[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
just flash cyanogenmod and be done with it. its a much much better user experience. i even have iphone owners going wow that phone is nice when it comes to responsiveness. i dare anyone to get a iphone owner to say that with stock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] heysharon:
I would do that, as soon as I get the updated baseband from the official update, which seems to fix the gps issues I'm having for some people.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cwsmall:
don't feel bad. i just updated my wife's g2 last night w/ a system update. She got 2.3.4. I thought the g2x which i have was a better phone my bad tmobile its only good enough for 2.3.3. you wonder why people are leaving.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
I second this. The latest nightly is very stable, feature rich, and boots in under 10 seconds. Its crazy!

G2X CM7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] heysharon:
I just flashed cm7, but I'm back to stock again waiting for the ota. It's incredibly stable compared to some of the nightlies I tried out a month or two ago, but I still have no gps lock. Pretty darn sure at this point its the baseband.

On a side note, has a2dp been fixed on cm? I forgot to check.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingDavid63:
im loving ota... i can do alll on ota that i can do on cm if you know what your doing... eblood 2.3.3

You're in denial.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
I pushing a sysyemui.apk file and seemed to have lost my status bar and notification bar. I tried pushing the backed up original file in and the same issue... No status/notification bar. Tried fix permissions to no avail. When I look at the file, it says SystemUI.apk (no install)

Any idea how to get it installed again?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
you cant install. Push, and reboot. that will fix the missing status bar
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
Thankks krylon, there's what I did, push the file, rebooted, but still no status bar, and when I look in /system/app the file says (no install) after it and it didn't show up in my app list either...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
its a non-installable apk.

If your status bar still didn't show up, then you did something wrong when you made edits to it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shotchacokov:
It was the one that was posted in the themes section that others had luck with... I couldn't get the stock one back either, so I just flashed back and did all the mods all over again. Simple enough. Thanks though.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
I got my Iconia yesterday and set it up. IT wouldn't connect to my wireless network via DHCP so I did what I do with every android device, I assigned it a static IP. Worked awesome!

This moring I downloaded the .13 OTA as I was prompted to, but after the install I can no longer connect to my wifi.

The killer part is that it will not let me connect or even modify the ip settings.

Here's the crazy part, I have rebooted it (even using Acer's clear userdata and cache trick) and the settings are still in there. They don't go away, I can't modify them and I can't connect.

Any ideas?
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Here's an idea....

Can I root it and then modify the file that holds the Static IP information? I assume it would be in /etc/ somewhere.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Strike that. I can't even install teh root APK because I have no file manager to naviagte to the APK file to root it. this sucks. I'm about 2 minutes away from returning this thing and getting an ASUS transformer.
[Acer Iconia A500] fenixjn:
Gingerroot? It is an app that you install. The best way is to allow unknown sources download the app connect to the computer, save in to the internal storage (/sdcard) and then use a file manager like astride or file manager hd to install the apk
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
I was actually able to get wireless access through my mifi and download Astro so I installed the root apk and successfully rooted it. Unfortunately now I have no idea where to change those IP settings.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Have you tried to delete the wireless connection (Wireless & Networks>Wi-Fi settings> Select Network and choose Forget network) and recreate it again?
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Yes, it retains the ip settings no matter what. I have tried 'forget' I have soft resetted, I have held down the left volume and hard resetted, I have even held own the right volume and done the switch thing to clear the user and data cache.

If anyone knows of any way to configure the IP other than in the stock menu I would appreciate it.

I can see the ip config, but I can not change it, nor save it, nor connect with it.
[Acer Iconia A500] OffcerClancy:
Have you tried the market app WiFi Static? I use it in my home LAN because I have several laptops and ip cans set up. It works great and is free.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Ok you need to go using root explorer or a file manager with root rights, to /data/misc/wifi and edit the wpa_supplicant.conf file, and delete the fixed ip connection. I would recommend you to do a backup of the file before editing it.

Best Regards.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Okay, that got me part way there. I purchased Root Explorer went to the directory and edited out that wireless access point from the wpa_supplicant.conf file. Unfortunately the static IP settings are still coming up the same way - greyed out and unusable. As a matter of fact they were the same settings that have been there since I first put them in.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
I tried wifi static but it doesn't seem to actually change the IP address.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
try then, to create a new connection for the fixed ip manually, use the Add Wi-FI network. I think you are seeing a ghost connection, like the ad-hoc connection of my phone, that appears but is not available.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Good thought, but the same settings keep coming up. I even tried renaming the router and then adding it but the same static IP settings came up.

