[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:
If you haven't tried it yet, reset your router. That fixes the majority of Wi-Fi issues out there. If that doesn't work, it may be your router itself. Certain routers have more issues with mobile phones than others.

You may want to go to a friends house and try connecting to his router and see if you can troubleshoot and isolate the issue. Either way, best of luck... :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kordnas:
Damn you sitecom router!!! :o

Alright, one thing I hadn't tried until now was to restart the router. That fixed everything including (for whatever reason) the lack of the Wifi symbol!!

So if that is possible feel free to delete this thread! I didn't find the option anywhere...

Sorry for the unjustified disturbance :rolleyes:

Background:

Ever since I've had this phone I couldn't get a data signal while roaming in areas where I knew one was available. Old phones would get data while roaming without a problem.

The Epic Touch would just give a notification saying "you have lost data connectivity" or something.

I understand certain Sprint roaming areas just plain don't have data available. This howto can not fix that.

What this howto does help you do is get a data signal while roaming in areas where a roaming data signal is available.

Credit:

This was apparently discovered by someone on the sprint forums, and I found a reference to it on the Android Central forums, so I do not know who credit goes to for discovering this.

What to Do:

It's best if you are in a roaming-only area to test this, or if you can force roaming. You'll also need to be on the stock kernel (rooted is fine) so you have the ability to update your Profile.

Let's do that now. Go to the Settings menu and tap About Phone - system updates - update profile and wait for it to complete, then tap ok.

From the home screen, tap Menu - Settings - Wireless and Networks - Roaming - Roaming Settings.

Un-check all options here (voice and data for both domestic and international)

With no boxes checked, tap the "Data" box under domestic roaming. Tap only this one, not voice.

You will get a box asking you to confirm. Click yes. This will then automatically enable voice as well.

Another pop up with a red box will ask if you really want to use data while roaming. At this point you can tell it to never ask again and click Roam.

Now you can use data while roaming where it's available!

Update:

after trying this multiple times to verify it works, occasionally the final pop-up with the red box disappears before you can read it. I was able to long press the home button to show recent apps, then tap the "Data Roaming Guard" app. Then I could tap Roam.

This is critical for me as sometimes I am in roaming areas for work and I need internet and this phone is the only access I have. Now I can use it!

Report back with any corrections or feedback. Mileage may vary.

I don't know if it's necessary to update the profile. I have that step in there because that is the sequence I used. If you try it without updating the profile, let me know. This would allow people on a custom kernel to do this too.

I spent an hour and a half with Sprint yesterday on the phone trying to resolve this. They turned me over to new reps three times (including to the international support department) each one not aware of my issue so I'd have to explain everything again.

Finally I started digging on the web and found the tip on AC. Took me 2 minutes.

Thanks for sharing this. I will try this out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drivinfast247:
I have the same issues. My girlfriend has an EVO and she will have data while roaming, and I wont. Even if were right next to each other.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bayviewplace:
Thanks, this worked great for me & did not have to update profile. I am on stock rooted deodexed rom.

Worked for me! Thanks, that was very annoying!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
thanks! now i can play wwf at work lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I did this awhile back when I saw it on the AC forums. I also read this phone cannot roam on PCS networks because of a limitation in the radio so there still may be times it won't roam when other phones will.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Henri Blanche:
Greetings All!

I was able to make roaming calls before; but I followed these instructions and now I can use roaming data as well. Fortunately Atlanta is a pretty good 4G metro area so I rarely need to use roaming data. Usually either 3G or 4G is available. Nonetheless it's nice to have the option.

FYI I forced roaming by using the Roam Control app and have verified that for the first time with this phone I have a nonzero "Sprint 3G Data Roaming" entry in the detailed usage screen on the Sprint website.

Many thanks!

