I would be interested in hearing more about this, we have been using ustream to stream our service. Also what do you have on the broadcast end? I am just using a webcam on a laptop, but would like something more.

Received my invite.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Schnitzel77:
invitation arrived today... :)

its a really nice tool....working pretty good right now.

it almost like visual basic...plus "visual" coding....its like playing with "LEGO".....but its "coding" :)

live preview on the screen rocks.

i hope google will add many, many more functions soon. :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] htc(hot-taco-cheese):
Yeah it needs a bit more. I finished all of the tuts already. I don't really want to build anything else.

I'm themeing right now.

Got my invite. Now if i could just remember my brilliant idea for an app!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] kungfuturkey:
Yay finally got mine today I've only done the first two tutorials and half of the third so far.pretty awesome what you can do though
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jaboswell:
Still waiting on mine...hopefully 1 of the 3 emails I have get it soon...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] networkmagician419:
I can confirm that you will want to try to sign in every once in a while... didn't ever get the invite email but was able top sign in and get to work... also the Makequiz/takequiz tutorials error out on my dinc.. running skyraider 3.2.. any body have similar problems?
[Android Themes] Award Tour:
Is there any way to install additional fonts on Android? I don't want to replace the system font, I just want to make them available for use on the web. Is it as simple as drag and dropping them into a folder?
[Android Themes] mitalbr:
Did u find anything dude ??

I am also looking something similar...!!!
[Android Themes] adry-kona:
With JRSoft ;)
[Android Themes] fachadick:
If you're still looking, check the link in my sig. :)

edit - nevermind, thought you were looking for something else. Deja vu. :)
[Captivate General] RanaGill:
check out the Engadget Article.

Everyone let us know how it went for you.

Did it install correctly?

Is your GPS performance any better?

How do you like the other features of the update?

Does your media scan actually run faster?
[Captivate General] iceman4357:
Let me help you here.... link to article:

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/22/samsung-captivate-gets-gps-fix-other-galaxy-s-versions-wait-pat/

I had to do the date forward trick to get it to download. It downloaded and installed 100% successful. My phone is stock as the day I bought it. Some people say they have seen "failed" install from being rooted, but it still installs.

Testing, and will report back.
[Captivate General] msinkovich:
Can you tell me how you did this?
[Captivate General] graceflanger:
Yeah, I got the failed update and now it won't power on at all.

If anyone knows what to do please let me know.
[Captivate General] skinien:
Just set your calendar one day ahead.
[Captivate General] Chief Beefalo:
I just want to know how this update would effect a rooted phone.... i am currently running SRE 1.3.1c
[Captivate General] iceman4357:
It seems like anyone with a rooted phone might get an error, but it still installs fine. First impressions is actually really good. The phone feels a little faster. The videos are smoother and so is the gallery. When I opened maps it found my location instantly instead of getting the %waiting for location" message. Accuracy was 1000 meters, but I didn't turn on the GPS.

Also the signal strength and internet speed seems much faster. And stronger for me
[Captivate General] yurkinator:
Just updated mine. Gps is a lot faster! I can even get a lock when indoors now.

I can no longer access the gps menu through the dialer though.
[Captivate General] C3P0LOL:
The OTA update now allows me to go into the three button recovery mode. I couldn't do this before.
[Captivate General] plasticdarlow:
Does anyone know if we have an unlocked Captivate on another carrier, will be be getting the update? If not, how does one go about getting it?
[Captivate General] hightech888:
Installed fine on my rooted phone gps seems snappy but I can't really test right now. Media scan still taking a while but the phone is less laggy while it's running.

So far so good considering I was ready to ditch this phone yesterday. Temporary rage reduction for me.
[Captivate General] back2honda:
Downloading now....
[Captivate General] rahlquist:
Dropped connection during d/l now I cant get it to d/l at all even after a rommanger restore.
[Captivate General] Postal76:
I manually checked for a software update on my rooted Captivate, and after downloading and rebooting, I got a message saying the update was not installed.
[Captivate General] pkley:
Mine isn't even showing an update available. I've set the date forward to tomorrow, the 24th, the 25th, 26th, 27th, none show an update available...grrrr...

