    Root [Sprint/Cricket] The Cricket S3 and Google Wallet.

    Has anyone been able to get Google Wallet working on a Cricket S3? I've read that I could either install a "patched" APK or edit the build.prop file to reflect a different device or carrier. I'm posting this here because I assume, from the above methods, that I'd need to have the S3 rooted to...

    Google Wallet and Cricket.

    I'm thinking about moving to Cricket since I'm in an area where they have LTE. I know a couple of the phones Cricket carries now are NFC-equipped. My question is: I recall reading somewhere (forget where) that Cricket does not allow Google Wallet to be used on their phones. Is this the case? If...

    Dock Question

    This is really just curiosity gnawing at me.... I've had my TF300T for about 2 weeks. When I bought it, I got it from a Best Buy out of town. The dock they had said on the package that it was for the 200 and 700. I did wait to get the TF300 specific dock, because I remembered my local BB had...

    Root Questions in light of the update...

    My EVO V is rooted, unlocked, but is still S-ON. I'm able to install a few ROMs like Mobs stuff and Harmonia (what I currently run, 3.16). I'd like to be able to do more. I know I need to S-OFF, but I have a few questions. I know I need the stock ROM to get S-OFF, so installing that...

    Porting my number from VMUSA

    So, in light of the announcement today, my wife and I decided we wanted to move to the Nexus 4. After a bit of research, I think that SimpleMobile would be the best choice for us. Don't get me wrong. If I could get a Nexus 4 and stay on VMUSA, I would. We both love the service we've gotten over...

    Help Can't send or receive SMS...

    As of right now, I have not been able to send or receive any text messages of the last few days. The only thing that have changed over the last week or so is that I installed HDR Camera+ and updated the Visual Voicemail app. Since my wife is on VM as well, and she can receive texts from...

    The Freebies I got with my Nexus 7 (Books, Music, etc.)

    So, we know we get this: $25 Play Store credit Transformers: Dark of the Moon However, I found out that we, as Nexus 7 owners, get some other stuff. Basically, it looks like a "Starter Pack" for Books, Magazines, and Music. In another thread, Markg said he didn't get Wallet or Music because...

    HTC Watch app (HTC's video player)

    So, I was digging through all the various apps and came across Watch. Apparently this is HTC's video player and store all-in-one. Well, to my surprise, there was actually a video there. It showed The Green Hornet. I figured HTC was just trying to sell me a movie I didn't want, then I noticed...

    Help with the ADW Dock?

    I got ADW EX during the 10 cent sale. I've been trying to get it configured on my Dell Streak 7. Only thing is, I primarily use my tablet in landscape orientation. The dock always wants to lock itself on the right side of the screen and is at the bottom if I switch to portrait. Ideally, I'd...

    Root So, yeah, Netflix.....

    So, I was using one of the "No Update" versions of Netflix from XDA. 1.2.2 was working great. 2 days ago, I noticed that it was forcing me to update before watching. Now the latest from the Market has awful sync issues. Like I'll be halfway into the audio for the next scene before I even see...

    Root Superuser not working after update

    So, I realized I hadn't installed Root Explorer and was about to when I noticed that SU had just updated. Figured "No worries", right? Well, after installing Root Explorer, I get a blank screen and it tells me to restart the app. None of my other apps that require root are working now...

    Help Flashing the M835 from MetroPCS to Cricket

    Note: This is just a QnD copy-and-paste from my thread at the cricketusers.com forums. So, if some of these threads don't line up to what we have here, that's why. Just as the title says, I'd like to flash my M835 over to Cricket. I've spent the last several days just hunting down the right...
