Is it automatically creating an access point name?

Go Settings->Wireless and Networks->Access Point Names

If your carrier's info isn't in there, you'll need to find out what it is and add it. Had to do that with my I9000M after putting a custom ROM on it.

Since I run gingerbread, i have a huge issue with email app that drains battery when configured with active-sync.

I have 3 account configured that way (Job , hotmail and client) and 1 pop3 account.

If i unconfigured exchange accounts everything is fine , but as soon as i have one configure, OMG it drains battery horribly. 30~40% /hour and more...

I've seen that the email apps it conume 81% of the battery...

I've try different rom (juwe's, Darky's, Criskelo) and i had the issue with all...

Is there anyone who also has this issue?

May we run older froyo email apps on ginger?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwhooftman:
Same here. Only way i was able to solve it: Buy Tasker and set up a task which enables Auto-Sync every x hours for 5 minutes. Or, if you can live without Push or scheduled sync, untick the Exchange accounts in Accounts and Synchronization.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brotuck:
1. I have one exchange sync that just works fine and does not drain.

(exchange 2003 and https)

2. I have one exchange sync that does drain ALOT

(exchange 2010 sp1 and http)

3. Gmail does also sync without drain

Maybe it has something to do with exchange 2010 sp1 ?

I am using the email.apk from the sgs2....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grokon:

I hope this helps, i have the same problem to. In the battery menu there is sometimes a very steep drop in the graph. After removing one of my 2 exchange 2003 accounts it looks a lot better. The one with the ssl connection seems to be the problem. Maybe turning ssl off is an option. I also have connection issue's with the server with ssl connection, also on galaxy tab.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fylim:
I tried the SGS2 email.apk from Darky 10 R6 but it kept force closing on me. Had to revert back to Darky's Froyo version. I am using stock JVH rom

Darky's Email.apk has been hacked to bypass Exchange security policies i.e. do not enforce policies set by Exchange administrators. I hate the screenlock with pin policy everytime the device screen goes off.

Which custom rom are you using ? Maybe I will try that email apk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grokon:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grokon:
It does better, still 42% after 5~6hours usually I would have to recharge by this time... looks that it will last at least working hours...

Is there anybody else who might enjoy having swype pop-up the letters above your finger when you type one letter at a time? I realize this would only be beneficial when you have to manually enter unknown words, but I think it might make for a little easier typing if you could see the letter, like in the stock Android keyboard.

Any thoughts?

[Acer Iconia A500] gh123man:
hey everyone. i dont come here much but this is kind of a general question. about how many encrypted and or locked bootloaders have been cracked and unlocked in the past? i guess im asking what are the chances that us a500 users will see recovery and roms? i know its up to whoever will figure it out in the end. but im just asking based on past devices. can it be done? has it been done before?

also as a side note. this is just my opinion. i can understand locking the bootloader on a phone so people dont abuse there unlimited data and such. but on a wifi only tablet? its like buying a laptop with a bios password set by the manufacture and the admin account locked out. it just doesn't make any sense to me. they should not be allowed to do this. thoughts?

(please dont take this as a rant. ive been driving myself crazy the past few days and watching the dev forum 24/7)
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
I don't know how likely it is to happen, but I agree with you it's a ****ty thing to do. It'd be fair in my eyes if we have to register the device, put in our serial number, then request an unlock code that invalidates the warranty to unlock the bootloader. That seems reasonable to me, but just straight up locking me out of my device is ****.

I'm hoping this isn't a trend we're going to have to start accepting. I'd rather the openness of the PC slip into tablets and phones, not the other way around.
[Acer Iconia A500] dhruvmp:
Well hopefully that doesn't limit us. They (the community) were able to get around the droid x/2 bootloader to install custom roms, at least in some form. I am hoping this device catches on amongst enthusiasts, together, and by that I mean everyone but me, can work hard on modding this tab...jk.

Thanks for the feedback I'm really glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way
[Acer Iconia A500] Vintage144:
Unfortunately the same reason Apple products are so successful is that people are very "accepting" , The manufacturers dont count on people hacking there products , its a relatively small amount of people who (even) root Android phones , sure they get the press , but how many "moms and pops" own an Android phone unrooted? The majority of owners dont mess with it , they just buy apps and do what the company tells them!

Look how many people in here whine about updates , obviously if they were rooting there phones the updates wouldnt be a big deal!
[General Topics] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
The best part of waking up...is a smartphone in your hand? According to an Ericsson survey, that's true for over one third of Android and iPhone owners.

Check out this article I found.

A new survey from telecom equipment maker Ericsson (PDF) finds that some smartphone users are very, very attached to their devices, finding that fully 35 percent of iPhone and Android users in the United States admit to using non-voice applications before they even get out of bed in the morning.Some 18 percent of those users say they log in to social networking apps before they get up—and Facebook is the most popular. However, social networking from bed only tied with late afternoon and early evening as the most common “situations” for tapping into social networking services. Smartphone users said they were more likely to use social networking apps in the late evening (34 percent), at lunch (26 percent), or in the morning (22 percent) after they got up.

