[Vibrant General] niftydl:
You could try backing up and doing an ODIN flash to KA6. I've had similar lockups with some builds in the past but they are fairly infrequent. Currently running stock KB1 rooted with KA6 radio and it has been smooth for a long while now.

I've tried some of the 2.2.1 Roms, but I absolutely need wifi calling so I stick with stock.
[Vibrant General] FirefighterZ:
I have the same issue. On my second Vibrant running stock 2.2. About to send this one back for warranty as well. Mine will freeze from the lock screen, either stuck on the screen and the display stays on, or the screen wont come back on from idle.
[Vibrant General] inconceeeivable:
Have you tried another ROM? I thought my phone was broken with stock 2.2. Haven't had issues with Bionix.
[Vibrant General] FirefighterZ:
No other ROMs, I know there are a lot of good ones, but I shouldn't have to root my phone for it to work correctly. Within a week of this current Vibrant I was having these issues. I didn't purchase the Vibrant to flash ROMs, I bought it because of the specs to remain stock. On a side note..I was told after 3 warranty replacements within 90 days I will be able to get another phone from them.
[Vibrant General] inconceeeivable:
Yeah, know what you mean. It is silly that stock is just broken. Hopefully the OTA will be better than the Kies release. (Are they doing an OTA?)

Maybe they'll swap for a Nexus S.
[Vibrant General] texas_born:
im rooted on android 2.2 but stock rom stock modem stock everything just root. i have had the same wif issue as the op. i just go to settings>wireless settings> wifsettings and turn on wifi that way. if you notice it will say error. 90% of the time this works and you will not have to reboot. i switch from wifi to 3g a lot. i have not figured the cause just yet but this is a work around for now.

as far as deleting the bloatware i rooted and deleted all that crap like sims, and other apps that i do not/will not ever use. there is a thread on which ones are safe to delete. be careful about deleting apps that are used by google such as google talk.
[Vibrant General] inconceeeivable:
Unreal, Samsung. I wanted to sell my Vibrant, but can't get anywhere near what it's worth because of these stupid issues.
[Vibrant General] Buddhaboy:
I'm having the same problems!!!

I am now on the 3rd replacement (that's the 4th T-Mobile's Samsung Vibrant 3G!!!) and still having problems.

My phone will just be sitting on my desk at work and I'll hear it buzz a couple times. I know that buzz. It's something "Force Closing" in the background. I will pick my phone up and it will be unresponsive. It will light up the 4 buttons on the bottom of the device, but nothing else. Normally, it will then immediately start rebooting. It will go through the usual start-up screens. It will then show the status bar at the top; battery life, alarm clock, signal, 3G/WiFi, Media Scanning progress. However, the rest of the screen will be black. It will then vibrate once, then 2 more times and do it all over. It repeats this at least once for around an hour EVERY DAY!!! Other times, it will not restart on it's own and I will have to hold down the power button to manually do so.

I have also gone through ALL the troubleshooting I can imagine. All logs, history, texts, cache... EVERYTHING... has been cleared.

Please forgive me for asking, but it appears that I am to possibly root my phone for a resolution... is this true?

Also, has anyone heard of this "3 Returns Within 90 Days" policy with T-Mobile? I could easily do this with this phone. Has anyone had any luck getting them to do that?

cable : original came with the phone (used to work up until b4 yesterday) also tried another micro usb cable that came with me N900 but still nothing.

I did the un-check "enable faster sync" still nothing

Did soft reset, hard reset using volume keys, and factory reset from phone setting itself. still nothing.. the phone charges.. but no data transfer.. its something to do with the phone because i tried multiple PC's the phone doesn't bring up the connection type option page

SAME PROBLEM WITH HTC2 T0MOBILE

even on the boot loader screen, it charges but no USB stuck on serial.

even when on sleep mode and plug the cable orange led is on but it didn't wake up for choose (active syn or stoeag memory)

PLEASE HELP

i can do nothing, HSPL or rom upgrade

the cable and the USB drivers are tested more than 100 times
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truthseekers:
Most horror problems I had with the USB sync have been down to not having the latest version fo Activesync from microsoft. Uninstall the old version thwen reboot - now download the 4.5 version which I think is the newest and last version they made (unless im out of date) and then reboot the machine, then connect up the phone - but not immediately after the machine has booted wait a couple on mins, Windows takes longer than it often appears to be ready to go. One your hard drive led flashing light has settled down it is probably time to try. Then see if it finds all the devices in your phone.

If it doesnt go into the control panel and double click system, hardware tab, then select device manager and see if there are any devices with a yellow sign with a "!" in them. If there are delete them and then unplug the phone and plug it back in again. It might get past some stuck things. If it doesnt see anything new on device manager theres a menu at the top and look for "scan for hardware changes" this gives teh device manager another look at what its got connected.

