Mobile cannot do is ban your IMEI because it is unlawful, it is not different then you buying clothes on your macy's card and then not paying for it and them coming into your place to confiscate your clothes. the only time T-mobile will ban a IMEI is A. when it is stolen from a store i.e Demo phones or missing merchandise. or B customer calling in to report the phone missing. in the case where the gentleman stated his phone got banned after 2 months isn't because of a late insurance claim but much more likely due to a missing phone coming up in the quarterly inventory. the best way to ensure you are getting a legitimate deal is by calling 611 from your phone during the purchase and verifying the IMEI and then asking the rep to memo it in your account so if in the future the phone is reported missing the burden is on T-mobile and not you. I hope this helps you all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
interesting stuff, but there were a couple cases where reps told the customer that the phone is blocked because the owner stopped paying for the phone. I think there are a couple stories of that floating around this subforum.

But okay can you elaborate more on what you mean by the missing phone coming up in the quarterly inventory?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icenight89:
also make sure u plug the phone in and make sure it charges, bring a laptop and usb cable if u can too. If the microusb port doesn't work, u can't charge, root, or do anything else.

Another thing is after pressing many times quickly on Android Version in About Phone menu in Settings an image pops up!! Wtf are these zombies holding mobile phones?? Using stock LC1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Rayan:
Under ICS, instead of Zombie Androids you get to see a lonely ICS Android (over your current wallpaper) and if you keep your fingers on top of it it will grow and then reveal an animated sequence of Android invasión! :-)

These are called "easter eggs" by the way... ;-)

[HTC Sensation] GhostZini:
Just got a sensation and want to root and rom. Not sure which way to go.
[HTC Sensation] steini81:
What do you want AOSP, CM9 or Sense 3.6 or 4?

CM9 and AOSP you should go to modaco.com and search for TripNRaveR's Roms.

If you want Sense you should try InsertCoin here on XDA.

[HTC Sensation] xHighAlert:
I just got mine about three days ago.

Coming from a Galaxy, EVERYTHING about HTC sense makes me sick to my stomach.

Went with the one with most views I saw - AndroidRevolutionHD, and went through the INSANE process of going from stock to ICS.

Now running 1.7GHz, replaced HTC sense with the AOSP themes.

Only bugs I see so far are htc.bg crashing, messaging app getting rather wonky with multiple texts, and the music controls sticking on the lockscreen after Google Music closes. Also no MMS at home for me. No signal, Wifi calling only, but the AOSP app doesnt support that. Boohoo.

So that's my reccomendation.
[HTC Sensation] steini81:
Why use a Sense Rom and replace it with AOSP theme and launcher??

Flash an AOSP or CM9 Rom if you dont like Sense.

Best ones to find on modaco.com by Trip.

Sent from my ICS Sensation powered by TripNRaVeR
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
No video camera or bluetooth is a pretty good reason. And honestly, the Sense to AOSP roms aren't noticably slower than straight up AOSP.
[HTC Sensation] xHighAlert:
Cause I never thought to look anywhere else for ROMs but here.

Will take a look. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] Xx12thANG3LxX:
Try prime 3!!!! Great aosp rom!!! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1466917
[HTC Sensation] steini81:
Ah o.k. And no MMS, no Signal and only WiFi calling is so much better?

Didn't try this Rom but if it realy have this bugs its not useable i think.

For most people its more important to make calls than use BT or make videos.

But o.k everybody has their own needs.

Did you ever try One of Trips roms?

Dont think so because than you would not say that there is not much difference in speed between Sense with AOSP theme / launcher and pure AOSP.

Thats no AOSP rom. Its a Sense Rom with most Sense parts removed and some AOSP apps included.

But its still a HTC Sense Rom.

Sent from my ICS Sensation powered by TripNRaVeR
[HTC Sensation] xHighAlert:
Well the only "sense" rom I played with was stock on 2.3 - and in five minutes I knew I hated it.

And actually bluetooth is a must for me. I don't make calls at all, but I use a keyboard and use my phone for writing documents and taking notes.

I'll give Prime a try if these bugs get any more severe. Getting really tired of constantly wiping.
[HTC Sensation] steini81:
Than a tablet may be the better choice for you.

Biger screen to work with and a Keyboard Dock with Touchpad (Asus Transformer).

