[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
as sad as that is it is still funny.^^^^6

Any way. OP Has anything mentioned worked yet?

Please let us know. If something has worked it serves as help to the next person who has this problem. if none of it worked it lets us know to keep giving ideas.

as to people complaining about some not being helpful. This was originally posted in the dev forum. If you have been here a day or read any posts you should know that if you post a question in the dev forum 9 out of 10 times you will be ridiculed and flamed for 2-3 pages and may or may not get help.

I dont disagree it would be nicer to help the person even though they posted int he wrong place. However i also agree it is getting way out of hand with people not reading/ignoring forum rules and posting in the wrong place day in and day out. If everyone who posted in the Dev forum got their question answered with out being given flak for it then no one would post in Q&A.

I look at it as a "right of passage". Hopefully after posting in the wrong forum they learn and in the future post in the correct place. I think they also learn what is expected of members (since they probably didnt read or chose to ignore stickies since there is one in all caps saying it isnt a questions/general forum)

so in short sure they could be nice about it, answer the questions and send them on there way, but then why would anyone follow the rules and post in QA.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
Not to mention he not only posted this in Dev but also QA and I believe General also. When I see multiple threads by the same person about the same thing that's an automatic "no answer fo you!"
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egzthunder1:
This thread is a Question in Q&A. Either answer the guy's concern or not, but stop flaming...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jajolalo:
Thank you All After research i downloaded the new update in a zip file and than i went into recovery wiped everthing and applied the new update it is now running smooth. SORRY FOR ME SOUNDING LIKE A BABY ITS JUST That my family is poor and they got me this for my birthday so i cant pay the 100 bucks for a new one but i fixed it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pscalett:
^^^ Did you just stick with the 2.2 update or go back to an earlier version? I'm trying to figure out how to go back to an earlier version so I can root my phone. The sneaky Sprint employee updated mine OTA while I was picking it up yesterday.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jajolalo:
I did the new update!!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jajolalo:
Alright I was wrong it didn't work but thx

for all it help
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgarozzo:
I just got my EVO back after taking advantage of their black tie protection. I was without my EVO for 1 month and in that time I've fallen behind on the curve. So, what can I do now?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlrdxrevengex:
do you have froyo 2.2???? grr i did not have root on 2.1 but now i think i want it but if i have to wait then i wait
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
If you arent on 2.2 (i will assume you arent since you got unrevoked working) DONT UPDATE. I would then work on getting NAND unlocked. to do this look in the development forum one of the stickies has a link to Toastcfh's method part 2. Follow those instructions (i know it may look hard but just go one step at a time) once NAND is unlocked you can put on custom ROMS/Kernels.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgarozzo:
Reason why I was without my Evo for a month was I screwed it up trying full unlock. I'm gonna sit until someone roots 2.2. Do I need Nand unlock to remove bloatware?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
Yep you need nand unlock to remove bloatware. or you can flash a rom that has it already removed. seriously though if you look at the wiki under tutorials there is a super easy new way to root and unlock nand, i think it is called easiest way to root with out a gui ... or something like that
[Vibrant General] GuardianFlash:
It won't display all my subscriptions just like my old Nexus One. Also would show them with zero videos.
[Vibrant General] stepinmyworld:
yeah that is very annoying. I would like iphone's youtube version because you can comment on the videos as well... even though iphone doesnt have the ability to watch high qaulity videos over 3g, i would keep androids features but i do get annoyed with my subscriptions not showing up. I think about 10 show and that's all and yeah no videos show that they uploaded.
[Desire General] lisboapcs:
I have ext3 and running A2SD already and what I want to enable dalvik2cache to sdcard, it means I want to run A2SD++. Can someone help me to to this? Please!!!

I am using .NeoPhyTe ROM 1.4a
[Vibrant Accessories] spiz516:
Samsung Vibrant Car Mount/Home Dock​

I posted this over at androidforums.com but I thought I'd put here just in case anyone is interested.

The total cost of this can vary, but it's still inexpensive. If you are like me and like sleek and not bulky, then this is for you.

Disclaimer: You take full responsibility of anything you do to your phone listed in this guide.

** Note: The desk mounting portion of this only works if you have a glass/smooth plastic surface **

Materials/Parts

Samsung Vibrant

Extra back cover OR Gel Case from TMobile ($16.99)

Garmin Suction Cup Mount ($14.23 +shipping from Amazon.com)

Found here: Amazon.com: Garmin Suction Cup Mount: Electronics

Something that can cut hard plastic (Gardening clippers work fine)

J-B Weld ($5 at most stores)

So the total cost of the parts if you decide to use the Gel Case from TMobile is approximately $40. If you're like me and don't need one of the extra back covers that your phone came with, then that will save you 17 bucks, bringing the total to $23. Not bad for how amazing this works.

