[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
I am buying a Verizon Samsung Fascinate, but I don't think it has a SIM card slot... is there any way to get it to work with my existing telus account? (I currently have a milestone). I know this may seem impossible, but ever since the milestone got gingerbread before motorola even released froyo, I'm a believer of anything...
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Completely different...gsm phones can't work on cdma networks and vice versa. No amount of programming is going to get it to work. They're both different technologies.
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
Is Verizon's network not cdma?
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Verizon is cdma. Gsm uses sim cards.
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
My cdma telus milestone takes a sim card, but I have found a better answer on another site.

Thanks for the try though.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Um, last I checked, Telus uses GSM, not CDMA. I also don't think there is such as a thing as a CDMA Milestone. Well, there is, but it's better known as the original Droid. If you have a Milestone that uses a SIM card, it's a GSM phone. In any case, Verizon's Fascinate will not work on Telus.

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
Umm, last I checked from Telus' website, they offer both cdma and GSM. Meaning that you may be correct about my milestone being GSM. Furthermore, I guess my question would be invalid either way. Thanks
[Fascinate General] daoom:
Telus has CDMA and HSPA networks. The Telus Fascinate is HSPA and uses SIM cards. While they share a name, the model number for the Telus Fascinate is T959D, making it more akin to the t-Mobile Vibrant.

Not only that but the physical dimensions of the phones are not even the same so they can't even really share accessories.
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Yeah...that's why I was checking. You said verizon fascinate...but nope. There is a telus thread in here.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Hmm, they maintain both CDMA and HSPA+ networks? Bizaare. Well, I stand corrected on that, but I still don't know if the Verizon Fascinate will work on Telus or not. I would imagine the effort necessary would like trying to get a Fascinate on Sprint's network, which is next to impossible unless you've got an inside contact who is willing to activate it for you. There would most likely be some radio hacking involved too.

[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
It is a verizon fascinate that I want to use on the telus network.
[Fascinate General] lowtech80:
Why do you specifically want to use a verizon samsung fascinate? It should be possible because when I go to canada, I roam on telus and bell. But you can't just pop in a sim since there is no sim in the verizon fascinate. So you would have to find someone who is both willing and able to activate it for you. Personally if I was on telus, i'd opt for the international galaxy s.

Blackhole 4.2 on EB01 Froyo.
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
I know it's weird lol But I'm getting this phone for like 10$, thats the only reason I'm willing to go through the hassle, otherwise I would just stick with my Milestone.
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
I've actually cancelled the order. Turns out the phone was a stolen phone, and to re-activate it, I would have to change the ESN number, which is possible, but I don't want a stolen phone.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Sorry to hear thar. If it's too good to be true, it usually is. ;)

Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Shoot i'd buy it as a test phone. Still available?
[Fascinate General] shadow664:
Well what do you mean stolen, like out of a store or from a person? if its the latter i would buy it for 10$ and try and find the original owners

hopefully they would give your some money for your troubles :D
[Fascinate General] LuigiC6:
lol Search it on ebay. The seller says that you can't activate it with verizon cause it's stolen. Personally I don't want anything to do with it lol
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LawAce:
Hi all, first time posting but been a long time occasional lurker since my HTC Hero, though I am currently using an iPhone 4.

I've been having the temptations to change phone recently, and I've always liked the look of the Nexus S and the DHD.

I know newer models have been announced at WMC however they still seem like the nicest Android handsets available at the moment, for the price. I've seen brand new DHD on eBay go for less than £300 which seems crazy! If I got the DHD I would root it and put either Revolution or LeeDroid on it....

So I ask, if you were in the position to buy a new phone tomorrow, would it be the DHD or the Nexus S?

Thanks for any input
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza_84:
Definately the desire hd, it is a really cool phone, would really like to get one myself. Had it for a few days recently but had to give it back, it really is a great phone
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Setsuna666:
It really depend on what you are looking for.

In my case, I wanted a phone with a 4.3 inch screen and a good 8 MP camera. The desire hd seem to be the best choice for me, since it's been released recently in Quebec,Canada.

While the Nexus S isn't available here in Canada, it is a tempting device. The hardware is similar to the Samsung Galaxy S series, it has new feature like NFC and it's a Google product. So you'll be sure to always have the newest updates.

Either way, I think you'll have a good time.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErOR22:
In terms of specs/performance/looks/awesomeness the Desire HD kicks ass!!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexluckett:
Wrong place to ask, as Desire HD owners - we're gonna be biased. So naturally; get the Desire HD :)!

Really great phone, perfect battery life (don't listen to people who say it's crap). The premium feel of the phone really does show!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkonland:
I just sold my galaxy s phone about a week ago and purchased the desire hd. I know the galaxy s(vibrant) its not exactly the same as nexus s, its like 90% the same, other than front cam, flash, nfc, and 2.3, its the same phone. I also played with the nexus s so I have a pretty good idea on these phones.

Id say if you are a power user or a media hungry guy, get the desire hd. Its very good device. For me it beats nexus s, in every possible way other than better screen, which for me the 4.3" screen size more than makes up for that. Also nexus s is stuck with 16gb non upgradable memory and has 512mb ram vs 768 in desire hd. My only concern with the desire hd was the battery but with some of the roms i tried, im getting wayyyyy better better. Also if you use setcpu and tweak a bit, you will forget about the battery problem. BTW there already 2.3 roms(cynogenmod) out and im sure it will be a little delay on the updates but not that big of a deal since you get them fairly quick thanks to these wonderful devs

these phones tend to run hot period, my wife's gets warm and its stock/non rooted. Nautre of the beast and especially if you have a case on it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
40 deg C is not overheating. It can be caused if you have screen on for long periods, tether, or use applications that use a high amount of cpu or gpu.

At 50 deg C or higher you should worry.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If the screen is constantly on, running wired/wireless tether, 4G for extended periods of time, the phone can get hot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I wouldn't necessarily call that overheating. It depends on how you use your phone. When I play games or tether, ill hit 47 C. The phonw has overheating protection, around 49 or 50 C I believe. I find that different kernels affect phones temp too.

[HTC Inspire 4G] meatrocket:
When I got the Inspire, they hadn't put in the IMEI and I got the "H+" with a check mark. They fixed that and the check was replaced by the up/down arrows. I noticed that the APN had virtually no settings:

APN - Phone

MMS Protocol - wap 2.0

MCC - 310

MNC - 410

everything else is "not set"

When I rooted and installed AFR001 and later AFR002, the APN was hard-coded to:

APN: wap.cingular

Proxy: wireless.cingular.com

Port: 80

Username:WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM

Password:CINGULAR1

Server: not set

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32

MMS Port: 8080

MCC:310

MNC:410

APN Type: *

I no longer get an "H+", but simply an "H". I have read conflicting reports that the "4G" connection won't work with the APN settings I have as they're 3G only. So the question is, how do we get the "4G" APN on the phone? If I make a new APN and set the settings manually to what appeared in the stock ROM, I get no data connection whatsoever.
[HTC Inspire 4G] aper3caper:
Don't quote me here, but I'm pretty sure the afr001 and afr002 ROMs don't have an H+ icon since they are the European Desire HD ROMs. So you may be getting 4G HSPA+, but it doesn't have an icon for it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] calin75:
I believe the best thing to do now is to just wait for the stock ROM to be rooted. It looks like the Desire HD ROMs are not 4G compatible.
[HTC Inspire 4G] meatrocket:
Not compatible, really!? I have no other issues on AFR002 than that. I thought it would be simple :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
AFR002 is based on the Telus ROM, not the European ROM, however it may not have the H+ icon either, but I'm sure that it can support HDSPA/HUSPA just fine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] meatrocket:
I was hoping to find out final clarification on the APN question as well. If I use the 3G APN, will I need a new APN to get 4G speeds. If so, what are the settings for the 4G APN?
[HTC Inspire 4G] elrooster:
I get the same speed results with both of them, wap. cingular and phone settings. The only difference is when I switched to phone I got a message saying "conection failed" but I was able to use data. I'm using AFR001
[HTC Inspire 4G] meatrocket:
Ok, thanks for the info. I'm guessing the APN issue is pure speculation @ this point anyway until AT&T's backhaul is complete.
[HTC Inspire 4G] calin75:
It's unclear. After my imei was updated, I checked the APNs and there are two with lock icons. Maybe if we could check with someone that has real H+ service who could check download speeds with and without the 3G APN.
[HTC Inspire 4G] JaysFreaky:
+1 I've been playing with APNs all day trying to figure it out. Network info shows HSDPA.
[HTC Inspire 4G] alwayslearning:
to clean up the APN issue: The APNs with the lock are from ATT with only one or two settings off to control tethering. When you use the custom APN settings you get tethering even on the stock ROM without a special tethering plan.

When I talked to AT&T they told me there is no special Sim card or APN setting for 4G. 4G is a hardware issue, but AT&T has only released 4G speeds in SOME areas, LA and Orange County do not have it yet. The whole network will be up and running by year end. The H+ is just an icon that AT&T put in the ROM, they don't even have the H icon, if you are on 3g or 4g it will still say H+ because this is there way of marking something they don't have yet. Mush like the EVO when it first was released Verizon didn't even have 4g running anywhere but they had commercials all over the place for a product they could not deliver.
