i have no use for bluetooth on my phone. but under battery use, its always listed using the battery. i would like to know how to completely disable it...thanx
Try going into settings>bluetooth>off. May be different depending on your version of Android. What phone/Rom are you using?
have tried the obvious.i have an htc aria running froyo 2.2.i also have brcmbluetooth frozen thru TB.have searched all over trying to find this out......

I really hope that there isn't a thread that answers this. If there is, I couldn't find one.
I flashed CM6.1 a few days ago, and I've found most of the fixes to my problems. I found the marketplace app in the google apps zip, I found the visual voicemail and sprint navigation apks, and I even found how to semi-sync facebook apps as well.
For the life of me, I can't get Flash 10.1 and Bluetooth working. I found the apk for flash and tried to install it. It crashes my phone back to the Cyanogen loading screen, and that's it. Whenever I go to m.flash.com, it says "the requested file cannot be found" or something along this lines. But Bluetooth is the big issue, I need it for my work. When I turn on bluetooth, it usually doesn't find my Jabra Extreme headset at all. Once in a while, it finds it, but it says "unable to pair with device". I have tried connecting it through the Bluetooth File Transfer app as well. Nothing.
Is there some kind of zip I can flash to make either of these things work for me? (especially the bluetooth) Thank you very much!
Come on, guys, one of you must know something about this....
I would go to your.phones forums and cynogens forums on their website to ask. You might get a quicker answer there.

Your Hero shouldn't have Flash 10.1 working anyway....
Oh and maybe flash a new rom to fix the bluetooth
6.1 broke my BT as well. Try 6.0 RC1 and see if that works--that's the last that worked for me. They switched to a new BT stack after 6.0 RC1 which I think is the culprit for some of us.
CM6.1 is running FroYo which may not be compatible all the way yet with your device. Unless 6.1.1 is out for your Hero yet, it might be best to stick with 6.0.
I use car panel for navigation occasionally. Lately it just spins waiting for location. It's searching right now and doesn't look like it will work again. Tried it earlier today never did connect.
I don't take phone updates. Have 2.2 rooted stock roms and kernel but it's been fine till lately. Little slow connectiong but not like now.
Any ideas?
Try updating Profile and PRL, then reboot. Also, you might want to try turning on WiFi. It helps GPS lock quicker.
I had the exact same problem with 2.3.3 OTA, and so does the only other person I know with a Shift. It seems to be a consistent problem.
I can give you two solutions.
a. Use Telenav instead of Google Nav. I've never experienced any problems with Telenav, and it comes pre-installed on every Sprint smart phone and feature phone so I was already familiar with it. (Non-android phones it's called "Sprint Navigation Powered by Telenav")
b. Root, install Clockwork Mod, then install another ROM. Google Nav is actually a great program, and I like it better than Telenav, but it just doesn't work well on the factory ROM for whatever reason. I installed CM7-nightly build 179 last night, and Google Nav now works like a dream. (You have to do some digging and install all the google apps seperately) As an added bonus, when you install the full suit of google apps available, you get a much better car panel than the SenseUI car panel. You can set it to come on automatically when your phone connects to the BT in your car, and you can customize the launchers instead of being stuck with the layout HTC gives you.
Hi All,
Having a strange issue with my Sensation wheras the WiFi is switching itself on at night.
Normally I will switch it off using the 'power bar' when I go to bed and then switch it back on when I wake up but since the Twitter update (on Orange which seems to have updated my market as well) it comes on by itself. If I turn it off again it stays off.
I know that both nights the phone has been about 7% battery and is in power save mode but this doesn't switch the WiFi off, just the sync. I then press the WiFi off and plug it into the mains.
Any ideas on why this is happeneing and if it is a known bug? Also if there is a way to fix it?
Thanks
Darren
Details??
Is your phone S-OFF?? rooted? If so, which ROM are you using? Please post all the details.
I had this bug twice with ICS, ma battery starts screaming at 21% while it was 80% just 2 hours before,it was wifi that was ON by itself

Sorry, standard Orange ROM, not rooted or anything
Android 2.3.4
Sense 3.0
Software 1.50.61.1
Kernel 2.6.35.13-gle13373
Baseband 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
Seems to only have done it since the twitter update on saturday which also updated my marketplace.

