[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlanFlinger:
Bit of a long shot, is there anybody here using a Hero on the Meteor Ireland network ?

Mine is unlocked and I'm with Vodafone, I've tried an O2 sim and that works fine, a friend was interested in buying the phone, when I tried the sim it recognises the sim but comes up as no service.

I've trawled the net and seen numerous posts on the problem but there seems to be none where it's been resolved, well apart from switching to 2g only.

I was wondering if there is anyone out there that is using one on Meteor, if they could tell me what radio they are using.

Cheers

I have a rooted G2x with CWM installed and the stock rom. I set my ringtone as an MP3 on my SD card, and use a stock Android notification tone. But it seems like at least once a day, they revert back to other sounds. Ive never had this issue on any other device, anyone else?

Energizer Energi Stick Emergency Charger for T-Mobile LG G2x /Optimus 2x

I was looking online for external battery options I came across this.

I see it has a keyring, Nice feature, But on my keyring it would get banged around and break.:eek:

It has a interesting design it curved to plug in and be held ot the back of the phone.

I also notice it said 5v and 500 mAh is this compatible with the LGG2X???

If it is, Is the 500 mAh enough to chagre phone and use it?

Product Features

Brand new Energizer charger.

Model number: AP650MC.

Connectors: micro-USB.

Built-in rechargeable battery. 5V and 500 mAh.

Simply recharge with your original phone micro-USB cable.

micro-USB cable not included.:eek::eek:

For the price i think it should include the micro usb cable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrharvey:
This is dumb. Why not just buy an extra battery instead? I mean I bought 2 for 12 bucks and it came with a charger.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
How long have you had you batteries. How long do those batteries run compared

to the stock battery.:confused::confused::confused::confused:

Since they such a good deal, Give us a mini review of your battery life and performance.:cool::cool:

LINK PLEASE.:D

Just tring to get the most bang for the buck in these rough times.

NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE :):):):)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrharvey:
Batteries are 1500 mah and run just as long as the stock batteries. I consistently switch them out. Its so much easier to just swap them then wait for my phone to charge. For an on the go person its perfect. I wish I had a link but I bought them on Ebay. http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_from=R...13&_nkw=g2x+battery&_sacat=See-All-Categories

They are all over and come from hong kong but it only took a few days to get here.

Haha I just bought 2 more and it came with a TPU case, 3 screen protectors (probably crap), USB cable and a battery charger.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bdkinney:
Don't understand why you have to start off with "This is dumb". If it's not your thing it's not your thing...just don't get the epidemic of rude.

Anyway, stepping off my soapbox...personally I like the idea. Usually I'm around a charger...but on the rare occasions I need a boost it might come in handy. Yes, an extra battery is a good solution...but not for me. I keep my phone in a shell and hate pulling it off (seems to lead to new scratches and looser fit).

So, thanks to the OP for pointing this out...might just get one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ScooterG:
5v is plenty to send a charge to the phone. The wall charger is 4.8v. The 500 is just tells you how much juice the battery has. Ours has 1500 vs. this at 500, so it should theoretically last 1/3 of the time our replace 1/3 of the battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
Thanks, Good to know. That battery will not work for me knowing that information.

Thanks again
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elendil_23:
Hello:

I just would like to start this thread wanting to know if you guys know when Samsung is going to release Gingerbread for this amazing phone. Since the last rumors that I heard said on March, now were on May and still nothing from Samsung and on top of that SGS II is already on the market and I feel that Samsung will forget about us...

I appreciate all the effort that people has put to port Gingerbread from the international Galaxy S and I know that are a few bugs on those ports, and not all the people will run to install it on their stock phones, specially, since to get Gingerbread at this point they need clockwork or odin and some knowledge on how to do the process, and that will keep it away from the masses; but still thank you very much to all the people that's working to get it for the Vibrant :)

Finally I would like to say that this community is the coolest thing ever and thank you all for making like that, best regards.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ungovernable1977:
OK,

How many would like a thread completely dedicated to the fun issues of Odin, Samsung drivers, and the issues everyone goes thru with them? This is in response to all the issues or apprehensions with Odin posted in Rom threads, etc. Im sure its all in the wiki from 1985, but maybe a sticky in general or even Dev would help keep the ROM threads clear of Odin issues, as it is Dev, but not exclusive to whatever ROM you are reading about... make sense? LMK and I could update the OP with whatever good tips tricks people post in the thread. Ive noticed people look to threads before wikis, and not even sure if the wiki will show in a site: google search.... soooo...

1) Good USB cable, your sammy cable is ONLY reliable for charging... ive had mine work fine before, but why risk it on a crap cable.

2) USB port on motherboard of your PC... ya know the ones on the backplane with the keyboard, mouse, etc... no PCI card ports, no USB hubs, no front of PC ports... they may work but not reliable.

3) Install Drivers correctly (to be expanded...)

4) Test port by opening Odin and connecting, should see a COM# come up in yellow.. this is handy even if you never use Odin and want to make sure your adb issues are not port related, but adb+driver install related.

5) Devs- please include complete instructions in your OP, such as which version of Odin, where to place the modem file, which boxes to (un)check, which pit you use... so that user do EXACTLY what you did... save posts troubleshooting... most all do this, but there will always be new Devs...

etc.... will put more in if people are interested, and people can vote (if this poll thing works right) where to put the thread.

Thought of this because I see so much apprehension towards Odin, but once you get it to work for your system, its pretty much fool proof, its just getting all the pieces to play with each other nicely.

EDIT: Just reread the 'Odin Stock Flashing' section in the Wiki, much better than it used to be, and the trick re: PDA slot vs. Phone slot is awesome... but it still does not address all the lil quirks of the USB and Driver issues... so maybe we can put together all the tips tricks etc in this thread and then update the wiki... ? Just trying to put together something helpful...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarcKnight:
I used ODIN to root my my Galaxy Note 2 and i just tried to flash a stock ROM back onto it, but now Odin doesn't recognize the file i downloaded. When i hit the PDA tab and go to where my files are, they don't show up. I can't seem to find anything on here so far that addresses this problem. could you please shed some light on this?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Many people have used the stock cable without issue. I personally use a better cable that I bought from Monoprice, but that's my preference. So you can't really say the cable is only good for charging, when people have proven you wrong many times over (silently though).

Again, another area that agree and tell people I'm assisting to do. I have also read of people using USB ports on the front of their PC without issue.

Yellow is only true for 1.x version of Odin. The newer versions are light blue.

It is not a developer's "responsibility" to hand hold people through a process that has nothing to do with their rom.

That is exactly why there is the stickied thread in the dev forum for flashing back to stock. Sure that thread could be expanded upon, with screenshots and explanations of what each field/checkbox does in Odin, but most people simply ask a question here or watch QBking77's video. If you want to expand upon that thread, go ahead. This thread seems a bit unnecessary in it's current form.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
now to start for reference i may use the following terms

internal storage

internal SD

external SD

please note the difference.

This is also referencing the "official android" apps2sd as well as the other ones i have looked at.

in case you dont know any of the apps to SD methods have 1 goal:

to remove apps from the

internal memory

to an SD card, allowing more apps to be installed on systems.

most android devices dont have an

internal SD

, because of this the external SD is the normal place to store Apps to the SD card.

This is also where it stores any extra downloaded files (in case of large games) or user accessible files for apps (docs, themes, game roms, backups, config files) on phones without internal SD.

(All those folders that show up on your internal SD

on a captivate

.)

Now.... the captivate HAS an internal SD.

As far as i am concerned this was only half implemented correct.

THEY DID CORRECTLY now have the app downloaded files, and user interactive files i mentioned above moved to the internal SD.

THEY DIDNT (IMO) move Apps2sd, to the internal SD where it would make more sense.

- having apps on the any SD causes lag at boot, made further worse on the captivate because it mounts the internal SD, and scans it before it mounts the external SD and scans it, and this is where the apps are!

- also if you remove your external SD, you loose the apps.

- the internal SD is WAY more than enough to "want" to have more apps on more cards...

- this would free up the external SD to be PRIMARILY AND EXCLUSIVELY user files.

and remove the last bit of android files that can be removed by taking out an sdcard...

- the internal SD is a class 6 speed, faster than most external SD cards that most inexperienced users end up using.. class 4 ebay/amazon crap.

can we change this???

i dont see any reason why not, we have all the necessary sources for what handles this.

im not exactly running out of internal storage but some users actually do, and this just seems to make more sense.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indigox3:
any update on this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noside12123:
From what i know currently about android and our cappy's, heres the info.

1. 1.8 GB of "Internal Phone Storage" is plenty enough for (Apps, Data, Contacts, etc.) . I have 312 apps on my phone and i still have 896 MB left.

2. As far as i know, the "Internal" SD of the captivate is partitioned into system, data, and is also the internal sd that you can put files in. So if it really was a Class 6 , despite the horrifying write speeds, it would make no difference because the "Internal Phone Storage" is a partition of the built in 16 gb of internal sd.

Again, i know nothing about how our phone works, but this is the info i know.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
I never come near filling the internal storage, so I would not need this for space saving. But, it would make my weekly ROM flash a lot easier to not even worry about those apps.

Apps2insternalsd is an app I would pay for ... and I am not one to buy apps, less than 5 in the past year.

[EVO Shift 4G General] giggz2010:
Does anyone know of a dual booting recovery or a way that i can have two ROMS at once on my phone. That way i can freely switch on start up from cyanogen mod to MIUI.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
I don't know about having two ROM's at once but you could just make a backup of both CM7 and MIUI. It saves all your setting and only takes about 5 minutes to flash from one to the other.
[EVO Shift 4G General] giggz2010:
I assume your referring to a nan-droid backup and if that's so i would love to do that but the issue with that is i have the default android software saved there. I would over write it but the fear of losing it and not being able to flash back in case i need to take my phone back to the store and get a new one. I have actually done this before and they accepted it because i flashed the factory software from a update on te HTC page, unfortunately there is no update from the original software on the HTC site for the shift.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
You can make multiple backups through ROM manager. I have both a Cm7 and a MIUI backup saved to my SD card.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Rooster85:
No he is speaking of a dual boot recovery, where when I powered my phone up I could choose cm7 or I could choose miui to load, and I would have this choice everytime I booted.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I've been looking for something like this for cm7 and sense dual booting.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SirRipo:
There was someone working on this on the heroc forum, but I'm unsure if it ever actually worked or not.
[EVO Shift 4G General] giggz2010:
I would much rather choose upon booting then going through the rom manager. Although i have never tried what you were speaking of so I'll give that a shot. Hopefully i can get MIUI to stop randomly restarting itself so i can use the ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
Now granted this is something that I'm not greatly concerned but as I have been able to replicate it over and over with my phone...

If you hold the phone sideways so the hard-keys are towards your right hand. Now I say the following because people have different grips for their phonez but to emphasize my point that it is possible (the way I held the phone did) to actively see wifi drop. So just as a demonstration while holding the phone in your right hand when you have full wifi bars and 'palm' the 3.5mm jack side in your left hand emphasizing pressure on corner with the audio jack. (Make sure you have full bars when testing)

Now I understand the easy solution would be to flip the phone horizontally the other way. But I'm just curious if someone else had noticed this already?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 21productionz:
lol made me lose two full bars. Good find. It is happening as I type in landscape right now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Never fear. It's called attenuation and happens on all phones. They have to put the antennas somewhere, and your body attenuates antenna reception. :cool::D

Pfffft I knew that :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
...

Yea... I figured that it had to go somewhere lol, but I realized this after getting so damn comfortable with how I held the phone that way. Even which hand the hard-key side of the phone settled in, haha. =X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Agree, it doesn't happen close to the wifi but the weaker the signal yes it will..

But that's expected and happens on all devices and imo doesn't need a thread.

Has anyone here considered purchasing a warranty through squaretrade?

The phone, absent of a carrier subsidy, is quite pricy.

In the case of an untimely demise, I assume that you, like I, would scoff at the idea of going to your "bad flash" backup.

Squaretrade has, iirc, a 2 year warranty (accidental damage included) for $90.

Has anyone used squaretrade before? Any other suggestions or ideas?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FishTaco:
Where are you located? If it is in the US, then Squaretrade will not sell you a warranty on the UK version of the S II.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pinkthesink:
Yeah I'm in the US. That's interesting, why would it matter to them? Replacement issue?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FishTaco:
I can't find the email reply they sent, but it was something about it not having a Samsung USA warranty to start with. I thought it was strange because their website talks about gray market phones so I figured buying from an authorized UK seller would be no problem. They replied relatively quickly, so you could email them and ask.

I also sent an email to Handtec UK asking them about warranty. I asked if the UK warranty would apply if phone shipped to US and if I needed to send back to them or Samsung UK. They replied that I should check with Samsung US to see if they would honor it and if not then I may need to send back to UK. So they really didn't give me a good response.

Now I am either going to wait to see if AT&T announces a launch or maybe check out the HTC Sensation on Tmobile.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pinkthesink:
Thanks for the heads up. I'm gonna try and find out from Samsung USA what the deal is. That's something I never even thought of prior to ordering with Clove.

Will SquareTrade cover the phone if it was bought from Expansys-US? Technically it's bought here in the U.S, but then again Samsung probably wouldn't honor their warranty.
[Atrix 4G General] RPK925:
hi The Atrix has been my first official Android phone, i had a HTC TILT 2, which i flashed to 2.3. But this Atrix is very confusing. The first thing i haven't been able to flash any sbf file since i have gotten the phone. I wanted to go back to stock because my webtop hack wasn't working through adb or gingerblur bloatware.zip in cwm. So extracted the SBF to the root of my c: drive,unzipped, renamed SBF, waited for connection, then it extracts 100%then fails and gives and error but it never restarted. But last night i ran rsd with the sbf from this link http://bandbinnovations.com/xda/OLYF..._1g_1FF.sbf.g[/url], and ran the sbf properly, but after it executed 100%, then started running the phone commands, but while running commands it stopped @86% and gave a error "switching device to bp pass error", i tried to flash this same file a second time but each time it stopped and gave the same error at 86%, and RDS completely stopped. so i unplugged the usb from my computer, and it was stuck at the M logo screen(all night). So i freaked out and thought it was bricked, because no sbf i have tried has worked for me, and my battery was getting low flashing SBF so many times. and almost called att warranty this morning. But this morning i turned my Atrix on and boom it was back to stock 1.2.6?Dont know how i did it,or how do it again properly, but glad im back to stock. But that was extremly confusing and frustrating!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
The link to the LG desktop software has been posted at least three times. The first thing it does is install the proprietary LG USB drivers which you mistook for an update. The Gingerbread update might be available from the desktop app at some point but the OTA update function was activated on the phone yesterday leading me to believe it'll be pushed OTA. Both the desktop app and OTA update check show V10f (the version we're running) as the most current. I'd guess that before the update begins being pushed officially it'll leak so we'll know in advance it's coming. I highly doubt someone will just stumble upon it on the LG site waiting to be downloaded without any forewarning.
