Hello.
In the very beginning of using my mtcb device, there was an option in the settings with auto brightness. It worked with the illumination wire.
I don't know really, what I changes, but it isn't working anymore or let's say, the option isn't there anymore.
What I have done is switching between different Roms and changed a few things in factory settings. Can there be the problem?
The second one: anybody here using a 4g stick? Is it possible? Which model are you using?
I am really unhappy my 3g stick, working with my old parrot Android device, is not working on this one. Which ones are you using?
Thanks for the help

I just ordered a Huawei wingle.
It's an USB-powered Wifi-stick.
It turns on by it self when it get's power, and then it makes a wifi-hotspot, that the radio connects to automaticly.
(I haven't recived it yet, but i hope that it works excatly as i described).
wifi isn't a problem, it's build in. i really just interested in 3g or better 4g

right, it was a misunderstanding. then i use it like i do already. i use it now with my phone as a hotspot. that could be a solution, thought about that already. but a real 3g/4g surfstick i would prefer

Here's the list of supported 3g usb modems. I've been experimenting with some newer 4g modems but haven't had a lot of success yet.
thanks for that.

I'm sure it has to do with which kernel modules were compiled in. And as far as I know, we don't have any true original android ROMs for our units, so that's not likely to change soon.

ok i have the HTC CDMA Sprint HERO.. and im woundering if there is anything i can do/install on my phone to improve 3G reception at my house... i have ify spots at my house where it just wont hold 3g.. is there like an external antenna i can plug in.. or can i wire one in... ive allready installed the radio update. but it didnt really help.. thanks for your time.. i hope someone can help me..
Try all of the radios, not just the most recent, some are better for some than others.
Also, if you call sprint and complain about splotchy coverage they may give you an AirRave - caveat: you have to have high speed internet for those to work.
well the AirRave thing wont work.. lol the reason why i need my phone in 3g is so i can teather it lol.. but do you happen to have a link for the radios?
and i just flash the radios zip file right? and it will over write the one i have installed now?

Yeah, Read the directions on that website.
Make sure you ONLY EVER get radios from this site OR this sub forum of XDA. This can brick your phone....
They flash a little differently than a rom. After you tell it the update.zip you want to flash, you will see it reboot to a different background image. If it appears stuck after a few minutes, roll your scroll wheel and see if the selection at the top changes. if it does, then its done.... I think... been a while...
Better yet...read the directions.

unless you've found a workaround, I don't believe tethering works over 3G on the Sprint network unless you have an EVO - tethering does work over WiFi with the Hero.

Flash an Eris based ROM. Note this this may break the Sprint apps (NFL, Nascar, etc Nav and TV will still work)

This topic is for development of the Wifi apk for the vibrant. Please DO NOT discuss what wifi means to you or how excited you are about it. I am posting this in hopes that a developer can make this work.
Only comment here if you can contribute and make this work. (what i have provided is the extent of my knowledge)
The apk installs, loads, but will not connect. It gets stuck on 'enabling' and shreads the battery trying.
Perhaps the servers are just not up yet since this is so new..
UPDATE: According to TMo News, T-mobile has stated that they do not support wifi calling yet... so hopefully this app not working is just a result of no server support yet..

Took a look at it and so far its either missing a VPN module or its pointing at settings that we dont have. Right now its looping trying to connect to localhost.
This does ADB install fine, but it doesnt connect if you disable it and try to re-enable it.
Side effect, it was constantly looping trying to connect the service and wasnt very happy about uninstalling when I tried, wouldnt recommend anyone install it unless they have the settings or an idea where we can grab them from
Soon as I get the OTA ill scour for the settings. Soon as I have any updates to it ill tweet/post
Thanks Viral, scepterr says it needs a kernel module and we need source code for that
Why ADB...just hit install...running it on Froyo, I cant tell if its working or not because Tmobile DID fix my signal at my house LOL

You can still make calls and it will say its working but if you turn it off and back on, itll eternally sit at attempting to make connection.

The app he is using is called SystemPanel. It's very useful.
I suggest removing this app in the mean time. Its a CPU hog and 50% of my battery use.

According to TMO News, the wifi calling is not supported yet as stated by T-Mobile.
“Wi-Fi Calling and tethering Wi-Fi sharing are not currently supported on the T-Mobile G2. T-Mobile knows these features are important to consumers and we’re working to deliver them to G2 users in the future. We have nothing further to announce at this time.”
http://tinyurl.com/3yltw9a
This was one of my theories... that would be an easy and good answer for why it will not connect yet...
Looks like theres no luck on the g2 end either, its still missing some configuration or something.

Adding to think tank section of the bible for easy retrieval just in case the thread slows.
Something tells me TMo is going to wait, either for the release of the MyTouch HD or they'll release it on a bunch of phones all at once as a way to boost sales before Christmas.
Looks like G2 will have this app soon enough. I can't wait to have it on the vibrant.
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/11/t-mobile-g2-to-get-wi-fi-calling-update-starting-tomorrow/
The reason why this app isn't working is because you need a Wifi calling plan which tmobile is rolling out soon and it requires a data plan of 19.99 or higher which pretty much everyone has because the 200 mb plan has not rolled out yet.
Has anyone gotten the wifi calling G2 OTA update yet? Can you let us know if the wifi calling now works on the G2? Thanks.
Yes and it works awesome!

Thanks. So it looks like both now the G2 and myTouch 4G are up and running with wifi calling. They both have in common that they are running 2.2. So am I to assume that the apk app on both of them is the same and that it will also run on the Vibrant once it gets the 2.2 update?

HTC Diagnostics is *#*#3424#*#*
There is nothing like you are looking for. ##3424 opens up diag mode for usb diag. What exactly are you wanting to test? Speed? Read/write? Signal strength? There are diff tests but most devices in the same class have minimal diff in those areas.

I thought what he wanted was a way to test the phone to make sure everything is working. The diagnostics test can test the screen, battery, cellular data, etc and let you know if the phone is functioning properly and he can buy.

Diag Mode on Custom Rom
How would we get DIAG Mode on a custom rom? I am using Slim Rom for Sprint HTC One and can't use the dialer to enable diag mode since it doesn't have the stock dialer.
You have to use a sense based Rom in order to access the menu and I believe the stock dialer is required so if ur Rom is stock based just push the dialer apk.

Hello XDA,
So I've purchased my 1st quad-core phone Saturday. I'm extremely happy about the phone's cosmetics and performance. Of course, being the flash-aholic that I am, I decided to beef it up!! After finially getting an AOSP rom that I felt comfortable with, I flashed and everything was great.... Until I noticed that my data stopped working. The funny thing is if I turn on airplane mode, make a call, or restart the phone the data comes on for about 2 minutes and then turns back off. After messing around with settings and such, I restored my stock rom. On the stock rom data works like it should. So I decided to try 2 other roms. One being GE and the other AOSP. Both are doing the same thing with data connectivity.
Is this a known issue? Did I do something wrong? I looked through the Q&A's and I didn't find anything. Keep in mind that I am very experienced up to full development of rooting/flashing/customizing/etc
Thanks in Advanced!!!!!
Update: T-mobile is my service provider
*bump*
It's imperative that I find out if this is fixable or not as I will return the unit if it's not...
Apologies

Did you try updating the radio firmware to match the ROM that you were using? Did you try another Sense ROM to see if the issue wasn't an underlying setting from a GE or AOSP ROM? Did you flash a custom Kernel? Did you match the RILs? Lots of things that you could try to isolate the issue.

I use PA from the regular HTC One forum even though I'm on T-Mobile... It shouldn't matter, I still get the same speeds. Some different ROMs will use different names, like the aosp stuff uses 3g, H, H+ and LTE. In order to enable lte you have to go into the settings for mobile data, APN and then make sure it's the one that's like fast.tmo whatever. That's the LTE APN

what's the exact APN name that should be there? I was reading about it but no one said what T-mobile's APN should be. they just noted that it should be changed the correct carrier.

I am trying to see if maybe its my phone radio or wifi antenna is not working correctly. I flashed the latest radio and doesn't seem to be helping either. on 4glte I am getting 1.44mbs for download.and on my wifi I am getting 3.61mbs for download. I have nothing else connected to my wifi. Wondering if maybe I should Ruu my phone and take it into best buy and have them look at it or give me a new one.

Also, have you just done a straight stock flash, then update PRL? None of that should effect your WiFi though, I would test with another device..
Yes I have tested a computer, iPhone, and ipad and all get iver 20mbs+ on same wifi. Thats why I am wondering if it's my phone.

It quite possibly is, that is very odd.
Have you gone 100% stock, then tried it? (you have modded the phone somewhat if you are flashing a radio)

Then do a speed test with WiFi. If you get the same speed, return the device for a new one.
Alright sounds good. Cause I have trued a couple of different roms and get about the same speed. Cause someone told me it might have been a rom and since it's not I figured I would asks others.

Agreed. This way, you get a baseline reading with the phone, with it operating "as it should" with the stock ROM and settings. If it doesn't work stock, then you are going to have a hell of a time trying to get it to work any other way, if at all.
Alright I ruu back. The one wifi speed is the same. and on my other router it is faster.
