I just added the Device ID in on the line i want to use on VZW and it is showing "QA-HTC-T1-0P82300-4.0" instead of unknown device!!! movement not transferring data yet.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitman3984:
the fact the VZW system recognizes it is awseome. Has me ready to drop some cash for one now.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossoverdoc:
Any more updates on this? Has anyone gotten one activated? I'm an indirect agent and considering a concession line and I'd like to add a tablet, preferably this one.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitman3984:

5.1.1 is out can someone see if it changes anything with us trying to connect...
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Flashed the factory image, booted up, now it won't recognize ANY SIM I put in. Before it just couldn't connect, now it doesn't even recognize the SIM.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
I'm just going to have them replace my device again. The replacement they sent last time has terrible light bleed and sunken in buttons, which the original didn't have. At this point I think I've given up on Verizon...maybe they'll sell it at some point but this is ridiculous.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:
Un activated sim.. Can't turn on radio.. Clicking on mobile plan can't activate it. I'll try the sim off of tab s 10.5
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Is it showing the notification that no sim is detected? This is after upgrading to 5.1.1?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:
No not getting any notifications
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
I got my RMA already...at least they can do that right. FYI, if you guys got any of the earlier builds with bad light bleed and sunken buttons on the side, you can use this issue with Verizon as an RMA excuse. My circumstances are funny actually...my first device was a good build, very minimal light bleed and the buttons were fine. I only complained about the verizon issue to get it replaced because the screen had gotten scratched by the keyboard folio haha.

They replaced it with an HT4 serial number build, where I could barely even feel the buttons being pushed, and the light bleed was awful. I contacted them again yesterday and made the rep aware of the fact that I knew that newer builds didn't have the physical issues I was reporting, and even though she said "I cannot comment on that", she did say she'd make a note of the button issue just in case. I got an HT5 serial number build, assuming newer than HT4, and the buttons are sticking out very nicely, although the light bleed is still there unfortunately.

Moral of the story, seems like Verizon is doing the blocking for whatever reason, but you guys can use it as an excuse to get an RMA if you have any physical issues you want resolved with your devices.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimus J:
Just my 2 cents

Maybe there is something I'm not seeing, but why not pick up the Wi-Fi only N9? I don't see what the big deal is about having the LTE version, but maybe to pay more money. I picked up my N9 Wi-Fi and tether it all the time without a hiccup. I paid $350 for 16gb on Amazon instead of close to $600 for the LTE. And I don't pay my carrier for an additional device (usually only an additional $10 a month, but over two years that's almost another nexus) . Is there something that I'm missing on the LTE version that the Wi-Fi only doesn't have?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_rooter:
There is nothing special about the lte version except you get lte and WiFi. Makes no sense when most people who use tablets are on WiFi only.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimus J:
Thank you for clearing that up. I really don't see the point to pay almost $500 more (250 initial cost + carrier billing over two years) to get the same thing. If it's an issue of speed and performance, I can attest that with tethering I get excellent performance. Enough to stream full length movies without a glitch.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Here's the thing guys...I'm not looking to debate whether or not I should have purchased WiFi only. I own an LTE, and it should work on Verizon, but it doesn't. I have Verizon through work, and work pays for the service and the tablet, so I'm not going to switch providers either Lol.

Not trying to be a jerk, its a fairly dead thread anyway, but when I see its been bumped to the top I'm hoping someone has an update, not just an opinion on whether or not the LTE version is worth it.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimus J:
Didn't realize the circumstances. Now I understand. In your case it makes sense. All I was saying was how marketing gets people to buy something they really don't need due to lack of knowledge. Good luck with your issue and anyone else who is in this scenario
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
No worries. As someone else had stated elsewhere, it is just convenient to have the tablet connect on its own wherever, whenever. If Verizon weren't such jerks we wouldn't even need to debate haha.

I should have taken the refund the first time they sent me warranty replacement, and just waited to see if it got sorted out, but unfortunately, I didn't, so now I just want to get what I paid for. For now, since LTE won't work anyway, I'm able to screw around with the M preview...not too shabby. If evernote would work I'd have zero complaints for what I need it for.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:
Mines up on craigslist.. Should have taken the refund when google offered it to me. I'm sure the offer is up already.

Does it work on AT&T (meaning if I read everything correctly, does this lack band 17?).
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:
It should work on att I am not sure which bands though
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Just put two different activated SIMs back in to test and nothing. Most of the time the tablet doesn't even recognize the SIM on 5.1.1, which is weird. On that Verizon community post the VZW employee stopped responding after someone told them what they suggested doesn't work haha.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirbywade:
Verizon is problem, not willing, but T-Mobile no issues

I am Verizon long time customer, spent $40k over last 8 years with them on many lines/devices, so called for assurance they would activate the Nexus 9 if I paid $650 for one a few months ago, and they assured me if it is an android device 4GLTE no issues at all, guaranteed. Many hours and many visits later with all the various levels of tech support on Verizon and they never once blamed Google, but instead more than one person confessed until they sell them, likely won't activate them as they don't want to lose ipad LTE sales. I just took it to T-Mobile and for $15 they swapped SIM cards and it works fine now, took all of ten minutes. Month to month 3GB plan $30/mo, as I need/use it for GPS only in my SUV. Typical corporate greed/sales dominate decisions on these issues. Verizon tech quit calling me back every time I patiently and kindly worked with them. We could get the APN, and all the networks, but just couldn't get it to turn radio on.

Check out my conversations with Verizon on their own community post about it, they don't even try to defend the issues...

---------- Post added at 01:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

May be worth noting that Verizon is in middle of switching over their 4GLTE to 4GXLTE, as well as going from CDMA to GSM. This is causing many weak radio signals in our areas the last few months...and just possibly the Nexus 9 issue involved too? Hopefully it will be completed soon, and I live in big city near major airport so should have no radio signal issues otherwise.....
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Thanks Kirby. I've been on that Verizon community thread with you for a bit now. I love how the Verizon customer service person made one comment then just stopped replying to anything.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossoverdoc:
So there still hasn't been ONE single case of a Nexus 9 being activated on Verizon? Hard to believe. Trying to pick put a tablet to add to my employee account and I'd rather not have to explore other options.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirbywade:
Not found or heard of one single Verizon activation...even from Verizon's folks

Unfortunately I haven't run across one claim of Verizon activation, and Verizon stopped trying to work with me after my Nexus 6 and other types of SIM cards got everything working on the 9 but the actual radio signal activation.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:

Got tired of this nonsense...I've filed a complaint with the FCC: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us/requests/464373

Let's see what happens. If you look at the screenshot I attached to the complaint, Google clearly states it should work with Verizon.

Edit: Not actually sure if you can see another person's complaint haha. Here's the screenshot of the Google Play Store:

Do u have to sign up? I'm going to support this. Still have my n9. Currently dealing with tab s
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
To submit the complaint online, you have to sign up, otherwise you can fax in a paper form of the complaint. Another person on a Verizon community post also complained and got the same response I did.

Within 30 days, we should have our answer, or a resolution. Is Verizon blocking, or did Google screw something up, which would entitle us to refunds for false advertising?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Verizon just reached out to me today in response to my FCC complaint. The woman I spoke to was very nice and can tell that I'm a little more of an advanced user, so she didn't try to BS me at all. They are actually overnighting me a SIM which has been activated on that line and want me to test it out and report back to them with results tomorrow. We'll see what happens. They are aware I've used 2 different SIMs in it already so MAYBE just MAYBE they were able to force something in their back end to allow the device to connect. We'll see. I even told them I'd factory reset before popping this SIM in, so it'll be just like new out of the box when it doesn't work haha.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
So the SIM they sent is not working either, but I think they messed something up. The original SIM I had which was activated in another device, showed the phone number of the line in the settings. This SIM they just sent me did not show any data, not even the phone number, which I assume is because it is not able to connect to activate. I was tempted to throw it in my Nexus 6 to see what happens, but decided against it, and the account executive I'm working with wound up saying to hold off on doing that for the time being.

One thing to note - she WAS able to enter my IMEI into the system, and it populates as a Nexus 9. So that is progress...the Verizon rep originally back in December when I bought the device was NOT able to enter the IMEI....it was repeatedly rejected by her system.

Anyway, it is probably being referred to advanced technical support, so I'll just keep posting back with any updates.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokuevo:
Keep us posted. Thank you!!!
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
This may be a stupid question, but where are the radio.img files for the N9 LTE? I want to make sure that all the times I've gone back and forth between versions that I haven't flashed the wrong radio version. I've downloaded all of the factory images and there's no radio.img? Is it contained in the vendor.img?

Edit: Nevermind...figured out its in the vendor.img.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Update - I've got a very helpful Verizon "special ops" type tech working on my situation. The key information that seems to possibly be breaking down some barriers is that the device populated with Verizon APNs, but there's like 14 of them. When he asked me how many there were, he realized that the device is set up as a "global" or international device, which could be causing the connection problems. He is actually teaming with other people and calling me back with a course of action tomorrow.

Weird thing though...I took the SIM they sent me, which my N9 does not even show a phone number for, and put it in my N6. EVERYTHING worked just as it should, but the phone number showed as UNKNOWN in the N6 too. Very, very strange...he couldn't figure that one out. The SIM is still showing as not being activated on his end even when I popped it in my N6 and was surfing the web while on the phone with him.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knghts50:
Saw this when i was installng an app on my phone via the webstie...thought it also means progress. Checked my tablet its not receiving data but does show all the verizon info on it. Figures as this one is leaving the generation to be replaced VZW starts to add it...https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/71433635/Nexus%209.PNG
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss12108:
Do me a favor. Go into the mobile settings and check the APNs. Let me know how many APNs are in there. The guy working with me seems committed to figuring this out, and he has a suspicion that the device is set up for international use rather than US domestic. He is calling HTC with my serial number to figure that out, but I'm wondering if everyone else's device has the same Verizon APNs that mine does.

Hi all!

Just a quick question .. I have added a few albums on a micro sd card and every now and then it seems my Z3 decides to remove them from my micro sd card.

The album folders are still there but the songs inside get removed.

I have a HC Sandisk 64g .. Very good card IMO .. Slightly better than class 10 i believe.

Anyone experience something similar or know why this is happening?

Thanks

it can be the sd-card problem

use it for while in another phone and check if it destroy some files ...

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex31734:
Well today I went full retard and decided to modify the build.prop and change the DPI to 200 from 480. Now whenever I turn on my phone it alternates between two pop ups taking up the whole screen. One of them says "unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped" and the other says "unfortunately, touchwiz home has stopped". I cant do anything on my device apart from changing the volume and pressing "OK" on the messages. I have access to the stock firmware but I dont particularly want to wipe my phones data. I have already tried using adb but cannot as the authorization window wont appear on my phone, meaning that my device remains unauthorized. I was hoping that someone here could provide me with a solution to this problem. Would it be possible to somehow extract the stock build.prob from the stock firmware and flash it onto my device?

Thanks in advance

Hi.

Thanks !
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Radio / Modem firmware is stored in those partitions. You erase them because you flash a possibly newer version included in the firmware image.

Hello, I recently got a S4 that has a small glass crack right below the home button. My Otterbox case doesn't fully cover it up as it is nearer to the home button than the bottom of the phone.

Are there any solutions to this? Are there any attachable front faceplates for the S4 that you just attach to it, without the glass screen?

Thanks!!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mw2fan:
So a while back, something happened to my M8. I don't know what, but all of a sudden, it started acting weird.

Apps were constantly refreshing (so while typing in google search, it'd refresh, lower the keyboard and bring me back to the homescreen), the phone suddenly ignored rotation lock settings (and the launcher could go horizontal) and the call audio didn't work unless you put it on speaker.

After studying the logcats for a while, I realized the phone was constantly going into dock mode, causing the problems. Dock blocking apps did not work, neither did flashing a custom kernel with the magnetic sensor disabled.

I also removed all car/dock related stuff from my rom, tried flashing different firmware and a GPE conversion.

I've come to the conclusion this is a hardware problem, like the usb shorting somewhere.

Is there any way to modify the software on my phone to remove the docking stuff completely?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitakser:

Hi there.

I have the same problem. Any luck with the issue?

fingers crossed, now I'm waiting to see the outcum.

Hi guys,

I've been scouring the net and these forums for about 3 days trying to find the registry hack to change the default location of the 'My Documents' folder to my storage card as the reg key normally used (as per the wiki) under WM5 doesnt exist. I also want to do the same with the default ringtone location, changing it to 'My Ringtones' located in the 'My Documents' folder instead of '/windows/rings'.

Maybe we could use this thread to post known WM6 reg hacks that are different to the method used for WM5 which could be of some use to members, including myself, and hoping I get the answer to the ones I mentioned above,

Feel free to add reg hack queries, and any hacks you know of that are WM6 specific.

Enjoy your day,

Neil.

Found a way to move My Documents ... BUT ...

Found this on:

http://www.inspectmygadget.com/2007/07/17/how-to-hack-your-windows-mobile-registry/

*****************************************************

Change the location of My Documents to the SD Card.

This one is complicated but possible. I had to play around with this one for a while trying and failing with several methods, succeeding with this one. The order in which you do this is essential.

Please ensure that your SD card and My Documents are backed up. It is recommended that you do this on a fresh install of your ROM. This cleared out my “My Documents” folder but I was able to restore it.

1. Reset your device

2. Synchronise your device with your PC

3. Navigate to

“HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory“

4. Change the “Folder” key to “My Documents”

5. Rename your original “My Documents” folder to “My Docs”. This is a crucial step, but it does not matter what you name it.

6. Power off and reset your device.

7. Sync your Device

You should see in “File Explorer that your “My Documents” folder has an SD card icon next to it.

Copy your files back into your My Documents.

*****************************************************

Only problem with doing this on an already set up system is that if you have anything installed to your Storage Card, then all the links become invalid - you can resolve this by using Resco Explorer / Total Commander to reset all of the links.

Haven't tried to install any apps after doing this, would be interested in hearing if it still installs there like normal - decided to reset the name to Storage Card, rather than have to remake 200+ links to all the apps / games that are on there - think I'll wait until I remake the system next time!

:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Bird_FAT:
Update

Worth doing ... but only on a new install

Backed up my system, then had a go at this - spent an hour in front of the telly changing all the links over to the new addresses, etc.

All seems to work, but a load of little bugs started to occur - all related to where certain software is located, and files that have been installed, and where,etc.

No issues related to the system in general, but I think this method would be best used if you are doing a brand new install - don't even install the EXTROM before you do it and you'll have no problems at all, and no more issuses with the build up of crap on your system. Just don't think it's feasible on an existing build, to many hidden links and file misplacements can occur.

Still - if you backup first, it's worth a try!

Bird
