When I had Opera mini or mobile, not sure which one, installed previously the mobile dslreports test would say too fast a connection. Running one of their normal test would result in 9k plus. I was like WTF then read they resend the pages.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Soundy106:
That's because the in initial tests (up to 100k file), the files are too small to get an accurate reading. It should give you another page from there, with larger (up to 1MB) files.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] inothome:
That was with the 1MB test.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] gc14:
Same happened with me using Opera Mini....it is true what you said...it's because they resend the pages. Even with the 1mb test, with opera mini I would get the Too Fast error. I'm just pissed I'm getting such crappy speeds when I run it with PIE...like I said, my area has reva coverage...

P.S. Anyone using verizon should NOT change their dns settings suggested in this thread as it WILL keep you from getting it to work...EVEN if you have the latest registry edits and fixes for MMS...keep DNS set as auto if you want MMS

Will this work on Sprint? It does not seem to work for me. I can not navigate to any sites when I enter in those DNS servers.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] aXiMus:
I am running using OpenDNS servers for DNS.

Free public DNS with known malware blacklist.

208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Very good dns servers www.opendns.com.

I don't about you folks, but I think a TCPWindow of 65536 is too big for EVDO or 1X because if the packet is corrupt you have to resend a 64K packet, this could be a huge reason for delays, I am running 32768 or 32K, a little more over head but in the event of a retransmission your only resending 32K. If your running WiFi only TCPWindowSize of 64K or even 128K maybe a good idea.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] grinchstyle:
Having the same issues over here. Pages CAN NOT load up when I make any type of DNS Server change. I think I might be missing a step here or something. I cannot get ICS or WMWIFIROUTER to work either. I am able to ping known public adresses from the tethered PC, but I cant resolve IP addresses. This is strictly a DNS Server problem and it takes forever for pages to Locate.... Also, when I run the ##DATA#, I am unable to EDIT these DNS Servers (Primary Home Servers): 68.28.121.76, 68.28.113.76. Any help would be appreciated on this. FYI I am having the same issues with Chem2's and DCD's latest roms.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] grinchstyle:
No one else having this problem? It seems to be strictly a DNS problem for me as my pocket pc and laptop can access public IP's just fine. Looks like Sprint is preventing me from using other dns servers on its network. The phone cannot find a page when I change the settings. I'm stuck with the area3.spcsdns.net DNS Servers and they really LAG :(. Bandwidth wise, I'm doing great, getting like 900K down... but its of no use if you cant access web pages.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] M9x3mos:
I have been doing some research on this phone lately and was wondering if lineage is possible on this phone as it soon will become my backup phone.

From everything I read, it looks like a custom recovery is not possible with this model.

And it looks like from the official lineage site that a custom recovery is required to install it.

Does that mean there is no way to use lineage as a custom rom on this phone? I am assuming so at this point. Any input you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hello folks!

I have a Yoga book (Android version). Due to only one usb port in our Yoga Book there's no possibility to connect peripherals and charging the device at the same time. After googling i got to know that there are several attemps to get an USB hub with otg and charging function working.... And the results are very diverse.

Has someone of you successfully got OTG and charging at the same time working like with a cable or dock?:confused:

I tried this one here which only charged the Yoga Book. No OTG function at all....

it can also work doe android but can be tricky. try putting it first to the charger (around 2 minutes to activate the electronic stuff inside( before attaching it to the micro usb port of the android tablet. it worked for me with my Nvidia shield tablet.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] lrph328:
First time posting on XDA so Hi!

I love my mate 9, however its been around 6 months since i bought it and have not recieved updates, my version is MHA-L09C212B118, which is from Unefon carrier. Becasue i want to ensure timely updates, what's the best course to recieve them?. Will changing firmware lead to timely updates?. Also will changing firmware debrand the phone?(everyone hates bloatware).

Hope i can get some help, thanks!
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] 5[Strogino]:
According my experience, you have to rebrand onto world ROM (C432).

Carrier's models are updating very rare or even never...

For MHA-L09C212 on HiCloud are 3 ROMs (only 2 builds). Both are OTA, not Full ROMs.

For MHA-L09C432 there is full stack of ROMs (OTA and FullOTA)

But notice that you can lost some specific mobile operator's functional if rebrand from carrier version to world. If you are not using special services from Unefon, so don't worry.

Warning number 2 - cause HiCloud doesn't have any FullOTA ROM for MHA-L09C212, so you you can't get back to carrier's version after rebranding.

[General Questions and Answers] nekrosmsk:
hey guys after long struggle with my zenfone 2 after replacing the battery, display, simtray, and microphone only to get it broken due to rain water damage after a few months I wanna get a new phone. but I don't wanna spend more than 250€. so I found several china phones and really want your opinion cz I can't decide and the ratings and comments are all fake users.

xiaomi redmi note 4x cmcc version. all great at this phone but it has ****ty micro usb connector still no type c .. and 5mp frontcam hm..

elephone p8. 6 ****in GB ram. awesome features as well. but also no type C

umidigi z1 pro awesome features AND type C BUT mediatek cpu..

wileyfox swift 2x AMAZING DESIGN, TYPE C, Snapdragon CPU..

BUT these are all china phones except the wileyfox it's british..

SOO I guess I could cope with micro usb IF it's good quality. tho I prefer type C it's best invention in phones so far.

QUESTION: What would you suggest me? What experience have you made if you own one of these how is the quality? and I'm not talkin about buttons or wackling sim trays but the hardware.. Is a lower snapdragon cpu better than a high end mediatek cpu? the prices of these all are ridiculous cheap so which one is the best quality? I don't wanna get a phone like the **** zenfone 2 again where everything ****s up after 2 years and the hardware quality inside is pure ****.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
The same thing happens in safe mode. I suspect it has more to do with the fact that I recently opened the back cover to replace the USB connector and left speaker. Maybe I have disturbed contacts or some cooling components on the mainboard.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Did you disturb the heat sink on the cpu?If you did you will need some heat sink compound to mount it properly to the heat sink.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
I run geekbench with the cover open and as the tablet was heating up I touched the backs of all mainboard parts and it appears that the part that gets hot is where the USB charger cable plugs into it. So I am guessing that this is related to the incident when I apparently "fried" the USB charger by plugging it into a malfunctioning USB hub. I changed the USB charger and its connector, but I guess this did not help.

I could change the mainboard if I could find one cheap. Gosh, those things are expensive. I see vendors selling them on ebay for well above 100USD, a surprising price for a three year old, used part. Those that are cheaper are sold already defective. For comparison, the mainboards of Samsung Galaxy S5 phone, which was a 2014 device of comparable performance are sold for just 30 bucks.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vecna:
try to resolder the USB connector, if there is bad joint, that could cause a larger than expected resistance on the 5v or 0v return, this will act as a heating element at the solder joint.

In normal operation there can be up to 2A flowing through that connector, it will heat +10 degree even when functioning correctly, any extra resistance at that point is dangerous since its almost maxed out on thermal dissapation anyway.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beut:
Actually there's no need to change mainboard. This is a common problem of Samsung tablets when battery connector has cracked solder joints.

This is an example

[IMG="Overheating"]http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/bd94/6rjrc2e61rjfrvr6g.jpg[/IMG]

Anyone knows how to solder can do it within 5 minutes

This is an example for a Tab 3, but similar to any Samsung tablets, most use the same battery connector

How do I change the color of the text on the home screen? My girlfriend's wallpaper is white and so is the text.. how can I change the text to black or another color?
[HTC Excalibur] kc2607:
Edit the XML

I am assuming that the white text on white background is for homescreen only and for rest it is fine. If so, probably you know that homescreen texts are displayed through their associated plugins. Check for homescreen name in Settings> Homescreen and then locate XML file of that homescreen under Application>Home folder. You can do this by connecting your Dash with your computer so that it appears as a logical drive in your computer's file explorer.

Changing foreground text of plugins is farily simple, but should be done carefully and at correct place. Following example shows a time/date/carrier plug in in the XML file.

<!-- Date/Time/Carrier Plugin -->

<plugin clsid="{E09043DF-510E-4841-B652-388316977A7A}" name="carrier" height="78">

<clock>

<time font-weight="bold" fgcolor="#000000" font-size="30" valign="top" halign="left" mode="24" y="53" x="57" />

<date font-weight="normal" fgcolor="#000000" font-size="19" valign="top" halign="left" mode="short" y="60" x="125" />

</clock>

</plugin>

In this example, foreground color for the plug in is set to black (via a hex color code for black which is #000000, in your case it should be white i.e. #FFFFFF currently on your Dash). Change that to #000000 and save XML file. Do not change anything else. Save the XML. Now see your homescreen. Plugin text for the changed color should now be in black. Accordingly, you can do it for all of them.

There is more to it - all through XML editing, if you want to change color scheme for your entire phone.

Let me know how it went.

Cheers,

KC
[HTC Excalibur] suprajztwenty:
ok a much easier solution...download homescreen builder. you can take a favorite homescreen xml file and open it with this program (so you wont have to start from scratch if you want to be quick about it) there are plenty of options that let you change colors and positions of your homescreen items, you even have the option of switching homescreen apps or adding more. try google and search homescreen builder for smartphone. oh, and as for which files go where, the program will let you select your own custom background pic which will save it with the xml file, you need to place both of them in :mobile based device/application data/home (you can also find your stock xml homescreens here to edit if you actually like them.) if youd like to change the color of your start bar and menu highlight download basehueexpress and install the cab to your phone- the program is very easy to figure out. one note, you should verify that your homescreen DIMENSIONS are 320x240(click file and setup) have fun, hope it helps.
