[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CadioXIII:
I am pretty sure that the stock keyboard is Samsung's take on it. Just like TW, this is their keyboard.

Also I downloaded the Keyboard from android 2.3 off the market. I'm very pleased with it as well
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AmbroseAI:
I downloaded it as well, but when you go to install it, there is a warning that says, "...Gingerbread keyboard application may collect all the text you type, including passwords, credit card numbers, and other personal data. Continue?" I hit "Cancel." Is this normal for a keyboard from the market to ask?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] CadioXIII:
I am pretty sure that is normal, of all the keyboards that i have tried in the past they all gave me a warning like that, i think that it is a built in message just for safety reasons but i have never had a problem with it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Jorge18:
I saw that too, but I didn't worry too much about it. I don't use my phone to enter credit card numbers or anything like that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mziol:
Yes, if you installed a Swype beta in the past it included this as well IIRC
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AmbroseAI:
Thanks guys. I went from a winmo phone to an iPhone to this, so just learning the Android world.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bighulk666:
Smart Keyboard Pro works perfectly on it.

unless im missing something its missing spell check and i have been using gingerbread keyboard for almost a year on my SGS so im use to the position of the question marks etc.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cu_ninja:
Does anybody know where I can get the black themed version of the gingerbread keyboard? I've looked everywhere. I had it on my Nexus S but had root and was using a theme.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
All you have to do is long press in any text box and select "input method" when the option pops up. It will ask you to choose between sammys take on either Swype or the stock Gingerbread keyboard. Hope that helps :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] phreshjoker:
If it was in a rom.. Then go into the zip file and open it up.

1. Open ____.zip file. (aka your rom)

2. Go to system/apps/

3. Now look for the keyboard that your looking for.

4. Extract it.

5. Find the apk file where you extracted it and then go to your phone and place the apk file in your phones sd card or usb storage.

6. Install it and it should work.. But idk. If it force closes then its not fit for the screen and firmware

6.

Hey guys,

Was using my Vega fine the other day...

Was using the new shuttle tool to read from a usb stick and all was working fine. Gone to use it today and it says the SD card is damaged and can't read it?

Have i done some thing wrong?

Its telling me to format it but i dont want to do this as it has ALL my apps and everything else are on it!
[Vega General] yani2000:
Can you connect your SD on a computer?

Then you could try and backup your data, format it and restore data back onto your SD.
[Vega General] foxguard:
Will give it a go!
[Vega General] foxguard:
Nope, it is still showing as corrupt!

So means I need start all over again right? What could have caused this then?

Do people take a nanodroid back up and save to a PC for just this occasion?
[Vega General] foxguard:
Ok, have got the vega ok again however all the Apps that were stored on the SD card are naturally not working, says that they are not installed... so going to the market on the vega I can see about 10 that are not installed.. have installed these and all are fine. I go to the market on the PC and can log in fine, go to my apps and can see all the apps that are on the vega, however if i now to go to install them again it says i have no device linked to this account? How? I have not changed any thing? Any ideas?
[Vega General] yani2000:
I have also made my SD card corrupt in my SGS.

Corruption on SD card occurs if your phone crashes and you take the battery out (abnormal shutdowns).

But don't know how the Vega could get SD card corruption, you can't take the battery out and as it seems you're the only case here.

Maybe your microSD card was already corrupt when you bought it.

And you first noticed corruption when you wrote to that bad sector on your SD card.

It could have also slowly degraded and more and more corruption could occur.
[Vega General] pininy:
hi,

i've similar issue, but once i reseat the sdcard it's fine again.

i also notice if i insert a mobile stick it shows sdcard requires format - damage...

maybe it's the format of the sdcard?
[Vega General] yani2000:
If you actually have corruption on your SD then I would suggest you try to test it more extensively.

Calculate how much free space do you have on your SD card and then find data with same size on another computer (actually it must be few MB less than free space on your SD) and make an MD5 hash from those files (create MD5 file with hashes and filenames).

Insert the SD card into your computer or connect it thru your phone/tablet.

