Is it stock or custom rom your running?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] d.chatten:
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > press menu > Advanced > Wi-Fi sleep policy
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] noccy80:
I am not talking about the WiFi sleep policy. Let me elaborate;

1. WiFi is turned off.

2. I connect the charger to the phone.

3. WiFi automatically enables.

It is a custom rom, but I believe this setting was changed with another application, possibly a task killer. I could be wrong tho; I remember it being in a menu where you could change various power management and performance settings. I just can't find it again.

I flashed darkys newest rom successfully, everything runs very smoothly, however, I now cannot connect to Bell's network. I have Bell selected under the wireless settings but my phone has no H symbol and no bars.

Any ideas? I've tried dialing *#2263# and have it set to automatic.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GOTFrogqc:
Have you checked if your APN is still set. Try flashing the JL2 modem, also you can try removing/reinserting SIM Card. If you need the bell APN send me a pm and ill send them to you by email.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fullarton:
Yes, pda.bell.ca is still stored under APN and checked. Taking out the sim card didn't do it.

Thanks for your input.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtg2:
Install the JL2 modem (latest modem specifically for our phones). You should be able to find it easily with a quick search. All you need is the modem file. Flash it using ODIN. DO NOT repartition or include a PIT file.

Hi

When in my Gmail account and want to open a file attachment (.APK file) it opens with Bluetooth File Transfer and showing the files inside the .APK file.

Is there a way to change which application to associate with APK files? I want either root explorer or EZ File Manger to handle .APK files.

I have tried reset all the applications settings to default with no luck.

Went into Settings -> Managa applications -> Bluetooth File Transfer but the button Clear Defaults is greyed out.

I'm I stuck with Bluetooth File Transfer for opening .APK files?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
That's strange. What do you use to access your gmail? Because i've just tried the Mail app & Mail widget from HTC, and both save the .apk fle to the SD card/downloads from my GMail account.

Hi folks,

I've configured my two email accounts successfuly but the tiles don't update according with the number of email received. Basically the tiles behave as if no emails are received :(

Other issue i'm encountering is the fact that text messages are not being delivered and on the phone i get no error. Although i don't receive any delivery reported.

Any one else experiencing any of these issues too? any solution?

Big thanks,

Ernesto

what kind of mail server you use (imap, active sync/exchange, hotmail)?

Your phone works well (do you loose settings after power off and on?)?

i dont face this issue with exchange active sync.

Same issue. I did configure Live, FB and Outlook accounts. My settings are also correctly saved. :confused:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] folumi:
1. I have set up my Hotmail account and dont face such issues. Number of newly arrived mails are shown correctly. But again, this might be cause i only have set up the hotmail account.

2. Concerning the text messaging problem, I havent faced the problem of undelivered text messages yet. But just for the record, the message delivered function is working for me. Might be an issue with your provider?

3. Although there is one update problem I am also facing:

When having 3 newly arrived emails, the Outlook tile shows the correct number of new Emails (in this case 3). But when I enter Outlook on my WP7 and leave right away withouth having looked at any of the new messages, the Outlook tile is back to zero, meaning showing no new messages, although i havent opend the newly arrived emails.

I am not sure if this is intended to work like this, or if this is due to that it is a ripped WP7 OS. Mayby somebody owning a real WP7 can shed light on this matter. I also is not a big deal for me, but nontheless, it would be nice to see the number of unread messages on the tile.

[Droid Incredible General] Stockmoose16:
I have Verizon Wireless, and when I try to use my personal vpn through their 3g network, I cannot access or ping anything on the internet. The same VPN works fine over wifi.

I've read posts about Verizon restricting IP addresses, but I've now gotten up to tier 3 tech support and they've taken me out of the general restricted IP pool. But I still have the same problem, my vpn says it connects, but nothing will load on the internet.

Verizon has no idea how to fix it, and they say now that i've rom'd my phone, I'd have to go back to stock if I want their help. That's a huge multi-hour headache, which I don't want to get into.

Has anyone been able to get pptp VPN to work over VZW's PPTP network?
[Droid Incredible General] yakkowarner:
I use DTLS with no issues but I'm no VPN expert.

I've only experiences issues depending on the kernal used.
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
I have no problem connecting via PPTP to my Windows 7 Home Premium box using 1 VPN. It works fine for me on 3G. For what it's worth, my ROM is Virtuous.

If you aren't using 1 VPN, I would look into it. It's very nice and works great. The dev will even refund your money even after the new 15 minute return time limit. But you won't be doing that. :)
[Droid Incredible General] Stockmoose16:
I have the same setup - 1 VPN and Virtuous, but I just discovered it's not Verizon, it's actually ALL ANDROID PHONES! Major bug! They can all connect via PPTP through wifi, but if you switch to the mobile network, no data will come through. Talk about Google dropping the ball:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4706
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
Not ALL. As i mentioned I can surf to other web sites while connected to the VPN on 3G. I have an Incredible, obviously.
[Droid Incredible General] Stockmoose16:
I'd love to know what you use that thousands of others don't. As I mentioned, it use the same rom and vpn program, and I'm having the same experience as most. Do you connect via pptp?
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
Hmmm... It almost feels like you think I'm lying to you. I have no reason to lie. Here's a screen shot. Note the lock identifying a VPN connection and lack of wireless icon. You can see my cell coverage kinda sucks in the house.

I know this could be faked. I could have turned on the VPN after the test, but I didn't.

I bet your problem can easily be fixed within the settings of 1 VPN.

Do you have the Gateway IP setup in the DNS search domain of your 1 VPN settings? I'm willing to bet that's the issue. Put it in there and see what happens.

That's really the only thing I setup in my PPTP settings that possibly would make a difference.

EDIT: One other thing worth noting but really has nothing to do with anything. The firewall is disabled on the machine I am connecting to as the VPN PPTP Server. I'm just using the stock Windows 7 incoming connections feature for VPN access.
[Droid Incredible General] n_i_x:
What exactly does this have to do with ROM development?

MODS: please move this thread.
[Droid Incredible General] Stockmoose16:
I don't think you're lying, i'm just saying everyone else is having problems and google has been unresponsive.

I don't know what a gateway ip address is, all I entered was the server ip and that allows me to connect over wifi but not 3g. Also, the firewall is probably an issue because the mobile carriers obviously use one. Don't know why most of us can't connect through an online vpn, but I assume the challenges are different than that of an in-home server.

Where would I find the gateway ip address, from vzw or from the VPN site?

If it's vzw, can you give me the address?
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
It's just the IP address of your router. Normally it's something like 192.168.1.1.

I changed mine to 192.168.3.1. I did this a long time ago because of other issues I was having connecting to VPNs. This shouldn't be causing your issue but you should put the IP address in the DNS Search Domain.

Hopefully this allows you to do what you want to do. Guess I'm glad it works for me. I hadn't heard about any problems before.
[Droid Incredible General] Stockmoose16:
I don't see how putting my home router's ip address into my phone would make any difference. The VPN servers I use are in different locations across the country and have nothing to do with anything I've set up in my home.

Just to add to this problem, I went to the Verizon store this evening and tested at least half a dozen Androids - NOT ONE would connect to my PPTP VPN. However, I logged onto an HP netbook linked to a Verizon 3g card and the VPN immediately connected and worked perfectly. This is definitely an Android bug, and as far as I'm concerned, until it is fixed, Verizon should offer me a loaner device that can handle my VPN (Read: Iphone). I'm very frustrated to have spent hours on the phone with Verizon with them telling me it was 1) my VPN 2) that I needed a static IP that cost $500 3) that whomever I had previously talked to was mistaken, and that it should work.

And yet, despite going up to however many layers of tech support, I'M the one who discovered it's an Android problem, not them. It's hard for me to believe that they didn't know about this issue, since it's been posted a million times in the Google group I linked above. I realize the fix ultimately falls on Google, but VZW is the one selling the phone, and I need something that works.
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
Hmm... I don't know what to tell you. If you want, create a temp account for me and PM me the info. I'll try to tunnel through with my phone if you want. If not, that's fine too.

It sounds like you are connected to the VPN ok. To me it would appear as though it's not translating the DNS information (ie - domain name to IP address). Try going to an IP like 128.242.245.84 instead of using a domain name to see if anything works. That IP should take you to Twitter.

PM me if you would like me to try to connect.
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
I sent you a PM. Let me know if you want to try connecting to my VPN. I'll send you some temporary credentials.
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
I have used vpnc for 6 months.

The past 2 months I have experienced the same problem as OP.

I can vpn from my home router via wifi, but cannot vpn via 3g.

So, my android vpn client has these symptoms AND my pc cannot vpn when tethered to my phone (pc vpn client) via 3g.

It's a VZ 3g carrier block since I can vpn with my android client via wifi.
[Droid Incredible General] userjf:
Correct, once you are connected to the VPN, it is definitely not blocked in any way by the verizon network. Either a setting error or a problem with the vpn client on your phone.
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
It is blocked by vz.

Vpn works fine over wifi, but blocked by 3g.
[Droid Incredible General] userjf:
If it CONNECTS, it is not blocked. Blocked = NO CONNECT.
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
It works for me. Granted I'm not a heavy VPN user but I have no problem connecting to my home network over 3G with PPTP using 1 VPN on Verizon.

I seriously doubt it makes a difference but I also use Verizon FIOS for my home service.

For what it's worth, I am using Baseband 2.15.00.07.28, which is the official Froyo radio.

Can't explain it but I'm happy anyway. Hope you get it figured out.
[Droid Incredible General] clambert11:
What happens when you are connected to your VPN and go to 128.242.245.84?

