[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kar1oko:
Hello everybody,

I'm experiencing a strange issue with the new bluetooth handsfree system of my car. It's a Viseeo MB-3 that is very popular in Mercedes cars. It has Parrot CK5050+ chipset, so it is pretty standard.

I tried with my other phone, a HTC Desire and works perfectly, the same with an iPhone from a friend, but my Samsung Galaxy refuses to connect.

In this system is the handsfree set which stays visible and you have to connect from the phone. When I try to connect I get a message saying that there was an error when trying to connect to the MB-3.

I was with a custom CM rom (Insanity), so I wiped everything and went to stock 2.3.5 (JVT) but I got same error.

I went to Froyo 2.2.1 (JPY) and it worked perfectly.

Went back to GB 2.3.5 and the error came back.

I tried to put JPY radio over 2.3.5 but it didn't solve the problem.

So, it seems there is some change at certain point with Galaxy GB bluetooth that makes impossible to connect to the handsfree set (I haven't investigated all versions to check in which one the problem started).

The Viseeo MB-3 is totally updated with last FW version.

Any ideas?

hey all i am planning to buy a new android phone, and my history is a wildfire(cm7.1) which i sold, and i am currently owning an htc hd7( with xboxmod rom). and i am not that much happy with windows 7 phone( and cant find any android rom for it).

so.......

well i am planning to sell hd7 and buy an android phone.

i am confused with a lot of android phones around, so i decided to ask you people.

my specifations are..

1) hdpi screen 800*480

2) 1 or 1.2 ghz chipset( qualacom or tegra??) with a min 512 mb ram

3)good gpu,( i dont play that much, but like to make apps and graphics faster)

4) blue tooth 2 or 2.1 with a2dp.

5)some internal memory( 512mb - 2gb range) and mor than 8gb external micro sd support.

6) wifi b/g/(if i can get then n too)

7) good hsdpa speed( i mean 3g)

8)and all sensors needed for android device( we can omit gyro)

9) 5mp cam with 720p video rec( i have sonyericsson c905 for photo, lol 8mp cybershot phone).

10) a good battery life( like 4-5 hours calling/browsing in 2g or 3g, 5-8 hrs video/audio playback, and i really care about audio quality through headphones, it needs to be good)

these are my hardware spec, now my software spec are..

1) i should be able to load honeycomb( if a rom is available for the device), and may be upto icecream sandwich( little overkill??)

2) easily bootloader unlockable and rootable( i dont want to pay for it)

3) i need the best roms to be loaded into it( like cm, miui, etc and i never care for stock roms, as we can flash anything to it.)

4) multi bootable( if i get some thing like hd2 or so??, ) well its not a need, but if i can have it, then i am ok.

i like to have a htc( top priority), sonyericsson, or samsung device. well probably a phone with top spec in a middle class budget ( some thing that cost like htc desire S.). nop i am not going after latest workstations with tegra 2 cpu 1.2 or 1.4 ghz. which costs a lot money

what are your options?? does it worth to by the "old legend" HTC HD2? or you have better options?

[General Questions and Answers] showlyshah:
all about s2.. but dudes i am personaly an htc fan, though i also accept sonyericsson. but not thatmuch used with samsung.. coz, in the hardware respect, i have seen that htc have much more classy finish and are quite problem free.. also samsung is a newer in android / smartphone market, where as htc has proven their lagency in smatphone market. so pls pick an htc device. what about dezire hd?
[General Questions and Answers] ExMM:
I would suggest the HTC EVO 3D or the HTC sensation XL all the way....

If you want to save some money, then I would go for the Desire S.
[General Questions and Answers] Killer-B:
Oh! Ok, I also I like the HTC's android devices. The latest and fastest HTC are.

1. HTC Rezound (Verizon)

2. HTC Vivid (AT&T)

3. HTC Amaze (T-mobile)

4. HTC Evo Design (Sprint)

These are the latest and fastest with alot of memory HTC phones.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PsychoticThoughts:
Looking to put my wifes Inc 2 back to stock. We just got the phone from verizon via replacement for bricking hers during the new software update. As soon as I got it I had it rooted. Now, the camera will not work at all. So before I go back to Verizon I really need to get it back to stock. So I checked the Inc 2 Dev forum and didnt see anything but the ChinaCom update. I need the VZW WWE stock 2.3.4 So if anyone could point in the right direction, thatd be fantastic. Ive also tried flashing 4 separate ROMs and 3rd party camera apps, it just FC's. So Im going to take it back AGAIN and see what theyll do for me.

Thanks!

There really should be more of an ability to reset to factory, literally.

It's nice being able to wipe all user data and stuff but the custom rom still remains.

Sometimes people need to return a phone or need to go back to stock to install an OTA update ya know!

But custom roms are generally superior so whatever.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] LiquidSmokeX64:
I Agree with this. There's been plenty of times where I have needed to sell or bring the phone back to the store, but without it being TRULY stock, they wont do anything. Plus alot of folks don't want to buy a rooted or S-Off phone becaues it voids the warranty.

There needs to be a way to completely revert to stock. Like it was out of the box. As easily as possible.
[LG Optimus 2x] C0D3N1N3R:
Hello,

I installed Rom manager and flashed CWM 5.0.2.0 (I guess) from it. When I choose backup option from the app it does the backup but I really don't think saves it anywhere so I tried doing it manually by going into recovery manually. When I did this the LG logo appeared and then nothing happened just a black screen with the leds on.

Plz guide me as to what I should do now.

P.S. - I have a nandroid backup but it is a bit old. Its from the old CWM I installed manually.

Thanks

Is there 3 or 2 colours disponibles ? white,black and blue.

Or is black and blue which is much cheaper are the same model?

Which colour is handtec or other saler when they don't mentionned anything on colour like below?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DMax99:
There are only two colours for the Note....Blue or White.

The Blue is basically Black....I think they called it Blue is because the back cover is a very dark blue colour which is almost black.

I'm not sure if handtec has the white ones yet. I got my black one from handtec about a week ago, very good seller
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] obakesan:
Was reading about the note on an asian blog and black might be released as a colour for the chinese market.

This is proper black and not under current dark colour model.

Yes, this would be a useful app, I think.

What is really needed, though, is basically an html5 wysiwyg app. Audio, video, text, handwriting, drawings, all entered into a journal-database. The html5 document format could be read on almost any device -- and even edited in some portions on most devices.

Has anyone noticed that the bluetooth module (Broadcom BCM4330) in the Gnote is capable of Bt 4.0 + HS? So why is Samsung advertising only Bt 3.0+HS?

Details of hardware inside the Gnote came be found here: engadget (dot) com/2011/10/28/behind-the-glass-a-detailed-tour-inside-the-samsung-galaxy-note

Here's Broadcom's official page about the Bt module: broadcom (dot) com/products/Wireless-LAN/802.11-Wireless-LAN-Solutions/BCM4330

On a side note, Galaxy S II and Galaxy Nexus carries the same Bt module as well. Again, Samsung is advertising bt 3.0 for these devices. The Iphone 4S too carries the same Bt module. Apple however is advertising Bt 4.0

What are your thoughts on this one?
[General Questions and Answers] investmenttechnology:
I was reading this article about Google Music on CNN, the writer mentioned that Android is a mess, a mess that has captured half the market. So why does this writer still consider Android a mess? Is it because the way Android system is distributed or the amount of fragmentation in the Android ecosystem?

[General Questions and Answers] xHausx:
HTC's Android phones are pretty good but the saying you get what you pay for is definitely true with android. Each carrier customizes it differently and some are a lot better keeping it updated than others.
[General Questions and Answers] kevinlux:
Android it's quite new, fragmentation is a well known problem on which BigG is working on... the fact the producers are customizing their product it's more an advantage for the market...

