[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Can anyone tell me of an app whereby when I call someone and they're on the phone, my phone tells me. I know Samsung's Touchwiz does this. HTC doesn't do it with Sense though and I'm running CM which doesn't do it either.
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Bump?
[HTC Incredible S] Kams84:
AFAIK, Android does not have that feature. Samsung and Sony add that by themselves
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
It actually sucks to think that something so basic is patent encumbered. I'm guessing that's why I'm also yet to find an app to provide this missing functionality.
[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
Doesn't it beep faster for you when you call someone that's talking to someone else?
[HTC Incredible S] vieose:
And if someone ports a Sony Ericsson Neo Rom to IncS? Same qualcomm and adreno. Same chip :D
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Nope, if I call someone and they're on a call, my phone just rings normally leaving me none the wiser.
[HTC Incredible S] Splux:
Lulz, that's really odd. For me it beeps faster and hangs up 2 sec later...
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
In terms of non-Android I know Nokia does and I was surprised to be told that Apple doesn't. Am really quite gutted that this can't be done with a simple app.
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
It works on my Inc s. I've enabled call wait from my service provider, so when I'm on a call and someone else calls, I get a series of beeps with the other caller number or contact data flashed on my phone. I just have to accept, reject or ignore the second call and the first caller gets into hold... its all available on your phones too, you only need to enable it in call settings and of course, with your service provider too
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
That's the wrong way round. I have mine enabled for people calling me. But what I'm referring to with this thread is a notification to say that when I call someone else, I'm alerted to the fact that they're already on a call.
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
@Sabret00the

Wouldn't that be a function that the person you're calling, needs to enable with his service provider? I usually get a recorded message saying that the person you are calling is on another call... wait for him to respond, or hang up & dial later. The phone displays number busy... isn't that so? Or then I'm confused....
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Nope. It's a standard feature for Samsung's, Sony's and Nokia. If I ring from my IncS and someone is on the phone, it just rings normally. If I ring from a Samsung it states on screen that "the person you're dialling is on a call".
[HTC Incredible S] sohojmanush:
there are tons of threads and requests for this feature,like sms delivery report.Its a manufacture dependent feature.As far as i know it is called "gsm supplimentary service" n i guess on this situation when the user is busy on a call the gsm server sends a code to the phone n the phone then shows a toast notification.All nokia ,samsung and sony ericsson phone have that feature and htc , motorola and iphone doesnt have that :( I dont know it can be done by an app. may be .. by somethin in the "telephony.app" ... who knows since there is no developer interest in this and

the sms status report
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Are these features still available on CyanogenMod Samsung's? Or is it something you only see on stock ROMs?
[HTC Incredible S] sohojmanush:
sorry dont know about CM ,bt all samsung and sony phone has it ,even those dumb phone's with monocromes :D . dont mind weither it is stock or community rom.i jst want this enabled on my phone so that i dont became an annoying person by calling and calling people while they talking on their phone(cuz my phone is unable to notify :( ) check this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=787706&page=2 might help..idk
[HTC Incredible S] zezoka:
What do you want? Some kind of beep?
[HTC Incredible S] sabret00the:
Yup, something like a beep and a toaster that says "Your call is being held".
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brieuwers:
Hi there,

I finaly learned myself to build a kernel from source.

I just got one problem I cant figure out.

The sensor for screen rotation just wont work.

I hope there is a dev out there willing to help.

I build the kernel from samsung source with samsung_p4_defconfig.

Everything else is working fine.

I hope someone can tell my what I should do to make the sensor work.

Greetz Br
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brieuwers:
Problem solved.

Seems that the p7500 source code was not working on my device.

Now I build the kernel with source code SCH-I905 and the sensor is working.

Finally my kernel build is completly fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Hey folks, need a bit of help here.

I have a weird problem. I took my TF off of charge a few hours ago and laid it on the table. I just came back to it now, and its on the "ASUS - Inspiring Innovation. Persistent Perfection" and stuck. The progress indicator is about half way around.

I press and held the power button for 5-10 seconds, then 30 seconds, then a minute, no change. I press and held the Vol- and power for 10/30/60 and no change. It just won't budge from this screen way now.

Is there a way to forcefully power off the tablet? Or do I have to wait for the battery to drain out?

It was working fine before this, and I didn't make any changes recently except ran a few application updates last night. Any suggestions?

I'm rooted with Revolution HD rom on it. I can't get into recovery, and no response from ADB. Its just stuck where it is.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
So you can't even get into recovery with the manual button combo?

