[HTC One S] Richy101:
If you live out in the sticks I'd be careful. Mine seems to perform very well in the city but very variable out in the country even where I know I have a good signal. I'm on Three.

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

Funny how they never seem to know about these issues? I exchanged my One S for another which was just the same. I then contacted HTC and they wanted to take the phone in for investigation and repair. I duly sent it in and they turned it around within the day and sent it. All they did was load the latest software version. I did have a go at them about it as a CS guy rang up to ask me how my 'experience' had been with the repair service. May as well have spoken to the dog as that fella. All he wanted was a number from 1 to 5 for his few questions he had to ask me.

Anyway, seems to be plenty on the forums with the reception issue. It's a strange one. I have a good signal where I live and work and yet signal reception on the One S is very variable to say the least. Most days 25% of the day is spent without a signal according to the cell stats. When I go to nearest city I have no issues at all. I have a Motorola I can stick the sim out of the One S in and it has a solid 4 to 5 bars (-75dBm) and has no issues with signal what so ever. I'll hang on a little longer to the One S and see if an update does anything if one comes along but other than I'll have to sell it and look at something else.
[HTC One S] p4nts:
Hi Richy101,

Thanks very much for this, yes HTC are asking for the phone.

Mentioning Software Upgrades (It has the latest version AFAIK.)

I think I will pass on their offer and wait 2-3 weeks to see if

there is an actual resolution to this otherwise Talk Mobile

will be replacing this phone with an altogether different one :(
[HTC One S] orenfl:
Unfortunately, this is BS (sorry for my language)!

I've got the phone for more than 9 weeks now and since a week after I got it I was corresponding with them through mails/web-forms and any other method as well as long distance calls about this.

I've (and I'm aware of others as well) were submitting support tickets for escalation on that specifically.

I did it both before and after 1.78 EU.
[HTC One S] p4nts:
Indeed but hopefully the more people who raise it the better :confused:
[HTC One S] orenfl:
For sure.

The blessing I wrote were meant to HTC representative reply, not to your intention!
[HTC One S] Richy101:
Well I'd nearly bet my savings you'd send it in and they do nothing. What annoyed me was their packaging instructions which I took care to do and they simply chucked it loose in a big box and shipped it back. It rattled it's way back and came back with a chipped edge.

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

I suspect they're not going to admit to it but are well aware of it? Whether or if they do anything about it remains to be seen but I for sure will vote with my feet and look elsewhere for a phone. Surely not rocket science as most other manufacturers can manage to make a phone that can hold onto a half decent signal?
[HTC One S] p4nts:
I happened to catch a WatchDog (UK Consumer Affairs Show) pulling up HTC for exactly this sort of behaviour, last year, so I was already wary. Of course they said it had all been resolved one bad apple etc etc.
[HTC One S] jimnastics:
Has anyone got any news to report on this? A guy in another forum sent his phone to HTC, who said it requires a replacement aerial. Not the best news in the world, as this suggests it is a hardware problem that won't be fixed OTA.
[HTC One S] Gavin01:
Im on tmobile/orange and find signal coverage excellent, apart from in places it was rubbish before. Allthough even in the low signal places it performs admirably hangingonto a 1 bar signal whilst i walk through the house.

Would this be a user servicable part for those that are rooted and flashed.??

Me to.

Be interesting to see if anyone with a customised firmware has reception problems
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yohng:
HI

I was re-conditioning my SGS2 for my wife.

Flash Thai ROM + clear + install sofwares ....

Everything was nearly perfect for her. Then (I don't know why and when), impossible to charge the batterie (5 differents power supply). I've tried to connect computer an no data connexion (2 differents cables).

The Jig works but no connection to PC for ODIN.

Master reset *2767*3855# with no effect.

Using Mobile ODIN, I've tried to re-install the ROM I9100OLBLP9. I've tried to install a CF kernel (CF-Root-SGS2_DX_SIN_LP9-v5.4-CWM5) without effect.

Before I go to see Samy, anybody have an idea ?

Hi there guys want to flash this ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1625816

However im very much a newbie at this (This will be my first flash) and the instruction posted in that thread make no sense to me..

Could someone please give a more thorough guide?

PS: I am rooted.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
Put the downloaded rom to your SD Card of your HTC One X

Boot to hboot (bootloader that is) - fastboot, then run this: Boot.img flasher for dummies

Boot to recovery after installing the kernel

Do a full wipe if you are coming from another rom

Install rom and follow Aroma instructions

pretty simple really whats confusing about there guide mate?
[HTC One X] JDBurnie:
Thanks for the help bud! But whats the kernel? And does stock sense that i opened the phone with count as another ROM, and whats aroma? And how do you do a full wipe?

Much Thanks :)
[HTC One X] Goku80:
hehe so many questions..i see if i can help

kernel is the boot.img that is in short what makes the phone tick aka performance

Explanation:

What Is A Kernel?

The central component of most operating systems. Its responsibilities include managing the system’s resources (the communication between hardware and software components) and can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for resources (especially memory, processors, and I/O devices)

stock sense is just framework and launcher as well. what you are using now is your stock rom. aroma is just an installer program that helps you remove or install mods that rom developers have added to it..makes things easier and simpler for us the users. go here for better explanation

full wipe again it will give you the option in aroma to do that...make sure you backup the rom first before you flash the custom rom

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] MinnesotaVikings1961:
As far as I know, No. The S-Memo needs Samsung Firmware. So if you want S-Memo you need to run a ROM with TouchWiz.

Whats the difference between the normal n the lite version?.. thanks for the upload
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] PROTOCHIP:
Dear slitex,

Thanks for sharing... As you suggested, installed both apk as regular in paranoid rom v0.2... Smemo runs when i tap but gives fc when i try to choose any option to use it... i guess it is because of lack of some keys in cm9 framework... So, at least it can be installed in cm9 but features not working....

Kind regards...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] aadil7:
Hi i had installed the smemo on its ownand when i ran it.. it opened but i was unable to do anything as it stopped unexpectedly.. i then uninstalled it and installed the lite version which showed no app so i installed the normal one again so i had both installed now and i had the same issue still!.. i am running paranoid android on thor kernel.. if that helps

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rebista:
There is an alternative memo app, why don't you take this on.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5uZ2Fyc2lkZS5tZW1vIl0.

The dev is here on this forum.

LectureNote is a very versatile app for notetaking but you need to perform an extra step to open a notebook before you are able to write

while SMemo lite lets you write immediately after being launched.

For the double tap: there are gesture launchers

or apps like

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...iY29tLnBhY29zYWwudGFza2NoYW5nZXJ0aXRhbml1bSJd

or

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5wYWNvc2FsLmVhc3l0YXNrIl0.

or swipepad

A gesture launcher maybe will not do the double tap, but another gesture like a stroke or a shape could be used to launch a memo app. I have read about wave launcher which seems to do a decent job

What I wonder about is using the pen for drawing in CM9 in general.

When I tried it a few weeks ago writing with the pen was ok in portrait but of no use in landscape because the actual point on the screen

was too offset from the physical pen point, making writing an obnoxious affair.

Is this resolved by now? Cuz I would love to switch back from Stock ICS to CM9! But without pen CM9 is of no use for me.

Oh, yes, palm rejection is/was an absolute pain too in CM9.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] sanghaviraj:
The memo app you suggested is the closest to s memo, but I'm terms of stability it lacks, text pasting of more than 4 lines, three cropping of images is also crap, and it lacks screenshot editing like s memo does

HOW TO (find new stuff)

So how do you find new codes?

Well Google it! Then consider getting the following tools:

Get jd-gui (Often crashes)

Get jad (doesn't crash, but is cmdline based)

Get sgs2toext4 (and here)

Get Disk Internals Linux Reader

Get a disk image with deodexed Apps (see below)

Then what to do?

The brief version. (For full version, see "References" in OP above.)

Download all the tools shown above.

Download the deodexed firmware images (see post#3)

(If in Windows) Double click the sgs2toext4.

Drag and drop the system.img file to the sgs2toext4 "drop window".

You will now have a system.img.ext4 file, open this file with the LinuxReader tool.

Save entire filesystem (from 5) in a new folder. Close.

Go to the folder containing the *.apk(s) of interest.

Make sure dex2jar.bat (win) is in your path and run it on your interesting.apk like this, for example:

./path/to/dex2jar.bat Samsungservice.apk

This produces a new file: Samsungservice_dex2jar.jar

Extract (7zip) this file in a new folder.

Go to that folder in command line and enter the appropriate "jad" commands. For example, to decompile all class files globbed by Phone*.class and put the decompiled sources in the "src" sub-directory, do:

jad -o -r -sjava -dsrc Phone*.class

Go to the source directory (../src) you just created.

Enjoy your *.java files!

Alternatively you can deodex on your own...but don't ask me how to do it.

Very good info there .. how about programming the sim with that IMSI will it have any effect.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] E:V:A:
It certainly will, but you will have to find a SIM that is programmable!

You can buy programmable SIM cards from the Sysmocom website, but you need the tools to do so. Sysmocom is ran by some of the GSM security researchers and open source baseband developers...

Here is tutorial on how to clone a SIM card. However, this may be highly illegal in some countries, even for your own! Check your local laws.

(In addition it is a border-line topic on what we are allowed to post here on XDA.)

But Apple proposed, (and here) already some years ago, to have programmable SIM cards built into their devices. This would make perfect sense, since the whole idea about using SIM cards have been neglected and forgotten in the first place. (The original idea, was that it should be extremely easy to switch SIM cards, so that you could easily just borrow someone else's phone, put you card in and make a phone call. Even on designated SIM-holder enabled pay-phones! This has become forgotten and circumvented and damn hard to do with embedded sim cards deep inside your phone.) In addition most cellular providers have lobbied against it...
[Galaxy S III General] tids2k:
Definately would look at it. Here is the link for the time being ...

http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=KC5361

I remember when Dejan found the binary hack way back in 2006 for BB5 Nokia phones, he posted files on his website on how to clone a simcard. But those times only 16bit chips were used.

Here is the scheme tics for the reader if any one interested.

Hi all,

a couple of month ago I build an app with shortcuts for the "secret" dialer codes within the galaxy S2, because I could not remember them all ...This app is special tailored for the galaxy S2, but should work on all SAMSUNG devices with TOUCHWIZ ... Not all codes will work on all devices, but a lot these codes work on other samsung touchwiz devices.

I tested the App with my GS3 and a lot of these codes still working ....

You could also add your own codes and ussd codes to an app internal database ... and some users even uses this database as hidden phone book :D

Check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.widgapp.HiddenFeaturesFREE

(Important: These codes will NOT work on most custom roms, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, HTC, Sony, Motorolla etc. ...I´m a little bit annoyed by comments like: Not working on my HTC, Sony, Nexus S, Samsung XYZ with custom rom zyx ...:mad:. ...without Touchwiz, there is no possibility to use touchwiz firmware functions!)
