[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CerberusLabrat:
Recently, I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ off of the Google Play store, with the intention of using it for the Straight Talk bring your own phone program. Since popping my SIM in the phone, everything has worked perfectly, with the exception of mobile data. and I will explain further on that in a moment. I will stress that /everything/ else. MMS, Texting, calls, they all work just fine. As does wi-fi.

Before I noticed the issue, I had managed to root the phone and update it to 4.1 Jelly Bean while connected to wi-fi.

Currently I am fresh out of a factory reset, the only change has been to install the speedtest.net app and pop in the recommended straight talk APN settings.

These are the settings that show up in my APN setup after putting in /their/ settings. please note all links are spaced out for the purposes of making this post and they are in normal format in the APN settings:

Name:

Straight Talk

APN:

att.mvno

Proxy:

proxy.mvno.tracfone.com

Port:

Username:

MNC:

Authentication type:

APN type:

APN protocol:

APN enable/disable:

APN enabled

With these settings.I am getting the speedtest.net app results of

219ms ping, 7kbps download, and 1123kpbs upload.

please notice that is not a typo. 7kpbs. 7.

Now. I have changed the APN around. I have modified the standard Cingular APN in the phone to just add the settings above. In which case I have the following:

Name:

Straight Talk

APN:

a t t . m v n o

Proxy:

p r o x y . m v n o . t r a c f o n e . c o m

OR

APN type:

APN protocol:

OR

IPv4/IPv6

APN enable/disable:

APN enabled

Bearer:

All these setups provide the exact same result of high ping, non-existant download, and normal upload.

I have been able to obtain a higher, albeit still incredibly low, download rate of 160kpbs and a more normal ping of 118ms on speedtest by changing to the following settings:

APN:

a t t . m v n o

Proxy:

Not set

Port:

80

OR

Not set

I have popped my SIM back into my old phone, a Sony Xperia Pro Mk16a, and I get rates of ~120ms ping, ~4600 down, and ~1100 up.

I am thoroughly confused as to what could be the problem.

I have gone *#*#4636#*#* into phone information and my phone number shows up, as does my IMEI, I am not roaming, it says GSM is in service, GPRS service is connected, and network type is HSDPA. preferred network type is WCDMA preferred.

Does anyone have any other ideas as to what my issue could be?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moltenbobcat:
Try taking out the proxy line it has improved my straight talk speed significantly. Leave the MMSC as it is proxy remove the regular one then give it a shot. All other settings should reflect the APN settings provided by straight talk. Good Luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CerberusLabrat:
Perhaps my post did not make my actions clear enough. I have taken the proxy line out. It did improve my speed significantly (7kbps to 160 kbps) but it did not bring the results up to normal. I have come to the conclusion that there is either a setting within the APNs that I am missing completely, or my issue is not in the APNs at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdxtechdoctor:
from what I've seen you definitely do NOT want to set the proxy... other than that best thing would be to call them and complain about speed and you should be able to get someone to re-provision your account
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harveydent:
Are you on a custom ROM or stock? If your Xperia can pull Mb but not your Gnex on the same SIM, something must be wrong with the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CerberusLabrat:
I am running the stock Jelly Bean update, but I (was) rooted. I had an issue where I couldn't text just a moment ago so I have flashed the factory ICS image back into the phone and relocked the bootloader. so I'm no longer rooted. complete straight out of the box. I have SMS restored, but the same data issues on the standard APN settings from Straight Talk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CerberusLabrat:
UPDATE:

I've called Straight Talk, got confirmation from them that they are /not/ throttling me. Told them the various combinations of APN settings I have used with the phone and discovered that they have /no/ idea what could be wrong.

I've also called google. tech support there was very helpful, but the problem remains as the lady there thinks if my SIM is working just fine in my Xperia, which is a penta-band GSM/HSPA phone just like the Gnex, I shouldn't have any issues with the GNex...yet I do. She also doesn't think it's a hardware issue based on the fact that the HSDPA radio is working at all.

But I think I've narrowed the problem down to the way that the SIM and the Gnex are communicating, or something is up with the HSDPA radio on the phone. because the Uploads and ping are normal...so HSUPA is just fine.

For comparison. Here is a speed test off of my Galaxy Nexus, proxy line taken out of the APN settings:

Ping: 104ms Download: 157kpbs Upload: 1105kbps

And here is the speed test with my SIM in the Xperia Pro:

Ping: 162ms Download: 4629kpbs Upload: 940kpbs

Google tech support has tossed me up to their higher tech support agents and basically told me if they or Straight Talk don't find a solution to the problem within a week, to send the phone back and they'll send a replacement and tack it off as a defective HSDPA radio.

I have gotten the same results with the stock 4.0 image (flashed it back in), and with the OTA 4.1 update, rooted and unrooted. My dad suggested I try Cyanogenmod or MIUI before sending the phone back to Google. but that obviously has a stone throws chance in the grand canyon of working. As it is. I can survive without Mobile Data for a week, as both here at home and my workplace have wifi access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AngerMonk:
I'm seeing the exact same problem with a stock GNex and Straight Talk (AT&T provisioned SIM). I didn't get as far as you with Google/Samsung support... Samsung basically told me I need to take this up with Straight Talk although I explained to them the SIM works just fine on another phone. I ordered another GNex and I'm going to see if that makes a difference. I will also try to get an AT&T SIM and see what download speeds I get with that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bmach505:
I'm experiencing the same issue however is has been on two different devices, an HTC vivid and now a gnex. It worked fine in Dell device previously.The same SIM was used in all devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AngerMonk:
Ok, I got the new GNex in. The straight talk SIM still has the the download speed problems on it as well. I tried an AT&T SIM (official AT&T SIM from a friend's Galaxy S II) and it and managed to get 4Mb/s down and 1Mb/s up. So something is up with the combo of ST SIM and GNex. Both Straight Talk and Samsung were giving me the "something is wrong with the other guy" routine. I'm giving up and going to AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giant22000:
Wow, I'm reviving this from the dead as I'm in the process of dumping my VZW phones to go with ST ATT Gnex combo. Is this a widespread problem? Seems like this is the first thread I've read about it, but several people commented about having the same issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheIowaKid:
Here's the deal. ST SIMs have been getting throttled a lot more lately. They also don't reset after your pay cycle. You have to request that they reprovision your data on your account. You will be back to the correct speeds. I have noticed that I have been getting a very bad data connection lately that is only ST specific and not ATT. I get page cannot be displayed three times until it finally loads. Its like the data hiccups and doesnt realize its connected. My foil cap is telling me our free ride is about up and ST is going to sh#t. ATT is putting the squeeze on them and at some point we will only get around 150-200k for our "unlimited" data. I use that speed for two reasons. One, I got throttled to a paltry 150k. Two I think the reason they don't reset it is because they are trying to see how many people notice or try and fix it. If a lot don't, then they switch everyone over and reap more money because of less data use. Then offer a more expensive plan with full 3G/faux G with a true data cap. I ordered a Tmo card yesterday and plan to try the $30 5gb plan. I like to know my limits. Full disclosure is a better business practice IMHO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mau006:
Just switched to ST AT&T

I just switched from T-Mobile's $30 prepaid to Straight Talk AT&T. Went from getting 5 to 10 mb/s to 100 to 500 kb/s. I switched to get better coverage area here in Oregon, less problematic Google Voice voicemail integration, and the peace of mind of unlimited minutes. (GrooveIP is awesome but slightly inconvienient at times) But if the data is always going to be this slow I might switch back, or try another carrier/MVNO.

I have heard many AT&T MVNO users are getting crazy slow data. Did they just start more thoroughly prioritizing the AT&T users over MVNO users?

Polaris requires addition .so files. I'll grab the ones you need later when I get home and let you know. You can just push them. I added them to AOKP.

Supernote can just be pushed it doesn't have any extra requirements. For Splashtop you need to put the MyCloud.apk and another APK but I forget which one. I'll look when I'm near a computer.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David Dee:
Splashtop is included in the "My Cloud" app.

hello guys..

I've been trying for two days to get service back onto my phone... i've flashed back to stock ics and the phone worked straight away and allso more or less found my mobile network straight away ( Sim / sms / calls ) but for some reason cm9 doesnt work and cm10 installs like 4.0 not jelly bean for me? O.o any help would be awsome....

it allso worked on miui but i prefer cyanogenmod but just cant get the network working
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] borgsta:
CM9 doesn't have working GSM on Xperia S.

What do you mean CM10 installs 4.0? It is 4.1.1 it can't install something else if you have downloaded the correct file.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] elvirag:
Go to the devs forum, and install by the instructions there.

Did you forget the gapps addon?

You can follow my instructions, I installed it yesterday.

