Nice I've pre-ordered the European version (Omnia W) since it was pretty much dirt cheap with my existing contract. It basically has the same hardware as the Focus S and space shouldn't be that bothersome now that they've released the Spotify app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Hehe...that's how I feel about the Flash. I love the look of it. If it weren't for the limited storage, I'd be getting one myself. I may still do it anyway. But by the time I'm eligible for my upgrade, the 3rd gen. hardware will be out. Will be interesting seeing what that brings.
[Windows Phone 7 General] naplesbill:
Yeah, I will be eligible around May of next year. Hopefully we we see some great devices in round three.

[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
I just saw that iTunes Match went live and for an annual fee. I think the more and more I see these cloud-based programs charging fees for things we all have been using for free with internal storage, the more willing I am to separate my music from my smartphone by using an MP3 player exclusively for music listening instead of letting it be combined with my phone. And as long as smartphone memory capacity continues to drop like it is on WP7, that will be my solution instead of chaining myself to a fee-based system from the cloud.

Knocking media storage capacity out and just using the internal storage of the latest WP7 phones for apps, games and data like SMS, emails, notes and all of the other information data will allow me to settle for an 8GB to 16GB phone.

It's a shame to have to separate anything from a smartphone, which is meant to be a convergence device, but I won't cater to a fee-based system, no matter how hard MS or Apple tries to funnel people to it with ever smaller internal memory. If MS is determined to reduce the internal memory of future phones to the point that even data such as pictures and apps are in danger, I will just go to an alternate source for tech and help let this debacle backfire on them.

I have been realizing lately that I don't seem to have data communication during phone calls, which is pretty disappointing. Is this true? Is there a worksround?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Undeadk9:
You should if your on 4G I do at least. But 2G or lower it wont be there during a call.
[Droid 2 Global General] fluffy312:
So I just got the latest version of CM7 for my Droid 2 Global and apart from all of the awesomeness there seems to be a fairly big problem: my pc will not recognize my phone being connected. It used to work (I used it to unbrick my phone, flash CM, root my phone, unroot it because GB raped my root, and I just used it to charge my phone on a daily basis). I've looked for this issue everywhere, and I either can't find somebody that has the same issue, or the way they resolved it doesn't work for me. What's interesting though is that if I plug in my phone then reboot it, my pc recognizes it... But if I unplug it, my pc won't recognize it if I plug it back in again. Hopefully this is simple enough that I can solve it (with anybodies gracious help of course) but not too simple that I feel stupid (even though I know almost nothing about what I'm actually doing).

Any helps and/or flame is greatly appreciated.
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
You probably would have much more luck solving this problem by heading to the forums where people actually work on this CM7 port.

Yall need to install the nexus drivers through sdk tools.
[Droid 2 Global General] ElectroGeek:
I don't know about the above advice, but,

I do know that I have read many many posts where the problem was resolved by getting the most recent drivers for your device. Unfortunately, I don't have a link to these to post, and I am not sure this will solve your problems but...

Just my 2¢

D2G CM7GB
[Droid 2 Global General] catawalks:
Could you be a little more specific? I've got the latest version of the google USB drivers installed available on the Android SDK tools.

It's not a problem with the latest drivers. It works fine when the phone is connected to the computer and then the phone is restarted. When it comes back up it is recognized perfectly fine. It's definitely something wrong in the build.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ore0o:
I have it rooted with gingerbread 2.3.5 and i am not pleased.

my phone was slow. like making me mad slow. Its like my phone only wants to be fast a couple. I had launcher pro , go sms and go key board. But then i uninstalled all except launcher pro and removed all my widgets. and its a little faster but its still really sluggish. also my battery seems like it goes down pretty fast.

Should i download a new rom ? Im thinking of getting a new phone also. i was thinking about an iphone but not sure .
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Wich 2.3.5 and kernel?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Well I can't offer any help on a I9000 rom. Haven't been on one of them for a while. I would recommend you trying a native rom. But Have you tried reflashing that same rom you are on?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viny2cool:
is it stock or the custom rom? I am running S_Bamboo rom based on JVT and talon kernel...its really really smooth, fast and decent battery....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ore0o:
Im on apex , and i have tried reflashing . Im going to try a different kernel
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raikia:
My captivate was running extremely slowly (almost unusable) when I was running Mosaic VII. It was so bad that I almost dished out ~$600 for a new phone (contract wasn't up yet). As a last effort, I decided to try out CyanogenMod 7. To my amazement, my captivate is suddenly extraordinarily fast and ridiculously usable! The data connection is actually fast (used to take about 7 minutes to update Pulse (news reader), and now it completes in under 4 seconds), GPS is still meh but better than previously, and the phone interface is very snappy.

If you haven't tried it yet, I would highly recommend CyanogenMod to see if that solves your issues. It saved me a buttload of money since now I don't need a new phone until my contract is up!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
how is your battery life though? I personally have had the best luck with pinnacle.

CM and miui had awful battery, and i would often have to turn off and on the data (at least once a day).

this also was when i was using nightlies (maybe a month before the stable release came out) is there any difference in the rom now? Should i give it a shot again?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Nero:
Battery life has gotten way better since then. Also it's faster and the new features are great

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaxRabbit:
CM7 has been great for speed and battery life for me. Absolutely astonishing. I don't even care about the SGSII anymore.

PS If you try it, I suggest doing a complete restore, i.e. not using Titanium Backup as it seemed to slow things down for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
Going to give it a shot when I get home.

I'm optimistic, but I really can't see how it can even come close to a kh3 ROM.

If I just leave my phone in standby, after 10 hours, it might only go down to 85-90 percent. Last time I tried cm, it would go down 5% an hour.

The last nightly I remember flashing was around build 100 or so. Have they fixed the proprietary driver issue that causes the bad battery life?

Should I go with glitch kernal? Or stick with stock? And what glitch should I go with if I do use glitch?

Fingers crossed that it works better this time!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ore0o:
ya I am putting on cm7 right now, i had it earlier in the year and had the same problems you did and so i switched but im going back and I like the look of it right now
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raikia:
My battery life is actually extremely better than it was with Mosaic (and previous ROMs). After a day (from 8 AM to 11 PM) of pretty heavy use (reading emails, Pulse news, non-stop texting, and web surfing), my battery is probably between 10-20% left. Obviously thats not a lot (definitely requires a charge every night), but compared to my 8 AM - 5 PM (completely dead) battery life previously, it is a substantial increase. I have found that it drops from 100% to 60% pretty damn quickly, but then hovers in the 50-60% range for a long time (playing a 3D game for 30 minutes made it drop from 90% to 75%, but on a different day, the same 3D game for 30 minutes went from 66% to 65%).

I would definitely give it a shot again. I wouldn't do a backup and restore of your apps though....I'd reinstall each one again manually (you can restore the data to some apps if you want). Also, clear all caches and battery stats. Don't freak out if your battery dies to ~60% after an hour...it will stay around that percent for almost the entire day.

PS: On standby, this thing is a beast. From 8 PM to 11 AM (on standby completely while i was sleeping), it only lost 1% battery life. I don't use anything like Juice Defender or anything. Data was still enabled.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MidniteMarauder:
I've been using Serenity rc4.1, and about to flash rc5. Been fast, stable, and good battery life for me. Light use yielded me 1 day and about 17 hours on a charge. Haven't had any problems with wifi, gps, or really anything else. Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ore0o:
Well I'm on it right now and I like it better compared to apex. I can tell try hat my battery life is better. Does anyone know the best modem/ kernel that I can get for my phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
I use the stock kernel without any issues, but I've never tried any others. Modems are very geography dependent so it will take some trial and error. I am currently using UGKG3 with great success if you're looking for a starting point, and I've also had great luck with JJJV5, but YMMV.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virnik0:
Well, I'm writing from SGS2 right now, but I do have SGS too (my working phone no.), and I was not satisfied with with any stock (or/and) deoxed ROM I've tried (JVH,JVK,JVP,JVB, JVO,JVQ.....), because even fresh flashed or (and) tuned ROM felt sluggish to me. I've tried even few CM7nightlies, but I've been pushed away by some of it's aspects (it was fast, rock stable, but something around nightly #80, it wasn't mature yet for daily use). After a while on JVQ, I've finally decided to give that crappy chineese piece of **** a go...

Well, now I'm satisfied. MIUI ROM is based on CM7, so it's stable and fast, it can be configured to the bone, and with some gentle touch from MIUI team to the graphic design, it is best compromise between graphically advanced, but slow and unstable Samsung ROM and it's derivates, and superior rock stable and reliable CM7 which lacks any unified user friendly interface for all apps, and some details may not even work at all.

Give it a try :-)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
I've been running cyanogen 7 for a bit now and although the battery life isn't stellar it's definitely tolerable.

I would suggest using a design gears Tom or serendipity though. They are the closest to a stock cappuccino experience you're going to find.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ore0o:
So my phone was all the way down to 15% and I had practice, so it was idle for 2 hours and when i looked at it it said it had 25% left. and then it was idle for another 20 min and it said it was 27%.

im just sayin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
It's magic! Must be a new CM7 feature. I guess you can sell your charger on Ebay now :)

Your battery stats are probably just borked up, you can calibrate it manually or just run it down to dead a couple of times and it should sort itself out.

It looks like I've lost Kies Air for good. Are there any good options / applications / apk for wireless access to the SD card, Ringtone folders music and whatnot.

Kies provided access through the browser which was nice - not needing a client side install.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
i don't even use Kies Air

i use Drop Box, way easier ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pairustwo:
How do you get .zip files onto you SD card? Or Ringtones into the right folder?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] flipq88:
Just use software data cable, it lets you connect ur phone with the pc and go thru your sd card thru wifi

Ive been using this for a while since i hate usong the usb cord

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lyy.softdatacable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pairustwo:
OK Software Data cable is getting closer. It provides access to the Android file system via FTP. But in the file system I don't know where the Ringtones are, Where the pictures go and so on.

Again I want to say why Kies is awesome. Access to text based call log via browser window, Text Message records via browser window, Add ringtones easily (important to me anyway), access to expandable contacts list via browser window, Add and manipulate bookmarks, and of course photo, video, and music access including working with playlists.

All that plus a file browser.

This just makes working with the everyday aspects of the phone easier and provides for rooting around in the file system as well.

I'm looking for something that will do all of those things. Or at least some of them beyond the file browser.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] flipq88:
http://db.tt/2A6E3I2J

Well theres a download for kies, cuz i dont think theres any other app that can do all that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pairustwo:
Thanks (click). Any special things to consider when installing a system app? Like permissions or placement?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] flipq88:
Nah, it can be installed as a user app, but if you want, after you install it, you can use titanium backup to convert it into a system app

[General Questions and Answers] yocky:
I lost my phone on a plane in Indonesia, it's since been returned to me but minus the Sim card...and it also bizarrely seems to have been rooted.

I don't know anything about such things but there is a program called Superuser and another called CWM Manager installed, and when I explore the external sd card there are other .apk files on there that don't show up in Applications.

Should I be concerned? What should I do?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] st@matis:
ok...Superuser app gives you permission to change settings edit system files and lets you do many stuff that your manufacturer wont let you.Clockworkmod is just a custom recovery that replaces the normal one of your phone's.I dont think that you should be concerned.There are many guides in XDA that tell you how to unroot your phone.If you dont want to mess with these just be careful on what you do with your phone.DO NOT change system settings or edit system files
[General Questions and Answers] Lightyear25:
I would be more concerned about what was on that SD card, pictures, documents and such can be used as a means to identity theft.
[General Questions and Answers] yocky:
The only thing I'm concerned about is whether I need to be worried about using the phone in its current condition.

Is there any kind of key-logging software I could be exposed to? Should I take any steps to wipe the phone and start from scratch?
