OK, forgive the stupid question. It's early, I didn't sleep, so I NEED to run Unrevoked Forever, period, before the OTA, otherwise I'm at the mercy of someone discovering a root method for 2.2, which may or may not take forever, yea?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hatman41:
Yes that is what I have read that the 2.2 OTA will plug up the current root process just like it did for the EVO.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamusician:
If you want root, you install unrevoked forever.

If you are worried about being able to revert to stock image for warranty reasons or otherwise, check Berzerker7's post in the development thread to downgrade. According to him you will have stock and VZW techs dont have a way for checking for s-off
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StirCwazy:
OK so here's what I've got so far, and thanks for the help =)

•Run Unrevoked 3.1

•Run Unrevoked Forever

•Reflash back to Stock 2.1

•Apply official OTA

•Apply custom recovery

•Install su

Sound right?

Now all we need is the OTA.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rulevoid:
I am a bit confused. I am urnning radio 2.15 (latest) with SkyRaider 2.5.2 and Clockwork recovery and S-OFF.

How do i go about getting stock radio and stock ROM? Also, can the stock rom be rooted or no when flashing OTA?

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hatman41:
Read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=757927 to revert back to the stock radio and stock ROM. As you have S-OFF once you have intalled the OTA then just flash the custom recovery that Unrevoked has supplied http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever and apply SU and then you are rooted again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sryan2k1:
Well if HBOOT still runs, they can just power it up and look for it to say S-OFF at the top.

I want to know the same thing and also, if the official Kies JM1 firmware update is the same with the one from samsung-firm ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mitty1990:
I'm using JM5 now, updated from stock via samsung firmwares and it seems to be a lot faster with the lag fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheetah2k:
I found JM5 was better - especially for memory leaks. Startup on JM5 i have around 160mb free, but with JH1, only 130mb, and it drops to 99mb pretty quickly even after closing apps with ATK.

Without a lag fix, there was still lag.

The CSC only has 6 localities, 4 of them are chinese, and only UK and USA, where as JM5 has loads more including Australia

I found wifi and 3G/HSDPA stronger on the JM5 radio as well. Had major issues with wifi dropping out similar to JF3 with JH1. GPS was ok, but not on Cell triangulation. JM5 was much more accurate.

I also had issues flashing back to JM5 after flashing JH1. I worked out that if I had partition checked, and included the 512 PIT file, odin just hung. Flashing back to JM5 without these worked fine.

There's certainly nothing new in it, Quadrant scores have been lower than the base JM5 as well (from another thread), so if you're on JM5, just stick with it.

Hope this helps.

I flash from jg4 no problem at all, gps is way better in jm5
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0oizeo0:
JH1 only has English UK/US, Korean and 3 chinese locales.

But it is very smooth and bug free. It doesn't contain the default number app when you try to add a default number for multiple contacts (Reason for my choice of JH1 over JM5.)

JH1 contains a native task manager which shows my memory over 175MB ram after a day use, after a reboot or "fast reboot" app another good 20-30MB is freed.

I am using the JM5 modem file though as I find the GPS is stronger and somewhat usable for walks (after changing the gps.conf to use 4 uk pool time servers as I am in London, I find this fix assists the picking up of signals ie more sats, faster locks.) JM5 also picks up the signals stronger and holds on to them for longer.

JM5 PDA was a little jumpy at times for me and the memory showed less.

Both tested after OneClickLagFix. GPS were both tested from the same spot outside my flat window (after giving both modem files a 5 mins warm up time through LbsTestMode Get Position Test.)

Anyone know of a good firmware with better GPS than JM5 (Modem file is XXJM3)?

I am using JH1

I am from Malaysia, currently using I9000ZSJH1 with mimo lag fix quarant 1.4k but phone still lagging, I dont think it's firmware tho mayb it's something wrong with my device or external sd card?

Read some post before that one said I9000XWJM5 with CSC I9000XWJM2 is the best. Any issue to use this mix different firmware? Is that ok to use Europe firmware as I am staying in Malaysia?

I am going to try this out then apply Tayutama update.zip lag fix. Wonder will it solve my current lag issue.

Hope to get more advice or oppinions on this. thank you :)

Anyone have trouble sending mms? Mine just stalls and eventually gives me a notice that it can't be sent...had the trouble for a while now....
[Captivate General] mrgoodwords:
Are you having this problem on both 3G and Edge or just when you are on Edge?
[Captivate General] Kagoshema:
your not trying to send it through google voice are you?
[Captivate General] mmm_tacos:
I had trouble with mine on EDGE. The solution was to get Handcent SMS and set the size of the MMS.

Settings->Send message settings->Maximum MMS size and I set it to 100k

No problems since.
[Captivate General] :
I am also having this problem. I found that it was only an issue on Edge.... which is all that is available here. Pretty much rendering my MMS messages useless. Along with GPS. So im quite displeased at this moment.

