[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mitchmoney:
To start off with not recognizing unknown sources, you have to go into settings>applications> unknown sources must be checked. That should let you download pictures from the web. For the music, did you drag and drop your music to the Music folder... And do you have Samsung kies for your computer that your plugging your tab into?

Edit: you should try restarting you tablet, I think that should fix the reading issue.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bluefire808:
I already had unknown sources checked. I have the windows 7 kies which downloaded and installed with no hiccups. I used the file transfer promps that it gives me when i plug my tab into my windows 7pc. I restarted several times:-(

Edit- it turns out the downloading of a picture was just a certain web site i was on. It now works. Still no dice onthe over 7gof music i downloaded though. Also on walpapers. I downloaded a 1280x800 picture and when i go to set it as my wallpaper it will only let me selepart of the middle of the picture with a box i have to use like a cookie cutter?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
My apologies if this has been asked before... I've spent some time searching both here and google, but I don't think I've found a thread that answers this question specifically.

First:

I've rooted (Using SuperOneClick) for the first time to use the "Battery Calibration" app (which works great by the way), but then started getting a little creative and removed a whole bunch of stock bloatware and other programs I don't use from my Bell I9000M.

Now, after using it for a couple of days, I noticed under WhatsApp settings under "About", when I hit the "Contact Us" button, it stated no Email App was installed (I removed the Gmail app, as I only use the built in Samsung Social Hub email). I didn't really notice if Gmail was the only selection in there to begin with, but it appeared weird to me.

So, while the phone was still rooted, I did a factory reset. After doing so, I noticed the phone was still rooted (I think - SuperUser was still there), and none of the Apps I originally removed were there.

Then, I thought I screwed up the Rom, so I used SpoofFW under root and manipulated the firmware version so Kies would allow me to redownload KC1. It did so, but after the ROM was installed, SuperUser was still there, but all apps were back.

I was under the impression that when you update your phone via Kies, it returns to full stock. Guess I was wrong.

So how do you bring it back to full stock, eliminating any traces of Root?

I've never installed anything beyond root... no kernal changes, new roms or anything else.. just SuperOneClick.

Can anyone help? Sorry about the wordy post.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
SuperOneClick should offer the possibility to unroot too. ;)

If not you'll have to flash an unrooted stock-FW (available at samfirmware.com). :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Thanks for the quick response..

It does offer the ability to unroot... is that the only thing required?

I'm asking as we all know, when we uninstall stuff in Windows, traces of the program are still hanging around.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Android is familiar with Linux, not Windows. ;)

If you unrot and uninstall all apps which require root nobidy can say if your phone was ever rooted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Thanks pal... appreciate everything.

So all I have to do is unroot and basically install KC1 from Kies or ODIN to restore the Apps I've deleted and I'm good to go.

Again, thanks for all your help. I'm by no means anywhere close to realizing the true power of what this phone can do, its great to have knowledgeable people such as yourself to help people like me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Thanks, but we all are here for helping others. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howareyour:

[Atrix 4G General] mrfahrenheit94:
So I went to update my apps, and the app "Qik for Atrix" (which obviously is an app only for the Atrix) had an update available. When I went to look at the list of changes, the first one there was "Support for Gingerbread". Idk if the people who work on Qik are in contact with Motorola etc. but I just thought it was exciting that it is coming soon. I mean the "accepted" timeframe is July, right? And i thought I heard around the forums that updates are released on Tuesdays only? If that is the case, then there are only four Tuesdays in July, so yay!
[Atrix 4G General] raydm:
only four Tuesday :-)
[Atrix 4G General] gnueliafnak:
if this is the case, should I even bother rooting and installing GingerBlur? I mean besides the greatness of root.
[Atrix 4G General] GoodFoot:
Why is that? Do the mobile phone companies abide by the same rules as for new music and video releases? ;)
[Atrix 4G General] jimmer411:
There is no point unless you want to stick with 2.2.2.
[Atrix 4G General] J-man67:
I am sure they are not in contact with Motorola, or know anything more then we do. Since they made an app for a specific phone, I am guessing the Dev owns one and keeps up with it on here just like us.
[Atrix 4G General] benem3000:
Checked for updates and I got upgrade to GB 4.5.47. Im on 2.3.4 so im gonna reflash sbf and try it :D
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
Qik compatibility for Gingerbread simply means changing the Camera driver used for the FFC, because Gingerbread uses a standard driver (across any Android device) for an FFC, while Froyo lacks that. As a result, any Android phone on Froyo with an FFC uses a custom-made driver by that manufacturer (Moto, HTC, etc), which is why the original Qik didn't work for the Atrix initially.

