Didn't work on my Arrive. I typed a message that significantly longer than 160 characters and it still greyed out the send button and prompted "message too long."

It lists (51200) as the value....

Sorry maybe I misinterpreted. I thought this was refering to the 160 character limit. But obviously I need to read and pay attention. This is about the size of an mms message.
[HTC 7 Pro] mapaz04:
At first I was like :eek: ...

Then I was like :confused: ...

Now I'm like :D ... jejeje​

Im looking into the 160 limit... Hope I have it today... The registry is EXTREMELY long and so far, I have found many many entries but none for the character limit...

EDIT: THIS HAS BEEN FOUND, SEE FIRST POST FOR LINK!!!​

But rest asured that I am looking into that because it annoys me too... looking for that entry is how I came across this one (it reminded me of my WinMo days... jejeje)​
[HTC 7 Pro] adihere:
Good stuffs...I can't wait till it is found...surprised it hasn't been discovered by now...its almost like people have tried and run into a wall or found that it there is no "easy" registry fix for it...cuz c'mon you dont think by now someone annoyed or motivated as us hasn't done been down this path already and tried to... :confused: Yet everyone stays hush hush about it and then you get the just deal with it till there a oem release. Its a conspiracy i tell ya :eek: LOL!
[HTC 7 Pro] Zero9930:
When the unlocked ROMs first came out I sat down and probably spent a few hours searching for where this limit would be at but I couldn't find anything relevant. My guess was either a registry value was missing or it's labeled weird. Our best chance at finding this problem would probably be to ask our fellow CDMA users or 7 pro users to look through their registry and find all the values that correspond with SMS. But I haven't had the time or patience to do that :P So someone else could ask around for it and then compare it with our registry. That would be the simple way to do it I would think.
[HTC 7 Pro] leadpoizon:
I have already looked and found the proper registry entries that allow the OS to send messages over 160 characters. The message does not get sent and many minutes later you get an error that the message could not be sent. I found this by comparing settings with the Verizon Trophy settings. It seems to me that it's not a registry issue but a dll issue. The Windows Phone OS needs to do the splitting of the messages before they are sent to the network, but it does not. The Verizon network most likely supports the splitting of the messages over the network when Sprint does not. I think the fix needs to come from Microsoft since Sprint can't just go and change the way their network works. I'm guessing the reason MS hasn't done anything is because Sprint doesn't seem to want to support Windows Phones and it may not be worth it for MS to do this for only one phone. Speculations, of course.
[HTC 7 Pro] Zero9930:
What registry edits did you make out of curiosity?
[HTC 7 Pro] leadpoizon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Cellular\SMS\Router]
"CDMAConcatenation"=dword:0

Changing the above from 0 to 1 allows for the "message is too long" to go away and lets you send a longer message. This is a known registry settings among the chefs, btw. I tested others to make sure I wasn't missing anything that might work, but nothing else worked. This one is the head of the snake. There is no easy solution yet, as far as I know. MS has to make the SMS app do the concatenation process seamlessly if it is not supported by the network.

Sorry to hear your results man... Would you mind elaborating what broke when U did this tweak? That way we can start to make notes as to what works or doesn't like the and tweak.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] yahknow1:
I looked where the Samsung web page told me to look for my model number for my Galaxy 7 Plus Tab. I come up with "GT-P6210MA" Problem is, that's NOT one of the model numbers that is listed on the Sammy website!? Thankfully, so far, I've only needed to download Kies, but there may come a time where I'd really like to know my EXACT model number?

Looking in the menu under "about phone" I just get GT-P6210...Is there anyplace in the software that gives me my exact model number? All I know for sure is I have the Wi-Fi (only)version GT-P6210 16Gb.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] k_t_b:
I was a little confused by this issue also.

The only place I was able to find the full model number was on my receipt from Best Buy.

All of them start with GT-P6210MA, then end with AXAR or YXAR, etc..

When I asked a Samsung support rep. about this issue and any potential differences between the two model numbers, they said there weren't any actual differences and the slightly different codes may indicate which carriers/sellers the product is sold through.

My receipt from Best Buy said GT-P6210MAYXAR.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] mohawkx:
There is a hard plastic cover on the tablet when you first take it out of the box. It has a sticker on it that gives that actual model number. I purchased mine at Best Buy and the model number was GT-P6210MAYXAR, also.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] kurtispurgatory:
I've noticed that there are people trying to port Timescape over to the Captivate or the SGSII, but no one has asked about the Infuse. I have an Xperia X10, loved timescape, but of course the X10 didn't have enough RAM to support it well enough, either that or I just didn't know what i was doing like i thought i did. I would really love it if someone could help me get Timescape ported to the Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Never heard of timescape...looked it up on youube...i did not like the look of it all, but that could just be cause im not use to it...could be one of those things that you dont think youd like but after trying it you love it

As for why no one has wanted it ported...could be because like me they did not know what it was, or they dont want it

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiedroid666:
this is the first time i'm trying to flash a custom rom. I can't seem to install cyanogen 7.1.0. I tried flashing the file named "update-cm-7.1.0-encore-signed.zip" using twrp recovery. But I get this error in recovery saying " installing update

assert failed: get prop "ro.product.device" =="

Error in E:temp/side load/package.zip (status 7)

And then I reboot to my stock Ics. My nexus s is running the matr1x kernel. Nexus s I9020.

Has this got any thing to do with the fact that my phone was running the stock ics prior to being rooted?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graham19:
Are you sure you have downloaded the correct file?

I thought that the nexus s file contained the word "crespo"
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiedroid666:
Sorry. My bad. I downloaded the wrong file. I later downloaded the crespo file and its working fine now.

Thanks for responding though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] paulalara:
I want to room the T-mobile Mytouch 3G with 3.5MM headphone jack that was upgraded to Android 2.2.1 which turned the phone into an expensive paperweight. I want to root it so that I can downgrade it back to 2.1.1, whic h ran GREAT on the phone. Can anyone help me in instruction on how to root the phone, but wher to get an android version of 2.1.1.

What ROM do you have now? Does your phone load normally?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Fasst2001:
Okay, I know this is a weird question, but does anyone have a Titanium Backup of Angry Birds Rio that is complete with all trophies and 3 stars that you could send me? I had trouble with my TF101 after I rooted and tried to install the latest ICS update. I had to unroot, reflash a stock HC rom and reflash the stock recovery. Somewhere in that, it formatted my internal memory and I lost everything including my Titanium Backups. Grrrr! I lost progress in other games like Angry Birds Seasons and Plants vs Zombies too, but I'd be happy to just get Rio back. My three year old likes to play Rio and play all the bosses and jump around to all the levels. He's pretty angry (no pun intended ;)) that I lost all of it after I spent a couple months completing them all and I really don't want to do it again. Can anybody help?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
That's all we get around here is wierd questions, so no worries.

This is what I use to unlock AB and AB Seasons and it is free (root)

This is to unlock AB Rio. Not free and haven't tried it. Just searched the market but I am sure there are others too.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Guardsix:
What's the impact of having two launchers fully loaded on my TFP?

I'm trying to decide between Nova Launcher and Apex Launcher. I've loaded both with 5 screens stocked with widgets and apps. I don't seem to be having a problem switching between the two but I might be missing some other impact others have experienced.

Currently, I'm using Nova Launcher since it allows me to use more of the screen.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ShelW:
Shouldn't be any issue.

There's a program that will let you switch between Launchers, but I can't remember the name.

If you install a 2nd launcher and don't choose one as the default, you'll simply have to specify which launcher you want to go to, every time you choose Home.
[Captivate General] evancrador:
So I somehow screwed up my phones ability to use wifi. I have already googled this for days and couldn't find anything helpful.

This is what I did:

I had originally rooted my phone (Samsung Captivate i897) when it had Froyo 2.2 but later upgraded to Gingerbread 2.3.5 via Kies.

[EDIT] (I don't know why, but I thought that I had GB 2.3.3)

A few days ago, I discovered that I know longer had superuser access and looked into it; sure enough, my phone was no longer rooted. I decided to root it again.

I put my phone into download mode w/ debug mode on and used-

Odin3 v1.7 and flashed the file "I897UCKF1-AutoRoot-DesignGears.tar"

All seemed good...until I went to enable the wifi.

Whenever I try, It turns on and automatically begins scanning for networks (normal). After a few seconds it disconnects wifi without so much as a warning.

I really need my phone's wifi back! I use it a lot in my programming classes. PLEASE HELP ME!!! YOU GUYS ARE MY LAST HOPE!!!!!

[EDIT] Also, I believe that this root was for 2.3.3. Not sure if that could be the problem and yes...I am an idiot...
[Captivate General] Red_81:
That kernel is not meant to be used full time. You need to flash back to the original kernel.

Root instructions
[Captivate General] evancrador:
I will try this and then check back...

[EDIT]

IT WOOOOOORKED!!!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CAPSLOCK!!!!!1!11!11

Seriously though, you really saved me there!
[Captivate General] MrBooMY:
Lol extra heads help sometimes. Had to do the same for my friends rezound
[Captivate General] Red_81:
Happy to help. You can also flash other kernels such as Corn that already have root access.

Also, in the future, questions need to go in the Q&A section not in General.
[HTC Rezound] DronM:
Flashed on the ICS (http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...id-4-0-build-3-11-605-22-for-the-htc-rezound/), now settings made by *#*#4636#*#* reset after reboot to LTE((.

On the old firmware everything was fine.

What should I do?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
What is your end goal? Turning off LTE?

Well stock GB run almost perfect till one day, than there came FCs on apps etc
[Galaxy S II General] thracemerin:
When your purchased your SGS2 you were entitled to the stock Samsung ROM that came with it, plus any updates Samsung put out for your carrier and region, that's it, nothing more. It was nice that Samsung decided to push out ICS for this phone model, but they were under no obligation to do so, they could have easily said sorry if you want ICS buy a new phone, but they didn't. To take this one step further, none of the custom ROM devs owe you anything, the fact that they work hard in their spare time to make ROMs, buggy or not is totally up to them, if the ROM has bugs, switch to another, if you can't find one you like, develop your own, don't come here and complain about it.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Well to be honest it's not GSII's fault but Androids.

Some simple facts people/Droid fans try to ignore hardly,

Q- Which OS freezes the most in a month/year/mostly?

A- Android.

Q- Which OS'es applications FC'es the most?

A- Android.

Q- Which OS taught you to ignore battery life?

A- Android.

Q- Which OS will run on it's own mood?

A- Android.

Q- On which OS you won't be able to depend on?

A- Android.

Period.

So enough of Android experience for me. I use phone for serious purposes, not for show off or anything.
[Galaxy S II General] BJ van Beethoven:
Can't say I've had the same experience as you running any ROMs. Try CheckROM v6.
[Galaxy S II General] nomikSqash:
-Battery issue, is not issue, using stock rom+root only =Iphone use

The point here is that android can customize it, and make it more juicy than the other OC's out there is.

FC is only due to the customization you do. Confirming again, stock rom is smooth as butter, but without tweak that might cause the FC.

That is all about android, and sgs2 specifically (due to 2cores), you have to make it your own, with tweak, undervolting, launchers, apps, lockscreens replacement, I/O sheduler, and so on, but this ofcource cause the FC, since the OC is not perfect, and after you installed rom, waranty is gone.

Dude, it is simple, it depends how you see it, you can leave it 'plain' and be happy, but you can try to make it amazing :)

Right now using checkrom v6+NEAK kernel+Magic config+Supercharge v6 RC 8.

To say the true it is amazing, i have tried 7 different ICS rom, for me speciffically they are awful, i can't stand to hurt my beauty.

Just try to do absolutely wipe of your system, external and internal sd_cards + instal plain stock rom and sthan installing rom you wish, that's all about it.
[Galaxy S II General] trveller72:
May be your phone (or better, your system partition)?

Just a few points:

1. On GB (also Android) with Hyperdroid - no bug, smooth and fast, battery 2 days easly (not very high usage: a few calls, some bluetooth, sync evry hour on 2 email accounts, screen On time 2 hours).

2. On CM9 with Siyah 3.0.1

- no one FC

- no SODs

- everything I installed works

- camera ok - pictures and movies

- same usage as per 1 - I charge the phone every 2nd day.

3. May I ask how is the battery on Xperia?

4. If you thuoght you will get a small laptop and also make calls, I can see why you are so upset.

As you said, just my impressions.
[Galaxy S II General] Chimaine:
Only people that flash somthing they dont understand and complain afterwards here.

If you want a stable experience, stay on stock. If you go into Flashland, you cant expect mommy to hold your hand...

This thread is simply people raging about something that is, in the end, their own fault.

If you want good custom ROMS go for those that are not in a beta state like ICS ones... E.g. HyperDroid.
[Galaxy S II General] goldenr:
@ thracemerin

I dont want to jugde anyone, i know ure right! No one is paying to people who develop roms here and they share them for free! That is good obviously! and i believe they will make perfect roms one day!

1. im dissapointed on Android who ever make it

2. id like to knwo if there is a rom that is better than stock
[Galaxy S II General] victorator:
Do a full wipe. Format system data cache, dalvik. Go to odin and flash the frankenstein xwla4 and then tell me there are no good roms for S2.

And stop using custom kernels, not only are they buggy they drain more battery and do not function properly!!

If you ant GB go for kk5 , la2 or la4.

If you prefer ICS go for frankenstein xwlp8.

All of them are really great roms, working without any problems.

@ rdubyah

i live in countryside and that phone was expensive! thats all! :p
[Galaxy S II General] bazzag:
I used stock 2.3.5 for about 4 months and had a grand total of 2 FCs. Remember, there are tons of buggy apps that can wreak havoc to your phone. Also, If you get frequent freezes/reboots, it could point to a hardware issue.
[Galaxy S II General] goldenr:
@trveller72

my x8 lasts for 24h on normal use.. gaming, few calls, more than few emails, 1h gaming, listening to music 2h
[Galaxy S II General] gchindi:
so u say u have used checkrom v6, stock theme with jkay settings, its almost complete man.....!

for that matter, nothing is perfect in this world, android is the last thing we should think of being perfect in that list.

i agree with u, the days of nokia 3310, 1100, samsung R220, was so much comfortable for most of us, no software issue, nothing to update regularly, just use the way it comes out of the box till it dies, i really, really miss those days...

more than using the phone nowadays, we think about updating it, making it bugfree and testing it all through the day, costed us the peace of life!!

believe me, i would buy a new out of the box nokia1100 if i get it and will throw away the so called smartphone which has no respect to my personal life/time.

so now relax and play Temple Run game on ur android, its fairly new to droid and update if your phone freezes/gets hot/reboots:D
[Galaxy S II General] goldenr:
Thank you guys for information!

I was not that much into android, especially SGS2 things.

I just shared my impressions over time!

yes, it would be nice for extra info so i can make much better expierance, thanks already got basic things! ;)
[Galaxy S II General] snappy123:
Cm9 is smooth reliable quick etc best ics rom hands down

Oh did I mention battery life??? 5hrs on screen, if I don't play around with the phone and leave it I get about 95 - 98% deep sleep

What more could you want??
[Galaxy S II General] DreadPirateDan:
I'm confused... why not just not get an android phone? :confused:

Perhaps you should have a gander at some of the other phones available like a windows phone or something. I've heard plenty of people say they really like it in comparison to android/IOS. However, all of them have gone on to note that they miss out on alot of apps that make it to android, and then a whole lot of apps that only make it to ios. So a HTC-HD2 dual boot sorta thing might be the way to go :D
[Galaxy S II General] D4rKn3sSyS:
If you are used to linux environment, android is the best for you

If you still like windows, buy an Iphone (not saying iphone is windows), or use stock ROM that comes with your phone, and get it to tech service every time you see something wrong. As easy as that.

Android ROM's are stable. People it's too exigent.

No offense to OP, just telling my opinion too.

EDIT: Oh! the battery!, do you complain because your laptop lasts 4 hours ? NO, well, then dont complain because your phone lasts 12 hour. It's just like that. Processor, ram, and screen, needs battery, simple logic, just charge it everyday.

EDIT2: Also, I consideer that your X8 (MDPI device), will just drain a lot less of battery than a HDPI device. I had an x10 mini pro (LDPI wtf), and it was like 3 days on. If it's that what you want, get a nokia 1100, they get a week of juice :p

OK, could u suggest me any CM9?
[Galaxy S II General] Testraindrop:
Dont know if you are trolling, if so -> iOS is your way to go.

If not, something is wrong with your Device/Partition.

I used many different Roms, unless I forced them (undervolting :D) all were very stable.

I used Checkrom V6 almost a month without a reboot and hadn't no FCs or Errors whatsoever.

2-3 Days battery, 1 day with very heavy usage (playing games all the time).

Now I'm on D4 with Android 4.0.4, no stability issues here either, although its a AOSP Rom in a very early development stage.
[Galaxy S II General] boias21:

Try not using ROMS that still have bugs if you dont like them. Or use a stock rom. So either your way way to picky or your phone is ****ed up

Instead of whining, do something about it yourself then. Or realise the effort to simply get a rom to boot and appreciate what is available to you.
