just switched from HTC inspire to the infuse. I rooted my infuse the very first day. My problem is that it will not auto connect to remembered wifi specially my home wifi. I have to restart the phone all the time. Another problem is that my yahoo email doesnt sync right away with my phone. Last one I got was at 11:37PM and i had a few that came in overnight. Unlike my inspire once the email was rcvd it will also sync with my inspire
any suggestions?
Thanks
I just switch off the wifi and turn it back on..... No need to restart the phone i guess... Yes, not all times it connects automatically...

You are using the included client called "Email" ?
while the program is open, try clicking the menu button, then choose "account settings" and check out "check email frequency" and "email notifications"
Wifi: Have you played around with going to Settings: "wireless and network" / "wifi settings"
This is a common bug found on the Infuse. Everyone I've talked to has the same problem. Once the Wifi connection has been established, it won't be able to connect to another router. What you can do to solve the problem is to turn the wifi on and then turn it back on. This way, you can turn the wifi off when you're not using the phone and it'll save you battery too. Hope that helps!
What you need to do is hard reset your phones

That's horrible advice, when turning off wifi and turning it back on is more than sufficient.
It seems to be a fundamental power management problem with our wifi chipset that seems to affect EVERY device I've used with said chipset. My Galaxy Tab 10.1 has the same problem.
Screw Broadcom. I hate them.

Try "forgetting" your home connection and then connect to it again.
I only experienced that problem once and found that it was actually my router not my phone.

I tried that and I still have to refresh everytime I open my email. Do they have any widget just like the HTC inspire email client?
Is there a way to stream netflix and play it on your tv?

The native email app is horrible. I had the same issues and installed Kaiten mail. Its worked flawlessly for my yahoo and gmail accts.
To stream netflix, just use your hdmi adapter. then set your usb settings to media player. It will streams just fine. I do this all the time and it works great.

LOL. I went to At&T earlier and the guy told me that my LED indicators are not working so he told me to call Amazon. I called Amazon and they sent me a new one.
I'm just reading the manual now and it is not a LED indicator its actually a proximity sensor lol.
Is there any way to change the primary shortcut contents?

For some reason my wife doesn't like my headboard buzzing & chiming all night long whenever I receive an E-mail. As I only have a cell & no land line I need my phone to ring during the night if I get a call, but want to mute everything else. For now I disabled E-mail notifications, but that's a pain to turn on and off ever morning/night.
On my old Windows Mobile AT&T Fuze I just set Active Sync to only sync during the daytime, so that effectively muted it at night.
Anybody have any thoughts?
I've got a new AT&T Samsung Captivate freshly rooted, although i'd imagine this is more of a generic Android question.
I had the exact same issue and my solution was to use Timeriffic and APNDroid to automatically turn off my data connection at night and turn it back on in the morning. Those are both free apps and they're both in the market. Just note the funky spelling on Timeriffic.
HTH,
Billy

Sound Manager in the market will allow you to turn off email notifications and leave the ringer on for phone calls.
Try AudioManager as well.

Thank you very much for using AND suggesting Timeriffic. If you have any feedback we are listening. Thanks again.
On my Captivate I'm using "Good Night!". Mine is set so that only phone calls come thru and nothing else notifies audibly. You can pick the hours and even say what numbers you want to come through.
Hi,
I have a friend that has the touchpad and she set up a few e-mails on it. When she switches between wireless networks (like home to work, etc) e-mail will no longer sync unless she completely reboots the tablet. We've tried throwing away the e-mail app (whatever that is where you slide the app up to close it) and we tried putting it into airplane mode and back and nothing seems to work. Any ideas? Fixes?

Do you mean the stock email app? (not that I have used any other!)
I have several accounts set up in mine and they work flawlessly so far.
You mention restarting the tablet, did you try just a Luna restart?
Is there a difference between the networks? Is one open and the other WPA2 or something?
I have seen something similar when going from one network to another, where the wifi has to be switched off and on to flush the settings for the network.

This problem seems to have been around for 2 years now, but I haven't found any resolution online.
Using the "email" app on my Motorola Photon (the one with a @ inside an envelope)...I constantly get a "connection error". This is configured for gmail.
Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. It seems to be a problem regardless of whether I'm on wifi or 3G. I have Sprint, if that matters.
I don't know what's going on. The email app is configured to use iMap push.
Should I set it for pop email server instead, and just tell it to poll the server every hour?
Thanks.

I''ve had a similar issue with my boyfriend's phone. All I did was uninstall all the updates for the app, reset the phone, and then redownload the updates for the app. Seems to keep it working at least for a while.

So I have a few weird albums in my Gallery app. I have one that says Mike-PC and has nothing in it. I also have a directv2pc album that popped up after I downloaded the Directv app. I have deleted the Directv app and it's still there. I also went into the applications-gallery and cleared cache but those two folders are still there.
If I turn my Wifi off they disappear though, weird!!!
Any suggestions on how to get rid of them?? It's driving me friggin nuts!!!
Thanks
The computer you have called Mike-pc is set up to share files over a network like a media server. Under the network connection setting on that pc you need to turn this off. (I have a computer set up to do this) The phone and pc are connected via your home network that is why when you turn WiFi off the album is gone.
As for the one associated with the app I'm am not sure because I don't have it. I would assume there is possibly some setting you can change. Otherwise I'm not sure.

the directv2pc is also a media server that is being broadcast by your Directv DVR which is also connected to your home network. Both are network devices that your phone sees on your home wireless network
Thanks for the responses. Ill look on my PC to change those settings. I did look on my directv settings and didn't see anything.
Its not a huge deal but just annoying when I look at pics.
I've never had this happen with any other of my phones which is why it stumped me.

Did anyone figure out how to delete the Directv albums from the gallery?
I have three DTV dvrs and it is annoying to see those three albums in the gallery.
Bump anyone know how to get rid of these....

I know it sounds strange, but its because the date and time aren't set correctly. Even if it's one minute off it'll cause issues. It's something to do with security; firewall will block some internet programs.
I set it to match internet time, then set it to auto update and it's been fine ever since.

if you want to change the settings of time's auto updating, go to Control Panel>Clock, Language and Region>Date and time>Internet Time (tab)> Change Settings there.. You must have checked the "Sychronise with an Internet time server" and the server must be "time.windows.com", then click "Update Now "and "Ok".
This will set your time auto update.
thanks for that,i did all that facebook app still no good,no content or news feed,just a blank page although i am logged in,never mind i can still access facebook through my browser,once again thanks
