[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bitbang3r:
You guys are asking Sprint/Samsung the wrong question, and leaving them a loophole big enough to drive a truck through.

"compatible" legally means "able to work as originally intended" -- meaning EVDO rev.A

The specific question you need to ask is, "Will an E4GT -- with appropriate software -- be able to *take full advantage* of EVDO rev.B when/if Sprint deploys it? Specifically, will it establish an EVDO rev.B data connection and enjoy the full benefits of it? Or will it merely connect in some "compatibility" mode that limits its performance to that of EVDO rev.A?"

We all know any rev.A phone will be "compatible" and "work"... the hand-wringing is over whether or not it will *benefit from* and *take full advantage of* rev.B

The devil's in the details. I can almost guarantee you'll never get a straight answer to this question, unless the answer is 'no' -- it leaves them with zero wiggle room to be vague & gloss over the specific meaning of 'compatible'

I posted this in the other EVDO REVB thread as well but in case you aren't following that one, here is the chat I just did with Sprint:

3:16:46 PM : Connected to sprint.ehosts.net

3:16:46 PM : Session ID: 3770313

3:16:46 PM : Jim Fenton: Initial Question/Comment: As we now have only a 14 day window for returns, I have a question which I need answered. Is the Epic Touch 4G able to fully utilize EVDO REV B with all of it's benefits? It appears that the Qualcomm chip in this device is an older chip and the specifications do not show it being able to supprt EVDO REV B. Could you get me a definitive answer please?

3:16:56 PM : Joan P has joined this session!

3:16:56 PM : Connected with Joan P. Your Reference Number for this chat session is 3770313.

3:16:56 PM : Thank you for contacting Sprint. My name is Joan P.

3:17:07 PM : Jim Fenton: Howdy Joan :)

3:17:26 PM : Joan P: Hi Jim

3:17:26 PM : Joan P: I am happy to assist you with locating that information.

3:17:31 PM : Joan P: Please hold a moment while I access your account.

3:17:36 PM : Jim Fenton: No problem

3:19:26 PM : Joan P: Thanks for waiting.

3:19:50 PM : Jim Fenton: Certainly

3:22:11 PM : Joan P: As per the status of the phone that we have:

3:22:56 PM : Joan P: The phone has the following Processor/Chipset: Samsung Exynos™ 1.2GHz dual-core processor / S5PC210 that will support (EVDO Rev A.)

3:23:36 PM : Joan P: That is the 3G download speed and peak download speed will be 3.1 mbps.

3:23:45 PM : Jim Fenton: So you have no indication that it can utilize EVDO REV B?

3:24:46 PM : Joan P: There is no update regarding the REV B. However, I am sure about the REV A and that is the latest update regarding the phone that I have to share with you.

3:25:28 PM : Jim Fenton: I'm not looking for any information regarding updates and I appreciate the fact that you folks can't give them out till they become reality anyway.

3:25:47 PM : Jim Fenton: What I really need to know is if the phone has the hardware to support EVDO REV B?

3:27:16 PM : Joan P: No, the phone is not with the hardware configuration that will support REV B.

3:27:28 PM : Jim Fenton: OK Joan...

3:27:35 PM : Jim Fenton: Thanks for the information.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] willysp:
Agreed that level 1 CSR's responses to technical questions like rev B are entirely a waste of time to both the CSR and those who are talking to the CSR. Your average CSR has a high school education, is not paid a lot, and has $ incentives to complete calls quickly. They are clerks.

When your CSR "talks to a supervisor" for 5 minutes, he/she continues to handle a couple of new calls during that time, and that 5 minutes is basically his/her supervisor spending 30 seconds time 10 customers confirming the scripted responses for multiple CSR's.

I've worked with several call centers - they're all the same.

You're all wasting your time talking to Level 1 CSRs. Level 2 CSRs have about the same amount of tech knowledge as the average poster in XDA today - not a tremendous amount (sad, but true). Level 3 CSR's have about the amount of tech expertise of an average XDA poster 2 or 3 years ago - i.e. quite a lot; they are the ones you want to talk to but it's tough getting to them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
I think the CSRs just tell half the people yes and half the people no, that way they are right at least half the time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Omg seriously what is wrong with y'all? Sprint is turning on 1x Advanced which will allow simultaneous usage of voice and data. EvDo Rev. B is not in Sprint's plans at all

Seriously we only have a few days to find out what's what. It's just blind arguments being stirred up.

My Personal opinion: They won't but I seriously want them to. We could all benefit from it. Rev. B phone or not.

On Rev. A we all should be averaging 2.2 to 2.8Mbps & topping out at 3.1Mbps, from what I've read it seems the average is 800Kbps.

Rev. B should average an est. 8-12Mbps down (maybe 5-9Mbps after the iPhone drops (blindly guessing) & top out at 14Mbps down.

The iPhone #/_ is going to crush the 3G network within months. I seriously doubt Network Vision will do anything major for the existing 3G network in the long term as it will the 4G network.

The steps for 1x-Advanced are in-line with the EV-DO Rev .B upgrade or at least it's what the CDMA2000 video suggests.

I've been disappointed before & I'm preparing for it now. :rolleyes:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
Lets give foowhat a break guys. Obviously English is not his primary language as he's from Indonesia.

Somehow he managed to get several of his phones on Rev. B

Foowhat in order for images to show click on the icon that looks like this & insert your link or enclose your link between this code .

Example:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Getting a phone with hardware that supports Rev B (like the HTC models) to be configured for Rev B is less impressive than getting a phone whose hardware cannot support Rev B to actually use Rev B.

I suggest the OP change his tutorial to actually use the Epic 4G Touch rather than an HTC phone, post screen shots of the diagnostics showing that a Rev B connection has been established, and finally to do a speed test that shows Rev B speeds with the 3 bonded channels and/or QAM-64 modulation.

Setting a NVRAM flag to specify Rev B is not necessarily the same as getting the hardware to use Rev B. In particular if the hardware is incapable of that function, it won't be using Rev B.

Post some stuff quick anywhere so you can enlighten us.... this is interesting stuff even if most of it wont work for us
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
All qsc/qsd do is set nvram parameters.

If I change the processor ID of a CPU to be something else, that doesn't make the CPU something else.

QSC6085 modem chipset doesn't support Rev B. If you set the nvram to specify Rev B, that isn't going to magically cause the chipset to support Rev B.

Thanks Infamous, but I searched that thread first, and since I was a newb with less then 10, I couldn't post over there.

I'm pretty sure dock is missing because when I plug phone into dock in car, it does not switch to car dock mode like it use to on Mik's Rom.

Is it something I can download from market?? or an apk I can flash to phone??

Thanks for all the help you give to everyone!

ABOVE IS A LINK

This is what is what's on the ROM I'm actually running CM7 to test something out for a buddy of mine so I'm not quite sure exactly what's running on FINAL but give it a try if not I'll flash back to FINAL and try something else

Plugging into car does nothing but charge the phone. Usually, it switches phone to landscape mode, turns speaker on, and shows navigation,dialer, and other

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svenerator:
Im sorry if this is such a nooby question but on some custom roms it recommends to wipe /system. What does this do? And what do you lose? When I usually go to another rom I wipe user data, cache, dalvik cache and battery stats. I never had any problems by doing so. In my case I never saw where to wipe /system I found out it was under mounts and storage in recovery a few days ago.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
reset to factory status ands deletes all contacts, custom apps and any other personal information on the phone.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
This is wrong....

The /system partiton is where Android itself gets stored. As in the system apps and framework. It is recommened to wipe it when changing to a *non-wipe* firmware just in case some files are different and get left over from the previous rom.

not wiping before installing a new rom usually results to bootloops.

i see to it i wipe before installing another rom (unless i'm installing a newer version of the existing rom)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] help me a noob:
in advanced wipe in twrp what does wiping system but keeping data,cache,and internal storage do ? will i keep my apps and data?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
As was posted earlier in the thread, wiping system basically wipes the rom/os and system settings. Your user data, apps, pictures will not be wiped. If you rebooted after wiping system the phone will not work, however you could wipe system then flash an update of the same rom and reboot and you should be fine(depending on the changes between rom versions). This is basically referred to as dirty flashing. FYI, most custom roms have a script which wipes system, cache and dalvik/art cache automatically preserving only /data(user apps and data)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RPG123:
I've had this problem for about a week now. For some reason, no matter what text message app I use, non of my notifications will vibrate. I've uninstalled every app I installed since it started happening, but no luck. I don't know what's causing it! A few days ago notifications returned back to normal, but then I got a text today that didn't vibrate.

Also, Settings > Sound > Vibrate is set to always, both in the general settings and in Go SMS, but it doesn't vibrate in either silent or ringing mode.

Info:

Build: Cognition 4.5.3

Stock firmware

Thanks for your help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoboarder071:
I'm having the same problem. Happened out of nowhere and is starting to drive me crazy. I didn't change any settings and all vibration/notification settings for my phone and my texting app are set properly. It has to be something with the system because my volume control app showed that vibration was off for all notifications even tho it was turned on in settings. I uninstalled that app...still no luck :confused:

Anyone have a suggestion?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Were you able to turn it back on in the volume app? I know Sound Manager will let you toggle it. I have had this issue in the past as well; I turned it back on with Sound Manager and it worked properly afterward. In that program, hit menu and there's a vibration settings menu.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
Don't accept any update if you're rooted

We're comin from a pure power source.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
As the previous poster said, do not accept the update. I turned of the checking for the updates in settings.

