Bluetooth Transfers restarts Incredible S - HTC Incredible S

Hello all,
Just got my IS a week back.
Facing some minor issues.
The major one relating to bluetooth transfers.
My wife has a Xperia Play, so was trying to send some games & apps using Bluetooth file transfer app.
Small apps go through with no issues, however while transferring larger files (like angry birds and other large file sized games), the transfer slows down, halts & the phone reboots.
I then have an error pop up saying 'The phone has recovered from an unknown crash. Let HTC know' (or something similar along those lines).
Any ideas on this?

Never faced anything like this. Transfers work fine for large files also.

Yeah. seems strange.
Had the X10 earlier and never had the issue.

[Q] MTP extremely slow

Hello,
one thing that really bugs me about the razr i is that it is not a mass medium, but MTP device when you connect it with the PC. I have serious issues with that (7/64bit). I don't know whether it's the driver or MTP itself, but when i connect my razr i to my PC, everything is like in slow motion.
I click "Computer" ... the blue bar in the adress bar starts running at the left side. Even this takes up to 30 seconds sometimes. I click my razr i, give it a bit of time to select SDCard. This is where it gets really funny.
Each time i navigate through the menus, it has to rebuild the index or anything similar to it. It takes 2+ minutes (!!) for every folder to show up. But it's not over yet, when i want to go to music and click this folder, it's the same issue. The connection is so incredible slow, it's faster uploading and redownloading it. A few weeks ago i copied 3gb to the SD card and it took one or two hours.
When i first discovered, how incredible slow the phone is when i want to access the SD card, i tried to put it into a cardreader, but it's somehow encrypted now (i did not encrypt it by myself, i think the razr does it by itself without asking?). Does anyone have similar issues, has a workaround (i could imagine it's because of my PC, not the phone itself)?
Wnna know something funny? I had similar issues, and using the usb ports in the back of my computer solved it. Also, i strongly recommend you to use AirDroid, its insanely fast.

Back ports, same issue. I started to copy a folder to the internal storage 10 minutes ago, so far it had copied 500kb (50 png icons)
I'm downloading airdroid right now. Anyway i hope MTP will work one day as i think wireless is just a workaround .. I could swear for an hour straight, why did they remove the mass medium option that my DHD always had?
I take sd card out every time

MTP just sucks really.
its much worse on my galaxy nexus then on the razr i. But at least on the razr i I can take the sd card out.
Not sure why google went with MTP.
Edit also could be slow as the phone is still reading and writing to the sd card at the same time as the pc.
Slower than on the razr i? 500kb in 10 minutes is ... 830 bytes per second. 830 BYTES!! Even floppies were faster than that!
Thanks for the AirDroid tip, very useful. One drawback is - apart from that it doesn't work with my beloved opera - it also tells me in chrome that it can't upload folders. So i have to create them manually.. Works fine anyway and it's enough for my needs. Thank you, you made copying to the razr i almost enjoyable!
That is a lot slower then it should be what OS are you running?

Win7 x64. I already reinstalled the moto drivers.
I think that my old mainboard (Gigabyte P35-DS3P) could be the cause .. Although my windows install is pretty old and doesn't run that well anymore. I think i'll format my system soon, maybe it's gone after that.

Using Android File Transfer on OSX

anyone else having trouble transferring files via AFT? after a minute or so, it'll say that I need to unlock my phone even though it's not. even while actively fiddling with it during file transfers, i get the same error message. makes it a hassle when transferring directories at a time for music since I have to unplug and plug back in again to get AFT working.
this happening to anyone else?

I gave up on AFT a long time ago, was always very unreliable with all devices I have used.
I suggest you take a look at airdroid. With 802.11ac Wifi I'm seeing 20MiB/s transfers all wireless while moving files from the browser (chrome) to the Nexus 6 all without having to plug anything anywhere. Convenient and fast.
I'm having no issue with AFT on the latest Yosemite OS.. I just got my Nexus 6 today and transfer all my stuff twice already. Because of the new update the phone had today. And I don't like updating on top of the old one. I like a fresh OS at every android release ?

It freezes up my MBP constantly. Incredibly frustrating utility.

Have OS X 10.9.5 and Nexus 6. But AFT shows "No Android device found" when connecting phone and Mac
for me on nexus 4 (croma 6.0.0.1) and osx 10.10.5 everything is well... but AFT don't see every directory and file!
if i use it under TWRP AFT see every single file!!??
why!?

[Q] Galaxy Note 4 turn the volume down while running...

My brother is having problems with his Note 4... It turns the volume all the way down when using the phone while running on the treadmill.... Doesn't matter if the phone is in his pocket or sitting still on the treadmill, doesn't matter which music app he's listening to and doesn't matter what headphones he's using.... The phone has been reset and it didn't make a difference, the phone has been replaced and the problem persist....hes removed Pandora, he removed power amp, he's removed live wallpapers AND all at the request of tmobile trouble shooting process... NOTHING!!! the problem seems to be isolate to him and up until today's search I couldn't find anyone else experiencing this issue... But finally today I came accross this thread
http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...olume-turns-down-while-listening-pandora.html
But still no solution
Been running all the Pandora and stock music app no issue
BAD ASS NOTE 4 & BAD ASS GEAR S
I also have a Note 4 and so does my wife and neither of us have similar problems with our phones... I'm looking for help with this problem, not more examples of the problem being non existent... If it effected EVERYONE then I wouldn't be at a loss... I don't mean to be rude and if I seem that way please accept my apologies... I just don't want this to turn into a thread of testimonials of how no one else is experiencing this issue.
Just for ****s and giggles. Did you try to use phone while jogging outside. Does it still lowers volume down? That way you would eliminate possibility of interference from treadmill.

Actually at one point he thought it was Pandora because he was using the unlimited skip apk version of it and in his mind that made it suspect... He removed it and the problem went away... (so he thought) then while jogging home it happened again... He calls the phone "Samsuck" and it makes me feel like **** because I recommended it and I know he's very frustrated... I'm the techy person in the family (everyone comes to me) and I'm at a loss... I'm not an apk developer or a computer wiz of any sort but I'm slightly gifted and I've been installing competition level car audio for 20+ years, so electronics in general are 2nd nature to me
Are you using any sound enhancing software? When I was using Noozxoide Eizo sometimes I was losing volume control by mechanical buttons and touch control via screen after I change volume up/down rapidly. Only restarting phone fixed that. Since I no longer using that soft problem disappeared.

No unfortunately... If it's software related then it's nothing apparent, nothing like that has been downloaded

Have you reset the phone and have him just use it stock and only listen to mp3? Then start adding "music" apps one by one.

He's waiting for his 2nd replacement now... I asked him not to install ANYTHING except Pandora and to use that to work out for a few days and then start installing his apps one at a time... (honestly this is not something he wants to do) He's already extremely frustrated with his phone (as he should be) after all its almost an $800 device... Tmobile told him that if he has issues with this one, they would start talking about a different replacement... He's considering the LG G3... However the way tmobile worded it I'm not exactly sure if they will honestly let him out of this contract and into another... I hope they do... I myself know how electronics can behave and my frustration comes with some understanding that the process of elimination is a crucial part of the process in problems such as these... But even I don't understand Samsung and there constant [email protected]$465sh%)t with these phones... WiFi connectivity issues, incoming messages and alerts lowering bluetooth volume, OK Google no longer pausing music when activated and for me mirrorlink doesn't work with my Brand new pioneer deck... And it's clearly a Samsung issue (I've researched the crap out of it)... Everytime I purchase a new Samsung I tell myself it's my last one and EVERTIME they release another must have flagship phone... I'm a geek and can't help myself but my brother unfortunately just wants something that works without all these issues... He doesn't own a pc and I've taught him how to torrent straight to his device and he's hooked!!! Unlimited skip Pandora apk also is a must have for him and for those 2 reasons I can not recommend an iPhone but otherwise an iPhone would be a better fit for him... For me? Android all the way, all the time!! Thanks everyone for trying to help, I truly appreciate it
Assuming that your mirror link deck is 1.1 version try use this quide.

Thanks... It's a 2015 deck and although I don't remember the software version number I do know it's the same version mirrorlink as the note 4... Pioneer customer service assured me it was the device I needed for Note 4 compatibility... I'll try it, although the instructions are a little strange... Bluetooth has to be on?? As soon as the radio sees a USB connection, it disables Bluetooth and the other was make sure my phone is connected to WiFi or a network connection? Not sure what that's about??? I would have to deliberately turn it off so I'm sure it was on the last time I tried to enable mirrorlink.

Unable to download files after Lollipop upgrade

Hi everyone,
I finally upgraded to Lollipop on my device a couple days ago. I'm noticing a couple weird things like icons disappearing on my desktop using the Nova launcher, but mainly the one I'm worried about and which I noticed today, was my inability to download any file. I first noticed it on Dropbox; when I try to download something it comes up with an error "Storage full or Unavailable", however when trying to download an audio sent to me trough WhatsApp, fails as well. And lastly, I tried downloading a file in my Mega account which never even starts to download. I checked and have more than enough space both internally and the SD card.
I searched and found some people with the same Dropbox issue but no solution whatsoever.
If anyone here can help me, I'd really appreciate it.
The only fix I've seen for that problem is a reflash of the rom. That was quite a big problem for a lot on Nexus owners when Lollipop came out.

Flaky wifi?

Is anyone else having issues with wifi reliability? My wife and I each got a Fire a week ago, and I have done the update to 5.0.1 and the sideloading of the Google framework and Google Play to both. They both work great, except they are both very flaky on the wifi at home. The connection doesn't drop, but we'll be browsing the web or using an internet-based app, and after a while it will just sit for a long time trying to load a page or download a file. Turning airplane mode on and right back off again "revives" the connection and it works fine for a while longer, then just quits again. It's pretty frustrating and is a barrier to use. Funny thing is, we both have android phones (LG G3 for me, Moto X for her) and both of our phones are fine on the same wifi.
Is this happening to anyone else, or does anyone know what might be going on?
I've noticed the same issue, it's definitely device related. Personally it doesn't happen often to mine and hasn't become too much of a nuisance to me yet. Maybe it'll be fixed (if possible) in a future update.
i experience the same thing but with differences
1) my connection does drop out sometimes, while my
laptop has no issues
2) i don't browse the web with my Fire. But i do download
and find around 30% of files will stall for a min or so before
finishing the download
Been fine for me but when I was playing madden I kept getting disconnected I blamed it on servers as all my other games work fine I'm on 5.0.1
