Skype KJAM version

Hi,
After I install the kjam version of skype on my xda i recieve a message saying this model isnt supported and it will disable the skype sound engine.
I assume its something to do with a vendor id or some similar check. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks

Skype beta nightmares
Deinstall it and have a happier life.
There are versions that work on the Wizard. Some people can run the normal version others have to run the low cpu version. I tried both and whilst they worked, I was unhappy about it running itself in background all the time and deinstalled it. Then I got loads of errors because it was still there under the covers.
I finally managed to hack it all out, but it has put me off Skype on the PDA. At least until it gets past the beta stage.
I'm a big fan of VoIP and Skype are the biggest. Not sure I like them though.
Just my experience.

MB Bluetooth - cannot answer call

I have successfully connected HD2 to the bluetooth feature in my MB C200. I can dial and make calls, even decline calls but cannot always answer calls by pressing the "answer" call in the car console. The phone just keeps ringing. It only works like 1 in 10 times. It is like the Bluetooth signal from the car is not been recognised by HD2.
I have tried most of the registry tweak suggested in this forum but it didn’t help. I use the Telstra model and have recently upgraded to the latest ROM but still no difference. Anyone else has this problem?
ROM: 1.72.841.0 (82124)
Radio: 2.07.51.22_2

did you check the option in the phone settings to allow the phone call to be accepted by the bluetooth?

Where is this option exactly? Can't seems to find it in the Personal->Phone settings.

Hi !
I've the exact same problem and I'm going nuts as I miss a lot of professional calls.
Does anyone find a solution ?
Never had any issues with my old good HD.
Hope it can be fixed.
BR

Nobody ?
I've tried the allow connection, but that doesn't helps at all.
Hope for a solution soon, otherwise the HD2 will go to trash right away.
Msg to HTC :
TEST YOUR PHONES ! and employ good developers and testers.
Too many bugs and non practical things with your devices.

GrooVe Ip fixes wifi sleep

Hi all, been following the dell streak forums here for quite a while. I've found something I thought was worth contributing in regards to fixing the wifi sleep that a lot of us have. The solution for me was the "High Perf Wifi Lock" found in the GrooVe IP app. It's in settings->troubleshooting. After turning it on I have had no problems with the wifi sleeping while screen off. It's been a week so far and still working great! This has never been the case with any of my previous attempts to remedy this problem. Downside is the app needs to be left running, so I would turn it on only when I need stable wifi as to avoid any battery drain. Hope this helps some. Truly sorry if this method was already attempted. Did a search before posting but didn't find anything, unless I don't know how to use the search function. Also, just want to say thanks for everyones hard work and dedicated support for this device!
DSC ROM 0.71
GAUSB1A140614-US
2.6.35.14-DSC-Team-Phoenix
*UPDATE*
Sad to announce I experienced my first wifi hang today. I noticed the GV app will intermittently sign off and on even when the wifi is stable. So I guess this is just another alternative to other wifi locks/fixers out there.
To those who've been testing, how has your experience been?

problem is already solved, just update your Rom to the latest version DSC 1.4

Thanks for the update. Reason I haven't upgraded from .71 is that everything is working fine and the speed is good enough for me. I've tried several versions up until the 1. release but experienced unexpected instability. Everyone's mileage is different so, like the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". I'll update eventually as the streak becomes obsolete. I plan on keeping this device even when I move on to another for use as a daily driver. Nonetheless, thanks to everyone on the DSC team and all contributors for making this device what it was meant to be and better.

Still using MIUI 2.4.... Best rom in my opinion until a stable V4 MIUI comes out. I've always hoped someone out there used Groove IP. I knew Groove IP had the wifi fix but for some reason I wad using another app to keep the wifi awake.
Anyway what are your settings on the streak for Groove IP? The mic implementation causes a bad echo no matter what settings you use which is probably going to be my main reason for jumping ship to the note.
If you enable echo cancellation- the other party won't hear you because your voice will cut out.

any android which is above 2.3.3 will always have problem with voip... and audio routing not working at all... it just uses main speaker although we select the in-ear speaker...
only dsc does not have that kind of problem... and it is confirmed working...

Hey, yea the GV app work fine for me and I didn't fidget with audio settings at all. Perhaps the problem for you is as Deysmacro stated.

just posted an update, looks like I might have to do an update sooner than I had previously mentioned. Just when things were going so well....this device sure demands a lot of attention. It wouldn't be fun if it were easy but does it have to be this much fun?

Okay I tried using Groove IP's high perf wifi lock but that doesn't work. Wifi still turns off if the screen is off. There was a bug with wifi that Hpa fixed by making the wifi stay on no matter what your settings at a cost of battery drain.
Anyway I'm back to using advanced wifi lock to keep the wifi on.
No way does Groove IP work fine out of the box. You have to have the setting for the screen to be on during calls or else it will start dropping packets. I found that audio processing had to be on. Mic source had to he set to android default. Supposedly voip has better implementation versions after gingerbread. I have to use the basic echo canceller with 400-600ms tail and I use the large setting for mic buffer.
Streak has an issue where the audio routing will sometimes go through the main speaker-causing you to toggle the speaker phone button on and off at the beginning of a call. I had to go through all this just for free calls... its still not perfect and if the other caller is in a loud area with background noise-my echo canceler will cut out my voice completely.
If anyone has better settings let me know.

If you guys want a working voip such as skype.. just use dsc 1.0.. it is working as of this posting and audio routing works also..

I personally have used Skype since I got this mobile, and used DSC never had any problem with voip, so it must be something else wrong with you. currently using DSC 1.4 works very ok for me.

defy, cm10 and isyncr wifi

anyone else use this combo ? isyncr works on the phone via usb cable, cant get the wifi version to work. any tips ?

Yep
Having the same problem with CM10 and iSyncr. Only works over USB cable, not over wifi. Had the same problem in CM9. iSyncr Wifi hasn't worked since CM7. If anyone has a solution I would be grateful.

Moved to Q&A. Please post all questions there.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

I'm having the same issue. After exchanging a couple of emails with their support the problem continues unresolved (and with no clue onto how) even in their latest version
I managed to sync via wifi (pc version) once every few dozen tries, but my last successful attempt was almost a month ago

RUnning CM jellybean and I can't get it to work via wifi or USB - really kind of annoying. and thier tech support is non existant. no matter stock rom or any other rom, nothing works.

After more emails exchanged with one of the devs, I made a lot of tests (trying do get the app to work on a number of combinations of ROMs/OS and and detailed it to them. If this will ever make the app work properly I can only hope
On a possibly related issue, anyone here that reposted this problem with isyncr also have a bug were the wifi disconnects after every few Mbs downloaded (either via file download, app updates, normal navigation, youtube, etc) and the wifi icon is still displayed as if it was connected, and mobile network doesn't kick in if it was turned on beforehand?
Because this is also a wifi related bug that a only very few users reported on the CM and MIUI JB threads. Could it be a bug in a specific stock ROM kernel used as base? What SBF file did you flash (or where is your phone from, in case you didn't flash a Different SBF)? My had a Brazilian retail SBF

Don't hold your breath, I went through this exercise over a 3 week period for the developers to just tell me there was nothing they could do about it, so I gave up using this product altogether.

did this ever get resolved ? still doesnt appear to work for me

Nope. As far as I managed to communicate with developers, they couldn't figure it out, and CM10 users seem not do stumble upon this bug (plus an uncommon combination of Device+ROM+app) very often, so it's a bug that gets no attention

iSyncr is working with latest CM10! I don't know for how many builds since it's been a while I last tried to use it, but I can sync music via wifi now

About "robotic voice issue"

Hey all,
some of us suffer from the robotic voice issue and the discussion in the dev forums gets out of control, so I decided to open an own thread for this topic.
I hope this will reduce the off-topic talk in the ROM threads (which is against xda rules by the way ). Also this will maybe help the devs to find a solution eventually as they dont have to search through the 500pages in the dev forum to find any useful comments on the topic.
Further I would like to share how to live with the problem
For many users this issue is a dealbreaker for using a ROM. I personally adapted to it as those ROMs/builds without the issue are extremely poor when it comes to performance and especially battery life for me. The current version of the device tree massively improves those too aspects at cost of bringing the robotic voice issue, which is good so, as the issue only affects a few and it can be easily worked-around.
What you can do to work-around the issue:
turn network mode to 2G
Go to Settings => Cellular networks => Preferred network type => 2G
Of course this means that your mobile internet will be way slower. All background service will run without any problems. Only when you for example stream music or videos online or maybe want to use the browser (in fact, therefore it wouldnt even really be necessary) you would have to switch to 3G/4G.
I have the robotic voice issue on every outgoing call when on 3G/4G and never had the problem on 2G. So this is a very stable workaround :good:
Also I have found an app called "Toggle Network Type 5.0" PlayStore - xda
It requires root but using a custom ROM that shouldnt be a deal-breaker. With this app, you can create an widget that toggles between network modes that you can select. So for example to toggle between 2G and 3G/4G
That means it is only one tap on a widget from ready to take a call to highspeed mobile internet :fingers-crossed:
use dual-boot
I'mTheMr released a dualboot app for our device G800F xda-thread. I am using it quite a while now and never had any problems with it. The ROMs are installed to internal storage. Having a device with 12gb internal storage this is absolutely no problem. You can access files, photos etc. from all ROMs.
So you have one ROM (works with rooted stock ROM as well!!!) that you can rely on, say your work partition and when you want to use a custom ROM with all its fancy features and the robotic voice issue is atm no deal-breaker you just choose your secondary in the app and reboot =)
I really hope that one of the devs will take a deeper look into that issue sooner or later. I can put up with it, but getting rid of this problem once and for all would of course be way nicer.
What we know about the issue (or think to know :silly: ):
As I said before it is connected to the latest changes in the device tree by hennymcc, which switched the phone libs. Considering that it doesnt appear on 2G, one can assume that it is the part that controls the mobile data / voLTE. That also means that basically every new ROM has the same bug because they all share hennymcc's device tree.
The ROMs that have the robotic voice issue are:
CM 13 (there are builds that dont have it, but I am speaking of the latest build)
Resurrection Remix
Tesla
PAC-ROM 5
ROMs that dont have the robotic voice issue:
Bliss ROM (latest build used the older version of device tree)
CM 12.1
I have this issue with every outgoing call others only calling specific numbers/providers and most of the users dont have the problem at all. So, it could be related to the provider one uses or more precisely the frequencies your provider uses.
And thats about all information I can provide to the topic. Feel free to add things that I forgot to mention or just dont know and when someone wants to have any specific logs just tell what you need and I am sure there will come a lot then I will of course add a call log with and without robotic voice (2g/3g) but probably not today.
PS: Please excuse the noob language used here and there, I am obviously no dev :angel:
