[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] racinmason001:
Ok everyone tmobile finally admitted to me that I am in a HORRIBLY BAD congested area of their network. No ETA on a fix either. I was given the option to return the phone cancel service and move on at no extra charge. I have until the 27th to make my decision. What should I do. Stay or go?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
If they are admitting it then it must be *REALLY* bad... If data speeds are more important than pricing to you, I say jump ship.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Wow! that is a rare thing indeed! Good luck on whatever you decide!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Don_Perrignon:
T-Mo is not lying. You're still on their 4G network, but as someone mentioned, it's probably congested. Additionally, for most areas, T-Mo's 3G and 4G network is the exact same technology. If you're paying for the 4G service, they take the "speed limiter" off. Simple as that. Most likely a bad area of Cali for T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
I'd like to see your sources for this because 3G UMTS, 3.5G HSDPA/HSUPA/HSPA+, and true 4G LTE are all different technologies. UMTS maxes out at 384Kbps, HSDPA ranges from 7 to 21Mbps, HSPA+ is up to 21Mbps but includes HSUPA for up to 5.76Mbps upload, and DC-HSPA+ is up to 42Mbps on the downlink with the same 5.76Mbps upload of standard HSPA+. 4G LTE can exceed 100Mbps.

While its true that they all operate off of wideband CDMA technology, they are NOT the same and require tower upgrades... T-Mobile does not discriminate based on your data plan. They discriminate based on your data usage compared to the plan you purchased and throttle you when you exceed what you paid for. Plain and simple.

Get your facts straight before you spout off nonsense.

EDIT: I am not aware if T-Mobile has deployed pico cells for UMTS anywhere but if they have, UMTS can go up to 2Mbps on a pico cell.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Don_Perrignon:
And, you're getting mad... for what? You need to chill. I have no idea why people get such superior attitudes when they correct someone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
Who said I was getting mad? You would know if I was. I'm just blunt.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Don_Perrignon:
And, honest about your misplaced superiority complex.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
You just need to admit that you were spreading incorrect information. If you haven't noticed, a single incorrect post gets more attention than the correct posts around here and then we have the forum filled with questions regarding said post.

Your post could have sparked a ton of angry customers calling T-Mobile for no reason complaining about a non-existent speed cap. So I corrected the information. Sorry you took it personally.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DustyVV:
I live in the same area! Closer to Victorville. Speeds are bad out here, but I think they're pretty bad, no matter who you have (I could be wrong).

Have you asked anyone at Tmo about getting a free CelFi? I was lucky, and got one early on. They tend to run out of them quickly.

It won't give you blazing fast speeds, but it might improve your signal at home. Before I got mine, I could barely download a picture text from a friend. Now, no matter where I am in the house, I get the pictures almost immediately. And I never have to use Wi-Fi calling anymore, because my signal is always strong. Like I said though...it won't give you blazing fast speeds. We live, where we live.

It's worth asking about. Perhaps ask for the Loyalty Dept. Sometimes they are able to help with things, that regular CS can't.

If they tell you they are out of stock, mention that it may make the difference in your staying with Tmo. Politely, of course. When I have any problems, I always make sure that they know I WANT to stay with Tmo.

Good luck. :)
[HTC Droid DNA] baronmxc:
Hey my fellow XDAers,

The emergency alert selections are missing in my message settings. The attached picture shows what I see when I select emergency alerts in settings. I have done a factory reset, and I have changed my radio to CDMA/LTE from Global with no avail. I am running a stock rooted ROM 2.06. Does anyone have any ideas before I attempt to reflash the ROM? These settings used to be there awhile back, but now they seem missing. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] adrianjr84:
Ive read that with the Tethering mod, you can tether for free. My question is how much can you tether with it until sprint notices high usage with no Tethering on my service? Say for example I watch a lot of movies. .that would use up a lot of data.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gharlane00:
They would not be able to tell if you were streaming netflix to the phone or through the phone. I have never heard of anyone being nailed for tethering per se but too much 3g data usage will get you in trouble.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myphone12345:
Occasionally you will see threads from folks who have gotten their service from Sprint terminated because of tethering. However, it seems like in most cass those users used a lot of data in (like tens of gigs in a month).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] retsehc:
I have run over 2GB a month for a year and they have yet to ask me about tethering or anything else on my HTC or my new Galaxy SIV. They have no idea what you are doing on the device except taking full advantage of the unlimited data plan. If they call you, tell them to suck it. Suck it long, suck it hard.

I think this will be good. But the title is a bit disturbing. An airborne car racing game.. Yeah, i know its the jump or whatever you want to call it.. Just it doesnt suit it well.

Guys, dont forget with the 3.4 kernel in its way it will support all android versions I think and with GB performance will be SPECTACULAR as the 3.4 Kerenl generally offeres much better battery & performance!

