Looking to upgrade soon and might have the option of getting a phone with just 850 3g band and wanted to see if there was a way to test coverage locally. My blackjack does both so that doesn't help alone, and if I set it to 850 gsm it loses all signal. That might mean no 850 3g, but wanted to be sure that was the case and if not conclusive what I can do to see signals in the area.
Does anyone know if a version of the Galaxy S is going to be released with the AT&T 3g bands? I've heard AT&T is supposed to be receiving the Captivate, however, I have no interest in picking up a branded (and most likely crippled) phone. I wanted to purchase an unbranded and unlocked Galaxy S that supports AT&T 3g, but I search Google and the forums here and found no information about where to purchase one, or if one even exists. It shows on gsmarena.com that there is supposed to be a version of the Galaxy S with AT&T bands but I wanted to know if anyone has any information on where to purchase one or if one is actually going to be released and when.
I used a Blackjack with WM5 and loved it, now im using a Blackjack II with 6.1. Im thinking of upgrading, the two phones that im thinking of is the Propel Pro and the Jack. Any users that have recentyl upgraded from the Blackjack II to either of these models? is it worth the upgrade? I dont think i would use wifi that much. I have a pretty good data plan, and I dont use it to much for other than browsing on opera mini. i know the new phones can be run on WM 6.5 when it comes out, but i herd there are roms availible for the BJ II.
Looking for extended battery for blackjack 2, form a reliable source. found some on line, 3000ma, not sure if co. is reliable. has anybody purchased any?
I would like to downgrade my blackjack to WM5, but cannot find any links that are still alive. Does anyone have the UCGB4 ROM, the file "Blackjack_Upgrade.zip", "sgh_i607_gb4_rebranding_emr.exe" or "sgh_i607_gb4_rebranding_emr.zip"?If you can help me out please let me know either here or vegetto999@yahoo.com.
Poking around some other forums and the Samsung site I found out the Winmo 6.1 update release for the i617 was seemingly updated with a maintenance release?
I have flashed my Cingular 3125 extensively but it is getting too old and back won't stay on. I have modified all I can on Blackjack II (sgh-i617) w/o flash. It's on Win Mob 6.1, I want to change the start-up pic and sound, I know this is a bit of an older issue but can anyone gimme a link or advice on how to progress? Everythings unlocked Subsidy,CID, etc, experienced and have many tools, just have not been in the loop for awhile.

I recently purchased this BlackJack from TigerDirect, and was wondering if there is a way to debrand it and then Brand this thing to AT&T with all their apps and stuff? Upgrade firmware?
I just got 2 used Samsung phones (i760 and i770), and wanted to know if there's a way to check how long the phones have been used? Is there a internal usage counter that can be revealed by punching in some code?
I bought a BB Torch 9860 in USA, and I live in Argentina, and as I couldn't get 3G on it I was searching and I foun out that I got a wrong 3G bands units. mine is model RDQ71UW with bands 1-4-8, and local mobile provider here, Claro, explained to me that I need the bands 1-2-5-6, that I understand is on model RDP71UW.I also understand that it is not something that could gets re-configured.So I should buy a correct unit and try to sell this one, is that right?Is not possible to get this model in Argentina because we have many limitations to importations. at the States do they sell/use boht models? so, in that case I could get the correct one there, and also offer mine there, correct?What countries or regions uses each of those models?
Even though the Backflip comes to AT&T in a week, it looks to me that the Droid/Milestone may be the better phone. Bigger but better. But can I get one that uses all the AT&T 850MHz bands? It doesn't seem to be like Nokia, where I could simply buy the phone I wanted from (e.g.) J&R or NewEgg; where does one buy unlocked NAM (North American) Motorola Milestones from?
I wanted to know if anyone who got this phone already is experiencing this.mine is comming in the mail in a coupple of hours and Im hoping i dont have a bad apple
Old V9x was Telstra locked and ran on 3G 850 MHz (called NextG here) which suits me fine. Flip on phone got damaged, so bought another that is unlocked. Has GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 and 3G HSDPA, but not 3G 850.
Q1: Is the band availability able to be changed via software or hardware?
Q2: If it is hardware is there any issue with swapping the chip set PCB from old phone to new? (Have seen the dismantling stuff on the net)
I have Ad Detector on my Samsung Galaxy S2. I have downloaded Ad Detector and it has identified risky ad plugins on 2 apps.Temple Run has Urban Airship and Go Launcher Ex Black Theme has AirPush hidden within. what these programs do and are they a threat?
What frequency bands will the Telus Moto Milestone support? All the info seems to indicate 850/1900 for 3G and no info on 2G except for rumors saying the same as the EU milestone or only 850/1900.I was hoping for at least tri-band 3G and quad-band 2G. I am sick and tired of these phones with weak-sauce frequency bands.
My BIS is with Rogers and now that I'm in Hong Kong, I turned off my network. If i use local wifi and connect to BIS that way, will there be data charges? Cause once I connected with wifi, i can receive emails and BBM. Just wondering if I will get charged while connected with wifi.
i'm french and when i write some sms with special accent like "ë", the caracter takes many space in the 160 caracters limit. btw thirds apps like GosmsPro or Handcent SMS can handle with it but not the native sms application....
My N97 mini is used as a mobile phone and as a navigation aid. Thus I do not need the icons on the start screen that uses internet, etc. I would very much like to fill the startscreen with icons like calendar and contacts, etc instead. However it seems like 3 of the areas on the screen where icons can be placed are reserved for internet type icons. Is there a a way to put local icons in these areas?
I bought a Lumia 920 in France and after changing all the regional settings to my liking the Local Scout app stopped working. It reported that was not available in my Country/Region.It turns out that even though France is defined as the Country/region, Local scout will only startup if France is also defined as the Browser language setting.I do believe that it is a bug as the prefered language for the browser should not be used to determined the location.
I went to my local Apple Store in Jacksonville, FL. I went to take back my Apple Bumpers, I had 2 of them. They gave me my money back. Me and my wife had purchased 2 cases at Best Buy. I saw a Retail Associate, I said mam, do yall have any cases for the iPhone 4? She said NO, with a tone, we only carry bumpers, with a tone, a bumper is all you need. It was like she read a script to me.
The creeps at AT & T despite the tons I've spent over the years tell me my Torch is "not eligible" to be unlocked although my wife's pitiful Blackberry is. They also "can't" read WON'T tell me when it would be eligible. I'd love to use local SIM cards when traveling so my friends can call me on a local number.
I am based in the UK, and my UK Blackberry has a BIS account with a UK carrier. I will shortly be travelling abroad and would like to use a local simcard with my Blackberry, and create a new BIS with the local carrier of the country where I will be travelling. The reason for this is because my UK carrier charges a high cost for data services abroad.
l'm in senegal ,my iphone 4s 5.1 is on sprint,now l want to use it with a local sim card but it alltime say that the iphone is not actived,please help me to unlock it
