[Captivate General] snipes007:
Hello all,

I just had to swap out my Captivate and am in process of setting things back up to my liking. I did something on my old phone and cannot figure out how I did it.

I had taken a plain black image and applied it to all my contacts to remove the default "alien" contact picture. Anyone know I can change the contact picture for a group or batch of contacts (instead of one by one).

Thanks!
[Captivate General] majinzen:
You can change the "contacts_default_image_small.png" located in the drawable-hdpi-finger folder of the Contacts app to change the "alien" contact picture. That's what I did.

Just curious, anybody know what the contrast ratio is on theses phones?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoogleAndroid:
Nearly infinite since OLEDs can achieve very bright whites and black levels of near zero, so low that instruments can't even measure it.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpaulwaite:
is there a difference between amoled and oled?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
Yes and no, amoled is a specific type of oled display. An amoled display is always an oled display, but an oled may or may not be an amoled.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoogleAndroid:
Not really. AMOLED just mean Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode. An OLED is an Organic Light Emitting Diode, and can either have an active or passive matrix. The AM in front of OLED is uselessly tacked on. LCDs are usually active matrix and no one calls them AMLCDs. It's just marketing BS.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalai:
look man theres so many good roms, out you just gotta try all the ones that interests you...it all comes down to personal preferences...

reason why i went with the mik rom is the support community.

if you got a question on a mod or tweak thats not in it ive seen someone create a zips for fix's on many occasions
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
Are you doing a full wipe between each flash? CM7 when running right should not be slow. I have been on one version or another of it for the past month or so and it's always faster than the sense ROMs.

MikFroyo, Myn and VaelPak are all very good ROMs as well, speeds should be pretty similar.

In the end, you have to just try them until you find what you like.

Warranty replacement is usually a refurb.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
Yes this......
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepyncrawly:
The refurb you receive will have refurb internals, but a new outer case. They will do the same with the phone you return to them, so the scratches on the cover will not matter. The random shutdown is supposedly caused by faulty memory, so when they rebuild the phone, they will have to put new memory into it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Condition of phone would of the condition u trade in. They classify these kinds of trade-in phones on three levels if I remember right - "like new" being the best case where u generally get replacement phones that are hardly used.

And they will give only the instrument, not the battery cover or the battery.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miggyg:
I installed the android market with the stock rom two weeks ago. I first used Zroot. I then copied the android market files onto my Gtablet but i did not place them in the system folders. I kept them in the download folder. I then installed the apps in the proper order and did the market fix. Everything runs perfectly ever after the latest update. So here is my question I can see my device in the android market, but it is unnamed and I can't see maker or model on the list. Is this normal? Should i be able to see a better description of the gtablet on the list. I believe i have a full market, but in can't seem to be able to find adobe flash or firefox mobile browser in the market. I've had to do a manual install for both to get the latest.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] '76 F350:
I've turned it off and on about 150 times in the past 2 days. I can't do anything with it because it won't pull up my apps that are on the SD card, it just has the market symbol and when you click the app "application not installed" I've tried mounting it to the computer to see if that would fix it, at which point it freezes. I take the SD card out, put it back in, no fix. I pull the battery out, nope. I am running the stock ROM.

Okay, there are two types of A2SD out there. There's the original one that uses an EXT partition on your SD card (attainable through CWM recovery, A2EXT/the real A2SD) and there's the buggy imitation that Google introduced with Froyo which uses an ".android-secure" folder on your SD card (A2FAT). I recommend partitioning your SD card and then using either DarkTremor's A2SD script or go with PyroMod ROMs.

How about a little process of elimination.

1. Use a file explorer and look in the .android-secure folder on the sdcard (or do this with a computer, your choice), are the apps in there?

2. Do the apps show up in your app drawer?

3. What did you do in the past few days that caused this, upgrade your ROM or switch to a different ROM?

I booted the phone up, fired right up and is working fine.

As long as it doesn't turn off again I will be fine.

When I go through the app drawer, the applications that are on the phone show up. But the applications that are on the SD card don't. Almost as if they aren't there or there wasn't a SD card in my phone. As for not having enough patience for Android, I've been into Android since the day the first Android device came out, which was the G1, I've had many other android devices since then. I would never own an iPhone, my girlfriend has the 3Gs one, and it's a piece of ****. How many years did it take for them to figure out they should put a flash on it? How many versions of the iPhone does it take before you can have a wallpaper? Don't get me started. "Start me up, I'll never stop"

Thanks for the help guys, I just need to be more patient, I guess.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
I've had the little generic icon that shows up when an app just isn't there anymore. From the sounds of it one of two things has occured.

