[General Questions and Answers] method115:
I recently got a new laptop that has an HDMI extension and sense I don't need a laptop when I have a smart phone I just want to use it as a media center. I have an old PC doing the job now so this was a welcome replacement.

Problem is I'm lost when it comes to 720p media files. I've noticed that the size of the files can vary greatly from 2-3gb. For instance "The Green Hornet" is 720p 1.37gb. Then I found another one that is 720p but 3.47gb.

I'm assuming the larger one is going to be better quality but by how much? Is the difference going to be substantial? What do I look for exactly?
[General Questions and Answers] loewenherz:
The difference in size is most likely due to different encoding. So where a general rule says bigger file = better quality this is not always the case with good encoding techniques. So if the smaller file is sufficent in your eyes, go for it.

Hey everyone is there a way to send messages (mms) through wifi only?

Ie turn data off attach an image and still be able to send it through wifi
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] diabolicalangle:
Bump. no one has an answer to this question? I :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dalavar:
The only way I know to do this is to install a 3rd party app like Kik Messenger or WhatsApp Messenger. Only problem is that whoever you wish to send it to also has to have the app. Good news is both those apps are available for iPhone and Blackberry users.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:
Using Textplus. Free app to send messages to any #. The app will give you a temporary phone # to use. Yes use over Wifi or data

Just because your contract is up doesnt mean you have sign another 2 year. Youd be month to month... Unless there is something else Im not following.
[HTC EVO 3D] jamespweb1503:
I have been running senseless for a while now and it has been my daily driver. I had no problems with it, other than the horrible battery life.. I was running synergy but I uninstalled because of the random reboots I was having. Which ROM/kernel combo is running the best for you? Plus, I'm getting tired of the aosp/sense feel.. I need some excitement like MIUI, but I'm not too sure on how many bugs it has. I've seen that the only bug is 4g? Correct me if I'm wrong!
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
I'm currently on the stock ROM and seem to great pretty good battery life. I rarely have to charge my phone during the day, but also I'm not a very *heavy* cell phone user.

As far as MIUI and other AOSP based ROMs are concerned, not only will they not support 4G (WiMAX) but they also will not support the full range of 3D features at this point in time.

I've heard some developers are both working on WiMAX and 3D for AOSP but haven't seen too many detailed updates. If you rely on either of these features, AOSP will not work well. But if you can live without these two features, it would definitely be worth the 5-10 minutes to backup and flash the new ROM gaining personal experience.

If you're interested in using another ROM, I'd suggest backing up the current ROM and flashing over to the new ROM. Once you've done this a few times, it becomes very easy and in my opinion, this is best way to evaluate the ROM for yourself! Ultimately, doesn't matter what other people say if you're not happy!

Hope that helps!

Hi I am a new desire s owner and was wondering if the phone has SRS built in? If it does how do I activate it?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] mmmcfc:
There is SRS built in, you have to go to the music player and click on the button that looks like two WiFi logos. You can choose it from there. Don't forget to hit thanks ;)

Hi,

folow problem:

i made the upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3 and found out that there are some apps, language (German), try to downgrade to 2.2 since this was done (for 3Weeks) i can not use the phone because it shows AT&T when i push the power button, when i plug in the usb it shows just the charging symbol. Itry the 3 button reset nothing changed.

Yesterday i spend the hall day to find out is this a waranty case or not ?

Futureshop where i boughtthe phone said as long the phone is not running or show the ROGERS screen they can do nothing ???!!! Costumersupport - no comment.

At Rogers plus they said they have to send it in because its on a Rogers contract.

I tried the reset method with the Roger customer service the same result nothing changed. Just the AT&T screen.

My question is what else can i do to get the phone back so that it works befor i did this update.

I don`t no what downgrate it was, the only thing i know it was the update from samsung kies.

Have u any solutions ?

THX n Regards

Sounds like you have a soft-brick. You have to either buy a jig ( Which you can find here: http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-s-download-mode-jig/ ) Or follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=889128 Use either one of these to get into download mode, and flash back to stock with odin.
[Captivate General] jhogal1:
try using JIG to get it into download mode and do a reset with ODIN
[Captivate General] chappatti:
This is not a soft brick............don't panic. This is a kernel mismatch or bootloader problem. DON"T USE KIES FOR ANYTHING...except if you really want to brick you phone. I hate that program (my personal opinnion!!).

Have you tried the button combos to go to download?

see this link for some http://samsungcaptivate.wikia.com/wiki/Putting_the_Phone_into_Download_Mode

or google "Captivate Download Mode".

CHECK YOUR USB DRIVER VERSION. http://www.capfaq.com/w/USB_drivers Use the link to Samsung (click on "Software" blue link on top).....works best with Win XP, WIn Vista. You can also use 32-bit or 64-bit driver but see next comment IF YOU ARE ON WIN 7.

ALSO, DONT USE WINDOWS 7

64-bit

, unless you have to. My opinion again............but a lot of experience behind it. The USB drivers are for 32-bit and is in my opinion flaky. If you can use Win XP then great, otherwise go with Win 7 32-bit. Even Win Vista is good.

THEN USE ODIN.

YOU HAVE TO FLASH THE STOCK 2.1 I897UCJF6 from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1300843. The work upwards to 2.3. It is better to flash JF6 since I do not know what bootloaders are there on you phone.

.........if you can get download, then post back if you do not know how to get stock. There is always a chance of bricking your phone during flashing, but it is slim.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
I must disagree with your recommendation for jf6. I would recommend KB1 or KB2. They are both available in the development section.
[Captivate General] chappatti:
Agreed. But his 'case hsitory' is murky. In fact, I actually first posted KB1 then changed to JF6, since though he says 2.2 who knows what state his phone's in. He may also be stuck somehwere in between on 2.3, where GB bootloaders may or may not be on. JF6 without bootloaders would be safest.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
At this point, it looks as if he should start over.	Completely start over. With bootloaders. Yes I know the danger involved in flashing bootloaders, but in this state it may be the only choice. Attempting to use jf6 w/out bootloaders could result in another boot loop. Their is the option of using Heimdall to flash kb1, taking out the bootloaders before flashing.
[Captivate General] chappatti:
Yes fully agree.
[Captivate General] Cooper21:
hi,

1 thx for the help n support but i have no experience how this all work.

2 i send it in after phone caal with rogers tech support, they try to fix it, when its not fixable i geet a new phone.

[LG Optimus Black] fatcobrah:
i was using cm #8 and using profiles in setcpu and after applying Huexxx's kernel v0 setcpu shows that the device is lock at 1Ghz all the time except screen of which goes to 300mhz

and i'v noticed that the cpu uses only 2 frequencies (1000 , 300 )

so i'v flashed cm #9 with full wipe and the problem still here

i'v tried different the governor and the I/O Schedulers and nothing works :(

plz people ,how to fix it ?
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
Well,

if you install my kernel, but afterwards you make a full wipe and reflash another nightly, there wouldn't be any of my kernel in your OB.

In fact, flashing a new nightly without wipes will replace all my stuff.
[LG Optimus Black] fatcobrah:
:) thx bro i have flashed ur kernel v2 again ryt now and all frequencies work finally :D i think it was something wrong btw sometimes when i do full wipe and install new nightly i find my settings still the same :S

anyways ur new kernel (V2) is awesome

All of this ICS theme is amazing..

My review:

- its nice but I have problem with home screen when put the icon on center bottom screen it can't be remove.

- when launch the home screen thumbnail it's look so lagy and can't be add or remove page for home screen.

Maybe you can improve it at next version.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vivekkalady:
Thanks for your review

The ICS launcher is beta so the lag cant be fixed my me

I to got that problem of app placed in the dock center

Have you noticed the hiding of notification bar when you slide your finger from bottom to top on the home screen
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vivekkalady:
What tool are you using to sign the zip file

I was using apk manager is it the problem??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] blaqkarma:
I use apk manager as well but I did not tried to find what file cannot be signed..I just take a look on the meta and saw that there's no mounting commands on the script..that why I tried applying my updater script then just zip it by 7zip.then it works.later after work I'll check it a little but more..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] santoshsadani009:
I have only 2 questions which prevent me to use this amazing theme :(

1. Will this theme be ported to KPM ?? If it does, i will keep using KPM.

2. Is the ICS launcher removable ?? I have used ICS launcher and i didn't like it.

Theme is amazing !! Love it !!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vivekkalady:
There is a triplin version of ICS for kpm so i wont be porting this theme to kpm

connect the phone to PC

then take command prompt

type adb shell

then you can see a # symbol

then type reboot recovery and press enter

then you can see the recovery screen in the mobile

in that menu you can see clear cache thing click on it

to clear dalvik cache select the advanced and you can see clear dalvik cache

click on that

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
