happened to me too with vtlauncher... i reflashed all my partitions and relocked my boot loader, then used the one click gui to root with the latest tiamat kernel
[Omnia 7 General] AnnihilatorSC:
Did anybody notice any interference when using a bluetooth headset whilst also having WiFi active on the i8700, particularly in range of a WiFi AP?
[Omnia 7 General] stan2:
Yes, this has been a problem since the begining. I'm hoping new ROM will fix this, but this is rather annoying problem for Omnia 7 :(
[Omnia 7 General] stan2:
Ok after extensive testing of the Sound Tunner (*#0002#28346#), I will warn people that they SHOULD NOT mess with it to begin with. Changing those value will cause major problems that are irreversible (even if you change back to default values).

One of the problem is plugging your phone back to Zune, or the USB cable to charge, or the headphones will reset the volume level of the loud speaker.

I have reflashed my Omina back to XXJK1 and the problems are no longer there. So, once again, if people are thinking about messing around with this sound tuner. DON'T! Try the Media Volume Setting apps if you're still on 7004/7008. Other than that we can cross our finer and wait for future ROM release that potential solve these issue.NoDo did not resolve this issues, so I don't think we can rely on MS's part to fix it.
[Omnia 7 General] AnnihilatorSC:
And what exactly does the sound tuner have to do with this problem?

On an additional note, the new KC1 firmware DOES NOT fix the problem.
[Omnia 7 General] wrxdrunkie:
Samsung is so good but so bad at making phones.....

This problem drives me crazy, I have BT speakers at home and a BT head unit in my car, the connection of the BT overall is poor, but music playback is unbearably choppy if you leave wifi on. My Samsung Focus does the same thing. The HTC Surround does not have this problem.

I honestly don't think this will ever get fixed, its just one of those software/hardware/driver issues that Samsung will NEVER fix.

I am crossing my fingers that the official mango release with whatever drivers is has fixes it, but I know that's probably not going to happen.
[Omnia 7 General] tarzan_nojane:
WiFi interference - one Omnia7 with & one without

I have two Samsung Omnia 7 phones. One unit has virtually unusable BT with WiFi turned on-

OS Version: 7.10.7720.68

Firmware revision number: 2424.11.9.3

Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4

Radio software version: 2424.11.9.1

Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.800

Bootloader version: 5.9.1.4

Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0

The other unit exhibits NO noise/interference on BT with WiFi on-

OS Version: 7.10.7740.16 <-------------

Firmware revision number: 2424.11.9.2 <-------------

Hardware revision number: 3.15.0.4

Radio software version: 2424.11.9.1

Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.800

Bootloader version: 5.9.0.6 <-------------

Chip SOC version: 0.36.2.0

Both are carrier unlocked 16GB units. As a noobie, I am unsure of how to back down the FW & BL and up the OS version to make the first unit identical to the second and see if the interference issue goes away.

Is there a unique build version that incorporates all of the characteristics of the second phone that needs to be installed on the fiirst phone?
[Omnia 7 General] AnnihilatorSC:
I don't think it's a software/firmware problem. More like the fact that the phone that works is of a newer hardware revision ("silent" update of the radio hardware by Samsung, not reflected in the numbers shown by the phone).
[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
I am on my second Omnia 7 now. Waiting to see if this one solves the radio issues I had with data.

However on the issue of bluetooth and wifi.

Pre-Mango I had no problems with bluetooth. After I updated to Mango my bluetooth wouldn't work properly if WiFi was turned OFF. It wouldn't discover or connect to any devices.

Strange problem...

I know there were batches of Omnias with dodgy radio hardware. Altough the Hardware rev numbers didnt change I also suspect an "behind the scenes" change on Samsungs part.
[Omnia 7 General] tarzan_nojane:
OK here are the Serial Numbers of my 2 units. The problem unit would seem to have a "later" number

OK device: R3UZB61413V

Problem device: R4XZC52489A

If the 5-digit number in the last 6 places is sequential, then the problem device is older, but the R4 and XZ sequences are "higher". Any help.

At least one post on a related topic mentioned that the interference started after an update, and went away when the previous software was restored.

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

Also, this is puzzling to this noobie -

Why won't the 7.10.7720.68 device update to the 7.10.7740.16 version of Mango? The Zune software reports no updates available...
[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
It reminds me of the farce with the 1.3 and 1.4 rev Focus. A hardware revision that needed specific updates to work.

I do wonder if the Omnias (my original and my sisters - we both had data problems since mango) we have are incompatible with the update.
[Omnia 7 General] tarzan_nojane:
FW wouldn't update issue

I finally managed to get the FW updates onto the first phone. Restored the FW to CSC_Cetus_Europe_I8700XENJK1 version, and after all auto updates, the phone was now at 7740. Then I manually updated to the even newer Samsung only FW.

BT-wifi interference issue never went away. Thankful for gazelle.com 30-day policy and returned that phone.

Since the phone was going back, I did get the nerve to try the free Dev Unlock procedure for Samsung outlined elsewhere. Worked like a charm and gave me access to Registry Editor Tools and similar.
[Thunderbolt General] loveubuntu:
I doubt too many will have this problem but just in case:

To get 4G coverage, the battery/back cover has to be on.

I was in the middle of a call to Verizon to get help and thought I'd mention it to her. The tech support woman right away said that they were told that the cover had to be on for activation and that may be my problems. I placed the cover on, rebooted and got 4G back.

I have 2 batteries, an extended one and a regular one. I exchange them as needed. Last night I was stupid and lazy enough to leave the cover off as I used it in bed. Don't ask me why, I guess I thought I'd use the regular battery but change to the extended one overnight to get a full charge and didn't want to get the back cover on and off (ya...that's my reasons :) )
[Thunderbolt General] jokerls240:
The cover is a PITA to take off, so I don't blame you for leaving it off.

For anyone curious why the cover needs to be on, the reason is that the main antenna is in the cover. Pure genius on HTC's part, I think. ;-)
[7 Mozart General] razzmos:
My brand new unbranded Mozart has terrible lock screen lag issues. Phone was perfect to start with then after the usual updates and 2 days later, is proving very hard to release the lock screen. I need to wait at least 5s until the phone starts responding. I have noticed it does the same when on the phone (i.e when the screen senses proximity and goes blank). anyone no of this phone having wake up problems etc.?
[7 Mozart General] razzmos:
Quick update - if I swipe up the left hand side of the screen the lag seems to vanish! (for that unlock only).

i.e swipe with index finger from the bottom left above the back arrow upwards and the Mozart seems to respond better!

Wierd but true. Just wondered up this works for anyone else experiencing the same problem.
[7 Mozart General] nseika:
The lock screen hasn't been responsive on mine. Strangely, once passing the lock screen, the screen is responsive, so shouldn't be a hardware problem right ?

Then I installed the new update and I can't get through the lock screen anymore. It responded to some flicks, but never completely unlock. But the rest of the interface (after doing a reset) is responding as good as always.

A test using the camera button, the screen needed two and a half minutes before responding. That's more than twice the time needed to response from a reboot
[7 Mozart General] hasmal:

i have a tmo_de mozart, and when i flashed it with an unbranded rom, problems with the screen lag appeared, now i flashed tmo_de back and its as good as its supposed to, after 1 month
[7 Mozart General] Keefo:
Had all kinds of touch screen lag problems with my friends Mozart, but lastnight i flashed the stock ROM again and it seems to have VASTLY improved it!

It was like the above video, but now its a million times better, but still misses the odd first swipe when unlocking.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
No offense, but you need a little knowledge to root and flash a custom rom. This isn't meant for the average user. It feels like everyone who gets an android phone nowadays (as it's becoming a more popular OS) want's to root and flash a custom rom as soon as they have in their hands without even knowing what it really means. The information to do all this is available here on this forum in form of guides which in most of the cases are quite extensive. If you want to root and flash a custom rom etc, you will have to do some reading on your own.

