[Milestone 2 General] jackymacwacky:
hi, i have a milestone 2 HK version. The phone would not turn on no matter what i do (camera + volume ^; x + power) tried all that but still no hope. The screen flashes when I hold the camera + volume ^ + power but it goes off in about 5 secs. And when i plug the phone to a wall charger, the screen will flash on and off during the whole charge.

I have also tried RSD but since the computer cannot recognize the device was plugged in i cannot do anything about it. i did find the drivers for the phone but still no hope.

please help, i am really lost.
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
Connect it to the original wall charger... and keep it that way for a few hours.

I had the same problem long time ago, the battery was drained but somehow it took ages before it really started charging again.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukas1353:
Hi,

Because of my poor English, I will briefly present my problem.

Yesterday, i have made hard reset of my Xperia X1. After this move, my phone's keyboard and all other buttons aren't working. Even my screen won't turn around when I slide up my phone. "OK, it will be good after soft upgrade" - that's what I thought. But how can i do this if i have to:

"Hold the volume down button and turn the device on again, still holding both buttons until the 4-color screen shows up."

During my keyboard issue? When I'm pressing the "volume down button" my phone is not reacting.

Thanks for help, and please understand my English level.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Hello, coming from the EVO, and now the awesome Nexus-S 4G, I am used to the stock Visual Voicemail that Sprint provides on the EVO's, and with the Nexus I just setup Google Voice. Some issues and questions please.

- My texts are going to the Voice app, not GO SMS anymore ? I only want texts using the GO app, not Google Voice.

- It seems I did use Google Voice like a year ago, and I have a boatload of message popping up from last year, how do I delete all these old voice mail messages ?

- Is there a way for the little Voice app icon, to display a # next to it of unread messages ? Like if I miss a text message it will show a little number 1 at the top corner of the app icon of how many missed texts I have, can the voice icon show that too ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
UPDATE;

I logged into my Google account on my computer, found the settings options, but some things still seem strange ?

My text messages are still going to Google Voice, and not even showing up in my GO SMS text app at all, or even the stock Android messaging, they only going to Google voice ? I did log into my gmail account on my computer and disabled texts, but it didn't seem to take ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4redstars:
do you even want the messages to come through Google Voice? If not you can remove all of it and just use GV as Voicemail like Visual Voicemail...

If you just want to use GV as voice mail you have to log into your GV account through the web, Go into the phones setting and turn off the SPrint GV integration. Go into the app on the phone and delete the app data. Update the app in the market and then you will be able to "Skip" the GV Sprint integration and use it only for Voicemail.

I probably won't get back to this post until tomorrow so hopefully someone else can guide you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
Yes I want Google Voice as just a visual voice mail like i had with my EVO, I don't want Google Voice used for anything else besides that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amosher13:
2 ways to do this, i've done it many times, lol.

1.) open gvoice settings in the browser from a computer and click deactivate google voice on this phone. You should then see the link change to "activate google voice on this phone." you will also see below it: deactivate google voicemail on this phone, that tells you that voicemail is still on. I think you want both of hte text message boxes unchecked as well. save it, that should do it. this is how i'm setup, i only use it like VVM.

2.) clear data on the google voice app on the phone. launch the app. when you get to the activation part, hit the SKIP button, basically it sets you up without using the extended gvoice features, select "do not use google voice to make any calls." finish the setup wizard, should be good from there.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanRyb:
Hi everyone!

I'm new to this phone so I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but what is the "Video Call" option in the Contacts?

I've successfully had video chats through Google Talk (2.3.4) but when I try to call someone with a Nexus S using the Video Call option in their contacts, it makes a voice call. This friend's Google Talk/Gmail address are added to their contact in my phone.

So...what is this Video Call option supposed to do? It's not only for video calls between Galaxy S II's, is it??

If it matters I'm in the US, with the phone on AT&T's network.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemasu:
Video call is supposed to make a 'video call' to any device that supports it, I've done it successfully with a different phone, haven't tried with my sgs2 yet, it's hard to find people that have front cameras and support video calls (eg. not iPhones, even though they have a front camera), also it's usually pretty expensive.

AT&T might have it disabled if it didn't work for you.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admiral_k:
Hi Guys,

just got my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (PT7500 / 16GB / 3G) yesterday.

Great Tab so far!

But still i recognize one downturn:

When compared to an iPad2, the screen response in drawing/sketching apps is less then satisfactory. I'd even go so far to deem this unusuable - no matter whether is use a capacitive stylus or my finger.

The touchscreen simply lags about 5mm / 1 sec. in response time.

Anyone else experienced this?

Is this by design? HW fault? SW fault?

Basically, the 10.1 is by this nearly unusuable as sketchpad - which is one of my major use cases here.

Maybe someone has experienced something similar?

Thanks very much for any response on this!

Best regards,

Klaas.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admiral_k:
Hi Guys,

just to add to this:

I have made some comparisons again on this issue and found that the Galaxy Tab Touchscreen is seriously "lagging behind" when drawing on it.

When using an iPad drawing App (Sketchpad), the response to the touch is instantenous, on the Galaxy Tab the lines drag behind the finger.

Please see attached two comparison drawings:

The Sketch Pad Document is from an iPad 2

The 1.jpg is done with Big Fat Canvas on the Galaxy Tab 10.1

Both are made with the same capacitive pencil and written in the same speed.

Interestingly enough: When i draw VERY slowly, the result on the Galaxy Tab is as good as on the iPad.

So it seems to be a software problem of the Samsung Touchscreen driver being not very well written. Anyone can confirm that?

Furthermore, i did some more quick comparisons of Android tablets in our local electronics store and found that they're all very different:

- ASUS Transformer comes most closely to iPad

- Motorola XOOM behind

- ACER Iconia very sluggish

The Samsung ties in somewhere in the middle.

Interestingly enough i haven't found any discussion in the web on this topic...

Looking forward to any feedback anyone might be able to give on that!

Best regards,

Klaas.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] js931:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefanamlappi:
I am absolutely with you!!! Maybe everyone can program a new driver, but i think it have to do with the energy settings:-(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] admiral_k:
BTW: I reported this to Samsung Support and their answer was (what else?)

"Factory Reset, if no use, please send in for repair" :)

Also, Adobe Sketchbook brought the same result.

It seems that the Android multitasking gets in the way of a decent polling interval of the touchscreen - or so it seems. When more apps are running in background, the touchscreen gets more laggy...

I'm interested to see whether this improves in newer Android versions - as it's currently an Android Tab is not really usefull as sketchpad...

Best regards,

Klaas.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefanamlappi:
Use sgs touchscreen booster! In will help a little bit:-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4100142:
I also have the same issue. Using Sketchbook Pro, and even the included memo app, is completely unusable. Tried sga touchscreen booster as well and it made a little difference, but not enough to make me able to draw or write anything. The Asus Transformer is much better as a sketching thingy.

Has there been any development on this?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transceiver:
Hi guys, I'm the developer of a stylus-writing app (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.writepad) and after getting a lot of complaints from Galaxy tab users, decided to buy one and test it against my Asus Transformer. Here are some results. My stylus is the AYL: http://www.amazon.com/Newest-Genera...rranty/dp/B004HO86P6/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Side by side, with the Samsung on the left and Asus on the right. Using the free app Maple Paint.

You can see from the W's that there are way fewer touch events from the Samsung touch screen. THat's why the corners are rounded. I had to confirm, so I did a similar test on my own app. The Asus registered 1076 touch events, while the Samsung registered around 600.

When I look at the actual MotionEvents, some differences: Pressure from Asus is around 0.8, and 0.13 on the Samsung. "Size" and "tool" are 0 on the Asus, and non-zero on Samsung.

Also, when you rest your palm on the screen, Samsung's touchscreen becomes unresponsive (even more so). The Asus has no such problem.

Is this a hardware or firmware issue? Will 3.2 update help?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fixfox2:
I will try different software/firmware versions "side-by-side" when I get home to see if there's any improvement with the newer updates.

Is the Asus you tested with running Honeycomb 3.2 ?

Edit:

Have you taken your app "writepad stylus" off the market?

I paid for it (some weeks ago) and can't find it any more on the market.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transceiver:
Yeah Asus on 3.2, Samsung on 3.1 (though that's probably not the issue). I just ran Software update on samsung and it's on the latest firmware.

Writepad Stylus is here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.writepad

Thanks to transceiver for that nice comparison and testing of the handwriting app. I bought the new Samsung 10.1 tab with one of the primary intentions to use it to take handwritten notes during meetings and work sessions.

The Samsung's screen responsiveness is a great dissapointment and propably the worse I have seen of the current top "name brand" tablets. It is extremely sluggish in comparison to the rest and handwriting on it is almost impossible unless you write very slowly. Very frustrating indeed.

Let's hope they take note of this issue and can fix it with a firmware upgrade.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atty79:

I had the same problem. I actually returned my galaxy tab just because of this. I loved it but the iPad2 was far more responsive with handwriting. I use my tablet to jot ideas down and annotate very often. The slow Samsung tab was not adequate.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStumbler:
I have the same sluggish drawing problem. It looks like the app mentioned in this thread will do the trick, although I'll need to root my tablet first. Before I jump off that cliff, I'm curious about a couple of points:

Is this problem present in all Galaxy Tab 10.1 models? Just a few versions? Is it a design issue or a manufacturing problem? If it's strictly a design issue, and if in fact the app above solves the problem, at least it seems to be firmware design issue (and not a hardware one).

What does Samsung have to say about this? If I take my tablet to the A/S center, would they fix it? Or even be able to fix it? I happen to have a center right across the street - but it's a bit of a hassle since I don't speak fluent Korean. But if necessary, I'll do it - I already went once and had a new screen installed, because of the oil slick problem (I was just 2 days past the 14 day window, otherwise I would have received a whole new tablet).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fever003:
I believe the problem is present in all galaxy tablet 10.1 models

Yes it is a design issue. They wont be able to fix it. Its not related to the hardware atall.

Ive tried out the Touchscreentune app, it solves the sluggish screen issue. But you might want to donate 5USD for the full version.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStumbler:
Thanks. Given that it seems widespread, is fixable in software, and renders the tablet useless for any drawing app, I'm surprised Samsung hasn't stepped up and solved this. Now that I know it is widespread, I'll ask around to some Korean friends and see if there are any rumors on this. I don't mind donating to get the app, but I am hesitant to root my tablet. Maybe that's what's necessary to solve this, short of changing to an iPad or some other tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RGardner:
Having owned many Samsung products - especially the Captivate GPS fiasco - it wouldn't surprise me at all if they continue to suggest it isn't an issue.

The app isn't the perfect solution. While it does help for writing, it makes the pad only marginally better for drawing. I have Sketch Book Mobile, and there is still an annoying lag between finger or stylus movement and something showing up on the screen.

My 2¢... :rolleyes:

I'd like to know what other parameters available to modify, and mess with them some to see if we get better response.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |seraph|:
Is there any development on this issue? I've tried the SGS Touchscreen Booster and it doesn't seem there's any diference. I would try the TouchScreenTune but I'm hesitant to root my tablet...
