[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
The build-in SIM is for international roaming....

You would have to put a TMobile SIM in. Make sense?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] k1darkknight:
Yeah...just wasn't sure if it was preprogrammed, and unable to be re-programmed. Anyway, I'm leaning toward the phone that T-Mobile DOES carry, that's almost as good, just not QUITE as big a screen, and just SLIGHTLY lower resolution. But looks to be good enough. (Samsung Galaxy S Relay)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
Few notes: On Droid 4 (which has normal microSIM card) other US carriers are SIM locked by the modem software (the rest of World works) - so some risk is there too. Additionally as far as I know, T-Mobile US has mostly 3G on 1700 MHz, while Photon Q supports 850 / 1900 / 2100 MHz - so you'll have trouble with 3G. Also LTE is on 1900 MHz which is emplyoed only by Sprint as I read, so no avail there either on T-Mobile. Additionally, it looks like Photon Q has no EDGE, so you'll enjoy nice 2.5G most of the time, unless you are in the 1900 MHz area for 3G.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Madvillan:
Quite the dream crusher. This would have been the perfect phone for me if I were able to just flash it over to T Mobile for service in the US. Humph, guess I'll finally have to go for a fully touch phone (yuck) or just keep the current lame thing I have (Galaxy Indulge on MetroPCS :l ) until I find something remotely better.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] PassingThruLife:
Why not try a droid 4,i know there is a way to get that working on gsm carriers.

Im currently using a droid 3 that works on gsm carriers and its pretty good.im running it on att and the only comparable slider on att is the captivate glide.

i would love to be able to use a photon q on att but there does not seem to be an easy way to do it...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
Droid 4 has simcard slot for GSM and with some mods,I can use RUIM CDMA. It also has HSDPA and Evdo revB support. Really an all in one phone. but,I heard the GSM won't work on USA. I'm ordering a Photon Q. I hope it's better than my D4. I know I have to mod the hardware to use slot simcard. So,I might pass it and using CDMA only via flashing my own carrier.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Madvillan:
I tried a friend's droid 4 a while back and remember not liking it. Thinking now though I may be confusing my experience with another device.

From my understanding I thought you could softmod the phone to GSM but I guess I've been reading wrong the entire time. Don't want to plop down money and say screw it and buy the phone only to get it and put it all the effort to have it not work, then have to boggle through the return process.

sad face.

edit: really wish I could remember my old account... I feel like such a n00b with a lame join date
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:

AW: [Q] Considering Photon Q...for T-mobile?

I can't understand why one in US whould go through all that trouble with soldering new sim and frequenzy problems, instead of using the Q with Sprint? Is Sprint network so bad @ US?

If it would be possible to use the Q without soldering in Germany with a german provider i would have changed my contract to this provider. The Q is definetly worth the trouble.

I've had to make the sim mod done by cornolio (Thanks again man for this awsom work!) And now hav one of the best phones in my oppinion here in germany working.

The only disadvantage I can life with is the unusable LTE because of the lack of frequencies in Germany.

Just my 2 cents

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] redsrule2500:
I'm considering this option due to AT&T pricing and availability of my current unlimited data plan.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Mordannon:
That depends on the area. With the whole network vision upgrade in the chicago area and their new endeavor to absorb all of the US cellular customers in the chicago area, it has been a challenge to remain loyal to sprint. Most annoying thing is answering the phone and having the person on the other end not be able to hear you. This has been going on with every 3rd or 4th call i get for two months. I stick with sprint because i have always had good results with their customer service and i use alot of data. No one else offers really unlimited data in this area.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] deedscreen:
UGHHH!!!

I want this device usable on T-Mobile SOOOOOO BAD!!!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] zDisturbed1:
Pricing is a big deal sprint is better than Verizon but thats not saying much. Tmo recently went to an everything unlimited for a flat rate pricing plan and before that there is a smaller lesser known company called simple mobile that basicly sells you tmo service for a flat rate like tmo does now but its less a month. If I could put my simple mobile sim in the photon Q I would be getting unlimited miniutes txt and data at 40 for 3g or 50 for 4g with sprint the cheapest plan with only 450 miniutes is 80 by comparison.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Deadman001:
The photon Q does support hsdpa at 1900mhz which, too my knowledge, tmobile just got set up on the national scale. Could be wrong though
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] deedscreen:
I would absolutely love a souped up Photon Q for T-Mobile, not some ratty looking Spec'd up ugly slider.

