I think Sprints 3g is just terrible and that's the problem.

It happens to me all the time as well.

I've learned to just always leave 4g on if I want consistent data.

Hopefully sprint can work on their 3g speeds.

The 4g is amazing though, usually faster than my wifi.

It is using the clear network though for wimax so it isn't really sprint.

I can only play videos over wifi. 3G tells me that connection to server is lost. Anyone getting that error. I unistalled youtube and reinstalled. WTH is going on here?

One stop shop very nice!!!!....
[Thunderbolt General] scubaskm:
Thanks for that. I am going to have my wife read this so she can understand more on what to do with her phone, since it is not rooted and still has all that bloatware.

My phone is rooted and I have been testing with 4gLTE off/on, and seriously gained 5 hours when 4gLTE was turned off.

17-18 Hours Almost made it to 19 hours - 4gLTE off - This is with moderate use call/text/IM and some gameplay.

13-14 Hours - 4gLTE on - This is the same as above.

Trying now to talk my wife into letting me root her phone, but alas it is her phone and her choice.

Also if you want to update there is a 4G/LTE app in the Marketplace for the toggle - just search in the Market - LTE - it will show up as a Red Lightning bolt in a grey Circle.

We have known since its recent announcement that T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide will be a mobile photographer's delight and now we get to see the camera UI in action on video. As a quick reminder, the carrier's upcoming Gingerbread smartphone is made by HTC and features Sense 3.0, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon processor, a 3.7-inch WVGA Super LCD display, HSPA+ connectivity on the AWS spectrum, and a trick 8 megapixel shooter. The f2.2 wide-angle lens is combined with a low-light capable sensor and a dual-LED flash, but it's the camera software that really shines. Like on the Sensation, you'll find support for 1080p HD video recording, but the myTouch 4G Slide adds multiple scenes, zero shutter lag technology, continuous autofocus, HDR stills capture, plus panorama and burst modes, along with a dedicated two-stage shutter key.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] icoman:
I'm very tempted to order this phone today. I noticed I do qualify for an upgade and a $50 mail in rebate from Tmobile bringing the phone to about $400 after tax and shipping. The T-Mo trade-in program offers me $60 for the 3G Slide I currently own but, their terms of service is really shoddy. I may just end up selling my 3G slide on ebay. I should get around $100 at least bringing the cost of the 4G slide to around $300 or less.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] samlot:
I was able to pre-order 1 this morning. $250 plus tax and of course the dreaded $18 upgrade fee and shipping..Total $313.27. There is of course the $50 mail in rebate which i will fill out soon as i get the phone. I can't wait for it to ship out. Estimated delivery 7/27.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] icoman:
Congrats. I just completed my order as well. It looks to have everything that I want and need from a phone. It's nice when manufacturers learn from mistakes and keep what they did right, ditch what they didn't, when making a new product.

It will be nice to have an android phone that replaces a quality point and shoot camera and MP3 player, has a hardware keyboard, and is one of the most powerful out there in terms of hardware.

It's a slightly smaller screen size than some phones but, having a real keyboard makes up for that when you are surfing the internet since your fingers aren't covering up the screen.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] poormanq45:
Does anyone have the rebate? I'm interested to see if you have to get a contract to qualify for it.

I was thinking of just paying the $5 a month for it on a month to month. This is cheaper then any of the contract plans monthly increase plus the initial $250

JIG might not help you in this case, since you have only BLACK screen... however this JIG can sometimes make miracle and bring your phone into Download mode...

The JIG was originaly developed for fixing bricked devices, so you could enter the download mode, secondary, it resets counter, which is great thing if you have been rooted and need warranty replacement... try to youtube galaxy jig and see some tutorials how it works - or if you have spare 301k resistor + microUSB cable which you can spare, you can make one for yourself, its very easy!

Using something like root explorer, go to System\media and look for the .ogg file that is the sound in question. When you find it, just rename the file (I usually just append .bak onto the filename so it's still there if I want it later.)

Active holder from Brodit should do the job, but it still isn't that secure. There is no additonal "limiter" from the left (or top if in landscape). Motorola has some excellent original holders, I wish something like that would exist for SE..

apk in zip is legit, testing browser now.

EDIT: Tested... here is the low and short. Slow loading browser with a horrible eye rending font. Reduces image quality too much for how slow it is loading pages. There are options to change the quality, but it does not improve much. Offers no additional functionality so far compared to say Dolphin or Opera. Do no really see a compelling reason to even keep it on my phone, there are better options for choice in browsers.

Looking for an apk that will do this for me as z4root and gingerbreak won't work.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ukdtweak:
If you want root, why don't you flash a custom kernel, then boot into recovery and you will find an option for root built in, most will even install superuser for you too, with one click.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr.seddon:
Tried using rom manager, 1 click speedmod but cant unless the phone is rooted
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ukdtweak:
You need to look at the threads in Dev section for the likes of speedmod or Galaxian Kernels, you download the kernal and Odin, connect the phone in download mode and then flash the kernal as PDA (i think), then reboot your phone, reboot again into recovery and you will have CWM built in with root options, no need for rom manager...

Just make sure you pick the right Kernel for your current rom!!!

Yes but the point is i want to know if its possible via an apk . I know how to flash

[Galaxy S I9000 General] inkyadrian:
Gingerbread

I know of no apk.

Unfortunately the first root has to be done via Odin. All other rooted roms can be done via clockwork mod. Rom manager screws up when using it from desktop. 2 roms come into my thoughts: Cognition and Insanity. I downloaded a 3.3.4 rom, in the past and flashed via Odin and totally bricked my other phone. You can use Samfirmware.com for the latest secure rom and then find a rooted rom , of the same number and flash via Odiin.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] snapper.fishes:
Not a hell lot you can do about the download speed. I suspect it might have something to do with hotfile - I get incredibly ****ty speed from hotfile, but not from any other file sharing service.

There should be a few threads lying around in the general section about stock roms. Try downloading from there instead of ****ty hotfile.

Or u could use galnet miui im usin right now quite good :)

Press thanks if this helps :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ferparedes:
Before you flash anything you gotta make sure you have 2 backup plans. One is, of course, the nandroid backup. The other is having a stock firmware file you can flash with Odin in case everything goes to hell.

In my case, I have a JPU stock firmware stored on my home computer and on my work laptop. Every time I screw up so badly everything is FUBAR I go back to JPU and works like a charm.

Ah also, along with the JPU I have a CF-Root flashable file for JPU (just needs to be Froyo specific, not firmware release specific) so I can have root.

That's the only advice that hasn't been given to you already.

In reality, the Galaxy S is pretty hard to really brick. The bootloader may get corrupted but there's almost always a way out.

[General Questions and Answers] VD34N:
Hi everybody.

Already search the whole Web but didn't find any solution that could fit to me.

I'm using a Nokia N8 and i'm tired of this Symbian OS and its poor capabilities.

But i love the HDMI output, the USB OTG feature and the 12 mpx camera with Xenon flash. It's just the poor variety of customization and apps that makes me want to switch to Android.

I'm here to ask you if you know any device Android-based that has at least HDMI and USB OTG feature.

I found the Motorola XT720 which has HDMI and Xenon flash but its processor (720 mhz) makes the phone feel a bit laggy when using applications that involve lots of resource.

I also has a look at the Galaxy S II which has USB OTG but it doesn't have HDMI.

So do you know any device that fits my likes (HDMI and USB OTG)? I'm searching for any device that has Android on it, that it's ported (like the N900) or not, it doesn't mind.

Better if it has also a good processor so i can put some heavy applications to use while waiting at the hospital or something. :)

Thanks in advance, guys!
[General Questions and Answers] VD34N:
I've also seen the Nokia N9 specifications.

ARM Cortex-A8 OMAP3630 of 1 GHz with a GPU PowerVR SGX530.

It has almost same features (not sure about HDMI but sure USB OTG) on N8 but thinner.

But what it really convice me on waiting the release date and buy this device is that it has MeeGo!

As far as i can remember, the N900 had Maemo, which is the father of MeeGo, and the N900 could have been ported even to Android 2.3.

So the devices i have in mind are:

-Motorola Milestone XT720

-Samsung Galaxy S II

-Nokia N9

What do you think?
