What would happen to the apps if you were to wipe with a ROM change?
[Android Apps and Games] samyvibrantuser:
Use Titanium backup and restore back.

Oh snap, I did not know that. Good thing I read this before I wiped my phone without any worry of losing anything. I'll have to do a Backup now. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] typhoone:
your apps are updateable, for free. lol. and since your account is set up with your amazon acct you can wipe and change roms a million times, as soon as you put the app store back on your phone and sign in with your account you can redownload your apps back again, still free. :)

Hey guys, I got my new Galaxy S two days ago, already optimised it and installed the new Darky's Extreme Edition 9.5 custom rom. Now I want to undervolt and maybe overclock my SGS. Is this possible with this custom rom ? Do I need a special kernel or can I just use apps like setcpu or voltagecontrol ?

greetings, Sir Kasimir
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Probably but yet again you need to ask Darky .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themate1987:
I think that you can't OC on darky's rom. I know that it is available in ultimate rom but for darky I'm not sure.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkyy:
Possible on every ROM.

You just need a kernel which is capable of OC/UV and app to control it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirKasimir:
Ok, thanks for the reply.

That means I can use a different kernel with this rom right ? Now I need to know what the Dark Core Kernel does and what the advantages/disadvantages of the different kernels are.

Having upgraded from an older HTC that ran the same version of windows software I was disappointed to find that when adding a new calendar entry that the categories are not updated in line with the ones on the PC it was synced with. You cant even add new categories on the phone which would have at least helped.

Has anyone found a way round this..?
[HD Mini General] Roy_S:
Anyone....?
[HD Mini General] Roy_S:
I found that if you use the calendar option under Outlook then the have the categories as before. It's only if you use the link from the front screen that your options are limited.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Freek91:
So i just sold my old blackberry curve and along with it the wall charger i used for my MT4g

so i looked around my house for another corded wall charger as the plug-usb cable combo just doesnt work for me as the cord is way too short for my needs

well i found an older Moto wall charge PN# SPN5334A...it has the same basic specs are the mytouch plug part with the Input: 100-240~200mA 50-60Hz...but the output is 5v 550mA instead of the mytouch plug being 5v 1A

so the question is...will the different of almost a half an amp cause any serious issues other than maybe a slower charge? any potential for damage to the battery or phone or even the charger?

well any help would be great...thanks
[myTouch 4G Accessories] f1vel66a:
No it wont hurt the phone, only way to damage it is to over amp, as in say it was 2.5 amps but however it will slow the charge down I recommened going to a a store that sells computer stuff and picking up a usb extension cord I got a 3 foot on mine and dont see any draw backs as I do with a under amped charger
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Freek91:
yeah i never really considered extending the usb cable...i actually have a 6 ft extension cable sitting in my drawer

but i appreciate the info
[myTouch 4G Accessories] f1vel66a:
No problem hope it helped
[myTouch 4G Accessories] sleepyfu:
What's over amp? If the voltage is correct, the higher the amperage the more efficient it(charger) is, as the phone will draw as much as it needs to charge, in this case around 1amp according the factory charger.

Matching voltage is the important part. Too low of amperage will result in slower charge or no charge when using and plugged in at the same time.

[via XDA premium]
[myTouch 4G Accessories] paczek:
All voltage is the force pushing the amps through. Amps is the actual energy. Resistance is a factor too. Check the Watts to see that they match. But don't over amp it as well
[myTouch 4G Accessories] sleepyfu:
I meant there is no such thing as over amp. Amprage rating is for how stout the power supply is. A 5v/2amp supply can charge 2 of these phone with out issues. 500mA will charge but slow. Think of car batteries they are all 12v and the "long lasting" or "performance " ones will have better amp ratings.

Wattage is simply volt x amp, in this case here, volt is the constant.

[via XDA premium]
[myTouch 4G Accessories] paczek:
If by over amp, you mean over charge? Too much amperage causes a lot of problems, just like too much voltage can cause a lot of priblems
[myTouch 4G Accessories] f1vel66a:
I've seen phone batterys blow from to much amps... You can go + .5 amps max on a cell phone before things start to go wrong. And that isnt recommended for to long unless you want battery issues

Sent from my HTC Glacier
[myTouch 4G Accessories] sleepyfu:
So did it happen with a 5volt output charger or something higher? I have seen 8v mini usb charger from Motorola around, that will blow out your HTC battery.

Also can happen if there is a problem with the phones charging circuit, not from a 5v charger with a high amperage rating. Now with a higher amp rating, and your phone has issues, the more amps is available, the bigger "battery blow" you can achieve.

Do I recommend more than 5v/1amp? not really, but can you use a 5v/2amp charger or a 5v/4amp charger if it exists? Yes. Is 1amp safer? kinda.

How do I know this? it was an amperage question I answered wrong at my every 1st job interview 11 years ago.

These guys put it in better words than I do.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowmike:
Maybe its just me, but I'd like to see Rom manager properly used for our device.

My friend has the ego 4G and when using Rom manager he early goes to xda for his updates or a new Rom because for the Evo devs have it set up so their Rom populated the download section of Rom manager. Also this way when a Rom is updated you get a notification that there's an update.

This would benefit the users of the mt4g because a lot of the Rom downloads and mirrors are not always mobile friendly.

Was just wondering why none of our devs take use of this feature.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
We could make it work with rom manager, at this point its just a matter of hosting bandwidth and such.

My battery says 100%, then I turned it off and plugged it back in and the indicator was still white. Huh?
[Xoom General] StarlessKnight:
The anorexic manual says Green is 95% or higher. Maybe the indicator had a margin of error or somehow used up 5% of its power cycling (which would be unfortunate)?
[Xoom General] cam30era:
I'm not sure of the level that Motorola uses, but with Cyanogenmod 7 on my Droid Incredible the charging light turns green at 90%. Maybe this is a standard Android value???
[Xoom General] patass:
I seem to be flying through my battery, but I HAVE been doing a ton of stuff. Even playing games via bluetooth and hdmi on my big tv... I'll leave it off and plugged in for an hour and thirty minutes and see if the indicator changes color. Still white at the moment.

EDIT - At full, 100% charge (tells me so when it's on), my LED is White. Someone please verify their LED colors for me...
[Xoom General] jwtyler:
During charge mine is white/blue. When it reaches 95ish percent it turns green.
[Xoom General] epakrat75:
Regardless of when the charge indicator turns white, green, etc like many other mobile devices the battery gauge may not be all that accurate. When the battery gets to a certain point, charging stops and discharging begins again. After a discharging for a while, charging may begin again. The amount of charge shown may depend on where you catch it in the cycle. Unplugging it after it becomes green and then plugging it in again causes a "bump charge". This is fairly common behavior and hardly exclusive to the xoom.

If you want to really know what is going on, I suggest using this free android utility / widget...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] GazWales:
Hey all, i have searched XDA and google but cannot find anything relating to my issue!

I have installed MAGLDR 1.3 and the clockwork recover mod tool.

Im running HSPL 2.08 - i have tried to install V3 but it only gives option for 2.08? I have used a suggested radio and installed the ultimate android rom.

Now the problem is that 5 times out of ten on boot up it sits at the MAGLDR menu with "gogogo" but it doesnt gogogo... Also it regularly freezes when doing anything intense! I suspect is related to the SD interface? I say this because copying any large files to the SD results in a timesout! i have tried the SD in other devices all works fine! I have tried several SD types and sizes all with same result!

Anybody have any suggestions? I dont believe its the rom becasue like i said booting up in MAGLDR results in freezes! PS i ahve Task29 and tried diff Radios..

Hope somebody can help :)

Thanks guys.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Jimmersd:
I suggest that you try reformatting your SD Card. Also it has been noted here that some SD cards don't work very well. Search for which. Then try installing Clockwork Recovery Mod. This will allow you to format the Nand to different sizes depending on the Phone you are using. The European HD2 LEO has a 512 Nand while the TMOBIUS American version is 1024. You can't install a nand that is intended for the American phone on the EU version. But you can install the smaller EU version on an American phone.

There is a lot to learn so search all of the different forums and all of the answers will be there.

Do not expect the answers to be spelled out easily. These people in these forums are mostly geeks who could care less whether you are a newby or not. Sink or swim.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] chrisgto4:
Does your phone say T-Mobile on it?

Did u format your sdcard?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CasualStarlord:
You should be in the Q & A forum, not this one.

Make sure you use 2.15 radio, and try a smaller rom like jan-willem3's MIUI as that does not rely on the SD card for data by default.

I have a custom dock, with the USB port on the bottom so the phone is laying horizontal with the buttons to the right.

Any way to force the G2 to think my fake dock is the real G2 home dock? Thanks in advance for any help.

I performed the webtop mod but did not root device, as the webtop mod was pretty simple and I have no use for root.

With the new announcment that an update is coming the 29th I would like to revert back to stock so I can obtain this update.

I am somewhat technically advanced (I rooted and put a custom rom on a g1, but used step by step guides to do so).

I have found many different instructions on rooting and the instructions for returning webtop to stock are layed out for the more advanced users.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
Hi,

since at this point it is unknown whatever updated 10.1 will still run on Tegra 2 or something else (Exynos 4201) I would appreciate your opinion on this matter.

What do you think will be inside?

If two versions will be available which one will you buy?

Of you hear any thing new in this subject - please post here.

Since Tegra 2 has some limitations (video playback) I personally hope it will run on Samsung's own SoC, will play all video formats and divix/xivid with DLNA and playback from SD will work beautifully.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] SteveSlimer:
I have an issue with Sammy using their own chip for one reason. When every other phone was running a Qualcomm chip and the Galaxy phones were using Hummingbird chips, there was some optimization in the android code that was not included for Samsung chips.

Since Honeycomb has been built around the Tegra 2 chip, I fear the same thing will happen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Bandage:
Don't believe HC was built around Tegra2...hence the reason for no Dual-Core spec requirement. Hell, it's up and running on devices of all sorts as we speak.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
I want Tegra games more than support for h.264 high profile video playback.

So, I want Tegra :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
If you want games you should wait for a SONY tablet ;-)

Why do you assume that it will have a worse performance in games than Tegra 2?

I think that it will be better :-) than T2 in both cases.

BTW: thera are gossips of new Moto tablet coming out around fall with T3 (QUad core Tegra) inside...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ravynmagi:
Assuming he's talking about the PS3 and TegraZone games that require a Tegra chip. Other chips could probably play them, but think Nvidia has it so they look specifically for the Tegra chip.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
Not that gaming is my main priority, but I saw all those "Tegra optimized" games on the Tegra Zone.

They are all nice games :)

It will be sucks if they don't perform as expected on non-Tegra tablet.

Because as I said, I could care less with that H.264 high profile. I can still "convert" them or stream (via future app ala AirPlay on iOS).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] arika44:
by this summer, tegra2 will be one and half years old since announced, and tegra3 will be only half year away
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gururise:
More than likely, Samsungs SoC will be nearly identical to the Ipad 2's A5 SoC, which has already shown to be several times faster in the gfx department vs a Tegra 2.

Also, the Tegra 2 is missing the NEON optimizations in most other A9 SoC's.

So I put my vote toward Samsung's SoC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ryude:
But like all great hardware, it's only as good as the software it runs. I'd rather have the Tegra if it has exclusive content or specialized support from Google.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] veeeee:
There were news reports that Google was going to make Tegra 2 the reference platform for Honeycomb but that never happened. Now it looks like Google is working with LG to come out with a Nexus tablet this summer so it'll be interesting to see what they are putting in that.

Personally I hope Samsung steers clear of Tegra 2 and goes with their own SoC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Blueman101:
Isn't LG already releasing the G-Slate? Are they gonna release another one in the summer? Thats just not a great strategy me thinks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bd85:
In sweden there is now a IT fair called Dustin Expo, and one off or bigger computer sites reported that Samsung not going to use Tegra2 like the other manufacturers.

They will use there own dual-core ( probably Exynos ) and Adeno 220.

Starts on 2min

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ggUXvZnbM8&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Looking forward to hear from Samsung whats up, and what spec the 8.9" will have and some reviews on how good there skinn on HC is.

The hardware that Samsung is about to release i really like, but they sucks on software updates and improve the products thay have released. So should i get the big and heavy xoom whit updates or the light and sleek Samsung without support
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Magnesus:
There is also Asus Transformer to choose from.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DKYang:
Besides Touchwiz, I say it depends on how you're going to use it. If I decide to get a tablet, it'll most likely be the new Galaxy Tab because (I'm going to assume here) that it'll most likely play any video and audio format I throw at it. I think that's the big difference (codecs) between the two as of now besides Touchwiz.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
If true that would be the best news of the current tablet season as Tegra 2 sucks BIG TIME!

I would also want to know.... how close in design is Apple A5 (the one in iPad 2) by Samsung to Exynos by Samsung :-)
