[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
That's alot of steps. If you don't have side loading enabled already then you should. All you need to do is go under the vibrant games. Buy one. It texts your phone and then you download from the text. Done!
[Captivate General] V DidDy 210:
you can always use marketenabler, set it to t-mobile and then purchase to your hearts content
[Captivate General] lost2030:
I have all the try before you buy games that they offer for the Vibrant. They run smoothly on the captivate.
[Captivate General] SWINGR:
DUH!!! I just skipped to step 1, didnt see that part. Thanks.
[Captivate General] lakergirl21:
Ok...so I did this a week or so ago and it worked perfectly, but now I can't get it to work. Once I email the link to myself I get the message, "Sorry, this game is not available for your phone." I put t-mobile as carrier and vibrant for phone...is there something I'm not doing
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
Are you doing step 4 on your computer.you can't do it on your phone.you have to use wonder machine to get it on to your phone
[Captivate General] lakergirl21:
yes, I'm doing it on my computer
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
You should just open the link on your computer save it in wonder machine folder and follow the rest of the steps to install
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
Unless they changed something to were you can't so it anymore I don't know,i haven't done this in a while, plus now I have side loading enabled so this makes or a lot easier.if your rooted enable side loading (get 3rd party apps) by following instructions on the how to wiki, then when you get the sms with link you can open it right from your phone
[Captivate General] terrigan:
I believe Gameloft made it that the games need to be downloaded via a phone browser, it looks like it checks to see what device you're downloading from and if you use a computer to grab the link, it denies you with an 'Unknown' device.
[Captivate General] MasterN02:
I am having the same experience. You can no longer tell it that you have a Vibrant and download the games to your computer or the Captivate. Now we need a way to have the browser tell the server that we have Vibrants...anyone know how to do that???

On a side note, can someone post the apk of all the trials??? That shouldn't be against any rules or laws since they are free to begin with.

Also, if you purchase the games, will it then allow you to download them to your computer? If the trials are as good as they seem, I'll definitely be purchasing some of them!
[Captivate General] alfpope:
Got it

Just changing your user agent string seems to work. I installed the "user agent switcher" add-in for Firefox, then created a new user agent using a string copied from the i9000's entry in deviceatlas.com. I used the one for Android 2.1, en-us:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.1-update1; en-us; GT-I9000 Build/ECLAIR) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/530.17

Then you can just download the APK to your computer and sideload it via your preferred method whether that's ADB, wonder machine, copy to sideload-enabled phone, whatever.
[Captivate General] sremick:
Is there a work-around if regular SMS doesn't work on your phone? I use Google Voice for SMS but Gameloft won't send the link to a GV number.
[Captivate General] MMAHavok69:
GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!! This user agent works on Dolphin HD browser as well!! will buy another game in a few days to completly make sure it works (rooted with sideload enabled) but it looks the extact same as when done on my laptop with firefox and that worked for when I bought spiderman.
[Captivate General] MMAHavok69:
Yep it works! Just bought modern combat 2 and HAWX!!!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jttraverse:
I have a fully rooted EVO, now with unRevoked3 and unRevoked Forever, and wondered whether there is any rooted 2.2 ROM yet that is fully functional? By that I mean a rooted ROM that behaves like the normal EVO ROM, still gives 8mp with the camera, and lets me use the standard Android wireless tether?

I've looked at everything I can find in these forums, but so far there seems to be (imho) major drawbacks to installing one of the rooted v2.2 ROM. I'm okay so far with the 2.1 ROM since I'm rooted and everything works, but I've heard that v2.2 has much better performance in some areas, which makes me think I'd like to get to it if I could. But a ROM that drops my camera megapixels from 8 to 3mp, that kills the ability to use a non-Sprint wireless tether, may kill 4G access, and maybe some other things, doesn't seem worth the trouble.

