[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomMelee:
I've got a Captivate running base Andromeda 3. I believe I had this issue prior to that, but I cannot be sure. Here's the behavior:

I use the Google Desk Clock overnight while I charge my phone. In the Morning, when I unplug it, everything works fine, regardless of whether I let the screen time out or press the power button to turn it off. Somewhere in the next hour, it may be 3 minutes it may be closer to an hour, the screen decides it WILL NOT turn back on.

The phone is still on, the softkeys still light up, the phone still rings and receives messages. I can even answer the call and talk, just based on knowing where the answer slider is.

Interestingly, if I wait for the call to STOP, the screen will come back ON, but then won't really work. It wants to hang and/or freeze on whatever given home screen you come back to.

Holding volume up plus power to force reboot fixes the issue until the next morning.

I had other issues a long time ago on another rom with LauncherPro, and had switched to ADW. When I mentioned this issue in the Andromeda thread, it was suggested I switch to Zeam. The problem persists and interestingly, about 50% of the time when the phone turns back on, Zeam has decided I only need 3 instead of 5 home screens. Editing the setting brings back the home screens and their setup, weird.

I thought maybe it was Clockr, not clockr.

Using BattStat, SiMi Clock, GVoice, and Keyring widgets. I can't imagine any of my installed apps would make a difference, I'll list them if necessary.

I believe Andromeda (Froyo?) does some weird things with shutting down apps, I'm wondering if it possibly has something to do with that. The problem never happens again during the day, so clearly it either has to do with charging or with the GDesk Clock, or both. Happy to hear any thoughts. Please?

One more thing: While the screen is off but the phone is on, it DESTROYS my battery. Seriously, it'll eat 15% in 20 minutes.

I've read something about that couple days ago. If you do a little search, I'm sure you'll find it (can't remember what the thread was called) :o

Also, black screen usually happens with UV. which brings me to ask.. Do you OC/UV? :rolleyes:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
Andromeda doesnt do anything differently than any other rom including stock when shutting down apps. there was nothing changed that would change that behavior from any version of 2.2
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomMelee:
Unless andromeda does onboard OC/UV, then no, I don't.

Seriously nothing that I can find has changed. I've scoured the boards looking for similar threads, but I suppose I'll start over.

My 4g radio recently crapped out on my phone, so I have to go get a new epic. My question is, if my current phone is rooted and I have a nandroid backup, can I restore everything back to the new epic once I root it?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
I just hour my new phone yesterday. Personally I backed everything up using titanium backup pro. Once I got my new phone rooted and installed my rom and my theme I was running before hand I restored just the apps in tb no data. I'm just manually setting everything up again as its a fresh phone and it deserves a fresh start.

A good idea before installing all your apps again is to see what your phone can handle as far as oc and uv. That way your not fighting the apps fc when testing your limits
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Martinpibb22:
Alright, thanks for the response. Sounds like a good idea.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gocats7:
I am using the newest talon kernel and vpnc widget and it works with our vpn concentrator. We use IPsec with group and group password. I am SO glad I got this working but from a security prespective vpnc widget leaves much to be desired. I do not want to have the username and password save where if someone took my phone they could remote in.

So my question is does anyone know of another application that will work with Cisco IPsec group authentication and permit it NOT to save the username and password. I downloaded an applications called "VPN connections" but it would not work for some reason. No logging that I could see so no idea why it failed.

This is huge for me with my job, I need to be able to test connectivity remotely but I also do not need to open my organization to risks by allowing an app just to be clicked on and boom...your inside our network.

Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedoman:
I am new to this so I need help. Got impatient with verizon a few weeks back and downloaded and flashed my phone with Odin using ED01 build of Froyo for Verizon Samsung Fascinate. Everything was great, the phone was rooted and had CWM Voodoo lagfix recovery 2.5.1.x. Verizon releases Froyo finally and I decided to flash my phone back to Verizon Stock using DL09-leak zip. It loaded fine and starts fine. The only thing is now my phone is stuck with zero memory showing in the internal memory. I can't add apps or do anything. There isn't even enough memory to keep the initial setup setting. I have to enter them each time the phone is powered up. Someone tell me how to fix this problem. There are no apps on the phone above stock apps. I even backed up my SD card and reformatted it to be sure there was nothing on it mucking up the system. Same result.

Had Nandroid backups which when restored had lost apps from previous and also no memory. Can't even download terminal emulator to do command lines, even if I understood them.

Not voting yet, as I don't know whether I can revise my answer, and Amazon is supposedly *about* to ship now too, but I have an origin scanned NewEgg order, I have a Tiger Direct order supposedly awaiting pickup, and I have an Amazon order "shipping soon" but with no ETA. Once Amazon ships, I'll vote in the poll to add all three.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seeingwhite:
Amazon

Amazon x2.

1 in hand.

1 due Monday according to tracking.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:
OK, Amazon has shipped out, so that's now tracking numbers received from all three companies. Amazon and NewEgg had origin scans immediately, Tiger Direct still hasn't done despite getting the tracking number first.

NewEgg was by FAR the fastest to ship, and Amazon took the longest by a good half day.

Of the three, the only good experience was NewEgg. Amazon and Tiger Direct were both absolutely terrible, required multiple chase-ups to get anything done, flat-out lied to me at some points, and likely still wouldn't have shipped if I'd not done anything to get them moving.

Although they haven't admitted as much or given me *any* real information, Amazon's issues seem largely to relate to my decision to use One Click purchase, which I'll never be using again. (Doing so appears to delay initial processing of your order by 30 minutes from the time the last One Click item was added to your account, even if it is a completely separate order with separate shipping and invoice from the other items you've purchased.

Tiger Direct's issues seem to relate to basic competence, and I have no intention of ever buying a product from them again.

The only company not to ship anything to me at all was B&H, but in fairness, they were the second-last order placed (the last one placed on launch day), and I cancelled the order with them immediately that I received my first tracking number from a competitor.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timtlm:
No, he was just trying to get one. Every time he ordered one, they would be out of stock and not ship, so he would try the again. I did the same, but was able to cancel the unsuccessful ones before they shipped. If you followed the us availability thread you would know he just plans to sell the extras at cost to other members.

Edit : someone claims to have bought one from office depot. Hmm, I haven't seen anything about them ever having it.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxploration:
Yep, timtlm's spot-on. I ordered from Amazon shortly after they went on sale, but could see they'd screwed my order up, as they never tried to charge my card or ship, and at 5AM on my supposed delivery day, they suddenly backordered me. So, I ordered from Tiger Direct when they briefly came in stock, they again accepted my order, this time my card was authorized too, and my order went to the warehouse for six hours. Then they too backordered me. In the meantime, I'd also gotten into the queue at B&H, who I knew were backordered, just in case they got stock. I knew I'd be very near the start of their queue, because I prepared very carefully to order when they opened for business.

Turns out all three of the above shipped out orders to customers behind me in the queue, and skipped me.

So I placed a fourth and final order late on Thursday, when NewEgg briefly came in stock, having seen my other orders being ignored despite calls and emails to try and fix the situation.

NewEgg shipped the following afternoon, but in the meantime I'd apparently put the fear of god into a manager at Tiger when I'd called them the previous day, and my order was the very next one they shipped. And finally, Amazon claimed to have identified a problem in my account after two hours of web chat and 3 or 4 detailed emails from me. So they started shipping too, but with no ETA.

Tiger I couldn't stop from delivering at that point, but UPS hadn't scanned my shipping tag, so I also couldn't trust them not to screw up again and print a tag then leave it sitting. (I have only a week to receive the tab before a lengthy overseas trip.) Amazon had no ETA, so I likewise had no idea if I'd sit in "Shipping Soon" for days. I cancelled B&H at this point, but I didn't dare stop NewEgg.

Turned out NewEgg shipped before Tiger scanned or Amazon gave me an ETA. Then in the next few hours, I suddenly had scanned tracking numbers for all three.

And I'm planning to sell the extra two at my exact cost, once they arrive. (Well, unless my wife decides she wants to keep one too.) I've been through hell with this launch, and I want to do the right thing by other people who are having similar issues. So I don't intend to make a single cent on the sale (but equally, not to lose any money.)

Thanks to Tim for stepping in to defend my rep, and no offense taken from anybody else. I'm thick skinned and know you were likely joking about. I just figured you might be interested to hear the whole story. (And honestly, it's therapeutic typing it.)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flacoff:
I ordered at about 12:05 am on release day from Amazon. sat there and refreshed the search page for at least 20 min before submitting the order.

I did see green "in stock" designation on the product page and quickly ordered the 16 gb and the dock. By the time I finished ordering all stock was gone.

there was no estimated arrival or ship date on the order status page, i just assumed i missed the initial run and would have to wait for another re-up.

forgot to check my email for a day and half, come back to my house on Saturday afternoon (ordered 4/26, shipped overnight on 4/29), only to find a carrier called "OnTrac" leaving the front of my house.

I didnt give it a second thought, I just figured they were delivering next door or my housemate got something.

good thing someone was home! I walk in and find a modest size box, look at the label, to me from Amazon. Nice.

also, i don't think the limited stock available is a function of Asus doing it on purpose or super, abnormally high demand. I do believe the reports that they had trouble sourcing different components in order to met their initial plan. there is no business case for creating false shortages to increase demand in the tech world, it's first come first serve for profits, IMHO of course.

Everytime I reboot My device some of my widgets wont show. It says problem loading widget. To get it to work again, I need to reinstall and re-add them. Why? My smart keyboard pro also does this. I have a Fat partition.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Annoymous Man:
What's your default launcher? Which ROM? Firmware/BaseBand? With or without App2SD?

And have you tried changing the default launcher to see if it's a launcher-related bug?

Same happens to me, What I do, move them to Phone and Voilá allways working, if it works to you, press on the thumbs up :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Theshawty:
Default Launcer is ADW EX, ROM is MiniCM6 1.0.0, firmware/baseband is obvious. App2SD is the FroYo native.

I shall try this. The applications causing trouble have been moved to the phone memory. Will see if it does help.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] meegs:
Widgets always need the main program to be on phone not on SD card, else on next reboot you end up with problem loading Widgets error msg, just move the app back to phone memory, and replace the widget and all will be good
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Annoymous Man:
Just did an experiment on this issue, APN On/Off Widget, by CurveFish, running from a C4 microSD, from system/sd/app, starts up without problem.

Anyway it's always a good practice to place important tiny widgets in the phone memory, IMHO.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Akath19:
Actually all widgets must be kept in Phone memory, it's an OS limitation.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Annoymous Man:
Not exactly to custom 2.1 ROMs with App2SD scripts. I tried adding Fancy Widget to system/sd/app under Zeam Launcher this morning. Both the widgets I mentioned above turned up as expected.

And that's why I asked Theshawty which ROM he's using. MiniCM ROMs create an sd-ext directory under the root directory and chop some programs into two parts, smaller part in phone memory, larger part in SD card... The 2 App2SD methods act differently. FYI.

Ok just going to say, I realize this may have most likely been solved before, and i have tried searching on these forums but can't seem to make clear exactly what i need to do

First off, My friend and me both have the SGS vibrant from Bell,

My question is:

Me and my friend keep getting failed text messages, as well a speratic data signal, and on occasion are calls will cut out, is there any solution to this other than sending the phones in?

I have looked at the forums and keep seeing this 850mhz band and that it is better? will this solve my issues?

Thanks any help is appriciated as its driving us crazy, we are on completely stock firmware, haven't yet updated to KC1
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
there are a few things you can try to fix this issue.

i have this issue with 3g (i have no 3g coverage) so i only use 2g networks, this saves battery and ensures i have good signal..

next thing you can do is the 850mhz is better (so i have heard) so feel free to try that out.

and finally, have a play around with a few modems. flash them thru recovery, and see which one gives you best coverage.

there are about 20 different modems for the SGS and i have tried them all before settling down for the JQ1 modem :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirby001:
Ok thanks that sounds good, the only thing is that i'm in an area where the 3g coverage should be pretty good, so I don't know why this would be happening,

I'm curious is the antenna on the galaxy s fairly wonky?? does anyone else have these problems?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
the antenna is good, but all depends upon your region.

you can check on your providers website for coverage in your area, that may be affecting you, unless this problem has always existed.

but as mentioned before some modems are terrible, some are amazing. so its trial an error to find the best one for you.

the SGS is a good phone, but not until you have hacked it to unleash its full potential. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirby001:
Yes this problem has always existed, In fact its on three different phones now, (just phoned my friend) 2 vibrants, 1 fascinate, we all get text messages that fail probobaly around 15% of the time, Is this a know issue? does changing the modem fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
well im not familiar with the vibrant or fascinate. i have the international version so i couldnt tell you if this is a known issue.

i have had issues myself and changing modem helped ALOT, but my issues were not as bad as yours.. BUT.... if this was a known issue im sure we would of heard more about it.

i hope some vibrant or fascinate users can shed some light on this... sorry i couldnt help more
