[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crisisx1:
Sorry If has been asked, I searched and found no thread similar with the name.

But my T Mobile 2 year contract expires soon, and I was thinking of switching BACK over to Simple Mobile, Unlimited everything 50$ a month.

I am guessing there shouldn't be a problem since simple mobile use t mobiles network towers, but I just want to make sure. Thank You.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ijip:
it will be fine, simple mobile runs on tmobile. Just do some research on howard forums on prepaid networks. Simple mobile is good if you have to do some international calls as they give u 5 bix a month credit for their unlimited plam.

However based on reports i have read, their unlimited is really about 2gigs. And sometimes they may even cut off data completely. With Straight talk you can choose between tmobile and att and they only throttle you.....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sLiKK:
So are you saying simple mobile's data on their $50 plan is only 2 gig? How about their $40 plan...im planning on getting that!!!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UberSlackr:
Actually, not he $50 SimpleMobile plan is not limited to 2gigs, its "Unlimited" - To what they define as "Unlimited" I can not say for certain.

They claim to be truly Unlimited; After speaking with their Customer Service, they stated they have not data cap. They will have ever Throttle your speeds (from 4G to 3G) if you violate their TOU/T&C (which you can find on their website; and states crap like do not run a server over their network [technically t-mobiles network] no pirating stuff, etc.. the usual stuff)

With the $40 plan, you are limited to 250mb of 4G, so why not spend the extra $10 and have "Unlimited"

My cousin uses Simple Mobile in Florida, he uses the hell out of it.. He turns his Nexus7 into a Hotspot and connects his laptop to it (while this is a violation of the T&C) and he has yet to be throttled or had service terminated... (the trick to the Hotspot/Tether is to mirror your laptops MAC to that of the device you have the data service through, so they don't notice 2 different device accessing the same data connection)

So you get the $50 Unlimited plan, you max out your usage, they throttle you, you wait until the next month to start fresh, or you Port your number to a new carrier and max out that internet.. No where in the US will you find truly Unlimited Data anymore (Sprint Lies!)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zman0900:
Sprints definitely unlimited...I once used 30gb of their 4g wimax in a month tethering a dd-wrt router to my whole house while time warner was down. But that apartment seemed to be the only place in the city where 4g worked well. Everywhere else its 100kbps max 3g. Lots of places barely get 10kbps and have >1 sec ping. Really hope my nexus 4 gets here soon so I can kick sprint to the curb.

Also check your crappy local stores for simple mobile sims. I just bought one from a shady liquor store for less than the website.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] helstonrampersad:
From personal experience the $40 plan is capped at 2gigs then throttled and $50 plan is capped at 5gigs then they cut it of completely so I switched to T-Mobile $30 100 minutes unlimited text and 5gigs of 4g data then I get throttled

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

SENT FROM THE HYPERBOLIC TIME CHAMBER
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockcycle:
OK IMHO if you're considering simple mobile, which is a tracfone, I would recommend getting straight talk/telcel $45 or net10 $50 byop tmobile Sim instead (also tracfone). You can use telcel or net10 that can be bought on ebay for $1 interchanably. NOTE this is NOT the same when using the AT&T byop Sim.

At least they are sorta *unlimited... Simple mobile has these issues; 2gb high speed then throttled, 2gb cap, or instant throttle at 119Kbs from day one.

I am in Florida and I speak from experience, but this may have changed since tmobile themselves changed their $70 from 5gb to unlimited recently.

*I've seen a data screen cap or someone claiming having used 100gb without issues.

I also used T-Mobile/Walmart $30 plan but 100 min was not enough for me, even when using VoIP calling. I also hit the 5gb data limit.

Switched back to st but using tmo byop Sim this time. Got refills currently from $33-42/m no taxes but its not always the case.

YMMV
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcop:
If you can live with the data cap look into ptel. Their $40.00 unlimited plan is the same as simple mobile's. Your can order a sim and $40.00 pin and use the promo code "ptelslick20" and pay $20.00. The pins are good for a year so order 12 of these. I am switching when my 30 days expire with simple mobile
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2915683:
Simple Mobile raised their 50 dollar plan to 55 dollars after taxes and fees etc. Thinking about switching to Straight Talk.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockcycle:
Nice find, thanks for sharing. I got some of the $99/90day refills for straight talk. But that might not be bad for mom or dad, anyone that doesn't use much but likes the choice..

I order so many pins for my family and friends that they called me to make sure it wasn't a mistake:)

Simple Mobile Sim

I didn't want to create another thread but hoping someone can answer this since it's related to my Nexus 4 and Simple mobile.

I already am using Simple Mobile on my Gnex, but can I cut my sim that I am currently using and stick it in my N4? I am following these instructions: http://www.airportal.de/nanosim/

Any tips or tricks or warnings will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if there is a slim version of an extended battery? I have the onite 4300mah extended battery and it last all day, but I don't like the fact that it's a lot heavier than the phone with the stock battery. I don't need that much power. Just something to get me an hour or two more out of my phone. Something a little higher than the 2100mah. Any thoughts? Also if this post already exist, please delete this one, I apologize if there is one I was unable to locate it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] amzi:
Hm. im afraid not... You could always underclock your phone or root... but i seriously am blanking out i honestly think there is no "slim" version of the extended battery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Naldonnis:
Well I mean instead of me having a 2100 mah is there somethin little higher capacity or does someone know of a website that sells extended battery doors. I have the onite extended battery and I might just stick with that but the back door broke for the phone and I don't know of anyone who sells a pebble blue extended battery cover.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] amzi:
You could get one of those samsung flip covers which is basically a battery cover and a screen cover

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Naldonnis:
Really appreciate it. Did they mention if it will ad any extra width to the phone? Also do you have a link?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Naldonnis:
Was just wondering if you know if that battery will add any thickness to the phone. Also could you provide a link to the website? Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] camster91:
You can find a bunch on eBay. They even have 3000mah from china. I just bought 2 2800 from USA for like $15 they are the same physical size as stock battery. Just search i747 battery on eBay.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HiKsFiles:
Are they NFC enabled like the stock battery is ?

Remember that on the GS3, NFC is built into the battery itself, not onto the phone.

Of course, if you don't need it...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhomiec:
i recently received my 2300 mAh Onite with NFC from Amazon.

so far, it's providing me with just a few more hours. which is all i needed anyways, and keeping the same battery cover.

i also have a CellularFactory 4500 mAh with NFC that provides me with 2 days of battery that i use when traveling.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Naldonnis:
With the slim battery, how long is your screen time? I think with stock I can hit about 3 hours before I have to charge the phone.

Looks like Verizon will be getting Jelly Bean 4.1.1 soon. Any AT&T love?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Wait 12 days dude. The devices haven't even been released so that means that source code hasn't even been released yet.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aabaaf:
Wait 12 days for what? What devices haven't been released yet? If you're talking about Nexus 4, that's not what I'm talking about, and the Nexus 4, is Jelly Bean 4.2, not 4.1.1, which is what I was talking about. If Sprint can release it, and Verizon can leak it, why can't AT&T at least leak something, even if it goes through another 2 or 3 leaks before official release.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Thought you were talking about 4.2. But either way. You're comparing carriers. Different carriers release faster than others. So to say verizon or sprint can do it doesn't really hold any significance. AT&T does there own thing. So if you're waiting on them I wouldn't hold your breath dude.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aabaaf:
I realize that carriers release things differently, and VERIZON, didn't release there's it's a LEAK. So all I am asking is, where is the AT&T LEAK?

Why do you even need ATT leak when you can use this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1956463

I have been using it for 3 days and it works flawlessly
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aabaaf:
Because I want something specifically designed for my phone, not one that's close. Also I've seen several articles on here about people having problems with the Sprint version, especially with the GPS, and having to go back to stock 4.1.1, and reset etc......... I use my GPS a lot, so don't have time and can't afford it not to be guaranteed to work. Hence wanting an AT&T leak.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HiKsFiles:
By definition, a leak is, something an owner doesn't want to be made available and somehow becomes available before it's suppose to.

I wouldn't expect AT&T to volontarily "release" a leak... ;)

They're only doing a better job than the other carriers keeping their stuff to themselves.

Of course, that's unless Sprint and Verizon intentionnaly leaked theirs...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paniro187:
With your usual bad attitude you jumped the gun.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bbgt2:
Hahah u sound frustrated. Even when the ATT leak comes don't expect it to be 100%.

As for the Sprint leaks I understand your reluctancy to flash it. Worse case is if it didn't work flash back to what did. That's the great part about Android.

