[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] JOFTAA:
I called T-Mobile, today. I have the 6200L. T-Mobile started offering unlimited 3G/4G for $20 a month, so I signed up. Turns out that I can only use Edge with this model when using T-Mobile. This is what the T-Mobile tech rep told me, anyway.

I read the info above this post, so I want to confirm. Does GT-P6200L work with 3G/4G using T-Mobile, or not? If so, I need to make some config change. If not, I have to find a new model of tablet to use. I am not going to go back into the dark ages and settle with Edge. Why on Earth would T-Mobile do this, anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] FMAranda:
No, T-Mobile uses 1.700MHz for 3G right now, but it should work on the new 1.900MHz frequency that T-Mobile is deploying, that's because they want the iPhone to be compatible with their 3G. For now only some regions are covered by the 1.900MHz 3G, here you can read more: http://www.gsmarena.com/tmobile_usa_running_1900mhz_3g_in_some_areas_iphones_invited-news-3537.php

4G will never work since it's the LTE technology and our tablet doesn't support it.

hello

is it possible to set 3g (hsdpa) to be automatically enabled only when browsing the internet? not when widgets updates or something, but only when browsing the internet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcampori:
It should be possible with tasker (or any other automation app) if aosp helper is installed, afaik. It is possible with cm7, I don't know about cm9.

definitely NOT possible with stock roms.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salas2324:
Juice defender does that. Any ROM

Sent from my M886
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lcampori:
not really: http://www.juicedefender.com/compare/, at least stable juice defender. It is clearly stated that only JD Ultimate can switch networks ONLY if aosp helper ("compatible ROMS") is installed.

juice defender BETA installs a new helper, but it is experimental and thus it is highly recommended to do a nand backup before installation since it can mess things up.

I did not dare trying so I cannot tell.

If you are brave enough, go try it. follow instructions at http://feedback.latedroid.com/forum...ions/1053767-aosp-helper-all-you-need-to-know

also check http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329196.

edit: I just installed JD ultimate to check it out (I'm on stock jw5 2.3.6)

if you try to enable network toggle it says it is available only on JD beta.
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
alright guys, ive been flashing roms since forever the second i got my one x, however their are 2 amazing kernels that i cant choose in between.

Francos r6 and faux123 kernel. both kernels are with no doubt the best out there at the moment.

i am not getting average battery life on francos and faux's seem very stable with UV control. so anyone used both and would like to offer any advice? im really stuck here
[HTC One X] -juanito-:
i was using Franco r5 thrn i changed to Faux

Faux is better
[HTC One X] Evil-Dragon:
I've been using Faux's kernels since Sensation, i've tried many over the years but he always hits the nail on the head everytime. Was glad when he started dev'ing on the One X.

Good power consumption, battery life and governors not to mention some of the nice tech he's brought us like ZRam for example. By the way he still doesn't have the phone yet so if you feel generous then go donate to him so we can get even better kernels!
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
i just flashed his kernel, hoping for the best.

and 2 beers for him :)
[HTC One X] schidddy:
faux of course!!
[HTC One X] rfgamaral:
The thing that "bothers" me is, if these 2 kernels are so great (people here seem to be fond of faux's but I've heard great things about franco's), why don't these 2 devs join forces to develop the ultimate kernel?
[HTC One X] stezo2k:
I couldn't agree more, this would be perfect
[HTC One X] kozmikkick:
Because every kernel dev has their own vision on how they want it.

When I'm not using one I compile I prefer showp1984 bricked kernel.
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
I tried all kernels and Faux's has the most battery life and is the coolest one.

How far were you able to undervolt? I can go -150mV without freezes, but it freezes on -175mV (I just lowered them all). So I'm running with -125mV to be safe and it looks like most of the overheating is gone now :-)
[HTC One X] kctan75:
i personally think franco kernel is good.
[HTC One X] treebill:
Tried all these kernels always go back to stock.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
I've flashed both before, faux wins. Do I like the layout of his thread and announcing new versions? No, haha. He makes up for it though with his awesome kernel releases.
[HTC One X] Rageypeep:
Franco for me! Esp r7. HTC scorce finally fixed! Lol
[HTC One X] rfgamaral:
No one is preventing them from having a side project... Where they could put changes they don't agree with each other.

