I will google this but I'm a beginner to phone software and hardware. What do you mean exactly?

I have an unlocked HTC Vivid but the screen broke a while ago, I replaced it but I've had to replace the screen several times because after a while the screen would start to go- not responding to touch or acting like I'm touching it when I'm not. Thats another subject. If anyone is interested I...

Ok. I guess I understood what I read wrong. I thought it was more of a software than a hardware thing. So theres no way rooting my phone could improve my data connection?

Hi, So I've done a bit of research and can't find too much on this subject. I did see one mention of downloading a new frequency bandwidth was it? Bare with me, I'm kinda new to phone technology. I've been able to root my droid, now I have an HTC Vivid as my primary phone. The issue is that...

Ok. Ill look into that. Thanks. Im also eyeballing the htc one. I can find a few in my budget and they have great reviews but Im not sure about it. Ill take a look at the nexus.

So I bought a droid 2 to get myself introduced to android. I didnt really like the phone itself because of multiple flaws but I managed to root and unlock it with some help. I do like the android os and what I can do with it. I'm about to choose a new GSM phone and would like an android. Ive...

I think the gophone sim is not working. it said it did not exist on at&ts site. the boost mobile might be the same as it is very old. I will try it will an activated sim card eventually. That may work. I tried the "offline sim apn data" app and have an idea of how to use it. ill try that...

Ok. So I did that and theres no service. This is an old sim card but shouldnt it give me the option to activate it? This is just the only way of me telling that this process worked and my phone is fully unlocked. Or are you sure that it would work now?

So I went through everything and it appeared as it went smoothly. Theres a blue triangle now in the top of my phone- thats different- and the "verizon wireless" written when i pull that part down isnt there. However, even with the go phone sim in there I still get a Verizon robot, and my apn...

The youtube account is the same one as the icon you have. But yeah Im really having trouble with this. What I understand is 1. Backup phone files through bootstrap after rooting 2. -- 3. then flash 2.4.330 sbf with rsd lite which I installed on my computer but after following the link to...

Ok. Im assuming it was your video I followed to root my phone in the first place. I thank you for the info too, it was very clear and easy to follow. Now I just need to make sense of these instructions. They seem a bit overwhelming as I am still learning terms.

Im glad I looked into this first rather than used that sbf. Thanks. Lemme try this out. Since the phone is already flashed and rooted can I skip to 6? Or do I have to do it all over again?

Im very new to all this and am learning terms still. I did get the wifi working though. Thanks. I do have another question in another post. Has to do with the SBF I suppose. The system version is through verizon. I gotta figure out how to get off verizon and to whatever network I like to get the...

I was able to get an unlock code for my Droid 2 Global and then inserted an At&t gophone sim card. I tried making a call and I got a verizon robot. It is switched to GSM. I tried a boost mobile sim card too. Nothing. What more do I need to do? ----- I did some research. I have the app that...

So I rooted my droid 2 global successfully using this https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gt5ufld_fajqA0fqRK_ed3sB_-PWtF82vLsXce5BTnE/edit?pli=1 Upon trying to connect to my wifi it would not connect. It would attempt to but disconnect, repeatedly. Anyone know whats going on? The wifi worked...
