I bought an used AT&T Ion in Canada from Kijiji and I'm stuck with it. The guy who sold me the phone knew it cannot be unlock but too bad I didn't do a research before I paid him my hard earned money. And I dont want to sell and scam people around saying this can be unlocked. Hopefully it will be possible in the future and then I will either sell it or give it to my budy.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] derekmhma:
Just an update about carrier lock. I called AT&T and told them the situation about I paid for a phone that I cannot used. The support guy did checked my IMEI and see if they can provide me the unlock code. On hold for awhile but turns out its not unlockable. They said I have to call Sony because this one is manufacturer locked. And I did call Sony and of cause they push the ball back to AT&T. Well I really dont know what to do with it. Infact I like the AT&T ion keypad more then Rogers one. Was hoping to use it and return my Rogers one. Sad. Any AT&T customer wants the ion for cheap? Super sad.

Infact he is the only guy giving as of now. Already sold 17 .. Check his ebay feedback. He seems to have some good links in At&T.

Earlier he use to charge 80$ .. he Lowered it to 60$ this week. :angel:

At&T unlocks a mobile irrespective of any mobile (breaking the 90 Day rule) if it is registered by a Army person and he asks for a unlock.

I bought back in August 2012 my AT&T ion Unlocked from a army dude in S.Korea . He knew its a rare At&T Unlocked Xperia Ion at that time. :eek:

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
Hey I was reading that doing *228 every once in a while is recommend so I tried it tonight but a few odd things happened. When I first tried calling my screen went black and the dial pad disappeared, so I couldn't even select option 2 like I needed to. For some reason right after I dialed, it pulled up some screen that had something to do with activating my phone (which I thought was odd). Anyway, I eventually found that you can dial *22899 to skip straight to updating the PRL, so I tried that and it just had some crappy music come on for about a minute, then the call abruptly ended. The strange thing was my service dropped immediately after the call did, and I had to reboot to get it back. Does this mean it failed the update or not? The phone seems fine now but I don't want to keep doing it if it's not working
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salvorhardin80:
You can dial *228+ to get the dialpad to show up or you can just use *22891 to update the roaming. *22899 updates the roaming but is not designed for phones. I don't remember what exactly for, but it also works with phones. With a custom rom it doesn't restart after updating. I've had it were i'm told that the update failed, but by comparing the prl I could see that it was actually updated. I also loose signal when it's updated, some people just switch airplane mode on and off, but I just restart my phone.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
When you started doing this did it help your signal at all? How often do you update your PRL? I will try *22891 tomorrow, thanks.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salvorhardin80:
I've never noticed a difference. With verizons focus on lte I doubt are building any new 3g towers, but I still update it about every 2 months. I don't loose anything for trying, I doubt it will make my signal worse.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crawshayi:
I tried the #22891 today with better results. This time after the hold music, she did say 'upgrade successful' or something along those lines. My service cut out a few seconds later, and I rebooted with no problems. I'm not sure if I'm just imagining it, but I seem to get better service now in my apartment (I'm on the bottom floor, so it's bad to begin with), but since it's only by a bar I don't know if it's just a coincidence. As for 3g I never really had any major issues getting that, so nothing noticeable yet. I do agree with you about them focusing on LTE lately, but considering how much smaller the coverage still is for that I seriously doubt they're going to abandon their 3g network

I guess this question is asked over and over again and it pretty much pisses you guys off, but i fail at finding some guide or something that gives me the confidence to start the process.

Some days ago i upgraded my samsung galaxy s II from Gingerbread to ICS and i got nothing but problems since then. My battery doesn´t last even 1 day, browser keeps crashing, and i cant find any feature that makes me wanna continue using such OS. So, if possible, i want to downgrade to Gingerbread, is there anyway to do this without having ANY problems with my carrier and keeping my warranty ? Searching a bit through google, i saw that this could be easily be accomplished by using ODIN, but i cant seem to find Gingerbread for my specific carrier and device...

My info:

Samsung Galaxy S II

Carrier: Personal

Current OS: ICS 4.0.3

PD: Can i downgrade from my carrier's ICS to an international gingerbread version without having any problem (this includes saving my warranty, etc). But if available, i'd like GB for my carrier.

Thanks a ton and sorry if this is asked a lot.

Go to www.sammobile.com and download the firmware you want and flash through Odin. (don't tick repartition or use a pit file unless you know 100% what you're doing)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sachidanand444:
Go to Samfirmware dot Com (you need to be registered to download roms) select your device model, country, carrier and download the rom.

Open odin,

put your phone in download mode and connect it. U will see a yellow indicator which means odin had recognized your device.

Select Pda and choose the .tar.md5 file.

Don't change anything unless you know what you are doing.

Click Start.

Process will be done in 2mins...

Make sure you have more than 50% battery when doing this.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] brandogg:
...I work in a cell phone repair shop, and a woman who had recently left Verizon came in with a DROID RAZR that she wanted to try to get SIM unlocked for pre-paid GSM. Unfortunately she had accepted the official ICS update, which kills the GSM hack (that also works on the Bionic and DROID 4). So, I traded her my Bionic (which was on the .2233 leak), after FXZ'ing to .905, GSM-hacking, and editing the build.prop to stay on WCDMA and allow APN editing (which I set up for H20 Wireless). Anyway, it was fun while it lasted. I actually sold my Thunderbolt for $150 after buying a Bionic with a bad LCD for $70 (new LCD was $55), so I've been trading-up quite nicely the past few months (might see if I can trade someone the RAZR for a G'Nex soon). Thanks to all of the developers (and cheesecake prowlers!) for everything they've done. I've learned a lot from this forum, but now it's time to head over to the RAZR forum (which needs to be split up between XT910 and XT912, btw). I know I wasn't exactly a big time player here, but just wanted to make this thread and say thanks to the people that post here.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Mainscreenturnon:
I tried to raise the dpi on my mediapad while running cyanogemod by after_silence but if i enter anything above 213 it removes the home and back buttons and changes to the phone style notification bar. Any Ideas? His Rom is great, Its every thing i want except I want to use my 1280x800 screen as 1280x800. I would post this question in his devlopment thread but xda wont allow my account to do this since i dont have enough posts.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] rurou:
You need to lower the dpi to simulate a larger screen dpi.

Basically if the resolution is equal, smaller screen would have bigger dpi than bigger screen.

Android still use the full resolution regardless of the dpi. The dpi is an indicator of how big your screen is and it will choose the appropriate icon, font, etc based on that. You don't loose sharpness just because the font look bigger.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
As the previous poster said - Android will use the full screen resolution no matter what.

When you raise the DPI, you are telling the OS that there are more dots per inch. The number of dots on the screen is fixed, so raising the DPI is telling the OS the screen has those dots squeezed into a smaller space.

At the default DPI of about 213, you are telling the OS that your 1280 x 800 screen is 7 inches diagonal (small tablet). Note that in Jellybean and higher, a 7" tablet will trigger the "small tablet" interface that looks like a Galaxy Nexus phone layout but still has tablet elements.

On the MediaPad stock ICS ROMs, the "high resolution" mode reports a DPI of 160, which tells the OS that your 1280 x 800 screen is about 9.3" (larger tablet).

If you raise the DPI even higher, let's say to 300, then you are telling the OS your 1280 x 800 screen is 5" diagonal (very small tablet / very large phone, like the Galaxy Note). In ICS this will pop you into the phone interface.

The OS uses this information to scale fonts and user elements. So if an app decides it wants to output text on the screen that is 0.5 inches tall:

- At 213 DPI the text will be 107 pixels tall

- At 160 DPI the text will be 80 pixels tall

- At 300 DPI the text will be 150 pixels tall.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] beyourselfman:
Hello,

just edit your build.prop (/system/build.prop) with appropriate rights (e. g. root explorer):

change

ro.sf.lcd_density=213

to

#ro.sf.lcd_density=213

Best regards,

Michael

ok I just moved from a HTC sensation to the S III, I am really disliking the dialer. Now I am trying out GO DailerEx and it seems pretty good...BUT, when I am in a call it goes back to the samsung dialer until i end the call and hit the back button. Anyone know of a goo0d dailer that completely replaces the samsung junky one? Or know how to replace with Go SMS fully?

I think this is built into ICS+. I just upgraded from an OG Evo 4G and IIRC GoDialer was completely skinnable, it let me choose the answer/hangup button style, position, etc. Maybe we must wait for an update?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
The dialers are just that, dialers. They dial the number then let the built-in phone application handle the phone call. You would have to replace the system phone app completely.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] faroreefer:
Okay... Is that possible? Can they go dialer be cooked in to a rom and loose the Samsung crap completely or is there another all in one dialer/app?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheScaryOne:
You know, I did set GoContacts, GoSMS, and the other Go apps as system apps using Titanium Backup. That was on Gingerbread though, so I make no guarantees. I haven't done it on ICS because there's been no issues with the Go apps dismissing notifications. The only way to remove them was the system remove dialog then a reboot after that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
I don't think setting them as system apps will do what you want. The best bet is to try to replace the samsung dialer with an AOSP one, but I'm not certain how you would do that.

Hi,

Like all of us, I have multiple applications which fetch data from emails, rss feeds, twitter, facebook, etc. For exemple, my Tweetcaster fetch data each 60 minutes, Feedly each 60 minutes, K9 each 60 minutes for all accounts, etc. Is there a way to make applications to sync/fetch all at the same time ?

I was watching a Google I/O session on YouTube, which was very interesting. The bottom line is, to save battery, you should sync everything at the same time, so one big cookie instead of multiple small cookies through the day. Therefore, I am looking for a way to force my applications to sync all together at the same time.

I agree that the amount of battery save would be minimal, but I still would like to know if this is possible.

Thank you,
