I live in new york and take the subway to school every morining. Since most of the time it is underground I don't have signal. Every time my phone starts to look for signal the music stops for like a second or two which Is pretty annoying. Is there anyway to remove this sound?
Sometime I use airplane mode which does stop the sound but I forget to turn it off and ppl get mad at me for not replying to their texts so any advice other than airplane mode is good.

hey guys.
i'm experiencing something weird with Pandora. I always stream over WiFi (no other choice) and typically while having the phone plugged in to the charger. but i like having music while i shower so i was putting pandora to stream while the phone had the screen off just sitting there on the bathroom (Away from water of course).
for a while this worked fine, but a couple of weeks ago something happened that makes pandora stop playing. sometimes it stops and never resumes playing until i turn on the screen and press play. sometimes it skips from song to song only playing 1-3 seconds of the song.
this only happens while it's in the shower. i've tried having setCPU's profiles for screen off but on and off, and same thing either way.
what is causing this? can i fix it?
When using Pandora on the computer it will ask you if you're still there after a certain amount of time and if you don't click yes, it will stop playing until you click it. Maybe it is something similar? I play mine while I set up for work for about an hour or so with my headphones, but I haven't a long period of time without skipping a song or changing the station, so I haven't had the issue.
Pandora will skip to the next song if you loose data for a second. Probably dont have as strong of a signal in the bathroom.

i dont think that's it. the bathroom is within 15 feet of the wireless router. the phone gets all bars
I have the same issue, and the signal is strong.
Are you running any profiles that underclock the CPU when the screen is off? I stopped having that issue when I stopped using setcpu.

Are you running Juice Defender? If Pandora is not on the list of apps, you will lose data connection when the screen goes off.

I had setcpu profiles to overclock the phone with screen off...but that was the first thing I disabled in trying to diagnose the problem...
And no I'm not using juice defender or any othersuch program...
So what else?

Are you running 1.5? Mine would do something similar on 1.4, but 1.5 fixed it

If you are using a kernel that undervolts it is possible you are losing signal even though you have full bars. In fact, that is the reason that I no longer run the undervolt kernels. The problem is that you have full bars when the screen is on, because when the screen is on it is probably not undervolted. Once the screen goes off though, the undervolting kicks in, and when the phone is undervolted to less than stock voltage it significantly reduces the sensitivity of the radios. I have a 5 mile stretch on the way home that I get about four bars on with a stock kernel and never have Pandora drop a song or stop. If I run an undervolted kernel, on the other hand, Pandora stops repeatedly in that 5 mile stretch, not playing any more than 10 seconds of any song, unless I keep repeatedly touching the screen to keep it on.
Im using king clicks #6 I believe...is that one of them fancy kernels things?

The default battery-saving measures of Android include turning off WiFi after physical phone innactivity (meaning, a few minutes after the screen turns off). Some ROMs let you change the WiFi sleep policy, some don't.
I'm going to try this out today...got a lot of research to do so I'm going to run pandora with screen off and unplugged at the library...lets see how it goes...

After you do that, turn off the "Always On Mobile Data" option. I still get push Gmail (the stock mail app that I use for MobileMe doesn't work hourly, but syncs when I open it and randomly without sometimes). Everything else works normal, but when your phone is locked nothing but Gmail, text messages and app alarms that use Slacker/Pandora work just fine. Pandora stops between songs (I listen while I'm setting up my work station) just hit the top power button and it'll resume.
I get about 30 hours with moderate usage. Checking about 10-20 emails per day, listening to Pandora for about an hour or so, checking some web pages, a few text messages, few photos and maybe playing Angry Birds for a bit is my moderate usage. I also keep Bluetooth off unless i'm in my car and I stream to my radio, gps is off unless I use navigation (I still use the tower triangulation for correct weather) and Wi-Fi off.
Sorry for being so long. Hope that helps.

lol pretty sure you missed the joke
Must have been a bad one. I was just helping.
Hey guys,
I am searching for a mod or app that makes my Handy go online in a set period.
For example I have set the Wi-fi not to be on always when screen is off and have activated the standby mode (so 3G won´t be on when screen is off), because it makes the battery last so much longer. And now I don´t want to always have to switch on screen or touch my phone I would just like it to go online every 30 minutes for 1-2 minutes so i get the notifications and see i have missed something because of the notification light.
I know you will answer me just turn everything on always but that drains the battery to much.
Hope someone could help me.

sometimes when i am chatting via facebook or whatsapp at late evening i fall asleep,it is not as funny to wake up and see you friends or your girlfriend tell you: you felt asleep again
i am asking if there is any app that could play music or sound after a period of inactivty of the device.if i dont touch screen for X minutes it will play a sound and then when i will need to go sleep i will just disable it
there is any?
I have been facing this issue where my internet speed drops to zero from time to time and it stays like that and it takes it's own sweet time to return to normal.Turning the airplane mode on/off doesn't fix it.Its so annoying and it affects everything like my whatsapp calls where the call reconnects from time to time thus making it frustrating and interrupting like wise if im downloading something or using any app that depends on the internet they all suddenly stop working due to zero internet speed.Plz tell me any fix for it
ISP problem probably. Try again with different sim/wifi.
