[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CZroe:
"I can't get to forward my calls through voice." I'm not sure what you mean. You can't get it to take incoming calls to your Google Voice number and forward to your native number or you can't get it to take incoming calls top your native number and forward to Google Voice for voicemail? Mine pops up a dialog saying that it failed to forward native calls to GV voicemail but it actually works. Even if it didn't there's still a code I can dial in to do the same thing. Some carriers do not support it though. My boss could not use GV to forward his MetroPCS voicemail to. If you are saying that you want calls made to your native number to ring your GV number, that would not be a feature of GV. That would require you to set up forwarding through your carrier.

"I can't set it to receive texts through voice only." Uhh, it can't block texts sent to your native number. Block texting with your provider and tell people to forget your old non-GV number, then use the GV app to receive texts (setting it to also receive via native Messaging app will forward them to your mobile number as regular billable text messages despite the wording of the option). Forwarding native texts to GV is also something your carrier would have to do unless you could find some app to do it. It's not a GV function.

I should have been a bit more clear. Was in a flurry last night.

I've got most of it fixed. I ported my phone number to voice when I changed carriers. So everyone still calls that, then voice routes the call to any phone you want. When I call out from my Nexus, it goes through Google voice and on the other persons end it shows my Voice number instead of my "real" phone number.

My Xperia recieves calls fine now, but I cant get it to call out through Google voice. So people are seeing my "real" number instead of my voice number.

First world problems.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CZroe:
In the options for th GV app I set it to use GV for all outgoing calls. If I have a poor signal or weak WiFi, it causes it to hang on some intermediary screen before the dialer pops up so it is using Internet data for that step. If you can't enable the option, I'd check your cellular data settings.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Zardos66:
Oh yeah. Ive got that set up. Been using voice for over a year now. Play just doesn't seem to like it as much.

In a completely unrelated note, this phone has amazing battery life
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CZroe:
The only issue I have on my PLAY is the error saying that I can't enable voicemail forwarding even though it does enable it and forward just fine (the setting still shows that my carrier is handling VM). Even then, I think it's a problem with AT&T still having something configured wrong from my iPhone plan with VVM. Also, my battery would die in 8 hours of leaving the device locked on the stock AT&T ROM but, luckily, you never had to deal with that. :P
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Zardos66:
Got it all figured out.

Rooted the phone and removed a bunch of bloat. Phone is amazing now! I love you XDA.

Ok so Im not trying to change the subject, but does anyone get googles video chat to work without huge lag? I bought my girlfriend a Xperia play right after I got mines & installed video talk (via Video Talk Installer) & also the GTalkEnabler (to enable "Talk" over mobile data) & attempted both video & voice chat. My voice chat worked well over wifi & mobile, but the video chat was almost impossible due to lag on AT&Ts HSPA/Almost kinda 4g & not much better on wifi. With both XPlay's on wifi the video jumped frames and had green or pink pixel boxes & voice was lagged over 5 seconds. This makes the front cam & video chat useless. Whats the deal with this??

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] entropin:
Hi I want to get transmission-daemon running on prime, and I think am getting closer, but I'm completely green to linux so I could be way of :/

I build and installed Arm Ubuntu chroot'ed on my prime and used it to compile the transmission-daemon source, I had to do some fiddling to get the libevent to compile, but I did get the executable up and running in Ubuntu.

If it is running on the arm platform in Ubuntu, it should be possible to get it to run on android right?

Then i transferred the files to android, added the shared libs, moved the files to system/bin/transmission and chmoded to x.

But when i try to run ./transmission-daemon for that dir it tells me that the file dose not exist :/ .. i can see em there, and the file names get suggested to me, but no :/

I have posted the files, if some one wants to have a go at it

transmission-bins.rar

Perhaps you mistyped some of the commands...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
Did you run ldconfig again to 'register' the shared library? Are you sure the shared library is in the LD_PATH?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] entropin:
I certainly did misspell commands along the way, cause as everybody can see English is not my first language.. But I don't see the need to be rude..

Thanks you, you seam to be right, looks like it uses more libs then i thought, will try to make the build more static.

But in theory, a statically linked executable compiled on the tablet, in ubuntu should be able to run right?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Statically linked should work and does work, I've done it (hint: it helps if you statically link the runtime library too; Android doesn't use glibc or libstdc++).

Dynamically linked should work if you have all the libs and make sure the linker can find them. I haven't played much with that.

The differences between Android and chroot on Android, are the runtime environment (which the rutime libraries are apart of unless you _especially_ tell gcc to be static about them).`

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
So this has been bothering me since the first time I flashed a custom rom on my G2x (had this phone since late September), I know that my data speeds suck and that it's common for a custom rom to mess up our phones' data sending/receiving capabilities (using a mobile network that is). So I've been searching, calling technical support, and playing around with my phone for a long time, and I might have just figured it out, so why not share :D

To make it clear, this is for anyone who has 2 SEPARATE APNs (one for internet access and one for MMS), especially wind users, since I'm one. No harm can be done from trying this, if it doesn't work for you, just restore your APNs to default and move on.

So here it goes:

In settings -> wireless & networks -> mobile networks -> access point names -> Wind CA MMS (or whatever your MMS APN is), now change the APN type to <not set> (i.e. delete whatever's there and hit ok) and change Authentication type to None (it's usually <not set> by default) then hit the menu button and save.

What this mainly does is it breaks the link between the internet APN and the MMS APN, so to use one of them you'd have to manually select the relevant one then do what you need to do (i.e. now you have to manually select Wind CA MMS (or whatever your MMS APN is) from the access point names menu, turn data on, send/download your MMS, then do whatever you want after, or go back and select Wind CA (or whatever your internet APN is) to get internet access)

By default the 2 APNs are linked and when you need to use MMS your phone switches to the proper APN, then switches back when you need internet access. I'm guessing my phone's been having a hard time finding it's way to my MMS APN (even with it's dual core processor lol) since the data icon usually disappears as soon as I hit send! So doing this manually is more work but it solves the problem (for me at least, and hopefully for you ;))

I know this sounds like a pain, but I've been able to send and receive MMS at speeds I've never seen before on my phone :eek:

Good luck and don't forget to hit the thanks button whenever appropriate

I wasn't trying to be an ass or anything, sorry dude! I don't use the xda app on devices I usually log on through the browser, so I don't know how the app works! I just thought it was strange that you asked, forgive me if I insulted you in any way.

The thing is, the carrier I'm with has limited coverage in Canada and my area was only recently added plus they used to have one APN for both internet and MMS which worked better but they changed it and it's been giving me problems ever since! But with this fix I can send/receive MMS in seconds now:)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lulzo:
I'm a wind user in waterloo as well. I did notice the phone gets confused sometimes when I try to send a MMS, it'll send it but every once in a while show up in the message screen to resend (over and over again).

Anyway so I tried to change the settings, the phone let me save those settings saying "The APN cannot be empty." Although when I look at the APN, it clearly says <not set> like in your original post...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
It's fine don't worry about it, I should be thanking u for taking the time to try to figure out a solution and posting ur findings. Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
It's not the APN you need to change, it's the APN type, should be the second to last entry in the list, try it out and let me know if it works :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Good_Newz:
And my solution is....

Here is how i fixed my MMS send/receive issue on WIND with cm7..

1. Restore APN to default

2. Change user-agent in Messaging->settings to Android-Mms/2.0 which is the default "Custom" on cm7

3. Enjoy your MMS sending are receiving.

PS. You will still get disconnected when sending MMS.

EDIT: if you are updating your RIL (using getRIL or any other method) to V11H or something other than v20c (CM7 default RIL) change the user-agent in Messaging Messaging->settings to the default on cm7. Otherwise you will not be able to send MMS with the v11H ril.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
Im using Hell Fire Phoenix 1.9 and still need tissues for my issues. Cant reliably receive mms... No problem sending but i tried the couple fixes here none of them seemed to do it. Any other Wind users having the same issue or any ideas?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
Have you tried sending mms to yourself from your phone? or from another wind phone if you have one handy? (to see if you receive them)

My brother and I both have wind's G2x and I haven't had any problems with mms ever since i figured out the fix in the op, but my brother can't seem to receive from iphones especially (even with the fix)!! I guess it varies from one phone to another, or it's sender's phone has issues
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
After f*cking with it for hours and bugging the hell out of my friends (asking to send pictures over and over) I finally got it working by using gosms and filling in the apn settings manually in the app and whamo works great except iPhones.... figures...

Edit: sending mms to yourself is another good way to test it but it always seemed to work sending to myself just not receiving from others

Pin it to Win it.

unable to MMS on Tsugi Rom

hi fellow wind & Xda users, its great to find wind users here.

i would really like to solve this issue as everything else is working for me now, im using Tsugi's final rom ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358724 )and its great however in APN list i have four things listed

(will attach screen shot as well)

-internet (internet.windmobile.ca)

-Wind CA (internet.windmobile.ca)

-MMS (mms.windmobile.ca)

-Wind CA MMS (mms.windmobile.ca)

the first two are selectable , makes sense as i have internet .... also i can not modify any of the above , it says " default apn cannot be modified"

i created two new APN just like the last two but left the type Blank, didn't solve the issue.

what do you guys suggest or what am i doing wrong? how can i manually change those settings? perhaps through root explorer? thanks

EDIT: Also as i didn't have any input in TYPE ( blank) i was able to select the two new entries i created but i wasn't able to send/receive mms, when i added MMS to the type , they became un-selectable like the default mms entries! when i remove the mms type and leave blank i again can select them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
I think the fact that you cannot modify the default APN is a 2.3.3/2.3.4 specific issue, when I first created this thread I was running EB (which is 2.3.7) and had no problem modifying. If I were you, I would reset to default (hopefully you can do that on 2.3.4), Try modifying one more time, if that doesn't work, try a different messaging app like go sms and in MMS settings fill in all the APN information manually, hopefully that will work. Also, (if you haven't tried already) you could install getril from the market and see if your rils match, if not install a recommended one. If none of that works, maybe consider using a different rom, I found that MMS works on MIUI roms without having to apply the fix in the OP, and you can definitely modify the default APN on 2.3.7 roms.

Good luck
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reza416:
thanks jj_z1

i tried everything you mentioned above and i am even running a MIUI rom right now , 2.3.7 with gosms, mms setting manually setup and even tried the OP fix with MIUI but still no luck,

only thing i can think of is when i checked the RILS eventhough it said it matches, it was recommending a different one for me, do you think that could be it? its kinda frustrating lol, i'll also flash to stock now and see if i'll still have the mms problem if not then i guess its the custom roms otherwise i don't know
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
What exactly is the problem you're having? You can't send or receive mms at all? or is it occasional? or is it just one sided (as in you can't send, but can receive, or the other way around)?

This might be a stupid question, and I don't mean anything by it, people just forget the simplest things sometimes! Do you have data enabled when you try to send or download an mms? (it took me a while to find out that I needed data enabled lol)

You can try to do a hard reset, a lot of users find that it works. While the phone is on, pull out the battery, then the sim card, wait at least 30 seconds, then put them back in and try to send something (like a picture) to yourself. Try this at least 3 times just to make sure (unless it works the first time).

Also, if all else fails, using go sms, you can send and download an mms using wifi, I used that for a while until I got my data to work.

If your rils are matching I don't think installing a recommended one would make a difference, the important thing is that they match.

Other than that I honestly don't know what to tell you, it might be an issue specific to your device. The very last thing you can do is restore to stock and go to a wind store and have them either fix it for you or send it in for repair, I'm sure your warranty hasn't expired yet.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reza416:
i havent been able to send or receive any mms for a while now,

i just tried wifi, with wifi bein on i was able to send/receive to myself, however when i pressed sent the data sign appeared beside the wifi sign and i was able to send/receive , is that normal? other than that when only the data is on and i try to send a mms , the data sign disappears and it keeps trying to send , and when it can't send then the data sign re-appears , to me the mms apn doesn't work, can you send me the exact apn settings for both internet and mms ? so that i can match mine.. thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Deleted member 4128896:
It's normal for the data icon to appear next to wifi. With separate APNs the phone is usually connected to the internet one when data is enabled, but when you use mms the phone tries to switch to the mms APN which is (in my opinion) where the phone is failing, that's also why the data icon disappears when you hit send, it's trying to switch from one APN to the other, but fails!! Which kinda sucks. Either way, I'm currently running RG2x-MIUI v2.2.24 and here are my APN settins:

For internet access:

Name: Wind CA

APN: internet.windmobile.ca

Proxy: <Not set>

Port: <Not set>

Username: <Not set>

Password: <Not set>

Server: <Not set>

MMSC: <Not set>

MMS port: <Not set>

MCC: 302

MNC: 490

Authentication type: None

APN type: default,supl

APN protocol: IPv4

For mms:

Name: Wind CA MMS

APN: mms.windmobile.ca

Proxy: <Not set>

Port: <Not set>

Username: <Not set>

Password: <Not set>

Server: <Not set>

MMSC: http://mms.windmobile.ca

MMS port: 8080

MCC: 302

Also, I guess in MIUI there's an auto-Switch option if you have more than one APN, doesn't really matter if it's on or off, doesn't help!

Quick question Ive seen a couple larger capacity batteries 2000mAh and 2430mAh on ebay (not sure if i can post the links, tell me if you want me to) which are the same size as the normal galaxy S batteries, they say that the normal back cover can fit on them. And before i buy them i just wanted to if they have any effect on the phone itself. is it a smart move to buy the bigger battery? i researched and thought of flashing cyanogenmod 7.1 but i read about the battery issues and i just figured why not buy a bigger battery.

Am I going along the right thought process? let me know if im missing something. cheers.

I do think that my original battery was nearing the end of its useful life though (18 months)

I got caught out earlier by getting a so called GOLD 2000 mAh battery that after some research (peeling off the cover and Googling the serial number I found) turned out to be only 750 mAh - buyer beware I suppose!

When you manage to get that thing together i will test drive the hell out of it for you. Windows 7 themed launcher moves up and down. There may be others though so don't quote me on it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
I tried Win 7 Launcher previously but you're only limited to tiles 1x1 or 1x2 & some of the tiles that come preconfigured are locked onto the screen (i.e you can't remove them).

Actually what I'm doing is nothing really more then creating tiles & placing them onto the screen. I wish though that I did know how to create a launcher, I'm just using a pre-existing one, though none have the vertical scrolling feature that I would like.
