[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tardman91:
Is there a place or a link I can find more information about just stuff that I can do with a rooted phone BESIDES installing custom ROMs? Everything I usually find is just about ROMs. I want to just get my feet wet a little before I decide to just jump right in. For now I'm just interested in stuff I can do with plain old vanilla android once it's been rooted.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Look for apps that require root, see what they are and if you need any of them.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Here's my current list of things "to root for", I haven't yet..

Reasons to root:

Just root, nothing else:

- Adblock host file

- ClockSync

- GScripter

- Remove built-in crap (Amazon MP3)

- Screenshots

After installing recovery image

- Nandroid

After installing custom rom

- Black notification bar
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gunthy`:
Depending on where you live, you might still have warranty. For example, in Europe, the warranty is by default 2 years on the device. So it doesn't matter if you got it second hand, as long as the device still has warranty, you're OK.

Secondly, you can root your device without unlocking the bootloader. Check this thread for more info. At step 18, before doing the 2 'exit' commands, also take the time to rename /system/etc/recovery-install.sh & install + make executable a file called flash_image (google it to find a download) into /system/bin. This way you can install a custom recovery (e.g. for doing nandroid backups) and will make installing custom ROMs later a lot less painful.

A rooted stock FRF91 can already do many things, search for 'root' in the market and you can find tons of apps that require root privileges and that will run fine on stock. However, the really interesting things (like color trackball alert, firewalling, proxy support, ...) will require you to install a custom ROM.

I rooted my stock N1 with the above procedure a couple of weeks ago, and installed Cyanogen6 RC2 ROM to get some of the more advanced functionality. Been working like a charm and I've actually managed to get a lot more out of my device AND have longer battery life :)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
hmm... if you are talking about the Bell version it comes in the stock ROM

it's labelled as "Voice Dialler"

but it is not only voice dialing, when you speak to it, it comes back with search results for both software and contacts, if you execute either one, it launches the app, or it dials the contact
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravi84m:
thanks it does work:D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] siddspain:
Earlier today I change the sell code to english and ta-daaa: voice search appeared. I'm actually looking for a way to get rid of it right now ;)

You lose all your data though. So if you're gonna try it, go ahead and back up. I use Titanium back up (I don't love it, though: you have to stay by the phone waiting to give the green like* everytime an app is being re-installed).

EDIT: *light
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fatherboard:
sell code?...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] siddspain:
Hmmm, maybe that's not its name. Anyway: *#272*HHMM# change HHMM for your local time, so if it's 12:30 it should look like: *#272*1230#.

Once there, check the codes http: //samsung-firmware . webs . com / samsunglettercode . htm (remove blanks) and apply the english one.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravi84m:
i get only this page when i google sell code samsung... so i'm not sure if such a thing exist.

anyway the 272 trick doesn't work on my i9000.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] specr1:
thanks, it works but requires internet,:mad:.

Does anyone know how to make it so I can use it offline?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravi84m:
it has to get internet connection.

i think you're looking for google commands. you can just grab it from the market. but it wont work without google voice search.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] specr1:
Thanks,

Market didn't have "google commands" but it had "voice commands". Voice commands was listed as free but when i clicked on the link it said "not found"

I tried both appbrain and android market.

Anyone have the apk for voice command or google command?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nirvana388:
I'm not exactly sure why voice input was removed, probably a combination of the fact that it doesn't support french and also that Samsung stripped out the default android keyboard (which has the microphone button) and replaced it with 2 far superior keyboards: their own, and swype. I guess that's the one downside of swype is you don't get the voice input button.

However Samsung did include Vlingo for free (I'm aware that Vlingo has since become free for all phones since the updated google voice commands were announced for froyo). Vlingo is actually far better than the google voice input (at least for 1.5-2.1) as it gives you commands as well as the text entry. You can also setup the Vlingo keyboard which is essentially the stock Android 2.1 keyboard including the mic button.

From what I can tell it detects words just as well as the google service. Vlingo lets you put widgets of any size (1x1 to full screen) so this kinda makes up for the missing mic button on the google search widget.

I would imagine when the 2.2 update comes out we will have the google function back with multi language support and commands!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
well Nirvana388 beat me to it, i was going to recommend Vlingo as well :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] specr1:
Thanks, but Vlingo requires internet right? My old phones had voice recognition without the requirement of internet.

Ravi84m suggested "google commands" because it doesn't require internet??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Adevem:
first off - sorry for "necroing" the thread.

1. Download MarketEnabler - fake Australia's Telstra(?) [you require root for this step]

2. Go market and search "Google Search by Voice"

3. should be off the top of the list, download, install and bam, microphone icon :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nirvana388:
What's the problem with it requiring internet? Having internet everywhere is kind of the point of a smartphone no?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ravi84m:
you should try voice dialer by google. it works without any internet connection. but i must say Vlingo is much more accurate :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] huh-_-:
I downloaded your attached VoiceDialler.apk file but when i install it, it just says "Application Not installed"

Thanks! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miki4242:
I seem to remember that when I started Edwin (über cool voice control app!) installed from Market for the first time, it told me to install Voice Search (which wasn't on my phone) which I could do simply by clicking a button.

Videos play fine, but the audio is so distorted that it sounds like radio static. Is anyone else experiencing this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
Although I have not used CM6, I have experienced distorted audio from sources like Pandora. It's the Stagefright media codec that is interfering with Froyo. Try this command line:

For a permanent fix:

Again, I don't know if this is related to your situation specifically, but, I thought you might could give it a try. Sounds similar.
[Epic 4G General] TheBiles:
I tried contacting Cyanogen via Twitter, but he never responded. I know that the Galaxy S is listed as a supported device for CM6, but I don't know if this includes the Epic.
[Epic 4G General] ScientificOne:
Epic is a Galaxy S device..
[Epic 4G General] TheBiles:
Well yes, but it is like the black sheep of the family. I'm pretty sure a CM6 build for the Vibrant/Captivate wouldn't work on the Epic due to the hardware differences.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
The difference chances are would be minor...there is no reason why not to support it...

Reason my guess it will be minor is it would be too much hassle for samsung to create separate firmware just for 1 phone one 1 carrier when they are distributing the phone to so many companies...so chances are it will be 99% the same..
[Epic 4G General] TheBiles:
Just because Samsung's ROM is close doesn't mean the AOSP ROM will cleanly transition from one device to another without individual tweaks.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Well of course....just by the fact that it has a wimax radio means it will require tweaks...but I'm saying the tweaks will most likely be minor.
[Epic 4G General] TheBiles:
I just wanted to make sure the CM team was willing to make those tweaks and support the Epic.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Well using the Vibrant as an example...once it came out one of the devs asked for donations to get the device and work on it....I guess same will happen in this case :/
[Epic 4G General] it.:
CM6 will be the deciding factor of whether I get the epic or not.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Well then get the epic..duh ;) lol
[Epic 4G General] ImSoHungry:
Same here, especially since I already have a nexus.
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
I don't think not having Cyanogen is a dealbreaker.

Cyanogen was what made me love my Nexus, but it doesn't make a phone unlove-able. :p

As long as there is a good recovery image, optimized kernals, and theme support in the community, I'd be happy.

Then again, if he just made CM6 for the Epic, it would make things alot better.
[Epic 4G General] ImSoHungry:
That is true. I am so anxious to get this phone, I am going to keep my nexus though as my stand alone developer phone and dev android only, it is a headache to dev on my nokia n900 sometimes.
[Epic 4G General] it.:
I don't want to have to rely on Samsung for software. I've heard Touchwiz is buggy and slow and Samsung has a bad reputation for pushing out updates. The hardware on the other hand looks absolutely phenomenal and with CM6 loaded on it, it would leave other phones in the dust.
[Epic 4G General] ImSoHungry:
especially with some Frozen Yogurt, mmmm. Dont get me wrong, my Nexus is the shyt, but i miss a physical keyboard ever since i retire my Nokia N900 as my daily.
[Epic 4G General] it.:
Is there any time frame that we can expect CM6 or stock android froyo roms?
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
We don't even have full Froyo working yet..(specifically the JIT)..things take time...

As for Touchwiz being laggy isn't really true, whats lagging is the crappy RFS partition which is limiting our I/O...thus causing the lag...we have a fix for it but it still needs a bit improvement...

But for this phone chances are Samsung will support it...

Be patient..the Epic isn't even out yet...
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
I've been reading a bit about the lag... How bad is it? Like, people mention it, but is it really something to get super upset over?
[Epic 4G General] gophergun:
I can't really speak too much on it, being that I don't own one, but apparently the community fix raises the I/O performance back within the range of the Droid X. I'm not worried at all about it, personally. If Samsung doesn't fix it, the community will :p
[Epic 4G General] islanda73:
Touchwiz is blazing fast for my on my moment.
[Epic 4G General] boinger66:
i had the original galaxy S from singapore... and it had serious lag issues... like you couldnt use the phone for about 10-15 seconds... but i got the vibrant after that and it doesnt have any lag issues at all for me...
[Epic 4G General] Dman10:
What's so special about Cyanogen? I personally think Touchwiz looks awesome enough to keep.
[Epic 4G General] smashpunks:
Touch wiz ain't any less laggy1than the stock launcher..even froyos ...

Its the damn samsung Widgets that slow it down, atleast panning through home screens...

I have no slowdown throughout the o.s.

No its not that laggy if at all.. and I'm coming from a froyo n1....
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
Obviously using lots of widgets is gonna slow down the phone!

Specifically scrolling widgets.

Even on Sense, if you have lots of the Sense scrollable widgets you get some lag on homescreen.
[Epic 4G General] raiderep:
I am hoping that they do their magic for the Epic so that it will be an option for not having touchwiz in case it is not up to par.

[Epic 4G General] ForrelZ:
I don't see the huge deal with Cynogen, when I had my Evo I used Fresh's ROM and having tried both I thought it was much better, you'll have developers look at the captivate and vibrant forums it may not be Cynogen but meh as long as we have a decent ROM I could care less.
[Epic 4G General] gophergun:
For me, it's sort of an issue of future-proofing. In my experience, no one is as good as the Cyanogenmod team when it comes to getting new versions of Android to run on old hardware.
[Epic 4G General] timkdodson:
Hello, I too am looking forward to CyanogenMOD on the Epic. I have an EVO which I transitioned to my wife when I got the Epic. I just put Cyanogen on the EVO tonight since the actual release came out (not just a nightly) ... I am really jealous because it is awesome on the Evo. I am *praying* that the CyanogenMOD Team will make a build specifically for the Epic! I don't even mind giving up 4G since it apparently mostly sucks anyway, I have never gotten any good use out of it.

[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
So why do we need cyanogen for the Epic? I used it on my EVO because it made my EVO faster. Also because it was a stable froyo build before HTC beneficially released it.

But... the Epic is insanely fast as is. I don't need cyanogen to make it faster. But it would be nice to have an AOSP build and more ram free. For now, I'm content.

First things first. We need root and nand.
[Epic 4G General] richse:
We've had root since prior to release and there is no nand lock so these things have been done. Odin works so now all we need is a stable recovery and CM 6 and/or some other roms.
[Epic 4G General] rawsoup:
the only problem with cyanogen is that as with the evo 4g, their is still no wimax or hdmi (oh wait we don't need that anyway) support
[Epic 4G General] timkdodson:
CyanogenMOD is superior to TouchWiz. BTW there is no nand lock on this phone!
[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
How so? Besides, Touchwiz isn't a rom. It's a launcher app which can be replaced by Launcher PRO (most likely what you'll be using with CM6).

So how is Launcher Pro on stock Epic better than Launcher Pro on an EVO with CM6? Obviously there is extra RAM from TW not being loaded... but what else?

I dislike some of the AOSP apps. Mainly the dialer. I like the dialer app on the Epic.

I still don't see what the big deal is.
[Epic 4G General] shep211:
I dont think you will be able to port cm6.1 thats for the sgs/captivate/vibrant. Cm6 uses custom kernel and it will not support the hardware changes in the epic. They would have to write cm6 just for the epic. CM team said they are only making cm6 roms for the vibrant. sgs\captiavte can use vibrant roms so not a big issue but epic cant.

You may want to ask eugene373 if he can cook for the epic. His rom is super fast and has the best of asop and samsung apps.

[Epic 4G General] rufflez2010:
I kinda agree with you. I put froyo on my hero cause sense bogged the crap out of it. I'm struggling to find a reason to root this phone. I have root apps that I purchased, but they aren't really necessary. I used cachemate on the hero just to create space, now I still have 300mb free space with a few 3d games and all the sweet emulators which run amazingly on this phone. Wish there was a free psx emulator, but oh well.
[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
The PSX emulator is almost not worth buying. FF7 works quite well.... but most of the games I want to play don't run well. The emulator has not been updated since its release. I'm guessing the dev doesn't care about it.

Regardless, the phone is freakin fast as hell. I'll probably root my phone to use rooted apps... but not to flash roms.
[Epic 4G General] timkdodson:
I guess we have to agree to disagree then. The CM total rom is SO much different... I really like it. It breathed new life into my EVO. I am fairly new to the Android scene, but I rejoiced when the final CM6 for EVO came out. I tried some of the nightlies but they weren't stable enough. The full cM6 version, however, is incredible. I can't give you an exact reason - it just seems faster and better written, and I like the look and feel better.

I actually do like the dialer program that comes with the Epic better than CM6's, but I did turn off TouchWiz in favor of ADW (?) I have my sim card out and phone off right now so I can't be sure that is the correct name.

Anyway... I really want CM6 for the Epic. If you don't then why are you posting in this thread? If you prefer touchwiz then good for you.
