if you are willing to go to prepaid you might be able to get it, i had a co-worker activate an old thunderbolt on pre paid i sold her thinking she was gonna only get the 1gb that was being advertised in the $80 plan but apparently that plan is only available on the samsung illusion, so she ended up getting i think for 450 mins, 1000 text messages and unlimited data for $90ish
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Nope.
[HTC Rezound] droidgenius:
Go sprint or tmobile before its too late
[HTC Rezound] sumredhed567:
AOL

Do an assumption of liablity of somebodies line who has unlimited data. That's what I did but I just lost it again because I switched to employlee plan. Oh well 5gbs, 1500 mins, and unl. texts for only 40 bucks? I'll take it =)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] KillerbawX:
Can some one tell me if I am right here. If I do not have S-Off then to update to ICS I have to rip the imgboot file from a ICS Rom and install that first. Is this right.

Never Mind I found my answer in another post.

I have an HTC EVO 4g and it worked fine with Cricket but someone broke the screen so they sold me the phone and when I went in to change it into my name and account, the man said he couldnt because someone changed the S-code. What does that mean?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wyuan:
I've read some people say that wifi is not that strong on the S3... is this true for you? don't have an s3 but this may be a dealbreaker for me..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] dave2metz:
I have noticed that my SGS3 does not have as good of a signal strength when using my home wifi. Especially the range.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] porthole:
For me, I don't think range is a problem. I continue to have timeout errors. I did a speed test and had a good test. But I will start surfing again and I get delays and timeout errors.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Dogzz:
For me work well with low signal
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mattmannlt:
No complaints here. Picks up fast and strong. And full speed too.

Actually better than my previous phone and iPod.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wyuan:
would they be able to correct the wifi strenght with a firmware update in future?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] afbengochea:
Compared to an s2, it does seem to struggle getting WiFi connection when they are sitting right next to each other.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1buprofen:
I have not noticed any major issues with wireless yet. In my bedroom my wireless router is a floor up and on the other side of the house and I can still connect fine with 1 of the 4 bars. My laptop and iPad have stronger connections but the phone works fine. I'll try to find my SGS2 tomorrow to compare signal strengths.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] nonmindo:
my wifi locks VERY FAST, faster than any other device i have had, havent noticed any speed / range issues
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wyuan:
did you get a chance to compare with your s2 yet?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1buprofen:
I just did a test with my vibrant, s2, & s3. The s2 has the strongest reading on my AP @ about -65dBm. The s3 is about -78dBm. The vibrant is the weakest at -83dBm. My AP is down one floor and on the other side of the house through several walls.

I've had no troubles connecting with any of them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1buprofen:
Decided to do another test closer to the AP.

Vibrant -65dBm

S2 -45dBm

S3 -52dBm
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wyuan:
thanks for the tests... do you think the wifi when browsing on the s3 is a lot slower than the s2? or is it not noticeable?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] 1buprofen:
I haven't noticed any slowness, but I'll try to check that tonight.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderbolt33:
Can someone give me their knowledge on what phones are possibly releasing this summer or a website of said phones. I wanna see if any good phones will land on verizon other than the S3, i prefer HTC but at this point anything is an option. Also because of their new shared plan I may be leaving the network and switching to Spring or AT&T because they have the One X and the HTC Evo 4gLTE which are truely top-notch phones. If you can also provide any future phones that the other carriers have that would greatly help my choice. Thanks Everyone!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Google_Nexus:
I signed up for shared data and can't wait only 2 cents more per month and I get 10 gigs and teathering and unlimited calling on two lines....
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thunderbolt33:
So for the shared plan it isn't really raising the prices? The reason i say is that i may switch is that i am not the owner of the account, my father is and he pays the bill, we have a pretty expensive bill for only 3 phones im not sure of the actual amount but he says it's costly.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phio:

[Galaxy S III General] blackguy101:
So after every review video oh this phone i always see that app chat on displaying on the gs3. I hear that its kind of like imessages and bbm (and honest for some reason ive always wanted that on my phone). So how does it work exactly? does it import my number and tell me when the other person is reading the message typing back to me etc or does it have nothing to do with my normal messaging app at all? or is it just complete junk all together that no one uses?
[Galaxy S III General] Poker gypsy:
I believe it's like kik?
[Galaxy S III General] YoungAceAtlanta:
Its just like iMessage but more animated and for Samsung only devices .. its old really .. it was on the first Galaxy S line if I'm correct
[Galaxy S III General] copex:
it works on any android device and blackburry, iphone windows moblie. i would say it's like a free version of wattsapp, i use it to send picture messages.

its kind cool easy to use and it is also works on the PC via a webapp https://web.samsungchaton.com/
[Galaxy S III General] hboos:
It's easily the best messaging app with tons of features. It's also available on every platform (iOS, Bada, Blackberry, Android).

The only thing is that no-one uses it yet. and that's the most important thing..
[Galaxy S III General] pähkinä:
Can't really see how it's better than whattsapp for example? And I think that imessage is better, because it's integrated in the messaging app so you don't even need to know who has it and who don't. Closest to imessage on android is go chat in go sms. It's just that nobody uses that either...

But in the end chat on is really a useful tool for free messaging.
[Galaxy S III General] pdubcramp:
The only thing WhatsApp is missing is a Web client.

But yeah, same story for all, no user base and it doesn't matter if you have all the features and toys.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mutantkeyboard:
backup and restore

did you try to make a backup of your contacts on your SD card and do a factory reset of the phone. It might be some setting. It happened to me couple of times on my HTC while working with the HTC stock ROM.

If it didn't work you might try to follow this guide
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humdhoon:
I've already done factory reset several times and wiped the data using recovery mode too, but no improvement. thanks :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtphoenix:
I am having the same issues. I have 2 of these phones that are doing the same thing. Both have been rooted but NO new ROMS have been downloaded. Both phones worked fine with the stock USB cable until 2 days ago & I haven't been able to get either to be recognized by 2 seperate computers. One is Win 7 32bit, the other is XP. I can get them to show 2 portable drives; however, when I click on either, or try to drag & drop in them, it tells me to insert a disk.About to go ape crappers! HELP!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanabyss:
I have this exact same problem on my Infuse: USB port works for charging but the computer doesn't recognize it and the device acts as if I plugged it into a USB -> AC power adapter, and when I bring up the camera it's just a black screen and controls that don't do anything. I just tried resetting to factory defaults, even rooted it and flashed to another ROM (ZEUS) and it's still having the same problems. I'm just wondering whether it's a hardware or software problem. Anybody figured out a fix yet?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] fred99u:
to be clear, all i need to do is get the the update.zip to switch to gen1

is this correct?

does the bootloader need to be unlocked?

....your thoughts?

-------------

update 1: the downgrade to gen 1 worked fine, as i type this message the ICS update is downloading/installing, i'll keep you up to date

update 2: three updates later i'm running version: 4.0.3....wooohoooo
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] fred99u:
nobody answered me but i found out you do not need to unlock the bootloader

[HTC EVO 3D] deadhead_fred:
Even though we're still in the midst of the ice cream sandwich fiasco, is it plausible that we'll see Jelly Bean on the 3d since it isn't a major overhaul?
[HTC EVO 3D] thajacka:
The worlds gonna end before we see either
[HTC EVO 3D] ridleyj329:
What's the difference between jb and ics???
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
Idk if there is anything definitive yet other than it will be Android version 4.1. So probably performance and bug fixes with minor new features.
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
Hopefully we will see Jb

But probably not android 5
[HTC EVO 3D] kickyoace:
It would be funny if that's gonna be our ota update but I highly doubt it
[HTC EVO 3D] G.Newton:
Fat chance in hell we're receiving a Jellybean OTA. The OG Evo got 1 major lifetime upgrade to GB. So we can expect the same for our 3D's as well.

The differences so far from 4.0.4 (ICS) and 4.1 (Jellybean) are Chrome is now the default browser, and a more sophisticated search widget. That's only what I've seen, there are probably 100's more.
[HTC EVO 3D] xblackvalorx:
Most likely. And I'm sure a few UI changes. They completely revamped androids UI with 4.0 so I'm sure some tweaking is sure to follow.

And a nice slue of performance increases the likes of which 2.2 brought would be nice :) one can hope.

What would also be nice is if it consumed less battery. All the new graphics drain more than people tend to know

Also, since the VM evo 3d is launching with ics, with jelly bean just around the corner will it receive the update?
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
I'm hoping jelly bean brings group messaging. Since no app can achieve it, native functionality would be nice.
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
It's been confirmed with Sprint. They don't sell candy to users.

But seriously, I remember HTC agreeing with some update alliance a long time ago. They agreed to keep all devices updated for 18 months. considering it's been 12 months and Jellybean is coming out soon, we should get the update but I don't know if HTC will folllow through.

Even if they don't, CM9 by then will hopefully have WiMax and 3D so it's just a matter of CM9 getting updated to CM10.
[HTC EVO 3D] runcool:
OMG EVERYONE I JUST GOT THE JELLYBEAN UPDATE! OTA! CAN YOU GUYS BELIEVE IT!? lol!
[HTC EVO 3D] geek4u86:
yup i almost due
[HTC EVO 3D] schmeggy929:
Why stop at Jelly Bean let's start asking about Key Lime Pie. smh
[HTC EVO 3D] maek_it_happen:
I want cupcake back
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
HTC does it :p

I agree though - when I switched from GB Sense 2.1/3.0 to ICS AOSP the group messaging hit me

the work around was to compose a message with all the recipients and then you have the 'group message' set up and can send to all at once.
[HTC EVO 3D] Visionikz03:
Or Creme Brulee after that :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
but that'd be C...

we'd have to go through k->z and back to a and b before creme brulee!
[HTC EVO 3D] a5ehren:
Assuming the driver model doesn't change that much (and that we ever get stable ICS drivers), we'll get it from one of the AOSP projects eventually. I highly doubt we'll see an "official" JB release.
[HTC EVO 3D] runcool:
hmmm when was our phone released? lol. 18 months.... hmmmm I vote that we sue sprint then HTC if it isn't released to us. :) If they develop a product, SOMEONE BETTER INSURE THEY SUPPORT that product! Cheaper to finish supporting the phone than it will be if I sue them for 120 Million each. You know that HTC and sprint both read these forums. I wouldn't be surprised if they have someone that is paid just to read these and keep them informed of what we want and say. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
haha, jellybean on the 3D.... HIGHLY unlikely.

but you never know
[HTC EVO 3D] edufur:
Handcent achieves this and has for quite some time. In fact, no stock SMS app is better IMO.

No they don't. I can send it out as a group text but when i receive the texts from the group members they come in individual threads. Not the group thread I created.
[HTC EVO 3D] ace9988:
I read somewhere that Google is giving OEMs early access to speed up the updates....but they promised to quicken updates last time aswell and look where we are

[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
Hero has ics, Never know :D

Its not gonna be like gb to ics so i dont think well have much trouble, i hope.
[HTC EVO 3D] notsointeresting:
I doubt the 3D will ever see an official 4.1 update. If it does come it'll be around this time next year (this was when 4.0 released about) and at that point HTC will cheat out some excuse where that almost non existent alliance doesn't apply to this phone anymore.

But I also doubt we won't see CM10 or ports of sense 4 with android 4.1. That'll most likely happen

You can follow me on Twitter - @NotSo1nter3stin
[HTC EVO 3D] kickyoace:
Well were not getting jb cuz the otas are ics now for gsm that are released
[HTC EVO 3D] Roca22:
Greetings, I personally do not think the EVO receive JB 3D. HTC did not want to update the sence evo 4.0, so I do not think upgrading to JB. : Llorando:
[HTC EVO 3D] Rakeesh_j:
HTC never agreed to that. Google asked them (and nearly every other major OEM and carrier) to do so, but so far none of them have made any promises. They formed the "Android Update Alliance" to come up with guidelines for android updates, which included mention of timely updates in addition to the mention of the 18 month before EOL.

And with that, you'll have to ask yourself: Has HTC made timely updates to the Evo 3D? The answer as to whether or not they'll commit to the 18 month rule is going to be the same.

This is one reason why I'm never going to buy another HTC phone. (other reasons include locked bootloader, undocumented and very proprietary hardware, closed source drivers, sense bloat, etc.) I've already jumped ship to the Galaxy Nexus.

South Korea feel any users do not know how much of ICS roboto font I would rather rot in Hangul Hangul's all good ... so motsaenggyeotdeoraguyo

So roboto sharing of Naver Gothic font and the combined name nanumroboto (?) Font was created.

If you're a lot of those in need, let's put the font files and font bakkuneunbeop.

Sent from my Soaked RAZR.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Kazahk-Son:
more translation

I don't know how many Korean users here, but ICS's Roboto font is all good except not having a Korean font. It is too ugly.

(The Roboto font does not have Korean font, so ICS uses system's default Korean font which does not suits with Roboto fonts.)

So I made the NanumRoboto font, assembling Nanum Gothic font from Naver.com(Korean portal site) and Roboto font.

I'll upload that font file and how-to if there is anyone who need.

Is this making you more confused? :o

Not sure how it happened, but i finally picked up a scratch on my screen. Now i will be definitely be picking up a screen protector to help prevent further issues.

Is there anything recommend to help buff it out? I'm not sure if its 100% repairable, which is fine. Just something to help conceal it.

Was contemplating using toothpaste, but didn't want to risk further ruining my screen.
[HTC One S] whozilla:
Displex works. Look it up on eBay. Ps stay away from the screen logos. I had an issue on another device

I really wouldn't use any method to remove the scratch on the phone. Just put a good screen protector on it, like Ghost Armor and you won't even see th e scratch anymore.

If the answer of my question is NO,then someone can tell me to install Night elf kernel on Locked Bootloader?

I've been looking for days now, tried everything out there, still no luck. I'm on Straight Talk and I'm using a rooted i717 Samsung Galaxy Note (AT&T) and tried pretty much every method that there is, tried all three versions of the carrier name app. Trying to get it to something besides "HOME" in the banner but every method I try doesn't work.

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

P.s. I'm on stock

**** man :/ well ill keep looking..i dont really have a use for this but its always good to mod little things like the carrier name
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lullabyprelude:
Thanks! I'm starting to think it's the SIM itself. Because I tried all three versions of the app you posted and when it says "original carrier" or whatever it says nothing is by that like it should show.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chrstndsgnr:
I'm also on Straight Talk and never found a way to do it on stock. However, I did flash unofficial CM9 and it pops up as AT&T for the carrier banner. As a plus they even had the APN settings pre-installed.

[HTC Sensation] slvrhwk:
Hey guys,

I bought a T-Mobile Sensation 4G off craigslist last August. Last week, the touchscreen stopped responding (the phone fell down). I tried the solutions given in the touchscreen problems thread. Putting an aluminium foil inside the back cover worked for a day, but the touchscreen stopped responding the next day again. It's not working at all now.

Here's my question. I'm an AT&T user. I believe that the phone is still under warranty. I need to get my phone replaced. Now since I'm not a T-Mobile user, I don't think I can walk into a T-Mobile store and ask them for an exchange. How do I avail the warranty? Please help me out. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
No you.can't go to T-Mobile. They will Ask for your account number. However you can try through HTC. If it's still under warentee they will know. Hope this helps.
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Only HTC as mentioned...
[HTC Sensation] ziddey:
If fidgeting with the contacts to the back cover made it work for a while, it does still sound like a contact issue. That said, I don't really understand that whole deal. Why is it then that when the cover is removed, the touch screen still works?
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Check all contacts and see if something is getting pinched or loose this is all I can think of. Very strange. Best of luck. HTC should replace it if it's under warranty. T-Mobile will not. I'm. T-Mobile customer and the first thing they do is Ask for your account number. But I do think HTC will replace it if it's truly under warranty.

Best of luck
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
I can completely confirm that if the device is still under warranty HTC will uphold that warranty and so any warranty work it needs. I personally will never deal with T-Mobile again if I have a problem with a device, I will always contact the OEM. Just contact HTC they will ask for information such as serial number and IMEI and this will tell them if the device is still under warranty.
[HTC Sensation] slvrhwk:
Thanks guys. I've contacted HTC through the email form given on their website. I hope they reply soon. I'll let you guys know what happens.
[HTC Sensation] Milton515:
Htc won't replace the device, but if it is still under warranty they will fix it for you... Or you can have a friend that is with T-Mobile and get the device replaced as long as it is still under warranty
