thanks can't wait to hear
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MR.MEMORYLANE:
I tried to buy the Mega at the at&t store but they wouldn't sell it to me cause I need a to walk out with a contract. Screw that...

Sent from my SGH-T889
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kwed73:
seems weird. were you going to pay full price? shouldn't matter if you are a customer or not. have you tried online?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MR.MEMORYLANE:
Yeah I was going to pay full price it was stupid I couldn't buy it. I think maybe cause I told them that I wanted to buy it but for them to unlock it for me. I think I'll just go to another store and get it unlocked somewhere else. ..

Sent from my SGH-T889
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kwed73:
that's exactly what I was going to do. I wonder if you told them it was a gift? I don't know, but it seems like there has to be a way to get it through AT&T.

I tried on their website and it said the same thing about signing up for an account. I guess I will get it when it pops up on Amazon. I wonder if AT&T will unlock it even if we aren't customers.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] xManMythLegend:
So am I correct in my understanding that the only version that has Tmo bands (4g and lte) is the AT&T version?

All the ones on amazon are a great price 450$ but are international versions.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] curgervending:
That's correct. The international versions will get you HSPA+ but not LTE on T-Mobile. The AT&T version is the only one that has the compatible T-Mobile LTE frequency bands.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Tailwalker:
I have the new ATT Mega. I purchased it to use on T-Mobile. I am having problems with the APN (I guess?).

Anybody have any tips on using the Mega on T-Mobile?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] curgervending:
Is the phone unlocked? If not, you will not be able to use it on T-Mobile's network. If it is unlocked, try "fast.t-mobile.com" for the APN (leave out the quotation marks).

If it is unlocked how did you get it unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Tailwalker:
Yes, I am unlocked. I used an internet unlocking service. The phone automatically sets itself up with the epc APN. I looked up the "fast" APN and it didn't connect. I hard reset the phone and it reset to epc.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MR.MEMORYLANE:
What unlocked company did you go through cause I had no luck finding one for the AT&T model...

Sent from my SGH-T889
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] natienn:
I used ebay just search unlock and the model number, 7 bucks. Waiting for the code, 24hr turn around.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] curgervending:
Since T-Mobile actually encourages people to bring their unlocked phones onto their network, they should gladly help you with setting up the APN for your LTE device.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MR.MEMORYLANE:
Oh yeah I forgot about that. Sweeeet I can't wait now.. I think I'll just walk in to At&t and act like I'm buying the Mega as a gift for someone...

Sent from my SGH-T889
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kwed73:
it's on amazonwireless for $550. A little steep. Hopefully it will drop to below $500 when Thanksgiving rolls around. And hopefully, it will work fine on T-mobile's LTE network
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] darkmuck:
I don't think you will be able to get 3G though as I think T-Mobile uses both 1700MHz (which the AT&T mega doesn't have) and 2100MHz
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] droidnext:
It depend on where you live. If you in refarmed area, T-Mobile use 1900 band for 3g and 1700 for LTE just like AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] darkmuck:
you're right about the refarming. I wish I lived in a refarmed area, I'd be buying the AT&T mega if i did

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] bob60626:
What kind of battery life are you guys getting on a good T-Mobile signal? I'm sick of my original Notes' battery life's but this being just slightly smaller than a 7" tablet with a much smaller battery gives me pause. I'm pretty much stuck between a used Mega, a used Note 2, and a voice enabled 7" tablet. A rugged, preferably waterproof case for one of the above would probably make up my mind.

Thx I'm still not getting anything. And it was set to ** fast.t-mobile.com already. ..I really want to keep this phone but without root more importantly not Internet is just a wifi unit can anyone help me please. Thanks in advance :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] pa49:
Put the APN in like this-

Fast.t-mobile.com

Name it whatever you want and input nothing else.

Remember to save the settings from the settings menu.

If you don't see the 4GLTE icon with the signal pulse from the little antennae at the top right then you are not in an LTE area.

