[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardealul:
is there a way to allow simultaneous use of usb mass storage and usb tethering ?

would be really nice if i could use my phone as thumb drive with portable browser to surf the net via 3g conn on same device :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronj1986:
Just enable mobile hotspot, listed under tethering, then use your phone as a USB MASS STORAGE device. The mobile hotspot gives you internet access wirelessly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardealul:
the idea was to do it all wired.

pls stop moving posts between sections :(

i posted this question in the android development section for a reason. the only possible answer would be a hybrid modem for android with this functionality .... so android development

I really don't understand what's wrong whit those threads, i mean, if you look in Development forum there are many Custom Roms topics, every chef gave description of what does and doesn't work in theyr roms, there are people that report back issue and not of that roms, so what i'm asking to myself is:

Is it really necessary to open a thread for "what is the most stable rom?".

Am i wrong here?

I know, this is general forums but it doesn't mean that every new user should post here these no sense threads ( no offence here).

Again, am i wrong? Because sometimes i was told that i'm evil to close some kinds of threads.

I know that new users cannot post in dev section but IMO all these questions have an answer only by reading Rom Threads.

I don't want to be "the evil moderator" since that, if i can, i like to be helpful, say that, i can make a sticky thread for a general vision, pro/cons of every x8 roms but someone need to start and take care of it because i don't have an X8.

let me know.

[XPERIA X8 General] Coffinator:
I really like racht's roms, there are less services running in background than others and is a pretty stable rom. I've been using it for weeks and i had no reboots. About the battery drain question, disable the automatic sinc in the options.
[XPERIA X8 General] hasrul5585:
its only my opinion... already tried floyo, miniCM and froyobread....

1) floyo is fast but battery drain very fast..

2) the most stable is miniCM.. all is working and suitable for daily use

3) stable rom with gingerbread look...

try all of em yourself and pick what u like....
[XPERIA X8 General] ctinro:
I believe I've tried all kind of ROMs: 2.2.1, 2.2.9 (?) and 2.3.4. For me kuyaDROID was the fastest and stable 2.3.4. But all 2.3.4 I have tried consumed my battery at most in a day (also kuya's). One version ate my battery in a half of day. So, for the moment, I decided to come back to 2.2.1 (floyo-0.20) which is the fastest (1000+), stable and battery care (more than two days) for me. An advice: you will see here different opinions for the same ROM - so try all for youself, and make your own opinion. Good luck.
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
I've had this installed for a couple of weeks and I can say that I really like it. I've always used Best Skins Ever, but wanted to give something else a try this time around. Install was a breeze. The skin has a real "fiber" feel to it and is not tacky like other skins. It provides no impact resistance whatsoever, but I've never needed that. I hate adding bulky cases to sexy devices. Sorry for the so-so image quality. Pics were taken with my friend's OG Droid.

[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
So I have a perfectly good 4G LTE signal going, data speeds are great and all, but every once in a while it will just stop receiving data. The 4G LTE icon is still there, occasionally I see the upstream arrow flash, but the downstream arrow remains blank. A difference that I see from other people's connectivity issues is that I never once see it switch to 3G/1X when this happens.

One thing to note is that this behavior is not readily apparent until you're doing something real-time network dependent, like streaming audio/video for a considerable duration of time until it cuts you off suddenly.

Between 10 seconds to several minutes after data stops transmitting, it starts working again. Sometimes I get impatient and just toggle between CDMA only/LTE automatic to get 4G LTE working again without having to wait.

Is this a common issue among Charge owners? I noticed the reviewer at Anandtech had a near identical experience (though not always fixable without a reboot for him):

