Technically I was. They was not providing the service that I was supposed to get according to their terms. It was funny though. Most people who renew their contract actually agree to the shady terms. I was really mad because I didn't get a warning before I got throttled. And I got throttled at 3.022 gb according to the idiot on the phone. I think the rep using profanity in front of a bunch of customers got my data back on track to be honest. I am glad I used my cellphone to be honest. I was sure going to give CNN my conversation for real. I have to thanks the HTC developers for including the call recorder app in their sense roms. I think it is the RCMix rom.
[Networking] albo23:
You obviously did not read a line of those terms so, technically, you were not. I am not certain what obligations you think AT&T holds if you did not sign a contract but from my observations, it is much smaller than what you think it really is.
[Networking] gasolara2002:
Yes I did. I still have the original brochure from 2006. Those are the terms that are agreed upon. I'm sure it can be googled. The terms of the data back then basically said they can cut you off because overwhelming activity. If I was crazy and used 30gb like some customers then I wouldn't even worry about them cutting me off. They didn't follow their terms and the rep cursed during a service call. What more defense could you provide for AT&T? If you want to get down to the core of throttling it is illegal to throttle unless the service is selected for certain speeds such as what the home internet providers do. I think when some attorney general gets free time on their hands they will go after all of these mobile phone providers and penalize them heavily. Sprint, and T-Mobile are the only smart major national providers so far that are making sure that they avoid trouble in the future by being upfront about their data.
[Networking] gasolara2002:
The thing you don't understand is that it is classified as a product when their is no contract. The terms is what was written in 2006. A product and a service are 2 different things. That's why you see the terms prepaid service and postpaid service. They don't use product a often any more.
[Networking] chrisrotolo:
OH MAN, YES! Dude you Rock! I would have loved to see this.

I love seeing AT&T get kicked in the nuts.

This throttle sh!t p!sses me off. I had a very nice rep use a dead IMEI so he could switch my grandfathered unlimited plan, which now gets throttled at 3GB's, becasue ATT refarmed the extra 2Gigs to Simple Mobile,etc.; put me on the LTE plan so I can get 5GBs which is about what I use. I would have bought an LTE device except we probably wont have LTE for another few years! Not to mention the fact Im using a malyasian Galaxy tab plus 7.0 for voice calls and data, because I dont like being force fed the bloated recycled crap options in their stores.

This is so EPIC WIN. I understand networks are changing and much more data is being used these days, but at least let us original unlmited people use a fair amount..

best read all day!

I would happily settle for a sneaky way to unthrottle oursleves, but they are doing it server side, so I dont think we will have much luck.

Send me the contract when you have an opportunity. I am NOT distributing legal advice, however, I am speaking from the perspective of an individual who is one term from graduating from a T14 Law School. I am suggesting so as you are misleading individuals.

A SERVICE cannot be classified as a PRODUCT in any legally binding terms or agreements (it can, but is unenforceable). Regardless, that is moot as you hold no legally binding terms nor agreements with AT&T. You are still ignoring my previous comment that AT&T can shut off your service tomorrow because there are no legally binding agreements between the two parties. AT&T can throttle you anytime they would like and you can stop paying them anytime you would like as neither of you are constrained contractually.
[Networking] MrObvious:
Very nice. My mom has them for DSL and now she got a cell phone through them. I don't understand it but they suck. Good work man.
[Networking] luftrofl:
It's been widely reported that AT&T has a habit of throttling their so-called "unlimited" plans. You waited until it happened to you to go make a scene in an AT&T retail store? :confused:
[Networking] 9h0s7:
Brilliant.

:thumbup:
[Networking] gasolara2002:
I got it. My ex has been an attorney for 4 years so I take what you say with good vision but experience is supreme. I was partially wrong in my argument. According to her the basis of it is consumer protection laws and AT&T's own terms. My plan which is not a contract but it is a post paid plan. Since I have never put a signature to give consent to any changes I am only held accountable for what is on the brochure for 2006. The brochure which you can find online clearly states that the provider can cut my phone off if I abuse the network in anyway. Throttling is not introduced in 2006 buddy. No one can be held accountable for a contract they never seen let alone never signed. AT&T would have to completely shutdown my phone and release me from the usage of their network according to the brochure. It can be found on google if you are looking for it. As far as misleading the community I did explain but I think most of them might understand it now. So I apologize for not clearly explaining why I can't get throttled. :D If you are upset because you may have gotten messed over by AT&T or you may have a part time job with them then all I can say is get over it. You are the only sore one out of the bunch.
[Networking] gasolara2002:
Yup because I thought something was wrong until I switched to my inspire then I knew I was throttled. Yes I did go to the retail store because there is an order to do things and I have learned that in order to get your voice heard you have to make them hear you. Call me crazy but I have no time to play phone tag with anyone. You can sit back if you want to and let them control you at will but with me they are going to have to stick with what was on the brochure of plans they printed for customers to stare at.
[Networking] gasolara2002:
Thank You buddy :cool:

I actually wish that could happen. I honestly would be with big red if their network wasn't mainly cdma. The voice coverage is the best in the business.

[General Questions and Answers] teelium:
I've suspected for a while that my phone has issues with it's colors, because I can't seem to use any background without it pixelating (text mostly) or shows very unsmooth color transitions from black to white.

Whenever I select an image for wallpaper, the part outside the orange area has a browning overlay on the colors that just looks wrong.

Images full of colors look very good, it's the black and white ones with fading from dark to bright that looks horrible.

Could someone do me a favor and download this image, set it as background, and tell me if it looks clear and good on your screen, and the text looks good.

I was given a ipaq hx2490b and it is now happily running windows 6.5.3.

But it still has a problem. My first ipaq was a 5555 series model and to get it to detect bluetooth devices I had to search out a hotfix, after this it ran quite well for it's entire life. This new device has the same problem, you can scan for hours but it will never find a bluetooth device. If you try to find the ipaq it will show up under search but won't connect or pair. I have looked for a hotfix but can not find one, this device is of little use to me if it can't find the bluetooth gps as the reason for having it is to run a gps map. Help please.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] porkenhimer:
I know what I am asking is not possible at the moment but I am wondering is anybody working on getting Wiimotes working? I am still on Gingerbread and do not plan on updating til the official ICS and kernel source is released. I have done a lot of research and know that the Samsung bluetooth stack will not work with Wiimotes so this is not a problem that is only associated with the Galaxy Note. Would it take a new kernel to make this happen?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jemal:
Hi all,

I can say that definitely something bad is happening to this part of SGS2 topic (original development). I log everyday, waiting for some ROMs to test, but there are none!

If you check the index thread, it was updated on 22 March (almost 2 months ago).

Also, since ICS was rolled out for SGS2, there are dozens of AOSP/AOKP ROMs in [Android development], but in [Original anroid development] there is only:

21-Mar-12----Batista70 FOXHOUND EDITION 0.3----Views: 1,400,000

I really hope that not all of the developers have moved to other devices or to AOSP/AOKP, but it looks like that's the case.

Anyone has any idea what's going on? Summer is still far away...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Well, just looking through the first page, I saw:

FoxHound ROM;

HyperDroid ROM;

Slim ROM;

Clean Blank ROM;

CheckROM

Not sure what your on about. If your not content with this sub-section, try the Android Development Section, plenty to flash there.

Chris.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
The guy who started the "[INDEX]" threads in both the Original Development and the Development forums hasn't been updating his threads.

That doesn't mean development hasn't continued though.

It was nice of the guy to build index threads, but given he's not really updating them, it may end up causing more confusion like this, unfortunately.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jemal:
Sure, but as I have noticed, there is nothing really to Index :)

There are only one or two sammy ICS ROMs. People are waiting since ICS rollout for checkrom ICS and others as well...

I'm not fun of AOSP so Android Development section is not an option for me.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
have you even looked in there???

It isnt only aosp roms in there

Well devs owe us no favours its up to them as to what and when they build a rom .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prepa:
As far I can understood there is a plenty to choose from... Now u can even dual boot 2 ICS rom-s so there is a lot of options. To develop originally something demands time so patience would be welcome...
[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
Two thumbs

Flashes fine and boots into recovery and can flash files as well. On aokp 35.1 for the record.
[Fascinate Android Development] sageDieu:
I will warn you all to use care with this, it does not play well with other recoveries and roms, and sometimes even with Odin. I used it a lot trying to test things for steve and we decided to put it on the back burner, it is cool but causes trouble sometimes. Basically, it's awesome to use and has lots of handy features (zip queue ftw) but try not to flash anything with it if you aren't near a computer that you can Odin with just in case.
[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
Thanks for the heads up. I did go ahead and flash to play around with it. You are right. There are a bug or two in there. Is there a easy way to get the reg cwm back on like Odin or flashing, or do I need to Odin back to stock first. Its no biggy, just didn't want to waste time when I get home tonight. It is very responsive and easy to navigate though and looks very promising:D

edit:so odin back to stock and then restore is the way to go. I still like it a lot either way.
[Fascinate Android Development] tonu42:
Reflashing AOKP glitched version should work? Unless TWRP messes with the way it handles scripting.
[Fascinate Android Development] sageDieu:
yeah it changes some boot stuff and tries to reinject itself when you flash kernels. Which is handy if you want it but if you don't it causes problems. I was able to flash a glitch kernel from twrp but then it would just keep rebooting to glitch (cwm) recovery as though I had done three finger reboot. I flashed cm7 which put me back on blue older cwm5 and after flashing it again the phone booted so then I flashed back to ics.
[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
It is really a 50/50 as to which way to go, a bunch of flashing or a bunch of Odin and then restore. Time difference is not to much. Were you able to do any backups and restores with it. I didn't have time to try that out yet. I also didn't have time to check to see if the problems made the bug report or not
[Fascinate Android Development] Stephen.k.spear:
Things I would like tested before I include it in AOKP.

1) data wipe. You can flash the ROM again boot and if all is well go back and restore.

2) flash the ROM or Efpophis kernel and tell me what recovery you have. It should be blue or red not twrp.

If those are good I'll look into including it.

Sent from my Glitched AOKP Unicorn.
[Fascinate Android Development] shelby04861:
Stephen, I have not tried those due to time. I can tell you I tried flashing the cwm fixed for cm7 twice and I still remained on twrp. I tried once with the injection button checked and once with it unchecked. Same result but no boot loop issues at all from that or any other flashing. This recovery is a tricky one for sure. When I get more time I will try some of your requests. I have limited time at my home computer lately because of work and studying for a test for work.
[Fascinate Android Development] Dees_Troy:
How did you flash the CWM CM7? If you (or the zip) used flash_image, then you might need to use erase_image first. flash_image checks the first 2KB of the image against what's already in boot. If it matches then it refuses to flash. The 2KB approach works fine for "normal" Android kernels because the first 2KB contains a "unique signature" but it doesn't always work well for Samsung SGS1 kernels because they are packed differently. I've found that I sometimes had to use erase_image in order to get flash_image to work. I've thought about submitting a patch to CM to fix this issue but haven't gotten around to it yet.

TWRP has been tested on the Epic 4G here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622947

And there's a zip here that should re-inject CWM. It would need to be modified slightly to work with the Fascinate, but someone could use this as a base if they wanted:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1651012

I think most of the issues that you'll experience will be due to the "injection process". If your kernel or ROM developer already includes TWRP in their builds then you don't need to try to reinject TWRP every time and we do make it optional. The recovery itself should be pretty solid because we use the same code across all devices (except for the optional injection code) so there's nothing that's specific to the SGS1 devices. Also, for the record, because sk8 loaned me his Fascinate, I was able to add /datadata support to TWRP, so that issue gone now too.

If you do run into any issues, please let me know. It's best to PM me, submit a bug report on github, or catch me in #twrp on Freenode. With over 20 devices to support I can't frequent the threads on the forums or I won't get any coding done.

ill fershur test this after it gets outta alpha stage, i dont wanna screw up my phone

Okay so far I'm loving this recovery, still have more testing, but I'm insanely impressed!

~~~~There is no spoon~~~~
[Fascinate Android Development] remicks:
After serious testing on this recovery last night I have come to the following conclusions:

1:) This is the ONLY recovery that will let me backup/restore my device correctly on this phone

2:) USB Mount doesn't seem to work, but if I had to trade USB Mount for working backups it is NOT a hard choice.

3:) This recovery is one of the simplest to use and most functional recoveries I have used on ANY phone

4:) This recovery is extremely responsive, full featured and beautiful to look at with the theme I have on it. Oh yeah, did I mention you can THEME THE RECOVERY?!?! WIN!

5:) Any more bacon packed in this package would cause massive coronary problems.

6:) If you are scared to try it, don't be. I am using ONLY TWRP recovery from this point on. I'm sold.

So if any of you are on the edge about this recovery, take the plunge. I promise you will not regret it.
[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
my only problem is that i cant restore my CWM backups with TWRP
[Fascinate Android Development] shag_on_e:

[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
Honestly? I used TWRP on my Acer & it was okay, but I did definitely have problems, but I'll try it

Can I go back to CWM if I don't like it?
[Fascinate Android Development] shag_on_e:
I haven't tried that yet, I was waiting for the next kernel it ROM release before flashing just to see if I could get cwm back on.

~~~~There is no spoon~~~~
[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
ill definitely wait till i know for sure if i can get back to CWM, and it gets outta alpha