I had issue with a certain JB rom until I found Graxxixnyc port and it works flawlessly. GPS et al.

Other then that just wait for ATT to give us JB, but as task said don't hold your breath as if we get official from them by the end of this year we would be lucky.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aabaaf:
Yes, I know it's something that the owner doesn't want out, but yet somehow all carriers seem to have them. Which was the point of this post. Never said they would "voluntarily" release it, otherwise I would have stated that implicitly. All I said was that since the OFFICIAL SPRINT release is out, and a leaked version of Verizon's SG3 software as of 10/8/2012 where is the AT&T version?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
lol. keep on trolling dude. thats not what XDA is for. remind yourself of that. things you did wrong here.

1.) You didn't even try and help. I did. ;)

3.) Contribute or add something here or it's a waste of a post. Learn that. :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I'm not sure how long you've been with AT&T, but they seem to take the longest out of all of the carriers in terms of their release times. Leaks come and go and sometimes never come. Basically it's just a waiting game dude. Patience is key when with AT&T. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paniro187:
Its not about trolling "dude" its about talking to people in a respectful manner. I think its silly that when a some users are a developer they feel like they can come on and talk down to people. I'll just as soon run stock cupcake 1.5 on my phone than have some one treat me like **** for asking a question. But hey you're a grown man do what you want. people sniffing your corn hole for the latest ROM has went to your head apparently.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Lol. Please grow up dude. I mentioned something along the lines that source hasn't been released yet and this is what you get from it? It was a simple error in reading it correctly. Happens every day dude. Get used to it. That's not only weird but its also taking something waaaay out of context. This is you holding a grudge for some reason or another and releasing it in a development site. So either you should keep to yourself or contribute to this community. That's what XDA is all about dude.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aabaaf:
Thank you Task650, I realize that AT&T takes FOREVER, been with them seems like FOREVER. I know that leaks come and go, all I'm asking, is if anyone has any information about any AT&T leaks, not leaks from other carriers, that if you stand on your head, and spin, then it will work, and that if it doesn't you can always go back. I know all this, and if that is what I wanted to do I'd do it. But what I'm looking for is an AT&T leak, that way it's has the most chance of having most if not all things working properly. I am patient when waiting for things to happen, but just asking a friendly does anyone know if one is out yet, or heard anything is all.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
They take longer than forever from what I've seen. Which really sucks for the user that wants to run stock official roms. There is no leak yet. You will definitely know when there is because it will be posted in the development forum and users that use touchwhiz will be all over it. ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] paniro187:
On point number 2 this isn't some one off time you did this. Every one misreads time to time but countless posts you rip into people. hey its just a observation. No biggie.

you should really be concentrating on #2 & #3. please remind yourself that this site is about development. please go to the more appropriate places like Facebook, Twitter, or start a blog if you feel the need to voice your personal opinions about me. Your observations are just that. yours. but either way they belong elsewhere. please stop polluting XDA with them. thanks. :D

Gang, after Samsung decided to advertise the hell out of Group Cast. It looks like an interesting and useful feature so I decided to give it a shot. First off, it was difficult to setup, something like 15 clicks or so to get two devices connected. I could barely figure it out myself, much less expect my wife or my friends who are not tech savvy to set it up. Also, it only works between GSIII's. The odds of two GSIII's getting together, well, you can calculate it. My previous phone was a GNex, and I discovered this app called Tapestry, and it is a really polished photo sharing app and it connects in 3 clicks. It also has nifty features like "swipe to download" to directly download images peer-to-peer, and also synchronized pinch/zoom. It also works with all Android devices, not just GSIII's. Has anyone else played with Group Cast? I'd like to get your thoughts. Has anyone else played with Tapestry? I'd like to get your comparison/contrast on it as well.

Bing Launcher is an app that provides a means of launching Bing without the search button :good:

On a HD2 we often use the search button for "focus down" in the "camera trick" to reduce battery drain i.e. hit camera button, then video, then focus down and battery drain is reduced from -400 to -6

So this handy app is a replacement for the Bing search button - it can also be pinned to start screen

I think it simply means unhook your phone from your computer. When you run the first script it changes how your computer recognizes your phone. I don't think adb will work properly after running it(not sure here). So you will have to run the second script through terminal emulator. What I did was run the first script through terminal emulator (free on play store) then did the back up, unhooked from my computer then ran the second script from terminal emulator....done.
