[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anandneemish:
I'm in a 3 Vibrant household. The other two phones stay connected to 3G all day. Both have stock ROMs. 1 is on stock Eclair (JI6) and the other has the stock Kies upgrade to Froyo. (Actually, during the first attempt to upgrade, Kies softbricked that phone, so I ODIN'ed it back to the JFD image I downloaded from XDA, and then successfully upgraded to stock KA6).

These other phones are my family's. My phone however, seems to be bumped down to EDGE as soon as I use it. In other words, if the phone is just sitting there charging, it indicates it is on the HSPDA network. If I pick it up and start using it, it bumps down to EDGE within a minute. I tried to hold it with my fingertips to avoid the "grip of death" but this does not help. (BTW, I can grip the other phones all day and they stay on 3G. So my fat hands do not seem to be the problem).

My phone has seen just a few ROMS: Bionix, Flagship and now running Trigger 2.5.

I have tried the following modems: JK6, JL5, KA6, KA7, and of course Trigger 2.5 comes with KB1.

I have also done the hardware contact fix (i.e. lift up the copper tabs).

After flashing in different modems and doing the hardware fix, I continue to experience the exact same phenomena.

I am at my wit's end. I DO NOT know what else to try to get the dang thing to stay on 3G or HSPDA. I know I should try going back to stock to see if that helps ... but I am pretty reluctant to go there.

Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Well, not sure if it is where you are at, In places in Hawaii and Very Northern California I only get edge.....But so the sake of argument we will assume the signal is not the issue

Here is a way to do some testing :

I use this when i want to get 850wcdma (ATT 3g) it does work for that

Dial: *#*#197328640#*#*

Click [1] debug screen

Click [8] phone control

Click [7] network control

Click [2] band selection

This is where you make a change, default setting is [1] automatic,

Which means it chooses automatically between gsm/cdma (Edge vs 3g).

So we are going to change this and set it to wcdma band which is 3g.

Click [2] wcdma band

Click [1] wcdma all []

Now it should display “select wcdma all bands [*]"

Now on the bottom of your phone, click the menu key, it’s the one next to the home key, now click back, menu again one more time, back one more time, this is just to confirm it set to number 2 wcdma band.

Now click menu key one last time, click end.. and you are done. Now to double verify that the phone is locked into 3g, dial in: *#*#4636#*#*

Then click phone information Then scroll down to “set preferred network type” It should now have listed “wcdma only.” PS, if you tried to do a shortcut, and just set wcdma this way first without doing the lock above, it would just go back to gsm/cdma auto once you exit the screen.

Your phone should now be locked into 3g.

That may help good luck..........
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anandneemish:
oka1,

Thank you very much for your detailed reply. This sounded very promising. I followed every step of your instructions. The result was that I ended up with no network. The four bars area was replaced with an empty space. Attempts to access the web resulted in message that no network was available.

No biggie. Just went back through the process and set the phone back to the default. And I am now back the EDGE.

Any I too am in Northern California.

Thanks again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Yeah Northern Cal north of Ukiah nothing but Edge, but then ATT and verizon are the same
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anandneemish:
Actually, SF Bay Area ... South Bay to be exact.

My prob is that I can get HSPDA ... as long as I leave the phone on my desk connected to the power cord. If I pick it up or move around the house, I lose connection to the 3G network and get downgraded to EDGE. This does NOT happen to the other two Vibrants that we have. They always get 3G.

This may be related to the Grip of Death. But only for my phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Well I am in Alameda and I have a similar problem. for what ever reason, If I am in my house the wireless WIFI makes my phone go to edge, go in my backyard, and I have 3g. Now since i am on the second floor, to only thing I can think is my wifi signal messes up my 3g cause in the front on my porch I get edge (13 ft above the street.........so I use wifi at home, but it still really bugs me that in the house I have edge and in the backyard I have 3g....... go figure

Could you make a test for me? Just open Skype, log in, log out, and close it. Does the sdcard unmounts and mount itself and then reboots the xperia?

Thank you ;)

Skype still reboots.

[XPERIA X10 General] frost866:
What data2sd does exactly?
[XPERIA X10 General] clubfreeks:
Your data is mounted and runs on your SD card.

it stores it to /mnt/sdcard/xrecovery/data.img

Here is Z's original post,

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11047664&postcount=3667

Basically i have modded it to work with TripNMiUi

Technically it runs faster. :)

After install, it will take about take a bit of time setup. First time i installed it i had to crash server agian to get signal.

But once everything has settled it runs amazingly fast :)
[XPERIA X10 General] jingjonas:
when will the fix for BT and skype be out O:
[XPERIA X10 General] jimbo77:
I know it is not totally related to you, but do you know if there is anything you can do regarding the "SD Card Safe to remove" issue? Zdizihu fixed it in Beta 3, so probably you can por it. It will be awesome!

thanks for your Work!
[XPERIA X10 General] Dalkbur:
Thanks for your work dude. Skype works now as I said to you on the PM.

I was thinking about Data2SD. It creates a clean data.img and mounts it to /data, so you have a clean rom, ready to install apps, configure it, etc etc. But maybe you could make a backup with xrecovery, then move that data.img created with the backup to /xrecovery, couldn't you? So maybe it could work faster, maybe is just to edit the files (I haven't downloaded it yet, but I think it's maybe chargemon or ramdisk.tar) to do not create the file, just load it, so you could have your previous data.img working.

I'll look at it tonight, but maybe you thought already about it :)
[XPERIA X10 General] clubfreeks:
Hey, yes I do have a fix :)

I will set up an update tonight.

Its been tested and confirmed working.
[XPERIA X10 General] troyjamz:
Stuck at bootimage

just installed your Data2SD.zip but im now having issues with booting into the rom. The bootlogo apairs but then gets stuck after a while. I have then removed the battery and rebooted numerous times to see if that could be a solution. But nothing happens. So if you could further assist me that would be great!

The rom currently on my phone :)

http://www.mediafire.com/?dbsdtwyfh2bk9tu

here is the rom im currently runing on my phone.

Its TripsMiUI with a few changes.

I guess you could say its a mix of a few roms.

So credit to all the dev's... Trip,Z,J... and the nice guys at google for a awesome search engine ... :)

Flash the rom, Wait for first boot, phone will reboot, wait for proper second boot

and done.

All the normal stuff is working... Added bluetooth and app2sd

I found a few bugs i was checking out but i figured you guys might wanna play .... and find more...

Once agian i hope Trip doesnt mind. (if any of the dev's want me to remove anything let me know)

if this software/code is copyright please pm and i will remove it.
[XPERIA X10 General] Dalkbur:
@clubfreeks could you isolate the changes for working BT and share it? hehe
[XPERIA X10 General] clubfreeks:
Err, yes i will.

Going to make once nice big fix then upload it.

Just busy fixing up a few other things i wanted... :)
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
Think you can get the DSPManager from CM 7 working on this ROM, I know it requires some modification of the libraries. Also, the new MIUI Theme Downloader as well. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] donny101:
Did you make any changes to how the WiFi connects in your miui mod? Because with trips original Rom I was not able to get internet access through WiFi but on yours it works fine... just wondering so then maybe you can inform trip for his 2. 5 release?

Also I tried your data 2SD and it wouldn't boot it was stuck on the bootscreen for over thirty minutes and I just assumed that that was excessively long for a boot... or should I have waited longer?
[XPERIA X10 General] cruzin_cruzing:
Donny101, if you installed Data2SD on a Class 2 microSD, then that's your problem. Class 2 is very slow.
[XPERIA X10 General] cybermm:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNadler:
On the Market there is a program called SamServiceMode. Load it then go to option 5(audio), then 1(handset), then 1(volume), then 1(SRCSpeech RX Volume.

Option # 5 is defaulted to 92. Raise it to 100(max)

This should help. At least it did for me.

Running di11gaf v6.0

SuckerPunch-SmR #48

BTW this program also makes it very easy to switch to GSM instead of 3G if like me you are in a fringe 3G area it sucks my battery very quickly. Switch to GSM only and I can go for 35+ hrs and still have 40% left......:D

Good Luck!

Somehow the bands on your device is messed up so you never get a signal. Not sure how to fix it but any solutions would be great.
