Engadget loading really slow - Off-topic

For some reason engadget does not load or it is very very slow
this happens time to time on other sites also.
yahoo/google load up fast as anything but there are lags on other sites.
anyone else having this problem?

Hrm... Miren will not load anything for me right now,
I opened "web" and google/engadget/yahoo etc came right up. That is annoying...
Edit: wtf Miren working fine on Wifi. Tried clearing Miren data I can get to google and google stuff, but can't get engadget or newegg or yahoo to load.
Edit2: Well than I tried Web again and it didn't load so it appears I may be having data issues anyway at the moment.

I wasn't, this is the first problem I have had but I typically have poor data at work (i work in a school, giant brick enclosure) and so far the Skyrocket has been wayyy better at work but today I had some data issues. I haven't had a chance yet to mess with it more.

awesome speeds are def consistent now!

This is happening to the Vivid as well I was told ATT was working on a fix

hmm seems im not the only one with a problem, i damn near went to best buy to swap the thing for another.

Called AT&T, they asked me if I can try that sim out on a Vivid at the store to see if I get the same problems. If it does, they'll swap out the sims or if it doesn't, they'll swap the phones. I know it's not the phones. They even said themselves that the "pta" network is brand new so they're still working out the kinks.
I wouldn't have called if the "change your APN" settings had working MMS capabilities. It doesnt, and I really do need that.

Just went and swapped out for a new vivid and LTE sim card. Same problems. Me and the rep checked the 4 phones on display, 2 skyrockets and 2 vivids , all were showing the same problems.
This is in Frederick, MD.

Nexus one
I'm trying to install Mobitv. After downloading the apk. How do I install it?
Even though we can get the apk, do you think we still have to pay the $9.99/month for the service? lol...
Hi ya, what is this application for ?
Appears to run at Backflip's resolution. Says application is not available and closes on my AT&T N1.
resolution needs to be fixed.
says that the mobitv is unavailable. try again later
does not work on wifi
on my tmo n1
looks promising though
Once somebody gets their hands on a /system dump for the galaxy s we should see a working version of this.
im pretty sure one of the great people on this site can get this working for us
i got it to work but only got the 4 minute trail. im not sure we will be able to take this any further seeing how we actually gotta pay a monthly fee on this n with the way the image looked, its not worth the $9.99/month they want
Post in "Nexus One Themes and Apps"
Any update?
hey i used this file on my nexus one and the menu shows in backflip resolution but when you select a channel it plays in full screen but in backflip resolution, so its not 100% clear but sound is awesome. any ways the trial ran out, i clicked purchase for 9.99 a month and called att to cancel it. when i called they said there was no record of me purchasing the app and there is nothing on my account for 9.99 a month. therefore i guess becuase we have the apk we can jus install and since the app is "not compatible" with nexus one then it will go through and let us watch for free. so far so good. jus hope someone out there can fix the resolution. i was watching the world cup game yesterday and looked fine, shoot for free mobi tv how can i complain.

I just got my Nexus7 3G in Chile (bought in US).
everything was working fine but after install the Micro SIM (a standard sim, chopped according to mobile company people instructions), the tablet doesn't get data transfer (already purchased a data pack).
on google's support site for nexus, the only solution was "contact AT&T support" but that's for a AT&T user, and here I'm trying to another company (CLARO).
No info on XDA-dev's forum about this issue.
please, some help here...

If its compatible with your carrier then its gotta be an APN discrepancy. What APN settings are you using?

Actually I have a problem with mine dropping WiFi all together. I know it is working because my husband's iPhone stays connected and it still works when mine has dropped. Lost 4 calls today because of that problem. Tried tinkering with the WiFi setting on the One between 2.5 ghz and 5 ghz and auto. Makes no difference. Connection lasts maybe 5 or 10 minutes then it disconnects. If you have a solution let me know.

Have you tried looking to see if your phone is actually saving the password? It is saved in the following location;
/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Open this file up using a file explorer with root capabilities. Is your network SSID and password in there?

It is saving it because all I do to get it back on
Is turn off WiFi and turn it back in again. Then it works for five minutes or so. And I looked at the link that was provided above and made sure I had WiFi on always power saver off etc. See what it does tonight.

Sorry, my response was directed towards the OP. Should have made that clearer.
Sometimes dropped connections with android phones comes from having your router set to 'auto' for channel selection. If yours is this setting, try changing it to a fixed channel. Use the app Wi-Fi Analyzer to find a clear channel.

Well I contacted HTC, and I did the steps ad posted above and so far no problem. Of course it will probably happen after I post this knock on wood. Didn't have to do what HTC said below since it works now but will definitely do it if the problem persists. I also uninstalled a battery widget because one of the posts said to try that also.
We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with the Wi-Fi connection on your HTC One and can certainly provide some assistance to help resolve the issue.
To start, we will need to check a setting on the device. From the Home screen, access Settings>Wi-Fi>Menu>Advanced. Make sure the DLNA Auto-IP is disabled. Also, I know you have also changed it prior but set the Wi-Fi frequency band to 2.4 GHz. We will need test the combination to see if there is any difference.
If needed, we will need to make sure there is not an issue with the phone trying to get through your network’s security. For this, we will first need to remove the network from the phone. Access Settings>Wi-Fi then tap and hold on the name of the network to select Forget Network. Once done, reboot the phone and temporarily remove the security from the network. It should be open with no password and the SSID being broadcast. This is only temporary so we can test the phone to see if the same thing continues with an unsecured network. Once this is tested, you can add the security back to the network.
We would also recommend testing the phone with other public networks to see if you still having issues with the connection.
Feel free to reply should you have any further questions, Christina. If you feel more comfortable discussing issues by phone, you can contact Technical Support at 1-866-449-8358, 8 am to 1 am ET, 7 days a week.

Having the same issue with the wifi. Connection is erratic even if I am in the same room as the router/superhub. I went to the store today and they tested it there as well. They uninstalled some power saving apps and it seemed to work ok but at home same issues. Loosing connection when surfing and if I leave the room no connection at all.
Will have to get back to the store tomorrow to get it replaced.

Yea man...I remember you...haha. The One is bringing a lot of good people over from what I've been seeing.
As far as using an international ROM, yes I am....was using Trickdroid, but now I'm trying out AndroidRevolution 8.0...same issue. Next time I flash another Rom, I'll try the international setting instead of the ATT setting. Wouldn't I have to change the APN if I did that, or does that setting adjust something else?

Nah I didn't have to change anything. I get average 15-25 meg lte speed. A lot of guys were having the WiFi passwords reset on boot with the att package checked in aroma. From what I've seen the only difference with international & att is the signal icons. I had to switch because WiFi tether wasn't working under att.

sprint s4 metropcs mms fix

This is to fix Mms message on metropcs flashed sprint galaxy s 4 your phone most already be flashed to metropcs with working internet, Flash the zip in recovery and reboot, mms messages should work from first boot. This will last thru a factory reset.
Edit: I was ask to add some details as to wat the zips doing and wat I do. I edit the mms-config.xml in the stock Mms.apk/SecMms.apk to settings from verizon which work for metropcs, I also use an apns-conf.xml that I edited for metropcs. the zip will mount data and mount system, it will delete Mms.apk/SecMms.apk and Mms.odex/SecMms.odex, it will delete dalvik-cache for Mms.apk/SecMms.apk, it will delete the telephony.db file in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ which countains apns. it will replace Mms.apk/SecMms.apk with the one I edited for metropcs it also replaces the apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/ which countains the default apns for the one I edited for metropcs (on first boot the phone will create a new telephony.db with the default apns countained in this apns-conf.xml, that is why this fix lasts thru a datawipe/factory reset). For more details take a look at the updater-script.
for the 4.3 script, flash the zip - reboot to system. Then open dialer and dial ##3282# hit edit enter spc then go to more then lte apn settings and click the circle on the right of the global roaming apn to activate it then hit home and all should be good
if you have issue where messaging app has default android icon use root explorer go to /system/app long press on SecMms.apk select move hit back hit back again go to /sdcard and paste SecMms.apk on sdcard, it should now show the up on sdcard with normal icon long press on SecMms.apk select move hit back go to /system/app and paste SecMms.apk back in /system/app and reboot phone should now show normal messaging icon
I am not responseable for anything that happens

Hang on...I must clarify. As much as I love to profit off of Metro flashes, we need to get the facts straight.
Flashed phones to Metro will not work nationwide. Boost will. Metro has better talk & text in their coverage area, but their data can either be equal to or slightly slower then Boost (depends what time of the day you're on the network). We also JUST got 3g here in the Tampa Bay area, and we're a huge market, go figure.

ive had very good luck though if i may say so myself. i have traveled to florida new york san francisco and alabama and gotten very good coverage on my flashed s3 from verizon and im suing the 3033 prl in atlanta. its faster than i could have hoped for. i have heard though before that flashed phones do not work well outside of the state theyre flashed in but aside form that metro itself has bigger coverage than boost and sprint. and now they are merging with t-mobile although im still not sure how thats working out because theyre rolling out city by city certain thing such as hartford dallas baltimore and i think boston.

interesting. almost a year ago we had 3g coverage over here in saint pete, i had to use a special prl on my step brothers admire 3g to get it to load up right though.
now a days its all lte anyways so no one uses 3g
Then you would have been the first. I've been flashing in this area for over 2 years at least, and none of my fellow flashers in the area got 3g besides 1 tower near University Mall.
Can you tell us about this special prl?

The most weird thing is: I went to the store fore return. When I hit the store, my phone works with LTE outside of the store. I have to go home. Now my phone still has no LTE connection.
It looks like that it is Sprint or HTC software issue. I had no clue what to do though.

Call Sprint customer care and have them check your UICC ID under settings/about/phone identity. I had exchanged my phone and this number didn't update and caused me to not get 4g when others had it. Its the same number as your SIM ID and is required to match your phone. Seems to be a common issue with setting up the HTC One since is has a SIM Card. They may argue with you that its for International only....tell them I understand that but you have seen others with this problem and that their UICC ID numbers did not match on the account and that its required to make 4g work.
Ok, thanks

Yea you have to call them with confidence that you know what the issues are. And in markets they have not launched yet just explain that data is very bad on this phone and you get a lot of dropped calls. Then just ask them to please verify the numbers on your account with the phone....and especially the UICC ID.
I live in LA as well, and I only get LTE in a few different specific areas. Should I call them to make sure all of my numbers are correct? Is there anything else I can do?

PM me your zip code(s) of where you use your phone the most. I will send you a map of those areas and the towers that are upgraded. Not everything is complete there.

I called sprint today, and they confirmed
The uicc I'd #, and it was correct on there system. ...what they have me do was to remove the SIM card, turn off the phone, put back the SIM card in, turn on the phone, update profile & prl. After doing this after 5 mins it showed the 4g on my phone, only for about 5sec.....then it went back to 3g....this was a good sign tho* .. I'm going to try it tommarrow at work since over there there's a steady lte connection...hope it works

Well if not you can always do an Insurance replacement if you have it. There is always a chance you have a bad radio.

Could you please send me the map a zip 90703? Thanks a lot,
