bought a $6 one from frys but while it would charge the phones temp. would go up by 30 degrees and became super hot to the touch, needless to say I never used it again. It works great on my sons Ipod Touch though.
[Vibrant Accessories] theodork:
as I just posted a bunch of info here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8156283&postcount=83

But this works:

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.25177

Status: Dedicated charger, not USB device, which is good because...

Widget reading: 1100mah

Basically we need any 1amp charger that is detected as a charger (rather than a USB device) and our phones will pull its max charge of about 1100mah (according to the widget)

If you already have a charger that is detected as a USB device, you can short the data pins (2 middle contacts, use a tiny piece of foil if you want =D) in your USB cable and it will then be detected as a charging device and pull the 1100mah.

I would love it if we could compile a list of chargers (wall chargers, car chargers, and USB chargers) that are detected as car chargers out-of-the-box.
[Vibrant Accessories] bahnburner:
I picked up a Rocketfish flush mount USB car charger. I hate Bestbuy, but was in a pinch and needed one. It works great and I can still close the ash tray cover on my VW.
[Vibrant Accessories] theodork:
how much was it?

is it detected as a USB device or not?

can you use the current widget mentioned in post #1 and see what number it reports?
[Vibrant Accessories] bahnburner:
$14.99

Unfortunately it does show up as a USB device.

Max I logged was 863mA but average was between 855 and 860mA.
[Vibrant Accessories] theodork:
ah too bad, if the thing opens up easily, it might be fairly easy to connect the data pins (inside two pins of the 4 pins in the usb connect) and "convert it" to a dedicated charger.
[Vibrant Accessories] SamsungVibrant:
Baught some cheap charger off ebay for like 5 bucks, made in china, looks like it should cost about 25 cents to make, doesn't work. Charges for 2 mins, then stops charging, then starts again, then stops, then starts then stops, just loops.

Used the costco charger, came with the phone, works good so far. But phone gets warm charging.

Also have a 40 dollar charger, works the best, no problems with it.
[Vibrant Accessories] splat matt:
Posted this in another thread but this might be more appropriate:

Just use this charger by Samsung it is compatible with all Galaxy S phones according to Samsung and it is cheap $6.69! The widget shows and output of 1095 and these chargers support the Samsung rapid charging. Doesn't trigger the USB connection.

Amazon link for Samsung Charger

Also I found that some of the micro sd data cables will not mount.

Here is a compatible Samsung Branded micro sd data cable that does work with Mac OS and Windows $2.35!

Just a FYI for anyone interested, I am taking a crack at porting psfreedom to the epic4g. Not sure who would be interested in trying to use this.

EDIT 11/02/2010

Here is a psfreedom.ko if anyone wants to try it, I had to setup the Epic to load it on startup (via RC script) on DI18 stock, but using Epic Experience 1.2.04 with MixUp DI18 Voodoo I was able to load it after startup.

:O

Epic 4G = Samsung Vibrant for T-Mobile :D?
[Epic 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
the hardware drivers wouldnt be all that different but im sure would still need a revision of sorts. i cant imagine they used different usb chips in the different versions.

just to clarify to everyone when this works (not if :D) the very concept of it means you will lose all usb functions aka mass storage (access to your sdcard over usb), adb tethering and anything but charging. if its possible to make it into a script so that whatever file may be needed can make a backup and rename the original and then another script to make it revert then you could flip flop
[Epic 4G Android Development] bubby323:
However according to my knowledge you only have to run the exploit once to get backup manager on your ps3. Therefore couldn't we just run this script load up the exloit then flash back to stock and be done with it. Its not like you have to keep the exploit on your phone to use backup manager...
[Epic 4G Android Development] khalaan:
Shoot221,

Can you PM me? I need some info on the vibrant to build that in parallel.

Bubby323,

Wrong. You need it attached on each startup of the PS3. I will make this as user friendly as possible.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy S:
I'd say that anyone using the new 1.8.0 Amon_RA recovery should probably NOT use another phone's recovery, though. It has the backup of the wimax partition, which would possibly overwrite your RSA keys, MAC, etc.