Hi,
I have the same problem. In my case, I am using ICS4.0.3 on my Telstra HTC Velocity (rooted but stock ROM ).
I think it might be Juice Defender , but I'll confirm that in couple of days time.
I have used it once, and uninstalled it, but I think it might have left behind the settings (network scheduled to be turned on at night to sync).
I installed it again, and by default that option was turned on. I have now turned it off and uninstalled it again.
I shall let you know the outcome soon
i have this issue on my previous ARHD 6.6.0
i tried to flash with different kernel,it wont fix
all i do is flashed to New leedroid 7.3.0 the issue gone.
So i assume is ROM problem.not quite sure about this.
I think it was a problem with a specific base that was used (either in the stock or making the rom),
I had it on IC5.2 I think, but then updated my rom and it went away, it presented itself on all the roms that used that base (I believe) it should be gone now with the updated base that was released. Not sure of the specifics and version numbers, maybe a dev can provide if needed, but the updates shouldn't have that issue anymore
First: Is it just me, or is Google Maps constantly running in the background? Not only is it constantly running, but there seems to be three different instances of it running in my background. Every time I open TasKiller, there's always 3 icons for Maps.
Second: Normally my wifi works, but when I'm at school I have issues with it. My school's wifi requires that I set the 'Phase 2 authentication' to "MSCHAPV2," but when I do that, it automatically resets it to default (which is no phase 2 authentication). I've tried all of the other options for Phase 2 authentication, and every time I close the wifi options, it's back to the default option. Should I use logcat for this?
Maps runs in the background no matter what ROM you're on.

The maps always running issue can be solved by using an app such as autostarts.

I figured that it would start on it's own no matter what, but why are there three instances of it? Nevertheless, I'll try out Autostarts to have it stop coming up on its own.
Does anyone have an idea about the wifi issue?

I created a bogus wifi setup on the phone & I see the same issue; it defaults the Phase 2 authentication back to "None". I am not on Valhalla Black, either. I'm on stock 2.3.6 with bhndven's SMS kernel (3.1) so I think we're on the same kernel.
I don't want to say the kernel is the issue, though. Maybe someone else on here that is on a different kernel can try to create a wifi connection on their phone?
I'll wipe mine later and flash straight stock & see if I have the same issue. Might just be a 2.3.6 bug.

It's not anything bhundven has done to the kernel. Just tried it on my wife's phone and it's completely stock and I get the same results as you guys. After googling the issue it looks like most people were having a problem after upgrading to GB 2.3.4 and up. It looks like it goes further than our device.

Thanks for saving me some time Now the question is why.....
I wonder if its a problem with the certificates that are installed. Maybe they don't play nicely with Android?
Thanks guys for the responses at least now I know it's not just my phone. I'm visiting a friend away from home at the moment so I can't take any action right now, but once I get home, i'll try to google this a bit and see if I can find a solution.

My adventures with the HTC One S just dont seem to end. Here is a short history:
First thing I did when I got the phone was flash over CM9 as I dont like Sense
All was good until the home button issue popped up, this was at that time my only issue and sync worked just fine
I flashed over CM10 when it was stable enough, this didnt fix the home button issue though
I then flashed over the new RUU with radio 2.21 and directly after that CM10 again (I still dont like Sense)
After the first flash I had a lot of grey signal bars (either bad signal or no connection with Google servers) so I flashed CM10 again.
The signal bars where blue after that and the new radio (2.21) has improved the signal a lot and therefor minimizing the home button issue
But since the new radio I'm experiencing a new problem, just as much annoying. My phone wont sync when the screen is off or wont sync at all unless I do it manually.
This is what I have tried so far:
First cleaned cache from Gmail, Google Services Framework and Market -> no fix
Rebooted the phone with airplane mode on and enabling data connection afterwards -> no fix
Factory reset from recovery, flash CM10 again and restore apps with TB -> no fix
Factory reset from recovery, flash CM10 again and no restore of apps but just vanilla CM10 -> no fix
I have ran out of options so I could use some help here. Why are emails not pushed to my phone when the screen is off?
I had all kinds of sync issues with that radio until I flashed Trickdroid 7.1 which is built off the base which included that radio. Can't figure out how, but it's like they work best together though my best guess is that TD just maintains more free memory, so whatever process syncs the phone doesn't get killed. You can even desense TD as part of the tweak pack if you want to try it

Hmmm ... thanx for this info. I hoped the problem was not related to the radio and I missed something stupid. When I have some time I'll make a nandroid backup of CM10 and will give Trickdroid 7.1 a go, see if it fixes things.
Another solution I was thinking of was buying Tasker and schedule a sync job. When set up right it might even save me some battery juice.

I tried Trickdroid 7.1 today but spent no longer then 5 minutes on this ROM. Although I selected all options of going back to stock and removing anything related to Sense in the Trickdroid Tweaks it was no where near the AOSP feeling I like best. So I didnt like Trickdroid at all.
Didnt properly test the syncing but in the one test I did I received my email instantly. So I guess there is indeed a problem with the new radio and CM10. I'll report this in the CM10 support thread.