Any suggestions, or even straightening me out as far as things I may have wrong, will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chandlerw88:
uhh I think all sense roms are fully working by now
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowRAM:
Search for the 2.2 OTA instructions. I did and it works great, 4g, etc and still rooted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ausch30:
As the others have said, all the Sense roms are fully functional. If you use one of the roms using the stock kernel (such as Fresh 3.1.0.2, which is what I'm using) your camera will have it's full resolution. As for the stock Android tether, I believe HTC did something to it or removed it in order for Sprint to charge for their tethering service. I'm pretty sure that no Sense roms (all based on the stock HTC rom) have the stock Android tether working. That being said, most roms include wireless tether and it works great so it's really not an issue.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] eidolonaria:
Hi...first time posting, so thanks in advance for your help.

Trying to keep my diamond from being used to look up pictures on the internet :eek:

I'd like to be able to keep wi-fi available for 3rd party applications like skype, but I need the browsers to go...specifically the iexplore.exe in the /windows folder which is impossible to delete.

The ideal solution would be to password protect browsers or the wi-fi connection. A text-only browser would also be great, but only if I can get rid of iexplore. If there is no other solution, I'm willing to disable or lock wifi altogether.

Are there any browser-less roms without the iexplore.exe on them, or a possible way to corrupt the integrated iexplore.exe program so its unusable? This is very important to me. If you have any ideas at all, please let me know.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hawker180:
How did you go with this?

I'm looking to do exactly the same thing.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] counterplayer:
my friend if I understand you you want to disable the Internet from the SIM to stop dialing in the net.....If thats right you can use NoData it disable the settings to make Data-Connection

for the browsers you can use opera mobile 10 and use the settings to stop showing the pictures

sry for my englisch:(
[Hero CDMA General] gorillainthemist:
Hello

Over the last eight months I have been afraid to root my phone, but finally manned up and rooted and went with cm6

So my question is this...what are some must have apps for me to get the ultimate performance out of my phone? Any specific launchers, battery apps etc...
[Hero CDMA General] D3FAULT:
In my experience, using applications and mods don't work well for me and don't seem to ever have a positive effect on my phone for performance/battery.

One thing I will tell you NOT to do, and it is a common thing, is use a Task Killer. They don't help improve battery life as some say. It's actually argued that it makes it worse.

You can try turning JIT on, and if it's stable for you, then that is supposed to help performance.

(Settings > CM Settings > Performance > Enable JIT) Requires reboot.
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
A must have is collins_ph battery tweak, getting ridiculous battery life with his tweak (100 or so hours)

Few of my favorites, chrome to phone, voice actions and adb wireless

I do use task killer but autokill is off, I use it when an app freezes
[Hero CDMA General] danaff37:
+ 1 on chrome to phone and voice actions. And it's not froyo our even root specific, but awesome drop is a must have as well, I think anyways. Also, I couldn't live without swype or google voice.
[Hero CDMA General] Dono74:
suggestions

+1 Though I'm not a big poster on these forums, I read constantly everyday and am ALWAYS tinkering with different roms,kernels,settings,etc. First and foremost, are you using CM6 or CM6 RC1? I would suggest RC1 if your not already on it. I have been on and off the task killer bandwagon but currently don't use any kind of task management. I don't feel its necessary on froyo and have had good success without it.

Flash google gaaps if you dont have them already if you need gmail and such.

My must haves are ROM Manager, Wireless tether, Beautiful widgets, Chrome to phone, Handcent and as for a browser I use Xscope. X scope is nice cause it has a decent file manager built in, a task manager,(Which I dont use) Download-able themes and a bunch of other goodies as well. OH And I cant forget doodle jump! LOL!

I also am using the Decad3nce V8 kernel but unless you know what your doing I would stay with the stock kernel.

Some have had luck with collins battery tweek, although I have not, (Probably cause I'm not smart enough to set it up! LOL!)

I have used Jit on and Jit off but I haven't really seen much of a difference. I don't think we really have the hardware to make good use of Jit. Although I have google ****s Im kind of a minimalist when it comes to my Hero so I dont like to add too much crap on it!

Good Luck!
[Hero CDMA General] unCoRrUpTeD:
chrome to phone is awesome. I use it all the time to send directions to my phone for navigation. Although I haven't used it lately AppBrain is very useful. I don't like ADW Launcher, so I have Launcher Pro Plus,I also installed Beautiful Widgets and Extended Controls which make my homescreen look good. If you can find the apk for fancy widget it also replicates the HTC weather clock, but is no longer in the market.

[Hero CDMA General] Antdro!d:

[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
Send web pages, links, text, directions to your phone from your computer - comes in handy when you don't use adb like me and you can send threads of whatever you are wanting to download... or if you're reading something before work and have to go you can send the link to your phone, etc...

Launcher Pro Plus is definitely a must have for me. Although it's a paid app it's definitely worth the few dollars to buy it. The only pro's to the paid version are the sense-like widgets but it's worth it to support the dev.

if your under warranty then of course its free!

also make sure you flash a stock rom, then flash the stock-SPL back, otherwise they won't fix it.

in indonesia about US$50-$75
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2skater:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonny4911:
go into the tri colour bootloader screen

and it shouldnt say OliNex anymore

and it should say 0.72.0000

and obviously the stock rom is easy enough to recognise

I have an HD2 with the latest stock HK rom: 1.72.831.1 WWE. The built in HTC keyboard was working fine for a while, but now T9 doesnt work and I cant use it to enter chinese anymore. All I can use it for is to enter standard english. I've tried everything I can think of, checked all the settings and searched online but i've found nothing.

Has anyone come across this problem before? Ideally, does anyone have a cab of the standard keyboard with simplified chinese support I can install, replacing the now non working one on my phone?

Thanks.

Can anyone who's seen the internals of the G1 comment on the feasability of putting a G2 style upwards flipping mechanism in the G1? I guess it'd be hard and probably impossible, but if anyone can manage it, I'm offering a reward of 10 awesome points. 11 if they post a guide too.
[G1 General] xile6:
Well never happen the g1 isn't made right for that kinda flip.
[G1 General] androidcues:

The G1 is upwards sliding... when your phone is in horizontal layout the screen slides up... revealing a keyboard beneath.

The G2 is upwards sliding...in horizontal layout screen slides up... revealing a keyboard beneath.

the g1 slides out to the left then up. The g2 slide up. Its a different kind of setup plus its on both the left and right of the g2

[G1 General] mejorguille:
look at the engadget article one more time. They said that it was being jammed up and that its not the way it's supposed to look.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
They didn't say it was being *jammed* up, they said it was being *pulled* up.

Hopefully this is a straight slide and not some insanely delicate multi-vector weakness B.S. I don't like how it appears to have come out of its track like that... if it can be pulled out like that, it IS a BAD SIGN.

You really have to wonder WTF is in the heads of these manufacturers. Is there something particularly terrible about having RAILS between the two parts to keep everything aligned and moving in a straight line? The DREAM was *OK* (but still not *great*) in this regard. We want DURABILITY, not insanity! And it would also be nice to have a ridge with a rubber damper around the screen to protect it from being dropped... but I guess that would reduce the number of replacements and repairs they can sell on devices that get broken through normal use.

Enough with the style and light weight. We want FUNCTIONALITY and DURABILITY! Give it a THICK METAL CASE. Quadruple the thickness of the glass. Protect the glass with rubber dampers and a ridge. I want something MILITARY GRADE and I'm willing to PAY for it -- and I think you will find that nobody worries about upping the price by $1 for ***ALL*** the extra materials it takes.
[G1 General] Ace42:
lol

well if you want all that youll need to use one of big rotary phones with the antenna and hiddn dial-pad instead. i promise you that it will be 100x more durable than this, one drop of the G2 and say good bye, but one drop from G1 and she comes home safe.
[G1 General] jubeh:
What is it with these idiots, really?

I understand the ones who want to keep their device relevant by upgrading their OS to the most current one even if it's just basic funcionality, but wanting to physically transform one device into another.

Reminds me of that other thread with the guy that wanted to turn his phone into a gimped, tiny tablet.
