I noticed the other day that Paul from modaco posted that even though he lives in an area with NO 3G on any network all of a sudden he has 3G on T-Mobile.

In my home and surrounding areas i can only get GPRS. If i set my phone to force WCDMA it will never connect.

However after seeing Pauls post i tried again and now setting my phone to force WCDMA i can get one and two bars on HDSPA...

How very strange. It's great though because i use it for web browsing on my pc and i can download roms quickly enough.

Should maybe try a speedtest?
[Desire General] huwwatkins:
Pauls new coverage might be a side effect of the tmobile/three network consolidation/expansion. If he has tmob coverage now he probably has 3 too.

I've noticed a better signal recently - sometimes getting H at home. Can I ask which area of Hull you're in? :)
[Desire General] tommo123:
i've tried it and get 'H' at home now (liverpool city centre) with t-mob. although, i just gopt the 3GB pack turned on on Sun. was on the slower 1GB before that
[Desire General] aindow:
T mobile are to start roaming on to the Orange network and vice versa as part of their merger which may have something to do with it.

[HD2 General] Demon_man:
I guess its kind of network related, so I have found out that where I live it doesn't matter where I go My Location is not going to work the cell towers just don't have it turned on or support it, what I want to know is there anything I can do like moan at them request it or anything like that who would I contact, I'm on Virgin UK so would I contact Virgin them selves or would I go to T-mobile seen as apparently Virgin uses T-mobiles Cell Towers,

any advice would be great or if any one knows where t point me in the right direction will be much appreciated:D
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
...BUMP* :p
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
really no one??
[HD2 General] M3XICAN5:
Maybe try running QuickGPS and see if that helps.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
no as my first post states, its doesn't work at all in the town where i live been confirmed by 4 network operators trying to find out who i can ***** at to try and get it working round here lol
[HD2 General] M3XICAN5:
Well the HD2 does GPS and aGPS so it doesnt matter if the cell towers do or dont support it aslong as you can connect to a satellite. And what program are you trying to use?
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
well quick gps has been updated, agps is turned on, i can get a lock on google maps and have full H signal, yet when i update my weather in the town i live

"Connection Error, there was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. retry?"

now if i go out of my town say 5 miles it will connect first time locate me and update the weather. strange hey, spoke to 15 people that have smart phones and not one of them in this town ever got the weather to update. we all have to use the Weather city editor to add our town:confused:

oh yeah i have tried with wifi on its own, H on its own, gprs on its own, gps, no gps, not one combo works around here,
[HD2 General] sherlockpwnz:
I don't think it's a connection issue. I see that in some small towns in my area you can't get any weather updates for certain spots and it's not cuz of the connection it's because there are no weather dopplers or weather antenna's recording any weather data.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
kinda of my point in the first post lol, just wondering if there is anyone i could contact to find out how there could be?
[HD2 General] M3XICAN5:
Maybe its the weather city editor? I know on my Tmo HD2 it added my town after the GPS located me.
[HD2 General] sherlockpwnz:
at that point my friend I think you would have to contact a weather station and find out if they have anything or contact the advanced tech support to even find out if they have any data at all for weather in that area. other than that your up a creek without a weather report lol
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
it doesn't work with or without weather city editor so it isn't that, I no why it isn't working that's not what im posting for lol

So contacting T-mobile wouldn't really help, I'll get some info from a weather station or something, got a week off see what I can do lol, keep ya posted

Hi,

New to this forum but have read here a bit from time to time.

I have downloaded the compass app from the android market, and apart from having to calibrate the compass very often, the compass needle jumps to point at the trackball/base of the phone every time menu, home, or back is pressed.

The harder i press, the closer to the base it points. Could someone test this and see if they have the same issue? Simply download compass, and while watching the needle, press and hold 'menu' and see what happens.

Curious if this is a manufacturing flaw or if i should have it replaced.

Thanks.
[Legend General] sz1a:
Anyone? bump bump
[Legend General] brad2332:
which compass? There are quite a fee apps.... the top free one?

-------------------------------------

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
[Legend General] sz1a:
Yeah, top free one with the blue compass logo. This one to be specific:

When you open the app and after calibrating, see if the needle starts moving around when you press or hold the menu button or any other buttons around that area. For me it does a complete 180 if I fully press menu which is kind of weird.. Same thing happens in google maps, the little blue arrow points towards the bottom when pressing menu, even if just pressing over the key without activating it.
[Legend General] brad2332:
Mine does seem to move but only slightly not that extreme... any magnets on your fingers? Lol

As far as I'm aware we don't have NaviPanel installed by default - could this be packaged with Froyo possibly?

It's a bit of a leap of logic, but it seems significant that they're choosing 22nd July to launch this when the Froyo rumours seem to be pointing towards the next fortnight. Why else would they wait so long to get a product like this out?

