Hi, the Verizon Droid Razr M works fine here in Italy (after setting the APN). No sim lock, no need to root or workon it. By the way... I think it's one of the best sub 4.3" terminal at the moment: good hardware, long battery life, light and pocketable!

Hi,

my RAZR M works fine on O2 Germany, APN Settings required.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rene_ajax:
Guys, where do you bought it??

And if I buy from site as Ebay, why do these people always response late and is there a chance I get scammed?

Hey, u live in Germany, thats NEXT TO Holland, wanna sell it to me?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
I just send one to (Germany Munich) works great on O2 and Tmobile DE

Its the time difference you guys are 7 hours ahead of us.

People tend to answer around 5-9pm US time which is after midnight ur time.

I been having great success getting them on ebay and Local craigslist.

Local so u can see the phone.

Ebay you have a buyer protection plan.

Though keep in mind it may take almost 1 month to arrive depending on shipping method and retarded customs.

Razr i or Razr M are ur choices.

Razr M 200-300 USD will cost you 175-250 EUro

Razr i is 300-500 Euro

So do your math what u want to do. It is a locked bootloader though on the M VZ the i Will be unlocked

Now the Galaxy S2 (i777) version is the one I bought for my GF sister.

Its a great phone but slower than the M. The Razr M also feels alot more premium compared to the cheap plastic feel.

I had both to play with, but the S2 has alot more custom rom stuff to play with.

You are able to damage the LCD of the S2 alot easier.

S2 has the ability to access the Battery the M does not.

The S2 chrome ring is prone to chip. The rear door feels flimsy

Oh and the S2 takes normal Mini Sim where the M takes Micro Sim.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rene_ajax:
Whats a local craigslist? [sorry my english is bad]

And is a micro sim more smaller than a mini sim [which iphone 4 uses]??

So, I have to cut my sim?

But is it really necessary to put that much efford just to buy a phone?

My last option would be the Galaxy s2 then
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
In the US Australia and Some European Country.

There is something like a Local Posting called Craigslist, you can buy and sell stuff, like a garage sale online.

(Free for most parts) And since it's local you have to meet them up and buy it form them like at a garage sale.

Just make sure you have some one else with you and meet up at a save secure location and its fine.

Mini-Sim is what normal phones tend to use, which the Galaxy S2 uses.

Micro-Sim is the size like the iPhone 4 and 4S

Nano-Sim is what the iPhone 5 uses

-You have to either cut a mini sim to Micro but it wont work unless u good/precise at cutting since

it has to be perfect else the Click mechanism won't work. Or just get a 5-7 dollar Sim card clipper (Like a hole puncher) make sure its Mini to Micro (not Mini to Nano

No its not much efford, I am with T-Mobile they just give me a Micro sim for free since i am already a customer.

T-Mobile also has Nano Sims if i wanted to go with an iPhone 5 (No cutting just go store and ask)

O2 also has Mini Micro and Nano Sim but they charge 5 Dollars to swap you over unless something happened to ur Sim (Damaged)

Hardware wise i did not like the S2 especially the wierd US veriations.

I do like the i777 which is an US variation by AT&T but it is the closest to International S2 with out the Physical button.

Software wise that phone has tons of support hardware wise its basic.

Hope that helps.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
These are the screens shots of XT907 in Germany on O2 using OEM Verizon Rom (No Modified Aussie Radio)

She gets Edge(2G) and HSPA(3.5G) sometimes 3G(3G)Roaming

Though her current area has a lot of interference with electronics.

So in Germany/Europe this phone can run pretty much at is Max on stock ROM, except no 4G and LTE since Europe use 3.5G i believe.

OMFG Iw ant it sooo bad! Dont you wanna get rid of it? Sell it to me, we live almost next each other!

Is there any safe way to get this phone??
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
Anything can be done, its all-ways about the money. If you deal with Euro then getting one over to you should be easy.

But if you use Lira or similar currency it may be expensive due to up-conversion.

These phones aren't quite cheap, sure... not as expensive as the stinken GoldBar of an iPhone but not as cheap so u can get one ever week.

I am about send an i777 S2 to my gf next week which is for her sister.

Razr M not working in India (yet)

Hi, so I got my Razr M delivered today here in India. But when I put in my local Vodafone GSM, it showed me a message saying "Your SIM card is from an unknown source." I pressed OK, but it shows the emergency calls only symbol. I tried changing the network mode from CDMA to GSM/UMTS. Didnt work. Then I manually searched for available networks, and tried connecting to them. But everytime I got the same message: "Your SIM card doesn't allow connection to this network".

Any ideas on what could be the problem?

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Germanese:
Make sure you fresh ICS or JB firmware loaded.

And that it is not a modded Firmware.

Start with that. If that will not work you have 2 choices.

VZ Firmware with Aus Radio

VZ Firmware with 01 mod

Unless India is on the black list of the phone also which it should not be, u shouldn't have a problem.

My old boss just went back to Dubai with his and had no issues using his phone with local Sims.

I've recently updated my Neo v with Ultimate XD ROM and the ROM is very smooth and I don't have any issues with it. I have Juice defender plus installed in which I've configured few apps so that the network will not get disabled when these apps are running. Past 2 days I don't see it working and even when the application is running and when I lock my screen the network is disabled which was not the case 2 days back. I haven't changed any configuration till now and not sure why it started behaving like this.

I tried Battery Defender and added those application to the white list and even the Battery Defender couldn't sense the status of the application and it always disabled the network even the running application is added in white list.

Someone let me know what went wrong in my system....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] meenavin:
Guys no clue?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] manoj_nike15:

Dey consume more RAM and drains ur battery.. so dont go for such kind of apps..

Do you think that disabling the data connection when not in use will drain more battery?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vishal_android freak:
U see there are many such apps out there.. as far as my experience, i say these battery saving apps dont work.. the particular application u are running or your kernel will eat the amount of battery they need to work.. u use whatever, it wont stop them from using your battery.. if you are on custom kernel try undervolting.. if you are soo much concerned with your battery drainage.. but keep in mind.. its risky to play with OC n UV.. dont blame me later if u spoil it:p

Hit thanks if it helped..:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] manoj_nike15:
Turn off the wifi n data off wen u dont use it..

Keep ur brightness level as low as possible...

Yeah you're right man ! Just do it manually ! Those apps just auto do it for us ! But we can do it manually by ourselves without wasting our free ram :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Kyoraki:
I'm currently trying to restore a broken Galaxy Mini with no menu button by installing CM9, but I'm having issues getting the thing into download mode, so I can install CWM via Odin. So far tried the combinations of Home+Power+Volume, and Back+Power+Volume with no results. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yackovsky:
Volume down + home + power should work :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Kyoraki:
Not working, and nor does any other combination. Is there any other way to enter the download mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Gurniwa:
if you still on cm9, there's an option to go to download mode via reboot menu on power button.

if not, find a reboot app from play store..

I once broke the power button so I can't put the phone to any mode, imagine that.:(:D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Kyoraki:
Sadly the device does not have CWM or any other recovery installed, so using the CM power menu or a root app is out of the question. I'm thinking more along the lines of ADB commands, or windows batch files that could force the device into download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
There's a command

adb reboot download

But it normally do not works
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franklin Bernard:
Hi Guys,

I am a noob here. I have never used a android phone before, not even a iPhone - so basically no smart phones.My first smart/android phone would be Nexus 4 which would be coming tomorrow.

I have been reading threads to understand andriod architecture and believe have understood to certain extent.

I have a question in clocking the CPUs and Voting.

As I understand, we have 3 states -Max, Min and Sleep for a single CPU core

Max - The frequency (clock speed) which CPU executes or maximum speed which CPU sends signals to its components and get the response back. This would be used when the system is on - which means when user is doing some process.. like texting, video chat, gaming (this case GPU is also involved) etc.

Min - This would be for background process when the user/phone is idle - that when screen is off (eq - gmail sync, facebook sync etc..)

Sleep - Screen off and no background process , the core will be in sleep.

And the battery level will be directly propotional to speed of CPU with respect to the volting.

Now lets say there is a single core processor in a phone which can clock upto 1.5GZ. and the stock kernel comes up with Max - 1.3GZ and MIN -0.5 GHZ.

Question is abt overclocking minimum frequency

1. why not overclock the Mn frequency to 1.3Ghz? because the backgroundprocess would be fast and phone/core will be sleeping after that,

which means process consumes more battery at that particular time but overall baterry should be efficient as there would be more sleeping time.

2. About volting, so far I have not seen min and max volting. So is there only one voltage/power drawn for max and min CPU speeds by CPU?

Please correct me if any of my statements is wrong.

Appreciate your help,

Thanks,

Franklin B.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karim Kahale:
Overclocking the minimum frequency to 1.3ghz would probably decrease your processor's life if you use your phone too much but I have been actually increasing my phone even 200mhz more than it was in stock ROMs, i've been using my device for more than 2 years and it still works perfectly. Finally, it all depends on how much your phone is good.

I also decreased the cpu min and max frequency when phone sleeps to 256 mhz which decreased a lot battery consumption.

Hope i helped !

Don't forget the THANKS button :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince147:
1.you can but your battery life will be drastically reduced! There is a good amount of time after the screen is off and before the phone sleeps! So if over clock the min to 1.3Ghz, the processor will be running at 1.3Ghz till it goes to sleep! But if that's what you want you can do that!

2 . I'm not so sure about this topic either but I think the processor operates at a particular voltage and I could be wrong!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franklin Bernard:
Thank you Guys
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _motley:
Hi, I received your PM. I agree with the guys about the heat issues, longevity, and battery life etc. The answer to your question #2 will help you better understand things.

In all kernels, there are frequency/voltage scaling tables. For every frequency step (clock speed) in the table, it corresponds to a specific voltage. It gets a bit more complicated than this of course, but that is the basic way things are setup in the kernel. The higher the frequency, the higher the voltage is required to be to keep the CPU (or GPU, bus, RAM etc.) stable at a given clock speed. The more voltage, the more current, and the more heat is generated. The longer you stay at higher clock speeds/voltages, the better the cooling system you need to have. Supply regulators are defined to feed the core and rail voltages so that the processor can live in a happy environment no matter what it is being asked to.

As far as power consumption, it's all about getting a unit of work done in a timely/efficient fashion using the least amount of power consumption. If the phone is sleeping, the word "timely" takes on a different meaning so then it is mostly concerned with power consumption and getting the background tasks completed effectively without having the phone experience the sleep of death (SOD). What you are talking about is the theory of "race to sleep" so that the work can be done quickly and the phone can go back to sleep where it uses the least amount of power (clocks actually turn off during deep sleep and cores are turned off). However, there is a happy medium to this theory and heat and battery consumption are the main enemies. Heat can also rob efficiency, more current is required when a circuit heats up. The more a phone wakes up to do syncs for email, apps, social networking, missed calls etc., that work can stack up throughout the day. The question comes down to how can the device get this work done using the least power and keep the device cool. On the N4, the lowest frequencies can use ~700-800mV per core while the highest frequencies can use ~1100mV. There is a drastic difference in the amount of heat generation between this range.

I think this should give you the general idea and maybe more that you wanted to know! Here are some links to check out if you are interested. Google and you will find many many more articles and research papers.

[HTC One S] Daiskei:
Does the 1.06 hboot (just downgraded yesterday) allow you to flash roms without flashing the boot.img seperately or is that only possible with S-Off? I reverted my supercid back to TMOB-010 after downgrading if that makes any diff.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
If you use TWRP then it does, its the reason I downgraded.
[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
I'll sneak in a question here...

Apart from the official OTA not working, which doesnt work with unlocked bootloader anyway, is there any downside with downgrading hboot?

Im still not sure why the hboot would need downgrading, but everyones talking about it so I guess there gotta be a reason for it lol
[HTC One S] Darknites:
OTA can be flashed on unlocked bootloader but need to have stock recovery. there is no downsides but a bunch of upsides like TWRP flashing boot.img also change radio and wifi partitions and also do this sweet mod.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
Concur with Darknites--

I was lucky and got .06 "out of the box". Don't need ADB/Fastboot/Flash Image GUI for boot images.

Can flash all roms with boot image inside them and any radio/recovery I want thru Fastboot.

Only now just started using CM Installer to flash whatever radio I want on CM roms--but, that is a different matter.
[HTC One S] yz250il:
I just did the last official OTA update (I actually found nothing wrong with that update except the battery history screen) and now i have Hboot 2.15.

Thanks

Hi, I have a GS1, GS2 (hardly mine but still) and a GS3. For GS1 there is an abundance of ROMS, kernels etc. İn a couple of days after a new Android version gets released lots of ROMS become available. When it comes to GS2 and GS3 though, there are hardly any choices. For example, at the moment there are about 10 4.2.1 ROMs just in the first page of I9000 development. There is none for the others.

What is the reason for this even though the other two have much higher userbases? Just curious. Happy holidays.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
GS 1 needs development GS3 does not so much .

There are only so many variations on themed roms .

Its a devs choice what to build and if you are lucky to share with XDA users .

A fair number no longer post on XDA as they are fed up with idiotic questions .

You can speed the process up by donating a SGS3 to a dev .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inagalaxyfaraway:
Is that idiotic questions part for me? It is hardly an idiotic question. With a little overclock I can get more performance out of my GS1 than GS3, the stock performance is really low. I've seen lots of comments how it takes too long to open the phone and contacts apps etc. It is not like I'm angry for no development. It is a simple question.

I've been donating money to everyone who helped me. Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meemo23:
Like the person above you said there are only so many variation in themes for a rom.. Plus GS3 is fast as it is so making a rooted custom rom is for apps and themes.. Also for those apps that need root.. Anyway he is also right dev's deffo get fedup after a while due to the same question asked so many times. They make FAQ's but that still results in so many same questions..

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inagalaxyfaraway:
I've misunderstood your post, sorry about that. You've suggested me to donate a SGS3 and obviously it is hardly possible for anyone, so I've assumed you were angry for this post.

Anyway, again I am sorry for that misunderstanding.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkoper:
You may have answered the question yourself. Userbase is bound to be higher, hence more custom roms.

GS1 has been out for nearly three years. GS3 about half a year.

I didn't have a very close look, but the 10 4.2.1 roms you mention are probably all CM kangs.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
Number of JB 4.2 ROMs shouldn't really matter, as they will probably be quite similar in the general functions they offer. Will all of those 10 JB 4.2 ROMs be so unique from each other that they look like HTC vs Samsung for example? I wouldn't think so. Not downtalking the importance of developers or anything but you can customise the ROMs to your taste using the mods and apps in the Themes & Apps section if you want diversification.
