[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dropped_Call_Metrics:
I've the forum rules: this query does not neatly fit anywhere, so I'll apologise in advance, but it does affect millions of people in real life in a very real and practical way.

There is a function in Android called com.android.internal.telephony.Connection.DisconnectCause.

It's function is to tell who tore down the voice call connnection, and specifically if it was due to the carrier having network congestion caused by their rent seeking under spending of CAPEX and general ****ty service. This indirectly implements (via the radio interface layer) Qualcomm diagnostics and ITU standards.

As it turns out, some (if not most) manufacturers have deliberately commented it out so it does not work, almost certainly at the request of the carriers.

So I am seeking a low level engineer up for some deep hacking to come up with a solution, perhaps one of the following:-

1. Ultra low level boot program that creates a micro-RIL with a single function of talking to the Qualcomm chipset before the main OS ROm starts to run for call diagnostics

2. A variation on above, namely a patch

3. A man-in-the-middle RIL daemon inserter to interrogate

4. Hack VALIK

5. Somethng else I have not thought of (I do not know Android except it has a Linux kernel and is a collective noun for a random collection of ROMs fiddled with by manufacturers who fill them with advertising **** and crippleware)

I will pay a $5k reward to who ever can help devise a manufacturer independent means of achieving this that is not too brittle and can somehow get that data to an ordinary app. The Qualcomm manuals and calls and even sample code is available to serious developers. Please privately message me if you are interested. This is not an "all or nothing" offer: I will pay more than one person for more than one pathway.

This is a real offer with real bucks and an ongoing retainer payment.

So there it is, money, a chance to make carriers crap service measurable and accountable and fame. There is a funny clip on you tube on this exact point ("they **** you with cell phones") with Joe Pesci at:

Let us know, and I will continue to help research, I know qkster has dealt with others in this situation.

How it helps, but will require some reading and understanding on your part, not saying you wont or wont understand, :) but bottom line your at the end...you have the phone in your hands, all we can do is provide the sources and resources, best of luck, ok :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] adolfo778:
appreciate the help, great support :)

so I realized that that link you posted with the white screen issue, was that he probably had a white screen like me only difference is that i have a white screen that turns on and off, so odin or any other program only recongnizes it when it temporarly flashes white :(

im so proud of myself, i made a external charger and charged the phone for a bit and now that I tried it the white screen stays on and doesnt turn on and off anymore gonna attempt to go into download mode, guessing the previous owner(I got the phone knowing it was bricked) was flashing a bootloader or something and his battery died.

pretty good for a 17 year old lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clark Joseph Kent:
Ok let it charge if you can need a full charge..:D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
So I was streaming music from MOG and all was working well until my screen went off (idle). Music started to pause/buffer and kept doing so every 10 seconds. When I turn the screen back on and stare at it, it won't do it at all and I can see it load full on the seek bar. Only happens when screen goes off and phone goes idle. I'm guessing its something with the CPU throttling maybe? Is there any way I can fix this? I'm connected on WiFi 5G and I have "keep WiFi on during sleep - Always".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Colemak:
This seems to be a pretty common issue (I have it myself, when connecting via WiFi with adb I need to keep my display on) and I've seen two issues on file here and here. I've yet to see a fix for it yet though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
Aww crap. Well that sucks. Does it happen on custom roms/kernels?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Colemak:
I'm running CM9 nightly with leankernel now. Although it's happened since I've gotten the phone, and I've ran probably half a dozen different ROMs and 3 different kernels, including stock. I vaguely remember reading some posts where people either said there was a fix or they were working on it, though I'm honestly not real sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
K thanks for the info bro.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kizuki.buy:
I am also facing the same issue. Yesterday, I was downloading ARHD 3.0 directly on phone through wi-fi. Surprisingly the progress was 1% completion per minute in screen-off mode. But the moment, I would turn on the screen, the rate became 3-4 times faster. i.e. 3-4% completion per minute.

Deviating from topic, I have seen similar behaviour quite some time back in iPad1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
Well glad to know I'm not in the same boat. Have any of u tried android 4.0.4?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T4rd:
Yeah, I'm on Liquid 1.25 (4.0.4 based ROM) and it still does it. If I run a speed test and turn the screen off, let it finish and check it; it will never go much over 5 Mbit/s. When I run the test with the screen on, I will get 10-20 Mbit/s. This was of course testing on my home WiFi network.

This is pretty annoying because I download anime torrents every week and it's enough of a battery killer already just to download the thing, but now I have to leave the screen on in order for it to even finish in a reasonable amount of time. I've also tried setting the minimum clock speed to 1200 MHz in SetCPU just to see if it was a CPU throttling/bottleneck issue when the screen turns off. But it made no difference :(. This can't be a hard fix for Google/Devs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meti84:
At least with popcorn and franco kernels you can do

echo 1 > /sys/module/bcmdhd/parameters/wifi_pm

to put wifi on high performance mode with screen off. They say this can enable high throughput.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kizuki.buy:
Yes, I am using ARHD 3.0 which is based on 4.0.4

There seem to be definite improvements and it was worth the effort to update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
As far as I know, wifi goes into a low power state with screen off to conserve power/battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meti84:
My command put it in normal power mode, but kernel must support it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reyes.jr:
oooo, so only on WiFi does this occur? On 4g it doesn't?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msedek:
This also happen to me.. Happened in 4.0.1 4.0.2 4.0.4 so far I managed to bypass the issue with wifi keep alive its a free app from play store.. You could try and comment if that works for you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] melethron:
Threre is no need for any custom kernel module. Im on Stock ICS 4.04 and found an easy workaround. Actually this issue is not an android bug, but an issue of streaming apps that aren't proberly coded for honeycomb and ICS.

you can use flashtool (download flashtool + rom and do an offline flashing)

you should have understood the risk of updating first to a beta version of ICS

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
WotanServer, downloads and installs your chosen stock firmware version automatically. Yes, it is free, but requires a free account.

But yea, you can also search around this forum.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] prateek_gemini:
yeah wotanserver is good ... but i was going for offline flashing ... like in case no internet is available.... in that case i would have to flash through flashtools. So the firmware files are present in xda forums only. ? i found a .58 firmware file in forums... just wondering where those guys got it ...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
If you download the firmware with WotanServer once, then next time it doesn't have to be downloaded again, it is saved on your PC.

Make it the same as the perms of default launcher then delete the old launcher. Or I think that''s how you do it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] munzik:
Can you tell us what steps you have taken to try and save the pictures/videos?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
Is your data on when you try to download. Usually pics and videos are mms messages which must use data even if your on wifi.

Also, make sure that the apn is correctly settled...check in the data connection settings if you have mms configured

Dude when you get to "Access Point Names" click it. There you should see three APNs

1 ATT

2 MediaNet

3 MediaNet mms

If there is no # 3 then just hit menu and new APN and create one

Tap on # 3 and it should look like this

Do you have your data turned on? To download a picture message it takes alittle bit of data to do so, but att doesn't charge for it.

It might be an issue with the ROM itself...I cant remember if diesel how MMS works in diesel edition...check out the ROM thread and see if any others have the same issue. Or try finding a different APN settings, other than the ones you mentioned above.

I installed build 30 tonight on my p935, quick feedback:

- Opera mobile 12 doesn't play well with it (on keyboard entry it hangs opera, systemui & launcher)

- Stock browser checkerboards/tiles at times when scrolling a page

- As you stated, most everything appears to be functional

- Launcher stutters more than in menus (eg. Launcher feels like about 15fps, menus & browser look like about 30fps) forced gpu made no difference.

- Generally smoother than cm9 build

- Battery life is surprisingly good, especially in standby (though too early to say for sure)

Would build.prop tweaks that people have used on 2.2/2.3 work? Was thinking of trying max_events_per_sec & touch sensitivity flags to see if they would make a difference?

My first look at AOKP, I like what I see!
