[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgymnop:
Has anybody problem with download speeds in SD? Until a few weeks ago I had download speeds of 2-3 mbps; now I am down to 0.2-0.3 the entire day. Upload speeds are still ok with 1mbps. The status says I am on HSPA but once in a while it switches to UMTS. The notification bar shows always an H+ not E.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeryu:
they are upgrading towers, or so i was told. ive been frustrated as hell too, especially cause im on the same tower for work / home (live less than a mile from work) and it's one of the slow ones. (100k down, 1 mb up) It was fine until about a week/2weeks or so ago when this started happening.. still hasnt been fixed in my area. (mission/fashion valley). around the la jolla, gaslamps/downtown area i havent had any issues, still get 3 mb / 1mb. fix it at&t!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I'm looking for a busted captivate for research. I belive we may be able to boot from a micro SD card.

I have to remove the processor and reverse engineer the board in order to find the power supply to the line called XOM5 in the processor manual. Once this line is found, it may be as simple as shorting, slicing the line, or popping a resistor off the board.

Repairing the phone afterwards would be beyond my capabilities.. I can't perform ball soldering. That takes some highly specialized tools. You would be doing a great service to everyone with a GalaxyS phone.

The phone does not need to work, and can be in horrible condition. It can be water damaged or physically broken. The only thing I need is the main board inside the phone.

I would like to learn more how a CB works and how to trace certain things on a board as well as other parts. Any books or reference guides besides schematics that could help me? PM me if you will. Infact anyone that knows anything could help me, please PM. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
A better place for a newbie to start would be circuit bending... hopping electricity from one point on a circuit board to another to alter the operating state. This would be a great place to start... http://hackaday.com/2011/01/11/intro-to-circuit-bending/

Once you get familiar with how things work on a circuit board, start examining the individual components in greater detail. There's some datasheets in here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1111866 which you could use to understand how a couple of the major players on our phone works. Speciffically, the USB controller (FSA9480) and the Processor (S5PC110). It really takes some additional education to start reading processor manuals....

You could always start with something simpler like Arduino platform. The Arduino platform allows you to create a basic program which runs on a microprocessor and take inputs and outputs from it. I like the Arduino because it's so darn quick to pick up.

here's some of the stuff I programmed on the Arduino

Contest entry http://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/f...utlers-hackaday-santa-pede-competition-entry/

Silly candle http://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/forum/blog/3/entry-27-digital-candle/

This one would be a great first project. http://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/forum/blog/3/entry-26-arduino-ef-meter/

If you really want to understand how a circuit board works, the best way is to go to school, or start playing with one... You could get started pretty cheap http://www.google.com/search?client...gc.r_pw.&fp=d4257c808144b93c&biw=1333&bih=651 or you can get a better one like in the Android Open Acessory Kit (it's actually an Arduino Mega with additional sensors) http://www.google.com/search?client...gc.r_pw.&fp=d4257c808144b93c&biw=1333&bih=651

So yeah... Learning electronics is reading, playing and doing.

Hey, thanks a lot. I'm sure I'll be able to get something out of it. Hopefully this will help with my job some too!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
Hey , when and If your able to boot from micro sd...will this method be like the nook color?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Basically. that's the idea. perform a slight hardware modification, then boot from SDCard from then on. Of course, first, I'll be focusing on just recovering a bricked phone by providing the phone a PBL/SBL/SBL2 on a MMC card.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crispy1805:
Any progress?

[HTC Sensation] manyee:
I had no problem pairing my Jawbone Prime bluetooth headset with my old Nokia 5800. All the functions worked perfectly.

Since I moved to HTC Sensation 4G, I noticed these problems:

1. Every time I disconnect & reconnect the BT, the volume goes to minimum. It doesn't keep the previous volume setting.

2. When I play a music/video, the sound goes through phone speaker right away. I couldn't find the setting to make it goes to my BT instead.

3. The voice dial feature from BT is no longer available. Is it because now they use Google voice search? This is inconvenient because before I can activate voice dial just by holding my Jawbone's volume button. Now I have to get my phone and unlock screen, input security code, press voice search..etc.

Is anyone having similar problems or other problems?

If yes, is there a way to fix these?

Thank you,
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
I have a Jawbone 2 so it's not quite the same I guess but I'll try to answer some of it...

1) I don't have this problem. keeps my volume setting.

2) same issue. I also have this problem with turn by turn navigation. it goes to my speaker on the phone even though I have the bluetooth setup.

I've read other people with different headsets working fine, though in nav, it cuts off first part of the direction... so I guess it's a blessing in disguise?

anyway, I'm beginning to think it's a Jawbone issue?

3) there is a work around this...

http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/HTC-SENSATION-4G/Bluetooh-Voice-Dialing-FIX/m-p/894213#M4273

only thing is you need to find the apk for choice dialer as it's not available for our phone on the market...

kind of a pain but it works.

anyway, hope that helps you out a little.
[HTC Sensation] manyee:
As the issue no.1, finally I got it fixed by disconnecting the Jawbone (unpair from phone) and pair it back. Apparently that solve the volume issue.

For No.2, I called Jawbone and they don't know what to do either. I'm going to try another BT from Jabra and see if the problem persist. If not that means something is wrong with Jawbone.

Thanks for the info for issue no.3

Yes, it seems I need to find out where that apk for Choice Dialer. It's not in android market yet.
[HTC Sensation] nugzo:
I just checked the specs of the jawbone prime at jawbones website. You need to have A2DP ( Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) feature on your earpiece in order to listen to music/tv/gps navigation (anything other than phone calls), and the prime does not have that feature. If you were getting media through your nokia wiith the prime then consider yourself lucky lol, you shouldn't have been able to. Just make sure your next BT has A2DP and you're all set. They do make apps that will send media through youre BT but the sound quality is pretty poor IMO. Search Bluetooth in the market if you want to try one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asmd6230:
hi guys,

im one of the many who is awaiting root.

was thinking that when i was using a hd2, android could be loaded off the sd card using haret. it could be run off nand as well, but the option of running it off the sd was available and worked quite well. i use to run it dual boot and used whichever one was more convenient for any given task in hand.

is it not possible to run a ROM off the sd card on a evo 4g?

regards,

asmd.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick N:
When you say dual boot you are referring to WM6 + Android, right? When I did the same on the Touch and the Touch Pro I believe the first step was to unlock the phone. Not a bad idea though, if they can run Android on the iPod Touch why not another Android phone? I have an idle 4GB Class 10 that would work great. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick N:
Update: Searched and found a thread in the Eris forum, seems like you have to have a custom recovery installed to do it, at least for this one:

Android multi-boot on Droid Eris
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
It certainly could be done if someone wanted to take the time to develop the right bootloader for it. But honestly, I don't think there's enough interest. At least nobody who has the skills to do it appears to have the interest.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattykinsx:
The epic has dual boot support makes you wonder why the Evo doesn't.

it would be great for people that want to be able to update their prl and data profile but use aosp since that functionality isn't in aosp roms yet
[HTC Sensation] jerrycutshaw:
Is anyone else having issues connecting to remembered WiFi access points? When I first got the Sensation I was able to connect to WiFi at home and work but after about 2 weeks I'm unable to connect at work. I type in the credentials (its PEAP/MSCHAP v2) and it simply goes into a mode of constantly searching. Previously I had a Defy and had ZERO issues staying connected. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
[HTC Sensation] ctdemonet:
I am having the same issues, although after browsing around threads I honestly think it's a Sensation problem

At home I have to be within 50 feet of my extended-range wireless N router or else I don't get any wifi connection. Forget about going upstairs or the basement. Even in the living room I have 1 bar of wifi max...

I am also having the unbelievable issue of completely losing wifi when turning the phone horizontal. I just have my fingers crossed hoping that when this phone gets S-off'ed, people are going to hack the **** out of all the problems and hit us with some incredible ROMs :D
[HTC Sensation] shabbytech:
I have a similar problem with PEAP/MSCHAP v2. I noticed that if i long-press my work ssid, input credentials for wifi settings and choose "connect now" it allways manages to connect.

So the phone won't autoconnect when I come to work as it shoud, but just loops over "connecting..." / "disconnected" until I perfom the above mentioned procedure.

My HTC Desire does not have the same issue.
[HTC Sensation] jerrycutshaw:
Yea some Sensations definitely are messed up WiFi-wise. I can't even force connect any longer. Very upsetting. Time for HTC to get off their rears and provide us a rootable phone!

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bd85:
should there be any difference compared to the the US with no TouchWiz?

I think flash works fine on the pages I tested. No problems with medium or high quality. But it works best on the YouTube desktop page where you can run 720p

And this is on a US wifi-only

Did you guys in Italy get the usb-adapter like we in sweden got?

If (And only if) you're using a Desire HD rom then just plug in your USB cable, choose "Internet Pass-through", let windows install the drivers (W7), enjoy internet on your device.

There has been a lot of misunderstandings when it comes to the actual shipping process and questions on how warranty exchanges are processed. I have seen some people not know what to do or scared to do it because they think its complicated.

I made this video to show the process of how to do it. Step by Step.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEdqSj1qUMs

and YES after 5yrs I quit T-Mobile and I am now back at AT&T. But instead of office or Solutions Specialist, I work Indirect Account Management. Atleast I have job security now. Enjoy.
[HTC Sensation] fryrice8850:
That is a very bold statement when you said that all T-Mobile store is not own by T-Mobile, i would like to see proof of this, not sure where you heard that? If you are referring to kiosk inside the mall then those are indirect dealers. Playground and retail are owned by T-Mobile where they have direct access to T-Mobile corporate email and home office internal sites which other indirect dealers do not.

I also see that you are working for At&t now are you a sales rep or CS when you were with T-Mobile? I know that At&t does not have anymore indirect stores as that is why you do not them as a kiosk at malls.

Not trying to stray away from your main topic of your video but good job on explaining the process.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
CSR at TMO told me all stores are 3rd party as well. Don't know how much confirmation that is, but it is consistent with his statement.
[HTC Sensation] secano:
T-Mobile stores are owned by other companies. They usually have a plaque on the store which states they are own by "etc etc company". You can also see that on the business cards that they have at the desks.
[HTC Sensation] Elvis_Freshly:
I just literally stopped working there...Most of the questions you asked were in my OP..

T-Mobile no longer has corporate owned stores. The formally corporate stores are now owned by a company that I am not allowed to name. and the others were sold off to investors. his was done under the radar in early 2010. Only direct way to buy is through calling Care or online. FACT!

The ones known as Playground and other stores will continue to operate under the same guise as before this happened so you would see no change but as stated this is a known fact. Im sorry you didnt know.

What was my job?? I wrote Android Support training for corporate training in our internal StreamLine systems and in person sometimes at some orientations at call centers and at indirect kiosks and mom & pop stores.

We do have Indirect doors at AT&T. I handle Prime Communications Southeast region.

I do not want this thread getting off topic.

I know what I said and I wouldnt make a statement like that without knowing what I am talking about.

This is just an educational thread for people who had questions about returns that I did to help out.
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
There are differences between "T-Mobile" and T-Mobile agents/limited.

but yes the RMA process is stupid easy. UPS usually knocks, honks the horn or tries to hide the package here in Vegas all depending on who leaves it. I have done RMA's where I sent back the phone they sent me because it had a dead pixel or faulty speaker... I haven't had any chargebacks because of this. There's no reason why I should have to use new defective phone until T-Mobile sends me another.

Hi all,

As probably most users of the SG2 I have a problem to make it a full day with my SG2 (which I love btw). I have been reading the forums (wifi sharing off etc.) but nothing really worked for me. Than I stumbled on a tip on a dutch forum and this really works !

All credits go to the author of the tip but i don;t know his name.

Install Titanium Backup (your device has to be rooted) and freeze als apps starting with SNS and all the social hub stuff from Samsung (which I don't use).

That's it, I have only 2 days of testing but after 11 hours my battery is still 50% full which is a huge difference with before.

Hope it works for all of you.

Cheers,

Hi All,

I have already posted this in other thread, but no response. As my issue is related to ad2p, I will allow myself to post it here as well ;)

After over a month my phone has some BSODs but only in one situation - when I start playing music via BT Headphones - SonyEricsson MW600. I have those headphones over 2 weeks now and the BSODs started 2 days ago. The strange thing is that when I connect the BT set and start music app it crashes after 5-10 minutes, but then when I remove the battery, start the phone and activate music player, everything is fine. The crash only happens when I disconnect both devices and reconnect them later or next day.

Did anyone of you had this kind of problem? Is there any solution for that?

I am running Stock ROM + Root + baseband 622. It also happened on the BB 405.

Does the BT turned on, but not connected with any device drain a lot of battery? I am thinking, maybe if I won't swithe the BT off in my Optimus, then the problem won't appear, but I need to test it. Or maybe there is any possibility to make the BT run in a background or something?

Thanks for the answers in advance.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
Same here with sony mw600. Gonna try later with another rom.
