I am too hoping to get my replacement Streak in next week.

Is it required to return the old streak to dell at all, do they charge if I won't.

Mine screen broken such that I cannot even hard reset it before sending it back to Dell.

On my brothers captivate when anything really light is displayed, I noticed that I can still see the numbers from the clock in the notification bar. This shows up on the ATT boot animation screen too.

Anybody else noticing this?

BTW: The AT&T store wouldn't do anything about it, they told him to call samsung and try to get it warrantied. If that doesn't work, he will have to pay $125 for an insurance claim to get a refurb.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a.n:
I think I understand what you mean. That's strange. I don't think there's anything you can do about that other than having Samsung look at it. Hopefully it will go away or something and you'll save a few bucks. If he hasn't had it long, Samsung should fix it for him without him having to pay for anything, unless they find that your brother caused it to happen. Just call them and ask about it.

Bringing this thread back because I also have burn in problems and didn't want to make a new thread.

Since I was using the early versions of NoLed, my phone used to sit at night plugged in, and get notifications. In the early version you couldn't time it out, so the phone would sit all night with the "battery fully charged" box in the middle of a black screen. I didn't think OLED screens would have problems, but its burned in.

Is there any thing you can do to work it out? (similar to the programs that can sometimes un-stick a pixel on an LCD monitor)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
Did you guys in the captivate thread find a resolution to the screen burn in? Or is it sadly permanent?

My notification bar is burnt in on my Vibrant, annoys the heck out of me.

Here is a thread I made in the vibrant forums.

Anyone else intrigued by this budget sub £100 handset? Rumored specs

Eclair 2.1

3.5 inch capacative OLED

800x480 res

It sounds almost worth buying even though it will feature heavy orange branding!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plaskut:
hi,

i've googled all over the place, but i can't seem to find a solution for my predicament, perhaps because it is probably quite silly.

i'm waiting for the froyo update for my SGS. here's the data from *#44336# :

PDA: I9000-JPJG8

Phone: I9000-JXJG2

CSC: I9000-JPJG9

I don't know what these mean at all, I just know that I'm currently running Eclair, and would like froyo as soon as it's out. My phone isn't 'with google'. It just has the android logo on the back. When I first got the phone it was without google market, so I used a code to change the CSC from XSS to XSG. I googled around to get this info.

Here's where my trouble begins. I want to know what my upgrade options are (I would like to keep the market), and whether I will be able to re-enable market if an update takes it away from me.

Thanks

PS: I think the XSS/XSG have something to do with the arabic language (i bought the phone in the UAE), but i still have no clue as to why one has market and the other doesnt.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajuki:
No need to be confused. Just keep up your ante for the release of official Froyo launch from Samsung, allegedly at the end of October now. When it comes out, you will be notified by KIES about the update.

If you think you can not wait and you have the guts to have an adventure, you can always flash unofficial FROYO but then you might have to put some extra effort to get the market back.

Try this, if you don't want to wait for the official release.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms93:
Today I tried to change ROM in my G1. With that I also wanted to change SPL and recovery. It was my first conact with flashing that phone. I flashed Samsung i7500 before, so I have some Android experience.

Recovery and SPL went OK. When I was flashing ROM, something has gone wrong, so I decided to restore nandroid backup I made before flashing new ROM. When I restored backup, system didn't load. It stops on "Android" text or on black screen. Recovery also got lost (I don't know how) - now I can see only picture with triangle and "!" sign.

First thought I have was to use fastboot to flash new recovery and have it working. But there is my problem - when I enter fastboot mode, PC doesn't see any new device. There is no difference in device manager when phone is connected or not. When I turn phone on normally (so system's stops loading on Android text), it's recognized by PC.

Have anybody had such problem? What should I do to restore recovery or flash working rom?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @xDeepS:
What ROM u trying to flash? Some ROMs need some base files. You can even install a new Recovry Image through Recovery Console. Thats what I did ;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1sanju:
OK, What SPL you have right now...

Once you flash new SPL, old nandroid might not work properly as the partition layout has been changed....

Let us know the SPL you have now, sometimes if the phone is not getting recognized..then you have some old driver installed, try to see if that's the issue...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms93:
I have installed haykuro SPL as I remember right.

I tried to update SDK and its USB drivers, but no result.

I remember also, that "USB debugging" wasn't on - maybe that's why phone in fastboot isn't recognized on PC?

To be clear: when I plug USB cable in fastboot mode, PC doesn't show that there is some new device. It acts like no device was connected to it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1sanju:
There are other new and safe method to achieve the same or more then what you are trying to achieve with Haykuro SPL...see here..Custom MTD

But anyhow you are stuck with it...when you say Phone is not getting recognized..try restarting the phone in fastboot mode while connected to PC...when you are pressing back button are you getting fastboot..

I am not a good person to suggest something on this...If I would have been in your place I would have flashed DREAMIMG.nbh file and would have started from start....but wait till somebody better will tell you how to recover the device....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms93:
G1sanju, I don't know what to say!

You saved my phone ;)

Flashing DREAMIMG.nbh helped, phone has booted :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms93:
OK, I have a new problem now.

Recovery is still not working - I have Android 1.0 in phone.

Fastboot is still not recognized by PC, so I can't flash it. I don't have root, so I can't flash recovery by terminal - is there any Android 1.0 root instruction?

Or maybe DREAIMG.nbh of 1.5 or 1.6 ROM?

EDIT:

Now everything works, I flashed recovery using telnet.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1sanju:
DREAMIMG.nbh is an default image for G1, so it remove root access and leave the phone with the stock image...now you have 1.x radio and stock SPL...flashing haykuro SPL right now can brick your phone....

unlocker.com has some good guide to get the root access if you are looking for it....

Do not flash the Haykuro SPL or DangerSPL......That's of no use now....also there are chances that it can brick your phone....

Use Safe SPL...1.33.2003 those are full engineering SPL with fastboot access....

use CustomMTD to get the increase size as mentioned in my post above...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms93:
I installed recovery via telnet, then changed radio, installed CustomMTD and ROM. All working fine.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1sanju:
Its great that you have used customMTD rather then Haykuro SPL...this is safe method....I just warned you because that's a very common way to brick the phone....flashing NBH and then installing SPL assuming you have the correct radio is a very common way of bricking the phone...

Also if you are playing with SPL and radio's then its advisable to erase the recovery first...then do the install from fastboot and then reinstall recovery...

[Captivate General] fiendiish:
I just spoke with the Android dept at AT&T who where I spoke to a gentleman named Jeremy Everson. After he informed me that I was the 6th caller he had had in the past 3 hours about the failing updates...he called Samsung on a 3-way conversation with me.

Here's what I found out. If you DO NOT HAVE GPS, EMAIL OR MMS PROBLEMS...THEN THE UPDATE MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE. THIS IS ATT AND SAMSUNGS RESPONSIBILITY AND THEY ARE GOING TO FIX IT.

AT&T IS WORKING DILIGENTLY WITH SAMSUNG AND MR. EVERSON INFORMED ME THAT THEY ARE FRUSTRATED AT THE BLURRY COMMUNICATION WITH SAMSUNG OVER THIS UPDATE.

All in all...there are no answers yet as to why this update isnt working...but we know that it is causing problems.

Basically, what that tells me is stop resetting, odin-ing, unrooting, and reflashing...it is a problem on Samsungs end...not your device.
[Captivate General] qwertyaas:
That doesn't help those of us with completely bricked phones...
[Captivate General] fiendiish:
Contact Samsung 1800 726 7864. That's the number I was given by AT&T to call. Or, take your phone to an AT&T store. You did nothing to brick your device. This is their issue.
[Captivate General] kevrocks:
We have the choice to not do the update, right? I think I read that from another thread somewhere, but I just wanted to double check. I haven't received a notification from AT&T yet about the update, but when I do, I don't think I want to go through with it seeing how there are a lot of issues with the update.
[Captivate General] orlandoxpolice:
"AT&T does not provide technical support for the Samsung Captivate update and makes no warranties, express, implied or statutory, as to the content within this solution; such content is provided "as is" and with all faults, and your use of the content is at your own risk. "

this is a mess
[Captivate General] ssongpol:
Oh mannnn...after reading your painful story with AT&T & Samsung...all I want to say to those people is "F*** YOU!!".

WTH have you guys been doing for 2 months???

You have spent 2 months to come up with the phone bricker not the problem fixer???

I really want to switch to Android world but it seems starting with Samsung is one hell bad idea of mine. Maybe I should wait for the phones from other makers.
[Captivate General] SkitchBeatz:

[Captivate General] terrigan:
Well.. if you think about it, as soon as we rooted our units.. there goes AT&T's responsibility.
[Captivate General] legend221:
That's the thing I noticed the most about AT&T, they are pros are shifting to blame to anyone but themselves.

If you're under the 30 day return policy return it ASAP, No hesitation, talk to a manager if necessary.

For those over 30 days hope for the best, make AT&T and Samsung aware of your issue.
[Captivate General] thehavock18:
I just got off the phone with AT&T they are sending me a new phone. Spent about 45 minutes on the phone doing through all of test they do to try and get the update. The tech I talked to is actually overnighting me a new phone. I had to agree to the terms that there is no physical damage or liquid damage. There is none.

I claimed my GPS failes to aquire a viable signal. Network tower triangulation is not acceptable. I waited passed the 30 days for this update that was promised and I can no longer get.

I have used ODIN in the past and believe something with it is causing the problem. Before I ever used odin I had a backup made of my entire phone with just a root.

Tried to use ODIN and restore my previous ROM with no luck still failing at 50%. I have removed all traces of lagfix, root, roms and still can not get the update to take. I even swapped out the SIM card at the store. All of it failed so the tech had them rush me a new phone.
[Captivate General] legend221:
Wow, so anyone getting this phone should really just wait for the phones that are pre-installed with this update already.

Sounds like Ill have to wait a few months then.

Thanks for the info.
[Captivate General] qwertyaas:
I was within my 30 days so they gave me a new Captivate. Sadly, I haven't had a chance to back up my old phone so everything is gone from there.

For some reason, the AT&T employee said this uses my only 'exchange' in terms of warranty. I didn't even bother to argue as that makes no sense - how is replacing a bricked phone (that was bricked on an AT&T update) 'exchanging' the phone [as in being able to exchange to a different phone].
[Captivate General] bookofjoshua:
I would think that one could argue successfully to get a new phone regardless, because this update is being pushed to the phone and not voluntarily download (by some), I woke up to a message that the device had fail to connect to the server (thank god) for the update. but if they're updating your phone without your approval then they (whomever is pushing the update) can't absolve themselves of responsibility. unless my not reading the EULA leads to it saying something like, we can do what we want when we want and you can suck it!
[Captivate General] BigJayDogg3:
Not sure if that's true. I have GPS issues (Even outside on a clear night it took more than five minutes for me to get a lock). My phone is bricked.

A new one is on the way. Should be here tomorrow.

never had problems with rom manager,

do u have sd adapter?

try and format the card threw windows/linux, format type FAT32, or if u have another phone like a nokia format the SDcard in that phone, had some problems with the SDcard, not recognized in Desire, format it with an Nokia, and then the SD is readble again in my Desire, then with RM, partitioned the card ;)
