[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silberpfeil3110:
The last days I was playing a little bit with the density on my phone. At first you want to know which ROM I'm using. > CM9 latest build. I would like to set my density to 178 or also to 170, these are densities, the phone can show without a blurred screen, or blurred icons. Everything works fine and looks bombastic! But the problem is, that the phone.apk keeps crashing.

Everything is working until a density of 190. Below this value, phone.apk crashes everytime you start a call, or are called.

I know this problem is not new, but other threads are not answered and very old.

So... Anyone knows, whats the problem? Why it is. And how we could fix it?

I will try to disable compatibility mode in spare parts, but I don't think that it will work.

Anyone knows a workaround or maybe has a modded phone apk for ics?

Thanks in Advance!

EDIT: As I thought, compatibility mode won't change anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
I don't know how to solve your problem man,but I suggest you give exDialer a go.It's as smooth,functional and cool-looking(even has an ICS theme available) as the ICS dialer.It'd make for a good alternative until you find the solution. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supermult:
i'm using 185 on cm9 and phone.apk is working great for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moorecp:
The problem is that it isn't the dialer that crashes, but InCallScreen. exDialer still uses the default InCallScreen, so it still crashes.

I believe it breaks once you go below 182. If you were to drop your density to 180, you'd see the crashes, too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suicidus:
hi,

i read very often about reducing density from twohundred and xxx to one hundred and xxx.

but nobody explained, whats the advantage of reducing this.

can somebody explain to me please? :)

Hi,

I was thinking about buying a second MIFI device and I have a couple of old windows mobile devices (TYTN 2) stuck in the cupboard gathering dust and i thought hey some clever person must be able to bake a MIFI ROM for these devices to make them really useful.

Its a shame that thousands of these are discarded and the same people discarding them go out and buy brand new MIFI devices for their wifi ipads and laptops when they could recyle these to give them similar functionality for nothing.

We have a microsd card for a bit of LAN storage as with the MIFI .. anyone interested or is it time to bin windows mobile devices completely

I have to say though I have never seen WPA wifi tetheringon a kaiser :-(

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PoXFreak:
Wifi tethering on a Kaiser is completely doable and has been for some time now, running Android.

Drivers and such have been a bugger to get (or make from scratch), but I can tether my Kaiser via USB or WIFI and use my mobile network for internet.

I think WM6.0 allowed sharing the mobile data connection, I just never tried it on my own device while 6.0 was still on it.

P.S.: I will take those Kaisers off your hands for a partly donation...lol.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Hi dudes.

I have a DHD fully rooted etc...

Quick question.

Can I flash a ROM from ROM Manager or should I always go through recovery?

Cheers dudes.

Greg.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arknailed7754:
Rom managers fine as it'll take the phone to recovery anyway..the advantages of rom manager before you flash are options such as wiping davlik..data etc
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Cheers dude.

So in your opinion doing it through ROM Manager may actually be the better way?

Greg.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pop Tarantula:
It's not so much better, just simpler. Although Touch Recoveries have made all that scrolling with Vol buttons a thing of the past so even less advantage now.

You can wipe things before reboot to Rec, or do it all in Recovery. Choice is always good :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guandms:
in my opinion the best recovery is :

4EXT Recovery Control

read about it and try it ...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arknailed7754:
Ill agree there the touch recovery is pretty cooo and you can theme it

+1 for looking into it.

Yep rom manager is easier in simplicity I would say but both have options. The advantage if rm is maybe just a bit more automated
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
OK. Cheers guys, some useful info here. :-)

What prompted me to post this is that I tried to flash an ICS ROM last week from CWM recovery.

Now I cheat a little and flash a full_wipe.zip before flashing a ROM, just to make the process of wiping a bit less tedious.

But the full_wipe.zip didn't work, so I performed a recovery.

(I learned the hard way that 5 mins spent doing a nandroid backup is worth its weight in gold)

It's worked with all my previous flashes, the only difference is that I have now installed CWM Recovery Touch.

This was my first try using it to flash.

To my absolute shame, I'm unsure of the sequence of manually wiping the various parts before flashing a ROM.

Hence why I used full_wipe.zip and why I enquired if using ROM Manager was a viable way.

Can anyone please advise of the manual sequence.

Cheers guys.

Greg Draven.
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Well yes i do post a lot in the q+a because i am a noob but im in need of help yet again......does ANYBODY have a rom file or anything that isnt a RUU file that is completely stock? it can be branded as well.
[LG Nitro HD] sh4rex:
What are you guys using for wifi tether? I can't get barnacle or wifi tether to work. I see the hotspot but cannot connect. I am rooted and running a custom rom.
[LG Nitro HD] S1XXV:
There is a file that can be edited to enable the built in tethering option. It's a simple change from 1 to 0 though right now I can't remember what it was that I changed. If you want to do this let me know and I can look it up. You will need to purchase an app sqlite to edit the database.
[LG Nitro HD] GordonOSU:
I use wifi-tether and it works fine. not available in the market. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether. You will also need to allow installation of non-market applications in settings under applications
[LG Nitro HD] gtharea:
Another way to enable the built in tethering without any carrier annoyances is to go into the hidden menu of the phone. Install an app called Any Cut. Run it and create a new shortcut to 'connectivity.' said shortcut will appear on your home screen. Open the and uncheck 'entitlement mode.' reboot phone and you're set. Both wifi and usb tethering work without paying extra.
[LG Nitro HD] leegoon84:
Thanks, I have been having issues with builtin tether and other tethering software on the market. ( I just gaveup)

at first I saw your post and went tot the market and downloaded the app (version on the market was 2.0.7)

and it failed and didn't work.

followed your link on google and tried the latest beta.

it works like charm

thanks!!!!

Have you tried unchecking the entitlement box in the hidden menu?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
Hi

I have a Huawei u8800 with a rooted stock ROM(thats what its called when its the ROM that came with the phone right?) 2.2.1. It seems that sometimes it doesn't find the apps from my sdcard, the apps i have as shortcuts only show as green and white things and when i try clicking on them it says i should restart my skin(GoLauncher EX). But it seems like its only the apps the phone doesnt find not the sd card itself. I can see how much space it is on the card in the settings and how much that is free, and it also remembers what skin i use on my beautiful widget's home widget. This only happens most of the times tho. Sometimes after ive rebooted it suddenly all is fine. I've tryed to put my sd card into another phone and that worked perfectly and i tryed to put another sd card into my phone and that worked fine to. So i have no idea where the problem is. The times it doesnt find the sd card i cant choose to use mass-storage when i plug it in my computer either. I't can find the sd card tho if i boot into recovery(i have CWN 5 installed) and choose mount USB storage and plug it to the computer with USB i suddenly find the sd card on the computer but when i reboot it again it doesnt work. So i have no idea it its the SD card that doesnt work, the SD card reader or if its a software problem.... I also have randow reboots. As you see im totally lost:)

Any help would be appreceated!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Hi theminikiller,

This is a note bug of Huawei U8800 / U8800 Pro.

Sometimes the external sdcard is not correctly mounted at the bootstrap and if you have installed application on your external sdcard, you cannot open them.

In my case I have installed Sygic GPS Navigation and maps are stored on the external sdcard. Sometimes it happens that my U8800Pro doesn't mount the sdcard and Sygic, of course, asks me to download again maps.

This bug is not fixed and the only workaround is to reboot Android.

The simple action that you reboot in recovery is always a "reboot".

So if you meet again the bug, it's not a must to enter into recovery mode but you can simply reboot.

I don't know if Froyo has a reboot entry in the power menu (holding the power button), but you can download and install an interesting apk named AN Reboot.

With this application (very light and fast) you can reboot in a short time.

Anyway, since you have this bug, please have a look here at my discussion where there is a poll: please vote! :)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:
Thank you for the reply!

It didnt help rebooting for me, does it help every time i reboot or do i have to try a few times? This is probobly a stupid question but what is apk? xD i tryed googling AN Reboot but didnt find anything so if you could give me a link that would be usefull.

I dont know if it is any connection between it but this happened to me the same day as i upgraded the google marked to google play.

Have you tryed to factory reset the phone? If not im thinking about trying that. I was thinking about sending the phone to the shop where i bought it to see if they could fix it. Or isnt this a fixable problem? Well if they cant fix it ill get a new phone so its a win win situation for me :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
An apk file is an application, usually downlodable from Google Market.

AN Reboot is still on Google Maket, but I can provide a link for you, here:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] elonus:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DiKeJ:
Hi there all, I'm back again :). Maybe somebody knew that after my departure after DX4 relase I made DX5 and 6. The problem is, DX7 is coming for about week maybe, so no need to support DX5 and DX6, but wanted to share this for you, if you want me again of course. Tell me what you think, link will be for ROMs and addons, maybe a lit bit description, no instructions etc. cause it's stock based with 2.3.4 port, so you know what to do, always the same :). DX7 will be normal topic, like DX4 etc., so you need to just wait! Okey, so who want to links?

Update:

LOOK ON SECOND PAGE - LINKS FOR 5 AND 6!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DiKeJ:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ScarletBrazil:
Welcome back D!

Wow, in one week DX7 will be available? Great!.

1 - Get out of this Xperia S thing. All roms LOOKS like the same. Dont do that.

2 - Put long press kill.

Take care!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hamodi:
welcome back

and i agree too with ScarletBrazil

there are too many Rom around with the Xperia S

so maybe doing something diffrent will be better

miui style + stock app maybe .. or mixing Rom
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DiKeJ:
Sh*t, guys, DX5 and 6 looks like X S, so maybe for 7 you want S theme too, but like addon? I don't like (and don't know much) graphic edits/improvements. Maybe someone can provide me some good theme, to make it standard in new DX?

BTW, one week is only a first word - maybe it can take a little more :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kenectd:
I actually prefer the Xperia S look very much. Anything is fine as long as it's smooth and lag free :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] acerulz:
its ok dude make a zip file for ppl who wants X S looks else give it as default launcher with XS apps ... mainly looking forward to free RAM thats what m interested ATM as u r rom usually has the one advantage !!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DiKeJ:
Dzięki za powyższe słowa, ale chyba mówisz o DiXperii4, skoro twierdzisz, że nie było przykładowo dialera z Xperii S. Byłeś na moim forum w poszukiwaniu DX5 albo 6? Nowsze są dużo lepsze od 4.

Thanks for good words, buddy, but I think you're talking about DX4, cause you said for example that ROM doesn't have Xperia S dialer. Were you on my forum to search DX5 or 6? They're much better than 4.

Cheers. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rzuku90:
Niestety nie byłem... Nie jestem też zwolennikiem instalowania oprogramowania kilka razy w tygodniu. mam DX4 i do tej pory nic nie było lepszego... ale skoro mówisz że jest w drodze DX7 to poczekam :)

ive had one of these for almost 2 years. works fine intermitently. some times i just have to unplug it. also does not work if you torrent alot as it uses your broadband internet. if your running vuze or utorrent, you get terrible latency on the phone i.e. 15 second delay on voice.
[Epic 4G General] LORDFIRE00:
thankyou very much for that information. its good to know.
[Epic 4G General] danipoak:
I have had one for 2 years now and honestly it has been flawless. The only thing I had to do was change the settings so that only certain phones could connect to it. My internet connection blows so if the neighbors hook up to it then I can't watch Netflix.
[Epic 4G General] codest3r:
Thanks for the new details. I've had one for a few months now and it rocks as long as my Internet connection is up. I put it behind my router/firewall and have the router doing QoS priority on anything from it.
[Epic 4G General] PythonFanTN:
That's fine if the issue is at home, but unfortunately this doesn't help people with signal issues in their work environment. :/
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Yea, had one of these for a while. Its . . . ok. It does what its supposed to most of the time, but then sometimes you will just not receive calls and your cell will only be able to call landlines. And then sometimes when landlines call you it goes straight to voicemail. And then you call customer service and they walk through 80 steps with you accomplishing nothing. But most of the time it works. If you start having issues with calls or data though, before commenting on a rom or kernel you flashed, turn off the airrave and make sure its not that damn thing causing it.
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:
Didn't really work for me. I just have it sitting disconnected at the moment.
[Epic 4G General] MeetFace:
Worked OK for me. I too suffered from missed calls occasionally, but more often from text messages not sending/receiving. This happens a lot at my dad's house where he has one.
[Epic 4G General] danipoak:
Interesting responses. I must really be in the minority this. Only time I have calls go straighght to voicemail is when I am at school and that's because the engineering building might as well be a bomb shelter. No missed calls ever that I am aware of either.
[Epic 4G General] monke30butt:
I have had one for a long while. Mine causes more trouble than it's worth to me. I just leave it unplugged now. These units are EXTREMELY sensitive when it comes to the internet connection. Anything less than prefect QOS score causes big problems with this unit. Which is funny because my Vonage phone has no problems at all & plugged into the same router & parked right next to the Airave. Just for reference I have a 10MB/s download internet service with a transceiver on my roof as there is no dsl or cable in my area (I live in the sticks), but I am very close to the tower in town (within 2 miles I think). Speeds are good & VOIP Qos scores are good most of the time as reflected by the Vonage working fine, but for some reason the Airave refuses to work right 85% of the time (so it stays unplugged).

I dont know what others situations are but before I had mine I couldn't make calls or use data in my house . Now always have full signal bars and data is faster at my home than anywhere else.

AWESOME! I have horrible sprint coverage inside my house - often drop calls or have to go outside to see any kind of signal bars - I followed your link - read up on the Airave and then called the number - started the call by complaining about how bad coverage is inside my house - I have three lines (my wife, my phone and my niece) all of us have to go outside to make calls, blah blah blah - -long story short - no problem - Airrave device ordered - no charge - no monthly fees - (except the federal goverment charges for about 1.95 per month or something)

From the ad and what they say when you call - it will boost both phone service and data - 3g - with 5000 square feet of coverage.

Can't wait to get it - should arrive by next thursday - THanks for the tip - I really appreciate it - when I have it installed I will make sure to let you know how it works.

Got mine yesterday, very simple to install -- plug into router, plug into wall, wait ~20 mins for it to initialize via broadband and find itself via GPS. After that, took the phone a bit to realize it was there and bada-bing you're good to go.

Doesn't have as much range toward the back of my house as I'd like, and I don't have a platial estate. However, it covers most of the house and it sure is nice to have some haul azz speeds for a change. I guess this is what 3G feels like on an unloaded network, haha! :D
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
try changing the range settings via sprint.com
[Epic 4G General] a454nova:
I have 2 of them, they work with no problems normally. One will acted up once in a while but my buddy just resets and its good. Its on a slow crappy DSL line too tho. The other one is on a high speed Cable and never has issues. Forward ports correctly and you should run good. Filter just your numbers is highly recommended, even more if you set the range up. Oh and I have never been questioned when I asked for one. Never paid a cent too. If you have bad service, this will make your day!
