[Legend General] Barthel:
I've the same problem, previous phone was a Samsung OMNIA with way better reception in both bands, 2G and 3G.

Stock baseband version is 47.26.35.04U7.05.35.26L

Any idea which software load provides better radio performance or is it a hardware design glitch ?
[Legend General] bb147:
my cell signal seems fine but bluetooth signal is quite weak.. i can't be far from the phone at all without it dropping the sound.
[Legend General] subset:
The bottom black plastic is the Legend antenna (battery, sim and sdcard cover) but it's not lucky - it is all on your palm - for this - you are the radio-wawe shadow ;)
[Legend General] MLucas:
I used to have an xperia x1. On 3g I was lucky if I had even a bit of signal. But with my new Legend, I have excellent signal. But as mentioned above, the Legend does loose signal if the batterycover is covered (with your hand). But then again, that goes for every mobile. Unfortunately the Legends antenna is at the bottom and thus covered easily...

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgegreco86:
Hey all. I need to do a handset exchange with Magenta here next week. Do you think it would be a good idea if i put it back to stock? As in remove my root, put 1.6 on, and send her off?

Or -

Send the phone in as is. Haha. Its just cause the radio on it fails a lot ( what i told them) in all actuality, it works, just the speaker on top of the screen went out, resulting in having to use speakerphone at all times. SUCKS.

So what should i do? Thanks in advance!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AustinAce:
I would un-root just to be safe. :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] BigPapo44:
Was wondering if anyone knows how to turn off the Facebook contacts because I don't really talk to the people on facebook. So I am trying to find out a way so that when I am searching my contacts friends from Facebook don't pop up. Should be a simple problem to resolve but couldn't figure it out.:confused:
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
From Home, go Menu > Settings > Accounts and Sync > tap Facebook, and you should have an option to disable Contacts Sync

Now, even if you're not syncing contacts, the contacts list will still link the photo of your frinds that are in Facebook. I have yet to find an over all setting to change, but on a individual level, you can go into the contact and change which pohoto to link it to (Facebook vs Google...)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] simplyTravis:
Also, you can go in to your contacts and hit Menu>View and switch off the facebook for mytouch contacts. I turned off my SIM contacts because I have been using Google.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] BigPapo44:
I did everything u posted but Facebook contacts still come up when I try to send a message
[myTouch 3G Slide General] MisterKrispy:
I just want my starred contacts back. This FAVs crap gets on my nerves. I want to hit the phone or contacts button and instantly see my call log or my starred contacts. It is truely my ONLY complaint with the phone. I love it as much as my N1 other than that.

I bought a case for my Touch2 from the UK ebay site (www.ebay.co.uk), seller "caseandpouch". Do a search for "touch2 case". It cost only UKP £3.99 and the quality of the case is excellent.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] suge_liang:
help, im sorry for posting this problem. but i tried to google it just not find it.

I just got new sprint tp2, it freezes a lot. when i reset it, it says "factory bootstrap fail. Can't get device id n bla bla bla" after that everything is very not responsive. Freezes a lot in every click of everything. i'm still at WinMo 6.1 stock ROM

What seems to be wrong? what should i do? is it bricked unit?

i haven't done anything. just trying Hard Reset 2 times. but it still saying that. please help anyone.

I am so sorry because i'm a noob in this. Thanks for your help guys.

__ SOLVED__ by reflashing to stock rom. Thanks drewcam888 for the advice
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] burtonsnow8:
First, are you doing a hard or soft reset? To do a hard reset go Start > Settings > All Settings > System > Memory or Clear Storage. If you do not have that option, pull out your battery, put it back in the phone and hold the volume down, send and end key at the same time, then restore to factory default.

If you are still getting this error take it back to sprint!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] suge_liang:
yes i've perform 2 times of hard reset. all by buttons combo (yes, no and power button). but it still happen each time i soft reset the phone. I might have a bad ROM inside. is flashing to newer ROM will give me a chance to fix this issue? thanks for the reply
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] drewcam888:
Just reflash the stock 2.1 or 2.5 rom. My guess is that you have a bad flash. Also do a task 29 before installing the stock rom again.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] suge_liang:
just reflash to winmo 6.5 stock rom. and now all back to normal. thx a lot. :D

Btw, what is task 29? am sorry, i am a very noob :D
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] burtonsnow8:
task 29 is the process that clears the storage of a phone, it happens before each ROM install. They have isolated the process and created an install for task 29, so it acts like something installs, but your phone memory is being cleared. After you run task 29, go into bootloader and load your favorite ROM (either through USB or SD card). The purpose is to have a fresh install each time.

you can't just download maps, you have to buy them ;).

There are other ways to get them ofcourse, but those aren't exactly legal. If you really want to, as always: google is your friend
[TG01 General] Scougar:
Hi guys,

I have seen other comm managers that disable the 3G on other phones, but nothing for TG01. 3G signal is bad where I work and where I live, so would like to be able to disable 3G if possible on the fly.

Does an app already exist?
[TG01 General] bib*oops:
As for direct tg01 settings, go to phone/options/mode & choose GSM.

Try search option in the forum for a dedicated app.
[TG01 General] Scougar:
I did search which is why i am asking :-)

When I try to select gsm it is a greyed out option for Orange. So either need to enter Orange settings again or find a handy app. An app would be nicer to switch 3G on and off at will though!

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] header2k:
Try a hardreset:

Hold the power and camera button while putting the stylus into the little hole in the bottom.

This also deletes everything saved on the Device itself.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] philiplam:
You just need to hold the power button if you want a hard reset.

Holding both will go to Bootloader mode (mode for upgrading rom).

Cheers,

Philip

HSDPA == 3.5G it's better then 3g

[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
So, the Droid has a dock/holster for the car that automatically puts the phone into a "car mode". Does this phone even have that ability? I know using the Genius button you can activate a driving mode, but I think thats just for notifications...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] detox702:
The MT3GS doesn't have a Car Home app in it, which probably means that there aren't plans for a car dock.

However, I was in the store yesterday, and there was an advertisement for a really cool stereo looking dock for the MT3G, so I'm hopeful one will come out for the Slide. I'd be all over that.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Interesting, that may make my decision on whether to use my phone as my music player or not. Having it's own 3.5mm jack was one of the selling points for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] shadowmike:
buy a universal car dock that swivels.

install the good ol' google car dock (as attached)

and open.

as for putting your phone in a dock and it magically opens an app. not going to happen we dont have the contacts on the bottom, top, sides, or the back of the phone for those functions.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Housetek:
Employees phones have a Nav app, and the mytouch3g cardock works for pretty much any phone, thats the one im using and it works great.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] simplyTravis:
I created a Car "mode" on my phone with the Genius button as a shortcut so I don't have to hold the real button down. Also I have links to CoPilot, Google Maps, Double Twist, and other things on one screen.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Greyzzz:
How does one install this on a phone?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Couple ways:

1: Copy the .apk to your SD card, and use a file manager like Astro or Linda

2: Using ADB

adb install [path to apk on pc]
[myTouch 3G Slide General] FatherStorm:
the "Tasker" app for android can be set to launch apps, do things based on states, such as say, plugged in . Mine is set to turn and leave screen on when plugged in, as well as disable the swipe security screen when in range of my home network, switch on alarm clock app between 11 at night and 7:30 in the morning.

I installed "QuickMenu 2.8" in my PDA, but the battery icon overlaps to the clock on the taskbar. How can I shift the icon (clock or battery, or another)?

Tnx everybody!
[Touch2 General] Frank C:
Do not know how your taskbar looks like......What I use is Battclock......http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=612083 .....which displays battery and clock above each other but various customizable options are possible. Basically it can cover current icons to give a better look.

Yes you can change position of icons via registry.....see attached example under 4.2 location http://touchlockpro.sourceforge.net/BSettings.html#4.10 ...but I warn you it is quite some manual work......
[Touch2 General] Brute_Force:
But you don't knows were could I found the registry value of the wm6.5 tasbar icon? becouse i don't wanna intall the taskbar program raccomanded by you.
[Touch2 General] Frank C:
Apart from the link I sent you I have not an overview of where to find registry for all other icons you want to move. Did it myself for the battery only.....
[Touch2 General] Brute_Force:
But your battery icon was installed by your program...isn't it? If I'll Know where is the value of my icon battery about "Quick Menu" Program, I've resolved my problem!
[Touch2 General] Frank C:
See if you have in registry HKCU\software\quickmenu. And than you have to find an X or Y indication for position of battery icon......play around with these values to see if it works. Note: soft reset after every change.....
[Touch2 General] Brute_Force:
I tried it...the key exists but inside there's nothing that calls to mind the X or Y Icon battery value....sigh!

[HTC Vox] odiad:
hi

has anybody experience with getting access to a avm fritzbox menu (favorite WLAN router in Germany) with my mobile? Internet access is no problem via WLAN - so far everything is okay.

To get access to the router settings (with a browser on computer) I have to fill in "fritz.box" or IP adress of the box, and then there appears a Login-window to open fritzbox-menu.

With mobile-IE or Opera mini it doesn't work. The login-window doesn't appear.

Is there a way to come into fritzbox menu? (I have access with my mobile and total commander and ftp to my external harddrive which is connected via USB to the fritzbox - so in general connection to the box works).

