[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AntikytheraTech:
Took the leap 2 days ago and rooted my Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch using Odin and the Zedomax v3 kernel. Root went fine and after a short minute I was rooted and installing Titanium Backup Pro, ROM Manager Pro and Wireless Tether For Root Users.

Having (free) wifi tethering is a must for me as I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (wifi version 32GB Grey) and need network access when out abroad and in the car. After installing the app from the market, I promptly opened it up and started tethering with all of the default settings (no encryption, ssid = AndroidTether, access control is disabled). The app shows that tethering is activated with no errors and broadcasting the signal. Now I switch to my SGT10.1 and open up network settings but there is no AndroidTether network seen. I refreshed multiple times and still nothing. So I grabbed a few other wifi devices (laptop, blackberry) and still, no AndroidTether network is seen.

I have checked the in-app Wireless Tether Log and there are no errors or failures. I have tried rebooting the SGSIIE4GT and still have same issues. I flashed back to stock kernel (rooted) and still have the same issues. Then removed root, rooted agin with Odin to Zedomax v3 and still same issues. Went to the distribution page for Wireless Tether and downloaded other beta and prior stable versions of the app and still same issues.

Soooo.... then I thought, maybe the hardware that broadcasts the wifi signal is busted. So I flash back to stock, unroot and go to sprint today. They activated my Sprint Hotspot service and BOOM! Pull out my SGT10.1 and the network is right there. Connect to it and it works just fine.

What is frustrating is my brother bought an SGSIIE4GT as well, we have the same hardware versions and running the same ROM and kernel and he can tether with no problems.

Not sure what could be causing the problems but hope I can get it sorted soon. Would very much appreciate any insight from anyone on new things to try. Anyone even having the same problems?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MasterJanks:
My guess it is because the Galaxy Tab doesn't support ad-hoc wifi tethering, which is what the wifi tethering app you're using broadcasts in. Had the same problem when I was trying to use it with my Touchpad. You will need a tethering app that supports infrastructure mode to be able to tether to your tablet.

Fortunately, Necrosan has been able to hack the built in Sprint Hotspot app (that uses infrastructure mode) to get free 3g tethering. That thread is here [HACK] [EG30] Hotspot Hack (3G Only for now)

You will need to be rooted and be using a deodexed EG30 rom, but there a quite a few of those around. I'm using [ACS][Odin]Stock EG30 Deodexed with Root 3.0/Busybox 1.18.4 and it is working great for me. Haven't even had LOS yet.

After you get all this done you should be able to use the Sprint Hotspot app and tether to your Galaxy Tab. Mine has been working great with my Touchpad so far. Hope this helps!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AntikytheraTech:
:-\

My brother (as stated above with the same hardware and software) tethers just fine to his SGT10.1 and his iMac....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MasterJanks:
To make sure its really broadcasting you should use a laptop or another computer with wifi to look for the SSID. If you see your device then the problem is probably the one stated above. If not, then there is definitely something else wrong

EDIT: just read that you already tried this. Sorry man, don't know what to tell you :/ If the Sprint Hotspot worked then I would just used the hacked version I mentioned previously to avoid paying monthly for it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AntikytheraTech:
Thanks for the responses, will give this a go sometime this week. Thanks for your help mate. :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
I've found that "Wireless Tether for Root Users" does not work for me on the ET. It acts like it is, but I can never see the SSID.

Try Barnacle Wifi Tether, it is working great for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Try this hopefully it works. I am getting my SGII today and this is main reason for rooting...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] albe070:
Does 4g work when you tether?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Barnacle did not work for 4g on my Evo so it may not work now. I believe it only handled 3g
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frazius88:
Hi there, i just want to know how to test the wifi calling, or how to se it, hope you can give me step by step instructions.. thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shrapnelx:
Not trying to be a smart ass or anything, but I would just turn on WiFi, enable WiFi calling, make sure it is running and connected to T-Mobile then either make or receive a call.

There is really not much set-up to the app other than connecting to a WiFi network and turning it on. The app should give you status messages letting you know if WiFi calling is working or not. You should also see a WiFi calling icon in the notification bar.

Hi all, is it possible to install WP7 or Mango on Samsung Galaxy S (Captivate, AT&T). I know we can install android on some of the Windows phones like WP7?
[Windows Phone 7 General] fraztto:
You can't have android on WP7 and you can't have WP7 on android. BTW Mango is a version of WP7

[HTC Jetstream] waterhurley:
ok i just got this hting less then a week ago, and 2 nights ago i was loading some game and the thing crashes. no big deal, boot right back up again. unlocked the screen, got to about the point where the sense weather displays and bam reboot. then even if i left it alone, it would constantly reboot. it got so bad to the point i couldnt even get it into h-boot. so i let the battery die, charged it up then booted it into h-boot and did a factory reset. reset worked fine, got 70% of the way through set-up then bam, boot loop

let the battery die again, factory reset it boot i into recoverymode, and was able to reboot and set it up. used it for about 10-20 mins, started syncing up accounts and stuff figuing whatever i did fixed it. bam, reboot. now im at square 1.

now im in my 14 days to exchange it but every damn store in boston is sold out, and since im an employee of at&t it get least priority to inventory(yes even though i am also a paiyng customer, seems kinda stupid but whatever). and i dont wanna deal with somerhing refurbed if i have to do a warranty swap...

so ANY ideas or help would be great.
[HTC Jetstream] cabbykins:
When you wiped and restarted, did the device begin to restore your installed apps? I would try a wipe without the device restore, just start it clean.
[HTC Jetstream] mattyass:
I'm with ya. Mine was solid for the first couple of weeks. Now its just a bootloop. Oddly, it was fine while I was on a flight today. Maybe something to do with the radio??

---------- Post added at 01:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

And FYI I'm on the horn with HTC who says its a problem with the SIM. I took it out and its working just fine on wifi. Of course they have no resolution and offering to do nothing for me, other than "they're looking into it". It did stop the reboots for me though.
[HTC Jetstream] noelc@infomagic.net:
Same problem

I have had the same problem. Taking out the sim worked for a day but now it still reboots. Doing a clean factory reset doesn't work. It will re-boot over and over until it runs the battery out.

HTC said they are looking into it. WTF.
[HTC Jetstream] cramjammer:
I use mine for wifi only, no SIM...I've been stuck in the boot-loop of death 3 times and the only thing I can do is let it run till dead. Really lame...and I was outside my 14 days.

Best build quality of any tablet I've owned (just about all of them) but it really has quite some bugs.

Thought I would share since I feel the HTC rep is full of BS with the SIM solution.
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
I agree with what you've said and feel that if we can't get some root access and start cleaning this thing up it will not live up to expectations... I'm finding less and less reasons to use it each day.

By the way. back on topic. I've gotten a reboot 4 times today while trying to get the gps to hook up and navigate. and it never has connected!
[HTC Jetstream] mattyass:
FYI: They're saying it's location-based now. HTC made me give them all the addresses I was at while it had been rebooting. It's happened to me in Chicago, where I live, and DC over the weekend.

I got this thing for remote administration. It's worthless to me without a SIM card.

AT&T is sending me a free one though. Guess I'll see if it happens on that one.
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
I just landed in McLean and my device is rebooting like mad unless it's in airplane mode!!!

I've disconnected all mobile data and am connected with wifi only and so far no reboots... Will keep you informed but suggest you attempt same. 2:15pm Still no reboot!! 3:45 turned off airplane mode... rebooted twice already.

10:57pm. No reboots once I got out of DC/McLean area and into Baltimore. Back in Texas now and no reboots since landing and corrected to 4g
[HTC Jetstream] mlekas:
My reboot problem solved with workaround - boot in portrait mode

I had what may be a different issue than described in other entries on this thread, but here's my story:

1. Rebooted the device manually (to clear app memory)

2. Touched screen to log in

3. As soon as circle dragged to middle of screen, device reboots

(repeated this many times in frustration, then)

4. pulled SIM Card and microSD card, same issue

5. Put device in portrait mode (HTC logo on right, charger on left)

6. touched screen to log in

7. get to password entry screen.

8. enter password, I'm in!

9. Insert SIM, manually rebooted, log in with Portrait mode, works

10 Insert SD card, manually rebooted, logged in with Portrait mode, works.

11. Manually rebooted, logged in with landscape mode (HTC logo on top, charger on bottom), got instant reboot. Pulled SIM/SD, same thing.

