I would like some help and advice here, am I hoping on too much from my SX66 or do I have Software/Rom Issues? I'm a newbe here so I'm sorry for this being so longl

I have been using a Motorola MPx220, I loved the way it worked with outlook, and bluetooth, so I thougth it would be nice to have a true PDA for notes etc and a phone in one. up to now for the last 6 months I have been using a Motorola MPx220 & an HP4705 pda for making notes etc.

I have had SX66 for a little less than a week, the signal reception has be horrible for example here at my computer the MPX220 has full signa yet the SX66 only has 1 bar

My device info is as follows:

ROM Version: 1.33.10 WWE

ROM Date: 1/21/05

Radio Version: 1.02.10

Protocol Version: 1337.35

ExtROM version: 1.33.110 WWE

The case that came with the phone doesn't do a good job staying on the belt, I have had issues with making a call and having no audio at all, this is with bluetooth, hardwire earphones or just the phone.

so far I HATE this phone, does anyone else have any expierence with this phone? Do I just have a lemon or is it the phone?

I travel about 4-5 days per week on average across the southeast it would be nice to have an all in one device, be able to surf the web with a larger screen, write directly to the screen for notes etc. and maybe even e-mail but this really sucks, I also have been trying to set it up on my 802.11b/g network but I don't have any luck setting it up, I do have a password on the network but I can't seem to get this shown.

Please let me know what you think, I'm open for suggestions, also If I keep this phone/pda what is the best case for it?

Thanks for all of your help.

I have the Krusell Multidapt for my SX66; it adds very little bulk, especially if you don't attach the belt hook. I bought mine on eBay a few months back for $23.

You should definitely update the firmware; I'm using the standardized SX66 ROM, and I've noticed definite improvements in BT and WiFi performance. I use WiFi both at home & office; it's free and much faster than GPRS.

I haven't noticed any GSM signal issues in metro Atlanta; I live in Duluth & work on Mansell near North Point Parkway. I get excellent signal at home but only one bar (on a good day) at the office, but the phone works well there. FWIW, when I visited Southern Cali last Xmas, my SX66 did better in low signal conditions than my dad's Nokia.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ChrisSpera:
Yes, updating your device to the latest Radio ROM will go a LONG way in helping you out. I have a PDA2k that I am using on Cingular, and have notice a great deal of signal improvement here in Nashville, TN with the 1.13 Radio ROM.

if you go to the Blue Angel Wiki page, you should find links to all the firmware updates you need, including the Radio ROM.

The SX66 Extended ROM Standardization Project will also have a decent Ext. ROM that you can use. It will have the latest BlueTooth stack in it, as well as updated software for use in the SX66.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] tommyloui:
I see a few reply's about updating the Rom

Which ROM is best? I have seen reply's telling of different sites for rom's also for a newbe any place I can get good step by step directions?

Thanks

Also keep the advice comming I really appreciate all of the help

Are there any kernels that work with this? I recall people mentioning them, but there aren't any threads for abg.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
yeah, there are. I need to do some research and see if we can add them to the "all-in-one" thread...
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonhart6505:
I've been hoping there were more kernels available other than aaarrrgghhh. I saw a thread about Code kernel but the site that hosted the download is down. Could anyone point out or mention any of the custom kernels so we can at least search for them? Thanks!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
as of now, I could only find the stock and aarrrrgh's kernel. bytecode is for AOSP ROMs only (4.2.2 and above).

not really sure why you would need another kernel, stock and aarrrgh's reportedly qork quite well.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonhart6505:
only reason i want a different kernel is for graphical performance. i know overclocking really has no effect on this with our device (or at least very little) but lately ive been having issues with games running poorly and stuttering. ive only noticed these after installing Rootbox and then not liking it so flashed back to stock then back to Eclipse.

i know someone is going to say that any changes made when installing a rom will be overwritten when you flash to another, and even better back to stock, but since having flashed Rootbox just once my phone has been freaking out and i have wiped wiped wiped wiped wiped wiped and returned to stock idk how many times and its still not right. nobody seems to have any answer or even a response to this issue.

im not blaming Rootbox, but it is pretty coincidental that these issues have sprung up and originated only after i used it.

sorry to thread-jack. anyway, would bytecode work on Eclipse? or is that just CM10.1?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
not sure.... but I think Eclipse has a 4.2.2 ROM, so it could work. but I vaguely recall that some kernels only work with certain build dates....
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonhart6505:
i have Eclipse V5 b3 already on my device. just cant find the bytecode kernel link anywhere

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPKfoury:
Hello guys,

I don't know if anyone have seen this problem but anyway here it is:

A friend of mine gave me his ace 2 that have a totally broken software, this means the phone is not turning on, neither entering download or safe mode. When the phone is plugged into the power outlet there is no battery that appears on the screen. NOTHING at all. When I plug the phone into the PC and press the power on button, the phone does nothing but the PC make this beep sound (when a USB is inserted) and then directly after 2-3 second it makes another beep sound (when USB is removed) and take note that on those 2-3 seconds I did nothing, I just tried to turn the phone on and NOTHING happens. When I retry to press the power button again I can also hear the beeps sounds but still nothing on the screen. I tried to press it for the 3rd time, the same thing happened. Tried to enter download mode, it the same, beep sound then nothing.

When I tried to ask him what have he done he told me that something appeared on the screen (wipe, reset, something similar) and he just clicked yes and ok for everything.

I guess the problem is either that the battery is down and it needs to be changed, or that he completely reset the flash memory of the phone.

Any solution guys? Please help and thanks.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swalihcmr:
Remove the battery for few seconds and reinsert..

Then try to enter the Download mode...

If it is not working still, then, sorry to say, I think the phone is hard bricked.. :(

Hi what's the different HDC galaxy S4 or someothers

I have got a phone with many great functions as original and I like it , many people just

talk about HDC or some others , but what's the different , anyway I think this

one is great .

http://youtu.be/WQSoYRFgJ-Q

here you can check their video about the product .

http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...id-4-2-1280-720-pixels/515191_1013188156.html

here is the amazing clone S4 , if that can be mt 6589t is better ,lol .

Gosh they can supply ROM rooted with samsung booting animation , everything seems pretty great !!!

:p
[General Topics] bullriders:
I had bought a Note2 clone under different name and it was not 4g or LTE at all. The OS said it was ICS but in reality was more like a GB with ICS looking launcher.

Since they are basically clones. They don't go through FCC approval on many things like Radiation exposure.

They might be cheap and fairly well made but support is hard to get. Repair parts even worse and developers don't want anything to do with them.

Check the FCC ID on the FCC.gov website and you'll realize its fake and belongs to another phone.

They're like lead paint, they look good but will hurt you at the end.
[General Topics] chaselxm:

thanks for your advice , that's really horrible thing

but I found this link http://www.aliexpress.com/item/s4-p...e-android-4-2-1280-720-pixels/1013188156.html

they have sold out many pcs , all reviews are great ,that's weird :p
[General Topics] bullriders:
That's because people don't think about That stuff. They normally just look at price and looks.

Just like bootleg purses, its just usually stolen technology or used without permission.

But cost of brand name includes expensive safety testing that is required in the US for Radiation exposure, interfearance, battery safety, etc. Something that is no dot. With cheap off brands sold online.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] gdjindal:
I am using my LG P765 with V20A indian rooted CWM 6.0.3.1 Bootloader Unlocked.

Today i got a notification regarding software update for V20B. So I took cwm backup, and installed new update.

now my phone is continuously rebooting to cwm recovery. i have tried to restore CWM backup but issue is still there.

i have tried kdz installation but (i think) because of unlocked bootloader lg software not detecting my phone,\

no fastboot mode...... m totally stuck....plz help me

i dont know if reflashing recovery or flashing stock recovery may solve this....????

i aslo dont have stock recovery also dont know how i can flash recovery without fastboot.

SORRY FOR BAD ENGLISH

BUT PLEASE HELP
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
You are in luck my friend I am on the case. Okay this is what you need to do.

Note: Steps 2-6 are needed if something goes wrong with the update.

1.

a. Extract the stock recovery from V20A indian (look at my signature). Hopefully you have the V20A kdz already.

b. Place the extracted recovery (should be labeled "3-recovery.img") into the stock_recovery.zip and flash inside cwm

c. reboot, this will take you into the stock recovery and complete the ota update.

2. Download Lelus Fastboot

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41768774

3. Install the omap4430 driver twice (in to different locations). This is has to do with fastboot.

Help if you have problems installing the drivers http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44578108&postcount=34

4. Place cwm recovery image (name it "cwm.img") inside here "c:\fastboot\yours"

5. Right click on start.bat and select run as Administrator

6. Select option #1 (fastboot) and issue the following when everything is operation properly.

fastboot devices
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
fastboot reboot

not needed you have cwm recovery, actually you will need the above (lol) if the update doesn't go through properly.

I'll add some more info, hold up.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] gdjindal:
thanks for reply but i dont know how to flash recovery in this condition. Is there any method to flash recovery through CMW or boot to fastboot using CMW.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Lolgast:
did you already tried to flash it to CyanogenMod 10.1 and than back to LG stock android?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] gdjindal:
yeah buddy,

i already tried that. I think its issue of recovery.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Lelus:
Do you have stock recovery img ?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] kuma82:
Extract the stock recovery.img first (from the kdz V20A). This happened while doing an ota update right?

Once you have it, we will continue the process.

CM 10.1 P769
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] cmahendra:
LG L9 is totally unbrickable phone and it is told many a times before by me and everyone.

If you keep a cool and follow things in this post and few instructions from others from this post, you can still flash any LG Stock Rom on your phone and recover it.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cat McGowan:
Assuming you are using Microsoft Windows, you will need four programs to extract files from the .ftf file.

1. An archive file tool like WinRAR or 7-Zip. Use the tool to extract the system.sin file from the .ftf file. You might have to change the .ftf extension to .rar or .zip to cause WinRAR or 7-Zip to open the file.

2. sin2img.exe. Use it to create a system.img file from system.sin file.

3. Ext2 Volume Manager (aka ext2fsd). It is a Windows driver. Running it will allow Windows to access the EXT4 partitions in the system.img file.

4. OSFMount. Use it to mount/unmount the system.img file as a Windows drive.

When you have the system.img file mounted as a Windows drive, you can extract whatever files you want.

If you have an S4 with unlimited, tethering should do you nicely. I know people like mobile data, but personally I don't think it's worth the wallet and battery hit to a tablet when you can tether.

Besides that, unless you can get the original at a lower price, the new Nexus 7 basically outstrips the old one in every category.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Lightman:
Hey guys. I'm in the initial research stages of buying a PPC, however I am very limited on time before I have to choose one because my current nextel phone died. The company I work for is switching from nextel to sprint, so I will be signing up on what is currently the sprint pcs network. I have looked around a bit, and have a lot of interest in the pda2k version of the blue angel, however I came to realize that sprint uses CDMA instead of GSM/GPRS. My understanding is very juvenile of how these protocols work and their compatibility, however it's my understanding that the quad band GSM standard pda2k will not work with my sprint CDMA carrier. It appears the EVDO model is CDMA compatible. Will this easily be able to work with SPRINT?

I see they offer their version of the same thing basically, the ppc 6600 sprint version of the blue angel. What I'm also wondering, is there any real advantage to getting the i-mate version? I know there is the i-mate forum with updates etc, but aren't those firmware etc updates available to sprint 6600 owners as well?

I know that getting the unlocked pda2k GSM version has its advantages in the versatility - switching from carrier to carrier. Does the EVDO share any of the same benefits? I'm assuming the sprint 6600 is not transferable?

I know I should spent days/hours searching and reading up on these forums and typically do in other genres of products/research, however I am pressed for time and it's easy to see that the guys around this forum are the real deal and know their stuff. Excuse the blatant probe for knowledge if you would, and please offer any suggestions/answers to my issues if you're able! Thanks a million in advance,

Dave

22 views and nobody has any info? :?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] speedyr6:
The only advantage to the sprint 6600 vs the Imate is that the 6600 is EVDO which is faster data rates than you would get with the pda2k. However Sprint's data service is more expensive as well.

Some of the disadvantages:

1. No WIFI on the sprint phone

2. Phone will only work on Sprint

3. Video capture is limited (don't know for a fact, only from hearsay)

If your employer is forcing you to Sprint then you have no choice and are stuck with the 6600 phone, which is OK. If you have a choice buy an iMate pda2k and get T-mob or Cingular...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] jglev:
If you are going with Sprint, then you have no choice but to get the 6600. The Sprint 6600 is basically the same phone as the iMate EVDO, so there is no advantage to getting the iMate especially since Sprint will not allow you to activated any phone on their network that they don't sell you. CDMA is not like GSM. There is basically no such thing as an unlocked CDMA phone and you can't transfer a CDMA phone from one provider to another (like Sprint to Verizon or visa versa).
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Lightman:
Thanks for the replies. I think I'm pretty much stuck with the 6600, or any better sprint compatible option. I think the only other one is the palm treo.

I am definitely locked into getting a sprint phone, and do not care about pricing plans etc as it's a company paid phone that's part of a group plan.

I think the 6600 is certainly more appealing than the treo feature wise, but I'm pretty worried about its ability to be used easily as a phone. How do you guys like them that use them on a regular basis to talk? I really don't like earpieces, and will likely use it like I use my nextel, on speakerphone holding it a few feet away from my face. Is it easy to find numbers and dial, call waiting etc?
