[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mepster:
Hi Fellas,

I've been looking around and have been unable to find some definitive answers with regards to the LACK of NFC in the UK Galaxy SII, some places list it as included (though my battery isnt one of those...)

I've been reading into it and understand the NFC chip is actually built into the battery... is this correct? and if so surely before long you'll be able to just purchase a NFC enabled battery, slap that bad boy in and get Beaming...!

is this possible? thoughts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSA:
Unless there are connectors between the battery and the inside of the phone (that arent for charging), how will it connect? it will just be a chip in a battery..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mepster:
yeah that was a thought I had Im not basing my view on any real evidence, just opinions I've read on various forums that it is built into the battery! twas just a thought tbh as I'm a smidge disappointed at the lack of NFC as it seems a neat feature and a number of business I use locally support it already!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuclark:
The NFC antenna is in the battery package, but the actual NFC chip lives deep in the phone.

(so no, changing the battery won't give you NFC on an i9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tfn:
Heard somewhere that New sim Cards will come with NFC capabalities so probably most phones might get it when it goes main stream in UK

Rumour was Orange were trialling it or something
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
There apparently is an NFC chip (PN544) within the phone - at one point Pulser was able to actually get it to accept a firmware load.

It didn't do anything beyond that though - attempting to enable NFC in Settings would cause it to just hang there.

Not sure what would happen if someone put an NFC-enabled battery in the I9100. (The I777 has NFC hardware but AT&T disabled it in software - we've been able to re-enable it though, minus Google Wallet support)
[General Questions and Answers] ukaussi:
I have been an I.T. support engineer for 15 years or so and love a challenge. Consequently my departement director gave me one to see if I could figure it out before our HQ I.T. could. It is annual review time so I naturally accepted the challenge.

Challenge - Connect an Android Tablet to a wired ethernet connection and run a speed test on the wired connection.

We have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (model GT-P7510 to be exact)

Android version - 3.2

Kernel Version - 2.6.36.3

USB Debugging mode is enabled

Unknown sources (install of non-Market apps) is enabled.

Purchased a Samsung EPL-1PL0BEGXAR USB Connection Kit for the Galaxy Tab 10.1

Purchased a USB RJ45 Ethernet 10/100 Network Lan Card Adapter

(cant post links yet but search for "New USB RJ45 Ethernet 10/100 Network Lan Card Adapter For Apad E11 Haipad")

When you connect the USB RJ45 device it is not recognized.

To ensure the USB was working I verified that a USB thumb drive was recognized and files could be accessed.

The USB RJ45 device came with a CD with drivers for various OS including what appeared to be Android as they had indicated on their website that this particular tablet could work with the device. (DRIVERS ATTACHED AS ZIP)

Apparently it may be a usb2net type device from what I could determine looking through the files.

As I am a complete novice at Linux, Android etc I did not know what to do with these files or how and where to copy them to on the Android Tablet.

I spent free time over the past couple of weeks looking through forums and even downloaded Android SDK Manager and read up on what adb was and was able to use a command prompt to browse the device folder structure.

So, as I have a crazy week and then off for xmas break I and am turning to the experts and asking for your advice.

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated

usb2net GT-P7510

Hi,

I can see your post is quite old... but I'm in the same case :

"Looking for a way to connect my Galaxy tab 10.1 (GT-P7510) to a wired ethernet"

I have the usb2net cable (usb to RJ45) but this connection is not recognize by the GT-P7510 ... is there a way to update the firmware?

I've seen the the galaxy tab 2 recognize the ethernet connections.

If you or someone founded a way, could you explain please.

Thx a lot.

If I forgot anyone Kindly let me know
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
Hello, I have a HP Touchpad 32GB running with Cyanogen Alpha3.

Yesterday i set up a locked home screen with a pin.

But if my TP locked the screen there is no field and no pattern to put in a pin?

How can I fix these problem.

I reflash alpha 3 but the problem is still there.

Thanks for help.
[TouchPad General] lzhikai1994:
Have you got ADB set up for your touchpad?
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
No, do you have a how to do, for that ?
[TouchPad General] lzhikai1994:
ADB Install help:

http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/

How to unlock your device using ADB:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=971768

Then you can play with the lockscreen settings till you get the settings for CM7 right.

EDIT: The above links only allow you to unlock if you have the above problem, it won't help you fix this problem if this is a CM7 bug, but you can try.
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
But I am not sure is USB Debugging is on.

Or can I reset my TP to factory settings ?
[TouchPad General] lzhikai1994:
If you didnt turn it off, its on by default, look for a bug in the notifications to verify it.

Reset, I'm not sure. When you reflash, it maintains the previous settings?

Side note: It is good to have ADB installed, it is mandatory for a device like TouchPad which needs developers loving
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
Ok, than I will try it after work,

But there is a symbol on my notification bar, look like a oval, a horizontal line and a horizontal wave line and a red 4 on the corner.
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
Can I make a backup with cwm, than reset to Factory.

Reboot and than restore with cwm. Or if I restore all with cwm than I have the same set up ?

With the same Problem ?

Or it is possible to restore only my apps ?
[TouchPad General] lzhikai1994:
Backup apps + data using titanium backup after applying the above method. Don't back up restore with CWM cause you will still be locked out of your TouchPad like now

Now your priority is on getting into ur device to disable the lock or tweak the settings to perfection
[TouchPad General] lanski007:
But if my USB Debugging is off, than I have no chance with adb ?
[TouchPad General] lzhikai1994:
Yup you will not be able to use.

