[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeepsdaddy:
Well I was looking for more like an IT POLICY deal

I agree.

I wouldn't run the risk of having a tech savvy security guard checking out my phone and being able to re-enable the phones camera. I was thinking of an application more along the lines of an IT POLICY. With our Blackberry devices the IT POLICY disabled the camera's functionality.

From the sounds of it, I may need to just have the camera module professionally removed or take a shot at it myself. Anyone have a link to the procedures for dismantling the Captivate?

If you MUST have this phone for work, then I understand. But if you don't, I wouldn't destroy the phone. Pick up a piece-of-crap unlocked t-mobile or AT&T phone from 5 years ago that you can mess with. Just bring that into work.

Don't destroy this phone. Everytime a captivate falls, a kitten is eaten.

[Vibrant General] animehawaii:
Won't go into how it happened but my Vibrant's been cooled to -200C, very dim screen turns on with a battery icon with thermometer icon next to it. I was wondering if I should be worried of stuff other then my phone breaking, like the battery blowing up. But I just figured I would post a thread about this because I think this is a first.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Lol... This may be the saddest, yet funniest post I've ever read.
[Vibrant General] animehawaii:
I'm so glad I have handset insurance on my Vibrant. I'm just scared about the water damage when the nitrogen condenses.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Battery and cover off in a jar of rice would take care of the moisture.
[Vibrant General] microfire21:
Man....I'm guessing you work in a lab or your a student....but....that is the worst/funniest post of anyone I have seen yet for a phone....hope you got the 5 bucks a month insurance plan...but do post if it can be brought back to life with odin....the termonator phone...would be totally pimp.
[Vibrant General] Only Loki:
You should have immediately turned it off and took our the battery. If you let it dry out and heat up you probably would have been fine.
[Vibrant General] animehawaii:
Holy crap, I thought my phone was a gonner for sure. It turned on randomly and I got a screenshot of SetCPU before quickly yanking the battery. Screenshot is attached.

[Vibrant General] kboater:
glad you were able to get that screen shot, but you should not have let your phone 'turn on randomly'. on way for that to happen is if the battery is in. imo, you should have battery out with it sitting in rice for 2 days. good luck
[Vibrant General] oswade:
This totally made my day. I'm telling all my friends about this story xD.

I'm glad it still works... lets hope it stays that way!...
[Vibrant General] animehawaii:
Well I stuck my phone in a dehumidifier over night and I figured what the hell and I turned it on this morning. MY PHONE WORKS! The water damage indicators turned a slight pink color but other then that the phone is in perfect condition. I can't believe my phone survived. I'm pretty sure this is the stupidest thing ever posted on XDA about someone damaging their phone. Now to flash JAC's new OC'ed kernel. :)
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
I seriously just lol'd and shared that with everyone in the room.

Sorry about your phone but I thought that was pretty funny
[Vibrant General] jz9833:
??? this doesnt make sense.

Condensing means to turn something into a liquid. the nitrogen was a liquid already...

Also nitrogen (N2) is an inert gas (unless heated to high temps) so it shouldnt mess with your circuits. Other than parts breaking due to the temperature shock (rapid molecular compression) it should be fine.

now the nitrogen could condense the water in the air and that might short circuits, but i doubt it. Only in am extremely humid area would that be a problem which is not somewhere liquid nitrogen would be stored
[Vibrant General] animehawaii:
That's what I meant. In my hurried frenzy to type it out after the shock of touching a frozen solid phone I mixed up my terms woot lol.

I live in Hawaii so it is quite humid at times so I was worried about the water in the air condensing on my phone when I got it outside. And the substance was a perfluorocarbon mostly stable at room temperature and under normal pressures.
[Vibrant General] hellcatrydr:
Plus now it's smaller than an iphone!
[Vibrant General] :
Err CPU frequency 800.000Khz? Is that right ?
[Vibrant General] xplanowestx:
Yes, your phone's CPU fluctuates based on current usage. The phone does not constantly utilize all 1ghz of the processor unless some sort of mod is used (SetCPU). This is to save battery and keep the temp down.
[Vibrant General] ConceptVBS:
Congrats. Now you have a 3.7" Super AMOLED. :D

Thx it fixed my problem
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdkoreclipse:
Overview:

Jdfroyo is a collection of fast and stable roms made for the Droid incredible based off leaked Android 2.2 updates.

Versions:

Sense- the sense version is a no bs Rom that is based off of the newest leak. It is deodexed and zipaligned and includes HTC EVO FRAMEWORK.

Vanilla: Most sense bloat is removed and is themes vanilla with HTC framework....very nice.

Installation:

Download the desired file, place on root of SD, do a full wipe, and install and flash boot.img fix after flashing the Rom. Kingklick KERNELS WORK WITH THIS RELEASE!

NOTE: YOU MUST FLASH THE BOOT IMG FIX IN ORDER FOR THE ROM TO WORK.

Link: mediafire.com/jdkoreclipse

BOOT IMG FIX : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XCI4XSSC

More info in next post.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdkoreclipse:
Features shared by both roms:

Zipaligned

Deodexed

Based off of the possibly official ota/ruu leak

Lame vzw bloat removed

Cool extra apks and rings added in

Oj wake cooked in

Faq:

1. Q.Why should i use this rom? Especially since you found some bugs in it....

A. Because it provides the user with a uniqueuser experience....if you want that in english, i am basically saying that different people like different things.

2. Q. Are these bugs harmful to my phone?

A. Not harmful, but they will disrupt the day to day use of the phone. All the issues are resolved by flashing the boot.img fix.

3. Q. Does this give me root if i applied the leaked ruu?

A. If you are s-off then all you need is clockwork or amon ra recovery to flash and you will get root perms while using the rom. If you are s-on and applied the ruu then you cant flash this, as there is no way to root the ruu at the moment. All other combinations that i dodnt mention CAN flash this.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] tcberg2010:
Please don't take this as flaming, I'm going to try and ask this as nice as possible, but why release it if there is a buggy boot.img?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdkoreclipse:
I wasn't aware of the bug until about 5 mins ago.

Edit....I think a faulty ramdisc was the culprit....for the time being (until Sunday) you will have to use the bootimg from another Rom based off the newest leak
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdkoreclipse:
Updated with boot img fix....the Rom works again.....flash away!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Berzerker7:
So...another awesome ROM by jdkoreclipse that's just going to be discontinued after people realize you're posting ROMs that are stupid and pointless.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdkoreclipse:
It's not pointless...its another Rom...like any other Rom on this site
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Berzerker7:
And you release them buggy to the public. People who have the fixes don't even want you linking to them...what does that tell you?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] eX_675:
Drama! gotta love the online bull**** lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jayisking:
What's even the point of using the evo framework. It was only favorable to begin with because it was the "official" build. Now we have the official DInc one so there is no point. At least from my understanding.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Carnage9270:
So many people bashing these days...no one made you click and take interest in this rom. If you don't like it you can always move on to the next thread. C'mon people, internet anonymity doesn't give one the right to act like this.

It's an on-going battle (war?), between jd (and rumours of multiple accounts and general tomfoolery) and other users. I try to stay out of it for the most part.

*on topic* jd, you said you updated the boot.img fix, but that means it is still required right (if permission is given, why not cook it in for now)? Also I didn't see the original link but if it was hosted on a personal site (instead of a free file hosting site), then you should never count on it remaining there - also it eats away at their bandwidth... btw did you ever check out that offer of free rom hosting from ROMn****.info? Heh not the best URL/name but it doesn't seem like it's going anywhere anytime soon.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Ok

I am using shubcraft 1.4c I have been using his builds faithfully.

So ive posted in the rom forum but I cant get any feedback on this at all.

With the build we have root.

I open setcpu to check my settings and setcpu is granted super user permissions.

I switch to the advanced tab and setcpu is granted super using permissions.

Didnt setcpu just get granted super user persmissions?

I open Root explorer and it grants it super user permissions.

I open it again and it grants it again.

So What I need to know from the rest of my fellow xda'ers Is are you experiencing the same thing.

Please help me out guys I dont need much hand holding. Just a little input from you all.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Come on guys... does it give you that same notification. thats all i need to know.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] geon106:
Not exactly a reply to your question, just wanted to ask is SetCPU worth the £1.99 price from the Android Marketplace?

Sorry i know its not an answer to your question, but not worth making a thread to ask lol
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] veda_sticks:
yes it is worth the 1.99 from the market. lots option options, highly configurable. Some memberes have gotten great battery life by using the profiles in setcpu.

Toi answer the OP question. any app that requests root access you will get notified. It will ask you, you can save this so it automatically requests that app but it will still notify you.

If you use linux its easy to uinderstand. Root access is like an account. everything in a linux file system has access levels. so accounts can be setup to only be able to access certain things, weather it can just read them, or write to them, or not read them at all. The root account can do everything, its very dangerous and this is why it is not active all the time. its only granted when needed, and only to those users and programs that are allowed, otherwise the system would be wide open to being hacked and malicious programs would be everywhere.

only grant trusted apps root access. though, ive never came across any apps wanting root that shouldnt need it. any app that does explicitly states it does and why.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] veda_sticks:
Just to clarify, root access only lasts a small amount of time. it must be reuqested again if used by the same program after a certain amount of time.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Ok thank you. I guess I never experienced it with my G1. Once an app was given root access it was set.

I've only given root access to setcpu and root explorer nothing else.

I did not know that the access expires .

I was just trying to figure out why my advanced settings in setcpu never stay where I put them.

thanks for the info guys.

oh one other thing. It ask it almost everytime . I could still be in the program and go back to the advanced tab within a few seconds and it will ask me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] veda_sticks:
Ur settings shoukd stick. Have u got the set on boot option ticked. Alsoo whn it ass for root access u can set it to remember it so ur not clicking allow all the timr
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
The box is checked allow. I was just alarmed because The advanced settings of setcpu would always revert back to stock

I Have

sampling rate set to 250000

up threshold set to 75

and powerbias is 500.

but those always revert back to 200000

up threshold 60

down threshold 30

powerbias 0

SO..... This is a pretty barebones theme, the only thing i have modified so far is the framework to change the notification panel only. I also made a custom dockbar for LauncherPro. I have only tested this on my N1 running the latest nightly.

Try at your own risk. Do a nandroid back up.

Enjoy.

+Make sure you change your notification colors in the CyanogenMod settings under User Interface

I have exported my xml to match my screenshots. Download the cmparts_ui.zip and extract on the root of your sd.

[Android Themes] knox420:
Hi, nice one. But I got 2 issues:

There's a white line right under the Launcher Pro Dock. I set your "bw_2glass copy.png" as the dock background. Please see attached screenshot.

The notification drawer has "T-Mobile" sort-of hardcoded in it. I've got a completely different carrier...

Any hints on that? Thanks

I'm in Cyanogen 6.0.0 stable

EDIT: Okay, now I get it: it's actually in the picture. Would've liked it better without it...

For some reason I thought this section would be more appropriate. But I guess you are right, I may need to post my themes under nexus theme section from now on. Thanks.

[Vibrant General] jonjacobmoon:
This just on a select group of my videos, but a few of them don't have audio working in the stock video player and Act I. The video goes, but not the audio.

In Rockstar Player, the suspect videos played just fine.

Any reason why this might have happened and how to fix it?
[Vibrant General] XfooYen:
my guess is that the suspect videos are coded in 5.1 or 6.1 surround. The stock media player doesn't support this. You could demux the audio to 2 channel and they will probably play fine.
