  • what im using is the tweakker ics. it really works for 3g. you have to set it up manually. best apn application!!

  • how about the message limit?

  • I also have this phone and been trying to find out of a way to make its 3g service working and they suggest rooting which I don't want to.But I happened to find a solution for it without rooting,won't take 5 minutes of your time,check this so easy!I am not the creator of this apps,I don't know how to,I just want to help you guys who are also a big fan of Vega phones!Try it!

  • That's right. I did one for one of my friend. It works like a charm.

  • btw, yes im a filipino..

  • im not so sure if its reliable. I attempt to use it on my own but then realizing that it would give me more problem and give total defect on my phone I stopped it. yeah, I can forward to you the number of the technician. As per the person I used to talked here his phone is fine and he is enjoying long msgs and 3g.

  • is this reliable?

  • oh man... are you a filipino? kindly share me the number of that technician if you are... im really frustrated about this. thanks!

  • yeah! rooting alone cannot fix the 3g and msg limit. after rooting, technician will have to customize the unit then that would be the time that it will work. Until now my unit is unfix since I dont have a budget yet. I have a contact person that knows how to root and customize the unit.

  • is it true that if i updated it or rooted it to cyanogen mod, 3g issue will be fixed?

  • I'm really having a hard time. I hope you guys can help me out. I have this phone, its OS is Gingerbread. I CANT ENABLE MY 3G SERVICE! NOTHING! is it true that if i root this phone, say, with cyanogen Mod 10 Jellybean, this will be fixed? PLEASE HELP ME, IM NEW TO THESE THINGS! #filipino

  • I'm having problem with my phone am using it in srilanka I couldn't connect my hand set to gprs pls give me a solution for this pls

  • I think one of the reasons why we cannot send msgs or received msgs especially in the Philippines, because of upgrading the unit to ICS or Jellybean.

  • How its battrey?? Its only 175 hours standby!!

  • the 80 characters on your messaging can be resolved by downloading Go sms.

  • for issues, try upgrading to Jellybean or ICS and see the results.

  • to someone who has problem on 80byte limit of SMS, we (from Vietnam) had found some ways to fix it and published a zip file to flash through CWM recovery. Just go to and try :-)

  • to those who are having a problem with the limit of 80 characters per sms, You can use an app called "Handcent SMS" you can grab it at the android market for free. Usually phone from korea has a 80 sms limit. A temporary solution is to use a 3rd party sms app (handsent) or to install a custom rom. I've seen a custom rom for this unit at forum.xda-developers.com/ try to seach there
