[Motorola Droid RAZR] gdmuscle:
I'm with you

Hey there, ok now this is a great looking phone I wish Motorola had gone a bit further and perfected the software before releasing this phone. This is the third phone I got that is either defective or the OS has some serious issues. I'm with Rogers and trying to get some kind of resolve with these people is like hitting yourself over the head with a brick. My first phone had random reboot issues, the second just totally bricked out on me nothing worked it just died. This third one not sure if it's software but it totally powered down and rebooted in my hand after pushing the sleep/wake button. The third only did this reboot thing once and I hope that is the only time it's going to do it. The only app I have installed is the Wifi transfer, Pulse, Facebook, Skype. I really would hope that none of these apps is the culprit.

I did get somekind of deal going with Rogers but I will have to buy the Samsung Galaxy S II LTE for $149, they waved some fees and also granted me a one time upgrade deal. I really wish Bell wasn't such a greedy SOB that Rogers should of carried the Nexus but Bell wanted exclusive rights to it, reminds me of Apple and AT&T.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] opensourcefan:
You gotta use caution on ditching a device due to software issues. More important to keep the quality device and be patient and let the software catch up. In the end, an unlocked bootloader won't matter I'd the device doesn't stand up. I think the RAZR wins if you look at it this way. If you're in for the short term though the Nexus will give more play time until the next cool device is announced next week at CES.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gdmuscle:
Well, I just called Rogers and they are now shipping me a New Samsung Galaxy SII LTE. They told me I can keep my Razr, but now I have two phones, the Razr strangly didn't reboot since then not sure maybe it was an app that was causing the reboots. But how do you use two sim cards on the same number and two phones, hmm...maybe I have to get another service or maybe sell the Razr or something. I'm kind of bummed out because Bell wanted exclusive rights to the Nexus here in Canada so they made Rogers pull all their pre orders before the Holidays. So now I'm stuck in a three year contract so I'm at a loss if they come up with some new devices at 2012 CES, but then we'd still have to wait about a year anyways with Rogers.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gdmuscle:
Well I gave it another shot, and just today my Razr did the standby death sleep. It just turned it self off after hearing a beep and then vibration it turned itself off for some strange reason. There was no smart action for this but something is causing this strange behaviour. That's it I give up, I think I'll be selling this phone or something maybe I'll customize the hell out of it or something since maybe it could be software related. It's a Rogers XT910 GSM by the way.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yyhd:
Engadget just posted an article saying Rogers will get the GNex on January 13th. :]
[Motorola Droid RAZR] opensourcefan:
My Rogers guy stated the 10th, either way they're getting it soon.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gdmuscle:
Great, now hear the news should of done some reading but they didn't want to extend the offer pass 48 hours so I needed to choose a phone and buy it. The nexus is a nice phone, damnit now I have to wait another 2 years or so. Unless I stop buying stuff and drop like $699 for it on the spot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darwichee:
Hi,

I've looked around, but noone had same problem as me.

I have Titanium Backup, and i did a backup on my 34 apps to my externals SD. Today i installed new ROM so i wanted to restore these apps, but titanium can't do this.

This is how i do:

1. I went in to Preferences --> restoration settings --> "Restore backups to..." and there is choosed "external media".

2. I went back to first screen --> batch---> restore , but there's no apps there at all.

Please help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deeco7:
Sounds like you didn't backup your SD card which contains the Titanium backups you have made before installing the new rom. Your new ROM may have formatted your SD card, am I correct?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darwichee:
No, all the files are at the SD card, i made a map called "titanium backup" where i placed all the backups, and they're still there. But titanium wont restore these.

Pretty lame, i bought the pro version for the "single click" function, meaning restore everything in single click, but it's useless if i can't save these to SD card.

Edit: I tried move the entire folder to internal SD, but same, titanium wont recognize anything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deeco7:
Oh ok, try checking the file sizes of the backup and let me know.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s1m4an:
Check TB preferences for backup location, and scan the entire device it should locate the folder with your backups.

And from then on that will be your backup folder.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darwichee:
Thanks i managed to solve this now, and now TB can find those apps, but when i press begin and it begins to restoring, nothing happens, it stuck at 0%, does this happend to you to when you use your external SD to restore?

I've tried 3 times now, and it allways stuck at 0%.

Edit: i moved the folder to Phones internal memory, but same, it wont load my backups.

