[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pointern:
On my old phone (galaxy s I9000) i could store my contacts to the simcard.

when i bought my galaxy s2 I9100 this wasnt a option..

is there a way to get this option ??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Open Contacts

Select;

Contacts (top menu) / phone menu / import - export / export to sim card
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alil:
r u kidding me no options for storing in simcard?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haroonazeem638:
Yes, there is no option to save a new contact to sim card. You can only add it to phone and then export. Also, on the Galaxy S you could "Display" sim contacts only without copying (importing) the sim contacts to phone. But in Galaxy SII that's now how it works. I'm talking about the stock rom here. You seem to be using a custom rom.

I have the one from Bell Canada. I don't know if it's only in this version or all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pointern:
am using the stock rom that came with the phone in norway..

If there is a custom rom that can fix this for me ill flash that rom in an instant :P

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ruvenchu:
Hi guys,

I'm using a new AT&T Galaxy S2. It seems as though whenever I install a custom kernel other than stock, eventually my phone gets slower and slower and crashes. This includes the daily kernel from Entropy, as well as the basic CWM one from codeworkx.

It doesn't matter what ROM I'm using (I've tried a few), but whenever I'm using a custom kernel, it will work for a while, but then stop. It usually works for a few hours or so. However, after this, the phone will freeze. I'll do a fresh restart, and then it will fail to load a lot of my widgets, and start to freeze again.

I've tried this maybe 9 or 10 times, with consistent results. As soon as I flash stock kernel, it works perfectly fine (I ran it for about 4 or 5 days on stock with no slowdown).

Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ishbizzle:
Hey guys,

I've been working on this for hours, and feel like I'm going in circles.

Situation:

I updated to 2.3.6 this morning, and then rerooted via clockwork recovery mod. I used to have voodoo colors on my old root, but when i download voodoo control and control plus, the color editor is no longer there. Has it been moved somewhere else? Is there another app that does this? Would I be better off flashing another kernal (like Cyangen mod?)

Side note: my wifi no longer works. Displays "error" when trying to enable it. Known issue with 2.3.6?

I appreciate the help.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krex:
Not the ROM, the kernel must support voodoo colors. Flash another kernel what does.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
If you had wifi on when you updated that is likely the reason. You need to reflashbthe rom and then flash a kernel that supports voodoo colors.

[HTC EVO 3D] mattykinsx:
I could only imagine the whine if they rushed the update and it bricked people's phones or wiped their data. :rolleyes:

I know people think everything in life is/should be instant and perfect...but that's not real life.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Last week I noticed that they discontinued their providing of the LG Quantum, and just now I was on there and see that they have also discontinued the HD7. No wp7/wp7.5 choices at all at the moment.

I can never for the life of me find out future phones coming to Canadian providers, so I'm not sure if they're making way for the Titan et al, or if they've just given up.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
Must be temporary
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Thanks for posting that, good to see that.

I just hope it's true and the don't back out or something.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
It's kind of weird, I don't think any Canadian carrier has announced any second gen devices yet, have they?
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
Not that I've heard. However I do know that we're always behind other countries. What's new to the US or UK, generally shows up... I'd say... 3-6 months afterwards?
[Windows Phone 7 General] radeon_x:
Used to be the case - now we routinely get devices before the US. For example, Galaxy S II.
[Windows Phone 7 General] adesonic:
In the UK, only one carrier (Orange) is offering a WP7.5 phone (the HTC Radar), O2 still have the Mozart and HD7, nothing on Vodafone, nothing on 3. Naturally, they are all going big on the Iphone 4s which will no doubt result in queues in every mall in the country, If you want WP7.5 in the UK now, you pretyy much have to go with a 1st gen handset on contratc or buy your own SIM free (which is what I did). Microsoft really need to sort this out, most people here go to the carriers for their phones and get them on contract - they are never going to see Windows phone at this rate let alone buy into the platform.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ammarmalik:
How many 2nd gen devices are there? 2? I seriously doubt a lot of carriers will stock the Titan. It's way too much money to spend on a Windows Phone when a year old model can do the exact same things. Only a serious fanboy would buy it and WP currently has very few of them.

The other is Radar, which would have slipped past their radar in the midst of all the spanking new Android devices. You can't blame carriers for not carrying any WP7 phones when there aren't any to stock. Mozart, HD7, Trophy are old and outdated.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Freypal:
Vodafone are still showing the Optimus for sale. Interesting to see that Orange are no longer showing the Omnia 7 either...
[Windows Phone 7 General] adesonic:
Oops, missed that one,
[Windows Phone 7 General] species5618w:
Given the price I got my LG Quantum for, I don't think they sold a lot when it came out. At $80 though, it's a steal.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
That depends on how much changes are made to the reference design by the carriers. If all they have to do is change the radio bands, then of course it will come much faster there than here. Carriers here like to have a bit more freedom with the cell phone design than in Canada.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lip:
Sad that we still have no mention of any WP7 new phones coming out of Bell (or any of the providers in Canada).

Next to no marketing of them I guess doens't help.

Everyone I show my phone to loves it...need another one for work and would rather not get an iphone...

I really don't want to wait for 2012.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bobzero:
has anyone contacted Bell to see if the LG quantum will be getting the tethering firmware update?
[Windows Phone 7 General] scoobysnacks:
the stores in my area have no wp7 phones at all..

LG quantum is selling at WalMart for 120 as a pay as you go phone.

It sucks that they are pushing customers away from wp7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
They're probably waiting on new phones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lip:
It's funny...the latest Futureshop cellphone advertisement "booklet" in the local paper has pages upon pages of android phones and blackberries but no wp7 phones...however, Microsoft have a big advertisement at the end about WP7...

What a waste of f'ing money...why advertise something you don't even sell in Canada.

Microsoft is doing a terrible job with this phone in Canada...horrible...you cannot buy a wp7 phone even if you want to...

What a f'ing joke.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I seem to have very slow charging times in the car. I'd like a quality car charger that has safe but fast charging times. I know some of the 2.1 A ones only work for iphones and ipads. Any recommendations? I'd prefer one that has a usb port so I can plug in a straight cable or one that comes with a straight cables. The coiled ones don't work well for my needs.

EDIT - I am very sorry - I had the wrong forum open. Moderators if you could please move this thread
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tenaciousj:
I like this one, charges at 950ma which is good for a car charger. Its coiled but charges fast.

through Battery Monitor Widget. Also during my 30min drive to work, it'll only charge up about about 6-8%. With the EVO 4G, it'd be more along the lines of 20-30% i think.

I Have two of these and a whole mess of these. When a cable goes bad from being mistreated, I grab another from the glovebox and stick it in the USB slot. If you have an older device that uses mini usb (slacker G2 for instance), you can just switch out the cable. After searching around, this one seems like it would push out more charging power, though. The Belkin one doesn't have a rating and the Kensington one pushes out 2.1 amps. I think I am going to upgrade.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
It's all good. I maybe we can get this moved.

Samsung Galaxy S II
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Entropy512:
You need a charger that can put out more than 700 mA and shorts the D+ and D- lines of the USB port together.

If they aren't shorted together, the phone will go into USB charger mode, which will limit current to 450 mA if you have the same charging chip as the I9100, and 400 mA if you have the same charging chip as the I777 on AT&T.

Stock current limits on the I9100 and I777 are both 650 mA.

On the I9100, the current limits can be tweaked with some kernel mods. On the 777, they are fixed in hardware. Unknown about the Sprint variant.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
Do a search on eBay for 2.1 Amp USB Car Chargers.

I got a couple of these and use it in my truck. It charges the phone quite nicely on the top port which is 2.1, but has a second port incase my wife's phone, or my Bluetooth needs to charge at the same time.

I use this little guy + a micro USB cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QJ56WW

Has worked great for years, provides a full 1A charge power.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Thanks. I have a question for people talking about the correct wiring. Does anyone know if a standard USB cable provides the correct pin out or whatever you want to call it so a unit that should deliver 1A will deliver one amp for the ET4G?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blu3Fr0g:
I was wondering that myself. My HTC Touch Pro2 took forever to charge using the regular MiniUSB connector but if I used the cable with the HTC modified miniusb connector it charged much faster. So I am wondering if I use the HTC Evo View cable on my View in the car if the results will be the same versus a microusb connector.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Subiegsr:
How does the Motorola charger compare to the Belkin (http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Micro-Auto-Charger-5VOLT/dp/B002F0200Q/ref=sr_1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1318418667&sr=1-2) one?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
a standard cable doesn't do it, but if the charger is setup correctly it can.

basically you need either a charger or a cable that shorts the data cables, the only charger that I'm aware of that does this is the HTC oem one that came with our phones. (i'm sure there are others)

The cable I know that does this is the one I got with my duracell car charger model DUX8225 (i'm sure there are others)

If I plug the cable into my computer I get "AC charging" amperage, and if I plug any normal (good) cable into my HTC charger I get "AC charging" amperage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dohturdima:
That's the one I use
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
Someone posted earlier that this is a slow charger and it doesn't get the full 1A with our phone. Confirm/deny?

Transmission sent from a Galaxy S II with XDA Premium.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] whatsitsnamenow:
The phone itself is the slow charger. I use this and the Pre 2a charger with same result. The Motorola output is 850ma irrc. Doesn't matter as our phone won't charge at 1a, more like 650ma max if it is built like regular galaxy s2 phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
So there is no car charger for the e4gt that will charge quicker than others?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tracerit:
Apologies, im the guy who said the mtorola charger was slow. Turns out it does charge just as fast as a wall AC charger. The widget I had was miss representing the rate.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] yiannisthegreek:
Hi all,

I have my primary phone which is an international SGSII and I have my Infuse as my secondary phone.

