Annoying GPRS...is a bug or not?

Hello all,
I'm getting tired with my new HTC Touch Dual (codename Nike). I use an UMTS operator where i've free internet traffic. When my first operator has no signal, my phone go on GSM roaming. Here, even if I've no applications opened, starts sometimes GPRS/EDGE connection that is not free for me, and also have a per-connection price.
I've already tried to disable AlwaysOn key into windows registry. Also I've tried to disable SuspendResume key in
HKLM-->Comm-->ConnMgr-->Planner-->Settings-->SuspendResume
deleted ~GPRS
All without success.
Actualy I'm running WM6,
ce 5.2.1622
build 18128.0.4.4
rom 1.31.408.09
thanks for any advice.

Check that you don't have any program requiring an internet connection that is scheduled to be run every N minutes. Otherwise... I don't know. Maybe someone else will give other ideas.
Controlla di non avere programmi che richiedano una connessione a internet e che siano schedulati per l'esecuzione ogni N minuti. Altrimenti... non saprei. Forse qualcun altro ti darà altre idee.

well I know nothing about UTMS; possibly this will disable UTMS too, but I've seen references to

iPhone like GPS on TP2..??

My cousin has I believe Google maps on his iPhone and his GPS signal has an outward band that kinda echo's off his location, just a cool little feature that caught my attention... Any way to get this on our Google Maps..?? thanks...

Firstly... make sure that you have the most up to date google maps...
When I open up my google maps even without having my gps active I get the circle you are talking about (first screen shot). That is using the aGPS of the phone. When GPS is active my echo circle turns into an arrow (second screen shot).
The "Echo circle" you are talking about is only there because it's showing your estimated location... so you should be somewhere in that circle. When GPS is active it is more procise there for shows the triangle. Make sense?
See if your cousins iphone is actually using gps or if its using aGPS.

Iphone is nothing
My bro have Iphone when he runs his Gps and i start my gps In Htc tp2 ,you can hear just my gps voice Iphone have no voice that sucks. why you dont install google map?

if that helps i can translate in spanish:
hey carnal, cuando arranca el gps comienzo a escuchar aquellas voces esquisofrénicas en mi cabeza, vale para puro pito mi htc.
jaja.

My google maps does the same thing, perhaps his navigation software wasn't google maps (even though he said it was)... I have the blue circle/arrow as well, but his wasn't like that, it was an actual animated radar type of echo that banded away from the circle... Just eye candy I suppose but it looked cool the way it was animated and I was j/w if we had that option as well...

Use the bing app thats available for WinMo.

I used both of those (google and Bing) went to a town that didn't have 3g coverage for my phone and my maps went blank just when I needed them. Switched to Copilot live. No more of that nonsense. Not free but gets me where I need to go.

Well the main reason to have a real GPS unit vs just using your phone is just because of that. A real GPS unit has the maps actually installed into the system, so there is no need for phone signals, only to be able to catch a satellite signal. Phones need both. Copilot I think is sort of the same thing, but also the reason for a much bigger price tag.

im actly a fan of the iPhone GPS as much :/

[Q] Defy+ reboots when Mobile Network Data is Enabled

Hello there!
My Defy+ (Motodefy Plus) reboots when initially powered in 10 seconds after the proposition to create a motoblur account right after the moment the Mobile Data Connection is established. I have written a letter to motorola support 3 days ago, all in vain - I have no answer from them on this matter. There is a way to evade the described reboot - skipping the motoblur registration and disabling [Mobile Network Data] setting in [Data delivery] section of [Battery and data manager] settings helps to prevent automatic reboot cycle. Using Motorola's official site recommendations upon this cycle reboot issue, I have done factory wipe&reset and changed my simcard for a new one, I have tried sims from different operators and tried switching on [2G only] and [3G only] modes. None of this actions helped to cure the reboot cycle. BasebandSwitcher was ineffective as well. *#*#INFO#*#* with its selector did not help to solve the problem. I have made log files by CatLog market application, which point to the source of the problem - the MOTOBLUR raising a bp_panic event. I attach the logs to this post.
The firmware is the handtec stock ROM 134.DFP-84. The Baseband is stock EPU93_U_00.5F.00.
Does anyone have the same problem? I have searched the forum and found similar issues handled by basebandSwitcher, sim change and nordic firmware, but they do not work for me.
Any ideas?

I've got the same issue here with Defy+ . It started rebooting just after unboxed.
Enabling the Mobile Network Data will make almost instant reboot. But sometimes it reboots without having mobile data enabled. Have you sorted this out ? It is really annoying.

Did you skip motoblur registration? I am trying to figure out the pattern of the problem's appearance and origins.. With no success.

I think I did skip the motoblur registration, but later on I've registered.
Mine started rebooting a few seconds after a very first boot. It restarted a couple of times in a row and than stayed fairly stable for a bit. Now I can't use mobile data at all, but it sometimes still reboots anyway. Safest option is the airplanemode :/ . Has motorola support replied to your mail ?

Yes, Motorola did reply to my email. Actually, the techsupport asked for my IMEI number in reply to the bug-report similar to the first post of this topic. This fact distressed me a little. I provided the IMEI and have not heard from Motorola since then..
You should consider contacting them as well, otherwise they will not treat the issue as a serial bug. As it appears to be.
Okay, meet the official Motorola reply:
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
In response to your query, our technical team has checked the issue for you, we would recommend you to check the SIM card, try to replace the SIM card, and please make sure that it does not have the code (N5) on it.
The N5 SIM card was used by several network providers in Europe, and it causes the phone to reboot.
If the problem still persists, we are afraid that we would like you to contact the place of purchase as it might be a faulty phone, we do apologize for this inconvenience.

This is some kind of bull****, I bet they did not even bother to look upon the log-file. I have 4 defy+ at my disposal, three of them work well with all kinds of sims available to me. A disclaimer from Motorola, nothing more.
I offered a remote access to usb debugging via "USB over network" to them, but they seem to ignore this proposition.

I sent the RMA form to handtec, waiting for their decision. The preliminary is to replace the phone for a new one. I hoped to solve the problem quicker though. It was excessively self-confident, I suppose.
It is good to know that if your phone has established the mobile data connection even once and successfully transfered any amount of data through it then it is completely free of the discussed bug.

I've contacted motorola support as well, they advised me to check sim card and do the Factory reset which I'd already done before. To the question if they have encountered this issue they replied they haven't had any similar issues that are not linked to either the sim card or the SD card.
I am going to replace my phone.
Anyway is there any stock SBF for defy+ I can use to get to the original firmware as I've also tried some custom roms ? Thanks

Interesting. So, they did not encounter a similar bugreport from me. Tried to report this problem for the second time through the motorola.com support form, but received a reply from the same person (Abdullah) and the same text to check the sim with a "resolved" mark.
Yes, there is an official stock ROM named 134_DFP-10 from clove.

Good luck with the replacement!

So, it is not a MOTOBLUR problem.. Does it mean that we have a buggy hardware?

Thanks for the official SBF.
Well I suppose it is a hardware problem, but I've just tried different nandroid backup versions with motoblur included so far. So it still might be the motoblur or something software related deeper in the system.
After trying MIUI I can't boot up the phone at all that's why I wanted the stock SBF. A new phone is on the way so I just need to get it how it was and try a new one. I'll let you know if the replacement is working fine or not.

What is your serial number? Mine is M776QS6VFV. I wonder if they are from the same consignment. China TianJin, 2011 September.

Mine is M776QU2L4S. After flasing shadow_2.3.4-134_DFP-10 it worked much better than before, but it still reboots occasionally, but now it is able to establish data connection and download some data.
Anyway the replacement works fine. Software version is identical to the first one.

i was thinking to buy defy+ m from india. should i go for it ?

Definitely yes

Phew, I'm glad I'm not alone , after flashing a custom rom straight away, the phone did reboots with 3G enabled, I was going nuts! I tried baseband changer, every ROM flashable. Currently running CEE SBF 2.3.5, 2G works but reboots from time to time. Eagerly waiting for a solution, will try new SIM, shutupbattery app (possibility of phone rebooting due to low signal). Hope we will find a solution soon!

Had the same problem.
ItS a hardware fault.
I took mine back and got a new one and now its all WORKING!!!

Yep, I thought so and have sent mine back to the store today. Hope soon will get back a new one that'll be all working)

I purchased Defy+ 20 days ago and really like the phone a lot except for the bizzare problem which many have pointed out. the phone reboots at random in middle of conversations or while accessing data through mobile network or while I'm present in area with extremely low network signal.
I suppose these problems are not specific to motorola products only. I've heard many other products to have such or similar problems.
I'm trying out a new SIM card from a different provider, as recommended by few members in other threads. I hope it'd work out.
Fingers crossed....Will update soon.....
Narasimha

Same problem here, as soon as I activate 3G or enable data transfers, my Defy+ reboots. To use it I must be quick enough to disable data et go back to 2G.
This problems happens with or without Motoblur account and I tried to exchange the sim card of a working Xperia, the Defy+ reboots, the Xperia went on good surf!
I also tried to update the android system (from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6), it does not solve anything.
Another test with a SIM card from another service provider (Orange) show me the Defy surfing on the Web with the 3G or H symbol (in blue like for the wifi) and without rebooting. It looks like a frequency band swithching problem because my service provider (Free) does not use the same frequencies for UMTS or 2.5G.
As this problem seems to be ignored by Motorola, I will ask for my money back and buy something else. But on the paper, the Defy+ is a great smartphone.

bonsoir lepat, on a le meme portable et le meme probleme, j'ai toujours pas trouvé de solution au reboot du telephone defy+, j'ai une puce free et je suis obligé de rester en 2G uniquement et encore sa reboot malgré çà. si j'ai bien compris ton post en anglais, le fait de mettre une autre sim comme orange par exemple le telephone fonctionne correctement ?

I had network issues as well, the signal was around 1 or 2 bars, however I since found a way to resolved it by using a service code, check out my steps:
Go into Testing Mode:
1. Launch the Phone app and type:
*#*#4636#*#*
2. Testing Mode will load up, if it doesn't try the code again
3. Scroll down to preferred network types and try a new setting. "LTE/GSM auto (PRL)" helped increase my signal strength here in Warsaw
4. Click turn radio off
5. Turn on Air plane mode/Turn off Air plane mode
6. You may have to repeats these steps until you find a configuration that works for you.
Cheers, also I have attached some screen shots

Zeblaze Thor 4 troubleshooting

Hi I am new to the community, and I just bought a zeblaze thor 4, its really cool, but I was messing with dev option so make the image smaller so I can reach some corners of some apps to reach some options I cant.
So there was a option that is something like simulate screen, and I hit some stupid option so now the visible screen y not working anymore because its supposed to be a bigger simulating screen that doesn't aloud me to use the screen anymore.
I been searching for a solution all day, but it seems like there is almost nothing out there (google search) about this watch.
I ve tried somethings but with no success like:
1-Try to screen cast my watch into my lap using mobizen, but It fails because I couldnt reach the accept button in the watch
2-Cant do any solutions involving adb because i cant enable usb debug because of the same screen problem (unless theres a way to enable directly from a laptop)
3-Team viewer quick support because the watch its not fully compatible with the screen share
4-Reset the watch, but it restarts with the same setting on.
So I f any one can tell me how to reset dev option or how to factory reset this watch without usin the screen, or how to enter recovery mode in this watch or any other solution I wiill really appreciate it!!! Thanks.

I just bought the Zeblaze Thor 4. I am located in the USA. I purchased a SIM card from speedtalkmobile.com which is on the T-Mobile network. I have configured the Watch according to the APN settings that the SIM card provider sent me and it still does not work for 3G/4G data. I inserted the SIM card into an unlocked Android phone and edited the APN settings in the phone and it worked just fine.
What should I do to get the 3G and 4G Data working on the Zeblaze Thor 4 smartwatch? Thanks much for your help!

Olá, comprei um Zeblaze Thor 4. Estou carregando a bateria do celular mas ele não liga mais. Aparece apenas a tela com as opções "Restart", "reboot" , e mesmo apertando estas opções, ele apenas liga a tela com o logo da Zeblaze e depois não liga a tela. Mesmo apertando o botão power só aparece as opções que citei acima. Como proceder isso? E há como fazer o start reset?

Zeblaze Thor4 Connect with Laptop
Hello, does anybody know how to connect with laptop and data transfer using data/charging cable?

I find this hard to believe. Can you tell me: 1) did you choose 4G as preferred? Enhanced LTE mode? fast.t-mobile.com as APN? and "TMobile 4G' as the network operator?

Camoway., I've tried everything. Can you please confirm your settings here? I've even added a dupe APN for 4G non-LTE and the watch will not let me select it (or anything else save the "fast.t-mobile.com") (when I try to select the APN, it takes me to the editor).
