[HTC Desire S] nehasharma:
well i firmly believe that the wifi issue of the DS is due to a software bug......this is for three reasons:

1. some DHD user mentioned that he is using a desire s ROM and he is having the same problem while he didn't have it earlier.

2. the fix for this problem is already there in one of the threads

3. both the wifi antenna and the phone antenna are built into the cover of the DS.....when the DS is held in landscape usually the left hand covers the top of the phone (where wifi antenna is located) and the right hand covers the bottom of the phone(where phone antenna is located). so when held this way the phone looses the wifi but there is no loss in the phone signal......'cause if this were a design flaw then both the signals would be lost....

the IS also has both its antennas built into the back cover but it does not loose the signal no matter how it is held
[HTC Desire S] Numline1:
There are some posts about WiFi issue on Incredible S after update, it seems to be software related afterall.
[HTC Desire S] Numline1:
It's not as good msg as it may sound, I reported this problem to HTC support, instead of any statement, they given me some OT advices and they were not nearly close to admitting problem is on their side, instead, they made the same update for Incredible S, so I gave up. (My past tense skills ftw).
[HTC Desire S] Nos0x:
Could you elaborate at all? The wifi on my desire s is literally unusable.
[HTC Desire S] Numline1:
Well, I did little research with my DS. There is something that appears to be two different wifi issues:

1, death grip - when the phone disconnects from router after holding the back side of phone

. This may be software issue.

2, signal drop - this one is very common and I think every DS has it. I tried wifi an. app and signal went down, it was aprox. -20db when I held upper back side, it even nearly drop completly when I held the whole back side. This is imho hardware construction issue.
[HTC Desire S] Blezz:
try this please and look if it helps for you too :)
[HTC Desire S] brokenworm:
IPhone ... Your holding it wrong.. LOL .. the antenna is on the top , thats why.. i guess..

Im not disconnecting i just loose a couple of decibel in landscape nothing Else im s-on 1.28

Its really not a problem.
[Desire HD General] georgito:
hi everybody,I moved this question from Q andA section,no one replayed ..maybe here and sorry for posting same thread again ...

I have tried to share my files in the DHD with PC using DLNA with Windows media player and there was no problem to see PC files in DHD., but can't see any from DHD on Media player... any ideas why DLNA works only one way? Thanks... (same with Nero mediahome too)..
[Desire HD General] h3dfuk:
You will need to select the files on your phone you wish to share on your network. Media Player on your PC has already configured media to share.

Go to android market and search for DLNA or media share to find programs that will allow you to do this. Once shared, files will be visible from your phone.
[Desire HD General] sanjayng:
Hey georgito,

Which program are you using to connect to PC and vice versa?
[Desire HD General] georgito:
...the default one-connected media..and skifta too...both same results,files are playable only on phone...
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
You can play files from your DHD on your computer using the Windows Media Player (on Win7 it works, I think Vista should be fine too, not sure for XP though - you might need to update the WMP). You have to enable "remote control" on the player settings and then you can play files drectly. There is no way without a third party software to get DLNA on the DHD working like a media shared folder (the way the DHD can see the files shared on your computer).
[Desire HD General] georgito:
..yeah..I did everything necessary to set up connection..and still can see any change to play files from phone on PC..still just having only phone player on menu...no windows one..I thing,there is an issue with 64bit vista..
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
Try this. If it still isn't working, maybe you can try to disable the firewall / antivirus just to check if that's the problem (don't forget to turn them back on ;) ).
[Desire HD General] georgito:
Idid exactly..just still cant see media player in phone,only my phone.....go check firewall and antivirus now..thanks..
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
This morning I called O2 to check on my PAYG order and was told it is out of stock so the order was not processed. Went to the local O2 and bought one! Very happy!

Quick notes below and I will add more info later. If you have questions please ask:

1. Screen is AMAZING - looks like a high-gloss magazine print, but very little reflections.

2. The device is SIM locked to O2. In store I was told it is locked for a year but I can unlock it with after market shops and services (non-O2). I already had an O2 PAYG SIM so no need to buy one. Vodafone SIM requires Network Lock Control Key. Will checkout online unlock options.

UPDATE: Paid online for unlock service at http://www.mobileunlocked.co.uk/. Tracking informations states 'Order in Progress with Bulk Supplier. Delivery Time: 6 to 12 Hours from order time'.

UPDATE 2: Got unlock code back in 11 minutes! Unlock successful!

3. O2 stuff: Wallpaper is a panorama view of the O2 arena area (actually nice!). Boot and shutdown screens are with O2 logo. No other O2 stuff and no O2 apps.

4. About info:

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513

Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKDD

Baseband version: I9100XXKDH

Congratulations...you'll enjoy it very much

Obviously we demand an extremely indepth and thorough review of the devices every feature!

(don't bow down to pressure to run it through quadrant benchmarks or anything, no doubt someone will be along shortly to ask you... if on the other hand you feel like doing some benchmarks for your own interest by all means share)
[Galaxy S II General] duncan888:
does it come with any additional microSD card?
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
No MicroSD bundled. If they did it was probably a rubbish slow 8GB. When I need extra storage I'll get a Class 10 32GB.
[Galaxy S II General] saquib:
How much for the unlock?

Can you report back on when you receive the code and if it works?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] jamesking420:
Great that it works. I'll add it to my "How to unlock guide".

:)

Thanks,

James
[Galaxy S II General] NZtechfreak:
Although it has absolutely no relevance to me whatsoever, that information on unlocking is great news for many here I am sure, thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
It cost £15 (I paid with PayPal) and took 11 minutes from order confirmation email (almost immediate after payment) to NCK code in a second email. The instructions were very clear.
[Galaxy S II General] HTC_Spree:
Is there any physical O2-Branding on the Device?
[Galaxy S II General] comebackqueen101:
So it is working perfectly fine with your non o2 sim...internet and phone calls?
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
No physical branding on the device and not on the box. Not even on the barcode.
[Galaxy S II General] comebackqueen101:
Did you happen to buy it in a London store; trying to locate one today in London is proving to be a hassle; some are claiming stock is arriving in the afternoon.
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
I only have a Vodafone micro SIM from iPhone 4. I will check later and report. Shouldn't be a problem though. It is very clear when a device is locked.
[Galaxy S II General] saayinla:
Any luck with tracking one down in London...been hitting a brick wall all morning too...
[Galaxy S II General] exar_kun:
same here... o2 shop at the O2 Arena claimed on the phone that they have PAYG stock available and 20min later when I arrived there they said they have none and don't know ETA.

Needless to say I was "a bit" upset...

Shop in Stratford have them in stock, but for contract only. Been told to phone again tomorrow for PAYG.
[Galaxy S II General] lohap:
Hi just to let you know the Richmond 02 store has 3 left and the phone is sim free and the only branding is the startup and shutdown images.
[Galaxy S II General] entropia:
Are you sure it is SIM free? Mine wasn't and it doesn't seem likely they have both SIM-locked and SIM-free devices.

I got mine in North Finchley. They had one unit and I asked to reserve for me and they did.
[Galaxy S II General] jonrwg:
I really hate the O2 logo on boot and shutdown. Anyway to remove it?
[Galaxy S II General] lohap:
Well it has my vodafone sim card in it now and its working. It was the first sim card ever put into the device.

[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
It seems that all that was 'confirmed' was that 'Ice Cream Sandwich' was going to be a code name... which we've known for quite a while. The post doesn't say whether it's going to be for a '2.4' or a '3.1', either.
[Fascinate General] okubricko:
Is this like honeycomb, for tablets only?

[Fascinate General] sneakysolidbake:
It will probably be 2.4. Android 3.0 is tablet only software and since ice cream sandwich is going to be for phones, it only makes sense to keep going in the current sequence for phone updates.

The name ice cream "sandwich" is a huge hint to the fact that it is combining honeycomb features with gingerbread for a smartphone update.

Updating to the same version does ot requires wipe :D

Okay, now serioulsly.

If you mean to update to 1.9.5 - just update... it's the same base, so should work.

However if you get a bootloop, you can try wiping cahce/dalvik cache.

Alternatively, backup stuff with TI backup.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frabjous:
Several months ago I flashed my phone to android 2.2.1 using the JPU stock rom. It worked and still works fine. I thought I would try out Gingerbread but it has proved much more difficult than expected. I've tried various methods of flashing on 2 windows 7 64 bit pcs and also on linux. The phone is rooted (and has recovery 3e so I can't use clockwordmod).

I've tried to flash with Odin (1.3 and 1.7). It just gets stuck at SetupConnection (phone is unaffected). Tried with all kies processes killed and also with kies completely uninstalled.

Kies (latest version) gets stuck at connecting the device.

I've tried using the drivers from kies, and the separate samsung ones. They all appear to install correctly and device manager shows no errors.

I've also tried using Heimdall on both windows and linux. In both it gives an 'unable to find a compatible device' error message.

I've tried factory resetting the phone, reformating the sdcard etc with no success. At this point I am pretty much exhausted for ideas and feel I may have to admit defeat. I've lost count of the hours I've spent searching for solutions.

Can anyone help?

Hi, thanks for taking your time to help :)

I am looking for an App like 'Nexus Torch' which has the High Brightness option which works on the DHD. Weirdly the Nexus Torch app used to work, but on High Brightness it now flashes slowly. It was working at a previous version but now it is buggy. If there are any other apps that work nicely with Desire HD with High Brightness please could you show me :) Or if anyone has a older version than the current (2.2) it would be helpfull.. I think I was using 2.11 :)

Many thanks

I have disabled HTC Sense sync for about 2 weeks now and found the battery last much longer. I suspect this service drains so much power because it takes more than 10 minutes to complete.

If your battery drains abnormally, you may like to disable and see if it helps.
[HTC Incredible S] nayak.aj:
No offense itandy, but that goes without saying for ANYTHING running in the background... it will eat up battery since it is using the processor.. RAM etc ! :)

None taken. But what I'm saying is no regular sync process should take that long to complete and consume that among of precious power from our phone on a regular basis.

Sync it with google then re-sync it when you load cm7. Or export contacts to sd then import them in cm7.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
Re-install a rom you can use htc sync then restore your contacts. Then export to your sd and then import them when you are running cm7. Try google sync first though. They might be in your google account.
