this is helpful..thanx for da help yah:)

im still trying to rooting my legend...

and by the way,sumone want to trade my legend for his HTC HD2 2.2 Froyo with sense...

Is it worth it??
[Legend General] HpX:
I would not have done it. Legend looks å lot better. HTC HD2 is optimized for WinM. And i dont think everything works equal well with Froyo on that phone.

https://esupport.fcc.gov/ccmsforms/form2000.action?form_type=2000A

The above url is for all users to legally voice their dissatisfaction in AT&T's practices ranging from: crippling HSUPA, defective GPS, Froyo 2.2 delay, etc. in this awesome device.

Considering all the replies the Captivate forum alone handles it would be interesting to see how soon AT&T would react to forms submitted by each of you????????
[Captivate General] hayesb2:
I just filed my complaint...everyone else should file complaints as well!!!
[Captivate General] thindery:
Sent in my complaint. :D
[Captivate General] warri:
agreed sent in mine, though I doubt ATT will rectify this issue!
[Captivate General] ctalbot:
You do realize the last two are the result of Samsung. Nothing AT&T can do here. The GPS issue affects all Galaxy S devices worldwide. In addition Samsung has yet to release an official Froyo build to any carrier.

Now, to help your argument you could add:

AT&T has crippled/disabled front facing camera.

AT&T prevents side loading of apps.
[Captivate General] bluetoothless:
Am fully aware, but they certainly could apply similar pressure to Samsung as they have to Steve Jobs's ummmmm...... bumper..........reception issues?

ETC. was an invite to fill in the blank for all others.
[Captivate General] ashoooo:
Doesn't it have an AT&T branding on it though? If so, then for all intensive purposes, AT&T is liable for its shortcomings. Although, I'm not a lawyer.
[Captivate General] ViniD:
Plus have you seen the ATT videos on youtube they show how they ruggedly test their phones to bring only the best ones through which they release on ATT. This why they dont allow side loading. If they do so much testing on the phones they must have caught this earlier.

EXCHANGE your phone.

sammy has released an updated firmware for the captivate that fixes 99% of these problems
[Captivate General] jmreed97:
Source??? I call BS.
[Captivate General] systoxity:
yeah i think he was mistaken, i just checked my phone and i have firmware update 1, may have been because i ran odin 1 click though and it may have auto installed it. in any case though, if you do have problems with the phone, in general it is a good idea to have it replaced.

i sent a complaint form though :). power.

[Desire General] priestnot:
Hi there i hope some one can help.

I have a htc desire and i updated it to froyo, has i did this i also got new software that i wanted to try, like Task Manager and Startup Auditor.

I was under the impression that i could kill some of the apps that started on boot, but i think i migth have a problem because time to time (like once or twice a day) it restarts the senseUI (i think its a reset white screen with HTC writen and the senseUI boot).

So here is the list of apps that iam currently kiling on boot with Startup auditor:

* aCar (not from froyo or HTC)

* Facebook

* Facebook for HTC sense (i alredy tried to turn this one off but still it has the problem)

* Flicker

* FM Radio

* Gallery

* Google Mail

* gTasks

* Maps

* Music

* News

* News and Weather

* PC Synchronization

* Peep

* Stocks

* YouTube

In the Task Manager

I never kill (Ignore list)

* Calendar Snooze

* Messages

* Startup Auditor

* 3G Watchdog

* Foot Prints (it keeps on starting again and again so i added to the ignore)

* Google Partner Setup (dont know what this is so i ignored it)

I hope some one can help me.. Maby telling me what from that list i cannot kill

Or if there is some other way to kill the apps...

Thanks
[Desire General] jamesmcuk:
I think it puts the white load screen on if you kill an app thats linked to a widget on the active home screens. therefore be careful of killing news and weather apps. I use Advanced Task Killer and have no probs
[Desire General] priestnot:
the only widgets that i have are:

clock with weather and calendar all from htc power control...

I am realy realy lost here... It does not make sense that htc makes some aplications run on boot like stock if i dont use them...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ambegojapes:
seriously?

if you want info on whether or not the ringtone/external speaker issue has been solved, check the dev threads. If there is a breakthrough they will all have updated it already since its a problem plaguing all rhodium devices.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cheffe76:
Ring tones are working

Ring tones are fixed in the latest build as of 08/30/2010, i.e. sound is working in general.

In my case to actually get the handset to ring on incoming calls, I had to conduct the following steps (before that only the silent option was available as a "ring tone"):

go to settings -> Dev tools -> media scanning. Perform media scan. After that the OS restarted and the phone started ringing. Yeah...

cheers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] cheffe76:
BTW, I just noticed that the media scanning has to be conducted each time one the handset is turned on, otherwise the phone is not ringing.

Can anybody confirm that?

In addition I am not able change the ring tones in settings -> sound -> incoming calls. Why is that and can this be changed?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] signal34:
Has anyone found that if they use their own ringtone, an incoming call only rings once? I've tried converting my ringtones from .mp3 to .ogg but it still only rings once. If I switch to a stock ringer, the an incoming call rings over and over like it should.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] edlokien:
ringtones

my tounch pro2 with the latest blazin build will use any mp3 i chose to use as a default ringtone and will ring more than once and play the full song. But on the other hand my other cell has all the same setup but only shows silent only, so it could be just the headset itself and not the build.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
It's the card. Format it with the HP tool. Full format. Also, BLAZN is pretty outdated (9.28 was the last update).

Glad you have it fixed. However it may be because you have your SIM in the Uni whilst you are trying to flash. I found this happened when I was (incorrectly) trying to flash a ROM of a different language/region.

[Vibrant General] larryccf:
first, found out that buyer's remorse or return period on phones that Tmo ships to the buyer, ie purchased online or on the phone, is 20 days, not the 14 days for phones purchased at a store

2nd, i called in to ask if they were willing to extend the return period, stating that i was going to return it this friday, but if an OTA update did come out and fixed the GPS issue, i'd be re-ordering the phone - it might make sense to give me an extension in case that OTA did come out and did work - CSR said he would research it and get back to me

i also told em that as it is now, this phone doesn't leave the house, as without GPS it's no good to me ( i generally have to make 2 - 4 cross town trips to client's location and the MT3G gets me there, spot on everytime

he just called back, saying the part about my return period was actually 20 days, and they were extending it another 30 days to Sept 16th and he was putting a note in my acct to that effect - i noted his name & operator id

FWIW - for those of you like me, love the phone but need a working GPS, this is a compromise solution or a momentary solution
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
Hmm. I bought my first Vibrant online and the replacement over the phone. They told me the exchange period for each transaction was 14 days.
[Vibrant General] dq13:
I am so lucky. I keep reading from almost everyone that their GPS doesn't work. I changed my GPS server settings to google satelites and works perfect and super quick to lock, and I don't even need it LOL. I personaly don't like to use the phone as GPS since I am always texting and hate to interrupt the navigation to text or viceversa, so I just have a Garming and deal with two devices, works better for me that way
[Vibrant General] zoid_99:
You may get a lock but it's not accurate. Download GPS Status and tell me how many birds it gets a fix on.
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
this is getting old. just cause yours is one way, doesn't mean they all are. i can try your app, but using the *#*#1472365#*#* code and using gps test i get 11 in the list and 8 connected. but i'm sure 8 isn't accurate, even though the gps gets me typically within 5-10'...

as for the op, i'm glad tmob is working with people, cause this is an amazing phone. i hope samsung does get a fix out there so everyone's gps works.
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
Actually, for me, it's pretty accurate when using the Google Nav app. Really, never had a problem with it in real world use, but can't get a single lock with GPS Status indoors.
[Vibrant General] dq13:
I downloaded it, it says Error 6(m) [whatever that means] and fix/sat is 2/8

So I don't know what that means LOL, but I guess its off by 6 meters and it only locks to 2 sats out of 8... so I guess its not working :P, but its all good, like I said, I don't care for GPS on the phone
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
California gives you 30 days to return the phone.
[Vibrant General] spiz516:
TMobile is generally willing to help, so if you call and ask for an extension in order to wait for the GPS fix, they'll likely extend it.
[Vibrant General] j0hnZ:
My MT3G last night got 0 fixes on 13 satellites bounced around between like 9 and 12 satellites for about 10 minutes. Loaded Google Maps took a few minutes to show where I was, didn't bother to tell me how accurate it was because it wasn't close to my location.

Navigation takes pretty much forever as well.
[Vibrant General] Die_T-mobile:
Samsung Galaxy S is a Lemon!!!

I just got off the phone with T-mobile for the second time and the customer service rep says T-mobile knows of no problems with the GPS and she goes on to tell me she has the same phone and it works great. She then tells me to dial *#9999# and to read off my software version. That is the newest version she says and you can send in your phone under warranty and get a refurbished one. Forget You Lady and Forget T-mobile. The Samsung Galaxy S is a LEMON!!
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
LOL, i still have 3 weeks left on my remorse period, and this is before extension.

;)
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
No such extension for me

I tried asking for an extended return period, too, and found no joy. Also the rep confirmed what the previous rep had told me about my online and over-the-phone orders: The period is 14 days.

My 14 days on this, my second Vibrant, is almost up. So we made arrangements for me to return it tomorrow by UPS and for T-Mobile to undo my two-year contract extension associated with the purchase. I could not make that huge commitment for a phone with a faulty GPS, even though the other features of the Vibrant are compelling.

So for the time being, I will return to using my old G1 while I await an off-contract solution. Meanwhile, I expect to monitor closely the GPS issue on the Samsung Galaxy S, including how the rollout goes with other carriers.
[Vibrant General] jrwingate6:
The ROM in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=743769 fixed the GPS issue. I don't expect all of you to flash your phone in order fort the GPS to work but this is reassurance that Samsung can easily fix the issue.
[Vibrant General] dex1701:
All I'd say is be careful with this. I was told the same thing...that I had 20 days because I bought the phone through T-Mobile's web site. When I called, however, I was assured that it was 14-days and I was on day 17, and therefore SOL if I wanted to return the device.
[Vibrant General] Genesis3:
My gps works perfectly.... in fact it cold starts MUCH faster than my hd2 does....
[Vibrant General] XfooYen:
I had 5 days left on my 30 days to return (I live in Cali), and could not get an extension. I returned the phone for a full refund, no restocking fee, and returned upgrade, so I'm happy I guess. I'd rather wait with my money in pocket. Who knows when Samsung will actually put out a fix for this thing and who knows if it will actually work. By then I'm sure the next-gen HSPA+ dual chip blah-blah will be out.

BTW, the ROM from Eugene373 had about the same results as the XDA "fix" and didn't address the compass issue.

I can only shake my head at Samsung on this one.
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
This is getting off-topic, but for the record the jury is still out on whether that ROM flash for rooted phones actually "fixed the GPS issue."

See, for example the feedback here. No offense to the developer, but we have seen other "fixes" that seemed at first to work, only to disappoint later. If someone wants to discuss the details of this "fix," there are other threads about the GPS issue.

We now return to the original topic, which is about T-Mobile's business terms.
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
Different terms (30 days) if you paid full price w/o new contract

See also the information in this thread affecting those who paid full price for the device without a new contract. They do get 30 days.
[Vibrant General] mesajoejoe:
I indeed paid full price and am going to T-mobile store today. I hope I have some luck lol fingers crossed. Will report back with my findings

Edit* So I just checked my handy dandy little book that came with my purchase. According to the book theres a difference between the 14-day period and the 30-day period. The 14-day period is if you wish to cancel your contract, upgrade extension you have the ability to do that without incurring the ETF. The 30-day is in fact your real ITEM return/exchange period. We DO have a 30-day period to return or exchange these things. You wont be able to cancel your contract but you sure as hell can return OR exchange the device. And if you do it in store you shouldnt have to get a refurb one as they should just give you a new one right on the spot. So hooray for using our intellects and reading the little contract booklet they supply us!!!!
[Vibrant General] christpuncher:
What if I bought it from an outside vendor?
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
I think your first recourse would be with whoever sold it to you, and whatever their terms are for returns and exchanges. That might range from zero -- most sellers on eBay, Craigslist etc. do not accept returns at all -- to whatever terms some authorized reseller might offer.

For example, I have heard that Costco offers 90 days to return a phone for an exchange. They usually cannot sell you a smartphone off-contract in the first place, but can only sell it to you with a new or renewed T-Mobile contract. Don't know if they have the authority to undo the contract once you make it with the carrier. The thing to remember is that the two year-contract is a much bigger financial liability than the price of the phone.

Even within T-Mobile, you typically have to handle returns within the same channel as your purchase: Online-purchase returns are handled by T-Mobile national reps; in-store-purchase returns are handled in-store.
[Vibrant General] mesajoejoe:
Went in told him I needed a exchange. He went through the normal procedure, got about 75% done then pointed to the date on my original purchase paper and was about to give me the shaft, I cut him off and said dont I have 30 days. He paused... said OH you bought it in full then proceeded to complete it. So DO not be afraid to go in and ask for your exchange you have 30 DAYS.

No matter if you bought it on contract/extension/upgrade w/e or plain bought it outright, you have 30 days for exhanges. 14 day only applies to canceling a contract/extension/upgrade w/e. But everyone has a 30day exchange guarantee it says so in your little white book you get with phone : )
[Vibrant General] larryccf:
because of some posters indicating Tmo denied the 30 day return period, i contacted Tmo via their online chat svc on their web, and asked the chat rep what the deadline date was on my new buyer's remorse return period

basically i just wanted it confirmed in some way documentable - once you're thru with the chat session, before ending, you can email yourself a copy or print a copy

i printed a copy to adobe pdf as well as emailed myself a copy, but this might be helpful to those going into a store to return - first confirm you're eligible online, then print a hard copy of the chat session

below is what my chat session looked like
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zxurian:
Used to know how to run/install custom kitchens in the WinMo scene, but I'm still learning the ins and outs of Android.

I currently have a stock EVO running 2.1, which I ran unrevoked 3 on to get root (though from reading, I understand that's not "full" root). I only have Titanium Backup, & WiFi Tether, as those are the only real reason that I wanted root.

Now I would like to upgrade to Froyo, and given all the information, I just want to be sure I have the right method.

I understand that there currently is no way to root stock 2.2.

From my current start point, is this the proper way to upgrade?

1. Obtain full root by using Simpleroot 3-click method.

2. Download stock 2.2 rom, and load onto sd card, then rename to "update.zip"

3. reboot phone and let it install 2.2

Will this let me retain the root access, and allow me to reinstall the WiFi tether and Titanium Backup while running 2.2?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
#1 - Excellent choice and right on the money!

#2 - Don't download ANY Froyo ROM that doesn't specifically say it's rooted! Also, DO NOT EVER accept any OTA updates. There are probably 8-10 2.2 Froyo ROMs in the dev section that are rooted for your delight, choose one you like the best.

#3 - Once you pick the ROM you want, put in the root of your sdcard. Then wipe followed by flash the zip from recovery.

As always, don't forget to nandroid backup FIRST!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zxurian:
Thanks for the reply!

Never use a stock provided ROM, got it :) .

Okay, so I have to use a pre-rooted custom ROM to retain root after the upgrade.

Going by the one in your signature, it looks like that's just the stock rom, that has been adjusted to retain root privlages, (which is what I'm looking for) is that correct?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zxurian:
Okay, having some trouble using the SimpleRoot method.

I've tried both the Simpleroot .1, and Simpleroot 1.47, both of them lead to the following error. When the prompt on the computer tells me to boot into bootloader, then wait for the device to prompt me to install update, I get the following message on my phone:

Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Do you want to reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes
<VOL DOWN> No

Am I already fully rooted when I ran unrEVOker?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zxurian:
don't like to bump, but would like any help if possible.

I'd like to upgrade to Froyo, and still retain my root.

Thanks!
