[Vibrant Themes and Apps] OldeCrow:
If you are seeing CWM 3 it's the wrong clockwork mod for stock or 2.2 builds for vibrant... Chances are you are seeing a modified cwm that is integrated into the kernel of whatever GB rom you are using. or you flashed the wrong one and it's somehow working for you. Reflash cwm through rom manager and choose the non mtd vibrant in the list.

If you still see cwm 3 when you boot then it's integrated into the kernel and your best bet is to ODIN back to stock and start again.

I dont know anything about these numbers so can someone tell me if this is good or not ,please .
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
It really dosent mean anything, just makes you think you have the fastest phone in the world.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Yea like said above don't sweat that ..it's nothing more than bragging rights and nothing tangible ..I've never broke 2500 in quadrant but my phone is silky smooth so i don't worry about it ..and if your gonna bench use cf bench ..I think it reflects a better more accurate measure of your device
[HTC EVO 3D] remf4i:
Can you guys tell me what ROM and kernel you are using I just can't seem to find one with good performance and battery life
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
If you wanna keep sense ..(which is my preference) I run team warm 2.3 with stock kernel ..I have been running stock kernel since jumping to 2.3.4 BC the kernels have made my phone buggy and I think my phone is plenty fast on stock ..but ppl are using bcblend and tiamat (sense version) and having good results ..and u have the option to overclock with both ..if you prefer stock Android (aosp) then there is only one option and that is of course cm7
[HTC EVO 3D] remf4i:
I ran warm on my of evo, I actually flashed the warm 2.3 today but I didn't like the Rosie at all I couldn't figure out how to get it to look like the one in his pic or even like the stock one, but I think I'm gonna flash it and try it anyway cause this battery life thing is killing me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ToastMan12:
I just unlocked my T-Mo GS2 and it's working great so far. Only thing I miss from my HTC Desire was that Mobile Data used to automatically switch off whenever I'm connected to wifi networks.

This doesn't seem to be the case here. Data indicator stays on even though I'm connected to my home wifi.

Is there a setting option that I'm missing somewhere?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeyinid:
I notice this as well. Its sporadic though. Data does sometimes drop off but not always.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zaventh:
Yes, yes! I thought it was my router or something. Sometimes the device will try and use mobile data even if I have a very weak cell signal and a very strong wifi signal. It usually works right after connecting to wifi, but after being connect for a long period of time, it seems to try and switch back to mobile data despite my wifi sleep policy being set to 'Never'.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Monk4Life:
Mine did this too all the time until I got a new Sim. I have only had it happen once since then.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aaron636r:
I'm having the same issue. New sim.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lucas155:
This issue has already been posted somewhere.... I think in the battery thread. The fix was to get the Llama app and set up a profile to switch wifi off when no wifi available, and to switch 4G off when connected via wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zaventh:
Wifi Fixer app in Market seems to be working nicely so far too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Monk4Life:
The only other thing I did besides a new Sim was a factory reset. Its only happened once since that and the new Sim. Also I turn wifi off and only on when I need it. Don't know if some are leaving it constantly on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Nismo13:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
It's staring me in the face as I write this. Wifi connected, 4G on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] atoore:
Yea had that problem aswell. I just turned off 4g when I'm on wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ingenious247:
The system is going to turn on your data when it needs to check info or upload/download data that verifies your device or is of a sensitive nature to the system, such as purchase authorizations in the market. When our data connection is popping up while connected to wifi and you're not doing anything (like making a market purchase), there could be undesirable transmission of data going on. Not to say it's definitely malicious in nature, however like I said I do see data transmissions taking place for no apparent reason. Could be some app or widget I use has an auto update that does something to activate it, but as long as the app keeps transmission and activity levels minimal, it's unlikely to pop up on a security app that alerts based on excessive data usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ToastMan12:
OK, good to know that I'm not alone in this.

It seems that data isn't being used much while connected to wifi. About of 1mb of traffic through all the time that I was connected to wifi. That was a few hours of usage last evening, and then the whole night on idle.

The question is how is this affecting battery life when it just sits there doing nothing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] brian6685:
Mine has been doing that too, I figured out it was an app making it happen. For me it was the app "beat the traffic" because as soon as I uninstalled it, mobile data went away while on wifi.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mjpacheco:
Same problem, same cause - except mine was a background thread for "Media Hub", which of course is one of those DRM crazy apps that will not work over WiFi. Ran it to just check it out, but nothing worth seeing there so that won't happen again.

When both were running, it seemed each app choose its own path for connectivity, probably related to how the app was coded. For example streaming from web via Flash used WiFi, but most other apps used 4G.

Edit: Add T-Mobile's "My Account" application as one that causes this to happen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jjday7:
This seems like a side effect of a tremendous amount of bloatware on this phone. Some of those magenta apps only work on the mobile network. Sometimes you will notice that wifi only will show and then all of a sudden you see both the 4g and wifi on at the same time. Hopefully root will take care of the problem.

If it was programmed correctly it would not allow those background apps to update on the 4g network but it seems the coding leaves it open to start up even when on wifi. This is an assumption but from my tests, it seems that's what's causing it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
if you guys believe this is a bug, please report it directly to samsung using the form in stickied in the forum

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikeyinid:
I reported as a bug prior to discovering its not really a bug. If you go into task manager and open the ram tab and kill all it goes away. I havent had this issue for 3 days now. Its gotta be one of the tmobile apps causing it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jjday7:
What are you killing when you go to the ram tab?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ToastMan12:
It's not going away for me when I "Exit All" in the Task Manager.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
that still sounds like it qualifies as a bug

it shouldn't need to do that basically.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] john21511:
On my sensation it does the same thing. I noticed it was the my account app doing it since it won't run on WiFi. It doesn't use up you data usage though. It uses roughly a 100 megs a day.

[Thunderbolt General] phayzon:
Hey guys. Over the past 2 weeks or so, I've noticed a dramatic drop in LTE speeds with my phone. Also, it now quite frequently completely drops 4G or a data connection all together. I've been running the 802 radios on SHIFTSENSE 1.5X and used to consistantly hit 5-7Mbits, now I struggle to break 0.75Mbit. Thinking this could be a sudden strange ROM or radio bug, I upgraded to the new 906 radios and tried Liquid 3.0. No difference.

Any tips or suggestions? Is my radio burnt out and in need of replacement? Anyone else in Philadelphia area PA experiencing the same?

Thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
i know if you use a lot of bandwidth(and are on the unlimited data) that Verizon at some point will slow down your connection for a bit. last month i used nearly 30GB and the last week of my billing cycle i noticied that my speed had also dropped considerably. coincidentally, at that time i decided to try out a new rom(switched from Synergy over to shiftao5p) and upon doing so my bandwidth went back to normal.

perhaps switching roms gets around Verizon's throttling ? in either case, i'm sure that if you did use a ridiculous amount of bandwidth one month and they did throttle you, they'd most likely set it back to normal on the new billing cycle.
[Thunderbolt General] phayzon:
If I said I used 2GB last month that would be an extreme exaggeration. I doubt I even used 1GB. I don't think I got throttled
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
did your area recently receive 4G?... they could still be working out the kinks here & there. additionally, it's possible there could have been a 4G outage or they may just be doing maintenance in your area.

have you called Verizon and asked?... a lot of times though if they are doing work on the towers in your area the Verizon reps won't have the info on the hand in regards to it. generally though, if you are in a 4G area and 4G is down(or considerably slow) for more then just a few days there could be a problem with the phone itself.

considering that it's been working for you though i doubt it's a software issue unless you've recently switched radios.

i have heard of people having reception issues though do to the antenna piece on the back panel of the phone(the panel you remove to take out the battery, sim card, sd card). try taking it to a local Verizon store and let them know your concern. they'll replace the panel for you for free and it may be the culprit.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] voxigenboy:
I currently have a Thunderbolt and managed to jack up the screen a bit + the bottom button lights don't come on anymore. No warrenty or insurance on it but Verizon offered to let me do a phone upgrade(even though it hasn't been 2 years yet).

I can get a Charge or Revolution for $200, Thundetbolt for $250, or a Bionic for $300(all new).

The TB's been the only 4G phone I've had so far and enjoyed regularly trying out new radios & roms(including some of the stuff Droid Th3ory had put out).

I figure since the Bionic is the most powerful one so far & DT ditched the TB to support it instead that maybe i'd give it a try also.

Is everyone happy with their Bionic? good roms? does it handle playing 720P .mkv video files well?

I guess there's always the iPhone 4S to.... ;)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MillionManMosh:
With a locked bootloader and at only a month on the market the selection of ROMs is a bit thin. The good news is it's a very solid phone straight out of the box and between the fairly dedicated community (especially compared with, say, the Charge) and Motorola's promise to give users the option to unlock their phones "eventually" it will probably be a good choice for the forseeable future.

As far as performance... to put it through its paces, I tried playing a 720p AVI file in soft-decoding mode while running two downloads in tTorrent in the background over 4G. Downloaded at a total of 1.5MBPS and played without stuttering. I was pretty impressed to say the least. Also killed 20% of the battery in 15 minutes, but I wouldn't try that on my i7 EliteBook without the charger, so hey.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] voxigenboy:
yeah i had the Incredible 2 for awhile and remember waiting until around the beginning of July when they announced the S-OFF we were all cheering.

i am assuming that PDANet works on the Bionic just fine to? other then that, do you or anyone else know if Skype works well on the Bionic?

I use Skype as my primary phone(to save on my monthly bill) on the TB. quality wise it's pretty crappy & a lot of the times you hear your own voice echoing back(even if you are somewhere with full 4G reception).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MillionManMosh:
Haven't messed with hotspot a whole lot on this phone, but as for Skype, I can tell you that the most recent build (which came out about the same time as I swapped my Charge for the Bionic) introduced a whole ton of issues and I haven't used it much since. The first few calls I got the ringer kept on going through the entire call and I haven't signed in much since.
[LG Optimus 3D] linuxluver:
I'm in New Zealand and I bought an LG Optimus 3D via "Mobicity" because I wanted a model that is compatible with the Telecom XT WCDMA network. They sent me a Rogers phone - the LG P925G. It is unlocked.

I love the thing. It's awesome.

But it does raise the question of how I might get any updates. My IMEI will be for a Canadian phone. Does Rogers SIM-lock this phone?

I've tried LG Update and selected Canada as the country. It lists the version of firmware I am currently on (v10C). There do not appear to be any updates.

If there is a way to check for OTA updates, I can't find it in the menus in the phone.

Anyone have any answers to these questions? I've been reading through various threads and most relate to the LG-P920, which is sold here in NZ by Vodafone. But I don't use Vodafone as their new data plans suck and I can get 4 times the data from Telecom for the same money.

I'd like to work out how to update my P925G the "normal" way,if that's possible. I'm happy to root the phone and flash other firmware if there is no other way, but I do not want to disturb or break the 3D functionality of the phone as that is the primary reason I bought it.
[LG Optimus 3D] darshanbangre:
Hi Mate... I have the same phone P925g its from Rogers Canada.... It is unlocked... but am afraid if you flash to other roms of P920 u may loose network connectivity like me.... am struggling for it... ! now it is more like a gadget than the phone.
[LG Optimus 3D] boboche:
I'm fighting to find if this telephone has a radio-specific chipset for rogers or it's firmware-locked to rogers as I am trying to carry it to videotron... trying to locate the base roger firmware to start poking around since I can't source this information on the net...
[LG Optimus 3D] darshanbangre:
Trying exactly the same thing.... the issue is with network radio ... hope its not chipset issue...how to solve this now...
[LG Optimus 3D] boboche:
I have an app reporting the radio is an XMM 6260 which is listed as pentaband on intel's website, but I can't seem to source a specification sheet with frequency lists...
[LG Optimus 3D] darshanbangre:

[LG Optimus 3D] boboche:

Update will be when???

Hi all, I too purchased the 925g from mobicity in Brisbane here and what an awesome piece of technology...

It came branded as Rogers and I spent double the amount of the p920 just to get the 925's NextG compatability... it flies on their network here....

But I am really wanting to go to 2.3 as all of you are too. I too have tried the Canada settings and several others in the hope of getting the update but have had no luck.

I too will not use a custom mod in the fear of losing my dearest features... the 3D.

If anyone has any further info or timeframes I would be all ears ;)

Cheers

Chris:D
[LG Optimus 3D] linuxluver:
I guess the thing to do is monitor Rogers and see if / when an update comes out. One was due out in October...which has very few days left now.

Or just buy an HTC Evo 3D as HTC are very good about Android updates....and it's a higher spec phone anyway.

BTW - Ive worked out how to make 3D videos for uploading to YouTube that will also play perfectly on the LG Optimus 3D. My YouTube channel is "linuxluver". The last 4-5 videos should work perfectly in landscape. If you want to know how to do it, post a comment on a video or send me a message on YT.

I have a p925g, Rogers branded - actually on Rogers in Canada.

I tried flashing up v21a base band, but I has massive problems with getting a signal and (strangely) my wifi. It really wasn't useable unless you are cool with edge only. Gross.

There where a few sweet spots where I could stand and get proper hpsa though, so it sort of almost worked...

My advice would be to not try it, its kind of a long procedure to go back to froyo.

We are pretty much stuck until Rogers decides to do something about it. Its a piss off ;(
[LG Optimus 3D] Audi2Audi:
Good Morning!

The topic of this thread is semi-related to the GB Baseband for Canada thread.

As I have stated in that thread, I am using a Rogers P925 that is unlocked and using the Bell network.

I flashed the GB KDZ file (twice before it worked) and I have successfully upgraded to Gingerbread without any network issues!

My network speeds when running speedtest lie on average in the 2.5Mbps-5.5Mbps range (which is exactly the same as when I was usuing Froyo; HSDPA+ will have to wait for the official update!

There is a mobilesyrup article you may google which states Rogers intends to roll out an update piror to the end of the year.

Those of you that are brave may want to flash the GB KDZ (you can akways go back to Froyo quite easily if it does not work). Otherwise, the update appears to be expected in a few weeks!

In the meantime I am enjoying the use of Acurom! :D

Thank you, Audi.
[LG Optimus 3D] FZRaceR:
SO glad to see other P925G users...

Hi, I am in Australia, Brisbane and also have a Rogers P925G. I grabbed it over the 920 as it supports our Telstra Nextg network here. It has amazing speed and coverage. Well at least it did until I put GB on it using the 21a_00.kdz that I think we are all using and now instead of the 4G icon in the network status I get 3G and sometimes H but the signal strength has dropped away to less than half or worse everywhere.

My guess is that the GB build is not using the proper radios for NextG. 850Mhz I think from memory but I am pretty sure the phone must be using the 2100Mhz network only. The upgrade to GB has impressed me but I want to go back to froyo network speeds.

You say here that it is easy to get the rogers software back on there but I have had no luck at all, not through the update tool, through PC Suite, through trying to unbrick it because it was bricked for a bit too until I found the recovery mechanism..

My question I guess is... Is there a way to get GB to recognize the correct radio hardware with the 21v_00.kdz build and if not, how the heck do I get it back to the original firmware please... I am struggling and would really love some help.

Am stoked with the 925 though and have since also found a cheap second hand unlocked 920. It went to GB on optus no worries. It interestingly gives me the very same signal strength with a nextg sim and that is why I think the 850 radio is just not being used.
[LG Optimus 3D] FZRaceR:
Might have found something

In my quest to get radios working on correct frequencies I found a post here that talked about hidden menus. One of them ... 3845#*920# punched into the phone gives you the ability to play with the bandwidth settings radios etc.

I set mine to wCDMA 850 and have been much happier since ;)

Hope it gives food for thought...
[LG Optimus 3D] j_mullet:
Thanks so much. I have had no luck with this phone since I've gotten it, and that really helped increase the network speeds I've been getting. now I just need to figure out how to get signal on custom roms, and find and flash a radio file for this thing.
[LG Optimus 3D] 0space_monkey0:
i have been playing around with that.

GSM 850 gives me FULL edge service. the bar has not even dipped...

WCDMA i put between 850/1900 and saw little difference.
[LG Optimus 3D] salsadoom:
Just for fun I emailed rogers support about the update to this phone. Hilarious, these guys :)

My first reply was..

Huh? Thats not even the same question I asked! They didn't even so much as read it :P Awesome guys. But hey, maybe I just got a dummy. So I replied and said something along the lines of "No, not a new phone, just an update you promised me when I bought it." and I got another reply!

Oh, progress! Oh wait, no. Thats for a Nexus One -- another phone entirely. Again, they didn't even bother to read the question.

But apparently I'm a valued customer :)

A forum post I found on that same forum contained this troubling post though,

Thats kind of annoying if its true -- p920 and p925 are pretty damn similiar phones except for the radio... whats the big deal here anyway, I don't quite get why getting an update out for this phone is such a pain in the ass.

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 3D] j_mullet:
Well I am assuming that most of you posting in here are on rogers. I am on Fido, and I am wondering if any of you have gotten any roms workning on this phone other than stock? What's the difference between 925 and 925g? Why do I only get one bar when I switch up roms? Is there no way to extract our radio file to zip, flash a custom rom, then reflash rogers radio? I came from a nexus s, then an xperia play both of which are very customizable. This phone seems to be a nightmare, I wonder if this is a mistake getting this thing and I've only had it 3 or 4 days.