If that happens then try

internet2.voicestream.com

if that gives hsdpa then no LTE is confirmed.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Tailwalker:
You are absolutely right. They are great to work with. Turned out that my problem was that LTE hadn't quite made it to where I was testing it. DUH!

Anyway, I went down to the T-Mobile store and we tested it on LTE using either APN. Both worked just fine with LTE and the download speeds were comparable. Around 15mps.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] MR.MEMORYLANE:
Wow niiiiiiice. ...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Just got squared away. I'm on LTE now. This is a niiiiiiiiiice phone!

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kwed73:
so it looks like you have to sign up for some service to buy it through ATT. As soon as you get the phone, you cancel the service you signed up for. Since you paid full price you are month to month and the phone it yours.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Techngro:
If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay, including tax, for the AT&T version? I assume you bought it off contract? You can PM me if you don't want to post the info here.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kwed73:
did you have to sign up for service? online I have to sign up and then cancel. I am trying some stores to see if a manager will just sell outright.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] jdubb709:
I have the mega unlocked and running on on tmobile perpaid $70 a month. I get lte service here in Cleveland, Ohio. Its a good phone no lag minus the big specs everybody talks about.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] rekamyenom:
I have a Box Full of NEW AT&T i527 Mega's. I need to Find a way to Enable the T-Mobile HSPA+ AWS Bands on this device like this.

They only work on 4G in refarmed areas. In refarmed areas, full 4G, in un-refarmed areas, edge. If we can enable the T-Mobile HSPA + AWS Mands, they will work in all areas T-Mobile has coverage.

Any Help?

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 PM ----------

Which Mega do you have? The AT&T i527? And do you get 4G all the time when you travel outside of refarmed areas or does it drop to edge?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sablesurfer:
I found a whole lot of threads saying that USB drivers to the PC was a known issue, but found nothing about an actual fix. I swear I could connect this phone and it just read it like a F drive. Never had to mess with the MPT thing. My last HTC just showed up as a drive on my computer. I was having a lot of memory issues on my PC and had to change a bunch of stuff.

Now the Note will not recognize, then I install samsung's drivers and I can see folder names but they are all unknown format. I have installed and uninstalled drivers a least four or five times.

I really really need to back up data from my phone to my PC. I use the note for taking notes when away from home. Also need to get all my pics off the phone.

Can this issue be resolved?

(No, I will not use a third party to move apps around. Dropbox and Kies are out because I will NOT give the NSA (or anyone) more chances to track my data because I have never used cloud or shared services.)

Hi guys,

I think it's very important to share app on social media in order to attract more attention and gain fast growth.

Has anyone used any SDK to realize this function? can you recommend me some good SDK to use?

Thanks!!
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] bassie1995:
What are you trying to do? It seems like you're making it harder than it has to be.

Check my Share Intent guide in my signature. I would just use those to share a certain bit of text promoting your app, at which point the user can select what app/platform to share to.

So a while back on a different device I went from running the touchwiz Rom to cm and the sd0 popped up and I ended up with duplicate SD folders.

My question is if I go from say MOAR to Cm including the wipe and everything will anything weird happen with folder locations?

Sent from my glitter pony
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
The only issue I had going from TW to CM based, was I forgot to backup internal to computer, lost everything on internal. After I flashed many other CM based ROMS after this, I never had a problem again, but SD0 will stay there regardless of which ROM you run.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mainstang:
Thank you that was exactly what I needed to know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Your welcomed, to me its best to leave SD0 there, along with others so you can flash TW and CM based Roms at any time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Yes all 4.2 roms or later will create the 0 folder and move everything from root directory to 0 folder. This is not a bug or issue this is how Google designed it to work for multiuser.

Hi. I used to be able to get my female Ivona text to speech voice speaking my google satnav directions, but not anymore for some reason. How do I get Ivona to connect with the satnav? I think I remember Ivona still speaking my satnav when changing to Jellybean but it's decided to switch to the default male voice. She reads out my calendar appointments so I know the voice actually works. Also, with Gingerbread, the Ivona voice used to randomly swap with a default voice for some bizarre reason, so is Ivona not intended as compatible with google satnav?

[HTC One VX] Ragnarson:
I would like to go s-off but first I see that I need to change my CID.

My phone is rooted stock with the official jellybean update that ATT/HTC released a month or so ago.

I used the method found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2203225 to root and backup.

Here is what I get when I use the ADB instructions for CID change:

orm-tools>adb shell
shell@android:/ $ su
su
shell@android:/ # echo -ne "22222222" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20
ev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20 <
8+0 records in
8+0 records out
8 bytes transferred in 0.007 secs (1142 bytes/sec)

(bootloader) cid: CWS__001
OKAY [ 0.011s]
finished. total time: 0.013s

There is something going on here that seems not according to program (or am I reading the cid output wrong?). Either I am missing a step or perhaps the jellybean update changed something.

Reading the cid thread it seems to hint that this method needs the Totem ROM installed but when I go to the tutorial for that I see where this procedure is best accomplished with s-off. I would like to try this ROM (and other things) but s-off seems a really handy setting to have for many things.

Thanks folks
[HTC One VX] Ragnarson:
cedlopt good

Still not sure if this worked for me. I also noticed that from the bootloader screen at the top it reads "tampered" (rooted), and "unlocked" right below it. Is "unlocked" notice an indication that my CID efforts were successful?

Thanks again for the help.
[HTC One VX] kalel420:
if you are on JB then use Moonshine not facepalm and no need to unlock CID just be on JMZ Stock rooted JB just disable friewall before running moonshine
[HTC One VX] Ragnarson:
Thanks kaleI will try this in a few days and let you know the result. Just started my work week so it will be a few days.

Thanks again.
[HTC One VX] Ragnarson:
Ok, I've had some time and searched around for JMZ's stock rooted JB and found a few. Which one works best with the VX? The stock totem odex or is there a better one? I am also seeing where I need to use JMZ firmware as well for this to work,

I really wanted to go s-off before trying any ROM's as from what I read it is easier to load them that way, but it looks as though I need to load this ROM first to get the s-off happening. So I am working up my courage to do this on the week-end. Any thoughts or advice anybody might have will be greatly appreciated between now and then. This phone is my daily driver, thus the reason for all my research and caution before I run headlong into it (my first instinct,,,lol).

Thank you
[HTC One VX] kalel420:
Do the firmware update first you will have to relock the bootloader first then fastboot flash the ruu zip you will have to run the flash cms twice then when the cmd prompt says finshed type reboot then unlock bootloader , fastboot flash recovery and then install the JB Rom of your choice via sd card also extract the boot img from the Rom first ,boot into recovery do factory reset wipe install Rom reboot back to bootloader and fastboot flash boot img reboot device then you can do moonshine s off
[HTC One VX] Ragnarson:
Thank you again kalel for your time and consideration. It is very nice of you. I will get to this sometime this week-end. Is the totem ROM a good one to use? Is there one that you like?

I am trying that one now it's smooth and running well so far . Pm me if you need help I have only had this phone a week but I will try and help with what I know
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] s1nn0n:
I thought id create a thread to talk about our possiblities with WM2k5 with the blue angel.

We know Microsoft are holding a version for the blue angel, from various scources, but they are simply being too tight to let us have it!

When do you reckon we will get the leaked version? Im just getting impatient :-)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ejdmoo:
I'd bet they are holding out for one reason:

Exchange 2003 SP2.

Exchange SP2 hasn't been released yet, and this is the component that enables the wonderful "push email"--amongst other things. I'd bet Cingular doesn't want to offer this upgrade to their customers until they can offer the entire "package" to them. Remeber, most people who have these phones also are in a corporate enviroment, usually with an exchange server.

My guess, based on things I've heard about Exchange and WM5, is that we will see a huge amount of new devices around the beginning of September, along with Exchange 2003 SP2.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] joey jojo:
what is "push email " ?

i never heard of it before.

TBH, i dont think wm5 will be available before i upgrade to a universal anyway in dec, so i dont see point in hoping for it now.
