[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadraja:
Hello people!

I'm having a lot of difficulties trying to make my Galaxy S surfing on the net correctly... No matter what I do, I get 99% of the time this error message: "Web page not available". Sometimes it works, but very rarely. I'm using my home wifi connexion, and I tried every single browser I have: stock browser, Dolphin, xScope... only Opera Mini is working and loading pages normally.

I tried to load pages on MIUI, then on Simplicity, S.U.R.F.A.C.E. then Hybrid... nothing changes, still not able to load pages. I did a clean flashing of a stock JVQ with repartition and I finished with a hard reset after that... still nothing! One thing is that I'm able to load my router's configuration page (at 192.168.1.1). But I simply cannot connect to internet pages like Google, Facebook, Youtube, XDA etc...

I tried other devices on the same router and it's working fine: an iPhone, a Nokia phone, a laptop, a desktop. I tried another router, but nothing...

:confused:

I have had the same problem, until I have updated my firmware

If you can't right now use Opera mini or Firefox portable. They use their own browser base, and should work fine
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBigX:
On normal data (3G) you can surf on these websites?

Whats about apps?

If you cannot connect through apps do the following:

Go to the setuppage of your router.

Type in your password and login.

Look for the WLAN settings.

Go to devices and look, if your device is in that list.

If yes:

Did you maybe block port 80 for your device?

If not:

Did you typed in the correct password?

Does your router accept new devices? (WLAN extended settings)

Report back :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phoebusnz:
I had a very similar problem where I could only load in sites in opera mini (i assumed it must be something to do with opera mini rerooting traffic through their servers or something) but skyfire, dolphin, stock, opera mobile all would not work. Apps all worked fine like whatsapp, viber, and so on. This happened after i accidentally used the sim toolkit on my phone and it sent "browser settings".

For me deleting and redoing my APN settings fixed it but that would only work if your problem was on 3g. Worth a try anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadraja:
Thanks for your quick answers :)

That's what I'm actually doing: I'm using Opera Mini. But it's not as good as other browsers such as Dolphin. I can do a firmware update, or downgrade even, if it is a firmware related issue. I'm actually on JVR.

We still do not have 3G in my country. :p

Other apps are working fine, they can connect and download data, not everytime but much more than browsers. For example, market would not immediatly download new apps, it takes sometimes 2 or 3 tries. Anyway, I think they're working fine.

I checked my router's configuration to see if port 80 was blocked for my Galaxy S, but it's not. Actually I set it on DMZ mode to see if it will work, but no result.

And I couldn't find something to allow new devices on my router. But I guess it's not a problem since anything I tried to connect to it before worked fine.

Anyway, thank you for your help :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadraja:
I tried to connect on another router, from another place, and it worked. I installed a DD-WRT firmware on the router on which I wasn't able to connect but nothing changed... could it be the router hardware itself? The strange thing is that everything else is working on it (iPhone, laptop, desktop, other phones...).

How did you keep s-off? I've done the ota update to 2.3.4 with a perm rooted g2. when i get the update, I get s-on. I used visionary r14 to perm root.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Just follow the guide to rooting 2.3.4.

Question is why in the hell would you run the ota update on a rooted device when you can get exact same rom but with root access usually at minimum a month early?

Hey everyone

i've been compiling my own .apk's for my own personal use with LauncherPro today, using icon packs i've found throughout the XDA Forums

I've had some issues trying to figure out what the correct way to go about naming the files for the Dialer and the Contacts icon

They both pretty much go to the same app, just a different tab within that app.

IF someone could provide me with the proper filename or even just the activity name, or a method of finding out which process / activity it is that i need for the different icons, especially for the Dialer icon and the Contacts icon, that would be great!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hurlee555:
So I'm not sure what part of CM7 is not working for me, but I'm definately not happy. Three main reasons are:

ADW Force closing

Choppy scrolling

Poor signal/3g 4g toggling

I'm running MR2 and the kernal that came with the ROM in ROM Manager. I tried ADW EX and it does the same thing.

Is there anything I can do to improve this? I'm looking for a daily driver that is smooth, quick, and no force closing! I like Sense, but not the bloat. I would sacrifice performance for battery life.

I've seen some vids on UberBamf and it looks great! But I've also seen some good vids on CM7, it just does not work well on my phone. What are some suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
If you installed it through ROM Manager, I'd recommend not doing that. Also, format /system. That's not done in a standard wipe.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigd5783:
you must be doing something wrong. I have been running CM7 as a daily driver since 1.1 and it has never done me wrong. My suggestion to you would be to clear off your sd card or get a new one for the install, wipe EVERYTHING yes everything, format /system, install the newest radio and do a fresh install. After you do the install run a fix permissions from rom manager and reboot. I have never had any issues doing it this way.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
I would like to say that perhaps your issues are from using ROM Manager to install it and not flashing directly in recovery. Maybe or maybe not, but there are a lot of people that do have issues from using rom manager. Other issues would be not clearing out all data from your previous rom including the /system partition, dalvik cache, normal cache and /data and restoring system data from your previous rom.

I have none of your issues and have been using CM7 for nearly 2 months.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hurlee555:
So far I fixed permissions in Rom Manager and its been a whole different phone! I'll wait until tomorrow to see if anything else needs to be done.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deesto-xda:
I saw the 3G/4G issue in RC 1.5.2, but not in RC 1.6.1 (current, updated via ROM Manager). The remaining issues I'm seeing are low in-call volume, and Flash in-browser play-back.

I bought two otter box cases and decided to take one of the galaxy tab back and not put my tab in a case. Both cases are authentic and brand new in there boxes. Asking $35+ shipping if interested pm me

Sorry, but that thing is on Amazon new for $21.49.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] mychaiel:
I found 3 of them on eBay for just $10...
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Fate0n3:
Thank you both for your replies, before posting in someones for sale thread you should read the comments about retailers you are talking about. The $20 case on amazon has several reviews of people saying it is not a legitimate OtterBox. I contacted them and was told it was not the latest otterbox revision which has the built in screen protector either and they completely ignored my question if it was a 100% legitimate case. As for eBay it speaks for it self when you look at most or message people on there product most people are complaining they are not true otterboxs and are coming just in a box with no retail box.

I am going to ask $30 for them just due to I am getting sick of looking at them.

i have a process running that says its called scribble... com.htc.mysketcher... anyone know what this is?

Judging from the name, I'd say it is likely to be an application or widget where you can scribble. Seeing how it is an HTC software, I'd say it is their Notes widget.

Thanks for your delightful information . now let me tell you how retarded you are:

1. i do not have a custom boot animation running

2. Upon first viewing your link to "delightful information" did you stop to think that maybe I wouldn't install this boot animation because it might not be the proper size for our screens?

3. if I had in fact installed this, don't you think I would have enough common sense to know what the process might be considering this would be the name of something I MYSELF had installed?

4. Try posting a useful comment instead of a smart**s one
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Scribble is an htc app used for two things. The first is its an app that works with htc's stylus enabled devices (e.g. The flyer and evo view) to draw or "sketch" directly onto the screen. The other thing, and why its on our phone, is it is the app that facilitates htc's built in screen capture feature.
[HTC Sensation] amorek13:
i can confirm screen capture, i took scribble out and bye bye screen capture
[HTC Sensation] mattdub1:
awesome, good info, thanks alot to the both of you!
[HTC Sensation] brndklng:
woah, calm down there. My post wasn't meant to sound like a "smart**s" one.

I just tried to help. Although, the lmgtfy might let you think that, i just added it for the giggles.

I truly apologize if my post offended you in any way.

I just wanted to show you, detailed as possible, how i got this (indeed delightful,

because information is always delightful :p) information.

You were the one who opened a thread with "blabla scribble blabla"

without mentioning your ROM that you're using

the date you first stumbled over this process

what applications you have may installed or other modifications/configurations you made to your device

what research you've done to get additional information

and finally:

not sharing your research results in your post

You gave SOME information as an answer to my post, but not in your

original post. Why not?

Would you've shared more detailed information on your problem

in your original post, i might have not came up with such a "smart**s" reply.

And i am the one you call retarded. Nice move.

As i understood

this forums, this place isn't meant for:

"I have a question xy, can someone give the answer?"

It's meant for:

"I have a question xy, i have done this and that to resolve it, but i still have some open points i want to clarify, can someone help?"

The difference is, that you SHARE the information you have, to PREVENT people come up with guesses (like i did).

Guesses will form up to rumors, rumors spread out, become an urban legend and

everyone will soon swear to god that he or she knows someone who had "xy" resolved by some urban legend... true story.

In addition, this place is not for:

"yo, the answer is bla"

it is for:

"yo, the answer is bla and i have this and that information to back up my claim, go and check up if this works for you too."

Instead of calling me "retarded" you could've simply stated in a proper manner,

that my given information is not useful at all, because of the resolution or something

else i could've easily checked myself but i did not, because i was in a hurry or whatever.

This would've improved my behaviour in this place, but now i am just frustrated

with some guy i don't even know just because i tried to contribute.

Sorry for using my crystal ball, it was foggy in there.

I guess i am back to reading this forums, instead of contributing to them.

[edit] fixed some of many typos ~.~
[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
I think you're really reaching here. In a prefect world that'd be great but this is the real world. There really was nothing wrong with the OP! I understood it just fine and was able to answer the question with no problem. I also think that anyone that took 2 seconds to read it should have understood as well. Also if there were a rule that you had to post links to back up every answer then I wouldn't have even posted the correct answer because I don't have time to track down links for simple questions that I know, I know the answer to.

Good idea.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolution3d:
I am new to the forum as a registered member. I have read through the forums and flashed ROMs/kernels from this forum a few times. I wanted to post this in the following thread:

...but I'm a noob and I don't have access yet. :(

After flashing this kernel I went to software updates, htc software updates, to make sure that automatic update was unchecked still and it force closes, then briefly shuts off my radio. Is this supposed to happen?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RulingCzar:
No its not. You'll probably be asked if you installed it on a fresh install or what method you used to install it. Did you cache and dalvik wipe too before install? My knowledge is still limited but I know the pain of not being able to post in the dev section until you have enough posts.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddyv:
Everyone keeps stating the vibrant has issues with battery on gingerbread...... if this is a driver issue, can't these be borrowed from a phone with the same/similar hardware but is on gingerbread? And why doesn't Samsung at least release the nessary drivers so the phone can be supported seeing as they don't seem to be willing to put gingerbread out for it......
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex530:
This has been answered a million times dude. First we dont even have a leak or anything for the vibrant, were using the 4g's leak which is different codes, different radio's etc. Blame T-Mobile for dropping support on this phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddyv:
My questions haven't been answered.... why can't we get the proper drivers from other phones that use the same chips?

There are numerous other galaxy s phones..... where all the same chips (other than the radio )will be the same! GPS, CPU, graphics etc. Are the same...... so why can't these items be ripped out of other Roms to make the vibrant 2.3 roms?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] explodingboy70:
Because no other phone is using the same driver/firmware combo. The closest things we have are the captivate and i9000 which both use different radios. Same is true of the vibrant 4g.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnowledgeBroker:
The captivate is very close to ours.. the issues ive seen with gingerbread seems to be more than the smal.hardware differences of radios and such, so if there is a more clear answer what the big problems really are, im curious.

since they just leaked the 2.3.4 for captivate I was hoping we would have a better Ginger coming.. or at least should be a good sign that ours(leaked Ginger) can't be far behind right?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] explodingboy70:
I'm not sure what exact answer you're looking for but the differences don't end at the radio.

The accelerometer on the captivate is turned 90° which would need to be fixed in the kernel.

The radio differences render the GPS useless without the same hack that we presently have.

The button layout is slightly different though an easy fix.

Using a captivate firmware is no different than using the i9000 firmware. Just because the phones look alike doesn't mean a thing. Once you start looking beyond the outer physical appearance you'll understand that the Vibrant is rather unique. Of course there are work arounds and hacks but nothing that we aren't presently doing. Without someone stepping up on a regular basis and compiling kernels that implement certain fixes or without a leak of our own nothing changes.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnowledgeBroker:
I guess I meant the problems the current roms have for many people. GPS is a given, never could get it working properly, but instability and atrocious battery life would make me think we were using a ported rom from a totally different phone.

I guess the thing I'm wondering, if there's been 2 Ginger leaks for captivate, then a vibrant source must be in the works and can't be far behind right?

It is amazing that you devs have managed to overcome all of the issues that you have, something the OP really needs to realize.. most thought it unlikely or impossible that ginger would be working as well as it is..