So for any unlikely Moto Design Employees reading this thread (chances - slim to none) haha, the device of my dreams...

Motorola Photon Q Styled...

- 4.5" 1080p Corning Gorilla Glass 3 Protected Display

- Military 810G Water/Dust Proof Device

- 2,500mAh Lithium-Ion Battery

- Native T-Mobile 4G LTE, HSPA, HSPA+, 3G & Edge Capable Device

- 1.8ghz Quad-Core Processor w/ 3GB of RAM

- 10+MP HD/1080P Camera-Camcorder

- WiFi

- Bluetooth 4.0+ w/ Backwards Compatability

- NFC

- IR Blastster

- Unlock(ed/able) Bootloader

- Android 4.3

- Dual Noise Cancelling Microphones

- MHL Support

- Scratch-proof Bezel

- Carbon Fiber Enforced...

(Something that would blow the S4 & HTC ONE to Shreds!)

I can sure dream though, right? Tell me something, am I the only one feeling this way???

I have the S3, and I bought it for the internals not the look. This device would be awesome, anyone agree?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] deedscreen:
Well, the Motorola Droid 5 possibly for Verizon has leaked. In recent, those new Verizon Moto LTE Devices have been able to run on AT&T and T-Mobile's HSPA Networks. Not 4GLTE, but I'll take it. Now for those who aren't up to speed, don't mock me, yes Verizon uses CDMA, but they use GSM for LTE, hence the sim card slots on their devices.

It's supposed to be rugged and have built in Qi-Charging!!!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] shadowhawk2020:
Just what the name implies. I am going to test both batteries using the same settings on a few tests. They aren't going to be designed as "real world" tests, but a direct comparison in specific tests. The three quick ones I thought of:

Watch a full video, screen brightness all the way up, Airplane mode.

Stream 4 hours Pandora over wifi from same spot

Run the screen on video until the battery dies

Any other tests you guys want run let me know.

So for the first test I put on Total Recall, then switched batteries and put it on again. (pity me)

Surprisingly enough the Samsung battery is on the left two pictures, and the two on the right were the Anker battery. So despite the fact that the Anker was on 2 more minutes it still had 4 percent more life left. Tomorrow I will test Pandora.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] L551:
As the title says, I cannot access my hotmail email account via any email apps (Stock, Aqua, K9, MailDroid) while connected to the T-Mobile network. Internet access works just fine.

Now, if I connect to a WiFi network using the same settings, not changing anything, it will work just fine.

I contacted T-Mobile, and they said I need to contact Google about this problem, as it's not their fault that no apps can connect via their network.

So, XDA members, what do I do?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Jax184:
Switch providers! :laugh: Sure that would mean moving to Canada if you wanted to use another provider that supports the Sidekick, but would that really be so bad?

In all seriousness, I have utterly no idea.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] RicAndroid:
It's a Microsoft conspiracy. They want you to switch to Windows Phone. Just kidding.

Sorry. No clue on that one. It seems like the apps are configured to only work on wifi.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lenadariel:
No idea :(

If it was all apps, I would suggest talking to T-mobile about the status of your ESN, but you indicated you had net access otherwise.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] L551:
Yeah, I have net access otherwise just fine. Even my gmail works fine over T-Mobile. But trying to access my hotmail via it, will tell me "Cannot connect to server", or a variation on that error depending on what email app it is.

Wifi works just fine... I don't know what to do. T-Mobile is still adamant that their network is fine, and I need to "Call the Google" , as a rep stated. XD

This will lock the screen but not the buttons while watching Netflix and has not been updated in a while.

Basically I have a toddler that likes to watch Netflix on my phone but also likes messing with the buttons so it messes up the Netflix playback and I have to go back and restart it.

There are parental control apps that will restart apps when that happens but I would think there would be an app that would disable touch and buttons while Netflix still plays. I know that several media players will still play video when you lock the phone, so it's possible.

Anybody know of anything?

No more bootloop(after datawipe), but now it said that too little memory, cannot perform this action. I checked it from settings, no memory was mounted? Weird. Well, i did as i promised to my friend, installed remics jb v2, and gapps. Starts fine, incredibly fast compared to stock! Now i take the phone to my friend, and then he puts his sim card in, askes pin code, entered. Now, there is still nothing in signal bars. I check phone info, no imei(000000...00) imei sv 00.
