I knew what E was, but i didnt know what G was. And GPRS sounds about right. From what ive read its a part of the 2G 3G network. Thanks for the info. But what determines if the phone uses Edge or G?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kameirus:
that i have no clue about

sorry
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
It's all good lol. I'll try to do more digging
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hengsheng120:
Your network strength determines it. If the phone gets low signal on HSPDA then it will try to switch to EGPRS, and if it can't get a good signal on that then it will go to GPRS.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] elesbb:
Look up a few posts, ive already thought this was the deterent. But as posted a few posts ago, according to Spare parts, my single strength stays the same. Its strange. I prefer G cause its like 20 times faster then Edge xP so im trying to see if i can force it to use G instead of E since my signal strength stays the same i dont see how i couldnt.

have "H", why want "3G"?

H is 3.5G
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mengfei:
signal changes depending on the strength, I mostly get H but it fluctuates like if you in a bus moving around different places. You can set the phone just to use G 2G signal if you wish

But for me It continues to mess up. Everytime I open the playstore data turns off and it goes on and off all of the time. Also the connectivity to simple mobile goes off and on all the time. I am really starting to regret getting simple mobile
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mendl2004:
it depends on bandwidth available in your cell, so if network doesn't have BW for you on higher type of network you contracted with (4G, 3.5) it switches to lower type (gprs which is 2.5G)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] HTC-187:
Does anybody know how simple mobile works with Porting a number over to them. I'm using "NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA_V2.5.zip" ROM (by Tytung) for my HD2, and I just called simple mobile and ported my number over. They said it could take up to 24 hours, but does that mean that I can't even call out or see a network until then? Please help me if you know? Thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hjhjhj:
simple mobile runs off the tmobile network...they are just resellers using/selling tmobile bandwidth. i have no issues with my data connection...why not just use your wifi...much faster than even 3g. it can even be an issue with your android build-or your phone setup. doh!.

---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:58 AM ----------

doesn't matter who whcih carrier....you are in limbo during porting. mine took only about 12 hrs. you'll see a network but can't use your phone until your imei/phone is registered to the new network. doesn't matter what your phone os is neither. porting time depends on how quickly your old carrier disconnects you and your new carrier connects you. works the same way with any phone number.

Thanks. When I got up and checked my phone this morning, I had my number and calls worked.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] outridger:
Ok so ive seen a few threads with this problem. My wife is on the nook tablet it updates and she selects B&N instead of go launcher. Ive seen to download the link tgps.apk but that link seems to be dead so i tried the nt hidden link. It tries to download for a long time and never finishs. Ive downloaded a browser thru the nook free browser and wondering if it the problem. Ive got the tgps file on the sd card from when i rooted it the first time, but im getting the message about not being able to open this type of file. So should i try another browser, or how do i get it to allow the use of the already downloaded file?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] arcon2600:
So the nook updated itself and you lost root and now can't get to your go launcher? If that's the case, you can check to see if go launcher is still installed by clicking on the 'N' button at the bottom and going to search, then search for go. If the app is still installed it should show up and you can run it. If you do not see the go launcher anymore I would suggest re-rooting it the same way you did the last time. Then make sure you have the homecatcher app installed so you can set your home button to the launcher you want.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] outridger:
go launcher updated i think sine i didnt see it. i know when go launcher on my phone updates the first time i i go to the main screen it ask me what i want to use. so im pretty sure its the same on the table. the n button doesnt bring the "old menus" like search up because its removed when it was rooted. i can still get to the tpgs.apk by another route but it wont run like the first post describes.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sereogamax:
Hey guys

I need help with stock	ics keyboard (I love it, so please don't tell me to use another)

I type a lot of messages in Russian, and it's very handy when prediction and auto correction are on. But since I flashed Infinitum ROM it's not working.

I checked that additional dictionary is installed and all settings are correct.

I previously used ICS utopia by team passion and it worked just fine.

Can someone tell me what is the problem and how can I fix it?

Or will it help if I somehow rip the dictionary provider apk out of my previous ROM of use and install it on Infinitum? (if so, I'll be very grateful for step by step instruction)

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HyperM3:
Hey everyone,

Im relatively confused about this phone since there are so many threads that are for the other versions(VZW/Sprint/Intnl).

