Hey Guys,

Sorry if this has been asked and answered. I am a tmobile monthly 4g customer and I purchased my phone off ebay from another tmobile customer.

My capacitive lights just stopped working yesterday. I know this is probably a good thing! :D Nonetheless as we brush up against the very end of the first year the phone has been out, I'm wondering where I would go for repairs, service or an exchange.

I don't imagine I'd have any luck with tmobile, but maybe you all have a differing opinion.

Conversely, should I go directly to HTC with the issue and if so, what does HTC typically do, fix it, exchange it, replace it with an alternate model, or tell me to go pound sand?

Finally, I am presently S-Off. Do I need to S-On before taking it to anybody?

Your help would be appreciated!

[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
HTC would warranty it in, if it still has a warranty. T-Mobile will NOT warranty it. You have to be S-On on a stock ROM and DO NOT mention that it was ever rooted or anything.
[HTC Amaze 4G] diveoz:
Thanks Hassoon! Had a feeling that was the answer!

Have a good day!

Well FTP app (free fom the play store)

Ever had a data cable connection fail on you?

Had to fork out for a repair.... Nope.... me neither.

That's because I use an awesome app from the play store to

transfer files between PC/mac and phone via my router.

I know as an avid flasher that constant plugging and unplugging takes its toll

on the microUSB port on the phone which you cant ignore.

After all, its the only way to charge.

You need 2 free components and your router to get this working and

after 2 mins setting it up, it takes seconds to use.

You need WellFTP app available free from the Google Play store.

You also need a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) program.

A popular, easy to use and even better, Freeware FTP is Filezilla.

Install the downloaded filezilla.exe ready to use on your pc/mac.

Assuming you have the WellFTP app on your phone and Filezilla

installed on your pc with a wireless connection via your router:

(1) Activate the app on your phone. It should show the following:

(2) Run the Filezilla program on your PC/mac. At the very top left click File>Site Manager

(3) Click New Site and name the device (mine is HTC One X):

(4) Now enter the ftp server address from your phone screen (eg 192.###.1.76) into the General tab, Host box.

Then type the port number (thats the last 4 digits on the app server address, in my example its 2121) into the Port box.

Press OK.

(5) Select the Site Manager button (directly below the File button) on the Filezilla program.

On the dropdown select your device.

(6) This should activate the server and connect to your phone.

A list of the sd card contents will appear in the listbox on the

right side of the screen and your pc files will show on the left.

(7) You are now connected and can either drag and drop files to/from the phone

contents using the browser windows or straight from your desktop. You will see

the transfer details in the bottom window with eta's etc.

Next time you want to connect your phone via the wifi connection, activate the WellFTP app

on the phone and the filezilla program on your PC.

Select the device from the server dropdown as per setup and it will quickly show the phone files.

Drag and drop till your hearts content.

This isnt new.... its not ground breaking but if it means our phones last a bit longer and

we don't need to return to stock for un-nescessary warranty work its well worth using.

I use this daily for web design etc and so far have had no issues whatsoever.

I am not however responsible if something happens to your phone, your pc or whatever.

Use this software/app at your own risk.​

So I'm a dumbass. I was flashing a new rom and failed to pay attention to what forum I was in. I flashed the Revolution Rom HD which is for the international version of the Galaxy S3. The installation failed and when my phone tried to reboot nothing happened. NOTHING!! It's almost like my phone has no power at all. Plugging it in does nothing. I tried to boot into recovery mode, download mode, or anything else and I get nothing. I've been browsing around for a couple of hours to no avail. If anybody know how I can fix this or where I can find the fix please help me out. I need my phone for work. And please spare me the lectures. I already know I screwed up.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] IrefulSoul:
Hello!

As my title states, I'm looking for a ROM that supports T-Mobile Wifi calling!

I do not enjoy the stock ROM and prefer ICS+

I flashed [ROM]CM 9.1 + bat drain fix + other tweaks Although I had working Wifi calling, my data reception was very SLOW. Slow enough for me to type that in all caps.

I flashed [ROM]MikXE-v0.4 and enjoyed the fast performance and working data, but Wifi calling wasn't present.

From what I have read, Wifi calling requires a few things in the Kernel in addition to the Wifi calling APK.