To sustain that Android it's a mess there should be some valid topics that the author should bring, too easy to say something without prove it.
[General Questions and Answers] brett_c:
Less a mess than it used to be

My first android, the Samsung Behold 2, was a complete mess. Immature OS, frequent FC, lack of manufacturer support for upgrades, etc. I didn't get 2 years out of that phone before I bought the HTC Sensation, which is much nicer.

I think the perceptions of Android will improve as the older pre-2.0 devices are retired to the dustbins. While I wish I had the ability to circumvent HTC and TMO for core Android OS software updates, it's just not a reality except for headsets that are sold a native/vanilla Android devices. With that said, I still prefer the innovation and variety available on the Android platform over the "one size fits all" iOS approach.

Speed Test Screen Shots Showing Differences

Ok, so photos/screen shots always provide a better line of proof and explanation. Because I tend to get much higher speeds than most, I wanted to show the difference in the speeds between Phone, USB Tether, and WiFi Tether when you MAX Speeds reach above 40Mbps.

PHOTO 1: This is a screen shot from my phone last night after downloading the screen shot app.

PHOTO 2: This is a screen shot this morning on my computer VIA USB Tether (USB 2.0 480Mbps Link)

PHOTO 3: This is a screen shot this morning on my computer VIA WiFi Tether (Using Garden Tether with 54Mbps Link)

All these speed test results are from the same server (Tacoma, WA) in order to provide the maximum accuracy of changes.

[LG Revolution] borborpa:
Wow I wish I was getting 40+ over LTE!! Mid-20's is the best I get!
[LG Revolution] Cybie257:
These are crazy speeds. In fact, that's why I have no issue paying the extra $30 for the HotSpot service. $30+$30 = $60 for 40+Mbps Speeds, and the uploads speeds are crazy ridiculous also. Comcast at 20-22Mbps Down and about 3-5Mbps Up runs about $65/month. So, basically, I'm getting double the speeds for same price (actually for $30 since I already have to pay for the Data Service on my phone), plus it's available wherever I go. Of course, most areas are still 3g, but I'm happy with 2+Mbps down on the road if I ever need it, On-Demand and Verizon expects to have all 3g areas upgraded to 4g by mid to end of 2013, which isn't very far away. :)

[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
hehe...This is the pinnacle of polite snarkiness; especially commendable considering you were tired. :D

Seriously though, great post; I've emailed this to several people who needed this explanation.

On a related (though tangential) note, what do you guys think about creating a "map" of 4G speeds/availability by zip code/city? We could use Latitude or some other tool to create an actual graphical depiction as well. We'd start off small within the Revo boards and if it catches on, branch out to the rest of xda to get more data.

Is this something that would be at all useful, or--if nothing else--at least cool information to have/look at? Or is this my nerdy love of analyzing/comparing statistical data causing me to come up with nonsensical, useless ideas? :cool:

Thoughts?
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
I like the idea, I travel some and its nice to know what to expect as far as network speeds. I'll participate.
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
I don't suppose you know of a website that would accomodate what we're trying to do?
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
Off the top of my head, No. But I'll start at speedtest.net, and maybe DSLReports. See what we can find from there?
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
I meant as far as a means of allowing public contribution, geotagging the data, and displaying it on a map. I've spent the last 30 minutes looking and I can't find ****.
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
Ahhh, now I'm stepping in what you're dropping. LOL. No I haven't the foggiest idea. I'm sure there is something out there. I'm looking as well. Probably something Google related I'm sure.
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
That's what I thought, but as far as I can tell, Latitude doesn't support the kind of public contribution and data/location storage we're looking for. Basically we need geocaching, but without the stupid treasure hunting part.
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
Although maybe finding decent consistent 4G is the treasure? "Stand on X to get insane Speeds " :)
[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
You have any luck?

If you're interested, I'll be on IRC most of the day...You should jump on so we can discuss this potential project. :cool:

[LG Revolution] nagymancs:
N tether?

Hiya

speaking about speeds. If I know that both my phone and my laptop is N capable, is there any way to create an N wifi link between them?

I'm not much interested about the external 3g net coverages or speeds but to pump up the lan transfer speed between my phones internal memory and my pc.

there's a nice app for example called Wifi File Explorer. Usually I get between 993-1100 KB/sec upload speed to the internal directories.

I hit roughly the same boundaries if I try to stream some videos via the web interface of the VLC media player targeting my tablet

Reading through your post these seem to be quite normal speeds for 54mbps if I understand it right, but can anything be done to improve this still?
[LG Revolution] Cybie257:
Yes. During the posting of this thread, I didn't know about the WiFi Tether Beta project found at this link:

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

Not only can you get an "N" connection (Though actual speed is dependent on certain factors, but you can also get Infrastructure (Non Ad Hoc) mode to work with it, depending on your phone model. If you have an LG Revolution, use the Optimus S phone in the selection menu and you can get your phone to be a standard Access Point.

Note, though, that it is a known issue among phones, which research I just completed a bit ago, the that app can cause your phone to randomly reboot, but usually you can get a solid 20-30 minutes out of it before that happens. If nothing else, use it for 15 mins, shut it down, restart it, and go.

Other than that particular app, I've yet to come across one that goes above G speeds of 54Mbps.

At least for the market apps. If you have Verizon phone with the 4gHotSpot app, non-rooted phone, and pay for the HotSpot plan, that will also do N speeds via Wifi Tethering.

-Cybie
[LG Revolution] nagymancs:
well, thank you for your reply, I'll do my homework on the beta thingie then. Every once a while I did some research about the subject, but always came out empty handed. Hope it works; Thumbs up:)

*** unfortunately testing will be postponed for a while as I just realised that though both receiving devices are Ns and rooted but the hosting device is an S-ON Htc chacha, and though I read about the firmware downgrade root possibility half of the screen is black because of a fall..

And in the upcoming weeks its just not an option for me to have it be taken to a repair..

But when it happens, I'd happily post my findings about it!:)
[LG Revolution] y2d2:
Don't know how accurate the SpeedTest.net app is, and how much buffering has to do with it.

How do real-world results compare?

Haven't tested with my new GingerVolt install where SpeedTest.net is saying mid-20's to mid-30's Mbit/s, but with a de-crapified Froyo setup where SpeedTest.net was getting somewhere in the 16-18Mbit/s reading, I was maxing out at about 1.7-1.8MByte/s.
[LG Revolution] y2d2:
The new settings that resulted in nearly 2x speedtest.net readout don't seem to affect realworld performance, only benchmarks... same 1.7-1.9MByte/s peak torrent downloads using wifi tether.
[LG Revolution] Cybie257:
1.7-1.9 MegaBytes per second is about right. My original post explained that. If you want higher speeds, then you need to use USB Tether. a 54Mbps WiFi Tether connection will result in exactly the speeds you are getting.

Plus, realize that with Torrents, there is a lot of overhead that isn't calculated/shown.

When you run Speed Test, are you running it via your computer through WiFi? Or are you using the App on your phone?

-Cybie
[LG Revolution] y2d2:
I'm suddenly starting to feel like a retard right now. Will get back to you on the answers soon.
[LG Revolution] nichbchen:
Thanks for the explanation. It's very helpful. My question is why there is a 40% capacity for the fist calculation. what's that for?
[LG Revolution] reza.khan74:
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge on this Cybie257. I have been trawling the net to find the answer to why I'm only getting ~260Mbps download speed on my 1Gbps USB C OTG ethernet adapter attached to my Samsung Galxy S22. I guess the calculation you shared still applies today - a decade later😁

- 1000Mbps at 40% capacity is around 400Mbps

- 400Mbps is approximately 50 MB (MegaBytes) per second

- 400Mbps is also the MAX throughput you should expect

- With overhead and other factors, generally you will get approx 65-70% of that throughput that is usable data (OSI Model Overhead)

- 65% of 400Mbps = 32.5 MB/Sec Actual Speed Downloading a File, or 260Mbps
