[Q] Does it matter if I have a SK17a model? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I was just wondering if I will still be able to use some of these roms, I will be running at&t in USA.

What are you asking? You want to use these ROMS on a different phone? I don't think that would be practical due to hardware specifics.

You can use all of the devices roms. It is indifferent if you have an a-modell or a i-version

Because Motorola killed the phone. You will be stuck with stock Gingerbread roms or unoficial custom roms without hardware acceleration.
The phone has nice specs, it's a damn shame tho.
the atrix actual price is 220 euros and a new cm10 roms seems to have HW accel too with JB

They still have a lot of bugs and it's uncertain if devs can fix it.
Don't get me wrong, I love my phone, but I wouldn't recomend it, at least not till the devs make a 100% stable rom with decent battery life and HWA working. This would never happen with Samsung.
^^^^^^
Not correct. This would happen with any manufacturer, eve Samsung, all except Nexus devices. Do yourself a favour and buy a Nexus, that way you will have an updated software always.

There is ONLY ONE version of Atrix in existance. It might be called different in different regions, but it is still the same device.
Yes, you can install that ROM on an euro-Atrix, just like on any other Atrix.

unless you get the updated version of the atrix (like me). then you wont be able to install any custom rom because you can not unlock the bootloader.

Well yeah, I meant there are no hardware limitations based on a specific geographic region. Locked BL is a software limitation, and also has nothing to do with the device being american or european or whatever.

thats true, but if he is going to buy a new phone he will most likely get one with a locked bootloader.

We won't know until there are roms for the nexus and until the optimus boot loader is unlocked.

Wouldn't there need to be the addition of LTE connection code for the models with that capability? Seems like its not completely straight forward, but also not as extensive as the modifications that were required for some devices in the past.
The bootloader is a huge issue. From reading other LG blogs, LG doesn't unlock them and finding a work around hasn't been easy.

There's a chance we could use the Nexus Bootloader. It is risky though and could result in a brick. But yeah, there will need to be some LTE code.

While I'd be fine with HSPA+ as the top end data connection, I'd still like to have LTE, if these brilliant minds can add it in :silly: I'm guessing that if they can figure out the bootloader, then we can have what ever our devices will support.
Bootloader is unlocked, only a matter of time before devs start porting over roms from the nexus 4

Carrier IQ

So I switched back to my nandroid after coming from android revolution and the radio acting all wonky and was thinking of something. Does my stock rooted rom have carrier iq built in? And if so where can I find it to remove it? Curious to why we still haven't had a stock rooted debloated rom yet uploaded...oh well
There doesn't seem to be any insight on any specific Roms for us yet dedicated just to our device forum... Seems only option or the route people are taking this is to go to International forum and use them roms...
Hopefully this forum picks up on android dev soon.
Att has blown up huge already

I severely doubt it as it has no carrier to report to. T-Mobile is the one adding it to the software.

Noob question ?

Is that possible to put i9505g modem or radio into m919 and if yes can it receive and handle ota updates ?

I don't believe you can use modems for a different device. So no, I don't think it's possible to put it on your phone.

Any other Z2s on Tmobile?

Hey guys. So I'm new to the z2. I bought an unlocked D6503 off of eBay and it works great on with T-Mobile Sim, gets LTE no problems. I've been using it fine on T-Mobile on stock .314 and various stock based Roms, but I just read that T-Mobile might use a separate kernel. Could this be why I can't get reliable data on any non stock ROM?
Is anyone running any non-stock based ROM such as CM, AOKP, or PA on T-Mobile's network?

Yeah , U.S. Just tried CM11 and same darned thing. Says LTE but no data coming through, restart and data works. Then I use WiFi for a few mins and turn it off.... Right back to LTE symbol and no data coming through. This the most annoying problem ever. I feel like it has to be some kind of access point name or baseband issue.

I think for whatever reason, it won't connect to IP4 on Tmobile. The one that's set normally doesn't ever work unless I change the protocols to IPV6, or select the "Tmobile IPV6" APN. That has to be the issue causing data to not be able to hand-off from wifi when wifi is switched off, but question is why?
Used a Z2 on T-mobile for months without problems.

Thanks. Must be something on my end I guess. Did you happen to have flashed anything not stock or stock based on it while on Tmobile? Did it have any issues then? Mine works 100% normally on stock or stock based but has issues with the data described above on any AOSP, CM, PA whatever ROM. That's why I'm convinced it pretty can't be a hardware issue, or it would be screwing up on stock too. In theory...

Everything I used was stock based so you might have your answer there
