[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] przemas_r:
recompiling kernel with modified drivers also helps

I've tested several solutions found on the web, but none of them helped

(using Screebl, gsm.proximity.enable=false among them)

I ended up modifying kernel drivers (in case of my htc desire i was drivers/input/misc/capella_cm3602_htc.c)

I changed capella_cm3602_report routine to read:

static int capella_cm3602_report(struct capella_cm3602_data *data)
{
int val = 1;

D("proximity %s\n", val ? "FAR" : "NEAR");

/* 0 is close, 1 is far */
input_report_abs(data->input_dev, ABS_DISTANCE, val);
input_sync(data->input_dev);

wake_lock_timeout(&proximity_wake_lock, 2*HZ);

return val;
}

ie always return FAR instead of NEAR.

Then I recompiled the kernel, and reflashed zimage with fastboot.

Now it no longer locks the screen during voice calls.

Hello all,

first of all I would like to ask you if I can unlock the t-mobile option from my phone? I'm going to Greece in a couple of days and I would like to have a local SIM card with my phone. Can I?

Second but important. I would like to get rid of TSUGI ROM that I currently have. What is the best option for the GPS to work without any data usage?

Also I would like the new ROM to be clean and clear, meaning light and fast. I am having freezing issues with TSUGI lately which gets into my nerves.

Thank you in advance and hope to hear from you soon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zoppp:
Well to get your phone unlocked just call up tmobile and tell them that you are going to Greece and you need your phone unlocked. That worked for me when I asked for when I went to Germany.

For the ROM I would most definitely recommend the new 2.3.4 update from LG. Install the new baseband and ROM. I heard it is really stable and smooth. The gps is reliable according to most.

No don't use weaponx. It has been abandoned by the creator. Just go stock 2.3.4 because it's stable and the new baseband works with it

So you don't suggest ICS?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gpmartinson:
Stock

Beware not all ROMs have the unlock code. I needed to do an instant downgrade to a stock ROM in order to perform the unlock when I was in Europe this summer. I think I was on CM7.2. So, please have that with you when you travel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Icanthelplt90:
Just because it was "abandoned", doesn't mean it wasn't one of the best roms our phone has seen. I like to think of it as left in a perfect state haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zoppp:
It's a good rom agreed. But I don't think the new baseband works on it

[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyansky_1:
If you are traveling, I would not experiment with a new ROM. DO that when you come back home. Do the new OTA update as mentioned before so you have a stable phone with all the pieces working. I have ICS but some things are still broken that have not been resolved yet in all ICS ROMs.

Only T-Mobile can unlock your phone to use with other carriers. Or pay a service online for a fee. Have a good trip!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Icanthelplt90:
I didnt think he was on the new BB, but supposably owains BB fix works with new BB and old roms. I havent tried it because i just reflashed the old BB instead of the fix yesterday. But I would also agree that for stability doing an official update to 2.3.4 and then using SOC 2.3.3 is the second best way to go.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tlf55:
Hi, i use a Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 With stock rom and Siyah Kernel 3.3.2

I was wondering which of these 2 (LBE / DroidWall) is doing better his job ?

I mean block internet access to some app ..

It seems that LBE Is working background, and Droidwall don't ..

That means LBE is draining my battery life ?

So my question is : Which of these 2 is more viable .. Doing his job without draining battery life

Thanks ! :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mssngr:
I use PDroid and DroidWall. PDroid can be found here on XDA and does the same as LBE (and beter imo) and is also open source which LBE is not. And because of the premision/access you give an app like LBE/PDroid I prefer the one that is open source. DroidWall I also use even tough I read that it leaks data when starting your phone, I believe it was on the blog android underground. But I stil like the combination with PDroid.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rikk.hoff:
i used LBE and that was an eye opener to me. so simple, so effective, nice. but since i upgraded my Galaxy Nexus to Jelly Bean (with Paranoid Android mod) it doesn't work anymore, gets into a serious bootloop.

Pdroid is not available for Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean, either.

permission denied is lousy imo.

what to do?

what to use?

Guys my samsung charger is broken. I asked in a shop for new charger but its very costly. So temperory I am using nokia charger of my another nokia phone by using a usb charger connector at one end (usb connector having price only 10 Rs).

But when I saw carefully I come to know that samsung charger & nokia charger have following output

You can see that current in nokia charger is somewhat higher. Is there any side effect of this on our battery??? I observed that battery gets charged more faster with nokia charger.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] samisax:
If I'm not mistaken, the current on chargers is usually the maximum supported current. Your phone effectively "pulls" as much current as it wants/needs. So I don't believe it'll do any harm. Just be careful with the voltage!! :)

Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jan3586:
It's probably okay. I sometimes use my 1A rated charger. It may be a good idea to not use it while charging if the phone is heating up. You can also just plugin to your USB port although it will be a bit slower at only 500 mA charging current.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
@vishal: no issues.

According to some huge conference back in 2009-10, almost all major mobile companies decided to use the same usb connector for all of their mobiles, with same specification for voltage output.

The voltage input differs from country to country, while the wattage and current specification can be varied as per company whims (due to cost variance and battery specification).

So all Nokia, HTC, blackberry, Motorola, Samsung etc use the same USB connector.

I've used my chargers for HTC sensation and Samsung galaxy sl interchangeably for quite a long time now(around 4 months now) and no difference/side effects observed. No difference in backup hours, just the time to charge the battery varies with current specification when I charge with HTC as, it is 1000mA.

A friend of mine having Samsung galaxy s, had used his blackberry charger for charging. No issues. (he started using it before me)

I will surely provide the link of the same info asap.

Press thanks if helped :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] samisax:
iAmBalvinder, you must be referring to this:

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kamilien:
If adapter using USB to MicroUSB cable, there's nothing wrong with it since USB's voltage and current values are universal. Your charge time decreased because Nokia charger's current is higher than our charger.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ibaz:
there are no side effects as stated in other posts. i too am having a damaged samsung i9003 charger and its is too costly to buy. right now i am using my previous' phone charger (sony) for quite some time. no signs of anything up to this point =)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] thejacko:
iAmBalvinder is right;

mine is

5v DC and 1A (1000mA) and it is not even phone charger

it is kodak camera charger.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
To quote wikipedia, on the USB page.

"The cellular phone carrier group, Open Mobile Terminal Platform (OMTP) in 2007 have endorsed Micro-USB as the standard connector for data and power on mobile devices.[33] These include various types of battery chargers, allowing Micro-USB to be the single external cable link needed by some devices.

As of 30 January 2009 Micro-USB has been accepted and is being used by almost all cell phone manufacturers as the standard charging port (including Hewlett-Packard, HTC, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Research In Motion, Samsung, Sony Ericsson) in most of the world.[citation needed]

On 29 June 2009, following a request from the European Commission and in close co-operation with the Commission services, major producers of mobile phones have agreed in a Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") to harmonise chargers for data-enabled mobile phones sold in the European Union. Industry commits to provide charger compatibility on the basis of the Micro-USB connector. Consumers will be able to purchase mobile phones without a charger, thus logically reducing their cost.[34] Following a mandate from the European Commission, the European Standardisation Bodies CEN-CENELEC and ETSI have now made available the harmonised standards needed for the manufacture of data-enabled mobile phones compatible with the new common External Power Supply (EPS) based on micro-USB.l

Please refer to the wiki page for proper extreme links. :)

did u do that? maybe that will solve ur problem?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pulley06:
I did clear the cache. Should I reflash?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sagarwadhwa1:

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] maheepmaurya:
You don't need to reflash. Use Samsung Social Hub instead!!

Just open Social Hub. Add your Facebook account in it and activate contact Sync for it. It will work well:D

Maybe some "weird" redirections on those website generating potential "infinite loops"

that are stopped by "smart" browsers to avoid "bouncing" :D

The url you see on your address bar is not always the "true" url you're going to.

Some paremeters can be "hidden" (POST) and can cause some other behaviours.

That's what make you think the url is correct if typed directly.

If you were browsing those links recently without problems,

it looks like more of a website issue/modification than an HOX issue ...

[HTC One S] Dilnad:
I'd really like to put a new ROM on my one S but I just don't know what to do....

My last phone was a Nexus One and I had CM7 running on it. Was very happy with it but it seems there still isn't a fully working stable CM for this phone yet( at least from what I am seeing on this site ). Additionally, a friend did the rooting and put the ROM on my phone for me. That option is no longer available so I will have to do it myself. Now I can follow directions pretty well. I was able to root my Kindle Fire without issue. My problem is knowing who/what to follow.

There are a bunch of different methods of rooting the phone ( or so it seems ), some make sense, some seem cryptic. I need to know which one to use which is clearly descriptive and makes little to no assumptions of the users knowledge ( I mean android rooting knowledge. I don't need assistance in unzipping files and whatnot ). I just don't know how to pick the right method for my scenario. I'd also like suggestions on what might be a real solid fully functional and easily installable ROM that might be a good choice for me. I'm quite comfortable with ROM Manager( and paid for premium ) so anything that is compatible with that would be desirable.

I've looked through the One S dev forums and there's just too much for me to make heads our tails out of. Any help/guidance would be appreciated.

If the answer is "There is nothing out there yet to meet your requirements and lack of Android knowledge" I'll understand.

Thanks all,

Mike

[HTC One S] baseballfanz:
Once you have your custom recovery install make a nandroid backup.

Flash and play with a few ROMs to see what you like.

Also ask yourself do you like to to be almost like stock or AOSP type ROM.

Don't think in term of CM9 id not for your skill level, it's for everyone. Just flash and play areound with it, if you don't like it move on to the next.

I think once you get the hang of flashing ROM you'll be addicted to it.:D
