3G data on gray/edge most of time - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

My 3g on my nexus is mostly always in gray/edge. I just got this phone flashed to boost mobile? Any ideas. I didn't flash thia phone myself. The only thing i have do to this phone was rooted. Thank you. George

Did you possibly go over your data plan limit?
Or running with a Sim from service that cant use the 4g service native to the phone?

I was told never to try to go on 4g. Um ... I don't think its possible for me to even download anything over at the speeds that I get right now. It goes off and on. It just sets really annoying. I didn't do the flashing or anything. I even try to manually to stay on "GSM/cdma auto prl " and choosing the radioband to "USA "

I have no idea. I just bought this phone off Craigslist and it was boost ready. Sorry I know I'm not a big help

Don't know much about cdma. when I was researching flashing a broken epic to see if its worth fixing the screen, I notice you need a boost 3g phone to do it. Could be that it wasn't. Could be your plan, area. Have you done a speed test?

Where can I do a speed test? Well the last one I had was a flip phone Motorola from boost. For a couple times I thought that could be

Yea I hated sprint man. With all the new changes I jumped ship and got a the nexus. Love it.
Sent from my Nexus S
probably at the next ice age you'll see a release on CDMA
More likely to see a S2 1st, rather than a S on Sprint ...
Looks like there will be one.

CDMA is primitive...I don't know how it exists with GSM available
There is one now.

This one might as well have been called the S2 - I don't believe the S had any support for 4G like the S 4G does, no?

What is "prl" and "profile" in the settings? I'm new with sprint.

What is "prl" and "profile" in the settings? I'm new with sprint. Don't exactly know what those two options are for, and why they need to be updated. Thanks for any response I can get: p

Prl preferred roaming list, tells your phone about the way it connects to towers. Profile is for your data connection, used to sync your phone to your data access

Ok thanks, appreciate the info. How often should one update these? On a side note, you look like the dude from shinedown

No, you don't generally have to worry about profile and prl just when new towers arrive in your area. Shinedown huh lol glad I just cut all the hair off lol

[Q] Nexus S 4G - Pictures disappeared?

Minutes ago, I went into the gallery and I'm missing dozens of pictures. It seems like mostly pictures that I've taken with the camera.
Anyone else experience this? Thanks!

People wonder why nobody wants to help others anymore....
Surely you gave information about what you had already tried....Oh wait you didn't.....
Have you tried deleting data from the gallery app?

I don't have a NS 4G but a GSM one, but I had this problem ones, and have lost at least a hundred of pics....and after checking it finally seemed that it was Rom related problem, or maybe kernel...don't know. So maybe search in this way...
Thanks. They're gone. Not sure about this.

4g data plan vs 3g

I have been using my micro sim in my infuse and got a text from att saying I should change to a 4g data plan. Does it really matter because I don't want to change.
Thanks
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
I asked to change and noticed a 0 change in speed.
Cranky...
O dear they are going to change the NAME of the data feature you are on, that's right the name, not the feature, price, or your contract, JUST THE NAME!!! I would call and cancel if I were you....

When I first got my infuse about 3 months ago they sent me the same message and have continued to send them once or twice a month. I just ignore them and continue to pull down 6-10mbps here in Chicago

They make adapters.
EDIT: People moving from iPhone 4s(plural, not 4S.) usually keep them.and either are given or buy an adapter.

Thanks guys...I talked to a local Rep who said if I didn't change then some of my features wouldn't work. I haven't experienced that using my iphone sim card but if they change my plan to 4g would that affect my iphone the other way? I mean features not working.
I know there is no price change im just concerned about everything working right
I have to say I was having real trouble getting good speeds till I switched. I don't know if I was imagining it or if it was just coincidence, but i switched from an iphone, could only pull 1mb down and 250kb up. Got that text, switched it(its only 5 dollars more I believe) and started pulling down 5-6 mb.

will samsung galaxy nexus value go up?

since google no longer sells the unlocked gsm samsung nexus, does anyone think the value will possibly go up on Dealextreme?
I don't think so. Since the launch of nexus 4, the only wayvi can see someone paying more for the GN is if he desperately craves LTE. So in US it might go up, but in other parts of the world, very slim chance

I thought GNex is still only a HSPA+ device, same as the Nexus 4. Or am I wrong?
