[EVO Shift 4G General] Matt_the_Geek:
Hi there, just curious if there is a setting to keep the wireless connection active while the device is in standby.

When was running CM7 my wifi stayed active even in standby or sleep, but now on Cyclonic it seems to drop the wifi connection if it stays in standby long enough. The wifi stays enabled in the settings, but upon unlocking my shift, i have to reconnect to the wifi almost everytime. Didnt need to with CM7.

Do you think its to do with the difference in software, or...?

Also, how do you rename your Shift something other than the PG06100?
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
Setting>Wireless & Networks>WiFi Settings>Click Menu>Advanced.

Then you have to click "never" in WiFi sleep policy.

And could you clarify on your second question?

Change it for your signature? Or as in your notification bar as your carrier label?

Shifted from my EVO.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Matt_the_Geek:
Ok, so that was ridiculously easy...

As for the second question, see down there how mine says "sent from..." and yours says something different? Is everyones that is different just editing the text, or is there something that changes it?
[EVO Shift 4G General] Enraged21:
You have to go to your xda settings and you can customize your signature from there.

Go into the xda app. Click on menu. And then settings. You should see it from there.

Shifted from my EVO.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] avenge the rage:
Hello all, my girlfriend has the galaxy s phone, and it has developed a fault.

when turning on it just comes up with the white loading circle and then goes off.

I have tried to go into the boot system menu but that wont come up either.

Any ideas of how to get it working again?

thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ccrows:
Flash a different stock firmware in Odin and make sure the repartition box is checked...

Are you able to go to Download mode in phne by 3-buttons combo?

If so, it is not bricked. If not.. try to buy a usb jig... if this will not help...

Anyway: as long as you'd be able to put it in download mode - you aren't lost...

Will GrooveIP work?
[TouchPad General] Spazzvogel:
I'll have to look into those ones, I installed Tango video calling, and I can see the other callers video, but no mic or video on my end. I wasn't expecting it to work, and I'm ok with it not working just yet, hopefully it will get fixed when full release comes. Other than that, this thing rocks!
[TouchPad General] LexusBrian400:
I used Groove IP to call my self, I could hear my first word, then it went dead. Def has potential in coming CM updates.
[TouchPad General] Lolento:
Same thing here

Gtalk with video - video works but no sound from to

Skyupe video - neither video nor audio work (audio seem to start OK)

Sipdroid setup with Google voice - calls go thru but no sound from tp
[TouchPad General] yamilrx:
I used grooveIP with google voice disabling the 3g/4g option and also enabling google chat under GV settings. I was able to make a call but the sound was either delayed or not there. I can see this working with updated versions of CM. I can also receive calls but same sound issues.
[TouchPad General] Izeltokatl:
I've tried sipdroid Cm7 but audio doesn't work.. Hopefully cm9 will be a different story.

Hi how can I replace the original (blue) stock menu background image with one of my own ? :o

I've Xperia X8 Rooted on Stock 2.1 update 1

I know there are alot of themes and this and that, But I don't want to get messy, I just want to replace the image with one of my own, please provide a tutorial link , thanks... :D

Try this one:

I have no stock rom anymore, so I could not confirm if it works. At least it sounds plausible.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] orangzeb:
lolz, u noob
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Chris95X8:
LOL at second post

Maybe if look in framework res folder and find the background image, you can replace it with your own (remember to keep the same file name and resolution). Sounds kinda difficult though.

CAN ANYBODY HELP ME???

I am using galaxy SL i9003 phone. Its somewhat similar to i9000 phone. On our phone we have implemented 5 lockscreen but its too difficult for us to implement 10 lockscreen mod. Any developer will help us to implement 10 lockscreen mod. I am ready to give all files that developer want. Our whole community will be thankful to u.:):):)
[Kindle Fire General] fbm111:
It might be about time that someone makes a sticky in the development section on "How to's." My grammar is not the best and I have no idea how to hotlink links or I would do it.

It would be nice to have a sticky on the current best way to root, install recovery, roms, etc.

Is this something the moderator does or anyone just do it?
[Kindle Fire General] Whiskey103:
Well, somebody has to do it. When it's a good guide, and it's worth to be "sticked" I will do it ofcourse ;)

[HTC Sensation] Joshua3109:
Hey, I have been running Revolution HD for a month or so now and i've noticed slight lag and such. The thing is, I didn't do a factory reset coming from stock. I am assuming this is the problem.

Do you guys agree with this?
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
No wipe/factory reset = problems

That's probably your issue.

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] Joshua3109:
I agree, ill post my results in a few hours.
[HTC Sensation] chapinrico:
I did factory wipe...rom is amazingly fast no lag. Way way better than stock Rom..I still ask my self why htc would allow stock rom to run so bad.?
[HTC Sensation] rddocke:
same reason we have light bulbs that die on is in a few months when the first light bulb invented still works today.

just leaving room for development I suppose good thing we have folks like Mike1986 who refuse to settle for mediocre
[HTC Sensation] Joshua3109:
I did the reset and flashed the latest version of the tommorow. Everything is running perfectly now, its so much faster.
[HTC Sensation] whymewho:
Wipe, super wipe, factory reset really helps...

Just every time you flash custom rom, do a back-up, full wipe then flash...

makes every custom rom works great..
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
Have a Samsung Focus and after mango update (NoDo) 50Mb for month was enought to keep update my data (hotmail (updated every 15 min), google (updated every 15 min) and facebook accounts). Also, I use twitter and facebook apps to read news (separately) every day at night. Update my RSS Central channels and eventualy navigate trought marketplace and some internet wabepages. Now with Mango, my phone consumes 50 Mb in a week with the same uses above described. I'm I the only one with this situation? I would appreciate any help with this.

Thanks.

Pd. Sorry for my limited english. I do my best.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Alcoholic:
I noticed an increase as well. Mango uses about 150MB a month in background data per month for me. 99% of the time i'm on wifi, so my data usage is when the phone is asleep.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
thanks for the answer. That sucks. I think i need a postpay contract.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Live Tiles, maybe?! Background agents?

Have you checked?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ttblondey:
I'm using 12gb data plan with an app that can check how much I use daily.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
No Live tiles, no background agents used. In fact, i just revert to nodo and update to mango without add anything and the phone eats a lot of data.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
isn't AT&T app? cause i use my focus outside of US.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Muvolt:
You are right about data consumption...in my country data plans are very expensive and I always get unlocked phones with prepaid data packets. With Mango, I spend 60mb in 2-3 days! In NODO, a 60mb data packet could last for almost 8-10 days with the same use/apps.

I have deactivated every automatic sync but the data consumption is still relatively big...even XBOX syncs automatically!! One note sync can't be turned off :mad:

MS must understand that their devices can be purchased in many places in the world and AFAIK only in USA there is free wi-fi like the oxygen in the air and data plans/contracts are better deals than an unlocked phone. In other countries we can't live with devices that depend so much on the internet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
I think youre right with this. One Note, Office docs in skydrive and xbox sync at the same time when live account sync. I think we need a sync config in office hub and xbox live hub. I want my mail updated every 15 mins at least, but office docs and xbox live may update 2 times at every day (thats enought for me).
[Windows Phone 7 General] HenryTheX:
Yup, I understand what u r tryin t say, but Windows Phone is oriented to EU and US, as well as HSDPA countries.

Btw u can turn Xbox sync and Zune sync off if u do not wish to use too much of ur data balance tho.

The diff of Windows Phone, the essence of Windows Phone OS, is mainly rely on cloud computing and synchronization. If u don't use Live Tile, no Twitter push notification, no Facebook intergration chat, no MSN Messenger, no SkyDrive Office document storage, no photo sharing, no Xbox Live, no Zune real-time personal experience, no push Email, no Tellme voice guide, no Bing Maps, a Windows Phone experience is not outstanding at all, the reason Windows Phone is better sometime is largely bcuz there r so many Microsoft Service behind this platform, supporting it.

It's not when u r using Metro UI, u r using Windows Phone. That's wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 General] silvertonesx24:
I noticed this as well. I had Mango beta versions and had my usual data usage. After the official update this month, I checked my data usage and it was much higher than usual, and I haven't really done anything differently. I keep off data when I'm home at wifi and usually just use it for directions and maps when I'm out.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sunco:
Yep, this happend to me too. I have a 50mb data plan and everything fine with Mango-beta for 30 days. Now with Mango its only 15-18 days

I just deactivate all Xbox Live stuff, I check background workers, telemetry

For the record, I have my primary hotmail account with Push (since nodo, mango-beta, mango)
[Windows Phone 7 General] dcuk7:
I have a MobileMe, Gmail, Hotmail and Exchange account set up to sync with my phone plus Xbox Live, a couple of weather apps, a few news live tiles and the Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn set up and in a week I've consumed 5.09MB so it must be device/firmware specific.

I am using a HD7 on O2 UK.
[Windows Phone 7 General] majkeljj:
guys, did you have feedback disabled? if not disable. try to disable also checking of system updates via cellular data it is default enabled.did you try to make hard reset after mango update, it is confirmed that mango after hard reset drain battery less maybe probles with data usage may change. try to disable background apps.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
both wife and myself upgraded to Mango and I paid close attention to data usage. The data usage went up maybe 10-15%, which I expected with life tile push when away from WiFi. Nothing outrageous.
[Windows Phone 7 General] smuppy:
How do you know how data your phone uses? I still havent found any app for keeping track on that, if you have a suggestion Id love to try it out!

---------- Post added at 09:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

Would love to know that as well.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fraztto:
I use my focus outside the US, I see no utility in at&t apps so I erased them. Why should I keep them? my Data usage was about 150Mb/month, with mango i think it is like 180Mb/month, I dont think it is that bad.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
i know at this times, everything go/back to internet. Push services, sync services, location services etc..But i think some services need to be more configurable. I dont need twitter, facebook or foursquare updated every 15 mins. That's the razon why i don't configure facebook and twitter accounts and install every app separately. Integration of the services is a good one, but need to be more configurable. In WM 6.x this is possible. Why leave out this feature in WP7 ??
[Windows Phone 7 General] sunco:
Yes, that change is normal from NoDo to Mango, but not from Mango-Beta to Mango. Must be the same or in fact decreased because some last time changes/fixes

I have already disabled the "use my data connection" to check updates and send feedback
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
As for me it much easier to pay $10/month more and stop worry about data over usage ;) (but I begun from the 200 Mb/month data plan too)
[Windows Phone 7 General] voluptuary:
Here are a couple things you can try if you really want to cut data use:

1.) Turn on battery saver even when your battery isn't low.

2.) Disable feedback

3.) Disable checking for updates with cellular data.

4.) Disable speech recognition over the network.

5.) Under keyboard -> typing settings, diable sending keyboard information.

6.) Disable sync game requests and other unused xbox features.

7.) Set "Only download podcasts over Wi-Fi" under music+videos

8.) Disable automatic picture upload to SkyDrive.

9.) Disable "get suggestions from bing" "allow microsoft to store images from vision searches" and "send location info" under search.

10.) Disable "get suggestions from bing" under Internet Explorer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigwaveMx:
ok, i will try those steps and i'm going to add 50Mb cellular data. Hope this helps.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pravind:
I agree on that but Facebook only syncs photos for contact images and I'm not sure how regularly.

All the other stuff like pics, whats new, individual feeds etc only resync when you go to access them so shouldnt be using up any data.
[Windows Phone 7 General] XATAGuy:
I’ve taken all of these suggestions. Thanks to all. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to figure out how to get the device to stop syncing my Notes every time I open one. I use my notes a lot. I don’t need to sync them when I’m abroad, and I need to keep the international data usage down. We (I) REALLY need to figure out how to disable this!

Thanks,

Dave
[Windows Phone 7 General] shinkstor:
Same for me. When i first turned my phone on after updating to mango, there was like 2 mb every 10 minutes, and I hadn't installed any apps or signed into any of the mail or syncing applications. I just turn off cellular when i dont use it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] silvertonesx24:
I can confirm that this is an apparent issue.

I have had my HD7 for 10 months and have had no issues staying under 200mb. Now, I've had to shut down my data for the last week of this month. The only data I really use is maps for directions.
[Windows Phone 7 General] imsparta:
I can confirm the same thing.

