[Motorola Photon 4G] gpgorbosjr:
I've had an issue ever since I switched to Sprint and this phone.

Every once and a while the phone seems to loose connection to the network, but not tell me. My bars remain 3-5 and sometimes stay blue (sometimes they go gray). HOWEVER, all my Emails and Texts get backed up. They don't come through.

The first time I noticed I restarted the phone in the morning, and a ton of texts came through. Now that I've noticed I restart the radio ever so often if my phone goes a long time without any emails/texts and half the time stuff starts coming through again.

I think its the phone not the network though, any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xxxicu812:
I also have the same problem. I've updated my profile several times through the system updates on the phone itself and still the same?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xxxicu812:
How do you restart the radio?
[Motorola Photon 4G] gpgorbosjr:
I turn airplane mode on/off. Not sure if that's really "restarting" it but it fixes it faster than restarting the phone.

If I call tech support and ask them to update it they'll know what I mean right away?

EDIT: Also, what's the deal with this? Never experienced having to update my profile when I was with Verizon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] daddymikey1975:
In the settings menu there are settings to disable the data connection, etc while the phone sleeps (screen off).. Verify that you have yours set the way you want it before calling tech support ;)

[Motorola Photon 4G] gpgorbosjr:
All of those types of settings are OK. No battery saving stuff. I called and the woman said she was "refreshing" something to my phone. We'll see if it works.

The thing wont recognize my phone and wont show the options to do xrecovery or any of the other options except for Flash...please help im desperate for a rom
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
You need to root first.

Here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1196421

Then in flashtool click 'ask root permissions' and have your phone unlocked and accept superuser permissions w/the prompt on your phone. Then you're good to go.

*edit- make sure it is the fixed xrec for 2.3.3. I use a Rom w xrec included so I didn't have to install it & I dont remember if that's the one in flashtool now.

will this work for 2.3.3?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowds:
these commands still the same you just need to change (eventually) to the right path.

check the zip structure to see that

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
dd if=/sdcard/busybox of=/system/bin/busybox
dd if=/sdcard/chargemon of=/system/bin/chargemon
dd if=/sdcard/xrecovery.tar of=/system/bin/xrecovery.tar
reboot

chargemon to \system\bin

charger to \system\bin

sh to \system\xbin

xrecovery.tar to \system\xbin

dd if=/sdcard/charger of=/system/bin/charger

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crowds:
forguet it...

copy all files to sdcard then copy/paste to the right places after that use root explorer and do this

ON EVERY FILE YOU COPIED

:

- Press and hold on each file;
- Check all Permitions on the drop down menu;
- After changes were made save and exit;
- Reboot.

try enter on xrec

Just start all over with flashtool it will work then.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark Nightmare:
Go to settings then applications, then development, check debug mode.

Start flash tool on your pc and connect the phone

IF the phone is rooted, it should be recognized by flash tool

On flash tool click ask root perm, look at your phone screen, superuser should pop up asking if to give permission, simply choose allow.

Then click recovery on flash tool and wait a sec....

should pop up asking which gingerbread version to use. choose 0.3GB, since its gb version you have.

when you're ready to use xrecovery, restart the phone

as soon as the phone comes on and the first sony ericsson name comes up, keep pressing the back button, xrecovery will come up.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zm4:
i did both kernel things...but the thing is it won't recognize my device as a rooted device...i have superuser and I have used apps that require root...so i guess the problem is well idk...and thats what i need help with sorting out.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemot:
1. Install busybox from market (xrec needs busybox)

2. Give root explorer root acces and mount /system writeable (look in settings of your file explorer)

3. Copy files to right place:

chargemon to /system/bin

charger to /system/bin

sh to /system/xbin

xrecovery.tar to /system/xbin

4. Give above files the right permissions (long touch on file and choose property option):

user > read, write, execute

other > read, execute

group > read, execute

[HTC Sensation] alyoder:
Got the sensation not too long ago. All of the sudden yesterday I received VM and after checking it and deleting it the voicemail notification icon would not go away from the notification bar.

I've cleared out everything in voicemail, rebooted - it wont' go away.

Anyone else have this problem?

I did a search and there was on hit for this happening but it was with a different phone and different carrier.
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:

[HTC Sensation] h4cks4w:
"settings > call > clear voicemail notification" works for me to clear the voicemail indicator, but the indicator gets stuck every time I get a new voicemail. I can always go and clear it via this menu, but it does not go away itself. Also, I've seen at least once now when I get a voicemail, but no indicator.

Any thoughts?

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferdi1928:
hi there,

I've tried some DFT Mango versions (7713, 7714) on my HSPL HD7 and they're both working great. Altough they're listed as unlocked, I can't install homebrew Apps. Error notifications like Tom XAP Installer's "Please make sure your phone was unlocked!" appear ;)

There are a plenty of comments confirming the functionality of those Rom's, but in my case it doesn't work. Anyone out there having the same issues (and solutions) ;) ?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhn:
The roms are unlocked. Try using Xapdeployx or Application deployment(Windows phone developer tools) for sideloading apps. Tom's xap installer no longer works with mango roms :)
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferdi1928:
Thank you for your answer :)

I've tried Xapdeployx and Application deployment, but they both tell me, my phone is locked. I'll look that up, too, but perhaps you can help me one more time? ;)
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferdi1928:
I worked it out now. I downgraded from 7714 to 7713 again and tried XAPDeployX once more. Fortunately, it installs all my apps without any error :) thanks

My device is running Mango per the update thread that is knocking around... via Zune 4.8 beta etc rather than flashing a new ROM.

What ROM's can I use with what KERNEL's? What KERNEL's can I use with that ROM's? Are they all interchangeable? THANKS!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
There are generally 3 different base roms that you'll find people using here:

1) 2.2.2 Froyo based

2) 2.3.3 OTA Gingerbread based

3) 2.3.4/2.3.5 AOSP CyanogenMod (CM7) based

In the development section, you'll see that both the roms and the kernels will have the appropriate base in the title, indicated by either the version number (ie: 2.3.3 or 2.3.5), or the name of the rom (ie: CM7/Trigger, or OTA/Weapon, etc).

Hope this helps.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] EugeneKim:
Hello everyone! I got a Samsung Infuse bout 2 weeks ago and have noticed it does get significantly warm to the touch once in a while. The temperature ranges from around 80 to even 120 degrees Fahrenheit! Just curious to know if going that high is normal especially with the super amoled plus display. I'm running Infuse v2 and it seem that the heat does not come from the battery. Will 120 degrees F wear down the Li battery? I also use a Ballistic case which is a pretty thick case with silicon inner shell and then a more plastic outer one. Would that trap hat inside the phone? All responses are extremely appreciated! :)

I have casually tried both iPhone 4 and iPads and never received the impression that they were better spec-ed than the latest Android or even Windows equivalents. Now that Apple is at war with basically anyone who isn't them in tech world, I think they will consistently lose any raw horsepower race (Samsung may not want to sell to them anymore for one). Maybe they will retain an edge in usability for some people, but they are the design kings, as long as you don't despise iTunes like I do, and price gouging.

[Epic 4G General] kaotikevo:
Looks like I finally made up my mind about what my next phone is going to be. Iphone 5 is it. I was gonna get the Epic Touch but quickly remembered the fact that my phone is on 2.2.1 in an era where Android is at 2.3.6, and how frustrating the Gingerbread leaks have been so far. Not to forget the fact that Samsung doesn't even have the courtesy to share their source code or drivers so that we can create our own up to date roms. I'm never dealing with Samsung again. It's been a nightmare.
[Epic 4G General] Fatonuseni:
Yeah, Samsung leaves a bad taste in your mouth about updates.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
As oppsed to how open apple is with their source code and drivers???
[Epic 4G General] kaotikevo:
As opposed to how up to date Apple keeps their phones. With Apple you don't even have to worry about late updates. Ios frees you from that hassle. You have great, fast, stable, low latency audio software, and you can jailbreak your phone and customize it as much as Android in terms of appearance and functionality. Plus you have much more games and apps. Can't lose.

From Sprint's side there is nothing official about the phone. All we're told to say is that it's a rumor. The number of calls we are getting at my store now are getting pretty annoying. Hopefully, it leads to new customers.
[Epic 4G General] kaotikevo:
I'm well aware of that. 2.3.4 is the latest for all non Nexus S phones of significance. I just threw that out there to show how behind Samsung is on updates. Samsung will never get their act together on American carrier locked phones. HTC can provide quick updates, so it's more than just the carriers as a roadblock to timely updates. Samsung really drags their feet with Americans. With Samsung, buying their unlocked phones is the safest route if people seek faster updates.

[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Hmm...that's a good point, but aren't all the HTC updates extremely buggy and then require fixes within the first month? What is it that allows Samsung to update the Nexus so easily here in USA and not all the Galaxy S series? Is it the bloatware that slows down the other updates or hardware compatibility? Lots of Point/Counterpoints to all of this. It seems every phone that gets Gingerbread early has or had the random reboot problem. It took months to fix that in the HTC Thunderbolt. Are they just trying to be careful learning from these past mistakes?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Quick question...will the Iphone 5 actually be able to make phone calls or will it be just a mini-ipad still...LOL?
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
This my take..

If you unwilling to mod your phone, get the already behind the times iPhone 5

If you don't care about having the best hardware around, get an iPhone

If you don't care to customize your phone to any real extent, get a iPhone

If you want to pay out the a$$ for every little thing, get an iPhone

If you don't care about speeds above the last gen 3G, get an iPhone

On the other hand, if you want the best hw available, want to fully customize your phone, want the majority of your apps for free, and the latest and fastest updates around, get the upcoming Nexus Prime

The only people that should get the new iPhone 5, is noobs who can't do even basic customizations and updates, who are happy using a phone that is second tier even before it is released, and are happy with remaining on a closed platform that is being left behind in just about every aspect.

Iphone is a fad.

Also, in my opinion, it is for girls.
[Epic 4G General] kaotikevo:
I don't own an iPhone, but I know many people that do and I have to concede to the fact that iPhone runs faster and smoother than just about any Android phone, and with less power. Specs mean next to nothing when the software isn't optimized to take advantage of the hardware. Every Android phone I've used has had lag, no matter what the processor was clocked at or how many cores. Reason being Android lacks graphics acceleration. The next version might correct that based on some rumors I've heard.

Also, of you jailbreak your iPhone it can be as heavily customized as Android. In fact, it might be possible to install Android on your iPhone. Iphone also has apps Android can't even handle. For example Nanostudio, FL Studio Mobile, and many other music production apps that Android at this point can only dream of running due to terribly high audio latency. That's one thing I envy about iPhone owners. They have low latency audio software.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
The key point is "just about", as when you talk about a vs iPhone view, you hold it up to the "best" android phone each carrier has to offer

When you do this, the iPhone's hw & sw just doesn't measure up, and is shown to be playing catch up, where before it was the top of both. Yet now...

The iPhone does not run flash

The iPhone doesn't do 4G/LTE

The iPhone can't replace the battery

The iPhone doesn't do SD Cards

This alone drops it it off the top tier phone level, but there is more, lots more.

In fact, the only arguement I have seen put forth for the iPhone, is its smoothness.

And even that is subjective.

I have a Epic, a known basterd child phone, but when compared to my buddies iPhone 4, it has always rocked it better. Even the parts that ground my gears for being missing (I'm looking at u TV Out), was still he dream of

Sure the iPhone 5 will be the best iPhone ever.

The difference is, being the best iPhone no longer means you are the best phone.

But then, IMO, anyone wanting an iPhone, deserves one

<evil grin>

My epic has its own gpu

If you jailbreak your iPhone, might as well be running Android. ROFL!

[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
If Android (insofar as the Epic) lacks graphics accel. then I find the amazing 3D games a real head-scratcher. But, if you're referring to just the OS, I find performance to be overall very smooth on Froyo and likely to be smoother yet on Ginger. However I would concede your point on audio, and I hope GB's audio performance is better too. The Apple tradeoffs for minor performance improvements in a few areas though are just IMO not worth it.
[Epic 4G General] thronnos:
HTC just did the beats thing audio will get better, plus with more dual core phones coming out and now 3D plus with ICS around the corner... I'm gonna stick with Android... Plus google buying motorola? Apple who?
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Lol won't have to worry about dual-core phones soon. Tegra 3 is to unveil quad-core phones early 2012, and quad-core tablets this fall. ;)

Anyway, what people don't seem to realize is a lot of people get the iPhone simply because it's the "iPhone". I'm sure more than 70% of iPhone consumers got the phone because of that reason. Because they know they will get a phone with apps, social networking, etc. It's just mainstream and mass advertising.

The reason why android seems to fall behind at times is because android has hundreds of phones, and their flagship phone is not advertised as well as the iPhone is.

From a tech standpoint, however, android is way ahead of the iPhone's technology since we can always produce multiple phones a year that keep getting better and better, while the iPhone only upgrades itself once a year. I can guarantee everyone here android will always have the better specs. Especially since they are the first OS to get quad-core technology, along with a 720p display, and more.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of ignorance in the iPhone community. When I show off my Samsung Epic, I was able to convince 3 people to get an Android phone over the iPhone. Some, still get the iPhone, even though they know what they are missing.

Whenever I think of the android vs iPhone wars, this is the first thing that comes to my head:
