Is it worth the swap, or should I look at something else?:confused:
Sorry, I shouldn't have said LTE.
 
You won't regret it!!!

This phone runs circles around the OG Warp.... and it hasn't even been tweaked yet.
ZTE has come a long way

Speaking of which... Is it a totally new method or a matter of getting the right files to/from the right places?

I'm just tired of things not working. My reception sucks, I can't hear ANYTHING! It's been a good phone, but the reception, and volume issues have just burnt me out. And if I want JB, and Android 4.?? (whatever), I'm tired if all the glitches. The dev's have been GREAT! But I thinks it's time to move on.
 
Go for it dude, I switched a couple months ago and loving it. The 4g speeds in my area are phenomenal. No custom roms yet but that will happen in time. Pimp My Rom app works fantastic with this phone.:smokingsomb:
 
I love this phone. Ive installed a notification toggle app and have had no reason to try and build a stock based rom for this device. Spending what time I do have on cm
 
I just bought my new Warp 4g. I'll fire it up tomorrow. Gonna be asking a lot of questions, so don't be mad. Pretty used to my old Warp, so I hope I can slide in with not too many issues. I'm ADHD like a mofo, so I need a lil guidance.
 
OK, I'm rooted, I can not install CWM or Philz to save my life. I'm not too familiar with adb so I'm gonna need some help. I went to the command prompt and typed ADB, and a bunch of stuff scrolled down the screen, and now I'm back at C:\users\Scott Bolden>, now what do I do?
I'm off to work right now, be back later. I would appreciate any help.

I used Terminal Emulator (if you don't have it download the app).

As per Junkie's instructions:
http://androidforums.com/boost-mobi...t/786240-recovery-clockworkmod-6-0-3-7-a.html

to install, put the recovery image on the root of your sd card. that means straight on the card no folders

you will then need to make sure you are rooted and get either terminal emulator on the phone or an adb connection

command, for terminal emulator just start it up

then type the following two commands

Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/warplte_cwm.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16

Edit: I put cwm.img on phone sd card, did the terminal command, and now have cwm! :) Like I said, it's a lil different than the warp, and I have to learn more about terminal commands. But I have CWM now! :)
 
no sd as of now but in time i will find a remedy but other than that i am very pleased with the 4g performance,no buffering when watching youtube and check out the performance scores. uploadfromtaptalk1395027594621.jpguploadfromtaptalk1395027630011.jpguploadfromtaptalk1395027720674.jpg...ps.Rooted but stock.
 
Hey, fellas.
What the heck is an "OG Warp". I got a ZTE Warp (N860) running Droidsmith, which really kicks it (Thanks a zillion, JimSmith80). Is my N860 an "OG Warp"???