What Im looking for is any help(direction?) as to what I should do first on my Nexus that I ordered from Google Play.

What is the first thing I should do(root or unlock bootloader?) and what should I download(Roms or kernals?). Any links to said advice would be much appreciated also.

Many thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stewartk:
Put sim in . Then battery then back cover . Then best of all turn it on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HyperM3:
Touche...

Thank you for the obvious and the laugh. However, I really am looking to get past the two weeks of thread reading, and get guidance from those who have this Google Play version with working roms and stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catpunt:
unlock the bootloader, you can decide to root or flash whatever later. unlocking the bootloader does a factory reset which is why you want to do it before you do any setup or add anything to the phone

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HyperM3:
Ok, now I saw this, and I might sound newbish here, but the title of that thread is for the VZA/Sprint/GSM versions of the phone. To my understanding, even the unlocked GSM version originally sold is not the same as the current one in the Google Play store.

If the link above will work for all the phones including mine then that is what I was looking for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iGoogleNexus:
Lucky for you even if u unlock the boot loader after u sign in and sync all ur stuff your data won't be erased... something about the Takju version that allows users to unlock boot loader without wiping any data =P

- Google
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
It will work. Yours is still GSM, yakju, takju, yakjuux, whatever. Its still GSM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrianDigital:
first thing you should is jump up and down, and pat yourself on the back for being tied to your carrier for a phone upgrade
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ZachPatterson:
I would unlock the bootloader before anything else...

Then if you're feeling brave (and before you start configuring the device to your liking) flash a third-party ROM based on 4.0.3/4 (The most recent ICS versions):

l'd recommended Cyanogenmod 9 nightlies if you like to be on the bleeding edge (Although you might have to get used to flashing EVERY day, which isn't so bad once you get used to it)

Or, moving to something like LiquidSmooth (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1555667)

or

EaglesBlood ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1388728).

Each of which will bring different things to the table, you'll have to do your research as to which one you'd like if you go that way.

Alternatively, just stay on stock ROM and enjoy your phone the way they intended you to...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HyperM3:
^ Thank you for that. I was actually confused as to what order Im supposed to do things(root, unlock bootloader...Rom...Kernal??)

Ive seen a lot of positive reviews for an AOKP rom and a Frances(?) Kernal. Anyone agree they make a good match?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
You unlock the bootloader first because it wipes your phone, SD card as well.

Flash clockwork mod recovery.

Flash a custom rom and kernel.

Sorted.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
The guide I wrote (previously linked) details how you can also back up your applications (not that you'll really have any to begin with...but if you decide to wait) without root.

Then unlock and restore...and backup again with titanium for all future restorations.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veritasaequita:
I do recall in terminal emulator I used to be able to "su" and then "reboot recovery", straight to recovery I would go. Maybe my memory is foggy and perhaps it was my nexus one and G2 that did it and not this phone. I think at one point it worked on this device, now It just returns "sh: reboot: not found" . Was this perhaps something that changed from GB/ICS? Any insight would be helpful. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rujelus22:
Nope it works great. I just checked it on my ICS build
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
In order for it it work there has to be the reboot binary in sbin and xbin. If reboot isn't working in terminal check those direcotories and make sure there is a reboot. If it isn't there. Find a ROM that has it and copy the file into both directories and set permissions. Not sure right off what the permissions are but look at the permissions of a file already in there and set the new file to the same.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veritasaequita:
cool thanks for the info. ill look and see but if memory serves me correct it hasn't worked on any custom ics that ive ran yet. i still cant remember if blazer on GB did it or not.

thanks for the heads up..i do have to admit yours is one of the only 2 ics i haven't ran yet. ima check it out tonight though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
It is something being removed, rather than added, as it works in stock ICS (and GB) using the ODIN OneClicks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veritasaequita:
cool thanks for the heads up mr. hub. just throwing this out there but i can recall a time back when i would flash most custom roms there was a t.emu that showed in sayyy titanium backup but couldnt be run. i would generally download a 2nd t.emu from the play store like the one in the pic and the reboot commands worked. im currently on frankenstein ego rom and upon fresh flash there is no t.emu showing in titanium backup. Like previous times i just grabbed it from play store and it was a "no go". could that be the issue of what is being taken away?

just wanted to throw this pic up because this is deff different than the "root" response i used to get.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
Do this..

