Can I update my HTC M8 (Verizon version) software?

1stsim144 — Fri, 02 Jan 2015 23:31:10 +0800

I have 2 question to ask.

I recently bought my HTC M8 (32GB) Verizon version from GadgetJunction through Lelong site and it worked perfectly (after a few adjustment and tweaks).

The only 2 problem I'm facing now is, should I update the phone? Since it's from the US region and I live in Malaysia, I'm afraid the phone will rendered useless after I update it.
(I tried to update the phone through the phone itself it gave me, 'only work for CDMA mode' error, so I have to use my PC to update it)

And how do I enable the 4G connection?

*note: Current android version is 4.4.2, last I check for available update is for android 4.4.4 (android 5.0 [lollipop] in a month)

Problem details
First occurence of problem: February 2014
Problem frequency: UNTIL NOW
Problem description: Random disconnections but at certain hours of the day.

Sometimes it will disconnect for several times but at times it don't. I'm really frustrated with the 'help' I get. They never bother to come to my place and check anything. Always blaming the splitter/modem/cable.

I don't even use splitter anymore, I'm directly connecting the darn wire to the source and it STILL occurs. My god!
Whats annoying the most is the fact it doesn't disconnect AT ALL during noon till 6pm. (I can't prove the technician that I have problem if and when they finally come)
Anyone else suffering this shite?

DIGI CALLED ASKING FOR DC NUMBER

Hello, I'm not sure whether this is the correct place to post my enquiry but here goes,

I was call by an operator from this number 03-5731-1297 and asking about whether I'm interest in DIGI auto billing. She knew my full name and asks me whether I want it or not.

I said yes and she asked my I.C number along with my 16 digit card number and the valid thru number. WITHOUT THINKING I gave her all the details, and after she said will text the confirmation sms later I realize 'what if this is a scam?!'

I immediately log into my bank and transfer all the money to my other bank account leaving exactly 100rm just in case.

So here's the question, was the call a legit call?
Anyone else here ever get call by the same number or close but have the same exact intention?
OR am I just being paranoid..

HELP me to find place/website

Before recommending physical stores around the Peninsular, I just want to tell that I'm from Sabah. So it would be grateful if you guys only recommend me physical stores from Sabah.

If you know an online store that does this, it would be even more cooler.

I just want to know is there any website out there (within Malaysia) providing custom tshirt printing..
No minimum quantity required.. And cheap.

My design mostly consists of text quotes and NO images at all. The only colors I would preferably use for the text are either black or white. Simple as that. But I just don't know what or where to find these websites.

Can't freaking stream YouTube videos on BB 9300 3G

hi. I am seriously puzzled by most of the solution here.

Digi customer wasn't helpful so I'm reverting to the Internet.

I'm currently using DG Smartplan with BIS and I can't freaking stream YouTube videos, which is the MAIN REASON WHY I CHANGED TO POSTPAID IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Back when I'm still on prepaid, I can easily stream YouTube videos with no problems but at the cost of $$$$$.

But right after I changed my plan everything gone kapuut. -.-

I tried the Disable APN settings.
Using dgstrm thingy on the apn, using dgnet on the apn and still nothing works.

Anyone with exact phone and same plan could help me?