Any link to the software other than OTA?
[Captivate General] back2honda:
Update not installed but baseband version changed to JH7. :confused:
[Captivate General] chupacabrachus:
I don't notice any difference on a factory-software phone. GPS still does not work indoors at all. I'll try in my vehicle later.
[Captivate General] savyfight3r:
Just tried the update

on my rooted/bloatware deleted phone got a message along the lines of "Update Not Completed. Your phone was not updated successfully." Didn't brick my phone though, thank god. Anyone else get this message?
[Captivate General] nahrah:
Same here, on the white screen after installing the update it got to 50% and failed. Check my firmware still says jf6 with 2.6.29 jetaek.lee@sep-11 #2 kernel
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
I just went to download it on my sister's phone since hers is still factory stock, unrooted, etc...

Nothing at all. Didn't even download the update. Now I can't check for another 24 hours.

GPS + other improvements for Samsung ATT Captivate are HERE!! Look for OTA notification from ATT today thru next few weeks! #GalaxyS ^Leah

Anyone actually get gps fixes through it?
[Captivate General] phr00t:
I found it on Samsung's Service Facebook page:

"Samsung Service The Samsung Captivate's GPS performance update is now available!!

Look for a notification from ATT & simply download the file to update your phone. This will be pushed OTA by ATT over the next few weeks starting today.

The update also improves other device functions, such as media scanning time, adds the full version of ...Quickoffice and addresses Microsoft Exchange 2003 policy support."

If this is just JH7, then the GPS is definitely not fixed. But, I will wait until I "officially" update to see. Hopefully someone who gets it can post it here really quick.
[Captivate General] keitht:
I updated and I can tell you that my GPS issue is 100% fixed.
[Captivate General] ScottyNuttz:
I got the OTA update, and my initial tests show that GPS is... better? But certainly not 'Fixed'. After turning off 'Use wireless networks' I tried using Google Naviagation, and whenever I was moving, the position marker would start lagging behind, and then catch up occasionally.

I did get a lock within 10 seconds though.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Mr.Sir:
Hey there!

I'm wondering if OpenGL games, like Quake III, can be ported just like they did for Android with Kwaak3.

Does WinPho7 support OpenGL ES in addition to DX9c?

Best Regards Mr.Sir (Gustaf)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Iridox:
I googled around and it appears that XNA will be the only choice besides silverlight for app/game development. So if you can somehow port an OpenGL came to XNA, then yes.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] tyrannus:
Nope. It's only what you will find in XNA. There are several samples people have posted for porting on xbox 360; same code will work on the phone with VERY little changes.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ei05035:
So, seriously guys, no native support? I mean, when i was working at NDrive they had everything written in C++ with interfaces for each device. I doubt that any sane company will rewrite its software completly just to compete in a niche...

Even in .NET CF you COULD do some PInvokes which kinda allowed you to attempt to run a managed version of OpenGL (.NET sucked and still sucks for serious game development, obviously) which was slow as hell, but at least it was there.

So please, native support!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] OndraSter:
That's why it is entitled with XNA;)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] umairhaque:
Yup Buddy but its gud because you have to code only one time and then you can able to convert it for using on other platforms..
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ei05035:
And by several platforms you say M$ based ones. I mean, most companies (i can give you the example of NDrive as I was there for a while) would rather code in C++ and create interfaces for specific platforms. No native code support kills it. I don't see companies renaming extensions to .cs, enabling unsafe code (pointers, etc) and giving it a good dose of whisfull thinking.

Oh and when I meant that XNA sucked for serious gaming i meant really. AAA games don't rely on that. They rely on GPU manufacters SDKs and on the good ol' DirectX SDK. This is if they don't have some housemade engine (like Crytek) similar to Shiva3D or Unity (but custom tailored).

I mean, seriously. In .NET CF 3.5, give it a go, try to natively rotate an image and resize it without manually processing the bitmap information to do so (and at the expense of CPU usage). I had to rely on DxSprites and OpenGL when I needed.

XNA is, as it was already mentioned, game-wise, a game-loop oriented tool with a few PInvokes to DirectX...
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] tyrannus:
If you are so gung-ho, you could write wrappers in C++, compile the DLL and pinvoke your calls.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ei05035:
Exactly! Honestly for me it is the way to go. It's not that i don't like C# or .NET, quite the contrary. I'm just sorry that they lack the portability some projects require. And for me, WP7 not having native code support is a real buzz kill. What do you think?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] xBanko:
It does have native code support but you need Microsoft's permission to get the SDK. I'm pretty sure game companies will have it if they want to make use of the GPU as much as possible.
[Fascinate General] chronster:
I'm not new to overclocking, but I AM new to Android, so when it comes to overclocking an Android phone, I'm as useless as the next guy.

