The GPS has always been crap on my Omnia 7 regardless of firmware.

Very rarely gets my location closer than 15m. My old HTC Touch HD's GPS was much better
[Omnia 7 General] Nakazul:
Im satisfied with the GPS as it where. It never faild me. But now! Its terrible
[Omnia 7 General] OndraSter:
You managed to flash the ENGINEER ROM onto your phone?
[Omnia 7 General] Nakazul:
Nope, like i said above. Samsung did it for me. Dont like flashing my device any longer.

This warning is intended to thous who finally can get there hands on this firmware and curious to install it. Anything new that comes out everybody wants to try right? So, its a warning, maybe will work for sombody, but currently people in Sweden is dropping in reporting these problems in a steady pace. Where not that many that still left, but some peeps like me dream and hope, and are trying to stay to finally get the phone we bought initally.

Oh gotcha, now I understand the beginning, thanks :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
I just purchased a SG SII here in the US and later found out it is a UK phone (the sales rep said it was a US model)

anyway, the phone works great EXCEPT it will not log onto T-Mobiles 3G network. All I get is EDGE which is terrible.

How can I get it to go to 3G?

Spoke with T-Mobile, even got a new sim card. No help

Spoke wth Samsung US - they tried, could not help and then said to contact the UK.

Called Samsung UK and they said it should work, if not, bring it back as it is broken!

anyway, is there some sort of settings that I can change to make it work in the US.

I also need it to work in Brazil as I will be going there and will be using the Brazilian Tim network and installing their sim card.

thank you for your assistance in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
The phone is suppose to be:

HSPA+ 21Mbps/ HSUPA 5.76Mbps

EDGE/ GPRS Class 12

Quad band GSM 850/900/1800/1900

Quad band UMTS 850/900/1900/2100

Did you limit the phone to only work with 2G in the settings?

Check Wireless Network settings.

Much more better would be goto Settings->About phone, tell us what Baseband, and Kernel, and ROM version you are using.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fizzerr:
Reboot phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
You can't, it doesnt work on tmobiles aws frequency.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Illicit Hero:
Exactly, that phone will never work on T-Mobile USA 3G network, refund it or switch to AT&T. Makes you wish someone would regulate mobile networks here.

Edit: SGS2 should work fine on TIM Brazil.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
you guys are absolutely certain that this phone will not work on T-Mobile?

what about certainty that it will work on Tim? I live in Brazil and defintely need it to work there.

Here, in the US, when I return next year, I can alway switch over to AT+T.

I need to be certain because if I get to brazil and it does not work, I am screwed because then it is almost impossible to get anything done to it.

BTW- they have been saying that t-mobile will have this same phone in a few months. How will that one be able to work? will it be possible to flash that info to this phone when it comes out?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disfected:
The US T-mobile Variant is completely different from the UK model, won't be the same. Also it's true you can never get 3G with T-Mobile, don't know anything about TIM though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
T-Mobile uses the 1700 AWS band which this phone does not use so yes... You will NEVER get 3g or HSPA+ with T-Mobile U.S.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcaz:
From Wikipedia's list of UMTS frequencies:

TIM Brasil	Brazil	2008 April	850/2100

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UMTS_networks

The phone will work fine for you in Brazil.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
so when you say fine, the phone, 3g to get to the internet, etc etc will all work?

as it is here, the phone works great and when with wi-fi, the internet is great but EDGE sucks ass.

So, as I already know that I am beating the dead horse. 3G here with T-Mobile is never going to happen but it will work with AT+T, in Brazil, the phone for calls will work fine, 3G will also work fine too.

does anyone know about claro, vivo or oi in brazil? just wondering....

and what about other carriers in the US, will it work with anyone beside AT+T?

thanks again. this has been very useful!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcaz:
EDGE runs on GPRS. Your phone matches TIM's UMTS frequencies so it will have 3G data on that network.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost77:
Why would you buy a phone without checking on what radio bands it works , its not like US has only one provider they all have different bands/frequencies.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
as I said in my first post, I was told it was a US version phone. HENCE, I figured it would work in the US.

I buy unlocked phones as I am in Brazil 9 months a year and Cali 3 months a year so I can not be under contract.

but thanks for the help on this. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
so if I have been schooled properly. T-Mobile uses 1700 and 2100, so without the 1700 band, it wont work!

