[Vibrant General] tjhart85:
They're the test builds that have been leaked from Samsung.

The I stands for September IIRC and the 1-6 is the build number that goes up sequentially.

It's broken down in a thread somewhere.

The reason they're so popular is that JI2 fixed the GPS issues & small differences have been noticed in each update since.
[Vibrant General] qreffie:
I apologize for making another "I'm mad at Samsung for..." thread, but after trying for the past hours to get the JI5 update and failing, I'm a bit angrier than I usually am and want to hurt Samsung somewhere where they will feel it while not going to extremes like trying to organize a class action suit.

Ever since the Galaxy S line came out they really haven't done much to support it except release 3 buggy updates for three of the phones and completely ignore the one that's been out in the States for the longest (until the "made you look" event of today), yet they're so eager to show off that Galaxy Tab that they want everyone to be interested in and buy next month. I suggest simply spreading the word to everyone that no one should but that thing until they at least get their house in order and get the Galaxy S line up to the basic functionality they should have had out of the box. Spread the word that they apparently can't support the products they release and that nobody should touch those things until they can prove they are going to stand behind the products they want us to spend our hard earned money on.

Before some of you start flaming me, I do very well know this is a forum for people who mod their phones and have no intention of staying stock. I mod my phones too. Even with the fixes I've flashed I still have issues with GPS and the phone resetting. I appreciate everything the community has done to help make these phones better and I whole heartedly thank them for doing so, but at the same time there's a whole company with a division of people getting paid to do this that hasn't been able to supply us with one good fix after nearly 3 months time. It's time we should make every potential customer aware of that.
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
I'm boycotting the U.S. release of the Galaxy Tab, but only because I find the fact that all 4 U.S. carriers disabling the phone functions of the thing (the international version won't have this limitation) as a hugely retarded move.

I'm not interested in carrying around 2 huge slabs-o-touchscreen all the darn time. If I were I'd be an iDiot and worship Steve Jobs. :P
[Vibrant General] dabezt1:
That's understandable, personally I could care less about being able to make calls on tablet. It's not like you would be able to take calls on both your cell phone and the tablet. And I sure wouldn't care for having another phone number.

I love my iPad btw!
[Vibrant General] hurrpancakes:
Why would you carry it around if you can't use it as a phone?

Sent using my Vibrant with the Tapatalk app
[Vibrant General] vamp6x6x6x:
To be honest I am not surprised they are disabling the calling feature. In fact I would be surprised if they didn't.

I mean I for one wouldn't want to stop using my vibrant to use that giant tablet.

Also no matter what it will have wifi so it can be more like a laptop on the go and playing games on it will be awesome from the looks of it.
[Vibrant General] natecglenn:
Well if they are just disabling the feature then that means the hardware to make calls is still built in so someone could root it and make calls anyway. But I'm still not getting one cause it'll be just like my phone. Tablets are a median of a phone and a notebook but nowadays the Ipad is the best out.
[Vibrant General] MV10:
Can't say I'm feeling pouty and petulant about Samsung in general, but I crossed four Tabs off my Xmas list when they announced the phone functionality was disabled.

As for the frequent comments about the Tab being too large to use as a phone, I use my phone as a speakerphone most of the time, and Bluetooth headsets put the final nail in the coffin for that argument.
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
I really doubt the S Tab will sell much anyway.

Smaller screen than the iPad, lower resolution, considerably worse battery life, for almost the same price....

Plus, given our experience with Samsung, it will probably not be upgraded to Gingerbread, which according to Google is the first version of Android actually meant for tablets.

Who in their right mind will buy the Tab?
[Vibrant General] kizer:
What made me mad is they have more accessories slated for that thing than the very phones they already have out.

Docks, keyboards and all kinds of goodies. Oh yeah they all plug into the bottom of the Tab not the top like our retarded phones. :mad:
[Vibrant General] masterotaku:
Exactly!

Since it's functionally crippled compared to it's European counterpart I don't plan on carrying one around.

It's an interesting device, and will probably have a modicum of success, but the deliberate lockdown of an existing feature is one that makes me uninterested in it.

Given that it's carrier unsubsidized pricing internationally is likely going to make it more expensive than the iPad, if I were to develop an interest in an Android tablet/mid that didn't support phone functions, I'd just SPEND LESS MONEY on a comparable 7" tablet that doesn't have phone functions. There are several...
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
Huge flaw with Samsung tablet, not sure if mentioned

At the moment pretty much every App available doesn't even support the tablets 1024x600 resolution so they will be to small for the screen or will stretch and look like crap.
[Vibrant General] junkdruggler:
I can make everything in an app support that higher res, and I font even consider myself a dev... More of a file mover.. But there are tutorials and some apps are already compatible...

Remember when donut and froyo came out not all apps were compatible.. Some apps dont work on donut now...
[Vibrant General] DKYang:
WTF does this have to do with the Vibrant? Oh, can all of you stop blaming everything on Samsung? It seems like only half the people on this forum has sense and understands that T-Mobile makes the final call on updates.
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
Dude, you are drawn to these threads like a fly is to sh!t!

T-Mobile has its problems, but what about the rest of the companies carrying the Galaxy S? Have any released Froyo, or successful compass fixes?

No? Must be a worldwide carrier conspiracy to make Samsung look bad, by delaying fixes and OS upgrades.....

No, Samsung's track records with product support just sucks. That's why some are pissed.
[Vibrant General] KerryG:
Wait a second, let me get this straight. You are upset because an unofficial, probably beta quality firmware wasn't available properly through a piece of software that hasn't been released to the US market yet?
[Vibrant General] Col.Kernel:
Nice troll, since I don't believe you are actually as stupid as you're trying to get us to believe.

No, we're all pissed off about Samsung's crappy support. I bought a phone with a GPS built in. I can't use my GPS because it doesn't work.

A little fact which has been repeatedly explained to you. So either you choose to ignore it so you can troll more, or you have major issues with reading comprehension, take your pick.

And, as I said elsewhere, no one forced you to bring your fanboi self into this thread.
[Vibrant General] stillblood:
I'll hold out for MOTO or HTC
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
That's great, let's organize a boycott of something that 99.9% of people have no plan to purchase in the first place. In other words, we're going to have to seek out people who want to buy the Tab and then dissuade them. Personally, I think I won't.
[Vibrant General] phillipxenxciel:
psshh, who is gonna buy that over sized phone anyway, too big for been a phone, too small for been a tablet
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Personally I think that 7" is the perfect size for me. One reason I've held off from the iPad is that it's too big and too heavy. It's a great device for the home, but I'd never cart one about day-to-day. 7" is just right to fit into a small camera bag /satchel. I also think it's the right size for women, since they carry purses.

However, there's no way I'm going to buy the Tab or any other first gen device. I'll wait a year or two until the tech is mature.
[Vibrant General] vamp6x6x6x:
Actually word has it that it isn't a giant phone anymore for the US carriers are disabling the calling feature, and as for the size I think it is just right; I mean it is after called a tablet; as in a tablet of paper size...Actually if it was any bigger you may as well buy a laptop.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
Wow someone with the screen name MacGuy singing the praise of the ipad over any other tablet. How can you comment on battery life when its not even out? The Tabs screen is actually widescreen so you can you can watch movies and browse the web far better. Oh and speaking of web, hey look at that Flash 10.1 support. Oh yeah and it has two cameras on it too. The Tab is going to be far better than the ipad.
[Vibrant General] r3ferrei:
Far better is one thing, but it also has to be successful too so that Tab owner's arnt relegated to using only standard apps that are just stretched to fit the screen. With this being the only official tablet to support market, it has to single handedly make a case for android tablets so that devs can jump on board and design their apps to take advantage of the larger screen. And considering the price this is apparently going to cost according to rumors, I don't think its going to be successful.

Though I would love to get one because the form factor is fantastic. But not until I see developers take advantage of the hardware.
[Vibrant General] MacGuy2006:
Yours is a rather silly reasoning.

I do like Macs, but I've used Palm, WM, iOS and now Android for my phones.

I have been waiting for a good Android tablet, and I am sure it will come, but the Samsung Tab is not it.

The battery numbers published by Samsung claim 7 hours, but judging by my experience with the Galaxy S and the Vibrant, it will be less. The iPad generally surpasses its claimed 10 hours.

The screen is 16x9, which is generally a cheaper cut than 4x3, and it is too narrow for ebooks or most websites. If it was a larger size it would matter less, but at 7" it is a problem for comfortable browsing.

Flash, yeah. On the other hand, it was because I wanted Flash that I dumped my iPhone and bought the Galaxy S more than three months ago, and I still don't have Flash on it....
[Vibrant General] smutek:
I know people write LOL at the drop of a dime these days, but I literally LOL'd to the point that I snorted and almost spit soda all over my desk.

Thanks for a good laugh!

Just messing around. I hear Samsung is rushing to get these things onto the market before the holiday shopping season, so considering my overall experience with the Vibrant that makes me think it should be pretty awesome. I kind of dig having zero support and vague ****ty promises from the manufacturer.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dmessayons:
Dropped htc tp2 in water. The phone shows tmobile startup screen but then hangs. I can use volume down and power to get to bootloader and plug into computer via usb. The usb is recognized at the bottom of the bootloader screen and on windows xp, but I can't sync. I can't tell that the phone is connected through explorer either.

Can anyone help me get past this screen?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
If you powered up too soon (it takes days to dry out a device), it is likely you have fried some of the internal components. There are some topics that discuss how to dry out the device, but you have to do that BEFORE you power back on.

I would suggest that you check out some of those topics and then try and flash a new ROM. Good luck.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dmessayons:
Thanks. I was afraid of that.

Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm ignorant as far as the hardware (and software for that matter) goes. Is there separate memory for the boot sequence and the OS? Can I boot off of the SD card?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] derdepp:
You can flash from the SD Card, but there is no way of booting your old system from SD. I would follow stevedebis advice: dry, and if it doesnt boot, flash
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SpinalRemains:
I dropped my phone on Sunday and had the exact same issue as you. Mine did not get wet though, but it was freezing on the boot screen. I tried many SR to no avail. Eventually I just did a HR and now all is fine.

Seeing as yours was wet, it may be that it needed to dry 100 percent. I have noticed that the TP2 freaks out when moisture gets into it, but it actually reverts back to normal when gone with no ill effects. I would suggest just doing a hard reset. In the future if your phone is wet, just turn it off and let it dry 100 percent with battery out and you should be ok. TP2 has turned out to be one really resilient phone for me (knocks on wood). This thing is the best built phone I have ever owned. Like a tank.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bananapants:
Is there anyway I can do the whole android installation process without using usb? Not sure why but I keep getting "usb device not recognized". I installed activesync and windows mobile device center but no luck.

I do have a bluetooth connection and have access to the sd card.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheInVisibleGoD:
By a card reader perhaps... :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] polo735:
While in windows mobile, you need to have your device in mass storage or disk drive mode to access the sd via usb. Your issue sounds like a usb driver issue with your computer.

An alternative is to put your microSD into a sd adapter. You can then place the sd into a multi-card reader or sd to usb adapter.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bananapants:
So if I have access to my sd card where I can put and take out files, then it would be possible? But the problem is not being able to do a HSPL3, right? Thanks all
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] creed:
I seriously think someone needs to read the idiots guide to installing android!

You don't need the USB at all to install android on the HD2. The only reason you'd need USB is to change radios or the base Winmo ROM.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bananapants:
But isn't changing the radio/roms essential in the process of getting android on this phone? I am reading one set of instructions on how to get android and it talks about getting the 2.10 shipped rom and then HSPL3. So, yeah I'm trying to follow the instructions.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] krat0s123:
read this it will tell you exactly how you do it.. it's a requirement that you have a way of transferring data to your microSD card.. Either by a USB cable (through winmo) or a memory card reader.. It would be nice if you can have both, as once you start playing around with different android builds, kernel, radio version etc., you will find it much easier with both..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] trmacdonal:
If you have a US T-Mobile HD2 then you probably need to change the radio and winmo rom or you will likely have the robot voice problem. You can install android first if you want to see what it is like. If you put the android folder on your SD card and boot into android and there is no robot voice problem, you are good. Might as well try it, you might not need a new HSPL and winmo rom. If android won't boot due to your radio, 2.07 and below I think, then you have to update your radio. Try reading the flashing guides again and going step by step to double check that you aren't skipping anything.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ahahahcrap:
Hello I am having a problem with my HTC HD2. I recently changed it over to Android, which i totally love. Except the SOD's! it's been driving me crazy! so i finally decided to change the radio on my device to try and stop the SOD's. The SOD's finally stopped after changing my radio BUT for some reason the battery won't charge. The battery is now down to 10%. I've tried charging the HTC HD2 while in windows mobile. but when i plug it in the battery says 100% at the top and when i actually look at the battery in notifications, it tells me the "true" battery which is around 10%. When i'm on android and charging the phone, it tells me the true battery percentage but doesn't charge also. I was just about to change the radio, to see if this was the problem but i cant since i don't have 50% battery. Is there any suggestions that could/would help? any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[Nexus One General] Gigamaster89:
Someone is selling one for $300. It comes with everything including a case, extra battery, and charger. The only problem? There is a scuff on the top left corner, both on the chrome and on the black part of the LCD.

What do you guys say? Yay or nay?

My main device right now is a BB9700, solely for the UMA. I also have a HD2 and a new Vibrant I'm trying to get rid of (unless the later gets 2.2 ASAP).
[Nexus One General] tim1987:
I would say

1) make sure the power/lock button works reliably and feels solid

2) while charging, turn on gps navigation, and then start watching some flash videos in the browser in warm weather and make sure the thing doesn't reboot on its own from overheating.

3) when you boot it, does it show an icon of a padlock opened? if so this means the bootloader is unlocked, though not necessarily a bad thing, could spell trouble getting it serviced under warranty.
[Nexus One General] Gigamaster89:
The phone is supposedly in great condition and I doubt it's under warranty anymore. Is #2 a serious hardware deffect?
[Nexus One General] nDrg:
All electrical items should have at least one year warranty so there should be a few months left :)
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Its a good price for a great phone, especially if youre a developer.

The metal scuff wont be visible if you use a case.

Go with what #2 said. The second point is an extreme stress test. I'm pretty sure my phone in its case would reboot if the room temperature is above 100F.
[Nexus One General] mixxy:
i would buy it. good price and the scuff shouldnt be a big deal unless u have ocd with scratches like me hehe.

EDIT: one thing to check for also is screen burn. didn't think about it when i bought it, everything looked peachy. but later i noticed a pretty bad screen burn where the status bar always is at the top of the screen. doesn't bother me since it doesn't really affect anything, but keep your eyes peeled since it's pretty ubiquitous on amoled displays.
[Nexus One General] KROMO50:
Yes they do my brothers bought one off Craigslist and his replace it
[Nexus One General] Gigamaster89:
I think I might take it just for this alone since it gives me a peace of mind.

probably in their gmail inbox, assuming they didn't delete it.
