[Motorola Droid RAZR] craichead:
I have heard of Foxfi, and I will look into that, so thank you for the suggestion. But, I am still interested in the setting that I described for two reasons. First, other Incredible users have reported slow wifi speeds when using a 3rd party app as opposed to Verizon's 3G Mobile Hotspot (or just Mobile Hotspot on the Maxx), although I have not heard anything about speed with a 3rd party app on the Razr Maxx. Second, I am just interested in knowing more about my phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sRDennyCrane:
Perhaps someone can answer your specific questions about settings, however, I will talk a little more about FoxFi- speeds on 4G are ridiculously fast. I ran FoxFi on my Maxx and my Acer Iconia tablet was getting over 25mbps down speeds and 14mbps up.

It's not a perfect app. Occasionally, you'll have to stop and restart the hotspot to get your device to "see" your Razr, but overall, it's great... and once connected, rock solid.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Stick_man09:
Additionally, it appears to me that fox fi somehow uses the phones native Hotspot connection but bypasses it. I used to use Wi-fi tether rooted on my last phone and I never saw phones hotspot pop up. But on the RAZR unrooted, I can also affirm that the previously mentioned speeds are real and accurate. The app is great.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] droidxrooting:
Never had problems with foxfi and resetting it. The speed that you get trough the phone/tablet apps are artificial.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
Well I just finally rooted a few days ago and installed Wifi Tether and it works right out of the box, but based on recommendations here I decided to try Foxfi and it connected but it had some error in windows (which on the Foxfi page they say to run the internet repair wizard) well I ran the wizard and the problem persisted so instead of trying to trouble shoot I just went the easy way and use Wifi Tether.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] craichead:
I installed Foxfi. The first time I connected to it, I had no internet access. But the second time and since then it has worked fantastically. I am very happy with this solution, and I thank those of you who have suggested the app to me. If anyone has any ideas, it would still be nice, however, to know about the NAI settings and if they're accessible/editable. Just for tinkering's sake. :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blcklab:
Does anyone know how foxfi speed compares to native tethering speed that rooted RAZR users might enjoy?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bpl0477:
wifi

I rooted my raxr and used sql to change entitlement to (0) but my hotspot will not work always comes up with an error message. I have tried to use foxfi, open garden, barnacle and default tether. Do you have any suggestions to offer my phone info is 6.12.181.xt912, and running 2.3.6
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
I just used Wifi Tether https://play.google.com/store/apps/...S5nb29nbGVjb2RlLmFuZHJvaWQud2lmaS50ZXRoZXIiXQ.. didn't change any setting at all (literally rooted using droidrazrutility 1.40 to root then installed wifi teher, open app and hit the start button) and I was up and going in no time flat, same system as you.

foxfi is no good

'I tried using foxfi after rooting because I didn't know the settings to change for the bypass of subscription check for stock hot spot... the foxfi was so slow on all devices.. I have the paid version with the KEY and it still is super slow.. It is almost like it is using a Bluetooth connection to send data it is so slow... after I found the correct setting changes on my 4.2.2 droid maxx the speeds doubled
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] milkytron:
So I had an upgrade yesterday and I wanted the One X but unfortunately none were available at any stores around me. So I got a Vivid for the time being and plan on returning it when the One X returns. I just wanted to know if there was a sure fire way to flash back to factory settings/stock ICS before I go about trying all these different ROMs. Thanks guys.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ideaLduK:
Well you can always run your carriers RUU but I am not sure of it puts the bootloader back into Locked or Relocked

[Android Apps and Games] OstrichSak:
Anyone see that there's an update to the Paypal app that includes the following text:

"Added new rules for check capture and add funds according to requirements from the US Department of Treasury."

Wha?!?

Does anyone know what these requirements specifically are? How does these 'requirements' affect the end user? I also assume that one needs to accept this and update the app to capture any more checks. I read the user agreement on the Paypal website and they don't give any details either. Anyone else bothered by these new 'requirements' that can't be specified anywhere? :mad:

[HTC Sensation] jazzzzzzz:
How to add htc widgets such as clock,weather and music in other roms such as cyanogenmod,MIUI and any non sense roms.?
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Pretty much every none of the stock widgets will run on AOSP roms. HTC widgets require Sense framework to run. Many look alikes exist in the Play store. Search and figure out which works for you.

There are "Sense-less" roms that still have the framework, but are stripped down to look like AOSP. Flash a few and figure out what you like :-)
[HTC Sensation] K i d:
Pretty much what jimmah said, IMO it's the only thing that I think would bind people to sense, other than some of the other superior apps like the camera..

I can't update it since the market is telling me that its not compatible for my device.

help?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CJCord:
Not sure, but i would try standard methods like deleting cache of market and reboot. I once had the problem, that the market didnt recognise apps that have been pushed around by app2sd or L2SD (you use some of them?)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Harry GT-S5830:

Yes my arc s after the ICS update started heating up on the top backside of the phone.It is with ICS since the nordic update was released and it didnt have any problems so far just the heating

If you're s-off then don't HAVE to lock the bootloader, it still works with an unlocked bootlader as well.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleventy4:
I have never been one to make an "oh my god help me" thread on a site like this. I thought I followed everything as it should have been done. But apparently not. Here's my story.

Flashed over CM 7.2 and the install went perfectly. I installed Google Apps and everything was fine. I then wanted all of my backed up apps and data back. So I went into CWM and told it to restore data. I rebooted, and dear god, everything is crashing. I get 15-30 force closes right off the bat, ADW is crashing, and things are going batcrap insane. Any idea what I did wrong or how to fix it? Thank you so much in advance for anyone with some wisdom on this topic.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLostSoulxX:
I would start fresh again and use either TB or MyBackUp Pro, I use MyBackUp Pro and love it simple ui simplicity, restores apps, data including settings, sms, mms, contacts, etc....
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleventy4:
Thanks for the super fast reply! Do you think I need to like... start OVER over? I guess this is a rhetorical question... I'm gonna wipe data and cache and whatnot, and restore data again before even rebooting the phone. I may have confused it by registering Google Play and downloading a couple of apps (Rom Toolbox and My Backup Pro) before restoring my data. Maybe I confused it... I'll report back my findings for anyone in the future who encounters this issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLostSoulxX:
No but ODIN does help re fresh everything but not needed you can just wipe cache, dalvik, factory reset. And start from there.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleventy4:
Thanks for the help and suggestions! I fixed it. Factory reset, cleared cache and dalvik, and used Titanium to restore everything app by app. My Backup Root didn't work as well, since I couldn't go piece by piece. Thanks again, everything is working perfectly and I now know the joy of my first real ROM :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLostSoulxX:
What do you mean piece by piece?

The way I do it is install my backup and save the apk version so when I restore phone I download a file manager install and restore apps. When you backup apps you just save it as apks only. And save data and it restores properly. But whatever haha.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eleventy4:
Well, it let me decide exactly which apps to restore, since I guess I had backed up so many times that I wouldn't have even had room... It allowed me to go app by app and decide which ones to restore, along with the respective data, as well as doing all the system data at once. It was really quite nice. But I was being stubborn and thought for some reason restoring from CWM was the best route, so thanks for the redirection :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Your mistake was restoring data from a nandroid (CWM). It restores system data as well. Unless it is a known good nandroid and basically the same firmware (ie. Touchwiz EL30 to Touchwiz EL30, CM7 RC2 to CM7 RC3) you should not use that to restore data. Glad you got everything working again.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] mrsmiles:
since i just signed up i cant really post in the development thread anyways what i did was update the tab to stock ics, rooted, unlocked and flashed the flexreaper rom, what i didn't do was create a backup of the tab before flashing, if i wanted to go back to stock ics how would i do this? is it as simple as flashing the update.zip? or is there more to it then that?

on a side note if civato happens to read this, just want to mention that the link to the RF1-Default-Look is not working.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] cheeb:
Yes...its as simple as flashing the update.zip

only thing is that when you flash the stock ics your bootloader will be relocked and you will have to go through the process again (which you should know isn't that difficult) to unlock it...there is a way to flash by removing some files from the stock ics rom...but i cant locate that method at the moment..
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] mrsmiles:
cool thanks, really just wanted to make sure, before i did something i shouldn't have.

dont plan on reflashing at this point unless something messes up.

[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I couldn't really find a useful answer but,

I sync my contacts via Facebook app and the exchange, but my contact photos like NEVER update. I tried resyncing many times but it still doesn't. Does anyone know how to make them update? I'm on Ineff GB btw

Also is there a way to automatically import the contacts to Google or do I have to manually enter them? Thx :D
[HTC Rezound] koukirydr:
I have several Rezounds and I noticed this on GB also. ICS ROMs update fine for me.

What I do is unlink my contact whose photo I want updated, back out of contacts, then go back in to the Google contact and link up their Facebook contact. It's a pain but the other way is to logout of Facebook, which loses all links, and then sign in again. Wait a while for linking to happen.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Dang... That's lame. I've never had this problem on another phone with GB... I wonder if its the Rom?
[HTC Rezound] koukirydr:
Yea its pretty lame. I'm on CleanROM 1.7.5.

It syncs perfectly on my HTC Flyer with GB and Honeycomb.

Also the Thunderbolt and Incredible sync fine. Just not my primary Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
It also doesn't show a good bit of photos. Just shows a blank. Bleh annoying how it works whenever it wants to which is pretty much never. At one point I had all of my contacts working and updating and such.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i started using haxsync..actually bought it...then i realized everytime you reboot the phone or soemthing, haxsync pics turn into **** quality 96x96 or so pics for some reaosn (because HTC seems to create thumbnails and use those as the main pic instead of the high res pic) aaaaand the developer says he has no idea how to fix it basically.

dollar totally wasted lol
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Lololol. It actually helps to completely logout of Facebook and delete HTC Sync or w/e from facebooks allowed applications thing. I think all my contact pictures actually loaded this time. They probably won't update though.

Edit: nope it didn't lol. I guess they will still trickle in though. Some of the ones that were missing did load though. For some reason it instantly finds like 30, but I have way more than that. Hmmm

[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I tried it and it doesn't do anything at all for me... I think its broken lol
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
don't use sync my pics because that sets the pics to their Google contacts, and if you sync your contacts to Google, those pics will be ****ty 96x96 because Google developers are a bunch of assholes who keep ignoring our requests since the start of android to raise the damn limit so it's not a pixelated mess.
[HTC Rezound] jackpot08:
Try friendcaster
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
i'm actually rockin freindcaster now. it doesn't sync my own contact tohugh, weird.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I used to use friendcaster pro for a long time before the Facebook app finally updated to the new style on android. It always worked well as I remember. I think ill install it again to see what's changed actually.

I think the contact names have to be an exact match for them to auto link. I went through and changed like 20 of them, now they work. Dunno of they will update though
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
friendcaster is now syncing low quality pics just like haxsync....sigh. i think its an HTC problem
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Lol. Even with the high resolution setting checked? Friend caster still gives me errors and doesn't do basic things... It looks really nice now though
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
friendcaster shouldn't be causing issues. the latest version has working sync and high res photos for me. saves your battery more since it has better interval settings
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
yeah, it's absolutely terrible. they're a pixelated mess even wtih high quality on..it's wierd man
[HTC Rezound] godsmacked4653:
Are you guys using Twitter?

I sort of have this issue, except my Twitter contact icons look terrible. *Sometimes* the Facebook icons sync and look great, and then sometimes Sense thinks the Twitter icons are better... And they're not. Even after manually setting it to use the Facebook or Google pictures, as soon as I get a text from the contact, it'll revert to the Twitter icon.

So now my contacts are a mix of hi-res pics, ****ty Twitter pictures, and blank pictures.

Sense 3.6, not 4.0, fwiw.

It's a permissions issue on the contact photo files themselves. I remember using a fix that involved MySQL or something and a command line copy/paste. I'll scrounge around and see if I can find it. After using this my facebook contact photos sync perfectly with Handcent SMS and everything else.
