Miso,
You seem to know more about this than anyone to date.
Is there a way to force Android or iOS phone to *not* go into 2G mode?
Or, at the very least, to audibly warn you when they're forced into 2G mode?

I'm not Miso, but you can force most decent phones not to go into '2G'
mode.

That can be done on most 'dumb' phones and - AFAIK - on most (all?)
Android phones (and I assume also on iPhones).

For example on my (4.1.1) phone:

Settings -> 'All' tab -> WIRELESS & NETWORKS -> Mobile networks ->
Network mode (Change the network operating mode) -> Preferred network
mode ->

On my phone this gives options:

GSM / WCDMA auto
WCDMA only
GSM only

If I would set this to 'WCDMA only', it would not get into GSM (==
'2G') mode [1].

[1] This space is left blank for some loon to claim that the feds can
revert this setting as well.

Here's her project, where a single tomoto wire cage

Protons are the walnuts.
Neutrons are the chestnuts.
And pumpkin seeds (much smaller than acorns) are electrons.

The first energy level (1s2 orbital) is further from the second
energy level (2s2,2p6 orbitals) which itself is closest to the
third energy level (3s2,3p4 orbitals).

The other kids' projects are shown here, where most didn't
even try to create round loops which are 3D in shape.

Most any springy material. Doesn't have to be metal, bamboo and other
woody materials work fine as well. Will self form onto decent circles.

I'm having this same problem except it shuts off and turns back on a few seconds later. Also if I leave it on for an extended period of time it will over heat and change to FM radio playing a really loud static sound.

It sounds like a totally different problem than the OP posted about 18 years ago....


Could be flaky micro, noisy/erratic lv supplies, contaminated control panel etc.

 

I think everyone is overthinking this one. First check to be sure that the protection relay is good. If the unit works longer with higher volumes, the relay is usually the cause of the cutouts.

RE: overheating.

Check for frayed and potential crossed wires at the speaker connections. A single strand may not be enough to cause the short detector to kick in, but enough to bring down the impedence to make the amp work too much.

Given the age of this unit, I would start by checking the entire unit for poor/cold solder joints. Continued use of this with heatup/cooldown cycles will crystalize these connection over time. Look carefully at the end joints at the display. This is a common area for poor connections.

Try these and post any updates.

I believe this is the one where a ground wire needs to be run from the
display circuit board to the chassis. Sometimes a ground wire also
has to be run from the tuner board to the chassis. These problems do
cause micro lock up , tuner noise, eratic operation and other
symptoms. Chuck

 

>"I imagine that the mainstream news media can do what's necessary. "

They always do. That's how we got here. When people did not know what Wilson did, or even Roger B. Taney. Most of the high offices in this country have been held by those in cahootz with the bankers. Give me the power to issue the nations' currency and I care not who writes the laws. (I did NOT mispunctuate "nations'")

It is not a mispunctuation because I am not quoting Uncle Amschel. you knopw the guy whose son Evelyn owns half the banks in the world, or could with pocket change. That Uncle.

This scam has been going on for senturies. though a bit different and less refined, this is the kind of chicanery going on oin Germany that broke the place and allowed Hitler to rise to power. It was NOT reparations, it was the banks. And where di all that loot go they stole ? Financed the Russian revolution. That is why Hitler knew they were coming. And it was true.

Y'all know the mess that fucking ensued after. These baners ar the same ones who ran the Soviet empire into the ground by literally stealing everything. The USSR may have been productive at the beginning but Russians shrewder in business than Germans and soon they became unproductive. they said "they pretend to pay us so we pretend to work". A country CANNOT run like that and THAT was more of a factor in putting them down than anything the US did..

the Russians are smat, bad motherfuckers and now that the people are happy and shit and there is food and jobs and money, and more fucking freedom than in the US, I think they no longe pretend to work.

And even when they pretended, the MIGs they build didn't pretend. We had more planes but they had better planes. Communicatiuon, radiio and shit like this, they are as good as we are., Now in actual digital, down to design the chip, our Silicon Valley got them on that.

But Putin, though a prick who beat his way to the top and all thart, needs nothing. And he will not allow the baners to run the country, and the people like that because unlike in the qwest, they KNOW WHO THEY ARE. And the people support him and is it wrong to make an enemy ourt of Russia now. this is all about fossil fuel folks. Russia has now started buolding a pipeline through Hungary which is goiung to fuck the west right up the ass.

So the collapse will happen. Then the people are likely to support an ultra nationalist and possibly racist regime here and uit will use its military ight to make a little change of plans.

We go back into South America and take it over. Fuck it, it is ours. fuck the middle east, they might run out anyway while South America has it and hasn't been anywhere near as tapped. We get us anothe rSmedley P. Butler and give him the gun. Guns. And it is much closer to home, much easier to keep an eye on.

Liek Hitler and Europe. And Germany would only have had to opress for a short time because the peole would start to support them. you think this hasn't happened before ? It is like a large scale Stockholm Syndrome.

Which is what we were ASLL born into . Not one of us nows freedom nor truly wants it. There is a balance between just living in the woods off of nuts and berries and living in a high rise apartment where you can't even smoke a joint. there is a balance in between these extremes and it is off balance.. And Darwin's nature has been inhibited and it is WRONG to do that.

OK, enought for now. Ge well, keep your powder dry, The shit IS gojng to hit the fan and while you wiull not be able to help determine who is right, you might be able to help determine who is left.

 

Sorry, Evelyn is NOT the son of Amschel. I knew that but typoed too fast...

I meant decendent.
