No problems with wifi, 3g, 4g or gps. Running Clean GB.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i've had problems with wifi not connecting until i toggle it. also wifi and 3g show up at the same time... dont' know what that's about
[Epic 4G General] signal34:
I've had the WiFi + 3G at the same time too. I'm running xBTx's mostly stock ROM with nubernel-2.6.35_v.0.0.1 kernel.
[Epic 4G General] bohiti:
I've had all these problems.. stock ei22, but rooted. Updated from a pristine ec05 using cwm.

Wifi signal strength is less than other devices.. when I'm a few rooms away from my AP, sometimes I don't get any data transferred when my ipad works just fine

Sometimes I drop the connection to the AP and have to toggle wifi.

Sometimes I have both 3g and wifi icons.

Sometimes 3g doesn't turn on after leaving a wifi network.
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
I do get considerably less wifi range but I fixed that by installing connectify on my laptop and all is well
[Epic 4G General] wtogami:
Fixed Wifi Cycling

I just now upgraded to Samurai 1.0.3 kernel and the wifi failing 2-3 times a minute has stopped. I was unable to find a changelog in the Samurai thread, so I don't know if they intentionally fixed wifi. I suspect it wasn't Samurai 1.0.2 kernel's fault at all, but rather a side-effect of upgrading from EC05. Does kernel install via CWM rebuild the initramfs image during install-time like regular Linux distributions, or is it made static by the kernel developer?

I do notice that the reported signal strength in both the wifi signal bars in the notification area and Signal Strength dBm as reported by Wifi Radar are weaker than in EC05. I haven't tested to determine if this is an actual regression or only a difference in reporting.
[Epic 4G General] Speedin07si:
My wifi is now going at full bars like it did before i upgraded to ACS ICS V4. Honestly it's been weird.... First my 4G didnt work now it works like a charm everytime. Wifi wasn't as strong now I'm back to full strength.... It's like the phone had to re-learn everything....

WIFI Problems on EI22

I am also having problems with WIFI on EI22 roms - it doesn't matter which rom I am using - it also happend with the original stock version of EI22 when it first came out.

I can be connected - no problem - then suddenly it disconnects for no reason - I get a network connection error and it suddently turns back on.

At firs this was a sporadic issue - now it seems to be happening all the time. Just when I think it has stopped - it will start again. it is driving me crazy -

I would love to hear any fixes I can try????:confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garfnodie:
I recently put a new ROM on my OG Samsung Galaxy Tab (Sprint SPH-P100) that happened to have a really cool sound that plays whenever you plug in the charger. I wanted to put the sound on my N1 running CM7 nightly, so I pulled the file (Charger_Connection.ogg) from the /system/media/audio/ui folder and put it on my N1 in the exact same folder, but the sound does not play whenever I plug my N1 into the charger. Is there something I can do, maybe in Terminal Emulator or whatever to make it play the sound?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You need to modify the system for that, I believe. AFAIK, this sound isn't a part of standard Android, it's a part of TouchWiz framework.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifalldownalot:
wondering if there were any alternate galleries for our phones. i really don't like our stock gallery. i used to think it was decent before our gb update.

i downloaded justpictures and quickpic from the market. didn't like justpictures. quickpic was okay... didn't entirely like the interface.

also wondering if we could install a gallery from another phone? i like my friend's gallery on his lg g2x. i was thinking i could find an apk from a gallery that i like and try to install it on my phone.

oh. and wondering if this MIUI gallery apk would work.

thoughts? concerns? complaints?

thanks in advance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omni_angel7:
I use quickpic. The MIUI does work. Not sure what you're expecting, but quickpic is awesome IMO.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bamastang:

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccrows:

just wondering, i c there is tons of stuff on this but can someone tell me y i would want to root? besides the tether hack not to sure if there is any gain?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BillyBob3:
Think of root as administrator level access. Just as on your computer, some things cannot be done without this granted. Backup at an application level is another example.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slightly.stoopid:
Or the more you wanna get into it, you can intall custom roms which are tweaked and made up to perform faster. Also can install kernel and overclock your phone. A lot of stuff you can do with your phone rooted. You should head to the developers forum on xda for the Epic and read some of that stuff
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
You can freeze services and or apps that you want to keep but don't want auto starting on their own (using your battery and memory). You can wipe deeper caches when having other problems, and you can force the phone to roam when you want it to. You can also remove bloatware apps that you normally can't remove without root access. When you find an app you want to use that says "requires root access" you must root to use the app.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazinazn:
A big thing for me is to remove all the sprint bloatware. This keeps the processes from running completely and in theory, saves battery life.

From there, you can do full backups and what not.
[General Questions and Answers] IIxShockwavexII:
So, I have very little coding experience, and have quite obviously never ported Android to my phone, but with that said, I have an idea that maybe could work with a little of luck.

We all know that the Motorola Xoom, which is nearly identical to the Atrix - as far as specifications go - is going to officially receive Android 4.0. What we do not know is whether or not the Atrix will be receiving it. There's no doubt that it is capable of running 4.0, but we know how companies and their oh-so-fast updates are. There has been no official statement to my knowledge that the Atrix will be receiving Android 4.0, meaning that the proprietary blobs required to make the 3.0 kernel would not be released.

My maybe possible solution to this would be to use the Motorola Xoom's proprietary blobs when they are released. Is this ridiculous? Possible? Attempted before? Just wondering, as it may be a solution to Android 4.0 for the Atrix.

//Please do not tear me a new one if this is absurd.

Id like to play Fruit Ninja on my CM7 on KF(rooted).

Im pretty new in this community and would like to ask how to get such apps running.

Its hanging and lagging around whole time. I was been able to read out some information about apps which can fix this.

Have you any advice for me ?

Thanks

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] asainz320:
On my new Galaxy S 2 the soft keys are not turning off completly, they are staying on, even when the phone is sleeping the keys are dim. What can this be?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] asainz320:
So apparently no one else has this problem or a solution for it. Am i out of luck?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TJBunch1228:
When you go into the touch key light duration setting in the display settings, what does it say? If it's at like 6 seconds but still stays on forever then something is wrong. Try a factory reset. Failing that, warranty exchange fo sho.

Related side note - when I use Netflix, my soft keys stay lit up the whole time. There is no words that can illustrate the frustration and annoyance at this little "feature". It's bright as **** in a dark room trying to watch a show.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] asainz320:
But what's happening is that when the screen is on the touch keys work as they should, but when the screen turns off the touch keys remain turned on in like a dim state. Very wired!
[Droid X General] AngelsPunishment:
Okay I followed these instructions

http://www.talkandroid.com/55906-on...d-3-droid-x2-cliq-and-cliq-2-from-the-forums/

I had it rooted, I used the droid x bootstrap to install the recovery and then used it to go into recovery. I made a backup, but I forgot to wipe before I installed a new rom (newest MIUI). I tried using the bootstrap to install the recovery again and go into it, but when I try to go into the recovery it just reboots the phone basically. It stays on the Motorola logo for a long time but eventually boots. I tried the Droid 2 bootstrap now and still the same results. The wifi on it is broken and the data does not work. Every time the phone reboots, its completely starting from scratch. I have to resign in with gmail and everything, and the bootstrap is no longer installed.

I tried using the recovery by holding the home button while powering it on, but wiping data and cache does nothing, and it errors out when I try to install the rom from the install from update option.

I'm stumped. How can I get back into the recovery so I can wipe+install the rom again?
[Droid X General] AngelsPunishment:
I fixed it. Please delete the thread. Not sure why we don't have the ability to do so if it's our own thread.

[Nexus S General] dinuweera:
This kernal will make the nexus s charge to 100% with the screen off, thanks to peter alfonso, I have tried it and it works great with good battery life.

[Nexus S General] JakeOcn:
It's not a fix, number is just cosmetic your nexus will still charge to 96%... It's just a tweak
[Nexus S General] Pratez:
If I'm not mistaken, the "charge to something about 96%" is a safety measure to increase the lifetime of the battery? Why would one want to push those last few % and lower the lifetime?
[Nexus S General] simms22:
most the other kernels include it now also. and it is just a cosmetic fix.
[Nexus S General] xsteven77x:
I just don't understand if it's such a safety features why does NO other phone do it?
[Nexus S General] lilgrass71:
Other phones should do it... Just like why you shouldn't keep your laptop constantly plugged in... It'll kill your battery a lot faster
[Nexus S General] g.lamprou:
Battery works great but first error is NFC not working ...
[Nexus S General] mattallica76:
All Android phones have this "charging safety feature".

