gsm band?

does anyone know what gsm band this will be?

I wonder if bestbuy uk will offer any discount promo on the xoom? otherwise I expect the price will be the same as carphonewarehouse.

If the price was closer to £550 I would defiantly be interested.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alienwolf426:
i'm on cm7 rc1 and whenver i go into rom manager to use that to install update zips, i can't seem to make it work. it asks me to download the recovery, so when i press the download button, it starts to download but then just never stops ... i know it stops at the point where its going to flash the recovery but the app never asks for root access and never goes anywhere .. is it just me or are any of you having similar issue?

edit: nevermind got it to work .. i had to go into settings and then clicked on "manual install" or something like that ... i restarted rom manager and hit 'Flash ClockworkMod Recovery' and it was successful this time ... hope that helps someone else who might be running into the same issue

[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
Okay, so here's my story. I am on my third D.Inc at the moment. I just got it in the mail yesterday. The first one I had I put a screen cover on it right away. This phone fell a bunch of times, nothing crazy but just normal use stuff. Then one day it fell literally from a foot above the ground and the volume buttons stopped working after that (I use the vzw silicone case on all 3 dinc's btw).

I brought it to vzw and a new one was sent in the mail to me. My second dinc, i decided to not put a screen protector on because the screen just felt soo smooth. Plus, before i sent in my old one I checked how "scratch-proof" the screens really were and to my surprise I couldn't do any damage to the screen. I know dirt and sand will do worse than a steak knife, but it was nearing winter and i didn't think i'd be at the beach for a while so that was not a worry for me.

I had the second dinc for almost 3 months and the screen still looked great. One day, i was getting out of my car and i forgot my phone was on my lap and it slid out and hit the ground face down. When i picked it up, the screen had a huge spiderweb looking crack. I've dropped this phone much harder and in worst situations so I was quite surprised to see it cracked.

Now my question is, will a screen protector help protect the screen from cracking (I'm not talking about scratches, i mean the glass actually breaking). I'm not sure if I should order a screen cover or just leave my screen naked.

Any ideas?

edit:

With the dinc that was cracked, do you think it was because it was so cold out and possibly fell on a rock on the pavement? or does anyone think that a screen protector could have saved it?
[Droid Incredible General] Rom-Addict:
Gorrila glass is pretty good. I did the lap drop thing too and if not for my case(edges wer above screen).the phone slid for a while screen side down but was fine .that said dropped on carpeted floor and speakers broke.warranty. warranty warranty

Sent from my ADR6300
[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
yeah i feel like it had to have landed on a small rock or something because i've seen phones drop a lot worse.

do u use a screen cover?
[Droid Incredible General] Rom-Addict:
Yea. Gotta ten pack cheap. Just piece of mind prolly. Case is what saved me really. Kept screen above most of the ground while slidn.

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible General] pianoplayer:
I dropped my phone on a sharp corner of a marble statue about 20 seconds after putting a screen protector on :D and no cracked glass. Just a small "dent" in the protector. Oh well, I got 3 for $3 on Amazon.
[Droid Incredible General] bill102938:
It can have a lot to do with how the phone landed. I believe landing flat on the face would be a worst case scenario. Landing on a corner or edge would be less likely to cause a problem.

My camera stopped working (auto-focus is jacked up) after a 3 foot drop onto pavement which landed right on it's back. oh well... live and learn

I now use the HTC silicon case and I feel it's protected better. I've used a screen protector since day 1. I've had other touch screens look like crap after a few weeks of no protector.
[Droid Incredible General] baram:
i haven't used a screen protector since i got the phone back in may or June of 10. dropped it a bunch of times and no damage to the screen just a couple tiny dents in the front bezel. at least once the phone dropped on a hard floor from ear height so about 5.5 feet. been lucky i guess.
[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
yeah i know of a lot of people with dincs that don't use screen protectors and have dropped their phones many times and haven't had any problems..

i guess some people are lucky and some are not
[Droid Incredible General] Pryach:
I finally decided to do away with my screen protector after it started peeling. I'm going naked now and living on the edge. :cool:
[Droid Incredible General] Jes7er:
I think this definitely helps your screen not to crack. I had a protector from Clariview that made it so you couldn't see the screen from the sides, so it was pretty thick. My phone got knocked out of my hand without a case and flew about 10 feet before eating it on the ground. The outer part of the screen wasn't cracked, but the actual display was underneath. I have no doubt the screen protector saved the outer part.
[Droid Incredible General] _chron:
i use the otter case and my dinc has survived a flight of stairs and my driveway
[Droid Incredible General] DustinBooyah:
I doubt it would help, I think the angle has a lot to do with it webbing like someone mentioned earlier. Mine shattered with a screen protector... I still have a screen protector after I fixed it but no case
[Droid Incredible General] drago34:
I have had my Inc since launch and I have dropped from about 3-4 feet about 4 times over that time... no screen protector or case and no cracks just some 1 mark along the outside. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Here you go, I have not tested this rom and Im not really into sense, but I did download all 6 of the posted 7zip files and 7zipped them into a flashable zip. Rapidshare was the only free file share site that would host a file this size (281 MB (295,625,440 bytes)) for free, so unless you have a radipshare account be prepared for a 20 min download...lol

Again i did not test this Rom's zip, I just merged the files into a usable zip, so flash at your own risk, just trying to be helpful.

flash has too many bugs at first

First Flash: Phone booted but was stuck on the HTC LOGO for quite a while, it freak me out because the lockscreen was there but when I pulled it down, took me straight to the HTC Logo, I turn it on and again, lockscreen appeared, unlucked it and took me to the logo screen

Booted phone: Phone started off in Arabic, was hard to nagivatem later asked ne which language and I picked english of course, when I tried to type my emai;, laters came out in arabic

THIS HAS AN ARABIC KEYBOARD\

Update: DATA IS NOT WORKING

other than that, it has HTC Sense with some nice apks, well packed rom, but needs data fixed and english keyboard

[Fascinate General] garywojdan81:
Any rom before SuperClean 2.7.x is pre-edify.
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
That totally didnt answer the OP's question.

Edify is the scripting language for flashable zips used by CWM 3.x. Edify supposedly works with earlier versions of CWM. If you have CWM 3.x you will not be able to use zips with scripts with Amend.
[Fascinate General] neh4pres:
Is amend the previous version zips used?

Sent from my Rocking dj05, themed superdark w/o swype mod, voodoo 5, with custom boot and shutdown.. With premium xda app.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
Yes. Edify scripts are somewhat backwards compatible (most things work, but not all), but amend scripts are not forward compatible.
[Fascinate General] Shadowchasr:
Given your current configuration...probably both will work for you, but the previous ' flavor' is more likely to be compatible than the edify....too many issues still in going to CWM3....save the headache when u look to do other stuff

How can I set it so, in messaging, it shows a picture of myself instead of a grey box? I have myself in the box as a contact, with a picture set, but it hasn't appeared.

I did it on my hd2, but I don't remember how I did it..
[myTouch 4G General] TJBunch1228:
If you have your Facebook info syncing, it should filter from that. If you do not, save your phone number into your contacts and then assign a pic for it. When you send a text, it will pull your pic from your contacts.
[myTouch 4G General] Lint6:
Oh..I should have specified...I"m running CM7 nightly 12. Facebook is synced and, like I said, I have myself as a contact with a picture associated with it and its still not pulling the picture
[myTouch 4G General] TJBunch1228:
Hmm I had that problem with CM7 too. Go into Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings > My phone number.

I think by default that is blank. Put in your number in the same format you have it saved in your contact list as.

If you have already done that, there's nothing else I got for ya. Hopefully someone else knows.
[myTouch 4G General] Lint6:
That did it..thanks
[myTouch 4G General] BlackSHELF:
This has been discussed before so many times :O search=

Just to be clear when you add your phone number save the contact "Me" in Phone and not in Google and add avatar it will stick. For other device like Nexus you have to save # in SIM as "Me" and then apply photo.
[myTouch 4G General] Lint6:
I did search..tried messaging and contact icon and saw nothing related to the issue in the results.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Wicked1ab:
Hello Everyone, I am currently with Tmobile and I have my G2 rooted and I love it. I use the portable hotspot feature quite a bit at work so I'm signed up for tmobiles "unlimited" internet on my phone. However Once I hit 5gb bandwidth for the month I received a text message saying that I had hit the 5gb cap for the month and for the duration of the pay period I would still have internet since I'm signed up for "unlimited" but I would have a reduced speed... Let me tell you right now its very reduced. So my first question is, do you guys have this problem? and my second question is, which service providers don't have this lame cap? My friend is on Sprint currently and he's used 12GB bandwidth so far this month and can still use his 4G speed which would be nice. So I may go with Sprint however I'd like to keep my options open so do you guys know if Verizon or At&T have the cap as well? Also what kind of phones would you guys suggest with the two? Preferably I'd like to fix the problem with Tmobile however I don't see that happening because when I went in the store they said I was already at the most internet /month.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Evofusion:
Currently the only 2 providers that dont have a cap AFAIK are sprint and verizon. ATT used to have one, but was taken away back when the first ipad came out and now they only offer 2gb and charge you 10 dollars a gig over that. Sprint phones arent all that great right now ,probably the best phone on sprint right now IMO, would be the epic 4g. Verizons best phone is the thunderbolt, which ironically isnt for sale yet, but it will this month. they also have the iphone and some other android phones (fairly outdated at this point)

You got to remember that verizon is more expensive than t-mobile. Sprint is fairly expensive too and their 4g phones require an extra 10 dollar fee for bs reasons. If you want the unlimited data youre going to have to pony up the cash.

If i was you i would wait for the dual core phones to come to those carries, the droid bionic for verizon and who knows what for sprint.

Ps. I heard that verizon is throttling the top 5% of its users. I read it in engadget but alas, i dont have that carrier/problem so i havent looked into it.

Hope i helped a little

Edit: forgot to mention that if you want 4g you have to make sure that you are in an area that has the 4g specific for that carrier. Your friend has 4g on sprint so that means youre at least in a wimax (sprint 4g) area.

Verizon has a different 4g (LTE) that might not be in your area at this point in time.

Also sprint has 3 4g phones, t mobile has 3 and verizon has only 1 and it isnt even out yet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] derekthejw:
Nice break down.
[G2 and Desire Z General] scottmog:
personally with the price per month my wife and i are paying for tmobile i would never leave.

best way to do it is to have 5 member family plan... cheapest way at least.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TyrannosaurusFencingChamp:
A T-Mobile tech support rep told me that he was told in a recent meeting that they were going back to the 10 gig cap. He said a date wasn't mentioned...who knows if this is true or not, I'm just sharing what I was told.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Wicked1ab:
That was amazingly helpful and I have a lot to consider now. I do have it pretty nice with Tmobile right now because we have a 5 family member plan and if there is a prospect of 10gig coming out then I will probably wait it out. And if the new phones come out and I still want to change then I will. Thank you so much for your help!
[G2 and Desire Z General] kgold708:
There is a way to defeat the throttle. I've never hit the cap myself so haven't tried it. Five year old data plan with 10gb? Limit. But for root users it involved removing 3 files from the radio? Try searching the dev threads. I do remember that T-mo was the only carrier that this would work with. The throttle takes place on your device.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dynamikd:
I was under the impression that method no longer worked. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kgold708:
Nope, my bad. I'm wrong on this one. Good luck!
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidcues:
Well Tmo finally saw what we were doing in data throttling and it did work realllly well..but all good things come to an end.

I have however managed to "defeat" throttling by....staying under the 5GB. Through wifi surfing. I have wifi at home and at work and those are the two places you find me . Simple.

But its a DAMN SHAME because I never rode wifi before because HDSPA is faster than wifi. Takes me twice as long to download a CM nightie on wifi.

Tmo has got to smarten up. Still they're still my favorite compared to the others.

Hi I was on CM7 nightly and CWM 3.0.0.6. I could use volume down and power button to get bootloader/recovery. flashed IG 1.1.6, now pressing volume down and power doesn't bring up bootloader. what's wrong?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:
Go in Rom Manager you can see which you have installed from there hit and boot in to Recovery. For you best advice I can give is from Rom Manger 3.0.1.0 install the default Recovery 3.0.0.5 as you can switch between CM7 and IG with no problem.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leo221:
thanks, I was able to reboot into recovery from rom manager. question is why volume down+power boot loader method was gone using IG rom?

my guess is that you have fastboot enabled so teh phone isn't really shutting down or fully rebooting.

Check settings-applications and see if its enabled.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Veeker:
Hello guys,

I've bought myself a secondhand I-mate Jam with a French Rom on it which I offcourse want to change.

After trying many many I just don't seem to work. I think I never got in the Bootloader mode (hold Camera button + power button and then press the reset button) but when I do this my screen just turns black and nothing happens.

If I try to start up everytime I get the startup wizard with pen calibration. Then he goes to windows and starts with the customization untill the screen goes black again and I can't do anything. If I want to powerup again I need to slide the battery cover back and forth and then I can powerup again. Only just to get the startup wizard again.

Please help me with this. I'm going crazy with trying and trying.

Cheers,

Veek

After more searching and trying I finally got the HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3 from Cotulla installed. Only my radio isn't the good version.:rolleyes:

So trying to go back to older rom with good radio and then install HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3 again.

And I think with I-mate the bootloader is just a black screen. I still keep getting a black screen when I try to acces bootloader mode.
