Common guys, personal attacks and questionable language are inappropriate here. Please limit your comments to technical discussion.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
I'm trying, pof, I really am. I want to get to the bottom of PTT more than anybody. I having difficulties with the facts being presented here though. for instance, I'm writing this using wap.cingular on my pda connect plan....

I've decided to wait for the facts from my technical contact at Cingular before sorting this out since the info I'm getting here contradicts that which I've been hearing from many in the Cingular community, including those giving technical presentations to my company, concerning the nature of the 3G technology they are deploying.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
i'm going to attempt to change that:

due to weather, I'm on an extended layover at Chicago O'hare so I've got a bit of time to play with the UMTS signal that my TyTN is now on.

FieldTest pretty much proves out what RF9 was trying to say. I have no GSM signal here, -99 DB, band 255 (unknown). The WCDMA band is completely lit up though. This means that the voice call I just made to my wife occurred over WCDMA. Consequently, WCDMA-GSM handoff technology outlined by RF9 is fully supported conjecture if not outright fact.

That being said, my own conjecture concerning PTT handoffs is more likely than not true as well. We know that Cingular's PTT technology is voice based using Kodiac technology so the same issues will exist for PTT conversations during the GSM handoff. No doubt, it's been delayed until a 3G PTT service is rolled out in 2K7. This doesn't mean that GSM based PTT will cease, only that it will be activated on both bands.

Now to your 8125 question.

I'm working with the PTT service right now as part of an attempt to re-activate the button for other purposes so my knowledge of the PTT implementation on the TyTN is increasing. Based on this, if there's nothing specific in the Kodiac implementation with regards to the voice band it uses, it may be possible to graft the implemenation onto a GSM only device. However, there may also be tight coupling with the radio as well and if the Kodiac code is a radio implementation then you may be SOL.

btw: I'm getting great Internet response here. This UMTS stuff rocks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
Here's the facts from Sean Ramsey, our corporate technical contact over at Cingular:

Hopefully, this also seperates fact from fiction in this thread as well.

Voice calls made on WCDMA are handed off to GSM exactly as RF9 described. Since PTT is voice based, then it too must be handed off. Thus the need for a 3G PTT implementation as well as the technology required for the handoff itself. Thus the delay on the 8525 PTT implementation which will be fixed in the form of a software upgrade when Cingular rolls out their 3G PTT service in 2K7.

We'll see about grafting it onto your 8125 then :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
That is fantastic, that is perfect info.... So if the PTT is handed off to the GSM then there is no reason why we cant make this work on the 8125.. makes me wonder why cingular never released it... i wonder if its because they changed the default connection on the 8125 to my isp.. i would assume that PTT wouldnt be able to connect with the buddy list crap on that, only over MEdia net..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] RF9:
3G Hand-Off

There is some discussion on the pending 8525 release thread on Howard Forums about the rumor that the 8525 will be delayed until 2007 because it has trouble "with 3G." Everyone (including me) seems to think that while it may be a legitimate issue, the 8525 is going to come out 10/24/06. It was confirmed from a TyTn owner that if his phone goes from UMTS to GSM, it won't ever go back until he power cycles the radio. It shouldn't work this way. Once you end a call, or while in standby, your phone should find 3G and return to it when it can. Just like if you roamed to a different carrier's GSM tower, your phone would find your home GSM network eventually and return to it (same return to home concept.)

Anyway, the point of my post is that the owner of a JasJam confirmed taking a call from 3G to GSM without dropping.

Here's that post: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=7988328#post7988328 This is just in case anyone needed more convincing.

Having said that, it seems completely illogical to me that anyone would design a device to work with 3G PTT and not be backward compatible with GSM/GPRS.

wap.cingular or isp.cingular vs. PTT? I haven't a clue.

Anyway, for what it's worth. I just wanted to share this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] goestoeleven:
I can tell you that I seem to not have any issues switching between UMTS and GSM -- on a call or otherwise. And when I return to a UMTS area, the "U" reappears on my display.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] austin_boy:
Few facts:

3G/2G handoffs and vice versa ( called IRAT HO) is working fine both ways for voice. As for data: If you are on HS your throughput will drop to zero for 8 sec and it will then automatically go to EGPRS.

If you are on EDGE you stay on EDGE. You need to reinitiate the session to get to 3G( HO will be implemented late 2007).

If you check the "fieldtest" utility will see 2G and 3G reselection parameters group page. These are the thresholds the ue use to make a decision to Handover to 3G/2G

PTT= It is the same as GSM, circuit switch based. No UMTS solution for now. It will come in the future as a packet switch solution.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] lpsi2000:
I have a JasJam and I have confimed the voice (UMTS to GMS) and (GMS - UMTS) work without dropping my call. The data UMTS to (E)GPRS seem to work okay, however (E)GPRS to UMTS requires a reconnect in order to continue with my browsing.

I am still trying to figure out wheter isp.cingular or wap.cingular makes a difference with browsing
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] goestoeleven:
I've never seen an appreciable difference between isp.cingular and wap.cingular on browsing. The big difference for me is on Exchange Activesync (it works much better with isp.cingular and without any proxy).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] lpsi2000:
@goestoeleven,

Are there no differences in UMTS location?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] goestoeleven:
I didn't notice any, but I've been sticking with isp.cingular (I like to get my email in a timely manner).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
well, I'm in a fringe UMTS area here at the Dulles Airport Hilton: the front of my room has 1 bar UMTS and the back has 3 bars GSM. I couldn't ask for a better test bed :rolleyes:

edit:

Unfortuantely, I was too busy to take any real advantage of this. I did make a few phonecalls though which seemed to work well enough.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] bo2k10:
not true at all, UMTS-GSM handovers can and do occur, either way, during IDLE MODE and DEDICATED MODE (CALL)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Armaani:
I have some issue with LG g2 F320L

during call other party or person can't hear me and I have to speak much louder but still they complaint breaking of voice. I have tested with hand free and almost same problem. Also during call phone start dropping signal.

Also I have tested in open air I mean outside room or home and observed much better call quality & less drop of signal but inside building it start dropping signal during call. (before call signal strength is Full).

Any idea what is wrong with my phone ? how to fix it.

I have tested on skype, viber and found no problem.

Even if you have any anti theft installed in your android phone and lose your phone , the stealer can easily wipe off everything by accessing bootloader with volume keys. By this way you cannot track your phone.:crying:

Bootloader is written specific to the hardware by manufacturers but there are number of open source bootloaders like u boot:). Now my question is how to put password for bootloader?, What programming language is used in bootloaders.?Where can I find source code?
[Moto X Q&A] mystikz2002:
Does anyone have the Republic Wireless Moto X running on AT&T and is ok?

Just received a RW Moto X and realized I purchased it from them instead of AT&T on the Moto Maker site.

It is on 4.2.2 and I was seeing if I should even pursue rooting and flashing a new rom onto it that would allow the changing of the network technology (GSM vs CDMA, etc.)

Thanks in advance for the help!
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Nope, if you don't plan to use Republic you should return it instead. The RW Moto X will only operate on RW. You cannot bootloader-unlock it, and you cannot SIM-Unlock it. That phone can only ever been used on Republic Wireless.

P.S. When you re-order your new phone, I highly suggest buying the T-Mobile version instead. The T-Mobile variant comes SIM-Unlocked and is Bootloader-Unlockable. You can use it straight out-of-the-box on AT&T or T-Mobile.

If you buy the AT&T Variant, it comes SIM-Locked to AT&T (and you will have to buy/obtain a SIM-Unlock code if you ever want to use it on another carrier), and you cannot unlock the bootloader either.

Additionally, the T-Mobile variant supports all of the frequencies AT&T (and T-Mobile) currently use in the United States.

Good Luck
[Moto X Q&A] mystikz2002:
Thank you for the honest and straight forward post. The T-Mobile version it is.

I will be ordering again shortly.

Thanks again!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
[MENTION=375095]mystikz2002[/MENTION]

Some additions to what [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] has already said...

There were some who were successful in using the 3rd party Chinese Website/Middleman to BUY the boot loader unlock code for the Republic Wireless X. BUT he is right in that no one has been able to SIM unlock them, so they will only work on Republic Wireless.

If you are going to get the GSM Unlocked (ships with T-Mobile SIM), which is AKA the T-Mobile version, from MotoMaker, just know that if you want to unlock its bootloader (if you want to root), while Moto will give you the unlock code for FREE on their web site, requesting the bootloader unlock code voids its warranty. So compare the price of that model, to the GSM Developer Edition X. While you can't customize its look (Dev Ed ships only as black face, woven white back, silver accents {buttons and camera ring}, and 32gig), unlocking its bootloader doesn't void the warranty. Internal hardware and functionality wise, the GSM Dev Edition and the GSM Unlocked are the same phone.

When on the lockscreen, drag the clock widget to the right, you'll notice you can move it, move it until you get a little plus symbol, tap that and there you can add lockscreen widgets (it will ask you to unlock your phone first before being able to add the widget of course).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshR81:
Hi, so i was removing the silicon on top of the Audio IC (U604) so i could get some flux under the chip to reflow the balls, to fix the mic and speaker problem on calls. Anyway, i accidentally knocked off a resistor in the process. I tried to get it back on by putting it in position, and hoping it would reflow at the same time as the Audio IC. But i was using a heat gun as part of the reflow process, and even though i put some tweezers on the resisitor to hold it down, it was still blown away by the heat gun air.

So, my question is, what problems will this cause to the function of the phone? What would the function of this resistor be?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsahin4:
Hello everyone,

I would like to share big problem what I have and killing me.

Sometimes (1 time in a day or 1 time in 2 days), GSM signal is lost and I have to restart my nexus. What I have done so far,

* I checked my IMEI number and that's OK

* I checked my sim card againts to damages and scratches and that's OK. But these is gap between sim tray and card by ~1mm. The gap is only on long side of tray, short side is fully matched.

* I checked signal power and asked to carrier (TR AVEA) and that's OK.

* I installed hidden menus from Google Play then go to setting -> testing menu -> Phone Info

- preferred mode : GSM auto (PRL)

- If I select "select radia band" from pull-down menu, only one possibilities "USA Band". Even If select this, GSM and data signal loss.

- I tried another carrier sim card (Vodafone TR) and applied same settings above (USA Band), and failed again.

- I understand that "USA Band" is not suitable for us :)

My device is D821(E) and use 4.4.3 full stock firmware. No root, locked.

Can anyone help me? Thank.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lewythefly:
After I updated to 4.4.3 (via purity ROM and Flashing the new Radio/Baseband) I noticed my data connection was constantly droppping in and out

So today I decided to flash the old radio from KRT16M (4.4.2) to see if it made a difference and it seems to have so far. I haven't had any loss of connection in the 2hrs since flashing, whereas on the new radio it was constantly dropping in and out. I will test for longer but i think the new radio in 4.4.3 may not be optimised for some networks (i'm on Optus in Australia)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsahin4:
2 months ago, someone from Turkey who use same carrier (TR AVEA) has noticed signal loss problem with 4.4.2

But weird problems without solution :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxdil:
Guessing from the last line, you had updated to 4.4.3 through OTA? You could try to reflash the radio img but that would require you to has custom recovery.

That's because flashing different modem images (D280/D281) does not change your available phone bands. It is a hardware limitation, nothing to do with with firmware.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Staggerlee66:
That was not on my phone. I put it on. As you can see in the pic above there is a world of difference between the two models. Depending on where you are if you get a d20 radio in a d21 your going to get no data like i did

# 47386
