[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jebise101:
i would be happy for an app that runs a system of the sd card, kinda like how they used to run android on the HD2. Click the app and it would boot android restart and it boots back to winmo coz thats whats on the NAND :P.

This would good for people that want to test a ROM, mod it, theme it without flashing the orgional ROM. A Virtual machine if you will
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliasgharettehadi:
hey guy i have think about what you said if dev can develope multi loader like computer that can we have both winphone 7 with android or maemo with bada or meego with ios! that sounds good and i think we can do that cause we have three diffrent storage in galaxy s. that have 2 gig rom that we have used it for android by now and we make it lagfix and change it from rfs to ext. another storage is internal nand that is 8 or 16 gig that we can use for further os like ios. and at last for blue tooth or else we can use external sd storage up to 32 gig i think galaxy s is more up than n900 or hd2 so we can nand and port real os on it!

BootManager - ROM multiboot

Hello, someone knows if this app works on galaxy s i9000?, I have a version of this device sold exclusively here in Brazil it is called I9000B, the only difference for the I9000, is that my tv is digital!

I wud love to hav dual boot - Android n WP7 (like HTC HD2), but having 2 android OS doesnt make any sense!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] casseres2001:
Actually does so, this way we can enjoy two different roms at the same time, can have the best of two worlds!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xela92:
No updates? I thought we could just have an entry in the recovery mod which backs up the old kernel, flashes a new kernel, maybe modded to mount the /system and /data filesystems from sdcard images (system.img & data.img), replaces init.rc to avoid problematic mounts, and then boots the other rom. then, to reboot in the original rom, enter recovery and select the default one. I just want to know what are the problems we could find with this method. I can help, if someone is interested in doing this. I'm not a dev, but I can prepare images, edit init.rc, and if you give me the source I may be able to edit the recovery. I really want dual boot on my i9000, to test roms without wipes and backups, to have choice, to have a recovery rom in case something goes wrong with the default one and I'm not at home. For instance, it happened to me, that sometimes I couldn't listen to music when I was on the bus, due to roms' problems. I wish I could boot an emergency rom in cases like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vlad87do:
no it will not work, becoause of bootpartiton :(

but i really cant understand , why skilled kerneldeveloper cant develope any dualboot kernel: Main rom at Phone-Rom and second rom just at sd-card

Hi!

As I do not have enough posts to add this to the roms thread, I have to post my problems here...

I am not very happy with this Rom.

Under Wifi conditions, the roms is excellent!! Very heavy usage, lots of wifi internet etc. but very less power consuming.

Today, the first time under normal business life, I have extreme battery drain.

I had to switch to 2g as 3G/HSDPA as it uses soooooo much power, I can watch the power dropping. Also the mobile gets very warm.

But also with 2g it is very battery hungry :(

The apps/widgets/settings are same under conditions.

O2 carrier Germany, CSC not changed roms default

Anyone with same result?

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URBANsUNITED:
OK, got it!

It was Trillian which sucked my battery empty :(

What is the best alternative for Trillian?

Time stamp on sms received msg is wrong how do we fix this
[HTC Incredible S] timbo007up:
Is it of a year ago or what? Be clear please. The sms timestamps are correct here, but if you reply within seconds (same minute) the reply appears above the last received message, that's an app fault, nothing we can do about
[HTC Incredible S] gemini002:
no not for xda app ..sms timestamps are wrong for me they are right but for the person who texts me its is like 4 hours wrong
[HTC Incredible S] rajeshr:
I'll assume you are on Rogers or Fido as their network has this issue with unbranded phones. You'll need to download SMS Time Fix from the Android Market and have that run in the background.
[HTC Incredible S] gemini002:
thanks :D will try
[HTC Incredible S] gwmkwan:
Use Go SMS Pro

it has the option to correct this

plus it is the best SMS app
[HTC Incredible S] rajeshr:
Good point. I had forgotten about Go SMS Pro!
[HTC Incredible S] junooni.1980:
what about handcent??
[HTC Incredible S] sia999us:
i had this problem too but its solved by using SMS time Fix by downloading from market ;)
[HTC Incredible S] rajeshr:
The last time I checked, Handcent did not offer the option to adjust time stamp. The choice is to use SMS Time Fix with the stock Messaging app or to use Go SMS Pro.

Hi all

Anyone have the "choco cooky" font, .ttf preferable, and is willing to share?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] gomezzz:
there you go... OK, it's not .ttf but it worked for me though...
[General Questions and Answers] karthiksitian:
apk has been installed how to apply it using stock launcher...:|
[General Questions and Answers] CKal:
You can extract the apk file and go into the res folder to find your font, very likely in ttf. Then you can use a Font Changer app to install the font onto your device.

Root is needed, by the way.

Or otherwise, you can navigate to root/system/font and replace the font in there - but remember to modify the permissions of your newly installed font ttf.

Hi guys! This is my first thread (and post).

Is that possible to port SE Camera to froyo 2.2 or port SE Arc Camera to froyo?

I´m missing smile shutter and other good thing from this app. :(
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Bruce Lee:
Nope u cant the drivers of 2.1 camera wont match the 2.2 drivers. If i recall.

Sent from XDA Premium from my X10a rooted running 2.2.1 CM Rom from Rendeiro2005
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Perceval from Hyrule:
Hi and welcome :)

As Voelker said, drivers can't be ported from 2.1, and I understand Google stock camera isn't that beautiful ;)

Face Recognition service (BTW it drains lots of battery!) works as a separate file (apk) you can get from stock SE 2.1 rom or from Arc rom.

You can try to port it, then implement functionnality to stock google app ;)

don't forget SE said x10 will (!) get Gingerbread, WITHOUT Face service (it is said to be the stock Google camera). Your only hope is currently to keep official 2.1 rom if you do miss some stuff...
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] ImS0Raw:
SE said they weren't sure about us getting the standard android camera ;) You've to read better their blog post.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] pngface:
Quoting the blog:

" The current plan is that the XperiaTM X10 will get the Android standard Camera user interface and therefore features like e.g. face recognition, smile shutter etc will be lost. "

Anyone with Evo switching. Am interested in why...other than first update access.
[EVO 4G General] snandlal:
Bout time they give us a date
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
Lets get that release date for the 3D.... come on sprint.
[EVO 4G General] Jjday7:
Doubt they will do that soon because it will upstage the Nexus S. I think the release date will come about a month after drop.
[EVO 4G General] Brutus2TheMax:
I have an EVO and I'm switching. Don't get me wrong. I love my EVO to death and have had a blast with it. What I'm switching to the NS for is the Screen, battery life, and updates. I like the EVO screen but the SuperAMOLED screen is clearer and smaller to a size that I like better. 4.3" is too big for me to carry in my pocket. Battery life also. I have an extended battery and don't like the added bulk plus you add a case on top of that? It's just not comfortable for me. Updates is self explanatory.

I love the EVO but I gotta move onto something that fits me better. I'm passing the EVO to my mother who has my old Hero now. She needs something else to cause everyone knows the Hero is well behind standards now. I'll be following up here still. Once that Snap v9 kernel comes out, you can bet I'll be first one to get it!
[EVO 4G General] Jjday7:
I personally would love to have one but I want to see how the community welcomes it. I know it's stock android and some people love that but I just want to be sure there will be some steady developers on it. I really hope sense can be ported to it. It's obvious the phone is better than the evo spec wise but I will really miss Sense if I leave the Evo.

Size, speed and updates make it worth it all alone.
[EVO 4G General] spencer88:
My g/f pre-ordered the Nexus S 4G and she was the first one in my area to pre-order it (at least in that particular store.) I'm excited for her to get it and see how it stacks up against my Evo. I know being pure Android it's going to get the updates before anybody else. I also want to see how the screen is.

The only thing I like about sense is the browser and dialer, other than that I don't use any of the other functions it offers. Im still on the fence about the nexus, but im sure ill end up using it until the E3d drops.
[EVO 4G General] brokentoaster24:
I'll probably be switching. The look up comparison videos and you'll see how much better the screen is.. Plus faster updates and newer hardware. The specs are the same number wise but the ns is a superior piece of hardware

I just called the sprint store to see if I can preorder one,( Just signed up with Sprint a few weeks ago). And they told me I can't so i'm going to have to go there early, before I start work.Hopefully there won't be a huge line.
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
I thought sprint was doing preorders as well.
[EVO 4G General] JDM Civic EG8:
Not the one in my area sadly. The lady I spoke with said usually they have the phones in stock days before the sale, but they don't even have any yet. And she doesn't know if there will be a lot of them.

I can't wait, I preordered mine on bestbuy.com normal shipping so hopefully it doesn't take to long to get here.

[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
Its alright. Yeah the upgrade is for me and its my sprint account but i did pay for it with her paypal so its understandable. As long as it comes early next week ill be happy.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
Yeah best buy said they wont have many in stock either aside for those who preordered.
[EVO 4G General] JDM Civic EG8:
Maybe I should try a different Sprint store? And also would I be able to return my Evo at any Sprint store or does it have to be returned at the one I purchased?
[EVO 4G General] decalex:
Damn.. I'm so torn. I could get the nexus s 4g for a $35 restocking fee.. only until may 11th... what to do..
[EVO 4G General] rushco:
If you bought it at a corporate store you can return it to any Sprint corporate store.
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
I exchanged an Evo a couple of weeks ago and i just threatened about going to another carrier and they didn't even say anything about a restocking fee. Then my wife got a purple Optimus about 2 weeks ago and returned it so she can get her upgrade back and get me the Nexus S. Although this time I was prepared to pay the restocking fee, they made no mention of it and never charged us.

i think it all depends on where you go and who get to work with you.
[EVO 4G General] JDM Civic EG8:
Damn because I was seriously thinking about returning my Evo to pick up an Nexus. But I got my Evo in store for $163.xx and Would have to pay the difference. Plus pay the restocking fee. But then again I might not have to because I already exchanged my first Evo white hw 003 and didn't have to pay a restocking fee
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Be careful with that one because Sprint only allows you to exchange one time within your 30 days...unlike BB which let me exchange 3 devices when i was ATT for a short time. I originally had an Atrix, exchanged it for an Inspire, exchanged it for an IP4 (Returned that the very next day) went back to the Atrix.

Nevertheless, I think that's when I threatened to switch carriers. I just told them the phone was randomly rebooting and that I was thinking about going back to ATT because of this. So they was like do you want to try another phone...and just like that they exchanged it.
[EVO 4G General] decalex:
I'm less torn about the restocking fee, and more about if it's worth it to jump to the nexus. I love the super amoled (had the epic for 7 months)and update potential. But don't love the lack of sd, -0.3" of display.. eh.. I guess these are quality problems to have :)
[EVO 4G General] JDM Civic EG8:
I wonder would they let me exchange it one last time..I plan on sticking with the Nexus for quite some time and going to buy another Evo online to play with when the Gingerbread update comes out.

And its weird I ported my number over from T-Mo..signed up for the $125 Service credit. I just asked Customer Service what exactly does it work for. And he must have not understood the question because he gave me the Service credit early.
[EVO 4G General] stillblood:
Make sure its a corporate store not a dealer.
[EVO 4G General] Mr.Max:
that phone isnt horrible.. but i think the evo 3d has my heart

since when is the nexus line just an ok phone?... oh that's right it's because some of you are brainwashed into thinking all samsung phones are ****. :rolleyes:

id get the evo3d too if it weren't for those horrid stand out buttons on the side.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
I love the buttons on the side haha. Each to their own. Nexus is still a good phone even if it's approaching a year old. I wouldn't buy a phone that's been out for so long tho.

id get the evo3d too if it weren't for those horrid stand out buttons on the side.[/QUOTE]

You read my mind man, I have to admit that my Evo 4g with it's case it's kinda hard to fit into skinny jeans, not impossible but very uncomfortable. I'm still on the fence if i should jump to the Nexus S, i would love it for the quick Google updates and the vanilla android but it's already outdated in terms of hardware and i been with android since day 1 with the G1 i might want to try a new OS.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
This nexus is NOT a year old and either is the gsm version.
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
He said " approaching" a year old, and I agree its 2009/2010 tech under the hood, not the latest.
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
It came out in the beginning of this year its approaching half year old
[EVO 4G General] rushco:
The Nexus S isn't even 5 months old and the hardware is great.
[EVO 4G General] jyan_osu:
The CPU on the Nexus S is the 45 nm 1 GHz ARM Cortex A8 based CPU core with a PowerVR SGX 540 GPU which is the same as the Captivate launched back in July of last year.. not to say it's not a good CPU/GPU as my wife has the Epic 4G and it's alright.

All of my friends who have owned various lines of Samsung phones though have sworn against them. Everyone has had problems from the Intercept to the Moment to the Epic 4G. I've had two take back their Epic 4Gs and my wife's not happy with hers cause it misses key presses, GPS is lacking, and the thing seems to lag for some unknown reason. She's done both the Eclair and Froyo updates all on clean installs and she doesn't install any apps cause she just uses it as a basic phone with texting, but there's been times it gets stuck and we have to wait.

That's just my experience with Samsung phones and I'm not here to say that's how all are as dealing in electronics, experiences can range differently even with same hardware.

In any case, those that are going to get it, enjoy it. I don't care if people like the choices I make in electronics as that's why they make a vast range of hardware out there anyways.
[EVO 4G General] decalex:
Ditto.. Former Epic 4G owner.. (actually still own it.. it's just bricked), and recovering Samsung Moment owner. But mostly, the major Epic 4G problems were lack of communication from Samsung regarding updates. Other than that, I know the devs had probs with the samsung drivers and porting.
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
I agree. We talk about dated hardware but bottom line, the nexus s is a sick phone with a powerful processor. For the sake of what's new, people are right its not the latest and greatest but for your real world use does it even matter? The nexus is a fast phone and wont be slow, regardless of what else is available.

If the evo 3d has an encrypted bootloader, I'll probably swap it for a nexus.

Tapa tapa tapa
[EVO 4G General] rockypoo:
I was going to get the Nexus S but I think I am going to wait till after Google I/O and see if anything super cool gets announced.
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:

[EVO 4G General] XxsydenxX:
Wow I actually just had the greatest experience with sprint ever... I came in and showed her that my phone suffers from the loose micro usb port manufacturing error for the evo, so the only way my phone charges is by wrapping the cord around it a few times tightly so the micro sd port makes contact with the motherboard. Well i asked her about preordering the nexus S and if my contract was available for renewal ... well my contract wasnt up..but she is the manager of said store and said she would infact push my renewal date to the 8th... so i wouldn't have to pay an absurd amount of money for the nexus S... beyond that she noticed my phone was rooted running cm7 and said she wouldnt "SEE" that while i traded it in to get 140 dollars off of my nexus s purchase...nor would she see the damaged port... That sir..is customer service..cant wait to switch to the nexus s....the only thing that scares me though is the change of screen size..i hope it's not too noticeable.

Yeah probably outdated it cause of the duel core processors? Well I don't think is much outdated comapre to other phones I mean sure duel cores are coming out but if the software doesn't go with the hardware, it won't make sense, like the Evo sure it had a FFC since last yearband Google barely release an update for video gtalk , almost a year back, the means Google wasn't ready and and manufactures are just looking in a way to trap you for the new features even tho the current OS doesn't support it yet, when I got my Evo and I had the 30fps screen problem I almost went back to return it, my iPhone 3GS would outperform it with some old hardware, and still does in some games, the hardware needs to be in harmony with the software other wise is just crap, I learn my lesson with the Evo and even if still my favorite phone I'm planning no to get the Evo 3D and most likely the nexus s 4g if the price is right off contract
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Yeah but best buy always have a higher price then anyone else the had the Evo for 600$ off contract and it was 450$

I'm guessing that most people that pre-ordered online will get the phone next Monday at the latest...that is if you selected express Shipping.
