If your going to Virgin UK, get a new sim from then as if you have a very old one it might not support hspda speeds (regardless of you phone showing that connection) it could be limited to 3G :mad:

How can I test the trackpad because it seems to be broke
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
scrolling and/or pressing the trackpad broken?

quite easy tests: could try scrolling through homescreens/text/menus with it

then try pressing the trackpad to select items if they become highlighted
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f0xy:
Seems like pressing works but sliding doesn't :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s300pmu1:
Try typing any text in a text field, then sliding should move the cursor.

If it doesn't, looks like you're out of luck.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElTapatio0661:
I am currently running CM7.0.0-RC2-Slide, and I saw that there was a stable CM7 available, but after following cyanogen's instructions on installing, and after rebooting the phone, I come to a black screen with an image of a phone and a red triangle with a ! in the middle, on the top right of the image.

My technology savvy roommate said I need to flash the newest clockwork recovery with ADB, but i just can't figure anything out.

I just want the new CM7 on my phone and be happy already. I'm half tempted to just revert back to stock and upgrade to 2.2.

Can anyone please help shed some light on my dilemma?

-ET
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sc4bbk:
The red triangle screen is the stock recovery. The instruction at the cyanogen wiki says:

The update.zip in this case is the ClockworkMod recovery. The link to that file is in the wiki. Once you are in ClockworkMod Recovery you can proceed to wipe and install the update-cm-7.0.0-Slide-signed.zip

P.S: BTW you can't flash a permanent CWM Recovery on this device without being S-OFF. That's why for S-ON devices you always have to get into CWM Recovery from the Stock Recovery.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wase4711:
so, was having problems with my sd card today, so I formatted it on my mac, as fat32, then put all my backup files on it, and my phone can see it, and I am able to move files and programs to it, just like normal.

Only problem is, when I boot to recovery, to try and flash a zip file of any sort, I get a "error, sd card not mounted" message, and can't scroll to the root of the card to see anything..

when I formatted the card on my mac, I didn't make a partition on anything; I just formatted, gave it a name, and the phone saw it and recognizes it, except when I reboot into recovery...

Any suggestions on how I can get it to recognize itself in recovery?

Thanks!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] mchaos:
I seen a few threads on GPS fixes. I read them and still see some people having issues after applying fixes. I found out something interesting so it's my turn to post a fix for the GPS issue.

Here is what this will fix:

taking a long time to get a fix.

Not being able to keep a fix.

Not accurate data.

GPS consuming more battery then it should.

I can tell every one who is having trouble still right off the bat that they have their TB's overclocked.

I found out something interesting while trying to get from point a to point b a few days ago. All of a sudden I was having all sorts of issue that I never had before. After futzing around to try and find a solution I focused on the only thing different then usual.

I had my TB overclocked to 1.5GHZ when I normally don't go much higher then 1.2GHZ. mostly not to drain the battery.

My unit took several minutes to get a fix, and when it did, if I started moving again,(driving down the road) it completely lost the fix, or it was sporadic at best.

I lowered the clock speed to 1.2ghz. Killed all apps for a fresh start. Started navigate again, and I got a fix in less then 10 seconds. And it held a fix.

I put the clock speed back to 1.5ghz and I lost the fix again. Problems were occurring again.

I was able to get a good fix at 1.3ghz, but it took a tad longer, still under a minute to get a fix, but at 1.2 it works flawlessly.

Apparently the chipsets used for GPS don't like too high of a frequency above normal.

If anyone is having an issue with GPS, lower your cpu to 1.2ghz or lower. Kill all apps. then restart your GPS software.

Hope this helps any one having issues out!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mikeyinid:
Great theory, and may be true to an extent. I don't oc and today I could not get a lock to save my life. And I was in wide open lake country where a lock should have been instant.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sammyboy405:
Yea I dont OC at all and Still even with a couple of patches Ive tried, it still dont work right.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
My gps has never worked correctly since I got the phone. So interesting theory, but purely circumstantial and unscientific testing. The issue comes about from XTRA code being incomplete in the framework.jar. This is needed for fast locks. Secondly, the radio needs updating. Both are present in a yet unreleased TB ota.

Why you see wildly different results is that eventually, even a standalone gps locks. Fiddling with settings and so forth, you eventually get a lock. Once you have lock and keep it 'warm' with somewhat regular use, you get the illusion of your gps being fixed.

Yeah, I'll agree with everyone (minus the troll). The OC may be affecting your problem, or seem like it is. But, me, from the time I walked out of the store my GPS has not locked a single time. Glad I've still got my not-much-better fascinate to use nav with hhaha.

Currently, using the unreleased update I mentioned, I wait a maximum of 10 seconds on q cold lock, and I'm overlooked to 1.5ghz.

Excuse me if this info is posted else where but i have looked an struck out so far. Can anyone inform me as to a company that can an has unlocked a Tmobile g2x in particular since this is the phone i will be buying? Or the o2x ? For my traveling work i need my phone unlocked. An if its neccessary I can purchase one outright if T mobile will definatly give me a unlock code right after purchase. Thank you!

[LG Optimus 2x] teCnoLogic:
Same question. I bought an unlocked p990 and it's currently charging. Will it work perfectly fine on T-mobile or is there something special I need to do to it?:confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] *Omnipresent*:
A quick google search shows that nobody is selling the g2x unlocked as of today. Of course that will change sooner rather than later. If you buy from tmobile and pay for the g2x in full, you can request a lock code from tmobile, who will give you the unlock code in 30-90 days i believe.

If it is unlocked, you should be able to pop in a tmobile sim card and use it on tmobile's 3.5g network. You shouldn't have to do anything special.
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
I was told if you pay in full you will get the unlock code instantly....

JD
[LG Optimus 2x] *Omnipresent*:
Instantly? I hope that it is true. That would be awesome:D I've never heard of any American cellphone company providing instant unlock codes, for people who pay full price upfront. There is almost always some kind of waiting period, usually taking several weeks.
[LG Optimus 2x] JupiterDroid:
I was told you had to wait because tmobile have to see you have kept your account in good order, as your paying upfront and have no account they should do it straight away....

From the "About > Battery use" place I discovered that Display uses around 50%. I had my brightness settings set to auto always. Today I fully charged it and after an hour or so it was on 83%!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josibarns:
Well 86% after 4 hours is a great battery life! 96-86=10% It gives you (4/0.1) a theoretical battery life of 40 hours !!!

On the battery manager click on the graph to see what causes your battery life to decrease very fast: GPS, Wifi, Awake or Screen on.

I also noticed the battery meter app used quite a bit of energy you should remove it, remove also the task killer it may drain you battery as well.

[Xperia Play Android Development] Meister_Li:
Well, there we go. Dun wanna wait anymore, and I unfortunately are not too clever myself. :P So! I propose a root bounty. Whoever manages to root the device first and post a guide here will get it. If you don't have an Xperia play, I can do and upload dumps/test out new root methods for you if you contact me.

Some rules tho:

- It has to be possible for the average user without the use of additional hardware or commercial software (as in, software we have to buy)

- It doesn't have to work on devices that still have a locked bootloader, altho that would be very awesome.

- It has to work on the stock Sony Ericsson Software. Unless you can create a fully functional Cyanogenmod. :P Then I'll donate $100 to you instantly. :P

For starters, I throw $35 into the pot.

$20 by gnasher666
[Xperia Play Android Development] gnasher666:
I'll go $20 for root
[Xperia Play Android Development] johnsongrantr:
this will be a problem, there is most definately a sig check on the file it pushes to your phone through bundled software. A modified boot.img can be pushed and flashed to the phone with fastboot. Also the update software detects the fact you unlocked the bootloader and it basically doesn't work on those phones anymore.

not to **** in your cereal, but making a modified kernel and push through fastboot is just a matter of doing it, not a whole lot of skill will be required.

like I said in the fastboot thread, if someone who has not unlocked their bootloader can upload the recovery image package that the bundled software downloads and mirrors it, it will make things a lot quicker.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Meister_Li:
I'm aware of that. I just mean that we should still be able to use the normal Sony Ericsson Android software, so root on the current software of the phone, even if the boot image or kernel have been replaced with other ones.

I just want to avoid loopholes, like someone saying: "I got root! But only if you replace everything and don't actually plan on using your phone because nothing else works!" :P
