I'm new to the forums. For some time now I have used Straight Talk for a carrier using AT&T and T-Mobile phones with sim cards and have always setup my and others APN's without any issues. About a year ago I purchased a Doogee Voyager DG300, which from my understanding is a clone phone, from China. These phones have no carriers and come unlocked. The Voyager has version 4.2 on it and it worked great, until a blemish in center of the screen, almost like a ripple appeared from spending to much time in my front pocket. I recently upgraded to the Doogee Hitman DG850, it has version 4.4 0n it. Very nice phone. I can send and receive calls as well as send and receive texts, including MMS, without any issues. My issue is I can not get data on this phone beyond 2G. I've tried every APN variation possible including switching sim cards. I have checked the frequencies in my area versus the specs on the phone and every thing looks right. I have spent several hours with Straight Talk reps as well as an hour or so with a Google rep trying to resolve the issue. The phone works great on wifi, but the data responds like dialup. The Google rep advised me that even tho Doogee is not on the list of manufacturers for certified Android OS but checking the version I'm using he advised me it is a proper build version of KitKat. Can anyone help me?

Hello people,
Sorry my first post being a question and also the fact that this particular issue I am about to address is previously being discussed in this forum., but I have tried my best to resolve the issue before posting it here. Its been a week now, my phone (samsung fascinate i500) is locked due to too many pattern attempts. It is registered to Reliance (carrier) now, originally it was verizon. data was still not enabled so google account was not set, so cannot login using that too. have been searching for solution since a week now but the issue is still not resolved.
Phone details: carrier - reliance, non rooted, android version - 2.1, update 1, USB debugging - off (cannot enable now as it is locked) so cannot perform ABD, tried updating OS but unable to as the phone is not rooted. Tried factory restore also (5 times), not working. Visited local samsung service center , but the guys said they cannot help as this is a foreign handset. tried one click unlocker also. Please help. Is is getting very frustrating now.
Just want to ensure you people that this not a stolen phone, I bought it through ebay and I have the receipts.
totally at the mercy of this forum now.
Amazing to see that among almost 48 lakh registered members no one even bothered to reply. What a great forum,..BTW,.. my problem is solved,.. a local guy who didnt even knew that my phone was cdma cracked it. XDA developers ha??????? what exactly do u develop?? braindeads???

Hi guys, this is my first post to xda dev forums, but I hope the information here goes on to benefit anyone else that might be having this same problem.
I have a Sprint HTC One Max, and I refuse to pay for Sprint services at the current customer rate, or even slightly discounted rate while they are going through this merger/network restructure or whatever they're calling it now. I see my friends with T mobile and MetroPCS using their phones data with no issues, where as with Sprint, it switches between LTE and 3G so much that the data services wont work at all unless switching to 3g only which at these times the data is so slow, that it may as well not even work.
That said, why can't I take the phone that I just paid full retail for (no contract), and switch to a carrier that the phones hardware can support? They don't want to release the phones lock code, much less perform the sim unlock task without sending you to the international support group. I refuse to waste my time with these people and their workaround equipment (Airave), when I can just pay a smaller bill for semi-ok service somewhere else.
I have read over this topic front and back, and I'd like to think I know something about the differences with CDMA and GSM technologies, but this one has me stumped. I have successfully rooted the phone, but am unable to perform S-off task. Receive an error stating that rom has blocked attempts from firewater, or something of that nature... other instructions walk through renaming the HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk and HTCOMADM_SPCS.odex files, so that I could write new ones for the unlock attempt, but the root explorer (es file explorer) attempts to rename the file, but doesn't actually change the filename, and I'm unable to write the new files to copy them to the root directory., I've even gone as far as attempting a custom rom flash to the device, but that's not working either...
Understanding it wont flash a different rom, I dont know if it actually took the recovery firmware or not, or where to troubleshoot from here., and beg of someone for a little help. I know your time is of value, and would rather pay someone to help me do it myself, vs these "hole in the wall" unlocking places around here (da funk, TX). Yes, my phone has that much value to me, vs the metro PC's cheaply manufactured phones. I fully understand that this network isn't fully recommended for high end data users, but I'd rather get what I pay for, If most to all service providers in my area are that crappy anyways.
Can anyone help from here?

Hello, about a year ago I purchased my one m8 and everything worked fine until about a month ago when I started to notice that the mobile data was repetadily turning on and off. then about last week the calls stopped working, depending on which ROM I tried it would either ring forever and say call lost or it would say "cellular network unavailable" today I tried to get a new sim card from verizon and that did nothing, I desperately need help, please thanks in advance

I have had my unlocked SGH-i337 (AT&T) for a while and I love everything about it. The only problem is that I am on T-Mobile network and am therefore unable to take full advantage of the phone's capabilities (Wi-Fi calling, Visual Voicemail, and most importantly, being able to switch on voice and data roaming) ...
Not being able to have Voice and Data roaming is a huge hindrance because I am unable to take advantage of T-Mobile's free roaming and therefore lose reception when traveling outside of T-Mobile coverage area.
A friend recently gave me his old SGH-M919 that is T-Mobile branded, and therefore has access to the above-mentioned features. The only problem is that the body of the phone is pretty rough shape and the phone is running on Android 4.4.2 whereas mine is still in great condition and runs on 5.0.1
I was wondering if it would be advisable to swap the logic boards of the two phones to optimize form and function of the unit that I am to keep.
Please excuse my ignorance on this topic as I am a noob when it comes to these matters...I am just looking to get optimal performance out of my phone.
Thanks in adavance!!!

I have an Alcatel One Touch Fierce, originally T-Mobile, currently unlocked, stock ROM (4.2.2) rooted. It had no connection issues in the US or in Germany, but anywhere in Israel after boot it connects to the mobile network for only a fraction of a second, just long enough to receive a bunch of brand new notifications, and then it immediately drops the network and can't find it again. It does this both on a T-Mobile sim while roaming, and with a local sim.
I was unable to find any posts with similar issues for any handset, and I couldn't find a dedicated forum for my device to make a post. If I could get any help with this that would be amazing, thanks.

Hi, thank you for using XDA assist.
Looks like there is no dedicated forum for your device yet.
However there is a general forum for android here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help where you can get better help and support if you try to ask over there.
Good luck.
