it tags onto the end of the site url after the "/" or after ".html"... but I just checked, it looks like whether or not is works is site specific. Works fine on Engadget (which is what I browse frequently) but not CNN.

I do use skyfire, but it just seems to me that it has been getting consistently slower in page loads/refreshes when scrolling and more prone to timeouts over the last year. I had thought updating from the older version would help, but it seems about the same.:rolleyes:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] digitalhater:
Hello guys,

I have a big issue and I'm affraid not to damage my device.

Here's what's happening:

When I've first started using Android builds...my phone batt. was charging to 100%.

After testing and playing with different builds..it would only charge up to 97%.

After even more testing...it only charges up to 95%.

I've always done a task29 before installing a new ROM, I've formatted the SD card each time as well.

Do you know what is going on? I'm affraid that when I leave the phone charging, it won't stop doing it (the led is orange and the icon of charging is there) thus damaging the batt or the device.

Thank you very much for taking the time to help.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] traithudo:
I guess the answer you're gonna get from others is "Search before asking". I won't do so though. The answer might be you are using old kernel, updating kernel should work. Alternatively, switch to WinMo and charge it to full, and boot Android.

You should not let baterry drain to 15%-20% while using Android also
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] atoore:
Let you phone charge to 100% in WM and then boot into android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] misterfuller86:
Does this solve the problem?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mattfmartin:
Charge to 100% in winmo. Leave it still plugged in, and boot android. That way the 100% caries over to android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] EclipseX:
why we not sould let batery drain to 15%-20% while using Android

???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] traithudo:
This question is way hard for me lolz. Really, I do not know the answer, just an experience I collected from other posts. I guess draining too deep out of HD2 Android will make the battery reading function work improperly
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] digitalhater:
Thanks guys!

Will check if charging to 100% in WinMo and then booting into Android works and let you know.

I'm using the latest kernel available.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] longobongo:
some users have reported that letting the battery drain completely in android corrupts the file system on the sdcard. so best to charge when nearly empty or switch off/boot into WM until you can find a power source.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] moontashir:
Something that worked for me!

I had the same issue. Charged till 100% for the first few days. Then it used to top at 97%...95...and finally today at 92%. What I do is I let it charge till the led goes green(In android), and then I switch it off and take the battery out. Leave it for a few minutes. Then put the battery in and boot to android. Voila! 100%!

I guess its something to do with the batterys memory or something. It just needs a resetting from time to time.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rkalas:
I also experience the same. When I boot android with battery fully charged, it shows 100%, but when I charge it while running android, it shows max around 90%, even when fully charged. After reboot it shows 100% again.

I do not think it is the battery, but the linux driver.

Moreover, when I boot android when charger is plugged in, the LED does not lit and android does not report charging. When I unplug and plug in the charger, android shows charging and the LED lit orange/green.

I hope someone figures this mystery out soon, this is driving me crazy. When I first started running Shubcraft 1.4d everything was PERFECT. Battery charged fully with no problems & I got great mileage out of it. Then I installed the 1.5 update & it just stopped charging properly. Now no matter what I do it won't fully charge even though I've reverted back to 1.4d. I've tried charging in WM then booting into android, deleting the batterystats.bin file through terminal, letting it die completely then recharging it, all with no luck. Tonight I think I might try fully charging in WM & doing a clean reinstall of Android.

[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
So will this phone sync with outlook? Don't see any apps on the sprint or samsung site.
[Epic 4G General] gamescan:
Use Activesync via Hotmail to sync w/Outlook contacts and calendar for free OTA.
[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
there is no way to go directly via the cable? I find that syncing via net changes fields. + I hate hotmail ;)
[Epic 4G General] gamescan:
Well you don't need to use it for email.

I've never had an issue with Exchange Activesync screwing up fields between devices. The Hotmail implementation just happens to be the cheapest one out there. ;)
[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
So in the Epic there is a way to select hotmail as a contact source? or does it have to be done through the email config.?

found a rant at sprint about this:

http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/208546

Looks like samsung has an app that was released for another carrier.
[Epic 4G General] gamescan:
Set it up as a corporate account.
[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
What a PITA,

this is quickly turning into a major headache. Sync shouldnt be that big of a deal. Kies is so bloated.
[Epic 4G General] gamescan:
Sync isn't a big deal if you use Activesync OTA. It happens automagically in the background and everything is up to date.

Using a cable to sync is so 1990. ;)
[Epic 4G General] itsmebryan:
Please tell me how to do that. You will be a lifesaver I already have everything backed upto hotmail. I'm coming from win mo and I'm lost on android. Thanks
[Epic 4G General] itsmebryan:
how and where?
[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
I'll monkey with it some more later today, looks like you can set-up the hotmail email as a corporate account on the EPIC 4G, on the PC side I saw an app from microsoft:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...89-af2e-41f9-a175-f93e1377959f&displayLang=en

that should allow synchronization from PC to hotmail. I'll whip-up a tutorial later today after I can test it out.
[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
I'll be following this closely.

I was able to get all of my Outlook contacts loaded without losing anything (i.e pictures), by saving them all as .vcf files from Outlook, placing them on the SD card under a "contacts" folder, then on the Epic telling it to import all of the .vcf files from the SD card. That let me get all my Outlook contacts loaded without having to push them up to a Gmail account, then back down to the phone, losing some of the extra stuff Outlook stores, but it's a static operation, meaning if I change a contact on the phone or in Outlook they're out of sync then, and also no syncing of the calendar.

Hopefully syncing Outlook to Hotmail via the add-in, and then using the Hotmail to sync the phone will bring over all the info.
[Epic 4G General] gamescan:
Hotmail Exchange Activesync details:

http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_...ar-and-contacts-with-exchange-activesync.aspx

Settings -> Accounts -> Manage Accounts on the Epic (or any other Android device).

Add account and choose "corporate."

On the PC side, grab the Hotmail Outlook connector (free from MS) to sync Outlook directly. Or use Windows Live Mail which syncs natively to Hotmail by default if you don't want to pay for Outlook.
[Epic 4G General] itsmebryan:
When I try it keeps say can't connect to server. It puts as "\my username" then has sever name as hotmail.com . Then I get a "unable to connect to server" what am I doing wrong. Thanks
[Epic 4G General] latinmaxima:
You should be able to go into menu>settings>accounts and settings> add account and it will ask what type. The moment used Moxier not sure what is on the Epic as I have to wait a few more days for mine but I will let you know as soon as I do!
[Epic 4G General] usernamer004:
how did you go about getting the contact files (currently *.msg) into the *.vcf format?
[Epic 4G General] itsmebryan:
I kept trying over and over and all I would get is something like " unable to connect server" I finally gave up. I went to the gmail account they make you setup to use marketplace. I when to setting, import contacts and put in my hotmaill account and it got all of the contact. The went to my phone, went to accounts, found my gmail account and synced my gmail account on my phone. Now all of my contacts are on my phone. :) I not as woried about my calander. I will just use google calander to add my dates. The year is almost over so it's not that much to update manually.
[Droid X General] cbaty08:
What does it do exactly? And is it safe to clear it once in a while to give the system a refresh?

-thanks

EDIT: NM.. read up some more and it seems to be safe to do so. MODs please delete...
[Droid X General] LexusBrian400:
Its ok to leave this here. People can learn from it.

I use root explorer to completely erase everything inside of /data/dalvik-cache

Its ok to delete every single file, they get rebuilt upon a reboot. I suggest rebooting immediately after cleaning the file dalvik-cache file.
[Droid X General] cbaty08:
It seemed to help actually....

I went into system/data and completely deleted the whole dalvic-cache folder and it worked beautifully. I would suggest this to all after you have finalized your MODs!
[Vibrant General] silverwolf0:
Short of using a sim card from a different carrier, how can I tell if my phone is unlocked or not? My seller said it was unlocked.
[Vibrant General] choihyun:
sorry i dont quite understand. so have you tried using at&t sim card?

either way its really simple to unlock.

-open the market and search for "sgs unlock" (it will be called "samsung galaxy s unlock" and under it it will say "DaGentooBoy"

-after you install it, it should open up automatically(if not click on applications and look for it) and look for the unlock code(should be random numbers)

-turn off your phone, insert sim card, power up your phone and it will ask for the unlock code.

heres where i got the info

Sorry bud. The easiest way is to put another carriers sim in to find out if it's unlocked. Even if it's not, I unlocked mine in literally less then 5 minutes.
[Vibrant General] hkfan:

Then your phone is locked to T-Mobile. The others are always off. It's the network lock that people are talking about when they say unlock a phone.

I unlocked my 2 day old phone last night with the windows unlocker tool. I had a SIM that I got in India and it worked for unlocking purpose. When I put the T-mobile SIM back just had to re-login facebook, google etc. I think those information are stored on SIM and not the phone.

Does anyone know future firmware OTA updates like Froyo or anything else that T-mobile will push to our phone will lock it to network again?
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
Anyone:confused:
[Vibrant General] speoples20:

[Vibrant General] os2baba:
Lost my unlock status

Just a quick side note. I got my phone unlocked from T-Mobile. And it worked like a charm. Last week as I was changing SIMs, suddenly I found it was locked. Rooted Stock ROM. I don't know how or why it happened and it's only happened once. But it would be a good idea to keep your unlock code on a piece of paper somewhere so you could access it if you were away from home or a computer. The whole point of unlocking a phone is so that you can use it on another carrier. I travel around the world and drop local SIMs all the time into my cell phone. This happened at home so no problem. But if this happened at an airport, I'd have been in trouble. Lesson learnt. Thought I should point it out in case someone else runs into this.
[Vibrant General] IrieBro:
I am a longtime tmobile subscriber. I got the unlock code immediately. I finally got to an att store and unlocked my vibrant. I just entered that code and it is showing network lock ON. WTF? I had to login to everything after I unlocked it too.

hi, i had my G1 for about a half year it worked fine with 2g sim card (some android 1.6 version of cyanogen mod i bought the phone with), then i had to upgrade the sim card to 3g and the problems began, i couldn't copy contacts from the sim card because the phone would crash when i do import, i upgraded to cyanomod 6, when i do import he won't show contacts at all in the simcard, i took my old phone copied all contacts from the sim to the old phone then from the old phone to some 2g sim card i had, and from the 2g to the phone, the workaround worked, but now i have new issue, the phone doesn't receives sms msg's. does anyone knows why does the my G1 might have problem working with 3g sim cards?

[Epic 4G General] FoxRacR17:
So I got my EPIC and freakin love it, such an awesome upgrade from my crappy hero. My question though is that I know on the hero you could type in ##PRL# and put in your MSL code and you could force the phone to use a verizon PRL. This is really handy because at my work i get HORRIBLE 3G reception and much better with verizon so i usually switched to a verizon PRL whenever i was at work. I noticed that the PRL code does not work on the EPIC though, anyway to do that hack?
[Epic 4G General] asj2583:
I would like to know the code for this as well. Although I want it because the latest prl (60670) gives me 1x and I would like to downgrade (60664) to get 3g access again. Thanks to anyone that can help.
[Epic 4G General] Shocky0:
Any updates on this?
[Epic 4G General] asj2583:
...bump...
[Epic 4G General] Six-Deuce:
yea same here, i tried the ##775# from the evo guide and it's obviously not working, and neither was the ##778#, so if anyone finds a code that works, please let us know.
[Epic 4G General] sacwoo:
I am sure this is possible, the question is when will it be done? Hopefully sooner than later.
[Epic 4G General] FoxRacR17:
Still waiting, I'm an xray tech and work in a hospital so that means lead walls :( Sprint service SUCKS pretty much everywhere in the hospital, however there is a verizon tower on the hospital so all my coworkers who have verizon get 3g literally everywhere, and when i had my hero it was soooo nice being able to switch PRL's and also have service, now with the epic i'm hurting BAD.
[Epic 4G General] cineung02:
bump bummp
[Epic 4G General] jlbiad:
Perhaps this is gonna sound dumb, but I don't think you're looking to install the Verizon PRL, which contains the preferred roaming for Verizon users (ie, Verizon users don't roam on Verizon), but are simply looking to force roaming onto Verizon?

There's Roam Control in the market which forces roaming. Using it now. Seems to work.
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
he means is theres a prl you can load to exclusively use verizon but it is roaming however you get full 3g speeds not just 1x with normal roaming
[Epic 4G General] monadzback:
So roaming, even though it says 3g, is not as fast as it can be? Interesting.
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
normal prls and roaming actual roaming (showing the triangle) is limited to 1x speeds do not know why it still says 3g while using the hacked prl like 00001 will give u verizon towers and signal and 3g speeds with no triangle so to the phone you are not roaming (set it to sprint only and youll see) i use to do this with the hero but sprint caught on and starting showing data roaming
[Epic 4G General] johncjenc:
I use this hack on my evo constantly. My wife just got epic and after much research, using qpst or similar program is the current alternative. There's no native program (like epst) that interfaces with the dialer on the epic, hence no ##775#. You need the msl and put the phone into modem mode ##8778# for qpst to recognize programming.
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
too much hassle in that case
[Epic 4G General] hollisjamison:
Can you go into a little bit more detail about using the MSL and ##8778#? Also, is this a permanent solution?
[Epic 4G General] johncjenc:
Get a copy of qpst programming software. I'm pretty sure its considered warez here so i can't distribute it. A Google search will get to it.

I think the more appropriate term would be persistent, rather than permanent. It can be changed, just go to update prl on the handset's android menu. Also don't use verizon prl's use alltel. You can get evdo service wo roaming in most cases.
[Epic 4G General] monadzback:
This sounds very promising. Ill be trying this after work.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
I tried that ##775# thing and it asked for a password. What is it? This is new to me and id like to try to see how it works :o
[Epic 4G General] churro7:
thats ur msl
[Epic 4G General] Six-Deuce:
A_flying_fox, that's a menu u can get into by using an msl which you can get from sprint and be able to access a menu where too can load different prl files into the phone to use other carriers towers if you have issues with your connection in different spots.

Also thinking out loud, would we be able to manually place the desired prl file where the current sprint prl is on the epic and just swap it out manually through root explorer or some other program.. Can anyone test this?
[Epic 4G General] monadzback:
So how do i know which verizon or alltell prl to use? there are many to choose from...

Also I put my phone into modem mode but qpst will not recognize it.
[Epic 4G General] Nucleartx:
It usually puts it at COM 8 or so. You have to manually go and find it.
