Well, not knowing sh** from shinola about things like sim cards and such (Currently on Verizon until my Captivate is delivered), it would seem logical that it is the new sim. That is the only variable that has changed. Same model phone, same networks on all three devices, same sim on first two devices that worked on all three wifi networks, different sim on third device that does not work on your business wifi. Do you not have the old sim card to try it out with?
[Captivate General] RexEscape:
'sup slim ;)

Sorry to have to delete my original post since (for some reason) it started to work on me while I was waiting on the phone with Level 2 Tech Support. I thought about the SIM card being the only variable. While I don't have the old SIM card to try (besides, it's been deactivated) I removed the SIM card and turned the phone on. Still, no go. (My old phones with no SIM cards work with WiFi).

So anyway, it works now for some reason. I did a factory reset, didn't work from the get-go. Kept trying and trying and finally I have had it. Called Samsung, waited on the phone, and finally it started to work!

Yes, it is one of it's most advertised features.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashisan:
It's my first post so hello to everybody :)

I'm still on the run through web to find and test proper and 100% good and fast encoder/converter for Galaxy S. I'll not advise to use Kies - reason :

- it's slow

- not using full power of modern CPU's

- application is far from beeing perfect or even usefull

When I found one good and user friendly soft will post it here :)

what is this greystripe add pop up and how do i get rid of it? it comes up when i close "sms scheduler"
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
screenshot?

if you're rooted an adblocker will probably do the trick
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Tregrad:
I am rooted and i use "adfree" ad blocker, the add is not your typical half inch add across the bottom of the screen. its a whole screen add that pops up when i close the app. perhaps there is a registry tweek in the app itself or within androis somewhere that can turn this sort of thing off? i dont know.

[Hero CDMA General] saltyclams:
Im having some problems with the normal Music v2.2 app that comes with Cyanogen RC1... its pretty basic, the widget is flaky, etc. so im looking to replace it.

I checked Market real quick for some other Music Players and there are quite a few that come up - some free, some paid.

... so, basically... Im just looking for some feedback on whats the "best" one out there? Is there possibly one out there that is really just that good? Or, personal recommendations on whats worked best for you, etc.

Thanks again for the help!
[Hero CDMA General] Nannuq:
I have Mixzing and liked it enough to get the paid version its nice you can set it to look at different folders for music and ignore others. I hated the default app that came with my phone i had a few audiobooks, pre-audible, that would shuffle in when playing from my collection. Very annoying to go from music to spoken word when you expect music. it does all your basic functions and such has some other features but i never got into the more premium stuff.
[Hero CDMA General] gidkid:
+1 for mixzing, very nice app, and I have the free version. If you're just looking for plain, good-looking simplicity though, not features, Try zimly (free in market).

[Hero CDMA General] saltyclams:
I actually didnt try either of those 2 that you recommended, but am about to here in just a few mins. I donwloaded "Music Player" which was highly rated and talked about a good bit - but its volume is horrible. Even after going in to settings and moving their volume up and having media volume up I have to have the volume knob in my car all the way to the right. I thought this was weird so I switched back to the one that comes with CM6, freakin almost blew my speakers. It seems like each app is using the volume different, which is weird. And I definitely went through all the settings to ensure that the volumes were all the way up.

I listen to audio books a lot as well - I freaking love them!!! Makes my car ride to and from work so much better its stupid... but I know what you mean when it comes to them switching from word to music, etc. haha!

Is this volume issue common? Is there anything that will actually boost the volume past the normal max level?

Thanks

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3vr04:
Does anyone notice that SetCPU with kernels such as Hydra (1.15 uvoc) and King’s (#2 1.19) causes home screens and apps in drawer to scroll stickily?

I've ran both at max oc and it occurs. I know Hydra does not recommend setcpu. When I force stop setcpu with both kernels the problem goes away and the UI moves fast and slick.

Is there a way to have the benifits of SetCPU's Profiles while making the phone run fast and smoothly as when I force stop SetCPU???

Also are the battery drain problems that are plaguing people due to us using non-stock kernels... or us using oc kernels without SetCPU???
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samwathegreat:
Personally, I've had nothing but disappointments with setcpu. Currently running kingklicks kernel #3 without setcpu. Plenty fast enough for me and better battery life than stock. I think the stock governor does a better job than setcpu.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incredibuyer:
Kingklick scaling is as good or better than creating profiles in setcpu. Using kingklick# 2 and# 3 as is has improved battery life greatly for me. I posted some" light use" battery life results in the kingklick thread and during the test period I was using setcpu to test the scaling abilities of kings kernal. Overclocking is overrated and setcpu doesn't play nice most of the time anyway. Use kingklick# 3 or# 2 as is and you should get good results. If not, im not much help. If you can't get kings kernal to be stable at least use an undervolted kernal.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3vr04:
Thatnks Sam. I agree. But I'm using #2 without setcpu. Its fast and smooth. Better Quad and Lin scores for me than #3 (currently trying) though but not significant. I'll see how it handles battle before I revert to #2

@Inc

I've been using king's #2 its performance is great. smooth without setcpu. What is the default speed of his kernels 2&3(oc1.19G) without setcpu?

Btw I'm running same phone configuration as your signature.

I'm looking for a Anti-Glare Screen Protector for my AT&T Tilt 2 other than Boxwave. The Boxwave costs too much and isn't that good IMO. I saw a post some time ago about a cheaper alternative. I searched these forums and could not located the post. It was something like 2 covers for ~!$10.

Please let me know.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] Mnementh666:
:) No problem.

No, I don't have the anti-glare protector, but I am using their clear one, and I am having absolutely no issues with it. I'm probably going to buy more, possibly 2 of the anti-glare and 2 clear, that way if I hate the anti-glare, I can still have the clear ones :D

I'm on my second Clarivue protector, and I love it. The first one was screwed up doing it's job (I scratched it badly after not realizing I had sand/grit on my finger), but otherwise it's great. Nice and slick, easy to apply, etc.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FadeFx:
Hi,

until yesterday i had a perfectly working fast and snappy device:

JM5, Hackeclair, Tayutama´s update.zip lagfix, oc 120v2.3 kernel

then i tried to update the kernel to oc120v3 which worked out well and the device seemd running well so far. after some hours the device started to behave somewhat strange, it kept telling me "usb connected" again and again and again... so i got scareded and reflashed the 120v2.3 kernel. badly with no effect on the behaviour of the phone. so i just got scared eaven more and tried to reapply a nandroid backup of my virgin phone when i got it just to realize that this nandroid backup was far away from my original version, it showd me the wrong firmware number, did not overwrite the kernel and the csc and such stuff.

then i realized that i can only turn on my phone when it is connected to the charger and the green battery is showing, if i try to turn it on with usb disconnected it shows me the (not really) spinning wheel and then goes black again just to show the wheel again. also it often just crashes during sleep.

so what now? i cant reflash stock firmware since it is not available anywhere (a1 telekom austria branded) and so can not send my phone to repair...

any ideas someone????
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgkahn:
you can send to repair saying it is dead. if it doesnt boot up they wont know what kernel or f/w is on it.. (a little dishonost since you toasted it).. or you can chalk it up to experience and buy a new one.. i never oc the extra speed is not needed and it chews through battery anyway.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1kon:
just download a full firmware like JF3 then using odin and clicking the repartition option flash it to get rid of the oc kernel. I never mess with oc'ing as it tends to screw up your processor. Hopefully yours has not been fried.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FadeFx:
it cant be the cpu, since it does start up when its connected to the charger, to me it seems more like the usb port of the device is defect (that could be why it always shows that "usb connected" notification) or somehow maybe the bootloader got messed up. actually the device is running well with a fresh installation of jm5 (repartitioned) except of not starting and those notifications...

also it could be somewhat hard to find jf3 since samsungfirmwares is down :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurtisnet:
Same thing happened to me a week ago. The usb connected message and the spinning wheel of nothing appeared on my Singapore galaxy set last week.

Went down to Samsung service center and showed them the phone. They were highly suspicious that this was caused by some custom firmware but later they honoured the warranty after some inspection.

2 hours later, my phone was fixed with Samsung telling me that it was because of the motherboard and that they had replaced a new one.

Hope you won't have trouble getting Samsung to do the warranty for you. Good luck.

hmm, on investigating further, i realize that if the phone is turned on with charger connected, and i instantly disconnnect it when it starts up, it operates normally, so i just need a charger or usb cable to turn it on and everything is ok. with this i can live for until i find time to bring it to service.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellSassa69:
Hi everyone!

I have a transcend 8GB micro sd (class 6) in my desire.

Ive formated it like that:

7gb fat32

1gb ext3 (maybee its ext2 or 4 I dunno)

no swap

a few days ago my phone sayd that the sd card is corrupted!

The strange thing is that all my apps which are on the exp partition are still working flawlessly and I can also access all files on the sd card via ES Strong File manager!

What I cant do for ex. is setting up ringtones which are on my sd card. They show up in the ring tone menu but no sound plays but when I open em in the mp3 player they play fine!

I also cant take pics/vids with the cam because the phones says I should insert a sd card!

Is this a known problem?

What I wanna do is getting my data and my apps over to my computer and then reformating the card and transfering everything back. Just to see if it works then (doubt it!).

