Signal issues?

I am having some fairly significant signal issues with my Galaxy S. At home on my iPhone I can get almost full bars if placed beside a window. On the Galaxy S I am lucky if I get 1 bar. I have also caught the phone sitting at 3-4 bars but try and make a call and you get no data network.
Any ideas? I have tried 2.1 Vodafone that it came with and a froyo ROM both the same results.

Either you do not have the network connections set up APN etc
Wireless and Network settings .
It may be worth a Factory Restore .
You may have network switched off so double check your networks settings under Access Settings .
Or it wants returning to the vendor broken hardware .

What has APN to do with a voice call anyway?
Under APN I have
Orange MMS
Orange Internet

Service Centre then if you think its all set up correct .

In your first post you say you have 2.1 Vodafone, yet your settings are for Orange.
You need to set up your phone to the same network as your Sim.
If I have misread your post, I'm sorry.

[Q] Best ROM for enterprise wifi

I'm new to the forums but I have tried to read through as much as I can. I updated to 2.2 last week with the update from samsung. I knew that the "update" wouldn't work any better with my work's wifi connection but I wanted to try anyways.
My question is, out of all the roms out there, do any of them work using 802.1x security with authentication through peap and mschapv2?
I can see our network but can't connect to it, our radius servers don't even see my connection attempts. I work in the school's IT department so we have spent a pretty fair amount of time trying to make this work. Not just for me, but for other android users as well.
I've tried using a few of the wifi apps but none of them seem to help.
I am using a samsung captivate on att, not rooted.
Thanks for any help

Add the network manually and select the right authentication method. In settings>wireless

Thanks for the reply but I've been through the whole wifi menu and tried different settings and I can't seem to get anything to work so I was thinking of rooting and loading a rom if enterprise wifi connections are better.

Any rom is basically going to work the same as far as wifi goes. As long as you can select the settings to match your network as shown in the screenshot, it should work.

Not always. If he needs and ad-hoc connection he needs to use a different wpa_supplicant than the one that comes with stock and many of the custom roms. As well, it is possible that the dhcpcd on the rom he is running is not capable to obtain ip/dns/subnet from his particular network.
Take a look here for the dhcp info and here for the supplicant thingy (not sure if is compatible with galaxy s, there was one for SGS floating around but cant find it atm)
If still doesnt work, it should work by editing the bcm... something.conf in data (i dont have my phone with me.)
EDIT: Im using my phone with LEAP / IPsec and is a pain to configure it without an app that someone made for this specific network configuration

APN setings for my newly flashed Cappy

So, the CM10.1 flash is running perfectly! I like to give a big thanks to all those who helped. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
However, before the flash I was able to get 3G running a Straight Talk SIM card. At the moment, the best I can do is Edge. Straight Talk offers the following settings, which are the same as I had in 2.3.5:
Name : Straight Talk
APN : att.mvno
Proxy : Left Blank
Port : Left Blank
User name : Left Blank
Password : Left Blank
Server : Left Blank
MMSC : http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy : proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
MMS port : 80
MCC : 310
MNC : 410
Authentication type : Left Blank
APN type : default,supl,mms
So why no 3G? Even when I flashed back to stock, it instantly gave me 3G. Any ideas?
Courtney

Looks like a lot of people have checked out this post, but no one has answered. Well, I figured it out and thought I'd share so everyone knows:
Firstly, I had to make sure the the APNs were right. I double checked that with Straight Talk, which they were correct. Next, I went to phone and typed in *#*#4636#*#* to access the advanced phone setup options. I then switched it from "unknown" to "LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)." This kicked it into HSDPA, which is better than 3G, so I'm more than thrilled at my new setup! I never got H mode in 2.3.5. It's like having a new phone!
Thanks again to everyone who helped me out!
Courtney

I think a lot of people, myself included, browse these forums in order to gain more knowledge about our devices and android in general. Not everyone, myself included, have the experience and/or knowledge necessary to help other users solve their issues. That being said, thank you for posting your results so that other users may learn from your experience. Glad you got it figured out. Edge is a slow beast! I know. It's all that's available in my area running a T-Mobile sim in my cappy.

Nice work, Courtney.
Thanks for sharing your progress.
By the way, there settings in CM10.1 settings menus that let you control the hsupa, hsdpa, 2G options.
Settings, Data, more is where you can toggle 2G only to save battery.
Settings, advanced settings is where you will find the radio mode settings.

T-Mobile APN issue/Question

The only thing I manually added and as shown - currently selected is the "Fix" - APN to enable Wi-Fi MMS pic send/receive which seems to work fine as found in another thread in these forums.
Here is my question. Should ALL these APN's be in my phone as follows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I am on a ROM and not sure if they came with it or I somehow got them in otherwise.
One of the reason's I ask is that my girlfriend's T-Mobile Avant first off, only has ONE T-Mobile APN period in this section.
2nd reason is she is complaining of getting duplicate texts from my phone (both text & MMS pic sends) from time to time so I am wondering if this is due to having so many APN's as noted in above screenshot?
Thanks

Pic is not showing

Bump!
I'm bumping this cause I am interested in the answer too. I think my WiFi Calling is messing up...

Pic still not showing and since op never came back he probably figured out his rom was the issue.. As Tmobile stayed many times mms over WiFi will only work over WiFi calling. If ur trying to say it still sends it cause it sending thru mobile data still.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Apologize as I have no idea what happened to the pic from my OP. I will check my phone but believe I have since deleted it. Sure it's in my email somewhere as I usually send it to myself after taking a screenshot from one gmail account to the other.
Anyhow, I have resolved my issue by moving on to a different ROM. I will gladly share my current APN if helpful to anyone.
Still having issues with T-Mobile's Network itself, a whole different story, but can confirm that I have "WiFi Calling" & "MMS over WiFi" functional now. :good:

Go to the apn setup, do a reset to default on the apns, then a couple of tmo apn will show up, next, use the one that works best for you, and simply remove the others.
Good luck!

Question QR Code Scanning Shortcut on Pixel 7 shows as unavailable

Hi all,
New member of XDA here. I've got a Pixel 7 running Android 13 on the December Patch (TQ1A.221205.011) without Android System Intelligence (mentioning just in case) and the QR Code in the quick settings panel is greyed out.
I'm able to scan codes from the camera app but I want to do it from the quick settings since it's quicker for me. I've already the following:
Tried re-installing Android System Intelligence asssuming that was the cause but that didn't change anything,
Removed the Shortcut and added it again,
Rebooted my Phone,
Searched for updates for Google Lens or Camera, there was none, and
Disabled camera access and re-enabled it.
But none of these sorted the issue out. Does anyone know what the cause could be and how to fix it?

I can not duplicate the issue but, I see it has been reported by others on different Pixel(s).
No one who had the issue seems to have found (or posted) a fix.
One example..
Pixel Phone Help (Community) - Link

Not sure if it will help but, I would try..
1. Remove QR from the quick launch.
2. Then clear cache and data for both camera and lens.
3. Reboot just to be safe, and then add QR back to the quick launch.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Seems kinda Cheesy but, you could try booting into SafeMode as was suggested in the above Help thread.

Cheers.
PS.
If you get it working...
Please make a post explaining how you did it.

Thanks for the help, though it hasn't solved the problem sadly.
