So I have never been on a train, but I like scenery and all. Am I crazy to ride Amtrak from Washington D.C. to Sacramento. It will take me a lot longer than air ride, but is train travel worth it ?

[Off-topic] conantroutman:
I'd rather travel by train than air, as long as you can get some mains power for your phone/laptop. The only thing that sucks is the money they expect you to pay for wifi....

That and getting sat next to someone who's drunk and/or smelly....

Yeah wifi tether might be my only option. Not sure how the verizon coverage is going to be along the tracks.

I'm going to Folsom for internship. Are you from sacramento ? If you are can you suggest me some good places to stay in Folsom if you know.

yeah i figured as much, I would be on my laptop all day at home, and I can do the same thing in the train while catching up on scenery.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DocMAX:
any chance that someone will crack to access sockets for RDP etc.?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Take a look at the "Functional Webserver" project by Davux. It uses TCP sockets. The actual socket library is from another developer, and is basically a native ARM wrapper around WinCE's WinSock API which in turn exports that functionality to COM. Throw in some code from Mono and you have a working TCP socket implementation. I'm using it myself, in an as-yet unreleased backup app.

No support for UDP just yet, but TCP works fine. The source to "Functional Webserver" is available (you can also get a slightly tweaked version of the same library in my "IE Search Switcher" app, although I'm not using the socket support there). It's only the C# source and a pre-compiled ARM binary - no C++ source, or I might have already added UDP - but if you look hard enough you can probably find that too (or maybe I should...)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Anyone else experience data drops recently? I would say maybe a week, two weeks ago at most it started happening.

Before that I had a solid data connection, it was edge to 4g, but it retained it's connection well.

Now for example if I'm driving to work, 25% or more of the drive in random spots I have bars, sometimes full bars, but NO data at all.

This was not like this when I first got the phone, but is becoming more frequent now.

Am I the only one?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wootek76:
I have very similar issue or if not than its probably same issue, ever since two days ago its been happening so often. When the phone goes to sleep when you wake it up its always searching so when u try to make phone call it'll say not registered to a network.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
I cant even really use things like slacker radio or pandora anymore because it drops data so often.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gpz1100:
Possible solution?

I'm helping a friend with a similar issue.

I myself have an htc evo, and under settings/networks/mobile data, there's a toggle settings called enabled always on mobile data. This setting maintains the data connection even when the phone is asleep. Without this, after ~5 min, push email no longer works, nor does anything else that use data.

Now, I only had a chance to use the S 4G for a few hours about a week ago when I set the thing up for him. I can't remember if there was such a setting under networks or not.

For those of you who have the phone handy, or are familiar with it, can you advise what samsung calls this function, and where it's located in the menu structure?

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
I couldnt find any setting similar to the one you're referring to, just data while roaming which is enabled.

The main thing I find odd, is the phone only started doing it recently.. it performed great and always had data before.

Not to sound like a have a tin foil hat on.. but it's only started happening after the merger was getting announced. Could just be a coincidence, but odd timing nonetheless.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gpz1100:
Do you have wifi enabled?

Since he's got wifi in his house, I left that on for better battery life as opposed to using tmobile data. I wonder if there's a handoff issue when he leaves.

If you're using wifi, try turning that off and keeping it off.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Yes.. I never have wifi enabled.. I'm talking about driving to work.. I have an hour drive.

Before I had solid data, it was edge or 4g, but regardless data 100%..

Now have I have data maybe 25% of the drive.

I've changed nothing. T-mobile has changed.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gpz1100:
Oh this is frustrating indeed! What geographic area are you in? My friend is in chicago.

Does the data drop and reconnect, or stays dropped?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Bay area California..

Like I said, 3 weeks ago.. ZERO issues, constant connection, no drops, no problems.

Yet 1-2 weeks ago.. constant drops all the time, no data at all.. if i stream radio it will drop data completely so actually kill the connection with my radio stream.. becomes extremely obnoxious since it's very frequent.

This NEVER happened before.

It reconnects but takes oddly long.. for example, normal data reconnect from a sleep is maybe 15-20seconds.. this is more like 5-10 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gpz1100:
I *WONDER*.... with the evo's wimax (4g) settings, there's a number of parameters that can be adjusted as far as signal quality (SNR), time outs, min signal strength required for connection, etc..

Maybe you travel through a questionable signal area, and it has a hard time re-establishing connection while in motion... On the evo, we get into that menu by ##3282# from the dialer. There's gotta be a similar menu for tmobile's 4g.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TheWord:
i know SGS tools allows you to switch between auto, GSM, WCDMA bands on the fly. This may help you in your problem if you want the phone to stay in 4G mode or not. the phone generally has a problem with Death-Grip users and the weak antenna.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wootek76:
The phone was working great week ago this started to happen i thought this had something to do with my phone being rooted but i have another friend with exact same issue and his phone is not rooted. If u put ur phone to GSM only than ur not going to have the isuue but you'll be on EDGE connection at all time.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Well I think the main point that's being over looked, is when i purchased the phone, i did not have this issue, at all, ever.