Regards Odiad

http://www.samsungmobile.com.sg/news-events/pressReleasesView.do?pressNo=3862&targetPage=

Samsung have declared that galaxy S does have a TV-OUT but i still haven't seen the TV-OUT port yet also i still haven't read that it comes with a TV-OUT cable so does anybody know if it really has a TV-OUT and how it exactly work ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] darksnarfer:
Look it in the manual, the Galaxy S does have TV Out through the 3.5mm audio jack. My old Nokia N95 also had this, although never used it. The downside is that just ouputs standard definition, so no 720p :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] rfary:
i interested to know as was planning to use that to output to the car 2din player and display the gps on there. so far i tried the demo, there is a TV out setting that lets you choose NTSC and PAL. i think the cable should be the same as the Omina 2. anyone tired it out can let us know?

thanks.:)

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
It amazes me the amount of other Surgeons & Doctors I come across here.

Sorry to hear about your new born's condition.

I know you know but to all others here an infant with collick can be quite stressful for parents as the child can cry for up to several hours a day.

At nine weeks old you could still be in for some sleepless nights as it can last up to four months......

If anyone else is interested about what collick is you can read a good guide here.

....and we're back on topic sorry. :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Tachikoma_kun:
I bougt the Nokia cable, it's a CA-75U for Nokia N95-N97, cost me £1.94 delivered from ebay seller "SuperEtrader"

Hey Beards, thanks for the article! Came accross very handy now. (4 month old daughter here!)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
My pleasure.... If any part of what you find comes as good advice/help then that is all that matters.

I know parents find it extremely difficult to cope in any situation with their child, that's why we must ensure they too are treated as patients. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Rawat:
I ordered the same one from amazon for £2, free postage and packaging. Works pretty decent, sounds a bit low, and I haven't managed to get rid of the borders, but I haven't messed around with overscan on the tv, but it should fix it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
Does anyone knows if the TV-out cable for Samsung Omnia II will work with SGS?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Providing one end is a 3.5mm Jack and the other is the normal Red/White/Yellow then there shouldn't be any difference.

It's just a standard Audio/Video cable... the compatibility lies with the phone not with the cable.

My one is marked Nokia but it works on the SGS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
Thats not correct, I bought some standard HAMA av cable and its not working, it just shows some crippled screen with lines with humming sound in the backgroud.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] miker71:
I got the Nokia cable too, it definitely works on my SD (CRT) TV.

However I got the same problem with borders and haven't got around to seeing if I can fix it (also I originally tested on JF3 and now I am on JG5 firmware). What I find a little odd is that my kid's iPod Touch can jack into the exact same TV (different cable, needs an official Apple cable) and we don't see any border problems. So I wonder if the overscan is with the device itself (and why I need to re-test with JG5 ...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
That is quite odd.... I tried a standard cable which I found in my drawer of 'collectables' and it worked.... in a fashion (had the large border around it).

The Nokia cable (which I later purchased) works exactly the same.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
I just bought original samsung tv out, will see if that works.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kevo:
My old archos cable works perfectly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Which Archos machine did this one come with?

I have several Archos machines but don't recall a cable of this type.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kevo:
500 something or other. 500 G mini, maybe? 'It's a good few years old.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Bugger.... I don't have that one.

I still have my Jukebox 20 (20Gb), AV140 (40GB), AV380 (80GB), AV7100 (100GB), AV700TV (40GB)

Is this the one you have?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] jimbob343:
Im using the Nokia tv out. Anybody noticed the colours and quality arnt as good.. Get much better quality running though my pc and All Share for videos.

Maybe try for yourself.. Just have media player open with streaming enabled and it shows up in AllShare.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Yes, I'm finding the Nokia cable although it works it's not as good as the other cable which I found laying around in my cable drawer.... but if the Archos cable that kevo mentions gives a good picture and no border I'll order this one as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
Just a quick report: original samsung cable for omnia II works.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
What about quality.... Do you get the border edges as is being found on other cables?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
I am not sure, I just checked if it is working, but I havent seen any borders as far as I can remember. Will get u know today evening when I will try to watch some movie.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] kirandeep:
I want to be able to use this on my touch screen in car, it has a RCA input, I have tried on my tv with nokia cable, but would be amazing if this would work in car as well.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
No borders with the original samsung cable.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Right.... that's good enough for me. I don't suppose you have a link or product code?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
I left tha casew from the cable at work, and there is no product number on the cable, but I think its a generic tv-out cable for samsung mobiles with 3,5mm jack.

I think its this one (sorry, I only foud slovak site, but bthere is a model number): http://www.gsm-shop.sk/prislusenstv...el-samsung-i8000-omnia-2,-i8510,-s7220,-s8300

It looks like its AATCX10
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Beards:
Thanks Mikulec,

Would it be a fair assumption to suggest this is also the cable
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mikulec:
Yep, thats it, and the price is almost the same (11,90EUR).

http://www.clasohlson.se/Product/Product.aspx?id=104375063

I bought that one, it was the cheapest cable I could find. All I get is a grey mess and distorted sound. I can't see a thing no matter what combination I use. I've tried the cable on an HDTV and regular TV, nothing. *sigh* What a waste of money.
