[Droid 2 Global General] TripleMPower:
Interesting. Let me try it out.

I wonder if it will stil work provided that I am using GSM network.
[Droid 2 Global General] TripleMPower:
I just tried it.

YOu can access the hidden menu by setting the network to Global or CDMA

Dial "##7764726"

Then enter 000000 as the SPC Code

The hidden menu is a little different than what we see on the net. It seems that the Droid 2 Global additional settings.

I went to choice 06 (Test Mode) and kept pressing next until it came to "Field Test Screen" and changed the service option from the default EVRC to EVRC-B which is suggested on the net for better call quality.

However, I wonder if this does any improvement for GSM users. To be able to access the hidden menu using the SPC Code 000000 I had to change the network to Global or CDMA. I am unable to use the same SPC code when the network is set to GSM.

I only wonder if GSM users need to set to something other than EVRC-B for better sound quality and also stronger network signal.

Anyway, after setting to EVRC-B I went back and changed the network to GSM/UMTS and the network signal still remains week. NOt sure about sound quality.
[Droid 2 Global General] yzak47:
some say that the gsm signal is only wrongly showed, do you think so? in fact i can still make phone call with one bar of signal
[Droid 2 Global General] TripleMPower:
Not sure what to say.

I also can make calls with one signal strength but the 3G speed varies alot. At times it is super fast and at times it lags.

It has to do something with the signal strength.

Normally Hong Kong has very good singal strength becuse Hong Kong is a small place.

We should easily be able to make phone calls with just 1 signal bar strength.

Does anyone know the signal strength for the recently released Milestone 2 in Hong Kong?
[Droid 2 Global General] TripleMPower:
Have you tried the Hidden Menu trick?

You are using GSM also right?
[Droid 2 Global General] SuperPuma:
Easy to get it

Just follow this :

Method 1 of the following link(only steps 0 to step 4[until click "RDELEM"] ):

you have to choose the "Main -> MA -> CDMA1X -> QSC 60x5 Chipset Base (6055/6075/6085)"

http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showthread.php/433-Motorola-CDMA-SPCs-For-Dummies?

and instead of element id 0055, use element ID: 2786. This will give to you the Hex value:

SPC HexaDecimal: 3x003x003x003x003x003x

the "x" are the 6 values of the SPC.

more information in this page:

http://www.taringa.net/posts/celulares/3746618/Desbloquear-Motorola-Q9C-Y-Algunas-Aplicaciones.html

do not write any value with radioComm, just get the spc value.
[Droid 2 Global General] metriod:
do you know how I can connect droid x to radio com. I boot in to bootloader, and radiocomm is green. I put element 2786 but when I try to read, it say critical error on the phone and didn't read the spc code.

Hi, after a clean install my mic turns out very weak.. I can hear the other side.. but the others don't hear me or very very weak.. another clean install doesn 't solve the problem :confused:

Are there some mic settings in the Touch Pro 2 for adjusting mic levels or is there a tweak, app.. HELP!!:mad:

greetss Mike
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zionptm:
Yes. You must turn AVL (Auto Volume Level) off. You should find this under Settings.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mikemover:
Thnx for your replie!

Already done this .. but no positive result :(

Now i'm running XDANROID and the problem is solved!? :)

Switch back to WM 6.5 (clean) and MC doesn't work perfectly...So now i'm running my TP2 on XDANDROID :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zionptm:
XDANDROID has the bad habit of screwing up some settings in WM, so maybe you should try to hard reset your phone and upgrade it to the latest ROM. This should fix your problem.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
To flash a ROM from this forum, the instructions say download the ROM and push to SD card.

Would I be right in saying that I do not need to use my PC to do this, ie

- download from an internet browser on my phone

- use a file management app to move the files to the sd card on the phone?

I get the impression it needs to be done using your PC but don't understand why.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
I think that they're just stressing out that the file (ROM, for this instance) has to be in the root folder of the SD card. You can do it any way you like. You can get the file via bluetooth from another phone, etc. What matters is that it's in the SD card root directory, because the custom recovery only looks for it there.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] teuz:
Yep, you are right. A pc is completely unnecessary for the pure flashing process.

In the guides they tell you to push the zipped package to the sd just cos you should have formatted the sd before. If you know what you are doing you can also download the zip from the phone, moving to the root, rebooting in recovery and flash.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gugler:
I guess if you didn't partition or format your sd card or have second sd card that store the rom's zip file, no need for computer to transfer the file.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
Great, that's what I thought.

Now to sort that 'void' ROM I'm been meaning to do
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
What do these bits actually mean, or more importantly, how do I do it?:

Partition SDcard (swap: 0, ext: 512), convert to ext3, then ext4

Wipe everything (data, cache, dalvik-cache, ext, android_secure)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
(Accidentally clicked thanks)

You have to get a custom recovery installed :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
If I have (and I do have) do I not need to worry about them instructions and just go for the flashing bit?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
Oh I see, that's one of the options in custom recovery, I'm starting to get this now(a bit)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
You only need to create an ext partition when your ROM comes with Darktremor Apps2sd, which, I believe, is on most of the ROMs.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Bennji:
Thanks for your help :D

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beefalo:
I have exactly the same problem. Every setting (main, in apps) is set to "vibrate always" but the phone never vibrates in notifications when the sound is on.

I have been hoping it is a bug in 2.3, but there don't seem to be many threads here about it. On the other hand, how could it possibly be a hardware problem?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJ in Compton:
So for some reason my nexus one does not properly sense that my headphones are unplugged unless I pull them out with the plug rubbing against the right side of the jack, and to make it worse when the phone boots up it usually thinks I have headphones plugged in. This wouldn't be an issue if it didn't cause the earpiece to stop working for calls and the speaker to stop working for music unless I insert and remove headphones from the jack, and if I don't carry them with me and my phone reboots I am out of luck.

Is there any way to sidestep this without sending it in? Someone suggested to clean it with alcohol on a q-tip but I'm afraid of a water sensor hiding there like my old iPhone; anyone know if that's the case with the nexus one?

The best solution would be some kind of widget or application that lets me change whether the phone has headphones plugged in or not, but I've never found one..

Please help!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alithenake:
It happens to me for almost 6 months now. I still couldn't find a solution :( ... if you don't have your headphones with you and phone reboots, you can shut it down again and remove the battery for 2-3 minutes. Mine will reboot correctly after that.

I searched for a software that switch between headphones and headset, but still couldn't find one. I would pay for such piece of software. No luck until now
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vpr2006:
I have this problem also. I'm running CM6.1.1, and never saw this until CM 6.1 when they introduced the FM radio app that requires the headphones to be plugged in. With stock or CM6 I didn't have this issue. Don't know if it's related to CM or not, but it's kind of annoying having to keep headphones around to fix this.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raviff:
Do you use any kind of task killer? I used to have problens with headphones when I used them. After I found out they do more harm than good, I stopped using and never had headphone problens again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vpr2006:
I don't use any task killers, I haven't used one since I was completely stock. Now with the latest Android, they don't really work that well anyway.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willverduzco:
Thread moved to Q&A, as this is a [Q]uestion.

Don't kill me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe that the Nexus One's moisture sensor is in the headphone jack. Also, a q-tip with a tiny drop of isopropyl alcohol would be your best bet to clean out whatever is making the device think that the headphones are plugged.

I actually had the same problem for a little while and q-tip + isopropyl alcohol, combined with spraying some compressed air (being extra cautious to have the can right-side-up) solved the problem for me.

Even if the moisture sensor is in the headphone jack, I highly doubt that a drop of isopropyl would set it off, given how it has such a high vapor pressure and thus evaporates so quickly.

Good luck fixing this!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raviff:
I replaced the broken lcd of my ex-gf nexus and didn't see any water sensors inside of it.

But ya, isopropyl alcohol shouldn't trigger it anyway.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJ in Compton:
Thanks for moving this. I didn't notice until I saw the PM, so I might as well post an update:

Rubbing alcohol on a qtip with most of the cotton removed did the trick! Whatever it was that was causing my phone to trip is gone.

Also, I confirmed on the phone with HTC that there is not a moisture sensor in the headphone jack, so anyone still having that problem, try the alcohol and see!
[General Topics] keysersoze7900:
is there any way i can get my contract with orange cancelled if they are not delivering the service i pay for? i have an 18 month contract, which is only a few months old but have increasingly noticed poor signal when making calls and unbelievably slow 3g connection - to the point it doesnt work at all some days. im paying good money for this and i am not getting what i pay for!

i live close to a large town centre in a busy area and the signal there is appalling, as it is all to frequently where ever i go in the uk. i have several handsets (mostly android - but not all!), my friend has a nokia with the same network issues, so it is 100% network and not hardware related.

i also have the t-mobile/orange roaming feature enabled with barely any, if any, improvement!

why should i be stuck to this for another year if its not what im paying for?

anybody have any advice?
[General Topics] kurolife:
I dunno where you live, but for orange France you could concel your contract well till this week i guess, coz they were increasing the price because of increased VAT (TVA) ...

I suggest you to call the costumer service, and tell them about your problem while insisting that you paying for things you aren't getting, or else you'll be forced to switch to another type of contract that offers only the services you are getting, (small montly fee contract = small penalty for the months left in your contract)
[General Topics] Step666:
You're past any period where you can return the contract due to signal-related problems.

