[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nandesho:
This PSA brought to you by an angry loser with nothing better to do! :angel:

Just to make everything clear and said at least once in every T-Mobile device forum, SimpleMobile is not the best choice when it comes to plans in the $60 range!

For the same amount of money you can get T-Mo Monthly 4G Unlimited Talk/Text with 2gig 4G data. Of course you will be throttled once you pass that 2gig mark, but at least you will still have data!

Recently I was on vacation for a week and found myself with lots of free time in cars or in the evenings. So needless to say queue up the Netflix, Pandora and YouTube I did! All was well with the blazing and expanded 4G footprint of T-Mo, I was like a pig in 3 week old s-it! 5 days of that ticked up a 2gig data total. Right on time comes an angry text message "Your SimpleMobile Data service is at risk of being suspended due to violation of terms and conditions. Call..blahblah so we can say that we hate you."

"Bring it, you prepaid a-holes!" I thought to myself.

I'm throttled to a crawl, but I can always just switch to 2G data only! Download this, download that, torrent this, leave pandora on as often as possible.. All this plus more was my goal! What did I have to lose? I'm on a prepaid plan, what are they going to do!? .. Famous last words, they say.

One day later, the final warning message was shot "Your SimpleMobile Data service is suspended due to violation of terms and conditions. Call..blahblah so we can say how you've hurt our feelings."

Messaging > Compose > 848484 > Info . . 1 new message! "Activation date 6/10/12 ReUp by 7/10/12. Plan: $60 Unlimited Talk, Text and 4G Data. Usage: 129 min, 2708 Text, Data 2753.807 MB"

Ah, what a feeling of great triumph. I nearly manage a gig of extra and probably miscounted data before they could shut me down! (I mean come on, how can you download that much on Edge!?)

/end rant lol. I am COMPLETELY dataless now. I can't even send or receive MMS at the moment. Next weeks adventure: Straight Talk! Tune in next week same time and same place!

Dictated, not read :good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GravvyTrain:
Just about the same thing happened to me on simple mobile. They say its unlimited, but like every other prepaid company they will reserve the right to suspend or terminate your data if you "violate their terms & conditions."

After that happened, I made the switch to T-mobile pre-paid $70 plan. Up to 5gb at 4G, which is great because now I know I can tether, watch videos, stream music, or whatever I want for just 10 bucks more than simple mobile's gimmicky scheme they got going.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nandesho:
I'm fixing to go to a Tmo store and see if I can get a prepaid sim cheap for a few days. I am STILL waiting on my straight talk sim and my SimpleMobile crippled plan is about to expire. I figure that I'll just pay as I go on one of those daily plans until I get the Straight Talk up and going. That way if I hate Straight Talk too, I can just go to Monthly 4G on Tmo.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] IBtokin:
I've had this happen to me before, too. My first week with Simple Mobile I had used up 3GB of data and they completely cut me off as well. Server side, too. I called and called, but there was nothing I can do. They told me I violated their terms and conditions. They tried to tell me Pandora and youtube violate their terms and conditions. B.S.! I used my device as I normally would have! That's just how I roll...

Does anyone know if these are grounds for a class action suit against Simple, seeing as they advertise "Unlimited High Speed Data", yet they start cutting you off after you hit 2 Gigs. 2,048MB is not even CLOSE to infinity!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nandesho:
I think we're more or less stuck.. It's kind of like accepting the terms and conditions to any Apple service, you're screwed :(

I have got my straight talk up and working, but I don't live in a 3G area so I won't be able to test it any time soon.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abnormalreply:
Resurrecting an old thread...

This is my first month with Simple ($40 "unlimited" 3G.) But caps aren't a problem for me. My month is up next week and so far I've only used 353 MB. Starting today, Simple's $40 plan will also include 250 MB at 4G before throttling down to 3G/EDGE/whatever. Anyways, the reason I'm raising this thread from the dead is because SM's website says "**4G High Speed Data available only on HSPA+ compatible phones." Seeing as our phones are HSDPA, what speeds should I expect? Would I even notice an improvement? (Currently getting 300 Kb/s down and up on what they call a 3G network.)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marksatterfield:
I just bought a 99c Simple Mobile SIM, and plan on activating a T989 on the $40 "unlimited" plan. I'll likely use less than 2GB per month, not really sure. I'm expecting that the $40 plan (w 250MB 4G, then throttle) is the same as the $50 plan from T-Mo (w 100MB 4G, then throttle, right?

Tmo $30 5GB 4G plan was great for data, but not for VOIP. Just couldn't seem to get GrooveIP or Talkatone or SIP working well enough to keep the plan.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abnormalreply:
I wouldn't go so far to say Simple's 4G/3G is the same as T-Mobile's 4G/3G. They (Simple) are most likely throttling more than T-Mobile would. I'm not sure if my ~300 Kb/s on Simple can even be called "3G"
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Dr.Gonz0:
Yea they're dicks, I've been with them now for a year using their 3g plan. Never got **** for data usage... go onto 4g (to try out) and they threatened to chop off my ding dong if I went over the 2gb limit. My solution... go back to 3g and not get **** from them

Sent from my ass
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I was on a 2 gig then throttle plan with t-mo, we had a falling out and settled, part of which was them putting me into their new unlimited 4g.

Over ten gigs thus far and no throttle, when it shows up on my bill in a few cycles it'll be $20 a month for real unlimited.

No sure if simple is throttling the same way t-mo did, but I noticed you talking about a big t-mo plan for data, just go with unlimited for $20 and you'll be straight.

Simple Mobile Cass Action Law Suit

Simple Mobile Unlimited Data Scam​

I would like to be the one to start the process of finding people with this same issue of FRAUD committed by SIMPLE MOBILE. My story is of very similar nature.

The attached link is a u-tube video that shows the same frustration we have all been going through.

w ww.youtube.com/watch?v=UjvvMHADHVw

If I pay in full for a full month up front for a service plan that promotes and promises an unlimited (infinite) data usage , I expect to get what I paid for. If such service is taken away from me before my paid month is complete, from the company it was purchased from, with no real explanation and all money was kept without any refund; I BELIEVE THIS IS CALLED STEALING!!!

If a company sells you something and you receive less of that something you were told you would receive, that is fraud.

Fraud and stealing is illegal.!!!!

Suspending an "unlimited" data service for the reason of "over usage". This deception is called fraud!!!

If you have been deceived by Simple Mobile's "unlimited" LIMITED service and would like to be part of a class action law suit to help show them how wrong it is to steal from their own customers; Please e-mail: simple.mobile.lied.to.me@gmail.com

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jackattack79:
Anyone wanting to use adb with your Pantech Burst through Ubuntu/Linux... follow these steps (these steps will make accessing adb much easier and allow abd to recognize your phone)[Please note - modifying the .bashrc in step 1 is not required; it will just make using Android SDK much easier for beginners]:

1. Modifying the PATH Environment Variable will help out immensely when it comes down to making use of SDK tools like ADB. Doing this will also

allow you to execute certain protocols like ADB from ANY location

. So if you're operating from the Desktop, you don't have to redirect to the SDK's platform-tools folder to make use of ADB if you need to make use of it.

To modify the PATH variable of your system, you need to edit your .bashrc file. To do so, in a terminal, execute the following command:

$ nano ~/.bashrc

You will now have the Nano text editor enabled on the terminal. Now, at the very top of the file(yes, that means go to the top and hit enter to create some space at the top. Then just copy and paste - a caveman really could do it!), enter the following:

#AndroidDev PATH

export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk-linux/tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools

Once you're finished, press CTRL + X, Y, and then hit Enter to save your changes and exit the Nano text editor.

2. Now that we have our PATH variable set up, we need to make sure our hardware will be detected once we initialize ADB. However, Ubuntu won't allow ADB access to the Android phone via USB unless the appropriate udev rule is set. This is Bug #316215. In order to get around this rule, you need to create a rule file as root.

In a terminal, execute the following command that will create the rule file. This will utilize the graphical sudo command, so that we can still have control over the file if we're not a root user.

Now, you create a file:

sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Copy and paste the following udev rule in the text editor that opened up which contains the new rule file we created:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10a9", MODE="0666"

Once you've copied and pasted the udev rule in the text editor which contains your newly created rule file, save your changes and quit (Control+X, Y, Enter). Now that you've set your udev rule you have to reboot (shut down terminal and reopen; I also recommend unplugging your phone from usb and plugging it back in) so that ADB will be in your path.

To test your changes, open up a terminal and execute the following:

$ adb devices

You should now see:

List of devices attached

PRESTO01111085383518 device

If you see:

List of devices attached

???????????? no permissions

Reread this post and try to follow directions next time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mifl:
idProduct

To complete we can add the "idProduct"

On my computer doing in the console "lsusb":

So, if I'm not mistaken, the line including "idProduct" would be:

Thank you. Greetings.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] eupharis:
worked for me!

USB debugging also needs to be on. To enable it, the USB cable must be disconnected.

My adb devices only picked it up after I switched the USB connection type to USB Storage mode. Not sure if that's necessary but it could help.

Also, slight typo here:

I think either terminal "sudo nano" or "gksudo gedit" will work just fine. But you should remove the bit about "this will utilize the graphical sudo command" when using "sudo nano" so as not to confuse people!

But anyway, thanks! The method worked and now I am off to the races.

hey guys,

today i took upon the task of rooting my first android device and installing cyanogenmod on it. i first installed fastboot and then clockwork for rooting. all went fine then i installed cyanogenmod. after the installation said it completed succesfully i restarted my tablet but now it just stays at the lenovo logo during booting. i still can get into the clockwork mod recovery menu. i already tried wiping data/cache both to no avail. i can also still boot into fastboot when i turn on the tablet and hold the vol+ button but it doesnt do anything.

i really, really hope i didnt brick on my first try, if anybody got ANY clue, i would be more than thankful:(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Deleted member 4723733:
ok i fiddled around a little bit more and formatted /cache, /data and /emmc in hope of removing anything that might prevent my tab from booting. after that i got the stock recovery menu again from which i tried a factory reset. however, when the tab tries to install factory data it says it failed. luckily i have an sd card with cwm on it so i can boot into it again.

i think that somehow the files needed for a factory reset are damaged or gone. i will try flashing a new rom when i get myself a cardreader, i just used the a1 as mass storage until now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CouttsPhotog:
Well, I'm mad that I shelled out the almost $7 (for an app?! come on what happened to $0.99 apps.....) for Titanium Backup, only to find out that apparently it doesn't work on Jelly Bean. And of course by the time the backup was done and my phone was wiped, it was too late for a refund.

So, do I have an alternative to restore my apps / data in JB?

Titanium works fine for me with JB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Restore of user apps and data works fine for me as well in JRN84D.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stuu.f:
Titanium backup works ok, apart from uninstalling/restoring system apps/data.

You have to give the dev abit of time. As jelly bean has only just been released officially. He will fix it soon.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jova33:
it's not working for restoring/removing system apps on JB. but yeah, give him some time to get it working. he'll get it. probably with the next update
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] synesthete:
It has been working flawlessly for me on JB. You have to keep in mind that some applications or their app data may not be compatible with JB, but that isn't the fault of Titanium Backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tapek-AU:
As above for me also, backup & restore works great and system app uninstall crashes the app.

You do realise there is a free version to test it out though, right? The only reason (for me) the donate version is worth it, apart from supporting the dev, is google drive\dropbox sync.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smeelious:
Like others have said, TI works fine.

Failing that...try ROM control.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theSlack:
When I flashed JB, the first thing I did after setup was get titanium from the play store, and restore all my user apps+ data. That worked flawlessly. As of yet, I haven't tried a backup.

Well, let's see it come first... I'd love to see JB on Wildy but not getting me hopes high.

Here's a video showing the difference between ICS and JB.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5E5revikUU&feature=player_embedded
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djpry:
well jellybean is way faster and smoother than ics on phones with gpu...as butter project pumps up the sysc desktop flips to 60.....am not sure if that cases our little wildfire to get smoother or slow down....hopefully we will get a better experience on jellybean....but the notification bar will suffer...as its 2 small for handing all those expanded notification infos..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackEco:
As djpry said, Jelly Bean uses CPU an GPU together to make it faster than ICS. If I remember right, Wildfire as no GPU (or quite at least it doesn't have 3D GPU), so I don't think the speed difference will be noticiable between ICS and JB. Also, ICS uses a lot of GPU acceleration, and Wildfire's SoC seems to run it with difficulty.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angulardragon03:
Because of the way that Jelly Bean uses to be faster than Ice Cream Sandwich, it requires a pretty beefy CPU, which the wildfire doesn't have. It would be nice to see CM10 or even any kind of Jelly Bean port on the Wildfire but I doubt it will happen, and even if it does I don't think it'll be considerably faster than the current Ice Cream Sandwich roms floating around.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djpry:
it will dont worry.....but in a little while....
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic118:
Short answer: ICS.

The Wildfire will probably get Jelly Bean, but don't expect Project Butter to live up to its name. The Wildfire has no GPU at all. I guess this would mean rendering would take place in the CPU, therefore slowing down the operating system.

arco (developer for CyanogenMod on Wildfire) has confirmed CM10 won't be coming to the Wildfire officially, but there are already early ports out there...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eventcom:
Not sure about this but I'm not a developer :rolleyes:

The early ports barely boot with lots of problems - but reading the respective threads you'll find out that there's no difference to the early stages of ICS ports.

I had the feeling (not more though) that bottom line they found it already more responsive compared against ICS - but that might also change (i.e. get better - or worser) with all those workarounds to be found and done to get missing things working.

To make that long story short: until everything almost works there won't be any useful prognosis. But there's indeed hope that it might be a bit faster than today's ICS ports.

BTW: nothing above GB will ever come to the Wildfire/Buzz officially anymore - ICS has also been designed for phones with a GPU :eek:

I'm sorry if this problem is already solved. But with my English I don't understand all those screen flickering/tearing issues (in the way that I can't imagine how these problems probably look like).

I took a video of the problem:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sorceror171:
I haven't seen that problem with Shadowgun, Max Payne, or Google Earth. Unfortunately, I think there's a hardware problem with a tablet. Try a full factory reset, and if the problem shows up again, you'll need to RMA it.
