Hi!

Im a New owner of Galaxy S2. Buy used from a friend. SGS2 have upgraded with KE7, KF3, Root@Dell 101 #2.

The "problem" are: Very low reception of w-lan. I have also a HTC HD2, there HTC have full signal, the SGS2 only 20% signal on my w-lan

Are there something to do? :confused:
[Atrix 4G General] OldOneEye:
I use Setting Profiles (awesome app for automating your phone) It knows if I am at home, at work, in my truck, or on my motorcycle, it can launch(or shut down) applications, like music or navigation.

I have not been able to find an app that will just record a gps stream or track waypoint list. GPS Essentials comes close but the api? or list of start command will not allow the track function to begin

Maybe there is an app that just detect if the gps is activated it will start recording location/speed

Have you tried tasker? It works wonders for these issues. Trigger by cell tower uses less battery. But I'm going to guess you have probably heard about tasker already. Give it another shot if so.

Hi,

I bought Samsung Galaxy I9003, I am not able to play flv files using default video player also from my facebook application, even though i have updated my adobe flash player using android market to latest version 10.3.185.25.

So some one advice me how to play flv files in my Galaxy SL I9003.

Thanks,

Gopal
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Stock ROM contains no codec for flv, Also flash is for flash content, FLV requires a separate codec. Download a 3rd party app like MoboPlayer.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latoso:
I did called them that is how I foud out, that somebody used her rebate but I'm getting stuck at the cancellation department. I called at least six times, they keep insisting we renew our contracts, and to cancel the service either return the phones or pay 200 fee per line. How I'm gonna return phones I don't have. Sprint must have a fraud department wich regular customers service refuses to give me number....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Can't you just call and ask to know whether the phones were activated and what numbers they carry?

How did they get your discounts in the first place?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadden:
if you find out their numbers use trapcall.com ok :)

I called again, and they told me it was purchased on June 24 third party company call imobile.

I'm going to that store see what I can do I call the police or any recommendations????l
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latoso:
I did I ask the esn number and who has them now. They can't tell because once they phones left my account they can't track who has them, wich I think is BS.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sniperkill:
Perhaps a Sprint Rep made a mistake. Meaning, when whoever bought the 3 phones, Sprint used your girls upgrade instead of using the other parties upgrade...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] latoso:
It was no mistake, I had a nice Sprint service rep, she told to go to every imobile store to find out who did it, becuase Sprint had no memos, no notes, esn were block she told me it was fraud. Long story short I found the store to my surprise it 3 evos 3d that were purchased. I call back Sprint and reset my account, and Sprint flag the store for fraud and got the esn numbers to track the phones. Thank god is over

I have tried searching and searching but i cant find any solutions to the problems in my Samsung Galaxy S2.

1. Data connection doesnt not turn on automatically when i leave my wifi area.

2. BBC iplayer does not play anything for me both in the app and in browser. i have latest flash and adobe air installed.

Thank you

Zabih
[Galaxy S II General] mca1490:
there are many posts about this... Use search tool , Im not from UK so I dont use bbc i player , but I fixed my data problem updating to KF3 via kies.

Hope you fix it!
[Galaxy S II General] zabihjan:
i have used the search tool here nothing specific to my problem.

my data is always on. when i turn on wifi, wifi connects very quickly and when i leave my wifi area, theorotically my data network should take over from wifi but it doesnt happen.

i never had any issue with any other android phones i have owned before such as HTC hero, Xperia X10.

i connected my phone to kies today, it could not detetc it so i turned off usb debugging then i could connect to kies. i checked for update there is no update available. i think i have to flash a different rom using ODIN.
[Galaxy S II General] mca1490:
hmm ok , yes , I would recommend flashing other rom , but first give it a try to the newest stock rom , my thoughts..!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magalz:
Hi,

First of all o tried to serch something like that all day and didn't found, so, if anyone knows a topic about it with anwsers or some website, pls post it and close the topic.

So, yesterday i took my x10 with 67% battery and connected to the PC to charge and gone to sleep. I use a desktop and it was on all the time. But like 5 hours later, my phone was powered off and completely drained. It only flashed the red light 3 times when i tried to power up. So i connected again to the same computer without touching the pc. It started to blink the flash light for a while, then the light turned green. I waited a little and tried to turn it on. Again, it blinked 3 times and nothing. Connected again and some time later, the charging battery icon appeared, and it started to charge again, and i powered it on normally, and my battery was at 1%.

Even it got no recharge at all, with 67% on standby, my phone lasts almost 3 days, so only 2 options left: The pc is draining it, what i think its nonsense, since it never drain battery from nothing i connect, or theres a bug on the mod, or its a problem on the phone itself.

It's not the first time it happens, but never happen when i used the Miui mod or stock mod. Happen about 5 times already, only on cm mod.

What i already did:

- Reseted the battery stats when it was 100%, drained it until it turned off alone, charged again.

No more ideas.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cerabreu:
I noticed something like that too few days ago..

Usually, when I want to charge it from a computer, I turn all the radio (wifi, 3G, sync, etc..) and let the phone charge and its working fine.

Don't know the reason though. :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahkam:
When your computer goes into sleep mode the phone doesnt charge anymore but its not supposed to eat 67% of battery neither ....

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saltorio:
I was using Wolfbreak's ROM (v007) up until two days ago, and one of my biggest complaints was poor battery performance. Not sure if it's the ROM or the baseband (52), but when I was at work my battery would drain stupid-fast (100% to dead in 5-6 hours). Part of that I think was that I get poor reception in my office (typically around 99 dBa), but the battery didn't drain that poorly using the old FreeX10 ROM.

I'm now running Jerpelea's CM7.0.3, but still on BB52. So far battery use seems about the same as with Wolfbreak's, but I'm still trying to optimize my battery stats.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pissat4motion:
Ive used the last few versions of trips roms and on v008 now..battery drain is the only issue ive pretty consistently had with them. Im on bb54..

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheChillburger:
Hey guys, I got my Fascinate less that a week ago (my first Android phone) and I've been taking a crack at doing some flashing. I tried the rooting method on the Cyanogenmod wiki to no avail (would not do the proper cwn recovery boot) and eventually went to the Odin method. The Odin method succeeded in giving me a proper root as I was able to install Miui but it would mess up whenever I tried Cyanogenmod7. Today, I ended up flashing back to stock Froyo due to terrible battery life I was getting in Miui, so I'm really kind of frustrated with all this running in circles. Is there a definitely method for flashing on a EB01/EB04 Fascinate that would leave me able to install Cyanogenmod7?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] princeendo:
In jt's CM7 thread there is a CWM attached at the bottom which will let you install CM7 without any hassle. (At least, it did for me when I was getting errors installing.)

I used the Odin version, but I imagine either would work. Once you load that, you should be able to flash CM7. I believe the ROM is pre-rooted, as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bvone21:
There should be a [NOOB] tag for forum posts...

I'm a long time windows mobile user, rather than jump into windows phone I'm making the switch to Android.

I bought my captivate on eBay, it shipped unlocked with a clean gingerbread rom. Not sure which. After reading through a number of threads and articles I was able to:

Setup ADB - Win7 x64

ADB to download mode, Odin 1-click back to stock

Flash CWM, again via ADB to recovery, and then flash the latest MIUI

3br does not seem to be working for me. At first I was able to get to recovery with Vol up + Home + plug into USB. I can no longer get to recovery or download mode at all. MIUI, has the reboot to Download/Recovery mode options, but neither work and just boot back to the OS. When plugged into my computer, the device drivers are not recognized. So it no longer works with ADB. I haven't been able to get the drivers re-installed. When I attempt to ADB, it says "Error: No device connected" (or along that wording). I tried installing the USB drivers straight from Samsung and the galaxy S x64 drivers posted online. Not having any luck.

I can't seem to find my answer searching the threads and web...maybe I'm not using the right terms (I avoided making a new post as long as I could). Everything else works fine otherwise, the phone isn't bricked...but where's the recovery? Any ideas?

