[VIDEO] Possible WIFI Fix for Cyanogenmod Android on HP Touchpad! - TouchPad General

This may or may not be a way to fix some of the issues we have been having for our Cyanogenmod Android on the HP Touchpad. This is not a guaranteed fix, but several people (including me) have found this to be beneficial.
THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL FULL FIX!!!!
I do not promise anything, but this is definitely worth a shot.

So far so good haven't been disconnected since I followed ur suggestions. About 5hrs ago. Thank you.

I never really had a problem with this but I encountered a slight bug when changing the name.
Lets say I wanted the name to be "Touchpad". I would type a "t", but when I hit "o" it would have "tto". If I went on to the "u" it would say "ttotou".
Very strange. I just made the name "ttp".

Mines only gotten worse since this...no internet.

That likely had nothign to do with the wifi stuff.. it happens with the keyboard text entry sometimes.. its happened in several places for me. annoying as ****
edit: nevermind. reproducable in that place for me. bet you are using swype though.. happens for me in swype in some places sometimes... so try a different keyboard

Thank you sir worked great for me!

[Q] Touchscreen problem

Hi all! I have a brand new LG Optimus One, but I think it has a problem. When I tap on the screen or write a message and tap on one letter, sometimes the screen respond 2-3 or more taps (want to write "word", but when i pres the "D" it goes "wordddd". Does anyone have the same problem or? Thanks a lot!
P.s. Sorry for my poor english
Same here..
I have the same problem too but i think it happens more often with gingerbread keyboard. The lg keyboard lags little more than default android keyboard. I think I'll stick with swype for now

Can it be something with the stock protection foil?
Or may be i must go to the shop and return it
I removed the foil and still has the issue. I haven't tried other keyboards. Using the default LG Keyboard.

I am with the default keyboard too. Its very annoying, when the vibration is ON and when i just touch a letter...it's vibrating for 2-3 seconds.. Today i will try to go to the mobile shop and i will write after my visiting there.
Same here, I believe this is normal behavior, you have to remember that this phone has an entry level touch screen, so you can't except much from it. There are other problems with the keyboards as well related to touch. For example, in the Gingerbread keyboard you can do proper multi-chorded inputs (aka pressing shift + a character to capitalize the character) because of the touch screen quality. Same for pinch to zoom problems.
Download a touch screen test app to see what's really going on and why some things just don't work the way you expect. If you want better touch screen response you should've bought a more expensive phone. I'm happy with my Optimus One since I knew that this is a budget phone and that you can't have high expectations. That said, and knowing how much I paid for it new and unlocked (180€) I'm quite impressed with it's quality.

I am happy with my phone too! But when other people say, that they have no problems, what must i think about? I am from Bulgaria and here 180$ are not little money
So i went to the market and i played with the sample... It has the same "problem" )) So now I think, that all of this is because of my big fingers and "don't know how to touch" This is my first touchscreen phone and may be this is why i woried about. So thanks all for the answers, now i am a bit more calm! Great wishes for the NEW YEAR to all! Bye!
No problems with original android keyboard same as with SmartKeyboard Pro
Try to change to a different type of keyboard first and change back maybe after about 2-3 mins.
same problem
Hello folks!!
I have the same ptoblem with my touchscreen but only when i plug the usb cable to charge ...any solution?
it happens because of the touch screen lag bug. there is too much cpu usage when the touch screen is tapped.
that is why when you try to type fast using lg or android keyboard you will experience such problems.
this problem is not there with swype since you don't have to tap on the keys to type.
there is a touch screen bug fix and that will solve the problem.
I wish optimus one didn't have so many problems.

Getting really sick of my atrix switching back to my N1 until something better comes.

ok i dont even know where to start... I dont usuallypost that many threads *****ing and complaining about my phone.. but enough is enough...
I haven't rooted...(well I did a while ago BUT)... I took part in that beta testing update crap so it unrooted me.. but these problems I have been having are since the LAST "update" which was well over two months ago now (I THINK)...
1st problem I am having is randomly I cannot input text into ANY thing on the phone... I am using smart keyboard pro.. but even when i change input methods it still does not register anything i am typing... in fact when i switch the phone to landscape mode the text box goes dark grey...
2nd also when this happens... nothing will happen when i attempt to make a phone call... i click the name .. nothing happens.. i go into dialer... i cant input the number i try other methods of dialing out nothing happens....
those are the two biggest problems I have as I need to communicate with my clients all day long i cannot have this type of inconsistency.
ohh and also the finger print scanner just plain doesn't work when i go through the process of setting it up.. it wont even register the "test" swipes... its like its broken all together.... any one else having ANY of these problems?? please help me
I've never had any of those problems ever and I've had my atrix since launch date. Maybe you have a deffective device call and see if your provider will do anything about.

to be honest... and i know it sounds pretty stupid.. but... i really dont know how to flash the sbf... i know what it is followed the thread on it when it first came out... but never put the effort into figuring out how to actually do it... and right now i just don't have the time to sit down and do that.... (lazy.. it is what it is) but that could very well fix my problem i guess right... ugghh
ok
good luck sell me ur atrix I need a second one for testing purposes
If you feel adventurous enough, try disassembling the device and reseating the LCD/digitizer cable.
I had an issue with a Samsung galaxy s vibrant about a month ago that would register touch inputs when it was just sitting on the table. I did what I suggested above and the problem was solved.

So you cant input any text and you cant make any phone calls. You know what sbf is youve seen the thread and realize that it could fix the problem but your admitedly too lazy to do it. Okay, thanks for sharing!

LOL! I mean, why don't u just go back to it and making useless comparisons?
If you took some time to read, your problem would already be solved.
1. Your digitalizer may not be working well. Guarantee will cover this.
2. SBF from scratch to discard a software issue.
None of the issues you are experiencing is related to the phone being a dual-core mobile or not.
I've been able to solve some problems by reading and taking the advice from the forums.
If your Atrix looks ****ty, it's not on it. Mine shines!
Waste of forum space!
Warranty!
Bye!
Don't let the door hit you....
Err... you have a broken phone, bro. There are lots of bugs with the Atrix but yours is simply a broken phone.
Hell if you want to complain about a phone, give me it. Ill put the work into fixing it and love it. >.< this phone sucks.

C'mon man, flashing an SBF is simple! The instructions on XDA are very detailed. I am a lifelong Mac user, and even I figured out how to flash an SBF via Windows. It would not take more than a couple hours to download all the stuff you need, and re-flash an SBF. What's your build number now?

What are you even doing in this forum? My Aria is sitting in the box on the floor.
Swifted from my Atrix.
I've come across the keyboard input bug with alternate keyboards before.
SBF your phone, there's plenty of guides available how to do this, or you can download the moto update tool from their website.
Well as they say on WOW and other MMORPG...
Can I have your stuff??

I bought this app a couple of days ago and it hasn't worked once for me. The first day, whenever I tried to browse or search for a forum, it would say "retrieving from server" and just get stuck there. I thought they were just having server issues but I'm getting the same thing today.
Tried emailing the developer but haven't received a response back. Is anyone else having this problem?

I had this in the past, it all seems to have cleared up a few months ago (while on my O.G. Evo.)
right now though I'm getting a new issue. Whenever looking at a thread with a long 1st post (like anything pertaining to a ROM release, or explaining how to install a theme or something.) anywhere from 3-10 posts immediately following that are blank. when I tap on one of these blank posts the app FC's. viewing from a web browser shows the posts properly, but on tapatalk, as of a couple days ago it's blank...
annoying to say the least.

Yep, my Tapa does this sammmme thing too. It'll have TONS of blank posts after the OP post and anytime I touch the blank ones, I get an FC. I also have the issues with the server sometimes too. I just refresh it until it loads and that makes it work. Annoying at best, but sometimes it works just fine.
Update is better, but with BBC code enabled, links don't work. Only issue and now we can like or thank post.
Edit: actually, all is now working.

I'm getting those same issues too. Also, it seems like I get a lot of double posts from people back to back as well. Did the clear data trick and it seems to help for a couple of days.
And LOL at the 28k Sprint 3G network comment. I can't get over a 100k just about anywhere in town, much less any 4G coverage. I swear I think they're throttling it just to get everybody used to using wifi.
I paid for Tapatalk, and have used it a lot in the past. However, it sucks now, and I consider it completely unusable. I am getting all these crazy issues lately as well, yet it worked fine last month.
Another thing i have never understood:
I, for one, have no idea what it means to 'enable BBC code', or what the '3G compatibility mode' actually does.. Apparently Tapatalk doesn't want me to know either, because there's no documentation ANYWHERE in the app, or on their website that explains it. Is it some big effing secret? I'm done with it, using regular XDA app instead.

I think the "enable BBC code" means you'll be able to understand cheeky British comedy shows and obscure documentaries.
Actually, you're right, it's worthless because I thought it meant things like smilies would show up, but I see nothing but :smileycode: on most of them, and forget any of the animated ones on other forums.

Need for speed: Hot Pursuit

Hey everyone. I recently brought the NFS: HP and i really like the game so far, but. Lol it runs great minus a few FC I had right after I installed it. I was wondering though has anyone came up with maybe a button mapping for sixaxis? Thanks in advance.

Isn't it a tilt only game ? Couldn't see anywhere to change it to onscreen controls so have kinda ignored it since
I have tried a lot of versions but cant seem to get the game working, as soon as the game starts the car takes a hard right and keeps turning which is of course the infamous steering issue. I cant seem to get it working. Anyone have any ideas? Im quite desperate to play this one.
Thread died. Shame.

Sorry, I never noticed this thread before...
Need For Speed works fine for me, didn't do anything special, just installed it and it worked.
Have you tried a full uninstall and re-install of the game? (I'm guessing yes, but not sure what else to suggest).
To be honest, I haven't played it in a while, so I'm not 100% sure it's currently working, but it was for sure. I'll definitely give it a whirl when I get home tonight and let you know.... from there we can see if we can figure out any differences.

[Q] Stock LG Keyboard

Anyone one having issues with the stock LG keyboard and phantom characters on right side of screen? ie a P produces an O? Mine does not do it all the time and when it does a phone restart seems to fix it for awhile.

I wound up exchanging my G3 for an S5, but it's funny you mention that because I occasionally had the same problem. I figured I was just being extra sloppy when I was typing - if I was extra-extra careful I could still get the intended letter...
Not sure if I was fat fingering it and it's just a coincidence, but since I no longer have my G3 I can't really test it.

When its acting up I can actually press the P and see the O highlight in depress animation....frustrating. ...
I had this happen to me when typing in the stock message app. Every time I would type something it would only do numbers. I found when this happens if you switch from lg to swype and back with in the app it fixed it.
I've been trying out this keyboard. I like it much more than I thought I would, especially coming from SwiftKey.
I use Google KB. Can't type for chit using LG KB though I tried to like it
