GQ App (American Edition) - General Questions and Answers

Hey all,
Can anyone post me a recent edition of the US version of the GQ app, I'm in the UK but a US subscriber and I cannot get the damned thing. I get a bunch of subscriber perks but I don't want to wait until I'm back in the US to download the damned thing as it's months away.
If I search over here via the magazines tab it suggests I get the UK edition, in the past it used to be only via the amazon app but even then I couldn't get it to work!
Cheers

A pleading bump?

[Q] WP7 in India

Hi
i wish to buy a WP7. but can any existing user from India please confirm if paid and free apps can be bought from marketplace .....
Its the only thing stopping me and my friends from buying this phone....please reply
One of My friend has HD7 baught from abroad, It can't connect to market place. It says its not available in the region.
So NO you can't buy application from marketplace in india.
Well I can confirm that, the marketplace works. However I have not bought a paid app as yet. But have downloaded a ton of free apps from the Marketplace.
I have an unlocked ATT Samsung Focus BTW..

[question][at&t]

I would like to says thanks to clubtech for link to purchase unbranded 3G tab 7.0 plus. Also thanks to xda for our own section here.
Just got my tracking number, I super excited, but I know to be cautious with AT&T data. Has anyone tried popping their AT&T SIM into one of these. I currently have grandfathered unlimited smartphone ( not iphone ) data. Currently I have a Dell Streak 7 4G, and I havent gotten any notices/ had any problems. So Im -hoping- I can just pop in my AT&T SIM with voice and smartphone unlimited and I'll be good to go as this model Im expecting is unlocked. I would be uber stoked!
Anyone have any suggestions to be stealthy and avoid getting bagged?
anyone tried a similar setup in USA with this device?
.... just want to be "safe" as possible. Thank You guys, Im sure I wil be very active in the forums when my device gets running.

Would you mind sharing this link or post a reply to my post about it ?

sure, here: http://www.ipmart.com/main/product/Samsung,P6200,Galaxy,Tab,7,0,Plus,333168.php?prod=333168
enjoy.
Im hoping I'll go undetected by AT&T as there are still some 1st gen gtab users with voice and unlimited smartphone data , correct??
Thanks, coincidentally it's the same company I had found a couple of days ago. I even contacted them ( and they promptly replied to my questions ) asking a couple of questions.
Did u receive your tab yet ? What shipping method did U use ? Did you have any problem with custom , clearing it ? Did you have to pay any custom duty ? This was my bigger concern since the item is coming from Malaysia. In the past I've bought several things from China, Hong Kong and never had a custom problem. But never bought anything from Malaysia. This is copy of their correspondence :

As for AT&T, I do not live in the USA but I am there often. And I've always used a GoPhone SIM card. I even use it in the old Galaxy Tab 7 , that I bought from AT&T and promptly flashed with an European Rom, and unlocked , so I could use it as a phone. I buy Pay as you go data packages.

edit : I noticed that you just got your tracking number, so I guess you have not received the tab yet.

got mine.. used FedEx and it was here in 3 days.. No customs issues at all.
It will not work now t-mobile because the frequencies are not compatible. I am using mine on at&t and it works well as my area has 1900mhz coverage.
Fyi they are shipping the white model, not the black model as shown not their website.

3 days.. you lucky son of a gun.. j/k . I was thinking they might ship white, oh well I got a black carbon fiber skin that should take of that , so voice and data are working good on AT&T. I neeeeed this thing, groove ip and sipdroid on my dell streak 7 are flaky. what kind of download speeds you got clubtech? Im in hartford CT and in good areas, im getting 7-nearly 8 mpbs down on dell streak 7, normally around 4 or so.
mine just completed through customs whew had me nervous for a while.. im using DHL.
Hmmm, I'd love to get a white model. Thanks for the feedback, I'll order mine shortly. As you can see from the Ip mart reply they claim that they do not have the white model ........... I guess the guy answering the messages does not really know :

They are probably not aware of the color as it is being sent from a 3rd party. I definitely got the white version.. I wanted the black one but the white one will do as well.

[Q] Chinese tab 7.7 can i get it to UK Android?

I have a friend who has a Samsung Galaxy tab he bought in China. Unfortunately it does not have access to the Google Play Store and is littered with Chinese apps.
AM i able to get a UK version of Android running on this tab, is it easy to do and if so how? Also will that give him access to the playstore.
Also looking to get it unlocked to use on UK networks, what is the best and cheapest way to do this
Thanks in advance for any help offered

Use in the USA - How to order

The Moto X Play has a great battery and awesome camera stats - how will a USA resident be able to order this phone? Any advice?

You wont. I bet it will be released as a Driod Turbo 2 in the USA.
Wait a few weeks it might pop up on unofficial sellers on ebay etc.

You might be able to get it from a Canadian retailer?
Yes, I just didn't know if I would need to go through a proxy to be able to order it. And I didn't know what they would say about the "ship to" being American.
Droid Turbo 2 will be a higher end phone. Perhaps it will have the same form factor with the processor power of the X Style / X Pure, a big battery and wireless charging. Everything the X Pure should be but wrapped in a hideous Droid skin.
In the same boat, was looking online at how to order and then ship to the US. There are certain services where you can "rent" a canadian address and then they will forward your mail to you - but by the time you pay the set-up fee and the forwarding fee, it seems overly costly. I did also try to order directly through Telus, but they require a Canadian address to ship to.
Anyone have any other ideas?
Mexico and Brazil Moto X Play variants are the same as the Canadian (XT1563). So we just need to figure out how to get one from any of these countries. I'm coming up empty though.
Wait for it to turn up on Amazon Canada and then just ship it to the US as Amazon Canada do ship to the US by the looks of it.

