Good video.

It's side by side comparison of

1. Loading the web pages

2. Scrolling down the web pages

3. Opening/closing apps

4. Moving between apps

Scrolling down the web page is the only comparison where ics is ahead. I believe it's only faster while working with large, full size web sites. Also,GB, allows you too scroll before the web site is fully loaded while JB makes you wait longer. I suspect it's a factor in making scrolling choppy

The problem with Androix 4.x is that it eats more RAM than Gingerbread and animations are sometimes laggy on the Nexus S.

I'm running 4.2.1 quite happily on my NS4G. Using the Marmite kernel I have quite a bit of RAM compared to stock kernels. I also limit my background processes as I don't really use any multitasking (2 processes is where I cap it).

Meh, to each their own. I loaded up CM7 stable a few weeks ago and couldn't stand being back on GB, however, my wife is still running 2.3 on her Inspire 4g and I can't get her to even do the OTA for 2.3.5(? maybe .7).

Obviously, thieves would try to call them and claim they "bought" a phone from somewhere and it was blacklisted. Even if what you are saying is true, you have no way of proving it. And AT&T has no obligation to make a phone work that wasn't purchased directly from them. So no, I doubt that would work.

That isn't remotely what he said. He said don't buy from unknown sources, especially using a transaction type where you have no method of recourse if the seller screws you.

He would have to flash the ice cold jelly ROM every month or so, so its not really a great fix anyway. Just temporary. I'm doubtful he can figure out how to flash it to begin with anyways

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PeartFan40:
OP: Just a reminder: XDA does not get involved with sketchy situations. The error code you're getting indicates your device is stolen. Doesn't matter where you got it, the point is you got it, and now you're expecting XDA to ilegally show you how to circumvent a block on a stolen phone? Not going to happen, for many reasons; the biggest one being the FCC getting involved.

Rule #4 sub-section B states:

We do not allow items to be offered for Sale/Trade that are stolen, thought to be stolen, or of questionable history.*

This rule applies to all aspects of XDA. Whether it be buying/selling/trading, or something like creating a thread to get help with this problem. While I'm sorry you had the misfortune of buying a stolen device, you could easily avoided this by asking the seller for the IMEI #. You couod have checked to see if the phone was free and clear of past due balances, or worse....stolen. Coming to XDA to save the day is a no-go. This is one rule we aren't lenient with.

Time to buck-up little camper, and chalk this up as a life lesson. Sorry for rambling on. Sometimes, common sense is worth emphasizing in situations like this. With all that said...

Hey all,

I just received a warranty replaced SGS2 from T-mobile and for some reason, I am getting a better battery life experience than when I had my old SGS2 (rooted with darkside evolution v8) and my daily usage is always moderate no matter which rom I was using.

My phone is currently on 4.0.4 with baseband: T989UVLI1 and kernel: 3.0.8.

Does anyone have the link for the Rooted version of this stock rom?

Thanks in advance.

Im getting awesome battery life on this stock rom. I just gained root access and removed all the tmobile bloatware apps using titanium backup.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] act5860:
Doesn't matter

I don't think that what rom you run makes a difference when it comes to battery life once you remove the bloatware. My experience has been that custom rooms DO increase speed and offer other upgrades, but little difference in battery life.

Just my opinion.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacTu:
Hello, while being mindful of Nexus 4's LTE status, I would like to debate on what carrier is the best for general/specific purposes.

For data heavy but light on talk, it's renown that the T-Mobile $30 unlimited data/text plan with 100 minutes is the best value in that regards.

However, for someone like me who has two people on the line (my mom only uses talk, where I am more text/data heavy but still use some talk) I am curious about Straight Talk and Walmart's Family Mobile (both offered via Walmart)

My current plan is Walmart's Family Mobile at $45 / mo. + $35 line (ex. tax) which provides unlimited talk, text and 250 MB of data with options of $10 for an extra 1 GB, $20 for 3 GB or $40 for 8 GB. This is all 3g... but speeds are pretty horrible. It ranges from 0.26 to 0.8 Mbps.

Has anybody used Family Mobile and Straight Talk or another carrier that believe they have a better deal?

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AshtonTS:
Straight talk AT&T > Tmobile since you can actually get coverage...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mprziv:
Got plenty of coverage here with ST T-Mo. Able to pull 15 Mbps down on their DC-HSPA+ 42 network in South Florida. It is awesome.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacTu:
So let me get this straight...

I pay $45 + $35 / mo. and only get 250 Mb. So with Straight Talk... I get better coverage, 2 GB﻿ of unthrottled data (vs. 250 MB) for $10 more?

How much does it cost for additional data?

Thank you so much for the replies.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajfink:
Correct. The world of MVNOs (companies using the main carriers' networks) is a brilliant one. The saving grace of American telecom (outside of the $30 T-Mobile plan you mentioned).

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacTu:
1. How much does additional data cost on Straight Talk?

Also, when selecting Straight Talk's "Please choose the type of phone you have"

"Phone is CDMA..."

"Unlocked GSM Phone"

"AT&T Compatible Phone"

"T-Mobile Compatible Phone"

2. Is it better to pick Unlocked, AT&T, T-Mobile or does it not matter as they both use the same frequency and will allow you to switch between one tower or the other depending on better service?

3. I'm guessing Straight Talk doesn't have any additional line services, so I'll have to buy two separate ones for me and my mom?

Sorry for all the questions, hopefully I'll be able to relay these answers to future people as I am forever in your debt. :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootedVette:
When starting a Straight Talk plan, it actually DOES matter what you select here. If you choose AT&T compatible, then you will use the AT&T network. If you choose T-Mobile, then you use the T-Mobile Network. If I recall correctly, simply choosing "Unlocked GSM phone," will give you an AT&T compatible SIM.

There are benefits of each network. AT&T generally has better coverage, but instead of deploying DC-HSPA+ 42mbps, they opted for LTE. The Straight Talk MVNO does not currently have access to LTE (last time I checked).

T-Mobile, on the other hand, may not have as great of coverage but, if you happen to have good coverage, you could have access to their HSPA+ 42 speeds.

Their have also been reports of users getting throttled at different points depending on what network they chose with Straight Talk.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SevenSe7enSeven:
depends on the coverage in your area. Straight talk ATT in my area has great coverage but data speed is slow. tmobile runs fast like most advertised here but its spotty in a lot of places i travel to. since u can purchase a tmobile sim for $30 you wont lose much to test it out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubiconjp:
1. Pick at&t micro SIM.

2. See #1. No switching between at&t and T-Mobile since they mostly use different frequencies and prepaid MVNO don't data roam.

3. Yes.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PoisonWolf:
Straight talk has a 100mb per day limit as well..... Go above it several times and they reserve the right to outright just kill service. Something to keep in mind.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pheno.menon:
I'm on the $30 tmo plan and it is pretty awesome. Coverage in the wild is slim to none, but in metro areas the speeds are excellent and I don't ever find myself wishing for LTE.

Getting the plan is a little tricky, as tmo won't sell it to you in the store. But you can activate it online (ironically enough.. inside their store too) or through walmart website.

I went to a T-Mobile store and got their daily plan. I paid $10 and got 5 days worth of unlimited minutes, texting and data. Should be long enough to test out the network in your area. Surprisingly, with my current phone (Omnia HD/i8910) I get way better coverage with T-Mobile vs AT&T.

thanks for this. I'm so tired of people doing this across the interwebs.... makes me never want to try out Solavei.

EDIT: at OP, Net10 is very similar to StraightTalk but $5 more a month. but I saw a commercial where you can get 2 lines (is this what they are called) for $90 (first at $50, second at $40). http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/tracfones-net10-quietly-adds-family-plans-mix/2012-10-25
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
Seems like it would be a better deal for 3 lines but for <2 lines it the same or cheaper with ST, either way it is the same service.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] co.ag.2005:
yep. I was mainly bringing it up in case anyone gets kicked off ST for data usage, they have something similar to try out instead. but yes, you are correct.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asqwrd:
Net10

Im on net10 and if you do auto refill then its just 45 a month for one line and 85 for 2. Mind you the customer service was horrid and I had issues with porting my numbers over that took a week of calling over and over again to resolve. And it was something as simple as my phones showing active on my account so that I could add services like auto refill. Im not sure how Straight talk customer service is but net10 seemed to put u on hold for a long time and transfer you back and forth between agents. i found that calling around 8am -12 pst connected you with agents that knew more of what they were doing. Any other time and they are just useless. Other than that the actual service itself is fine. I get good speed and unlike Straight talk i noticed that the only restriction they put on data use is tethering. I know str8 talk didnt want you streaming music or videos.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bronk93:
You can always do what I recently did. I ported my number to Google Voice, $20.00 one time fee, and ordered a TMobile compatible sim through Straight Talk. By porting my number to google voice I'll have the same number forever and I can try whichever prepaid carriers I choose.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] co.ag.2005:
except MMS doesn't work, correct? I've thought about it, but all my wife's family have dumb phones and send lots of MMS (and all my family with smart phones do too, but they could do email if needed). Plus I don't want to caveat my phone number by telling everyone not to send me MMS... but that's my preference on the deal. I'd port my number to GV (for when I go prepaid in March) in a heart beat if this issue wasn't around.

---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

like ST, on NET10, are you able remove the proxy in order to remove the tethering limits? I know some people have had success with streaming music, videos, tethering, and going over 2GB/month on ST just by removing the 2 proxy lines in the APN.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] facetubespam:
hm...interesting idea. Although, how many speedtests can you run at full speeds with the only 200mb a day limit before being throttled?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acuity:
If you go this method, you should make sure your number is portable to Google Voice before you go through the hassle to find out it isn't portable. Also, just because some of your friends might have Google Voice numbers with your area code doesn't mean you'll be able to. I am one of the very few with a 603 area code, but that's because I've been with Google Voice since before they were Google Voice.

I've heard of some people getting MMS through GV, but apparently it doesn't work with all carriers. Your MMS messages won't come in the form of texts through -- you'll get a message saying to check your e-mail unless something has changed since the last I've seen it work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EpiphanyMachine:
I use GV as my main number. Currently only Sprint customers can send MMS messages to you and they do come to your email only. You can reply by email which is sent as MMS to their phone.

Worst part of no MMS is not even a notification. And keep in mind iPhone group messages are sent as MMS so you will not get them and also neither you nor the sender will be notified you did not receive it.

---------- Post added at 06:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

When I chose my service I looked only at MVNOs because they will have better coverage.

ATT MVNO: Straight Talk - $45 / mo plus taxes so like $48 - Also you have to pay for SIM ($10-15) - No throttling from straight talk as they do not have the ability, ATT can throttle (if this happens call straightalk and have them reprovision your account with ATT and it will immediately be fixed)

Straighttalk is a joint venture between Walmart and Net10 so the only different between these two companies is price.

Tmobile MNVO:

Straight Talk - Faster than ATT if your in the "4g" markets.

solavei - is on t-mobile and has a free month of service - I just heard about it and have not tried it

I have only used ATT MVNOs because tmobile only has edge speeds at my house and they will not be fixing the tower issues in the next 2 years. I have had straight talk for a month and have been very happy. I did not port my number (I use GV)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acuity:
Yes, the inability to port my current number to Google Voice combined with lack of MMS is what made me not go IP only. I use my T-Mobile number for texting, and GrooVe IP for calls. 95% of people I'm in contact with use text for a method of communication so this isn't much of an issue for me -- I just need to get the remaining 5% on board with everyone else.

I've read of several people with issues doing this unless they disable their T-Mobile voicemail, but I'm not sure why. I've called both voicemail systems and both respond just as they should without any interruption. I never bothered to look into it since I have people dialing my GV number going to the GV voicemail while the people calling T-Mobile go to the T-Mobile voicemail box... just how I want it and it works perfectly. I like how GV sends a transcript of their message to me via email while T-Mobile people get to wait forever for not following my orders.
