Sv: compass sensor

Count me in on compass problems. I begin to suspect that there's a hardware problem. My compass never points north, and calibrating by rotating the pad does not help. Makes geocaching rather impossible, unless you bring your own compass...
[Asus Transformer TF700] fiidim:
Mine seems to be mostly right using the Smart Tools one. I get a magnetic field reading of around 42.the need jumps around a bit, but not more than +/- 10 degrees.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ShadowLea:
Ditto, Smart Tools points north more or less accurately. (49 mag) It's off by 15 degrees, and it's 15 degrees off in the opposite direction on my sgs3.

Open signal allows you to resync your network connection instead of rebooting your phone. But yes I've seen similar.

On CM7 (Droid Incredible), I had a flashlight app and I could turn off mobile data (when on wifi), both in the pull-down notifications.

Any suggestions for this on the Gnex?

Doesn't have to be pull-down notification. Just curious what people use for these features.

After having used my s3 for almost 2 months now and having a recurring problem with the browser i have decided to speak out!

The issue is when i want to go back a page using the bank button it will only refresh the page and usually i will need to press the back button 3-5 times to go to the previous page. I am unsure whether or not this is just me as i have not seen any other thread on this and would like to know if anyone else has been experiencing this problem and if they have managed to solve it.

Please no comments saying just download a third party browser ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Usually that is not the browser's fault and can be reproduced on other browsers too.

It happens when a page auto-redirects you to another. By going back, you'll land on the auto-redirect which again forwards you to the current page.

The only solution is, as you described, to hit the back button twice.

Browser manufacturer's could easy bypass this issue but that would potentially break sites relying on it to work and it would be a violation of how a browser should handle such things.

Hi Everyone,

I understand SIP has been natively supported on Android for a while now. Is there a Google native application that I can download on my Nexus 7 tablet?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] jptech:
GrooveIP
[Nexus 7 General] AZImmortal:
The native SIP client is in the Phone app, but I'm assuming that the Nexus 7 doesn't come with the Phone app?
[Nexus 7 General] torontobc:
Thanks for the feedback AZImmortal. You are right it doesn't come with Nexus 7. But isn't the phone app open-source? Can I not somehow get it on the nexus 7? copy and paste style :p But in all seriousness, I always wondered if the native dialer was customizable?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 General] AZImmortal:
I don't know what kind of customization you're looking for, but if you want a SIP client, you can use SIPDroid.
[Nexus 7 General] AndroidMilos:
Groove_IP works great. All ya need is your google voice number and set it up to "chat only" and enter this info into Groove_IP. Very easy setup.

Sipdroid (with pbxes account) is a lot of work to setup but has lots more power. I have not tested Sipdroid/Pbxes on this tablet yet. :good:
[Nexus 7 General] BamAlmighty:
If you use Google Voice, GrooveIP works incredibly well.

But you really need headphones or a bluetooth headset other wise it's a speakerphone.
[Nexus 7 General] derbed:
Headphones?

Will an old iphone earbud set with the built in mic be functional in the N7 headphone jack?
[Nexus 7 General] torontobc:
AndroidMilos - Please don't spam for Groove IP. I don't intend to use Google Voice and your answer is not relevant.

Reason why I am after native SIP is because it's native - no bloat-ware...

Maybe this will help me:

Ref: http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1109962.html
[Nexus 7 General] AZImmortal:
You might want to see if any of the custom roms already have the Phone app included. If not, maybe you can ask the dev to include it and explain that it's for SIP calls. I believe that the link you referred to is for enabling SIP when the Phone app has it disabled, but since the Nexus 7 doesn't have the Phone app in the first place, I'm guessing you can't follow the thread. You should probably be able to extract it from another JB ROM and insert it, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that. You should give one of the non-native SIP clients a try before you go through too much trouble to see if it will do what you need.
[Nexus 7 General] iraf:
SIPDroid

SIPDroid seems to work.
[Nexus 7 General] clubtech:
You can enable the phone app and the built in sip by editing the framework-res.apk file and changing "voice capable" from false to true.

This will enable the phone app however it will only allow you to add a SIP account at a density of 320.

So change the density to 320, reboot, add you SIP account, change the density again to whatever it was before and you got native sip working.

It works well on speakerphone but a little jerky with a BT headset.

If you don't know how to edit the framework-res.apk file let me know the ROM you are on and I will upload it for you.

I use the Bria Softphone (by Counterpath). I actually work for a VoIP company, and we use the g729 codec, and that was the best client I could find for android that supported it. Granted it's somewhat costly. But it works very well for me.
[Nexus 7 General] bongostl:
How do I edit the framework apk? Any advice would be appreciated
[Nexus 7 General] Horse Trader:
Yes, I use Bria, excellent, alos, 'VOIP by antisip' works, also has video facility, Sipbdroid works too, I have tried them all, but Bria is superior by far ..... my opinion of course!
[Nexus 7 General] pmauzao:
Hi there,

I'm on last Paranoid Rom, could you tell me how do i edit the framework-res.apk?

I love the native SIP of android, it's the best i've tried on my Nexus S.

Thks
[Nexus 7 General] barryflanagan:
I realize you are looking for native, but I have to recommend CSIPsimple if you don't have any luck with native. Very good, open source and hardly even has an interface - it is very well integrated with the OS.
[Nexus 7 General] pmauzao:
I've tried both native and CSIPsimple im my Nexus S and the native is way much better, CSIPsimple has lot of echos and noises...

Do you know the best config for CSIPsimple?
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
I've been using Bria (a third party app by CounterPath) for years.

Yeah, it has some cons and costs money, but it has always worked well for me. It also supports g729 and video.

