Sounds lije the phone was stolen from tmobile
[HTC Radar] CuseSniper:
Buyer Beware: Of Craigslist anyways!

I agree with twiz_... Sounds like you bought a device stolen from the T-Mobile store (aka. a dedicated demo phone). They're pre-programed to run/loop in demo mode.

May be re-flashable, but I doubt it.

That sucks----no way

Yea, i work at t-mobile... i got the demo at my store and tried taking the video loop off... i tried every "ROM" on the forum, nothing works.... unless you contact t-mobile and get them to MAYBE send you the right files, your phone is good as a DEMO....

i would def suggest always check the about phone in settings when you are buying a phone. it usually tells you demo or not.

GOOD LUCK THO!!!!!

You can always go through Asurion and just pay the deductible, assuming you have insurance on your line. They will allow you to do claims on stolen demo phones.

I'm also a tmobile employee and I found it about this when I had a customer that had a phone that had some defective hardware and our tech care couldn't process a warranty exchange but advised customer to go through Asurion.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS THIS

hard reset your devices let it turn off by itself

when it turns on

take the battery out

put the battery back in

PRES VOLUME DOWN AND POWER

till you get the bootloader

connect the device to your computer using usb cable

run the ruu with the tmobile software

let do its thing

Hi,

Is there any safe way to go back to 2.2 from 2.3?

I tried to copy all old files in /image, replaced recovery.img with the one from CWM for 2.2, but still cannot boot into CWM.

You have done a good job mate but I don't like it. It's a bit tacky, if you have the skills to do that though, you can make one that looks cool, I am not criticizing your work, it is just not for me. I would want somthing that looks modern and metalicy if you know what I mean, somthing that goes with the flashy futuristic look of my tab. And again, good work' I couldn't do that :-P. It just doesn't apeal to me. Hope you continue and make a really cool looking one :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Tivo7:
This was just to help b00sted out. I'm working on my own Ninja theme at the moment. But if you really want, I could make a more futuristic looking christmas lockscreen when I get around to it.

Actually, at a second glance, the lockscreen that comes with the theme is pretty futuristic looking. You could just keep that.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] beta546:
I love the colours of the theme, just not the lock screen. Can you make lock screens that can just be flashed over any theme? I had a cool idea, probably wouldn't be possible, as I don't know what kind of animation can be used on the lock circle. Have you ever seen stargate? How cool would it be to have the lock ring as the stargate and as you press it the gate opens, and the actual center of the ring that you drag to unlock could just be a little star or somthing. Probably not possible but would be great lol. If you haven't heard of stargate just search google or youtube for a vid of the gate opening, then you know what I mean :-)

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Tivo7:
I'm pretty sure its impossible to make a lockscreen mod that can be flashed over any theme because the location of the files that you need to mod is in the middle of all other framework files. You have to manually overwrite the lockscreen files for each theme you want them on.

I'm pretty sure it would be possible to make the stargate thing you want, but it requires HEAVY xml editing and rearranging because it deals with how the tablet acts and that is WAYY out of my league.

Hello all

this is my very first post on XDA but i got a question:

I got my vivid (black) last week and i noticed today that when you make calls there is a red light right next to the AT&T logo (left side of the AT&T logo) under the ear piece. this red light only comes on when you are calling someone. what is that light for?

this light is really hard to see in light so you should turn off the lights in your room (go in a dark place) and place a call, you should see a red light start to flash, it is very low!

i placed a call and noticed the red light started to blink rapidly? does this happen to your vivid also? what is this light for??

Thanks!!

I have a question:

I am using the Tezet's ROM with the Endless7's MOD, but I don't like some apps that comes with it, as the Launcher, the Messaging, the Dialer and Contacts.

I replaced all of the cited applications to the Go Apps. I removed from the ROM the ADW with Titanium Backup, but the others (Messaging, Contacts and Dialer) can I remove in the same way?

Thanks in advance.

I removed the application "Telephone" with Titanium Backup, after I have already installed GoDialer. But the phone was no network. This procedure you mentioned would change the outcome?

No, but it would be a simple rename back to the original to get the phone working. Now you have to restore with Titanium Backup. Same process, different way of doing it. :)

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jb0ne:
My new Samsung Galaxy S 4G has, to my understanding 1G ROM for system use, 512MB RAM for apps to run in, and an 8GB SD Card for storage.

I'm not understanding something about the setup though. The main question is I go to Task Manager, then RAM, and I usually am using about 250mb -- out of 323MB. 323mb?? Where the hell is the rest of my RAM?

Also when I install an app that can't install to the SD card for whatever reason, where the hell is it going? into my 512RAM? Into my ROM? When I click the Storage Tab, it says Internal Phone Storage 452MB/514MB. External SD Card 1.56GB/7.39GB.

So I'm assuming the ROM has a hidden section for the system, and leaves 514MB for phone apps.

I guess I'm mainly wondering why I only have 323MB to run things in. I have been having problems with it running slow, or randomly rebooting the main interface (then it re-reads the SD cards which takes a minute). This is with just a few apps open; say, Doubletwist playing a podcast and Navigator guiding me somewhere.

I did update to 2.3.6 when that came out and it actually made my phone quite a bit zippier. I've rooted, and I use Titanium Backup to get rid of a bunch of junk that Tmobile put on there. But there's still things running that I don't want taking RAM, but don't want to get rid of. QIK for example likes to have a service running, as does facebook. I like to use Qik sometimes facebook on occasion, and I just want to start the app those times, not have it running all the time. Telenav GPS has a service running all the time too. I'd like to use that app sometimes, but don't want it in my RAM until that time -- why the service? Oh and in Services (through Settings->Applications->Running Services it says at the bottom RAM 165MB used 101MB free. What RAM is this referring to anyway?

Please someone help me understand how RAM works on this thing. I'm totally new to Android, just came over from using an iphone for years so this is all new.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] IDisposable:
The main reason you see only 323MB of RAM is that the rest is dedicated to memory-mapped devices link the video card. That lovely screen needs backing memory.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
^ In the i897ucKF1 leaked Firmware .rar download, there is an Odin DL Creator that u can use to make One Click Downloaders. There are Manuals included in there as well, but unfortunately they got corrupted somewhere along the way and I could never find a way to open and read them. But the process to build the One Click was still easy enough to figure out.

Run the DLCreator v1.8 then choose the Downloader tab and then navigate to where this Creator file is and select the Odin3Execution v1.81 and then simply proceed down the tabs loading the files, select the Options u want (re-partition, auto reboot) and then select the File Name, then Downloader Title. After that is done select the Make Downloader tab.

Now I did encounter freezes/force closes (if u will) with the Creator, but I would just simply have to start over and then it would work. The i897ucKF1 firmware, u can get from here... http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=306 (u will probably have to register and log in)

Use an Archiver (IZArc, 7zip, etc.) and extract the .tar out of the .rar that u downloaded. Then click on the name of the .tar.md5 to rename it and simply delete the .md5 from the name. Select yes to make the change. Open the .tar and then u will see the files. Bootloaders are of course the boot.bin and sbl.bin files (they r in the main.tar file. Think it was named Code something blah blah). Drag them to desktop to keep in a seperate file and then just delete them out of the .tar file. The param.lfs of course contains the initial bootslash jpeg image. And etc., etc.

Also, just fyi, this was a full wipe leaked firmware. --> (Edit: the KF1 was a full wipe, all others since have only wiped /cache after the install. And the other leaks since KF1 have only been in single .tar file, where as the kf1 was in 3 different .tar files)

So with all the U.S. Carriers either severely limiting or capping Data on their phone/tablet plans(only a matter time for sprint too) why all the focus on cloud based services like google music/ iCloud etc. I would think that these 2 are in direct opposition to each other. I am currently on Sprint and enjoying the unlimited data but not holding breath on it staying around forever. I use Google Music and Netflix/Hulu+ as well as Pandora. I have a premium account where possible and have used others in the past like rhapsody and spotify. What incentive do I have to keep using these services if my data is limited. I see very little point to using them if I have to "triage" my data usage based upon priority. For reference I typically use 4-6gb a month on my sprint account and no I don't tether, I have a Time Warner Cable connection at home rated at 30+MBPS.

Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.

Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.
[Networking] Longcat14:
The thing is, that technologies like HSPA+ and EV-DO can't handle the amount of data that is pushed through them, that's why Verizon and AT&T are going to LTE, because it CAN handle the amount of data they push now, and more, which is why they give you such high speeds, because it can handle it.

As time progresses, and carriers realize that Unlimited data can easily be offered, they'll switch back to that.
[Networking] ktt4510:
I don't know. I would like to think that way but corporations have repeatedly shown that they will do anything they can to get us to pay more. I don't see them offering unlimited data regardless of the network's capability. It frustrates me to no end to try to get someone on an android phone to use any of the cloud services from drop box to Google docs and music and then realizing they are not on a data plan that allows for what is in my opinion one of the major benefits of the platform.

I own a Nexus S and I think I am one of the very few I have seen or talked to that has no problem with only 16gb storage, the cloud negates the need for a massive memory card but the data limitations on carriers trump that.

I have no illusions of my Sprint plan staying unlimited much longer either and once it is gone I am gonna to adjust my android experience to accomodate and use it in a way that I am forced to, not the way I prefer.
[Networking] Longcat14:
Just give it time. Eventually the FCC will sue the carriers. That will be a fun day. :)
