[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tn9:
Hi, I'm runing the latest b23 AOKP ROM on my SGS. I recently bought an app Torque Pro and and ELM 327 bluetooth dongle for connecting Torque with my car. The bluetooth dongle pairs with my SGS and in settings it looks OK. When I launch this app I noticed that the ELM 327 dongle is constantly conected and disconnected.

Has any similar problem to mines with Torque Pro and ELM 327 dongle.

The iPhone is closed and Android is open.

Well!

That's the conventional wisdom about the dueling mobile operating systems. Apple's iPhone operating system runs only on Apple's iPhone (plus the iPad and iPod), and every app must be approved by the company before it appears on the App Store. Android, which Google gives away for free, runs on dozens of phones from many different carriers, and anyone can freely upload new apps to the Android Market without approval.

But that conventional wisdom is showing a few cracks, at least on the Android side. Take the flashy new Bing app for Android, announced today by Microsoft: It's not available to all Android phone users -- only the ones that use Verizon.

What are you talking about? Try to install Bing app and you will see that is not available anymore in Google Play Store or whatever you want to call it...then try to install the apk and you will get the web search is been stopped from an unknwon service or Big brother or whatever you want to call it. Don't try to be smart with me because you were just a little child when I started to work in the mobile industry... I hate people that attack without know anything about it..

I don know where you pick up your knowledge about the mobile industry. *facepalm*

This is clearly an app problem and has nothing to do with the OS.

Your thread should be asking about bing app and not about android.

Email to the bing app team instead of whining here

Edit: there must be a reason why it is taken down from the play store. They might be repairing some bug. And the server might be down while they are fixing it.

You don't have to tell me what is open source...even the walls know the basic concept. The thing is that Google has lost the control of android...to me a mobile OS fragmentation is bad....Onestly I don't even remember the exact number of android devices that I had in my hands ...rooted and not, with Sense or Cyanogen or even MIUI and just one iPhone4S with Jailbreak obviously....the true is that the iPhone 4S just works...it just works..how many times to I have to say it...if just was a little bit bigger would be perfect....and one more thing I have Bing also on 3 Uk carrier while with all the android devices I cannot have it anymore....shame one more time Google-android because Bing's unavailability is not the only problem...I could write a book to report all the android's problem.....Yes Ok the Widgets are nice but is not the only thing that count....the eco-system is more important than widgets believe me.

[General Questions and Answers] Skyღ:
@francomur99 , please don't insult people by calling them to brush their own brains . You should mind your language on this forum . And , if this is about the app problem , you should make a thread about Bing and don't make the matter worse by saying is it truly open rather than talking about the app . Because this is unfortunately not what you wanted to ask right? Do not say about others first , say about yourself first . Because , mainly people like this don't tend to know what they're doing in the first place . It is an open source btw . Did that solve your question ?
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_nlb:
bugs has nothing to do with opensource or being openly developed.

its simply means anyone can use or abuse it (like you try to say). thats the deal with open source and environment.

its like a garden open to everybody and no one takes care of it, it dies at the end and no longer will be a garden where everyone is taking care of it together. Google only cares of the OS and drastic meassures someone make a hack to dial dirty numbers or so.

if android was closed like apple, you would see only what google wanted. you would get only that app google approved and yes, you would have only google phones out and it would become a gimmick like iPhone.

and winphone and other bada operating systems would gain more market value.

your specific Verizon issue is with Microsoft and another company, not Android or Google in this case, they just gave the option to restrict distribution, the choice is the developer of the product.
[General Questions and Answers] Dougshell:
Here is a great article i just read that talks about some of the major problems with android right now.

http://betanews.com/2012/04/28/goog...n=Feed+-+bn+-+Betanews+Full+Content+Feed+-+BN

Honestly I would love to see android be just android. All phones running the same version of android. I understand that no all phones can run 4.0 but every phone that runs 2.x should run the same version of 2.x, and every phone that runs 4.0 should run the same version of 4.0.

One of the biggest takeaways i had from the article above is that with apple, you are buying into a lifestyle. Everything is integrated, and the experience is the same across ALL hardware.

Heres to hoping for the best.
[General Questions and Answers] Cirkustanz:
I'll jump into this flame-fest......

No one uses bing. Who cares?

That fragmentation nonsense is just hilarous, and is nothing more than a person trying to laughably say they are better than someone else because they chose to use a different phone.

17 year old emo kids who hang out at the apple store all day keep shouting that. What they fail to realize is that "fragmentation" = choice. If you want that "unfragmented" same old same old android phone, it's simple....buy a nexus device. Vanilla android right out of the gate.

But if you want "fragmentation" err, excuse me, what a normal person would consider *alternative choices* you can pick up any of the dozens or android phones currently sold that have carrier and manufacturer implemented changes. Some are subtle, some are very different.

In short, you are not superior to someone else because you drive a Chevy and they drive a Ford, because you use an Android and they use Winmobile, because you have a PS3 and they have an Xbox360. There is no better, there's only what a person prefers. For them. The worst kind of person in today's society is commonly believed to be a religious zealot, going around preaching to every one else how they are wrong because they go to a different church, or they go to one at all. They believe something, so they have to try and convince the rest of the world that what they believe is superior!

No one cares. Seriously, calm down, pour the kool-aid into the sink, and listen to what you are saying.

Hold on so your saying that having touchwiz, sense, and blur help Android...
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_nlb:
its linux , get used to it.

Linux got as example Kde , Gnome etc.. never been a problem or fragmented, so having different frontends on mobile is just a company trend, until Google takes on the task to control the mobil interface, and then you're lost like users with iPhone, no chance of changes onless you got apples approval.

