I ran the test that website on my Lg Optimus 7 and I got a lot of latency readings, it starts up on 1617ms and ends on 175ms. The speed says 3866kbps which seems accurate according to another test site.

Basically, I want to have

Desktop Computer -> USB -> D2G -> WiFi(not 3G) -> Internet

on rooted D2G with stock froyo. Cyanogenmod on my myTouch 3G has this tethering option installed by default. But which app should I use for D2G?

Thanks!
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
Wasn't wireless tether for root users capable of doing this?

Sent from my DROID2 GLOBAL
[Droid 2 Global General] Asphyx:
not for WiFi access only 3G. With Wireless Tether the WiFi is used as an access point to 3G not another WiFi router.

What he is trying to do is use the Phone as a wireless card for a PC over USB.

I have never seen an app to do that and it really would just be better to go buy a wireless card for the PC, You will get much better data speeds.
[Droid 2 Global General] leobg:
I am pretty sure if you connect bluetooth you can tether to wifi connection. Check this out:

straight from: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

But you are right you need to connect via BT (not USB...), so it may not work for you.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noelito:
I feel the toast notifications for wp7 are sub par, they just dont provide me with enough information when i get a new text and not even when i get a new email so i have to leave the app im using to go directly to the text or email application.

for example i will get a text notification and often times the details of the text or the sentence itself are too long to fit in the notification window. how about this:

when the notification hits, is it possible to let the ENTIRE messsage stream in the notification window box that appears at the top of the screen? just like it does with android?

Also can we make further use of the toast notification window to include new email messages too? to inform us that say 5 new emails have appeared?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
as good as these ideas are, some will desire the opposite saying that the fact it shows some of the text message even when the screen is locked allows for people to see your private texts... so it goes both ways...

that and you're asking for this on the wrong forum, this is something you should suggest to MS directly, either through social.microsoft.com or by twitter
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
which rises the suggestion to allow a preference in the toasrts that would:

allow full message playback (on/off)

no message playback. (on/off)

no messages on lockscreen (on/off)

three options that would be very nice ...and simple

Does anyone have a stock flashable market??? Version 2.3.4
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] ddgarcia05:
Extract it from another rom. Use winrar or 7zip and extract it from system/app.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Spaniard85:
You could probably do the same with root explorer if you have a ROM zip with a stock market on your SD card.

I didn't see another thread about this... but it seems to be more than just my G2. My wife's vibrant is also not working well recently. Is Gmail sync screwed up? I have a nightmare of a time sending any picture emails out (I haven't tried normal emails) and if I delete the message on my phone it doesn't delete on PC. Hitting refresh does not do anything. Any fixes for this?

I've had some similar problems recently.

It seemed to have disapeared by the next day.

I also deleted the emails that couldn't get sent.

Maybe that had helped.

BUT U LL LOSE UR MOB MEMORY BY THIS METHOD. IT WILL RESET UR MOBILE TO ORIGINAL FACTORY SETTINGS!!!
[Streak 5 General] william58:
I returned my Sony Xperia X10 back to Best Buy today, (main reason being the 1.6 version and wanted bigger screen). At Best Buy, none of the phones are live, so you have to take the salesman word for it. He said the Streak "should" have the 2.1 version.

NOPE!!! I get home turn it on and check... it's version 1.6.

What is with Dell??? This is an year old version now.

If I can't update between now and two weeks when my 30 days is up... I'll take it back.

So far, I like this phone... but I'd like to get it to enclair or gingerbread.
[Streak 5 General] wontoniii:
You just have to go in settings-->info about the phone --> updates...

And now you have Froyo. ;)
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
A friend of mines first streak broke (home button stopped working) so they sent him a new one. Last week I met up with him to update it and the OTA update wasnt there.

I messaged someone i know about dell asking if the update was pulled and he said its still rolling out over the next 2-3 weeks and there will be a blog post over at direct2dell soon.

BUT if you don't want to wait for it to reach your device, search on here and modaco and you can find the proper ota update.pkg. Just d/l it, put it on your sd card, reboot the streak, hold both volume buttons, select option 2 and it'll flash 2.2

Since its an official release from dell, it should work just fine (did so on my friends red streak). No flashing lights, no issues, and if dell releases another OTA it should receive it with no issues.
[Streak 5 General] mellojoe:
Under the Streak wiki, you should find a link to the 340 update to get Froyo 2.2 on your phone. You can't click on the link, you need to manually type it into the phone.

Or the official can be found here:

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_340_14844_31.pkg

Again, type it in manually into your streak and it should update.
[Streak 5 General] william58:
PdaNet won't work?

Hey guys! Thanks for the responses. I was on the road all day traveling from N WA to S OR for a funeral taking place Friday. Just got to looking here on the forum.

I'll keep the phone. I'm impressed with it so far just running 1.6

The screen is just GREAT. Much better than the Sony X10 I had.

My only complaint is getting PdaNet to work on it. Won't accept the modem driver. I had no trouble installing & using PdaNet with the Backflip, iphone3 and Sony X10 before this phone???

I'll update the version when I get back home Sunday.

I went into a large Verizon store in Salem to look around today and the manager asked what phone I had, and I told her that I had the Dell streak. She asked to see it and she was very impressed. She hadn't seen one before and said it looked better than anything she had in the store. That surprised me coming from the competition. Didn't try to sell me a phone at all.

Well, it is off to bed. I'll be hanging here once I get back home and I think I'm gonna like it here.
[Streak 5 General] william58:
I did that.

System updates (check for system updates)

It said "No software updates available at this time"

Still on Firmware Version 1.6
[Streak 5 General] wolverine9827:
Yea, same here... Got my streak yesterday and it was on 1.6 too... the software update screen said the same "No Software Updates available at this time" too... so I gave Dell Mobility a call at 1 800 624 9896 and told them I'd like to receive the update link sent to my email address.... which it turns out was the 340 ver for AT&T which I went ahead and downloaded from the XDA Streak Wiki and transferred to the phone and renamed to Update.pkg and performed the update via the vol +/- and power buttons and selected update (#2).... 15 minutes later - Froyo goodness :) (such as it is under AT&T)

Next stop: rooting! :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mochamud:
Has anyone had any success with a rooted Atrix getting itching thumb to work? My phone is rooted and I was wondering if anyone enabled the high quality previews. The program can't properly see that the phone is rooted to allow it. I like the web Os style multitasking so if you have any alternatives it would be appreciated

I'm rooted with aRoot and updated
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irishtexmex:
Are you able to even get the webOS style multitasking? The "Style" button is grayed out and when it activates I don't get a horizontal line of cards (it's a grid that I can't flick cards off of). Videos of previously released versions of this look like it operated great, but this is terrible. I'm coming from an original Pre here so if I could get this operating properly that would be fantastic.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mochamud:
I completely forgot I posted this, sorry about the delay. The Developer contacted me and tegra devices aren't supported yet. Card style multitasking is fantastic. In my opinion that feature alone made webOs the best UI but webOs never took off.

Have you guys seen the AT&T version of Nexus S?

Its in ALL white (including the side bezel) and the only part that's black is the screen.

Yah but I think the white side bezel makes it look more like a cheap rubber cover. They made the best combo on the european ones, covering only the back and the buttons in white.

Just connect to the pc and do a reinstall or repair with SEUS
[XPERIA X10 General] benz0076:
Download 1 of the custom 2.1 rom from xda.

Reboot in xrecocery.

Do a factory reset, a cache partition wipe and wipe dalvick cache.

Install the rom with install custom zip.
[XPERIA X10 General] shooi:
I've just gone from Cyanogen 2.2.1 back to SE 2.1. I tried SEUS but it didn't provide a recovery option, it just said that there was no update available - I'm guessing because it didn't recognise the ROM.

I ended up using Flash Tool to get one of the SE ROMs on it.

However, if you have PC Companion installed, I think you can do a recovery on the phone regardless of what ROM you're on (it says there's no update but there's a link to 'recover phone' or something like that).
[XPERIA X10 General] bjordanov:
Me ended with the same stuff :D:D:D:D
[XPERIA X10 General] Petarsson:
nope, i tried that some days ago and pc companion stopped at start of flashing procedure and told me, that there is no firmware available for me. i was running beta4.

then i flashed an old xrecovery backup, that i made after my update to bb .54, and bingo, no problem repairing with pc companion...obviously nowadays the SE update sw doesn't like any other roms...:rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 General] moJo787:
Its strange that this didn't work for you. I upgraded to 2.2 a few weeks ago, but the instructions I followed decided they wanted to leave out a step. It ended up being a pretty critical step and it really screwed up my phone. So much so that I couldnt even get into the phone anymore. As a last effort, I tried PC Companion to do a repair and it worked. Cleared everything off and went back to the stock 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 General] SONE9:
Scrub question, when re-flashing the x10, does it wipe contents of the microSD or just internal memory?
[XPERIA X10 General] ironjose:
Just internal =)
[Nook Color General] cmstlist:
I ran my battery down to zero - auto-shutdown - and then plugged it into the charger. This is when I remembered that the NC will refuse to boot below a certain battery level. Boo, I still wanted to override that and boot into the OS with the charger plugged in.

Simple solution: I swapped my SD card to my bootable Clockwork card. This appears to override the part of the bootloader that checks the battery level. Then, while in Clockwork I swapped back to my usual data SD. Then I selected "reboot" from within Clockwork and it happily booted into the OS on low battery.

Hope this is useful to all =)
[Nook Color General] wpscully:
Power Cable and Totally Dead Battery

I have run my Nook Color long enough to consume all the battery. That is, when I power-on I get a "red battery" symbol on the screen with a message saying "Wait 15 minutes and try again".

While the red battery displays I can power-down (hold the power button for about 3 seconds), but it seems the BIOS reboots again, to that same red battery screen. To me this can seem alarming.

However if I do as the screen says, that is, leave the Nook Color alone for 15 20 minutes, I find I can power-down (power button 3 seconds) and the Nook Color will boot normally, albeit with a very low battery.

I just leave the battery cable plugged in. After awaking in the morning the battery is full again and none the worse, for wear.

I am running CM7 RC4.

Hey everybody, just trying to find out a few tid bits about my phone.

1st) When using Myns TwoPointTwo for Incredible, even with the new hosts, and the original Browser with reflow, any page loads 75% and sits for 2-3 minutes then loads...This is on Wifi and 3g.

2nd) The radio app gets HORRIBLE signal, are any Radio apps better than others? Any recommendations on Headphones with good antenna qualities? lol

3rd) With Warm Z TwoPointTwo, Acore and many other system processes continuously force close, took me 100 tried to get through the startup wizard...Any ideas why this is?

4th) What is theorized as the most stable Z Rom? I run Myns TwoPointTwo, and love it, but am fond of the new sense. Any recommendations?

Did anyone know how to take out the .xap from WP7
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laquox:
Took me forever to find due to the buggy nature of the search function, but This thread has a program where you can "download" installed xaps from the windows phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kapanak:
I asked the same question a few weeks ago, and the post was closed...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laquox:
Being new I am not sure, but all that program does is list the xaps you have installed yourself (Sideload) so no chance of piracy concerns which is only reason why I could think that maybe yours was closed..
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Short version: You can't. XAP files are never stored on the phone. You're asking the equivalent of "How can I get SkypeSetup.exe out of my C:\Program Files\Skype directory?"

It *might* be possible to reconstruct the XAP, but you'd need to build it from the application's install directory. Currently the only phones that you can access this directory on is HTC (and possibly Samsung, when Heathclif releases his tool). I actually already have an app that does this (access the install directory, not rebuild the XAP) and have avoided even trying to rebuild the XAP as I have more than enough other things to do and could see no real value in doing the requild. If you can convince me otherwise, I'll listen. "So I can copy the app to my friend's phone" isn't going to fly, though; I'll tell you that now. Requests like that get reported to the mods. This forum is *NOT* about app piracy; read the stickies.
