It is not as easy as with the Desire Z (where you could use shift + key) : You can obtain accented characters with a long push on a physical key. All are available with the virtual keyboard.

But some are missing like the ß, or some typographic signs like < >. Maybe these would be possible with a future update or with a custom ROM.

Are these characters ok : http://ge.tt/9H27rvG?c ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] DK in London:
Yeah, those are exactly the characters that I'm talking about.:) Are those screen shots from the Captivate Glide? And if so, how did you get them then?

I've actually been considering the Desire Z as well, since that's available in both the UK and Denmark. But it's pretty old now and still pretty expensive. :(
[Samsung Captivate Glide] EMegamanu:
Yes, this is from the Captivate Glide with the AT&T's ROM.

I took these screenshots with the "power + home" shortcut.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Lisali:
Hi all,

I am looking at getting this phone. I have had a Motorola Milestone 2 for 18 months now and I need something new with a QWERTY keypad.

A few questions: Amazon wireless has this relatively cheap, without contract, on AT&T. Is it OK to buy this version and unlock it once it's here?

I am a bit worried that it does not have notification LED and a dedicated camera button. Also, some reviews have pointed out that the keys are not tactile enough. What are your experiences?

Also, can this be flashed with CM7/9?

Thanks!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] andyclap:
Just imported mine last week and I'm liking it so far. Yes the keyboard could be better designed (really, whoever designs these things doesn't have a clue), but it's better than my ancient milestone and quite spread out.

Notification light and camera button I don't really miss - and maybe a hack will come out to light up the touch-buttons instead.

GPS is a bit odd, not got it working yet - looking around for a fix which is why I'm here...

The AT&T version comes with so much bloatware it's unbeleivable. Will have to flash a cleaner rom at some point.

Weirdest thing is the oled screen is taking a bit of getting used to - it's so bright and vibrant, it looks a bit garish at times, and the pixels are visibly distinct. YMMV.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] sbiricuda:
Are you looking for this?

ps. How did you import your phone? Which seller? :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] andyclap:
Sorry about the late reply...!

> ps. How did you import your phone? Which seller?

Just took a chance on ebay - classicdesigns11 was the seller, and it all went smoothly.

thanks for the GPS link, had found it, but still getting very poor performance (although I get a fix occasionally now).

Cleaned up and using the excellent osimood rom now, which has no US-centric bloatware, though don't forget to export your carrier settings before flashing.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
I've had this phone for quite a few months now, and I'm still loving it!

Depending on where you live it may be cheaper to have it brought over by a friend, and get around import-taxes. But that's only an issue when you live outside the US. You can buy it unlocked from Negri Electronics. However, sometimes the phone locks again and then it's really helpful if you have the actual unlock code for your phone, so you can unlock it again. This issue seems limited to the OsiMood custom ROM though. To be sure I'd unlock it myself by getting the unlock code online.

No CM7 or CM9 yet, but development of custom ROMs should pick up when ICS is rolled out, supposedly later this month.

As for the keys, you get used to them after a while. But there are better keyboards. But the keyboard on the Glide is far from a show-stopper to me.

Hope this helps :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Lisali:
Hi there,

Many thanks for your response. I got the phone now, through a friend that was visiting the USA. I got an unlock code through Freeunlocks - although I could not be bothered with TrialPay so I paid. It was much cheaper than American Unlocker, which never responded to my messages. I am still on the original ROM and it did ask me for the code again on another occasion - weird! No more requests since then, but I will need to write the code down on the inside of the battery cover or memorise it.

The absence of notification LED is really stupid - what were Samsung thinking?

Looking forward to CM9! In the meantime, what is the main difference between OsiMood and Inception?

Thanks so much!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
Hey Lisali,

Good to hear you got the phone and code. Weird that it relocks on stock, though... :confused:

Anyway, I've used OsiMood and Inception v1, and v2.

OsiMood is basically Rogers' stock without the bloatware.

Inception has the bloatware removed as well, but has been modified further. I can't tell you exactly what has been changed, but this is reported in the thread itself. All of them work fast and smooth, and I'm still using Inception v1(with cranium kernel, not the ardat that comes with it). I did replace a few system APK's (calendar.apk and phone.apk), but it's been perfect ever since! Inception v2 is at least as good, and has the aforementioned bugs ironed out. No need to replace APK's there. But the theme was not for me, and I decided to go back to v1 and wait for ICS.

Regarding the unlock code, I also put it in the phone itself. I printed it, cut it out and taped it over with transparent tape on the inside of the casing. Writing it onto the casing might be more risky as it could wear off.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Maruzko:
I installed NoLED which uses the screen to show notifications.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lt#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5sZWQubm90aWZ5Il0.

To reduce battery consumption its always a black screen with just small dots or icons for the notifications, whichever you prefer. You can also set a timeout to turn the screen off again if you dont notice the notifications after a specified amount of time.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Lisali:
I know - must be some weird Samsung bug! GRRR! Thanks for your advice regarding ROMs.

Thanks so much for the tip, I will give that a go! :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] XQSsss:
Bought mine of eBay (USA) and got it send over to the Netherlands... used one of the unlocking websites found on google/youtube and got it unlocked within a half an hour (mainly because I had to wait for the code to arrive).

Phone works like a charm, the only few things that bother me though:

- the AT&T apps I can't remove (just waiting for ICS update to root the phone so I can remove these).

- It's really USA orientated, and there's no support for Dutch language and so I only get the English version of some of the apss in google play.

- None of the data traffic counter apps seem to count my cellular traffic right (that's too bad, but I saw that ICS will have a built-in traffic counter, so hopefully that will be resolved).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
I use LBE privacy guard though you have to be rooted, tracks my usage quite well, also allows me to set which apps use data wifi or 3G.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Maruzko:
Have you tried MoreLocale 2 from Google store?

[Samsung Captivate Glide] pierreone:
Hi!

I just bought my glide in new york via ebay, and I took the phone to hungary. I know that it is a world phone, and the frequencies are good for my hungarian t-mobile, but all I have is edge network. :eek: Sometimes it shows me the 4G in the notification bar, and it is super fast then, but it happens very rarely. I tried the phone when I was in the states with my AT&T prepaid card, and it was the same. My other phones can find the 3G and they work quite fast on it.

And I have problems with my wifi too. I mean the router is 3 meters aways from me but there's one 1 or 2 bars on the wifi signal. :eek: I tried different roms and kernels, and nothing changed. Could it be some hw problem? I disassembled the device, checked the antenna cable. It was connected properly, I can't see any clue of damage or something. Any ideas? :)

Thanks! ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Viktor0610:
Our phone is not 4G compatible, it's just an AT&T "bug". They call HSPA network 4G.

I don't have problems with wifi connection.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
It's just the cellular network there, T-Mobile here in my Texas home town was always edge network. Only the metro areas have the h+ network! :D

http://teamwin-recovery.blogspot.com/2011/12/developer-burn-out-and-addiction.html

He says he will fulfill his obligation to finish our recovery. The point I'd like to make is that people need to backup off developers and just let them work.

This is happening far too often.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
I feel for him because I know what it's like from developing a MUCH MUCH smaller app, it gets very annoying.

At the same time though, I hate seeing these posts and how the devs let the community get them so worked up, we're all human but things like this you need to be able to deal with and know they will happen.

Hope the dev can enjoy his holidays and
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zdidge:
He's definitely getting a donation from me when we get TWRP. No question.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ripalsanghani:
I feel like the ET4G users are more grateful after reading that. I mean, that ICS thread had almost or over $2k in pledges. I'm sure he will be happy with how our community, for the most part, acts and reacts after he releases.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Anyone else know immediately that it was Agraben as soon as they saw Teamwin mentioned?

I "kinda" feel for the guy, but he's always been very much of a "loves to dish it out, but can't take it" kinda guy.

When Team Alpharev or whatever beat them out for s-off on the HTC devices, he about had a meltdown.

He went full-hostile to pretty much the world for a while (on Twitter, at least), so much that the rest of Teamwin was doing the "we don't know this guy" dance for a bit.

Either way, though, I don't wanna wish anyone bad news, so I hope he gets it all worked out, because he's very much a hell of a developer, one of the best. (And it's very right-on for him to fulfill his obligations.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cdszoke:
He wrote they only received $500 on the hdmi port. I thought there was a bounty for that. I don't remember the amount but I think it was larger than $500. I will try to confirm but if it is true, than another bounty that failed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Which is why bounties need to be done away with completely. Some people seem to pledge just to see the amount get high enough that it will "light a fire" under the devs. Then, when the product is released, they don't follow through on their pledge, but use the product anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
I know that the other members from team win haven't been so active and we may be witnessing the end. Heck one of them posts about how much he likes his I phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Yeah, and he freaking loves it, and won't shut up about it.

(but he's more of a "graphics guy" than a real dev.....)

+ a million to that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
Shinzul.... Who spearheaded the Wimax movement doesn't seem involved at all and he was part of the heart of the team.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Whoa.... I was referring to Shift.

I have no qualms with Shinzul, as I've never exchanged one word with him.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
Just got the Christmas HD wallpaper. Thanks for the info!

This will make my GF jelly belly of my phone lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
wrong thread?

#ontopic

I follow Agraben on twitter, I have noticed his tweets getting more and more crazy! I think part of the problem is everyone was riled up and ready for TWRP2 when he saw the communities excitement he began to add more devices to TWRP2. Daily he would tweet about adding another device whether it was a phone or tablet, his work load was growing. I began to see TWRP2 never being released due to endless device adding, lol. Then I saw the tweet where he wanted $/donations to pay for 1/2 the new Galaxy Nexus, I dont think that panned out to well and it seems he bought the device anyway. That would be enough to tick any one of our wives off! And we all know it the wife isnt happy, neither are we, lol. If he had dropped the recoveries he had for the devices that were ready 2 months ago, things may be a bit different. People might be riled up to send some donations that way, but the endless device adding got everyone down, myself included.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
I was talking about shift also in my original post... I was just stating that also on the team Is Shinzul who has been really quiet. I'm not saying I had qualms about him ust that he has been quiet for a long time. He was really cool and gave updates on stuff he was working on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Yeah, it's not like he's a lead chip designer for Nvidia or anything at his day job... (Oh, wait... he IS...)

Doesn't Nvidia pay their employees a good salary? I would think that they would, but who knows..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I would think he brings in a good check, but thats still $750 two weeks before Christmas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
Whoops, wrong thread indeed LOL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
Its a fine line that many dev's have to walk; one side of them loves to work on new devices and the challenge of getting something to work on a device can be very intoxicating..On the other hand, it takes away from your personal life, and, eventually, the moochers, leechers, and the folks who feel they are entitled to everything and anything for free just because the registered of a web forum, drives away the creative, sharing folks who make the great software that we get to play with on our phones..

Frankly, even if he got paid for all the things he has developed for smartphones, it wouldn't make a differences, because, the first jerk bait, who complains about having to wait for an update, would just set him off again..

Any dev posting stuff on XDA, has to think about how they will deal with all the obnoxious ass wipers who seem to have overrun what used to be a fun, and exciting place to interact with others; its not just XDA that has this issue now, its pretty much every "Free" web forum that offers software and programs for anyone who can figure out how to register..

Maybe a "membership fee" type site, would help keep some of the worst, most obnoxious, douchebags out??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SocialReject:
^ indeed.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] huskerpat:
Free to read with a small fee to post in Dev forums (free for recognized devs) would work for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeremiah.rs:
I hope to god they do something like that here, something along the lines of MeFi.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
I like that idea a lot...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I thought it was a good idea too
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
Totally agree.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
I sort of agree.I think maybe doing like a Buck per thread to go to the developer. If your using it a Buck is nothing. The amount of ridiculous posts asking the same question that was just answered or basic things that if you don't know before flashing you shouldn't be flashing it. Coming from the palm pre I researched like crazy before rooting and flashing things. I'm no pro but just by reading I have answered 90% of my issues. I feel for the devs and am so thankful for those work and patience. Thanks to all of you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bbedward:
I would post somewhere else lol, what is considered a recognized dev. We just need moderators which we already have. No one will pay tp post their work, at least I wouldnt
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I dont think he was referring to the devs but more the people that come on to get the developers' work
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
AND, somehow control the fact that the same exact questions, in the DEV threads, keep getting asked over and over and over and over...