If you accept an OTA update you could lose root or end up with unpredictable results.

If there is a newer version than what you have and you want to remain stock you should be able to find that version (rooted) in the development forum. I believe this is the latest OTA update that has been rooted.

What version do you have? What version did the OTA update indicate?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rose2jam:
it was updating from 4.24 to 4.53. Thank you the only reason im still on root b/c i wanted to do lots of reading before i switch roms there's a lot diff roms here im coming from a sgs4g didn't have nearly as much roms and diff kernels so crazy. what is in the update to even bother updating to it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m20120:
I have been rooted since I got my Evo but actually stayed at 3.70 stock until a couple of months ago. I did not want to jump to Gingerbread until some of the issues were worked out (compass, voice to text not working in noisy environments). The wife was running 4.24 when it came out and then 4.53. We have now both jumped to the MikG 2.52 ROM.

If you are wanting to remain stock there are some worthwhile updates in 4.53. You can see the release history here.

There are several variants of the 4.53 ROM in development that are rooted. Some are strictly stock minimal changes (for root) and others have some useful enhancements but still look stock.

Some choices:

Rooted 4.53 (Available as odexed or deodexed. I prefer the odexed roms since they are a bit faster)

Rooted 4.53 with memory mods and native screen shot

[Galaxy 3 General] mankokoma:
backup /data/wifi/bcm_supp.conf

after backing up (your stored passwords are in there) delete the file.

usually then it scans again for networks...

another possibility is, that you use a g3mod kernel for cm 6.2 for froyo - but as you just flashed a new ROM I don't believe that....

[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
I want to setup OpenVPN on my device, but the installer is saying that it needs a TAP/TUN module. After doing some research it looks like it's tun.ko that I'm looking for, but I'm not that famaliar with the android devices (this is my first droid, had it for about a month now) and would like some help or recommendations :)

I'm actually running an Bell branded XT860.
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
tun/tap is built in D3 stock kernel, so you need no module tun.ko.

Which OpenVPN Installer did you try? The app from the market? It worked fine for me, only shortcoming is the openvpn binary seems to have a bug on D3, the built-in route and ifconfig commands do not work. But no big deal for me, since I use a start script anyway and add these commands to this script.
[Motorola Droid 3] jimi5:
Can you elaborate how your using the startup scripts? I'm using OpenVPN on CM7 on another device and it works well. My D3 is getting shipped to me and I'd like to also get OpenVPN running on it.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
How detailled do you need it? I can show you what I did, but you need some Linux / OpenVPN skills to alter it for your needs. Unfortunately, I currently don't have the time to write a failsave HowTo. But if you have further questions, feel free to ask.

1. remount /system read-write

2. mkdir -p /system/scripts/openvpn and copy your OpenVPN configfiles there

3. Create script /system/scripts/ovpn.sh:

#! /system/bin/sh

openvpn --cd /system/scripts/openvpn --config openvpn.conf --daemon

sleep 1

ifconfig tun0 172.31.254.10 pointopoint 172.31.254.9

/system/sbin/route add -net 10.0.0.0/8 dev tun0

exit 0

4. Make a widget with app Script Manager

5. remount /system read-only

EDIT: What I missed to mention before: I had some MTU problemes. Configuring "mssfix 1200" solved it.
[Motorola Droid 3] rayn1988:
So let me get this right.

I have openvpn settings and the binary installed.

config files are in /sdcard/openvpn/

both the -> swissvpn.ovpn and ca.crt

openvpn binary is in /system/xbin/openvpn

I modified script in /system/scripts/openvpn to read

openvpn.conf to swissvpn.ovpn

--------------------------------------

#! /system/bin/sh

openvpn --cd /system/scripts/openvpn --config swissvpn.ovpn --daemon

sleep 1

ifconfig tun0 172.31.254.10 pointopoint 172.31.254.9

/system/sbin/route add -net 10.0.0.0/8 dev tun0

exit 0

-----------------------------------

saved to /system/scripts/ovpn.sh

Questions

1.) Do I need to point openvpn to the config files in /system/scripts/openvpn or /sdcard/openvpn for it to work?

2.)Will this finally fix the routing problem with the browser not tunneling properly?

3.)Do I need to issue "Load tun kernel module" in "openvpn settings" or is this already solved with the stock kernel?
