[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rudjgaard:
Hi guys, I've been having trouble with my home router since i got a smartphone (xperia active).

I've had my current router for over two years, have the desktop wired to it and a laptop which uses wireless, and never had any particular issues. Eversince my phone got on the wireless network this causes the router to lockup in random and unpredictable ways. I've done a lot of searching on the web and found tons of people reporting wireless issues using multiple devices on home network, especially with tablets (KF in particular) but none gives a solution to the problem. The router is running fw from a USR9108, i never had problems with friends coming over for lan sessions or general browsing and never skipped a beat with up to 4 devices connected at the same time (no smartphones).

Since the phone came along i've been suffering from random wireless lockups, sometimes 3 in a day, sometimes once in a week, which require a hard reboot to get internet access back (once wifi is gone also eth loses connectivity)

Desktop (eth) + phone = no problem

Desktop (eth) + laptop (wifi) = no problem

Laptop + phone = wireless lockup

I tried switching wifi channel, giving the laptop and pc a static ip and making custom routing tables, i have removed anything which could cause overload of requests, double checked all dhcp settings, but all to no avail. After browsing a while leds on the router become static and the wireless one turns off. I've read somewhere it might be related to ipv6...

Has anyone got some suggestions I could try out before trashing the router for another one (with no gurantee this will solve the problem?)

Thanks for any advice

Try flashing your router using OpenWrt, DdWrt, Tomato or similar firmware, if your vendors software is buggy.

The same people who are pissing on this thread, are people who I never saw in Seanz's thread when his ROMs were active. I am quite happy that he's back. I moved to Majicks jb and Xperiance roms because they reminded me of sky with their stability and fluidity. I am happy that he's back and can't wait to see what he brings us next. The only reason I left sky is because I got bored and wanted to try something new with jb.

Hi guys, i need to know if the model i9020A has compatibility with 3g data (using GSM model no CDMA), and if it has OTA update for 4.0.4 without root, I have very poor information about it, and I need this information to buy it.

Thanks you guys.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brymaster5000:
Hey guys, just wanted to see what peoples experiences have been with the world phone capabilities. I will be travelling to New Zealand this December and want to get an idea of the best way to go about using my phone there.

I am currently running UKB, but would plan on using something stock like andybonestock for my travels...(unless we actually get the ics source before XMAS and we have a stock ics ROM that is 100% functional). I was thinking about buying a certain amount of data while there so I don't have to rely solely upon wifi hotspots.

What have you fellow users been doing when going abroad and what was your experience?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WhistlingDog:
I just got back from a 2 wk trip in Italy and ran AndyBoneStock just like you're thinking.

I simply used the preinstalled SIM card from Vzw and had them activate it so it would work with their European partner, Vodafone--more expensive than unlocking it and installing a local SIM card but I wasn't really planning to use the phone too much and this way I'd keep my own telephone number. I also signed up for Vzw's 100MB of global data for $25, as much for insurance against the occasional or accidental overcharge as anything else.

I was able to make and receive calls pretty much everywhere BUT the data connectivity SUCKED. Maybe it was the fault of their European partner, Vodafone or maybe I screwed up some setting, but I could only pick up a data signal the first couple of days and from then on, no data on the go (even in major cities like Venice, Florence and Rome). I kept getting notification that I'd lost data roaming but clicking the notification would only jump me to the mobile data settings page where I already had data roaming enabled, so I was never able to sleuth it out. I ended up relying on WiFi for email and web connectivity. And when I landed back in the US, my phone locked on to 3G within a few seconds, so I'm thinking it wasn't my settings. \_O_/

And another note, texts from the US always came through blank, with a "message format not supported" message. WTF?

So, what's the take-home lesson? See if you can talk to somebody who's traveled to NZ and get tips on whose carrier to use--Vzw's or a local SIM once you've unlocked your phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] xene97:
Not a problem

I've used the phone in Germany, France, Switzerland, London, and Malaysia with no problem. I called Verizon and had the SIM unlocked so I was able to use local SIM cards. I'm running rooted stock so I can't comment on any custom ROMs.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joeinternet:
I've used the phone in India, Amsterdam and London - stock rooted worked fine in each location. I had VZ unlock the phone right after I got it, but used the built-in Vodafone SIM and never tried a pay-as-you-go SIM since there really wasn't any need.

On my last trip, CM 7.2.0 worked fine with an APN change to use the "VZW Embedded GSM" settings I pulled from the stock ROM. The phone would switch from Orange to O2 to Vodafone NL depending on whatever it found in the area. Speeds were pretty decent as well. Texting worked, but I never tested MMS so I can't comment there.

This phone has been excellent for those reasons: working CM7 port, world radios and decent speed/features/battery life. It will be a tough search to find a suitable replacement.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] brymaster5000:
Thanks. Are you guys referring to the stock froyo - downgraded root as the ROM? It would be nice to use something like CM7 over the froyo...more options and whatnot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tmtmaats:
i used my dinc2 both in germany and in india during a trip. i had two pretty bad mistakes during this time.

one was that i forgot to have my sim unlocked so i had to wait for a week before i could ask my family in the U.S to call verizon and get the unlock code. i did get a few calls before i got a local sim that i mistakenly took and was charged the ridiculous roaming fee. i think it was like 8 dollars for just 3 minutes of talking.

after unlocking it, making and receiving calls were fine, but my data connection was a pain in the a$$. apparently vzw phones cant get apn settings automatically, so unless you have internet to look them up your screwed. i didnt know this at the time and i kept annoying the cellular guy because i thought he messed something up, but it was in fact my phone. i'd recommend getting an app like tweakker to get your apn settings automatically, provided you do have wifi connection.

other than all that, the phone is pretty great abroad. but i would like to know if anyone else got a full 3G connection abroad. for some reason i was only getting edge speeds.

ps. make sure you put your phone in gsm mode and not in global mode once you get a local sim.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] WookieFan:
I'd like to know how this goes for people, too. I will be traveling to Mexico and buying a Telus SIM or two for the trip.

Plan to use my DInc 2 and a used Aria for me and my wife.

My DInc 2 is unlocked and rooted but my first attempt at using a T-Mobile SIM was unsuccessful (on Skyraider). Will flash rooted 2.3.4 OTA and install tweakker apk and see how things go. Thanks to all for their input on this thread.

Would love to hear if CM7 is working well with GSM networks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] k1mu:
I've used mine in Europe with a sim from ekit. Reasonable price and good connectivity.

For New Zealand, they charge 49 cents per megabyte.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RangerSteve:
UK & Ireland

I unlocked my Dinc2 before heading to the UK and Ireland (really simple phone call to Verizon). I was running aeroevan's cm9 from 8/22 while I was overseas. While in the UK, I went to ASDA - the Walmart of Britain and bought a prepaid SIM (it's actually a Vodafone SIM) for 20 pounds that had 500MB of data, unlimited texts and 1000 minutes (I think). Popped the SIM in and filled out the APN settings under System Settings > Wireless & Networks: More > Mobile networks > Access point names. Changed the Network mode to GSM/WCDMA preferred and was good to go. While in Ireland, I got an O2 SIM for about the same price with a little more data. Changed the APN settings to O2 and was good to go there, too.

Hope that helps.

Thanks dude...I imagine NZ will be a similar scenario to the UK.

I thought it would be a good idea to share your Tasker profiles.

I recently discovered this app and after 3 years of using Android it feels like Android has a whole bunch of extra features.

My profiles are boring really but I'll share anyway.

My first profile puts my phone on silent between 2am and 10am.

My second profile turns off Bluetooth after 3 minutes of being unpaired.

My third and final profile waits until my screen goes off, waits 5 seconds,turns the screen on displays the time on an app called night screen lite (only between 9pm and 11am)

What are your Tasker profiles? :)
[Galaxy S III General] NatTheCat:
I'm trying to work out this app at the moment, getting everything I want it to do is taking me time.. Getting it perfect

The main ones I want is

After gps is turned on I want it to launch copilot live and radardroid, then dim the screen and turn wifi off..

Also a few other things like bluetooth off after un paired from car, silent mode at night and getting locale hooked up correctly.

[Galaxy S III General] myth1001:
I have one profile used for automatically transfering calls to my car.

Bluetooth will switch on when incoming call and outgoing call. Connect to car Bluetooth. Transfer audio to car. And Bluetooth will switch off after the call.

With this profile, I do not have to worry about switch on Bluetooth and connecting it manually eveytime I enter the car. Everything is done automatically !

Its indeed a great software.
[Galaxy S III General] valsacar:
I have one for work that rejects all calls and sends a text, also responds to texts. Both say at work will call later, never sends the text to the same person twice in a row. Also prompts me to turn it off after normal work times. Our don't use location since I'm not always in the same place.

Also, while at work it sends my wife a random text once or twice a day. I can't have my phone at my desk and she used to complain that I never call or text during the day.

Also, face down full silent and the Bluetooth others have mentioned... Oh and low power disables everything but calls and sms.

Here are all mine:

http://db.tt/JtJi6wbB

The 'Night Stand' profile requires an app called 'Night Clock' or a similar app. After a set time, when the screen has been off for 5 minutes and the phone is on charge, it will show the time in big text and stay on for as long as you exit. Very useful for quickly checking the time during the night.

How do you turn bluetooth off after 3 minutes?

If you could export the XML for your second profile to turn bluetooth off after 3 minutes of being unpaired, I'd be really really grateful, or just provide the steps in your reply.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] Arstoien:
Here are mine:

1. Kill a couple of apps on boot

2. Power Saver – mainly To turn off my WiFi profile

3. Call Brightness – while the phone's ringing, the brightness is maxed.

4. Keyboard Out – disables the display timeout for the time I've got the hardware keyboard out

5. Lost – checks for incoming SMS with one of two predefined phrases. On the first one it starts playing alarm sound (if I forgot where I placed it). On the second one it sends back the GPS coordinates and battery level and puts the same information in my google calendar, so I can see it from anywhere (source tasker wiki. Can't give the link, since I'm new here, sorry. PM me if you can't find it)

6. Sound Control – I hate the thousands chat sounds when I'm texting with someone, but I need them when the phone is not in my hand. So here's what this profile does:

Any time I turn the screen on, the sound volume will be set to 0, and phone will be set to Vibrate.

When I turn the screen off, the sound settings will be restored to their previous values, unless it's currently on MUTE. Then it'll keep it on Vibrate (!) until it's manually raised (in which case it will remember the new volume level). That's cause I never use my phone on "mute" (no sound and no vibration). If I want no sound, I keep the vibration on.

Sound Control Project:

[b]profile Display On[/b]
Contexts:
event: Display On
state: Not Call Incoming
apps: Not Alarms (or whatever alarm app you use)

Tasks:
Silent Mode: On (if %Mute ~ 1)
Silent Mode: Vibrate (if %Mute !~ 1)

[b]profile Display Off[/b]
event: Display Off

Tasks:
If %SILENT ~ On
Variable Set %Mute to 1
Silent Mode —> Vibrate
Else
Variable Set %Mute to 0
Variable Set %Volnprev to %VOLN (IF %VOLN>0)
Notification Volume —> to level %Volnprev (IF %VOLN~0)

7. WiFi Control – turns on and off WiFi when I'm at home/work.. wherever. The original source is from Tasker Wiki but it wasn't working properly so I did some changes)

Key points:

- It watches the Cell towers only when I'm not connected to wifi.

- It uses Wifi Near to check if I'm near the router ONLY when I'm within the Cell tower range and NOT connected to wifi.

- If I disconnect from wifi it waits a few seconds and checks if I'm connected before continuing.

I have one that sets usb debugging off at boot and displays permanent notification with usb debug status + theres an action attached to the notification that toggles debugging on/off.

This is to toggle debugging on when I need it and to make sure it's off when I'm not using it. I wouldn't want anyone to easily bypass the lockscreen should my phone fall in the wrong hands.

[Galaxy S III General] kaczus:
Sure, here it is.

You need secure settings with "helper" installed for it to work.

This profile uses %USB_DEBUGGING var to store current state of the setting as there is no way to read the actual state from within tasker (as far as I know).

The usb debugging will be turned off at boot, you can change this by changing the "variable set" action in "Start" task to 1.
