No man, all 3.xx are froyo based and 4 will be gingerbread with new sense 2.1... 3.1 has more features cause it's older and more work was done in it, also many people agree that is more stable, cause it's made over a official release, while version 4 is based in a htc leaked, not offical yet.

[HTC 7 Pro] hopmedic:
With the Arrive coming out on Sprint soon, and the Trophy coming to Verizon, allegedly on the 24th, I'm wondering if it will be possible to get an Arrive to work on Verizon? Verizon's coverage in my area is far better than Sprint's, but I don't want the bottom of the barrel WP7 device, as I've heard the Trophy called. I have used the Mogul, the Touch Pro, and now the Touch Pro 2, and really like having that slide-out keyboard.

Any idea if getting Arrive to work on Verizon, or am I doomed to deal with Trophy?

Thanks,

Rich
[HTC 7 Pro] Musicman247:
No idea. The only WP7 device I've heard of for Verizon is the Trophy, like you stated.

You can get the Arrive on Sprint and roam on Verizon! :D

I am hoping that a few more WP7 devices are announced for both carriers at CTIA (March 22-24).
[HTC 7 Pro] cyclical:
truth...

Sprint has agreements with Verizon, when you roam on Sprint it is through Verizon's network and there is no extra charge.

You could get on the Sprint Everything Plus Data plan for $59.99, and pay another $10 for the premium data plan, and pay $69.99 for a new HTC Arrive.
[HTC 7 Pro] hopmedic:
Really.... :/

I had a Sprint Mogul when I moved to GA two years ago. The reception was PATHETIC. You used to see the commercials where someone would say something then drop the call, and it was totally awkward? Well, that happened to me. I was talking to a dear friend, and said, "I love you, Patty", and the call dropped, and I WOULD have continued, "you're one of the dearest friends I have." Of course she didn't hear the last part. I drove up and down the road desperately seeking a bar. JUST ONE BAR! I switched to Verizon and that problem went away.

So, I guess the question I have now is whether the switch to CDMA on Sprint is that recent? I wasn't aware that I could use a Sprint phone on a Verizon network, and due to my past experience I didn't check. If the answer is yes, then I believe I will be cancelling my Verizon contract when the Arrive arrives! ;)

Hmmm... Only issue is that my VZW plan is unlimited data - TRULY unlimited - because I had it on an employee plan when I got it (and I'm not an employee of that company anymore). Is Sprint's plan TRULY unlimited?
[HTC 7 Pro] cyclical:
Sprint unlimited really is unlimited, but if you read the fine print they reserve the right to terminate you if you get retarded on it, just like any other carrier. Check with a local Sprint store about the coverage/roaming issue. Most plans on Sprint now include free roaming nationwide, and I can't think of what other major carrier in the US has CDMA other than Verizon.

Don't! sign up for a plan through the store, you need to do it online through the Everythign Plus referral, and get the plan for $10 less than doing it in store. So you can bet a HTC Arrive and pay $59.99+$10 premium data = $69.99 for 500 anytime minutes to landlines, and unlimited any mobile any time, unlimited data, pictures, text, nights starting at 7pm, etc. etc. etc.

http://www.sprint.com/everythingplus

You will need a Sprint employee email address/pin. This is where Russ McGuire comes into play, he is Vice President of Strategy for Sprint. On his blog he invites everyone for the sprint offer.

http://mcguireslaw.com/

(under about on the right hand side he has his email address and pin for everyone to use freely/Legitimately)

Addendum: their fine print says they can terminate/stop service if you use too much data outside their network etc, so the roaming thing would apply here. Wouldn't hurt to check out if their coverage has improved in your area.
[HTC 7 Pro] hopmedic:
Very interesting - thanks so much for the info! I guess now I'm tossing up the pros and cons of going with that or going through wirefly and getting the phone for $50 - especially since my wife will get an arrive if it is $50, but she wont' get it if we have to pay $200 (after rebate). I'm looking at it like this:

From Wirefly:

2 phones $100

monthly rate $149

From Sprint:

1 phone $200 (plus whatever phone my wife ends up getting)

monthly rate $129

So, for $20 a month over 2 years, I would save a total of $480. At a $150 savings for each Arrive buying through wirefly, that takes the comparable savings down to 180. Given that my wife won't get an Arrive if we have to pay full price now (since we'll also have to pay early term fee for our current Verizon contract), She would probably go with a free phone, and I'd save more money, but she wouldn't have WP7 (which I want her to have).