people are so damn lazy, that they will ask a question that has been asked and answered 1 or 2 POSTS above their own multiple times within a page or two...Just take a look at Caulk's thread, and you will see what I mean..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
I wasn't thinking pay per post. I was thinking like you had to donate 5 bucks to receive the privilege to post in general. People would be a little less likely to talk **** to developers if their account were to get banned and they had to pay another 5 bucks to post on a new account.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
Another good idea!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] huskerpat:
That's realty what I meant. There's one site I read that charged $20 a year to post. Cheap enough for most people and would help support the forums costs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nubsors:
I would pay up to 25 a year, but more than that would get to be a little too much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
yeah thats a lot for some but i would def. pay to post for sure if it was reasonable. totally agree about caulks thread... my god its insane. i cant believe how bad it is. and people say they cant find anything because there is so many pages of junk but at the same time continue to junk it up themselves. its really bad.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IA-32e:
I'd be willing to pay $20 a year to post in the forums and I definitely think it'd weed out the asshats.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poppygt:
People that pay to post would probably have an even bigger sense of entitlement. Once someone pays you know they'd act like they have the right to say or ask whatever wherever. I like the idea of a pop up warning people before they post. Then there's no reason not to ban them for breaking the rules.

anyone with the 4g LTE experiencing this error?

yesterday (December 6) my Xoom mysteriously gave this error while doing absolutely nothing on my desk. I rebooted it twice and wipe clean LTE sim card and reinserted it. at first i couldn't get any connectivity to verizon services the whole day. but this morning i saw the 3g service come back online, but still i'm getting the 4G LTE sim card error.

i tried to google search this problem and only found one post that coincided with my time frame. is there something wrong with my xoom or is this verizon fault?
[Xoom General] randywintle:
Noticed the same popup this morning, rebooted and it went away and came back...

Haven't messed with it yet. Good to know I'm not alone.

Also having the same issues with my Xoom. Didn't have any connection at all yesterday but this morning 3G is working. We'll see if they can fix this.
[Xoom General] Mechcondrid:
Its an issue with the 4g outage some sim card's data was erased just get a new 4g one and it fixes it did it yesterday and now it works fine

it should be free as well from Verizon mine was at least
[Xoom General] hwboy4:
Just got off of the phone with Verizon and they said that there is a 4G outage and that they're working on it.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
That happened to me this morning but was fine after a reboot. The possibility of this thing screwing up even more makes me want to demand that Verizon let me out of this contract as I've had nothing but crap from them and Motorola for 7 of the last 9 months.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
Wouldn't you atleast be able to get 3g service if that were the problem?
[Xoom General] inspiron41:
we are now. yesterday i wasnt getting any connection. there's something more to this bug that verizon isn't tell us. i should have asked my fellow verizon users if they were experiencing any 3G service disruption the other day too....
[Xoom General] hwboy4:
I am at work now which only has 3G coverage and it seems to be working OK. Just have the annoying message. When I get home (which has 4G coverage) we'll see whether 3G still works.
[Xoom General] EvilDobe:
Ha!! This just happened to me a few minutes ago. I got the Sim Card Authorization Error & my phone has been freaking out for the last hour or so. Having flashed a new 4G ROM this was waaay to coincidental for me. Glad (bad word choice) to see other people are having the same issue too.
[Xoom General] sodaboy581:
It's Verizon's network.

[Xoom General] Skydog:
Same problem here and also stock.
[Xoom General] hwboy4:
Back home (N central NJ) in the 4G coverage area, my Xoom is bouncing between "No Internet Connection" and "Verizon Wireless 3G". It doesn't stay connected to 3G long enough to be useable. Stock 3G Xoom, upgraded by Motorola to 4G and running the recent 3.2.4 update.

Earlier at work (NW NJ) in the 3G coverage area, things were stable.

Not seeing the SIM card message any more though.
[Xoom General] nattygirl:
Same here. Just got the sim card authorization error. Glad I'm not the only one.
[Xoom General] Dirtleg88:
It's a network issue with Verizon. My XOOM is giving me the same error. When I called tech support today they couldn't tell me when it would be resolved, but apparently it's affecting almost all 4G phones and tablets in the northeast area. Hopefully it will be resolved tomorrow.
