[General Questions and Answers] sidx64:
HI Guys,

I have a peculiar problem, and I hope someone can help solve this:

My phone is a Galaxy 3 (I5801), and I just installed Kyrillos ROM 10.6 on it. I had previously created a 1GB ext4 partition using CWM in my 8Gb card. From Kyrillos' post, I only have to do this much to enable hybrid data2sd, where all the new apps get installed in the sd-ext (1gb) partition on sd card. It seemed to work fine, I removed unwanted launchhers, made backups using Titanium, and plugged the phone to My Linux Mint system.

I copied data to the sd card (6.x gb partition) (and the 1gb ext4 partition was also auto mounted).

I rebooted the phone, and all the newly installed apps (which went to sd-ext) were not visible anymore. I tried to find them, but they were visible as ghosts in the applications list in settings.

I am guessing that the ext4 partition is not getting mounted.

Why is this happening? any ideas? please help!

EDIT:

Here is the output of the "mount" command from terminal emulator

$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

UPDATE 2:

The problem occurs only when i restart phone after connecting it to Linux Mint (Which Mounts the EXT4 /sd-ext partition. if connected to windows, no problems occur....

Any Ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] agent071:
I have (almost) the same problem. My data2sd isn't working. link2sd desn't see my partition at all. And if I try to use hybrid data2sd I have to use it with either "g3mod config" or KMApp, but then I have this issue with ghost apps.

My phone is i5800, and if I enable BLN in KMApp (which is only for i5801), the apps stay normal, but I get sleep of death issue with screen.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
As several people have experienced, when upgrading their HTC One S to the 4.0.4 update, FoxFi (wireless hotspot program that doesn't require root) has experienced some issues. It works and works well, but when the screen times out, it stops transferring data to the connected device. Keeping the screen from turning off is NOT a permanent solution, so I am asking for suggestions and/or proven solutions to this issue.

HOWEVER! There are some restrictions for the solutions I want to see:

-Do not want to require rooting the phone or flashing a ROM. I consider that the easy way out.

-Do not want to downgrade to the previous version. The update does have some nice advantages that I like. Also would be an easy way out.

So if you have any settings that I should be looking at, or software that could be working in the background that might cause it, I'm all ears. If T-Mobile/HTC release a patch, I'll download it.

So.... any ideas?
[HTC One S] usaff22:
You can't downgrade from 4.0.4, or for that fact any software update, you can't downgrade. It's one of the consequences of being on T-Mobile 4.0.4 update.

I don't think there's a way, apart from connecting your phone to your computer via usb, and selecting "stay awake" mode.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
Well, the WiFi works fine until the screen turns off. I can keep the screen from turning off so that's not a big deal.

And I included mention of a downgrade just because I wanted to head off anyone trying to suggest that.

I'm not giving up on this. There's either a setting that the phone defaults back to, or a patch that should update this.
[HTC One S] dc211:
I agree with you that there has to be away to get it working again. The other 2 recent radios out of Europe exhibited this same behavior on AOSP based roms. However, it behaved correctly on Sense based roms ie. Stock or Viper rom.

I think the easiest way to get the functionally back is to flash on Viper Rom and test if it works there. If it does then T-mobile just screwed up their rom or did it on purpose. If it doesn't work then that opens up a whole other issue.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
I'm not about to flash my phone in specific (It's my primary phone and I can't afford to have it out of comission if I make a mistake), but if someone can provide that information it would be useful.
[HTC One S] cheaplikeafox:
yeah this is a very odd problem with foxfi...I wonder how it shuts off the connection when the screen turns off. also why were you guys using foxfi before if you could just add a new apn and the hotspot worked fine? Now the new apn method does not work after the update though.
[HTC One S] Ready2Mosh:
Yes FoxFi worked correctly on 4.03, there is a hitch to the data shuttng off once the screen cuts off. If you are say watching netflix with a constant data draw from the one s, the screen can tun off and you'll still be tethered, but once the constant data draw stops so does the data until screen comes back on.
[HTC One S] Jack.Swindle:
You guys doing something special to connect with foxfi? I can connect to my phone when I turn it on, but the computer I'm trying to tether to always says no Internet. I can live with the screen time out, but I can't get it to work at all sense the update.

Edit: I can't connect to Foxfi at all from my computer.

Edit2: I uninstalled And reinstalled foxfi, now it's working!
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
I have a similar problem, ie. not related specifically to tethering but in general to wifi stopping working with screen off.

I opened up terminal emulator, chose menu>activate wake lock and voilà! Everything's working fine for me now! :good:

Try it out and hit thanks if helped!
[HTC One S] Ready2Mosh:
For me data still stops while tethered when screen goes off unless it's a constant data pull.
[HTC One S] beccadevin:
Go to settings tap WiFi open menu go to advanced select keep WiFi on during sleep and set it to always let me know if this works:D
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
FoxFi never required the new APN method to work previously. In 4.0.3, I never even heard of the new APN method, but still got it to work.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
I've tried that as well. To be sure, I tried turning it off and back on again, and it doesn't seem to have an effect on the connection.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
Well, on the HTC One S I could just set the screen to not time out. that seems to accomplish the same goal, would it not?
[HTC One S] TheArtiszan:
Yeah you can do that.

Mine works ok too while the screen is on.

But while the screen is on it is taking much more power to a process that already takes alot of power from the phone.
[HTC One S] Ready2Mosh:
And not only that but burn in on the screen, saw one at tmobile store with horrible burn in.
[HTC One S] cheaplikeafox:
well since foxfi turns on wifi to do the wifi hotspot, then maybe it is related to this problem. do you have to root your phone to open up a terminal emulator or did you just have to download a terminal emulator app to do that?

yeah...adding a new APN worked with the built-in hotspot so no extra apps were even needed to use the hotspot. That method worked on the Amaze and then on the One S before the 4.04 update.
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
Nope, root is not required. Just download "android terminal emulator" from the play store and choose wake lock from the menu. There is also wifi lock if you wanna try. Wake lock is sufficient for me though.
[HTC One S] TheArtiszan:
Yeah I tried using the take wake lock option in terminal emu on t-mo us one s and it won't work still even with that being on.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
Well, I'm assuming that wakelock would keep the screen on. I don't know if it would do anything else.
[HTC One S] Ready2Mosh:
The issue is once data stops being drawn from the one s when the screen is off, tethering or anything related needing data stops, turn screen on and data flows again. Now there is a work around if you are streaming netflix or anything that needs constant data on tethered device thats hooked up to the one s.

Start whatever tethering app, keep screen on, connect device you want tethered keeping screen on the phone, start netflix, hbogo, whatever and even when the screen on the one s shuts off the data will still flow, it's just once it stops using a constant flow of data it kills the tether.

Try it for yourself, I've streamed stuff from netflix with this method and the screen off, you just cant surf the internet or stuff that uses data once in awhile.
[HTC One S] jhooper90:
While that is a minor work around, I do want to browse the internet that way. It makes it into a huge pain.
[HTC One S] nor-ric:
No, it doesn't keep the screen on.
[Nexus S General] calvo619:
Hi there so my power button has broken so with that locking and unlocking my phone has become a right pain. Ive managed to sort out the locking part i just cant seem to find a way to wake my screen up after its locked.

Ive tried widgetlocker with no success

Im running the newest version of MIUI if this helps.
[Nexus S General] mauro1992:
Not sure about MIUI, but custom roms like CM10 and AOKP have a menu unlock function. Pressing the menu key will unlock the screen.

Hope this helps.

EDIT: I had the same problem on my old HTC Desire, but that phone had physical buttons. Not sure if it works for nexus s.
[Nexus S General] calvo619:
Okay thanks i might just install CM10 then
[Nexus S General] Naa Laa:
MIUI v4 has that option as well. I don't remember the exact location .. try under "Buttons" or "Developers Options" under settings.
[Nexus S General] calvo619:
Oh thank you so much for pointing this out :) All sorted now
[Nexus S General] dirt:
There are also several roms that have the volume wake mod in settings, so that you can wake the screen up using the volume rocker, as long as you aren't streaming music.
[Nexus S General] VerminX:
I suggest you check out the following:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.itsme4ucz.screenoff

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.android.smartscreenoff

And...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wildroid.wake.up.screen

I've been using proximity off for months now, even thou my power button is fine.
[Nexus S General] X1111:
you can install cm10 nightlies and use "volume rocker wake" option for turning the screen on, without power button.
[Nexus S General] polobunny:
Haha guys I'm pretty sure his problem is fixed. He got pointed to volume rocker wake in MIUI already. :p
[Nexus S General] albundy2010:
Turn off the lock screen altogether in settings.

Press a volume key.
[HTC EVO 3D] akiradavis:
HI guys,

So I went into the EPST and changed a couple of the 3G/4G settings like I usually do. I committed the modifications and the phone restarted but never came back. It will get past the HTC splash screen but will get stuck on the boot screen. The boot screen does not seem to be looping but it's been like this for almost an hour. Has anyone experienced this?

Hboot: 1.58 JuopunutBear

Radio: 1.09.00.0706

Thx in advance
[HTC EVO 3D] gav83collins:
Not personally, did you nand before Changing the settings ? I usually let v6 supercharger , enhance my 3g connection
[HTC EVO 3D] akiradavis:
Nope. Just straight EPST. I was able to fix it though. I had to reflash the official 2.89 hboot (1.58) which included the radio V2 partition. Afterwards, I flashed a stock rooted ROM and was able to get in. Thx for the help though mate.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperKeeper:
I have LXdroid ROM 0.2 on my device at the moment, but the last few days I've noticed I can't take any screenshots using the inbuilt program (long press power button-> screenshot).

I tried fixing permissions however I always use a separate SD card when I'm using ClockworkMod (e.g. doing a nandroid backup, flashing a new rom) so after doing this, the screenshot worked.

However! Putting back my normal SD card results in that error. Bear in mind that the screenshot has always worked before regardless of what GB rom was flashed, so the problem must lie in the SD card, have I deleted something that may be required for saving it?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperKeeper:
Found the problem. Turned out I had ZERO space on the SD card. Something must have filled it all up, is there any apps that can clean the SD card, especially as there's probably lots of stuff for apps that I haven't installed after flashing a new ROM.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
there are a lot .. try using sd maid for instance...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperKeeper:
Thanks, SD Maid cleared up a few hundred MBs.
[Motorola Photon 4G] quinielascom:
I removed in my phone several apps but in menu still is a entry for Sprint ID, then i want remove or replace the default app for this button, in another words replace shortcut destination/folder for when i select/open Sprint ID instead open other app.

In this menu (example):

Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bock Abrams:
I'm sorry, what?

Most custom launchers like Launcher Pro will allow you to hide apps from the app drawer, but for the Menu, I am unclear on what you are trying to do.

Are you trying to add a shortcut to the sub menu? I don't see Sprint ID anywhere on that screen-shot, confused on what exactly you're trying to replace.
[Motorola Photon 4G] quinielascom:
i want stock launcher.

This screenshoot is not mine but that menu open with same key in my phone, i´m not sure which name is.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Bock Abrams:
Oh, okay. You mean this.

Yeah, the only way I got around it was installing a replacement launcher.

If there's a way to replace that option on the menu, I'm sure that it'll need to be flashed over, and at that point you might as well try out another ROM

Something like this, which is a stock rom that has been de-blurred, and most of the Sprint bloatware removed.

Hi Everyone,

I recently purchased iconia a100 for the following purpose:

1. To be the GPS in my car

2. SHow me over ODB interface (ELM 327 BT) all that i want about my car.

3. To be my car entertainment (Audio / Video )

In terms of first 2 : everything is great and works great (gps signal was real sh*t until i flashed flex rom).

The 3rd point is also great with one exception:

When connected to car amp (via car radio) or (for the testing purposes) any other expernal speakers or headphones the sound is only good on one channel.

The other channel is VEEERRRYYYY low. almost no sound there.

I actually bought Acer dock station thinking that this might fix the issue but.. no....

Its the same thing even via the dock station same channel is very low.

Anyone has similar problem ? anyone heard of a similar problem ?

(from what i can tell when the sound comes out of the internal speaker both channels work just fine.... yeah just checked with stereo test and its all good when on internal speakers)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] das_webos_transformer:
What do you mean by channel?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
He means left and right channels. I was going to say a hardware issue with the jack but the dock also shows the issue, and it does it with anything else? Headphones different cables etc?

Tapatalked from my Galaxy S II.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] xarloq:
yes correct ;)

and yes again, tried it with docking station and without and with both tried with my logitech speakers headphones and othe rheadphones

i listened for a bit more and realized that the sound comes form both channels one (left) lower then the other and on top of that its mono.

I've taken the tablet apart : back cover the battery and the volume controls pcb with the headphone port the latter wat disconnected during the test to make sure that the port is not affectin the sound (factory diffect during soldering and there is an semi shortcircuit between the channels) and it did not make any difference.

One other thing that it could be a something wrong on the board (soldering mistake ? ) right after separation for internal speakers and headphones/doc.

if it cant be fixed easily i think ill just simply remove the speakers and use that output (i dont really need the speakers when its in my car :D )
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] maek_it_happen:
Mine works perfect in my car .

Are you sure its not a setting in your music player ? Sure its plugged in fully ?

Is your jack dirty or clogged ?

[HOW TO] Get Google Voicemail working on CM10 ROMS (An Alternative to the AT&T VVM)

Hi guys. So I cant get the AT&T's visual voicemail to work on the CM10 ROMs due to the way audio files are saved and played (still not sure).

I tried to set up Google Voice and when setting up the application after install, I STILL could not get the voicemail forwarding to the Google Voicemail to work.

HOWEVER! I finally got it to work... Thank you useless AT&T customer service.

The problem was that google voice app tries to set your voicemail on the phone app-->press phone settings--> voicemail.

HERE's THE FIX!

Go to phone app --> "press menu" --> "press phone settings" --> press call forwarding

NOW! In call fowarding settings change the numbers of the following to your google number (make sure to insert +1):

a) forward when busy

b) forward when unanswered

b) forward when unreachable

Thank is appreciated!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] FluffyRabbit:
Last time I was on CM10 and AOKP, it was as simple as setting it up as changing the Voicemail settings.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mllm0304:
This finally worked, however not the first time, I had to get a new google voice number and I DID NOT "activate google voicemail on this phone" in the settings. When I pressed the "activate google voicemail" I was getting error messages when I would try and test it.

This is working atleast for me after days of trying.

Got Visual Voicemail to work

Hi all, I actually had the SKY ICS rom installed and I backed up the app and data using rom toolbox and it worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LoSt180:
Interesting, I'll check those settings.

However, I've never gotten the Google Voice app to set up voicemail correctly even on stock ROMs. The solution has been to leave it set to "carrier" and then follow the instructions on the Google Voice WEBSITE.

The instructions are carrier specific, so for AT&T:

Open the phone app.

Enter the following exactly as written, as if you are dialing someone:

*004*15559991234# (with "5559991234" being your GV number.)

Press "Send" or "Call" on your phone to dial that number. When you see the confirmation message on your phone, you are done!

This changes the forwarding settings on the Carrier's end.

I tried all the tricks google said and att said to do. this is the only way for me to have google voice as my voice mail.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] litshredder:
I've noticed when setting up Google voice with its built-in setup, you have to switch the tick in voicemail settings to Google voice, then hit the back button til you get back to Google voice app, DO NOT press the configure button in voicemail settings, you must back up til the screen swaps back to Google voice, then it will automatically start the configuration process, and setup is complete. Let me know if this works for you (it took me a while to find it out, found it on some random thread somewhere)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jee'sgalaxy:
I tried this, but I kept getting error. The in app setup of the voice mail will not work unless you're really lucky. What my method does is that it changes the fowarding number in the SIM I believe. That's why now, if you flash new ROM on top of the previous, the fowarding number will still remain. I found my method to work every single time.

Thanks for your suggestion and input man!

Re: [HOW TO] Get Google Voicemail working on CM10 ROMS (An Alternative to the AT&T VV

Thanks a lot man!:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] voxluna:
And given. ;)

FWIW:

OK this an ATT thread, but this fix works on T-Mobile as well. In fact, it should work on any CM10 phone, because all it's doing is setting the same things that Voice would be doing were it not wonky.

I'm pretty sure your carrier can manually set these numbers on their end, too. But as I just found out tonight, you'll have a hell of a time getting Tier 1 tech support to even understand the most basic premise involved. However, I have, in the last year, had TMO successfully set this number as the transfer/voicemail default.

Also, and correct me if I'm wrong, I thought there was a USSD code you could enter from the keypad that would set this transfer number, too.
