When trying to download apps, it stalls on the starting download screen. I've left it there for 5 to 10 minutes without anything happening. I still have 201mb of space left for the apps. Is anyone else having a problem with this?
[Vibrant General] ryan562:
This is one of the reasons why I rooted my vibrant and installed ryanza's lagfix. Have u tried clearing your market history/cache?
[Vibrant General] r12037:
Cool, Thank you i will try that and see if it works.
[Vibrant General] ripsphone:
Mine does it. Not sure why but this fixes it......open Google talk, click on a status, and go "home". Works every time. Make sure you have talk ignored in you task killer too.

Hi

Thats nice, i'm also addicted to spb puzzle, but what i want to know is how to play it on HTC Sensation if anyway possible??? Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awenthol:
Just got my Evo yesterday and tried rooting last night...I seem to remember the Hero being a little easier but, anyway...

I followed the Unrevoked instructions/process for Stock 2.2. All was well until the last part where I had to go into bootloader and flash "Part 2: Recovery."

When I tried doing it, the installer came up for a fraction of a second and I ended up back at the main menu. As per the instructions, this should have gotten me back to stock 2.2 and repartitioned the SD. However, after flashing Fresh, I went back in and tried formatting the Ext partition and got an error. I'm assuming this last step didn't take and I don't have an external partition???

How would I go about correcting this? I have all the recovery menus, just not the external partition...am I just stupid and this is the way it is?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
you are right the unrevoked method is needlessly complicated but as of right no one has made a better guide yet. When you are in hboot what does it say at the top of the screen? It should say something like S=OFF, ver .00.79, etc
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awenthol:
I didn't see anything about the S-off, S-on stuff anywhere in the recovery. I thought maybe that was why I couldn't flash the zips but as i'm new to the Evo and never dealt with anything like that with the Hero, I didn't know what to do.

Anyway, I have found another way to get the external partition on the SD, so I've done that. I'm still not sure the root was correct but at this point I can flash ROMs and miscellaneous zips (can also use root required apps), so I may not worry about it unless something happens...My biggest concern was getting the ext partition.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superlinkx:
If you can flash ROMs, you are fully rooted. I'm going to guess you are probably even running unrevoked forever if that's true. You can check by going turning on the phone while holding down volume down. In the upper left corner it should say S-Off. If that's correct, you will be insured against losing root (virtually at least) Definitely make sure that is correct. Then flash your favorite 2.2 rom. I recommend Stock or Fresh's latest donation only Rom.

The stock app defaults to HD when you're on wifi/4g. When you are on 3G, it defaults to lower quality, but just hit menu--more--watch in HQ is still an option.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elikser:
Thanks friend! Works perfectly.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamescan:
That app doesn't have upload functionality.

And the default app only uploads over WiFi (refuses to work on either 3G or 4G connections).

Anyone know how to get an upload to work over 4G?

Thx.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebryanexperience:
Or just push the hq button in the lower right-hand corner. If its red then hq is on.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thearchon:
This app (and the HQ setting in the included app) don't seem to do improve the video that much.

The video quality is much higher when I download Youtube videos using the Youtube Ripper app. I am guessing that the HQ setting gives you a slightly better .3gp version of the video. The Youtube ripper app pulls down a .MP4 that is better quality.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lviv73:
Bubby's oasp rom(in dev section) has youtube.apk that plays HQ on startup,all you have to do is go in settings and select HQ default and it will play HQ on default and yo can push HQ button on the side to switch to LQ if you want.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tander_ZA:
Sounds like crap to me. They don't even mention the name of it. Would seriously avoid it.

I use, CoPilot 8.2 on my Desire, running Froyo 2.2. Works 100% and worth every penny. Offline maps too. ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuailan:
+1 to Copilot (I believe it's the best looking one). ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICO187:
ok i took a punt & bought the top one.

its licensed by garmin & through the activation process you need to email with your MAP CODE , PHONE MAKE/MODEL , EBAY USER ID & SETUP CODE to get a final activation.

see how it goes ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
As far as I'm aware, Garmin don't sell their software for Android.

They have it, they just only sell it with their Nuvifone.

Chances are you've just bought some warez.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tander_ZA:
You're correct - they don't sell software for Android. I don't think he has bought a legit piece of software.

Why do people ask for advice, then not take it? :rolleyes:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nzdcoy:
how does a version of software work on android, s60 and WM?

I hope for his sake he used paypal so he can get the money back supereasy.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tander_ZA:
Well, he would've had to download the Android version.

Copilot runs on Wimo and S60, too and iPhone. But you have to select your device first for the right version of the phone.

I do still think he got ripped off though. :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyWalker1726:
Download from market => Rom Manager , Download a Rom , Flash it

( dont know if it can save the rom on the phone memory though ... )

no that didn't work... but i was able to enable the card with sdk tools.... so i fixed it... only have to find a way to fix the usb as well and i'm good to go.... Will try a complete new rom flash and will see if that fixed it.

i would love to pull this off, can you mount a replacement camera from the epic or i9000s?

if you need a tester, ill be glad to help.

i bet sammy is going to release an updated version of the vibrant in the feature with a front facing camera, only makes sense since they left the spot in the chassis.
[Vibrant Android Development] Julianmgn:
i would love to give this a try, after its been done of course lol but if u get it working plz let me know lol

not sure but i think this is the camera

[Vibrant Android Development] siirial:
I too would love to do this, but I cannot find the damned camera. Still looking though. Put an inquiry into a US based company that has 5 "MC10170's" in stock. Let's see what they get.

Still want to know anyone's thoughts on the software side though....
[Vibrant Android Development] almyz125:
Nice find, now we need a dev. willing to work on the s/w part of this hack!
[Vibrant Android Development] siirial:
Oh didn't see that link. I have an email in to them to see if I can get some more info.
[Vibrant Android Development] almyz125:
great, i hope this is all possible, i posted over on the captivate forums to take a look at there H/W and see if it is possible for them, more people working on it the better :)

[Vibrant Android Development] siirial:
Very good point. Still think we have to wait for surplus parts to make it's way out there
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
sw33t can't wait until we get some cameras in

:D
[Vibrant Android Development] siirial:
I looked at the captivate teardowns and pics. Although they seem to have the same hardware (very much the same), the whole thing is laid differently. From what I could see there is not a spot where a front facing camera would easily go.
[Vibrant Android Development] almyz125:
Yea i looked at some too after posting, kinda stinks for them, looks like AT&T wanted there iPhone to be the only phone with a front facing camera, lucky for them AT&T users can unlock Vibrants and use them on AT&T! I believe the vibrant supports AT&T's 3g band, correct me if im wrong.
[Vibrant Android Development] g1g:
Why could we not just contact samsung and send our phone to them and have them add the camara for us....Our order one from the with the ffc as a option then we would have it all sw and hw....:):)

I would have to say, this is the kind of development this Vibrant needs. Great Job. If we see some real progress in getting this working, I will definitely be joining in on the FFC group.

I just placed the order, damn near 2 weeks to arrival? Once you take that into consideration the OP and Eugene took about 3days to get this thing into a beta stage. That's huge.

Even more huge is having something else to talk about other than Froyo and GPS.

[Vibrant Android Development] PolishDude:
Im sure once Eugene or Simbionix does this mod to their actual phone, this willl become an easy mod, for now I just ordered the parts since it will take a while for them to get here and im sure ill be impatient once the software side is made easy yet i wont have the hardware:)

This is the most amazing thing ever.

This may be a silly question, since I have never done this sort of this before so here goes. Can tmobile or samsung tell if you have opened the phone? Normally on electronics, there is a void sticker, so is there anything of the sort on this. If I open it up and decide not to go through with it, and something happens to my phone, will they be able to tell i opened it and void my warranty?
[Vibrant Android Development] joshthewaster:
