[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soyusa:
Hi all,

I hope I am in the right place to ask help from expert over here who familiar with Waze + ICS Custom ROM 4.0.3 .

What happened is whenever I'm on phone conversation with Waze running at the same time, this application will prompt a red message "searching network" on top of the screen and the phone signal (either H+, H or E) will be disappear too.

This Waze will appear offline until I ended the phone call, then the phone signal (either H+, H or E) will be appear again and the Waze will back online

My current system listed below:

Model: GT-i9100 on Android 4.0.3 ICS

ROM: FoxHound Sniper Wolf (ICS)

Kernel: Siyah v3.2.8.2

Modem: NELP2

I'm not sure is it something to do with the ROM, Kernel or the Modem that might causing this problem. I did not have this problem before I move from Gingerbread (Cognition_777_r2). Appreciate any help for solve my problem.

Thank you...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mone181:
point 1: wrong section :)

point 2: everytime you make (or receive) a call you will lost your data connection until the ends of the call..is not a problem with Waze!

I think because the data connection is a kind of call...and the radio who makes it is the same who make voice call...but this may be is only my theory :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soyusa:
Thanks for address this and I already asked Mod help me to move to Q&A.

For point 2, yes I'm agree that this is nothing wrong with Waze.

I'm doubt that this could be the Modem causing this issue and I need suggestion on how to get this fix.

I already flashed with different modem but problem still persist.

I also tried with few version of Siyah Kernel and flash the same ROM for three times, still no luck.

The moment I am on call, the phone signal (either H+, H or E) will disappear and Waze appear offline again... :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mone181:
No modem issue.. It's normal... Call OR data connection... Not both... :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
That's not true. I'm currently posting this message from my phone at the same time I have an active call going, listening to voice mail.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mone181:
Since I bought my phone I can not have data connection during voice call...

My friends too.. Are you doing these with wi-fi?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soyusa:
I'm doubt it... the reason is I used to be able to make a call (with BT headset) and check the traffic report via waze while I was on the road. Everything is running smoothly. Since I suspected it could be ROM problem, I just flashed the to previous ROM Foxhound Greyfox V2, still the same problem.

Thanks for the response... May I know which ROM, Modem and Kernal that you are using? Perhaps I can give a try on it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Nope. I turned off wifi.

Maybe it's a restriction with your network carrier. Some carriers aren't capable of simultaneous data and voice. Check with your carrier.

I'm still on GB. Stock XXKI3, NEAK kernel 1.4.2, modem XXKI4 (but modem XXKI3 worked fine for me too)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soyusa:
I think I saw a possible solution, need to change the setting in the Network Mode from Automatic to WCDMA only.

Let me give a try first later when I drive home, then see will the data connection lost during phone call.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soyusa:
Confirmed this method work!

Go to setting and look for "Network Mode", change it from Automatic to WCDMA only. It's simple! :)

Now I can talk over the phone and the data network remain connected, Waze is working fine! :)

Hi,

I searched to find a way to connect my Note to my laptop's internet, but couldn't find a way.

I have no wifi router and therefor I wonder if there is a way to surf internet in my Note by using laptop's internet connection.

Thanks for any suggestions
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bloodyhippo:
Connectify. Or reverse tethering (search for it in Android apps section).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny1991:
Thank you

After trying so hard to get the first option to work on my PC i had to give up.

Tried second one and downloaded the trial from google play and I am now amaized how fast and good this is working. Now I have full internet access on my Note. As fast as my PC's. But you have to use the cable thou.

:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bloodyhippo:
There's a new app called Opengarden. I haven't tried it, but it looks promising. It uses bluetooth, I think.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny1991:
Not same

Opengarden is not supporting reverse tethering it is tethering. It means you can use Opengarden to use your mobile's internet on your pc, not your pc's internet on your mobile like reverse tethering. Two diffrent apps.

Not supported

I am using a cable. It is student biulding and I connect the cable to my PC and the internet is there.

The problem is that the galaxy Note does NOT support AD Hock as I tried much and changed some system setings from /system/bin. If there was a solution for NOTE to support Ad Hock it would be amaizing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kujila:
I have been reading that Sprint disabled tethering, but it seems to work ok on mine. I don't have the right drivers for USB to work but it enabled. Wireless seems to make a hotspot ok.

Does this new SERO Premium plan include phone tethering or something? My EVO Shift blocked official tethering, but the plan was an "Everything Plus" plan
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] butterbuns:
when did sprint disable teethering?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Evo_Shift:
Keep using it. I have seen a couple people mention it works awhile then you start getting an error. I think Sprint is giving you a little taste of the teet before cutting you off.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] hayabusa129:
Hi guys,

I am not certainly an expert in this field but it seems like because we don't have the driver for the graphical card, the phone does not have video camera function when ICS is installed.

My question is I've realized that from watching YouTube and other streaming videos, the quality of video is really bad. Is that have anything with video support?

I'm pretty sure with the stock the quality of the video was just fine.

Thanks in advance for your comments!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ehafling:
The biggest issue currently is the lack of hardware video acceleration which can easily be solved my using MXplayer and having the video decoded through the software instead.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Anthony1596:
Camcorder

Camcorder force closes. Driver issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dorkknight:
I'm not sure if it really matters, but what ROM are you using? I've used several ICS ROMs and never really noticed any issues with video quality on Youtube or other sites. It does seem to be slow to load at times, which may be because of the video driver issue. But quality-wise, it looks fine to me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hayabusa129:
I must say the picture looks saturated I mean dither gradation of the colors seems not be read correctly? It definitely has nothing to do with how much time it'd take to load.the bids its the picture.that degrades its quality..

BTW I was using eagleblood latest
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
These are what I notice to be funky and a bother, the reasons for why they don't work might not be correct but here is what I notice...

No proper video drivers = camera is funky sometimes NO VIDEO unless you use video cam illusion only mediocre quality, some video playback to alot are not proper or functioning fully at the least. Takes longer to load things (I think, ill be surfing xda or Facebook and it loads like DSL used to load in sections, half the screen and other times by quarters, really weird.)

No REAL Hardware Acceleration, it is just a hack with missing libs or Hals or binaries a bunch of little things, this causes a mess of issues if I'm not mistaken which is a possibility (a likely one)

Other things I've noticed are that battery is usually terrible if you use the phone, not super fast at all again proper drivers are the cause of that one. Incoming calls are a pain on most roms. Wifi calling is a no go for a whole lot of people, including me. More things that are just annoyances but also make it not a daily driver for some including me, I've tested them all and always revert... just mainly the annoyances and the lack of wifi calling.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stormageddon:
I agree with all that is said above. I had all of these problems and I always had this funky problem in which when ever I was browsing the web it would randomly decide to start flickering the screen black on the page and then not letting me see anything until I started to actively scroll and then the problem would come back. This happened to me over and over until I reverted back to GB. That and the new baseband that is a much needed improvement and is only compatible with GB right now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] XTM16:
I don't know how unique my problem is, but I can't use my phone for development anymore for some reason or some of the advanced Bluetooth features. Pre-ICS, all the G2x drivers installed normally from Windows Update and I could do all the various Bluetooth things, such as Bluetooth file browsing. Post-ICS, my G2x shows up as an unknown device in Bluetooth, so no more Bluetooth file browsing. Also, when I connected my phone for the first time and turned on debugging, Windows couldn't install the drivers to make it work, adb doesn't recognize it, and eclipse won't push to it. Keep in mind, this was on a computer I connected to just fine a few hours ago.

Now, at this point I was a little pissed because I can't use my phone for development, so I try another laptop that my G2x had never connected to. Plug it in, nothing. Install LG drivers, nothing. So I think that ICS somehow messed up my ability to use debugging mode, because when I disable debugging mode I don't have any "Other Devices" in Device Manager.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] drewgalyen:
I've been running arcee's CM9-SK3 since he released it, the hardware acceleration is a nuisance, but my biggest complaint is the maps problem. When I'm using maps or navigating, the map will randomly blank out and maps will require a complete restart. It's quite annoying while navigating, and absolutely infuriating while searching the map for something. I can live with the battery (I have two), I can get over the lack of video (youtube HD works fine), but the maps thing is what drives me the most crazy, especially since I just moved across the country right after installing SK3.

I just did my second exchange - first two phones were barely getting me through half a day with nary 2 hours of screen time. Haven't turned this one on yet, just stuck it on the charger first thing I got home.

What did you do with your phone to get great battery life?

Factory reset first thing? What steps did you follow to do this?

Debloat first thing?

I plan on disabling haptic feedback, and auto brightness but not sure about the above options.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dharani1234:
1) Yes , try to do a factory reset immediately you get a phone. ( a lot of people reported that it works wonders )

2) How bad a data user are you ? If you do not use data very often, then disable data and enable it only when required. ( I use tasker , you can either use tasker or APNDroid )

3) Disable auto-sync in "Accounts and settings" under sync.

4) Use Wi-fi when you have an available wi-fi connection available and remember to turn off wi-fi once you are out of range.

5) Disable auto-brightness and set the brightness to 20-30% based on your needs.

6) If you are brave... unlock your bootloader and install CleanRom 2.4 by scrott from the Dev section. It's based off the 1.88 RUU and has a stellar battery life .

*) you can toggle most of the settings I have mentioned above by using the power control widget.

Will update as I remember other settings ...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] markandmyia:
If I have to disable what my phone supposed to do...whilr having good battery life anyway...then what's the point in buying this phone?

I haven't had to do anything. I charged it...signed in to what I wanted...and I get 12-15 hours of moderate use. I am not rooted...just completely stock. If battery life is what your after...root/unlock and install a rom that has this feature...but don't disable everything...that renders it-useless IMO.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phishie:
Does anyone know the steps for a factory reset?

I originally though that it was the "factory reset" buried in the settings but later read somewhere else (which I can't find now) that there is actually a hidden boot menu to do a "real" factory reset.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dharani1234:
settings -> storage -> factory reset ( the last option )
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phishie:
Thanks but I'm pretty sure I heard of a way to do it from the bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] phishie:
Alright found it.

Hold down power then the volume down button to boot into the bootloader. Then you can use the volume down button to get to "Factory Reset" and the power button to select it. Then the phone will factory reset and boot up!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rohan32:
1) Set up the "phone" APN on AT&T (google it)

2) Disable auto-brightness and set it to ~30%

3) Get an app like "extended controls" thats lets you have toggles in the notification bar and keep toggling mobile data/wifi (which ever one you use)

With that you should be getting around 3.5-4 hours of battery life.

I have and I'm in an HSPA+ area

I also get around 15hrs standby.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
Does the dual apn setup actually save battery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] z28james:
Simply disabling auto brightness (and setting it to about 25-30%) nets me a huge battery gain. I'm on CleanROM 2.4 and battery life is pretty good. I'm getting around 5.5 hours of screen on time. Seems pretty good if the norm is 3.5-4 hours.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] john_tillman:
Not for me. I live in an area with decent LTE signal. HSPA+ APN was using more battery as it would be without signals 20 - 30% of the time - don't know why? I switched back to pta apn. Battery life is a concern, only when using mobile data. I keep it off as long as I have wifi and switch it on when I don't have WiFi. I easily get 4-5 hour screen time and 16- 24 hour standby.

When my phone is idle, screen lights up for no reason. I don't see any incoming calls, messages or notifications. It lights up and returns to black in a second. When occurs the phone gets into a loop and acting this way forever.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] lfabre:

Is my only solution to change for another rom not based on cm7?

what rom do you suggest?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] lfabre:
I don't know if someone else cares about this issue but I think I've a lead.

I have made a backup of my ROM before the first time this pb occurred. Restoring this backup solved the pb.

Today the pb came back. It occurred because I was short of free space and I decided to clean the cache of each application.

Then the flashing pb - looping in lighting up and returning to black - is now back.

To stop it, I open each application installed on my phone in order to initialize the cache with some data.

No more flashing pb at least for one hour. Finger crossed.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] TheBlackWolf:
Got same problem plus proximity sensor problem also!

Both were solved by changing kernel......

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hyermann:
I think it is a problem with the kernel. You should update them! I suggest dragonnn's "firekernel" beacause it is the most developed one in the moment: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1675023 Just flash it with CWM. You will still keep oc and the custom governors. You can even save battery with this new kernel.

Just let me know if it worked, because it worked also for me! My keybackllights never ever ligthened up radomly again.

I've seen that the "The Ace Kernel beta 4" has been discontinued http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1606352 .
