Hi,

No, I haven't noticed any lag using Sipdroid+GV+pbxes.com on my SGP5. The only thing I've found is that I think it won't go into speakerphone mode on the SGP5. Works fine holding the SGP5 up to your ear, like a "real" phone :).

I haven't tried it with the earbuds (suppose to have a mic on them already) or with a Bluetooth headset yet.

FYI, I downloaded the talkatone APK. It installed ok on my SGP5, and at first I couldn't call out. But I changed the compression to "none WIFI" and I think it worked ok after that.

However, whenever I pressed the "Speakerphone" icon, the talkatone app would FC, so it looks like they have some work to do (I know it's an "alpha"). I've uninstalled it from my SGP5 for now, since Sipdroid seems to work ok, plus the talkatone app puts up a ton of ads while it's running (like a new ad every couple of seconds?).

Later,

Jim

I find GrooveIP works pretty good, but will try Talkatone, thanks! Texting GV for sure.

edit: Trying Talkatone, not nearly as good UI as GrooveIP (no access to Google favorites, no contact pix), does seem to make calls fine. Speakerphone crashes app. Sticking with GrooveIP for now, until they officially release this thing.

I had Boat Mini as my browser for a year on my phone, but jus switched to Dolphin HD on my 5.0, very nice, especially the RSS section (Webzine). I have now eliminated Pulse because of it.

I really like the built in calendar, use Smooth Calendar Widget with it.

Don't listen to music a lot, but find Google Music nice (use it on my PC at home and work). For off-line I use Cubed, very nice UI and widgets, here'sthe link, it's hard to search for: http://www.appbrain.com/app/³/org.abrantix.rockon.rockonnggl

FX File EXplorer is great unrooted, but since I have File Expert on my phone, I'm using it on my 5.0, love this theme:http://www.appbrain.com/app/file-expert-dream-bubble-theme/com.geek.filexpert.theme7 My ONLY issue with it is it does allow reverse sorting (by date ends up newest last, which sux), but favorites pretty much solved that.

+1 Swype.

Like Any.DO for lists/google tasks sync.

Like Jango for radio/streaming favorites.

Like BMW and PowerTudor for pinpointing power issues.

Like this for weather (only beacuse it was a free Amazon app).

Like this for screenshots (at least for the 1st 14).

Like this for putting different pictures on screens.

And GO Launcher, Dropbox, Quickpic, and K9 are all better than stock.

First, I think we need separate threads for some of these since there could probably be entire discussions on each. Just a thought. And thanks to Bruno for starting this one.

I've just installed groove IP and tried it out a little. There is a lag plus folks on the other end report bad call quality. I have not played with the settings at all yet. Hope to do that tonight. I'll look at Talkatone once it hits beta or so. Going to look into Jim's solution tonight too as that sounds interesting.

If there are any folks who have been through the Groove IP setup on the YP-G70 already I'd appreciate hearing how your settings ended up!!

If you're willing to give up the cloud-acceleration try Opera Mobile instead of Mini: it has good compatibility and Flash support, while still being pretty fast, so it doesn't lose any features from the default browser, making it an excellent alternative.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mrktmind:
Thanks tcat. I'll try those setting tomorrow.

With regards to which browser I know that the Dolphin browser was very popular but was found to be tracking your surfing and phoning home - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1319529&page=31

In the above thread the Boat Browser seems to be the only privacy safe browser on Android. I am trying the Firefox browser right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] xxBrun0xx:
Hey, just an update on this a few months later: Returned the galaxy player and got myself an optimus V from Virgin Mobile and WOW. Having internet everywhere was awesome :) Then I upgraded to a Triumph, and soon I'll be on Straight Talk (AT&T) using a Droid Razr. I traded my Ipod Touch straight up for the Triumph and it was basically brand new. Also, don't even want to tell you how cheap the razr was. Craigslist rocks. After playing with true phones, I can't honestly recommend the galaxy player 5 to anyone. It's simply too much money. You could pay a little more and get a galaxy nexus, which blows the player 5 out of the water in terms of specs, and if you decide you want a data plan, you can buy a sim card from straight talk and just use it for that, no monkeying around with voip apps. It costs more, but it is absolutely worth every penny, imo.

Can i use GrooveIP in Europe for free?or is calling only for USA numbers free?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Chris4evernoob:
Is there an app for international calling? From outside US or Canada to outside.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] tcat007:
I did the opposite, went from an Optimus-V to the Player5.0, and use my V only about once per month. Now there are rumors that HTC 3D is coming to VM, if so I'll buy it. I don't like carrying 2 devices, and having data 24/7 is a big plus. I do have wifi at home and work, so the Galaxy is really all I need. GrooveIP works for me 90% of the time (since I get no cell signal at home, it's a must). But the 4.3" screen of the HTC at a much higher resolution will cause me to get rid of this wonderful Player to help pay for the HTC.... my grandfathered $25 unlimited is a deal that's hard to get rid of.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mrktmind:
@tcat007 Another solution that might help would be to try either Wifi Ruler or WiFi Jumper apps. These apps make your YP-G70 auto-connect to the nearest best wifi signal without any interaction just like a cell phone auto connects to the nearest cell tower.

Haven't tried them extensively yet but I'm thinking they will help bridge the gap between wifi phone and cell phone.

After trying all the apps in this thread, I've found SIPdroid+pbxes works best for me. Audio delay is the smallest out of all of them, even though the interface isn't as pretty.

1) Unlock bootloader via HTCDev or Xboarder's tool

2) Get root.

3) Install recovery.

4) profit?

Just confirming before I commit to it. Thanks all.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Nope.

Unlock bootloader.

Install custom recovery then flash SuperUser zip file for root or just flash your custom ROM.

Hello,

I constantly get disconnected from my conversations. Sometimes I can't hear the caller and then after about 5-10 seconds I can here the caller again. Sometimes I'm simply disconnected after est. 10 or 30-40 minutes. The network shouldn't be the problem: I have o2 and the caller also o2. The caller doesn't have problems while talking to others.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Bayton:
Unlike most who complain the mobile data is on and sucking up battery, my tablet will be running through the day and only have the odd hour of cell data on here, 20 mins there. What is up with that? Should it not either be on or off?

I want to keep airplane mode on, but it completely takes over the lockscreen.

Tia!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
If you searched you'd find your answer, it has been discussed before.

The on/off in the settings is either allowing or disallowing a PDP session to be used, it does not turn of the GSM radio, remember you essentially have a big phone so it behaves like one and stays active and registered awaiting use for voice/SMS/MMS.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Bayton:
I did search, and from what I read, the radio was on all day sucking up battery. With mine, it is intermittent and I don't know what is triggering it.

I have a wifi flyer btw, so can't understand why I see anything at all.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t0upas:
Hi,

Yesterday night my SGS stopped responding and I tried to reboot it by removing the battery. unfortunelly the phone is not working anymore.

when this happened I had a 2.3.5 rom with semaphore 1.8 (default settings) that I flashed over a month ago.

What happens now is that the phone starts up, it takes around 3 minutes to start the boot animation. the boot animation video is doing 1 fps and the phone stays in the end of the boot animation.

Also in recovery the system is very slow (1 second lag navigating the menu and copying file to internal sd card is really slow - 500kb/s against the 15Mb/s that I normally get).

I've manage to install a stock 2.3.6 through odin but nothing changed.

I've also tried Ezbase with Ezodin but it didn't change anything also.

Then I tried cyanogenmod (7.1 stable) and I've got the speed back but the touchscreen does not work.

Does anyone have some tips to help me solve this issue? either the speed in custom roms or the touchscreen in cyanogenmod?

----edit-----

after 2 hours in the boot animation picture the stock rom reached the menus but the touchscreen is also not working.

Thanks in advance

I posted this in some other topic, maybe it will help you.

Flash this ROM (Its Froyo 2.2.1) using Odin:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/665428/AndroidWorld/Herstelbestanden/I9000XXJPU.zip

Make sure repartitioning is checked in Odin

PIT: s1_odin_20100512.pit

PDA: I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar.md5

PHONE: MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar.md5

CSC: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar.md5

Flash.

Now you're back at Froyo 2.2.1

Hopefully your back on speed.

If you need CWM recovery for that rom you can use speedmod K13E Kernel. Flash using Odin (make sure repartition is unchecked)

Put it in PDA

Flash

Hello, I have exactly the same problems.

I guess it's also touch error, I already changed it once and after the year and then started having problems as it was pressed alone, stuck all the time and stopped working. As I was reading and testing, I think I'll buy again the touch.

To be honest i haven't even updated anything but my modem however I have never really had any issues with overheating or los. The game issue was with a few games but the games i really enjoy don't have any problems.

Games such as brother in arms, dead space, backstab, and nova 2. So depends on what games she likes it maybe an issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] klyang88:
it has improved a lot. have not experienced any force closes since EG30 and Los. and the overheating doesnt happen unless ur watching or playing games for over 2-3 hours which every phone over heats. im currently on EL26 the latest build and to my opinion the battery improved. unplugged my phone at 7am to go to work ( texting/few calls and gaming) and came back at 6pm with 73% battery left.

[HTC Wildfire S] joshumax:
I was just wondering if you could run desire s roms on the wildfire s.

They look the same hardware-wise, would they be compatible without any modification, or are they similar enough to start porting. If so, are there any desire to wildfire porting manuals to give people like me a head start. :confused:
[HTC Wildfire S] nuuits:
I asked a similar question, and the answer I got was no to running Roms not made for your device.

basically, the hardware can be very similar but the buttons (and other hardware/software) are mapped differently. like, a rom for the GSM Wildfire S wouldn't work for the CDMA Wildfire S and vise versa...

I'm not technologically advanced so I can't give you specific examples, but I think you should play it safe and stick with roms for your specific device.

Porting, however, is most likely possible.

oh, and what rom are you looking to use/port and is your device CDMA or GSM? if it's CDMA I know of a few roms that I could link you to.
[HTC Wildfire S] joshumax:
It's cdma.

It's weird that it's so hard to find cdma roms when the cdma phones are the easiest to unlock.

Thanks for the hasty response.

I also have a SSRomClassic, but the dropbox link has to much traffic so it'd be useless to link to. It's basically a debloated version of stock Sense 2.1, but it's made for VM phones (although I'm sure it would work on other Marvelc models).

There's also Ginger LeanSense floating around somewhere. It's like SSRomClassic but for USCC phones I believe.

... and that's all I've found so far. I'm keeping an eye on the Wildfire S development section though.

Yeah I did, I have been ANXIOUSLY awaiting this thing since I first saw it, definitely worth it in my opinion. Not all of the features in the video are available YET (for the few things missing they are in the launcher, but they'll say "not available in this version" or something, meaning I think they're only an update or two away).

Basically the way I'm seeing it, is if you want something different, and you have the $17 to spare, I say go for it. If buying it means you'll have to go without lunch money for the next two weeks and you're completely satisfied with your current setup, I'd hold off until it's exactly what you see in the demo...then it will undoubtedly be worth $17 no matter what.

Just my 2 cents....or $17.
