Hello I just got a One S yesterday. my old phone is a HTC HD2
I found the PDF of the users guide for this phone but as I am reading, I dont see the options they are talking about on my phone.
for example.....if you hit the apps button from the home screen you are "supposed" to be able to find something called "show Me" and "transfer" but I dont find this stuff.
my main issue right now is trying to find a way to transfer my contacts from my old phone to the new one. and no my contacts are not linked to google or anything else.
thanks for any help or comments,
Nicole
I don't undrstand why ud get such a nice phone and have to read the user guide loool u had the hd2 wats wrong with u lool anyway apps are organised alphabetically transfer will be on last page swipe right and there is also a search function u can use top right corner on all apps

thats the odd thing, from what I see neither of those exist on the phone. not on the app list and not when I search for them.
Should be ;/ check your boatloader are u unlocked ? Where did u get It from? When u set up phone the last step is transfer why didn't u do It?

I got the phone from a T-Mobile store. The guy there started up the phone to make sure it was working. I think I am stuck manually entering everyone. Now I am also stuck with all my facebook people synced on here by accident. Searched the forum and all ways to fix this don't seem to work either. Darn it. Lol. Nothing seems to be going good for me
Dowload ruu and flash it will put u exactly how it should be

The How To seems to download pdf instructions (didn't try), Transfer is a phone to phone sync.
Bell (Canada) doesn't seem to **** around with phones too much, the only thing I can tell they install is the "Mobile TV" app (maybe sympatico.ca too, I don't have a sympatico e-mail with them), which is included in my monthly plan (10 hours a month, does not add to data). HBO is 5$. It has a couple dozen channels for free (could watch the stanley cup live on it).
I can't remember anything pre-installed on my Legend when I got it either.
That's odd. So those exist on some of the one.s phones but not all. I definitely don't see them on mine

I guess T-Mo removed those apps and didn't remove it from the user's guide.
I still have transfer on LeeDroid custom rom
Maybe someone smarter than me can get OP the app
But, there are some transfer apps in Play Store
I did see a setting somewhere when I set up accounts not to sync Facebook etc--forget where--

hey guys, just started working at att and i requested the tilt as my company phone. well i got it yesterday, but i am completely pda/smartphone illiterate..
and i have been skimming over this forum but it minus well have been written in chinese...
so i read that quick gps is already loaded on the phone? i went through file explorer and couldn't find it anywhere... did i over look it?
also, the phone seems really laggy... from the screen switching from potrait to landscape... and there seems to be alot of lag in pressing the numbers on the touchscreen.
i've seen all the rom flashes and such... but is there a dummy guide to flashing the rom? do i download it onto my comp then move it over using active sync? does it matter what folder i put it under?
sorry for the stupid questions, but i tried my best to read through the threads but i couldn't seem to absorb anything...
-tj
mail me your phone, ill put quickgps on it and whatever custom rom you want..
couple of things
first off, try advanced search for the kaiser thread
second, coming from att might get you banned here... seems anyone that mentions xda on att forums gets banned
(i for one have been happy with the customer service)
there are plenty of guides to flashing, but basically you need to be careful. hook up to active sync and install hardspl, it won't look like anything happened so verify that you did it. then you're ready to flash your rom of choice. I use XDA Live, just keep in mind that flashing is risky and so you need to read read read... I'd stick with the stock rom for awhile anyway
quickgps is under programs BTW
this thread might be deleted just on the principal that there are a hundred like it
thanks for the info....
didn't know there was so much animosity between att workers and xda people...
i just work there to pay the bills and put food in the mouth... hopefully some of you know where im coming from...
also, to get my today screen to look like this....

not really interested in the bee in the background but more the layout of the today screen... im guessing that would require a rom flash? it just looks so much cleaner then the standard today screen...
-tj
To make your screen look like that, background excluded, all you need to do is to fing HTC Home cab file and install it. You do not need to change the ROM. Search... grasshopper...er bumble bee

Hi guys,
I've managed to install many applications on my Nexus S, however I just can't install Beautiful Widgets on it at all. Does anyone know if this screenshot attached can help - or can anyone point me in the right direction?

I've emailed the developers, and they say that Beautiful Widgets is indeed compatible with the Nexus S, and they develop on the Nexus S all the time.
So I don't know if it is my Google Apps account or something else that is making this difficult?!
Thanks guys
Did you try buying it from the Market app on your phone rather than the website?
As a last resort, you can download the app market enabler and spoof it as T-Mobile USA and buy Beautiful Widgets
It definitely works on the NS but I wish I hadn't bothered as it seems really pixaly.

I've had no problems with it on mine. I use the Beautiful Home Smaller Weather widget on both my home screen and lock screen. It's pretty terrific. You might have issues with the location function, but if you do, you just have to clear the caches in any apps that use location (when I first got it, it was setting to my old apartment. I had to wipe data in BW and Maps, and it's been fine).
The OP isn't asking if the widget works on the NS or not. The problem the OP is having is buying the app from the website, unsure if he can buy it within the market app.
Thanks for the advice.
I can't actually find the Beautiful Widgets app in the Market app on my phone.
Even if I go to the developer's website and scan the QR code, the Market app tells me that there are no search results.
Perhaps then it is a location (South Africa) problem, and I will need to spoof it as T-Mobile USA and buy Beautiful Widgets.
I've just never rooted my phone, and if this is the case, I will need to do some more reading up on how to backup, root, recover, etc before I go any further!
Thanks for the help!
P.S. Going to try purchase it with AndroidPit website ... will revert!
Hi Guys,
It was definitely a location type problem between my phone and Google, or else a problem with Google Checkout and my credit card?
Perhaps I can't purchase any app through the Google Marketplace? I'll have to check that out further.
At any rate, I purchased the BW app through AndroidPIT and BW works perfectly!

Are you on 2.3.3 GRI54? Previously I flashed the Axura ROM and I can see almost all apps but not Fifa 10, when I go to market.android.com, it says the same thing, the app is not compatible with my phone. The developer fixed it by using back the signature GRI40 for the ROM.

The OP already fixed the problem, it was a problem with his location.
No need to respond to this thread anymore.
@gene: I hope thats not warez.
I looked around here and didn't see any threads like this one so I made a new one.
My friend just got a Samsung T528G smart phone. It is a straight talk phone. I don't think it can be done but does anyone know if you can use the phone as a modem for a PC to have an internet connection? Or even turn the WIFI feature into a hotspot?

I've done some digging on this very same phone because I'm trying to figure out how to side load "java" apps on the insanely greedy TouchWiz OS. You can tether the phone, but its "locked" out because StraightTalk does not want you doing this. I have not actually read up on it yet, as I'm still trying unlock, and sideload mode; but apparently its against the end user agreement to tether. Thank goodness my wife hates her T528G and we'll be getting her an Android phone as soon as possible. I came to XDA to see if there was any cool tricks I could do with the T528G myself, in all fairness to the phone, it does what its supposed to do, and is intended to be an entry level "smart phone".
thats not a smartphone
just move on and buy the real.smartphone

He's right !
My brother and I are working on putting Android on an HTC Kieser to get my wife of the 528... I dislike the Windows mobile, and I don't like working with it, that is why we're trying to put Android on it. I know it can be done, has been done.

If you did manage to get Android on it, it would likely be so slow, you wouldn't want to use it anyway.
the smartphone is useless.
unless the owner of the phone is smart enough to use the smartphone
Too slow on a Kaiser?

The title pretty much sums it up.
I like to get caught up with a few specific rom-threads when I get a few minutes at work, but last night (at work), my GS3 wouldn't load the pages properly using the phones browser. No worries at the time, I figured I'll just catch up on my pc when I get home. So now I'm home on my pc, but I still get the same jumbled up pages. I am so not happy.
I use Firefox on the pc, but tried Chrome browser, and even IE-10. Cleared cookies and cache but get the same thing on all of em. Obviously I am not the only one this is happening to, so any info is appreciated.
I'm just hoping it's all back to normal when I get up tomorrow.
But tonight, I might actually have a problem getting to sleep without my daily dose of xda lol.
Edit- twitter said something about the hosting company doing something to the network.
a suggestion.
google play has a application for these forums, if you download that, that will help fix the display problems
hope that helps

Appreciate it and I already have a themed xda app, I just really prefer the phones browser. I might only spend 10-15 minutes browsing xda at work, so the phone not displaying it properly isn't that big a deal. But it's 8am here and still not displaying correctly on my win7 pc (or the phone browser), so I'm open to suggestions or ideas or anyone who could tell me whats up with xda. Probably spend more time on xda then almost all my other sites combined,so I'm pretty bummed right now.
It is not showing up properly for me either:

yup same.
Oh I thought it was just me...
Really, no one knows why all of a sudden xda isn't displaying properly? This is really annoying so maybe a mod will check in and let us know what is going on. As it is right now, the forum is really hard to follow and is basically unreadable.
Someone please help with this
Here's the solution for anyone still needing it. Thanks to clankfu for answering my post in the Sprint GS3 MOAR thread.

Edit - Tried to edit the title from my op to show [Solved] but didn't see that option.
i was thinking last night, and i changed to the themes, and one didnt show correctly, but soon as i changed to another one, like xda clasic or something like that it was alright.
the ones that are having trouble, hope it works...
to anyone who reads this topic, if you have any other ideas or suggestions excluding theme changing, please here in this topic....
admin or mods: please rename topic and add solved on it
Post your main use for your Android / iPhone /WinPhone
I think alot of people are really very curious..
Whats the main reason you NEED your Phone?
and then I should probably also mention that antiquated and frivolous use, practically all but forgotten these days.... "Making Phone Calls"
Some of you younger folks may not know what that is.. but I do believe several manufacturers actually still do support this function.
and then theres "SMS".. several phones are still carrying the torch on this one as well.. probably for sentimental reasons

The Google Nexus 4
Google tells us exactly what its made for:
"Play with Your favorite Google Apps"
"Use an 'amazing' Photo Sphere camera"
"Access your favorite entertainment on Google Play"
"Puts the best of Google in the palm of your hand"
"ZIP around the web" (yes, this has nothing to do with your carrier, eh?.. your hardware will make the internet faster... ya.. ok..)
"Experience 3D graphics and gameplay"
"Switch between multiple apps"
So... to summarize, these phones are made, specifically, for:
Putting Google Products in your hand
Use Google Apps
Entertain yourself with Google Play
Making you a Googlephile
Make you Googly with Google
Turning you into a Googlebot
woohoo...
cool
Sounds like the little green Android Robot is Google's graphical representation of its end user
I'm sure there's an internal Google memo to that effect somewhere..
