it times out while attempting to load saying..

DATA Connectivity Problem

the server failed to communicate try again later

not my wifi because i've tested at 5 different WIFI locations including my house..

i had a friend with a slide try the same thing his complaint is wifi wasn't working.

I don't pay for a data plan and i have data blocked hence why WIFI is my only option unfortunatly wifi doesn't seem to work at all if you want log/ect and can tell me how to get them from my slide i will gladdly do so
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Wifi works fine in the latest nightly. I suggest you flash that. I tested it with all my apps in airplane mode with *only* wifi active. All is well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Virus1x:
it surfs in wifi but unfortunatly it doesn't add my market account to market

it claims its not provisioned for data services..

meaning CM has to have a DATA connection for WIFI to work with market

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
So your problem is that you can't get market to initialize itself. Because the Market app absolutely allows for wifi data connections. If that's the case, I highly suggest you post about this over at forum.cyanogenmod.com

I can't get Flash Player 10

when I try to install the Flash Player apk it totally fails. Is anyone else having this issue?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kufudo:
Wifi works just fine for me. Maybe try doing a fresh install? Don't forget to update radios and wipe everything before isntalling CM, and then the gapps package.

I write a complete guide on how to go from stock unrooted to CM6 R1 here.

I didn't post in on this forum as there's enough guides around and didn't want to confuse things further (although I literally had to go through around 5 different threads to piece everything together).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kufudo:
Being a noob I was under the same misconception that Froyo = Flash. Unfortunately it doesn't. Adobe has only compiled flash for ARMv7 processors to date, which are the high-end 1GHz devices (Nexus, Galaxy, etc). Our slide is running ARM 11 I think, which is a different architecture. I don't think Adobe has made any official announcement that they'll support this architecture. And it probably makes sense. They're trying to prove that Flash works great on mobiles. If they release Flash for the slower CPUs, the Apple fanboys will just be like 'there! see? flash sucks! steve was right! suck my ballz!!'

Maybe someone will work out a way to convert the apk to ARM 11, or make an emulator for it or something... but who knows.

Is anyone else having problems with wifi like this? I cant seem to test it on the market because it wont let me login to my google account. I havent tried changing settings or anything on my router yet but it does have a wep encryption i believe. but it just sits at the add google account screen and saying it may take up to 5 minutes.

Then it will come up and say cant establish a reliable data connection to the server.

But I can surf the web and everything else!

Annoying!

Any ideas?

I did flash the eng build and wiped everything before installing.

Edit: I am using wpa encrypt and its kinda important to have wifi as I don't have a data connection other than wifi.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kufudo:
If you can surf the web and have no data connection it means Wifi is working properly, so no need to mess around with your router or encryption settings.

You did install the gapps add-on, right?

Syncing to google may take some time, I didn't get all my contacts back for about 5 or 10 minutes (although I did that over 3G).
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Otherkid:
Yeah I just did a backup through rom manager.

I did install the gapps specific file name was gapps-mdpi-20100814-signed.

I think I'm going to rewipe and try again.

The thing is it usually takes a minute to sync everything from google to begin with but then it comes up and says it timed out or no connection. =\

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssj4Gogeta1:
Hi

Does aGPS require you to have a cellular data connection in order for it to work? Or will it work with any internet connection (eg. using my laptop's connection through wifi)? I'm asking because I don't have a data plan (yet), and my phone has locked only _once_ since I bought it a month or so ago. I've tried switching to MS based in LbsTestmode, changing the supl server to supl-google-com and supl-nokia-com (can't post links yet).

The one time it did lock was when I was testing the GPS without an internet connection, and I entered a WiFi covered area and it suddenly locked (5-10m accuracy). It wasn't WiFi-based positioning because it was my laptop's WiFi hotspot. And I was using the default settings at that time (www-spirent-lcs-com, Standalone mode). Since then I've tried different combinations of settings but it hasn't ever locked.

Another question: What's the difference between MS based and MS assisted modes?

My phone is an I9000 Galaxy S.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TMReuffurth:
Correct me if i am wrong, but as i know aGPS doesn´t need any Data Connection to make the triangulation between the GSM Antennas. So no need for Internet Connection to use aGPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssj4Gogeta1:
AFAIK aGPS is different from cellular triangulation. It refers to downloading satellite information from a server for a quicker fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TMReuffurth:
I thought it would make a triangulation between the next availabe antennas in range and get over a dedicated channel (not data channel as mentioned above) localisation informations. Because my Nokia N80 had aGPS but not real GPS and in the manual they said something about this triangulation.

But of course i know the download of the actual satelite coordenates from my Touch HD in Windows Mobile with a dedicated App. Just thougth it is something diferent.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
aGPS is a technology that downloads satellite data from agps servers at realtime (that is the time you are using the GPS): WIKI article

I guess that the app you are refering to, the one you used on the HTC, is Quick GPS. This program doesn't download satellite postition data in realtime but once in a while. (I believe the data are vallid for 48h) With Quick GPS one can still enjoy the features of aGPS while one hasn't a data connection with a aGPS server.

