SignalCheck 4.06 is the latest version

SignalCheck development has been ongoing, despite my lack of posts in this thread. The latest version is now 4.06; it is very stable and works well across all GSM and CDMA networks. There are numerous bugfixes and some new features, including displaying the CDMA 1X carrier name, even while roaming. Full changelog is available here: http://www.bluelinepc.com/signalcheck/change-log

SignalCheck Lite and Pro are both available on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blueline.signalchecklite

thanks sir....
[Android Apps and Games] samsung_karl:
Thanks

Thanks Mike, the app runs great on Galaxy Note now. The signal bars were always confusing and unreliable but only now do I realize just how much! :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Just wanted to give a quick update.. SignalCheck development has been ongoing, and the app is now up to version 4.14. Each release brings more features and improvements, so I encourage those of you who are using the app to keep up with updates. Those of you who have not seen the app yet, give SignalCheck Lite a shot.. it's free, and you can get it from Google Play in seconds:

[Android Apps and Games] flvinny521:
Your app was linked in another thread and I am happy to have found it. Going to install this ASAP. I hope that your hard work does not go unnoticed.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
FYI -- going on vacation until October 8! Any support requests or questions between now and then will be answered when I get back. Try updating to the latest version (up to 4.14 now!) and checking the online FAQ (http://www.bluelinepc.com/signalcheck/help/) if you have an issue.. that usually does the trick. :cool:

Hello Mike. I am on a Sprint HTC One and have tried separate 4.3 Sense 5.5 roms and most will not display the cell ID. Any idea how to get it back?
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Sense 5.5 changed some things that affected the app.. I have been working on that and a few other bugs, the next update will fix it. Should be early next week.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] jesmann:
Thanks Mike good to know. I've been trying multiple roms trying to find one that this worked on and 1x/3G, EPST, force roam and mobile hotspot. So if this is already being fixed then I can look for the other items.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
SignalCheck Lite and SignalCheck Pro have both been updated to version 4.171 on Google Play.. the Sense 5.5 fix is included, along with a few other bugfixes.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] Pumpino:
I installed the lite version to test. I can't see any way to add widgets. If these are only available in the pro version, are there any screenshots which show what the widgets look like? I'm happy to pay for the pro version so long as the widgets provide me with what I'm after. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to have one or more widgets which show both 3G and 4G signal strength. I'm not aware of any other apps that offer this (but would be happy to hear of any to compare).
[Android Apps and Games] yunn:
looks nice, does it could show the signal of all WiFi AP(hotspot)?
[Android Apps and Games] Pumpino:
I paid for the pro version only to find that when I'm connected to LTE, it doesn't report the 3G signal strength, which was the entire reason I purchased the app. Ripped off!
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
The widget is only available in the Pro version; I can post screenshots tomorrow. It will show whatever connections your device is capable of, so if it can connect to 3G and 4G at once, the widget will display both.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
It only shows the strength of the Wi-Fi signal you are connected to. The primary function of the app is to monitor cellular signals, not Wi-Fi; I recommend "Wifi Analyzer" from Google Play if you are looking for more info about nearby Wi-Fi signals. It's free.. I have no association with the developer, I just find it very useful for myself.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Whoa.. first of all, the Lite (free) version will show you whatever your device is capable of connecting to. I'm sorry if you somehow expected the Pro version do come up with more information, because I don't know where you would have drawn that expectation from.

What device and provider are you using? Most likely, your phone does not hold a 3G and 4G connection at the same time. That has nothing to do with the app, it's a limitation of your phone or mobile network. The app shows all current connections.

Please don't make outrageous claims like "Ripped off!" unless you can direct me where I ever claimed the Pro version would show more connections than the Lite version did.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] Pumpino:
Nexus 5 with Telstra. I tried another app, Advanced Signal Status that doesn't include a widget, and it listed 3G and 4G signal strength, so I doubt it's the phone.

My comment about being ripped off was tongue in cheek, although I'm slightly disappointed that the widget won't display both, as I'd paid for another app, Signal Notification, which serves that purpose.

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

Edit: Actually, I'm mistaken. Advanced Signal Status won't display 3G info when connected to 4G, so maybe it is the handset. Sorry about that. Does your handset display both if you're connected to 4G?
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
I can't speak with 100% certainty because I don't know anything about Telstra's network, but I do know that most non-CDMA devices are not capable of maintaining more than one transmission path at a time. If other apps claim to show 3G and LTE signals simultaneously, I would be at least a little skeptical until confirming it was accurate.

I have the Nexus 5 myself, and I know it is not capable of more than one connection at a time on any of the U.S. wireless providers.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Aha. Again, it depends on the device and network; both need the technical capability to connect to 3G and LTE at the same time. It is not common. Some Sprint and Verizon phones released over the past couple of years are able to do this using a technology called SVLTE, because the voice connections were handled by the 3G connection. Newer Sprint phones (like the N5 and G2) no longer have this capability.

Other providers do not support similar functionality, as the equipment and power needed to maintain two active radio connections is not worth it. Why would you want your device to use valuable resources to hold onto a 3G connection if you were on LTE?

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] Pumpino:
I assumed it was hanging on to 3G anyway, for making and receiving calls, but it obviously switches over when required, rather than maintaining a connection. As you say, it would drain the battery running two radios, so it's probably not a bad thing.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Both SignalCheck Lite and Pro have been updated to version 4.21 on Google Play. Many improvements and some new features are included. Full changelog is at http://bluelinepc.com/signalcheck/change-log/

Thanks for everyone's support throughout 2013.. Happy New Year!

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
I'm terrible about remembering to post updates here, but SignalCheck development continues to roll on.. it's currently at version 4.243, with many new features in the last few updates, including site logging and Sprint LTE band identification (for most phones).

[MENTION=1986757]mikejeep[/MENTION]:

Is there a way to make a donation for the pro key instead of purchasing it from Play? I've never set up a payment method with Play (almost 4 years without that now!) and have no plans to do so soon. I find your app interesting, and suspect it could help with development testing getting 4G working on 'obsolete' devices custom ROMs like my HTC 3vo (virgin evo 3d 4g.) Knowing what physical locations correspond to decent signal strength would help a lot since I don't even get 4G signal at all over much of my geographic range, and the pro version obviously offers a lot more info to the user than the lite version.

I also wanted to mention that some other tech forum where I originally found reference to this thread and app (I forget what forum, but it wasn't very noob-friendly) had critical information I needed about Virgin Mobile USA's current incarnation of MCC/MNC codes for getting MMS working on my older Optimus V. They've changed their MCC/MNC at least twice now since the phone's original software was released. Thanks for all your open information.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Hi there.. unfortunately, Google does not have any mechanism to allow for me to grant anyone a license for the app manually. It's basically my only complaint with Google Play; I had hoped to offer beta testers and other "friends of the app" free copies. There is no way for the app to appear in your Play account without purchasing it through Google; there isn't even anything in place so that I could issue a promo code or something similar. I wish there was, but I suspect it may have to do with Google wanting to make sure they collect their 30% commission on every transaction.

Your only option might be to purchase a Google Play gift card (see https://play.google.com/about/giftcards/) and then use it to purchase SignalCheck or whatever else you may wish. They are available in denominations as low as $10. You could do the same with a prepaid Visa or MasterCard debit card, but there are usually fees to purchase those.

I wish I could offer you a better option, but that's how it stands for now. I'm keeping distribution of the app solely on Google Play because it keeps things simplified on my end and provides me with at least a minimal amount of protection from software piracy. Sorry!

EDIT: I just learned that you can also add PayPal accounts to Google Play now as well. I know you stated you did not want to add a payment method to GP, but I know that was a feature others were waiting for.

[Android Apps and Games] zige:
So can this show all connections at same time or olny that one where to i'mconnected. I mean i'm connected to LTE and this app shows only LTE strenght but on screenshots at Play-store seems to be showing all connections types.. I have Galaxy S5 (G900F) and Omega V3.1 custom rom.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
It shows all of your current connections.. exactly what those connections are depends on your device and provider. The screenshots are mostly from an HTC EVO LTE on Sprint in the US.. that configuration maintains simultaneous 1X and data (EV-DO/eHRPD or LTE) connections.

I see your profile indicates you are in Finland, so I'm guessing your S5 is with a GSM-based provider. That setup would only connect to one data path at a time, so you only see one set of connection information.

On a semi-related note, I am working on adding GSM and LTE neighbor cell information display in a future version. This will allow you to see information for nearby sites that you are not connected to at that moment. This feature is still in development and I can't say for certain when it will be available, but I'm working on it.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] bigsupersquid:
The only way I've seen apps go pro without purchase thru big G, is where the app contains all functionality but requires an unlock code to release access to the paid features.

I just noticed, no WiMAX 4g readout? My archaic 4g isn't LTE

I'll test that in a few minutes, I'm about to enter an in service area.

Sprint is supposed to be completely doing WiMAX anyway in the near future anyway from what I've read.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
Yes, I have seen the same thing.. but in the case of SignalCheck, the Pro and Lite versions are two completely independent apps. You're not buying an unlock code--you're buying a separate app.

SignalCheck does not support WiMAX; it is the only technology not available within the app. There are no standard Android methods to gather WiMAX information, so I would have to develop custom routines from scratch for each individual device. I hardly have enough time to work on the app as it is, so it just doesn't make sense for me to work on that when A) I don't have any WiMAX test devices, B) I don't know if I could get it to work, and C) WiMAX is likely to be on its last legs. Sprint has promised it will remain until at least 2015 but has not committed beyond that, plus there hasn't been a new WiMAX device in a couple of years. LTE has become the de facto "4G" standard across the board, so it is wise of Sprint to invest in that direction instead.

-Mike
[Android Apps and Games] bigsupersquid:
Not just are there no standard methods to get at it, apparently no support at all past 4.2 or so.

Thanks for your info and feedback. I thought I'd edited my post to read 'doing away with' like I intended instead of just "doing"... ah well.
[Android Apps and Games] mikejeep:
SignalCheck is not currently compatible with Android L.

Users report the Android L preview OS will reboot upon trying to access SignalCheck. The problem has not been identified yet and it will probably be at least a few days before an update will be available. Stay tuned for update in this thread or on Twitter at http://twitter.com/bluelinepc

This only affects Android L; other versions of Android up to and including 4.4.4 still work fine.

So,

what should I buy to have all share working with both my LED TV in the bedroom (a normal 26" LED tv with no USB port and only HDMI inputs) and with my Marantz receiver (where i have HDMI input)?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da.trute:
just the allshare cast dongle, your phone connects to it by wifiDirect and the dongle connects to you monitor HDMI port providing Audio and Video. Dont know where your receiver is going to fit though, you may have to use the analog outputs on your tv and send them into the Marantz phono ports. Unless your TV has a spdif, you might find that your tv had a digital audio bypass which sends audio coming in via the HDMI port out of the SPDIF/DIGI port and so then on into your receiver that way.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yammy6200:
Maybe if it' a current top of the line receiver with multiple hdmi inputs, you would connect the tab to the receiver then receiver to monitor.

This way you can attach multiple hdmi sources e.g. bluray to the receiver and use the receiver to select which source you want to output.

Does that make sense?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da.trute:
I was thinking that might work but i've never tried a HDMI passthrough on a device like that, i've always gone straight into the TV. Worth a try.

I have the original Note and one of my colleagues uses the Note 2, to be honest apart from NFC there's not a whole lot of difference when your not playing 3D games and such that you mentioned, and if you flash the latest leaked 4.1.2 firmware, you get all the features like the Nature UX, Paper Artist, Muliscreen etc.. that the Note 2 uses, so i personally don't think you will notice much of a difference if any at all

Okay so I found this Samsung Galaxy S2x on the ground. However it had a pattern lock screen so there was no way I could have gone into the phone to get info on how to return the phone to the owner. They went and disabled their sim card, so now I am left with a perfectly good GS2! BUT it's locked. How do I bypass the lock on the phone? I have looked at several methods, however they include knowing the google account info which I obviously don't know... I thought about rooting the phone, but usb debugging is not on, so I can't put superuser on the phone's internal memory. Is this a problem? Otherwise, is there a way to factory reset the phone completely?

HELP! I would love to put this awesome phone to use!