Steps:

1. Take your Garmin Suction Cup Mount apart by removing the suction part from the clip (just pull it off).

2. Take something that can cut plastic. I used some gardening clippers, but you could choose to use a utility knife, small saw, etc...

3. Cut the parts as shown below.

4. Then clean the two surfaces that you'll be applying J-B Weld. Any oils can cause less strength in the weld. So clean off the extra back cover or the gel case, whichever you decide to use.

5. Apply J-B Weld as shown below.

6. Quickly place this onto your desired location on the extra back cover (or gel case) and hold firmly for approximately a minute. The weld will form and be very hard within 4 minutes, so be somewhat quick, but also careful. Picture of mine below:

7. That's it! I let mine sit for an hour or so before even testing, but at that point, it was plenty strong enough.

This can now mount to your windshield or a glass/smooth plastic or metal desk/table at home. With the brightness of this screen, sunlight is never an issue when mounted on the windshield. Be creative and put it wherever you want. More pictures below!

-------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for checking out this guide. I hope it helps someone or at least sparks some creativity to come up with something similar. Later!
[Vibrant Accessories] YellowGTO:
Thats pretty sweet. How hard is it to get the case on and off your phone? Don't want to much wear on my phone.
[Vibrant Accessories] DKYang:
That looks nice, but since I also have a glass desk. I just used another "car mount" and used it as a desk dock. Too lazy to do the diy, lol.
[Vibrant Accessories] spiz516:
Well for me, I just leave the back cover in the suction mount. I felt that when I had to put the entire phone back into it, I was pressing a little too hard for my liking. So I find it easier to just take the phone off the back cover, and then put the extra one on the phone whenever I take it out.

Kind of a pain, and I probably won't do it forever, I just happened to have all of these parts so it didn't cost me anything. Plus it works really well for now.
[Vibrant Accessories] kizer:
Nice idea, but honestly I see people breaking their phones taking it on and off if they do it often.

I'll give you 9.5 for creativity thou. :D
[Vibrant Accessories] spiz516:
Hehe thanks. :p

Yeah that's why I remove the phone from the back cover, rather than removing the phone + back cover. I found that I was pulling/pushing a little too hard than what felt comfortable.

Just thought I'd spark some creativity in people!
[Vibrant Accessories] glensta:
Thanks for the creative idea.....MacGuyver-esque......but......I LOVE VELCRO~
[Vibrant Accessories] Arr MiHardies:
Just you wait till my order of friendly plastic comes in from amazon...

I'd say Tmo rubberized case and velcro in v2.0.

just my .02
[Vibrant Accessories] Janis:
You can also stick one of these clips to your phone. It's less bulky, and it's multi-purpose-able. I just love this setup, so I preach it wherever I can.

This idea would work really well with one of the slider cases. I'm not so sure I trust myself to be popping the back cover off in the car to reduce the bulk for non-dock use. It's brilliant DIY, though. I really like it.
[Vibrant Accessories] all4degame:
well, I give A for effort, but that is GHETTO AS HELL.
[Vibrant Accessories] Masterface7:
Hi thanks for the great tips. I made my own pretty quickly. I think ill go back and make another one with better parts eventially. I cut the top off of my rubber silicon case so my phone can slide in and out easily.
[Vibrant Accessories] ecardwell1:
I bought two of these. They were $10 each with free shipping on eBay. Sorry that I cannot place link, I guess I am not allowed because of my low posts rate. Just do a search for "Windscreen Car Mount for Samsung i9000 Galaxy S". Very stable in the car and phone will not slip out.
[Vibrant Accessories] spiz516:
I'll take a picture of it mounted in my car... it actually looks better than any mounting system out there. Much better in fact.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
This was created for the Vibrant, but I see no reason why it would not be compatible with the Captivate. Enjoy.

This Metamorph changes the status bar and status icons to the Sense theme. Make sure you are using the latest version of Metamorph (1.9.13 or higher). I'm not responsible for anything you do to your phone.

WARNING:

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled in Settings -> Applications -> Development.

If you're using the standard TouchWiz launcher, this morph will remove the Messaging icon from the bottom dock. To get it back, open your applications, press menu, view type, customizable. Menu again, then edit. Find the Messaging icon, drag it back into the dock, then menu, save, menu, view type, alphabetical grid (or whatever you had it on before.)

[Captivate Themes and Apps] Anthonok:
looks so much better now
[Captivate Themes and Apps] asrrin29:
does this change the battery so that it is actually accurate?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dontshakepandas:
Thanks for the tip. I really like how this looks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
Yeah, the battery uses the HTC scale to show level, not the completely retarded Samsung scale that always shows damn near full.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dontshakepandas:
This might be a dumb question, but I'm new to android so I'm gonna fire away anyways. I really prefer the way this made my notification bar look, but there is one thing that seriously bothers me up there, although it isn't directly related to this thread.

Is there any way to change the notifications for apps in the notification bar on the left side? In particular, I hate the way the juicedefender notification looks, and would like to change it to something... less colorful. Is this possible?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
Short answer: Yes, if you're dead set on doing it.

Long answer: Metamorph wasn't really designed for Market apps, but it has been done. You would need to create an icon, and then build a metamorph zip around it. You could also pull the app from your computer, remove the icon, replace it with a new one, and resign the zip file. If you're not sure what you're doing, both methods will be a pain in the ass, but luckily there are plenty of tutorials on XDA.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dontshakepandas:
Thanks, I sent you a PM to prevent the further derailment of the original thread.

On a more on topic note, every time I look at my notification bar I like it more and more. The battery icon does seem more accurate, and it didn't affect the brightness control swipe action.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Aftashok:
this WILL work if using a launcher separate from TouchWiz right? i use LauncherPro, and just making completely sure before i try using it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
Yes. This modifies the system framework, not the launcher. Technically this morph will work on any HDPI android phone.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Smallsmx3:
What do you mean by not supporting market apps? I can't put apps on the home screen?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] asrrin29:
is there anything special I need to do to calibrate the battery icon? I'm at 67% battery right now and it's showing the same scale as the old samsung icon (i.e a sliver shaved off to denote the battery is between 50%-75%)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kmthomas2009:
Do I sideload this onto my captivate or how do I install it??
[Captivate Themes and Apps] benclayton:
Install Metamorph from the market, and move the file in the download link to your phone. There will be a folder called AndroidThemes on the root level of your SD card. Open Metamorph and locate it, the hit extract. After it extracts, select the applications you'd like to modify, or just hit Apply All.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kmthomas2009:
Thanks Man I Got It And It Was Completly Easy :) Greatly Appreciated
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mrpiggae:
This looks great, thanks for the info. : )
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
I was explaining to a previous poster that Metamorph wasn't designed to be used to theme market apps. You can put whatever you want on the home screen. This morph just replaces the images. It doesn't change functionality at all.

It's possible that the Samsung battery fiasco runs deeper than just the images. I thought mine was showing a more realistic scale, but I could easily be mistaken.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Kaik541:
I ran this and my phone just cut to black after applying 4/4 and now won't start?

edit: sorry, stupid, gave it time, pulled the battery, restarted... it's working fine... I just got a big over-anxious
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
It will soft reboot after applying the framework-res package. As long as it's allowed to run, you will be fine. If you did something stupid, such as pull the battery, you'll need to push framework-res.apk to /system/framework over ADB from recovery in order to get it to boot again.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Kaik541:
I sat waiting for a solid 5 minutes with nothing happening. I tried holding down the power button for varying periods of time, to no avail. Plugged in/unplugged USB: nothing...

Eventually said "**** it" because it wasn't responding to anything, and pulled the battery. Replugged the battery, booted fine, the new framework installed just fine.

edit: I should note that I have removed the standard e-mail.apk (not the gmail one) and it tossed out a comment saying it wasn't there, but I assumed it would just skip it and move on (that's the only thing I could imagine that would cause it to sit at the black screen for so long)
[Captivate General] itszcharlie:
Ok, so everynow and then, My text message fails. So I have to hold it until the menu pops up and i click resend.

Can Someone build a simply little auto resend in the event the text fails to send?

That would be greatly appreciated.
[Captivate General] designgears:
Its called AT&T...

and this needs to be in the general section...
[Captivate General] itszcharlie:
not the point. When you try to send a message, you want it to actually be sent. I dont want to do it manually(im lazy). i want it to be done automatically. and how do i move this to general?
[Captivate General] jeff.leonard:
When your message fails, what is the reason? I get failures for not using a 10 digit number just for one of my contacts. The contact is stored using a 10 digit number though. I can't seem to get it fixed and it is actually a very big problem for me since the contact is my wife!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedude_abides:
I currently have 2.2 with the leaked radio update but the location services and gps are not functioning at all so I wish to go back to stock. Is it possible to go back to 2.1 stock using the PB31IMG.zip file from the Hboot menu? How do I downgrade the radio back to 1.0? Does the radio need to be downgraded before or after I flash back to 2.1? or does the radio downgrade matter?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentoe:
Once your radio is flashed to 2.05 (newest version) you can put any rom you'd like on your incredible. You could even install your old 2.1 and it will work fine (if not better) than your old radio.

You should just be able to go to clockwork mod recovery and restore your last nandroid backup or get another 2.1 rom off http://incredibleroms.com
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedude_abides:
Thank you! I used the nandroid backup I had and everything is good. Is it possible to take the radio back down to stock if I ever need to?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vantagejuan:
the new radio is the stock radio. it's just the radio from the most recent OTA. You shouldn't ever have a need to downgrade.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedude_abides:
so no need to have concern accepting any OTA from verizon if I manually applied the leaked radio update?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TNS201:
I believe the update will look at your hboot version.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedude_abides:
If I understand correctly the hboot version is changed when I root? So applying the PB31IMG.zip will take me back to the original hboot?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theaustins513:
Just do a wipe/factory reset and it clears the GPS issue up!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
This was created for the Vibrant, but I see no reason why it would not be compatible with the Captivate. Enjoy.

This Metamorph will remove the colored tiles from the TouchWiz3.0 app menu. Make sure you are using the latest version of Metamorph (1.9.13 or higher). I'm not responsible for anything you do to your phone.

WARNING:

You will have to reset your homescreen widgets after applying this morph. Not sure why, but they will all pop up with the "Problem loading widget" image.

Worked fine on my captivate. Have not noticed any side effects so far. I really hated those damn backgrounds and am so happy they are gone.

Thanks for the post.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] caelestis2:
awesome. Thanks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
How do you reset the homescreen icons?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
What do you mean? Are you trying to go back to stock?

If you're talking about the widgets. Just drag them to the trash and re-apply them if you get the "Problem loading Widget" box.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
No I want to use them. I was going based on what you said here.

I loaded them in morph and don't know how to reset my homescreen widgets. I don't have any samsung widgets so I am not sure if it would be something in there.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
I guess I am doing something wrong. I thought that was part of the process because I loaded the zip in morph and my backgrounds didn't change. I didn't see the apply all button. It is all good. I guess I am used to things loading after clicking the one button. Still new to android lol.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Bernardos70:
This is exactly what I was looking for, but I can't get it to work with metamorph. The error is the following:

"The theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could be missing, or is not correctly written (contact theme creator)."

My metamorph version 1.9.8.14
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
Select "Pick existing theme" navigate to the EVO_Blackbar folder (Should be in /sdcard/AndroidThemes/ and select EVO_Blackbar_v1.3.xml. It should work. If you downloaded it from your phone, the names get messed up and cause that problem.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MikeyMike01:
Is there any way to add the backgrounds to another launcher? Like Launcher Pro or ADW or something?

I love the uniformity and the aesthetics of the nice uniform grid.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] renster721:
There are still some stock apps with tiles behind them. Is it possible to remove those as well?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rwon:
OO I like this theme, may have to try it out when I get home. I'm one of the few people who actually likes touchwiz, makes it feel more familiar (I came from an iphone 3gs):D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] mikeypopps:
Not trying to thread jack or anything but I see everyone including major reviews complaining about touchwiz. Whats so bad and different about it compared to stock android. What are somethings you would recommend I changed to stock for?

I know our menu system is slide right or list instead of pull up.

(I like it better that way cause you can customize it)

We have the 3 customizable of 4 buttons on the bottom of the screen.

(Better use of real estate)

Our system and menu is black with white highlight but doesn't it make more sense considering the display and black using less battery.

(saves battery/ I modded my whole system to black menus pull downs and such)

And finally the backgrounds on Icons.

(At least its uniform, have you seen some of the ugly Icons people make)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gerbig:
Froyo compatibility

For what it's worth, I morphed this over Cognition 2.2 beta 5.5 and it seems to have worked just fine. I'm not sure if anything else has changed, but I've gotten rid of those ugly tiles :) I imagine it would work for any of the JI6 ROMs....
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cappysw10:
Installed on stock JH7, works just fine.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MikeyMike01:
You get 3 icons instead of Four (or even five).

That's the big problem I have with TouchWiz... I can't put Phone, Messaging, Email and Browser in the dock.
[Desire General] 007shaolin:
Ive installed Froyo neo rom, is there an easy way to check that i got installed apps2sd or not?
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
Do you have an EXT3 partition with 0MB swap? If yes, and the ROM supports it, then yes.
[Desire General] 007shaolin:
But how do i check that i got installed apps on EXT3

Yes ive done that. But how do i check that i got installed apps on EXT3? and how many space left on ext3...
[Desire General] AndroHero:
download quick system info off the market ;) it will tell u how much space is taken up on you ext partition :)
