Well, I have 4 out of 5 bars... Signal looks strong enough to me.

If I use the same SIM card in a HTC MyTouch 4G slide => Works great, no data connection drops at all !

Looks like it depends on what programs are running and using the data connection:

- email push - connection last long enough.

- when I'm running Bejive (IM) - connection last a bit less (before the 1st drop).

- when I add Skype & LoudTalks : almost every 5 minutes connection drops.

I also noticed that after a voice phone call, sometimes data connection doesn't (cannot) restart by itself ...

Here is an idea :

Is there a way to tweak Operator connection like it can be done with HTC phones : GSM + CDMA, CDMA Only ?

Because when you switch the phone to CDMA only, it uses different frequencies and allow to keep data connections while talking on the phone.

Didn't find that option in Captivate Glide settings ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] vil33:
Settings --> Wireless and Network --> Mobile Networks --> Network Mode

Didn't make a difference for me using HSPA only.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
I just checked ... I don't have the "Network Mode" option in "Mobile Networks" section.

I have Roaming, allow data connection, APN, ... but not Network mode.

Weird...

I checked the operator info. Nothing out of the ordinary there.

I'm stuck ...and it keeps happening. No solution for now. :(
[Samsung Captivate Glide] vil33:
Maybe try flashing the Rogers kernel and ROM since that's what I have?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
Already did that, but that was a few days ago when looking for the WiFi tethering feature ...

I'll flash it back to Rogers kernel & ROM and test.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
Update: Flashed Rogers rom.

Good news is I now have the Network settings back. (AT&T rom is not the right one, for sure !)

Data connection last longer. But the issue is still here.

Still investigating...:confused:

Anyone else having this issue ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gabby131:
the day before yesterday, I went to the copier room in my school and stayed for about 2 hours (too many copying). before i get out, i have no signal (mobile network not available). I need to go out to have signal back or reboot.

It happened again yesterday on the exact same location, I'm going to be there again now.

I believe it might be location wise....in my case at least.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] frav:
I checked, looks like it is not linked to a specific location. I've been travelling and issue kept occuring.

Once data connection is ok, it usually stays up for 2 to 5 minutes, then drops.

"4G" symbol is still displayed - but no more data connection. Web pages not available in browser, no email sync, no more IM, ...

While data connection is down, Cellphone still works, WiFi as well.

It may be linked to an APN issue ... Or definitely a Radio ROM issue.

I'm running Baseband I927RUXKJ5.

Anyone else having this issue ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] eddiert:
When I got the phone the AT&T rep told me there was a known issue with the phone dropping down to lower data speed. He told me if I experienced it to get a new SIM card. Doesn't sound exactly the same but maybe try that?

Guys

Quite daft question really, but I do not see a way for me to enter a carriage return (enter character) in order to format a SMS message? All the message text goes on the same line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s1977:
Have we all stopped using SMS to send messages?? :) Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
Kik FTW. :)

But yeah, it seems as though there's no option to substitute the smiley key for the return key on the default keyboard... one hideous workaround would be to compose in Gmail, then copy and paste into Messaging. :rolleyes:

You could install another keyboard...but that's sort of ridiculous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
If you push the space bar enough times and then type something it will start on the next line
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s1977:
Good that you confirmed that.. I was going mad trying to search for a way to format a simple message. The OS is two steps forward and one step backwards in some areas really...

Yep, another keyboard stands as a possible solution, but I wonder why Google missed such an obvious option.. :)

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
It also wastes that many of your 140 characters, and will not necessarily wrap to the same location on the receiving device. Not a realistic solution in this case. It's similar to people centering text in documents by adding spaces to the front of the text instead of just hitting "Align Center". ;)

Yeah, it is unusual. It would be an incredibly simple fix if I had the messaging app source code, though. I imagine the text field is just set to a certain type of input, much like the 10-digit keyboard that comes up in certain contextual fields. Is the messaging app part of AOSP? I think it is. I should play around with that... *makes a mental note*
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s1977:
I would have imagined that the carriage return would appear as an option directly or in one of the contextual options. Looking at some of the characters included, I find it hillarious that they have included characters like copyright, pi, carat, etc....Who uses these in SMS's? scientists? :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _TB_TB_:
I know its old, but...

... 've been wondering how to put LF in SMS messages.

See the attached LatinIME, it has two smilies changed and an Enter button on the dot extra characters button.

[HTC Desire S] Kizzeeex:
I've an unrooted HTC Desire S, running on HTC Sense 2.1 & Android 2.3.3. I've tried using Android SDK & MyPhoneExplorer, but for sdk, when i opened the file i'm required to (i've seen loads of tutorials), my phone is not listed there. For MyPhoneExplorer, my phone could be sensed but there's no Load Screenshot button. I've no intention of rooting in case something happens. Any advice?

P.S./ I can't download paid apps so don't direct me to No Root Screenshot It..

Thanks!

Hint: This was the first result when searching on Google for "android screenshot app". Have you tried to do that before asking? (no sarcasm)

So at the moment I am currently working on developing a "bare bones" stock rom and modifying it as much as possible with scripts and such.

But what I would like to know from you all is what would you all like to see in the next rom?

Cyanogenmod?

More themes?

Faster?

Battery life?

Cool features?

I think it'd be good to hear you all thoughts & input.

Sent from my SK4G on XDA Premium
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] casper82384:
Cm6 or 7 and cooler apps to use and batter theams
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] pintek:
CM6 an CM7 have both been asked for in the past sadly i think the only way to get it is to mail one of the cyanogen developers a SK4g since it seams none of them have one to even begin making it avail on our phones by making the drivers an kernals from complete scratch like they have with devices like the nook. CM6 i don't know understand fully why we can't get because it is froyo based so the thing would be making a kernal (with out drivers in it from how much i understand building a android kernal). Then when creating the rom an figuring how to make it function more correctly with our odd frame work build. Honestly with themes if you got CM7 working that problem would be more or less taken out with the gingerbread theme engine they use in their roms which makes it a hell of alot easier to change how your phone looks.

Now to the people saying we need a kernal for gingerbread i understand that but then i do look at my nook color an I've tesed a ICS alpha build an have to say "um...... if a kernal is so godly important then how did they make one to run ics on a device that should never be able to run it that has bluetooth drives that were hand made because B&N never intended the device to have bluetooth an they had to hand make alot of other drivers just for the nook color. Anyways I'm getting a spare android phone in the next 10 days (xperia x10 mini) which is even capable of running gingerbread..... and has a alpha ics build.... am i missing something here?..
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
the kernel is what provides all of the drivers for the phone's hardware. The reason that it is difficult to build an updated kernel for the sidekick is because it uses hardware that isn't found in any other phones, and the drivers are only designed for the 2.6.32 kernel, rather than the 2.6.35 kernel required for GB/ICS.

The reason that ICS alpha builds are being released for the nook color and the xperia are because the CM devs put in the work to get the CM kernel working correctly. The CM kernel is designed in such a way that it can be updated quite easily with little breaking of drivers, but typically requires a large amount of rewriting drivers.

Basically, the reason that it came so fast to the nook color and the xperia is that the CM devs actually wanted those devices, so they bought them, and ported CM to them.

The fact is that the CM devs don't want anything to do with the Sidekick, and won't do anything with it short of someone handing them a free phone to work on.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wuziq:
is there any particular reason they don't want anything to do with the sidekick?

also, i assume we haven't tried collecting a glob of money to buy an sk4g off ebay or something... have we? seems like it'd be worth it...
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
I'm not 100% sure why, as I'm not one of them, but I'm guessing that it's because the sidekick is perceived as a teen/feature phone. Typically the support for Samsung phones is limited, and the amount of customization from Samsung on this phone compared to previous phones would require even more work out of them.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] -x]Trunks[x-:
Basically in order to get CM7/CM6 it would require the CM dev team 2 things:

1: Interest/Willing-ness to work on the phone

2: A Free SK4G to work on lol

I like the idea of the community all pitching in on buying the CM dev team the SK4G just so that they can begin to work on CM for our phone. CM would open up so many doors for new roms and ports :)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] pintek:
If it wasn't for the some slight disconfort in giving away my SK4g I'd mail it to a CM dev for them to go crazy with it.... after sending it to someone that can make the sidekick unbreakable modded >.> I'm getting the xperia X10 mini pro cause I can find them for cheap (got mine for 125 after shipping) an it has a hardware keyboard. I'll gladly pitch in money for one of the CM devs to get a sidekick though if they are interested.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wuziq:
it'd be nice to get a feel for the likelihood of the cm devs porting cm to sk4g if they had a phone. that way we can get more concrete on whether we should raise funds for a phone to send to them. i tweeted cyanogen to ask, but got no response. maybe someone else can get to him or other cm devs?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] :
i did posted in the cm forums someone in the xda forums made a bounty request?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wuziq:
and did any dev respond?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] boss2688:
stock GB or ICS(cm7/9 would be fine too), better battery life (the current crop of roms are terrible), stripped down lite version would be nice too( no preinstalled apps just bare min)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] :
No one replied
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
I think that none of the cm team want anything to do with the sk4g is that cyanogen himself didn't like the sk4g. So in result his cm team of followers didn't want anything to do with it. They would be embarrased to be caught with one. For some one that has worked on many diffrent phones like them, it shouldn't be hard to rewrite a kernel.

Think about it, they get cm on almost any new phone that comes out? Don't you think that every phone that comes out have diffrent drivers? Someone has to backwards engineer a driver to get a kernel out that's compatible with cm "roms". Its just a matter of having a member that knows how to code, cm isn't the only person in the world that know how to.

But then again this is just my opinion...
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] :
so pretty much we got swcred because of cm dislikement of the phone and his groupies don't want to get kicked out of their team so they don't do anything about it? WOW talk about tyrany
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
Yuup, even if it sounds rediculous, seems that way.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wuziq:
did cyanogen actually say somewhere that he didn't like the sk4g?

even if he did, why would he poopoo on another dev that ported cm to it? he'd want cm to be on as many phones as possible. "how dare someone do work that i didn't really want to do?" no. he's not some evil overlord with a bunch of peon devs who back off whenever he gives a stern look.. because.. OSS projects don't work like that?

also, someone correct me if i'm wrong, but they're not rewriting kernels. they'd have to update sk4g drivers for the cm kernel.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] -x]Trunks[x-:
i know that they dont like EVERY phone that CM is on but they still "port" CM to as many phones as possible because that is their goal

i think that it could either be due to lack of interest or lack of not having the SK4G
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
I don't have the exact quotes, but they (the usual cm members) were reviewing the sk4g cm said he didn't like the fact that samsung made it, from there evry one weighed in on it..... source: it was on twitter. @koush @cyanogen and others, plus the retweet crap..
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] -x]Trunks[x-:
so b/c samsung made the sk4g and other galaxy s phones they won't port CM to the phones? :(

i think if we get enough community support by having a lot of us post on cyanogen's twitter and on their forums about it we could get possibly get them to port it :)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
Basically, but I'm happy with the mods we have now, but wished we had a stable overclock.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wuziq:
without seeing what they said, it sounds like a far cry from denouncing the phone.

pdt mods are a good start, but i'd still really like cm on this.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
the CM team (in my experience) tends to stray from Samsung phones in general because Samsung makes their drivers to work with their rom tweaks specifically, so they need to entirely rewrite the driver, rather than being able to just use the drivers as is, as the case is for HTC phones.

As I mentioned before, most of the time, if you give one of the CM team a phone to work on, they will work on it, but that's not guaranteed.

Basically, none of our current devs are experienced in porting CM or rewriting kernels, which will both be required heavily to get CM working on this phone. That's not to say I haven't tried, I worked for almost a month on getting CM to work, but my hangup was with the camera/camcorder. the driver is written very differently than it is for most phones, so there's no compatibility in CM for it, and the system crashes right away on boot.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] insanedrunk:
Thanks for the input, and attempt on cm port and for indirectly not making look like a liar, lol :) I have no proof but its on their twitter line somewhere. They do hate samsung phones, I didn't know why. I also bet they will hop on the galaxy nexus no problem though :(
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
They'll do the galaxy nexus because it's a Google flagship phone, and because of that, it will be nearly AOSP/stock Ice Cream Sandwich, rather than Touchwiz.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] wolfepakt:
Steve (cyanogen) works for Samsung.... Why does he hate them? I am confused.... :confused:
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] HeavyYeti:
Is this the reason even Samsung is slow on updates for this phone? The SGS4G got it's GB update, on the same processor. What is it about this phone that makes it such a pariah for development? Even from it's manufacturer?

This is a method to get a recovery menu on every boot, while also supplying a secondary /system partition. This essentially lets us dual boot the default moto rom, and whatever other rom we want, without having to worry about getting into an unrecoverable state.

Make SURE you remove the razrbootstrapper program, AND completely remove the CWM on every boot mod if you have flashed that.

Instructions to remove CWM on every boot:

Please note that backups made in CWRecovery are NOT compatible with Safestrap due to partition renaming, etc.

I had the same problem at first: this is due to not flashing a rom once you turn on safe mode. Think of it like dual booting a computer if you don't install anything on that second partition nothing will show. You just need to install a rom under safe mode and then you will be good to go
