Wifi in mexico - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a region lock or anything in regards to the wifi on this tablets? Or anything that might be a compatibility issue in mexico?
I am going there this christmas and would rather take my tablet rather than my laptop and last time when the tf101 was on gingerbread it didn't work in mexico on wifi.

tf101 never had gingerbread... and im not sure you might want to check which band your wifi is on. if its above 11 i think you need to change your wifi settings to europe

Okay honeycomb lol same difference

I don't currently have my tablet with me, but where is the band setting located exactly?

4g still works that was just a mistake by the dev, he forgot to implement the 4g icon

When on public wifi, you usually have to open a browser and agree to their terms before anything on wifi will work. Did you do that?
No never did. Not know about that

Yeah it's super annoying as many times those pages are not compatible with mobile browsers. There's a number of times I've had to mess around with it for awhile to get internet to work. Depending on the browser I've used there are times the agreement page doesn't even show up.

Mine is working now on both phones. I may have been out of range previously as I was in the driveway... may have also been the router which I just reset for other reasons

Netflix app not streaming on 4G

So I started a Netflix account last night on my PC it works fine but when I try to stream it on my phone I get an error saying we could not connect to the Netflix service try again later ( some other unimportant stuff ) then error code 12001. I called Netflix and the girl I spoke with said it was an issue with Samsung devices after the newest update. I'm currently running synergy nightly builds the 9/5/2012 build. Was wondering before I revert back to stock if anyone else was having this issue or any at All?

Im pretty sure after the latest update it only streams on wifi.

Thanks for the reply she mentioned something similar to this but not those exact words. What if I download an older apk? Unless its going to prompt me to automatically update the app if that's the case I'll just cancel and use some other service any recommendations?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Actually I think I was wrong before. The update added a wifi only toggle in settings.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
The newest Netflix is working fine on both of my Droid Charge and Galaxy S3. The issue is with your phone. It also works fine on my Asus tf700 (wifi and tethering through 4G).
OK can't decide if I want to switch ROMs or just use hulu decisions decisions

Im on synergy 1.7 and use netflix on 4g with no issues ever. Besides draining my batt insanely

Network mode problems after cm10 and sim switch

I'm using an infuse 4g with JB 4.2.1 cm ROM. I unlocked my phone and put in a T-Mobile prepaid sim.
I'm supposed to have 4g consistently but I'm getting 2g(edge), 3g(umts) and on very rare occasions I get 3g(HSDPA)... Its approximately 70%-%20-%10, respectively. And these changes are all happening in the same household. No tower switching.
I only have the option to switch on 2g only in my network mode settings on cm10... APN settings are correct and all T-Mobile can say is that I won't get 4g if the tower doesn't support it..
Are there any possible solutions to obtain 4g at all?
If so, how do I keep it on all the time?
Do I need to install a new modem?
If so, which?
Any comments and/or answers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Using Uckl2 at the moment. FYI.
Also, I know the modem is for WiFi but does it affect carrier data? If not what can I change to affect my data connection?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I always thought the opposite. I thought modems were only for mobile data. But does switching modems help?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Could increase or decrease your signal and rate at which data is downloaded and uploaded depending on your modem of choice. Battery life is also affected minimally (usually).
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Hmm, didn't know that... Well thanks for the lesson but have you tried switching modems?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I switched through a couple and uckl2 seems pretty stable but no change on carrier network service.. I want to put on kl3 but I can't find the download.. Not too many options for my phone though.. That I know of.

It might just be your location.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Since I changed to cm10 and switched to T-Mobile sim I have yet to have 4g. Tried where I'm at now and up to 70 miles from here... Very weird. I can't tell if its T-Mobile or the ROM.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Have you had it before on the same phone? Have you tried using another 4g phone?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I had 4g on it before, on att and on metro. Both while using stock Froyo rom and GB aeon rom.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Weird, it sounds like its the network then
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Yeah that's what I'm thinking but when I called T-Mobile, they said that they cannot diagnose a non-tmobile phone. The only info that they can give me is that they assume its my location and possibly the modem but they cannot guarantee switching modems will work. Doubt they hack phones though, Lol
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
from my recollection..not from experience:
T-mobile or networks other than AT&T will only give you: edge or 3g.
No 4g or hpsa+
to get better than 3g, you need to be on AT&T
When the phone is on "H" I ran a speed test and its pushing 5 to 7 mb download speed. Is that close to 4g?
Any advice on how to stabilize the network?

yup.. 2-6mps for most.
if you are in an urban area and close to a tower, some are reporting 8+
look back in the old threads..i recalled these discussed toward the beginning of device release..jun jul aug 2011 era
Appreciate it, thanks!
