hello gaise,

I'm from malaysia, and about to go to the US to pursue my studies.

I'm thinking about getting this phone in malaysia, but what I'm really concern is whether this phone will be compatible with the US network or it would be end up sitting in a trashcan somewhere in states. Should I just bought my phone in the US???

Since I only know this 2 network operator, at&t and tmobile.what is the best carrier in the sense of their wireless coverage and data plans ?

thank you in advance
[HTC Incredible S] sdxda:
wierd place to ask this question. But the 710a is for at&t and the 710e will work on t-mobile. You can go to their websites and look up their 3g/4g coverage wherever you plan to be. If money is not a problem, I would go with AT&T.
[Streak 5 General] Final5k:
Anyone know where I can get the plastic cover that covers the front camera and light sensor? Mine is very scratched and need to change it.
[Streak 5 General] lyanch:
yeah, I know a site who sales them

but I new to this forum and have less then 8 posts yet so i'm not allow to post a outside link, maybe I can PM u.
[Streak 5 General] Final5k:
Lyanch thanks for the link - I've taken a look at the website but it seems really fishy. There are at least 2 other websites similar to the one you've sent me (Gogotoshop). What is really weird is that they all have similar website layout and there is nothing mentionned about them or their location!

Does anyone know anything about the 3 websites below and have bought anything with them? Are they trustworthy?

Hi,

I have a problem with my Streak running dell upgrade 2.2.2. Yesterday i was using the wifi hotspot and also tried to turn om the usb which resulted in force close

After this i cant acces Wireless & networks in Settings, results in force close. Have tried reboot and battery out but no luck.

Any suggestions? Factory reset?

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] cdzo72:
May not hurt to download the factory update.pkg to your SD card and flash it over your current ROM without doing a factory reset and see if that clears it up for you.

If I were you though, I would root it if you haven't done so already and also install StreakMod. Once you have that done, you can boot into the StreakMod recovery and clear cach and dalvik cache and see if that helps.

But if you are all stock, it won't hurt one bit to flash a stock ROM on top of what you already have. If you are unlocked, then you can use 354
[Streak 5 General] mcernvall:
Thanks for reply and suggestion. I dont have root and it seems like Dell no longer provide their 2.2.2 update. Whats the 354?
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
You can download ROMs here.

Is your Streak locked to AT&T? If it is, there was no 2.2.2 version for your phone, but you can use BB 351 or 354.

Lots of info about how to flash a rom is available, you can try the links in my signature to find more info or search.
[Streak 5 General] mcernvall:
Thanks. My phone is bought in sweden and not locked to any carrier. I used the 351 update provided by dell right away when I got my streak two months ago. The problem actually went away yesterday and i guess i will have to see how it turns out.

Hello all,

I have been flashing My x10i From the J released the first Rom. So I am Not That Noob. But From Around 15 days my Wifi Does Not Work in any Rom. Not Even the Stock.

Last Thing i remember is i flashed the bootloader files that day and a custom kernal. is That responsible?

i have installed many roms, after that But i get Weird problems Like the network is connected but no internet

Is there any Way to Help Me.?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] changeofseasons:
Thats wierd. When you say stock rom, you mean you flashed your phone in flashtool? Whats your current baseband?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japinder:
a factory reset & cache wipe + stock ROM (with SEUS/PC Companion/xRecovery/Flashtool etc) ideally should work wonders...

custom kernels sometimes bring their own issues which are fixed in later releases (e.g. Wolfbreak's Xperia TW V008 custom zKernel had some issues, which was later fixed in zKernel 05072011, which incidentally introduced wifi issues, which were further resolved by an update of the individual wifi module)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i-shakir:
Yes i mean Flashtool, When i use Stock rom/2.1 rom i do get connected to wifi sometimes but only a few. i get Unable to connect to wifi/'error" in some.

I am Currently using bb67, ewjet rom. i do get connected to wifi few times. Like i flashed this rom 2 days back and i get connected to wifi today 2 times that too after a long time of trying.

Looking for some help.

[GT540 Optimus General] rajatbajpai0072:
Hi guys from few days i heard about multi boot option for x10 , is this possible with our handset also :confused:...if yes :) please any tell me ....thanks in advance...
[GT540 Optimus General] effortless.:
In theory, yes. For example, you can flash a boot.img file to the recovery partition (Recovery images are basically boot.imgs but with modified ramdisks) then it would boot, but you would need to re-partition the device, or use the SDCard as means of dual booting (Like some early Android ROMs were for the HD2)
[GT540 Optimus General] Danzano:
Already on it for debian Lenny and Ubuntu jaunty
[GT540 Optimus General] rajatbajpai0072:
Is there any demonstration how to.do this with our device.
[GT540 Optimus General] effortless.:
Not yet, also the lack of developers is a problem too, we really only have about 5-10 main devs here on XDA, probs more though on com.pl and 4pda.
[GT540 Optimus General] rajatbajpai0072:
I Hope developers work in this direction ...:(
[GT540 Optimus General] effortless.:
I'm not really desperate for it, but it would be a nice feature though.
[GT540 Optimus General] Danzano:

plese help my
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
If you expect people to realistically be able to assist you then you'll need to provide far more detail, what you're doing, what you've tried, any messages you're getting especially any errors, has it ever worked etc....

ie...have you plugged the cable in? see what I mean
[HTC Desire S] kartikk:
i think he is referring to the automatic syncing

check if under

settings>accounts & sync

background sync & auto sync are checked & your accounts have been added under that
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
That's my point though...does he mean Outlook or Google or HTC Sync installed on PC , there's so many options, and with so little information there is little we can do to assist.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jabrutal:
My friend is willing to trade his Captivate for my PS3 (don't judge me, I don't play it - ever), and I have a few questions before going through with it.

I am currently on T-Mobile, I've searched the forums and found that it is possible to unlock and use on T-Mo, but I've seen a lot of posts about how certain ways of unlocking has failed. What is the safest/easiest route to unlock this phone?

This is more of a carrier based question; I currently have a Sidekick 4G with unlimited data, after unlocking and switching SIM cards, will I need a different data plan for the Captivate or is my data plan consistent with the user and not the phone?

Finally - Do you think this is a fair trade? Original 60GB PS3 for a gently used Captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CremeFraiche:
galaxy_s unlock in the market by helroz seems to work with several phones ive tried. a captivate on T-mobile is limited to EDGE network only cuz the modem doesnt run on the same freq and if i were u id ask for a lil bit of extra cash on top for the ps3 buts thats just me
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpicaso:
If you don't mind slow data speeds due to different network bands, then sure, go for it. I believe the captivate will be limited to 2G speed.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compo_ab:
I have an AT&T Motorola Atrix. I live in Kuwait where my APN setting are as follows:

APN: hspps

Username: hspps

Password: hspps

Throughout all the previous version (1.2.6, 1.5.7, 1.8.3) I had to update the file:

/system/etc/ppp/peers/pppd-ril.options with my username and password (hspps).

I have tried to do this in 2.3.4 but to no avail. I have tried resetting the APN to default as some have suggested but it didn't work. I flashed the new radio (1.97 I believe) I re-flashed 2.3.4 again and again. I tried leaving the file mentioned above as is. I tried not creating an APN in the settings, I tried everything I could think of. I am now back to 1.8.3 but would love to go back to 2.3.4. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[Epic 4G General] bso44:
I'm trying to decide between the HTC Evo 3D and the Samsung Within which is Sprint's version of the Galaxy S2. I figure Epic users would have some good insight on how the Within might turn out.

The one big knock on the Galaxy S2 I keep hearing is Samsung's lack of support and updates when compared to HTC.

Is this something that has really been problematic for Epic owners and do you think it will be a big issue with the Within?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
There are a couple threads on this question, so a quick search will bring up several lengthy discussion to help with your choice

For the most part, I would say go with the S2

IMO, the hardware specs are a lot better, but the main reason, the one that trumps all others, at least at this time IMO, is the locked bootloader on the EVO 3D that blocks advanced modding of the phone

This is supposd to change, but until it does, you should stay away from the EVO 3D

Here are links to help
[Epic 4G General] dtugg:
The GS2 stomps all over the Evo 3D. I saw one at the Sprint store and I was not impressed.

[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Photon is a good choice too. I'd probably pick the GS2 tho. Better Processor, Better Screen, unlocked bootloader. No crappy 3d, which I know you don't have to use it but still. 3d is horrible. It reminds me of those 3d greeting cards with the weird plastic.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Me too, it hurt my eyes to look at the one in the store.

[Epic 4G General] dmarden:
There were some articles floating around today saying the US GS2 devices may not even come at this point or could be heavily delayed. Lack of carrier interest based on other competitive devices or something like that.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
I find that hard to believe, considering the S2 has been Samsung's best selling phone ever, so far.
[Epic 4G General] MikeyLee:
Hands down the Within will smash the Evo 3D
[Epic 4G General] dmarden:
Yeah, it seems crazy to me... I'll dig up links, running around the office at the moment.

It was something about when the GS1 came out there was significantly less competition on that level but now everyone and their Mom has that level of phone out or coming out and Samsung sucks for CDMA.

Obviously that's not my opinion and I am paraphrasing, lol.
[Epic 4G General] dmarden:
Here's one: http://androidcommunity.com/samsung...h-delay-down-to-carrier-disinterest-20110708/
[Epic 4G General] MikeyLee:
I'd buy the Within simply for the fact that it has either 16 or 32gb of built in storage plus the micro SD support of up to 32gb. 64 potential gigs of storage is pretty insane

Well, hopefully the whole, “negotiations with American telecom companies have dragged on” part won't drag on for too much longer. But I think if negotiations are still up in the air it doesn't look good for a summer release.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
Most reports I have seen, at least for the Within, still peg the release at late July.

Considering the S2 is set to be the most popular smart phone EVER, I find the rumor of phone company disinterest hard to buy into, rumor or no rumor.

But gotta admit, only time will tell.
[Epic 4G General] dmarden:
I certainly hope it's all BS. I am itching for something new.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Let's hope sprint doesn't gimp the s2 the way it did the epic just to make the evo's look good :/

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
To get access:

In terminal emulator

chmod 666 /system/build.prop

then you can open and edit it.

Afterwards:

chmod 644 /system/build.prop

to bring back the right permissions.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ratnakar_choudhary:
I tried chmod 777 /system/build.prop after su command.

but I am getting error as I am not allowed to change permission of the file.

Unable to chmod /system/build.prop.: Read-only file system

current ls -l command on the build.prop gives following result

-rw-rw-rw root shell 2733 2011-07-25 06:20 build.prop
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
Oh.... of course you have to re-mount the system-partition WRITABLE

And with "-rw-rw-rw root shell 2733 2011-07-25 06:20 build.prop" you have already write-access to the file itself. That means you don't need to CHMOD the file. Although afterwards you should put it to "644" with chmod for security reasons.

before chmod:

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl6 /system

and after chmod:

mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/stl6 /system

BTW: "stl6" STL6 and not st sixteen ;-)
