[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
On my Fascinate I my wifi experience hasn't been the best. It drops out in my room whereas my iPod touch 4 has no problems. And I almost always just get 1 bar, more if fairly close to the router.

Is anyone else having low wifi signal their fascinate?

Could it have anything to do with my ROM? It's JT's vanilla GB
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electric bill:
fascinates have crappy radios. I took my first one back because I thought the wifi was broken, only to get the new one home and find out that it was only marginally better.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomTcom:
I agree. I'm using CM7 nightly 112 with EH03 radio and I be 15-20 ft away unblocked for the signal and not have full bars. However, I was able to get 1.89Mbps with 3G whereas I only got around 1.2Mbps on the EC09 radio. I thought it may improve the wifi which is why I tried it but aparently no dice.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
okay, thanks guys.. At least it's not just me. so is it just the fascinate, or do all Galaxy S have bad radios?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanielNIX:
Hi,

I have an Italian Defy and I recently upgraded to official Froyo 2.2.2

On Eclair 2.1.1 there was a setting to mute the phone by flipping it facedown while ringing or double-tapping (this one never worked for me)

Now on Froyo I couldn't find this setting and flipping it seems to have no effect :(

Is there some secret file I can mess with (I'm rooted) to have it back without installing any 3rd-party app?

I'm also planning to switch to CyanogenMod 7, is this feature integrated?

Thanks!

[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Hello people, my question is whats stated in the title, im due an upgrade in 5 months but i am wanting the new 4g network when it becomes avaliable here in UK so would it be worth going for a quadcore phone first or waiting and getting a quadcore 4g? or will I have an extremely long wait?
[LG Optimus 2x] paul_cad44:
I'd save my money get a decent dualcore with 4 g why waste etxra money on quad core when its just overkill on a phone. Until battery life catches up dual cores the most I'm going to buy.

My opinion quadcore for tablets with bigger battery an screen realestate, phones no need to go above dual cores..
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Never thought about gettin a good dualcore and going with 4g, from what ive read in news it says the quadcore will use less power,unless ive been reading crap.

Does anyone know when 4g will be out in the UK?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hilfordjames:
Gidday - This morning I woke up to find my phone had switched itself off during the night while on charge.

Last night I put my phone to charge through USB connected to my PC in sleep mode. I've been charging the phone like this since I got it 3 weeks ago and its been working fine.

When I woke up in the morning I found the phone off and when I gave the power button a short press expecting it to show me the time all I got was a battery charging symbol.

When I went to bed I had the standard "Clock" feature running that comes standard with the Neo so it acts like a bedside clock and I always have the Wifi on when I'm at home.

No other applications were running in the background apart from the normal stuff but I'm quite concerned that the phone turned itself off while I was sleeping because I use the alarm feature to wake me up when I need to go to work and I know these Android phones do not wake themselves up to run the alarm.

Any ideas what could be causing this?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kormatoes:
Now this is very funny you say this because this happens to me,,, but I'm convinced I turn it off myself,in my sleep my partner confirms lol

But seriously could of just been a reboot

As long as it don't happen again it should be no great consern ''unless you sleep in for work'' lol
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
I heard charging like this(from night to morning) is not good for the battery.The owner of the shop where I brought my W595,Neo V specially told me NOT to do this,as he said this can reduce both battery life and phones life.Anyway don't get that much concerned about itself switching off mate after only happening it once.But if can in future don't charge like that.

lol kormatoes ,I on the other hand when ppl call in night sometimes I was told that I just answer it and instead talking keep it beside my pillow thinking it was alarm and go back to sleep xD
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kiwiBratwurst:
Was the phone fully charged when you woke up? If not I would guess something went wrong with the laptop..

I've never left my phone plugged into a laptop for charging, I always use the wall plug overnight.. And don't worry, plugging your phone in every night is not bad for your battery it control's the charge and drops down to 98% when it gets to 100% before charging again.. This trickle effect on a li-ion battery is fine (would have been bad for nicad or nimh tho) and your using a laptop usb which only delivers about 500ma that's a really nice slow (low C) charge rate, li-ion and li-poly batteries love to keep topped up, what they hate is to be discharged to much. (my 2c)

If you're really worried about this (random shutdown) happening on a work day then use the wall charger the phone came with.. Just to eliminate any other factors that might have contributed to it turning off (use the laptop on your days/nights off to try and replicate the fault) would be interesting to figure it out what caused it..

Kiwi
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hilfordjames:
Thanks for your comments guys.

I'm not sure why charging it via usb is going to do it any harm? or was the guy in the shop trying so say that its not good to have the phone plugged into the charger for hours on end once it gets fully charged? either way I've been thinking that charging via usb is better for the battery because its a lower energy input and therefore charges the battery slower/cooler which in turn should make it last longer (just guessing here - no science to back this up)

Then there is the having it plugged in while at 100% - I've noticed that the phone somehow disconnects itself and stops charging the battery when at 100%. I noticed this today when I started my phone after its surprising shutdown = the battery was fully charged (because it had been plugged in all night) and the battery display refused to show me that the phone was plugged in (when it was) so I turned on the flash light feature and blasted some music to drop the %tage down and sure enough as soon as the percentage dropped below 100% the indicators on the phone started to show the batter was charging (both via the lightening bolt in the normal battery icon and also on my battery monitor which tells me if its charging and how much longer it will be charging for).

I'm looking forward to seeing if the phone is still on tomorrow when I get up.