The Galaxy S GPS (BCM4751) seems to have both, aGPS and a sort of Quick GPS. Only the last is called LTO by broadcom. (see: http://www.broadcom.com/press/release.php?id=s443754 about BCM4571 specs and see here about LTO.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rasmith3530:
aGPS uses cell tower triangulation, and information from a server, in addition to satellite radio signals, to quickly assist in determining the coordinates of a phone's location. Since cell tower sites are precisely surveyed, they are a reliable source for locational data. A data connection is required. All modern cell phones, at least here in the United States, are required to have aGPS service for use in locating a phone by emergency responders. This is a part of the E911 and is required by FCC mandate. Data is used in tracking down the phone, but it happens behind the scenes and is paid for by fees charged to cellular users on their bills for E911 compliance.

On phones that allow the user to make use of the aGPS chip, there will generally be a setting that allows you to set for E911 use only, or for what is commonly referred to as "location based services." On my Android phones, there are actually two settings, both found in Location & Security Settings. One allows for location based upon use of wireless networks, and the other allowing a fix via GPS satellites. Even with any location based services turned off, emergency responders can still find the phone. The difference being that you cannot use it.

While it is technically possible for you to use your phone's aGPS without a data connection, your chances of getting a signal are sketchy, and your chances of getting a really accurate signal are, under most circumstances, slim to none. Much of the computational work in determining your location is done by the assistance server, and guess how that information moves to and from your phone? Yep, you guessed it, data!

GPS signals sent from satellites are simply radio signals, and your local pop music radio station probably sends its signals with more force. As they are radio signals, they have to contend with everything a radio signal has to deal with, and a large percentage of that is man-made. Signals confusingly bounce off of buildings, are weakened by passing through walls and foliage, or can even be absorbed in some cases by different materials.

Some aGPS chips cannot function as stand alone GPS, and will not work at all without a data connection.

Try this, turn off your cellular radio. Make sure that your WiFi is also off. Now, fire up Google Maps and ask it to start navigation. How did it work?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TMReuffurth:
Yeah, that i was talking about. Didn´t know this all :D I love this forum, you always learn more and more.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rogo-1:
Well, using Google Maps would not be a valid test, of course, since you need data connection to download the local map anyway. If you want to test whether data connection is requires by aGPS, you need to use an offline GPS application.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssj4Gogeta1:
Thank you for your guys replies.

@rasmith3530: So can that data be downloaded over wifi? (My common sense says yes, just trying to confirm.) If it can, then aGPS isn't working for me at all. I see at max 2-3 satellites in LbsTestMode, without a lock on any of them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foxbat121:
No one said aGPS is working on SGS. They are broken and no fixes yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
I think you're right. The fact that there are no ephemeris and almanac data recorded for satellites let me think that it may be the case that with a certain informed guess aGPS and the advertised LTO function doesn't work on none of the firmwares.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssj4Gogeta1:
Other people seem to have locking/accuracy problems, they can at least see those satellites. Mine normally shows 0 or 1, so I thought maybe I'm doing something wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
In JM1-JG5, I had that issue (couldn't lock onto anything). Switching to JM5 fixed that..
[Nexus One General] xxsashixx:
I'm having a bit of issues with battery life. Currently I'm using CM6RC2 with Green Power.

SetCPU is enabled with profiles at 384max when screen is off.

Autosync is off

Screen timeout is 15seconds.

Brightness is at autoset.

Now after doing a bit of gmail, facebook and streaming music over 3G for about an hour plus standby for another 7-8 it goes down to 64/63% is that normal? I've seen people using it for 14+ hours with at least 60% left.

Second question/issue connects question one.

What ROM and Kernel combination and possibly application helps maximize the battery?

Thanks.

Sooo, I just tried flashing Damage Control 3.5 a few hours ago and since then my phone has been absolutely horrid to me. I tried flashing the PC36IMG.ZIP but it wont let me for some odd reason. I've tried flashing different roms (as long as different radios). All to no avail, the only things I can access is the main recovery screen and the Clockwork recovery screen.

If anyone can help me out here so I don't have to pay the $100.00 claim to get a new phone I will gladly donate to XDA for all they've done thus far.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmodelli:
I think i can help, but i might be a bit off since there not enough info on the post.

Anyhow, you will have to:

1) Download a new Image (stock?): ex. qap.la/~netarchy/BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip

2) Doanload a stock kernel: qap.la/~netarchy/netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip

3) push both images to your /sdcard/

3.1) adb pus file BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip /sdcard/

3.2) adb push netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip /sdcard/

4) reboot your phone in recovery mode (hold volume down, click power)

5) wipe data/factory

6) whipe cache

7) advanced -> wipe dalvilik

8) Install zip from sdcard

9) choose zip from sdcard: (you should see the BurntDroid-1.0-Froyoized-netarchy-signed.zip there, choose that one, and say yes whe asked)

10) repete number 9 with netarchy-toastmod-4.0.3a-signed.zip

11) now choose +++++

This should get you to a working phone. You will have root and a decent kernel.

I ope this helps.

I guess you have to make sure the sdcard is NOT MOUNTED in windows before trying to access with ADB

5) Plug the Xperia X10 into the PC. You should see two icons appear in the notification bar (the USB key and hazard key denoting you are in debugging mode). Scroll the notification bar down and connect the USB (DO NOT mount the card).

Take this black decal sticker for example Logoless Decal The faceplate decal in this setup does not protect the screen, as the window is cutout where the decal goes over the screen.
