[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrebbruno:
hi guys,

I´ve been looking for this on the forum by doing searches and could not find an answer, if you could please help I´d greatly appreciate.

As you can see on the attached pics, my dialer does not show on landscape mode when I actually put a call, I can dial the numbers in landscape mode, but the dialer ITSELF would never turn into landscape mode. I do have auto-rotation enabled on the phone (dialpad works like I said) so I don´t think this is the issue.

I use this a lot on my car and at home, can anyone help me getting this feature enabled? Do I need a new dialer.apk?

thank you so much for all your support.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Been working on this for a few days, still in the "there's still a lot of things that i want to do" phase. But i figured I'd share a little bit and get some feedback. P.M. me if you'd like to test it when it gets close to being done. :)

Update: Getting close to testing stage. Still a couple of .apk's i want to get to and a few tweaks i want to finish before season starts. Pictures give a general idea, but expect it to change based on what my mood is for the day. =) Should note that screenshots look more grayish than it really is. Much more blue than gray.
[Verizon Droid Charge] cbrown245:
Instead of changing the color of the time in the status bar why not just remove it?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
I still have the habit of looking up at the corner even though i have the widget on screen. But that is a good point and i will take care of it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
I think it looks slick! Kind of reminds me of the Synergy Theme Chooser theme. I ran that theme for like 7 months on my OG Droid lol. Any chance of a bigger screenshot so we can see all the details?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Thank you, and yes sir. recheck OP.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Very very nice! I would pay for this theme! One question though, is it the pic, or are the signal icons a little off?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Just a little off. Just fixed that actually. haha.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Either way, still a badass theme! Can't wait for this to get released!

I remembered to click the "Thanks" button this time!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
I wouldn't thank me until i finish it. But I appreciate it. Did you figure out what was up with your SystemUI.apk? And I re-uploaded the image with the fixed signal bars. haha.
[Verizon Droid Charge] spc_hicks09:
Just makes me want it more and more! Lol.

Never got it fixed but I'm still working on it haha.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
I don't know if this will help but this is the process i would use if i were you.

Pre:

1. download apktool from here and here. Extract the files and place them in your C:Windows directory.

2. ADB pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk and /system/framework/twframework-res.apk

3. in CMD prompt, type "apktool if framework-res.apk.

4. In CMD prompt, type "apktool if twframework-res.apk"

That sets your framework files so you should have no errors while decompiling and compiling .apk's in APKmanager.

APK manager:

1. 0: adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk

2. 9: decompile apk

3. go into projects folder, make changes to images.

4. 11: compile apk.

4a. Type "y" when it asks if it is a system app.

4b. type "y" when it asks if you would like to reduce the #of errors by copying files.

5. go into the "Keep" folder in your apkmanager directory and delete the /res/drawable-hdpi folder (or whatever folder the images you edited are in).

6. go back to APKmanager and hit enter.

7. 8: ADB push /system/app/SystemUI.apk

Hope that helps. Let me know if it doesn't.

[Verizon Droid Charge] thac23:
What launcher is this? I like the call/text buttons. Will this only work on GC GBE? Or will it work with any EP3 roms?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Endless2232:
Go launcher ex. Then I used simple text icon maker to make the icons. For now its just gc. But maybe eventually on e3ph
[Verizon Droid Charge] thac23:
Oh wow, never saw that app, thanks a bunch. Good job on the theme too, it looks awesome!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jorge89:
So if you have tried to install Wind up Knight you already know it won't install on your GS4G, I asked the developer why and he replied:

"Hi Jorge,

Do you have an HTC Desire or a Samsung Galaxy S? If so, your phone is broken and you should complain to your carrier about selling you a defective product. Those devices are unable to download any application that is larger than about 30 mb. There's nothing we can do about it from this end--it's a problem created by Samsung and HTC.

Good luck,

Chris"

So my question here is, does any one have a fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ericmpanda:
I believe you go to manage applications market and clear the cache and data
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Ha.. Defective... psh. So what are you supposed to do, return it for the same "Defective Phone"?

Big question, are you using Data or Wifi to download?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
Have you tried the app download all files? I think I read somewhere that it would allow you to download larger apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jorge89:
I have tried both data and wifi, so there's no way to bypass this? I have never seen an app in the market that takes more than 15 MB but this one is almost 50 MB.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nazcalito:
Download app to computer copy to sdcard and install using something like root explorer
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theinternot:
EDIT: Oh well, I thought you could download the app to your computer fromt the android market... guess not.

Anyone have any other ideas?

I am having the same exact problem. I am trying to download a 31 mb file. It will not download. 20 mb files are fine. WTH?

I have tried all the app cache and data refreshes mentioned.

This is lame.

But, the suggestion to download to PC and load onto sd card is a great suggestion. Thanks for that. I hadn't thought of that.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] neotoky:
Yeah installing the apk from sd card works.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chris31jct:
I think raver posted a fix for this for froyo.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nazcalito:
Those big files are usually games and if you search you can often find the apk available for download somewhere other than the market. I did that with this sword fighting game but the game turned out not to be worth much.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] knarfsays:
It could be the new market...

I had this issue a while back on my vibrant and now again with Wind Up knight on my GS4G

I believe its the new market causing the issue.

When I uninstalled the updates of Market 3.1.5 and rolled back to 2.12 on my GS4G, Wind up knights Downloaded and installed no problem. My GS4G is rooted with Stock ROM.

My Vibrant is on Cyanogen Mod 7 with Market 3.1.5, unfortunately version 2.12 is not on the ROM so I can not roll back and install this Game.

I don't think its entirely a device issue. There must be something about the hardware that the Market Software just doesn't agree with.

Any other ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
I saw that on SGS I9000, custom ROMs fixed it by changing the download temp file size. Maybe we van do the same on SGS 4G...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jlc_38:
I have the same problem using the Android Market, but if it's a problem with the phone, why can I DL Peggle which is 74.1MB using the Amazon Market app? I've had no problems at all DL'ing huge files using Amazons Android Market. It wasn't until I heard about a game that was only on the Android Market that I ran it this problem.

I've also read that to fix this all you have to do is roll back to an older version of the Market. The updates have messed it up somehow.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
the problem is not the device...

the issue comes with the market sets a cache limit ...

eg cache limit is x size apk is y size if below x limit download if beyond x limit deny

the reason the trick i posted in froyo worked before the new market is it deleted out the temp file folders and recreated tehm without the restriction imposed...

now its handled by the apk itself..

also note working on removing it from the market ;P cause honestly its annoying as hell!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] knarfsays:
Definitely the Market

Its definitely an issue with the new Market 3.x

And it is cache related, but should not be something that we have to worry about fixing.

I found the issue on Google code on the Open Handset Alliance Project. The bug is open, and it would be great for everyone that has this issue to click the star so that the issue can become more important and hopefully be fixed for the next update to Market.

The issue was even opened from a rep inside Samsung.

Thanks all!

Hi,

I used the sdk manager to install most of the SDK's (2.2 ~4.0) When I start a new project in eclipse though, I only see 4.0 as an api level. Any ideas? I deleted and am reinstalling the earlier SDK's now.

thanks.
[LG Optimus Black] Dishe:
When I heard the Optimus Black was coming to Sprint USA in the form of the LG Marquee, I was very excited.

But it appears that the Sprint version was not met with the same positive reception. Users complained about poor battery (one person even said it seems to run out faster than it can charge), dropped signal randomly, and general screen lag during transitions.

I finally got a chance to use one in a store display recently (wrote about the experience here), and I must admit it seemed to have more screen lag than any of the other devices on display, even compared to an Optimus S (Optimus One variant). There are some folks who are tweaking it to work for them and like it well enough, but I recall hearing such great things about the Optimus Black, so I'm wondering where the discrepancy lies between these two devices.

Could it be Gingerbread?

The Marquee ships with Gingerbread, which LG did a horrible job implementing on the Optimus S. In fact, Sprint pulled the Gingerbread update on the Optimus S after numerous complaints about battery life and poor performance. Could it be that LG jumped the gun on this and should have stuck to Froyo?

What do you Optimus Black owners think of all this?
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
Well if this is true, then it does make sense why LG is still not releasing GB update for OB. Perhaps they may be trying to make it less bug than Marquee.

Can't say more untill GB is released officially for OB.
[LG Optimus Black] maniAK-:
That is the case i imagine as the android 2.3 Gingerbread on the US Sprint version is not the full Gingerbread as i have read in several sites but its a very close Gingerbread release thats why it is so buggy

So they will be making it more stable and final release for the P970 whenever they decide its finished
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
Aha...

Only one question for you, how much does Sprint or LG pay for your services?

- If they pay you a lot, congratulations, you are doing a good job.

- If they pay you a little or just nothing... I don't understand your way to appear into a forum and post this great manifest in your very first post... incredible.

To say that I'm in absolute agree with you regarding to the spammer-actitude of some people in this and other forums... I usually try to be a little bit more constructive...

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Huexxx , perhaps he is one of Sprint/LG employee... LOL :p
[LG Optimus Black] nosajsam:
I'm not getting paid at all...nor am I an employee. I own the phone & don't want people to steer away from it because of inaccurate posts. I am hoping more & more people embrace the phone, so in turn there can be more support out there in making this phone better.

Although, this is my 1st post hereI am active in other forums under the same username NOSAJSAM
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
Yeah, it's a point of view... you have convinced me.

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] tcaudill01:
Nosajsam is very active in the Android Central forum for the Marquee.

What he says in his post is true and is gleaned from the experience of users that have posted in that forum.

The problem that he, I and others at Android Central have with "dishe" is that he has been ripping the Marquee for a couple of weeks in any forum he can post in and he doesn't even have the phone and hasn't even held one until a couple of days ago.

Please refer to http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-lg-marquee/118994-marquee-improvements-over-optimus-s-2.html post #13.

We (from Android Central) don't mind someone pointing out flaws and giving opinions as long as they have at least used the phone for more that a demo in a phone store.
[LG Optimus Black] Dishe:
Good job, guys. Go ahead and deny the issues so that no one is interested in fixing them. At least I'm trying to figure out what happened here. For the record, nosa is coming from a windows mobile 6.5 device. As his first Android experience, I'm sure he is plenty impressed. But it would appear that those upgrading from another android device do not have good things to say. And I'd like to find out where lg deviated.

But it doesn't matter. I'm not here to troll or give negative opinions. These guys just get really defensive about this product. I would like to help bring the marquee up to the performance it SHOULD be capable of. All you two seem to do are get defensive and say everything is fine and I don't know what I'm talking about. Good luck with that.

Meanwhile, as far as wanting consumers to get the right idea- I agree, but not sure if the opinion of someone who has been using a touch pro 2 all this time is as helpful as you think. Sprint's policies have changed recently, ask them yourself. Folks have been reported this for a while, my own brother got screwed with a different phone, and at least one person who tried to get the marquee almost did as well. If I were researching a phone, followed your advice and then got stuck with this, I'd likely be pretty angry at you. What you have to remember is that this is your opinion. I am entitled to mine and we are both allowed to share and disagree. You think mine is invalid because it is based on other users posts and a very limited actual time with the device, and I think yours is invalid because you are new to the scene and don't have enough background to compare it to. Both may have merit. But your tone here is uncalled for.

I apologize to xda for bringing their hostility here. Thankfully they do not represent all of this or that other forum.
[LG Optimus Black] nosajsam:
Again, there are more & more people posting positive reviews & experiences EVERYDAY (that you ignore) & in the meantime you still seem to think this phone has a problem. Its not a matter of denial here...there have not been any consistent reported issues yet with the Sprint LG MARQUEE that need to be fixed. (by consistent I mean acknowledged with ALL owners of) Please don't misunderstand, the Marquee isn't perfect but with very simple tweaks (apps &/or settings) it can perform better....btw isn't this the case w/ EVERY phone??

Your Optimus S which I am VERY familiar with (my Brother, Mom, Dad & Sister in Law own them) was not initially without its share of problems. I can almost guarantee you were not 1st in line when the Optimus S came out because if you were, you would know exactly what I am talking about. We are also discussing a phone (Optimus S) that has been out for over a year with tons of support from people & developers continuously coming up with ways to make that phone better. The tweaks & improvements that can be applied to that Optimus S as of today, are not at all close to what it was upon it's initial release. The Marquee has been out less than 1 month & as you even mention, has not been widely available in Sprint stores (although, my local Radio Shack & Best Buy has had it in stock from Day 1). My point is the Marquee is still a baby. I am sure in time the more people mess with it, more & more improvements will be found...

Listen, I may not be thrilled w/ Sprints new 14 day return window either, but complaining about it has nothing to do w/ this phone or its performance. So mentioning it in each of your posts seems irrelevant to me.

Although its true, I have not posted here frequently but as it was mentioned, I am very active in other forums. Regardless of my post count, I would hope my opinion has WAY more merit to someone considering buying this phone, since I actually OWN THE DEVICE (2 of them).

[mod edit - removal of provocative remark]
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
hey look, an ice cream truck !!!
[LG Optimus Black] Dishe:
I'm not going to bother replying to everything in each forum you have followed me to, but I will at least respond to some of your concerns here.

Ok, wanna shut me up on this issue? Post links to some of them, and I'll post links to the complaints. We'll see who has more. But it shouldn't matter, because the very fact that there ARE some to link to means that at least some folks have returned the phone due to legitimate problems. I'm not here to play "he said/she said".

Dear l-rd, is that your criteria? If Bob's mom likes the phone despite everyone else having severe problems it is, it must not be a real problem?

I really think you might be alone in this definition.

Yes, but some devices more than others. Some devices, like the Sanyo Zio, were doomed from the start because of an underpowered GPU. And others, like the original Samsung Transform (not the new Ultra, which admittedly seems kind of nice), had performance problems that may have been driver related, however were never properly fixed. I followed that one for a while too.

While I can't vouch for the battery and other issues since I'm only basing that on complaints heard from people who returned (or tried to return) the device, I can tell you first hand that the Marquee was laggier than any of the other devices on display (which included other 3G devices in the same class, such as the Moto Admiral and XPRT). All running a stock launcher. And comparing to demonstrations of the Optimus Black, there is definitely a discrepancy here somewhere. Something went wrong because we know it COULD be better, even strictly speaking of stock experiences.

Again, be careful about what you assume.

http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...de-rooting-custom-roms-optimus-s-edition.html

I was, actually one of the early adopters of the Optimus S. We didn't have Clockwork mod or custom roms, or even JIT back then. I was a part of the scene for all of that, even contributed when I could to the collective. Do you know why I bought the Optimus back then versus the Transform?

Because it was smooth out of the box. Because without any tweaking, it had more FPS than the HTC EVO when conducting OpenGL 3D tests. Because LG did something right, and actually stood out as a smooth user experience.

Again, out of the box. No tweaking required. A stock Optimus S has much better performance than a stock Marquee, side by side. As well as just about any other device on display in the store that is a current generation handset.

Meanwhile, a better question to you in all this, is why do you feel the need to follow me around and post your personal vendetta against me in random threads across the internet?
[LG Optimus Black] spidiracer:
Squirrel!

I have the Marquee and I am quite happy with it. My only complaint is the short battery life but a bit of tweaking should fix that. I received mine a few days after it was released.

I have a BS in computer science and quite a bit of experience with Android. Take it for what its worth :D
[LG Optimus Black] AkumaX:
How did you fix the battery life? Mine drains like a mofo :confused:
[LG Optimus Black] tcaudill01:
Try the suggestions from here:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...improve-your-battery-life-responsiveness.html

Using these suggestions, most of us see around 3% per hour drop in battery and see 18-24 hours of life with moderate use.

I would also recommend Juice Defender Ultimate from the market. A very worthwhile investment.

Also, one thing to keep in mind is that cell signal really impacts your life. If you spend most of your day in an area that has only one bar or intermittent signal, you are going to have a struggle to keep your Marquee alive.

I have a US AT&T GSII and unfortunately they don't allow the access to the Network Operator Selection menu, so I'm told if I replace a file and restore it'll get the menu access back for me.

Can anyone who is on the STOCK Galaxy S II International version send me a copy of the file apns-conf.xml from the /system/etc directory via PM or post on here?

I think there's a way to extract it from the Stock ROM, but I can't find that on here, and don't know how to extract just that file.