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system

ln -s /sbin/recovery /system/bin/reboot

mount -o remount,ro /system

reboot recovery

Or something like that..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veritasaequita:
thanks chris, that did it. anybody have any thoughts on that 2nd pic i posted? with the "whoami" it used to always return "root" up until about the same time i noticed the reboot issue. i guess that one confuses me because i tuped "su" and the superuser allow/deny popped up and i clicked allow as isual. so with knowing that it seems odd to me that "whoami" returns "unknown". is that the same issue that was stopping the reboot command? sorry guys, i know its not real important it just helps me understand a little better about how things work.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mesheeka:
I had the same problem. Dropped the phone from 2 feet and it would take forever to go to landscape and never go back to portrait. I flashed a ROM that morning before work and didn't get a chance to test anything till after the drop. I thought it was the ROM so I flashed a stock ROM and the problem persisted. So I flashed like 5 different ROMs and the problem persisted, then I realized that the gyro or accelerometer broke that day I dropped it. I downloaded an app to read sensor data, tried it on a couple of GB and ICS ROMs and the accel and gyro readings were always screwy. The funny thing is that when I took it to sprint they thought they were going to fix it with a factory reset. The guy came back out 10 minutes later confident it was fixed and the problem persisted. He didn't know that I had done extensive testing to find the root of the problem. Take it in let them do whatever they do then get a new one from warranty.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Thanks it managed to fix itself. Panning doesn't work still, but getting it replaced would be more trouble for me than for them for something I don't even like.

[Xperia Arc General] viiv:
Just wondering if anyone has brought an unbranded Arc S from Sonystyle.com in the US. Did yours come with a second screen protector in the box as the unlocked ones do in Europe? Or any other unlocked Xperia phone from Sonystyle.com such as the Neo V, anyone get a second screen protector? Thanks,
[Xperia Arc General] Lusterboi:
Mine came with a second screen protector. Girlfriend wasted it though. She put it on without knowing there is one on already
[Xperia Arc General] viiv:
Nope she did the right thing. Go thank her now ;) This is what Sony support has to say about the screen protector confusion:

The scratch resistant screen is covered in a non-scratch resistant anti-shatter laminate sheet that will reduce the likelihood of the screen cracking or shattering. This is NOT the top layer intended as the laminate sheet is very easily scratched and attracts lots of dust and fingerprints. You are then supposed to put a screen protector over this laminate sheet which will do a much better job of resisting dirt, fingerprints and scratches than the laminate sheet. One is included in the Xperia packaging in unbranded models. The preinstalled laminate sheet is glued down. It can come off but it will leave a glue residue on the screen that is not easy to get off. The second layer screen protector included with unbranded models just bonds through natural static adhesion onto the laminate sheet rather than a glue.

The laminate sheet can not be replaced on its own after removal from the screen. The laminate sheet is bonded to the screen with heat as part of the production process in order to properly fuse to the glass and give it its anti-shatter properties. The laminate sheet is not sold on its own as a part and the only way to replace a damaged or removed laminate sheet is to replace the entire front screen glass panel assembly. As such Sony highly recommends you immediatly install the screen protector included with direct from Sony unbranded Xperia models or purchase a commercially available screen protector for carrier branded units.

The S3 firmware has been out for a while and it comes with lot of suprises! Like it is 1GB in total! :eek:

Another surprise is that it comes with S-Voice and Many more features! Currently, I have tested S-Voice on AOSP ROM (SGS2! DUH!)

On to the How-To guide:

Things Needed:

AOSP or CM9

APKs package from here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1662050 (All APPs are included so that you can play and test all of them if they work)

Patience :D

Process:

Just Find the voicetalk.apk and put it on your device.

Make sure Third-Party Apps are allowed to install!

Now go to that apk with a File Manager on your device.

Then just install it as a normal apk and there you go!

Congrats you have S-Voice!

It's kinda slow due to slow connection between Samsung servers but still it's Awesome! :D
