I guess the Chinese can make some amazing Android apps

There are quite a few Miren/MIUI browser threads on XDA, so forgive me if you are following more than one and seeing multiple posts from me. I just thought I'd share this alternative with people interested in unique mobile browser experiences.

If you have read any of my posts here or at the MIUI forums, you'll know that I am pretty high on the Miren browser. I think they did a stand up job creating this thing and it will only get better. Up until yesterday, I felt like this was the best mobile browser I had used. Then I discovered the UC Mobile Browser. Now, I will be ditching DolphinHD and Opera and keeping Miren and UC.

Check out my post here on UC. It is worth a look. Options drive competition which drives development! :)
[Desire HD General] mancuk29:
I have created a new topic as I feel this one is important and don't want it to get lost in the ether.

I've noticed if you hold the phone in a normal way and it doesn't matter if its left or right hand the signal and WiFi will drop , when you change your grip signal goes back to normal .

IPhone problem on a HTC ?
[Desire HD General] Basil3:
Just picked up my phone. Full WiFi signal. Full mobile signal.
[Desire HD General] Trifidw:
I can make wifi drop to 1 bar by holding the top half of the phone. Base of thumb on the volume control, top of thumb covering the power button and palm touching the camera. Releasing it, the signal will jump straight up. But who smothers their phone anyway?
[Desire HD General] teihoata:
+1 I can simulate this as well. At least its not at the bottom where your more likely to hold it in a call
[Desire HD General] mordetus:
It's not that simple. I'll bet there isn't a phone with an internal antenna that wouldn't drop a few bars anywhere when held in hand. Point is that the singal strenght in iphone 4 drops significantly more than in any other phone.

So does the DHD have the same antenna problem than iphone4? The only way to find out is to test in serval locations that will the DHD drop the signal when iphone 4 doesn't when the phones are held in hand. Comparing bars is pointless becouse it's calculated in so many different ways in various phones.
[Desire HD General] berek9999:
All phones suffer from this to some extent. The problem with the iPhone is that the metal part of the aerial is on the outside of the phone so that you are actually touching the aerial with your skin, which is why it's such as issue. At least HTC have a bit more design sense.
[Desire HD General] SW7:
+1 The problem in iPhone 4 is due to the design of the phone - it uses the chassis as the aerial but the DHD is not designed to work in the same way.
[Desire HD General] lynxboy:
I noticed that holding the TOP of the phone with your hand cupping the back causes WiFi signal to drop when in medium to low signal strength areas and also the Network signal to drop by up to 2 bars. Apple were keen to point out that many handsets have issues with signal degradation when holding the phone, however generally this is NOT while holding it at the bottom, the natural way of holding a phone.

So while the Desire HD will suffer a signal drop when held with your hand cupped around the top of the phone, it doesn't suffer the iPhone 'death grip' which imo is still a MAJOR issue with a handset that is perfect in many other ways. Put it simply, I've not dropped any calls with the DHD!!

Regards.
[Desire HD General] apprentice:
OMG I can't believe someone asking this question!

Next it will be someone reporting "Why can't I access the Apple app store on this device?!"
[Desire HD General] mancuk29:
Your having a laugh aren't u ... hate Apple with all my might .. just concerned we would have same problems ! Hold my phone different so I don't
[Desire HD General] lynxboy:
It's a good question and one I was considering asking myself after noticing it while browsing in bed. I sleep at the opposite end of the house to my router and can easily cut the connection while holding the phone at the top.

I think with the current trend of slimmer phones the issue will be highlighted more frequently as it is now a necessity to make use of the phone casing in regards to signal transmission. It's a known fact that the DHD unibody is part of the functioning antenna, so it's not suprising that you can produce the effect when cupping the phone.

Thankfully HTC have placed the module in the top of the phone and not the bottom like our good friends in Cupertino! :-)
[Desire HD General] Dyonas:
Nothing here when I try the methods mentioned. The signal stays very strong. It's been flicking between H and 3G but that's nothing to do with the phone, pure T-Mobile thing.
[Desire HD General] Carphedon:
I have a desire z and just googled for this grip problem and found this thread.

I have quite a bit of trouble with my desire z, it drops two bars while calling. It even gets worse when you slide out the keyboard and start typing. The wifi and gsm/3g signal drops 2/3 bars!

This kind of sucks...
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
Has anyone had dropped calls due to this issue? If no, then there is no problem. Lowering the signal strength is normal, dropped calls aren't.
[Desire HD General] jorjino2000:
In my device there is a little signal drop, but no drop calls at all!

"Drop calls" are a trade mark of iPhone4. ;-)
[Desire HD General] Carphedon:
No dropped calls yet but 3g/hsdpa switches to gprs when holding it.
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
Well that's still a connection ;) I know that it's slower and that's something you can feel unlike switching a voice call from UMTS to GSM, but it's not a drop. The higher frequency of 3G is more prone to signal attenuation and nothing can change that.
[Desire HD General] Waaa:
Hi all from Russia.

I have the same problem.

When the phone is on the table, the signal level WiFi and GSM 100% (A router in the half meter away from me)

Whenever I put it on your hand or touch the side cover, the level of WiFi drops to zero and GSM is not as critical, but falls to 2-3 division

I'm not saying if I go into another room, where the signal disappears altogether.(WiFi)

Do you think that this might be?

Bad soldering?
[Desire HD General] tkolev:
Check if the battery cover is closed properly. In the room where my WiFi router is, the signal drops 1-2 bars but it's still strong. I've read some reviews on 802.11n routers that claim the signal is actualy worse if you are too close to the router (can't check this myself as I am with a 802.11g router).
[Desire HD General] Waaa:
Dude, I checked a hundred times that damn cover

in the next room the signal disappears altogether, although on a different device everything is fine!

I tried to switch the router in different modes, the effect is the same.
[Desire HD General] nmyseteroious:
The DHD definitely have the grip problem, especially if you cover the batter cover or the sim cover. As stated in the manual, and you can see it by yourself, the antennas are located on the covers itself (because they can't put it in the aluminum body, there is a similar thread explaining this). As far as I know, the drop in signal is not as apparent as the Iphone4. I guess a case would help like the iphone4 if you don't want any drop at all.

It just says there is an error, nothing in particular and I cant make sense of the log except for it saying that strings in public.xml are not defined even though all I edited was the strings.xml... could you try for me?

I have tried it with the translation in the other thread there where some error's in the xml

using apktool every thing went fine , but it will not install because resources.arsc is not signed. tried to sign the apk, but no luck.
[Desire General] GU5TAF:
Okay, weird that I can't get it to work... I'm using Apk Manager 4.9 so that's basically apktool behind it so really there shouldn't be any issues. I've corrected the errors and fixed some translation hiccups in my xml so it's a litlle cleaner but apart from that it's the same as the one in the other post.

Why is it apps like Google maps etc allow the phone to goto sleep.

Surprised they don't have the option to prevent this?

I am going to have an accident while re-swyping the phone as the screen dimm's again.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
The navigation app doesn't allow the phone to go into sleep for me. Maybe it's because I always have external power when I use it, but I don't think so.

My Goognav stays awake without a power source too!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] krat0s123:
i can confirm that the nav application doesn't sleep on my HD2.. so must be the settings on your phone?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Don001:
I've been using co-pilot now for a few days and given the navigation system in the Android build a go to, mine does sleep when I'm just viewing the streets and haven't activated any sort of navigation route, but when I enter a destination, it stays active, so as stated above, it could be within your settings perhaps.
[Vibrant General] moncapitane:
Has anyone gotten 3g to work with a samsung vibrant on t-mobile network. I tried setting up with the settings which work in 2.1 but this is not working:

mmsc: http : // mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

mmc: 310

mnc: 260

apn type internet+mms

The only one that shows is ATT but I do not have a att sim card so this is not going to work. I have tried turning on and off the airplane mode but this did not work. Anyone get around this issue when upgrading to 2.2 beta?
[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
lemme guess, you're using the Bell Vibrant, right? With the hard menu key?

