needless to say, that's the thing i hate the most about the D3O cases, they are too slippery

it was a heavy rainy day today, pool of water everywhere

...and well, getting off the car the phone went phrlum! and i was like :eek: OMG!!!!!!

I think i shouted holy F***! unconsciously and was pretty loud as all the people in the shopping plaza parking lot was looking my way :p

i guess the whole think too about a couple of seconds, as i picked it up right away, but i went deep, the screen was facing me as it dropped, so i saw i sunk like the titanic, and water covering the screen... at that point i was like... oh shiate! gonna have to take it apart to let it dry :(

but to my disbelief i rescued it from its waterly doom, and loh'& behold it was still live and kicking, damn mud dirty though, but after cleaning it up, i was able to confirm all the features are still working fine.

and the screen protector just made itself worth the money..

at first i though the water damage caused a dead pixel, as there was tiny speck that would not go away no matter how i cleaned it, was ready for the worse, thinking 1 dead LED is nominal vs the idea of having to replace the whole screen if the water did really make its way to the innars

well thankfully in the end i tried removing the screen protector and taaaa daaaa that nasty spot is gone too

whatever it was it must have hit something hard when it landed in the water, it did bounce 5 times in the puddle pavement before landing still.

anyways, right now i left it sitting on top of my super heated i7 for it to dry over night

all i7 CPUs even at iddle temp hover around 50c :rolleyes: i always put stuff i need to dry quickly on top of my PC :p :D

Glad to hear the beast is unscathed.

I7 is cool but i would try rice trick if it was me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bbobarino:
Should of put in raw rice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jangst123:
Dam that had to make for an insane day!

I agree I recommend the rice trick! Maybe even combine the 2 just to be on the safe side!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heinrich:
Dodged a bullet there Dude. Cheers. I did a similar thing. Put my phone by the sink. H sh1t!!! There was an invisible puddle. Was wet in all sorts of places. Removed the battery and properly dried it. Thanked God approprietately as it is fine :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TheMrRoxtar:
What's the rice trick?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] grenademasta:
The rice trick is a way to get the rice absorb the moisture out of the phone . Fill up a small container filled with rice. Put the phone inside the rice. Leave it there for about a day and the rice will absorb the moisture out of the phone. Also, the moisture indicator stickers inside the phone (battery compartment) and the battery will turn from white to pink once it gets in contact with water. This will void your warranty unless you bought an optional warranty that covers water damage.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
yeah man, that was a close one yesterday.

i literally saw my life flash in front of me for a split second there :p

in that transient state, i though about business contacts, documents, family contacts, photos, water seal prof, no warranty, repair cost, etc, etc

pretty much everything that i was going to "lose" if the phone did die

i'm glad i didn't have to experience any of that, and as for all my data, they are all backed up automatically to my gmail account, so i wouldn't really lose anything, just a normal reaction, or more like the annoyance of having to restore all the data manually
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] doug36:
****ty :/ I got the ballistics, its got pretty damn good grip & same thing, besides usb port & 3.5mm jack its basicly sealed in there, even spilt pop on it enough to have a "pool" on the screen & it couldn't even get under the lip of the case xD

Never got it submerged tho xD glad its at least still workin for ye :D

& ye I can confirm the i7 heat xD I can't leave my PC on for more then a few hours, got it in the basement & I could literally use it as a space heater xD

I even got a fullsize HAF case & got a heatsync that holds 2 huge ass fans & 3 of the same size fans on the case, me thinks its the 1200w PSU & maybe my GPU xD

I still say my Phenom 965 build OC ~4.2 ghz with 8gb ram (can't buy 4gb sticks here, only 2 & donno a good reliable wholesaler with online purchasing)

Can kick my i7s @$$, the i7 is better for compiling huge projects, or even transcoding 2 DVD (eg: 2hr film to DVD is ~15min in nero 10)

But gaming was honestly about the same, if better in the sence of pure FPS, on the phenom, even played crysis maxed out (set to very high, exited & installed sh!t like real lifesys, & heavily customized), on 3 monitors @ 1080p (2x GTX 465 (ul470)) , that beast tanked everything, but finding wallpapers was a b!tch xD lol

Temped to go back just cuz the heat, its in my unused tower atm :p

Sorry for goin off-topic alil lol

Have u tryed underclocking? I'm tempted to go for hydrocooling but don't gut funds atm, & UC isn't & option for me I wish I could OC but my Intel's history says otherwise xD

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjr162:
Went to install an app and noticed my number is wrong. I actually just now remember YouMail would have the wrong phone number for my default login as well.

So somehow when my sim card was setup, they missed a digit. Ive read the iphone is able to write a # to the sim card as can some other phones (though not all write it in a way the galaxy s can use it i guess?).

So my question is is there a hidden dialer code or app or anything im able to use to change the number, or does this have to be done OTA by the carrier or in one of their stores? Im hoping im able to just do this myself and get it done with.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mawdo:
The only rom which you have the possibility to change your number is CM7/miui , but somsung roms don't give you that options , with cm7 you can go into setting - calls - advance setting , then you will see your phone number options;)

[Kindle Fire General] golym:
it is very hard when i want to change the volume while in cm7.

so now i call a volume ctrl app while long press "search" button.

but it is still not convenient

so I think it can put the buttons to the status bar.like cm7's tweak .

but i don't know how to achieve it.....
[Kindle Fire General] asatnik11:
Search for "volume control" from "rubberbigpepper" on the market. This adds a volume slider to the right side of the screen :D

In the original post of the Eclipse thread it does say that it will split them after 160 characters.

Oh ok thanks. Didn't notice that. I've looked and I suppose there is no setting for that.

[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Has anyone even tried switching the mms.apk from an older version?

Just rename the current one to .bak and push the old one to /system and reboot.

If it don't work just undo it ...worth a shot

Open the mms settings and change it back.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Muezak:
Not sure. Have all three working on my tablet.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jtbnet:
You must have side loaded too as Only Seasons thinks it's compatible...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] HMG10:
So I suppose I have to pull them off of another side and install them for the market to realize that I can run them?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] magius:
That's pretty much what I did and they work fine. I'm still not sure if the apps will update though after being sideloaded. I mean will the market ignore the fact that they are installed just because it thinks they are not compatible?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] HMG10:
I am also interested in this answer.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Anxiyz:
Seems that the ad free versions found in the Amazon appstore show up for purchase / download.

If you sideload an application you own on Android Market, and it should update as mentioned in other threads addressing sideloaded apps

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladdangel:
Hi, new here and I have a question:

I broke the screen on my Cappy and just got a replacement. The thing is, I hadn't moved all my pictures and movies (and various other things) to the external SD card. I've been searching for a way to retrieve them and it doesn't seem to look good.

I've tried on 2 other phones to get into CWM and mount the USB storage from there (Since hard keys are my only option) and it didn't work there (same model and mod) or when I tried on the bricked phone (6 menu options down, 2 up to mount sd card).

The question is this:

How can I through some way get all this data downloaded to my PC? Boot loader, download mode, recovery... I know just enough to do what I need to do to mod my phone, but not enough to know how to do this.

Any help would be appreciated! You guys have helped me so much by your informative posts I would be humbled for you to help me specifically.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Install adb

If you had usb debugging enabled you cab just boot up, if not recovery will communicate with adb regardless.

Adb pull /mnt/sdcard (where ever you want it to go on your PC)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladdangel:
The following happens when I try:

C:\> adb pull /mnt/sdcard c:/sd/

pull: building file list...

pull: /mnt/sdcard/lost.dir/28 -> c:/sd/lost.dir/28

cannot create 'c:\sd\lost.dir/28': No such file or directory

Nevermind. It should have been:

C:\> adb pull /mnt/sdcard c:\sd\
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
In windows, file locations use back slashes. you're telling it to go to c:/sd/

Should be c:\sd and no final backslash.

It looks like the media scanner(?) is causing a soft-reboot loop whenever I have the sd card installed or mounted. At first I thought the SD card was corrupted, but I've already tried a new SD card and gotten the same result. I've also cleared data/cache/davlik and reflashed the ROM but the issue remains.

Currently on Calkulin E4GT v2.5 but started having the issue a week ago on v2.0 and 2.0.1a; would like to avoid going back to stock -- but I think the issue is there as well. Only thing I've found related to this issue was at: community.sprint.com/baw/message/363439#363439

Basically media scanner will run, app icons will reappear, then the screen will flash off, bottom keys will illuminate, and the phone will flash back on with no signal and media scanner running again (repeat until I get frustrated and unmount the SD card or power it off and physicall remove the SD card). Has anyone encountered this issue or found a solution for it?