AFAIK this forum isn't here to hold the hands of android virgins as they try modify their phones without even knowing what a command prompt is. Almost every day someone new wants step by step instructions for this and for that even though there are good instructions out there. This forum is meant for people with some experience and knowledge that want to get the most out of our phones. New members are ofcourse welcome, but please, do some studying on your own too.

I was so scared to root my first phone last week. I sat for three hours reading guides over and over again to make sure I new what I was doing and I havent regretted doing it. :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
Too often I come across threads like this, if your not sure then you probably don't need to root, yet! If you decide to root read the stickies in the development thread, and don't say you havent got time to read a 100 page thread it'll be a lot quicker than fixing your DHD when it's buggered up

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
I DIDN'T need to downgrade first and simply followed the video on the bottom of this page.

(Youtube version)

I then simply installed CM7 rom via Rom Manager.

(I am rarely sick but I had been quite ill and in a lot of pain for a few days which was a shock to the system, and when I did get better, I had the mindset that nothing matters at all.) It's not easy for most folk to feel that way. Life is a game. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Unless you are unhappy or bored with Sense or the performance of your phone - there isn't too much reason to root in my opinion.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I'm TheQuest:

Best thing i ever did. I had a jailbroken iphone before i got my Desire HD so rooting was the first thing i looked at when i got my HD, getting rid of the branding was the main reason but then i realized how many Roms were out there and now its hard to choose which one to use ::o

@I'm TheQuest

I think ghostofcain was talking about the OP...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
Thanks very much. :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fabiosilvero:
There's a lot of changes and benefits if you root your phone and install a custom ROM... First, there are a lot of custom ROMs, for any taste. MIUI imitate the iOS system, with the liberty of Android OS, for example, and RevoHD leave the original SENSE ROM, with improvements of course.

Then, custom ROMs have some interesting tweaks, like zipalign, the ads removing and a better management of the RAM.

To finish, I did it myself (running the MIUI ROM by Rey) and I have no regrets. After reading a few tutorials it was easy as ABC !

Like it was said before It's up to you, I dont intend to convince anyone, but If you wanna do it, go doing some searches. This forum has some tutorials, and anyone, even a noob can understand them.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hbazerbashi:
Hello,

On my X10 mini pro I upgraded to Android 2.3.3 using Cyanogen 7 hoping that the VPN will work, but it didn't.

I purchased from StrongVPN and their service works very well on the desktop and iPhone, but it never worked on my Android.

I tried the program "VPN Connections 0.99" but it always does Force Close. I tried Transproxy to connect to my PC as a proxy, that too crashes.

Tried configuring Hotspot Shield free service on Android, no success :(

Tried Tor for Android, it connects successfully, but when I do a test, the test says I'm not using Tor!

I feel that I tried everything with no success to make VPN work :(

Any help?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Please check for the tun.ko its posted in general or in one of the development threads by me,

Then copy it to lib/modules/ and then

Insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

After that it should work!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
Sorry cannot edit

If you want it to be always insmodded goto hw-config.sh

And add at the end

Insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hbazerbashi:
Shouldn't the tun.ko be made specifically for Android 2.3.3?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
http://www.mediafire.com/?9g14y8i18xx2642

Here is the link. I dont remember if it was an xrec update zip or not, so just extract and copy via root explorer or adb

Permissions are 744
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
no the tun.ko

has to be made for the device and kernel.

but all the ones i found so far were not working so i compiled my own one

edit:

please let us all know if it works afterwards!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hbazerbashi:
Man I can't thank you enough! You people is what you make the world a wonderful place :D

Yes it worked! I was able to use Hotspot Shield free service using the VPN Connections 0.99.

The issue now is that it is so slow, that's why I purchased VPN service from strongvpn, but no matter what I try using the system's VPN settings, it doesn't connectt :( it just takes long time then ask me if I want to retry connecting...

Man if you like I can give you my credentials to try.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] hbazerbashi:
Oh it worked! Thanks to the suport guy I'm now connected to vpn using the onboard vpn app :)

Thanks a lot for Cyanogen and XDA devs :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] c0l3:
Hi,

my Headphone Jack seems to have loosed its contact. I have some basic soldering skills.

But I am asking for some advise from some experts who previously opened there Milestone and did similar fixes.

Are there any Guides on How to open the Milestone to its guts?

Or do you have some advise on what I have to pay attention?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] m82a1:
use a small amount of flux jelly on the pins, careful with solder splashes.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] c0l3:
hello,

i looked at this video on how to take apart the milestone:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE81IaQHEHc

and it looks like the plastic cover over the camera gets destroyed during the process.

Is that right? Or can I reattach this peace after the fix?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] juankinder:
You have to be very careful. You can reattach all parts using some glue. I had the same problem but its better to buy a bluetooth headset. The s9 hd sounds great!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Ekofasc:
Just return the phone? Its warranty is valid for 2 years. I did this because of the same problem, and received a brand new Milestone. :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] lfventura:
if you have warranty send it back, so you can get a new one. Otherwise, open your phone carefully. Everything is reatachable if opened properly :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Basian Mile:
yeah, with warranty it would be not a big deal i think.

You will not believe it, but i have never use my Headphone Jack until now :-)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
Tested with Megatron, Void Echo, Fenice & LOL 1.2,1.42 - probably should work with other 2.2x ROMS.

The idea behind this is following:

dark theme, since I like them

easily readable green status icons

well readable battery showing percentage

elegant font

How to get it working: (it is smart to do Nandroid backup from recovery, you never know...)

* copy the theme file to the root of your SD card

* start recovery (reboot/turn the phone on) while holding Home+Vol down

* select Wipe->Wipe Dalvik Cache

* Flash ZIP from SD->downloaded file name

* reboot

* it can take a little bit longer time at first boot

I am not responsible for bricking your phone if something happens :)

thanks to adi4motion for his work, I've used parts of his Gingerbread theme (themed Power bar & white clock)

If you like this theme, please say Thank you by clicking on the ads on my download page :)

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] bioan:
Works great on LOL 1.2. The font doesn't apply.

P.S: could you replace the notification panel with a colour instead of that image ? It kinda blinks when pulling the notification bar.

Thanks!
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
Thank you. Did the font apply after flashing?
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] albertoa97:
Does it work on void #echo?
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
Nobody have tried it yet, but it is from same author as Megatron in my phone. So most likely yes. If you are afraid, do nandroid backup before.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Japany:

One bug from me:

When I go to some application and when I use volume butons and screen freeze,i can't do nothing and I take off battery to restart .

In all applications volume keys not working.?Any ideas?

I'm with LOL 1.4.2
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
That is really strange. Try to reboot to recovery once more and clean Dalvik Cache once more.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Japany:
The same problem Bro. :(
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
It is really strange. Do all the apps FC, or just some?
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Japany:
In all aplications.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] kokesh:
I would personally do nandroid-restore. If you can't do that, than I would try to re-flash the LOL ROM, just with dalvik-cache wipe. This way you should not lose any data/apps.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] slipmeknot:
does this work on franco's devoid rom? tnx:D
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] manast:
Considering void echo is in the list of ROM's where the theme works, it should also work on Franco's Devoid as it is derived from void.

What better way to know than to try out yourself. Just do a nandroid backup from receovery and test. If it does not work, restore from recovery. :)

Hey @kokesh I'm using nessy.hypnos2 rom and I tried your darksky theme, but I had to restore my backup because I found that with darksky theme my battery life was shortened by almost half of what it used to be with nessy.hypnos2. I'm just a common user and not a programmer so I don't know what does change in the system when you apply a new theme, I would think it is only a visual change and the battery life shouldn't change at all but that is what happened to me. I liked the theme very much but the battery issue su**ed. Thanks anyway.
