[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dtowngs4g:
i've had the problem with the "stock" messaging app going black with one vibrations, then it vibrates 2x and pops up with message that it has stopped working force close. Today I noticed when I press the phone icon to call someone in my call history, there is a little lag on it. However, I also notice my battery is a lot cooler ranging 5-10 degrees. But I know I need to reboot phone, it stays on a lot, which will probably help with the 2 problems i've had so far. other than that no major issues. i am currrently running Whitehawk's deodexed KD1 with stock and 3rd party apps restored by TI backup
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
I've noticed a few issues with the market but nothing major. Easy fix for any apps that have issues, Settings>Applications><App>>Clear Data. Re-open app.

That has resolved the market issues I've had.

In regards to the texting issue, I haven't experienced that at all. I've texted several conversations at once as well, incoming and outgoing etc.

The LCD Density isn't something I have messed with, in regards to that it's been talked about several places that modifying those settings could have adverse effects. Some apps may work but others will have issues. The cost outweighs the benefit on this one for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
I have had 1 app issue(psxfordroid) it would lock up. Not the phone just the app, fixed it buy uninstalling and reinstaling. Anyone notice a lag somtimes not all the time but every now and then(like hitting the return or home key)?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sgyee:
The more I play with KD1, the more I'm getting lockups. I'm about ready to go backwards to KC1.

I wipe KD1. Reflash it with blanking out user data and cache. Blank out my SD card. I still get issues where market apps don't install. Very irritating.

Like I said - I'm about ready to flash KC1 Deodexed and let it sit until some custom ROMS come out with CWM. I never had issues with KC1 Deodexed or Odexed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
I only noticed this evening and have not seen it mentioned here (I may have missed it) but Samsung Market has just updated to 2.0.5. There are a few nice new apps there as well inc. a dragon riding game.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dilbert83:
Updated mine to 2.5.034 about a week ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
Why does it have a different build number in settings/applications to the one in the about screen of the app itself? Mine is as yours. 2.5.034

Updating Android Market Share

Gmail Blogger Buzz Orkut Google Reader Bookmarks » More

Comment Print For Android 1.6 and higher, the Android Market application automatically updates itself when new versions become available. This is a silent update which means you will not see a notification and will not be prompted to update. Perform the following to ensure the latest version of Android Market is updated properly:

Android 1.6 - 2.3

1.Launch Android Market

2.Switch to the Home screen

3.Wait 5-10 minutes for Market to self-update

4.Re-launch Market

Android 3.0

1.Launch Android Market

2.Touch My apps in the top right corner

3.Switch to the Home screen

4.Wait 5-10 minutes for MyApps to self-update

5.Re-launch Market

To check the version of Android Market:

1.Press Home, press Menu, and touch Settings

2.Touch Applications

3.Touch Manage applications

4.Touch the All tab (Android 2.2 or higher), or press Menu, touch Filter, and touch All (Android 2.1 or lower)

5.Scroll down and select Market

The version number appears below the Market title.

To check the version of MyApps:

Repeat the steps above, but select MyApps instead of Market. The version number appears below the MyApps title.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] agnivo007:
To update market, clear data for it and relaunch market, easy and works!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xpcomputers:
My Samsung Market just updated itself to 2.5.039 which sounds even newer!

I don't see the game you mentioned though.

I also had a question... A few months back, I'm sure there was a photo editor app on the Samsung Market, but I don't see it anymore. I'm sure I tried installing it, and it failed, and now it is gone. I did successfully get the video editor at the same time, and still have it installed and working, but that is also missing from the Samsung Market list now. Am I right, was there ever a photo editor in there? Does anyone else still see it? Had anyone got it installed on their device? Is it any good?

The other Samsung Market oddity I have is that, the Samsung Market icon tells me there is 1 new update (as does the text in the list inside the app), yet there is no updates listed when you get in there. There used to be two listed in both those places, but only 1 update there, which I installed... leaving me with a mysterious invisible update supposedly available. I wonder if all of these problems (including the game you have that I don't don't see) are regional ones caused by my move from uk to nz and therefore changing sim card. I used to be on uk voda, and now on payg 2deg in nz.

I might try my uk sim card to see if it offers me anything different.

Any thoughts?

Mike
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jobiza:
If you have CWM try clearing dalvik cache from advanced and regular cache. :)

Your device thinks you have that photoeditor, which offers update, which you can't see in the samsung apps as it failed at installing, this is just my thought which came first in my mind. :)

Also sim card shouldn't be affected to what your samsung apps offers, only the CSC should.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] plavush:
Still don't work for me :-( Tried to clear cache just say accept terms and conditions and I click accept and still on version 2.3.6
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xpcomputers:
Any implications from clearing dalvik? Any chance of data loss or problems afterwards? Never done it before, so want to check before jumping in.

Thanks

Mike

Garbled meaning induced by swype when posting from XDA app on SGS I9000. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] VytautasK:
Google Market or Samsung Apps? :)

Google Market - 2.3.6

Samsung Apps - 2.5.039
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jobiza:
Actually any problems afterwards is smaller chance to come if you clear dalvik cache twice in a month and when flashing a theme or any other cwm package. Only thing is longer first boot, since it will rebuild dalvik cache from scratch with your new settings and apps. And there is no chance to lose data.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] plavush:
Yes it was my bad :-) I didn't read Samsung market :-)

Same versions on my I9000

Thanks.