EDIT:

Oops :)

The latest Google Maps came with a separate navigation panel, look for an icon that looks like a blue arrow pointing up. That's what will open automatically.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
Hi all,

I seem to be having a problem with the Enable Always On Mobile Data setting. From my understanding (and certainly what happened in my previous ROM) is that if this is unchecked when the screen was off/phone not in use the G/3G/H connection was disconnected and you could see this when you turned the phone back on and it took a few seconds for the connection to be made.

Since installing VillainRom 10.3 and the latest Modaco rom this is not happening. Whenever the phone is switched on from standby the connection is still on. I have checked the awake time incase something is stopping the phone from sleeping but it seems fine. I have also been through all my apps and checked sync settings to make sure nothing is keeping the connection active but it shouldnt be.

As I have got this on two different roms I am pretty sure its not an isolated case and others must have experienced the same. Has anyone had this problem and is there a fix?

Thanks,

Michael
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2500726:
In my expiriences with Wifi it turns it off when the phone is asleep but the icon still remains for me at least so my guess would be it's the same for 3G etc. And it isn't like it's a huge battery drainer unless you have a weak signal;)

YAY! Post nr. 100 Senior member:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberkid2002:
Yeah, I think its 15 mins for WiFi but have tried leaving it for 3G and its still connected. Difference in Battery is quite substantial to be honest (weak signal area). ~3 days compared to 1 day
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2500726:
Hmm that sucks then... Will tell you if I find a solution;) There's probably an app for it:)

[HD2 General] geon106:
Hey,

Is there any way you can change the OS from Windows Mobile to another OS? I love the HD2 but it can be really sluggish at times that I can only assume to be the OS. I'd love to put Android on it but apparently its not yet been done.

Is there anything else it can be changed to or any way to speed up the phone as even with no background applications running it can slow right down when navigating the phone or writing a text etc

Thanks :)

[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Have you looked over at custom ROM flashing in the ROM Development forum?
[HD2 General] watcher64:
One thing alot of people who have not used a phone that actually Multi-Tasks, seem to miss ...

If you are running an app, hitting the home button does not close the app, it is still running ...

The HD2 and WinMo can really run lots of apps at the same time, and if you get way to many running the phone can feel sluggish ...

I have a friend that has an HD2 got his when I got mine, I got it all slimmed down for him with a custom rom , he still complained about it "Slowing Down" ..

He came from an IPhone, so every time he wanted to leave and app he just hit the home button, the other night he was complaining about his phone being slow I checked the task manager and he had 9 apps running , including 2 games(memory hogs) ..

Even if you do not do a custom rom, at least install a good task manager something like ArkSwitch or along those lines ...

hi im having some probs with my mms, i was wondering if anyone can offer any advice?

im on tmobile uk, if i send an mms to a tmobile number they get it straight away but if i sent one to another network they dont seem to get it :confused: obviously my mms settings must be ok or no1 would get my mms's yeah? so isit just network problems why other ppl arnt getting them? also in the default messaging client, what does the big red exclamation mark mean when sending mms's?

thanks :)

I've noticed similar issues when sending MMS to non Orange contacts (I'm on Orange).

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] archie winnington-ingram:
I don't know what it is, or how to use it. but it seems to be vital for development, can someone please explain it please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wezternator:
It stands for Android Debug Bridge (I believe). It is part of the Android SDK and it used to communicate with the phone in a number of ways, it can get logs of every action performed (for if you set it up correctly you can see every time you touch the screen, where you touched it and if movement was involved in what direction and speed.) it can also be used to have access to Android Terminal (Shell access).

Unless you want to develop or wanting to root etc there is no real need to use it.

Google it there's lots of Information on it.

I can confirm this IS working on a desire 2.1!!!!

I have attached an update.zip that will enable wifi N on any desire running 2.1 and also will update the wifi drivers to the latest drivers.

Have fun!

Works flawless on my MCR rom :D

This is kernel dependant, please download correct file for your kernel!

If yours is not listed please make a post stating your rom and kernel and post your bcm4329.ko from system/lib/modules and I will update this post with a zip for your phone :D

Thanks for different zip's/.ko files go to:

FloHimself

peewster

PablosOne

For tethering use: http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...etail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_2.apk&can=2&q=

UPDATE:

How to make this hack your self if a zip is not available for your Rom:

Take bcm4329.ko from system/lib/modules and open it in a hex editor. Search for 'nmode' and replace it with '-----'. There are 2 instances of this so make sure you replace both.

After that download any 1 of the attached zip's and replace the bcm4329.ko in the zip with the one you just created. Sign the zip and flash!

Also to answer some other questions: changing to WiFi n will NOT make your WiFi faster because you can only be as quick as the slowest link which will be your internet supplier which in most cases is up to 8mb in which case WiFi g is more than capable. Updating to WiFi n is mainly for stability/greater distances from your router.

Also in theory WiFi n will most prob drain more battery than WiFi g but in my zip's there is k newer firmware which is suppose to help in battery drain. I have not personally noticed a difference but as a general rule if your not using WiFi then turn it off! That way theres no battery drain!

I hope this answers some questions for you ;-)
