Lol,

Turn off gps, bluetooth, wifi,

Turn down screen brightness,

Turn off haptic selection, audiable tones.

Tirn off anamation and 3g data.

When not useing the phone go ahead and power it down.

Turn off vibrate with ringer and enable silent mode.

Is that what you had to do?

Btw i know that from 9MM TO NOW 12MM IS NOT UGLY.

You make me sick. And your hijacking my post

Please do not put me down because my phone is a bit thicker but last double the time it used to. And thats with the above features turn to max
[Vibrant Accessories] =Oberon=:
;) Dont worry about the complainers fnakfhe ;).

I bought a 3000mah battery with back plate. (My posts on this version are here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8135991&postcount=49 )

But its way cheaper than the Mugen one.

I do admit,in the pics its not exactly 'pretty' being fatter but hey,for that cheap price (about AUD $25!) I cant complain. (I coudnt justify spending USD$99 on the Mugen one)

So yeah.I just had to try it out. Anyway,Im still waiting for it to arrive.

(I did contact the seller and he said it was resent on the 14th so Ill have to wait a it more)
[Vibrant Accessories] fnakfhe:
I ordered that one too. He refunded me cuz there was some technical difficalties with the battery. Then a week later he emailes me back saying the priblem is now fixed.

So i did order it again.

The idea is to never have to charge my phone but to just charge the batterys useing a desktop battery charger from ebay. It was only eight dollers.

I did not get the second ebay battery and charger yet. Ill keep you posted
[Vibrant Accessories] =Oberon=:
So you'll have the 3200mah mugen one and the 3000mah one?

Wow,'power overload :D'

As for the desktop charger.I got one of those wall chargers.Well actually a package,came with the wall charger.2 OEM 1500mah batteries,USB Cable and he also threw in 3 screen protectors.(Came today in the mail)

Post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8181516&postcount=139

Plan to use the wall charger for the 3000mah battery too.(when I get it).
[Vibrant Accessories] Mouahmong:
LOL!! I love it. I agree with you. What's the point in having a smartphone with all these cool features if you have to turn them off. I personally couldn't afford the mugen one, and because I couldn't find a phone cover for the added thickness (if I purchased the 3000 mah off ebay) I opted for 3 additional OEM batteries with a desk charger.
[Vibrant Accessories] KeyzerSuze:
I have just installed tasker - and it switches these things on and off for me, when I need them - I think thats a good idea save battery and have a small battery.

But, I would consider getting a bigger battery if I needed it to do all my stuff I do in a day.

currently have a lifetron 5200maH battery just in case
[Vibrant Accessories] All~G1:
Just wondering how long these batteries are lasting you? What's your average usage? Are you guys power users? Are you using it for business & play (ie: browsing, phone calls, gaming.. )?

The stock battery is giving me about 19hrs, give or take, with moderate to heavy display usage (damn word feud and xda apps lol). Using the hybrid rom with brightness set low is the only tweak that I had to shut off. Running a black BG, but have 6 widgets on my desktops.

If your reports are good I might actually look into getting something with higher capacity.
[Vibrant Accessories] fnakfhe:

Extended battery, with battery cover, 14.99, but says i9000, will it fit galaxy s

Hey, so here is a battery for the Galaxy S i9000, thought maybe it would fit the vibrant

http://cgi.ebay.com/3000mAh-Extende...789421?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5adbfc1ced

edit:

it says won't fit the vibrant if you scroll all the way down :(

ps, why does it say fits only unlocked i9000, what does being unlocked have anything to do with the physical body?
[Vibrant Accessories] fnakfhe:
I noticed that too.

there are 2 diffrent sellers i ordered from. I will keep you posted on this.

Total i will have three extended batteeies.

3200

3000

3000

I also got a desktop charger so i dont have to plug the phone in
[Vibrant Accessories] SamsungVibrant:
can you provide the links where you purchased from, how do the batteries work so far, does the cover fit?
[Vibrant Accessories] xplanowestx:
I personally have all features maxed out and use it on and off all day at work and my battery life seems just fine, i usually don't have to charge it from about 7am to eh 11pm @ night? fair usage on talk time and possibly taking a few breaks through out the day to play a couple games :)
[Vibrant Accessories] fnakfhe:
the update i posted in my OP is for the 3200mah batt. i got it from:

http://mugenpoweronline.com/product_info.php?products_id=790

the cover for that one is **** quality. nothing like orignal. but i dont care about looks at this point i just need more power.

and i ordered one 3000mah from:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390237789421#ht_500wt_674

its still not here yet, i dont know if the case will fit, but if worse comes to worse i will just use the back cover case from the $99 battery and use it with the 3000mah one.

also this is the other one i ordered:

[Vibrant Accessories] hydrogenman:
I bought an extended battery for certain occasions where conserving power isn't an option...mainly vacations, etc

a full day of the screen on, looking through itineraries (and line apps), and snapping photos really drains a battery at Disney World, and it's not like you can really recharge.

Got my 3000mah battery for my Galaxy S today.

Case available for vibrant extended battery

There is a seller on eBay (moretalktime) who sells custom TPU cases for a lot of phones including the vibrant with the extended battery.
[Vibrant Accessories] fitterdave:
I am getting one and will let you people know how it works.
[Vibrant Accessories] fitterdave:
Okay since I am still a newbie I cannot post pictures or links...... I understand.

PM me and I will e-mail pics of the extended battery case from moretalktime (e-bay or dot com); on the phone, off the phone, ect.

This is a

case

, not a cover for extended batteries lets keep that clear.

I am happy to say it is molded well, and fits my phone nicely, since it comes over the edges onto the front about 1/4" it is a little bit of a pain to wrestle the phone into the case but that is fone because I want a snug fit. The cut outs for the buttons are generous and well placed with the buttons centered in the cut outs not off to one side like many cases I have used in the past. The color is a dull flat -black, with only a small recessed company name on the back twords the bottom.

All in all nice work at a nice price, my hats off to the vendor.

I am purchasing an additional case for my little sister (who has the same phone and set up) who is much more of a "casual user" and is currently using a modified Trident Case (Cyclops model) that I cut out the back for her extended battery cover.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesc011:
Hey guys,

Just drained my battery. Charged it for 20 minutes to 15%. Rebooted phone. Battery is now at 51%.

This happens regularly on the two captivates i've had. what's going on?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesc011:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFauteux:
I had that issue yesterday. Just reboot the phone and it will show correctly again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andoh:
I've noticed similar batter issues as well. I suspect the problem is on Sammies end though. Often I will notice the battery at 75-50% but if I go into settings -> status -> battery, I will get a much lower %.

Hopefully the issue will be resolved when they decide to release froyo to us.
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
So, just a few hours ago I decided to install ADWLauncher, then I noticed my phone was acting VERY sluggish no matter what I did;uninstall ADW, restart, wipe cache, dalvik, and now my very last attempt is nand restore...but I'm getting the error "Error: run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb" I'm not familiar with adb, so bear with me.

If it's any help, I'm on Virus ROM with Carbon theme.

I've had no prior problems like this or at all.

I know how to use a computer and do commands, but I'll need some guidance with adb, etc.

--------- I tried posting in Q&A but no replies thus far and I'm freakin' out because I really need my phone.
[EVO 4G General] apristel:
Try charging your battery for awhile...
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
I was hoping that would be the solution, but I popped in my fully charged battery and keep getting boot loops too, and still won't restore my backups... :(
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
We wipe the system and instead of restoring the NAND backup just load up a new ROM. You can restore after you get it working.

Try that.
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
Wiping the system as in wiping data/factory reset, wiping cache, wiping dalvik?
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
Sweet Jesus, I fixed it! I did what you suggested although I tried that earlier and it didn't work. Thanks a lot guys.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
I was trying to help you help yourself. The third topic I looked at listed how to do it from adb and I even checked it with my phone to make sure it works. You didn't say you had tried anything and it wasn't working, you just asked how to do it. Maybe if you had taken a little more time explaining exactly what your problem was I would've been able to have been of better assistance, or someone else could have. The negativity in your last post will turn people off from trying to help by the way, maybe something to keep in mind when your asking for voluntary aid.

Howdy,

Reckon it's been a while since I posted something nice up but I reckon I'll give up some goodies....

I have for yalls pleasure the DG27 to D107 update directly from Sprint, got it on my phone a few minutes ago and pulled it off.

ALSO, I pulled some of the standalone goodies out of it for yalls pleasure as well. These include the media hub apk, and the included qik.apk.

Media Hub:

http://www.droidbin.com/index.php/files/get/HRIhXjP2UZ/mediahubv102-epic4g.apk

Qik:

http://www.droidbin.com/index.php/files/get/p7oQLsoZmp/qik.apk

DG27 to D107 Update (Original non-modified-Signed):

http://www.droidbin.com/index.php/files/get/iv_p2mYBQH/cec94babb124.update-dg27-to-di07.zip

So I through together an update.zip that works on any ODEXED Stock ROM Basically it throws the needed files into system/app and then performs the checks...this is for those with ClockWork Recovery. Be aware that this method requires the stock kernel as well.

Please make sure you do a backup before using this

Update.zip (for clockwork recovery and includes all the listed apps below)

http://www.droidbin.com/index.php/files/get/CynNhuAMDp/update.zip

Download this to get these back:

[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:

[Epic 4G Android Development] raiderep:
So we can flash this .zip in clockwork recovery and get the whole update?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
meh I cant guarantee that will work. My bet is that you will get a signature error...If someone takes this and signs it with the test keys then it may work...depending on what kind of checks it does....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jimmyz:
why cant you flash with the stock recovery if it is signed?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
Looks like it does a system integrity check and if it fails the checks, any of them, then it wont update your phone...for instance, I tried to install the new update but it fails because I have the 3.0 TouchWhiz launcher
[Epic 4G Android Development] raiderep:
I am pretty sure the clockwork recovery that noobnl got working has an option to bypass checks or signing but not sure if it actually works. TW 3.0? Gimme some lub here ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jimmyz:
thanks for the file- I just renamed it "update.zip", placed it on the root of the SD card and used the stock recovery.

