I agree. My dad got this off a friend for 100$ flat and neither him nor I regret it. After all its been through it only has some minor nicks on the crome sides and a small scratch on the backplate. Best phone ive ever had

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oOo0Blue0oOo:
My device as stood up against a couple of small drops. There are 1 or 2 dings in the chrome bezel, but, other than that... it's still flawless, and I've had this thing since a day or two after US release. I stopped using the rubber case, since I'm usually pretty careful (except the 2 dings)... and what's the point of buying a super sleek, ultra thin phone, just to bulk it up with giant case. I also don't use screen protectors, and my screen is still flawless. I mean, the Galaxy S series has Gorilla Glass... which is scratch resistant. Besides, screen protectors reduce picture quality, and touch response.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
Lol kidding aside the iPhone is a good phone. I personally like the Android OS better, but I can't deny it is a well made device.

Like the above member said, the Galaxy S phones have Gorilla glass making them tougher to damage then most other phones.

But my vibrant had one nasty fall, it was in my back pocket...and i was attempting to hang on the basketball rim in the gym :rolleyes: . i took flight....and so did the phone, flying out my pocket and landing face first on hardwood floors! lol

it took me like 10 seconds to pick it up....i thought the screen would have been destroyed! scratch free it was :eek:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junglerumble:
lol.

I love my vibrant but the only reason I like it is because of our awesome devs. before I learned how to flash and everything I ****ing hated this thing. the nexus phones are the only ones that work great out of the box and even then I think it needs tweaking before everything is great. I'm going with the iPhone next because I want something easy out of the box that doesn't require much work.

the way I see it is

Rooted, flashed and tweaked android phone >>>>>>>>>>>> iphone

out of the box

iphone >android

only by a little though :D

I like android more too, but with every device there are tradeoffs. I'm willing to be in apple's walled garden for now haha
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0080:
I got my Vibrant right around when it launched. Put a Zagg shield on it and that Samsung carbon fiber looking case the same day. Actually replaced the battery on it two months ago and i finally took the case off to clean it. Not a scratch and still looks new. I didnt even pamper the phone. I just think the hardware was solid and im sure a good case helped keep the plastic looking shiny. Hope my new GNex looks as good in another year.

[Droid Incredible General] username235:
I dunno about other people here, but I'm loving the ICS animations that are built into it. I've seen other phones get them working for cm7, and Joelz even has them on Prime XL 3D, but I was wondering if anybody that knows how to do that can possibly make them for our cm7? Preferably for Nightly #258, the last one that's been up for quite a while now
[Droid Incredible General] swm5126:
I can post a framework-res.apk that I've been running on 258 with the transition animations
[Droid Incredible General] username235:
That would be awesome, thank you :D
[Droid Incredible General] swm5126:
Here you go.

All you have to do is go into recovery, mounts and storage->mount system

Then on your computer:

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk

Reboot your phone, and your animations should now work.

Edit: make sure your do adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk ./ so that you have a copy of your old one in case it doesn't work. I think that's the right one though.

yea sorry about that.. but theres alot of posts that say different things about how to root it but ok i just rooted the fone using superoneclick.. but now i need to kno how to flash a rom.. do i habe to get on recovery mode or wt? im use to flash roms on vibrant so thats why i dont kno anything about this fone
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tehgyb:
If you used Odin and flashed a kernel that has cwm then yes you can flash from that cwm recovery.

Check the development section for drhonks kernels thread and odin KJ1 with Voodoo and CWM. Its rooted, and will have CWM for you.

As for which ROM is best...

No.

Its pretty much impossible to answer that question. We have a few really good ROMs and its all personal preference. I would personally suggest trying out SimplySimple, INCINB, Octane or Valhalla.

Its a toss up, theyre all great.

[LG Thrill 4G] eastbayarb:
I did a search here and on google, and was wondering if there exists a list of stereoscopic 3D games/apps that are compatible with the LG Thrill/Optimus 3D? Also, is there a list of 2D games/apps that take advantage of the 2D to 3D conversion? I know there exists an ongoing list of 3D stereoscopic games for the Evo 3D, but the LG Thrill/Optimus 3D isn't even mentioned on that list. I seriously think there needs to be a unified Wiki that lists all 3D phones, all stereoscopic 3D games ( with compatibility for each 3D phone), and 2D games that take advantage of the 3D conversion.

Thank you!
[LG Thrill 4G] Ju5Tic3Droid:
Not likely not even the android market lists everything correctly it takes time for androids to be updated even the lists of compatible apps, maybe they will add a 3D market with GB who knows... but i cant find 3D apps other than Gulivers Travels and i dont feel like reading a childrens book in 3D.....lol

we dont even have the real time 3D converter... Thrill is getting Shafted with updates thnx to AT&T n LG. We were promised Gingerbread by AT&T by the end of 2011, and im pretty sure they have it on their desk right now because our twin phones from Verizon and and T-Mobile have Gingerbread already.

BUT Gameloft actually lets you buy 3D games off their website ($2 cheaper) you just have to enable install from unkown sources im prty sure

P.S. gameloft lied about order and Chaos 3D they have no version period. I'm so P.O'd

I just flashed the latest CM7 last night and just found out that after I turn of the Bluetooth from using it I lose all sound and it only returns after rebooting. Is there a fix for this?

Sent from my Poo Flinging Evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinbowker:
Ditto

It took me awhile to narrow this down, but I too have found that using Bluetooth knocks out all sound from my phone. Alarms, notifications, incoming calls and all apps lose sound until I pull the battery. Interestingly enough, my Bluetooth headset continues to work during this. I've turned Bluetooth connections on and off via the slide down menu and from Settings -> Wireless & network settings, to no avail. A simple reboot doesn't fix it for me, I have to pull the battery for 10 - 15 seconds to get my sound back.

[LG Optimus 2x] roadie3rd:
Hope Someone can help me and its a sinple fix

Me and the family have just moved to Western Australia from the UK

I was on Vodafone in the UK and purchased a Vodaphone sim in Oz

When putting it in the phone all works well (sms and calls) but no internet

I bought the same sim for my wifes phone (HTC Desire Z) and she gets sms, calls ad internet

I thought maybe its the sim but i swapped them over and the same thing, she has everything on my sim and i only have sms and calls on her sim

Ive tried the turning on mobile data in the settings and that did nothing

Ive rebooted so many times i cant remember how many

Im thinking it maybe time to get a new phone and get rid of the 2X

Hope someone can help

Mark
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
This should be easy to fix. You need to create an APN for your network. Usually this can be done by visiting your providers home-page, look for something resembling "Internet and MMS-settings" and follow the instructions. Some providers send the settings directly to your phone via SMS, some install them via 3rd party tools, some require them to be entered manually. This should be all you need to do.
[LG Optimus 2x] HerrKuk:
Check your APN settings
[Kindle Fire General] DataPhreak:
I have been trying to operate under a No-Root standard consumer/noob mode and just keep running into walls.

All the advice on sideloading is irrelevant for most apps you'd want to run, like Skype, Opera, Firefox, and GoLauncher Task Manager. I can load the apps and get to the Install screen but am blocked there and have to cancel.

So I'm rooting. I saw a suggestion to keep the device in unroot mode until you need it, which sounded right.

I think the grail here is a non-root solution so users can customize the Ux, get rid of the lousy backgrounds Amazon puts up, and if sideloading is going to be allowed, truly let the user beware and let the sideloading begin.

What do you think? Hear Hear! or am I missing anything?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Rooting is trivial. Easy to do once you are setup with adb.

As to keeping non-root most of the time, that depends on if you use something that won't work while rooted, like VOD... In that case, you need to at least temp un-root and it will work (might need to close it first).

Otherwise, I see no real reason to run un-rooted after you have root.
[Kindle Fire General] Peowraaku:
i've successfully installed firefox with 'adb install' on my un-rooted kf. it runs with no issues thus far. i then tried to install adw launcher standalone from here. this also installs fine, but when i hold down the home button and choose adw i get a force close from adw. is this a dead end without root?
[Kindle Fire General] Piercing Heavens:
My ADW runs great with a backup I made from my phone with Astro
[Kindle Fire General] Peowraaku:
just tried this with my CM7 phone (along with every variation i could think of) and still always getting force close no matter how i try to start ADW
[Kindle Fire General] DataPhreak:
Rooting is trivial for folks like us but I'm not going to tell a noob to download the sdk, mod files, etc. It is just too much for the young mind to grasp. It's why iPod and iPads rule the day and why AOL lived as long as it did--people don't want to take the extra steps.

Anyway, if there were really straightforward ways to sideload and not get locked out and to clean up the Ux issues, then imo most folks would do the lightweight appstore based mods.
[Kindle Fire General] SeanBlader:
This is exactly the reason why I'm not sure I will root my Kindle. I rooted my Evo 4G and my Galaxy Tab, but I might leave the Kindle so I can USE it rather than configure it. Getting bored of trying to figure stuff out like that as I get older.

I have a co-worker who's the young hacker type and he's left his alone, just using Google's mobile web interface for gmail. I might do that, and recommend it for my mom who only checks her personal email like monthly, maybe with the instant on Kindle and wifi at work and home she'll check it more.
[Kindle Fire General] YMark:
What is VOD? If you mean video on demand or streaming, it most certainly will work if you're rooted. The "trick" is to rename the "su" file in /system/bin/
[Kindle Fire General] zonbal33:
Vod=video on demand.

How do you get vod or amazon prime video to work once rooted? I'm not rooted yet but taking the plunge tonight. BTW, What thread should I follow to root my KF and then install all the google apps?

Have 3 more questions.

What launchers work on the KF? ADW, LP,etc.?

All keyboards work?

Is there any way to text on the kindle? That would help me so much.

What email apps do you reccomend, the stock email app is not agreeing with me.
[Kindle Fire General] ledd760:
I have a kindle running 6.2 and I try to root it with superoneclick and it says everything goes ok but then my kindle hangs on the boot screen for a long time. I get it going then I run android terminal and do the su command then It says I dont have access to the root and ideas?
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
After you have rooted, get the OTA RootKeeper from Voodoo. It will allow you to temp unroot really easy at which point you can use VOD without the block. IF you already have VOD running, you need to kill it from the applications screen (or some other task manager) and then it will run.

A commonly used one is: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1348830

I am using Go Launcher EX and it works well. I have ADW as well loaded, but I've never used it before so I have not yet messed with it.

Some do, some don't. You have to do some manual work to get any of them to work. I am using Thumb Keyboard with great success.

True SMS is not really possible as it has no data radio, but you can use alternatives. I think with sprint you can use their web interface. There are other options but not something I've looked into.

IF I was using it for normal email, I would use K9Mail... I've not bother on this device, but I do have Touchdown for Exchange running on it for testing MaaS protection and it works very well for that. It only works with Exchange servers though (1 account).
[Kindle Fire General] YMark:
I posted the solution in post 8.

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

You don't need OTA RootKeeper to get VOD while rooted. All you have to do is rename "su" to "su2" in system/bin directory.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
True, but get serious. With the app, you press a button and it is done for you. Without it, you have to physically go to the location and rename the file. Then when you want to use an app that needs root, you have to physically go and rename it back.

With the app, you just press a button and it does that for you without any mistakes much faster.

With the exception of VOD, I don't know of anything else that doesn't work when you are rooted (su showing). I normally just run with root on since I have other apps that require root to do their thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elfarto:
Looks like the NG Contacts / CallerID matching code is broken.

I can't get the CallerID numbers to match my contacts.

This is Argentina, all my contacts are stored like +54AAANNNNNNNN, it used to work on all my previous Android phones so i don't know what's going on

I tried modifying ro.phone.min_match on /system/build.prop without any effect.

Any clues ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elfarto:
Update:

If i store the numbers as +54 AAA NNNN-NNNN, Then i get the Contact names, but all SMSs will automatically stop matching the Contacts.

If i store the numbers as +54 9 AAA NNNN-NNNN. (That's the format the carriers here send the From phone number on SMSs), then SMSs will match but not calls.

I tried using Prefixer but it doesn't seem to work at all.

This has not been a problem on my previous Android phone, a Samsung i550 running GingerBread and previously Froyo.

Sounds like we need a setting to tell Android ICS to match just X digits out of the CallerID string just like Windows Mobile has.

Adding both numbers to each contact is not practical when you have 500+ contacts.

[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
No way to fix it without formatting the SD card, and since you seem to be on Windows, odds are that you're going to loose the read/write access one way or another as the kernel doesn't support NTFS, and Windows doesn't support ext2/3/4

No, that's not why people are "saying it's delayed". It is delayed. It was scheduled for sale this coming Friday (confirmed multiple times with 2 local stores this week), and now it's been delayed indefinitely (confirmed multiple times by multiple stores today by myself). All of them said they received an email from corporate today telling them not to sell the phone.

What a horrible botch of the launch.

Awesome. Pretty big loss if they proceed not to sell. Pretty big head ache for me as I'll be in limbo Friday.

Sounds like Verizon and Google should have never been in bed together in the first place.

I don't really care about GWallet but they shouldn't be able to block access to a competing technology... especially if its the maker of the device they're selling.

But I guess this isn't too different from disabling built-in tethering yet offer a tethering app you can buy for $30. Or removing Google Apps for Yahoo.