Any more ideas much appreciated - once might not sound like much but if the alarm/phone had the potential to be even the slightest bit unreliable then I'm going to have to go back to the old alarm clock. At least with my Nokia I could even switch the phone off and the alarm would still chime (we've all experienced this with the old school phones) but I notice that android hasn't managed this yet.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hilfordjames:
Thanks for your thoughts Kiwi (I've only just figured out who this is :) ) - The laptop was in sleep mode and from what I've experienced the only thing that works when in this mode is the usb ports - the Wifi and the Bluetooth shut down and I'm guessing that the processor mostly shuts down too? guessing here?

But even so what on the computer might cause the phone to crash?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Sorry if my earlier post was confusing,he told me its not good to have it plugged into the charger for longer periods of time after its fully charged.I too normally charge it with pc as phone came with one usb cable + charger plug with usb port & usb cable is always attached to my pc.Anyway about that keeping it for the whole night is bad theory I'm not sure if its correct or wrong but I prefer not keeping it plugged in for like 6-7 hours everyday while it only need 2-3 hours maximum to fully charge.

Normally if phone crashes it reboots right ? instead switching off ? :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I've noticed that when you reboot while plugged in, it might just go right into charge mode. Try turning it on, and then plug it in righ thereafter. Likely it will not boot, but go to the charge animation.

Can't try it myself, phone's in for repair :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hilfordjames:
Hmm interesting theory - but I've tried it and the phone has restarted : (

Probably a good thing but still no closer to finding the solution except I'm wondering if it was because my ROM memory was pretty much full? So in case it was I've moved a few things from System apps to User apps in the hope that the phone wont switch off by itself again.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
If you're rooted, I can recommend Link2SD.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kiwiBratwurst:
HilfordJames and I have discussed this in length already so this is more for other people's benefit..

Link to sd can be dangerous, as can forcing apps to sd that don't offer the choice normally, app developers block the option to install to sd for a reason, that is usually because the app accesses services that can become corupt or crash if the app is suddenly ejected from the phone (like when you mount the sd card on the computer) so its best to leave those apps on the internal memory.

The most likely reason for the overnight shutdown would be (as you said) that you had filled your system memory up with user apps.

Sure enough once you've deleted all that bloatware from the system you have heaps of room just begging to be filled in the system partition.. But you gotta leave some room in there (about 60-70mb should be enough)

I think another thing could be if your computer somehow woke up in the middle of the night and accessed (auto mounted) your phones sd card, sounds unlikely but I've had laptops run scheduled updates in the middle of the night when they were supposed to be "asleep" if this happened and you had an application running off sd card that uses phone services (like Wifi, bluetooth etc) this may have crashed the phone.. And as it was plugged into power remained shutdown.. Once again (AFAIK) these apps should be installed on the phone not sd card. (games and similar apps are fine on sd card)

Just a couple of theories, but I think we are on the right track :)

Kiwi
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hilfordjames:
Yip all good.

Since transferring a lot of the files/apps back to user memory I've not had the phone auto shutoff and I've tested it by leaving it on the CPU at night as well and it seems fine - although I now charge it from the wall charger if I'm working the next day just to be on the safe side.

Need a little more info. Are you Overclocking, Underclocking, and/or Undervolting?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daimler1727:
We may have the same problems, sir, though we may have a very slight difference on the device we're using. I haven't tried using Galaxy S so I can't really vouch on this to work on your device.

Recently, I have experienced that too on my Galaxy S II. Here's what I did:

1) I cleared my browser's cache from the application...

2) I formatted my SD card using the SD Formatter from this link...

3) I installed WatchDog just in case something goes wrong.

4) I move all my apps to my phone. No more apps on my SD.

It was quite hard to narrow down which one was the culprit because I did all the abovementioned procedures at the same time without testing which of them works or not. But ever since I applied those procedures, I never got any random reboot up to this point yet.

User Theonew also mentioned that it might be #4 that caused it. If it won't take much of your time, you can give it a try. But I suggest you apply #4 before trying the rest.

Another thread also mentioned that Dolphin HD browser was the culprit on their device. I cannot comment on this because I was having random reboots when, in fact, I don't have Dolphin HD on my device.

Galaxy SL keeps Restarting..

Hi Guys..

I too had the same problem. My GT-I9003 suddenly started restarting and it keeps restarting untill battery drains. If I remove the battery or manually start it back again.. It will ask the setup and all my contacts, messages are lost. I tried several troubleshoots and of no use.. I gave it to samsung authorised service for three times and finally got the mother board replaced. But again the problem started on the same day. I faced this issue for around 2 weeks and thought of

throwing my phone away.. but finally one day I found the cause and solution for this issue..

The main reason for this issue is, our phone got bricked..(99% of chance for Soft Brick and 1% of chance for hard brick).

I tried the following troubleshoot.. (This is the resolution for Soft Brick Issue)

1. Turnoff the phone..

2. Press the Volume up key on the left side of the phone and Home key simultaneously..

3. Holding those two keys.. Press the power on key..

4. Now your phone enters into recovery mode

5. There select the option to Factory reset and do the factory reset. I remember it as 3rd option..

6. After the factory reset, clear the partition cache which will be the 4th option in recovery mode..

7. After doing both these, there will be an option to reboot the phone.. select and let the phone restart..

If your phone is Soft bricked.. the issue will be resolved.. as like mine. Still if the problem exists, then the phone might got hard bricked(u r d unlucky 1%) and try replacing the internal sd card..

Umm, Android is open source. Why would there be anything wrong with sharing a ROM? When you walk into T-mobile and ask for an update they don't charge you for the software.
