Wrong, "All" devices do not have this problem

You are utterly wrong. It's a year later, and with all updates, it has this problem. My friend and I recorded video at same concert, standing next to each other. He had an iPhone, I had my Galaxy S. His is fine, mine is a solid wash of distortion noise. So... nope. It is the Galaxy S, either hardware or software/firmware.

Also, I REGULARLY use a Zoom Z4 recorder in VERY loud environments. Pristine recording. Zero loudness distortion.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Superbeeblaze:
Yup, i recorded an exhaust vid for my truck before and it was complete static. After? it was crystal clear.

Phenominal results.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
you can use voodoo control app by supercurio

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.controlappdonate

worth every $ spend on it

aside of ability to customize mic sensitivity it allows to customize shs sound chip to maximum
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ranjib:
The voodoo fix works fine. No problems. I am using it since the first version (frodo..and now gingerbread)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] moses992:
I had the same problem and it was a big letdown for me . However i assure you Voodoo control pluz solves the problem !

It lets you choose a mic sensitivity preset for recording videos (Original , balanced , high sensitivity , or low sensitivity ) . It really did help me alot :) .

poor headset mic quality on SGS+

Hi there,

Not sure if it is a good thread to ask - the problem I have is poor mic quality when using SGS+ headset during a phone call . Is anybody aware if voodoo control plus can also address that? Does it work on SGS+? I'd like to make sure before I spend money on that app.

Can anyone who has the Galaxy S check please whether it is possible to sync notes with SyncML or not?

I currently have an Omnia II and it can only sync contacts, calendar and tasks with SyncML (Smart Sync app).

I have an account on memotoo.com and for my Omnia II I had to use Funambol client to sync my notes to memotoo.

But memotoo.com says Samsung phones can sync notes too (which is apparently not ture for my O2).

Can someone please check if it is possible with Galaxy S (Funambol for Android cannot do that).
[EVO 4G General] Tilde88:
Just a PM response, but I figured I'd just post it to the public...ive been thinking about this for a while now...

colors on NOVATEK are horribly wrong... I think they might be the AMOLED screens that HTC had originally announced the phone with... Then they noticed the color issue with the new AMOLED technologies and reverted to the EPSONs.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
excuse my ignorance, but this is like hearing one end of a phone conversation for a very brief moment. care to provide some more context and detail?

don't mean to sound rude.. i'm honestly curious.
[EVO 4G General] trentlythp:
Maybe it's just me, but I have a NOVA and my brother has an Epson and the difference is negligible if any compared side by side. I guess we are just color blind and don't know it.
[EVO 4G General] datajosh:
Neither Novatek or Epson make AMOLED panels (only Samsung and LG) and if it was an AMOLED screen it would be noticeably better :)
[EVO 4G General] Tilde88:
lol then you have eye problems... i held my NOVA0002 next to my EPS0003 and i tell you, nova is this color -->>:(:(<<--- where its supposed to be black... put the default sense black background on... youll see

and it was about my exchaning my phone due to the screen grounding issue...

also thanks for the Samsung LG comment... I dont think its impossible that what I said could be true
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
Tilde, you're cool. End of story.

This thread is pointless. Close please!

[EVO 4G General] Aridon:
The new phones have nova panels last I checked so they didn't switch anything to epson. If anything they ran both as tests and picked nova for whatever reason.
[EVO 4G General] engagedtosmile:
Mine is Novatek and black levels are amazing. Color quality is good as well. I have seen Evos with the purple tint though. I just don't think it matters what screen type it is.
[EVO 4G General] Tilde88:
thank you for the constructive feedback.

very interesting... i thought all novateks would have the hue discoloration... perhaps its something that will soon be hacked out... either way, im happy with my epson
[EVO 4G General] Quick2822:
I have a related question.

I actually have a 0003, with the Nova screen. Is there a difference between the 0002 and 0003 models with the Nova screen?
[EVO 4G General] topdnbass:
Tilde do you have a 002 nova?

My 003 nova looks quite good

Swyped from my Evo 4G
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
I like the vibrancy of the Novateks over the Epsons anytime. Whether there is a pinkish hue or not is only distinguishable when setting it side-by-side with another device as your eyes are constantly adjusting the white balance to the brightness color you see. Therefore, the hue goes unnoticed most of the time anyways.

BTW, both screens are definitely not AMOLED. I wish Novas were 'cause then I'd be using the red tone tweak and would be saving 42% of battery life as it's been tested with the Nexus Ones.
[EVO 4G General] catpunt:
I have a google io 0002 novatec and have compared it to a 0003 novatec and mine is noticeably brighter and more vibrant than the other one at full brightness. i do detect a cooler color temperature but it's only noticeable in contrast with a screen with a warmer temp. who is to say either one is incorrect? they both appear color accurate individually
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
My cousin darrell told my other cousin darrell that my first cousin darrell that his face kinda red. Figured it was from being in the sun a little longer then he aught to have been in it. But to be honest wit cha i reckon i wouldn't have noticed if darrell hadn't said nuffin. Its a little red but ain't too red i reckon.

Its like that little ding in your car door. It's small until someone points it out to you. Then all of a sudden WOW it got bigger magically.

The Nova panels are fine. Flash some ROMs or read a book.

[EVO 4G General] toenail78:

[EVO 4G General] PLESTIUC:
love my 0002 NOVA. the screen is stunning and no matter how much I try to find flaws in it , I can't
[EVO 4G General] vWvSTATICvWv:
I have a Nova and an Epson on hand right now and i prefer the Nova to be honest. The colors seem richer and not washed out.
[EVO 4G General] jerryparid:
I've had experience with 2 x 003 Epson and 1 x 003 Nova.

To be honest, Nova is a superior screen.

Nova

Color way more vibrant, perhaps overly saturated. Colors look so dark and deep.

Candied apple look, super glossy looking colors

Utterly crap looking black, purplish hue

Might be a tad bit brighter on maximum birghtness

"Deeper" behind the glass

Epson

Color faded out compared to Nova

Beautiful and pure black

"Shallower" behind the glass, much like a AMOLED
[EVO 4G General] AMDman18:
So I've Had two EVOs. The first was a 0002/nova and I now have a 0003/nova. The first thing I noticed in alot of the reviews and in my first device was the improper color of the screen. Maybe it's because I sell TVs and have some idea of the differences between properly calibrated displays and improperly calibrated displays, but it bothered me to no end. Industry standard color temp is 6500k. My first device looked like it was somewhere between 7000k and 7500k, meaning it looked too blue. Now it didn't look as bad as some instances I've seen of it looking flat out purple(between 9000k and 9500k). My current one however, even though it has a nova screen as well, looks to be much closer to the 6500k standard. I've compared it side by side with a friend's 0003/nova that looked identical to my first screen. I think it's just totally random as to what screen is in these things and how that particular screen looks. I'm not terribly familiar with nova as a company, but judging from this situation and how wildly their screens vary, I'm guessing that they don't have the best production process. At least reports of the epson screens are consistent

So, I am not really sure how long my phone has been doing this since I have not added a contact in some time, however now whenever I try to add a name to a contact (i can add a contact number...but not their name) i get "The application People (process com.android.htccontacts) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

Sooo I cannot update / add new contacts.

Running stock EVO, non-root. Anyone seen anything similar? I tried searching but was unable to locate anything similar
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sirchuk:
I've never run into this problem on a non-rooted phone.

As a workaround, you can try adding the contacts to your Google account, they should then sync with your phone automatically.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lc3necro:
I've been doing a bit more google-digging, and have also been removing some random apps (cleaning house?) but I also seem to FC com.android.settings after *every* uninstall.

ah well...If I do manage to find something I'll post what I find for others...also I found a similar problem (I'm totally going to piggy back this guys thread here http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2375527 )

Solution to ----- process com.android.htc contacts has stopped unexpectedly.

I had the same problem on HTC HD2 Android 2.2. I solved as follows:

Source: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=6786a5dc2dab4183&hl=en

Go to Settings - accounts and sync

turn off auto sync and then remove your facebook account from the "manage accounts"

Go back into the "people" application and go to "online directories" (the little globe) then go to facebook. re-enter your details.

hopefully after resetting it all. the problem should go away.

the annoying thing is, you have to go back through and link all your contacts to their facebook accounts again.

I have done this and it all seems to be working.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] apristel:

Hi everyone. I have a problem im trying to sort out but I need pointed in the right direction as to what could it be.

I have a home web server im running. On that server im testing out joomla / apache / etc...

I added a section where users can scan and download a manga in *.CBR format if they like by scanning a QR code.

Example:

http://baka-inu.dnsdojo.net/index.p...:i-hate-bath&catid=12:manga-gallery&Itemid=31

Problem is, when the user scans the QR code using the evo, it starts downloading garbage to the screen on the evo instead of offering to save the file to the memory / micro SD card.

Any sugestions welcome. Thanks!

Hey everyone

I have tried to search the forum about how to install the 2.2 on the X10. Or even the 2.1

So my question is, if there's someone who know the easy way or if it is at all possible?

I am also wondering if the Fryo update for the Nexus one can be used, and then what with the SE functions, will the camera still work and at what resolution.

Kindly

Simon

Denmark
[XPERIA X10 General] Mobzter:
its not fully rooted.. bootloader still to go.. then 2.1 or 2.2 will depend on the chefz who cook the custom rom.. correct me if im wrong!

not sure about the camera resolution and stuff but I'm sure having android 2.x wil give us hd recording and 16M screen..
[XPERIA X10 General] Siho:
Thanks

Well thats just to bad right now :)

But i hope the people soon get it working. If i can install Android 2.2 on my x10 before Iphone 4 comes to Denmark. I will donate the money i've put aside to buy the iphone 4, and postpone the buy to the second shipment to Denmark... :D

Well i just gotta have the iPhone. I'm a Apple fan yes :)

Looking forward to installing Fryo, when its possible.

Kindly

Simon
[XPERIA X10 General] Talonnb:
You'll be an Apple fan until you realise you can't hold it the way you're used to or the screen goes yellow. Look up Iphone 4 issues online before you buy it

POS in my opinion, but I'm an Apple hater.
[XPERIA X10 General] kakekeke:
Well, i suggest for you to take of your Apple goggless off, and open your eyes... Im not saying that iPhone is crap, but by the issues the first ones are having, i rather wipe ass by the money then spend it on iphone...

So, i suggest for you to wait few more months that they fix the problems... But like you sayd, your apple fanboy, so you would buy red brick by 1000$, if they call i it iphone :)

[XPERIA X10 General] HunteronX:
It IS fully rooted. 'Rooting' is when you gain linux 'root' permissions, and can do whatever you want with the system. It is even more so than with Windows, because you can't change the windows kernel, but you can with Linux, on which everything is run.

If you want a froyo rom, just wait. A method is probably being worked on jerpelea, Bin4ry, Maryland Cookie etc. In fact they are trying to get a custom kernel running which will allow us to do this. Just look at some of the threads on the X10 Android Development section.

I'm not as knowledgeable as the devs here, but I try to do some research so I can at least partly understand what is going on, and learn some things along the way.

Sorry about the rant... :)

Hhmm strange...:confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] visitador02:
What annoys me the most is not whether you are an Iphone fan or not, but not researching and asking questions that are obviously, not answerable.

Does anyone really think that there is some secret society keeping everyone else from knowing if an upgrade is available? In this age of instant news, I bet the moment the X10's program loader is hacked, the news will instantly spread and custom roms will soon show up.

...and before people ask whether other phone's Roms can be used once the program loader is hacked, the answer is no. It takes a lot of experimentation just because of differences in the hardware.

I guess I am tired of reading this question over and over again.

I think the google desktop dock is way to expensive, as i only need it as a charger and have no need for the A2DP function.

But all the cheap dock's on ebay uses the USB connection and not the dock pins, has anybody found a cheap dock that has dock pins connection?

It's much more convenient to be able to just drop the phone in a dock instead of needing to connect the phone to a dock, and be able to use the dock mode is a plus when you use it as an alarm clock.

I bought the dock when I first got the nexus one. If you guys get one for cheap and want to continue using the Nexus One, go for it. I mean the phone does slide down easly if the bump against the dock. But the lack of wear on the usb connector is well worth it.
[Nexus One Accessories] 350Rocket:
Do you mind giving any feedback on this unit? I want to buy a separate charger cause I have a spare battery and OEM dock the previous owner bought new with the phone but I want to be able to charge the spare battery without swapping back and forth from the phone.

Right I messed up, with reason though :p

Was looking up the sim locking problem with upgrading the radio on Orange handsets, seen that places like the Carphone Warehouse unlock the phones before selling and a lot of other places do (I cant vouch for this), so I took the plunge (I never got my phone from the CPW but it was worth a shot, I thought)

I forgot to put a backup radio on ma SD card and flashed the radio, now of course I can't get past the unlock code bit.

I know you can flash a stock ROM to get the original radio.

So my questions are:

1. How can I flash the stock ROM? Can it be done from the bootloader?

2. Can I push files to my SD card? Or even to a place I can flash the radio?

Nvm I got it :P mod can delete it if you like :)

New SMS Function Update: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=812

Has anyone installed this and seen any drastic improvements? I believe the last SMS update they released did absolutely no good. Is this something you should install even if you have ROM versions 1.66.XXX.X?

Sure would be nice to have them fix these issues from locking up during heavy sms usage once and for all.
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Usually they say a ROM version number as the one listed has the fix built in.
[HD2 General] mojohio:
Here is the link for all the latest HTC updates for the HD2 and this New- SMS update is out after the latest ROM update? That doesn't make sense? They have screwed up the SMS'ing of this phone from the very beginning. That being said, if they could ever fix it, I wouldn't want anything else.
