[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fpga_guy:
This is a shot in the dark. The stock NC (rooted) has had all sorts of wifi problem. See http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11458921&postcount=1

Finally after BN1.3 came, all my wifi problems went away. My NC connects at home with 802.11n, WPA2 encryption. It previously had connect/disconnect problems at home and at work, a multipoint 802.11n high speed system. Now the NC connects flawlessly everywhere. There may be chance that Dalingren's latest OC kernel may have fixed it too.

This may or may not help depending on where the CM7 wifi drivers came from.
[7 Mozart General] hypergeometric:
Hello! I've checked all over the internet and can't seem to find anywhere how to debrand my Telstra branded Mozart. I've followed the steps laid out by Casey_boy in his guide multiple times and ended up with a vender id error each time. Trust me when I say that I have searched everywhere for a solution. These searches have led to various threads in which my question, specifically regarding Telstra, is asked but receives no response. This is my last resort.

I'm running this phone on the AT&T network in the United States since Telstra and AT&T both share one of the same 3G frequencies (850 mhz). I've heard awful things about how Telstra handles updates and would love to be prepared to update my phone to Mango as soon as it comes out. Thanks in advance.

I am not a noob, in fact I am actually a software developer, just not for Android devices so all of this is not a level playing field. My end goal is to get CM7 on my Samsung Fascinate (I500). But, I have never been able to boot into Clockwork Recovery despite the numerous attempts and methods to install it. It always has booted the default Samsung Recovery Utils. First I tried installing it thru the app (and yes it is rooted, Superuser agrees). Finally, I think Odin did me in for the final time, I tried installing CWMRecovery.tar using Odin and now my phone is in an infinite loop, always loading the Samsung Recovery Utils, can't get back to the OS. I read the "Unbrick my fascinate" guide, no luck there. How can I just get this thing working?
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
Question: when you used odin, did you put the cwmall.tar in PDA or PHONE?
[Fascinate General] codemann8:
I put it in PDA as the guide said. I do have an new update tho, after trying a couple more of the tars on the guide I was able to get it back up and working however still unable to get into Clockwork Recovery. Everytime I try booting into it, it has an error "failed to verify whole-file signature" and "signature verification failed". Would you know why this isn't booting into Clockwork?
[Fascinate General] droidstyle:
I think you should odin a stock package first. Read the bottom half on going back to stock.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movielover76:
I got my tbolt on launch day, but I don't have lte service in my area so I'm on the ehrpd network 99% of the time.

When I first got the phone I got really impressive ehrpd speeds 2.5 mbps and 1.3 - 1.5 mbps up.

Now after months of lte phones being out I get 1.3 Max and 800 up.

I know that ehrpd is the same as far as maximum speed, but I'm wondering of anyone else has noticed this slowdown in 3g areas, possibly caused by more users on ehrpd
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
EHRPD (evolved high rate packet data) is a protocol subset of cdm2000, which is the network. NOT EHRPD. HRPD is implemented in 1xRTT evolved networks such as EV-DO rev.0 and 1 in order to break from a switch based network to a packet based network. EHRPD is supposed to support hand-over from CDMA networks to LTE networks, however, Verizon hasn't widely implemented EHRPD so far as I can tell. I RARELY see a hand-off of an active data session back or forth from CDMA to LTE.

The only things that would really effect your speeds over a CDMA network would be the backing network of the base station (tower) or user base in the cell. I don't believe Verizon throttles that data. They certainly don't throttle data on LTE.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghstrdr1985:
So are you saying EHRPD towers are similar to LTE towers? Or am I way the hell off?:confused:
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
ehrpd resides in the towers with lte and helps with the handoff between going from 4g back to 3g. how many towers currently have it? I do not know, but I'd say not that many.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movielover76:
Thanks

Sorry, I did post this in the wrong forum, and as such I deserve some flaming lol.

I've been around here for a little while since jan 2011, it was just a brainfart.

I know I am connected to ehrpd because under about phone it says cdma - ehrpd

I'm just a little south, maybe 6 miles for the LTE market in Northern NJ, I was just wondering if anyone else in a 3G area experienced a similar slowdown.