I guess I got to talk with AT+T

will any other carrier in the US support this?????

thanks again to all who have helped....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost77:
And it does work in US ON AT&T. T-Mobile is only a minor carrier.

So it is your fault.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pblocal:
it seems that only T-Mobile and a few Canadian carriers (and cincinati bell) use the 1700 network! I wonder why?

they need to join the rest of the world and get on board with 2100!

thanks for this link. it eases my mind about returning to brazil with a 600 phone! I needed to know it would work....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ricardo_c:
Hi

I don't know if it includes Danish. But will probably work on your phone, as the title says [6.35] that is your phone radio.

But I haven't tried this one.

You will also need to change your phone to S-OFF as it's S-ON now. Then you can flash ROMs.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] eyeofra:
thanks

Okay awsome... ill just have to check it out to see if danish is included..

Does this cable show anything that is on the Tab, i.e. the desktop, or just the video apps output.

I would like it to replicate what is on the tabs screen all the time.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] lictor4:
It mirrors anything on the tab screen. beware tho, its hit and miss if the cable will work.on my tab its black and white and very in clear, not sure if its the cable, my tab, my tv or a combo of the 3
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] player911:
Sounds like you have it plugged into the wrong ports on your TV. These are composite cables (Red/White/Yellow) and if you plug them into a COMPONENT (Red/Blue/Green) connection, you'll get this.

Reason: Composite cable has Red/White = Audio and Yellow = Video. Composite throws all the colors over the Yellow connector but COMPONENT separates out the Red, Blue, and Green colors. So if you plug the Yellow into any of the wrong connections, you'll get just a black and white image and no audio (component inputs only accept video, so sound is ignored).
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] ADOLFOHERNANDEZ:
So, finally from what I have read here, there is no certainty yet on whether the A/V Composite cable would or wouldn't work for the GT-P1010! :-/
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] JJ Annala:
You need Samsung's own cradle. There is minihdmi back. Works great!
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] jcvl:
Hi guys, I have a p1010, I bouth a composite cable for it from ebay. I tested it and doesn't send the image, if I connect the video (yellow) cable from the cable tv decoder instead of the one coming from the p1010 I can hear the sound from the tablet in the TV. If I connect the yellow cable from the tablet there is no sound nor image. I though it was broken so I ordered another one from another seller, just got it and got the same result.

Any ideas?

Thanks

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalek823:
I decided today I was going to switch my ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate so I first tried to switch to Andromeda 3. It would not install so I restored my back up to the first back up I made that was the stock ROM after rooting and tried again to install Andromeda 3. So it finally installed but I didn't like it so I found a really cool ROM called Mosaic LINK-(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=892973) which I installed. Now whenever I start up my phone I get a whole bunch of colored lines going across my screen but strangely enough it goes to the boot loader and works great but now I cannot get into recovery.

Every time I attempt to get into recovery I get the colorful lines across my screen and it freezes. I tried to flash the Clockworkmod recovery but it gives me only 4 model options to chose from (Galaxy S i9000, GalaxyS i9000 (MTD), Google Nexus S, and Nexus S 4G). I have tried flashing it to the Galaxy S i9000 but does not fix the problem.

I have looked on google trying to find a solution to my possibly corrupted recovery but cannot find anything similar and would love to hear some opinions on this because of right now I am stuck with the ROM forever.

Thank you

OP there are instructions on post 2 of the mosaic thread that you did not follow you were supposed to flash stock I9000 gingerbread first to update your bootloaders THEN flash a kernel that has cwm with odin and THEN flash the rom, but since you've already flashed mosaic use this to update the bootloaders and it will solve your issues. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1180807

Next time please post in the rom specific q&a thread to keep the forum from getting cluttered that's why they're there.

Did u flash the i9000 gingerbread bootloaders/ stock i9000 gb/ or xcal's reorient kernel ??

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Thanks for the referral.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalek823:
So I am going to try this fix you guys are suggesting with the i9000 boot loaders but I have a question. Will I need to reinstall boot loaders for I897 in the future then if I want to go back to the ROMs I used in the past and from now on do I have to use ROMs for i9000 only?

Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
No they are backwards compatible but to down grade to froyo flash a froyo kernel with odin and then flash the rom in cwm.

DO NOT FLASH THE 3 BUTTON FIX WITH GINGERBREAD BOOTLOADERS. it will mix a gingerbread primary and a froyo secondary and will HARD BRICK you're phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalek823:
What do you mean, I shouldnt flash the 3 button fix?, how do I avoid that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
They are a zip and a .tar package to fix broken button combos. they were made for eclair/froyo but flashing them on gingerbread will brick the phone.

So to avoid doing that just don't flash either of those...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalek823:
Ok, I will avoid any flashes to fix buttons. Thank you for all your help and I am happy to say my phone now goes into recovery again.

Hey guys, weirdest problem ever. My phone keeps turning on car mode and defaulting the home to the clock screen. There have also been instances where the phone will be telling me that it is charging when it isn't connected. it happens on all roms I have tested,.currently on miui which seems to be the best for it.

I'm starting to think it's a faulty sensor in the phone, is it possible to completely remove car mode? As I don't drive and would be alot easier than sending back the device.

Cheers guys
[Motorola Triumph] rubejb:
Posted this elsewhere and haven't found a solution...

With the Optimus V I had CM7 installed, and it had an option for long-press volume-up to skip tracks, and volume-down would go back a track.

But since I listen to mostly podcasts, I went in with root explorer and changed the physical search button to be fast-forward to get past boring parts.

Since the Triumph doesn't have much in the way of physical buttons, I was trying to use the long-press volume keys to FF and rewind the current track.

I've gone to /system/usr/keylayout (this is the directory of the Optimus's settings)

But there are a number of .kl files in that folder. Does anyone know which is the one the Triumph uses for the physical keys? I'm assuming it's the "fbx_kybd.kl" since there are only 4 keys listed in it.

Also, what would key values would I add to the file to make my FF setup work?

ex:

key ??? MEDIA_FAST_FORWARD

key ??? MEDIA_REWIND

Thanks!
[Motorola Triumph] rubejb:
Still trying...

Ok, so the phone has been out for a while now, people have started making custom ROMs and such. Does anyone have an answer to my question?

Yes, Viper comes with the stock kernel. It still uses the OC Daemon which will underclocks your phone in sleep mode, then automatically bring it back up to speed with no lag. Great for battery life.

Saw this article and also an article from HTC Vietnam

http://blog.htcsmartphone.com.vn/?p=1837 (use Google Translate if you want)

That mean, we can pick up new device on September 1st?

I can wait to renew my contract.

Sep 1st = Mango Release + Call of Duty XP

Sep 2st = Vietnamese Independence Day + Call of Duty XP

Too good for September.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TIGGAH:
I wouldn't count on seeing the update happen on Sept 1st. Microsoft is already saying that it won't release then and I cannot imagine the carriers have their crap together well enough to get ready for deployment by that time.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
I would tend to agree, but it is also worth pointing out that Belfiore didn't actually say it wouldn't be released on the first. All he said is that it was a rumor (which means nothing more than it didn't come from an official Microsoft announcement). After all, when the first RTM announcement leaked, Microsoft was quick to say that it was also just a rumor, despite the fact that it was only 3 days away from actually happening.

I'm not trying to build up false hope, but at the same time, all we really have to go on is a rumor (that pocketlint believes to be credible) and a very vague response on Twitter.

As for carriers being ready, I just look back at NoDo. The HTC Arrive was ready to go a full month before most carriers had their upgrade testing completed for existing devices. If it means selling new hardware, rest assured they won't spin their wheels.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:

[Windows Phone 7 General] Zurvv:

then hunt around alittle more for this old news and see that joebelfiore says it just a rumor. (he is the corporate vice president and director of Windows Phone Program Management)

[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
k i know what i want know, a pre-paid simcard , can't wait to have a new phone...

When will T-Mobile finish merging with AT&T then?
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
You mean the same way they "debunked" the release of the Mango beta to developers? There was a blog post that said it was coming "this week" (meaning the week of the post), and Microsoft's "debunking" response was "nothing is happening this week". While that was true, the release did happen, the next week. Or is it like the "debunking" of the RTM of Mango, which was reported on a number of sites as happening "today" (meaning the day of the report), which Microsoft "debunked" as "it's not happening today". Again, their statement was true, but it didn't bother to mention the fact that it was going to happen just 3 days later.

So, forgive me if I take Joe's very cryptic, ambiguous "Sept 1? Just a rumor." comment as much of a debunking. Maybe it won't happen on the 1st. Maybe it will be announced on the 2nd, at IFA. Or maybe it won't happen until a few weeks later. Just about anything is possible at this point.
