[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk92595:
I have T-Mobile with 200mb data and unlimited text. I was wondering if there is an app that let's me text for free using my number. I want to cancel my texting plan and upgrade to unlimited data.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evonc:
Unsure if you can text from your own number that you currently use but being in the US, I'd suggest Google Voice as probably being your best alternative for free texting/calling.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Yep, use Google Voice.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Google Voice is probably the best. Still lacks a lot of features such as MMS though :/

Why is it the best?

- You can forward calls from ur GV # to ur real #. So it acts as a proxy, meaning people can call & text you at the same # whereas other text apps will just let you text but not call.

- Free calling to canada if you're into that :p
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk92595:
So what number would I give friends? Gv or my number?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evonc:
Your friends get your Google voice number and the free calls are nice bonus. I'm from Canada so i set it up a while back through a proxy to be able to text friends in the US.

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Your Google Voice number. They text you and if they call you on your GV number, it gets forwarded to your number.

Also to what evonc said, free texting to US & Canada. No ridic international text charging from your carrier. Only loss is emojis and MMS if you use GV though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk92595:
Okay but won't I get charged for texting since it is forwarding to my number?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
No. It's only forwarded on phone calls if they call your GV number. Texting within the GV app is free.

Phone calls to GV # -> Forward to your real #

Text to GV # -> Syncs to Google Cloud (Free)

You can also set your Voicemail for your real # to GV so it forwards to GV # for voicemail transcriptions etc
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XeroHertZ:
Hi,

A few days ago I was able to use wifi direct and send files from my S2 to a friend's Note 2...now when I get into it all the buttons are greyed out and I can't do anything. I haven't changed anything since then...so not sure what messed it up !!!

Any suggestions??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Batman Beyond:
Hi im new here and i only saw threads regarding other variants of the GNII boot animations.

My story is I wanted to change my bootanimation because i rooted and i did just that, but now I would like to restore it back to the AT&T stock version but i dont know how. If i unrooted is there a way for the files to go back in the original factory settings? Or do i need to download it from the internet and use it as a custom animation?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Staf1988i:
Guys i m having a problem. I cannot upgrade to ICS Aurora.. I have a miui version with 32 kernel. I m going to flash on Official GB, but when it finishes, the phone is rebooting all the time.

What have to do..??
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nagato.fm:
Boot into recovery (the official recovery is fine too) and make factory reset. After that reboot the phone.

That helped me when I was in your situation.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Staf1988i:
I made that but nothing happens.. It s the first time a have this problem..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nagato.fm:
Try to flash official froyo and then gb (b517).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Staf1988i:
When i m flashing on Froyo it s ok.

When i m going to GB it stucks on the boot screen. Shows every time the Huawei logo, then rebboting and again the same..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncledoobie:
So I've been more of a stalker of the XDA community for a while, never really needed to ask a question because I usually find the answers on the boards pretty handily or by some fluke things work for me without the need to post anything. But now that time has come to an end.

I had Jellybam 4.1.2 on my device flashed with whatever kernel came with it, and when my battery died yesterday the phone was stuck in a boot loop. Keep in mind that prior to that 1) It had never done this on a reboot and 2) the correct kernel had been flashed via fastboot. My hboot is 1.14. The reason I'm not posting this question in the Jellybam post in android development is because 1) I'm a n00b to posting on here and 2) this is now happening with any other rom I install (most recent is MIUI which I flashed late last night, started up normally, then got caught in a boot loop on a reboot).

I follow the normal steps of going into TWRP, flashing cache/davlik, factory wipe, system wipe, then installing, doing the gapps if necessary, or following the instructions on any aroma installers, then rebooting into fastboot and flashing the kernel so i don't get boot loops on the initial start up. I'm also doing this on a mac, but the command lines in terminal are pretty straight forward and i'm just doing normal ADB / fastboot commands.

I'm perplexed now and I can't figure out what changed or what I did differently that's causing this. Any help would be most appreciated and I apologize if this is somehow a cross or repeat post, but I couldn't find much like it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ToxicWaste:
Do you have an Evita or Endeavour phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] subarudroid:
It sounds like you are doing everything correct. Also seems like you have a good grasp of what to do. My thought is even if your initial install went though. Something in the bootimg may be corrupt. Perhaps try redownloading your preferred rom? And try again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncledoobie:
Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] uncledoobie:
I've tried a couple times with the same result. I'll try again and see if anything different happens. Maybe just by some miracle I'll get it working again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] subarudroid:
I'm not sure how it works with safari for Mac. I do know that when I download ROMs with crome it some how downloads corrupt zips. On ei9 it works fine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ImagioX1:
My phone did this once too. Never figured out why but the way I stopped it was to nandroid data, then wipe everything, reinstall the Rom and restore only data. After this it never bootlooped again.

Didn't do anything much on it, didn't even install drivers on my pc for it. i just connect it through WiFi and that's about it. i got a problem when putting in my email, so i guess i just put it in wrong so i was goin to try back later. When i came back to the Kindle, it was just at the boot screen ("kindle fire") and its been there since. I tried draining the battery, i also tried the hold down for 20 seconds but still no prevail. Guys i need your help i just got it. I live in Trinidad and returning the thing from amazon is a pain. it cost a lot of money to send it back. so help me out here guys thanks. :crying:
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:

It sounds like you are gonna have to use the recovery software and a factory cable (usb with pins 1 and 4 shorted together)

And flash it back to stock, since a return to amazon is out...

[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tesla67:
How well is it held in place? Some poetics are holding too tight and I wanted to know how this one is.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] arunvk:
its a perfect fit.. not tight at all..

the right speaker is partly covered.. the left speaker is just fine.. maybe thats the reason why they were sold cheap.. the manufacturer might have considered it defective.. no big deal.. none of the ports are blocked.. and the overall build quality is good...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tesla67:
Just what I needed to know this tablet is my baby after all ;)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
That is what I was thinking when I got it.

I posted about this deal also in the original Nexus cases/covers, reviews thread.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tesla67:
My speakers are perfectly aligned you might want to check and see if your tablets seated right in the case. Or maybe I'm just lucky lol.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] johnyguy:
The nexus 10 has the speaker on the top portion of the side and this case is obviously covers them has the holes 2/3 down

Unless I don't see it right. Just like a case I ordered and returned it cause speaker was covered one side otherwise was a nice case. Was a defective product...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tesla67:
Lol didn't even notice it. Thanks for pointing that out but even still doesn't seem to block much sound.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
I thought it blocked the sound a lot cause it blocks the top where it comes out.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tesla67:
I haven't noticed a deference but might just be me.

No difference noticed here either.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] LxMxFxD:
How long did it take to arrive? I ordered mine on Wednesday and tracking info is unavailable. Just wondering if they ship from china or something. I got the folio because the portrait typing looked good.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Bru87tr:
It is definitely blocked and different from the left one. Even the pictures show it, not sure why some are saying theirs are not.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] dmwagner:
Ordered on Jan 1, arrived on Jan 8. So 5 business days.

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

It's not blocked entirely. The reason that it is different on that side is the HDMI Port is in the way.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] johnyguy:
The actual speaker opening is on the top so its blocked ....just for the info..

Its a defective product. In my opinion
[Nexus 10 Accessories] dmwagner:
So the speaker grill running down the entire side does not let any sound out? Is it solid under that grill except up at the top?

EDIT... I answered my own question.... http://www.powerbookmedic.com/PartLocator/Google-Nexus-10-Front-s-94-v-289.html

Interesting fake speaker grills... LOL

It's amazing how darn good those speakers sound considering what they are physically.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tiggaman909:
I'm looking at my roocase Folio as we speak its not blocked entirely. The left side has a 4" cut out and the right side has a 3" cut out. My only complaint about this case is that its not as snug as i would like, but still not bad for a penny! I ordered the Slim yesterday as well, waiting on delivery....
[Nexus 10 Accessories] dmwagner:
Hit the link in my post directly above yours.... the speakers are actually at the extreme top of the device and do not really run all the way down the sides.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] LxMxFxD:
Yeah I was confused about the speakers running down the side of the device. Sound only emanates from the "top" of the speakers. These photos explain it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sectoras:
I have disassemble my device once before to replace my digitizer but i didnt spot any antenna, maybe there is one but i didnt see it i dont know.

And if so, would an extended antenna improve the signal ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Patrick Morgan:
Im sure Cyan had a option to use a bluetooth GPS module as default, (you select the internal GPS after first boot of the rom)

not sure about the hardware antenna, or if stock Roms have this feature.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sectoras:
Sorry i've been misunderstood. By extending i mean hacking / modding the hardware.

Does anyone know of a good place to buy this phone unlocked? I'd heard people talking about newegg before, but they seem to have the at&t version and i'd rather do without the little carrier tattoo under the earpiece.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] sbiricuda:
I did on negrielectronics.com

they rock.

Fast international shipping, very efficient customer service, good price.

The bad side is that they are not largely stocked with captivate glide. I had to check their site twice a day for 2 months before i could order one. If you found one, i would suggest you not to hesitate.

Edit: I saw mostly AT&T devices. Rogers ones were mostly refurbished but you can find brand new ones as well. Just be aware that their stock is limited.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875176361 clearly shows a Glide without AT&T branding. The box in the pic even says "Galaxy S Glide" which is the Rogers name for the phone. You could email Newegg and ask.

Any particular reason you want the Rogers version? The radios are identical.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Laugher19:
Maybe because he wants a few features the att version removes

[AT&T LG Optimus G] lightbody:
Your bootloader is locked. You'll have to LGNPST.

There instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2006946

Be sure to follow all the steps.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jimi_pooh:
dude you might have to do the following

Alternatively, you can use LGNPST to restore a factory image. You need to obtain the following files: LGNPST-PhantomPhreak53.zip, LGNPST_ACG_2.2.3_Lab.zip, and LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip. Follow the following steps (please note: I am less experienced with this process and find it much more tedious. Also, IMHO, I don't think the people you're returning the phone to will care if you leave some minor traces of your unlocking shenanigans. I think the process above this is more than sufficient and simpler). Credits go to Jhoopes517 for this process, he showed me how to do it in his thread.

(Install LG USB drivers)

Extract LGNPST_ACG_2.2.3_Lab.zip, run the installer. Open file explorer to C:\Program Files\LG Electronics\LGNPST and replace the current LGNPST_ACG.exe with the one in the extracted folder (if you are on a 64-bit version of windows, go to C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGNPST)

Extract LGNPST-PhantomPhreak53.zip and run LGNPST_GenericModels_Ver_5_0_12_0.exe and then run LGNPST_Components_Ver_5_0_20_0.exe

In file exlorer, navigate to C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST and copy over the "Models" folder from the extracted Phantom zip folder

Run cmd as administrator and execute the following

Code:

regsvr32 "C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Models\LGNPST_LS970.dll"

Extract LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip and change the extension of the .tot file to .bin

Connect phone to computer, power off, and then power on, holding down the power button and both volume buttons

Run the newly replaced LGNPST_ACG.exe from step 2. Select the DLL from step 5 and the .bin from step 6.

Press Start

If LGNPST errors out at 85%, turn your phone off and hold the power button until the phone powers on, then release. DO NOT disconnect the cable before LGNPST is done doing its thing. Your phone may reboot. This is OK.
