I tried the "never sleep" setting in spare parts, but the setting doesn't hold when I exit the program and open it again, it goes back to "android default". I don't see anywhere in the phone wi-fi settings to change the sleep options.

I'm unaware of any apps I'm running that put the phone to sleep, and I'm not sure what the display settings accomplish but I can try it.

None of this happened before, only thing that really has changed for me is that I got the iGrip car dock and the phone has seen dock mode a little bit. That and I went to a house with spotty wi-fi and my phone would connect and disconnect at the range of the router. I've had other issues with app/camera freezing, I'm hoping it's sd card related or perhaps due to ota's not taking correctly. I'm gonna try a sd card format/phone data reset to see if that remedies all the issues, otherwise I might go in for an exchange.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
BS. You shouldn't have to wait for a custom rom for your phone to be running normal. Take that **** back again.

[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
This happens to me. I have noticed it only happens if I have had my phone get below 30% battery at some point and the power save mode kicks in. For some reason it is not switching it back once power save mode is disabled.

[HTC EVO 3D] spookytay:
The setting isn't located under Wi-fi, look under Power, you should see the options in there. Turn power saver off, or adjust it's settings, and see if that helps, I wouldn't use spare parts
[HTC EVO 3D] nhutpham:
I did a full phone/sd card reset, and the problem STILL exists for me. Spare parts did restore itself as one of the applications that got restored, I uninstalled it without running it though. My phone settings seem to have gotten reset as well. I don't get it, my phone was fine even with spare parts installed before.

I might try another reset and see if spare parts still restores itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
Are you.running spare parts plus??? Also the settings for the wifi never sleep is located in settings/wireless networks/wifi settings. Then hit menu and select advanced then choose wifi sleep policy. Also make sure best performance is selected.

I have a GT-I5500...it's aparently a german device according to my pcode...I am unsure of why i cannot get a 3g signal in my area. 3g is available in my market, and my settings are the same as my old device (I copied them from the old device when i transferred the sim card). the phone is brand new, and otherwise works great. was able to upgrade to Froyo using kies, but still don't have a 3g setting. I have checked regularly and the use 2g servers is not checked. I know i can get a 3g connection, but is it possible there is something i am not doing with it, or something i can change to make it work? my carrier is a 3g GSM network, so i know the device should pick it up. any ideas?

BTW...only running on stock at this time...not rooted but running 2.2 froyo.

I was wondering if ipod touch and iphone accessories work with the new ipad.

Things like 3.5mm headsets, usb wall and car chargers, microphones, etc. Basically everything that plugs into your ipod and iphone.

Thanks.

I assume headsets are oaky, not sure about the wall charger though. You could try, and let me know how it works. lol

i made another post regarding download issues with my Inc 2 but it has come to my attention that certain browsers now block you from being able to download stuff like .mp3 files. that being the case, I currently use the stock browser, dolphin hd and skyfire. downloads dont seem to work with any of them.

does anyone know of a browser that will allow you to download media?... and to let you know, i can download torrents just fine with adownloader.

Download astro file manager. Go into preferences and check the box to allow browser downloads.

Has anyone had a problem where Google Music is listed in the Updates section of the Market, but won't update? A dialogue window flashes up and then disappears again.

I tried clearing the data, but it's made no difference.

I'm not located in the US if that changes things, but Google Music is still listed in the Market (and was installed by default anyhow).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty5689:
You can always google "Music Beta 3.0.1 apk" and install it manually, you'll still be able to do market updates for it in the future. As to your fix, have you tried rebooting the device? It fixes install problems for me that way.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Axyl:
Thanks, I had to reinstall the app as adb install initially reported INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXISTS .

The following however worked, once I'd grabbed the apk file...in case anyone else has the issue in the future.

adb install -r com.google.android.music-2.apk
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ebaum1:

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
I wasn't particularly eager to install xdandroid (even though I was excited about the concept) until I read ryannathans' thread. Granted it isn't organized well, but it doesn't assume knowledge that isn't there, which makes it ideal for the type of noob that will read.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Both XDAndroid builds are rooted - do you mean replacing WinMo? It's possible, but not stable. Doesn't play nice at all with GSM devices, and it's not easy/simple on CDMA ones.

See

NAND Testing - 05-25 Update: New LK, Recovery.img, Kernel Updates through Recovery if you want to know moar.

Is there something I should add to mine? I'm always open to suggestion, if you feel my first post is missing something that's essential, please do tell :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
I don't see the point, everything I needed was in ryan's thread. They serve different purposes. You seem to mostly be focused on FRX06, getting people onto that entry level stable build. You mention kernels and the new rootfs in your thread, leaving someone like me to wonder WTF is a rootfs and kernel? Ryan fills in the blanks and focuses on getting people who don't know squat to FRX6.5, and gives us just enough info to understand the threads he links to. There's no reason for you to duplicate that. :)

[Acer Iconia A500] frankfurtjoe:
Hi, perhaps i have missed something here but is it not possible to for instance have music playing while browsing ? or do i need to run some non OOB app to achieve this ?

Thanks for any pointers
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
Off course it's possible. Hell I'm on the other side of this. I'm afraid of runing any music because I usually struggle to turn it off then. Just don't press the back key on the app. Use the Home key instead and it should continue playing in the background.
[Acer Iconia A500] Neoprimal:
It helps to think of the back button like the red button in Windows or OSX.

The red/x or close in Windows doubles it's function for some apps but in general it means close/quit. For many it can and does mean close/minimize where it sends the program to your notification area vs. eliminating it from memory.

It's a similar situation with Android. Most programs will close/quit when you press back. Every game I've played, some utilities, many apps - but a few will remain open and simply get out of your way (GTalk, Yahoo, Pandora, etc.).

Because of this, you should just make a habit of using the home button vs. the back button to multitask. It'll save you frustration from accidentally quitting the apps you wish to continue running in the background.

Some examples Music apps that do not close when you hit 'back' is Google Music and Doubletwist. I'm not sure if Google Music is out of beta yet.

Good Luck.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vereynn:
I think the only exception is if you're listening to music in a tab in the browser, I don't believe active content in background browser tabs continues.

Otherwise, yep, fire up Pandora or the music app, start your music, then hit Home and fire up your other apps. You should see a music activity notice in the Notifications bar.

The cracks apear arround the black sensor at the left to the ear speaker(is this the light sensor?) and arround the volume buttons on the right.

I've did some searching on the net and found a few other people on the dutch GOT forum with the same cracks on the Arc. Anyone on XDA got these problems?

Om je een service locatie te adviseren zou ik graag willen weten in de buurt van welke plaatst dat zou moeten zijn. Dank je.

translated by google:
