[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr Woolf:
No problems here - 3 devices checked. Is this just some spurious unresearched slur because it doesn't work on your phone????

If so, please change thread title to "is new Facebook app working on your GB rom?"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] radeon_x:
Weird. My buddy has the same problem as me, so I thought for sure it's universal. We're both on a variant of the same ROM though so maybe there is a specific issue to our software...

The problem is when refreshing (via the new pulldown mechanism or the menu) or changing to a different section. The display area essentially gets shrunken to about 1/10th the screen height.

Guess I'll have to do some more investigation. Sorry for the alarm.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] legiong:
Is that stock JVR?

It looks modded to me, or is that just a different launcher you're using?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] iNeri:
No problems at all here on JVR odexed simplicity ROM and semaphore 1.6

facebook app works very good
[Galaxy S I9000 General] radeon_x:
It's just GO Launcher. Otherwise odexed JVR. Kernel is TalonSH but I flashed to stock for pure curiosity and it didn't fix it, obviously.

This problem is driving me nuts – the only thing I haven't done is a full wipe. I can't believe no one else has the same issue...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mchud:
Dont worry, you're not insane. Seeing the same issue here. Box-stock JVR.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] legiong:
I just got an update for the facebook app, maybe the problem was more wide-spread.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] radeon_x:
Even after this morning's update the problem is still there for me.

The weird part is, on the very FIRST run on the app - if you've cleared the data and are signing in - the problem is NOT present on the initial News Feed view.

As soon as I close that view and restart the app, the problem is back.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
I wanted to take advantage of the buy up program since im 10 months from my full upgrade. I called and the person on the phone the first time said he has never heard if it and that I don't know what im talking about. I called back and the second person said they stopped it in July. Had anyone done this recently? Rhis is where u pay 75$ and have your upgrade reset. Thanks. I really want this epic touch.

[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Damn that sucks if its true..

Anybody have that number that was going around a little while ago that was a direct line to the department of sprint that handled upgrades? I lost the thread..
[Epic 4G General] BigJPNut:
They stopped that promotion. They have turned many xda members down since including myself. There is a thread on this but I cant find it. So yea....
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Found the thread.

http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1093232.html

Try the number in the first post and let me know how it works for you man.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, I think they are only offering $75 off the price of the phone now. I couldn't get anything more than that on my Epic line.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
That number in the post is the number that I called.

"The greatest respect you can earn is self respect" Louie Simmons
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Ah I see.

Did you ask to have your upgrade date moved up or did yyou just ask about the buy-up program?

Most the people in that thread said they wanted their upgrade manually overwritten and they did it without charging anything. Try asking that?
[Epic 4G General] stormglove:
Wow, this ridiculous if its true. First I get denied my one year upgrade when they switched that and now they say I Cliff do this and they canx it. I'll be calling layer today to ask about it . He's the number I call, I'm not sure if its the sane. 877-775-4886

Last time I talked to them it was in august so in not sure his the program stopped in july and they told me I could do this.
[Epic 4G General] njfoses:
They are not moving upgrade dates at all anymore. If you get your upgrade date actually moved consider yourself very fortunate!
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Yeah its bull****. Also the 30 day trial period is being moved to 14 days effective the 16th. Sprint is turning to into just like all the other carriers. Anybody have any ideas hiw to get the Epic Touch cheaper that 500 bucks? I thought about adding another line but that's 20 bucks more a month.

"The greatest respect you can earn is self respect" Louie Simmons
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Dont give them tje satisfaction bro
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
I spoke to them in July and they promised me full upgrade on both lines but i had to wait until sept 3rd (my 1yr anniversary)..

I called 17 days before my 12 month anniversary date to see if I could get it bumped up a couple weeks and went through all sorts of drama.. they explained that the early upgrade was only for 1 line under the old premier perks, and that there was no buy up program any more.. i spoke to 8 different people during 3 separate phone calls.. the call that got me what i wanted was when i called to get shipping labels to return my airave.. then they knew i was serious... after another hour during that call, they agreed to allow me to buy up 2 lines on my account for $75/ea.

the only reason they allowed it was because they noted on my account that they would on such and such date (and i believe the note was for only the primary line, not 2 :p ) .. took a long struggle to get it.. but I got it .. doubt it will work any longer though
[Epic 4G General] Heffboom.Konijn:
I can also confirm this is no longer in effect.

i walked into two local phoenix stores, after speaking with about 2 reps at each store. both said they have never heard of such a program or will ever be one.

sounds odd to me
[Epic 4G General] warrior420:
The guy on the phone from that number yesterday told me i could get $150 for my Epic with a trade in credit towards the Touch.
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
Only options I've found so far:

1. Change your plan so it is Gold Premier for a couple months. Then take the 1 year upgrade and change your plan back to whatever you want.

2. Cancel service with no ETF by the end of the month (due to contract changes which happened last week), port your number out for 45 days, then start a new account.

Both are either too much work or too much money for me, but maybe they will work for you.
[Epic 4G General] edonnelly:
$20? I thought it would be $30: $19.99 + the glorious $10/month mandatory "premium data" plan.
[Epic 4G General] Silent25r:
I fought hard for this and finally got it. Took me 3 hours.
[Epic 4G General] formula84:
What was your angle? How long have you been with them, how much is your monthly bill, how much longer did you have before you hit your 22 month mark?

Haven't seen a post about this for our Bionic yet, is it going to be possible? or do we need to by that stupid ugly box lol.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TweakMyDevice:
Ditto and...

My hope is to see Webtop stream over WiFi using the DLNA protocol. That way we could use the Bionic's screen as the mouse/keyboard and not have to lug around extra hardware.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] stoffelck:
boo on the webtop adapter

I bought one. excited1 get it plugged up change resolution to the highest it goes AND bam! 55 inches of glorious BIONIC in my living room. It was really impressive because i was sitting underneath it.

OK so plugged in hdmi, now the charger going to watch me some videos surf me some web properly LOW MEMORY LOW MEMORY ok boo

f course the whole time I am back and forth to laptop sitting behind me.

Then I tried to play some tunes through TV/surround NOPE only plays through phone speaker unless you set resolution to 720... on and on and on...

Just isnt worth it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] v1r7u41:
It hasn't changed too much from the atrix although i think it is built off a newer version of ubuntu cuz the xorg is definetly newer. Unfortunately lxterminal is pointing to xterm which only has a symbolic link to what they must have taking out when they cleaned up. Also 1080p is listed as a mode but xrandr doesn't set it right. Dpkg, apt, make, install, and other build tools are there. I am trying to be careful though so progress will be slow til we can get a fast boot sbf plus some koush clockwork magic. I will keep you posted if i find anything.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Jewremy:
Hey guys. I'm working on porting webtop to the Droid3. Can any of you help out? Need to be rooted.

If you could send/post a dump of /osh, pastebin of ls -l -a /osh (for permissions), dump of /system and pastebins of ls -l -a /system/bin and /system/xbin, that would be amazing. PM me if you need.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilshant:
Hi Guys,

I recently purchased a Motorola Atrix 4G from ebay and the only information the seller had mentioned is that it is unlocked with Android 2.2.

My questions are:

- How do I find out if the bootloader is unlocked?

- How do I find out if the phone is rooted?

- Can the phone be SIM unlocked using a unlock code and the bootloader still remain locked?

- Can the phone be SIM unlocked using a unlock code and the phone remain unrooted?

- If the phone is SIM unlocked but bootloader locked, can I use the official gingerbread update of Motorola? Will this result in a bricked phone? If not will it lock my phone again after the official upgrade?

- If the phone is SIM unlocked and bootloader unlocked, can I use the official gingerbread update of Motorola? Will this result in a bricked phone? If not will it lock my phone again after the official upgrade?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
These answers are in a myriad of threads. One i answered specifically yesterday.

I voided my warranty and your mum.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KAwAtA:
1) Bootloader is unlocked if you turn on screen (see the motorola logo) and top left says "Unlocked"

2) If you see it's unlocked at the top left, it's most likely rooted. Or you check things like Superuser and run adb commands like "adb shell" then "su"

- I think there's also an app on the market to check

3) Yes it can

4) Yes it can

5) You probably could and no, it wouldn't sim lock your phone again

6) You'll have to wait for someone else for a better answer with this. I would highly doubt it'd brick your phone but after reading around... it could brick it. I highly doubt it'd relock your bootloader though!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilshant:
Thanks KAwAtA!

Thanks KAwAtA for your kind reply :) I am a total noob and I'm a bit afraid to install custom ROMs with all these terminal commands and software :D but I've gotta start somewhere :)

i rooted as soon as it was possibable and unlocked as soon as posible and started running roms of GB but after running home base #2 ext 4 had some problems with pc reading phone sodid full driver uninstall then reinstalled from ground up then updated moto helper i allowed moto helper to update and it updated my atrix to stock GB i lost unlock and root rebooted many to be sure never seen unlock on screen and root checker said no root access so im pretty sure it relocked my bootloader so i reunlocked and rooted and now runing roms agin...also when i went into fastboot /android recovey it did not work just got the triangle so im sure it relocked my phone ,but like i say im all good now ,igot this phone the day it came out and only softbricked tw times
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilshant:
Thanks!

Thanks rexamillion59! I read some posts in this forum and it seems that if you only do a SIM unlock, it will stay SIM unlocked forever even after we meddle with our phones :D

So hopefully when I power up my phone, it wont have the unlocked text on the top left hand corner (meaning bootloader unlocked). This is because I prefer the stock GB update for my new Atrix as I am a noob! :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rexamillion59:
i thought it was cool cause i i got a true clean reinstall to do with what i wish..maybe MOTO did it so they dont have to replace so many phones,who knows
[Nexus S General] serious7:
I just went through a second Nexus S and the GPS does NOT lock when I am in a car. When it does lock, the accuracy is so poor that navigation is completely impossible. I have compared the GPS with my Xperia X10 and a HTC magic and both phones have a better accuracy than the Nexus S. What is going on? Please help I don't know what to do.

I am on Wind Mobile in Canada.
[Nexus S General] rican408:
turn wifi on maybe will help. but ive noticed its just a week radio all around. from wifi, 4g, 3g, gps.... all week. i have a bunch of evos and droidxs to compare with...
[Nexus S General] derekwilkinson:
I know this might be a stupid question, but do you have the tower assisted gps or the actual gps on?
[Nexus S General] MerwinG:
Try other gps software like sygic or navigon
[Nexus S General] serious7:
Yes I do. I have it on. The thing is when I am not moving it locks on. When I start to move in a vehicle, it will frequently lose the lock on gps. I've tried using GPS software.
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Is the phone under the windshield? remember GPS requires inline sight to a satellite, so if the metal roof of your car is blocking the signal it will fade in/out.
[Nexus S General] X1111:
i often have GPS problem with satt locking too

do you guys think it might be a hardware problem in some phone series ?
[Nexus S General] serious7:
I've tried everything. I tried walking and that doesn't work. This is ridiculous like I said I've compared it to my xperia and htc magic and both of them lock on in all situations. My accuraccy goes to only 30 feet. With HTC magic I get accuracy of ~6 feet. Is this normal or is this a defect?
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Try the app GPS status from the market. Press menu go to tools and agps. There is an option to download latest GPS information. That should help.
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Maybe try *#*#gpsclrx#*#* from dialer to clear some conflicting info from gps data

Turn on gps before doing this
[Nexus S General] X1111:
i have this bad problem too ,that bothers me so much ,since i bought my NS

do you mean "AGPS update" option through settings ?

i turned it on and tried that code but no message appears , is that true ?

====================

EDIT :

whoooooo , that was so exciting :eek:

after a month i'm testing less one minute locking to sats :p

in fact it became much faster than before but the signal strength is low :cool:

and acuuracy and error shows near 100-120 feet in "GPS Test"

how can i improve it guys please ?

btw ,thanks alot both of you :)
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
Menu button>tools>manage A-GPS state. Click reset then download. Sorry I was doing it by memory :)
[Nexus S General] X1111:
i use new 1.2.4 free one and there's not tools section in menu :D

i think it must be "menu -> clear AGPS" and then "Update AGPS"

i'd done this procedure before but didn't know must use wifi or etc for downloading ;)

thanks anyway , you helped me a lot... :)
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
It would help if you were using the right app :).

Download GPS Status from:

http://market.android.com/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2
[Nexus S General] X1111:
lool sorry , i was talking about GPS test :D , i do clearing also downloading by that

but i alway use "GPS Status & Toolbox" for fixing beacause i thinks it's the fastest

i already did the same mistake about downloading the updates with this too

though my GPS now is much better than before that fixes to 5 or more sats in under 0.5 minutes

do you think it needs to use GPS Status to update again ?

thank you...
[Nexus S General] X1111:
fantastic result after 30-45 seconds in an open area :

amount of fixed sats and accuracy are amazing now for me

but after wiping the rom it seems must do the procedure again...
[Nexus S General] Rem3Dy:
I believe wiping for a rom install will erase the AGPS data. Do it once and after an install and you should be good.

Glad you got it working :)
[Nexus S General] dwreck420:
ns4g still screwed on gps

:confused:I have tried everything from the apps, to roms, to kernels, to *#*#gpsclrx#*#* to "fixes" (flashable CWM zips, like h3llstorm), to the official OTA, and they never work for me. location based services like checking in work fine, but anything to do with navigation while being in the car, never works. it drops almost methodically, says searching for gps, has me in neighborhoods beside highways when im on highways, and it is just generally making me very sad. i consider myself an android power user, and have never been stumped like this before. is it my actual phone? the model of phone? samsung? sprint? am i just crazy? :confused:
[Nexus S General] shahravi94:
i had the exact same issue after samsung fixed my broken power button. The phone would rarely get a gps lock and if it did the lock lasted for about a second. Navigation was impossible. I called them and they had me ship it in. They repaired it and i should be getting it back by monday. I will report back on if it is fixed.
[Nexus S General] evcz:
Well... Let us know if they will fix the compass too ;-)
[Nexus S General] shahravi94:
got the phone back today. gps and compass are working fine. they swapped out the chip i think
[Nexus S General] cøm3tx:
A friend of mine got a serious problem with the GPS, and we found out that the problem was with the back cover. So if happens to someone else, try changing the back cover (if one of your friends has a Nexus S too). Hope it helps :rolleyes:
[Nexus S General] Sputnikk23:
Umm... where is there an option for "tower assited" gps and "regular" gps?

[Epic 4G Apps] formula84:
I like this better than colorize widgets (pretty much same thing) the thing I like better about this set its that it also works with SPB mobile shell which does not support scrollable widgets.
[Epic 4G Apps] shane6374:
That's why I paid for it. Spb mobile shell is nice, and this allows scrolling of sorts on it.

[Epic 4G Apps] xopher.hunter:
Sorry to hijack thread but how's spb mobile shell I have been on the fence for buying it but 15 dollars seems a bit much for a launcher

Sent from my spare Droid since my epic got jacked. Currently waiting on a guy to sell me his when his phone gets shipped
[Epic 4G Apps] formula84:
I paid the $15 for it just because I saw it as having potential. They just released an update yesterday. I have been running for a few days since switching back to EC05...could not deal with GPS and Reboot issues.

So far the update seems smoother, they said they improved memory management... keep in mind that prior it was always using 80+ megs of ram.

My only grip with it was scrollable widgets and slow load time, now with this widget pack I dont care, but the load time still sucks.
[Epic 4G Apps] xopher.hunter:
Thanks that's all I needed to hear, I might buy it when I get my hands on another epic (hopefully by next week). I can't live without my scrollable twitter widget and fb widget on launcher pro but its getting old I want something cool and new lol.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TECK:
Can anyone confirm if they see both WL0 and WL1 channels on their phone?

On my Tab 10.1, I see both channels, but on S2 I only get the WL0. These are the settings I have in DD-WRT:

With the UGKG2 firmware, it can detect both channels. Once I use the XXKI3 firmware, I can only connect through WL0 channel. If you know a fix, please let me know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chargen2:
Through a few firmware upgrades I've lost the ability to connect to my 802.11n 5GHz network. I used that setup as it had the fewest problems with interference. I'd dearly love to get it back! Just flashed to the XWKI8 firmware, but still can't see a 5GHz network (I have not done a factory reset - want to try the phone first to see if I have any issues - prefer not to have to set things up again).

If anyone knows how to fix just this particular issue I'd love to know!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chargen2:

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adotkdotjh:
yeah same here. I was using 5ghz band with stock firmware (Bell stock), and once I upgraded to KI3 and KI4, the 5ghz band wasn't visible anymore...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaben:
Try setting your router to use the lower 5GHz group of channels. That's the only way mine works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chargen2:
Hrmmm... unfortunately my Apple airport extreme doesn't let me tinker with the channels used in the 5GHz range. I've requested a new wireless router for Xmas - hopefully I can get it working then without a full sgs2 data wipe.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chargen2:
Finally! A solution for my particular situation.

I had tried flashing a different modem (XXKI4) to see if this might change the situation, but no luck.

I then did some further reading about changing the channel in the Airport utility for my first-gen Airport Extreme. Since the only selection visible was 'Automatic' I wasn't able to change it. However, holding down the option key when clicking that menu allows a full list of channels to be displayed!

I chose channel 36 and it's now visible (and connected) on my SGS2!

Yay!
