[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
Anyone having a problem with the sound going out on there phone? I have Val final with kj6 theme from racing.

This morning I woke up and didn't have sound out of my speaker. Even though I heard the alarm. I rebooted and it was fine. Then it did it again. I fixed permissions and all was good then it did it again but this time it was just hooked up to the aux jack working. Since I didn't have sound out of the speaker I put it back on the aux Jack and I had nothing. I hit the lock screen gave it a few seconds and it came back. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
Try reflashjng with full data/cache/dalvik wipe and see iif that helps I have never had that problem but I alwats wipe everything. Make sure u backup ur data with titanium backup or whatever u use
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goddi2010:
I do that before and after I flash a ROM. I've now flashed 3 different roms with the same problem. I'm thinking its either a hardware problem or I need to Odin a ROM and start fresh. I've only been using cwm at the moment since I can't get my laptop to see my phone.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Steria:
I recently got my SGS2 GT-i9100, and I wonder about all the things the different apps want to hava access to... Either they are simple games or apps...

Your location

Coarse (network-based) location, fine (GPS) location

Network Communication

Full Internet access

Phone Calls

Read phone status and ID

Storage

Modify/delete USA storage contents

...and many more I have not yet familiarized with.

I'm just thinking about whether allowing some apps to have access to all of these things can be harmful in any way, or if I should be concerned in any way. F. ex why should Fruit Ninja be allowed to read phone status and ID? ... I don't get it.

I need a clarification to exactly what all these permissions stand for and mean, what exactly they will have access to if I permit them, and whether to avoid some apps to have access to these, or if it is "safe". I hope you all understand my concerns.

//Steria
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] B3311:
No clarification needed really, the permissions mean exactly what they say. Should be obvious why some tools needs internet access, for example. Many apps on the market also have a description as to why they need certain permissions.

Use common sense. If it seems pointless for app x to access your phone, don't install it. Always useful to see reviews and check popularity on the market too.

Difficult to be more specific without knowing what apps you use (no idea what Fruit Ninja is..).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] m1keyb:
There's an article here which explains a bit http://techpp.com/2010/07/30/android-apps-permissions-secure-private-data/

I may be wrong but I think Fruit Ninja would need to read phone status so it can pause the game when you get an incoming call.
[Thunderbolt General] silver03wrx:
Hey everyone. Just switched from att galaxy s2 skyrocket to my wifes vzw shared plan she gave me her thunderbolt just rooted runing liquid rom. i must say very nice for a single core phone. I hope this forum is great and full of nice people As the one i just came from was. Ill be here to help with questions. People may have . And would love to join a dev team if there are any. Who could use another person. Easy as pie to root. Downgraded then did revolutionary. . I enjoy contributing to xda as much as possible. So just wanted to introduce myself to eveyone
[Thunderbolt General] donnyp1:
This is a great forum, i just came over a few weeks ago from the incredible. Welcome aboard! Feel free to ask me any questions you have, there are some great devs and roms here, im working my way thru them.
[Thunderbolt General] nowetdio:
Damn reading your recent posts at the skyrocket forums tells me that you hate everything about the Thunderbolt and LTE. Hopefully, that will change before you switch to a non single core phone. Nevertheless, welcome to our forums my good sir!!! :)
[Thunderbolt General] silver03wrx:
Well i wouldnt say hate. Like i said great single core phone its just not an easy adjustment. Going from a dual core galaxy s2 with 60mbps lte. To single core and 12mbps max download. Whats the deal wih that anyway. Does verizon limit the lte speed on the thunderbolt or what? But im likig it just getting used to it
[Thunderbolt General] silver03wrx:
Im just kinda pissed i had to sell my skyrocket still. But i got the thunderbolt free and its definately not bad at all for single core im still adjusting. But its starting to grow on me
[Thunderbolt General] gk325:
you are going to want to bang your head against a wall. I just switched from T-Bolt to Epic 4g Touch. I really wanted to throw the bolt against a brick wall instead of selling it. I feel sorry for you.

[Thunderbolt General] SevenSe7enSeven:
I used to get faster speeds when its lte was new. Att's lte will drop significantly within a year also.
[Thunderbolt General] l7777:
At least with Verizon you will have LTE coverage in most cities and won't drop to edge when you venture outside a major city. As another poster said, VZW's LTE is now starting to be used by the masses. Find an empty tower and you'll see pretty high speeds on Verizon too.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] washa_rednecks:
Hi, please, I have a problem with GPS on my Galaxy Mini with CM7 7.2.0 RC4.

If i enable my GPS and I'm using any SW which uses GPS (fe. google maps, c:geo, sport tracker etc...) after a few minutes GPS seems to be working (in taskbar is enabled, i can see an icon) but GPS isn't working. I can shut it down and power up again, but nothing happens. I have to restart Galaxy Mini.

It happens everytime, when I'm using GPS for more than a few minutes.

Does anybody know what I can try to solve it?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Václav
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] lackhoo:
try to reflash the your ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] galaxy mini:
Try to flash again with clean install means wipe everything! Rc4 shouldnt have any gps bug, it takes around 30sec on my mini to find his satelite and it works fine without losing connection!

Swyped from my GT-S5570L using xda premium
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] washa_rednecks:
Thanks for reply.

It's not about problem with the finding of satelites, it takes about 5-15s.

But after a few minutes GPS is jammed.

I just reflash ROM and tomorrow i will se what will happens.

Maybe second question: when i'm on clean install of CM7, i'm going to try AD2SDX script, but i don't know how to find, which format of ext i'm using (ext3 or ext4)... and with default script my Mini doesn't want to start, i'm going change ext in script and try it again...

someone can help me??

i have foxhound rom and franco kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
You could just Google "Google maps apk file" drop it on your sd card after downloading and check allow installing from unknown sources and run it on your phone.

Or get a GApps file in zip format and re flash in CWM.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nic85:
thanks,where i can find google maps in flashable zip?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
Just search on here dude. Some devs include it when they create a new rom so I would say check out the android developement section on here or just search here ;)

[HTC Titan] drupad2drupad:
Hi!

I received a marketplace update to Tango. I don't have the HTC one, it's the other version I think.

After the update two noticable things were:

1) Tango changed to Tango Video Calls

2) The sound quality was better and call dropping reduced.

I am using the same home wifi as before so nothing changed in terms of internet connectivity.

Please do let me know if you see something similar or better!
[HTC Titan] stevov:
what version is yours as i have the htc one and iirc updated a few days ago to version1.6.13248
[HTC Titan] BucDan:
I have the TangoMe version like OP. The verison is: 1.6.16642

Haven't tested it yet.
[HTC Titan] drupad2drupad:
Yes I have TangoMe too - updated version is 1.6.16642

The HTC one initially had issues with call connection etc, so never went back to that one.

i had curently bricked my vibrant what had happened is i went to try the new ics rom and it got stuck in a loop boot. so what i did was a master reset to see if it would help it didnt.. the next step i took was to put it back to stock via odin downloaded the recommended files then it got stuck on cashefs and would not go further.. after that i had currently lost access to download mode. i did purchase a jig and that will not get it into download mode either does anyone have any reccomendations me

thanks robert

ODIN should be able to recognize it like that.

Open ODIN up, find the PDA and .pit and connect the phone, see if the yellow COM light pops up.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I don't have a solution, but I think I know what a pretty big contributing factor is towards some people saying WiFi is on par with other devices, and others saying it is not.

I've seen this mentioned in another WiFi thread by another user, but hasn't really gotten much attention, so I figured it deserved its own thread so people see it.

It appears that for some reason, the Prime does not like wireless N networks unless it is extremely close to the router. For example, when using wireless N, my Prime will pull over 30 Mbps when within 5 feet of my router. However, as soon as I start walking away, the Prime drops in speed at an embarrassingly bad rate. It goes from about 30 Mbps down to 3 Mbps down at about 20 feet away from my router. My other devices (Galaxy Nexus, iPad1, laptop) do not exhibit this behavior.

However, if you're using a wireless G network instead, the dropoff isn't nearly as significant. For example, when using wireless G, I'll pull about 19 Mbps when directly near the router, and still get about 9-13 Mbps when 20 feet away from the router, which is somewhat on par with my other devices.

My conclusions:

1) The Prime does not work well with wireless N networks

2) People who see speeds consistent with their other devices when not near their routers likely do not have a wireless N router (or have wireless N disabled).

Does anyone have any opinion on whether this may be software related?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Im finding exactly that rubbish WiFi on the Prime as soon as I walk away from my N-series router.

There definitely is something wrong with the Primes WiFi with mine, could be firmware related.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Have you tried switching to G only mode to see if the Prime performs better? I know it may not be a permanent or acceptable solution, but that's what I'm doing for the time being, as I live in a relatively small apartment and don't need the increased range of wireless N.

The fact that the Prime can pull decent speeds at a decent range while on wireless G only has me hopeful that it is not hardware related, and can indeed be fixed (e.g., improved) with firmware.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
I only have N here, all other devices work good apart from the Prime.

I tried using WiFi Analyzer to see which channel was best being 11 as my router was set to auto but that made no difference on the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
If you want to try it out, most, if not all N routers allow you to disable N and only transmit on a, b, or g. That's what I did on my N router. I changed transmission from 802.11a/b/g/n to 802.11g only.

I concur that all other devices work great on N except for the Prime, which is annoying.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sdelliott31:
I have AT&T Uverse and there wireless router is b/g only. I get download speeds of 12mbps in my plan. I was getting 11.3 to 11.5 on my OG IPad and my TFP oh and my motorola Atrix at any place in my house or my decks. Same ranges. My router is in the middle of my home so I'm probably no more than 50-75 feet from it.

So, I feel there could be credibility to what the OP says based on my setup.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moothead2:
Thanks a lot for this post. My router is only G and B but I decided to test this myself so I changed my router from Mixed to G-only and it increased my speeds by over 3MB/s (5MB/s to 8.1MB/s) when downstairs in my living room. I thought my previous tests were strange when it would sometimes spike up to 8MB/s but finish on 5MB/s everytime.

Anyway, very useful post which could help many on here. Maybe this could be fixed in a firmware update or do you reckon the Wi-Fi recievers in the Prime are designed that way?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SamB12:
My Wirless N router works fine with the Prime at both short and long distances.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xzombiex66:
I agree mine work fine also, i have a cape cod style house and my N router is in my basement I get 2 bars of strength in the "attic" part of my house, running about 12-13mps. Even when i run Wifi Analyzer on both my Galaxy Nexus and my Prime they are both very much the same DB.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnh123:
I've got to say I think the Wi-Fi issues are software, not hardware. Using Wi-Fi analyzer, with my thunderbolt and prime in same location they have the same signal strength, but the thunderbolt is much faster downloading. I don't think the back is the problem with the prime WiFi, and they should be able to fix it with a firmware update.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Someone else also suggested that you can get better/higher wifi speeds with a lower channel. People have tried switching to channels 1 and 3. Maybe while trying ONLY 802.11g, try also using N at lower channels.

Lower channels = lower frequency = higher energy, which may be better able to get through the aluminum back and improve speeds?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary Key:
1. What channel are you using on the N band? Also, what router and firmware?

As for testing at this point I am pulling 36Mbps on N at 15 feet and 34Mbps on G (on a Netgear WNDR4500 or ASUS RT-N56U). We will look into this behavior shortly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
Many wifi problems stem from suboptimal router configuration. Mixed-mode use (as opposed to G-only or N-only) can also cause speed degradation.

Suggest some simple steps to troubleshoot slow wifi speed:

http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-basics/30664-5-ways-to-fix-slow-80211n-speed

Alternately, you can try a different router or access point, either as replacement or in tandem with the existing unit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Great idea making this thread as I was going to make similar one but never got around to after fiasco in other thread..lmfao.

There was this guy that posted he was going to return his Prime because his wifi wasn't acting right and he was slow downloads speeds and big dropoffs n such. I told him the exact same things you posted here. Be came back n thanked me n said That did the trick. Now his wifi is working great and is on par with his other devices. So now he is keeping his Prime.

Ill bet you that majority of people experiencing wifi issues are because of the reasons stated in this post. A simple network settings change can can make a night n day difference in wireless performance.

This thread should be stickied also or merged with other one then stickied. This will help alot of people out having wifi issues. And its such a simple n fast fix also.

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 PM ----------

this was said to be true also. I saw that thread that had same info in it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Gary,

Thank you very much for looking into this. I ran some additional tests so I could supply you with some (hopefully) helpful information.

The following tests were performed all using channel 1 on my router. Note that I do see faster speeds on my Prime on channel 1 with both G and N transmissions. The router is a D-Link DIR-655 with firmware version 1.35NA.

The WiFi version of my Prime is V6.1.1.17.

To get accurate speed results, I transferred a large file locally from my PC to my Prime and my Galaxy Nexus. I let each transfer go for a few minutes and noted the highest speed. Below are my results:

Wireless N Mode Only

Directly Next to Router

Galaxy Nexus: 28.1 Mbps

Transformer Prime: 29.84 Mbps

25 Feet Away From Router, 2 Thin Walls In Between

Galaxy Nexus: 20.48 Mbps

Transformer Prime: 6.68 Mbps

Wireless G Mode Only

Directly Next to Router

Galaxy Nexus: 17.8 Mbps

Transformer Prime: 22.04 Mbps

25 Feet Away From Router, 2 Thin Walls In Between

Galaxy Nexus: 14.4 Mbps

Transformer Prime: 10.32 Mbps

Two important things I noticed from these tests:

1) The Prime actually downloads faster than my Galaxy Nexus when right next to the router, but consistently downloads slower when further from the router.

2) Although the Prime drops off more than my Nexus at a distance of 25 feet from the router, it is at least in the same ballpark when the router is set to G only. However, when the router is set to N only, as you can see from the results, it's not even close.

Again, thank you very much for looking into this for all of us.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fella1:
I have a b and g router. changed it to g-only and tried changing the channel from 11 to 1 and 3. None of it helped. I use a Netgear WGT624 v3 router with firmware V2.0.10_1.0.1NA

I get a single strength reading between 3 and 4 bars mostly when sitting next to the router but when stepping away it drops to the 1 dot signal strength or none at all. I don't understand what happened in my case because up until yesterday I was getting excellent wi-fi performance no matter where I was in my house. I had my Prime for a week and it was working perfectly. Then yesterday the wi-fi strength just died out. I have requested a refund from Office Depot's website for it but I would love to be able to cancel the refund request and keep the Prime if I felt sure that this issue could get resolved. Office Depot will be picking my tablet up on the 19th. I'll keep an eye on the forums between now and then to see if anything changes or any other ideas pop up for things to try on my end.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dagrim1:
Actually did some tests myself today, comparing between the TF101, TF201 and the SGS2... All tests are done with wifi-analyzer and speedtest.

Linksys E2000 router, wifi g-only at channel 1

Close to router (bout 2.5m):

SGS2: ~-45dBm, ~13.5mbps

TF101: ~-40dBm, ~13.5mbps

TF201: ~-45dBm, ~13.5mpbs

Farther away, same room still (bout 8.5m)

SGS2: ~-45dBm, ~13.5mbps

TF101: ~-45dBm, ~13.5mbps

TF201: ~-50dBm, ~13.5mpbs

Kitchen (bout 11, wall and closes in between)

SGS2: ~-70dBm, ~7.5mbps

TF101: ~-65dBm, ~10mbps

TF201: ~-67dBm, ~5mpbs

Other room (about 6m, 2 walls in between)

SGS2: ~-65dBm, ~6mbps

TF101: ~-65dBm, ~10mbps

TF201: ~-70dBm, ~7mpbs

The signal is not that different actually, but speeds can be... THe problem is that within a number of runs in speedtest the changes can be pretty huge. Ranging from 2mbps to 10 mbps... No clue if it's my connection itself (got a 20mbit connection) or the router.

Also have another wifi router so might give that one a try too later...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tdrussell:
This is almost exactly the behavior i see. In my case it is even a little more extreme, as i actually get occasional wifi crashes (the wifi icon on the prime disappears, then reappears and reconnects after a few seconds) with my router set to GN or N only. Sitting next to the router, speeds on N only are very erratic, ranging from 6-12 Mbps. On G-only, i get a solid 10-12 Mbps.

Overall i find the speeds to be extremely slow. my other devices (G only Droid X included) have no problem handily besting the download speeds at any range.

TF201 | XDA Premium
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jptech:
part of the issue is, we don't know which chip the azurewave has for wifi.

Because the OS has drivers for both the 4330 and the 4329 installed in system.

check your etc for driver confs.

I one of the few userr who don't have any problems. wireless n does,'t work will on 2.4 even my laptop has pronlem trying to get n speeds they is why i went to 5 mhz to get full n speeds
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnh123:
You should download WiFi analyzer from the market so you can check signal strength on both devices.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
I wonder if Asus could fix this with a firmware update. At the moment this is another false advertised feature of having N-series WiFi when it doesn't work properly just like the GPS.

I'm getting exactly the same as more of the other users here are posting with their results of the Prime under performing compared to other devices that do have solid fast connections at any range.

I tested changing channels on my N-series router it made no difference on the Prime, my routers config already has an auto function to get the best channel anyway.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
I reported the same behavior prior to ICS and saw a major improvement from my Prime on wireless g as opposed to the combined b/g/n. My router is a Belkin N600 w/ dual bands, operating channels 9 and 153.

After ICS update, I changed it back to b/g/n and strictly n but got the same hindered performance away from the router that I experienced with HC. So now I'm sticking with 802.11g and it's going well for my Prime in my room.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
It just sounds like N-Series WiFi should be removed from the Primes spec as they have already done with GPS...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] micaman:
Just tested wifi on the TFP vs my HTC EVO3d. Prime wins on WIFI analyser and speed test. Good enough for me.
