ROM manager backs up and restores everything for me when I switch from rom to rom. Just set up everything once while on each rom and create a backup for each to restore to. I also us Titanium backup to backup my apps but you don't need it if you just want to restore your settings and apps as you saved it in rom manager.

What I'd like to do is set it up so that the phone will require the dot pattern unlock after the phone has been idle for X amount of minutes but NOT require me to slide to unlock the screen.

I currently have Auto Lock installed but it still requires the slide to unlock screen everytime.

HSPA+ went live here last weekend. Absolutely loving it.

(edit: also that one result in the second shot shows how crappy my wifi is right now...)
[Nexus One General] Zephyron:
do you have to upgrade your plan to get hspa+?
[Nexus One General] prettyboy85712:
No. Everyone benefits.
[Nexus One General] productofusa:
Thats why I been getting that irritating H where I used to get 3G only, after flashing Cyan6 RC1. Previous to flashing, at home on 3G i'd get a constant 1.3/6 Mbps, now since flashing i'm always switching over to H and getting at best .03/4, thats point zero 3 or 4, miserable.

Hopefully att is just doing the final tweaking to the HSPA system and soon see some blazing speeds.

Hello,

I am new with Android and I need your help...

I recently bought the 8GB galaxy s. I have about 13 applications installed from the market in the internal sd and I have bought an external sd of 16GB yesterday where I placed all my music and photos. Suddenly today I try to open the galery and the "Not enough memory delete some items" comes up. I checked the internal SD card and from a total og 5.78GB I now have 160kb left!!! I checked where alla the spce went and it went to a file called Adroid. I think this happened since I put the external sd. Does anyone know what might have happened..

Thanks,

Chryssa
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcharng:
Make sure that the directory you copy your music files are really the microsd card. Lots of people get confused between these two directory.

Other than that check	what directory in the android directory are taking up the space. The name of the directory will often correspond to the application.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chryssa33:
Thanks for replying. The directory is the right one. I found the problem the file named Android which had inside a folder named Data and in there com.cooliris.media- cache was eating all my free space for thumbnails of photos! I deleted itand I got back all the space with no problems. I wonder why it did that though....

Keep in mind there is a different between RAM (512Mb) and Storage space (8GB).

the error message could also have been referring to not enough RAM memory, rather than not enough Storage memory.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SWave711:
I get this message from time to time recently as well. I have lots of ram space left and lots of internal memory left as well. Whenever I get this message, the phone cannot read the internal and external sd cards. I usually solve it by wiping cache.

Anyone else with this issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trekki:
Yes! I just tried to download an app yesterday, and the phone told me I did not have enough space. I have 1.7 GB left of internal storage not to mention the 1.6 GB of Internal SD card storage. Any idea what is causing this?

[XPERIA X10 General] KurskS:
I have noticed a prob, that the proximity sensor doesnt turn off the screen during phone call. Anybody knows any ideas of how to fix this prob. Is the screen supposed to turn off when the device detects our ears or cheek once we start talking? I hav been accidently touching the endcall myself a lot of times without purpose. Thank you very much in advance^^
[XPERIA X10 General] Zenghelis:
This has been told many times!! Do a search before, please

Proximity sensor on X10, DOES NOT turn off the screen. It just disable tochpad when the phone is close to your face. The screen turns off according to the time you have set in screen settings, and turns on again when you take the phone away from your ear. (Well, nearly always, sometimes it just don't work fine, at least for me.)

regards
[XPERIA X10 General] KurskS:
Well I did a search and already figured out that it wont turn off the screen but only disable the touchpad, however mine one doesnt even turn the touchpad off, i did many times accidently touching the endcall button on screen, weird...
[XPERIA X10 General] pinkmota:
You can do a little test, place your phone on the table and call a number and then use your finger to cover the proximity sensor. Now try to touch the endcall and see if its disable. If it doesn't disable it then its off to the service center. Good Luck. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] Zenghelis:
There is an option to test that too in the hidden menu, but I just can't find it. Don't remember how to get to that hidden menu. Anybody?
[XPERIA X10 General] MarylandCookie:
In Lockscreen type:

Menu Back Back Menu

Back Menu Menu Back

Then Service Test -> Proximity Switch

Then place your finger over the sensor and it should change from Off to On
[XPERIA X10 General] big_raji:
This is a great tip! Thanks! I had no idea these test functions even existed.
[XPERIA X10 General] j4mm3r:
yup... the problem is that even if the service menu test claims that the sensor is working, the R2 updates seem to have dialer application which doesn't seem to be using it properly.

Like I tried with my R2BA023 update and I cannot get the proximity sensor to trigger while making or receiving a call...:confused:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] SquidgyB:
I'd just like to see if anyone else is getting any audio issues, as I've noticed a few small things that marr the otherwise excellent audio quality that I get while listening to music:

- On bootup, the startup.wav sound often stutters, or is finely granulated.

- While navigating through menus, sometimes the audio stutters/is granulated. If I'm right, it correlates to the cpu clock speed being ramped up due to coming out of "sleep" mode. This is just speculation of course.

- Whenever audio is played, there is a very quiet but audible (with a reasonable set of headphones) click, followed by a quieter "hiss" which then plays throughout the audio being played, and for a short while after.

Now this last "symptom" I've heard on many audio devices, some much worse than others, with a rare few having no noticeable noise whatsoever. The Dell Streak I owned for a short time had a relatively loud and distinctive "click & hiss" combo - it was one of the reasons I changed to a Galaxy S. It just surprises me that a device where many people are praising it's audio playback qualities (for me) has some issues.

Anyways, I'd like to hear some thoughts on this, and maybe some people who have no issues whatsoever, with quality headphones, could show me that my particular device needs replacing - or that it is common to all devices.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kirandeep:
I get the stuttering on start up everytime, I was also listening to some audio last night with headphones and there was lag and stuttering, I didnt hear any hiss but it was not a smooth process expecially switching between apps with music player running, it froze up for a few minutes.

I also tried going through the music player menus and not everytime but sometimes it would stutter just going into settings, at times this phone frustrates me more than my G1, but with the G1 i expected that, especially running eclair roms.

RUNNING JG5
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SquidgyB:
I'm partly hoping that maybe FroYo, with it's cpu usage benefits, might help with the stuttering.

I'll also try to do a decent recording of what I mean later on tonight - Im at work with a laptop at the moment, so the recording quality is dire. I have no idea what I'm doing in terms of impedances/loads either - it means nothing to me :p

e: I've had a look in the other threads regarding audio - the one about the default EQ is interesting it must be said, but there are no direct implications for the issues I'm hearing here.

I should post my software version as well, though the problem has been endemic to the phone rather than the currently flashed rom - I currently use JM2, overlaid with SamSet pretties, Mimo's kernel and LauncherPro.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vak:
2 phones here with a hiss/whistle artifacts during the talk :-/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dandabyron:
I recorded a vdieo the other day & the audio was totally trashed - all I got was gargling crackle. It was bad enough that I thought I'd got water in the speaker aperture! But playing music is fine (to my ears, anyway).

Hi,

I am in a situation where I really wonder how I will be able to use my Samsung ( or any other android phone) to work ...

I have the feeling that for everything else I will be able to forget the iphone ( I am waiting for some app on android market for aussie users but it's coming soon) and for many features it will be way better than the iphone ( music without itune, video and game on this awesome screen ....)

Regarding the business I need to be able to do something simple : read a mail and reply/forward it

For the moment I have not been able to do so completely.

For instance, if there is a screenshot embedded in the mail, when I reply or forward the mail my apps will either

*put the image as attachment ( the best case)

*let an empty box and my screenshot will not be anmore in the mail

*create an unreadable mail with xml node everywhere

*put the whole mail into an attachment.

Even for the display of the mail receveid only few app will display the screenshot without changing it into an attachment ( it can be annoying if there are several screenshot with text around in the original mail....)

For the moment I have tested the stock samsung app, HTC work mail 1.00.024, K-9 , touchdown, HTC on froyo stock app ...

Do you have any idea if Android will be one day able to do what windows and apple do for years ??

I thought Froyo would be the answer but I am less and less confident on this ...

PS : I knew when I bought the Samsung that the android 2.1 was not supporting exchange but I thought froyo would and that iterce app would also

PPS : here is an example of what my mail looks like when forward with android app :

<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns:p="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:powerpoint" xmlns:a="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:access" xmlns:dt="uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882" xmlns:s="uuid:BDC6E3F0-6DA3-11d1-A2A3-00AA00C14882" xmlns:rs="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:rowset" xmlns:z="#RowsetSchema" xmlns:b="urn:schemas-microsoft-

and of course all the text around the screenshot has disappeared

Now my colleague is using Froyo on the Desire and he is still not able to do what I want.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dseo80:
Samsung (the conglomerate) is converting their entire mobile infrastructure to include android powered (specifically the Galaxy S) devices. I'm not sure if the proprietary apps can be ported/moved to other phones or companies but it seems to show that there is alot of confidence in using android for businesses.

Things it will include from what i gather are:

VPN to corporate network.

Access to corporate mail (POP?) from wifi and HSPUDA (secured connection licensed from mobile provider).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
what's wrong with installing 3rd party software to connect to outlook/exchange ?

Android doesn't have out of the box support for exchange yet, if that is what you are looking for.

The idea of Android is open source, and a big wide market for all programmers to make some profit by release software that will fill the gap, to gather whatever the people needs.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nicoloco:
I am not sure you have read my post correctly ?

I have nothing against installing a 3rd party app that's why I said that I hoped that a 3rd party app would support exchange entirely... but there is no 3rd party app which does the job as the iphone !!!

That's why I tested so many different app

Now one moretime when you say : doesn't support yet ... did you read my post ??

I have tested Froyo and it 's just as bad as android 2.1

So now I have to wait maybe android 3.0 for a potential spport of exchange, is that what you meant ??
[XPERIA X10 General] pratishk:
Dear all,

Did a search and could not find anything that related to my specific problem. So apologies if I did not look hard enough.. BUT...

I finally cleaned up all my contacts on google and synched my phone with googlesynch rather than sony synch. Great all fine, except.. if I create a contact in my x10, so someone calls me, I add their number as a new contact. When I next synch the contacts, the new contact has been deleted!

I can not for the life of me find any setting on the x10 which chooses how it synchs and why it keeps deleting the contacts!?

Any help advice would be appreciated...
[XPERIA X10 General] Mobzter:
What happens if u go to settings, data synchronization, google sync, n check the auto sync option n then add the new contact?

perhaps mayb try mess with the option at the bottom, group synchronization?

hope its of any use!!
[XPERIA X10 General] pratishk:
Tried autosynch, and manual synch, and unselected all the group options. Stilll no joy. I presume this works fine for everyone else?
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
Yep, works fine for me.
[XPERIA X10 General] cvchetan:
i had this prob...

since then stopped using sync services..

whenever u need a backup of ur contacts, jus go to contacts tab and select backup to mem card.

a .vcf file is created in the storage card\system\pim folder which has all ur contacts..
[XPERIA X10 General] Izzy_Deadyet:
Don't have my X10 with me at the moment but isn't there an option on which direction to sync? Directly on the X10 or on Gmail website settings?

Unless I'm thinking of Windows Mobile Device Center ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
I can't see that option on my Xperia, but not checked gmail settings as it either updates my phone if I create a contact in gmail or in gmail if created on my phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] pratishk:
Hi all,

Could not find any settings to decide which way to synch. Hard Reset the phone and all works fine now! Thanks for all the suggestions though.

I had a slight suspicion it might have been to do with the googlemail.co.uk changing to gmail.com? But then why would the original synch work with the other contacts? maybe it would not allow googlemail account to add into gmail account?

Anyhow, after a full reset (and registering gmail on the phone) it seems to be fine now, touch wood(!)

Thanks again

Is it possible to change the behavior of the home button so that when you press it, no matter which screen you are on, you get the "zoomed out " view of all seven screens?

The reason for my question is that I would like to have the zoomed out view as my default home screen, not the center screen.

Or explained in another way...the first thing I want to see when I unlock my phone is the expanded view of all 7 screens.

I have noticed a problem with all Android ports Enclair and Froyo, when the device go on standby the screen is not really turned off, if you look carefully under a light you can see a bar that is moving from down to up, completing all the screen surface and restarting, the bar is a little more clear than the dark of the powered off screen.

OK so I have in front of me a novatec and epson unit.

I need to choose which one to keep and it is killin' me, for several reasons.

Off the bat. Pro's of both.

Novatec:

Looks better/more vibrant.

Brighter.

Changing brightness always fades in and out. (Noticeable from power control, screen timeout, and brightness control in the settings menu)

Epson:

More realistic.

White's and black's look better.

Problems. They both have light leakage (same amount).

However, the novatec has a stuck pixel which is why I got a replacement, also, though it looks better the coloration is very slightly off (strange, almost pinkish hue on white's).

Epson sometimes shows horizontal lines upon close inspection (especially on grays) where the novatec doesnt. Also looks slightly washed out..

The last problem that is really bothering me.. It doesn't fade in/out lol!

I

know

it sounds stupid, but why would a different LCD change something like that? Which is clearly software.

Is there any way to bring that back?

It just seems like a really stupid thing to disable a feature that is clearly aesthetic for only the epson's.
[EVO 4G General] topdnbass:
I found one reason why the immediate brightness change is beneficial.

When you turn off a nova and turn it on, for a second it's at max brightness then ramps down to the set brightness.

Epson is immediate :p.

I think that is why they chose that method.

I'm still stuck here.. I want the higher quality screen, but i get mixed reviews from the web.

Most people think that the novatec looks better, but is less accurate.

I would have to agree with that.

So then which one is higher quality?

I would like some background on Novatec/k/ch. I cant find much about them other than this website.

www.novatech.co.uk

At least for epson I have heard of them before and they are known for their imaging products.
[EVO 4G General] Bielinsk:
The only time you will notice a difference is when you have two in front of you.

Or you obsess about it enough to research it to much and create a post on a forum about it.

I have a Novatec and I am glad I do. I don't like the look of the epsons that I have seen. And mine fades nicely.
