I want to use Oovoo, but since it doesn't support fascinate I can't use it. Is there a way to change the model info to Galaxy S 4G or else?
You could change the build.prop file but unless you know how I don't recommend it (and since you're asking I'd venture to say you probably shouldn't try)
But essentially you can change the ro.product.model and ro.product.manufacturer to = Galaxy S 4g / Samsung (I'm only guessing at the model tho. I don't actually know what model would be in the build prop for the galaxy s 4g.)

as title says i would like some phones that have the option of setting your own number on the SIM-Card as my SGS2 has the Unknown number glitch ( or whatever )
Phones that i've tried :
Samsung Monte S5620
Nokia E7 <--- probs smartphone
Nokia 6310 < --- old but no option
anyone got more phones that i could possibly borrow/ buy IRL ? would really appreciate
Thanks

Hey guys 4G Galaxy S II was released in AUS recently..
Info sheet here
My question is would the current custom ROMS available work on this phone ??
Tempted to buy it.. if not I may just play it safe for the next international Galaxy release..
Depends on how different it is.
If it has a different processor (like the I9100G for example), forget it. Obviously being 4G the modems will be different, if they work with current I9100/T firmware you might be able to use existing firmware with a 4G specific modem but we won't know until someone with a fair amount of technical aptitude actually gets one.
If it does need completely different firmware, I wouldn't be holding my breath for custom roms/kernels being created for it.
Edit to add - My advice; get an I9100 or an I9100T. Only network you'll be able to use it on at the moment in AU is Hell$tra.
At 1.5GHz, its probably a different processor, so it wont work. With LTE, it probably has a snapdragon processor compared to our Exynos.
Currently own a i9100 very happy with it.. I was afraid it wouldn't work.. had a gut feeling it wouldn't wanted some clarification is all.
Cheers guys.
hey everyone..
is there a possibility that i can make spoof the name of the s2 to some blackberry name by changing anything in the system data, so that my network carrier can identify my phone as a blackberry phone instead of the galaxy s2.... internet plans for blackberry are better than the other phones at my place...
once, i flashed a custom firmware of nokia c6 on my nokia n97 due to which my phone was identified as nokia c6 by my carrier...
so is there any similar way i can spoof the name for my s2....

What you are suggesting here is illegal and not something that XDA condones or allows threads on.
Hey I just recently get a hold of motorolla Atrix, I just want to know what is the difference between Motorola Atrix and Motorola Atrix 4G? Can I flash any Custom ROM here with those devices that I mentioned.
You should be able to easily determine the model by going to Settings, About Phone. I have an Atrix 4G:
- System version: 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US
- Model number: MB860
It has been asked many times and the answer remains the same: atrix and atrix 4G are one and the same, only name got changed for different geographic locations so yes you can install any rom from the dev-section.
Why is it so hard to search? Are people really that dumb or are they just plain lazy?

Hi, don't really know where to go with this.
A company I work for bought a huge shipment of miscellaneous gadgets from China for cheap and one of the items was for a AKAI Android Note with a model number of HD98+.
Looks like a Note, can't tell what "version" really. No pen. Seems to run well. Wanted to try it out - I am on a WIND plan with an old S3 - pull out my sim card and try and it wont connect to any towers just the "WIND Away" ones. I grab a friend who has an S5 I believe who is on ROGERS and it works just fine and I thought that was weird since Rogers and wind both use the WCDMA 2100 freq.
Anyways maybe it's locked, I don't know. Says its running Android 4.2.2 and when I plug it into the computer it's trying to load the MT65xx drivers. I would like to try to unlock it or root it or downgrade to 4.1.1 but I don't know where to even get the firmware. Searched for AKAI HD98+ and all I get are chinese sites butwont translate for me. Might be a real Android, it's fooling me. Want to see if I can get it to run on WIND. Don't really know where to start, if I even can. Tried the unlock code from the dialer and it did nothing.
SPECS:
AKAI HD98+
WCDMA 850/2100 GSM 850/900/1800/1900