The permissions for the .android-secure folder are screwed up and need to be changed, or possible even the /data/app folder permissions got screwed up.

The other is that the apps just are not there anymore. You still haven't said whether or not you've taken a peek in the .android-secure folder to see if the apps are there.

Hello all,

I hope you'll know why I can't launch X-Plane 9 v9.66 on my Xperia X8. I'm using racht's 2.3.3 CM7 RELEASE HACKDROID ROM. I'm really satisfied with it, it's stable and there's many good things, but I'm encountering some problems with some apps and games. It says, that process has just stopped. The apps from market works great, but I have a pack of apps and games that is apk files, on my pc. Some apps and games from it doesn't work, like PewPew. I've downloaded PewPew from market and it worked great. But I don't want to spend money for X-Plane 9. I just don't know where's the problem, why the process stops.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
Hello,

After a failed attempt to install VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition on my Malata Zpad, I followed an advice on a thread to reflash the tablet with nvflash.

I made a big mistake at that time and flashed a Gtablet configuration.

This stuck me in APX mode, without anything on screen (for the first flash operation, I get one line telling I was in this mode, but after that I never saw this line again).

I can put the tablet is in APX mode (lsusb gives: Bus 001 Device 110: ID 0955:7820 NVidia Corp.). I can read slowly some elements using nvflash and --rawdeviceread (552 sectors at a time only) from my Linux computer. If I try to read too many byte, I get "data receive failure NvError 0x120000". I also have to switch the tablet on and off one or two times between each read attempt. Patiently reading sectors and assembling them on the computer with commands like cat, dd, od -x and the like, I get the impression that most of the gtablet configuration has been written (including PT but not BCT, or it was overwritten later), but there were some errors (binary files differ after some hundreds of thousands bytes).

However, most of the commands I send with nvflash fail as never completing or sending only the bootloader and not the other files, or sending the bct and stopping ... I also tried to use --rawdevicewrite but was able to overwrite neither BCT nor PT partitions. In fact, after the rawdevicewrite attempt, now rawdeviceread returns lots of alternating series of ffffffff and 000000. It also seem that if I read at the sectors corresponding to partitions BCT and PT, I get the same patterns, but if I do a --getBCP I get "normal" bytes (first line of od -x shows: 0000000 b380 6840 476e 15b9 23f1 5b07 18d2 8a58 ...). I think the fffff and 0000 are really there and correspond to write errors, but cannot be sure.

I also tried using directly --download to put the BCT partition but got another error: "failed executing command 14 NvError 0x120002 / command failure: partition download failed (bad command)". If I try the same command on partition 4 (EBT, with the bootloader) the bytes are sent but the error becomes "failed executing command 25 NvError 0x120000 / command failure: sync failed".

I don't understand what happens and how I can flash a working configuration again.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
I have made some very small progress.

I now can see the following line on the tablet when nvflash has sent the appropriate bootloader (the one I used before was corrupted):

Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p server

This bootloader however does not support the --getbct command, it replies:

Failed sending command 2 NvError 1179650command failure: getbct failed (bad data)
bootloader status: operation not implemented (code: 3) message: nverror:0x1 (0x1) flags: 0

So I have to switch to another bootloader (fastboot.bin, retrieved from an ac100 forum) to get the BCT.

I can use --download without errors, so I tried to download recovery.img from cwm 0.8 into partition 9 as a recovery boot, hoping to repartition my tablet from CWM. No error on download, but nothing happens if I try to reboot in recovery mode (I guess this boot image is used when powering up the tablet while Vol+ is pressed. Rereading the first 94MB of the flash memory, I searched for the header bytes of recovery.img but did not found them (the longest match I found were only 8 bytes long), so I think --download did not download anything.

So I am still stuck with an unusable tablet.

Could someone give me some advice ?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
Another strange thing I get is when I try to reset the BCT after having sent the bootloder to the tablet in a previous command. I use:

sudo ../nvflash --bct Malata_a02_12Mhz_H5PS1G83EFR-S6C_333Mhz_1GB_2K8Nand_HY27UF084G2B-TP.bct --setbct --configfile android_fastboot_full.cfg --odmdata 0xbb0c0011 --create --go

Then I get messages about creating BCT, PT and EBT partitions, followed by a message about BCT being full and unable to add a new boot loader. I'm not sure anything has really been written on the tablet.

Does anyone know how to empty the BCT before attempting to relaunch the previous flash operation ?
