[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ttabbal:
I didn't know SLC had huge spectrum available to TMO like that. :D

Any idea on timeframe? At the office the tower I'm on is only doing about 1mbit/s. Happens outside, full signal. If I drive a bit to a different tower, I can do 10M+, even with lower reported signal levels. I'd love to get even that performance at work. LTE would be icing at that point, but I'll take it of course. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] milan03:
no clue, but they do have enough spectrum to keep their HSPA+42 AND deploy largest possible bandwidth LTE 2x20Mhz with speeds up to 150mbps...

Who knows when...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] personaje91:
How do I know the spectrum T-Mobile has in my area?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] milan03:
research on FCC.gov
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] personaje91:
And there is any way I can know how much they are using in the tower I'm connected? like when is in LTE that you can see how much Mhz they have in the tower in service mode, but In HSPA+ I don't get to see that in service mode.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Poke_N_PDA:
Okay, I think I figured it out. Here's what I found on the FCC website for searching for carrier's local frequency allocations. It's a little hard to konw what is what, so one will likely have to match it up the frequencies with the technology.

http://reboot.fcc.gov/reform/systems/spectrum-dashboard

I eventaully got here for my region which is oklahoma county in oklahoma (oklahoma city).

http://reboot.fcc.gov/spectrumdashboard/resultLicenses.seam?conversationId=60097

I was then able to learn that T-mobile has the following spectrum. The relevant bands are 1700 and 2100 which are their LTE and HSPA+ frequencies.

42	T-Mobile	AWS - 1	Broadband; Fixed Wireless; Phone	1745 - 1755, 2145 - 2155

43	T-Mobile	AWS - 1	Broadband; Fixed Wireless; Phone	1735 - 1740, 2135 - 2140

44	T-Mobile	Broadband PCS	Broadband; Fixed Wireless; Mobile Radio; Phone	1850 - 1865, 1930 - 1945

I don't know which is which, but this tells me that for LTE and HSPA+, T-Mobile has 2x10Mhz for one and 2x5Mhz for the other. Am I interpreting this right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] milan03:
That means in OKC T-Mobile has 30Mhz of AWS, and 30Mhz of PCS.

In order to deploy LTE or DC-HSPA+, you need contiguous spectrum.

They have two options:

1. DC-HSPA+ requires 20Mhz of contiguous spectrum. T-Mo has 20Mhz of contiguous AWS block F where they have DC-HSPA+ deployed. (1745-1755). That leaves them with 10Mhz of Block D open for 2x5Mhz LTE.

2. Downgrade DC-HSPA+ to HSPA+21 in the AWS, and move it to that 10Mhz Block D, and free up 20Mhz Block F for 2x10Mhz LTE. This would also be great because they could downgrade GSM in the PCS to 10Mhz, and have 20Mhz of PCS open to deploy DC-HSPA+ for more seamless transition.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Yoshi5005:
LTE

Dammit not Nashville! Well let's hope the update comes soon!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] milan03:
That rep probably meant "4G". Not LTE as I'd be getting LTE here in NYC...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Yoshi5005:
Well here in Nashville I have 4g and it's not on the list

Edit: he also stated that the late update is out for the S3 not the note 2 so I imagine you have a note 2 and that's why you don't have the lte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Markor13:
Las Vegas is the only city where LTE is live right now we are just waiting on the update. Also the S3 does NOT have LTE right now and I don't think it's getting it thats why the new S3 with LTE is coming out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Markor13:
Also I just noticed if you go to T Mobile.com and then go to support and questions and answers it actually says that we don't need an update for our phone and that LTE is already active on our phones... I always thought we needed an update to turn LTE on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] safeplayer22:
You got played...lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] aristo2jzgte:
Lte is already built in our phone! No need for update. Once tmobile update there towers to lte than out phone should automatically work with tmobile new lte service! I got this information from a regional manager at a tmobile store here in cali!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] personaje91:
Didn't T-Mobile said at CES that in did the Galaxy Note 2 could be updated to enable LTE, do it is not activated and it needs the update. www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2414056,00.asp
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
So our SIMs are LTE enabled? Galaxynote2root had a video on getting a verizon on another LTE network (overseas) but said it required a different SIM... is that just carrier specific or GNII came with it or what?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] truthkillszz:
ok first of all the t-mobile branded S3 does not have a lte chip so it is IMPOSSIBLE to have lte on a tmobile branded S3. Second our T-mobile branded NoteII has a LTE Chip but it is deactivated and needs to be activated via an update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Markor13:
I honestly believe that our phones do need an update to access the LTE Network, and I also thought we would have to get a new SIM card as well... I live in Las Vegas and have never seen my phone switch to the LTE icon and from my understanding Tmobile is going to have a new icon for LTE.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpeps3:
Is meen no lte ? Or metropcs
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shinkinrui:
The metroPCS merger has to be approved by metroPCS shareholders. If enough of them vote against it, it will stop the deal. Should this happen, it wouldn't cut off tmobile's lte plans completely, but it would reduce the amount of spectrum they will have available to deploy more lte in some major markets.

Not likely, though.

I don't think that is LTE bud...that is not even showing 4mbps. Not to mention I think it will have an LTE symbol instead of 4G.

Edit: sorry I didn't see the LTE symbol. Photo was small on my phone. That being said...that's some slow LTE? I don't even have LTE and I get data speeds 4x faster...

The stock calendar app on my Samsung Galaxy Note does not retain all of it's settings if I happen to reboot my device. I like using the Calendar View + List, but if I reboot my device it will reset itself to Calendar View + Pop-Up. It also does not retain the ringtone I choose. If I reboot, it will default back to the On Time ringtone.

Kindly tell, is this normal (if yes) then how much time it will take, (if not) then what should I do. Can I interrupt the process by pressing any key(which i don't know) . Does it make any problem if i reboot my mobile during this procedure.

Hi,

Is there any mod to set pixel density to 320.

I have X920D and I run Virtuous Rom

I tried through pixel density apps in play store but with no luck.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
You need a kernel that enables /system writing while booted then you can use one of the apps.
[HTC Droid DNA] BotsOne:
1. Boot into recovery

2. adb pull /system/build.prop

3. open build.prop in a text editor and edit the line that says "ro.sf.lcd_density=480" to say "ro.sf.lcd_density=320"

4. save the file

5. adb push build.prop /system/

6. reboot

EDIT: If you use anything between 320 and 480, it will work, but you are going to have issues with market apps not showing up. I personally prefer 400 DPI, but it mucks my market up. Not worth it to me.
[HTC Droid DNA] x70xchallengerx:
This ^

Also if you have a kernel which enables write-to-system, you can use Solid Explorer to go into /System and directly edit the build.prop and save it.

Though I believe if you switch from 480 to 320, it stops sense launcher from working. Which is why I use nova prime.
[HTC Droid DNA] MustafaHadaKing:
sense does not work with 320, you need an senseless rom
[HTC Droid DNA] kdahri:
thank you all that was helpfull
[HTC Droid DNA] SolusCado:
Sense does work down to about 370, and you can use LCD Density Modder Pro to download a modified version of the play store that thinks you're running 320.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhhindle:
Firstly hey I'm new here :) Long time "lurker" & user of XDA for both Desire HD & Atrix

The RAZR HD I purchased off ebay is being a little dicky, I'll run you through the process :P

-- Unboxed , plugged it in , green LED light is on

-- Try to turn it on , LED light is gone and will not return

----End up having to enter recovery mode to boot into android

-- Phone works fine , installing apps etc ( used for about 6-7 hours)

--LED is working for sms etc

--Turn it off this morning to check that it is okay now (It's not).

So when i try to turn it on normally a green wind-up droid with a spinning blue sphere inside of it appears with a blue loading bar.... this goes on for a minute before the green droid appears on it's back with a error sign above it (The phone then turns off)

From there the only way i can actually turn on the phone is the hold power+Down volume and then switch to up volume to enter recovery which stays for a second and then boots up into a reset phone (Due to the hard reset of power+Down volume i guess?)

When it was running it was going fine!, I can't really be bothered sending it back & would rather fix it myself

I'm thinking the error has something to do with the battery? (e.g corrupted battery stats?)

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgumble:
[solved]

I had exactly the same problem with a brand new unused RAZR HD,

here is the solution (maybe for all RAZR phones?) [german]

I try to translate in a few words:

you need to hold down the reset IMMEDIATELY both volume keys
until the boot loader (I hope I do not rename the whole thing wrong now) appears.

In the menu that appears choose the recovery point, after which
first the screen goes black and then the Android males appear.

Now press again BOTH volume buttons and the menu (similar to the
ClockworkMod Recory menu) to reset the device is displayed.
[it took me some tries to figure out the right point of time]

Here you have the menu option to reset the data and cache
area [ I did this twice ]
and then perform a reboot of the Razr.

After performing these steps in the Bootloop kicked me on and
I could no longer continue with the set.

ATTENTION: When resetting all the data in the internal memory
(contacts, SMS, calendar entries, etc.) will be deleted ...
the Micro SD should remain untouched!

because there must be some error on data partition, flashing an new ROM afaik touches only the system partition

The problem with any case which has a cover is that the cover can get to be quite annoying after a while, especially if you want to dock the phone. It is just ALWAYS there. I finally gave up my flipcase for a standard case just because I finally got tired of always having to mess with the cover.

Also, I have never understood the point of the clasp closure. Under what circumstances are you worried about your flip case flying open?

Would have to see this case in person. The material has a cheap look to it in the video.

There appears to be no magnet in this case. Capdase has reputation for making great iPhone cases. I purchased Capdase accessories for the Note 1 and Galaxy S2 in the past. The only thing that bothers me for the Note 2 accessories is that the buttons are exposed.
