Aw sweet, thanks buddy :)

Sent From My Epic Touch 3g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steindog99:
Working for me as well...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
How can this be removed? Didn't work for me on the Xplod rom... Wifi speeds actually went wayyyy down. Really wish it worked for me!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] solehjeff:
I would think you just remove the file in system/etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
Before/After, look at times

first ss is 3 tests over wifi then 3 over 3g.

2nd ss is same test with tweak flashed

Seems minimal averaged out based on results, but after i flashed the tweak, the speedtests finished 2x faster than they did the first round. I think i will keep it around thanks OP. Dont forget to nand first so you cant complain later :-) YMMV!

Calks 2.8.1 on el29 modem, if it matters..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gtuansdiamm:
My wifi went up a nice amount but 3g went down slightly

Oh wells

1st and 3rd from top are with tweak 2ed is with out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gunnar_Joh:
I tried this myself as I was getting inconsistant data readings on 3G. WiFi stayed the same. 4G/3G speeds increased dramatically over what they where here at work. Just the ping itself was way faster. I have a crappy signal where I live, but use the WiFi there anyway. Found that the EL13 rom/kernal with EL13 modem was most stable for my phone, 26 and 29 modem not so good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
where the zip to flash?

edit: nvm i found it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisnosleep:
Here's my experience. I tried just doing this tweak from this thread, but it didn't help. Then I got to thinking about another 3G tweak thread(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1265990) and adjusted those settings accordingly. I then went to settings/about phone/system updates and selected to update profile. After all of that, my 3G speeds doubled and my ping decreased by half, according to the speedtest program. Haven't done any real world testing yet, but things are looking up!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zoidpilot:
HOT DAMN! 3g speeds increased slightly, but my 4G went from average 7mbs to average 12mbs! ping sped up as well. Tried 3x in a row and consistently got above 11mbs :D

first 3 are before tweak. second attach is 4G. WiFi I saw no difference.

GREAT FIND!!!

okay, I'm noob. :confused: I tried using file manager to copy/paste it there (it said it couldn't).

So I'm still stuck on how to place that file into "/system/etc/".
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skyedream:
sorry i'm confused. i'm new to mod anything all i ever to is just simply flash the zip files...

so do i just flash this zip and don't have to do anything else such as making folder add codes drop files to location thingy??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
worked great for me. although I have good 3g where in at anyways. I'm in la mesa california. the bottom are my results before. also I have wifi results in there. but ya it works. also I have changed my other settings. the ones in the dialer that change the sprint values to 0.0.0.0 and 0.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I tried it with worse results after adding the file.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hayabusa1300cc:
You can flash this zip in Cwm

Or use ES File Explorer, enable both root and system write options in settings, and copy the extracted file into that location. Easy to remove if it doesn't work, just delete the file

You can flash this zip, and don't have to do anything else ")

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
It helped here in the Overland Park/Kansas City area. Usually I'm skeptical of things like this due to the majority suffering a placebo effect (like changing the HSPA class on a CDMA phone and claiming it helped :confused:). This actually does help depending on the reason for your slow speeds as stated before. So I'd say it's definitely worth a try for everyone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] h20wakebum:
I noticed that I didn't have that file in system/etc... does that mean anything?

I put it in there but again, it wasn't there to begin with? could that be a problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hayabusa1300cc:
No, that file shouldn't've been there to begin with by default; but putting it there has helped many.

I did this with no noticeable change. 3g still gets 200kb/s
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andygallo:
I added the conf file rebooted but, initially, it made no difference to my speeds. When I ran a "sysctl -a" it looked like none of the values were loaded. As soon as I ran "sysctl -p" to force load the conf file values and I went from ~350kbs to ~1mbs. So these values SEEM to work great for my situation. The values revert back after a reboot so I added the load command to an init.d script.

I'm running Calk's 2.6 ROM FWIW.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chochoking:
It made a 100 - 300 kbps difference, Thanks... Anything helps, I'm running on Verizon in New York City!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
Do you have to point to that file first before running the command or run it as-is? I assume su is used also.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] andygallo:
/system/etc/sysctl.conf is the default location and file name for the "sysctl -p" command, so no need to specify location. If you create the conf file in a different directory then you have to specify.

Yes, you have to be root for the load to work.

What ROM have you got installed? I had this problem with CM7-ICS-MOD2 rom, but I reinstalled the ROM and its fine.

I've also had problems with buying cheap USB cables that pass some voltage/current to the phone (so it shows charging icon) but somehow Windows won't recognise the phone... doesn't sound like your problem tho

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I have 4 cables that don't work on stock android 1.8.3 and I don't get it. I can use RSDLite and the computer detects it without the slightest issue. All the cables work flawlessly if I start rsd on phone boot and it detect right up. So what is wrong with the stock 1.8.3? Should I upgrade... I want to root my phone but can't since I can't use USB.... wtf?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex740il:
When you plug in your phone, check if you see anything in device manager. Maybe you need to install drivers..
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Windows doesn't have a clue no matter how many perfect cables I use. It works and connects perfectly and immediately over rsdlite. I have 5 known to be working fine in cm7 cables. It will show as charging over AC if I restart the phone and keep the usb cable plugged in. It says it's charging over ac and it doesn't detect it in Media portal or mass storage or anything. Nothing shows up. Why is it that rsdlite works perfectly. This makes me seem that the android OS is at fault. Right? Nothing shows up in Device Manager. Only when in rsd lite mode, it will detect the phone and it will show up in Device Manager.

it's been about 48 hours one a full battery and it'll still at like 80%. I need to charge my phone soon...

Maybe I'll re-flash in rsdlite again? I flashed all the sbf's for stock roms with the same result. Should I reinstall again?

thanks
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpc8dd:
I flashed a Defy+ rom (2.3.4) on my Defy (MB525), and it worked great. GPS and location finding, however, didn't work. My idea was to flash back to the stock 2.2.1 and restart to get upgraded to a more stable custom Gingerbread rom. The original issue in doing so was that the flash (WajkIUI) was for the MB 526. I was finally able to flash by changing the USB drivers to the MB526 drivers. Much to my dismay, flashing the stock USA TMobile Froyo through RSD Lite (versions 4.6, 4.9, 5.0, 5.3, 5.6) did not work. It will flash, then note it as a "PASS," then the screen on the phone shuts off. I even tried flashing back to the factory stock 2.1 using the same, but to no avail. My phone currently will not turn on at all, though retains the white LED after the power button is pressed if plugged into my PC. I have tried pulling the battery for a few minutes and using the bootloader, but it will not turn on unless connected through the PC. I noticed similar issues in the following threads, and tried the suggested solutions:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frederick84-lb:
Hello,

I had purchased the GS2 I9100G.

I was unaware that it was a G, and unaware of all the I9100 vs. I9100G difference

I wanted to root the device, I selected a rooted Kernel Image (zImage) but that was appropriate for I9100.

Back then, the phone hung at the Galaxy S2 Screen with the exclamation mark [Indicating the custom ROM, no big deal], but thing is the battery stopped charging.

Now I restored the phone, with its full phone capabilities (2g/3g), wifi etc...

Yet When I plug it in the Main or on USB it tries to charge then states "BATTERY Disconnected"

I rooted the device and went through /data/log to the kernel_recovery_log.txt

it says "Invalid Battery"

The Battery, yet, is the standard Lithium 1650mAH and it can charge on other phones. The charger is providing power till the metal pins (that the battery connects to, verified by a voltmeter).

Can Anyone Assist me in solving this? Appreciate a lot
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ionious:
Seems like the battery is faulty. Have you checked if it stores charge?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frederick84-lb:
hey, it does store charge indeed. I'm recharging it in other phones to use it meanwhile. It is embarassing since even the Samsung local support suspected a hw problem: they changed the IT Power CHIP and yet the problem persisted.

Personally I do not think it is a Hardware problem but rather a software issue
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] szozo1:
I have the same think with my own one (I9100G).

When the problem appear, i restart the device or turn it off to charge the battery.

I have several other bugs with this s2 i9100g.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frederick84-lb:
As a matter of fact, the real problem was that support somehow messed with the phone's hardware without informing me. You only get such sort of problems in Lebanon. They changed the main board for free just to conceal their first mistake. I didnt mind after all )) I will close this thread now that I know what was the problem. But overall, a wrong firmware or Kernel cannot brick a Galaxy S2. Whatever you do on the software level, you can always restore it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frederick84-lb:
You can still boot to download using the USB JIG. And the USB JIG can be hand made.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Jig doesn't work every time. Plenty of instances of people on here being unable to get into download mode via usual method, and jig failing due to bootloader being corrupted/phone borked/etc.

