Im running 2.2 and would like to make the most of the browser, yet on some sites it keep sending me to the mobile version.

For example on the WilliamHill.com site it loads the home page, but as soon as i log in it sends me to the mobile.willhill.com version

Where do i tell my phone to stop doing this?

Whilst in the browser select the "Menu" key. Scroll down until you find an option for Mobile View, then untick the associtiated box.

How do you force the browser to NOT use Google's mobile version when searching from the browser address bar? (type words instead of url in address bar and press enter).

Hello all

Bought a 2nd hand milestone on ebay after selling my dell streak. Loving the change to a physical keyboard.

I've installed my usual suite of apps and widgets and noticed mini info reporting something slightly odd. The battery was only decreasing its charge in increments of 10%. I thought mini info maybe the cause of this so I removed it and began to monitor the battery via the settings > about phone menu but its still doing the same thing....

Is this a "feature" or is something slightly odd going on?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] RossLH:
Thats just how the Droid/Milestone does things. I'm not a big fan of it, but I'm way too lazy to do anything about it.
[XPERIA X10 General] jas0607:
Hello,

I'm wondering if there are any customisation options in Mediascape that I'm missing. Now that I've started putting photos into folders, I've noticed some annoyances. The Albums categories show photos that I do not want there, such as Album Art from my Music. I know I can fix this by tagging/embedding the artwork properly, but it's still a pain. But the same problem applies elsewhere. For example, I use the Sync2Pix app for bringing Facebook photos into my Contact List. These photos now appear in Mediascape under a 'cache' folder.

Is there no option to specify where Mediascape looks for photos? Or does anyone know where it looks, the memory card only?

Any advice appreciated...
[XPERIA X10 General] angelahp:
Hi

I use Mixzing for music - i deleted those folders in mediascape which held "album art" and it didn't affect the album art in mixzing.

I think if you went into your photos folders using pc companion you can move your photos around to different folders and change folder names, for the sort of thing you are downloading from facebook, i just made a folder called contact pics and stuck them in there.

Angie
[XPERIA X10 General] jas0607:
I don't think I can change the Facebook contacts folder as it's the app that is setting it's cache folder. Surely SE can have a simple option to select or monitor certain folders only? Will check out Mixzing though, thanks.
[XPERIA X10 General] junooni.1980:
hey how can i dump my own wallpapers in the default wallpapers??:confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] dejo6:
Do this:

On PC, open notepad, then save as .nomedia and save as type: all files

Place that .nomedia file to the folder on x10 that you don't want mediascape to read and that's it.
[XPERIA X10 General] jas0607:
Dejo, thanks a lot, I thought there might be something like that I could stick in the code, so glad you told me. Will try it out tomorrow. Thanks again.

Hi,

Since past couple of days my HTC HD Mini handset is not detecting the wifi network. I tried placing it very near to router but still I could not see any available network.

I also tried to add network manually and giving the security key. But still it does not show the network and says <network id> unavailable.

As far as I remember I have not done changes in settings.

Can anyone help me to identify and resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

[HD Mini General] Azesss:
I think it must be a hardware failure. To ensure get a hardreset. If the problem continues, no doubt.

Good luck!!

Did you try another wifi router? If yes, it migth be h/w issue. otherwise, should be setup issue.

Thanks everyone for your kind reply.

To my surprise, now my phone has started detecting the wifi network. For some odd reason it was not detecting any of the wifi network.

I really don't know how it started working now but I will use your tips in case I face similar problem in future.

I am sure most of you have noticed that on 2.1 for the Hero, and probably others, when you add a new event to your calendar via the phone the web version shows the event as an invitation pending acceptance.

This seems to be an issue with the latest ROM.

Are there any of you that have created your own ROM's that have resolved this issue?

I know this seems like a really minor thing but it is still something Google should be getting right.

It's of course rooted with the unlocked bootloader and running the latest Nightly for the last few weeks. Does have a ding where it fell out of my truck.

[HTC Aria General] Furies:
Hey all I just rooted my phone last night and installed the 8/11 version of cyanogen mod 6. Needless to say I don't miss HTC Sense. I have one small quirky detail though that's driving me up a wall

When i power off my phone at night and plug it in to the wall charger, it boots into Clockwork Recovery instead of too a battery indicator. I prefer to turn my phone off at night but I can't let it sit in Clockwork Recovery everytime i turn it off to charge.

Is this a bug and something I just have to deal with or is there a way to fix this? Thanks.
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
yes it's a minor issue, and yes, we all have to deal with it. It doesn't even start clockwork reliably that way.

It seems the old battery icon was part of the original recovery, so there is no fix is on the horizon. Really, no functionality has been lost. The phone is never really off when charging anyway. Better to just leave the phone on and let the screen go off while charging.

For future reference, this is not really a development topic, and is more suited for general discussion.
[HTC Aria General] NotATreoFan:
Moved to General.
[HTC Aria General] Rockwig:
So, no functionality is lost?

Does that mean the phone is actually charging while in recovery? My LED shows orange like it is charging, but doesn't seem to turn green. I have fully charged the phone while on, used it a little (15 minutes or so), shut it down, then plug it in and it is still orange after a couple of hours.
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
No idea about that. I don't shut down to charge - so for me - no functionality is lost. I'll trade clockwork recovery for shutting down to charge any day.

Thank you.
[HTC Aria General] Kizzmiazz:
I am having the same problem and really want too know if the phone is charging I'm trying to calibrate my battery and needs to charge while phone is off and don't know if this affecting it

security issue?

I understand if this is not a functionality issue, but what about security? I am running a tracking app on my phone in case of theft. Doesn't this make it extremely easy to wipe my phone and remove it?

What I'm wondering is if there is a recovery image that has a standard charging capability that I could use instead of Clockworkmod. I'm not planning on installing a new os any time soon even though I like clockworkmod.

[HTC Aria General] matt_b:
no. if it bothers you that much, unroot your phone and reinstall the original recovery.

just flash the old recovery, you just wont be able to flash roms afterword without unrevoked.
[Desire General] dhiral.v:
Just recieved my 2400 MAH extended battery, I have had the device running now for 12 hours straight with all connectivity turned on (including syncing, wifi, data) and in that time I have also done some web browsing. The battery is still at 100%.

I know it is an extended battery but still, by now my standard battery would be at 50% roughly.

My concept is that the standard battery the phone comes with maybe faulty or have some problems?

Any thoughts or ideas?
[Desire General] AzureusPT:
It heavily depends on the ROM you're using... I've tested several Sense and non Sense ROMs and the variation of the battery could go from 1 to 3 days aprox. I'm actually using OpenDesire latest ROM and its easy to get 2 days of battery life with a normal use and 3G/Sync enabled all the time.

Obviously having a more powerfull battery also helps... :P
[Desire General] dhiral.v:
Well i've got an unrooted desire and using stock 2.2 rom. The battery life has been so bad, even when i turn syncing off.

I know its an extended battery but still why was the standard battery so bad
[Desire General] Whiterin:
Hmm. Not sure. I don't have a bad battery life, but that sounds pretty awesome as far as battery life goes. You wouldn't happen to have a link to where you bought that from would ya? Would be interested in taking a look at it my self. Is it larger then the normal battery, or just higher capacity? I know many of the aftermarket batteries are a good deal larger then the stock ones.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
I can't see how your battery could possibly show 100% after 12hrs usage

It's either bad battery stats, or the battery status indicator isn't scaled correctly for your battery.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] contrary:
it is probably because its voltage figure is still higher than that of a standard one.
[Epic 4G General] robl45:
anyone found any cheaper places to orderfrom? I just reserved through cellulardeals.com No tax and they are selling it for 240. But going to be an aweful B*tch to return if there is a problem. anyone ordered through them? every other place seems to want to charge tax and activation so I'm taking it twice. And this place is slightly cheaper as well.
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
I'm not expecting preordering, but I do expect Wirefly or more likely Amazon.com to have the Epic 4g at a discounted price. They are who I am counting on. Amazon had the captivate and vibrant for $50 off the new contract price on release day and $100 off the new contract price the very next day. I am hoping the Epic 4G follows a similar pricing pattern so I can order it for $150 on September 1st. This is all hopeful speculation though.
[Epic 4G General] robl45:
if you order from a place like this, and you port the number, what happens during shipping, are you without a phone for a few days?

And i assume if you don't like the service or whatever, you have to ship back to this place?

I'm debating on whether its worth it or I should just buy from best buy.

Also, amazon charges tax, wirefly i believe doesn't. wouldn't mind getting it from them but they don't have it on the site yet.
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
Well from Amazon.com, they don't have their sprint phones on amazonwireless, since it is in beta. I inquired yesterday about porting numbers and it looks like you have to call the provider when you get the phone to activate it and handle number porting stuff then. I am not fully sure about it, but here is the email I got and the link they gave me. Hope it helps.

"Depending on the carrier, local number portability may allow you to move your number from your current provider to a new service provider.

With Sprint PCS phones and plans, you will need to call the provider to start your service after you receive your phone. You will have the option at that point to port your number from your previous provider.

We recommend you consult with both your current provider and the potential new provider to determine any fees.

For more information on how Amazon.com supports local number portability, visit:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/?docId=1000452751

I hope this information is helpful, and thank you for your interest in Amazon.com's Cell Phones & Service Store."
[Epic 4G General] radar5:
I believe it's the same as if you were to order from Sprint through the mail. It will ship unactivated and when you get it, you'll be walked through the process of activating and porting the number (possibly over the phone?). It may take a couple hours for the port to move over, but I think it usually happens pretty quickly.
[Epic 4G General] robl45:
when i preordered this morning through cellular deals, they asked for the account number and phone numbers for porting, thats why I think they activate it, free standard shipping means I could be without a phone for 3 days, thats not going to fly. But best buy is 50 dollars more, I don't have the money to begin with so 50 dollars more is 50 dollars more I'd rather not spend.
[Epic 4G General] radar5:
well call up cellular deals and ask them, but i don't think that's the case.
[Epic 4G General] robl45:
has anyone ever ordered from cellular dealers or wirefly, what happens if you don't like sprint, do you just send it back and they give you all the money back?
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
With Amazon.com you return the phone to them within the return period and call sprint to cancel ur service and get any refunds they offer. that's how it works.
[Epic 4G General] FrankCummings:
Just talked 2 reps at Amazon Wireless, they both said, they are not authorized by Sprint to do upgrade, only new contract. Find the other Sprint phone, EVO, there and it's true. It's $200 with a new contract, $500 for existing Sprint customers, phone only, no contract upgrade. So, I guess Amazon is not the way to go for me unless I cancel my existing account (it's month-to-month right now) and establish a new contract again. The reps said, unlike other carriers, Sprint doesn't let them do upgrade ... wonder why.

EVO has been out for a while now and Amazon is still selling it at $200 with a new contract (same as Sprint). Judging from this, there may not be any discount for the Epic either.
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
You can always try newegg. They have the phone for $240 like wirefly or whoever is doing $240 preorders and they are a bit more reputable and can do upgrades. One thing anyone who is upgrading should keep in mind though, is that upgrade prices tend not to get as discounted as brand new contract prices. Even for the captivate and vibrant you will pay more if you are upgrading than if you are starting a new contract. Makes me glad to be coming from verizon, or actually tmobile since I need to get a temporary 1 month phone and tmobile has the $15 prepaid txting only plan.
[Epic 4G General] ForrelZ:
When you buy contract cellphones from NewEgg you are not buying them drectly from them, you're buying from a 3rd party that has a contract to show their service on their page so please do not confuse NewEgg's reputation with some mail order cellphone vendor, fact is I know someone who's ordered from there and had some problems.

The cellphone section of newegg is actually operated by:

They ans WireFly have a pretty bad rep search for reviews online.
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
Good to know, though I imagine it is irrelevant given that all they need to do is set up your account properly and give you a phone, working or otherwise. So long as you are smart enough to pay for sprint's TEP plan, replacing the phone due to any issues other than damaging it or losing it are covered for free at the sprint stores, where things are once again reputable and safe. right?
[Epic 4G General] ForrelZ:
And you don't make any changes to that line within 6 months or they'll bill you a hefty fine, I know someone who swapped phones numbers after they got a mail order cellphone and got a 300 dollar charge on their credit card for violating their contract with the cell phone vendor which is separate from Sprint's. Other people have reported trying to return a cellphone to a mail order vendor and had their phone lost in the mail which meant they had to pay full price for a phone they actually returned. To me none of those prices are tempting enough since the level of customer service you get is the worst in the business and you really don't have anyone to talk to face to face if ever anything goes wrong, too many strings attached. These phones are much cheaper than in a store for a reason, always been a firm believer of you get what you pay for.
[Epic 4G General] ben7337:
Why would you swap phone numbers after you buy the phone? At least with sprint, if I buy from amazon.com (who according to their page is the direct seller for sprint phones) I need to call in to activate the phone, and handle number porting there, so you only get one number, either a new one or your old one from another carrier. Now if this was on another carrier I'd understand. However knowing these terms and conditions is part of reading the contracts you agree to, and $100+ in savings is in my book, worth the risk, especially with amazon at least. I know they work in my situation, I trust them, and they are the direct seller.
[Epic 4G General] ForrelZ:
Well there are a number of reasons you may want to swap a number with another on your account, say you don't like the phone and you give it to your daughter or significant other and you want to keep your number so you exchange numbers thats a direct violation of the 3rd party contract since Sprint will cancel the rebate the 3rd party was suppose to get from your sale, see the 3rd party will collect your rebate and make a commission certain changes will void their payment from Sprint and they will come directly at you. That was just a real world example I gave from a friend's experience but if you read reviews from sites like WireFly there are nightmare stories floating around of bad CS and unauthorized charges as well as missing returned phones that get lost in the mail.
