[Galaxy S I9000 General] zacharias.maladroit:
(unfortunately I've already used up all 'thanks' for today)

thanks a lot GadgetSam and LeeDroid !

seems like I now can remove my workaround (hardcoding to optimize the wifi-driver with -Os only) :)

I'll have a look at that later if

drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/dhd_linux.c: In function 'dhd_open':

drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/dhd_linux.c:1907:18: error: array subscript is below array bounds

still happens with latest wifi code

thanks again ! :)

edit:

lol - wrong file

I meant dhd_linux.c
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zacharias.maladroit:
ok, since I got several PMs already on this issue I'm posting the possible ways to solve this:

there are 2 solutions to tackle this issue:

- you fix the array errors in the code

- you force the wifi driver to compile in -Os (optimize for size) mode

the latter one is mainly used in several SGS kernels right now since e.g. fixing the array failures with some drivers strangely leads to non-functioning or broken wifi behavior (not connecting, etc.) [at least for me it did]

e.g.

in drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/Makefile

First off, wrong forum, should be in general.

Find Rotos thread and follow the instructions carefully.

Sent from my mind. Or a Galaxy Tab
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btyork:
Yes, wrong forum, but just to get you in the right direction:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=894763 Is the pre-rooted firmware from rotohammer, you will need this.

Secondly: I recommend the Overcome kernel and rom for your tab, as it's very stable and pretty much just a great rom. You can find it here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=894763

In the second thread, go down to the section "IF your Tab does not boot after flashing the kernel and hangs at the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen, you must follow the following procedure" section of the original post and follow the direction exactly as stated.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modstar:
Okey sorry about that i posted it in wrong section.

Thnx for the answers but i want it to be as if i buyed it from the store.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btyork:
Than you will have to find the stock rom that came with your device... and depending on the exact model that could vary.

Although regular tethering is more popular, I find myself needing to use Zune reverse tethering (trying to spoof Navigon server) and can't. I know this worked on my phone before because it's basically how I got the NoDo update in the first place; by using the PPTP Hungary .pbk. So what gives?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunfighter77:
I'm running TNT 4.2.5 on my GTablet and its working perfectly. My friend has a gtablet that has problems with his market not able to let him complete downloads.

SO to try and fix:

I reflashed tnt cuz i thought he did it wrong, switched to Vegan, switched back to tnt, NVflash to stock and back to tnt, and now finally I just booted a recovery of MY backup into his tablet.

Booting my recovery works. Market now downloads fine. Went in did a data wipe to reset the account. Input his account info in....NOW Market will not complete download. GAHAH.

SO to test if his account is wonky:

I data wiped my tablet, input his account info...market downloads fine.

WTF is happening?!?

why wont his tablet market work with his account info?

I read through a lot of the threads and not sure if I came across anyone having this problem. I saw a few threads that related to not having market complete the downloads, but supposedly NVFLASH to stock and New rom fixed it?

any insight is truly appreciated!!

Thanks.

Things are starting to make sense, in a very bad sort of way.

Google has also tried to hold up the release of Verizon (VZ) Android devices that make use of Microsoft's (MSFT) rival Bing search engine, according to two people familiar with the discussions.

[Fascinate General] micdawg12:
Shouldn't have used bing in the first damn place.
[Fascinate General] wideopn11:
If google really wants to stick it to the carriers, they should release the source code straight to developers at XDA and other sites so as to by pass carriers and reward the users who work to improve the OS for free. If the carriers don't want to play ball, leave them on the bench.
[Fascinate General] dmasjz45:
you do understand we need samsungs version of google's source code correct?
[Fascinate General] FDro:
This would make sense and apply only to new phones under development. Why would they hold up a phone/software that is already on the market and as a result punish the consumer? Once again, dont read too deep into things.
[Fascinate General] Falcyn:
This is totally wrong. FTA:

"Google has also tried to hold up the release of Verizon (VZ) Android devices that make use of Microsoft's (MSFT) rival Bing search engine, according to two people familiar with the discussions."

The keyword is "devices." Google can't do anything whatsoever about devices that are already released -- at least, ones running Froyo or Gingerbread since both have already been released through AOSP. Honeycomb, that's a different story, and they can try to hold up new device releases through license negotiations -- but Samsung does not need to work with or go through Google at all to update pre-3.0 devices.

To put it another way, Google has nothing whatsoever to do with an existing device's upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 or 2.3.
[Fascinate General] beray5:
I wished Google would do something about existing devices, Bing and VZW are really F**king with my android experience and joy.
[Fascinate General] onemotodroid:
GREAT business practice - google owns the OS code and does the development - mfg are getting code for free

Android will be on 48% of smartphones by 2012

Why not police the UI?
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
The liscense ring that includes Google, Samsung, VZW, and Microsoft is complicated and spans multiple products. Don't be so certain you know the jockeying and agreements between them. Its evil no doubt. Please offer up a better explanation of why the fascinate update is lagging all others so drastically.
[Fascinate General] wideopn11:
The point is to by pass carriers in an effort to convince them to stop mucking up code with unwanted bloat. With android taking hold of the market, who will carriers turn to if google refuses to give them code. Windows? No thanks. Apple is only interested in iphone. If cricket was the only carrier getting android and getting quick updates because they play nice with google, I think a lot of people would switch. A lot.
[Fascinate General] beray5:
I don't know how it is for native English speakers, but Bing voice search does not "speak" Engrish, Google voice search had no problem with it. :D
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
Because Verizon has extra "customization" on top of Samsung's "customization", and Verizon also has no motivation to make it a priority at all to release Froyo to us... why would they? They already have your money. The vast majority of users won't realize they're so far behind because they're not interested in such technical and political matters. The only people that will get upset are the tiny, tiny number of people on these forums... and I'd be surprised if the Fascinate was one of their top selling phones ("it's not a Droid!!!!"), so the Fascinate user base is likely fairly small compared to their other phones... and now they likely won't be selling it for much longer.

That makes far more sense than 'EVILOCITY!!!!!!!'. Sure, Verizon is still a jackass, but it's not a conspiracy to take over the world.
[Fascinate General] FDro:
The fascinate was the last SGS variant to get launched in the US for major carriers and was also the most bloated with VZW crap ware, logically it will be the last to get the update. No need to dream up conspiracy theories.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Replacing Google search with Microsoft Bing on an android phone is so strange and wrong, its very possibly behind the problems getting froyo out. It's also the reason the fascinate wasn't a "Droid". So my original post still holds. Again, we're explaining why the verizon galaxy S is lagging all others.
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Droid is branding that VZW pays royalties to obtain; they had contractual agreements with Motorola to release phones with Droid branding around the same time. The lack of exclusivity of the Fascinate renders it a poor investment under the Droid brand and thus was pimped out to MS for extra change. Your assumption holds no ground.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
VZW also has Droid contracts for HTC, so I'm missing the point you are making about Motorola.

Samsung galaxy S phones outside VZW were updated long ago: Samsung alone is not the issue

VZW phones like Droid X were updated long ago: VZW alone is not the issue.

Hmmm, what could be different about the fascinate then? What could it be? Well, could it be... BING!
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Read the post over again, I addressed your questions.
[Fascinate General] madcow706:
From some of the rumors I have read the Fascinate is not part of the droid line because Samsung has been adamant about building their own brand, the Galaxy S line. If one of their phones is going to be a Droid branded it won't be one from the Galaxy S line. Also, who cares if it runs Bing search. Bing is a usable search engine, really people, quit hating. Google is more then likely going to have to go to court to be forced play ball and let other other search providers integration in Android (like Bing, or Yahoo, or whoever). The problem with the update is either Verizon wants something included or fixed and Samsung sucks at coding. I know my next Verizon phone won't be a Samung, it will probably be the Droid X2 (if it is indeed Tegra 2 dual core and 1gb of Ram, with a qhd screen). I like the SAMOLED screens but Samsung's software support of their product is truly pathetic for such a large company. Even if they haven't released the update via Verizon, where is the workable source code? Its just sad.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
If you're that upset about it, and so close minded that you think Bing is the sole reason that Froyo hasn't been released yet, go get a Droid phone.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Just getting the word out and fostering discussion. Pony up a superior theory or go home.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
They may be able to get OEMs to hold back devices that are yet to be released by threatening to pull their early access to code. What is holding back an update going to do for an already released device? It's doing Google no further harm by holding back the update, and if anything, it's going to hurt their market share because people could be waiting to buy the phone until Froyo is actually released and holding onto their iPhone, Blackberry, whatever. Bing already is on every Fascinate out there, so if they have a problem with it, they're about 6-7 months late to the party.
[Fascinate General] Bobboman:
madcow706, i'm going to speak as someone who was forced over to the Fascinate because Best buy lost my phone on repair and had to have it junked out, I had an HTC Droid Incredible, one of THE BEST phones on verizon, and i accidentally cracked the screen

I DID NOT WANT BING, and i was rather pissed when my selection for a replacement came down to the Droid X, LG Vortex, or the Fascinate, i went with the fascinate because i don't like Motorola and their locked down bootloaders and i knew that i could at least put a custom rom on it, however i'm finiding that the scene is lacking, i was lucky that the Leaked Froyo had Google Search on it, and that running Launcherpro over touchwiz doesn't screw up too much

my point is Verizon if i wanted bing i'd have downloaded it long ago, i don't like microsoft and i try to not pay for anything microsoft(while i run Vista ultimate x64 i did get it for free in a contest) and i fear i'm gonna be stuck with this piece of plastic until November when i am due for an upgrade hopefully the incredible 2 will still be out or another decent HTC phone will be out and about
[Fascinate General] xjestersdeadx:
Well, I had a Droid phone, and I have to agree with Scrappy. Not that I think the current release has anything to do with this article, but if Google was a little more strict about "customizing" a year ago, we probably would have our upgrade already.

There's only one reason that VZW put Bing on the Galaxy, and you just need to follow the money. VZW must have had a financial reason, i.e., they got paid a nice fee, to replace Google with Bing.

Not just add Bing, but replace.

Would Microsoft be okay with a Windows 7 phone getting de-binged by Sprint, and replaced with Google search? I don't think so.

No one entity is to blame here, but I think VZW saw dollar signs at the expense of their customers. Otherwise, why do it? What reason would there be to put the time and expense into de-Googling a phone and adding Bing?

I'm not hating on the phone either, I love it. But the hold off on the upgrade has just gotten silly.
[Fascinate General] madcow706:
I can understand some of the frustration, but really we don't own the software on these phones, and if Bing bothers you that much you should probably have gone with a different phone given the opportunity. Its like buying a Nintendo Wii and then complaining about the channels that come preloaded. Bing isn't that much worse then Google, its really all perception. When the day comes that you see Google as evil and money hungry corporation as you see Microsoft, you probably will support the next perceived under dog. Google is the #1 search engine in the world, they don't need us to defend them or lament other software integration they put into Android (or manufacturers or carriers do). Google wanted this. And now that Android is gaining market share they want control back. Its all part of their dominance plan. But back to Bing, and the hold up of an update to Froyo. I don't know what the update hold up is, but I can tell you this, Samsung can go suck it. This is a slap in the face to consumers. At this point its Motorola and HTC, and I don't think I will come back to Samsung once I leave. What a waste of a phone.
[Fascinate General] xjestersdeadx:
Telling people "if Bing bothers you that much..you probably should have gone with a different phone" is like me telling you if Samsung bothers you that much, ("What a waste of a phone") you probably should have gone with Motorola or HTC in the first place. No offense, but that's kind of a Captain Hindsight remark isn't it? :D

Everyone knows all that info now,but a healthy discussion can still be had about how VZW decided to do what they did. Entire books are made on this type of subject.

My phone is entirely de-binged, so Bing is not bothering me at all by the way. ;)
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
But I got the phone in November. We were told the update would be out in November, and that it would let us choose between Google or Bing for the search engine. Of course I immediately rooted, but I was still expecting the update we were promised, and here we are in April, still no sign of an update and the phone is fast approaching EOL. That's the problem. We were lied to.
[Fascinate General] bigjobber69:
I hope it just happens sooner than later, prob not though. LOL
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Who said the update would be out?
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
Samsung and Verizon. They said September before it released, then in September, they said sometime in November. I bought it Nov 1st expecting the update sometime that month.
[Fascinate General] landshark68:
Don't forget the next word from verizon/samsung which was "definitely by the end of 2010." Now all we get is soon............. I'm rooted and rocking sc 2.9.2, so it only bothers me from the standpoint of being lied to, and no real solid info or explanation for the delay.
[Fascinate General] bigjobber69:
+1 Sharky I feel lied to all the way. But WE got froyo so the jokes on them!
[Fascinate General] FDro:
Link to this.
[Fascinate General] Bobboman:
did you even read my post? I chose the Fascinate because it was the only phone that came close my requirements, given Best Buy's rather ****ty selection that was offered to me to replace my droid incredible...

I didn't choose the droid X because of its screen size, locked bootloader and custom skin(my girlfriend has the Droid 2 Global and has gone through 3 warranty replacements because of Motoblur)

I didn't Choose the LG Vortex because of the screen Size, or screen type, i wasn't going to downgrade in phones from a 1 Ghz snapdragon to a 600Mhz and a 3.2 inch screen with a resolution of 320×480

I chose the Fascinate because it had a close enough screen size(I prefer 3.7") and had a unlocked bootloader which means i could root use the leak to Froyo and rip bing out which i did...

given the choice i would have gladly gone back to my Droid Incredible but because they had already discontinued the Incredible, and the Black Tie Protection plan only stated they had to replace the phone with a like phone of the equal of lesser price i had to choose between what was offered to me, i would have gone with the Iphone but alas it was like $100 more than my limit
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
http://free-pc-guides.com/news/sams...along-with-the-android-2-2-froyo-update-04411

Can't find anymore links right now, gotta do some digging around, but Samsung and VZ came out and said it would be updated in September, then November after September passed.
[Fascinate General] CDODGE:
This is where open source will hurt google. They allow companies to do what ever they want with it even if it cripples it.

MS was smart to do this as it shows you that by google having no regulations on Android will end up hurting them.

The only people we can really be upset with is VZ for making this deal with MS to allow them to put Bing on it.

I ended up giving up on Android and VZ. I switched to ATnT and got the focus for $49.00 and I could not be happier. It is so much faster than Android and I have most of the apps i need, sure there are a few that I miss but ill get by. I really got sick of having to hack and load custom roms just to get the phone to work the way i wanted it too. I also love the live tiles wich i really thought were ugly at first but now I actually like them more then most of the widgets andoid has. The problem with widgets is that they were not built in a uniform way and some were nice and some were ugly and they were diffrent size and color. etc.

So sad that a great phne like the fascinate is crippled by some politics crap from the Bing/VZ deal.
[Fascinate General] joshnichols189:
This does not remove your hindsight bias remark.. sorry and are you even aware of the irony? The droid x with its locked bootloader got a functioning gingerbread before us ;)
[Fascinate General] madcow706:
Sorry, I didn't mean to insult anyone. Really use the phone you want to, but we have to pick and choose our battles. To complain about a money making partnership between VZW and Microsoft for Bing search integration will fall on deaf ears as its money to VZW. I got the fascinates during Christmas sales, they were $50 dollars a piece. In hindsight, I probably would not have gotten them, because the lack of an official update to 2.2 is pretty sorry. Yeah, it sucks that because VZW and Microsoft have a partnership that Bing is integrated and the only option in the official rom, but that isn't a big of deal to me as the lack of official updates or even updates to 2.2 (as you can't load some apps until you have 2.2). I hack my phone, but not my dad's or my wife's (both with fascinates, and I have no desire to keep updating custom rom's on 3 different phones). Honestly, all the hacking and custom kernels is cool, but also having a working official rom with Updates to Froyo or Gingerbread would be nice as well. I can tell you one other thing, I think the antenna on this phone sucks, as HTC and Motorola phones get better signals. But I am gonna wait until the Incredible 2 or Droid X 2 come out before I take advantage of my best buy warranty. Right now everything else is the same or older, wouldn't make sense to get.
[Fascinate General] rand4ll:
This is an odd theory IMO. Still, I put more blame on VZW than on samsung for the delays. The other galaxy S models got froyo much sooner than we did, meaning that TW didn't get in the way as much as commentators make you believe...Its a massive fail on VZW, however, I still like the fascinate more than any other android phone out there. And even when i went from 2.1 to 2.2, i failed to see what the massive fuss was about, even if it was wrong for them to lie.
[About XDA developers] MarkusPO:
http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/04/i-think-im-having-gene-amdahl-moment.html

I don't quite understand what Google is saying, other than they're not releasing code because it's not ready, and are busy bringing Honeycomb features to mobile devices. Looking at the codebase news for Honeycomb on the dev blog, and the cool new features it brings - from what I see mainly stuff that will give devs wonderful powers - it should be truely awesome...

However, with these dual core phones being released clocked at 1.2ghz, it makes me wonder if Ice Cream is going to be needing some serious "oomph". Honeycomb has a dual A9 min requirement, so this would bring about upgrade issues for the Nexus One, and Nexus S if so.

These cool new features will come at a processor cost for sure.

Is there a way or an app that will allow you to project your tablet screen to a tv? For work we need a TV that will allow us to project the tablet screen on it. We have yet to buy a TV yet and we currently have Galaxy S tablet as an option or the Moto Xoom as another option. Any suggestions? I've Googled for a solution and I've also looked through the market and haven't found anything. Being able to project wireless would be MUCH preferred.

Thanks!

You have the software on the tab already its called All share but you have to use a Samsung TV and that also has to have All Share on it.
