Idle mode - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My data connection goes into idle mode if I don't use it and stops downloads... How can I prevent it??

I guess he meant 'idle'.
About the question, if its in Wi-Fi there is an option to "Keep Wifi On during sleep". Check whether an option like that exists in 2G/3G data connection settings. AFAIK, the data connection would be always live, and I do doubt whether an option for the same exists.

Sorry for the spelling...but it's not on wifi..It's on data connection and it stops send receive if I don't use it actively and hence downloads stop

Wth? Keypad?

I downloaded a data monitor and it shows that the keypad is always using data, even when not in use.
Why is that?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
um dude, why would your keypad require data in the first place??
turn off your data use and see if you can still use it
go to settings---applications------running services------forcestop

Mine will stay on, but i dont know the password...and all other apps wont tether, going to probably take some app removal and kernal tweaks.
i think you can change

That could be the problem, you may need to freeze the tethering manager .apk in titanium backup before attempting to tether. Terry that first then let us know if that worked.

there is no tethering manager on ICS. and i can confirm that freezing tetheringprovisions results in a crash

Tethering provision needs to be defrosted or settings will fc. The problem is in ultracfg.apk, check a skyrocket ics thread

Browser dropping signal

Have found when using the s3 browser it freezes and will not work until I reboot the phone. Anyone have a solution for this. I am UK O2
Can't believe 99 views and not one comment . Hubby is sitting there with his S2 and no problems and mine keeps freezing. Must be a wifi thing any ideas?

Have altered wi-fi settings to no power save and will see how it goes. Have already changed browser to chrome and no difference.
Will flash only if I have to as Samsung are monitoring changes to this phone so may affect warranty in future.

Does the browser still freeze when using mobile data or just WiFi?

It is just on wi-fi. It has been fixed by changing the power save to off in the phone settings menu but have noticed the battery drain already so would like another option to try.

Anyone use VuTalk?

I bought g2 the next day it came out, and did not know this vutalk feature existed until yesterday while playing around with both of my and my girlfriend's g2.
Now we doodle around with this thing whenever we get a chance and me like it ;p
But the sad thing is i dont have any other people on my contact list that i can vutalk with except my girlfriend...
Anyone use this at all?

I would check it out but I don't know anyone else who has VuTalk. I think it is LG's version of Apple FaceTime. Right?

It gives you the ability to draw stuff you can share with the person you're talking to. I've personally disabled it, as it uses some RAM

Titanium Backup? How do I disable VuTALK?
Press menu in contacts, u'll see vutalk setting second from the bottom
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
To disable it (and you can do this without root) go into settings - general - apps - all and scroll all the way down to the bottom. You will find vutalk there. Press on it and disable it. And yes it will remain disabled even after reboot.

We are getting off-topic...but, i'll answer
Viber needs only a few KB/s (or MBs for calls) . Other apps need more ( i don't use and don't know about what's up)
It doesn't need an account. (for hangouts you need to have your friends gmail / fb needs ...fb accounts )
And you can do some funny staff. Draw/emoticons/sound clip
