[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fierceeagle2003:
Is there any way to boost my 4g signal? Its around the corner , im just not close enough..thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
As far as I know, no. Not unless you get a clear module, which is like your own hotspot, but you have to pay for it per month. Also people have had issues with the signal being lost/weakens when going from outside to inside buildings.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] protoadies:
Airave wont boost your wimax, totally diffrent everything. Not sure if there is a wimax booster
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Typo, I meant to say clear. But the clear hotspot would be his only option. Or use 4G outside.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fierceeagle2003:
Thanks guys, and i got an airwave its great for 3g boost in home but not 4g
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well as I said for a 4G boost, you'd have to get a Clear hotspot, which is for 4G, or use 4G outside.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgruendler:
You could try aluminum foil.:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
Actually, there is way to adjust your Wimax setting to allow it to pick up weaker signals. You need your MSL code. Do a ##3282#, go to edit mode, enter the MSL code, go to Wimax, and find the "WiMAX_Entry_RX(RSSI)(dBm) and adjust it from -89 to -95 and continue in small increments until you find a sweet spot.

I got this from a thread on here that another member created. I tried searching for it to post this but I couldn't find it. I take no credit for figuring this out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If I am not mistaken, that only works on a sense rom, correct? Then he'd have to flash black.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
Yea, that's right......AOSP roms lose EPST functions. Being a Sense user, that totally slipped my mind. However, he has not mentioned if he is on an AOSP rom, so it may still help him.

not sure if this posted the first time...Dont know what to do at this point...any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Here is what all i have done so far. Late 2010 i downloaded OCLF from android market and rooted 2.1 Eclair had consistant Quad score from 2300-2450. Phone started acting glitchy and slow so i used app to unroot and root back. Worked great for a little while then same problems repeated. So i thought i'll update 2.2 then reroot. Waited on 2.2 through Samsung Kies to release and updated. 1st attempt phone rooted but when booted up it didnt recognize sim or memory card and about 5 force close screens appeared when on home screen. Also, wifi stopped working completely so i bought a new router and it worked again(tried on other wifi locations to test issue before and after). Samsung Kies wouldnt allow another update so i used Odin and it seemed to force everything through. Tried downloading SuperOneClick on WinXP went to root error stated i needed .net 2.0 file, so i downloaded .net v3.5. Went to root again and same error missing 2.0 file. Tried using One Click Root and copied files to memory card clicked 2.2 root phone reboots and i get the "signature verification failed error" a majority seem to be receiving(both done on WinXP and Mac 10.6.6-on Mac phone reboots fine but there is no root in place). Ive also tried other methods i've read about such as OneClickLagFix and z4root, downloading to computer placing on memory card using "MyFiles" that comes stock on device and "Astro Manager" from android market. When i extract files i get a security error that At&t has wonderfully put in place. Also tried rebooting into recovery mode to apply update.zip file and there is no option to install specific file only option to reinstall packages and when i reinstall i get signature verification error. THEN i used Odin to go back to 2.1 tried using SuperOneClick and One Click Root same problems repeat. Used Samsung Kies to go back to 2.2 to make a little faster since i cant seem to root either way and now i have no 3 button recovery mode or download mode. Purchased 3 ohm resistors for a Jig in case i EVER need download mode since my phone seems to be all sorts of messed up(or maybe its just user error). Ive tried many other ways and methods but this post is already too long to list. Phone seems to be running decent Quad score between 1000-1050 but i would appreciate ANY advice to root on either 2.1 or 2.2. I'm running Windows XP and Macbook w/ v. 10.6.6 and i feel as though i had exhausted all options!! PLEASE HELP!?!?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imurg:
First of all. DO NOT PANIC. In order to solve your problem, first thing you need to do is leave everything as it is right now and head for the closest Starbucks, drink your coffee slowly and read the paper.

After you calm down, come back and do the following:

1) Read complete this posting and watch all three videos

2) Using one click ODIN flash back to JF6. If you don't have the three button combo use the DG ODIN that has the three button fix.

3) Do a master clear

4) In this point you have your phone like a brand new captivate on JF6. You can either use Kies or install CWM and install a new ROM.

5) I would recommend a new ROM that you like. Try one that you can flash directly with CWM because it is easier.

Best of lucks

[Nook Color General] mrfeh:
Hi folks.

I installed customized nookie froyo five days ago. I also overclocked the CPU, using the "set at boot" option.

I placed the nook on the charger last night, and later noticed it had rebooted, or at least was trying to reboot...

The "nookie froyo" animation during the boot process simply freezes, then tries to restart again, freezes, ad infinitum. :eek:

Don't know if it has anything to do w/ the overclocked kernel or not. Is this a common problem? Is there a way to fix it without re-installing?

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] wildkarrde21:
I actually had the same thing happen to me (OC-ed, endless reboot), I ended up having to restore to stock. I wasn't entirely sure if it was because of the OC-ing, but since you're in a similar situation, it can't be coincidental.
[Nook Color General] mrfeh:
Did you actually need to restore to stock, or could I just install a different image?

Anybody want to chime in on the current state of the non-stock options? Are CM7 or honeycomb looking pretty stable, or should I stick w/ froyo?

Thanks.
[Nook Color General] miniaturepeddler:
How did you overclock? Via a kernal flash or via setcpu (the app)?

Depending on which you used will determine your next step.

If it simple was a kernal, simply use cwm and flash a new kernal.

Thing i have found to help me the past week has been my rom backups from rom manager.

I have been able to recover from 3 'bad' installs and return to my custom froyo 0.6.8 each time so far.

I use the 0.6.8 on sd to get to rommanager when i have overflashed my emmc.
[Nook Color General] mrfeh:
I had used setcpu.

I reinstalled, using ultimate droid 3.1.2.
[Nook Color General] miniaturepeddler:
Good to hear you are back up and running then.

Question: How far did you push your Nook?

I am using the Setcpu with mine and have it set at 1000 as the max.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdma:
Is there anyone else having issues with the sound of Pandora using new ROMS. I tried uninstalling it, reinstalling it, made sure high quality was set, tried to look for the media setting in the build prop and change it but that setting disappeared a few releases ago, and have searched through everything and still have a hard time listening to Pandora in the car because of the quality. I am not saying it is as poor as it was when 2.2 first came out but it is poor. The voices are tinny and turned way up is piercing to the ears. Base is great! But that is it. Any help would be greatly appreciated since I got rid of XM radio years ago and am strictly using Pandora.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davwman:
Use the modded transparent unlimited skip version in the transparent market thread in theme section its in the opening post with a link all by its self at the bottom. Make sure you delete all Pandora data and cache as well as removing Pandora. Quality is perfect. I'd link it but I'm on xda app.

Also don't update it.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mithos der Held:
If your running CM look to see if you have DSP Manager, and make sure it's not compressing the audio, or the equalizer is on. I had compression somehow turned on one time by accident. Turned it off and it was worlds better.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V0latyle:
I haven't had an issue with the sound quality...I agree with Mithos, perhaps your DSP settings are off?

I have had an issue with Pandora over Bluetooth dropping out, though. Happens only on first connect, if I turn Bluetooth off and on again it seems to resolve the issue...
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdma:
Nope did not have compression on and I have DSP. I also download slacker and it does the same thing. I guess since it is just me maybe there is osme other program that is causing the issue. Have no clue which one since it is pretty much stock
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdma:
Just want to let everyone know, a while back I was complaining about Pandora and Slaker. I decided to try a differnt ROM just to see if it was an issue with 7 and it appears that it is. I loaded Nils' Business Sense and it sounds great. To me there is a big change and I am not sure what it is. I did try multiple kernels. The thing is it sounds OK in a headset or listening it through a speaker on the phone but putting it on the car stereo where you amplify the music you can really hear some sound artifacts.
[Desire HD General] MonsieurD:
My Desire HD behaves very strangely when I am at my office, draining the battery (with screen off) at an average rate of 60-70mA, while at home the drain is what most people get with custom ROMs (3-4mA).

The difference between office and home? I have examined what differed between the two and I have found that it has to do with the wireless network.

At home: wifi router

At the office: Windows 7 computer with USB Connectify "router"

I know it has to do with wifi because if I turn wifi off at the office, the drain is also 3-4.

I also know it is not just apps or data synchronization because at home I have everything the same way and the drain is 4-5mA.

Further, if I turn connectify off (and lose my wifi router) while leaving the phone's wifi on, I get the same low drain that I get at home.

I am sure it has something to do with Connectify, but I have no idea what is the difference (from the phone's point of view) between connectify's wifi and my home router wifi.

By now, I have reset to factory default couple of times but still after about 50hrs of usage my Nexus One starts acting freaky! Performance slows down, launching apps gives me black screen, lock screen freezes until I receive a call and not answer it and finally forcing me to reboot the phone.

Is anyone else aware of these issues or experiencing these issues?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkeyboy0076:
I've had a few, repeated issues since upgrading to Gingerbread:

The stock messaging application will sometimes crash after sending a text message. The message gets sent, but the program closes out and returns me to the home screen. When I try to get back into the app, it animates like it is opening, animates like its closing and then gives me an error message about it not responding. I have found the only way to get rid of this is to reboot the phone.

Occasionally, all of the items - icons, widgets, etc - will disappear from the home screen. All I can see is my background image (just a plain JPEG, nothing animated) and cant get anything else to happen. I've tried to give it a few minutes (coming from Windows Mobile, I've learned to be patient) but it never came back. As expected, only a full reboot of the phone fixed the problem.

I've been having strange WiFi and data connection problems. Sometimes when connecting to WiFi it takes several minutes to establish a working connection; however most times it is pretty instant. The data connection will sometimes completely drop out and not come back on its own - even in areas with known good signal (I'm on AT&T, insert jokes here). Again, the best solution I've found is a full reboot.

I have heard some reports from friends that they have experienced issues with Exchange support after the upgrade, but I haven't seen it personally. Other than those above issues (which are very annoying) Gingerbread is has been OK. As I like to tell everyone, I'm sure glad my phone makes a cool TV of animation but can't seem to want to send text messages... Thanks Google?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sarshadd:
I've had trackball notification issues. First it stopped working entirely. After a restore it now only blinks notifications if the screen is off. Once the screen is turned on (even if the phone isn't unlocked) it stops. If the screen is on when the notification is recieved nothing happens.

I'm experiencing battery drain that i believe is associated with maps and location services (the alogcat shows it checking in all the time!).

I've had the launcher become unresponsive to touch. You can use the trackball to navigate, its slow, and once you're inside an app it works fine. Need to restart.

I've had the blank keyboard show up and need to restart.

I'm probably going to switch back to 2.2.2 tonight...

I have also been affected by the "black screen" problem after about 48 hours uptime. Returning to the home screen shows just the wallpaper and no icons. Pressing the "Home" button worked for a while to bring back the icons, but eventually most apps started showing some black screens and I had to reboot to fix the problem. I'm sticking with Gingerbread 2.3.3 for now, but it is disturbing after the multi-week uptimes I was getting under FroYo 2.2.2.
[Atrix 4G General] ddp86:
I had an iPhone4 before I got my atrix and I had unlimited data on my iphone, so I bought my atrix without a contract in order to keep that data plan. I received the following text message this morning:

Did you know an eligible data plan is required for your 4G smartphone? Pls call 611 to select a plan and establish your 4g data connection today​

Right now i am beyond angry because it seems like they are just trying to take away my unlimited data. The reason I say this is because the iPhone 4 does the handshaking to get true HSUPA and my phone does not. Therefore I am paying for a plan with a service that doesnt even exist, where my original plan (for the iphone 4) actually covers HSUPA. Does anyone know a way around this? I definitely dont want to lose my unlimited data. Is there anyway to get out of my contract? I would just as soon switch carriers before giving into paying for a crappy data plan (no offense to anyone who has the plan, you just didnt have the option :)) on a crappy carrier.

Thanks for the help in advance.

[Atrix 4G General] mrphil101:
They don't want the unlimited plans out there. The are going to force all non I-phone users to go to tiered plans. Once they take it off, you will not be able to get them to give it back either. If you don't go with the tiered plan, when u use the non iphone device, they will throttle your throughput at 2 gb. It is a horrible decrease in speed. Still have unlimited, only it is extremely frustrating when you hit the 2 gb limit. Remeber, in AT&T's eyes, it's not about you.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Yeah, it almost makes me want to switch to a tiered plan and just pay the $10 for an extra GB if I need it and avoid the throttling. It's quite frustrating. Makes me really want to switch to Sprint.

[Atrix 4G General] co.ag.2005:
proof?

I've been using my old iPhone unlimited data plan since last year when I picked up the Nexus One. I am still using my unlimited data plan with my Motorola Atrix. My speeds aren't throttled (except HSUPA which is NOT due to me being on an unlimited plan) and I have gone above 2GB several times since switching to Android and have not been charged for it, penalized, or had my speeds throttled.

OP: AT&T will let you keep your unlimited iPhone data plan for your Atrix. I have it, many others on this forum have it.

[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
it's most likely because you didn't switch your current data plan to a non-iphone smartphone plan. they are different plans in the way that they handle data. you can keep your unlimited when switching across data plan types (i.e. i went from BB data plan to regular smartphone unlimited). but since you didn't switch it over, they flagged you since your IMEI gives up that you are no longer using an iPhone.

The cap for unlimited is 5GB, not 2GB.
[Atrix 4G General] apolloms:
like others have said they will switch you to an unlimited non iphone data plan. same thing happened to me. the rep said "oh we dont offer the unlimited plan anymore" I told her that I should be grandfathered in since I had the unlimited plan before, she put me on hold, then 5 min later she came back and said i was right and put me on the unlimited non iphone plan
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
I'm sorry but I keep laughing about this. It's just funny it is being referred to as "non-iphone plan".

I have unlimited...

When I went to the AT&T store last week to get my Atrix, I specifically asked them if we would have to get a new plan for 4G, or could we keep our grandfathered unlimited plan from my iPhone. She told me there was no extra charge, and gave me a 4G sim card to boot! I am not in a 4G area, so I won't know if I will get charged or not, but the store rep told me that even if I used 4G, I wouldn't have to pay any other extra fees.
[Atrix 4G General] JayRolla:
Unlimited data plans are also for 3g ONLY! Not sure if that was mentioned. If you lucky enough to live in an area where H+ is live you have to go to the 2gb or 4gb data plan to get those speeds, which right now are barely faster than 3g download and the upload is horrible.

You also didnt have to buy the phone out of contract. I bought mine with my upgrade for $200 and was grand fathered over too my 3g data plan which is called the Smart phone unlimited.

Verizon with there 17-20mb download on there LTE network is looking pretty good now. But thats still not even live in my area so it doesnt madder.
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
