[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
alright. i'm not a android dev (i am a programmer but another language than java). here is what i found in my testing and how i was able to get wifi to work..perhaps others can confirm. the problem is delvik cache and wifi being enabled when the phone is restarted.

here is how i was able to get wifi to work on mine consistently (some of the miui dev should take it from here and see if they can resolve the issue).

1) turn off wifi on the phone

2) shut down phone

3) boot into clockwork mod

4) clear delvik

5) reboot phone

6) enable wifi

7) wifi calling works

you will have to do this every time you reboot the phone otherwise wifi calling will not work.

i also tried to see if the issue was resolved by "fix permissions" and it was not. here were my test (also note..when i say reboot recovery...i shut down the phone then go to recovery..not recovery from restart script).

1) wifi on...reboot recovery..delvik clear..reboot-- no wifi calling (invalid sim)

2) wifi on..reboot recovery..permission fix..reboot -- no wifi calling (invalid sim)

3) wifi on..reboot recovery..delvik clear + permission fix..reboot -- no wifi calling (invalid sim)

4) wifi off..reboot recovery..delvik clear..reboot = WIFI calling

i going to also try the following

wifi off..reboot recovery..fix permission..reboot and see if that does anything.

**update** wifi off...reboot..-- just did this one and wifi calling doesn't work..invalid sim.

and i'm going to assume that if you do both with wifi off it will work.

a possible solution: someone create a script for shutdown/restart that turns off wifi (also save a variable stating that wifi was enabled) and also create a script for startup that clears delvik and enables wifi if it was on previously (not sure if you can save a variable on the next reload).

Update: this last go around was strange...i think there is also something with the state of wifi at the time the phone is rebooted. if you never turn on wifi then different settings need to be changed at bootup. i'll mess with it some more to confirm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lithivm:
That didnt work for me......
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
what were your exact steps? did you have wifi ON when you turned off your phone? if not you will have to do a 2nd wipe with wifi OFF then turn on wifi. Its very finicky but it does work.

The last version 2.1.20 works the first time but messes up when you reboot unless you do wipe of delvik cache. I would also wipe cache aswell.

if you leave your wifi on, then just a single wipe works..if you are messing with your wifi to on and off state it sometimes require 2 wipes...with the same wifi state on the reboot (hope that makes sense).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tirtawn:
This method confirm works.

The wifi calling can be turned on but could not be turned off.it still shows as invalid sim so i could not change the state of the on off switch.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GFam4:
What got to work for me was this::)

With Wifi turned-off, Reboot straight into Recovery

Wipe Dalvik Cache in Advance Settings 3x (Three Times)

Hopefully when you reboot and you click on the Wifi Calling app it says either Turned OFF or Disabled. That's how you know you won't get the INVALID SIM error.

If it says Checking Sim, Then Repeat the Steps above again and it may take a couple tries which I had to do cause it didn't do it the first.

I remember back in the days of when MIUI first came out and I had a N1 & an NS the guys at MIUIandroid would recommend wiping 3x whenever you do updates. I guessing because a single wipe for some reason still leaves something behind.

Try That Out Fellows and Hopefully It works for some of you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
do you have problems on reboot? or does it stay consistent?

also when you say wipe 3x are you saying BEFORE you install the ROM or after you install it and see that you have "invalid sim"?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GFam4:
With MIUI Rom you kinda have to expect inconsistency. If you've been following any Wifi Calling topic for the G2X with MIUI ROM you know its 50/50.

My Scenario basically is saying that If you currently are running MIUI Rom and IF it worked after intial install. Then when you rebooted (for whatever reason) and you get the Dreaded "Invalid Sim" error then my Steps that i followed helped me to get my Wifi Calling to work again.

The 3x wipe is after the install of rom if you lost the ability to use Wifi Calling. Now it doesn't hurt to do it (3x wipe) before if It may help you get Wifi Calling to work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GFam4:
Just tried it again with just Wiping Dalvik Cache 3x in Clockwork Recovery. It was a success!! This is the 5th time I've tried it and hasn't failed yet.

I am currently running Stormmagedon's MIUI 2.1.20 with Faux .48 kernel and I have sim card # TM9073

Hope This Helps Someone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
Are you wiping after each reboot? also at the time of reboot are you leaving wifi on or off? i got it to work but i think i'll have to keep wiping at every reboot. also since we are on miui...i don't have a camera app anywhere (using stock miui.us)..what is everyone using as their camera app for miui?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GFam4:
Yes if you reboot your phone you will have to do the 3x wipe of dalvik cache again. I usually just leave my phone on all the time. I've been doing this with Wifi Off dunno if it makes any difference if ON or OFF. As far as camera, i have both CM7 & MIUI cam. Check the other Roms out there. Im on Stormageddon 2.1.20 and he has both cameras and Wifi Calling. Some MIUI roms leave out the Wifi Calling because of the issues.

Hope This Helps.:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
I returned my ZAGG within the 45 day period to get this thinking it would not have the orange peel (which it doesn't) and thought the anti fingerprint would be nice but this thing shows all fingerprints! And when you do get smudges.. Which is all the time.. It's nearly impossible to get them off! It just spreads the oil/fingerprints around..

So disappointed!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brian85:
Yep, I took mine off about 30 minutes after putting it on. Hate it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
i am getting some screen protectors from diztronics. i hope they are the same as i got with my tpu. awesome dry screen protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
They don't have the same guarantee that ZAGG does do they?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
probably not. but they're not as expensive either. nor are you paying for advertising. could be the same thing. never know these days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
go look around this forum. there are dozens of people, including myself with those skins. there is no orange peal and they do help with fingerprints.

you got a bad skin, or you got scammed because honestly, there are dozens of people here with this skin and no issues. including myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
With the ZAGG??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
I actually paid less for my ZAGG... I used their promo code
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
lol. you paid less for a screen protector thrown in with a tpu? :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
No... Ordered it directly from ZAGG.. I paid 13 bucks for it.. My sgp was 13.99
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
i paid less for the tpu.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Lol dude you're totally confusing me... When I said I paid less I was referring to the screen protectors.. Not sure how tpu cases got thrown in..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
lol. i was just saying that diztronics screen protector is pretty good and it's a freebie with their tpu's. i ordered some more screen protectors for my nexus from them. i'm not a big fan of those phone shields. would rather run naked if i was going to do that and kind of feel ripped off for the price of them. tpu's, imo, off better protection, but i can see the value of a phone shield though. to each their own. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
Try these if you're interested.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/160692001155?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Make sure to use the make an offer and offer like $2.

I've used Zagg and hated the orange peel/rubbery texture. It was really good for finger prints though.

These have far less orange peel and less rubbery. I've tried several others and found this one to be the best compromise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Are these wet or dry??

I have a diztronic that I totally forgot about... Might try it... But I was thinking about returning that case since I don't like/use it..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Snakehn:
I got the InvisibleShield about a week ago and did a PERFECT install but for some reason the darn thing kinda moves around a bit, i noticed today that the bottom part was a bit upwards and i could easily move it back down with my finger, what the heck?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Do the warranty replacement..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Where did you see the offer button? I went to purchase the full body and I only see a buy it now selection for that and just the screen protector..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:

That's what I see on the page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jekyoo_style:
Why does everyone expect a screen protector to be the savior of common problems of a screen? If you're getting a crystal clear dry application screen protector, expect it to attract fingerprints regardless if it's oleophobic. The only way around this is to get an anti-glare/anti-fingerprint screen. Yes there is a trade off but it goes both ways.

Crystal clear - keeps the quality of the screen but smudges and attracts fingerprints like crazy.

Anti-glare - gives you a grainy display but gets rid of the fingerprints.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
I'm not by any means asking a savior of any kind... But when they say it's anti fingerprint then I at least expect it to be some what anti fingerprint..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Should have looked at the website first before the app :-) thanks.. Btw they accepted 9 for the full body..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j c m:
I have the SGP oleophobic installed on my GNex and love it. I can't tell it is there and I never see any finger prints. I'm not sure why other folks don't like it, but I love it :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
lol. kind of like how things are labeled water resistant and people expect water proof. or boots labeled puncture resistant and our companies call it puncture proof. or sweat resistant turns into rain proof. or the one size fits all dilemma but it doesn't fit around your ankles because you make hippos looks skinny. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] knockoutking:
+1

going from the one i got with my g-nexus case to the oleophobic = huge difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
+1 for the diztronics screen protector that came with my TPU case. It doesn't extend to the edges, but if it did, the TPU case would probably lift it off...

The case and screen protector are great. For under $10 shipped, this was a steal!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
The ones that like diztronic.. Have you used the oleophobic?