I noticed people got the i9000 version as well as the Captivate version to overclock to 1.2Ghz, but I can't find anything on the Fascinate. One member mentioned in another thread they overclocked, but I don't see how.

So how do we overclock the Fascinate? If there's a guide out there, it should be a sticky here!
[Fascinate General] frostman89:
Need overclocked kernels to achieve that, and we don't have any as of yet.
[Fascinate General] dmasjz45:
Gotta wait for custom kernels to start rolling out, which will be soon
[Fascinate General] smilepak:
Man you guys are sick.

The phone is at 1Ghz right now. Almost Twice the speed the original Motorola Droid. And you want to overclock already.

What kind of things are you doing with your phone that need that kind of speed. ..
[Fascinate General] Irishpride:
Why would you not want to overclock your phone?

Sent From My Galaxy S
[Fascinate General] ksizzle9:
actually its been said(but not done yet) that these phones can easily overclock to 1.6ghz so its only a matter of time, this will eventually be one of the more popular galaxy s phones bc its on vzw which is prolly the largest network in the world if not very close. cant wait for this ****. i really dont know if vzw is that big but u would think it is
[Fascinate General] DigitalDementia:
Seriously? 1.6ghz? Where did these numbers come from just wondering? Not that I don't believe you just skeptical. If those facts are true that's freaking awesome!
[Fascinate General] ksizzle9:
u can go to the irc chat for the i9000(international SGS) Or prolly find it n xda under i9000 I know its been said it can be done but hasn't been yet. This isn't like the Snapdragon or Dx, D2 processors that are basically maxed out at 1ghz. I don't know any specifics bit I believe it. Hit the forums and chatrooms. If I'm wrong my bad. But I know its been said at some point that this processor is capable. If u ask or find it post back with any recent info.

they call me...kick ass

According to the comments this "fix" is just the JH7 Rom that apparently doesn't fix anything.

If that is true then I think we can forget about a real gps fix for the galaxy S.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyguy729:
I recently pull the framework apk out via adb and tried pushing back but permission denied. then i decided to restart the phone and the phone stuck at bootscreen.

Any idea how do i fix this? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cantIntoCode:
1. Put your phone into download mode(vol-down,home,power)

2. Start up Odin

3. Connect your phone

4. Download a firmware of your choice

5. Put in your pit,pda,phone and csc.

6. Flash away !

Obviously this procedure will put your phone back to stock firmware. If you can't find another way to make your phone boot this will surely do the trick.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flyguy729:
But do you know how to flash an update.zip using adb? Or do you know how to copy a file from my folder in my computer to android's system file? the cat command if im not mistaken.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
what PaulForde is saying will fix the problem

you are stuck, there is no way to fix it the way you are imagining it

there is a slider to select "best performance", "best battery" or between..

Does anyone know where is the corresponding registry key for that slider setting?

I ve searched a lot and haven't found anything.... Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p107r0:

BTW the key was (if anyone else cares)

HKLM - Comm - BCMSDDHD1 - Parms - PowerSaveMode

0 -> Best Performance

1 -> Best Batterry

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Rattor:
My wife recently got a Vibrant, and she hates the bottom 4 required buttons on her home screens (Phone/Contacts/Messaging/Apps). She does not text, and wants to get rid of the messaging button. Is rooting the phone and installing a custom theme the only way to do this?

Also, what is the "lag fix" supposed to fix? She hasn't complained much about anything, and I haven't messed with her phone enough to see any serious problems with it.

EDIT: Also, what does having a "hardware locked" phone mean, what does it prevent you from doing, and how can I figure out if my wife has a hardware locked phone?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
First off, I think if this is your wifes phone and you and she are unfamilar to modding its best to do as little as possible to get what you need. That said, if she hasn't complained about lag, don't worry about it. If you are interested, then lag is created because samsung uses a proprietary file system rfs which is a little slow. Lag fixes try to remedy this by either adding an ext2/3 partition, or totally replacing the file system with ext4. This last is for advanced users and I would not recommend.

Hardare locked refers to some devices that are unable to get to recovery or download mode by using the volume buttons and power button. There are threads to explain how to do it. Use them to see if your wifes is one.

As for the big ticket of your thread customizing your home screen, there are numerous launchers on the market. I like launcher pro, and adw launcher. Im pretty sure you dont even need to root to use them, there are free versions in the market. Good luck.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Rattor:
Thanks for your quick reply.

I am not new to modding. I have pretty seriously modded my Evo 4G (custom kernels, deodexed ROM, customized themes, etc...). It's just I am unfamiliar with the Vibrant and its root process, and I don't want to do anything to it until I know the ins and outs of messing around with it.

If I can mod her home screen without rooting, then that's probably as far as I'll go. However, I've told her to look over the themes here to see if she finds one she likes, and I'm fairly certain I need to root to install a custom theme if she decides there's one she likes.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
Ok then, most theming i've seen on the vibrant is for the status bar, and not the bottom. Most roms end up supplementing touchwiz launcher with something like launcher2 or adw launcher. You might want to take a look at eugene373's frankentwiz. Hes modified touchwiz so you can edit the bottom dock and app drawer. Or if you dont want to go that far he posted the default launcher in the dev section that you Adb push to system/app its literally the default launcher from the g1 days. Its what I use.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] henreeg:
Just use LauncerPro or ADW.

I got it for my girls Mytouch Slide. She doesn't need root. I doubt your wife needs the lagfix... the phone is fine just how it is for normal use.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Rattor:
Considering the most she uses it for is to play Sims and other games (stealing my phone when she wants to play Angry Birds), and for surfing the web, I think she'll be fine without root, just using a new launcher. She just really didn't like the fact that 1/4th of her bottom dock was taken up with a useless icon.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] renster721:
You don't need a new launcher to replace the sms icon at the bottom of the dock. Open the app drawer-> menu-> view type-> customizable grid-> menu-> edit ...

Then you can drag any other icon on the dock to replace the sms icon. Press the back button to confirm, then you can switch back to alphabetical grid.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
::egg on face:: I also learn something new every day.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] renster721:
Also, if you look around this forum you can find the Angry Birds apk and install it on your wifes vibrant.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Rattor:
Thanks for that tip. Although I think I will be getting her ADW Launcher anyways since it's much more customizable, and not as overloaded as TouchWiz. Plus I found a theme for ADW I think my wife will love.

Just as a follow on, is it normal for you to have to hit the soft buttons (menu, home, back, search) multiple times to get them to actually register? I've noticed that if they are not lit up, I have to hit them once or twice to get them to light up, and then again to do the action I was trying to do.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] renster721:
When I first got my vibrant I did, but I think it's because the touch sensors are very specific. As in, you have to hit the home button dead on for it to register. Once I got used to the button locations its not been a problem.

Btw, if you touch anywhere on the screen the buttons will light up ... Helpful when its really dark.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] vitalik228:
all you have to do is....

1.go into app drawer

2.press menu and select view type

3.then select customizable grid

4. then go into your app drawer again and select edit

5.then select and hold an app and drag it in dock where the msg app is

6.and that's it:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] All~G1:
completely agree with this. You've kinda be dead on or cover the majority of the button. Adw is a great choice. It's an awesome and absurdly customizable home alternative. Plus it's free :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Rattor:
Thanks for everyone's help. I ended up going with ADW and the iDroid theme (my wife adores the little android droid mascot). Very easy to setup and looks very nice.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NameLessThugZero:
Ok, so i attempted to manually retrieve the update released today, can I not do that yet(as in MUST it be pushed to my phone first)? Now i have to effing wait sub-24hrs for it again:mad: Admittedly i couldnt wait...this fone is nice minus the few issues it has and that we are all aware of.

Ive never had a chance to see the update experience on an Android fone, therefore as far as im concerned it did what it was supposed to...only it failed. the "No update was installed..." screen appeared after my fone was restarted and unlocked. I didnt take out the SIM, fone is rooted, start up media scaning is (more or less) disabled with an app i use, and i have the free lagfix from the market; the One Click thingy lol. Any Ideas anyone?:confused:
