Yes please. Dude that would be great
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoulon:
I would love this especially if there was a fully working Dual boot method along with apps to SD card. if you finish this project, samsung and sprint will have one less reason to not release gingerbread to the epic.

Like jbadboy said just about every epic user would like to see this because it would make porting the future versions of android easier as well.

If you made it work, I would install it right away.

-1 I think its a bad idea! Who likes updates anyway? I was so mad when they got us froyo so fast. We didnt even get time to apreciate eclair. I got an idea how about reverting us back to 1.6 donut and throw in some crappy touchwiz or something heavily tied into the framework. ;) For real though you would be my hero if you cook us up some gingerbread! good luck!

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaka78:
This would be awesome. Question: Would it be easier to just wait a few weeks and port the Nexus S 4G rom to the Epic? The hardware (including radio and Wimax) should be pretty much the same. You would just need to add in the driver for the hardware keyboard and make sure it supports the micro sd. I also saw that it's being released with 2.3.4. Just throwing this out there. Good Luck!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] castro08:
I got a question, so dose the vibrant have gingerbread roms since the nexus s is already on tmobile and they both don't have a keyboard?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] austin420:
no, they are about as far along with cm7 as we are and no gingerbread roms yet.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] castro08:
Thanks and I don't expect anyone to know, but ill ask why don't they? I keep hearing people say that we can get "instant" ports once the nexus s is release, but if the vibrant dosnt have them yet and its been 4 months how can we?

Thanks in advance if/who response to this
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
The radio in the Nexus S is Different than the Vibrant's, while both are for T-Mo the Nexus S doesn't support HSPA+ which probably is part of the problem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] castro08:
Thanks:)

But I may be wrong but I thought HSPA+ was thre "4g" and that is on the new vibrant or whatever its called not on the original vibrant
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
The original Vibrant supports 14mbps HSPA+ the Vibrant 4G supports 21mbps

So are u still working on this? U said u had progress made just wondering if u can put some screenshots up?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khari998:
if your still working on this, it might be easier if you just take the official gingerbread rom for the galaxy s and try and port that to the epic. or if u want take it and take off touchwiz. im just saying, there is a gingerbread rom you can work from
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Not at all.

1. There is no source, or radio to build with, the ROM was leaked already compiled.

2. If removing Touchwiz was at all easy, don't you think that it would be done already? There's a reason that all of the ROMs in the EPIC section still have the built in touchwiz framework.

I made a backup when i first decided to flash a ROM on my phone, but i didn't know about apps like titanium backup at that time, where i can just backup an app or game and also backup the data along with it.

is there a way to get into any of the image files from the nandroid backup and retrieve data like game saves/data and stuff?

Boot into recovery scroll to backup and restore then advanced restore AND ONLY RESTORE DATA. This will give you all your game progress back. I do this everytime I flash a new cm7 build and it works everytime.

Have just returned to using android on my hd2 from wp7 as i have found myself using justin.tv quite a lot recently.

I 1st installed froyo and found the justin.tv viewer app in the market but really wanted to use gingerbread, so i installed gingerbread and looked and it doesnt show up, it also doesnt link to via barcode scan or email link.

I can still use the site as it is flash but would really like to know how i can use the viewer app.

any info is of great use! thanks:confused:

sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the marketplace took down justin viewer off the market this week...

I posted in Chulri's thread but here will be better seen from anyone.

Device : A70IT , fw 2.1.08 ;)

Is anyone willing to try something I DID and seems to me to give my tablet significant speed increase. I want to check if it is real or just my imagination.

In my latest fw 2.1.08 installed, I flashed 2.1.08 initframs and 2.0.71 zimage (both from chulri files, first post . you know how to : flash kernel from developer menu at boot holding vol- button)

And I set the speed with SetCPU 2.1.1a to 1000mHz both min and max. Also in settings menu I choosed "Overdrive"

Please test and report.

Thanks
[Gen8 Android Development] fly_us:
Of course it is real, since your tablet will run at maximum speed all the time instead of running at 1000mhz for heavily load task only like default (not count the overclock here). However, it will consume more battery and get hot faster.

If you don't care much about battery life, then it will do the trick.
[Gen8 Android Development] lagoskon:
Before the 2.0.71 zimage kernel I was running at full speed the 2.1.08 kernel. After the switch I noticed more speed gain. That's why I need confirmation from other users.
[Gen8 Android Development] Techngro:
I have had my A70 set to 1000 min and 1200 max for months now, and I have seen a speed increase, and only a little extra battery drain.

What kind of test you want to?

Have you try OverClock? Archos Gen8 can OC to 1.2GHz as well;)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony yayo:
I know, I know, the GPS issue is like beating a dead horse but I'm frustrated as hell and have to ask. I NEED to have a working GPS, I live in Chicago and believe me you don't wanna end up on the southside when you should be on the northside! Called yesterday and all TMO will say is gps restore app, try froyo, factory reset, blah blah blah. Told tech support I have tried everything, nothing works. I could even hear his voice quiver a little when I said I can't be the first person he's heard that has had this problem as he says no I've never heard that before. What a joke. Explained to him how its a well known fact that the GPS doesnt work on ANY of the Galaxy S Variants and that its all over their own forums! I don't hear people with HTC's, or anyone else for that matter, *****ing that their GPS doesn't work! He almost crapped his pants when I mentioned the hardware fix! Seems to me that if people try it and it works that it shows there is a DEFINITE hardware problem and that can't be good for TMO. How does samsuck get away with selling 10 million defective phones!? For example, if you buy a new car and it refuses to start, you take it back to the dealership and they make it work, right? Yes, the dealer, or company that sold you the car, NOT the auto factory (or samsung, whatever the case may be)! I'm sure you get the idea, anyways.

Now, on to the actual question. Has ANYONE had ANY luck exchanging their vibrant and finding the GPS working on the different phone? Has anyone had any luck exchanging their Vibrant for ANOTHER phone, MT4g etc., that DOES have a working GPS?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abu-7abash:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwasblown:
live on

bro i have the same problem, the best solution is to buy a usglobalsat bt-359 receiver, and buy an app on the market named bluethooth gps provider. and if you really want to shine them on buy an app named navigon mobile navigator. the technique makes your phone a fully functional gps system, not an agps or assisted gps by internet connection. prove
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mystycs:
lmfao idk! I hate refurb but thats just me being paranoid! Id probly be better off doing the gps hardware fix haha
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
I've given up on the GPS on this phone, it will never work because it is something wrong with the hardware. Doesn't matter how many updates you do or refurbs or exchanges you do, they are all the same.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd86:
I find that if I honestly don't leave a fresh rom install alone for at least 15 minutes after install, I get crappy gps. If I don't mess with it at all..my gps will lock in 2-5 seconds and be within 10 meters w.o agps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tony yayo:
After asking for a replacement phone yesterday, i received it today even though they said it would take a week. GPS works great! 9 out of 12 birds INSIDE! locks within 10 feet outside. AWESOME!! if anyone else's doesn't work I STRONGLY suggest asking for a new one! its worth the time, believe me!

[Defy General] jared_au:
I am about to make my first foray into an Android device (Motorola Defy - Android 2.1 on the Telstra network in Australia) after years and years of faithful Symbian servitude. There is one little thing that is bugging me about Android so I thought I'd ask the experts as I've spent hours looking for an answer and still not coming up with a clear answer.

I understand I can turn off contact and calendar sync with Google quite easily but I'm unable to find anything to suggest how hard/easy it would be to sync my contacts and calendar (via USB, Bluetooth or WiFi - no real preference) to my local computer running Linux, specifically Ubuntu, rather than the cloud. I would prefer it sync to Evolution as this is what I have been using for years now with various forms of SyncML and Symbian phones (most recently syncevolution).

I would really prefer not to give over my hundreds of contacts and all my personal appointments to the cloud so I'm searching for a solution that doesn't involve customising the basic software too much for preference. It doesn't have to be a 24/7 sync, I'm currently just running it on an as required basis. I would even be willing to pay for the service providing it works.

Now I understand the whole "don't buy an Android phone if you don't want to use Google's services" and I've seen many posts like mine deteriorate into "why do you even want this?" so bearing in mind I've considered these arguments already is there anyone with any constructive suggestions?
[Defy General] :
This...?

https://android-client.forge.funambol.org/
[Defy General] jared_au:
I was looking at this sort of thing but couldn't understand, would this require the installation of my own funambol server on the computer here or would just installing the client on the phone allow it then to talk SyncML to something like hxxp://syncevolution.org/ (unable to post outside links yet sorry for the crap link)? Sorry if it seems noobish but want to confirm before spending money on something that may/may not suit my needs.
[Defy General] :
I'm not sure as I don't use it myself. I mentioned it cause you mentioned you've been using SyncML in the past so I think it may help...
[Defy General] jared_au:
Thanks for the pointer. I'm trying to work out if

Handset+SyncML client -> Syncevolution -> Evolution

or

Handset+SyncML client -> SyncML Server -> Syncevolution -> Evolution

is going to end up being the case. I guess it's one of those "just get it and see" things it would appear. I was just hoping this could be confirmed either way beforehand because a SyncML server is going to be a fair bit of work for just one phone and one instance of evolution.

I'm looking to get the Motorola Defy in the next week or so, so I will make sure I report back how it goes if no one else has any other information beforehand.
[Defy General] jared_au:
Just a quick follow up for anyone else looking into this. If you have the time I would whole heartedly suggest setting up your own personal funambol server as I couldn't find a reasonable solution to my problem.

As I don't have the time at this point to do that I have used iCal Import/Export in conjunction with Touch Calendar (I dislike the layout of the default calendar and Touch lets me repeat an event every X days which is good for shift workers like myself) for my calendar needs. I have been using the inbuilt Motorola Phone Portal over wifi to import/export vcards into the phone for my contacts.

So now I have my contacts and calendar in the phone and can manually import/export which is as close as I've gotten to syncing locally at this point. If I figure out anything else I'll post back again and I'm still open to other suggestions that are a bit simpler than a separate funambol server.

Use handcent sms from the Market. Turn off notifications in your stock messaging app once you've installed it to avoid double notifications.

There's no way to do it through the AOSP contacts or sms app.

The procedure "un-brands" the HTC device and tricks the system into believing it is carrier independent and good to go for the update. Please note that the hack is for HTC devices only and is an advanced technique. Check out the source link if you want to apply' be warned though, you're doing it at your own risk!"