I experienced random reboots on my SGSII which I couldnt seem to explain and I started using my Infuse for a while now and it has now started to randomly reboot which it only has started doing since I put my sim card in it and had NEVER done it with no sim card in it so... Can these issues be being caused by a bad sim card?

The card itself is a bit old...

Please advise...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Bandit_Kaine:
Anything's possible i guess, if you didn't change anything else or install any software on both that might have caused i would assume it would be the sim card.

Try one or the other for a day without the sim card and the other with sim card and see what happens. Then switch and re-test.

Interested in knowing if it's the sim card or not, as a last resort you could just buy a new sim card from an AT&T store.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] yiannisthegreek:
Thanks for the response... I have switched out the cards again to see what is going to happen.

And just so you know... I'm in Canada on the Rogers network... not with AT&T...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] h8rift:
Very possible since Samsung has implemented (since the Galaxy Tab 7" i think) a little "feature" where it forces your phone to reboot when it cant see the SIM. Its possible that the SIM is loosing contact and forcing a reboot. Hard to be sure though.

[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
For anyone who is up in the air between the top 2 rugged cases, the Kraken II is made much better for the Charge.

The belt clip on the holster for my Defender snapped the other day when it caught on the armrest of my chair so I went ahead and ordered a red Kraken II off of ebay since I had wanted to give one a try anyways. Got it today and everything about it is better. The holster holds the phone much more securely, the silicone is underneath the plastic so no more will it start coming off all the time like the Defender's did, and you can get it in colors :D. The level of dust protection is also a lot better thanks to mesh screens over the speaker and earpiece.

Hope this helps anyone deciding :)

Update 10/19!!!!

Forget everything I said above. I now hate Trident. Their plastic feels great and seems nice at first but is insanely cheap! A small piece next to the charger port broke off last night and this morning before I left for work I went to clip it onto my belt and when I went to squeeze the clip a little it snapped. Absolute junk. Thinking of just going to the standard Verizon case/holster combo and keeping it clipped inside my pocket at this point.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
For what would you need such a case on this phone? I have dropped mine (naked) on concrete repeatedly with no harm (to the screen/internals).
[Verizon Droid Charge] haza12d:
I actually like the Defender better than the Kraken. I think it just looks better, sleek, and more stylish. The kraken does have color, but it looks cheap in my opinion. My family has the Defender case on all of our Droid Charge(s). No issues with them whatsoever. I just like having all around protection for my phone, although I have never dropped it (yet), I know it'll stay safe when I do. :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Shogun_Iggy:
I recently bought a Otterbox Defender Case. It definitley makes the phone much more bulky but I gues thats price for protection. I honestly am looking for reasons to take it off and put my old case back on but I fear that once I do I will drop my phone and it will shatter into a million pieces....hahaha. I n all honesty, it feels solid and indestructible now, my only complaint is its bulk and how lint kinda sticks to the rubber...I give it a 10/10 for purpose alone and a 7,8/10 in aestethics...
[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
Mine dropped from ceiling level of a Lowe's retail building while up on power equipment once. Try that without one of these cases.
[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
Also I would like to say that the way the belt holster is made on the Kraken saved my butt. I almost snapped it the first day I had it (in the exact same way I did the Defender holster) but the Kraken's holster is made with a detachable clip so instead of breaking it flew into 3 pieces that snapped right back together.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jmorton10:
All OtterBox cases do the lint thing & it drives me nuts. The Incipio does the same thing.

I finally settled on the BodyGlove as it gives an awesome grip on the phone & does not attract link AT ALL.

[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
updated first post. Forget everything, Trident is junk
[Verizon Droid Charge] Riffrafter:
Have you looked at the Otterbox Commuter for the charge?

Not as "industrial-strength" as the Defender, but extremely well made and it does a great job of protecting the phone while still leaving all buttons and slots/openings usab;e and/or easily accessible....
[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
The holster is kinda important to me. Going to try the standard Verizon case/holster combo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ellisz:
I am using the Verizon holster with a Casemate case. Works very well. Only thing I don't like about the holster is that the clip sticks up kind of high and will dig into your belly in certain positions. Might be a belly issue though LOL

Not sure which Otterbox case I have but this damn thing is tough as nails. I'm in the Army and this thing has taken a beating. I've dropped it out of a vehicle going 35 and nothing happened to it. Dropped it from about 10 feet up as well and nothing. I'll post pics as soon as I can so you guys know which one it is. I just know it's 3 pieces (2 plastic then the gummy like cover).
[Verizon Droid Charge] yutzybrian:
Sounds like the Defender. Built in solid screen protector right? The case itself rocks but the holster is too cheap.

Sensitivity, no. clarity, maybe. Depends how well you apply the case.