Also available with 3G module to make calls.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
wondering if i can get any help around here. One day my sidekick suddenly stopped working. Meaning no signal or service of any. I can log onto wifi and still use the internet but i cant make text messages, calls, ect. I rooted it and flashed Glorious Overdose, but the problem is still there. I'm with tmobile and idk why this doesnt work. It reads the SIM card. because when i take it out it has that sign at the top of the screen saying "insert SIM". anyone know what i can do? i know its not my SIM card because it works with other phones. its something with this phone.

ok.. so the problem is.... i bought the phone off someone on craigslist. and the phone worked for 5 months. then it finallly locked up. ^^^^ so i called tmobile and they said that the person that i bought the phone off of did not pay for their first month's service so they blocked the phone from tmobile use. so i'm wondering is there anything i can do to make it work for tmobile.... if not. just unlock it and use it for tmobile?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] AndroidBotx:
Your sim may be outdated. What other devices do you have? Is it a 4G Sim card?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
the other phone i was switching over to was a 3g vibrant. And it was working with this SIM a few weeks ago. thats strange
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] GuestK0045:
Maybe. Somene esle is using another of ur sim cards becuase tmobile deactivaes the old ones
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
i was using this phone the whole time with a 3g SIM. And i never had a problem until now. it happened randomly
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
SIMs also tend to burn out/stop working, visit your local tmo store and ask them to take a look at your SIM, they should be able to tell, and if it's burnt out they'll give you a new one. Have you tried this SIM in another phone since it stopped working in this phone?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
yeah. ive used my sim on another phone and it works fine. I tried using my sisters sim card and her husband's and the sidekick still says no service. but on their phone it works fine as well. so its the phone. If i show them the phone wll they say anything though since its rooted.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] craven667:
Go or call tmob they will send a sim free
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
bump/ was not a SIM issue.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
hmm, when T-mobile told you that they blocked the phone from use because of the person's non-paid bill, did they say there was anything you could do to reinstate the phone on their network?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
they said it was blocked from tmobile use until that first month bill is paid.

so that pretty much means wont be able to use ever huh?

i guess when the sk4 was a free phone they got it and resold it, but ended up not paying that bill.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
yeah,that sucks, the person might have agreed to a contract just to get the phone for free, then turn around and sell it. whatever happened, it sounds like maybe the only way to use it on Tmobile is to pay the person's outstanding bill :(

do you have a contract with Tmo? the only other thing i can think of at the moment is unlocking the phone to work with another carrier, like Simple Mobile, or whatever carriers would activate it.

i am definitely not an expert on how these things work, just trying to throw out ideas. i had never really thought about this, i just knew that when a phone is reported stolen, the carrier can block the phone so it can't be used on their network. i bought a Sprint phone off CL once, and i made sure to call Sprint and check the esn # to make the sure the phone was valid or whatever.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xaznxb0ix:
yeah but seeing that the phone is a SIM use, and the phone was working for 5 months till now, i didnt see it as an issue buying off craigslist at the point. I didnt know tmobile was able to block a phone. I mean i can see a reason to them blocking the sim card. But i guess i pretty much have a paper weight since i have a 2 year contract wiht tmobile.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] yogi2010:
i was thinking the same thing, that the block should be against the SIM, not the phone. i guess i would call Tmobile and try to reason with them, and see if they can let you use the damn thing!

hope you figure something out!

Krait s4 IS dual core, compared to the inferior quad core Tegra3...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Yeah I just don't like (personal opinion) Quall and have not for awhile. That and benchmarks don't really show much for everyday use of a phone. Sure the One X looks good but honestly the G2's been great everyday regardless of other speeds in phones.

No, I see that. I just don't understand why you would want to be loyal to a manufacturer. You gain ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Nothing to do with being loyal at all. Every phone I've had till the GS2 was HTC (that I personally owned) But I've used other phones on loan for a few days and just never liked them. I have a unique case where I goto school at a Tech college most of the guys I hang around are phone junkies so we all get to mess with each others phones for days on end. The GS2 was my first Samsung in years and I've been happy with it if the GS3 is worth it right now even with the few issues I'd most likely still get it (if it's worth it)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Just search around there are plenty of threads on how to port the epic touch and other phones to virgin mobile and boost mobile. Process is pretty easy but you need a "donor" phone thats already activated on either of those networks. Also virgin mobile sadly doesnt offer the $25 plans any more. They bumped the price up to $35, but still a good deal. I got lucky to hop on the $25 plan and grand father it over.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
I highly doubt that is it, but I really hope Sammy doesn't go that route and get rid of the capacitive buttons on the GSIII. The persistant on screen buttons are the WORST design decision Google has made with Android and I refuse to buy an Android phone without capacitive buttons. That was literally the primary reason why I didn't like my Gnex. I've got my eye on the HTC One X with that badass S4 Krait in it (smokes the Tegra3, I don't know why people are acting like it's a downgrade), and if the GSIII has no capacitive buttons, then my decision is going to be that much easier.

With the HTC One series, the company is basically revamping their image. You can compare this to Samsung when they started the Galaxy S line. Before the Galaxy S, people would throw up in their mouth a little if you talked about a Samsung android phone (I'm looking at you samsung moment).

HTC is basically cutting down how many phones they're releasing and they're making Sense less intrusive.

Of course, all of this remains to be seen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crimsonred36:
Out of all the things that I want in the GS3, I would just like the option of different colors. I am so sick and tired of having a black phone its ridiculous! I mean sure, they look bad ass.

There's a reason Samsung is selling these phones by the billions, yep cuz they're doing something right. I dunno maybe sprint don't have good coverage in your area, but don't act like any other cell phone provider is any better. Every phone/carrier is gonna have its pros&cons.
