Motorola Xoom :: How To Change APN On Verizon
Aug 6, 2011
I am from Canada and purchased a USA Verizon Xoom 3G. Bell and Telus seem to run on the exact same network, but I am unable to get things up and running with them as the Xoom just cant "activate". The neetwork providers are asking if there is a way to change the APN setting in the Xoom as it appears to be searching for the Verizon Network.How can you do this as my Xoom only has a Home/Automatic setting under Mobile. There does not appear to be any manual setting

I bought a Motorala Xoom from Best Buy. The Xoom has always been unable to connect the Verizon network. So far I have only used it with wifi. I really now need it to connect to Verizon. When I take it into the store the techies are at a loss. Should I contact Motorala directly? I receive this error: Activation failed, Unable to activate mobile data service. To try activiation again touch Try again. You can activate your mobile data service later in Settings under Wireless & networks > Mobile networks.

My Verizon user account setup for your Xoom 3G service? To get registered they send you a text message with the password. Obviously that doesn't work, so what's the next step? They send you the password in the mail. So, got the letter, go back to their site and enter the device's phone number and temp password. It doesn't work. I call customer service, and the only other option is to get *another* letter in the mail.

If you work for a government agency and enjoyed a discount on your Verizon bill well say goodby to it. I just saw where my automatic bill payment to Verizon jumped 18% and I called to ask why and was told that Verizon no longer gives discounts to gov employees. And as it is not part of your contract they tell me you have no recourse.

I have just got myself an XOOM 3G, from Saturn electronics here in Germany. This is an device witout contract, and I am using it with my O2 data contract for 3G connectivity.
I was expecting that I would be able to change the OS language from the Standarad German to English... Huummph it seems not to be the case.
It looks like from my investigations that I will need to reinstall the Android OS, because The only language in German android in German SO my question is where do I find the download of the version of Android that has English as a selectable language? BTW the device's current OS level is H.6.3-25-9

I haven't seen this one discussed in a long time - speed of change versus the iFruit. I remember way back at the start of the year we basically concluded that the slow change from Landscape to Portrait and back was due to Honeycomb - some delay setting in SW. I was just at Best Buy and was able to compare the Xoom and Asus Transformer side by side. It's pretty evident that the Transformer switches a bit faster than the Xoom. So I am wondering if it is actually a hardware difference.Why is the change speed important? Well my theory (watching people compare all the tablets to the iPad) is that the iPad comes across as a much more polished device. The delay on the Android tablets make them look inferior.(BTW - was at BB to check out the Kindle Fire. Have it on pre-order to give as a birthday gift. I was considering to cancel the order, but based on playing with it, I think it will sufice)

Picking it up this morning I tried entering my security PIN only to find the numbers weren't registering. The problem? My finger holding the device - while not touching the screen area - was too close and was activating multitouch. Moving my finger out of the way solved the problem though my grip slips away and the device starts to fall out of my hands.
I can't be the only one that finds this tablet hard to hold. And the best part is, there's an easy remedy to the situation: give us the option to change the active screen area (e.g. shrink it by a certain number of pixels in order to give us more room to hold it). Even without changing anything else in Honeycomb this is still doable, yet I fear it will never become a reality.
Am I the only one who wants to see them let us shrink the touchable area of the screen so we can hold it better?

Ok so I bought an env2 off a guy on craigslist. I dropped my old one in a puddle but I really loved my env 2 so I bought a used one from someone on craigslist. When I went to activate it I discovered it was on revol's network, I dont live in the city hence I can get coverage on revol. Still says verizon all over it when you turn it on and off. I am not very savvy with cell phones but I am with a computer. I took it to the verizon store and they tried to put new firmware on it but it didnt work. I have a tough time beleiving that it can go from verizons network to revols but not back, if anyone has a way that I can flash the phone back to verizon.

This is for my father-in-law's phone. He has just basic service, so no text or data plan. Bitpim doesn't appear to support it and I cannot find a USB driver for it. The phone does not currently have Kies installed (I don't even know if it is supported on this phone). And he can't install new applications because he has no data plan. Is he pretty much out of luck or is there some alternate way of doing this that I haven't discovered yet?

I bought the device few days ago and on very same day updated to Android ver. 3.2. I use internet over my home Wifi and have a Netgear - WGR614 router. The browsing speed is very very slow and most sites dont open.The signal strength shown in xoom is - (-105 dBm 3 asu).Is this a issue with Android 3.2 update or my home wifi is weak? Would i be able to reset the tab to the original version?

Has anyone had any success with using Wifi that required user certificates? I'm trying to get my Xoom to connect to the corporate network (EAP-TLS) and followed the instructions for the IPad and imported my certificated into Android correctly. But when I connect, it hangs at the connecting state for minutes, before finally giving up.

I would like to buy the XOOM speaker dock and play music from my XOOM on a daily basis.... I'm worried about having it plugged (and charging) in too much and that I might GREATLY reduce the battery life by charging my XOOM too much.

The basic question is, can I hack this phone? What is best method in 2010?Boring Background: My wife and I both had Alltel V3m's when Verizon bought them out. Never thought of the V3m's as a "smartphone", but they work for the basics. When I physically broke mine, just purchased another "new" verizon v3m off of ebay for $75. This must be an older phone as it just uses ESN numbers, but has the newer 24.1_01.19.09.
After googling for days, searching this forum etc., all the information I can find seems old. Most start with... "if you have this software version stop, you can't do it". This locked down Verizon software is bad enough I may switch providers just to get rid of it (waiting on Android phones to mature).Can I revert this phone to sane software (having trouble believing I can't)? How would you do this in 2010?

I did the software update on Motorola software update, and the phone now has a verizon logo when it powers up, but when I go to activate the phone, *228, it is alltel on the line. What else do i need to make this phone work? I've tried to flash in the verizon monster with rsd lite,"VRZ_P3_NN_C_07.7A.00I_01.05.00R_MONSTER_01.ra r", but the flash always fails.

I recently activated a refurbished motorola q (until iPhone 5 comes out) and I am having an issue in which texts from other carriers i.e AT&T, sprint, only show the first character of the text message. I am however able to receive full texts messages from verizon wireless subscribers. I am able to send text messages with out any problem to all parties. I contacted both verizon and motorola technical support and they basically pointed fingers at each other. Has any one else had this issue or know of a fix?

I used the Verizon update (*228) today on my E815 done this many times prior with no trouble. After the phone rebooted, I tried making a call.Signal bars all went away and the call would not connect.I then tried power-cycling the phone; same problem.Tried enabling Test Mode, forcing CDMA mode, still won't place calls.I'm limping along on my old LG VX4600 good thing I kept it. Is there anything I can do to fix my E815 (change firmware/PRL manually)?

I have used the search feature and been unable to find any information on this so if it is posted elsewhere I apologize. I have a Verizon Razr V3m that I would like to flash to Metro PCS. I am completely new to this process and need very easy to follow directions on how to do this. I do have slightly better than average computer skills so have a good understanding of how to do things.
Basically I need to know what program is best to download to do this, what the steps are to complete the process and what I should know before I start, ie: how to back up files from the phone that I am flashing, which files to back up, etc.

Would it be possible to flash my A455 Prepaid mobile from Telus to the Verizon firmware, or would the fact that it's prepaid mess up the flashing?I've been reading threads on people flashing their A455 to the Verizon firmware from Koodo Mobile, but noone ever mentions whether they have a prepaid phone or not.Would flashing a prepaid phone mess up the phone?
