What phone to purchase and HTC One

I have 2 questions. My wife is due for an upgrade and has been shopping phones. What is your suggested phone to purchase? Also, when will the HTC One be available through Verizon, has anyone heard? Thanks for your assistance!

Rick,
I don't have any idea about the HTC One, but I wanted to maybe chat about your second question in regards to which phone for your wife.
I assume since you are posting in the Android section and also asking about the HTC One, you are leaning towards a droid versus apple product for your wife as well. But if not, then obviosly the first question for her is would she want a droid phone or an iPhone 4, 4s or 5...
Assuming droid, then IMO the next question is does she want one of the larger screen phones (Samsung Galaxy s3 or s4, or Moto Droid Raxr hd for example) or would prefer a smaller device.
If she wants a slightly smaller device, I personally HIGHLY recommend the Droid Razr M. Got this very phone for my wife about a month ago and she loves it. Basically the same phone as the larger droid Razr HD and HD Maxx, with the notable exceptions being it has 8GB memory vs 16gb (HD) or 32 (HD Maxx) and it does has a slightly smaller battery than hd (and dramatically smaller than hd maxx, but so does every phone ha ha). As a side note, you can add a cheap micro sd card to all 3 razr's so somewhat makes the phone storage a lesser issue
Beyond that it is a great phone. small, light weight BUT 4.3 inch beautiful screen. She loves it. It is not a super small phone, just a smaller phone (if that makes sense). it is also free with 2 yr agreement
If she is interested in one of the others listed above, really there are (IMO) at this time 4 to think about:
Droid Razr HD ($50 at verizon now)
Droid Razr HD Maxx ($149 at verizon, same phone as above except hugh battery life, 32 gb vs 16gb)
Samsung Galaxy sIII ($99 at verizon I think, amazon has it for $25)
Samsung Galaxy s4 (4199 at verizon)
I personally looked and looked and looked at the 4 phones above. like a lot. as in my wife was ready to strangle me. And I settled on the Droid razr HD. I did not need the longer battery life of the Maxx and a $15 micro sd card bumped my storage up 16 gb, more than I will ever need most likely. I liked the interface of the samsumg more, and it did more 'cool tricks', but the motorola's I read have great reception and I honestly liked the feel of the phone more. A bit more metal, solid feel to it vs the pastic feel of the samsung. I did read a lot of places the camera on the samsung sIII is slightly better than droids (honestly the razr HD camera is 'ok' but nothing to go crazy over) and the s4 camera is great. but it is $150-$175 more than the alternatives.
Hope this all helped.

I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
Good luck,

How do you find out what apps have been downloaded to what phone with 5 lines under one apple ID? HELP Nobody from the stores know how to do it.

How can you get a list of apps that were downloaded from each indivudal phone? The are under one Apple ID. Ex: Phone #1234 has downloaded Facebook and Twitter. Phone # 4567 downloaded Angry Birds and Temple Run. Etc. Even the people at ATT and Apple don't know how to retrieve it.

There is no such list of what is downloaded to each phone except in the backup. So if you have a recent backup of each phone you should be able to find an app that reads the backup files and would tell you what list is saved of the content on each phone.

EJBHome vs EJBObject what is the difference and which one is better

Hi
1) What is the advantage of LocalHome & LocalObject over EJBHome and EJBObject interfaces??
2) In which situation we need to use LocalHome & LocalObject interface??
3) In which situation we need to use RemoteHome & RemoteObject interface??
Thanks in advance
Dhinesh Kumar R

There is not much difference between Z77A-GD55 and -GD65. GD65 is a bit better than GD55 for oc and offers easy voltage check points. The slot layout is also a bit different. Looking at the price point the GD55 is m ost likely the better deal. You can compare mainboards using the following link:

Does an IMAC desktop come with wi fi router built in or do I need to purchase and connect one?

Does an IMAC desktop come with wi fi router built in or should this be purchased separately? My brother recently bought a new IPAD mini and we don't know how to connect it to wi fi. He has a fairly new IMAC desktop.

No. It comes with a Wi-Fi card for connecting to a router. First, you need Internet service in your household either from cable or DSL. The provider installs a modem or a modem/router. In the case of the former you need to provide the router. In the case of the latter you do not. But a router is needed to create a wireless network in your home.

HTC One M8/M9 windows phone

I've been due for an upgrade for a while now. About 3 months ago i decided I was tired of iphones and andriods. I want a windows phone. Especially the HTC One M8 or M9. I looked on the att site and they had one. The site said there was one at an Att store near me. I went there and the lady was happy too help me and i almost bought the phone until i realized it was an android. I specifically asked for an HTC One M8 or M9 windows phone. i was then told they had none and that i should purchase the one online. I went straight home and went to the Att site and mysteriously there were no HTC One M8 or M9 windows phones. I checked all over the state of Alabama, actually the whole of the southern states. No one seemd to have this phone. Microsoft sales it on their site for ATT but i have to pay the full price up front. I was hoping to get it from ATT and make payments as stated in my Upgrade. As i said above. I do not want another iphone. I do not want another android. if there is any ATT store out there that has this phone (HTC One M8 or M9 windows). Please,PLEASE! Help me out. Thank you

Unfortunately, you are correct. Verizon and ATT are both have few, if any the windows phones offered.
If you are on the Mobile share Value plan, buying the phone at full price means you can keep your discounted line fee.
The HTC one M9 comes with the uh-oh protection for one year, so it seems like a good purchase, but you will have to chose full price if you want windows.
FYI, as on July 15, you can't upgrade 2 year contracts and get a phone in any store. ATT requires the phone be mailed to you. You can still upgrade with a Next installment.

HTC One Wi-Fi Connection Issues - Please help!

I need major help!
I am currently on my third HTC One, after two attempts at a solution, and I am still having the same problem. Here it is: I will connect to my Wi-Fi at home, successfully browse a few pages online, press the power button to put it to sleep, press the power button again to turn it back on, then see (in the status bar) the Wi-Fi disconnect then reconnect, try to browse more pages online with no luck because the connection does not work. The only way I can consistently get Wi-Fi to work on this phone is after waking up my phone from sleep I have to turn Wi-Fi off then back on to re-establish the connection.
I've check my settings extensively and changed a few defaults in an attempt to get this to work. Here are my settings currently: "Keep Wi-fi on during sleep" - Always; "Wi-fi Frequency band" - 5 Ghz only; "Wi-Fi optimization" is checked; "Best Wi-Fi perfomance" is checked. My Wi-Fi password was entered correctly and I am currently writing this on a laptop connected to the same home network.
I am at my wit's end. I just want this beautiful phone to work properly. Are there any suggestions as to what might be causing this and how to fix this situation? Or am I doomed to an endless cycle of HTC One exchanges until I find one that works? Please help! Thanks.

It seems that rebooting worked for you. That's great!
Here's what happened to me:
I purchased two HTC One phones, one for me, one for my wife. Both could not connect to my 2.4GHz wifi router. I did all the usual steps, reboot router, change password and reboot, switch from 128-bit encryption to 64-bit encryption and reboot, etc. Nothing worked.
The problem: Android 4.2.2
The solution: Upgrade to Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean) via the [Settings] - [Software Update] - [Check New] menu
But how to upgrade when you cannot access WiFi? Call Verizon. They will either temporarily extend your data plan to allow you to download the massive 500MB installation package or work with you to put the update on a laptop where you can then transfer it to your SmartPhone via the memory card, or over USB.
This is not meant as a plug for Verizon, but I must say the technical folks are pleasant, patient, and very capable. And now my HTC One, and my wife's, are happily communicating with many different WiFi routers both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz. (Notice picture of two smiling people riding horses into the sunset)
Hope this is helpful to the next HTC One customer.

Why wont verizon have a version of the HTC One?

I know this has been talked about...and that most everyone out there is all hyped up about the next samsung galaxy, but as soon as the HTC one came out i was glued to it... until they announced the carriers. No Verizon version. WTH?? Im telling you BIG RED...you have two choices now that my contract is almost up. You either a) announce some stupidly named droid device that is very much akin to this HTC one...(maybe with a better battery)...or b)i will switch to sprint and say...bu-bye
Title edited by: Verizon Moderator

verizon dont like carrying phones that other carriers carry. the galaxy s 3 and note 2 are exceptions because the market share for those devices are big so they would lose big time money not to carry them..
verizon prefer manufacturers to make exclusive verizon phones EX: HTC DROID DNA... SAMSUNG DROID CHARGE MOTOROLA DROID LINES.
samsung put its foot down last year by making the SGS III identical across all US carriers. verizon had no choice but to swallow the pill. good for samsung now HTC its trying to follow samsung steps. verizon feels that they wont lose much money by not carrying the htc one
NOW HERE IS THE REASON WHY VERIZON DECIDED NOT TO CARRY HTC ONE.
Imagine verizon advertising the HTC ONE in a TV AD ..... why would a new customer get and HTC ONE from verizon when that same new customers can get it from t mobile and save big time money over the course of 2 years??
verizon only like phones they can tout as exclusive.
hopefully the HTC DROID DNA is the last droid phone we will ever see.
If manufactures start selling the same device year after year across all carriers... Carriers like verizon will lose its stranglehold in the industry. THIS IS WHAT WE WANT.

My AT&T HTC One M7 showing up as International after root.

I just got this phone yesterday. It wan't working right so I rooted it to fix the problems. I used Windroid to unlocked Booter, Flashed Recovery with TRWP, and Rooted with SuperSU.I installed custom kernal "ElementalX" and whenever I installed "MaximusHD" it says my phone is a International HTC One. Is it safe to use my USA AT&T Sims Card in this phone? Did I miss something up? or does it read as International after unlocking it? Will I get charged anything for using my Sims Card in this phone?

your cid is still ATT so your fine.
CID has nothing to do with the SIM. CID is only checked when installing official OTA updates, RUU, etc.
You can change the CID to whatever you want, it won't affect SIM use.
Not sure where OP is seeing "international", but Maximus is a international (Euro) based ROM and that is likely where its coming from. This doesn't affect your AT&T SIM usage. I've been using a few different Euro based ROMs on my M8 for a few months now, with no issues.
I was just making sure he didnt install something that changed his CID. Hence why I said he was fine in my first post. All my htc phones are SUPER CID. Like say a GPE rom which are more of a pain to install...

My phone is locked and wants a PIN. I never set a PIN. Do I have to reset and loose my info?

I never set up a PIN but my Phone is locked and requiring one. Do I have to loose everything and do a factory reset?

This is very strange Angela! Let's explore options to unlock your phone! What is your phone model, please?

I am in mainland China, my Nexus7 can display chinese characters, but my friend in Taiwan, his android4.4.2 display chinese characters as blank.
I don't understand the reason.
By the way, TextFormat.font don't work, whatever I set any fonts, display are the same.

Information on enabled services and which ones I can safely disable

Where is a good source of infomation for all of the enabled services (what they do, etc) and which ones I can safely disable. i.e. seaport.

Opt back in and then immediately back out (yes I know this sounds daft)
Leave you hub on 24/7 and it should deactivate as said with in 48 hours.
Don't reset the hub after doing this, as it always puts BTWifi back on!
fwiw, you should see this on the hub event log as the hub gets the btwifi disabled update