[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_nlb:
i am sure qualified developers can if they want to, but whats the point of removing touchwiz from a samsung model? if you can use google aosp and adapt drivers anyways?

again, companies use the opensource as they like and can use proprietary routines with the source code as google accepted that with the license used.

its as open as you want it to be platform wise, but applications/frontend/drivers are not the OS, its something companies spend alot of money on to develop, and why should those share it for free like a china community where every small company rips off the others and make illegal copies? that makes no sense.

we got room for opensource and paid development, if people got enough free time to develop something for free , i do not get the point of all donation requests around the forums.

going back to the beginning, its truly open, until a developer decides to make his work closed source, just like some in the acer a500 forum did, and that killed that section totally.

leave the closed source work to the company that pays developers to work on it. and leave the open source coding to those spending their semi-free time on doing it after they finish their professional business.

[HTC One S] RobeFortu:
Is it possible to unlock the network on the phone? And also to S-Off+Root ? I'd like to buy it at that low price
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
as of yet there is no sim unlock tool nor is there an S-OFF tool, There is HTCDev which will unlock the bootloader to allow you to flash ROMS and ROOT and CWM Recovery, But thats all your getting for now...

give it 1 - 2 weeks the development will skyrocket.
[HTC One S] RobeFortu:
So you think that they could do that?
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
Of course !! have a look around the forums, There is NOTHING these devs cant do..

The low prices on the One S are on a 2-year contract. The phone itself is $600 off contract.

But there will be root and S-Off soon as the phone comes out in a few days.

[HTC Wildfire S] nigsy116:
Ok, I have been given 4 HTC wildfires from a company that has gone into administration.

The issue I have is that all four have a numeric password lock and they have all had attempts made to access them which has resulted in them being completley locked.

My plan was to root all 4 and sell them on, but I am now stuck.

Can't root using reflash as I can't set to USB debugging and when I try to boot into recovery I get the below screen.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

HBOOT Version is 0.80.0007 if that makes any difference??
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
1. This is HTC Wildfire S Forum

2. Go into HBOOT (Remove battery, wait 1 min, insert battery, press power and vol-)

3. Do a factory reset

If that does not solve your issue:

go to htcdev and unlock your bootloader.

then flash the complete phone new
[HTC Wildfire S] nigsy116:
The issue I have is that the phones are locked so I have no way of changing settings to allow USB debugging - I need a way to get around this issue - Then I'm sure either the HTC dev fix or another fix will work.

Pulling the battery makes no difference.

Admins - Can this be moved to the correct forum please??
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
This is my device :D wrong forum bud, but you may be in luck. Are all of the phones on the 0.80 bootloader ? If they are go into bootloader like theq86 said, download the hboot. 1.01.0001 ruu from the HTC wildfire (buzz) forums for running revolutionary. Run the ruu in hboot mode and it should force the update :cool: then run the revolutionary program to s-off. Then install clockwork mod and root ;)

For going into the bootloader you need no usb debugging.

you can just go inside and chose factory reset.

For htcdev you also need no USB Debugging. Everything is made via the bootloader.

the password lock of android does not lock the bootloader.

Edit: For going into bootloader

Remove battery, wait 1 min, insert battery, press Vol- (Vol down) HOLD it and then press power button.
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
If he is going to ruu he is definitely better of going for revolutionary :D keeps the warrantys, allowing his bootloaders are all below hboot 1.01.001, if not he may have issues ...

Also a q to the op, how did you check the hboot without being in the bootloader? ?? Because with the lock on you can't access the rom?

sent from my android powered beast!
[HTC Wildfire S] nigsy116:
OK.....

The bootloader is not locked!! I have never said it is. Some one has made over 30 attempts on the lock screen!!

When I boot by holding down power and volume it tells me that HBOOT v is 0.80.0007. I have no option on this menu to do a factory reset, but if I select, recovery, I get the screen in the 1st pic.

I can not use the HTC dev tool as when I run the RUU it tells me the phone software is out of date and I need to perform an OTA update.

Unrevoked will not see my phone even though it's connected and the Android platform drivers are installed in device manager

Revolutionary will not work as my bootloader is out of date, and I'm struggling to upgrade it as I can't switch USB debugging on (Although I'm not sure I need to)

Thanks both for your help so far....anything else and I'm listening.
[HTC Wildfire S] csoulr666:
That leaves you with a few things

1)Trying using HTC Supertool......connect your phone via fastboot in the bootloader

2)Try using JTAG(wont recommend if you dont know what it is)

3)Try updating your rom by taking out "rom.zip" from the RUU and flashing this "rom.zip" via HBOOT

ok download this and place this zip file on the root of your sdcard. then boot into bootloader, it should ask you to push volume up to update. do that and you should be on hboot 1.01.001 and ready for revolutionary. repeat this for all 4 phones. then come back, hit the thanks button and tell us how good we are :D:p
[HTC Wildfire S] nigsy116:
If you have nothing constructive to offer, keep your comments to yourself.

These are from a company that went into administration and have been sat in the office desk for a month. I was asked to help uninstall the office servers and networks.

The administrator let me have the phones in Lieu of payment - so they were not exactly free, but will cost me £20 when I get my payment back.

When you go into recovery you get the phone with a red triangle, right? Press vol up +power to see the options. One of them should be wipe data/factory reset

Here is the screen I get when I'm in the bootloader:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daerragh:
Hi, I live in a place where there's very poor network coverage and my SGS often looses signal. And here's the problem: when I check battery consumption in the settings I can see that the phone is often awake (for about 1,5 hour overnight) and looses battery like 3% an hour even when I don't use it and is supposed to be asleep. Is it possible that it is searching for available networks during that time and that is why it is awake and eats battery?

I do not have data on, nor wifi or gps. I'm running SLIM 3.3 with 0.67b Devil.