As JJE said, phone can still be 'damaged' due to a flash gone wrong, and at the end of the day, Samsung won't fix this under warranty. You'd need to have it JTAG'd by a third party repairer. Either way you end up paying in these scenarios, if you don't want to go down the 3rd party JTAG route, Samsung will fix it if you pay them.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frederick84-lb:
Man, I dunno if you got wot I meant: I had explicitly corrupted a kernel of a 9100G by using that of a 9100.

You wont see the download mode (android robot at all anymore). All you get is "Firmware Upgrade Encountered". Even when you plug in the Jig, "Firmware Upgrade Encountered" Screen remained. I concluded that this is also download mode, as much unusual as can be. Odin could see the phone, and I flashed a proper 9100G PDA and fixed things. You might have another perspective, but so far i considered that nothing worse could happen ))
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frifox:
Well, sh1t. This has been driving me nuts for past few days and I'm frankly out of ideas on what to do. Got two phones, both set up pretty much the same. Fresh flashed both to the latest greatest Calk's 2.8.1 / EL29 and one of the phones is having WiFi problems. It's constantly scanning and not finding any networks. A quick reboot fixes the problem but few hours later it comes back. At one point it turned WiFi on for 20 seconds and then shut it back off. :confused:

Both phones were flashed with full wipes, installed exact same apps on both (except 1 or 2 apps), used same settings on both, and yet one works fine and other simply hates WiFi. Before flashing WiFi worked perfect on both.

Also, here's a video demonstrating the problem:

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] overthatscreen:
I'm rooted and running the stock rom. (I finally have a working GPS) So I went ahead and edited my build.prop file. Did a reboot and no more system update notifications for almost a month now.
[Kindle Fire General] UberDuper:
If you've got one of the ICS roms installed and want more of the market, this worked for me.

edit /etc/permissions/tablet_core_hardware.xml

Below <feature name="android.hardware.screen.landscape" />

add

<feature name="android.hardware.location.gps" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus-flash" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.front" />

Then goto Settings, Apps, All, Google Services Framework. Force Stop and Clear data.

Reboot

That should enable all the features cept for the phone stuff. After doing this I can find and install Facebook, NFL '11 for Android Tablet, Springpad, Tiny Tower, etc. All the examples I could find of people saying they couldn't install.

If there is an app in the market you can't install, find a copy of the apk and run

platform-tools/aapt dump badging file.apk

That will give you the list of required features. For example

uses-feature:'android.hardware.location'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.location.gps'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.location.network'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.microphone'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.touchscreen'
uses-feature:'android.hardware.screen.landscape'

Just add whatever you're missing. Do the force close, clear data, reboot.

Info obtained from here developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html

UD.
[Kindle Fire General] csholmq:
Wow, that's awesome! That explains why so many apps were "incompatible". This saves us the trouble of hijacking some other devices fingerprint to bypass the problem.

I thought I'd add my 2 cents to your guide though as /etc (/system/etc) is readonly through adb.

Remount the system partition as read-write

$ adb remount

Enter the shell

$ adb shell

Edit your file with your editor of choice

# vi /etc/permissions/tablet_core_hardware.xml

Insert lines and save

<!-- Fake it 'til you make it! -->
<feature name="android.hardware.location.gps" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus-flash" />
<feature name="android.hardware.camera.front" />

Then force close Google Services Framework, clear it's cache and reboot.

As for the facebook and twitter apps, you only really need the location.gps line.
[Kindle Fire General] UberDuper:
Yeah looks like build.prop is irrelevant for market access in ICS. This is a far better way for them to do it. Kinda stupid that apps would be "incompatible" due to gps but that's on the app developers.

Make sure those feature name lines are added inside of the <permissions> tag. Don't just add them to the end of the file.

Within about 2 hours of making this change, the market website updated and everything became compatible so I could also do installs from there.

Oh and could someone with enough post-juice link this thread into bl1nkk's ISC development thread?
[Kindle Fire General] rolyatkcinmai:
To be clear, this is ICS specific right?

Because it would be amazing to not have to screw with build.prop on the stock ROM.

Done.
[Kindle Fire General] UberDuper:
I don't have a stock or cm7 rom installed to test, but looking at the modaco zip file the directory structure and files are there. They're named a little different but it should be easy enough for someone to test. Just add everything to /system/etc/permissions/handheld_core_hardware.xml.

Just make sure anything you add is inside these tags
