[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rab1412000:
i want to use driving mode also.

but sometimes it reads the contact names and sometimes it doesnt. sometimes it just reads the contacts phone numbers.

i thought it needed internet to work but ive noted it reading out sms senders even when offline.

also

so yes how does it work? and why is there such a discrepancy in how it operates especially with regards to sms (which is what i use it for). does it d/l files from the internet or does it have a built in database?

So basically I am asking for a dock and icon combo that looks nice with an AOSP GB ROM. Not the actual default icons but something that matches aesthetically. 5 icons preferred :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] badfinger:
i've been having this prob lately. after screen timeout, i cannot wake up tf again using quick press on the power button or hitting the rightmost top button on the dock. the only way to get the screen lighting up again is by hard pressing the power button for maybe 10 seconds, as if i am booting it up again. any apps that manages sleep/wake up button? i had an archos 101 before and i remember it had "deep sleep", "power off", "restart" etc. options when the power button is pressed. why doesn't my tf have this?

I am using a class 4 card, with GingerBurst ROM, the 720p playback on the phone lags. how can i fix this? i heard its the rom issue
[Desire General] Pipusz:
As far as I know, it is a common problem in all Gingerbread ROMs.
[Desire General] sebastianlow:
is there a fix or something to make it less laggy?
[Desire General] Pipusz:
Well, Baadnewz (InsertCoin ROM) has something, I don't know whether it works or not, never tried.

It should work on InsertCoin, don't know the other ROMs.

SG2 should have some form of hardware encryption - how does this work?

/Voz
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micksta:
It can be enabled through an Exchange Active Sync policy. You could create a Device Administrator account and enable it that way....

You can't just tick a 'Encrypt Device' button if that's what you're interested in!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vozie_Stockholm:
Aha, not familliar with this. I suppose I do this both on the handset and server end?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micksta:
It is set on the server end, the client (handset) just enforces the server specified rules.

In regards to the Exchange Active Sync Policy, you specify the policy on the Exchange server, then when you connect your phone to Exchange, it created a Device Administrator and asks for permissions to be able to encrypt everything.

If you developed an app that created a Device Administrator, you could encrypt everything that way? I don't know as I am unsure of how to create a 'Device Administrator'
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vozie_Stockholm:
Ok, thanks, I'll check it out!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] give:
Sorry if this is a dumb question, how do you create a Device Administrator account? When I go to Settings/Location and Security/Device Administrator (Add or remove device administrators) it says "No device administrators available" and no matter what button I try I can't get an option to add a device administrator?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSaw:
I'm not too familiar with this either, but as I know it, you can't add admin account, that's just a list with apps which have admin rights (e.g. Elixir, Lookout, etc)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faildroid:
So without an Exchange server there is no way of using the "On Device Encryption"?

Wouldn't that be kinda silly? :confused:

I have continuum with dl17 I want to root it but I have no pc can some one help me I have read some phones can be rooted by android terminal emulators can some one figure out how to do this an d give me the commands lines and names of things to download

Thanks please give me any advice you can
[Continuum General] forcifer:
umm as far as i know, in order for a terminal emulator to work you have to have root privileges. in order to root most phones now you have to have a computer at hand to connect to
[Continuum General] Buddy420:
Dang there has gotta be a way is z4root still being developed an updated version that worked with my phone would be awesome
[Continuum General] forcifer:
unfortunately z4root works by way of USB debugging when the device is connected to a computer. someone else can probably clarify this more than i can, but that is how i understand it
[Continuum General] Weudel:
There's a working one-click root if you have a Windows PC. If not there are other ways, but you'll probably have to catch someone on the IRC chat to talk you through it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkymack:
I'm running MIUI 1.7.1. I've got a static IP, and I'm unable to connect to WIFI in my home. The mobile continually cycles to "Obtaining IP address" and then fails.

I've power-cycled the router, tried setting the WIFI to scan 13 and 14 channels, etc. If I don't set the Static IP, I can connect to the network, but I get no data transfer without it. Changing settings on the router is not an option (my landlord pays for our internet, and he's added the static IP as a security measure).

When I downloaded the latest Cyanogen yesterday, it connected via static IP without hesitation, which leads me to believe it isn't the hardware. But after switching back and forth, now Cyanogen won't connect either.

Here's my current setup:

HTC Desire

MIUI 1.7.1 English

AmonRa Recovery

Kernel: I've used both the MIUI stock and ManU-2.0-GB-HAVS-AXI-128-CFS kernels, both with the same result

Radio: 5.09.05.30_2

HBOOT 0.93.0001 S-ON

Has anyone experienced similar problems?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkymack:
Also, still with the same setup (but the static IP turned off), I can connect to other WIFI hotspots and achieve data transfer.

Welcome to xda developers!

Just browse to settings/software tool/Erase all content and settings.

That should remove all the previous user settings. If thats not enough, reflash the stock advent v1.10 firmware, then install what you want from there.

I have done this many times.

Steps:

1) open root explorer, mount as r/w, go to data, system, and delete batterystats.bin

2) pull off you battery, don't shut it down, just pull it off.

3) insert back your battery, don't turn it on, and let it charge until it say 100%.

4) after 100%, don't pull your charger yet, turn your phone on. let it charge again until 100%, then pull your charger, now you will see your battery says "100%".

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kokuyo:
Hello everyone

We will be moving close to the border soon and I noticed our devices (my wife also has a Desire Z, though it is stock) tend to connect to services from across the border.

Now having turned off data roaming, this isn't that big of a deal but roaming calls still cost more this way AND I can't use navigation because data roaming is deactivated.

Now I know I can set my preferred service provider, but can I also lock it (meaning: turn off roaming completely) so I have to manually allow roaming to accur when, and only when, I truly need it?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bonusbartus:
If you go to Wireless and networking settings you can select "mobile networks", the same screen you select dataroaming...

you can select your mobile provider I think that when you select Search for network and you select one network it won't automatically select a new one if your connection gets low.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kokuyo:
That's what I thought, too, but in reality, it didn't really work. Although I have received a hint that it might only work if mobile data was deactivated at that moment. I'll try this thursday... let's see what happens.

Any ideas?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] borgmanjayce:
It's interesting to see that I'm not the only one who's got the same problem.

@dindia2 How did you know that the partition that it was attached to was FAT32 and not EXT2 (I take it that's the main internal partition that you're referring to?)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dindia2:
That's exactly the problem - in Windows EXT2 was attached - i figured that out when I tried to format it - it was only 1.5GB - the size of EXT2

I eventually used xRecovery to format it to 2GB ext2, 54MB swap and the rest of 32GB for fat 32

Sorry for delay, Danny
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] borgmanjayce:
So I take it the only way to fix this problem is to format the phone itself? If so, that sucks!:(

[HTC Sensation] d-iivil:
So... finally got to test out the bluetooth A2DP with my Sensation and I was very disappointed. Sound quality is like listening 64kbps MP3 :-(

After googling and searching this forum I found that this is not the first Android phone which has the issue, but so far didn't any solution on how to "fix" it.

Allthough I did some digging in the filesystem and found that /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf hold these values:

# Configuration file for the audio service

# This section contains options which are not specific to any
# particular interface
# NOTE: Enable=Sink means that bluetoothd exposes Sink interface for remote
# devices, and the local device is a Source
[General]
Enable=Sink,Control
Disable=Headset,Gateway,Source

# Do not require master role for incoming connections
Master=false

# SCO routing. Either PCM or HCI (in which case audio is routed to/from ALSA)
# Defaults to HCI
#SCORouting=PCM

# Automatically connect both A2DP and HFP/HSP profiles for incoming
# connections. Some headsets that support both profiles will only connect the
# other one automatically so the default setting of true is usually a good
# idea.
#AutoConnect=true

# Headset interface specific options (i.e. options which affect how the audio
# service interacts with remote headset devices)
#[Headset]

# Set to true to support HFP (in addition to HSP only which is the default)
# Defaults to false
#HFP=true

# Maximum number of connected HSP/HFP devices per adapter. Defaults to 1
#MaxConnections=1

# Just an example of potential config options for the other interfaces
[A2DP]
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0

[AVRCP]
InputDeviceName=AVRCP

But since there's no root (only temp root) I'm not allowed to edit the file. I'm just wondering if changing these values would make the quality better:

#AutoConnect=true

(I'm having issues to auto-connect to my A2DP receiver, have to manually connect every time)

#SCORouting=PCM

(don't know what this is, but sounds like it's related to compression used to transfer the audio?)

