You can change the PRL without QSPT if your on a Sense Rom. Check out THIS Guide. Just be warned using certain PRL's can get you into issues with Sprint because of constant Roaming. Also you may want to do a search for the latest PRL's, as the ones linked in the post seem to be bit old.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad The Pathfinder:
You'll also want to try different PRLs in your area to find the best one for you. One will work great in one place but not so well in another.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Just keep in mind, and watch the Roaming ;). Sprint will jump on you about it if there is to much.

Hello,

Does any body know how to transfer files from MAC to my Galaxy Note now that its on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3?

I recently updaded my German Galaxy Note and I just found out that Ice Cream Sandwich took out the feature where i can set my note on USB debug and my MAC will read it as a USB device.

Android file transfer by Google does not work cuz i have my Note plugged in to my MAC right now and it wont recognize my device.

Anybody, pls i really need your help?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richardfm:
Note/Mac/ICS do not play well

I have the same problem as the original poster ...

I got a new Note (on O2 UK), and installed the latest version of Kies (KiesMac_1.3.0.12062_4_1) on my Macbook-pro (running OSX 10.7.4... Lion).

It immediately asked to upgrade the phone to Ice Cream Sandwich ... and then proceeded to do that.

After the upgrade, Kies will no longer talk to the phone ... it does recognise that it's there but any attempt to sync or backup (any sort of data transfer) simply hangs.

The suggestion of using the 'USB Utilities' in the 'Wireless and networks' area does no good. From what reading around I have done it seems that USB mass storage simply doesn't work in ICS and the system is supposed to use 'MTP' instead, but this is not built in to OSX.

Currently the only (rather horrible) workarounds I can think of are:

1. wireless (very slow ... not good enough for music/video really)

2. transfer files via a micro-sd card with an adapter for the sd slot on my macbook.

I'd be really happy if anyone had a better idea.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcarlm:
So I screwed up and got the element error plus my phone had a heating issue before and after root and unroot. Since this is my 3rd week owning this phone and I am past my 14 day trial with Sprint they said they will replace my phone with a refurb.

I have never owned a refurb phone. Should I be worried or should I try to get a new one out of them and if so how should I do this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcarlm:
I would like to add that I have Sprint insurance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Infekxion:
I've gotten refurbs before. They ended up being in better condition than the phone I sent them, although I have seen some people get some bad deals. Also I got a refurb once that was in sh*tty condition, took it to the corp. store and the manager swapped it for a bnib; he thought it was wrong they gave me a very blemished phone. I'm not sure how Sprint goes about things though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcarlm:
Turns out that I got really lucky.. I guess sprint doesn't have any refurb right now so my new phone will be at the sprint store tomorrow and I get the earbuds, charger and every thing new in the box. All they said they want is my phone. I wonder if they will let me keep my battery in my old one so I will have 2 batteries?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Infekxion:

My wife just upgraded to an HTC Sensation 4g (excellent phone!) but it wasn't until after we re-upped for 2yrs that we found out that most of Maine (we live in the Augusta area) is still 2G!!

I'm not greedy, I'd love to have 3G. Does anyone know if/when T-mo will roll out 3G (technology they started rolling out over 4 yeas ago!!) will be coming to central Maine?
[Networking] ctowne:
I know they have 3G in Portland and small parts of Sanford, that's about it. Basically edge speeds in the whole state. Absolutely terrible :(
[Networking] Babydollll:
Unless they plan on refarming their existing 1900mHz band to HSPA+ in your area, I don't see an upgrade to HSDPA (3G) or (+) (3.5G) in your area as a priority. T-Mobile is mostly focused on refarming the 1900mHz band so they can use their existing AWS spectrum (in this case 1700/2100mHz) to LTE-A

In other words....Don't hold your breath.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazzan:
My wife has an Hong Kong sourced unbranded HTC Desire with 2.2.1, unrooted and we are trying to get it to communicate with Blueant s4. The phone did not come with VoiceDialer.apk.

I have searched quite a bit and found various suggestions such as using Vlingo, Choice Dialer and installing VoiceDialer.apk. Non of them really work properly.

Not being game to hack my wife's phone without a reasonable prospect of success, I have rooted my Wildfire (which has the same OS) and tried most suggestions I have come across with no success. (the only one I have not done is place VoiceDialer.apk in the system\app folder - keep getting a fail message)

Anyone got this working well?

Is the best solution to go to Gingerbread? Read something about the bluetooth stack not being complete in Froyo.

What about effective voice recognition? None of the above recognise my London British accent with a 25 year Aussie veneer. As this is really for my wife, recognition of a 'strine (Australian) accent is essential.

Welome your suggestions and advice

Hi

One year ago, i discovered WP7 with a omnia, and this, for almost 4 months.

I left for android waiting for the os to develop itself and now i'm back with a Lumia 800.

i would like to know how could i find back and download easily all the apps i paid before, cause it's like a undred euros minimum :D ?? (indeed i used my email account i had to buy all these apps.)

Thx for help!!

EDIT: found an app on marketplace: "reinstaller"

You can download the apps which you have purchased before by clicking on the button "purchase".If you have forgotten,the app "Reinstall" might help you.

[HTC One X] llewelld:
Hi guys,

I have a simple MHL connector (ie splits into power & hdmi), to hookup the phone to the big screen. It looks pretty decent, but even when connected to mains, (which it must have otherwise hdmi doesnt work), it loses charge while playing video.

I have tried several players (dice / mx).. all play well, but phone cant keep up with charging & playing at same time..

Am doing some tests to see how bad it draws. When I go into system details, phone shows it is charging via mains.. but it appears it cant put out enough current to charge and play..

Would make a LOT of sense to me that the LCD screen (which draws about 70% of the power) actually switched off during playback via HDMI.

anyone know if this is possible or if they can charge & play a video at the same time..

I seem to be losing about 1% battery every 2 mins.

Can someone else test so i can know if It is just a dodgy MHL I have or if they are all like this. Have tried both SD & HD video.. all quite similar results.
[HTC One X] Crabitpig:
be aware

Use the original charger or one with 5v 1a otherwise your phone won't get enough power for example I know a BlackBerry charger has a lower output
[HTC One X] llewelld:
This was with the original charger unfortunately.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
This is the same issue why I wrote that One X is unusable for in-car navigation. Basicaly what happens when under load (navigation, playing a movie, playing a game) is that battery gets into "Overheat" state (you can see this in OS Monitor for example) and stops charging.

My test for car navigation shows that power is drained by 25%/hour when plugged in and Sygic is running. Battery is in overheat state most of the time. This happens at about 50 deg.C if I remember correctly - this looks a little low so maybe they'll tweak it a little, but it doesn't solve the underlying problem really, just delays it...

So I blame crappy heatsink construction or overral internal design, this should not happen under any circumstances (and my iPhone is a marvellous example that it can be done - it is able to navigate and charge at the same time, and gets into overheat only when car ventilation is turned off and sun is shining on its' black body - my One X is white and overheats no matter what I do).

This will sooner or later be the reason why people will start returning their phones en masse...
[HTC One X] schriss:
Get 2 amps charger from eBay, see if it helps. I do have one, but only use it when I really need a quick charge in very shor time. Not advised to use as primary charger, but for powering both: phone and MHL at the same time, it might just do the trick.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
I tried this, doesn't work. The problem is not insufficient current, it's overheating.
[HTC One X] treebill:
2a won't work as the phone is limited to 1a

If the battery temp is 48 or over it goes in to overheat state green and red notification.

If you are rooted you could disable two cores see if that helps.
[HTC One X] Sardonik:
This same issue came up in the Nexus forums a while back. Evidently, AC charging requires that the USB data lines to be either shorted or have a resistor across them (forget which one). Since MHL is using those USB data lines for video, they cannot be used to signal AC charging capability, so you're stuck with the max USB draw of 500ma. That's way less than the amount of juice you're using, so you end up running the battery down. You should be able to confirm that by noting the charging mode displayed while using MHL.

http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/16/verizon-cfo-says-grandfathered-unlimited-plans-on-the-way-out/

Pretty sure I'm going to go in and upgrade to a Rezound tomorrow and then exchange it for the Inc 4G when it comes out.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tnez:
That'll be your last upgrade with unlimited data. So torn about stay with vzn from here on out
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] kg_jettaIV:
I actually think I'm going to pick up the GNex tomorrow to try it out. My wife has a Rezound so when the DInc 4G comes out I can compare all 3 and decide which I want.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] HypostaticOnion:
I'm already on tiered data, so it doesn't matter to me.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
It does me. It's the only thing that has kept me on Verizon (well, that and my wife. that's another story though :rolleyes:).
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] npompei:
Hey guys,

Glad this came up here. So I am grannyd in on my dinc2 (signed 2yr in July) along with a really good old verizon talk/text plan and with a business discount. So all in all things are peachy for me atm.

So here are the problems: the wife has long been up and needs to ditch her iphone from work. Wtf do I do?!

1. Do I wait this out to see what the family plans look like?

2. Or do I upgrade her now onto a 4g phone and get in before the family plans come out? Hell they might actually be ok if priced decently?!

3. Could I get a used 4g phone add that to my unlimited plan?!

4. Should I add her a data line and get her an off contact phone so we aren't locked in for 2yrs?! Is that possible?!

Jezus this is f'd up. These greedy mofos will go down at some point. And here is praying that Google does it from right under their own feet (their own network)
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] demarcmj:
So, assuming the Inc 4G is released before this change goes into effect...

First Question:

Will upgrading to the Inc 4G guarantee that I'll have the unlimited data for the full 24months, or will put the kibosh on it once the shared plans go "live." It seems like contractually, it would be hard for them to do the latter, but given how Verizon hates it's customers, I wouldn't be surprised if they tried it.

