Hey

I recently flashed Miui English, latest version.

But I quickly faced the following issues :

- It didn't ask for my PIN.

- Wifi worked, but weird bugs occurred.

I found it weird, so I did what a topic advised : I edited /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini

The modifications were only applied to the power saving setting.

I rebooted and I'm not sure if it happened immediately but eventually wifi didn't even work anymore. So I installed CM7, no changes.

Flashed back the 3.4.3-11 Blur .sbf and ... no changes ! Data and cache Wipe doesn't change anything either. Of course I also restored the tiwlan.ini .

So whatever the ROM it is I'm using, "Invalid Sim card" and wifi "connects, disconnects, scans, connects, disconnects" but never ever connects.

How do I fix this ? It seems to be software-side 'cause it appeared when I installed Miui.

Hello,

I tried changing my system look with uotkitchen. Everything worked fine until I have the update zip for recovery. I try to flash it via xrecovery 0.3 but it says that there is a syntax error in the update script. Perhaps anybody will find the error:

I'm under android 2.3 with the custom rom in my sig.

Greetings

Is this happening for everyone? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I am running ZenDroid 2.1.1, but it also happened on the previous versions, and apparently users on other roms have similar problems...

I moved to a new house with terrible cell reception, and I really need this to work. Any help appreciated. Thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IrieBro:
I have the same issue

Got fed up with this issue today and saw your threads. I have multiple routers. I seem to really have bad echo for people who have Sprint. Anyway, I have tried various settings on my routers to no avail.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamcooks:
turn the volume down on your earpiece. This is what seems to be reported as the fix, on the numerous threads about the wifi calling "bug".

I don't use it but, I do read around these fora
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WiteFlash:
I know this thread is a bit old, but I'm also having this problem. I'm currently running Bionix-V 1.3.1 Fishman Mod V3 (Bali kernel). I don't think I had the wifi calling echo problem when I was using the regular Bionix-V 1.3.1 with the regular froyo kernel... can't really remember now, though.

I have yet to try turning down the volume on the earpiece as previously suggested, but that doesn't seem like a "fix" to me, only a way to "cover up" the problem. Going throughout the day turning down/up my earpiece volume as I use/don't use wifi calling is silly. Call me crazy, but I like things to just work. That's one of the reasons I chose the Bionix ROM over others.

[Nook Touch General] jago25_98:
I have been waiting for years for a device with a screen that won't strain my eyes.

The adam was a disappointment with the screen.

So when i heard about the rooted Nook touch, and after using a Kobo for a week to see if ebooks are a 5minute wonder just in case, i decided to get one.

Of the things i'm going to try straight away are VNCViewer and some kind of mapping application. Both of these things give you unique advantages with the nook.

VNCViewer: by connecting to a desktop/laptop with view only you can browse on the laptop but when you get to a page where you need to do a lot of reading you use the Nook. What about doing the same with a mobile phone?

Maps: Every other sat nav/gps is not that great in bright sunlight and uses battery if you want a big display. Already we can link to a phone by wifi via joikuspot wifi tethering for google maps but also offline maps cpuld be useful too. And what about positioning? Well, that should be possible by sharing out the gps from a phone, or as i said before, shafing the display of the phone. While it is a great shame that the Nook doesn't have bluetooth so extGPS is not already useable, perhaps it could be done over wifi. In fact it might even be possible to do something like this by using the SD card slot; this was done to an out of date device i once saw.... Must look it up.

I hope these 2 ideas have got you excited!
[Nook Touch General] sambwel:
I'm not sure how practical a map application would be, due to lack of positioning internal to the device itself, and the screen type not being ideal for such an application. Both problems seem to me to require too much effort to work around.

But the VNCViewer idea is interesting. Perhaps it could be called something simple, like "Read on Nook" (perhaps something more generic if it supports other readers)?

I certainly think it's a clever idea of being able to simply switch devices when reading a document. If implemented well it could be quite useful! It seems like quite a challenge to code, though... good luck :)
[Nook Touch General] jago25_98:
I've managed to get it working.

I used:

$vncserver :1 #select low quality & pick a password
$vncviewer ViewOnly -shared IP:port

^ both on the host

And Remote VNC Pro on the Nook Touch. AndroidVNC also works but not as well because the display doesn't fill the screen properly.

Of course you have to scroll to view on the small screen, and you are doing the viewing via VNCViewer on the desktop host, which is klunky. What we need is a way to constant screencast by VNC on the host, that would be neater. I'm sure there is a way of doing this! Still, it's usable already as a little satellite screen and keeps the Nook working when it wouldn't normally be used! Is this a world first for browsing wikpedia via eink & firefox in bright sunlight ? I'll have to upload a vid. I can use a laptop outdoors now, albeit with a tiny screen... oh yeah and totally tied to a WiFi spot like joiku/tethering (probably easier than adhoc)

Regards maps, NDrive I can't get working. LocusPro works but for this I think we will need TetherGPS, which I can't get working because I can't get GoogleApps/GMail to install which is what I need for AppsMarket to get that TetherGPS .apk! However, does TetherGPS work over WiFi anyway... or is it just bluetooth?

I can't really get my head round LocusPro too much. I'll have to have a look for apps that cache google maps. Hopefully they won't have the hassles installing like gmail. MapDroyd looks very good.

edit:

For GPS use a MiFi portable access point and https://market.android.com/details?id=com.comptonsoft.tgps_lite&feature=more_from_developer on your Android GPS enabled phone
[Eee Pad Transformer General] altsyst:
Hi,

I didn't want to use nandroid and titanium since I wanted all my /data partition saved (which includes /sdcard) exactly as it is (icons and widget location, sdcard content, etc.).

I finally managed to find a unix way to do it, using dd and nvflash.

I've used an usb external drive to store the data partition (around 14G), and you'll need to be root.

First, open a terminal, cd to your external drive and as root, type :

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p7 of=data.img

It will save an ext4 image of all your datas.

You can loop mount it if you want to check :

/system/xbin/mount -o loop data.img

Then the script below will restore your entire partition, which is handy when you want to test a new rom without wiping your

data, and with the insurance that your system will be exactly the same (including the icons and widget location in

your home display) :

#!/bin/sh

./nvflash --bct transformer.bct --setbct --configfile flash.cfg --bl bootloader.bin --odmdata 0x300d8011 --sbk 0x1682CCD8 0x8A1A

43EA 0xA532EEB6 0xECFE1D98 --sync

sleep 1

./nvflash --resume --rawdevicewrite 821760 6728960 data.img

./nvflash --resume --sync

It works for me straightforward. However, if you come to play with this, and it doesn't work, just reflash your tf with a custom rom.

I never managed to brick my tf, thanks to the nvflash tools. Seems unbrickable.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] iSingle:
why is your NumSectors=6728960? Mine is 7017728.

7017728 sectors is about 13.7GB,and 6728960 sectors is about 13.14GB.

I don't think it is machine specific.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
Hi guys I am buying a eee pad but currently I am emailing Eclipse Google and others to try and get support to make developing for Android on Android possible.

I wish to start a foundation or support group toward this end if you want to contribute or help in anyway it would be great I will also add a poll for comparison of votes so please vote it all helps.

As I understand it porting Ubuntu to different devices is well still in beta stages for the most part but we all know that personalized mobile computing is the future and tablets or tf style devices will eventually replace laptops netbooks and the like.

As I understand the biggest problem is new tech!! that fresh out the box smell is still lingering and leaves support and development slim in some more common place computing needs where x86 has rained supreme leaving others to wish for such a client base of great support and programs.

So all in all this is to try push things in the right direction. Who to talk to when to talk to them and how to help the eee pad and other similar devices become fully fledged dual boot Android Ubuntu platforms with the option to develop and do all the other great things Ubuntu can offer.

Please only positive criticism or feedback this is the tech community anything is possible so please no comments of OMG YOU CANT DO THAT!!!! etc etc
[Eee Pad Transformer General] altsyst:
Currently, you can compile C program or whatever without problems, using a chroot ubuntu or debian.

But developing for android implies that the android sdk has to be ported on arm platform. This is a paradox, but most android and java tools are working only on x86 platform, probably because at this time, phones was not meant to be dev platforms considering their cpu power.

Openjdk seems to work on arm but the android sdk relies on javac from sun.

There are now powerful tablet devices on the market - including our beloved tf - where we could potentially develop android apps ; I think that google will sooner or later release an arm version of the android sdk. Since then, we are almost pretty stuck : I'm not sure that all the android tools are opensource, and even if it is the case, there is still the problem of javac from sun which does not work on arm platform. However, doing our own dev platform implies that we can port ourselves the sdk on arm, and use openjdk as a replacement of sun-java runtime. Not a piece of cake :-) My advice is to wait several months google next move to see what's going to happen, now that there are more and more tablets on the market.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
If we get enough support though maybe we can push for both to be ported and released :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thebadfrog:
Omg this doesn"t belong in the development forum!!!!!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cypher_zero:
Would love to see more development done on this!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
As time progresses, more will be done definitely this is more about making sure that it is pushed as i believe at the moment its being over looked. I think manufacturers and Google and eclipse etc all under estimate there own products possibilities and the abilities of the tech community and in particular the xda community. Even if we had beta releases only for xda devs it would be a step in the right direction for developing android on android.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GeraldNunn:
OK I'm going to bite the bullet and ask why would this be considered a good idea? I write software for Android and using Eclipse on lower screen resolutions isn't that productive IMHO, throw in poor keyboards and miniscule touchpads and it makes little sense. Finally considering the performance differences between a tablet and development laptop (i7, 8 GB RAM, SSD, etc) I just can't see getting the development tools working on an Android device to be all that useful at this point in time.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dburckh:
Nvidia is claiming the T3 will be as powerful as a Core 2. Seems a little exaggerated, but in the near future, it may be possible to dev. on a tab. Eclipse (and real games) are the last things tying me to my PC. Now I would not want to run Eclipse on a T2, but a T4??? Now we are talking. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:

I tend to agree. I find even a powerful laptop is pretty marginal. I prefer a desktop with at least 2 monitors, one for code and one for the emulator.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dropper22:
So I bought a brand new Xperia Play from eBay. I assume that it is covered under warranty.

However, the other week I dropped the phone. The LCD Screen is not completely cracked! What is disgraceful is that the drop was not even from a high height! Such a brittle piece of plastic!!

The strange thing is, although the phone still works, it seems to run a little bit more sluggish. I'm not sure. The BIG problem is, when I begin a call, my screen turns black, and once the call is finished, the screen won't turn back on again (Even though I can hear sounds through the speakers). If I press the lock button quick enough before ending a call the screen sometimes turns back on.

I was thinking about buying a new LCD screen from ebay for £20, however I'm afraid that it won't fix the 'screen turning off during a call' problem.

What would be the best way to get this phone repaired?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Does anyone know the best route to get this repaired?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blagus:
Replace the front glass. Maybe you didn't destroy the proximity, but just damaged it to behave in that way. Also, broken glass is also maybe affecting it.

Thanks, I'm going to buy a new screen then. God knows how long it will take to ship, but I will keep you guys updated with pictures as soon as progress is made.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
Mine was doing exactly the same thing after shattering the glass. The proximity sensor could not see through the cracks and the IR light would refract back in as if it were against my face. It behaved strangely where sometimes opening the slider would snap it out and other times it would not. Replacing the glass/digitizer did the trick. The only problem was that no replacement parts on eBay include the adhesive gasket and the old one is likely ruined with stuck-on glass shards. I pulled off as much as I could and reused it but me touchscreen doesn't stick all the way down sometimes. I ordered a dummy phone to see if I could salvage it from one.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
The screen is designed to switch off during a call if it detects you face next to the screen (proximity sensor) if it is damaged and reporting wrong info to android. That is why the screen switches off during call.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
The sensor is fine. The glass covering it is not.

Hey all, had my g2x for a few months, had a rooted g1, and had some questions about rooting the g2x.

ive been looking in all the g2x forums about rooting, and i just wanna make sure of somethings before rooting and possibly bricking my phone.

1. For Froyo, the superoneclickroot is needed, but for gingerbread stock 2.3.3, you only need to follow these instructions right?: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847

2. can someone give me a succint but thorough explanation of WHY the rooting procedures are different for froyo and 2.3.3? (ex: froyo you need to use superoneclick, gingerbread you can just flash the one click clockworkmod)

3. Is there anyway just to root a stock 2.3.3 g2x? (no roms or w/e, only root)

Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Simply, superoneclick works on froyo but on gingerbread you have to flash a PRE-ROOTED ROM. You have to have Clockworkmod recovery to flash stuff so to have a rooted gingerbread you need to follow those instructions and flash a rooted gingerbread rom, it can be found in the dev section.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Actually whether you have 2.2 or 2.3, or anything else for that matter, you can flash cwm recovery and flash another rom. The benefit of being able to root 2.2 with superoneclick is that you can root it in place, thus preserving all your apps, settings, etc.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
The tool super one click does not work with 2.3.3 on this phone. So while all can do the recovery method, only froyo can use the tool.

There seems to be a lot of backup options out there with Titanium Backup and My Backup Pro leading the pack.

What are the differences between these apps? Is there anything that will allow you create a complete backup image of your entire phone like Acronis True Image or Norton Ghost for a PC?

Now that I have root access, I know my potential to destroy my phone is greater. Therefore, I want something that would allow me to fully restore it to the point right before I messed things up. On my PC, I always make an image of it before I try something risky. Being able to restore the backed up image has saved my butt on many occasions. I want the same functionality for my Photon.
