[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
Go here http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ and try the newest version thats available. Also in settings check the router fix option.

Also you can try open garden from the market..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proskier101:
got it. I had to go into the settings.

wifi tether>settings> enable Routing fix

Then it worked.

My neighbors now have one les person stealing their wifi. Thank you!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatt00l:
Still no luck here, may just be the rom? Ill try another with the new wifi and see if that works.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flooritnfly:
I'm on Liquid 3.2 and I've had the best luck recently with Open Garden (wireless tether app)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proskier101:
@ tatt: did you go to that link above and download the new app to your phone?

I never did this on the old Rom so it may be that.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
I noticed that the android wifi tether app states that it only works for 3G and 2G. I wonder if this is just a "canned" statement? Does anyone know, for sure, if it works for 4G tethering?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatt00l:
Yeah I did, neither the old or new one are getting more than limited access. Know idea what may have changed on the PC side? Nothing new or changed? Just the outrage on Verizons end last week. I'm baffled. I have tried a couple other Rome with the same results. Sucks pdanet is a third of the speed.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mordecaidrake:
There's a bug with CM7 if your using it, I'm having the same problem. I have a none stock kernel with it but I can't using wifi-tether or the built in tether. Makes me want to switch to my sense ROM. :/
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
It works for 4g, I use it all the time. Im running stock rooted sense
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mordecaidrake:
If you're running CM7 set your built in tethering to OPEN for security and run this version of wireless tether use the same name as the built in one and it'll work. I finally got it working a few minutes ago.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatt00l:
Thanks will give it a try when I get home.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
Thank you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proskier101:
It works on my 4g, I tested it with a speed test website and was getting 5mbs.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] proskier101:
I dont know what I did but my hotspot can only hit .25 mbps now according to speedtest.net :mad:

I then watched the speed on the hotspot and it shows the same :mad::mad:

Its been like this for a week now, does any one know the settings layout on the hotspot? Are theer any that could affect this?

I have rebooted my phone, switched airplane on and off. I then tested the speed on my phone and it is getting 4g, so the problem is with the hotspot.

Try changing the type of connection to Infastructure or Ad-Hoc. I don't remember which one it was, but one of these fixed a very similar issue for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no.human.being:
Hey xda-developers,

first, I would like to apologize for my imperfect English. It's not my first language. :)

Next think I would like to mention: I am new to this forum and got a warning when I was about to post this in the "Android software and hacking general" section. I got told that one will get banned for posting anything "not development-related" here, (quote) "meaning, if you're not posting a ROM" (/quote).

Well, my post is definitely development-related. However, I am not exactly about to post a ROM. Instead, I am about to develop an S-OFF method for the phone. Obviously, this is development-related, but the result of my development activity obviously won't be a ROM, but (hopefully) a new S-OFF method. However, I decided that it is more safe to post it here. I definitely do not want to get banned from this forum. I want to continue using this account in order to ask for support and keep you up-to-date about my progress, so I decided it is better not to post in the development section. Moderators, please feel free to move this post wherever you consider it appropriate. Thanks. :-)

The question I have is: Is it possible to gain S-OFF on a stock HTC Wildfire S (Marvel, Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM7227, HBOOT-0.90.0000, MICROP-0451, RADIO-7.53.39.03M, Android 2.3.7, S-ON) using a suitable JTAG debugger?

I am a computer scientist specializing on high performance computing and IT security and I have the opportunity of getting access to a JTAG debugger (OpenOCD) and interface at university. I imagine the device security is something like a binary flag inside the Flash memory and raw access to Flash memory could be obtained using the device's JTAG interface. However, I would like to make sure that I do not waste time on the university's devices fiddling around with the phone and not getting anything done in the end. So I would like to prepare as thoroughly as possible, before bringing my phone to the laboratory. So the first question I have: Does anyone see a problem with this attempt or know for sure, whether this will work or not (at least in principle)?

Furthermore, I would like to ask you for any references about what can be done on these devices using the JTAG interface, as well as any references about where the "device security flag" is located inside the on-chip memory of the device.

I will try to gain access to a JTAG debugger and break the device security, documenting everything as thoroughly as possible in the progress. I will then try to use the experience gained from the debugging session, in order to get a software S-OFF done (think like Revolutionary, which unfortunately doesn't support the MSM7227 chipset of the Marvel yet), enabling more HTC phones to be rooted without resorting to the expensive xtc-clip method.

Thank you very much for your support. Maybe together, we can get some sort of universal software method for rooting/S-OFF done, at least for the HTC devices.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hardikrajgor123:
Good to see someone pushing hard for the Wildfire S-off cause! Wishing you luck mate.

Come on devs, give him your insights! (wish I could help)

mybe we can try to unlock bootloade, if we become the unlock_code.bin from here:

and can modify it for wildfire S
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no.human.being:
This is the official unlocking from HTCdev, right? Unfortunately, you can only unlock the HTC Evo, Flyer and Sensation. HTC announced that "all 2011 models going forward" will be unlocked (which would include the WFS, as it was released May 2011), but HTC have not yet announced WHEN they will do so, so I'm still sceptical.

First thing we need to do is find out, where the security flag is located in the phone's memory. I will then try to set/reset (I'm not sure whether S-ON is device security flag SET or RESET, but I will just check its state as the device is currently S-ON and write the opposite value back) this bit via JTAG. Afterwards, the device should be S-OFF (like if you would have used the xtc-clip on the device).

Next thing will be the construction of an exploit that will give you root access inside the Android OS (you probably cannot access low-level things like the NAND memory by software without root access) by some "privilege escalation" mechanism (probably by "overtaking" the context of a privileged system process).

Well. As soon as we have root access, software S-OFF should just be flipping of the bit we located during our JTAG session by means of our (now hopefully privileged) software process. This should enable us to S-OFF phones via a software exploit, so that the users won't have to acquire (and operate) a JTAG debugger themselves for gaining S-OFF (they are quite expensive and difficult to operate).

When there is no information available about where the security flag is stored in the NAND, this can get really really hard. If this information is already known, we will "only" have to find an exploit for getting root access inside the Android system and then write some code which does the exploit and turns off device security afterwards. If someone knows, where and how device-security is encoded in the NAND (or can make an educated guess), then please tell it here! If someone thinks that this method is not working, please tell it here (and also tell why you think it will fail)! If someone has alternative methods, please mention them here! If someone has experience with JTAG debugging and/or programming on ARM or embedded systems in general, I'd ask that person to provide support.

Thank you very much in advance. I'll see if I can get some forensics interested in this project here at the university, as there will probably be a lot of data to skim through (datasheets, memory dumps, etc.) in order to find the exact memory address at which the device security flag is stored. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoSi™:
Oh God, let's give this man (no.human.being & all others that trying it) all money and power needed to S-OFF Wildfire S(hit) (**** because of Sense. Just hating it). If this may lead to official support of Cyanogen Rom, I will be the happiest man on earth right there.

BTW .. i am willing to buy even XTC-Clip, it can S-OFF the phone. But there is no ROM :-(

Good luck, people are waiting for this ... :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] macmic6:
Hi,

I'm coming to the experts here because I need some help. I have two adopted handicapped children who have severe spastic Cerebral Palsy. They can only communicate by facial gestures or by pressing a switch. Neither can use a touch pad. I have been looking for an Android app that has preset pages in which I can put symbols and record a word or phrase so that they can select it and speak with us. The app needs a scanning mode so that they don't have to move a cursor to select the picture. So far I have only found Apple apps. :-( . We have android tablets. 2 XOOM and a Vizio 8".

So my question is.... can one of you brilliant minds help handicapped children communicate with the world? I would be willing to test your app in my household. I don't care if I make anything from it except to be able to say "The kids are driving me crazy, why won't they be quiet for a minute!! ". That would be amazing!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jamieg71:
This is an excellent idea, my younger brother is mentally handicapped. His speach aptitude is that of a 2 year old. His whole life, 35yrs, he has relied on a communication book to comunicate with people that don't know sign language. I've thought of an app like you described above.

It would seem that an application such as this could be implemented for translation purposes as well.

I hope a kind hearted dev sees this thread and recognizes the potential for an application of this type.

I have no programming or developmental back ground, but would be more than willing to handle all of the graphics for a project should someone take it on.

Thank you for your thoughtful request. Feel free to pm me any time, perhaps we can combine efforts to find help with this.

I tried calling my phone from a different phone to leave a voicemail. I get the automated reordering saying that I'm unavailable. Then I try leaving a message and nothing. I literally lost my voicemail service..... Help please
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Have you tried calling Tmobile? Maybe they can reset your voicemail acct. on their end?

Otherwise maybe make a nandroid and flash a different ROM, and see if it works there?

Have you been using the regular Tmo voicemail service, and have you checked your voicemail settings? A quick solution could also be to install Google Voice or Youmail, and let that set up and handle your voicemail for now. One time I set up Google Voice and then wanted to go back to my carrier's voicemail, and I was in kind of a gray area until I went to G Voice on my computer and deleted my phone number there.

Anyway, just throwing out some ideas, I hope it helps you some.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Etrick:
Call your number, hit star, password prompt. If you don't remember psw, restore a nandroid, call from your phone, change psw, profit. Make a nandroid b4 u restore one. Tmobile resets it.

So my phone has been overheating and I called in last week to get another one, they said they will send out one as soon as possible. I was looking at the status email that they sent me and in it there is this blurb:

Get started with your

How are there refurbs for this phone already? I usually don't have a problem with refurbs but since i bought a new phone I am expecting a new phone as replacement . Should I keep the refurb or pester them for a new one?
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
Because of all those fanboys returning their Rezound to get the Gnex. Also, there were some phones that did have issues (overheating, "pink buttons", data drops, stuck pixels, etc.).

If I were you, I would accept the refurb device and check EVERY single thing on the phone out to find any issues whatsoever. If you do find something, simply call back and explain how upset you are that you have received two defective devices. Maybe then they CSR can get a brand new one sent out to you.

Refurb

The reason I am so crazy paranoid about checking my phone for heat is that I do not want to enter the refurb pool. Did it three times on my Incredible. The refurb pool right now is full of overheating and dead pixel phones.

But the bigger question is WHY you are in the refurb pool. Isn't the deal that phones bought now get an extended period through January 15th?
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
that is why I'm not too worried. if it don't work better, I will just call VZW and get a brand new one. but sometimes, refurb products work better than new. just gonna test this out for now.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Wow. The phone has only been out a month and they're already talking refurbs? Sucks majorly.

My Incredible lasted 18 months but my daughter went through 3 in the last year.

[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
the "Jan 15" extended warrenty only applies to phones purchased from Nov 15+ and only from Verizon stores. If you bought one from Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc... then you just have their warrenty, not the Jan 15 one.(already confirmed with a VZW CSR)
[HTC Rezound] tynman11:
I just got a refurb phone and it's noticeably better. Actually have red LEDs now and the audio, while still somewhat hissy, not near as bad.

[HTC Rezound] phillybizzle:
that's what they did for.me. I started with a Droid2 then after 5 defects they upped me to a Droid X then a Incredible then incredible2 and finally here I am w a rezound
[HTC Rezound] xRogerxC:
There is no way I would accept a refurb at this point. Where did you buy your phone? You should still be in the 30 day exchange window for places like Best Buy.

Do not settle for a refurb! If you do, the chances of you exchanging in the future for a new one are 1 in a million.

[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I had 3 rezounds in a row with stuck/dead pixels. For my 4th one I contacted warranty again since they offered to charge a new one to my account since I was out of my 14 day period. So the rep was like oh yeah I see those notes but what I can do for you now is ship you out a Thunderbolt. I'm like really? How is that phone an acceprtable replacement for the Rezound? You guys are giving me a dated device in place of a device that just came out? I was like yeah I'm not going to accept an outdated device to have my DOA phone replaced. Then I asked her so basically what you're telling me is I'm SOL and you guys are like hey! Here's an old phone for the brand new one you just go? She's like uh well I don't want to say it like that... I was like then don't say it, just get me a new rezound shipped out. Ten minutes later brand new Rezound shipped out with no issues besides the occasional audio jack bs. Refurbs aren't too bad the quality has gone up. At this point since the device is so new you'll probably be getting someone's return.
[HTC Rezound] Slacker101:
I came to this phone from the charge via refurb and the first one I got had a scratch and the audio problem. However, second one looks like it has never been touched. The screen is perfect and the audio jack is significantly better. The hiss is still there but hardly noticeable at all.
