Volume rocker turns off sound???

I can't put the Epic into the dock to watch a movie without the dock hitting the volume rocker and it mutes the sound. Anyone have a solution?
[Epic 4G Accessories] othan1:
Phone charm. The string is enough to keep it from hitting the buttons.
[Epic 4G Accessories] Lilinka:
Alternatively, while the phone is docked (yet, for some reason ONLY while the phone is docked...) you can hit Fn+Left to raise the volume and Fn+Right to lower it.
[Vibrant General] Haimej:
Ok I have noticed that my vibrant is randomly reboot more than usual. I can be on the web or checking email she'll just bog down and restart with no warning. Is anyone else experiencing this issue.

I have my phone rooted running launcher pro and theres one more thing I'm noticing more of the apps are not responding and force quiting are you guys have the issue as well
[Vibrant General] mveksler:
I have same thing but untouched vibrant. No root.

It has re-booted three times already since i got it (i.e. last two weeks)

The reason it is re-booting is because kernel is crashing. The reason is still unknown.

It could be GPS driver crashing the kernel or faulty hardware.

Best options is to replace the phone or wait for Froyo and hope this problem goes away.

Root Explorer is unable to re-mount /system in R/W. The button simply does nothing when I press it. I am also unable to update AdFree, which re-writes the hosts file in /system. Anything I can do to remedy this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
stupid question, but I have to ask: are you rooted?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontshakepandas:
Try backing all the way out of the folder by pressing the (...) button at the top. Keep pressing that until you are at the root folder (it won't be there anymore). Now press the r/w button at the top. It should change, and will stay changed once you go back into the other folders.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] o0beaner:
Sorry, it was early, and my brain wasn't good for specifics. I am rooted, running SRE 1.2.

Root is mounted R/W, but /system will not change state. Is there anything I can try from the terminal?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emmfan:
Same problem here on my wife's Captivate. I used SRE 1.2.1a and noticed that I was still seeing ads. So I tried installing Adfree and updating the host file and ran into the same mounting error.

On my own Captivate, I had used 1-Click root before SRE came out and no problems updating there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfernandez:
same here no ADFREE in SREv2b7. I tried R/W on Root explorer and even trying to change permissions on sys,system, data/data, and still get same error as you guys re-mount /system. :mad:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0808:

IM STILL GETTING failed to remount system partition read-only
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
I can't update AdFree either.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j1mb34m:
Didn't work for me either--still got the "failed to mount read-only file system" or something like that. Also, when I tried the "-o remount,ro" adb said device or resource busy. I'm pretty sure this has been discussed in the SRE thread, but i really, really, want adree to work
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
Hi,

i think i found a bug in CyanogenMod6, because i couldn't import any Contacts from my SIM Card. Tried it with three different SIM Cards and with several restarts, but it didn't work out.

But then i tried CyanogenMod5 and it worked there.

That's why i think that is not some mistake by me but it's a bug in CyanogenMod6.

Please post, if it works or does not work for you.

I've got a german original G1/ Dream (no Roger's or something), everything else works great btw! :)

Regards

PS: Oh and i searched everywhere for that bug, but SIM and contacts and import and copy didn't seem do be words that a searches works for. Don't ask my why. So i just posted it here, hope it's not a known bug.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
It worked, after going into flight mode and out again. So it isn't a Cyanogen bug after all. Although i remember using this function in 1.5 oder 1.6 official and it worked without reseting (but maybe that was just by chance). However, this should be included when showing "no contacts on your SIM-Card" so users know what to do to solve this problem. It would be great to have it in there..

Regards
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
i have the same problem where none of my imported contacts will appear in contacts.. did the same thing as you did but it still doesnt work
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atikot:
got same problem

got same problem

this site /showthread.php?t=771199

flight mode didn't help in the 5 version, on the 6 version no contacts on sim card, it has something to do with the 3g sim cards, the 2g works fine.

also to this problem there is a problem receiving sms with the 3g sim
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
I can't approve that. I've got a 3G card and it works perfectly, receiving SMS too. Did you try Contact2SIM App as well? It's free, try it out.

Oh and i did the flight mode trick right after booting, after i saw that the Dream couldn't find contacts on SIM. Maybe it must be done first or something?

Importing also worked in the latest 5 version for the Dream for me. Even without the flight trick. But that might have just been by chance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aymeric_:
i have the same problem on Cyanogen 6 on my HTC LEGEND... I try one thing and it works fine just after!

When you try to import your contacts from SIM, your phone contact list is probably empty... Create a new contact (just name & phone) and then try to re-import from SIM.

Is it ok for you?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
I didn't need to do that. However it might work, but that does not solve the problem, that the Dream can't find any contacts on the SIM, if you have that problem.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
Nope.. nothing seems to work, whether it be importing of of the SD card, flight mode on/off nor creating a new contact then importing.. last time i had this problem was with 5.0.7 and what i had 2 do to stop it was get 5.0.8 :(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unrelashade:
I don't think that you have to wait for a new version, because it works for other phones/ SIM-cards...

However, did you try Contact2SIM app? It's free and in the market.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vylle:
yeah.. it works quite well, but doesnt help seeing contacts
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibraheeemz:
everyone, there is nothing to go and look for. just import contacts once either from sim or from sd card. still it will not show contact while it has imported already. you only need to change display in cnotact. In the contacts app, press menue to see options, choose display options. then go to google click on the google account that you might have configured and under this tab Check the box "all others Contats"

this will start showing all the contacts imported so far.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blietaer:
I can confirm this is a real issue for me too.

HTC LEgend RC2 build 66 here too and no SIM card contacts available....

I _did_ try (but hell why?!) the flight procedure crap, no success.

Of course I managed to get all my contacts back probably thanks to many side effects of the differents titanium-bckup, SD card/V-card, google-i-know-who-you-called-last-summer servers, gmail accounts, ....well all thoses things I wish would have never had my contacts info stored 'somewhere' (although, again, they _did_ save me here...)

This custom ROM is fast, nice, froy'd and now can even allow me to phone people (funny for a smart-PHONE huh?! ;o) but I'd love to be sure I am reading my contacts from SIM (and ONLY SIM, but hey, this google-anger has nothing to do with the great cyanogen work...)

Thanx and Go on debugging dude!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDictionary:
On my T-Mobile G1, I had exactly the same problem: 'No contacts on SIM Card', even though importing worked on the 1.6 it had before I used Cyanogen 6.

I was worried that importing the contacts had deleted them for something... :(

I toggled Airplane Mode, and I can import the contacts just fine!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidFreek:
Oh just go into contacts choose display options press your google name scroll down and preess all contacts and it should appear post again if it works or not

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] slickdaddy96:
I clean installed (RAR file) the Blazn build w/ sound a couple of days ago. Now I having a lot more stability issues and Navigation freezes up every time I open it. I have searched through google and on here, and I see people with the same problems with the new build but no solutions or acknowledgement that multiple users are having issues like this. Here is what I did.

I go into google maps to insure I have a GPS fix. It finds me within 2 meters or so. I then go into navigation. It doesn't give me the location error because I have a GPS lock. I then type in the address I want to go to. I have the bar at the bottoms saying "Getting GPS" or something like that. In the middle of the screen it has the "getting directions" or whatever it says, but the little spinning circle animation freezes up. If I click to try to get to the menu. Android tells me it is not responding and I can Force Close or Wait. I force close. Of course Android opens it back up. I then hear the first voice prompt of where to go on my directions. When I click on Navigation to get back into it. It shows me the next turn, but freezes up again. This will go on forever until I force maps and navigation to close manually for good by going into settings and force stopping the processes.

I thought maybe it was the Blazn build, so I renamed the boot directory to something else and clean installed (using the RAR file) the stock build. While it is more stable and I don't get as many random crashes of apps and processes, I still get the same problem with Navigation.

I also have tried to format and attempted to clean install both builds and still have the same problem.

Is there any Sprint customer able to get navigation to work and not crash? I am thinking this is a CDMA/Sprint problem only, and it has something to do with the app accessing the sound, or at least that is my hypothesis, because it was working in all prior builds up to this one.

Any suggestions or thoughts?

I love you guys... I have lurked here for months and xda-developers for years. I love how you post toward people that don't post all the time. You treat them like idiots, crazy people or whiners.

I am not freaking out. I am not a newb. Is this not the place to post problems with the xandroid project? I am posting a problem that I have not seen posted on here before. I am not complaining about the usual stuff that still isn't working. I understand it is a work in progress. I was just posting a new problem that has come up since the sound started working. I did this so that potential programmers will see it, and to also see and get feedback on whether other Sprint users or other carrier's users are having the same problem, or if theirs is working fine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] [ACL]:
Thats what we are known for .. but think about this.. where would the dev process be without us ? lol ..So sorry for treating you like one of the crazies ..

My advice is to hit up PPC geeks since most of the cdma community is there. Fyi, im not involved with xdandroid. Just with the kernel development and Those have really nothing to do with one another. However we do cross paths from time to time. Also dont be afraid to joint the irc chat for xdandroid. People there will be able to give you a better idea of whats up.

To echo what the previous two guys have said - Cyanogen and OpenDesire are the two most used non-sense ROMs available...

OpenDesire has pretty much all the features of Cyanogen but a handy update program as well which is easier than flashing your phone with the newest ROM all the time. OpenDesire is also usually updated pretty frequently.

I'm very inexperienced in major coding out side of web development, none the less using coding to make a complex app for Android and webos.

I am hoping for some help on this project that I want to freely contribute to the songbird project. This will be a full media app much like doubletwist is but with more features and 100% syncing with songbird and other programs.

I have had a design and layout already thought up and designed. That's mostly what I'm good at LOL. As well as a development outline for the progress of each version building up the features thought of and planned. Would post a concept image of it but I'm typing this from my phone and can't.

Really hoping this works out as I believe this can be a huge media player in the mobile realm.

the attachment is a radio kernel zip for radio 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23.

i flashed it already, gps locking now is very fast.

REMEMBER nandroid backup before you do!

Could everyone with signal problems please post the Country Code, Network code and bearer? and test the attached build.prop file ? i made a flashable zip too
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
ive yet to figure out the advantage of flashing this zip file, anyone care to explain in plain simple english for us dummies :P

ty in advance!
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
1. you must use Open Desire

2. you must flashed 32.47.00.32_5.10.05.23 radio already

3. put this zip file to your sd card

4. boot into recovery

5. flash it and reboot , all done

What are the benefits of flashing this?
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
since flashed it, i use "gps status" to locking gps within 5 seconds...

[Desire Android Development] qubz:
Haven't run into any problem, though have not tested benifits
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
thank you for feedback
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
So basically... are you extracting driver files (or rather libraries?) from the ROMs corresponding to the radios for flashing them together?

i.e. you're saying that if you flash the driver files from the HK OTA with the HK Radio, you get better performance? Very interesting...
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
Well, the idea is that if you match the radio with the proprietary libs, you have a combination that has gone through a big QA process by HTC, it's not random stuff you suspect they might work well with eachother.
[Desire Android Development] snapilica2003:
So why is this only for OpenDesire?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Makes sense - which libs are usually included in custom ROMs? The ones for the latest radio?

Good question... :confused:
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
because of i only use OpenDesire, so i did the test myself already
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Do you know which libs are included with OpenDesire 4.0.1 already? Isn't there a chance that AdamG has already integrated the libs for the latest radio?
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
AdamG has older libraries due to complaints from people that lost network connectivity. (They propably had an older radio...).

The most important lib, RIL:

OpenDesire 4.0.1: HTC-RIL 1.6.1062G

New lib: HTC-RIL 2.2.0015HM (Aug 9 2010,11:40:11)

Thank you for this zip, which is definitely improving the gps fix.

But unfortunately I'm losing my network signal a few minutes after rebooting.

Edit: I'm using the latest radio ..10.23 with od 4.0.1 and my provider is e-plus (germany)
[Desire Android Development] soppie:
same here, how do i get back to original, just reflash .23 radio?

edit: even a nandroid restore to OD 4.0.1 from before did not help. i do have WIFI but 3G and HSDPA wont connect so i have no mobile internet

Reflashing .23 radio did not work as well

edit2: i might not have read properly, i came from OD 4.0.1
[Desire Android Development] ourfear:
as i wrote, do nandroid backup before you flash my zip file

so just restore your nandroid backup image should be ok.
[Desire Android Development] georgemv:
Do you have problems with the 3G network or the 2G network?

Could you try locking to phone to 2G, see if you loose the signal, then do the same for 3G?
[Desire Android Development] snapilica2003:
OK so I've made a diff on this update with the files provided in Paul's MCR ROM and it appears most of them are the same, so i only updated the ones that were different.

I've flashed it and it seems to be working brilliantly and with no network signal loss (as some are posting around here)
