[LG Revolution] locohammerhead:
i dont think it has to do with software because I had the same problem on four different thunderbolts. I also rooted it and tried multiple different roms and radios. So unless LG and HTC all use the same radios odds are thats not the problem.
[LG Revolution] Squiz0329:
Well, my Xoom runs fine on 3G,and it doesn't have a 4G radio yet. So I doubt it's Verizon.
[LG Revolution] locohammerhead:
I was thinking maybe there is something wrong with my account or sim card? The girl that set everything up originally was a complete and utter moron that did not know what what was doing.
[LG Revolution] djembeman:
temporary problems.

Earlier on when I got my phone I had intermittent connectivity issues, but toggling airplane mode on and off or a reboot usually fixed it...and for longer than 15 min, more like days. I'm in a 4G area now, but for about a month and a half only had 3G. Occasionally I still loose connectivity but both methods I just spoke of will fix it for the long term.

It seems very odd that it's not a widespread problem. It’s just so weird. I can stream several Netflix movies back to back without any breaks, even on 3G.

[LG Revolution] impherring13:
Same Here

I run into this same problem while tethering whether on LTE or 3g. It runs great for a while, hours even, then all the sudden it will quit for anywhere from a minute to an hour or more. Sometimes a reboot will fix it. Interesting thing is I ran into the same problem with my old motorola droid. Make me lean towards this being an issue on verizon's end.
[LG Revolution] speedtrap63:
Does this occur when you are connected to wifi or only on 3G/1x? Have you tried testing in different locations with varying signal strengths?

Do you have the problem without root?

I'm wondering if this is an issue with your local network, meaning Verizon's network in your area. Since it happened on two different models and several phones, it would seem to indicate that it is an environment issue rather than a radio or other hardware problem.
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
I have a similar issue, but with text messages. I can send 3-5 text messages before it just chokes up. Then I have to reboot, or turn airplane mode on/off. Then I can send 3-5 text messages before it chokes again. I've done everything I can think of to isolate the problem, to no avail.

If anyone has a solution to his, please let me know. It's almost worse than not being able to make phone calls.

I also experience the Internet issue, but less frequently. It;s not my ROM, because I've used three different ROMs (including stock) and it was a problem on all of them. I saw on some other forum that it may be an issue generated by switching from a 3G phone to a 4G phone. If the VZW rep who setup your phone didn't do everything right, there's a "behind the scenes" setting that sometimes fails to get changed. The suggestion was to dial *611, describe the problem, and they should be able to fix it (though it may take 2-3 days).

I plan on trying this tomorrow, will let you know if I experience any changes. If anyone else has done this or wants to try it, post your results, and lets see if we can get this figured out.
[LG Revolution] impherring13:
Does not occur with wifi. Happens both at my house which has weak signal and also at my work about 20 miles away. At my work, the tower is practically in the parking lot.

Yes

Those are my thoughts as well.
[LG Revolution] speedtrap63:
This is almost certainly a VZW problem, whether they will acknowledge it or not is an open question. The only other things I can think of is a bad SIM card or incorrect programming of the SIM. The OP stated that Verizon swapped his out, so that leaves only the programming or the network.

Wish I had a better answer for you, bro.
[LG Revolution] RootedUser:
My internet connection just started messing up with me today too. The internet will work fine with 4g and wifi but i get no internet connection with 3g only...
[LG Revolution] joetama:
I have the exact same problem as the OP.

Really pisses me off. Want to throw vzw out the window and go back to a feature phone sometimes.

Vzw customer support is less than helpful. One will say your phones the problem, but why did I have the exact issue with my Incredible. Another will say its because I live in a fringe market area and we aren't really an important part of the network. WTF?

All I know is when I lived in Cincinnati everything worked fine. Moved up north and about 6 to 8 months later my service slowly starts sucking more and more to the point where I don't even bother looking up info on my Revo anymore.
[LG Revolution] Trigster:
I got my replacement LG Rev exactly one week ago to today. This one is all sorts of connection/rebooting issues.

Also unfortunately the update was already on my phone when I got, so no root for me :(

WiFI wont stay connected even if i'm 3ft from my router.

Phone will lose ALL signal and drop in to extend, and I'm only 1 mile from a strong 3g/4g tower.

Whenever i would pop it to airplane mode then back on, it would reboot.

I have 4 days before its been 1 month with this phone. I'm close to sending it back and getting the HTC TB or Droid 3.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
In a test of patients I reset my phone to factory default, removed CWM and it updated to v6. I have to say the network connection was the most stable I have ever had it be but in turn the phone was not as smooth. Changing between screens had lag and was not as smooth as the original rom that shipped on the phone.

I have since down graded and re-rooted. The signal is not as stable either.
[LG Revolution] Cybie257:
I was having same issue, especially with certain sites, including my own website for my business.

So far, what has fixed the issue, at least through Linux Network Settings, is setting the MTU to 1300. No other number has worked so great to date, but that seem to load everything and keep everything fast and quick with little issues.

-Cybie

EDIT: Upon further reading, I'm wondering if my reply was not quite on track. Is this problem on the phone itself, or via hotspot/tethering? It seems to be on the phone, so my reply might be way of course.
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Powersave CPU Manager

Automatically manages you cpu no matter what you use, ie. setcpu, cpumaster, virtuous_oc. This will automatically underclock your cpu and change the governor when your battery reaches a specified level. Kind of like powersave mode in settings.

You don't need to do anything to make it happen its all automated. By default it sets the governor to conservative and underclocks to 702000 then depending on whats installed it restarts virtuous_oc or changes back the governor to ondemand and the cpu back to stock (1188000).

These settings can be edited at:

/system/etc/init.d/74-virtuous for virtuous users

/system/etc/init.d/75-pcm for stock users

/system/etc/init.d/76-pcmapk for apk users (setcpu)

The lines are commented so editing should be easy enough in root explorer, if not lmk i will help out.

You will have to restart setcpu or whatever apk after your battery reaches the threshold. It works with setcpu, cpumaster, cputuner, and overclock widget.

Once you battery gets above the threshold it will restart virtuous oc or change the gov and cpu freq to whatever you specify in the script. It checks the battery level every minute.

The virtuous oc attachment includes virtuous oc this can be flashed right over my flashable oc daemon. It can be used with roms that include virtuous oc as well.

Download the zip you need:

Virtuous_OC-PCM = Virtuous_OC and PCM

PCM = PCM Stand alone Auto sets default cpu frequency use without setcpu or virtuous

PCMAPK = PCM for use with some apk's that control cpu (setcpu)

Please report any bugs here.

How to edit settings:

This is virtuous_oc version but they are all about the same.

Edit the lines in red to adjust settings, this is labeled actual script will look a little different.

#!/system/bin/sh
#PowerSave CPU Manager Virtuous
#smokin1337

SLEEP=60
(
while : ; do
#Powersave Threshold Default-25
CAP=[color=red]25[/color] [color=blue]<<-- This is the battery percent where the powersave settings will be applied, change the number in red.[/color]
LEVEL=`cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity`

if [ "$LEVEL" -lt "$CAP" ]; then
pkill virtuous_oc
#Powersave Governor
echo [color=red]conservative[/color] > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor [color=blue]<<-- Edit this to the governor you want it to be set to in powersave mode. ie. powersave, conservative, ondemand, userspace, etc.[/color]
#Powersave CPU Frequency
echo [color=red]702000[/color] > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [color=blue]<<-- Edit this to set the cpu frequency for powersave mode ie. underclock. [/color]
else
/system/xbin/virtuous_oc

fi
sleep $SLEEP
done
) &

In the stand alone version (75-pcm) there is also a setting for your default governor when not in powersave. This will be your default setting.

Your rom MUST support init.d, this is a script.

[HTC EVO 3D] proxhack:
Thank you!

I will try it now.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Does this work with the kernel in the 2.08.651.2 release?
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Is this a Terminal-based app or an actual app? If Terminal, what command invokes it?

Also, you say whatever CPU management tool we use doesn't matter, does that also mean I can just toss SetCPU altogether?
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Yes it works with the new kernel. It gets installed to init.d so it runs by itself when you boot the phone. You dont need to run it in a terminal.

It works with setcpu, you need the pcmapk version. What it does is shutdown setcpu when your battery gets low and underclocks your cpu to save battery. You just have to run setcpu again when your battery gets charged.
[HTC EVO 3D] abreuw83:
I'm interested in this mod but I don't understand what i have to do. Do I download all 3? I don't want to use any apk. to help. Do any of those downloads manage everything alone. PLEASE HELP...thank you and sorry for the noob ???s.
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Yes the PCM-signed.zip will manage it without any apk or virtuous oc. Just flash it as is. Sorry about the explanation of it i didnt know how far to go.
[HTC EVO 3D] abreuw83:
Wow...thanks for the quick response. Thank you for your work.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
not trying to be a **** here but whats the point of this being used with setcpu since setcpu seems to already do what you are describing here. profiles set up right will underclock and change govenor when battery gets to level X.

Now for the others it seems to be helpful for those that like profiles being used.
[HTC EVO 3D] smokin1337:
Honestly i havent used setcpu. But your right it works well by itself, and really good with virtuous oc. I use it personally with virtuous oc and it helps alot saving juice.
[HTC EVO 3D] SITH16:
Gonna try this out. I don't want to overclock, I just want to underclock in order to save juice.
[HTC EVO 3D] brol1k:
Please help me understand it a little more, I already use virtuous oc, I've been running the pcm version with virtuous oc the last dew days and notice a huge lag when phone reaches 20%, how can i give it a bit more juice? I think whatever you set it to when battery is low is too slow..

How does virtuous oc work together with pcm?

Also is the version for the virtuous OC-PCM in this thread the same as in the other thread (virtuous OC thread)?

3vo fre3vo'd
[HTC EVO 3D] brol1k:
Anyone can help with this please ^^^^

3vo fre3vo'd
[HTC EVO 3D] drZuheir:
my phone after installing virtuos OC-PCM kept rebooting spiral how can I remove it from recovery.. thank you...please fast ...
[HTC EVO 3D] Evo_J:
Download the uninstaller file in the thread related to it. But by now im pretty sure you fixed it. Is it stable yet?

Edit: This is stable but it doesn't save juice and my OC isn't completely stable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cweezy:
Does this require a rooted phone? I simply need the font for the app, not to reflash my phone or whatever.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProjectJourneyman:
Are you looking to use this in an app you're developing, or as a system font?

I saw an article on tutsplus showing how to handle fonts (including custom fonts) in your own app. You can include the font in your app's assets.

If you want a font to be usable in other apps, you will need root. The font folder requires root access to modify: /system/fonts/Droid*.ttf
[HTC Sensation] xplod4202:
I was thinking of using SD Booster app, i am interested what would be the optimum cache size for 8GB card.

Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] apeiron6:
There is color based suggestion terms of current cache size
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
Howdy folks. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thinking about overclocking but have not done it. What are the benefits / rewards?

Is there an app or program i can to do this?

And what is a safe range?

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Benefits : Faster phone, smoother ui

Cons: Phone may heat up if overclock is set too high

For this phone 1500 is the highest, safest number we can get to right now. I would suggest setCPU, which you can find on XDA for free. (search setCPU)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
You'll need a new kernel first, the stock one doesn't support oc. Go with Faux's assuming you're running a rom compatible with it (and most are).

After that, download Pimp My CPU from the market and you're good to go.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
To be honest with you, I notice hardly, if any, real-world phone speed increase when I overclock...barring benchmark numbers. I'm not really sure why that's the case for me, and why for some others it's such an extremely obvious difference (or so they claim). Perhaps I'm not running the same cpu intensive apps that they run. But for general, day to day, running of my phone, it's just not worth it for me due to the battery cost.

So I would love to hear from some of you where "precisely" do you see such a marked improvement on the speed of your phone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Well, first off, make sure you have a custom Recovery installed... Then find a ROM you'd like, and then, flash a custom OC Kernel..

You'll need an app such as SetCPU to control the overclock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Are you using the stock launcher? It's alot smoother with the stock launcher if OCed to 1500, although i don't notice a difference from 800 to 1500 on launcher pro.

[Motorola Photon 4G] overthatscreen:
I need instructions on how to use adb to unroot my Photon. I rooted it without the dock per this forum's instructions. And yes, I'm still a noob so I don't know what sbf is. But I can follow instructions very well, at least to a certain point.

I need help because I am returning my Photon tomorrow because I can't stand using the camera and the screen. It bothers me too much. Worse yet, I use my phone as a mp3 player and it seems to be very slow at that. With the screen off and using headset controls, it doesn't respond as fast if at all like my Optimus V or Motorola Triumph does. I'm pretty disappointed with the Tegra 2, seems almost as if it was overrated to begin with. I probably had set my expectations too high from the beginning.

I'm not much of a gamer, so graphics that the Tegra 2 is suppose to be able to put out doesn't bother me too much. I just prefer the snapdragons because they seem to work better for my needs.

And the screen. It looks great when I'm watching an mkv movie, but that's it. It doesn't do other things well enough for me. My pictures all look too grainy and pixelated. At times, when looking at skin tones, all i see are the square blotches and no smooth pictures, even hd pictures don't look right.

The camera is too slow to respond and to be honest, my Motorola Triumph takes better pictures and seems to work faster at it than the Photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ooxcfhxoo:
i doubt they will know its rooted and they probably wont care if it is....just dont say anything, but if you want to appear un rooted just delet all root user apps i.e. file explorer, wifi tether,root checker and anything that would suggest that its rooted, but it isnt really that big of a deal.

its shady....you should have root access to all your devices. Computers allow root access why not phones?
[Motorola Photon 4G] DEFNUB:
I just got rid of my 3d. Dont waste your time if you think this phone has problems the 3d is a nightmare... trust me i had mine for 3 weeks. A couple problems i had was camera sticks to 3d in 2d mode after a couple hours of use screen turns black and you have to pull battery at least twice a day battery goes from hero to zero in 2 hours with moderate use i thought the camera app was kinda weak the whole phone lags when you open app draw, browsing the market, while your on the web browser, the list just goes on and on... trust me you'll thank me later

.
[Motorola Photon 4G] overthatscreen:
I actually like the 3D more than the Photon. The wife has one and everything seems to work very well on it. I'm not into taking 3D pics, I just prefer the new Evo to the old one.

So anyways.. All I have to do is remove all the root apps and that's it? No going back in and removing the torpedo stuff?
[Motorola Photon 4G] gpgorbosjr:
I don't think it matters if it is rooted or not, but you can use this thread to go back to a stock un-rooted Moto rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] DualSportDad:
I think twice before getting rid of a photon for a 3d. I had my 3d for 2 months and was in the sprint store atleast once a week wither verified problems. Enough so that even tho I was over my 30 days they still gave me a photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] wireless.praying.mantis:
I hate to say it, but yes, we (Sprint retail corporate stores) do check Android devices for rooting prior to exchange/return and on exchanges/returns, you may also be liable for a restocking fee of $35. Our S&R technicians taught each of us how to verify rooting.
[Motorola Photon 4G] twospirits:
Even when there is a internal notice saying that service can be performed on rooted phones, you saying that I could still be liable for the restocking fee?

Sprint service and repair facts

TS
[Motorola Photon 4G] DualSportDad:
I turned in my rooted EVO 3d last week. I was 3 weeks past my 30 days, the manager and the head tech were super cool about it. I even offered to unroot it but they said it didn't matter. The tech was even questioning me about how I liked the rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ScandaLeX:
I think 1/2 the members of this forum has returned/exchanged a rooted phone...I know for sure I have. Back when I got into the whole rooting thing, I used to be paranoid whenever I took my phone in; now THATS the least of my concerns.

People need to stop slinging all that nonsense of voided warranties & restocking fees. If Sprint's good with it....so am I.
[Motorola Photon 4G] alkoholiks:
I've also returned a rooted phone and Sprint had no issues with it at all.
[Motorola Photon 4G] codee:
There is a restocking fee to return a phone period, it doesn't matter if it's rooted or not. Exchanging for the same phone because it's allegedly defective is free, changing models comes with a restocking charge. And going from the photon to the evo is a huge step backwards.... Everyone except 1 person I know with the 3d switched or is planning on switching to the photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] HYDE1000:
I am sure there are some employees that know how to check to see if a phone is rooted or not, but it is by no means the standard. As countless people have said in various threads, I have returned and had work performed on rooted phones.

I have come across so many sales associates that don't even know phone details/specs. I doubt they know how to check to see if a phone is rooted or not.
[Motorola Photon 4G] phillytemptation:
so is there a way to unroot or not? I need to return my phone for repairs. I already updated to the final build, so should I just do that again to unroot it even though it hasn't been released yet?
[Motorola Photon 4G] lojak29:
unroot for return or exchange

SIMPLE SINCE U HAVE to manually install superuser from market to gain root anyways,unlike normal method where it installs right from a rooting program,just go to application manage delete superuser,delete all trace of apps that use root or better yet do a factory reset.. superuser should uninstall, really seeing superuser on screen is the most common sign of rooted phone.

You could try the terminal emulator root method but instead of typing the last prompt as install.so-sh type uninstall

Just an idea! Also I know flashing sbf file with rsdlite looses root with no signs of ever being flashed

Good Luck
[Motorola Photon 4G] junkmailsucks:
Not exactly true...

I'm returning the Photon within my first 30 days of being a new sprint customer, and exchanging for a Samsung Galaxy II (EPIC 2 4G) with no restocking fee . The photon truly is a piece of $h1t that was not ready for release, not to mention the Idiots who designed it, approved the design, tested it after build to realize that when it is in kickstand mode, you can't charge the P.O.S. lol and out of the box, it won't play most videos that you put on it, even MP4's . Plus the amount of battery pulls is ridiculous. Trying to assign certain ringtone MP3's causes it to ring but lock up, and these are the same small 128k MP3s that all my old phones used, including my G1, MyTouch 3G, and Samsung Galaxy (ALL TMO phones). All of them can play all my videos, but the photon stutters and loses sync, etc. this is a "Not Ready for Prime Time" release just to get something out there. Shame too because I really liked the feel.. And the speakerphone is the loudest I've heard in ages... At least on a smartphone...
