Hey guys, happy new year first off. Now, my problem started right after new years where I receive a text message from a friend. Keeping in mind that i have a i896, i flashed to cognition 2.3b8 or w/e the newer version is called. I try to reply to my friend when all of a sudden it fails. So I try calling him instead, that failed as well. I tried texting and calling other people but that failed as well, yet my browser still continued to work. After an hour, no data can be found on my phone so now I am confused. I probably rebooted my phone 10 times by now. Anyhow, I reboot it and launcher pro settings are messed up, saying im not a pro member when i clearly paid for it as well as my phone not being able to receive any data from Rogers. Now, I randomly get a text from a friend, in which i cannot reply to once again. Is there anyway to fix this issue as it is quite random?
Sounds like a modem issue to me man. I would reflash and make sure you follow the instructions to the letter.
Also please post in the correct forum, this is not a development issue, it is Q&A.
What do you mean by the "letter." I will certainly reflash and repost in right section.

He means follow the instructions step by step and do exactly as they say even if you think you can skip a step or don't think it's necessary.

I think it's the unpublicized 2k11 bug..............
j/k.............just had to throw that out there. Hope you get it sorted.
I896... I had same issue. Rogers network was overloaded with calls and text messahes. My browser/data was still working. Happy new years rogers customers you come to find that the network is not as good as led to believe.

Currently its due for september.
seriously though, its released when its ready. No sooner.
And if the devs have to take the time to answer questions like this, then it will further delay the release.
If you really want to find out, read what alterbridge/pittbul have posted in the official thread in the dev section, like the rest of us.
Oh my God i can't wait for Overcome 2.1.

For me personally, i really need the auto-coffee-vending tweak, aswell as the flamethrower option.

I think we forgot to mention in the Changelogs that it will also turn your Tab into a microwave oven and a foldable car...
To the OP,
Follow the changelogs and release developments (when they happen) on teamovercome.net or on the main Overcome thread here on XDA
This is a bit of a pointless thread
All I need more from overcome are normal battery stats .... these are very annoying, every time I look at then I think I have android os bug ...

I seem to be spending most of my xda time on the sgs2 section....I'm happy with my tab, so just pop in now and again to see what is new. Basically to see if cm7 is matured, and also to see what wizardry the overcome team have produced.
But the sgs2 has tons more development(more is not necessarily better though, seeing as people just seem to be releasing 'themed' roms, nothing original apart from villainrom), but its a lot to keep up with
I can't live without the foldable car option.
I heard there will be invisibility built in too.

Overcome 2.01 crashes after upgrade from Overcome 1.6
Hi, I am new to the forum so please bear with me.
I had previously installed Overcome 1.6 on a Telstra Galaxy tab; I ran it for around 2 month with no hiccups. I recently updated to Overcome 2.01 to have video on skype; however ever since the upgrade the Tab is really unstable. It crashes every time I try to look for directions from google maps while on the road.
The crash is so severe that it won’t go past the overcome boot logo after restart. I reinstalled a couple of times with the same result. I also tried following the guide to step 6 and see if it also happened on the “factory fresh gingerbread” form; and this time it crashed as soon as I used the browser over wi-fi. The crash is as severe, the tablet shows a lot of pop up errors after boot and then it boots itself again.
Can I revert back to Overcome 1.6 while the new version (Android 2.3.4) is released; or I can’t go back from gingerbread to froyo?
Thank you for advising.
Cheers,

Hi There,
I indeed followed the instructions to the line the 3 times and the result is always the same.
I did notice that on the last step when loading the rom itself, the screen flickers a few times and during the "loading kernel" line a few blue lines appear; the process still finishes normally.
Should I use the Telstra modem file instead of the one on the JK3 folder?
Cheers,
hi carludo
crash while jusing wifi maybe the wrong modem. you are from australia?
is it a euro or asian tab? so look for the right modem. many times flash
the same maybe wrong.
best wishes to downunder.
Hi There,
Correct, it is a Telstra Galaxy tab, I used the modem file in the JK3 folder as per the instructions; I will give it another try and use hte modem file from that Testra restock thread and see if it makes a difference.
I will let you know later tonight how it goes.
Cheers from sunny Sydney
Hi everyone, I flashed different ROMs for a couple of weeks, and finally decide to settle down with OC 2.3.3, the July 15th latest one. However, the same problem occurred, which is with a Tmo Modem in the tab, I have great signal, EDGE data, and no phone function. With JK3, I got nothing, which is the main reason I switched back to Froyo at first.
I am a ATT user, holding a Tmo GT. I didn't find any fimilar threads, and in fact, I think this is a question needs precise answers.
Thanks in advance!
Updated on #4
UPDATE: I find the signal sometimes appeared and give me GPRS... So weird... I even reflash the rom again, not help. So any other paople could help me?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
You can use the t-mobile modem, and you will only get EDGE. You can use a vibrant modem and you can get voice and EDGE.
BUT YOU WILL NEVER GET 3G.
There are probably a five hundred posts on this.
And it will never matter which rom you use. It is only due to hardware limitations, as I explained to you elsewhere.
Thanks for the help, but you misunderstood. I know the edge and voice stuff, just the modem didnt work on my tab.
Since I absolutely want gingerbread this time, I finally figure this out, I went to wireless settings and select GSM only, instead of autoselect. NOW I can FINALLY make calls and get edge instead of gprs. I will keep tracked to see if this method could solve the problem eventually.

It is usually the simple things that cause us problems! And you wouldn't have gotten any reply if I didn't care about your problem.
Why can't you switch to a t-mobile sim card so you can enjoy the 3g?
Do u mean if I switch to tmobile I could get 3g and voice? I am managing a family plan right now and my wife is waiting for iphone 5, but if that is the situation, I might consider switching... ao attractive...

From my understanding TMO only provide 3G data plan for tab. No voice plan. Am i right rangercaptain? You did explain to me last time in other treat that only certain region receive the voice plan. Ex spain, israel etc. Or maybe my understanding is wrong? Haha,,just want some confirmation also on this matter. Im interested to know

You are 100% right.
T-mobile tabs in the USA get voice or 3g using the switch.
In a few other countries t-mobile tabs get voice and 3g, no switch needed.

Yes, sort of.
You would have to install the Rotohammer modem switch.
Mode #1 = voice, sms, and EDGE speed data.
Mode#2 = 3g data only.
Thank you for that info rangercaptain. You just add more knowledge to me.

realy? Thank a lot.
what?! I was under the impression that would only work in ICS?
Am I wrong? What do I need to do to use the GSM modem for calling on my 3g tab?

No you can't or if you can give us a clue on how to do it !!!
I have upgraded to Overcome 2.1.0 with 3.2 firmware and actually I have the "Phone" app which seems to work. I didnt tried to call because of my contract with the TIM brand, I can only navigate. Promise I will try this afternoon!

Use the SIM card from your phone when you do try later! If this works, then this is fantastic news!
I saw it pop up too but when you try to call out it errors out with a 'voice calling not supported' message.
I wonder how to get past that. Do we need a different radio rom or something.. ?
It would be awesome to get this working.

Other than pre-release press shots, no one has shown a Tab 8.9 or 10.1 with working GSM calling capability. Chances are if it's ever going to be made to happen it will be by a developer who is probably a member of XDA and s/he will post either screen shots or video. Until then, it's safe to assume that no Tab other than the 7, 7+, and 7.7 will ever be able to make GSM calls. There's hope that ICS may change that but for now it is what it is. And unless someone does post proof that it's been made to happen take anything said with a grain of salt.
Amen, lets make this a sticky.

If ANYONE claims they have working GSM calling capabilities on their 8.9/10.1, be prepared to present hard proof, or keep your silence!
Call =no, SMS=yes

Yeh,.. same here, I can send and receive SMS.
dial rooting
Hey ppl... well.. i just got my p7300 today and was more then embarassed tp find ou that it has no call functionality whatsoever after i torn the packaging apart at the shop. I just got a bit suspicious after i came home and my girlfriend told me that she could not reach me.
Long story short, i thought that i pass by @ xda to check the devs. Now ive seen that even around here nobody managed to get theor heads around it. Now that i have to use my old x10i i thought that it maybe is possible to somehow use the x10 as modem while using the p7300 as dialler.. maybe via bluetooth or sumthin like that>?!
Dont know if that would be usefull enough for others that a dev puts his head into it or if ot would not be way to complicated but thats on you to decide as i am no [email protected]

i was using 3G with T-Mobile since the euro baseband was released for the Optimus 3D. all you have to do is load the baseband and os onto your phone then go to settings - wireless networks-mobile networks- network mode- 3G only and ucheck use only 2G networks. after a while it would pick up the 3G signal. 4G might work but since I have Simple Mobile 4G isnt activated on my plan. Hope you get it to work for you.
So I need to download the EU baseband and install that. After that do what? When I goto my settings there is no setting for me to turn on or off 3g! There is no settings at all! Can someone please post some pics of this because this is really rubbing me the wrong way. I've been at this for over a week!! Thanks again for everyone who has been helping.

Make sure the phone you have IS the Thrill 4G 3D, for AT&T
after you've made sure is the correct phone, then load the KDZ or BB as is also called and make sure is V21D, I have tried V20C and it doesn't work
So after you've loaded V21D.
let it boot, go into wireless settings, access point, press menu and enter your own T-Mobile APN. The one I use is listed on the other thread about using tmobile 3g on the thrill, look for it, and good luck.
I'll post some screenshots when my daughter comes back from school later today and show the thrill running H on t-mobile network
Ok, did it again and still the same problem. I have a 4g lg thrill. This is crazy, why am I having such a problem?!!
screen shots as promissed
ok I look at your screens and the only thing I see different is that you only have tmobile listed as your apn but I have att phone and att wap listed on my phone. I do have the blue do on my tmbile and I've saved the apn. I think that maybe the problem. Is there a way to get rid of them? Thanks man for all your help, I feel I might get this taken care of.
when you are in the apn screen go into the att ones as if you're gonna modify them
press menu and delete, that should take care of your problem
it wont give me an option to delete or change them. Im going to post some pics of my phone so you can see.

Your problem is you STILL HAVE V20P
get rid of it and flash V21D, and then you'll have option to put your own APN
I see now where it says software version but I've downloaded the v21 6 different times! I've even done a google search and I will end up here for the version. The links I've tried here all give me the same one. I even downloaded another one last night before I went to bed and installed it and I'm still stuck with this one. How big is v21 so I know I have it exactly. I will put up screen shots of my computer to show you how many times I've downloaded them and what they say. If you have a link to where I can get it and you know its the correct one, please post it or send it to me at my name at hotmail. Thanks.

What I think is happening is the lg mobile tool is downloading the v20 and installing that. It always downloads a file that is around 425mb then installs that. What do I need to do to stop that from happening?