I just think it's a waste of potential and we'll never have the best kernel/software/whatever, until the best devs on their particular fields join forces. There will always be so much to choose from... Yes, choice is good, but sometimes, there's just too much choice...
[HTC One X] Bigmille:
I just under-volted 100mV above 1Ghz and -75mV below, which I think it is quite safe.

The only way to properly under-volt is to lock the CPU to a specific frequency, take away 25mV and stress test with benchmark and games. Keep on doing this until we found the minimum voltage the phone lock up, than we can increase the voltage up 25mV and this will be the lowest stable voltage for that frequency.

However, since currently there is not a reliable way to control max and min frequencies with Tegra 3, it is difficult to do the above.

Anyway, -150mV is very good result, I don't think the CPU can take more than that especially on the higher frequencies.
[HTC One X] maseo:
You can néver harm a CPU(chip) when undervolting it. You'll only end up making it unstable when it doesn't get enough power to do it's job. :)
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
I tried faux kernel and uv quite much but still overheating exists.. and battery on franco isnt the best for sure.

I like the idea of the two developers working together..
[HTC One X] Azurael:
A lack of compiler warnings doesn't make the compiled code any better though.

I prefer Faux's b3. Nothing has come close in battery life yet.
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
Yup, but franco did include many tegra kernel updates, which somehow result on better performance. I noticed great battery on faux kernel
[HTC One X] Dusan91:
im running francos r6 kernel and cant complain about battery/performance.

Hello

Hello

I have a big problem. Rum developed by Virtuous ([ROM] [May 23] Virtuous Saga v.1.0.0 [3.04.401.1] [Sense 6.3 Android 4.0.4]) installed. Then the phone's original rum that I tried to install Backup. previously installed on my backup installed but did not work. Kernel 3 rom in the phone trying to fanning the flames. but the old roms does not work. What should I do to install the original rom?
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Are you HTCDev Unlocked? If yes, then you need to flash boot.img manually from fastboot.

As for the rum developed by virtuous, I don't think they've managed to cook up Sense 6.3 yet. :p
[HTC Desire S] FaiTong:
Security-off is need.

Clockwork mod recovery is need.

Double wipe (data & cache) before restore is need.
[HTC Desire S] lazkopat0067:
Yes I unlocked HTCDev. I flash boot.img manually from fastboot.

I did this procedure many times with success. I installed and tried almost all of roms (İCS + Sense 4). I tried roms (İCS + Sense 4). After that I've restored the original backup and it worked. I install the latest rom (Virtuous Saga v.1.0.0 [3.04.401.1][Sense 3.6 Android 4.0.4]) and it worked. Rom did not work when I install the rom (Orjinal Backup rom) again. When I shall see the HTC logo on the phone. After waiting out a little off and I face Clockworkmod program.
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
When you restore backup, you still need to flash kernel from the backup manually. Restoring backup doesn't help.

If you restored backup and it worked - it worked because the backup could work with a different kernel.

And stock backup can't run with ICS kernel.
[HTC Desire S] lazkopat0067:
Which kernel should I set up for android version 2.3.5? With the kernel that I do not Clockworkmod backup. What i do?

[HTC EVO 3D] strykerider:
Bump...

Please help..
[HTC EVO 3D] HTC Reseller:
The graphics and the icons are very easy. Just download the apk you want to change, place in your desktop, rename to xxxxx.zip, open it, extract res folder, now close zip and open res folder, drawable hdpi and drawable land hdpi usually contains all/most graphics you can theme. So, extract them, edit them, and push it again to the zip file, nename to xxxx.apk and flash to your phone if it is a system app. If it is not a system app you need to download APK Manager to sign apk and install on your phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keiya345:
first i'm sorry for my english, it's only poor:(

um.. My RAZR MAXX buy from H.K.

It's GSM version

And the system version is 65.1.40.XT910.AsiaRetail.en.03, The build number is 6.5.1-167-SPD-IRD-40

Should i wait the ota or flash it to ICS?:confused:

Please help~
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Nikorasu:
If Motorola weren't lying, ICS should be out in a month or less.

GSM phones can flash GSM roms, check the development section.

However, if you flash to ICS betas/leaks, you might not be able to go back to GB.

My advice: wait.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keiya345:
Thanks for your reply!

If Motorola really weren't lying, I'll wait the OTA.

Whatever, thanks bro!:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] BombayBoy:
Hi,

i am a newbie here. with help of the forum, i was able to root my xperia neo V running stock ICS. now that i want to try custom ROM - Polish Blood...

the topic for the same only gives an overview...

can somebody please guide me about going further with this...

i have downloaded the required files from the links on the topic

my neo V is rooted with a locked boot loader and have installed a few apps recommended (Titanium Backup, ROM Toolbox & ROM Manager)

do i need to install a kernel (if yes, which) or can i just install the ROM?

any help is appreciated :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aarush:
First you gotta unlock your bootloader to go further.

all that you can do now is to reflash your phone with a generic firmware using flashtool. Such threads are available in xda forum. look for it follow it. hope it works.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] BombayBoy:
:p it's sometime now.

I flashed a few. Using AOKP now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Seems a long time before...

Now I seem to be in the same place......
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] BombayBoy:
I remember how I thought my phone was bricked :p

You can do it easily now. Just take someone's help for test point (if you choose) or official is easy.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Hehe

Yea a year after even I would feel childish in asking such questions

Btw yea things have become much more easy and reliable...

And I'm considering official as I am not finding any guy who can do the unofficial unlock for me...

Wish I could have met you or communicated with you through some other medium like chats.... So that I don't brick by doin unlock by unofficial method... I know it sounds noobish but can't really help it.... As this being my 1st droid... Don't wanna ruin it and then spend money.... :p

Greetings friends,

[Q] Is it possible to have my RSS feed or my calender, say upcoming events, displayed on the lock-screen?

You don't have to read below this line. Appreciate your help, thanks.

Now before you judge this redundant, I would like to inform you that I've already done some research and already tried a couple of options, namely an app called "lock-screen calender" and a number of lock-screen replacement apps. I've encountered some difficulties on a number of them and maybe even discovered a flaw or two in some apps. For instance, I've found that on my device (GSMRAZR:2.3.6 stock rooted) every time I hit the home button soft key while on Go launcher's lock-screen, it takes me straight away to my home-screen, bypassing the pin security option of the Go launcher lock-screen itself!!

I intend to write to the developers of that app about it after I receive confirmation from other GSM RAZR users, you know just to be sure it's not just me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Giblet535:
Widget Locker on Play Store.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bogaggas:
thank you but

Thank you for suggesting widget locker. I've seen this app but have been reluctant to try it since I've heard complaints of battery drain among other things. I will give it a try, eventually, but would like to know your experience with this app and if there is any other options. Say a mod to the original RAZR lock screen, which I am really keen on.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Giblet535:
Battery drain *is* a problem. 12-15% in my case.

