[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
have you updated the modems? preferably to EP1Q or EP1W (which should've been done automatically if you Odined the stock EP1W first)... it should say 'EP1' all down the about phone part in settings if its up to date, other than that there's not really much you can do as the Charge (and most if not all LTE verizon phones) have major connectivity issues with 4G
[Verizon Droid Charge] blspyro:
Is 1q typically better for 4g or 1w? Also would cleaning delvik and system cache help? Also are they aware of these issues and will be releasing a fix eventually?
[Verizon Droid Charge] anoninja118:
I've noticed improvement on EP1Q but some people say W is better and others say they're not any better than froyo EE4, no cache/dalvik wipes won't affect signal and as for an update I'm pretty sure they're aware of it as each subsequent GB build seems to have better modems but we'll see as nothings been officially announced or pushed out yet

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathan951:
So when I take pictures with my phones camera upright, the gallery shows the picture correctly... but now when I send that same picture via MMS (from either build in messenger or Handcent) it rotates the photo 90 degrees.

Now if I send a photo taken by my DSLR, that was copied to the SD, or a screen shot by drocap2, this does not happen.

Anyone else have this problem?

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathan951:
Does anyone else have this problem??
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rando991:
yes I've noticed this too. Don't know what the fix is except to take photos sideways (for texting)...anyone?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazinazn:
This annoys the crap outta me. I haven't figured out a way to fix this other than taking pictures in landscape.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caspertodd:
This is caused by the camera app, and how it tags the orientation. You can install a different app such as Pro Zoom 5X or something, and that should fix it. It sucks I know, but installing a different camera app should fix it (just try a free one first).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathan951:
I thought maybe it was something when it compressed the image, but guess not.

The odd thing is, that in the gallery it is fine, just MMS is effected.

Is this something that can be addressed by developers?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caspertodd:
Unfortunately not. The only fix is a different camera app.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathan951:
Sorry , not trying to beat a dead horse.. but are you saying that the stock camera APK can not be fixed/tweaked?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caspertodd:
I'm sorry, I thought you meant the Rom/Kernel developers fixing the problem in the Rom/Kernel itself. Yeah, the actual camera app probably could be fixed, but the problem is getting someone to do it. Not sure if anyone here wants to take the time to look at it when there are other camera apps that do not have this issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
You could also try this camera. Its the MIUI camera. Just place it in system/app, might have to reboot.

I pushed theis to the system/app, Loaded it, but it still sends MMS image wrong

(Its only when sending MMS, with stock camera, or this camera)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
So you used this camera, took a picture in portrait mode, sent it va mms, and its still messed up. Darn.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidApprentice:
The workaround I use to fix this is to crop the picture. Even just slightly in any gallery program. Then it orients correctly when attached. ^_^
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stkiswr:
Problem is the froyo epic ota. A Ginger leak corrects this issue. No way around it as far as I know. Start taking pics in landscape :-\
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
This was addressed many months ago. The simple answer is, yes, it could be fixed. But the fix is more complicated than the matter is worth. Recent digital cameras employ an accelerometer to determine how the camera is being held and thus dictate how computers and devices should orient the resultant picture. It does this via some sort of digital tag in the pictures coding that an application then reads. For some reason, the tag the Epic camera creates is then not properly read by the same phones messaging app. Frustrating? Sure. But is an mms that will be looked at for a matter of seconds before being discarded worth hours of effort to correct? The majority of developers have apparently decided it's not worth the effort, and this would greatly exceed my own knowledge.

Simple fix? Another messaging or camera app as suggested.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biker1:
I came upon this save issue, but I have the Epic Touch 4G.

I take the pic, and with Handcent, the image is rotated 90° counter clockwise.

But with the Native message app, the picture is fine, and not rotated.

Would appear to be an app issue, but with the EVO 4G, the pic was not rotated using Handcent.

I'm a little confused on this one.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wirmpolter:
is there an accurate battery monitoring app that works on the motorola atrix for mA amounts while the battery drains? and the reason I ask if there is one that is accurate, because I have tried using currentwidget, its shows no data for mA, but displays % and the mV. I am in the process of trying battery monitor widget now, but after going on almost to the end of 2 days, I don't believe it's actually accurate. While my phone is not being used and screen off it's lowest standby reading was draining between 15-22mA, losing about 1% of battery every 30mins or so according to the history readout.

im running cm7 beta, faux .2.0 1.3 kernel, radio n_01.77.30p, it's an unlocked motorola atrix from bell that im using on rogers. tegrapart d00
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmboy5:
Nothing will give you an "accurate" mA reading unless you can tell the actual mAh capacity of YOUR battery rather than what the battery is rated at. Any app that reports mA is going to be calculating it according to the mAh you say the battery is (again, already inaccurate) and how quickly the battery level percentage is dropping. There is no mA reading that it can just report, its just guessing from given data.

For Battery Monitor Widget though, 15-22mA on standby is weird, I've used that app for months and it has always said 5mA discharge for standby situations. Did you tell the app your battery's mAh rating or is it still whatever the default value is?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wirmpolter:
its still default i guess, i went to calibration tab, the total max and min are empty

the other fields below say

max: 4205mV min: 3164mV

stored: 1880maH total: 1880maH

measured: pro version only...(that one is obvious...lol)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tight686:
Your battery should be rated 1930maH unless you are using a non stock battery.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
mV != mAh

mV measurement used in the BatteryCalibration app doesn't show your battery capacity. It can only be used as a reference point to when your battery is at 100%. (for 100% it should be around 4200mV).
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
Yes, once again, I take no credit for the actual recovery... all credit goes to koush (clockworkmod) and bekit... I merely modified the recovery so that there is a bootloader 1.1 & bootloader 1.2 version...

DOWNLOAD [BOOTLOADER 1.1]

DOWNLOAD [BOOTLOADER 1.2]

NVFLASH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Boot into APX mode

2. If you are using Windows, make sure the APX drivers are installed

3. Use the following command to flash the recovery using NVFlash

nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-smb_a1002_bl1.1.img [BL1.1]​

nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-smb_a1002_bl1.2.img [BL1.2]​

ANDROID RECOVERY (STOCK/CWM) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Create an update zip (you can use the update zip of any existing recovery zip and replace the recovery.img)

2. Reboot into recovery mods

3. Flash the update zip

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

1. This version of ClockworkMod Recovery is capable of understanding internal storage vs. external storage. By default, if an external storage device (SD card) is detected, the recovery mounts that device as the SDCARD (/sdcard). In this case, the internal storage is accessible if it is explicitly mounted via the Mounts & Storage menu in the recovery screen. The internal storage is mounted as EMMC (/emmc).

2. If there is no external storage device, as a fallback to preserve all functionalities, the internal storage is automatically mounted as the SDCARD (/sdcard).

3. Like all ClockworkMod recoveries, all the basic functionalities like flashing ROMs, backing up the system, etc. work off the SDCARD. So if you have an external storage device (SD card), the recovery will use the external storage for all functionalities. At the moment, if you have an external storage device (SD card), you cannot use the internal storage (EMMC) for any recovery functionalities.

IMPORTANT:

1. Make sure you use the correct recovery based on you bootloader version, or you will not be able to access the recovery and you will have to NVFlash the recovery again.

2. Internal storage is mounted as /emmc and external as /sdcard, so copy update zips to the external storage.

3. If you do not have external storage, I believe the recovery should auto mount the internal storage as /sdcard.

4. Familiarise yourself with NVFlash so that you will be able to recover you tablet should, in the unlikeliest of events, you soft brick you device.

CREDITS:

koush (clockworkmod) for the ClockworkMod Recovery

bekit for making the first ClockworkMod Recovery for the GTablet

pershoot for the 1.1 & 1.2 kernel

MODS: If you feel this should go under the Development thread, please move it...
[G Tablet General] mydave1:
Thank You for sharing this tool.

Do you know what does this release differ from the cwm3.0.2.8 rev5 that some of us have been using on 1.2 bootloader ?

Thanks

Dave
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
I don't know for sure... there were some jumps in the recovery numbering... and I never kept track exactly... but it probably contains some small fixes... and has the ability to make use of an external sd card, including formatting and partitioning it
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
Anecdotally speaking, backups and restores get faster with each new version. CWM v5 on my phone backs up SO fast.

Glad to see v4 for gtab.

Thanks!

[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
I'm running the old green one (version 2). Works great. Will drop the new one tonight.
[G Tablet General] jazzruby:
I flashed this internally via flash_image from /sdcard and got some errors (I've seen this before with a successful flash) flashed again to be sure and it showed [not flashing header is the same]

Shutdown and booted into recovery but it just hung on the birds showing [recovery key detected]

Flashed it again via Clockwork 3028 as an update.zip (4015)

This time I got into recovery.

Doesn't seem to be any way to switch between Internal/External SD

If an ExternalSD is inserted it is used/mounted as /sdcard and if no External is inserted than the InternalSD is used/mounted as /sdcard as well (also applies via USB).

I guess the full benefit here would be that you can now format/partition both InternalSD (emmc) and ExternalSD (sdcard) if External is indeed inserted.

Thanks for this Craig, it's always nice to have options.
[G Tablet General] nvanlaar:
Partition SD doesn't work.
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Had to NVflash my way back to version 3. I was sitting at version 2, which I had zero problems with, except certain files require using 3+. Yours (4) has some weird issues with mounting the "internal" SD card. The only one I could see was external. No matter what way I mounted it.
[G Tablet General] nvanlaar:
If you remove the microSD and then boot into CWM it will mount the internal SD. (Yeah, strange.)

~Nick
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
Well, that's how the newer Clockwork recoveries work... if there is an external SD card present, it will be mounted as /sdcard.... while the internal storage can be mounted as /emmc (through the Mounts & Storage menu)... to keep things consistent with the way storage devices are mounted in CM7 and most Gingerbread ROMs...

But the recovery is smart enough to understand that you may not have an external SD card, in which case, the internal storage is mounted as /sdcard.
[G Tablet General] jazzruby:
I have an ExternalSD inserted and I mount InternalSD as /emmc however, when I go to backup/restore > restore, I only see External, so what is going on, am I misunderstanding something here.
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
Just noticed, mount USB doesn't work with this (bl 1.2 ver).

MC
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
OK, perhaps I jumped a gun here and took for granted that people are aware of the way CWM recovery exactly works... I have updated the OP with more details...
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
The problem is you think it works one way and everyone else is used to something else. I have used CWM Recovery on a lot of different devices, and I've NEVER had to mount emmc as the internal storage card. IMHO I think you have it backwards. It (internal storage) was ALWAYS the default. ALL the other versions floating around here are built that way also. Especially for the Gtab. I've used version 2 and version 3 and both default to the internal SD card. The recovery on both of my phones mounts the same way.
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Well this may be the case, but the 5 android devices I've owned or currently own all used CWM the same way. Installed directly from the app on my device. Sdcard is internal storage and emmc is external. The same way my current gingerbread rom on my phone sees it as well.

I'm not trying to get into a pissing contest with you, this is my experience.
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
Oh.. yeah... this is, and should be, a healthy debate... and your experience is from what you have running on your devices... perhaps some info about the devices you own... the recovery version, ROM versions... I'll dig in a bit and let you know what's the difference... but let's keep this other device talk off topic... perhaps via PM...
[G Tablet General] MicroChip:
...and I feel stupid, I usually have an extra sd card in my tab, but took it out as part of the process of helping the Flashback team and Clemsyn identify causes for SOD on BL 1.2, otherwise I would've noticed it mount the external SD and remembered to mount internal if I want to see it.

MC
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Outside of our healthy debate, can this CWM be modified to work the other way? As in seeing the internal storage as SD card? BTW, just checked, the newest version of CWM I had was 3.x.x.x... not sure if it makes a difference. My phone now uses a custom built recovery just for the ported CM7 I'm using now (IHO for Optimus V) . It sees only 1 SDcard. There is only 1 SDcard.

-Mike
[G Tablet General] craigacgomez:
Well, I've never done any "real" recovery coding till date... but it's something I plan on investigating... so I'll definitely give it a shot!
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
Maybe you could compare it to the 3.x.x.x that is seeing the internal as the sdcard.
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
No modifications to the code should be needed. For temporary, one-shot use, first unmount all mounted partitions in CWM, then change the /etc/recovery.fstab file and finally, kill the recovery program using adb. When recovery is restarted by init it'll pick up the modified recovery.fstab file. For a permanent change, replace the recovery.fstab with a modified one which does what you want.
[G Tablet General] Sharpe351:
I was thinking more along the lines of permanent rather than temporary. Thanks for the info.
[G Tablet General] rajeevvp:
I mentioned the temporary method because it lets you test out tentative modifications before you finally bake a proper recovery.fstab file into the recovery.img.
[G Tablet General] vonTraum:
Thanks and big ups!

Great work craig, cwm persh.. et all....

Took me a few tries but now that it's working I am having no issues.

I had a few issues initially figuring out how to get both to mount properly.

And, no offense to the recent poster, but why are you so concerned about switching the chips? It's (in my TOTAL newb-ish opinion) much more logical the way cwm 4 works... When the is only one card loaded (the hardwired one) naturally the unit will default to that one as it has no other option... But what if via a shock from a drop, or power surge, or gremlin attack, the chip became unmounted or corrupted... Well, if your system data and rom are on the replaceable chip, then it's a merely a matter of $20 for a 16 gig class 10 chip... And when installed properly, this cwm works like a charm. I've used in in cm7 and the chernal/clemsyn froyo. And several attempts (LOL the first 3 until I figured out that I HAVE TO AT SOME POINT PUT THE CHIP IN HAHAHH; then, the mystery of when?) that ended in boot loops and constant force closes and market issues... I went crazy, did full factory wipe and repartition of onboard and NVFlash back to stock UI, then custom ROM then after I did the cwm4 install (.img switch method) BUT BEFORE reboot, I slammed in the 2nd chip with just the ROM on it... Rebooted into cwm4 mounted usb, re flashed rom and rebooted with not an issue. I notice the flashing, and backups and restores are faster, I like how after you click install from SD the 'choose a .zip' option is on top..... I miss the blue text though. Chip mounts fine, file mgr ive used recognizes both, and I dont have to touch the mounting functions in CWM except to mount usb storage.. if both sd's don't pop up in windows.. then you did something wrong. I had several times where It came up with the cwm 4 screen but hadnt loaded properly. When I boot, the OS scans both chips.. titanium backup shows both etc etc... thanks again to all.... Does anyone know if there is a not-to-complex way to change the text back to that awesome pale blue from version3? And ive been hearing rumbles about CWM 5? Titanium B/U has integrated the nandroid backups and can restore apps and settings right from CWM 5... anyone? sounds pretty freaking awesome to me

thanks again

Hi

I bought some screen protectors from ebay (hong kong guy).

they are good, but they leave smears after i touch them. BAD!

anyone knows of good kind?

THANKS
[Samsung Infuse 4G] TDuran:
If you're looking for non-smearing, let me save u some money and let u know that the Zagg screen protectors are great, clarity, protection, etc. But they DO show smears from your fingers if they are dirty, greasy, etc. I read another post on here that said the Zagg protectors also yellow after about a month or so. Just a side note. I haven't experienced this but I did remove one from an old iPhone 3G and notices it definitely wasn't as clear as when I installed it. But I had it installed for over a year easily and I'm not sure if the discoloration was from me stretching it during the removal or not. Hope that helped! If it did, hit the "thanks" button! LOL!
