But April 13 is a long way off. The networks or even companies can shift. Remember there for like 2 years every phone company either sold or bought each other out? In the next year I see companies merging to combat Verizon and not to mention Google's allegedly planned network.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
Not that I'm leaving but sprint has lte where I live and so does at&t. If Verizon forces me off unlimited, then I would have to weigh my options.

Doubt we would hear anything about that until closer to next summer.

I am starting to think about Tmo $30 monthly plan. Only 100 minutes, but who cares with groove ip and Google voice. Unlimited data, 4G speed for first 5 gigs. Order a sim for $1 and flash a gsm rom and I am half the price I am paying now.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
damn, if verizons 3g network is as slow and ****ty as it is where i am, i can only imagine how bad sprint etc are...then again, verizons is pretty awful, and i get like full service with under 1mbps download lol
[HTC Rezound] Cybie257:
So, ICS for the Rezound was a rumor? Because that hasn't happened?

Oh Wait, though, you might be right. Anything to boost profits will happen, so let's see... ICS OTA for the Rezound makes no money for Verizon (Except back when we were promised it and people bought the phones based on that promise. Shared data plan makes astronomical profits for Verizon, so, likely to happen.

UGH. When will the day everyone would be willing to band together and call Verizon and say "Cancel my contract for your lack of commitment and services and promises for updates." The only action that would ever change Verizon's mind on doing what they do. It all comes back to the idea that Verizon has no incentive to give back what they've took and to make ridiculous plans. People continue to buy, buy, buy their phones and sign contracts.

In the end, it's not Verizon's fault. It's the fault of American Greed. no one does anything about it, so companies, like Verizon, continue to play the game and profit off the lack of revolt for practices.

Sprints 3G was around 56k or less. My old dial up modem would have kicked its ass.

Its tough out there I joked that my cell bill is like a car payment. Really you could, you could lease a car for what cell phones cost.

When more carriers become available more widespread in areas ;). The only reliable coverage I get in South Dakota where I live and travel to visit back home, is Verizon. Sprint / AT&T are spotty. T-Mobile doesn't exist.
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
When T-Mobile or Sprint finishes rolling out their LTE networks, will the Rezound be capable of running on either of them?
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
AT&T faster 3G and now LTE
[HTC Rezound] canthus90:
Well what has me wondering is you contact only renews if you upgrade for line or switch plans. Well you can't switch plans because they don't have any left but the data share. Soo that didn't make sense. The other is if they did Push the unlimited data out I believe that is a breach of contact. I believe they can't do that till the last contact on your lines are up which I have 5 so the latest line out is the only time I can see them doing this. So two years from when I upgraded to my rezound.
[HTC Rezound] Rafier:
Currently in Seattle Verizon uses Sprint and T Mobile towers otherwise I would live in a dead zone. I wonder if it has to do with the city regulating where towers are put...
[HTC Rezound] recDNA:
They're stupid because I was about to pay full price for a.phone to keep unlimited data now I will not.
[HTC Rezound] demmo86rt:
How does Verizon use T-Mobile towers?
[HTC Rezound] Antoine.WG:
They could lease space on T-Mobile owned towers. Towers usually host mote than one carrier and even noncellular services too.

[HTC Rezound] ncwildcat:
I believe it...I was told to expect it while I was on the phone with Verizon this afternoon. I am moving to straight talk..$45/month per line for unlimited everything. T-Mobile and att are both fine...how fast is enough before it is ridiculously too much?? Ask you self that...I am on wifi a lot of the time anyway...lte is nice but I live on the fringe and verizon 3g is ssllllooowww compared to GSM 3g...so instead of paying $260/month for the 3 phones we have now I will pay $135...WINNING!!!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsmas:
Hi, you should have choosen CF_Root kernel at the time of installation, instead of speedmod or notecore. CF_root kernel is fully rooted. Once installed, you can check if you got full root. Then you can simply flash either sppedmod or notecore whichever you like. Kingdroid 6.0 is coming in a day or two. when you go for it, you can take care of above.(seems KD6.0 itself is fully rooted. you get almost all details in kingdroid thread in development section. good luck.

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

I suggest you may downgrade to GB first, then go for the flashing Custom Roms (safe way).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rraaka:
i did choose CF kernel in aroma. but after that we have to download SuperSU from market and busybox and install it to xbin and then reboot and then update binaries of SuperSU ....phew !!

that was hard work !! :victory:

i hope the un installing and installing of busybox is safe from the ics kernel
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lee yun khong:
Retain full root ( credit and thanks to grgsiocl guide)

1. Make sure you flash any GB rom and root it or else flash any pre rooted GB rom using PC ODIN

2. let the phone boot and after that check the USB debugging

3. Download the mobile ODIN from market and make sure you have some ICS stock rom to flash

4. Push the ICS stock ROM to your internal / external SD card

5. Open MOBILE ODIN and select the ICS stock ROM (there is no need for any ics custom kernel here)

6. select wipe data, cache and dalvik and also select everroot and inject supersu

7. flash firmware

8. Let the phone boot

9. Once the phone is booted, make sure you update SU binaries before you start using the phone

10. Select and flash any ICS kernel, preferably CF root so that it gives the recovery for the ICS ROM

11. Enter in to recovery and then flash any custom ROM including Classic ROM without wiping anything

12. Let the phone boot and update the binaries of SU...this way your phone is fully rooted
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] echodreamz:
I've held the vol down and the power button, for as long as 10 minutes. The phone does nothing. I release them and the phone starts normally. The touch buttons at the bottom blink 4 - 5 times, and that is all that happens.

What is going wrong here? I am on 1.85. No root, no mods etc.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
In power settings uncheck fastboot and then try again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] echodreamz:
No change. Touch buttons do not blink, but the phone simple never starts up until I release them.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] doin-it:
Start by holding the volume down button in, then the power button. After the the soft lights blink a few times & the screen goes black, immediately release the power button "only" while still holding in the volume down key. If I had to guess your not releasing the power button.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I was going to say something similar. You don't even have to hold the power button that long (until the softkeys blink), just 3 seconds or so. Then release the power button but NOT the volume down button. Keep holding vol down until you are in bootloader. This, and make sure "fast boot" is unchecked in Settings>Power as previously mentioned also.

Contact the app developer. They probably have to update it to support the ion.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] harrypalmero:
I had the same problem with my LivePhish app. I solved it by flashing the international firmware and was able to download the app again. My guess is the AT&T firmware has some type of restriction.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Lukich007:
Thank you Spectre. I contact with kaspersky two weeks ago, and stiil no answer from where. From my pc experience in russia nobody reeding e-mails.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
I had it on my ion briefly but did not encounter any issues. You just have to manually put in the at&t lte apn once you flash the firmware.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahmonkeys:
Simple fix find out your default gateway for me?

If your default gateway is 192.168.1.1 use these settings..

IP address: 192.168.1.X (X enter any number from 2-255, My opinion I would enter a number in the 20's. It should look like this 192.168.1.20)

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

DNS 1: 192.168.1.1

DNS 2: 0.0.0.0 (Dont change this you will be getting your DNS servers from your router)

Thats it! Hit the thanks button if that helped!

If your default gateway is something different let me know and I will update this post. I am hoping you have a router!?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frigidazzi:
I have been looking for these for a while, but not wanting them bad enough for the prices I usually see online. I bought 3 just so I can have extra one in case I need LOL. I'm sure a couple other could use these. I will probably hook one up to my home stereo, speakers in bedroom, and then an extra. Maybe some day in car if I ever get a phone dock that doesn't have audio line out build in. I will probably never actually use them with headphones (I hate headphones).

Me too. Staples. Followed the stock online and it is very accurate. When you see "not sold in this store", Just means they are out of stock. Keep checking and the same stores will change to "in stock." My store changed late saturday nite and showed in stock Sunday, I bought on Monday, they still had one for a guy on the phone while I was there, and Monday nite it changed to "not sold in this store."
[Nexus 7 General] scottharris4:
Staples. Like the person above said, you can check in-store stock online. My local store had TWO 16GB ones in stock on Sunday when I checked, so I left immediately and got one
[Nexus 7 General] DualSportDad:
Staples is great. They get the nex7 in everyday on ups shipments. Seems like the average is 1-4 per store. Call around 10-11 and see if they have one.
[Nexus 7 General] bvang89:
I found mine at a micro center in my city(Kansas City). Checked online and they said they had 9 left. Called and they said they had 7 left. Then again the area that it was in was wealthier area. Pretty sure everyone in that area had iPads. They could care less about a $200 tablet
[Nexus 7 General] leshake:
Got mine at the MacMall in Torrance, CA. Seems the store there and Huntington Beach have a substantial supply (Huntington had 60 last I checked). In store only, 16gb.

I initially tried the Staples route but there was only one store in Southern California that sold it (Pasadena). Must've annoyed the hell out of them calling everyday. They seem pretty clueless as to when they were expecting shipments.
[Nexus 7 General] richaoj:
I got ,one at staples but just got shipping notification from the play store after I tried to cancel. If anyone can't find one I'll sell the extra 16 gig nex7 at cost just to avoid having to refuse shipment and whatnot.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdfzhi:
First of all, thanks for reading, and i hope this problem/my hesitation could be resolve.

This is not my phone, a friend of mine gave this to me in its current condition.

His story:

The phone slipped off from his pocket while hes riding a bike. it met hard road screen down, bounce two or three times and then got hit by a car.

it then just scattered on he road into four pieces, the phone, battery cover, battery and soft tpu case. surprisingly when my friend picked it up, reassemble it and try to turn it on, it did turn on. and no, the screen haven't crack, not even a scratch on the screen. just some dent on the plastic around the screen and some scratches on the battery cover. damn this thing is rock solid.

then came the problem. out of nowhere the phone suddenly ask for somekind of unlock code. no, its not simcard lock code, my friend haven't setup this phone to ask for simcard lock code when boot, even so when he try his simcard lock code, the phone still showed wrong password.

he dont now what in the world code it asked, neither do i. it asked the password with and without any simcard inserted.

so he gave this phone to me knowing that i know this kinda thing. but frankly i've never own an s2 before, so i came here today as a noob :D

i did own a samsung phone before, a galaxy ace, and currently owning a sony live walkman, so i'm not really and android noob literally.

from my understanding this phone is full stock gingerbread, never flashed, never rooted before.

so i try to enter recovery mode to try to do factory reset, i can successfully enter the recovery, and can choose to do factory reset, but then after confirming to do factory reset it ask for password again.

so i cant even do factory reset from stock recovery. my last choice now is reflashing (i can still access download mode).

btw picture worth than a thousand words eh? :D :D

when booting:

the password request screen after booting:

the stock recovery:

the password request screen after confirming to do factory reset from the recovery:

So my question is:

1- from the booting picture above, this is the "original" s2 with exynos cpu right?

2- any other way to overcome this problem without reflashing? adb access or something?

3- if i choose to reflash, can i do it with heimdall from linux? i'm a linux user.

4- is I9100XWLPO_I9100NEELP4_I9100XXLQ6_NEE.zip the correct stock rom to flash? its not the infamous leak stock ics that caused hardbrick when wiping from recovery, right?

5- if i can successfully reflash with stock rom (if i do, i planned to reflash with stock ics), then the damn unlock screen still appear what can i do next?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
well i would suggest u to flash either LP7 or LPS one since they r official ones, thro odin and check for the issue

anyone else?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdfzhi:
did u guys even read?

i'm not just asking about if i can just flash with stock rom, and i know i can, the only thing stopping me is the 5 question in bottom of op (did u even read it?), and to add more its not my phone, its my friend's, if i can avoid flashing and preserve his data i'd go that path to not flash and preserve his data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scayre32:
I read it all

The advice you've just got is sound, if indeed the story is true. I'm tempted to doubt it, as I've never heard of a phone putting a password lock on itself.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdfzhi:
thats what i've been wondering. and the accident of slipping from hand on running bike is true, i was there.

and the phone currently with me, asking for security code when booting and when trying to wipe from stock recovery, with or without simcard.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
well let me be honset with u my friend, just a slip and the phone been dropped to ground doesnt bring about itself the issue what ur friend phone is having right now. may be something else which ur friend might have done silly and not telling u the same(truth).

the only way to resolve is flashing a stock rom, else ur friend will have an expensive piece of Paper weight :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdfzhi:
i know, but even how dodgy it is, flashing with stock rom via odin would erase all evidence in case my friend not being honest and this is stolen phone or anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
I'm guessing the phone is stolen.... I'm guessing the lockscreen is because after realizing the phone was stolen they remotely locked it via an app... if I were you id get that phone out of my posession until you can confirm it is not indeed a stolen phone..... and fyi the data on the phone isn't the only way to identify your phone... as a matter of fact, as easily as data is wiped on these phones, its not even a good way....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
:laugh::laugh: well now i think ur in a confused state for sure right.

and what do u mean by 'Stolen phone or anything'

2)hasn't he got any proof (purchase bill)from any merchant from whom he has purchased the same?
