I had the problem of wifi in phone getting stuck at "obtaining ip address....." and then failing to connect and getting disabled.Restarts scan.process goes on the same without success.fxr wifi fix didn't work for me :mad: .In custom mod rom there is regulatory domain.But in official roms there is no such option.To fix this issue in official rom enable the use static ip and fill out the necessary ip address dns netmask.everything is easily available with your technical operator or check your adapter properties in alternate configuration :D

Everything with these headphones work on my evo except when I double click for next song it goes to recent call instead. Any solutions
[EVO 4G Accessories] Zefrenchmissiles:
Try downloading the app called DroidShuffle. You can also set up the clicks for different actions
[EVO 4G Accessories] liljacques:
How do I set up the clicks
[EVO 4G Accessories] liljacques:
I found out how to do it thanks a bunch
[EVO 4G Accessories] liljacques:
It worked but it still goes to recent call on double click.

Well with voodoo control and power amp (both in market) it has solved alot of that. To answer why I think it is probably because of thee sound drivers.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] killerxtreme:
Hey there xda themers.. Been looking around at serendipity themes and I can't help but notice that there hasn't been any glow themes.. Or that many themes to begin with for S7.. The 2 that seems to have the most traffic are bluedipity which honestly I don't think looks that great, and blue matte, which isn't bad tho the blue aint quite for me..

So I'm here making a post hoping someone could help me out and maybe others that might like this also.. I'd like to see a glow style theme for s7 something Tron inspired would be sick.. With kinda a glass like notification bar. Kinda all sexy like.. I'm not really good with theming or artistic programs of the like which is why I come asking for help.. There is Glowing Blue Style by sv0911 which is kinda cool.. Tho I dunno if something special has to be for S7.. So anyone looking to theme such a theme?

-Thanks
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ppalbicke:
Look for the theme sheer brilliance. I believe that is what you might like. I believe he going to port it to s7.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] killerxtreme:
That's pretty good but still not quite what I'm looking for.. I've tried uot kitchen and it somewhat does what and how I want it to look but still not quite as some turning doesn't actually work for s7 it seems.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] darkguy2008:
Hey :)

I've been having a few problems with my current HTC Magic... it seems that for some reason, WAL (Write-Ahead Logging) is being enabled by default for some of the most important databases in the phone.

That is a significant problem for me, because I need the databases to be accessible to edit them and such, and sometimes it isn't possible to do so in the computer or in the very own device because it says the database isn't a database file and such.

I also used to backup my .db files and restore them everytime I reflashed a ROM, but WAL makes it harder now.

Is there any way to disable WAL and just leave it with my .db files as they were about two months ago before they all introduced WAL? more specifically, the databases in com.android.providers.<any>.

I've already tried to change the journal_mode and issuing wal_checkpoint and then restarting the phone, but it doesn't seem to work. Also, I can't set journal_mode to off in some databases because it says the db is locked, as in telephony.db... killing com.android.phone (because issuing fuser telephony.db returns its PID) does no effect though! :/...

Any pointers are greatly appreciated :)

- DARKGuy
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chajadan:
I have found resolution to this problem by calling disableWriteAheadLogging(), which seems to be a relatively rare requirement, but is present on the Nook HD and Nook HD+
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
The internal memory in the G2x is treated as an SD card in many apps (because it's mounted on stock at /mnt/sdcard). This can pose a problem with applications that store lots of data. Users have large external micro SD cards for this purpose, but many applications just blindly choose to install to /mnt/sdcard. The user has no option of saving to the external card.

Has anyone figured out a way to 'fool' applications into thinking the "External SD" card is actually at /mnt/sdcard?

As an example, if each file system supported symlinks, the amazon mp3 player app could be fooled by:

ln -s /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD/amazonmp3 /mnt/sdcard/amazonmp3

Of course, this won't work when working with SD cards, as they use FAT partitioning which does not support symlinks.

Anyone mess with this and have a 'suggested' way to 'fool' apps into using the external SD card for more storage?

Edit: I have tried swapping mount locations of the two cards in /etc/vold.fstab. This worked, kinda. USB storage mode just hangs when enabled and the computer sees a drive it can't read (and asks you to format it).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
Ive been trying to figure out a solution for this since I got my G2x, cause I just have too many gameloft games LOL :D

Came up w/ the same syslink idea but FAT doesnt support such a simple idea. We can link between an EXT and FAT, but not FAT to FAT, it seems.

This probably requires edits to the kernel init files for a true solution :(

The vold method would work if there were edits to the kernel, so you had half the solution. Ran into the same mounting bug. Wonder if one if those dual mount apps would work. hmmm
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r4d14n7:
Cm7 fixes this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
I noticed this when I ran CM7 for a while. If I remember correctly, it mounts the internal to /mnt/emmc and external to /mnt/sdcard.

Unfortunately, there are a few issues that CM7 has that prevent me from keeping it as my daily driver OS (bluetooth issues, worse camera app, slow to no GPS locking, G2/3/4 data does not enable after wifi disconnect, and a few more). As it matures it could become the solution for me.

Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
Thanks for the info. At least I now know there is not a simple solution that was escaping me :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Why not, then, just reformat the microSD card to a file system that supports symlinks? Backup your data off it first, of course lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
Can you do that? Will it still be treated as an internal SD card then (for example, able to be accessed via USB on my computer)?

I did some reading about partitioning both the external and internal SD cards to ext3/4, but people didn't seem to have a "flawless" experience. This wasn't specific to the G2x however.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r4d14n7:
I'll be more specific. There was a fix for CM7 users to reverse the roles of internal and external storage somewhere in the monster CM7 threads. You could try this fix in reverse to the ROM of your choice. Just search the CM7 thread for information on how to swap internal for external. May or may not work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
Thanks,

I decided that the lack of being able to do this on stock was enough to go to CM7 again. The issues I described before are less annoying (to me) than not being able to save stuff to my external SD. Plus CM7 will always be getting updated as well.

Thanks for the help everyone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zimphishmonger:
Cause I still mount to a Win7 machine sometimes ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I used to use this with XP.

http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html

Haven't tried it with Windows 7. Maybe I'll do that tonight lol. There are some other standalone utilities for windows 7 that let you access ext2/3 file systems but I like this one because it lets windows access them as native file systems so you can access them through windows explorer, etc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I'll do some experimenting around. Not really sure.

[HTC Sensation] Flippy125:
I saw that the Galaxy Tab had gyroscope controls in NOVA and I was wondering if anyone knew if Gameloft had any plans to bring them to the Sensation. I'll probably email them tomorrow but it usually takes a week or two for them to respond so I thought I'd ask here and possibly help someone else.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Does the sensation have a gyro?
[HTC Sensation] mamarda:
yes sensation has Gyro but I haven't seen any games yet, that use this sensor
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
Asphalt 6
[HTC Sensation] mamarda:
no asphalt 6 uses only G-sensor, Gyro sensor is when it recognizes not only vertical movement but also horizontal...
[HTC Sensation] Flippy125:
I tested the gyro with an app called GyroRotate and it seems to work fine.
[HTC Sensation] Jayedamina:
a friend of mine bumped an apk to me v4.0.5 of N.O.V.A that uses the Gyroscope to navigate just like on the iphone. it's great, it just takes time getting used to. he told me he found it online somewhere.
[HTC Sensation] 2003evo8:
Hey guys/gals. Just got my Sensation and so far no problems, well except for certain apps. Right now I downloaded Pandora and for some reason, without even using it, a screen would pop up and say it has stop and is now terminated. It did it a few times so I uninstalled it. I was wondering if any other apps that anybody here downloaded is doing this. I wonder if gingerbread has anything to do with it. So post up any apps that you have installed on you Sensation that has done this.

Thanks.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafuru:
Hi, i just noted .. every time that i see the battery usage the most percentage is for the screen!! (41 % after 21 hours) is this normal?? :confused:

i have disabled the animations and other effects leaving just the bravia engine
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l3mm:
Yeah the screen is the biggest battery drainer by quite a bit. Try turning screen brightness down or put on auto if you havent already given that a go
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon33:
Don't worry much about it, it's normal that the display is always on top in terms of usage stats, it's ON most of the time coz we are using it(unless for music wherein display can be OFF).

If you actually want to minimize the battery drain due to display, just set the brightness as low as you can handle(i set mine usually around 30 to 40% brigthness only).

I'm actually surprised that you have low display usage in 21 hours, you must be a very casual user only. As far as I can remember, my fone never last me a day since I bought it. Coz I used 3g/data most of the time, surfing net and messenger.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafuru:
hmm may be a dumb question but, how i can set the brightness on auto?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l3mm:
I use the Power Control widget on screen. The three options are low, auto and full brightness so its just a case of cycling through each. You will know when youre on auto if you put your finger over the ambient light sensor you should see display adjusting
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafuru:
hmm on android assistant appears "Light sensor not avalible" .. it's possible that my arc doesn't have the light sensor, it's a prototype after all
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l3mm:
Not sure mate, maybe. Have u tried a reboot?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafuru:
Yep still "not avalible" ..

A last question, this arc (just as i said) it's a prototype, a very complete prototype. I just wanna know if this device is Sim unlocked (being a prototype). Or if the bootloader unlock can unlock the SIM too, i want to change of carrier.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shtreber:
please tell me when your battery is almost at the end, check how long was your screen turned on? i get around 4 hours, brightness 30-40%, with auto rotation, bravia off...
[HTC Sensation] Bsketball:
So, after a first full charge last night, I am still at 85%. Quite good if you ask me.

It's been off the charger for about 12 hours, and saw light usage today. Screen brightness is about 35%, which used 38% of the power.

Most of the time I had the screen off. I made a couple calls and texts, and did a bit of browsing, using the phone less than an hour in total.

Coming from the G2X, this is a big improvement, because it means I'll be able to go a couple days without charging if I need to. I'm sure my battery would drop fast with heavy usage, but this is good enough for me!
[HTC Sensation] swiftinmotion:
had the phone for almost two days.. getting about 14 hours on regular use for me. not bad considering its bone stock. I can manage:)
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
install Cut the Rope. You'll see your battery consumption increase drastically. that game is pure evil
[HTC Sensation] swiftinmotion:
I read a review not paying attention. Didnt see it in market or amazon store.. where can i DL it??. DL'd V3.0 just want to get it from a legit place.
[HTC Sensation] johnsmith970:

[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
i found that with minimum use, and constant reception, im getting almost 20hrs before i get the standard alert.

i usually use internet and gTalk A LOT during a day, and that yields around 10hrs.

but just recently i moved offices to an area with 0 reception or 3g, and when this fone seeks networks, it KILLS the battery, from 100% to 15% warning in just a few hrs o.O

all in all thought its got really good battery life, considering the specs
[HTC Sensation] Pikaraph:
Thanks, I was looking for this game on the market...

Why does the dev didn't put it on the market ? Is there some fee ?
[HTC Sensation] C0NAN:
How do you know the screen brightness percentage? Or is it just a rough estimate?
[HTC Sensation] DeoreDX:
I was hoping it would at least match my G2 considering it has a 20% larger battery but I could easily go twice as long on my G2 battery as the Sensation. And using the sensation at all really drains the battery fast. 30 minutes of GPS dropped my battery from 95% to 60%. That's just absurd.
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
lol i completely forgot about the GPS draining the battery, ive only used it twice and never again because its that bad :P thats a serious issue that hopefully gets fixed (not any time soon though, there are much more important issues at hand)
[HTC Sensation] Bsketball:
Just an estimate.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
it's free. I just went to their site, put it the Evo 4G since I don't think the Sensation is listed, downloaded the APK to my dropbox & then opened it on my phone.

I use brightness level/widget to set my screen brightness

according to Tom Gray, who's leaked fixed files I'll post later, to fix the sd card issue, remove autorun.iso from the /system/etc/ folder asap. it embeds itself in the sdcard and does some strange things.

just passing it along. will post newest gb leaked fixed files in the am when they are released on fb, unless someone beats me to it.
[Samsung Mesmerize] vicous707:
Am I first? :)
[Samsung Mesmerize] skynet11:
Autorun.iso is a CD image file that executes in Windows. When the phone is connected to your PC and it shows up as a CD drive in Windows Explorer, this file is responsible for that. As I understand, Verizon purposely designed their stock (bloatware/Bing) ROM so that your phone would show up as a CD drive when connected to your PC, unless you install a special program they provide for file transfer. If I'm right, this means that the stock EC09 leak would come with this file, and anyone building a custom ROM based on this leak would have to remove this file from the stock ROM.

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Samsung Mesmerize] vicous707:

Hi everyone,

I have this problem after I flash 2.3 HKTW.

I cannot download anything from Market through my 3G network.

once I click the download (or update) button, there is a notification appear says connect to WIFI to start the download. After I connect to Wifi, all download start immediately.

the download from website derectly on mobile browser is all good.

Does anyone have any idea how to bypass this? I dont think it is a market problem. It is a setting.
[Atrix 4G General] kmk2k6:
i have the same problem, i also am unable to find any resolution.
[Atrix 4G General] bobosky520:
I REflash my atrix again, the problem is still there.

so weir
[Atrix 4G General] cerowand:
I am also having this issue. I have 2.3.4 baseband N_01.97.00R.

I was able to download apps on 3G after the inital flash but now for some reason I cannot.
[Atrix 4G General] bobosky520:
Wow, I thought it might be the network problem from Rogers Canada,

you are in ATT, so it might be the ROM problem.

PS. you device upgrade route is the same as mine, AT&T 8525 > iPhone 3G > Motorola Atrix, beside I dont use samsung.
[Atrix 4G General] donniesd:
I am having no problems downloading from market over 3G. I would reflash the ROM.
[Atrix 4G General] cerowand:
Tried to reflash, it fails. I cannot even get back to 1.5.7,it fails to. :(

So I did a wipe/factory reset, Did a wipe of Dalvik Cache. Had to add AT&T APN the one there was not working, works fine now. I was even able to reset up motoblur with my existing account but still no Market downloads without wifi..

Now I am getting fustrated!

Hopefully someone has an idea. Everything works, no issues with messaging, email, internet. Just the market and I tried to download from the web market, got the same result.
[Atrix 4G General] bobosky520:
Do you mean the market on 1.5.7 also fail? or you cannot flash back to 1.5.7?
[Atrix 4G General] cerowand:
FIXED IT!!!!

You will have to do a factory reset. When the phone reboots and you reset up motoblur at the end it brings up Data Saver. DO NOT CHECK IT! leave it off. The explanation for Market says "Automaticlly queues downloads until you are connected to a Wi-Fi network"

One other thing, I had to reset my APN manually after the restore.

But it works now :)

We all pay high prices for our devices, but do we really own them?

Clearly this community exists almost for the sole purpose of allowing people to truly take control of their devices (e.g. root).

We pay for hardware but are restricted access to it by the manufacturers in cohorts with the carriers to prevent us from actually using our "unlimited data" plans, andor stop us from jumping ship to the competition.

We are forced to 'hack' the devices we pay exorbitant prices for and told the act of doing so somehow damages the device, voiding the warranties.

Where will the carriers and MFGs stop? When this community and others continue to break every security measure conceivable, will they resort to litigation (e.g. RIAA, MPAA) as a deterrent to users simply using the hardware in their hands the way they choose? Will they seek to criminalize such acts--a quintessential War on Root?

There is no doubt this thriving community is taking control of their devices, but do we really own them?
