[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pussyliquor:
They haven't billed my wife for a data plan on her dell streak. However I believe she was on a smartphone exclusion plan from her phone prior to that. Also the dell was unbranded. I just recently ordered her a nexus 4.

If she leaves data off, is there any chance she won't get a plan added? What about imei spoofing?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinkerer76:
When telecom companies advertise their rates they always do mb/s, I figured it would be easiest for us to compare it to those theoretical maximum yields.

I am getting about 375 kB/s this morning.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vendetta718:
What about the go phone $50 unlimited plan? Do you think it will work with the nexus 4? Apparently its only compatible with feature phones?

Or are the new go phone plans the same as the old media net plans? Just using a different name? and I should just stick with the t mobile $30 monthly plan im currently using with the N4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hung0702:
I meant regarding the use of the "/" symbol for bits rather than "p" to mean the same thing. The case difference is tedious to use alone, so bit rates are typically denoted as kbps or Mbps. Transfer rates are denoted KB/s and MB/s.

Here's a more comprehensive guide: http://lyberty.com/encyc/articles/kb_kilobytes.html.

Note the case difference for the prefix kilo-

Quick question for everyone, are you guys using a microsim from ATT or did you cut the one you already have? Do you guys know if the microsim has its own identifier of some sort that is sent to att that changes the medianet plan to a smartphone plan?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hung0702:
MicroSIMs (as all SIM cards) are specific only in that they can provide up to a certain network technology. I cut a very old SIM card (2008, I believe) which only provides 3G or lower. You need an LTE capable card and a DataPro plan in order to get LTE, if AWS is supported in your area (unlikely).

There shouldn't be any issue with using the Nexus 4 on a MEdia Net plan. My N4 is still recognized as a generic non-AT&T phone (confirmed by looking at my AT&T account info and seeing a flip phone icon next to my number). AT&T doesn't monitor MEdia Net plans for usage so you shouldn't be automagically downgraded to a capped DatabPro plan.

Note, however, that MEdia Net plans are capped at 7Mbps (875 KB/s). A Data Pro account holder will see faster speeds even if they are on the same band as you. 'tis the price for unlimited data for $10-$15/month
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spunky_Monkey:
I used the old sim card that I've had for 5+ years. I called att on an old att flip phone and switched my plan to medianet and gave them that phones imei number. After I got the confirmation email saying that everything went through I put the sim in my n4 and deleted the proxy for the apn.

3 hours later and they switched me back to the 3 gig plan. :mad:

So, to answer your question, I don't think it matters. But, I've never had a new sim card.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CptanPanic:
Just got booted off media net today.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soldiersinx:
Thanks for all the reply guys!

That sucks you got booted off medianet, how did att catch on so quick?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hung0702:
Damn... got switched to Data Pro today... over 3 years on MEdia Net and those telco bastards change my plan. I wish I had a legal precedent to force them to revert... but I don't.

Dann you, AT&T.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
I got a text from them switching me to data pro. I promptly called them back and got medianet back with no issue.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hung0702:
Really? Care to share a few more details? PM if it makes you uncomfortable to post it here. Would love to go back to unlimited data and $10/month
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elsydeon:
I'm not sure what's the point of doing this though, once your Nexus 4's IMEI gets flagged. It seems like you'd just get switched back, in the case of Spunky_Monkey, within a matter of just a few hours. If you can get switched back, it's like winning a battle but losing the war sooner or later at that point. I wonder if you could switch back, and then request that AT&T puts a block on your account so that nothing else about it can be messed with any further?

I'm still ok myself, but given there's now multiple cases of people getting flagged, I can feel mine heading towards the chopping block...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimpjr:
AT&T grabbed the Nex4 imei's so it will not work, they auto add the $30 3GB smartphone data plan within 1-3hrs.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonus:
I wonder if you are excluded from getting auto-switched when you have the smartphone exclusion line item on your account? I have medianet and my phone just died on me. I'm considering making the switch to a Nexus 4, but I'm unwilling to pay for a smartphone plan and go from paying $10 a month to $30 or $50 for data, its bad enough they already force us to pay $20 for text messaging.

To the people that got auto-switched, did you have "smartphone exclusion" on your bill?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
Still winning the battle........;)

Also, I asked the CSR to make a note on my account essentially saying "do not flag my phone anymore". We'll see how long it goes.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elsydeon:
I got tagged finally last week Sunday, incidentally one day after I got billed, so I wonder if that's when they check whether your IMEI is still legit. Wanted to just give in, with the intention of dropping down to just the 300MB plan, but when I went online into my account, scarily enough, that wasn't even a selectable option. I have no intention of paying $30 for data I don't even use, so I dropped my sim back into my official AT&T dumbphone, made sure its pic showed up in my account, and then made the "playing stupid" call to get Medianet back. I got it back, but the CSR continuously stressed that if I attempt to use a smartphone, my plan will get automatically switched back anyway by the system. I asked if it was possible to lock my current plan so that it wouldn't change again, and he repeated the same thing. So I'm pretty sure AT&T knows full well what's going on with these switchback calls by now. I overnighted my sim in the dumbphone before attempting to drop it back into the Nexus 4, and so far, it hasn't changed back.

Interestingly enough, even though my sim's been in the Nexus 4 for days now, when I log online, the picture of my dumbphone still remains. And yet when I originally swapped my sim from the Nexus 4 to my dumbphone prior to calling CSR, the online picture immediately changed to my dumbphone. That makes me wonder if the CSR actually did something about my request, and put some kind of a lock on my account, to lock it to my dumbphone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
Dumbphone pic remains for me as well. It's been a little more than a week since I switched back to medianet.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elsydeon:
Have you actually used your data to date since switching back? I haven't actually turned on my data since getting back on Medianet, I wonder if that's what's keeping me from getting nailed again within hours.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
I've used it pretty much everyday since switching, not been flagged yet.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elsydeon:
Well, I got nailed again today. When I got nailed last week, it was one day after I got billed. Today was the start of my next billing cycle where everything resets, and this time I only got an email regarding the bump, no text message. I still see a pic of my dumbphone in my online account, so I guess that didn't offer any sort of immunity from the sweep. I guess that's it for me, I give up, the war is over and has been lost, at least if I want to keep using the Nexus 4. Planning on doing a chat session tomorrow to get myself on a 300 meg 4G LTE plan using an IMEI I "found", if I have to move on to a smartphone plan, I'll be damned if it's not the LTE version of it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arizonamman:
I cut my old regular $2 per day (when used) AT&T SIM to the Micro size of the T-Mobile SIM I got when I signed up for the $30 T-MO plan but found out I have absolutely NO data coverage whatsoever (well, EDGE that is the same thing). T-MO phone coverage is spotty as well.

AT&T auto-filled the APN settings (they are not the same as my old AT&T GO phone). Evidently, before I could get in to turn data off (until I could get around to reading this and other threads on this topic), I received a pop up notification that they charged me 2 cents. I thought WTF?? I then turned off data and received another pop up for another 2 cent charge.

My prepaid $2 daily unlimited plan without data, charges 1 cent per 5 KB. It seems to me it would be to their advantage to continue charging me at that rate because the cheapest data plan available is $5 for 50 lousy MB however, after reading this thread I suspect they might bump me up to one of these:

Data packages are available with the $50 Unlimited Monthly Plan and the $25 Monthly Plan. Smartphone users must purchase a data package with an eligible plan to use data/Web services.

New data amounts!

$25 for 1 GB

$15 for 200 MB

$5 for 50 MB

AT&T has major metro Phoenix LTE coverage that I can get downtown but it HSPA east and south of town where I usually hang out.

I just can't see paying a friggin' fortune for little to no data, especially at such low speeds but these damn carriers have us by the short hairs and they know it. :mad:

Because I use my phone <15 days for calls/texts I pay less than $30 per month. I only use data when I am downtown and want to get a restaurant address, etc. The rest of the time I wi-fi from home or hotspots. If they bump me to a more expensive plan, I plan on calling them and telling them I want to cancel and go to another company. Anyone ever tried saying that? Could it do any good at all?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] stark0:
Well, I use two cheap mounts for my Nexus 7:

- On home, I use a mount that I saw on a youtube video a year ago, It uses a rubik's snake:

- And for car, I use a foto stand made of plastic (0,50€), yes, a foto stand :)

The tablet doesn't move and fits perfect! :D

Any suggestions for improve the mounts ? ;)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Troute:
Nice stands but a dock would have some form of connection for power and data surely?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] stark0:
ups sorry! I change the name. Thanks :)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] bransyeah:
Very nice car stand! My only concern is that you are almost blocking the buttons... Wouldn't be nicer if you trimmed the stand a little?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] stark0:
Thanks !

