I have my g1 for just over 3 days now and its brilliant. I do agree battery life sucks but this is something I can cope with.
However over these 3 days I already had twice the problem with gprs. When I go to the browser it doesn't open anything, just shows white space and waits for the page to load... I tried then Market and the same, couldn't get past initial selection (loading...)
It eventually displayed network error and gprs icon disappeared.
Moment after it reappeared and when I went back to browser it worked normal again.
It seems like gprs connection is hanging and once it is reset it works fine.
Is there any way of manually resetting the connection?
Second thing I noticed is with alarm sounds. Is it possible get rid of the alarm sound and just make it vibrate in the morning? I thought that if the phone is in silent mode with vibrations off it would just vibrate in the morning but it started to ring as well.
It would be better if silent mode was a "master setting" if you know what I mean... is there any way to accomplish that?
apart from these two issues the phone is great upgrade from kaiser... love the screen and responsiveness.
anyone?
Try deleting out all the apn's apart from the T-Mobile uk 1.
Settings/Wireless Controls/Mobile networks/Access Point Names
Click the name then hit menu then delete.
After do a reboot.
Turn airplane mode on then off. That should reset your data connection. As for the sound, there might be an app on the market that toggles all sound.
i'm not sure about data connection problem, removed all redundant apn's and it seems to be happening less often.
as for the alarm, I recorded 10sec silent mp3 and set this as an alarm - worked a treat!
I have my home wifi connected, and set to 'turn off when screen off'. The problem is that my phone doesn't seem to connect back to wifi if the wake the phone up after some time. This never was an issue with Captivate. But with this, even using a widget to turn on wifi doesn't seem to work. I need to go through all the way to wifi settings through the settings app manually turn it off and on.
Anyone else facing this issue?
I'm not because I have it set to always stay on. When I know I'm not going to he using the wifi heavily or I simply don't need it, I turn it off.

1. remember a wifi ap first.
2. turn off the wifi
3. turn on the wifi again
4. immediately turn off the screen before it search n connect to the wifi ap
5. when it connect the wifi ap under the screen is turn off
6. the HANDS FREE MODE turns on automatically itself. weird.....

Whenever I switch from LTE/3G to wifi the Hands Free starts by itself. At first I thought I was touching the home button every time I came home and left the car, was "driving" me crazy... :laugh: But finally figured it was when I changed to my home wifi that it started automatically.

Dasdman, so how do you fix this issue ?
Everytime when i return home and the phone automatically change to home wifi, the hands-free mode turn on automatically
But I want to use my home wifi when i am at home, or my office wifi when i am at office
but i DO NOT want the hands-free mode turn on.
Is there any solution to solve this??? Is this a FLAW ?? a BUG ??
I have not seen a solution or any widespread problem reported. I have confirmed it auto starts when switching from 3G/LTE/4G to WIFI.
same here

Hands-free mode bug
I have the same issue. I bet they call it a feature but it is a bug. I do not need hands-free mode while I am connected to my home wifi. Why would anyone want to have that mode turned on automatically again, after I turned it off?
This is a bug - looking for a solution!
Problem Solved
I found a solution to the problem - at least it worked for me.
Go to location services under settings, chose my places, chose car, select method - none, save.
Now the hands-free mode does not turn on automatically.
Hope this works.

Was having the same issue on my Tmobile N3.
This Works. I remember at one point adding these settings in. Would have never thought that it would do all that. Either way thank you! :good:

You, my friend, are some kind of genius! This thing has been bugging me for weeks! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!

I hope this helps someone...
I found this thread via a search for my issue, which is that I have an S4 (SCH-I545) running MK2 and Hyperdrive and when I put it in the iBolt xPro car dock, 2 instances of HANDSFREE show in the notification panel. A screenshot of the screen when docked.
Itried the actions described in this thread, buit those boxes were already unchecked.
I found on another thread that disabling the S Voice app would help.
Well, turning off the S Voice app did get rid of one, of the two instances of HANDSFREE, in the notification panel, when docked.
Now to figure out how to remove the other....
I have the same exact problem and it's very annoying as it read out messages and answers phone calls sometimes too when it hears people talking in the background
Really stupid I'm thinking to switch to iOS
I've just got an S6 E+ as a replacement for my note 4 and i can't get it to turn the wifi off with screen off. I've set it in advanced options which has no effect. I can't find the option for notifying about open networks in 6.0.1, thats the only thing i can think of. turned off everything in location settings to do with wifi. restricted most of my apps to power save. literally can't get it to turn off. Everytime i turn my screen back on the wifi symbol there already. My HTC thats running 6.0 always has the hsdpa symbol when you turn on the screen which then changes to wifi on reconnect.
Any help will be very much appreciated
I am using
Redmi Note 4 (mido) 4GB+64GB
RQ1A.210205.004
PixelExperience_mido-11.0-20210203-2157-BETA-OFFICIAL
1. Everything is greyed out even screenshot and select. (images attached)
I can fix this by restarting the phone but the issue comes back after a few days.
2. I can't change mobile data from my 4g-only sim to the other sim without restarting the phone(airplane mode works but then I can't receive calls).
3. USB Tethering doesn't work.
It was working when I had stock ROM.
Also in ClockWorkMod Tether, it says USB tether is not running even after enabling it in settings.
4. The notification LED is too bright.
I didn't think it was possible but the brightness of the notification LED actually is getting uncomfortable at night.
5. Wifi keeps disconnecting sometimes.
Although I cannot reproduce this result every time it does happen frequently.
Every wifi in my building keeps getting disconnected when this happens.
6. All the Wifi networks in my area doesn't show up at once.
It takes around 10-20 seconds for all the available networks to show even those which have a good signal.
This problem is especially visible when I wifi I was connected to randomly disconnects.
7. There is no internet speed indicator option.
Been using 3rd party software.
8. There are no arrows to show data transfer next to the signal indicator in the status bar.
I don't know if this feature is in stock android.
9. Cannot use chat bubbles in 3rd party apps.
I can't seem to find the bubble option for apps like WhatsApp and Instagram.
10. Call app is slow.
It takes a few seconds to show the calling screen after tapping the call button.
The screen doesn't show up when removing the phone from my ear, I have to manually double tap to make the display come up so I can end the call.