Cheers, Henri
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoMatt:
Ok, glad this is working for people! I know it was the biggest gripe I had about the phone by far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aleph23:
Agreed. And such a simple solution. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DomButcher:
Hi all, as the title says, I randomly get this issue. I just wake up the phone and see this message here, although I have SIM card still in phone and didn't do earlier anything with it. It is sometimes 2x a week, but sometimes 2x two weeks, it's random. Earlier I just got the phone into Airplane mode and then back and it was OK, but now I have to power the phone off and pull out the SIM. SIM card doesn't seem to be damaged. I tried searching several times, but didn't find anything. Should I just replace the SIM with the new one or is it something worse, that isn't related with my SIM ?

Thank you.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaed.43725:
I had A Downloader and it worked fine yesterday until my phone bricked and I had to recover it. Now my downloader will not work. It said it could not make the folder on the SD Card for it. And when I went to look for it I found a bunch of weird files. I have included a screen shot of it. Any help is appreciated.

I am running JT114's Vanilla Gingerbread, and have deleted the weather/news and terminal built into the ROM.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sageDieu:
Don't see a screenshot. If it's a downloader app, just uninstall it and reinstall it. That usually fixes the random weird things like this that happen from backing up and restoring some apps.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaed.43725:
Screen shot added. I have uninstalled and re-installed it. Yet it still tells me no.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laureanop:
That's your SD card being corrupted by the Rom. Back up anything you got left to your computer, because eventually everything will disappear.

You either have to get a class 6 or higher SD card or go back to a TW Rom.

Do it now, I'm serious , before you completely ruin your SD .

The explanation for this is that mtd roms don't play nice with some SD cards, no matter how you install them or how you prepare your SD.

As a safety measure, back up the contents of your SD before converting to mtd, and daily thereafter.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] mikeeo019:
Im sorry but I didn't really understand

1. Did you try to root your phone? And now you want to go back to stock?

2. You managed to root, but it's stock after reboot? Only the superuser app left, but no root rights? And you want it removed? If so, the solution is simple. Menu-->Settings-->Applications-->Manage applications. Scroll down until you find it.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] mikrokatevas:
are you sure its going to work for my galaxy s plus?sorry about my worries byt i have read so many things that i am so confused if you can answer me if its going to work for greece and if you can point my to the procedure???

Google talk will not stay signed in, or is randomly disconnecting and reconnecting later. I've checked my sync and power settings it shouldn't be an idle issue or data connection problem because i have full signal. I didn't have this issue with the Aria?

is it giving you any kind of error message? I had that problem ALL THE TIME with my blackberry torch. It kept logging me out saying internal error. That's honestly one of the reasons i got the android. So google apps would work right. I've not had any issues with my google talk. Have you tried logging in with another account just to see if it makes any difference?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] russell1997:
no error at all, i lauch the app and it either greys out and i have to back out and lauch again to get the signing in message or i get the signing in message.

I never had these issues with my Aria, i wondered if this version (with the camera/voice options) might have a bug?

tried multiple accts same issue.

i called HTC and the guy said hit home screen instead of backing out of the app to force it to keep running but that did no good. he also asked if i had a task manager and I said only the htc one that came with the phone. He said android comes with that now???? anyway i told the htc one to not start on startup just to see if that was causing any issues but no change.

i still randomly get disconnected from gtalk.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] radi0chik:
I don't know what to suggest then, that's strange :( Until we get root it'd be kind of hard to "mess up" an app like that. So I have no idea why it won't stay connected. Maybe take it into an AT&T store, show them, and ask for a new one? IDK if that'd work or not...

Do you have juicedefender? Cus it will disconnect it when u lock ur device

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
My screen died last night. The phone works as I can hear all the sounds and my bottom buttons still light up, etc but I have a black screen.

I called a local repair shop and they stated it wasn’t worth repairing and that they’d be guessing what parts need replacement. Based on the symptoms above is this true? Can anyone tell me if they know what part I would need to buy to try the repair myself? Is it worth trying to fix myself?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
There are two parts, the screen itself and the digitizer. The digitizer is the actual glass you touch, if that's not cracked, then you are good with that. The screen is the actual lcd under the glass.

Both can be found on ebay for 20-50 bucks, and there are tutorials here and on youtube to show you how to take it apart and fix it. FYI, there are two types of lcd's, one with a small ribbon and one with a wider one. The only way to know if to take your phone apart so you order the right one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdc177:
Seems like I can get both parts from Amazon Prime for less than $50 total which makes this worth a try. Can you suggest a good tool kit for this project?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
Not worth repairing? I'ts cheap as hell to repair your issue.

**LINK**

You can also buy the replacement parts from that website as well. However, you might browse ebay first to see if you can get the parts for cheaper.

Edit: If the guys at the repair shop can't have any kind of educated idea as to what would be the problem with your screen going out then i would suggest not letting them anywhere near any of your computers either.

1. If screen turns on when the phone initially starts and then stops working when Android attempts to load then you've obviously got a software issue.

2. If screen doesn't work at all during the phone's initial startup process then you've obviously got a hardware problem.

3. A quick Google search shows the parts involved in replacing a screen and countless videos on how to do it. Takes only a few minutes to get a complete understanding of how it's done (It's not all that dissimilar from replacing a laptop screen). And it probably take 30-45 minutes, taking it slow since it would be a new process for the tech, to actually do the replacement.

4. Any semi-decent tech should be able to diagnose your problem within 5 minutes of looking at the phone and then have your phone back to you an hour and a half after receiving the parts.

[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
I've tried to replace the BlurCamera.apk with the one from the Atrix thread, and have also tried to replace the keyboard functionality by replacing the LatinIME.apk file, as posted keyboard replacement from RAZR thread, and neither of these have been working.

I have tried all sorts of ways of getting the files onto the phone, such as, downloaded the files through the XDA app, using ADB and copy to a holding area, and using USB mode. The files transfer sucessfully. When I move the files to the /system/app folder, I then set the proper permissions ( 644 ) and also set the owner to 0 and group to 0 (root/root). Supposedly after a reboot of the device the new APKs should be loaded, but I'm not seeing them loaded.

Is there global some setting I am overlooking? Maybe something to do with signing? Please help, thanks! Currently I have "unknown sources" turned on under application settings, and have "Usb debugging" turned on as well.

Thanks in advance!

atrix camera is working, see the thread, I posted working combo of .apk + .odex there.

As to other files, it AFAIK depends...if these files are from deodexed ROMs, then it probably will not work...also, it seems XT860 really is different from Verizon model, so plenty of things is not working...

so i see there are two options you gave i have hboot 1.50 do i HAVE to use the htc website or can i use the other?

thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Yes, there is only one option available for hboot 1.5. hboot 1.5 and software update 2.08 patched previously used exploits by the alphrevx/unrevoked team which produced revolutionary.

i don't think they're looking to invest time/labor into developing new exploits to bypass the protection on the device when the manufacturer has released a fairly decent unlock method. unfortunately, it takes quite a bit of work and knowledge to bypass the bootloader locking mechanisms on these devices.

yea. the only thing to keep in mind is that the htc unlock method unlocks write access to all partitions, as other android devices, except the kernel (boot partition).

there are only two modes of operation where htc unlocks the boot/kernel partition. normal android mode and fastboot mode.

in order to flash a kernel, my application Flash Image GUI, works very well from normal android mode. it will load both the kernel and the wifi drivers preventing wifi error issues many users run into.

I also have a few guides at the bottom of my OP for Flash Image GUI specifically for hboot 1.5 users.

in order to flash a kernel using fastboot, the proper way/correct command is: fastboot boot c:\recovery.img . this will load the custom recovery in a special temporary fastboot mode where it has write access to the kernel.

there are lots of guides avaiable on step by step approaches to using this method.

normal recovery mode does not have write access to the kernel. this confuses many people new to the device.

hope that helps! good luck!
