HTC Desire :: Wi-fi And 3g Network Conflicting?
May 31, 2010
Bit random but I just noticed that my phone was displaying the icons for both 3g and wi-fi, rather than just wi-fi. Normally when there is a wi-fi signal the phone shuts down 3g.However, I could not connect to anything. I could turn off wi-fi and connect via 3g or turn of 3g and connect via wi-fi, but when both were on it seemed like both were trying to connect and getting confused.A reboot solved the issue. did I do something silly?

I alternate between two wifi networks on my HTC Desire running Android 2.2 ( I think!)On one network I need to specify the network IP/subnet/Gateway and so on, on the other network I can use DHCP.Is there any way to tell Android that whenever I connect to one wifi network it should use the static IP and on the other it should get an IP automatically?I am forever going into advanced wifi settings and changing them back and forth. I'd love for my phone to remember the settings used on each wifi profile.

I have been trying to find a way of quickly switching off/on the Mobile Network setting from the home screen. When searching Google there's loads of pages stating that it is an HTC Widget that can be added. I have checked all the widgets on the Desire HD and cannot seem to find it anywhere. I am using an unbranded handset.
The Desire HD manual even states "You can also add widgets that allow you to quickly switch on or off certain settings of your phone, such as Wi-Fi, Mobile Network...".
Does anyone else with an HD handset have this widget ?

I just entered my app to ADC2 the other day.I hadn't realized before that it seems like we could have released the app in the marketplace after August 1st, which means I guess I missed out on a month of potential feedback, but there you go :-).Anyway, so I assume we are now free to upload our ADC submitted applications to the marketplace, which I tried to do today, but I encountered a problem.I got this message: "You have another application on Market with the same package name (fm.smart). Go to that other application, and click upgrade." So it seems my ADC submission is blocking a release of this app.

There's a lot of noobish posts/replies about rooting and EVO here, so I'm trying to fully grasp what is true and what is not.A lot of posts/replies indicate you lose all of your data/apps/settings but I'm beginning to think that this only happens with the toastcfh root but NOT the unrevoked root. Can someone (who has a clue and has done this) please confirm?The sticky says that the OTA will kill the Root.This seems to contradict what unrevoked is saying on Twitter. So will it clobber the unrevoked root or the toastcfh root (or both)? I find it hard to believe unrevoked is wrong about their own app/testing/rooting.Next a lot of folks say wifi-tethering is broken. First off, I believe it wasn't "working" unless you used the Sprint Mobile WiFi HotSpot and are paying for it. So when someone says "its broken" that leads me to believe rooting the EVO breaks the Sprint Mobile WiFi Hotspot, which I kind of doubt, but want to confirm. Sure it likely doesn't resolve the MAC/ARP issue for android-wifi-tether app, but I'm not trying to get something for free here, I'm already paying for Sprint's Mobile Hotspot, I just don't want to break it.
My last question is for the UNIX folks out there - Has anyone found an Apache or similar web server which is ported to Android, which I could load? What about SSHD? IMHO, there's no point in rooting if I can't run a web server or SSH daemon. I don't care to kill the Sprint bloatware (kind of like it) as I have already resolved my battery issues (see my other post).

I just bought one of these cheap Chinese CECT Android phones (i9300 Samsung clone), which was advertised as running Android v4.0 (ICS). Looks good and works well.... but
When I go to SettingsAbout Phone it says it is running v4.0.3 which is fine.However, when I boot into recovery mode and select 'version' it says it is running Android Ver 2.3.6 (Gingerbread).Before I complain to the seller about false advertising, what is the true OS version of this phone, Gingerbread or ICS ? I would have thought that it is in fact running Gingerbread, but is their a quirt about this that I may be unaware of?

I'm trying to change my "Account Picture" in Handcent so that I'm not a silhouette with a question mark above my face in the chat threads. Unfortunately, when I go to change my Account Picture, it does nothing. Instead, it changes my X's home screen background to whatever picture I had selected for my Account Picture.

Everything is working fine, I can access the provider. The problem is that I want to create a demo version of my app and I want it to share the same content provider so when the user install the full version, the data is kept in sync. Also, it should be possible to install only the full or the demo version. Therefore, I have to include my content provider in both.Now, when I try to install both apps error message, obviously because both AndroidManifest declare the same content provider.Is there a way to tell in the Manifest that this content provider should be used only if it doesn't already exists ? Or another workaround ?A solution would be that the full version migrate the data from a demo content provider to the full version content provider, but I would rather avoid that.

I just got an HTC Desire that was locked to Telus (Canadian Carrier). I have read that numerous people are using it on Rogers network. From the day I got it when I put my rogers sim card in (the right way) it said "No SIM card in phone" so I could not enter an unlock code. Thinking the SIM was defective went to Telus and tried one of their sim cards and it worked fine, then I went to Rogers thinking it was a problematic card. We tried 4 cards and none of them worked. I then went to Bell (another canadian carrier) and tried their sim card. It worked as well but said that the phone was locked. I purchased an unlock code from the internet which worked. Now the Bell sim card works as well becuase the phone is unlocked. I put my Rogers SIM back into it and it still sais "No SIM card in phone". I also tried a SIM from a european company and it did not work as well. This HTC Desire works on the same 3G 850/1900 GSM that Rogers uses.

I discovered that I can get all sorts of music playing within multiple apps at once. I had Pandora playing and then I clicked the headset button and got the music player going along with Pandora and dropped a call. I would consider that some serious software rule conflicts.

A couple of the reviews refer to the app space and say that none of the 8gb is for apps and you are constrained to the rom. This makes no sense, based on the 768mb free storage showing up in snapshots of some of the reviews. Logic is taking a hit here:
1. 768mb shows free for storage
2. Internal media memory shows 6.6gb
3. If 8gb flash, about 7.8 should show free (not 6.6)
4. If apps are constrained to the 512mb rom (as reviews state), the OS and preinstalled apps would take up space, so 220mb or less would be free with Android 2.1 and the Sense UI
5. 768mb free on a 512mb rom is impossible- even excluding how much space the OS and preinstalled apps take.

I have two different project A & B. Inside the project A I link the source from project B so activity from project A can start the activity from project B. I'm using Eclipse Galileo.The problem is, when I want to edit the value of a view in activity B, the resource id from both projects have some conflicts in it. So when I call findViewById() in activity B I got a view from the activity A instead.I've declared the activity B inside the AndroidManifest in project A. I've even tried to start the activity B as the entry point of the application but it didn't show anything at all. It's like the findViewById tried to search the view of project A only although I've specified the package name correctly.

I'm tired waiting 3 months for reply from Google Market. I requested them to help - no help, no explanation, so I hope, somebody will read at least this. I need to my software be removed from ADC2 part of Market, because for last 3 months, I CAN NOT set right name for my software in public Market. Do not direct me to Market groups - their "support" is dead.

I have a situation where I have some textview on a framelayout that I have a onTouch event wired in order to simulate dragging. I alos want to enable the ability to have a context menu display when the user long presses the textview. Now that I have implemented the context menu functionality dragging no longer works since the longpress is always served by the context menu event.Does anyone know of a workaround for this.

Have been used to Nokias in the past, both personally and for work, so the DHD is my first non-Nokia phone for ages. With the E71 I had, whenever I wanted to go on-line it asked me which access point I wanted to use. This meant that if I was out and about I'd use the 3G network but if I was at home I'd choose wifi. With the DHD it doesn't ask and appears to me to want you to choose which network to use purely by 'default'. That is, if it's switched on then it'll use it.Have I missed something in the manual? Maybe I've misunderstood how the networking is prioritized?

Is there any app or ROM that has been modified to allow for connection to a PC generated Ad Hoc network to allow the phone to use the PC's internet connection? Sometimes called reverse tehtering (through wifi, not usb) or an app that allows USB reverse tethering?I have found several posts that have bits and pieces of the how-to using ADB push/pull of various WIFI related files, but nothing with enough detail for me to figure out.

I bought my HTC Desire from T-Mobile Montenegro with prepaid SIM. After i leave the Montenegro i change to my Orange card, and get the "SIM network unlock PIN" message. I purchased the unlock code from globalunlock.com - Global Unlock - The Official Mobile Phone Unlocking Site. After i inserted the code i get the "Invalid Password" message.

I have a Telus Desire which I have debranded (running Froyo) and unlocked. I have a Rogers sim card. I have been in Tokyo twice now and I am unable to find a network here. Even when I search for one I am unable to find it. Is my problem because of the rom I have used? I know there are Desires sold in Japan and they work but I am at a loss.

As part of my battery saving techniques i often use a widget which turns off the APN. This has direct effect on disabling 3g as it no longer flashes in the task bar, but can someone explain the difference between turning off the APN or turning off the whole 'mobile network' (holding the power button and selecting mobile network off)Also, do both ways save the same battery?

I have a HTC Desire on Orange contract, I have had no problems with it or any billing problems until now!!!
Went on holiday but before I went I took a travel bundle of 10 MB, I know I would probably use more than this but only by a a few MB whislt out of wi fi zones... got back to UK and checked my bill and �537.00 is the data charge.. considering 95% of my web and email activity was via a wi fi network I am rather shocked.
I have heard that the HTC Desire still uses the 3g or data network even if you are in a wi fi zone, can anyone confirm this as I am having a bust up with Orange as it does not state anywhere that the data connection is still running when you are in a wi fi zone... bit pointless having wi fi or doing stuff in a wi fi zone if you are still being charged data.. why would you have wi fi on if you were going to be charged.
I uploaded youtube clips, facebook, listened to the radio all through what I thought was my FREE wi fi network... every other phone I have ever had automatically cut the data connection when you were in a wi fi zone... it seems that the desire does not do this....

I' ve been using a lot my Desire these days and absolutely love it.I surf the Internet a lot and just wanted to make sure if I get it all right:
1. If I only use the Mobile Network Internet on my phone that means I am using the Internet my provider (Orange in this case) gives me per month. I have 1GB limited Interned each month and therefore surfing the web through the Mobile Network option means I am draining from that 1GB limit.
2. If I only use the Wi-Fi Internet (when Mobile Network is OFF) on the phone that means I connect to (in this case) my home Internet router and use it to access Internet and therefore do not drain any of the 1GB limit I have per month.
Is that right? I use Internet a lot and don't want to end up paying huge bills to Orange.And last question- what happens if both options (Mobile Network and Wi-Fi) are turned ON? What Internet will I be using- Orange's or the one from my home Internet router?

Basically I was at work today, the reception was okay and I wanted to go on the net. When I tried to turn mobile network on (I normally keep it off to save battery), it just said "connecting" in the dark silver colour and that was it. It didn't turn on at all, until I turned the phone off completely and then the mobile network was on when the phone was re-started. It happened to me twice that day.