Anything?
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
Dude, a vpn requires multiple port numbers.. So only one needs blocked which wil not prevent connectivity.
[Droid Incredible General] luvit:
Vpn over wifi = twitter

Vpn over 3G = 404 error
[Droid Incredible General] userjf:
PPTP requires Port 1723 and Port GRE, no more, no less. If EITHER of those is blocked, it will NOT be able to connect at all. It will either get stuck looking for server, or stuck verifying password.

The connection is done through the SAME PORTS as the data flow.

Once connected, ALL DATA FLOW to and from the vpn server are through those ports. No others.

It uses data through the VPN DURING the connection.

So, CONNECTED = DEFINITELY NOT BLOCKED.

I'm not saying this is user error necessarily, I'm saying it is not a verizon block. It has to be something in the client, either a setting or a program issue. Perhaps the pptp client doesn't internally work over 3g properly, maybe a routing issue on the phone itself.
[Droid Incredible General] XBC-Tod:
I believe I may be able to help.

The issue isn't Verizon really (I used to think it was as well). I did a ton of testing and have found what works every time for us. The issue is the PPTP client in the phone's ability to negotiate what encryption level to use and the authentication method. I verified this by using a Cisco 2621 router which has PPTP server in its IOS.

I had to make the following adjustments to the PPTP server on the 2621 router get a stable connection that is rock solid.

ppp encrypt mppe 128 (It would only connect with 128 bit encryption)
ppp authentication ms-chap-v2 (this works every time. v1 did not)

If connecting to RAS on Win2K3 or Win2K8, make sure that MS-CHAP-V2 is selected in the RAS allowed authentication methods and your network policy (normally is by default). If its not, you'll probably be out of luck. The only ones I have checked are EAP and MS-Chap-V2. I am able to connect to both Win2K3 and Win2K8 perfectly. I was unable to find an encryption level (i.e. 40bit or 128bit, etc) in RAS. I would assume its burried in there somewhere. By default 128 is used.

As for low end routers, I wish you luck. I tested with a Cisco RV082 (which is linksys) that has a built in PPTP server. While I can connect, performance is absolutely horrible. I can't speak for other routers, just my experience.

Another thing to note, that routers like the Cisco 2600 series or really any of the Cisco routers do not push a default gateway to the client. Windows RAS does. One could argue all day as to which is proper, but I do prefer having all my traffic go through the VPN unless I specify to not use the default gateway.

I guess it goes without saying, make sure your firewall is allowing the GRE protocol (this is not a TCP or UDP port. It is a protocol), and TCP Port 1723. Some routers like the RVO82 have a generic service called "Allow PPTP", this will allow both GRE and TCP 1723 at the same time.

In short, just remember the key is 128 bit encryption and MS-CHAP-V2 authentication. It will work everytime. We've been using it with our phone for months now every day with Verizon.
[Droid Incredible General] userjf:
Thank you for finding the issue in the pptp client on the phone and verifying that this has nothing to do with the verizon network blocking anything.

MS-Chap-V2 and 128 bit encryption should ALWAYS be used for ANY pptp connection. The v1 and lower bit encryptions are very insecure. The V2 is nowdays considered insecure as well, and pptp is completely banned by many organizations because of insecurity, but v2 is much better than v1. Any decent pptp server should be able to do v2.
[Droid Incredible General] XBC-Tod:
You're welcome :-)

@luvit

The droid VPN client EXPECTS it to be given a default gateway by the VPN client. Many routers do not supply a default gateway. This will lead to your inability to do anything on the internet while connected to the VPN. This applies only to the droid VPN client. The iPhone VPN client is smart enough to use the gateway provided by ATT when it is not given one by a router whereas the droid is not. Hell, some routers wont even supply DNS, (I know Cisco doesnt unless you tell it to).

As to why it works when on WiFi, a couple things come to mind. The first being that you're not actually connected to your VPN even though the app is reporting you are. Its also possible that the VPN client is using the WiFI default gateway whereas it is not using it when you connect through verizon.

Your 404 error is somewhat confusing as 404 indicates you have connected to a server, but not the one you were trying to connect to. 404 is a response issued to you by a webserver. It is an indication that you do have network connectivity but you're connecting to the wrong place. (DNS or Network Filtering issue).

For what its worth, Cyanogen 6.1 has an awesome openVPN client that really works well too. I've been using it and testing it for the last couple weeks. It seems to be a battery hog, but it works real good.

1. Start to Name them from 00001 to 00117 not _0001 to _0117.

2. Use part0 and part1 folder (i would put the android becoming green in part1 folder)

3. When making it a zip dont use compression (in 7zip u just use the store option)

Edit: here you go:) Its not an update zip u will have to push it manually to /system/media/

hope it looks like u expected it to:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] corgar:
Used png optimizer. Zip is uncompressed... used 7zip to zip. Dunno what's wrong
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] shrooms90:
I think that was the point.... U shouldnt optimize the pictures at all. I dont understand it 100% but as far as i know it changes something with the zip compression (read it somewhere)

And btw use notepad++ to create the desc.txt file. windows notepad adds some wiered things that makes it unreadable for android. (read that somwhere on xda)
