Hey everyone just joined after a couple years of using xda, I have used so much and just wanted to try to give back what I can in terms of my knowledge. I am a manager for Sprint and always have the inside scoop for phones, lte, etc... So if you have any questions or problems with a Sprint phone or service fire away!
[Networking] imheroldman:
What is the easiest way to get out of my contract without having to pay the early termination fees?
[Networking] DetroitFlyer:
When will Sprint get the Note?
[Networking] cstargel5487:
Turn on affilated networks/roaming and make a ton of phone calls/stream video like the end of the world has come or stream pandora non stop. Hit about 2k minutes and like 8gigs + of data and you will get flagged for sure. They will give you a warning the first month but keep doing it and your contract will be terminated w/o any termination fee's. You will lose your phone number this way but its the easiest way to get outta contract. If your desperate you could call in and complain like 10 times a day and they might let you out but its never a for sure thing.

Honestly if it were me I would wait until the network vision is complete as Sprint will have 36,000 towers just like Verizon and AT&T does now. But with Sprint all towers will use 3 signals simultaneously so you will see some great results. I hear horror stories everyday about AT&T and Verizon so beware.
[Networking] cstargel5487:
I haven't heard any news on the note, but I do know we will get the galaxy s3 before much longer. Wouldn't surprise me if the note never came to Sprint but if I was a betting man and it were to come to Sprint you would see it around the same time as the s3.

@cstargel, truth is I am going to go the route of unlocked Galaxy Nexus plus T-Mobile unlimited sim plan! Sprint coverage is fairly terrible in my area, but I do mostly use verizon... Hint... Really it's going to be about saving money in the long run, but who can resist an unlocked developer device?
[Networking] cstargel5487:
Should be mid june
[Networking] Product F(RED):
Ditto. I'm on the old contract with a $140 fee. I've had below-advertised 3G speeds (as well as a few outages) pretty much everywhere here in NYC, since December 2010. I kept getting the "tower upgrades"/"tower outages" run around. I just wanna leave a switch to a cheap prepaid service because I'm in college and it's frustrating paying for useless data.
[Networking] cstargel5487:
read above
[Networking] Product F(RED):
I was aware of that method, but I don't want to lose my number. Are there any alternatives?
[Networking] Kasual52e:
I know the new EVO LTE starts preorders on the 7th but do you know the actual release date for it yet?
[Networking] prohackas:
Hey cstargel5487,

I am currently in a sprint contract which does not end till august. I want to keep my current number and possibly port it to verizon wireless. If I do port it from their service, will sprint still charge the termination fee? If not I would like to know another way of getting out of the contract while still keeping the number.

Thank You
[Networking] Product F(RED):
If you port now, yes. If you port in August when your contract expires, no.

When will Phoenix AZ get 4G

I live in Phoenix Arizona. I'm sure you know that Phoenix is Huge. In fact, it is the 5th largest city in the US. We apparently are the red headed step child when it comes to 4G service. I just reviewed your newly posted coverage map and compared it to a list of the nation’s largest cities. Here is what I found:

1.	New York City – 4G, Nov 2011

2.	Los Angeles – 4G, Nov 2011

3.	Chicago – 4G, Nov 2009

4.	Houston – 4G, March 2010

5.	Phoenix – Nope

6.	Philadelphia – 4G, Dec 2009

7.	San Antonio – 4G, Dec 2009

8.	San Diego – Nope

9.	Dallas - 4G, Dec 2009

10.	San Jose – 4G, Dec 2010

Why do we not have 4G? About 18 months ago I upgraded to the HTC Evo 4G. My thought was that since I lived in a huge city like Phoenix, my chances were pretty good that I would get to use my 4G service. Well, I’m happy to say that last month I finally got to use my 4G service. All I had to do was fly 3000 miles to the island of Maui. With 144,000 people, Maui has only 4% the amount of people compared to 3.25 million people in the metropolitan area of Phoenix. Maui received 4G in December of 2009.

So why not us? How much money is Sprint losing by not getting 4G into Phoenix? How many customers are they losing? :eek:

Does non-market apps enabler work for Nook Tablet running 1.4.2?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] titanshadow:
I have found if it ever gets turned off after root it is impossible to get it to turn back on. However, the rooting process I used did enable it.
[HTC Rezound] QuintonS:
Okay, so recently, maybe a week ago, I unlocked bootloader, tried to root, but failed.

So I installed a recovery image to the Rezound using the clockwork mod (I believe).

Now, my phone's battery went all the way to 0% and died, and now it won't accept a charge or turn on.

Every once in a while it will turn on, but only for a minute, then shut back down.

One time, I got into ADB and tried "adb reboot" and my phone went into a sort of bootloop, but was still sort of charging.

But now the device isn't recognized and won't do it again.

Can anyone please help me?
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
yer gonna get bopped for not using the search function!

Anyway, this should get you started...

Flash AmonRa. Clockwork has issues around charging if the battery goes completely dead.
[HTC Rezound] QuintonS:
I know...but the thing is...it's dead. Can't flash if it has a dead battery. I don't know where to get another battery.
[HTC Rezound] yojoe600:
You should have searched more before flashing anything on your phone ... Clockwork mod has this problem... So this sucks for u.... But I'll try and help.... Go buy another battery from Verizon or online... Or take a battery out of a friends phone and flash amonra... Or u can try and take out the battery plug the phone in and get to hboot menu and flash amonra there

Today I got my new baby, so it's time to thank everyone who gave me answers on my question, helped me with my LG and tried to fix bugs in ROMs...

Specially i want to thank Mike for his great work with ICS and the tons of hours he invested to developing us a rom which wasnt made for such a phone like ours.

