What i was refering to.. you obviously did not read or did not understand. Is that people think that the Desire C runs the same software as the Desire HD was supposed to recieve, wich is not. If the Desire HD would have recieved Sense 4.0 the update would not have been dismissed as it is right now with 3.6.

Also if they would update phones with Sense 4.0 even our phone would have gotten the update.

And too the other person about the Nexus phones.

I know that Nexus phones get update directly from google.

My point was that Sammy has a phone wich specs are close to the Nexus S wich wil never recieve this update when it is more then capable running ICS.

I dont think anyone posted this yet. Androidandme had some new info.

It is a One X, not a G3.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gaarry:
It's a One X+ which means it's super cool and awesome.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gee one:
Sounds good as long as they add a microSD, shrink (yes smaller) the screen a bit, and add a hardware keyboard.

[G2 and Desire Z General] popimp315:
Ahhh wtf....are you serious...the one x?.....I mean its a good phone don't get me wrong...buuuuut I thought that's what the one s was to rep. Ya know, like how each carrier would get their version of a specific phone, incredible, nexus one. Hmmm

[G2 and Desire Z General] popimp315:
Now it makes sense. I see what you are saying now :beer: . What I mean is that why release that phone with specs way less than the ones before it with newer software. I mean someone had to realize that it was a bonehead move and it would only cause people to demand 4.0 be released on their respected phones.

Apparently the htc era is going to be tmobile's version of one x called the one x+ speculation says it'll have tegra 3+ which runs at 1.7 ghz. I might just hold off on s3 now but hopefully this phone will have SD card and removable battery
[G2 and Desire Z General] Joe333x:
Im pretty mad that now the rumors are that its going to be the a non qwerty phone. On top of that its tegra 3, after owning a g2x i will never buy a phone with a nvidia chip, they do not release thier drivers and its kills development.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kbeezie:
Know any actual chip developers (nvia, qualcomm[sp?], etc) that do release their driver sources without giving the excuse of intellectual property from their competitors? ... well in a phone that you'd actually want.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MrWhsprs:
Though the HTC Era rumor now indicates that it will be a One X+, I'm still hopeful that a high end device with a hardware keyboard will come to T-Mobile.

My wife and I each have a G2 and though we have SwiftKey and find it works great, we still prefer the real keyboard especially when doing a lot of typing. When it becomes necessary for us to change devices, we hope there will be a worthy device with hardware keyboard in the T-mobile lineup.
[G2 and Desire Z General] misbehave:
Please let it be and HTC phone and please let it have HTC-sense, and please don't make it look like the My-touch 4g slide.....
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nospin:
Doesn't TI open source it?

Either way it's a moot point, tegra didn't kill the G2x, the horrible stock software that kept rebooting did.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Joe333x:
Yeah but i dont have an reboots running cm7 and if nvidia released its drivers the g2x would run ics and jb perfectly. Thats why i wont buy another phone with an nvidia chip because unless they update the stock software your stuck running what ever version of android that the manufacure decided to stop supporting the device. CM9 runs on the g2x but withbthe lack of drivers there are too many issues.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gee one:
Maybe this is old news, but this looks like a good candidate

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-T699DABTMB-specs

I think HTC is going to announce a phone shortly, but I think they are going bigger. Maybe it's the iphone marketing, but I think a 4" is about the right size. I would rather stay on the smaller side of phablet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] amp:
Definitely a low class phone. These days anything with S3 is way too old to be acceptable. But nice find. T-Mo and their truly unlimited announcement is definitely a winner here though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Joe333x:
That has been updates, the box is wrong, the chip is an S4 plus.
[G2 and Desire Z General] amp:
Well that sure changes everything. Thanks for clarification.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Joe333x:
Tmonews just posted a screen shot with benchmark scores. Its beats out the htc one x, im think this is the best qwerty were going to see for awhile.
[G2 and Desire Z General] johrie:
It is going to be an s4 not s3.
[Galaxy S II General] speakerbag:
Hi all,

A few days ago I turned my Galaxy S II on to find the no signal line notification in the top right corner. Upon going to search for 'Mobile Networks' the phone is telling me to 'Insert SIM card to access network services' - I have tried my old and a new SIM card, both have given the same response.

I've tried factory and hard resets. Strangely, after the hard reset, my music (assumingly in USB stroage) is still there..?!

Even stranger is the phone's inability to show the IMEI - my provider has informed me that it hasn't been blocked, something I suppose.

The phone cannot connect to Kies however is recognised by my PC.

Any help/suggestions would be great, otherwise I may have to send it for repairs...

Thanks,
[Galaxy S II General] The-Droidster:
Try cleaning the charging port with a toothpick or swab
[Galaxy S II General] The-Droidster:
Seems like a damaged radio... Better take it to the ssc
[Galaxy S II General] MistahBungle:
Restore your EFS backup. No backup ? A couple of options; search for threads on here about recovering IMEI and or/EFS. Lots of them with various things you can try in order to possibly fix the problem. If they don't work, you have two options.

One, service centre/authorised repairer. If you're lucky, they either won't notice or care you've been messing with the phone & they might fix it under warranty. Two, contact a member on here called Odia by PM and wait for him patiently to respond. If you hound him, he'll probably ignore you (quite reasonably too). He can sometimes recover IMEI/EFS for a small 'donation' which will probably be much cheaper than paying Samsung to fix it.

Edit - READ THIS FIRST: If you've never messed with the phone (rooted it or flashed non-stock firmware), then send it to Samsung in the first instance before you try and fix this yourself. If you haven't been mucking around with the phone, you shouldn't have any problem with warranty service. If you have, try the other suggestions.

Hey,

I wonder, if its possible to get the DDMS working over TCP.

Does anyone already tried this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kuisma:
I've just tested it. Set service.adb.tcp.port to 5555 on the device. Restart adbd on your device (make sure you don't do this via adb ;-)

Back at the desktop computer;

desktop$ adb connect deviceip:5555

Then just start ddms and select your device as usual. Tested generating a screen dump this way, successfully.

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

If you already got an USB connetction to your device, you can change the port its adbd listen on with adb as well.

desktop$ adb -s mydevice tcpip 5555
desktop$ adb connect mydeviceip:5555
desktop$ adb devices
mydeviceip:5555 device
mydevice offline
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EDENANTO:
hey my vibrant brick and he doesnt change to Download mode ..

what can i do ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwillkillyou:
Is there anything on the screen? You down run Odin, remove your battery and connect the usb at both ends, now hold the down button and put the battery in, you should be in download mode.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catman232:
I would like to clarify this a little bit, as it seemed a little unclear to me.

Remove the battery, and connect the USB cable to the computer and phone.

Hold down the volume + and - buttons

Put the battery back in

If that doesn't work, I would suggest you send it off to Mobile Tech Videos
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jason370:
No service, I can't even dial 611. They are not saying it went lost/stolen, they are saying the imei is on some internationally reported list of stolen devices, I suppose straight from the factory; and that seems quite unlikely. I know they have had great difficulty accurately tagging N-7000's correctly in their database, so Im guessing that is the issue at hand. That being said, it is proving quite painful; to convince Att of their own stupidity/ignorance in this matter.

Att says my imei (ending in 40000, which seems generic) was reported stolen months back and during a routine sweep they flagged me and shut me down. After hours of speaking with manager's managers, I finally convinced them I had an original bill of sale from Handcent (note to self, always make sure you go with the big brand name retailer, in case these matters turn up, I emailed Handcent at 7pm est and they got back to me, fully ready to help me by 9pm est, which is 2am in London; that's good service! Handcent you have earned me as a customer for life.

The Att rep said they'd somehow white-list my imei so this never recurs but it would take a few days.Anyone else have this come up? Any good solutions in case Att craps out on me, which I estimate at 50/50 currently? I'm currently back on my hd7 until this ugly matter corrects itself.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Should've backed up your EFS partition. Sounds like it got corrupted and your phone is now reporting Samsung's test IMEI.

That IMEI has been blocked in most countries for many months. I'm surprised it took AT&T this long.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sonkameja:
Join the club. just make sure that you're not using the same generic imei number that got you flagged otherwise when you're calling them and reporting the case then they cannot restore service to your phone

If they act as if your the bad guy and actually stole the phone, don't accept that behavior.

Tell them straight out listen, you paid 600 dollars for your international phone from an reputable company , that wasn't subsidized by the clown circus known as att.

You are paying these animals an arm and a leg every month for substandard service.

Don't lash out on them though. This is one scenario that you don't want them writing notes on your account not helping you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sprintuser1977:
Mine is not the same issue but thought I'd mention anyway. Wednesday I went to make a call and I got a recording that I was blocked from making calls. I'm on straight talk. Never messed with efs folder and always keep backup. Called them, gave them my phone number and all was fine afterwards.

Don't know what the hell that was about.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sonkameja:
Att are run by scumbags.

Sometimes I feel we would get better treatment if we paid for service overseas in Asia and add an international plan for use in the US
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wilson735:
This same thing happened to me. Yesterday (Sunday) I meet up with a friend who tells me that he's been trying to call me for the past hour. So I try to make an outgoing call, and I hear a message that the device has been blocked. I've had the same phone for 2 years.

So I call ATT and after a half hour of discussion, they unblock it (in the conversation, the agent asked if I had put my SIM card in an iPhone 3gs recently, because the system showed that I tried to use a reported-as-stolen 3gs. Of course I didn't, I said.) A couple test calls/SMS and I'm back online, plus they gave me a $25 statement credit. I asked theym if they know who/when/how it was reported as stolen, because I never did. They said they would investigate, and set up an alert to email me if my service was disconnected again.

Anyway fast forward to 9PM and I realize that I've been blocked again. No e-mail alert. I call ATT again, explain it all again, and they unblock me again, and give me another $25 statement credit. Ok, I thought.. Annoying but whatever.

11PM. No service yet again!! At this time I'm super frustrated, wanting to go to sleep, but worried about missed calls and whatnot (when they disconnect it like this, it doesn't even go to voicemail, and all SMS sent to you are lost forever). So I call again and ask directly to speak to a manager/floor supervisor.

She explains to me that the phone has been blacklisted as a stolen device, and that they are investigating and should come to a conclusion in 24 hours. I ask what I'm supposed to do in the meantime. She says that she can reactivate it, but it will get automatically blocked again, so unless I have another device, she can't do much for me.

Really, ATT? 7 years with these clowns and they come up with this garbage now... 2 years with this phone, no SIM card change, no hardware change ever, and they decide that it was all of a sudden reported stolen, but they can't come up with an explanation as of how.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
Check your IMEI to see if you have EFS corruption. If your EFS is corrupt and your phone is reporting the generic/default IMEI, AT&T will block you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] andreww88:
When I first bought my Note, I didn't know there were two different models because I didn't get on XDA right away and all. So, I bought it and went to ATT and they typed the IMEI number in and could NOT get it to activate. They were very confused and said its weird because the boot logo looks different. Finally, he said that I should contact Samsung and see if they would flash a new firmware to it. Wow, crazy. He went ahead and activated my account for LTE (because of the ATT Note).

So, when I got home I started researching everything and found out about the two models. I messed around and got it working and it has been working great ever since with no problems from ATT.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] netboy:
Same exact thing happened to me. I have been using a generic imei since the Note came out to get around att blocking it when they saw it as a tablet. I have been using it for 18 months no problem then 2 weeks ago I get it blocked. I go in and they say it was reported stolen, which was incorrect and they unblock it. Yesterday I get blocked again , go back in and they fix it. Blocked again this morning. I call in and they say the Imei is blocked( exact words were stolen). Revert back to original IMEI and all is good.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jackleung:
Same here

Got suspended yesterday without any notification. Had a chat with the support to re-activate my account. Roll back to my original EFS folder and seems to be fine for the moment.

Why can't we use nova and apex launcher on GB...what's so different in the way the application is developed for ICS roms ? Could you port the launcher to GB
[Optimus One, P500, V General] yachimya:
No, you can't. Apex and nova both use API level 4.0 or upward library which is not available in GB version. I think there is ics-like launcher for gb out there in the market if you are interested to use it, it is called holo launcher.

Very simple, they are all based on the ics launcher :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
So a launcher only based on the android version is only compatiable with the launcher...so launchers like cc cloud,go launcher,adw launcher are based on ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Arjen:
Mostly on the older launchers from donut/eclair/froyo/gingerbread ;)

Newer launchers are most of the time not backwards compatible on older android releases.

But most older launchers are compatible with newer android releases.

Guess the GB users will have to stick to ADW Launcher ex to enjoy the same features as Nova

Hi everyone,

I'm new to the forum, i have been wandering around here the past few days.

Searched for a solution to my problem in to the forums (and used the search option), but never found it.

I have a SGM running stock rom (rooted)

For a few weeks i cant get my phone started without the powercord.

Even when it is @100% loaded (all night load) when i hit the powerbutton, the screen "low battery" pops up.

If i use the power cord and hit the power button, it starts normally.

The battery lasts about a day or two in normal use so thats no problem there.

If somebody has a suggestion?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] anshul sood:
I think that you might have to calibrate your battery. Fully charge your battery and discharge it to zero and repeat the process one more time. Then check if the problem recurs.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
try re-flashing your rom through Odin, after doing a tibu backup
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] sushil888:
I hope u have cwm. Go to cwm, advance, wipe battery states. If not helpful, then go to market install battery calibrator app. Follow instructions carefully in that tutorial. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] tovive:
Why sould i re-flash it?

it has not been flashed before.

The SGM has a stock rom..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domini99:
Its maybe not THE solution, but to boot without powercord, start in recovery and select reboot system now. It should boot normaly.

Definately worth it.. Only downside is after using one for a bit you'll think your GNex is too small!
[Nexus 7 General] Mustang7302:
Technology is never an investment. Two, three, six months later the latest hotness is two years old and worth a fraction of what you paid. Don't buy something as an investment and expecting to recover any expenses in the world of Technology.

As far as being worth the expense of being a useful gadget you will enjoy, yes it is very much worth it. If you spend any time browsing the web, youtube, games, or movies on your phone, using the Nexus 7 will make it a more enjoyable experience and not kill your phone in the process. Tablets are still limited to being media consumption devices, i.e. dont expect them to do everything a PC can, but they do have a viable need in the gap between a smart phone and a laptop or desktop.

The fidelio is a sound system not a charging dock....

I bought a KiDiGi look-alike dock for my 2X and it works pretty well. It has two separate cables (or connectors rather) - one transfer only (powers the phone only and servers for data transfer) and the other one power only - powers the phone and spare battery charger (doesn't work for data transfer). The only "issue" i have with it is that it's quite light and I have to hold it down with one hand while picking the phone up with the other.
