Hello all, I am new to this website and a newbie to the evo. I found an adroid app to roam only by Mr. Gregg apps. He then led me to this website to help me "root" the evo to use this app. I honestly am not sure how to do this, or is this something that I should not even think of doing? I need this option though, because where I work, I can't get very good service. My evo constantly jumps from sprint to no service to verizon (roaming) then back again. I can't get it to just roam.
If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
Dorothy

Newbie. I plan buying this phone when Rogers get it later this month. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of ALL the stuff that Rogers will have put on the phone? Unless someone knows of something they have done which is actually useful. Is there?
I plan getting my data via wifi - any tips on how to do this?
I'd like to use the GPS without going through Rogers. Is this possible?
Are there any programs I should load to make the phone more functional?
Many thanks.

Touch Pro is not this forum... this is for the original GSM Touch.
I thought Rogers is only getting the Diamond. Bell has both.

Future Shop, Rogers and Fido tell me they're getting it.
The retail Fido phone store at Park Royal vancouver already has it.
Ok, so lately my family has been considering switching over to Cell South (we live in mississippi) due to ATT being hardasses about switching my dads phone over to his business account.
Cell south has the Galaxy S phones available, and its currently the leading phone they offer that i'm interested in, followed next by HTC desire.
From everything that i've gathered, they are not updating their android phones to 2.2 until sometime early next year. the Froyo update is one of the main reasons ive been wanting to switch to something over my iphone. Wifi tethering being the leading reason. I know this is doable with apps and a rooted phone.
From what i've gathered, i might be able to update it, but i might have to manually input the carrier info into the phone? Is there a way to tell for sure if this will need to be done? If anyone else happens to be on Cellular Souths network who had delt with updating their phones, i would love some help/info, or if anyone can point me the way, i'd be quite grateful.
I've just been taking in so much info about these phones over the past few days its starting to get a bit fuzzy in areas.
Also, is Rooting these devices the same as any other, regardless of which network you are on?
And just another quick Galaxy question, im not sure im crazy about the "touch-wiz" interface samsung has, and i think i would much rather be using the standard android UI. Is this something you can do by default on the phones, or do you have to do some of the rooting/other customizing things on it?
Thanks to anyone with any amount of information. getting excited to get away from apple.
You can change the input settings without rooting the phone. Z4mod on market is the best and easiest rooting method. Phidelt82 released a custom rom for the cs galaxy a few days ago. If you do get one and need any help pm me up.

I have a motorola atrix 4g with at&t (garbage). Im constantly dropping calls and rarely have decent service. Does anyone know how to manually alter the PRL code on this phone...I have searched for hours and come up with nothing. Im assuming its under a hidden menu such as *#*#4636#*#* but I can not change it under that menu. any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you!!!
Sorry if this is redundant folks, but a friend of my stepfather has been having some issues. He recently purchased a G2X, used it for a month or 2 on T-Mobile, but now wants to switch to AT&T with his girlfriend. He's gotten pretty far, getting the IMEI from T-Mo and getting it actually unlocked. He's now got Calls and Texts up and running on AT&T's network, but he can't get any data to work. We know that 3G won't work on it, but we assumed EDGE would.
Any help here? I'm sure it something reasonably simple.
Please and thanks, XDA!
There's a thread in the SGS2 dev section with AT&T's APN settings. They probably need to be changed in the phone.
Mine is unlocked and I tried my wife's at&t sim and had no issues connecting to internet. Not that that helps you, just wanted to throw in my experience. I wonder if it makes a difference which type of rate/data plan the at&t sim is on.
G2X CM7
Thanks Barry, I found that thread and sent him the APN settings. I'll post back tomorrow with results.
And thanks for your input phburks. The reason why yours worked may be that you're running CM. Our g2x is running stock Android.

Hey folks,
I did a little research on the forums, but couldn't find a dedicated thread. It seems that you cannot activate any CDMA phone on Sprint's network. If that's not the case, I'd love to be corrected. If so, can anyone just explain to a curious mind why?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer this newbie.