SBCSources=1

MPEG12Sources=0

(maybe disabling the SBCSources and enabling the MPEG12Sources would force the A2DP to use MPEG12 so there would not be any re-encoding?)

I'm really disappointed with my device when coming to this. My six years old Nokia was capable to play music via A2DP with full quality.

I have two receivers, one is LiquidAux from Kensington and one is "OEM" receiver from local electronics store. Both sounds like crap with Sensation :mad:
[HTC Sensation] Flashmore:
I have to agree, however, I have had mixed or rather inconsistant results, perhaps a bt3 a2dp could improve quality? I dont know. Other HTC devices I owned have same issue, Sensation via headphones however is simply second to none! not even my ipod sounds as good, not nearly!
[HTC Sensation] d-iivil:
I think the case here is that the audio is re-compressed to SBC with very low bitrate. It also seems to re-encode MP3-files even the receiver is capable to receive them directly without re-encoding.

Can't believe this is possible in 2011, like I sais, half decade old Nokia can handle the A2DP flawlessly and my brand new 550€ "MULTIMEDIA SUPERPHONE" (quote from HTC's website) can't :(
[HTC Sensation] Solidus_n313:
That's strange, I don't usually use a2dp, I've opted to use Btmono with my old bt headset (better battery life) and I haven't had a single issue with calls, alerts or music/videos...the only "downside" is mono audio, but the app says it all
[HTC Sensation] d-iivil:
You can't really compare a mono headset to professional Hi-Fi system which I use outputting the music to my ears.

I know that Bluetooth ain't a HiFi solution in the first place, but it still would be nice to listen some random music from my phone while driving. Now the quality is so bad that it's not even usable and I know this is not normal, A2DP is capable of transferring audio with decent quality (my other devices can do it).
[HTC Sensation] familyhousing:
I've posted about this several times but never got any interest. I'm glad it is not just me. The quality is shockingly bad on Sensation A2DP. My last HTC device (Legend) had varying A2DP quality with certain stock ROM updates, but it was never as bad as this. The difference in quality between the Sensation and, for example, a Sony A series walkman is staggering.

With a good bluetooth headset, A2DP can actually be better quality than a cabled connection (especially with the crappy d2a and amp components on most phones).
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
need that 2.0 to 3.0 compatibility fixed, pronto...

the sensation is bluetooth 3.0 and I have 2.0 stereo headphones. They worked great with the hd2. Now the sensation is mucking it up. I can hear music and movies great. I just can't use it to talk like I used to - which is my primary reason to have it. Need a fix or an explanation...
[HTC Sensation] howetechnical:
Odd, my Motorolla S9-HD's sound fantastic with the Sensation. Just today I listened first to some music using the paid Pandora, then a few MP3's, then a podcast while cleaning up the yard and lawn. Bass was deep and lows/mids were very good, from what I could tell. Maybe the S9-HD's have a chip to make it sound better or something, dunno.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
what about talking on it? does the person on the other end hear an echo?
[HTC Sensation] shizeon:
I've noticed very bad A2DP quality as well. With my N1, I would play music all day through the same Bluetooth receiver and not notice anything. With the Sensation everything is extremely 'muddy'. It sounds exactly it is being transcoding in to SBC, instead of using the mp3 passthrough stream which is what my N1 was doing. I'm just assuming this since I can't figure out a way to verify other than the crappy sounding audio now... This is using a Sound-Fly BT receiver.

Now, I also have a Motorola S10-HD a2dp headset and both the N1 and the Sensation sound just fine there..

My only guess is that the Sensation is not able to establish an mp3 channel with the SoundFly-BT (like the N1 can), but it can to the S10-HD.

BTW, regular calls using the HFP profile seem just fine.
[HTC Sensation] kevsteele:
I had the same problem - I got music, but phone audio didn't work.

I went into Settings>Wireless & Networks>Bluetooth Settings, long-pressed on the bluetooth device I was using, selected options, unchecked both "Phone" and "Media", then re-checked them both.

After that, I got both A2DP media audio, as well as phone headset functionality.

Hope this helps!
