great, thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
gfree needs to be run as root. So you need to be either temp root or permanent root or it won't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
I don't think this is correct. See http://tjworld.net/wiki/Android/HTC/Vision/EmmcPartitioning , where it says that the system and userdata partitions are different sizes on the two phones, which are partitions 10 and 13, plus the DZ has an additional partition.

So I don't think the partition 18 thing is correct.

I don't think it's safe to say that you might just have to reflash certain partitions if you install the wrong hboot. Do we have actual evidence for this, e.g. someone who has tried this ? The source I quoted earlier suggests it might have worse effects than that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lightningtrip:
could or would someone post the commands to perform this thru the phones terminal emulator please, I have no access to adb currently, thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Copy the gfree program over to the phone, e.g. onto the sdcard (mount the sd card onto the PC by connecting the phone in "Disk Drive" mode, or put the SD card into your PC).

Then, assuming the gfree program is in /sdcard, do this in a terminal emulator window (you need to have either temp root or permanent root for this) :

$ su
# cd /sdcard
# chmod 777 gfree
# ./gfree
# sync

What is "RAGE" and where is a link to download it. I keep seeing "use Rage instead of Visionary" but I never see anything with a link.

Sorry if this is in the wrong thread.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lightningtrip:
Thanks! But it didnt work for me, I seem to be missing "brq filter"?

"Searching for brq filter....

-****WARNING****: did not find brq filter!

Patching and backing up partition 7..."

then the phone reboots on its own, before sync?

That's odd :confused:

What ROM are you running exactly ? What phone exactly ?

I am running Enoms on my G2

I wonder if that's some sort of incompatibility with that ROM then ? :confused:

I'm a newbie here. I don't mind the ads in principal, but the ads that drop down when I accidently pass over them I find an intrusion and very annoying. What makes them bad news in my opionion is that they often sit there and are hard to get rid of. Frustrating or what?

Surely this site is not that desperate. Some of them seem to be designed especially to irritate users. And no X button. Surely we could at least insist on an escape route.

It's not the point. What is more, some people are here just to look around and may not get any benefit at all.

I've been a site administrator also - ads generate income and can allow more benefit to users.

But I've never had this trouble before on any other such site. I'm fine with the ads per se, but some of these are very very annoying in products that I'm not at all interested in and being jammed down my neck - with no escape, that's the irritating bit!

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daewond3r:
I just exchanged my black MT4G due to dust under the screen and a strange gap on the backside (under the headphone jack) between the metal and the soft-touch material.

I had the salesperson pull out 2 different black MT4Gs and they all had that gap. We compared it with the white floor demo and there was no gap. What gives?? Is it just the black or the colored devices?

Anyway, I left with a new one with gap since apparently it's just a design flaw. I guess I should've asked around here before I went in to exchange it.

Hopefully the Epik case is out soon. If not I guess I'll need another case quickly. I don't want to find out the hard way that the gap leaves the phone vulnerable.

I hate that my beloved brand new phone isn't built as well as I first thought. Ah well, nothing a case won't fix I suppose. I still love it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnflct:
no gap on my black device, pried my case off to check, clear of any oddities
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alculbreth:
yup, same here. Black one with no gap.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pack:
no gap (blk) but you should take a pic cus it'd be nice to see exactly what your talking about (the way you said it makes it sound like you can fall into it lol)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdxrealtor:
No gap here. Black model.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spudge:
Whaddya know, my Red has a minute gap just under the headphone jack

If you hadn't said anything I wouldn't have noticed. Less than 1 mm
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daewond3r:
Glad I'm not the only one (sucks for both of us though).

I'll try to get a pic of it later today. It's definitely not big enough to "fall into" but it's there and big enough for me worry about dust, lint, or moisture getting in there. When I hold it to any light source I can clearly see where the metal forms around the headphone jack.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cal3thousand:
No gap by the headphone jack on my current white MT4G

but my first 2, white and black, both had imperfections on the metallic ring. They both had areas where they were not straight which created a gap if you looked at it the right (or wrong :p) way.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XfooYen:
My black MT has a tiny gap where you described. My wife's MT has the exact same imperfection. It's really narrow, though. Less than .5mm. My thought is this: It will cause no foreign particle issue any more than the speaker grill perforations or the headphone jack itself. This thing ain't water-tight (that's what she said) :eek:but I don't foresee any problem with it.

[Omnia 7 General] at45:
My Omnia 7 keeps loosing it's 3G connection. To restore it I have to restart the phone. T-Mobile say that this happens from time to time, but it's happening every day now. It's annoying as it stops my push email from being up to date, and of course prevents the use of any internet based services until the phone is restarted.

Has anyone else noticed their phone has switching to GSM?
[Omnia 7 General] saldawop:
Had mine for 6 days.Been fine up until today,then I had the same problem.Only the once so far.
[Omnia 7 General] lhof:
Confirm loosing 3G

Confirm loosing 3G connection, and also have phone call failures.

Factory reset did not solve the problem.

Bring it back to shop :mad:

Blackstone is back now!
[Omnia 7 General] at45:
At first this was occasional with my phone, then more frequent, and it's all the time. If I want to use the Internet I have to restart the phone. My house is covered by full HSPA, but the only way to get it is to take the battery out while the phone is switched on. I can sometimes get 3G by a simple restart, which I lasts about 40 minutes.

I like the phone, so I'm going to hold out for a software update. All it needs to do is check available networks and I think that, if this is a wide spread issue, Samsung/Microsoft will fix it. Hope so.

Please post here if you have this issue too.
[Omnia 7 General] Darknight247:
I have also been having this issue... sometimes it doesnt come back straight away when i restart it but after about 10mins its back.

When I activated it with orange I was told to expect a few txt msg's that would need deleting and the phone restarting... I only got 1 msg, maybe this has something to do with it, maybe the phone hasnt been sent enough updates.
[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
I also have this issue and have done for weeks. Orange couldn't solve it either.

It only happens overnight at home. I either need to reset the phone / rescan available networks or turn flight mode off and on again for the connection to restore.

I was thinking it may be an issue with t-mobile since it only happens at my home where orange signal is poor and i roam over to t-mobile.

If i stay in an area with good Orange signal i don't get the problem.

Good to know i'm not the only one with this problem. It's very annoying!
[Omnia 7 General] Doorknob:
Hi y'all.

I had the same problem: 3G was lost every time. I was fed up restarting the phone every time, so I looked for another way to get 3G back. I found out that disabling and enabling SIM security (phone > setttings) got me 3G again... for a short while.

But: after disabling SIM security permanently, 3G kept on going (in fact for over a week now).

I think that changing the PIN to some other number, might cause this. I haven't yet tried changing it to the default PIN again, to see if using that for SIM security solves it. For the moment I'm too happy it works again.
[Omnia 7 General] Loconinja:
I have suffered from poor reception issues ever since I got my Omnia 7.

It seems like the reception comes and goes. I will receive e-mails, which proves that the phone has been connected, but as soon as I try to use data myself, by visiting a web page or refreshing an app like facebook, the reception disappears and the "no reception" symbol drops down from the status bar.

Also, often when I try to send an SMS, it will appear to have been sent, yet 10 minutes later I will receive a "Can't send...try again" message. Once I have received this, the SMS will never successfully send. However, in the meantime I can receive SMS messages, which shows that the phone has been getting a signal.

This is SO frustrating and is ruining my experience with the phone.

I have posted requests on the Microsoft Answers forum and the only suggestions have been to reset the phone or turn WiFi off. Neither of these have had any effect. I have never enabled SIM lock.

I have heard that there is a firmware update due soon which includes a new radio stack. I am desperately hoping that this will improve the situation, as at the moment I cannot rely on my Omnia 7 as my only phone.

Alex.
[Omnia 7 General] VonCrisp:
Hi Loco,

You are right in saying that social answers doesn't really help much :P.

Luckily there IS a new firmware from a couple of days ago! Check out the Omnia 7 Dev section. There are only a few posts.

And here is also a good link for you. You are right to assume that it comes with a new radio stack which improves on performance.

[Omnia 7 General] johnnymatrix:
Finally found a thread on this... I have been having a similar problem since I got my phone from Optus here in Australia. I took it back and they replaced it for me but the new phone is exactly the same. I don't lose the 3G icon but anything data related just ceases from loading. Right now I'm trying to refresh the Facebook app and it just comes up with 'Unable to connect', even though I have full 3G reception.

I flashed it to the newer leaked firmware and it hasn't changed anything, problem still persists unfortunately. This is a major problem that isn't getting enough attention! It seems quite widespread and Omnia 7 specific.
[Omnia 7 General] c2d:
Had similar problems, but after I changed my provider ( O2-Germany), 3G is stable.
[Omnia 7 General] slysy:
For the people having this problem, have you tried setting the phone to prefer 3g? Details of how to do this are here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=915813

Same here man. On Optus and my reception sucks with this device. What the hell is samsung doing? FIX IT!
[Omnia 7 General] m4tthall:
I have been having this problem with my Omnia 7. The frustrating thing is this is a replacement phone I had for an LG which I had replaced THREE TIMES due to random resets. So now I have a phone that I have to turn off and on EVERY MORNING in order for the data connection to start working again. Needless to say I am very frustrated. I am on Orange in the UK. I suspect it could be related to when being an a poor reception area and it tries to switch to tmobile. I am going to try turning roaming off. Please, if anyone finds a solution to this let me know.

Thanks
[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
My problem got worse with the Mango update. I'm now on my 2nd handset after having a replacement from Orange warranty. This one still loses it's connection but much less frequently.

TBH i don't think it will ever get fixed. I started an MS Answers thread months ago and lots of people had the same problem but we never got a response from MS.

Conisdering the age of the model now I doubt Samsung care, well they didn't seem to care a year ago so they won't now... For this reason I will not buy another Samsung phone. It's infuriating.
[Omnia 7 General] m4tthall:
Looks like I am stuck with it until December then when I can upgrade to a Nokia lumia. A long wait :-(
[Omnia 7 General] unbenannt:
i have this issue, too.. but for me i only have to set airplane mode on and off. sometimes i deactivate data connection, go to a random website, get the 'no connection' error, then activate data connection back and it works.

however, after installing the latest drivers & firmware, i get this issue A LOT less frequent. like once in 2-3 days.

i hope ms or samsung will fix this because it can get really annoying. especially when you need eg. a quick google-search..
[Omnia 7 General] m4tthall:
Just flicking the flight mode wouldn't be so bad but that doesn't work for me, I have to restart the phone each time. I love WP7 but this and the other problems with the LG is driving me nuts. Almost wondering whether I should have just followed the crowd and gone for an iPhone.
[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
Same as me - Flicking flight mode on-off doesn't solve it, needs a soft-reset.

Like I say, there are quite a few with Omnias on Orange with this problem.

I'm in the same boat, I've had this for months now so I guess I'll just deal with it until I can upgrade the start of April and get a Lumia (hopefully the EU 900/910 will be here by then!). There is no way on this earth Samsung are getting any more of my money. Nokia seem fully commited so they can take my cash next time!
[Omnia 7 General] davecmr:
I have the same problem with the data stopping working on o2 in the UK. But I also sometimes cant receive calls even though the phone has service, then there are the times where it site there going GPRS/3G/3G+/No Service and you cant do anything with it apart from pull the battery.
[Omnia 7 General] m4tthall:
Same phone?
[Omnia 7 General] davecmr:
Yeah Omnia 7, my trusty old nokia 6310 works phone is on o2 as well and that can have full service and the omnia is sat there with no service. Its a lovely phone but god its not half useless at times!

I posted a suggestion on that thread - switching off the auto network profile did the trick for me...
[Omnia 7 General] :
Hi,

by "switching off the auto network profile" do you mean setting the Settings >> System >> Mobile Network to a specific network (not using the "automatic" option) ?

If not, could you explain what you did to fix the problem?

Thanks
[Omnia 7 General] amaric:
I am having this problem since I bought the phone a year ago. It preferes 3G to a point where it has very low signal...so low that data won't work but it still won't switch to EDGE. That is why I had to switch to EDGE as highest connection speed. Now it works fine, but slow.
[Omnia 7 General] Moukit:
I have the same problem and I post on your thread ;)
[Omnia 7 General] johnny.g:
well what I thought - was that switching off the "automatic switching" would help.. and indeed it seemed to.. but then the 3g went altogether :-(

so back to square one :-(
[Omnia 7 General] suryaksp:

when i loose the Cellular signal and gains it back.. all my data services are not working.

[Omnia 7 General] Freypal:
Hey yeh I had tried that as well to no avail. I tried it with data roaming on and off and it makes no difference either.

That MS answers thread is now the most discussed un-answered problem on the whole site.
[Omnia 7 General] Bocko92:
Any idea if hard reset solves the problem?

Or changing / updating the rom?

btw, i seem to have MUCH less trouble with the 3g if i turn it off / on less.
[Omnia 7 General] Dubidibo:
Awesome! It worked perfectly for me! Now my phone stopped losing its 3G band!

The solution was so simple, no one else tried it??

Just go in the diagnostic menu (by entering ##634# in the phone's dialer) and enter *#2263#, then select WCDMA then all!

Slysy you're my new hero!

Cheers
[Omnia 7 General] massifheed:
Not sure if anyone else on Three UK has tried this, but I just did and found that afterward I couldn't send or recieve any data at all.

I changed the setting back to Automatic, restarted the phone and still couldn't get a data connection. In the end I've just had to hard reset the phone.
[Omnia 7 General] Dubidibo:
Wooooo seriously????? I'm on the French supplier Free Mobile, and everything works really fine since I did it. I changed the setting while the 3G was working - perhaps it could explain why I didn't loose the band?

But it's quite weird - the tip Slysy gave was originally for switching 2G/3G and no one in the post had a brand break...
[Omnia 7 General] wp7calendar:
same issue

well i though it was my provider that had some problem with 3G but this post, it looks it s the omnia

As it's been said the best solution i have found is to reboot the phone to recover 3G. When i keep 3g on it's ok, but when i swap from 3G to wifi and then wifi to 3G, i can reconnect.

Too bad for this problem as i really like this phone
[Omnia 7 General] slysy:
Sorry you had so many problems with this. My phone is 3UK branded (although I'm not using a 3UK sim) and I didn't have this issue.

It get's worse

My problem seems a bit worse than the intermittent drops other people are getting. From yesterday evening I can't connect to any 3G/H networks at all, both on 3 Ireland and O2 UK/Ireland. I can connect to 2G networks fine.

I've tried the diagnosis solution posted, resetting the phone (both hard and soft) and flashing a new ROM (mi7) and none of these done anything.

It just seemed to stop working completely randomly. Has anyone any idea?

Update: Just stuck another O2 UK sim card in it and it had 3G connectivity. Network carrier problem maybe?
