This isn't surprising. I recently had a HORRIBLE experience with AT&T U-Verse (yes I know, different department but same company). They sold me "fiber" Internet which turned out to be DSL and talked me into switching from 60MBPS Charter cable. Long story short, one of the many lies I was told is that I could cancel within the first month without paying any service or installation charges.

....so I cancelled in July only a couple weeks after starting service. I was told by a rep that I would receive a bill only because it's issued before the adjustments are issued and that the account will be zeroed out. The following month I called back when I got another bill. And I've called every month since (several times a month) and received the same story from every rep I've talked to. Each rep says they've zeroed the account but they can't e-mail or fax out any confirmation. I've even been told this by managers. Some of the reps are too lazy for this lie and they'll pretend I've called the wrong department and transfer me to a dead extension, which disconnects the call.

Yesterday I received a collection notice for this. That's going to ding my 809 credit score! AT&T is a shady company! As a long time Verizon Wireless customer I can say that I've never received this kind of service from any tier of their support. I'd highly recommend anyone having issues with AT&T to make the switch. What company can't send external communications? I've had Verizon reps send me e-mails, call me back, or even send official texts while on a call. AT&T is a garbage company and I pity any soul trying to get them to do anything other than bill you.

I'm a U-verse installer, so I can probably shine a bit of light on what happened here (though you were put through the ringer).

The internet we have is either FTTP (fiber to the premises) or FTTN (fiber to the node). For people that can get FTTP it's the best option, for people that can't get FTTP, they run fiber optic to a DSLAM (DSL area multiplexer) that then travels the "last mile" on copper via VDSL2+ (very-high-bitrate DSL). The FTTN service is by far the most common in the St. Louis area, and while not COMPLETELY fiber, a good portion (most) of it is.

If you're close enough to your signal source on FTTN you can get up to 75Mb down / 8Mb up speeds right now on FTTN... It's not the 300/100 fiber is pushing, but it's still a better alternative than cable, being a dedicated circuit.

/end-off-topic
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
The installer told me himself it was DSL. He said they run fiber to a hub and telephone wire to my house. The proprietary modem/router they forced me to rent had a DSL port that the wire plugged into. I was only a couple thousand feet from the hub but the highest Internet speed they could offer me was 18 MBPS. If I would have signed up for their TV service it would have boosted someone in the mid 20's with a portion of it devoted entirely to TV (18 for Internet).
[X Style (Pure) General] JaredC01:
VDSL IS DSL (emphasis on the is)... It's just a very high bitrate DSL. The "hub" you're referring to is the DSLAM I mentioned above.

A couple thousand feet is the cutoff for the high-speed setups... Ideally you should be within 1500ft. You would have been on a 25Mb profile (which means you would have had a maximum of 25Mb coming into the home for TV, internet, and telephone). If you did get TV service on that, your 18Mb internet would be cut into to the tune of 6Mb per HD TV stream (meaning if you're watching 2 TVs in HD your internet would be limited to 13Mb as the TVs get priority over internet traffic [25Mb-12Mb=13Mb leftover]).

They have within the last year come out with quite a few new technologies that allow fasters speeds though. For the 75Mb internet there's a 90Mb total bandwidth profile, currently limited to about 1700ft.

Also, the TV taking internet bandwidth is one of the main reasons for buying out DirecTV... No TV over the lines, more bandwidth for internet. Plus, in order for U-verse to do 4k content, you would literally be limited to 1 TV stream per household in most cases.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
Yea, none of this was discussed when I signed up. Or the fact that there's a 250GB monthly maximum data limit. The lady tried to tell me that they rate it at 18 MBPS minimum but it would register up to 4 times faster (72 MBPS). I didn't believe her and clearly asked the same question multiple times to which she clearly responded yes, 18-72 MBPS. Call me a fool for believing her but that was my only reason for leaving cable rated at 60 MBPS that runs anywhere from 15-55 MBPS. AT&T tacks on a plethora of fees every month whereas Charter's fees are bundled in the price (paying $40 a month right now.... not $52.XX). I could go on but we're getting pretty far off subject.

I just really, really don't like anything about AT&T or how they conduct business.
[X Style (Pure) General] innoman:
It's widely and well known that AT&T is not enforcing the 250GB cap, currently. They actually haven't been for quite some time--there isn't even any sort of meter anymore (at least, not on my account) to even know how much you are using. I've most certainly gone over 250GB--I probably do most months--and likely even gone over 500GB several times.

