[XPERIA X8 General] jcpotz:
Hi Everyone,

I'm a first time poster here, so please be patient with me. :-)

Just today I installed this ROM onto my Xperia X8 E15a:

MiniCM6-1.0.0 *Released*, Froyo Cyanogen 6.1.3 port for the X8

It works nicely and is a great, except that I can't connect to my mobile phone carrier. I am 99% certain the problem is that my carrier operates on the 850MHz frequency, and I'm guessing that the ROM I installed is supporting the E15i's supported frequencies of 900 and 2100MHz.

My phone can scan for networks and it picks up carriers that use 2100MHz, but doesn't find my carrier, who uses 850MHz.

How can I force the X8 to connect at 850MHz? I know if this can be done it will fix my problem.

Thanks to anyone who tries to help. :)

JC.
[XPERIA X8 General] bailey_ca:
Update Xperia X8 with official firmwares or custom firmwares

Official versions of E15i/E15a listed in this thread. Download the appropriate version and use Flashtool. ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] jcpotz:
Thanks bailey_ca

SORTED

--------

Thanks bailey_ca, love your work! :p

Before I encountered the above problem I bricked my phone while attempting to upgrade to Android 2.2. To get the phone to work I used FlashTools to put a 2.1 rom back onto it, but I mistakenly put on a E15i European rom instead of the US one.

The European rom is designed only to work with 900/2100MHz 3g bands, whereas I needed 850/1900/2100MHz bands, like my phone is designed to use.

I flashed back to the 2.1 rom designed for the E15a model, then up to Android 2.2, and it all works great, 3g and all.
[XPERIA X8 General] Sew00:
how can i know the bands my phone is using?

I'm having a similar problem.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raymondyaris:
pls help,

screen timeout is not workin on my P500

regardless of setting... 15sec 30 sec 1min

any app to counter this?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
Use KeepScreen

Hi,

You can use "KeepScreen" from the market. You can choose for which applications you need to keep the screen awake, which will override the phone's screen tinmeout setting.

Cheers,

Karthik

Screen timeout should work perfectly unless u have installed some app which prevents it like battery saver.

I have sky email in the UK and its set up as my main account on the TF email widget,each time I go into my emails it deletes the emails already in there before downloading any new emails anyone else ot this?

sent from my E Pad Transformer........without a leedroid rom :-(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thering1975:
I have my sky email setup as well but in all fairness it deletes previously read emails on all my accounts before downloading new ones, but only where i have downloaded them on my pc. So i get the emails first on my TF or SGS they stay there until downloaded on the pc then they disappear from my devices which is how it should be as the email server moves them from inbox to read or All mails

You can still view them on the tf by choosing sky and then selecting all mails folder on the left and load messages and they will show again this is the same for all google accounts for which sky email uses as its host
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VENOMENON_24:
Hey guys. Just did the whole Google Voice deal where my Sprint number becomes my Google number. All I want to use GV for is voicemail, that's it. I can either get 2 texts (GV and my regular text messaging) or texts on my regular messaging app but it would disable all notifications including voicemail (which I want only voicemail to appear).

How do I get rid of the texting feature? I only want to be notified by GV for voicemail and notified by my texting app for my texts.

BTW, I'm running the GV app as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenpoman:
unfortunately GV wont let you change the type of phone ( mobile, home, work, etc.). you have to delete your real number then add a new number and set it as a non mobile number. ( use the tab at the bottom right of the GV screen that says upgrade ) you can then choose a new GV number and stop the texts from GV

Has anyone got Nova working fullscreen on the NC? I played on an iPhone a while back and it was excellent. If so, could some kind person pm me a working apk? :)
[Nook Color General] frankusb:
Version 3.4.2 works nicely on stock 1.1.

[Nook Color General] luciferii:
it also works on cm7.. as well as most gameloft apps.
[Nook Color General] DubiousPig:
So how do you get it to fill the entire screen. I've got Nova 3.4.2 running but its only filling a small, phone sized portion of the screen.

EDIT: I tried unchecking Compatibility Mode in Spare Parts but although the game now fills the screen it still isn't right. The menu only renders a small part of the screen and when I get in a game a bit of the top is missing.
[Nook Color General] robot8:
Mind sharing exactly which games (and their version numbers) that work on CM7? For the life of me, I could not get one single game from them to work. What am I doing wrong...
[Nook Color General] rhester72:
In my testing against CM7.0.2, all versions of N.O.V.A. HD _except_ 3.1.3 (which force closes) and 3.5.4 (which locks up with a white screen while trying to play video) work fine on the Nook. Ironically, the icon shows up correctly only with 3.5.4 (which again does not work).

Rodney
[Nook Color General] robot8:
Thanks! Interesting to note that version 3.1.3 for the Galaxy Tab doesn't work as that's the one I got. Would have thought similar A8 processor would be a good thing, maybe the slight gpu difference? Gonna test out a pull from a friend's Droid, hopefully that should work in my CM7 Nook.

AOSP ROMS are very fast and works well but are soo simple.

for example i don´t like AOSP because i´m HTC SENSE LOVER..

in adition SGS 2 is going to run ANDROID OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS without problems

cyanogenmod7 is a current rom and has (under my experience the better performance.. available in SGS)in a few time when SGS2 outs... it´s going to be available CM7.X.X for this super-machine

Hey, has anyone else noticed the "H+" network icon? I guess it means I have HSPA+ in my area! :D I'm located in Belgium, Proximus network.

So here are the network icons for SGS2:

G = GPRS

E = EDGE

3G = well, basic 3G

H = HSDPA

H+ = HSPA+

[Galaxy S II General] steve228uk:
Anyone seen H+ on Orange? I've seen them advertising it with the Atrix but I've not had it on my SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] AJerman:
Be aware that at least AT&T I know has upgraded all their towers to HSPA+, so you'll always see H+ on your phone, but that doesn't mean they have HSPA+ speeds yet. HSPA+ is a simple software upgrade on the towers that they could probably roll out all at once to all towers. Getting the bandwidth upgraded to the towers and actually allowing HSPA+ speeds are an entirely different story.
[Galaxy S II General] Clivectmob:
Seen H+ today for the first time here in Redditch UK, 3 UK network.
[Galaxy S II General] qasdfdsaq:
Curious, and possible. Where did you get your handset?

My original GS2 was getting H+ on Voda, got a replacement GS2 (different retailer), not seen H+ once anywhere since (except outside UK). Tried same SIM, same location, and other networks. Also tried latest new O2 transmitters which only came online a few weeks ago, also no H+, though I didn't get to try them on my first GS2 handset as they weren't running back then.
[Galaxy S II General] Arkanius:
Isn't H+ basically 3.5G that Europe has used since ages ago?

Anyway, H+ in Lisbon, Portugal
[Galaxy S II General] qasdfdsaq:
No, though there's no official spec on "3.5G" "3.75G" "3.9G" etc.

H (aka HSDPA) is generally accepted as 3.5G which Europe has had for ages.

HSDPA+HSUPA (i.e. HSPA) is considered by some as 3.75G though most handsets still display it as 3.5G or H.

HSPA+ has only been rolling out for the last year or so and is classed by some as 3.9G. Only the latest generation of handsets support it. In the US they call it 4G, which IMO it is not.

Still, point being I'm trying to figure out if some SGS2 handsets sold in the UK are unable to access H+ networks in the UK (perhaps from certain retailers) either due to a fault, customization, or cosmetic change.
[Galaxy S II General] j3di:
Had H+ outside Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham this week on the Three Network.

I get the H+ sometimes on my sgs2 on voda uk , but my vodafones signals yo yo from nil to 3g to H and h+ withing 15 sec at my work place so badly I am fed up of it. cant really use the phone for browsing at all.

At home I get good H signal but then I use wifi so ,,,,, thats that

My work and home is almost a couple of miles different so the signall yoyoing is annoying
[Galaxy S II General] Rovman:
On my "three" uk sim im usually connected to H+, though the speeds are terrible (2200kbps) at my home. the town i work in is a little better seeing 4000kbps on occasion.

My o2 sim i only get H. with speeds usually being a solid 3800kbos or there abouts. whats the point in spending a crap ton of money to roll out a hspa+ network if your going to cap it the speeds your peevious hsdpa network already handled.

[Galaxy S II General] CandyAndy:
H+ icon is a big mystery for me. I can see it only while travelling in a subway for a short period. Always at the same spot. But usually it feels that the data is slower when it is on H+ than with only H..

candyandy where u from and which network u on?

I just rung Orange UK on my break and the guy was like you should get 3g didnt even know about H or H+ connections...WASTE of time ringing when you get through to the faults team at orange uk who are based in india?? the guy never heard of a H signal WTF
[Galaxy S II General] DVC1985:
All I'll say is that based on my 18 months with Orange UK so far they've been nothing but terrible. I don't think we'll be seeing H+ speeds for quite some time with them. Sometimes(but not every often to be fair) I won't even get 3G and I'll be crawling pages at GPRS. The way the network handles the switch from WCDMA to GSM is pathetic, too. I'm constantly having texts pushed to me about missed calls because their network can't handle the switch.

Can't wait for this crappy contract to end. I can hear GiffGaff calling my name. :cool:

I'm on O2, UK and I've only seen H+ in some areas of central London. Nowhere in Manchester.

As others have posted, even I've seen the H+ speeds (~1.2Mbps) to be lower than speeds on H (~1.8Mbps). However I've only tested in London once on a busy weekday.
[Galaxy S II General] ode178:
H+ everywhere here in Finland. Usually people are complaining poor download speeds, but they don't know what they are talking about. I usually get 4-7Mbps download speeds (best 11,02Mbps) with a data plan that costs 13,90€/month and has unlimited data + tethering.
[Galaxy S II General] CandyAndy:
Which network? I never get h+ with Sonera except in the subway around Siilitie station
[Galaxy S II General] maedox:
Not sure if it's like that with stock framework, but with AOSP framework (green icons when connected to Google servers) you might see the H+ when it's switching bands. E.g. between Edge and 3G or HSxPA. We do have H+ here in Norway by the way, but I can't say I notice any difference in speed.

Saunalahti.
[Galaxy S II General] dazstoke:
Ok so I'm on my way to work now and we just stopped at the bus stop where I pick up H+ so as promised I did a speed test and the results were if nothing else rather strange.

It would appear that my speeds are much worse not even 3mb dwn but 2.5 up, must be because they're not operational yet and yes my phone did keep the H+ all through the tests.

Yet at home on 3g sometimes switching to H I can reach speeds of 7mb.

G for o2 in central Brighton

[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
H+ in Dublin City Centre from time to time.
[Galaxy S II General] qasdfdsaq:
Maybe the H+ implementation on the SGS2 isn't very good yet. Don't forget H+ networks are new, and the SGS2 is one of the first smartphones to have an HSPA+ capable radio.

Now that I think about it I was getting worse speeds on H+ than I do now on H, even on the same masts and at the same time of day - connection was also rather unstable. That said last time I had H+ was on KD-something firmware, and my new handset never gets H+ on any firmware.

Maybe it's not completely congestion related after all.
[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
On Vodafone in Mumbai, I do get the H+ icon, but it fluctuates between H+/3G. Speedtest.net gave me a maximum of 5.5 mbps down and 2.5 mbps up.

Vodafone does advertise upto 21 mbps (which is quite laughable). When a customer called their bluff, they actually tried to sue him and for which they really got bad press and negative exposure at facebook. They finally apologised and withdrew their suit and admitted that half their towers were not even 3G capable yet, let alone H+.
