TCL / Alcatel idol x keeps going into roaming mode - Alcatel Idol X Questions & Answers

Hi
I have a tcl idol x with an Italian alcatel idol x ROM installed (android 4.2.2). The ROM seems to be okay, but my phone keeps saying im roaming, with a little R above the signal bars. Even if i disable roaming, it enables itself.
I do not know much about network and sim card related stuff so any help would be great, im based in the uk and on t-mobile or EE, thanks

Going Back to desire HD?! Custom roms on Telus?

Long story short, I had the uk desire HD and loved it. My only complaint was the washed out photos and 2g service...(rogers)
But now Telus has launched their new hspa network in winnipeg.... so I could have it again in its full glory.....
I am on my phone right now (2g) so I can't research much...
How are the latest roms and kernels?
Any gingerbread ports yet?
Thx in advance

The Telus device appears to have different audio chipset, so current custom ROM's are resulting in the loss of sound to your device, which being a phone is currently a bit of a show stopper bug

whoa, this is horrible news.... and lame all at the same time.... so no one has a telus device, working properly? Sounds like a simple driver tweak, but I am no developer....
I was about to flash my dhd tonight, and it was one of the main reasons I picked it over the iphone 4..... this could be a short lived purchase.
Also, is it ALL sound? The handset won't even work? /cries
If you look through the "no sound" thread you will see a fellow member wrote a new kernel allowing you to use different roms. Im about to try revolution hd myself right now.
Is that you kakarot from Redflag? you and your phones
Or if you want to stick with stock for now without any other kernels, you can downgrade using the "downgrade from 1.8x/1.72" thread and make a gold card and go to town. Then search for the "randroid" telus rooted 1.84 rom.
ahahha, yes it is me.... lol, my phone issue is getting much worse it seems... as I now have 2 nice phones on 2 different companies....
are they "specific" roms only that have this fix? any links appreciated. thx again....
I am not a big fan of stock, I like to root/unlock/flash/custom/kernels... I had the desire hd uk version, but got tired of 2g.... thought I would do the telus one because of the new hspa network (which so far, the upload is amazing, but download is pretty darn average).
I think I will pm u
search for the "raidroid telus rom" and use that one for now. You can use the revolution rom and use the Telus kernel.
Trust me, it works with either of them. Until the source gets released (prob next week) thats all we have for now (which is quite a bit for a new phone)
Im rooted and unlocked on Rogers.
Yea, Thx. I tried it but the sound was horrible....so now I am on the stock one.... I need more flashing, Hahaha..... I'm on tells but my rogers works as well.

any help is greatly appreciated!

[Q] Would you recomend Motorola Pro?

Hi, I'm thinking on buying pro.
I'm between Defy, and Pro.
Also i saw Atrix, but seems little far out of my legue.
Please tell me the reason why you bought it.
The only thing i found as dissadvantage is the small keyboard.

As a very recently new Pro owner, I bought it mainly for the keyboard. I'm tired of seeing every phone as a 4+ inch slab. Too big, and not enough utility for my taste.
I came from the Droid Eris.... a decent phone, but slow... and I grew tired of the soft keyboard. I'm already much faster typing on the Pro's keyboard than I ever was on the Eris.
Can you use the same roms on Pro's from different countries from Europe and Latinamerica? Is it all the same?

You wont go wrong with the droid pro,I have had mine almost a year now and Im running jackpotclavins version of CM7 and I love it,got my tether,got my fast internet and my keyboard,this is a great device!

if you need GSM frequencies, this phone is terrible. you will lose network and connectivity like anything. I've been using it for over 9 months in India. and its *terrible*
No, its not a network problem.

Did you buy your Pro in India or somewhere else? My understanding is that they make radio firmwares for every operator on every country and that they are all diferent. The droid pro can be terrible in europe but the motorola pro is probably grea there.

[Q] Force 3G after MJE update

Hi guys,
a question,
how do we force the phone in CDMA rather than LTE after this update?
Before the Update in MJ7, I can use the app :4G Toggle (used call Phone Info) to toggle to force in CDMA, but after the update, that app is not working. So Now I have to stay with Global mode or LTE/CDMA/EvDO
The thing is... the reception here in OFFICE is SUPER lousy. so my phone will have very slow and bad 4G signal , unless it is switched (forced into CDMA, which is much faster)
Please help. Now it stayed in 4G so the battery is running faster too, because it is a struggling 4G.
I want a stable 3G than a struggling 4G
Please help
Thanks!

god really there is no one in QnA forum.
Why can't we post QnA into General!!!!!!!
An app from Google play called tellnfo is just like the phone info app. It will do what you want.
Galaxy Note 3, HTC Rezound, HTC Evo 3D, HTC Evo, HTC Touch Pro 2, LG Voyager
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tapbase.LTEswitcher
Just tested it and it works for me.
On the mje base.

Thanks. Are you rooted ? It still does not work and giving me an error message : this app is incompatible with your phone . Please uninstall. Mine is pure stock Verizon galaxy note 3.... not rooted.

Thanks.
I am afraid that certain access will require root privilege after this MJE update. This is the major change of access rights that disabled all similar apps from working.
If the apps you mentioned work for you, others should work too because of the rooted status.
probably I need to go back tonight to use Kingo finally...

no sim card can not use wifi

Hello ,
ive flashed the pixel 8.01 i believe rom a while ago , very buggy not happy with it about to flash havoc OS9 when it finished downloading.
Q i pull my sim to put into my other phone alot , when i do this my moto g 5s plus will not let me use wifi at all. I know i can hack it to allow this i just dont know what to do can someone point me to a tut or post that has the instructions so i can get this done? this phone is utterly useless to me. I work in a metal box, i only have an old 3g booster with hspa plus my old note 3 hot spots way faster than the moto so i use the note 3 to hotspot but i then cant use my moto cause the wifi wont bloody turn on cause theres no bloody sim card.

yea that was super helpful , i searched and this is where XDA phone search dropped me , so maybe these two devices are super close together, if there is a S forum a link or a move would have been more helpful
*bump*
same problem , where do i go in this phone to fix it ? mysql database mod ? edit some lines somewhere ???? im pretty sure these two devices are close enough that a general idea would put me close enough to figure it out ,
