[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
wireless g speed is 54 MEGABITS per second which, without ANY overhead (impossible) you can see speeds of 7 MEGABYTES per second.

your dsl connection is 99.999999999% positively MEGABITS per second, so you could, without any overhead (again almost impossible), possibly see speeds of 750 KILOBYTES per second of actual bandwidth transfer.

there are 8 bits to every byte ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Thanks. I do appreciate that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
pirate you are missing a 0

7 megaBYTES = 7,000 kiloBYTES

my DSL was 1,500 kB per second at my last place
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
No. Its 8 bits for every byte. Its mathematically impossible to score MORE bandwidth than is actually available.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
To reiterate, 6 megaBITS per second equates to theoretical 750 kiloBYTES

There is not currently a DSL on the market right now that can do 6 megaBYTES per second.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groves226:
Throughput is almost always measured in bits while size is always in bytes. Exceptions being download managers which usually (or as an option) display bytes since bytes (kilo or mega) are considered human readable.

For wireless modes (abgn) and freqs (2.4/5) most modern routers can do simultaneous modes and their supported speeds while only highend ones do simultaneous freqs. An exception being devices that support mode A since it is 5GHz 11Mbps.

Also for the OP.

Somewhere in that router it will tell you the mode you are connected at. My Linksys E3000 shows it in the dhcp client table. Others will show it in the connected wireless devices menu (i had a netgear once that displayed there)

Oh, another thing with some routers. Even though they support mixed mode, if you have a client connected at a reduced speed rate the router may reduce everyone to that rate.... but that is going to be for older devices.

Example: At 6 megaBYTES/second, it would take about 40 seconds to download C5.1.

Questions? Bueller?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
@ pirate

i thought you trying to say the 54mega BITS/ 7mega BYTES was the 750kilo BYTES.

yes you are correct the 6 megaBIT dsl connection is that speed.

but if you read what i wrote. 7 mega BYTES is 7000 kilo BYTES... i was correct.

but misunderstood what you were saying was 750kilobytes.

we were both right, just not understanding each other.

swype talk 2 short.... lol

oh and in canada we do have faster DSL

telus offers upto 15 mega BIT connection over DSL before moving up to optic connection.

Hi everyone,i have a question.I have an hd2 with android and i ve bought an htc tattoo for my father.I have very poor signal reception with this phone even if i lock the network to 2g,in the same position my tattoo have no signal my hd2 have full.I ve read in many forums about those problems,but no solution were found.

I ask you if i can upgrade the radio rom like in hd2 to have a better reception,or if there is something else to do.I have the last cyanogenmod 7.0 rom

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ixus75:
I have uninstalled appbrain but it leave a shortcut on the desktop. How do I delete the orphan shortcut?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Curtisbeef:
Long press on the Icon and drag it to the top right corner it will say remove.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] IIJBII:
This should be the same as removing any icon, app or widget; long press the icon and you will see a trash can icon with "Remove" in the top right corner. Drag the icon to that corner and it will remove it. If this isn't working for some reason after uninstalling the app I would try to turning the device off then back on to see if it removes the icon.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dklapper:
If you have a fat finger like mine, you will see a red glow when you get the soon to be discarded icon in the right place over the trashcan.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcwiker05:
Ok idk exactly what it is called but I know it has 777 in it. The file that is created on your SD card when you root using GFree. I saw someone had it posted on here somewhere a while ago but now I can no longer find it. Anyone have a link to that file? Please and Thank you! I think it may be my last chance at saving my myTouch with that stupid Cache error! The other way I fixed it last time isnt working this time :(
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TmpUsr:
part7backup-000000000.bin is created in root of your /mnt/sdcard/~ when you ran the gfree. If you lost it then sorry I don't think anyone ease's would work as I am not 100% sure if that is device specific but it may be leading to that.

Far as the cache error goes I hope it works out for ya as thats the closest soft-brick we have. But do you have adb installed? If so push and flash the CMWR2.5.1.2 manually. I didn't isolate the issue if it's gfree related as we still need data to verify those who are effected are only gfree users or folks who just simply did root.sh without gfree.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcwiker05:
Yeah I know I had this stupid cache crap before and it was a b**ch to fix :( here is the link to my thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1043459

And I have ADB and EBL (Hboot 85.2007) and last time pushing the old CWM worked but this time no dice I get Write FAILED everytime. So I hear that the PMG15.IMG can possibly fix this issue as well but I need that part7 file and I dont have mine anymore thanks to CM7 killing my SD card a while back :( anyhow I have seen it posted for DL here before and I think it worked for the guy who used it, I mean its worth a shot. It's not like I can do ANYMORE damage to the phone! lol
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TmpUsr:
BTW it was me who posted the CMWR2.5.1.2 flash leak on another forum :P as I was here on XDA manually hacking the SLC-EUDA emmc block trying to replicate the issue the first person in MT4G to have in here. But if all you get now is fail partition update (fail-pu) then there is nothing else you can do. I still need more data to isolate if this is just gfree user based and not those who has s-off with eng boot without gfree. I try to do more test today but I can't roll the gfree maybe I am lucky? :P but ill post my finding if I ever able to get it and replicate the conditions. Only known meth to fix this is replacing the motherboard for now.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcwiker05:
So you're saying PMC15.IMG wont fix this either? I don't understand why last time I was able to ADB push CWM 2.5.1.2 via Fastboot and then go into Recovery, Format cache and it was fine phone booted. I reflashed CWM 3.1.2.4 and went about my business...now it happens again and I can not flash CWM via recovery this time and thus I'm boned?? FML I JUST got this phone...my last ones screen peeled away, it was a referb from insurance so it was replaced with this one.

I work for T-Mobile so I really don't wanna bork my phone enough to hide root then send it in for a warrenty replacement cuz I don't think its right to screw my own company but damn I don't want to be out a phone, my back up phone's menu button doesn't work so it's really freaking annoying , guess I will deal till the Sensation 4g!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VibrantOwnr:
i dont rememeber which unroot thread but one of them has it, and supposedly it works with any mytouch 4g. not just the one it was created on
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TmpUsr:
Well once you have fail-pu on hboot when you try to revert back to PD15IMG (rom/radio) both update will fail as you can't write to the partition block. Now far as I know this is only seen in CMWR3.0.0.0+ which at the time I flashed it manually though terminal. At this point there is way to many variables to consider mostly we need community input as those who is effected did use gfree as it could mean why the emmc simply gets -ro access now I am aware its using slc-euda so you can't low level format it this is the reason they replace the motherboard. We are not just talking about single partition here as it seems the recovery partition is first thing to be effected. I need to do some more work and atm I only have 1 phone and I don't feel like hacking it and end up with dead as I don't have any backup phones as I gave it away. Let me see if I can get another MT4G cheaper from ebay/cl and I can test on it.

Thats the gfree revert meth which is the only place you use part7backup and then if you want to roll back to stock eng bootloader you do the unroot.sh which flash the eng.nb0 and turns S-OFF.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcwiker05:
Alright so let me get this all played out in my terms so I can see if I understand it.

1. Do I actually need that part file? I rooted with gfree so I figure yes

2. Will PMG15.IMG work at all or no?

3. Should I just say F it all and try anyhow? If so anyone wanna throw me a link to the part file?

4. I STILL don't get why this happened the first time! And why the way I fixed it the 1st time isn't doing $hit the 2nd time...

UGH! Damn it why couldn't this happen the end of May closer to when the Sensation 4G is suppose to launch... :'( damn you CWM ghost...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bethknvygrl24:
Such a silly thing I'm experiencing with the music app on the Atrix 4g. When ever I am trying to listen to music through the audio jack, I cant seem to make it through one song with out the music stopping and starting at the beginning. I dont want to have to replace this phone but musix is such a huge part of my phone experience... What a bummer for such a fast phone.

Any similar situations or fixes??
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjjensen23:
have you got it set on repeat one song?

also try a different music app such as doubletwist
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdraconis:
Are you rooted or running any mods / roms?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bethknvygrl24:
No repeat set. Downloaded and using winamp but the same issue is occurring. I'm listening to a song. It sounds like it is trying to skip then half way through, it stops, goes to the begining and sits at 0:00 as if it is paused. This is only happening when I am using the audio jack!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maledyris:
That sounds like some kind of glitch with the headset controls and maybe your headset. Maybe try a different pair? You can try downloading Doubletwist and telling it to take control of the headset controls in the settings and see if that does anything?

i'm trying to get an approximation of how much time the android system uses the sensors. froyo, preferably EC05, but EB13 welcome too

Couple of pics. hope they help. Stock, unrooted EC05
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
thanks... wasn't expecting it to be so high on stock.. how long have you been unplugged? btw looks like u got the gallery bug going there
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
What, you though it was a ROM bug? What a dumb idea. ;)
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
no treats for me

i really dont' remember seeing that much sensor activity while stock... i could be completely wrong...

for the record i LOVE the rom =P
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
I assure you, I didn't sprinkle any magic fail dust on it. ;)
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
very possible that you farted on it though
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Actually those might not help. I forgot that I've been plugging my phone into the pc and out throughout the day.

Typed by Z using the Gingerbread keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
Just change the filter to total since boot rather than unplugged. Sensor usage depends on how you use the phone as well not the same for everyone. If you're on the interwebs or youtube and rotating alot or using the phone the sensor for when to dim the screen, it will be much higher
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] IntenZeD:
I tried to instal a ROM but obviously something went wrong cause now the phone is in a endless bootloop. I cant get into xRecovery. How do i proceed to fix this?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kinglargo:
You'll need to do a fresh install, SEUS.

Take off the battery of your phone, prepare the application to go for a repair, prepare the cable then put the battery in hold back and plug the cable :/ you'll lose your data but will be able to re-use the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
I just got a Galaxy S 4G and I see it only comes with 256MB of internal application storage?!

That's puny.

Am I supposed to just install applications to the SD Card? Even doing that, I'll probably quickly fill up the internal storage with apps that can't be moved to the SD Card.

Is there some sort of workaround here (that I can use on stock rom)?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
I was working on the link2sd solution, but this might be a better short term solution.

Will this fota fix possibly prevent the next OTA from going right or have any other possible ramifications?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MarkP80nj:
If you fill the space that is reserved for the fota files, it will.

But if you still have the space, all you have to do is delete the replacement files, reboot, and the original ones will reappear.

However, whenever there is an update, there is likely to be a flashable ROM quickly following.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
Well the whole point of clearing out the fota space is to use the space, so anyone looking to do this wouldn't have room for the real fota files to come back in order to get an OTA.

Point taken about a flashable ROM though perhaps that would need to recreate the fota files to work or might recreate them anyhow and then what?

Seems a bit risky to use try to use up space that the system has reserved.

Not sure the link2sd solution is much better. I'll have to read up on that one a bit more.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] golmar88:
Apparently the fota files weren't that important. In the new update they're 35mb a piece, totaling 70mb in all. Worse comes to worse, titanium backup, delete a few apps, reinstall fota files and update. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
I did the fota fix and removed all the bloatware and both efile and super manager say I have 430mb of app storage space. Just thought id throw that out there
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
My bad. It was titanium backup and efile.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
So basically a soon as I get that new update (will I get it automatically if rooted?), I'll have another 180mb to work with due to the smaller fota files?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] golmar88:
You will not get the update automatically, rooted or not. You have to update through kies mini. It will not let you update through kies mini if you are rooted. I just flashed the "deodexed KD1" from whitehawkx, then reapplied the fota files to free up the other 70mb. I wanted the most free space I could get... but that's just me. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
From my understanding and im a noob the update will be sent in small updates or you have the option to get the new samsung kies and do it all at once.please correct if wrong. but I also would like to know what is the value of these "fota files". And im not sure the new update will fix this. the update is mainly a fix for small bugs on the phone for a list of what it will fix check out t-mobile support they have it posted in the galaxy s 4g forum. Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Thank you golmar88 I did not no that you wouldnt recieve the update if rooted. Will have to apply it my self. But right now I see no use because I havent experienced any problems except trouble sending a few texts.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
I have a Vibrant too, so I'm somewhat familiar with the process.

So, wait, there's that froyo maintenance update currently, right? That's the one that greatly reduces the size of the fota files? Why does the tmobile release say that people will get it gradually. Is that an OTA update? Will I get that if rooted?

Is that available to me right now in Kies mini if I plug in my phone?

Can I unroot first with superoneclick? If not, how do I get the update?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
I am pretty sure even if u unroot they can still tell u were rooted. Not a 100% sure though. Also yea if you were not rooted you would receive the update OTA. I am rooted and still have KB5.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
So then how do I get the update?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
check the forums for any update. If you are into modding your phone, Im sure you will frequent this forum. the community will more than likely get an update or leak pretty quick.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lexluthor:
Just did the update via ODIN.

Seems to have gotten me an extra 90MB or so of internal storage. Was hoping it might have been a little bigger bump than that, but I guess I'll have to resort to alternate methods when I need it. I'm at 180MB now.

Need to figure out how to re-root now. I saw some people posted it didn't work via superoneclick.

EDIT: superoneclick seems to have re-rooted me just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tzarro:
FWIW, on KB1 deleting Fota files opened up 250Mb of space...

Once I flashed the deodexed (stock) KD1, deleting Fota files only opened up 70Mb...

I guess that means on KD1 the Fota files were reduced by roughly 180Mb, so perhaps just upgrading to KD1 might open enough space for many...

Adding the stock lockscreen is very complicated, requires editing of the framework.jar and android-services.jar aswell as framework res.

I will begin work on it once we have fully functional deodexed rom
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] breezasib:
Do you think you will be able to do it? Really don't like using bolt on lock screens like widgetlocker.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Depends how similar to the origional sgs the java files are. That's the complicated bit. Waiting on cwm for backups and deodexed rom, then work will begin
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Uvaavu:
If you haven't given widget locker a go yet I would try it.

It's even better if you've rooted and increased your lcd density somewhat (192 seems good to me). I love being able to unlock straight to SMS, Email & camera, while being able to use torch mode without unlocking too... etc.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] eddablin:
The old lock screen is still on in the background. Sometimes it flashes up when I unlock. Is it a bad idea to disable through Widget Locker?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] EViL3666:
I love widget locker, but I'm finding it a pain - my home button first start bypassing it, then when I figured that fix out, hold it down still activates the task manager grr
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenf:
WidgetLocker is great - I've been using it for about a year but only found out the other day that you can get custom themes for the sliders, and because they're mostly just zipped up image files it was relatively easy to customise.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Uvaavu:
This is the 5 second problem. It's discussed in the Widget Locker documentation (and in the settings menus too).

If you root your phone you can get rid of it once and for all. Otherwise Homehelper is supposed to maybe help, but I never managed to completely get rid of the system lock screen till I rooted as you can't override the 5 second thing.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] eddablin:
Okay. Planning on rooting my advice so may try that. Cheers. What is home helper? Do you mean root helper?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Beefheart:
Widgetlocker on my O2 branded unrooted SG2 worked perfectly. However, now I have rooted it and flashed the unbranded firmware the home button overrides it meaning just pressing the home button twice unlocks the phone.

Anyone else with this issue? I have checked to make sure the option to allow the home button to unlock is unticked.

Edit - Ignore me, forgot the Homehelper needed to be set as default.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] breezasib:
Now that Samsung have released the full source we should be in business :)

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
my vote is the puzzle unlock from some sgs models.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] eddablin:
That one is built into Widget Locker if you don't mind using that. Given the power and battery life on the phone I'm quite happy to do that. Although my resource reporting apps show Widget Locker as quite a hog.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Burko:
I hate the Widget locker icon in the notification area. It makes me sad.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrDeacon:
I always liked the original SGS lockscreen. The new, "clear" one seems a little boring. I suppose there'll be just a matter of time before we see the entire arsenal of lockscreens rolling out, though. I guess we all can live with that. :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] SirGadden:
You know you can turn it off right? :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Burko:
I can? Might have to look in the settings properly i guess. ;)

Aha, found it.. Cheers, i must have just looked at every other menu apart from advanced...

Will have to build a nice lockscreen now.

As a sidenote, if you have lightgrid live wallpaper, you can link the colours to your battery life, so using widget locker with the notification bar off you can still see how much battery you have left.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Cezar`:
Wait till devs will take this phone. Lockscreens will flow around ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrPilipo:
Is there any way to disable screen auto lock?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrDeacon:
You could always set the display timeout to ten minutes. :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrPilipo:
Yeah, but that would be waste of precious energy
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrDeacon:
Indeed. But why would you want to turn the lockscreen completely off?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrPilipo:
I don't want to turn lockscreen completely off.

I just want lockscreen to be activated by power button and not automatically.

Like on a iPhone, where you have two options, autolock and screen dimming, and you can configure them as you like.
