[Epic 4G Android Development] mkasick:
The two are complementary. The crash fix should be tried first since that's well-investigated problem at this point. If you continue to have GPS issues (icon comes up, but can't find satellites after 5 hours of uptime), it's possible this method may help. We're still not quite certain what it does exactly, likely changes something in the baseband NVRAM, but beyond its only known that it does help some folks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] buggerritt:
Also, the restore method is not suggested, it worked for a couple people but, generally restores have a tendency to restore problems, as well as everything else.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
9 hours of uptime is not long enough for the original problem to show.

I also would like to know... I own a HID keyboard, but I couldn't use it.

Actually, I'd like to know also about ROMs that support HID. I am using the latest WakjIUI GB on my Moto Defy, but still can't connect the keyboard...

[HD2 General] Macoko:
Hello, can somebody help me ?, One day my hd2 fall on the floor and my digitizer crash, after that phone works well i had only few cracks on the sreen, 2 months later my phone fall second time but only from low-altitude on the floor. and my lcd stop work phone only vibrate and boot sound works but the lcd is black.do you think is somethink wrong with lcd or with motherboard ??? thanks a lot
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
It is the LCD, it has stopped working. Your digitizer may have stopped working too but you have no way of knowing this though as the LCD is not working. You can get a replacemeant digitizer and LCD that are already connected to repaiar it with. Do a search or have a good look through the threads in the back pages here and you will find a good bit of threads on people that have done this and go to Youtube and have a search there as it is some great DIY videos on doing this on there.
[HD2 General] Macoko:
my digitizer gone away in first crash :) i dissamble it and best place for buy is ebay ? everything here is CE china export :DD
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Yeah ebay will probably be the best place to get replacement components. And just a tip the Euroupean HD2 and T-Mobile HD2 replacement digitzer and LCD combos will fitt in either version of the HD2. But the T-Mobile ones do not have to me soldered to the main board and the Euroupean ones do have to be soldered. Now I do not know if the connector on the ribbon of the T-Mobile ones will be able to plug in to the Eroupean ones as i do not know if they have the resiprocating connector on the main board of the Eroupean models.
[HD2 General] Macoko:
i have european version(non-us) P/N 60H00295-00P with ribbon wich need soldering digitizer so i look on ebay.but still i have care about motherboard:/
[HD2 General] pvii:
Not true!

T-mobile touch is connected to LCD through small connector and European version HD2 touch have to be soldered to LCD, but BOTH versions of 'LCD+touch combo' are connected to M/B through connector, no soldering is needed at all!
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
You may just be right my friend, it does look as if they both have the connector for the Main board. The combos come with the LCD and the digitizer already together, so yes there is no need for soldering. I was under the impression it was not his way. I will do further checking into this later as I just pulled up like 10 different sites but none show a picture that is conclusive enough for me to say for sure but good catch there pvii.
[HD2 General] pvii:
More of that, cable and connectors have the same size and pin nimber, seems that they are interchangeable (LCM+digitizer assembly of course). Motherboards have the same size and shape too, NAND is the only difference I could observe.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
Hello,

I wiil start with the RAM. I've searched the forums for an answer to the lack of ram and people are saying the current kernel isn't supporting 512 ram which is probably bull**** because I saw a Desire HD of a friend, and it uses all the RAM. Other people say that the other Ram goes to graphic use, which is wierd, because again, the Desire HD has 512 RAM.

So my question is did someone knows the real answer? Because I'm pretty disappointed that I have 150 free RAM after I'm killing all the tasks, and some games are laggy from time to time (Angry Birds (espacially Rio), Fruit Ninja). Maybe we can even sue Samsung for publishing false specs XD

My second question is about the GPS, I'm using Phoenix ultimate rom, did anyone tried it with this fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=957164 and saw better results? The GPS in this rom is better then other roms but i'm still find it unusable.

My thirs nd last question is that there's a problem I've saw in all the roms I've been using. When I call someone the volume is high for something like 5-10 sec and then become lower, and the volume in the call itself is pretty low and I can't talk in crowdy places. I know there's a method to increase the volume but I'm not sure how and which volume is recommended. If someone can explain me it will be great!

Thanks in advance, Elad!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluemoon1221:
For the first question.

first of all you are using 150 ram... rather than having that much left. and I dont think there is any rom right now for the captivate that use all the ram..

2. my phone also never gets good gps. just send it back to at&t and keep getting a new one until you have good gps.

3. i really dont know... sorry..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
So you say this this it's the rom that doesn't support? It's really hard for me to believe this because there's a lot of devices that use 2.1 and 2.2 and uses all of the 512 mb.. :/

And for the second answer I'm not living in USA I bought it on ebay because its basebands support my mobile operator basebands lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
For your 3rd question, have you tried different modems?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
first of all, you need to read up on how RAM is used in linux and android. free ram is WASTED ram. there are 100 threads on here about that topic alone. please search
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
I don't know how to use other modem, is there a guide or something? How will I know if the modem is supporting 850 and 2100 (this is the only basebands my mobile operator supports.. I need them both for full signal.

I know what is RAM, but sometimes there are apps that uses a lot of ram like angry birds rio that when in stand-by mode uses almost 100mb ram. But it doesn't matter, if the phone doesn't really have 512mb they shouldn't write in the specs that it does.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
when an app needs the ram it will take it. and the phone does have 512. there are numerous threads about this as well. again, search
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
I've searched, and I found some theories, but still I don't know what's true.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
there IS 512mb RAM, but its not all usable by the USER APPLICATIONS. some of it is used by the SYSTEM to run...

there is literally a massive thread open on this already somewhere. i will find it later

here is some reading for you to do in the meantime:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=792512&highlight=512mb
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crystalhand:
just as others have stated the phone DOES have 512mb of RAM. Just like with your computer you may have 2 gigs of RAM installed but that does not mean that you are going to be able to use all of it. More then likely several hundred mbs of that is going to go to system processes like svchost and explorer.exe. That leaves only part of that available for user applications.

As others have stated ram that is free is doing the phone no good. accesses to ram is hundreds of times faster then accesses to main memory so if a program has to load block into RAM it is going to get slowed down. Its better to just let the phone do its own thing and keep applications that are frequently used in RAM so they dont have to get loaded when needed

I have 2 captivates, the only GPS Fix I found that works, is an article that describes all the settings, and after I understood what each setting was I adjusted them to what makes sense, and it works great now. Accuracy ranges 16 to 32 ft. But none of the video's or anything other article worked.

Here is the title of the article. "Why Samsung Galaxy S i9000 GPS is inaccurate and how to fix it." It is located here on XDA-developers.

And BTW I am using the AT&T release of Froyo. Don't have a need to switch to another ROM, everything works. :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
My previous rom was Serendipity, and I flashed to phoenix few days after because of mysterious problems (which now I know had no connection to the rom). Anyway, I love Phoenix, does anyone have phoenix and can use the GPS?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skatcat31:
In response to the GPS questions:

The GPS is designed to use the aluminum backplate as an antenna. If you have a thick case on it will work terribly. Thin silicon cases work well enough. Another thing to look at is the app you are using for navigation. Try and find telenav for the i9000 and it will work for the captivate. Google navigation will work terribly. If you have a navigation app that uses generated maps(telenav) or stored maps your GPS will be decent enough to use and will help quite a bit. Read plumbobs guide for more information in the captivate development section.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
the captivate has 512 mb ram total

much of that is hardwired for video. the desire hd if it is the same as the inspire has 768mb total so 512 is available for the system to use.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landshark68:
Do you have the correct Samsung drivers downloaded AND installed. After you download the drivers package you need to double click on the file to complete the installation process. Is the battery out the whole time? Are you using USB ports in the back of your computer closest to the motherboard? Are you using the USB cord that came with your phone? Were you holding the down volume button until your phone went into download mode and the yellow rectangle appeared in ODIN? See if any of those help and if not we'll go from there.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twisted.au:
Hi, I am having a bit of an issue using a Gold Card to install the Stock HTC ROM. I have a Vodafone AU branded phone (branded I assume is just their junk on the ROM right? :)). I have issues with Celebrity Charts crashing all the time and want to be rid of their stuff from the ROM. I followed a guide on creating a gold card, it said to use the following command:

$ cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid

This did not work for me, and says the directory does not exist. So they said the alternative was to use:

$ cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:*/cid

So I did this and created my gold card. But, when I run the RUU application (RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.exe), it starts up the process and gets to a point and fails with error 131 not liking the CID.

I notice if I use the command:

$ cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid

I again get another bunch of numbers different from mmc0. With a Vodafone branded Desire HD, which of these am I supposed to use? Also am I running the right RUU application?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Use mmc2 that is the correct CID
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twisted.au:
Just 1 more question, for anyone who has installed the stock ROM from an RUU. Do you just run the installer all the way through or do you do something similar to this process?

Hello everyone.

As you know, in the new versions of Google Maps 5.1 and 5.2 the information is stored in the cache (the first online) and offline you can review later.

My trick: first at home with wifi, sailed through the area where I will go, and then normally use my gps with maps OFFLINE Since you keep everything above in the cache) (not 3g). until there perfect ..

As I can keep all the information stored in the cache (cache security copy .. just google maps), so that every time I install a new rom does not have to start over?:mad:

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WA4YMZ:
I received my new gTablet Tuesday and had lots of fun with it for a few days, adding apps, getting frustrated because some places sent them to my phone and not letting me download to the gTab, loading media files, etc. Life was good. Then I added an external 32GB mSD and, just as many other people found out, files started disappearing. For me, though, they didn't just disappear from the media players but from the file system. Not only that but the folders began to disappear, too, and now I'm missing several folders from my file system: Video, Pictures, Music, Downloads, and many more that don't come to mind, plus all of their contents.

I was hoping that a reflash (using Roebeet's excellent sticky thread) would help but everything is still missing. Is there a way to recover or reflash the contents of the /sdcard? Even reloading the stock image would be acceptable as I would at least have a base to work from.

And, since my readings hint that this is all a result of the .nomedia issue, just where should that particular file be stored so that the media scanner doesn't delete thing or is my problem greater than that? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wd5gnr:
I am not sure, but I wonder if anundelete utility on your pc might recover files on the sd card?

As for the no media file, I have mine on the root directory as well as the media directories. This is bad though, because Very few programs will find files on the sd card. You have to use a file manager program.
