I activate my wifi hotspot, then connect my PC wirelessly to the phone. Successfully connected and assigned IP, but I cannot browse. All websites time out. What's wrong? Is there any requirement for the PC wireless adaptor? PC can connect perfectly to Linksys wireless router.

Sorry I forgot to mention it, but yes, data packet is turned on and working, there's an E/3G/H next to my reception symbol. Wifi hotspot working. PC connected, IP assigned. But PC cannot surf. Turn off wifi hotspot, phone can surf.

Thanks.

i was unable to play mkv and mp4 video in my android phone.. any suggestions? Do i need to download any kind of codec pack ? Im using samsung galaxy sl. Please help me thanks.
*
Use a good player like MoboPlayer, no need extra codecs. You shouldn't have a problem playing mkv and mp4 on Galaxy SL.

hi
noob question...
current phone on 2.2. lets' say manufacturer mentioned that this phone is capable to upgrade to 2.3, max we can upgrade is 2.3 only ?
what happen if 2.4 or 3.0 out, are we managed to upgrade it too ?
*
You can upgrade to 2.4 or 3.0 (example) if there's a custom ROM. Custom ROM = written by developer who owns the phone and not associated with the phone manufacturer.

Eg. SEX10 currently on 2.1 officially, but devs have 2.2 and 2.3 ROMs for it.

any tools/software to copy contact and sms from one android phone to the other? plan to get a new phone, hope can move all my sms n contact to the new phone.
*
Contacts - sync to Google Contacts
SMS - use SMS Backup & Restore app to backup on old phone, copy XML to new phone, and restore using the same app

There may be better methods, but these work for me.

currently, i own 2 android phone, samsung G5 and ideos X5, both comes with their own charger.
samsung travel adapter - output : 5.0V == 0.7A
huawei power adapter - output : 5.0V == 1.0A

anyone know whether i can just use either one of this charger to charge both of my phone? will it cause any problem like inadequate power charge/etc?
thanks.
*
Can. I use my HTC (1.0A), Samsung (0.7A), SE (0.7A) chargers interchangeably, no noticeable difference. 0.7A may charge slower, that's all.

QUOTE(ichi_24 @ Jun 14 2011, 01:24 PM)
also when you install it, make sure your SD card are those latest version aka SDHC, this also has significant performance impact, in which i see from what i was given (2gb standard sd card, included when i bought my android) compare to one i recently bought (16gb SDHC bloody hell expensive) now multi-tasking was an absolute breeze, for now.
*
SDHC applies for cards 4GB and above. HC = high capacity. Maybe it was your card class which made the difference.

I got question regarding the GPS on Android smartphone:

i) without 3G, without interness access, with offline mode, can i use GPS function like a GPS device (Garmin/Papago) with pre-loaded map inside?

ii) Can I install Garmin or Papago on Android? With apps support offline map?
*
i) Depends on your GPS software. Those like Papago can. Google Maps can't.
ii) Papago X5 is for Android. Offline map supported. Go to www.malfreemaps.com for the monthly updated maps.

hey guys, my galaxy mini keep having wifi error

need to reboot back then it's finally function

kinda annoying

anyway galaxy mini + root

oh same shit happen even before i root

froyo problem?
*
Probably wifi driver or chip problem. You can try restarting the driver instead of rebooting. Type *#*#526#*#* and see if it works. Regardless of whether it works or not, you should bring your phone to Samsung.

Isn't that an HTC phone? I believe Profiles is part of HTC Sense. It allows you to change your home screen based on selected profiles, right?

Guys,just want to ask your opinion. This software used to work perfectly fine for me. Regardless of 3G connection or WiFi.

After updating via Market, I realised it always freezes and I have to force close the app. However,it works perfectly fine with WiFi.

Ive tried uninstalling,and reinstalling , deleting the app folders in SDcard, factory reset my HTC Desire.
There is a log file ,I will just post a link here so u can have a look(for those who are familiar with codes)

After looking at those codes in the log,I'm beginning to think that, Maxis is to blame. Its 3G connection became slow which resulted in "connection time out" as per reported in the log. (Im just assuming!!)

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=X0C3BAPN

So, just wondering what would your opinion be. Im dying to have this app. Im heavily dependent on this app for driving.

So please, anyone!
*
Why not try the previous stable version of the app? The dev website may provide one. Or Google for the APK.

You mean the App drawer? Your apps 'suddenly' in vertical order, must be some settings you changed or app you installed. Or install some 3rd party launcher like GO Launcher, can change your apps scrolling to be vertical or horizontal.

I realized this problem had not been followed up. I get the same problem with my Incredible S

1. I installed GPS Test and it did locked on to 7 satellites
2. But when i use PAPAGO X5, it keep on searching for satellites.
3. Before, i tried to reinstall application and storage card files for Locations, under
    Setting > Location
4. It did solve the problem. However, after a while, the same problem repeating again.
5. Is ASTRO File manager giving problem?

Thank you sooo much for your cooperation and willingness to answer this problem.
*
Did it detect 7 satellites or really lock on to 7 satellites? It locks on when there's a positive number in Accuracy. Then exit GPS Test, start Papago, it should be good to go. Under Locations, you can check 'Use wireless networks' if you have a data plan, it will use data to locate the satellites and lock on faster.

Facebook is one of those apps which is excellent on iPhone but crappy on Android. Look at all those reviews in Market, it's scary.