Maybe we will see in some other OneX threads and have a great time in this awesome xda-forum ;)

[Motorola Droid X2] Broadley1:
Hey guys got a question I'm on eclipse and whenever I press send it drops 3g instantly. It's weird because I will be in a 3g area and have 3g but when I send a call it drops to about 3 bars. I havnt noticed it till now been on eclipse 2.1 for like 2 weeks:confused::mad:
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
That's really odd... My 3g always drops when I'm in the middle of a call but I can still carry on the conversation

Come over to the dark side...
[Motorola Droid X2] Broadley1:
Hey bud, yea I thought it was weird as well. I can literally put the phone down press send and watch the 3g disappear?
[Motorola Droid X2] thelowend:
Does it return quickly?

Come over to the dark side...
[Motorola Droid X2] Broadley1:
Not while I'm talking but once the call ends yes instantly back to 3g.
[Motorola Droid X2] blackangel104:
I think that's normal because with every phone I've had that always happened. As long as it's not dropping your calls you should be good.

When life sucks I just enjoy the head :)
[Motorola Droid X2] ninjasailas:
Yeah I'm running stock 2.3.4 just rooted and 3g drops everytime

For some odd reason after I flashed hellfire sandwich my wifi wouldn't turn on.

I have

Wiped=still doesn't work

Reinstalled=doesn't work

Flashed several other roms=doesn't work

I have no idea whats going on. It will try to turn on, then force close settings.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tnygigles66:
Quick update.

Reverted back to stock 2.2.2 aand nothing still had issues.

Could be a hardware problem?

Try installing the new "2.3.4 kdz" to get the updated March 2012 baseband and see if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] untruestory:
Just hooked up my new Galaxy Nexus on ST today. Talk, text and data work... except for the data sometimes

Data is slow and spotty despite good signal. When Google Play tries to access the network it fails almost every time. I've found other posts about this solution and tried these two APN settings with no luck:

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
Do not Mess with APNs, the phone gets those from your carrier automaticly... Try flashing some other radios.. For me xxkk6 or any ug version wont work or barely works.. Only xxkl1 works great for me depends on your zone/carrier and several other factors.. So go ahead and find the basebands thread in the general section, download all the radios for gsm (Assuming you have a GSM phone) get the img files and flash them via fastboot and try until you get a Stable service
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] untruestory:
I appreciate the response. Straight Talk says you must and, from what I experienced, the APN was not set automatically and though I had voice and text data did not work at all until I did set it. That might be the case for phones that accept OTA programming but I don't think it's true for unlocked phones or when switching carriers. (I had to set the APN on my Evo after flashing it from Sprint to PagePlus because OTA programming doesn't work)

Thanks for the advice on the radio though. I'll try it
[HTC One S] allyn274:
I'm coming to the One S from an Amaze and I'm thrilled. Just finding a couple of things I cannot figure out. For example... If I click a youtube link, on my Amaze it would give me the option to watch with the browser or with the YouTube app. Now, there's no option. I've gone into the associated app settings and everything and I cannot find a way to set the app to open links.

Is this no longer an option?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi folks, is anyone having issues getting this rom to start? I get stuck on the booting "google" icon with moving gears animation. Let it sit for 18 minutes before pulling battery. Below is how I installed:

1. Factory reset.

2. Wiped cache.

3. Wipe dalvik.

4. Ran dark wipe.

5. Ran kernel cleanser

6. Installed this rom's latest release.

I do the above steps for all rom's I've tried and never an issue with booting.

Any suggestions? In meantime, gonna try again. Thanks

Update: tried again and issue persists.

***Will my newly installed CWM Touch have something to do with it?

I want to flash the new ROM (RC10) how is it in your opinion. For example the cons and pros
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bbaaccoonn:
RC9

I know it says that RC 9 is experimental, but according to the bug list it doesn't seem so bad. Anybody have any personal experience with it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Mixtzin:
For those wondering about the status of all the experimental versions, I will give you a quick rundown of my personal experience with them as far as ability as a DD is concerned.

RC 8: Good DD after inputting APN settings, didnt come across any errors, everything seems to work, except for receiving mms messages, a few others reported the same problem.

RC 9: I personally never had in call audio working, which was reported by others as well, as a result I reverted back to RC 8.

RC 10: Still early in its development, was released early mainly so RaverX3X could get some logcats on things he could not personally test. audio is not working, data (calling, texting, etc) is not working. Unless your looking to help RaverX3X out with logcats and such i would stick to RC 8 or RC 7 as your DD

RaverX3X or anyone else feel free to add or correct me if I'm wrong or missed something.

Edit: Also I installed all roms with non-touch CWM with no problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bbaaccoonn:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kangelov:
Something tells me this simply means you can turn on the on screen hardware keys, similar to what the Galaxy Nexus has. I have yet to figure out what value this is for a device with these very same keys in hardware already, but some people find it cool. I haven't seen a mod that will allow me to reassign my hardware keys to do something else, but I can hardly claim to have seen them all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ImARaptor:
Darn, this makes sense. HOWEVER, if Raver or any other developer wanted to allow us to reassign the hardware keys, that would be much appreciated and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one to appreciate this, as multitasking takes a little longer than it should. :) Thanks either way though!

For those of you having Bluetooth issues, make sure you didn't delete the Music.apk in system/app

Restoring it fixed all my Bluetooth issues! Use a file manager to yank it from the Broken Out ROM zip and back to system/app.

That's a cool simple fix if you removed the stock music app.

But for those that may have other bt issues, especially after flashing beats, try pulling the settings.apk from the base rom and replacing the one on your phone.