I bought a 4G handset knowing it might be awhile before i get LTE, because I was concerned about being stuck in a tiered data plan when I upgraded to 4G, turned out not to be an issue, but I'm still happy I got it, it's a great phone

and I do use LTE occasionally like when to school.

Thanks for all the replies, and if theirs any other oddballs in a 3G area most of the time with a thunderbolt, let me know if you've experienced anything similair
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghstrdr1985:
Man that is a mouthful. However, the Thunderbolt can talk & surf the web in 3G mode, not just LTE. So LTE will be a competition for GSM in the coming years?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
it'll be the 4th generation of GSM (4g).

[Vibrant General] younix258:
Everyone seems to assume that any liquid on aany electronic equiptment will damage the electronics. This is Incorrect.

To be precise, the two things that >certain< liquids do to electronics are:

1. If the electronic has any form of current going through it and a CONDUCTIVE liquid is put in contact with it, the liquid may conduct electricity from one compononent to another. The receiving side might not take kindly to this incoming current.

2. If the electronic is put into contact with a CORROSIVE liquid (ie a liquid that will react with any material that a component is made of), contacts or other electronic parts can get worn out. To elaborate, imagine the rust that water will cause on the metal parts of a motherboard.

Another common myth: water conducts electricity <- false

Distillled water, which is as close to pure h2o as anyone cares to make does NOT actually conduct electricity. Drinking wwater, tap water, sea water, pretty much every other kind (as well as most other liquids out there) have dissolved ions. Those ions in an aqueous solution are what conduct the electricity.

So to recap, the reason you take out the batt on your phone when you drop it into the pool (you do this right?) is so that you dont cook a chip or other piece of your motherboard by, for example, bridging your batteries direct current to your processor (helluvah overclock huh?)

water is fine on electronics as long as there is no power source attached and you make sure to leave no trace of water on it (use a can of air or put it into a bag of rice which will draw out the water over a week or so). Tap water will probably leave residue of dissolves ions after the water evaporates... you dont want that on your motherboard do ya?

Strictly speaking, distilled wwater on your motherboard shouldnt cause any problems (as far as i know) even with a power source attached and running. Of course this is an ideal situation and in real life, complications may arise so i wouldnt do it just for the sake of doing it.

Alcohol is often used on electronics because it evaporizes extremely quickly and leaves no trace of itself. I dont think pure alcohol conducts electricity (anyone?)

So personally, if i dropped my phone in the toilet, id pull the batt and motherboard and submerge the motherboard in pure distilled water or alcohol blow it out with compressed air and then let it dry in uncooked rice for a week.

To conclude my rambling, i have a friend who washed his motherboard with soap and water and it worked afterwards....

Why not?

[Vibrant General] younix258:
what that is???

i confused am.
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Just to clarify, you appear to have distilled water confused with deionized water. The two are different.

Secondly, the moment deionized water comes into contact with normal air, it is essentially no longer pure, it quickly leaches gases from the air including CO2 to become acidic in pH.

You were incorrect when you said distilled water does not conduct electricity. It may, depending on the amount of ions it contains. Online sources which also say distilled water does not conduct electricity are also incorrect. Many people don't know the difference between distilled and deionized, and falsely assume the two are the same, they are not.

If you can get your hand in some pure alcohol or close to 99% just open the phone and clean the board with it , that will dry it sooner

Isnt distilled water literally just h2o until you open the bottle?? How can pure h2o conduct electricity?

[Vibrant General] younix258:
Okay after a bit of research, it seems that both methods, deionization and distillation product almost pure h2o, the difference being in that deionization can leave behind organic materials, viruses and other uncharged substances. Pure h2o does minimally conduct electricity because of the h+ and oh- ions formed by self-ionization.

[Vibrant General] mrrobc97:
Ok lets talk bout real life situations

1. Your 99% more likely to drop your phone in something containing tap water or a rain puddle than a bucket of distilled water.

2. You would soak your phone in distilled water after dropping it in the toilet? Im no science teacher so correct me if I'm wrong please, distilled or not wouldn't pure H2O still oxidize any metal components in a electronic board and even then why would you risk getting water in your screen?

3. Everyone assumes that dropping your phone in any liquid will damage your phone? NO. Everyone assumes that if they drop their phone in MOST liquids that they encounter everyday (tap water, rain water, soda, beer, old motor oil, soup, etc.) WILL result in damage.

We are worried about what could your phone would most likely drop into. Real situations homie.

Okay i mentioned distilled water because i use it to clean... if my phone is wet from tap or pool water, i use pure h2o to wash impurities away and then some method of drying to avoid corrosion; i perfer iit be wet with a clean solution than pool water.. now your right, alcohol may be better for cleaning but idk what alcohol would do to the screen, ive heard tthat it may fog it up permanently...

At my work, we use 99% isopropanol. The higher the percentage, the purer (more pure?) the alcohol is.

Keep in mind that the alcohol will eat away at any conformal coating on the circuit board (if any). It will need to be re-coated as the conformal coat helps protect against liquids, dust, etc.

[Vibrant General] mrrobc97:
Not trolling you at all. I'm sorry if that what you thought.

I do understand your point on that different liquids have different properties that may or may not cause some type of reaction to the different materials that are present in your phone and that some liquids will have more conductivity than others.

Now my point I was trying to make is that there isn't really no misconception at all between us users. I.o.w. as very informative your post is (and it is ), its kinda irrelevant because the fact of the matter is that if our phones somehow end up contacting a liquid its gonna be more likely that the liquid is gonna have a negative effect on our phone one way or another. Like you said you not would submerse your phone in alcohol cuz even though it won't affect the circuity it might still leave a haze on the clear plastic. Acetone will have an even worse effect on the plastic than alcohol. Any moisture left inside your phone will cause corrosion to some of the metals inside your phone. Like I said before ,your phone consists of many different materials. Even though this type of liquid won't do harm to this part of the phone, it might do harm to another. No matter how you look at it you don't want your phone or any electronics in contact with any liquid.

You said water is "fine" on electronics but then you said as long as "you make sure to leave no trace" and for me that contradicts itself because your trying to get rid of the water so it doesn't cause any damage. I just don't want people to be less urgent if they get their phone wet.

[Vibrant General] younix258:
Youre right, my post might not do so much to help people in this forum. To tell the truth, i wrote it out of a selfish desire to inform people not to automatically assume all liquids always kill electronics ... i always feel better when i have an understanding of the underlying mechanisms at work, so to tell the truth, i secretly wrote this to other me's and disguised it as help to others..

Who knows, maybe someone can come up with more creative ways of cleaning phones now that they know that, mainly, they just have to avoid current w/ conductivity and prolonged contact with corrosive liquids.

Anyways i guess thats why i took you at troll value, because i wrote something which helps me and you just seemed to insist that it cant help. No hard feelings

[Vibrant General] mrrobc97:
None whatsoever. Anyways what I wish is that they make (all) new phones 100% impermeable and airtight without worrying about overheat. You will still have a removable battery cover but it would snap back air tight easily and no plastic whatsoever or any other material on the phone that couldn't stand up to acetone for example. Headphone and USB sockets would both have sliding airtight covers and the speaker and mics would have some type of membrane that would let sound pass easily but would also be air tight. Power ant Volume buttons also air tight. I wanna be able to swim with that ***** and still check my email underwater. I wanna be able to go to the sewage treatment plant and retrieve my phone there cuz I flushed it down the toilet and still be able to make a call with that stinky *****.I know they could do it but they try to make profit by building some of these phones cheaply.

I'm a aircraft composite technician, sounds fancy but in reality what I do is repair any damage to the composite parts of an airplane and I use acetone alot among many other solvents, resins ,and chemicals at my work everyday and I have to be real careful handling my phone at work. Thats why I bought a LG stereo bluetooth headset so I could control calls and music without my phone leaving my pocket. That's one way to keep your phone out of harm's way.

While I think mrrobc97's approach is a bit too extreme (at least for being on all future electronics), I do strongly agree there is a long way to go in water and liquid insulation for phones at the very least.
