[Desire General] bwfcmadlad:
I was kind of hoping that it might change the settings when I changed the scene but it didn't. The reason I ask is that I work shifts that aren't set so u can be working one day and not another so setting specific days and times is no good for me. I need to be able to turn on the email push as and when I need it but a shortcut or widget would have been very handy. Any other suggestions that might suit this kind of use?
[Desire General] freakzone:
The only straight forward thing I can think of is to set sync period for peak/off peak. Then put the 'power control' widget somewhere in sense. It has a 'sync' icon which glows green when on, then when you work turn it on, when you don't turn it off. Hope this helps.
[Desire General] bwfcmadlad:
yeh i will give that a go and see what its like.

do you know if there is any way that you can change these settings in different scenes so it would be as easy as changing seen to set up mail sync options?
[Desire General] freakzone:
Besides the widget I can't think of any way you can change the sync frequency by changing the scenes, sorry:(

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthMar:
I have the 47.651.1 build. This is a new evo from my insurance claim. My last phone before it got messed up was on the same build. Been trying to root for like 2 months. Read all the threads and tried both the toast and unrevoked method. Even went on youtube to follow along on the tutorials there. I'm starting to think maybe its my computers os. I have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit on both my laptop and my desktop. I really dont have access to a 32 bit system at the moment to try. Anyhow, when I try the unrevoked method. The phone reboots the first time into the bootloader and the phone scans the card. It says no file found or wrong file, something like that. Then when I go to the hboot usb plug. The computer makes the usb error noise. Going into the device manager I see that I have an android 1.0 device that has no driver. Yes, htc sync and .net are installed on both my systems. I searched high and low for this driver. I saw a thread about this where someone said this driver isnt needed. I donno but thats where i always get stuck on the unrevoked method. Now on the toast method I get stuck also on the bootloader screen. This time though, i get a message saying something like "main version is older" and it gives me the option to rebot back to the phones desktop. I looking forward to tethering again and trying out new roms as well as helping others that may be in my same situation and can't find the answer they need. Have any of you guys rooted with 64 bit version of windows 7? Please help..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
You need to do a manual install of the htc sync drivers. Goto device manager and right click on the one with an exclamation point and select install driver. Go manual with everything (sorry I'm on a bus replying from memory, can't remember the specifics). Find where the htc sync installed to and select the drivers from there. If all goes well, this will install your adb drivers so that your phone can talk to your pc.

The main version older issue has to do with having the wrong PC36IMG.ZIP file loaded on the sd card. Toast's is old. I think the one whitslack posted is good. "How to start over" in the development forum.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthMar:
so this android 1.0 needs an adb driver? When the phone is hooked up with usb debug on it shows an adb device in the device mngr. Well i'll try that and get back to you. Thanks for the reply.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthMar:
Just tried, none of the drivers in those folders work for the android 1.0 device. Any other thoughts? If I update to froyo, do you think the new root method will be easier?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombdy:
Don't update via OTA from Sprint. There is currently no way to root Froyo.

Did you look at whitslacks root method? I never used Unrevoked since it is not a full root (no nand unlock).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garyfunk:
I gained root access with Windows 7 64 bit using the link in my signature.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jim M:
unrevoked3 will give you root access and nand unlocked.

if you're going to use unrevoked3 go to their web page and download the usb drivers from them, just follow their directions. i had no trouble, widows 7 premium 64 bit. i'm sure you will be able to root just fine with your computer(s).

after you get root access, run unrevoked forever.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
How sure are you unrevoked unlocks NAND?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
It only unlocks it long enough to flash a recovery then NAND relocks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
Without a real full NAND unlock a lot of custom ROM's wont run right and cause issues.

Hey everyobdy,

I've been coming here for a few years now to download tweaks and roms for my various phones. Thanks to everyone who knows how to make this stuff, I always enjoy flashing the new stuff!

My issue is that my Tilt 2 Running the stock rom from the HTC Site lets the wifi turn off and then when you wake the phone up, the wifi doesn't turn back on right away like it did on the Tilt or the 8125. I have tried the "wifinostandby" cab and it doesnt have any effect on my phone. Does anyone know how to fix this? When i do the actual registry hack, it works until I soft reset the phone, then the registry settings go back to stock. Is there any way to make them stick?

Thanks!

