So there still might be some hope for us afterall. The mandatory 18 month support deal google is enforcing now means that this Verizon slider will hopefully get up to ICS, and if we can hopefully find something useful from it ( like port some of its ROMs, kernels, use some of its source) then we might have a shot at extending the Epics "life" right? I'm being hopeful because as bad as I want to jump ship to a new device, I'm not ready to give up my physical keyboard just yet.

EDIT: ok, just reread it JC and your right. As of now, all the hardware specs coincide with our Epics, the processor it will be porting is yet to be announced. It does say it'll be a "budget phone" in another article I read, so considering high end devices at the moment are sporting dual core processor 1.2ghz and up, I'm willing to be it will also be a 1ghz single core like ours
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
Unfortunately I wouldn't doubt it. The Galaxy S line(Not 2) was handled horribly. We should have been like Samsungs personal nexus line with support and updates, but not a single phone got that. Which isn't bad in all truth. But it could have went better with ICS coming soon.

Also aren't we still within 18 months? It's been a year but not too much over it.

[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Yeah especially if we were basically Samsung's testers for Gingerbread on another similar device. I don't know enough about development to know if ROMs could be easily ported from it
[Epic 4G General] pvtjoker42:
Everything I saw about the stratosphere showed it to be exactly like the epic, just for VZW. Been waiting for it as my girlfriend has VZW and her renewal is this month. And the leaked pics I've seen of it show 2.3.4, so maybe if we're lucky we'll see the source for that and can put something together from it if we don't see official GB released by then..
[Epic 4G General] Ceelos09:
The 18 month support policy wasn't being enforced until just recently so our Epic's, I'm guessing, won't get further than GB (officially speaking of course) Korey also stated that GB would be the final "dying breath" of the Epic support wise. So this could be our final chance at a big helping hand in development...
[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
Highly doubt this will be relevant at all. Thinking there will be similarities in driver code is akin to thinking there was going to be similarities in our epics and other galaxy s's. And we all know how well that turned out.
[Epic 4G General] Ceelos09:
Well what this handset has that the rest of the other handsets dnt is the hardware keyboard which I heard was a problem devs had a rough time with considering the other galaxy s counter parts had no hardware keyboard. Also, the rest of the hardware matches perfectly, all we need is the processor to be announced. I'm thinking this handset will help us out a bit somehow, but then again, I'm no dev, so take my "hopefulness" with a grain of salt

Accidently thanked you...

The camera will be different(1.3megapixel ffc) we have a .3megapixel

The keyboard however will be the same, 4 android butttons 4 capacitive android buttons 4" screen, the 5megapixel cam the same.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I think it will be similar. Verizon rehashed the Evo a little less than a year later. Verizon only has 1 dual core 4G phone. Finally, Verizon said they weren't getting a GSII variant and if this was dualcore, it would probably be considered a GSII variant just like the epic is.
[Epic 4G General] Dariste:
Well they also have a better screen because they have a super amoled plus instead of a super amoled so they don't have to deal with weird subpixels.
[Epic 4G General] SocialReject:
Epic 4G, is that you?

[Epic 4G General] corythug:
Well I guess best we can do at this point Is hope we can pull some dev off this device. But hey. hope is better then nothing.
[Epic 4G General] Ceelos09:
Yeah, that would work as well. In any case, even if their source or porting any of their stuff doesn't help us, their device community would still be of great value to us.

[General Questions and Answers] CatalystWon:
I am looking at getting my first Android device and came across this used Nexus S offering:

"The Phone is in great shape and there are no scratches on the screen. The phone comes with a case , screen cleaner, charger, and original box plus manual. Reason I am selling the phone is because my friend tried to root the phone, and now it doesn't connect to WiFi anymore it seem to be a software problem(easily fixable). Everything else in the phone works fine it can still connect to 3G make phone calls go on the internet."
​

Does this device sound fixable? As it is a Google phone, can I connect it to PC and d/l updates directly from Google to make it stock again? Or should I avoid this device altogether?

Thanks in advance!
[Omnia II General] kovatch:
so I managed to install android on my omnia but have a few angry birds questions, that hopefully you guys can help with

if downloading angrybirds for spika , where do you put it on the sd card or in my storage with the fryo bundle? how do you load it?

on angry birds rio I get a white background on all levels is this normal any kind of fix for it?

any help would be appriciated, my daughter is a angry birds adddict and I lent my Galaxy tab to the inlaws for a trip, so she is going through withdrawl:D
[Omnia II General] kovatch:
so after playing around still have white background on rio, playable but annoying. I tried the spica version of angry birds and it was playable but still allot of white boxes especially annoying is that the level boxes are white and you do not know what levels are unlocked. I guess that is the best it gets
[Omnia II General] Pingerek:
i believe that is a matter of proper 3d drivers... but i cannot find anythig useful on the net.. also in first AB have white background and in rio - it depends - backgroud sometime is appearing another time no...
[Omnia II General] voyteckst:
Drivers are the same as in beta1. Some other libs changed - we have to test it.

[XPERIA X10 General] pshdo:
Hi there...

My son have a X10i, that originally was branded with Danish 3...

Now at some point we decided to debrand it, root it and last but not least put in muiu and other roms and in the end the newest Android 2.3 from S/E...

Then the speaker died, and then the USB died...

I took it back to the store, and they send it, first to their own repair center, and then to a S/E repair center becource they could not repair it...

S/E decided then to replace the phone with a brand new one, and offcource with new warrnety...

The new phone he recived is a generic phone also with android 2.3.3...

So not allways when you root/debrand/whatever, the warrenty is lost... :-)
[XPERIA X10 General] kunalgahlot:
last year my X10's USB broke...i called Orange and they said they asked couple of questions like did i had water spilled..etc etc and then they asked me to take the replacement phone after 3 days,,which i got...never gave the phone for repair or to sony centre...in 3 days it was replaced and ofcourse it was all rooted and modded.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
I fear I am about to get into a heated discussion on this very topic tomorrow. Mine has been away for repair twice now. The second time it was sent to SE who decided to replace it. They have told me the IMEI number of the replacement phone (which will not arrive until tomorrow) and it corresponds to.....................................X10 Mini. WTF! :eek: North American spec apparently......if these IMEI analysis sites are to be believed.

I feel a small claims court case coming on.

Imagine taking your BMW in for a service. All done sir, here are the keys to your new Trabant! :eek: :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
what a scam..

some people on here have been getting neos and arcs.

I wouldn't exactly call an x10 a BMW though lol.

more of a volvo imo haha
[XPERIA X10 General] Devin-J:
lol

ahahaah! hilarious, but these sites are not to be 100% trusted. and i dont think SE will make such a mistake (only on rare occasions)
[XPERIA X10 General] Bennachie:
Well, we shall see. The analysis of my other phones' IMEI numbers is spot on................................................make, model, age etc. :(
[XPERIA X10 General] kunalgahlot:
yeah i remember one guy was waiting for the replacement and he got an arc when he opened the box :O
[XPERIA X10 General] a2ha:
yeah, if i still had warranty now they would replace it with the arc for me since my provider no longer sells x10's :(

Make sure you have the newest version of ODIN along with the correct drivers for your phone. Another good thing to try is changing your USB ports or restarting your computer.

Also post in the Vibrant forum since there's way more people that will know what youre talking about -- I'm pretty sure you'll be able to fix your phone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thronnos:
OK, new question... Thanks to your help I figured out how to make wifi only downloads over a mobile network.. But now I have a question of is there a way to make the system/apps whatever think that there actually is a wifi connection when there is not? For example, when playing gameloft games, in order to play online you need wifi... Which i do not have. Anyone have any knowledge on this?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
I don't know of any way to do that. You could try to use a wifi hotspot app on your phone, start the hotspot, and connect to the wifi from your own device.

[HD2 General] julioavalon2015:
Hi, I have problems with mi hd2, the buttons of my hd2 are unresponsive and my screen has become unresponsive as well, what happen is that one day I was using my phone and everything stopped working a take a closer look to the device and a found a little orange film with a black dot on the middle by the side of my device, I know that the little film is part of the buttons but I really dont know what the name of that piece is and i want to buy a spare to repair my phone because I love my device, can someone help me please, i want to fix it, thanks for your help:)
[HD2 General] bib*oops:
Unfortunately your problem seems to be much more complicated than replacing the little orange piece you found: that piece is the mobile part of one of a hardware button (volume up/down, reset, back, home, start, make/end call) and IMHO is not directly related to the problems you've described, could be just a coincidence (it should make that specific hardware button stop working and that one only!).

However you should try a hard reset and see what happens!

Good luck!
[HD2 General] julioavalon2015:
Thank you very much for your quick answer, but I already tried the hard reset and no good, nothing is responding, I do live in Costa Rica, and I really dont know how to solve the problem, I did though as well that was a software issue but nothing fixed the problem, also check all the hardware but no good(i'm studing enginering on systems).

I was did perform task 29 and install everything again but no good, and also check the digitizer but is ok.

i just want to know what the name of that part of my device is called so i can buy and try, in any case i need to replace that even if that is not the problem, also once it did worked, i place the littli orange film again on the phone where it was supposed to be, but after a while it did move and stop working again, I place it again on the right spot, but never got back to work, that is all the info that I have by now, thank you for your time

New Info: by changing from software i have noticed that on android it seems that is always like pressing a spot on the screen, because is like highlighted, and some buttons work, like the home button, so if I press it, it will highlight other option

You can set to hide all other contacts except for your Phone contacts. I use Youlu Address book for my contacts, the looks are pretty good too.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] er.davinder:

[Optimus One, P500, V General] sumanmj:
A few days ago LG released an official update for LG Optimus One P500 which allowed the users to update to Gingerbread 2.3.3.

needless to say that i have done so myself and enjoying every moment of it.

What i did apart from that was to extract the whole ROM that was being downloaded. I have seen the Russsian ROM that was leaked but didnt want to take the risk as LG official update was on its way.:)

So, here i am, posting for the first time in this site which has helped me a lot with my Optimus One.

I have uploaded the Stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 Rom (.kdz format) for LG Optimus One P500 and you can download it from here and flash it onto your Optimus One if you would like to do so.

ROM details are in the following snapshot :

View attachment 718802

This ROM cannot be rooted as easily as the Froyo counterpart (i.e. with Apps like Gingerbreak, Z4Root, etc) but can be done quite easily by following this tutorial. Just make sure that you read and follow the instructions to the word.

Thanks a lot if i could be of any help.

enjoy Modding

Smokin the whiff of gingerbread if u'd b so interested, but i think u should be aware of the fact that firmware updates are not always (and mostly so) available in all the countries at the same time. rather it varies greatly in the same country also. i got my update almost a couple of weeks after other people from other cities in my India itself had got it.

and moreover, i didnt intend to write this post so that i could be in time for others to update their Optimus one.

just wanted to give others an option of updating/switching/trying the official stock gingerbread rom, especially the ones who either use custom ROMS or haven't been able to update yet.

its just an option, not a regulation. so chill!!! :cool:
