[HTC One X+] tero2012:
Hello all,

I am thinking of buying a brand new never used AT&T One X+ to be used in Uruguay.

Do I need an AT&T SIM to activate the phone before I can do anything with the phone, for example SIM unlocking it?

Or can I just enter the uruguayan SIM, unlock it and ready to go?

Thank you very much!
[HTC One X+] Dfballa:
What i did was I popped in my ATT sim card (don't know if you HAVE to in able to unlock your device) bought a code off of cellunlocker.net or something to that sense and they usually get back to you within a day. I got mine within an hour. Found an old T-Mobile SIM card, put it on and the phone asked for an unlock code, entered the one that I bought and BAM said my device was unlocked. I didn't test it with an international SIM card yet so idk if it works.
[HTC One X+] trojjanhorse:
cellunlocker.net is now 14.99USD for telus and I received the code in less than 5 minutes on a weekend :p
[HTC One X+] Azhturion:
It doesn't matter what kind of sim card you use. Just use a different sim card than AT&T brand and the phone will ask you for the unlock number instantly, you enter it and becomes ready to go.

For Tero 2012: [Spanish text]

No te compres ninguna tarjeta AT&T. Yo solo usé la SIM de mi compañía (En este caso Telcel de México), me preguntó por el código, y lo liberé, así de simple. Solo ten en cuenta si la red LTE y 3G de tu compañía Uruguaya es compatible con la red de AT&T. Checa las frecuencias que utilizan. Saludos!

Which listing is it?
[HTC One X+] yisao:
Hi Azthurion, Here in Colombia, the new lay claim to the user to report first the IMEI for the new devices, or the operator block the register in the network. I've a "new" AT&T's Endevoir, I put the code of cellunlocker.net, then it say "Sucesfully unlocked form the network", restarting.. but at the restart, appears the locked screen again, I put again the code then says "Incorrect Password". I request support at the guys of cellunlocker; they quickly answer: I follow your recommendation, then I re-lock and unroot the device flashing again the stock RUU, but the problem appears again..

I register the Endevoir in the Uff Colombia Web Site, but they request for the IMEI and some invoice.. Finally I think what, my fault of invoices in the site is blocking my access in the network, then the cellphone finally don't recognize a new network and relock... It's possible??

Thanks in advance...

att sux

I have tried for three months to get an unlock code from att. Bought the 1x from a sale for a hundred. Before I paid, I called att to ensure I would be able to acquire said code. They LIED. No surprise there. After numerous calls to many sects of att, I still have not gotten this pos unlocked. They are holding it hostage because some previous customer hasn't either paid the bill or some other asinine reason that is not relative to my owning it. HTC can't or won't help either. Several calls to them proved absolutely fruitless. Which brings me back the idiotic processes initiated by att. After being ripped off by att years ago, I do not and will not use att for anything except as a target of unbridled hatred! They are mega-corporate thieves and bullies. This disgust I harbor for att does not provide any relief for the errant unlock code, though. I've searched over thirty different sources from a multitude of search engines and as yet, all I have is a handicapped cell phone. I want to root it and install something to my tastes but that is impossible without the phone being opened first.

If anyone has any ideas where a poor white trash fool without any cash can get some relief from being pounded by lizards that run att, I would be most appreciative! All I want to do is be able to use my phone and send and receive the occasional mentally-challenged joke or pic, but can't since att sees anyone not giving cash to them as some sort of terrorist. Sheesh, I just want to unlock the phone...not rob the rich nor crash planes into government buildings nor something just as nefarious.

anyway, thanks for any help...or just for listening.

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkiii:
The Note 2 doesn't support UMS (USB Mass Storage) so it won't work normally.

There is a root app that allows you to mount as UMS which you could give a try?

so if i root my note 2 will i be able to connect it through usb n play songs for ipod made device?

WHats your catch about it?

Better then Android??

Put in your thoughts in that Website's comment.

