Moved to Q&A as not development.

@the OP, normally you would be asked to translate your post from your native language to English, and post in both languages.

As you have tried this and Google translated it into some total odd gibberish, I think we can let this one go and type in your native language!

Please do translate wherever possible though just so you are within the rules.

Thanks.

In editing the stock JI6 build.prop from the official update I did something wrong and totally messed it up. Can anyone post the file for me or help me to re-edit the file?

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
*sigh* Always make some sort of backup before you edit files like build.prop, i'll upload build.prop for you after I get back from the store.
[Vibrant General] rorycs:
Thanks, I appreciate it. I did a backup with Titanium Backup and assumed this would be included. I guess it proves that I should not ass-ume anything! I really appreciate it....
[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
Hello, I noticed something a few days ago.

It seems if you're about to get the JI6 update OTA the "3G" symbol will stay in your status bar regardless of whether your'e connected to a wifi network.

My phone did this for two days straight and on the 9th I got the "Update Available" notification.

My phones never done that before so that's why I'm inferring the phone does this when an update is available.
[Vibrant General] eminembdg:
Did the same exact thing to me as well. Was very strange to see it there even tho I was on WiFi... I also got the update about 2 days after I noticed the 3G staying in the top bar when on wifi
[Vibrant General] kangxi:
Really? My phone was doing this and I thought it was a bug. I had just installed Juice Defender so I thought it was messing my phone up so I uninstalled it and rebooted my phone.

Interesting. I already installed JI6 via Odin though... think it will prompt me again?
[Vibrant General] Ms_Vibrant:
happened to my phone too.. i rebooted my phone but made sure that my wifi is off before rebooting.. seemed to fix it for me..
[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
Well, you never know.
[Vibrant General] ultra spikey:
I havnt got the update yet, but for the past few days my 3G icon has been staying on when the Wifi is connected too.
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
Same

Not right now though. Weird
[Vibrant General] Emama:
Updated, but don't have such thing before the update
[Vibrant General] kmdub:
Now that you mention it...

Actually, I haven't update yet and I just noticed my 3G indicator staying on while on WiFi also. I don't recall it doing that before. Don't know if the two are related, but I will let you know what happens.
[Vibrant General] Master™:
I am using Bionix 1.7 (Based of the Official JI6) and my 3g Icon goes away
[Vibrant General] SSJ_Gomike:
Means you are receiving something from t-mobile....so essentially tmo was sending you the update, which is sent by the network....and I imagine since it was large is why it was on for a couple of days....

Send a mms from your phone while on wifi.....you will see your 3G come on to send the message then go away when done....
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
well I've yet to receive the update so I guess I'll look out for this when it does come...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark271:
It takes me several minutes to send a 50 KB image, if not longer.

I download over 500kbps from the Android market, yet it takes several minutes to download a 30 kb MMS.

I talked to T-Mobile and they said Android has issues with using WIFI, is that true?

My SIM card is literally 5 years old, I wonder if that is it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elite GunnerX:
I think MMS has to use OTA data...Its a carrier thing not a phone or android thing

(Correct me if I'm wrong someone)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natecglenn:
Well mine does that from time to time as well but I never received the update a of last night. So I don't think its related to the update. Usually I'd your connected to wifi and your phone detects that a signal (3g) is faster then itll connect to that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark271:
Yeah, I am aware. It is just that no matter how small the file is, it won't send.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cryptonyt3:
I notice when I send an mms, 3G takes over wifi, and when finished sending mms wifi comes back.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SSJ_Gomike:
Well whoever you talked to at Tmo that didn't answer this for you was a moron......

All mms and sms messages are sent over the network, regardless of wifi being on or not....

So even you are ay home connected to wifi, yet your actually signal strength to the network is low....it will take a while to send a mms...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matrx10503:
Dead topic probably but........I think T-Mobile situation a bit different....T-Mobile has Wifi Calling plan....and where i've read, you can send/receive messages over wifi.

http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm24195.xml

"Ability to send/receive SMS and MMS, and access Web2go over Wi-Fi."
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michaelk706:
Yea but you have to use T-mobile hot spot or their @home service.

Just install the WiFi Calling App. It's all over the place here. Do a search! :D
[Shift General] axelTP2:
Absolutely beautiful, RSargeant. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your experience back on the forum. Great!

What about the Windows Mobile side of the Shift, what are you using over there?

All the best!

Note: the second link that you provided leads to >HTC Shift > Shift General. Was it your intention to point only to the general surface or did you want to go deeper to a particular thread (as I expected) and the link is wrong?
[Shift General] RSargeant:
Thanks for that Axel. Link corrected.

On the WM side, I'm using the original German 6.1 ROM (5.2.1620, build 18125.0.4.2) (1.30.407.0 GER) which I've "soft" liberated. I'm tempted to try a hacked ROM, but ask myself what useful (to me) functionality I'd gain. GPS is seductive on that big screen, but my Eten X800 + CoPilot is already very good and there's no memory for maps. I can already surf and check my emails on the WM side whilst benefitting from the very long battery life when not running W7, so the risks don't bring me personally much benefit. I'll think about it.

That brings me to a good point. During this 4 month struggle, I had to ignore my usual urges to immediately upodate drivers as soon as Windows update announced them, especially device drivers. The Shift always worked before the update, and often didn't work afterwards. Case in point - I downloaded and installed the latest touchpad drivers. Afterwards, the ShagCTRL and Resolution buttons no longer worked. System restore... Newer drivers are not always better! Acronis and system restore are your friends!

[Shift General] RSargeant:
I bought mine secondhand from a local (Swiss) auction site. Shifts often appear on ebay, but take care to get the correct model. There are 2, the 9500 which is GSM and the 9501 which is the US CDMA model.

Good luck,

[Shift General] scocios:
What if W7 drivers are newer than the ones described in the W7 thread

Boot (F10) from the W7 installation stick and follow EXACTLY the process at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=513638. I downloaded and placed all drivers in individual folders preceded by the “a. b. etc.” to be sure of installing them in the correct order.

Hi, I have tried many times to get W7 working on the Shift but I have never been able to get it working flawlessly. I decided to try one more time once I saw your post. Question for you. I am using a Windows 7 Professional license that has a newer Intel VGA driver(7[1].14.10.1461) than the one included in the link quoted by you. Should I install the old driver? Did you ran into something like this?

Cheers
[Shift General] RSargeant:
Hi,

My Windows 7 DVD came from Technet, so although I didn't check the VGA version, I am sure it was the very latest and probably newer than the (b) driver mentioned. However I simply didn't encounter any problems when I installed a), b) c) etc as in the post. Installing the b) VGA driver almost certainly overwrote that newer driver. I did check both ShagCTRL and res switch at each stage and made checkpoints as I went, just to be sure.

What problems are you having exactly? W7 is so superior on Shift it's worth perservering. I've found that my usual habit of blindly updating to newest drivers is fatal with Shift. Rule is, when it's working, don't tinker and snapshot before all changes. Example, updating to latest touchpad controllers messed up both res switch and ShagCTRL. Only the originals from HTC restored order!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJ900RR:
So, I bought a Belkin Bluetooth receiver yesterday to get rid of my 5 meter (15 feet) cable to my amplifier. The devices pair up nicely and sweet music streams out of my loudspeakers.

But I notice that when Bluetooth is activated it can mess up my WiFi. If I have the phone laying down on the sofa or on my living room table its OK. But if I pick the phone up and if I have my hand on the upper half of the Desire, the music starts to lag and the WiFi disconnects and reconnects. It keep on doing that until I remove my hand. Have anyone else experienced this problem?

This is only 3 meters (9 feet) away from the Bluetooth receiver, noting blocking the signal. Also, I can not move away from the receiver more than 5 meters (15 feet). If so the reception is lost. Disappointing because it should be more like 10 meters or 30 feet before signal lost, at least with clear sight...

Currently I'm on Open Desire 4.0.34 and radio 5.10.05.23, but I have tried with both newer and older radio releases.

Just thinking, is the Desire poorly designed regarding the RF-area. Or is it my phone that is broken? Cause I use Spotify alot and I don't have room for almost all music in the world on my SD-card, so WiFi is important ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catdog:
I have the same, the WiFi areal seems to be located at the top half of the phone. You just need to hold it by the bottom half.
[Desire General] Zaphodski:
Is there a way of populating the calendar with this information?
[Desire General] Dragoon Knight:
Not in a stock ROM, no. There's an app available on the market called Sundroid which does an awesome job, though. They can be widget-ised, so you might be able to pop them on the same screen as your calendar.

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE WIKI

Its starting to get a little cluttered in these forums, and I'm seeing more and more threads asking what ROMs/Kernels are available, so I figured we should start a Sticky Wiki. It has worked well in other forums, but everyone needs to get on board and update it. Please list all notable contributions in the wiki. This is a much more convenient alternative to sticky posts!

Those of you who cook ROMs and kernels, please remember to update this when you release new versions. It'll make life easier for everyone here.

[Epic 4G Android Development] thematrixkid17:
I'm not a mod, and I didn't keep up to date on the drama surrounding that ROM. But I feel it's safe to say that the same rules apply to the wiki as they do to the forums, so if for whatever reason a mod didn't allow something on the forums it wouldn't be allowed on the wiki either.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
From what I understand, Baked Snack is allowed here, but only for the publicly released versions. No advertising for future versions or when it requires donations to get access.
[Epic 4G Android Development] art3mis-nyc:

to quote pulsar_g2:

i think thats more or less the gist, in regards to baked, since he wants to charge money for advanced copies(betas as it were) and others seem to be posting on his behalf.(bringin it up every now and again.)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] southplatte:
I'm just curious if your Vibrant has the hardware lock issue as well? I am wondering if there is a common element between that and the GPS not working.

I purchased two vibrants same day. They had different date codes on boxes. One had near zero gps function and was hardware locked, the other had good gps and was not hardware locked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheExpertNoob:
My Vibrant isnt hardware locked either and I can't even get a GPS lock outside. Ill be looking into this more later.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] southplatte:
Good to know they don't seem to tied to each other then. Definitely let us know what you find out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShanDestromp:
Its interesting you bring that up South, both my wife and I got our vibrants together, hers was two days "older" but was the one that was hardware locked though its gps was marginally better (getting a 40m lock in about 5 minutes vs. mine in 7-8 min). I wound up perma-bricking hers not realizing there were phones hardware locked like that. We exchanged it and got her one that's dated about a week after mine (so now mine is the "old"one ) yet no hardware lock on it. I know this is all circumstantial but it does indeed seem as if the hardware lock /gps issue is a flaw, not by design. Either way, running the stock JFD was **** on both, so I updated to JI2 and gps works great on them. I've since updated mine to Bionix 1.7 on mine and will be doing hers tomorrow.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00sivan:
After the JI6 update mine didn't work until I completely formatted everything and installed JFD with ODIN and checked repartition. Then installed JI6 over it with Odin without repartitioning.

Then I used lbstestmode and reset gps data. (I tried this before formatting and got nothing.)

After the format and gps reset I got lock after about 4 minutes outside. GPS is still weird sometimes but for the most part, turning the phone off and back on will result in a lock after 3-4 minutes.

hope that helps

There is a fix for the hardware locked phones? Are you talking about un bricking them or actually making it so you can get into recovery and download modes without using adb? And here I was thinking I was keeping fairly up to date with SGS development lol.

update didnt fix crap for me
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MV10:
Since OP says his GPS "is still way off" I suspect his GPS wasn't broken to start with. I believe the only thing they fixed was phones like mine for which the GPS did not work at all. And I mean that literally -- sometimes my GPS wouldn't even power on, and other times when it did, it would get a lock or even see more than one or two satellites. It was completely non-functional. Not just "way off".

Even after being "fixed" the GPS kind of sucks compared to a dedicated GPS or many other smart phones. Some have speculated this is because of the extremely thin form-factor and the type and placement of antennas. Maybe they used a cheap GPS chip, I don't really know.

But if it worked before (and one of our three phones did), from what I can tell there is no change with JI6.

j16 didn't fix gps (At&t sim)

I have a unlocked vibrant running on AT&T. Everything works but the GPS. CardioTrainer, Endomondo, and Google Maps aren't locking. Before the upgrade it did lock on to the gps, but extremely erratic. Tried the Labtest mod. and didn't get the phone to lock. Performed the upgrade and guess what? 0 gps locking. Not sure if the phone is hardware locked or if the fact that its not lockin in has something to do with the phone being on AT&T (which i doubt). After j16 update, I can't access Labtest mode either. any ideas?

Hi,

My brother has a Hero which doesnt work very well, we had been trying to update to the latest firmware but were unable to do so, after we did a factory reset we realised that there was already a custom ROM on there, (the phone was purchased from ebay) below are the details :

Firmware Version: 1.5

Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18

Kernel Version: 2.6.27-mck-1.2

(root@vmware-intrepid-x64)

Build Number:

Modaco Custom Rom 2.8 core, ssh

Password: 9mzxij

The phone works terribly and is almost unusable due to the ROM version i believe.

Ive never rooted or put a custom ROM on an Android phone before. I dont know if it would be easier to Unroot the phone and put the standard ROM on there so I can update it to 2.1, or put on another custom ROM.

Your help and guidance is greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

oops, thats a good point, the phone is on orange, and to be honest i think id prefer it unbranded.
