[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kingdamian42:
I got my HTC One X about a week ago now for AT&T. Almost immediately, I tried rooting but ran into an odd issue.

Before rooting I had installed Apex launcher. There is an option in the settings to enable Root Helper, which previously would give an error message of something like, "This device does not have root access"

I went through the rooting procedure as detailed here on my mac. The script didn't work at first until I realized I had to switch it to Unix from DOS (Didn't look at the script before running) after I fixed it, it ran and rebooted twice and everything looked normal. Now I tried using the apex root abilities and it just froze and crashed.

So I booted up windows and tried using that to root, but the exact same thing happened. It seems to recognize my root, but not actually give any permissions.

I've tried using other root apps such as uninstallers,titanium backup, etc and all of them just freeze when trying to get elevated permissions.

Is there something wrong with my phone or the way I did the root?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig@xatik:
Have you tried clicking on the su app? I had to upgrade mine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jason.hamilton:
Yea load up the Su app and ugrade binaries. That should fix the issue. Ive had issues like this on other phones.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig0r:
You could also try running paulobrien's root method. That's what I used, and my phone's good.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I've also had a situation where the Busybox version installed on a custom ROM on my HTC Flyer tablet interfered with some apps (like Titanium). Make sure Busybox is up to date. I even had to install a different Busybox installer in order to get it to work right on my Flyer in that particular instance. I had to use the JRUMMY16 version in the market, and not the Stericson installer (which seem the most popular).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kingdamian42:
No packages were installed with the root.

I'll try using paulobrien's method later and hopefully that will work.

Can someone please walk me through enabling GPS on Tasker and Secure settings? I;'d like to do the Auto GPS toggling but it keeps telling me that Google locked? GPS since version 2.1? Help!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
Use titanium backup to make Tasker a system app, then it will be able to toggle gps
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpo1956:
Did that and it still doesn't work. Any other ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
Sorry. I didn't actually test it when I answered your question...I know that for the Notification Toggles app, making it a system app will allow it to toggle your GPS. It seems that Tasker has a built in popup that doesn't allow GPS to be set based on your version of Android, as in it doesn't even let you attempt to see if it works. The popup does suggest downloading the "Secure Settings" plugin, link below. I have no experience with it but based on the reviews it seems to work.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...pYmxlb2JqZWN0LnNlY3VyZXNldHRpbmdzLnBsdWdpbiJd

Edit: Just tested out Secure Settings and yeah, it works. Just download the helper app from within Secure Settings and you're good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gpo1956:
Thanks. I kept trying and trying to enable GPS and finally it let me do it. I'm rolling now!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
Quick question, im looking into buying a cheap chinese phone because 1, im not picky about being top of the line, and 2, because its inexpensive. But ive been looking into and around the internet for supporting information stating if these chinese phones work on Tmobil, AT&T, Net 10 or Striaght talk. Here is the general break down fo these phones

Operation System: Android 4.0

·4.3 inch Capacitive Multi-touch screen, QHD (540*960)

·CPU:MTK6575 CPU 1GHZ Dual core

·Quadband: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz 3G WCDMA 900/2100MHz

Id like to know if this type phone would work with the above companies with both talk/txt/mms but also with 3g full US coverage. Thanks in advance

-Nick
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
Compare the GSM and 3G bands with a well known model at USA ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
But I cant get a straight answer out of anybody...

I know that the talking/txting/mms will work on the GSM bands provided but its the 3g that im thinking about

I see different things all over the place; some phones are 800/2100, 850/2100, 900/2100, and 1700/2100. The 2100 is prob the only consistent band, but i dont know if, say, 900 correlates to western US and 2100 correlates to eastern half. OR the 900 and 2100 cover ALL of US and you need just one of them. Besides that, several phones on I think tmobile such as the HD7, here's a link to what I mean,

http://www.gsmnation.com/htc-hd7-tmo.html

The top says 1700/2100 but the description states 900/2100 for 3g?!?

Heres a link to one of the phones I was talking about that I was looking into

Thanks,

Rico
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
Any thoughts on if this phone covers AT&T or Tmobile? Id appreciate any help, thanks guys

Rico
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toffzter:
For AT&T, the band is 850/1900 MHz for both GSM and WCDMA 3G. For T-Mobile 850/1900 MHz GSM and 1700 MHz for WCDMA 3G. If your phone is WCDMA 900/2100, 3G will not work for both AT&T and T-mobile. You must have at least one band that matches with your network. For best 3G coverage, both bands must be supported by the phone.

Have a look at this phone with WCDMA 2100MHz (800/850/1900 optional) here: www.chinaphonereview.com/samhave-aone-shanghe-a1

Also look at these phones that have 850/2100 WCDMA bands: www.chinaphonereview.com/zopo-zp100 and www.chinaphonereview.com/zopo-zp200.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
Cool, thanks for the link man, I like the ShangHe Aone 3G Android 4.0 you recommended. Do you know of any others? Im just looking for android 4.0 and a nice (not super nice) 4.3'' screen. I was also looking into an Ezio H7 but its android 2.3 and im not sure of the screen quality. Any thoughts? thanks in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toffzter:
I also found these phones with 850/2100 MHz WCDMA bands: Star Xperia S LT26 and THL V9.

The THL V9 has a 4.3 inch screen with qHD resolution (960 x 540 pixels) and Android 2.3 but I think it has already an Android 4.0 update. You might want to check it out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
I was looking into those as well as IHTC 310x or something like that, but the 3g bands are 850/2100 but i need 850/1900. Any other phone references you know of?

Thanks y'all

nick
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamrico00:
Hell, ill take a phone with 1700/2100 bands too... if they exist... which i doubt in china.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toffzter:
Most Chinese phones I know are 850/2100 or 900/2100. The ShangHe Aone may be the only dual SIM phone with optional 850/900/1900 bands.

The Meizu MX has a WCDMA/HSDPA band of 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz. This phone is high-end, with dual core 1.4 GHz CPU. It also has a quad core version named Meizu MX Quad-Core. Both are very affordable for their specs.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seany D:
Anyone make any progress in getting this figured out? I've been looking into buying a chinese phone to use on t mobile and it looks like most of them operate WCDMA for 3G speeds, which won't work on t-mobile. Does anyone actually have one now that they're using?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eljefe0000:
you need one with both 1700 and 2100 in order to get 3g hspa unless your in a coverage area where tmo already supports 1900. in some areas where im at people i know with crapple iphones get 3g where tmo has refarmed thier netwok they are working on getting this frequency to more areas so its wait and see
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airnique23:
Simple answer....NO

I too was looking to buy a chinese phone with hope that I would be able to get 3G on Tmobile. Tmobile's 3G unfortunately runs on the 1700 MHz band. If you don't see that band in the phones description you will only get 2G aka EDGE network on TMobile.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danilynne:
So this phone wouldn't work with Tmobile?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinaphonebelgium:
I don't know for America, and I am not a techie myself, but from what I understand, you have to look at the frequencies the phone proposes.

In Belgium, 3G works on 900 / 2100 MHz, if the phone doesn't support this, you will fall back to 2G.

for the example above

-> looks like you will be falling back to 2G :/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techminator:
It will work

In addition to 1700 MHz, T-Mobile also supports 2100 MHz so 3G will work where you get 2100 coverage in USA.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toolhas4degrees:
also remember when buying chinese phone, their government doesn't allow google or ggogle play store to be installed stock so you will have to root it and manually install this also ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
This is not entirely correct. Part of T-Mobile's HSPA network operates on the hybrid AWS 1700/2100 Mhz frequency where one part is uplink and one downlink, which is not the same as operating solely on 2100 Mhz frequency like many of the Chinese phones work with and many other countries use. They are not compatible.

However, that being said, their HSPA network also works on the 1900 Mhz frequency in most major metro areas of the US now as well as many other parts and many of the world phones do support that.

yesterday i brought AT&T's Samsung galaxy s2 SGH-i777(locked) and i unlocked that mobile through cellunlocker.com to pay 11$ for unlock code..they sent 8digit code..its works perfectly...after that i put my IDEA cellular INDIA SIM card on it..its showing some signal..but i am not able to make a calls..its saying network not registered.....after i restart the mobile it took "T-Mobile" network for a moment and lost..after that nomore connection.

when i go to wireless and network/ mobile networks/ network operators only thing which comes written is "DEFAULT SETUP" and that is greyed out. (when i tap on nothing happens).

also when i change back to my old AT&T sim, i am not able to access that greyed out area.

can someone please guide me through it..??

i am new to android phone..currently ia m roaming with T-mobile network in USA-Oklahoma.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karate104:
First thing's first: never post your IMEI. You should take that down ASAP.

Secondly: I have no idea what's wrong with your phone, but our phone is free to unlock. As in, you didn't have to pay anything, all you had to do was root and use an app from the Play Store.

Thirdly: I believe you cannot select the network operator while on a stock ROM (either 2.3.4 or 2.3.6), no matter what you tried. You'd need to flash a custom ROM to do that (not entirely sure, someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Fourthly: Note that the I777 doesn't have the hardware to use T-Mobile's 3G/4G services. You'll only be able to run on Edge, period. There are no workarounds.

Lastly: To fix your problem, I would recommend starting over. That is, wiping all data/caches and flashing back to complete stock 2.3.4. Then root it, and use the app I mentioned before to unlock. Flash a custom ROM after that if you still want the ability to select the network operator.

Read all of the links in the sticky if you want to follow any of the suggestions I made. And I mean, read all of them before you do anything to your phone. You need to fully understand everything you are about to do before you do it.

P.S. Please hit my thanks button if I helped you. Good luck!

Hi everyone,

I'm using Galaxy SII and I have been trying custom roms many times but I never come a cross anything like that, this is why I'm writing and this is why I need your precious help (Anyone)

Before anyone asks this is what happened:

I was using Resurrection Remix ics v1.9.1 - 4.0.4 and I want it to go back to ICS 4.03 Stock rom but when I tried to make a clean wipe and everything Recovery mode crashed basically it was not functioning so It kind a forced me to flash a rom without clean wipe. (I believe that was a huge mistake). And this is where I meet with SBL.BIN and NAND WRITE START :) First time I flash a rom with Odin it got stuck in sbl.bin mostly... Anyway since then I can't flash a rom keep getting stuck...

So at the moment I can go into Download mode with 3 button, but can't get into recovery mode. When I open the phone at the screen it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I tried with kies but did not connect, right after I closed kies (I made sure that It was not running on the background) I tried everything which stated below;

What I have tried:

Well I tried many things like, using different USB port or cable, Different Odin 1.82, 1.83, 1.85, Different roms only .tar rom or CSC,Modem,PDA type rom and still can't flash a rom cause its keep getting stuck on sbl.bin...

Your help will be appreciated, If you can help me I'm willing to buy you a beer :)