But notice that all your calls will go to speaker phone,

so I suggest that if you want a complete working version, wait for at least FXP131

Nope installed it and yes i know it should be 4.1.. i looked for the 7.2 and i dont see the one for the xperia s

So I'm pretty sure it was my fault, or miscommunication between apps/OS, but I wanted to give a heads up...

I'm only 2 days in, and came from a RAZR on Big-Red. Yesterday, I realized my texts weren't being sent and found that somehow I had lost data altogether. I had enabled a Smart Action to turn data off when connected to WiFi, not realizing that the phone did that automatically. (I think that was the culprit) I had also cleared the cache through stock recovery, and had Fast Reboot running every time I unlocked the phone. One or more of that combination of apps/functions made me have to factory reset to get data back.

After we get root, I'll test different combinations to see what may have caused it, but until I get my TiB back, I'm not touching it... Lol

I chose the red pill... Now I'm in the mAtrix and I know Kung Fu...

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SenorSmartyPants:
I just got into flashing my KF (noob, I know) and everything went smoothly except for this. I like the CM10 ROM that TWA put out and according to posts in that thread USB mounting works fine, but it doesn't for me. The PC and KF don't recognize that they are connected with a USB at all. There is no notifications on either end. This worked fine before I flashed. And I changed ROMs to Hashcodes JB AOSP ROM and USB notification and mounting worked fine there. I then flashed back to the CM10 and still no love.

So how can I debug this? What settings should I check? Are there an apps out there that will let me get more info about my setup to see if something is screwy regard USB. Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

I have tried a couple tips I found in the CM10 thread, but they didn't help. (specifically switching to Hashcodes ROM and back again)

Debugging was turned off. I turned it back on, rebooted and that did the trip.

Many thanks.

I think I will do a full wipe (was just doing the cache/dalvik after the first install) to make sure nothing else is screwy
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
no prob:)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SenorSmartyPants:
After playing around with this a bit something is still not right.

I have debugging turned on, but USB is only successfully detected if I reboot with the usb cable plugged in to a PC. Then I can mount and dismount as many times as I want. everything is fine. But once I disconnect the USB cable, the KF will never detect the cable plug in again (nor will the PC). I have to reboot plugged in again to get it to show up.

I've done this several times same thing. I've tried plugging the cable in at different points too, before I unlock the screen, after. Only when in from reboot to unlock does it work.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callmeshulah:
i have the same issue on mine, using twa builds

also, sometimes when i plug in the usb cable it makes the kindle run extremely slow and laggish, requiring a reboot.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SenorSmartyPants:
*Bump*

Does only detecting usb connected once per reboot only happen to the two of us in this thread? CM10 works pretty well for me, but this is a bit of an annoyance. I have a work around, reboot, but still...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al mon:
I have the same issue. In fact, I can't get USB storage to work after installing CM10 8/24.

But I think the issue has to do with multiple Android USB drives being installed in Win7. I have a TF201 and Xoom and when I plug in the KF, USB reports the TF201 being connected. Of course Win7 does not show KF in Desktop Explorer. The only way I can download a new ROM to my KF is via my NAS which I connect via ES File Manager....

Can anyone confirm that having multiple Android devices causes this USB confusion?

Unable to root! Stucked on TWRPP 2.2.0 Screen with several options

Hello!

I've tried to root my Kindle Fire, following the same steps that most of the users have followed (Using KFU 0.9.6).

Unfortunately, while installing the root (I guess) once it installs TWRPP, it inmediately boots up to the TWRPP screen with several options ( Install, Backup, Restore...) and the KFU software keeps a message that says Please wait.

Does anyone know how to fix this and finish the rooting of the device?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SenorSmartyPants:
I've been limping along just using the work around of rebooting while plugged in to get usb mounting to work.

But today I had KF mount to my PC, deleted the ADB drivers in windows from the device manager. Did a factory wipe on the tablet (even wiped the SD card), I'm running the latest TWA rom 8/28. I still can only get usb to detect if I reboot while connected to a pc. A couple little differences; after the wipe ADB was turned off on the ROM, I left it that way to see what happens. It does still mount (only after reboot, did I mention that ;) ) but now it shows up under "Portable Devices" in device manager and the Device ID string is different in some apps (on PC) "Amazon Kindle Fire" instead of "Kindle Fire" which is what it was before today.

What else can I try? Do I need to do a super duper wipe? Factory, reinstall ROM, cache/dalvik? Do I need to purge even usb android driver on my system? (And how would I do that?)

Thanks for any help. I would love to get rid of this issue and just be able to plug in the KF and not worry about rebooting all the time.
