Hello mates.

Someone on my building is hogging the entire web with endless download of torrents.

I banned him plenty times, but it appears that he´s using some program to protect himself.

I noticed that when I ban him, a "DNS ERROR" occurs. Can someone here help me, please? What´s going on?

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
If you are going to flash another rom don't even bother rooting, there is no need.

It looks like the file system isn't writeable, usually running "adb remount" first will make the file system writeable.

Are you trying to use ROM MANAGER by chance?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zacisblack:
To be honest, it might be easier flashing a custom ROM via odin that's already rooted. Or you can flash CM7. Should take about 10-20 minutes once you have everything you need downloaded.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
You need to flash CWM recovery fixed for CM7 using Odin. Then you need to 3-finger into recovery. If the phone boots you'll have to reflash recovery again. The stock kernel reflashes recovery every boot. Once in recovery you can flash Miui.

Miui is what I run, I would recommend you use 916 with JTs 1016 kernel. Or 1028.1 with It's included kernel, or his 115 kernel. 916 Miui is consider the most stable version. I've found 1028.1 to be extremely stable as well. 11-11 wasn't as stable for me so I went back to 1028.1
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
As icemanwbs said, look up my guide in the general section. just replace cm7 file with miui...seriously it works and is easy to follow. refer to section 3

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lchiu7:
I bought the N1 on the day it came out and it's still going fine. Well I must provide soem caveats here so say it's not the original unit. I have gone through 2 RMA's with HTC and 2 paid for repairs for the power button. The last time the power button failed, the repair only lasted abouit 6 weeks and when I complained they sent me a refurb rather than fix it.

For me the only issues for the N1 are

- flaky touch sometimes (go to suspend and back usually fixes it)

- constantly running out of system memory and all apps I can move are moved to the SD card.

So it's either get a new phone or root the N1. Given that the phone works for what I want rooting and a new firmware might be the answer.

So given that I have never rooted a phone or installed new firmware, can people suggest the most appropriate firmware I should be looking at and the easiest way to get there. The phone is currently on 2.3.6 (OTA).

There is so much conflicting information out there it's hard to know what the best route is.

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Txtraveler:
I have a rooted N1 that I bought in February of 2010, a month after they became available. It was rooted when I bought it on eBay and running one of the CM ROMs. I don't know how to root a phone, sorry.

I DO know how to load ROMs and have variously updated and modded the phone myself. I have been fortunate in that my power button has never failed, but while I was running a series of OTA ROMs (ROMs based on the pure Android released from Google) I noticed that the latest ones disabled the trackball wake feature, meaning that the power button was the only way to wake the phone. I had gotten used to trackball wake with the first CyanogenMod ROM, and so once I learned that the power button was a weak spot, I decided that a CM ROM or a modded AOSP ROM was the only option.

As there were some issues with CM ROMs that took months to work out (see WONK), I went with an AOSP ROM that I found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1121595 . It's now a dead thread, but the links to the 3.1 version of the ROM is still there. I use the apps2SD version of the 3.1 ROM.

There are several more ROMs that are more recent, but this one is the best one I have ever found. You will need to root your phone and install a custom recovery (like AmonRA or ClockworkMod) to use it, but I have found that everything works well and it is extremely stable. I have over 70 apps on my phone with over 80MB of internal memory still available.

The only problem I have ever had is an intermittent battery drain, which I was able to fix by wiping the cache files (Dalvik and regular caches). The custom recoveries have the ability to do this. Apparently any corruption of the cache files causes excessive battery drain, but wiping them (which causes the phone to rebuild them on the next boot - a 4 minute process!) gives you fresh cache files and fixes the problem.

If you are willing to learn how to root your phone and install a custom recovery, I can recommend that ROM. Once the first part is done, loading a custom ROM is as easy as putting the zipped ROM file on your SD card, getting to the bootloader and telling it to install the zip.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addam360:
Well just so you know, rooting or installing any ROM will never stop the touch input problems. Its my main dislike about the N1. Apps2SD would solve your storage issues though and all the extra little perks of rooting just sweeten the deal.

Replacing a phone is expensive and just not necessary for the N1 yet. May as well root in my opinion. CM7.1 is now perfectly stable, include trackball wake, can support A2SD as far as I know and has some nice extras too.

As well as that it shouldn't be TOO much longer until we get a decent ICS ROM.

Hope that helps you.:D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lchiu7:
Thanks. I never expected the new ROM to fix the touch input problems. That is a fundamental hardware issue.

I was thinking along the same lines regarding ICS. It's gone AOS now and I now see somebody has built a port for the N1 already. So if I wait a bit if I choose to install some custom firmware, if the reports suggest ICS runs fine on the N1 (to confirm that Google didn't release it because there was a performance issue with the N1 and ICS) then that's the route I will take. In for a penny, in for a pound I guess!

Guys, anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sixfearstheseven:
I'm looking for a widget that shows either recent missed calls or unread text messages (or both) for use on Widgetlocker. I already tried MissedIt!, SMS Unread Count, Last Call Widget, and ADW Notifier, but they don't provide the functionality I am looking for.

I can't post pictures yet, so I'll try to describe the widget I am looking at. It's either 4x1 or 3x1, and on the left 2 columns it shows the name of the person who called and their phone number. Between the second and third column is a straight vertical line/divider, like one of these... | ... and on the right side of the divider is a green phone icon. I like that it shows the name/number of the missed call - not just the number of missed calls - and appears to have a button for returning the call from the widget.

What would be even better is widget just like MissedIt!, but with small phone, SMS, and email icons to the left of the numbers of missed items, and more details like name of missed caller, preview of SMS, etc.

Anyone have any idea what widget this is, or know of a widget with similar features? A widget that also counts and previews recent SMS would be even better.

Thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garyd9:
I was having an issue with my SR battery draining about 25% every hour, the battery getting very warm, etc. I seem to have found the issue...

One thing I noticed with the problem was that "email" was eating nearly as much battery as the display.. Then I remembered an old issue I had with an iphone using exchange activesync. In that case, if the iPhone was connected to an AP on the same internal LAN as an Exchange server, and activesync was configured on that phone while in that state, the phone would have email issues whenever you were no longer connected to that AP...

The reason is/was that the exchange server has a different (private) IP number for internal LAN users as opposed to external LAN users. So, for example, when you are on your internal LAN, the exchange server might be addressed as "192.168.1.1", but as soon as you lose your wifi signal and switch to the carrier data, that IP number is meaningless... instead, the exchange server must be addressed with a public facing IP number (which will NEVER begin with 192.168.) In the meantime, activesync is trying DESPERATELY to sync with that internal IP address even though its completely invalid. All those retries take CPU power, which will drain your battery VERY quickly.

To test if this is the case for you, first delete the exchange activesync account from your phone. Then turn off wifi, and finally reboot (completely turn off and turn back on) your mobile phone. When it comes back up, make sure that wifi is still disabled.

Now reconfigure your exchange server activesync account. This time, the phone will get the EXTERNAL public facing IP address for the exchange server, and not the internal (private) one. After your contacts, email and whatever else has sync'd, you can turn wifi back on. (or leave it off - it shouldn't matter.) See if this helps... for me, it made a HUGE difference.

If this helps, please understand its not a perm solution. When you are back on your internal wifi, eventually your phone is going to get that internal IP address back in its cache and it'll get messed up again. The only solution to this would be to talk to your system administrator and arrange things so that your DHCP assignment gives you an external DNS server all the time, or never gives an internal address for the exchange server, etc. (There are a couple ways to deal with this, but they are beyond the scope of this message.)

I admin my own windows server (domain, exchange, etc) so I'm able to control how DHCP assigns DNS server addresses. Most people don't have that much control...

Occasionally after installing something from Kitchen Pro or fixing permissions and when the phone reboots my apps just dissapear,the screens on my phone are just blank and when i click on applications there are no apps there, i left the phone a few minutes to see if anything would happen but nothing so rebooted again and the apps/widgets,etc all show again, this has happened several times and each time i need to reboot a second time in order for the apps,etc to show, it appears to happen most when installing something or fixing permissions, has anyone else experienced this problem and what could be the cause (and is there a fix for it)

Hi,

yesterday while listening to podcasts, my Desire S with MIUI 11.11 completely froze.

It would not switch off so after a while I did a reset (Vol +/- + Power). The screen went black and the phone vibrated 7 times and did not start. Later I took out the battery for a couple of minutes and switched it on again. Same thing: Phone stays dark, it vibrates 7 times and nothing happens. It doesnt react to Vol - + Power to get into the bootloader and is not recognized by adb.

Not even the led comes on when I plug in the charger.

Anything else I can do besides shipping it back to htc?

In my case (HTC Desire SV), taking out the battery for about 5 minutes solved the issue. In your case though, there seems to be something else at hand... Did you fix it in the end (pleae share), or did you get a new phone?

Hi guys,

Im trying to help a friend, He has the Verizon Samsung Fascinate, the phone is rooted, has super user. I Dl'd and installed the Android wifi tether 2.07apk from the google dev site. started up the app. started tether without issue, looked on my Toshiba Thrive Tablet, found the android tether wifi, tried to connect and message pops up on my tablet stating something about adhoc is not supported.

I have a Droid Incredible running Nil's sense 3.5 rom and have the same android tether app, I can start up tethering, turn tethering on, connect and surf the web on my tablet, with no mention of the adhoc compatibility thing.

Im not up on Samsung devices, I have always had HTC phones. So im not sure if this a Samsung issue or what.

I compared his tether app settings to mine and both are the same.

EDIT. This post is an edition of the last post "Possible notification solution", which was a total failure. This post will begin in page number 6. I did this to not open a new thread, and to use last thread.

In the spanish forum, we are working hard to fix some basic bugs that still exist in our device. With the entrance of new kernel developers and with the help of all of us, we hope we will be able to fix those problems that exist since gb exists... This post is a request to all the xda-developers community involved (or not) in this device. With the work of the people who know about the subjet we will make this device a better android phone.

Some of the main bugs we found are basically two:

-Possibility of using videocall. In froyo, videocall used to work with the app Tango, but only in froyo, because the same app works, but with inverted image, with zoom and with a loud and strange noise, which makes the call impossible.

In addition, fring, oovoo, skype or gtalk offer a videocall that doesn't work, appearing a black screen. We could get a modified version of fring, which can help, because it solves the rotation screen problem. Skype has lots of mods in xda, and some of them worked, but finally used to fall down. What we want is someone to port a videocall mode to gtalk, or skype or something like this..

-Notification fix (totally failure until today for some users...)

Thank you very much for your attention and hope everybody helps...
