I have rooted my Spica 2.1 with help from here - http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/root-samsung-galaxy-spica-i5700-with-leshaks-kernel/

Can anyone give me tutorial for installing APPS2SD to that I can install my applications to sd card. I am a layman and this is my 1st post. Need help from everyone ass I have googled and could not find a simple way to do this.
[Galaxy Spica General] rainor94:
Go to this link: forum.samdroid.net/wiki/showwiki/Recovery

Read the following:

"For enter to Recovery:"

"Partition sdcard"

Once you complete the steps showed there you should be good to go.
[Galaxy Spica General] kenshinta:
You mighty as well upgrade to the latest samdroid kitchen v2 over there. Just to ensure you have the latest version of app2sd for the spica.
[Galaxy Spica General] firenice210383:
apps2sd

it doesnt worl for me all apps getting in tthe internal memory . in samdroid tool no option comes once i click on apps2sd
[Galaxy Spica General] lupetalo:
Restart Phone after you enable it. Also it seams not to work with large cards.. For me working with 1,2,4 and not for 32...
[Galaxy Spica General] yamen.meddeb:
Use any samdroid tool from samdroid forum.

Easy to use/install.
[Galaxy Spica General] abdealiv:
1)Make Ext2 Partition on Sd Card from recovery(how to go to recovery : Voldown+call+power) of ur choice of Data Size

2)Format the second Ext2 Partition(which means the above partition only which u have just made) from recovery

3)Reboot the phone and from Samdroid Tools option Enable App2sd and Dalvik Cache(optional,it will save some more space)

4)Reboot (do Reboot Twice just to make sure)

Enjoy :)

my suggestion 1st apply Kitchen V2 from here

http://forum.samdroid.net/f28/samdroidmod-kitchen-v-2-all-one-samsung-spica-i5700-en-1901/

then do the above mention stpes .let me know if any issues

I have jpeg/png image that I am trying to use as a wallpaper. I changed the resolution of the image to 920x800 and downloaded and saved to gallery on the phone.

When I go to change wallpaper and use that, it ALWAYS brings up the crop tool and doesn't let me pick the whole image. The crop tool messes up the resolution and that's not what I want. I want the whole image as I downloaded it to appear as the wallpaper.

Is it not possible to do :confused:
[Captivate General] inku:
Needs to be 960x800
[Captivate General] tysj:
Doesn't need to be any resolution really. The stock ones are just generally 960x800. Use the crop tool to expand the window by pressing on the edge/border of it and drag out so that you can expand the window as much as possible over the image.
[Captivate General] inku:
Is true that doesn't have to be 960x800 but it need to be a res that have the same proportions or you won't be able to use the whole image and instead will end cropping and scaling the image.
[Captivate General] babi_gurlx:
download wallpaper set and save from the market. its a cool app and it lets you use the entire image. also using a hi-resolution wallpaper or hd wallpaper helps to make it not pixelated and fuzzy looking. it doesn't have to a particular size either. ;)
[Captivate General] inku:
Nice app but it does the same it won't let you use the whole image it crops and scale and the image ends blurry.

original image 1280x800:

re-sized to 960x800:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venkss:
Hello All,

I got my captivate recently and love it so far. I have read several articles on whether the background apps/tasks consume battery or not. I guess the Android community is split between whether background tasks should be killed or left alone for the OS to handle.

But, I have noticed that my data usage has gone up since I got the captivate (I had HTC Tilt 2 before). My question is does background apps consume data? I am not talking about the email sync and other necessary apps that are running in the background but specifically asking about apps that we have installed from market that are supported by Ads. Do they consume data in the background? Should I kill them? Can anyone recommend a good task killer? Is there a security risk if these background apps keeping sending back and forth data?

Any insights in much appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venkss:
Any help please?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
Apps that are not running should not use data; but there are other things that do.

Widgets use data - do you have a weather widget? News, social networks, contacts or calendar?

Gmail, Exchange, AT&T - all have address book and calendar sync that is going on and constantly checking for changes. 3rd party apps with ads should not be a concern - they should not be using data when not running.

As for security risk - it depends as i don't know what apps you have installed. When you install an app it indicates what it has access too. If a checkers app has access to contacts, phone, and gps then i would be concerned.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richhed:
Using the free version of Juice Defender I was able to configure which apps could use data when in background and which ones would only be able to use data if they were in the foreground.

[HD2 General] srsguy:
There's something very odd about smartphones these days. If you supply them with +5v and ground through the USB port, they won't charge because they want a 'signal' from the thing doing the charging. The point of this is to make sure it does not draw more amperage than the charging device may be able to provide. However, most EVERY way of charging can supply well over an amp. The only thing that CAN'T are AA battery-powered chargers. However, those aren't even in circulation for the HD2 AFAIK.

Does anyone know of any fixes/files to mess with/basic solutions so that and HD2 will charge from +5v? My phone won't even charge from my computer. It's really obnoxious, and I just bought this solar powered charger....

EDIT: !!!IGNORE THIS POST!!! It turns out I had some setting checked "When connected to a PC, do not charge while the phone is on."

Who in the world needs such a setting?!?

Move it to the root folder of your SD card.

Make sure your phone is charged very well - 100% is a good number ;)

Boot to Amon_RA

(in Amon_RA) Perform a Nandroid backup before you do anything else

(in Amon_RA) Wipe data/factory reset

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
I'm thinking that you didn't actually restart the phone, but tried to restart in Recovery. With 1-click the steps are:

- run the 1click app

- restart the phone - do not start in recovery, but restart like you were going to make a phone call

- shut down the phone

It's that second step that installs Amon's Recovery.

Reading the instructions on 1-click, it's easy to see why people miss that, as it doesn't clearly say to restart the phone without going into Recovery.

Anyway, at this point, you have run 1-click. So, start your phone without trying to start in Recovery. When that happens, the phone will get Amon's and you'll be ready to Nandroid what you have and flash new ROMs.
