Instead of rewriting manuals here,

i just want to know where to start troubleshooting...Now his question is still not clear at all...

sounds like I can not wear my pants, what I'm doing wrong?

....

he didnt write what he was trying to do to fix it, but asking us
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrhalfdeadman:
Okay let me make things more clearer, The problem is the data wont work, and im signing into the correct gmail account but google servers will not accecpt it saying that I dont have a network connection. So right now all i can do is call out of my phone and text, and not use any of the data. when i switch over to my g2 it works perfectly so i know it isnt a problem with the service. My question is what do you all think i did wrong? and how can i fix this?

ive also tried to reflash MAGLDR so it would load up with the all the options so i could reflash the the rom but it just keeps loading up i know on the g1 when i use to have it there were buttons i pushed to open the bootloader are there the same things for the HD2. Thank you.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thierrytt:
I have the same problem - wifi ok but no data connection

Hey I have the same problem, everything works fine on WIFI but no connection, I got no sign 3 G, just the regular network.

Trying to figure it out
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
If you can call and text, but are unable to access the internet or send mms, then it sounds like an APN issue to me. If you do a search with the keyword 'APN', you should be able to find the settings tjat are right for your carrier
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thierrytt:
Thank you !,

Cool let me check it,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
Sounds like apn settings. On mine, its not that the auto settings don't work, but when it auto configures the apns it makes some incorrect ones too, some which have badly set "apn type", one that seems to be for iphone access only, and some that are incomplete (I get 7 o2 apns plus three piggy back apns, its crazy) which means some interfere with the correct ones until I delete the extras.

point being, just Cos the apn looks correct, it could be another one interfering.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thierrytt:
It works

Problem solved ! Just entered the APN as

Name: T-Mobile US

APN: epc.tmobile.com

THANK YOU !!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrhalfdeadman:
Yeah that was the same problem for me, thanks everyone.

one more question, when i want to change the android rom, what are the button to push to bring up the options so i can usb flash another rom?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nickyg008:
If using mag you hold the power button to bring up the options menu. On clk you hold home button. Have you had a look at access point names under mobile networks in wireless networks.could just be that your apn is not set up correctly. Sorry about the brief answer earlier was at work.usually task 29 has helped me in past so thats why I suggested it, network and battery drainage.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
Why do people not read all post before posting? I am noticing this more and more. If you would have read the two posts previous to your last post, #15 and #16 you would see that the APN settings was the problem and they already have the problem fixed.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
what, , no task29? *cough*, ill get me coat.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrhalfdeadman:
Do you have a problem with sending out photos from text messages too? or is it working just fine with you?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
LOL it's because you and I have been around here a little while. Back when I first got my Kaiser (which I still have lol) I read up a bit to figure out how to put a custom WM6.1 rom on it, and saw tons of posts flaming the noobs with 2 or 3 posts under their avatar asking a question that had been answered a hundred times already, so I knew better than to just ask. I WOULD SEARCH AND READ FIRST. And if I didn't find the answer right away, I would search and read some more, then maybe ask.

This site has exploded since Android got hot, now there's a million people who just bought their first smartphone who don't understand the forum etiquitte of "search, read, search, read, then ask in the correct forum if you really need to".

I don't mind helping people, but it does bug me when someone says 'i want to put android on my phone. Can you just tell me how?'

I feel like saying hell no, is there a thumbtack next to my name? No theres not, cause I'm not a sticky thread. Go find one of those and it'll tell you how.

Ok rant over lol.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dkephart:
From the Way Off Track Department: (@huggs and the numerous helpful senior members in this thread) you will agree that there are the quick little things that no-one has ever encountered (but you) ... Noob is not knowledge-less, just experience-less.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] huggs:
I totally agree, it's those things that I actually enjoy helping people with, the little quirks that people run into when getting Android or another OS on their WM phone, or problems that don't seem to go away no matter what you try.

My rant wasn't meant to be against noobs, just against anybody who wants the info that's already on this site to be served up to them instead of finding it on their own. If I offended anyone unnecessarily, I sincerely apologise.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgrdrgrss:
Hi guys, I hope u can help me with this.

You see, every time I tried to open Music app on my SGT, I encounter force closes. I tried restart the SGT but same problems appear.

It is said that "The application Music (process com.android.music) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

Does anyone can extract the original APK for me? Much appreciated.

ps: I'm on original ROM. :D

Btw, I managed to install the 'honeycomb' version of MUSIC so consider my post to be SOLVED. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jflassche:
Probabely quite simple but I can't seem to figure it out... :s

Where do personal (ie .mp3) notifications and ringtones go?

/mnt/sdcard/media/audio/notifications doesn't seem to work.

Neither does writing the different folders with or without capitals.

I've tried several other combinations as well (/mnt/sdcard/audio, /mnt/sdcard/notifications, etc.)

It used to work on 2.2 and come to think of it broke with the upgrade to 2.2.1.

Is there anyone here who can help me?

Sincerely yours,

Jeroen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Usual is System/media/ audio

For >> alarms >> ringtones >> notifications>>UI

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeetu1981:
And your phone should be rooted and a root explorer is required for this.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jflassche:
Thank you for your responses.

My phone is rooted and I already tried pushing the files onto /system

However it should (and used to) work by putting the audio files *somewhere* on /mnt/sdcard - but where?!

The HTC uses that /UI kind of folder structure. The i9000 uses (so it seems) a different one. Android 2.2 allowed me to put audio notification files in /mnt/sdcard/notifications.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jflassche:
I see. I'm currently on 2.3.3 any idea on how to make it work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You would need to open a 2.3.3 rom and locate the files .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jflassche:
I think I'm being misunderstood...

Where can I put .mp3 files on /mnt/sdcard so they show up in notifications selection list on a i9000 running 2.3.3?

I know where to put these files using root access on /system. So no need to look 'in' a 2.3.3 ROM ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
Its weird this because I had though the opposite. MP3 tones that I made in ringmaker that appeared in the ringtone list on my previous ROM (MIUI) appeared in the notifications list not ringtones!

Anyway, for me its sd/media/audio and I have a /ringtones and /notifications folder in there. They didn't appear until a reboot after I lagfixed though
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jflassche:
@branalvere And are you running 2.3.3 Gingerbread?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isotoper:
Hello,

I'm trying to Restore one of my backups from recovery and after reboot, the phone stuck on the white HTC screen, It happen to all the backups I have.

It's the first time this is happen, I managed to do that before without problems.

My recovery version is 3.0.1.5 and always has been (I didn't upgrade/downgrade) it ever.

I'm able to install a new fresh ROM, but I'm not able to Recover and this is very important for me.

I read other threads about it but neither are solving my issue.

Please advice.

Thanks!!!

(The backups are Coredroid and RCMixHD both Gingerbread).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
I had the same problem and solved it by first flashing the old, clean ROM (in my case RCMix) and after the first successful boot restoring only data and system (in CWM "backup and restore" -> "advanced restore"). And I suppose if you restore system, the backup should be the same ROM as the one you have installed.

After that everything worked fine again...something must be wrong with CWM, seriously...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isotoper:
yes, but from then, are you able to do Restore as regular, like you did before without any problems ?

Or that only your system is working but your'e still unable to do restores ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Well I am unable to do a complete restore, but it works when I first install the ROM and afterwards manually restore system and data. So I have got everything set up as if I did a normal restore.

It's almost the same as a regular restore any way, you won't notice any difference.

I will take a look into the CWM backups, maybe I'll find the reason for this bug.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isotoper:
thanks, that's nice, it's not so comfortable, but if I wont have a choice I will do that.

In the meanwhile I prefer fixing this issue, anything can do to fix it ?

(Strange, but my problem has been started since I'm using RCMix, may something in this ROM conflicts with CWM?!)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty_ice:
Quite the same here, I'm using RCMix too. But it might just be a random correlation, unless more people have this problem.

Until it is fixed I will just use my workaround, it is not too much trouble luckily :D

Oh yeah and I took a look in my backups. On the surface everything seems to be in order....
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
I'm using CM7 and have no problem restoring my Nandroid backup, so IMHO it may be a specific issue with RCMix
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] isotoper:
Ok guys, problem has been solved by installing the latest recovery version from Rom Manager app. Then restart, wipe and... Restore successfully.

I still suspect the RCMixHD, because the problem has been started since I have installed it, maybe it changed something in the CWM, I'm afraid to reinstall it now :D , I'm sticking with Coredroid 5.3 ;)

The simplest solution would be for someone to compile AOSP libssl.so with the patch and redistribute this library with a simple ADB script to get it running on your phone. Presumably you'll need root though. A complete custom ROM isn't really necessary.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanicoenfer:

What kernel are you using?? im on 9.3 with dark core 1.4,, i find in take sometimes weeks to see the full result of battery after changing roms/ kernels.. My opinon is darkys 9.3 with speedmod K13c kernel was the best setup, still after wiping batt stats it was a week b4 the full potential of the battery was seen. Also make sure you follow the steps to wipe battery,, ie turn fone off and charge to full then extra 1/2 hour b4 wiping stats.

I just upgraded from the official optus 2.2 JP5 (i think) to the JVK 2.3.3 (its european) and the rom itself is working perfectly I can call text but can't get a data connection even when roaming is turned on. I also have a 3g symbol up the top which is weird because it's saying i have connection. YES i have selected my APN again when i flashed the rom with odin i didn't flash the CSC and PHONE is this why? i thought they were just for if you live in europe. thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dopeee:
yeah i know there are some compatibility issues when you just flash PDA if it doesnt already have a modem and CSC. Its best to just reflash JVK with the modem and csc from JP5 if you dont want to change.

But check your APN setting to see if its correct. I upgraded my brothers phone and I noticed the APN setting was incorrect (was set to internet instead of yesinternet).

Yup, I have but on a bigger scale for my laptop and other chargables while camping with 1957 travel trailer (no real moder electric system) My sytem has a 18 volt panel that charges a deep cycle battery, then I use the battery to charge my laptop and other accessories via thier 12 volt car chargers.

I have also purchased a few smaller portable panel and battery sytems for my Android phone. The best I have found is made by Solio.

I am interested in the details of your setup becaouse the Nook power requirements are in between my current setups.

Does your panel charge a storage battery? And what are your input and output specs?

Sounds cool, I love this stuff. :)

+1 to being interested in a write-up/parts guide to something like this. I love tinkering, and so something like this would be alot of fun to make...
[Nook Color Accessories] DDowns:
Sorry to get back to you so late... Each panel puts out 200 mA;wired in parallel, with a Schottky diode 5819 on each, for a total 400 mA @ 6V and a resistor for a slight voltage-drop. Also wired in a standard USB type "A" receptacle to provide charging power from the panels to other USB devices like my phone etc. I've not had issues like others regarding the Nook Color being picky about chargers since installing the Customized Nookie FroYo eMMC distro. Got the panels from eBay:

cgi.ebay.com/New-1-PCS-6V-200mA-1-2W-Solar-Panel-Power-Cell-Charger-/160534678523?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item25609ccbfb

Hope that answers it for ya. Been working GREAT for me.

I have to say... Soldering pins and resistors onto a mini-USB connector, at my age with my eye-sight issues SUCKS! ;)

Bought the kit. Going to try 'er out!
[Nook Color Accessories] DDowns:
Cool! Let me know how it turns out.
[Nook Color Accessories] ace7196:
Just soldered and wired it up. Works great! Might grab some more and make a switch to change between 2000 mA and 500 mA :D

Pretty easy to do. Put them in parallel, attach diodes on positive side, and connect 5V and ground to usb!
