[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] makavelicruz:
Well since this KD1 Rom is a t-mobile update, I don't think you'll have any issues returning it. I would unroot the phone though (if is rooted). I'm not an expert; I'm like on the same boat as you are which is learning all this great stuff, but would t-mobile be able to tell if you were rooted once? not really sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
Thanks. I have that file so I am good shape.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
Thanks for the help. I removed all signs of root so after I swap out the 32 card for the 16 finish getting that straight I should be in good shape.

You might know this, where was the movie on the phone? I zipped it and got off right away so I don't even remember. If you know that would be great.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
#1 wrong section, please read before posting in a section that is defined for development only, not general questions.

#2 TMobile retails stores won't even care, probably won't even check.

#3 If they did check, as long as you are on build T959VUVKB5 or KD1 your fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
What problems were you having with it anyhow?

It sounds like you must have been trying to make modifications to it that are either untested or not designed to work properly with the SGS4G.

I know alot of people call it the Vibrant 4G but it's not the same, there are alot of differences with it, so it's easy for someone with less experience to mess it up. Not saying you don't have experience, but it sounds like you breeze through phones quicker than the flick of a light switch.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
I thought you might have helped being that it was your thread i got the rom from and I asked the question there, sent you a pm but this is the last day to return (typing while files are moving from one sd to the other). Wrong again, you seemed to be one of the ones actually developing something for this phone and not wasting time to criticize people. Glad to be returning the phone and returning to the Vibrant forum.

People should do what I'm about to before buying a phone they want to mess with and that is check out these forums what's going with the development and if there are an overwhelming amount of negativity. And I know that's what some of you did, just thought I'd save someone the time of posting it.

Once again I am learning as I'm sure some others out there are too.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
I have 2 phones the one I am exchanging (returning) the Sam T959V Galaxy S 4 and the Sam T959 Vibrant. That's at least how it's printed on the boxes.

I have not done anything from the Vibrant forum on the Galaxy S 4g phone. I flashed the rom from the thread you posted and went from root to no root. All SU apps wouldn't even open because what was needed wasn't in the needed directory(s).

All's good. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
It honestly doesn't have much to do with negativity.

More so with forum etiquette. I'm not trying to be rude to you, I merely telling you, no matter how much you post "Don't flame me" "don't be negative"...

If you post in the wrong forum anywhere on XDA, you're gonna get a negative response. That's a given not specific to this section.

I didn't see your post over there, until just now. Again cross posting is a no no, I understand you needed and answer. The best place for that would have been the general forum. not the development forum. It clearly says General Q&A section.

You can return the phone, I love my SGS4G and it works great. It seems like your mixing the two issues. Other than a few people on here, the majority get along just fine with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
After checking your posts it does appear you were doing some SD card swapping and what not.

"The thing is, is that I also have the vibrant galaxy s 4g and was using the 16gb sd for both until my 32 came in and realized, not a good idea. So until the 32 came in I decided to just work on this phone but wanted to get any signs of the 4g off this phone so was cleaning it up and now here I am....."

"I won't repeat what I already posted but have gone though over 103 phones (unfortunately, kids) in one year about 90% smart phones."

So if you have gone through 103 phones in one year, than either you're extremely picky, or you just like new phones.

Either way I don't fault you, but don't bag on this forum because you don't know the right section to post in, and you haven't even posted for help regarding the "issues" with your SGS4G.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
Didn't have a problem with the cards and don't have a problem with the phone either so I didn't go over to the threads you posted. I have the sd card that came with the phone and the 32 as well as a 16 for the T959. Use my computer a lot to transfer files and have multiple directories to keep it all separate. No problem there.

If I hadn't bought it after the T959 I am sure I would be keeping it as you are. The amount of development here on XDA is great and I didn't realize that the 2nd memory card (the internal on the T959) that is used like a 2nd sd card but at the same time like the internal memory on all the other phones was removed on the SGS4G. Became spoiled with that as well as the builds on the T959 for themes, mods, roms, etc. Don't mean to insult anyone so please don't take it that way.

You've answered all my questions, thank you and I will contact the correct person letting them know question answered, posted in wrong forum (and multiple times, won't forget that) so this thread can be removed or however they handle the errors (or maybe I'm the first).

Who told you you have 20 days? Standard is 14 for returns
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
Yeah I hear you. I came from a G1 so it was an upgrade. Not much of an upgrade for a vibrant user.

The threads I posted were actually quotes from posts that you had posted on other forums indicating you had issues, but not in the SGS4G forums, in the vibrant forums.

Glad you have no issues with it. No harm done, just to avoid this always check which forum your posting in and try to avoid cross posting.

If I helped lol feel free to click the "Thanks" button.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] DjIsD:
T-Mobile customer service and I called the store, but I have been so side tracked I didn't even there. Tomorrow is my 20th day technically and just noticed I had a lock screen on it the phone I need to get off so maybe I'll just keep this too and try and make some changes to it to make it fun.

Customer service has been wrong before, but I have always worked things out with them. Been with them since 2000 and am down to 5 lines from 7 and a data line so they have been pretty good but then again I guess policy is policy. Then again I do know that customer service (return by mail) was up to 30 days and the store was way shorter. I am surprised it was 20.

When watching movie trailers from all three movie apps, Movies, Moviefone, and IMDB. All looks fuzzy. Moviefone will let you pick HD and it defaults to that but it just looks like standard def.

Am I missing something in setting ?

Help please
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
At the bottom of the product page on Acer's US site is fine print saying that 1080P playback is coming in an update by June of this year. You didn't state the resolution, and I don't know if it's exactly the issue you're having though.
[Acer Iconia A500] rog152:
Thanks, but is that 1080p output to tv or better playback for videos. We have have 720p, right. It still looks bad. Try it, play a movie trailer from one of those sites, when the green movie trailer logo come up it is fuzzy bad.
[Acer Iconia A500] rog152:
Anyone one else wanna help answer this. Watch a movie trailer and tell me what you think.

Are we getting HD playback or not in 720p. Also does it record in 720p HD

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] hurrpancakes:
I've played my own videos on hd on the tablet, an they play an look great.

As for the "movie apps, " if those videos aren't playing in hd, that would be something to ask them about.
[Acer Iconia A500] rog152:
Thanks, Moviefone app says it is HD but it looks standard def, wanna try it for me and see what u think?
[Acer Iconia A500] hurrpancakes:
I watched a couple trailers on Moviefone, and they are not in hd. The application doesn't say anywhere (that I can see) that the trailers are supposed to be in high definition. There is a high quality setting, but no high definition.
[Acer Iconia A500] rickflits:
HD movies

i had same problem that it dident play wel my movies, i now used an other media app and converted a smal piece of a movie from mkv to Mpeg4, it worked nice and smooth over HDMI to my tv, the only realy supported format is Mpeg4 i think,

try get a vid on 720p and convert it (1080p stil not supported)
[Acer Iconia A500] rog152:
Thanks, you are right, it says HQ, anyway i was comparing it to my brothers ipad2 and his looked crystal clear on all settings and he could chose between standard, 720p and 1080p.

Is this update coming in June for 1080p playback on the Tab or output to the TV?
[Acer Iconia A500] hurrpancakes:
Acer said in Q2 of this year (May to August) for an update that will allow 1080p playback on both the Tab and when going to a TV.
[Acer Iconia A500] mr.r9:
Guys, After Google I/O I am starting to think that the update in June Acer is talking about is Honeycomb 3.1.

Ideas?
[Acer Iconia A500] rushless:
The gate is not Acer, but is Nvidia. Nvidia needs to farm out codec package support to Archos. Archos may screw up awful on their tablet specs, but they have GREAT codec support in their devices.

I still do not see much value in 1080p, since drains battery and takes up tons of space. Not to mention our tablet is "800p", so 1080p is overkill.

If referring to outputting to a 1080p display and perhaps as a media center, NOW I see the point.
[Acer Iconia A500] Maliacrete:
I have posted on another thread that I have tried playing back a 720p movie with huge lags. I think this should clear with the next update.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ajphoenix:
Ok i just bought a new Optimus one p500 today.

So I've just started checking it out.. but one thing i noticed was that the default android twitter app doesnt allow me to log into my account.

Even though the Username/password were right, it keeps showing "Invalid Username/password" message..

i tried m.twitter.com from the native browser and that was able to log me in .. right now its just the android twitter app..

any1 else faced this problem?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shotgun32:
Nope :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ajphoenix:

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ajphoenix:

Did you try updating twitter app? I've got it once, and I just had to update it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] stormpack:
Update your twitter app using the market :)

It will work then.

EDIT: Got ninja'd on my first post... sigh... :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ajphoenix:
ah.kk .. thanks..

lol. seems there's a lot of stuff for me to learn here.. :D

Oh, and should i really root my phone.. Right now its got 2.2.1..

so should I root and install a custom ROM now itself, or use the phone for a week or more, and then decide?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] stormpack:
Well, i rooted and installed a custom rom on my phone three days after purchasing it... But I had done my "homework" a few days before, learning a bit more about Android.

Take your time and do what you want, but I do believe you won't regret rooting your phone :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] rapharias:
Hahaha we posted right at the same time lol.

Regarding root, I'd say exactly as you. Take a little time and read about custom recovery, root, roms, 2.2, gingerbread, froyo etc. See development section for such knowledge. Everything is there!

Has anyone purchased or researched this yet?

I know that a regular HDMI 25' cable is about $15

http://www.abacus24-7.com/singleProduct.aspx?pid=14762&gclid=CKPRhcrQ4KgCFQzNKgodR39sCQ

But i need the mini HDMI to HDMI

I see ton's of them that are 6', but i want to use in my living room..

Anyone?
[Xoom Accessories] HuckFinn:
Monoprice has a 15' cable for $5.24.

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10242&cs_id=1024201&p_id=7649&seq=1&format=2

This is about as long as I have found. You may have to use an extension cable for anything beyond 15'.

A 25' extension cable on Monoprice is $20.

[Xoom Accessories] bignadad:
Have you tested it?
[Xoom Accessories] HDCS:
Use a standard HDMI long cable and a mini to standard HDMI adapter. Amazon and pretty much everyone else seems to carry the adapters for reasonable prices.
[Xoom Accessories] bignadad:
Duh! That's a good idea :)

Don't know why i didn't think about adapter
[Xoom Accessories] slack04:
Another option (if you got the 3.1 update...) is to use a bluetooth mouse. I do that when I hook my laptop up to the TV. a 15' cable across the living room will definitely aggravate the wife...
[Xoom Accessories] HDCS:
One other thought. Is the HDMI out on the Xoom micro or mini? Check on that before buying anything.
[Xoom Accessories] patass:
micro. I have the 10 foot cable from Monoprice and it works fine
[Xoom Accessories] HuckFinn:
I have the 15' cable from Monoprice and it works fine.

I would be leary of adapters on the Xoom side as that will put added strain on the XOOM connector.

I like the idea of the BT mouse/keyboard. That will solve needing a long HDMI cable. Now I need to buy a short cable as well - gee thanks! :D
[Xoom Accessories] 2ksilverbullet:
I bought this 50' cable:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QKKAPE

and this adapter:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00481C4RO

Both work great.
[Xoom Accessories] HuckFinn:
I may have to pick up that adapter. Since it has a short cable that will reduce any strain on the Xoom connector.

Thanks!

On second thought, $13 for that adapter is a bit too much. Monoprice has it for $3.

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10419&cs_id=1041913&p_id=7603&seq=1&format=2

I'm not trying to push Monoprice, but they do have really good prices and everything I have ordered has worked great and shown up very quickly.
[Xoom Accessories] PaulG1488:
i have the 15' from monoproce and it worls great payed only about 10 bucks
[Xoom Accessories] KNK:
I have the 15ft hdmi as well works great also got 2 15ft micro usb. Didn't spend that much at all compared to other shops.

Monoprice is awesome for cables.

Awesome job Whitehawkx!

Flashed with cwm and running fine. I like this version of tw much better. It's less Iphoney--It doesn't have those colored boxes behind the app icons in the app drawer. It also seems to be pretty snappy.

I will probably use this for my main launcher which I am surprised to say about a version of TW...lol. Great job on this!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Download to sdcard and then boot into cwm and look for install zip from sdcard, not the flash update.zip option. U will see your sdcard file layout find the file u downloaded and install. Hope this helps. Also when u reboot hit home and go to preferences and uncheck Landscape. It was causing force close on me everytime.
