[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wendering:
Hi, I'm having a wifi issue with Gingerbread 2.3.4 (GRI40). This is my diagnosis:

1)I've got too many Network Errors.

2)Sometimes it just stop loading data, for example, when I'm on Facebook App, Photos won't load at all.

3)The same of 2, but streaming Video.

I had flashed Froyo 2.2 FRG33 and those problems are not present. But using the same Radio for both: 5.12.00.08.

PD.: It's an American Nexus.

Thank you.

Nobody :(?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wendering:
Problem solved by myself, apparently was the Router (Thomson TG580), It was configured with WEP Encryption, so, i changed it to WPA-PSK and the problem was gone :).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
That's strange I have a router secured with WEP and I can connect to it fine with no issues. Did you try setting it back to WEP afterward to see if the problem was still present?

Either way you are probably better of with WPA-PSK it's more secure but it would be fun just to see because I'm pretty sure when you changed the password type you reset the router which probably would have fixed it as well.

I wanted to know what apps I need to start themeing icons and stuff? I use a mac so what apps do I use? If there are Apps to theme stuff on my android phone itself that would be great.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dr.laser:
Just thought that the rotary lockscreen looks a bit ugly because of the divider and the centred clock/date.

I tweaked it a bit to look similiar to the stock android lock.

To apply the mod:

1- Extract the attached zip file.

2- Open the framework-res.apk you are using currently with winrar.

3- Drag "keyguard_screen_rotary_unlock.xml" to res/layout.

4- To hide the arrows, drag the 2 png's to res/drawable-hdpi (skip this to keep the arrows)

5- push framework-res.apk back to your device

buy me some coffee

Does anybody have a CWM flashable CSC for stock DXJPC firmware?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
DXJPC CSC
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
Thanks,Noxxious.

I can't stand the suspense,went ahead and flashed the DX fw

over the Italian fw and guess what--- no pda and csc from *#1234#.

Applied your csc file from CWM. now I have PDA :DXJPC and CSC OLBJPC,,,,

Under Kies it is still showing ITV though.....I tried from *#272*IME# to change to XTC the tab rebooted and I saw some RED TEXT stating that the "E:rfs cannot be formatted" or something like that.

What is this E drive? and how to apply CSC to enable the correct one to show up in Kies?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
try reflashing the dxjpc firmware again. that did the trick when i encountered that before.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
This is exciting!

should I reflash thru Odin without repartition or repartition with pit and pda?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
you could also try doing a factory reset first...

i think it would be better to flash with .pit file
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
No luck,kabayan.

2 problems: 1. no pda and csc:

Tried everything-flash with pit, flash with no pit, factory reset using recovery mode,factory reset from settings/privacy,using samfirmware fw, using your dbdata file,etc- everything resulted in BLANK PDA AND CSC from *#1234#.

Went back to Italian using chainfire files and there it is complete info.

I researched the problem and found that on the galaxy s thread this CSC problem is extensively discussed. It has something to do with nv_data file not matching the csc. When during boot the fw finds the nv_dat file to be missing it creates a blank one thereby resulting in a blank csc when the 1234 is called. I don't do programming so I don't have a clue on how to resolve this problem.

Also present on the tab is the "E: efs unable to format data" error when changing csc from the *#272*.....

Problem 2. when rooting the dx firmware using CF-root the bootsplash becomes corrupted. The sound disappears from the samsung galaxy tab logo animation, followed by a BLANK screen and the sound comes just before the home screen appears and it is broken. I tried to apply the available bootsplash animation restore from this forum but it has no effect.

--I have now got back to the Italian stock. These 2 problems don't happen at all in this now unofficial fw(since it was pulled out by samsung). I think there definitely is something wrong with the dx fw.....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
the DX 2.3.3 firmware is stable enough, the problem seems to be in how the filesystem gets updated/corrupted during the update process..

the only problem i got with the gingerbread firmwares (JQ1 and JPC) was this:

"verifing intermal MMC block...

checksum confirmation - check(1)

E:MBR checksum Error

Internal MMC checksum verify failed"

though i was able to fix that.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
not unstable but minor bugs are there (to discover)...felt okay to me but no different from the Italian fw.

Yes 2 folders-.android and IME. 7 files same as yours plus nv.log.

the hidden (.nv prefix) files were dated 25 jan 11 while the 2 others (nv) dated 11 jun while the updated_filesystem dated 4 jun

I wonder if there is a check on the md5 hash? or the dates?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
seems you still have a safe copy of your EFS. i recommend you back it up somewhere. i myself have it on my pc and the tab's external sd.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I am now on the Italian gb....is this a safe copy? I'll put it on the external sd then....What will I do with it? should I put it in when flashing the dx?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
keep it as backup as sometimes flashing firmwares might corrupt it, you ending up with a phone with bogus imei.

do you remember what the dates for .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 mean to you by any chance? say first time you held your tab, the date your tab left the factory even (lol)?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
wait I'll check my receipt....I hope the missus did not throw away the box.....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
Wait, I am learning something here:

You mean when flashing a new firmware the tab is not completely erased? I was assuming it is reformatted clean....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I got my tab in march so must be manufacture date
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I think I can confirm now that there is something in the samfirmware file that causes the partition E errors I get. I have flash to DXKJ2 then updated thru Kies. No more errors!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vettorodrigo:
I have been reading your post guys , and I also had the same problem in partition E: when I flashed gingerbread to p1000n, how did you solve the partition e: issue? Have tried everything and still with the same problem! (Obs.: the firmware also was form samfirmware.com)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I did not really "solve" it...I used Kies to get gingerbread.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaen77:
I also have missing CSC and PDA, how to I flash using CWM. I root with CF-root and it comes with CWM manager, can it be used? Is it under option flashed an update.zip for csc?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
yes you can use cwm.but select zip file not update zip
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aycynokia:
csc and pda missing after flash to dxjpd...

can the phone work without it??
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noxxious:
the phone can work without it though you might encounter problems when using kies as it wouldn't recognize your tab's version. a suggestion would be to downgrade back to jk2 and update via kies.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khmerboytk:
missing PDA and CSC also

Now i'm just update from Froyo JMA to this one

and i have read all ur post from the first page till now. but it make me confusing.

I don't know where to start. so could you please help me to make it step by step? to solve my problem?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
reflash your tab using this in ODIN pda and no repartition.
[HTC Sensation] colonel:
guys, help me make a decision.

I have played with both.

I acknowledge the superior nature of the Samsung screen in daylight, but I dislike it in the same way as I disliked the Samsung Galaxy S. The cheap build and the unecessary desire to mimic some iphone functionality and looks (digg that one button!)

The Sensation is just beautiful to hold and I like the extra pixels for browsing

The SGSII has some extra storage built in, some extra ram and slightly better battery management - but so what !!!!

just about to push the button onthe sensation

Am I missing anything ?
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
looks like you have already made your choice... no need to justify it get what makes you happy
[HTC Sensation] Robboftw:
Given what you said, the Sensation.

I see you have a ChaCha... oh dear.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I am currently using the G2X but I will be purchasing the Sensation or the SGSII in the near future and then giving the G2X to my wife. I have been leaning more towards the GSII because it is noticeably more snappier in the UI (TouchWiz is now less intrusive than Sense). SGSII has hardware accelerated browsing which is obviously faster in video comparisons. It seems that the Sensation hasn't sold a fraction of what the SGSII sold but there are a ton of major issues popping up with the Sensation. I like the looks of the Sensation better and I like the fact that it is made of aluminum but I would go with function over form any day of the week. The SGSII's display has superior daylight performance. The battery is obviously better in the SGSII. Lastly, the graphics performance of the SGSII is better than the Sensation. I am leaning more towards the GSII but my patience is wearing thin. I don't know if I can wait another 2 months for it to get in the states but unless HTC solves some of these major bugs, I think I can wait it out.
[HTC Sensation] theclueless:
i have a gs2, it is a great phone, little too light and thin to my taste, and i have learn to love the center button, camera is awesome, and operating the os is pretty fluid

but the touchwiz is just so freaking horrible, plus the cartoony setting menu icons are just... what the hell are they thinking? the lockscreen has no info but time and date, the touchwiz widgets do not offer any addition functionality. while the super amoled plus screen is freaking gorgeous, but you can literally see the text pixels and rough edges (should not happen on cleartype!). the wifi on the device is weak like the nexus s, it keeps on losing wifi connection with my htc surround is holding steady

im serious on the fence of signing a new contract with tmobile for the sensation 4g
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Touchwiz is so ugly, also another user has mentioned touchwiz feels snappier, and graphics has better performance,

well sgs2 has been out for a month and unlocked botloader, dev scene isnt that big,

oh no but this is HTC, just wait till this bootloader is unlocked, both of these beatly cores will be overclocked no doubt and we will see VAST IMPROVEMENTS!
[HTC Sensation] colonel:
Actually its great and unbeatable when you need a keyboard, which btw is great

Try it an u will see ...
[HTC Sensation] colonel:
what major bugs do you mean ?

I have read alot and have seen some niggles but no major bugs
[HTC Sensation] theclueless:
touchwiz does feel fast, i have no lag whatsoever until i overload all the pages with widgets... i dont think mali 400mp can outperform adreno 220, but the cpu exynos definitely beats snapdragon

right now they have a build of cm7 for gs2, just really really really buggy

the tmobile store by my workplace doesnt have a functional unit yet; im gonna check it out once they have it, then decide from there (another reason i want to switch is because i had about enough with the att network; hopefully by the time the at&t&t merger is complete, there will be a new toy for me to play with)
[HTC Sensation] Robboftw:
It's a phone made for the scourge that is Facebook, KEEP IT AWAY FROM ME! :mad: :D
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
1) Touch Sensors are out of whack, especially in the lock screen.

2) Cell signal and WiFi problems.

3) Dust getting under the display.

4) Internet latency

5) Device is getting hot

6) Some people have displays with a yellowish tint.

I wouldn't say some of these are minor niggles.
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
This brings up a concern I have with the gs2 - no search button. I use that thing constantly and would definitely miss it. It seems this point is not brought up often in the comparisons between these two phones.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
Holding down the menu soft key brings up search. Holding down the hard home key brings up background apps and a task manager and also unlocks the phone. It's pretty well laid out.
[HTC Sensation] theclueless:
i only use the search button to bring up voice search, which can be accomplished by double tapping the center button on gs2, and in my opinion, is a plus :p no need to find that tiny search button again

another thing is gs2 tend to get quite warm, if not hot, when doing stuff other than texting and calling
[HTC Sensation] colonel:
I played with one in a shop. the sensors seem perfect !!

I chose the Sensation for similar reasons. It's the only beastly smartphone that doesn't look like an iphone.

You need to stop making things up!
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Just because the device you played with is perfect doesn't mean they all are. In general, bugs do not effect all devices. Take the G2X. It has many bugs but I haven't had a single issue with mine. Some people get lucky, some dont.
[HTC Sensation] intruda119:
Your on a mission. Majority doesn't have your issues. I think your seeing threads and assuming that's everyone's issue.

Would I be right to assume everyone has reception issues, horrible lag, wifi problem, grip of death, dust under screen, horrible browser performance, bad flash proformance, data issues, random reboots, high temperature etc for the htc sensation.

No unless I was a noob looking at the first 2 pages of the sensation general forum. Luckily most are not basing there decisions from samjpulln youtube vids.
[HTC Sensation] Teso Dos Bichos:
The problem is this. When? Out of the box it is less optimised than rival devices, as you state, and HTC has been very quiet about when it will be opened up to developers to fix it. It is the main thing that it holding the device back notably in comparison to the SGSII as there are already numerous developers actively working on it with the full support of Samsung. Even something as simple as browsing is behind in terms of performance. At the moment the Sensation is a risk. HTC going public with what is happening will be the difference between me buying a Sensation or SGSII. The ball is in their court. As I am coming from a Palm Pre (yeah... :rolleyes:) I am definitely not going to jump to another device with the promise of something good happening at some future point. I need something a lot more concrete than that! There is going to be a delay until the Sensation is opened up, another delay while developers work on it and another erratic period of bug fixing until we finally get stability. How long will it be until the Sensation is up and running as it should?
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
His reference to a SGS2+ is from a rumor on an Asian website saying Samsung was going to bump the proc to 1.4mhz to coincide with the release of the iP5. It's just a rumor.

What he tried to say in an earlier post is that original SGS2 owners would be screwed because a four month old phone wouldn't be the latest and greatest any longer and that the Sensation was a better choice because it wouldn't be obsolete.

What I tried to say that he didn't get is that if Samsung ups the specs on the SGS2 so will HTC for the Sensation in order to keep it competitive making the original Sensation just as obsolete (according to his theory) as the original SGS2. The real point is that any phone from any manufacturer is subject to obsolescence just based on how fast new and better features are being introduced. What one does they'll all do in order to remain competitive.

Why would I buy something else? Because I want to spent my money on best available phone? Don't think there is HTC and nothing else. Samsung's Vibrant and Galaxy S 4G are great phones. I know because I have both and I can compare them to Sensation. I own this one too. What about you?
[HTC Sensation] joon82:
Have both phones right now on tmobile.

Love screen on sgs2 but thats only thing i like.

It gets way too hot so i have to drop frequency using Setcpu. Even browing web makes phone hot.

Camera is better in sensation and sense is way better than touchwiz(using launcher pro).

Sgs2 is going on ebay as soon as i find out how to load korean font in sensation.
[HTC Sensation] Beefheart:
Instead of selling your SG2 on fleabay I suggest you return it as I suspect its faulty. I have had my GS2 for two months now and have had no issues overheating when browsing or general use like phonecalls and texting. It gets a bit warm when playing certain games but that's to be expected and no different than any other high spec phone with a dual core CPU.

As for the constant references to TouchWiz being crap, I certainly agree. But when are people going to learn TW is the least invasive manufacturer UI on any Android phone? Replace the launcher with something like Launcher Pro or ADW and the rest of the phone is not far off stock Android, which is more than can be said for certain other phone makers. So I really do not see the issue.

[HTC Sensation] iunlock:
1.) If you've played with both than it should be a no brainer decision...

2.) Superior day light? That's it? You're missing the big picture. Samsung has a great built quality and just because it's light in weight people perceive it as being cheap. Don't forget, there is a reason for the way it is constructed to shave on the weight. Reason reason reasons.... The back cover for example can flex to the point where each end can touch each other....cheap? Far from it.....iPhone? Give me a freakin' break....Apple totally ripped the LG Prada in the candy bar smart phone design so end of story there. Apple are the copy cats...once again, a prime example of brain washed know-nothing people like you who think everyone copied apple? Give me a break....it's the other way around. FACT. NOT Opinion.

3.) Sensation is a great device with bloated software, BUT! BUT BUT>..it is no where near the class of the Samsung Galaxy S II......SGSII is a far superior device. A 3.5l Ford piece of American made piece of crap is not the same as a 3.5l german made Meercedes.....FACT....the processors don't compare. Period. Samsung is superior.

4.) More goodness for the money? Uh hellooo..yes when it's quality good for the money than it's acceptable. In this case it is...Samsung always tend to offer more for the money....and that's a bad thing?

5.) Push the button on the Sensation and find it to lag and be a slow piece of $#!t.... I own a Sensation and it's just temporary....It's a slow device thanks to the piece of crap snapdragon processors....worthless....even the LG G2X spanks the sensation in terms of speed and quality.

End of story.

[HTC Sensation] Clivectmob:
For what it's worth, if you want a phone that has all the icing on the cake with basics that don't work, get an sgs2, can't comment on the sensation yet as it turns up tomorrow :) I just hope it's not as big a disappointment as the sgs2 is. Everyone worth their salt knows about all the shortcomings of the sgs2 but the one for me that is unacceptable is the intermittent nature of the 3g data connection. Can't even be relied on to stay connected to the internet, and thats if yo get a signal on it and before anyone starts, it occurred on 2 seperate handsets, (first one returned due to dead pixel). If the sensation is as bad in any way i'll be ramming it through HTC's window tied to a brick cos i'm fed up with all these latest phones being unreliable pieces of junk.

Im not basing my decision on what other people are saying. If you look at my history, you will find thread stating I already purchased the device and had problem of my own. Stop trying to defend your beloved device and come to grips that it has bugs like every other phone released recently. Its not jut HTC. Its everyone.
[HTC Sensation] intruda119:
I actually feel stupid because I actually use a sgs2 but I thought you were talking about that. Lol

But those issues you posted do plague most htc phones and I never understand why people love there quality. Like I've said in other threads htc is doing the same like their winmo devices. Just like htc fuze, touchpro, touchpro 2 etc. Very minor upgrades with 1step forward 2 steps back. Hd2 was/still there best device.

But all in all people have different taste and standards. You have to remember people who have issues tend to post more complaints on general section.

I can read any general section after a release of a device and see your list plus others. That goes for g2x, sgs2, htc sensesation and anyother device.