When DooMLorD finishes up on the Mogami bord then he will start with the zeusc bored (play) and it should be done by the end of summer hopefully (not sure...) and then we will have AMAZING PERFORMANCE! :D

Spread the hype!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] abdel12345:
Yes if the 3.4 kernel brings better performance and a 1.6 ghz overclock using a good gb rom (there's already plenty of those) and these new gameloft games might be able to run well. And if they don't optimize them game keyboard will come through for us. :D I'm going to keep my play for a bit longer if this kernel comes to the play :thumbup:

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] wedgess:
Sorry to dampen things but it will only be for JB much more work would be needed for ICS and support for GB is highly unlikely. There are many devs working on Mogami board devices at the moment, if we had as many for the PLAY working on it we would fly, but for 1 or 2 it maybe a lengthy process.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] abdel12345:

I bought it, but it won't even download right now because the servers are so hammered. Same thing happened to the Modern Combat games, so I won't bother trying again until tomorrow.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] yekasangredevago:
If Compatible! but:

Mod edit: No warez talk

It is unplayable (literally) runs very very slow, but you set the graphics on (very low) and then overclock to 1.6 ghz. :(

Gameloft is hopefully put batteries and optimize well this game (and all other new) and other companies (like EA) are games with better graphics than this and are excellent on Xperia Play ..

PS: I've seen complaining on google play, and also in other forums, a lot of people that has not worked well, or will run very slow on high-end devices (eg Htc One, Nexus 7, Nexus 4, Galaxy S3. . and others)

Too bad those gameloft I get increasingly worse with their little games, so I prefer to play emulators, rather than games android .. :mad:

Sony stop being lazy XPlay 2 needed oh and with scratch resistive glass too :p you bastards the phones body is all scratched up:D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Korinn:
You guys need to relax. As mentioned the game is fully optimized for our device even to the point that an XP controller comes up in the options parameter. Gameloft are most likely just working out the bugs and will release it to us when it's ready. Our devices are old now. We are lucky they are still producing for us!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
It's like all Gameloft games: they release it buggy and laggy and after the first few updates it might get better (or worse) but it will end up good and smooth (hopefully) after a few updates.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
^ same sentiment here TLR... also I'm itching to play Gangstar Vegas but it has the same condition as A8. Apparently these two games can be played on a GB phone but our Play seems to have not been included as compatible.

I contacted GL and all they could tell me is wait for future updates that will make the game playable on more devices.

E-mail reply from GL:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] taalibj01:
this game is cool but no wonder it's laggy too much movement i.e all cars world movement such as poles trees tables and benches plus the smoke effect is not going to co operate good with our devices :(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nuck-TH:
I think they marker subj as uncompatible because of "analog" drift - impossible to performorm suitable and controlable drift without hyroscope or sencitive analog stick(touchpad havent enough accuracy, and it overall unhandy for it). Contacted GL support too. Maybe they will fix it, or release separate version for devices with digital controls.

We can buy Asphalt 8 at Gameloft website from pc, it's really compatible with our PLAY but only the device performance not stand a chance and will get fc without or with gamepad enable. And i not force u to buy it, just opinion.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] abdel12345:
Why buy it? It's free now
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] HEZAiKU:
Yes i know it's free but im still on GB so i unable to download it from playstore, or do you want me to download it from pirate website? At GL website there's no free for A8 so if i buy it's mean im supporting their work. Is not that expensive to buy their game at my country.

Only for some of GL games i like to take the wapshop version whatever is free or not, but if some of the game dont have in original website, i'll take the playstore version.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] abdel12345:
Oh I didn't know they didn't support ginger bread anymore. The games not that great anyway. They added IAP now. Asphalt 7 was better since you only pay a dollar for the full have
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] HEZAiKU:
True, same to me A7 still the best game to play, only the version from wapshop is kinda old. i will thinking to buy from playstore if the original not getting the latest update :p
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BensJammin:
I actually feel that asphalt 6 is the best so far. Couldn't get into 7 at all and I just find 8 to be a bit 'meh....'!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
How do i get this to work on a Neo L? It crashes after the loading screen.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] HEZAiKU:
not support with neo l either.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
Damn. It plays games like NFSMW but not Asphalt 8? Weird. Anyways Im gonna try some stuff after I finish NFS. Switching to a GB rom and installing it may help probably.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] legacygt777:
I second that. the gameplay on 6 is the best compared to 7 and 8.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
I got it running. I dont know how. It got past the loading screen and into the game, but crashes before a race can start. Although the graphics are remarkable and the framerate is fantastic. I guess it just needs more ram. Im testing this on ICS though. Will try it on Gingerbread too and will let you'll know :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BensJammin:
What were the graphic settings on in options? The game is really demanding and on both my jxd and much i5. I only get playable framerates on low settings. Medium averages around 22 fps which is horrible! Havent got my xp to test now
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
I used app quarantine to lock out all apps except the launcher And mc4 and of course my keyboard. Mc4 ran smooth as butter. Try app quarantine and then try asphalt 8. I got it to run when I had my play, on a gingerbread ROM
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
Nope not working again. Same issue. Tried a gingerbread rom too. I wonder how they got it to play on the Xperia Play. It has the same specs as the Neo L.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Irwan Fauzi:
Really? You guys can't play asphalt 8? Well idk but I can play asphalt 8 on my r800i. but its lagging too much and some game tracks cause game to crashed lol. GintoKitKat 3.1.0, lupus gb, 1.6 ghz, smartassv2, sio.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
Yeah when the race starts off it lags like hell. And by lag i mean about 2-3 FPS then suddenly 40fps for a few seconds and then 2-3 fps again :S
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] spike.trickster:
Asphalt 8 is now showing on the Neo L's playstore.

EDIT: Downloaded the game. About 1.6GB. It starts. Gets to the main screen. But as soon as the race start it crashes. I dont get it. How is it compatible to Neo L if it doesnt work.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] HEZAiKU:
I have try to create Swap partition n using Swapper 2.

After that enable Gaming mode using Xbooster.

And then using GLTools on Asphalt 8.

I give 8/10 for this, playable and sometimes have a tiny/big lag.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TH3 ST1G:
OK, I think it is "sort of fixed" but, here goes...

I booted into recovery to do a fresh wipe/install of CleanRom 1.3 (odexed version).

Wife got me side tracked and after wiping dalvik and then system, I accidently rebooted before flashing the ROM.

Phone was stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S4" screen.

Tried booting into Recovery (twrp 2.5.0.2) but, apparently I wasn't holding the Volume Up button long enough and the phone would just reboot to the normal "Samsung Galaxy S4" screen again and hang.

So I went into Download mode, and tried re-rooting the phone using the instructions here, Odin said "PASS" but, after waiting about 10 minutes, the phone still hung at the same screen.

I was then able to successfully boot into recovery, reflashed the Scotts Cleanrom 1.3 odexed (found here) and everything seems to be fine.

Question is, I never was able to flash, using Odin, the stock kernel again but, in the "about phone" menu, it shoes me as being on the 3.4.0-562219 kernel version.

Is this OK?

How would I do a fresh wipe (I'm talking EVERY MO****IN THING) and start again from stock, everything stock except SD card?

Thank you, the weird thing is, I am not bricked at all, once I was able to boot into recovery and reflash the rom mentioned in OP, phone is acting like normal, tried several normal reboots and all is well.

Should I do an unroot flash and start from scratch or is this one of those "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" sort of situations?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chapter81:
Ok, everybody...

So I search A LOT for my problem over Google and everywhere, but all the problems I see goes like: "grey wifi/signal icon and CAN'T connect to Google servers".

My problem is a little bit different: I'm getting the grey icon even though I'm connected to Google servers. I can sync, I access the Play Store, browser works fine, BUT the icon is still greyed out.

Weird thing #2: this happens ONLY with wifi connection. If I turn it off, the connection instantly changes to 3G/4G and the icon goes blue.

So, what may be happening? I tried rebooting the phone and

1) sometimes it works fine

2) sometimes it's working fine and then stops working (normally when I reconnect - wifi -> 3G -> wifi ...)

3) sometimes it's not working at all

If anyone can help me solve this problem, I would mostly appreciate it.

I know this problem happens on routers set to mixed (B, G ,N) and isolated B, G or N modes should fix the problem. My problem occurs regardless of mixed or not mixed. Also, like I mentioned above, it sometimes work, sometimes not. So, can we have a pattern here...?

Thanks!

Sorry, forgot to mention: I'm using a Razr Maxx XT910 running ICS 4.0.4.

I have sent an email to Lg about Key Lime Pie upgrade policy on P880, an operator has answered me that they don't know when Optimus 4X HD will be upgraded to Key Lime Pie and actually the OS debut has been postponed...

According to you, this mean that we could hope that Lg a day will release Key Lime Pie? :fingers-crossed:

I think that if the users of this smartpone, shows interest in the new OS and put pressure on Lg about upgrade there is a good chance to get official Android 5.0

Users already put pressure on LG for JB and it came so "good" that everybody wanted to go back to ICS. Even JB leak was better than official JB. In my opinion it's better not to make any update than making something as "good" as this JB.

Plus, by the time they agree to make new update and manage to make it you will buy new phone because it will be in 2-3 years from now.

Optimus G is really similar to 4X HD in terms of speech, Galaxy SIII that is the parallel Samsung alternative and is outclassed by Galaxy S4 will receive Key Lime... Why you find this so absurd?

Surely LG support isn't that special but you have to remember that Optimus 2X has received official ICS (android 4.0.4) from the original Froyo(2.0).