What about your serial number? NVFlash compatible?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
I can't get any response out of it all. Serial number on the bottom is B60K**, its nvflash compatible (I did a restore back to stock with nvflash not too long ago), but, I can't get it to "reboot" at all to put it into APX mode.

I'm assuming once the battery dies and the thing shuts off I may have a few more options, but right now I'm stuck here.

Edit: Here is the screen its stuck on (progress ring at the bottom is frozen)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Holding just the power button should eventually power it off

Sure the power button is working ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Well, I guess at this point I can't gaurentee 100% that its working. However, the power button was always working until this happened. I haven't had any other issues other than the deep sleep issue with ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tegezee:
Yeah holding down your power button should turn it off I had this happen to me like a week ago.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theemstra:
Thats working fo me, but it keeps coming back every day, very annoying.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
I wish it was that easy for mine, no matter how long I hold the power button, nothing happens. I'm sitting here now waiting for the battery to drain out. Will probably take a few days seeing that I just finished charging it when this happened.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Just to give an update, I left it for overnight, and when I woke up this morning, the battery had finally died. So, I plugged in the charger, and the tablet booted up fine.

Power button, volume buttons, etc, work fine. I have no idea what caused this problem, but i'm glad its working now.

Should I go back to stock to be safe? Or am I fine with ARHD?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8milerd:
My t101 has done the exact same thing. I woke up an hour ago from a nite of charging and now it is stuck at the ASUS loading logo. It was at first loading, the wheel spinning, then it stopped. I can not turn it off nor enter recovery . It cannot do anything. adb will not recognize it at all. I havent tried nvflash.

Rooted & running cwm.

Any suggestions or am I sol until it manually dies form no juice?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Sounds like the exact same issue I had. Nvflash wasn't possible for me either because when it was stuck on the loading screen with the spinner frozen, I couldn't power it off, enter recovery, or anything.

I have no suggestions other than wait for the battery to die. My only fear was that the logo and spinner being lit on the screen for such a long period of time would cause some sort of burn-in. But, luckily, screen technology these days that doesn't seem to be an issue. Mine suffered no ill-effects.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8milerd:
Thank you for the help. I tried NVFlash and it was a no go as well. My battery was at 100% when this happened, hopefully it isnt a 2 day wait to drain it. I have only had the thing since the 19th of this month so I may just return it for another one as they have a 15 day return policy. I also wrote Asus about it. Seems they are aware because they on their support site have this listed as an issue.

Either way lesson learned. I will no longer leave it connected to the keyboard dock charging all night...

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 PM ----------

Update:

Ok, I got it to reboot.

Using Windows 7 I hooked up the tf101 with the it attached to the Keyboard dock to the usb

I went to device manager, options, Add legacy hardware.

Clicked Choose from list

Added Android ADB interface, Android adb composite interface.

Then added Android adb bootloader interface.

Restart pc

Held power and it finally powered down.

I had android sdk installed before hand as well.

Hope thi helps anyone if it happens to them.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chadcspencer:
I believe it's Volume up and power for 10 seconds that's a could boot. I hadn't seen anybody mention that yet so thought I would through it it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Yeah, I tried that as well at the time, no luck.

So, just to update. After this happened the first time, I let the tablet battery die out, after which it booted up fine. About a week later, the exact same thing happened again. So, thinking it for some reason was related to the custom rom i was running, I nvflashed back to stock. However, I still have the issue from time to time. Its very frustrating, and I'm not quite sure if its a software issue or a hardware issue.

I'm gonna leave it for a little bit, but if it continues to happen on a regular basis, I'll have to call Asus.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theemstra:
This does not do anything here
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewklau:
Same boat, 3rd time coming back from RMA. My other has absolutely no issues, Asus refuses to repair or fix the one which has had all the issues...

Stuck on this all the time, and I'm on stock :/
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antond57:
When using some custom kernels/roms the boot process stucks after the Asus logo when the tablet is connect to a PC or power supply.

To solve this disconnect the USB / powercable before booting.

Or flash a 9.2.2.3. based kernel like guever-test13 (or higher).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerSandmann:
Had the same problem here. I tried to solve this myself, but after 4 days I nvflashed all stock and RMA'd it.

They sent me a new tab... But now it's all okay! I just can't exactly remember how I bricked my tab and this is frightening me.. I don't want to do the same error!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbgorman:
I have actualy had the same problem occor and what i did was hold power then boot holding power down then switch to press up to enter CWM recovery then just select reboot device now... works great, had to use this method 3-4 times once today
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 573W1E:
I'm having this problem with my non-rooted Transformer on ICS.

Usually holding the power button down will get it boot normally.

But then randomly when I leave it alone for a while, it will re boot but then get stuck in a loop at the 'Eee Pad' screen with the screen going off every 15 seconds or so. To then get it to re boot then I have to hold the power down button when the screen is off until it comes back on, and then hold the power button down again afterwards for about 10 seconds when it is on for it too boot normally again.

I was hoping that rooting would fix that issue, but it seems not.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Yeah, this problem is still existing for me. once every few days the tablet will not respond to anything at all, just blank screen. I have to wait a while until the battery drains, and then re-charge it and it boots back up and is fine for a while. Its very frustrating. Will have to RMA it soon.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cquilliam:
Sorry to drag this thread from the dead, but, I just wanted to add something.

So, I re-flashed my TF back to stock, then created a new google account to login with. Used the tablet for a couple of weeks normally (netflix, web, etc), and never had 1 lockup at all.

So, I decided to root it again and slap ARHD on it, logged in with my original google account. 1 day later, bam, lockup.

So, I'm starting to think its some app or something with my original google account that's giving me this issue. I know its not ARHD, because in the past I have restored to stock and used my original google account and had the lockup.

So, I just wiped and re-flashed my TF with the latest ARHD, and logged in with my newer google account, and now going to test for a couple of weeks and see if it works.

If that's the case, then its probably going to be a long process to figure out what exactly is causing the problem on my account.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Hello

Just got my Xperia s and it is evenlaggier than my old arc, especially the launcher stutters with every Single move... Any1 else facing this?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] awf:
Nope smooth :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Nimche:
...a as silk...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Evil_Sephiroth:
No problem here..try to hard reset it...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
i just got it :( so how can there be a problem already?!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
everything else is fine just the launcher is lagging..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ergo14:
Try full wipe of the phone, everything is smooth here unless i connect HDMI which is a different problem
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
done the reset and NOTHING changed.. :( im a bout to return this baby :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Deleted member 2158596:
It's because of gingerbread I think.. I have seen ICS on the Xperia S, and it's an amazing difference. If you can stand it as is for a couple of months then you'll be up for a treat.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] torquadon:
I don't think it's gingerbread since most people don't have that problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
What the hell and most people were talking about that like its a nornal issue?

People with smooth, compare it with a iphobe 4s, thats what we mean.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MJ_QaT:
Can't see much difference to be honest... I had mine for two weeks now and I can easily say it's as smooth as the iPhone 4s.. And yes my brother had one so I can compare..

My complaints are with some force closes that I face with a couple of apps but that's a different issue which is related to the app itself..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
I mean the scrolling on the home screen with widgets etc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Deleted member 2158596:
Most people don't have the problem because they are not noticing this "laggy-ness". It's something most people doesn't think about. As for me, I think it works pretty well - but ICS is gonna be better.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Very visible for me. I hate that. Must.. Be.. Smooth..

Some widgets needs to get tweaked. Very choppy when scrolling to them.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
It really lags but not the widgets just when i scroll through the icons in the launcher it stutters badly,,,
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
My phone is insanely smooth, not choppy at all.

Obviously if you have like 5 of those animated weather widgets on a screen it will probably jump a little between screens, but yea, you have 5 animated weather widgets :P.

Do you have a different launcher? maybe you have a really heavy launcher?

I seriously have no problems, and I am really picky if I have weird lags and such.

Maybe you have a lot of background apps running?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Maybe the update to. 67 could help?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
& no i dont have much running just 370 mb ram free.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Weird :/

Well I updated as soon as I got the phone, so I have no idea if that is an improvement or not. So I am not sure what to tell you :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackon:
Try a different launcher like zeam just to see if it's hardware related ( I suspect not).

I don't put many widgets on my home so it's all smooth. In the drawer i think the rubber band effect is too much. But that's just my preference. Hope ICS does away with it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Ill try to Update this evening and report back!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] onemandivision:
My Xperia S is also a bit laggy, but thats because of the live wallpaper and lots of widgets. If you root it, remove all the sony crap, live wallpaper and use a different launcher (like zeam, or nova launcher) its going to be smooth as hell.

Alternatively, just removing the live wallpaper and using a different launcher will do it for now (i tried it).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dibdin:
I have a few widgets running and livewallpaper running and it's buttery smooth.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
Same here, I've had mine for just a week now and it came with .67 firmware already installed but it's nice and smooth.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Different launcher will alwayd be smooth, its optimised.

Everyone can do it, why not Sony?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
What could be wrong then? :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MJ_QaT:
I can see what you mean... I got that when had at least one widget on each screen... Got a bit laggy..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
Maybe its a faulty handset? I just tried zeam launcher and its even more laggy :o
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Some widgets lag like crazy.

Top contacts

Timescape widgets

Gallery

Deleted that widgets and added some others, smootger now. This needs to be fixed.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
it is not the homescreen that lags for me.. its just when opening the launcher and scrolling through all your apps, that stutters like hell :O
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
update didnt help in any way...-.-
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] skifyr123:
Yeah, happens to me too. Guess it's the launcher which is not optimized enough. Installing a different launcher solves the problem for me. If that doesn't solve it maybe you handset is faulty?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
yeah its laggy when you scroll fast.. same for the widget list..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
well ok i dont think it is hardware related, as i just installed ADW launcher and it is smooth as silk.. ****ty sony :P

but ICS is just around the corner and i think it's well optimized :) as gingerbread was just a rush to bring out the phone :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jimi83:
hi .yes i can confirm it is not so smooth as xperia arc (i still got it) . ithink they will fix that in next update ..that is just the launcher .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xerox89:
I can confirm that it really not smooth like Arc S or play ( i have 3 of them )

However , it have chance for Arc S or play to become more lag when switching application / reading media file and pictures / background application running

But the "unsmooth" on xperia S wont become worser than it currently was when you multi tasking ( its stable for all the time ) . The little scowling lag doesnt bother me much .

And yes , its perhaps home launcher optimization problem as the hardware is strong enough .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doministry:
Strange. My phone runs silky smooth
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] keunhuvac:
I feel sorry for all ppl who has lag with their xs, mine is smooth as silk.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] awf:
Same here it's heaven compared to the O2X a piece of junk

But then again I'm not running the virus software which is virus stuff by itself :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jimi83:
hm i have just re updated my phone ,i dont have now the "Top contacts" widget ...and lol i can fell the difference ..now i can say its smooth as my arc .

I have tryed add top contacts again ..and yes there is small difference ..after removing (it is still running in mem so i have killed task) and again it was smooth . but im not 100% sure ...if that is just my eyes...or maybe the re update helped ...but if u guys using top contacts try remove it and kill task . and give it a try .

but for sure before all that it was laggy xd now much better ...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] emorej:
The performance of this phone is impressive its comparable with the smoothness of iphone ui..loving it no lags or what so ever all operation are instant zero lag! screen is number one better than retina..:D:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] link615:
So I don't know if this is a stupid question or not but I just switched to an ICS rom and it replaced the enter button on the keyboard to a smiley shortcut. is there any way to change it back to the enter button? thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Not without flashing an entire new keyboard.

There are a multitude of different keyboards in the market that you can install.

[HTC Desire S] HPDoubleDutch:
My wife´s Desire S has the following combination:

S-Off, Rooted

Hboot 6.98.1002

Android 2.3.5

HTC Sense 3.5

ROM EngeryROM

Radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M

Kernel 2.6.35.14-RCMIX-SAGA-V1-gf17016b-dirty

ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0

Strangely enough it "hangs" now and then. Im not so familiar with the Desire S, unlike my own Sensation which I know very well if it comes to tweaking.

Is any of the above configuration not recommended? Some other suggestions maybe?

Thank you in advance!
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Absolutely nothing wrong. I've noticed these kinds of problems usually come from not doing a full wipe. If you did then the only thing I could recommend is a different ROM, perhaps endymion?
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
Also, make sure you're not running overclocked (some ROMs have it set by default).
[HTC Desire S] HPDoubleDutch:
Thanks guys! Other ROM would be nice but haven't seen a full working ICS ROM for this device yet.

Don't know if it's overclocked, what is the stock CPU speed for Desire S? 1 GHz?
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
Yes 1 GHz. Just to clarify though, endymion is not ics and its highly recommended by everyone here. But official sense 3.6 is almost here so not long to wait now
[HTC Desire S] HPDoubleDutch:
Thx again!

What's the recommended procedure for this phone before flashing new ROM? For my Sensation, there's a SuperWipe zip file that clears all necessary for new ROM installation. Is that available for the Desire S?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'd suggest that you have a read within the INDEX thread (see my signature) where you find a whole load of general guides that will get you started.

Easiest way to prepare phone before installing ROM I'd say would be to install 4ext recovery and use wipe all (except SD card) option, from within the wipe menu, and then flash ROM.
[HTC Desire S] gordo79:
Not essential but you could change the revolutionary hboot your wife has at the moment for a eng hboot. Doing this makes it alot easier to return to stock s on if needed for any reason
