[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
Can I delete the stable zip file of CM 7.1 from my internal SD card when moving from stable ROM to Experimental and replacing with the nightly file? That is, the update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyS-signed.zip have to be left in the root directory?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobidzid:
Of course NOT, you can delete any zip right after you verified the flash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
I'm on nightly, but when moving to RC1 7.2 do I have to do a factory reset or is wiping cache and dalvik sufficient?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
Anybody?

Also, will a factory reset delete all my apps, pictures, contacts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DROCSID:
Ehmmmmm factory reset will wipe everything in your current rom.

But not the photo's stored on your SD.

But a single flash with wiping cache will do the trick I guess.

Apps, yes. Contacts, yes. Pictures, no.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobidzid:
No need to wipe anything. So called RC1 is simply another Nightly with fancy etiquette.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
Thank you all gentleman.

I've never tried this, but to put a ROM on your root drive is the only way to hook it up to your PC and transfer the file that way or can you browse on your phone, download it and then install it like that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobidzid:
That's what the THANKS button is for.

Sure you can download it on the phone - just check the md5 afterwards.

Also, your browser will store it in some non-obvious location. To save yourself a lot of clicking in recovery move it to /sdcard first.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
Which if you saw correctly you'd know that i did.

No, your sdcard will remain untouched.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
If I want to do a factory reset, how do I transfer my contacts to my SIM card in CM 7.2 RC1?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zatta:
You can't. But what you can do is sync them with your Google Account. Much easier and you'll also save other information that you have stored like adresses, email adresses etc.

I'm using Stable version of cyanogen 7.1....I have used to flash Platypus Kernel before,It was not bad but one thing always gets on my nerves,when I pressed the lock key to open my device and use it I realized that touch is not working at all,I have touched the screen,But nothing happened,I've decided to use the original kernel of CM,So I haven't flash any kernels,It was OK for a while,But it came back!!

how can I make it solved???

U know,I have two issue now,sometimes touch is now working at all and sometimes it's like I'm touching one part of the screen and It selects a icon!!e.g. if I am writing an SMS it writes one character several times!!!

PS:when it happens,I lock and unlock my device several times, the problem goes away,but it's so awful.

Problem with install cm7.1 to I9000

Hi all,

pls someone help me!

I tried to install cm7.1 to my I9000 phone (android 2.1 was running on my phone, and it didn't rooted)... I followed wiki description from cyanogenmod wiki... I finished "Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery" section. But it seems was not successfully (command prompt showed it was succesfully).

The phone always try to boot. I can put into download mode (Odin cannot recognize it :( ) but can not put into recovery mode...

I don't know how to countinue!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Honestly, for the time involved, and the space and ODIN file takes up compared to a .zip file, it's not worth it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neon_skunk:
What if you have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G? Then your only option is to use an md5 file with odin. How to we go by converting these files we get into a zip to use with odin? Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sugartibbs:
You have to have a program like winzip to unzip the file.
[Xoom General] ghoticov:
I have been thinking for a month or so about activating my xoom instead of continue to tether it to my droid x. I found that like many, I rarely used my phone any more other than to talk on it. Plus, with verizon starting to crack down on tethering, I thought the time was right. I wasn't about to pay for two data plans, thats crazy to me.

So, I sold my droid x to a friend for $100 and went to verizon and bought an LG Octane and activated my Xoom. No more worrying about tethering and trying to get phone calls at the same time, I love it. No more worrying about wireless tether cutting in and out. No... the Octane is no where near the phone that the X is but I only use it to talk and text... and I love being able to use my xoom on the road for everything else.

Anyone else done something like this?
[Xoom General] timrock:
i too have a droid x and tether it to my wifi xoom. I would get rid of my xoom, but my kids use it to watch movies on, while i watch on my xoom. I couldnt do what you have done, as i dont need internet access that often.
[Xoom General] hoola20055:
I too activated my xoom. It makes it so much less an issue. I have a dx too but could NEVER give it up. I just bit the bullet and got the plan.
[Xoom General] Kcarpenter:
I did this the other way around, I use my Xoom alot, but I got the Wifi Xoom, and to keep work and play separate - I keep all work stuff on my Samsung Epic and all the play stuff on my Xoom.
[Xoom General] Sully9663:
I switched also, I use the xoom as a hot spot to tether my phone when i want data on it.
[Xoom General] ghoticov:
It's interesting the different ways people use their phones and the xoom. I guess that's what makes Android great, the flexability. I just can't imagine paying for data on a phone and the xoom. I have to $$$, I just don't want to spend it that way. lol
[Xoom General] nubsors:
I'd probably do the same if the data plans weren't so expensive. I mean 3 GB for 35 a month? Really? I currently have an Epic 4G on an unlimited plan in which I can tether 4G. It works really well. But to be honest I don't even use it that much. Most of the time I am near Wifi so using 3G makes no sense in most situations. When the LTE upgrade becomes available, I may take another look and see if it makes more sense. I love my xoom though.
[Xoom General] oxeneers:
Having Sprint is great because we can tether 4G and it works great. I have a WiFi Xoom and tether from my EVO Shift 4G. Perfection.
[Xoom General] Kornsaq:
Same, except with the regular Evo 4g.
[Xoom General] ghoticov:
Yea if I had sprint I would have probably just tethered to my phone also because Sprint doesn't seem to be cracking down on it like AT&T and Verizon are. Plus, with it being 4G you don't get cut off if you received a phone call while tether. That absolutely drive me crazy.

Also, Sprint sucks in my area so I had to go with Verizon.

[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
I think so and I'm about to explain why.

I switched to Verizon's HTC thunderbolt from AT&T (out of contract) and being that I pay a month up front, figured AT&T would owe me for a partial month of service. I was surprised to receive a bill for $67 from AT&T that was for 10 days of service. At the time I was busy and didn't call right away. The next month

I received a bill for $403!

I called today and they stated it was $300 in ETF fees. I asked why I owed $67 for 10 days of service and got a response that if I switched service I would have to pay for a full month's of service regardless of how many days I used. I told them the FCC has guidelines to prevent big companies from doing things like that and I would not be paying them for service I didn't use. This is when they began to backpedal and say well as a courtesy we will only charge you for 10 days!?! lol, what a courtesy to actually get charged for what I used.

After an hour long conversation with the customer service manager my bill was reduced down to less than $30. I have experienced this similar type of situation with Verizon in the past after not getting good reception where they tried to charge me for a full month of service after porting over my number as well as unjustified ETF fees.

I didn't have a contract with AT&T yet for some reason they were trying to justify these hefty ETF fees that took even the manager in the customer service department an hour to fix.

I think these big cell phone companies try to bully around the consumer rather than win them over. Then claim they are doing you a favor by treating you fairly!

Hearing about the T-mobile merger I'm really starting to wonder what is going to come of the future of mobile services. I have had T-mobile service for 5 years in the past and never have I experienced these kinds of problems, the big 2 have given me.

Once T-mobile is bought out where will the checks and balances of competition be observed? I would have signed up for T-mobile service but they don't have nice phones nor the data connection speed I was looking for.

Hence the dilema, as these companies get larger they gain more power over the consumer and the manufacturer of the devices. We as the consumer have very little say in what occurs other than to sit on the phone and hope the person on the other end can "work it out" in their system.
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
Large corporations abusing their customers... what else is new?
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
I've heard these horror stories from both sides of the fence (Verizon + ATT). Just like almost every other business sector in America, customer service is going down with last night's dinner. Instead of "The customer is always right," corporations have now moved to "Get them to a position where they can't say 'no'" leaving consumers no choice but to bend over and take it or band together and sue. Pretty soon instead of labor unions we'll have consumer unions...

/rant
[Thunderbolt General] wakestrong:
I guess the better question is how can I let the government know what happened in my situation and allow them to understand what this means for the consumer?

Or are they just getting paid copious amounts of money to justify the anti-trust situation and there is nothing we as the consumer can do to stop them?

Is there no forum for this other than BBB?

I feel like the FCC should know that both AT&T and Verizon are telling customers they have to pay for service they never receive and then when called out they back down acting like I'm getting one over on them.

[Thunderbolt General] itsmemrj:
Well both companies have crappy service, I was a Tmo customer and hated every minute I had them. Couldnt drive home from work without loosing my call 3 or 4 times.
[Thunderbolt General] Tidbits:
To tell you the truth "customer service" varies just like people are. Depends who you get, and what kind of problem you have. I have had friends that try and twist the system and complain poor customer service because they don't get their way. I have seen people with legitimate problems who don't get help because at times reps don't have the authority to fix the problem. A lot of people don't have patience like they used to have. Sometimes how you present yourself dictates the kind of service you get.

On the subject at hand... I don't think it honestly matters... Consumers have been giving up power for many years... If it bothered you that much about pricing then why bother getting service and paying for it. If people stuck to their guns instead of paying for it then prices would change faster than everyone paying for service.

BEFORE anyone cries and say they need blah blah blah for "emergencies"

ANY phone land line or cellular can dial 911 regardless if it has service or not as required BY LAW... So that's a VERY MOOT point.

If it was an emergency then what are you going to do? Text 911, or look up on the internet how to dial 911 and report an emergency?

At some point with the way things are going choices will be gone... The government will soon be telling us what we can and can't do, what services to get, and everything else imaginable... We are almost there anyway with the way people cry about this and that instead of putting their money where their mouth is.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GaiusM:
I have a problem with understanding how the explicit intents work. As to my understanding one can launch a new activity with:

startActivity(new Intent(this,MyActivity.class));

But if I have understood intents in the correct way, the constructor of an intent gets an action and data as arguments.

new Intent(action,data);

What I don't understand is how the current activity can be an action :confused: Can anyone explain this to me?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GaiusM:
Is maybe the calling class given as context to the Intent?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aholstenson:
Intent has several constructors, one taking an action and data, another taking a context and a class.

The context and class constructor is equivalent to setting a component name on the intent. For example if you have an activity with the full qualified name of com.example.android.TestActivity doing new Intent(this, TestActivity.class) is (roughly) equivalent to:

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setComponentName("com.example.android", "com.example.android.TestActivity");

You can read more about Intent in the Android reference.

[HD2 General] koolxx:
after selling my iphone, i've had this hd2 for 3 months. i customized it as much as possible. i thought i was getting the best phone in the world - i was dead wrong. the hd2 falls WAY short of my expectations. for one, the battery is horrible - lasts 1 day with some use. on the iphone, my batt lasted 2 days with lots of use.

another issue was scrolling, like scrolling through tons of albums. the albums would have to refresh as you scrolled - very slow. on the iphone, the ablums appeared as fast as you scroll. and the menu and typing was not as responsive as the iphone.

but what clinched it for me was the lack of important apps. for some unknown reason, theres no nyc subway map for the hd2 - thats unbelievable!! why is that?? on the iphone, theres literally DOZENS of them.

i know i'm comparing the hd2 to the iphone. but when youre justified in trashing a product, you got no choice but to compare it to something else.

i was thinking about installing android on it.. but android has a windows '95 look to it. the icons look so old and doesnt look as modern as other phone o/ses.

anyway, i'm highly disappointed in the hd2. the only good thing about it is the screen size, thats all. i'm finally selling it - good riddance.

my phone of choice now is the iphone 4... cant wait to get it and feel free again!!!
