Didn't realise it supported 3G T-Mobile USA roaming. That is definitely another point in its favour over the Samsung. This has put my decision making process back to square one...
[Venue Pro General] SingaporeAirlines:
Got a voicemail from Orange UK today - probably the upgrades team. "After investigations" they have no release date for the Venue Pro. It could either be in testing (e.g.: some Orange engineers are unnecssarily fiddling about with the phone/software/painting an Orange logo on it) or it may not be released at all.

Probably the former.
[Venue Pro General] quinstar:
Hmm, I was just wondering about sniffing around the net if there would be any news about a european release...

Fingers crossed for some good news... Maybe I'll need to twitter Dellcares or Lionel...
[Venue Pro General] GeneNZ:
Anybody else order the DVP from the Dell.co.uk website?

I put my order in on 2/3/2011. Expected delivery date is 10/3/2011.

Went back to check the website just now to see if the prices changed (they had free delivery until 2/3/2011... now that its 3/3/2011, I wondered if anything new was offered), and although the DVP product site is there, you can't get any further when you choose "Select this"... almost like its disappeared!... Ominous signs?

I'm taking a huge risk with the DVP, especially with the crashing issues I hear about. But we'll see. I've never seen the phone in real life, but most review websites says its the best Windows Phone device out (if it works 100% of the time). Either way, I checked the cancellation policy and Dell UK give 7 working days for a full refund. We'll see how it goes.

There simply isn't any other WP7 phone out there that I like in the UK. I would have gone with the Omnia 7, but with 8GB it's just too small. Ideally I would have chosen a Samsung Focus, but its not offered here.

One bonus with the DVP in the UK is it costs only £5 to get another full year warranty. Another omninous sign?! who knows ;).
[Venue Pro General] Crimson Lotus:
Have you take a look at the new HTC 7 Pro? I heard from a review that it has the best QWERTY Keyboard so far... Might wanna check it out. If not, Why not call Dell and check up on your Order.
[Venue Pro General] GeneNZ:
To be honest I've been waiting for the DVP for a while.

I know I want WP7, but the current range of devices are pretty limited really. Other than the DVP, all the rest of pretty 'normal' I suppose.

I'm waiting it out, it only has been a few days yet. I'll update the board with my findings.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tkoh76:
Hi. I have what seems like a rooted nexus one and I've been getting notifications for 2.2.1 update but keeps aborting when I attempt to. I don't care so much about this upgrade as I'm waiting for the gingerbread but would this problem also continue when gingerbread OTA appears?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Yes. If you want to receive OTA - you need to restore to stock recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josemedina1983:
I barely got my N1 yesterday I didn't feel like been stuck in a 2 year plan for the nexus s I didn't think it was worth it. Any how Any tips on what should I do to my Nexus 1? is it worth rooting it and also I been looking for a carbon fiber case but can't find one :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lightning N1:
Options

If you update to a more recent version of custom ROM they have edited it to prevent the OTA notifications. If you can live with it for now then just update to a custom Gingerbread ROM you will be good to go. Otherwise I agree you have to restore to stock recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tkoh76:
thanks. How do I restore to stock recovery?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I wouldn't normally disagree with Jack, but if you have a stock ROM, I would say that if you can look in your cache folder on the phone and find the update zip. Move the update to SD, and then flash through your custom recovery.

Depending on which recovery you have you may have to toggle signature verification...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tkoh76:
Thanks danger-rat. I am very new to the smart phone world and to be quite honest with you not very savy when comes to tech related stuff. I came across this phone from craigslist which apparently is a dev edition phone and the only thing I know regarding this phone is build number frf91 kernel 2.6.32.9-27227-g3c98b0d android -build@apa26#1.

The only thing I want to do is able to upgrade my phone OTA when it comes available.

Please provide detailed explanation if you don't mind as to how to do just that.

Thanks in advance

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tkoh76:
After researching, I believe my nexus is actually not rooted because I don't see any padlock when rebooting my phone so I'm wandering why when I do get the notification for update 2.2.1 it keeps aborting.....?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Padlock denotes an unlocked bootloader, which doesn't mean you are our aren't rooted, it just means you have more options to install your OS.

Rooting can be checked by opening terminal emulator apps, and typing "su" - if the prompt changes from $ to #, then you're rooted(i.e. You have root access to the file system).

Update requires stock recovery to update automatically, but you can install manually with a custom recovery.

If you really want just stock, the easiest way is to follow the unroot/restore guide in the wiki, but you will lose your data and settings...

I need to find my password for my wifi connection as I can't for the life of me remember what it is. I am still connected and I know it will be stored in a file somewhere on my phone.

I've looked around with root explorer but to no avail. Does anyone know what this file is named at all?

Cheers guys :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonesWTF:
In case anyone is wondering, I found the file.

You will need root to get to the correct directory: data/misc/wifi. The password is stored in a file called wpa_supplicant.conf
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Or obtain it from your routers gateway maintenance interface via your browser.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonesWTF:
Yeah, tried that first off. I found out that my ever so funny flat mate had changed the security password on it for a laugh while he went away on holiday.

