[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hokiemiata:
so Ive had a variety of HTC smartphones with WM, which I am thoroughly tired of. so I am going android. I did a lot of research and ended up getting a captivate from Amazon. It should arrive early next week. I have some questions that I didnt find in the FAQ or Wiki.

First, does the captivate have a *magnetic* compass? I know you can get apps for a digital compass that works with GPS. thats. I havnt seen anything that definitively says that it has a magnetic compass.

Seeing as how this is a really light smartphone, is the battery life painfully short? My HTC Pure was just bearable.

TIA......
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
I can't answer your compass question (I believe it's digital), but as for battery life, I EASILY get a day out of it with heavy usage. on days with lighter usage, I can fairly easily get two days out of it, though it'll be all but dead by 11 PM the night after I unplug it (40ish hours)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phytrax:
If I use Pandora very much I won't get a dull day but other than that I don't have much trouble. Playing games or video for more than an hour will probably make you run out before the day is up also.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hokiemiata:
Compass anyone? I know the issues with the GPS etc., need to confirm if a compass works without GPS.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
I believe it had a magnetometer.

there is a metal detector app in the market and it works. also dialing*#*#1472365#*#* brings you to the gps settings under show sensor data it has a field for magnetic field.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiMike:
I have no clue what type of component the compass is, but compass apps will work without enabling GPS.

I am using FroyoStone Sense V2 build - this build is using Android 2.2 with sense and it is brilliant on my HD2. I have set it up and am quite happy with it, but one thing I cant seem to find is how to turn of the vibrate on the dial pad.

I have managed to do it on the keyboard but cant seem to find a setting for the dial pad its self.

Does any body know how to turn this off, or is there a .apk I can download to turn this off?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] trilogy069:
On your phone 'dial' pad screen, click windows button, Preferences and some where in the middle you will see "Enable Haptic Feedback" check or on check, whatever your preference is and this will take care of Haptic feedback when you dial.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Stephen:
That option does not seem to be available in android 2.2 :(

From home try hitting the settings (windows) button and select Sound. third from top is "Vibrate - vibration feedback for calls and notifications." Uncheck that and the vib should go away.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croolis:
Hello,

i'm running my i9000 with JPC firmware (installed through KIES, not rooted) - very successfully I must add .. no crashes, and generally fast performance.

Today I tired using the Mobile AP functionality - I can connect my laptop to the mobile AP, I can ping the IP of the mobile AP, DNS resolution works, but pings do not come back / browsing does not work. When I ping something from CMD it gets as far as resolving the IP (hence DNS works) but nothing else.

Browsing on the mobile phone is fine, and connected through KIES over the USB cable, USB tethering works fine too (and very fast - on a par with ADSL)

Anyone can help?

cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragin:
Try going into USB Debugging mode. And then try it.

Alternatively, Try EasyTether from the market, works flawlessly for me. You may have to download additional drivers for your computer for it to work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croolis:
USB tethering works fine (using it right now) .. the problem is with wifi (mobile ap) mode .. the AP mode works fine, I can connect the laptop to it, and even ping the IP the phone assigns itself. Even DNS is working, but there's no access to anything outside of the mobile phone.

Release key signer

This is a tool I made for myself and figured I'd share it with everyone

what it does :

1 makes you your own set of release keys

2signs an apk with those keys

3zipaligns your apk

4signs zip files with your release keys

You need to have java in your system path if you don't know how then follow the guide in the second post.

What are release keys? release keys are what google and other corps. use to sign apks and update zips. It's also required to sign an apk with release keys to put them on the market.

How to use:

1:Download release key maker from here

2: unzip anywhere then put your apk (you must remove the meta-inf folder from the apk) into the unzipped folder

3: Double click the batch file and follow the steps

Part Two

This other upload is just an updated version it doesn't let you make the release keys it already has them and the keystore password in the batch file. It also signs zips with a test key because signing a zip with a release key seems to mess some things up.

Download part two here

simple right?

thanks go to:

Papa smurf (for spreading the info)

Darchstar ( I just like your roms)

Regawmod

JAguirre1234

Daneshm90

Tkirkton

To do:

hopefully add the ability to not have to enter your password when you sign an apk

HOW TO PUT JAVA IN YOUR SYSTEM PATH

First thing first go to here and download the java runtime (JRE) and then

the java development kit. Now install them both.

Now open up your start menu and right click COMPUTER and select properties

A window will open up that looks like this

select "advanced system settings"

[/IMG]

a new window will open up that looks like this

select "environment variables"

a little window will open like this in environment variables scroll down to path select it and click edit

another window will open like this

at the very end of it type this

;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\bin

click all the "ok" then I believe a reboot is necessary

now enjoy

[Android Software Development] mgarant:
Hello everyone,

I've been looking for a way to extract frames from a video for my Android App... The only things I found were related to the Java Media Framework, which I did not succeed to use since Eclipse doesn't seem to recognize the packages even though I've installed JMF on my computer.

What I need is to be able to get a video that is located on the SSD card of the phone (The video is recorded from the phone) and be able to separate all the frames of it, so I can make some processing out of it... Is there any other way than the JMF library? Or maybe can someone help me get JMF to work?

Thanks a lot in advance for any help at all!
[Android Software Development] sitlet:
You wont be able to do this from the phone. Transfer the video to the computer, then use a video editing program to save frames. You will probably have to save each frame individually, unless you can find software to do it automatically.
[Android Software Development] constellanation:
I really hope you do figure out how to do this, especially if you're doing it to make any sort of video editing app. And if you're making a video editor please put a rotate video option. I always film in portrait mode then realize unlike the camera there's no rotate.

I am using FroyoStone Sense V2 build - this build is using Android 2.2 with sense and it is brilliant on my HD2. I have set it up and am quite happy with it one thing I had trouble doing is disabling the vibrate on the dial pad - I have now found out how to diable the vibrate on the dial pad but it is a bit of a cheat way doing it.

I just downloaded NubDial from market place and it seems to sort the problem. It is free and has a nice simple black keyboard. It is fully intragrated into the address book and when you select the phone button it will prompt which dialer to use, simply select the nubdial and select the option to make as default!

If the vibrate is enabled in this dial pad simply click on windows key for settings and then go to Settings -> uncheck Enable haptic feedback! works a treet

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] justwonder:
In sense version, on phone dial pad screen, click windows button, then phone settings, it only have edit default message, edit message, save to contact, there is nothing about haptic feedback

In vanilla version, on phone dial pad screen, in phone tab, windows key won't work, call log, contacts, favorites tabs windows key works, but there still is nothing about haptic feedback,

Im just wondering what dial pad you have.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Stephen:
This may have been an android 2.1 version, I think you were able to disable it there. Use the NubDial it is a nice simple dial pad free to download from market place!

Hi

Can any one please help me? I have restored my HTC HD2 to factury default, since then I have not been able to access my bookmarks in Opera or IE.

Is there something Ive done or better still, something Ive have not done?

Many Thanks

Marcus Romer
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
more info please, do you mean they have gone? did you re sync your bookmarks? cos they were wiped when you factory reset your phone.

had you chosen to sync bookmarks through wmdc? had you been using opera 10? cos that doesn't sync the same as opera9.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcusromer:
I had to hard reset because I could not access my favorites using IE or Opera using both standard home screen or Sense. Once the phone was back to factory settings, the favorites tab still acting dead because when I click on it nothing happened. I then sync back to my PC and again could not access the favorites.

My only option to resolve this was to download from HTC website the exact ROM allready on the phone and then flashed it to which the favorites are now accessable. I have only just done that. However if you have an answer that would be good so if it did happen again I could resolve it without flashing.

I hope all that made sense....

It's called "Task Manager" and it's already on your phone, unless you are running a weird custom.

Some custom ROMs include the "Touch-X" solution or something similar to make it easy to get to Task Manager at all times. You should be able to find that somewhere in this thread.

It's probable. On Ubuntu Brainstorm they do the same thing.. You should report his posts.. In fact, if I had my way, signatures couldn't contain URL's, because at present, one can post 3000 posts, get their account hacked, and the hacker could change your signature to link to a firefox exploit.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Despite having one, I hate signatures, especially ones with huge graphics and multiple lines of text. IF you're signature is longer than your post, your signature is probably too long.

The only thing more annoying than bad signatures are the "posted from my {insert name of phone} via Tapatalk/XDA" that's included as part of the message text.

Most forums I turn off signatures. If this is an option here, I missed it in the forum settings. Only drawback is I actually donate to some of the devs who have links in their signature, not sure how to find them otherwise, perhaps a link in their profile page.

Anyways, more on topic, that's an interesting way to spam, I hadn't noticed, but I have noticed a lot of new posts where the question has been discussed at length in other threads - I always just chalked it up to people not searching before posting.