Anyone have recommendations for an ICS ROM (sense or no sense) that is stable, has no data issues and has working T-Mobile Wifi calling?

Cheers!

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
WiFi calling already works for this device there is a flashable zip that has the apk for it + some RILs. Then you need the gan optimizer apk pushed to system/apps. WiFi calling works great!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
While living in China I found that the Sidecar app actually worked better than the built-in WiFi Calling did on my phone. Better call quality, and all calls to US/Canada numbers are free for now. Sidecar now has the capability of using mobile data if you want and have it, but that can be turned off and make it WiFi only.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I definitely need to find time to look at this.

Stock wifi calling is a cancer slowly murdering the end-user perception of this devices capabilities.

One of the things I was working on for Bulletproof was a patch to remove wifi calling from an already installed copy of it. What a nightmare that was, for as far as I got anyway. Still lacking in sufficient diagnosis.

The difference in performance and responsiveness in my rom with stock wifi calling and with that removed as the only change to the install is - to put mildly - is observable just through using it, without a benchmarking app.

It's not something i'd ever use anyway - so I see all that extra load as needless waste instead of a sacrifice for something I want. Conversely that means i'll never find a replacement unless someone brings it to my attention.

Can't say when i'll get a chance to look at it, but it's infinitely more likely to happen sooner then later with a lead to go on.

Whenever I sit down with the time to go learn about something I know nothing about (directly) - such as wifi calling - it inevitably loses out to something like starting on the aosp site and reading every snippet on bluetooth before branching out to other sources for info on how it works in android.

Having a reference point places it in a different category entirely - thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GoPadge:
For me it's a bit of the opposite. I stick with T-mobile for two reasons.

GSM - BYOD portability and upgrades when I want.

WiFi Calling - I seem to work and live in low signal areas. WiFi calling is a Godsend, keeping me connected without switching to more restrictive carriers.

If the official app is such a system hog, I'm fine with it being left out as an option. But I either want it in a ROM, available to install, or a viable replacement must be available.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I was the same way, when I live in China I need the WiFi calling in order to stay in contact with friends and family back home. But, as I discovered, that Sidecar app that is freely available in the Play Store has better call quality than the built-in WiFi Calling on my stock-based ROM. I compared the two and ended up using Sidecar all the time. Now, the Sidecar app can only receive calls from other Sidecar users, that's the only drawback to it versus WiFi Calling.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
WildChildIcE last nightly has it & it seems to work fine although I don't use it all the time. It may be worth checking out since everything else in the ROM seems to be just fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Another thing that I find pretty cool is grooVe IP from the market. It connects to Google Voice and uses your G Voice number for free incoming and outgoing voice calls to any number in the US and Canada, using mobile data or wifi. Works great, I've been using it on an Android that I have that has no service at all on it, except wifi. The only single drawback i've found so far is there is maybe a 2 second delay when I've used it, so I've had to wait for the person to hear what I said. All in all tho I find it great for a completely free service(well, there is a paid and free version of the app).

Sorry, I liked this app so I had to throw it in here. I might check out Sidecar as well :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] siani_8:
I agree wholeheartedly with number 2. I work in a building where nobody using any carrier gets cellphone signal for whatever reason. That is, nobody except for me because of wifi calling on T-Mobile. This device is first and foremost a phone and it needs to be able to make phone calls and if that means a little lag on some silly game being played on the phone or whatever then so be it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pyro9219:
The CM 9.1 ROM you mentioned has the 2G data speed enabled by default to conserve battery. Did you uncheck this? I believe its the only ROM I've ever tried that came that way out of the box. Options > More > Mobile Networks > Use only 2g (uncheck).

Inquisition works well with the right T-Mobile wifi calling package applied (WifiCallingICSAOSP.zip), but it doesn't appear to have as much customization built in (I can't find how to edit the lock screen for example).

I have not had luck installing Infinity and pairing it with a working Wifi Calling package. Supposedly other have, but I can't get a straight answer for the last few weeks when I've tried to find out - even in their IRC channel. On my G2 however, Infinity worked great with WiFi calling, so my guess is that I've just not run across the right package to install.

