[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam213:
hy guys

i try to open this thread because i have some little question about my galaxy s and i hope that here i can find one solution, or in any case, take some suggestion!

i have this smartphone since 2 months and during this time i have try to change some firmwares, because the original firmware for me was very very slow for one smartphone with this hardware.

i have try before the release jm2 and now i have onboard the release xwjm5, samset 1.9f (i have found it in this forum).

i have not particular situation, but i want only use this smartphone, during a normal day, without lag or "black screen".

i have also try to install "one click lag fix", as i have read always here in this forum, but i don't see (my impression) the speed better than before.

now, i'm waiting froyo, and i know (and i hope!) that this new version of android will solve this problem; but, during this time, i need a fast and stable version of eclair.

what you can suggest for me?

1: i try to install another time jm5 but before i make a "wipe"?

2: you can suggest other firmware that is more fast and stable?

3: any other idea/ suggestion?

4: you confirm that at this moment, the release of froyo is not stable and not good for work with this firmware all days?

thanks for your help guys!:)

Try Modaco's pre-rooted Froyo ROM (XXJP3), works fine for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Donald Nice:
I also tried JPC but for me it was to buggy too. So i decided to try the JM7 by Richthofen. After 2 days of usage my rooted JM7 with One-Click Lagfix is great! My phone is flying, and i havent found any bug until now. No lags, no blackscreens, everthing is fine and i will wait for the final version of froyo.

Completely wrong section sorry about this guys
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NetrixTardis:
huh?

the mytouch 1.2 is a hybrid 32a/32b phone.

There have been 2 ways to root this phone:

1) gold card method, which there are a couple of threads about and an unlokr article

(this uses the 2010 ENG SPL, flash recovery, then stock SPL/Radio)

http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/11/how-to-root-the-mytouch-1-2-and-fender-mytouch/

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734617

2) new Androot method.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=764530

what you posted *only* works for the original mytouch 32b (non-3.5mm) or 32A Magics. using that method could cause you to brick your 1.2.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loasjerry:
I am from Hong Kong, using vibrant.

I found that my vibrant will get easily hanged/not responding, occasionally.

No matter which rom I flashed, stock, roms from eugene. (Applied/not Applied lagfix)

When my vibrant is not responding, the back of vibrant near the camara or next to the camara, will get hot and hotter.

After a long press of the power button, for a hard reboot of the vibrant, the vibrant will be fine again. However, the situation repeat.

So, I want to figure out that is there anybody encountering the same situation.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BergInc:
I have not had this exact problem, but I have had mine randomly go black. It's done it 3 times in the 4 days I have had it. When it goes black, you can't turn it on, power does nothing, and you have to pull the battery to start it again. I have never let it sit long enough to see if it gets hot.

I have heard mixed thoughts, some people claim it's hardware problem, some say its a firmware problem =/
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AquaeAtrae:
I've seen my screen turn black with just the key backlights remain on. The device becomes and remains hot to the touch as if working very hard (drawing heavily on the battery and CPU) but it never responds again. Holding down the power button for a full five seconds resets it.

In my case, I typically see this happen while I'm trying to use Google Navigate (GPS) while also running Pandora (streaming radio) in the background. Often it works, but often it doesn't, especially on days with warm weather. I've monitored battery temperatures around 114 degrees F after rebooting.

I suspect it is related to the problems with the GPS (fixed to use supl.google.com) and very much hope it will be fixed with the promised OTA upgrade. Although I may have seen it a few times (very few times) without GPS. My other suspicion turns toward a process called mmcqd which seems to run heavily at times. Perhaps the lagfix will help with this "Multimedia Card Queue Daemon" process. ::shrug::

Just offering this as notes to compare. I'm curious if others see the problem with GPS disabled? Or if you notice the mmcqd process maxing your CPU?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heygrl:
I've noticed that when using GPS, only when the GPS gets confused.. say for instance that I'm driving, get out of my car with a Navi program still running and walk inside of a building/house.. bam, phone is dead with the buttons lit.. I've decided to not bother with GPS.

If you're having those types of issues try avoiding background sync with the forever sluggish stock eMail app, and don't load up the internal memory with a lot of junk.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nishantmehta9:
having the same prob... cant find the solution .. do u have any?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hipmel:
This happens to me on my stock vibrant everytime I try to use the maps program. On the off chance I get it to start working, as soon as it shifts orientation to landscape mode the whole thing will lock up. Usually I have to remove the battery to get it to reset. As was said, it appears to be caused by the faulty gps, so I usually just leave mine off.

However, I haven't noticed it happening while doing anything else and I'm hoping the upcoming ota update fixes these issues. (Don't want to bother with rooting stuff until I'm on stock 2.2)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heygrl:
The solution is to install the leaked update that we should be getting officially very soon. No freezing, no serious lag (installing apps will lag almost any Android device), no black screen freeze ups, much improved GPS, I'm lovin' it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] KrossXC:
I am rooted. There is no option in the recovery to "backup".

Any apps that will do a full-backup for me?

- KrossXC
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aridon:
Give it a day or two we'll have custom recoveries allowing full backups. All the apps in the market will back up data but not the actual stock system apps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
Titanium Backup is able to backup ALL applications and data, EVEN SYSTEM apps and data.

Titanium Backup for apps/data and My Backup Pro for texts, contacts, data will get almost all data that can be saved on the phone.

It isn't a FULL BACKUP such as a Nandroid Backup, but is the closest thing we got so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aridon:
From their website

"NOTE: It will not backup the system applications from your ROM. Only their settings will be backed up"
[Epic 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Backup? Simple...

cd backups\system
adb pull /system
cd ..\data
adb pull /data

Backup the system and data to your pc through adb.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jasonsf:
I haven't used adb. A few questions.

I'm a developer, so I'm not too worried about technical things and command line, but are there any downsides (performance, instability) to running the adb daemon on the phone? Is it just a background service that doesn't get in the way of anything? Is it "ok" to be running the development daemon on a "production" device?

Does the device need to be "rooted?"

Thanks-

Jason
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
No. Yes and no.

Please can anyone help me in this issue so that i can restore it to the originals.

Have you tried to reinstall Co0kies Home Tab yet?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haisam.Imran:
Yes i have reintalled it so many times but its still not working well and i also tried to disable HTC SENSE and then uninstall it but the problem is still there... pls help..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paten:
Go to your settings tab and select Menu>All Settings

Then tap "Today" and select the Items tab.

Uncheck HTC Sense and tap "OK"

Then go to the Start menu and tap "Settings", then "System", then "Remove Programs" and remove Co0kie's Home Tab and CHTEditor if that is installed as well. If you get an error trying to uninstall them, first try to reinstall the program and, if successful, then uninstall it.

After you have successfully uninstalled the programs go back to the Start menu and tap "Settings", then "Today" and select the Items tab. Reselect HTC Sense and tap "OK".

That should work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DN41:
why uninstall it?

you can make CHT look like standard sense..

for me, removing of CHT never worked perfectly..i had always to hard reset.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daydr3am3r:
Hi

I'm having the same problem here with v1.8.5 and Windows Mobile 6.1.

I installed CHT and the Editor and when I tried to run the editor I received an error informing me that CHT version doesn't match the editor's even though both of them are v 1.8.5. I tried uninstalling CHT without any luck. Uninstaller hangs. I managed to uninstall the editor and tried again to uninstall CHT but no luck. I disabled TouchFlo and tried again, same thing. I also installed MemMaid and checked all dependencies to remove any startup or running process/service but this also didn't work. I also tried to install over again and it hangs since it first tries to uninstall the older version. I checked the registry but most of them are directly related to Manila so I kinda gave up since I am trying to avoid a Hard Reset. Any other ideas about this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Disable sense and reinstall CHT. (reinstall will remove previous version)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noellenchris:
Please don't make false claims about others work. If CHT is really a virus then I think someone would have posted that 2yrs ago. It's been around way to long and I doubt the legit version is infected. Sorry you are having trouble.

[Captivate Accessories] candymann:
Does anyone know if the captivate will launch automatically into "car mode" when attached to the OEM car dock? (or launch the desk home app when placed in the desk dock?)

I know the motorola droid launches this "mode" based on some sort of magnet in the dock--was curious if the captivate has this feature as well.
[Captivate Accessories] Captivatedguy7:
My guess is that it'd have to be launched for desktop dock because you download the app seperate and so if it had any kind of sensor for the desktop dock it should already have the apparently installed. I could be wrong but that is what I'm thinking. I'm guessing it'd be the same way for the car dock but again I could be wrong. Hope this helps.
[Captivate Accessories] Captivatedguy7:
Apparently is supposed to be app. Sorry.
[Captivate Accessories] Shovelhead84:
If it does not do this automatically you may still have some options.

I am a big fan of Tasker now that I have been using it for a few weeks. You could use Tasker to launch the cardock app or change profiles when it detects specific criteria. For example it could be triggered by BT connectio/pairing or when you plug it into the dock. You could even set it to launch when gps detects a certain speed for a sustained period. The options are rather vast.

I'm not trying promote Tasker but, I have found it very useful for automated actions and profile scheduling.
[Captivate Accessories] candymann:
Appreciate the reply. Yet another use for Tasker. Too bad it doesn't happen automagically like some other android phones though.
[Captivate Accessories] redgren:
There are two Samsung apps in the market that might do what you are looking for, if Samsung ever decides to actually sell the freaking docks.

Swype is a paid application. Do not request warez.
[Android Apps and Games] Archer:
There is actually a free version knocking around, but you'll need to google it. It's a beta version that is not officially available any more, but obviously the apk still exists.

Incidentally, googling won't help unless you spell it right - swype ;)
[Android Apps and Games] marvin02:
Swype is only available as an OEM product (you get in when you buy the phone) or to beta testers.

Don't forget, warez is NOT allowed on this forum.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dagrim1:
In the camera and videoplayer app the power button acts as a screen locker... You can still see the dipsplay but the touchscreen is not responding anymore until you press the power button again.

Is this expandable to other apps? Most preferably navigation apps. When driving the bike I usually have the phone in my pocket, so when navigating on the bike taking it in and out of my pocket often makes me press something.

Locking the screen would be perfect (maybe also for other apps).

I looked at Tasker but weren't able to find anything there... any other options?

I used this one to flash the stock rom after a partial brick last night

http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/noobnl/Odin3epic.rar
[Epic 4G Android Development] shep211:
Just to let you guys know odin never flash the first time for me with my captivate. It just hangs and never flashs. After I reboot I get a screen with phone and pc. I use a button combo from there to get to download mode then flash again and it works. Not sure why it never works the first time. Not sure if the epic has the same issue but if it does this could be way its not working.

From this screen:

Take out your sim card, removable sd card, battery and open Odin3(you must open odin3 before you start or it won't flash. Do NOT put your sim or sd card back in).

Put the battery in.

Plug in USB. (the phone will power on and goto the phone+!+computer screen)

Hold down both Volume buttons, and then push and hold the power button. Hold all three and do NOT let go!

Wait for it to go black and return to the phone+!+computer screen.

When it goes black the 2nd time release the power button and keep holding the volume buttons.

You should now be in download mode, click start on Odin, wait for it to finish and start enjoying your phone again!

This button combo for the captivate!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
For the Epic 4G to enter Download Mode the Combo is :

with the phone turned off, phold the number 1 key on the QWERTY keyboard and the power button simultaneously

[Epic 4G Android Development] gdbassett:
I've been looking at the 1-click flasher, but have been a bit nervous to do it before a nandroid backup is available. Is the plan right now to wait for Koush and noobnl to finish the clockworkmod recovery except for people who are highly adept at recovering their phones?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Thats the only thing thats missing. Recovery and Restore. Cause it can flash .zip files with no problems
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
So one could flash a theme with this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Of course.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
SWEET here we go let the fun start.

ok so still the only way to get into this recovery is by pulling the battery?

Also what do you think would happen with flashing an evo theme?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Probably crash like hell. And you can get to the Recovery by using the button commands when the phone is off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Alright I'm totally new to the Samsung Android scene. I've got tons of experience with HTC & Moto devices though, so I'm not a total noob.

Yeah, on odin3 when you flash under "phone" you lose radio.

[Epic 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
phones dont come with the ability to flash images, thats why there is redbend_ua, its a adb command to flash em, but for now you have to install it
[Epic 4G Android Development] aixer:
I presume that what most users coming from an HTC device use from adb is the flash_image tool, which would not work on Sammy's proprietary filesystem, and that is where redbend_ua comes in (though apparently not working on Epic yet).

The Redbend_ua is working on the Epic.

[Touch HD General] Forevor:
Hi,

well my HD was not working in the last 3 weeks so i sent it to have it repaired.

.. whatever, in this 3 weeks i used the phone of a friend, a Nokia 5130 XM, and i was astonished (-not to say pissed-) that this little phone could do things that my THD couldn't.

For Example it had profiles that were not only choosen by the user but also bound to facts like bluetooth connected? or headset? and so on..

So i could do with this phone the one thing that was pissing me off for some time with the THD.

Have different ringtones in Car (bluetooth radio) and on the phone itself.

Well after i received my THD yesterday i have the same old problem: Sitting in the car, having THD connected to the radio, someone calls: THD plays his ringtone via integrated and the radio plays some default tone. Instead of havin' the THD shut up and sending its tone to the radio...

I would be really happy if anyone could help with this problem. Maybe i am just not able to find the configmenu for this problem.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
I'm not sure your HD is guilty here.

It would help if you state what car if it has factory BT installation. Or what radio did you build in...

My combo HD and Pioneer P75BT (non-factory) has the same problem... so I silenced radio and let HD ring. But my radio does not support ringtone from mobile phone - and never has!

And it was connected to Siemens S65, Siemens S75, Blackberry 8100 Pearl, Nokia 6310i, Nokia 6233, HTC Polaris and now to HTC HD...

So please, more details...
