i am just wonering if it is possible to upgrade the gt-p7510 to 3G and install a sim card. I have seen a few posts on other websites about this but wanted to know if anyone has had any luck? I have one laying around and love to tinker with stuff. They sell the Sim flex slots on ebay and there is even a video on how to install it. but i was wondering if i could actually do it and if so what would have to be changed out..thanks for your help

Hello everyone, I recently purchased an Atrix off CL to use with the new straight talk BYOD plan. I know I can find a cheap laptop dock off CL or ebay or what not and I know it's limitations but my question is:
Since I have to change the data settings and all that, will the dock work without it knowing it has to tether or however it acts when connect to do the dock? I don't know the behavior of the dock fully or what it asks and I haven't seen anyone ask a question just like this. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

When you conect to the lapdock it checks for data plan (assuming your wifi is off)
If your wifi is on however it just starts normally and you can browse and do whatever you want.(on wifi only)
There is a way to get it to work with cellular data without having to get a bigger data plan but I haven't personally tried this method but I'll send you the link.
As for buying the lapdock heres a good site to go to :
try this site all4cellular they have refurbished lapdocks for $100 and new ones for retail price.I bought a refurb and its got no issues

Thanks a lot, that's a much easier way to get around it than I found.
Also, thanks for the site too, the refurbs are up to 130 there which is about the same I saw on ebay. Have a good day!

Question. I have a friend looking to get a cheap android phone to run a couple apps on a pre-paid network (sprint compatable one called kroger iwireless).
I saw two of them that they sell, but they are running Android 2 and im not sure the apps she wants would run on them. Is there a better phone that we are missing out there that she could use, or a better one thats become cheap enough that can be converted? Or does anyone have better ideas?
Shes trying to do this on the cheap.
I have searched eBay and Google with various searches but have found nothing. My g3 Sim card readers pins have been damaged and I was wondering if anyone knew of a place to buy a lot for repair. I can find replacement parts for many other phones but not the g3. Anyone have a link or know how to obtain this part? Or maybe even how to fix it? I got the phone very cheap to use as a media device but if I can fix it I would use it. Thanks a lot.
Probably need a whole new motherboard
OP, did you get your phone repaired? If so, where and how much was it?
Hi all.
After using the Standard One X for the last couple of years, I came across the deal of a lifetime on a mint One X+ from a person i know well, so I know it's not too good to be true etc etc....but it's sim locked.
Does anyone know the most reliable and trustworthy place, preferably in the UK to get it Sim unlocked online, for a nice cheap price, before I root it etc and install custom ROM?
Any help will be very much appreciated.:good:
cheers

Hi all,
Has anybody ever tried upgrading the SGP611 with a SIM card reader ?
Both the reader and the tray are available as replacement parts so I was wondering if anybody ever tried a WIFI-only model to LTE ?
Curious to know ...
Never opened mine up for obvious reasons, so I don't know what's going on inside. I know sometimes the manufacturer creates one motherboard with the same hardware layout but just ships the cheaper versions with some of the hardware disabled, but physically still on the board. Not sure if that's the case here.