After conversing a bit with him (he also reviewed the Thunderbolt/Revolution), this apparently only happens with the Charge, but he also has faith that Samsung would fix this through software (RIL) or hardware (firmware). Given Samsung's track record with smartphone updates, I'm not so sure they will.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chaoscentral:
Considering a month after the phone's launch we already have a Gingerbread leak I think this device will most definitely see support from Samsung. It is a DROID branded phone after all, and Verizon is statistically the best carrier for updates, they do take special care of the "DROID" phones over every other Android handset.
[Verizon Droid Charge] distortedloop:
4G is flakey, on both devices that offer it. I have both the Thunderbolt and Charge with me most of the time, and I see all kinds of flakiness on both. It's the network.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Goronok:
It is definitely the network. I had a Thunderbolt before the Charge and it was FAR worse with network connectivity falling off the face of the planet despite having full 3g/4g.
[Verizon Droid Charge] StoneCold X:
I have had the same problem. I usually wait and it comes back in about 30-45 seconds, but it is annoying. It was really bad for a couple of days but has been better the past couple.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
I personally haven't had to much issue with 4g dropping out. However people need to keep in mind that LTE is new for both the mfgs & carrier. So it is going to take time to get all these bugs worked out. That said I have to give props to VZW and the mfgs tho because back when they were building out 3G originally you want to talk about issues my lord was it bad.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Homestar1217:
I have had this issue, with the 3G and the 4G, but I can't say that it's a deal breaker for me, compared to the lousy HSPA+ signal my Vibrant had. It's only ever happened to me at my house, which is right on the edge of LTE coverage, so it switches back and forth a lot. But I have to give the network the benefit of the doubt for right now, it's a brand new network and a brand new device. And the 97% of the time that things work properly, it's so far above and beyond the T-Mobile network I have no regrets about switching.
[Verizon Droid Charge] binglejellsx2:
I called Verizon with the same issue last Friday. Their resolution after a couple of questions was to overnight me a new (certified like-new) Charge and SIM card - the replacement was received on Monday. I haven't had any issues since, but I also stopped seeing the issue after I made the complaint. :confused:

Regardless, replacement has been better and locks a GPS signal much quicker. Maybe it's the SIM card?
[Verizon Droid Charge] guruleenyc:
SAME CRAP HERE!!!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
I tested if I have this behavior using LTE only mode (dial **583 in Phone app) and indeed I do, so this furthers my belief that my issue is not due to something wrong in the hand-off between 4G/3G.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
I found out the way to actually change the data modes and tested using EV-DO Rev. A instead of eHRPD (in conjunction with LTE) and also using just CDMA 1X (in conjunction with LTE, essentially disabling 3G), but my issue of dropping data exists. The 4G LTE icon is displayed the entire time when it happens, I just seem to lose connectivity (and all three of the tests in the Phone Info area fail) temporarily. For what it's worth, I'm not moving the phone around at all when this happens.

I think I would actually be more content if when the data connection stalled, my 4G LTE icon just disappeared or if it switched to 3G because then it would make more sense to me (that I may have lost connection to the 4G service and it's attempting to reconnect to either 3G or 4G), but as it stands, all I get is a constant 4G icon with intermittent dropouts. The switch to 3G/1X seems to be the more common issue among 4G smartphone owners, but my (and the reviewer at Anandtech's) issue seems to deal completely within the 4G network, and I've tried every leaked radio to no avail.

The regularity of the dropouts seems kind of random as well; I'm not sure how I can figure out the source of the issue. Does anyone know if there are some logs that I can look into to see if something is happening to my phone at the very instant that I'm having these stalls?

Of course, I'm not discounting the fact that it might completely be on the side of Verizon's network and/or my area in San Diego and has nothing to do with my phone, and I may in a minority of users that actually continuously uses the 4G enough to notice these dropouts, which on average happen once every half hour to hour or so. Sometimes I'm able to stream something for several hours without the stalls, and other times it'll happen frequently within a short time span.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Racer447:
I just got off the phone with tech support for the intermittent data drop problem. After confirming that I was on EE4, and that I had tried doing a factory reset, he is fedexing me a new sim card.

Really hope it works, I love the phone but losing data for 1-2 minutes at a time randomly is pretty lame. Especially since I switched to Verizon for their reputation as the better network.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
Is your problem the same as mine (data drops all while 4G icon is displayed) or is yours the more common 4G to 3G/1X transition or losing the 4G network icon data drop?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Racer447:
The data will stop. Then the 4g or 3g icon will disappear entirely for a minute. Then it will reconnect at either 4g,3g or 1x, I don't really see a clear pattern, it seems totally random to me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
Is there anyone who's reading this that regularly uses their 4G continuously (i.e. hours) for streaming web content (e.g. radio streams, live video streams, etc.)? If so, do you experience any occasional dropouts or is the 4G connection for you rock solid?
[Verizon Droid Charge] fortesquieu:
hey, I have exactly the same problem!
[Verizon Droid Charge] fender22:

[Verizon Droid Charge] Rominucka:
A couple of days ago my SIM card crapped out.

Now that i have a new one my 4G signal has been more consistent and stronger than ever. I live in a fringe area and before the new SIM it would constantly switch between 4 and 3G. Now i go for hours on 4G and it even stays on 4G in places that it would always switch and stay on 3G.

Get a new SIM before getting a new phone.

Sent from my Samsung Droid Charge: Stock EE4
[Verizon Droid Charge] calimansi:
After reading this thread I'm considering switching to either the Thunderbolt or the Revolution, or something else when it comes out...

Anyway, I have experienced this same thing.

The only difference in my situation is that I'm trying to use my LTE internet as a dedicated connection. The setup I'm trying to do is plug my phone into my router and have the router distribute the verizon LTE internet through my apartment. My router currently has the latest version of tomato installed and I compiled my own RNDIS module (modified to work with the charge). Everything works for the first few minutes (15-20), then I notice the 4G icon "stall", then disappear, then reconnect. After the first disconnect and reconnect, the internet connection is very unstable and will disconnect every couple of minutes until I disable and re-enable the internet again... very frustrating.

In the interim, I've been using EasyTether and this works very well. I have streamed hours of 720P video and it works flawless; not one skip or reconnect.

This leads me to believe that it is either one of the following:

The kernel - I'm currently using the PBJT kernel found in the latest version of humble. I'm not sure if the stock rom will provide better stability.

The radio - I currently have the EE4 radio installed, but am very curious to know the stability of the GB radio updates (EP1f, etc.).

Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I am getting this same problem. I have had.this phone for 2 days and i notice my 4g/data completely dying on me almost everytime time i let the phone hit deep sleep. I am loving this phone but cant restart it everytime i need to use google maps. I'm a bike messenger and that would cost me money. If this gives me problems anytime over the work week i am getting rid of this phone.

[Verizon Droid Charge] ryandrummer86:
I have this same problem, thought maybe it was due to using PDANet when I tether but most likely that's just coincidental as the most time I spend using the LTE for an extended period of time is when I'm tethering to my laptop. What will happen is the LTE symbol will continue to show the uplink working but nothing coming through the downlink. I have to resolve this by toggling the mobile data off then back on. It's a pain because it usually happens every 10 minutes if not more frequently. I've had this occur now while tethering both in my city (Milwaukee) and in St Paul which both have 4G. So right now I'm trying to figure out if this is something wrong with the phone, the app I'm using (PDANet - although I think I've had this happen without tethering), or just the network (but like I said I've had this occur in two different cities). With that said, thinking it must be something with the phone.

Also, this is with a completely stock Droid Charge, haven't rooted it yet or anything because I may return it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bensaved:
Makes me wonder if it's big V doing rolling data "Brown-outs" on big data users to keep network availability higher. Kinda like the California power grid had to do.

Or they could be putting hiccups into your connection to discourage tethering for free. Has anyone had this problem that pays VZW for tethering? Could be something intentional but not "official policy." If I were writing switching firmware it's something I'd consider setting up, but giving loopholes for those who complain like if your card is newer than so many days, or on an exceptions list. Just sayin, companies do things to protect the bottom line.
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterDLai:
This was happening to me when I was using the mobile hotspot trial and also happens to me while not tethering (streaming a Justin.tv stream in the Android browser for example).
[Verizon Droid Charge] Racer447:
I can say for certainty that I was having this problem when I was 100% stock, so I would rule out #1.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jbass350z:
I have this problem too and it makes me wonder how widespread this is, or if it is a small percentage of users. 4G turns itself off constantly, and I know the signal is strong. I can switch to CDMA only and back to LTE/CDMA and 4g works again, but this is an unacceptable solution.

I love the phone, but 4G apparently is not ready to real world use if this is going to keep happening. I was always led to believe that Verizon thoroughly tested their products before releasing them, which is why they always get phones and updates last.

I hope someone can come up with a fix.
