[Samsung Infuse 4G] dht2005:
I think it's mostly a hardware problem. The consensus among those who own the phone seems to be that wifi reception is average to poor.

I don't have the knowledge to be able to speak authoritatively, but I think software *can* have an impact.

With my particular Infuse, I have better reception with the new MIUI rom posted by Mikey than anything else I've tried (almost all of them). I get full reception - "excellent" - in locations where on any other rom I would have "fair" or "poor"...

I don't know if this makes sense but that is my experience.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] apallohadas:
While Strych is being rude (normal from his other posts) I have to agree that it might just be your situation.

My router is on the ground floor and I can use my wifi from the third floor in my house.

Then again I've used Wifi Analyzer (from the market) to test the channels and see what wans were overlapping mine and select one that was empty with good strength.

I also tend not to flash beta roms and then wonder why things aren't working as expected.

If you want help with your issue, you may want to post in the Q&A forum and describe what you're running, what problem you're having (specifically), and what you've done to test/fix the problem. Otherwise, if you're just ranting, I can understand that as well.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] iruleyounow:
Hmm well a lot of helpful tips. I will be purchasing a brand new router. The one I have is just a basic Linksys. So ill upgrade the next level up. Idk I've never been able to get great reception. But on the flipside Ive always used a basic router.

Infuse running infused v2.0.2.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
What were you on before? AT&T Froyo or Rogers Gingerbread?

One of the problems with Rogers Gingerbread were crappy TCP buffer settings - CM7 had the "better" AT&T settings for a long time until it was updated to the new UCKI3/I4 settings. This would explain faster WiFi performance regardless of signal quality.

Signal quality has always been fine for me. Froyo has some annoying power management issues where the wifi chipset basically dies and needs to be disabled/reenabled to reconnect (This is actually common across many devices with the BCM4330 - happens a lot on the Tab 10.1 too, and in that case it's sometimes so bad that it hoses up the lockscreen.), Gingerbread seems to have fixed the wifi-death issues on our devices.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bbayless:
Wifi Connection

I am pretty sure this wifi problem is def not your router. I use wifi here at work and home while both receptions are TERRIBLE. I think its hardware related because I have still yet to find anyone with a fix.

thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
I agree...both the thrill and my new phone have better reception and speeds than my infuse did.. same conditions/same router
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Truckerglenn:
Flash the latest modem.

Cranky...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Justinfedor:
I also have the same exact issue. I went thru 3 diff routers and no change. I also have an inspire and a iphone and they connect perfectly when mine cant. I live in a apartment and my router is in the same room. My wifes inspire works and mine dont. I know one of you are gonna say something like maybe you have too many things connected. Well that would be false. Both inspires had no problems but when i got my infuse it was just still 2 phones connected. Im calling samsung tomorrow to see what they have to say. I had alot of calls about the infuse and wifi problems also
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Justinfedor:
Oh and i was on stock with these issues and now rooted with the same issues
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
Can anyone help me out getting rid of blur in my phone or pointing me to a thread that has these instructions? Looking forward to having a blur-less DX2.....thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] dust.:
Eclipse! New version will be coming out soon. Blurless and simply wonderful :)
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
I've heard a lot about it.....the only thing is that I really don't wanna do a factory reset.....Im assuming there's no way around it eh?
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
Nope...if you start flashing roms and playing with this kinda stuff get used to factory resets...not trying to put you off but when you start getting into roms ect..the benefits outweigh having to redo your phone. Its a pain and it always seems like once you have your phone just the way you want it a new rom or something comes out. Just do a nandroid backup in recovery that way if you don't like it you can revert back to the way your phone was setup the way you had it. That way you always have a backup.
[Motorola Droid X2] RacerXFD:
Try titanium backup. It'll let you backup your settings before you wrote your phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] ilovesoad:
Don't listen to him. Never restore settings. This causes a lot of problems. You can do it for Apps, but not the Apps and their data. That sometimes causes problems too.
[Motorola Droid X2] rogergreen:
Eclipse is super clean and super fast.
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
Well there's very few things that im worried about losing but my calender (pure grid calender) is one that I don't wanna lose.....I emailed the dev and asked if there was a way to back it up so im waiting for an email back on that.....I have my apps backed up via titanium backup free and sticky notes I can just write down or something.....I ran minimal x immediately when it came out so I have some experience with Rom's but no where near calling myself a pro.....so with eclipse will I flash it the same way as I did with MinX?
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
I use Pure Grid Calendar... have for over a year.. across the D1 and the X2 I have flashed my phone so many times I couldnt even begin to make up a number.... NEVER.. lost my calendar info. Its synched into google. Auto restores when you go thru setup after flashing the ROM
[Motorola Droid X2] L2_n19h7m4r3:
Bah, Hog wash.
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
Is that a setting in pure grid or something?
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
no, pure grid, if you will remember, asks you on setup which calendar you want to use. By default, its set to the google one. SO, you set your phone up and the calendar syncs.. then you install pure grid again and it grabs the already synched google calendar.. thats all google.
[Motorola Droid X2] dust.:
I agree. I 've been backing up my apps and their data with Titanium Backup since I started flashing roms and have had no problems...
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
@xkape - yeah I haven't had to reinstall it in so long I just forgot I guess.....thanks tho