Using this now in Brazil. Coming from the Verizon Note 3 and Nexus 7 2013 and I'll say it's a decent phone but hardly spectacular (the screen in particular) if you are used to USA flagship phones. However it's nice to have two sim slots and an fm radio which are features almost unheard of in the States. Lollipop 5.1.1 is nice too!
Is the 1563 exactly the same in Brazil, Mexico and Canada in regards to LTE bands supported? There is a "BR apps" package on my phone, presumably exclusive to Brazil but I'm wondering if this is otherwise exactly the same as any other 1563.

According to Motorola's site, it's exactly the same for LTE bands.
Who did you buy it from in Brazil?
just a heads up, The Canadian Bell Version is locked to Bell! I tried my Rogers Sim and it wouldn't work, so you'll have to buy a Canadian version, then pay to get it unlocked. It's only available through the carriers in Canada. You cannot buy a retail\unlocked version, they're all only available thought carriers and locked to that carrier.

Thats a bit crap innit. I think for once we are lucky in the UK. We get both the Style and Play unlocked and Carrier free.
It will turn up on Ebay or Amazon carrier free eventually but could be a bit of a wait.

Bought from a Motorola kiosk in a mall for 1499BRL, which is $428 USD approx. 32 gb edition. Incidentally I noticed they had already sold out of them when I passed by there yesterday.
Possibly regretting this purchase as LTE band 13 is not available for Verizon, but will be available on the US edition of the Style ("Moto X Pure Edition") coming this Fall. Argh. I definitely like having two sims in one phone however.
Aside note, the new 3rd gen Moto G has a version here in Brazil that sports live TV and an antenna that allows FM radio listening without earphones. Why the heck can't we have those things in the U.S.! I digress.
I know one of the Canadian retailers told me that they feel like people will soon buy it with the unlocking fee (50), unlock it so any carrier in the US can use it and resell for a high value on eBay. :/. I know there is a way as long as you can get someone to buy it for you located in Canada! If anyone was looking to get one- feel free to message me! Would love to help someone out =)
Normally unlock codes turn up on ebay for a few Pounds here in the UK. I unlocked my brothers M8 for £2.50 by buying an unlock code from an ebayer.
It was easy ... I emailed IMEI number to the seller ... he then gave me a code. I placed a sim card (none carrier) then phone prompted me to put the code. Once I entered th code ... voila my brother had an unlocked phone.

$50 to unlock a phone seems pretty steep. if motorola doesn't play any games, unlock codes can be had for cheap on ebay.
ok i am setting up to order from sasktel wireless in canada. I work in logistics and have my warehouse their set to receive any phone i buy. I am setting up an account with sasktel and i will be buying a phone from them first. it is locked to sasktel but unlock codes could be had. Anyone interested in getting a phone aswell from canada? 16gb versions only but have sd support
with shipping to the lower 48 states we are probably looking at around $500 to import the phone total. Let me know if anyone is interested i will see if i can set it up
Has anyone in the US got a Canadian moto x play and can confirm at it works on att or straight talk? Also just wondering how much would I be looking at paying for the moto x play to get it shipped to the US? Thanks

When that happens it's usually because they don't have the imei in there system. Call them and give it to them so they can setup everything. Happened to me on att with my LGG4 from overseas

3g version coming; will it work with non Samsung phones?

The 3G version of this watch is coming in the next 2 weeks or so, and I am unable to find anything about whether or not you can use it with a non samsung phone..
I know the "non 3G" version works with most modern Android phones, and I know it will work with my Nexus 6..
My question is, does any one know for certain if I can use the 3G version, when it comes out, with my Nexus 6, or will the 3G version only work with Samsung phones?
I'm going to call Samsung tomorrow and ask, but I trust the folks here on XDA to know alot more than someone on their CS line will
Thanks!
It works just as the Bluetooth version does with compatible other phones.
do you have a link to the owners manual for the 3G model?
thanks
will it be able to connect blue tooth . i am on cricket wireless so not sure if i can add it to my plan
Anyone hear on the tmobile version tmobile hasn't sent the email out or Twitter or anyone from tmo will confirm
supposedly, you can call in today and order it, and stores in my area,(chicagoland) all say they should have them to sell Monday
Finely found a store that had it after 3 stores I got it
I called at least 6 stores, and none had it in suburban chicago; a couple said they should have them Monday, but I played it safe and ordered over the phone from T-Mo
Free over night shipping, and, you get 20 days to decide if you want to return it, vs 14 days when you buy in store..
I can wait one more day, at this point!
Yea messed up my account tho they cancelled my gear s for some reason I didn't want to add the new s2 yet because my gear s is at samsung for repair and didn't know if I wanted to keep the service on the gear s or s2 yet also they still charge u 15 for a sim when there's not even a sim in the damn thing
Works with some voice connection issues on N6P with Verizon.
