[Defy General] Deonix:
I have my Defy for 2 weeks now, getting used to my first Android device. It has stock Blurred Rom with android 2.1. I bought it from Cosmote in Romania with a 500 mb data plan.

After seeing that my Cost Info shows different values i reset my Data manager on the phone and took a closer look. in 3 days i used 10 mb according to my Data manager and aprox 30 acording to my Carrier Cost Info.

I think i should rule out any sofware malfunction or malware/virus no? I say this because Cosmote is well known in my country for "frauding" customer's data plans in the past.

Because Cosmote is the 3rd operator in my country after Vodafone and Orange it didn't have a 3G capable network upon a year ago when they bought Zapp Mobile. They were used to making call minutes disappear from data plans, i'm wondering if they passed to Mb now? As foolish as it may sound.

I'm going tomorrow to talk to them, see what can be done. Has anyone, especially using a Defy with Cosmote Rom. had similar problems?
[Defy General] henkholland:
First of all, get the APP Trafficcounter from the Market. It is free and it does a very accurate counting of Call, Cell(Data), Wifi and SMS for me.

I am not familiar with Cosmote.
[Defy General] Deonix:
Found out, "Case Closed"

Thanks. I found out today... the ugly truth. Cosmote charges by the MB. for every use no matter if it was 10 kb or 500.. on my type of data plan ( SmartPhone data plan... what a joke indeed). The problem is that this thing: tax/Mb is not stipulated in the contract. I will seek legal advice, maybe i cand end my contract and choose a different carrier.

Topic Closed but maybe it helps others.

I am moving to Spain to stay for a year, and I am searching for a cell provider with a good 3g plan. I will not make to much calls, but unlimited data is crucial. Can anyone suggest me witch cell company I must search?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] loger8:
Mmm vodafone may be suitable for you... it's the most expnsive in calls, but the internet is just 10 euros per month... you should research in their webpages anyway
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] zapek666:
Anything but vodafone. If you have a problem with them, like a wrong bill you want to contest, you have to go through their horrible phone "support" line. They have no offices to handle customer complaints.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] louiscypherbr:
Thank you for informations. 10euros/month is fine to me, if there is no data limit. About the horrible call center, I can asure you that here in Brazil we are all accustomed to the worst possible attendances.

ok this is really bothering me. My GPS never gets a lock with any application!! I'm running the community rom. Ec01 radio. I never tried my gps before I flashed. Help please.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craleb:
I was gong to buy gps aids v2 but idk might just be a waste of time and money.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 150kmph:
There is a free version of GPSAids as well. That is what I used and went through the setup. It fixed my GPS. I don't seem to get a lock indoors where I don't have good 3G signal (even with Wifi turned on), but works like a charm when I have good signal.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slapout:
Anytime I can't get a fix, I run the app "GPS Status" and that usually fixes it.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craleb:
Thanks for the replies! I used GPS Status and it worked!
[Nexus S General] pkilla:
I just manually did mines it feels pretty good to be on

2.3.4 but I haven't really notice to much of a difference

Got to give it time I guess let me know what y'all think
[Nexus S General] randy92:
Its goin good for me... on other radio it would go back and forth from H to 3g now its more stable... other than that no color change like others have reported
[Nexus S General] Finom:
Randy what carrier do you have?

GPS is more responsive. I'm hoping it fixes my call problems (I get soundwave voices when the call doesn't connect properly). Overall not too bad
[Nexus S General] pkilla:
It feels a little faster I'm on T-Mobile forget waiting for a over the air update just

do it manually its so easy its so easy feels good to have a phone that gets updates

Quicker then others
[Nexus S General] kaizxclusive:
I updated manually. found a little colour change from 2.3.3 which was good. Gtalk is pretty goood, no lag at all.
[Nexus S General] :
You can finally delete your Tags now, btw.
[Nexus S General] OuncE718:
I'm just glad that there is no more reboots. I do dislike the fact that Google did not address the laggy browser issue though.
[Nexus S General] Smokexz:
Browser is still laggy, the colour has changed indefinitely( I cannot tell if it's for the better or worse, really hard to tell without a side by side comparison, someone with two Nexus S devices should do a comparison and post on here), GPS locks within 2-5 seconds much faster now, G Chat video is lag free however I have not tested on 3g with another Nexus S device, still no Facebook sync support, and no Chrome syncing. Overall I believe Google was smart to make this a small update, besides the fact that they launched Mobile G Video chat, that would have been smart tl put on the next version of Android, but they treated it as such a minor thing. Still the update just fixed bugs and added G Video, next update BETTER fix the keyboard though.

[Nexus S General] randy92:
T-Mobile :D
[Nexus S General] SpookyTunes:
Video Apps broke

Ustream's GoLive just force close now. I think Tango and Fring also quit working. Still, the WiFi improvement and GTalk update made this worth while for me!
[Nexus S General] gogol:
Oh no, I am gonna test Tango because I like it more than GTalk to do video calling to Android

and

iOS.
[Nexus S General] j0hnZ:
Can anyone confirm fring not working? Is this a feature removal update?
[Nexus S General] leonlmf:
fring doesn't work while video chat activity got fc
[Nexus S General] kms108:
i have noticed 3 main differences.

improved the reception during calls

improved earpiece, the sound is louder and clearer

and a bug fix, some ppl who uses the european f/w have noticed the wording when you connect the usb as a mass storage, previously it always says usb connected on/off (forgot which one), whether it's enabled or not, now the wording is corrected.
[Nexus S General] Harshwardhan:
I am unable to get facebook account synchronization to work.
[Nexus S General] msquare:
I never seem to get H, but only 3G. I've just got this phone, looked up this forum, and upgraded to 2.3.4. On my previous phone (Desire), i used to get H at home, but only 3G now. Is this a common problem or just coz of 2.3.4?
[Nexus S General] pullermann:
You probably still get "H" but it's just showing the "3G" symbol. I had a Desire too before and my new Nexus S behaves just like yours, based on speeds I'm pretty sure to be on HSDPA though...
[Nexus S General] msquare:
Thanks pullermann. Looking at the speeds, I agree that they look more like "H" than "3G". Was just a bit concerned..
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
The connection icon will say "3G" when you are connected to UMTS or HSPA. It will never say "H" unless you happen to be running custom firmware that has added that in.

EDIT: You can check network type by going to Menu > Settings > About phone > Status > Mobile network type. It will say either EDGE (2G), UMTS (3G), or HSDPA (also 3G).
[Nexus S General] michalst:
Thats right, i'm running rooted stock have tried CM7 and with it i have a H showing, but not with stock image, there is only 3G but speed is H.
[Nexus S General] bolabola118:
For those of you who are complaining about the laggy browser.. download Opera mobile (not the mini version).. ITS AWESOME
[Nexus S General] JuWa:
There is no fb sync in nexus phones. It wasn't in 2.3.3 either.
[Nexus S General] tomppi:
+1
[Nexus S General] graphreak:
I've updated to 2.3.4 and rooted & done CWM 3.0.2.4 also.

No other tweaks at all.

This certainly feels significantly zippier than any stock 2.3.3 I've used,

except maybe for the GRI54 that Master had put together.

Just my personal experience.
[Nexus S General] Vandam500:
Guess who got just a random reboot...
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Ok, then why is it that on 2.3.3 and below I had HSDPA in the Status meniu, but now I have UMTS ? Is it just my phone or... ?
[Nexus S General] Smokexz:
A big downside to this update is that the G Talk app is only working on wifi only for us T-Mobile subscribers ( which is surprising considering Google uses T-Mobile a whole lot I would assume that they tested it through their network but apparently not)

Sent from my Xoom
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
It shows what type of network you are connected to are that particular moment in time. It just means you are connected to UMTS at the moment.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Att white nexus s here. Looks like the 2.3.4 radio has hsupa enabled unlock virgin stock out of box was. No need to flash kb3 anymore.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Also m.Facebook.com seems to think its a galaxy s 2
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
Well yea, I know that. But now it shows UMTS everywhere I had HSDPA earlier on 2.3.3. It hasn't shown HSDPA on 2.3.4 at all. So what gives ?

LE: Scratch that. Interestingly enough, it now shows HSDPA where I used to have it. But yesterday it didn't show it. Strange.
[Nexus S General] Cmmts:
Yeah, the only thing is that I think it is totally reasonable to expect Google's flagship phone and it's software function the way it is meant to. Why should I download a third party browser, HTC has managed to keep it's browsers lag free - Google should be able to do that also. I hope they get their act together in the next update.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
It is more likely related to network variations than OS changes.
[Nexus S General] vbhoj74:
I was on 2.3.3 rooted stock with netarchy, had to start from scratch for this upgrade. Now with 2.3.4 my pptp vpn would not work properly, it connects but I get one way audio using a SIP client. I guess netarchy fixed it for me before. But I'm not loading any custom kernel or making changes to any system app as I dont wish to start scratch again with next update. Also gtalk app does not yet got option to add secondary gmail accounts.
[Nexus S General] jivemaster:
The overall phone experience does feel better. More speed, browser is a little better. The gtalk video is fantastic. Loving it heaps. Makes the phone feel more complete and makes it possibly the best communication device on the market.

All we really need is our hardware acceleration and things will fall into place from there.

And yes - the browser still needs severe fixing. But that won't be possible until hardware acceleration comes in ice cream. Which begs the question: is 2.4 even close? Makes me concerned in some ways regarding their release of 2.3.4 featuring gtalk video, almost as if this release has popped out because 2.4 is far from being finished. I hope not!
[Nexus S General] CrkZ1207:
Wifi seems too be working better than before. I have a really weak signal from my room. Before then it kept disconnecting now its much better. Other then that I wish they would be much more consistent with updates to throw in much more features.
[Nexus S General] asafru:
does this mean that the new radio XXKD1 is better than the XXKB1/3?

I was wondering that in case I wanted to update the radio as is, stand alone...
[Nexus S General] vbhoj74:
I can confirm that both L2TP and PPTP is working for me using Acrobit SIP clients. I'm using Nexus S, rooted, running stock 2.3.4. I'm connecting to a pfsense firewall & an asterisk server.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Is it me is the in call speaker volume increased? I like it!
[Nexus S General] mastiff78:
This 2.3.4 update certainly solved my GPS issues. I now get GPS lock within seconds, and that's awesome.

Gtalk video is clear and loud, tried it on 3G with my brother on desktop.

However I just noticed a new problem with my Sync since this update. My gmail contact sync is not working now :( I wonder if others noticed the same problem or not.

Other than that, this update made gingerbread more snappy and better in my opinion.
[Nexus S General] ventz:
Try Dolphin HD. It's better than most computer browsers.
[Nexus S General] :
The last update broke Dolphin for me and it still doesn't work. I can't live without tabs so I recommend Miren.
[Nexus S General] lambda30:
The ear-piece call volume has increased.

Scratch that again, lol. It jumps back and forth from UMTS to HSDPA without any reasonable explanation. I mean... I'm standing just on my chair in front of my PC, where I had HSDPA every time till 2.3.4 and now sometimes it shows HSDPA, sometimes UMTS. So something is indeed wrong. I don't think it's the network variations, because the signal strength remains the same, aprox. 11 asu, -91dBm, with +- 2 asu. I haven't seen any connection between signal strength and the UMTS/HSDPA writing.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
My GPS in maps takes over 45 seconds to lock. in MyTracks it picks up much faster. hmph..
[Nexus S General] Cmmts:
Please, everybody that has the browser issues, star this. That is the best way to keep reminding Google on the seriousness of this issue.

3 days on 2.3.4 - no reboots yet
[Nexus S General] palesz53:
system feels a bit faster :D

but latitude always run :confused: it started after 2.3.4 had been installed - tried force close (gmaps also), but some mins later it runs again... :eek:
[Nexus S General] Nexus-S:
Can't tell any difference between 2.3.4 and 2.3.3.

I've noticed no difference except it ruined my screens colors.....
[Nexus S General] lcr44ramirez:
I got a random re-boot yesterday while I was using the YouTube app.
[Nexus S General] lcr44ramirez:
Robstunner can I have your battery cover!!! ^_^
[Nexus S General] alpharesearch:
I have T-MOBILE USA and I have unlimited data plan, why is the video with gtalk not working over 3G? Fring and Tango works just fine? I dislike all the carriers, but I thought T-Mobile was the least worst one. I guess I was wrong, or is att already pulling some strings? However if third party can do video over 3g I don't see why not Google too. Please FCC do something, I hope all the rotten politicians don't get elected no more.
[Nexus S General] nico98:
I have had 2 reboots since I upgraded.
[Nexus S General] Nexus MC:
I got OTA update from 2.3.2 to 2.3.4.

But my battery life has gone down considerably. Not sure some are experiencing the same.
[Nexus S General] dindindores:
Yep, i have 2.3.4 OTA, then rooted and i like it.

Small issues:

GPS is only to 5meter level. Sometimes even 10. Somewhat unprecise.

Gtalk works fine over 3g but only front camera. Iphone can switch between front and rear! The rear camera gives a lot better resolution...

Battery is no problem, more then overnight...
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
I'm not sure if it's because of 2.3.4 or not, but it has been misbehaving for me the past few days.
[Nexus S General] MarkusPO:
i love the little yellow pointer thing that appears when you click in the middle of something you've typed. i found it really difficult to position the cursor where i wanted it to type extra characters or whatever. now i just click and use the pointer to position it where i want. genius!
[Nexus S General] ArchiCam:
I'm rooted with stock 2.3.4. Everything was working great until today. Now my phone reboots every 5 minutes while I am on a call. Is anyone else having this problem? It is incredibly annoying!

Is the issue with video chat over 3g T-Mobile fixed?

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
T-Mobile does not support Google Talk video chat over 3g. So there is no "issue" to "fix."

You can hack around it though. Some people have had success. Just do a search, there are threads about around here.
[Nexus S General] ctai320:
Does anyone know if fring fixed the fc for video and audio chatting with 2.3.4? I keep rejecting the ota update for this.
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Fixed it. I just needed to get outside. Locks in seconds!
[Nexus S General] robstunner:
Sure. $545 and ill throw in the phone too :)
[Nexus S General] zorak950:
That's been in 2.3 since the beginning. I have noticed, however, that the cursor and the arrow don't actually track one another very well in 2.3.4. A lot of the time the cursor will be one place and the arrow will be halfway across the screen. Moving the arrow still moves the cursor, but it's waaaay offset from its actual position. This happens mostly when inputting text on webpages in the stock browser for me.
[Nexus S General] harsaphes:
Hey guys. Since the update If i try to use Facebook or Foursquare to "checkin" somewhere my phone constantly searches for my location and finds nothing. No places load near me or even where I am at, at the moment. Everything in Settings is set correctly. What gives?..Also my wifi at home no longer works, even though the phone finds the signal and say I'm connected.

Oh, If the place I'm at has Wifi, the above check-ins work.

Ideas?
[Nexus S General] :
Seems faster :-)
[Nexus S General] p00kienrayray:
i don't know if this has been mentioned on this forum or not, but when using Tango video calling on 2.3.4, the front cam records everything upside down. I contacted the dev team and they told me that its a known issue for 2.3.4 and they're working on it.
[Nexus S General] oferico1:
does not work for me either :(
[Nexus S General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
I like Cyanogen 7.1 that's all I can say. I'm not sure how stable the NS builds are but i've used it on another phone and while it has more memory issues for slower devices, the new CM features are great. I love it. Plus who doesn't love video chat?
[Nexus S General] kwhy:
going from 2.3.2 to 2.3.4...I'm having a few issues that I never had before with 2.3.2. Anyone else having any of these issues now?

--------------------------------------------------------------

(01) PHOTO LOSS - random picture/ video loss. Pictures being deleted from phone when gallery program is rescanning thumbnails ect..

I can't figure out what triggered this, but I lost most of my 1 GIG photos / video, luckily most backed up last month and I could recover most with a windows file restore program. This has happened twice within the past week after updating.

I think this might be related to #2 below. I've noticed that the Gallery APP sometimes also re-arranges the files or folders (non sorted) typically when it is re-scanning the media, but occasionally this is happening on the Gallery load up which leads me to believe there is something broken.

--------------------------------------------------------------

(02) USB DEBUG / CONNECTION - I have to now reboot my phone everyday to trigger USB connection / debugging mode. My phone will charge from USB, but won't trigger connection unless I reboot the phone. This NEVER happened on 2.3.2.

I'm 100% certain this has nothing to do with my USB drivers because I can connect every time 1rst try right after I reboot my phone.

I'm wondering if this might be the cause of the loss of photos above. Some connection issues or locked HD and maybe gallery trying to rescan the drive...causing issues.

** NOTE ** I've also noticed when my phone is unable to connect via USB above (charge mode via USB) then my phone will NOT shut down or reboot. It stays locked into the POWER OFF (shutting down) screen until I unplug the USB (original cable) cable. As soon as I unplug the USB cable it shuts down.

--------------------------------------------------------------

(03) COLORS CHANGES - I know this might be more of a preference rather than a bug and maybe by now most people are content with the changes, but I'm not on my phone. Almost a deal killer for me.

---------------------------------------------------------------

(04) various issues that seem to pop up like the alarm clock popping up randomly and set to home button. I think this might be a launcher pro bug. Seems to be related to low memory maybe.

----------------------------------------------------------------

overall I wasn't having any issues with 2.3.2 and now its like each day I run into some new bug.
[Nexus S General] ronnienyc:
what browser lag??

I am on 2.3.4, and with the Nexus sitting right next to the Evo (both on WiFi) the Nexus is marginally faster than the Evo when using the web browser. I see no lags at all, though I do prefer the Evo's browser for other reasons...
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedoman:
yesterday iwasaperson was extremely helpful to me. Thanks. I took my fascinate back to stock 2.1 and allowed it to update to 2.2. I then rooted my phone by flashing CWM recovery using ODIN. (red version) I had installed two files to root of drive one update.zip and the other for rooting the phone Su-----.zip. I ran them using the red version and restarted the phone. The phone is now rooted but I can't get back to CWM recovery.

I tried the following: I have ROM manager and flashed CWM but it wom't take. If I try to go into recovery I get the stock Samsung blue menu. I am thinking I need a different (CWM recovery comptabile) kernel or mod to get this to work.

Can someone help?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saf66:
You need to flash a kernel other than stock, rebooting with the stock kernel will revert back to blue recovery
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djlim4:
why dont you just flash CWM in odin again?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedoman:
I have flashed CWM again with odin. It still won't take
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KitsuneKnight:
This (though in reverse order).

You need to reflash CWM by odin, go into Odin immediately upon the first boot (not using Rom Manager!), and flash a new kernel from the SDcard. The stock kernel will trash CWM if it gets a chance to boot.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedoman:
saf66. any ones in mind and where I can obtain them. And as if I weren't asking enough questions. (Sorry I know I am) Methods to flash them?

Or any others of you please
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saf66:
Go into development at the top of page open stickies and nitsu has a list of kernels,a well as roms
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saf66:
Thedoman

Download the kernel you want , then odin cwr,boot into recovery, flash kernel and then reboot phone

Have you guys hear there is a new Gingerbread leaked rom for DHD (build 187331) and apparently it's NOT a test rom?

Quote from http://pocketnow.com

"Today, thanks to a pocketnow tipster, we've learned that another Gingerbread build has leaked. This time it's reportedly much more complete, and could likely be the final release. Dubbed "build 187331" the ROM is the World-Wide English version 2.36.405.8 and includes an updated version of the phone's radio."
