[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Raider0001:
history was that my sisters ACE got bricked by flashing (ODIN), samsung replaced motherboard and then i flashed it second time - all went fine, then my uncle saw my sisters modded rom - he saw performance boost and asked me to make his - so i used same identical files: ops, odin, rom from before ! so i can exclude broken OPS

This cant be lottery, its something BROKEN inside phone...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] codeknight11:
ROM's package might be incomplete or broken
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] xHackell:
if something is broken in the fone, he cant even use him fone before flashing.

so u can exclude broken hardware
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Raider0001:
there could be a system partition that isn't used normally, and after time it gets data retention loss, when flashing it goes bizarre and destroys itself thats my idea i have no other it is a phones fault maybe not broken but really low quality in some cases - ask yourself: why samsung is replacing motherboards ? they have stuff to check any hardware issues and probably they could flash it directly to the memory...

there are many posts around forums that ACE cant connect to PC to show its SD card, from what i saw it have really slow internal memory much slower then my cheap Chinese tablet
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] diditdr:
Unsolder those (messy) bga memory/flash, jtag (dunno pin connection, under sim card maybe ?). :confused:

But faulty hw got you unlucky ones bcause modern electronic mfg employed six sigma with permillion opportunity with defect. Thats warranty usefull for, imho sent back to samsung are wise and economically efficient, than I mention above. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Smackychops:
I have been trying to add the AT&T APN to my unlocked Rogers i717r note, and have, after a process of elimination, discovered that adding an APN is functional, UNLESS I change the MMC or MNC port numbers. If I add an APN, it sticks just fine. But if I go back in and change the MMC or MNC ports, then it disappears off the list for some reason.

Does anyone else see this phenomenon?

For general info, I am on the stock ROM, rooted kernel, and touch-based CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Smackychops:
This thread has some relevant information. Mainly its because the Radio Interface Layer does not allow switching to another MMC MNC protocol.

The fix found in that thread is this:

Dunno if it will work for the Note, but it seems like it is a general android hack, and not hardware-specific. We shall see.
[HTC One S] jodue:
my device has this odd behaviour i have already seen years ago on my htc magic. tje mobile data connection switches between umts and hspa constantly which can be observed by the chqnging H/3G icon. every time it switches the transfer stops which makes the mobile data connection painfully slow at most times... wifi is working perfectly btw.

as far as i understand it this is a bug in the radio firmware. my htc magic stopped showing this behaviour after a firmware update...

anyone else having this issue?
[HTC One S] Thiesen:
Oh the dreaded "arrow up" "bug" is at large still with 3 it seems.'

I have the HTC Desire (will be getting the HOS) and 3 as carrier too...

That "bug" was even present in my HTC Hero.

Three different phones on 3 all made by HTC can't be an coincident?
[HTC One S] jodue:
4, including my htc magic ;) however the one s is an awesome phone and i guess this problem will be fixable with a radio firmware update soon... interresting that it seems to happen with 3 mostly...didn't have it with my galaxy s however. seems to be htc+3 ...

i will probably write htc's and 3's tech support. as 3 austria will be introducing the one s soon they will have to deal with this bug soon anyway...
[HTC One S] keinengel:
I've actually got the exact same problem on my Desire Z on T-Mobile DE. Not sure what to make of it. And I've played with the One S in a Telekom Shop and it seems to be switching wildly between 3G and H too.

The same Desire Z didn't have this problem with a Vodafone Romania SIM card in Bucharest.
[HTC One S] jodue:
hm ... i guess/hope it's a bug in the radio firmware as the data transfer works fine for the rest of the connection after the initial 2 switches from HSPA to UMTS and vice versa. a google search shows that many people with different devices seem to have this issue...

anyway i wrote two emails, one to my carrier (three-austria) and one to htc. i will post any replys!
[HTC One S] Nightfrag07:
I have the same Problem with my new HTC One S. :(

The connection switches constantly between 3G and H and the connection stops. It loads 1-3 MB and after that it takes !10 or more seconds! before it is loading another 1-3MB...

You can not do things like Youtube or Mobile TV because the loading process takes forever with a 3G and HSPA switching connection!

I tried my new (big) SIM Card (from 3 Austria) with my HTC HD2 before i switched to the micro SIM (from 3 Austria) and the connection speed on my HD2 was 5-10 times faster as with my new HTC One S and this can not be!! :confused: (HD2 is running Custom Andriod 2.3.7 with radio 2.15.50.14.)

It has to be a major radio software bug that is unexaptable for such an expensive phone!

The Internet is extremely fast with Wifi on my One S... but on the way i doesnt have a Wifi connection...

I really want to keep the phone and everything else works amazingly good but this bug drives me crazy. :(

I reported this problem to HTC and 3 (drei) as well via E-Mail.

Should i keep the phone?? Or is it better to send it back to Amazon, because i have only 12 days left to send it back without any reason.

Is HTC going to release a radio firmware update very soon? I have no experience with Android updates and HTC. How long does it usually take to receive updates from HTC?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC One S] jodue:
hi, i understand that you are also on three (drei) in austria, probably even in vienna?!

i also sent mails describing the exact problem to three and htc. however neither one was able to give me any more information than what i already new. inbetween i tried a hardware (factory) reset and another sim (on yesss!), but the problem persited.

after several mails back and fourth the htc guy now wrote me a standard "your unit maybe broke and you can send it in for repair" email. however i am pretty sure that this is no hardware defekt but a bug in the radio firmware in which case exchanging the phone would not serve.

it is hard to say how long it will take htc to deliver an update for the radio firmware that fixes this bug. despite the htc support giving me the standard "exchange the unit" answer i will try to push them to get the ticket to the development department. i think that this should not be too hard to fix if they are aware of the problem.
[HTC One S] jodue:
i was just at a local three store in vienna. they said that they don't know of other people having this issue. i checked the software version of the devices they sell against my unlocked one s. same baseband version however a different (and newer!) build number. sadly this firmware is not available yet so there is no way to check if an update will solve the issue.
[HTC One S] southkill:
I seem to have the same problem on Vodafone Germany
[HTC One S] packetlos:
I have this problem with T-Mobile UK, I have had the same problem in the past with the Desire HD however it was eventually resolved with a software update.

With the chipping problem and now this it is really starting to put a downer on owning this phone. :(
[HTC One S] jodue:
can you please post your build number? i have 1.53.401.2 CL47230 however the device in the three store had somthing like 1.53.771.*
[HTC One S] packetlos:
Exactly the same version as yours.
[HTC One S] Procake:
I'm having the same issue and I'm on Virgin in the UK.
[HTC One S] Goody81:
same version same issue...

carrier: Wind Italy

a custom rom with 1.53.771 firmware would help?
[HTC One S] jodue:
hm interresting! so the problem actually occurs with many different carriers... would be good to know if anybody solved the problem by exchanging the device?!!

@Goody81: i am not 100% sure but i'd say after all testing and looking at system-/kernel-logs i am pretty convinced that this is a firmware (software) issue. i cannot say that the slightly newer build on the device was due to carrier modifications or if they actually changed something to fix this issue. the guy how showed my the device was no engineer and had no idea what i tried to explain :D

if this is a software issue and they already fixed it i hope htc delivers the update soon!
[HTC One S] Nightfrag07:
No but i live close to vienna. ;)

I tried everything! Restarts, factory reset, delete all stuff on the device, the full program but still the same problem.

Yesterday i received a phone call from 3 Tech support in Germany and i described the problem to him!

He said the problem does not exist with their 3 branded phones.

Then i said, i have a open (not branded) phone from Amazon and i think that is a part of the problem. Later i asked about updates and then he said in most cases it took 9 Month to receive a original update from HTC and thats way to long for me.

So i decided to send my phone back and now i am looking for a phone with the newer radio software on it. It seems the only way for now is to buy it at a 3 (three, drei) Store.

But that's just my own opinion ! You can also wait for a custom rom or radio here at xda and hope this problem will be fixed soon.

But if you want to get sure to receive a working phone with fast internet connection you should buy it direct from a 3 store because they have a customized (and branded) software in order to get it working!

And that software doesnt exist or is not available on a open phone yet.

Anyway, i was not very excited when I heard about that! :(
[HTC One S] jodue:
hehe i think 9 month is a "little" exaggerated ... this is not a major update like a new android version but a small bug-fix update. i would guess that an updated firmware will leak soon and if you are willing to unlock the bootloader you can update instantly. however i have to agree, i am tempted to return the device as well or at least try a demo unit in a store with my sim card to make 100% sure it's no hardware defekt...

this is an unfortunate pain in the a** since i like everything else about this phone and don't want to return it ^^
[HTC One S] Nightfrag07:
Yeah you are right. It would be a bug-fix or only a radio update but i liked that phone and i want a working (non switching) one asap! :D

And of course i have to try it in the 3 Shop first with my own SIM card. ;)
[HTC One S] Nightfrag07:
Oh i forgot!!

The 3 Tech support man from Germany also said they having the same problem on Samsung phones with Android 4.0.4. I think they will also have a fix for this soon.

So make sure not to buy such a phone as well at this time! :p

It's definitive not only a HTC problem... ;)
[HTC One S] jodue:
yeah, i told my girlfriend about the issue yesterday and she has experienced it on her (my old) galaxy s with the new cm9 nightlies as well. not as often as on my one s however ...

after reading about this issue on this forum (german) and more general about mobile data connections with umts/hspa (german) i think it the issue is the result of an error in the umts<->hspa switching algorithm. as explained on the 2nd link the device will switch from umts to hspa if the bandwidth increases above a certain threshold (~380k) which will interrupt the connection. so far this is normal behaviour however it should not change constantly between during the transfer of data. i am able to achieve a stable (uninterruped) download if a set the maximal bandwidth below ~300kbit. above this threshold the problem occures.

i am now 99.9% sure this is no hw-issue so i will keep the device and a) hope for either htc or three to make modifications/an update to solve this isssue. b) i will investigate if this threshold/algorithm can be influenced with either build.prop or some other method in which case i will root the device and try do develop a fix. i think everybody that has this issue should inform htc about it as they probably have the best chance to fix it fast.

edit: if someone with a three (drei) branded device reads this: i would very much appreciate it if you could post your /system/build.prop file here! thank you in advance!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Tak3r07:
Hey there,

Since a few days instagram is available for android.

I have just tested it but there is a problem which i could not find anywhere else here on xda or somewhere else so i thought this might belong to our device / specific rom.

When i load a picture, choose the effect and want to continue, the device stucks. There is a loading circle but it is not rotating. I have to pull the battery out to restart the device.

Im on Dorimanx 3.1.5.1 (light) with Dorimanx Kernel 6.4D

Can someone test the app and try to reproduce this error?

Regards
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] don_sefer:
I have the same Problem. Hyperdroid 5.5.0 I think...

Exactly the same for me!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] erlern:
It was so frustrating for me that I just uninstalled Instagram and stuck with Lightbox. I tell you, Lightbox is still much better IMHO. I do not know what's wrong with Instagram on Dorimanx. It worked when it was 6.4A kernel. Then, since C and D, nothing works. I went back to 5.8 and still the same problem. Mind you, I tried reinstalling the app every time. *frustrated*
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] Tak3r07:
I have found out how to solve the problem..

When i choose a pick and use the maximum size of the square which defines the instagram, the loading process will stuck but if i reduce the square a few pixels, allmost not visible, at least not noticable, the load process wont stuck.

Btw i'm on miui now and everything works fine. Very strange problem

hi guys,

i wanna ask you senious guys that,should i have to change the kernel each time if i want to change the ROM of my galaxy s II or any kernel will work with any ROM?

kindly assist me in this matter.thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
What type of Rom are you trying to flash?

Most custom roms include a kernel so you you will have to refresh back to your preferred kernel.

Or you can open the zip file and replace the kernel of your choice as long as it matches your firmware version, ie GB kernel for a GB rom etc.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adilliano:
let me add the screen shot for your help.it might shows the ROM and kernel and suggest me the best ROM and kernel for my galaxy s II.and tell me which ROM and kernel is best for battery life cause this kernel and ROM is just crap and sucks the battery.

waiting for reply.thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZACQ8:
any kernel may not work with any ROMs...almost all samsung firmware versions has got its own versions of Kernel.

In SGS2 normaly custom kernels are used for rooting your phone, like CF-root, whcih are made for almost all the samsung firamware matched kernels, you only want to pick the one matching for your ROM.

It is also seen sometimes advised to back up your Kernel, this can be done using a tool from Market called "Ktool", at a worst scenario, when your installed custom kernel giving you a treble you can restore the previous one.

EDIT : you are already on a custom ROM as well as Custom Kernel. both have got their newer versions alredy.

checkrom is now on V6, and Siyah kernel is now on v2.6.14
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Well your still on gingerbread and an early kernel and early checkrom. There are many roms and kernels you can try the best for battery life us what works best for you and only you can figure that out with testing.

Try out an ICS Rom if you haven't done so already and there are now custom kernels for that as well.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adilliano:
where i can find its latest versions as you are mentioning them as checkrom v6 and siyah kernel v2.6.14

what do you mean by stock kernel?

should i install the new ROM first or the kernel?

please reply this.

If you flash a rom it replaces the kernel you've been using with that of the rom you're flashing...

Eg cm9 + siyah

If you flash a new nightly it'll replace siyah with cm9s kernel so you have to flash siyah each time.

Think that makes sense..!

[HTC One X] jafar57:
Hi!

I'm a little confused with the One X branding since I saw the european One X based on SoC Tegra 3, the US One X based on Snapdragon S4 and then the One XL based on Snapdragon S4 too. But as far as I know, the One XL is the same than the US One X (tell me if I'm wrong).

I KNOW that Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 has support for GLONASS but I'm NOT sure HTC actived it in their devices. If not, is it possible to enable it with a software patch?

Then I DON'T know if Nvidia Tegra 3 has support for GLONASS. There's no info about it on the nvidia website. As I probably won't be able to get the Snapdragon S4 version of the One X, my question is : Does the Tegra3-based HTC One X have support for GLONASS ?
