[About XDA developers] pulser_g2:
Announcement should now be live across the site.

I think the problem we have here is one of the "me me me" culture. Everyone presumes if they have a problem, it must only affect them.

I saw a good example recently! On Saturday I had a 3G outage for around half an hour. It was the first one in about a year, I'm not going to complain! I expect more outages for network upgrades.

Unfortunately, the customer support forum suddenly became awash with threads from people wanting to know why their data connection was down. We had people demanding an entire month's service due to this short outage. Trust me when I say they don't pay much at all for the service, and it's reasonable to expect the odd couple of minutes downtime. I expect it myself.

Anyway, moral of the story? Their site was full of "omg help me, my data connection is broken", with virtually nobody even looking at previous thread titles. If they had, they'd have seen another 40 threads with various titles relating to lack of 3G or Internet or data...

I don't know if people can't be bothered to read, or what... But it's the same issue here where people just post without even skimming over the previous 3 threads...

[HTC EVO 3D] ArthurIn3D:
the title pretty much says it all, is there a possibility to (somehow) perhaps change the radio or something to enable LTE 4G on my model? i'll do pretty much anything, because i found a cheap contract for lte and its literally 10x faster then hspa+. now that germany is just getting LTE i dont want anybody to go all, "haha you bought your phone at just the wrong moment" so i'm doing pretty much everything to keep it on top, like oc, ics roms (although i prefer leedroid) and pretty much everything else short of building in new processors into my phone. I already bought it at the wrong price (700 euro 6 months ago- it is 200 now) and i want to have LTE. i'll do anything except for something where there is a very real possibility of brick.
[HTC EVO 3D] leerage:
Take a permanent marker and write 4G LTE on the back of the phone.

In all seriousness, there is no 4G LTE radio in the phone. Sorry.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Simple answer: No

Why? You shouldn't even have to ask.
[HTC EVO 3D] ArthurIn3D:
why not? its not a hardware capability.
[HTC EVO 3D] ArthurIn3D:
and anyway, how do you make an LTE phone? you must be able to somehow repeat the process, why would you not?
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Ummm...yes it is.

---------- Post added at 11:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM ----------

Not sure...ask HTC, Motorola, and the other phone manufacturers. An LTE Radio is not what you are thinking a Radio is. You are probably thinking about when people say they flash radios. These radios that you flash is the software that run the hardware radios in your phone. LTE, WIMAX, 3G, are all hardware radios.
[HTC EVO 3D] ArthurIn3D:
ok, i see... well then. but you are sure it is a hardware capability? I mean, what part of the phone would be able to pick up ONLY one kind of signal?
[HTC EVO 3D] bombader:
Would it EVEN BE POSSIBLE to emulate the hardware required in software?
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
A while ago, when sprint announced 4G lte, I contacted htc directly asking about the capability of doing this, even if someone had to program it. They said there is no way to do it. It is missing the physical radio for lte. There you have it.
[HTC EVO 3D] bombader:
Cause I'm about to flash over to Metro PCS and 4G would be really sweet cause I didn't even get it from sprint their 4G signal dropped off directly across the street and 3 houses over from my house seriously.
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
There is nothing to explain why it won't work. Why doesn't GSM handsets not work on CMDA? Because it is a different technology, different hardware. Why can't you pick up AM stations with an FM only radio? Becuase it is different hardware. There is nothing that anybody can do that can turn our 3G/WIMAX chips into LTE enabled chips. End of story.
[HTC EVO 3D] bombader:
Of course they would tell you that they would want you to buy their new dedicated handsets if you call somebody at Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo and ask them if you can play one of their competitors games on their system their gonna tell you the exact same thing. Now I also understand some things are impossible your never gonna be able to emulate a blue ray drive with a cd drive if the hardware simply can't cut it obviously but this is just a frequency filling the air, right? couldn't you just flash a radio to look at that specific frequency (unless the phone just flat out can't pick up that frequency) then have the 1.2ghz dual core do the rest even if it took all the phones resoures?
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
Wow....just wow. Mods really need to close this thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
Hey guys! So here is the problem. I flashed the ICS 4.3. I couldnt get any signal. And i tried few more. But still nothing. I searched a little bit and found that somebody is having the same problem.

So now i am on VillainROM 3.0

With kernel 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine

Baseband version is I9100XXKG3

Android version 2.3.5

Tried another sim card 2.. But nothing changed.

Waiting for your help!

And Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
No help guys?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
First thing, check what model phone you have on the sticker under the battery. Second check to see if your imei has changed.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Try a different modem. And try waiting for more than 2 hours after posting for an answer. This is a development forum, not a tech support forum. People answer questions of their own free will on their own time. I know

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
Model: GT-I9100

How can i check the IMEI?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
Tried already a few.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
The IMEI hasnt changed.

Btw. It shows that the Signal streangth is -111 dBM 1 asu. Dont know what does that mean.. :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
So it matches what is on the label under your battery? It can sometimes get changed to a "generic" IMEI.

Means you are getting SOME signal, but it's crappy. What does it say for everything else on that screen? Network? Mobile Network Type? etc?

Also, you said you tried "a few" modems. Which ones? There are dozens. Some work better for some locations/countries than others. Where are you located? Can make a difference.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
Yes,it matches.

Now it is -103 till -111 dBM and from 2 asu till 8 or 9 asu..

Network: Unknown

Type: Unknown:0

And i dont know how to translate that but it shows : GPRS:1

And it shows that the state of service is : Not working

I used those who were working before. The leaked ICS modems.. That worked for me. Other i dont remember.

And Im from Latvia.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Thought you said you were back on VillianROM?

I'd flash back to a stock Gingerbread firmware. As stated, any ICS based ROM (as of right now, anyways) is a leak, or built off of a leak.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
I was. I tried to flash to the newest hoping mbe that would fix.

I flashed back to the stock but nothing changed.

This I9100XILA3_I9100XWKI1_I9100OXIKK1. Is that good?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
What version of stock?

Also, you didn't happen to stick something into what looks like an external antenna port above the battery, did you? I've heard that breaks the antenna.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pecka40:
I dont think so.. Could i somehow check if i did?

This I9100XILA3_I9100XWKI1_I9100OXIKK1. Is that good?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You'd know if you did.

Should've worked fine. Hmm. I'm out of ideas.

[General Questions and Answers] asiful:
Hi,

I am looking for an API that can read the current ambient rssi with Wifi interface even if there is no AP in the range. Current APIs only returns rssi for an associated AP. How can I add this API in a build? Any direction would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hossen
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
What is an ambient RSSI?

If there is no AP in range, whose signal strength do you want to read?
[General Questions and Answers] asiful:
Even if there is no AP, there is some noise signal available (ambient noise). I am working on a project where I need to read the ambient noise value.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] ranger4740:
Rssi stands for relitive signal strength indication. It is used to measure the received signal strength in a radio receiver.

So what they are looking for is a way to intercept the signal strength that the wifi is receiving from the wireless router and be able to show it on the screen.

Oh and by ambiant noise they are talking about the background noise from other transmitters that might be using the same radio frequencys that the wifi is using.

sent from my legend, currently using extream legend fuse™
[General Questions and Answers] ranger4740:
This might be more appropriate to do research on radio transmitions rather than apps on a phone, for example, set yourself up with radio scanners and antennas that cover the radio frequency's that wifi uses.

P. S. I am a licenced radio ham as well as playing with my phone. :D

[General Questions and Answers] wofanli:
Any moving on?

Hi, guys. I have almost the same problem.

I am working on a project which need to read signal strength in BCM4313.

I try to measure the wireless signal strength ( Adding noise and normal signal up) in the environment constantly. The sample rate is 1000 Hz, for example.

I was working on CC2420 chip-set (which supports 802.15.4). RSSI in CC2420 can does that thing. So I just wonder does RSSI in WiFi has the same functionality.

So I try to dig into the source code of driver , I still can't figure out how to do that.

Thanks for any help.

Best,

Nathan
[General Questions and Answers] wofanli:
I found the answer

After reading the source code of the driver for several days, I finally found the method.

There is no general API to do this job. We should dig into driver to obtain ambient rssi. So this is product dependent.

My NIC is Broadcom BCM4313.

I first download the driver from the website of Broadcom. However they don't provide interface to access the hardware. It cost me a lot of time to figure out this.

Then I turn to the open source driver: brcmsmac. It helps.

In the function wlc_phy_noise_sample_request(...) , in /phy/phy_cmn.c folder, I found the example for how to read ambient rssi.

I was on the Market and I came across this new launcher. The video is unreal. The price is crazy @$17, especially with a number of the functions in the video not working at the moment. I just wanted to see if anyone was willing to give this a try, and if they were able to get it to work on the Atrix. I sent the dev an e-mail to ask if it is compatible. I have read that there are numerous amounts of FCs associated with this launcher.

At any rate, take a look at this video.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] justin11141:
Haha 17$? For a launcher? What are you smoking?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] elbermu:
To expensive to buy, IMO..I don't know why the sell that too expensive, an people may think: "well is their app, they may ask whatever they want" but for example SPB Shell, $15 and a 100,000 downloads, if they drop their price to $5 they may need to sell 3 times to reach their goal, but for a luncher like that they may do it quickly because lots of users wants to give a try.

$17 dollars? No way.

This launcher is absolutely freaking amazing! :eek:

It is the first launcher ever for Android, and I am not exaggerating, that has iPhone kind of smoothness. :eek:

The irony is that this launcher has all those fancy 3D transitions and animations and it's still absolutely perfectly silky smooth throughout.

While simple basic launchers like ADW or LP still get laggy around the edges at times.

This just goes to show that we don't need epic new quad core hardware for our phones, we need devs that know how to optimize for the hardware we already have.

Tegra 2 is more than enough to run anything currently on Android without issues.

Kudos to the devs for the professionalism and their hard work. This really is an amazing smoothest-ever launcher. :eek:

okay. i've dumped adw forever. this is the smoothest thing i have ever used. adw was very smooth until my battery got low (i have setcpu set to underclock processor to about 60% when battery is low). then i noticed a small framerate drop. not bad. but noticable. tsf doesn't do that. i have yet to see even the tiniest of lag. it's SO good. can't wait for future updates!:D highly recommended.

It's a very nice launcher with features that I might use.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Mustkeg:
Too expensive to try out. Longer refund period would bei appreciated.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] bllix:
Hesitating on this one, and not simply because of the price tag. Based on the screen shots, it just doesn't look like a big deal. Maybe there's a whole bunch of awesome customizations that I'm not seeing. This is where the price tag matters; I'm not gonna pay that much just to find out. :)

I've used GO and ADW launchers, and SBF shell. SBF is a tad cheaper than TSF, and pretty slick (i.e. worth paying for). However, it's probably worth mentioning that I ended up switching back to GO. Not sure if I simply got used to it, or if I'm more of a shortcut person than a widget person. Maybe it's just the dev in me talking, but flipping through 76996422 screens to view information that will make me want to open the app anyway, feels like a chore.

And now I've managed to make myself curious about TSF. :rolleyes: Stay tuned, I may jump the gun.

All the features are demoed in the video. The thing is, many of them are not available yet, since the launcher is in development stage.

Was trying to use ninjamorph to replace my H to 4G icons, then I chanced upon 2 icons of different color, grey and blue with each named stat_sys_data_connected_h and stat_sys_data_fully_connected_h respectively, is there any significant difference between this or I could just replace the blue one to use for my device?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _Dennis_:
Grey = data but not connected to Google services (or no data)

Blue = connected to Google services.

The icons tell you when you have a good connection for things like contacts and bookmark sync basicly. It won't change the function if your rom if you make them all grey or all blue.