I'd like to use a Virtuous ROM primarily, because I've been a long time user of Virtuous ROMs (third device now I've followed them). Inquisition seems the most complete, meaning it is the only ICS ROM I've tried where everything worked, including the little LED's for the caps and special keys. The development for this particular device just doesn't seem high on the radar though, and the community around Virtuous has nearly completely died out.

Beyond that, I've not tried any other ROM's for my MT4GS. I'm in a similar boat though apparently, I require WiFi calling, and I want ICS or Jelly Bean.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
use the same wifi calling zip you mentioned. go to the mirror thread download the gan optimizer.apk use root explorer to push to system/apps then set permissions and you are good to go. i have used on infinity for a while.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] IrefulSoul:
You know, I remember seeing H indicators on my signal meter and trying unsuccessfully to look for new towers (Mobile Networks-=>Network operators).

I have flashed again and see "Use only 2G Networks" checked. Even though that was checked, my phone indicated H in my Downtown Area.

I just came from Virtuous Inquisition after reading the forum on Roots.

I ran the ROM for a bit, and Wifi calling kept dropping or staying quiet.

On 2-3 days with the ROM, I tried flashing WifiCallingICSAOSP.zip, and on reboot, Wifi calling would crash.

Was I supposed to do anything special to flash that WifiCallingAOSP package?

Now I'm on CM9.1 + Fixes with the WifiCallingAOSP package, and when I pick up the phone to answer, my phone defaults to speaker. It requires a double toggle of speakerphone mode during calls to get to handset.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pyro9219:
I have the same issue. I've kinda just grown used it.

---------- Post added at 06:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

The problem I have is that it keeps telling me "Reading SIM" in the wifi calling app, its not that typically "drops calls" problem I see most people with. When I try to toggle the mode on/off, it says "Calling Preferences can not be changed as the SIM is invalid" I even went into T-Mobile and swapped out my two year old SIM card for a new one.

EDIT: just tried Infinity 1.35 with the path and gan optimizer.. same thing..
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pyro9219:
I have not stayed on Inquisition for any grand length of time, but the few times I've had it on my phone it worked out well using WiFi calling.

I'm personally hoping that Jelly Bean re-inspires the developers for this phone to give us some great things. I'd imagine they kinda lost steam after so much fighting with ICS.

Will need to root it i know, but can someone recommend a clean and smooth rom? dont want to flash it too much. Just general use really, transfer docs, browsing etc would ideally like something with flash still capable, but speed and smoothness is the most important thing for me.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Sean_Seany:
AOKP build 4 , much more control over the ROM than say CM9/10. You choose what you want and how you want it. AOKP is more suited to the tab IMO as CyanogenMod has to cater for much more devices. Constant builds and updates. Id say AOKP is for advanced users :laugh:

If you like to twiddle with your devices thats the ROM for you.If you dont , then go for CM10.

If your not that bothered go for AOSP Loads of ROMs to choose from , no way of saying the "best" as it dosent exist. Its a personal choice and to be honest they are all pretty much the samething, just some slighty more customisable than others.

If you want a "Stock" experience go for anything that "RomsWell" builds as its generally stable and all the bloat/crap has been removed.

Search the forums for your specific device and check out the official threads for each ROM. If you don't know what to do

ASK

in the threads and people will help you out no problems as we are all mostly friendly and helpful to each other.

First thing you should be thinking about is do you want "root" access ( full control over the ROM) ? Search for your device and make sure you understand what's to be done and you have to correct tools to do it. Read it again, you be surprised how many people mess it up and then make posts for help lol.

Once you are more confident with Android , try all the ROMs out , wont cost you a penny and you can see for yourself then but say good bye to your warranty as it will be void as soon as you mess with your tab. :p If you read up on things you wont have any problems at all.

Good luck and have fun.

I agree with the above commenter.

Usually I root all of my devices, but with the Tab2 I haven't felt the need to.

To be honest I have quite a few of the different Home Replacement Apps and haven't even installed one of them on it.

Runs great out of the box! Just download a few apps to get you started!

One thing I did have to do though is a full hard reset after a few days of owning it, as it was buggy and slow, but ever since I did that, it has been perfect!

I can't wait to see the progress that the official JB release brings!
