agree with the bulk of you.

The only reason i'm getting this phone is because of emulation.

Hell i never ever even took a look at the gameloft or any other android game out there... i think i just played angry birds twice in my life.

I currently have an X10 and i absolutely love it, don't give a crap about dual core or stuff like that, my x10 goes fast and does everything i need it for; except for one thing, that is emulation.

I'd be the happiest person alive to have everything i had with my X10 plus a solid pad and the chance to pop it up any time and delight myself with some good-ol' super mario world :D

Right now there's another thing that concernes me about the play, dsswoosh was talking about buttons blowing in pieces or malfunctioning... that would suck. One thing i loved about my X10 are the marvelous hardware buttons (hate the softouch ones), that after almost a year of abuse they still work like new..

That this phone's strength lies in how well it can emulate anything below Dreamcast is undeniable. I bought it for 400 euro five months ago, now I could buy it for 220 or so... But the loads and loads of games that I've been able to revive and enjoy, and the fun of tinkering around with a new piece of kit (I've been lucky to have been helpful for some devs here), are just priceless.
[Xperia Play General] dsswoosh:
1) The volume button fell out, but i fixed it with a dab of solvent cement. Other people have reported it falling out aswell.

2) The back button has a fault where when you press it, sometimes it activates, 2 or 3 or even 4 times. This can be highly annoying. If you have 4 tabs opened in a browser and it activates 4 times, they all shut down and the browser exits :)

The O button can be used as back, so its not a gamebreaker, jut annoying.

3) My right shoulder button has lost springiness and sags a bit. Again, not a gamebreaker, just annoying.

The actual game buttons all work great and are solid after months of use.
[Xperia Play General] FK1983:
Yup! I hardly play any retro games on my Play, too busy with modern xperia play optimized games!
[Xperia Play General] FTAiii:
For me, its all about emulation. Look at the options before the play : wiz gp2x / canoo : the linex devices that had piecemeal developer support and were a touch complicated to configure/set up. OpenPandora, great if you can wait 1.5 years for delivery, but a bit bulky. <-- I actually received mine about 1 week before the play arrived, now it sits collection dust as I have everything running better on the Xplay.

When ever i connect my phone and try to update phone or pc suite i get this error

"The update check files have not been imported from the update server or the mobile phone is not connected"

How to solve this problem. . ..
[LG Optimus 3D] mistermentality:
Check that in settings menu of the phone, under the applications/development section usb debugging is enabled (this allows phone to communicate with the update software, or at least on my laptop it only works with this option enabled on the phone).

Then if it still does not work you can click the button on the update softwares main screen to install the usb drivers which should solve the problem.

Hey all,

I know the Vibrant has AT&T's 1900 3g band.

Can anyone confirm if the Galaxy S 4G also have the same AT&T 1900 3g band?

What sucks is that these bands are typically not listed in the specs but it's always a pleasant surprise when a t-mo phone has the AT&T 1900 band.

Thanks.

I'm thinking of upgrading to the Galaxy S 4g from the Vibrant but I don't want to give up the 1900 band when I swap to an AT&T sim.

Thanks in advance for the info :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] johnnyboyya:
Yes it will but u can check it out here

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-S-4G_id5138
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joel32137:
Thanks for the reply but according to phonearena, the Galaxy S 4g only covers GSM 1900. Not UMTS 1900.

The Vibrant actually has UMTS 1900 hence Unlocked Vibrants can be used on AT&T's 3G network

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Vibrant_id4747

However, I know phonearena isn't always accurate when it comes to specs/bands so that's why I'm asking all you Galaxy S 4g owners :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
the s4g doesnt have the full 3g band hence why it goes from hsdpa to edge and not switch to 3g as it actually lacks the band for it .....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Compxpert:
Does that mean Tmobile phones will work on a att

4g?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
should worse case is u get edge at best
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Tinkerer76:
Joel, what did you end up doing?

Can the SGS 4G use 4G on AT&Ts network?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fredmc2020:
I was at one point able to get Straight Talk 3G working on the 1900 band when I used to live in TX. This was using ATT's network so it is definitely possible.

However a word of caution: from my experience in some areas ATT uses 850 for 3G, which the SGS4g does not support (edge only).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] iqtech:
Got my sgs 4g unlocked and tested on at&t sim card ,3g worked with no problem (chicago area)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
The unlocked version of this phone does include umts 1900 band so it can pickup 3g signal on that frequency.

On the back of the phone it says it clearly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nashi20002003:
the tmobile version also

Bought from tmobile with no mention of ATT BANDS in the specs. Rooted, unlocked and was able to pick up 3g in Dallas,Tx on Att.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joel32137:
Thanks all, I'm glad to hear that T-mo's Galaxy S 4g works with AT&T's 1900 3g band.

I know this may be asking much but for all who's running the phone on AT&T's 3G 1900 band (and if you have time), do you mind doing a speed test on AT&T and posting your results?

Thanks,

I have unlocked mine and had 3g on at&t for a while (brothers at&t sim) got regular 3G speeds as well. Its crazy huh? :-)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Logix:
why on earth would u do this less theres no t/simple mobile I had att on my 3g vibrant for a while yeah it said it got 3g but it SUCKS espacially indoors thats why att used the other frequency to get indoor "penetration" :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tehgyb:
Heh, you said penetration.

Okay kidding aside

Yes the SGS4g will run on ATT's 3g band. You won't have 4g though.

I actually used mine on ATT for almost 2 weeks lol

Since this morning, I've been picking up HSPA from AT&T on my SGS4G. Until today it always displayed the 3G icon and the network info said UMTS.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackazz:
hi everyone,

I´m having a problem with my DHD (I´m using ARHD 6.1.1):

In settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > network mode I´m not able to set only GSM, the button is just not there...

there are only 2 options, WCDMA only & GSM/WCDMA auto

I´m from Austria and have just switched to Three (3) Austria, which has only 3G network by itself. The GSM network is provided by A1. So if I´m somewhere where the 3G connection is not that good, the phone starts jumping between GSM and 3G network, which is really annoying and costs a lot of battery.

I know that there was an option like GSM only, but since the new version came out it just disappeared.

Reflash and Wipe + Flash didn´t worked for me. Radio is the correct version!

Is this a problem with the ROM or with my APN settings? I´ve just tested CM7 and there I´m able change between 2G and 3G with no problems.

Anyone has some ideas? Thanks for help!

Hello everyone,

I made a WoL app some month ago, but forgot to talk about it here.

I've updated it for Mango two weeks ago, and thanks to the sockets availability in the new SDK, it can now suit all scenarii of use :

- Wake on LAN, on your local wifi network

- Wake on WAN, over the internet, requires that your router redirects WOL requests

It's free, and you can find it here : http://windowsphone.com/s?appid=dd5ce566-39ab-e011-a53c-78e7d1fa76f8

And the page where I keep the changelog :

Thanks dude !!!!

Why can't I find this great app in my marketplace in Netherlands (Pays Bas) ?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pleasereset:
There was a problem on the marketplace :)

But now it's fixed, and I would prefer that you don't distribute the xap freely without my consent. Downloading via the marketplace allows me to have usage stats.

By the way, I did not forget about the feature requests, and I'm working on the following :

- Check if a PC is on or off

- Remotely shutdown the PC

I've written the v2.0 of the app which is almost an RC, and the PC service app (called lighthouse) which is an early alpha for now.

It works perfectly in a local network, but I have problems debugging it in the real worlds (sockets timing out, firewall blocking and stuff). If someone is interested in helping me testing, just send me a PM.

Now it shows only the Bootloader with the original SPL and I cant flash other roms because they dont loading.

What can I do now?

It all has to do with the 3g radio in the phone...It sucks...I'm in Dallas TX and I get speeds so low I can't load a web site through opera mini. Any other phone I owned Evo4g and 3d where not that slow at all. 4g is not strong enough to keep a signal while moving/driving so I dont use it much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Actually, it has all to do with your prl...unless you're on an old or select business prl, almost all current prls only allow 1xrtt data on roaming. So the speeds you are seeing are actually normal 1x speeds

Its confusing though, since our phones seem to be lacking the 1x icon
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vivix729:
This. And it's not just this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Actually in many areas, the PRL entry for Verizon is defined to search for Verizon 1x signal while also searching for Sprint EV signal. So you could actually be roaming on Verizon for voice, have the EV/3G indicator, but still be using Sprint for EV/3G data.

This can lead to even more confusion.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
My Moment (August, anyway) was able to roam on 3G in northern Wisconsin. Of course, I believe that that part of AllTel went to Cellular One, not Verizon. That's probably the difference.

In fact, I often got better data speeds in the middle of the forest up north than I do at home in Milwaukee. I usually got 150-200kBs (bytes, not bits) whereas at home, I get 15-20kBs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
speed heavily depends on time and location

can be anywhere from 500kbs-1.5mbs but as slow as 200 if the tower is super hogged.

Never had a LOS, stock kernel + root
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] japper88:
Damn I would kill for those speeds. In midtown manhattan and on 4G I can only get around 5mbps download (standing next to a window) and 350kbps download.

I can't even get 4G signal in my house downtown. I get only 1 or 2 bars for 3G unless I am standing next to a window.

I need to test the speed of the 3G next time I roam.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
this is fps test. hope the pic works this time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mag44:
From what I understand Verizon does not support 3G roaming with Sprint phones you will only get 1x service. 3G roaming was a deal with Alltel, who got bought out by Verizon and ATT. You are going to get crappy speeds if you are roaming on Verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
You can do the prl hack and use one that enables 3g roaming on verizon :-)

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
I have a rooted Thunderbolt and the latest version of the OTA leaked Rom and Radio. My problem is I cannot use Navigation, with Google Maps, because it constantly says "Searching for GPS", but never seems to find it. I have downloaded and installed GPS Status and done a Reset and Download. I have not had a problem with other ROMs and Radios so could that be the problem? It is just the Navigation that seems not to work. It seems to find my Location OK. The icon for the GPS looks like a Satellite Dish and is constantly flashing, but never goes Solid.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew C:
I found this post over in the Droid Charge forum. Copy and paste the new gps.conf file I attached or you can copy and paste the text to your existing file. With Root Explorer navigate to system>etc>gps.conf to edit your gps.conf file. Save and reboot. Now open up GPS Status and get a lock. Now whenever you open up navigation it should work.

Every phone is different, but it worked for my Droid Charge and it works on my Thunderbolt. Hope this helps.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
Forgive me for being a bit unfamiliar with GPS Status, but how do I know when it has a Lock? The Satellite icon in the tray on top continues to blink. Is it supposed to go Solid? There is a rotating dashed circle that continuously rotates Clockwise, right under the Mag Field.

I was able to install Root Explorer, move the old GPS.conf to a safe place, then copy in the file that you sent me (after unzipping it, of course).
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew C:
You'll know when it has a lock when it looks like this:

The initial time to get a lock will take a while. Once you get that lock, your next attempts will be faster. That's how it goes for me.I also always open up GPS Status and get a lock before I use navigation.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:

Hmmm I'm running the latest leak+radio and I am not experiencing this issue mine actually locks in about 2-3 secs.

There are two contacts on the Left side of the phone and one contact on the Right side. When I took the back off, the GPS icon went away and when I put it back on, the icon came back.

Do I need a different Radio?

My original TB was defective and it was replaced by Verizon with this one. I Rooted it with Revolution and then put a Synergy Rom and Radio on the phone. I subsequently replaced it with this pair after the OTA for Gingerbread was announced.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
I tried that as well when the phone was out in the van. It did not make a difference.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
There should be a total of 4 contacts on the phone itself. The 2 on the left next to the camera is the radio antenna contacts and the 2 on the right near the edge of the phone are the GPS contacts. The battery cover has 3 contacts. 2 for the radio and a big one for the GPS.

I see you are running an already rooted leaked update. Mine was the actual untouched RUU and I had to root it myself using Revolutionary. I'm really not sure if that would even make a difference. I am running the radio that came with this update.

Sent from my brain.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
Where can I get the Untouched RUU and Radio you have? I am using the Extended Battery and cover. I see what you mean regarding the large contact for the GPS on the inside of the cover.

You can get it here:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...d-rom-radio-and-full-ruu-for-htc-thunderbolt/

Remember that this gets flashed in hboot so you will LOOSE root and all data, including the recovery. You will need to run Revolutionary after doing this. If you would like a step by step guide, let me know.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
I loaded just the Radio, for now, but I still cannot get a lock with GPS Status. I have run Reset and Download, as well.

Is it possible that the Rom is the issue or do you think I should take the phone back to Verizon and have them check it out?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baronmxc:
It's possible that it could either be the phone or the ROM. I really don't think its a ROM related issue but it wouldn't hurt to try and see if it was the ROM. You did say you did not have issues with GPS until after flashing this Usually the Radio would handle something like this ROM though. Since you said you flashed the radio and produced the same results, I would consider it a hardware defect. If after trying another ROM doesn't solve it, you will need to return your phone to stock before sending it back in.

I'll see if I can research this more for you for the next hour or so. Also you confirmed the number of contacts on the battery cover, but not on the phone itself. There are 4 contacts total.

Edit: you could try the Radio from the 1.70 ROM and see if that does anything as well.

Sent from my brain.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buschbarber:
OK!! I went ahead and installed the Full Gingerbread Stock RUU. This, of course, UnRooted my phone. It still did not let me get a GPS Lock. I took the phone to Verizon. They did a Factory Reset. Same results. They put in a new SIM card. Same Results. Then they told me that some phones were having problems with Google Navigation and that I should call Google. I said that if my original TB had no problems with Google Navigation and this phone had problems, then it made sense to keep sending me TB's until I get one that works again. I should be receiving another phone tomorrow.

In the mean time, I wanted to Root this phone, again, so i could try copying the GPS.conf into the/system/etc folder to see if that made a difference. Following the Revolutionary instructions, I tried to redownload Revolutionary from their web site, however my HBoot version is not one of the two choices. It still says Revolutionary on my HBoot screen and the HBoot version is 6.04.1002. I tried to access the Recovery screen, but it locked up the phone with the Evil Red Triangle.

How do I ReRoot this phone?