[EVO 4G General] SuperSonicEJ8:
Ok so here is my situation. I have a few lines on my evo where he pixels are dead and no longer work. I went in to sprint the other day to get a replacement and found out that my father who is in charge of the account had canceled the insurance :( unfortunately this means i would have to pay o get another one and sprint won't let me add insurance. I was thinking to myself today and was wondering if i could get away with giving my phone to a friend who does have insurance and having him swap it out for another one. would this be possible?
[EVO 4G General] thisguyinoc:
If you "swap" with your friend, you'll actually have to activate the phone on his account (you can do it through the sprint website). When you activate a phone, it asks if you want insurance on it, just say yes.
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Technically yes....but it is frowned upon
[EVO 4G General] KB112:
All you have to do is activate any old junky Sprint phone on your line. Once you do the swap it will ask if you want insurance, select yes and it's added to your line. Then you can swap back tot he EVO and get it covered. In the past when I did this I just used the crap phone for 2 days, then used my good phone for 2 days. Shows that it works and sends/receives texts/calls/data. Then I took it in to the store and got my replacement/repair. You can cancel insurance after if you want. I keep insurance on my expensive phones at least a year though.
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
Wrong! That would be considered a warranty issue and doesn't need to go through insurance.

Call Sprint and speak to the warranty department. I just got my Evo replaced for free through warranty because of light leakage, one flash led not working and a light spot on my screen.

Your phone if experiencing WARRANTY issues. Dont listen to the other replies because they are wrong.
[EVO 4G General] eeeeeeeeek:
Yeah that's a warranty issue. As long as the phone isn't rooted and stock is loaded, they should address it as a warranty issue. If they won't replace it as a warranty, which they should, then do the other thing that they listed, and try again before taking an insurance claim.
[EVO 4G General] willdareal2010:
well i had a samsung transform then a friend of mine was selling his evo and i got it added it to mine and got a new one 3 weeks later as long ad the serial number is open u can get it to ya buddy and do tha swap thang
[EVO 4G General] willdareal2010:
but he as to use it for a few days to not look suspicious you know what im saying
[EVO 4G General] willdareal2010:
now i have a brand new evo with warranty all for a 100 bucks thats a win
[EVO 4G General] tatnai:
bingo .
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Yep, thats a hardware failure, which is covered under the warranty for one year. You do NOT need insurance to get this fixed. If you have had the phone for over a year (which nobody has yet, since it came out in june last year) then insurance would get it fixed. But you are still within a year. Go back to the store, talk to the manager, and explain how its a hardware failure.

If that doesnt work, call *2, talk to account services, tell them you will cancel your account if they dont fix it.
[EVO 4G General] SuperSonicEJ8:
thanks for all of the advice everyone. I didn't expect everyone to be this nice. I am going to try *2 tomorrow morning and see how that goes. If i can't make any progress there then I will have to go the frowned upon route.
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Warranty issues will usually render a $35 fee. They are no longer covered under the new TEP policy. Or you'll be sent to HTC to deal with them but hope all goes good for you :D
[EVO 4G General] Sunsparc:
This.

I think people in this thread are getting confused. He's not talking about filing an insurance claim for this. He's talking about the $35 fee that service centers charge to repair or exchange a device that does not have TEP, there is no "warranty". Warranty only applies for the first year on replacement batteries.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
Um, then why does it say this on page 181 of the Evo 4G user manual?:
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
Yes you have warranty with HTC bit its not something that Sprint will honor themselves without the $35 fee. There is no need for a fee however if you deal directly with HTC which usually involves mailing the phone to them.
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
Um, they should..
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
No this changed a few months ago. Its cool for older phones past warranty that would've been SOL without TEP cuz $35 gets them a new one. But unfortunately for phones that don't have insurance even with warranty there is no longer a free fix or replace policy at repair centers. Any work done or replacement would require a $35 fee.

Nickel and diming by sprint once again
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
I have gotten 4 HeroC's and 3 LG Optimus S with NO insurance replaced by sprint. The last Optimus S I had replaced I needed to pay $35, it is mandatory, though they can turn around and credit your account $35 right back :) No I didnt brick all of them, lol. The HeroC's were screen's or speaker's, the Optimus S's were screen's and OK I did brick one of them :D Oh, I forgot I had a Intercept replaced as well, no fee or insurance. After I had to pay $100 to have a old out dated Samsung Instict (old style) replaced under insurance I decided never again will I pay $7 a month. These phones are warrantied, and sprint honors the warranty under most circumstances. Sometime it will take a few calls, I take that back, every time it will take a few calls! It is easiest to head over to the local sprint store, that is if you do not have obvious damage. Dont forget when calling, you dont have a car and you broke your leg (lol). Research and find a address FAR away from a sprint store, thats your new temp address ;)
[EVO 4G General] SuperSonicEJ8:
i talked to sprint on the phone today. they are shipping me out a new evo. and you were right about the 35$ fee. but I'm cool with it. it's a hell of a lot better than paying full price for one.

I don't know if I am doing something wrong here, but I did finally get this installed (had to do a total wipe of all data / cache /dalvik, etc) - I got it set up, and it all works real nice. Now I just noticed that I have no voice input. There is no mic on the keyboard, and there is no settings for the voice input. Apps that request voice input (eg, Handcent SMS) reply that voice input is not supported on this device.

I sure hope I don't have to wipe and re-re-re install things :(

Other than this, this seems to be a very promising ROM! :D
