BTFON - HTC LEGEND.

Hi.
I have been using Bt Fon on my mobile phone for about six months without any problem at all. I mainly use it at home using my bt home hub but for the past week my mobile phone says obtaining ip address from btfon but it will not connect. I also tried the btfon app but this just says connecting...... then not connected to a network. Im not very techy so any help in English would be welcome.

I have the same problem with an HTC WildFire.  Worked perfect for 12 months, then recently I noticed the battery was only lasting half a day...  After removing several apps, it was still the same... except I suddenly noticed the battery drain only occured when I was at home.  (anyway to cut a long story short) The reason my battery is draining so quickly is because it is constantly trying to connect to my home hub but never manages to obtain an IP address.  I tested the phone on a different WiFi network to confirm it was not the phone and it works fine.  
I checked my router and low and behold, I received a firmware update on the 05/05/11, the same time I started getting the problems.
So.....  can anyone shed any light? maybe a BT representative can offer some advice?
I have reset the router several times, rebuilt the DHCP lease pool and set the lease time to 21 days (max setting) 
Just ANOTHER problem I have with BT and their broadband!

  • Cant install AIR for Android on HTC Legend

    Is Air for android compatible with the HTC Legend?
    I have a legend running Android 2.2, but the market will not allow me to install the app. I thought it might be a temporary error so I downloaded an APK from the web, it fails and says cannot install.
    The legend plays flash content in 2.2, so i cant see why AIR wouldnt be supported?

    Hi Chris,
    I also have an HTC Legend, and I'm trying to make some tutorials about publishing from Flash Builder to Android.
    I've notice this also, and I must say, it's a complete deception that AIR cannot support this phone, and certainly it seems that upgrading to the Android 2.2 was a bad option, since I defenitly was able to make a simple flash game, and some other exeperiments, and got them to work with AIR when this phone had Android 2.1
    If it runs on Android 2.1, maybe it was a an upgrade that make AIR incompatible with this device on Android 2.2. Is there any way of running it, maybe forcing to install a AIR version that works.
    I was starting to program on Flash Builder, and experimenting on my Legend, but now I stumbled on this.
    Thanks,
    Leonel

  • Hi, I have HTC Legend on Android 2.2. I just can't download Firefox on my phone, what should I do to get Firefox on my phone?

    Hi, I have HTC Legend on Android 2.2. I just can't download Firefox on my phone, because after scanning the QR code and clicking on the link "download for Android" there appears a "Not found" mistake window which informs me that requested file has not been found. What should I do to get Firefox mobile on my phone? Thanks in advance.

    So its really useful that you guys do NOT mention this in the linked sys req page:http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/platforms/
    but in the deep in the system hidden wiki page. Please change that! So much people try to download FF mobile beta and have no clue why they cant even download it.

  • Installing Air 2.6 on HTC Legend - Froyo 2.2

    This is a duplicate post but I think this is a better place to post this.
    I have downloaded Air 2.6 SDK and copied runtimes\air\android\device\Runtime.apk to my HTC Legend and used Astro to install it but it displays an error message "Application not installed"
    Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ?

    The minimum requirements for AIR Android are mentioned below
    Android devices
    VGA: Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 550MHz App Processor with Neon for A8 only; Hardware Vector FPU
    WVGA: Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 800MHz App Processor; Hardware Vector FPU
    Google Android™ 2.2 or later
    256MB of RAM
    You can also find the system requirements for various platforms at http://www.adobe.com/products/air/systemreqs/
    AIR 2.7 doesnot support ARM v6.

  • Fennec not opening at all in my HTC Legend (Android 2.1)

    Installation of Fennec Alpha was smooth; after downloading the apk file from this [http://firefox.com/m/alpha site]. My HTC Legend has 2.1 version of Android which reported the installation to be successful. I could see an icon also in the program list. However, on click of the icon, a blank black screen opens with a title bar named Fennec, but closes just after two seconds. No error is being reported by the application or by the OS. I even uninstalled and re-installed the browser to check again, but am seeing the same result.
    Has this browser been tested on a Legend smartphone by anyone?
    How to make it run on my phone?

    Sorry, Fennec Alpha does not run on phones with ARMv6 processors, like the HTC Legend.
    We have experimental nightly builds that you can try on the Legend, but please note they are not yet optimized for the Legend's processor or screen size:

  • HTC Legend does not meet the minimum system requirements for firefox.

    I have download firefox(Android) for HTC Legend. It had shown that this device does not meet the minimum system requirements for firefox. I want to know that what is the problem in this device. Actualy, Firefox has already downloaded in this device.

    See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android for system requirements, and an experimental version that might work on your phone.

  • Is Firefox out for HTC Legend with Froyo?

    I use a HTC Legend running on Android v2.2 (Froyo). I do find the application in Android market yet the app cant be installed on my device due to Compatible issues. Will there be a Firefox version sooner that supports HTC Legend?
    Please update me !

    Firefox does not support the processor that runs your phone. It does not have the necessary functionality to run Firefox well. Firefox requires devices with ARM CPUs that support the ARMv7 instruction set.

