gsm rfcal

gsm normal

does that look rite for the uk..i've tried changing the gsm 1900 to 1800 by highlighting it and pressing action..dont know if i'm doing it right as i've only had it a day
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] cruisin-thru:
Yes, you choose using that method, I take it the result is still no signal? Does the original sim work? Also a hard reset is done by unscrewing your stylus, the top half will fit in the tiny hole on the right hand side of the base of xda, "xda facing up", push it in once, leave it for a few seconds, then push once again. This should do a complete factory reset.

After that replace it with your own card and then you should get a signal...

I believe so too, i even tested with and old version of cerux kernel with various clean install of AOSP Android 4.1.2 roms.

What kernel do you recommend for AOSP Android 4.1.2 ?

I even installed ASDK 1.0 All-Star 4.1.2 Final Fixer kernel posted here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2111871 but the problem here its that various CPU Governor such as BADASS doesnt behave like its sopposed to. BADASS governor behaves like ONDEMAND governor.

BADASS goes all up to the MAX frequency of the CPU and that its not supposed to be like that. It is supposed to go to 972000 mhz.

The PACman rom that i installed from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1974280 has BADASS governor but it also behaves like ONDEMAND,

The reason that I stick with Android 4.1.2 its because of the HDMI MHL,

With Android 4.2.2 HDMI MHL doest work yet.

By the way. My deep thanks and respects to all the dev out there. I flashed so many roms and kernels. it was very fun learning so many things in devices. I havent root it my Galaxy S3 yet. it been a couple of hours since o bought it.

Im not gonna give up on flashing stuff. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PJcastaldo:
Here's an idea. Have you thought about not flashing another kernel? The one that comes with CM is a custom built kernel specifically for cm.

Yes it doesn't have a long list of governors. But it produces decent battery life without compromising stability.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] davolc:
And by the way PJcastaldo, Here's an idea. Have you thought about not flashing a custom room? Why dont you stick with stock rom that came witth original provider? :silly:

Anyways, I only wanted to try and run Cerux Kernel for Android 4.1.2 for my personal reason, After seeing the problem, I thought someone might be having the same issue, so we could help each other, because that's why this forum is about. Cerux Kernel for 4.1.2 would be the best kernel for Android 4.1.2 but it seems it still have serious issues. ;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] delfin2003:
Be sure to turn off Location setting in google maps, as these settings if left turned on, are responsible for a major battery drain (50% battery drain in 8 hours if left turned on vs 2% of battery drain if turned off): Launch Google Maps, Settings, Location Settings and uncheck every checkbox that's there such as 'Report from this device', 'Enable locating sharing', 'Enable location history' etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nonstop14:
The location services was the big culprit, I turned all that off and drain has come down to a more reasonable 3-4%/hr.

Batteries are new. I've considered a wipe but I went through that with ICS and it didn't end up helping.

I'd like to get it down to 2-3%/hr drain at most. I turned off Google Now. Facebook and Beautiful Widgets are the two I see producing the most obvious wakelocks remaining in BBS so I'm going to try getting rid of those next.

Thanks for the tips everyone.

They called you a noob because this issue is a Gapps issue which has been present with CM10.1 since the beginning. Update Google search in the app store and your problem will go away.

Its tough finding the right think via search.

But your more likely to find an answer in the Q&A section in the future--that's where people go to ask qusstions--but if you're like me, you often pop into the section to pay your dues, to learn what's been going on lately, or to find answers to problems you didn't know you had. I call it education.

Don't be discouraged. Some people are more supporting than others.

I've used search in one form or another since Winmo6, and my success rate has been limited.

On the rare chance it won't go away, use a different keyboard...like the "Jelly Bean Keyboard" or others like it from the market. They're exact copies of the stock one, often with a few added features.

Actually, I took a later version than is available in bulk from the store as my baseline and the issue is still there too so I found I had to manually update as you said!

Totally agree.

Vanilla is quite small and has no built in alternatives and I have not found where that is or how to side load yet (but I'm still looking).

Just wondering if slax could be ran on rt considering it can be ran from a sdcard. On you phone or usb I was wondering if any dev has looked into it sorry if this is in the wrong section
[Windows RT General] SixSixSevenSeven:
Did you do any research before asking this?

Slax is an operating system. Specifically one compiled for x86. RT devices use ARM CPU's not x86. Who cares about SD cards etc when CPU architectures are in the way.

Slax being open source could be ported to arm but this is non trivial as there are drivers etc that are device specific. Even so, the bootloader on RT devices is locked down so you can't run anything that isn't signed with microsofts certificates. Funnily enough microsoft have only issued a certificate for windows RT and you can't get this certificate yourself.

Theoretically the hardware could be made to run SLAX.

In practise locked bootloader and a non trivial porting process make this impossible.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reikokuko:
I flashed	[ROM][CDMA/VZW][2.3.5]Stock+Root Vanilla by dsb9938 and after the root, my 3G speed had slowed down drastically. I'm not sure if its because of the root (I don't really see how) or if in the factory reset, some settings got lost and the speeds are slow. I have also heard of carriers throttling devices that they know have been altered, I don't know if that is the case here.

This tablet is sharing its Verizon 3G connection to provide internet for a restaurant in a rural area. I brought down the internet connection to the store to root the tablet, and as soon as it booted back up and I ran the tether again, the 3G speeds were extremely slow. I don't have any speed comparisons from before and after, but its either the factory reset or flashing that stock rooted rom that made a change for the worse in network speeds.

Any ideas anyone? Its rather critical to get the speeds back to normal on this device.

Thank you in advance, always.

Hello, n00b here! 8)

I brought a brand new XDA2 sim free from the link shop earlier today for £699 however when I returned home and tried my T-Mobile sim in it...it was locked. After I purchased the phone, the Link said all XDA phones are locked by 02 and that I could try and contacting their customer services to get it unlocked. I have proof of purchasing a 'sim free' XDA2 from the link (proper reciept for £699.00) - do you think that they will be able to provide me with an unlock code?

Here is the link to the Link website clearly showing the price and stating that the device is sim free :-

http://www.thelink.com/martlinprd/s...0&page=Product&sku=685686&category_oid=-18916

What do you think my chances are? Also if anyone has been sucessful can you advice which are the best numbers to call 02 on to get this done?

Also if I do get the device unlocked (hopefully) will I have any issue's using T-Mobile as a GPRS provider? ie Has anyone else got a unlocked XDA2 and using a non-02 GPRS service provider + MMS???

Lastly how long should I leave my XDA2 on charge for for the first time (as the battery comes completely dead).

Thanks in advance.

Sunny.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] tscargo:
Sim free != Sim Unlocked

Indeed, it is sim free, which means you do not get a sim with it, nor have you purchased a (new) contract. But this does NOT mean the phone does not contain a Sim lock. As you have figured out, it does have a Sim lock.

Anyway, if anyone is interested in purchasing a sim-locked XDA, I recommend purchasing a dutch T-Mobile MDA. They sell the phone (excluding contract) through several shops for around 550 euro (excl. VAT).

If you purchase it with a business subscription (minimum two subscriptions) you just pay 200 euro with a 1 year and 100 euro with a 2 year contract.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mdkia:
It depends on how fair is the shop ...for example on expansys.com they sell it as "sim-free" and in the support forum they answered to someone asking what did "sim-free" meant and they said "Unlocked" "free to any network" ...you can use it with any provider ...

ciao

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mattwilkinson:
Why pay 699?

I don't know why you paid 699 in the first place because expansys are selling it for £587.44 and the i-mate for £575.69 unlocked.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] sunny:
Hello Matt, basically I had insurance vouchers for the value of £599.00 to cover my damaged Nokia 9210 but I could only use them at selected stores only. The Link, Curry's, Dixon's and PC World etc did not have stock of any device that could do all the things that my 9210 (which is discontinued by the stores where I brought it from originally) could and the Sony Ericcson P900 (which is what I originally wanted to go for) is only available on the Orange network (I am on T-Mobile) so it was no good to me therefore I demanded they give me the XDA II at no extra cost as it was the only device they had in stock that done everything my 9210 used to regardless of extra cost..which they did ofcourse. 8) I am so glad that that the stores did not have any P900's in stock as this XDA II is the best thing since sliced bread! My other phone is a P800 and when I brought that I thought it was the absolute nuts however now when I hold one in each hand and compare build quality and spec the P800 just looks like a kids toy.

Also, update regarding the un-latching (un-locking) - I called O2 customer services up and they said that they were not willing to un-latch these phones on other service providers however I explained that my device was brought off-line and as a result of emailing them a picture of my reciept they emailed me a un-latch code at no extra cost. Result!! :D

Roll on the delivery of my screen protectors and 512mb memory card later on today. :D :D :D

Just need to find a few places where to d/l decent pocket pc software to try and fill up half of the extra memory I have. If anyone has any suggestions or can help please pm or email me (sunny@zetecturbo.com). I would be very grateful. :wink:

Thanks - Sunny.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] DannyBoy:
OMG - reading this has just reminded me ... I have a 9210 which I got 3 years ago. I kept the contract (and free upgrade insurance) running for my wifes phone. Maybe I can blag another XDAII for the upgrade :D

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] sunny:
Thanks Dannyboy. 8) Give it a shot.. you never know your luck!

I am just sooooo happy with my XDA II. I have had various PDA devices such as 9210 Communicator, 9210i, iPAQ's, Palms and P800's etc but have never been 100% satisfied with any of them apart from since purchasing my XDA II.

Just look at the comparison with my P800 - the XDA II looks like a proper device whilst the P800 sadly looks like it fell out of the kids pram. LOL

btw - MERRY XMAS XDA CREW! :D

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharghan:
Hi there! I need help please.

I got an S3 with a Vodafon-Italy firmware. Since I was experiencing a lot of freezing problems lately, I decided to flash the english firmware (I9300XXEMB5_I9300OXAEMB5_BTU) that everyone said fixed these problems. I followed the guide on here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671969) and everything went fine. Problem is, when I connected the phone with kies, it said i still had OMN (vodafone) csc. So i decided to hard reset the phone and flash it again, and now kies says I have KOR csc. Why the flash wont give me a BTU csc, which is the one for the firmware I flashed?

What bothers me is that if I ever need to use warranty, I'll have to flash back the original firmware (Vodafone-Italy with OMN csc), but I guess that even if i flash that I guess I'll still get a KOR csc.

So my question is: what did i do wrong? Why do I get KOR? And how do i fix it?

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me...

PS My cell isnt rooted, and I rather not root it, so using some tool to change the csc I guess won't work.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
BTU firmwares have KOR as the default CSC.

Also, questions are better off in the dedicated questions section.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharghan:
First of all thanks for your help... but are you really sure about this? I mean, kies says I won't be able to update my firmware... and I guess that happens because it shows as KOR... which would mean that every english user with a BTU firmware wouldn't be allowed to update with kies...it wouldnt make much sense tho... shouldnt they be marked as BTU? If what you say is true, tho, that means that If I flash back the original Vodafone-Italy fw i'll get back OMN... is that correct?

I'm sorry I posted here because it's the same forum where I read the flash guide... If any moderator wants to move this thread somewhere else, sorry for the trouble.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockler:
when a hard reset is done, the CSC resets to factory settings, in this case "KOR" (Korea).

Search on Sammobile for the Vodafone-Italy fw and flash via odin.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharghan:
Thanks for your help.

I'm kinda new to this world so sorry in advance if I ask a stupid question.

If I understood correctly... the BTU firmware by default uses KOR csc, so when I did the hard reset with that fw installed, the csc was set to KOR.

Once I flash the Vodafone-Italy fw back, and I do a hard reset with that one installed, the csc will be set to the csc that that fw uses by default, which should be OMN (I9300XXELLA_I9300VFGELL3_OMN).

Is that correct? Thanks again!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockler:
We all learn from each other :)

After flashing the fw you require, a reboot is enough

Make sure your phone is fully charged or at 80% of battery before flashing.
