[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
I would like to know if USB OTG is possible on X8?

I have a OTG cable which I tested on Xperia Arc S, and it works there.

Actually the usb flash memory LED turns on, and phone recognizes it but can't use it because it's not LiveDock or however they call their official dock.

but the point is cable works.

I have tried the same cable and flash drive on X8. drive's LED don't turn on and logcat doesn't write any massage.

It seems like nothing happened. nothing at all.

i tried this with a few alfs kernel + GDX combination. and now with last ones v06 and v022.

alfsamsung, once, on his kernel thread, told that USB OTG support is in the kernel.

So, I wan't to ask, is or hardware not capable for OTG, or something else has to be done in kernel/ROM.

did anybody else try this.

I just want to know, not to hope for it anymore, if it's not possible.

Thank you

P.S. I also tested with Hard drive that has external power supply

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulen:
Well, i hope then, they or anybody else that knows this will see this post and answer.

And my thanks goes to alfsamsung in advance, because he did say he included support in kernel, but can't test it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19237215&highlight=usb+otg#post19237215

And I have cable but nothing happens when I use it.

not a single logcat massage.

That's why I want to know if hardware supports it at all?

Thank you

So can we use USB OTG with X8 or what? Does it work with nAa or ISC kernel? I have no OTG-cable to test with, and I want to be sure that it will be working before buy one.:)

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeWalker:
Why? are there some hardware problems or something? ZTE Blade have the same hardware (CPU & GPU) and support OTG
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3493119:
It wont work, it need new usb kernel libs
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeWalker:
So why not ZTE Blade kernel's libs?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderX:
It is not that simple. New libs need to be compiled specifically for the X8 as the ZTE blade and the X8 are different devices.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pilu1978:
Theoretically our phone (and all msm7x27 based phone) support the usb otg function BUT our hardware not support it. :( You can enable the otg function in the kernel, and you can try any app from the market, but it will NOT work. The usb socket on our phone NOT give power to the connected device. Maybe it can be work if you give power to the connected device from another power source, but basically this is useless (connect an usb device to x8 AND an external power supply, so forget it)

So no matter what application I'm using on my Radar and how I exit the app, i.e., just pause, back all the way out, etc. the music starts playing again when I turn off my BT headset. I've tried looking through settings to no avail.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JVH3:
That's odd. Music should automatically stop playing when your bluetooth device is shutoff.

It should not automatically start.

Please describe every detail of what you are doing, connected to, etc. Order and timing might be important.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hah2110:
Starting with phone idle

Turn on Bluetooth headset

Verify it is connected in Settings

Back out and go to a streaming app (has occurred in slacker and metroradio)

Either pause music, pause and back all the way out, just back all the way out, etc.

Shut screen/put in pocket

Turn off bluetooth headset

Music starts playing from phone speaker

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makman25:
I've had the same issue with the background audio from Podcasts! Pro. It doesn't do this with Zune. I'm guessing its an issue with the way the background api is being implemented.

Another thing i've noticed, when it switches to or from BT, the audio picks up from the last point before BT is connected. Example, if I'm listening to an hour long podcast, and I get 23 minutes into it before switching to BT, even when I listen to another 20 minutes of the podcast, it will revert back to the 23min point once BT is disconnected.

Same issue here

Hi,

I'm having the same issue here with a Mercedes B180 built in Handsfree and Lumia 800.

It happens with Wimp, not Spotify.

As a matter of fact music Streaming is not working at all from any app to this HF.

However: BT with my combination is ok for Contact Transfer and Phone functions so it's not a catastrophy, but....

One other thing: When turning ignition off, ongoing calls are disrupted and not returned to the handset...

Nokia Support said that this is a issue caused by them using the Microsoft BT Stack for Music Streaming while probably Mercedes is using some other (Widcomm, Toshiba...)

BTW: I've used iPhone in this scenario and it works fine with all functions.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] necromancerfinal:
Hi,

I faced a strange issue with a Samsung Galaxy i9003 of a friend of mine.

The phone was on stock firmware 2.2.1 but it was having a lot of FCs and sudden restarts. Also, my friend wanted to upgrade it to Gingerbread.

I managed to flash a stock firmware 2.3.4 Arabic into the phone through Odin. I selected re-partition, then in 3e recovery mode I wiped both partition cache and user data.

However, when the phone booted, it was upgraded to 2.3.4 as it should but all the data and apps were kept as they are! I tried a factory reset from setting and still all the data remain intact.

I booted into recovery again and wiped all data but all remain the same! I flashed the stock firmware again using Odin and still no data were wiped! I even formatted the internal storage with no luck...The phone wasn't rooted, how this is possible?

Thanks in advance :)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] billooms:
After installing Honeycomb on my Flyer (Best Buy version), the "Weather Clock" widget can't find my current location. It says "No weather data available". This was not a problem prior to the Honeycomb upgrade. Launching the full screen "Weather" app does the same. I can't add my location explicitly, because only a few of the largest cities in Arizona are in the search list.

Location settings have all the boxes checked. GPS seems to work OK, and the Map and Navigation programs know where I'm at. WiFi seems to work OK for everything. Using Internet, the mobile accuweather site uses my location OK. Internet settings has "Enable location" checked.

Things I've tried: I dragged the Weather Clock widget to "Edit" and selected "Current Location". I deleted the widget and added it again choosing "Current Location". In the application manager, I stopped anything running that appeared to be affiliated with weather and cleared the data. I did a "Restart" (i.e. close all apps and restart tablet).

By the way, my cell phone (HTC Incredible) shows the weather OK, so I know that the weather service does provide content for my location (it's not some weather server problem).

Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how do I get the weather widget working again like it was in Gingerbread?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Never seen that reported here as far as I know. my HC widget works fine.

Suggestions:

Go to the settings/applications and clear data and cache for the HTC weather sync app

If you are rooted, get into recovery and clear the Dalvik cache and reboot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] billooms:
Thanks for your prompt reply.

I did a "Clear Data" on all the running weather related stuff:

HTC weather sync provider

Weather

Weather Agent Service

Weather Provider

Weather Widget

The "Clear cache" button was grayed out on all (and showed 0.00B).

The only result is that the city list was blanked out and I had to re-enter any other cities I chose to have on the watchlist. It still doesn't use my current location.

No, I'm not rooted and I'm enough of a noob to hesitate doing so.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Try clear data on the HTC weather sync app
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
You could do a full factory data reset in Settings>Privacy. You will lose data so first try reinstalling Honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] billooms:
Thanks for the suggestions. Cleared the data on the HTC weather sync app and no better.

I took the hard road of a factory reset. (I first backed up all my downloaded apps to the sd card with Astro, so re-installing them was easy). I was actually surprised that it re-installed Honeycomb (I thought it would go all the way back to the original 2.whatever). So it wasn't too painful.

Weather is now sunny in my location.

Thanks to all.

I am using root explorer for deleted system application. This is very simple.

By the way , we must change samsung keyboard for foreign language users.

AxT9IME.apk ---> samsung keyboard so if we are deodex this application , we can use.

i used XXXKPF stock rom and took system folder AxT9IME.apk , if we deodex this keyboard thats will be perfect.

Thanks
[Kindle Fire General] celticluna:
When I installed it the app asked me if I wanted to sync on first run.

Check under settings>accounts & sync. There should be a setting for it there. (there is in mine)
[Kindle Fire General] ontwowheels:
In the FB app I don't have a accounts & sync option. In the sync settings for the Fire there are no settings for FB, only google.
[Kindle Fire General] celticluna:
Have you tried removing it and re-installing? When I first ran it after installation it gave me 3 options for syncing... all FB contacts, existing contacts, or none.

Either something didn't install right, or 6.2.2 is blocking a component. I'm running the ICS ROM, and it worked with CM7 as well.
[Kindle Fire General] ontwowheels:
Thanks for the reply. I uninstalled the app, the fb app does not show up for me in either the market or Amazon market. I think when I installed it before I had backed up and sideloaded it from my phone.

Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire General] celticluna:
If you sideloaded it is it still in the /sdcard directory so you can install it again? Or did you delete it afterwards?
[Kindle Fire General] ontwowheels:
Good thinking....I installed it again but it never asked about any syncing options.
[Kindle Fire General] chairshot215:
If you are on stock its a no go as far as I know. Maybe if you installed account and sync settings but then you a, do not have the actual UI for the settings and b, the contacts app on stock is not the same app used on standard Android devices so neither the settings or the Facebook app you sideloaded will know how to talk to the amazon contacts app. I tried doing this also but then decided to go over to cm7,
[Kindle Fire General] ontwowheels:
Gotcha, and GO FLYERS

I am on the stock rom, and do have the sync settings app installed. There are settings there for google contacts and calender syc because I installed those two sync adapters to /system/app and changed the permissions. I thought maybe there was a similar sync adapter for facebook....but there is probably more to it.

No biggie.....thanks for the reply.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] spookymo:
Hi,

My problem in as few words as possible:

i am using a HD2 with clk1.4 and TBDs current(3.2) nand-build.

my radio is 2.15 (had the same problem with 3.1 and radio 2.08)

after flashing the rom everything was fine.

after a day or so i realized i was unable to recieve/make phonecalls (which workes at first).

a reboot seemed to fix the problem.

it reappeared some hours later.

i did a complete fresh install of version 3.1 with task29, freshly formatted SD and everything "according to the book". same thing happened.

when version 3.2 came out i did a clean install of that new version - exactly the same thing happens.

it is very hard to tell why or (exactly) when it happens. i keep test-calling the phone and keep making test-calls with it. everything working fine. then at some point it just cant be called anymore. from the calling phone it appears like i just dont pick up on the HD2 - but the HD2 is making no sign whatsoever of being called - i can still use it, its not frozen - just doesnt seem to realize its being called. shows 3-5 bars of network-strength (or whatever you call that).

trying to do a call from the HD2 has a strange result: its not really dialing - it says something like "connecting to [contact]" or "establishing connection to [contact]" (sorry - i dont know what the correct translation is. its "rufaufbau" in german) but doesnt get through.

if i hang up the statusbar on top of the screen keeps showing the little green phone-symbol and keeps blinking transparent-green.

i tried activating airplane-mode to turn off (and then on) the sim-card but that just results in a greyed out airplane-mode-toggle-field and saying "turning on airplane mode...." (or similar) but nothing really happening.

i am sorry that i am unable to post that in the development-thread but the 10-post-rule prevents that.

i was also unable to find that question solved anywhere.

might it be related to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1361949&page=4 ?

any sort of help is greatly appreciated.