I'm also not a fan of how AT&T does business and I'm annoyed with the fact that I am stuck with them in my condo community for broadband. Though you certainly should not have believed them when they said up to 72Mbps for an 18Mbps plan. You get the service you register for, and sometimes slightly over. Mine is 24Mbps and I think I get closer to 30Mbps (down, I get around 5 up). No company ever advertises their lowest speed as the speed you are paying for--not when they could easily advertise their top speed and get a lot more attention.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
Agreed. Like I said, I'm a sucker for believing her. She also promised a gift card that I never received. She would have offered free intercourse if she thought that would have gotten me to sign. I couldn't see her on the other end of the phone but I'd bet she lied herself blue in the face.
[X Style (Pure) General] JaredC01:
Unfortunately it's a matter of poor sales tactics in your case... The whole reason I started working for U-verse in the first place was because I was impressed by the service (not necessarily the customer service). It's a good product so long as you know what you're paying for.

The 18Mb speed usually runs around 21 dn / 2 up, the 24Mb is usually around 29/4.5, the 45Mb is usually around 50/5, and the 75Mb I've had hit 83/8 pretty consistently.

Agreed. I'm on at&t. I have a compatible sim and I'm on the right apn, but my phone always drops to 3g for calls.

I actually haven't tried to fix it, though. Where I live it seems like lte is overloaded. I get better data speeds quite often by dropping to 3g intentionally.
[X Style (Pure) General] JOSE89178:
Wondering the same
[X Style (Pure) General] Superguy:
Interesting that if they deem international roaming and calling an incompatible feature for VoLTE.

I mean as long as I'm on their network, why can't it just work? I don't expect it when I'm out of the country (and using a local SIM anyway), but come on ...
[X Style (Pure) General] Silarn:
Just FYI, even the claim that volte is only for at&t phones is just bs. As long as it's a phone they decide to support, volte will work. Case in point, I bought my wife an iPhone out of network. Because this is a phone at&t supports, despite it not being a carrier locked version, she does have volte access.

They are just upset because they didn't get our money on their phone. I'm still paying for a service through them that I'm not getting. Something doesn't seem right with this.
[X Style (Pure) General] kafox:
Hey Everoyne- You should all post on the thread below and keep complaining and requesting this from AT&T. We are still paying customers and deserve the same level of service as those who bought their phone from AT&T.

They need to get their heads out of their butts and listen to their customers.

I knew AT&T was just being a nasty carrier. If you can switch carriers, do so. If not, start complaining to government agencies like the FCC and FTC. It's ridiculous that they're allowed to shaft customers in this way.

This will affect all future technologies too, like Wifi Calling. I know for a fact that AT&T will disallow Wifi Calling on non-AT&T devices too, just like VoLTE/HD Voice.

For several days it seems, (at least since I first started trying sometime last week), I've been unable to access jira.omnirom.org. Need to report a bug I'm seeing, if it hasn't been reported already, where my AOSP keyboard crashes when swiping on 5.1.1 on my nexus 6. Of course, I don't want to report it if it has already been reported.

But I can't access jira. Isanybody else also have this problem accessing jira?

Thanks!
[Omni Q&A] xc-racer99:
1) I can't access jira either (page just never loads, no error given)

2) Yes, the keyboard bug is present on all devices. It requires some gesture libs from gApps to function properly. You can install the Google Keyboard from the Play Store which has functional swiping. There was a bug report for CM11 which has a potential workaround. You can view that at https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-3027
[Omni Q&A] b8842dc0:
OK. Well at least I know I'm not the only one. I also posted about my troubles with jira.omnirom.org today on the omnirom IRC channel. I was told that it would be reported. So, hopefully they will figure something out.

Thanks for this info. Hmm, I've got the pico version of GApps from opengapps.org. (Also got this crash with the nano package from the same location.) Perhaps I need one of the even bigger packages. However, I think I'll just follow your suggestion of installing the google keyboard from the play store, rather than install a larger gapps package.

Thanks again!

So I opened download mode and I installed the stock rom for my country (Croatia), but the phone was again just rebboting, so I installed CWM but I couldn't open it. I tryied to do the same thing with a different version of the stock rom, but it ended up the same, so I even tryied with a Serbian version but it was still just rebooting. Please help me, I can't figure out how to fix my phone.

Hi,

You have to wipe /data partition from CWM when switching to a new rom. This prevents you from having bootloops.

How should I get into CWM, when i flash it using Odin, I cant open it.
[XDA Assist] Primokorn:
1. Powered off the phone.