If that's the case, you won't get 3g on TMO, and you're using an i9000
[Vibrant General] moncapitane:
Bell vibrant? What do you mean by that? I purchased this phone through tmob when it cam out. It does not have a hard home key. They are all touch buttons.
[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
then if you can't get 3g to work, either your phone is defective, or you live in an area that TMO doesn't yet offer 3g coverage. There's no work involved in getting 3g to work on the phone. it's automatic.
[Vibrant General] ryangera:
That sucks man. Call tmo support and have them check your area. You shouldn't have to set anything up to get a 3g signal.
[Vibrant General] dntipwn:
For the first day I had some issues with my 3G but I messed with the apn and it works great I've had the phone for a few weeks and always have coverage. Check to see what you apn is at?
[Vibrant General] moncapitane:
No, I have 3G normally if i use the 2.1 but when I upgrade to the 2.2 beta rom, I do not have access to 3G. I was hoping someone could help with this. I do see a number of posts saying people had to add this manually but I tried and it did not work. Anyone seen this in the US?

[EVO 4G General] Bargsbeer:
Why is it abuse??? It's called "UNLIMITED" Data how can you abuse it? If it's not unlimited then Sprint should stop telling customers it's unlimited, It has nothing to do with a e-penis (If that's even a word) It's the customer getting what they pay for "UNLIMITED DATA" Plain and simple.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
I could post a picture of my bill, but im too lazy. I used alittle over 5gb last month, probably a lot less now since I have wifi in the house. I guess my e-penis isnt that impressive at the moment.
[EVO 4G General] scev5:
Except your probably doing most of your data while tethering for free. Why do you think they charge the fee. Its way to tempting to go crazy with 4g tethering. Its faster than my cable....

There is a difference between unlimited data on your phone and unlimited internet through your pc.

You guys are not only effing us over, your encouraging other people to by making it competitive with this thread.
[EVO 4G General] donloki:
I hit 8.9 gigs last month mainly due to subsonic and vlc streaming movies to my phone. I don't have a laptop so no tethering.

My phone is always on Wifi whenever I'm at home. I rarely use it for tethering, and occasionally use it for Pandora. If Grooveshark's Android app didn't suck, I'd use it for that, too.
[EVO 4G General] aweskelo:
when they go tiered or impose a "soft" cap, remember this thread as a "told you so"...

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gremlyn1:
The new YouTube.apk just needs to be placed in '/system/app'. What I did was remove the original YouTube.apk and put the new one in its place and voila. Here is the method adapted for Windows (I think it's all right for Windows). This is also assuming you rooted with a one click root that included the remount script and that you have adb on your computer (the one click rooter should have adb included with it).

1. in the cmd prompt, go to the folder where you have adb and type:

adb.exe shell

2. inside shell:

$ su
# remount rw
# mkdir /sdcard/backup
# cp /system/app/YouTube.apk /sdcard/backup
# rm /system/app/YouTube.apk
# exit
$ exit

3. now in the cmd prompt again:

adb.exe push \path\to\YouTube.apk /system/app

4. Reboot the phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] betterment66:
ok i get to remount rw but the when i type in the nect code it says

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Flying_Fox:
I install it using terminal emulator.

All I do is type

Su

#rm /system/app/YouTube.apk

#cp /sdcard/DirectoryWithTheYoutubeApp/YouTube.apk /

system/app

Or after you rm, just use the "My Files" app and go on your sdcard and click YouTube.apk and it'll install and work fine. But remember to sign out of youtube before you close it by going to your page and clicking sign out or else it'll keep force closing after you start it up.

I hope I helped...
