i found this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1576199&highlight=apn+settings and i'm applying them now, hopefully properly. Thanks sir. I'll check back and let you know what i find.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adfurgerson:
Other than APN settings and modem, the only other thing that I could add is build prop tweaks. There is an app called 3g/4g optimizer that will do that, or values can be set using root explore and text editor.

Edit... those seem like edge or 2g speeds, on cm10 there is a setting for that, it's in settings,wireless and networks, more, mobile networks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KeeperoftheKeywork:
Arg!!!> so i've reset my APN settings and encounter the same problems. Used the suggested 3g/4g optomizer to no avail. in fact i just ended up getting slower upload speeds. this is literally the only thing that's frustrating me in terms of my experience with rooting my phone. everything else has been golden.

HELP!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dsmboost:
Try checking your speed some time later in the night. It could just be a lot of congestion during peak hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RockRatt:
Also DONT USE the speed test app as it gives wrong speeds. Use your web browser and go to Speak Easy speed test here: http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ as it seems to be more accurate.

Some build.prop changes DO effect it as well. Not sure what your settings are but you can change them to see an increase. Shoot me a pm and I can post what and how to change the build.prop that I use if your interested.

Also maybe I missed it above and will look again after I am done typing here, but what ROM are you on? Stock rooted? Or other?

I'm using AOKP JB rom by Task650/ktoonsez (JB build 9.24.2012)

I know rooting has nothing to do with the issue i'm having per se, but the issue didn't start till i started modding the phone. (coincidental)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adfurgerson:
I recall reading a post that suggested trying a new or different sim card.

Edit.... also did you see my earlier edit regarding 2g network setting?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] KeeperoftheKeywork:
did not see the earlier post originally but i have toyed with the 2g settings, testing with settings both on and off just to be sure. with 2g only on, i'm getting half the normal speeds. at .14Mbps down. off i'm pretty consistantly around .30 Mbps down.

about to try something pretty rudimentary... asking ATT if they are throttling my speeds for any reason.

/wrists
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
2g? Edge?

there is no "throttle" on Edge, as there is no speed on edge. Im amazed you are able to perform a speed test on edge.

No reason to mess with Edge. Cant run a smartphone on Edge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adfurgerson:
Downloading at .30 is edge speed, there is a setting for "use only 2g networks" . I thought that option could have been checked, causing the slowness. If AT&T throttled the phone it would get that slow also.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
That cleared it up. Wasnt sure where the 2g part was coming into play.

There are apps, or maybe even codes that can tell you tower info, make sure you've tried different towers.

If you get no difference, flash back to stock, and call at&t.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] adfurgerson:
The use 2g setting will only show the edge icon for signal. Also in settings-about phone-status, there is umts. I think it goes 3,8, and 15 with 15 being the best.

What will be the fastest and smoothest rom and kernel combo for Nexus S ?

I don't need features like cm and aokp or anything i just want a fast, stable, smooth ROM.

Actually i switched b/w Stock, AOSP, Paranoid, CM10 Nightly...

but i can't decide which one to stick with... so i decided that i just need fastness and smoothness...

Thanks in advance for the reply guys :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
You tested all these but didn't notice any difference? Then what does it matter if we suggest you something? ;)

Want fast, smooth and stable? Don't need any extra feature? Then stock. Why look elsewhere.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saxena.siddhu:
I'm not saying that i didn't notice any difference but actually i tested all these over a month... so i don't actually remember the best one.. i'm just confused.. also i was looking for the community's opinions... what in your opinion would be the best... well correction stable is not for the matter... FAST AND SMOOTH IS ALL I WANT And so i am looking for a combo which gives me that..

thanks ! :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athhar:
Try my rom...

Or any other cm10 rom with bedalus kernel...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwibis:
If you're just looking for smooth,stable and minimal features: Rasbeanjelly with either trinity kernel or bedalus kernel.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikkkg:
Try stock rooted with marmite kernel or latest aokp with the same kernel.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrackerTeg:
This. Much faster and smoother than stock plus it has a few extra goodies.
[HTC Rezound] Dogbone737:
So I have noticed this with all of the roms I have flashed (can't remember if it happened with stock sense) but when my phone is asleep and I press the power button, the capacitive buttons turn on right away, yet the screen turns on around 2 seconds later. It's just annoying since my GF's Dinc 2 turns on instantly as well as my roommates DROID razr. Is this a Rezound thing or is my device just different? And if it's a Rezound thing is there any way to fix it, I have tried raising the minimum clock speed to over 1Ghz and still the lag persisted.

[HTC Rezound] JeramyEggs:
Check the kernel. I have had this problem with certain custom kernels, and when I switched, it went away...

happens on the stock rezound after ICS. GB was fine, iirc. sense 4 works a little better but HTC messed it up like usual lol

The kernel is built from HTC source with modifications.

It's probably fixable though.

[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
I have this issue happen occasionally with stock ICS (both the OTA and Global Leak), but only when it is very bright out (mid-day, sunny, cloud free) and the phone is in my pocket... pull it out in the sunlight and press the power button and it takes 15 seconds for the screen to "crank up", it's just like the brightness slider is being moved very slowly from off to where it needs to be. And it only does this when Automatic Brightness is enabled, if it is turned off and I am set at specific value, it never does it. Guess I just took it as a annoyance rather than a bug since it doesn't happen often for me.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aHance:
I'm on CM10 (9/19 build) and using Swype as my default keyboard. I love the quick reply option for texts, however, the stock mms.apk causes the return key to be the emoticon shortcut and I am not a big fan of that. I've searched all over and, so far, have only found the following solutions:

- install a modified mms.apk which gives me a return key, but causes me to lose the quick reply option.

- install a modified latinIME.apk which gives me a return key on the stock keyboard, but not on Swype.

- make a template that inserts a new line (with a character on the new line, since templates can't be blank) which seems like a lazy workaround.

Is there any way I can get the best of both worlds here, with quick reply and a Swype return key?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zdoe:
smiley return mms.apk

smiley for a return is really retarded. how did they ever come up with this. so where do i find a modded mms.apk? or i have to compile one?

i went to look for a pre-existing mms.apk on my phone, but didn't find one. thought it should be \system\apps\ - it's not. where then.

is mms.apk specific to CM flavor, or the phone model, or what?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regalpimpin:
In MMS hit menu, go to Settings. Then at the very bottom. Soft keyboard type ->show enter key....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zdoe:
is the soft keyboard setting from Mms.APK system wide?

i don't have this option - maybe it's only on ICS? i'm on gingerbread cm7.2. but also - do we think that this will affect messaging apps system wide? namely - i'm not using the stock sms app, but go-SMS, which does give me an enter key. my need for enter-key is primarily in weixin/wechat.

cheers.

i stopped fiddling with swype a long time ago - semc was the answer

i had updated my ROM to something based on the stock ROM, and the sony ericsson stock app is swype-like, WITH an enter key and multi-language selections, so i could stop fiddling with swype, who were hostile to user-requests, and wasting everyone's time with their licensing.

semc_intl_keyboard_textinput-tng.apk

this is from xperia ray st18i, modded stock gingerbread. i haven't tried it on anything else, but suspect it might work on any/most androids.

hope this saves someone some time wasted with swype.

I can only get the Google Music player to display controls over the lock-screen when PIN/Password/Pattern is selected as the Lockscreen.

If I try to have just the 'no security' swipe to unlock, the music controls aren't there.

I've tried all the different lock screen options under swipe, having 'shortcuts' enabled, information ticker, etc, have no effect. Still no Music controls.

Is this a bug, by design, or what? I would love to have the controls on the swipe lockscreen....

If anyone could shed some light on the subject I would greatly appreciate it.

All I've done between these screenshots is change from swipe to pattern lockscreen.

June 22nd, 2012 | by Gary |

For reasons unknown I started experiencing a 921 error while using Google Play (AKA Android Market) yesterday. I tried different reboots and removing my account from the device and re-adding it but nothing worked. Depending on how the wind was blowing I would either get error 921 or sometimes error 403. Once in a while it would turn up as error DF-BPA-13.

But I finally found the solution and it cleared up the problem completely! What you need to do is this (these instruction are for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich but the principle is the same with Android 2.x and 3.x):

Go to settings

•Tap “Apps” (in left menu)

•Tap “All” (last tab on top right hand side)

•Scroll until you find “Google Play Store”. Tap it.

•Tap “Force Stop”, tap “OK”, tap “Clear data” and if possible (but it might be disabled) tap “Clear cache”.

•Tap the back button to get the list of apps again.

•Scroll until you find “Google Service Framework”. Tap it.

•Tap “Force Stop”, tap “OK”, tap “Clear data” and if possible (but it might be disabled) tap “Clear cache”.

•Now reboot your device.

And that’s it! You may need to re-enter your Google account details but everything should be working fine!

[Q] & [A]:Will GT fit in Keyboard or Multimedia Dock with Samsung Book Case Cover?

For those of you interested.

I bought my SCH-i905 GT used and it came with the Belkin case. I never really liked the Belkin case as it added a lot of weight and girth to the Galaxy Tab. It also never fit correctly and made the button hard to access.

With the HHGregg deal, I purchased both the Samsung keyboard and Multimedia Dock. To use these devices the GT had to be removed from Belkin case, very annoying.

