[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Okay,

big apologies

, but this is the wife's phone (surely you can understand).

Her phone was updated to CM6 RC2. I did a really good job of making sure it was exactly as it was before the update. Two small problems exist now though, and I'm sure it can be fixed.

1 - She uses LauncherPro (not ADW). I installed, restored all settings. Rebooted and it was perfect, UNTIL I used the search widget (I know there is no point for it, again, wife's phone).

When I open the search widget, works perfect. BUT, when I return to the home screen the search widget is stuck at the top of the screen, covering the 4 app icons. I have to reset LP in order for it to return to normal.

What is causing this? What's the fix?

2 - The phone CONSTANTLY is syncing. It never stops. Even when I cut off sync using the power control widget, it is still showing the sync icon.

I just started using SMS backup, so I am curious if that is to blame? I would not think so... but... it's the one NEW thing I did add (though I don't think it caused an issue just before i updated when I was backing everything up).

I DID search but could not find an answer. Thank you for any help!

Is anyone else having these issues?
[XPERIA X10 General] indusporus:
Hi guys,

I've recently bought the Xperia x10 mobile(unbranded) and subscribed for a new 3g connection(bsnl prepaid connection) so that I can use 3g in my mobile.

But, X10 doesn't recognise my bsnl sim. It's saying that there is "no sim card in the phone" and when I unlock my phone it just keeps on showing me the "activating phone" message forever.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks

P.S. I've tried some other sim cards(2g ones) in my phone and all of them are working and my 3g simcard is working in other 3g mobiles. The only problem is with the particular simcard and x10.

P.P.S I'm going to visit SE service center, but just wanted to know if there's any existing issue with SE and any 3G bands.
[XPERIA X10 General] Struyk:
Exactly the same as mine. After trying several SIM cards it appears that the phone will recognise any that just have the 7 contacts on the back. If they more contacts around the side (enhanced SIM?!) - it will not recognise them.
[HD2 General] Jeimygirl:
SO I hate this phone.. and love it. I've had it since March, and I"ve never ever had to reset a phone so much Im my decade of owning phones. I understand that it's a lot in a phone but 3-4 times a day... it's getting really annoying. IO haven't had the time to flash my phone but until I do I would like some assistance in changing one thing. T9... I can not use T9 on my phone. It is SUPER slow and it comes out worse than typing without it, completely freezes if another text comes in at the same time. It's a huge pain, heck the whole phone is. But I could go on and on about that.

I have tried to do this step:

12. Reduce Errors in Typing

In Input options, disable the number of words to show in T9 for less mistakes when typing and thus faster entry

Well... then I tap the words option, it only turns on and off, it doesn't pop up a menu to change the words. I don't know why. I think this would really help. Anyone have a way around this? Maybe a registry change method? Thanks!
[HD2 General] Jeimygirl:
Anyone? I'm tired of having so many typos because I can't use T9. Even starting from a clean ram/ no messages in my inbox. It still lags like crazy and I can't use it that way
[HD2 General] azzzz:
sorry...can't help ya there...I use SWYPE and it relieves some anger...LOL...but flashing and putting in a custom OS was the best thing I ever did to this phone. Faster, Smoother...but just make sure you do your research before you flash a new OS onto it.

OR

Try android. It runs from your memory card but works great. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] TheDjKiDD:
WHen I first got the Slide it was awesome! The pictures it took looked great... but now my phone won't auto focus right... there is no manual focus... now it just takes awesome blurry out of focus pictures!

Is this happening to anyone elses phone? From the looks of the intertubez this will become a "known" issue with TMO

Are there any files the camera accesses for settings or the like that may be damaged? I have tried other ROMS and they all seem to have the same problem....
[myTouch 3G Slide General] marty22877:
yup, happened to me too, i just got a warranty replacement and it's clear again. you have to call and get a new phone.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] megan23247:
My camara was blurry the other day and I noticed it had condensation under the lens. It ended up drying out but the pics still arent as clear as they have been. Weird.

Sent from ROOTED MyTouch Slide
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sherman8or:
yea this same thing happened to mine and i just called them and got a replacement. i even tried resetting my phone before i sent it in and that didnt fix the problem so idk what causes it. Hopefully it doesnt happen again with my new one.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] TheDjKiDD:
It started happening after this rave I played at.... the humidity inside was probably 100%
[myTouch 3G Slide General] thegreatcity:
Yes, this happened to me as well. It would only focus on things literally about an inch from the lens. When wiping didnt fix the problem, T-mobile sent me a new Slide.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] snuggpugg:
Blurry Cam

:confused: I just bought the MTslide about a week ago on craigslist and I too have the blurry focus issue, ive cleaned it, messed with settings all to no success. It only takes clear pictures if the object is an inch away. I of course do not have insurance cuz I bought on craigslist, is there anything I can do I'm desperate? I love this phone it's amazing but I dont want to have to go back to my CliqXT because of the camera (especially since its still on 1.5 till Motorola's "fairytale" update which they keep pushing aside) :confused:

[myTouch 3G Slide General] TheDjKiDD:
So I just got my new Slide and it still has 2e :)

What is the best program to use to backup all the programs and crap before I unroot this one and send it back...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] hah2110:
Yep.... Same deal with mine. Sending it into HTC for repair. It is stuck in Macro focus... Go up to something close and it will be fine.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] TheDjKiDD:
Fine if you only want to take macro photos..... otherwise useless!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Suntar:
I had the same problem with out of focus but it came down to condensation. I live in Florida and it has been hot and it is the same over the US right now. Everyone is using AC but going from cool and low humidity to hot and very high humidity well you build up condensation. I left my phone in the sun for about 45 minutes and then took some pics and it worked fine A few days later it was back to being blurry and tried the same thing. If I leave the phone in the house without going outside and take pics it is fine as well. Just going from on extreme to another it takes its toll. I do photopgraphy and when I go out to do a shoot I leave my camera in the trunk of my car to get rid of the condensation on the lens and mirros inside the camera.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] REAL6:
I think i figured the problem out why everyone camera goes blurry.

I have the mytouch slide and the pictures were perfect and crystal clear. Then when the firmware 2.1 update came, that messed up the camera big time and made it barely unusable.

Please fix the issue!!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] tinpanalley:
I just had mine replaced via warranty exchange. Just call, tell them you're having trouble, there's nothing on the lens, the water damage indicator is white, and it's still not working. You'll get a new one and if you don't have insurance they'll charge you ten bucks to deliver it to you.

I actually don't think it has anything to do with condensation or heat or humidity. Yes, all of those things can affect ANY lens on ANY phone, and the update may have even adversely affected certain handsets but this is a handset by handset issue. My father's mytouch slide got the update and still works better than my old camera did. It's a hardware problem with a certain batch of these phones. My wife's is still fine and she got it early on like me. The lens tries to focus and snaps back to its original position. It's a defect. You can play with the settings all you want, but other than minor adjustments and a lot of placebo effect, you're not gonna fix it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] REAL6:
I hear you. But i just got this two weeks ago in the store and the camera was perfect till after the update. I would hate to get a replacement for a silly camera. So debating to not care and keep the phone or just risk it and get a Warranty one :(
[myTouch 3G Slide General] tinpanalley:
You have nothing to lose by getting a new one via warranty exchange. You don't even have to be without your phone. It comes to you in the mail, you backup your contacts, you hard reset the old one, you're done.

The camera won't get better, it will not improve, you'll have the new phone before you know it. And the slide is relatively new which means the longer you wait, the higher the likelihood that you get a manufacturer refurb. instead of the new one I got 2 days ago.

Just do it. Someone in your life will do something, you'll want the silly camera, and you'll go, "damn, I shoulda listened to that dude on the forum".
[myTouch 3G Slide General] REAL6:
Hahhahahahahaha

Thanks bro
[myTouch 3G Slide General] bmxrideher:
I'm practically in the same boat. I called a few repair places up here in Seattle and since it's such a new phone, none of them were able to order parts. Does anyone know if HTC will repair it. Or even repair it if it's rooted?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] heybobitsme:
I just had this problem with my wife's slide and having read similar threads on different forums including tmobile's, I called customer care and lied a little about doing all kinds of things to make sure it's hardware, like doing a factory reset. Never mention that it's rooted! Just play dumb and they'll send you a new phone under warranty. We got the new one yesterday and I rooted it while my wife was still at work, following the new root method as it came with the 1.35.x update.and flashed chiefz 1.35.x rooted ROM (she likes espresso). When she came home I took the old phone and installed the 1.27.x esprimg.img and then flashed the 1.35.x OTA (non root). Put it in the return box and gonna drop it at a UPS drop box today.

It sounds like a lot of steps, but it goes relatively quick.

i'm currently experiencing the camera issue as well as my wifi not working (running CM6) ...it simply cannot see any networks. I tried even loading the latest nightly build to no avail. As my phone has a slight crack on one of the buttons I'm going to try and get a refurb and then possibly sell it for a G2 :)

I'll reply how it goes
[myTouch 3G Slide General] OuncE718:
I honestly do not notice the blurry pictures issue that you guys are having. The pictures are awesome in light but gets a little grainy in low light conditions, other than that my pictures and videos are great. Are you guys complaining about low light pictures?

[myTouch 3G Slide General] crunkcory:
Yeah my MyTouch Slide is doing the same thing. Blurry pics, and not able to access wifi. It happened after the most recent update. So if I bought the phone in July 2010 can I still get it replaced now? Even if I didnt have a warranty?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] RUbernerd:
You got fingerprints on the lense.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] torvick12:
Have u tried any other app camera "camera360, or vignette, or many other camera apps". and try cleaning ure lense with soft rag. Take off the cover for some dust inside it could could come off as well. Ive had my phne for couple months n well still n.p so im good ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] RavenWulf:
I personally use Camera360 and it is awesome. I love the image stabilization settings, it the only way I was able to compensate for nerve damage (can't hold hands steady at all) due to chemicals I was exposed to in Iraq.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] montusama:
I was running cm6.0.0 and the camera was great until a few weeks ago. I think I dropped my phone but I don't remember it being that bad of a drop. I've tried both cm6.1.0 and cm6.1.1 and it's still blurry. It's probably a hardware issue... and I've also cleaned the lens too.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] rogo22:
do i have to have insurance to get a replacement phone for this issue? i saw someone say a ten dollar charge, is that it?

They are unusuable beyond the inch or so that someone mentioned, and a custom rom didn't help. I'm also having another issue that i'm about to make a thread about, so I'm hoping that i can get this replaced without buying a new one (even more plus plan, so no contract, and no insurance on it)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] getmoneymarkie:
ok for yall sayin yall just got a warranty replacement was it free or did u get charged a deductible, im havin the same issues ive had the phone since the day it came out meaning i still have warranty right? im paying for monthly insurance btw
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
I dont know since when this problem persisted but the keyboard on my desire is weird.

Everytime i try to type fast, there's other letter i don't touch appear in the screen as if i touch it. Mostly the letters appear are y, g, and v.

Knowing that, i then did some test. I tried to type fast only using the letters near my left and right thumbs like a/s and l/k and i did it continuously. As the result, i could see the letter g touched itself while i never touched it AT ALL and then it appeared on the screen.

Then i tried the other line by touching q/w and o/p and the letter y appeared just like the letter g.

That also happened with the third line with the letter v.

This happens everytime i use keyboard (messaging, notes, email, etc)

I dont know if the ROM i'm using causes this because I have tried using some ROMs (not all yet but plenty)and the only one I did not experience this is when i'm using Open Desire ROM. But I dont like Open Desire because I want Sense on it.

I also believe the applications did not cause this since this problem appears just after i flash the ROM and havent installed any application yet

Anybody knows why it happens and how to solve the problem?

FYI my Desire is rooted with Unrevoked way and right now using Lambros ROM.

Any reply is appreciated. Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
Edit:

After trying using Open Desire again, it looks like the problem also occurs with it. I also have calibrated the keyboard but the problem's still there.

Still waiting for anyone can help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Opalid:
Hi!

I have the exact same problem! (I'm using standard Froyo on a non-rooted Desire).

There's something else, when I type faster than usual and the random letters start appearing the backspace key stops working. I can't delete anything at all and the only solution is to retract the keyboard and then bring it up again. If I do that it works perfectly... until it starts acting up again!

My solution? Well.. I tried Swype and it seems to work just fine! Sure, it's WAY different but it's worth it. It just works flawlessly. And if I don't want to swype I can always type normally, it works for that as well and it doesn't malfunction like htc's keyboard. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
Thank you very much for the reply and the solution.

Me have the same problem with the backspace either. I will try using swype although i don't use english often for text messaging or else.

Still waiting for other input which might have another solution without installing third party application or add-on.

So does the official froyo cause this? because i haven't had a problem like this when i was using eclair based custom ROM or N1 froyo based custom ROM as i recall
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgattenb:
better keyboard is fab !!!!!! and it works very well typing fast .. the swype thing is rubbish , as I cant spell very well...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
Well it doesn't matter any application you want to use since that's not the main concern. I'll try Better Keyboard as well. But when I tried to search it in the market with keyword 'better keyboard', I couldn't find it because too many add-ons and the application itself was beneath them. Can anyone help me with it? I can also not find Swype since there's only one application appear when I type 'swype' on the market and it's not Swype
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snudel:
this is beacause desire has no real multitouch.

any keyboard will have same issue
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenhi:
Better keyboard is a paid app. Can't see those if you are not living in eligible country...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
So this means that all Desire have this kind of problem?

I see. I tried the one in blapkmarket but it's still the same
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
It's been so long and i finally got the solution after all this time.

My friend told me that this problem is caused by multitouch error and that means hardware problem. He had the same problem but his is HTC Hero.

Then, I tried changing my ROM to MIUI J-Style 10.29 and unexpectedly the problem is gone. From that, I at least can conclude that this is not hardware problem. Anybody having similar problem can try having MIUI for the device's ROM. But maybe some Android-freak dislike it because it has iOS look.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xift:
Hi,

I am porting Froyo to the Miphone A3/A8, a chinese Iphone clone.

I got a big problem that seems to be common but there is no source how to solve it. The radio log says that the apn was successfully connected via GPRS or 3g. It states my ip address, the gateway, dns servers... everything seems to be reasonable.

But if I open the browser or any other program the sites cannot be loaded.

Its not the dns server... I tried to access the ip as well.

Worst part is that netcfg states:

ccinet1 down 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

that should be set right?

Is there a way to set it manually? If I just set the ip via ifconfig ccinet1 x.x.x.x and ifconfig up it doesnt help.

Does anyone know that problem?

Thanks in advance

3) when i launch ROMUpdateUtility.exe,

From 1.14.xxx to vox-USPL

--> error 270

OR

--> error 260

[HD2 General] Marcel-AW:
Can someone please tell me how to uninstall (completely remove this game from the system) Prince of Persia HD, Ferrari GT Evolution and Tetris Demo since this games are only a demo and I can not find those program in the "Setting-Managed Application-Removed Program" :confused:

Thanks
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
The Tetris demo is cooked into the ROM I believe, and therefore can't be deleted. You can delete the icon for it though, follow the second step below.

For the Prince of Persia nd Ferrari GT games, they're just on the SD card and not even on the phone itself. You can just delete the "Gamesloft" folder from your SD card, and that will get rid of the data.

To get rid of any of the icons for those (including the tetris demo), just open file explorer, and navigate to \windows\start menu. In there you will find .lnk files for each of those (might be in one of the subfolders). .lnk files are just links, you can delete any that you want.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] nekkidtruth:
So....a minute ago I look at my phone and it's automatically downloading the file listed in the title from T-Mobile UK.

Anyone know anything about this? Side note, I'm in Canada with a rooted phone on Rogers.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rvictorg:
what do you mean from T-Mobile UK? did you buy an X10i from them and are using it on Rogers network or are you using a debranded (to T-Mobile UK firmware) and rooted X10a bought from Rogers?

Any chance of posting this mystery file??

*also should probably posted in General not Android Dev
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] nekkidtruth:
The phone is an x10a from Rogers that was debranded and rooted.

The place it was downloading the file from was uk.tmobile.com or some variation of that.

The file is around 75 megs so can't post it from the phone. Will definitely post it when I get home later.
