[Galaxy S I9000 General] n0waY:
That's not a solution but a bad clumsy workaround!

For me it's not usefull, since I do have email-only contacts which I want in my adressbook, but plently of email adresses in "all contacts" which I don't want to have on my phone's adressbook. Hopefully Samsung will fix this soon, as well as the problem with gmail contacts and groups/ringtones in general.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tumpin:
I have gone from a Sony X1 to a Palm Pre and both gave me major problems. But i don't have one single annoyance with this Samsung. Really nice bit of kit. If it doesn't fall apart after a year it will take the top spot as my best phone ever which is currently the Sony W810i. .
[Galaxy S I9000 General] NeoXTC:
Ya but it's the only quick solution atm. Wonder why Samsung took out the "my contacts" option from stock roml.....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miker71:
Q: Where is the option to assign a custom ringtone to a contact?

A: Like me you probably have ALL your contacts in google's cloud. Only wayI've found to set a custom ringtone is to create a new contact on the "phone", then set a ringtone on it, then link it to the google contact. Clumsy, but works.

Q: Doesn't mount SD on OS X

A: Make sure you have the USB option on the phone set to Mass Storage (not Kies) and turn on USB debugging. Should be fine after that.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] viknet365:
Problem 1:

agree for the fact that it is a clumsy workaround.

Very happy that somebody find this anoyance and report it, I have my SGS for 2 days (1st android device) and thought I missed something.

Wondering if people are really using this phone and not just hacking it :=)

(also it's nice to see such a community)

Why nobody (or nearly, I have been googling many hours without finding and answer) is talking about this: do people think that nowadays phone have to be buggy?????

So, for those that are googling contact group synchronization problems between samsung galaxy s and gmail: IT DOES NOT WORK (or at least not completely)

Best regards to the forum and samsung, please do your homework...... brilliant hard clumsy soft you better use stock android IMHO

I hear there are a few subscription services you can use to unlock but will need to wait a few weeks til the codes are posted (my phone is almost brand new).

Does anyone have a software unlock yet for any other droid phone? (not sure if things work the same a Windeaux phones with hard SPLs etc... ?

The only issue I had was the network connection. Simply typed in the right apn an now it works fine.

Unlocked Wildfire

Hy

I'm just one of many Wildfire owners bought from Vodafone Romania, who CANNOT unlock their phones nowhere because Vodafone changed the original factory codes with new ones.!

They charge us with 50 euro/phone just to push the unlocking code! Outrageous!

So if someone gifted with the knowledge can find a way-software or magic-:)- to unlock it, than you in advance!

wildfire unlock - london (streatham)

as far as I know tilll now, there is no free software to unlock it.

contact your operator, they may be able to do it for free or a small free.

or you can unlock by code. it costs about £15-£20 on ebay it's the easiest way to get it done.

or you can bring it to local phone shop (like myself) where we can unlock it cheaper + can do the S-Off or debrand stuffs too :P

4. In the app, add the Google Account you'd like to share with.

5. Click on "Register Device" to link your account to the Google Chrome to Phone service.

6. Finally, open up that web browser, find something you'd like and push it to phone!!

[Desire General] HorNet505:
I wonder if it is hardware based that the movement sensor is not working while the screen is off.

There are useful apps like "sleeping monitors" who record the movement behaviour in the bed ( to wake you up in an optimum phase)

The Apps although report that it is not working due to sensor is not available while screen is turned off :o(

Or is there a way to tweak it?
[Desire General] aindow:
Try setting the screen to stay awake whilst the phone is charging. I think its a setting in the applications part of the settings menu.
[Desire General] Flaggie:
He wants to use it, for an app that determines the optimal time to wake someone up by their body movements. Which kind of implies that he has the phone on himself and i guess charging while the phone is on you is not convenient, especially if you are trying to sleep.
[Desire General] HorNet505:
The phone lies beside U and the screen should be off. A problem in the Basis I guess
[Desire General] tosomax:
There is any solution?
[Desire General] tosomax:
:(:(:(:(:(:(
[Desire General] Schmeggma:
Bump.

Was using the "Stay awake" development option a viable workaround in the end?
[Desire General] HorNet505:
Not quite.

Its only a workaround to leave the phone on the cord while sleeping.

So I suppose there should be an alteration made by HTC!

Hi,

I was testing Andriod on my Tilt running myn's warm donut but would like to move back to WM6.5 due to the poor battery life. However i cant seem to be able to reflash it using one of the ROMs i have due to activesync not being able to pick the andriod tilt as a device.

Can i get some help please, or if there is a way to improve the battery life i would be interested

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
Depending on what kernel you are on now there you may get better battery life with a later kernel.

I also recommend the trying the latest Froyo build. It's getting better for each day, but yeah, Android eats battery.

but to get back to WinMo, just hold the camera button while powering on to get into flashing mode, then flash it with WinMo.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] po_jo_45:
Thank you very much for the reply, I now know how to get back to winMo if required, I will have a play around with the Andriod ROM you suggested and see if my battery can last more than 15 minutes.

Again thanks :)

First time I tried Android I was doing to good with battery either running 2G Edge Network with GPS, Bluetooth and Wifi turned off.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] blindguyinanorgy:

To flash without active sync you must put your phone in tri color spl but holding camera and power and reseting. (or hold camera when off and then hold power to turn on)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] amitsivak:
Hello all,

Here's the problem. When I go to activate the wifi through comm manager, the button turns off, sometimes it hangs (clock showing) for 6 seconds, sometimes pressing over and over it will not turn. it will turn on for a .5 sec then go right off. At the times when it does turn on, the button below (GPRS or data..I think) will come on as well. There's a big "E" with the signal to the right, and then the little "e" on the top of the today screen will start bugging out with 2 small arrows on it I guess searching for a gprs connection..and a message saying the following:"connecting to media.net" or "connecting to att isp GPRS, connecting to ATT 3g" and "wap.cingular..cannot connect for unknown reason..yada yada yada" the popup messages drive me crazy I want to smash the phone to the floor. but no wifi.

My account has neither gprs or 3G and i'm sick and tired of it searching for it. I click the dismiss/hide button but it just comes right back on bombarding me with these popup messages over and over. Once in a while it will turn on but for a short time to the point it won't connect to the wifi spot, and over and over we go. Skyfire gives me "can't connect to server", and opera comes up, but by the time it does, the wifi button turn off. It's not even getting to the point of connecting to the coffee place. why is it looking for GPRS when all I want is free wifi? All I want to do is check my email once in a while. I live overseas by the way. I did do a clean restart many times but it doesn't fix the problem. I won't flash a new rom as I'm a bit worried so please to offer/recommend. The phone never fell to the floor so I don't think it's the issue. Anyway to configure it to stop searching for GPRS/3G? maybe I did something wrong in the kaiser tweak settings..?

This is an att phone ROM 1.57.502.2 ROM date 8/25/07 RADIO 1.27.12.11

PROTOCOL 22.45.88.07H

I've had the phone for about 2 years and the last 8 months or so it's given me the problems listed. I never took the time to deal with it, but I'm just fed up to the point I will never buy an HTC device again if I can't solve the problem.

any help appreciated..

BTW, on the right side of the phone the crack (between the screen and keyboard) is unusually large and has some play to it. Even though I hardly ever use the

keyboard/sliding mechanism.

Also, nice look to the forum. A much needed overhaul IMO.
