[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ziggy1001:
So how does the open network you are connected to see you?
[Nexus One General] jdd48:
Maybe it's just me, but battery life seems to be considerably better with Froyo. Anyone else notice the same?
[Nexus One General] te_quiero_forever_girl:
Same here ! Much better indeed

I use cookie home tab to reorder my 4x4 taskbar on the homepage, but can't seem to remember how to swap the order of bottom slider icons (i.e. settings, contacts, internet).

Can anyone help me out? Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
You must be using Sense 2.5, so it's: Settings>Personalize>Home screen tabs. There you can select which show and can drag them into position.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stenuine:
thanks so much. these transparent sliders and black/white cab backgound can make things interesting to se (with the white menu text). I really appreciate the help.
[Nexus One General] gsvnet:
One of my main complaints with the Nexus One in general is 3G reception. It's not where it should be when compared to other phones (G1, myTouch, etc.). How are people fairing with 3G reception after the Froyo update? Is it looking better?
[Nexus One General] LoyalServant:
No change for me.
[Nexus One General] gsvnet:
Thanks for your input. I do believe the issue is related to antenna placement, i.e. the design of the phone, so I guess this is never really going to be corrected.

It's not a major issue though depending on your area, I suppose.
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
My reception has improved, actually, an area where I previously got no signal - at lease gives me 1 or 2 bars without going out. That was only in that certain spot though, it was never a problem anywhere else.
[Nexus One General] gsvnet:
Is that simply EDGE signal or 3G signal?
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
No change for me. Still crap reception at my house =\

(-100 dB to -105 dB)

:(:(
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Oh sadly its EDGE.. but I mean, its something for an area that usually would simply be nothing.
[Nexus One General] Marine6680:
I have slightly better signal as well.
[Nexus One General] bedwa:
Comes and goes... more fluctuation than before...... other than that, no real problems. Though, I have noticed I can upload a few things with upload links online now.... only music, pics and voice recorder eclipse, but here's to a developer making (or updating) a file browser that includes a plugin for the browser to upload anything... ;)
[Nexus One General] dudebro:
I actually had a real problem with reception when I never used to.

constant edge connection when I always had 3G or H.

after flashing froyo my reception is better and I'm on 3G a lot more often like I used to be.
[Nexus One General] Alleviate:
My 3G has always sucked on my Nexus.. even at my home I have to use Wi-Fi.

When I try to use 3G a lot of times the icon is present but I don't think I have any connection because if I go to the market it says something like "A network error has occured, retry or cancel" and also, I can't refresh the FaceBook feed.

Does anyone have this problem? Or is there a way to fix it?
[Nexus One General] BlackElvis79:
Mine have gone up some...

<<--Tethering
[Nexus One General] e4604:
noticeably improved here, thou no more "H" doesnt seem to hiccup anymore

p.s loving the froyo so far, better voice clarity also :cool:, only thing i miss is trackball wake
[Nexus One General] Alleviate:
How do you guys reach such high speeds :(? The highest my 3G DL speeds have hit is 600 kb/s pre-FroYo :(...
[Nexus One General] bobdude5:
much better reception for me
[Nexus One General] JHaste:
My house is borderline edge/3g and i would say it has gotten worse... im seeing more GPRS lately but w/e I use wifi while i am at home anyway...
[Nexus One General] senwebtek:
Mine 3g actually seems worse after updating to froyo/2.2. I'm getting edge in places I used to get 3g but I will do some further testing

[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
i have better reception, at least on edge. now, i can actually get a signal in my apartment, most of the time, where as before, it was hardly ever.
[Nexus One General] r34p3rex:
Everything is working the same, if not better for me :D AT&T nexus one btw
[Nexus One General] sheek360:
the new froyo radio is 4.06 and its way better then 4.04, atleast in my personal case. signal is stronger and for once I am actually seeing a little 3g indoors.
[Nexus One General] bluehaze:
My reception is better with gsm prl auto set but the phone still has that issue with holding it the wrong way making it drop to edge instead of 3g when you are on the edge of 3g coverage. It can be annoying at times but I think it's something we're going to have to learn to live with, I think most phones do this when they don't have a strong 3g signal. Outside my house though everything is great can hold the phone anyway I want without losing 3g so it doesnt bother me so much as I use wifi in my house anyway.
[Nexus One General] temperbad:
Yes most phones do this. I took a video of my tp2 doing it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtube_gdata&v=5Eo7uFtAKDY

Its tmobile not the phone. ..
[Nexus One General] sheek360:
with the froyo radio, 4.06; I had to set it to wcdma preferred. i found that my data was about 20% faster. tested it over and over again. what do you guys think? Signal strength was about the same, fluctuated between 105-110 decibels in my living room.

At the end of the day, I'd like to know what each option in the "preferred network type" table does for the phone. Can someone give me a crash course?

I know wcdma only = 3g only and if theres an opportunity to go to edge the phone will just lose all signal till another 3g signal presents itself.

unknown, up until now; does nothing for me. at times it makes me think i have a stronger signal but it could be placebo.

what about the other options?

EDIT, the unknown option brings me back to wcdma preferred as soon as i return to the screen.
[Nexus One General] manfly9884:
Much better for me, one full bar actually.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
I'd say it seems a bit better. I didn't suffer poor reception in the first place, but SpeedTest.net results are better in my house.
[Nexus One General] eskimoroll:
It's much better for me. I used to get anywhere from 500-800 kbs with the occassional 1.2MBs. Now I'm upwards of 4MBs. Granted I think T-mobile must have just recently upgraded my network as well since 3g was down over the past week or so.
[Nexus One General] NismoDrift240:
Same here. Had 4.04 radio with CM 5.0.6 and the 60-ish second drops in data (3g up arrow stuck) were getting worse and worse to where I almost asked myself "Will it Blend?"

Now I run the 4.06 that came with Paul's pre-root Froyo and am in heaven again. Solid data connection now.

[Nexus One General] MaxiJavi:
For me Froyo has completely revolutionized 3G usage.

The new radio gives me MUCH better signal and speeds that before.

I get a lot of marginal coverage here ... A massive improvement.

I have one question.. Please help..

Is there any way to turn off the automatic data connections (such as HSDPA, 3G, GPRS, etc.)?

What I want is that I can manually turn on/off this data connections when I want to use it or not.. Why? Because there's a time when I use Wi-Fi to browse internet using Opera Mobile, then my data connections turn on automatically (I don't realize this) and it cost me a lot of money..=(

Thanks..

i recently bought a tp2 with a 16gb card from a very nice n helpful guy from here. Hi JV. i am having a little problem with the memory card in that the only way i have successfully transfered data in working form has been via active sync. all other ways i have tried, phone mem to card transfer, card reader, download cabs to microsd dont work. can anyone shed any light on this? installing to microsd doesnt seem to work anymore either
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tcSPVm3100:
i copied a film across and it would play in coreplayer for 2 minutes before freezing and if you try skipping ahead to another point in the movie it says the file is corrupted and wont allow me to skip
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tcSPVm3100:
does anyone have an idea what i can do to sort this problem out? generally cabs will not install or download successfully to the memory card. the card itself is 1.2gb full of 16.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Not all 16 gb cards are the same. Try formatting it; if that doesn't work, the card is probably not of good enough quality.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] marduk79:
definately try formatiing. Just make sure you save whatever it is you have somewhere else.
[Desire General] tsekh501:
The European/Asian version (A8181) won't work with AT&T 3G network, and the Australian version (A8183, Telstra branded) will work with AT&T 3G network as long as you are in the 850Mhz coverage area. From what I've heard, 850Mhz coverage includes all major cities. While I can't comment for your area, I can tell you that my A8183 works perfectly fine with AT&T 3G network in Chicago. AT&T has also stated that they are migrating all their 3G network to 850Mhz, leaving 1900Mhz only of EDGE.

Anyway, all of the info above can be found in other threads, what I want to add here is that Australian Dollars are dropping like CRAZY and it is now the great opportunity for you AT&T US users to buy the Desire from Australia.

Every US sellers have been selling this AT&T 3G compatible model on eBay for at least USD700, some even over USD800. There is this Australian eBay seller has been selling a few Desire for AUD700 each, and (although not listed in the auction, but you can ask him) he charges around AUD50 to ship to the US using EMS.

I bought mine from this seller around two weeks ago, with a total of roughly AUD 750, which, at the exchange that time, was about USD 700. Two weeks later, today, I was curious and searched "Telstra Desire" on eBay again and found that this seller still has a few A8183 model for sale, again at AUD 700 each. The difference? Now AUD has fallen SO much that AUD 750 costs only about USD 620~630... So if I had waited for two months, I could have saved 70 bucks!

Anyhow, I wrote this just to let you AT&T users to know that you don't have to pay $800 to get a AT&T compatible Desire. Just go to eBay and serach "Telstra Desire" and you will find the Australian seller I am talking about. He shipped pretty quickly, and with EMS if only take a few days to come to the US. The only problem I had in the process was that my phone was held by the US custom for a week, FOR NO REASON! When my phone arrived, the package showed no sign that it was inspected by the custom. Perhaps the custom was just too lazy and decided to take a week off processing packages.

Btw, in case you wonder, roms that work on the A8181 model work fine on the A8183. I followed the rooting procedure on Modaco forum, and installed Modaco custom rom r3 on my A8183 without any problem.
[Desire General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Yoz

Hah I think we think alike dude cause I got one from the same seller if I think you know? This the same guy?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320534188327

$578.06 + $49 Ship = $627 shipped for me ($49 Australia to STL, MO)

Not bad at all, especially for people that thought only option was an n1.

only 2 left now...

check the dudes Telestra's 850mhz HD2 also.. cheap! (Approximately US $660.64)

Best part is I get to make a nice chunk of that back with the sale of my old mint 8125 wizard and 8925 kaiser. cheers dude
[Desire General] tsekh501:
Yup I bought my Desire from him.

Don't know how he get the Desire so cheap though, he is selling them cheaper than Telstra sells them. Before I bought the Desire from him, I was going to ask my friend in Australia to get the Desire from Telstra for me. But then Telstra was (and still is) selling it for AUD 779 (+ tax) w/o contract

http://www.telstra.com.au/shop/personal/Mobile-MobilePhones-HTCDesire?SMSESSION=NO

which was too for me.

I pick that Desire over the N1 because (a) I don't like the track ball, (b) I prefer physical button, and (c) I think the Desire looks better (personal preference). I have experience with rooting and flashing custom roms, and I knew the hardwares of the N1 and the Desire are similar enough that roms for one can be ported to the other within days. So even though I knew that the N1 would get new updates quicker, while the Desire has Sense (which I really love), this is not really an issue for me.

But I wasn't ready to pay $800 for (a)-(c) above, and luckily I found this seller on eBay. Given how cheap the AUD is these days, this is now an even sweeter deal.
[Desire General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Sweetness

Well that's great news im stoked to get mine then. I checked out the r3 release over at modaco looks mint as well will root and give that a shot after a week or so. You liking it how much bloatware in the telestra rom just curious?

I'm coming from my super old 8125 wizard (didn't need to upgrade) to this, so it should be rather sweet. I got mine out of contract cause i'm not on data plan and I don't need it (but have the option down the road) They will not add data to your service either if you're out of contract (4yrs out of contract here hah) many people have misconception of that.

Anyways it used to be even more greater savings it appears check out some of the feedbacks dude sold some HD2s for like $520 unlocked NIB. craziness gotta love those aussies on 850 data! :P

AS for how he gets them so cheap, I doubt he's able to sell with the auctions, just some copy/paste specs. I'm sure most people abroad think it's a scam. (Obviously not if you got yours, and he has 98% positive feedback at 238) Took me a good 15 mins to check it out, I was debating.

The guys name is SHIAUYI MA. Non-US verified on PAYPAL though so good to go completely safe. I will say i've been trying to get ahold of them with no response besides the paypal invoice. (had correct shipping and address though so looked good)
[Desire General] BA_Flash_GOD:
well

now there's only 1 left in the guys inventory, someone else jumped on it. The items in the pics are actual it appears check out the telestra symbol, as well the guy seems to sell a lot of gaming consoles and other tech to AU only with pics on the same wood table and such.

It was $760AU ($627USD) on my Paypal invoice yesterday morning ($60AU for shipping = $49USD) so yeah you're right tsekh501, as of today Aussie rates are great for us if you paid $750AU and it was actually $700 just 2 months ago.

I think i'll even take it over to the local AT&T and ask when the desire's coming out for us AT&T users :P

I have always had windows mobile, but have been fortunate of enough the past two months or so to use a lot of the recent Android builds for Kaiser, using donut and eclair 2.1 (at least runs well) I know the OS pretty well now. I dig it and was ready for the real thing. let's put that extra 64mb of ram over the N1 to use! Cheers

*Update

Seller responded last night, and it appears 4 more were sold as well after posting the link on here. Glad to have helped anyone out snagging one for cheap.

"Dear atom311,

Yes, It is how much australia post charges for int' express post to US.

Normally it takes 1-3 business days.

And your item should be ready to go out on Monday.

Thanks

- yoyopopo1214"
[Desire General] fakts13:
i was one of the guys that got this. the seller seems a bit hard to get a hold of, but i will reserve any judgement until i get the phone. i asked him when he was shipping the phone and could supply me with a tracking number and he replied that he shipped via int' express post and would follow up with a tracking number, which strikes me as odd because it shouldn't have been very hard to have included the number in that message. i'm sure he's a legit seller, i think he just lacks some customer service skills. maybe i'm just getting antsy because my kaiser got smoked over the weekend and i need a phone.
[Desire General] tsekh501:
He is legit. I bought one form him and has been using it very happily since last week.

He doesn't communicate very well though. It took him more than a day to get back to me with the shipping quote, and when my package got stuck in LAX custom (which was NOT the seller's fault, btw) I emailed him to see if he knew what was happening but he didn't reply at all.

The phone is legit and the shipping is very quick (minus the stuck at custom part, which can happen to anything shipped from outside the US. If the package had gone through the custom within a day, tha phone could have arrived in 3 days), however.
[Desire General] fakts13:
yeah, before buying i went through his feedback and figured he's a legit seller, just wish he could work on his service skills a bit more.... oh well, i guess that's the price to pay for getting something at a cheaper price. can't reallly expect too much seeing as he's selling for less than telstra. if you don't mind me asking where in the US are you located at tsekh501?
[Desire General] tsekh501:
Chicago, but somehow the phone landed at LAX.
[Desire General] BA_Flash_GOD:
Yoz

got mine today, perfect mint condition, NIB, never opened like stated. from Australia to St. Louis (Middle of the USA) in 4 days... sweetness! Anyways all is mint, dude is legit, I suggest keeping him on your favorites pages, see what he gets now and then, could actually make some dough in the US. Anyways, Im more than happy, they come like stated. 2GB SD for Telestra.

They'll probably all land at LAX of course, its the biggest and closest port to our Aussie pals ;)

btw custom report shows David Huang as the shipper for anyone wondering
[Desire General] carlos_polanco:
Nice!

Hello guys,

I bought a HTC HD2 to him on monday and I did a little research of the seller. That's amazing I got all your comments in xda :D

His communication is not that well but I hope it arrives before next monday.

Sorry this is not the right forum for my experience :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] darchstar:
Hey guys, i kinda felt bad for you guys, how you guys still don't have a true aosp build (minus the crappy froyo sdk which isn't built for any target). so i decided to make you guys a kernel that should work on your phones. i'm only gunna supply the zImage for you guys, if you want to know how i got the touchscreen to work, all i did was take the drivers/input/touchscreen/synaptics_i2c_rmi.c from cm-kernel and put it into my kernel source. well devs, have fun with this. you guys can now make a real cyanogenmod or aosp rom. This kernel is OC'd at 768 mhz. I'm only gunna supply the zImage, you devs make this work for your roms

Thanks Toastcfh for getting overclock to work on msm7k android devices

[Droid Eris Android Development] firestrife23:
ROFL, have you asked him for source code rather than jumping conclusion? people like you like to stir up drama

By the way I believe he did gave cyanogen credit, when he mention it's from his github....
[Droid Eris Android Development] darchstar:
why would i need to re-release source for your kernel. does that make sense. all i did was edit two files in the source. those files are on toastcfh's github. i don't need to re-release the source. that would be a waste of time and effort. please, if you don't like me, just pm me and we'll settle things.

also, i'm pretty sure this works unless i forgot to recompile your source after i changed the file

has anyone else tried it besides the preteen who blatantly has some sort of bias against me?

so anyone wanna test out the newer zimage?
