For Impulse/u8800-51 users: an experiment

Well, here I am again, trying to make 3g work on our u8800-51 with u8800pro roms.
I did a little experiment and I have some results.. But I need some help.
First, I extracted Froyo 2.2.2 stock rom files from u8800pro.
Then, I extracted Froyo 2.2.2 stock rom files from u8800-51 (Impulse 4g)
What I did next is interesting. I knew that the only differences between this models are the CPU and the bands / frequencies for 3g (1900 on Impulse and 2100 on u8800pro). So, I downloaded a "duplicate file finder", to delete only 100% equal files between both rom files (more specific, in system folder), so I would know where is the band information located.
Here are my results:
Files that are different (and have a different version of same file in u8800pro gingerbread):
Code:
system/bin/debuggerd
system/bin/netd
system/bin/wpa_supplicant
------------------------
system/etc/security/otacerts.zip
-----------------------------
system/framework/ <---- *many in this folder.. anything to do with 3g?
-----------------------------
system/lib/libaudioflinger.so
system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
system/lib/libmedia.so
system/lib/liboemcamera.so
system/lib/libril-qc-1.so <--- *Now we know this is the important in ril libs
system/lib/libskia.so
------------------------
system/xbin/busybox <---- this is a file
system/xbin/su <---- this is a file
These are the files that changed in system folder.
Please, If anyone knows about these files, please let me know. I need to discard files that are not related to 3g.. but please only if you are sure.
I wasnt able to exctract amss.mbn and EMMCBOOT.MBN from stock roms (update.app file), so I dont know if they changed too. Anyone knows how to?
Help is appreciated.

It was just title comparison or content comparison too?
Can you post the full file tree?
Now, how do we proceed? I mean, if we try to use libril from u8800pro, the phone won't boot... and we *know* there's something going on there.
I'm not sure what the framework folder holds... maybe someone could tell us?

It checked if the file content were 100% equal. I replaced my libril-qc-1 with the one from the u8800-51 froyo, and it booted, but still no 3g..

I think for best results and more accurate results, best option should be do a mass md5 checksum on all files (might take a while) and remove all the files with same md5. This is more accurate because even if ONE BIT is different in a file (which might make a difference in drivers) md5 will be different.

I don't know if you got it to work, but I did. I installed "APN Backup & Restore", then I backed up the APNs, deleted all of the Chile (Entel) APNs, did a search for USA APNs, edited the file (mine was 'apns-20110624003803.xml') with the correct info (for USA it happened to be):
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="4">
<apn name="att us" numeric="310410" mcc="310" mnc="410" apn="wap.cingular" user="" server="" password="" proxy="wireless.cingular.com" port="80" mmsproxy="" mmsport="" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="" type="default, supl, agps, fota, us, dun" />
<apn name="att us hsdpa" numeric="310410" mcc="310" mnc="410" apn="phone" user="" server="" password="" proxy="" port="" mmsproxy="" mmsport="" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="" type="default, supl, agps, fota, dun" />

</apns>
Then Rebooted my phone. Data worked after that. (I might have missed a step. My phone is bricked now because I played with it too much, so I can't go back and look.
Hopefully this tells someone something

I did a md5 check on all files, eliminating duplicated ones, and I got no differences from the previous check, but was a good idea man, thank you.

I will try to do this. I had read about leaving just the apn you need, so i will try that. thanks.
Any other ideas??

I have a rooted Impulse on stock froyo. I use a Samsung Infuse as my daily driver so I haven't done much with the Impulse. Is there anything I can help out with?

Data works, the issue here is 2g vs 3g HSPA+

Yes please!
two things:
Can you replace your libril-qc-1.so file for the one attached (its from u8800pro froyo) and check if your 3g still works? (remember to backup yours).
In another test, can you replace the image file (volume + - power) amss.mbn and tell me if your mobile phone boots and if it has any changes in 3G or 2G?
I cant upload more than 8mb here, so I uploaded the amss.mbn file here:
Code:

Thank you very much!

Not sure about 2g or 3g but HSPA+ is still working. I'm not sure where i can get only 3G in my area but I'll keep checking.
And your media fire link went down so I couldn't test that.

Could you upload the u8800-51 rom? Lots of us experimented with gingerbread, no At&T network wifi or bluetooth. So we all need to revert to the stock rom. it would be awsome.

It didnt fixed the problem as it was only a CWM recovery.. i am sorry..

Wrong MNC in apns-conf.xml

Hi,
I would have posted this in the development forum, but due to silly forum rules I cannot.
I found that the MNC for Telenet in Belgium (MCC=206) in apns-conf.xml is incorrect. They used to use MNC=10 which is the code for Mobistar, as Telenet was a MVNO.
But they got a license for building out there own network, and as the first step last year everyone got a new SIM which instead uses MNC=05
Can one of the developers update this?
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_vendor_cm/blob/ics/prebuilt/common/etc/apns-conf.xml
Here you can find the WAP and MMS settings, unfortunately the page is in Dutch, but the settings should be pretty straight forward. Or alternatively just use google translate..
http://klantenservice.telenet.be/content/hoe-stel-ik-mijn-gsm-manueel-voor-wap-en-mms-0

To add some more information, I think this line in apns-conf.xml
Code:
<apn carrier="Telenet" mcc="206" mnc="10" apn="telenetwap.be" type="default,supl" />
Should be changed to;
Code:
<apn carrier="Telenet" mcc="206" mnc="05" apn="telenetwap.be" type="default,supl" />
In addition, adding a line for MMS may not be a bad idea either;
Code:
<apn carrier="Telenet MMS" mcc="206" mnc="05" apn="mms.be" mmsc="http://mmsc.telenet.be" mmsproxy="195.130.149.100" mmsport="80" type="mms" />

[08.09.12] Credo Mobile APN for enabling MMS for Sprint Mobile ROMS (universal v1.0)

Here is a little something back to the community in my thanks for all the work I see throughout these forums. It is not much, but it is something.
I have not found a detailed thread regarding the APN's for Credo Mobile yet so I figured I would post one up.
Special thanks to w4ffl3 and shokod at Androidcentral posting up their original APNs and configs. I tweaked the APN myself to make it work properly with my device. I hope it works for you too!
This should work for any Credo Mobile Android phone, however it has not been tested on all of their devices. If you have a device and found this useful (or not), please reply your experiences. And of course, any and all feedback welcomed.
Note to ICS/JB users: I am sorry to say but the APN switch only works with Gingerbread based operating systems and lower. There is no way in changing the APN unless a community member figures out how to make an app to change the APNs in ICS/JellyBean.
As with any alteration you make: I host no responsibility if you need to reinstall your ROM or brick your phone or lose any other capability. Use at you rown risk.
Now:::
1) Install APN Backup & Restore from the Google Play Market
2) Download and unzip the Credo-apn.xml from the download link below from this post.
3) Mount your Android mobile device to your computer; at the root of the sdcard, create a folder called "ApnBackupRestore".
4) put the Credo-APN.xml file in the newly created folder and unmount the device.
5) Run APN Backup & Restore,
6) Backup your current APN settings
7) Delete APNs
8) Restore APN and select "Credo-apn.xml"
MMS Now works for Credo mobile!! Enjoy
Code:
Here is the nitty gritty for those tech savvy:
Three APNs total:
apn name="Production"
numeric="00000"
mcc="310"
mnc="120"
apn="Sprint" (note: this is simply the Name, I am sure you can change it to Credo if you really wanted to, but I stuck with what worked)

Thanks for providing this for us. They are now out of date. I am working on getting it updated for everyone out there.

Ok, many ROMs do not come with the correct APNs for 3rd party Sprint Network users. You have to remove the default APNs and then add the latest Preferred Roaming List. Also known as the Access Point Name (APN).
Here is the file with the new Credo Mobile APNs for any ROM that can't connect to LTE or to Sprint's servers to get MMS messages.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7es3vh5c67jdqwh/apns-credo.xml
This xml file is structured to be used with the app "APN Backup & Restore" .
Make sure the APN app is moved to the system folder. I used "/system/app mover" to do this.
Below is the code to the XML file.
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="4">
<apn name="APN0 LTE ota" numeric="310000" mcc="310" mnc="000" apn="otasn" user="" server="" password="" proxy="" port="" mmsproxy="" mmsport="" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="" type="fota" />

</apns>
UPDATE: This list of APNs provide 3G, 4G LTE EVDO, and 2G CDMA but NOT MMS support. I don't know why. I am looking into updating my code.

I'm on Credo Mobile too, and I have MMS working on mine. In addition to the above APNs, I have a fifth one. APN Backup & Restore does not work on 4.4 though (EDIT: I didn't try making it a system app, so actually it probably would work then... but in any case, I suppose that isn't the most pertinent info here), so I will just enumerate the values I have in the regular APN config menu:
Name: Sprint
APN: Sprint
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Sprint
Password: *
Server: *
MMSC: http://mms.plspictures.com
MMS Proxy: 68.28.31.7
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 120
Authentication Type: PAP or CHAP
APN type: mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO type: None
MVNO Value: Not Set
As an interesting side note, I didn't change the MMSC address in the LTE or EHRPD APNs to http://mms.plspictures.com so they still say http://mms.sprintpcs.com, however my MMS still works fine so far.

Ok, managed to get APN Backup & Restore working on mine... I'm kinda new to 4.4, so I didn't know about privileged apps ( put the apk in /system/priv-app/ instead of /system/app/, it'll work just fine despite the warning saying it won't )... Anyway, here is the xml from my current APN config (minus the extra 1608 catch-all APNs from cyanogenmod's config file, of course):
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="5">
<apn name="Sprint" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="Sprint" user="Sprint" server="*" password="*" proxy="" port="" mmsproxy="68.28.31.7" mmsport="80" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mms.plspictures.com" type="mms" />

</apns>
I make no guarantees that this will work as I've not had any chance to test it while on 3G or LTE networks yet. It works when I'm connected to WiFi so far though. If I figure anything more out about this, I will certainly post anything I discover. Also, I'm sure it couldn't hurt to change the mmsc in all of them to say http://mms.plspictures.com just to cover your bases. I'm going to leave mine this way for now, for testing on 3G and LTE.

[Q]Help for simple digital clock widget

Hi,
I am triying to build a simple numeric clock widget but i have some issues :
-The widget isn't appearing in widget section of 4.0+ launchers
-The time is not refresh (but i set up refresh value to 1000ms)
-Widget dosn't respect the size i set in the xml
Code:
android:minWidth="294dp"
android:minHeight="72dp"
android:updatePeriodMillis="1000"
If someone can help me, would be awesome
See app sources here
I'm sorry if i am in the wrong place

you should add this in the manifest:
Code:
<receiver android:name=".WidgetProvider" android:label="yourAppName">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/widget_info" />
</receiver>
then create the meta-data file (widget_info):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:minWidth="294dp"
android:minHeight="72dp"
android:updatePeriodMillis="1000"
android:initialLayout="@layout/widget">
</appwidget-provider>
ok, you did it... i didn't view the source

Thanks but done

I think that the update intervall needs to be 30 minutes or more.
You could create a service and refresh the widget from that.
---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------
And you need to start your app at least once on Android 4+. Then it will be shown in the app drawer.
So create a launcher activity.
