[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hypersonicx:
Go with which ever cell company is best for your area. Here in Nashville TN, the CDMA is dominant. Where as Verizon / Sprint service is strong. My Nexus does on average 8Mbps to 10Mbps down on 4G and 1 to 2Mbps.

So im definitely taking advantage of the unlimited data usage and love it. I do about 2-3 GB of data a week lol.

If the network is slow in your area, Sprint just aint for you just as TMobile just wasn't for me lol.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
The day I got my phone, last sunday, I tested the 4g speeds. It was very disappointing. I was getting the same speeds or sometimes slower than 3g. I will have to try again tomorrow if I remember to see if it improved. I'm measuring this against my old epic that used to connect to 4g much quicker and easier and it hauled ass. The ns4g is pokey. I don't know if it's psychological or not but I thought I got better speeds on the epic and evo for 3/4g.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hypersonicx:
After running some more test on the Nexus 4G. I noticed running the speed test app gave me slower speed results then other 4G phones. But when downloading large files while tethered using bittorrent or just large files in the browsed I seen the speeds hit 700KB/s to 1MB/s which is around 9-10 Mbps. I also noticed the indicator next to battery for 4G light up 2 bars where normally it is grey for no activity and 1 bar for some activity.

Maybe Google did something new to the Nexus 4G vs other 4G phones where it attempts to save battery power by not using much speed until its actually needed. Also starting to think the 4G bars don't represent reception but might represent the speed or data being transmitted which also explains why it turns grey and green.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p00kienrayray:
Used the evo up until December before I jumped to at&t. Was pulling 1-1.5mbs down consistently in my area on 3g. Now with the ns4g its my first time back since 5 months ago and I'm averaging <.5mbs down in my area on 3g! Its not the phone bc I was getting the same speeds on my temporary echo phone.

My only assumption is that within the 5 months I was gone, an assload of ppl jumped on sprint's network.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] applefanboylol:
i would agree, except for the fact that i just came from an htc hero and was pulling 1-2 mbps on 3g and now on my brand new ns4g im getting less than 1 mbps on 3g. Im very disappointed idk what to do i spent so much money on this phone.

I unlocked/rooted my arc,freezed bloatware with titanium backup,and cleared se home launcher´s data from settings,and now the launcher just keeps force closing. Reflashed firmware with fastboot,but it doesn´t help because it doesn´t overwrite settings/apps. Usb connection won´t work either. Menu/back/power hard reset not working. Dunno what to do...except wait for a custom rom with a different launcher :mad:

Why doesn't your USB work? You could flash using Flashtool. Do you have another launcher or that was the only one?

hi...

I've been using this phone since six months ago and this is the first time i encountered this problem. My alarm have no sound at all this morning and when i checked the setting, the volume is set not being silent, i tested play mp3 and nothing coming out from the speaker. but if i plug the earphone i still hear sound.

is there any way to fix this? btw, im using rcmix S v 1.3
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nateboi81:
Are you getting any sounds from the speaker at all? Might be faulty

no, nothing, play mp3, test ringtone and notification still not working...

full wipe and flash the rom from recovery, speaker still dead...

[Milestone XT720 General] Doodalicious:
Hey Guys!

I have a XT720 as well, but I'm really not confident in flashing a rom through dexter's froyo, as well as installing dexter's froyo myself.

Does anyone here who has already done it live in Singapore?

Would love to meet up to learn!
[Milestone XT720 General] ndempist:
why wont you follow the video tutorial from reverendkjr

pretty clear on it.i only follow his instruction on the video when i try to installing khal's rom for the first time :)
[Milestone XT720 General] Doodalicious:
I do get where you are coming from but I really can't get the video and it really scares me to try this haha.

I'm rooted and stuff but the rom and dexter froyo seems like a big step for me... hoping someone can guide me in real life to be sure.
[Milestone XT720 General] ndempist:
the phone have bootloader locked, your phone will not bricked if you do something wrong when updating the rom :) AFAIK

the problem that may happen as far as i know such as stuck on M logo, and boot loop but with reflashing it will be ok again.

just watch the video and courage yourself :D lol

hope you make it :)
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
If you're already rooted, try this to just install OpenRecovery and create a backup of your system.

Download dexter's zip and get the OpenRecovery.apk from there. Then make sure your battery is fully charged, turn on USB debugging, unplug the USB cable (sd card must be writable from the phone) and install OpenRecovery.apk. Then run "System Recovery"--that's what OpenRecovery.apk is called) and push the button to install open recovery, let it finish and then reboot your phone. Press and hold the volume key before the M logo pops up--you should get into the openrecovery menu. If that works, you're 90% of the way there.

Then in OpenRecovery use nandroid > backup and backup your "boot", "system" and "data" partitions (the backup all does not work on XT720).

Then use "wipe all data" to reset your phone. Reboot all your stuff is gone.

Reboot into OpenRecovery again. Use nandroid > restore to restore the backup you just made. Reboot. Your stuff is back.

The thing to remember about this phone is that being plugged in to the wall isn't enough for flashing--the battery will drain even while plugged in while inside recovery so always make sure you have a full charge before you start flashing.

Installing Dexter's or khalpower's ROMs is then just a matter of copying a different nandroid backup onto your sdcard and restoring it (and wiping all data).
[Milestone XT720 General] Tavinsky:
I had the same fear want to install the new rom, but following the steps in the tutorial video, no problem, everything will be fine. As stated Mioze7Ae, first make a copy nandroid, and then install the rom dexter and last patches.

Good luck
[Milestone XT720 General] khankuan:
Im using khals V4 rom now on starhub. Everything is awesome except battery life even with underclocking. still trying to figure out whats wrong with battery.. the steps to install khals's rom is quite clear. btw khal's rom is modified from dexter's.
[Milestone XT720 General] Doodalicious:
Thanks a lot for the replies, really pushed me to get this done on my own!

Now my XT720 is running khalpower's rom v4 as well! It wasn't that tough and it was a good experience haha!

^ I find my phone's battery life is performing better though surprisingly o.o but I do have data off and network on 2g on most cases so maybe the change isn't such a big difference!

Having the partition to have apps on sd card is really wonderful!

Happy XT720 User!

[Samsung Mesmerize] ruswood:
I flashed back to stock odin and because i was unable to flash anything from phone as it kept saying couldnt mount /dev/block/stl11. I tried to disable lagfix and it wouldnt let me but it said lagfix was disabled but I remembered when I flashed the rom heinz that it sait it was enabled so i tried to enable it and it wouldnt do that either so seeing that it said it was disabled I went ahead and flashed and once it rebooted I got constant force closes and phone storage says 0 available so im guessing i bricked it but just wondering if theres any way to fix it before i take it back tomorrow Ive tried to redo it with odin 3 times and even tried to repartition with it and still the same thing. After i did the repartition it goes to blue recovery and says cant mount /dev/block/stl11 It wont turn on at all just goes to recovery.
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
This is what happens when you use odin without disabling lagfix first. I believe bd posted a fix for this or you can go to the irc chat for help. Also the zero memory usually happens if you don't do a factory reset.

Ive found the error all over the internet but cant find help for it with the showcase and dont want to screw it up even worse (If thats possible). Could you point me in the direction.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleclair:
Dang, another problem with my Transformer (or with the cable.)

I bought the bundle off of TigerDirect with the Transformer, Mini HDMI cable and case.

I finally got around to opening up the cable and I connected it to my HDTV. Nothing happens.

I did some Googling and it said make sure the cable is fully inserted (yep) and that a HDMI notification should appear on the device. (nope)

Anybody else buy this bundle and try to connect to their HDTV? I'm trying to figure out if it's the cable or the device.

I tried rebooting it as the old standby fix, but still no-go.

Thanks!

Went and tried on my friend's HDTV and it worked like a charm.

Not sure what it is about my Panasonic plasma 1080p monster, but it doesn't work on it at all.

And I know the port is good, it's where I hook up my PS3.

Not too concerned because I won't use that feature too much, but I was thinking of how some hotels now offer HDMI in, so that's awesome the next time I need to travel for work.

Load up some music, some TV shows, a couple games, AND I can even do some work. (Yeah, right!)

I don't see how one rom works better than stock on hdmi unless something specific has been added or changed in reference to it. Is that what you are saying?

I do know pluging in the mini hdmi connector into the TF firmly was the difference between it working or not working on my sammy. BTW it looks great and surfing the internet on my TV has taken on a lot greater meaning since. Lots better than my lame PS3's browser :p
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gueatx:
I had the same problem hooking up to my dad's tv, not completely sure of the brand of it. Samsung or Sharp.

Anyway, it would not work on any of the 3 hdmi inputs that were not being used up, so I tried plugging it into the input where his dtv recorder box was connected, and it worked.

Not sure if the tv had a setting in the setup menu's that would have made it work but I couldn't find anything that would have made it work on the other hdmi inputs. I had 3 different cables with me that I tried so that wasn't part of the problem.

I also remember the tablet was saying it was connected to hdmi but there was no video or audio on the tv on the other 3 inputs. Very strange. Works great on my LG I woulda been on one of the 3.1 unrooted asus updates at the time.

that's my experience with hdmi not working, hopefully it helps someone, someday

Since I put CM7 on my nook it's like having a whole new tablet. It works wonderful now. I keep telling my wife "you know the difference between that blackberry tablet and the galaxy tab and my nook?

Thank you to all the developers!
[Nook Color General] angomy:
On a semi-related note,

I was messing around with my (CM7 SD install) Nook the other day at a mall Starbucks kiosk. A woman in line for coffee pointed at my NC (I had it horizontal for web browsing) and said excitedly to her husband, "That's the new Blackberry tablet that I want!"

:d
[Nook Color General] wounded.world:
I tried CM7 out a when the 7.02 stable was released, and it felt laggy to me. No faster than nootered 1.1 OC'ed for sure. Is it just the look of 2.3 that everyone loves, because it didn't seem that smooth of an experience over either nootered 1.1 or 1.2 oc'ed. With everyone loving it sooo much, I just might have to flash it again.
[Nook Color General] Carygep:
I think it runs a lot smoother than when I had it nootered. Plus it looks great!

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bling_Diggity:
Yep, I broked it.

So, wanna hear a fun story?

I got a free Hero, and tried to root it. First thing I tried was z4root. It failed. Then I tried RegawMod. Fail. Perhaps it didn't help that I had the latest stock version of the Hero, 2.32.651.x

So, then, me being a wise guy, decided that I'd just try doing it myself through ADB. I tried to follow CyanogenMod adb rooting instructions HERE. I kept getting stuck at step 5:

It kept saying something about how it couldn't chmod "/data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin" because it wasn't a directory. Well, duh, this I know...but I couldn't figure out how to make adb understand that.

Well of course, because I couldn't chmod rageagainstthecage, I couldn't move on to the next step, actually running ratc:

Now, this is where the fun really begins. I rebooted the Hero, just to see if that would help, and then I was going to try again. Trouble is, the phone wouldn't boot. Kept getting stuck on an endless boot on the HTC screen. So, I went into clockworkmod, wiped everything (except boot), and then restored the nandroid backup I had made before I started this whole process. Still no dice. Still stuck at an endless HTC boot screen. I tried a hard reset on the fastboot menu just for ****s and giggles...but still nothing doing. I also tried running the RUU app on my computer to install an older version of the stock ROM, but RUU would not recognize my device (even though HTC sync and ALL of the drivers are installed, and I had it mounted to the computer in clockworkmod).:confused:

So...I guess my question is - does anyone have any clue how to fix this? I still want to root the damn thing, but right now I'd be happy just to get the stock rom back up and running. I know if I could find a stock ROM I could probably flash it through clockworkmod...alas, the only one I found turned out to be a corrupt zip file. :(

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
