[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] RobSPVM2000:
Ok after much surfing I located the correct software to unhide and unlock the Extended Memory and it works just great. However now that I have it unlocked following the instructions on the WM05 upgrade info, it says to increase the Storage size to 60MB. I thought this would be done by moving the slider in the Memory Viewer, however it just springs right back to 43MB after 2 secconds. Please can some one tell me what I am doing wrong ????.

Also I have a seperate question. Can anyone tell me at what point in this upgrade procedure is the "Point of No Return" reached. IE at what point will my WM2003 cease to work correctly. Because as of now I only wish to take things up to that point, untill I have done some further investigating.

It seems as though the Orange service provider has a secret pasword for GPRS which has to be re-entered when WM05 is installed. Orange at this time are not being very forthcoming with the password. They just tell me that the phone could be broken and I should return it for repair. DUH..... IDIOT PHONE COMPANY, what a suprise !!.

Hi, I'm a guy from Hong Kong who is currently studying in England, but I lose my precious Xperia S few weeks ago (very sad).

I'm considering to get a new Xperia Z1 soon, but I dont think I'll buy it in England becoz phones are quite expensive here.

I'm thinking about ask my parents to purchase a phone in Hong Kong then deliver it to me (Since my father's friend in HK will travel to England in December, maybe he can bring it to me)

Does it cost tax since the phone is completely new??

Is it required to open the box or do something to prove the phone is not taken here for business purpose??

thankyou :)
[General Questions and Answers] Fantassy123:
Yes you need to pay the Tax of the phone, everything that is send from a another country cost money.

No you don't need to open the box or prove anything since its only 1 phone.

[HTC Rezound] jdmst71:
Recently my wife upgraded her phone and I took over her old rezound to replace my own since her 4g switching was always better. Both are s-off and have 2.28 hboot with newest radios. Having 2 rebounds I figured I may set both up and test toms and switch back and forth. Problem is my original rezound doesn't get any 4g service now that I have played around with it. It's my original sim card I am switching back and forth and it works fine in my wife's phone.

I even ran a stock run and tested for 4g and still no go. New Rom then...and still no 4g. Is the phone broken or am I missing something here? This phone used to have 4g with this same sim card since it was my original phone and my sim.

A couple months ago I did replace the screen on this currently no 4g phone due to cracks. It worked great until I recently started switching the sim back and forth testing roms.

Thanks for any insight, John
[HTC Rezound] Uzephi:
If I remember right, you have to remove the radios to gain access to the LCD and digitizer assembly, if you didn't seat them right, that may be your problem. Over time the radio "plug" "fell" out of it's seat.

Or if the backing isn't on all the way, it would cause signal issues also. Try with her back plate on your phone.
[HTC Rezound] jdmst71:
Thanks for the help. I did try her backing but it didn't help. I didn't realize there were radio plugs in there that might haven't loosened. I have some new screen adhesive tape I would like to put on anyways so I will attempt surgery again and look for loose ends.
[HTC Rezound] Uzephi:
Okay, I was thinking about another phone screen replacement I did a few months back and not the Rezound. The radio chip is part of the motherboard and has prongs that connect to the antenna on the backing plate. Maybe they are not connecting correctly.

When you get your phone apart to reapply the adhesive use some "QD electric cleaner" to clean the contacts. Don't worry, if you use that specific product, it will not damage the phone. It is designed to be sprayed on all electronic devices. The QD part means it has a chemical in it to "Quick Dry". Imagine it as a better form of rubbing alcohol.

Just be sure the battery is removed, it will still cause damage if there is current running through the phone. I used this cleaner directly on my old LG Spectrum's LCD during screen replacement (damn fingerprint, lol) and it worked great.
[HTC Rezound] jdmst71:
I will try that and check the prongs. There were no loose connectors so I assumed it was broken.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amirdrno:
Hello everyone,

I have Nexus One with Jellybeans evervolv installed. I'm using Mount2SD as well. I removed the SD card, installed another one for a short test, turned on the device, turned it off, reinstalled the old SD, turned on again and crazy stuff started. Some of the information is lost. Apps are still there but there is something changed in the way the system is working! Desktop (or whatever is called!) has changed, Apps that start when the device boots up are not starting anymore, the Browser is not working...

Whatever has happened, is there any chance to restore the device to its previous state, before removing SD card?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphinxcs898:
This is most likely because of the SD Card swap. Since all data is stored in the EXT4 partition, the removal caused the links to break when the new card was inserted. I haven't used by N1 in awhile, but I vaguely remember Mount2SD having an option to check the links.

Check /data/property - There should be a file named: m2sd.run_sdext_fschk. Set the value inside to 1 ( enabled ) . Reboot your phone. This will trigger a FS check and hopefully fix any issues. ( Have a backup taken before you attempt this)

I got lucky today at BB. I asked if they had the view flip cover and the guy took me to it and pointed saying, oh its on sale for $29.99. I quickly said I'll take it. As I was paying they realized it was a mistake and actually $59.99 but they gave me the lower price. As I was leaving they were pulling the sale price label off.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
Of course Best Buy now only has a 15 day price protection if an item goes on sale. I paid $299 as a new vzw customer on 10/10. I guess its the price you pay to get the device on launch day:mad:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Daemontrain:
I bought my note 3 today from my local Best Buy. They price matched Newegg on their new line price of $229.99...plot twist: it wasn't a new line :cool:

It was pretty cool of them to honor their quoted price, Michael. Sounds like you've got a good store to deal with!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dogblood:
What was the best buy sale price? I see 299... bought last week I could still price match
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] MichaelMcC:
According to the Web page it's $299.. They offered to price match my N3 at $229 but I have a business account they can't access. See if they will honor that $229 Newegg price. Who knows..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Daemontrain:
If it was a new line the price would be $199, I think it is a two day sale though. I got lucky because they didn't look closely at Newegg's upgrade price. It's definitely worth a shot to go back and try to save money!

Edit: Best Buy's sale is over. If you deal with a good store, they will price match though!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Harleydroid:
Got mine at Best Buy but I had to go to a second location. First manager wouldn't price match anyone that wasn't a brick and mortar store. Whatever I got the second store to match Amazon $279.00 upgrade price.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jsdecker10:
Yea, their price-matching policy is apparently up to each particular store manager. One store may not cooperate with you and WON'T price match one of their stated online competitors, but driving down the road to a different Best Buy store you may find their store manager WILL gladly price-match an online store for you. They don't price-match just ANY online store though. Their policy states that it MUST BE A STORE LISTED ON THEIR WEBSITE.

See here ----> "Best Buy Low Price Guarantee"

This is just a screenshot from their "Best Buy Low Price Guarantee" page with the specific online retailers highlighted..

See this ----> My particular experience with Best Buy and their policies regarding price-matching
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Daemontrain:
I went in expecting a fight to price match Newegg. Then when it came time to pay, they didn't even check Newegg's site/price. They just matched the $229.99 I mentioned!

Experiences may vary, but it's certainly worth trying to price match with them.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jsdecker10:
Yep, it's just really up to the store manager of each particular store as to whether or not they will price match. Technically, according to their stated policy on their website, they're not supposed to price-match contract phones anyway, period. Buuuutttttttt, as in life in general, sometimes people(the store manager in this case) tend to "bend" the rules a little bit in order to make a sale and gain/keep a loyal customer. That's been my experience so far.. the Best Buy here in my town will price-match, but at the time, it wasn't in stock...where the Best Buy 30 mins away generally sticks to their policy stated on their website, but they supposedly bent the rules "just that one time" for me because the store in my town was going to honor the price-match. If I hadn't mentioned the fact that a Best Buy just down the road WAS going to match the price for me, the store I was currently at probably wouldn't have been as flexible and easily could have just turned me away. It's just luck of the draw I guess. Either they will or they won't... I guess it just depends on how bad that manager wants to make a sale and gain/keep a loyal customer!! :good: ;)

Here's a question for ya...

--IF someone does this (returns their phone within the 15-day no-hassle return period), should we return our current Note 3 back to "factory form" and un-root the phone? ....or does it not really matter when returning a phone to Best Buy? I can see how it would matter if we returned it to Verizon, but Best Buy is another story altogether...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Chillout2010:
Just sharing the way I decided was best for me to order this phone. I have two lines that are unlimited. I want those to stay that way. So I started a new line for $9.99 and ordered the note 3 for $299. I'm gonna activate the note 3 on one of my unlimited lines and put a dumb phone on the new line for a family member that doesn't need data. Here's a bit of info given to me by a customer care rep. If I were to cancel the new line before two years is up then I'd owe $350 which decreases by $10 per month that's its active. However once I activate the dumb phone on the line I'd only owe $175 to cancel it. So in reality I could buy a brand new note 3 for under $500 directly from Verizon. This is all hypothetical as I just order the phone on Saturday and haven't received.
