[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo.:
Hello,

I'm really confused about A.6 (newest Firmware) and the current firmware I'm running on.(A.0.435).

What are their Differences? Any performance Improvements? Please suggest.

I'm so skeptic since I see most of the releases are for .435 even though it has been long time since the new update is out.

I'm on stock .435 thinking to either move to High Performance Rom or update to .A.6

Please clarify.

Thank you in advance.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Candy[MAN]:
I find very little difference between the two except for battery life.

I am getting better battery life with the 2.1.1.A.0.6 versus the 2.1.A.0.435.

When I was running 2.0.2.A.0.24 and went to .435, I noticed a hit on battery life, but since I went up to A.0.6, seems to be back to the way it was before version .435.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheArchenemy:
2.1.1.A.0.6 is more or less .435 with some improvements

And I already tried some .435 ROMS and they work with A06. I didn't try ALL Roms though or themes, but they SHOULD work, the fw are pretty much the same, but the new one is better in my eyes.

[HTC Inspire 4G] wraithevolution:
Hey guys, I posted this on androidforums but got no response. So I figured I would ask here, see if anyone can help.

I've been having a problem more and more with mounting my phone to my pc as a disk drive. I want to pull pics off and add things obviously. Increasingly, my phone just won't mount as a disk drive. I have to connect and disconnect it several times to get it to work. And now today, it won't mount no matter what I do.

~ Rebooted the phone

~ Make sure debugging is off (won't work either way)

~ Tried making it automatic and/or make it ask which connection

~ Used "Safely Remove Hardware" and it doesn't help

~ The pc sees the drive added but won't go any farther

~ My phone sees the card just fine and I can access it just fine (32gb)

~ If I take the card out and mount to the pc, it sees it just fine

~ The phone still charges while connected to the pc

~ Sideloading also still works just fine

~ Stock Inspire, no root or anything

So what the hell? Makes no sense... I've since downloaded "Wife File Explorer Pro" and it works like a champ. I can see all the contents and folders of the card and I can upload/download just fine. I'm fine using the Wifi Explorer but I don't like the fact that I can't use my cable. I'm not exchanging the phone so that's out. Any thoughts or ideas? Appreciate your time!
[HTC Inspire 4G] misterbbq:
have you tried a different usb cable?
[HTC Inspire 4G] wraithevolution:
Ahh, yes I did, forgot to include that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] misterbbq:
ah, ok. it 'kinda' sounds like it's in charge only mode instead of disk mode. do you have it set to ask each time or default to one of the settings?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
select diskdrive on phone and I have debugging enabled, make sure to install htc sync, my computer will see the drive but cant access it till i actually select mount as disk drive and click done, then it is accessible, you can try a different usb port, and then try restoring phone if all else fails, your pics should still be on phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GAPY427:
Sometimes I forget to select the "Done" button at the bottom of the screen to lock in my choice for the USB.
[HTC Inspire 4G] wraithevolution:
Yeah, I've tried all of this. I've set it to disk drive and automatic and it only charges. I've set it to ask me each time, and it does not. Typically when you plug it in, the usb icon shows up at the top but it no longer does this yet will still charge. Ask, don't ask, debugging on or off, it just doesn't work. When I plug it in, the pc shows the new connection as the H drive but says nothing is inserted. When I remove it, that "drive" disappears. I always make sure and hit done when I choose, nothing seems to work.

Oh well, it's no big deal really. That Wifi Explorer works really well so I can access everything from my browser through wifi. It works suprising well!
[HTC Inspire 4G] darkbluexplorer:
I had this problem earlier today I physically removed my memory.card and rebooted.the phone and that fixed it. But it scared me. I have a wintec 16 gb men card class 10. What are you using?
[HTC Inspire 4G] wraithevolution:
I'm using a SanDisk 32gb card, just a slow class 2. Did you mean you re-booted the phone without the card in it and then put it back in after boot up? Or removed it, shut down, re-inserted card and then powered back on?
[Venue Pro General] NegiG:
Hi guys,

I just missed one of the bid on ebay:( It was said a no hang/freeze phone which was solved by upgraded to class 2 32gb. Bad day.....

Well anyway, I am looking for a DVP, free of those problems (hang/lock up, freeze when using wifi/market place) and is in good condition, no scratch/dents on the phone or dust below the screen.

Anyone have an extra DVP for sale here?:D

I'm having trouble getting wifi tether to work with 4G. It was working fine yesterday, and nothing has changed between when I last used it and now. The weird part is, when connected to 4G and tethered I can go to any Google site, but nothing else will load. When I'm connected to 3G everything works. I thought maybe it was that wifi tether is set to use Google's DNS and perhaps Google was having issues, but why would they work for 3G and not 4G. Do you think Sprint/Clearwire is blocking Google's DNS in an effort to curb unpayed tethering on 4G? Any other ideas?

Edit: I've tried a few different free DNS services and the same thing happens with all of them. No connection issues on 3G, but ONLY Google pages will load via 4G, regardless of which DNS service I'm using. This is a very strange problem....The only two things I can think of is Spring/Clearwire blocking DNS services or there's some sort of bug on the 4G network at the moment.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpav2004:
I'm seeing the same issue, and I did the same troubleshooting steps. It's almost as if they are inspecting http headers and checking the MAC against some database. Hopefully something is just broke on Sprint's side, though.

Same Problem in NYC

Hey Guys, glad I found this post. Thought I was going crazy. Everything is fine on 3G but only google sites and certain non picture portions of other websites will load on 4G.

Strange thing is that all websites are fine on the phone itself while on 4G.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcog42:
Heard someone that's using the paid sprint hotspot is having the same issue, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that this is a temporary issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolrah:
What? You do realize that the only MAC Sprint ever sees is that of the phone, right? As for inspecting headers, not only would that be trivial to get around, but it would also be likely to cause breakage in third-party browsers as the whitelist would likely not be complete. Reliable browser detection via HTTP is near impossible. That also would have no effect on non-HTTP traffic, IMAP e-mail or an XMPP instant message connection for example.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcog42:
I believe there is an individual MAC for every radio in the phone, so you would have a unique MAC for your cell radio, wimax radio, bluetooth radio, etc. Also, I don't believe he's referring to the browser's identity info, but the packet headers that contain DNS/tcp/etc. info that all network services use. That would have an effect on ALL traffic, and it clearly does as nothing works expcept most google services.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conductive:
I have been usb tethering with CM7 since GB6 and it would switch back and forth between 3G and 4G without any problems. Pre GB roms would require google tether which would only work on 4G.

I am now experiencing the same dead 4G tether and am not droping back to 3G since the 4G signal is good. Yep like everybody else the phone by itself is connecting and browsing.

All tether traceroutes and pings seemed reasonable. Flashed back to an earlier working release and it also failed. I have not tried any port other than 80 at this time.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captaindingbat:
I just added the Sprint HotSpot to my account and I can confirm that it's working flawlessly with 4G. Even with the HotSpot feature on the account, wireless tether will not work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conductive:

What wifitether version is everyone using? I'm using 2.0.5
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcog42:
Well, I got home connected to 4G and tethered to my laptop. Everything worked. Might be dependant on what tower you're connected to. I'm using wifi tether 3.0 pre11, but had the issue with 2.0.7.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captaindingbat:
I believe you're correct. I downloaded 3.0 pre11 and still nothing. Strangely enough it would allow streaming of an Amazon video on the browser but it worked on 2.0.5 as well. I wonder what clearwire is doing on their end. Does anybody have any ideas on circumventing it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpav2004:
I didn't go into much detail since I was posting from my phone, but allow me to expound now. Wifi-tether does nothing more than NAT your internal network to it's live IP address, whether that be on 4G or 3G. Both of these radios have the physical addresses that would not be hard to trace on a cellular network. When the packets are transmitted, as is the case with any packet transmission, the only information that gets changed as the packet passes through the NAT is the IP address. All of the other information stays the same. Now, in terms of most traffic, this isn't a big deal, but with HTTP and HTTPS traffic, the stream of data sent contains the header of the browser sending the request. Since the NAT doesn't mask this data, it's sent out into the wild blue yonder (Sprint's Clearwire WAN) where the capability of inspecting the packet header is very easy to do with most enterprise grade equipment. Now, while any blacklist of headers will inevitably be incomplete, a very simple whitelist of 'known' headers - such as mobile browsers on the market and the included browser on the phone - can be implemented with a few short lines of code. Now, while it might seem trivial, how many users are going to attempt to obfuscate or change their packet header identifiers just to get online? They'll give up, use another connection, or just view the pages on the phone.

I tested this for awhile today, using multiple different browsers on my PC and got nothing. I opened up a VPN connection to my workplace, and routed all my traffic through that (that is, encrypted in an IPSEC tunnel) and the internet worked fine. The most brilliant part, from Sprints point of view, is that the HTTP session is never actually 'closed', just kept in a perpetual waiting state where no data is transmitted. If this is all a fluke, it's the best bandwidth saving fluke Sprint could ever dream up.

All in all, I'm really really hoping this is a snafu, but all signs are pointing to sprint catching onto our usage, which is a huge uh-oh.

edit: I was still able to ssh and telnet via my tether, and open up the VPN and receive email, which points to this being a targeted attack on HTTP. Double uh-oh.

I replaced it through samsung, as long as you didn't root it then you should be ok, or as long as it is on stock without root. Just tell them that your calling to see if you have warranty. Then they will ask you what your imei number, which is located on the back. Then read it to them and they will tell you if it has warranty or not. To convince them to take it in, just make up something. Don't tell them that you dropped it or something, just tell them that it won't turn on and that you don't know why or something, hope this helps.

[Vibrant General] BriDroid-74:
Yep, just try both and see what works better for you. I have, and I like the Trigger 2.7 personally. Just seems "flashier" and shows off the phone a little better, in my opinion.

Tried both, can't tell the difference speed wise. Battery life is also good on both.
[Vibrant General] Shrivel:
For me the biggest difference between the two is level of "polish." They are both nice ROMs, but Trigger is just slightly better IMO in regards to the slickness and cosmetic appeal. As was stated above, it's the ROM to show off your phone to friends.

And I never experience any slow-downs or lagginess anywhere and I can't remember the last time I had a FC.