@dust - I haven't had any problems with TB so ill continue to use it.....might use nandroid as well just as a safeguard and cuz I've heard a lot about it
[Motorola Droid X2] ilovesoad:
Apps and data across updates to these rom has always been fine. Going across versions (froyo/gb etc) has been known to causes issues, as well as settings. The settings issue is widely accepted as a way to introduce bugs. You'd know this if you'd been flashing roms for longer than a few weeks.
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
I don't want to start a whole thing here...yes titanium is a great program but i have run into problems with it not restoring properly and causing some problems. I always prefer to just do a fresh install if im backed into a corner, but Titanium works great but i ran into some issues with it not restoring settings/accounts causing FC and ghost email accounts that could not be removed. Maybe its just me i used it a couple of times and it worked but it just didn't seem like a clean restore for some reason. Again just giving opinion here not trying to start anything...**Opinion Only**
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Nandroid is seriously best thing u could EVER do before flashing or at any point for that matter. If there is ever a point where u say damn I really like how my phone is righteous now. Wish I could get back here if something ever messes up. Then just go into recovery using system recovery app and make ur nandroid. I keep em on external sd card cuz there's more space for plenty of em. And then I use root explorer and rename or add on something to the name of the backup so I don't forget which one it is when im restoring it. When u male a nandroid it automatically puts the date and time of creation as the file name.

Trust me. Nandroid will save your butt on occasion if u flash ANYTHING. Its awesome to just press restore and presto your right back where u were.
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
Not a TB fan here... just a personal preferences...

Best way I've found to get back up quickly is... having the rom auto download your apps and when its done, go into recovery and do an advanced restore. Then choose data only. That's assuming you made a backup of course.
[Motorola Droid X2] whiplash473:
Would it be too much to ask for someone to walk me thru flashing this?
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
Check the stickies.. theres instructions for flashing stuff... also, just so you know, the Eclipse ROM is not one of the ROMs that auto downloads your apps. You will need to do that yourself then do the data resotre.. if you are going that route. If you are using TB, you can restore it all but.. I dont use it so I have no clue how to do that.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumcloud:
as someone who's done the repair twice. Don't buy from ebay as they sell cheaper knockoffs.

Its actually pretty complicated and almost worth the money to send it in for repair.

Really.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disgustip8ted:
i disagree, the repair was fairly easy if youre following a guide. ive done it once and taken mine completely apart twice. the most difficult part was separating the broken glass from the rubber part where it is mounted and getting the bottom part of the phone off without breaking it or leaving marks. I used spray adhesive to seal the new digitizer to the mount. I bought mine from amazon, just about the same price and came with prying tools. it was good quality with only a single miniature air bubble in the glass which is only noticeable if youre really looking for it on a full white screen.

if only your glass is broken that is all you should need, the digitizer. if the lcd is cracked or bleeding you will need that as well.
[LG Optimus 3D] TheFirlen:
Well, I see ppl from XDA doesn't interesting so much in O3D. There are only two kernels at the moment: stock and Acurateam beta kernel which is pretty sh$$ty. I see noone want to compile the kernels, noone want to see how can we O/C O3D, or maybe someone want, but he doesn't know how? Write here you opinions :)
[LG Optimus 3D] omgomg:
I got mine today.

Maybe this is all due to the fact it's a very recent phone and there aren't yet any developers with one of these.

Anyway, anxiously waiting for CM7 and better kernels.
[LG Optimus 3D] DevJackey:
I believe the reason is also because they're waiting for 2.3
[LG Optimus 3D] precsmo:
I'm one ****ed up user definitely. The O3D doesn't feel like it is optimized with the so call full dual channels chipsets. The old Android 2.2 make it worse. The 3D is awesome, but using the camera in 3d modes and browsing 3d contents is sluggish. It is a huge frustration to turn on the 3d camera and switching between 3d video. When it is finally able to take the moment, it has already history.

If LG doesn't promise with the gingerbread in Oct, I will feel really ****ed up with LG phones. And even if they will, the flaws might not be fixed. I'm only putting high hope with cyanogenmod with everything working. I give it another 3 months, if nothing changed I will chuck this phone. I've experienced with few android phones, I've never feel so frustrated with a "high end' phone. It is not polished in many ways. My old HTC HD2 ported with Android had way better experience with this phone. This is freaking annoying to me now, and I'm feeling stupid of spending such money for a phone. I'm giving this phone 3 months time!
[LG Optimus 3D] franlov:
from acurateam have worked and are working to bring something better than stock, we are not experts in modification of kernels for android (but we are working hard), we know that this device can take a lot of potential, and try to help with our work, some great developer soon appear, we are studying to improve O3D

With gingerbread longer possible improvements, froyo is simply
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
The phone itself is great, the biggest problem here is LG and their b*** s***.When I bought the phone I sold my SGS2 and the reason for that was 3D, I didnt expected it would be as fast as SGS2, but it is actually, it is a very nice device.The biggest problem is GB, LG promised it would be out in September, but than they release an update with a 3D converter (what is very nice actually), but doenst fix our performance problem.The problem here is not the device or developers, as I said before the problem here is Froyo and LG.

R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R Root for the BIONIC

Works on any system software version (.886 and .893)

Now for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X

Presented to you by dhacker29, DroidTh3ory, Crpeck and TH3ORYROM

​

I have totally rewritten the windows version and Crpeck has rewritten the Linux/Mac OS X version

The downloads include all of the files necessary to either root or restore and root your bricked BIONIC no matter what system version you are on (.886 or .893

I have zipped up the fastboot binary, boot.img, system.img, ROOT tools and a custom script so that all you have to do is download the zip. Extract it the folder and double click on Root.bat (windows) or MotoRooter.sh (Linux/MacOS X) file to be given the option to root your BIONIC or recover and restore from a bootloop or softbrick on your BIONIC.

The Windows version now includes the ADB exe and DLL file so you don't have to worry about not having ADB setup.

The Linux and Mac OS X version has been updated by Crpeck, so that it is now menu driven and has a clicky icon for Mac OS X users. It includes the adb and fastboot binaries for both OS's and will auto determine which platform you are running.

Instructions:

Download the zip:

Windows: R3l3AS3DRoot_Windows_V2.1.zip

MotoRooter for Linux and Mac OS X: MotoRooter-1.1.zip

Extract the zip folder on your computer.

Double click the file R3L3AS3DRoot.bat for windows, MotoRooter.sh for Linux, or Mac-MotoRooter for Mac OS X in the folder where you extracted the zip.

Follow the prompts on the screen and you'll be given the option to restore to factory stock, restore to factory stock and reroot with forever foot, or forever root your phone.

Each section gives you instructions on what mode to put your phone in so follow them carefully!

Enjoy the scripts!! And show Crpeck some love for helping with the Mac OS X stuff and making my linux version even better.

If you encounter an error message please post what the error was and which operating system you were running it on so we can help you better.

A special thanks to BriefMobile for the files and information to make this possible.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rootuser3.0:
I guess your name says it all nice work my friend
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dhacker29:
You should be able to convert my batch file into a shell script and put in the mac OS X binary. I am going to try to do a linux version and if I do the shell script should work in OS X.

Not working for me, getting the dll missing crap...

This seemed to be a standalone fix without any pre-reqs from what i read in the OP, is there some kind of registered dlls from something else involved?

I actually installed the sdk and stuff but can't mess about with this computer too much as i'm at work.

Any ideas?

I spent the last day and a half working on a battery icon for our bionics. It's the Stock battery, but smooth filling and 1% increments inside. Tell me what you think.

Credit to nitroglycerine33 for 1% increments on the Bionic!

This includes nitro's mod so no need to flash both (I'll release a standalone version later). You must be deodexed. Should work on any rom that hasn't modified the framework-res.apk or services.jar

If you like it throw me some coins or if you're poor like me just hit the "Thanks" button :D

According to Cnet's sources, on October 7th Sprint is going to announce that it is discontinuing its Wimaxipad rollout and moving to lte, leaving our phones behind.

"Leaving our phones behind"??? Yeah, in 2 or more years.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
even if they did, I wont be letting this thing go until sprint gets the prime or HD. I love this phone too much
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sk63:
Old news. Wimax has been deployed in a new city for quite sometime and all the indications were that Sprint was going LTE. Existing Wimax signals likely won't be turned off for a couple of years. LTE phones won't be showing up on Sprint for 6-12 months, or right about when I'm ready to upgrade to a new phone anyway.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
:rolleyes:...they dont even know what they're talking about and are reporting on rumors...lovely.

Anyway, any network deactivation would take quite a while before it actually happens.

By the time it does, if it does, no one on XDA will have a Wimax Sprint phone anyway.

Sprint announced they were shutting down the iDen network a year ago... that won't even be done until 2013.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
I know right dude .. makes you just want to leave them .. i only see them going down the ****ter with these "changes" they're making to bring the damn iPhone to their network ... it's sad.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jobryan26:
Sprint is still rolling out WiMax, as a matter of fact it was just turned on here in Naples, Fl. about a week ago. Also, Sprint has stated they will continue to support their 3G network and WiMax network as well as they have announced plans to develop a third LTE network in conjunction with Clear and a 4th LTE network in conjunction with Lighsquared. Sprint also has the ability to run a software update on their WiMax towers which will allow WiMax devices to run on the LTE networks so there is really nothing to be concerned about. Sprint is also planning to phase out the IDEN network in 2012.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
[Citation Needed]

It's not that I don't believe you...it's just that...I don't believe you.

What I do know about WiMax and LTE is that the base stations, aside from minor hardware difference (coax vs fiber to antenna/emitter) they are only a software patch away from each other.

I have read that multiple times from multiple sources.

I have also read that such a thing is not possible with our devices. A WiMax devices is a WiMax device. Period.

Though what you say, hopefully on purpose, is very intriguing though potentially confusing. "Allow WiMax devices to run on LTE networks" ...when you look at it that way it doesn't seem so unreasonable...suggesting an abstraction layer?

Either way, citation needed. pics or it didn't happen, etc. ;)

Sorry but no.
