[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrycycle:
Question, are the ones having the issue on rooted stock rom? I know the thunderbolt rooted running stock rom has the tethering stop working. I'm on cm 7 so the carrier apk that checks for that is not in cm7. I still tether my Xoom daily.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halient:
If you are just using one of the programs from the market it may be a build issue, On one of my Evos I had an issue that made it so that only one of the programs worked and it only worked in pre-build 010 other then that it never worked until I flashed MikFroyo.

Just for kicks I checked to see if tethering is still working from the unlocked sprint hotspot and it is fine on my hardware 004 evo 4G
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compsciasaur:
Wireless tethering is a b---- to get working on an EVO 3D (CDMA). Barnacle and Wireless Tether worked when I was using my Temp Root, but not with 4G turned on.

I fully rooted, and then I couldn't find the wireless tethering apps in the market any more! I hadn't backed them up with Titanium! However, I found the APKs elsewhere, installed them and still had problems (either they wouldn't work or I couldn't get 4G to work). Long story short, I upgraded Wireless Tether to 2.0.2 and the screen resolution is wrong, but I can do 3G and 4G wireless tethering!

However, the first time I tested my 4G tethering speed, I got only 2Mbps. I tried it again and got 1Mbps. Tested once more and got less than 1Mbps. So it's not perfect.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsabasid:
Is there any way to lock my Optimus 7 into 3G signal and not let it fall back to EDGE/GPRS when 3G is available with weakest signal? Happens a lot and its annoying.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
The default behavior is to use the highest-speed connection. If it's falling back to EDGE, that's almost certainly because the error threshold was too high for useful connectivity.

There is a way to turn off 3G (which is also much more battery-hungry) but I don't know of one to turn off EDGE. You could look around in the disagnostics app for a way to specify the thresholds used, though, and myabe tweak them (the HD7 diag app shows the current setup but doesn't let us change it).

One more trick I would like to share is to create a contact with the name as 3G and the phone no as ##3282# and pit it to the start so that when u restart the phone u have easy access to the menu access to the menu.:)

[HTC Rezound] yashromhtc:
So, the HTC Rezound (aka Vigor is out). The Phone has a 720p 4.3 inch SLCD which produces very crisp and high pixel density impressions. It runs on 1.5 ghz dual core, 1 Gb, Beats enabled and has 32 GB memory.. 16Gb inbuilt and 16 Gb Sd card ( i say beats is non sense.).

The body design is a lot like the original Droid Incredible, with red trim, haptic navigation buttons and interior. When you take off the backplate of this phone, it’s all red.

and yes it has gingerbread with ics promised in 2012 early.The phone looks stunning.

I want one! Just got my thunderbolt a few months ago, wish I had waited..
[HTC Rezound] Serinety:
I wish I could pre-order now. lol.

friends were saying that because it wont have ICS it will fail.. well with the promised ICS updrage less than 2 months after release, there is now no reason to choose the nexus over the rezound.

bedsides, i just had a 6 month stint with the droid charge by samsung, what a POS this phone is, its on ebay now, I cant wait to ship it away to some sap.
[HTC Rezound] theGross1:
HTC and Verizon don't have a very good track record for keeping announced updates on time. Remember the eris?
[HTC Rezound] Serinety:
no but I remember the droid incredible... (had it for a year) was always updated. My friend had a samsung captivate on att, which he bought after the Dinc had been out a few months, and I always had a more updated version of android. He switched to Verizon after the experience .

And with HTC and verizon publicly announcing their commitment to upgrade and update this device, It seems like a no brainer.

Are you suggesting that with the eris they said explicitly it would get 'X' updates and they never lived up to that?
[HTC Rezound] jbh00jh:
You don't need to worry about the update schedule, that is what XDA is for. The Devs here will make the updates available for you before they are released to the public. :)
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Can't wait to switch over to Verizon for this! US Cellular is terrible and their phone selection is poor.

[HTC Sensation] Veritasvii:
Hey was looking for a little help or guidance.

The touchscreen on my HTC Sensation 4g stopped working. Everything else works, volume rockers, power button. Even on the home screen it shows the volume increase/decrease but none of the apps are touchable and the lockscreen won't unlock either.

I used to be on Cyanogen Alpha8 when this happened before. I flashed to alpha9 and it fixed the issue. This time nothing is helping. I wiped the phone a couple times now, including wiping the sd card even and have deleted/installed Cyanogen 7.1 alpha10 and Android Revolution HD a couple of time seeing if that could fix the issue. Apparently it's not the rom as neither worked.

Recovery and everything works fine, but even when I did a backup restore it didn't fix the issue. Is this hardware?

TLDR- Touchscreen and lower 4 android buttons do not respond. Physical buttons all still respond.

Is there some screen lock key that I enabled and don't even know about or something?

First it happened when phone was 10 days old, now it happened again 10 days later.

Thank you for any help.
[HTC Sensation] septix:
If you remove your cover, you can se a "polished" square on the right side. Make sure that it has good contact with the small metal "plate" on the right side of your phone. It's the touch ground, and I've seen people resolve their issues by checking that.

There is a thread about this, I can't find it now though. Using my mobile. Search for "sensation touchscreen issues" or something like that.
[HTC Sensation] Veritasvii:
Yeah I've tried extracting it a bit to get better contact. It's not that the touchscreen stutters in working, it doesn't work at all. When I'm on the lockscreen and pull the ring on Android HD rom it doesn't budge even the slightest. No notion that it is recognizing any kind of touch input. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll post back if it fixes the issue somehow later but currently contacting that small little square better hasn't helped.

I've read up on a few touchscreen issues like that but couldn't find anything so thought to post on here. Thanks again for the tip but touchscreen still not working.
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
Try doing the procedure from my sig. I'd suggest to discharge first, leave overnight with no battery, and charge with no touching... It's all in that thread.

But... I still haven’t heard of a case when the screen didn't work AT ALL. Perhaps your issue is a bit more drastic and can’t be fixed so easily :\
[HTC Sensation] Veritasvii:
Tried it. Didn't work. Put in foil as well, that also didn't work. :(

Thank you for the suggestion though.

Touchscreen still does not function AT ALL, with or without the back cover on so it's not the usual grounding pin issue I think. Could a cable pop out somewhere inside the phone to disconnect touch feedback without disabling the actual screen? Anyone have any hypotheses?

I would like to exhaust all methods before cracking open the phone and voiding the little warranty seal just in case.

Very annoyed at this phone/htc. Thank you for all the help on here guys and gals.
[HTC Sensation] zmfl:
If you already tried clearing all the cashes, flashing several roms and different kernels, than it's hardware. Take it to a service center... :/

hey, any luck on solving your problem? i have precisely the same problem with my htc sensation as well. was working perfectly but now it wouldnt respond to any thing at all. it wouldnt even let me use ruu to restore it back to the original firmware. i really dont want to crack it open. i have ordered a new battery touse to test it. will kep you posted. did you manage to solve yours?

fix for none working screen

Hi there " dude that started this thread V*****"

i have managed to fix my screen issue. it involves having to take the phone apart VERY CAREFULLY. The flex behind the screen sometimes comes loose. all you need do is just fit it back in. You have to be careful though as there is a possibility you might damage the phone. oh, doing this will VOID your warranty. look on youtube for how to take the phone apart. i just bought another one on eBay and am going to fix it. best of luck and let me know how you get on.
[HTC Sensation] dborota:
So I have this issue as well. Can you tell me what exactly you did to fix it? What flex came loose? And what did you buy on Ebay to fix?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] hp1:
I did this last night and managed to fix the touch screen. The flex is located on the underside of the top PCB, the one that has the little chip on the cable. Mine looked ok but I pushed it in gently and did a quick test just by booting the phone before putting it all back together.

If your screen looks fine but doesn't respond to touch at all then I suspect this is also your problem. Worked for me :thumbup::)
[HTC Sensation] lifeisfaked:
I know this thread has been inactive for a while but just thought I'd mention I just had this problem of dead touchscreen and fixed it simple by squeezing my phone! I took the battery out and pressed all over in the hope of pushing in any loose cable and it is perfectly back to normal :) just thought I'd mention this to save any potential future sufferers from taking their phone to pieces!

[HTC Sensation] KrellaKrentoshi:
ditto

I have had this issue twice! I have a Motorola droid 4, and the touchscreen simply goes dead. First time it happened, I had just hung up with Verizon Customer Service. I fixed it by changing the slider/touchscreen assembly off of a different D4. Now it's happened to that assembly too. I"m starting to think it's a software issue. I will try this fix however. Dry heat was suggested as a fix on a different forum. Hope this helps someone.
[HTC Sensation] KrellaKrentoshi:
I tried this on my droid 4. I followed the directions for the .nbh file, and when i got into the bootloader, nothing happened. it ended up booting normally. so I tried the .zip file. same thing, I got into the bootloader, nothing happened, it timed out and booted normally. I am at a loss as to what I did wrong. any suggestions? :confused:
[HTC Sensation] hugo2690:
I should have mentioned that this method only works on the HTC bootloader as it is very different from other bootloaders.

Try Odin 1.85 then take the battery out of your phone plug USB cable into your computer hold the volume keys up and down simultaneously plug cable into your phone meanwhile your still holding down your volume keys then put your battery back in. Be sure to have Odin files already placed where they belong and make sure you get them from a post that has alot of positive feedback,preferably one that has a good step by step how to instructions, you'll find all you need to know in the sgs4g Bible everything you need to know is in those Bible posts good luck to you it sux not having your phone believe me I've soft bricked and boot looped my phone several times even after successfully flashing firmwares several times correctly don't ever get to comfortable flashing one little mistake is detrimental to the life of your phone good luck bro.once you place your phone back into proper working condition make sure to flash Dr.honks kj1 kernal with voodoo lag fix cwm recovery and root permissions pre installed that really helps prevent the use of having to use Odin or heimdall to revive your phone again.then flash away but carefully and aware always of what files you put into your phone.

Hello guys,

I've got a question that I couldn't find an answer on the internet. It is abou two versions of Android. My question is:

- Wich is the Best and Bugless version for Xperia X8? 2.2 or 2.3?

I don't really mind the features, all I care about is stability, bugless, a battery life and finally compatibility of android programms. I don't want to "force" my phone, I want it light and simple.

Can you give me advice? I want to know if 2.3 is heavier than 2.2.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codfreak:
2.3 is cooler, but you could experience lag/battery drain/sensor errors.

But in my opinion, it´s ready for daily use.

I've tried 2.2 and 2.3 for a long time now...

IMO the latest 2.3.7 ROMS like GingerDX are the best out there: they have the

latest features

,

security fixes

, and most importantly,

they are still being improved

.

I see no bugs in the latest v19 release (except for that flotation point which is actually not a bug but a tweak that can be solved by replacing 1 file. :D )

2.2 roms have unsolved camera problems (ie: try analyzing images in google goggles and you will know what I mean), huge vulnerability issues, and other bugs which I don't recall now ('cause I moved on several months ago) XD

There is no such thing as huge batt differences between both ROMS... If you want more batt you will need to choose your apps wisely and follow some tips (like the ones at my signature). ;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBolho:
GingerDX v019 (Android 2.3.7) is very stable and battery life is the same as the stock 2.1, at least in my experience.

Turning off data connection does not work for me because that causes my phone to not receive or make calls (but sms service works, no problem), and that seems to be the only bug at the moment for me.

Update: Thanks to dsaklein i resolved this bug by reinstalling GDX via CWM instead of xRecovery.
