[Droid 2 General] vaderj:
So a friend of mine has a droid ii that, on any ringtone, anytime someone calls the phone audibly says "verizon wireless" every couple seconds, interrupting the ringtone the first couple cycles before it lets the ringtone finish playing through. Anyone have any ideas? Does this even make sense to anyone?

Thanks!
[Droid 2 General] goliathvt:
Yes. I believe that's the "Roaming Tone" under Menu - Settings - Sound Settings:

"Set notification tone informing the status of cellular service."

If I recall correctly, this will call out changes in cellular network as they happen and inform you of the network status before you answer a call. This is handy if you have a plan that doesn't cover roaming, but otherwise probably is just a nuisance.
[Droid 2 General] vaderj:
Bingo ! Thank you sir! That did the trick!
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Most people don't know this but there is $10 and $20 monthly plan with the airave. The 10 gives you unlimited minutes for one phone and the 20 for 5. Basically a long as a call is originated from the airave device, minutes are unlimited, even if you leave the area of coverage.

[EVO 4G General] martyzidek:
Who would pay that on top of the $100 to buy it and $4 monthly fee? Especially since the only minutes used is landline calls? I don't know one person anymore that has a landline. Maybe others but I can't see myself ever using anything over an hour a month. So far my two bills I have used none of my minutes up.. but thanks for.letting people know this as when I talked about an airwave at sprint store they never said it comes with a plan or need a plan. Just a straight 4 dollars a month to use it. Imo those plans are useless unless you know and talk to regularly, people with landlines.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
A lot if people aren't on data plans believe it or not, helps those out a ton. Unl calls for 49.99 a month on our talk 450 plan for 39.99.

[EVO 4G General] mrpickem:
Not sure what you mean, but I have an evo and poor reception, sprint sent me a free airave and it does do data(3G). I get full strength signal. Not a big deal since I usually use wifi at home anyways. The call quality is great...I think it just turns ur cell into a voip, but it works great!
[EVO 4G General] michaeldonovan:
they told me it is out of stock and i can even see it listed on the sprint web site. does anyone have the same experience.

ive got all of sudden my N1 wont make any sound when touching an icon, selecting an app, or even there's no sound when dialing a dial pad..

ive try rebooting and turning off my phone but there's still no sound... hmmm... and ive been through the Sound setting menu, the option for selection sound is on.

i use setting profiles app and also the selection sound is on

i wonder what's the problem..have anyone experienced this?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdsemler:
In this thread, especially towards the end after someone posted the GPS fix, everybody is talking about how fantastic thier GPS is working. I'm running 2.1.6 of Cognition, and while I love the ROM, I'd love to be able to say my GPS runs well.

What is involved in getting a Vibrant ROM to work on Captivate? Are they close enough to work?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman2002:
They are not close enough to be able to put the Vibrant ROM on without any modifications. There are a couple cross platform ROMS the Eugene has made, basically a Vibrant ROM that uses code from the Captivate. Otherwise we are SOL for their ROM's.

any way to turn off galaxy s when in download mode without taking away battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reaper1412:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] han.azuki:

Emm, and why did you do that?

Id recommend to go and reading flashing guide (pinned topic). Helps a lot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] han.azuki:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compuse:
Yep, so it does here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] han.azuki:
Yeah imma just let it reboot and put in download mode instead of taking out battery and put in download mode again as most people tell to do.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compuse:
Release the buttons after the screen turns black, then you'll restart the phone normally, .. atleast it suppose too ;/

edit; i tried and did it before i posted this!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dupel:
Oh. Than yeah, probably just hold power button.

Btw, im obviously not very competent in flashing captivate, but i would think that vibrant is somewhat closer on firmware side than international (JI6 froyo, or something if im not mistaken).

Broad question, but how buggy are the nightly roms for cm6?

Did cm6 and did enjoy some of it, but apparently had to drop down to 76 vs 79, understand the nightly offers the support for 79, but how buggy are they?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiicytuna:
I upgrade randomly and have little to no issues with the nightlies. *shrug* At the same time if you're looking for a 100% guarantee, I cannot give you that as there are things here and there that are rocky until the cm crew irons things out. I'd suggest you make a nandroid backup (read: you'll have an easy out if things go badly) and flash a nightly and give it a whirl for yourself.

'tuna
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] posguy99:
NIghtlies are guaranteed to build (otherwise they wouldn't be there for download). They are not guaranteed to install correctly, to boot, to make phone calls, to NOT erase your sdcard, or anything else.

If this bothers you, don't use nightlies.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nrre:
someones dramatic =P

maybe i'm just lucky, i've probably flashed 30-40 of the nightlies over the last few months and never had any real issues that made me stop using them. one or two might of had random reboots but weren't any worse than similar sense roms out at the same time.

the nightlies with snap7.6 and turbo enabled, over clocked to 1.2ghz is ridiculously smooth. plays music and home run battle 3d better and smoother than any other rom/kernel i've tried.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phobos512:
No, they are not even guaranteed to build. There was one night prior to the release of final 6.0.0 where the build bot reported FAILED on the site. All that's guaranteed is that the build bot will attempt to produce a nightly every night. Whether it succeeds, whether it works, those are not guaranteed.

That said, prior to the 6.0.0 final release I switched nightlies fairly regularly and never had any issues, though I *always* did a full wipe using AmonRA recovery prior to updating. Never updated over a prior nightly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
drama queens and zealots...good grief.

the nightly builds are in general just fine. I've only had one nightly so far that had to be removed the next day because it was 'off'. that day also had two builds available for download...if i had read up on the nightly thread i would have seen that folks were having issues with the first build and waited until the next morning to flash the next ROM.

i wipe Cache and DalvikCache before flashing a kernel or a fresh nightly build.

will anyone take responsibility for you loading up a nightly? no.

will folks likely help you if you have issues with a nightly? depends

how so? make sure you do a search or two before asking...else the zealots will beat you down. god forbid you don't read each and every post from both the CM6 and Nightly thread. anyway....

make a nandroid.

read up on the last couple days of the Nightly thread. make sure no one is *****n about anything new or unusual.

load up the currently nightly and enjoy.

personally, I'm not impressed with the stock CM6nightly kernel. I'd suggest testing out the Snap or King kernels.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] barnacles10:
Hey guys. Firefox 4 has finally released a beta 1 for android devices. For those who are curious before you try, I figured I would update this with a little information on Firefox for android and what you can expect from this beta. After all, its a huge install :D

-No flash support yet (yet)

-Pinch to zoom has been added (was left out in alpha builds)

-Swiping to the right on any page brings up your open tabs. This will display windows in a small thumbnail which you can close right from there. You can also start a new tab from this area.

-Swiping to the left on any page brings up a few options. The ability to bookmark, back and forward buttons, along with a settings icon to change settings.

-One big plus of firefox mobile that has been added is firefox sync. This allows you to login and sync your browser information with your Firefox browser on your PC.

-Set font. I thought I would mention this since seemed to have mixed reviews on it. There is a font set in the browser, aside from your current system font. Personally, I don't mind it. Its clear, so it works.

-Add-ons! If you're familiar with Firefox desktop then you're familiar with add-ons. Well Mozilla has brought add-ons to Firefox Mobile as well.

-Find in page / share page links easily accessible from hitting "menu" on any page

-Tapping on the address bar brings up bookmarks / history / desktop tap for easy access. This will keep the address bar highlighted in which you can simply search a keyword or enter a website. If you again press menu while this field is highlighted, Firefox will give you options of sites to search for your keywork. Google / wiki etc.

Keep in mind, this is still a BETA release. It has come a long way since the alpha builds, but doesn't seem quite ready for prime time just yet. Grab it and let us know what you think!

You can grab it here : http://bit.ly/9mBett

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sooks:
I'm using AvaFroyo9 and the browser seems very smooth, in fact I'de use it as my default if it currently supported flash.

Update: After further testing, it appears to lag when typing in text fields. Also text boxes with drop down menus do not appear as they should.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Just_s:
I used the alpha for a week or so and it was absolute crap.

I downloaded this beta earlier today and it is absolutely the fastest browser I have used on Android (and I have used them all)! It renders perfectly and might become my new fav. I'm an avid Dolphin user, but this might make me switch.

Thus far the potential drawbacks include no flash and doesnt appear to close when you go to another program. (Don't know if that is a battery issue or not as I haven't had it long enough.)

In any case, I recommend checking it out.

Update: I'd still recommend playing around with this browser, but it definitely has a ways to go to catch up to Dolphin. Lots of odd little quirks, like struggles with Swype.

not the fastest browser out there... it actually lags a lil bit more than stock or skyfire in cm6, but not by much, once it renders it is really smooth tho.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cds36:
Maybe this has been addressed. But I switch between sense and launcher pro sometimes. I have all my widgets on both launchers, does having widgets on both cause more of a battery drain ? or affect it in any way ? Should you only have widgets on one launcher at a time ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cds36:
Anyone ? Has anyone noticed a problem
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms79723:
Shouldnt cause excessive drain because the launchers wouldn't be running at the same time. And if they do, only one will be updating. So if you had twitter on both, but you are currently using launcherpro, only launcherpro's twitter widget will be updating. As soon as you switch to Sense, you'll have to either manually update for it to catch up, or just wait for the autosync.

[Droid Incredible General] bagery77:
I would definitely consider it because I run the Mac platform and I like the look of the phone and how the OS works. All of the camera face-offs I have seen have iPhone winning, and as a sometimes photog, that sorta matters to me.

However, the whole Adobe Flash thing has me reconsidering what I'd have to give up to go iPhone. This full HTML web thing has me whipped. And, the customization and rooting capabilities can't be beat.

I'm pretty much in love with this phone and have found workarounds to do what I need to do on a Mac. I'm blown away daily with the Incredible.

It may be an easier decision to make when my contract is up in 2012. So we'll see. Then again, we have no idea what's in store next year. If its the iPhone 4, then I will have to pass. That's old news.
[Droid Incredible General] khanam:
I have both a rooted incredible and a jail broken iphone 4. To be honest, once you break the shackles of the manufacturers, both are great devices. I would recommend an iphone over an incredible if you just want a simple elegant device. But if you like more control over your devices, like tinkering with it everyday, the droid platform is much more interesting. That's why I spend my day on the incredible and the iphone is my backup phone.