I did this after I had gone back to the completely original stock using odin. Tested using mediahub which now loads- under build # I see D107 now

how do u get to stock recovery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
Kapow, here is an update script that runs no checks what-so-ever

http://pastebin.com/04EwkdJG

But you need to know whats different on your system because if they try to patch something on your system thats different then what they are suspecting then baaaaad things can happen.

Honestly it wouldnt be hard to make a working update for root users from this....
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
What do we do with this again? Or how can we apply it Stericson? Thanks.. I'm so used to HTC I am getting the hang of this new way.. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jimmyz:
assuming you dont have a custom recovery loaded just turn off the phone completely and then power on while holding down volume down and camera button.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
Basically to make this work for everyone...simply have someone apply the stock update.zip, then get the patched files from their phone and make a update.zip signed with test keys to give you the patched files...

or, revert to nearly stock, meaning using all the exact files they are using and just apply this update.zip after signing it with the test keys...
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Jimmyz I totaly forgot about this.. This is tech the other "official" way to update the device. As this is what ti does after the download to cache. I am liking the ease of one clicks and etc with Samsung.. This could be better than HTC's click and flash.. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Thanks, which keys are used during stock recovery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jimmyz:
Hah- Im such a noob I dont know! How would I find out?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
he didnt use any keys, the update.zip he used was signed by Sprint
[Epic 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
ha...not noob by the way...but any ways...i got it figured out!
[Epic 4G Android Development] raiderep:
to

I can confirm this too except naming it 'update.zip' failed but just plain 'update' worked fine as it is already a zip file. DI07 shows in about phone.

Thanx for the up stericson :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
So does it rob root from yall?
[Epic 4G Android Development] krazyflipj:
if anyone is wondering, to move cursor in stock recovery is volume buttons. Home touch button in front is enter.

What was the abort reason? I just flashed it (Had to put TouchWiz30Launcher.apk and .odex back) and my root persisted after the update!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
I had to push a few stock apps back onto the phone and I was able to update. You just need to be running stock kernel. Rooting won't break the update (I kept root the entire time).

edit: My GPS kicks ass now. 9 sats indoor in a 2-story house! The lock was super quick, too.

What Sprint apps need to be on the phone for the Update to go through?

Sprint Media Hub

Any others? I don't have any of the Sprint apps on my phone currently, so once I get those back, i'ma throw the stock kernal back on.

*FacePalm*

I removed quite a few of those apps. Email, majority of the Samsung widget apps, all of the Sprint apps.

Hmm is it likely the update will be altered to install without all the apps listed above?

Thinking I might have to completely restore the phone. X_X
[Epic 4G Android Development] Stericson:
See first post for what you need to get back and a link to those files :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
This is giving me too much headache!

Went through, one by one and added all of apps I was missing back into the System/app folder.

Made sure EVERYTHING i removed was back in the system.

Tried to apply the update.zip through stock recovery.

assert failed: apply_patch_check("system/app/Email.apk", then a bunch of numbers)
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)

Went and made sure that Email.apk was in the System/app file. Indeed it is, and even went and made sure the app was working, which it opened correctly. Also the Email.odex is in the system.......

**EDIT** I went and removed Email.apk and Email.odex from system/app, went back and RE-replaced Email.apk, and Email.odex, and tried to flash the update.zip again. Got the same error. I don't think there is anything wrong with those apk and odex files or the Email app wouldn't function correctly would it?

****EDIT****

Turns out that WAS the problem.

There is no problem with those apk or odex files. But when pushing them to my Epic, i didn't capitalize the E in Email, and it wouldn't register. *facepalm*

Trying to mess with ADB in the middle of night is bad because you over look the SMALLEST details.

I successfully got the update to go through! Still rooted, and running D107!!! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
Well, the easiest thing to do to avoid screwing up the filenames is to just copy to the folder name.

busybox cp /sdcard/Email.apk /system/app/

That way you won't screw up the filename :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
Oh i did:

busybox cp /sdcard/Email.apk /system/app/Email.apk

Didn't know I could omit the last part.....

Can I RE-remove all these apps now that I'm updated? -____-;;; I would hate to have to do this every single update!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
You can remove them, but the next update will require you to add them again, at least until someone posts custom updates that don't check for this stuff.
[Epic 4G Android Development] suarezl2:
Do I just transfer the apks to the SD card and install or do I have to push the files?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
Transfer to the sd card, then copy them to /system/app. You can't directly push to the system folder.

Copy to your sd card, then open a command prompt and do

adb shell
su
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/file.apk /system/app

If you have a lot of APKs to copy,

busybox cp /sdcard/*.apk /system/app

replace .apk with .odex if you have a lot of those to copy as well.

Obviously, you need busybox installed for this to work. You can get that from the market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780759

What i found works best:

Move the apk/odex files to SDcard.

Open CMD and do adb shell and mount.
