[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
WiFi works perfectly fine until we are both using it on our hd2's. It seems our phones keep kicking each other off. We don't have this problem while in Windows though. We have different Android versions also. Hers is darkstones and mine is subtract. Don't think that matters though. Must have something to do with the network names or something like that confusing the router. Any ideas?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shadiku:
I think it's because most (all?) the builds have the same MAC address.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
if you are using the same builds it will be because of the mac address being the same as mentioned above, if you look it will probalby be something like 11:22:33:44:55 on each hd2

i know the desire hd build uses a different mac address
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jamesjf:
Most of the Desire/N1 based kernels use the MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55, so to the router, both of your HD2s will appear to be the same device.

I had this issue, so changed the kernel on my HD2 to hastarin #4.1 which is an Evo-based kernel which uses the device's real MAC address, so they appear correctly as different devices.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
CRAP !!!!! is there any way to change one of these? If not, I guess o have to go research what to replace one of them with, which sux
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
ok just installed that on my shubCRAFT 1.5 and it solved the issue with mac address :) Thanks for the tip

Its a little confusing which will work with what.

Takes a while to pick up service though.

Dam, after reboot wifi error. It was just working, wtf

Ok thats crap. I install the new modules, and wifi works fine, on and off, but after i reboot the phone, wifi error.

Any other way to get different mac on each phone? or atleast one, with everything working normaly as it is now with both builds in use?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
OK, i had to install some app and run a script and seems to be all good
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
Just tried to put the same setup on the wifes phone with hastarin #5 and both had same mac again. I guess it really doesnt use the real mac address, just a different one than most of the other kernals
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LondonTownGuy:
Maybe if you assign a static ip adress to each of your phones in your routers address range (in the phones wireless advanced menu) it will stop your router trying to assign an address. Also your router may have an option to turn off mac adress filtering.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wiliueyum:
ip address is different from a mac address, he will still have a problem connecting both hd2s. and that's not how mac address filtering works. will still have a conflict
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wineds:
Is there a fix for this yet? Does any Android build read the wifi MAC address correclty from the HD2?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
The only fix so far is run different kernels. That's what I've been doing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] carhigh:
See this post if you want 2 of the same kernels with 2 different mac address. They are hard coded in, but its the best solution for now, for running 2 of the same sets on the same kernels.

Thanks to member wayubi for his help with this, and a partial solution

How do you bring up the magnifiy bubble
[Android Apps and Games] akito:
Hey there, I'm looking for a little app on my Froyo that will turn on the WiFi and disable the 3G as soon as I reach my home (for example) and when I move outside again, that it'll disable the WiFi and enable the 3G.

Whether it's done by GPS or done simply by noticing if the WiFi signal is available, I don't mind. Does anyone have a clue about this?
[Android Apps and Games] Coucher:
I'm not sure if either can do it since I've yet to use them, but you may want to look into two programs, one called "Tasker" the other "Locale"

Both have the ability to execute location based tasks.
[Android Apps and Games] ugumba:
I've used both Tasker and Setting Profiles to accomplish this. Tasker is very powerful, but a bit fiddly to get working correctly.

SP is simpler, and works very well. The jury is still out.
[Android Apps and Games] OnSterrDroids:
There are a few apps that will do that like tasker and locale, but for my needs I use setting profiles.
[Android Apps and Games] fef3000:
Y5

Y5 do it great. remembers WIFI location acording to cell info (doesn't waist battery for GPS) and turn on and of.

only bug in my eyes it that in order to shut down WIFI on a remembered location, you need to disable app or forget location.
[Android Apps and Games] akito:
Thanks so far for the replies! Right now I'm trying Y5. The rest doesn't really work for me. I've tried Tasker, but no... then I've bought "Setting Profiles" as it seemed to be promising, but it doesn't recognize the places where I'm at. Both through GPS as well as cell towers... it knows where I am, but doesn't change my profile. Big pity!

So, now I'm trying Y5. Only down side is that so far none of the programs has the ability to disconnect the 3G upon activating WiFi.
[Android Apps and Games] fef3000:
i think it does!

at least in HTC DESIRE it turn 3G off
[Android Apps and Games] Aztriltus:
Locale can do the job. For example, you can set 3 situations.

Set 'At Home' Situation - Condition: Location plug in(any good location plug in)

- Settings: Locale variable plug-in, add, type 'Home', True.

Set at Defaults - Add Locale variable, add Home = False

Add Wifi - Off

Add 3G - ON

Set Wifi - Conditions: Home = True

Settings: Wifi on

3G off

For my case, I've added Appli Detection condition for the Wifi situation where it detect my browser, etc and perform the wifi on. Hope this helps. IMO, Locale does best and is simple.
[Android Apps and Games] the_scotsman:
I use Tasker to do exactly what you ask.

When I get home, Wifi turns on, 3G turns off. And vice versa when I leave.

Same when I get to work.

I do both of these without the need for GPS or even cell tower location..it's based on when I'm near my home wireless network.

Also turns off wifi, 3G and screen rotation when I'm in bed.

And then makes me breakfast in the morning (well, not quite, but it's almost that good! :P)
[Android Apps and Games] akito:
Okay guys, I have definitly uninstalled Setting Profiles. I can't seem to rely properly on it. One time it works, the other time it doesn't. So, I simply don't want it anymore :)

Now I'm trying Tasker, seems promising. I have downloaded APNDroid next to it, as Tasker was notifying me about the fact it needs that program to be able to (dis)connect the 3G. Now.... I'm stuck for a bit. I have made tasks, but have trouble with the profile. The location, I would like that to be done as the scotsman has got it. According to if it finds your home as well as, in my case, work network. How to do that? Cause when I want to set my location, it takes me to google maps. And I take it that works by GPS. No problem neither, but drains the battery a bit more... Would anyone be so kind to give me quick and short step through? :D
[Android Apps and Games] dalepl:
I use Tasker, but I do not believe you can use WiFi location if WiFi is off. Location base uses GPS. You can set an option to do tasks if the WiFi connects. 3G is automatically disabled on my Incredible when WiFi connects, so I do not have to implicitly set it off. Just be sure to adjust your radius when you use GPS location. You do not want to drive way down the street to have WiFi turn off and 3G come back on.

I use Tasker to also launch the car app when bluetooth connects in my truck. There are good examples on the Tasker Web site.

Posted this in the galaxy S thread, as its not telephone based i am posting here aswell... hope you dont mind

A month ago or so i created some icons, maybe some of you will like them so i made a rar. There is a psd file inside aswell if you want to create your own icons...

I recently upgraded to JH7, and realized that I can no longer use my own specific audio files as ringtones anymore...its only letting me use the stock ringtones.

When I go to Settings > Sound and Display > Voice call ringtone , the only ringtones I can choose from are the ones that came with the phone. It's the only thing that pops up. Theres nothing for me to click anymore that lets me search my android system for audio files.

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keitht:
I never noticed a way to browse for ringtones. What I did was create two folders on the internal storage.... one called ringtones and one called notifications. I placed my sound files in those folders, disconnect USB then I can see them in the list of choices when selecting a ringtone or notification sound.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grave101:
Yeah, thats my problem. I can't browse my SD card or anything anymore when selecting ringtones or notification sounds
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaseone:
Did you maybe apply the GPS fix that results in media scanner FC'ng? From what I can work out that is the kind of thing media scanner does on boot or remounting of the sdcard, it scans for media to add to the various areas so if it isn't running that would explain why the custom ringtones aren't showing up in the list.

Alternatively you could use My Files to browse your sdcard and set the ringtone that way.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keitht:
Can you plug your phone into the computer, choose mass storage, then pull the notifications down to choose "mount" then use Windows explorer to see internal storage?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grave101:
No, I have no GPS fix installed. The only thing I have is the I897UCJH7 by designgears and root.

Yes, I tried that and I can view the internal storage as well as the external
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keitht:
When viewing internal storage in Windows Explorer, Do you have a notifications and ringtones folder at the root? If not, create them and drop sound files in there, unplug and try again. If you already have them, see if you are able to rename the existing files or drop new ones in the folers, unplug and try again. Also try restarting the phone. If that doesn't work, I am not sure what else to do, sorry.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] othermark:
under /sdcard/ there should be media folder

create the following directories if they don't exist:

/sdcard/media/audio/notifications/
/sdcard/media/audio/alarms/
/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones/

Drop the audio files you want into those specific directories and they will appear in the chooser when you're in settings.

I'm having a problem with ringtones in contacts. Not able to set custom ones for contacts. Well I can set em, they just aren't used. The general ringtone is used. Idk, bout to wipe again. Any suggestion?

From a phone on an app
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WD333:
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think there was ever an option under "Settings > Sound and Display > Voice call ringtone" for custom sounds. I vaguely remember not being able to find it there either when I first got my phone in July. So I'm assuming the update from last week didn't "remove" this. I think the only way to set a custom ringtone is to apply it to individual contacts in the Contacts app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WD333:
I had thought the same thing a few times because I simply forgot to click Save after I chose the actual ringtone on my SD card. What happened was that I went to my contact, then I set a custom ringtone and I assumed by choosing it that I was good. But then I mistakenly hadn't clicked Save before I backed out of the Contacts app so it defaulted back to the default ringtone.

Not sure if you did the same thing as I did. Just wanted to put it out there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boborone:
Thanks, but I have saved many times with many different ringtones. In t their contact info, I can se the ringtone is set for phone, google, ect, but when they call, I get to ear the standard ringtone. They are all f ringtones I got with the zedge app. Idk.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ntothes:
Uhh, this thread is really old, but I found out how to bypass this problem.

[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
you'll need to use adb shell once you copy the files to a location on your internal sd card

you'll need to mount system as r/w first so do this, so:

adb shell

su (your device needs to be awake and unlocked so you can verify the SU request)

mount -o remount rw /system

cp /sdcard/xxxx.odex /system/app

cp /sdcard/xxxx.apk /system/app

reboot

the reboot is just for good measure. i've used this technique to get apps onto the phone, but as usual YMMV. If you post up the apk and odex files as a zip i'll give them a shot.
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
Do you have o remount /system as read only or will the reboot do that?

2nd time I change the SIM card, the HTC stop to boot, blocked with the White screen with HTC logo. :confused:

Of course, I try to remove battery, retry... but always blocked.

I can go in the boot menu in holding the "Volume down" key during the boot process.

I try "Recovery", but blocked too with the Recovery logo /!\ in red :mad:

Yesterday, I post a question on this forum, and someboddy reply me to try to completly erease the configuration data and cache.

I try this solution : in the boot menu, I go to "Clear Storage" option

and IT WORKS ! :)

After, the HTC reboot and the Cyanogen mod run correctly.

Of course I need to reconfigure my Google account, and reinstall the applications. But it's not too difficult, and my HTC Desire in Ok now !

Why I have this problem ?

I don't know...

Perhaps I remove the battery just to quickly after I change the SIM card for the 2nd time ?

Hi!

I've found that using search to launch applications is much more hasslefree than setting up icons etc....

Only small annoyance is that I have to first press the home button - then the search.

If I could somehow configure the phone so that a longpress on the hardware search button would go into global search (rather than the current-app search) it would be great.

How can I do this? Is there an app that lets you map the keys?
