I am extremely frustrated and need help.

After much trouble, to the best of my knowledge unrooted and relocked my device via oneclick to receive the OTA. I got the OTA and it installed no problem.

Now today I pay to rent a movie Google takes my money no problem I start to download Inception and I get a big 'banana you!' error 49.

What would cause this?

I started to look into it and I find out that this error is for folks with rooted devices. So immediately I get root checker from market and confirmed that I am not rooted.

Now I have been reading around and don't really see anything that would help me resolve the issue. I have adb set up and can manage to copy and paste commands pretty good but when I try to use fastboot commands nothing happens.

[HTC Inspire 4G] magnumforce2006:
So you can get audio feeds using this even on the lite version?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rpogorek:
It is my understanding that the free version allows for in-game stats; it is the paid version that includes live game audio. The MLB.com site describes that our phone is not yet included in the list of devices that supports live video.
[HTC Inspire 4G] magnumforce2006:
Now, do you need to be a subscriber to get the audio feeds, or do you just need the app?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rpogorek:
The paid app includes the audio. For $15, it's a pretty good deal. I've used it since it came out a couple seasons ago, and the audio is worth it for the price alone.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buntoo:
I found last week that some of the call & msg entries (6 months older) were missing from the Logs on SGS-i9000. Was very curious to find the reason. Lucky that I'd two backups of "logs.db" from dbdata/databases/com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider/

One backup was made last month and the latest was made last week. I examined both databases in SQLite Manager & found that the latest logs.db had only the latest 500 calls, 500 msgs entries. I somehow, compiled both backups & put the combined logs.db(containing all call/sms logs>500) back to the phone. But today i noticed in root explorer that the file size is changed again and there is no record of the very first entries in logs. :mad: Only latest 500 calls & 500 msgs.

So I want to know is there any method or tweak to increase this stupid limit of 500?

It should be unlimited as it says on the official specifications page. But it ain't! :rolleyes:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Regards,

buntoo

Hello guys.

So as the title says i have a problem with my samsung galaxy s. It works to SMS and call, but i can't check my email or even go on the internet. I have already checked the settings for internet as my operative tells me to have. So i buyed the phone from a random guy and it worked for the last 1 week but now sudden it is like this. My brother tells me that it could have something with the imei-number. He says that the guy probably fooled me and have register the imei number as blacklisted. But then i wonder why can i still SMS and call?

So my question is :

What could be wrong cant i go on the internet and check my email while i can SMS and call?

What can i do if the guy fooled me? Is it any way to solve the imei-number problem if the satilite have blacklisted it?

Please i really need help with this i feel really fooled :(

Any help is appreciated and sorry for my bad english.

Kind Regards

You might need to re input/input the APN's for your service provider. Go Settings>Wireless and Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names and press menu to add an APN. If there are no APN's there already then it's the problem and if there are some there they may be wrong. You'll have to google the settings for your provider.

[Captivate General] jmtheiss:
So this is slightly off-topic, but I think it ties in a little bit to a question/reaction that often comes up on the board.

I regularly see people posting a new thread with questions that have been asked before, and others become upset with them for posting something that has already been answered. This then leads to annoyance/anger on both sides, as the question-asker feels bad for not finding the answer (often after searching), and the question-answerer feels frustration because the forum has another new thread for something that they feel shouldn't have to be asked again.

I found this, which is the US Coast Guard's manual dealing with making decisions in stressful situations (it's a pdf). On page 11 of the document, it describes people trying to make decisions in stressful situations. It explains that an individual in a stressful situation where real danger is present (think back to the first time something went wrong on your phone....) will tend to say that there's not enough time to solve the problem, and that the person is not able to process information efficiently. It then says that the person will deny that the problem can be solved (by them).

Translation: The phone breaks (messes up, etc). The person sees that the very expensive device they own is not working right, and they begin to panic that it might not be able to be fixed. They know that XDA is an source for answers and help, and in the panicked state, post a question without thoroughly thinking through the action.

Ok, so why am I on a soapbox about this? Two reasons:

1. I don't know about anyone else here, but I can clearly remember times where I did something to my phone that I thought I had killed it. It was a real uphill struggle to stay calm and search diligently until I found what I was looking for. I would just like everyone to think back to their own experiences like this when replying to people who seem panicked.

2. To people who are panicking because something has gone wrong: try to relax. 99% of the time, whatever is wrong with the phone can be fixed, and you've come to the largest wealth of information available about your phone. Just take a little bit longer to do a little more searching before you hit the post button. And don't be afraid to use Google outside of XDA, or to search within the thread results.

And if I'm wrong, I'm sorry.

(For more reading about stress' effect on decision-making, see this. It's the US Army Survival Manual, Chapter 2).

i am a noob so i know why (at least in my case)

1. should have read TRusselo's new user guide on first visit to xda

2. sometimes i search and do not find then a member shows me a thread i didnt know about thus confirming my inability to search successfully

3. some people post things in the wrong section (there is an off topic section, this is the captivate section and posting without searching is not exclusive to captivate users) this is a joke, not serious or meant to offend the |OP|

4. no knowledge of correct keywords to search (all the acronyms is like chinese to a noob) is there a xda dictionary for noobs?

5. the first thing we (noobs) do is panic. then we panic more. finally we relax...then panic again.

on behalf of all the noobs that post without searching we are sorry and as we learn more about the site we will improve upon our mistakes. please be patient with us, we appreciate your help and feel honored to be a part of this site.

[Captivate General] Rrryan2:
You're over complicating it. Half of the problem is that the native vBulletin search feature is wimpy and doesn't often return helpful results. And of course it consumes lot of server resources, it's down about as often as it isn't, and even when it is working you can only do it once every 30 seconds if you want to revise research terms or if you make a mistake. A Google cse custom search engine might go a long way toward helping out.

Chiding users for not using search is at least a little misplaced in my opinion. Comparisons to decision-making in critical life or death stressful situations are at least a little off-base.
[Captivate General] kevalin:
I agree with both views. I have yet to meet a v-bulletin site whose search function was worth a tinker's damn... and a number of the folks who voted "stupid" or "lazy" when it comes to someone posting a repeat question seem to forget that this is a very large forum, with tens of thousands of posts. Sometimes, finding the one post or series of posts that can be of use when you think you've just killed your $199 to $500 phone can be a bit tough.

Also, even when it's not a subject I have a vested interest in finding the answer to, I sometimes appreciate the repeat of a question that has already been asked because often someone (whose ego isn't so invested somehow proving their worth by being "right") will ever-so-kindly skip the lectures and point out threads I had no idea existed--and which I can then bookmark for later reference.

I've learned some very cool things about the care and feeding of my Captivate as a result (to say nothing of gaining more general information on a number of devices), so I'm not overly inclined to squawk when someone asks a question that's been asked before.

With respect, I visit this section for my phone, the Inspire, multiple times per day, and having to wade through people fawning over a samsung phone, after the load of happy horse **** that company gave out to captivate owners, is not something that I enjoy.

For me, Samsung started going downhill in 07-08 after they released the m300 on Sprint. I had a t309 and t619 before that,.which were actually pretty decent phones. The last Samsung I used was the a777. fine for the first year and a half. now I had to frankenstein my wife's and my old one cuz her charging port wouldn't allow it to charge, and now it won't last as long as my Inspire. I have read every reason these guys dislike em. By far their biggest mistake was letting their phones go a full year before they even decided to THINK about updating ANY Galaxy S phone. Dumbest business decision they could've made. And don't get any of us started on the gps issue across the whole galaxy line. I admit the gsII is pretty slick hardware, but after all those incidents, do think a lot of those former owners of any o.g.gs are gonna give Samsung a second.chance? Don't think so.

It has some things going for it over the Captivate and Inspire. Improved screen (SAMOLED Plus), better 8M camera, ffc, true HSPA+, and better GPS and slightly more memory than the Captivate, but it's not quite enough for me to jump. If it had a dual core CPU or the new TouchWiz 4 on Gingerbread I would sell my Inspire, but it doesn't. Plus development is off to a slow start over there. Meanwhile, we have AOSP, Gingerbread Sense, Sense 3.0 ports, CM7, MIUI, etc, etc.
