[myTouch 3G Slide General] VisualOddity:
So, I've looked, yet have been unable to answer this. Please help asap...

I just purchased a user MT3g Slide (red), and it is currently NOT rooted and on 2.1-Update1. I have had many Android phones, all rooted, including a MT3G non-slide, but on this one I don't care about root. I have an Asus Transformer, and all I need from this phone is wifi tether for the tablet.

So, can I wifi tether without root, and if so, how?

If not, how should I go about rooting AND getting tether? Rooting on this phone looks like a pain in the a**, so I'd like to avoid it... :hs:

Thanks :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] txdeathray:
if you don't want to root and have wifi tether, get the official froyo update from htc, that will get you the wifi tether.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] VisualOddity:
Just did it, thanks! Any good widgets you might know of to switch it on/off without going through the settings menu? :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] txdeathray:
you might want to try widgetsoid 2.x, it allows you to tag a whole bunch of widgets on one bar, and also put a shortcut of an app to the widget. the wifi tethering widget won't work (not sure why, but tried it before), so you can link a shortcut of the wifi tethering app and gain access to that.

or just put a shortcut of the app on your screen =P
[myTouch 3G Slide General] VisualOddity:
Awesome, thanks :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] poormanq45:
I'm confused. You just switched to an AOSP rom yet you refuse to root?

Do you realize that that would void any warranty you possibly had?

Also, root and run the thing at 800mhz. My phone is smoother then most stock 1ghz phones.

[Omnia 7 General] joeltimothyoh:
Hey guys, i did a test with two omnia 7s and this is what i got

I got an omnia last december (left) and another a month after (right).

There is a blue tint on the left omnia's screen. the screen actually looks duller than the other. It's less bright and has slight colour differences.

I'd like to note that omnia on the left had a blue tint with the screen protector on, and it appears to be the same even after i removed the screen protector (which is what you see in the pictures)

Maybe you guys with omnia want to tell us how your omnia's display looks from an angle then we can see if this blue tint issue is truly normal or not :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nazcalito:
I have both a Vibrant and a Galaxy S 4g. The Vibrant had a broken screen and I got the 4g while waiting for parts.

On the Vibrant, when I connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable, Windows shows two external drives, the internal SD card and the external SD card. On the 4g, Windows only displays the contents of the internal SD card. I used the same external SD card on both phones.

I have tried reformatting the external SD card but it still does not show up in Windows Explorer for the 4g phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] :
the sgs4g will only display 1 drive and that should be the ext sd card it does not display internal.

vibrant shows two because the internal is 16gb and it show external cuz its an ext sd card
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nazcalito:
The one it displays looks like the internal sd card, because the external card just had music and some backup files on it. The phone seemed to be seeing the external card though, because all of the music was there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
you only the external memory on the sgs4g. all of your music is stored on your sd card, which is why you can see it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tazmeister:
I definitely like my transformer, but in another sense it is a let down as well. (but only in the same way that all tablets ares) I really like having the clamshell option with the keyboard, plus the extra battery life

Then there is decently size display and generally android is a good thing.

But....

1) why just 1 microsd slot? why not 2? 3? and so on.... I have a few smaller spare micro-sd cards now, but can't use them along with the main one

2) (dupe of question in accessories) why isn't the hardware keyboard a blue tooth/wireless keyboard when it's not connected or at least not connectable via a long thin cable?

3) android tablet gripe - can't get rid of the status bar/button row ever it seems, so just how much display landscape is lost? 1280x800 Not! 1280x760ish or 1240x800ish...

4) why can't we display apps that need only a fraction of the full size of the screen in some sort of small window or even widget window? look at some of the various remote control apps for example, they end up using the whole screen just to display a few buttons. talk about a waste

I like the device, but I can't help but feel that the industry has been creatively stagnant for decades now...

Moore's law doesn't seem to apply to improvements in form and usability.

Just consider the form of a laptop... when was the last time any serious improvement was actually made to the overall form which isn't really all that great if you look at all the people that sit hunched over while using one sitting on their lap or with their arms are weird angles when using one while at a desk or table.

The transformer in that sense is finally an improvement to the laptop form factor, but it was done it seems by accident. It's like a laptop that can have the display separated from it's base so you can position the screen a reasonable height or whatever...... EXCEPT the keyboard isn't wireless and doesn't have any sort of wired connector. *sigh*

So are there any other simple things that seem like they should have been included?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
1. Name another tablet that has 2 microSD slots. Oh wait, that's the Transformer. Get the dock and you have another SD slot.

2. Because the docking keyboard includes extra battery life, USB etc. Unless you can charge your Transformer wirelessly using the dock. Not even going to go there.

3. It has nothing to do with this Tablet. It's Honeycomb in general. I agree with you on this and at times I want it gone like for videos.

4. Again, that's Honeycomb. It's a new OS and it's pretty good for a first catch at it.

Looking for some help with the Cisco Anyconnect Client…

With TW the Client now loads and runs on the 10.1.

The issues are I can’t get the client to see the certificates. I installed the certificates through the Settings Location and Security tab.

According to the guide I should be able to see and select the certificates on the Anyconnect setup screen. I don’t see any certificates.

Does anyone have an idea on how to install the certificates so the client will recognize them?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Long John Silver:
Are you using an european 3G model?

Is the Anyconnect for rooted devices or just the samsung standard?

I installed the Anyconnect rooted version and I get the same screenshot. For my corporate network the certificate must be "automatic" but then I don't see any way to set the usergroup and password...

Cisco states that a tun.ko module is required
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] ccapasso:
Silly question, but just to be sure, did you purchase and install the AnyConnect Mobile license on your ASA? You must have that for this to work.

Yesterday I got same problem.

I just found this info in CISCO support:

"Rooting your device could void your device warranty. We do not support rooted devices, nor do we provide instructions to root your device. If you choose to root your device, you do so at your own risk.

The AnyConnect client download for Samsung does not work on rooted devices; you must use the rooted version of AnyConnect on rooted devices."

So as I understand if I rooted my stock GT then "Samsung (< SEP2011) AnyConnect" wount even install. and i need to use "Rooted AnyConnect" version...

AND ...

"Both a tun.ko module and IP tables are required. AnyConnect displays an error message informing you about what is missing when you attempt to establish a VPN. If the tun.ko module is missing, obtain or build it for your corresponding device kernel and place it in the /data/local/kernel_modules/ directory."

[Motorola Droid 3] wattnxt:
Like many others, my phone has a tendency to drop 3g unless I enable Data Roaming. This has been the case with My D1 with 2.3.3.

Now that I have the Droid 3, I have the same thing. No surprise there.

HOWEVER, when I enable Data roaming on my D3 and then go into an area where the phone drops to 1x then no data, I get a notification that Data connectivity has been lost because Data Roaming is Disabled.

If I pull down the notification bar, it says I can select the bar to go to the setting. I do. Sure enough, the Data Roaming Enable box is Unchecked.

I check the box. Go to my home screen, and the notification will reappear. I can do this all day.

If I go to my home screen, ignore the notification and go to settings, battery & data manager, then data delivery, the setting is unchecked....BUT....If I access the menu this way; the setting will be retained until the phone is brought to an area where data signal does the 3g to 1x to no signal thing. Then it starts all over again.

Any suggestions? Anyone else getting this? I received my D3 over a week ago, and finally exchanged the phone for another one. That phone lagged and had random freeze issues. This phone has none of those issues, but still has the Data Roaming Enable setting not retained problem.

Wasn't this an issue with CM7 at one point? The d3 claims to be running 2.3.4, but it is hard to tell with all the Motoskin draped over it.

I have also noticed that (in my area) if I have data roaming enabled, my battery life is much improved. With it off, my battery drops like a rock.

I have contacted Moto about the issue and reported the bug; but all I am getting is the "we'll look into it" brief email. Like I'm some kind of first-time Android user who doesn't know how to use my phone.

Please tell me someone out there is having this too, or that there is a patch that Moto just hasn't released yet....

Thanks in advance everyone.
[Motorola Droid 3] wattnxt:
UPDATE:

2nd phone, all data connection is lost. No phone, 1x or 3g. Phone is awake, and battery settings are set to Performance (No Battery Savings).

Data manager is disabled (no stoppage of data)

When going into an area where I ALWAYS had "EXTENDED NETWORK" data available at 1x speeds prior to this phone, the phone says no data connection.

I look and my Data Roaming Enabled checkbox has been unchecked.

I check the box, click OK to agree that I may incur Roaming charges. The phone will reconnect to data at 1x or 3g depending on where I am.

If I look at the phone 5 minutes later, the checkbox is Unchecked again for allow data roaming. Sometimes less.

This only happens after the phone goes into a weak coverage area.

I have tried rebooting the phone. The setting stays retained after reboot, but is lost as soon as I go into poor coverage.

I have tried factory reset. Setting stays until I reach a poor coverage area.

Already exchanged for another phone. Same issue.

Changed phone from Global to CDMA mode and network to automatic. Setting still does not hold.

It is most strange though, that it doesn't happen until after my home network is lost. The setting will hold until then.

Without that setting checked, I cannot connect to my "Extended Network", which in my area is a no-cost option. I keep checking the box, only I can't get the setting to stick when I go to a weak coverage area.

The coverage area should not make changes to the retention of allowing of data roaming checkbox. Something is improperly referenced in the software.

Motorola's out-of-country sweat-shop customer-no-service department wants me to ship my 2nd brand new phone to them (5-7 days for them to process and receive it+whatever it takes to ship to them) and take between 14-21 days to "repair" the phone, and then take another 5-7 days to package, ship and return to me (all at my expense). Why am I sending a new phone that is defective "out of the box" to be repaired??

So I'm supposed to go without my phone for 5 WEEKS because they have a software problem??? It can be duplicated every time, and on more than one phone. They have the old one. Fix that and send out the update please!!

Am I the only one that has had this issue? Seriously, no one else?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is frustrating as heck. I love the phone, but this is ridiculous and makes it rather un-usable depending on where I am. I NEVER had this with my D1! Moto, what happened?

Thanks everyone. +1 if you've had the issue please.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dukeuni:
Same Problem

I also have this same problem.

After reading other forums, I thought it may just be the Droid 3 or a Motorola problem. I ended-up turning back in my Droid 3 after Motorola said it was a Verizon problem (which really is not the case). Now, after reading your thread, it makes me wonder if this is a Android OS issue.

I really hope it is not a OS issue, I have wanting an Android phone for a long time.

At my house it always kicks off the data roaming option. I really have no idea what is causing it.

Just wanted to post so that you know your not the only one!
[Motorola Droid 3] wattnxt:
Thank you.

I have run a logcat and have traced the problem to Motorola's battery and data manager service. It is not the OS itself, from what I can see.

It seems that under these particular conditions, the battery and data manager service crashes. Though this should not be a major problem in and of itself, though still not right and needs fixing there too. The service promptly restarts and then loads the settings that were enabled at the time of the crash from a secure data folder. (Or it's supposed to)

The problem comes into play when these settings are loaded. Enable Data Roaming is "loaded" as No(off) any time the service loads these values after a crash of the Battery and Data Manager service.

Unfortunately, as usual, Motorola is dragging their feet at releasing the source code for the Droid 3. This may or may not help the issue, as the Battery and Data Manager service that crashes is a part of Motoblur. Meaning, they aren't going to be forthcoming with the information.

They also are being a typical OEM in their refusal to believe that they could have made a mistake when programming and that they have something to fix.

My Droid 1 has run 2.3.3, 2.3.4, and 2.3.5 and this has NEVER been an issue keeping the setting retained. This is not an issue on our INC2, which is running 2.3.4 in all the same areas that cause my D3 phone to lose the setting. I am also running an Eris with 2.3.5 and it does not have the issue. This is strictly with the D3 from what I have seen.

It's funny how Moto is blaming Verizon for an issue they say doesn't exist. If there isn't a problem, how can that be the network's fault??? The network doesn't change that setting in the phone. Software changes it. In this case, poorly written software added onto the Android OS. Too bad, the OS works fine until Moto putzed with it (Blur).

The OS is not the issue here, it seems the D3 software has two problems:

1 the Battery and Data Manager service shouldn't crash like that.

2 it should return the proper settings if it does.

If I had the chance to do it all over again (knowing what I know now), I would have said send me an INC2 as a replacement. I honestly figured it was a phone hardware problem and the new phone (under warranty) would fix it.

Honestly, I am completely disappointed with this device. That may change when root is obtained and I can get rid of the poorly written trashware that seems to plague this phone. But right now I'm most disgusted with the fact that it doesn't work right and Motorola couldn't care less, even though it's their sofware that is the problem.

I have pruchased my last Motorola product, and am not holding my breath that Motorola will either care or fix their problem. I am certain the future rooted ROMs will be able to transform this lagtastic, glitch-ridden, battery pig into the elegant piece of hardware it has the potential of becoming.

Sorry Moto, sometimes the truth hurts.

Thanks for the support that it isn't only my phone or service area.

Others please +1 as you experience it. The issue is logcat documented and now confirmed on at least 4 devices.
