[Windows 8 General] enoch861:
I have an Alienware m17 r1 with the Core 2 Extreme Q3000 processor and the ATI Mobility Radeon HD3870X2 graphics card.

Let me start off by saying that Windows Vista works great with no issues at all.

Windows 8: Has a probelm that when I resume from sleep (open the laptop lid) everything just goes bizerk. I can't log in because the screen keeps on flickering on and off and what not. So I have to manually power down and reboot to get things working straight. After a reboot or fresh boot, everything works perfectly including games and stuff. It is important to not that there are no graphics card drivers for my graphics card for Windows 8, but as you will see with how Windows 7 acts, I don't think thats the issue.

Windows 7: I thought Windows 8 was what was causing the issues, so I downloaded a copy of Windows 7 Enterprise trial. Everything worked fine, I installed all the Windows 7 drivers for my laptop including the most up to date graphics card drivers. I closed the lid, opened it again, and bam, Aero stops working. And I can't fix it. And I also can't use the IE or some other applications. So I reinstalled Windows a few more times once without any graphics drivers except for the Windows one and once with the Alienware provided Windows 7 drivers and still the issue occurs. It also occurs after a fresh boot withouth logging in, closing the lid, and opening it and logging in.

I'm not exactly sure what it going on, although I'm sort of ruling out graphics drivers because in Windows Vista everything works perfectly. I was thinking about disconnecting the CrossFire cable to see if one of my graphics cards is the one having any issues, but I wanted your input first to see what the problem might be.

Other m17 owners seem to have Windows 7 running smoothly, but in my case its just not working.

I should also note that the first time I installed Windows 8, I used up the whole harddrive and eveything was working fine. And then a week later that issue started to happen. I then installed Windows Vista and everything was back to working order. I then decided to dualboot Windows 7 and Aero would just turn off after resuming from sleep. I haven't tried Installing Windows 7 on the whole harddrive yet because I don't think that would fix anything. Currently I'm back to Windows Vista on the whole harddrive. I also have a different BIOS that allows overclocking installed, but the system is not overclocked but rather undervolted from 1.2 to 1.186 if I remember correctly.

Here are the complete specs of the system from My Alienware PC Information:
[Windows 8 General] CruciasNZ:
Sounds like Hibernate is causing the issue. Try turning it off

Open Command Prompt (run as administrator) and type

powercfg hibernate /off
[Windows 8 General] enoch861:
That didn't fix it. I reinstalled Windows and tried it.

Actually that command didn't help. I used powercfg -h off . I tries both on and off and Aero still disables. This is in Windows 7 by the way.
[Windows 8 General] Dungeonscaper:
Do a clean uninstall of your video drivers with something like driver sweeper then reinstall the latest ATI drivers.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
If you've tried drivers id strongly suggest you start the way all "odd" tech issues are diagnosed.

Rip out anything none essential, including cross fire, bare bones and start from scratch.

If that works then start adding stuff back in.

if it didn't work then your issue is in whats left, most likely graphics or Moby related, but get back to us after doing the above and we'll go from there.
[Windows 8 General] enoch861:
I had already tried all that driver stuff before.

Since it's a laptop, I decided to remove the CrossFire cable to no avail and then I started realizing that CrossFire wasn't actually working to begin with. I had noticed it before, but I didn't investigate further. I tried to reseat the CrossFire cable multiple times to no avail. The one time it did work, I restarted the computer and the second card disappeared.

So I hit some other forums for more info and one said that if I was having CrossFire issues, I should flash a different BIOS. So I flashed the stock Alienware BIOS and bam! Aero got fixed. So that got rid of that problem. Although I'm still stuck with no CrossFire. Removing the cable and putting it back in 10 or so times will get the second card to show up and then disappear again after a restart. According to my understanding, two cards have to show up in device manager when CrossFire is "working". So thats the only problem I have now, otherwise I've been using Windows 7 Enterprise for 2 days now playing Saints Row: The Third for a solid 5 hours with no crashes or anything. Although I'm still missing out on the performance of the second card.

Any ideas to troubleshooting this?
[Windows 8 General] twistedR:
Possibly the drivers?

I have three different machines with sort of similar problems. The Aero basically ****s up. It seems to be an issue with the latest ATI Drivers. I am using the version 11 I believe not the latest. That seems to be helping.
[Windows 8 General] enoch861:
In Windows Vista the latest drivers worked fine. I haven't tried the latest ones on this computer yet, but my desktop does have the latest and it works just fine.
[Windows 8 General] twistedR:
Oh, I should have mentioned that I am running windows 7 on all three.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sdrobinson:
OK... I want to use the option to use my phone's internet (via Bluetooth) with my Acer Iconia Tab A100. My phone is a Nokia Asha 302, and yes it has BT PAN... When I pair my phone with my Iconia tab it actually has the option to connect and use phones internet, but when I try it connects and nothing else happens... However when I try to disconnect, my phone disconnects and tablet hangs. My computer has no problems connecting to my phone. I'm at my wits end. Any Ideas? File swap Ideas? Config Mods? I'm open to anything.

Thanks

BTW... My tab is sporting the ICS leak with root, unlocked BL, and thor recovery installed.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sdrobinson:
ok...

So I did more playing around and found out that when I choose to use my phone's internet and don't get any net. But when I do a pand --show --list it shows "bnep0 B4:39:D5:09:8E:F4 PANU" which is a problem when my bt address is really F4:8E:09:D5:39:B4... Not really sure what the deal is...
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] fisterkev:
I also use BT to tether. Latest version of PDANet on the A100 and Foxfi on the phone. They work seamlessly together.

I couldn't get it to work before the ICS leak, but since then both PDANet and Foxfi have updated. It worked fine when I was on ICS leak, it still works now that I have gone back to HC 3.2.1.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sdrobinson:
Still can't seem to figure this out... I waited for the official release hoping to have this issue resolved, but still have the same problem. It really seems like some sort of Android bluetooth bug. I mean... All I have to do is pair my tablet with my phone and it natively gives me the option to use my phones internet via BT and when I select it, it connects to the phone only to not actually get any internet connectivity at all (even though my PC has no problems doing this). When I try to disable the connection my tablet locks up forcing me to power it down and boot it back up... I'm not sure, but could the problem be due to the fact that this BT PAN connection is a sort of AD HOC protocol? There was a resolution to this with the AD HOC Wifi issue so could there be a similar step to take for this BT PAN issue?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] fisterkev:
As I said in the post above you, latest version of PDANet Tablet on the A100 and Foxfi on the phone works. It works after the OTA update, too.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sdrobinson:
Thanks for your reiteration, however... As I posted in the very beginning, my phone is a Nokia... I noted this mostly because Nokia in the past hadn't provided their phones with the bluetooth PAN profile... I bought this phone specifically for this profile and that it had a much faster processor... And as explained above, everything appears as it should even to the point of seeing the available feature of my phone... Android seems to still have some bugs to work out so it looks as if I'll have to wait some more till it's resolved...
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] rising power:

I have the same need and same problems. One of my phones has PAN, the other not.

What it worked for me is this:

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] sdrobinson:
Whatever!

Got rid of the Acer Iconia Tab A100 and upgraded to the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0... It had all of these features available out of the box... I didn't actually get rid of it, just gave it to my wife... Same thing...

I bought an Evo 3d on craiglist and got it activated. I have talk/text but i have no data, and it also wont do the Hands Free Activation. I found out the phone was previously flashed to cricket and the prl has been changed. So im trying to figure out what i need to do to get data working and how to change my prl back to spints because it wont update through Software Updates. I have tried flashing 2.17.651.5 RUU and it didnt help. Any suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Have you tried just updating the profile?

Menu/Settings/System Updates

Sometimes this can help with a bunch of issues relating to no data service. Aside from that, you may just have to call in and get the phone re-provisioned.
[HTC EVO 3D] pcausey77:
yea ive tried that and been on the phone with sprint and nothing is fixing the problem but i will be at my local sprint store today so hopefully they can fix the issue "i hope" haha

Sprint couldnt do anyhthing either.. they said they would have to further investigate the problem but cant because it hasnt been active on my account for over 30 days so im back on my shift now is there anything i can do?

Try this

Open up your dialer and dial

##72786#

select edit and enter MSL

select menu and then Reset

You will need your msl to get it just download an app called msl reader from the play store.

After you have done with that it should do a hands free activation. When its done then do this

Dial

##3282#

select edit and enter MSL

select data profile

select menu and select Restore

Let it reboot and then when your back booted up update your profile and prl to see if that works.

[HTC EVO 3D] netwokz:
Like you said, it sounds like you need to flash a sprint prl, as it might still have the cricket one. If someone can list their prl, then compare it to yours. If it is different then you can follow my thread HERE to try flashing the prl. I haven't tried flashing the prl on the 3d yet though, so it might be a little different. That was the only way I was able to get data working, and I tried every other method.

So, I guess I screwed with something on my phone, but my display now shows "color bleeding" mostly when i open the phone up in horizontal mode. Would this be a problem with the flex cable? if so, just replacing that cable should fix the problem right?

I am able to disassemble the whole phone no problem.

[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
Sadly enough, I do not have a camera other than the one on my dz... a screenshot wouldn't do anything since it just looks fine.. but it's something with the physical hardware part. I'll see if I can borrow a friend's camera when it happens again, but essentially the red and blue colors look like it's splotched in different parts and sometimes it even "pulsates"

it doesn't do it in vertical mode, but in horizontal mode.. it appears instantly.

[G2 and Desire Z General] hungrytien:
I'm experiencing a slight color disfiguration. I traded my girlfriend my phone for a few days and when i got it back, the bottom half has a yellowish tint. Is the flex ribbon the reason why it's like this?
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
is it the same tint whether or not you're in vertical or horizontal (keyboard open) mode?

if so it might be your flex cable or it might be the actual screen itself.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hungrytien:
Yeah, the yellow (and now with blue) tint is in both modes. lower half of both sides (vertical and horizontal)
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
wait, does the tint change on the screen? as in does the tint stay in the bottom half of the vertical screen and stays in the right half in horizontal? or does it shift so that it goes to the bottom half in horizontal? if it stays in the same physical space in both modes, then it might be the screen itself, but if it shifts.. it's most probably the flex cable.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hungrytien:
yeah, it shifts. but now the blue and yellow lines is throughout the screen. initially, i thought it was a ROM thing, so i changed it to see it in a different rom.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mputtr:
sounds like a flex cable problem. I can't guarantee it since it's one of those "replace it and see if it works" deal.
