[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greyhulk:
As the title implies, I have forced 3G mode on my AT&T GS3 in an attempt to save battery life. At this point, I'm just testing to see how much better it is with LTE off. So far, the results have been pretty promising.

I used this APN to do it:

Name: AT&T US

APN: wap.cingular

Proxy: wireless.cingular.com

Port: 80

Username: <not set>

Password: <not set>

Server: <not set>

MMSC: <not set>

MMS Proxy: <not set>

MMS Port: <not set>

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

Authentication type: <not set>

APN type: default,supl,agps,fota,dun

However, I noticed that I now occasionally lose signal in strong signal areas. The signal will just drop off for a bit, then come back. It's similar to how the Nexus GSM model was periodically losing signal. I have installed the "No Signal" app to track the occurrences and they seem pretty regular. I also removed the proxy setting from the above APN and the results are the same.

Trying the HSPA+ APN (below) results in the phone defaulting to LTE anyway. Anyone have another APN I can try, or any insight as to why this is happening? I'm aware that I could just go back to LTE, but I get pretty fast HSPA internet where I live and I'd rather have the battery life.

I do, actually, but thanks for asking anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarkFlasher:
I appreciate your attempt to get a good force 3G operation working.

After trying your APN, I noticed that it was just staying on H+.

I tried the other link posted in this thread and it seems to work better in my location (New Jersey), although it still switches between H and H+.

Although I appreciate bravomail for posting the link, I don't think the derogatory comment was necessary.
[HTC Sensation] anthony0721:
Hi all,

I have 2 htc sensations on hand

Sensation A was originally from Cincinnati Bell, it's rooted with ARHD 6.6.7 XE running good.

Sensation B is a factory unlocked model, CID HTC_044 (some asia model)

My problem is, Sensation A sometimes gets very low to non signal at some places (specially indoor)and the connection on mobile network is terribly slow (HSPA), while my Sensation B gets almost full or full signal at the same places and mobile network works good(HSPA).
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
yes do that

1.check the current radio of sensation B (settings-.about->soft wrae information->more->baseband)

2.get the same radio and matching ril from this thread

3.flash the both on sensation A ..using the instructions ..which are given in the same thread
[HTC Sensation] anthony0721:
help

Sensation A :

Before OTA ICS update:10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M (was great on data connection)

After OTA ICS update : 11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2 (acceptable)

Sensation B :

Baseband version: 11.69A.3504.00P_11.23.3504.07_M2 (not too good)

The only difference between both baseband is an U and a P, will this make that much difference? plus I can't find a file to download and flash it!

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The "U" and "P" are just carrier related,and should not make any difference to the radio signal.

Everything you need is on THIS THREAD

:)
[HTC Sensation] anthony0721:
thanks a lot, but which one should I get to improve my signal?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You must understand that signals vary throughout the world.

I cannot say what would be best for you in your area.

Sometimes you have to experiment with radios and rils,until you find the one that is best for your phone.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Do you flash a new radio base band version just like you would a Rom or kernel.and I know it goes off your area so does like go off of your city,state,country could someone please explain.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Check the md5 checksum and place the PG58IMG.zip on the root of your sd card and boot into bootloader.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Pg58img is what exactly?I'm sorry I'm completely new with radios.Is it the radio?and how and where do you find radios at to flash?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Everything can be found on THIS THREAD

[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
I always have high ping no.'s when I do speedstests is that caused by s in correct radio?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:

It could be that you are a long way from a server.

[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
Oh! O.k. Is pg58img.zip the base for the new radio.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

PG58IMG.zip will contain the radio.img which gets flashed when you put it on your sd card

:)
[HTC Sensation] Mesaman2012:
So the pg58img.zip will be my radio so if I live in phx,A.z. u.s.a. how do I exactly go about choosing some pg58img.zip to flash?Do I do a search like looking for a pg58img.zip in Phoenix,a.z. for a T-Mobile carrier.I'm just really new at this and confused.would you please help me out. :)
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The link I gave you is where you should ask radio specific questions.

mf2112 knows a lot more about radio/ril than I do.

I am sure he can direct you to the right combination.

If you're like me, you don't like having to pull your battery out to reboot your phone. When having problems with Odin I hate having to pull my battery out to simply reboot it when commands like "adb reboot" have spoiled me.

Here is a blank .tar file (just made in notepad) for Odin. Put it in the PDA slot and make sure Auto Reboot is checked. Click Start and Odin will reboot your Samsung device into Android. No wiping or writing.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TmmyGN:
great!! thanks a lot!! ;) how can i create a file like this that reboots the device in recovery mode? can you do that? ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lokeshsaini94:
To flash it in recovery you will first have to boot in recovery... So this means nothing lol... Use quickboot app...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] weehooherod2:
Sorry for the really late response. I too am trying to figure out how to make Odin tell the phone to boot straight into recovery. One method I found does work. Find the CF-Autoroot package for your phone (if it exists), pull the cache.img out, put that cache.img into an odin package (find a tutorial on how to do that elsewhere), then flash and it will boot straight into recovery.

For example. I made a a custom odin package for my Galaxy Note 2 using a TWRP.img and the cache.img from the CF-Autoroot package. Flashed it in Odin and it installed TWRP and booted straight into recovery! This way the recovery-from-boot.p file can be deleted in recovery before it reinstalls the stock recovery.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sagi2k:
can you help me, booting with odin on sgs1 to get into recovery mode. very importent

Wow you sir just saved my life. Thank You!

Power button on my skyrocket was broken, but I was able to get into ODIN and because of this reboot my phone!

Yes thank you again
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] weehooherod2:
I don't think I can help you out. CF-Root files don't contain the trick to boot straight into recovery. At least this is what I think, I don't have a phone that can use CF-Root to test it on. Picking apart CF-AutoRoot is what helped me. The Galaxy S 1 does not have CF-AutoRoot since that phone is set up differently than newer Samsung devices.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bokos1987:
Great idea mate, power button broken in my sgs i9000 and if it turns off i can only access download mode.. So via Odin and your file i managed to power it on fast and simple.. Thx again..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] uiz_kitten:
My phone is stuck in recovery mode because the home button is broken, but when I connect my phone to pc, Odin can detect my phone. Can I use Odin to reboot my phone when it's in recovery model instead of download mode? Thank you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Polskidebesciak:
^^ same question?

Can Odin just reboot?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Skorpion96:
If I understand correctly this is a blank (0 byte) file which does nothing but after flashing is completed because autoreboot is checked the phone will reboot automatically. Genius indeed!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] masterminds71:
Worked like a charm... just to add ... in newer ODIN instead of PDA you'd see AP. Also in Options remember to uncheck "F. Reset Time" and keep "Auto Reboot" on as mentioned above.

P.S: I didn't check what happens if F. Reset Time is on. Just posted what worked for me.

Note:

This is a exactly a tool for those whose "power button not working" to get out of any of ODIN or recovery modes when required. Usually it is decrease volume button + power/side key button for more than 7 secs to reboot and come out of odin mode.

Thanks XDA.

I'm having a problem with my Toshiba Folio 100 tablet.

I have all the required files and drivers, my device is rooted, fastboot installed. When I tried to install FolioMod v1.4 , I was successful but after booting into FolioMid v1.4 I had an "!" mark on the top bar, I checked it and it says "Internal Memory Blank" but when I go into settings it says Total Storage : 14.83 GB but Free Space is 0.00 mb. I think I messed up in the "Mounts and Storage" option in the recovery menu. When I connect my USB Cable it says "Unable to use your internal storage". All of a sudden, my External SD Card stops working and there's no USB Support on FolioMod v1.4 I guess cause the USB is not working anymore. All I can do is use fastboot for doing whatever I can. I can't install apps like ROM Manager cause there's no storage space. Please help I have rooted the device so warranty is void. No chance of returning the device back.

Any help is greatly appreciated =)

Thanks in advance.

I rooted my Galaxy S2 then rooted Blazers Sexy Can I rom. I did a back up of my stock rom after I rooted it. Now that Sprint/Samsung MAY be releasing stock ICS, I may want to switch over to that. The battery sucks on Blazers rom. Anywho, if I restore to my stock GB backup with root and get the OTA update, am I doing any damage besides losing root? Could my phone be bricked just restoring my backup and updating? Also, if I decide to not do the stock update and keep my root, can I restore back to my stock GB backup then flash a new ICS custom rom with no issues? I keep wondering because I see how if you flash an ICS custom rom, you have to go back to a stock version before you flash another. I am just wondering if my backup is enough.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
if you want to go back to stock el29 i would use sfhubs el29 1 click odin, then restore your backup....

if you want the stock system while keeping root just use the ff18 rooted 1 click as opposed to accepting the ota

if you're just upset about battery life but otherwise like the rom you're on now look into kobridge tweaks, and good practices for battery conservation- i.e. sync manually, set brightness low, etc... these could potentially greatly extend you're battery life
[Motorola Atrix 2] chriz7388:
Hi all. I am facing a very annoying issue wid my atrix 2. It automatically minimizes my apps while using them and jumps to homescreen. I usually go back to the app by tapping the app icon from "recent apps" tray by long pressing home button but this issue is especially very annoying when i m playing games. Sometimes i am able to resume them back bt sometimes it happens that i hv to start over the game after it gets automatically minimised. What i can remember is that i first faced this issue after i installed golauncher ex bt upon discovering this problem, i immediately uninstalled golauncher ex frm my phone bt m still stuck wid this issue. I m not too sure if this issue is due to golauncher bt it's really annoying. Is anyone else facing the same issue or somebody knows some solution? Plz help me...
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Try clearing GoLauncher's cache in: settings>applications>manage applications, find GoLauncher from the list and click the "Clear Data" button and reboot. See if that takes case of it.
[Motorola Atrix 2] chriz7388:
Thanks for ur reply bt as i already said, i have already uninstalled golauncher. Correct me if i m wrong bt i think android has a feature of automatically clearing the cache as and when you uninstall some app.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Not if the application's data is still held in the Dalvik cache. Do you have CWM so you can clear that with also?
[Motorola Atrix 2] chriz7388:
My phone is a non rooted one. Plz tell me how to clear it's data from delvik cache.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
If you're not rooted, you'll not be able to do CWM wipe Dalvik cache, I gave up on GoLauncher quite a while ago. Some like it, other do not. After one of the updates, I found the launcher laggy, and unstable. I'm using ADW Launcher and like it much better. There's many very nice launcher apps available, maybe try out a different one and see if you have the same problem- you may have some corrupted app data or something causing the FC's or whatever is happening...
[Motorola Atrix 2] chriz7388:
Other suggestions are also invited!!! Please advice if anyone knows about some solution that does not involve factory data rest. Is it that only i m facing this problem?

[Motorola Atrix 2] prasannapmv:
Boot into CWM and clear your dalvik cache it will remove any unnecessary files left by golauncher
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
No offense, prasannapmv, but he's already said that he's NOT rooted, and therefore he has no CWM installed, and cannot wipe Dalvik. This was my first suggestion, but he has no way to do this unless he roots and installs bootstrap/CWM.

To the OP, if I were you, I'd try another launcher (Go Launcher is not my favorite, and I have experienced lagginess, bugginess, and so on with it). Plus, its a little too "cartoon-y" for me as far as the original theme is concerned. The upside, I suppose, is that there are other themes you can use. But, try another launcher and see if you're still having a lot of FC's. Also, if you still are experiencing them, make note of which apps are FC'ing and uninstall them and re-install. Might have corrupted app data somewhere...
[Motorola Atrix 2] prasannapmv:
Yes to clear dalvik cache our phone must be rooted as far as i know. Your suggestion is correct he might try other launcher from google play and see whether the problem arise again or not.
[Motorola Atrix 2] kousik:
When you re-install an app, depending on your settings at Privacy -> Automatic restore, the previous data/settings may get restored too. Maybe temporarily you want to turn it off. If you do not find any solution may I suggest to use adb and try removing content of /data/dalvik-cache (adb shell "rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache"). This directory should be writable even without root access. Reboot immediately after clearing it. Remember next boot will take a long time as the cache is rebuilt. If you do not have adb setup in your PC, try installing android terminal emulator and execute the rm command from that shell.
[Motorola Atrix 2] prasannapmv:
Nice suggestion it might work, but I m still little doubtful that it will work on non rooted phone
[Motorola Atrix 2] kousik:
You are right, so you need to root to remove the dalvik-cache by shell command even with adb. So if some corrupted file is left in the cache, unrooted users have no way. Except maybe flashing a full image by RSDLite, which is maybe more painful than rooting.

There is another command "adb shell wipe data". Does that work?
