[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
With all the little quirks and mishaps i've had with this device (none of which have been a deal breaker for me) I am still very pleased i purchased this phone. To me it just seems to be getting better and better. Yes just like anyone else I would love to have Froyo and would love for my GPS to work 100% all the time but that is just a chance you take with technology and new devices. You learn to cope and deal. Really isnt that hard to grasp.
[Vibrant General] Segnaro:
Only because it runs rock solid for me, I don't need to do anymore tweaks or anything. :cool:

Hoping Froyo brings in more developers and makes things a little more fun. :cool:
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Vibrant too is my first android phone and also my very first smart phone. Although, I have owned 3 different iPod Touches, so that at least gives me some perspective of how a "smart" Mobile OS should be such as Android, iOS, etc.

I am very please with the hardware, and Android in general. However, coming from iOS, android does felt short in terms of upgrade path. ROM from independent developers are great but the lack of proper channel for official OS update really is the "nail in the coffin" kinda of thing.

With the exception of iOS 4 which excluded 2g, 3g iPhone; Apple users can expect an update on a timely yearly basis which usually adds features and bug fixes. It just makes you feel better when you know that an official update is definitely coming. We are kinda stuck in the situation where we are depended on Samsung to push for the update. Sigh.

Other than that, I am really glad I made the switch, the notification bar is my all time favor and of course Multitasking.
[Vibrant General] hourst2:
Samsung has dropped the ball in a lot of ways. I am inclined to say that the superior Android maker is HTC--just my opinion. Nevertheless, this phone its really growing on me, perhaps because of all of its nuances. I have learned a lot trying to mod the phone and create my own fixes. The hardware on this phone is rather amazing, so I know that if I get the software right I will love it. The first glimpse of that was when I installed Bionix 1.3. If you do not have it, then go get it in the dev thread. 1.4 should be releasing soon. Bionix has rejuvenated my interest in the Vibrant.

[Vibrant General] DKYang:
Why do people expect everything to come out fast by big companies? Motorola's wireless division, which is probably still small compared to when they were big in the past, only concentrates on Android, thus faster releases. HTC has been in the ball game since day 1 and is basically purely concentrating on Android until WP7 comes out. Samsung, well, I don't even know. There division makes all kinds of phones and working on different OSs while HTC and Motorola are concentrating only on Android. Oh, everyone should know how slow T-mobile is with updates. Really, they aren't the fastest ones around. With T-mobile, it's always been quality over speed.

Anyways, stop making pointless complaint topics, we don't need any more to clutter this forum. That's what I'm basically trying to say.
[Vibrant General] demize!:
Someone said that your handset cant replace your laptop, while this may be true, I have practically left mine to cobweb as I pretty much do everything I need to with my handset. It is more natural to me to have a device in my hand for typing and reading. I come from a Wing to a G1 and I really am happy with this unit. I wish there was a larger screen ,2.2 xenon flash,etc.etc. But this is by far the best mobile experience I've had.

Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
You can lie to yourself but you can't lie to others.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
T-Mobile has obviously been testing updates. They're probably the ones that had Samsung pull JI5 for whatever reason.

If we wanted to be up there with AT&T we would have some nice bricks.

To be honest, the Vibrant is probably one of the LEAST buggiest Galaxy S devices. The Captivate and Bell Vibrant have problems with random shutdowns.. if this is happening to the Vibrant we've barely heard of it/could be related to something else like SetCPU.

The JIx series is going to be a great update, when T-Mobile decides to get it out to us.

I'm trying to push a file to /system/app but it's read-only. I know there's a command to allow me to write to it, but do I need to be rooted to do so? I'm attempting to put SprintZone.apk back in /system/app so I can update firmware. Feel free to PM me on this, too...I'm not doing so well hahaha.

I'm pretty sure you can just do this:

Adb shell

Su

Remount rw

That was enough to let me edit my build.Prop when root explorer wasn't remounting correctly.

Although I would recommend root explorer for stuff like this... remounts on the epic now and it let's you Remount in the application without adb. I think it's $0.99 in the market and we'll worth it.

Looking to get a bigger microSd card for my vogue but I'm unsure of how big I can go. Is 16GB compatible? If so what class 4 or 6 and could you please recommend brands? Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Accessories] BARBARIAN-X:
No replies!

Do any of you have 16GB microSD cards working in your Vogue?
[Touch CDMA Accessories] Does_It_Matter:
Nope... I believe 8GB is max for the Vogue's

[Touch CDMA Accessories] BARBARIAN-X:
Weird! I'm being told that 16GB & 32GB micro SDHC will work...
[Touch CDMA Accessories] mrkite38:
Well, the published max is probably from the winmo specs, for WinMo 6.1, who knows under 6.5 or android.

In regards to the other part of your question, the higher the class, the better (in theory.)

Hey guys,

So I flashed the ROM rubiX Focused 0.3 and somehow couldnt get my phone past the activation screen. No big deal. I couldn't get access to the bootstraper either. So I use my good old Handydandy 2.1 SBF and revert my phone back to stock. I then use a copy of the .604 update to hopefully prep my phone to install the 2.2 ota Leak. Well I am getting ready to 1 click root it after installing 604 and move su around and I happen to check my version number under about phone and I have 2.2. WTF? I am not super upset or anything I just dont understand how? The System version and the Base band version both match the 2.2 OTA but honestly How did I get it?

If no one can answer this its fine, just thought I would throw it out there since it was bugging me.

Thanks!

HTC-Droid

Comprehensive Flash & MetaMorph Theme

​

Click in the Thumbnail for individual screenshots:

The Theme Flashed as an update.zip using the stock recovery mode or using MetaMorph.

It has been tested on I897UCJF6 and I897UCJH7. I cannot vouch that it will work on any other ROM.

A number of HTC elements have been blended while retaining a Droid “feel”. For example: It retains the android blue highlights vice the HTC Green. There really are too many changes to describe. Give it a try.

If you don’t like it,

Return it back to the stock

. I’ve included that too.

Note... Stock MetaMorph Revert: Due to Metamorph limitations the battery will remain 1-100%, but it will look stock (original SRE).

The Theme uses a blend of my custom graphics and source graphics from:

EVO 4G (many customized)

SRE 1-100% Battery (fully customized)

Changes are made to

:

framework-res.apk

twframework-res.apk

Settings.apk

Email.apk

Gmail.apk

Mms.apk

MediaProvider.apk

Flash Installation Instructions

:

Copy “HTC-Droid_v1.0.zip” or “StockJF6-JH7_Revert.zip” to the root of your internal sdcard

Rename to update.zip

Boot into recovery mode

Select "Reinstall Packages"

Wait for your phone to reboot and Enjoy

MetaMorph Installation Instructions

:

Make sure you are using the latest version of MetaMorph (1.9.13 or higher).

WARNING: Make sure USB Debugging is enabled in Settings -> Applications -> Development.

Trying this now.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Works, and looks good.

Two problems I spotted...

1) Text in the notifications pulldown is black, not white like in the screenshot, so it's really hard to read.

2) The HTC icons are not showing up in the settings menu.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:
Thanks for checking it out...

On 1) Bummer... Not sure what to do about that though. The changes are to graphics only. The apk's don't mess with the font. Has your always been black? Mine has always been white.

On 2) I'll double check the apk and make sure I didn't screw something up. Although I swear I checked it.

Thanks Again
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gtg465x:
Hmm... after deleting user data the text in the notifications drawer is now white like it should be.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:

No, I mean it's fixed now after wiping user data.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] E_man5112:
Two requests. Can we get a metamorph? I'd help you if I knew how, but sadly I do not. A lot of us use cognition, and it doesn't like update.zip themes.

2, can we get some jpgs? Trying to watch that gif is hard! Lol.

Otherwise, I think it's worth a try. Would have liked a semi transparent notification drawer as well though. Minimalistic got me hooked on that.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:
I believe I can work up metamorphs. I used to do them, but I think they are a bit of a pain. I understand a cognition deal though. It might be better if I come up with a zip that'll work with clockwork? I'll attempt both.

You got it I'll upload the jpgs. I'd hate to hurt your eyes... LOL
[Captivate Themes and Apps] LinuxNewb:
Can we get a new mirror? Files are currently unavailable.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:
I've just check it.. it seems to be working at the moment. Megaupload does that once in a while. Usually if you give it a couple minutes it'll be back. Let me know if you are still having issues. I've added the metamorphs to the post, but the flash versions are too large.

EDIT: I'm having issues adding attachments for some reason... I'll need to try later. Hopefully its an "XDA system" thing.

