[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbosmithcom:
Play.com delivering S3 via DPD

I got an email from saying S3 would be delivered on the 6th and a tracking link for DPD site. They also said in the email that I would also be able to see the delivery hour on the tracking site.

There was no tracking events this morning on the site and no 'Delivery Hour'

I rang play.com and they said they don't know why I was told it would be delivered today because of the 'bank holiday'.

They now say it will be delivered tomorrow, so I will have to arrange for someone to be in again tomorrow, and we all know how irritating that is.

I expressed my irritation to the play.com operative and told them to raise it with team leader.

S3 originally ordered 4th May and subsequently changed from Blue to White when delays were apparent.

Have you tried an ad detection app like add on detector. Maybe its an advert of some kind. Unless your name is neil and its somehow showing a text or email message an ad seems most likely suspect.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gorgeousyousuf:
Hi there;

I have recently owned a t989 Galaxy s2. Everything is OK except one thing that is data network. In my country(Turkey), there is no 4g network infrastructure yet so 3g is used currently. When I get the edge signal(it is on the status bar) it works as intended but when it turns to 4g signal (4g sign on the status bar), I am having trouble trying to connect to web. In the specs, it says it supports e/3g/4g but I have never encountered a 3g signal(3g sign on the status bar).

Is it obviously a radio related issue or something bad lying behind the ROM?

Note : Curently sitting near the PC and it is 4g that I see on the status bar and I am unable to establish a connection :S

Currently used Rom/Radio : Bullet v6 Android 4.0.4 / default radio comes with it(tried others as well)

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Our phone does not have true 4g capabilities. it does have 3.5g. So if you say your area has 3g... then technically it should be able to use "4g".

I have yet to encounter the 3g signal symbol on my phone so i can't help you there... didn't even know we had that symbol lol.

Having "4g" symbol does not necessarily means you have fast data speed. It really depends on your area. My phone would say 4g but in reality.. it has no data or very slow data transfer speed. so don't trust that symbol. You should also check if your AREA supports the 3g network yet.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heartbyte101:
Can anyone please tell me if the phone HTC Explorer(HTC Explorer Product Overview - HTC Smartphones) allows the use of the android.net.sip API. What I mean is, will writing an application using that API work out of the box on that phone, without having to root the phone or modify android OS system files?

If anyone has this phone and would be kind enough to try a demo application like SipDemo or better yet try calling the static methods isApiSupported and isVoipSupported of the SipManager class to see if the API can be accessed, I would appreciate it very much.

To spare you some time, this is an activity that logs if the API is accessible or not:

package voip.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.net.sip.SipManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class SipTestActivity extends Activity {

private static final String TAG = "voip_test";

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

if (SipManager.isApiSupported(this) && SipManager.isVoipSupported(this)) {
Log.d(TAG, "supported");
Toast.makeText(this, "supported", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Log.d(TAG, "not supported");
Toast.makeText(this, "not supported", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}

I have also attached a zip archive containing a self-signed application that uses the previous activity code and when run, logs and toasts the status of the API.

Any help with this, would be much appreciated! Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heartbyte101:
Thankyou very much for you answer, ri123, but I am looking to see if the API is available on non-rooted phones.

PS: when starting the application I attached, there should be a small toast message for a couple of seconds, near the bottom of the screen displaying either "supported" or "not supported", it is curious that you did not see it...I don't see anything wrong with the code, and it works on the emulator just fine.

But thanks anyway! Still searching for an answer to this question though...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heartbyte101:
Could you please tell me if, when you ran the SipTest app, it showed you a small Toast message saying "supported" or "not supported" in the lower half of the activity screen, and if so, what the message said?

I am asking you this question, because just acquyring root account on the phone, whithout modyfing files in /system/etc/permissions does not affect the SIP api in any way. So if you did not modify/add android.net.sip permission files in /system/etc/permissions after rooting, and now SipTest returns the "supported" message on the screen, then it should have also been accessible before rooting it.

I hope I phrased my question in an undertandable way. Please help me with answering this question. Thanks in advance, heartbyte101

Were supposed to be getting it very soon. I mean Samsung is pushing Sprint to finish testing the last builds they sent them. They are giving them an ultimatum saying they will release the source anyways if they did not OTA within like a week. As far as Samsung is concerned they are done. There probably will need to be a bug fix ota in the future but with source the community will have your back on that until that happens as theyre focus is heading elsewhere.

But heck many of us have been on ICS since February. Between some of the late leaks and CyanogenMod9 is pretty good. AOKP is getting there as well and MIUI just grabbed WiMax capability.

[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
Gotcha, sorry :) I'm not sure that's possible with your HBOOT version at the moment.

It's not a certainty that you'll lose your warranty using HTCDev. Although there's a good chance that you may, it would depend on what you've done to the phone, and what problem pops up. Basically, if you run a custom ROM and kernel with an unlocked bootloader, and send your phone in for a 'software issue' - you'll be SOL. If it's hardware, however, I know of people who've had no issues.

That said, you pretty much write-off your 'software' warranty as soon as you hit XDA anyway :p lol

Good luck mate, sorry I couldn't be more help!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Master Ramy:
credits to Coycane, he showed it to me, I'm just giving you the guide.

I use it on my Xoom with great results, so I can follow the car the whole way without needing internet as long as I open maps when on internet.

The way it works is simple; a Garmin GPS unit doesn't require internet to get you places, so why would your phones GPS? In reality, it doesnt.; the GPS hip can b programmed to communicate independently with the satellite, allowing you to be more Mobil without needing Internet!

But maps needs internet to start, so what I do is open maps, get my directions so they're on map, then I can turn off internet and the GPS lock will stay and follow me.

Its very simple; starts out the same way you'd do a prl hack;

1. Get your MSL number. Do this by getting an app from the market called terminal emulator. type in: su (hit enter) getprop ril.MSL (caps sensitive, then hit enter) your MSL will be there. It will be a 6 digit code. Write this down for later!

2. Install drivers for your device on your computer. Look up a Youtube tutorial on how to do this. It was the hardest part for me.

3. Download QPST. Link is below. On your computer, extract the QPST file, open it up, and double click on setup. Go through the installation process.

If you want to make a nandroid, tho it probably won't backup this section and I doubt ull have issues anyway, now would be the time to back up.

4. Go back to the phone and open up the dialer. Enter this: *#*#8778#*#*

5. On the menu that pops up there will be a section labeled "USB". Change it from PDA to "Modem"

6. Back to the computer. Hit the start menu and open up device manager. Double click on "ports" and you should see your device there. at the end it will look like this: (COM#). Write down the number at the end of the COM.

7. Hit the start and search for QPST and open it.

8. Now go to "start clients" and hit "SERVICE PROGRAMMING". It will ask what port you will be modifying, just click your device and hit ok.

9. there will be these tabs with CDMA, CDMA-2, ESN, etc. Click on the one that said "GPS or GpsOne". On the left check all boxes, usually phone has only 1 checked. REMEMBER what ur phone originally had checked in case you need to go back.

10. Finally, hit "write to phone". The phone should reboot, and you're done!

11. Once it boots up, go back to the dialer and enter the *#*#8778#*#* code again. Change it back from modem to PDA and you are done!

QPST: http://www.x-drivers.com/catalog/flash/mobile_phones/companies/qualcomm/models/qpst/12051.html

Make sense? And no, this hack is not dependent on any particular phone or tablet, should work on all androids; worked on my Xoom perfectly. Try it and best of luck!

Let me know if u have any questions or need any help. I've found it extremely useful on my wifi only Xoom because I can always know where I am without having to tether from phone first :-)

Enjoy,

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] srthimsen:
Great write up, thank you very much! Looking forward to trying this out on a 1800 mile road trip soon - don't have to drain battery the entire time just to see how much farther to the next turn :)

A few suggestions that might help make the guide clearer:

2. If reinstalling drivers on your computer, be sure to remove the old ones! (while I could ADB into my device with no issue, when I switched over to modem from PDA, the computer didn't recognize the device, requiring me to reinstall drivers - probably conflicts from multiple android device drivers being installed)

7a. I had to add a new port in the QPST configuration interface before it saw my phone (ports, "add new port", "COM14" for port, "android" for label).

9. I had to click, "Read from phone", while in the GPSone tab, before it allowed me to modify any settings.

Again, these are all relatively obvious things, but extra clarity helps those of us who are a little slower :)

Thanks again - and GPS locked on within about 20 seconds. It does seem to be a little slower than normal, but that could make sense with all the extra options we're requiring of it.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] samoukos:
That is a cool trick. However, you could do something a lot easier and not hacking anything.

Download Google Maps, enable the Lab "Pre-Cache Map". Pre-Cache the part of the map that you will be traveling and then you are good to go.

The Wifi receiver works as the GPS and for both my galaxy nexus 4g and asus tf300 has worked perfectly. Turn2turn navigation is amazing.

I am not sure if anyone else has tried this but for me its been a success.

However, I still have to admit your trick is amazing. I will try it when the Pre-cache method fails me.
