Get him to remove the phones IMEI off his account before he sells it to you

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsmforlife92:
He's selling it because he doesn't like stock android and he wants the galaxy s4 now
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsdta:
That's assuming he/she pays the etf. Some won't and could care less about their credit. Seller could be selling an already stolen phone and banking on getting rid of it before iemi is blacklisted.

I've also heard people use fake info to sign up for a 2 year contract get phone then just stop paying
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QUIETLYloud:
sounds reasonable... vanilla's not for everyone
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradm23:
IMO, pay the $50 extra from one directly from Google. $300 sounds tempting but it could easily turn into 650
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsmforlife92:
Yea that's true I might just buy it from the play store if I sale my lg optimus g and galaxy nexus
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
Meet him at a Tmobile store and have them check the phone and make the switch while you're there. It's not an ironclad guarantee you won't have trouble later, but it'll scare off the amateur scammer.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsmforlife92:
I'm just going to buy one off the play store when I sell my optimus g and galaxy nexus. I love my optimus g but miss all of the development of the nexus

[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
Hi guys,

please advise me in exchanging my sensation XE with a Desire X or not? :(

i'm really getting mad about htc's support for my device! There's no even sense 4.0 officially! Whereas desire x is rocking JB along side sense 4+ i think! :(

what are your opinions?
[HTC Sensation] owner eod:
The desire x is worse hardware wise but better software wise.

I compared my senny to my friends desire x, I had a bigger screen crispier graphics and kicked ads in quadrant.

Don't give up on senny.
[HTC Sensation] sensation xe:
My name is the answer.
[HTC Sensation] ridder215215:
Here's a comparison: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4951&idPhone2=4164

Sensation over Desire X: faster processor, higher PPI, better camera, ex-flagship so lots of devs

Desire X over Sensation: launched with a later OS, BT 4.0 instead of 3.0, lighter (I prefer a heavier phone anyway)

In the end, it comes down to what you think is more important.

Also, I think the Desire X is ugly, whereas the Sensation is a real beauty.
[HTC Sensation] itsjustmeagain:
If the Desire X had a compass, I would buy it immediately.

But it's nearly useless if your into geocaching.

Apart from that, it's a great phone for a great price. I bought one for my mother.

She loves it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
I have officially screwed up my RSU. I can boot into CE just fine, but there is no radio stack to speak of. After having many partial attempts, there's just nothing there. I've tried everything (or so it seems). I can do an activesync connection, btw.

Whenever I try to run PROGRAMME A, it just hangs. I hit the next button and *nothing* happens. That's any program a, whether from ATT or Tmobile.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Oswald:
Hi there,

Did oyu try installing the Radio Stack Programma A thingy from another windows installation? Another pc? Perhaps that will work.

Os course... you could be trying to install a version which is not suited for your GSM provider/GSM hardware. Look for info at your GSM provider website. It's hard is not impossible for anyone here to tell you which version should work for your device.

Cya,

Oz
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Yeah...I tried it on my laptop too. The problem seems to be program b, which rewrites the RSU. It simply won't do it for some reason. This shouldn't be the case.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Come on....someone must have some stupid trick to re-flash the radio stack. I remember seeing solutions to the "1% problem," but all of those solutions were with the non-US radio stacks. :-/ I didn't buy my phone from Tmo, so I have no warrenty to speak of.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] valheru:
which rom and ruu were you using? seems like you were using the .exe correct? which unit/network are you on? this might help you get some help. be specific with the problem, etc.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Freshster:
What versions (ROM and Radio Stack) were you using prior to running the EXE upgrade?

What versions are currently installed?

And which radio stack are you trying to upgrade to?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
I was using 4.00.005 and the newest ATTWS ROM before, and I was trying to go to Yorch's newest Tmobile beta, the one that includes the RSU.

Right now I have the most recent official Tmobile ROM and no radio stack on there.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] mdavidm:
Ejdmoo:

After decompressing the rar file, look for the two RSUpgrade files; one is .cp64 and the other is .exe. Copy them via Activesync to the windows directory on your TMo PPCPE. Then execute the RSUpgrade.exe file. That should reflash the new radio stack. It worked for me. Good luck!

David
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] gizmogeek:
I am in the same boat as ejdmoo, and had the same roms installed and all that good stuff...still no go with fixing the radio stack. One thing I noticed is that I removed the .cp64 file from the \windows directory and it still tried to update and failed at 1%. I don't think the version of the .cp64 file matters since it is not getting that far.

Another issue that popped up after the failed update is th unit does not charge, it will only run on AC, and it does not show a status in the power app under settings. Bout you ejdmoo?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Come to think of it, I am having the same power/charge problems. Also, I have tried copying the RSUpgrade.exe program to the device multiple times and from multiple sources. Also, I copied some of the other required files (something map and .c64 file), still didn't work. I think it *must* have to do with the RSUpgrade.exe, but I wouldn't know why.

FYI...I'm going on vacation this week (luckily I have a backup phone), but I expect this to be fixed when I get back! ;) :!:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] gizmogeek:
This is what adaptrom returns now, this is when the tmo is connected and browsable via AS. Anyone have any ideas why this would be happening?

Since my unit will be replaced I am willing to do some scary things with it, so if any of the xda-devolopers want me to try something let me know. I have an sd reader/writer and a usb cable but no serial cable.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Been there seen that!

Here is hope I fixed it:

First go to the below site and download and install the v4.21 ENG radio stack upgrade. Now here's the tricky part but I must warn you I did all three and really don't know which one did it, might have been a combo of all three.

1. Entered bootloader mode and selected the 900 band and re-booted.

2. Removed the SIM card and rebooted

3. Entered bootloader mode and turned off the radio.

Note you'll know when you got it right because you'll have a stable Active Sync connection. So after each of the above steps see how stable Active Sync is before trying the next step.

Reran the T-Mobile upgrade (PC install) and all went go well.

02 Radio Stack Upgrade v4.21 (1.54MB) Download.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
I'm not sure in which order you want me to do what...?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] mdavidm:
I had the same problem, but a hard reset fixed it for me.

David
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] barjohn:
For all of you having the same problem I have been having after upgrading to the O2 4.21 RSU here is what I have found makes the loading of the RSUpgrade files into the \windows directory work. You need to also copy the monitor_ul_bs.m0 and monitor_ul_bs.map files to the windows directory. Then when you execute the RSUpgrade.exe it works.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] gizmogeek:
barjohn you are a genius!!! :P :P I can't believe I never thought of moving the other files before...you rock I am now in possesion of a fully working WM2003 T-Mobile PPC PE!!!

Thank You barjohn!!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Boy I forgot about doing the hard reset, what step was that?

It must have came right after the Radio stack upgrade, Right!

So it appears that what works for some doesn't work for others, strange business!

I read barjohn's fix were he manually copied some missing files into the windows folder and that solved it for him, I guess we were just lucky! :?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
So it would be save to say that one should just copy the above files into the Windows folder first before starting the initial upgrade and forgo all of the other headaches, agreed!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] mdavidm:
Qman,

That's a great idea, but then we would miss out on the thrill of thinking we have transformed a great electronic device into a $400 paperweight! What fun is it if everything works out on the first try? Have fun!

David
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bimmer10:
Well Ive officially made my tmobile ppc a $400 paper weight. I was running the Kitchen rom with ATT radio stack and I attempted to update the RSU to the latest tmobile version to see if it improved the signal meter using the method mentioned here. I copied the files suggested here via activesync to the windows folder on my ppc and ran the exe, the upgrade stopped at 13% and that was it. Unfortunately I dont have a SD reader so Im high and dry until tomorrow. I can access the bootloader and I get the GSM error and thats it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Freshster:
Sirseymore,

Thanks for passing the word!

Even though my experience did not require me to copy the files "monitor_ul_bs.m0" and "monitor_ul_bs.map" into the \WINDOWS directory, it seems that many people are having better luck repairing their radio stack by copying these files over to the device along with the "RSUpgrade.exe" and "RSUpgrade.cp64".

It seems that each persons results are dependant on which radio stack they were previously running, as well as what CE ROM they are also running. Maybe one day we will have a Radio Stack/CE ROM matrix of upgrade paths that will tell us if we are running "A" radio stack and "B" CE ROM, then we need to apply "X" RSU and "Y" CE ROM for a flawless install. :wink:

Until then, all we can do is try, try, and try.

What doesn't kill our XDA's. . . . .

. . . . . makes us more knowledgeable.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Ok, I have it fixed now!! After lots of patience, and a little bit of luck, I just SD flashed to the newest ROM, put the RSU update on another SD card, and (what was always my mistake), copied it to the windows directory. That's what made it work. Thanks all!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] gwhitea:
Well even with the two RSUpgrade file and the two monitor files in my /Windows folder, I still haven't managed to re-load the O2 4.21 RSU - which had been working fine with the SER v1.2 ROM until yesterday morning!

What am I doing wrong??

Thanks in advance

Geoff
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
Try with a different CE ROM. Keep trying with different CE ROMs. Try without the map files.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Strange, If I were you I would enter bootloader mode and check my band.

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] jta:
Do you folks think it is possible to DOWNGRADE the Radio Stack from 6.24 to 6.18 using the 'Copy to Windows Dir' of RSUpgrade.exe and associated files?

I am returning a defective TMo phone, but I need to get the original OS and RS back on it, i think...

It right now comes up with 'Test Version not for Sale'... from the 4.00.10 TMo rom upgrade...

I need to try to downgrade, but having no luck as adaptrom fails, and the RUU wont run...

Any help would be appreciated.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] gwhitea:
GSM is turned off - and I don't seem to be able to turn it on in Bootloader mode.

I've tried going back to the official O2 3.17.03 ROM (cooked in Jeff's kitchen) - but now it won't even boot into the Today screen - I just get part of the screen, and it seems to only be senitive to taps at random unmarked places!

I've come to the conclusion that something is seriously wrong - and now that I've got it back to an official ROM, I've arrange for O2 to collect and fix/replace it - hopefully a practical, if not elegant, solution. But it will take "up to a week"!! :(

Thanks everyone for the attempts to help.

Geoff
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Jaron:
May i know which RSUpgrade.exe and associated files you guys are talking about? Because i downloaded the O2 4.21 RSU and only found a RSUpgrade.sa.CAB file along with the setup.exe, setup.ini, setup.dll and rilgsm1.dll files... tried opening the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB and only found these files.... 000setup.999, 0rilgsm1.005, monito~1.002, monito~1.003, rsupgr~1.000, rsupgr~1.001 and rsupgr~1.004... there isn't any "monitor_ul_bs.m0" or "monitor_ul_bs.map" files you guys talked about... anyone can help?? Thanx![/quote]
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Thats them just run the RSUpgrade.sa.CAB from your device and they'll get extracted. :P

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Jaron:
ok the radio stack upgrade started BUT now it's in the neverending 1% upgrade failure loop.... i've delete the shortcut to the programme B which activates the update so at least i can boot properly to windows... so now what's the solution? why did it keep failing at 1%?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Ok now locate and copy RSUpgrade.exe, RSUpgrade.cp64

,monitor_ul_bs.map and monitor_ul_bs.m0 to your windows folder then double click RSUpgrade.exe this should start the radio upgrade going again.

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Jaron:
Sorry for the trouble but i've locate the rsupgrade.exe in the windows folder and executed it... Again it failed at 1%.... Is there other ways to remedy it? i'm currently using the Windows Mobile 2003 (4.00.05) cooked from the ROM Kitchen... i'm trying to save my radio stack by installing the O2 4.21 RSU...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
It maybe a little late to ask but you did turn the radio off before you started the upgrade, right?

Also confirming you moved all four of those upgrade files in the windows root folder?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Jaron:
The radio stack was already corrupted in the first place (no G and R versions in the boot screen) and so there isn't any radio to turn off.... Yes the 4 files are there in my root directory (/Windows).... i know this is tricky but i hope someone who has done it can help me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vixhex:
Hey everybody,

First off, what an amazing community. I've learned so much and it's become really easy and fun to enhance my Android experience. :D

I have a Verizon Note II and decided to flash PACMAN ROM because of it's multiple interesting enhancements based on CM10.

Everything works amazingly well, except GPS just will not lock while "Wi-Fi & Mobile network location" (WF&MNL) is enabled in the "Location Settings" section.

When WF&MNL is enabled, (along with GPS of course), I cannot get a lock no matter how long I leave the device searching. When I launch any of the GPS status applications loaded from the play store, the satellites never show up at all, no signal bars, no activity, let alone do I get a lock. It's like it won't even try.

When I disable WF&MNL and try again, the satellites show up in seconds and I have a lock shortly thereafter. I can then re-enable WF&MNL setting and it will work until I reboot, and I've also seen it stop working when I try to run another GPS app later in the day.

So, for anybody who needs a workaround until you find your individual solution, or until a fix is released . . . I offer that up.

The problem is Google Now relies on WF&MNL, as do other applications/services, so that is not really an option to leave it off . . . all in all, the pro's outweigh the cons for this ROM and I love everything about it!!

Here is what have done so far to troubleshoot:

Restored my factory backup which was taken in TWRP immediately after the bootloader unlock and root - No issues there. GPS works.

Wiped Cache/Dalvik/System and installed CleanROM - No issues there, GPS works.

Wiped Cache/Dalvik/System and installed three different versions of PACMAN in this order 20.0.0, 20.0.1, and 20.1.0 - Didn't help

Tried installing different versions of GAPPS with each of the PACMAN ROMS (latest as well as the one linked in the OP) - Didn't help

Re-flashed the VRALL4 modem based on some suggestions - Didn't help

Inserted a modified GPS.conf file based on some suggestions - Didn't help

Tried to flash a GPS fix from another thread (sorry I can't find the thread to save my life at the moment, it was one with a "generic google" fix since the GNII wasn't on the list) - Didn't help

Restored my post root factory backup again and did not wipe cache/dalvik/system when flashing PACMAN - Didn't help

I read some threads about going back to factory and then rooting/flashing clean all over again. I would have gone that route, but other ROM's work with both location options enabled, so I'm not sure where to look next. I've searched the forums high and low and haven't gotten anywhere with the suggestions.

EDIT: I should have probably posted this in the questions section, I went to general when I was denied access to post in another thread I was following. Sorry for the noob mistake.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] s10sdeville:
Its a problem with the cm based roms or aosp 4.2.2 i just leave wifi and network unchecked and if apps ask or watever i deny it and it works fine im on cm 10.1 and use my gps daily without issues i dont even notice a problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rokeno:
I have installed PAC version 21.0.1 and GPS is not working at all. the icon doesn't even appear, nothing to lock on. my Baseband version is 12.69a.60.29U_26.17.14.11_M.

Anyone has an idea on what to change? (except switcging to another ROM)

Get a lock in another rom then immediately restore your backup of pacman while it's still locked

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intercrew:
Was curious what sound chip this phone uses? And if there is any differences between regional like the galaxy s3?

I'm tempted to get Galaxy S4 just because it has better specs but at the same time, if the processor of the S4 isn't that big of a difference to this snapdragon 600, I might as well get One.

I own the S3 and the snapdragon on this phone is pretty bad, lags often happen, slow too and not to mention some games don't run well either unless they are simple games such as temple run. However games such as real racing, MC 4, NOVA 3, etc often lag or graphics are not that great.

What is making me even consider an HTC phone is because of the design, GUI, and the solid finish. I've always been a fan of the Sense layout :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
Benchmarks right now shows that HTC One can compete with SGS4. And of course HTC One is way off the level on the like of HTC One X or SGS3. But SGS4 has a much more powerful GPU on it but problem is 90% of the latest android handsets uses Adreno GPU which is not the case with SGS4 that uses PowerVR instead. So game compatibility would be rare if you ask me.

And by the way I hate samsung so you really won't expect any good about SGS4 from me but still what I have said are all correct so depends if you will believe me or not. :)
