Your problem doesn't seem the same as mine.

I have no home network.

My vario, on a public hotspot, always "connects" but always fails on "locate".
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rob61280:
you need to make sure the connection is not using a proxy server.

go into settings

connections

then manage existing connections

untick the checkbox on the proxy settings tab that says this connection uses a proxy (or words to that effect)

now you should be able to connect to the network as long as their is no security in place to stop you.

good luck

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] WifiIdiot:
Hi,

I have no "manage existing connections"

under settings->connections.

I go into connections which gives <tasks> and <Advanced> tabs

Under Advanced> I have <select networks>

This screen "Network Management" has two drop downs

1 states "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using"

"T-Mobile Internet" is selected

If I edit and look at proxy settings it has:

"This network connects to the internet" ticked

the proxy server box is empty

If I edit the modem tab it has Cellular Line (GPRS) selected

Dropdown 2 has

Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:

the dropdown is filled with "My Work Network"

By default the "connects to the internet" box is empty. I have filled this in previously with no luck.

Modem is empty as are all the other entries.

I have swapped the order of the dropdowns, I have made both "My Work network" and both "T-Mobile Internet" with no luck.

I have tried the suggestions on the thread I referenced above - again with no luck.

To repeat I can get the "connection" up. When I select the network it states connection is "good" yet when I try to surf to a page it craps out on the "Locate" message.

Is it failing to find a DNS server on the wifi link?

I'm just guessing as I know v little about WiFi as I have never used it before

TIA for any further contributions
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mattucd:
I just wanted to say I have this same problem and have not been able to solve it yet. I can't tell whether to use GPRS while using Internet, or whether I should have the connection set to "Work" or "Internet" or what.

I have tried with 3 unprotected wireless networks already and have gotten the same results with each. I suspect it may be due to DNS. Hopefully it is not the phone itself.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] WifiIdiot:
Hi mat,

Well it can't be that you *must* use GPRS whilst surfing - thats what WIFI is for!

I suspect (no real evidence)T-Mobile have somehow crippled the OS to make it difficult to work out how to get free hotspot access working properly. Looking at their site they say CS do not "support" WIFI access problems - how convenient!!!!!

Although I am a WIFI virgin/idiot, I am not a *total* idiot :-) and would have been able to get it working if it was completely straightforward.

To add ammunition to this opinion, I do not have a T-Zone account (I should have but it hasn't been set up correctly). Anyway I tried to connect though a t-zone and it worked straightaway presenting me with the login page. I could also download data - the terms and conditions.

However, obviously I couldn't surf to totally check it out as I couldn't login.

I wish someone would provide a definitive solution as it is really irritating me now!!!!!

Why would it be hanging on "locate"? I imagine it must be because it cannot look up the IP address through the free WIFI link. I made the same suggestion as you did earlier something to do with the DNS setup.

Thats as far as I can get!!!!!

I've been having issues ever since I got this phone with muffled mic. I've tried everything such as removing the rubber cap, increasing the mic volume with stweaks, increasing the volume through the phone code dial screen, changing roms, changing modems. None of these have helped which means the microphone itself is faulty. I'm not sure which charging port to get to replace mine.

There seem to be 3 models Rev 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4. I currently have 2.2. Will 2.3 or 2.4 be compatible with mine? If anyone has the same issue I would appreciate if you link the microphone you bought thanks

Once i replaced my 2.2 revision pcb with a greater revision (i dont remember if 2.3 or 2.4).it didn't work, mic worked but very poor. I had to buy a new one, this time same 2.2 revision ,and now it work perfect.

Even better, it has a magnet on the cover, so the tablet sleeps when the cover is closed, just like the original slide cover.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
This has been answered about 4 times this week alone. All Nexus 5's are unlocked! Your Nexus 5 is the same D820 model that the Google Play Store sell. T-Mobile has not made any modifications to it. No carrier bloatware, it's not carrier locked, no T-Mobile WiFi calling installed, etc.

It's 100% unlocked and 100% the same as the one on the Play Store! Pure Google!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkoreaper:
There is no physical/software difference between the two. The only thing special about it is that your phone is flagged as a T-Mobile device since T-Mobile knows your serial number (or some other identification number). AFAIK, this allows you to download the t-mobile voicemail app from the play store.

So if I get the device off Google play website I won't be able to use my T-Mobile insurance if something goes wrong with the device? I would save $50 if purchased from google
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I believe you will still be able to utilize T-Mobile's insurance. Its not like its an At&t or Sprint specific phone then it would be understandable why T-Mobile won't cover it. T-Mobile sells the very same phone as the one on the Play Store so it shouldn't be an issue.

Note: If you do decide to buy the Nexus 5 from the Play Store then you'll be covered under a manufacturers warranty. Its not exactly the same as T-Mobile's insurance but it will cover any software and/or hardware defects (minus a cracked screen or water damage).

sent from my neXus 5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkoreaper:
I don't think you can get the insurance if you didn't purchase it from them. I have T-Mobile and I wasn't given that option.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
In the past, when I was with T-Mobile I used to always get phones off of Craigslist and I would sometimes send them to T-Mobile for a warranty exchange. As far as I know the insurance is transferable from device to device. Of course it won't be if you have an At&t branded device but if T-Mobile has the device in their lineup then I don't see why they wouldn't honor it and give you another one if you pay monthly for their insurance service.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipTD:

My bad bud. Since I haven't run an AOSP rom before, I was unaware you couldn't do that. A quick Google search found these. Maybe one of them will work.

[Moto X Q&A] tu3218:
Only thing I don't like about the X is the way volume control works. Its like one volume for all. I know I can go into settings to adjust a few minor individual different volume settings but that's just inconvenient. Basically like I'm in a game and turn the music, and at the same time it turns my ring tone down. Any app to better manage volume control?
[Moto X Q&A] Mr. Orange 645:
That's weird. If I'm playing a movie or playing a game and adjust volume, it only adjusts the media volume, not my ringtone. Same when its connected to my stereo via Bluetooth, the volume buttons only turn down the Bluetooth.

And the way the volume adjustment is handled is not unique to the Moto X, its how Android handles it on every phone.

With that said, if you have root, you can install Xposed and use GravityBox to add expandable volume controls.

Hi

I am trying to get ethernet access on the N7 LTE using a USB OTG cable and USB-Ethernet adapter. Has anyone had success with patching the stock images, or is there a development ROM that has this available.

Thanks

Alex

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Pandae:
Yes. Take a look here. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=58868

There's a lot to go through, but the condensed version is that a fellow made a new boot image that supports Ethernet connections via USB OTG. Your bootloader must be unlocked in order to flash the boot image.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AlexParx:
Thanks, but it is still not working.

I have downloaded the N7 LTE patched boot image from the thread and flashed it. My N7 boots successfully but using the OTG cable + USB ethernet adapter the ethernet is not recognised (I am using a USB 2.0 ethernet adapter from the company 'Plugable')

I have also tried to extract, edit and repack an official rom, but I get an error during the repack stage. I am trying to use Android kitchen and cygwin.

So I am stuck. Help!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AlexParx:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AlexParx:
Everything seems to work now except Youtube app.

Frustrating thing is that I have to connect to a wifi source, disconnect, and then ethernet works (I am not using a sim). If I dont connect first to wifi, the apps dont see the connection!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AlexParx:
I went to use the Microsoft Remote Desktop app over ethernet and the device does not see a network! Would have thrown the device in the garbage disposal shute (if I had one).

Finally there is a solution to get ethernet working on the Nexus 7 2013 LTE with all apps without connecting to Wifi first and praying to the heavens. I found that installing the latest stable Cyanogen Rom works, so I can now use this needlessly hampered device for what I purchased it for.

Hope this saves someone some valuable time, unnecessarily wasted by ? at Goggle for reasons unfathomable.

On .290 and prior firmwares, you could access the camera directly from the lockscreen without unlocking via your password/pattern/etc.

I just noticed that I can't do anything on the lockscreen now that I am on .136 without unlocking the phone first.

I recall there was no actual limit to the number of apps you could add to your lockscreen before - for example, I had it so that when you swiped right, the camera started - but when you swiped left, it went to my GMail widget.

Sure, when I tried actually opening an email from the widget, it would prompt me for my pattern - but I could view the subject lines and first lines of each email without any problem.

I now can't seem to do anything - nor can I find a setting to enable it.

I got sandisk 16gb from amazon. Paid a good $22 for it. Around the same time, bought samsung 16gb micro sd while it was on sale for my tablet.

Three months into use, sandisk just stopped working. All the photos I took over the period of three months lost with it. Mind you, I'm not tech- illiterate, so I attempted different methods to recover my data with no luck.

Contacted sandisk, and received a new micro sd through warranty. A months into use, it failed again. Luckily, I had backed up my photos with dropbox, so no real losses except wasted time.

Didn't even bother to file warranty and tossed the sd out.

Been using samsung microsd for good six months with no problem.

Here on XDA there are significantly less problems with Samsung SD's compared to Sandisk. Especially using the larger (64GB for example) sizes.