I think I'd be willing to rip this one off if you guys have experience with both..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
i've used oleophobic screen protectors. it's just my personal opinion that diztronics are the best ONES for the nexus that i know of comparing to all the others i've tried. mostly cheap hk ones, but most of those were pretty decent. this one is sticking real well, stick looks new after a month, and i usually swap every 6-10 weeks. this one might go the distance. and i like just a little bit of fingerprint goo on it. givesjust the right tactile feel swiping and tapping screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webninja:
I just got the spg oleophobic, and I wish there wasn't such a big gap around it, but other than that it is pretty good. I can't see that it distorts the screen in any way, and the install took about 30 seconds. It feels about 10% more resistant than the glass screen, but in no way as rubbery as a Zagg (for example). I could do with 2mm more around the edges, but for $13 for 2 I'm happy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trixnrice:
i agree with op. the sgp oleophobic simply just smears the fingerprints and produces a distorted rainbow effect when screen is on. not worth it imo. However it does provide protection, and with simple cloth wiping, the smudges go away easily, bu who wants to wipe their phone every 5 minutes. the oleophobic coating on the glass screen itself is awesome, but i need some protection reassurance other than "fortified glass" to naked, so sgp it is for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donovanc.williams:
Agreed, it is a steal and that case is great! The screen protector that came with the rev3 covered pretty close to all edges but did come up a little on the bottom, I used it for a about a week and can confirm that its okay, definitely not high quality but hey it was free and works. I had to get rid of it because the fingerprints/smears were really, really terrible on the thing.

Just ordered some, didn't accept anything under $3.00 for me but hey, for $3.00 I'll take the gamble. Will post pics when I get them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Celeras:
+1, sounds like the OP needs to lay off the fried chicken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
Haha! Although fried chicken is delicious I try to stay away from crap foods like that!

I've put on the diztronic sp and I feel like it does a better job than the sgp at preventing fingerprints.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peglegrook:
I recently started using the Wrapsol screen protector. I'm very happy with it so far. Dry apply, edge to edge, no orange peel, and seems to do okay on finger prints (still not as good as the stock glass though).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jordo_99:
I've used Diztronic, SGP Oleophobic, XO Skins:

I think the Oleophobic is slightly better than the Diztronic but that's because I don't mind wiping off the screen every now as then.

The way I look at it, the Oleophobic has a coating that repels fingerprint oils...Along that reasoning, fingerprints show up more noticeably because they don't "soak into the screen" (not really what I think is happening but it works for descriptive purposes).

However, the trade-off is that fingerprints need only the wipe of a cloth (anything will do) to clear up...other protectors don't show up as fast/noticeably but can be much harder to clean up. Every other similar protector (plastic and clear) needed either a lot more wiping or some kind of liquid to be involved or else the screen would start to get a "smudged" look to it. It was almost unnoticeable with the screen on but it annoyed the hell out of me when I saw a smudged up screen with it off.

If you like rubbery protectors the XO Skins is the best out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I need some help guys, I sorta butchered my oleophobic screen by lifting it up I guess one to many times and as indicated by the red circles those spots wont stick anymore other wise the screen would look perfect on my phone.

Is there anyway I can make those spots stick again? I can live with those spots looking the way they are since its not on the actual screen but if I could fix them then I would give it a try to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Powell730:
I've done that before... I used some water to make it stick again but if I remember correctly it didn't work very long
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lookitzjohnny:
the spots you highlighted, do they have dirt or lint underneath?

take 2 pieces of clear tape tap 1 sticky side down to lift the screen protector near the area you need to remove the dust (lift slightly, dont take the whole screen protector off). then take the other piece of tape(sticky side up) and put it underneath the SP and take out the dust.

thats how i re-install all my screen protectors, works wonders.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
I will give that a try see how it goes.

I am familiar with the process thats what I did to get the screen to look as good as it does now. Although, under further inspection I believe it is a scratch on the sticky side of the screen (probably got there from picking it off to much). I'm pretty sure there is no more dirt underneath my screen protector
[HTC Sensation] carhigh:
My daughter wants the sensation xe. Where can i get it at a good price in the US with a warrenty. Reason i ask is, saw it on amazon without warrenty. Thats not quite good
[HTC Sensation] creepinm3:
I would just buy a regular sensation, toss the xe back on and run xe stock rom. Lol I sure as hell did
[HTC Sensation] jasminthoria:
Just buy sensation its the same phone with all same hardware.
[HTC Sensation] speedyjay:
Except the normal sensation has a 1.2ghz dual core processor and the XE has a 1.5ghz dual core processor....
[HTC Sensation] gamezone94:
But it's the same processor, just another software/ kernel. If you wouldn't root/flash it buying the XE is okey.
[HTC Sensation] speedyjay:
Yeah that's true :) but apart from the processor and beats etc....the phones are identical :)
[HTC Sensation] carhigh:
I tried but my daughter is just nuts when she wants something. I ordered from negri. Now to bad though, she gave us 200 and ill sell her infuse for more recoup
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
why cant our phones operate without a battery and jus usb plugged in? at first i thought it wasnt enough power but i just tried to do a battery pull with the usb in and the phone is still on.

