There must be something funky with your server configuration then or it's a bug that i'm not aware of in the version of the rom you are using. Are you using the latest energy 21xxx rom or the aug28 version?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] innovator8:
I am running energy august 28 21914 version. I have been using energy roms since my tp2 days but have never tried to do this. i am just basicly just trying to get 20 hours worth.of battery life out of this phone.

thank you

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilco:
Try to configure your device with a very small period of "peak time" and thus almost all day "off peak"

That way at least the period of synching "when they arrive" will be reduced to a minimum.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Speedn:
try turning off push mail in settings, should help ya I think.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] innovator8:
Thanks, I just tried that too, (I have previously been using native WM activesync to set this) and I get the same results. I set it to check once an hour both peak and non peak and after a soft reset, it does back to as it arrives.

If I just disable push via the comm manager, the settings get set to manually check.

Thank you for your input.

I am still stuck with this.

EMaiL them and tell them to make an otterbox, preferably a defender case, for us!!!

http://www.otterbox.com/samsung-cases/

They are making one for the captivate!
[Epic 4G General] mekeke:
It might be a tad difficult making a case like that for a phone with a slide out keyboard. Though it would be nice.
[Epic 4G General] hydralisk:
Looks like they made one for a moment. What is so special about these cases?
[Epic 4G General] mekeke:
My friend has an otterbox for her iPhone, and from what I have seen, they are very durable. The thing had it's own screen protector built in.
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
They also made one for the Moto Droid and Palm Pre, and quite a few other slider phones.

They most likely will make a Commuter case for the Epic, which more or less is a 2 piece snap on case, but with rubber lining.

OtterBox is probably the best cases I've ever used on phones. Seidio Active cases and CaseMate tough cases are similar in build with the silicone inner skin, and hard plastic outer shell, but Otterbox usually fit much more precisely and in general look better. :)

**EDIT**

Even though I'm pretty sure I've emailed Otterbox about the Epic already, I sent them another email asking nicely to make some cases for the Epic! :)

We need more quality cases other than Seidio for our epics!
[Epic 4G General] Spoons203:
I had one of these cases for my Hero and I loved it!! I actually threw my Hero out of frustration a few times and nothing happened to the Hero. I threw it out a car window into some woods and the thing only had a bubble on the screen protector but nothing on the screen.

Either way I emailed them a couple days ago and this is the response I got:

Update for Case #195446 - "Samsung Epic"

We do not have any information if we will be making a case for that device at this time. Generally it takes approximately 2-4 months for a case to developed once a device is released to the public. Customer Service finds out about new case releases the moment they are posted to the website. It is best to keep an eye on our website, as it will have the most up to date information on our products and new cases.

Thank you,

Zach Vander Meeden

Note that the "case" they refer to is the "case number" they gave my email not a model number for a case for the epic.

And last time I checked the Evo still had a case in development so I wont hold my breath for the Epic case.
[Epic 4G General] ldrn:
They recently released the Evo cases -- so while I very well may get an OtterBox in a few months, alas, it does not look good for the nearer future. :(
[Epic 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
Do not fret!! We will have them soon enough!

Anyone have issues with custom ringtones after rooting?

I had a custom ringtone in the mpga format that was working fine before I rooted. After rooting my phone, applying the lag fix, applying the gps fix, and installing ADW launcher, I can no longer use it as a ringtone.

I can navigate to the file in Astro, but the option to set it as a ringtone is greyed out. Anyone experience this?

Oh, I also clicked on "Fix Permissions" in Rom Manager and it went through the process (I figured it would have a prompt or something), don't know if this has caused it or not, is there a way to reverse whatever it did?

Thanks in advance! I am in Love with XDA and am devouring all the info I can!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragoth12:
I have since tried putting the file in a folder named ringtones in my root sdcard directory and have had no luck getting the file recognized.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcpremutico:
I make custom .mp3 ringtones on my laptop then transfer them over to the phone thru Windows Explorer.

1. Connect your phone to the PC via USB

2. On your phone, it should show that USB is connected on the drop down menu...click on it and mount

3. Now open My Computer on your PC and double click to open your internal sdcard (phone memory)

4. There should be a folder called "media." Double click to open that folder and then then double click the folder called "audio"

5. Create a new folder called "ringtones" (for custom ringtones) and another new folder called "notifications" (for custom message tones)

6. Now drag your audio files into the corresponding folders and you should be able to choose your custom ringtones/message tones through the phone settings

There are also apps in the market that enable you to create your own ringtones on the phone using the music in your library (Ringdroid)

Hope this helps :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragoth12:
Thank you! That fixed my issue. I just needed to have the ringtone folder in the right directory. Kinda strange it didn't make me do that before the rooting though. Nonetheless, thank you very much for your help!

I have a different boot animation on my phone and I'm not sure hot to apply it I don't have a pc so I want to do this straight through the phone I have sufb and astro file and the new boot animation shows up but I don't know where to put it any body know what I can do?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderdroid:
You want root explorer. First you want to extract the zip file that contains the boot animation that you want, using astro file manager. Then go into root explorer, and replace /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg and /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg

That will replace the video. The bootup sound is /system/etc/PowerOn.wav

replace those files with the one from the zip.

The shutdown video is a handful of image files located in /system/media/video/shutdown

and the shutdown sound is /system/media/audio/ui/Shutdown_128.ogg

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doncamel:
i tried a different approach but it worked for me.

i used root explorer and deleted the .PNG files from

/system/media/video/shutdown

then, i used VirtualDub (free download, just google it) and opened a gif that i wanted to use as my shutdown animation

once in virtualdub, go to file, export, image sequence and change the name to

shutdown_

for the number of digits in select 1

then change output to .PNG

click ok.

Go to the folder that you exported it to and select 14 consecutive images that you want to use and change the file names in order to shutdown_1, shutdown_2 etc....

move these files to your external sd card.

Now go back into root explorer and find these files. Select all of them and move them to system/media/video/shutdown.

You are done. With this method you can use any .gif you want so long as it has only 14 frames. I'm sure there is a way you can use more than 14 frames but I haven't figured that out yet.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikewatt:
I followed all these steps.

1) I'm rooted

2) Have Root Explorer

When I go to paste my new .png files over the old ones, everything seems fine. But when I check the files, they are still the old ones.

Also when I try and delete some of them, they appear gone for a second, then re-appear.

I've tried changing permissions for the files / folders, which appears to work. But then when I look at the permissions again, they have been set back to the way they were before.

Any help appreciated.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtyhans:
so I had to reset my phone because of it crashing on an adroid.calander problem?

first what a pain.. I did absolutely nothing then all of a sudden the phone started doing reboot/media scanning and crashing. The only thing that worked was to go into recovery and delete all user data, then reinstall apps.

Second, now I have a re-installed phone with some of the applications working fine automatically, others I have to reinstall.

the big issue is I had the LAGFIX installed before all this happened. I now run the LAGFIX and it says "lagfix installed", when I try to remove the lag fix it says "lag fix not installed".

LagFix is definately not installed as the performance (and score) is back to original.

How do I tell the LAGFIX that LAGFIX is not installed?

I am rooted, have busybox, and sql editor installed.

ps.. if anyone can tell me how to stop the phone from randomlly turning off while your at it gets some serious props..

Hello guys,

I pretty much have the same problem, I'm actually using the official ROM but I find it a little limited (+ I start to find some flaws a bit annoying) and I'm looking for a (french) ROM that is as close as possible to the official one, but running WM 6.5.5 (from what I understood, there is no official ROM with WM 6.5.5 for our Topaz, am I right?)

I'm not looking for a customed Sense interface, just the regular one, and I don't need more apps than in the official release.

The one I tried that suits me best is netDrg's ROM 2.5l, but it's still a little buggy for me. Anything near that would be just perfect.

Stock ROM + Co0kie's Home Tab = Stable and Professional

I like Stock ROMs and dont wanted any thing which is modified...because these are actually Stable.

So I will suggest use Stock ROM + Co0kie's Home Tab. This makes any Windows Mobile (6.5.x) Complete and professional!

+ You can ADD:

1) .NET Compact FW 3.5

2) Co0kie's Home Tab (Currently using 1.8.5, will install 2.0 for sure after Release)

3) HTC_WiFi_onDemand

4) Office 2010

This will give you a stable and professional Windows Mobile.
