^Once you download and install the app, it'll ask you to input the USSD codes. So just manually input the codes for each of them (eg. To get the Widget for Balance, input *141# and so on..)

^Don't know about the free one, but the automatic update feature works fine for me in the paid version. Just put the widget to automatically update after X hours, or you can even change it to update after every call/SMS.

...because the developers haven't written it in the software... it doesn't remember settings on reboot
i was hoping the dev's would further develop this app, but it has been at 3.0.8 for months now... so i think it has been deserted.
does the job though...

Thank you for doing this! I have a stupid question, but I have to ask it, because I don't know how MarketAccess works.
Can you (or anybody) confirm that only the market is fooled? By this, I mean, I want to be sure that neither my telco nor the telco I'm spoofing will charge me for roaming and that any data I actually download while spoofing my location will still go through my normal APNs?
Thanks for your answer.
MarketAccess emulates SIM numeric of the chosen operator. My local provider APNs continue to work fine with no extra charges when I have T-Mobile emulated.
However, it may affect other applications which also depend on the SIM numeric. For example, the APN Settings dialog will start to show the APNs valid for the emulated provider (SIM numeric = MCC+MNC in the APN settings). To be on the safe side remove the APNs for the emulated provider or change the APN server to your local one, but with the MCC/MNC of the emulated provider.
In theory it may alert such application as WaveSecure and SIM Checker. But I have WaveSecure installed and it seems to live fine with the emulated SIM numeric. One user reported that SIM Checker also works fine.
If you feel paranoid, then just disable the GPRS/EDGE/3G using APNdroid or Toggle Data and buy/download the applications via WiFi. Once downloaded, restore your original SIM numeric and enable data transfer.
Thank you for your comprehensive answer!
SIM Checker dev here. I can confirm that there are no problems with MarketAccess, since the SIM numeric value is not used to determine if the SIM card has been changed.
ok i get what it does but what special apps do you need this to get?

You need MarketAccess to buy any application from Market in the countries where paid applications are not listed in the Market. Is that the answer you were looking for?
so being in the us there is really no need for it? or are there specific apps that can only be seen using this

Developers can choose where to distribute their applications. So we can guess that there are some apps limited to certain countries. I don't know of any specific examples.

Seems app uses old file. Try to enter your settings and choose this file again - it shold reload the xml from server. Or you can donload this file to your sd card and specify full path to it in settings.

[WIDGET][APP] Prepaid Manager

Hello everyone,
i am proud to announce "Prepaid Manager".
This App-Widget is a everyday tool to automate the process of checking your balance, minutes and data counters without sending multiple "boring" Sms to your Operator and waiting for the response you once setup your checking codes and on every Screen unlock your data is refreshed
Also something great is that you can make a picture of your Recharge Card and the App will write you down the Recharge code
Edit:
USSD code up and running so if you have to check your balance with USSD codes (*123#) then its working now!!!
And the best of it, it works for non-rooted Users!!!
Give it a try

Text message "invalid recipient" fix

I have been seeing a lot of people on various forums complain about when they try and send a text they get an invalid recipient message. You must be rooted to fix this. In Root Explorer go into the CUST folder. Inside will be a cmcc, dualcu, and hw folder. (Lost+Found & Preinstalled you don't have to worry about) Go into cmcc--->cn--->xml and delete the mms_config.xml file. Do the same for the dualcu and hw folders. Then restart your phone. You will not get the invalid recipient message any more.

Yes, it's not too big of a deal though as you can use another SMS app.
So I could get any SMS App from the Google Play Store? Another question... where's the best place to buy an X2 for use in the USA? I have read that if it says Honor on it then it's a Chinese version but that there is another version of the X2 for international and that is a "better" one for the USA. I don't know how to quote your previous post (I am kindof a Forum newbie). I got an email telling me that I had been quoted so I knew to come here. I wish I could figure out how to quote so you would get an email that I am back! Lol!

I don't think it matters which model you buy. You will not have LTE here in the U. S. The Chinese version has been out longer so it will probably have more development here on XDA. You can buy it on Gizok.com, on ebay or Amazon.

It has to do with the way the phone numbers are formatted here in the US. Huawei has something in the MMS_config file so that any other number format other than an international one won't send texts unless they send you a text first. Removing those files removes the format and lets you text any number without an issue.

Then just using another SMS app is not really a "fix"? The only way to really fix it is to do that complicated thing that was brought up earlier in this thread? When I was told to just use another SMS app I went on the Play Store to look for one. There are a LOT of them! Do you have any recommendations? Will using that app also allow me to get pictures via texts? I get a lot of them!

The problem doesn't happen with a third party sms app. It only happens with the default one. Textra is one of the best. It's fast and acts like the stock Google SMS. Yeah picture messages work fine with Textra.

Text "invalid recipient" work around
You wont need to be Rooted to use stock messaging app and yes invalid recipient is an issue to some. Its only a formatting issue just as if you had a device from your local area and used it in a foreign country you would need to correct dialing codes. The easiest fix is to save all contacts in International format exactly as shown +1(area code) ###-#### or just download a app called Twitch contact formatter from the P.S. Run the app it will find all numbers then select output to international format and done.
1. I recommend you access and export a backup of your original contacts from PC.
2. Then run downloaded app and sync contacts to your g account once again.
If contacts do not update in cloud delete address book in cloud and re-sync from phone.*****BACK UP FIRST*****

Thanks for this information! I am on TMobile right now and Textra is a mess on TMobile. Apparently, TMobile doesn't support third-party messaging apps... Textra has a TMobile "fix" in the Settings (but I have been testing it on a Note 3 and have had terrible trouble with it). So your solution might be what I need to do! Thanks!

Hi, aj, I even choose that TMobile "fix" in the Textra Settings and I had A LOT of instances of my texts not getting sent. Then a few would get sent at once hours later... I think you have answered my question which I called TMobile about and they couldn't answer... Even though I am in a TMobile "black hole" - always on E (Edge) with no phone network available for Internet and phone calls are even in-and-out... My texting on the TMobile messaging app and on home WiFi works just fine... I questioned TMobile and they said it was probably the interaction between Textra and TMobile... Now I am sure that it has to do with the terrible TMobile service here, instead... I am giving TMobile until December 1 to fix this situation. The local TMobile store (less than 2 miles from my house and right in the middle of this dead zone) told me that they're in the process of putting the nTelos towers they bought online with the existing towers and they said service would be a whole lot better. Otherwise, I am off to AT&T, I guess...

You should be able to walk into a TMobile store and ask them to give you a signal booster. Do you get good coverage outside your house or is the coverage bad in your entire neighborhood? If the whole area is bad then the booster will do you no good though. Downstairs in my house the signal is not so great so they gave me a signal booster. I put one of them upstairs near a window and the second one downstairs and I get a great signal downstairs now.

I tested it and the signal is 4G LTE at about 2 miles away on one road entrance to downtown. All of downtown is E - including the TMobile office! Then it is hard to say... Rural areas that I rarely go into are on other sides so I haven't gone many miles into them to test it out... The northern part of our city is about 20 miles away. I go there and service is great. There are rural areas between us and the northern, developed part. I would say west of us (pretty rural) is bad almost starting at the sign which says "Welcome to Suffolk" about 30 miles away... In land area we are a big city. Old timey divided into little old towns. I am in the old downtown. I looked at the TMobile website and read about the signal booster and was excited until I read further and realized that it would not help... I had excellent service on Verizon... But CDMA was no longer an option when I decided to try the X2! I had no idea TMobile was so bad in my area. Especially since they opened a store less than 2 miles away! Lol!

I have downloaded Twitch and read everything that I can about it on Google. I am not sure how to do backups. I go to Contacts and in the Menu there's an option to Export to sdcard. Is that what you mean? I have never backed up to pc and don't know how... Am I doing a backup just in case Twitch screws something up? To be honest, I am a bit OCD and the uniformity of how Twitch re-formats my phone numbers is very appealing to me. I wouldn't mind having my numbers formatted that way permanently. Would I still have to do a backup in that case? Does having the phone numbers formatted this way allow you to use the stock text messaging app (I'm assuming it is because it's already on my X2) instead of Textra? I LOVE Textra but for the time I am still on TMobile I cannot use it because of the terrible TMobile service in my area... Thanks for your time!

To be honest, I am a bit OCD and the uniformity of how Twitch re-formats my phone numbers is very appealing to me. I wouldn't mind having my numbers formatted that way permanently. Would I still have to do a backup in that case? Does having the phone numbers formatted this way allow you to use the stock text messaging app (I'm assuming it is because it's already on my X2) instead of Textra? I LOVE Textra but for the time I am still on TMobile I cannot use it because of the terrible TMobile service in my area... Thanks for your time!

P. S. Does clicking on that sdcard-looking icon on Twitch re-format the contacts? Thanks!

Update: I just did Contacts Menu on my Note 3 and cannot find the option to Export to sdcard so I guess that's not possible on my Note 3? I am going to Google it some more...

Hello,
You can try using the stock app but if your always on EDGE your phone will not preform as intended when EDGE was industry standard anything over 4 MEGA Pixel photos wasnt even a thought. At minimum you need to be on 3G or HSPA+ which is what Tmobile uses. Check your APN settings Google this ---> apn-settings.com/t-mobile-apn-settings-step-by-step-configuration/
Not sure if the new Tmobile 4G extender will work since the radio in the Mediapad X2 does not even support US 4g networks. At this point I suggest trying stock app if that doesn't work its time to switch carriers. I had to switch and never looked back I live in the city and in my dead zone only ATT worked for me. If you don't want to go threw the activation process just find a friend with ATT and invite them to your house check if they have good signal.
When you backup your original contacts I do mean EXPORT as shown here Google this ---> support.google.com/mail/answer/24911?hl=en
Twitch hasn't erased any of my contacts I only recommend export/backup as a standard with any personal info... Being victim of three hard drive failure in my PC and did I mention they where all in a row. Twitch does have the ability to return your contacts to original format.
As for you formatting they will always need to be set as International prefix in order to use stock messaging app. It works very good for me.
I am not sure about your last question about the SD looking icon? When you launch the app on the top right it should recognize your county format with a flag and to the right of that you have another drop down option select International prefix. At the bottom right of your screen select save and you should be done.

The sdcard icon is next to Save Selected. I just noticed that all of my contacts have a checkmark to the left. I am thinking they are all selected so that is what I will choose. Thanks for all that explanation about Edge. I am giving them until December 1 to upgrade these towers they said they bought... Then I am off to Cricket or AT&T... Thanks also for the Google link to help with the Contacts backup! That should work! I just want to thank everyone for the extra mile they go to with explanations for the clueless (me) lol!