I'm assuming if I can get into download mode, then I can Odin-1-click to stock and everything is peachy again? I'm not quite understanding the 3BR fix guides...I thought since I could get to recovery with other methods when I got the phone, that I was fine, but maybe that's my problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
The combo is all 3 buttons for recovery and both volumes and plug in a usb fire download. Sometimes odin one click will disable the combo.

As for adb not working miui is an aosp (android open source project) build not based on samsung firmware so you need the google drivers installed for it to work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bvone21:
It must have gotten disabled somehow then...

By Google drivers, you mean the USB package you can select from the Android SDK Manager? I didn't mention this but I think I tried those as well. But I'll remove everything I've installed, restart and try re-installing fresh to double-check.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bvone21:
Thanks for the suggestion, that worked with the drivers from the sdk. So if I end up flashing a touchwiz based rom, will I have to go back to the samsung drivers?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
That's correct

[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Hello,

It's best to attempt to always put communication through the existing threads rather than as PM's that way all the users get to see it, you should really also have EDITED your earlier thread to attach this picture, you could have done that by editing the first post, selecting the Go Advanced editing option and then adding the attachment, rather than starting another identical thread. That way all responses from all users will remain in one place and the forum won't be polluted with threads.

Unfortunately, I can't help you in with this particular problem as I don't actually use HTC_Sync myself and never have done, as I sync my devices calendar & contacts with Google (in the cloud).

But I'm sure other users will be able, so add more details to your existing thread by EDITing post one above and explaining whether you have ever got HTC Sync to work and and when it stopped, did it error and give you any messages? put as much information as possible....

Good luck.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidJoe:
Hi,

Anyone know if/where I could find a decent copy of Monopoly Classic (I don't want Here & Now), The Game Of Life, and/or Clue that works on the Xoom?

visiting http://m.eamobile.com, none of them are available on my Xoom.

The selection varies when I use my Thunderbolt, X, or Incredible, but I'm not sure if they'll work on the Xoom... I've had some issue with NFS Shift that I purchased working on the one device, but not the other..
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flippingout:

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rte84:
I purchase life last night on ea mobile website for 3 dollars. its the only game they have available for the xoom that I know of. On their website they do talk about scrabble and other games being available for android very soon.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidJoe:
I did hit EAMOBILE.COM from my Xoom's browser and purchased/downloaded "The Game of Life"...

While EA's web site shows it as "The Game of Life HD" the app and its icon are not labeled as such on the XOOM.

And I don't see a way to re-download, or get an update, should the need arise. :(

Under HELP -> about (while in the game) it does give a version number, and email address for customer service... I might end up emailing them, asking about updates, and re-downloading if needed.

For now, I have the install APK backed up to two of my PC's, and its on the SD card in my Xoom...

The FREE Scrabble version that EA released is not directly supported on the XOOM (not found searching AndroidMarket from the XOOM, and hitting http://market.android.com from PC shows its not compatible with XOOM so wont let me install it.). So I tried it on my Thunderbolt. It is disappointing that this new Free version doesn't support "local" play only... or play against the "computer." I really want that ability. I haven't tried taking the APK from the TB to the Xoom yet. But this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1164519 doesn't look too promising.

flippingout, thanks for the suggestion of the SNES version and emulator. Unfortunately, they just don't cut it. Hopefully, EA will put out a XOOM compatible version of Monopoly Classic soon.

Spark is correct...hack kit does add a clockwork recovery. Start adb and type adb reboot recovery to boot into it. Or, install Droid explorer on your pc and click tools, install custom ROM.

I used Bubby's simple root program. It's weird tho because I first used it on another inspire and I was able to root it and flash it to another ROM. The second time I rooted on a different inspire(the one with the T-mobile) I can't flash it to a different ROM.

I've confirmed with root checker that the phone is rooted and I was thinking if it's advisable if I should root it again.

One more thing when I tried to go into boot mode and there was an orange blinking light. I just took out the battery and got it working again. What I heard is that it could be a sign of semi-bricking the phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] wvmedic:
Might be best to flash back to stock using the RUU in Bubby's one click, however, you may lose the ability to use T-mobile. I'll think about it after I get some sleep.
