I have a feeling mines locked, Ive never used the buttons to successfully get into download mode, just adb reboot download

EDIT: Tried the posts suggestions, problem is second I plug in the USB and the battery pops up it goes right to recovery. Even if im holding the buttons before hand.
[Vibrant Android Development] zephiK:
x_x don't know what to tell you then. With locked hardware, you have to be really careful because if something goes wrong you cant manually get back in there. Do you have Clockwork Recovery? try restoring to a previous nandroid backup.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I was working with that a bit, but it just kept getting to datadata and being unable to wipe or flash to it due to the odin botch. I tried wiping it clean and it just wouldnt let me do that to reflash.

So now im stuck at the samsung recovery screen without the ability to get into clockwork or flash lol

This smells like 130 bucks for a new phone I think... brick number two >.>
[Vibrant Android Development] zephiK:
Why did you change update.zip? Update.zip should always lead to Clockwork :|
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
I didnt! But when I was formatting and it failed to reapply the nandroid completely cause of the section it couldnt mount, now when I hit reinstall packages it just reboots. Same with shell, it just yells at me and tells me to die in a fire.
[Vibrant Android Development] byt3b0mb:
if you didnt figure this out, the way to fix it is to first flash WITH ODIN the original JVD firmware and check repartition, then flash the new one IN ODIN without the repartition box checked.

first update includes the dbdata that the phone is looking for.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Yeah, I figured it out now, but Odin is seriously the devil if your phone doesnt have the hardware buttons enabled.
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
Now heres a question, if I can still get into stock recovery... is there a way to like, you know, recover using the stock system? lol
[Vibrant Android Development] Viralblack:
BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS that Tmo is letting me warranty out my phone for free, shipping me a new one, and gave me a loner while I wait.

TMo for the win.
[Vibrant Android Development] red96turbols:
lol looks like you and I are in the same boat man. Hardware lock FTMFL. I have never been able to get into download mode, or recovery mode with the hardware keys, only with adb reboot recovery/download and terminal emulator app with SU privs. I wish there was a jumper we could reset to unlock it haha that'd be the s*# son. Good old pentium 133 in the palm of the hands, but no :(. Atleast they are taking care of the people who don't do things properly.
[Vibrant Android Development] almyz125:
I did the same thing and ended up with the same problem, but i was able to get in into download mode. When i would plug it in it would try to boot into recovery after the battery screen i would use the keys to make it boot to download mode instead of recovery, it was a *****, but i got it, though idk if there is another way for people with locked down phones.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enomele:
So I'm wondering how many people out there have had issues with the external speaker? This is my second inc that the speaker has blown on. Is this a normal issue? I don't normally use my phone to play music unless it has a aux cable or headphones in.

Kinda lame considering I finally decides to s-off a few weeks ago. Finally got everything set up the way I like it and of course now I have to revert everything back to stock. I don't think it would get past Verizon if the bootsplash has a Android pissing on a Apple :P

Hey,

That's a great and simple design, are you planning to bring it life are have you already tried it. That would work as a real simple accessory.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] A10Loogie:
Anyone have the APK for the 9/11/2010 Swype update for those of us who were not lucky enough to get in on the official beta?

Thanks! It will be really hard going without Swype!

Version number ??

1.61 floating around already

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cadbomb:
Umm... I'm a beta user, but I never got the update for the new version... When I tried to download it again, it only gives me the same version I already had. Apparently I missed something?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] illogic6:
Are you using an old version of the installer? That might be the problem.

I just downloaded the installer and Swype and got version 2.4.44.10912
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Darkne0:
So 2.4.44.10912 is the newest version?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] m4rk0358:
I'm getting an error message when using the updated version. It says:

And it isn;t working appropriately for me. Anyone else having this issue?

EDIT: Was able to fix this by following the steps here
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Igotsanevo4g:
Doesnt even work...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Zeleran:
Yeah, I can confirm 2.4.44.10912 is the latest version. Just downloaded the new SwypeInstaller and reinstalled Swype. Seems like they've changed its looks yet again from the 1.61 version. Though the changes this time are very subtle.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Testrunner:
I've been running 1.61 and would love to try out 2.4.44.10912. Since I am an unofficial beta tester, can someone PM me with a way to get the newest version.

I'd appreciate it.

thanks!

Could someone who got it through the installer post the apk?

This is only for beta testers right? Is there a way us mortals can get an apk to try it out?

I can't get past this error. What did you do to get past it? I'm not an official tester and don't have the swype installer.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moe29:
So I got a new G1 ( after I bricked my old one :( )

Came with 1.6

downgraded, rooted, installed radion, danger, CM6

booting now, I get cyanogen waving android and spinning circle, but it's been doing this for over 30 min now

Tried rebooting, taking the battery out and powering again, same thing

Any idea what's causing it ? a fix ?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toonarme:
This happened to me, so..

Restore your backup so it's back to what it was (You did a backup?)

Install Amon RA 1.7, do a nandroid, then do a factory reset wipe thingy, then a Dalvik cache wipe, then flash CM6 and Google Apps (The tiny one) and then bobs your aunties live in lover.

I didn't have any apps but there's a thread on CM's forum about how to get them back which I'm gonna try tonight. It's cos of the way that FroYo handles the AppsToSD thing, apparently its FroYoToFAT now..

HTH...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nonnoko:
Did you partition your SD Card?

I remember posting a reply to this thread but can't see it now

a wipe, re-flashing CM6 and installing google apps got it working

Thanks for replying anyways
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeco:
How does the video calling on the Galaxy S phones work? I mean, for example, who exactly can I video call? Is it restricted to other galaxy S phones, or does it operate off of a certain protocol across a line of devices? If there is a certain protocol, what is it called, who/what entity designed it, and what devices does it apply to? Whether that be a certain line of phones, or all devices that are GSM, or something like that, I don't know.

For reference My device is a Galaxy I-9000m on Bell mobility in Canada, Though I doubt that would affect much.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
any body else with a phone capable of video calling will work (HTC/Nokia/Samsung and very few LG models)

when you call press the green button to the right side of the screen

instead of the left side

then it will enable 3G / H for video calling
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigdave196:
Galaxy S video calling works over 3G using UMTS, so if the phone and network you're calling supports UMTS then you should be able to call them using video
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeco:
Ok, So basically video calling is in the specifications for UMTS. That makes sense, Just the answer I was looking for, thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Super Galaxy S:
Does the Video Call cost more money than the Calls?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] =Oberon=:
Video calling will cost more than voice calls yes.

The cost is dependant on your network provider so check and see how much your network charges.

Ofcourse it may not be that big a deal either depending on what sort of phone plan you're on.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gulmat:
I know that for bell you have to pay 5$ a month for the video call feature.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] =Oberon=:
Really? So thats on top of the video call rate then?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gulmat:
From what i can understand it's 5 buck a month + whatever the number of minute you use like a regular call
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gulmat:
So i've checked on the facebook page of the bell video call feature and for the facebook to phone video calls it doesnt use data and neither airtime from your plan, but i still don't know for phone to phone video call
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kewjoe:
So even with a data plan, you still need to pay $5 to enable video calling? That's silly. I'm with bell too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] 3rdcoast:
It could be worse, the U.S. carriers will charge $20-$30/mth for things like tethering (on top of the data used that you already pay for) so I wouldn't be surprised if they charged special for video calls. I'm going to try this on a SIP call but it sounds like the video function is limited to 3G but is worth a try. And it might not be compatible with the SIP video I've had for years.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
Bell is just a rip off

if you have a unlimited data plan or 6GB data plan, you can make as many video call as you want

the $5 charge extra is just an extra $5 for them, you are still using your $45 data plan, not like you get any extra data with the $5 extra you pay them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] groaner:
has anyone tried Fring? I understand you can do voicechat using fring and not pay the $5 a month. If this is the case it may allow for cross platform too, Androd ->iphone, as much as such a intermingling makes me cringe...ew.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] groaner:
doublepost
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you don't need to pay the $5 if you already have a data plan

yes fring works

fring is a voice over ip + video

which means you still needs a data plan

which also means having a data plan already voids the need to pay the $5 because the video call uses 3G / H data anyways

which means Bell is cheating people of an extra $5 that is not necessary
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gulmat:
i wouldn't say that bell is cheating people just for an extra $5. Since that $5 make the video call unlimited, so it doesnt use a single bit of our precious data plan. For someone like me with a 500mb data plan, it's pretty fun.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wang1chung:
i have trouble with fring...........the audio is always very very poor. i've even tried it with both phones on a wifi connection to see if it would help, but it's the same..........video is ok though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] job:
Fring doesn't work so well. I tried it and the camera that uses it is the normal camera on the back of the phone, so you cannot see your phone and be seen. Also, the voice doesn't work, I can ear the other person but he/she cannot listen me.besides that it messed up my volumes.i had to soft reset the phone.that I tried with jm5, don't know if its different with other roms.

Sent from my... you know!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] brunes:
The 5$ charge is to do video calls using the callers phone number. Its a cross phone GSM stabdard thing and is pretty different than fring; though you are right that it does use your data.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtoad:
Is there something I am missing? I am on Bell also, have a 3 gig data plan, but everytime I try video calling it says unable to make video call. (I actually start to see my own face on the screen before I get the message) Does it work from phone to phone or just stupid Facebook?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] maxomus:
Have you tried sipdroid, they support video chat now & come to think of it that may be an easy solution for phone to pc video chat if you have a sip setup on your pc, counterpath has some sip phones that do video on the pc, well something for me to play with when I get home...

Also, I'm using an evo & have no issues with fring for video chat, phone to phone, qik is the other option for video calls, it seems a bit more polished then fring to me.

I just read a post on phandroid that implied the new mytouch hd would be able to do phone to pc video calls through yahoo, so that may be something to keep an eye on...

The sip set up may be the way to go atm though, I guess ill find out later

i think that perticular $5 service is only for facebook. I'll go link hunting.

Bell page

http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpWls_VideoCalling.page?selectedtab=1

Seems to be both facebook or to another bell phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
yeah

Sipdroid

http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.sipdroid.sipua

seems to be a better solution than Fring
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xtoad:
Thanks for this!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] maxomus:
From looking into sipdroid video calling on there google code site, it appears to be more of video streaming, plus you have to have a premium pbxes account, if that's the case its not actual video calling a and you can accomplish the same thing with qik for free...

I still think sip may be the way to go, maybe it's time dust off the sdk,

or just wait & see what comes about with this yahoo stuff, I'm suprised google hasn't integrated phone to pc chat into gtalk or something yet, atm were kinda limited as far as video calls go, seeing as how there is only a handful of front camera phones.

Sent from my phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miki4242:
Their wording is not too clear (or an understated plug for pbxes' premium service). The premium stuff is only needed if you want to send video to people who cannot receive video right on their sip client, they can browse to a special webpage on pbxes to watch just the video part.

Sipdroid pure, real video calling supposedly works between any two sip devices with video capability, no need even to setup pbxes, just a provider that does the protocols right.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] maxomus:
Gotcha, makes sense, I had gizmo setup on sipdroid & sipgate on the pc, I don't think gizmo supports video then, as I have been able to make video calls through my bria soft phone setup up through sipgate without issue in the past...

Best way is for an ebay customer to look at who purchased a copy, contact them through ebay contact email, let them know they were conned and ask if they will give you sellers name, address and/or email, then add comments to ebay forum.