  • When entering Android market and searching for Firefox 4, I don't see the result I want. No FF4 app there. How come?? My phone: HTC Legend

    I see a lot of browser apps and ff app add-ons but not the FF4 app!

    Ooops, found one new Smart Collection rule: "Metadata Status". One. Want more.

  • CK-7W with Samsung or HTC android phone?

    Is CK-7W compatible with the android phones from HTC or Samsung (e.g. HTC Legend or Samsung Spica)?

    Well, be prepared for troubles. Although the basic function works, you should be aware of huge limitations (voice dialing)  and issues (echo). See /t5/Accessories-Car-Phones-and-Other/Nokia-CK-7W-a​nd-non-Nokia-phone/m-p/1072033#M19224

  • Updated - NEW BT FON App for mobile internet acces...

    Hi Everyone
    Some updated info to add to that below.  We've had a few people asking whether the app can be used on the iPad or Blackberry - i'm afraid the short answer is no - not at the moment but it is something we are actively working on.
    We launched the app initially only on Apple and Android, and we've had a fantastic response so far.  Over 70k downloads at this point, making it no. 7 in the Apple iStore downloads.  We've had lots of great feedback and we are working on developing the app further so we can bring it to you on other devices and operating systems.
    We'll keep you up to date with any new developments on this forum, so please keep checking back!
    Thx
    Kerry

    Find the nearest hotspot from their current location and look up other hotspots using Google Maps
    Get help and support through the FAQs loaded into the app
    How do I get it?
    The BT FON mobile application can be downloaded from the Android market or iPhone app store. It is compatible with iPhone 3Gs and 4, and Android phones such as the HTC Hero, HTC Desire, HTC Legend or Nexus One.
    Quick links:
    iPhone Users can download the application from: the app store or by typing  http://bit.ly/iPhoneBTFon into the iPhone’s browser

    Hi Guys,
    The ipod touch devices don't have GPS functionality and hence cannot automatically locate your position if it hasn't already got a connection. The mapping still works as long as you enter the location (postcode, street name etc); but will not work if you select "Choose a location to search>Your current location".
    There is no reason why the app won't work abroad.  A colleague at FON tried it successfully in Madrid. It will work with any BT FON/BT Openzone SSID.
    Cheers

  • Why is debugging an AIR for Android on device via USB so awful?

    I've used Flash 8, Flash Pro CS4, CS5, CS5.5, and now CS6 and I have to say when it comes to debugging it is absolutely the worst environment I've ever worked in. Over the years the number of times I've successfully debugged an application can be counted on one hand. Really, its that bad. Flash will crash or stop responding. I place a breakpoint in the code and Flash will either: A) Ignore it, B) "Breakpoint not set; No executable code at line ###" C) Crash and burn. D) breakpoint turns on but can never be turned off.
    Its infuriating and maddening. After this much time why can't Adobe make the debugger work?
    Frankly, because of this I have to write ALOT of trace statements into my code.
    Has Adobe just given up on the debugger in Flash Pro? As a developer should I be trying to convince my company  to switch over to Flash Builder?
    For example, right now I'm trying to debug an AIR for Android 3.4.0.2540 via USB on a Motorola Droid 2. I can publish and run in debug mode and see all my trace statements just fine. But I know the instant I need to try to set a breakpoint I'm doomed. Or if my code gets in a race condition like right now. The breakpoints in the new code I added were ignored (see B above) and I can find no options in the Debug menu to break into my app and observe what code it is currently executing. My only option is to end the debug session.
    Can anyone comment on debugging in Flash Builder vs. Flash Pro? Is it any better?
    Can anyone suggest a solid development environement with debugging that supports Actionscript 3 or can compile it to some other language or object code that would allow me to reliably debug code?
    I'm sorry for venting like this. I like Actionscript 3 and I even like Flash Pro until it comes to debugging. But at this point I really need to consider other options so I can get some work done.

    Hi Chris,
    I also have an HTC Legend, and I'm trying to make some tutorials about publishing from Flash Builder to Android.

  • Connecting Mobile Phone to HomeHub2

    For a year or so now I have had no problems connecting my HTC Legend phone to the internet. Now I cannot connect at all. The phone picks up the strong wireless signal, but the connection process stops at 'Obtaining address'. It's the same problem on the previous Hub. It isn't a phone problem - it connects to the internet via all other available wifis I've tried, including the Vodafone shop. It would seem to be a Hub fault. Help please!

    Assuming that you are trying to connect to your own home hub, as sometimes people have mistaken an adjacent home hub for their own.
    I guess you have entered the correct wireless key, checking that the it is identical in case and letter/number combination.
    The next thing to try is to change the wireless mode to B/G only, and select WPA only, and not WPA/WPA2.
    See if any of these help.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • N900 Vs. iphone

    I have been a die hard fan and user of Nokia since it launched 5110 in around 2000. Since then I have used almost all the top models from Nokia. The only phone I liked really were 6610 & E 71.
    I got N900 and try to convince myself eveyday that its the best phone or internet tablet I have ever used.
    But today it disappointed me very badly. My mate is a big fan of iphone and we always have argument which one is better. I always said N900. But today when he was with me I tried to open Many/all apps eg telephony, calendar etc. But it took tallest 30 sec to open any apps. And made me feel so embarrass. I discos from 3G , no apps running in background, but opening any apps taking so long is unacceptable, even after overclocking @ 900Mhz. I have used the iphone 3GS and its not bad at all. I know its made my apps but this is what we want afterall. isn't it. An app which can show a timetable of train/bus in 10 secs rather than opening full website taking 5 mins to do so. And many more.
    I don't know what to say. I love N900 but I guess its not for use in public. Better use in private.
    I know now many ppl here will jump on tell me to do this and that and tell me its all my mistake to buy it.
    But anyone HONEST tell me if I'm wrong practically which one is better?

(N900 is the Best)

    i don't have the probllem with the resistive touch screen either. infact i love it than capacitative. but the thing is now you go on any website and they have their apps made for iphone like banking, local stores etc. i know we can access full webpage but don't you think its more convenient to have the things in apps where you can do the things in few touches rather than going through the whole webpage.
    my N900 sometimes takes ages to just open telephony (sigh). a yellowpage apps will pick your location straight away in the iphone and you just have to type the business name and here you go. you have all the info and contact and no can be dialed from the app whereas on our N900 its a very slow process of opening the web site then zooming it to fill the info of name and location than copying the no pasting in the telephony and calling. and if some how you loose the no than have to do the whole thing again. all the major banks in australia, India USA provide banking apps for iphone. allt he major airlins have apps for iphone. where you can check schedule, check in on iphone. you name any thing and they basically have an app. you go to another city and can order a pizza from dominos with that little app rather than going to the webpage and filling out all the details. it does have the apps for a common man which are needed for day to day business.
    mbox where you can take a pix of a docs and save as pdf or send it as a fax or receive a fax direct on the iphone. docs viewer and editor app for which you dont have to pay anything whereas for our N900 it $15.00.
    Microsoft was big b4 but since apple have got iphone in the market their worth is now 226 billions which says it all.
    I'm not saying iphone is the best and N900 is not, but as a user of both the phones i think iphone got got more practical apps to be used on day to day basis than N900, but still love my N900.

  • X6: I killed it. I am free

    Like many others here, I have been a loyal Nokia customer for many years. Through thick and thin (literally) I have learned to work around the odd bug in firmware and found the various devices I've owned (6110 was the first I think, 8110, 8210 etc. all the way through to an E71 and latterly, my current Nokia, an X6-00) a joy to hold and use.
    How I have tried to love this X6; the camera is superb, the videos put many digital cameras to shame. I find the music library to be a genuine replacement for my old iPod Touch. On paper, the Nokia Messaging Email service should be a competitor to Blackberry's service.
    And yet how I have hated it. The Nokia Messaging Email app for S60v5 is truly appalling. The build quality of the device is little better than that of a cheap Eastern European car of the mid-80s. The inconsistency of the Symbian user experience when used with a touchscreen. The half-assed CarMenu application, still in beta after well over a year. I could go on, but appreciating that everyone's experience is different, I'll not.
    The tumultuous affair is over however. At the weekend, my X6-00 was subjected to a dip in a pint of Guinness. Not just a splash - a proper bath. And then on Sunday morning, my son stood on it, cracking the digitizer. It is dead. It is an ex-X6.
    And so, my purgatory is over. I have reverted to my E71 and realised two things:
    1. My X6 was worse than I appreciated at the time
    2. The E71 is a fantastic piece of hardware, running an operating system which 'just works'.
    My faith in the brand has been temporarily restored. I sincerely hope Nokia can even find the wagon they fell off not so long ago and realise that their previous reign as hardware kings is something they need to work hard to re-gain, and realise that software testing isn't something that's done by the customer after the device has gone to market.
    The X6 is currently sitting in its component parts on my dining room table, awaiting a replacement screen. The engine board still boots up and I've managed to perform a backup via data cable. But to be honest, I really don't care if it ever lives again. My heart's not in it; I've gone back to my wife, the E71.
    Please Nokia, don't let this happen again. You're teasing me with the N8 but I've had my fingers burnt already. Better the devil you know for me I'm afraid.
    Andy.

    I finally got hold of a free email client called "Emoze" that receives push-mail 100% reliabley, which is probably something I should have done a long time ago. I guess that I finally realised Nokia's email app is now permanently broken and will never be fixed, and let me tell you what a relief it is to use an app that "just works".
    This, coupled with some improvements to lag that they fixed in the latest update, the fixes they made for Flashlite, and another app to let me stream LastFM over 3G, has finally given me what was promised when I bought my X6 almost 7 months ago. Now I won't need to buy an Android, coz I think the camera and GPS in the X6 are far superior to the HTC legend belonging to my g/f.
