[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
I think the fact that current devs share just about everything they put into a rom, openly... makes for better roms. I've asked k0nane, nullghost, nubecoder, tanimn, roderick, drockstar, thomaskull666, cyc and countless others for information time and time again, and have never been turned down, or ignored... that's the way it should be, I share whatever small contributions I come across, because without them I wouldn't be doing ****...

(And noobnl too)

Glad to see this isn't the end of development for our phones. In fact, I think we'll be seeing some nice stuff from our niche dev's here in the future. Can't wait myself.
[XPERIA X10 General] Denius507:
Agreed, lets stop devs until they do something actually.. Call me insane but SE roms although slow are stable in one way or the other, and dev roms are not, full with bugs, wlods, freezing, ?!?viruses?!?.. Developed on someone others idea !

And all that is done is unfinished.. Always something missing.. And every two to three days update.. After what we get pls stand by "work in progress"..

100 ROMs and everyone missing something.. NO COOPERATION AT ALL..

Finally in latest happenings they shown us why they can't cooperate..

After all ROMs I tried, SADLY, but I have to admit that I have returned to stock ROM !!

I had faith in you but seems that mine faith was futile..

Sorry guys.. I m dissapointed..

DO something SERIOUS or get a real job !!

Stop spouting rubbish. All work on here is a work in progress. its a community of official developers who develop nice things for us in their spare time.

so for you to come here and display not only a lack of basic understanding of how far we've actually come but also a massive amount of disrespect is actually quite upsetting, if you have read the forum you'd know that A, most of the roms here are BETA or ALPHA B, We have no boot-loader access so cant get a lot of things working

Im expecting your apology via pm so i can replace you embarrassing post with it

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkndfun:
After reading alot of post, and still waiting on my Tab to arrive, I have a question. I wish to replace my X with a new Tab. Verizon has told me that I can give my current X phone number to my Tab.

Can I then forward my Tab number to GV, then forward to Skpye and anwser it on my tab?

Then put my tab # as my outgoing Skype number and make outgoing calls?

Am I missing anything?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheChampJT:
Yes and no.

Yes because it should work, it's what I've been (trying) to do. No because I think the latest app update messed the app up, I haven't rec all my calls.

Pretty sure its an app problem, I've rec all calls on my PC and iphone thru skype, but I'm still checking my settings to see if the problem is there, but I doubt it.

I've got it setup by adding my skype online number as a GV fwd number, and to make calls you have to do it thru skype, as a stock tab, you cant dial from contacts, maps, etc.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkndfun:
"to make calls you have to do it thru skype, as a stock tab, you cant dial from contacts, maps, etc."

Good point didn't think about that. I will settle for that if I can make calls.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheChampJT:
Yeah it's not really bad, same as using it on a pc, I'm sure theres a way to change it, just havent cared enough to look. On my captivate I can call thru skype from contacts, but the tab needs the dialer support. Let me know if you are able to rec all your calls.

i attempted to root my phone thats running froyo using the How-To [Root] The myTouch 3GS if you updated to Offical 2.2.1 and lost root method....needless to say it didnt work for me and was in a bootloop (Hboot said the bootloader was bypassed when trying to update) so what i did afterwards was batt pull and did a hard reset-clear storage and everything went back to normal so i hooked my phone to pc and attempted to try the process again but not the pc doesn't reconize the phone using usb and when i unplug the phone from usb it ALWAYS reboots... also the phone is not reading my sd card(sd card is fine i put it in my card reader and all files are still on there) any help?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carolinakidd:
as a side note to all who jus peeked at the thread.....when i connect the the phone to pc via usb i only have the sync and charge option...crazy thing is it still works running 2.1update jus no access to sd..so at least its not bricked right????
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mojoffdawal:
As a starting point I would suggest you save all the important files from your sd card onto your pc and then reformat the card on the phone(if it allows it) or using sd formatter or other software on your pc.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carolinakidd:
tried that already its like the phone is not reading the card or pc i used an adaptor to format the card in FAT32 and had the same issue.. but the phone still works fine...any other ideas?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mojoffdawal:
You can try going into recovery using Droid explorer (pc software) and see if you might be able to mount the sd card that way.

In addition, you might need to reinstall the drivers for your phone on the computer, if I'm not mistaken installing HTC sync on your computer should take care of the drivers for you.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carolinakidd:
If that involves using usb cord it wont work....the pc wont reconize the phone...and when i check device manager the driver is not there

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
Just wondering, what recovery are you using? I haven't had any issues on AmonRA.

Posting directions... follow everything exactly..

INSTRUCTIONS

BACK UP YOUR MEMORY CARD TO YOUR COMPUTER THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING

Reboot into recovery

Select Partition sdcard

Select Partition SD

I have a 18GB Card so i left the swap at 32mb you can choose 0 if you like

Ext2-size = 2048 (this is 2GB the reason so big is because of the 3.0 packages taking up so much space)

Select upgrade ext2 to ext3

Now go back and mount your sdcard

Drag all your files including the ROM and PRI on there

First flash the PRI and hit reboot let it flash the 1.77 Pri this will make sure your phone sleeps

Next flash the rom and enjoy!!!

Are you sure that you have a signed zip? If not, you may have the PC36IMG. Open the zip file and have a look. If thats what you have, take the PC36IMG place it in the root of your sd card. Restart in bootloader and you can install from there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.frankm:
Quick question. This is my first gorilla glass device. I'm a device freak and need my g2x to stay in perfect condition. I haven't taken the screen protector off since I got it (23.)

I want to know if the screen protector is necessary and if so does it produce extra glare? (Its great right now in direct sunlight... but still...)

Also... does it prevent fingerprints without one? If not can I use rainx on it? (It works on my gtablet)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DarknessTM:
the g2x has gorilla glass?....im not trying to be rude..but i didnt know that...if so..thats a plus!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aquariumdrinker:
So my last phone had Gorilla Glass. I kept it in my pocket with keys and such, and dropped it pretty much monthly. After 18 months, the glass was pristine even as the rest of the phone was beat to hell. So I posted somewhere on this forum, in response to a question much like yours, that there's probably no need for a screen protector if you have Gorilla Glass. Except that I already have a scratch on my screen, and am going to be getting screen protectors for my G2x.

Shorter: Gorilla Glass is great, but not impervious.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.frankm:
After some more googleing its not gorilla glass (but it's something else like it dragon?) But does the g2x get fingerprints?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] snofrandy:
It has Gorilla Glass. Even the box says so.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] bdkinney:
I don't use a screen protector myself...but fair warning, if you can turn your pockets inside out and find tiny grains of sand in 'em you might want to get a screen protector. Sand can and will scratch glass. I live in Kansas so it's kind of a non-issue for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] snofrandy:
a screen protector is always a good first line of defense. It's also cheap. A lot better than spending a lot of money replacing a scratched screen (if you're nit-picky about it)

When I bought my phone from t-mobile the rep took a pair of scissors and scraped at the demo model nothing happened when he did that i bought the phone.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wewoapsiak:
There are a lot of videos on youtube with people trying to scratch the optimus 2x & G2x. That being said, it's an inherent property of glass that allows it not to be scratched by metals. Explanation here.

I will say though, if you phone falls out of your pocket while riding a bike and skids on the pavement face down, the glass will get scratched like hell. I don't know if a screen protector would have helped, but I now have one on my new phone just in case.

For me, it's to get rid of the reflections off that shiny glass screen and reduce the icky fingerprints and smudges. I keep my phone in a belt case, so I'm not worried about scratches, but an anti-glare screen protector sure makes it easier to see what's on the screen.

Yeah my wifi is rubbish. Disconnects each time i try to download something that is a little "big" from the marked or read web pages. It's annoying as hell but it seems like the next update from SE will have a new baseband. Hoping that will fix it else it's going back!
[Xperia Arc General] samob:
Yeah, hopefully the next update does fix this issue. It is more stable on my home network, but still drops out occasionally.
[Xperia Arc General] eatapple:
Yes, I just this Rogers phone today. I have the same problem or even worse. as soon as I open something that's a little big from any online apps or webpage, it disconnects wifi. but it still shows wifi connection on the top. Worse thing is, it seems to crash my router as well then disconnect my whole home network. I have been using my router for more than two years and it never had any problems. (I game and p2p a lot on my ps3 and pc). I have iphone4 wireless hooked up with my router as well and it works flawelessly when open up the same webpage which causes wifi disconnect on my arc.

I am thinking about returning this phone and get nexus s if they can't get it fixed soon....

wifi weaker than x1 (and to think that x1 wifi were pathetic), data on gprs/3g a lot better but it's Android thingy. most errors come from carrier in my experience.
[Epic 4G General] p3dr0maz:
Good info.

Do the original files get messed up anyway? I'm guessing the original files stay intact yeah? Or do they end up being messed up and unusable?

So for example, an mp3 file ends up in LOST.DIR but really it's still on your sdcard and you can play it with Media Player?

Let us know if a higher class card == less LOST.DIR files once you get that.
[Epic 4G General] mkasick:
If I had to guess, it sounds like silent write corruption on the SD card, whereby writes to the card are reported successful, but the written blocks are (ocasionally) corrupted, which don't show up until they're later read. In which case I'd suspect the controller on the SD card itself is to blame.

If it wasn't silent corruption, i.e., writes were returning errors, the SD card should remount read-only automatically and there would be some OS-level notification. Although I suppose any such notification could be ignored.

The mounting issue is possibly a red herring, for two reasons. First, data blocks written to the SD card are also cached in RAM. Thus, once mounted, most of the read operations on critical file system metadata will come out of the file system buffer cache and not actually from the SD card. So even if the write corruption is an on-going thing, it could easily go masked until a device reboot or SD card unmount/remount, at which point the cached blocks are purged and (the corrupted versions) read from the card.

Second, fsck_msdos, which is responsible for populating LOST.DIR, runs at the time the SD card is mounted which is why mount events often corresponds to lost files showing up there.

Not to outright dismiss the existence of a kernel-level software bug, but the fact that relatively few folks for a given device are frequently reporting the issue leads me to think it's often hardware (likely SD card) related, or a result of a very unusual set of circumstances. At least, for the many bugs folks report having on the Epic, rampant SD card data corruption is not one I'm aware of.

See if the new SD card helps, if it does, I'd say you just have a bum card and wouldn't even blame it on a particular brand or class.

If you continue to have issues even with the new card, it would be nice to rule out a hardware defect with your particular Epic, but short of you getting a new phone or other people reporting the same issue, that would be difficult to do.

Otherwise the two best things to do are to: (i) figure out a set of files/operations/whatever that reliably repeat the corruption issue, if possible, and (ii) narrow the sources of corruption down by avoiding mounting the SD card on other machines. You may have to occasoinally "Unmount SD card" and remount it from the Settings -> Sd card and phone storage for the corruption to show up though.
[Epic 4G General] rsage:
Very good question - the answer is "all of the above" :)

Some files (I'd say ~25%) have been recoverable once I've been able to figure out what they are. The majority of the files have been unrecoverable though - either because part of the file remained in its original location and part of the file got moved to LOST.DIR, or because several files or pieces of several different files got moved from their original locations to LOST.DIR and got "munged" together in one file.