Unless you plan on using the same battery and phone for the next ten years, you are highly unlikely to notice any degradation in the battery health. I have been using one of my OEM Samsung Nexus batteries for 2 years now (it is the same battery that came with my Samsung Moment and used on an Instinct HD as well). This particular battery has been topped off on all three phones and external chargers probably 100's of times. It still charges to a full 4.19v and stays full even sitting on my nightstand for a week or two.

The "Safety mechanism" in the charging code that has been brought up over and over again is included in all Android phones. It is nothing new. The problem is that in other devices, the battery meter reads 100% when it reaches the safe full level at the batteries temperature (usually between 4.188 and 4.190). The Nexus S has an error in the driver code that causes the meter to read inaccurately(95-98%) even when the voltage reaches 4.19. I don't believe Google did this intentionally, as it would cause many misinformed people to constantly bump charge their batteries in hopes of reaching 100%. It would have made more sense to have the meter read 100% at the safe full level.

In any event, the fix for the issue is here, and already being applied to some Nexus S kernels, including the one in the OP. It's not just "cosmetic".

[Nexus S General] leerobson99:
Bought my nexus s day one and it charges to 93%. I've noticed turning wifi on after plugging it in to charge does boost it to 98. But I always leave wifi off overnight. Don't want pesky google plus emails waking me up lol.

Overall, after nearly a year of use I'm happy with the battery life of my phone. You get used to how far you can push the phone in daily use and which settings to use.

So I cracked my screen today for my EVO 4G... I'm very sad as it was the first Android phone I ever had, and the first one I ever rooted/flashed roms on...

Well I went to the replacement site for Sprint, set it up, and they are sending me the EVO 3D... So I will be wishing you all the best and hopefully my new 3D will be a new adventure for me.

[Off-topic] investmenttechnology:
I had a look at their website, you guys are right. It is much easier to browse through the website, however one thing I find strange, how come on their website they don't separate ringtone from notification sound?
[Off-topic] Gadgetz:
Exactly! In the time it takes to view 1 page of wallpapers on the app you can view 4 on the website.

I'd imagine because on most phones it doesnt matter. I remember back when I had my Moto E816 I could only use certain file types for a ringtone/notification/alarm/etc., now you can use pretty much whatever you want.
[Off-topic] Archer:
They should add a remote install feature to the website, obviously requiring you to have the Zedge app installed on your phone. That would make it really worthwhile using the site over the app.

I do agree that the site is better for browsing, but the app sets things for you. We want the best of both worlds.
[Off-topic] Gadgetz:
You mean something like the Market where you pick something you want to d/l and instead of downloading on your pc it automatically d/l's to your phone? That would be sweet!
[Off-topic] Archer:
Yes mate - exactly that and yes, it would be awesome. Google would be doing a great thing if they included something like authenticated remote installation in the Android framework. That would get used so much!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exel:
You have to root your phone, and install a custom recovery.

If you already have that, just follow the instructions in the post:

For all users:

-Download Malice.zip and place on your sdcard.

-Boot into Clockwork Recovery and Wipe Data/Factory Reset Before You Move On.

-Flash Malice.zip.-While still in recovery: Wipe Cache Partition, and inside the advanced menu: Wipe Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions

-Just These Three Steps, Do Not Factory Reset Again.

-Reboot Your Phone AND LET IT SIT. (I know you're excited, but its for the best.)

-After about 10 minutes, you should reboot again to clean things up and wipe out any bugs.

-Enjoy!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Do you have Clockwork installed form the Market? If so, you may have to Reinstall Packages twice in the 4 option recovery menu. That shoudl get you into CWR after the second one.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkim02:
Make sure you have downloaded ROM manager from the market and have installed clockwork recovery from there first. Then if you are in the stock recovery, chooses reinstall packages.... You might have to do this twice I below to get into clockwork.... It's been a while since I've been on stock but that should get you in.

[Off-topic] jamRwoo:
The way the law is written does allow for scenarios like the one you propose. The retort of the politicians is, "We won't ever (ab)use this power for doing stuff like that, never ever." I don't know about you, but that's not too reassuring for me. If it's not abused now by these politicians, it'll be abused later by future politicians. Not to mention the precedent it sets...Once you give the government a little bit of control, it becomes very easy for them to get a lot of control.

Even if this were solely an interpretation of the law issue I'd still be against it, because Congress shouldn't be writing laws that can be so easily misinterpreted.
