[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _iKiller_:
Hi,

First of all, I'm running Cotulla's Stock Desire NAND Rom on my HTC Leo.

Lately I've been having the problem, a week at this point, where I have full bars and am unable to place/receive phone calls or send/receive text messages. This problem goes on for about 5 minutes everytime I unlock my phone. It's at a point where I don't even get incoming calls/texts.

I've done some searches, but all threads I've read say that it's most likely my area's tower's fault. But I'm just making sure because it seems highly unlikely that it only happens when my phone is locked...

Anyways, I'm also wondering if it has anything to do with my APN settings, since sometimes when I switch from one of them to another it seems to fix the problem for an hour or two.

I am unable to post my APN's because of the restriction that new users can't post outside links (which I guess includes the links in MMSC and server of the APN) My first APN uses epc*tmobile*com and my second one uses wap*voicestream*com

I will try and post my full APN info as soon as I can.

Edit: Here are my two APN's with * instead of . (sorry if I'm breaking a rule)

For a while I was using #2 because #1 was refusing to give me any data connection, but now I am using #1 after learning #2 was the old non-smartphone APN.

Is there anything wrong with my first APN setting? And could my inability to place calls be due to anything other than my local towers?

Thank You

So I tried both out for about half of the day, and I'm having better data speeds with the 2nd APN setting (consistently around 2.75-3.5Mbps) however I'm still having the issue of sometimes not receiving/being able to send texts and calls even though I have full bars and am able to open my browser and load webpages. Is it likely that this is just T-mobile's fault or could there my an issue with my phone?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Capt.PP:
Not being able to send out text could be a problem with your current ROM. Try tytung's ROM, follow my sig. It's really sweet with tmobile.

Have u tried changing you're radio...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] _iKiller_:
I've changed the radio twice now, from my original 2.08.50.08 to 2.15.50.14(latest htc version) to 2.09.50.29_2(latest tmous release) and I'm still having the same issues of having full bars and not receiving texts/calls.

I really would hate to switch from this ROM, is there any other possible solutions to this issue?

If not, I guess it's time to try a new ROM... to flash a new Android ROM onto my HD2, do I boot into the Magldr USB Flasher or HSPL Flasher?

I just got my SGS2 today and noticed that the signal bars don't turn green like they did on my HTC HD2 that was running a gingerbread ROM.

Is it just this phone that doesn't?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] koflem:
1) this is the sgs forum, not the sgs2.

2) who cares?

I don't mean to be rude, but seriously...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] IINexusII:
i dont think the SGS2 network and wifi icons turn green. same with the galaxy 1 gingerbread firmwares
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nige_B:
1. Sorry, My mistake

2. I do because it means I'm not getting connection to Google
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
signal bars will only turn green if you have a connection

example: you have wifi switched on, or you have data (2g, 3g... so on)

when a connection is established, signal bars will turn green.

so check you have wifi or data ON, check APN settings if you cant fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nazrazr:
wow you lucky brits.........always got everything 1st...hahahaa.....maybe there is no signal and that why no greeny bars............or the phone is defect...return it and ask the new one :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jimbiye:
Sorry but that is incorrect...

On Gingerbread, Signal bars AND wifi do not turn green for SGS and SGS2.

I have both phones connected and working.

To the OP, no sure why you don't have a connection, but it has nothing to do with the color of your bars...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
EDIT: jimbiye - YOU are incorrect !!

That's a Gingerbread feature: the signal bars turn green when you have an established data connection, white if not.

google it for yourself
[Galaxy S I9000 General] IINexusII:
the SystemUI.apk samsung uses for the galaxy 1 and 2 does not have green icons within them. so unless you flash a custom theme, u wont have them turning green on a stock firmware

for Nexus S they turn green when theres a google connection, the same as the CM7 im using in my SGS
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
People are still talking about this?

This is known for a while now that for sgs series, signal bar does NOT turn green whether you have a connection to google or not.

it will always be in white.

If you want this feature like in nexus s, you will need to flash new framework apk.

I believe there are some nice ones available on xda i9000 but not sure about sgs2
[Galaxy S I9000 General] snapper.fishes:
Completely off topic, but that's one hell of a long username. It's covering part of the post.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
Like I said. It is a gingerbread feature. So if you are not on gingerbread or you don't have a gingerbread theme, they wont change colour.

If you had read my post properly you would understand

You have to be rooted to use it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xmfpdlemalnz@hotmail.com:
Please stop embarrassing yourself.

It's clear you haven't used gb on sgs.

Different companies release slightly modified gingerbread.

For example, gingerbread from HTC or Google does not have same features as gingerbread from samsung.

This is why our sgs does not have above feature.

This is one of available features on "pure" gingerbread released by google. (eg on nexus s)

Another example is that on our sgs, we don't get crt screen-off animation.

That is also only available feature on nexus series.

To sum it up,

We do not get above features whether you are on gb or not as samsung modified it.

only way to get it is through custom roms or themes. Got it?

If you don't know facts, please do not misinform others.

It just makes you a noob :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
as rawat said we can mod it ;)

after: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/12/some-cool-android-tips-and-tricks.html

thats basicly few png files in SystemUI.apk that you can edit wo decompiling whole apk...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PhoenixFx:
Clearly you have not used a Stock Gingerbread rom on Galaxy S. The signal and Wifi does not turn green. Look at this video; that guy logs in to the market which means he is connected to a google account. As others said with a simple theme you can make them turn green but the stock ROM does not do that without any mods !!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
stop relax and read with understanding. this is nexus feature like overscroll

take some time to read the google blog entry i posted above please
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
i dont use stock gingerbread i use cyanogen / miui

i know this works with them i didnt know its not on stock version because i dont use it.

but i never said it happens on stock gingerbread, i just said its a gingerbread feature :confused:

i didnt know we were referring to 1 particular GB but GB as a whole

i didnt mean to offend anyone, i just thought you were all saying this DOES NOT happen on gingerbread, when it does.

Just not official GB for the sgs, which i havent used

EDIT: samsung obviously have to get gingerbread from google right ? if so, why do they remove such features ? it makes no difference really, infact it makes other devices, like you said Nexus s look that little tad better on the eye.

its not like removing crt off animation and green signal bars, will affects its performance ?? works well for me on CM7 / MIUI on my sgs
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
it happens on every gb i rememver from jv1

if i recal good

on sgs it turns white from lets say greyish standart

while on nexus they turn green from the greyish one

feature is present but the color changed

i find greenish one more 'readable' so i use greenish nexus styla

peace out
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Furry Atom:
Samsung removes the features because........they're evil :P

Also nice 1337 post count.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jimbiye:
It seems you were too quick at bashing my post earlier...I was talking about stock roms on SGS and SGS2 from Samsung...

Anyway, no harm done. As long as you got your story straight.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NasrulBond:
he makes sense. he got more post rather than you = better knowledge
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jimbiye:
Dude,

I did not question his knowledge, but like everyone else here, I was simply pointing out that stock samsung roms for gingerbread do not have green icons...

What does post count has do with this?

Or you just felt the need to attack me for no apparent reason...:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
guys stop ;)

true is that it is a feature introduced in gingerbread

stock do not hvae green icons but they change color to white

thats the only change made (plus ofc wifi icon style ofc)

but still feature is present

I know this might not be the right area to post but i cant post in the android development because i dont have enough posts but i need to figure this out.

I tried das bamf last night and it boots fine but it looks like its missing the notification screen power control widget and when it boots up it looks stock and doesn't look like it comes with really any extras same with the das bamf remix.

I fallowed the guide to root last night and it worked but im not sure if something went wrong and i dont know it. is there a way to check if its rooted properly and is this normal for the roms or does it sound weird?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
If you weren't rooted you wouldn't be able to install the rom.

I'm going to go ahead and guess you didn't wipe anything when installing a new rom. Read a bit more before you start messing with your phone more and end up having to take it back to verizon.

And a thread like this does not go in Android Development, read the rules too why you are at it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatjames167:
i realize i was rooted, just not sure if you could be partially rooted or not and if that would mess up a rom, and i wiped everything. i first tried the bamf remix and wiped the cache and the dalvik cache. i then flashed the regular bamf and wiped everything including the data. both times they look stock with a couple of extra apps and nothing else really listed that included in the rom.

also where are these rules? all i see is the description next to the threads.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
You didn't wipe data when you flashed BAMF remix, there is the problem right there.

The regular BAMF isn't supposed to be anything radically different from the stock look. What exactly were you expecting to be different after you flashed it?

Rules - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1013013
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phatjames167:
the onlything real different is a couple of apps were added like call recorder, kernal manager, spare parts, titanium backup and thats is, just a few things i notced not having right away were the notification power control, the 6 sgnals bars

these are the features of bamf 1.6

Features of 1.6

1.13.605.7 base

Debloated, which includes vzw framework, apps, games, libs, and permissions.

Tweaked filesystem and minfree.

Zipaligned (just once, not every boot, sorry), and deodexed. Odex and deodex perform the same after the first boot, when deodex roms get....odexed. This is merely to save space in /system and make tweaking easier.

Added Google Car Home, removed HTC car app.

HTC Hub and htcsense.com are partially working.

Removed Stocks widget, and app. Google has better apps for this anyway.

Superuser is fixed with rmk40's version, woot woot!

Our own busybox, version 1.19

Profile added to system/bin to help prevent certain malware.

Kernel has init.d support, as well as adb root, and usb debugging enabled on every boot (even from a wipe). Many optmizations, tun, cifs, nfs support. Overclocks to 1.5ghz. Undervolted from 1ghz and down. Stock voltage at 1.19, slightly overvolted past that.

Kernel will boot at 1036mhz! You must use setcpu to overclock, the kernel will not do it for you automatically.

Yes, I know the features, but I still don't understand what exactly you expected to SEE differently. Not every feature is something that is going to be "seen".

Re-download the rom, boot into recovery, make a backup, wipe everything, install the rom, it should all be fine then.

So i got a brand new Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670 and I turned it on to check if its working,(it did) played with it for like 10 minutes all was good. so i turn it off, put in a Sim Card, a 2G memory card, and connected it to the computer to put songs in it but it wouldnt turn on. i tried taking out the battery for 10 min and putting it back, but still nothing.

Notes

*This is my first samsung phone

*Kies detects it when i connect it but its stuck on connecting.

*Odin also detects it but i dont know how to use it (I dont know how to use Odin AT ALL)

Thanks allot dude ill try it

EDIT: Crap when upload the "CODE_S5670XWKA3_CL878390_REV01_user_low_true.tar.md5" file to PDA

Last option for u. Go to samsung service centre.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ewidtfeldt:
To get into download mode power off and take out battery. Plug in usb cable and Hold volume down and home I guess for the fit (mesmerise is just volume down) now place your battery back in while holding the buttons. That usually does it if you've got your key combo correct.

I can't find an answer to this anywhere but since flashing JVH I'm unable to to connect my SGH to my PC other than via debugging mode. Not only does kies not see it but neither does Win 7 (64 bit) file explorer.

Tried clearing drivers with USBDeview. It appears to be an MTP problem. After kies tries for a while it reports the following error:

Tried all the obvious, rebooted, removed battery, reset. All suggestions welcome

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] temyes:
no problem for me

I updated jvh with kies. but no probel with kies... kies says this is update version...

pls open recovery menu.. and wipe partition and wipe factory rfs.. and reboot.. probably kies problem solved.

before updating rom with kies pls do those:

1. remove your external sd card

2.format your internal sd card

3. restart with factory reset.

4. connect your phone kies and updates your rom...

on contrary, old version files in your phone prevent your kies to see your phone.
