[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NumbGreenThumb:
I find myself going to other places around Europe once in a while and once I enter a new country it takes forever to find a list of available networks. This is the case regardless if the phone has been on (i.e. train travel) or has been in airplane mode.

This is the second Andorid phone I've had and I've always had this problem. Does anyone else experience this? My old Sony would immediately find a new network when I entered a new country. I'd love to know if there's a way to fix this.

Just for a bit more info, the situation is always like this:

1. Lose home network connection or exit airplane mode

2. Search for available networks (usually takes 5 minutes)

3. Search doesn't turn up anything, so re-try (again, another 5 minutes)

4. If that doesn't work, reboot and try again...

Eventually all is well, but the whole process is annoying.

Thanks for any guidance.

[HTC Desire S] Edmerf:
Hi all. I'm new in the forum and i found something really strange with my phone. my desire s is unlocked from htcdev and rooted using super one click.

The strange thing is that i'm not able to flash something like cwm or a boot.img from the phone itself. i can just flash them from pc using fastboot method everytime. i've installed several roms but i can't boot them up because of this problem. Also i tried to flash cwm from rom manager and it said that cwm is installed successfully; but i couldn't get in the cwm.

Now i need some help with this problem. How can i flash my phone without fastboot method? Thanks so much!!
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Do not unlock with HTCDev.com

Downgrade and S-OFF instead - there are 2 guides in the Index
[HTC Desire S] Edmerf:
thanks. but is it normal that i'm not being able to flash boot.img from the phone itself with using htcdev method? sorry for being a noob.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
The HTCDev unlocks the system, boot (kernel) and recovery partitions for custom modifications. S-ON means that your Radio and Bootloader (hboot) partitions remain locked/secured. But when in recovery (when flashing a ROM) or OS mode the kernel partition remain locked. Boot (kernel) is unlocked only when the phone is in bootloader. Then you can use the fastboot flash command to write on it.

This is wise IMO, because is preventing the people that are not familiar with the details to play. So only the ones that know what means partition, kernel, security flag, etc. to use this method. Or the ones that are reading this forum ;)
[HTC Desire S] Edmerf:
ok. i want to ask one more question: Will something happen in the future if i flash boot.imgs and any other thing using the fastboot method?

Anyone? I paid $40 for mine from BestBuy, I like it. The material is nice, seams look strong and they will last a long time. Only real complaint is that the tablet is put in...upside down. I think it would work good for games so you're not hitting the volume or power button. I know when I play Dead Space and i'm running for my life, sometimes I hit those buttons.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] mudvaynemk:
I bought one from Best Buy for the same amount but it was made by Targus. I really like it and the tablet doesn't go in to it upside down. It is really well made and so far has stood up to me being pretty rough with it.

Hi,

My first thread so thought I'd say hello and share my experience - I am a noob so please be gentle!

I've recently purchased a SXE (o2 Uk) and Flashed, Rooted, Updated and now im running ARHD 6.2.1 ICS

First impressions are very impressed with it and it's claims on battery life are almost as impressive as actually experience.

Im using a Sensation gold 2430mAh Extended battery (Purchased from Amazon.co.uk) and my stats are attached. This usage is over a 14hr day and still had power left... Overall very impressed!

My usage is medium, WiFi on, sync mail/Friends Stream etc when I use the phone, texts, and a bit of browsing either on Chrome or the market. I'd say it is no more or less than an average users experience

Let me know your thoughts...

Alright, I decided to give the community a chance to test what we have in a very small, easily controlled group. Before I start with the information:

THIS IS NOT JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT THE DAMN ROM! THIS IS A TEST FOR A REASON! DO NOT BUG US WITH STUPID APPLICATIONS OR YOU WILL BE DENIED! Thank you :)

Alright, now what we are looking for is testers who have experience with android custom firmware (meaning, you have another android device and can typically solve your own problems) It's also mandatory that you don't leak the build. If you do, expect consequences.

If you are not qualified, DO NOT APPLY. I assure you, we will only choose who we think is right. Not you just because you are tired of stock. This will ensure a better experience for you in the release.

Only 10 people will be accepted.

Anyway, the link to the form to fill out is here:

I signed up as well. I've always loved installing custom firmwares on what would otherwise be locked-down devices, even if the firmware only comes in the form of a risky alpha, so it's about time I started doing it constructively and using my experiences to report bugs and whatnot.

Side note: I also really like how you guys are down to earth and listening directly to the community; homebrewers and hackers in other communities seem to be way more elitist and have weird god complexes. It's refreshing that you guys just straight up say "If you have any ideas, let me know. If you want to discuss the matter more directly, PM me."

Thinking of dropping out, the same I thought when I was in 1st year but I gave that thought away thinking that its just a new place, I will get suited to it. But now I am fairly sure, that trying to do something which I am not interested in will not land me anywhere good.

That's impossible. School have to allow to let you switch majors, unless you live in commie cuba or something. Go back, take easy classes for now, don't overwhelm yourself. My school kicked me out due to low grades. I'm starting a different school in 2 weeks, and I will have to waste 1.5 hours on the subway one way, but I need to get my GPA up so then I can write an appeals to my old school. So just go back, and take classes that won't be too hard to understand.

I was at uni in the mid 90s and after a car accident in my first year, went back to start again.

About this time of year, a housemate came home high on drugs and attacked me, so I decided to leave uni, I wasn't enjoying it and back then with loans of only £1000 it was costing too much to live (not like students now with their generous loans).

I was unemployed for 2 weeks, had to pay Hampshire county council the small grant I had back.

However, times have changed, there were better employment prospects at the time, how are yours now?

There's nothing worse than making a mistake that you can't take back. Especially one that could change your life forever. I'd stay the course and see if you can't work something out with your tutors to get on top of the situation.

I was in a similar position several years ago. I've just finished my 2nd year of uni and I've completely lost interest in studying. My poor grades led to me being suspended for a semester.

I seriously considered dropping out to pursue a career in IT via A+ Certification. Anyway, after several long discussions with my family, I decided put my head down and graduate from uni first before making any further career decisions.

It was the best decision I ever made. I became a more mature and disciplined person through the experience. And I'm able to use it my advantage during job interviews. I'm able to say things like:

"I don't give up easily when faced with hardships. I hit a snag in the road during university but I'm able to push through it with my determination. My immaturity early-on cost me dearly in terms of average GPA. But if you just look at my grades over my last several semesters, those high marks represent my growth and my true potential."

If you drop out now, it would be hard to answer the inevitable interview question: "I see here on your CV that you've attended so-and-so university for 2 years. What happened there?"
