Hi all

Wondering if anybody can recommend any signal monitor apps that work properly with the One X. Almost every single one I've tried fails to report loss of signal, and those with access to signal strength data or graphs show a continuous -99dBm.

I had one that was working (Traffic Monitor by RadioOpt GmbH) but an update a couple of weeks ago took the QoS monitor out of both the free and paid versions.

I have an extremely frustrating problem with regular signal dropouts of anywhere from a few seconds to multiple minutes with my One X, even in locations that show three bar signal much of the time, without me moving the phone. Disabling and reenabling the radio seems to restore service almost all the time. I've also had one total dropout for a 24 hour period which even enabling then disabling airplane mode didn't cure, which was fixed with a reboot. I'm trying to troubleshoot where the problem lies; other phones don't show great signal in the same location either, but they work just fine.

Unfortunately, I've lost the only tool I can find that will show a graph of signal strength or even alert me when my phone drops to "emergency service only".

Anybody? I'm still battling problems with my phone, and it would be really helpful if anybody could chip in and say if they've found a single app that can monitor GSM signal strength on our phones...

Thanks, I've tried that one and it gives me a continuous -99dBm, regardless of whether the phone claims to have five bars or no signal at all.

Looking at getting the quad core international version of the HTC One X.

Just wanted to know what all will work on

1. 3G?

2. HSPA+?

3. Regular voice calls?

Please use search within the forum, this subject has been discussed previously.
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
Voice calls and 2G data. That's it.

Unless you live in certain parts of California that have the 1900mhz band refarmed to 3G, this is ALL you will get.
[HTC One X] apollostees:
Thanks for the straight answer mate.
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
If you really want it, you can use a hotspot like I am. The hotspot is small and the battery lasts about ~10 hours. I just connect my One X to it, throw it in my back pack and forget about it for the day :)
[HTC One X] MrMinh:
Do you have to buy the $14.99/month smartphone hotspot plan or a seperate hotspot plan with the router?
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
You have to buy a separate hotspot plan..
[HTC One X] jonshipman:
Of course if you do the hotspot you don't need data service on tour phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] aliasneo:
Hi, I am new to the new android world and so far loving it over the stupid crackberry I was stuck with for the longest time. I'm fairly certain I've rooted it (unlocked it using these steps, have superuser icon), but now I'm overwhelemed on which android version or rom to stick with and using which mods. I was hoping someone can give some recommendations based on my requirements:

- I need full camera use, twitter and social media is kind of my job, I wish I was kidding (so Im guessing ICS is out of the question, unless you can convince me otherwise)

- Flash support would be nice (I see links to it to the big sticky, but I'm simply stating my requirements and asking what version would be best for it)

- I would love it to be fast and saving battery life.

- I prefer stability over something that seems like theres a lot of work left to do on it

- I will be using it to listen to music once in a while

- I will probably use a lot of apps so ensuring theyre all on the SD card will be cool (on sticky, I know)

I sincerely hope this isn't an annoying post. Seems like I'd be fine with using a variant of 2.3.6 as 2.3.7 didn't seem like it added a lot. Thanks in advance

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RevivedHTC:
Long time listener, first time caller.

I have the latest hboot 1.45.0013, S-On, Unlocked with HTC Dev Tool.

I used the Hasoon2000 tool to install SU, CWM, and a recovery image. I then used the instructions in the thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1508556) to install ICS and obtain root installing pyr-o-ice sense 1.1.1 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1469615) Everything worked, created nandroid backup and installed titanium.

Some buttons didn't work, so I looked for updates and found Virtuous ROMs. So, I used CWM to clear dalvic, flashed boot image of the Virtuous Inquisition then used CWM to install zip. Bootloop. ROM just hangs on black screen with white V for 15 to 20 minutes.

MT4GS thread stated that Primadonna and Inquisition were comparable, so I followed the same proceedure, flashed Primadonna boot image then installed ROM through CWM. This time there was tmobile splash screen, but the same system hang.

At this point I tried to restore a recovery, but CWM could not find one. Used Astro to delete all boot images from SD root, assuming this may be the problem, and flashed a Virtuous ROM again. Same problem.

Based on this thread, I thought it might be the kernal, and tried flashing the pyr-o-ice boot image that worked initially. (http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1628171.html). No dice. CWM could not install the ROM (error 1)

So, at this point, I used CWM factory reset and wipe all data. And of course that made things worse, because the SD card with recoveries was wiped. I used adb to push the recoveries from Hansoon's toolkit, but stock recovery was not available (red triangle screen hang) and cwm could not mount the SD card.

So, at this point I used CWM to format SD card (blank anyway), and at this point adb failed to recognize the decive and I could no longer fastboot into recovery or hboot through adb. (volume down + power stopped working with pyr-o-ice install)

if i remove the battery and hold power + volume while using an adb reboot hboot command i can get into hboot about every 10th attempt. adb doesn't recognize the device ("waiting on device", or adb devices yields a blank list); however the phone in hboot will transfer to usb fastboot when connected with a cable.

i looked at pushing a zip file through adb to the sd root, but that was ineffective (adb does have write access to the sd root, maybe because i am s-on?). i purchased a second sd card, and copied the recovery images from hansoons toolkit and rebooted into recovery. still went to tmobile splash, followed by V-screen bootloop.

i looked at placing a stock ruu on the sd and naming the file PG59IMG.zip, but because i'm S-on i can't flash radios, so that's out.

So, here we are. Iffy access to fastboot, 2 sd cards, a lot of determination, and a persistent bootloop.

Can someone, PLEASE help me?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
AFAIK, you cannot flash the boot.img with CWM if you are S-ON, you *MUST* use Fastboot to flash that. So, before you messed it all up, if you had just extracted the boot.img from the ROM and flashed it using Fastboot, it likely would have worked just beautifully.

Try booting into recovery and doing a regular flash of the ROM, THEN a fastboot flash of the boot.img.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RevivedHTC:
SOLVED!!

Thanks to the folks heading up the HTC Unbricking Project (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1627881) ESPECIALLY Dexter93!! who patiently unraveled this for me, and Blue6IX for the Restore to Stock instructions in the Developers Reference Guide (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17424340&postcount=24) I'm back to stock, and ready to try it all again!

Can someone send me an apk that automatically clicks the thanks button for selected developers at regular intervals?

Thanks again!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RevivedHTC:
Solved???

Fuzi0719, thanks for your reply. I may have written this inappropriately, but what coded in the command prompt was "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

The ROM zip file was placed on the SD card, and I rebooted into recovery, and used CWM to install zip from SD. I'm new to this so I may have used the wrong term for installing the zip through CWM, the boot image file was always handled through the above command.

I'm back to "stock" at this point, but when I boot into the bootloader, the phone looks for PG59DIAG.zip and PG59DIAG.nbh before PG59IMG.zip.

It then asks if I want to install the update. (This is after I have already installed the "update", and the phone reset itself even with my old wallpaper.) When I got to the home screen there was a white circle in upper left corner of the status bar, with "check content" message. Each time the screen locked (default 30 seconds) unlocking it took me to the mytouch splash screen with the green circle and white background for about 10 seconds before resuming.

Each time I check to see if the phone registers requiring any updates. It doesn't. Two installs of the PG59IMG.zip. "recovery" eliminates the unlock splashscreen, and wiped any customizations. However, the phone will not manually boot into the bootloader; I have to use adb. Hboot reinstalls the PG59IMG.zip as an update every time.

If I accept it reboots within seconds like a fresh doubleshot. If I decline the "update" it reboots to the Tmobile MyTouch 4G Slide text splash screen, then moved to the green circle screen for a few minutes before I get to the homescreen.

Blue6IX was looking for help with these last month (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580077), so maybe they are just extraction files that HTC sends with the OTA update that would prevent my phone from trying to install the "update" every time?

In any case, my question at this point is after coming from such an unstable point with my phone, is this what every relocked bootloader does? Or, is this a problem that means something else is still wrong with the system? Because taking it back to stock has not solved this.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Thanks for clarifying, you wouldn't believe the number of people who fail to follow that one simple step of fastboot flashing the boot.img, so that's why I stated that. So, now you have the phone relocked, and running a stock ROM (the 1.55?), but with CWM 5.0.2.7? Were you wanting to update to the 1.63 ROM? I'm unclear on what it is you want to do. For one thing, if you've already flashed the PG59IMG then I would delete it off the sd card so it doesn't keep trying to load it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RevivedHTC:
Yup.

It was just that simple.

Mainly I wanted to make sure that my phone was stable before I went back to unlock the bootloader, etc.

Went back to HTC, got a new token (just in case), and I'm creating a nandroid backup right now. Thanks.

I really appreciate it.

Hopefully the next time I get stuck, it's just as simple to fix, but far less embarrassing.

[HTC EVO 3D] babyschmoof:
I'm running a rom with ics and and sense 4. Although there are a fee bugs, it's works darn good. So my question is, why is our official sprint rom going to be Ics with sense 3.6?
[HTC EVO 3D] dlads:
Probably because they began work on the evo 3d and sensation when sense 4 didn't exist, or maybe it's a marketing ploy to get people to buy their new phones.

Chances are it's the latter of the two.

Give it time and we'll probably have sense 4 running with 3D cam, i can't ever see games working personally but i think it's a small price to pay.
[HTC EVO 3D] ace9988:
sense 4 contains something called 'ImageSense'. Its a hardware related piece of software which is why other "legacy" handsets aren't getting it. Only the new devices from the one series onwards are officially getting it.

sooner or late once they figure out the components for what we need for a sense 4 ROM to work with our devices then we'll get the ROM mashups we all need and want ( Sense 4.0 + 3D camera + 3D screen) .....till then we're stuck with 3.6
[HTC EVO 3D] babyschmoof:
I believe the Rom I loaded is sense 4. It's actually nice and light weight.
[HTC EVO 3D] ace9988:
yes but it doesn't include the imagesense hardware and software that htc are talking about. Those have been removed by the devs who port these things to our device.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnugo:
I want to revert setting made with setcpu on my htc desire. But i uninstalled app several times, even change rom, but frequencies are not default. I`m using RunnymedeROM. Is it possible that this ROM automaticaly comes with kernel that overclock CPU?

My question is: What do i have to do to revert CPU settings to default? If i have to do it manualy, what are min/max freq and governor by default?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Yes there are times roms comes in with overclocked settings.

Default settings as far as I am aware are as follows:

Governor: Ondemand

Min Freq: 245MHz
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnugo:
I tried everything. Reinstalled several times, uninstalled too. Clear data but everythime my settings get back to 1113Mhz, and thats not default freq for htc desire. Is there some universal method to get back defult settings for htc desire?

Does reflashing or installing new ROM revert settings? Or maybe hard reset?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
Check if it is default frequency range for that rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Im not certain but some roms have Daemon Controller app to set frequencies. And most roms I flashed with that app installed are usually overclocked. You may wanna check if your rom has it.

via xda app
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
Yeah runnymede aio has daemon controller app and is set to 998mhz like u said and if u install setcpu in overides daemon so if u have the daemon controller app just change it to what u want and press apply then reboot and check to make sure the changes r the same.

(uninstall setcpu first)

Hi everyone, I've got a BIG problem with my sbk2 TF101.

I don't know why but I cannot access the Recovery. I don't know if it is actually installed or not, but I cannot access it nor I can flash it with CWM Manager or Recovery Installer

-When I restart, it simply stucks at the EEE logo.

-I cannot boot in recovery with any of the apps made for this;

-Every time I want to start the tablet, I need to start it using cold-boot (first, vol- and power, and then vol+), because it seems to be always starting in recovery.

-Without recovery I cannot flash a new recovery or a new rom, and I'm stucked with an AOKP cooked in the firsts days of may (I don't remember the name)

-I've got random and frequent reboots, freezes, and can't do something for more than 5 min because the tablet freezes.

-Standard voltages.

-My tablet is not recognized when I plug it in Windows or Mac OSX, didn't try with Ubuntu.

Please help me!

Thank you very much in advance for your great help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Don't do any wipes, as that may be unrecoverable. I don't see why recovery installer isn't working, you should have root. Sounds like some stuff is seriously messed up. You can try using flash_image to manually flash a recovery.img with ADB or with a virtual terminal, that's about all I can think of now. Find the boot.img, and flash_image files and put them on root of SD and run appropriate commands, more info should be in recovery dev sections.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wanzer:
First of all, thanks a lot for trying helping me.

The problem is that I don't know how to use ADB or wich commands should I use or where I could find the boot.img. Using a virtual terminal means running a trminal on the tablet? Can I use the internal memory instead of an SD card? I can confirm I've still got root, by the way.
