wait you can do that? that'd be awesome! please & thanks! i really miss this feature.

I saw a thread that will allow me to remove HTC customizations & i'm gonna try that when I get home tonight to see if this is actually still on the phone but skinned over with Sense so it's not accessible.

*edit* tested the files to change back to M$ version of the battery & backlight settings & it looks as if HTC stripped the battery information tab entirely.

I think if you hold menu during boot it will come up in safe mode. Sometimes I'll do it accidentally if I touch the right place at the right time when handling the phone when it boots.

HOLLY COW, SAFE MODE IS REAL!

I've tried to get into safe mode in the past to no avail.

Out of the blue, I look down on my phone it says "Safe mode" on the lower left corner in a ghosted box. How the heck did I get myself into there? I've tried every key combo in the past to no avail. I musta restarted my phone and had my hand on the capactive buttons without knowing.

I want to take a snapsoht with Shootme, but it won't let me open Shootme for some reason.

LOL anyway just got excited there for a second.

I had my vibrant go into safe mode once also, my phone was not charged so when i got to work i plugged it into my work computer, after a while grabbed my phone and it was dead, Zip, zero, nada. After awhile pulled the battery out, and put it back in, the phone started up, but into safe mode. What i believed happened was when you plug in a mass storage device (AKA Thumb drive) into a computer at work, it trying to encrypt the device, and i think my phone said "Nope not gonna happen" and locked itselfs. Not sure, but not going to plug itin again.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GaryS1004:
I've had my Captivate for a week now, rooted, tweaked and have it generally where I want it.

I'm having a problem that I discovered this evening. I went to preview a WMV file which I had sent to me this morning. I watched the video without problem this morning. When I went to preview the file again this evening, I click on the preview button on the gmail, and a pop up came up saying, "Fetching Attachment" which is the norm. Then the popup now says, "An SD card is required to download attachments"

I went in and started trying other attachments which I need for work and I get nothing but what I put above. Looks like the internal SD card is not being recognized. I went in and changed the internal from a hidden file to allow the Gmail program to "see" the SD card, ... No go... Still doesn't work.

It seems that there are a couple of people posting the same problem... Any ideas or suggestions???

I now have another app not working because it doesn't see the internal SD Card on my Captivate. Beautiful Widgets cannot funtion because it also needs an SD card............

I can see everything via Droid Explorer and when the phone is mounted as well.........

I need some help here to figure out what's up...........
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hobbes487:
I have a European version Galaxy S i9000 that I am using in the US on AT&T. I have flashed JM5 firmware and then HACKECLAIR. I have been noticing that I don't get very good 3G reception. Occasionally it will say '3G', but most of the time it switches between 'H' and 'E'. Is anyone else using a SGS on AT&T in the US seeing this? Is it possible to flash a better radio?

Thanks for any comments.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] enigmameusa:
H is quicker than 3G, I think it stands for HSPDA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DARKKRAKEN:
Listed slowest to fastest

E = EDGE

3G = 3G

H = HSPDA

so if you're mostly getting H you're not doing to badly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kil:
isn't 3G "UMTS"?

and like enigmameusa said, it's HSDPA, not HSPDA :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you can not flash better radio

SGS is hardware radio, not software

if you have a Euro/Asia version then you are running 900/1900/2100 for 3G and HSPDA

if you have the American / Canadian models then you have 850/1900/2100 for 3G and HSPDA
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tkalli:
The AT&T 3G band is 850. European model does not have this band as mentioned.​
[Galaxy S I9000 General] decepticon:
AT&T also uses 1900 for 3G.

The OP is just in an area with more 850 and 1900 3G coverage. You would fare better selling the European one and picking up an unlocked Vibrant which is identical to your model from Canada or getting the Captivate from AT&T.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgkahn:
Beware the captivate has 3g upload speeds locked as in u will only get up to around 300 k upload speed
[Galaxy S I9000 General] snapper.fishes:
Great, so even 3G has different standards in different country?

Why is it so difficult to have a common standard around the globe? This is why we can't have nice things...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] decepticon:
The standard is the same globally, it's the frequency in which it operates that veries. It's due to spectrum that may be used in Europe being used for other services here. It goes back to a time before there were mobile phones.

Even in the US, T-Mobile and AT&T operate at different frequencies for 3G.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nirvana388:
The Vibrant is not identical to the Canadian one, I really wish Bell hadn't insisted on calling theirs the "Galaxy S Vibrant" as this creates unnecessary confusion as it is very different from the T-Mobile vibrant. The Canadian Model is essentially the Euro one but with 850/1900/2100 3g instead of 900/1900/2100. The T-Mobile Vibrant uses 1700/2100, has a different button configuration and lacks a front facing cam.

You would really be best buying a captivate from AT&T since you are with them lol, unless you really really want the Canadian design and front facing cam, in which cause you'd have to buy a Bell one and unlock it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mm1983:
I had posted this in another forum but did not get any reply. Its a noob question so please bear with me. I wanted to know how to go about modifying an existing apk file. Below is what I am doing.

1. Copied the .apk file to my computer

2. Used apk_manager to decompile the apk

3. Made a small change in one of the xml files

4. Used apk_manager to recompile the apk and the sign it

5. Sideload it using the Sideload Wonder Machine

I am not able to sideload the app. Do I need to uninstall the existing app before sideloading its modified version? Or just giving it a new name would work? Thanks.

-mm
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbs11:
Try using adb instead of Sideload Wonder Machine. just CD your android sdk tools folder and type

"adb install ~path to file"

or on mac

"./adb install ~path to file"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mm1983:

I guess this means I need to uninstall the existing application. The app I am trying to tweak is Gallery3D.apk. I made the change and remamed it GMMM.apk. The original app also had an .odex file which I did not touch.
[General Questions and Answers] ncdistro:
Sorry in advance for my lack of knowledge.

First, I strictly use this device as a PDA and for wifi. I only have 850 mhz in my area, so I can't use it as a phone even if I wanted to. But I LOVE it and it's my 3rd universal so far.

I have a T-Mobile MDA pro, that I recently replaced the screen in, I bought broken 2 years ago, and never fixed it until now.

Well, it has windows 6 on it. But, it also has so much stuff from the previous owner, hundreds of contact, events, birthdays that pop up as reminders, etc.

My question is this.

If I do system restore in the system settings, or a hard reset to erase the data, will it affect the rom, and make it revert back to WM5? It was actually a QWERTZ layout, I think originally from overseas, and don't want the ROM changed.

I just want a quick way to erase all the data, so I don't have to do it manually, without affecting the rom.

Thanks so much in advance.

I noticed that I have much less reception on my new vibrant. I use to have full 3g in my house or outside my area with G1. Now I see zero bars to one bar and scattered throughout my area. I know this is a problem with other as well...

i guess my question is if there is any tips to increase the reception like the gps fix. Or if having wifi or gps on help with reception? Or just wait for a update.

Thanks
[Vibrant General] clivo360:
the vibrant shows less bars of reception than most other phones. However, this doesn't mean it is actually getting less reception. It's all how it displays the signal.

My vibrant is great at holding onto a signal in low coverage areas, much better than my last phone.

Ok, but I'm with the guys that say their G1 had better reception. I had 2 bars 3g in my house with G1 and only get edge in my house on my Vibrant.

Sent from my Vibrant using the XDA app.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
The G1 doesn't have better reception, just better antenna placement. I'm sure if you moved your hand away from the antenna or put it in the same orientation as the G1 it would pick up 3G. The G1 has a medicre antenna, -101dBm at my house where there is no LOS with ANY cell tower. It would occasionally get worse. That's pathetic. My CLIQ got -91dBm even with my hand blocking the antenna. Not getting 3G doesn't mean the phone has poor reception, it's a number of things and most of them being a weak 3G signal to begin with. First thing to check would be the CID's for the 3G and 2G network around your house to see if they're coming from the same tower.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leoon:
Hey,

I tried to look in the market for a suitable keyboard for my use but the ones that came in the search didnt have what I'm looking for,

What I'm looking for is a keyboard with 4 lines, 3 lines with the letters as usual, and a line a top of it with the numbers..

I'm looking for that because I use a lot of numbers in between letters so its painful to press another button to get to the list of numbers and then return (even the keyboard with long press to number slow down the typing process)..

So is there a keyboard like this?

I've only found one other thread on this subject and the answers are inconclusive at best. Why is the image quality in all 3 browsers(ie, opera, skyfire) so low? It has nothing to do with the zoom level, the image is poor even when fit to screen I know these are very high res images I'm looking at yet the quality is very low. The phone actually treats all my pictures like this, like the ones I have saved to the phone itself. Does the phone just have a cap on what resolution it will show when zoomed in? The other thread mentions that sometimes carriers lower the quality of all images, but I've been browsing on wifi.

[Epic 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
how can you get 5.1 with two channels left and right?
[Epic 4G General] boomerbubba:
Assuming it works the same as on some audio receivers, the technology emulates the mico timing of the way the separate channels would sound when remixed into two channels, as they would if the sound sources were physically separated live. So, for example, there would be a trace of the left, center, rear and bass channels mixed into the right channel with subtle micro delays like they would in a live performance, and vice versa. (If you are sitting on the right side of a concert hall, the sounds from the stage on the left arrive at your ears ever-so-slightly later and softer than sounds from the right side of the stage. You can't discern this consciously, but your brain interprets it into something you perceive as a richer live sound.)

I have found that such technology works pretty well with many movie soundtracks, and even with live-recorded music such as classical performances -- especially through headphones. To my ear, it does not work so well with speakers. Also does not necessarily work so well when the studio music tracks were artificially mixed by the original sound engineers in the first place.
