[ZIP]Orange UK ICS signal boost! - Galaxy S III General

alcurtis93 said:
I thought i would create a new CMW flashable zip for people on orange uk moving to Custom Roms, or even those who are on generic firmware but don't have this capibilty.
It basically enables Signal boost technology (UMA) for Galaxy S devices when in low signal areas.
This CMW zip works perfectly. This zip is tried and tested on most roms
However Give me and others feedback on if this works for you on other Rom's.
Remember this is Orange Network only!
Find the zip attached.
Just flash in recovery.

Didn't work when posted in s1 forum, hoping it will when my s3 arrives.

Wow - this should be excellent! I was disappointed it wasn't compatible with signal boost out of the box!!
Has anyone tried this on an S3 yet?

This if it doesn't work can be tweaked to work. I shall be getting the s3 soon and so will have a play. But if people can try it that would be great

I would try but sadly on o2. Not complaining though signal is fantastic but the want for more is still there

Can anyone confirm if this works on the S3? Bought this S3 today after being told instore that it features the Signal Boost software only to get it home and find out I had been lied to . Signal at home is terrible. So I'll have to take the phone back if I can't get this sorted.

I have just flashed this onto my S3 however no signal boost appears to have been installed. Unless I have done something wrong then I can confirm that it does not work for the S3.

Ok, so I have managed to install the app by extracting the package and installing the apk. However when I open the signal boost app it immediately force closes.

If you could extract the apk and put it in /system/app
Extract the lib files and put them in /system/lib and then extract the .prop file and put it in /system and then let me know.

Ok. I'll try that now mate. I presume that you have the app fully working? I'd be ovr the moon.

Ok, so I've managed to get the app installed and openable. I have enabled signal boost and I have the orange house icon in the top left of the screen however I am unable to make calls when I have no mobile network coverage. It seems that the app isn't correctly routing the calls.

Just to warn you, this app causes crazy wake locks and ruins of battery life, only use it if you really need to!

I'm getting somewhere now. I can now get the green house icon to turn green which gives me a "signal boost". Great for texting, however when I make or receive a call the signal and or app just drops leaving me with no signal. It then restarts after about a minute and goes green again. Any suggestions?

Bump i would like to use this, or is there a orange stock rom with it on?

I look forward to you starting work on it mate. It is very strange indeed. When making or receiving calls then app just crashes and restarts.

My hope is that orange soon release a version with signal boost in so that I don't have to start writing code and can just tear the files straight out. Fingers crossed

[Q] signal weirdness

Ever since installing android I've been having signal issues. Sometimes ill just lose signal for like. 30seconds then it will all be fine. Or other times ill have full bars 3G but yet the notification bar and lockscreen say no service and because it says no service my cell stand by is height battery even though there's signal. And this happened on different Roms and I have the latest radio.
What can I do?
This is a known issue. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like it's a big deal to the developers. I've seen a couple threads posted here in the general section about it but have never seen anything where a dev has addressed the problem. Who knows, maybe they are just working on it behind the scenes.

Well, i used 2 have such issues before so here's what i did....Upgraded to d latest radio & then went into Settings > Mobile networks, i then changed network connection from "Auto" to "GSM only"...That stabilized my network, i still get great data speeds so i'm gud....
Most times its not a problem of the build, its more lyk your location (cell towers) and the phone trying to give you a better network by switching between GSM & WCDMA connections...
P.S. Try using GSM or WCDMA only mode n see which works best for you.
Wow that also worked i put my connection to run 2g and wifi and it shot me straight up to 4 bars

You know that signal bar shows 3.5g>3g>2g? So if you choose auto it shows 3.5g first, if ever possible, then so on and so forth. So even if you have 4bars 2g then 1bar 3g, it will show 1bar on the signal bar.

Fast dormancy disable works on note 2

Hi all just thought id share, and let everyone know that the app in the market made by gokhanmoral does work on the note2, mine being the N7100 so all credits go to him for his work :good:
no need to change build.prop if your unsure how, his app does work on the note 2

More stable data connection and better battery life.
Just a note for those having the sqlite write error. You are likely using the perseus kernel. For some reason the database has a different group when using perseus. You can just add r/w to 'other' to get around the issue (the permissions reset on reboot).
Another note, the program specified above doesn't always detect the correct current network (aka, mine is 31000 and it detected 31100), and so the sqlite rows entered don't always work.
Final note: Disabling FD isn't usually a good thing. Be very sure the network you are on doesn't support FD, in any of its forms, else you will get slow connect times and much worse battery life by having it disabled.

Andy clue how to make it work in Perseus Kernel?
Not work with RedPill kernel.
Sent from my GT-N7100
The first thing everyone should be doing is checking if their networks supports FD or not, and if they do then you should leave it alone.
I know O2 in the UK do not support it, which is why I wanted to disable it.
This is how I got it working:
-Flash ROM / kernel via recovery
-Open Galaxy Note Toolbox (link in Dev section)
-Choose option to root and install busybox
-Run FD app
For me this worked on Perseus and RedPill, tested with ARHD, however others users have reported that it didn't work for them.
I'm actually on Omega at the moment and had forgotten to do this so my FD app is currently giving me the SQL error. I'll fix it later though, at work right now

Didn't there use to be a special code you could type into your phone to enable a secret menu that would then let you switch fast dormancy off? I remember doing this to an old smartphone a couple of years ago.

I am having a slight problem with the forum. I can't seem to stay logged in all the time, even if the box is ticked. From time to time I must reenter my credentials, and that is a [first world problem] I know but is there something others has experienced or is it just me?
On the side note, this occurs in latest stable Chrome, latest dev build chrome, as well as latest stable FireFox.
I never click the link to log out, I just close the tab/window. And it appears to be quite random too, that I must reenter my credentials.

Also, maybe it's just me, but I have to say that, for all of the cries from people for JB, I've really not noticed much of a difference since the update.

It isn't as though I had any problems with the tablet before, except for some occasional lag, but, except for the icons and some minor cosmetic changes, I haven't noticed anything to distinguish it from ICS.
Of course, I'm grateful that they're at least updating it. Especially since there would be so many people crying if they didn't.
Maybe I'm too oblivious to notice the changes.

The way I see it, the mobile data radio button was most handy so that I could make sure I was not using my data plan when WiFi was on. I preferred having this feature, and I have noticed a difference in the past when I thought I was using WiFi only to learn I wasn't. Maybe you don't think it was useful, but I certainly found it to be very much so. Now I have to drill down into the settings to manually turn off mobile data instead, which is a pain.
Besides, airplane mode usually shuts off Bluetooth, GPS, mobile data, and WiFi, or at least it has on nearly every device I've ever owned. In other words, from a practical standpoint: baby with the bathwater.

I guess you are right. Airplane mode does shut off way too much. How about adding a data toggle from the Play Store?

Shouldn't have to, that button was a perfect solution, I wish I knew why it was removed, there really was no need for it to go.
Oh well.

Works for me but only when I am in bright light and have the tab perpendicular to my face for it to pick up my eyes.

It's been working for me just fine, no matter what angle I have the tablet at, and I wear glasses.

Any chance someone with this Rom and Root could extract and post the AllAccess APK?
Should be in /system/app/
I highly recommend a hard reset after updating to 4.1.
I didn't the first time and it was super laggy and buggy. After formating, it's smooth now.

[Q] Every Single ROM I Flash, Data (3g) DOESN'T work.

Every single AOSP ROM I have tried to flash, 3g does not work. On every single one.
What am I doing wrong? I've tried probably 5 ROMs..
I'm just really frustrated with myself and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, so finally I have decided to make a post!

Did you try changing your network mode? I have had issues with 3g before and changing network mode fixed my problem. Also once you DL the roms you are having problems with have you looked at about device to see if you have a baseband /software version?

also make sure network info in there
When you say 3g doesn't work, do you mean that you're phone's status bar never shows 3g service or does it show 3g with a signal bar or two and you can't pull any data services over it. If it shows 3g with no actual data services run the ookla speedtest.net app and let us know what the results of that are.
