[Samsung Mesmerize] HikingMoose:
Thank you for the reply.

The phone is 100% stock. This one has not been rooted or compromised in anyway. I did root my first one, and tried to install a lagfix, unsuccessfully. But then reverted back to stock. The first one ONLY had the missed call issue, which Samsung tried to address with the new EE19 radio update. But they took my good Mes, and make me swap it out within my 30 days for another "hoping it would fix the missing call problem". I knew it wouldn't because thousands of other users were having the same issues.

The second handset is the one with all the issues, the stock alarm app force closes during the night and wont go off in the am (twice) or when I turn the alarm off at night it still goes off in the am. The email app has to be force closed all the time and re-opened. It does drop a lot of calls, and is cuts in and out during calls. Reception does seem to be a major issue, but everyone else's phones work fine. We have several uscellular phones here, and a co-worker with a Droid 2 global from verizon (his signal strength is MUCH better than mine). I'm hoping its a broken antennae. The first one worked flawlessly in the same locations (before the leaves sprouted though).

-I've had many other issues too, like the screen going black and unresponsive except for the status bar. No buttons work, but it allows me to power down, BUT WILL NOT TURN BACK ON without battery removal. Other bugs, and issues too.

On this second handset I have the new EE19 update, which seems to be exacerbating my problems. I didn't have much for texting issues pre-update, and now post update get a lot of them. Maybe the EE19 radio is not as good? I have not actually received the third phone yet, but have no confidence in it now.

I don't have a computer programming degree or background, and am not familiar with flashing custom roms, and linux and all of that. But I'm trying to learn, and may try some different radios, and different roms. I'm interested in gingerbread for EE19, but its hard to search on here. I also want a voodoo lagfix.
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
The Mes does have a pretty weak antenna from what I have seen. There are a lot of people that have said they get worse reception with it then they did with a similar USCC phone (Desire for example).
[Samsung Mesmerize] evilntention:
I live in the middle of bumfuct and I have some of the missed call, text issues though not horrible and as with ee19 as I did with ec10. Depending on how I hold the phone I can go from full reception to no reception, same thing room to room. Also, there are times where I'll get no interwebs access without a battery pull and restart, like it won't reconnect after so long. If I was to guess though I would say its more of a reception issue than an overall phone issue. I have been on ec01 and the issues remained the same, but I like my mes, especially in comparison to the acclaim I had before it, though the acclaim did have better overall reception everything else about was "the gay". Have you tried different alarm clock, email apps from the market? Maybe that would help. I had no issues with my blackberry curve before the acclaim but it wasnt nearly as fun as the androids I've had. I'd say if the new apps don't help, maybe try a different phone, lg, htc, blackberry, there is lots of options out there.
[Samsung Mesmerize] HikingMoose:
I agree that it does sound like a reception issue. Problem is, I live in the downtown of a college city, and am supposed to have full 100% reception. I work in My state Capital, and once again, full reception. My other work location also has full reception according to their coverage maps. :eek: I think they need to issue me a real phone, and not just more Mesmerizes.
[Samsung Mesmerize] richaoj:
ummm .... didn't you choose the phone?
[Samsung Mesmerize] HikingMoose:
Not really. They only had two options at the time. The samsung mesmerize with 7hr battery life, and the HTC Desire with a 2.5hr battery life. I made the logical choice.
[Samsung Mesmerize] LaTuFu:
I would say at this point make them give you another mez and give it a try. Unfortunately, my experience with this phone and the belief project in general, they are taking “swapped" phones and recycling them back into the pool. I guess they are banking on someone else getting the phone and not realizing its a flaming hot mess.

I had to get 2 swaps done to get one that works.

The problems you described are very unusual for the phone in my experience.

Get one more swap, then get the store to apply the EE19 update before you register it. Do a PRL update after that (*228) and you should be good to go. I'm going on 2 weeks with a stock EE19 from the shop. I rooted with S1C, been running great since I got it.
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
So where did you make up that information from?
[Samsung Mesmerize] HikingMoose:
LaTuFu,

I believe you are absolutely correct! They do take their returned phones and ship them right back out to unsuspecting customers. Mine arrived today with packing tape all over the screen, and a scratched up camera lens. What kind of warranty replacement is that? So much for Uscellular having "the best customer satisfaction and network satisfaction of any national carrier".

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canedha:
Hi everybody,

could someone whos got already the mhl-cable measure the resistance between pin4&5 (and 1&2) of the micro-usb part of the cable? (see http://www.kineteka.com/Data/Sites/1/micro-usb-b.jpg)

that would be awesome!

thx, canedha
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greenie-UK:
dont know if this matters, but ive been able to Resist MHL mode when plugging USB by just activating Debug mode! that way its coming up with standard USB options menu
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] canedha:
hmmm, i dont think i can use this information. this would either mean that for mhl mode no resistor would be connected and the mhl mode is always on aka the the tv would have to deal with usb-data +/- (how shpuld the phone know to send hdmi data instead of usb) or (and i thinks thats what happens) that debugging mode set to on overrides the resistor values recognition.

anyways thanks for your information! :)

[TG01 ROM Development] lesscro:
@ Nokser...

With this hacking bootloader method... can we have a dual boot function ?

i say this because...

When you will release a WP7 ROM, i assume prefer Windows Mobile but i want play with Windows Phone 7 on TG01 then a dual boot must be a very good solution to preserve prefered OS !

Other kkep it up ! Good work !

When you are ready to release WP7 ROM, tell me... i can manage a Picture Preview art...
[TG01 ROM Development] Nokser:
No prob. bro..

What image??

Your name... a Tg01... Android appear... Wp7 appear... all come in tg01 then your name explose tg01 to say : Nokser did it !

Damn ! Awesome !
[TG01 ROM Development] nikola92:
That's good man but wait till he do it, and I don't think he is developing android for tg01... Or I am wrong?
[TG01 ROM Development] lesscro:
this part of development can be used to write in nand then can be util to manage more info in TG01 an help all OS portage in tg01...

Then Nokser work for all OS...

I Have ClockworkMod Recovery v3.2.0.0 at my wildfire and I can flash only Android 2.3....Which Recovery I must flash to flash any rom(2.1,2.2,2.3)????????
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Get ROM manager, which will install 2.5 along side 3.2.

To get to 2.5 select Reboot into Recovery from ROM manager :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stergios117:
oh thanks!i'll go right now to rom manager....2,5 is better than 3,2?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brilldoctor:
2.5 does not allow offmode charging
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stergios117:
Ok thanks! one more thing i must press "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" Or "Reboot into Recovery" at Rom Manager ??
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
First flash then reboot.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stergios117:
Ok do you have any link to download 2,5 ClockworkMod Recovery??
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Download ROM manager and it should be there for you to download
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stergios117:

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stergios117:
is 2.5 temporary??
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyda:
Anyone got a link to v3.2 of the recovery? I can only see v3.1.0.2.

Edit: NVM, I found v4.0.0.2
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
No, but, obviously if you remove ROM Manager / Format SD Card, it will be gone. But, you will have to access 2.5 via ROM Manager everytime. Essentially, you get both 2.x and 3.x by following this.

Because you view it from your phone level and this data is supposed not to be touched, as it could break your apps. If you view it on windows you'll see the whole bunch of asec files which are your apks converted into app2sd format :)

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Heuser1:
If I have purchased an app for my phone which I believe is honeycomb compatable, do I have to repurchase it for my tab? Not sure if the initial purchase allows me to sync with other devices or if I can connect my phone to my laptop and somehow extract the file or soething... Thanks for the help as always!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hebbe:
i could install the purchased app (for my mobile) on my tablet via the market. no problems at all.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Seihaku:
You can redownload that app to all your devices as long as they're using the same gmail account.

The only time this may be an issue is if the developer decides to release a Tablet-specific version of the software, at which point it's a separate program that you would have to purchase. For example - you purchase Fruit Ninja - you can download and install Fruit Ninja on your phone and tablets. You notice that Fruit Ninja THD is available (Tegra HD), you will have to purchase that separately since it's officially a different program than Fruit Ninja.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Sandelb:
Nope, never had to repurchase. Once you've attached your Google account to the device you should be able to hop into the "my apps" section of the Market on your tab. There are two sections in the scrollable menu to the left, installed and not installed. In the Not Installed section you should see every app purchase made on your Google account (Well, at least the ones you haven't installed yet). If it shows up there, it's HC compatible. If not, well just downloaded it onto your phone, pull a .apk off, then sideload it onto your GT.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] miguelroboso:
hmmm so I have this repliGO pdf reader, and it's installed and working perfectly, but it keeps showing in the "not installed" section. What should I do?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] twcook:
You should be able to just select "install" on it. I have repliGO installed on both Evo and 10.1, with no problems. By the way, it works quite well on the tablet!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] miguelroboso:
Exactly! It works perfectly, but I still have it under the "not installed" apps. If I click on "install" it does some fiddling and then it stays there. I cannot uninstall either.
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
Anyone else having issues with wifi calling? Initially people were complaining they could not hear me or constantly telling me to repeat myself. I left myself a voicemail on my work phone and was surprised how low the volume was. It's as if the mic gain was turned all the way down. I had to turn the volume to maximum just to makeout what I was saying. Additionally, the earpiece volume is also a tad low on my end. I'm assuming it's safe to say there is nothing I can do till Tmobile updates the phone, right?
[HTC Sensation] Robertsonland:
I just did a test on wifi calling to my voicemail at home and the volume was fine, sounded like a normal call. There was another voicemail on there as well from someone else and it was the same volume as theirs.
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
Hmmm...weird. I have no issues with mic volume during regular cellular calls and Skype calls (tested these two by leaving myself voicemails also).

I will call technical support and see what they have to say.

Thanks for the reply Robertsonland
[HTC Sensation] hurrpancakes:
I haven't had any issues (I had latency and sound issues on my Samsung Vibrant and Blackberry Curve before that using UMA) on my Sensation using Wifi calling yet. I used my friends phone while making a wifi call to it, and there was no delay at all, and the sound is great.
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
Bump. No one else is having low mic outgoing volume issues with wifi calling?
[HTC Sensation] brian6685:
Happens to me sometimes, but not too often
[HTC Sensation] Lowjax:
Constant. Wifi Calling is unpredictable. I have no network reception and the phone struggles to keep on wifi calling. I have tried most available roms all the patches and three devices. WIFI Calling is unreliable while using the phone. It works fine when left alone 90% of the time. However those times you pick up the phone and it doesn't show Wifi Calling, or it just then kicks in; you are catching it in its moment of sudden tmobile retardation. And i have tried it will all sorts of access points, obsessed over dd-wrt settings for weeks. Even ended up bricking a couple devices (JTAG ftw).

S-OFF Sensation LeeDroid 1.2 1.3 TMO-US Wifi Calling v1.0
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
If it's going in and out of WiFi calling like that it's the Sensation's WiFi reception causing the issues.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Do you put your hand over the top part of the phone when you're on a call?
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
My friends complain that they can hear themselves. Like an echo effect.
[HTC Sensation] if0rg0t:
Happens all the time with me and my wife...to the point that I don't use wifi calling anymore. It is certainly a problem.
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
echoing on speakerphone has happened to me, solution.. don't use speakerphone.
[HTC Sensation] Jumpjet:
Well I'm glad I found this thread because I am having the exact same issue and was going to return my Sensation. I have no regular cell signal in my house so I have to rely on the Wifi calling and it sucks from time to time. I have to repeat myself and sometimes the other person can't hear me even if I'm yelling in the handset. So from what I've been reading, it sounds like this is a normal (abnormal) wifi calling issue with Tmobile. That sucks!!! Is there any fix or possible bandaid for this problem?

Does this only happen with the Sensation or are others having this problem with other phones?
[HTC Sensation] Tinofet:
Bumb

Anyone have found a solution to this issue ?

I just joined Tmobile and i an having the same issue .

Microphone seems to be very week and i sound far away when i call using wifi .

Tried to hold the phone in different positions and i am using a case but no changes .
[HTC Sensation] diablokicks:
I have the same issue sometimes too, If i try to turn on speaker phone the mic cuts off all together. Using Revolution HD
[HTC Sensation] Tinofet:
You know .

I truly do not believe its a reception ( wifi reception or anything ) .

I ran packet capture and it all look`s "ok" no drops or resets .

This thing looks like a poor VOIP decryption , either on the phone or the Tmobile servers.

IT IS a software issue . And defenitly need to be attended to .

what i did notice that i have a sensation and so do my wife .

I get the issue she doesn't .

The difference i rooted my machine ( still uses original ROM i have a trust issue regarding running some unverified kernel`s ) .

Any thoughts ?
[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
I have called Tmobile about the issue. The tech I talked to said there were no other reports of low mic volume. My mic volume works perfect when using Skype or SIP. But when on Wifi calling, the mic gain is way too low. I have left myself test voicemails, and I have to have the volume cranked all the way up to hear myself. Hopefully the issue will be resolved with the next software release.
[HTC Sensation] Tinofet:
Man that sucks .

This Wifi calling is cool and i like it , but if it doesnt work whats the point .

Any way to contact the development team of this product ?

Calling and talking to some dude in India at Tier I do not help here...
[HTC Sensation] mollybc:
I have used several custom ROMs and Kernels and have had no issue with sound volume or quality using the WiFi calling app. It may be a simple hardware difference during manufacturing. Just as some people's phones work flawless while OC'd and others crash even though they all have the same model CPU. I would try to get a replacement phone to see if it works better.
[HTC Sensation] Tinofet:
I actually have another 2 new phones next to me .

Any way to clone my OS (including the config and everything ) to the other phone ?

Then i can move my SD and SIM .
[HTC Sensation] robohofo:
Same issue I have.

Most people complain that the call quality is very bad and they cannot understand me.

Thus i stopped using WiFi calling. Reception is an issue at my house and I thought WiFi calling is the solution. Unfortunately not.
[HTC Sensation] Tinofet:
robohofo : Are u rooted ? What room do you use ?
[HTC Sensation] allunix:
I have the same low volume issues with several different HTC sensations, stock

latest updates. The story was the same on a rooted/hacked Nexus one, so it's likely

a tmobile issue. Kineto software? I'm surprised there is no definite information

on this given how widespread it is. Hope they fix it soon so it can be used.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I have the low volume issue as well. I installed equalizer and I am unsure if that helped at all. However, I use wifi calling all the time and I have no issues with people asking me to repeat myself. Maybe I am loud enough lol.
[HTC Sensation] Jumpjet:
I think everyone should call T-Mobile and complain about this issue. Because according to one of the previous posters, they are not even aware of the problem. So that means they won't fix it. If we get enough people to complain about this, then hopefully they will come out with a fix. I already complained about this several times to them. I get such poor reception in my house that this has become a necessity for me and I'm getting tired of having to scream into my phone in order for the other person to hear me.
[HTC Sensation] vvveith:
Same problem here.

My wife now has the Sensation, and uses it for a lot of conference calls for her job. We have poor reception in the house so I told her when home always use the wifi calling, however, besides from people saying the here echos, if she places the phone face down on the table to use speakerphone, no one can hear her at all. I switched to the Amaze, but it does not even have the WiFi calling feature even though the specs said it did. Tmousa said it will be added when the next update comes out, but I fear that that will not be until next year sometime according to HTC.

If any of you knows of a work around, please post!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Peace, V:mad:
