[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rboone18:

I carry that way in house.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MooseV2:
I've recently been experiencing some problems with my phone (Motorola Photon 4G) in which I get full bars but no service. After troubleshooting the problem with a tool called Network Signal Info, I've found that it only appears on a specific tower (I've been keeping track of the CID it provides). Unfortunately, that is the tower closest to where I live and my phone defaults to that one. On any other towers, I get service (I can text, call, etc).

I'm looking for an app that can prevent my phone from registering on these towers (and thus blocking my service).

Any suggestions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MooseV2:
I've been reading into PRLs. Can I do this by creating a custom PRL? I have no idea how to do this for my phone, though.
[Motorola Droid X2] antp121:
i dont know if anyones talked about this but theres this thing called liquipel (link: http://www.liquipel.com/) they supposedly make you phone almost waterproof. i say almost because in this video (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70RMWiavxj0&list=UUMgCvJ3_QahXgvwj6LjOd-w&index=1&feature=plcp) the guys iphone screen, after being submerged, doesnt work anymore. everything else does though. the water just rolls off, its pretty cool. and for 50-70$ it looks pretty good. you have to send in your phone though but in the long run could potentially save your device!
[Motorola Droid X2] Skelente:
Looks interesting, but not really worth it IMHO. Like the guy in the video said, with the price point it's really only going to be worth it for the accident prone people who have gone through several phones because of water damage. Sure, if you go swimming/surfing a ton and are always forgetting to take your phone out of your pocket, this could be worth it. But if you're more just worried about accidentally spilling something on your phone or something like that, I would think a case with a screencover (like an otterbox or a titan) would more than give you enough time to get the mess cleaned up and prevent the liquid from seeping through too quickly.

BUT, it would be pretty cool to play angry birds or watch netflix in the shower/bath and not have to worry haha.
[Motorola Droid X2] antp121:
yeah same thinking here, but for the same price as a otterbox or titan and no extra bulk, it could be worth it. just my 2 cents. probably wont get this, just trying to help the accident prone section of droid x2 owners :D
[Motorola Droid X2] DDevel:
I would be careful sending your phone in as i notice theY have changed the wording on their website from waterproof to watersafe, so looks like they are trying to step away from claiming waterproofness. Also, did you see the video with Leo Laporte on iPad today? The episode was called iPad Today 91: Track Your Life, Paper app, EyeEm and from 27mins in he takes out a phone treated with Liquipel and tests it on air. At the end of the video he tests the phone again and it is totally broken (go to end of video to see). Also saw on his twitter site that he tried to get it fixed but it suffered water damage and he had to buy a new one.
[Motorola Droid X2] skigill:
Don't think I would try it.
[HTC Sensation] EdTeach1680:
I was wondering if it is possible to re-partition my phone itself for stripped roms to allow more room for apps to be installed on my phone. I remember reading something about this during my g1 days but Google hasn't helped me find reference. Any insight would be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] jab74101:
Are you talking about deleting your old roms from your sd card?
[HTC Sensation] EdTeach1680:
No I'm talking about re-partitioning the phone to allow for more on phone app storage. Say I install the strpt version of opensensation that is only 75mb with strpt gapps at whatever size that is. This leaves open room in the system partition. I want to know if it is possible to resize the phones partitions to allocate more on phone storage for apps.
[HTC Sensation] tingtan:
It is possible but you need to change the Hboot to re-partition and support the new partitions. For instance, HTC Desire has a very small /data partitions there are many custom Hboot to resolve this issue:

[HTC Sensation] EdTeach1680:
Bawls... yeah I found some stuff from firerat that explained exactly what I want to do but its for another device. I'm a pretty smart guy but lack the know how to attack this one, I'm sure with enough motivation I could figure it out but I have no real internet right now to Google tut's. Thanks for the help though.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nokiaqueen:
I tried to pre-order the Nokia Lumia 900 by adding a line to an existing family talk plan, however it would not give me the option to transfer over my current number from another service. Anyone else had this problem?
[Nokia Lumia 900] DanMc85:
not sure, but it can still be done after the fact as long as you keep you current service active. It will cancel when you actually do the transfer.

Call 800-898-7685 once you receive and activate the phone on the "temporary" number they give you and they will change it to your real number.

- Dan
[Nokia Lumia 900] nokiaqueen:
thanks, I'll do just that then :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] jz9833:
I was able to do it. I was asked abut 3 times if I wanted a new number or transfer a line from another service. It was always a really small option but it was at the top of the input information pages.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nokiaqueen:
really? I tried 3 times and I didn't notice any option at all :(
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
This is how I usually do it. Especially with a new phone. They make the new number just go away. Its easier in store. But if you have a different phone number to call on, it works just fine.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nokiaqueen:
I just ordered it today at the store, didn't want to deal with the whole calling and getting my number transferred etc. But appreciate the help.
[Nokia Lumia 900] ontapbjt:
I spent some time on the phone with AT&T reps regarding this same situation. I tried to sign up with Amazon but it would not let me transfer my number. Eventually I ended up speaking to someone in the department that handles the phone number transfers. According to the person that I talked to, because my current number is in a non-AT&T coverage area I would not be able to port my number over. It has something to do with Federal regulations. You may want to check for sure on whether you can transfer yours or not.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
I don't know if I ever heard that before. How would they know where your area was. Why would they care. What are the odds, a company that claims to cover 98% of the USA and you fall in that 2%. Your carrier must be Bob's Phone Service or something, for them to not take your money.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nokiaqueen:
I don't think that's the reason, because I have 2 AT&T stores, both <5 mins from my house. I think it has to do more with some website issue. :confused:

When I went to the store, the Rep told me he'll have my number transferred the day I pick up my lumia 900. (Ordered the cyan one and I'm excited :D )
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
you know, this must be a bad day for me. I read your reply and think you're saying, that's not the reason because you have 2 AT&T stores with in 5 minutes of your house. If that is the reason, I want live by you!! Its a ***** getting old. :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsawlani:
So I just bought the GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus. It is yakju and I am using it with AT&T. No matter how many times I've tried I cannot get the phone to do an OTA update to at least 4.0.2, let alone 4.0.4. So I have a couple questions, keeping in mind that I am not particularly interested in rooting and would rather just do an OTA update.

1. Will the 4.0.2 update eventually come through if I wait? I don't mind waiting, but I don't want to wait indefinitely without making any progress.

2. If I do want to or need to do a manual update, can I go straight from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4?

Like I said, I would prefer to wait for the OTA update as I'm having no issues with 4.0.1 right now.

On a completely unrelated note, I have 14 days to return this phone. If you were me, would you return it and wait for the One X. I like the idea of having a raw android Google phone, but the One X seems attractive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I think you should get an iphone.

iphone. helping computer illiteracy become popular since 2007.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhernand1102:
I received my Nexus about a week ago. Within 5 minutes of turning it on I received the 4.02 OTA update. 10 minutes later I was rooted and running CM9 so I can't say if I would have received the 4.04 OTA update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
get stock images and flash to 4.0.4.

search the forums on how to do that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Then just wait for the OTAs.

There are already lots of spammy nerd bashing threads on this topic. No one can make this decision for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoungAceAtlanta:
You have a few options....

1. Download Factory images for 4.0.4 from Google and use Galaxy Nexus Toolkit to flash (you will lose all your data and pictures, videos, music)

2. Root your phone (you'll still lose your data because you have to unlock your bootloader)

3. Wait for the 4.0.2 update than the 4.0.4 update

Your choice

When you get the HTC One X you gonna be saying how much you wish you had AOSP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Or when Android 5.0, "when will One X be getting Android 5.0?!"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Merio90:
Same Here

I guess were both on the same boat :) Except i am on Tmobile. As soon as i unboxed and setup my Gnex this past friday i was expecting an OTA update to 4.0.4. But appearantly that wasn't the case as i am still stuck on 4.0.1 two days later. I am really hoping i get that OTA soon...there is no way i am rooting ever again. My last phone which was a Samsung Vibrant had a custom ICS rom...everything was well until i was greeted by the deadly "Encryption Unsuccessful" screen not knowing what to do i hit reset phone. 1 min later my phones only use was as a door stop.

I know this may sound kind of silly but maybe we haven't received our updates because its the weekend :). Im waiting till monday to see if i get the OTA update. Hopefully it arrives soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoungAceAtlanta:
Most OTAs roll out in groups. Well at least from the last time I did a OTA .. I guess thats how they still work. Only so many users get them at a time. Not everyone who has a gnex get it at once
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vtrandal:
Now that I see other people having this problem, I think OTA updates for 100% stock Android 4.0.1 Samsung i9250 Galaxy Nexus are just not happening at all for now... (verbiage/garbiage deleted :)

As for my Nexus One(s)... (I'll just say I never saw this happen)

EDIT:

At about 8pm MDT (GMT-06:00) in the US, my i9250 finally updated from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4. I consider this an important validation of the integrity of my device. Earlier today I flashed 4.0.2 but still had to wait.

So clearly there was a period of days (March 30 to April 2 at least) that OTA updates where not happening for the i9250. This was alarming because I've rolled my i9250 back to 100% stock Android 4.0.1 several times after playing with different ROMs. Each time it quickly updated to 4.0.2. This time it took a few days. For a while I was worried my phone had a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] goldlocke:
I just rolled back to a stock ROM 4 days ago.

But did only get 1 OTA update immediately after first boot. The one from ITL41D to ITL41F (4.0.1).

No OTA to 4.0.2 or even 4.0.4 yet. (All imgs are stock ITL41F with locked bootloader of course)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vilasman:
I have the Isound 16,000 mA battery. I plugged it into my flyer at around 9am in the morning it is now 9pm and the flyer is still showing 100% battery. The Isound is still about 1/2 full so I may leave it connected tonite just to see how long it last. I have two of the isounds so I could truly leave me flyer on all the time and never run out of battery.

Also Isound will be coming out with a bigger battery capable of charging a laptop
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Or, you could just hook the flyer to a small car battery for about $60 you get 500,000 mA or roughly 22 days of contiguous operation without plunging in. WOW !!!!!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vilasman:
true but the isound will fit in a jacket or a pants pocket and is only a little heavier than the flyer itself. But in all seriousness. I am looking into getting a goal zero solar/battery setup for going to the beach or other such places.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Xxul:
hahahahahahaha
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
This solar panel supplies the required 1.2 amps for powering the Flyer, you could go a little smaller, but not much.

http://www.amazon.com/Sunforce-50033-15-Watt-Solar-Charging/dp/B001RJOP5Y

or this one at Dimension 18 1/4 x 12 x 2/3 in

http://www.amazon.com/Instapark®-15W-Mono-crystalline-Solar-Panel/dp/B004FX10ES/ref=pd_sbs_auto_5

Of course you would actually no kidding be better off to use a solar panel to charge a car battery then charge your Flyer and backup battery using the car or motorcycle storage battery, since the sun don't shine at night and any excess power generated and not stored is lost forever

Yes, both my wife and I will both be getting the new phone. I'm the type of person that has to have the next thing out, exactly when it comes out. I'm hoping we get both white and black models so I can get each for my wife and I. We've never owned that same model phone at the same time, and that would just be irritating if we did and couldn't tell the difference without turning it on.

I am kinda of disappointed that the car dock that I bought for my EVO 3D won't work anymore. I like being able to drop the phone right in the dock and use it for navigation and Pandora, but it's whatever. I'll just get used to putting it back in my lap or whatever.
