    Post Still worth buying in late 2017 ?

    I bought and Android yogabook 6 weeks ago and am very happy with it. I have just installed the OTA Nougat update. I had issues that required me to reformat my SD card otherwise it got stuck in a boot loop, but all is OK now

    Post [APP][Xposed mod] SIM Number Changer - change the number registered in your SIM card

    Not working in S4 i9505 Not a complaint at all, but I thought I would try this in my UK i9505 and it didn't work - shame, but never mind. It is a small annoyance and no more

    Post Charging + TOMTOM = Problem

    I agree 100% - I bought a cheap charger from eBay, but it would not charge the phone when using TomTom - and barely hold the charge when playing MP3s. I replaced witha genuine HTC charger and everything is fine

    Post vario 3

    You'll get many answers to this one, all different ;) It all depends what you would use it for; I got the vario3 because it had High speed internet and built-in GPS. If you're looking for a workhorse that can be used to connect your laptop to the internet, then its worth considering. If you...

    Post Internet Sharing and O2-UK unlimited web browsing plan

    Just read the smallprint in the O2 contract. There will be a "fair use" policy which will probably give indicative usage limits. I use my T-Mobile Vario III on the move all the time to hook up my laptop and have never had any issues from T-Mob.

    Post o2 vs t-mobile

    Can't argue there - without coverage, what matter the contract deal. Personally I have great T-Mobile coverage, which is why I swapped from O2. If your coverage from T-Mobile is OK, then the deal looks great

    Chalk up another happy customer :) - yes I could be happier :D, but overall satisfied with my Kaiser. Sure it has its problems, but overall, it is fit for MY purpose.

    Post GPS without 3G/edge?

    GPS does not cost money because it doesn't uses GPRS/EDGES etc - unless you install and run QuickGPS (or similar). GPS is only receiving freely available satellite info QuickGPS is a service that helps the GPS unit get its first fix quicker and this uses the internet and hence GPRS/EDGE - but...

    Post T-Mobile UK upgrade cost....

    It would be worth ringing T-Mobile and asking to end the contract; I'm sure they'll be more flexible in the upgrade cost once they realise they are about to lose a customer

    Post GPS Issue: Loss of satellites -> Softreset necessary?

    I have experienced the same thing once - and that was after using the Kaiser in a jet for only a few minutes. Once I landed, I started TomTom and was placed over 700 miles from my actual position. A soft rest cured it; I was a bit worried that the high speeds of a jet might have confused/fried...

    Post What does A-GPS cost?

    Assisted GPS or A-GPS uses the mobile phone network to assist the GPS receiver in the mobile phone to overcome the problems associated with TTFF (time to first fix) and the low signal levels that are encountered under some situations. For A-GPS, the network provides the Ephemeris data to the...

    Well good luck to you - I hope you find what you are looking for. The Mac is a nice platform but too "cutesy" me though. I am happy to browse at 1.8Mbit/s on my TyTnII rather than the paltry speeds available on the iPhone. But each to their own

    Post Is it worth it???

    Unless there's pressing need, I would agree with you. I have had several HTC phones & re-flashed them all except for my T-Mobile MDA Vario III. I'm not too worried about bricking the phone, but can't see enough benefit in the new ROMs.

    Post Can't get stereo bluetooth on Kaiser

    I have just discoverd the same issue with my Plantronics bluetooth Stero Headset i.e. sound only in one earpiece. This occurs when using "Audible Player" (I don't know what happens with other audio programs). But TomTom Navigator gives me crystal clear Stereo output!! confusing eh?

    Post T-Mobile - deceptive advertising

    If you are concerned about whether HSDPA is enabled on your HSDPA capable phone, I would 1st ring customer services and ask whether HSDPA is enabled or not. If it is not enabled, and they refuse to enable it, then ask to speak to a supervisor nabout it. Explain the situation regrading the...

    Post hsdpa - how to get in to work on mew T mobile kaiser?

    I totally agree with the sentiment here, if you only use your phone for email & browsing, the WNW is probably good enough. I pay for WNWplus because I connect my laptop to the phone & benefit from HSDPA where available. However the price difference between equivalent WNW & WNWplus packages is...

    I used the service offered by tupisdin - not necessarily the cheapest, but the money is in the form of a donation to xda-developers not to tupisdin personally. I got the code after a few hours and am now unlocked. Next step - get a Dual SIM adapter
