[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @johnsin:
Same situation

It appears I got some water from the rain in my USB port, and I never bothered to close my little slide cover thing. Anyways.. Things were very weird last night. First the camera would crash, then the phone stopped booting up. Finally, and I think when things finally dried out.. it booted, but the USB which worked before the boot issue no longer works. It charges.. but I think I fried my port.

Now I would like to take this back, problem is.. my phone is rooted, and I doubt AT&T will grant me a new phone with a non-stock ROM (running CyanogenMoD7 android 2.3.7).

Im lucky to have a service center located right near me, so i don't have to go through the hassle of the phone tech run-around. I just need to go there and I should be able to get a new device since I still am under warranty.

My problem is this.. Should I just "drop" the thing to avoid them freaking out because my new ROM?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
If it's willing to charge, there's still a chance you might be able to get data to the phone. Have you tried putting the phone in a bag of rice (to make 100% sure it's dried out) or tried swabbing the USB port with something thin enough to fit in the usb port, wrapped in a piece of cloth with rubbing alcohol on it (to clean the USB contacts)?

If neither of those things work, and it still won't connect, then I guess the decision to perform a non-controlled hardware restructuring is up to you, and whether you're willing to risk the cost of your phone.

Hello,

Today I tried to flash custum Rom on my GT540.

I flashed with Fastboot the ROM "Utopia RC3".

It is very good.

But unfortunely My Networt Operator is not listed there.

I use KD Mobile (Kabel Deutschland Mobile) in Germany.

(I heard that KD Mobile uses O2 Net.)

With original Rom (2.1) I had no problem to choose KD Mobile.

But with custum Roms (Utopia RC3 and SwiftDroid v2.0 RC4), i could'nt choose my Net.

The phone choose o2 Net automatically.

Is there some way to use my own net, KD Mobile?

plz help me.
[GT540 Optimus General] pythoner:
Kabel Deutschland mobile uses the O2 net. If you are not charged for roaming then everything is fine.

For Example: My AldiTalk Card uses the E-Plus net and i'm using the E-Plus net.
[GT540 Optimus General] torman01:
Thanks for replay, pythoner.

AldiTalk is prepaid card, in this case you can control directly your costs.

But KD Mobile is not prepaid card system. I can see the costs result 1 time a month.

Therefore it is very risky for me to use O2 net, without confidence.

As you said, KD Mobile uses O2 net.

When I telefon to KD Mobile User through KD Mobile, it costs nothing.

(Between KD Mobile users, telefon conversation costs nothing)

But I am not sure, if it costs nothing even if I call KD Mobile user through O2 net.

When I call a O2 net user, than I must pay something.

For this reason I am not sure to use O2 net.

In these days I tried some custom roms, but all of them could not find KD Mobile nets.
[GT540 Optimus General] andreas__:
the same problem for me but i think if the symbol in the statusbar does not show the R for roaming it does not cost more ;D
[GT540 Optimus General] zzsomebody:
Here in Australia I also have a similar problem.

My provider is PennyTel who are that of a Vodafone reseller or use the Vodafone infrastructure.

Both previously and even after upgrading to the latest Mur4ik's SwiftDroid v2.0 RC5 release, when my GT540 starts up it only shows Vodafone with no option of the Pennytel network ID.

There are a couple of other vodafone resellers also here in aus that I imagine by using the above mentioned rom then no doubt it will continue to show the Vodafone network connection ID.

Is there anyway, we can manually add this ID? I know its not really that important but to have the option then this would be good.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] waterhurley:
Well I was caught my the new MIUI ROM i saw this morning and decided to switch from Bionix. I have flashed many phones and farmiliar with the process. I left my phone alone while the install occured. I watched it wipe data and cache. Now when it powers up, the samsung logo appears for 2 seconds and a quick I9000 logo flashes for like .25 of a second. The 3 button method to force it into recovery. I dont have a usable copy of windows to boot camp from my mac so ODIN is currently not an option.

I can get the phone into download mode so i know its not a lost sailor, i just need a mac solution without booting windows. I really dont want a refurb replacement from warranty either :mad:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] rbk1016:
samsung screen of death...

SO here goes...

first off i am rooted, have all appropriate drivers, etc, have used dab to root.

I am a total newb, and was experiencing issues flashing a new ROM. when trying to install the zip through cwm the phone said "signature verification failed" or something to that extent. so being the deductive thinker that I am, I formatted everything: boot, system, sd, etc. After doing this, I realized that I totally wiped out all the files on the internal sd.

so i downloaded the heimdall one click- it connects but fails regardless of whether i flash boot loader.

i can access blue 3e recovery and download mode.

now. i want to know if it is possible to push or even install a ROM through adb. I've been playing around with it all day and have gotten nowhere.

i thought maybe i could load up a rom to an external sd but obviously you can't mount an extsd in cwm.

am i screwed?

ill gladly donate through paypal if someone can help me get my baby up and running again. i do not want to be using my nokia from middle school anymore!!

thank you in advance for ANY help you can give me.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnirage:
I currently have a Motorola Xoom and I do love it, but I have come to realize that comfortably holding it with one hand while using it is not easy. It's constantly slipping out of my hands while I try to maneuver it around. I would like something just a bit more portable and maneuverable. So I am looking for a good 7" android tablet with 3G capability. Here are the specs I am looking for:

OS: Android 2.2 or 2.3

Screen: Capacitive Multi-touch

Processor: Dual-core (if possible, but not necessary)

RAM: 512MB (at least)

Internal Memory: 2GB minimum (4GB-8GB preferred)

Memory Expansion: MicroSD is a MUST!

WiFi: 802.11 B/G/N (Prefer Dual-Band N, but not necessary)

Mobile: 3G (4G would be nice too, but not necessary)

Price: Prefer under $200 but under $300 is more reasonable.

The closet tablets I have found to these specs are the Samsung Galaxy Tab and the Dell Streak 7. I would like something that has a decent developer backings because I do love modding with ROMs and such. What scares me about the Dell Streak 7 is all the reports of soft bricking it by the NAND becoming Read-Only.

So any tablet gurus out there know of anything that meets the above specs? Thank you for your time! :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhousibo:
Am actually looking for the same thing.

I've been using the Nook Color with CM7 and feel it is the perfect size for me as I do a lot of reading with the odd bit of surfing. It's perfect for reading on the train (with one hand).

For me, what's missing is 3G capability to be truly on the go but have not found anything at the moment. Would also be nice to have Honeycomb.

I'm waiting on the Galaxy Tab 8.9 which could just be the sweet spot in terms of size but would like to have a hands on. Also it is a bit more expensive. Maybe a Viewsonic 7" as well based on some quick searches or a Dell Streak (would be curious from other Viewsonic or Streak owners on their ideas?).

Ematic MID 7" Google Android OS Multimedia Tablet & Kobo eReader - 4GB with WiFi

I am just wondering how you like your Ematic? My wife found one on Ebay and thought it would be good for the kids for Christmas.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slim_thumb:
Good luck finding the original Galaxy Tab 7 inch (P1000 with 3G), even a used one.

Looks like the Dell Streak 7 is your best bet. There seems to be many refurb on ebay which cost < $200. This should be right in your budget.

If you have been using the Moto Xoom, you may find the single-core GTab a bit slow. I did have both the GTab and Streak 7 at one time (until I sold the Streak 7). I definite find the Tegra 2 of the Streak 7 much faster than the Hummingbird of the GTab in terms of app opening and screen transition / swiping. However, the reason I kept the GTab and not the Streak is that the GTab is far superior in terms of Adobe Flash performance - I am talking about watching Flash video in the web browser, NOT through Youtube app. I have the Gingerbread 2.3.3 Overcome ROM & kernel on the GTab and never had the urge to upgrade to HC or ICS, because it is running so well. If I remember correctly, I had DJ Steve's Streakdroid Gingerstreak on the Streak 7 when I sold it.

The GTab can play HD Flash video in the browser (all 720p smoothly, and even some 1080p in low bitrate). The Streak cannot even do 720p. There is a known problem of Tegra 2 with Adobe Flash, which affects all Tegra 2 tablets of that time including the Xoom, Streak 7, Galaxy Tab 8.9 and others. If you don't watch a lot of web videos and only stored videos, then both the GTab and Streak 7 do equally well at 720p.

The GTab also has great battery life (tested 5.5 hours on wifi watching web videos; tested 7.5-8 hours ebook reading + little wifi web browsing; dunno about standby time because I always plug it in when not in use). The Streak can only do 3.5 hour continuous wifi internet video and about 5-5.5 hour mixed activities.

I see many refurb Streak 7s on ebay, which come with Honeycomb. I have never used the Streak with HC (official or custom ROM), therefore I cannot tell you how good it is.

If you find your tablet slippery, you can always buy a gel back cover.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
If you can wait a month or so, Google may be releasing a 3G Nexus 7. The only thing you'd be losing is the SD slot. But if you are used to using the Xoom you don't want to use Android 2.x on a tablet. The experience is so much worse IMO it feels like a giant phone. You should look with something with at least HC, preferably ICS or JB.

Quick update, I received my Klipsch S4a headphones and while they have good sound quality I can't get the "media controls" to work at all. The Klipsch Android app doesn't seem to work with this phone.

Essentially the headphones have just 1 button same as most headphones. The Klipsch app is supposed to enable control using various button click combos, example 1 click pause/resume, 2 clicks next track, continuous press to adjust the volume etc.

However on the E4GT I think the voice control app intercepts the button presses and the Klipsch app doesn't do anything. A long press simply launches voice command.

I haven't been able to find any way to make it work... hmmm. Disappointing.

Hell yeah it's disagoddamnpointing. I just picked up a pair of S4As I ordered from Crutchfield, total bust and exactly as you have described. The Android app does nothing and all that happens is we can launch voice commands.

On Android Market they mention this "The default media player on the following devices are not compatible and require a 3rd party media app for full functionality: Samsung Infuse, Samsung Galaxy S 4G, Motorola Atrix (List subject to change.)"

They also go on to list, "The follwing music apps have been tested and compatibility confirmed: Google Music, Amazon MP3, Pandora, Last.fm, Slacker (List subject to change.)"

Might as well just add the GSII Epic 4G Touch to a special FULLY incompatible list.

I picked up the Sony Ericsson MW600. Not only do you get bluetooth, you can use any earphones you want and have complete control over the phone and media. There is a mic on it so you don't have to worry about having a separate pair of earphones with a mic. And you can hook it up to multiple sources. I can listen to music on my Xoom and talk on my E4GT when a call comes in with a touch of a button.