You've given me much food for thought. Right now I'd say we're probably going to end up going with Wirefly, but I'm going to sit on the decision for a couple days to decide. Thank you.
[HTC 7 Pro] cyclical:
Let me further add to your thoughts, wirefly still may not be the best option.

If you sign up with Sprint and port your current number over to them from another carrier they will give you $125 credit for each smartphone.

http://www.sprint.com/landings/portcredit/

Sooooo $400 for 2 Arrive's, minus $250 - $150 for 2.

Hope this further helps you. :)
[HTC 7 Pro] hopmedic:
Wow.... That's awesome.... Now I'm going to have to look and see if I can combine the everything plus with the port credit, and double check to make sure we can receive two $100 rebates if we buy two phones. Thanks!
[HTC 7 Pro] cyclical:
The port credit information was posted on the Everything Plus referral page after you logged in with the email and pin number. And the $100 refund credit is definately per phone regardless of how many you purchase.

The only thing you need to make sure of is that Sprint services your area well. :)

Hope I was able to help you save some money no matter what you decide, let me know what you finally end up doing. I am picking up 2 Arrives on Sunday (for wife and I).
[HTC 7 Pro] tomberenger:
Credit Union Discounts

For those who go/have gone through wirefly for the 50 dollar deal (which I did), since we can't sign up for the Referral Program, the next best option to still get 10% knocked off your bill is to get a discount through any affiliated credit union (of which, there are TONS). Long-term, for 1 phone, Getting the port credit and Referral discount probably works out better, but I couldn't justify spending 300 up front for the phone, waiting x number of weeks for the rebate etc.. :(

I just got my HTC Arrive on the Verizon Wireless network via Page Plus Cellular thanks to this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13205205&postcount=9

I replaced my well used Touch Pro 2 with an Arrive because I was waiting for Windows Phone 7 and Netflix capabilty. I'm not a heavy phone data user because I have Wi-Fi everywhere I go.

So far I was able to get the talk and text working for my unlimited plan but haven't hammered out the rest of the data settings. Might have to wait for a Verizon Trophy to come out so that I can try to mirror the settings. This method is technically on Verizon so 95% of the service is the same at a much better price. I need mainly lots and lots of Talk/Text with NO data plan fees.
[HTC 7 Pro] god_forbids:
I actually bought my 2 phones from Amazon Wireless. Both were upgrades for non-primary lines on a family plan (Everything Data 3000) and AW had the best deal on the devices I could find anywhere, $150. The deal got even better now though, $99 for upgraders and free for new users.

my old phone was Tattoo and it was always staying on HSPA or something like that! now on my nexus I'm always on 3G!

what can you tell me about this, or how can I fix it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tristan_2468:
Stock Android does not distinguish between 3G and HSDPA on the status bar. You should still be getting HSDPA speeds though.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bikers:
that's kinda odd! thanks for the answer...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
Most people don't know the difference between Edge, 3G, or any of the HSPA variants (HSPA, HSPA+, HSDPA, HSUPA). Heck they don't even know what 4G is and couldn't tell you what on earth LTE, WiMax, or HSUPA is. Stock Android doesn't differentiate because people know what 3G means and since HSPA is still technically at the most 3.5G it is a little confusing to change the symbol. The mass population dictates the way things work and we here at XDA find ways to make it work the better way. =) Hence the reason why a good number of custom roms allow for the OS to differentiate between each individual type of data network usage.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] bhaskaramp:
I have HTC P3300 and it came with WM6 with the following config.

ROM : 3.7.701.1 WWE

ROM date : 6/21/07

Radio : 02.69.90

Protocol : 4.1.13.30

ext Rom : 3.6.707.101

Now i want to upgrade it to WM6.1

I SEARCHED THRU MANY POSTS. i got so many answers to my questions but i have some fundamental questions and if anybody can answer that i will be really obliged.

1) I have vodafone India. Can i flash a ROM which is for another carrier. For eg. when I searched the thread "Artemis_Upgrades" I could not find any HTC WWE factory ROM which matched the above specs. BUT when i saw the factory ROM of DOPOD WM6. It matched the above specs perfectly.

so the basic question is if anything goes wrong in my upgrade then can I flash the DOPOD rom on my HTC

2) I have searched the forums but i could not find a valid factory WM6.1 ROM. If anybody can provide a link then it would be a great help to me. Please also specify which ROM (dopod or any other) is compatible to my HTC.

3) Once i get both the above factory ROMs (WM6 and WM6.1) i will be flashing my HTC and the steps that i would follow is as mentioned in this post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=401814

1) soft -reset using the USPL

2) flashing the ROM.

Please let me know if I need to do anything other than this!

follow the link that neo gave you and flash your p3300 with uspl1.11.cmon.

you cant go wrong if you follow the steps on my thread in post 1.

if it does not work, or if you have any questions, just message me, im always here to help.

*do not try

anything

untill you have sucessfully done uspl1.11.cmon.

Sooo.. the point im trying to make is: you wont even need the original/official rom once you have got uspl1.11.cmon installed.

eg, if you flash a rom and it goes wrong, uspl1.11.cmon will let you flash ANY rom, so the original/official rom is not even needed!

[Defy General] martint235:
Hi,

I've used a USB charger on all my phones for a few years now. Just plug phone in on my desk and no worries. However my new Defy doesn't seem to take a charge from the USB on my network device (it's not a full PC). However my HTC HD2 could get a charge from it so:

1. Is the Defy more power hungry that it won't charge from an ND (I assume NDs put out less power over USB than a PC)

2. Does it just not show on the battery on the Defy that it's charging?

3. Have I missed something simple? I've gone into USB connection and selected charge only. I can't install drivers on the ND though, could that be it? The ND hasn't said it's found new hardware either though.

Thanks in advance for advice
[Defy General] 999phonebug:

Thanks. I thought it would be that.

Bit short of plug sockets at work but I'll figure something out
[Defy General] technome:
Another point to note is that the Defy is very fussy regarding USB cables. A lot of cheap ones will pass data but no charge.
[Defy General] kashavsehra:
Would you consider hacking a usb cable to make a charging lead? A standard usb lead plugged into a PC will try to enumerate with the PC before it starts to draw power from the PC. However if you hacked a usb cable and shorted the DM and DP lines on the phone side, the phone 'should' detect the cable as a mains charger rather than a PC, thus enabling charge without any drivers on the PC. It would be something like the attachment...
[Defy General] martint235:
Thanks for all the replies. Although my USB cable wasn't cheap and was capable of charging an HD2 which must be more power hungry than a Defy, it turns out the Defy is really fussy. It's charging fine through the Motorola USB lead on my network device.

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
You might need a data wipe - if you can get past the birds but get stuck at some point after the "GTablet" screen, a data wipe would be my first suggestion.

The problem is that 1105 bekit nvflash (and mine) doesn't have clockworkmod embedded in it to fix that. But, as a workaround, you can replace "part9.img" in the bekit 1105 with clockworkmod's "recovery.img" (just rename part9.img to part9.img.org and then rename recovery.img to part9.img). Redo the nvflash, the reboot into recovery when you are stuck again and wipe data. Once "fixed", then you can undo the change and reflash one more time to get back to full stock, or OTA update to 3588 to get 3588 stock.

I know this is a bit of a PITN due to all the steps, but it does work.
