[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
That's the problem with most devices - the SGS will see the device and it's MAC address when scanning, but won't connect. Usually "0000" gives a very quick refusal, where anything else (the only way I've found to enter a blank PIN is to enter a digit then delete it) gives a rather long wait with "Connecting" then a message telling you it failed to connect.

Most 3rd party apps don't work either, though I've had success with the GamePro app NZTechFreak used - it's the only app I've found on the SGS up to now that does work with bluetooth. I'm pretty confident KeyPro from the same company would work, but I don't have a compatible keyboard to test.

Up to now, i've tried:

Wii remote/classic controller (original) - SGS sees controller, will not pair

Bluetooth "I-Tom" keyboard (ebay) - Despite coming with android drivers, does not work. Same symptoms as other controllers, third party app does not detect nor connect to controller.

Datel Wii Classic Controller - same as Wii controller

Zeemote - Works with GamePro drivers. Zeemote does not pair directly with SGS, it's all handled through the GamePro IME drivers/settings

I'd like to see if a PS3 controller pairs successfully, but from what you've said I doubt it very much :(

e: The app in the post above only has support for some very specific keyboards. By all means try it, I tried each one on my itom keyboard but nothing worked.

[Hero CDMA General] counterbond:
I have a palm pre right now, and there is a bug between the ipod and my pre, it wont let me get any faster speeds than about 100 kbps. Youtube is out of the question. I'm on my 7th pre and thinking about switching to the hero, hoping that it can wifi tether full speeds.

Can anyone give me any info on tethering apple products to the htc hero?
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
The real question is, is it 100kbps, or 100kBps, because there is a very big difference. But yeah, as far as 3G goes, I've never gotten more then 150kBps.
[Hero CDMA General] boydroid:

I tether my hero to my netbook almost daily. I haven't ever had an issue with YouTube videos or anything else unless i was in a poor service area. At 360p the Videos load faster than it plays.

[General Questions and Answers] doffla:
Is it really possible that there is no app wnere you can lock the frequency of mobile to a specific one and see the GSM parameters like ENGWAS asked ???
[General Questions and Answers] Pranksta02:
it is kind of possible to lock frequencies using the *#*#4636#*#* by pressing menu while in the phone info screen and then selecting select radio band. It would be great if someone could design an app something like the nokia nemo/fieldtest app with the ability to easily lock frequency, carrier(uarfcn) and scramble code (psc). apparently the samsung galaxy has these sort of features in built, is it possible to rip it out of a rom and put it on to the desire if a standalone app cant or isnt created? This would save us a heap of time testing bases!

[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:

[General Questions and Answers] aleksb:
You can access the built in FieldTest by using the "Any Cut" app from the market. Open it create shortcut, actions, select FieldTest from the list. This will give you a shortcut on your home screen.

Hope this helps..
[General Questions and Answers] Pranksta02:
Yeah but the samsung software has a much better ability which would help me while testing (work for a telco in aus integrating and upgrading base stations)
[General Questions and Answers] doffla:
the main issue is to be able to lock to a specific frequency of GSM or DSC band or to a specific scrambling code in UMTS and not only to choose GSM or UMTS band

I own both phones and was pleasantly surprised when my hd2 was keeping up with my n1. The hd2 was a little behind on average but it wasn't a big deal. Anyways my n1 is running cm mod and is overclocked so I think its time to send another donate over the amazing devs way. I was using darkstones latest froyo.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] poweroutlet:
Awesome. At least some of the HD2s lag mustcome from the fact that android is running off an SD card and the os can only see about half of our memory. I think we will see some general performance boosts once running from nand. Faster read/write speeds and better latency while using less power. Exciting stuff.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kirpix1:
Hi guys,

I have a sprint touch pro 2 and got the phone frozen for no reason. When I soft reset the phone and got the phone turned on there was an error on the screen writing "Microp version mismatch 0. Please update to the latest firmware." and when the phone screen goes off for power saving purpose I cannot turn the lcd back on using the power button. Then I thought Hard resetting would solve the problem as it would restore to factory settings. but the problem still presents. I searched the forum and found a thread about htc diamond informing the problem is caused by an hardware malfunction related to the sockets on xda developers (showthread.php?t=657514). But couldn't found anything related to touch pro 2. Please help me I cannot use my phone!!! :(

[XPERIA X10 General] apetit:
I just flashed my X10i with 24 firmware. After this my power button stopped working. The phone started showing the menu you get when pressing the power button (without me pressing it) and because of that i turned off the phone. Since that reboot the power button never worked again. I re flashed via SE updater (which installed FW .26 btw) with factory defaults. = Not working. I downgraded with root script to .16 = still not working. This is starting to look like a hardware failure but I'm curious if other people have had the same problem.

Anyone?

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Cpt.Curry:
I just discovered an app on the market, and was overwhelmed, I was waiting for this, its called music mod lockscreen, and when you play music it allows you to have the music from the lock screen, its similar to mixzing's ultimate. All credits go to the dev. Check it out.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] craigacgomez:
Yep, nice app... and it's free... I like it, though I must add...

With CM 6 RC2, kmobs lockscreen music controls let you play/pause/ff/rw, but no album art or song display... and eliotstocker is also developing a cool lockscreen with music controls and display (it's not free, but may cost 1 euro)

Personally, I use WidgetLocker lockscreen (it's not free but it's just $1.99), and I can place widgets like the music widget there... it's quite a neat app...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Cpt.Curry:
ironic, I also use the widget lockscreen app, for widgets, but can you get kmobs lockscreen, play/pause/fwd...with enoms rom....is there like a flash zip file that allows you have those cotrols on any rom...

[Droid Incredible General] nFiniti:
I'm needing this to work. The Droid Incredible to connect to QPST properly. All phones so far have been connecting to QPST as "Surf" something or another. Even if you read up about the Evo and QPST it shows up as SURF and is allowed to be modded any way.

The Droid Incredible, atleast mine shows up as something different and is very lacking in things able to be changed.

The Phone shows up as QCT-6200. And only allows Minimal Changes, Settings, CDMA, System, Roam, Sounds, Features, Phone Book and Data are the only avail. tabs. And even they are limited. I have not changed a thing in any of these with fear of crippling the phone with the wrong settings.

Does anyone know what I can do to get the phone to react with QPST the proper way? Someone on here tried claiming that all the settings of the phone like MIP and stuff like that can be changed with QPST (I know thats its natural function as I have flashed hundreds of phones in my time) but the kid was unwilling to tell me how the phone is able to interact with QPST in order to do so.

Anything I need to change on the phone or within the settings of QPST?
[Droid Incredible General] silverramsrt:
mine shows up as:

FFA/SURF QSD8650 Rev 2.0

I didn't do anything special. just installed drivers from latest htc sync.
[Droid Incredible General] nFiniti:
What version QPST you using? Cause I've been trying and trying and cannot get the phone to load up to QPST as anything other than what I said. If I could get it running the way you do, I'd be soo f'n happy.

I'm on 2.7 Build 301.

I use ##DIAG and then connect USB. And it shows up as QCT-6200.

You can understand why I'd be scared to mess with things if the phone is not connecting properly.

***EDIT*** Well I just upgraded to a newer version, not much newer and it works now! FFA/SURF QSD8650 Rev 2.0! Everything works.

I'm going camping soon, and I need to be reachable 24/7, so I thought maybe a solar charger would work. Has anyone had any experience with these? How is the charge rate?

Any other cheap solutions? A charger that uses batteries would cost too much in batteries.
[Desire Accessories] Ronok:
I tried a cheap eBay solar charger on my previous phone (HTC touch cruise). It was a charger with internal battery. So you could charge it during the day in sunlight and use it to charge your phone at night. At least... in theory. A full solar charge (about 1 week in the sun) gave my phone 10% extra juice :( I haven't tested it with my desire, but I expect it's even worse since the battery capacity is larger.

I'm not an expert, but I think the "mAh" capacity of the solar charger should be a lot higher (like double or more) than the device you're going to charge. For instance, if you connect it to a notebook (with battery capacities from 4000 mAh and up), the power will be succesfully transferred. But even then, I don't think you can fully charge your phone without draining the notebook battery completely. The Desire battery has 1400 mAh.

I would advise to look for better quality (and more expensive) alternatives. Like the solar chargers they use on campers to power a TV or fridge. Especially if you want to be reachable 24/7. If you want an emergency charger to give you enough power to make one phone call a day, a cheap solar charger will be sufficient though.
[Desire Accessories] w.0.o.t:
I'm a new user so I can't post link. But try googling "High Capacity Solar Charger and Battery w/ Flashlight (11200mAh)" and click on the 1st result. Bought that and am very happy with it. the charge rate is almost the same, if not the same, as the wall charger. it's got flashlight and mosquito repellent too. :D

theoretically it can charge the desire from zero to full 8 times before you need to charge it again. but you know it will be lower than that. ;)

if you're looking for a cheaper solution then try googling "Solar Charger USB Hub" and click on the 4th result. but the charge rate will be substantially lower though. hope that helps. :)

No. We're going backpacking. Tents and sleeping bags on our backs and sleeping in the outdoors. <3

Thanks for the links guys. I will check them out. I could attach the charger to my backpack with the cable going into phone which is in my pocket, so I can charge it while we're hiking. I'll look extremely geeky, but it'll work I hope.

I need to be reachable for work. I'm also bringing my laptop with me in case there is an emergency at work. Hurray for tethering!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rollthedice16:
Hi guys,

Ok so I just got my N1(build FRF91) and attempted to root it the other day. Sadly, things did not go well.

I'm pretty sure the bootloader was unlocked fine as when I boot into bootloader mode (trackball and power button method) it says UNLOCKED in pink writing at the top.

Next I went to flash the superboot - I was a bit confused at instructions so I found a video demo on YouTube where I can see what needs to be done.

The instructions on the YouTube video turned out to be wrong..

The instructions at MoDaCo say:

- Download the Superboot zip file above and extract to a directory

- Put your device in bootloader mode - Turn off the phone then press and hold the trackball to enter the bootloader

- MAC - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-superboot-mac.sh' followed by './install-superboot-mac.sh'

I only did the first part that is in bold. When I turned on my phone I have no reception at all and kept getting this warning: "Sorry! Process System is not responding" with the option to either wait, or force close - both did nothing to fix the issue.

I realised my mistake in the superboot process and re-did it making sure to do both parts in bold above. After turning on my phone everything seems to be working! I have reception and everything is ok by the look of it... I turned my phone off then on again just to make sure everything was ok and my N1 has gone back to the issues of not having any reception and I keep getting the "Sorry! Process System not responding" error message about every 3 minutes.

Please help me!! I'm an Android noobie and realise I'm an idiot for attempting to do this when I clearly don't know how to!

So far doing either a hard reset or a soft reset has not solved the issue.