An update to Qik has no (read: ZERO) connection to any impending release of GB for the Atrix.

Hi,

I'm taking my fully unlocked, rooted USA T-Mobile G2 running CM7 to Bangalore next week. I'm wondering what sort of prepaid SIM I can get that will give me voice+data? Is there a compatible carrier in Karnataka for 3G or 4G data?

Thanks for any advice.

I wonder if anyone can share their experience of using SGS2 as satnav with any of third-party software, which does not depends on mobile connection.
[Galaxy S II General] escaflo:
I've used it as a SatNav with Sygic and Navigon. Both works extremely well for me including fast lock time and also fast rerouting when I use other route instead.

So far, I say it is better than TomTom on the iPhone I use to have though it tends to use a little bit more battery than iPhone. With a charger, it will still drain the battery but at a very slow pace.

Thanks a lot for the responses. Copilot offer looks interesting.

Is it ok to use a satnav app and listen to some music on teh phone simultaneously? What about answering calls while driving? Does it interrupt navigation?

[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
You can also use TeleNav for free on the SGS2 by following the instructions in this thread. It functions without cell towers which makes it better than Google Maps in certain situations. (Note: I didn't check international support)

[Galaxy S II General] 3waygeek:
I just used it for a 900-mile trip from Georgia to Iowa, using CoPilot Live 8, and it worked very well. For the money, CPL is the best navigation solution, at least in North America where the maps are pretty current. Google Navigation is pretty good too, although it's dependent on having a data connection to download maps, which can be an issue if you're driving in less-populated areas.

I downloaded the new CoPilot Premium USA package (CPL9) last night & used it on a short local trip this morning; the new version works at least as well as the old version.

As far as listening to music or handling phone calls while navigating, I didn't get a chance to test that on this trip. On previous trips, I've done both while navigating -- however, that was with CoPilot 8 on a WinMo phone. I suspect the phone's OS has a lot to do with this capability, and I haven't used Android long enough to know if it's up to the task; I suspect it will be, especially once the OS takes multi-cores into account.

Going to Cyprus in a month or so and was wondering about SatNav as I'm hiring a car while we're there...

I was going to buy a 'block' of international data roaming that you can buy when on hols for the times when needing Internet access...but are there any cheaper short-term alternatives I shoulkd be thinking of?

Co-Pilot or Google Maps....??

Edit: CoPilot nor GM not coming up with any guidance for Cyprus!! This suprises me with the amount of people that head over to these type of holiday destinations, they could really be missing out on some serious revenue.... :-(

Don't forget that Google Maps is going offline soon!

engadget.com/2011/06/08/google-maps-navigation-to-go-offline-this-summer-garmin-and-tom I CANNOT POST LINKS YET

Quote "Dutch tech site All About Phones claims that Google Maps Navigation will get a true offline mode later this summer. In December the Android app received an update that cached routes and the surrounding areas, but without a data connection you still couldn't enter a new destination. A source inside the Dutch telco industry said that Goog would removing the requirement for coverage -- an obvious next step for the nav tool, especially with Ovi Maps bringing its turn-by-turn prowess to WP7. The move is also bound to be another thorn in the side of standalone GPS makers like Garmin and TomTom. After all, it's tough to compete with free."
[Galaxy S II General] TA123:
Yeh, it coudl put off some people from buying satnav apps or devices. However, I think it is more about functionality and paid apps could provide some more worth paying for.

Wanted to take up this CoPilot offer yesterday evening but was put off by poor reviews. People were complaining about the new version being not as good as the previous, problems with regestering and downloading maps. Still probably buy it over the weekend.
[Galaxy S II General] michelhuy:
I have been using Sygic Aura for a while now, and the previous version since my Nokia 5800. The Aura version is a real eye-candy, super fast, 3D buildings, but the routing - at least in Brussels - can be a bit weird but it will get you there.

I installed Copilot Live Premium for Europe - the UI is not as nice as Sygic, but the routing seems more normal (for Brussels) - no better or worse than Google Navigation.

[Galaxy S II General] bcfaigg:
Hi must say that I am hoping that TomTom will come to Android. I use Co-Pilot and/or Google Navigation at the moment, and find that sometimes junctions get confusing, because the app doesn't zoom in sufficiently.

When I used to use TomTom on my old Windows Mobile Xperia X1, the program would zoom right in on junctions, making it easier to see where I need to go.

A few times on Co-Pilot/Google Navigation, I have got in a pickle on a Roundabout, meaning I have to around it twice to get the correct exit.

Does anyone else have this problem, and is anyone aware of a SatNav app that is as good as TomTom in this regard?

Cheers

TomTom's Corrinne Vigreux (MD) says a TomTom app for Android is coming soon.

HOWEVER she may be confusing it with Route66 which is coming for Android soon and is using TomTom maps (aka Tele-Atlas). As everyone knows - this is VERY far from the same thing. So lets hope she is not making such a crucial mistake.

Hi,

I think you may have screwed up your framework-res.apk

Try unzipping the ROM zip you downloaded.

Go to system>framework> and make a copy of your framework-res.apk

Then put it onto your phone and copy over the one you played with,and it might correct things.

I haven't seen that one; what's the average lifespan on it?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
I bought this. It's false advertising as u would already know. Battery monitor doesn't see it as 3500. It sees it as 2750 which is what the Verizon extended battery is. So think of it as a Verizon extended battery just cheaper. Only thing I dislike about it is that it doesn't fit with the HTC oem extended battery door cover thus not fitting with the Seido Extended Battery Case i got. The battery is more like a sharp square type. Even the back cover when you're holding the phone u feel the Sharp square edges. Kind of uncomfortable after a while compared to the stock extended battery cover. But overall its a decent battery. Just now lost 10% battery after 2.5 hours with 4G on. I use this battery when I'm at home and my Verizon 2750 extended battery with the Seido Extended battery case when I go out. Overall for the price, I say its worth it
[Thunderbolt Accessories] g00s3y:
There is no OEM 3500 one for the TB

OP: Really, $15 for an extended battery, do you truly think it's going to work well?

I have the official OEM 2750, running BAMF 3 i get a consistent 40-50 hours out of my phone.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
It works well for me. It may not have the 3500 it states but it does have 2750. I may not get the hours u get cuz I have everything synced to an hour or less but it still lasts me a full day so I'd say this is one of those rare occasions where the knock off battery is pretty good
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Bassdj427:
The best thing to do is go to Verizon and get the 2750 mAH. It has proved to have great battery life on a variety of ROMs.

I have big hands, so in my opinion, it fits my hands better.

Ended up getting the HTC OEM 2750 battery for 38 bucks with my verizon discount. Its going good so far getting 40 to 45 hours no complaints.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] g00s3y:
So paying for something and getting less than what is advertised is ok? If I were you I wouldn't "settle" and be happy with the battery. I could last a full day with a stock battery if I didn't stream music. You should test the battery to see how much it really has and then demand your money back.

I sync, weather/1 hour, facebook/30 mins, twitter/5 mins, gmail/push.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Well seeing how I ended up paying $18 for 2750 instead of 3500 I'm not complaining. $18 knock off over a $50 battery which end up working alike buddy. Frankly I don't care. it works fine n is cheaper and I get almost the same hours as I do with me OEM extended battery. So yes it might have been false advertised but it does work better than I expected. I knew it was actually gonna be 3500. Last me a full day so i don't care

I have both the official HTC extended battery and the 3500 $15 Chinese eBay one. The ebay one lasts exactly as long as the HTC one, and has for over a month now.