You can also try Go Locker and create your own theme.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
i suspect the power/lock button is FUBAR, but there are some other symptoms that do not resemble just a bad power/lock button. here are the symptoms that indicate it is the power/lock button:

1. when the phone is off, almost impossible to turn on. sometimes have to press and hold power button 10-12 times before it will shut on

2. when the phone is on and i press the lock button to lock the phone, most of the time it thinks i held the button and says "slide down to power off" although sometimes it doesn't respond at all. it almost NEVER locks when i press it (like it should be doing)

3. when the phone is on and i press the lock button to unlock the phone, most of the time it shuts off completely and i go back to step 1

symptom that indicates another problem not related to power/lock button:

1. if the phone is off and i press the power button, when the phone responds it will sometimes say "samsung" like it is turning on, and then nothing else will happen. i won't get the ATT screen and it won't boot up. this some times happens multiple times before the phone finally boots

currently i've been letting the phone time out automatically instead of the lock button, and using the camera button to unlock it. i've also been trying to not let it turn off at all, because getting it back on is really tough.

is there anyway i can disable the lock/power button...and/or is there an alternative way to lock and turn on your phone that doesn't require the use of that button? even if i tell myself not to use it, there are still times in your pocket where the darn thing gets pressed. for me that could mean it kills my phone and doesn't restart for the rest of the day, which i'm sure you can imagine is not ideal.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
You seem to have a (hardware) problem with the power button (obviously).

There are a couple of ways to turn on the phone/display without the power button:

- camera/back

- connect power charger

- usb connect

Last 2 are not practical and first you already do. You should try and see how much would it cost to replace the power button, if you're out of warranty. Should be cheap, and beats workarounds.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
is there any way to lock it rather than letting it just time out? what about turning it on?

do you feel pretty confident that the seemingly unrelated symptom where the "samsung" screen comes up and then shuts off while trying to turn the phone on STILL indicates the button is broken? just worried this problem extends further than just the button.

thanks for your help.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
There's no other way to turn it on (except plugging it to charge) and you found the one workaround, with the camera.

I am *very* sure that the power button is the culprit in your case, most likely the spring that pops back the button is either broken or out of place.

If you keep the power button pressed, in 2 seconds you'll see the slide message, but if you keep it pressed, then it just turns off after 2 more seconds. So, yes, it's the power button and nothing else, in your case.

Fix that and you should be back to normal.

And you're not the only one with this problem. Recently, I've tried to help someone else here, with the same problem, as you can see here.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
thanks. i called around and a guy here in town said it will take him 30 minutes for $30 to fix it. i'm taking it to him at lunch, so hopefully i'll come back with a fully functional phone--he also was pretty certain it was the power button, and had seen this before. thanks for your help.
[Focus General] tuffluck:
well it wasn't the power button. apparently there is a battery connected to the power button that is dying. but you can't even order a new battery, so pretty much once it's dead, it's dead for good and you have to do the camera button workaround like i was doing.

though he did solder the battery to the board a little more (that's another problem, from the factory it is soldered to the main board so even if you could replace it, you'd likely damage the board), and it seemed to fix the problem. he claimed it would only be temporary and within a few weeks the problem will likely come back.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
That is weird indeed. I don't think I ever heard of another type of battery being used in phones, tied to buttons. Unless it's a capacitor but anyways...

Thanks for sharing the info with us!
[Focus General] cysser0:
I know this is thread is almost a year old, but unfortunately, it seems my Samsung Focus (v1.3) also has the exact same issue.

The worst bit is that every other aspect of this once glorious phone still works and I was very happy using it, not really feeling the need to upgrade.

I was using a custom ROM which I flashed back to AT&T original 7004 but that did not work. It doesn't seem to be a software issue at all.

The symptoms are the same - tapping the power button to lock the phone gives you the option to slide to power-off and after a second it will do that anyway (without any interaction). When you try to boot, it won't progress past the SAMSUNG screen and in the rare chance it does boot, it will work for an hour or two before dying again. Connecting power helps a little (as you can't turn off the phone with mains power connected), but only just. I have tried using the original battery which I initially suspected was causing issues but even a generic battery has the same issues. I'm tempted to spend $20 on a genuine battery but I don't think it will really help given the generic battery did work properly when the phone was itself.

I'm now faced with upgrading to the Lumia 920 but with new models around the corner I think I'm going for the budget Lumia 520 which has similar specs to the Focus (except LED flash) and will hold out for the new flagship model, or buy the 920 when it falls a bit more.
