[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bstylz911:
does anyone know how to change the mms LIMIT size on the g2 sense roms?

my default mms limit on my message app is 300k and i wanna change it to 3500k.

ive been looking around and i have not found a solution -___-

appreciate any help.

thank you in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
To go up that high you would need to rip apart the Mms.apk, something I've actually been working on for CM/Vanilla since Calkulin over in the EVO 4G section managed to do it. He did it with the Sense mms app so it's a bit different and I'm newish to this whole decompile/recompile business.

Here's a link to his stuff if anybody want's to give it a go (maybe it'll work with our Sense ROMs?).

Handcent would still compress images to a crap 1KB-25KB size when sending since it relied on the Mms.apk to do some of the work, even if you set the limit to 1MB or higher (now you can set it to 5MB, says only for the EVO though). Lately though with CM7 I noticed that it's not an issue anymore. Maybe it's a self reliant app, in which case you may be able to completely remove the Mms.apk. I'll try it later and report back. The stock Mms app still seems to compress though, at least last time I checked it did.

That's all I have for you right now. Hope it helps.

on Virtuous rom i was on 3500k mms. now on SEGA rom the limit is 300k.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Yeah, some devs change these limits. Doesn't really matter much if they don't edit the compression though which *i think* virtuous does.

You guys are the experts.. which Rom or load is going to work best for me. I really only do the following:

- Touchdown (email/exchange)

- gmail

- GPS maps (I like the sprint one actually)

- tether USB rightnow with PDAnet

- pictures to facebook

- facebook

- read the news/web stuff

If you watch it from the beginning its just black, if you skip forward it shows the video as if it were paused while the audio is playing.

Its hard to explain, but does anyone know how to fix this? Does any one else have this problem? DO i have a broken sd card?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmstwo002:
I've had my EVO since June of 2010, and never installed a screen protector. The EVO screens are very durable and IMO almost scratch-proof from normal use. Mine still looks like it did when I took it out of the box (and yes, I've dropped it, stuck it in my pocket with keys, etc). Personally, I wouldn't waste money on a screen protector.

:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamantypants:
^Lol I'm not that careful with my devices. Not to say I drop them all the time (I've only dropped my Evo once), but if I didn't have an Invisible shield my Evo would've been scratched to death.

That being said, that's probably the screen protector I'd recommend. As far as a mirrored screen protector, it's going to depend on the one you buy. I've used them on a really old feature phone and my old HTC Touch Pro. My sister had one on her Palm Pixi and I have friends with various iPhones with the same protector.

On all of them, the screen appears darker, the colors were distorted, it gives you literally impossible usage in daylight, and often unresponsive screens. Not to mention the mirror affect is only usable in the brightest conditions in which case it is impossible to use your screen, no exaggeration. Maybe I've just been around bad protectors or maybe it's the Las Vegas sun, but the only time I've ever seen a mirrored screen work was on the LG Shine.

Now, remember Plan B and use it the next time you lose the phone. It works. I didn't lose my phone, but I tried it out. GPS reception in my home is poor, so it showed the phone in the wrong room, but certainly in the correct house, close enough. It's not something you want to leave on your phone, because it sends a constant stream of text messages to your email with the location of the phone, but if you lose the phone, it will show you where it is, assuming any GPS signal can be received and it has network access.

Rooting Galaxy S 4G & Deleting Fota Files

Hi guys - I wanted to shared with all of you the methods that I used to Root my phone and getting rid of the FOTA files and "Bloatware" which free up ALOT of space.

****I want to thanks "Theshadowman" for the Fota files and to the developer of SuperOneClick, the awesome tool that makes rooting possible.****

Before this fix I was getting the "Internal low space" message.

Let's get started

Programs and Files you will need:

-Samsung Galaxy S 4G Drivers 32-bit: http://rapidshare.com/files/456420295/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.rar

-Samsung Galaxy S 4G Drivers 64-bit: http://rapidshare.com/files/456420354/usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64.zip

-SuperOneClick 1.7 (To root your phone)

-File Expert (to Unzip files)

-Super Manager (Access to /data/fota)

-Fota.zip (Files that will free up all that space)

Additional Files

-Bloatware (Thanks to Chadster)

http://db.tt/RFzd364

***Note:*** You will find all the files you need attached at the end of this post with the exception of Root Checker and Titanium Backup. You can download those by simply doing a search in the Market.

How to Root your Galaxy S 4G

1- Download Samsung Galaxy S 4G driver and install it. Make sure you know what version of Windows you've got. (I posted links for 32bit and 64bit)

2- In your Phone, Go to Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging.

Note: You will have to check USB debugging or else it will not work.

3- Download SuperOneClick 1.7

4- Open SuperOneClick 1.7

5- Under exploit MAKE SURE you select "rageagainstthecage" and then click Root. Let it do what it needs to do Note: the whole process will take between 5-15 minutes

6- Download Root Checker from Market

7- Run the test and it will confirm you that your phone is Rooted

How to Delete Fota files

Step 1: Download all three files in your computer and send them to your email and open them from your phone.

Alternative method: Download them directly to your phone.

Step 2: Install File Expert

Step 3: Install Super Manager

Step 4: Open File Expert and navigate to the directory aka folder that you downloaded the files to.

Step 5: Press and Hold the fota.zip file and select Unzip files

Note: File Expert will unzip files by default in same folder.

It will create a Fota folder with two files fota_delta_dp1 and fota_delta_dp2

Step 6: Open Super Manager and then open setup and check the "Enable ROOT function" then press menu on your phone and switch to r/w (stands for read and write)

Step 7: Navigate to the folder where you have the 2 Unzipped fota files (fota_delta_dp1 and fota_delta_dp2)

Step 8: Select both and cut them

Step 9: Navigate to /data/fota and paste the 2 files in this folder

Step 10:Reboot phone and WAWAWIWA! between 150mb-300mb of free space

If you want to get rid of Bloatware - Download Titanium Backup from Market open it and uninstall every app that you don't need.

Warning: Becareful with what you uninstall.

Hope this helps and let me know if have any questions.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] makavelicruz:
damn dude that worked! thank you, this helps the phone a lot right?? Hey man I was also wondering if you know a way to fix the lagging for this phone?? I've heard of oneclicklagfix thru superuser once u root the phone, but I can't access it because, like I was told not too long ago, there isn't a oneclicklagfix available for the sgs g4 right now. any pointers? thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eclipse26:
Worked perfect. Have 400mb free. I'm also wondering about the a lagfix for this device.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] makavelicruz:
now you've tried using that titanium backup app...now how would you know which bloatware you can removed and which you can't.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jboy15:
Just in time omg!!! Lol just got the galaxy s 4g today for $280 ahhhh yeahhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
Its safe to say that if you didn't read about a lagfix in this forum, then there is none yet. I would only attempt tools for other phones if your an advanced user.

If you have the bloat zip file, use that as a template to delete apps. Im not that experienced.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MarkP80nj:
If you use the paid version, you can freeze the app first to see if it causes any problems.(trust me, it's worth the money)

If not, just do as fknfocused said. Download chadstet's bloat zip (in the themes and apps forum) and use it to see which bloat can be removed.

But it is pretty basic. If it ooks like 3rd party software, just rip that sucker out of your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] moshe22:
I'm glad this helped. No lagfix yet for this phone, but once you get rid of all the bloatware you should experience less lag. I'm pretty sure it will come out but I am giving it time.

Here is a list of apps i have removed and haven't experienced any issues after deleting this apps:

Folder organizer

Kindle

Amazon mp3

Double twist

airsync

facebook

news & weather

T-mobile tv

video chat (qik)

The fota.zip rocks! It was driving me crazy that I was removing the bloatware, but not gaining any internal storage. It went from 24M to 356M after your fix. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Chamgea:
If we replace the fota (firmware over the air) are we not going to be able to get our firmware updates over the air?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Quite likely, without restoring them, if you've used the space freed for something else.

The files aren't really replaced, but the "placeholder" files that reserve space for FOTA have been truncated to zero length.

Removing the files completely will likely allow them to be regenerated, assuming you have cleared the space for them on the internal storage, should you want to get any FOTA (which, unless you're running stock firmware or are a dev and need the new firmware, is an open question).

this is awsome! great walk though. i wish i had this a month ago when i got this device but i had to search and learn and ask questions before i got 310mbs free! even though superoneclick 1.7 to root only took me like 2 mins. for anyone wanting more from there phone this is the way to go. im still running stock with Launcher Pro Plus.

Ok. So I'm a noobie.

Go ahead. I know someone (or more) will blast me but here is my question. After searching all over the forum for a definition, What does FOTA stand for? I assume it has something to do with OTA (over the air). Factory OTA? Firmware OTA? What?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
2nd one, Firmware Over The Air
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] btamxx:
So why delete the FOTA bloatware? Is it because once moded they are useless because no more OTA from the manufacturer? I had my hands on a rooted Cygen Galaxy for nearly a week. I have a new Galaxy 4g and now I want it moded but fearful of bricking. (Fixed SSA income) I also read somewhere that T-Mobile can tell when a phone has been rooted and then set back to factory defaults, and void my warranty. Then I read somewhere there is a method to hide that it has been returned to factory specs. Straighten me out?
