According to the official video from HTC, the Desire Z has it Dolby Mobile.

I cant post a link as I'm new here. But if you search in YouTube for "HTC Desire Z - A Closer Look", you find a video which is 8:48.

See 3:56.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Jorsher:
Being that the G2 is a barebones "with Google" experience, I highly doubt that it will come with the SRS/Dolby Mobile feature -- although I hope I'm wrong.

I do believe that it should be as easy as a custom rom, though. I don't see them adding additional hardware for the Desire Z.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] eleeo037037:
Try this.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] laztpn0i:
huh????????????

Anyways I remember hTC had the video up on their website saying that it had srs dolby. But now the video is pulled down. I'm guessing it was a mistake on their part .
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mtl171:
what's he trying to link to?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Jorsher:
I'm at work so can't check the link either, but I know what the OP is talking about.

Demo video of the HTC Desire Z showed "Dolby Mobile" and "SRS" emblazoned on the back of the phone.

Either way, I highly doubt extra hardware is involved, and maybe we'll see it cooked into some future custom roms.

Honestly, Sense looked pretty good on the demo videos.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] eleeo037037:
It was working about 3 days ago I don't understand why it was taken down hope its not bad new but hopefully the G2 is what I expect if not I might just wait for the HD instead

Dolby

The MSM7230 with embedded DSP processor has support for Dolby 5.1 and a lot of other cool features.

Notice the clock speed for either 800mhz or 1 Ghz.

Looks like they have chosen the 800mhz clock speed here. I like the fact that, once rooted, the 1 Ghz option is stable and falls within the specs of the processor. Overclocking past 1 Ghz should be possible too, but as always at your own risk.

I can't post the link so just google MSM7230 for the features.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mtl171:
according to qualcomm, MS7230 runs at a stock speed of 800mhz. though another website says its recommended max clock frequency is 1Ghz.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] lex_87:
OK, so today I decided to update my Galaxy S firmware via Kies as it was now available for Vodafone customers. All seemed to go ok, got to the final screen on Kies where it says completed, phone will reboot when firmware update completed. However it never did reboot, the menu and back button lights just lit up and stayed on for ages.

Now the phone would only boots to the Galaxy S start up screen and get stuck.

I decided to go into recovery mode and do a factory reset which sort of helped. The phone boots up into Andorid but only to the 'Welcome to GT-I9000, touch the Android to begin'. Except the 'force close' messages keep popping up saying XXXX process has stopped unexpectedly, and pressing the 'touch android to begin' doesn't do anything (more force close errors pop up). After a while the force close errors stop, but pressing 'the Android' does nothing.

If I plug the USB cable in it is recognised and I can choose Samsung Kies/Mass Storage mode on the phone. However, if I press Samsung Kies and fire up Kies it just gets stuck on 'connecting'. Nothing shows up on on the phone though.

Any ideas on what to do next? Flash firmware with Odin?

Any help would be much appreciated, really don't want to have to send it back to Vodafone :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr.Hunk:
Have you tried unplugging the battery from the device and leaving it for a while and restart it. It may work out....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lex_87:
I've flashed it to JM8 now and is working okish.

I installed the project voodoo lag fix and now I can't sign into my gmail or facebook account which is slightyly irritating :mad:. Worked fine before, any ideas why it comes up with "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"?

I'm using wifi to connect to the internet, full signal, worked fine in same place before etc. Internet works fine so it suggests the connection is ok. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ashvsaod:
I had this issue yesterday and resolved it by doing a factory reset in the settings app. For some train the recovery mode reset doesn't reset the google link..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Valeo:
lex_87, did you ever resolve this? I've been having a tonne of issues since upgrading to the Vodafone-provided update that was released on 19/09, and after getting fed up with my phone crashing/panicking all the time, did a a factory reset from within the Settings menu. And now I've got exactly the same issue as you. :(

Really not sure what to do. If I flash it myself I'll end up voiding the warranty and if I send it back to Vodafone, I won't get a replacement for weeks, if not months, as they're out of stock.

Any help would be appreciated...

You need to re-enter your APN settings to get data to work again, Google for vodafone's APN settings.

please help im pulling my hair out here and missing my phone
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikemaker:
One of the programs that I have installed is using massive amounts of data in the background, so I have tried doing a complete wipe and re-install so that I can add apps one by one to find out what it is. The problem I am having is that all of my downloaded apps are being automatically re-installed. I have un-checked the option in titanium backup and un-ckecked the box in setup for google to backup and restore. Is there something else that I am missing? This became a problem when I started using Froydvillain 1.5. I know it is not something in Froydvillain because it happened again when I switched to floyo 0.8. Is it just a feature of 2.2? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
This is a 2.2 feature. If you go into menu, settings, privacy, and turn on backup, you can then turn off restore, and turn off backup. That's what I do every flash.

Thanks Pulser! I never would have looked under Privacy Settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikemaker:
Hmm...turns out that didn't work either. Everything still auto re-installed. I guess I just have to uninstall my downloaded programs and re-install them one by one.
[Epic 4G General] Tonythetigger:
I was browsing my system info and it seems my cou is running at 800mhz? Do u guys also have this as the standard
[Epic 4G General] Tonythetigger:
I mean when I view the system info in Quadrant, it says the cpu is underclocked
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
samsung built in an ondemand power bias, it will scale up to 1ghz if needed but will most of the time sit comfortably at 800
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Cpu speed is self throttled. It won't run at 1gz unless required by whatever it is you are asking the device to do. This is to conserve battery usage. Ie: The phone doesn't need to run at 1gz to play solitare smoothly but might to play a video or 3d game.

Edit: I see someone beat me to the answer. :-)

I want to update it but here in visakhapatnam the service center guys told me not to.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ragin:
There have been people here who were adventurous enough to go ahead & flsh their phones to whatever they wanted. A few of them got their phones BRICKED. Cant to ahead, cant go back, STUCK. They went & complained at the service centers that they were trying to update via Kies, the official Samsing software & god knows what went wrong, its BRICKED. I think they ended up convincing them. Well, tjis is the gist of what I have learned from the forums, its your call, you take it. I am from Hubli, Karnataka, India. I hated the stock ROM, updated to JG4 via Kies, Hated it, Updated to JPC, Loved it, Updated to JPH, aahhh, beautiful.

There's a thread here that points to the Stock DDJG4 ROM for India if you want to revert back.

Guys, I am from Bangalore and living with JG4. I havent applied any lagfix or GPS fix.

I am generally happy with JG4 but yea, havent seen a offical update in a while.

I am rooted: Search for 1-click Root/Unroot for Galaxy S

With a click you can root yourself and can unroot too - for warranty reasons.

Never observed a lag as such but I use AutoKiller Memory. Keeps my phone smooth; no lags.Try the aggressive setting.

GPS works good, fix is fast and position perfect. I use Google Navigation [BRUT], yes you can use the US Google navigation here in India with spoken street names - hows that. Recently I did a Bangalore - Pondicherry drive just on Google Navigation and it was awesome. I had all internal village roads mapped and navigated me through it. As you already know, the stock official Google Navigation doesnt work.

This line almost made me jump off my chair. Which 23rd are you taking about. Is it confirmed ?

Anybody from Mumbai ? Thats my hometown. There's an APP for rickshaw/taxi fare here on android market. Right now it works for Mumbai only. That was the best one I could find.

If you guys have any other cool apps that you have discovered for [indian] context, please share.

Thanks,

Have a good one.

KingHarsha - here you go

Search 'brut google maps 4.4' in google. Use the first link to load BRUT versions while keeping your stock google maps and navigation versions. Use the Stockified versions if you want to replace teh stock ones. I didnt do that, and I am comfortable with BRUT versions sitting near the stock ones.

No you have to pay data charges. But seeing that you are on this phone, I guess you already have data enabled on your PC. And yea you stay in chennai, so definitely you have 3G as well. I switched to dreaded BSNL just to get 3G services.

But dont worry abt data too much. Surprisingly it doesnt uze that much. If you have wifi at home, just setup your flightplan and it will download tiles along your way. tiles are big enough so if you detour or so, you are still within the downloaded area. U need to enable cache in brut menu.

Personally, I dont use the voice directions in city. It doesnt give instructions but it says a sentence. thats too much to decode while driving. But that problem exists in original sw as well. I kept it on during my roadtrip and I had great experience. First thing you will notice is that its smooth, your car doesnt update in jumps or maps dont move in jumps, they just smoothly rotate or move. Alternate routes, layers on teh way...its all there and its great.

Best part is oneways etc gets updated frequently and automatically since u connect to the cloud. When a flyover construction started, within a month it started routing me with the official detour posted on the road by traffic authorities. So thats great.

Well, thats my experience though.

Just search for 'one click root unroot galaxy S' on this forum. Not sure if it will work for you since you are already rooted.

Guys,

Looks like i am taking the dive and installing lagfix. I see 2 options - oneclick lay fix, or cflagfix.

Do you guys recommend any one of these?

Also in cant so 3buttons recovery and need to do that using clockmod's reboot to recovery option. Song if things don't work while Installation in will have to use odin only to reflash ddjg4. Something in have never done.

Song in was thinking of following sequence titanium backup - clockmod backup- odin reflash ddjg4 - install oneclick root - install oneclick lagfix / cflagfix - titanium restore.

If things break while installation of lagfix like in have seen phone not rebooting for many after installation of fix, then abort and reflash ddjg4 again.

Plz send in your comments. Any better way to do this. You can also say dont be so scared as you might have guessed i am sh$%the scared to do this and gathering my guts right now.

1. Press Vol UP + Home + Power btn

2. As soon as you see GT-9000 logo release power button but keep holding Vol UP + Home

3. You will see recovery mode in next 5-6 seconds

Above works fine for me.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] madpete:
Hi Guys,

Just to say, I had my defective Galaxy S replaced recently (had only had it two weeks), however its becoming clear that the new one is much better in a few ways.

Although they look identical (are are setup exactly the same way), they behave differently in a few key ways.

First up, my battery life was pathetic on the first handset, I'd be lucky if it made it to the end of the day. With the new one, I can still have 65% to 70% left after the same useage and setup at the end of the day. Bad battery?

Second, I dont seem to get much lag now. Its still there under heavy use but nowhere near as bad as it was....maybe it was a bad install on the first one? Although I did factory reset it, and it was still the same.

Third, Kies now connects perfectly every time. This drove me nuts on the first handset, kies would sit at connecting while the MTP app rebooted itself over and over on the phone. I worked out through reading, and trial and error that it was the internal sd card that caused it. Or rather specific files on the sd card, format it and it would connect...install my apps and it wouldn't.

The new phone however doesn't care what apps are on it (installed everything that was on the first one), it just connects. I have checked the firmware rev and its the same as phone one. Wierd :confused:

Fourth, my recovery mode now works :) It would never work on the first phone. In the end this was the reason it got swapped.

The phone was acting a bit weird so I took it to a Samsung service point who said they would flatten it and flash new software, however when they tried the bootloader / recovery would not work. They then said that this was a fault and it would need to be sent back to Samsung to fix recovery mode, however the phone was still under DOA with the shop I brought it from so I took it there with a note from the service centre to back me up. Hence I now have a new phone, and recovery mode works.

So two phones owned with in two weeks, from the same shop....different beasts. Quality control anyone?

Just thought I'd share my experiences with you.

Pete.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hansonator:
Good to hear your up and running on a proper phone.

One thing people don't seem to get is that when it come to mass production/manufacturing, there are going to be units that get shipped that are defective.

Quality control cannot possibly check every unit 100%, most is done by the way of batch inspection ( a few units from each batch) to check for major/minor flaws.

This goes for all manufactured products. I bought a Sharp LCD TV a few years ago and when I got it home I noticed there were significant ghost images especially in dark scenes. I took it back and they told me that 1 in 5 of any TV is defective. I took home another one, same make and model, have had it for over two years and it is still crystal clear.

Once people realize this they will enjoy their products much more. Put them to the test, in store or at home and keep it if it's good, return it if it's not. If you are happy with a product other than a possible defect it makes no sense to exchange it for something else unless you go through a few and they all have defects then this indicates poor quality all together. If possible, go to a different location to make the exchange, it is possible for one store to get a whole bad batch.

This does not mean that there is no crap out there. No shortage of that for sure. That said, who can name ONE manufacturer, besides Ferrari, that puts out 100% non defective products. ;-)