As for the Settings = send message settings above thing .... I do not see the "Send MEssage Settings" option anywhere. Not in Message Settings or in regular Settings. Any particular place for it? :confused: Hope it works if i find it. Frustrated.

Correction - I see you mean to get the program Handcent SMS. Though that actually pisses me off more that I have to get a program to send on Edge, I will give it a shot.
[Captivate General] :
Works

I can confirm that the Handcent SMS app on the Marketplace works for MMS on Edge network. Thanks for the tip off good sir.:D
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
If you're running Stock JF6 ROM and only has EDGE signal, you have two choices:

1. Some how shrink the picture down to 100k or so. Anything bigger won't send over EDGE. It is one of the known bugs in stock ROM.

2. You can flash to the newer leaked beta ROM. This bug has been addressed in newer ROMs.

Or you can wait for the official ROM update that fixes GPS among other things. No one know when that will happen yet.
[Captivate General] :
Question for mmm_tacos

mmm_tacos -

Did you find a way to disable the regular Messaging system so you dont get two notifications for every text/MMS message received?:rolleyes:
[Captivate General] mmm_tacos:
You should be able to open the stock Messaging application and hit your menu button and go to settings and go to Notifications and uncheck it.

Hello Everyone,

Does the Weather Toggle Widget work properly for anyone on the Dell Streak? I tried this on 1.6 and now again on 2.1 but it always looks messed up. The clock looks great but the weather is always compressed and cut-off on the side. I have tried different skins but always the same result. I really like this application and just want to get it working.

Check the screen capture to see what I mean.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

PS. I did send a support email to the creator as well so I hope to hear from him eventually.

[General Questions and Answers] tiho5:
When you’re in Mail and you want to switch to a different folder of the current email account (inbox, sent items, deleted items etc…) you can open a drop down field by hitting the top left corner button of the window which displays all the folders for easy browsing.

If you have unread messages in any of these folders you would have their count displayed in brackets next to the name of each folder.

Can it also be possible to display there the count of the total number of messages in this folder next to the count of unread massages in it (only say not in bold but in normal font)?

Sometime one would forget messages in some folders (like in ”Drafts” for instance). This way this would be displayed next to the folder name when browsing folders.

I have once tried FlexMail and this was possible there.

But for the normal Mail app I was not able to find how it is possible to do it despite searching xda-dev many times.

Any ideas out there?

Very true but I contact HTC about the Legend not being sold at Bell anymore and the froyo update, they said that the HTC Legend not being sold is a rumor and that Froyo will be released in September. Maybe its a cover up?

Maybe, but I don't trust Bell one bit, especially not when it comes to support and customer service. If they aren't selling it anymore, I'm expecting the worst.

I totally agree with you. Today at the local mall, I went to the Bell Kiosk, not the actual store. So I saw two Bell sales rep because they were wearing the Bell T-Shirt and I mentioned that I bought an HTC Legend a few weeks ago and I heard that Bell won't be selling them due to AMOLED issues with HTC, then asked if there will be a Froyo update and when. All they did was nod their head saying no and said "No idea, sorry"...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3722:
Of course you can install other navigation apps, the android market is full of apps, and some of them are pretty good :).

HTC Sense is a UI (user interface) that is on top of the android OS , some people like it and others prefer to install non-stock roms that are only with plain (vanilla) android.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freakzone:
Hi and welcome to xda,

for me the benefit of sense is that it brings all the content to your home screen in a fancy way. What does that mean. They made the information to sort of flow to you instead of you looking for it. For example you put some tabs on sense like mail,sms,photos whatever you need and then you don't need software to get the particular content on the home screen(s) - just 1 flick and you're reading your mail. They have integrated the contacts, so if you need to mail someone you don't need to open mail application, just go to the contact and write from there, you can also see their facebook status and albums. The other thing I like is the smart dialing - if you want to call 'John' you just type 5(JKL)6(MNO)4(GHI) and all your john's pop up as well as phone numbers containing 564.

It really has a lot of features so if you tell us what you want to use it for I'll be able to give you particular scenarios :)

I heard today from a guy at a local store, that he heard from an inside source of SE that the reasons the update is takibg long is because they devepoperw are having lag issues caused by the increase in color denisity (65 thou to 16m), theyr working on optimizing hd recording where thyr trying to get higher fpses as well as optimization regarding 720p playback... other improvments that he mentioned where problems known in 1.6 such as low incall volume as well as the poor battery perfomance...and that the update might be posponed to late q4............ this is not an official source so its possible that some of he said if not all wasnt true i just hope the update will be worth the wait

They should skip SE customization in the first release and release with stock Android 2.2 without wasting more time to solve issues with their 2.1 release.

If this is true and 2.1 come end of Q4, it will only make SE look even worse than coming out with 1.6 now. By then all new Androids will probably already come with 3.0.