I don't know if it was a bug in the password protection screen or what, but I disabled my password at login and now I only orient it in portrait mode when I boot. Have not had the problem since. Oh and mine is not location-based - It worked forever in Seattle until it stopped working, and also worked in Paris, France until it stopped working. Same location each time - same room even. only change was orientation of the screen for me.
[HTC Jetstream] bmw-boy:
I think all the reboot issues are related to AT&T Sim cards and AT&T apps

Because I unlocked my own and uesing another sim card and I didn't face any rebooting issue
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
I swapped devices and will see what happens when I travel tomorrow... As for the ATT apps, unless you have root you can't pull those and if you do have root... Please share it with the forum.
[HTC Jetstream] bmw-boy:
I hope to have root but i unlocked my device t use it with another SIM
[HTC Jetstream] mattyass:
Good times... now I have two of them right next to each other rebooting - my replacement and my old one. I even activated a new sim...

This is getting frustrating
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
It is entirely location based. Last week I was in McLean VA. My device was in constant reboot. When I left and was closer to Baltimore it was fine. In Austin over the weekend... No problem. This week in Nashville... No reboots at all. I'll be in DC next week and am sure it will reboot.
[HTC Jetstream] Radarscratch:
Hey all,

This request may sound odd, but could you list out the last time ur device rebooted and in what city?

I'm in Dallas and my tablet stopped rebooting over the weekend.
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
Reboot last Friday in the Tyson's Corner area of VA.
[HTC Jetstream] mattyass:
Mine magically stopped the crazy reboots tonight. No update or anything. In Chicago and confirmed with another guy in Chicago on another forum that his stopped as well

Hmmm... wonder if it was AT&T
[HTC Jetstream] Radarscratch:
Boot Loop

:D. Things that make you go hum....
[HTC Jetstream] faddel:
I have the same problem !! I return it and I bought other one "Unlocked" I thought that will work, but,, still with same problem :confused::confused:

i will change the SIM card from at&t to t-mobile hopefully the problem will not occur.
[HTC Jetstream] Silverexp:
The ones not having or the reboots stopping, are you in a LTE market? Plus you could be a “soft” LTE market. ATT Intruder, Austin is not listed as a LTE market, but does your JS indicate LTE on the taskbar? San Antonio had LTE On since Feb/March. The people having the reboots, might be in markets where they are “lighting up” LTE in beta and those APNs/PSIDs might not be load in those new LTE SIMs cards.

Or, I could’ve been out of the cellular world too long… :o
[HTC Jetstream] Cam2505:
I am using my Jetstream Wifi only in the UK and have had no reboot issues so far

Cam
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
I'm not sure what the deciding factor is as I am in Nashville which according to the map is a non LTE market but I'm having no reboots. I'll be in McLean again next week and will see what happens then and report back.
[HTC Jetstream] bmw-boy:
I sure that there is something wrong with at&t simple cause since I bought it, unlock it no one reboot

We should have root to remove all of at&t applications
[HTC Jetstream] cookiesowns:
Interesting. I had a ROOTEDS-OFF dev jetstream here, it was on AT&T LTE in Washington went on wi-fi, it started to reboot loop. It fixed itself, but wasn't sure of the cause.
[HTC Jetstream] waterhurley:
ok i talked with HTC today and its a known bug with LTE connections (which boston is one) and they told me they are working on a fix.

this sucks because i cnat turn off the LTE and just use HSPA
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
See my response in other forum. Of we could get root and s-off we could
[HTC Jetstream] waterhurley:
I realize that. But how do we do it? I work for at&t so I'm going to change the imei to some returned Acer iconia, and get the dataplan movee to hspa only so the sim doesn't connect to LTE. Kind of a bummer since its blazing fast, but they better have a fix soon....:mad:
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
Realized I was stating the obvious.... Just getting a little pissed at how crippled this tablet is with all the lock downs. This "could" be the best tablet out there but it is not right now.
[HTC Jetstream] Silverexp:
waterhurley, have you asked if they will un-lock the sim to fix your boot loop? I’m pretty sure that’s not a warranty issue, since sim unlocking was done for travelling customers.
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
I'm back in Tyson's Corner with no reboots since I got here last night.
[HTC Jetstream] waterhurley:
does unlocking the sim fix the issue?
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
Doubt it
[HTC Jetstream] mrnserv:
Been using mine for about 8 days now in Chicago area, LTE and WiFi with SIM always in with no reboot issue since unuseable reboot issues last week. No explanation or response to pending trouble tickets from HTC nor AT&T . Have not seen and software updates before or since problem "went away" on its own.
[HTC Jetstream] waterhurley:
just an update, I'm connected to LTE just fine now and haven't had a rebooyt in over 6 hourss (total 1.9GB used)

I called aa=t&t and asked them, told them HTC SaaS working on an update...

HAving worked fo AT&T for 5 years I can tell you it was a sim profile error. SEvere one. PLus a tower host routing error. IM guessing they fixed it since it was tower side, espically when we lunch our first LTE phones this sunday. TECHNICALLY boston isnt LTE lit till sunday, hower im posting this from my jestream at the speed in my sig so im on LTE lol

PRoblem solved so far
[HTC Jetstream] ATT Intruder:
Glad to hear it... I'm sure it was while they were preparing to go live with lte as all those markets were experiencing issues but are now magically resolved. Imagine the impact of ATT launching 2 phones that have continuous reboots versus a few of us crazy people that bought really expensive crippled tablets.

Other than that, glad its fixed myself and you have no signature...
[HTC Jetstream] singang:
Interesting topic, I use my jetstream without SIM card since day 1 and that was about 2 months ago. I did however remove simlock. I live in Switzerland and since 3 days I am having the same issues as you guys used to have. Reboots all the time in landscape mode when trying to unlock, in portrait mode it does not happen however!!! I don't get it?!?
[HTC Jetstream] swee.yeo:
Thanks mlekas,

I live in Sydney. I have an unlocked Jetstream and it started the rebooting loop after a week. I have password protected on and I was unlocking it horizontally.

I took your tip and unlock in portrait mode and got in. I turned password protect off immediately.

I hope this helps someone.
[Android Apps and Games] tboooe:
On the Tasker user guide page, a screen brightness slider is called up via a widget. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this. I know I can create a task that does a Query Action for Screen Brightness. However, when I run this task, a bunch of other Tasker related items are brought up along with the brightness slider. Is there a way to just access the brightness slider?
[Android Apps and Games] crachel:
For posterity:

Tasker -> Query Action

within the Query Action's optional "Action" field put "Display Brightness"

To answer your question, no, you get all the other functions too. You're looking at an old Tasker screen shot there

Anyway to force epic to go to 1x when phone sleeps and back to 3g when it awakes?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sephiroth009:
You could get juice defender. It shuts off data when the screen is off. Sms and call will still come through though.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schnowdapowda:
That's not gonna save you any battery man. Forcing 1x just means it'll take that much longer to complete transfers wasting the same amount or even more. And I've played with juice defender.. its ok but its better to manually set each apps data sync if you can, cause juice defender is kinda heavy as I remember. I.e. I have facebook, pulse, gmail, and words set to manual update only.

Cd's or tapes?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] drumbum2112:
A friend I work with has a Droid that was originally verizon. They guy he bought it from flashed it to work on cricket and put a 2.1 rom onto it that has problems doing various tasks.

I know there are many newer roms that work great on the droid, but would he need to find a rom that is made for that particular purpose? Or is it something that is totally separate and not be affected?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Romp:
I just switched to Cricket. It is done outside of the rom.

I just searched and found it. You have to download a bunch of software and do several things with each one. Not difficult, just a lot of steps.

After you change carriers, any rom you install will use that one.

One other thing. There is a $15 fee from Cricket to add a different esn number. Just whine and they will waive it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] pomeroythomas:
I switched to cricKet as well. You need to set up your APN after each ROM switch or you'll have a bit of trouble using data and you won't be able to send or receive MMS. I didn't use the APN provided by the tutorial in this thread because I always got stuck sending MMS and I had to use QPST to get 3G working, but I've got it all working. What problems are you having, exactly?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] drumbum2112:
He is running a dirty version off Eclair that has numerous bugs. different features crash every time they are accessed.

It has been flashed before, and then put onto cricket. so if the steps to make it fully functional on cricket have been done, do they need to be redone after a newer rom is installed?
[Nook Color General] jorgeantonio:
Hello! I'm able to update to 1.3 and Follow the instructions for manual root. Everithing looks good, market place, apps, etc. Then I noticed that some of the apps with the root like flash, youtube, gmail, superuser,... have an update available. I tryed update one by one and reboot between each update. Just after Adobe Flash Update, the nook is stuck in the "Nook Color" screen when booting. The thing is that it is autmatically. I mean, I reintall everything and decide to not update the flash but in a time period I noticed that Nook is downloading the new Update for Flash.... Then stuck booting for ever.

Am I missing something?

So I've noticed people having multiple batteries and I assume each one of them will need a different calibration for the user to benefit fully from it. Does anyone want an app that lets you choose different calibration for each one of your batteries?

eg you have :

Calibration 1 = anker

calibration 2 = stock

and you're running stock, but when you insert your anker battery, it automatically changes to your anker calibration.

I'm actually coding this app already :p
