my friend had billing issues with verizon they started double billing him got like 400 behind so he said screw it and went to sprint he gave me the phone but im 99% sure it will be locked because his contract was not up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeSyr:
If you weren't able to, I'm pretty sure that stealing phones to resell them would be a whole lot less lucrative.

Just need to ask Verizon to activate it and you should be set.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leo5111:
excuse me stealing? my friend showed me he even showed verizon his receipts he had PROOF of FULL payment every month all of a sudden his bill went up like 400 bucks he is only person on account they asked him to send in his receipts he did they refused to fix it, they are the theifs 412 bucks he does NOT owe and they said pay it off or we shut you off so he told them to f**k off ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elementfrvr:
He's not accusing you of stealing, he's saying that if it was not possible to activate it the entire market for stolen phones would not exist because they would be useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sqrls:
I highly doubt they denied him after he sent in receipts... if so he needs to try again at a different location. I've been able to get months of free service from Verizon by threatening to cancel (I do have 7 lines for over ten years though and 3 lines are in the top 1% of data use age.. still unlimited ;)).

However, as the previous poster pointed out and you ignored, call Verizon and just activate it. They won't say no to a new line with 2gb data cap.

I think its stolen but whatever I need ten posts in newb central.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leo5111:
look,Sqrils it is NOT stolen he still has the receipt with the imei of the phone, ya he went to verizon knocked everyone out stole a galaxy nexus and printed himself a fake reciept :rolleyes:.....:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cam_hamlin:
Its a 4g phone...just pop a good Verizon sim in it and it will activate...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tehgyb:
It would be 4gb usage on a new act... 4g phones have the double data promo atm ;)

Still have to register the imei on the network or the phone won't activate.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tehgyb:
The phone won't be blacklisted for non payment unless its reported stolen or fraudulent. Cancelling an account with an outstanding balance doesnt meet the criteria.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The phone won't be blacklisted but your friend still owes them $$ either way. He should sell the phone so he can pay off his debt to VZW lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leo5111:
pay off verizon? ya right my friend showed me the receipts he paid his bill to absolute zero balance every month then one bill came in and instead of the regular 120 came in as 523 bucks he sent them all his receipts and they still claim he owes 400 :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Exactly. They think he owes them money. Just because he left for Sprint doesn't mean they're just going to give up trying to get it from him...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexicon:
Plus you understand he's screwing his credit. And they probably won't activate it because there is a bill attached to that phone. So technically it's blacklisted until you pay for his share. I've worked far too long in the cellular industry to know. Unless they're desperate for customers then I don't think so
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spencer88:
He needs to settle the dispute with Verizon and not run away from the problem.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rimkhan1:
Hi,

I purchased my Note from Amazon.de and it came with Baseband Version: N7000XXLB2 which is a German version. I live in England so I wanted to move to a UK rom. As I could not root it by any given method, I downladed " N7000XXKKA ------ 2.3.6 2011 November------- N7000CPWKK3 -----------United Kingdom (Carphone Warehouse)" and flashed it via Odin. Than I got my root but now I can't get it updated via built in Software Update thing. My current Baseband is:N7000XXKK5. Any suggestions to get official OTA updates?

Regards
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TempusFudgeIt:
I believe because you are on latest build 2.3.6 that you won't get any OTA updates until ICS is available. I've never had one OTA update (had the phone for 6 months) and always put this down to the fact that I have manually updated many kernels and ROMs so am always on a recent one.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bioweb:
If you flashed the latest UK rom then you won't get any OTA updates since it's the latest rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anilisanil:
Even if you get ota you should not update as you would loose root doing so.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
make sure you only have root and not non stock kernel.

that stops ota as well as having different csc than the stock rom you are with. In my experience at least.

So if you dont have latest rom for your csc and do want it with functional ota then flash through Odin a pre december version that is rootable in conventional way. Then only root it. After root try Ota, it should deliver incremental upgrades. After each test root thought by updating superuser app. Tedious process but that guarantees keeping Ota and root for me at least.

All at own risk, and do the proper backups like efs if you havent done so already. pm if you need more details :)

I'm using visual voicemail and would like to disable the regular voicemail notification. Any help appreciated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
Don't know if it works, try disabling notifications in the visual voicemail from settings, maybe will change the regular one too?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slimslim:
Or just go in the phone -> settings, uncheck "phone notifications preview"...

If you can read this, I's been a drinkin
[HTC Inspire 4G] mcdanieljr:
I had a similar problem with a used Desire HD -- I eventually found that doing a factory data reset solved the problem.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Seach the thread of the Rom your currently using first to see if anyone else if having that issue. Be sure to FULLY wipe before flashing the Rom. After fully wiping and re flashing, test your WiFi before restoring anything from tibu. If it works start restoring you user apps one by one to see if maybe one of those is giving you the fits. DO NOT restore any system apps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] graewulf1:
Also, don't forget to flush the caches when installing the ROM. I know that failure to do this can cause issues with a fresh ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
i was a nub and restored wifi passwords/config with tibu and killed my wifi entirely until i wiped. dont make this mistake :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1shukla:
superwipe

I recommend you get super wipe from the Android rom revolution HD thread. Boot recovery and run super wipe whenever you install a new rom or during some updates. After super wipe than install your ROM and.then install inspire mod.zip and then reboot. If your wifi then does not work then you should install wifi fix. Most ROMs I've used I don't need the wifi fix actually never needed it. I highly recommend asopx ICS ROM. Latest version 31 has most everything except video can working.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mehal88:
I was using AOSPx all day today and then around 7pm randomly lost signal and it never came back. Had to do factory reset and its working again but now I'm back to reinstalling a ton of apps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1shukla:
asopx

Mehal88 strange about your wifi problem on asopx. Did you try a.simple reboot instead of factory wipe? I'm assuming you are talking wifi signal and not att? I'n my area radio, ril, and apn settings make a HUGE difference.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
I know the phone comes locked from Rogers, but I was wondering if anyone has used an online unlocking service, trimmed a SIM into a microsim, and tested that the Rogers version does in fact work on WIND.

I will be doing this shortly, so check back for updates!

April 25, 2012 Part 2

I got the SIM from my friend and marked it up.

I cut the SIM down to microsim size.

Booted up my phone, entered the unlock code from cellunlocker.

And got no signal ):

This SIM is (was) working in an HTC Incredible S (international version that supports AWS) immediately before I trimmed it. The trim was successful since the SIM had a PIN lock and unlocking it was successful. I could also see the contacts stored on the SIM.

I went into testing mode to play with the radio settings.

And still get 'No Signal' and 'Emergency Only'.

I've notified HTC again about this and I'll let you know what they advise.

Also, if anyone wants to help me recover the cost of a new WIND SIM ($25), I'd greatly appreciate it, although it's highly unnecessary (:

April 25, 2012

Just an update: I contacted HTC regarding the discrepancy between the official specifications (AWS on wcdma), and Rogers' specifications (AWS on LTE only) and received this very promising response:

I'll follow-through on my test run on WIND tomorrow (going to cut up a friend's SIM!).

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] soapisclean:
Thanks. I'll be looking forward to your findings. I'm interested in using it for Mobilicity.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
I might wait a little longer before I test this since WIND will officially be selling Microsims when they release the Lumia 710. Going to trim my Rogers sim now though. Wish me luck (:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sosquidtaste:
Good luck from one of your southern neighbors. Damn it, T-Mobile. Why you gotta make me have to look to phones on other networks :]
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
Successfully trimmed my Rogers fat-sim into a microsim without much reference (I don't have a microsim to measure or anything). This is a good sign as I should be able to trim the WIND sim once I get this sucker unlocked!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zivan56:
Its about $20 to unlock, which isn't bad. I plan to buy the phone for use on WIND when the price drops a little bit more.

There is no reason why it shouldn't work apart from being SIM locked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PoorCollegeGuy:
If you'd like to PM me when you're done, I'd like to write about it for the XDA Portal :)

Try to be as informative as possible lol, so I can better describe to others what you're doing
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
Sure thing. I might write about it as well, so it might save you some trouble and give you some pictures to work with (:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fungflex:
Did you do the unlock yet? I am very curious if the model can be used on WIND and in return T-Mobile here in the US. VERY VERY curious about this, shoot me a PM as I am willing to donate to your cause to unlock it just so I could find out the truth about the bands.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Just to let everyone know I bought the phone on Friday from rogers and used cell unlocked (google it) it only cost $8 USD and I'm now using it on Telus. The unlock code only took about an hour and they emailed it to me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fungflex:
Hey, since as far as I can tell your the only one with an unlocked rogers 1x (Hofo/xda at least) do you have any way to test the phone on wind or Moblicity
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
Just an update, I will be porting my number over to WIND on the 27th or so. This should be the definitive date on whether this actually works and that I can trim my second SIM successfully q:

I've been collecting pictures of the process, and I will probably be writing about it once complete.

~dan
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fungflex:
Awesome, thanks. I'm stuck waiting till 5/6 to get my hands on one. But for me it's really important that it works on T-Mobile. Because that's what I ideally will be using and so if your test goes smoothly I will know that as a worst case scenario I can always purchase the Rogers model.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
No sorry I have no way of testing it on WIND or moblicity I dont think that any o0f my friends on thoes carriers will like it if I cut up there sim card to test lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] muchski:
Sweet! Can you direct me to the $8 unlock? That would be epic!!!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] howipig:
I wonder what marketing / customer service dept had learnt about technical spec?!

muchsk / danada,

Greetings.

Thank for your sharing. Can you please ask HTC why the variant in question i.e. the North American variant with LTE support from Rogers (also marketed as HTC One XL elsewhere) and Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 (Dual-core)... PJ83100, has NEVER filed any certification for WCDMA VOICE and DATA operation in the UMTS Band IV (AWS) at FCC and Industry Canada?

At FCC Office of Engineering and Technology, NM8PJ83100: https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/repo...e=N&application_id=198021&fcc_id='NM8PJ83100'

Check out the reports such as SAR report 1, we can find the reference...

GSM 850 / 1900

UMTS Band II (1900) / V (850)

LTE Band 4 (AWS) / 17 (700, Lower Block B & C for at&t)

At Industry Canada, Certification and Engineering Bureau, 4115A-PJ83100: http://www.ic.gc.ca/app/sitt/reltel/srch/nwRdSrch.do?lang=eng

The relevant designator in the AWS spectrum, 9M16W7D, refers to the LTE Band 4 (AWS) operation - NOT UMTS/HSPA+.

Also, it also contradicts with the real world experience by others like mobileservice in HoFo thread http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...TC-One-X-work-on-Wind?p=14789050#post14789050 as well as the latest update from you (danada) here.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
From what I can tell, the hardware supports it but Rogers/AT&T do not plan to support it and locked it via regional firmware. Since the frequencies are locked through the firmware, they may not have to complete testing for the locked bands.

I did get an additional message from HTC that I didn't post since it seemed redundant, but here are the important bits:

I asked if it's possible that Rogers put a lock on the AWS WCDMA band through firmware.

So it seems the HTC One X(L) is the exception to the rule. Maybe if we can get some more members to pressure Rogers/HTC for the specification discrepancy, there may be a resolution (OTA radio update or something).

~dan
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] htc fan89:
Calling should work on it right? except data?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zivan56:
Try this (needs root). You will have to verify the modem is /dev/smd0 (may be specified in /system/build.prop under ro.ril.something) and download the platform SDK for the adb command.

adb shell

su

stop ril-daemon

cat /dev/smd0 &

echo -e "AT\r" > /dev/smd0

(you should see OK or similar)

echo -e "AT+COPS=0\r" > /dev/smd0

(should be OK, sets network selection mode)

echo -e "AT+COPS=?\r" > /dev/smd0

(you should see all available networks)

That will tell us if the baseband sees WIND/Mobilicity.

Reboot after or do:

start ril-daemon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Voice should work, as well as 2G/EDGE. Its the UMTS 3G/"4G" that is being questioned. It seems that the Rogers One X may have the hardware to be compatible with the AWS band that WIND (and US T-Mobile) for 3G/4G data, but it may not be enabled in firmware. So for now, no 3G/4G data, but maybe in the future.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] htc fan89:
So, I wouldn't be roaming when calling? I really don't care about data, it's slow as **** anyway...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
As far as I know, rooting the North American One X(L) isn't possible yet.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] htc fan89:
When you tried using it with wind, you got No service, so this means Voice wouldn't work either?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:
I got No Service whatsoever, just the option for emergency calling.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zivan56:
Does it create a new modem under Windows when you install all the HTC drivers? You can use that and hyperterminal.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] htc fan89:
That's really strange, the iphone like works on wind, but gets edge data. So, this should work.....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danada:

htc fan89,

Greetings.

I do not know how familiar you are with WIND Mobile Canada because iPhone does not work with WIND. First, WIND has a UMTS/HSPA network in the AWS spectrum without its own GSM... Only when you are in the "WIND Away", roaming on Rogers in Canada.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] htc fan89:
It's so confusing, I think I understand it even with GSM I be roaming on Wind away, and wouldn't be able to connect to Wind Home.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] howipig:
danada,

Thank you for your efforts. Do not get me wrong, I rather to see it works in the UMTS Band IV (AWS) even it has never been certified by FCC and Industry Canada.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] howipig:
htc fan89,

WIND Home is ALWAYS UMTS/HSPA in the UMTS Band IV (AWS)! This is why someone at WIND have got the shock in billing when innocently roaming on Rogers or without understanding what WIND Away means. Also, some devices with UMTS Band I (2100) support are able to scan the downlink of those UMTS carriers in the AWS spectrum. But it does not mean it will register with the network.

Got a reply from hTc :)

Dear ,

I see that you have questions regarding the HTC One X. I will be happy to answer those for you.

Although we cannot guarantee unlocking the One X to run on any carrier other than ATT will work, it seems as if you will be able to connect to the Edge network, make calls, and text. You will not receive LTE, 4G or even 3G speeds.

If you have any further questions, I will be happy to assist you.

I hope this information helps you, Mohamed. Have a great week!