More people will get the information and reviews
[Windows Phone 8 General] Dr.Paul:
You are kidding right?

Data sense - lost in action

Kids corner - useless to most people

Ie10 - most mobile websites are programmed to use WebKit.

Rooms - useless unless everyone has a wp8 device

Wallet and NFC - useless

Work flow and voice - been out for years on android

I'm very disappointed in wp8. It is in no way competitive. I have an iphone5, galaxy s3 and htc 8x. The 8x isn't even close to the other devices. And no I'm not a troll. Only someone talking from experience.

Major fail Microsoft. Wp8 is totally uncompetitive.
[Windows Phone 8 General] gilesjuk:
Why come here and post about it? that is considered trolling. We like it, so don't care about your opinion.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Vallista:
WP8 has a lot of going for it. They need more app support, then it can go head to head with android.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
The op asked for opinions. Microsoft also asks (even if they don't listen) for opinions. Expressing an opinion different to your own is not trolling.

That said...

I like the kids corner thing... really its multi user mode. I just don't think it is a bullet point for 99% of consumers. I watch parents hand their phones to their kids for entertainment every day. Its a nice feature to have multi user environments but needs a better selling job from ms. Think "risque photos on a girls phone, being handed to dad, to make a phonecall" , yes , there is a win.

The features that other phones have had aren't really a huge selling point, if wp just implemented them. It comes across as 'me too!'

If people dont notice the new home screen, its not "new" enough. Having to point out that a puppy has "really floppy cute ears, see !" Means they aren't a big deal, or aren't floppy or cute, or NEW enough. That part is painful to watch. I really felt sorry for the salesman in the wp videos on youtube.

If noticed though, that the latest youtube channel videos are playing on the "smoked" promotion idea. Sending a text message 3 seconds faster (or other very practiced objectives by the host) is a yawner now. It was funny at first with 'smoked' but the stacking of the deck spoiled the fun, people resented it. Guess Microsoft's advertising dollars are learning, and persistant, even to a fault.
[Windows Phone 8 General] FiyaFleye:
You're delusional. You also obviously are missing the entire point of a mobile experience. They can all have the same features across the board, the implementation is the key focus here. Windows Phone is a joy and ease to use. iPhone is extremely simple to use, but the potential and implementation of it's features are a headache. The ONLY thing that those other two platforms may have over Windows Phone is the marketshare and mindshare to utilize their potentials. Once specific WinPhone8 apps begin to come out, and I mean REAL apps utilizing the new developer features, then you'll see this come to the forefront even more. Android can clean me after a bowel movement, doesn't mean it isn't the most inefficient OS ever created, REQUIRING multiple cores to even be close to the fluidity of Windows Phone. I got honest with myself and said "do I really need the ability to install multiple file explorers on my phone?"
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
edit... wait a second, they all have the same features ? really ? cmon man, its ok to be a fan, but that's rediculonk.

don't worry, android is peaking now, and wp or ios will have 70+ marketshare next. that should be just in time for wp9 or 9.5

will wp be ready, or will ios whoop em again ?
[Windows Phone 8 General] FiyaFleye:
C'mon ohgood, your reading skills are better than that, I said "they all can" focusing on the fact that the experience is the main issue. WP does not lack in any necessary consumer feature

[Windows Phone 8 General] zolgi:
You don't have to have wp8 device to use "rooms" It's coming to android & ios also.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
ahhh, "they all can" as in a comparison, not "they all do". sorry, I missed that the first time. gotit.

the rest was "chicken before the egg, which is first" as far as developers go. I was serious in the question as to whether wp9 will be ready when android share starts declining. the developers and mindshare needs to be priority number 1 right now at microsoft campuses.

given past quotes from microsoft, wp8 was in develope

ment when wp7 was released. hopefully wp9 is well underway, tiles have been rethunk, along with opening the platform up and feeding devs everything NOW. (sorry for the run on)

might be a good idea to keep all these wp8 early adopters in mind too... hard to get folks to walk across the same burning bridge twice.

[Windows Phone 8 General] Mister Locke:
Used a GSIII for about 26 days, it was easily the worst experience I've had on a mobile device. Before you ask yes it was on the stock AT&T ROM. Bloatware everywhere and applications wouldn't be in alphabetical order. It felt unorganized and not uniform to me, I must have OCD and require theme colors lol.

Personally found myself using my phone a lot less when I had the GSIII then when I had my Lumia 920 in just the day to day of whipping it out and messing around with it. Also Skype never worked consistently on the GSIII that was a real pain.

In a side note most reviewers said you have to use two hands on the 920...I single hand it constantly with no issues whatsoever. Guess my hands are freakishly strong or I'm not a little girl.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Dr.Paul:
Apps in alphabetical order on the S3? Tap menu, view mode, alphabetical. Done. Should have read the manual.

Bloat ware? Load the standard rom. Done.
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Which requires rooting your phone in the process, thus voiding your warranty.

This is why Android sucks. You should never make such a significant change for your device to work. Never.
[Windows Phone 8 General] derausgewanderte:
I am kidding

Data sense - will be there soon

Kids corner - great feature with two kids in the house using our phones to play games

Ie10 - useful and will grow

Rooms - useful with growing number of friends and family owning a WP8 device

Wallet and NFC - useful

Work flow and voice - finally on WP and so much better than on android

I'm extremely satisfied with wp8 and the numbers and sales show that it is and will be very competitive. I used an LG Quantum and what a delight the Lumia 920 is over that. And yes, I am a troll and I am someone talking from experience.

Major move Microsoft. Wp8 is totally competitive.

My point here is that your opinion has nothing to do with decent evaluation. Just using the word "useless" to describe a feature's downside is pretty useless.

cheers
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
if you have sales numbers post a link... otherwise, yes enjoy being a fan :)
[Windows Phone 8 General] derausgewanderte:
LOL, never reply to a troll like myself. So where are your numbers then?:)

and yes, I enjoy being a fan, that's why I'm here....
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
I haven't seen any sales numbers yet, so when someone mentions its selling fine.... I ask for numbers
[Windows Phone 8 General] Dr.Paul:
No it doesnt.
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
root= does not void warrantee. root= full software access, to the user.

...android sucks, never have to make change....

you mean, removing oem installed bloatware is a bad idea ? say it again, OEM INSTALLED BLOATWARE, not operating system bloatware. remember all those laptops / desktops that came preinstalled with norton, from the store? did microsoft install that mess, or did the oem ? hmmm
[Windows Phone 8 General] mcosmin222:
Rooting, unlocking, doing any changes to the stock ROM you get from your OEM=warranty void. You should know that by now. In case you didn't know, consult the manual again. Rooting falls under "unauthorized changes to software"

I didn't say you shouldn't root your phone. In fact, for android, it is advised to do so because rooting gives you more security and control over your device.

But it comes with the risk of voiding your warranty and in case your phone suffers damage, you will have to pay for it. And the comparison with laptop/desktop does not apply. Your PC is already "rooted".

And no matter what you do, you will never get a phone with stock android (no changes from OEM) out of the box. Which is why it sucks. Among many other reasons.

[Windows Phone 8 General] vetvito:
Right you are. Happy holidays!

Maybe Google should make a pure Android phone and call it something like Nexus, nah that'll never work. What was I thinking.
[Windows Phone 8 General] LudoGris:
you are incorrect, it does void the warranty if you root and it is found out. You are 100% allowed to do it as it is legal to do so, but that doesn't mean the OEM will warranty the device if there is an issue. You are just out of luck. I love Android. I have used them for years and my last four phones were android. I just seem to enjoy WP8 more.

[Windows Phone 8 General] Poecifer:
Didn't they let Verizon modify the galaxy nexus?
[Windows Phone 8 General] Faelnirv:
Rooting your phone DOES NOT void your warranty, and no matter what's writted or what your seller said. (In EU, don't now how it is for US :D).

You have 3 month of full warranty when you buy your phone, and if he got a problem (conception failure or software issue), you just have to give it to repair and THEY have to give a proof that YOU broke it. And rooting/installing a custom rom/overcloacking/blabla... will not void your warranty during these 3 months.

I've been using android devices since the original HTC Dream/G1. I Love android and what it is about. But having used the HTC 8x over the last week, Windows Phone 8 is by far the best mobile OS I've used. Its easy to use, simplistic and best of all has no fragmentation issues, which have plagued android since day 1.
[Windows Phone 8 General] Dr.Paul:
No fragmentation? How about all the apps only available from Nokia?
[Windows Phone 8 General] ohgood:
Ya, I'm waiting for numbers. Amazon got 100, or 10 million to sell? They arent saying
[Windows Phone 8 General] B!0HaZard:
That's not a universal EU rule and if you mean the EU right to claim compensation, it's not a full warranty.

If the phone breaks from a manufacturing problem, yes, you're covered. Problems caused by the user are not covered. In Denmark, you have the right to claim compensation for defective product for 24 months unless it's a PEBKAC (I believe this is longer than most of EU). Also, this right is not a warranty. A warranty is something else, sometimes offered by the manufacturer and has nothing to do with EU law. It is not something the manufacturer

has

to provide and it can vary in length and coverage.

This means that breaking the phone by flashing a piece of software and thus bricking it is NOT covered. I do believe, however, that hardware failures are covered regardless of software changes.
[Windows Phone 8 General] leventccc:
I switched to windows phone from android. Here is what I think about wp8

Pros:

Smooth as iphone

Mass storage support is perfect

Battery saver feature is very good

Default system applications are damn good and doesn't need any replacements

Being able to manually choose your region is very useful

Cons:

Marketplace needs more famous apps like temple run, official tapatalk, official youtube

No file explorer

More alternative browsers are needed

No sideloading(except you give $99 dollar to microsoft)

Also I moved to android from ios at 2010. When I used my htc hero first time, ui was great ,market was very bad compared to ios and android marketshare was low. Look at the android now, marketplace is as good as ios, marketshare is better than ios. I think if wp can provide file managers and sideloading millions of android users will move to wp phones.
[Windows Phone 8 General] tkchan007:
To be fair, there are some nice things about Nokia Maps/Drive+ (Beta) but there are also some big holes in Drive+. Not being able to sync (or allow the creation of) custom routes with Here.net is a big problem I see when people routinely setup custom routes to go around high traffic area or just having to do a quick stop elsewhere. However, it is still in beta right now and they're supposedly adding features to it. So even though it might not be as good as Google Maps/Navigation at the moment, they do have some advantages over Google Maps/Navigation (primary the download maps - tried using pre-download maps on Google Map/Nav when you're traveling a large region just doesn't work at all - tried it on my Nexus 7).
[Windows Phone 8 General] Slai:
Ive used sgs2, sgs3, n900, n9, n8, n97, lumia 800 and fiddled a little with iPhone.

My last phone was the sgs3, which I sold to get the lumia 920.

SGS3 was as close to a perfect phone as I had seen. GREAT batterylife, amazing screen, swiftkeyx was amazing, and so on and so forth.

But I grew tired of it.

Why I prefer the 920: better UI than ics/jb/maemo/meego/wp7.5/belle, amazing design, GREAT screen, fast as all hell, very nicely incorporated facebook/email/contacts/pictures, nokia Music is really nice, as well as nokia maps, the fun of seeing the OS develop alongside WP8 and RT.

Iunno, I simply prefer it at the moment. Obviously it has flaws. Id like to see the chrome browser, and swiftkeyx. But I still prefer it without those.
