To the people that actually responded, thank you for the info. Although android is far superior (IMHO) to iPhone, I wish they would make it easier to just reformat the internal memory and reinstall the factory OS like you can with the iPhone. It would be a cool thing to have.. Just in case. Sorry for all the BS this thread started, I just love my phone and I want to learn as much as I can about it, I like conversing with people in threads and every other forum is full of friendly and informative people, and a lot of people here are, but some are just rude and try to act like they are so much smarter than you just because they have more experience than you. That is just ignorant, I am an electronic engineer, and I recently graduated with my bachelor’s degree with a 4.0 GPA, so believe me glacierguy, I am much smarter than you. I design boards like the ones in our phones, I know stuff about electronics that would make your mind explode. Just because I am new to rooting and don’t know as much as you do, doesn’t give you the right to act superior and disrespectful towards me. Just do what you are supposed to in a forum and help and advise. treat others as you would like to be treated, always remember that. I would never tell someone that there questions are dumb, I always try to help others.

Is there a reason all the roms are EU based? The US Tmobile One S has been out almost a month and theres still no development based on it. Which is unfortunate because there are 3g/4g issues with EU roms on US phones
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
T-Mobile ROM base just came out

EU ROM base came out a while before the T-Mobile one did.

Hence why T-Mobile ROM's are coming out now.

Switching issue should be a easy fix.
[HTC One S] iheartn1:
Shame its taking so long. The rom is really nice already in my opinion, just the buttons need remapping and the 3 dot menu needs to go.
[HTC One S] Reviewers:
Who? What ROM/Which ROM?
[HTC One S] Ashaman_Kupo:
I believe the stock Rom
[HTC One S] dc211:
I find no difference in functionality between the EU / us roms. The 3g/4g isn't a rom problem. the reason why you don't think there is a problem on the us rom is because there is no 3g symbol with the TMobile US base. Add a symbol for it to the us base and you'll see it.
[HTC One S] DownloaderZ:
Don't forget the baked in wifi-calling
[HTC One S] nickmv:
The 3g/4g problem is in no way related to running EU roms on US phones.

The problem is in T-Mobile's USA radio firmware, that's INDEPENDENT of the ROM itself. Running EU roms on the US, vs running a US rom on a US, makes no difference. At worst, the 3g/4g symbols may be different. The switching occurs at a radio level.

T-Mobile has yet to fix the problem, but has at least acknowledged it. Sure will be nice when they fix it though.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
may have misunderstood

but i do get 3g/4g switching on torxx's 3.1 with tmo us and .16 radio
[HTC One S] nickmv:
3g = umts

4g = hspa+
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
understand that, i thought dc211 was saying you wouldn't see it

i just misunderstood--sorry
[HTC One S] dc211:
Right his rom has a EU base. So you can see the issue.

I was just pointing out the problem with the 3g/4g switching isn't because of a rom. T-mobile US based roms don't have a 3g symbol. It has 2g and 4g, there is no 3g icon for it to switch to.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
understand you now--did know it is EU

and yes, i never did see 3g on my 1s on stock rom

torrx's 3.1 running well though--will monitor signal strength though

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utopia73:
I wanted to make a dock so I didn't have to spend $60 on one. I took apart a usb cable and touched the red black wires to the two out side pins, no matter what I do they won't charge. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] urinsane:
How long were you making contact? I believe I read that it takes 10-15 seconds after being placed on the dock for the charging to begin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utopia73:
I held it there for a good 30 seconds. And I used a multimeter to make sure there was a current too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tech338:
The pogo pin closest to the power button is the ground (black) and the pin closest to the bottom is for 5V (red).

You have to have a good connection for like 10 seconds before the phone will enter charge mode.

Tried the same thing with my Nexus One and couldn't get it to charge with bare wires, but when I got the dock, it worked like a champ.

Good luck.

EDIT: Are you using a USB to a USB port or a AC electric charger? Not sure if there is a difference, as my dock charges with both...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aggie6600:
I had a similar problem when I was testing you probably just aren't making good contact. It takes 10 seconds for the phone to acknowledge it is connected.

Also the pin nearest the power button is ground and the one closest to the bottom is positive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Would it ever be possible for Verizon to become a cdma provider? I know nothing about how it works honestly but if its something they could chnagr and keep existing network they could if they'd have to start over obviously not. Just curious since where I live Verizon is the only choice but GSM just beats cdma on many levels. Sorry if this is in the wrong section or if it sounds as dumb as I fear it does.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
No. They're (effectively) never going to drop CDMA. For the foreseeable future they will be using CDMA as a legacy fallback network. Eventually they'll push to VoLTE (Voice over LTE) and start to phase out

sales of new

CDMA devices, but that's far into the future. They still have to support millions of legacy CDMA devices.

Verizon is too large with too big of a user base to pivot to GSM. Honestly at this point even if they wanted to (they don't), it wouldn't be worth the time and effort considering they're pushing LTE as their next network technology. It'd just be a complete waste of time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Damn. Reading about all the new nexus devices being only cdma has me hating where I live as T-Mobile or att would have no service 90% of the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Verizon is switching to GSM since they are moving to lte and the lte voice. They'll never go backwards to hspa though, and they likely will keep their cdma network for more than 5 years.

Notice new Verizon phones have sim cards?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Ya isn't lte the GSM type tech and umb or whatever its called was the cdma technology.

I was reading that vodafone (one of the biggest carriers in the world, GSM, has stock in verizon) and Verizon decided together that lte was the future instead of the cdma version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cslester:
Even with the switch to LTE, Verizon's LTE operates in the 700MHz band, which none of the GSM/LTE networks will be compatible with. The result will in all likelihood be two separate LTE networks.

With the investment that Verizon already has in their 700MHz equipment, it is highly unlikely for them to make a switch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
ATT is 700mhz as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackhand1001:
Cdma keeps connection when traveling between towers much more reliably as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
But different "parts" of 700mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rakeesh_j:
I don't know whether or not cell phone providers actually do this, (I'm not terribly familiar with how they work) but you can fit multiple carrier signals into the same frequency by adjusting the phase and polarity.

I know satellite providers do this. The even transponders use linear polarity (modulating based on variable strength of the signal,) and the odd ones use circular polarity (modulating based on the directional vector at a given point in time.) In addition to that (and I don't think satellite providers do this yet) you can add a second linear modulation with a phase shift of 90 degrees to add yet another carrier signal.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATnTdude:
Yeah, AT&T uses A & B blocks in lower 700MHz. VZW is C-Block Upper 700MHz. While you could probably make an LTE radio that combines the Lower A, B and C (lower C =! upper C), getting all four bands to play nice is going to be very difficult.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
anyone who can make me a flashable zip for build.prop? i edited mine and i cant boot...:(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
You can re flash your ROM in recovery or mount system and use something like adb or android commander to push a stable build.prop to it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
For what? Stock GB/ICS, CM9, etc?

If you have valid one you can boot to recovery and use "adb push build.prop /system/build.prop" instead of having a flashable version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
i tried adb and Amora Filemanager and Droid Explorer but i can't delete the files i want to and rename my backup.

so i decided to flash GB rom again.. its a bit of a long shot, but its ok now...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blue2107:
Anybody heard of this new car mount yet?

Steelie Mobile Device Holder

They also have an iPad tabletop stand.

Just ordered the car kit cause It looks like a great product. I love this idea!!!

The best thing is that if you send them your case. They'll punch a hole in it so that the magnet can mount straight to the phone and is a little more discrete.

They were originally on Kickstarter and almost doubled their goal.

Just wanted to post/support a (what seems to me like a great product) that is MADE IN THE U.S.A.

What do you guys think?

And no I am not affiliated with them in any way.

*****Update 5.16.12*****

Just received the car kit!

Includes:

1 x STEELIE Ball

1 x STEELIE Socket

1 x Alcohol prep pad

1 x Primer stick

1 x Instructions

Uploaded some photo's to show all that is included with instructions.

Also dims of "STEELIE Ball" (for dashboard) and "STEELIE socket" (for phone).

Will update in a few more days with results in

*Ease of use

*Ease if installation

*Durability

*GPS interference (if any)

*Anything you all might ask in the meantime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evochuck:
Im not 100% positive, but i think this will mess your GPS and NFC obviously.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blue2107:
Me either but when mine comes I'll post a review with pics and a video after some testing.

Although I can't test NFC. I will post GPS results from Google Navigation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wakd:
Looks good, went to buy one for holding my Nexus in the car for $35. Went through to Paypal - shipping to Australia? $45!!!! NOPE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blue2107:
That's unfortunate. Did you try to email them to see if they can help you with possibly offering different shipping options?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geekdaddy:
Saw these guys at a small town fair in Louisville, CO a week ago. Looked like a good product and the guys who own the company were very enthusiastic and helpful. I specifically asked about GPS interference etc. and they said they'd evaluated several phones with no issues.

I also expressed concern about the size/thickness of the engagement point on the phone and they said that they were working on a lower profile version.

Would really like to see these guys do well. Another small business emerging from middle-class America. Gotta love that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] system60:
Similar idea to tetrax, but may be easier to find a mounting spot since it looks like it doesn't need the same sq inch spot if you're not using the vent mounted version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ShredEight02:
Wow, this is awesome and perfect for my needs! Just went in for one!

I have a window mount currently but it's a pain if I want to rotate it at all because you have to loosen the ball joint and then tighten it back up. And it's almost impossible to do it with the phone in the holder while keeping it at the angle you want.

That, and the suction cup will fall off from time to time. I've also gotten "yelled at" by a cop for having it up as well, so this will "obstruct my view" way less!

This is so much simpler to use, even though it will add a slight bit of bulk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shanek17:
Thanks for posting about this here, Iv been researching this product everywhere that I can, but its a hard product to find info about, and whats even worse is that the company has not returned my calls or emails in 3 days since contacting them. Either way I found the steelie product on sale here and I already bought it. http://www.123inkcartridges.ca/accessories-product/ST_C.html and now Im hoping it can be used with my galaxy note i717. Now this is a big phone, probably the biggest and heaviest on the market and im worried it will not work. Does anyone know if my phone will work? Also the steelie on this website looks different than all the other steelie pictures iv found, is the one I bought an older or newer version of the steelie? I already contacted 123 ink cartridges and they assured me that its not counterfeit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thraeryn:
Let us know how the thing feels with a big ol', honkin' magnet on the back of it. I'm intrigued, but think having a magnet the size of a 50-cent piece on the back of my GNex would make my having a pretty custom case rather pointless.

The site also says it doesn't interfere with NFC. I'm dubious and would love to hear from some third parties.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shanek17:
NEVER MIND! the one i bought was a counterfeit... lame. oh well im getting a refund on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] feeth:
Any updates?

I see that they offer the Steelie Magnetic Phone Socket for purchase by itself, but dont see it listed for sale anywhere. Would be nice for different cell phone uses that drive the same car. I guess you could always mount it to a easy to swap out phone case if you have the same phone as other users.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] brezzo:
Just gimmicks for a false sense of security imo.

The only security app you should have is one used for tracking/finding a lost or stolen phone. Other than that, you don't really need anti-virus on an android, unless you go ahead and download every app with 0-100 downloads.

No need of antivirus.Hogs down ram and uses battery juice ,and for what?nothing.

Antivirus is completely pointless.... Only one I would use is Lookout. For one reason only: to track my phone if its lost... But I'm not over paranoid or am forgetful. So I don't use any antivirus

just had my note about 2 weeks, never dropped it and i dont keep keys or change in my pocket been sick and been carrying a paper towel with me, today i noticed a scratch on the screen and its starting to annoy me its about the length of an eyelash i can only see it when the screen is off and at an angel where the light hits it

dropped my infuse on the screen many times and never got one scratch
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gedster314:
You could put a screen protector on to hide it. I had an fine scratch on used ipad I bought, put a screen protector on and could not see the scratch.

Also google iphone scratch removal, there are plenty of YouTube videos about it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maaarius:
Learn to live with it, have plenty of these hairline scratches, at first they really annoyed me, but I cant actually see them when the screen is on, so no I don't care.

But, a few weeks ago I read a thread about some 3M polish stuff that actually removed the scratches, there's some aluminum stuff in the fluid that also is present in the Gorilla Glass, so I suppose it should work.

Google is your friend, have a nice day :)

you can get an antiglare screen protector those usually hide small scratches. i had it on one of my blackberry. and you couldnt see the scratch after that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mactruck:
Ok, I'm on my 4th phone now with same issues. Here are my issues.

1. Random reboots

2. Can't turn phone on. How long does it take? I press the power button and nothing. I hold the power button and nothing. Hold it for how long. Doing this multiple times eventually turns on the phone but its driving me crazy.

3. Full battery. Turn off the phone. Leave it for a day. Turn it back on and it won't turn on because the battery is completely dead so must hook up charger. Good grief.

4. Yellow screen.

5. Phone won't ring sometimes. Loss of data connection 4g.

Am I just one unlucky bastard?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 2kgt:
Too bad you can't exchange yourself.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
4 phones all with those same issues? Seems unlikely. What kind of mods are you doing to them?

You win, good sir.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Hunt3r.j2:
1. Something is causing a kernel panic. This is basically equivalent to a Windows BSOD, and it usually is caused by an application installed.

2. If the phone is off the charger, you only need to press once and it should turn on...

3. BetterBatteryStats should diagnose the issue, and so would a battery calibration run (just drain the battery until the phone shuts down, go to bootloader and drain it again until it shuts down, do a full charge and don't touch the phone once it gets close to finishing the charge.)

4. If it's uniformly yellow it should go away with time. Spots of yellow are defects.

5. Weird.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mactruck:
Uh, your mom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
