I have an HTC EVO Design (Kingdom) from Sprint. It is a hybrid CDMA/GSM world phone with a sim slot, but it is network locked to Sprint only in the US. I am wondering if I root this phone with a custom rom/kernel, will I be able to use it with any GSM carrier in the US?

i`m using the samsung galaxy s 3,i want to change the name of carrier,how can i do that?i have rooted my phone already,and i don`t want to use the 3minit to change it
View 1 Replies View Relatedbasically I'm running FreeXperia's CM9 on my Xperia U, and it doesn't recognise/support my network (carrier) which is Virgin Mobile UK, an MVNO.
I believe this is a general issue with Cyanogenmod, my phone works but it says no service instead of the network name, it's seriously annoying. Cyanogenmod has the Virgin Mobile apns in it's apns-conf.xml, but it won't use these as it can't see that that is the network I am connected to.
Basically my phone should display:
Virgin = when using T-Mobile UK
virgin = when using Orange UK.
Instead it just says no service the whole time?
I'd like to add support rather than just use an app to change the text.
MCC - 234, MNC - 31 and MCC - 234, MNC - 32.
I want to use super one click root to root my captivate which is unlocked to any gsm carrier ( currently simple mobile) my concern is will it re-lock it to just at&t and will it brick my phone?

Is there any other way to find out which carrier this device belongs to? I have called Verizon, U.S. Cellular and CSpire and neither of them can find the MEID in their system.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI noticed that my Nexus One (stolen the 8th of July) still appears on my devices lists on Google Play, with some interesting information I want to clarify that this happens with the Google Account password changed (because I did it after the theft)!
My carrier wasn't Wind but H3G.
I assume there is nothing I can do, because I've changed the password of the Google Account (for security reasons), but I'm curious if there is some different way to find the new SIM number.
The IMEI would be blocked on the entire territory from tomorrow, so this thief will be able to use it with no phone functions.
I've had a few people receive my texts late, but have always thought the issue was more likely them just not seeing the notifications. But then one took 2 days to arrive on a friend's phone! We're both on Android (I'm on a Nexus 4 running Kit Kat), though I'm on Telus and I believe he's on Wind Mobile. As an FYI, the day of the 2-day-delay I was using Handcent as my SMS app, but in the past I was using the stock SMS app. is the extra delay caused by my SMS app, my OS/phone or my carrier?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to block the messages I get from my carrier about balance left after each call. Problem is that even though I pay for unlimited internet, every time an app stops a connection with the internet, I get an update saying my last transaction was 0 cents and my balance. I already disabled push messages in my SMS settings and that didn't work. Seems you can disable it in ios within the sim settings and disable "Flash" notifications.

I checked my phone battery from the sys folder and its showing only 500 charge full design and i think i am i having a battery indicator problem bcoz of this as my phone drops the charge from 100 to 1 % in only 1 to 2 hours of use and stays on 1% for many hours.So is there any way to change it with actual atrix battery capacity. I am facing this problem from the first day with original atrix battery that came with the phone i also tried various calibration methods,roms and kernels but nothing worked.

Which security software would you say is better for a non-rooted/rooted Android?
I have Cerberus on my SGS3 (Rooted), but a friend of mine has a non rooted SGS3 and wants to buy either Phone locator Pro or Cerberus.
1. (For Non-Rooted) In your mind, which would you say is better and why?
2. (Rooted) In your mind, which would you say is better and why?
I'm a new Android developer. I would like to make a simple game using the SurfaceView (Canvas drawing).the game has a a custom Object name Box. Box can draw itself and need to get an event when it is clicked. when it does, there is an animation sequence coming out of the box like a "jumping clown". I have several Boxes on the screen when each of them can be activated. Several Boxes animation can also be presented simultaneously.Here it gets tricky: Since I have a "complicated" animation sequence, each Box extends SurfaceView. The problem is I haven't figured it out how can I handle several SurfaceView's drawing using only one Thread (in order to present an animation I need to use one) and also how can I get the onClick/ onThouch event from my Activity to each of my Boxes.
The LunarLanding example in the SDK uses only one Thread but also uses only one SurfaceView which manage the animation of the game components (there are no several game components SurfaceViews). Also, there is no need to get onTouch event, so this example doesn't match to my case. I have several questions about what is the right approach do code this:
1. Should I use Box extends SurfaceView?
2. Can SurfaceView gets user events like onTouch/onClick?
3. Is there a way to add to the "main" SurfaceView another SurfaceView (Box)?
4. If none of the above questions is positive, should I use one SurfaceView (and one Thread) and try to map the other Boxes on the screen for user event handling. I mean Box only paints itself but the user event is being handled by me (not by the OS).
5. Should each Box (SurfaceView) should handle it's own Thread in case of animation (it is not good design but it is also an option)?
6. do you have any other proposal?
Come in and speculate! Will T-Mobile,VZW or any other carriers get an EVO like device? I have one rule and one rule only. If you think someone is a tool or troll or whatever don't flame them publicly in here! I DO NOT WANT THS THREAD TO GET LOCKED!

