We're all noobs at one point or another .

So are you good, is it workin? You should give hyc's new RIL a shot, but AFAIK the WorldPhone code isn't complete... so we're not quite there .

Things are working now, thank you very much for your response. I just got bored these couple of days, so I started to look at the android thing again. Things have moved along quite a bit since I last played with it, which is always a good sign. I know from previous experiences that notification LED is always on, and when the phone sleeps, it should be green to tell you that the phone is not draining battery. It seems to be the case here as the LED stays on all the time, however it stays orange all the time even when in sleep mode. Did I miss anything?

Glad GSM is workin for you now.

Orange = full wake

Green = full sleep

On WisTilt2's test kernels, there's a third state - blinking green = wakelock present - something preventing sleep in other words. adb, gps, etc will all generate wakelocks.

So if you're always solid orange, the phone isn't sleeping - at all. Make sure GPS is disabled, and there aren't any apps running wild.

AFter playing with it a little more, I finally noticed the blinking green you're talking about. I will try to turn off everything e.g. gps, background syncing. and see if that helps with the situation.

I do have a new problem now. My phone can't receive cell signal after I rebooted. The phone is showing no service. I don't know what is changed between when it worked and now. Maybe you know a fix to this if not, I can just reinstall everything again.

Well there is a bug in the newer kernels that only effects CDMA devices being used as GSM.

Basically when the screen turns off, the GSM radio turns off with it. WisTilt2 has a potential fix, but I need someone to test it.

However, if the radio appears off when the screen is on? That's an entirely different issue, and I'd check the normal things we already went over...

Hi arrrghhh
My phone is tp2 verizon, i'm using newest build 25-3 with gsm network.
- The first thing i meet is when the phone wakeup(orange led) it has signal but very weak(not in winmo with the same place), but when the phone turn into sleep mode and wake up again it show no service.
- The second thing is the battery draining quickly.
I don't know this is a bug or not.
Do you have any advice for me?
Thanks.

##Edit:
- Right now, my phone can receive signal from operator (GSM) when it wake, but when it's going to deep sleep and wake up after that, i noticed that i show "no service" and after few seconds it back to normal.
I guess that i will not receive any call or sms when it's sleep mode.
I will test with my friend and will update soon.
Thanks

Use kernel 1253 to avoid this bug.

For battery draining, make sure the phone is going into deep sleep correctly (solid green LED).

Is this still an issue? Only post that seemed relevant with a search.


Basically my issue is once I reboot my phone I have to place a call before I can receive an incoming call. I remember in the older versions you had to place a call in windows but I thought that was resolved.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think that's still an issue, but I have no way to confirm.

I also don't know what you're talking about with having to make a call before you can receive one...