I think my only solution is to find that file that stores the static IP settings and find out what is keeping it from connecting.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
ok, where I told you before wpa-supplicant.conf file was there is another file called something like ipconfig.txt , delete it and that's it. Must work , there are you fixed ip settings.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
Yes there is. I have deleted it and reset the system (reset button) unfortunately all my settings are still there.

I'm torn between being really pissed off at Acer and being fascinated by solving the problem.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
I don't know, maybe I jsut need to suck it up and figure out why DHCP won't work on any of my android devices, but the static PI thing has been working fine until now.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Wow that's funny because I did created a static ip network at my job, do the steps I told you, and the settings were gone. I was able to recreate the connection with a different ip without problems. I would recommend use mybackup root free application from the marker and do a full backup of your applications, but NOT the systems settings, do a full factory reset and restore the applications with mybackup root, so, you won't loose your apps. Something is wrong with your systems data.
[Acer Iconia A500] whiteston:
You are going to hate me for this, but I have done that a couple of times. It did erase everything (and I mean everything) except for those static IP settings.

But perhaps you have another rest that I have not tried. the two I have tried are:

1) hold down the left side volume rocker and hold down power.

2) hold down the right side rocker, hold down power and throw the screen lock switch

EDIT: I also tried a factory reset. No dice. Settings are still there.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
I'm talking about under Settings Privacy>Factory data reset. It erases all you data including the system settings. That's why you need a backup tool to restore your data.

So the steps are:

Install MyBackup Root from market.

Do a full application + application settings backup.The backup will be on you internal SD.

Copy everything in your internal SD to a computer.

Do the factory reset.

Do the setup again and download from market again mybackup root, after rooting you tablet.

Copy from the PC all you internal SD data to your tablet.

Restore your backup.

I will recommend before restoring your data to set the wi-fi connection and test it various times.

NB the reset you have done are only cache cleaning, all your applications and settings are kept. This one erases everything.
[Acer Iconia A500] kekinash:
Well is impossible that the tablet keeps the settings after a factory reset. It must delete every thing included you installed applications and revert the unit like a new one from the store, asking you to do the initial setup as if new. If this didn't happened to you, them the only explanation is that the eprom chip is damaged (the internal sd memory) and you must return the unit.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayRolla:
When I make a call I cant hear anything. They can hear me fine, speaker phone works fine, but the ear speaker nothing. Sometimes it will cut in and out. Ive flashed Alien, pieCrust and still same issue on both ROMS.

If I hit the phone and smack it around it doesnt cut in and out which would usually be a loose cable.

Has anyone had this issue? I hope its not failing. Let me know if anyone can help.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Try flashing a stock 2.3.4 and wiping all data. If that doesn't fix the problem, then unfortunately it's a hardware issue. :(

If you are under warranty they should replace the phone no probs. If you are not, you can try fixing it yourself as it's either a loose cable or a speaker failing (there should be replacement speakers for sale somewhere).

From what I heard, Atrix is very easy to disassemble, though I personally hope I won't have to do it. :o
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayRolla:
I work on cell phones, mp3 players, tvs, pc's, laptops, pretty much anything electronic for a living so not scared at all to open her up. But I just want to make sure its not software before I do anything.

When I flash a fresh rom it will work for a split second too maybe 10 seconds on the first call then cuts out and wont work at all afterwards, which is wierd. If it was hardware the fresh ROM should not do anything.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeet92:
Alright guys so the bottom 1/5 of my screen stopped responding so I want to return my phone to tmobile and have it replaced.

But ive run into an issue. Sometimes when I go into bootloader it clamis i have s-off other times it tells me its s-on. and when i try to flash older radio so i can revert to stock rom it just says "checking" the image and then throws me back into the bootloader. any ideas on how i can restore to stock? Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
Gonna need more info to troubleshoot. Lets start with how did you root the phone to start and how you unrooted. Are you doing anything different when it shows s-off than when it says s-on?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeet92:
well i rooted with temp visionary and then gfree. now the trouble is i cant get it back to stock radio. that way i can flash original rom and unroot. I try to flash a new radio and it goes from s-on to s-off and when i batterypull and turn it back on its perfectly fine as s-on
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
I think you have some terminology mixed up. Are you saying that you flashed an updated radio and then PD15IMG.zip update from hboot? Are you trying to flash the stock rom or are you trying to unroot?
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
I have an evo 3d and I want the burst camera on it. So I want to try and use the one on the sensation replace it with root explorer. anyone?
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
No one can go into root explorer and upload all the camera guts for me?
[HTC Sensation] DiZzle.:
where can i find it, and what is the file name

edit: can it be this one: system/app/htccamera.apk ?
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
Yes sir that is it.
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
And any other camera files in there
[HTC Sensation] DiZzle.:

Here you go

edit: i think it's just this one. If not let me know.
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
Thanks. I'll let you know
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
I did not work. It was stuck in 3d mode. Did have panorama and scene selection but when I capture photo it would crash. Thanks though. I'm guessing the burst shooting is somewhere else because it didn't give me the option to use it
[HTC Sensation] DiZzle.:
i found 4 folders in sys/

android_camera

android_camera_awb_cal

android_camera2

camera_led_status

maybe it's in there
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
Hell yea, can you give me all that?
[HTC Sensation] DiZzle.:
root explorer wont let me copy the files inside the folders. Is there another way to do this?
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
No, oh well
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Why don't you just download that rom and extract it yourself?
[HTC Sensation] navymoss35:
I will good idea

Will it ever be possible to port the MOTOBLUR from the DROID 3 to the ATRIX? it looks so much better
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] xploited:
I have personally answered this question twice before. Please, search before posting.

Short answer: It's possible, but noone is doing it at the moment, at least openly.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
I doubt you will ever see a port. 99% of people are trying to get rid of Blur.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jasonng86:
First of all, thank you the developers who bring about the GingerDX, one of the greatest ROMs for Mini Pro on this forum. It is fast and stable.

However, the full functions of Link2SD seem not to work in this ROM, if any steps I am missing.

1. After linking apps to SD, the apps cannot function at all and were forced to close, even Link2SD app itself.

2. Initially I could move the apps, dalvik-cache together with libraries to SD on ROMs such as Froyobread or Slade's CM6, but only apps can be moved to SD now using Link2SD on GingerDX.

Does anyone encounter the same problems and have subsequently solved them? In light of limited internal storage in our devices, being able to move as many as possible the app files will certainly save the day. Please provide kind assistance in this, efforts appreciated.

Also, apart from Link2SD, all custom ROMs based on the CMs come with the 'Install Location' for selection built-in the Settings. Does it work like Link2SD, since the number of internal storage did not seem to change, in spite of having set it to 'External'?

Thank you!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millertime1025:
Hi all having trouble installing the Sprint OTA. The file dl's prompts me to install I agree, it restarts and then I get a picture of the android guy with an exclamation point. I have to pull the battery to get past this part.

So I figured I would try manually installing it

Now I get the following error:

installing: /sdcard/GRJ90ODEXED.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

assert failed: geprop("ro.product.device") == "

crepo4g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo4g"

E:Error in /sdcard/GRJ90ODEXED.zip

(status 7)

Installation aborted.

Don't know what the deal is. I'm rooted with a stock rom with the netarchy kernel. I've tried restoring to the original kernel but that didn't allow me to install either. Got the same message as above.

You need to be unrooted, just an fyi you need to be unrooted with a STOCK recovery meaning not clockworkmod. And next time go to the development section before asking a question. We all do it
[Motorola Triumph] Lichborne:
Was just wondering if any could give me some feedback on their experiences with this phone vs other carriers or VM phone models. In the little over a week I've owned it, it's horrible compared to my current AT&T phone service.

I wanted to know if it was a quality issue on the phone, or VM's network.

I've notice in Los Angeles area I almost always have 1-2 bars, often have x1 instead of 3G. I also can be stopped at a major intersection in my car and the bar goes from full 3G to no bars and 1x, then spikes back up to full, then says no service. Even when I have a full bar and 3G I get like 150kpbs using speedtest.net sometimes.

Youtube video even in low quality stutters often, in HQ it's pointless.

I've also noticed the GPS lock times are sporadic but yet a utility shows the phone has a lock on 7+ satellites, but reports only about 100ft accuracy.

Sometimes when the screen comes on it flickers for a split second.

I was also told that the phone's radio only uses the 1900Mhz bands, does anyone know if we could get 800Mhz support once we get ROM development for it?

Has anyone noticed similar issues?

Best Buy just got 8 more in stock I'm going to swap it, but wanted to have some reference before the 30 days are up. No stores have a activated VM phone that I can compare service to.

I really want to update my phone and if I can save my money from AT&T. But need something at least somewhat reliable and consistent.