I attached a picture
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
I am totally missing something. You're asking why our phones wont work with only a charger plugged in or a usb > computer cord and no battery but then post a pic of your phone working in just that configuration. Sounds like you answered yourself to me.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Try to do it yourself, it wont work. I was running Faceniff and it froze, but my phone was still responsive. I could press the home button and all that and it work. When faceniff froze it let it work somehow.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
It could have to do with the fact that the battery is 3.7V and the charger/USB are 5V. The charger must be higher in order for it to work, but there are likely curcuits that need to run at a lower voltage (3.7V). Another reason might have to do with the fact that there are 4 terminals on the battery connector and when removed, makes a break in a circuit. This could possibly be overcome by jumpering some of the battery terminals, but you would probably want schematics before attempting this and I don't think Moto is going to give those out.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
That all make sense. I just dont understand why my phone would still stay on because FaceNiff froze. I dont think i could repeat it but it was one of them rare things that made me wonder why this isn't just allowed by default if the phone is capable. I know that function would not have many uses but there are times when i had to order a new battery and wanted to use my phone but couldnt. this was manily jus curiosity thread to learn why this would work then anyting important aha
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
I understand. When I mentioned the battery terminal jumper to complete the circuit, I was thinking about how you can start a manual transmission car with a dead battery just by pushing it and letting the clutch out. This turns the engine and the alternator which produces the electrical power needed to start. In theory this could work in a manual car without a battery at all, but now that I think about it you can't power this phone on even while plugged in until the battery reaches at least 5% charge. So I'm really thinking it requires the 3.7V to operate correctly.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Oh i see, that would show why it wouldnt start. Yay half that question is now answered aha. Now i just wonder why it still operated when the battery was pulled. but if you normally pull a batter, it doesnt still work.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
That lower voltage may only be required at startup, as in during boot up it does a self check to verify that voltage is present and than can continue to run at a higher voltage. In any circuit there has to be a voltage tolerance, so perhaps it is a software check that requires the 3.7V at startup.
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
It is possibly to run it without a battery installed, but not with the cable we're given. Team Black Hat sells developer cables that have something fancy going on which allows the phone to run without a battery installed.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
Yes but even if you do a battpull when already booted up the phone turns off...

To the poster above. Thats pretty cool. I neven knew that :] ima check out the diffrences between the cables. Good look.
[Motorola Droid 3] TBBle:
However, I believe that's a "firmware" off state, not a completely powered-off state, because a battery pull after a bad recovery flash won't work if the USB cable's still plugged in. Or at least it wouldn't for me. It looked like it was off, but was still sufficiently "on" that it didn't restore the boot loader when I put the battery back in and booted back up.

It took me three tries before I twigged to the problem, and I was starting to worry that I'd managed to brick it somehow.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
just try it. the next person to comment. its not firmware off state, the phone goes completely off lol

In what does overclock depends?, I've overclocked my X10 at 1.1 GHZ, but I've seen people on this forum that run theirs at 1.2, mine starts a bootloop with those frequencies, Why? Why does this happen if they are all the same device?...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoxx3m:
Same devices,but some chips have better OC potential than others,like CPUs on PCs.:)

Sent from my xperia "z10i" :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eh_hk:
The CPU just unstable with it operate at such high frequency.

You have two options

a)Set it at lower frequency

b)Tune up the voltage of CPU at that frequency

(!It may damage your phone,read every words in the program and make sure you know what you are doing!)

I run my phone at 1.2ghz but I don't see the difference since Sony Ericsson cheaped out with a shtty small ram
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynkamat:
My advise is not to overclock it. You can show off in front of your friends. But why risk your x10. Many x10 have capacity to go till 1.2GHZ.

They have some 2010 versions while some are 2011.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trojan92:
its not that big a risk, overclocking it makes a big difference, I run mine at 1.2ghz and there's an increase in performance in everything I do.

pages load faster, games run much better, videos/music play better and faster.

its not showing of to make your hardware faster.
