[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
on the Dell it's holding volume up

on the Desire is holding the home button

so what is the safe mode boot up key for SGS ? :confused:

Tried the Menu+Home+Power On mentioned on another topic, but it doesn't work

I was playing with the settings of LauncherPro, and some options sent it into a constant loop of Force Close, rendering the phone useless

If i can boot into Safe Mode, then i can delete/uninstall launcher pro, and go back to the stock TwLauncher
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] appelflap:
Good question! I recently did some heavy experimental development stuff on the SGS and I managed to get a few times into save mode. Didn't know how it was booting into save mode though. The why was clear enough though. :D

Will look if I can reproduce it with that frankenstein app.
[EVO 4G General] splink7007:
So my EVO now has 2 hair line cracks. One to the left of the power button and one under the volume buttons. I stopped at the Sprint store and the tech verified the cracks were not caused by abuse. He notated my account so when I call Sprint customer service they will ship me a new phone. Now I have 2 questions? Will the replacement be a refurb? And in the email they sent about my replacement it states: If im not enrolled in TEP (which im not) it will be $99-$119 depending on device model for wear and tear, physical damage and mechanical or electrical failures not covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Now since the sprint tech at the store verified it was not physical damage or abuse. The device manufacturer's warranty covers mechanical and electrical failures. What are these hair line cracks considered? They are definitly a manufacturer's defect, but like the warranty stated it covers mechanical and electrical failures. I sure hope they dont try to charge me for a defect. I have the Epson rev 002 rooted and I'm loving it. I just dont feel after 2 months I should have these damn cracks.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
people have said for hardware they will send your a new one if you raise enough hell but id guess it's going to be a refurb
[EVO 4G General] splink7007:
That's what I was worried about. I hate the fact that I paid all that money and now have a defect but in return they give me a refurb. I guess in some cases a refurb that was examined by a human may be better than off the assembly line?
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
Refurb if you had TEP it would be new. I had a Touch Pro 2 that cracked and I felt the same way. The guy at the Sprint store told me too bad its cosmetic doesn't effect the performance of the phone.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
WOW thats exactly how I felt about the TP2. Lucky for me I had TEP on the Touch Pro as well. So Sprint paid the deductible for me, in that case. I called Sprint from the parking lot of the Sprint store and told them just about everything your posting now. I was very angry but they helped me as best they could.

Really the thing to do is get TEP its worth the money. I think you can add it when you get the refurb.
[EVO 4G General] splink7007:
Great, now if your guy said its cosmetic. When they get my defected phone back to sprint will they charge me you think?
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
You know its one of those things you just don't know. That email is probably just a cookie cutter email, copy and paste. If they do you can always call and give them hell maybe they will remove the charges problem is you wont see them until after you activate the phone. I try not to start off mad as hell I work my way too it.
[EVO 4G General] werxen:
Demand a new phone. I had wifi problems that were due to ****ty hardware construction and I told them I'm not taking a refurb because HTC sucks and the manager gave me a brand new Evo. Had to wait for it to arrive but was worth it. Don't take no for an answer. The Evo refurb I was supposed to get had dust and dirt and scratches on the camera lens. Sprint+HTC can suck it.
[EVO 4G General] Jim M:
FYI on Evo refurb's, the outside case is new, only the guts have been repaired.
[EVO 4G General] splink7007:
I just got off the phone with Sprints retention dept. I spoke to a sup there who said all the phones that are over 30 days gets replaced with a refurbished phone. I even threatened to cancel he didn't budge.
[EVO 4G General] dmystic1:
Tried that too, thru the office of dan, all they did was to offer to waive my etf (I still have 1 year left), if I give them back the EVO.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyKid:
Hello,

few days ago I bought Chinase copy of HTC Diamond 2 = T5388+. Everything works perfectly excepting wifi which works only when charging.

I had HTC elf WIN 6.0 before and there was a simple let say power mode balancing wifi performace versus baterry performace.

I see the same problem now and a simple solusion on my new phone but unfortunately THIS POWER MODE TO BALANCE WIFI PERFORMANCE IS MISSING! I DO NOT KNOW WHY BUT IT IS NOT IN MY NEW T5388+, I have checked everything without success.

Please, can you help me how to work with wifi on battery? to set MAX performance for wifi regardless baterry?

THanks a lot

Martin

PS: Phone is good, price was 200 USD.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Unfortunately, that is the risk with cloned devices.

I suggest you ask in the Clone ROM thread to see if a fix has been disovered.

[Vibrant General] vapotrini:
On the Gmail app on the Vibrant, is there any way to set when your phone checks for mail? I'd like to be able to lower the rate at which it checks. Can't seem to find any option for it whatsoever.
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
As far as I know, there is no polling interval. New e-mails are pushed directly to your phone the moment they arrive.
[Vibrant General] watcher64:
If you want to do this, you need to turn off email sync, with gmail , and set gmail up with the regular email app on the phone, gmail gets push mail notifictations, the regular app polls at a set time.
[Vibrant General] vapotrini:
Thanks for the responses.

Well if that's true then surely that is hurting battery life, no?
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
A further question:

Will Gmail still update if you turn off Auto Sync? What about Background Data?
[Vibrant General] dq13:
if you turn off auto sync, then nothing will come to the phone that is on that account, email, contacts, calendar, etc. its either all on or all off
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
Not necessarily. You may want to look into other options to conserve battery life, but if you feel that Gmail is the culprit, Id say that watcher has the appropriate solution. The regular email app, is decidedly less feature filled, but you can certainly change the polling interval with it.

No, with Auto-sync off, you only get calls and texts.
[Vibrant General] davidron:
Push is not Poll

I don't believe that is necessarily true. Gmail leaves a TCP/IP connection open to a server, but transmits no data unless there is a new message. In other words, think of your phone as running a very simple and secure server that is ready and listening for Google to connect to it and alert it that there is a new message to retrieve (I don't think it's really a server, but it helps conceptually). Leaving that port open and a constant connection with no data flowing requires no additional battery life over what is necessary for your cellular modem to be on (which you need to be able to receive calls as well).

Wikipedia says that the technology used is Microsoft ActiveSync, but I'm inclined to believe it's XMPP (which is what Google Talk uses and is built into Android for other uses as well). But the above description of the technology is valid either way.

(spamblocker, remove the spaces) http :// en.wikipedia. org /wiki/ Push_e-mail # Google_Android

Every time a message is received, battery life is consumed in order to download the message. So, if you were to get the message on your desktop first, handle it, and delete it, I presume that would save you the battery life of the download of that message, but that is a very nominal amount of battery life. I wouldn't worry about it.
[Vibrant General] smutek:
Just a heads up to the OP (or anyone interested) regarding the stock email application- my experience was that the polling interval was unreliable. I have 3 email accounts, 2 of them were set to check on frequent intervals like 10 minutes or something and the third was set up to check on the hour.

Often times the stock email app would miss the intervals or would not check at all. Additionally there were numerous occasions that mail was sitting on my server but the stock vibrant mail would report no messages.

Your mileage may vary as many people seem to have very different experiences with their phones and bugs. My experience with the stock email app was pretty poor so I thought it worth sharing.

GPS and such annoyed me but I figured I'd be able to wait it out for a fix. Email was nearly a deal breaker though, especially having these problems after coming from blackberrys which do a great job with email.

I figured gmail was the way to go but i didnt want to get into some complex forwading scheme fr all of my email addresses.

The way I ended up working it out was to set up a free Google business account and change the mx records on my mail server to run through Google servers instead of my webhosts servers. Now I'm running all of my email addresses on the Gmail application and have push email and aside from a few minor gripes with the gmail/android interface I am pretty happy overall.

I'd suggest sticking with the gmail application, push email is a good thing.
[Vibrant General] kizer:
Juice Defender from the market allows for setting how often your phone connects to a data connection. More or less doing the same thing.

I don't personally use it since I don't care, but it should answer the OP's question with a working solution.
[Vibrant General] vapotrini:
Thanks for all the responses guys, a lot of good alternatives out there it seems.

I don't get all that many emails a day so was just curious if disabling it would save a lot of battery life. Since the general consensus is that it doesn't I'll leave it be.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callous-1:
I would like to start everything from scratch, wiping all data, partitions. How can i go about this?

I can't boot into my phone and I'm convinced its because of the voodoo lagfix that i applied
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
type this in the dial pad

*2767*3855#

let us know how it turned out
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callous-1:
Sorry, I should have mentioned, that i can't even boot into the O/S. Phone goes to black screen after samsung logo. I can get into download and recovery modes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
well if that is the case

try to see if you can at least go into the Download Mode or Recovery Mode

if you can get into Download Mode, you can try to flash a stock firmware and get it working again, if that doesn;t fix it

you'll have to send it in for repair

and the tab of people having their internal SD messed up after using Lag Fix just keeps on adding up
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callous-1:
Yup, more and more I'm convinced that the internal sd is screwed up because of the lagfix. Now i have a 500$ paperweight.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
can't you take it back to the store to have it repaired?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callous-1:
I called Samsung today. They said take it to Bell. Unfortuntely I bought it full pop and unlocked it to work with fido. I'll try anyways to take it back to bell. I have nothing to lose at this point.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] g0nk:
Is there any way easily to get rid of the clock and the battery icon in the top status bar? Those are the only two i'd like to hide, because of Beautiful Widgets and BattStat there's no reason to have them up there anymore.

Thanks!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kangi26:
If you're using LauncherPro, you can hide the whole top taskbar. I don't know about just the clock and battery icons
[Captivate Themes and Apps] g0nk:
I am using LaunchPro, but I do not want to hide the whole taskbar. Just the battery icon and time.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iphonekillers:
haven't seen anything that does that yet!, but what if your in app and you need the time you gotta exit out.....?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] g0nk:
then tough luck for me then? :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] cappysw10:
never mind
[Captivate Themes and Apps] g0nk:
bump for any ideas..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] JPS81:
I'd like to know this as well. It seems like it's a trivial thing to do with CyanogenMod + Spare Parts, and also supposedly easier with 2.2 (and who knows when we'll get that....).

I've seen a few hacks that basically move its position off the screen, but I was hoping for something a little more elegant than that.

For the battery icon, I just replaced it with one that's actually useful.

My googlefu seems to be failing me at the moment so I can't link you to that hack. It's somewhere on these forums though.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dorigny:
I try several times to flash my HD2, using flashaholic tool, with T29, and every time it's the same : when I go to my alarms sound there are the old one !

So what's more efficient than a task 29 + HR ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3PH:
Errm you do realise that if you task 29 your HD2 there will be nothing at all on it except the (h)spl and the radio rom? So hard resetting after a task29 isn't going to do anything AT ALL!

Personally i use http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=291950&d=1268260144 it's a simple and compact task 29 util created by doloop. Works for me everytime but be very aware that after a task29 YOU WILL NEED TO INSTALL A ROM AND THEN RECONFIGURE EVERYTHING so do a backup first
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
I often work/play in noisy environments and don't hear incoming calls. Having the phone in a leather case makes it hard to feel vibrations, as well. Then there is the problem (no fix found yet) of calls that come in as anonymous or unknown that don't trigger a ringtone. On previous phones I would get a reminder chime and vibe like every 5 minutes for missed calls. Is there a setting or app for this on the Tilt 2/TP2? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pf:
I guess, Sense can do this, but I do not use Sense.

I use WisbarAdvancedDesktop 2 for my UI and this can do the job.

For PhoneProfiles I use PhoneAlarm (www.pocketmax.net) and this also can do this job very good.

And there is lots of more software doing this job :)
[Captivate Accessories] Digital Man:
Everyone seems to prefer minimalist cases like the body glove for the Captivate.

Anyone found a decent flip-style leather case?

Companies like Sena, Vaja and Piel Frama used to make beautiful cases for phones like the Tilt 2 and iPhone but so far they haven't shown any interest in the Captivate.

Found only a few possibilities so far:

http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=26&mid=1038&pid=7280

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_10000000_11001013&products_id=31136

http://www.fortte.com/scr/showproduct.php/1393?type=0

Problem is only one of these says its for the Captivate, rest are for Galaxy S - anyone know how physically different the Galaxy S is from the Captivate? I'm tempted to buy one of the Galaxy S cases but not sure it will fit. Is the ATT version exactly the same?
[Captivate Accessories] mxk271:
I'm not sure if it's all exactly the same but size wise i would assume that it would be all similar since all samsung galaxy s line uses 4inch super amoled. not sure if the side controls are located in same space.
[Captivate Accessories] Rongvald:
Fortte seems to have just released a bunch of styles for the Captivate:

http://www.fortte.com/scr/showcategory3.php/407

I swear they only had one style for the Captivate when I was looking at their site yesterday :)
[Captivate Accessories] Digital Man:
Rongvald, thanks for pointing out that the fortte site was updated with new models. The book style looks interesting. Already ordered the PDair flip top, but think I might order this one as well, it looks better made and it would give me one top opening and one side opening design.

I'll let you know how they work when I get them.
[Captivate Accessories] schtuka:
the best looking leather cases i found here, but still waiting for them to support captivate.

http://www.noreve.com/index.html
[Captivate Accessories] Philux:
Most cases Droid X & Milestone will work for the Capy. I just so happen to find a cheap leather iphone case at Big Lots for $7 and it has a plastic durable belt clip and magnetic flap enclosure. I use it until I get my Naztech Gladiator II. Then as long as the Naztech fits okay it will be my work holster, and I will use the cheap ipone holster as my dress up or going out holster.

If you look at iphone holster try before you buy as most iphone holster are actually to small. I just got lucky I guess.

Who in the states imports them ? I like the metal clip and also the leather case with a built in stand

[Captivate Accessories] marianne18:
Just found this one in Pdair's online store. I have bought several cases from them. The quality is very good. Highly recommend.:p

Pdair Leather case for AT&T Samsung Captivate Galaxy S SGH-i897 - Flip Type (Black)
[Captivate Accessories] marianne18:
It sells for £16.00 in amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/PDair-Leath...GH8NFX2T1PDF&s=generic&qid=1287236186&sr=1-15
[Captivate Accessories] Digital Man:
Problem with the PDair case is it fits too damn tight. It requires a lot of force to get the phone in and out. If there is any dirt or grit I get the feeling I am essentially sanding the surface of the phone each time I take it out or put it in.

This isn't a problem if you intend to put the phone in and leave it there. But I can't do that, because I need to take it out to put it in my car dock and to put it in my desktop stand.

I had a Piel-Frama flip case for my tilt 2 which I would put on and off for the car dock and it fit just right, no friction. The PDair case for the Captivate fits like its one size too small in my opinion. Of course it may loosen up with time as it is made of leather.

I have chosen to go the silicone case (galaxy S official samsung - body glove style) and put the phone with the silicone case into a verizon droid X leather pouch case. The fit with the silicone glove is so perfect it looks like it was designed for the captivate. Now when I take the phone out of the leather case and pop it into the car dock, it is still protected.

I am still exploring the flip case option, might go with one of the fortte cases, they look very nice, but I am hoping that one of the premium leather companies will eventualy produce a case that fits perfect and protects well.
[Touch HD General] Luxatr:
My Problem is, that when i get a call an my phone is on vibrate, the volume change after the call. So when i get the next call, my ringtone go on.

Not very usefull at school...

Hope you understand my problem and you can find a solution. :o

Because I dont find any settings for that, maybe its a tweak? I'm using energyRom and have this problem while several Roms.
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
you should probably have posted this in the respective rom thread, because this is not a general problem. it is fairly unlikely, that that is an actual hardware problem, unless your phone keeps changing the volume all the time.

maybe changing the radio rom might also help.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Apeleon:
Hello all,I have searched and search but to no avail no option have worked for me yet. I need to unbrick my phone,yes I can still get into hboot and fastboot so there is some hope. I have tried multiple times to flash a sappimg to allow me to flash a recovery radio and boot,just none have worked.Even the ones that did appear to work,got stuck at unzipping.

Everytime I would try to flash something through flashboot it will just fail a signature check,and if I try to use fastboot to boot into a recovery,it just hangs till my battery dies out or I pull it out.

This is my fastboot info

SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT_1.33.0009 (SAPP31000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

May 8 2009,21:02:32

To give a basic run down this is what I am experencing

1.Cannot locate a suitable sappimg

2.Fastboot and Hboot are running,but security is on so I can flash another recovery radio or boot.

3. Cannot get into any type of OS

4. Cannot load into a recovery through fastboot

5. SAPPIMG stops a unzipping or fails signing check.

I don't want to beg for help,I am just all out of ideas to try to fix it,have search and such and the last way for me to fix it would be run it over with my car and take it through insurace =(

So if anyone could lend a hand I would much appreciate it.

Fix your goldcard!

You need to remake the goldcard...

You should not get signing errors with a working goldcard.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Apeleon:
Easier said then done sadly,I would need to actually get into the OS to do the adb command to get the string of numbers to input into the thing that reverse engineers the number to create a gold card =( Using the goldcard I had when I flash the first time though,I dont suppose anything would change.