View 13 Replies View RelatedSo I read we can now change the carrier name from Verizon Wireless to anything we want with 16 char's. In the Droid, you edited the eri.xml file from the framework.apk. When I did this, I didnt see anything that said Verizon Wireless in HEX. Did a lil research and this seems to only apply to the Droid. Question I have is, has anyone found where we can edit this for the Eris.

View 1 Replies View RelatedLet me start by saying that I'm sure this has been covered but a search revealed nothing and an updated discussion can always help. So again, sorry for covering treaded ground, but here we go.I'm leaving my job and giving up my company blackberry - so I need a new phone/carrier/the whole package. I am at this point pretty darn addicted to smartphones and use them heavily for web browsing, email, maps, twitter, playing music, and scheduling myself (I don't really play games though). While my blackberry curve was leagues better than my old Windows Mobile-powered-Wing it still has left a lot to be desired. I need a step up.So its basically iphone vs an Android phone and while the iphone seems to win in nearly all the benchmarks out there, I just can't get past the Apple Tax, closed platform, non-replaceable battery, and my general Google fanboy-ism. I could also see myself developing OSS apps at some point - which Android has the more compelling story for.Further research has lead me to view my options as the Nexus, HTC Droid, or Eris. The Eris - although it has great reviews - just seems a bit kiddie so it's a distant third.My concerns are in this order* Good hardware (I'm ok with an onscreen keyboard unless the touchscreen sucks)
* Total cost of ownership
* Ability to use at my new job (meaning syncing with Exchange Server - though this shouldn't be a huge problem)
* Snazzy Operating system.
I just arrived to the Android world as the Desire is my first Android device. I would be grateful if someone could answer my question. I *did* search the forum for the answer before posting, but being completely new to Android, I couldn't find the one that would satisfy me - so if it is out there, please forgive me for asking it here.Anyway, coming from the N900 I was used to OTA OS updates without restrictions. Now, I'm looking forward to the 2.2 version of the Android (mostly for Flash 10.1 and apps installable on the SD card). However, I got the impression (hopefully a wrong one) that in order to install 2.2 on your Desire (unlocked), it must be pushed by your phone service provider/carrier (as opposed to the N900 where you could just download it and flash your device with it or upgrade over-the-air). This is a problem for me, since the carriers in my country don't seem to be interested in sending any OS upgrades (to any device) and the upgrade must be done manually. As I mentioned, the device is not locked to any carrier (if by that it means that you can put any SIM card in it and it works). Now, I know you could root your Desire and do it, but I'm wondering if there will be a way to upgrade to 2.2 (or just replace by flashing) without rooting?Also, if rooting is my only option - how dangerous is it? The N900 came rooted out-of-the-box (you just download the app to gain superuser privileges) so I have no idea what are the possible risks of doing it on your Desire. Can it permanently damage the phone?
View 15 Replies View RelatedI'm planning to buy a Samsung i7500 Galaxy when available in the UK. I'll probably buy an unlocked one on Ebay or similar. This is because I spend over half the year outside the UK, travelling. This is mostly in Europe and the USA but can be elsewhere. I'm therefore looking for a UK SIM-only deal for voice (light usage of perhaps 100 minutes per month), SMS (very few, perhaps 5 per month), and 3G data. A good deal on international roaming 3G data would be especially welcome.

"Carrier configuration
Unfortunately your network carrier is currently not supported for automatic voicemail configuration. To use Google Voice as your voicemail provider, please visit the Google Voice Help Center for more information."
Of course the help center offers no help for this issue. Note, I did a number port from US Cellular to Sprint, I'm not sure if that is the source of the problem. I did deactivate my Google Voice voicemail and then activated it again with Sprint labeled as the carrier. Still nothing.
Assuming it won't be Verizon since it's GSM But t-mobile, at&t?