From all the reviews and videos I had watched, the best case for me seemed to be the Samsung Book Cover Case. But no one could answer my question:

[Q] Will GT fit in Keyboard or Multimedia Dock with Samsung Book Case Cover?

[A] Well I can finally answer this question myself. My wife got me this case for my Birthday and here are my findings. No you can not fit the GT device with the book case cover in either the KB or MM dock. Poor design planning on Samsung's part.

Fortunately, there is a simple work around for the Samsung KB. The device will fit with the cover if you pull out the device holder.

As far as the the MM dock, it think I'm going to cut it up with a dremel to get the GT to fit with the cover on. I'll update this thread if and when I get it done.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] Adalyss:
Thank you for posting this. I came searching with the exact same question because I want to buy the keyboard, but only if it fits with a case. It's a shame the Samsung keyboard does act more like the ASUS Transforme keyboard...

Update #1 - Multimedia Dock

I started looking in doing the modification to the MM dock but found a much simpler solution. The portion of the MM dock that holds the device can be easily removed. With the cover folded over it stabilizes the Tab.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FullSpe3d:
Hi, I'm new to rooting and to this forum. I have a HTC Desire that I am using that I rooted yesterday. The process was quite simple and I installed the Evervolv 3.0.0p10 - Jelly bean for HTC Desire yesterday and everything seems to run smoothly (apart from the camera but that's because its still pre-alpha) but when a new version comes out I don't know how to flash the next update without losing all my apps and game saves. I understand that you need to go into boot into Recovery mode then go into Clockwork Recovery but how do I backup all my apps? What I don't want is to restore to an older ROM with the apps on but what I do hope will work is somehow I can get the apps back on the new version of the ROM. Can someone help a noob here on how to do so please :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
also, before you flash any rom update, or any flashable zip, make sure you nandroid backup!

in clockworkmod: backup and restore -> backup

nandroid backup saves your phone's EXACT state: apps, contacts, texts, homescreens everything, so you have a safe point to restore to in case something goes wrong.

these are stored in sdcard/clockworkmod/backup, you can also move these on PC for safekeeping (plus they start to take up a lot of space).
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FullSpe3d:
Thanks I did install Titanium backup and I redid backups for everything (I think) because it says "1 backup" underneath all the apps. What I don't understand is how I can save it onto the computer and how to restore everything, such as the apps onto the new ROM I have flashed onto the phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
Plug ur phone into computer, select connect as disk drive and u can browse through ur files on sdcard and just copy the backup to computer or if u have a card reader, use that and do the same. To restore the apps on new rom just put the backup back on ur sdcard and download titanium backup from playstore then u can restore them. Never used titanium backup but im sure its pretty straight forward. Maybe eddiehk6 will give better instructions.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] insertnewsn:
Hi Everyone - I'm copying another post I just submitted to the Samsung Captivate forum (where a specific question about ODIN via Parallels Desktop on Mac was posed). I was able to bring my phone back from the dead (soft brick - flashed a recovery zip instead of a recovery IMG) using the following method

Successfully ODIN'ed a new recovery IMG on Windows 7 (in conjunction with Parallels 6 for Mac OS X 10.6.8)

Used a random Windows 7 iso I had lying around. This was a brand new Windows installation, and no out-of-the-box modifications were made to OS X, Windows, or Parallels (except for downloading/installing the Samsung USB drivers, as suggested in a separate post in the Samsung Captivate forum).

My SGS3 was actually soft-bricked (Could not boot into recovery OR download mode.. Holding the power button would greet me with a "Could not do normal mode. Booting into Odin Mode" error)

Turned phone on (auto-booted into ODIN mode), plugged it into the Mac via USB, and was greeted by a dialog noting that a USB device was detected. It asked if I wanted to access the USB device via Mac or Windows 7. Chose Windows 7, and Odin was able to connect to it flawlessly.

If there are any questions, please let me know. I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to find a solution (I'm on vacation in Germany and for some reason Windows PC's are avoided like the plague) and didn't want to go through the trouble of using Parallels unless it was confirmed working. For others in the same boat as me, let this be your confirmation. It works!!!

Hey jsut wondering if anybody on this site is in the Ontario area and where they got their phone + when..

I cant seem to find an xperia play that works on local frequencies.

I recently received the one i ordered off Amazon. But it is not accepting my SIM, it cant even be unlocked cuz its an international phone..

Is there anything I can DO?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcarbox:
These are the frecuencies supported by Xperia Play in its GSM version:

GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900

UMTS HSPA 900, 2100 (Global except Americas)

UMTS HSPA 800, 850, 1900, 2100 (Americas)

Probably the UMTS frecuencies for America are supported by the R800a and the other ones by the R800i.

If you need a R800a and you have a R800i maybe you can flash a R800a rom to modify the supported frecuencies. Search this issue in the forum, you could find something about it.
