Hi everyone,

Is there a way I can remove the Taiwanese variant OS and install another country's or a base version?

Thanks!
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Yes, just follow the debranding guide.
[Nokia Lumia 800] myrlar:
So I saw a debranding guide for the 710, is there one for the 800? Could you link it? :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
It's the exact same princable, just replace references to 710 with 800 and you're golden.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curiousmike:
Running Reloaded ROM, I'm having an issue with installed apps 'suddenly' throwing the subject "App isn't installed" message... even tho (from my point of view) it is installed.

I *think* the earliest apps I've installed are OK, but more recent apps are prone to this issue.

I've uninstalled and re-installed the apps only to have them work for a day ( or reboot ) and come back with the message.

Suggestions?

OK so I searched xda and Google but I cannot find the correct version of gtalk to work with CM9.. anybody have the apk? Thanks in advance :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Rujelus sp? Has the inverted black and blue one for ics in apps and themes it works on aokp so I'm assuming it should work on cm9 just look for inverted Google apps thread and follow the link to his page

Hi, I'm trying to install Windows 8 64 bits Consumer Preview by DVD driver in my PC, but, it's very, VERY slow to install. I wait 1 hour to select the language. Why is happening this? For install my Windows 7 32 bits Ultimate was the same. Is my HD or DVD Driver? (I burn 2x in the DVD by Power ISO)

Thanks.
[Windows 8 General] ohgood:
That software you mentioned should have died out years ago , but didn't. They propped up sales by seeding torrents that blahblahblah.... rant off.

Anyway, try a md5sum on the images and dvds.

I installed on a vm in less than 15minutes, and even with the annoying reboots it was fairly quick.

Check you bios for odd settings.
[Windows 8 General] Erazor84:
Are your floppy disk controller enabled in the bios? Since Windows Vista some Mainboards have problems with setup if the floppy controller is enabled! deactivate it and setup should run at normal speed!
[Windows 8 General] moose.splash1:
Windows 8 is a big file on its own, if you're trying to install the 64 buy version its even bigger. Be patient or try the 32 bit version :)
[Windows 8 General] moose.splash1:
It could also be that your drivers are out of date or that your computer has a slow disc speed
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
given that you said you had issues on another OS then its likely to be a hardware issue.

first suggestion is to make sure your using 32 bit DMA access in your BIOS, its quite easy to set that to UDMA 0 or even PIO mode by mistake, its also possible the drive or disks your burning from / to might not be as accurate as they should be, its also worth checking your download isn't corrupted, I had that issue on the DP but that failed to install rather than just being slow.

If your using older drives using parallel cables, make sure they are on different channels, ie not connected to the same cable (master slave)

you could try setting up a USB drive install, that would rule out the media drive altogether and limit it to your moby or HDD
[Windows 8 General] MRaimo:
Thanks guys, I will format my HD and try again in some days o/
[Windows 8 General] Vintage144:
how is your raid set up? Make sure you have ahci , I loaded 64 bit last night , took less than 10 minutes and I had a corrupted drive to begin with (that took me an extra 10 minutes by itself) but install of the OS was the fastest Ive ever had on a windows machine !
[Windows 8 General] flyingdreamz:
Slow DVD install

It sounds like you have a low transfer speed or a low read speed on the DVD drive. Because it took me just over an hour to install Windows 8 CP on HP ZD7249CL. it took about 15 minutes to install on my Home Built desktop (AMD Phenom X4 840 3.2Ghz, 8 GB of ram, SATA III, AMD HD5770). See if you can upgrade to a sata drive if possible.
[Windows 8 General] MRaimo:
My older DVD drive is SATA, the new one(from my old PC) is IDE, and the both took the same time.

I will try to make some changes in the BIOS and reinstall the OS.

So I post the results.

Thanks all of you o/

I'm curious....

Does windows allow imaging/installing from disk images for non corporate users ?

On my mac I image disks, and install whatever is needed from the images. Its magnitudes faster than waiting on cd/dvd read times.

Maybe someone here is familiar with how its done on windows ?
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
Windows has some of the most efficient installation methods of any OS, you can essentially build whatever you like and have a completed automated / unattended install

More specifics would be good.

[HTC One X] QWIKSTRIKE:
I have read many threads about bugs and possible, bugs on a phone that just launched....the HTC ONE X. Well let me tell you cry babies that every phone that launched new has had issues including the iPhone. Some of you cry, and compare this phone to the Galaxy Nexus.....really? Just run over to the Galaxy Nexus forum and look at all the bugs that it has. Hell Verizon has yet to get 4.04 patch, and all others just got a patch for a phone that has been released over 5 months ago....wtf.http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1585889

So far hardware wise this is the phone to beat, not every phone has these bugs, and there has been record of tester reviewers getting 1.27 patch that clears up all of these issues. All I have to say to some of you is yes phones should be perfect when launched in an ideal world, but we don't have perfect ideal lives or phones.

However; the Galaxy Nexus has just as many problems yet I see comparison threads as if it were running glitch free when it is not.
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
Stop crying dude. People will voice their opinion no matter what you say. Pocketnow review of the one x. Why don't you tell him to stop talking about lag and bugs. http://pocketnow.com/android/htc-one-x-review
[HTC One X] QWIKSTRIKE:
I am not the one crying you are the whiner here mister. Pocket Now gives this phone a good review with a point out of a few bugs. Go ahead talk about the bugs the phone has, but this thread is about finding bugs and comparing it to another buggy phone like the Galaxy Nexus.wtf

I am not, and have not suggested that if you have a bug feel happy say nothing. I am merely suggesting that the whiners comparing it to another buggy phone like the Galaxy Nexus to wake up. The Nexus still has bugs 5 months later. BTW Pocket Now called it the best Android device on the market today. Also there seems to be a 1.27 patch that a few reviewers had that seem not to have theses issues.
[HTC One X] Rouz.:
I agree with you. I'm coming from galaxy nexus, and based on my experience, HTC One X is far superior in terms of build quality and all.

Sure, htc one x has its own bugs, like any other phone, but I had more issues with my galaxy nexus. bugs that i couldnt stand like microphone cutting out in the middle of a call (and it happenned so often) and poor wifi reception. Not to mention the crappy camera with blurry images.

Now obviously these bugs are not for everyone, and its not something that you can notice in the first glance, but as you use them both for a period of time, you can definitely say which one is better.
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
So in summation, you're saying that regardless of all the build, audio, screen, lag, Sense restarts and charging issues we should all just keep quiet, discuss no issues and provide no feedback and let HTC think everything is fine and dandy?

Seriously?

It's people like you that are halting the evolution of the human race.
[HTC One X] QWIKSTRIKE:
You state that I am halting evolution, and you can't even comprehend what you are reading and then you misinterpret what you have read and suggest that I am halting evolution. Seems to me that you and your High IQ "not" is halting human evolution.....ass backwards thinking dare I say!

RIF...don't be an idiot I didn't suggest that at all. Stupid is as stupid does come on man. I said that I don't suggest nor have I suggested that you find bugs and feel happy about them and say nothing. I merely state that to find bugs and compare it to another buggy phone like the Galaxy Nexus is just plain stupid.....wtf RIF= Reading Is Fundamental lol just in case YOU miss what RIF means! I bet you are a rocket scientist aren't you ;)

I am not the one crying you are the whiner here mister. Pocket Now gives this phone a good review with a point out of a few bugs. Go ahead talk about the bugs the phone has, but this thread is about finding bugs and comparing it to another buggy phone like the Galaxy Nexus.wtf

Now go ahead and quote where I suggest the things that you have written
[HTC One X] Nos0x:
I think I'll just leave you to it and I'll whine in another thread ;-)
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
I think you need to read your own OP again friend cause you saying two.different things here. People complaining about bugs is normal, we need to talk about those bugs so we can either help each other on the forum and fix it or let HTC know about them. Also people are comparing the One X to the nexus because the nexus is ARGUABLY the best android phone to compare it to ( shout out to the galaxy note). And nobody here said that the nexus is better than the one x, we said that there are things that the nexus does better than the one x like handling flash player for example. And I suggest you watch again the video review of pocket now when he says that a device like that with many cores SHOULDNT be lagging those are his words and I absolutely agree. He also said that the Galaxy S3 is on the way and it might blow the one x out of the water. Every things he said was spot on, it was unbiased that's the reason why I provided you with the link so you can see for yourself. YES THE ONE X IS CURRENTLY THE BEST ANDROID DEVICE ACCORDING TO ENGADGET, POCKETNOW, THE VERGE ECT... but is it worth upgrading from a nexus when.the Galaxy s 3 is right around the corner? I don't know about that we will see but we gonna keep pointing out the issues about this phone and any other phone as a matter of fact. This is the first quad core phone on the market so of course it will be scrutinized like this.
[HTC One X] QWIKSTRIKE:
No reason to reread what I posted my friend I stand by it. I am not trying to minimize the issus that this phone has. The many post in this forum suggest that the isssues are real and they exist. I don't suggest feeling happy about them and that no one should be posting about them like the person that I was anwering suggested either.

That said I also never said any one in this thread said anything aobut the GN. However I do mention that I have read post on this forum where people are comparing this to the Galaxy Nexus when infact the Galaxy Nexus has bugs just as well. This is all that I suggest and that I am merely pointing out OK! All phones when laucnhed seem to have bugs that are found by the masses when used more frequently on a daily basis. The Galaxy Nexus may be used as a bench mark, but remember it still has just as many bugs 5 months later is all I am referencing here with that statement. Android central has a One X vs GN and the GN gets blown away . Not all of these phones seem to have that issue which suggest a software glitch may be the problem. I saw a review where these issues were present but the reviewer got a 1.27 patch that eliminated them. http://m.androidcentral.com/htc-one-x-or-samsung-galaxy-nexus

I just feel that to get a phone on launch and complain about its problems and compare it to another phone with just as many problems is ridiculous, and if you read more out of what I am saying it is what it is period. Again I am not trying to minimize the issues or suggest that people should be happy with them nor have I insinuated this!
[HTC One X] barondebxl:
I hear what you're saying in your last paragraph, but again this is the first phone on the market to be quad core so it will be scrutinized. That's just how people think quad core phone = shouldn't lag. Small bugs here and there are one thing cause it's easily fixed with software updates or ROMs and kernels. But lag on a quad core device doesn't look too good that's the point I'm trying to make. And again it is the first quad core phone. This year I was hesitant on buying the one X cause last year I purchased the sensation and what a piece of crap it was at launch. ( remember all the rumors about the pyramid first HTC dual core phone blah blah blah) and it was a disappointment in my opinion. With time it became better with ROMs and stuff but still. Now the one x launches with all thes bugs. Same thing again. Next year when HTC release their new flagship people will remember that the one x launched with lots of bugs so they might not buy the new one. See what I'm saying?
[HTC One X] vsnlweb:
I haven't read through this thread because I am at work... But for one... I have having trouble adding my apple email account... And it appears that maps is always in the recent apps list even when I haven't opened it... Is it GPS that's doing it?
[HTC One X] QWIKSTRIKE:
I agree with the statement about lag issues and all, and yes a quad core should not lag, but remember the software is more than likely the issue. Some phone's have the problem and some that were reviewed that did received 1.27 patch the problems disappeared, and increased battery life.

In spite of the lag Pocket Now still said that its the best Android phone to date. This I think may be attributed to the thinking that the issues are software related and may be resolved with a DEV rom or a patch. Again I am not trying to minimize any issues that are reported.
[HTC One X] deanfarnaby:
Hello!.

Not sure on your Apple email address.

The maps thing, it did this to me for a day or two. I thought I was accidentally pressing maps all the time with out realising. Then one day it suddenly stopped happening. I presume that it was downloading some maps files it needed or something, not sure.

Bugs with my One X are as follows (T-Mobile , Branded..... :mad: , 1.26.110.5)

Flash player pretty much unuseable - embedded videos in websites laggy, slow, crash browser and htc sense, but phone does come back.

Flash player full screen (not embedded, the open in new window type) also very laggy and crashes browser and HTC sense eventually.

Also tried some low resources flash games, and some flash fruit machines. These also crash.

Apart from that mine seems to be ok, apart from the horrid T-Mobile boot logo and the horrid internet icon they use :(
[HTC One X] pickup9785:
What a pointless thread, can't believe somebody opened a thread just to argue, and badly at that ! ? :eek:

Somebody please close this thread !
[HTC One X] Paulst30:
I tend to gather real world evidence over a period of time by actually using the device, rather than read countless posts about bugs.

I've had 4 Sense devices and all of them lagged and the One X is no different. However, only on exiting of apps in my case.

It's simply thee best device i've ever owned and apart from the occasional flicker of the screen and it being huge, i cannot fault it compared to other phones i've used.

I'm still, however, envious of the slickness of iOS and that's all end users care about. It's how smooth the experience is. Having a Quad core marketing strategy counts for nothing in my eyes, if the UI stutters it's game over.

On the flipside, apparently an update has solved a few laggy issues, but again until i see it myself, i won't believe it.
[HTC One X] deanfarnaby:
I see where you are coming from, but this thread has now moved away from that argument I hope , onto a decent discussion.

I can't believe your first post was to ask for somebody elses thread to be closed!

If anybody else on T-Mobile can confirm flash player issues it will help me a lot. Not sure if I need a replacement handset

[Motorola Droid RAZR] cheekrox:
I know Verizon Wireless uses a CDMA network for their services. But LTE is GSM right? I remember the UMB standard which gives 4G on CDMA was abandoned in favor of LTE. So does that mean the Droid RAZR/MAXX have both GSM and CDMA radios? Also is it possible to have voice/video calling on 4G LTE?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Beach_Head:
Yes, the XT912, XT910, and Maxx phones use the same chipset and have GSM and CDMA radios. They have just been disabled for the different regions.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] g2tegg:
LTE is entirely separate and different then CDMA/GSM. LTE uses the 700Mhz spectrum, while GSM/CDMA uses 850Mhz to 2100Mhz. Eventually, once LTE becomes more mainstream will we see chipsets that support GSM/CDMA/LTE/HSPA+

The Razr has the capabilities to be used with GSM and CDMA, carrier depending. But not LTE. It simply doesnt have the chipset.

And 4G is a loose term. It is used in reference to LTE, and HSPA+. Since our phone only supports data speeds up to 14.4Mb down (HSPA), it is not a 4G device.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wildklymr:
The cdma Droid razr and maxx are LTE phones. I don't know about the GSM Motorola razr.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
it often makes economic sense for a large scale electronics manufacturer to make only a single bit of hardware and then enable/disable various bits in software. Intel has been doing this for almost 30 years. I've seen several references to all RAZRs having identical hardware including one from a Verizon employee who claimed could flash a RAZR from gsm to cdma and then back again.

---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

what i often wonder is if there is a 1700 (tmobile) radio buried somewhere deep in the RAZR.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] al3xx:
Nah, iFixit did a teardown and found a Qualcomm MDM6600 baseband. That doesn't have T-Mobile's frequencies. If it had the option for pentaband GSM, Motorola would definitely market the hell out of that - think about how many more customers they could get.

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Motorola-Droid-RAZR-Teardown/7048/1
[Motorola Droid RAZR] g2tegg:
Your right. I had no idea that Verizon had a LTE version. I guess thats the difference between the XT910 and the XT912. Im curious to know if the XT912, unlocked, will work with other LTE carriers besides Verizon.

On top of that, I am unable to find any ifixit reviews of the XT912. Only the XT910. Is there actual hardware differences?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cheekrox:
My question is since LTE is GSM and Verizon is NOT GSM, how do they manage to provide LTE service? Does the phone keep switching between CDMA and LTE or what?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bsweetness:
When you're in an area that has LTE coverage, you'll get LTE. When you're in an area that does not have LTE coverage, the phone automatically switches to CDMA.

The Verizon RAZR does have a GSM radio. But as others have said, it's disabled. Verizon has said they're going to enable the GSM radio on the Droid 4 for international use in the future, and since the Droid 4 and the RAZR are pretty much identical internally, many people think that Verizon may eventually enable the GSM radio on the RAZR as well at some point (though there has not been any official or unofficial word from Verizon/Motorola on that).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Beach_Head:
To answer your questions:

1. They are using GSM. They partnered with Vodafone in 2007 and have been building their LTE network since then.

2. Yes. CDMA for 3G and LTE for 4G.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cheekrox:
Riight! So the DROID RAZR keeps switching between LTE (which is GSM) and Verizon's CDMA network right? Which means that it HAS TO have a GSM radio in it for LTE to function? Also I heard voice is NOT possible over 4G, is this true?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bsweetness:
Like myself and others have already said, there is a GSM radio in the Verizon RAZR. It is just not possible to use it. The Verizon RAZR will not work on a GSM network (at least not until the capability is enabled by Verizon or a developer).

VoLTE (voice over LTE) is possible, but no one is really doing that yet.

LTE is a form of GSM, but it's best to think about the two as completely different since in the real world their manner of operation is different. So don't think of LTE and GSM as the same type of technology that's interchangeable. Think of each as separate from the other.

Also, don't confuse what is often referred to as 4G on GSM networks (HSPA+) and LTE. They're also completely different. HSPA+ is often called 4G, but it's actually just an extension of existing 3G technology. LTE, for all intensive purposes, should be viewed as a completely different technology.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] g2tegg:
I agree with you 100 percent. Except the fact that LTE is not a form of GSM nor CDMA. Its completely different.

The funny part about HSPA + is that its HSPA with mimo technology. Theoretically making it 3g on steroids.

razr maxx

There are two separate models of the Razr Maxx.

the first one, the xt912 released months ago is for the US market and is a CDMA phone

here s the link with all the specs:

developer . motorola . com / products / droid-razr-maxx-xt912

the second one, the xt910, is a gsm phone. and works on 2g and 3g networks around the world.

Connectivity

GSM 850/900/1800/1900,

W-CDMA 850/900/1900/2100

as u can read as well on Motorola website.

i cant post entire links due to restrictions to my new account but if u go on typing the url without spaces u will see all the specs

developer. motorola . com / products / razr_maxx_xt910

I have already bought the xt910 and i use it in Australia on normal 2g, 3g and 3.5g capable networks. It works on Telstra Next G network as well. The battery is amazing. 2 days of intense use in 3.5g without recharging it. 5 days of moderate use (gps - bluetooth - sync off) without a charge.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] AutoBlogReviews:
If you head over to the bionic forum a developer has been able to unlock the GSM radio for the RAZR/Droid 4/Bionic. It's compatible with ATT HSPA and T-Mobile edge. As far as I know it's still a work in progress.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] AutoBlogReviews:
And yes at this time no carrier (that I know of) carries voice over LTE. It's still in the experimental stages.
