[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zer0w:
So I wanted to try out the lockscreen password method, so I did.

But now I just regret doing it, not even after 1 minute, it doesn't accept my password I set up, which is just weird and odd. Is there some kind of recovery password app or anything just to unlock my phone again. I'm out of ideas.

EDIT: Nvm, I just wiped my user data, and re-flashed darky 10.2.2 all is fine now.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HunnyBearLewis:
Afternoon all, quick question I can only find mixed answers on:

I am using Go SMS and would like to free up RAM by removing/freezing stock SMS. Does it make a difference whether it's uninstalled or frozen?

(Of course, I know the difference between the two functions but am wondering if somehow one or the other can have adverse effects on messaging.)

I would like to test it myself but am hoping the answer already exists - unfortunately I can't wait around all day to test if it works correctly.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nospin:
Go SMS needs the stock app to function, in fact I believe all of them need the stock app. Sucks, but that's how it works.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
I think this is true, because all the 3rd party apps do is let the SMS app take in the messages, then grab them and re-display.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbobvfr400:
Go SMS actually has a setting for stock sms un- installed, its under important tips in the advanced settings. The ROM I use actually has an option to not install the stock one from the off. (ILWT CM7) although I'd imagine a sense ROM might be tricky.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derfresh:
Hey everyone.

short info:

me device is a routed htc desire on GingerVillain 3.3 (= Cyanogenmod 7.1).

I'm using the app ssh tunnel to establish a ssh tunnel to my server.

my goal is to use the "individual proxy"-setting which allows me to specify apps to use this proxy setting.

the problem is: the proxy setting doesn't work. (the global proxy setting doesn't work, too.)

when I use an additional proxy app everything's working fine.

is this cyanogenmod related? (iptable-support? - but e.g. droidwall works without problems)

hope you have some ideas :)

thx in advance!
[Defy General] puked:
The defy won`t load when the data pins are not connected (shorten or data connection).

I noticed, that the Defy will actually load, after you connected Data+ and shielding/gnd - even if it`s just connected for a second, the phone will load, until you remove the cable.

This leads me to the assumption, that this (silly) behavior is the result of software, and not a hardware thing...

Why is this important you ask?

Well, I made an inductive charging mod and don`t want to choose - possibility to use USB OR inductive charging. I want both.

At the moment I am pretty pissed. I spend several hours to mod my phone (It`s still water resistant!), just to find out, that all that work is for the bin, cause the damn phone wont load without data connected. wtf... (hello moto?!)

Any help is appreciated!

The OEM Car kit is finally available directly from Samsung. It had been on backorder until today.

Use this code: SAMSUNG#1 for an additional 15% discount.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kanyewest:
Why does this car kit show a horizontal camera opening instead of a vertical one, like our phone has.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frigidazzi:
Awesome! Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered mine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dutchman71:
I assume it is not the correct picture. Will post pictures when I receive mine.

Thanks.. .just ordered mine too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Devi0124:
Does this not play audio through the usb port like the original SGS was supposed to do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
I too was trying to find this out. I can see no proof of a Audio Output on this dock. Don’t mean it doesn’t, but they are not advertising that it does, nor are there any pictures of it that I found. The Samsung OEM Infuse dock, that works perfect on our phones has an audio out that works even on our Epic Touch, and it is ½ the price as this one :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leyvatron:
the audio out doesn't work.... If you read his thread, that is the only thing he doesn't like about that dock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CrozB:
I assume you are referring to my thread? It actually does work :-) As it was pointed out to me in "my" review of the infuse dock thread, you just have to go in to the setting > dock settings > Check Use External Speakers...

-
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leyvatron:
HAHA! Yeah, your thread. Dammit! I already ordered this one. :o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
Ordered mine as well! Can't wait. Finally a dock that allows the camera to be used. I think they were thinking of iOnRoad and video recording while driving.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] walord:
Two points...

This was available yesterday and not on backorder

The infuse dock is half the price through at&t with free shipping (also as pointed out yesterday)

Just thought of another point. If you really think that the audio out from the official Epic Touch is going to be different from the Infuse dock, then this must be your first Samsung phone...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mmark27:
Agreed. $17 is a better price for the Infuse dock! Mine works great! Timely the official one came out the day after I got mine from AT&T.

Official dock from Samsung arrived today. Very nice, works as advertised. Micro USB and 3.5mm outputs on the dock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
Hey Dutchman, Can you take a screen shot of what the phone does once docked? Is the ock app included? I know that the car home app from samsung is not available for the touch as it was for the OG Epic. Unless updated in the last week or so.

Also would you be willing to see how well ionroad works with this dock? I am waiting for delivery now but a heads up would be awesome if you had the time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leyvatron:
also received mine today.... works and looks great.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
Mine arrived today in the mail. I Like that it goes straight to vlingo. Or ionroad if you choose. Audio out works great.

Overall very nice.

Does audio out through usb work automatically with any app or do you have to enable it with a stock app or Sound Redirector?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtruong23:
Fit with a case?

Hey,

For anyone that has ordered this dock, does it fit the phone while using a case? I'm asking because I have a TPU case and don't want to have to take it off every time to use the dock. Please let me know.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leyvatron:
doesn't fit... I have the Sprint clip combo and it fits REALLY tight but the USB doesn't connect. I almost feel like taking the USB/charge piece off and just using that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
It wont fit with a case. A skin maybe but not a case. Also audio out works for every app i have tried so far as long as the option is selected under settings. I am sad the mic has issues with vlingo though. I can say hi galaxy but it dooesn't hear anything else after that. maybe just me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wynand32:
Wanted to resurrect this thread and ask: did Samsung fix the issue with line noise that exists with the Epic 4G car dock? With that one, I experienced significant noise over my car's AUX port whenever there was nothing playing on the phone. It was so bad that I had to turn down the volume during silence...

My Photon's car dock has absolutely no line noise, and that's pretty much the thing that's keeping me from switching to the E4GT (I've added some lines to my account and have some flexibility right now).

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dutchman71:
No noise as far as I can tell....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nobrakes:
I don't have the E4GT dock but I have the Infuse dock and it does have noise interference when no audio is playing through the phone. But it can probably be eliminated with a ground loop isolator.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tri0xinn:
quick question about the dock.. I have a micro usb hard wired in my car right now.. just wondering is that what plugs into the dock for power.. is that what the cigarette lighter adapter has on the end?

i'm running out of space in my phone and need to make room. However, when i uninstall games using stock uninstaller, it only uninstalls .apk files and not 200-500mb data files.

i guess i can browse through file explorer and manually delete data files but i'm wondering if there is an app automatically searches for associated data files and delete them. any ideas? tia
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] EchoesOfOli:
With Android 4.0 release today. Im raising the question. Is there any future and posibility of Droid 4.0 on HTC HD2 - Is Hardware of HD2 even capable of handle this system ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Urobulos:
I've been wondering about the same thing myself. After playing with the Samsung Galaxy S2 I decided that it's nice, but the advantages are not great enough for me to justify the expense. Looks like the hardware of the new Nexus phone will be a slightly upgraded S2, so at the end of the day it is all down to software.

Right now it's probably a bit early to say, but I'd expect the OS itself should run on the HD2 hardware. Experience might be smoother on higher end phones though. Then again, new high end devices will start getting 720p displays and compared to the decent, but dated by now, 800x480 display that will be a big increase when it comes to pixels rendered. So you will be getting faster hardware, but the beautiful display will probably eat into that processing power a bit.

If tytung and others can port stock ICS to the HD2 then I can probably make it last long enough until they release the S3 or whatever equivalent HTC superphone (though considering HTC's track record over the past few months they really need to get their act together, but that's a separate conversation).

Then again, we've seen very little of the stuff that ICS can do. I have no clue how much of an improvement it will be over 2.3.5. I hope it will be awesome, but I guess I'll find out in approximately 90 minutes :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] casemandan:
Are you kidding? lol Our superphone has been able to run pretty much anything including the kitchen sink.

It's just a matter of time for the rom to be ported to the HD2
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] david.springfield:
The geniuses we have cooking here can do anything but solve third world poverty and debt.

I reckon the big question should be How soon do you reckon there will be a development thread with ICS rom as the title.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Urobulos:
Just finished watching the liveblog and I'm reading through updates on engadget and thisismynext.

Phone itself looks pretty sweet, but I guess that is off topic... so ICS.

First impression really good, though I have to wait to see some more hands on to form a more informed opinion. Though from an HD2 stand point there are a few things I am worried about:

1) face recognition unlock, personally I think it's a gimmick and I am almost 100% sure this can be disabled; the demo failure was pretty bad as well; but I wonder whether Google will include a new set of hardware requirements in the same way that Windows Phone 7 does; and if they do, to what extent can they be bypassed

2) no word on compatibility or updates with older devices; this was an event held to push the new OS and new Samsung made phone so naturally they would focus on this, but still I am a bit worried that Google might decide that they will only allow the OS to exist on new hardware and will somehow put restrictions that will be very hard to ignore. Then again I am writing this 10 minutes after the keynote has finished, while I'm waiting for the first hands-on updates so possibly this might not even be an issue 10 minutes from now :) I guess they were talking about integrating the software and hardware so tightly (and some of the new features look like they really take the advantage of 720p res) that I'm worried that the OS running on a single core 800x480 device will look a bit rubbish. Ah, and they mentioned 720p as the native res for ICS. I'm guessing other resolutions will be available since it's impossible google will just assume that even lower end smartphones will have 720p screen, but I'm a bit worried how the UI elements will interact with a lower res display.

Oh well. Time will tell.

Overall I'm pretty chuffed. As usual there are a few new/polished features which I don't care about (face unlock, dictating texts, most of the camera improvements since I'm not that much into photo taking) and some stuff which they are missing. The big one being facebook. They said that any social network can use their API so hopefully that means some tighter integration at OS level, but time will tell. They are trying to push g+ obviously and I like it way more than fb, especially when it comes to mobile, but at the end of the day I'll always end up where most of my non-geek friends are. One other trend which has being gaining traction is the proliferation of profile photos, qhich can be very nice and make the UI come to life. But in my experience, quite often people won't have profile pics, because they haven't posted one or the contact exists just as a gmail address/phone number and isn't linked to any social network. That and most people put profile pics which are rubbish thumbnails that will look like a turd once you blow them up on a 4.3-4.65 screen which will suddenly look much less cool.

Anyway. These are VERY early impressions and are mostly positive. I hope there won't be many problems with porting this to the HD2. And if there are then I guess 2-2.5 years of valiant service is not a bad run.

We should be getting it. http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/19/google-confirms-nexus-s-will-get-ice-cream-sandwich-for-real/

Theoretically it should run on any Android 2.3 device.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] the_mouse:
Direct from Engadget :-

<We've just heard straight from Google's Gabe Cohen that the Nexus S will definitely be getting ICS. In fact, both he and Matias Duarte think most Gingerbread devices will see an upgrade, saying: Currently in the process for releasing Ice Cream Sandwich for Nexus S. Theoretically should work for any 2.3 device.>

So it should be fine :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Urobulos:
Hell Yes!! I guess there is still a difference between "run" and "run well" - iOS4 on iPhone 3G anyone? - but I'm really looking forward to it. This is awesome news. If they are rolling out ICS to the Nexus S then we might even see a usable ROM before the Galaxy Nexus hits retail.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DannyBiker:
Honestly, I don't think Google would release an OS that would run only on dual core devices, while they are still far from being top sellers. There are way more single-core devices out there...

Beside, while dual core devices are obviously faster (I have a Tab 10.1 myself)...that's pretty much it ! Games will run smoother but not the OS itself. You don't feel the dual core is fully used.

I guess that things will get trickier for our HD2 at the end of 2012 when dual core will be more implemented.

So sit back and wait for AOSP/CM9.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] antovolk:
Looks like the SDK and the G-Nex system dump are both out...

Hope we see a ROM for the HD2 soon!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] michie:
ICS has no new hardware requirements so doesnt matter how old the device is, if it was capable to run gingerbread than your good for ICS ;)

Carriers won’t have to use nasty schemes to make people buy a new phone either, i wonder what their marketing trick for devices with ICS will be.

That Google wouldnt release an OS that would run only on dual core devices is also true, and dual core support doesnt even mean your device will run better, it just handles multitasking better.

(My old 3.2ghz dual core laptop runs faster than my new 2.0ghz quad core :))

The only thing that most certainly will not work is the face unlock feature. Although even then they might make it use the back camera :).

Add to that the 1080p recording and those are the only things I don't see ever working on our beloved hd2.

Fortunately, it's android 4.0 and they still didn't iron out our phone. ICS will be possible on hd2. Hope it sees even 5.0 and onwards.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] relldroid:
Its been out
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kanalcommander:
Are you sure about this? I thought the sdk is out buy heard nothing about source code but it would be great :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Droski:
I rather just turn it off. I mean do we really wanna turn our phone around just to unlock it. Plus- I didn't see the videos, but do you have to press a button to activate the process or is it motion sensed? Pressing a button would just make the back camera process a pain in the "A".
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Elmo108:
as Kanalcommander pointed out the SDK is available. The source will be published after the Galaxy Nexus ships.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] relldroid:
Yes your right my apologies :-D, and as for the face unlock feature, its pointless, how would it work at night? Is there a front facing flash also? And how hard is it to print a picture from Facebook to unlock someone else's phone (just saying)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kanalcommander:
I consider unlock via face recognation as a feature of comfort not security.

For me it would replace a simple slide down.

But its surely a good point to think about befor using it. And I'm quite curious to test how easy this feature is to fool or not.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Urobulos:
mwahhhh, since I post very little I'm forbidden from posting links, but just look at recent Engadget post and there will be a story which mentions ICS rom

looks like someone has already started on getting ICS on Nexus S.

I'm pretty new to Android (used WinMo with skins for a long time and only switched 6 months ago) so I'm wondering how long it takes for the wizards on xda to create working, stable Rom's for major Android releases. I guess every release is different and every time you run into different difficulties, but which one is the most realistic expectation:

a stable ROM (stable enough to use as a daily driver) released:

- before Galaxy Nexus release

- on release

- after new year/ don't ***** about something you get for free
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DonEmu:
Chances of a stable rom before the release of the Galaxy Nexus are next to zero. That is because Google wont release the source code for ICS until that phone has been released on the market. The SDK and system dumps that are out arent enough to make a stable rom for the HD2, especially since they cant even deodex the system.

We're looking around new year before CM9 comes out and then stable rom creation would be possible and that is assuming that the source code is released in November.

Still there might be ports released though, especially if the Nexus S gets an early upgrade or an early rom image of it leaks.

ICS already runs on Nexus S apparently.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kanalcommander:
After the sourcecode release of gingerbread it took only few days till first good rom, but I think the differences between 2.2 and 2.3 were much smaller then 2.3 to 4.0.

But this is just an assumption of someone with little knowledge in this.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] relldroid:
After learning more about the feature Im still in question, in the dark the phone lets u know there's not enough light and switches to the normal pw screen (pattern or pin) which is understandable, but unless it can detect a real face from a picture the only way I see this working is if someone who doesn't know u picks up ur phone, that way they can't use a picture. Other than that the face recognition is pretty fast and pinpoint.