[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
I dont know what I am doing wrong but I find the sound level extremely poor for calls

I tried with a bluetooth headset, the outside speaker and the jack with my mp3 headset

it's pretty weird since when I play videos or music I am impressed by how loud I can push the Tab...

I am on AT&T with JMC (but was the same on JM6). And I set the sound at max

anybody has the same issue? Am I doing something wrong? Or is there any sound booster app for calls? (and is it necessary?)

Thanks for your help
[Galaxy Tab General] BuglessFan:
My Tab isn't phone-enabled, but since you're new to Android, I thought I should point out that there are multiple volume settings, and in-call volume is one of them. Menu Key -> Settings -> Sound Settings -> Volume should give you all the sliders (Ringtone, Media, Alarm, System, Notification...). There are apps/widgets too that let you get to/change these settings without having to go into the settings menu every time (audio manager has been a decent widget for me). Until you're actually in the call the hardware rocker is usually doing the ringtone or media volume.

When I use mine with Skype 60% is usually blaringly loud for me, and I don't even have the system or media volume maxed out.

Sorry if it's something you know you've done, but thought it might help. If not, maybe someone else has had the same issue and solved it.
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
yes this I had figured out and set at the maximum :)

Everything non call related is really strong... It's conversation from normal calls that is ridiculously low :(
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Am I the only one ?? What's wrong with my tab ?
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Anyone with an opinion about this ?
[Galaxy Tab General] DonDerham:
Voice-enabled on AT&T with JM6. Have good results with the built-in speakers and cheap Nokia BH-214 stereo Bluetooth earbuds. I ordered the OEM earbuds, but I do understand that the 3.5mm jack port in finicky. Is your Bluetooth 2.1 or newer? Do you have many open applications when trying to place or receive calls? I've notice the sound stutter a bit on the speakers when I've got several apps open.
[Galaxy Tab General] ishtangli:
Here's something I noticed, when in call using my BT Headset, the volume slider sometimes says its on max but the output isnt. Try to lower or increase your volume. Once you hear the max level beep, it gets louder.

Im on a SingTel Tab by the way.
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Thank you, will try right away

Edit: yeah I can definitely reduce the volume but my max was my actual max. As anybody tried to compare the volume on the speaker when playing music whith the volume on the speaker when on a call... It's like 5 to 10 times higher volume on a call !! And then same issue on a headset :(
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
As mentioned I tried it with everything I could... The default external speaker, a simple stereo headset (Not bluetooth), a bluetooth headset. They all give the same. Low volume :(
[Galaxy Tab General] stefanopolis:
If you don't like volume in speaker, headset, bluetooth....You can change settings in "hidden" Audio menu. There you can change volume of individual ouput, but be careful!!!!!

Before change anything, make sure you can put it back the same number if you are not satisfied or have problem ..so wright it somewhere anything you wish to change.

Good Luck with experiment. If I remember correctly(from my old Samsung i780-Windows phone) "TX" settings is for output and "RX" for imput, but I can be wrong, so be careful.
[Galaxy Tab General] ishtangli:
what I do is, when in a call, I lower the volume by about 2, then increase it until i hear the max volume beep. The moment i hear it, the volume on my headset usually jumps up.
[Galaxy Tab General] 09CarreraS:
I have the same problem with the speaker volume. At maximum you cannot hear it. The bluetooth seems to work OK. IIRC JK5 software seemed to work correctly.
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
So I guess for you too, music or movies play with a high volume on the speakers whereas for calls it's rather low volume ?

Yes bluetooth or headset I can hear but still quite low volume compared with music...
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
My problem is specifically for calls. Anything else is fine and working well. That's the weird issue... I dont want to boost the volume for anything else!
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
That's pretty weird... I have been playing with the tab and I found out that for calls, the highest level I can have (by hear) is two notches below the highest. That's by far the loudest I get (If I push higher the sound decreases)

Am I the only one ? It really pisses me off.... I don't know how it can be like that (I am on JMC ROM after flashing a JM6 ROM over the JK5 from Russia (I am on an AT&T Tab flashed to get phone working)

Someone else get the same experience ?
[Galaxy Tab General] pakalrtb:
I can confirm that the max 'in call' volume is two notch below the max !!! And I have the same tab/setting of the OP.
[Galaxy Tab General] shollywood:
Aren't there some codes you can enter to adjust the volume level on calls and music, etc.?? like the Galaxy S?
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Thanks ! Ina sense I am a littel bit relieved to see I am not the only one !

Such a stupid bug. Come on Samsung...
[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
FYI it is fixed with the firmware JME

Sound level is much more acceptable and the highest level is not anymore two notched below the max

Sorry I am new to this. I am trying to load android market to my g tablet. I have gotten the instructions from another thread but it says to make sure I have the market working with my Google ID. Since I do not have an android phone and have never been to the android site I am not sure if my Google ID will work. I have tried downloading the android market apk from xda but if just flashes on the screen when I press it. Can someone steer me straight. :confused:
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jimcpl:
Which apk did you get? You're going to need two, GoogleFrameworkServices.apk and Vending.apk. Also, I don't think you can just click on them, but need to move/copy them to /system/app.

