You shouldn't incur roaming charges. I never have. Whenever I've been out of T-Mobile's coverage I find myself on ATT networks. Although your data speeds will be pokey (at least in my experience), it's still usable.
[myTouch 4G General] osugsxr:
really tempted to go out tonight and make the switch. Working this weekend and I know a few of my employees have tmobile service, so I may just test their service out on my phone. Really curious to see how itll work at my house, it says excellent coverage but I prefer to test it. Purchase service and try it out for a day if I dont like it just drop it?

The Measure Of A Good Phone

I got the Vibrant on launch day, rooted it in September when the bugs got on my nerves, sold it to the same person that buys all my phones when I'm done with them 3 weeks ago and bought the MT4G.

For the record, I've only owned 2 phones I've absolutely loved in my life, (and I've been using cell phones since college in 1996) the Motorola PEBL and the HTC G1. (Still have the PEBL to this day and used it recently over the summer) Anyway, as far as I'm concerned the measure of a good phone doesn't just stop at it's functionality. It has to feel good, physically. It has to function to all of it's strengths well, meaning if it has a 1ghz processor it must be fast without much lag, if it has a mp camera the pictures should be sharp, and so on. Above it all has to work. These are all areas that the Vibrant managed to fail in.

The MT4G not only works, but it's the only phone since my G1 that I can honestly say I'm learning something new about it fairly regularly. The only problem, and hopefully it's an isolated issue, I've an occasional spontaneous reboot. I had issues with the spontaneous reboot with the Vibrant, but they only happens whenever the phone would freeze which was multiple times a day.

I'm loving the fact that the battery life is SIGNIFICANTLY better. I'm loving the speed of the phone, I'm loving the data capabilities, I'm loving the email. I'm loving the phone call clarity on the network and the ability to use Wifi even if the clarity is slightly reduced. I'm loving the fact that you can have customized contacts imported. I'm loving the fact that I don't have to spend time converting movies to play on it. I'm loving the fact that I don't HAVE to root the phone to get more out of it. I could go on, but the only thing I miss about the Vibrant is the screen. But believe it or not, that's a small price to pay considering everything else I've gotten.

After owning a BH2 and then a Vibrant, I can safely say that I will never own another Samsung device ever again. It's sad that 7 year old Motorola clamshell phone can best the "latest and greatest" technology in my world.

Normally I buy a new phone every year in accordance with my usage and the current technology, the Vibrant is the 2nd phone I've ever had to cut off in under 6 months simply because it was unusable. So congratulations to those that jumped that ship. I hope that the MT4G continues to make us all happy.

Confidentially, If T-mobile does carry a 4.3" dual core 4G hspda+ HTC phone with 16gb internal memory and 2gb RAM with external SD card to 32gb capacity, running a Honeycomb variant sporting dual cameras the back one with an LED flash and a 7mp camera...... I'll find an instant fault with the MT4G.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victoriousdawson:
I got a mytouch 4g for the simple fact

1)Webcam

2)Wi-fi calling

Unfortunately, I can't use the webcam really as most ppl i know don't videochat much so idk how it really works or if it works

But my wi-fi calling seems horrible. Literally it sucks.

I did a wi-fi call and the quality is even more choppy

then when I am just using the network with 1 bar or no bars showing

It cuts in and out.

Is there anything i can do to fix this?

Also,

I notice my wi-fi signal loses a bar when i hold it at the top left(like i were trying to block the sun out, if i barely have my hand blocking the phone at the top left side i will lose part of wi-fi signal

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slurpkins:
Hello. I'm relatively new to flashing roms (I just recently rooted my phone) and I'm wondering what is the best rom for me. I like sense, but I want to play angry birds. What is a rom that is the least laggy for angry birds?

Also, I see a lot of people who say they use CM6. I assume that is cyanogenmod 6, but I'm unclear whether it is. The one under darchstar's thread? or another one, like aosp's 2.2 or jaybob413's? Which one of those is best (of their stablest release)?

Thank you so much for your time and patience with me
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ULoveAriana:
I like & I'm using cm6.1 stable. I've never tried AOSP but I've heard it's faster than & smoother than cyanogen. You don't have to get cm6.1 from a thread here though, you can just go to cyanogenmod.com & download it with the corresponding gapps if you want. I like cm better because it has a lot more customizable options. There are a lot of great themes for you to try out once you get flashing & roms down :) hope this helps

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heaterz16:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ULoveAriana:
Sorry to say but on AOSP you're out of luck because they don't have those options. You can change clock notification status bar & etc. colors on cyanogenmod though which is actually why I prefer it but to each is own :) Your best bet on AOSP is to find a theme you like & flash it but customizable wise I believe that's as far as you'll get

I just got my book color today and i noticed that it is hard to plug it in to charge, i have to use quite a bit of force to get it in. Upon further inspection i noticed that the male end is bent. Should i return it to best buy for another nook color?

PS. Get your mind out of the gutter. :)

mine used to give me problems but after 3 or 4 plugins it was fine. if it is legitimately bent, you could return it. or just use another cable.

really it just depends how much that bothers you and how much unrooting, returning, and rerooting bothers you

If not doing this it just wont go in with the force im willing to put on it.

Great review!

I also use the 3000mAH battery with the Sprint Clip (from Sprint) and it's a perfect match!

I lol'ed when you said that you had trouble trying to drain the battery.... Last night I tried to drain the battery as well to give it a full cycle charge -

When the 'low battery' signal started flashing, i began to stream Pandora over 3G and downloaded and played a 75mb youtube video over and over and over.... it took over two hours of this intense draining to completely kill the battery from the 'low battery' state.

I dig it,

Matt!

P.S. I suppose the ONLY downside is that I wish the low battery indication only appeared when the battery was actually low, not when the phone tells it - perhaps I need to calibrate....Because after all, if it takes 2 hours of HEAVY usage to drain the battery, then it wasn't really 'low' in the first place, was it? i'll have to research on how to calibrate.

We need to have one person each with these various extended batteries run the EXACT same rom and run the EXACT same test to see which one is king. Or if someone has a battery tester that can do it more scientifically, thats even better.
[Epic 4G Accessories] kelmar13:
No idea... but I can tell you that it lasts longer than the stock battery for me. :)

As mentioned in the original post, to me a battery is a battery and I have no way to test or find out otherwise.

This would be great. Any idea what battery tester would work?

My initial plans were to let stock/extended die while in airplane mode and see how long each took. I use my phone every day though and quickly found out that, for me, this was not a reasonable test.
[Epic 4G Accessories] muyoso:
Apparently you can make your own for like 40 dollars, but its too complicated and I am too lazy to do it. The ones you purchase are ridiculously expensive.

If we could come up with a baseline testing platform to test the batteries, that would be great. Like flash to DI18 stock, install NOTHING and make zero modifications, charge the extended battery to full and then use some program or some standard media file to test the battery life by running it down as quickly as possible while in airplane mode. That would alleviate most variables, but is still a giant PITA.
[Epic 4G Accessories] kelmar13:
Agreed about the PITA part. Like I said though, that was my initial plan until I realized how big of a PITA it was really going to be. :D

Any suggestions?
[G Tablet General] Sprdtyf350:
Long press the item and then drag to the trash can on the side.
[G Tablet General] TeutonicWolf:
For Home Screens then you can only delete icons (or uninstall app)

If you mean the App Drawer rather than the Home Screen(s), then using Launcher Pro, you can try the following:

1) From any "Home Screen", select Menu then Preferences

2) In the Launcher Pro preferences screen, select "General Settings" (first option)

3) Select Hidden Apps

4) Select checkboxes for the App Icons you wish to hide.

Note that this doesn't uninstall / delete the app -- only hide the icon from the drawer.

I use it to hide icons for apps that I never (or very infrequently) start from the drawer.

I've been getting over 40, sometimes over 60% android system use, which I find kind of crazy, considering I have downgraded my PRI from 1.90 to the 1.77, I've updated profile. I've ran 2 different sense roms based on the latest OTA, as well as Cyanogen Mod 6.1.1 final.....I'm running out of clues as to what would be causing this.

I doubt it's an app, as I tried flashing a sense rom and installed a very minimal amount of apps and I am still experiencing this issue.

For the most part I only get really high android system usage if I'm on my phone a lot. For the most part its less than 20%. But it can approach 50 if I'm using my phone a ton.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android 17:
I think it may have to do with the newest OTA, or baseband update, I know that normally, most users can experience about 20% or so system usage with moderate use, but it seems I reach above 50% or so with moderate/a bit heavy use, it just seems like a bit much, and I don't remember having such an issue before.

I know some users mentioned the latest PRI messing with their phones, but I put the older one back on and it doesn't seem to have fixed it.

Edit: Like, for example, I just checked my android system after taking my phone off the charger, and it immediately shows as 70%, though this number will go down a bit, but even with light use, it seems to linger around 40-60% usage.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Get the Spare Parts app (it comes in CyanogenMod) and check the Partial Wake usage in Battery History. If it's showing Android System as using a lot of the partial wake, then continue on:

This was a known bug that was found and solved in CyanogenMod. What's solved it for people still having it is to use a FORMAT_ALL.zip in recovery, which formats and completely wipes the system, data, cache, and kernel (boot) partitions. I used it, and it got rid of my wake-lock.

So to review:

1) Backup via Titanium Backup or something similar.

2) Nandroid backup.

3) Flash FORMAT_ALL.zip

4) Flash ROM (and gapps, if applicable)

5) Boot up, check partial wake usage after a while.

6) If all good, add your accounts, but do not add any apps. Check partial wake after an hour or two.

7) Restore apps in groups (5-10 apps), rebooting then waiting 30 minutes or so between each group, checking on partial-wake usage each time.

EDIT: Here's the FORMAT_ALL.zip
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android 17:
Does this format the SD card as well? I thought i read it did, which would be a hassle. Also, you mentioned doing a nandroid back up, yet then flashing a rom, does this mean I would not want to simply restore my nandroid?

1) It will not format or wipe the SD card.

2) Nandroid backup is always done as a precautionary measure. You do not restore from it afterwards, in this case.
