Whats your opinion? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Im still running the froyo build from DFT but there are some problems, 3g doesn't work, WiFi works only after maybe 10 minutes then needs to re-activate WiFi, and calling sometimes does not work. It makes connection but the sound is distorting.
So. I'm looking for a Rom that only runs from my phone. No sense required. And hopeing that my 3 issues are resolved in this Rom.
I'm only running what'sapp, I surf a little and a couple of maybe 1mb apps, that's it basicly, so not much app data needed.
I'm hopeing there is a android 4.0 or higher Rom out there but 3.5 is really the minimum.
What Rom would you guys advise.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Whats tour opinion?
NexusHD2 ICS, NexusHD2 Jelly Bean. Both ROMs are very fast and stable.

You can change the title yourself, just go to edit in the OP then advanced or something like that. As for ROMs, just pick one above ICS and flash it, you're probably going to like it.

Hi i installed nexushd2 ics and it works better then the froyo build
But the 3g is still not working. Im on vodafone network. Everything else seems to work fine. I installed it useing the nand install for leo 1024. It worked though.
Any idea what i would be doing wrong ?
Thnx guys

Do you have the APN set?

Could you explain what that should be ?

I don't know the exact path but it goes something like this:
Settings > Network > Mobile Network > Access Point Names
If you see an empty screen, you don't have any APN set and you need to set up one by pressing the menu button > New APN.
A search could have possibly brought up the same thing.

Oh that, i thought there was something with the installation of my phone or something So many abbreviations i somethings go coocook xD
Well i checked and i set up the same APN as my One X, Same settings. Still no 3g

Is it like, there is no data at all or you are just getting edge?

No data at all. No internet icon whatsoever except antenna (gsm) and WiFi (if enabled)

Solved,
Turns out my ISP Blocked the internet for some reason. But the subscription I had included a data package. So why sell a data package but block it.
Funk for the support cause I still needed to setup the internet. So I checked the things you guys told me to.
Thnx

[Q] Wifi keeps "timing out." Why?

I have a very strange problem with my wifi. Whenever I use a CM6 build, my wifi alot of times will say "operation timed out" when using the internet or xda app. I have no problems at all in Sense builds. That's the weird part. I have full wifi signal, right apn's and right dns settings. I can't for the life of me figure this out. Very frustrating. Have been dealing with this for the longest time. Has anybody else experienced this, or know of a solution to fix this?

hi mattfmartin,
try maybe define a static ip address to your wifi .
i cant really think about any logical reason for that.
hope it helps.
good luck
All cm6 builds?

Yeah anything that isn't Sense it happens to. Its not a reception issue either. The wifi icon is full bars. Believe me, I've tried all build just to see. They all say after I try to load a new page "operation timed out".
I have this too. Whats your router?

Norpan it didn't get deleted. I opened up two threads. One in android general, the other is in Q&A because I wasn't getting amy replies from the other one. Do you have any suggestions my friend. I've even tried static ip with no luck. To answer your original question, it only happens to me in Non Sense builds.
Come one, come all. Hit this thread up
Dlink, but also a Linksys. It only happens to me on non sense builds. XDA etc stalls and needs a retry often... on the sense builds I've tried I have no problems.
Exact same with me. Especially using the XDA app. You would think alot more people would have thus problem.

Sorry for not replying as fast, is there any difference on how they handle networking sense/no sense? Sounds wierd :s does it time out on sleep only or when you are using it aswell?

I get that issue to now when i think about it. Sometimes mainly xda app keeps timing out on me..could it be non-sense builds keep accessing some port blocked by our router?

Yeah on sense it never times out. Just on nonsense builds. Also it times out when I'm using it. Don't know what its doing in sleep. My brother has a native android, and his never does this. Were using the same router. Been dealing with this for the longest time. Even tried static ip, changing dns values. Usually I can figure stuff out on my own, but this one I can't resolve. That's why I opened the thread to see if anybody else has seen this problem before. Your right about xda app doing it alot.

Error while searching for networks

I have a desire z with cyanogenmod rom. while roaming in other countries, i try to register with certain networks to get unlimited data, but this error always occur and the phone just reg me with whatever network is strongest.
I flashed back to stock rom and this error is gone so i guess its cyanogens issue. anyone has a solution to help?
thanks!
I've tried the same thing! I get the same issue. I heard you change the apns but I tried to put in AT&Ts and when I get to the last prompt it doesn't save. Id love to use a diff. Network for data because my signal in my work is poor. I heard you can't get 3G is this true?

Roms don't function differently for different carriers... you just need to set your correct apn to get data and mms working right.
I've been using the cleanDROID rom in my sig.
Speedtest.net app I got +2700kbps for download and about +400kbps upload.
SMS and MMS work flawless.

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?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
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.

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.

I tried it on my galaxy s3 using t-mobile hot spot and it kept redirecting my me to sign up for the hot spot plan. However, I did use a different WiFi router app and was able to tether. I am rooted btw.
Tether did not work with my S3, but does with my G2 and current S2's Did not get a chance to try a different rom on the S3 before sale tho so not sure about that.

Probably a stupid question on XDA, but are you rooted and running custom roms on your S2s? I'm interested if anyone has tried this on stock firmware with one of thee non-root tethering apps. I would test myself but I can't remember the last time I had a phone with stock firmware.

my ladys first s3 wouldnt tether til rooted using an old wifi tether app, her replacement s3 i havn't had a chance to root yet and most likely won't. tether much til i flash custom
only problem i have now is xbox live wont let me see my friends, partyies, etc

Yep I used both the s2 and s3 sucessfully.....
There is also another topic explaining another method of replacing ur apn in the general subforum of the tmobile s3
As for the s2 there is threads for apns and then for user agents
Live throws a code stating that some items may not be available but playing and netflix green light
Updates you have to dl on ur pc then transfer it to ur xbox by disc, etc storage medium
I have also changed my dns servers but I can still use tmobiles dns and do both
I use to have a full live experience until the last 360 update and now something borked....nebody have ideas? Lol
So I should have no problem using my sensation as a hotspot to power my roku box to stream Netflix to my t.v. right? Thanks!!!
