more ideas?

Pretty sure is using only 2.4Ghz because wifi analyzer didnt show any stars about it.. what channel, cant tell u cuz i dont know how to check it.. router is not the problem cuz is happens in all wifi connections.. can i try installing a custom kernel that boost the wifi or something like that?

when i use it really close (less than 1 meter away) to the router or in adhoc with my laptop, the up/down speed is totally fine, the problem is the wifi signal range is so weak at distance over 1 meter which then affects also up/down speed.. im desperate.. thanks for responding..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gargoyle_48770:
Have u checked for interference from other devices. I am haveing trouble with that. My apartment buildings router is in my hallway so anywhere near it cuts my own WiFi down. Try turning everything off except ur router especially if you have a cordless phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] josuemolina2000:
I dont have any other devices but the problem is not only with my router, is with ALL WIFI connecctions, ALL routers.. i dont know much of it, but i think is something about my phone signal strenght.. thanks for answering..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Sully6789:
Have you tried flashing Instigator X's kernel with CM9? Sorry didn't see the part where you said it does it on public WiFi too. Flash X's kernel and if you still get bad signal, it might just be a hardware issue and it might require getting it sent in. If you're back on stock try flashing Mohan's Cymbaline kernel.

Hi guys,

yesterday I have tried to flash androi revolution 6.8.0 on my sensation, but when i have reeboted it have appeared the white screen... my previous rom was the android revolution 6.7.2 for this reason when i flashed the new ARHD I did it whithout superwipe... so what should i do? I can only enter in hboot and recovery i' am disperead!!

thank you for your help!
[HTC Sensation] matekaneve:
what recovery do you have? is your device s-on or s-off? If you are s-on you need to flash boot.img separately or enable smart flash in 4ext recovery if you have that installed on your device.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Okay, first off calm down becaue you haven't screwed your phone up.

If you can get to recovery, odds are the phone works perfectly fine.

But you did bork up the ROM somehow. All my following advice assumes you are S-OFF. Don't do anything if that's not correct.

Here are your options....

First your cache might be loused up. Go to 4EXT and wipe cache and dalvik and reboot. See if that helps. I don't think this will fix your problem but it's simple and quick to try so why not give it a shot?

Next, if you made a full nandroid backup of ARHD 6.7.2 then you should be able to restore it from 4EXT Recovery. Just go to the restore section and tell it to restore 6.7.2 and it should flash it and boot right up.

If you didn't make a nandroid, you've learned a valuable lesson on why you ALWAYS make a nandroid before flashing a new ROM. ALWAYS!!! So this experience is still a positive for you because you've learned something.

Unfortuantely that means you have an unbootable screwed up ROM installed now that contains all of your user data. And you're going to have to wipe that clean to start this over. So go to 4EXT and do a full wipe, or use Superwipe, then install ARHD 6.8 from scratch. It should boot right up. If it doesn't, download a new copy of 6.8 and put it on teh SD card and try again. It could just be a bad download.

You might even try installing 6.8 again overtop of whatever clustered up mess you've got on there now to see if it resets everything without losing user data. I don't think that will work, but it won't make it worse.
[HTC Sensation] affo93:
Ok, first of all thank you!

I have tried to make a superwipe and install again ARHD 6.7.2 i had on sdcard but no change, but i have noticed maybe an important thing... when i go in recovery appear this

" your 4EXT theme got corrupted! It was unistalled to prevent damage.

4EXT smartflash is courrently set to update your boot partition on nest system start.

is this wanted or should it be removed?

remove smart flash?"

Could be important?
[HTC Sensation] affo93:
I have 4EXT and i'm S-OFF. When i go in recovery i see this:

" your 4EXT theme got corrupted! It was unistalled to prevent damage.

4EXT smartflash is courrently set to update your boot partition on nest system start.

is this wanted or should it be removed?

remove smart flash?"

Could it help me?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Remove smartflash because you are S-OFF so you don't need it

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

Are you running the 3.33 firmware? If not then you need to flash it - goto Kohr-Ah's universal firmware thread in the dev section for it.

If no then its probably just a bad flash. Redownload the ROM then check MD5, if they match then flash, if not then try downloading again.

If MD5 is correct but it still doesnt work reflash the ROM but do a full wipe (wipe everything except sd card from the 4EXT wipe menu).

If that still doesn't work then just try a different ROM.
[HTC Sensation] affo93:
Ok i' ll try this solution!
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Please report back to tell if it worked or not. If it does work this thread will be helpful to someone who finds it on a Google search 3 months from now.

If you don't tell what the outcome was, it will be useless to someone who finds it on a search.

Hope it all works out! Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] affo93:
First of all... Thank you everybody!

I have tried all solution but nothing seemed to work.... finally I have tried to flash the 4EXT from fastboot and , after reflasing ROM, i have seen my sensation switcing on without problem!

PROBLEM SOLVED!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carare_petru:
Hello! I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII (Gt-i9300). I had no problems with it, until i installed Android 4.1.1. Now, i have some problems. These are:

1) The weather widget doesn't find my location (even when connected to the internet and with GPS turned on);

2) Sometimes my phone book shows me all the contacts from the phone (in this order: SIM, Phone, Google) and i can't change it from the settings ("contacts to display" or "customize..."). I can change it ONLY if i RESET the device.

Can someone help me solve these problems? Thank you!

Factory reset

Reflash firmware .

Wait for JB to be released for your phone .

I purchased this app and would like to use it as my main player, but it's sitting on the back burner because it doesn't fade out when I receive GPS directions or switching to another music app like DigitallyImported. I tried going through the settings and searching online, but no luck.

Please help
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DarkredD14:
Well depends on what Google Maps or Navigation app you are using. I am going to give you advice based on the Google default Map and Navigation apps. So under PowerAmp you hit the settings menu and go to Audio, Audio Focus, and then make sure that you have the Short Audio Focus Change and Permanent Audio Focus Change checked. I have not had an issue with audio fading out for directions when using these settings and the Google Map and Navigation apps. The only app that has caused me issues with PowerAmp not stopping audio is the iHeartRadio app which, for some reason does not pause PowerAmp and, instead plays both audio streams ontop of each other until I manually pause one.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eclone:
Thank you! Looks like my issue is that I'm still running v1.xx so audiofocus was not available in the menu. I'll have to update
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gunnyman:

Do you have an aux/headphone socket on your car stereo? If so, all you need is something like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/3-5mm-Stereo-Plug-Mtrs-Gold/dp/B0007OC94E/ref=tag_stp_s2_edpp_url or similar, then you just connect one end to the headphone socket on your phone and the other to your stereo.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skratch1702:
Yes it does work this way but I would like to use it through the usb for charging while listening to my music. Is this problem because the S3 does not have a mass storage when connected via usb? If so mu only option is using 2 cords to listen to music while charging. Damb that sucks.

As yogosun says, depends on your car sound system.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rmikulus:
Hey, just in case anyone else shelled out the money for SE's new Android release, Chaos Rings and couldn't play due to being rooted...

All you need to do to be able to play is rename your SuperSU.apk/superuser.apk in the /system/app folder (I just added, ".bak" to the filename) and the force close will end. Of course, you will probably want to rename the apk back to normal once finished ;)

EDIT:

Cooldoud has a script on post #5 which, with Script Manager, should offer a widgetable solution to quickly renaming the superuser/supersu apk :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Sounds like a job for a bash script and Anycut. Would hate to have to do that manually all of the time...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rmikulus:
OOH how difficult is it to do? Would be nice to automate :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Renaming is easy - busybox mv <source> <dest>

It's calling the app that I'm not certain about.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cooldoud:
Yep found that out too... Really can't figure out why they went through the hassle of implementing such a lame system... Anyway, I wrote the below script for my gnote, it will toggle supersu so you can use the same widget to enable and disable supers.

After that install script manager, and set the script to be executed as root. You can then just create a widget to easily access the script :)

mount -o remount,rw /system

if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "Failed to remount /system as rw"
exit
fi

if [ -f "/system/app/Superuser.apk" ]; then
echo "Disabling Superuser App..."
mv /system/app/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.bak
mount -o remount,ro /system
echo "All Done"
else
echo "Enabling Superuser App..."
mv /system/app/Superuser.bak /system/app/Superuser.apk
mount -o remount,ro /system
echo "All Done"
fi
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Metalshadowx2:
I tried making it into a .sh and running it on script manager but it didnt work. kept saying line errors.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cooldoud:
You must make sure you convert your newline characters to Unix format. Wondows-style newline will cause the error you're getting (well if we're talking about the same error :))

You can use notepad++ or Google dos2unix for a command line tool.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Shouldn't this be in the apps section?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cooldoud:
Probably yes, might also want to take it out of the Epic 4G section and move it to general Android as this is going to affect all devices
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
That's what I was just thinking...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rmikulus:
Anyway, big ups to cooldaud, your script works great for me! Had to change "Superuser" to "SuperSU" but everything is great! SMWidget ftw as well :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Metalshadowx2:
ok i did and now i get this error
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cooldoud:
Looks like you're not using the busybox binaries. Maybe try replacing "mount" by "busybox mount"? Problem is I don't know what shell you'd be using so that might still not be working. Are you using the international Note? What ROM?

Also double check whether you're using SuperSU.apk or Superuser.apk as your root configuration tool.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niko_droid:
I have no idea how all these scripts work, so I just tried to change the name of my superuser.apk, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do that. My phone insists that I have insufficient privileges to rename it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KMyers:
It seems that they finally added "*This game cannot be played on rooted devices." to the app description, it was not there yesterday
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niko_droid:
Well, I went and researched scripts. Got this script to work. (Had to add "busybox" before "mount")

Checked that the app does get renamed to .bak, and yet I still get a force close when i press start. I guess I'll just have wait for SE's patch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cooldoud:
It's important to check that the application is not appearing in your app drawer anymore (if your launcher can detect the app, so can SE... :) ) . Go there and check, if the app is still appearing it means it is still accessible (not sure whether you then need a reboot for it to disappear or something?), if it's not there... it means SE is also checking some other stuff to determine whether you're rooted, but I have no idea what that would be.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niko_droid:
Ah yes, that's it. It still shows in my app drawer. Reboot didn't help. Trying searching the issue, came up with nothing. I guess I'm not meant to play this game just yet lol. Thank for trying to help!

[HTC One X] GFex:
I'm about to get 3G plan for my phone, and curious about a few things, thanks in advance for anyone who can answer them:

1) Is there any problems with connecting to 3g, just like there is in wifi sometimes?

2) Outside, would you rather using 3G than searching a wifi network? (because of speed, etc)

3) How fast is it (in average, for an average phone company)

Thanks again!
[HTC One X] BenPope:
I have no problem with 3g or wifi.

Wifi is sometimes quicker, sometimes free or cheaper than data, and uses less power.

No such thing as average, it varies wildly based on carrier, location in the country, maybe time of day, signal strength and many other things.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
3G is fine but it's not down to the phone it's down to your carrier.

As mentioned above, time, congestion, signal strength all play a part in how good a connection is.

Radio keeps getting better for me on each new release so not an issue, just find a radio that works well and stick with it.
[HTC One X] glukosio:
i'm using 3g instead of wifi because i have hardware fault and i didn't fix it yet. 3g works perfectly!

i reached 7mb/s with 3g (vodafone italy)

it doesn't drain much battery so you can just keep it on everytime

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jtl_777:
Hey XDA! I recently perm-rooted my SGS3 T-mobile versionT999 using the QCOM Toolkit and Odin and I flashed custom CMW recovery 6.(whatever) and did backups of all my stuff like data, system, EFS partition and more. It also renamed my recovery restore files. I read a few things regarding the OTA update of JB coming out soon and heard that if it is updated it could actually turn s-off back on and mess up your root and mess up a bunch of other things that I've done.

First off I would like to ask for some clarification on this subject as to what exactly will happen if the OTA updates to JB and if it will automatically be prevented or if I have to do something to keep my phone from automatically upgrading to JB on its own. Also if it turns out that I cannot do the OTA JB update should I just flash a custom JB rom or possibly flash a stock release of the JB rom?

Secondly I wanted to ask about the flash counter. Currently I have not flashed anything but CWM (twice cause I tried to flash touch but it failed) I have not flashed any roms or kernels or radios yet. Has my flash counter already been tripped? What exactly will trip the counter? I also read something about resetting the trip meter and flashing everything back to stock including unrooting. Can someone post a link to a guide(s) that have steps for that? (Trust me I've been looking on XDA for a few hours trying to answer all these questions myself but I cant find some of them and I figured asking and having them answered all in one place would be much easier and helpful to me and others as well). In the future I may look into flashing another kernel so I can overclock and also some other roms. Another question arises though: What exactly is and insecure kernel ( I believe thats what they're called) and also what is an insecure boot img? Sorry I have so many questions but theres a lot of information to take in when a new phone receives root and gets a bunch of new possibilities!

One final question until new ones arise. What exactly are these new builds I keep reading about? Ive seen "T999UVALEM", "uvalh2", "uvalh3" , "UVLI2,3 & 4", "UVDLI3", "UVDLH3", "UVALG1", and "ULVH2" and I assume there are many more haha.

What exactly even are these??? Its just too much to keep up with. Thanks to anyone who can clear up the confusion

Well I believe that about sums up my questions so if you can help me out I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks guys!
