The only thing that matters is the radio that the phone supports, the sd doesn't matter. Go into teting via dial pad(*#*#4636#*#*) and force the network type you want.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bishybob:
Just for the hell of it I called T-Mobile today and activated the new SIM that came with my G2. The one I was using was from two phones ago when I had my Sidekick. But even with that SIM card I was getting exceptional speeds. I've been using it for weeks in my G2.

I also told T-Mobile to make sure my web was provisioned with the newest plan.

I haven't used data much since then, because it was only a few hours ago and I use WIFI at home. But if I notice a big difference I'll post here.

I would say that you probably just have a very busy network in your area. Data speeds depend a lot on how many people are using the network in your area. Or maybe just the towers aren't fully upgraded yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roadrunnerx7:
apprecaite all the help!

my sim card isnt that old, its the same one that came with my g1, which i bought in 2009. i talked to a rep earlier today, he said it might affect the speeds because they made new sim cards this year? idk cause then the rep im talking to now says it has no efffect. i think im just gonna cahnge the sim just cause i want to, if it actually makes any difference ill let you guys know

ok i just changed the sim card, and the speeds did actually improve. aside from that, accoding to the speedtest results, im now actually connecting to hspa+, before all it would say is cell, now it says umts sometimes. overall seems like an improvement

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawless_benji:
What are the spec differences between Google's nexus one and our very own xperia X10's? Only reason I ask, is that according to engadget, Google is gearing up to release android 2.3 (aka gingerbread) over the next few days, yet I think I read somewhere Sony Ericsson saying that due to hard wear limitations, they won't be releasing 2.2?? I know both phones have the same processors, but that's as far as my knowledge goes when comparing the 2 phones... as the title suggests, I'm only curious.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Visspui:
I believe that the Nexus one has 512mb of ram, where we have only 384....But X10 has 1gig rom and they have half of that.

I'm pretty sure in everything else, our specs are all equal or greater than the nexus one

[edit] "Android 2.2 is apparently only going to be available for phones with at least 800MHz CPUs and 256MB of system RAM"

I still don't think we'll get it though
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im_iceman:
Hi - SE have not said that they won't release 2.2.. they just haven't committed to it yet - Check out the SE product Launch blog.. Rikard Skogberg has said in there a few times that the next update is currently being spec'd out and that 2.2 has neither been ruled in or out..

- as for 2.3 Ginge... who knows.. if we don't get it in the next update, suspect we won't get it at all.

i just flashed a radio last night. the flashed finished completely. the phone looked like it was going to restart but never came back on. and wont turn on no matter what i do. wont go into bootloader...wont charge. wont do anything!!!! did i brick my phone? i did have hspl

us htc hd2 with tmobile

the radio was 2.05.50.11

any help would be helpfull
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
in the tmous radio thread, first two posts, plus dozens of other threads it warns that 2.04.50 and 2.05.50 radios have the same effect as ..51.. version radios when flashed to a tmous,,,,,, and that is a bricked phone.

your options are warranty, (don't say you flashed it), or JTAG, which will set you back a hundred plus, or pay htc to fix it, again around hundred and forty.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rupert88:
Hey guys,

i know that consumer products with lcds normally have several different ones that are used. Was just wondering if there was any relation to serial number or manufacture date (i did hear something a while back about amoled screen production problems).

I got my phone June 2010, my brother only recently got his - his though looks like it has a blue tint to the screen.

:confused:

On mine i can have my contrast on 0 and the screen still looks pretty bright and the blacks are good, on his it looks somewhat washed out.

Any thoughts?Have you noticed this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neris:
This is just because the Blue Pixels "burn out" a little over time, so that it will look better after some time of use. This was often discussed in several Forums

[Galaxy Tab General] pgamble:
Hi guys ... I have just got an off contract Tab.

Love it ... but curiously there is no Social Hub installed. I spoke to Samsung support ... they came back after talking to colleagues only to say their one didn't have it either ... apparently some do and some don't ... and initially he said there is no way of getting it if you don't have it. I said that was unacceptable .. and he is supposed to be getting back to me.

I wonder what else is missing.

Cheers

Paul.
[Galaxy Tab General] pgamble:
Sorry guys ... I'm sure this could be UK specific ... but I do need to know if anyone else hasn't got the Social Hub installed on their Tab ...

Please let me know if you have / haven't.

Cheers

Paul.
[Galaxy Tab General] PBL1:
Got mine from PCWorld, it was cheaper than Tesco and TCW and their crappy free class2 16GB mSD and no pushing for simcard contracts or embarrassing credit checks

No Social Hub, No Media Hub either, unless the media hub is the Samsung movies and Samsung Games widgets?

I have the music hub and the readers hub (news and magazines not available yet) plus the daily briefing widget

Also for what I been reading around here the Samsung App store may have different apps depending on you location?

What is Samsung playing at!!
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
You have samsung movies and games widgets?

Dont have Social or Media Hub either, but i do have music hub..

Hopefully we can get the apks from the US model (if that has the missing Samsung apps) and install them. :)

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab General] pgamble:
Can everyone check to see if their software build is different to this please ?

This is insane.

PCW and Tescos both market the social hub in their own adverts. I was in Tesco this morning and their Tab is the same - no Social Hub.

I don't want to wait until next year for a new firmware release to get something that was advertised at time of purchase.

What do we do to get Samsung to resolve this issue ?

I think we need to get more of a representative view from other UK people ... are we all missing it ? Are we missing other apps as well.

In Apps I have :

Alarm Clock, All Share, Browser, Calendar,

Camera, Contacts, Daily Briefing, Digital Frame,

eBook, Email, FT Mobile, Gallery,

Gmail, Google Search, Lattitude, Maps,

Market, Memo, Messaging, Music,

Music Hub, My Files, Navigation, News and Weather,

Nova, Phone, Places, Readers Hub

Samsung Apps, Samgung Games, Samsung Movies, Settings,

Sky+, Talk, Task Manager, ThinkFree Office,

Video, Voice Search, World Clock, YouTube

-->

No Social Hub, No Media Hub (are you sure there is one .. I have Music Hub).

Samsung Games and Samsung Movies aren't really apps or widgets - just short cuts to Samsung Game and Movie purchase websites.

We need to ensure we have a proper breakdown of what is missing and somehow approach Samsung to resolve.

Paul.

[Galaxy Tab General] pgamble:
Update

Just got off a the phone with a far better Samsung chap in the Apps group. He spoke to his tech chappie who explained that Social Hub isn't a standalone app like the Reader and Music Hub. It is basically the integration through the Contacts app which is activated when you go into Accounts and Sync and add Twitter, Facebook and MySpace. This then updates the Feeds and Updates Widget (which is too small in my view).

In the contacts ... go to groups tab ... scroll down to your facebook or twitter account and tap the All contacts below it ... on the right you then see all your contacts for that social network ... then if you tap one of those contacts you get a display focusing on just that network with your contact on the right showing their details and last message. Finally if you then click on their profile you get a facebook viewer or twitter viewer to show you those message. A bit clunky ... but that is the 'Social Hub'

As regards the missing media or video hub ... I think that is the 'Samsung Movies' which is just a website like iTunes you can order movies from ... not the fully integrated offering that Music hub is for music.

So ... perhaps it's just really bad marketing making out it was a separate app.

I'm pretty happy.

Aside from 2.2 on my HD2 which I just play with, this is the first real Android device I've played with.

The market place seems pretty good ... lots of free stuff that is actually worth having.

Kindle reader will never replace my new Kindle ... but is good if synced and I don't have the Kindle.

eWallet Viewer is great if you have eWallet for PC / WM which I do. You can't do updates yet ... but it does sync from the PC.

Real Calc is quite a nice basic scientific calculator - I'd really like something like Omega-One 1-Calc, myPlayer (BBC iPlayer ... mainly for the downloads for later watching), Google Translate, Google Sky Map, Google Streets, Google Earth, Yell.com (if you're in the UK). I'm sure I'll find a lot more :-)

Have fun guys.

Paul.
[Galaxy Tab General] wjharing:
Thanks for clarifying on the social hub, as I had the same issue.

The Samsung.co.uk site also advertises 2 premium games being installed: Nova and Asphalt 5.

On my version from Carphonewarehouse (contract-free), only Nova is installed and other game is missing. I called Samsung, and they advised to swap it around! I did, and new one still is missing the Asphalt game (probably from same batch, with even lower serial number).

Send an email to Samsung past Sunday and still no response. I guess I have to call them tomorrow...
[Galaxy Tab General] 513:
Asphalt isn't preinstalled, you have to download it from Gameloft site.

Hello , i want to ask if i can play psx games on dhd and if its free and if there is any chance of getting paid games/apps for free .

Thank you for answer , im planning to buy this phone , but i want to be sure about some things .
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] sHaHiN786:
You have to first purchase an app called PSX Droid from the market, and you have to get the games yourself, use google, that's all I can say. I'd say the Desire HD plays PSX games better than any other phones so far.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] teihoata:

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] teihoata:
I wasn't talking to you, sorry about that. The other person just started up a new account and asked about where to get paid apps for free. I thought I would state the rules before the thread gets locked by someone explaining where and how to get free apps. Sorry if any offence was taken
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Ethania:
How can I see if you are a MOD or not?

Sometimes there are beta-programs or special adverticeing campains were you get an app for free if you state that you se it on your web-page or signature.

Personally I dont know about any right now!

Do not discuss warez, request them or even inquire on how to get "free" apps.

[Windows Phone 7 General] lavike:
So Xbox Live came out with a family account and I'm thinking of getting WP7 for myself and family members. Any idea as to how this all might work?

Do we all use the same Windows Live ID that is linked to the account?

Can everyone use their gamer tag or just one?

If we get a Zune Pass and it is linked to the same "parent" Windows Live ID as the Xbox, can the family members use Zune as part of the "3 devices per account" allocation of the Zune Pass subscription?

Basically I'm hoping to get my family on Xbox with their own gamer tags and also share Zune.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
http://www.wpcentral.com/how-to-xbox-live-gold-family-pack
[Windows Phone 7 General] lavike:
Thanks for the link but it really didn't answer the question of how or if you can get everyone on their own gamer tag.

Has anyone with an Xbox Live family plan been able to get more than one WP7 device to connect to a different gamer tag within a family plan?

As to the other part of the question, has anyone with a Zune Pass been able to get more than one WP7 to connect as one of their "3 devices per account"?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
your first question is a little strange? so do you want multiple WP devices to connect to 1 gamer tag (i.e. 1 windows live account)?

and the second, can't help you there as i'm in australia and i don't really want to tamper with all my account settings to get to US.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lavike:
Confusing stuff or I'm making it more confusing than it should be.

My question was if someone on the family plan had also connected multiple Windows Phone 7 devices up to individual gamer tags within Xbox Live.

I have 3 gamer tags that I'm going to consolidate under the family plan to save money. I'm also thinking about getting Windows Phone 7 phones because my kids and I have had our phones for 2 years. If I get the phones, I'd like the kids to be able to use their individual gamer tags.

I'm wondering if this is even possible if we are all consolidated on a family plan.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rob_p:
My take on the family offer on xbox live is simply that you get 4 subscriptions for was it about £70 for your family, so you still have 4 IDs, just not paying £40 each. Is that what you're driving at?

This link would seem to confirm that thinking:

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Live/JoinLive/FamilyPackFAQ

Again, assuming this is what you're asking.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lavike:
I guess that could be an answer but I'm trying to figure out if I go to a family plan do I have one Live ID associated with 4 gamer tags or are there 4 Live IDs each associated with its own gamer tag and they are all consolidated for billing purposes.

I'm hoping it is the latter. This would allow each WP7 to each have its own 25GB of storage on the SkyDrive. The former would probably limit us to sharing the 25GB.
[Windows Phone 7 General] rob_p:
You can't have more than one gamertag associated with a live ID, it won't let you, so I'm sure that it will mean 4 live IDs.

First impressions...smooth interface, very quick transitions and animations. I still haven't been able to go through everything yet, but the Netflix player is really cool. I can watch my netflix movies and it doesnt even feel like it's streaming. My CORE player on my HD2 doesnt even play that smooth.

I wanted to start this thread for everyone who has found tips and tricks to using the UI, to let everyone know of any wm 6.5 apps that have been re-written for wm7, and just to share experiences.

So, I've run into something that is scaring the crap out of me lol. If I turn off and on the phone while it is on the charger, the phone won't turn back on, it gives me the screen that the phone needs to be restored...if it isn't on the charger, all is well...anybody else able to reproduce this?

mine just reboots when you switch it off while on charge, but I charge from the mains, so not sure if its something it does from USB

I would tell your carrier about it and see if they can fix / replace it or find a solution.

I had the device replaced, it was faulty, all good with this one, and its much snappier, that one had some issue. All is great now, amazing phone
[HD7 General] YannieBoy:
I had that happen once. But I let the phone die after buying it. So it didn't really have a charger to do anything. I put the phone into bootloader then pulled the battery. Haven't seen it since.
[HD7 General] foaf:
I had similar. Phone had no batt, so put it on charge (in a 3rd party car charger), and restarted. Showed a blank screen. Tried multiple times, removing the battery for over 30 seconds. I really thought it was bricked.

Put it on the official main charger and left it until fully charged and it worked fine. This happened about a week ago and its been fine since. So there could be a bug, but seems ok.
[HD7 General] neo-havic:
I think I figured it out, at least on my phone... I found that if I hold down the camera button, even slightly, while im rebooting the phone it will go into the restore screen. Turns out that the skin I have my phone in slightly depresses the camera button, and was causing this issue over and over again. I wonder if the same thing is happening while you guys are plugging in the phone? Anyone care to try it out?
