I think you can install custom Roms to your inspire, I read at the dev section that after you install custom rom you have to download the patch for the sound fix. It's all in there at the dev section.

I updated my X10i with the new hotfix I'm wondering if yahoo video calling is working for anyone i got z's beta 4 plus the hot fix
[Captivate General] anybody99:
I bought captivate from ebay, the phone came rooted.

I installed few applications to unlock the phone, tried to use PC .bat files to extract the code, no luck, I was getting no code at all or FFFFFF.

Later I found out that in my main sd directory i have a 40mb nv data with FFFFFF.

I am not sure if this was generated as a backup .bak file from efs folder, so I went and installed terminol and tried accessing the efs folder, no luck, but I can access other folders. if i access efs it says premission denied, but using app android mate i am able to browse efs folder but it shows 0 files. other folders are ok.

My question is, after 2 days of headache, what should I do now, I have been searching all day long for answers.

Also if i run .bat files from PC while device connected, sometimes i also get permission denied message.

I'ts possible this phone was flashed before because I get the FFFFF from nv data?

plz help.

ok i was able to copy via emulator using this line

busybox cp /efs/nv_data.bin /sdcard

to sdcard and the file was 2mb in size, i have another .bak file 40mb in size, so, is this some kind of an application did this to the phone?

The phone is

2.1 update 1

i897ucjf6

kernel 2.6.29

eclair

i also have md5 file copied to sd is 1kb file.
[Captivate General] mcord11758:
I would say the phone definitely was flashed. With android mate did you allow for hidden files or something like that. I use root explorer.

Can you make and receive calls?

Miui
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
First of all, you don't seem like you know what you're doing, so back up /efs in its entirety to the sd card, then again to your computer before you do anything else and break something.

Secondly, if you're on 2.2 (which I assume you are), there is a thread that tells you how to do a carrier unlock with step by step instructions. Search for 'carrier unlock' and it should be on the first page of results.
[Captivate General] anybody99:
nothing like hidden files or anything, i'll try but i get accessed already with emulator

i have a backup of most of the efs content, that's 2 files or so, i will try to search for additional files. I think one of the apps did a .bak file to the nav_data and saved it in the sdcard folder.

i'm on 2.1 i assume it was flashed forwards and backwards because the nv data is 40mb but has FFFFFF in it.

what do you think?

I saw this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8182729#post8182729

i think my last resort. I'll try to search for the thread you specified but im running 2.1.

p.s no luck on hidden files i cant find that setting.

p.s i bought this phone on ebay cant make calls until i unlock it for my sim. but i do have wireless connection.

p.s my kies keeps saying "connecting" to the phone, but that's i guess a different problem, i run drivers and kies full from samsung site.

[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
*#7465625# <- Dial that number. Does it say 'off' for everything? If it does, you already have an unlocked phone.

If you're on 2.1, you might as well try the SGS Unlock tool from the market in the off chance that it WASN'T flashed forward and back to 2.1. If it was, there isn't really a reason to stay on 2.1. You might as well flash to some 2.2 rom and follow this procedure I mentioned earlier:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=831569&highlight=carrier+unlock
[Captivate General] anybody99:
it says network lock is ON.

i tried the market app tools, 2-3 tools, doesn't work. they doesn't work because i have extracted nv data and the code is FFFFFF. now i don't know if it was flashed forwards and backwards, i'm just assuming.

rom 2.1 or 2.2 means the version software? can i update to 2.3? what's the best way to update it?

also i have 2 bin/bak files, 1 is 2mb and 1 is 40mb, which one should i use with the thread you specified?

in efs folder i had nv data bin as 2mb and in sdcard i had nv data bak 40mb

nv data bak file created just yesterday i think as the date says 29march.

his Step 1: Install / Verify that you have a v2.1 ROM or v2.2 ROM installed.

does it mean i can use it on my 2.1 as well?
[Captivate General] modest_mandroid:
I have no idea why one of yours is 40mb, but it sounds messed up. Both nv_data.bin and .nv_data.bak are supposed to be 2mb. You can use either, as they're supposed to be the exact same file. There shouldn't be any files in /efs that are 40mb.

You're all over the place. You really need to spend a day or two reading the forums; especially the stickied threads about how to flash a new rom.

And yes, it means you can use that procedure on a 2.1 rom.
[Captivate General] anybody99:
it was nv_data.bak inside sdcard folder, not efs.

but anyway, i think i got it. in that thread you specified some people said there's an helroz app does the same thing, unlocking without using a code, so i used it and it worked, network lock is now off and it catches orange provider.

i think the only thing left is to root it to a new version.
[Captivate General] bornjamerican:
I would flash back to stock 2.1 using Odin and do a Master Clear. Then root phone again and and install CWM. After that flash a custom rom.
[Captivate General] hd779:
Have you tried the app Galaxy S Unlock from the app store, worked well for me.
[Captivate General] anybody99:
Fixed problem.

Got the phone from ebay was locked, was unable to unlock with most market apps, but helroz app got it unlocked the same way his thread specifies, by replacing the FFFFFFF. my nv data file was bad but imie code was ok. i got it unlocked, then flashed to stock + master clear with odin, then i got unregistered error with kies mini program, the nv_data created by the helroz app wasnt so good and had bad product code, followed the thread at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=881162 to fix the file, replaced old file, first rooted, then used emulator and busybox with cmd only.

got a good product code, then did once again a master clear, then upgraded to 2.2 via kies mini, got a fresh version and a clear phone.

i spent 3 days on that averaging 10 hours a day. madness.

I have tried a hard reset (holding vol up/down, turning on, press vol down) but it doesn't help...

The screen is always going wierd when restarting etc, I'm guessing a faulty screen or the connector has come loose etc..

But I cannot open the device due to its warranty :( It has not been dropped, wet or anything of such...

Looks like I need to send it back for repair or replacement....

Hi there,

I'm selling my DHD in a weeks time, making the dreaded move to the iPhone 4. I'm a bit apprehensive seeing as i started off on a Samsung Galaxy S and moved to the DHD and have always enjoyed my Android phones, but its time to try something different.

Would this be the safest way to get rid of all my personal data etc on this phone before selling?

1. Remove SD card (as i wont sell the phone with this included)

2. Factory reset on phone.

3. Clockwork mod wipe phone clean and clear cache

4. Clear Dalvik cache

Anything else i'm leaving out that i should do?

I'd recommend not only wiping with your recovery, but also resetting the phone back to a stock ROM by running the RUU.

This will fully wipe recovery and restore the phone to as it was when it first came out of the box.

If the buyer wants a rooted phone, you could then just root it for them or the chances are they will have a good enough idea of what to do and will be able to do it themselves.

may have something to do with using rom manager. ive never used rom manager and never had this issue. download allmy roms from xda, transfer to my phone, then reboot to recovery and install myself. id say revert to a nandroid and if your phone csnt read your nandroid, used your companys ruu then reroot,re-s-off, repartition, then re nandroid. and from this point forward, use clockworkmod for everything or amonra. im quite sure using rom manager involves a procedure called "fake flash" which does have issues

Yes class 2 would probably not be fast enough. I'm using class 6 and that works fine with MOV and MP4 in 1080p. I'm not sure about the bitrate but it would probably be in the same range as your file.

mddsd, dj_jokke, can you try to play this file?

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0O29FVN3

It's a 1080p .MOV file from a Canon 550D, it contains a h264 track with a bitrate of 45mbps, and a PCM track of 1.5mbps

Can you try to play it and tell me if it runs smooth? I need a tablet like this to watch videos of the camera without carrying a notebook

The ipad and the iphone4 can play that file flawlessly, but I want android that does the same
[Folio 100 General] mddsd:
I've tried your 1080p .MOV file and the Folio can play it (I'm not sure about the sound).

Although every 4 second there is a freeze in the video for about a split second.

It's enough to get annoyed when watching the video...

Tegra 250 has some known limitations when it comes to high profile video.

A video with a bitrate of 45 mps would probably fall into the category of high profile video.

Although I'm not quite sure if this is the reason for the slight freeze in playback.
[Folio 100 General] XoRDy:
Thanks a lot for trying!!

This is the info of the video track, its a Baseline 5.0 h264 stream. Maybe tegra 250 supports it 1080p decoding even at baseline 5.0, but can't do a smooth playback with 45mbps.