Copy those files from your computer onto your SD card to fill it up as much as possible.

Restart your computer and phone/tablet.

Then copy those files back from your SD card onto your computer and verify the MD5 file against the copied files.

It's a strong possibility that you would then notice CRC missmatches.

If not then your SD card is really safe. :D

My phone says that the SD card is OK, but some files there don't copy back at its full length, therefore become corrupted. :(
[Vega General] foxguard:
Im not 100% sure i understand... Can you explain the MD5 file bit again pls?
[Vega General] yani2000:
In short MD5 is a short hashed value that is uniqe for each content/file (if file content is the same). With that MD5 value you can check content/file integrity (that some content hasn't become corrupted in a transfer process).

If you're using windows I really can't help you much there, because I use Linux.

I think this one works OK (you can also make SFV, MD5 is not really needed):

http://www.quicksfv.org/download.html

If it doesn't work for you, you can find some more if you go to:

http://www.download.com

and search for "md5" there.

Microsoft has also an app for checking file integrity.

Or you can google for "md5sum" for more info (google knows everything). ;)
[Vega General] loui1986:
are you running a custom rom or stock rom? The reason I ask is because I have had errors on nearly all the Modaco roms I have tested and the solution was to use moddedstockv2 and upgrade to vegacomb9 (I know it seems extreme but it is a much more stable rom than the modaco roms in my experience)
[Vega General] foxguard:
Loui - I on th latest Vegacomb

Yani - cheers for your help mate.
[Vega General] loui1986:
Ah well it may well be just a hardware problem then (I'm sorry I know that is not much help to you) perhaps you could tell us how lod the stick is or if you have been copying lots of files to and from it.

The reason I ask is because all things have limits and expiry dates even if they are not shouted about on the packet; Maybe the stick has reached one of these limits. If not then you could probably get a refund from the store you bought it from or a replacement from the vendor (as I recently got for western digital hard-drive that had SMART failure)

Also is it working okay now or have you had issues since the corruption?
[Vega General] foxguard:
The card is only about 3 weeks old, has not had much use if honest. Seems to be working ok now although since the market issues I have not been using it any where near as much as before so I cant give an accurate answer.

I think it may have been me messing around with the host mode or some thing as it did say i had removd a card that was mounted... i hadnt, i had just turned some thing off... so it could well be that which caused it!

Thanks for the info though mate, might see if can get a refund!
[Vega General] Fraser66:
Hi, I had the same issue, I had tried to move an app from tablet to SD card I then got the same error message about the SD card needed too be formated. Check your card in your PC, it will most likely be OK. I then reinstalled vegacomb 3.2 update 3. Make sure you wipe cache, factory reset and wipe Delvic then reinstal.

That will fix the issue, the chances of your micro SD card becoming unstable after 3 weeks are slim.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronsoup:
Hi there, my microphone is completely non-functional. It initially disappeared soon after flashing a CM7 nightly, and since then i've gone back to a samsung-based rom (Revolution), and it's still dead. I'm guessing this is a hardware problem now (Unless anyone has any bright ideas), so I need to return the phone to Three (or Samsung).

My question is do I really need to reset my phone to stock, if it's a hardware issue? I know that rooting etc can affect the Warranty, but surely that's only if there are software faults?

Does anyone have an answer?

Also, just in case it helps someone to fix my issue, the microphone registers absolutely no input, there's no problem with audio input when in Speakerphone mode, or when i'm using a (wired) headset to make a call.

Also, at the same time as the microphone going, my front camera stopped functioning properly, whereby it will freeze every few seconds and then eventually freeze and not come back until i reopen the app. Don't know if that rings any bells, or if it's connected, or if i'm just fing unlucky.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Custom rom or root = void warranty no if ands or buts specifically against Samsungs warranty rules .

Three no warranty if its not their firmware .

Would a repair centre pass your phone as warranty is the risk you take .

Stock rom or Three firmware and clear custom rom counter .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronsoup:
Thanks man, will look up on how to reset counter

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] roofrider:
stock firm= froyo,gb. available on samfirmware.com

ya it's done using odin only....download frm samfirmware n try again
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
For rooting ...

And once you fix your phone, use the upd_1.zip or tass-recovery-cwm.tar to root the phone.

Please note that if you want to remove the lock put in by the carrier, it is a different game.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
tha same problem when i use odin with the original frimware.

i don't know what to do to resolve my problem :(

the phone start, but i have screen flickers.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
1 Which version of odin? (Please give full file name)

2. Which firmware version?

3. Have you chosen the appropriate files in appropriate columns - tass, modem, csc, etc? (Or used the one package option - you cannot use one package option for packages with separate files and otherway around too).

4. Are you using the correct USB drivers on the PC?

5. What exactly do you mean by screen flickering?

Can you post output of the log in ODIN?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
Per logs, everything is going right. Unless you messed up the order in files are chosen in odin. (tass.ops, csc, modem, etc).

Can you post a video of the flickering problem? You may have to use another phone, and post the video to youtube.

Also, my question remains - was the phone tied down to any particular carrier?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
If you are having boot loop you should wipe data and cache in recovery.

If you are trying to flash gingerbread and don't have a carrier locked phone you can try flashing any gingerbread available at samfirmware.com. They work with any region's phone. If you need details on upgrading visit this:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
description about screen flickering because i don't have another phone to take video: when you put on the galaxy you have displayed in the scren Samsung www.samsungmobile.com and the phone reboot in loop and you have every 3 seconde samsung, and i can't turn off the mobile, for turn off i remove the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
i don't have acces to recovery mode, i have only downloading mode.

i tried to install new firmware like Gingerbread, but i have the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
Tried installing CWM recovery and then getting into recovery mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
yes i tried now, and also the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] genieass:
Have you tried other key combinations? Like pressing the big button in middle while holding the power button?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
Yes i tried and also the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yagya:
What's your problem by the way... Are you able to see samsung logo or text?? try flashing gingerbread from start. Read this if you have problem...

http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2011/08/upgrade-samsung-galaxy-popmini-gts5570.html

And if it is successfull I am sure you'll be able to go to recovery so wipe data and cache there. Otherwise falsh CWM recovery then go toi recoveyr and wipe data and cache...

Remember Home + Power Button = Recovery

:)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ChAyOTte:
the same problem with Gingerbread, i tried 4 version :(
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Aburel18:
hi there!

[Wildfire Android Development] AndHD2:
After having a HTC Buzz for only a few days now and spending most of that time trying to downgrade HBOOT from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001 without success, I thought I would share this very easy way of going about it.

I followed [GUIDE] Downgrade to HTC Froyo WWE for AlphaRevX (HBOOT 1.01.0001) without success. After reading through the posts a lot of people did it hassle free but for others they could not accomplish this at all, like myself. With this procedure Step1 was successful, Goldcard was created successfully but for me Step2 just closed without actually doing anything.

I achieved downgrade from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001 by simply installing a Ship ROM available on 3xeno thread [RUU] HTC Wildfire Shipped / Stock ROMs Collection [Complete]. The ROM is a WWE Froyo ROM and this will automatically downgrade HBOOT for you to 1.01.0001 just by simple having your phone plugged into the data cable, clicking the .exe and following the popup Wizard. The Ship ROM can be downloaded from Multiupload or Rapishare. After flashing this ROM I am now on 1.01.0001 and I successfully achieved S-OFF, flashed a custom Recovery and Rooted my phone by following the Revolutionary Method. I can now flash any Custom ROM, zip update or simply flash a percentage battery icon in the original Buzz ROM.

Step1 from "[GUIDE] Downgrade to HTC Froyo WWE for AlphaRevX (HBOOT 1.01.0001)" (Link above) was successfully installed before the Ship ROM was Flashed so maybe others can try Flashing the Sip ROM without Step1 installed and let me know.

I hope this helps others to get HBOOT to 1.01.0001.

If this helped then please hit the Thanks button.
[Wildfire Android Development] Bl@ck:
did you try http://revolutionary.io first?
[Wildfire Android Development] phantom200580:
he must first Downgrade HBOOT from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001 to use revolutionary

revolutionary work only with HBOOT 1.01.0001 to S-OFF
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
I think you will still have to perform step 1 successfully. Afaik, directly flashing the ruu will not downgrade the 0002 hboot to 0001.
[Wildfire Android Development] AndHD2:
I flashed the ROM above and it did indeed downgrade the HBOOT from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001. The memory card had a full format so no Goldcard present.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
But you had performed step 1 of ief's guide before flashing the ruu, if I am not mistaken?
[Wildfire Android Development] AndHD2:
Yes, Step1 was flashed successfully, Goldcard successful but Step2 didnt do anything at all. I have edited Post 1 to show this.
[Wildfire Android Development] M@jkel:
It worked! ROM & HBoot got downgraded, and we managed to get S-Off with my friend using THIS guide :) Thank you very much for bringing this on! :) Cheers!
[Wildfire Android Development] AndHD2:
Glad it worked. Did you try using [GUIDE] Downgrade to HTC Froyo WWE for AlphaRevX (HBOOT 1.01.0001) and if so did you successfully run Step1. I did but not sure if it works without running Step1 first.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_MKay:
Hi,

actually i wanted to post this question in the developer section, but i don't have enough postings to post there. I hope it's ok that i post the question here :)

I am creating a Mod for JVT and wanted to add the AOSP lockscreen. Adding the lockscreen is no problem and works fine. But once i compile a framework-res.apk the sliders of the AOSP lockscreen have two colors when pressed (wrong image loaded?!).

See here:

This even happens if i recompile the original decompiled framework-res.apk (without any changes). Only with the untouched original framework-res.apk the sliders have only one color.

I am using APKManager 4.7 (Linux) with APK Tool 1.4.1 (1.3.1 tested too).

Can you help me getting the AOSP lockscreen work without problems?

Best Regards,

The_MKay

EDIT: Found a solution: I copied all unchanged drawable-pngs to the new compiled framework-res.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lascoul:
I am not Apple fanboy, but i think that Anddroid OS has a big optimisation problem.

For example the iphone 4S had a CPU 800 Mz and it seem to be real fast. But the latest Androphone plan to use Dual CPU. Is Android OS needed more ressources than iOS?

Before make effort to get more material ressources, is n't time for google to optimise his OS ?

Symbian was an OS whitch was too optimsed and i would like to have an Android OS like that.

Someones wouldnt like what i said but it is my deep think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] saphirrot:
+1 BRO !!!!

I really dont know why the **** iOS is that smooth, never noticed any lag on an Iphone. But you should think about that : Every Phone needs his own setup, caused of CPU, GPU and other things like ram and so on....

every iPhone got the same setup, optimized for iPhone 4 , iPhone 3GS and so one. They all got the same CPU and GPU, so they really can tweak every singe hardware.

Google just give us a source code, which every Company, Like Samsung or HTC have to port on their new device...

By the way, HTC got much better optimized Original Roms than Samsung. ( I have seen some OFW running on HTC Desire, and they are very smooth... )
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spamtrash:
It is same way as MS passed: one simple question to you: how would you like to optimize the OS against HUNDREDS of available hardware combinations? :rolleyes:

Of course, the Apple choice is easy and smooth: ONE hardware set, ONE OS.

similar was already done by Ford with model T: everyone could have it with favourite colour, as long as it was black.;) and now the ford position on global market is...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dadyal:
it's easy to optimize a software for 1 device but for 10000+ devices it's not that easy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lascoul:
If google doesn't optimise the OS. He may do it for his phones. take a look at the future Nexus prime it will get a dual core CPU. But don't think that is necessary if the OS is much optimise. The ipohne 4S had only a CPU at 800MHZ
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lascoul:
But a think that the OS is not optimise for googles phones. Otherwise why will they use a dual core CPU in Nexus Prime?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] laconic5:
I thought the difference in speed was because of the way they handled multitasking. It was only recently that iOS even had multitasking. But this is probably just a part of the reason why iOS is faster.
