Extended wifi range via hiddenmenu - LG Thrill 4G

Posted this in the o3d forum thought i would post here. Cause im canadian and i like my american neighbours. Eh!
Never seen any one post this tip so here is mine. The improvement was very noticeable. Discovered by me.
1. Use a different launcher that allows activites. (Launcher Pro) install.
2. Long press on homescreen click shortcut then goto activites.
3. Expand com.lge.hiddenmenu then click hiddenmenu, it should now be on homescreen.
4. Run hiddenmenu goto connectivity test. Uncheck power save. Lol.
Simple i know. But enjoy longer range and more power.

For sure about the toggle. I posted in o3d forum and its does not work for everyone. P920? V10k? So many things are different. All i know is it works on lg-p925g v10c. Let me know.

You can use this code to access that menu also: 3845#*920#

Is there a repository of these codes somewhere?

I prefer the "any cut" method. Download "any cut" from the market. Make a shortcut on your homescreen to hidden menu or connectivity test. I already have it straight to connectivity test for tethering anyway.

The most awesome upgrade to my phone yet! Thank you! Went from no wifi at work, to 1 bar! Thank-you! !!

You will need to enable non market apps

New XDA Premium Android App Released!
For a while now, we've been working on a premium version of the extremely popular XDA Android App (which has been downloaded half a million times). The premium version, now on sale for just $0.99, removes the ads, plus brings the following enhancements that the free app does not have:
+ Ability to collapse top bar to maximize screen real estate
+ Access to Legacy forums
+ Ability to add forum shortcuts to your Android homescreen for super quick access to your favorites
+ Custom XDA color scheme (changeable to default through Settings)
+ Choose whether to land on first post, last post, or first unread post within a given thread
+ Bug fixes to enhance speed
If you want to try it out (and if you hate it, Android Market lets you get a full refund within 15 minutes), search the market for "XDA Premium".

I like it better than the free version.
The default colors match the website.
It seems more responsive and maybe that's just perception, but it also doesn't have to grab the ads, either.
Choosing where to start when the app first loads is great.
Choosing where to start when reading a post is nice, too.
But...
The number one feature of the premium app is just supporting XDA, which has provided this great environment for us.
I got it just to support xda. Differences are minor but nice.

I just purchased the premium app to support xda but aside from the theme its no different than free version. I don't see any ads in the free xda app, do you guys?
most custom roms have ad blocking built in.
also the xda premium is suposed to allow you to make shortcuts on the desktop but it doesnt work for me.

Here is the APK, seems to work fine even though the market claims its not compatible.
OK so here is my current set up. Using GtalkSMS to redirect all my sms to the zoom and to reply from also using Google Voice got it working. So for now this should do.

The last time I went to XDA through an app I used Tapatalk instead of XDA because I already use Tapatalk for all the other forums. I did buy the XDA app to support XDA, I just don't like keeping so many different apps all for forums. I found that the Tapatalk app doesn't crash when I browse on it, if you wanted to try that?
i've noticed that it crashes when you are giving to many inputs i.e. tapping too much. If you avoid this, the app works well.
There is also an issue of tap detection. when i try to reply to someone i have to tap on the post below the one desired. :/ but it doesnt crash the app... so thats a plus right?

Appreciate it. Yeah, I've never quite gotten used to Facebook, still keep forums I've been on for years.... Tapatalk is a really nice way to organize them all. The only thing that drives me nuts is that when you go to download a file off of a forum it opens a browser which kind of disrupts the flow, but I think XDA app did the same thing. That would be a tremendously useful thing for the XDA app to do is manage XDA downloads, but for all I know it does that now, I haven't used the XDA app in awhile. These ATT ROMs are around a gig sometime... Hell to download on a mobile phone just because so many things seem to be able to break the download. And the download managers seem to hiccup sometimes with the site that are primarily used for hosting, don't know why.
I bought the xda premium app a couple years ago to show my support. But it does suck on this phone. Doesn't show pictures corectly. The search function is not very helpful. When I open it if it's been in the the background for a while it won't connect to the server to refresh. I have to close it and open it again. Also when leaving the app the animation lags really bad. I always thought it ironic that the XDA app was so buggy lol
**side note- I don't know the first thing about making apps or how hard they are to debug and make run smoothly on all devices. So I'm not hating. Just throwing it out there...