2. Press & hold Volume up + Volume down + Home then power on the phone.

3. Wait a few seconds until recovery mode appears

4. Release all buttons.

Let's get started ,today the culprit is Broadcom

Bcm2157

SoC . Tried to find detailed hardwer informations ,but I only managed to find that this bad boy it is a dual core 500mhz armv6. No infos about gpu or memory interface. So I looked deeper but i found nothing. Then i found about BCM21553 , armv6 with a supposed VideoCore IV Gpu. Could be possible bcm2157 to have the same GPU? If yes , how easy would be to port the android gpu drivers from 21553 source code to 2157?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tele_jas:
I'm on my 2nd 6P and just noticed a bad rattle when I tap anywhere on it?? The rattle appears to be coming from the upper right, but sounds like it may be all the way across the back of the phone.

I seen, and responded to, another thread that suspects the camera as the culprit??? I don't recall my 1st 6P being this bad.....So I spoke to Google and they are sending me my 3rd 6P.

I guess the main reason for this thread is: Everything else is perfect on my phone, except the BAD rattle..... Has anyone returned their phone for the rattle and gotten another one that rattles just as bad? I guess I'll find out for myself next week, but I was just curious what the masses say?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subhani:
It shouldn't do this to the point you feel it is a defect of sorts.

*Disclaimer* I am not responsible to anything that happens to your device(s)

Fire Mobile Boot Helper

Fire Mobile Boot Helper allows you to boot custom boot.imgs using another Android device. I assume most XDArs have their android device on them at all times. No more worrying about not being near a PC when you want to reboot or power of your Fire tablet. Right now this is in VERY EARLY stages. I just wanted to share with you what I have come up with so far. Expect to see this all evolved into scripts and even a front end application on your android device. I am using this to gauge interest of a 2 device "safe strap". Would you guys like a one click application that automates this (allows you to just connect a usb cable, click and select a rom let, let it do its magic?)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7o-XLIXfsZ8

Prerequisites

1) A second rooted android device.

2) Terminal Emulator on second device

3) FireBootHelper_current_version.zip

4) OTG adapter and a USB cable

Install Fire Boot Helper on second device

1) Extract FireBootHelper2.zip

2) Run FireMobileBootHelperInstall.bat

3) Binaries and the beginning of the back end are now installed

How to boot custom images

1) Copy your device boot images to wherever you want on your second device

2) Connect your OTG adapter to your second device.

3) Connect your USB cable to the adapter.

4) Boot your Fire into Fastboot using power and volume up. (Or open terminal, su, adb reboot bootloader)

5) Now that your Fire is in Fastboot go back to your second device and open up terminal emulator.

6) Type the following commands

su

fastboot devices (Is your device there, if yes continue)

fastboot boot "/sdcard/location/boot.img"

7) You're now booted using your custom boot img!

If you'd like to see continued development of this let me know! Feel free to donate to support future development.

I ran the BAT on my Droid RAZR, which has external powered OTG capabilities successfully, but when I type in anything fastboot, it displays "sh: fastboot not found". Any sugestions?

EDIT: I forgot to turn on root permissions for ADB in Developer Options.

---------- Post added at 07:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 AM ----------

Now, on my RAZR, it recognizes the Fire in Fastboot mode, but whenever I try to boot up the img, it gets stuck on < waiting for device >

Do you think it is device specific?
[Fire General] Harry44:
No shouldn't be device specific. Should work cross devices. The binaries were built for arm so it should work for you no issue.

Here are some tips:

-Make sure your RAZR is he host OTG device. Meaning the OTG adapter is plugged into it. Then the USB cable into the Fire. I did that with out realizing it and it didn't work.

-Make sure you're su.

-Reboot the fire into fastboot again.

These are all things I had experienced. If fastboot is up everything is installed correctly and executable. So you shouldn't have issues.

Let know if your issue persists.
[Fire General] Vlasp:
The earliest I will be able to test it again is in 7 hours so I will inform you then.
[Fire General] Vlasp:
So what I did was I shut down my Fire, unplugged it, went to my phone and started terminal emulator and became root, and then I booted to fastboot on my Fire, plugged it in, did fastboot devices and the Fire came up, and lastly I did fastboot boot TWRPFire.img, with TWRPFire.img being on the root of my device's memory. It is stuck on < waiting for device >

I tried on another fastboot command, same problem.
[Fire General] Harry44:
Very odd, I have been able to try this on several devices and it hasn't had an issue. I'll recompile the latest binaries for arm and will post back.

Edit, Is this a powered OTG Y adapter?
[Fire General] Vlasp:
Yep, it is a homemade Y adapter made of 2 USB Extenders, I cut off one of the female ends and cut off the data lines on the extra male end, so that it is a regular extension cable, but with another power wire. I connect the OTG cable to the Male end with the data lines still intact, and I plug in the Fire to the female end.
[Fire General] Harry44:
That may be it. Mine refuses to work with my Y adapter thats why I asked. Just a thought though.