“Our research found apps are appealing to people at an emotional level,” said Ericsson ConsumerLab heard of research Michael Björn, in a statement. “Consumers become attached to a certain set of apps that makes them feel more in control of their lives, and turns everyday chores into positive experiences. Apps even give consumers a new sense of freedom; if a new situation arises, there’s probably an app out there that could help them.”

Overall, Ericsson finds that apps are the key to consumers’ smartphone use, rather than the devices themselves or the platforms on which they run. Ericsson characterizes “app culture” as a new way of living, and notes it is spreading to other devices like tablets. Where before smartphones consumers tended to access the Internet for relatively large, discrete blocks of time during the day, smartphones enable users to access the Internet in relatively quick sessions more consistently throughout the day, and also access the net “the very instant the get the impulse.” Ericsson attributes some of the change of behavior to how apps simplify getting information directly to users: instead of navigating a file system, finding a bookmark, entering an address, potentially logging in to a service, then hunting around for information, apps tend to put what consumers want front and center without the hassle of a traditional Internet experience.

Ericsson also found U.S. consumers’ interest in tablets is almost as strong as their interest in notebook computers: when asked what device they were considering for their next technology purchase, 16 percent indicated a notebook was on their list, while 13 percent were considering a tablet. In comparison, 12 percent were considering a desktop computer, and six percent were eyeing netbooks and ereaders, respectively. And, another indication that the days of the iPod are over, only one percent were considering a digital media player.

The rest is here.

[Defy General] ApathyImp:
So I LOVE the CM7 beta5.1 ( I mean come on Ginger on my Defy) but I get horrid back and forth sometimes 1 bar sometimes full service at my house (which has nothing to do with CM) its justv my location as it did the same thing on the stock froyo and eclair.

On the stock ROMs I didn't really care because of the Wifi Calling app, but CM doesn't support that.

I tried using RootUninstaller to back up the stock apk of the app but after I installed it on CM it just fc's. As far as I can tell this is because it tries to access libraries that don't exist in CM. So what I'm asking is, is there a way to get the app to work on CM? If not I might have to go back to the stock because of my ****ty at home reception. T_T Please help!!!
[General Questions and Answers] :
Hi,

I have a Telus Fascinate (T959D) that I've flashed with Darky's 10.0 "Final".

I've read countless threads that tell me NOT to flash bootloaders to this phone, but we were adventurous (I don't own the device, a friend does) and wanted to try the latest Darky on it since it was working beautifully on my GT-I9000M.

Sadly, Darky's ROM requires a different bootloader, and it comes from an I9000.

After following the guide to install Darky, it effectively puts an I9000 bootloader, kernel, and ROM on the phone. (Shame on me, I know).

OK, so the problems are:

1.) No way to get into download mode or recovery mode without booting completely and issuing a 'reboot download' or 'reboot recovery' from a su terminal (or adb)

2.) The home and search softkeys act like left and right instead

There are other Darky related bugs, but not important to this discussion.

My question is: What is the safest/most reliable way to go back to stock Fascinate, bootloader and all? At this point since we don't have access to download mode without the phone booting properly, we don't want to flash anything else unless it's going to give us download mode back.

I've read the guides on going back to stock, but they all say you needed to have flashed a certain Telus ROM before going custom, and I don't know what exactly this phone had on it for sure. My friend says it was whatever was the latest update from Telus, but he hasn't plugged it into Kies in a while so I couldn't confirm for sure.

The idea here is to go back to stock then flash a custom kernel and possible a different modem to help with battery life and signal problems, and possibly some custom roms that don't require changing the bootloader.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. If any additional info is needed, I'll provide it.
[General Questions and Answers] AntoineDon:

[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Well I just wanted to day "Thank You" to all of the developers,themers,etc. It seems like lately people in this community are really sharing info without problem. Now, maybe that's always been the case but its being seen in the threads more. There have been some great ROMs, kernels, mods, themes,etc. coming out lately. It seemed like we hit a wall after Dk28 but now there seems to be something new and spectacular every day. Keep up the fantastic work and delivering on the greatness.

Now, on to those who post. Thanks to those who take the time to help answer questions, post a link, or even better a zip. I am sure it gets frusterating to the XDA All Stars when the Rookies don't know all the rules. Its easy to say go back and read but sometimes threads are 1000 pages and Search sends you all over the place. If you take the time to actually post the answer instead of posting to read the last 42 pages itss been said, it may actually help you. One day you may have a question ar be looking for a file or zip and instead of someone telling you to hit "Search", they may just post it for you right there. Not everyone knows every XDA forum rules...but everybody learns and I am sure XDA doesn't want people being chased off by someone snapping on/flaming them for not knowing a rule. It may be their 1st or 2nd time here.

In closing, I have noticed and overall better attitude/vibe among not only developers but those of us who just post as well. Things seemed to be dying for a little while and now there a great ROM, Theme, or Tweak on here every day or two. So, the future looks bright! Thanks to those who develop,theme, make mods, are testers and to the helpful question answerers. This is actually a pleasant forum to come to now. Of course the trolls are another story altogether.thanks for taking the time to read is, I just felt it was necessary. Too much hotness being released lately.