AFAIK, Clockwork doesn't back that up yet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
He was basically able to restore his nand with cm6 over a non eng boot since cm6 requires the .76 eng boot in order to flash it onto the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toxictv:
Thanks, that's exactly right. So basically, anyone with a rooted phone on a HBOOT newer than eng .76 and Rom manager/clockworkmod installed can install CM6 simply by restoring from a backup of CM6.

If anyone wants it, I will create a clean backup of cm6 and upload it so they can have it regardless of their HBOOT version.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regulator207:
yeah be careful if you nandroid the wimax part from another phone then your 4g will only work if the other phone isnt using 4g.

Hi!

I got a My touch 3G to replace the tilt 2 for my wife since she wanted to play some games I got in my Galaxy S.

I was not expecting miracles but I was hoping that it would be able to run games like Angry Birds, Crush The Castle and Blow Up at great speed but I need to say I am dissapointed.

Angry Birds runs the best of the three and playable.

Blow Up is close to good but sometimes feel like its underwater or like watching the Bionic Man.

Crush the Castle is just horrible.

Is it because I am running Cyanogen 6 froyo?

Do you guys really only have about 30MB of free ram after booting?!

Thanks for helping...I am trying to decide if its worth an older ROM like Eclair or just sell this the tilt 2 and look for a Galaxy S and call it a day.

Regards
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] acejoker25000:
Have you tryed an overclock kernel? That may help with some lag. I've only played angry birds out of those and it runs great.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] shaolin95:
It is already at 528mhz or so...I have seen some stuff about 700mhz kernels but I am not sure if that is for this phone :-)
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] acejoker25000:
Ok tried out blow up and it ran great! I'm clocked at 844mhz on my phone and I'm using a 2.1 rom so if you overclock on a cm 2.2 rom then it should run like it does on your galaxy s check out the dev section and look at the dopio thread and scroll to the 3.1 kernels then everything should run smooth

Was positioning my screen icons when I accidentally managed to get 2 to occupy the same space... Bug... crash. System was stuck in a infinite loop trying to show both icons. Rebooting just got me back into the loop. Recovery mode disabled on my phone. Long story short I had a bricked phone!

Now my new phone doesnt have recovery either... so... You get the picture.

For the same reason I dont want to edit the apk myself because I cant recover. I was just looking to see if someone else had done it and had a tested solution.

I did look into the framework but I havent found the xml that contains this bit of interface yet...

Hi all,

I've read around on the internet and this seems to be a frequent thing.

It happens when trying to send a text message, or trying to get into the phones options. Everything else is operational.

The problem is, most of those posts are old, there is a lot of dead links and I cannot find a solution.

I know there probably wont be much help with my phone, as it is this:

chinavasion.com/product_info.php/pName/bravura-smartphone-wifi-windows-mobile-touchscreen-gps/

Everything was fine up until a couple of nights ago. I installed a few apps, and then this happend. I've tried the basics - "clean boot", trying different sim cards, trying another battery, a registery clean - but the problem persists.

I can tell you my info I have on the phone right now

Rom version 01.001.10 CHS 0_180

Date 10/1/2009

Radio Version 1.07.9291

Protocol Version DV3.0

Any help would be great on this. Hopefully someone will have a simple fix with a working link.

Thanks

It's hard to explain what my problem is but here goes nothing.

It seems I am the only person with this problem so I was hoping someone could try to reproduce it and possibly offer a solution.

When I have my I9000 connected through the car speakers (or any audio output with an AUX cable), the sound is mute when trying to make a call (hands free). Sound works fine when playing music and using navigation. Can anyone verify what I am talking about?

When I was using the Captivate using the stock ROMS...I didn't have this "no sound" issue. When I flashed any I9000 ROM on it though, again, the sound wouldn't work through the stereo speakers when trying to make a call.

Any takers?

All the photos I take get captioned with "SAMSUNG". This is lame and I'd like to shut it off but I have no idea where the setting is. Anyone know?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I don't know the answer, but I echo the desire.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
Not sure exactly what "caption" you're referring to. There's no "Samsung" watermark or anything appearing on my photos.

Now, having said this, if you are referring to EXIF data and the fact that by default Windows Vista, 7, and MacOS 10.5.x will display EXIF data fields when browsing a folder filled with images this is normal.

This is a feature, and it's not a new one. Every digital camera on earth made in at least the last 10 years inputs quite a bit of data into the EXIF header of images captured by it. Date, time, f-stop, focal length, even geotag data is stored in the EXIF header. All sorts of info is stored in an image EXIF header. So this is entirely normal. If this is the first time you've ever seen this, then you either have a newer PC for the first time, or this is your first decent camera.

You can disable the display of (or even add tons more) of these specialized folder data fields by right clicking on their header and adding or disabling fields as you desire.

You can also strip EXIF information from images with 3rd party software and/or batch image processing tools.

If merely seeing the word Samsung disturbs you, disable that field in the folder your browsing images in.

Here's an example image showing an example of the selectable nature of fields on my Win7 laptop...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
I think I stumbled on frames on my Vibrant camera app, but I don't recall how or where. I think one was just "SAMSUNG" on the bottom. I can't find it with my Captivate camera app, so that's all the help I can give.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
"stumbled on frames" what does that mean??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
I clicked something in the mess of a TW dialer/contacts app that brought me to the camera with a frame enabled. MySpace type photo junk.. Flashy graphics around the edges of the shot, and swiping left and right changed the image. I'm pretty sure one of them was just the Samsung logo in the corner.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
Are you referring to the "Audio Postcard" app?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
It technically does say it but Vibrant is replaced with SGH-T959

E.G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
That must be it - it was before I removed bloat, and I haven't seen it since. I guess that isn't what the OP was talking about, then. Not that he's come around to tell us.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iictinike:
Yes. The EXIF data caption field. I didn't think anyone would mistake what I said for anything else.

It's not a feature. That's a field for user comments attached to the image, not for some asshole programmer to stick a plug for the camera model in there when there's already a standard field for the maker and model of camera.

Yes, I know I can edit it, yes I know where it's stored. Yes I know I can batch strip it and no, this isn't my first digital camera. (You like to talk down to people eh?). I've been using "newer PC's" and digital camera's since you were wetting your bed.

My question was simple. Is there a setting buried somewhere or a file I can edit to disable this phone from tagging "SAMSUNG" in the caption field? If not, then I'll batch script stripping the thing out of there. PITA and I shouldn't have to because some puke stuck it in there.

ZING!!!!!! i hate to say it but homie you were just informed... lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iictinike:
Just not seeing it. It's a wordy, smell your own farts kind of thing with very little fact. Impressive to people used to 4chan or Digg, but really not a decent burn.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
At least no more juvenile bed wetting comments this time. I try to be wordy to be clear, though I admit I was a bit ticked at the pointless insults. I sincerely meant it when I apologized if I had come across in the initial reply as speaking down to you, though I still don't see what I might have said.

Still, EXIF headers being what they actually are, along with what IPTC headers are, and what practically all digital cameras made in the last decade do are considerable facts you seem capable of ignoring. Sigh...

Seriously though, it's a function of the camera software, which is closed source. It's not too terribly hard to attempt to hex and diff your way around the contents of the camera and camera-firmware apk's, and I actually did just this. The real brick wall here is not having the source, because it isn't available.

I'd say wait for CM6.1, which will likely use (or at least allow the use of) the aosp version of the camera software. From there you can likely eliminate the creation of EXIF data in the image headers.

Just seems like a colossal waste of time to care....Good luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
I agree with masterotaku, your OP was very vague. Plus, its not called a "caption", its metadata. I took a look at the metadata/EXIF data on my images and the only reference to SAMSUNG i see is

Equipment Make: SAMSUNG

Camera Model: SGH-T959

There are many other fields you can use to add your comments or tags. You are the minority, most people, including me, would hate if they left this data out.

So why exactly do you want this data stripped?
