[HTC One X] Andy:
I have a Media Link HD and it works flawlessly, no lag at all. 3 finger swipe up and it starts, 3 finger swipe down and it stops.

Specifically, the Media Link HD will work in both ways you mention. If there is no WiFi router available to connect through your One X will create an Ad-Hoc connection and stream to it that way. I've found that the JB leaks do not yet support the Media Link HD as upon connection, it notifies that there is a firmware update. Then when it tries to download this update it fails.
[HTC One X] angusc:
Thanx and so how does the media link connect to the router? Is it automatic or do you have to first configure it from a pc or directly from the One-X?

For my example if I'm in a hotel which has WiFi but via a web page interface to log in how would that work or in this case would the direct link between One-X and media link be the way to go?

Sent witH desire from One X
[HTC One X] familyhousing:
It seems to set up an automatic ad hoc connection first, then the phone sends the infrastructure connection details to the media link through the ad hoc network. Both devices then drop the ad hoc network and connect to the infrastructure. So it is transparent. However I doubt it would work with a router webpage login.

If you are in a hotel with a webpage login then the media link would likely not gain internet access. However, it doesn't need that, so long as it can talk to the phone through the network. Saying that, if I were to configure a hotel access point, I would certainly set it up to block wireless inter-client communication at the router (to stop users hacking each others' computers). So in short it could work but most likely will be blocked.

Note that if the phone can't connect through infrastructure, it will automatically connect through an ad hoc connection. During this time the phone pretends to be connected to the infrastructure, so you may not even notice except that Internet access is lost.

Is there any way to roam on sprint with the play? Verizon (3g) and sprint (3g) are both cdma and i know you can roam on verizon with the sprint E4GT. It would be so nice to use my play. I miss it since the switch to sprint.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solar.Plexus:
Maybe if you flash a new PRL in a software such as CDMA Workshop. I'm not really sure though.

I haven't used CDMA Workshop in a long time, but last time I messed with a phone, I needed the 16 character code and the 6 digit MSL to get access to most things.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chery2k:
Even though the R800x is a VERIZON you cant have it run on Sprint. Sprint doesn't allow phones from the outside. Your best bet is to flash pageplus cellualr or criket they both use verizon towers and you'd be good to go. Dont go to metropcs they've been bought by T-mobile. Plus T-mobile is converting metropcs to GSM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIVANH:
hello guys i do have a Nexus S T9020

i did flash a rom and i did a backup

nothing show up and power button dont do anything

now i try to go into fastboot to get at recovery and i CANT select anything the power button and volume dont make actions

what i can do please help

sample image
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I heard some people have broken power button where the power button is always in the "enabled" state, and that will cause volume buttons to not work. I wonder if you have the same issue though, if thats the case you will have to either replace the power button or send it to Samsung.

I don't have the Nexus S right now, but have to tried the command: adb reboot recovery. Also I thought you can boot directly into recovery by power + volume up.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
If your power button is broken you are stuck there on that screen.

Does the phone boot up into the os? If so reboot into recovery from the os. If you flashed a ROM I assume its rooted. Can use any app that allows booting into recovery ( quickboot goomanger ROM manager ROM toolbox etc) or in terminal type such and hit enter. Then type reboot recovery and hit enter.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIVANH:
the problem is the i did a flash a rom and now the rom dont boot up or anything and i did a back up but i cant use the buttons to make a selection to get into recovery over the fast boot as i show in the picture! :confused:

the only way i get into the fastboot is holding the volume up and connect the usb into the port and them get into the fast boot screen but no more from there
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
That's what I figured. At that point you are pretty much screwed,

You need to get the power button to work / unstick so you can fastboot in order to do anything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinlim:
Hi there. Have you figure a solution. I ran into the EXACT SAME ****ty situation and samsung says they have no fix no parts for it!

Fainting
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Samsung can fix it if you send it. The solution is to get your power button repaired. There's nothing else to really do.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinlim:
Thanks for the swift reply. I sent to samsung but they say they have no parts :(

I'm from Malaysia btw, and bought my Nexus S in the states.

Guess its goodbye :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
They don't have any power buttons assembly left? What the hell haha
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIVANH:
i ll take my phone to a shop close to where i live and if they fix it i ll let u guys know!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Unless they got the part, then it's a no. Every so said "solution" ends up failing, you're just pushing a bit the date. Only replacing it really works.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIVANH:
i have temp fix

this is what i did may be you can fix it like this

i take off the battery out,

place back

Hold down volume and power

now connect the usb cable from the pc

keep holding the buttons we dont need to go into bootloader, if you can see the lower lights on you okay

now check the usb icon in your computer and if your computer recognize you are cool

Now before i have this problem i did a back up of my rom and i install touch recovery

now you have to see your options and if you have the twr recovery even better since you can transfer files over your phone while in recovery mod

okay i did install this toolkit

Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.5.4

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1766475

and since my computer recognize the usb and my nexus phone

i did get into reboot recovery mode in the advanced utilities you can figure out the rest since i dont know much!

since i did a back up i just restored and i did flash another rom which let you wake up the phone by the volume key

so i transfer the rom files and flash then while on recovery mode try installing the goomanager to get into recovery since this means your power button dont work

this is the rom

CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ver. 14 Hybrid Mix ICS

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1425344

if you have luck flashing this rom

just go into CyberGR-MOD in the setting section and select lockscreen options and check volume wake

now to lock the phone just install any app from play store like Lock Screen Widget

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droidmania.lockscreenwidget

and remember if you battery dies, just connect it into charger or usb cord and the phone ll boot again

Hope this help some of you who have this problem

thanks and any question i ll check later!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dannysdisaster:
First I want to say this is my first post, long time reader, recently joined and Argo sucked. Go to bed Ben Alflec you're drunk... Lol

I recently just re-joined tmobile from being on a company phone for the last 3 years with sprint. Hated it. I re-joined purchasing the S Blaze 4G. I liked it at first then it's usability just went down the drain.

Anyway, I later switched to the GS III. Loving it BTW. This is where my concerns are laying. I needed to get my GS III unlocked. After a week of calls and yelling at the CSRs to get my IMEI# right I finally got the unlock code.

When I went to go unlock the GSIII I did the initial check to see if it's locked dialing the right code to bring up the status Window. When the Window came up it was blank on all fields. When I dialed the code to enter my unlock code it did its thing and said "unlock successful" Afterwards I went and to see if the blank fields possibly populated a "off" so I know it's unlocked. But entering the code to bring up the Window... There was nothing... I don't have a friend with a different carrier other than tmobile to try it so I don't know what I can do to make sure it is.

Also, now that my tmobile Samsung Galaxy S III is unlocked what can I do with it? I was hoping to use Google Wallet (where I can) when I travel but that's out of the question and ISIS... Yuck... YUCK!

I'm fairly new to android also, so anything you can add to help me out would be great. Also, I'm open to rooting/experimenting (not "hey, take a deep breath let's experiment")

Thank you for everything guys and gals...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Zardos66:
Unlocking it will allow you to use other GSM carriers sim cards. Unless they use the same data frequency as T-Mobile, you will only have access to edge data speeds.

That's about it as far as I know. Using google wallet will require rooting and whatnot.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] spodie:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
The T959W Wind version of the phone came stock with a LB6 modem so I dumped it and made a flashable package for GB and ICS to flash from recoveries for anyone wanting to try them for better reception, etc. I don't have a data plan, so let me know how they work for that, for MMS, etc.

Any problems, just flash back another modem from the MODEM THREAD It's only a modem, it shouldn't brick you, and if it does, you're using it wrong and I blame someone else.

LB6 CM9/AOKP FLASHABLE FROM TWRP OR CWM

LB6 CM7/GB FLASHABLE FROM CWM
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
As usual make a nandroid before flashing so its easy to revert.

Ive been using this since earlier today and I havent had any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
You can also make an odin tarball like this:

tar -H ustar -c modem.bin > nameyourtarballwhatyoulike.tar
md5sum -t nameyourtarballwhatyoulike.tar >> nameyourtarballwhatyoulike.tar
mv nameyourtarballwhatyoulike.tar nameyourtarballwhatyoulike.tar.md5

You can even make it into a simple script like this:

Working nicely on MIUI.

does it support long SMS ? (too lazy & cheap to check right now...)

I have pretty much everything. Heimdall fails flashing the modem, and I believe it fails flashing the bootloaders as well, and I assume Odin probably would fail both as well. So far though, all the bricks I've fixed have been a pit/param file issue.I don't know if odin or heimdall will actually write the bootloader, I will have to test more.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
this is very off topic, but I need the t959w param, or is it the same as t959v with different image offsets
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
I will try your param tomorrow. Right now want to see how much battery life does. Today was great, down like 15% after 14 hours, Didnt't do much on tit today execpt wifi on even during sleep all the time syncing gmail and some wifi calling using dell voice. It's at 100% right now, gave it a quick charge and we'll see how it is in the morning for sleep time overnight and see what my drain in. I always leave wifi on though.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Just from casual observation, it appears that my phone's battery gets drained the most when I have wifi enabled. Maybe the way that this modem handles wifi is better but I'll test it out soon just to see how it goes for me.

EDIT:

PS, running AOKP latest build with KG4 modem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
Hi FB

This modem barely loses battery percentage left with WiFi on.

disclaimer - I have been using it with Pimp My ROM mod.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
Well charged my phone, left it on all night in standby with wifi connected for gmail sync and dell voice that I use for incoming calls and 8hrs, down 10%. At that rate it should get 80hours standby with wifi. Doubt I can go that long without using it though. lol. Be interesting to see if more people try this and notice better battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Keep your eyes open if you send MMS on T-Mobile US. I haven't confirmed one way or the other, but I had a couple not go out yesterday (and they did go out on KG4 this morning). Regrettably, I didn't grab logcat -b radio at the time as I just assumed they had been sent.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Look here to get specific size info for modem padding.

I just used dd to append the difference between the current size and 14680064 bytes from /dev/zero to the modem.bin.

The size can be a little over, but too much over and it will be too big for the mtd radio partition, then it will not flash properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
I believe he is referring to the letter size of the links.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Nope, I think I read that right.

I will get a locat as soon as I can, but I noticed that after the first day, my phone only goes into 4g when it first boots, then it goes back to 3g,even when using data. I have switched back to one of FB's padded modems and got 4g back, so I know it is not the service. I re flashed and fixed permissions, as well. Currently using the LB6 modem for cm9 as I type this on my phone... Still showing 3g.

I am running Ravers awesome audiophile rom and jeffs equally awesome here kernel, 0.8.1.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] codealarms:
He's saying that when you got the phone would determine what is original.

For example mine was upgraded in the store to gb so I never saw any of the modems prior to kj6. Kg4 performed admirably for me after testing it for a few days. And now this Wind modem is really hitting the spot.

Use each one. Determine what is the best for you, and stick with that modem. Original doesn't matter.

Try clearing cache, dalvik, and then fix permissions if you want to keep the modem and attempt to fix the lag.
