Movie is washed out for me, like a HTC's screen. Dynamic looks good overall.
[Galaxy S II General] aqualeris:
Using Movie. Dynamic makes skin tones too unnatural. My phone lots of pictures of um, people. Movie for me, I don't mind the washed out effect actually. In fact I'm quite interested in making the screen a little less saturated, is there any way?
[Galaxy S II General] lrcquest:
Using the standard mode since screen protector is on. Dynamic is really rich, but battery consumption is more.

I can't update my gmail in the Market. It downloads completely and begins to install but fails to install. I get a popup saying "package file is not signed correctly"

All my other apps download and install without any issues. Does anyone know why I cannot update my gmail?

I have fixed permissions in CWM, wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache and wiped dalvik.

I have also used Odin to "start clean" using Whitehawkx KC1 and flashed a new ROM.

Any ideas on what is going on with my gmail update would be greatly appreciated. Gmail is a very important app for our phone.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
do you have a custom rom or custom gmail app? If so use titanium to back it up then rip it out. Reboot your phone and install official app from market.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jerry D:
Ya. I have custom gmail from Audiophile.. I didn't even think of that because my gmail was working fine.

Well atleast all my flashing and reflashing served a purpose. I had some gremlins move in last week. My phone would vibrate for no reason, freeze up, I'd hit the power button and nothing would happen ect once in a while. Now it is working Great again.

Thank you for your help. I will definitely do what you said.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
ya if you constantly flash roms sometimes its wise to factory reset if you have a issue with one app delete it though titanium and then reinstall it ...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyperx136:
I'm sorry if this question has been asked previously.

I've heard alot of negative feedback with the Touchwiz update, included lagginess and screen issue. Basically the cons > pro.

So is it worth it for the people who updated?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millemots:
Keep in mind that you will almost always hear more negatives than positives for any given topic you research. It's human nature, it seems, to loudly express displeasure and frustration. Not so true with contentment and happiness.

I took the TouchWiz update as soon as it was available. Same for the latest patch. I have no serious complaints about the GTab or TouchWiz. Rather than endlessly scour forums for guidance on whether out not I should patch/update, I just did it. In the mean time, I've been working up mind maps with Thinking Space, sketching with Sketchbook Pro, watching the first two seasons of "Heroes" with MoboPlayer, working on a new blog with the Wordpress app, writing short stories with QuickOffice HD. That's on top of using Gmail, K9, Google+, Google Music, GrooveIP, Words With Friends, Dropbox, Evernote, and a slew of other productivity, utility and entertainment apps.

In short, TouchWiz hasn't gotten in the way of my productivity at all. What are the cons of the update supposed to be?

Of course, YMMV.
[LG Optimus 2x] henrik_h83:
Hi!

I stopped using Windows recently, and have tried to find another way of changing the baseband on my phone. Is widows software the only option for doing this?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Seems like it at the moment, unless Smartflash works in WINE, which I doubt.
[LG Optimus 2x] henrik_h83:
No, wine doesn't work.

Is there no way of doing this without a computer then?
[LG Optimus 2x] babytux:
It seems there is not another way, I used to upgrade my bb by virtual machine.
[LG Optimus 2x] gasgasgas:
I do like that too but it's not the best solution because when you plug in a usb cable is the host machine that deals with it first and then the guest virtual machine manages it. This little detail made me unable to update my x10 mini,with this phone you have to push the back button while plugging in the usb. In that situation you plug the cable, the phone doesn't see any "flashing attempt" because the host machine (linux) doesn't have the flasher software running and so the phone reboots without updating. When the device is "passed" to the guest machine is already too late. As babytux said it can be done, but if you have problems in the procedure a "real" windows machine can be useful.
[LG Optimus 2x] thehero21:
no known linux sw at this time, sorry ...

i updated my BB to 20110725 with virtualbox (without hw virtualizing)-(64bit linux as host machine) without any problems (smartflash in winxp used only virtual modem(tty) for this job).

i'm thinking the lgos is a "real" open phone for all types of OS's, not to mention the super "last" flash fallback(nvflash).

hope, this is a little help for you ...
[LG Optimus 2x] lintz:
Unless there is a way to do it with Nvflash it might be impossible for now.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schauol1:
Hi there,

Sorry if asked already, but couldn't find something useful with search...

I'm not sure if it happened after a drop to the floor or after flashing a new ROM... but my screen suddenly doesn't use the whole space anymore. On the right side is an about 1mm thick black border. This was surely not there from the beginning. The screen is not "cut-off" there. I see the full UI... but it is somehow less wide than before.

It is like that on the Recovery-Screen, on the bootscreen and on the UI...

Tried it with a couple of ROM's (Sense, Pure Android and MIUI) and with different Kernels.

Anyone else having such an issue? Is there a practical solution to it?

Thanks in advance,

Oliver
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztedvvv:
I've got 1mm all round. Must be normal. I've never noticed before but now u mention it. Its obviously not the Roms. And it wont be from dropping. So must be normal =D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schauol1:
No, it wasn't there at first... and its only on one side... the left side doesn't have this gap.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:

[Trophy General] Mjollnir1983:
Hi,

I have a weird problem, if I leave the Trophy plugged into USB and power off, the fully charged phone will actually discharge itself through USB until flat.

As I often leave the phone plugged in and forget to disconnect, this is getting very annoying.

Is there a fix or a known issue? Anyone else experienced this?
[Trophy General] leftspeaker2000:
I have the same problem with my HD7 its rather annoying i had the phone plunged into the power point before work, nocked out the power and with in 30 min the phone had discharged half its battery. Its not really a problem just an annoyance sometimes.

Find a better ROM, it hasn't been updated in 3 or 4 months and their site isn't even up and running anymore. It's very outdated and will do nothing but continue to get even more outdated as better ROMs are released.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superket87:
Hi guys,

I would like to access some shared files with my SGS2 in my home network through wifi. So i first looked up for some information. I installed the ES File Explorer and configured a folder on my harddisk to be shared.

Once i opened ES File Explorer, i thried to add a new server. So i filled in my ip-address and my username and password from the computer. But ESFE wasn't able to connect to it.

So i went looking on the internet for some information, and what i learned from it was that it worked through a smb connection, but i don't have any clue how to let it work.

Could anyone explain me how to set up such an smb connection and what are the different steps so that i can access the shared files on my computer with my SGS2.

Thx for the help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beany1:
Hi, depends on what operating system you use on the computer.

If your running windows make sure you have file and print sharing enabled in networking, and a shared folder. Appart from that smb is running.

Make sure when you connect your connecting to the shared folder as some file managers wont connect to just the pc.

If your runnin mac os or linux itl take some config so youl have to look that up.

Hope that helps!

Ok i found the (provisional) solution for my problem.

It worked to connect when i turned of the AVG firewall, so probably i have to configure something into AVG.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beany1:
Yeah firewalls tend to like blocking smb. Somewhere you should be able to allow either port 445 or smb or file sharing in AVG not used it so i dont know where but it will be there! Glad you found a solution.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Digi.Gram:
Hi all,

I searched quite a lot, but seems to me not nearly enough. I've been using adb on my Windows 7 machine for a while now, but would like to have adb at work on my Ubuntu 11.04 machine where I am going to start some boring development.

I have installed the sdk and eclipse and and and (if it is important WHAT I installed more than this, I will elaborate)

lsusb returns

Bus 002 Device 009: ID 04e8:689e Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd

so I have set my

/etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

to reflect like this:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTRS{idVendor}=="04e8",ATTRS{idProduct}=="689e",SYMLINK+="android_adb",MODE="0666

I'm kinda hoping this is wrong and there is an easy fix that I can laugh about.

When I have the emulator running and my phone plugged in

$sudo adb devices

returns a blank line and something about an emulator, only emulator running yields no blank line and only phone plugged in yields a nice and quiet blank line.

I had this on Windows as well when I struggled with drivers, but the CD sorted it out. I read that the necessary drivers comes with the SDK, but I might be wrong.

I have tried different tutorials and different values for the idProduct and idVendor as some tutorials claim they should be kept constant and not vary per phone... I restarted adb each time I made a change with

$sudo adb kill-server; sudo adb start-server; sudo adb devices

I'm currently running FirstUA v1.2 if that changes anything.

If you need more info, don't hesitate to ask, I know it's easier to solve problems with the right info (coming from an IT helpdesk).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] CallMeVentus:
The SDK Drivers are not for Galaxy Ace , Google for the drivers , they should be easy to find :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Digi.Gram:
It seems that my problem begins with our Proxy server.... As the SDK manager and I had a quarrel about authentication, I downloaded some of the packages directly and forced the manger to use them instead of those on Google. With this, I accidentally downloaded an outdated adb, which had problems specifically with the Galaxy line of phones.... Downloading the correct package now, will see if it works better :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Digi.Gram:
Maybe I must just stop before I think of continuing :p I installed the newer r06 version, and my device is picked up, but now adb shell gives me this:

:~$ adb devices
List of devices attached

:~$ adb shell
sh: applet not found

Any ideas where to look for the applet? Maybe I must continue tomorrow, new day new ideas.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] russ18uk:
Do you have Debugging turned on? And is the device rooted with Busybox? I assume yes since you're running a custom ROM but double checking.

If you're having trouble, I'd either: a) run a VM with XP SP3; b) head to the Android Q&A board here.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Digi.Gram:
mmm, I never though of looking at that, since I figured they do say busybox is installed on this ROM, but thanx for nudging me into that direction, I found this post from ketut.kumajaya so I'm looking into that. Had some issues with not abling to get rw access, but my only problem there was a spelling error in the terminal.

I still get the error with the sh: applet not found, even after I tried the advice on that link. I tried installing all 3 versions shipped with BusyBox Installer on all 3 locations, still nothing. Just had an idea I'll try, if you invoke sh in linux you get a new shell, when I invoke sh I get the applet not found error. Maybe I should upgrade my sh or something. Worth a try

I am running a VM for the VB programming I do at work, but that doesn't have USB support (to much trouble to reinstall Virtual Box now just for USB support). Last night I tested on Windows 7 (first time since I started using this ROM) and it failed with the same error. I'm sure it's the sh that's broken or something. Will test on my wife's phone tonight (running the same ROM).

Thanx for your ideas so far. That's what I love about an online community, even if you don't exactly know what's wrong, people sling ideas around that nudge you in the right direction. One error message at a time
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Digi.Gram:
Solved thanx to Ketut

Thanx for all your help guys.

I hate the way that when you open a app and you exit out that its still running in the background and you are either forced to go into its options and close it or go into the task manger and force close it.

I want to know if there's a easier way to manage the apps so that when you close the program or leave to go to home desktop that it automatically closes, i hate the process that is currently inflicted and wish there was a quicker/easier method.

All help appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] joshndroid:
come on mate...

do you ever wonder why they turn back on? its called multitasking and android is pro at it... its not like ios and quits when u exit an app its actually shuffled to a lower process state and not using bugger all power... if the load gets high because another app is open; that previous app is then wiped thereby automatically providing the extra state...

\

if u really want a app; get autotask killer (you will notice many of them will turn back on its an android thing)
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Android is managing them for you and it does so in a very efficient manner.

The best way to manage apps is to not load your phone up with tons of junk you don't use or need. Other than that, leave Andy alone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] longint2:
I recognized the following problem some time ago. There might be a correlation with installing Virtuous Unity on my HTC Desire Z which i did in the same time. This is the problem:

When registering the Phone in a (known) Wi-Fi Network the phone seems to try to register with a (wrong) IP Adress before doing a DHCP Request. There is a arpwatch running in the network reporting the phone uses wrong and most likely random IP addresses. I tried to track this down and found out, that the wrong IP is the one used by rmnet0. The IP for rmnet0 seems also to be renewed just before/while the phone registers to the Wi-Fi network and eth0 is registered with the correct IP. eth0 seems to be down or not existing until then but after registering the phone showing the correct IP, rment0 is still different.

Any ideas what is wrong in here? My device is the only one having these issues in this network and before installing Unity i did not have these issues (running stock ROM).

TiA,

longInt
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] longint2:
Update: Seems the "wrong" IP on rmnet0 is comming actually from my 3G Provider who seems to use random IP for internal communication and doing some NAT stuff when it comes to the world outside the mobile network. Strange thing, maybe someone can make a statement about this.

It seems the phone is trying to rebind a lease inside the WiFi network using this wrong IP from 3G.

So the real qestion to my problem is:

How can I prevent the phone from using the 3G IP for Wi-Fi and force a (new/clean) DHCP request right from the beginning?