The stand is made of cheap plastic, I think if I try to trim it'll break. The only button I cannot access is the "recent apps" that is unnecessary for mi when I'm driving. I'm thinking to use GMD Gesture app for replace all the buttons.

At the moment, I can use back and home without problems :D
[Nexus 7 Accessories] SteppingSplash:
If you used the true tablet UI tweak, you wouldn't have to worry about that, because your buttons would all be on the left side!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] igwtapc:
Try the belkin case for the kindle fire. I use it on my acer a100 in the home and car. With a small bungee cord between the headrest posts then able to play movies in any vehicle for the kids. Will post pics after work today
[Nexus 7 Accessories] stark0:
I tried the tablet ui but I didn't like! I like the actual notification bar. Buttons are not a problem for me, I need home and back and I can press them.

I don't know what do you mean! I'll wait for screenshots :)

Enviado desde mi Nexus 7 :D
[Nexus 7 Accessories] JaSauders:
How exactly does the car mount hold the tablet in place? It looks like if you'd punch the gas that thing would be on the floor.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] igwtapc:
This is what it looks like out of the car. It doesn't block my connections as well as set up any where I need it. Great for protection also. It is the belkin case for the kindle fire.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] TheBronze:

The second picture with the case on the side and the tie down... Looks like a cross bow. :)

I have an i9305 (optus) running Ripper Rom v3 and I am having trouble getting my wired xbox 360 controller to work through usb otg.

I heard that in GTA3 and Dead Trigger it was supposed to just work, but i can only use it to look around... and the buttons do weird things.

I bought and tried the USB/BT Joystick Center 6 app and all the buttons seem to work in that, so the controller/OTG cable should be working fine.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] dlads:
The xbox controlle won't work natively, thats incorrect, you have to use a program called USB / BT joycenter

Looks like we will have to go the way of the DHD and Inspire 4G. Phones are similar but will require separate dev areas.
[HTC One X+] omario8484:
Almost all roms worked on the inspire from the dhd.. it was mainly with aosp that you just had to flash the inspire patch but sense roms it didn't really matter but the devs did have to add inspire 4g support which was just a couple tweaks and done
[HTC One X+] droidiac13:
I think we need our own AT&T forum. I believe it would help with a lot of confusion and prevent bricking.

So ATT HOX+ owners should NOT attempt to flash the roms on this forum correct?

Correct.

Hey people,

I was wondering if Walmart, BestBuy or any retail store would carry the Nexus 4?

Plus, I'd like to use paypal.

What do you guys think?

Thanks ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imitenotbecrazy:
Best Buy will not be carrying the phone. Tmobile is selling it but I heard they won't sell it off contract and that the device may be locked. Online retailers are going to be your best bet if you can't get one from Play Store

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MySteRi:
I have previously installed the French and Indian tft files as ICS was not about on the 1262-0728 (UK unlocked handset). However I have seen that ICS is now available.

As I dont need any data on my phone using CWM and restored to factory settings, wiped cache and davlik cache and locked the bootloader.

Using SUS and PCC i have ran a restore to default options however I think i still have the Indian ICS installed...

Using SUS I can see its downloaded new files to (C:\ProgramData\Sony Ericsson\Update Engine\db\13740270\blob_fs\) which would suggest that it has redownloaded the raw factory tft files?

The reason I think i have the Indian version is that i have apps such as pvr cinemas, real cash rummy, cricbuzz and teenpatti.

How do I tell if i am now on what should be Sony issued firmware for my handset?

Have you ever encountered black screen whenever you go to home with espier laucnher?

Im using Icysnap with espier and i also used Profile Scheduler+.

IVe encountered this bug several times and i found out that the problem that when my profile go to Night Profile the screen go black but the touch screen is working. done some troubleshooting and i found out the the problem is at the brightness settings. The brightness must be not lower than 13 so that the screen will not go black.... i set it the brightness to 13 or auto and it works fine, now i can enjoy iphone look using espierlauncher

Fix: set your brightness not lower 13 or 15. :highfive:
