VPN stands for Virtual Private Networking. It can be implemented several ways: IPsec, PPTP, and OpenVPN come to mind most readily. You can use VPN as a sort of "tunnel" so that all your traffic is passed to a remote host who then forwards it along to either a remote intranet or, in some cases, the internet. In the latter instance, this can be used to "hide" what you are doing from anyone between your device and the VPN server (using encryption).

I would have to say be very careful because manufacturers are implementing ways to block root tether. Case and point, the Droid x. When you load wifi tether up on the new gingerbread build it actually starts tthe built in mobile hotspot. P3droid over at mydroidworld.com who leaks all the Motorola stuff told us that attempts to bypass the build in tether app by changing the NVram settings will alert Verizon and add you to a list that they are compiling to track root users .
[Thunderbolt General] JBO1018:
Not that I agree with having to pay for our data twice, but the fact of the matter is Verizon has it set up so the tethering service costs extra. So justify/rationalize all you want but at the end of the day you are technically committing theft of service. Verizon offers a service for a fee, if you are using that service without paying for it you are, according to the law, stealing and you can bet your ass they can do something about it if they decide to. Again I don't agree with it or like it but it's a fact. I also tend to think using free wireless tether apps is playing a big part in this recent stir over rooting. That's just my guess tho.

I thought I'd start my own post, since some incorrect information has been going around. The libaudio.so file that has been linked to is only to fix the wonk on the Nexus One and has nothing to do with the Gingerbread call delay. It is hardware specific, and may cause issues in other phones. If you don't have a Nexus One, you probably shouldn't install this file. It is already in the CM nightlies, and will be in 7.0.4 when it is released.

I have submitted a patch to gerrit that reduces the call delay in my testing. I've posted a test build in the Nexus One nightlies thread, and fitsnugly has cherry-picked it for his Nexus One and G2x builds. Several others have said that it is working for them.

The patch is here:

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5420
[Android Software Development] willverduzco:
Thanks for your patch! This is great work.
[Android Software Development] jyxent:
My change has been merged into Cyanogenmod.
[Android Software Development] evcz:
thanks for your brilliant findings!
[Android Software Development] cb474:
Thanks jyxent for working on this! This has been the most annoying bug (to me) that I've had to deal with.

I am correct, in my understanding of the comments at review.cyanogenmod.com, that what you did essentially restored the code to how it was in Froyo? Just curious.
[Android Software Development] jyxent:
Not exactly. Google changed PhoneUtils to use CallManager to set the audio mode, instead of setting it to MODE_IN_CALL directly. There is some delay before a call becomes active once it is answered. CallManager checks this state when setting the audio mode, and was not setting MODE_IN_CALL, since it thought the call was still ringing. I just added a check to make sure that MODE_IN_CALL is set if a call was just answered and the call is still considered ringing.

This makes the behavior similar to froyo, but it wasn't just restoring the original code.
[Android Software Development] kled54:
I think it works when answering from the handset but not when you answer using the earphone..is this possible????
[Android Software Development] evcz:
got a problem today using this patch :(

phone was ringing: went to answer and slided...

in the meantime an SMS arrived (when I was sliding to answer)

result: the phone call hanged & audio output was set to loudspeaker + phone app freezed (black screen)

the other party could not hear me :(
[Android Software Development] berre:
hmm sorry for posting a dumbass question but

I need to download the callmanager.java right?

How should I install it, can I just replace the existing file using e.g. Super Manager (maybe making a copy beforehand)?

And if so, where is this file stored? I did a search on my phone but no results

thx

B
[Android Software Development] jyxent:
It isn't possible to just replace a file to get this fix. The ROM has to be compiled with the added patch.

This patch is included in the CyanogenMod nightly builds, as well as the 7.1 release candidate. As for other ROMs, it might be best to just ask in their respective threads.

A good PMP - wonderful in fact - did everything it said on the tin - except make and receive phonecalls.

95% network unavailability - when a 6 year old Nokia E70 didnt bat an eyelid and never dropped signal.

And they call this progress. Come monday I will be getting a Samsung Galaxy Pro and if that goes the same way then its contract go bye bye time and sayonara to my current provider.

Might I suggest that it would be a better use of peoples time on here to ***** at SE and other phone manufacturers regarding their equipments inability to provide simple and reliable phone services - than the current trend of - umm, I cant get a new .x.x update within 30 seconds !?! *ultrawinge mode: on*...?

People seem to forget that a smartphone is many things - but first and foremost its a phone - and in cases of extreme emergency, the ability to summon help, for whatever the situation can be the difference between life and death. The car accident victim you stopped to help isnt going to care about what version of An-drone you are running on your phone - and what happens if you are a woman alone and in trouble... woo hoo, look at that signal you dont got.. and the lives that are at risk because of that.

Stop wingeing about updates, and start wingeing about products released to market that dont fulfil their primary function...

A smartphone cant be that smart if it doesnt work as a phone...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Hello Jemmauk,

It seems that you overreact a bit. There is a rather large community of mini/mini pro users here that use their devices in daily basis and haven't reported bad reception. This is NOT a common issue.

Have you checked, if your mini pro is defected in any way or if there's something wrong with your provider?

Also you could be more polite against all of us, that seek the peak of performance from our phones.

No one is forcing you to be part of something that you don't like or support, plus, malicious criticism has nothing to offer to anyone.

Regards, D_d

Hello, if you have found problems with your phone, you should have tried to contact SE and report the problem. There is a posibillity of faulty device.

Hi All,

I have the GPS Issue - where it randomly just doesn't work. 2.1 stock firmware on i5800.

I've only had it a couple of days and have been doing various tests. I spoke to Samsung, who admit that 2.2 resolves some issues.

I initially got fobbed off with "you can swap it and I guarantee (?!) you wont get another with the same issue" - I told him I had another one exactly the same in my other hand (my gf's) demonstrating the same issues (silly man). I also referenced all these forums with other people struggling. Even suggested I could waltz into carphone warehouse who would update it to 2.2 for me...! haha I didn't accept this and carried on.

I reminded them that it's only officially out on Orange, which he acknowledged and said that in about a week the rest of the unlocked phones out there will be updateable via Kies (he made his own enquiries via some other "head office" support line, while I stayed on the phone). I've got the guys name and a case reference number and I'll be following it up and not letting it go. (obviously at the moment - "not fit for purpose" etc)

In the meantime, I've noticed that if you leave the GPS radio on, restart the phone, and LEAVE it switched on, the GPS works very nicely thankyou in tests and various apps. Once you start turning it off and on again it becomes flaky then doesnt work and you have to restart the phone again.

Hope that helps someone. Comments welcome.

Hello everyone, I am having a very strange issue on my phone that is frustrating the hell out of me :mad:. So I am having troubles pushing files over to my SD card. I plug in my phone and mount the card. I can easily transfer files from my phone to the laptop. But when I transfer files from my laptop to the phone, it shows perfectly fine on the card until I unplug the cord. I pull it up in ASTRO and my SD card reverts back to what I previously had on it before I made any changes. It does the same thing if I were to use ASTRO and go into my card and delete files. Once I reboot the phone, the card reverts back to the same thing prior. It's weird because I can download songs and listen to them fine when the phone is on. But if I reboot, again the SD card reverts back to what I had previously. I have no idea what is going on? Does anyone have any ideas? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)

Same here

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I only recently started having this issue as well. It was well after the OTA update, but up until not too long ago mine started randomly stopping between 25% and 75% through HD youtube videos. Hopefully the update fixes it. My Captivate started getting much more picky about playing (SD of course) videos over 3g. Maybe its something on youtube's end as well? I've seen in over places that a number of people have been having some trouble with youtube keeping up as of late.

One (kind of) fix that I've found is that videos sometimes play better through the browser on the tab... Food for thought.

hey guys & girls

i require the above so i can make my own output cable for a car docking station.

does anyone have anything because the ones at pinout.ru ( dont really know the page number) are a little confusing because it seems that the mic pins and the tv-out pins are the same.

basically what i want to do is have the screen output to the 8.4 inch screen i have with the mic going off to an external mic and the auiod outputs going to the amp that powers the car speakers.

this would be an easy car - pc all that would be needed after that would be to somehow get the samy to recognize the 8.4 screens touchscreen but i think thats a wish to far...

anyone think its a possibility ?
