[LG G Flex] sweets55:
Sprint is taking years upgrading it's network even with Sotfbanks $. T-Mobile upgraded the network in a year. I really don't see prices going down if the merger happens. If anything they would go up. I'm just shocked Hesse still has a job. I do want to see Sprint turn things around though.
[LG G Flex] yellowman82:
Well you see that's where you don't know the difference the reason they're taking longer is the direction they went by also changing the whole equipment base etc at each site which are going to pay off in the long run tmobile isn't doing that they just upgrading their speed and such that's why they are finishing way quicker which is going to hurt them later on in the future when they really realize that it would have to replace almost all the equipment in that base site which will lead to problems like customer calling and complaining about the issue they are having with their service and such basically its going to be a deja vu all over again.

Dude take off your Sprint blinders. lol I was with Sprint for 14 years and had so many phones I've lost track. lol My point is I know what's going on in the wireless industry. Sprint is taking years to upgrade the network because they keep making bad decisions. Clearwire was a bust. WiMAX was a bust. LightSquared deal was a bust too – granted, that one wasn't really Sprint’s fault. Oh and the big Nextel mistake. Sprints history shows an inability to pick a winner. The only customers calling to complain are Sprints. I feel bad for Sprint customers when Hesse says "just wait for the network of your dreams". lmao They have been waiting for years. Sprint should be giving them a credit since some can't even watch a youtube video. I was one a year ago and Sprint said all 4 of my phones were defective. lol They offered me a one time $5 credit. I laughed then hung up the phone and went to T-Mobile. Then Sprint comes out with Framily. lol I think that's so stupid. I don't want to have recruit strangers and then worry about them paying the bill on time so my bill doesn't change.

T-Mobile has expanded Wideband LTE into 16 total markets, giving all T-Mobile LTE devices a speed boost with capable peak network download speeds up to nearly 150 Mbps. In January T-Mobile bought a swath of unused spectrum from Verizon Wireless for $3.3 billion that will help expand its coverage to more regions outside of the metropolitan areas.

I really hope the merger doesn't happen because T-Mobile is hot and Sprint will just cool them off. lol Hopefully T-Mobile can get another 3 billion for the failed deal like what happened with AT&T. No one can predict the future as far as you saying T-Mobile will go through what Sprint is going through now. Good thing is I'm not in a contract. Hopefully Sprint can turn things around and fix the bad image they have now. No one can deny, 2013 was T-Mobile’s year.

Report: T-Mobile best, Sprint worst carrier in KC

[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
Seems like I read somewhere that as of Jan 1st 2014 T-Mobile opened up 75,000 new towers in North America, supporting 4g LTE. I had Verizon for years then went to AT&T for about 6 months and now on T-Mobile. Verizon did have the best coverage of 4g lte , at&t was OK but I always had to fight them about BS on my bill and overages. I had a GS4 on AT&T during the 4.2 to 4.3 update, I was rooted with unlocked boot loader I couldn't take the OTA but that didn't stop them from sending the 592mb update 17 times one month and 22 times another month. Forcing me to have overages. I had to call and fight my way out of them both times. And if I didn't know as much as I do about android and our systems I couldn't have convinced the customer service MANAGER that that was what it was. Then after having issues with the network cust. Service told me they couldn't support or help me with my issue until I took the update. They said "Our tech support is trained to handle issues with 4.3" so I asked "what happened to the crew that was trained on 4.2, did you fire all of them?",

Long story short I left and got ETF paid by T-Mobile and got unlimited data again. I average 40-45 mBs download speeds and have had the best customer service experience with tmo.

And I love being able to use thus much data :
[LG G Flex] wase4711:
thats ALOT of Porno viewing, bro..:cyclops:

Agree with everything you said; Verizon is great if you travel for a living, but I dont do that anymore, so I only care what works in Chicago land; ATT was fine after they updated their network here a couple of years ago, but, their cust svc/tech support was lame at best, and after a brief try with Sprint, and their "Alleged" great new network, we decided our last hope was T-Mobile, and we love everything about them, for us, in Chicago land..

Great Customer service when we need them, great low pricing, great service in our area, and all issues are taken care of immediately, without a question or argument...We couldnt be happier with our cellular choices right now, and hope it stays this way for a long time..

We are moving to the Dallas area in a year or 2, so I hope their coverage is as good down there as it is up here..
[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
I even bricked my first rooted g flex and took it to the T-Mobile store and for $5 shipping charge they sent me a brand new one not refurbished but new. The first one was only 3 weeks old.

The CEO and Head of Marketing are determined to make T-Mobile a monopoly and out to show other carriers it can be done better, faster, cheaper, and unlimited. Any company, mobile carrier or not, that does not take cues or adapt this mentality of business and customer care is run by morons.

Hi Guys,

I just had my storage card corrupted for some reasons i dont know. Filenames suddenly turned garbage and filesize are senseless. but before i trace the cause of the problem, I'd like to recover my lost files first. Could you guys suggest what's the best data recovery tool for storage cards in our PPC? Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hvip4:
Hi,

My SGS GT-I9000, running cm-11-20140504-SNAPSHOT-M6-galaxysmtd ran out of battery over night (thats already happend many times before :) ), but this time it can boot up only into CWM (v6.0.4.8).

I am running this ROM since the release date and i have ran out of the battery many times in this period of time, so i don't think it is a problem of new ROM, kernel, etc.

Next thing is that I cannot access sdcard0, it doesn't let me install zip or mount sdcard0.

Little details: the phone gets into CWM even if i try to charge it, without pressing any button. For that few moments before it go into CWM it doesn't show the battery status animation.

Edit: factory reset do nothing

Edit: odin didn't work

Thanks for any help.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] black_assassin:
Hi,

my Nexus was'nt booting at all, so I connected it to my Notebook, turned it on, but it only started in APX mode. After pushing buttons for a while I saw the battery loading logo und pressed power and volume down. The Nexus 7 didn't boot into bootloader mode but in recovery mode, were only Clockworkmod Recovery 6.0.x.x and the Clockworkmod Recovery logo is shown. After a few seconds it reboots and the process starts again.

Anything I could do against it?
[Micromax A116] Rishabh-The Developer:
Micromax sucks !!

When will you make an update for our Canvas devices.

Its already more than a year passed since ypur last 4.2.1 update for our devices.

:P :P

Micromax launched a new phone in Rs.6499/- only(Indian Price)

Which is working on 4.4.2 with 1.2ghz dual core processor and 512 MB Ram.

Howw??
[Micromax A116] #buzz:
Something about: MMX

Micromax is well known for "not" giving software updates for the devices and also the after sales service sucks!

Its surprising to see you waiting for an official update from Micromax which they are never gonna give!

Instead, you can start exploring the development works and try it on your phone!

I have recently bought a new device running on Android 4.2.2 and the MM Tracker apk which I previously used does not work.

Is there a fix to make MM Tracker work on Android 4.2.2?

what i'm do if my phones become slow down, i'm just backup all the data+app and factory reset it.

btw if you want to get 360 security root access you must get rooted

Alright, thank you Arch9. What do you use to backup your phone?

Will factory resetting get rid of the Trojan?

Hi guys,

I got play store working following the instructions for HDXposed on the fire hdx tablet here:

[Fire TV General] nhumber:
confirmed working for me, i just followed the instructions in the Second Link posted above only, play store is functioning normally with paid apps showing and installing properly.
[Fire TV General] meningitiscerebrospinalis:
IT WORKS!

thanks!!! it works like a charm
[Fire TV General] princedarian22:
Just thought I'd chime in here and confirm also.. Good find
[Fire TV General] jljaries42@gmail.com:
Have any of you attempted to install play store apps before?

These instructions did not work for me. Maybe due to previous install attempts.

Even when I clear data and uninstall the apps then re-install, it still has my account name there and I get 'NO CONNECTION - RETRY"

May have to Reset box again.
[Fire TV General] nhumber:
i had previously installed the store with no luck prior to today. i just installed the apks from the second link above after installing xposed, restarting, and enabling the HDXposed module. The store started right up.
[Fire TV General] {ParanoiA}:
[MENTION=2281502]jljaries42[/MENTION] if you haven't tried already, used titanium backup to uninstall the existing versions then try this method

[MENTION=5838320]nhumber[/MENTION] did you already have the first step xposed installed or you skipped it altogether and it's working for you?
[Fire TV General] mastafunk:
Followed instructions to a T.. not a newb here but did not work for me.. perhaps you had allready done something else before doing that? When i launch the play store it never opens.. (well opened for a brief second then goes back to launcher)
[Fire TV General] kwiksi1ver:
Worked for me no problem! Even grabbed a few of my emulators from the play store. Thanks.
[Fire TV General] jljaries42@gmail.com:
Working now

Used Titanium to get rid of old google apps/data

Re-installed google apps.

Most important - enable Xposed module - CHECK THE BOX

Reboot gave me a scare - it displayed the FireTV update screen - Installing new software. But no update occurred.

Even then it had 'NO Connection'

Cleared play store data - Then it worked
[Fire TV General] wolfchimneyrock:
I had had Google play store, framework and services etc... Installed before and it had said no connection. When trying to run play store. Before following the instructions above I had uninstalled all of the Google apps through the amazon settings-apps menu except the one that doesn't show (play services?). That one I installed over the old one using adb install -r package name.apk. and it worked. Have you also enabled 3rd party sources with sqlite editing of the settings.db?
[Fire TV General] princedarian22:
I already had everything installed from my previous attempts I just installed the exposed modules and cleared data on the play store

How is everyone getting around everything saying it isn't compatible?
[Fire TV General] puppinoo:
Hi, I'm trying to make this work. I installed everything. Installation seems fine. I launch xposed framework. It sees HDXPosed modele BUT using the FTV remote if I click on it to activate I receive a "This module doesnt provide a user Interface" and the module remains inacttive.

If I try to launch Google Play store is appears for a moment then shuts down. I think it depends by the fact the module is not active.

Since I dont have a keyborad right now, is there a way to activate it manually?

Thanks.

Pino.
[Fire TV General] mastafunk:
I had to use a mouse to click the box to activate the module.. however i am still where you are :(
[Fire TV General] wolfchimneyrock:
Hold down play and select to reboot the firetv after activating the module.
[Fire TV General] puppinoo:
Thanks,

I did the same but still no luck.

Let's hope in some fix/advice.

Pino.

Ok,

Considering I already had rebooted but I reinstalled using adb install -r all the gapps, rebooted and now it seems to work.

Thank youw and thanks everybody.
[Fire TV General] alwaysbless:
This works great! Finally this device is starting to come along! I wasnt able to install the module without a keyboard and then i had to power cycle manually from there to get the changes to take effect.

UPDATE: Play store is missing certain apps like Youtube, poweramp full etc =/.. Maybe build.prop edit can resolve
[Fire TV General] Hrodriguez77:
Does the device go to sleep if it is running xbmc as a launcher?
[Fire TV General] mastafunk:
If you follow the procedure on the xbmc wiki it does in fact go to sleep. It is the method i use.

Also adb after rebooting and trying a few different things... i adb install -r all the apk's again and that seemed to do it.

Not sure why it didnt work the first time.
[Fire TV General] Shinyhead:
Sorry but what does the -r parameter do for adb install?

There are a ton of apps that show up as "incompatible" with my AFTV which of course is nonsense seeing as many I've side loaded. I tried the Xposed Play Store module and messed about with my DPI setting but it didn't help.

btw, you can still access the amazon launcher by accessing the photos icon if you need to force quit an app or something.

im getting no connection on google play store after installing all the google files...
[Fire TV General] deanemj:
Did you load Xposed, install the framework then reboot, and then install the HDXposed module and reboot?
[Fire TV General] meadtj:
HDXposed is for the kindle fire isn't it? i thought we were only supposed to install the firetv module.

edit: probably where i messed up, i guess hdxposed module is for google play store and the firetv mod is for the controller message and alternate launcher.
[Fire TV General] deanemj:
Nope! It was originally made for the HDX but it works the same on Fire TV. Install the HDXposed module and reboot and then check the Play Store app. :)
[Fire TV General] Esso1001:
I can comfirm., playstore does work
[Fire TV General] peekeesh:
I noticed this too. Did you try editing the build.prop?
[Fire TV General] Esso1001:
If i attach a hard drive to the usb slot will i be able to use it as a local storage instead of using the internal storage of the firetv.. Starting to fill up.. Anybody have luck with this. I already mounted a thumb-drive but when i download an app it doesn't download to the thumb-drive
[Fire TV General] deanemj:
Nope. I'll poke around it tomorrow, though.
[Fire TV General] ariesting:
Install everything by following the instruction. Run Google Play and the screen just flash and return to Fire TV home. Can someone tell me what could be done wrong? Thanks.
[Fire TV General] Shinyhead:
I had the same issue but I just reinstall all 4 apks using the adb install -r command.
[Fire TV General] ariesting:
Thanks, reinstall apks using adb fix the problem. However, a lot of apps show not compatible.
[Fire TV General] meadtj:
anyone having problems make sure you enable both modules for xposed. But has anyone figured out a way to install more apps than what is showing with the google play store, most of the ones I would install aren't compatible so it won't let me install them.
[Fire TV General] z31fanatic:
Here to confirm that the Play store works for me too.
[Fire TV General] edgardo_0691:
i did the second link and work fine. Thanks
[Fire TV General] nhumber:
this is sort of fixed by using the app Market Helper, you set the program to spoof the nexus 7 tablet, and while i still am getting app not compatible on the ftv.. if i visit the play store from my PC it does in fact think the ftv is a nexus 7 and i can install any apps without issue.

EDIT, it must just take a few minutes to update on googles end, play store fully open and working with the above fix and the APP market helper located here..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2146216

nexus 7 is working good for me.
[Fire TV General] meadtj:
worked perfect thanks but does not work after reboot says the app. I restarted google play services and play store before running it.
[Fire TV General] alwaysbless:
Working! Wonder how these changes can be bad perm as it looks like its not touching the build.prop in order to make things work
[Fire TV General] epanzner:
I can't seem to get past the "incompatible" issue even with Market Helper. I am able to register my FTV as a Nexus 7, and the update shows on my dashboard. However, when I try to download or search for apps, I get that they are incompatible.
[Fire TV General] {ParanoiA}:
Does anyone know if a build.prop edit survives a reboot? I know edits to the default.prop do not.
[Fire TV General] alwaysbless:
yea changes will be saved that's why its risky to mess with if you do not make the correct changes since we have no recovery

[Fire TV General] mms2k7:
Quick question--Has anyone been having trouble enabling the HDXPosed module using their amazon remote??? I can't get that little checkbox to come up. When I hit the select button the module it says "This module does not provide a user interface."

I'm not sure if anyone else received this message? Did the amazon remote work for the rest of you when installing the module?

As of now I have google play sideloaded without connection (pending module installation).

Thanks! So glad FTV is rooted :laugh:
[Fire TV General] mms2k7:
I figured..haha sadly I don't have a USB mouse, will have to borrow from a friend. To bad theres no bluetooth or wireless mouse support at this time :/ Thanks for your help though :)

[Fire TV General] cyberma007:
Guys, I was wondering if this works with latest firmware, I tired to reinstall the 4 apps multiple times and apps install fine, but when i click on install in the playstore, nothing will happen, I have installed hdxposed module as well by the way

Thanks
[Fire TV General] {ParanoiA}:
Did you install the play store previously? If so, use titanium backup to uninstall those play apps, reboot, and try again. Just an idea
[Fire TV General] Domunus:
Yes it works with the latest update. I originally could not get it to work as it always said no connection. After some searching around i saw that fire tablet users doing this had to add gmail to activate the terms acknowledgment. After installing all the playstore files, i install gmail next and now its working. Could be coincidence, but it's working.

Unfortunately, until someone can fix the compatibility issue it's a pain to find apps/games that will install. So for me, it's still easier to side load, especially with the FTV side app installer here on XDA. One good thing about installing playstore is you can sideload your paid games and they will work (well they'll start, whether or not it's compatible with firetv is another thing).
[Fire TV General] pbcal:
I also getting No Connection in Play store. I will try to install gmail and try again.
[Fire TV General] WaxRain:
thanks

thanks
[Fire TV General] moeduss:
Does anybody know where I can find a link for the gmail apk.

Thanks in advance.
[Fire TV General] dieterl:
You can get it directly from the Play Store: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm

or use the apk downloader here: apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
[Fire TV General] dieterl:
Has anyone been successful at removing the app store filtering for non compatible apps? I've been trying to get Watch Disney Junior (updated version came out a couple of days ago) and it doesn't show since google thinks it is incompatible. The evozi apk downloader also doesn't seem to be updating (keeps serving the old version, and if you try to force it to update it fails), so I can't grab it that way.
[Fire TV General] dieterl:
Nice, nope, I tried an xpose module which claimed to do the same, but this actually worked! Thanks man!

thanks..

edit: got it to work by uninstalling and removing the spaces in the app name.
[Fire TV General] Frustratez:
i cant check a box? it just says no user interface when i click a module
[Fire TV General] Esso1001:
Why is it that certain apps dont appear on the google play store but appear on the one online. On my pc..
[Fire TV General] Spykez0129:
Device compatibility. Apps that aren't "compatible" won't show up in the play store. Sometimes they'll still work and just haven't been updated so side loading it could probably work.

On another note

Did anyone else have issues with apps crashing after getting the play store to work? Bunch of stuff I had installed would keep crashing, had to uninstall them and re-install. Plex and Chrome namely.
