It could be a phone problem, but it sounds to me like there is (or was) something running in the background that was causing drain. Any app that grabs the GPS and doesn't let it go could potentially cause this. Facebook is an occasional offender for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kingofyo1:
are you using the official fb app? and I had gps turned on for a bit last night, but cant remember if it was on during this time. Since that happened, it has been off, along with wifi

EDIT: Asurion just called back and one of the ladies in the asurion client relations dept will be overnighting me a NIB charge. We will see what happens with this. Had nothing but problems with em so far, so I expect something to happen to the new one as well. We'll see though lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] charlie_c:
Have you had an app cause overheating like that with the screen off? The only time I've had my phone get really hot was when I was oc'ed, with the screen on and sitting in the sun for an extended period while I was using navigation.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
My phone heats up with the screen off if i have no service.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kingofyo1:
I'm talking excessive heat though, not just warm, but blazing hot to the touch.. Around 160f temperatures
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I am using the official app, though I haven't had the new one long enough to really make any observations of it. It was hit and miss. But, no, I can't say that I've seen temps like that, ever, except maybe once or twice when running in a car dock, in the windshield on a hot day.

Hello all swype lovers!

Since I bought my Motorola Milesone 2 (aka Droid 2) I'm wondering is that possible to use Swype dictionary while typing on hardware keyboard?

I know that there are some counterparts like slide it keyboard etc. but I really get used to swype and sometimes when I can't use both hands to type on physical keyboard I use virtual method.

I add this thread here because this problem concerns to all android devices with physical keyboard, not just milestone 2 :)

Any ideas?;>

Hey everyone!

I am sorry if this has been answered earlier, but I couldn't find it.

I really miss autofocus functionality in video camera... Is there any fix/app to have continuous autofocus in video camera??

I am using stock rom 2.3.6 (not rooted) on Galaxy S Plus.....

Another question...

Will rooting void warranty here in india?

Thanks :-)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintel_mac:
I don't know if there is any option for that.

But you are able to zoom during recording with pinch to zoom.

I don't know if any adjustment is being made during zooming, this might be a workaround if it is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acdindia:
Hey friend!

Autofocus isn't related to zoom.... Its something related to optics where lens adjusts itself to bring things into focus.....

Autofocus is available in still camera mode but missing in video camera....

Many other phones have this (even cheaper Wildfire S)....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintel_mac:
Yes. I know what autofocus is :-)

I thought there might be a possibility to trigger it although it is not active during a normal recording.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lukiqq:
Guys... i9001 is using exactly the same camera sensor as i9000 - ce147 from NEC. The only difference is its driver in kernel and fw [libcamera.so] (but that shouldn't count in the case of continous AF), and finally camera firmware which is located in /system/firmware. You can try to replace files in that directory with those from the most recent i9000 fw and update them with command: *#*#34971539#*#* and choosing "Phone to CAM FW Write" option. After that continous AF function should work ;) If not, replace Camera.apk from i9000 too.

Good luck!

EDIT:

Latest i9000 camera firmware files are now attached to this post. You may try to push them to your device and flash camera firmware with command: *#*#34971539#*#* and choosing "Phone to CAM FW Write" option.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lukiqq:
If you have no root privileges, you will not have access to the system folder, so replacing existing files is impossible.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lukiqq:
Try with Camera.apk from i9000 (attached modified version with af shot with power button, no low power notification and camcorder shortcut in menu). If that fail too then replace libcamera.so (attached) in /system/lib directory. If all fails then ask someone from i9001 kernel devs to replace kernel camera driver (ce147.c and ce147.h) with files from i9000 sources.

Hey! It looks like autofocus is working for you... but it will be clearer if you could use two subjects, one macro and one at normal distance from the cam.... first try to focus on the normal distance subject then come to the macro subject, and again back to the other subject..

If cam is able to focus on both the subjects simultaneously, it will prove that you are the lucky one.. ;)

Alternatively, install LGCamera from the market, and use the included LGCamcorder, and tick "Force Autofocus Before Capture". It should change focus during recording when moving closer/further.

HEHE, Both phones share 98% similarities
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsI9003:
These video show that you dont understand how autofocus works.

Contrast detection is used in samsung phone so if the contrast is low or shooting in low light then you will have slow focusing where as in high contrast it will be working fine.

After looking 1st video your contrast is too low & moreover you are taking the camera too close, you need macro mode to be used.

2nd video proves that auto focus is working fine but when you focus on indoor wall (right side) it fails to focus again due to low contrast.

So in nutshell I can say the auto focus is working fine, I had similar problems reported for i9003 phones but auto focus was not the problem. I shoot lots of view with my phone & never face problem unless I am in low contrast lighting.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wintel_mac:
Unfortunately not. They use different filesystems (ReiserFS vs EXT4), a completely different CPU and GPU.

So I would not call that 98% similar.

Hello. I just tried to unlock the bootloader on on Verizon Galaxy nexus. Now it's stuck at the bootscreen with the lock image. I did a search and couldn't find a exact answer for my issue. I hope I haven't bricked my phone. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

I wasn't trying to root just unlock the bootloader. It appeared everything went ok but, now I'm stuck. I used the same method for unlocking the bootloader on my GSM G-nex and it worked.

I know I've done something wrong or this may be something simple. I just need help so I can use my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
are you able to boot into the bootloader? if so you should be able to recover and can't worry a little less.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeoMagus:
same thing here... I posted a request for a LTE boot.img since can still get into the bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
No I don't believe I can. When I type fastboot it just says "waiting on device" I can hold the volume down & power buttons and get to the screen were it says "start" at the top and below that "downloding"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
Yea, that was what I was eluding too, The device just came out and google released the GSM image. I am sure that it will appear online in the near future.

if you are able to get into the bootloader does it say that its unlocked ? is your google splash screen showing the unlocked padlock ? you could also try fastboot flash recovery to get cwm on there and provide additional potential solutions.

---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

That is download mode used for odin.

hold BOTH volumn buttons and power to get into the bootloader/fastboot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
Yeah, when I did the procedure it said that it was unlocked. Everything looked ok , it booted show the unlock symbol under Google. It then went to the colorful animation and was stuck there. At that time I pulled the battery and, it's been stuck at the screen showing google and the unlock image.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
you should have let the animation run for like 10 minutes the phone has to rebuild the first boot can take like 15 minutes sometimes.

try booting into the bootloader see if that works still
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
Sorry I wasn't paying attention and didn't read the part were you told me how to get to the fastboot screen. I'm there now. Can I just relock or fix the bootloader from problem there? It shows it unlocked at the fastboot screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
you could try fastboot oem lock and see if that works but if the phone wasn't booting i don't know if that will fix it but worth a shot.

try it out and see. it shouldn't do any harm to try
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GirLuvsDroid:
I had the issue with the failure to boot up after doing the fastboot oem unlock (I had to use the pda net drivers to get my device recognized to get even that far). I did a lot of things like pulling the battery, locking again and then unlocking and nothing worked until I went here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11732-galaxy-nexus-root-procedure-adb-method/, then downloaded the files following their directions and doing the fastboot boot boot.img command. It took a LONG time to boot up, but it did boot finally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
Thank you, I'll try that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
I have another question. One of the selections on the fastboot screen is recovery mode. Can I try that or is this something were you have to have a rom stored on a sd-card?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
you could download the recovery image from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1392336

then when connected in fast boot flash it with

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

(rename the file from the linked thread to recovery.img)

this should write your custom recovery partition.

once you have that though you are still not going to be able to boot but it would allow you to flash a nandroid backup if someone made one for you or a LTE based rom

EDIT: you could also try a factory data reset and wipe dalvk cache from withing cwm. that may fix your boot problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mixedlemon:
I had this problem, too.

I downloaded Clockwork Recovery and used 'fastboot boot LTErecovery_cwr.img' to boot into it, I wiped data and cache / factory reset and then rebooted. It rebooted twice, but after ten minutes or so I was back to the ICS Welcome screen. All of the files I'd put on my internal storage were wiped (during the oem unlock, I assume) but I'm in the stock rom but Superuser was installed and I have root access.

Hope it helps.

EDIT: looks like this is the same thing Goat_For_Sale posted above, but his command flashes CWM where mine temporarily boots into it. Since most of us will be installing CWM anyway I'd recommend using his command instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
where did you get the lterecovery_cwr.img ? could you link to it please
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mixedlemon:
I linked to the thread in my post, but here's a link to the mediafire upload from that thread: http://www.mediafire.com/?mdf0mtacskob5yg
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Goat_For_Sale:
Thanks, my bad I didn't realize you were refering to the recovery image, thought it was the boot image for the LTE device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mixedlemon:
Ahh no problem.

I got pretty worried for a second that I'd already broke my shiny new Nexus, so I'm really hoping I can help out someone else that had the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
Solved

I believe it's fixed now. I use the method that GirLuvsDroid posted from the Rootzwiki forum. Once it rebooted, I stopped there and didn't root the phone. I was just happy to get it booted.

It's downloading all my apps and settings now. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me, I really appreciate. This was a good learning experience for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] themoleculoman1:
So you were just able to go through the Rootzwiki method? Were you stuck at "Downloading...Do not turn off target !!" screen when you went to boot screen originally? My device still can't be detected :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] caddman:
I'm stuck in the bootloop too, can I flash one of petes Software Images.. How would I do that from bootloader? Or rom? This is killing me, my new phone is useless right now..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
No, I wasn't initially stuck at that screen. I went to that screen after I pulled the battery and incorrectly pressed the volume down/power button.

I was stuck at the Google boot screen with the unlock image after I unlocked the bootloader. It just kept vibrating and trying to boot.

I had downloaed the Android sdk a while ago and, used that to unlock the bootloader on my GSM Galaxy Nexus. When I tried it on the Verizon version I ran into the problem. I think it may have been a driver issue but, I'm not sure.

The rootwiki method helped me. It took awhile to boot initally but, after that it's been back to normal.

When I first did the bootloader unlock, It took awhile to get off the boot animation screen so I pulled the battery thinking something was wrong. I believe if I would have just left it alone the first time, it may have been ok.

Edit: Now the Rootwiki page is saying the boot.img is putting people's phone in a bootloop. I would be careful. It worked for me but, I didn't go all the way and root my phone. I guess people are having issues with it now. After my phone booted back up to the normal setup screen, I stopped and didn't enter any more of the other commands.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] caddman:
Am I screwed, is that why I'm not getting a response...
