[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuscani06:
I have not had this problem once since i received the unit on Thursday. I have even connected it up to 4 different wifi networks and have not had a problem reconnecting to my home when i return.

It could be your access point causing the issue. When i first got my Epic 4g, it could not keep a connection to my 6 year old linksys router. I then purchased a buffalo tech N router and have not had any problems since. The Epic and Transformer now behave as they should.

Try updating the firmware on your wifi unit or purchase a new one.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E46M3:
I'll see if my firmware is up to date on my router. hopefully that's the problem... but that doesn't explain the other problem, It shuts off by itself.

Do any of yours shut themselves off after say a night of no use?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HasC:
The only time I noticed mine shutting off was when I carried it in a bag but I think this was caused by pressure on the power button whilst in transit, never noticed it any other time.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timtlm:
My wife's android phone had a similar issue with wifi. It wouldn't reconnect after going into standby, and I would have to reboot the phone. I just set the wifi sleep policy to never, which is the same preference I have on my phone. Honestly there is very little effect to battery life on an android phone. However, if wifi shuts off on a phone it would just use 3g instead also using battery. I assume if the wifi goes asleep on the tablet, you lose any push notifications. I plan on leaving mine on for notifications. (Getting delivered today)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoBrA2168:
Definitely a faulty unit, mine is always connected to WiFi when I wake it. Never had it turn off on its own either.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
Make sure wifi sleep policy is set to never, and if you're still having issues, I'd do a wipe of the device could just be some corrupted app or file.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Visual360:
Doesn't sound normal at all. Tough decision as you can't just return it and get another because of the short supply. So far my transformer is exceeding my expectations. This is one hell of a deal at $399, and really makes you wonder what other manufacturers are thinking charging a tablet more than $400.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushrat67:
I don't know about your wifi issue but the sleep problem is a known issue that many others have had problems with. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

There have been updates to the Wifi driver in the last two FOTAs, maybe when ASUS re-releases those updates it might help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E46M3:
I did do a master reset and the problem did not go away. and my trans in on never disconnect wifi mode. i'll try another reset tonight see if that helps. maybe i still have some battery saver app that's screwing everything up. this sucks! if i can't get this fixed, i'll return it and get one later when the stock is replinished. The initial honeymoon period is about worn off anyway, i can wait now...:mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omguss:
Have you tried this on a different router? The problem may be with the router instead of your tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E46M3:
no, i haven't, I think there's a new firware update for my router which I'll try tonight. hopefully that fixes the wifi problem. but i still have the shut off problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustindw:
Mine did this to me once or twice - but I think it is related to the lock screen issue described elsewhere in the forum. Basically, when I got up in the morning, it appeared to be "off" - but I think it was just an issue powering up the screen. I had to hold the power button for a good 10 seconds (to actually shut it down) and then power it back on.

I disabled the lock screen and haven't had the problem since then. I'd really like to re-enable the lock screen though at some point, so I hope they get the issue resolved.

Definitely seems like a bug - but certainly not something that has cropped up for me since disabling the lock screen.

i cant not post in the developments section, i dont have enough posts..

i was following the "Guide to permaroot, s=off AND s=on!!!!!" i have placed the root folder on the sd card, i have visionaryplus installed.. ive ran visionaryplus and set the r/w option and rooted.. but everytime i go to run terminal emulator, it says

process com.android.term has stopped unexpectedly... any ideas?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdkoren:
Are you using the Terminal Emulator by Jack Palevich? I haven't used any others, but this one has never given me problems.

While you're figuring this out, I suggest you take a look at this thread and use the gfree script instead of root.sh to get S-OFF. The process is basically the same: temproot with visionary, run script, permroot with visionary.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gd6noob:
instead to put whatever files in the data/local (coz i dont have root explorer and its a paid app) can i just leave all the files in the folder and just execute the mention filename?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gd6noob:
ok this is what im doing

downloaded root file and placed it on the root sd card

installed visionary+ (first i was using build 11, not im using the lastest, 14)

i have it temp rooted, got into my terminal emulator

i typed the following

su (got super user)

cd /sdcard/root

sh root.sh

everything on screen is what is should be, i turn off the phone, turned it on while holding the volume down+power but s=on.. ive done this 8-10 times and still the same thing.. it wont go s=off
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gd6noob:
anyone have any ideas?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Yes, once you've ran the script go to visionary and hit "attempt permroot now"
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paso876:
The funny thing with rooting is different methods work for different phones. I tried that method as well & it would not stick, so I suggest you follows Jdkoren's advice & try the method he copied the link for. Just read through thoroughly & then give it a shot
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmholly:
this is the method that i used and it would not stick untill i figured out it should be "./gfree -f" then it worked fine.

I'm a noob too and rooted my phone for the first time last weekend. Link above worked flawlessly if followed to the tee.

I also tried the sh root.sh process you cite and never could get it to work. As I said I used the above link but installed Visionary 14 instead 11 and it worked fine. I did however buy RootExplorer and subsequently ROM Manager.

I also flashed the engineering bootloader per some responses to my thread. http://www.teamroyal.net/engboot.html

btw, if you have RootExplorer you don't need to ADB push the file to data/local for this step. I put it on my SD card and used root explorer to move to data/local.

I have RoyalGinger 1.6 installed and loving it. Massively improved battery life compared to original TMO junk. I can probably go for more than a day without charging.

Good luck. Rooting the first time is a bit scary. The entire process probably took me longer than an hour. Now, I feel I could repeat in 10 minutes. Doing it is learning it!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
I had some reservations about buying some apps on market, but i would say if you buy any apps for rooting a phone that root explorer is a must. I now use it all the time to move around files for doing themes and reorganizing. Titanium backup is also worth it imo. Havent paid for rom manager though, dont see an immediate need to buy it.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] scarmona:
We all agree that we love our Galaxy S devices (or we wouldn't read nor post anything in these forums), but also we all have bugs or certain issues that we'd like to know how to fix or have resolved (not just GPS or battery drain issues people) to make it even more useful in our daily life.

I thought this thread could be useful to help each other give solutions or advice on small but relevant functions of our phones.

I'll start with:

- enabling Skype calls over bluetooth headsets

- I'd really like to have a smooth connection between the phone and the official samsung car dock, most of the time it enters car mode but exits immediately after, forcing me to disconnect and reconnect the dock until it stays properly, I'm assuming a background app or service is causing this but I haven't discovered it yet.

- Still on the car dock issue, I find very annoying having to listen to interference through my car speakers when the phone is not playing any media. Anyone know a fix for this? (besides muting the car audio)

That's it for me for now. Your turn people!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dogans:
Tbh, Im very happy with my SGS atm.

I was getting a bit bored with 2.2 and 2.2.1, but with 2.3.3 I've added a custom theme (with screen off animation) and some awesome flying animations and wow, the phone feels brand new.

Love the free calls to people with Skype and the free "texts" to people with gtalk.

Saves me a lot on the bill.

Never been happier :)

I have an external one, thats the wierd thing!
[LG Optimus 2x] ironman159:
Could any of you help me?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
First u need a physical sdcard, not the internal sdcard.

If u have a physical sdcard and still cannot mount in recovery, perform the following workaround.

Workaround

1. Power off phone

2. Power up directly to recovery by pressing power button and volume down key.

3. You should now be able to mount sdcard
[LG Optimus 2x] stevvie:
I've NEVER been able to mount my 16gig class10 card in Clockworkmod recovery, I just thought it was something wrong with the O2X version of Clockworkmod recovery. I have tried both Pauls and official. It makes no difference if I use the app to reboot to recovery or if I hold down power/Vol down.
[LG Optimus 2x] ironman159:
I am not able to get into the reovery by holding the vol down and the power button it just stucks at Lg logo i have waited for 5 mins but nothing happned. I am able to get into the recovery via Rom manager but sdcard cannot be mounted. This is wierd.
[LG Optimus 2x] scsp:
have you guys formatted the SD cards before usage? I hear that helps in cases the phone does not recognize the card.
[LG Optimus 2x] ironman159:
Solved I upgraded my phone with Lg update to V10c and pushed modaco recovery then rebooted to recovery via Rom Manager and I am backuping my system now. But I am still not able to go into the recovery by pressing the vol down and power button at the same time.

[Galaxy S II General] kersh:
No, they didnt match me even the 499 of amazon uk saying:

"Unfortunately we are unable to price match with Amazon on this occasion as they are known to sell items that have been imported from the Asian market. This means that they can offer no UK warranty or UK support. Our products come with a full UK warranty and full UK support."

Dishonest liars.
[Galaxy S II General] Baggyb:
I very much doubt that as O2 are selling a PAYG handset and not a SIMFREE handset.

By their reckoning you will be locked to O2 for at least 12 months before you could officially get it unlocked by them.

I'm sure you'd be able find an unlock solution sooner though ;)

[Galaxy S II General] bsb1:
I think the ppl at Handtec are just simply giving out information as yesterday i receive an email from them saying that they do expect to fulfilled all preorders with their 2nd batch allocation. I've actually heard the answer they gave you a couple of days ago posted by a fellow member. If you dont mind me asking when did u order from Handtec? i placed mine on 7th may.
[Galaxy S II General] bmcsfuze:
I don't mind at all. I ordered mine May 7th also, at around 2 pm UK time. My payment didn't go through on my credit card until Monday 9th (I guess because of the verification of US cc). Unfortunately for me I think they will fill orders in order of payment date.

I also actually got the email Tuesday 17th about them being able to fulfill all of the preorders with their 2nd Batch. It sounds like they are just switching back and forth between email responses.

At this point if I thought I could definitely find someone with stock I would probably order from there also and sale the one that comes in 2nd on Ebay (I paid $734 for my Handtec one and have seen them sale for $850 + on Ebay)
[Galaxy S II General] bsb1:
If by next week Handtec is still unable to ship out my SGS2 i'll cancel my order and just wait for it to be launch in Singapore around the 2nd week of June.
[Galaxy S II General] Murfle:
I opened a ticket a few hours ago, and got this:

"Currently we are awaiting full confirmation of stock dates from Samsung, what we do know is that theres currently a small number of devices coming into our warehouses over the next few days and as a result of this we will be updating our website with all information regarding which and when orders will be dispatched."

No mention of pre-orders what so ever... So, sounds like tomorrow they'll get a handful, but I can't imagine they'll be able to fill all their pre-orders. Maybe all pre-orders made the day or two after they sold out... And with the US supposedly launching on the 24th, the factories are probably chugging out for them only at the moment... We might be in for a long wait... :(
[Galaxy S II General] mattism78:
Where did you hear that the phones are launching in the USA on the 24th?
[Galaxy S II General] cawithe:
The New York event on the 24th was cancelled. Rumor was it was either the sgs2 or the 8.9/10.1 tab.
[Galaxy S II General] Murfle:
Ahh looks like everyone is getting delays. All the reading I've done today has melted into a solid lump of data in my head. I can't even find anything in my history to dig up links, but I'm sure it was probably to do with the event that got cancelled...
[Galaxy S II General] blue265:
Even if the announcement on the 24th (had it not been cancelled) was to announce sgs2 or variant of the SGS2 to the USA, I don't think it would mean that the US would start getting stock right away. These things take a bit of time and they'd usually announce a launch date which would most likely a ways down the road. Last year it was announced in early June that the Captivate would be coming to AT&T. It took another month before they started showing up in stores if I remember correctly. Its pretty much been stated that it will be sometime in Q3 and the other day it was mentioned that there will be 3 or 4 variants of this coming to N America. I'm still going with the International model. I am done playing with variants

I think stock is low because Samsung is just having a hard time keeping up with demand. I could be wrong mind you...could just be a supply chain fubar

I too write this as I (im)patiently wait for Handtec's stock to come in and be shipped out
[Galaxy S II General] leedavis:
Yeah, I'm in Australia and got mine very quickly. In fact I ordered on Tuesday and received it in Perth on the Friday. Needless to say I was pleased! :D
[Galaxy S II General] Murfle:
Yup, I would agree with this 100%.
[Galaxy S II General] phonex1:
I am with you mate on getting the international version but ever since I have read about the upcoming (but delayed) announcement I have decided to wait. A crapware free phone is great but if I buy a UK version and get it shipped, the issue is warranty. At least Rogers has a history of not screwing their variants too much and I can go to a local store for a warranty claim. I have heard an international version, if it turns out to have an issue as some have claimed (granted its probably a very low % chance but very real nonetheless) I think my only recourse would be to try selling it here to someone.

Unless someone can confirm if Canadian owners of international sgs2 can get warranty claims easily, in which case I am ready to jump at this :D
