Anyone notice that when you have the screen off and wifi on your downloads from the browser dont continue to download? I have the same issue with dropbox exporting as well. I have the wifi sleep policy to always on (never turn off) in the settings too. Any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] airslant:
I have noticed that also. It doesn't make sense to have the screen on the whole time you are downloading a large file though. I'm assuming the wifi never sleep setting is not working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
I have only noticed this with franco.Kernel when the Hotplug option is enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] XfrostX:
ah might be the issue, ill try with hotplug off
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
Did it work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spamlucal:
heavy power saving kicks in when the screen is off, so transfers pretty much drop dead. You'll have to keep the screen on when transferring large files
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
I wish there was a way to stop this from happening. Sometimes I transfer a bunch of music from my NAS over SMB. It takes a little time. It's a pain in the rear to keep touching the screen to make sure the transfer doesn't die. It seems like "Keep wifi on during sleep" policy should fix that but it doesn't. What exactly does that setting do if not that?

My guess is that maybe it would be nice if the file explorer apps had a setting to "Keep phone awake while transferring files". I'll have to start looking into that to see if I'm just missing that setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
I dont know why the wifi sleep policy setting doesnt work for some people. But mine does, wifi stays on with the screen off for hours. I often download large files and it works just fine leaving it idle with screen off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VipKSM:
sorry to hijack - slightly off topic but i lose signal when the screen is off

any thoughts on that also guys?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Me too. Noticed randomly that the WiFi started turning off when the screen was off, and it seems the sleep policy was changed automatically somehow... but I switched it back and I haven't had any issues since.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
Mine was set correctly. It appears changing it, exiting settings, then re-enabling it may have fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lh901121:
i also face 3g data off when screen is off issue :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MARVELMAZ:
Wifi Fixer by Zanshin-g1 once you download this app it will monitor your wifi real time and get rid of any connectivity issues when they are about to strike. I found it to be the perfect app to solve wifi issues. I hope it helps you aswell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
You could use an app like Tasker to set the display timeout to n hours if your file manager app is on the foreground. Add an exit task to reset it to default timeout if the file manager is no longer on the foreground.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcg611:
So 4 days in I had to get a replacement because of a screen glass issue, so I started playing before doing the 4.0.2 update that comes up right away. Found the camera actually focuses, lights up the green focus brackets, and takes really great pictures all from holding the camera button... on the old phone and the new after running the 4.0.2 update the camera doesn't focus and light up green brackets when holding the camera button. The touch to focus almost works but hard to get a good picture when you then have to still hit the camera button.?? Am I missing something or did the camera get worse with the update??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
Same here. I was scratching my head over it too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reuthermonkey:
the continuous auto-focus is already going. you don't need to hold down the camera button. The green brackets dont come up, but that doesnt mean it's not working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nxt:
Yeah, I hate the continuous focus, it's too slow. I wished it would force focus when you hold the shutter button, like the HTC Sensation with its zero lag shutter too.

Sent from Galaxy Nexus (GSM)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jleagle:
Mine does that..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zok-star:
:( noticed this too!! rather hold to focus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahsengah:
Yep me too, better yet just add both to the options and let the user pick! Dammit!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meeporox:
you can actually hold the camera button first, then touch the area you want to focus. It will capture the image automatically when you release the camera button. Found it easier this way to capture image
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
Yupe, you can do that, but it's cumbersome ... A lot of hold and click, and still the result is a hit and miss.

As I found out from previous similar discussion (and OP also mentioned), I bought Camera Zoom FX and it produced satisfied focused image.

Although, I lost super fast shutter ... but, I would rather have decent focused image result!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
Hold to focus is the bomb. Really miss it now that it's gone.

At least we can still click on the screen to steady the focus. It continues to focus too much. I like the simple camera app and don't see a difference after purchasing Camera Zoom FX. I hope they patch this up. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcg611:
Yeah its crazy they changed it, it was simple and it worked! Was like every other point and shoot, it focused great- I took some amazing low light pictures on 4.0.1 before doing the update. That's why everyone says the camera sucks on this phone and they probably lost sales of 100,000 units because everyone thinks the cam sucks! Can you adb push the 4.0.1 camera or is this resolved in 4.0.3?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
I'm not sure if it's something controlled by the ROM or actual app. Maybe I'll try checking a backup from 4.0.1 and see if there is a discernible difference. I'd like the hold to focus back as well.

Anyone with 4.0.3 who can confirm if this has been fixed or not? I'm also wondering if it's an intended design... I wouldn't know why they'd change it, but maybe there's some hairbrain reason.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
this is one reason why i wont upgrade from 4.0.1. the focus works great when you just hold the circle button, it focuses on center with green brackets, and this produces stellar pic quality.

but when you touch to focus on the screen, this is where everybody gets such poor image quality. that's why some people swear this camera sucks, while others say its great. because these 2 methods produce different quality images.

i dont know why google removed this function in 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sblantipodi:
the camera sucks with both focus methods.

low light equals to out of focus images.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reuthermonkey:
4.0.3 is the same as 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bongd:
Thank you!

Does anyone have a deodexed 4.0.1 camera.apk that they could share?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcg611:
+1!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
i'm not so sure. that's what i'm saying, in total darkness i can get rid of the fuzzy focus just using the circle button. the pics actually come out just as sharp. only on 4.0.1.

something is up with this camera software, cause i think the actual hardware sensor isn't all that bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcg611:
+1.. took amazingly detailed photos in pure darkness and low light with 4.0.1.. low shutter lag is worthless if has zero focus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NIK516:
4.0.2 is laggy and the camera is slow and inaccurate to focus. Not the best update. However it does fix the signal issues people like me were having.

I'm hoping 4.0.3 will be a merge of speed and signal.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem, or maybe just the screen protector. Sometimes the area triggered isn't the one I touched. So if I touch the bottom of the screen, it will be recorded as the middle of the screen. Very annoying. This doesn't happen all the time, but it does happen often. It will go away if I just quit the current application.

Is anybody else experiencing this problem?
[General Questions and Answers] xiltepin:
I have a rooted unlocked droid razr.

My carrier (Softbank) does not allow me to used unlocked cellphones so that I had to set the apn settings from my carrier AND push a customized mms application into system/app using root explorer.

I think the customized mms.apk is from Galaxy S2.

Now I can send and receive sms/mms but every time a receive a message i receive a duplicate. I assume it is because I have 2 applications in the phone.

I looked into system/app folder and I have only one mms.apk file which is the one I pushed, the name of that app is "messaging". I assume I have to erase the application that came originally with the phone which is the "sms/mms" app.

Anyone who could help me?

Thanks is advance.

Did you delete the one you placed in the system/app dir? Apparently not doing that can cause this issue

Secure?

Just wanna know how secure this is for FB users?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adiktz:
This is as secure as facebook itself is...!!! You provide your login credentials to facebook directly when you log in to the application...!!! It does not store your username or password anywhere, not even locally on the phone...!!! No data is collected by me, not even logs...!!! When you login, facebook generates a access token which is stored locally and used to communicate to facebook...!!! Again, I don't collect it...!!!

It's as secure as your official facebook application or the browser when you open mobile facebook site on your phone...!!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dr154:
Love to use this but unable to due to the Govt. taken down the provider u choose.

Yes, it would be added in the next release...!!!

May be, may be not...!!! Not many has complained about this, but I know it can happen...!!!! This sopa and pipa is interfering in everything...!!! I'll soon post a new link with a new version...!!! Was quite busy these days with other projects but now m free...!!! Till then keep up...!!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Adauth:
Check out the "Post-Via" app. You can create custom via- whatever you want. Also has a large selection of pre-set ones.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adiktz:
Yes, there are many like this and that...!!! Have you tried creating a custom via...??? If you have, you should have known the difficulty...!!! And do you use all the options available there...!!! I designed this app keeping these points in mind...!!! Easy of using and precise options to select devices...!!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Adauth:
Works well. It's not hard to make customs. Just copy/paste the app id when you make a new one. I love the app! :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adiktz:
Well, what can I say...!!!

Just one thing...!!! It's not only copy/paste...!!! It's not that simple...!!! Many more factors like your android SDK key etc have to be considered...!!!

Anyways, thanks for letting me know about the app, I'll try that and if I find it appropriate, I'll definitely add the feature to this one...!!!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] C2Q:
Well I rooted my SGS2 LTE (rogers version) a few days ago and now I'm thinking of returning it and getting the Galaxy Nexus that just came out. I saw the thread that lets me return to the stock rom but I have a few questions (can't post there cause of post count).

Will this restore all default rogers apps and unroot the phone completely so they wont know that I rooted the phone etc?

Will this remove all my apps/data? gmail account stuff etc? Basically would the phone be like it just came out of the box.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
Use odin and flash recovery.tar for ur rogers and it will get you unrooted and all the data will be erased. IT will be like stock. You know when you buy new phone how it comes flashing recovery.tar will make it like that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garu12:
Odin like previous comment. Really easy and puts everything back. Ive done it a few times when I completely borked my phone. Careful though is doesnt delete your user data. After odin just do a normal factory reset (settings, privacy, factory reset) and chose yes to format external memory if you want it 100% free of your info
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deadtorights:
If you flash with odin and stock rogers Rom, will this trigger the flash counter ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Not if you use the sammobile tar
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deadtorights:

No problem, it's the complete return to stock. That's all you need
[General Questions and Answers] driodman98:
I finally figured out this rooting thing so I need a little more help. I am Needing something that will do usb tethering for free on a HTC Thunderbolt. I am also needing an app that will help extend battery life. I have tried doing the PDAnet but the free version blocks https sites which pretty much means I can not use it for my gaming that I do. Lastly any rom suggestions that get the look and feel of ICS?
[General Questions and Answers] driodman98:
Any chance a moderator can move this to the HTC Thunderbolt q and a section, I didnt see that there was one and thats the exact phone I have.
[General Questions and Answers] watt9493:
try using cyanogenmod. usb and wifi tether come prepackaged in the rom.
[General Questions and Answers] HowDoiUseAndroid:
Juice Defender should extend your battery life. The basic version is free, but you'll have to pay a few bucks for the "Plus" version.
[General Questions and Answers] v8bait:
Once you're rooted and on a custom ROM I think you can download any of the wifi tether apps and use them instead, does it have to be USB? Also, I thought that Verizon phones can't do data and texts/calls at the same time, I'd think it would be frustrating to be gaming and get a text and be disconnected before a kill!
[General Questions and Answers] Grosskum:
you could copy the text and have a new post in the correct fourm?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tech.kyle:
My phone, a Droid X2, has a factory recovery menu which is accessed by power + volume down. I've seen in the Optimus One forums about a recovery by pressing Home + Vol Down + Power. I'd like to get CM7 on her phone since Koodo basically doesn't support the phone, so I thought I'd pop in to recovery, see what options I had, reboot without changing anything.

Android icon, progress bar, reboot.

My "Oh crap" senses are on full alert. I tell myself not to worry, it's probably just.. clearing cache or something. It boots up and says "Welcome to your new phone" and whatnot.

So, I'm quite certain that:

I'm in the doghouse for a loooong time

I'm going to help her re-set up her phone

The recoveries out there work by hijacking the factory reset keys and, not having installed a recovery, I just cleared everything with little to no hope of getting it back.

Confirm/deny?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dnle71:
Confirm.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crankyboy:
Best off luck ;)

You should have read first.

Because it need to be root and install clockworkmod recovery.. read the roll up sticky at dev section.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bec de Xorbin:
I did this once too. Unfortunately the original recovery just does factory reset.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tech.kyle:
I thought I had read such things. I've poked through most of the FAQs and whatnot and they occasionally reference a recovery with no mention of needing a custom recovery installed first. It just sounded like "Yeah, to get to recovery, press this." and I thought "Okay, easy enough"

I suppose it was a bit my fault assuming there was a factory recovery since my X2 has one. I guess I'll go upstairs and face the music.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crankyboy:
Hhaha. Lol

Root the phone .

Go to market install rom manager. Flash clockworkmod choose optimus one(you don't want to choose diff it can brick your phone)

After that download any custom rom.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tech.kyle:
I tried making a backup with the LG 3G Mobile Download Program. I saw the phone click in to a yellow background with the words "Emergency mode!"

My heart leaped in to my throat and I am finished messing around with this thing. I'd feel better if it was easier to SBF back to stock like my X2 can.

Edit: She wanted me to point out that she didn't bite my head off about it and that SOME girlfriends are nice about such things.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thedawg:
dude thats pretty fail.

are you saying now your stuck in emergency mode ? you should be able to get out of that using these instructions. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=883314

however when i did this i was stuck in boot loop and entered emergency mode myself. since your in emergency mode already, it may be slightly different, but give it a crack. you need to download the original firmware as well. i dont have the link.