I am from Mexico too and using Telcel.

I did note a very steep increase in my data use too, at the end of the 50 MB month plan I usually had about 30 MB remaining, even with mango beta (outlook configured to download mails as they arrive (150+ daily mails) personal hotmail syncing every 30 mins, facebook, twitter.

The same 50 MB now lasts about a week and a half and i havent been able to find out why. I just noted this about 3 weeks ago, im not sure if its related to Mango (i was updated by the normal means (not forced) the day after it was released).

On a separate (related?) note, my office neighbor has an iPhone and just today at lunch time he asked me if i hadnt note an increase in data use with Telcel, he also complained that the usage went a lot up without an apparent reason.

Maybe the carrier Telcel "updated" their billing system?
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
The phone downloads more stuff now and it's worse when you use other Microsoft services like Zune and Xbox Live.

Then there are more apps using background services and live tiles. Also, the browser was updated and elements that were stripped on IE 7.5 mobile are now displaying in IE 9 - that increases your data consumption while browsing the web.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JB.:
Hi All,

I just wanted to share with you a solution I've come across to fix a Wifi problem.

The Problem:

After several weeks of perfect performance, my phone became unable to connect to my routers at home. These are Netgear routers.

The only thing I can think of that triggered this issue was flashing a new ROM which included a Radio update. However I think I had this just before flashing the ROM!

But effectively, I was not able to connect to a wireless router. The phone would find the network, allow the key to be entered and would authenticate and try and obtain an IP Address. At this point, it would fail and disconnect. It would just loop like this.

Solution

I tried all sorts. Restarted the router, reflashed my ROM, flashed many earlier radio images, did a full factory reset etc... but each time I just couldn't connect.

Giving up, I rang Orange UK to get a replacement handset. After speaking to the tech guy, he told me he was going to send some settings to my phone... After a little discussion I still couldn't get out of him what he was actually sending. It wasn't APN settings, but as I told him, he doesn't have my Router settings so what on earth can he send to my phone to fix the problem?

However, after he sent the stuff, my phone hung up much to my annoyance!

But I thought, what the hell, so I turned my router off, turned my phone off, removed the battery, waited the magic 30 seconds ( I know, but I was humouring the guy before I rang back to complain about wasting my time )

On turning my phone back on, and turning my router back on... everything worked!!!

So, if you're having a Wifi issue, ring up your operator and see if they have some magic settings that they can send you, and at the very least, turn everything off, and remove the battery for 30 seconds and try again!

Hope this helps someone!

John
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sylluck:
Hi guys

Here I have a problem with the 3G. When I'm on a Custom Rom, my network shows H and sometimes 3G, but not 3G+.

As against when I put the original ROM, my network shows 3G and sometimes 3G+.

I tried several custom ROM, and always the same. The APN is identical to the original ROM.

I do not understand. There is a special configuration of my provider (Orange FR)? If so, then I get this configuration to associate it with a Custom Rom?

Thanking you in advance

PS: Sorry for my English, I use a translator.

In my opinion the phone is hideous, was thinking to upgrade but no way in hell am i doing that....

i got a feeling Samsung designed this too look like sh*t, to sell the galaxys2 and save customers for their new stock coming soon. This looks like some cheap Chinese knockoff. But the sad fact is they look a lot better...

what do you guys think.

EDIT...

NEW pictures released look a lot better still not feeling the soft key icons as much though....

the nexus s should have been a pretty obvious clue

[Nexus One General] Makaijin:
The prime was too deep into development when google bought Motorola for them to just abandon the project. If there is going to be another nexus after the prime then chances are it will be done by Motorola.
[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
According to Google (whether or not you want to believe it is another story), the Nexus phones will still be a contest for developers. Just because Google owns Motorola doesn't (supposedly) guarantee that Motorola will be the exclusive Nexus manufacturer.

I really hope this is true, because I am sure this is a major thing manufacturers push for. They may not sell as well as some of the other phones out there, but they get a ton of clout and the developers are very quick to stand behind them. Anything that challenges companies to try to one-up each other is a great thing in my book. That is what drives innovation.