Most networks offer 14 days or so at the start of a contract in which you can return it ddor whatever reason. After that, generally you can only cancel by paying off all the remaining line rental.

Try speaking to Customer Services but I'd be very surprised if they'll be willing to just let you go.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacksenechal:
How can I keep bluetooth tethering from crashing and rebooting my phone? I'm using the Wireless Tether app. Wifi and USB tethering work fine on the phone, but when I try to connect via bluetooth PAN it chokes and dies.

I've been using Nonsensikal Froyo v5.4 for a very long time now, and it does almost everything perfectly... including bluetooth tethering! However, more recent ROMs I've tried (such as Nonsensikal 16.1 and GSB 1.2) have the crashing problem.

According to an issue (#172) on the Wireless Tether tracker, it's a problem in Cyanogenmod's pand program. I can corroborate this because if I run "pand -s" in the terminal and try to tether, I get the same crash. If it was fixed at one point though, it's come back.

Ideas, anyone?
[Folio 100 General] adonis28850:
Hi, i cant tether between folio and htc tattoo. There is a known "bug" in android, in which you cant see Wifi APs working in AdHoc mode (this is like wifi tether works).

In some new devices, like htc desire, it is fixed because tethering apps works with infrastructure mode, so APs can see in the folio, but... in devices like mine, htc tattoo this doesn't work, so the only one solution its to patch the wpa_supplicant. All this is explained better here: hxxp://szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/

The problem is that that patch is for older versions of wpa_supplicant, i have tried with other patches, but doesn't work, some idea???

thanks!
[Folio 100 General] adonis28850:
Dexter, could you apply this patch for the next ROM, or make an wpa_supplicant update for current?? thanks
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
the foliowidget option to use "adhoc" is already enabling the patched adhoc wpa_supplicant, so its in place and has been for a long time, as it was done early on with the image back in november..

but got automated with foliowidget option, where you just restart wifi after selecting adhoc.
[Folio 100 General] stefboombastic:
cannot use ad-hoc with folio 100 and Dexter 1.3d

Hi!

I've installed Your Mod1.3d as suggested in some article in the internet in my Folio 100.

I've turned on "ad-hoc" in foliowidget, Folio sees the ad-hoc network I create, but then it hangs trying again and again to get an address.

I think it fails with WEP password. If I create an open connection (with WMWifiRouter in HTC Touch HD) it connects fine, but internet navigation does not work!)

My laptop works fine with the same ad-hoc network.

Should I updated to version 1.4? Or what is wrong with it?

Thank you very much in advance!

I searched and found nothing on this.

So my HDMI out works on YouTube just fine but I can't get it to work within a web browser to watch movies from projectfree.tv. I think it is because the phone doesn't technically know that I'm watching a video within the browser. I've tried the stock browser as well as dolphin hd.

Is there a setting or way to put the video in a fullscreen mode/program that will support HDMI out? I am talking about streaming video not downloaded.

I am rooted on mikfroyo's latest release if that matters. Flame if you must but help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
You just have to copy the sd android build to your sd card. Then in magldr, choose which folder has the android build you want to boot and then boot ad sd. When you install wp7, it will copy over your NAND android, and if you want to use one sd card for both wp7 and android, you will have to partition your sd card correctly so wp7 doesn't take up the whole card. There are threads about it in the sd android dev section and the hd2 wp7 sections.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacksenechal:
According to other users in the GSB v1.2 thread, they're getting speeds better than any Froyo they've used. I've done all of the suggested steps, including following the install instructions to a T, and "JIT on, home in memory, Comp cache RAM 18% default, heap size 24m,CPU 245/768." However, I'm still finding that it's noticeably slower than Nonsensikal 16.1. I can see lag in scrolling menus, scrolling in the browser, and typing on the keyboard. Am I doing something wrong, or should I just wait for CM7 to get more mature and try again?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amfetamine:
Could be a number of things; number of apps running, types of apps you run, leaky memory app, how many widgets, excess cache, GPS and BT on, how you use your phone, leftover data from sdcard, which governor you're using.

Hiccups are to be expected. Are you lagging all the time? After exiting a particular app?

Apples to apples is kinda difficult to assess, especially on something that is measured subjectively.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacksenechal:
This is based on my immediate impression after a fresh install of the rom, and has more to do with the speed and responsiveness of the UI than with apps. I can see some lag, particularly window animations and keyboard responsiveness, as soon as I install. I did a full wipe of data/cache/sdcard before installing GSB.

After I tweaked some things like bumping up the CPU max speed, setting smartass governor, and just letting it "warm up" for a while, it does run faster. Still not quite as fast though.

I suspect things will get better with later releases of CM7... I'll wait and try again in a bit.
