Too thick. Looking for something that fits with stock battery cover. Also Samsung would be nice as the China knockoffs seem worse than the 1600.

hey guys,

did any of you know which build supports viber?I'm currently using ARCdroid..any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fenrry:
I wonder if anybody is using this phone in Mobi here in Canada, a friend of mine got one and the first thing we noticed was that it takes FOREVER to pick the signal, even u do a manual search is painfully slow to stick to Mobi's network, also the Wifi spot is locked, and so we wonder if anybody knows a way to work around these issues without rooting (at the moment !!!).

Thanks for any input!

Btw, the phone is great, thin, light, no way that crappy mapple mockup will be even close, I mean, it does even come with Si....I mean Voice command, which works amazing! :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] goonx:
I don't think there's another radio out yet so, i think the radio searching issue you're having isn't fixable?

I haven't heard anyone complain about the signal search so maybe it's your area or something with your particular phone. Try setting it to WCDMA preferred/only. Also, call into Wind and ask for a network reset.

Also, it seems like the wifi-spot is locked down by the t-mobile ROM. I doubt there's any fix for that other than rooting and installing a non-crippled ROM. I stand to be corrected though as I have yet to get mine in.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Mitallust:
I know on mine when I do a Factory Reset it does take a minute or two to find the Mobilicity signal, but then it locks on, and is fine when I restart the phone. No work around for the Wifi Tethering unless you root and freeze the Tethering Manager. Sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
it works, i'm using it on Wind as you can see ;)

just set the phone to look for WCDMA only as mentioned above, and it will bypass scanning the Rogers, Bell, Telus signal

so you get the Wind and Mobi towers to show up quickly that way
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 513263337:
Funny you have the same problem as couple of other guys here (including me):

http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...-S2x-unlocked-Wont-find-network-automatically

My response remains the same:

It's definitely a problem with Mobilicity not your phone. It happens to me too when I boot up the phone it says "No Service" even though I previously registered with Mobilicity network and phone setting is set to register automatically. Don't worry. Boot up the phone, do nothing and wait for 2-3 minutes and see what happens. I usually have to wait 1 minute or so for the phone to auto-register to Mobilicity, not instant.

Also, in your mobile settings, set it to "WCDMA only" instead of the default "GSM / WCDMA auto" because Mobilicity uses WCDMA bands only. It may speed some things up.

Also, if you want to speed things up even more, go to your dialer, dial *#*#2263#*#*, select "WCDMA Band Preference", and then select "WCDMA 1700" so that the phone looks by default in the 1700 band (the band the Mobilicity uses exclusively).

---------- Post added at 09:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

This is not true.

You can root your phone, use Titanium Backup (paid version) to freeze the system app called "Tethering Manager", after that you can do wifi-hotspot with no problem. T-Mobile uses that software to block this feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
this is interesting

in WIND i do not have that problem

i power on the phone and it automatically picks up the WIND tower by itself during boot time

so by the time you see the lock screen, it already says WIND Home
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 513263337:
In the (Howard Forum) thread that I linked to, a lot of people are having this problem with registering this phone with Mobilicity. And I can personally vouch for it that every time phone boots up it takes an additional 2 minutes before you see Mobilicity.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fenrry:
Thx guys, so I was rt about switching the AWS setting, still it bothers me, in any case and in regards to the Wifi hotspot, what about after installing a ROM, does it stay locked or the app becomes the standard manager for the Wifi hotspot?, I wish I could rewrite the app on the stock ROM but I don't really know how to get into that...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Liquid5n0w:
My SGS2x works fine with Mobilicity, been using it with them since the 30th.

wifi tethering worked from day 1 using the stock telus install. I'm now using several custom ROMs, and overall I'm really happy with the phone on mobilicity. their 3g internet leaves lots to be desired though, perhaps it will improve, but it is an unlimited carrier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] goonx:
He was asking for a non-root solution.....Glad there's another way out there using root. But I think if you root the phone, you mind as well throw another ROM on there. Removes all the bloatware as well.

There's a stripped down version of the stock ROM. Never tried it but maybe that will work. You should just use one of those custom roms if you're going to root it. They have tweaks and other whatnots that improve your phone's performance. Once you go custom, you don't want to go back to stock.

Agreed, it's been brutal. Hopefully they can get a few more cell towers up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Liquid5n0w:
The issue isn't cell towers, the issue is back end internet, after the IP transmission gets through their cell network to whatever centre they use, the internet connection to that that all of Toronto shares it ****ty and can't keep up. It's not a single overloaded tower that's the issue, as you can see by doing constant speed tests while roaming around.

Backend internet connections are expensive, especially the bandwidth on them. Small carrier can't afford to keep up to it's unlimited bandwidth demands.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fenrry:
Well, this is not rooted yet so that's a huge difference since ur phone will for sure include modifications to the radio, in all (I just figured it) is about Samsung, I have a N8 and a NS, compared the 2 with the SMGS2 (T989) and there is a thing in common between the NS and the T989, getting signal from cold boot or out of dead spots is a pain, my N8 picks the signal almost immediately, on the NS running stock it takes a good 2 to 3 mins (or more if out of cold boot) to get signal but the NS running MIUI makes things faster, I presume and since the stock SMGS2 takes a long time (like the NS) the same will happen when u run the phone with a modded ROM, it will pick signal faster.

So I guess it's all about rooting :p
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] goonx:
I agree with the backend connection. But I think it's a bit of both. Some areas don't have as many cell towers as others. (in my area, i only have two) So I have a feeling it's both rather than just the backend.

Hopefully, they have a good new subs-to-upgrade interval so the speeds will get better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
well, regarding the nexus S

a lot of people in WIND also complains that it always stays in "emergency mode calls only, blah blah blah" basically unable to attach itself to the network.

i seldomly get that on my Nexus S, but that's probably because it's customized

but on the T989, i don't have that problem even in stock

so that's actually very nice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fenrry:
That reinforce my statement, is not really the network but mostly the way Samsung works the radios on their phones on the 1700 Mhz freq or at least for us, don't know in the US.

My NS running stock is a pain, modded works nicely, takes a bit longer than my Nokia but gets the network faster than running stock Android, I bet the same happens with the T989.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
I am currently on Mobilicity in Vancouver with a crappy cheap phone and it has a hell of a time getting reception on the network. I live in East Van near victoria and I get reception in only 1 room in my place. I am planning on getting the Telus GS2X in a couple of weeks. Would this help my problem? Can anyone who lives in Vancouver and has the GS2X comment on his/her reception in east van?

Thanks alot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
a new phone might not help if the tower is physically too far from your location

however a good phone with good reception could improve your problem

the only way to find out is to try the phone in your house and see if it works for you

On the other hand I have a couple of new questions:

1> Is there a way to fix/access the MMS?, on Mobi I'm getting errors when receiving MMS, the pixs come all blurry.

2> Any way to enable the Wifi Tethering?, using the T-Mo model is just impossible unless u have the T-Mo sim which is not the case and I haven't seen any of the existing ROM's addressing the issue (sorry if I missed the part, so pls let me know if it's fixed :) )

Thx
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] goonx:
1) check the apn settings and match it to the mobilicity ones. Head over to hofo and there's a thread about it

2) you need to root your phone &, put a custom rom on it. There's another way of disabling a process but I suggest the former

[General Questions and Answers] cthulu:
Hi

I know it has been posted before, but I am not yet satisfied with the solutions. Situation is that I have my mp3 collection on my NAS, I can access it via upnp, itunes server or samba.

However, there doesn't seem to be UPNP player that fully supports my setup (my mp3s are in folders Music\A\Ark\Album1\trackXX.mp3) and I am only able to play single albums. Besides that, they usually do not look very nice on my Honeycomb tablet and do not support headphones control.

Second option was mounting CIFS partition and use normal music player app (my favourite is "Cubed"). This works, but my NAS is being accessed all the time because of "media scans" etc, so it cannot properly hibernate.

Is there something better? I am getting quite jealous on iPhone/iPad users who can easily stream their whole music collection via built in iPod app.

Cheers
[General Questions and Answers] bklaas92:
I also have a NAS at home, with SMB enabled. I use ES File Explorer to play files from the NAS. You could also enable the media server on your NAS, and use 'UPnPlay' from the Android Market. Good luck.:)
[General Questions and Answers] cthulu:
Well that's what I tried - both samba and upnp. Samba works but Android keeps checking my samba share too often, draining my battery and preventing my NAS to sleep. The other option (upnp) works, but my directory structure isn't recognized by bubbleupnp and I can only play single folder. So I am still looking for more optimal solution ;-)

If you mean the checkerboard pattern:

If you open a web page with lots of graphics, and zoom in then zoom out(pinch fingers together) you might see a checkerboard pattern behind the smaller web page window that resembles the photoshop way of showing a transparent background.

It works for CDMA devices, and it getting fairly stable. There's still some work to be done before GSM folks can join the party. Patience.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SgtMac02:
Tim, it sounds like maybe you might be able to benefit from installing GenY dualboot. It will allow your phone to boot directly to the Android OS without you having to manually run Haret from inside WinMo each time. It loads partway into WinMo (just enough to get whatever files it needs to run) then gives you a boot screen where you can choose which OS or choose for it to automatically boot to either OS.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
This is good advice. It's pretty good software, simple & to-the-point.

With that said, ACL (the developer who is mainly working on NAND development) is getting a GSM RHOD donated to him soon (I think he said it's in mail...) so once he hashes out the basics for GSM, it should apply to all GSM devices and they'll be able to join the party. So it won't be tomorrow by any means, but this is very good news for GSM users.
