Anyone having data connection issues with the sense 3.5 non overclocked ROM? I really don't know if it is the ROM or something else. Here are the symptoms.

Phone gets stuck on 3G sometimes. Turning data on/off does not restore the connection. I have to fully reboot the phone to get the H back.

Many times when using apps that access the internet, the apps just take forever to load or to load pictures. The connection seems so slow sometimes I even get the network failure error. But if I go to the market and download apps, the download is very fast. Using speedtest.net app and I always get between 2 and 6MB download speeds. But apps such as craiglist, ebay, myyearbook, weatherbug, and so fourth sucks donkey uhh...toes.

This all started happening a little over a week ago. And here is something new. Just got done browsing craigslist. Seemed to load good. Just went to speedtest and it found the closest server and got stuck on testing ping. Phone said 3G at this time. Kicked it into airplane mode for 30 seconds and then back off. Surprisingly the phone now shows an H. But all apps say no connection although I see the arrows light up.

I run no apps that mess with my internet connection. I live in south central PA. Anybody else having issues close to this?

Comparable Rom?

Anyone know of a Rom that is almost as good as this one stock fast performance and good battery life?:confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
you said you changed the apn's, the apns that came with the rom were from at&t,this would cause your issue@them not being correct.if it just started then it could be them working on the network also...
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
Shrugs,dont know Ive never flashed or used anyone elses...lol:p:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I have been running the same dual APN from day 1 on this 2.7v ROM. That is not the cause.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
If it was working fine before and just recently started doing this, I would think it is network related.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
That is one of the causes I was thinking. Didn't know if ATT could just disrupt my connection like that. However a reboot brings it back to normal for awhile.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
I also said that it could be network related...smh...whatever...if you know the cause then why are you asking about it, ever since you felt slighted and thought i insulted you when i didnt actually,youve had this "tude"...but its all good....this is one of the reasons i stopped on this project....if so unhappy and can do better....build your own rom...ive nothing more to say....
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I guess you think your ROMs run 100% on 100% of the phones out there and you know more than everyone including HTC. I really don't know what your problem is. I ask a question about a problem I am having mainly to see if anyone else has had the issue. Gee, I thought this is what this section was for. Did I bad mouth your ROM? Hell No! But you seem to have an ego problem. So sorry if I hurt your feelings. Take a chill pill brother and relax. Don't single me out to listen to your whiney bullcrap. You can take the glory but you can't take any hint of criticism.
[HTC Inspire 4G] :
lol...funny guy...nope i dont think they run 100% on anything...i dont have a problem...your snide remarks prompt my responses to be honest....dont care if you do bad mouth the rom...I am not a glory hound,im actually the opposite...i give credit to everyone else but myself, no ego here none whatsoever....this was a fun thing while it lasted...didnt hurt my feelings at all...could not care one way or the other actually...i have no problem with criticsm,none at all if i did this rom wouldnt run like it does or did....nobody on this side is whining...lmao...this little rom doesnt make me or break me...i dont even use the device anymore...was being done as I said a project...nothing more nothing less...;)..you have a good one there....;):cool:

[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
Wow. .let's start over & forget about this. I haven't had the APN problems. .but it sounds like something is building up in configuration & caussing feedback.

Do you have System Tune installed? It will log any thing I think & you will be able to see what it is.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
It is actually quite confusing PakRatt. And as I mentioned in the first post about the issue I didn't know if it was the phone, ROM, or network. It is a combination of things going screwy. Don't know why it would get stuck on saying 3G and stay on it all day or 2 days until I reboot the phone and immediately be back to H. I don't know why anything that tries to access the internet at times takes forever for pages or pics to load but I can download from the market with amazing speeds and even speedtest shows the same.

The APN has not changed from day 1 that I installed the ROM.

If it was windows I would think I definitely got malware. But I don't believe that to be the case here. After a reboot yesterday things seem to be going fine today as I havent experienced any of the issues yet. I almost think it might have something to do with wifi. I need to do more testing but it seems after using wifi or the hotspot for a period of time this is when things go crazy. Just got home from work and I am going to experiment a bit.

Now if there is some snide remark in what I just posted please let me know. Not here to offend anyone. Just stating what I do/don't know in hopes of fixing my issue and maybe help someone else who has also experienced the same.
[HTC Inspire 4G] PakRatt:
Well sometimes just typing your problems out will cause a light to Flash & and also someday someone will have the same problem and find all this helpful in rule'n out things while trouble -shooting.

Clock Widget

I check here from time to time. Hoping WC comes back in. Don't close it.

Question, is there a way to export this ROM's 4 x1 flip clock widget for use in an ICS ROM? I've been trying out ICS 4.0.3] aospX 1.0.0-AR26, but always come back to WCX.

There are knockoffs in the market, but nothing with the quality of the original Sense 3.5 flip clock widget. It'd be nice if I could somehow save it and import it into an ICS ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I doubt that the mods will close it. That would only cause new threads elswhere to arise in case anyone ever had a question.

I am no WildChild but I can safely say you cannot pull the clock from this ROM and use it in another ROM that is not of the same Sense or doesn't have Sense.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
There is only 1.

ICS gives us:

- window rotating animation like iPhone.

- full screen contact pictures while calling. (but google saves pictures in smaller size, and after you sync back, pictures will get pixelated).

- cool lockscreen.

I think thats all. It is bit laggy. Flashed back into CM7.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth_Munkee:
First off this is just my opinion so take it as such. I personally like ICS a lot. The menu layout is pretty good and I like some of the features that aren't there in other versions. Nothing ground breaking really just small stuff like the data usage monitor is nice to have. I really like having the Widgets in the app drawer so i can see what they look like without dragging them out on to a home screen. It just seems nice and clean to me. And I do have to agree with you that this brought nothing as profound as flash to the OS, but what is there to add? I'm sure they will continue to add new features just as they have in the past but I am content with what they have now and love how it runs on my phone.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Just so everyone knows, the detailed bill is not the same as the regular bill. The detailed bill lists every phone number you called or texted. You can still receive your regular bill for free.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Detailed billing doesn't list the numbers you texted, just the calls (incoming/outgoing).

"Regular" really depends on your point of reference.

What you are describing as the regular bill is also called the summary bill.

From the Sprint blurb, even if you choose summary (paper bill), the detailed billing is still supposed to be available online.

Doesn't really bother me because I get ebills anyway. Dumb move by Sprint though, I can guarantee they get sued for this. Charging customers for paper copies of their bills is a big no-no. Sprint must be operating in the red.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Hahaha this and every one esle who is having a hay day with a $1.99 is hilarious in my book. Thats the equivalent of buying a cup of coffee once a month. Besides Sprint is by far the best deal around money wise. Also is the last of the big 4 that has unlimited data. It will be ok boys and girls :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BethyM:
I've set up ebill about 4 times in the last 6 years -- somehow it keeps defaulting back to paper, which is annoying all by itself. Thanks for the heads up so I can avoid the charge and the paper!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
That unlimited ship has sailed. 4GB is equivalent to unlimited for many people. Plus it works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DevilStrider:
Yep because even sprint will try to terminate your contract if you use to much data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
No, they don't.

Roaming data? Yes, that's different as Sprint has to pay that network's owner for the usage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
And even then you have to consistently have extreme roaming to get canceled.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nunyabiziz:

Now, if they were torrenting illegal downloads or excessive roaming that would explain it.

[Acer Iconia A500] tinybilbo:
Yup mine sucks as well... much worse than any of my phones.

I even tried put a copy of "iwconfig" into /system/bin

and then downloaded "Wifi txpower" from the market.

This gave me some control over the power output of the wifi card.

Except that my card was already at full power, so it did'nt improve anything,

I can at least lower power to conserve battery now...

I think a hardware mod to the internal antenna is what is really needed, although I don't think it's been done yet...
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
What specific versions are you running?

I keep signal (3-4 skulls) outside my flat and in the lift for about 2 floors.

[Acer Iconia A500] xceebeex:
What do you mean what versions am I running? I have the latest 3.2.1 running and the wifi has never been good. If I had known it was going to be this bad I might have returned it. I think I am outside my return window though since I bought it on Thanksgiving.
[Acer Iconia A500] timmyDean:
Bad, has been bad, and always will be (in my opinion). I have several of these and they are worse than other models. I've tried several ROM's and they don't make a difference. So therefore, I've come to the belief that it's the hardware.

[Acer Iconia A500] xceebeex:
That is what I was afraid of. I am not sure if I should try and sell this and get something else or just deal with it, but it is certainly annoying and makes it pretty useless when it can't pick up wireless.
[Acer Iconia A500] xceebeex:
Are there any other tricks that might get the wifi working better? Can rooting and installing a different ROM help?
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
aw crap, I was hoping for a software fix :/

My reception is abysmal. My laptop gets 4 out of 5 bars from my laptop, my crappy phone gets full bars of wifi, and my tab gets... 1-2 bars. It fluxuates from which way I hold it if I get any reception in the bathroom at all.
[Acer Iconia A500] qhorque:
The first unit I bought had a defective Wi-Fi but was able to exchange it where I bought it for a functioning unit. Unfortunately, the new one is not spectacular but it does indeed work around my home, upstairs, downstairs and outside though the signal is pretty poor.

Must be a short or overly shielded antenna. My Droid X cellphone has excellent reception and three laptops have excellent reception albeit with multiple internal antennas.

Need to find an A500 tear-down online to see what it looks like inside to see what the antenna arrangement is. If it's somehow modifiable then it can likely be improved though you'll have to take it apart

Or search for a USB Wi-Fi that is usable with Android and this device!

Sounds like a design flaw to me.

[Acer Iconia A500] qhorque:
Yeah, that looks like it and it looks like it's strung out along the top in landscape (or right in portrait). It's a bit away from the edge of the case but not buried too deep. It looks like a standard antenna length as compared to a laptop. Interesting that it's weak. Maybe the WLAN card is just a crappy performer. I'll have to look up that part number and see what its specs are.

Try setting the 11G channel number on your wireless router to something different. I had big problems with mine when the router was set to auto. I changed it to channel 6 and it started working great.

Not sure if the antenna is more sensitive to certain channels than others.
[Acer Iconia A500] xceebeex:
I doubt that is the issue since the channels are so close in frequency. Either way, neither my router nor access point are broadcasting on channel 11.

My fire is rooted but I never registered it. Is registering just for using the amazon market and what not? Do I just leave it unregistered?
[Kindle Fire General] FlashFire1:
Yes, registering the Kindle Fire gives you access to the Amazon AppStore, Amazon Prime, Amazon Bookstore, Amazon Newsstand, etc.

You can register it if you want but if you don't use the Amazon Services it's not necessary.

I was trying to use the Kindle Fire Utility to push the market onto my Fire since I was having issues doing it otherwise. It actually ended up pushing all the gapps onto my phone, an Eris, and at some point I guess messed with the drivers, because after I (understandably freaked out and) unplugged my phone the utility couldn't find any devices at all. It was about then that I noticed that my computer has apparently ceased to recognize my Fire being plugged in or unplugged at all. It doesn't show up on the devices window or the device manager at all. It's like it never existed. I have no idea how to fix this with the drivers being completely missing from device manager and the computer not even giving any hint that it's noticed when the device is plugged in, and I'd really like some advice here.

[Kindle Fire General] judasthehelpful:
If the device is missing from device manager, and your computer is refusing to show the installed drivers for it, I would try this:

Open an elevated command prompt and type this:

set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1

Then go to start and into the search bar type in devmgmt.msc

Then when device manager opens, click "view" at the top, and click "Show hidden devices"

Any non-present devices that have had drivers loaded for them in the past should show up here. You should be able to right click on the kindle and click uninstall and with any luck when you plug your kindle back in, it will pick it up again.

Best of luck

If I try to reinstall packages it tries to open update.zip (which doesn't exist) and doesn't let me choose a .zip from my SD card. Also I get the E: signature verification failed.

I had CM7 on my captivate and I remember having this same problem but don't remember how I solved it. Any help would be appreciated because I am feeling frustratingly slow on this. Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] xIC-MACIx:
Sounds like you need to install modded 3e recovery (putting the modded recovery file into system/bin) then hit "reinstall packages" option twice. Try THIS link

That gives you working CWM

When you get to flashing CM7, after the first flash, a battery pull and re-flash is needed. Also don't forget to flash gapps!
