[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] benclewett:
After posting, my text RIL was shown with a link to most of the information.

There is one think I can't understand. The stucture returned as as follows:

int nMinSignalStrength; // @field TBD

int nMaxSignalStrength; // @field TBD

int nLowSignalStrength; // @field TBD

int nHighSignalStrength; // @field TBD

Which have the values (On XDA IIs) of -113, -51, -110, -60

Would any member know what the meaning of these values is?

I have then tried to convert the quality to a percentage. But the percentage always reads way to high, or zero.

My guess is that these are DB and therefore logarithmic. Would any member know how to convert to a linar scale?

My guess is something like: log10(n / 3) where n is any of the above or retuned figure.

Any ideas would be very useful!

Regards, Ben.

Hi,

HRESULT RIL_GetSignalQuality(
HRIL hRil // @parm handle to RIL instance returned by <f RIL_Initialize>
);

returns the following structure:

typedef struct rilsignalquality_tag {
DWORD cbSize; // @field structure size in bytes
DWORD dwParams; // @field indicates valid parameters
int nSignalStrength; // @field TBD
int nMinSignalStrength; // @field TBD
int nMaxSignalStrength; // @field TBD
DWORD dwBitErrorRate; // @field bit error rate in 1/100 of a percent
int nLowSignalStrength; // @field TBD
int nHighSignalStrength; // @field TBD
} RILSIGNALQUALITY, *LPRILSIGNALQUALITY;

Why don't you just use nSignalStrength? Sounds pretty simple and linear to me? Nothing to calculate...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] benclewett:
In trying to make my posting simple. I think I forgot to clarify my problem :)

First is the problem that the nSignalStrength falls between two values.

But there are two fields it can fall between:

nMinSignalStrength <= nSignalStrength <= nMaxSignalStrength

nLowSignalStrength <= nSignalStrength <= nHighSignalStrength

Which one should be used? Why are there two?

Secondly, I want to show a percentage result between one of the above. But these figures are, I belive, Decibels (BD). Each 3 DB = a doubling of the value. So 1 = 10%, 4 = 20%, 7 = 40% etc...

Therefore a liniar percent placement of nSignalStrengh tells me nothing. Most values are close to Max, and then suddenly zero.

My math is a little rusty :) I was hoping somebody may have a nice function for returning the linear range from the logarithmic rage….

Thanks again to any members who can offer some help :)

Ben
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Chatty:
Hmm... but what if min and max are just values currently encountered in your local cell? When you move to another cell you may receive different min/max values. Or maybe these are the values of the farest and nearest cell? I don't know either, but your explanation of min/max sounds worse to me than does mine...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] benclewett:
This could be correct. The values I have are on my XDA IIs using O2 are:

Min -113

Low -110

High -60

Max -51

Therefore:

Min < Low < nSignalStrength < High < Max

So I am using Low = 0% and High = 100%. But this returnes figures of above 50% when signal is quite low.

I think the linear conversion is exp(value / 3)

Therefore percent is:

percent = (exp(nSignalStrength / 3) - exp(Low / 3)) / (exp(high / 3) - exp(Low / 3)) * 100;

Which seems to give better figures. But I am not sure how accurate it is..

Any experts on signal quality out there, I'd love to hear from them!

Ben
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] benclewett:
If anybody is following this thread, this *seems* to return a good percentage for signal quality. I am not sure of the quality or accuracy. But it works :)

static double dValue, dMax;

dValue = (int)data->nSignalStrength; // (int) to convert twos complement signed integer correctly.

dMax = (int)data->nHighSignalStrength; // (int) to convert twos complement signed integer correctly.

dValue -= (int)data->nLowSignalStrength;

dMax -= (int)data->nLowSignalStrength;

dValue = pow(dValue / -3.0, 2);

dMax = pow(dMax / -3.0, 2);

dValue /= dMax;

dValue *= 100;

if (dValue > 100) dValue = 100; // never

if (dValue < 0) dValue = 0; // never

Hi there, i've been following this thread with interest I have a very limited knowlege of C++ but not even on the PPC.

Would you mind attaching or even PMing your cpp so i could possibly learn more ?

I find i learn more by examples, and am quite interested in making an application that can disable the radio then re-enable it after a set ammount of time (so i can swap between sims, i have a dual sim adapter)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] benclewett:
Best thing to do is follow the sample code supplied by these nice gues from xda-developers, by clicking on this RIL link.

BUT replace the ril.h in the .zip archive with the ril.h you will find from the link.

(nb: if the author of this .zip archive is reading, it's way out of date to the ril.h on this site. ps, hows the ril development going?)

If you get the sample code working, this will give you some idea of what is possible. Your options may not be possible. But look at the ril.h and the functions listed. If one of them does what you want, give it a go.

[NFC Hacking] damian01211:
Hello guys !

I'm planing to buy some NFC Tags.

I'm having to option's but I'm more prefer one of them as I can have 2 NFC tags instead of one.

Here are they:

http://www.airnfc.com/collections/all/products/nfc-ntag203-white-1

http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Android-NFC-...er_Cell_Phone_Accessories&hash=item27cee0b1d7

But as I said, I more prefer the one from AirNFC as they are cheaper and I could have them more.

But the question is with the AirNFC, there is an blank option or NDEF formatted. If I pick blank will they work and then can configure what action should be taken when phone detect's them ?

And a last question is do they work with App from Sony: Smart Connect ?

Also my phone is Sony Xperia L.
[NFC Hacking] ascsa:
Funny, the AirNFC guyswant 0,4€ for formating ...hmm ok,I think it´s a fair deal, if they handle each tag manually .... and it´s a good quality check.

However if you want to decide between these 2 sellers and only the price matters, I would go for the unformatted AirNFC tags ....all good android nfc writers should be able to format them ...I even included a format option within NFC ReTag (although ReTag is not a classical nfc writer app).

additional Pro: fully nfc forum compliant ....con: less memory than the ebay mifare tags.

Both tag types should be compatible with your xperia .... the sony smart connect guys "forgot" the option to write tags, but with the right content on it, you should be able to use them both with the smart connect app ....(have again a look at Retag .. the (more--> write smarttag for sony devices option ;)) ... and if you already installed retag, i don´t think you would need the sony app anyway ;-P

If I run 3rd party launchers like Apex for example. Would the features of TouchWiz be available still?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] panguin:
I'm using Nova, and I'm not sure what features of Touchwiz you are referring to, but I can tell you that running Nova, or even the ThemerApp Beta, the phone does mostly the same things. It still responds to the S-Pen exactly the same, all the crazy buttons in the notification bar are there, the only real difference is that a swipe from the bottom screen no longer automatically launches that dumb "My Magazine" thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] paul89:
What you will miss is Samsung's widgets that are made specifically for their launcher.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gwuhua1984:
Thanks guys for the input.

The feature I was talking was in fact the S Pen's features.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rickgsx:
I have a Galaxy Note 2 on Verizon, rooted with a Jellybeans ROM installed. About 2 days ago, I went to use tapatalk to review the forum and it gave me a server error... with something to the affect with an APN issue. Upon doing some research I found out that an APN could be causing the issue and was directed to remove any unnecessary APN's that maybe causing the problem. Well apparently I must have deleted a good APN.

Anyway, now I have the tapatalk application thing worked out, but now I just realized that I'm unable to receive MMS. So out I went again researching the possible cause and again, I'm coming up with a "potential" APN issue. I've search the internet and found about 5 different ways of configuring a Verizon APN setting on a rooted Galaxy Note 2 ... none of which has worked... so I thought I would reach out the Pro's to see if you guys can provide any assistance...?

Again, I'm on Verizon, I have a rooted/ROM'd (Jellybean OS) Galaxy Note 2...

Also, I backup weekly with TB... if there is anyway of restoring a file that would put my APN settings back... I'm all for that as well ...

Thank you again for your help and suggestions...

May be a dumb question but my contract ends tomorrow and I have unlimited data. Do I have to upgrade or renew my contract with Verizon? I want to stay with Verizon but don't want to lose my unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nyonya:
No, not at all. You're just eligible to leave to another carrier or receive a subsidy on a new phone (for extending your contract of course). Otherwise your service plan will just stay the same. I was out of contract for a good year before I got my S4 in June.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mdorrett:
Keep in mind if you accept a phone at subsidized price and agree to another 2 yr contract term you will lose your unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hinds90:
Thanks for the quick response. Lol this is my first time not upgrading so I wasn't sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hinds90:
Oh no lol I'm not getting rid of my unlimited unless they make me. For the last 2yrs I have been trading phones every couple of months. There's always someone will to trade if you have a current phone. I will probably be getting the note 3 and giving my wife the s4.

That's tax evasion if you did. That's against the law. Walmart and Sams are registered in all 50 states with the taxation office. You would have had to have had a tax exempt card to do that.