Nope still unavailable after a few hours.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] guido.rosso:
Not working for me either...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Peaster111:
That sucks... I'll work on other options, hopefully. I can't host the flash files here and XDA is not cooperating with attachments today for the metamorphs. :mad:

Maybe there is something in the air today. :rolleyes:

Hi

i'm wondering if is it normal that charging through USB is quite slower than AC.

i mean, connected to PC it takes about 10 mins to charge 1% and when connected to wall connector, it takes like 2 mins to 1% (it's an example, didnt measure it exactly)

i searched in the forum and found nothing related to this.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Yes, less power longer charge.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockjock007:
Power is the same, current is different. 500mA from your computer 700mA from the charger.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UMID1993:
Okay so I just noticed, when the phone is off and your received calls.. When you power it on, it doesn't tell you that you've missed a call or gotten a text.. Maybe bc im using tmobile?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaseone:
I wouldn't expect it to tell you of a missed call unless they leave a voice mail and then you should get the notification about that but text messages should show up as normal when you switch the phone back on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UMID1993:
Oh that's dumb.. I usually got a message that says I missed calls on other phones.. Thanks though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swarlos86:
you should be getting a notification for a missed call on your notification bar. the symbol for it is a red check mark. Are you using a task killer? Task killers really screw up notifications on this phone. (even when used correctly)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaseone:
Even when the phone is off? If the display is off yeah but I wouldn't expect it for missed calls when the phone is actually off.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
if u mean screen off/sleep mode, u should get notifications. but if u say phone turned off completely, i won't expect it to show missed calls, unless the callers leaves some voicemail.

If u use ATK to auto kill tasks, make sure to exclude all system/phone related processes. That could be the culprit that auto clears ur notifications.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
I have not had any phone that ever showed me missed calls when the phone was off (powered off). If it is asleep, then you should have a notification in the notification bar - the phone has to ring (audibly or visually) - so if the phone is out of service area, you won't get a missed call alert either.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dawgpound6985:
As I promised, I disassembled my bricked i9000M. Hope this is of some use for people.

Note the GT-i9000T antenna connection on the bottom right in the 3rd picture:

The only i9000M part I saw...

So it seems that the phone is using a Triquint TQM6M9014 radio. I haven't been able to dive into the info I gathered from the pictures and the parts as I'm posting this just as I take them. Also, I blurred out some serial numbers I think might identify my phone but otherwise the pictures should have all the part numbers. Let me know what you guys think.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dawgpound6985:
So it looks like the phone's radio PowerAmps and Transmit modules are exactly the same as the GT-i9000 (European version). The difference seems to be in the duplexer. The Bell Vibrant is using a Triquint TQM616025, while the European i9000 uses a TriQuint TQM6M26028L. If I'm interpreting this right, the duplexer is what gives us the 2G/3G bands. From TriQuint's site:

TQM616025

http://www.triquint.com/prodserv/more_info/proddisp.aspx?prod_id=TQM616025

- Handset Tritium III PAD™ (PA-Duplexer) Module for UMTS Bands V&VI (Cellular band)

I can't seem to find info about the TQM6M26028L from TriQuint site but from http://www.phonewreck.com/2010/08/19/samsung-galaxy-s-teardown/ its a band VII duplexer.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
so that's what makes it a Hardware locked 850/1900/2100 vs. 900/1900/2100

then the AT&T model that runs on 1700/1900/2100 would have also another duplexer for the 3G radio
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dawgpound6985:
Yeah I think so. Everything else is interchangeable. Its just that TriQuint chips are on the same PCB as the NAND, bluetooth, GPS, basically everything important. lol. So if the NAND was working properly, then it could be transplanted into another international variant of the phone (i9000, i9000M, i9000T, i9000B) and get those bands without a problem.

I think you mean T-Mobile. But yeah, going under this assumption, then most probably.

What surprised me more was the i9000T markings. Unless Bell pulled a fast one, the only i9000M part was the antenna connector. Everything else had the i9000T label on it.

Hello everyone,

My current smart phone's screen has failed for a second time and i am looking purchase a new phone. I've done a bit of research and I have an eye on the HTC legend. it seems to be able to do everything i want it to do. I currently have a plan with FIDO. I read that there were some potential issues that may arise and i was hoping someone here would be able to clear it up for me.

I dont fully understand the nuances with frequencies, EDGE, 3G etc. Will the HTC Legend work properly on FIDO's network? will i be able to surf the internet and use my gps and text and talk without too much trouble. I expect a bit of an adaptation period as with any change (I have a Xperia X1i now)

Basically, can i just plug my sim card, put in my mms/internet settings and have the Legend work correct?
