[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzvikam:
Hi

Just installed the Ultimate HD3.0.2 Rom my arc (LT15i)[following http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38538332&postcount=710 instructions) and it works fine and fast.

I also followed	Collection some UHD 3.0.2 known problems n link solution / flashable.zip(CWM) post, to fix some problems.

There are few (not so major) problems with this rom:

1. The Led notification does not work although I install the fix.

2. The Xperia-Z luncher settings does not work when my language is set to Hebrew. It works well in English.

3. When disabling the on-screen buttons (since ARC have physical buttons), the wallpaper does not cover this screen area, So it left with different colors.

4. Settings (i.e. SystemUIPreferences.apk) is not activated on the status bar . I have a bypass by invoking it from the device settings menu) .

5. Few applications (like Fancy Widgets does not recognize the alarm clock. it need to be activated specifically

All this probles are not critical, so I will keep this rom.

Hi All,

Do I need to do anything special to use ActiveSync over a wireless connection ? The wireless connection is setup and working fine, I can ping from PPC to PC etc etc. I have configured the connection settings in ActiveSync to accept connections over ethernet. The network says available. I guess that I don't need to connect in ActiveSync on the PPC, just press Sync ?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob.

I am having exactly this problem. Have tried adding the PC's IP address as the wins server - that didn't work and am now wondering if an hosts file is required??? I can connect to the PC through file manager using the name or the IP address so it really doesn't seem to make sense.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] beeper:
I am now absolutely sure that it is a resolution problem. I tried it on my work network which has local DNS and it worked straight away. I guess that the answer will lie in an hosts file although it's been a few years since I've worked with hosts so I'll let yo know if I have any joy.

Thanks! It looks as if Microsoft give their devices default names that their own naming system refuses to recognise (Pocket_PC) - I guess that it is what we have come to expect of MS! I've renamed my device and will try again when I get home. Thanks again for the lead.

[Motorola Atrix 2] SMONDAL84:
Hello All,

I was trying to get the option of waking the phone using volume keys. I am on ICS (Asia Retail) on my MB865. Editing the Keylayout files did not work. It had worked for me before, but now they did not probably since my phone is locked by a password lock screen due to corporate policies. I tried to decompile android.policy.odex and change isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing. But after I compiled it back and put the changed odex back to system/framwork. But strangely I got a boot loop. I tried a battery pull and also cleared cache and Dalvik cache. But could not get it to boot. Finally I had to restore /system from a backup.

I have detailed my steps below. Can anyone please point out what I am doing wrong here.

1. Get /system/framwork out and put it in a folder

2. Download smali-1.4.2 and baksmali-1.4.2 utilities.

3. I extracted android.policy.odex by java -jar baksmali.jar -d framework -x android.policy.odex

4. I changed the file KeyguardViewMediator.smali (removed lines for 0x18 and 0x19 under the switch case of the method isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing(IZ)Z

5. Packed the odex file back by java -jar smali.jar -o android.policy.odex out

where "out" is the previously extracted folder

Then I replaced the android.policy.odex back to /system/framework

Please help! My power key is already showing some signs that it does not want to stay with me any more.

Thanks,

Sayantan

Re: Solved - Volume Rocker wake via android.policy.jar

Okay! I have been a total noob. I did not read enough about odexing and deodexing.. should have read more before I posted. Here's what I did (in short), thanks to Jordan Hotmann from http://www.jordanhotmann.com/2011/08/how-to-change-default-orientation-of.html

For detailed explanations, please visit the above website.

1. Downloaded smali and baksmali tools

2. Downloaded and installed dexopt-wrapper (just Google)

3. Extracted /system/framwork

4. Extracted android.policy.odex (used api level 15)

5. Modified the required files - KeyguardViewMediator.smali (removed lines for 0x18 and 0x19 under the switch case of the method isWakeKeyWhenKeyguardShowing(IZ)Z

6. Repacked the folder to classes.dex

7. Integrated classes.dex into android.policy and pushed the latter to /sdcard/

8. Created new odex file from android.policy.jar (dexopt-wrapper android.policy.jar new.odex BOOTCLASSPATH)

Got the BOOTCLASSPATH from init.rc which I pulled from the phone root directory

9. Copied the "signature" from the original .odex file to the newly created one (busybox dd if=/system/framework/android.policy.odex of=new.odex bs=1 count=20 skip=52 seek=52 conv=notrunc)

10. Replaced android.policy.odex

cd /system/framework/

busybox cp /sdcard/new.odex android.policy.odex

busybox chmod 644 android.policy.odex

(I already had my keylayout file modded. So not sure if they are actually required after the above mod)

Please take a nandroid backup before attempting this. I am not responsible for any damage being done to your phone as a result of this!

Thanks again to XDA forums and Devs here and Jordan Hotmann (from the link above)
[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
Can't say about ICS but in JB we use the lab menu *#*#6686#*#* to have the functionality of the volume key waking the phone.
[Motorola Atrix 2] SMONDAL84:
Right. I used the same when I was on the JB leak. It doesn't work on ICS. However, last time I was on ICS, changing the key layout files sufficed with the lock screen set to none. This time my phone has to have a password lock screen due to corporate policy and editing android.policy.jar seems to be the only way.

Regards,

Sayantan
[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
Ok, in that case I learned something new to use in ICS as per your tutorial below :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] anacondo:
Hi guys.

I stumbled upon this thread while researching info for modding framework-res.apk and android.policy.jar. I'm trying to make some changes to the power menu.

I'm pretty much a noob and so far I managed to get framework-res.apk to compile and install successfully, but android.policy.odex is giving me nightmares :D My rom is odexed, and no matter what I do I always end up stuck at boot.

So I tried to just baksmali and smali it again with no changes whatsoever, then dexopt-wrap from the phone exactly like the guide SMONDAL84 linked says, dd the old signature into the new odex file and finally move it to /system/framework.

Even that isn't working, so I wonder what am I doing wrong? :p
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
I've see a lot of people complaining about LTE speed after flashing the international roms. I dont have a stock One anymore untill we get a ruu but i do have a stock One X+. I compared LTE speeds with speedtest app on both phones with the same sim sitting in the exact same spot. The One X+ is bone stock rooted with the latest HTC RUU. The One is using trickdroid rom 5.1 with ATT icons. Speeds look identical to me. The ATT Rom the signal was 4-5 bars. The Custom rom was 3-4 bars

One X+

HTC One

Does anyone else have any side by side tests that show a different outcome? Or is it just the different signal strength on the status bar? ATT is known to have some wacky signal readings..shows higher than actually is..

Feel free to post your comparisons and discuss.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] illmatic416:
Where did you find the AT&T icons?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nugzo:
option during trickdroid rom install.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] aimetti:
check the DBM values ,

probably just ATT screwing w/ the signal bars.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sceptor:
This needs to be a flashable zip damn it. And as far as your test goes the issues people are having is the constant fluctuation in signal/icon due to the international rom. Even if it isnt draining power by constantly adjusting at the very least its annoying as hell.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] anit77:
I'm on TrickDroid 3.5. I haven't had a chance to update to 5.1 yet, but it's downloaded ;)

I'm not seeing a difference from a Vivid with a WildChild rom vs the One on TrickDroid. I don't have screenies but I did test it.

I just tested at my office on the One and got 20.1 down and 14.7 up. That is on par with what the Vivid was getting in the same location.

The radio my One came with is the same as the recent .12 Euro update.

If anyone is seeing slower speeds I would think it's an issue with the way they set it up during the flash, either something is a miss in the build.prop or apn. The only other issue I could see is if by some chance the handset they received wasn't already current when they got it and the update wasn't run before rooting & flashing a custom .12 rom.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] illmatic416:
There is a flashable zip of it..it's called "AT&T_data_icon_fix.zip". It's either in the Renovate or ARHD thread in the main One forum, I forgot which thread...but it was uploaded on Sunday night. I downloaded Trickdroid and didn't see the option to implement it during the Aroma run. I know it's there in the Renovate Aroma install. Every international ROM that I've run leaves the LTE signal stay at one bar...i'm pretty sure it's just a calibration that's needed to match the display signal to the actual signal.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] robamacaf:
I looked through both of those ROM forums to see if I could find that flash and can't find it anywhere. Does anyone have a link?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CiDhed:
I'm running trickdroid. Not sure if this is good for AT&T LTE in my area, just switched from sprint.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] anit77:
OMG that sucks :silly:

My company moved a little over 5 months ago. At my old office we were old about 1000ft from a tower and I got speeds like that. Now, as you can see above, I'm getting about half that. Sometimes a little better.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] CiDhed:
This was actually while I was riding in a car on the highway in a somewhat rural area. I even get LTE in the local small town that I live outside of. It's a huge step from Edge on TMo or 3g on Sprint. Lowest I've gotten is 15 down, Up is always in the 8-13 range.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] tassadar898:
I noticed decrease bars to the point where it would say I have no reception at home with international ROMS but I always had 1-2 bars on ATT ROM so I'm pretty sure something funky is going on with international roms on ATT HTC One.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jcracken:
I've noticed with the Int'l stock ROM i usually only get one or two bars of LTE. Once in a whle I get 3 or 4 bars, and when I do... my god....
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] illmatic416:
Here's the post I was talking about.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40541803&postcount=18&nocache=1
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Daman09:
Yeah, what the hell is this? Is there a different international standard for a bar of signal? It shows me only having one bar, where I had 3 or 4 before on the AT&T rom.

This seems to be the only problem with the stock international rom from what I can tell.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ibanezbass:
My stock is great :)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] agreever:
I haven't noticed a difference in LTE speeds between my HTC Unlocked model and my AT&T model. The LTE signal is pretty much the same on both as well. Running latest radio on both.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] daraj:
Question on the side: By saying HTC unlocked model do you mean you bought it straight from from HTC and If yes does it have LTE bands for ATT?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jcracken:
I think that AT&T just customizes its ROM to make it look like there are more bars than there actually are.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] eallan:
At&t being dishonest? Never!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gtg465x:
Just tested my unlocked vs. the AT&T display model in store and in the same spot it showed 3 bars of LTE and mine showed 1 bar, but mine showed -102dBm in settings and the AT&T version showed -105dBm, and mine pulled 12 Mbps in Speedtest while the AT&T only pulled 9.8 Mbps. So AT&T's software is a big fat liar.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] mchinand:
Is there a standard conversion for signal strength to displayed bars? Sounds like they're using a different conversion.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gtg465x:
There's no official standard. And that's part of the problem. The international ROMs probably use the default Android standard and the AT&T version uses AT&T's own standard.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] saditch:
Completely agree. I'm running TrickDroid 5.1 (fantastic ROM by the way) and here in Atlanta I'm getting crazy fast LTE speeds, irrespective of the amount of bars displayed. Check out the screenshot for my latest speedtest...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] gtg465x:
Did a little testing, and here's roughly what I'm seeing on my unlocked version, but keep it mind, it's not quite this simple because the RSRQ reading can play into the number of bars shown as well, but to a lesser extent.

5 bars: ?

4 bars: -78 to (at least) -73 dBm

3 bars: -89 to -79 dBm

2 bars: -99 to -90 dBm

1 bars: ? to -100 dBm

0 bars: ?

Does anyone have an issue only being able to view YouTube videos in HQ over mobile network, instead of HD?

The same SIM allows HD via another handset (Galaxy Nexus) so I don't think its a provider issue.

After following the steps in OfficialPhoneRebel's youtube video (How To Root ANY Samsung Galaxy S3 4.1.2, 4.1.1 & 4.0.4 on Verizon, T-mobile, Sprint, AT&T, I9300, Rogers & All others!) to Root my gs3, my phone has done something different.

I have the i535, flashed to Cricket. When i first flashed it, I couldn't get rid of the no sim notification and I couldn't see my 3g icon. I have android version 4.1.1. It also wouldn't read another carrier's sim card.

One day, while trying to flash a new modem in recovery mode, I pressed the home+vol up+ power button and I held it until my phone vibrated twice, and when my phone started up, under the Samsung logo, was an unlocked symbol. When my phone finished loading, I noticed that I no longer had the NO SIM notification in my status bar. Also, I had my 3g signal, which my phone never showed for my flashed Cricket service.

I tested my phone a little more. With my Verizon gs3, it would never recognize another carrier's sim card, until now. I inserted a Simple Mobile sim card and I was able to make/receive calls, which is really shocking to me. Later this week, I plan on testing a T-Mobile sim.

Would unlocking the bootloader have something to do with this?

I apologize if all of this is old news. I'm a noob to this forum but I haven't read anything on this. I've read lots of articles on here concerning the i535 and it seems like a bigger process to unlock it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amit34521:
Hello everyone. In this post i will tell you how to access su using adb. After searching here i didn't found anything about it so i will tell you how to do it.

Prerequisites:

1. A rooted android device.

2. Adb (Link in end of the post)

3. A windows PC (Sorry i am not familiar with Linux yet).

So here it is how to do it.

Step 1: First download Adb from link in end of the post. Extract the zip and you will find three files. Put them in some convenient location so that it is easily accessible using cmd. For example i used c:\ Adb.

Step 2: Connect your device. Make sure that USB storage is turned off.

Step 3: Goto run and type cmd. in cmd type following commands to navigate to the folder containing adb. first type 'cd\' without quotes. It will bring you to root directory. Then type 'cd adb' to go to adb folder.

Step 4: now type 'adb shell'. This will open shell of adb where you can type an command. Symbol $ means that you are connected. Now type 'su' in there after $ symbol. $ changes to # .

Success. now you can type any commands that you type in terminal emulator of your device.
