Okay thank you for that. I noticed you were American and therefore thought you meant an American release date.
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
I suppose once HTC release software to unlock the bootloader of the international version, developers here would figure out how to do it on the US version. Afterall the hardwares are mostly the same, the time gap that HTC stated probably has to do with their dealings with the carriers.

I downloadad a .jpg file from Dropbox, but can't find it. I'm using Astro to search. Help, please.

ooorah
[Acer Iconia A500] Aaron Camp:
it defaults to the dropbox folder on the root of the internal storage.

if the jpg was in a subfolder on your dropbox account, it will be in that subfolder.
[Acer Iconia A500] bahurd:
In most cases you can't open a file from the dropbox folder by using a file explorer.

Open the Dropbox app and navigate to the folder you saved it to in Dropbox. Select the file (long press) and it will give you the options.

You can use another app (Dropsync) to synchronize your dropboxfiles with your tablet.

A little confusing because Dropbox doesn't actually 'store' your files on each device (only metadata or something like that) unless you tell it to 'download' the file.

Hope this helps.

I'm running infused 1.5.2 + loopy addon + latest infusion kernal.

For some odd reason, ADW doesn't let me long press on icons, the screen or widgets. I can't move anything or drag anything new to the home screens. The widget/shortcuts menu doesn't come up either. Other than that everything else seems fine. I've cleared data(in settings>apps>manage apps>) twice and reinstalled it twice, but same thing, and even after the data clears, it still holds on to my settings. Like I tinted the dock, and it's still tinted. Any ideas?

[Galaxy S II General] derklerus:
Hello everyone!

I have a strange problem with the display of my SGS II. After flashing XXKG1 the screen shows strange green dots/lines when displaying a grey image/background such as the notifications background. It only happens with grey backgrounds. I have already checked other colors with *#0*#. I dont know if it is a dead pixel issue and I believe I did not encounter this problem with 2.3.3. Could it be a rom-related issue? Maybe some problem with the GPU drivers?
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Well could be the rom as its only a test release . But not reported as a problem .

I would reflash and see what happens .

[Galaxy S II General] gaui:
Is there any Samsung firmware RSS feed people can register to, to get news about new official Samsung firmware for the SGSII? I hate plugging my phone in every night to check with Kies whether the official 2.3.4 is available. :D
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Twitter and all the rest but that wont say that their is a firmware for your phone only that version XXXX has been released by Samsung .

Samfirmware .com probably the most reliable source they have Twitter account .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kblavkalash:
Hi guys

I want to buy a new smartphone and I am thinking about samsung galaxy s i9000 because it's obviously very good phone and currently the price is very reasonable. But this phone has only 512 ram and I want for example at the same time to use web browser, skype, listen music, etc. I mean is all that ok for a phone or it will start lagging a lot? Maybe it's not worth buying it cause it's already 1 year old and phones with 2x more ram and dual core cpus comming, so maybe it's worth waiting for them to get cheaper? Or it's still very good investment for a price? (SGS2 costs like 1.7x more so too much for me) :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] duffmannr3:
Have a look at that:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1173923

I still would recommend it, especially because it's now about 300€ and there are only a few little bugs left, which i hope will be fixed with the next update (like browser-scrolling etc.). Also battery life is very good since JVO i think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Johnny55555555:
Today I was doing a side by side comparison on my 9000 / 2.3.4 with my cousins 9003 / 2.3.3

Edit SGS from 3 / 2.3.4

vs

SGS2 from craphonewhorehouse / 2.3.3

the 9003 is physically bigger, and has a physically bigger screen, and it has a dual core cpu...... but......

speaking *personally* the 9003 is a little too big, in fact the 9000 is already pushing the boundaries on size for a "phone"

the bigger screen in nice, but I know someone who uses a 7" galaxy tab as a phone, for phone / mms / email the 9000 screen is as big as I want.

dual core? well if I played games I might need it, but the single core on my 9000 does everything *I* ask it to, including playing video seamlessly.

=========================================

sweet **** all in it so far, all personal preferences...

the REAL difference is the 9000 is mature, incredibly well known, with an incredible set of resources and knowledge.

the REAL difference is not being the latest and greatest any more, the 9000 is cheaper, significantly cheaper.

I was offered a straight swap today 9000 <> 9003, I turned it down.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] drasifriaz:
Yes right, of course you would
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kblavkalash:
Thanks for opinions.

Well the main thing for me I think is RAM. Is SGS not slow when having several programs running (skype, web browser, music..)?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Atomix86:
I only recently got an i9000 and found it really doesn't matter about its age, it performs incredibly well, and has the advantage of having a massive load of excellent custom roms to use.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] krazykat:
Besides the the missing dual core, I think i9000 is gold for it's value. Which I might add, is running current performance standard for all phones since dual core is considered high end atm.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dadyal:
I9003 don't have dual core cpu it's 1GHz Cortex A8 CPU, PowerVR SGX530 GPU, TI OMAP 3630 chipset

you can buy i9000 for now as it's still one of the fastest phones and next year you will be able to buy i9100 at less once galaxy s 3 comes
[Galaxy S I9000 General] psyren:
I'd go for a newer phone than the Galaxy S if it had a greater variety of mods/kernels. I don't think that's going to happen for a while =P

The Galaxy S II looks promising, though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] clandestino123:
The SGS has a good balance between hardware specs and software / os requirements.

The SGS 2 doesn't have this balance. At this time, 99% of the users simply don't use that extra hardware capacity.

In my view, the decision to purchase an SGS2 vs an SGS really boils down to the screen and the camera. If you want the Full HD video recording, improved camera and better screen and you think the price premium warrants it - then go for SGS2.

But if you think the SGS is more than satisfactory in these areas, then SGS it is.

People talk about the improved hardware specs of the SGS2... but until that translates into real-life improvements "my SGS2 can do this...and your SGS can't" then we simply won't see people rushing out to buy them.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] progene81:
Unless u got cash to burn or always wanted to have the latest gadget. If not, I would say SGS is still worth to buy.. With many custom rom.. I would say it's one of the stable android phone around.. Of cos, not the latest in terms of hardware (dual core)..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pkhbdb:
You should definitively go for the SGS.

I got mine 2 months ago, and I'm sure I'm going to still like my phone in 2 or 3 years, if it makes it through ;)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] DarkSorcerer:
I'm recently bought an SGS, because I had a good deal with it from an operator here in my country. It's a really good phone.

The only thing I'm concerned is if a big bunch of the developers change from SGS to SGS II, and that could be bad for new ROM's, MOD's, etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Johnny55555555:
Sorry, it IS an SGS2, my original error / typo was calling it a 900x instead of what it is, a 9100.

yesterday I put 2.3.4 on it for my cousin and CFroot, it is indisputably and most definitely an SGS2, and I still would not swap it for my SGS
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nikhilc5:
I would personally suggest you to go for SGS2 coz samsung people kinda ignore their low priced models for teir higher priced & new ones... lJust like what they are doing with SGSL... So im pretty much sure, once the SGS2 sales picks up they'll completly igonre SGS....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] GoThere123:
This is make sense and i believe other vendor would do the same as technology keep growing fast. for a while i think SGS still great but maybe in 2-3 months, the developer will start to change to SGS2 or else.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vasumit:
SGS is still a very good buy and another option could be Motorola Atrix (Powerhouse)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Eiswuxe:
I got my SGS about a year ago and am still very satisfied. I admit, I was kind of disappointed when the SGS2 was announced short after since I wanted to have an up-to-date smartphone. But today's phones evolve so fast that its not possible to have "the newest model" for more than a year :D

I would still recommend the SGS if you don't want to spent too much money. Its a good phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] melorib:
I dont know what is the problem with Samsung stopping development of SGS, as far as I need it is already more than good enough, and android apps will still be developped and maintained... :rolleyes:

It has recently been re-reviewed in light of the newer phones at Techradar:

http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s-689293/review
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Coolgreek:
i would like to answer the fist answer:

How laggy is the phone with many apllications used?

The answer here is simple:

First of all the android os is not windows, it will use the available ram ONLY and not the internal sd (for more space), so in terms of multitasking once it gets to use all the available memory it will start "killing" older tasks to get the memory needed... Not too good if someone uses many heavy apps (games for example) and sees the older ones are one by one getting "exterminated":eek:. So the "laggy" is mostly a cpu factor, not a memory one...

More explanation about the ram : SGS has 512 mb ram, BUT only 334mb ram (up to 340mb according to kernel- without breaking something else of course) are available for the android OS and the applications (rest of the ram is reserved for graphics+video etc). In those 334 mb the phone has to fit in the Android OS and all the tasks, and consider the Android OS (especially ginerbread roms) is not a light os, it takes (reserves) much memory too!

Other than that the SGS still remains a good buy, as most users here agree too (of'course take in notice that this is the SGS forum on XDA, u should ask the same on SGS2 forum and you would get total different opinions i'm sure:p)!, Dual core phones are not (yet) much supported or needed, most of the games and apps run perfectly on SGS as well.

To my opinion the SGS is well worth buy for someone looking a good phone with good capabilities, the multitasking i think is it's weakest point, so if you only care about that you should get a phone with more ram...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Frostfree:
I have both phones, I got the SGS in July last year and was fortunate to get a free upgrade to an S2 earlier this year on a second line.

Performance - Firstly the performance difference is clear cut, it's only when you start using the S2 that you notice the lagging on the SGS, even one with all speed mods applied. It's one thing to have a quick play, but it's another matter entirely to live with both. The stock S2 needs no speed tweaks, it crushes the SGS as with most other phones (including some dual cores) performance wise.

Form factor - The S2 design has a much thinner rim so although the screen is a few inches larger, this does not translate to the overall size, and the S2's thin profile makes it less bulky overall. In a nutshell if you transition from the SGS to the S2 you won't complain about the size.

Cost - Although so far it seems I favour the S2, what I'm doing is challenging opinions here based on personal experience. The SGS IMO is still one of the best handsets around save for the S2, HTC sensation and a couple more. Recently my SGS was lost and put in an insurance claim to have it replaced, I was offered the SGS or to add £100 to get an S2. Personally I didn't feel it was worth paying that much more for the S2 (maybe bcos I have one already) so I accepted a replacement SGS which incidentally was delivered today.

If you can afford around £320, get the S2 (from the avforums classifieds), but if your budget is less get the SGS for around £200. You can put your worries about the 512MB memory aside, it doesn't affect it's performance, rather it's the RFS file system used by Samsung that holds the phone back, but even that can be fixed, although you may find yourself glancing enviously at S2 owners in the near future.

Phone is super slow and the sound is messed up. I want to switch the phone back to original state with WM installed.

I cannot seem to get the phone back in tri color mode.

Power + Volume brings aMAGLDR V1.13

What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way to force the phone in tri color boot mode?

Thanks,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tobiascrystal:
make sure phone is off then only press volume - button and then press power button.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] htccraze:
it sounds like your waiting to long to hold the vol down and power button. you need to do that before the splash screen pops up, if the splash screen shows up its already to late. pull the battery out & then place it back in..hold power for just a split second and then press vol down. im not sure why but this seems to boot a little quicker

for me

doing it this way then holding power and vol down at the same time from the start.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] baboog:
Still no luck.

Remove the battery.

Press and hold "Vol down" key

Press Power for 2 sec.

Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.

Press and hold "Vol down" key

Press Power for 4 sec.

Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.

Press and hold "Vol down" key

Press Power for 8 sec.

Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.

Phone powers up.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] icke:
Guy....just HOLD VolDown and press SHORT power button.;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tobiascrystal:
Are you sure your volume down button works?

It doesn't matter if you short press or long press the power button it works either way the main thing is the phone has to be completely off before first pressing and holding the volume down button and while it is still down press the power button and keep the volume down pressed until bootloader screen appears.

You can also try, with the phone off or on, press the volume down button and then press something into the reset button under the battery door quickly and keep holding the volume down button.

If none of these work let me know exactly what happens after you try these. Where does it go, does it start Android?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] baboog:
It looks like the problem is the volume button.

I let the phone boot normally.

I noticed if I press the volume up button then the animation for vluome come up on the screen but if I press the volume down button animation does not appear.

Therefore, when I hold the volume down and press reset button, phone boots normally. I guess I am out of luck?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tobiascrystal:
I am not sure how to bypass this problem but there have been others with your same problem search the other general forums for volume down button broken or something like that and I am sure there is some way to remap your buttons
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rauschkugl:
I don't think that you can remap it so it works on that early time on bootup.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shankar10:
Try to hold down both UP + DOWN vol and then press POWER. Keep on holding it until you see the TRI color screen. This is a hard reset method, hope this works.

Just curious what ROM you currently running on the phone?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
when in magldr can you scroll down? if so then the volume down works. magldr wont let you charge the phone in an off state so if you can scroll down. shut off phone or pull battery and wait like 15 seconds, than hold down the volume button than plug the phone in and you should be in tri-color screen if not than you need a new phone. hope this helps a little.:)
