[Defy General] ryan8r:
Defy is actually pretty much waterproof as far as properties go but like every substance its qualities also tend to fade away. If y'all haven't noticed the phone comes with a guide where there is an indication of a waterproofing agent that is applied on the ridges of the back cover, you should always make sure you haven't wore it out. There are loopholes for the the water to make it inside but if you make sure it can't, it wont.
[Defy General] zakoo2:
i always make sure the back/jack/usb covers are closed, but still somehow the water got in. but it seems that only my battery is damaged, so i really got lucky, cuz i wont jave to replace the phone (i wanted to buy a bigger battery anyway).

sent from my cm7 defy...
[Defy General] ryan8r:
As I said there are always loopholes. I went as far as hosing down on my defy face front soon after there were malfunctions and I could spot water vapors at the screen on the inside. Took it apart, a night in the dry rice containment and it was up and ready the next day. Except for that I casually wet my defy maybe once or twice every week and it turns out fine.
[Defy General] ryan8r:
As for your battery I think your waterproofing agent completely gave away hence favoring that particular anomaly.
[Defy General] bra2006:
I've heard you have to keep an eye on the grease that lubricates the rubber in the back cover. It dries out or wears off and it allow water in.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yarner:
Hey, everyone,

there is a thing on market that keeps bugging me (and I couldn't find an exact answer all over the net, let alone xda): some free apps (typically high-end games) do not appear in the market app, and on the web-market they are labelled 'incompatible' with my Galaxy S. Some examples are: Angry Bots Demo, Doctor Who: Mazes of Time, Demolition Master 3d Free, etc.

I installed the apk's from other sources and they work just fine (maybe not Demolition Master, that runs with good speed, but crashes pretty often).

I have found someone on a forum saying that since the 2.2 update the hardware of the i9000 somehow registers as unknown in the Market, thus certain apps are marked incompatible.

Is there a definite explanation for this? Do everyone get this problem, or is it just me?

Is there a way around it (except for getting the apps from other sources)?

I'm running stock 2.2.1 with Speedmod kernel.

Thanks!

No, I have same problem with my SGS. I have write Google more time with region problem (Croatia,Serbia, now i see Hungary) on SGS Android Market. Unfortunately, Google solving a single on single applications at a same time, and it is very slow...And always write Google to me: "Be patient, we solving problem as soon as possible" :)

Temporary solution is emulation of other networks (most USA network provider) with Market Acess apk or Market Enabler, and than go all right.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damo666:
I'm looking for a smart wireless management app for my Streak.

Main function I'm looking for is the ability to let it automatically switch between WiFi and 3G as soon as signal drops below an exact specified value.

Right now I have a fairly fast 3G connection on Vodafone NL, but when I'm home I switch to Wifi to save cost. At some spots in my house the 3G connection is way faster then my Wifi signal, so I want it to atomatically choose the fastest connection.

Is there any simple app out there that chooses the connection with best send/receive qualitiy?Anyone knows about an app that can do this?

[HTC Sensation] samudabamu:
Hi Guys first post/thead here.

I installed HD revolution for my HTC sensation this afternoon and I'm happy with the results. I do have a few queries about the rom though.

Does this rom utilize both cores in the HTC sensation chipset? I know it fiddles around with the clock speeds (up to 1.51ghz) but just curious if someone can give me a definite answer.

One other thing, I used angry birds as a benchmark on comparing the performance. Angry birds is now choppy compared to when i was running it with the stock rom. All other games/graphic intensive applications run smoothly. Is this some kind of compatibility issue?

Regards

Sam
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I believe the current ROM 3.1.1 is set to use the second core when the first one gets stressed.

As for the games issue,this is the result of HTC's latest update screwing up the adreno200 libs and causing problems for most gaming.

With root explorer go to system/usr/keyboard-config/languages/phone.xml and check that all is well.

Does the standard touchpal keyboard skins work with curve? Also, will this (5.0) automatically replace 4.8 or do we need to uninstall 4.8 first.

And I thought Swype was good, but Curve rocks! Love this bad boy!

Edit - Never mind, went ahead and installed it. It did take a bit to get going, I had to download the language pack before I could select Curve, but love it, especially since I can use keyboard skins!