If that fails open up the USB section under in device manager - its got a little plus next to it, press that plus and it open up all the names of chips you have for your USB control on the pc's motherboard. Write down the numbers and go and get the correct up to date drivers for that type of USB and install them. Then try the process again. Sometimes deleting the USB drivers and just doing a "scan for hardware changes" again, will reset the USB drivers and start things working, however it can get tricky if your using USB mouse and Keyboard to select anything if you delete the USB, because thats what the KM/mouse relies on to control teh machine, so have a PS2 mouse plugged in if you can. If that fails I would suggest reinstalling windows as its probably knackered. It amazing how things start to work wonderfully on a fresh copy of windows.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpw9272:
I have been where you are! And tried every suggestion that was given here. It all came down to the cord. I actually went through 3 different cords before I found one that worked and found that by accident. I bought an external drive and that cord works. For whatever reason, that is the only cord that now works for me. I only use it for data transfers. i use the other cords for charging.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trackie:
I searched the market and forum but couldn't find the answer. Is it possible to reassign the down volume to take a picture instead of using the optical button?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xephik:
I kinda wish it was possible to press the trackpad button to automatically open the camera app instead of having to navigate to it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rulevoid:
I also would love to know if this is possible. The Droid x has a dedicated button for it which helps. Pressing the optical track button pushes the camera forward where it is not natural to brace against resulting in a moving camera while taking pictures which makes everything blurry. If we could use one or both of the volume buttons it would alleviate this tendency to move he phone while taking a picture.

Is this achievable through an application or would it have to entirely replace the camera app?
[EVO 4G General] Emrys_90:
Will these settings last between wipes and flashes of ROMs? Reason I ask is because unfortunately CM6 doesn't have QPST settings, and I kind of need it.
[EVO 4G General] appzattak:
Hey all, so this afternoon I was sitting in my living room and somehow my 4G got turned on, and I happen to look at my phone and it was popping up 4G Network Avail. I was like no way, something is wrong. So I looked some more and sure enough it was trying to connect. It would say "Connecting to Sprint" for about 1 -2 seconds then a real quick disconnted, and back to scanning and it just repeats this over and over. I had to go out and about this evening and left the 4G on and it kept doing it out and about too. At one point it stayed on the "Connecting to Sprint" for like 10 seconds and then went back to scanning.

So I'm thinking there is a site nearby and maybe it is not accepting users yet, but man this is exciting. If anyone lives in the IE, let me know if you found any spots. My location is off the 71 fwy and Phillips. Also off of the 71 and Rio Rancho it woudl see it there as well.

PS - Here is a logcat of when it is trying to connect.

[EVO 4G General] appzattak:
So I was able to connect to 4g. I kinda think the tower is on the hills where the 57 and 10 are. Where I live in Pomona, we are up on a hill that over looks pomona and we have a road that circles the entire hill, I drove around it and on one point right near the 71 fwy It connected. I did a few speed tests and the fastest one was over 7Mbps down...however going back to my house a few hundred yards away it just see's it but will not connect....

Yeah I think Sprint is rolling out WiMax in greater LA area.

It used to be I won't get WiMax until I get close to downtown, now at home in SoPa/Alhambra, I get decent WiMax signal. And there is actually no signal in Pasadena lol.

Earlier this week when I was in San Gabriel, my Evo sticked in WiMax most of the time.

I've had 4g service around the West Covina area for months, Amar and Azusa area.

I was avg. 9dn and 1up. One thing i have noted though. When I first discovered it, I would click a web link and BLAMMO I was on in a heartbeat (1-3SECONDS tops). And for at least the last 2 months it has been taking a long time to start opening the page when compared to my 3g and wifi service.

My 4g and 3g ping at about 250ms. But the same page that loads in 3-5seconds in 3g. 4G takes 10-15 (even hit over 25seconds a few times).

Thanks for the Sensorly 4g Mapping Tip: as it turns out there is 4g in Rancho Cucamonga. I got 6 Megs down at Foothill and Haven 2 days ago.

I had Sensorly (background mapping) turned on, however, and 2 days later...their updated maps show 4g exactly where I found it.

I hear pulling out the battery during anything root related is bad, so I'm avoiding that, but I don't see another option. Any help?

This belongs in general.

You might be able to type "adb reboot recovery" with ur phone plugged in. That depends if ur phone is communicating with the computer. If not just pull ur battery and boot into recovery. Try to reflash cm6, make sure u wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache beforehand.

I just did a few nice little modifications to my phone...

and ever since i installed apps2sd (it seems to only pop up when i install this...no other mods seem to "screw" the phone up like it)

I get a few messages/areas that don't give the correct messages

these are my main examples:

(it says "sound off" instead of notifications)

(says %l-%p instead of God knows what)

(says "sound on" instead of clear)

along with these errors...the "force close" message box is extremely screwed up (i get "application process" and "%l-%p" things everywhere...also, i just saw that "preparing SD card" is actually "select input method")

if anyone knows how i can fix those specific ones, or if there's a general solution to all of it, i'm all ears

Ok please dont be hard on me if this doesn't work... but from my experience it does!!

(Im using paul's pre-rooted Jp3 fw)

Just took this from a thread in HowardForums where they said maybe captivate had the vibrant bands or viceversa... anyways i wanted to try in my i9000, since other carrriers in my country (Colombia) use wcdma 850/1900 for 3g (mine is just wcdma 1900 so im good for now... this is just theoretical, i need real 850mhz tower confirmation)

1. on the key pad, type *#*#197328640#*#*

2. Select [1] Debug Screen

3. Select [8] Phone control

4. Select [7] Network control

5. Select [2] Network Selection

Hey guys, can I check with you the performance for htc desire is that over time, if I have installed alot of applications to the phone, will the phone slow down or what? It seems to be slowing down at least to me, I can feel the lag when it is new and now when it has alot of applications.

Does it meant to be like that? I thought the number of applications we download do not hinder with the RAM management which is determining the speed of the phone?

Anyone care to clarify?