But I dont know how to do it because of the ext partition! Can you give me a hint please?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
its quite easy for one partiton to be corrupt while the other isnt, thats because there using diffrent fs's unless you have linux there is no way to access your ext partiton, just format the card and start again :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danifamous:
Download the gparted(?) liveCD.

Mount the disk image, via daemon tools/cd etc.

This way, you can just reformat the partition you need.

I found this useful switching my ext4 to ext3 without wiping my FAT32 partition.

As long as you don't attempt to resize or touch the FAT32 partition, as linux handles FAT32 differently, and can become temperamental.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellSassa69:
Shouldnt I be able to access the ect partition from any linux distri via vm ware?

I think thats the way to go - will try it today and report :)

think it will work but I have to gather some knowledge about linux anyway!

For those of you that remember Space Trader for the Palm OS, there is a newly released beta version called Dark Nova.

http://code.google.com/p/dark-nova-android/wiki/BetaInstructions

I am not affiliated with these guys, just posting about one of the greatest games ever made. It is still in beta, and needs some work, but still, best game I have ever played.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
hmm.. seems a lot like DopeWars but with some space-style graphics and more confusing gameplay.

This one has potential but they have a LOOOONG way to go before they will have a polished game ready for the masses.

There is no native way to close the game, going to different menus opens layers of windows which started fc'ing on me. After about 6 fc's I was back at the main commander screen.

Even if it doesn't fc you still just go back one page if you hit the back button so if you warp to another planet and hit the back button then you are instantly back where you started??

Good start though. Now that they've proven their concept I hope they make a game out of it :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] VSack:
You clearly have zero idea what Space Trader is.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
care to enlighten me?

*edit- I played it for 10 minutes or so and found several things that are almost identical to DopeWars. Buying and selling stuff, buying and equipping weapons, traveling and being stopped by a raiding party, the bank...

Seems like a very similar concept to me..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kuthedude:
Its what I said it was. SPACE TRADER. It was a game built for the Palm OS and kicked major ass. I guess you could find similarities with dope wars, but it is different.

And yes, it is still in beta. The more people that help out, the quicker it gets polished. It is brand spanking new. If you ever played Space Trader, you would certainly LOVE this game, as I believe it is an exact replica, but with better graphics, and I think they added more missions.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
it is similar to dopewars. jsut because it is set and space and has some diffrences does not mean he isnt right.

Its nto a bad start for a beta, i am sure the origonal was great and fans of it will liek this.

you dont have to get defensive though when someone differs with your opinion or compares it to something else
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kuthedude:
I said you can find similarities, and we both said it has its differences. I don't think I was being defensive. Plus, if you never played the original, and haven't really played it, I don't think you have standing to compare it really. You can speculate, but at least say "never played it, but seems similar to this...".

Would you say all FPS's are the same? Probably not...I think you see what I am trying to say.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TJDuckett:
Dude, are you paid by the devs to post these bs responses? Man, if they're similar, they're similar. Get over it. You just said u weren't being defensive and continued with another defensive post.

And yes, all fpses have obvious similarities and that's why they fit into the fps genre. It's not like the dude called it a dopewars RIP or clone.

All spelling errors thanks to xt9 on my Evo!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
you are being defensive again. I acctually have played the origonal i played this and see that is is the same game as origonal however the new interface is cluncky and there are TONS of fcs. No one said it is the same. We said it was similar and under your new criteria i CAN say that. I hope they can make it work and make the FCs go away and the interface a little more polished.

i wouldnt say all FPS are the same but i would say they are all similar.

Middle Earth (the original) Space trader, as well as Dope wars, were once Amiga CNet BBS addon games in the late '80s - '90s. They were also made into "doors" addon games for IBM BBS, back in the days before the WWW. Similar and fun. Though you played against other people and only had one turn every 24hrs..

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
Seriously bro, calm down. Or just stop posting. You are the only one in this thread who has not been mature about YOUR thread.. I thought it was a decent start of a game. My comparison to DopeWars was a compliment, DopeWars is a classic and I restore it everytime I flash a new rom :)

I think there is a lot of potential for this game. I would suggest that you follow your own advice about not posting about any more beta software if you can't handle a little feedback that isn't "LIKE ZOMG WHERE HAZ THIZ GAME BEEN ALL MY LIF3??!!"

I'm glad they ported your favorite game of all time to the EVO and I hope it matures into a paid-on-the-market worthy game..

DOOD, My first DopeWars experience was on my Ti-83!! :D Damn those were the days.

I remember how freaking revolutionary it felt the first time Sierra built mouse control into a King's Quest game (I think it was KQ5?)
