[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] MisterRich:
So, this is bit of a new issue, one I've not had before. I wish Hangouts/Messenger still had the Service Center ID in the settings in order to fix this, but, in the long/short run...

I unboxed my pixel and put my SIM in, started the phone. LTE/UMTS work perfect, locked right on, good signal/speeds, can place/receive calls, all is right in the world? I noticed after an hour I hadn't received any texts, and after feeling very unimportant, I sent a SMS to a friend, and got an immediate error. Out of curiosity, I went into the INFO settings (*#*#3646#*#*) and went into the SMSC settings. pressed refresh, which, populated an error. I manually typed mine, hit update, went back to hangouts, and voila!

The next day, I restarted the phone ( I like to do this often. I am also this user who actually turns their phone off from time to time ) and noticed upon restart, the problem resurfaced, like as if I never updated it to begin with.

Is this occurring with anyone else? I've yet to see a phone completely dump it. I'd prefer not to download another SMS application really, but, it's just inconvenient those few times I do restart it that I lose that SMSC number...
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] vagosto:
I'm having the problem as well but still haven't been able to fix it with the same procedure you did. It's driving me nuts.

UPDATE EDIT: I just realized the Wifi is interfering with it. As soon as I turned off the wifi, the txt would go out.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Nadiar:
I'm having this same issue. I've contacted support about it, but haven't gotten a response yet (they said I would have an update yesterday).

If I manually put the SMSC in, and then Update, I can send texts briefly, but eventually I start getting an error 38 instead. A reboot and then manually entering the SMSC again allows me to send texts again.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Jaxidian:
I'm curious if setting your mobile data to always-on would be a functional workaround to help until they can get this fixed for real. Have you tried that?
[Greenify] SpookyWooky:
I have been in love with this app for over a year now I guess and it just keeps on getting better, thank you :), I have a couple of suggestions / questions if I am being dumb and missing something though...

The ability to allow hibernated apps to be woken up via GCM calls is amazing for apps that make sense, e.g. gmail / whatsapp / skype etc etc, but with the ever growing abuse of this system in games / apps that have no legitimate need to use it I feel it would kinda rock to be able to tell them in greenify that their services are not allowed to run and most definitely are not allowed to give you notifications. I know as of android 6+ you can disable notifications for apps, but as far as I understand how that works it just ignores any gcm push the services / alarms / wakelocks / whatever try to make ?, whilst leaving the actual battery draining parts active. The best solution I have come up with so far is to go through apps I feel have no right to use gcm and deny their access to the appropriate service in Better Battery Saver... feels a bit of a chore hehe.

My other suggestion is to have a whitelist time on the apps that I actually want to allow gcm to wake up, like waylaidwanderer added to Power Nap recently :)... and if you figure out how to do that, maybe some amplify kind of limits on how often they are allowed to do so ?

Sorry in advance if these kind of changes are impossible or a silly amount of work hehe, I realise I have asked you to incorporate functions from 3 different apps which just feels wrong :).. still, ask not get not or something :P

Feel free to ignore this, and keep up the good work, honestly one of my favourite android apps !.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bifr0st:
Hey!

I have a Sony Xperia p and by the way the screen is black no touch no sense.

When I plug the charger the Notification Led works.

I can enter to fast mode and flash mode, so the question is, there is any way to rescue some data inside the internal memory ? Via ADB Shell, Flash tool....

PD: When I enter to flash mode , after one or two minutes, the phone restarts.

PD2: I can't repair this, because I can't find a replacement.

PD3: My phone doesn't have warranty.

PD4: I just want some data .

Also when I turn normally on the phone and plug to the computer, there show me MTP media, but I can't access to the phone. Any idea ?

Thanks !
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] jss2:
Hello folks,

My Pixel arrived today, and the first thing that I did was unlock the bootloader.

I've only ever owned Nexus devices (gnex, nexus 5, and the nexus 5x), and I did the old fastboot oem unlock (Yes, I booted into android first, toggle the "OEM unlocking" first, and then booted into the fastboot to unlock the bootloader).

Only after I spent some time setting up the phone the way I like it, I remembered that last year there was a change for the Nexus 6P and 5X. fastboot flashing unlock.

Can someone tell me what exactly the difference is between "oem unlock" and "flashing unlock". Everything went smoothly and my bootloader is unlocked, but is it going to cause issues down the road because I did not run the "flashing unlock" command?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] doody:
I've been using my Hermes and now my Kaiser on my T-Mobile Web'n'Walk connection (same SIM). I have the GPRS connection on all the time, and push email working, but randomly (sometimes after a short time, sometimes after a few hours) the connection seems to be dead.

The G indicates that it's still connected, vxUtil pings to www.google.co.uk works, but nothing else works (syncing, web browsing, etc). This is really strange and turning the connection off/on doesn't fix it - I have to actually put it in flight mode and re-enable the phone (which gets irritating quickly).

Has anyone else encountered this problem?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] doody:
Just want to add that IE shows "Locating..." (which I assume is the DNS lookup) and then "Opening..." and just gets stuck there... while ActiveSync just keeps spinning forever and gives up after a while. Ping still works.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jaygriggs:
I had tmobile edge wit a lot of bars and never had a problem infact nowim with att and the problem only happens when I have 3 bars or less. not when I have more
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] doody:
It doesn't seem to be related to reception... I could be sitting at my desk with full reception and it would just stop working randomly. If there's low reception I would expect the connection to re-establish itself after I get better reception.

The most weird thing is that PING works but not the actual data transfers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] amsub:
I've had this problem with my Vodaphone 1615. I work in a rural area and cannot get above 2 bars in my office. I have used Kaiser Tweaks to change the registry so that the connection drops when it isn't being used. This isn't ideal as it takes a few seconds to reconnect every time I want to use the data connection but at least it doesn't hang. Before I was soft-resetting to reset the connection which takes a lot longer.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Slide:
@doody

I have exactly the same problem with my intenet connection when i use PocketCM Keyboard!

Without PocketCM Keyboard the Intenet Connection works very fine.

Are you use PocketCm Keyboard?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] doody:
Hmm interesting, but I don't have PocketCM keyboard, and I've never installed it before!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjam:
i have the same issue with t-mobile. (uk)

very annoying when using gps tracking software. i think i had it with my last win mob phone so it's not kaiser specific.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] doody:
I've had it on my Hermes and now my Kaiser. I'm wondering whether it's a T-Mobile specific problem?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjam:
certainly seems like it could be our network. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] wensing:
I have the same issue with T-Mobile NL.

After a 1 hour connection the connection stops and must be restarted.

Sometimes I must even do this by stopping and starting the Phone in CommManager.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjam:
Not sure if this is related but i have had a few messages pop up saying that i need to end the current call to connect to the internet (something like that).

The strange thing is, no call was in progress. Weird.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Ephemeral:
I've seen a similar problem, I think. I'm soo new to the this data on the move milarky (I'd probably still be on dial up if I wasn't such a game nut) that I wasn't sure if it was human error, but sometimes the icon would show E with the arrows and neither explorer or google maps mobile would seem to be to connect. A soft reset would resolve the problem.

I'm on O2 btw.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] oscarsalgar:
same problem here

I've noticed the same problem when i'm on a bus or a car, listening to streaming radio or using google maps. connection hangs every 20-30 min. but I still can see the "E" with four bars. Sometimes it appears to happen when I receive an e-mail or SMS

It happens also when i'm not moving, but it' less common

Do you think this is a netwok thing? It's very annoying for me to disconnect-reconnect while on the road...

thanks

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dratsablive:
Speaking of unlocked, it seems there are some that think when you buy the phone 'unlocked" it means the bootloader is unlocked. I have never received an unlocked phone where the bootloader is unlocked. It's just "Network Unlocked."

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinjector:
Yes, I understand, that's what I'm looking for. I want something network-indepdendent. I've had Verizon for like 10 years now, and I've been holding onto it tooth & claw because I have an original grandfathered-in unlimited data plan. You can't beat the tower coverage (I live in the boonies), but I'm sick of the high bill. My work provides me with a Sprint S7, but I'm sick of the bloatware & ads, but coverage sucks ass. I want a phone that's squeaky clean, no bloatware, no adware, and one that's easy to root, so I can uninstall & install WTF I want (especially Adaway) . Although, if I do get one that's squeaky clean, I may not care about unlocking the bootloader (for Cyanogenmod etc), but I'd still like to have the option. The reason I settled on the 6P is because a trusted uber-geek friend of mine told me the Google devices come "squeaky clean" aka without bloatware or adware.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VersusMe_:
Not anymore as it is reported that Google removed it from its site now that it has moved on to the Pixel branding. However, the nexus is an unlocked phone by nature so you can get it from Amazon unlocked.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cut Right Sharpening:
This is solved.

The Phone Carrier found the solution and sent me a text.

As many others in many other places suspect, It is an APN issue. To me it looks like Samsung has made some assumptions about what the APN setting should be for different carriers and simply loads them in as part of the update. The sets the Network Operators to select automatically. Sometime this only gets close enough that the phone only makes call but not SMS or mms. sometimes SMS works too but many time the mms setting fail.

This is the USA solution for those using Straight Talk

Settings --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names -->> you should already have a Straight Talk

If you don't you will have to call the Tech Line for the complete list as this maybe somewhat device specific.

Change the following.

Name: Straight Talk

APN: RESELLER

PROXY: not set

PORT: not set

User name: not set

Password: not set

Server: not set

MMSC: http: //mmsc .mobile.att.net

MMS PROXY: proxy mobile. att. net

MMS PORT: 80

MCC: 310

MNC410

AUTH TYPE: not set

MMS APN TYPE: default.mms.supl

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN Roaming: IPv4/IPv6

Ok,

I did the OTA Update to Build Number MMB29K.T815YDVU2BPG5 ,,, Baseband version T815YDVU2BPE5 and mms has died.

Cannot send. If I try it takes 15-20 minutes for it to fail and give the failed message.

If I am sent an mms I get a message showing a download arrow and when I tap it, it takes about 5 minutes to get the "DOWNLOAD FAILED" message.

Things I have tried:

Checked APN setting with carrier. ---- They were correct

Deleted all other APN's from the system. ---- >> No CHANGE

Set APN protocol(s) to IPv4/IPv6 (carrier said it would be OK) ---->> NO CHANGE

Set Chrome to be the DEFAULT BROWSER ----->> NO CHANGE

Tried it in SAFE MODE ----->> still no mms send

The above should have done the next one but still tried the next one.

Deleted ALL other apps that had mms permissions--->> NO CHANGE

Things I have not tried:

Complete reset. Research says sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it works for a few hours and then mms fails again. Really big hassle.

Trying to ROLL BACK. Nothing about this looks easy or something a person without pretty high level knowledge and skills and access to a really good computer should attempt. This is especially true since I have one of the more unusual versions. The SM-T815Y (GSM LTE with a SIM card) and none of the other variations that have full phone capability were supposed to be available in the USA. Info for any version that isn't GSM LTE is probably useless since the hardware will be different. I get no WARRANTY SERVICE from Samsung. Cannot even register it with them. To get the original OS I have to download from foreign sites with all the perils that involve.

Hoping some else has some ideas I haven't tried short of a master reset.

[General Questions and Answers] nitramus:
Using HTC 10 I have 2 usb hubs right now that lets me simultaneously charge and sync but will only slow charge like my aukey with power delivery (PD). I see some anker premium hubs with pass-through charge but the reviews are mixed. Others like Anker USB 3.0 7-Port Hub with 1 BC 1.2 Charging Port have a dedicated sync and charge port but is BC 1.2 and I don't think htc 10 has bc 1.2

Any suggestions for a usb hub that will sync and fast charge simultaneously?

[Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers] focus-pocus:
Just got my Android Yoga Book. Fantastic piece of hardware. The best tablet I put my hands on in a while.

However, I do notice uneven color temperature on the screen: right side (where YogaBook logo is located) is slightly colder (looks more bluish), than the left side (which is hence warmer or yellowish). It's not huge, but I can definitely notice. It's most visible on the white background. I'm trying to figure out, if I can live with it...

How are your screens? :rolleyes:

I am pretty picky, and almost on all recent devices (MSI laptop, Moto X smartphone) I had to go through a couple of RMA exchanges, until I was given a screen, that satisfied me... I saw such issues even on the most expensive iPads, but my girlfriend says I'm just crazy... :confused:
