[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobiq17:
hello..

im having problem with mobile internet (O2) on my HD2. it started since first days when i get that internet for mobile. It works fine, but sometimes (too much freqentli) it just say that i cannot connect to the internet, I load page, lock mobile, and after some time (from 5 to 100+- minutes) suddenly internet doesnt work. In settings -> wireless control -> data connection, its turned off, and i cant turn it on coz it still saying that i dont have internet, it say something about GPRS. the only solution is soft reset

somethings about my HD2:

anybody know any possible solution? :/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnerz:
Could be linked to receprtion, or congestion, best bet is to call O2 and get them to check it out before you worry about the phone
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobiq17:
i dont think its caused by O2.. my brother had some samsung smartphone, and his connection was flawless, but a week ago he brought HD2 leo, and 2 days ago he came to me with problem like i have
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bilbo Fraggins:
Hi All,

Debranded my Orange phone a couple of days and took the jump instantly to Froyo 2.2.

Noticed since however, that my battery takes an awful long time to charge now, even via AC.

Is there something that could have perhaps gone wrong since the upgrade?

I also noticed last night that browsing and market place downloads were alot slower over wi-fi. Is this a trait of 2.2 as well perhaps or just a coincedence?

Oh, as an aside whilst I think of it, had a hairy moment during the whole debranding process where my phone became sim locked. Luckily this was before 2.2 so was able to find a top tip suggesting I remove the sim card for updates.

I was therefore able to apply the 2.2 update with the sim card out, bailing me out somewhat.

Should I always ensure my sim card is removed for future updates or has that danger been averted now?

Thanks for any info

Justin

Just thought I'd give you guys a heads up about a new application called Tawkon. It's pretty cool. What it does is monitor radiation released by your phone when making calls and alerts you when it's high. It has background monitoring and graphs. It works well and honestly the IU is amazingly polished. The mind the reviews and low stars, because they were given by idiots who can't get it to work for their phone (Droid X, Desire, etc) when it says Galaxy S only.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bananamandave:
Finally released?!?!

I remember talk of the release for this app about 6 months ago for Apple but the nazi control iTunes canned the release for them. Great to have it for Android!

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] amd_203:
LOL No, I don't work there and I found out about it on a article at Androidguys.com, I believe it was. Just thought it was cool, and you guys should check it out, that's all.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Zaphodb2002:
Quoted from Wikipedia:

The effect mobile phone radiation has on human health is the subject of recent interest and study, as a result of the enormous increase in mobile phone usage throughout the world (as of June 2009, there were more than 4.3 billion users worldwide[1]). Mobile phones use electromagnetic radiation in the microwave range, which some believe may be harmful to human health. A large body of research exists, both epidemiological and experimental, in non-human animals and in humans, that shows overall no evidence for harmful effects.

Don't worry so much.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Chalup:
How could an app even physically measure the radiation? Maybe it just estimates based upon what frequencies you are transmitting and receiving and at what rate?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sigeltek:
stupid app, thats why it has a bad rating.

Hi All,

After studying information from all of you experts on the NET and carefully understanding the process, I finally managed to Root my HTC Hero and upgrade from 1.5 to the FusionROM 2.2!!

Feels great to see the superb performance of my handset. However, I found that my device doesn't sync up with my Windows XP + Microsoft Outlook. Tried downloading various versions of HTC Sync (2.0.4, 2.0.8 and also 3.0.5422). HTC Sync doesn't detect my phone.

The FusionROM 2.2 doesn't have a PC sync option in the 'Accounts & Sync settings'.

Any help to get around this problem will be much appreciated.

As I mentioned, I am not an expert in this work, so, will appreciate a step-by-step support please...

hi...i've just upgrade my himalaya from WM2003(official ROM) to WM6.1 professional build 21054 by aeroflylubby...everythings goes great from this ROM!! i'ts pretty fast an stable:D

but i've one simple problem...i can't receive any file like picture/music via bluetooth from other devices.:(

first to all i think my bluetooth device is broken but i've just found i can sending file like pictures/music to other devices..so weird isn't it?:confused:..

can anyone help me...big thx:)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
In some ROMs it is that old thing, that it is necessary to do a soft reset (after couple with a new device). So I do it every time and had no issues by now, although I never tested this rom. It's a workaround to prevent problems, and it works for me. Good luck
[Streak 5 General] ale922:
i wanted to buy the dell streak today nline. I am from chile and wanted to order it from dell.com. it ask for a USA shipping address which i don´t have, i entered my mothers address from tennessee and tried paying with paypal and again i couldn´t because the paypal account is from chile. How can i Buyt the phone?!

I am no looking at dell streaks in ebay but i´m not sure if they will be ok.

What should i do?
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
I was in the same predicament. I live in Canada and didn't have a credit card with an american address, so I went the Ebay route. I was trying to avoid it at all costs but it worked out in the end, and I'm enjoying my Streak.
[Streak 5 General] ale922:
good to hear that, i just ordered one from ebay also, it said its unopened, sealed box. Although it´s not unlocked, i´ll try to get the unlock code from at&t and if that doesn´t work i´ll get a rebel sim
[Streak 5 General] imperial_patrick:
was gunna say i bet you could pay somebody else to order it for you and ship it to Tennessee but i see youve already ordered one...
[Streak 5 General] webvan:
I'm about to order one online too, I'm in the US so dell.com is ok, especially since they have a "Get a $100 gift card with the purchase of a Streak" (you can't use it right away though so it's not very convenient for the car/home dock)...

What I don't like is the "For use on AT&T network only" - makes no sense they should sell a locked version with no plan for $549.99! Has anyone bought one like that and they got an unlock code from AT&T ?
[Streak 5 General] ale922:
the one i got from ebay was locked to at&t aslo, as soon as i got it i called at&t and told them i had a dell dtreak and needed the unlock code, the rep asked for my imei and 30 seconds laer gave my unlock code. the whole call didn´t last more than 5 minutes.
[Streak 5 General] webvan:
That's nice, are you an AT&T customer? Someone said you had to have an account with them "in good standing".

If anyone knows about the restocking fees from Dell on a Streak I'd be interested, in case I order it and don't like it ;-)
[Streak 5 General] ale922:
no, im not an AT6T customer. I live in Chile and told them that also when i called.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonloveslou:
Hello all,

Usually, requests here are along the lines of "how can I get this to do more?" but this request is different.

I would like to know how plausible it would be to completely cripple and lockdown an Android device. For example, I would like to ensure that the device can only call pre-programmed numbers and has features or peripherals turned on permanently. The device would need to be useless to any person other than the intended user, basically.

I know this would require a custom implementation of the Android OS as I'm sure any app that could even get close couldn't protect against being uninstalled in some manner or other.

If anybody has any ideas or thoughts, I'm completely open. I have experience in flashing/rooting mobile devices etc and am an embedded engineer by trade so don't hold back.

Alternatively, if any one has heard of similar projects, I'd be happy to take a look.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allen K:
Question 1 - Has anyone gotten HSPA speeds (up to 7.2 Mbps) on the Vibrant prior to JI5 firmware upgrade? I was consistently getting 800 down / 800 up on 3G, but after the JI5 upgrade last night, I tested using Speedtest.net app and I'm consistently getting 5.3 down / 1.3 up, which is a humongous improvement. Or is it just a coincidence that my local network got upgraded at the same time?

Question 2 - Now that my 3G speed is as good as WiFi (or better), does it make sense to continue using WiFi? I read that 3G drains more battery.. but I also read that WiFi gets disabled when the phone is sleeping. If that's the case, does that mean that most of 'standby' activity is done on 3G even if I have WiFi turned on?

Thanks in advance.

Allen K

There's an option to keep Wifi on during sleep. I would always opt for wifi unless it's actually too slow to use. It's just more power efficient.

Thanks guys!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheek360:
Lol thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
I was getting Almost 4mbps down, and over 2mbps up with stock. I checked on - now - 3 phones (4 soon? lol) so the speed is quite consistent.

The funny thing is that this happens outside of the city where they say the HSPA+ actually is. If I check in the middle of the good city then the speeds are less than 1/3rd that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elkavayo:
Yes. My T-Mo Vibrant (a Galaxy S phone ;-) has reached up to 6 Mbps download and 1.6 Mbps upload fairly consistently since day 1. Keep in mind that download/upload speed depend on many factors and vary, also HSPA may not be live in all market now.

After the upgrade, the phone continues to reach the same speeds, so I'd say that it's a luck of the draw, but it doesn't matter, what's important is that you're enjoying 5Mbps speeds now.

It could be that the upgrade optimized the HSPA implementation and under your circumstances, the phone was not able to reach that speed and now it ca,

This is debatable and it probably depends on the chipset, architecture and software components of both 3G and WiFi. In some phones, some knowledgeable people claim that 3G uses more power than WiFi and Viceversa.

I have also heard some smart people claim that WiFi uses more power, but you are able to do more, due to higher download speeds, so you use it less, ergo extending battery life.

If you have WiFi, your experience will be better, with faster downloads, etc, as you will get much higher download speeds than 5Mbps.

The default WiFi policy is to disable WiFi during sleep, but that can be changed (advanced settings)

I keep WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G on all the time. Unplug the phone at 7 am and plug it back at 11 PM, and I have not had issues with the battery.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heygrl:

[G2 and Desire Z General] StuRoid:
I've never heard of this being an issue here in the UK about certain carriers only getting Edge on their phones. This is more the case over in the states where the different carrier use different frequencies.

The carriers here all use the same so an unlocked and unbranded phone can be used on any carrier. If anything you find maybe the speeds are a bit slow then just go on your carriers website and you can find the settings to use.

When searching for my PC from the vibrant it shows up on my phone but I am never prompted on my PC even though I have the Alert me box checked. I get one of two results:

1. I'm prompted to confirm a random pin number, but a few seconds after clicking accept I am provided a message saying "Unable to pair with PC. Incorrect PIN or password"

Hi y'all,

I'm looking to buy some new chargers (wall charger, car charger) for my HD2 (not that this should matter, I guess it's something that applies for a lot of devices) but can't figure out which combinations of chargers & cables will really charge at 1A.

The combination of an iPod USB charger with a micro USB cable from my local store resulted in 'USB connected', and hence maxed out at 500mA. Recently also used a 1.2A car charger with a micro USB cable (both from dealextreme, being cheap =) ), and once again I got the dreaded 'USB connected'.

What do I have to buy or do in order to make my phone understand that it's not charging through USB (well, in a way of speaking) but through a wall charger?

Muchos thanks!

Edit: did some more research. Just short circuited the 2 center pins of my car charger, and now it's recognized as AC, whoo! I suppose this applies to all chargers, hence, question solved!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mxgoldman:
So I ran unrevoked3, and the hboot drivers are installed. HTC Sync is not installed. The phone has debugging on, and is in "charge only" mode. When I run unrevoked, it does its thing, and then it boots to the attached picture instead of clockworkrecovery.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidtx:
Can someone explain to me the difference between unrevoked 3 and unrevoked forever? I have read the entire unrevoked site, and searched, and it seems that unrevoked 3 does essentially the same as forever, in that, it seems that forever used to do nand unlock and be a permanent root, and unrevoked wasn't, but now they seem to be the same exact thing. I just ran unrevoked3 on an evo with the latest OTA update on it. Can someone please explain to me what the limitations of this root are compared to unrevoked forever, or even a more traditional rooting method? I still just don't get it, and this is coming from someone who rooted a G1 an a N1, and ran CM on both, and flashed recoveries, and did it through ADB.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
I'm curious about this too. It does sound like Unrevoked 3.2 basically includes Unrevoked Forever.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cor4twenty:
you are correct :) its like a combination of unrevoked 2 and unrevoked forever. full root, nand unlock included
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ddt928:
I never used forever but my understanding is that forever is not full root. It just turns s off and gives you the ability you flash zips through hboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeknoJnky:
unrevoked = standard root + recovery

unrevoked forever = SOFF (meaning security is turned off at the radio and you can forever flash any valid rom/update even if you do an OTA that removed root and/or recovery, just flash a new amon/clockwork).

I believe that the latest unrevoked does include/run unrevoked forever also, but if you already rooted and have a custom recovery, you can simply flash the unrevoked forever directly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigBallin:
from what i gather unrevoked forever lets you do OTA and you just reflash Su and your recovery

Hello everybody!

All of you have already seen how fast Desire HD boots, this is done by utilizing the hibernation mode, which is enabled by default.

Has anybody done any research on hibernation mode?

Does the hibernation mode depend on NAND or can we have this option enabled now with HaRET/SD?

Is this feature something that needs to be incorporated into Kernel, or can it be added as an App?

And at last, the assumption is, that this is a software feature, but is it actually a hardware feature that is currently available only on Desire HD?

Thanks,
