[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaitan02:
Hi, I just flashed my first ROM, 2.3.3, but at startup I couldn't find my language. I have the keyboard dock with the Norwegian keys æ ø å.

Since Norwegian isn't a choice with the ROM I flashed, these keys doesn't work anymore. So my question is; is it possible to add a language to the "Input Language"-menu, or do I have to go back to my previous version, and wait for the official Gingerbread update?

Have been searching for answers for this all over, but can't find any.

Appreciate any help!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chandelure:
Basically I'm wondering, if I could buy a WP7 phone (probably HD7) and use wifi for data and use apps for making calls and such over wifi. If not, I'm looking for WP7 on a prepaid service.

Thanks in advanced!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vespernova:
I can answer the first one but not the second one. I got both a samsung focus and a HTC inspire 4g.

For the first three weeks of ownership I keep the sim card in the HTC and used both wifi date and mifi data for the focus. now as for makeing calls on the focus using an app over wifi I haven't tried that yet. I do not know if there is an app for that nor have I looked for one. however, att's go phone now has a smart phone plan that you can also use. hope this helped
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chandelure:
Thanks, but the GO Phone doesn't have any smart phones. It's OK, I'll look for some WP7 apps :D

EDIT: I think I'll just buy the full price HD7, and get skype. Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
Before you go out wasted your money, you should know that currently there is no Skype for WP7. The API is not there yet to support any VoIP apps.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms79723:
There's a google voice app...free version and paid are kinda the same. Main difference is a big one. Paid offers push notifications while the free version does not.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
Google Voice uses your phone's voice minutes to communicate/dial out. You can't use it just over wi-fi.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chandelure:
I know, but Microsoft bought Skype, so it's inevitable.

And is there Google Voice for WP7?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
Google Voice is never designed to be VoIP, even on Android phones. Probably Google's way to not piss off carriers.

Mango will have socket API that is needed for VoIP apps. But with current schedule, you probably won't see such app until early next year.
[Captivate General] Cdub5:
I recently flashed Firefly3 which enables HSDPA. Does hsdpa use up more data than the traditional 3g. I know they're the "same", but I only have a 200mb plan with att and I've already used about a 100mb in the first week of my billing cycle. I've had this phone for about 6 months and the most data I've ever used to this point is about 60mb for the entire month. I'm almost always on wifi. Does flashing rom use data? Is there a way to find what is using my data? wifi never sleeps, just trying to figure out what is doing this. Is it the ROM?
[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
Flashing a rom won't use data. Apps running like email could be using data. What kinds of apps are you using everyday? I believe the 3g and h only differ in how fast data travels and does not effect how much data is used.
[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
Forgot to mention you can see what programs are running under apps from your home screen. I believe there are apps that will tell you what is using data.
[Captivate General] Cdub5:
Almost all the apps I use are the same I've been using for awhile. Like i said i'm on wifi about 95% of the time. Something is chompin away at my data, just not sure what is. Does att have the ability to tell me what is doing this. For all I know it could be just one app.
[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
3G watchdog might help you, it's on the market.
[Captivate General] Cdub5:
Guess I'll try watchdog. thanks. glad it's not the rom, cuz i'm really liking this one so far.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Do you use speed test alot? It eats up slot of data every time you use it (about 6mb every time, if I remember correctly). Did you leave background on, our auto sync? They all take up data.
[Captivate General] Cdub5:
funny you mention it cuz i just thought about speedtest, i ran it about 4-5 times this weekend. prob the culprit. already uninstalled. didnt like the results anyway. they were making me feel inferior. thanks for the help both of u. much appreciated
[Captivate General] megatronisabeast:
Don't worry about using that stuff anyway, just numbers. What actually matters is how long web pages take to load and apps take to start, etc. Real life tests!
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
HSDAP is enabled already in stock ROM. It is HSUPA that requires custom ROM (and most importantly non-AT&T modem).

Simply display a H icon (as a lot of custom ROM choose to) instead of 3G icon (as AT&T mandates all its phones to) doesn't mean you're downloading any faster.

The speed has little to do with how much data you will use per month. Of course, faster pipe will let you consume data faster but ultimately it is what you do determines how much data you use. a 1kB emails will only uses up 1KB of data regardless you're downloading it at 100kbps or 1mbps.

Emails and moderate web usage should leave you plenty of legroom on 200MB plan. Just don't do any kind of video or audio streaming or speed test (which they download and upload a large chunk of data to measure your speed).
[Captivate General] Dani897:
dont use speed test the servers get busy and i think the carriers may be restricting some bandwith to them because it is used soo much. use the browser to go on speakeasy.com i get way faster connections to that.

to answer the original question, the captivate has hsdpa by default. any modem for a i9000 i9010 i9088 t959 or basically anything that is not a i897 or i896 will enable hsupa and hsdpa also known as hspa.

the difference being that rogers and att restrict the upload bandwidth except for the iphone by disabling hsupa on the phone. this is probably because they are afraid the since android is so flexible and hard to regulate that people will use there phones to do things that use huge amounts of data. if you limit the upload it makes things like video chatting jittery and it makes hosting multiple devices slow but most important it makes hosting anything basically useless while only having a small effect on browsing. hsupa shouldn't increase usage but it does increase speed.

turn off network based location, reject googles collecting annonomous location data when you flash a new rom and turn off any sync option that doesnt need to be on. you will also notice good battery life. then you might also want to find a rom with good add blocking. with all that you should see good battery life and less data useage.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordgodgeneral:
I've tried the same, it seems all single point does is move the mouse point, and two points you can scroll up and down/side to side. Any more then 2 doesn't seem to do anything. I'm hoping more gestures gets added down the line, but I guess its not too hard to reach up and hit the screen either.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
currently the touchpad has limited MT support.

The only multitouch is two fingers in any direction scrolls. nothing else works.

So yes it is normal what your experiencing. Unfortunately for the time being, and possibly forever since asus hasn't commented, you'll always have to use the screen to zoom.

I found that in a browser, double tapping the touchpad zooms in and double tapping a second time zooms out. Just shows that they might be able to unlock more possibilities in the future... Maybe...

[Thunderbolt General] FMTesla:
Verizon/HTC update should have fixed this lock-on issue. Go to settings and check for an update. Might take awhile to get since its a rolling update
[Thunderbolt General] mbrown3460:
man my gps is still off before and after update but it locks on quickly tho
[Thunderbolt General] mdeblaz:
I don't get it... my GPS seemed to work fine before the OTA... now I can't get a lock for the life of me - whether I'm outside or inside...

When I load up Maps, the Wifi or Cell location finds me fine... but when I try to get a GPS lock, forget about it. The map icon and GPS icon just keep blinking - forever. Correct me if I'm but with a GPS lock, those 2 icons will stop blinking.

Navigation takes nearly 15 mins to lock on... None of the suggested fixes have worked.. nor am I rooted so I can't go and change the gpsconfig file...

I'm in NYC so I'm assuming the buildings have an effect on getting the GPS lock...
[Thunderbolt General] funkybside:
Same here. Before the OTA my GPS was fine. Sure it might take 30-60 seconds to get a lock if I've had the GPS radio off for a while, but once it locked it worked great and would re-lock quickly in the future. Now, I keep dropping GPS signal while using it, and using the GPS Test app shows it's not getting a good signal or locking on to as many sats as it was before. Clearing the A-GPS data and downloading the list seems to help, a little, but it's temporary. (Stock, unrooted)
[Thunderbolt General] tbcpn:
Try GPS Status and Toolbox from the Market.
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang02:
No it didn't. The update was worthless.
[Thunderbolt General] funkybside:
I wouldn't call it worthless - it did fix a few things like video cam sound and 3G<=>4G transitions, but there are certainly some lingering problems.
[Thunderbolt General] mdeblaz:
I've tried that about 20 times now... never got a GPS lock by using that app. I use to the app to reset it, then download the data... nothing. What else needs to be done while using that app?
[Thunderbolt General] bill102938:
Disabling VZW Location Services has helped my situation dramatically. I tried using GPS status tricks to no avail.

I did this yesterday and now I get GPS locks at roughly 3 seconds.

May not work for everyone but it's worth a shot.
[Thunderbolt General] tbcpn:
That's all I did. If I open Google Maps, I'll lock in less than five seconds within 100-ish feet, and lock spot-on in another five-10 seconds.

(Currently running das BAMF 1.6 Debloat / 1.16.00.0402w_1 baseband (new radio) / Adryn 4.3a kernel.)

Before the OTA it was taking me 30-60 seconds to get a lock. Now it's not unusual for me to lock in 5-6 seconds.

Try unrevoked again. Make sure you install the modified hboot drivers since you're on Win7. Uninstall HTC Sync if you have it installed... along with anything else that communicates/syncs with your phone. Turn on usb debugging (that's probably why it couldn't find your phone) and try running it again. Also make sure your phone is connected in "charge-only" mode, not as disk drive.

Read, read, read. Then read some more. Seriously. You need to fully understand what you're doing before you do it.

If you want something iPhone-like, try MIUI with an iPhone theme. Once you've read everything you can find, if you still have questions then send me a pm and I'll help you out. Just do some research first, and go ahead and do a nandroid backup before making any changes to system apps or anything else.

Mine has been taking 6.5 hours from when the battery was completely dead. Is this normal? I understand it may take longer than standard battery because of its superior capacity. Battery has been working great though, but should I return it?
[Thunderbolt General] stedrocklp:
My extended battery takes about the same when it is absolutely dead. One thing that I find odd though is that the last one percent (99-100) takes a long time. I wouldn't return it for that reason though.

really? is there an alternative? or just not worry about it? should i set up a task killer with super manager widget?

The auto kill eats up clock cycles for no reason. Turn it off and kill processes when needed.

[Thunderbolt General] googlemyahoo:
I'm stock with ext. battery and have advanced task killer and can easily get 12+ hrs of actual usage before the batt is close to dead. Mine takes a long time to charge between 99 & 100% as well. I've also noticed that if you turn the phone off after getting to 100%, it seems to charge even more according to the led that goes from orange to green when fully charged.
[Thunderbolt General] Dark Lazer:
When I charge mine in the car, sometimes it stays at 99% for a long time, (though I'm usually streaming music). But at home it charges pretty fast, never gets stuck at any percentage.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomentFreak:
I installed BAMF 1.6.3 remix and I noticed that I don't have some of the features that were listed in his OP.

For ex. I still have my location icon in my status bar, when I press on the themed rosie button on the right it still opens up the personalize settings no matter what icon I chose to put there. I don't have the 6 bar signal strength. I don't have the power control settings in my pull down menu, but I do have the power control settings apk in my drawer. Don't have widget picker, Don't have the extra power options when the power button is pressed, reboot, hibernate, etc.... Also when a call is missed it doesn't show the number in my pulldown menu only that I had 3 missed calles from*86 and something about CDMA on the missed call icon.

These are the few that I noticed in the couple hours of it being on my phone. I am just wondering if this is normal or what I may have did wrong and how to get these working as I thought they were part of the ROM itself.

Thanks

Did you flash the rom in rom manager??? If so, thats most likely what created the missing issues.

You have to flash the rom thru CWR for you to get everything up and running fully.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomentFreak:
Yeah I downloaded from the forum then installed using ROM manager. I will re-install using CWR. I will post my results. Thanks for the quick response. Oh yeah I noticed my post was at like 1:34 am? It's only 8:47 where im at?

So I re-flashed the ROm and everything seems to be like it should. I wonder why the differnece from Rom Mgr? It's not like I downloaded the file through RM, And It flashed using CWM? Oh well, I will know from now on to flash manually. I don't have the paid version, but if you can't fully flash a rom then what's the point of having/paying for Rom Mgr?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregnice37:
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Full blown roms I will always try to do in CWR from now on. If its something small like a theme or extra or add on, Rom Manager usually works well.

Glad the reflash worked well thru CWR.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanium:
New here , just wanted to ask under this post.

Kind of the same topic.

I came from the dx used droidx bootstrap and dx2 bootstrap.

New the the TB I seen some post saying Rom manager.

So I installed Bamf 1.6 and 1.6.3 remix from Rom manager.

But I hit the flash Rom manager button, success.

Then hit boot into recovery.

Is that what you guys mean when you type. CWR.

Checking to make sure I am doing it correct.

Thank you
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomentFreak:
Well you need Rom Manager to Install CWR which stands for ClockworkMod Recovery, Which is where you can make what they call Nandroid backups, which is a backup of your current system and setup including apps and data. So it's always good do backup before making any changes ex, flashing rom's. But there are many things you can do with it and to me is one of the most important parts of having a rooted phone is having recovery. Hope this clears some stuff up.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanium:
Yes thank you.

But this is all done from inside Rom manager correct.

I mean I open Rom manager and clicked boot into recovery.

This is how I flashed Bamf 1.6 remix.

I installed no other program or app to get recovery.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanium:
Yes I see now , went and looked.

I was following instructions before.

I had to hit flash clockworkrecovery.

That is what installed that I guess.

See learning all the time.

I used droidx bootstrap before never new Rom manager was so cool.

That guy rocks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twistdhood:
