[Galaxy 3 General] asethi100:
Hello,

I recently upgraded my handset which is the galaxy 3 to the official froyo ROM via KIES. The software installed flawlessly and seems to be working absolutely great apart from one small glitch.

The Swype text input doesnt seem to be working. It plays a sound and refuses to type in any words. Tried rebooting and factory resetting the phone but to no use.

Anyone facing the same problem? Found a solution?
[Galaxy 3 General] Kaleptik:
Everyone is facing this problem. Root, delete, install from swype site.
[Galaxy 3 General] jaskiratsingh:
THis is what i did:

1. Download Super One Click 1.8 and root your phone ( it will also install busybox)

2. Install titanium

3. Wipe data in swype, uninstall swype

4. Restart Phone

5. Reinstall Swype

Swype working :D
[Galaxy 3 General] debayan.laha:
Those having problem with SWYPE in offcl update do this>>

U need to root your phone. After rooting, u can use Android Terminal Emulator to delete swype.apk from /system/app. Following are the commands:

su

rm - r /system/app/Swype.*

reboot

Then, register for Swype beta at swypeinc(dot)com

They will send u the link to download the apk. You need to use wifi as the file size is around 10Mb. This trick will wrk.
[Galaxy 3 General] disonejust4u:
I did exactly as u said.

but it says rm failed for -, Read-only file system.

Plz help....
[Galaxy 3 General] shubhashish:
was su command successful?

is your phone rooted?

are you on # prompt?

When u execute su on command prompt it will ask fro permission on your phone screen. say yes there
[Galaxy 3 General] disonejust4u:
my phone is rooted

& i hv given d permission

n m also on # prompt

but still it doesn't work...
[Galaxy 3 General] satyamsit:
Swype installed.

1. rooted my phone with super one click.

2. installed titanium backup.

3. wiped data and uninstalled swype from titanium.

4. restarted.

5. opened swypeinc(dot)com and registered.

6. activation mail in account.

7. clicking on activation link will again send one mail with "swype installer" link in it.

8. install it.

9. open.

10. log in and it will give 2 option to download. swype beta full (10mb) or swype engliah/spanish (2.5mb)

11. chose English/spanish.

12. downloaded and installed.

13. from locale and swype enable swype.

zooooooooooooooooooooooom... done :D
[Galaxy 3 General] disonejust4u:
Finally done it with titnaium..

Thnx!!!!!!
[Galaxy 3 General] ashok:
Thanks it worked, for people who are not able to activate super user after using Superoneclick has to restart the mobile.
[Galaxy 3 General] techie.raj:
Like disonejust4u , I also had the same problem. Even after getting root previlages in Shell (i.e. after typing su and having # prompt in the next line of the terminal) I was getting read only filesystem error.

But after seeing satyamsit post I wondered how to wipe the data and uninstalling swype with Titanium Backup. This is for those who are also wondering like me.

Wiping the data and Uninstalling of Swype

After launching Titanium go to Backup/Restore tab

under this section find out the entry "Swype" and select it

Here you will get the options to wipe and uninstalling the app etc.

After uninstalling follow the instructions given by satyamsit

Thanks to satyamsit

Hope this helps

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrhorology:
Hello all,

In your opinions, what is the most stable and bug free rom out for the gtab right now? I have Gadam right now as my daily, but looking for another to switch

between, but I don't want to make the wrong choice.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNinja:
I really liked TnT Lite, but it doesn't see PEAP authenticated wireless networks. Running Vegan 5.11 now, it runs well too but I've had intermittent issues with the apps market.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 07aspenx:
To be honest they all have their bugs, you just have to find the right rom that fits your needs. I started with tnt lite when I first got my gtab from woot. I was getting alot of apps fc'ing so I tried vegan tab 5.1.1 then got bored so I tried caulkins which had some issues. Also tried vegan gingerbread which i really like but couldn't play videos so now I'm back to vegan 5.1.1 which is the most stable and works best for my needs.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
+1 on VEGAn 5.1.1.

If the rom just working and not having a bunch of force closes is boring then this is not the rom for you. However, if you just want your gTab to be fast and reliable then this is the rom for you.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikkle:
I'm loving Vegan 7 RC1. It's Gingerbread based so you don't get blazing fast hardware video decoding, but thus far that isn't a feature I use. For browsing the web, streaming the news (video or audio) Wifi location support, etc etc it is AWESOME.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kekinash:
Another one for vegan. I like more the UI of tapntap, looks more like a tablet, but doesn't work as smooth as vegan. Just waiting for Vegan 7 to have the video drivers.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiplash13:
+1 for VEGAn 5.1.1
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrhorology:
Keep the opinions coming.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riccarr:
I've been on Vegan Tab and is nice though I do get FC's on more than a rare occasion.

It does not auto rotate the home screen; since we all know the gtab does have the best viewing angles, I frequently flip it around, but every time I go back to home screen its upside down.

Does TnT Lite auto rotate home screen? Which other ROMs do?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kekinash:
I'm using launcher pro with auto rotate enable and it works fine. Rotates to all side, up, down, left, right. Maybe you have to check your launcher?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qynt:
+1 VEGAn 5.1.1 it is fast stable and runs circles around the stock ROM.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumdumdude:
I couldn't comprehend using anything other than the Calkulin+Clemsyn OC Combo. It provides what I believe to be the best ROM (Calkulin) with the best kernel (Clemsyn 1.5Ghz OC) in a single package. If you think VEGAn 5.1.1 is fast, try this combo, it will blow you away.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kekinash:
Fast but no stable and somethings doesn't work like gps tethering, Bluetooth file transfer, etc... so faster doesn't mean always better. ;)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P00r:
+1 for Gingerbread based rom, seem like custom build rom are better than Froyo almost emulator rip... Eventually they will be the one to use!

Gojimmy has done a very good work with his custom launcher!

Calkulin / Clemsyn is also a very good choice
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crutzulee:
I can't believe that more love hasn't been shown for Calkulin and Clemsyn. I am running Calkulin's 1.1 with an unreleased version 10 of Clemsyn and it is smoking fast, stable (no sleep issues), and plays videos flawlessly (rock player light).

For my purposes, it does everything better than Vegan 5.1.1 which I loved before.

I am tempted by the new combo rom that Clemsyn is now supporting but I am generally a "if it ain't broke don't fix it" kinda guy.

I would be tempted to try a gingerbread rom if NVidia supports it with drivers.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
Gojimi's free launcher looks fantastic and does auto-rotate the home screen.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
Am I missing something?

I've read several people on this thread and others that say such and such rom is faster than such and such other rom. Seriously, what do you guys do on your gTabs that you keep having to jump on the next "fastest" benchmark screenshot? I really don't get it so can someone give me some real life examples so I can understand? Is it purely for bragging rights or what?

I'm running VEGAn 5.1.1 now but before that I tried a few TnT variants and nothing I used my gTab for seemed to be noticibly affected by one or another flavor of rom except for stability.

I use the hell out my gTabs by the way. I watch videos I've ripped, play games like Samurai 2: Vengeance, use remote desktop software to access work computers to do work, create and modify Office documents, and use Flash to watch videos on sites like Fox Television and HULU.

So I just want to know why I should be jumping to a new rom or kernel release every day. And yes I know about pershoot's overclock kernel too which would let you show your buddies a screenshot with crazy fast numbers on a benchmark.

If you're not a newbie and flashing something new everyday makes you feel complete then by all means, do it, we need folks like you to flush out bugs for the cookers to fix. But I feel like we've got a lot of new members that joined us recently that aren't all that experienced at modding and steering them in directions of roms or kernel hacks that are either unnecessary or not very stable for most users' everyday needs is irresponsible.

That's my humble opinion and I'll get of my soapbox now.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrhorology:
Really torn between Calkulin and Clemsyn, and vegan now. I care more about stable and less bugs/problems then speed.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dueces99:
Since going to Vegan Ginger period, I have had zero issues. Granted, mine is for recreational use at the moment so nvflashing often isnt an issue. Not to take anything away from Calkulin, both ROMs seemed just as stable/fast for my daily use. The deciding factor then was look, feel, and (for me) settings. lol Vegan and gojimi's VTL Launcher lets me customize practically anything.

+1 Vegan RC, but to each their own. You wont find whats best for your setup in this thread, not until you try each ROM and see for yourself.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiplash13:
If you plan on using it to play videos then go with something Froyo as none of the Gingerbread ROM's have hardware acceleration so video will be choppy.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrhorology:
I think I will stay with Froyo for now, just unsure which :(
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikkle:
Easy answer... if you want to customize it and make it your own, get the Clemsyn+Calkulin combo. If you want it out of the box, go with Vegan. I was using the Clemsyn+Calkulin combo before Vegan 7 and it was fast and satisfying. Since I'm a newbie, I decided I wanted something that came out of the box with a little more stuff. I really like the VTL/launcher that comes with Vegan 7, but it should be installable on other roms.

I recently ordered a dock, so I'll be moving back to a Froyo base soon in order to support the hardware decoding over HDMI to 1080p. I am confident enough at this point to use the Clemsyn+Calkulin combo for that and add all my personal tweaks and packages.

What I would really love to do is find a guide on how to customize the rom itself so I can hide the icons for the packages I never use but come stock with the ROMs.

All in all, there are so many excellent choices and flashing is so effortless, try them both. :-) But, if your nervous, start with Vegan.

Also, and this is slightly off topic, but in Vegan 7 I have noticed a video playback bug in the Fox News app where the video only fills the top 33% of the landscape screen. It plays fine, but it even makes Obama look built, which, on some levels, I find disturbing. ;-)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNinja:
I was running Calkulin+Clemsyn for a while, it was quick and nice and light. But it's based on the TnT ROM, so I couldn't access the network at work. :(
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
This is true. However if you feel you HAVE to go to a gingerbread rom then you'll need to use an app like RockPlayer that will handle the video without hardware acceleration instead of the stock video player.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsg2513:
Vegan 7 RC1 was awesome but just takes too long to boot and since no matter what I do, I cannot get my tablet to wake up from sleep mode, I have gone back to Vegan 5.1 which boots in about 60-75 seconds vs 2-3 minutes for 7.0.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drum747:
Running Vegan Ginger overclocked with Pershoots overclock. It has been very stable. I use my Vulkano with no problem. Calkulins is great in terms of performance but leaves a lot to be desired in the way of features (pulldown, settings menu,etc) and none of the 2.2's will run my Vulkano. My wife's g tab is running Calkulins with Clemsens kernel 9 and it is great. She loves it. Of course I made her run stock first so she can appreciate it!!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NinetyWt:
I'm curious about this as well. Not snarking here, just wondering... would the average user really care about the faster speed?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crutzulee:
I was very happy using vegan 5.1.1. I had to try Calkulin because for me, the gtab is my toy. I bought it to satisfy my need to tinker and be entertained. For the normal user, the speed difference is not a big deal and I wouldn't have thought that it would make a difference to me.

However, having tried both, I can say that I prefer the speedier rom.

Both are stable and do everything I need my tab to do. Both have the "feature" of putting the wifi to sleep shortly after the screen goes dark. Calkulin's recovers from this noticeably faster and that's a little thing that makes a big difference to a Guy like me. For a more patient person...not so much.

The transition from launcher to app drawer looks more smooth and apps POP open almost before you tap the screen. I like this. For a person not mollified buy shiny objects again....not so much.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rover442:
My Vulkano consistently freezes and I have to do a hard reboot. It's just not going to work for me regardless of ROM. I got into a huge fight with Monsoon tech support who are completely clueless and useless. I've dicked around far too long and today I have given up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errandum:
Hi.

I'm currently developing an application on my Desire, and it uses the "File X = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();" to get the SD card directory (that I need to use to save some BIG log files).

But in the end this application should be able to run in a multitude of devices, like the Samsung Galaxy S.

My question is this: Does that command return the Mass storage (the phone's internal one) or the SD card path?

If it does access the SD card, how do I get the path for the Mass storage?

Thanks in advance!
