[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
Tried with WellFTP Server and MyPhoneExplorer. Same speed and both free apps with no pro version available.

Onto the phone's internal storage

Seems to be about the same or slightly slower (ES File Explorer doesn't show me transfer speed or time elapsed)
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
How about running a speedtest over your wifi network (with nothing else using bandwidth, obviously)?
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
how do I do that? Doesn't speedtest only work for internet connections?
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
Well, yeah. What I meant was to do 2 speedtests: one on computer, one on phone. Then compare the results. If they're the same, then there's nothing wrong this side of your router. I suspect the results will be significantly different.
[General Questions and Answers] Victorian09:
I've had about 10mbs. It's ok.
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
What speed do you get if you connect your phone to the PC via USB and try writing files? I suspect it is simply down to the write-speed of your internal storage.
[General Questions and Answers] Victorian09:
Ofcourse. It's about 6-7 Mb/s. Because of SDCard write speed.
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
both report the same speed.
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
And what speed is that (approximately)?
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
That of my internet service: 6mbps downstream / 768kbps upstream.
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
So, to summarize, you're getting:

6Mbps from your phone to internet

6Mbps from your computer to internet

2.5Mbps from your PC to phone

all while using the same 802n, 2.4ghz router, right?
[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
Exactly.

I should try my Laptop-to-PC just to see the speed also, because I realized that when I said that the speed to the other pc was 10mb/s, I didn't remember it is actually a wired network, lol. But still, is 2mb/s what I am supposed to get with n-wifi on a 2.4ghz router?

Hi everyone ! I have a Xperia Arc LT15i and I found out using *#*#7378423#*#* that I cannot unlock bootloader (Bootloader unlock allowed: No). How I can unlock my bootloader because I want a ROM like CM9 or JJ's Hybrid and it`s must to have bootloader unlock. Please help me with unlocking the bootloader, or please help to find a ROM like CM9 without unlock my bootloader. I want to say that I am not very skilled :confused: Waiting for more tips.

download flashtool then Plug in > unlock bootloader

it will guide you to sony's web page, copy paste the code and let flashtool unlock it

If you have bootloader unlock allowed:no standing, then you can't unlock it with Sony service, because your IMEI number is then 15 symbols long, so no way for unlocking bl without paying for services like setool
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludz179:
Hi,

If you have bootloader unlock allowed:no , you can unlock it with Omnius :laugh:, but is not free, 15€/unlock :(.

I unlocked my LT15i with Omnius, I had "unlock allowed:no" before.

you guys got any links related to this Omnius and Setool things? or other alternatives for Xperias stating that unlocking bootloader is not allowed?.. I had thought that if they say so, it was just impossible to unlock...

No... you can do it for free like what i did... go to sony unlockbootloader web site and it will give you a step b step guide...

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dns.vlad:
I'm starting to get angry:mad: I said and ludz179 in answer above you I can not unlock the bootloader so because the Service Info says Bootloader unlock allowed: No
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f1kid:
was only giving info you say your phone says cannot unlock boot loader then from wat iv seen there is no way to unlock it.

but there is lots of roms out there that run well on none unlocked bootloaders and using new flashtool seems easy plus using DooMLoRD to root the phone .. I think the only way to do it would be to send it to sony service to unlock but knowing them you go no chance

just trying to help thats all
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandroidnz01:
Can't help enquiring.You mention that there are several roms that are available which does not need to have the bootloader unlock.Could you give me the links please.

I recently obtained a new pair of Skullcandy Fix In-Ear headphones, and when using them with my GS3, I can only hear from the left bud. I can hear from both perfectly when I apply a little bit of pressure in the right direction to the jack. The headphones work perfectly with every other source, but I have not tried them with another GSIII. My GSIII can output audio in perfect stereo to any other speaker/headphone.

Seriously, what's going on? Does anyone have this issue, or have an idea on how to fix it?

Hi all,

I am not new to custom roms sa you can see on my sig..;)

But I want to know one thing..

What it the best rom..

I had a look at CM9,ICS but lat looks like it has still bugs in it so i was thinking of CM7 but is that going back from the stock rom I have on it,is there a custom rom of the Gingerbread..??

thanks..
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] coliv_aja:
CM9 beta 2 is good for daily used. Not really major bugs. So all worked well.

For now. I'm using miui v4. I have used to 3 days , and im not get any bugs, except those duplicate files. But its manageable. This room seem worked well. The problem is just battery consumption. Its really drained fast. Especially while using wifi. I have to charge 2x a day.

I will try it more for at least 1 week, so i can decide wether go back to cm9 or keep this rom.

Go ahead just try a few rom. Then you can decide.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] spannernick:
Thanks..

So is miui v4 CM9 beta 2 then...?

Have you calibrated your battery..it might help..:)

Many users are frustrated by 4.0.3+ AOSP ROMs, as from Android ICS & JB AOSP ROMs there is no Facebook Contacts SYNC.

Well after much drooling and browsing I finally found a way to enable this.:victory:

As stated on website --> http://niranjanthilak.com/facebook-sync-for-android-ics-devices/

and on --> http://www.modaco.com/page/news/_/a...sync-in-ice-cream-sandwich-r140#commentsStart

So, go on at these websites and try youself.:good:

Here, I'm Attaching a modded "ContactsProvider.apk" file that i used, in my CM10 ROM (dated:20121014)

FYI :: First rename file "root//system/app/ContactsProvider.apk" to "ContactsProvider.bak", then delete or rename "root//data/data/com.android.provider.contacts/databases/contacts2.db". Now copy provided "ContactsProvider.apk" to "root//system/app" folder, change permission to 644 and restart the device wait some time for data to sync.

P.S. :; I'm not responsible for data loss, do this on your gut.:cool:

Thnkx:cowboy:

If one doesnt wanna share their info with third party apps like HaxSync or FBcontactsync.

There is a great app and info about how to make it by Recognized Developer Deadknight.

No go for me. How did you modify your apk file? When I baksmali'd mine, I didn't see a res/variables folder at all like was suggested in the original guide on how to do this. Tried adding it, but ended up with the same thing I get from your file - FC's and no contacts :(

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Ryuinferno:
You can't just use the modified apk...instead, using the guide and make the necessary changes...the modded apk was not for every ROM...:)

Ok...to add some details:

For ContactsProvider APK, the file

in question is res/values/arrays.xml

To gain access to this, you must decompile with apktool, not baksmali...:)
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] NegativeOne:
The file provided was for CM10, was it not? I'm running CM10 - the only difference is I'm actually on a Galaxy S3. I've tried with the guide but have met with similar ends.

Only difference is - when I tried manually I did not set my file permissions to 644.

Thanks guys. I'm going to try this. I've been trying to use the xdaAutoTool wrapper for apktool, and I'm not 100% sure I'm doing it right.

What do I need to do to make sure that it loads the correct framework-res.apk for resource dependencies? I did "install other" and pointed it to the file, but it says "No Framework installed".

If someone could point me to a guide for raw apktool that includes signing the apk (which I understand I must do) and loading a framework dependency, that would work too. Thanks in advance!:)

Sup guys and gals, My phone is being very glitchy as expected when flashing ROMS.

So, I'm running Liquidsmooth V2 RC3 which is a jelly bean ROM with the franco 282 kernel, 384mhz gpu.

My SMS would not send when I put the phone to sleep, I would have to wait for the message to send and deliver before I could put it to sleep. It also fails to receive SMS at times. This is a big issue and I am wondering if anyone has a solution..

I am also a Canadian resident and I am with Rogers.

Try flashing a different ROM. Custom ROMs are that, best thing you can do is ask the ROM's developer about it. :D

Right, I couldn't find this in a search. I'm not sure if I'm posing this in the right place, so feel free to yell at me! :)

After installing CM10 I have noticed that The permissions for both internal storage and external storage are always set to 'Read only', this may have been occurring before I used this ROM, but I'm not sure. I am unable to delete, rename or move files. This is VERY frustrating! On my PC I can temporarily change the Permissions of my micro SD card, but only when inserted without using the phone. When plugged into my phone it goes back to bring read only.

Please help!

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
I have a similar issue.

I can not delete or move anything from the internal card. It seems the card can not be set as write.

However, i think the issue is kernel related. I am running on the advanced stock kernel and I was going to flash the stock kernel when i had some time to check. I bet of you do that then the issue will be solved.

Please let me know whick kernel you are on now (I presume the kernel that comes with the cm10 download) and if this solves your problem.

It may also be the solution to the screenshot issue that does not let you take screenshots as it says the memeory s in use....

Very weird. I can delte the foursquare folder and some files in varius folders on my internal sd card, but whenever I try to delete any photos pr the camera folder in DCIM it just comes straight back....

and now those files I thought i had deleted are back....

Backing it up and formatting it next...but for some reason its saying it will take 23 hours to copy the files

EDIT

OK, I have backed up and formatted. Went into settings and deleted all content from internal sd card.

Then tried to forat it in recovery, but it failed. When i rebooted it said the internal sd card was in the wrong format so it gave me the option to format it, I did and now it seems to work. It at least allowed me to take a screenshot and save it.

I'm running 4.1 JB Polish, first I check that my problems come from the phone and not my sim card .. Just as my old BB 5520 I never had any problems, and I notice that when I encounter problems if I cut back on the 3g and its re works ..

So to start 3/4 problems are encountered with the Facebook application.

What happens? Worse than slow internet modem 56k, break connection without stop I have to refresh each time without success and again he told me that there is no connection when I'm on 3G ...

I refer to her: network-3g-unstable-SGS3-t19656.html

I have a can chippoter but nothing happens

Almost IMPOSSIBLE to access facebook via 3g, and my web pages I often update 5.6x before something

Just wondering if the international version will support AT&T's LTE network. I'm leaning towards no, but am wondering if there will ever be a way to root the phone to get it to work?

I'm getting sick of waiting for the att version and fear the no commitment price tag it might carry.

I've always bought international phones and gotten by with HSPA+ but that's hard to do when AT&T now has full LTE service here.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
No. Doesn't have the hardware. I got the international because I am not having a mid-November (projected) wait. I'll use the international for a while and if the ATT version doesn't suck completely, I'll sell and get a 32/64 branded one (assuming it's available).

LTE is nice, but I have used HSPA+ on every other phone (Netflix, Slingbox, tethering) without issue, so I'm not in a super hurry to get it. I'll see how the battery hit looks before signing my life away again.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattMJB0188:
Thanks. Just out of curiosity, how would you buy the Internationale version and then get the AT&T branded version in November? Unless you sell it?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
I'll sell it.
