On my old wildfire s it had a pre-installed app from orange called signal boost, which allows me to make calls and texts through WiFi, using my number and contract. As I live in the country side I only get signal if I leave my phone by the window. I would like to know if it's possible to run that app on my nexus 4 and I no longer have my wildfire s so don't have access to the apk unfortunately.

My AT&T Aria is working (using orange.fr sim) internationally here in France with the following oddities:
- sim carrier selector app always crashes
- no 3G ever, just Edge
- gps and edge interfere so only one can be on at a time
Maps as u can imagine is a bit crippled. Everything else works ok. Love using SIPdroid to call home

I tried to get answers from T-Mobile's forum to no avail so I will post here.
I was driving between Milwaukee and Green Bay a couple of weeks ago and lost all service on my phone. When I got back I looked at T-Mobile's coverage map and they had the area listed as roaming on their "partner network". Presumably my phone should have been able to make/receive calls on this network but was not.
I had my settings correct with Data Roaming enabled and whatnot so I can't figure out why I couldn't get on the roaming network.
Some background - I've rooted the phone and am using Enom's pre-Christmas ROM release with the associated kernel that comes with it.
Any help on this?
I know data wouldn't work on any net but tmob, voice should work for sure if u were sim unlocked

I recently bought a Simple Mobile sim card and had trouble from the start with no data at all and no picture messaging. However after downloading HTC's Connection Setup app I was able to send and receive picture messaging and access the EDGE network, at the time I figured that I must not be in range of 3g and that that would come later. However, my phone has been unable to connect to 3g since day one and when I pop my sim card into my old android phone it connects to 3g with no problem. What can I do to resolve this?

What Trophy are you using, Verizon's or "other" (meaning any Trophy other then Verzion's). Verizon's Trophy might not support the band that Simple Mobile's HSPA+ is running on?
Hi everyone-
I have a nexus 7 hspa and am posting because I am getting ready to travel with it and want have fun but be safe.
1. I use the voip feature with a paid version of grooveip and am trialling it as my primary phone. I purchased the hspa version because I didnt want to rely on being near accessible wifi to make a call. Currently when I am within wifi range, it works great, although there is not the spontaneity associated with walking around talking on a phone.. I recently activated a $30 tmobile data plan and am somewhat confused. Will grooveip automatically check for both data and wifi and move to whatever is available? When I activated the $30 dollar service I got a telephone number that I have added to google voice, yet all calls seem to keep going through my old google voice number. What am I missing?
2.I have security concerns about walking around with a gps signal open and plan to travel with both data and wifi off unless I need them. Can the n7 be tracked even when I turn off the wifi, location and data plan services? With a cellphone, if I had these concerns I would simply pull out the battery, that is not possible with this device.
3. I will be using a lot of public wifi. Is there a vpn app that will automatically engage when grooveip is enabled or will it always be a two-step process of opening the vpn then opening grooveip to flow through it?
3. How does this scenario change if I am in europe? I plan to get a european micro-sim when traveling.
Thanks for any info you can offer.
First off the N7 will not work on T-Mobile's $30/mo plan. T-Mobile is blocking the N7 IMEI's. Secondly yes when you go out of range of wifi grooveip will switch to the HSPA connection.

The topic says it, I dont want to recieve calls and texts, but want to be able to use the data. Is that possible?
Call blocker apps simply declines calls, I dont want that.
What I want is airplane mode, with data on.
I am on Canadian Wind operator which uses AWS band.