One thing to keep in mind for VoIP and phones/tablets is if you want to stay connected all the time, versus only occasionally when making calls, you need to use SIP over TCP vs UDP. Most clients/providers default to UDP since it has less overhead works fine on computers/servers/etc. Assuming you are running a VoIP server or client on a computer or phone, especially if it's on the local network, UDP would be the preferred option. The problem on battery powered devices is that it will drain them very quickly. In my testing, leaving the client connected constantly will shorten your overall battery life by about half.

However TCP is much more robust and capable of keeping sessions open through NAT (which your device will pretty much always be behind), and requires less client level activity to keep the session open (hence more deep sleep). As a result, since enabling SIP TCP on my server, I can leave the client running all the time with almost no battery impact. It's like night and day.

Many people complain about VoIP apps and battery drain, and this is a simple fix to eliminate it.

You can't apply this update with stock recovery. You need to use ClockworkMod Recovery. Read some of the other threads here for more info.

No. You just need unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery.

as he said. but be aware that unlocking (with fastboot) will wipe your phone clean !
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crittias:
Correct. It's either wait for the official push to arrive on your phone, or unlock and install CWM. If you're nervous about it, try something like the Nexus Root Toolkit, which does almost everything for you (unlock, root, CWM, etc).

Can the RSAP be enabled by the developers. The feature was working in GB and its sad that Google/Android decided to take this out with ICS

The same phone S2 which supported Rsap is now not able to support Rsap after ICS updates.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
This thread is asking someone to port a specific i9000 rom of JB to this phone.

While some of the other threads on JB have been people asking the same question and then have users flame each other out when a dev(m4xm4n) gave a rough ETA of when he thinks his work will produce a jelly bean rom.

So maybe this thread stays open and maybe someone ports the rom but it's not the topic causing threads to be closed...no it's the users who start to think for other users and flame each other til mods have no choice but to close the thread and follow the rules we all agreed to when signing up for this site.

I'm not sure that as soon as the ETA mentioned we will already have the variety of ROMs to choose from or port from, as in ICS. We barely started enjoying ICS flavor and quite some time after ICS was live and kicking.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djleez82:
Hey guys, I just came off of the Galaxy Note to the S3. I never keep the data option enabled all day because of the battery drain, plus I just manually update all my sync'd apps anyway so there's no need for it to drain my battery & use up my pre paid credits at the same time.

My problem is this. With the galaxy note when I would go to either send or receive an MMS I wouldnt have to have my data connection permanently on. It would automatically enable the connection to send or recieve the incoming MMS, download the pic for me then automatically disconnect it when it was done. No muss no fuss. The GS3 does not automatically enable data to retrieve ur messages, you instead get a little download button in ur text you have to click. Problem is even after I enable data and click download to retrieve my mms, 95% of the time nothing happens, no activity is shown that the pic is actually being downloaded and you just end up staring at the screen for an hour until you get bored and turn it off, without your mms.

Is there a setting somewhere or something I can hack that will turn on the feature that will automatically enable data to retrieve your mms just like I had on the note? Its a bit hard to believe they'd have it on there then disable it on their brand new one. Not everyone likes to have data on all day :|

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonGarrett:
Hey, I had the same problem and I just fixed it. it will take you about 10 seconds.

1. go to mobile networks in wireless and networks.

2. choose access point names

3. menu button and choose New APN.

4. Im on AT&T so this is what I put (may be different if you have some other carrier)

Name: ATT PHONE

APN: Phone

that's all you have to put, everything else will already have values in there so dont change them.

5. once youre done with this just choose the APN you just created and your MMS will work.

**If you have a carrier other than AT&T then maybe this will work exactly the same, just find a phone with the same carrier and copy what's already there.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djleez82:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djleez82:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonGarrett:
Oh, that explains it. you could probably use the same method but copy the info from another phone using the Optus network. for example, here in the US, AT&T has several settings that I can choose from so if one doesn't work I can switch to another (which I did by inputting the info manually)

Maybe Optus has more than one setting so you can just use another. borrow a smartphone from someone and see what settings they have, if its different than what you're using now, try the one they have.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globalm:
Hi

I also have this issue but it is important to note that there is nothing wrong with the MMS settings. The problem is caused by the S3 requiring Mobile Networking to be active to send and receive MMSs, but I choose to keep Mobile Network disabled unless I specifically wish to use it.

On my previous mobile of another make, even with Mobile Network disabled, the network would come to life to send and receive MMSs and then switch off again. The S3 does not behave this way and needs the Mobile Network to be specifically enabled manually.

This is an irritation! I would love to know if anyone has a fix or workround for this.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djleez82:

S3 MMS data ON OFF issue

HI, i am having similar issue, as already said no work around, what i found is if i keep my data connection OFF i do receive normal message saying MMS waiting to be download so then i usually turn ON data connection and it gets downloaded, same is if i want to send MMS i have to turn Data ON and send it...... i am facing this issue as i previously was using Senstaion XE HTC and there was no such problem MMS use to by default make Data ON and OFF as per requirment but its a pitty S3 being a flagship mobile does not have such thing......

There are so many other issues as well i wonder why people are praising galaxy S2 and S3 all over web / forums reviews......

Cannot send vcard as a normal sms ..... where as HTC can.... Data ON OFF issue discussed above....... cannot send group message to more than 10 people where as in HTC i could...... Long SMS more than 3 SMS gets converted to MMS where as in HTC it was a bit more i guess 7 sms..... seems like a bad investment on Galaxy S3 only best thing is battery other wise all is just OK so its all hype out there basics missing and still people love S2 and S3 ........ dont know why ????
