[Motorola Droid Bionic] N2Nuttin13:
So if I remove Bionic bootstrap I will be able to do the update without the RSDLite method? I am not sure I want to go the RSDLite way, scares me that I might mess something up. I have done no other mods or hacks, but do have the bootstrap installed.

I guess my next question would be, if removing bionic bootstrap does not allow me to update, can I not just do a factory reset and reinstall all my apps?

Thanks for helping me out!

Hi,

Anyone tested on GT-i9305 , does it work with DC-HSPA+ network ?
[Galaxy S III General] Ausboy 2011:
Yep it does :)
[Galaxy S III General] Dovern:
Have you test it? What speed can you get? and what symbol it display when you hook on DC-HSPA+ network?
[Galaxy S III General] Ausboy 2011:
I know because it's on the spec sheet for i9305 Australia don't think it would show different symbol should still be h+
[Galaxy S III General] Dovern:
This is what i thought too. We dont have LTE in my country yet but DC-HSPA+ is available in many places. When i test with my USB modem (42Mbps supported) , i able to get download speed like 15Mbps where my i9305 only 5-6Mbps. I did the test at same location, same time.

I check the network monitor apps, it shown my phone connected to HSPA+ (21.6Mbps).. not DC.. but i m within strong DC coverage area.
[Galaxy S III General] baileyjr:
May seem like a silly question but does your mobile carrier support DC?

If its the same provider as the dongle then it obviously does but that's not clear from the post.
[Galaxy S III General] Dovern:
If my carrier does not support DC-HSPA+, i wouldn't create a new topic to discuss.

Yes, my mobile carrier support DC.
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
Well with my I9305 My highest speed on DC-HSPA+ is almost 12mbs and my network is **** and they are also upgrading the network in my area and they are the last network to have 4g they should have it early 2013. I already bought a telstra sim and I am going to activate it soon to test it as they have very good 4G coverage, My freind reached 40mb+ download with his I9305 ON 4G with telstra.

I think i explained all this in the other thread regarding apps showing certain things, Your app most probably doesnt show DC-HSPA+ because some countries call it different and depends where the app was created. With the app called (Radio Mon) when i am connected to DC it shows (HSPA) where as the I9300 shows (HSDPA) but both phones show the H+ symbol. When I did some research on HSPA vs HSDPA I got the hint that HSPA is the more potentially faster one Im sure i already said this in the last thread when you asked this question
[Galaxy S III General] Dovern:
I believe you should be using Vodafone? haha...

Anyway, 12Mbps on DC-HSPA+ is consider very good speed. WHen i use USB modem, i able to get speed like you or something it hit 15Mbps++, in the same location, same time, my i9305 only able to get 5 to 6Mbps. I did almost everything like, choose WCDMA only, restart the phone, lock into 2100 band only, but all not help. my speed more or less the same never exceed.

HDWidgets is procuding in my opinion an obscene amount of partial wakelocks according to BetterBatteryStats.

I have litterally turned everything off in HDWigets, yet it is still producing a lot of wakelocks.

Anyone having an issue similar to this? and if so found a solution?

Anyone have a suggestion on a different widget that doesnt produce wakelocks, to the same degree?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] texshade:
I have the following three phones:

Samsung Galaxy S 4G, model # SGH-T959V

LG G2X, model # LG-P999

Samsung Spica, model # GT-I5700

My wife and I have recently moved to Nicaragua to do volunteer teaching work. I purchased a SIM chip for the Movistar network. I can connect perfectly to the network with absolutely no problems with making or receiving calls or texts. The problem is when I try to receive data through their Mobile Network. I enter the correct APN and am able to connect to their data network, but only at incredibly slow speeds (avrg 30 kbps). I should be getting 1MB of speed at 3G speeds, but I cannot get that. At the top of my phone is a "G", when I should be getting a "E" or "H". I have the same problem with all three phones.

Here is what I have tried so far.

1) Put my SIM chip in another person's phone. Their phone was able to reach 3G speeds. So the problem is with my phones.

2) Confirmed the APN was entered correctly.

3) Tinkered around with every setting I could change.

4) Did a factory reset.

5) Put in a SIM chip from the other mobile network here called Claro and the phones worked great including the data. So the problem is with my phone and connection with Movistar.

These phones worked perfectly under T-Mobel in the USA, including data. All the phones are unlocked and rooted.

After doing a thorough search on the net my only possible conclusion is that I need to update/change the modem on the phones. I understand that changing your modem can be done by the flash method or ODIN. But where do I get the correct modem file for my phones???? If I install the wrong modem could it cause permanent damage to the phone??? How can I check to see what modem I have installed on the phone???

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem is greatly appreciated and answers to my questions about the modem would be great.

Note: I have to use the Moviestar network because in the areas of the country we will be working only the Movistar network provides a signal.

PLEASE HELP.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
LOL. Nice Short. How about leaving a really popular torrent seeding for a month?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Set me up ill sow my seeds.... ;)~
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Ok on the topic of torrents....

I've dl'd a few torrent clients and am learning how they work....question is....is there a particular one that works better?

I went to dl a movie and it showed that it would take 28weeks and 5days to complete,lmao.

I'm also finding that the sites with higher seeding dl faster,but what is concidered a high count,for the numbers I'm seeing aren't all that high.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Short

I use utorrent for both my PC and my phones client. As far as seeds and leaches go remember you can pull from both to get parts of the DL. A seed has the whole file while leachers have just pieces until they finish the DL at which time they become seeders. As long as their are more than 5 seeders(big generalization here) you should be fine. Remember that it's considered torrent etiquette to seed after you receive the DL. Always try to share to a ratio of at least 1. Also remember that torrents are packages with many pieces so you will see slow DL speeds until you get a least a few pieces to share. As soon as that happens your DL speeds will go up fast. I usually get at least 500kb/s down on a well seeded torrent.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
It's best if you pick torrents where there are more seeders than leechers. You'll get better speeds that way. On a lot of well seeded torrents you can have your download speeds start at your full connection speed.

Remember, seed:leech ratio is what will control download speed. Normally a torrent that has a few dozen seeders will net you the most speed since a lot of torrent clients have a concurrent connection limit (the number of connections you can have at once) of less than 100 (utorrent, transmission) and you won't gain any more speed from torrents with more than 100 seeders.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jigglynuts:
I typically use my phone to remote access my home PC and download torrents directly to my home PC. I usually get about 5 MB/s down (even though I have 30 MB plan). I can then just remotely send everything to my seed box and allow uploads to others for a minimum of 2 days.

Since I do not have unlimited data, this avoids me exceeding my data cap and I get better download speeds than using my phone.

I recently tried a modification on my ICS rooted tablet, that would let me hide my status bar. To do this, I would have to replace two system files (settings.apk and services.jar).

I'm hoping I can get my tablet out of a boot loop by using this.

If it isn't possible to find a rom for this tablet, maybe it would be possible to get the original settings.apk, and service.jar for my Hipstreet Titan.

[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:
This is a topic which I don't really like to talk about, but I now want to take the approach to get it outa my mind: The backlight of my soft-key search button does not fully shut down. That is, if I let the phone sit until the lights of the soft-keys (home, menu, back- and search button) shut down, I still see a dimmed light behind my search button. It annoys me.. I know I'm a picky girl.

Is that a hardware failure or do you guys have that, too? I'm convinced it's NOT caused by my current ROM (running DisarmedToaster). Can you recommend an app which will test my phone for hardware failures?

I bought my EVO 3D with blood money and would not really like unrooting and putting the phone into original warranty state to go beg the company I bought it from for a replacement. Please help a desperate lady! :(
[HTC EVO 3D] richyrocket:
Mine has done that since the day I bought it, although I bought mine used so I just dealt with it. It looks more like bleed from the backlight on the display but i'm not sure. It must be pretty common if we both have it.
[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:
Thank you so much for stating this, exactly what I was talking about! Kind of a small release to hear I didn't buy faulty hardware. Do we have other readers here who can confirm that this behavior is normal?

I'll head out to the phone store today to double check. Still, does an app exist to check for hardware failures?
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
Yes no faulty equipment, it is normal on every single Evo.

[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
Yeh, methinks it's standard in all our phones :( fixed mine when i was replacing my digitizer (put a bit of plastic behind the search key to stop the overspill)
[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:
Did you void your warranty through opening it? How about the buttons responsiveness afterwards? If you provide a detailed HowTo, you'll get another +1. :thumbup:
[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
Yeh, warranty gone after opening it.... though now that I think of it... there may be a way around that. Namely I replaced the entire digitizer so I needed to take it apart fully, however since all the connections and cables are at the top of the screen and the buttons are (obviously :D ) on the bottom you could lift the digitizer up from the bottom and fix it without messing with the screws in the back (the one that voids your warranty).

To actually do this you will need:

Heat gun(or decent hair drier) anything with 500w or above should be plenty

Some good double sided adhesive tape (probably won't be able to reuse the original one)

A case opener tool (to lift the digitizer)

A piece of plastic or anything else opaque and nonconductive

Procedure:

heat up all the edges of the digitizer evenly (don't cook them, just heat them up :D)

Using a case opener tool get in between the digitizer and the aluminium chassis starting at the bottom and work your way up to the top

When the bottom and sides are free gently lift the digitizer with the top as a hinge point heating it up if necessary.

Ta da! You can see the inner workings of the buttons

Notice that the buttons have pieces of transparent plastic leading light from the LEDs to the actual surface the light overspill happens around the search button so I put a tiny piece of plastic around it (there are probably more elegant ways around this... but I'm not that elegant to begin with so this worked just fine.

Cut out thin strips of tape and put them on the edges of the digitizer where the old adhesive was (or reuse the old adhesive if you can)

Close up the phone and there you have it... your warranty should still be valid... tho if any1 opens the phone up they will probably notice the extra piece of plastic (or whatever you used)

On a similar note my gf's digitizer is busted so I will be replacing it some time this or next week and could probably demonstrate this with photos before I actually replace the darn thing (assuming I can get ahold of a decent camera)
[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:
That would actually be the coolest contribution I've seen in a ling time! Are you really willing to do that for our EVO community? If you did, you'd be our king. :cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
Don't worry, it's on every EVO 3D. From GSM to CDMA.

The light bleed is from the screen back light. It does give the phone a cheap feel sometimes, but it's a common problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
It's not as prevalent on cm10 with inverted gapps

(Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh! :D)
[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:

[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
Inverted gapps has black backgrounds so the screen bleeding is reduced

(Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh! :D)

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

I can drastically reduce screen brightness which helps, there's still some bleeding

[HTC EVO 3D] HermanV0929:
I don't believe it can be done without opening the back. If I'm not mistaken, that's where the connector is and it can't be accessed from the front. I could be wrong though
[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
I'm sure it can be done... because you have to do pretty much exactly that when replacing the LCD or digitizer
[HTC EVO 3D] HermanV0929:
Maybe by lifting the lcd it's possible to access the digitizer connector. That would make it so mucher easier. I may just have to try it that way. Can't hurt gotta replace it anyways
[HTC EVO 3D] SecUpwN:
Once you've done that, please post a small tutorial with pictures here as a reference. I'm sure that others would like to polish their EVO too. Have a good week! :)