Second question:

I'm on a family plan and we still have a few people with dumbphones. Suppose they upgrade to smartphones and sign up for a shared plans. Will my unlimited plan just coexist and not be part of that share, or will Verizon say "You can't sign up for any new shared plan without obliterating any unlimited data lines on your account." Again, Verizon hates it's customers, so I would not at all be surprised if they try that second option.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Rom-Addict:
Your 1st question I'm interested in the answer as well,:

Your 2nd question, I'm in the same boat and was told I could keep unlimited as long as the plan doesn't change ie same # of texts etc, but dumb phones upgrading would havto, as of now the 4g tiered plan, not sure if after they ditch unlimited if they'll stroke you into the shared plan though . Anyone know exactly when the unlimited plans will ditched?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] kg_jettaIV:
http://www.androidcentral.com/verizon-clarifies-new-data-plan-policies

So, I'm gonna wait at least a little while longer. I now know I don't need to rush out and upgrade today. Sounds like these plans won't start kicking in until "later this year" and they say they'll give plenty of advance notice so I should be able to wait for the DInc 4G to come out but it will be my last true unlimited plan upgrade.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tnez:
As far as your first question goes, yes upgrading to the Inc 4g before the new plans come out will allow you to keep your unlimited data. And you'all be under contract for another 2yrs with unlimited. Once your contract runs out you'll still be able to keep your unlimited data as long as you pay full retail price for all your phones from that point on. The min you buy a phone at reduced pricing from vzn you'll be forced on to a new teired data plan.

2nd. Question not so sure about but I highly doubt they'll let two different types of data plans coexist on the same plan.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tnez:
Won't be your last unlimited plan upgrade. Vzn released a follow up statement saying people with unlimited plans will be able to keep them but that they will have to buy their phones at full retail price. Once you upgrade through discounted pricing on a phone, that will be when they'll take your unlimited data away and put you on one of the new plans
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] nitsuj17:
yeah, not really looking forward to buying phones at full price :eek:

verizon really needs to clarify those already on family plans with shared minutes (like me and my wife)...what happens if she wants to upgrade? does that mean i get forced onto shared data with her?

cuz honestly, i wouldnt mind that much (mostly cuz on her own she wont use over say 2gb once i have my own lte phone) if she could still use her upgrades going forward if i could keep my unlimited data
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] anoymonos:
Ok fom my expuerence if you guys have been with the company for a while just put up a ***** tell them you are leaving. Im with tmobile and i get great offers all the time that are meant to be for new customers only. I once got two new phones forget the name and only had to pay tax on them and i got them to order them for me. Believe me the last thing they want is for you to leave them.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] realsis:
whoa, I'm tmobile too but I have full unlimited data plan, all the bells and whistles and STILL have to pay FULL price for my devices! Complaining does nothing for me! My HTC SENSATION 4g costed me almost 700.00!! One good thing about tmo is you do have the option to take the device home and pay approximately 20.00 a month for the device. This makes it a bit easier than having to pay all at once.! But their data is NOT cheap! I have two lines unlimited data, one equipment charge (20.00)

My bill for last month was 254.00! That seems outrageous to me! I asked about it and they said I can cancel some services I have to lower it, such as hotspot tethering ect. But I need those services. I've been with them for ,4 years, seems like I should at the very least, get a reduced equipment charge! But I still have to pay full price! Complaints get me no where.!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] nitsuj17:
complaining may or may not get you anywhere with carriers

a lot depends on who you complain too, how often, what the complaint is, and your history of service and complaining with them

many people have gotten ETF's waived, but it usually takes a series of calls over several weeks and months proving there is something wrong with their lines and services

complaining about your contract and what it contains, depends on what you are up in arms about...i really dont see being able to argue your way into an upgrade AND keeping unlimited data once the family data share plans start...regardless of your circumstances/history (but who knows)

a few years back (2008/9) my wife and i were extremely unhappy with our BB8830s and were each around 8-10 months away from an upgrade (me 4 months into my annual my vzw upgrade, she was half way through a 2 year)...i must have called 25-30 times and spoken to half that many different CR's and supervisors, demanding that they move our upgrade dates up to get the BB Storm (lol, ikr) or that when our contracts were up we would leave for ATT to get the iphone because its what we both really wanted :rolleyes:

basically everyone i talked to gave me the "ok, have fun with ATT" talk and refused to do anything except move *1* of our upgrades up by a few months....despite my carrying on that we had been customers since the late 90's (well i had been) it all fell flat

other times, however ive been successful in getting replacement devices with no ?s asked...wife actually dropped her first tbolt and it stopped working (but showed no real damage) and we got it replaced for free w/o insurance...and i got my fascinate replaced with the inc2 when the speaker failed (and the fascinate was actually a used device bought off ebay a few weeks after its launch)

so its all situational i suppose

/end rambling
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tnez:
I'm in the same boat. We both have unlimited data planes and I'm sure she ain't going to want to pay $700 for her phones lol