Hi guyss, I wonder if you can help me, I have recently rooted my Desire using unrevoked3, I have superusr permissions app so I think it went ok, I have also done a back up using Titanium back up, however I can't seem to access recovery mode so I can do a nandroid backup....

When I go into Recovery from boot the O2 spalsh screen comes up and the phone turns off and I can't turn it back on or get it to boot at all unless I remove the battery.

Have I done something wrong or am I missing something? It's not a really difficult procedure so I feel a bit daft here.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Hi, our current wallpaper pixel size is 960 x 800. Is there anyway where we can tweak to make it to 480 x 800? In other words, I do not want a "scrolling" wallpaper, but a fixed wallpaper even when there are multiple homescreens.

I know it is possible, because for the aCircuit Board Live Wallpaper, under the settings, there is an option to fix a particular section of the wallpaper within the phone screen.

Any experts can help on this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aditya_t90:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Yes, I know ADW Launcher is capable of doing that. But does anyone knows how to extract that part of ADW Launcher, make it an app that runs in TW3?

You can use launcher pro from the market, there is options for static wallpaper and to keep the overall look and feel of touchwiz.

Hi,

in a few days I will be going in vacations (lucky me) in Mexico. But I don't want to pay for international Datas. I want to use my phone only has a phone and will contect thru Wifi when available.

ma question is: If the "Data roaming" (settings-wireless and network- mobile networks) is un checked, is that mean it will "cut" the datas as soon as I'm not with ATT?

Thanks

Yes, but you'll still be subject to roaming charges for voice and messaging.

- Dial *#*#INFO#*#* which is *#*#4636#*#*

Duh, I guess I selectively absorb content I read. I just get sim cards locally and pass that number to the people I need to stay in touch with.

[Captivate General] joeybear23:
Turn off data, and call at&t and sign up for the international plan. You can cancel it after the vacation and it is pro-rated. I went on a cruise to mexico and ended up paying like $120 on less than a half hour of calls back home.
[Captivate General] grmcgee:
I am on a trip in Brazil right now, and have the exact same requirements. I turn off Data Roaming so that I don't run up any data charges. Just to be safe, I also turned off sync for Google, Twitter, and Facebook. I signed up for the AT&T International Plan at $5.99 per month, which makes calls between US and Brazil at $1.99 per minute. Text messages are $.80 each. If you really want to save money on calls, take a laptop and use Skype. I can call a US landline from Skype for $.02 per minute, not quite free, but it feels like it compared to the AT&T rate.
[Captivate General] lgkahn:

[Captivate General] kkeo:
Simple as turning off data roaming, I went to Mexico City a few weeks ago and didn't incur any data charges. I've been there a few times with my iPhone and haven't had to pay anything extra either. Just make sure you get the AT&T Mexico feature. It's $4.99 a month and .59 a minute while roaming in Mexico.
[Captivate General] hkk:
Mexico Plans

I am currently travelling to Mexico every week for business and signed up for a voice plan.

Instead of the regular $59.99 plan giving 900 minutes, I have a $74.99 plan that allows me to use my minutes while in Mexico also. ATT has some weird scheming where they say, the first month you can use all of the 900 mins, 2nd month only 40% of the minutes, 3rd month again 900, 4th month 40% only, and so on. Go figure what the smartypants at ATT were dreaming when they created this plan.

But again, everytime I call ATT, the idiots give me a new answer. SMS and MMS, I have gotten multiple answers, so i try not to use it.

Data plan - ATT will rip you naked in a few minutes of data usage. It's like $20 per 10MB or something like that - that's if you sign up for a plan before hand. If not, it gets even more ridiculous.

So, bottom line, if you need to make/receive calls on your US #, signup for one of those international plans. Forget data. SMS - I don't know.

Turnoff data roaming - settings --> Wireless Networks --> Mobile networks --> Data roaming uncheck.

Verizon has a $35 unlimited data plan (on top of your regular plan), if you have a choice.

edit: btw, I am unable to call any toll free #s while in Mexico. Whether those calls are allowed or not seems to be dependent on the combination of ATT and local carrier (for me Telcel). Didn't have this problem with Verizon.
[Captivate General] a_fuegon:
For what it's worth, the international plans and the flip flopping of at&t reps is what drove me to simply give up using my phone abroad. I am somewhere south of the US almost weekly, so for me it is a big issue. I eventually resorted to picking up local sim cards, which works for me. I usually spend max of $10 for the sim and a bucket of mins, which also includes texting if need be. All incoming calls are free, which is what makes it work for me.

Enough of the thread jacking for me.
[Fascinate Accessories] AllGamer:
There are a lot of topics in the forum about people having trouble finding compatible headphones to work for music and "remote" control the phone playback.

the Bluetooth A2DP works perfectly fine in SGS for both Car Receivers and Stereo headset, and it switch transparently between music to phone calls and back without a glitch.

(i can't say the same for WM phones, another reason why i left WM platform, PalmOS was good, but is no longer produced)

There are lots of excellent Stereo BT headphones in the market now, both Studio like or simple 1 ear type, whatever ticks your fancy, the studio type offers the best audio quality even over BT.

yes it might consume more battery, but battery replacements are very inexpensive. (see accessories section)

I've not looked back to use a wired headphones since BT Stereo was invented, i used to have wired headphones for breakfast, it was a mass murder of headphones every time you get in the bus or subway, i've saved a lot of money since i moved to BT, so it's very surprising to still see people trying to work out the wiring problems with the headsets

I've been there before, every time i switched to a new phone, i needed to find another adapter to convert this to that, so that i can do something as simple as answer the phone on the headset, it was a major PITA.

so it'll be interesting to hear your side of the story to prefer wire over BT (other than "saving" battery and "better sound quality")

:)
[Fascinate Accessories] andrewluecke:
I find the bluetooth headsets to be kind of douchie personally. I also don't like the idea of keeping a radio transmitter attached to my head for extended periods (same goes for stereo bluetooth). Whilst I don't particularly believe in the freaks who claim they are radio sensitive, we don't really have any way of knowing how safe they are.

Extra convenience perhaps? Not for general usage. I work unpacking boxes all night and I use hardwired headphones, and it has never gotten in the way (so why bother coughing up a lot of extra money for a technology with potentially worse sound quality and negligible benefits).

IT also chews through battery as you mentioned, but i'm also learning to fly. You never know when you regret sucking up the battery earlier in the day for a technology whose only benefit is no cord.

There are benefits for Bluetooth, such as integrating with a car stereo, some flight headsets have bt built in, transferring files and connecting to special adapters which normally would need USB (such as NMEA GPS or OBD2 devices). But realistically, replacing hardwired headphones with bluetooth seems to be a case of doing so because some people think it gives them an identity. There are very few I believe who actually benefit. But that's only an opinion....
[Fascinate Accessories] alovell83:
More battery consumption on both the phone and the headset. Which means more cost and more responsibility (buying or keeping batteries charged). Worse sound quality is present with bt than what you'll get in high end headphones, I am always using either high end buds or noise cancelling headsets.

I find the bt thing a bit like nutrasweet, it might sound like a good idea, I just don't want to touch the stuff.
[Fascinate Accessories] Mithent:
I'd have to buy a stereo Bluetooth headset, as I don't own one, and then I'd have to remember to keep it charged and carry it with me.

I'm sure it would work okay, but I don't have a problem with a wired headset, so a Bluetooth one would only really cost money and make me liable to forget to charge it.

Hi,

Used the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800's before when I had a SE phone and they work a treat on the Galaxy S too. There are no controls, but I like to use the phone as the "remote" which is fine.

I find them convenient for listening to music on the tube when packed in and shouldering a bag. Sounds good enough to me, though I am not an audiophile.

BTW: I noticed on the 2.2 test frimware JP3 that the eq effects worked across BT unlike current version that says you need to plug in headphones.

In terms of battery I manage approx 3 hours a day which does my commute to and from work. They also work quite good with Galaxy S when watching videos too.

Cheers,
[Fascinate Accessories] BuddyLee:
well for the galaxy s its simple ... the 5.1 audio enhancement says enough for u to use wired.

I got 3 sony stereo bt headsets and the only reason why i use it is for the convenience during commute. I dont want my phone getting tangled up somewhere in the metro and end up falling out being damaged or lost because of my headphone cord.

I feel much safer knowing its deep in my pocket without fear of it accidentally slipping out.

But when I am at work by my desk i use wired ... saves battery as well.
[Fascinate Accessories] andrewluecke:
Explain convenient.. What exactly is so convenient for them over normal headphones, which deliver better quality sound for cheaper? There are some people who do get benefits by using them (at work), where they need to free their hands and cant really have cables swinging around, such as computer technicians, but most people seem to use them whilst they are simply walking around..