So well over a month or more with ZERO issues, now all of a sudden I have the issues.. I've changed nothing, i rooted and modded the phone day #1.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wazzukirk:
I am with you. My wife and I both have this phone. It had been working great and and then all of a sudden, about 2 weeks ago, we are having nothing but problems with our data connections. We live in the Seattle area.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nrfitchett4:
Has anyone contacted t mobile to ask about data problems? They don't have the most reliable network.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Omnichron:
It could be a throttled down data stream. Do you unlimited Data plan?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jpragsdale:
I to am having the exact same issue in downtown chicago. I have contacted Tmo and gone through all of their troubleshooting steps. They even replaced my phone last week and I still get data and cell drops. When I called back they were going to dispatch a tech to the area to determine of there was an issue with a tower, but I don't expect anything to come from it. My problem started about 3-4 weeks ago. The only thing that helped a little was to switch the wireless network from WCDMA/GSM tp GSM only. You are confined to Edge for data, but the data seems more reliable. I am wondering if their towers are reaching capacity and therefore we are seeing drops???
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] wootek76:
I don't have that issue at all. It work just like when I first got the phone...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ssmokey727:
We here in oldsmar fl had a really bad data drop last sunday that we couldnt make or receive any phone calls but data and texting was workin. I called t-mobile n they couldnt detect any outage in this area n they had me troubleshoot all of my phones (3 of them) n nothing worked after about an hour of being on the phone with them I decided to drive about two miles away n I was able to make phone calls! ...by monday everything was fixed in my area but now im seeing weird stuff on the phone signals like when I make a phone call n I hang up I see the edge icon on the phone n then about 5 secs later it goes back to the 4g icon...that didnt used to happen before...I've even seen the G icon which ive never seen before in this phone since I got it...what the hell is going on with t-mobile towers? R they slacking? or maybe doing some kinda preparations to convert to ATT signals? Just my thoughts...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Yogi3:
I'm having issues too and its making me sofaking mad! I don't even use a gig of data and I'm on edge for half my billing cycle ... Phone is great but I think it's the sh!t service T-Mobile gives to their customers ... at this rate you all may see me on the Nexus S 4G real soon... I've had 2 issues with T-Mobile so far in less than a month... I don't think its the phone...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Yogi3:
One of my friends works for T-Mobile in the Frisco TX call center and he told me when he started that they are told to not let you know when their data goes down unless its a whole region ...

And on a side note for anyone that may care it is true the At&t and T-Mobile are merging ... Same friend told me that the Frisco call center is the 1st one to go...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] heartspains88:
Hasnt gotten any better. And I'm well in a new month, so it's not a change in the data downstream, and yes i'm completely unlimited.

It was something that i had no issues with, then started having issues with, and the issues have not stopped.

I severely doubt contacting t-mobile would help, and it seems like lots of others in different locations are having the same issues.

[HTC Inspire 4G] jeremyseattle:
Here's the long story (SEO version):

I recently switched from an iPhone to an Inspire. Started getting texts and emails from AT&T that I was required to switch to a 4G data plan (this is the case if you switch from any 3G phone to any 4G phone - Inspire, Atrix, Infuse, etc). I ignored these for a while because I didn't want to lose unlimited data, but finally decided to call customer care. I was able to switch to an unlimited 4G data plan without arguing with them - which I thought I was going to have to do. Cool!

The problem was that while messing with my account, the rep also changed me from 'iPhone Messaging Unlimited' to 'Unlimited Text Messaging'. I didn't realize for a few days, but this feature does not include MMS, so I wasn't receiving picture messages. My wife was mad at me because she thought I broke my phone and couldn't receive the cute pictures of our daughter that she was sending. I spent good chunks of the past three days messing with my APN settings, re-flashing my ROM (AR3.1), updating to a newer ROM (AR3.3), etc, etc.

So today I thought, 'I wonder if this has anything to do with my switching data plans..." Like I said, it took me a few days to realize it, so I didn't make the connection at first; I had, after all, also changed from Inspired to Revolution around the same time, so I thought that - and the ROMs' different APN configs - could be the issue.

So I logged into my AT&T account online and saw the problem with the messaging plan. Changed it to "Messaging Unlimited" (same price - $20 - as the Unlimited Text feature) and within a couple of minutes I was able to send and receive MMS!

Short version:

If you recently upgraded to a 4G AT&T phone (Inspire, Atrix, Infuse, or whatever), and are experiencing issues with MMS messaging, or text or data features, make sure AT&T got your features right.

I know from searching that a few other people have experienced MMS problems on their Inspires, so I hope this helps at least one other person!
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
got my inspire today and popped my sim card in...within 5 minutes i had a text and an email telling me to switch lol. I really want to stay on my iphone data though because i have a backup iphone 3g i keep around for when i'm flashing or if something happens.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jeremyseattle:
I really don't know if they will ever enforce it, or if it makes any difference to your service, but you will continue to get the texts and emails saying that you have to switch. That's why I finally gave in, and like I said, I didn't have to fight to keep my unlimited data, which was a relief!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mjgunn:
When I had to move to a "4g" data plan they removed text messaging entirely from my account, not even pay per use so none of my texts were getting through. Gogo AT&T CSRs.

Edit: Oh, and to make it better, when I called to have it restored they gave me a hard time about putting the $4.99 200 texts plan back on since they don't offer it anymore, though they did eventually restore it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] aaronv89:
does moving to "4g" actually do anything? like is it a price increase or anything or is it just something they do on paper?

I'm looking into getting an inspire but I really don't want to if its gonna end up costing me more monthly...
