Browsers & APNs - Bravo General

Hey today I finally looked around and fixed my no browser over 3G issue. I had to delete the proxy and port, just wanted to share and see if this will work for anyone else having this problem. Also kinda wandering why I had to do so or if this will have any effects

Maybe you just accidentally enabled proxy while messing around with the settings? Its not on by default. You shouldn't have any negative side effects from disabling it.

[Q] Apps not compatible with Atrix? Problem with ro.build.fingerprint?

Hi,
I am running CM7 on my Atrix and recently I realised a lot of apps cannot be updated/downloaded onto my Atrix as it says they are incompatible, even Facebook for Android, which apparently has an update today.
I suspect it is the fingerprint... Mine is below:
ro.build.fingerprint=MOTO/olyatt/olympus:2.3.4/4.5.91/110625:user/release-keys
Is that right or can someone share with me what is their fingerprint?
Or what else could be wrong?
Thanks!
If you are using chainfire3d, change the settings back to the settings of Atrix4G and you should be fine. Otherwise, I don't know what problem you could be having.

Just use your phones web browser instead of the market app, not a fix but will get your apps to your Atrix

Oh I realised it was because of the LCD Density.. I just had to revert to 240 and all the apps work again. Thanks

T mobile blocked tethering??

So I have had tehtering for as long as i have had t mobile and all of a sudden today they blocked it. now what?? is it just gone or is there a way to work around it??? my phone is rooted thanks
I haven't tried tethering today but I would think if you're rooted then you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Most roms come preinstalled with tethering apps and you can download them.
They CAN block it on a rooted device if they notice. Not much you can do about it.

Can they block pdanet? Bluetooth or USB tehter?

Same question for me. I use tethering sparingly, but just got blocked today. I'm fully rooted and on cm7 rc3, using the native tethering from cm7 - and this no longer works.
So are there any 3rd party apps that will bypass the block? I tried barnacle and wifi tether for root users, but couldn't seem to get either to even connect to the computer correctly.

I found a solution that works for me anyway. Not sure if I'm supposed to post that kind of info here, but feel free to PM me and I can share if anyone has this same problem (again, not sure my solution would work for everyone).

A quick and dirty fix that works in a pinch for t-mobile is to create a new APN and make it epc.tmobile.com, then switch to it. I tried it the other day after they started sending me to that site where they tell you to add tethering to your plan. It worked.

Does that mean T-Mobile is using a new APN? I'm only asking because I use epc.tmobile.com all the time after flashing a new ROM.

No. For some reason that seems to temporarily confuse their system into letting you tether.

Gallery issue?

Hi guys, I've been searching the Web for a while now for this problem and I hope I'm not the only one with it. But since yesterday when I'm on gallery the preview at the bottom of the screen doesn't disappear! If you play a video the play buttons don't go anywhere either. Is there anyone else with this issue?

Yep, same here. I was about to make a thread for it, but found yours. The preview at the bottom, and toolbar at the top NEVER disappear, no matter what I've tried. Also, when making photo selections, a woman's voice tells me that the "check box is checked" I can't find that setting anywhere either. Super annoying.
What the deuce?
Haha even restarts don't help =/ and yeah the woman is hilarious but creepy! I would love to ask Samsung but would have no idea where to start!

I was having this exact same problem and finally figured out what was causing it, at least for me. I installed NoLED and turned it on under accessibility. I didn't realize the connection at the time but then I noticed that the top and bottom overlays in the gallery wouldn't go away. I also got the freaky voice, even when opening websites. Somehow I correlated the issue as to having started after I installed NoLED. After I uninstalled it my gallery sent back to normal. It was either an issue with the app or having given it access under accessibility. Hope this helps.

Gallery works fine on my S4. I have several 100 pictures on it in lots of different folders, and it works great for all of them. Video playback is fine too, FWIW.

Well I've had lightflow installed since day one... So I didn't even uninstall it, just turned it off in accessibility. Yup, gallery is fine now. Odd glitch.

it's not just lightflow, it's for every app that you activate in the accessibility menu
strange
That is pretty weird. Should of known it was light flow! Is there any way to report this to Samsung? At least we have found the fix. Thank you guys a lot!

This is possibly due to incorrect APN settings on your phone. You should be able to look up the APN settings for your carrier and check in your phone to see if they are set up correctly. Also, are you using the stock messaging app or something else from the Play Store? Some other messaging apps, such as GO SMS Pro, may require the APN settings to be set up in the app too, not just in the phone settings.

Are you on at&t? If so, I sometimes have issues with MMS when connected to a microcell. I also noticed too, that on at&t branded phones there is an extra MMS port option that's not present on AOSP/vanilla ROMs. That too may be part of the issue. All assuming you're on at&t.

You might find this link helpful. http://blog.012.net/2012/06/apn-012mobile/
From what I could tell after translating the page to English, this should help you check your APN settings on your phone. Read the section for Android devices with version 4 and verify these settings are set properly on your phone. Let us know how it goes.

Anyone have issues with Adblock Plus with MMS?

Anyone have issues with Adblock Plus with MMS? Seems adblock is the issue. Every time I uninstall it mms starts to work again.
Anyone else having this issue? Do I need to white list Cingular urls? (It's rooted)

I had adblock plus and mms would not work. I dont have adblock plus now and my mms works. Thank you for the idea, it worked!!
