If I speak to someone on loudspeaker they always complain they can hear themselves talking,I never had this problem with any other phone, so why this? :s
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] backreed:
Hi,

with my phone i have no problem regarding this; i'm on codename android 1.1.4 with minimalistic kernel 1.7.1 and i have no problem at all using loudspeakers (no echo to the caller). This happen also in stock rom.

So, let's try another rom (maybe stock first) and then compare the result. So basically you have two choices: phone related problem (meaning hardware) or software problem (menaing rom - and in this case is kernel related).....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameslfc5:
Thanks I'll give it a try with my friends phone to try and eliminate whether it's a ROM related problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CB620:
No issues over here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jameslfc5:
Maybe it's a hardware fault with my phone then :/

[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
I don't know about u guys but mine is sense 2.1/3.0 cuz it has a mix of things and its smooth ! (Mikg) wats urs?
[Droid Incredible General] SlimSnoopOS:
I have to say, I've grown to enjoy what Sense 3.5 has to offer. I fully intend the remainder of my phones on contract life to be spent with either Nils Business GingerSense 3.5 or (my currently installed rom) Warm TwoPointThree. I missed out on Warm TwoPointTwo and all it's heyday so I'm fully enjoying my first ever run with the Warm series.

Side note, I think my next android phone will spend its life on AOSP either because:

A) it's a Nexus device

B) I rooted/installed an AOSP rom
[Droid Incredible General] bukithd:
My current favs are Stock+/Inc-Deck GB/OMGB

I never have had a good experience with sense 3.0+ roms, too slow and I dont want to overclock although some of the roms are built really well. AOSP is really nice on our old hardware and always runs clean.
[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
Yea sense 3.5 is REALLY great but also is REALLY laggy but overall I find it to be one if the best too.
[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
I agree
[Droid Incredible General] iowabeakster:
I'm on Inc-Deck-GB myself, I guess that probably answers the question.

with special props to SkyRaider 4.+... that was the best sense ROM. I would still use it if it had ever got updated to Gingerbread.
[Droid Incredible General] Fergusonfox7:
I've never tried MikG, Downloading and flashing tonight ^.^ hows the battery life? What kernel do you use etc? My personal fav has always been CM7 (:
[Droid Incredible General] watt9493:
Cm7 loyalist no doubt. It gives the best performance, support, and customization of any rom. When I get a new phone, ill be shopping on the base of roms, and cm7 support is a must.

-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
same here, love CM7. With heavy customization from android kitchen and other apps I'm loving my phone and don't have any urge to try other ROMs (maybe a bad thing?)

Sense always gave my phone a little more bloat, no matter how small it was, I'm still all for faster and leaner so that's why I've been stuck to CM7.
[Droid Incredible General] Fergusonfox7:
Just loaded up MikG and its booted, but its at the mikmikmik wallpaper, and no unlock screen, i can see the battery, time 3g and signal bar though..
[Droid Incredible General] bukithd:
Same happened to me on that rom a few times. I got it booted on my first flash but after that, none.

If you want a fun rom to play around with I suggest anyone of the super stock AOSP roms i.e. OMGB/Bugless Beast. What better way to customize than to start with the bare bones.
[Droid Incredible General] pianoplayer:
MIUI with my WP7 customizations runs like a boss. I underclock to 245/128 when I listen to music only and it runs as maybe a 700 MHz Sense rom would, while getting maybe days of battery.
[Droid Incredible General] DustinBooyah:
I'm using Stock Plus with a bunch of themes I blended together. My favorite ROM of all time was WarmZ though. What I would give to have it in Gingerbread form... its what's in my sig actually.
[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
U format boot and system ?
[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
Battery life isn't the best but its still great I use tinys latest kernel 12/31
[Droid Incredible General] MagnaCore:
Redemption 2.2 my battery life was beast haha froyo. Bugless/Synergy if it didn't time bomb/cm7
[Droid Incredible General] danbest82:
ended up with MIUI

My first flash in the rooting game was McTwist. I enjoyed it but wanted to try something else. I switched to Nils Business GingerSense with sense 3.0 and loved his design and the smoothness. Something happened where after a few weeks my phone became unstable tho. Could have been my kernel or my phone or even the charger I was using since apps crashed when plugged in. I then decided to get away from sense roms and tried MIUI 1.12.9. It's smooth and doesn't seem to have that sense bloat. I flashed the latest incredikernel and have been loving the ROM since. It has custom themes which is great for me. I also find myself using the stock dialer,SMS, and camera instead of searching for an after market app. The only thing I didn't like was the homescreens and the launcher so I just use launcherpro and everything looks good.

So as a recap:

McTwist was good

Nils Business GingerSense was great but caused phone problems for me

Sticking with MIUI for now
[Droid Incredible General] SlimSnoopOS:
I can see how the lag puts people off from Sense 3.5. I haven't run into the issue cuz I use ADW Ex (proudly purchased for .10 cents awhile back) and I just go about my business.
[Droid Incredible General] Alton (Halo 2):
Yea I dont mind the lag but I just need to flash a sense 2.1/3.0 once in a while :)
[Droid Incredible General] SlimSnoopOS:
I believe it. Probably my personal favorite moment to be a member of XDA was when we first had the GingerSense leak last May. Development just shot through the roof for Sense 2.1+ roms. Sense 2.1 is the sweet spot.

Hi, does infuse fall under galaxy s phones? Can ICSSGS be put on samsung infuse?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dustinhayes93:
Not right now... ill save Dman the trouble... Search before ya post lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
ONLY IN CANADA.. yes it is similar in many ways but galaxy s is nothing but a branding. the ics you are talking about is only foe the i9000 family. that's the i9000 captivate and vibrant though it may also be on the fascinate and epidemic because those phones maybe can use bits for the nexus s 4g from sprint. there are also galaxy s phone that don't share hardware like the i9003, sgs 2 mini and sgs plus which are not cross compatible

it needs a lot of work due to the screen, cameras, radio, Bluetooth, GPS and maybe wifi hardware being different. it may be possible but would be lucky to even reach the level of cm7 which still has no audio over Bluetooth.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] krantiredeyes:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjai117:
My brother with the Moto Milestone, my buddy with the HTC Legend, and my other buddy with the Samsung Galaxy S, all on their pre-loaded manufacturer android OS installs.

All of them over time have come to a slow crawl akin to not formatting a windows ME PC after 2 months of usage. The Galaxy S should be a blazing fast phone still, am I right? It's still on 2.2 or 2.3...

My nexus one never got slow like their phones, however I did flash new roms from time to time so maybe that's why, or is it because these manufacturers load them with garbage? Is there a way to speed them up without wiping them? Is this a common issue with pre-installed OS'?

[HTC EVO 3D] wemadethis:
Using Joelz ICS ROM, the goal is to get reverse tethering working, so that a wifi only (no contract) EVO 3D will receive internet from another internet enabled Bluetooth phone. Joelz ROM has almost everything needed to get DUN working: pppd, rfcomm, and sdptool. The only thing missing is the chat binary?

Using lophyte's guide, here, should provide all that is needed to build the missing component, the Chat binary. Or you could try using the Chat Binary I compiled using ppp 2.4.3 (please do consider I'm still a newbie, so I'm not sure if it's 100%). vampirexhunter's useful guide will provide what's needed to create the connection: here.

Bluetooth DUN tethering should work for ATT, Verizon, Tmobile, etc. If you have a CDMA/GSM internet enable bluetooth phone, you should be able to tether your EVO 3D to it. From what I've read, these providers should be easier to connect to by getting the correct APN string. So far, I've connected my EVO 3D to a Boost Mobile iDEN phone over a bluetooth connection for 1 minute, but there is no internet, and the connection disconnects soon afterwards. For my issue, I believe Boost Mobile has a special chat script to enable the DUN on their phones?

If you give this a try, please post your provider, phone model, status. Attach peer file, chat script

Provider: Boost Mobile

Phone Mode: Motorola i576

Status: Not working

tl;dr Goal, get bluetooth DUN working for ICS ROM. Provide internet connection for EVO 3D through other phone that has internet. Connect using bluetooth DUN. You try?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
I was beginning to get a bit fed up with the constraints of my green lens Defy, so I thought I'd upgrade myself to a Defy+. I was lucky - so I thought - to get a nearly new one for a reasonable price on eBay, especially when it turned out to be in pristine condition when it arrived.

My first disappointment was to find that I couldn't root it - SuperOneClick was completely ineffective, and none of the other rooting tools suggested on XDA worked either. I noticed that the system build was a version I hadn't seen before: 4.5.1-134_DFP-188, and I decided to try flashing another 2.3.6 SBF which was reported to be rootable. Unfortunately this turned out to be a bad idea, since every 2.3.6 SBF I've tried has left the phone unresponsive. It goes though the "Updating SW" phase OK but all I ever get after RSD Lite reports PASS is a black screen.

I thought that if I sent the phone off to Motorola they'd at least be able to put a working build on it. I wouldn't even have minded paying a small fee for the repair. But no, second disappointment: they say that the IMEI doesn't appear in their "system" so they won't repair it. What's all that about? It's clearly a Motorola phone - it says "Motorola" on the front! - so what's the IMEI got to do with whether or not they can repair it? They sent it back still bricked, and I've not yet managed to get a sensible explanation from them as to why.

I was beginning to get a bit suspicious at this point: unknown IMEI, previously unknown system build - and now I find that the same seller seems to have a listing for a "nearly new" Defy+ on eBay almost continuously - but only ever one at a time. Is it just me, or does that look a bit fishy?

So anyway, here I am with an unusable Defy+ which Motorola apparently won't touch with a bargepole. I'm trying to work out what's my best course of action:

* I could raise a dispute with eBay - but then I've got no real proof that the seller is dodgy, and arguably the phone stopped working as a result of my own actions;

* I could sell the phone on eBay as "spares or repair", at a significant loss;

* A bit extreme this one: I could try a bit of surgery, and swap the red lens module from the Defy+ into my Defy, which should allow me to flash a proper GB SBF on to it. I'd be left with a dead Defy+ minus a camera module, and a green lens camera module, neither of which would likely fetch very much on eBay. There would also be a serious risk of killing my working Defy;

* I could just hang on to the Defy+ in the hope that an SBF will eventually turn up online that will bring my phone back to life. Right now, though, that feels a bit like hoping for a miracle...

Anyone got any other suggestions, or helpful advice?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimminez:
look here to see if your phone has a fake iemi number

http://www.esoftnetonline.com/cellphones.htm
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
I have checked the IMEI number of the Defy+ here and here. Both web sites say that IMEI is valid, issued by BATB, and that it's a Motorola. The first site identifies the model as MB525+ whereas the second site identifies it as an ME525+ - but does then say that it's a Defy+. The phone (when it was working) said that it was an MB526, which AFAIK is the correct model number for the Defy+. The other slightly odd thing is that the bluetooth address on the IMEI sticker is missing. If I could power the phone up I could check its WiFi MAC address - I know that WiFi worked when the phone was working. Oh well, too late for that.

There's a photo of the front of the phone and the battery compartment here. Apart from the missing BT address it looks OK. I'm not sure what the wee sticker in the SIM slot is about.

So it looks like the IMEI might be genuine, but the model number is a bit odd. Maybe that's why Motorola won't touch it.

Could someone with a genuine MB526 Defy+ check their IMEI through those web sites and report back what they say?

UPDATE: So it looks like my phone might be either a Chinese (ME525+) or Hong Kong (MB525+) model. So maybe 4.5.1-134_DFP-188 is the latest Chinese firmware. I suppose I could go looking on mfunz but it's not easy to read that forum, even translated through Google.

I wonder what eBay would say about a non UK market phone being sold here, without any indication that it was a grey import? It would certainly explain why it was sold without any box or instruction manual. The way the seller seems to work makes me think that maybe they have relatives regularly going back and forth, bringing a phone with them each trip...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaredlyvers:
I have been looking around for a piece of software that will allow me to share my android tablet screen with multiple android tablets. For example, say I have a pdf that I want to present. I would like to present it on my tablet but let all the people in the room have a tablet that I have passed out to them. This way, as I flip through the presentation they are seeing the same thing I am seeing on my screen. This would remove the need to try and carry and or setup a projector which in some cases just isn't doable. Does anyone know of any software that can do this w/out needing to go to the cloud for a service like Fuze Meeting or Soonr. I need to make sure that the other tablet users could not flip ahead in the presentation but only view what I am presenting.

Does anyone know of any software that currently does this?

Watching a video is much easier than reading a tutorial, since you can directly replicate what the tutor does.

The site is not very widescaled yet, since we have just started this project, but hopefully it will expand in near future.

You can find us at: http://lachaffe-mobile.eu/

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fixxervi6:
I am new to android so I'm trying to learn, and in the process jacked up my phone.

So I did something not so smart and updated my AT&T Galaxy S2 via these instructions:

androidauthority samsung-galaxy-s2-ice-cream-sandwich

(sorry it won't let me post the URL)

It actually worked, however, my back button doesn't work, and my search button doesn't work, I can make a call but can't hear anything and they can't hear me and vice versa.

I realized there are some samsung glaxy's out there that just have the home button, I figured I must have loaded one of those roms so I tried to load the "stock" rom to go back to where I was.

I can load the stock rom but when the phone boots up to the green android symbol startup wizard the phone just sends a cascade of errors one after another and you can't proceed any furhter.

So I went back to the orignial ICS from the post above, and the phone comes back up, only same problems but at least I can load it up and surf/get e-mail/text.

So I start playing around with mixing parts, and I find out that basebad is the "radio", and I can change that to different versions without changing the OS version, so I figure I must have some kind of mis match going on.

I used Odin and there is PIT, BOOTLOADER (I didn't touch bootloader) PDA PHONE and CSC.

Is it safe to assume if everything works but voice calls, that I need to find the right "phone" version? what about the back button and search buttons?

I have the "stock" PDA version, but I'm guessing that doesn't work because I need the matching PIT, and CSC? Where do/can I find those?

My phone shows network state connected, shows IMEI number and can surf the web but no voice, all other audio works.

Please help a newbie out, and help me understand what PIT, PDA/PHONE/CSC is all about so I can get my phone working again.
