Does anyone know a way we can petition Samsung to release the camera drivers?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jocala:
An effective way? Other than a general boycott of Samsung devices (aint gonna happen), there isn't one. Samsung is by no means the only company that plays these games. Correct me if I'm wrong, even the Nexus devices make use of closed binary blobs. It's general corporate philosophy that needs changing, not just one company.

Not a serious post don't take it seriously

This is not a serious post at all. Got bored for a second and felt like being silly:

A few questions.

*When is the camera going to be fixed? I need a camera and can't live life without taking photos of everything to upload to facebook/9gag etc

Does this play Doom?

How do I install .ipa's on this? I just came here from an iPhone and want to transfer my games.

I had to cut my sd card so it'd fit in the slot under the battery. How do I get the phone to recognize it? (I don't have a microSD or whatever card, I just trimmed the one from my camera.)

Thank you jocala for making a great phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
Please do not post here. Thank you

If you want to make general comments, feel free to post in the exhibit discussion thread. This is a dev thread so it will be nice if you can respect that.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] dennis96411:
* Camera will be fixed when it is fixed. No ETA.

* Yes it plays Doom, just set up the right emulator.

* .IPA is only for iOS. Android apps and games are packaged in .APK.

* To side load apps, put .APK files on your phone/memory card and use a file manager to open it.

* How do you trim an SD card into a microSD card? The metal contacts are too big.

* 4GB microSD cards are only around $3 on Amazon, don't be a cheapskate and expect your trimming method to be perfect.

Going a little off topic.

These the two red ones with the charger?

I got those right before I heard SickBeast about his bad experience with similar ones he bought in the past.

So far they are working great and seem to be lasting a bit longer. Now whether they are really 1950mah is really questionable.

Looking on Ebay you can get 1700mah, 1800mah and 1950mah batteries for this phone. I was going to get the 1800s but seen the 1950s for $5 more and the seller had great feedback. So I figured why not try em.

Either way two batteries and a wall charger is a nice deal. The build quality is decent. The batteries do seem larger than the 1500mah battery. However I think all theses ones on Ebay may be really 1650mah batteries as I heard Samsung released them for one of the Galaxy models.

So there may not be a difference from 1700mah-1950mah but you do get two longer lasting batteries and a wall changer with usb on the bottom. Not bad at all. However like all things you can get a bad pair and the return policy of the seller may differ depending on the seller you can have like 3 days to report if you get a bad pair and they will send a replacement or whatever.

However these two batteries and a charger are pretty good deals. Haven't checked if any other online retailer sells them. I'd look around if you are a bit worried on the replacement policy of some of the Ebay sellers.

Another option to consider is backup batteries. Like Monoprices 5000mah backup battery: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083110&p_id=9283&seq=1&format=2 or 3000mah: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083110&p_id=9282&seq=1&format=2

They have all kinds: http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=108&cp_id=10833#1083311 Monoprice is great they have excellent support service.

Anyways get a long usb cable. Keep the external battery in your pocket and stay juiced. Combine it with one of those longer lasting batteries above and never run outta juice. :P

On another topic. My headphone jack seems picky. I was at my Sisters and she had a 3.5mm adapter on her Stereo. I plugged my phone in and it kept cutting out? I did kinda notice this with my Headphones but rarely. So I did blow the jack with a can of air and it seems fine so maybe it was dirty. Still testing other connections and such. Hopefully I don't have to exchange the phone.

One last thing. Anyone get an OTG USB cable and play around with hooking things up like portable hard drives and such. Some of what you can do: http://cnettv.cnet.com/use-usb-devices-android/9742-1_53-50128175.html

As for the camera. Some of us like those barcode scan and price compare apps. :P

Back on topic I had an issue I found but it slipped my mind right now. So if I remember or find it again I will post it. So how is the bug squashing coming along for the next release?

Hey jocala have you looked at this thread lately?

They are just about done development on the camera they just need to work on video and audio.

Not the same hardware, but thanks for playing.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] kingdavidd:
I know that it is not the same hardware but they have been figuring out how to develop the drivers for ICS so we can do the same thing, also the camera progress we have now came from that thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] DJ_SpaRky:
My bad, thought it was another dwaggz special. :'(

Some good info there, sounds like Jocala might need to work with mirred to get it working. Thanks for that link.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] GraysonPeddie:
Sorry, but yours is a low quality post. Android is Android is Android. How are you suppose to translate from iPhone application to Android application if you are not a developer of an application? Get a miniSD card for your Exhibit phone. And please, no ETAs. Look in the very first post in the very first page of the thread.

Update: I'm a little late for submitting my post. Never mind.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] IRX120:
I noticed the batteries were bigger to. The wall charger says for Samsung galaxy S2 so many these are galaxy s2 batteries with a different sticker on them.

Both the 1800 and 1950 all ship from some logestics center in shenzen so it wouldn't supprise me

As for otg cables they seem cool. Maby there's one that ll work with our phone.

Also as for the camera,

To me it would seem as if you could just reverse engineer or decompile the camera libs and modify them to work with ICS. Isn't that kinda what the galaxy w people did?

Wow, is the sgh t679 USB otg compatible? Looks great!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] DCSlick:
LOL @ this guy. Are you serious? A: I am a dev just an iOS dev who has recently converted to Android. B: Again, chill out this is a forum not your living room. C: I'm bringing some humor to a currently stale thread. Not many updates right now as everyone is waiting on fixes, tweaking, getting ready for school, etc. So relax dude enjoy the comedy. Especially when I get serious responses back ;) and the not so serious ones. You don't patrol the internets. Get over yourself. That being said I hope your day is going well.

There's nothing ado about respect here. Relax and choose NOT to respond. You'll live longer (less stress).

As an aside, some of you need to fully read posts before responding. The pms were funny like the durdurr post (read detdett).

For those with battery issues, I've set my device up for performance and I use compression. Currently migrated to easyprofiles from tasker because I wanted to try another alternative. After an 8 hour shift at work I still have 71% battery. I'm indoors as I'm a manager at Wally world. I also use cf lumen with chainfire (not pro) ((yes I can show you how)). Smart Stay EX can be your friend if you set it up correctly. There, to the internet police there's your quality post. Can you sleep now?

I switched from iOS to android several months ago. My favorite part of android is that apps don't force close when they run out of ram. On my iPod touch browsing on safari almost always crashes when loading detailed web pages. And while iOS 6 seemed pretty stable I personally now prefer Android

Just wanted to let update everyone the battery problems I was having was due to me allowing the purge of assets.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Crow550:
I think the Galaxy S2 is the one with the official Samsung 1650mah battery? However the 1950mah could be legit as the S3 has a 2100mah battery too. I think people will be happy with getting any of those two battery and a charger pack. 1700mah-1950mah last I checked. Having a full extra battery on hand is nice. :D Just make sure you get it from reliable seller as you can always get a dud.

As for OTG I think it's just something with the Android OS in general so the cable should work. I ordered one to play with. A lot of various BT stuff works so I assume a lot of usb stuff would too.

We should try to stay on topic on helping find bugs on CM9. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] detdett:
cool themes!! how did you do those?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] arth_ur:
I do own a sgs2 and the original battery (6.11Wh ~ 1650mAh @ 3.7V), is different/does not fit the exhibit.

The charge/cables/handsfree are 100% compatible.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Crow550:
Maybe it was from a different model. Seen about it somewhere. *Shrugs*

You mean Exhibit II? Anyways I will try to find that info again on what Samsung model had a 1650mah battery that worked on the Exhibit II?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] fisheatdog:
I bought Hyperion 1600mAh batteries, not sure why I picked them over the 1950's I had seen for the same price. I don't think there would have been much of a difference, they usually last me the day (12 hours) so one charges while the other is in use.

Also, does any one else get a "external sd not mounted" error on the 704 release? (I know it really means the internal storage card, and the problem just started on these last two releases for me, I think it has to do with when I SuperWiped by internal storage). When i go to CWM to format /sdcard, it won't even mount there.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] DCSlick:
Cojelo...

"Relax". You too Jocala. It's not even close to a "waa,waa" thread. I don't use my camera when it works. THE POST WAS A JOKE. Not a veiled blah blah blah or a disguised anything. Lighten up, both of you. The thread was stale by any accounts. The posts weren't about the rom or development it was about battery. No one was contributing any new information. If you don't like to be criticized stay off the internet. It's full of criticism. But about the camera: I don't care when it's going to be fixed. I don't use it. Period. I'm no noob nor a kid who needs to update his fb constantly. I'm a 29 yr old guy who enjoys tinkering with his phone. The last pictures on my camera are from RebelRom days and even then I only took about 5 total. It's just not important. So relax, you and you and even you (guy who hasn't posted yet but is about to protect and defend jocala). You seriously need to evaluate life and what's wrong in yours if you can't lighten up and take a joke post and brush it off. I'm super serial. Man-bear-pig is super serial guys.

Wow Slick, the only protection anyone needs around here is from your stale sense of humor. Maybe you should examine your 29 year old ego for reasons why you feel the need to post your defense so non-eloquently as well. This isn't a comedy development site.

For some reason when I D/L songs in Spotify they will be re-downloaded randomly.

Also on stock or Peach I could select AT&T or T-Mobile in network operators. Can't in CM9.

What performance settings work best with this phone?

Like for Processor Should minimum be set to 122mhz? What's the best governor setting?

For Memory management what's the best options?

What about surface dithering on this phone?

Just curious.

How do you get Battery Monitors USB fast charge hack to work? It says you need a custom kernel? (One of the things it's suppose to do aside from use more to charge faster is also let you use lower charge for like older cars.) Talked about here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/21129-fast-usb-charge-hack-changed-my-life/
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] DCSlick:
Oh no you got me. LOL. Day is over. Oh noes he ignored me. Life stops now.

So to make this post worth posting, I'm curious if anyone else is running Google Now and having it offer more tiles than just search and weather. Sometimes a map if I'm headed to work when I view it. I'm kinda curious as to just how much more integration there is. As far as the exhibit, what exactly would happen if I used a 16gb microSD card. I was told this only supports up to 8gb. Is it only going to mount 8gbs of it or will it acknowledge the entire amount and I'll run into write errors and such.

ps. Everyone just breathe, ok? Friends :)

Just FYI this feature was *not* working in previous builds and there is a good chance that it's still not working. In my experience, tethering is really finicky on these custom ROMs, particularly the CyanogenMod ones.

What you're doing is the same as USB tethering.

Just test it out before you bank on using it.

Don't use spotify so sorry can't troubleshoot

In order: I have different operators as a choice through easyprofiles. I'm sure there's a specific app letting you do this but afaik, since I haven't tried, I use easyprofiles to choose my operator dynamically.

I keep the minimum at 122 and use the performance governor. I've had lockups with some of the others. Complete cessation of the phone to the point i have to pull the battery. Performance and interactive are the only two I use.

My zRam is at 18% and ksm(Kernel SamePage Merging) is on. I don't purge assets as I've had ghost images and some weird things happen. Your mileage may vary.

I used surface dithering on RebelRom I think and had bad experiences. It might have been an old May/June version of CM9 but I'm not sure. It was when I first got this phone.

This kernel doesn't support fast charge so you're not going to see it working until jocala's kernel supports it. Maybe the ::cough:: :::cough::: CMX version will have this. Hope I helped. If not it's ok.
