I've been messing around with it, firefox 4, for a couple hours today. I've had no issues with the sync option, I actually really like it. being able to sync my laptop's tabs to the nook is a worthwhile feature IMO. however, I really like dolphin HD. Enough so, that I doubt I'll switch.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcmanuf:
Hello.

After i updated the splashscreen (splash1) of my desire after s-off by alpharev and after flashing the oxygen boot table, my desire has become very slow in booting.

Via youtube a non-rooted desire typically takes 40 seconds to boot.

In my case the costum splash screen i have flashed(via fastboot) just stays on for ~1,7minutes before entereing the OS.

Also I think that its strange that i dont longer have a boot animation, and that the splash screen is on for so long time.

I use oxygen 2.0.1 but that shouldn't really matter, and I use clocworkmod 2.5.1.7-alpharev version.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksonchow:
Yes, I have the same problem. After I s-offed, I flashed another splash screen and installed the Leedroid rom. The desire stays on the splash screen for a about 1.5 MINUETS at the splash screen and another 30 seconds for the boot animation.

After that I had flashed my Hboot to CM7r2 and flash Reflex gingerbread rom, the problem still exist. Besides that, I have tried both Clockwork and RA recovery, still, takes me TWO minutes to boot up

So, it should not relates to HBOOT, ROM nor recovery..... really confusing...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TechKidTarek:
the samsung galaxy s our phones will not get updated till mid-April claims.

@samsungsuomi :Galaxy S:n Android 2.3 -päivityksen testausvaihe on loppumetreillään. Uusi ohjelmistoversio saapuu ladattavaksi huhtikuun puolivälissä

which translates to: Galaxy S Android 2.3 update to the testing phase is a late stage. The new version of the software download arrives in mid-April,

if these sources are correct Samsung owes us all a apology as they promised march we will be getting gingerbread

or by getting gingerbread they meant leaked ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] webwude:
An apology for what - all news we were receiving the past months were "unofficial sources" or rumours or "i know i guy who knows a guy who works at S", I never actually read anything official, e.g. on a samsung website.

Even though the news, which was "almost" official (samsung romania ;) facebook), rejected an actual release date at the end of march.

Just stay relaxed, an update will come in a few hours / days / weeks / years :D

Kind regards,

ww
[Galaxy S I9000 General] frauhottelmann:
I don't know why people always think that they deserve an apology from Samsung or that they get bad software support. Does anybody here have a written (or otherwise) guarantee that Sammy is giving us GB at a specific time? I guess not...

I admit that the first Eclair ROMs were crap and the GPS could be better, but seriously stop the whining, it's like talking with little kids that want their candy! Just wait until it's done and if it takes two weeks longer to sort out some bugs, then so be it...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rschenck:
I agree....they should apologize for possibly not living up to "a friend of a friend said" rumors, or for changing their roadmap to suit the pronouncements off the cuff on the facebook page of a regional Samsung distributer in a small market?

Really?

Or because Tricky used what he felt could possibly be the final 2.3.3 (though from user reports if it IS final, to quote Ricky Ricardo, Samsung's got some 'splainin to do) to make a big entry into the ROM Kitchen team?

Somehow I don't think so. No apologies required, from anyone. Just patience.

To be honest, considering no source is released and there seem to be various problems/quirks with JVK, I would prefer they take a couple weeks and give us a much more ready for prime time version.

Relax, Gingerbread is coming...just be patient and enjoy your 2.2.1 Custom ROMs and be grateful again you aren't stuck with just a single flavor of iOS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VillePie:
Since I'm a new user and I cant post links, I'm just going to quote. Finnish branch of Samsung has announced a press release a few hours ago through a publishing company:

Google "epressi Samsung Galaxy S 2.3" for the article and translate it through Google Translate.

I'm wondering why the press release is not on Samsung's website.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rschenck:
Until it IS on Samsung's website, or we see it in Korean, I would tend to take that with a grain of salt.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] electrotune1200:

You have Gingerbread now. It's stable and useable. This can't hold you over a few more weeks?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] curls1:
am now on 2.3.3

gingerbread!

why wine about waiting for kies just flash it ya self.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] :
Maybe because it looks like JVK is not the final release version and still has some bugs?.

The thing with these web blogs and tech news pages is they all tend to get their "exclusive" news from the same sources which 9 out of 10 times are wrong. Case in point recent news quoting Samsung Mobile Facebook page which wasn't as it was the SamsungGalaxyS Facebook page which looked remarkably similar until you read the owner info. Something you would think they would check first really. Egg face say no more.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VillePie:
I can't see why people can't use their time anticipating the new release. It's not your time, obviously. Some people want to flash their phone with a safe, official firmware and want to know some ETA when it's going to happen. It's not like people are F5'ing every Android news site. Of course, this can hold but can't there be any speculation? It's up to XDA's moderators to decide, is this topic worth of discussing.

What comes to the first post, this is good news (if true) and in my opinion most reliable newsbit so far about Gingerbread. You shouldn't take it for granted that Samsung is liable to update its firmwares and "breaks promises" if doesn't. Operating as a company, Samsung's every firmware update is giving something to us, the customers. When people buy their phones, Samsung's is not liable to update firmwares if there's nothing critically wrong with it. Froyo is good but now we are on the road towards something even better. And it's a win-win situation to us.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] curls1:

Doing some research it seems the /dev partition is part of RAM. Is this where our missing RAM is? Does this mean its usable? I copied a file there with no probs but obviously it disappeared on reboot.

143500K total but only 12K used, this seems a massive waste! It is tmpfs, I assume its just a RAM disk, is this correct? If no one knows we could prob test it by looking at the r/w speed.

If it is could we put swap there? Does our kernal support it? If not what could we use it for?

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rougegoat:
I remember on one of the Eris roms I flashed a while back that the bootloader was a dancing android in front of the HTC logo. It made me laugh for a good bit. Sadly, I can't for the life of me remember the name of the rom. If I could, I'd just pull it out and repackage it myself.

So...anyone happen to have this bootloader just lying around?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I'm not trying to pick apart your words but you might want to say boot animation in the future. A boot loader is a completely different thing. :)

Screaming Droid Boot Animation Flashable Download 320 x 480 is what you want from the [BOOT ANIMATION]The Screaming Droid! Now With Sound!!! (Updated 3/13/11) thread. At least, it has a dancing droid and it gives me a laugh when I use it as my boot animation, too.

I know that version worked because I used it. I see there's a newer version in that thread as well that advertises sound even under CM7 (boot animations with sound are usually only working under stock ROMs like xtrSENSE). Haven't tried it yet, but I will soon.

If you try it first please let me know how it works for you.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgreen24:
If you go here:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18910-mod-enable-custom-boot-sounds/

and download the file you can use that to enable boot sounds.

The flashable zip won't work because it's for the wildfire, but if you take the scripts from the zip and place them in the /system/bin directory (and place the sound in /system/media) and then follow the instructions in the post to enable the sound from the terminal, it will work.

I did it and I have workshed's GSB which is CM7.

I believe the scripts originated from: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8274824&postcount=2 . So I guess credit goes both to -Stevo- on CM forums and spiicytuna on xda.

Here's to hoping AT&T will pick it up, and also that they don't mess with it.
[Galaxy S II General] AllGamer:
Does verizon runs also on 850/1900 ?

i though they were on CDMA
[Galaxy S II General] open1your1eyes0:
The international version will work with AT&T but keep in mind AT&T does not offer unlimited data or free tethering.

This is point, Verizon will mod the stock phone to add CDMA radios.
[Galaxy S II General] Papi4baby:
I am on a iphone unlimited plan with them right now. I just can't justify to drop that amount of money for a phone when the plans will cost me the same as getting a subsidized one from them.

Verizon is good in my area, but ATT is better, and the 3G is almost 3 times as fast as Verizon. I also hate the voice quality of Verizon, my area is too saturated with Verizon customers.
[Galaxy S II General] open1your1eyes0:
Of course if you are already grandfathered into AT&T's unlimited plan then you're fine. I would still be weary of tethering though because there have been recent news of AT&T cracking down on unauthorized tethering for those who don't pay for it.
[Galaxy S II General] buttes:
Yay! Can't believe they fit 4G into such a thin phone, the other 4G phones are quite thick.
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:

It says "Samsung Charge" 4/7/2011 right in the pic.
[Galaxy S II General] Virtue94:
Hopefully this means that T-Mobile will see the SGS2 by late April. That would be the case since T-Mobile is GSM right?
[Galaxy S II General] MikeyMike01:
Bing, bloat ware, contracts, delayed updates. Oh joy.
[Galaxy S II General] Kevin Gossett:
This won't launch in May. Doesn't make sense. Why would they release this less than a month after the Charge? Plus, each carrier will make their alterations, just like they did with the original GS line, and that will push a release well into the summer/fall
[Galaxy S II General] open1your1eyes0:
This is correct T-Mobile does use GSM bands.

The Charge is not planning to be released as a flagship device so it is not competing with it. Also since they already have a roadmap out, that means they already have at least several samples for the network and are working on bugs and extra support to meet a deadline.
[Galaxy S II General] Kevin Gossett:
That roadmap is highly suspect... Many are skeptical of it's authenticity. And the Charge isn't a flagship device for Samsung, but it does have the Droid branding for Verizon, so it doesn't make sense that VZW would launch a superior device a month later. Just my .02
[Galaxy S II General] open1your1eyes0:
While I agree the authenticity is skeptical it is the only thing we have to go on thus far and we have no received word from Verizon or anyone else proving this false. Also my point was that it was not a flagship device for Verizon either.

If the international version works with 850/1900, I'll get UK or Singapore version.
[Galaxy S II General] Kabantik:
So if Verizon grabs our lovely S2 and refits it with a CDMA radio are we looking at the same BS Verizon produced with the Droid 2 Global where it's a """Global Phone""" but it won't work on any other network because Verzion is a criminal organization? Will Sprint/AT&T have the buying power to keep GSM based S2s in circulation? Living here in Canada it's frustrating to be technologically backwards, it's even more frustrating when a greedy corporation like Verizon locks the phone down in the US, eliminating it's availabilty in Canada and making it virtually impossible to get one down there unlocked for up here.....

--+

I suppose I could always order a phone from the international market but with it's market pull (considering it's the only phone that doesn't seem to have any compromise except for the 3 button versus 4 button push) it'll take forever to get one :/
[Galaxy S II General] dhruvmalik:
I am sure you will find sites a few weeks after the launch that are selling the international version for a reasonable price.

Unfortunately, the carrier takes exclusivity of a variation and does not allow the manufacturer to reproduce a similar version. SO NOW you are stuck with a device meant for only 1 carrier...
[Galaxy S II General] Virtue94:
Really? Then what's the Captivate and the Giorgio Armani SGS? They look exactly the same...
[Galaxy S II General] BeeDubs:
I'm guessing September for Verizon version. 1 year anniversary of Fascinate.

[Galaxy S II General] teh_pwnage:
if it follows that kind of road map then verizon will be the last to get it as telus was the last to get it here in the great white north..... if that's the speculated road map that is.....
[Galaxy S II General] b15love:
actually pretty accurrate. When I worked at Verizon there big rumors(within the company and before these rumors even hit the net) that the iphone was comming, and it would be announced Dec/Jan. Every damn customer would ask me since it came out for At&t. Told em if it doesnt get announced by the end of Jan, then it will never come. So yes, at times the info isnt correct, but I think usually the verizon stuff is.

Verizon has every reason to want this phone considering its success among android devices.

It seems as the community grows that more people are in search for the very basics of getting started with modifying their G-Tab. Instead of searching through hundreds of posts is there a way to have the basic threads always on top?

Ex. How to in install clockwork

In the developers sections you will find a good amount of 'Stickies' that tell how to do all of the things you are asking for. They are very handy and usually kept updated so you don't have to read hundered's of posts to find the information you need, it is kept in the first post of the thread.

Is there another alternative besides the obvious, for programming with the Xoom, with a better emulator, the current one is very slow.
[Android Software Development] smaskell:
emulation of a different architecture is always going to be slow
[Android Software Development] laydros:
I saw something interesting about the Android emulator compared to the iOS development emulator.

Apparently the iOS emulator is basically a version of iOS made to run on x86, so it runs super fast. The Android emulator is truly emulating the hardware, so it is slow. That sounds like it is easier to work on the iOS development, but it means something might feel fast when you are developing, but when you deploy it is way slower, or you could possibly even hit some funky hardware bugs.

And on the flipside, Android development makes it super easy to send the app over to the device (any device, doesn't have to have anything special except one checkbox) but with iOS the process is more involved.

This was great before the Nexus One, when every device was running the same Qualcomm CPU with the same screen, just different memory, camera, or buttons. But now a developer pretty much has to have a Xoom to have the same smooth development experience.

Pluses and minuses to both.