What could be the problem?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blacksec:
I had this problem once too.

copy the folder with the TB backups to our PC and formate the sd card. additionally I reinstalled the whole rom too. And after that try again. It worked for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darwichee:
Ok, i installed a new ROM today anyway, and i formated my external SD too. Is it enogh to format it in phone settings, or i need to do it in PC, or it doesn't matter?

I get back if i still have the same problem again,

thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blacksec:
for me it worked with the recovery formatting tool.

[HD2 General] Sidz4u:
I am planning to buy myself a new HTC HD2, for i m bored of my three months old Moto Defy :D

When going to buy a Defy, we need to keep in mind whether the device has Green lens or Red Lens. (for the two have different modules(SOC & Bayer resp.))

So what i wanna know is that when i buy my HD2, is there any such demarcation that i need to take care of?

I had read somewhere abt two version namely 512 rom & 1024 rom.

Thanks in advance.

Hope a quick help from my fellow mates.
[HD2 General] AthenaLod:
there are two types of HD2's:

1) TMOUS: The US model distributed by T-Mobile. It has an internal memory of 1GB and has red and green buttons and T-Mobile written on top.

2) Non-US model: has 512MB of internal memory and has white buttons.

Not much of a difference, but you need to know which one is yours if you flash ROMs
[HD2 General] Sidz4u:
Thanks for the quick response.

I m from INDIA, so i guess i'll be getting the 512 version.

Also cud u tell me can we install Android and Winmo both in the NAND flash (not as SD file system image) ?

Also is the phone capable of a tripple boot? (android+WM6.5+ubuntu)
[HD2 General] GhostKlart:
can triple boot, but android and ubuntu must be sd-card builds

but telling the truth u just install the MAGLDR for good, as winmo is for nothing nowdays and keeping ur nand with this operating system is a bad idea)

and BTW:

just buy urself a normal android based device, not an hd2, as there quite a lot of problems to non-android base realted
[HD2 General] Sidz4u:
Omg! And what are those problems mate ?

Btw, i already own an android (moto defy).

Its just that i wanted to have the htc and winmo experience.

Also thanks to the locked bootloader of my moto defy, it is impossible to be bricked, but the scene doesn't seem so with HD2.

Are there cases where HD2 has been bricked permanently ?

Can't we flash the stock SBFs in HD2 using RSDLite ?
[HD2 General] GhostKlart:
Last two things a mysterious for me

Android native device I mean, at the moment its quite stupid to spend money on it as there is a great number of other devices much faster stronger and which doesn't have any trouble with android

bought this at local dealer for $75 (yes $75, VERY EXPENSIVE!)

this is a Team Memory microSDHC Card, 32GB of Storage(29,8 formatted) and supposed to be class 10 . (10MB/s write speed)

but, i found it is different :(

surprisingly, it is 12MB/s in writing and 20MB/s in reading. fast? yeah.. i think..

comes with a mini microSD card reader (USB 2.0)

here is the link for the site

*sorry for my bad English*
[HTC EVO 3D] gigaboss:
Class 10 means that the writing speed must be a least 10 MB/s, so nothing surprising if it's higher.
[HTC EVO 3D] ryanadiputra:
well, it is better than my older microSD card which claims to be a class 10 card, and writes at 6MB/s :(
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
What app are you using to confirm the write speed?
[HTC EVO 3D] ryanadiputra:
SD Tools , it is in the market
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
Thanks. I can't believe there are people giving that app a low score because they don't know its purpose.
[HTC EVO 3D] aaronagis:
Thanks, its good to know what cards are backing their claims,

Yours seems comparable to the "TOPRAM" 32gb class 10 I have been using, they run around $60 on amazon & ebay, and I got just about the same scores using it, and its been very reliable.
[HTC EVO 3D] ryanadiputra:
well, here in my country, it is quite a rarity to find a eBay/Amazon seller who ships directly to Indonesia. the $15 price is quite worth the shipping cost, LOL :)

Team Memory lineups is quite good i think, there are many good local reviews :)

where do you buy it?

ente beli dimana gan?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rohiitian:
I've synced my phone using Touchdown to access my corporate mail. However I'm unable to download attachments. I get a message stating that server policy does not allow for attachment download without an SD card (which the Nexus obviously doesn't have). This seems to be the server policy set by my company. Is there anyway I can bypass this/fool the app into thinking I have an SD card? Or any other workaround?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chirea.mircea:
Tell your company to alter that policy. Assuming a phone has an SD card is stupid and wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tonyipad2:
Have u tried using via Otg cable ? Idk just a thought :p hope it will work. Good luck bud
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rohiitian:
OTG is an interesting idea =) but won't suit my purpose. I literally need mail (and my attachments) on-the-go, and not while tethered to any other device.

My company is not going to change the policy, not easily at least, we've tried. Is there no other way around this? =/

Insert SD card and reader into OTG cable; insert OTG cable into phone; tape any hanging parts to the back of your phone; ... ; profit?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Sounds like a problem with Touchdown to be honest. The phone sees the partitioned space as an emulated SD card. Touchdown just isn't pointing to the correct area which is a problem with the app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dawynkoop:
+1 I was actually about to type the same thing. Touchdown must be looking in the wrong place because even though the phone doesn't have an ACTUAL SD Card it emulates one that most apps can use without an issue.

Have you tried setting up the email account using the stock app rather than Touchdown? If it works in the stock app then it's definitely an issue with touchdown, if not then you may need to have your IT department remove the "Require SD Card" restriction in Exchange, a very simple fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
Speaking on behalf of the second part of this post, if you avoided using the basic email app due to Exchange security there are a couple .zips out there that are supposed to fix that.

Also, yes they should disable the "Require SD Card" restriction as it makes no sense in terms of security (Other than the SD Card can be removed easily without the user knowing and someone getting all of your attachments, but I guess this is a little backwards :p)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
very interesting issue

good thing it's only limited to the App in question

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neok44:
as it's been pointed out. it's an issue with the app and not understanding the emulated SD card of honeycomb and ICS. email them and hopefully they'll fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CraigP17:
I have same issue. Its Touchdown's issue.

Edit: I just tried for fun and downloaded an attached PDF thru my work email on touchdown and it worked fine. I do recall not being able to on previous attempt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
i just downloaded a large excel spreadsheet to the sdcard using touchdown. no issues here.

Why don't you head over to Touchdown support group to get the latest beta with GN fixes or report it there to the developer.
[LG Optimus 2x] LilProphet:
Unfortunately since I installed GB stock rom my GPS apps don't find satellites at all. Anybody knows a fiy for this? it worked perfectly on froyo.
[LG Optimus 2x] eistmxcxc:
For me "GPS status" (market) helps in these situations (topogigi says the following in the FAQ of his thread, but it should work for you as well):

"If you want a quick fix, you have to sit down in an open space with a large slice of visible sky above you. You should have already installed on your phone a really valuable app called "GPS Status". You haven't got it? Fire up the Market, search it and install it: it's free for everyone. Then turn off wifi and turn on wireless data. Ephemeris data download and position data based on cell triangulation are available only with wireless data enabled and they are inhibited by a special setting in the gps configuration file when wifi is on. Tap the app icon, then look at the status bar: is there a small icon radar-shaped blinking on the status bar (upper part of the screen)?

CASE 1) Yes, I see it! It's blinking continuously!

CASE 2) No, nothing changed.

If your fall in CASE 2, there is really something wrong with GPS on your phone. You can try the following workaround, but if it doesn't work there's no remedy other than filing a bug alert in the thread and patiently wait until the bug will be solved.

WORKAROUND:

- Enter Hidden menu typing 1809#*990# on the phone pad

- Select "GPS Test"

- Go to "SULP Settings" and create a new SLP Server with the following parameters:

name: Nokia

slp address: supl.nokia.com

port: 7275

leave certification file and TLS settings as blank

- go back, and flag "SLP Auto provision" as enabled

- select your APN for SLP from "APN Settings"

- go back 2 times and select "Get position"

- select menu-> start

- at this point, you could notice that no satellite appear. Dont't worry, carry on....

- select menu-> Settings then change some parameters as "Session Type" and "Oper Mode"

- go back and select Stop and Start again

- repeat the last three steps until you get a fix and the gps icon in the status bar remains steady after the fix.

If you fall into CASE 1), look at the yellow bars indicating the number and the signal level of each satellite. When the bars will be more than 4 and the length of each bar will be enough to get a fix (the longer the bars, the stronger the signal), the bars will turn into green and you have got the first fix (how lucky you are, huh?). The time it will take is not fixed, though: it depends on weather, correct download of ephemeris data, radio interferences and so on. So, the bottom line is: BE PATIENT! There is no rule of thumb for measuring the time a fix will take. In some conditions, you will get it in a few seconds, in other conditions it will take minutes. Now that you've got a fix, try to move a little bit around. The radar-shaped icon should be steady now and the bars should remain green. If you see the icon disappearing after the fix, you are falling into CASE 2). Try the workaround mentioned before and if it fails, file a complaint into the thread.

DO NOT FILE A BUG ALERT ON GPS WITHOUT HAVING ALREADY TRIED ALL THE PROCEDURES LISTED ABOVE! It will be simply ignored."

Your device is rooted? Then you could try this with CWM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1066933
[LG Optimus 2x] afteron:
Ive had this problem too, on Stock GB ROM.

what I did was installed the 2.1.6 MIUI ROM and edited the GPS settings from there.

The settings I copied was from a Nexus ONE MIUI ROM.

Now it works like a dream. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] LilProphet:
Thanks for the answers I'll try gps status
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
And no surprise I have got this issue to, since I updated the stock rom (oh joy, thank you so much LG). However, it would get a lock, then drop the lock (within seconds) then search again for a few minutes.. get a lock maybe.. then drop it within seconds.

Now today in the open air, I cannot get a lock.

So.. I downloaded "GPS Status & Toolbox" and because I cannot stand adverts.. I donated the small amount for the program patch to remove adverts ('GPS Status Donation').

I'm now just running this on my phone (but by a window.. to try and get a lock).

Hopefully I can get it working :-)

Many thanks for the tip, I'll let you know either way :-)#

EDIT: Well... it seems I may have been hasty, as I just turned off the wifi and I think that was stopping the GPS from working lol. But anyway.. is there a hack to get the wifi and GPS working together?
[LG Optimus 2x] rktdi:
hi

I had the same problems as you, with GPS (and some other) issues - I have always been on stock Rom.

then I got fed up with this and decided to try Temasaks Cyanogenmod7 Kang ROM last week - and have not looked back since!

GPS is working within seconds, new cool lock screen, and everything is running much more fluently! Other problems I had are also gone.

battery time is equal or better, as stock!

/René
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
Well... I don't know what I've done... some fiddling with the GPS options in the hidden menu, and now it is working flawlessly.

Also... I'm on the google supl, and not the nokia one... and it still works fine.

I have made some other changes anyway.. but regardless it basically just seem to take some fiddling with it to get it to work. I now get locks within about 5 to 10 secs even indoors (10 sats seen, 6-8 locked INDOORS!). Hopefully that won't change if I reset the phone.

My settings are:

GPS session type: 'Tracking' (not single fix)

Oper Mode: MS-Based (to help with initial lock, but then use GPS completely)

Horizontal Accuracy: 30 (Stock was 50.. I think this is in metres)

SLP Auto Provision: Enabled (I don't even know what this means!!? lol)

SLP Server Setting: OPEN(Google) (Although I added the nokia one as well)

Auto Cold Start: Disabled

UPDATE: You know what... I thought it was working... so I reset my device with GPS off. When it came on, I tested GPS, and it showed that it was working and see's the satellites. BUT.. in GPS Status Tool, I see that the GPS symbol dissappears, and the 'update' time does not update. So basically.. it's relying on the cell towers rather than the GPS towers. I turned the phone off with GPS enabled... turned on again, and now it's working correctly with GPS doing it's thang. AFter my experiences in being in an office with a terrible signal... I reckon that there is a setting in the code somewhere that doesn't allow the GPS to be used, or it's forcing it to only use tower's and wifi as a means of location, and ignoring the GPS. Very odd. But it works now, as everyone has seen, it's just a shame that what really is quite a fundamental feature of the phone, LG decided not to fix.
[LG Optimus 2x] luka2858:
It works,thanks. It is wery cloudy but i got gps in 15sec
[LG Optimus 2x] sigelopisan:
try this too,

turn on your GPS.

reboot your phone (with GPS ON)

try again. see if it can lock faster.
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
That's what I suggested in the update. It's obviously a flaw in the code (thanks LG) that you have to turn the phone on with the GPS enabled for it to work. Now major issue really to leave it enabled anyway, hardly takes any power when not in use, I just wish I knew why this was the case, that you have to have it enabled at power on time. Bizarre.

It's not about being able to 'get a lock', it's about it working at all. If you use GPS status, you will see that it can see satellites and attempt to get your position.. but I reckon what it thinks are sat's are actually the cell towers (When you haven't enabled GPS at boot time).