Jim
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] guitar geek:
Thanks jimcpl

As you can guess I am still lost. I did not know I needed two apk's. That explains why the instructions for adding the market app says to turn Googleframeworkservices's off. I don't have it.

I have Googled Googleframeworkservices.apk and got a couple of listings for forms that discussed it but none of them had a download of it.

The Android Market apk I got was from this page in the xda forms

[Streak 5 General] Terrigno:
Hello all. Ok, I had my Streak on Froyo 2.2 via Dells 318 rom. I decided to do a factory whipe. When I booted the phone back up, I was stuck on the Dell Boot Screen forever. I cant figure anything out. I have the 309 recovery image and did all of this with Fastboot. It seems like when I put the phone in fastboot, it goes in fine. I also have the StreakMod recovery I believe it is on the phone as well. Im trying to do everything and cant get my phone past the Dell boot screen. I tried searching everywhere. The thing that gets me is that when I plug the phone into my computer, the comp doesnt bring up a drive to recognize the SD card? I have no way of accessing it through the phone. I have a card reader and can get to the files from that.

Can someone please give me a step by step on what to do here? I went from ATT 1.6 to O2 1.6-2.1 then 2.2. Its been a couple of hours now and I just cant seem to figure this out? Please someone help me? THank you
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
You can not have 2 recovery's on at the same time its aether 309 recovery or streak mod recovery

If i was you i would re flash the 309 recovery then reinstall the 308 package

the 308 package will only install if you have 309 recovery:)
[Streak 5 General] carhigh:
Good luck man. I went thru a nightmare like this last night. I ended up getting qdl tool to work and finaly got it to boot. I "THINK", if you can get qdl tool working you might be able to save alot of headache.

I was on the ota 319 and went back to att 1.6 so i could get it setup with 318. Im still confused on how i actualy got it to work.

I have an expired AT&T SIM, which I just put in my T-Mobile tab and it registered on the network with HSDPA (Tab set to WCDMA only, HSDPA listed in settings/about/status). AT&T was the only network listed in wireless settings. Of course I couldn't do anything online, but I would have bet against a 3G connection. This is with the stock modem.bin that get 3G on T-Mobile.

so it's still JL4 on your second modem link?

[Galaxy Tab General] spankee:
Okay I used the two files in the first post and got voice working and H/3G showing. I get redirected to tmobile page though on the web. How do I get around this? IMEI mod?
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Yes, but since you can't just change your IMEI to any value you want, you have to change it "brute force" to the default IMEI of 004xxxxx by deleting your /efs/nv_data.bin files. Some folks are deleting all the files in /efs.

Regardless of what you choose to do, please make sure you have good backups of the files in /efs before proceeding. Some are hidden and begin with the period character.
[Galaxy Tab General] spankee:
I did back up and delete those files. Got web working then it stopped. Phone stopped working also. I suspect that the bogus IMEI number is being detected and blocked? I'm gonna try again after the family functions.

I noticed that Bull's CSC is from JMA and PDA is from JP3, how did he manage to install JMA CSC ? For what i red somewhere here the CSC also has something to do with band frequency besides country specific settings.

Anybody have the CSC only from an JMA?
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
So it seems to me the only imaginable explanation for this working would be that all tabs have the same radio in them and that the bands are only limited by software, which is something I though I would never see. It makes sense that the mfg process would be easier but it just sounds so crazy. Do these companies like TI and Huawei even make radio as thart can be tuned with software? I was always under the impression that they were physically set to work on certain frequencies. But if a tmobile tab truly works with voice and data with an att sim, that must be the case. Awesome.
[Galaxy Tab General] android-rules:
If you look at the box of a tmobile tab it show "international GSM quadband 850/900/1800/1900, umts I,IV which means 850/1900= ATT and UMTS IV 1700/2100=tmobile. So ATT sim should work on tmobile tab we just need the right software to use it and bull manage or accidentally achieved the formula to make it work regardless of the carrier. :rolleyes:

I'm also curious what he means by flashing the CXC as i'm trying the exact steps he did to achieve it. I cannot seem to find the code CXC when i run *#272*imei#. I'm thinking that by unlocking the right code would also unlock specific frequencies as mentioned on the other forum.
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
True. But GSM is not 3g. As far as cell phones go you would never see one that has bands for both tmo and att 3g. The tmo tab would easily do voice/2g with an att sim. Voice/3g is a very different thing. Basically that also means someone in the uk could take a us tmo tab and get voice/3g using this method. You commonly hear people asking about how to get 3g working on one carrier with as phone from another, at least I do being a tech support rep, and it just isnt possible due to physical limitations. Hence why I say the att tab and tmo tab would have to be identical in their physical specs and the sw is what controls the bands

Umts I is the 2100. Att uses umts II and V.
[Galaxy Tab General] android-rules:
Thank's for clearing things up , the 850/1900 is a gsm only band which i thought before as UMTS that make sense so there is really no way to get 3g on a tmobile tab unless the internals are identical crippled only by the software.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab General] maxtcee:
hey bull i know you said you got this working with att sim on tmobile tab