Thanks,

-Lich
[Motorola Triumph] gerbetta33:
Hey man, I'm in southern Indiana, so I can't really say much about your service area, but mine is great. usually 3/4 bars, with 3g speeds faster than my wifi. If your device is wonky like that, where it keeps jumping from no bars to full bars, then maybe its something with the phone itself. as far as 1x data, that's the network. I'm using an optimus v, rooted running cyanogenmod7, and I have excellent battery life and performance, so if you are going to switch to a different VM phone, I recommend that.
[Motorola Triumph] allenk09:
I have had absolutely no problems with this phone that aren't software related. There are quite a few Lemons out there and it seems only people on these forums are getting lemons!

I have software version 039 (Not sure that matters)

My signal strength sitting right here in my house is -64dBm with no tower in sight, full bars. I traveled from Upstate NY to Tucson, AZ on multiple flights with multiple layovers last week with this phone and I had absolutely no problems including getting in flight WiFi.

My Triumph is everything I could've hoped for after selling my iPhone 3GS to get the Triumph.

The screen is large and beautiful with absolutely amazing colors. The screen is responsive (after taking the thick 2nd screen protector off) and nearly as good as the iPhone's screen responsiveness. Phone feels good in my hand with a nice coating on the outside. The camera is absolutely amazing. I have taken beginner SLR quality photos with it, and when focusing you can even get quite a bit of bokeh added. The 720p camera is great, though it's jumpy in low light and I really don't like that it doesn't have video focusing. Battery life will take me through an entire day of normal use.

Any problems I have had, are software related and should be able to be easily fixed. GPS Locks beautifully to 3ft accuracy in under 30 seconds with the GPS Test app, but this cannot be said for Google Maps or Navigation. I think Google has a driver problem in their software which should be easily fixed with a new update to the Maps application. The Triumph does become unresponsive for a few seconds at times, but it's no big deal to me, again that should just be a software problem.

One other major problem I have that I KNOW is software related is that the headphone volume is WAY too low. If you make a phone call while listening to music, the volume will jump up to a normal level. Without making a phone call I have to turn my cars radio up to about 8/10 just to be at a normal level, if I make a phone call I can leave it on about 3/10.

For $300 and $25/month, you cannot beat this phone in any way.

On mt phone I can see little horizontal lines.does any one else see them?
[Motorola Triumph] Fodoom:
My experience:

WiFi takes a while to turn on when I wake the phone. Streaming video is a bit choppy, and downloading the videos only reduces the choppiness by a little bit. I dont have the flickering issue, and to the best of my knowledge, gps works well. Keeps up with games like my bro's Droid X. Snappier than my friends Samsung Galaxy S. Sometimes the soft buttons require a second press to initiate. Overall I'm happy with it, but will be better when CM is installed.
[Motorola Triumph] Intercepter:
My experience is that gps works just fine the phone is fast, the signal in seattle area is only good downtown anywhere els and it sucks. I searched for towers in my area and sprint has very few towers I get 1 maybe 2 bars max signal at home mostly 0 bars but can still make calls.

wifi works great and when I have a good signal 3g works great but the lack of signal in most places is what sucks my battery down.

Sprint just needs to improve its coverage
[Motorola Triumph] ceejay83:
bugs i've come across :

widgets resize after holding your phone in landscape mode

wifi can't connect to a router and will keep re-trying, causing the phone to reboot

random reboots

back button will stop working, while other buttons work

light leakage between soft buttons and case

i went from 038 to 039 software and haven't noticed anything yet. i always had a good gps lock on 038 but had horrible reception, 039 doesn't seem to improve that
[Motorola Triumph] gravityone:
Faster then my daughters galaxy s , 038,sometimes the back button takes a few times to act like a back button, but over all I'm very happy with it.

[Motorola Triumph] zjs32:
I came from the Intercept, and so far the Triumph is heads and shoulders above that even though it has a few minor bugs. Most of the stuff works great, my gps is fine, my signal is actually better than my Intercept, and I don't have any screen flickering.

I do have a small amount of light leakage (not a big deal to me) and sometimes my widgets resize, but all in all it's been great for me.
[Motorola Triumph] k40t1c:
I came from using the Droid X and let me tell you that this phone reminds me of it so much. The only thing that i dobt like is that the battery is a little lacking compared to the X. An im just waiting for a custom rom to come out for this. I was running liberty 2.0.1 on the x and i would love to see something similar.
