[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terryjohnson16:
Got the Nexus S. I checked and the ICS 4.0.4 firmware was ready to be downloaded. 129.4MB.

It downloaded, and it restarting to install, then the android alien, and the yellow exclamation point with the triangle was on the screen. The phone rebooted, but the ICS software didnt' install.

Phone rebooted, and 2.3.4 is still on the phone. It says there are no software updates available now. Whats going on?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
Are you rooted or do you have a custom rom installed? Either way, flash to stock 2.3.6 then you should get the 4.0.4 update and it'll install fine.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terryjohnson16:
The phone isn't rooted, and its the standard ROM that came with the phone. The phone have to be on the cellular network? I downloaded the firmware using wifi, with no SIM card in the phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terryjohnson16:
It shows the following:

Android 2.3.4

Baseband version: I9020XXKD1

Kernel version:

2.6.35.7-ge382d80 android-build@apa28 #1

Build number: grj22-copyright 2011 bstarrs
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poriotis:
If you look around (google) there are places where you can download the ROM and install it manually without having to be rooted.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
you can do it manually like the post above suggests or if you want to do it automatically, I believe you have to be on 2.3.6 first, then it should update to 4.0.4 as I don't believe there is a clean update from 2.3.4 to 4.0.4. I have t-mobile and my nexus was on 2.3.4 when I took it out of the box but as soon as I turned it on, it upgraded to 2.3.6, then after a few weeks it upgraded to 4.0.4.

Now my was is longer than the post above but either way I think you'll have to root your phone in order to flash either 2.3.6 or 4.0.4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorsolano:
Hello XDA-Developers,

First of all thank you for all what you do to help us to keep us filling our freaky obsession :).

I wanted to post this on Intras's thread but i do not have enough rights, so I hope someone can help me posting it there. This was asked/referred before for other models (e.g. SGS).

Not long time ago the firmware came splitted as mentioned. In Intras's thread one can find separated Modems and CSC, but unfortunately not PDA.

Would be possible to do that? I guess a lot of people want to mix his own Frankestein. In my case, i want to try:

PDA = XWLP8

CSC = XEULP5

Modem = BULP6

I know you can just mix this in Odin or Mobile-Odin or flash separate afterwards, but some times it does not work as expected and it is good to do it in one go. Man can avoid bricks and spare time.

Thank you all.

Did anyone see this on bgr?

http://www.bgr.com/2012/04/17/atts-...ound-to-be-nations-fastest-wireless-services/

They basically say Sprint lags behind everyone in 3G and 4G. I personally get really good 3G speeds (>1mbps), and 4G when I can get it but it is not at my house or work. Just in between. Not wanting to be a whiner. I feel like when Sprint rolls out LTE and Network Vision everywhere we'll be back. I'm rather happy with my wireless data, but it seems we are right now missing out on a lot. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
My 3g speeds are just pathetic now. They used to be decent, like in the 800 plus range at work. Now I'm lucky if I pull 100kbps. Plus I always drop in and out and even go to roaming sometimes. Please hurry up the roll out sprint.

[HTC EVO 3D] royshero:
This isn't anything new. They suck I give them 1 year. I like them a lot, just need to get their **** in order. The only reason I let them slide is price and I'm on wifi 20 hours of the day
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Sprint DOES lag behind on network speeds. Even with the upgrades they've done in my area. Things have improved, but I don't think they're anything to brag about. Even 4G wimax when I have a strong signal is pitiful. There are times I feel 4G wimax is like AT&T or T-Mobile 3G. I don't complain, really, because it's fast enough for me to get by. But... congrats on taking the red pill and waking up :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
I kind of feel like this also. In a year or so from now, I expect to have fast LTE and good 3G as a backup. If that is not the case I may go elsewhere. Allthough I hate to lose unlimited data and the other perks of being with sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] 2k4mach:
my 3g and now 4g speeds are pretty pathetic. 3g is 100k most of the time except in the evenings when the towers are so overloaded it drops to 1x or 3g will just timeout on everything and 4g is now down to anywhere between 200k and 500k during the evening and 1.5-2mb during the rest of the time. yet sprint continues to say theres no problems in the area lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
This is definitely not news. My Sprint service has sucked for a while now.

I'm roaming often, and when I'm not roaming the signal is weak. When I'm lucky enough to get a good signal, 3G is still slower than dial up speeds, and 4G is slower than Verizon's 3G.

Sprint is in real trouble if they don't fix this. The only reason I am still with them is because I really do like my Evo 3D. No other carrier has a comparable phone, and I'm stuck in a contract anyway.

If Verizon got a Samsung Galaxy S 3D, I'd probably break my contract with Sprint to go to Verizon.

Who cares about unlimited data if it's practically unusable in most real world scenarios?

My city isn't even on the list of future LTE markets yet either, so I'm not holding my breath for that. I do have Wimax, but it's pretty crappy.

Sprint has totally fell off. I remember a few years ago when Sprint used to consistently be first or second in these data speed comparisons. Now I would have been shocked if they weren't picked last. And I'm sure most Sprint customers would have also been shocked if Sprint was anything but last in this most recent comparison.

Sprint has got more and more expensive over the years, and the service has got worse and worse. Not a very good outlook for the future at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] NewZJ:
does anybody really think sprint lte will be fast? why do they not assume it will be similar to Wimax speeds?

sprint has 3g but nobody assumes it is as fast as the competition.

rude awakening! you will be unsatisfied with lte speeds and then you will realize that Wimax wasn't the problem, SPRINT is the problem
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
as soon as there network is upgraded... they will morph right into verizon's evil twin. price, and everything. just watch.

the only thing keeping them from not charging an ass load of money is that they are being outperformed in network capability in a lot of areas. i am fortunate to live in an area with very good 4g and 3g, so i can't complain. but man i sure feel your guys' pain with the slow network ****. that would be frustrating. it's like paying for wifi and your wifi is never working or never running fast.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
They already aren't that much cheaper than Verizon anymore. I think last time I checked Sprint was like $5 a month cheaper or something like that. And that wasn't even factoring all the nickel and dime fees Sprint puts on there.

The only thing Sprint has on Verizon these days is unlimited data. The price isn't a big enough difference to really be a factor. And the unlimited data isn't really a factor (to me at least) if it's too slow to use. Sprint's just lucky their network went to **** after they already had me locked into a contract. And even then, I'd have probably left if I could get a phone comparable to the Evo 3D on another network.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
Sprint did the same thing that AT&T when they got the iPhone...they didn't anticipate all the traffic on their network thus not preparing for it. I am holding out though. By the end of the year, a lot of us will have a great network to go with the unlimited data. And will be better than all the others.

[HTC EVO 3D] Saneless One:
The problem with these anecdotal tests is they mean very little in your town. When I worked downtown, Sprint was 800kbps. Not blazing, but amazing compared to AT&Ts 20kbps or Verizons 50.

Different side of town? Sprint is 100 and not very useful. And if I drive 3 minutes away I'm getting 1100.

The best thing to do is do a speed test and get people on other carriers to do them right next to you

Yup true I did the 4g against Verizon test he hit 11mbps I hit 10mbps the only difference was ping his was 58 while mines was 101

[HTC EVO 3D] 2k4mach:
thats true, if i head to the **** side of town i can get good 3g speeds but no 4g lol. or if im around a sprint store they make sure the towers are working perfect. just some observations ive experienced here in san antonio. hell around my parents house half the time i get network busy when trying to make a call. sprint says theres no problems that the network is working as it should haha. they get all pissed when i ask them so for 200+ a month im not supposed to beable to make a phone call and have data speeds that are so ****ty it basically turns my phone into a cool looking paper weight. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] honorlost84:
I get 900kbps to burst speeds of 1.5mbps most days. Just heard from a couple of sources that I'm getting 4g in a month or two
[HTC EVO 3D] aznmode:
Didnt check 3g as Im always on 4g but you guys are right. 3g slowed down for me too. Used to get 1000+kbps now down to 700kpbs.
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
Yeah mine slowed down too I used to get 10 kbps now I get 5 kbps.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
lol, your speeds are like mine
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'm lucky if I get 300kbps in my home area. Luckily, I found out they took down the closest tower in light of the fact of upgrading the others to network vision and haven't yet...so I complained. Until then...it's non-stop bill credits. I'm making them pay for the lack of service. I ask what I get over someone with a $50/mon prepay plan other than the fancy phone I bought...the answer? Nadda.

Pisses me off that we'll have to get new phones again to take advantage of the 4G LTE. Thanks a lot.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Well you can NOT compare the WiMax to Sprint's LTE rollout. not in anyway at all whatsoever....different freq completely and different bandwidth available to be used also...not to mention being deployed by different companies. lol (yes sprint owns majority stake in clearwire but they dont control them in every day to day aspect. if they did then the 2.5GHz LTE would of stayed a part of NetworkVision rollouts).

in the end Sprint once LTE-Advance gets deployed AFTER Network Vision is complete they will be on top of their game as they will be able to pull LTE from 2.5/1900/800 bands and have ample bandwidth.

as for the 3G speeds, i dont think its a surprise that Sprint lags in that area compared to everyone else. Sprint currently uses a ancient backhaul built on bundled T1 lines...while most everyone else uses fiber/microwave...

NetworkVision deployment fixes this HUGE issue for sprint and will return everyone to happy 3G speeds of 1-3Mbps after deployments are done....the backhaul alone is a huge fix for a ton of areas currently restricted by capacity issues...
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
I haven't gotten above 100kbps on 3g in over 2 years. I'm lucky to get 50kbps during the day. Basically making my phone unusable. I for one am switching to Verizon this summer. I've been a Sprint customer since 1999, but I can't stand this slow of data.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
I'm lucky if I get 3g anywhere. P.O.S. service. I only stay for the nicer phones.

[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
Not true. Sprint acquired the iPhone specifically to attract new customers, and doled out a huge chunk of cash to make it happen. Sprint has been in the red for awhile and the only way to stay afloat was to "invest" in future contract money. So Sprint gave Apple a boatload of money so they could sell the iPhone, and therefore, attract new customers. Sprint's thinking being they will eventually make their money back (and hopefully then some) with the contracts gained by iPhone customers. However, Sprint still isn't expected to see any kind of profit before 2015.

So, this is the way I look at it:

-Sprint knew that It's network was overloaded.

-Instead of investing all available assets into repairing it's network, Sprint opted to spend money on licensing rights to the iPhone.

-So Sprint actually spent money to assure that it's already overloaded network would take on new customers.

All these things point to a company that is only worried about it's bottom line and takes no concern to the wants and needs of it's customers, or providing them with quality service.

Add to that the fact Sprint has begun to take away "perks" like early upgrades while significantly raising early termination fees and you have a company that I no longer care to be associated with.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Very well said.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
My speeds were perfectly fine until the iPhones hit the network. That could be a coincidence, but I am not so sure.

I think they got the iPhone because they can't compete otherwise. They had no choice but to get it. Prepared or not, they had to.

And what is Network Vision then? Once it is rolled out, won't Sprint have one of the best networks here in the US? I think so.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Is Sprint moving more data now that they have the iPhone?

I know everyone likes to associate the crappy data speeds with the launch of the iPhone, but Sprint had a lot of smartphone customers long before they launched the iPhone.

I'd be curious to see the numbers on that. Does Sprint have significantly more smartphone customers today than they had a year ago?
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
They have a ton more smartphone users now. I think I read like 30% of cell phone users have smartphones. Like I said, it could be a coincidence. Sprint had to get in on the iPhone or be left behind. And now we suffer from a network well over capacity. We are all data hungry! Hell, even most if not all home ISPs have data caps now.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
I thought I read that something like 60% of Sprint customers were smartphone customers.

But it still doesn't answer the question: How many smartphone users does Sprint have today, and how many did they have 1 year ago?

I bet it's not as big a difference as you think. I think their network issues are more due to other factors.
[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
My fear with "Network Vision" is that it is more of a PR campaign than anything else. All cellular providers are currently working to improve their networks. My feeling is that those with the best current networks, will still have the best networks five years from now. Sprint just doesn't seem to have the resources to outpace it's competitors, which is what it would need to do.

Talk of rolling out some great 4G network means nothing to me when they don't even have a decent 3G network yet.

I will agree with you that Sprint probably had little choice but to take on the iPhone, although I wish that money could have went to improving it's network.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
I wish the money had went to improving as well. But it happened. I'm hoping we will have something to brag about again.

Right now, I can brag about having 4G in a small(30k) city while only major cities have it. And none of the competition will have it here for awhile. God knows why Rome, Georgia has it. Had it since the launch of the EVO 4G. Hell, T-Mobile doesn't even have 3G here!

I want to brag again about how awesome 3G is and our awesome phones.

It's funny cause in san Diego when the 3d came out, the dl speed was terrible. As an employee of sprint, I returned my 3d.

Pretend Sprint is a children's lemonade stand.

Sprint has a pitcher of lemonade large enough to fill twenty cups, and decides to sell each cup for 25 cents.

However, while setting up the stand Sprint notices that there are 30 customers lined up to buy lemonade. Wanting to gain the most profit, Sprint decides to water down it's lemonade so it can sell some to everybody. Sprint still decides to sell each cup at 25 cents.

Once all the lemonade is sold, Sprint becomes aware that there are other potential customers if they choose to advertise. So they take all the profits made from selling the lemonade and print flyers, instead of using the profits to buy ingredients to make more lemonade.

Once the people that seen the flyers arrive to buy lemonade, Sprint realizes they have nothing to offer. So Sprint tells everyone that already bought watered down lemonade to pour some into the newcomers cups. Sprint offers no refunds to those that bought now half-full watered down lemonade expecting a regular glass of lemonade. In addition they also charge the newcomers 25 cents a cup.

Sprint then says not to worry, they should finally have enough lemonade for everyone in 3 years.

That is Sprints business plan dumbed down to a children's lemonade stand, and my last addition to the topic.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
It's no PR scam. Trust me. Take some time to go read up on all the details and you'll understand what they are doing is truly going to make a huge difference on the overall network.
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Check out my dl speed from a 3G test yesterday. I routinely get >1mbps. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] thos25:
This is exactly why I left Sprint. Didn't get above 400 kb FL for over a year. And 400 happened so infrequently that I'd almost have a heart attack when I hit it. Typically it was <100 kb.

I bought a galaxy nexus and went to t-mobile. Ironically, from the day I ordered my nexus, speeds jumped up to 800 kb and have remained there.

I am glad that they improved, but I had already ordered a new phone and wasn't about to pay 25% restocking fee. now I get faster speeds for 10 less a month. Even throttled would be faster than Sprint was.

Updated Towers?

Sprint must have done some upgrading in my area. Went from about 100 kbps for the past year or so to over 1100 kbps for the past couple of days in my home. I read that they were doing upgrades but I can't find the info right now.

Those with slow speeds should keep checking...
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Well, that about does it for me. 3g speeds in my area have been literally 5kbps down and 2kbps up for the past 2 days. Of course, Sprint Tech Support says there is no problem at all. With the 100kbps I usually get, I could at least get emails, and watch youtube videos (after 10 minutes of buffering). But with 5kbps, I can't do anything with my phone.

I'm off to the Verizon store. I'll probably get a mifi device for now and take that with me to tether to my 3d. Once they get the One X or something similar, I will fully end my 15 year account with Sprint.

Anyone else getting ridiculously slow speeds like this the last few days?

I've had speeds like that for months. Nothing new to me. And I already have a Verizon mobile hotspot and plan on leaving Sprint as soon as Verizon gets a phone that I want, or when my contract is up (whichever comes first) if the Sprint network isn't fixed by then.

In short, welcome to my world, lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Unless you are on a custom ROM, it will always show 3G even if you are on 1X. Most custom ROMS have this changed to where it actually shows if you are on 1X which is probably what you are connected to at those speeds.

Mind you, I never told him my zip code... welpp... guess where there STILL isnt 4g... and never will be.... and guess who has to pay the $10 premium data... for only 1X which is just saying its 3G... and guess who has to pay an extra $3 on insurance for an LTE phone later on... and guess what... sprint has been evading taxes, and not doing **** with the money... nor the data money... or anything... network vision is fake and is just a mere ploy to get more people in the network, before they merger to another CDMA provider. more people = higher worth. and guess who is flat ****in broke to switch provider >.>...

i approve this post. EVERYWHERE in florida. Im talking, Miami, Homestead, Orlando, Tampa, Tallahassee, Key West. I have been across the state for various reasons... It is rare to find real 3G speed, unless you are inside the Sprint store... If you are using your phone on the go, or for whatever reason... It is only that... A phone. With wifi.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Man I think it's like this for most of the nation right now. Everywhere I have been has sucked. I see posts here and there about a few people getting good speeds. Those people are not the norm, lol.

Sprint's network totally blows right now. I hope they get it together soon, but there is no way I would consider agreeing to another contract with them until they do.

If they want me to agree to stay, they better show me what they have. No false promises or trying to entice me with what they hope to have someday. I will only sign a contract based on what they have at that moment.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
While I hear ya on the current slow speeds and frustration but you can't blame sprint for the poor Wimax rollout as that's more on clearwire than anything...yes sprint owns majority stake but they don't make the day to day decisions there...hence clear being left out of the networkvision deployments now after the initial docs showed the band being included...

And as to the whole Networkvision is fake....gtfo. its real as ever and there's loads of proof of such too. They are rolling out in clusters and doing a hell of a job this far doing such a rollout...by end of next year they are set to have everything done mostly and lte everywhere that gets current 3G signal as that's the band It's being deployed on and they are hitting all towers less the towers is being decomissioned.

Don't be silly stating NV is fake...
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Sprint is not involved in the day to day decisions of clearwire only because they did not want to be. If they are the majority owner and they aren't involved in the decisions, that was obviously their choice.