Hello guys,

just seen this and thought to put this here.. It seems amazon.de (german version of amazon) plans to slash the prices of Moto RAZR and Nokia Lumia in a large percentage (up to 50%) for a few hours only though..

here is the source link:

[Member-Found Deals] MRpeabodyia:
Thanks. I was hoping to see a stronger price cut. Funny how the article said it could be up to 50% but 20-30% was more probable and we didn't even see a 15% cut.

If it was half off I would have bought one for me and got another to be sold on Ebay.
[Member-Found Deals] MRpeabodyia:
Do you think the discount will be similar in size on the Lumia?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
I got a text msg from T-mobile this morning informing me that MY tethering access has been blocked. They want me to pay $14.00 dollars more a month for me to use my data how i want to (I currently pay $140 for unlimited talk/text and 10gb of data.) To me, this is ridiculous. Is there a work around for this? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

jononioo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
Are you on the stock ROM?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
I am on the latest CM7 Nightly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Prod1702:
try using one of these http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list you will have to try the different versions. I am using the latest version on CM7 and have no problems tethering. Now i do only have 5gb of data and most likely do not tether anywhere close to you do since you have the 10gb package. I have heard that if you are using the tethering under the network settings T-Mobile has away to find out. Now i am not sure if that is just with the stock rom or all roms. Give it a try you never know. All carriers charge for tethering not just T-Mobile or i think they do. So if you have to pay you have to pay.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] erikiksaz:
How often do you tether, how long do you tether, and what are you doing when you tether?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
interesting.. I tether daily for I'd say at least 2 hours total. hell I'm tethered right now. guess ill keep an eye out for that text.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
Is your tethering actually being blocked?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
I tether constantly for hours at a time daily.

Ok, so this is really weird. I can tether without issue when using Crome, but when i try to surf out using firefox, im forced to t-mobile's tether page. So it seems to be browser specific. It just so happens that i do web chats using firefox while tethering.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
How many gigabytes do you use per month?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
About 10gb per.... Why?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
Because "unlimited" isn't really unlimited. Although you say your plan allows 10GB per month, and you say you are using "about" 10GB, which is kinda vague?

For example, 10.1GB is not "about" 10GB if it's over your limit. To T-Mobile, 10.14GB can add an additional $14 per month

Mobile providers use words in the contract like "abuse", "unusual activity", and other such words. You don't seem to know exactly how much you are using per month, but it's a sure bet you are either going over 10GB or most probably you are tethering in a way that makes T-Mobile suspect unusual activity.

For example, most users use their mobile data bandwidth in spurts, but sustained data transfers gets T-Mobile's attention and can be labelled "unusual activity". It puts a load on T-Mobile's network. By contract, anything you do that affects T-Mobile's overall service will cause T-Mobile to take action.

If you are filesharing over tethering, that is sustained data activity and T-Mobile will know and penalize you for it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dvicens:
Excellent response couldnt have said it better myself. Becareful with the "abuse" of the data, i have a buddy of mine that was FORCED to have a 2gb plan. Yet again he is on att lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jamadio:
Along with the above statements, I did a bit of research before I started tethering on CM7.

Put simply, you can tether all you want as long as you don't go over the data cap. The only reason you've received that message is because you went over.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
T-Mobile has no special way to tell you're tethering on the G2x. They can on the SGSII, Amaze, LG MyTouch series, and a few other of the newest phones that are programmed in the tethering code to use an entirely different APN similar to the way that iPhones do. The G2x, however, does nothing of the sort.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
Wrong.

Even if you are under the data cap if you show long sustained data activity such as filesharing, T-Mobile will penalize you for it.

Yes they can tell. Any child can tell if the connection is tethered simply by looking at the HTTP headers!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] beergenius:
Tethering to a tablet

Ok. I just got a Toshiba thrive for Christmas. Is tethering to that seen any different? Just curious seeing as it's an Android device. I only Tether in spurts so I don't use a **** ton of data during(no file sharing). Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
The only way they can tell is by user agent string and that requires someone actually looking, which isn't usually being done...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
I wireless tether to my laptop 4 hrs and sometime more everyday. I play games on facebook. I have a pre-paid 5 GB data, unlimited talk and txt for $70 a month and I have yet to be block since I changed to it. I did however get blocked when I was on a regular plan as I hit 2gb of the 5gb I had. I did the same amount of tethering then as I do know.

So why then and not now, I really couldn't tell you.

If you're using 10 gb a month, you're doing more than social browsing or facebook apps. Stop downloading the movies and music and you will see a difference. 10 gb? Really?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rsegura77:
So I just got t989 and I wanted to tether but now I'm forced to pay, I use to have sgs4g and tethering was free. So do I have to just root or install a custom ROM to avoid adding tethering option to my plan
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
Nope. Wrong.

Not just the user-agent string, but the entire HTTP headers. You can examine the packets also and learn a lot (is it a TCP or UDP? Is it FTP or HTTP?)

These things are done automatically by monitoring software.

Stop making **** up.

I should clarify, the reason I m asking for instructions is because one I flash the ROM through CWM, I still have a 897 kernel, and I know that's gonna cause bootloops.

I would put the rom on the phone, put phone in download mode open odin and flash and flash the sauram or the mtcarrey kernel in the pda slot, plug in phone and once it connects, wait an additional 5 seconds then flash the kernel. After it goes to reboot, take battery out and 3 button to recovery, wipe phone, clear data, clear delvak cache and then install the rom and you should be good to go.
