[General Questions and Answers] glxy:
hello

I want to buy the samsung i9000 galaxy s. At the moment, there are NO i9000 available here in my country. (just the very expensive :D)

but the t-mobile branded are available.

my question is: where is the difference between branded t-mobile and the normal phone. is it JUST the start and end screen? how about the updates? do I have to get the updates from t-mobile? or do I get the updates from samsung.

if it is just the startup and end screen I'll buy branded one!

some other question: does samsung produce a lot of updates??

HTC desire is great. they send a lot of updates.... but I still prefer the i9000

thx!
[General Questions and Answers] heineken78:
Hardware is mostly the same. The main difference is price: Branded is cheaper. Its normally locked by "Brand"="Cell Operator", providing for less price making of usage in COp interests.

Unbranded is otherwise- unlocked and free to use. Normally lock information is stored in HARDSPL memory.

On google you will find all ways how to de-brand your device ;)
[General Questions and Answers] glxy:
In my case. The branded isn't locked by the cell operator. (because there is no such operator here in my country)

and the branded are more expensive. (but just 1-3%)

so that means. ONLY the startup and the shutdown screen are different?

And the updates are delivered by samsung? (So I don't have to wait for updates from the firm which have branded the phone..)

thanks

My girlfriend just got an iPhone 4 with Telus, but she was very disappointed that they didn't have the Nexus One. I told her she should get the desire if she wants the Nexus, as they are very similar.

One thing she likes about the iPhone 4 is that she can use her skype account (to make calls to other skype users AND phones (as she pays skype monthly for that service) with it.

I just wanted to ask if anyone knew if the Desire can do this as well, or not?
[Desire General] ksc6000:
Found out. Not available as of Sep 28, 2010. Disappointing.

Fring can make Skype calls to your Skype contacts. I dont know if you will see Skype for Android on a general market basis any time soon. It sucks, I know.
[Desire General] foxmeister:
In July, Fring disabled Skype support, and as far as i'm aware have not reenabled it.

I won't be a Skype customer for much longer if they don't release a proper voip solution for Android.

Currently they are more interested in carrier lockins, which is why you can only get VOIP Skype on Verizon. Some other operators, eg 3 in the UK, still offer a form of Skype Lite, but for most of us Skype is a closed door.

Afternoon boys and girls, can someone help me out with a cat of /proc/kallsyms on a Captivate based kernel?

JF6 or JH7 should be fine, I would prefer a stock kernel as I'm not sure which modified ones have what I'm looking for but as long as they are I897 based it might work. Just put something in your post saying atinm or unhelpful or whatever.

Basically if a Captivate radio sounds good on your phone I would love to hear from you.

adb shell

su

cd /proc

cat kallsyms > /sdcard/whateveryouwantotcallthefile

exit

exit

adb pull it or bluetooth or whatever you got, zip it and post it.

Bingo!

c0740600 T A1026SetFeature

A1026SetFeature=3 is bypass mode

Merlin, was I close?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Merlin_reloaded:
Haha, no I was way off. I was thinking you were looking for something related to the 3G radio.

You might have to explain what you're looking for. A1026 == http://www.audience.com/about/1026.php?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insaneturbo13:
so with this in bypass mode then its not filtering background noises? and im guessing if you enable it then there is potential for a better call quality?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMC_Sherpa:
Well, in a way it is related to the radio. Without the A1026 code the I897 modems sound like crap but other SGS ones work fine, with the code the Captivate modems work but everything else pukes.

I wondered across some code this morning in

./linux-2.6.29/sound/soc/codecs/A1026_i2c_drv.c

that sets up a bypass which I think the Vibrant is using but don't quote me on that. I wondered if the A1026SetFeature function was exposed in the kernel or if I would have to go higher up the chippy food chain to try and turn it off. Or write i2c commands but stuff like that gives me the willies.

Heck I'm not sure how useful it will be as it is but we have some smart folks prowling around here, I hope we can come up with something.

Sherpa
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMC_Sherpa:
There is some...interaction between the A1026 code and the modems, some want it some can't stand it. I don't know for sure what the deal is but if there is a way to shut it off then in theory the code can be kept in custom kernels and selectively turned off depending on which modem you are using. If only reality was as nice as some of the places in my head. *sigh*

That BYPASSMODE gets used all over the place anyway.

So, time to repurpose this thread into a what the heck is HSUPA breaking on anyway.

For future reference, here is the kallsyms from Xcaliburs 1.3 kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcaliburinhand:
Not sure reoriented kernel kallsyms will be all that helpful, kernel is built with wm8994_aries.c

Get your hands on a vibrant kallsyms dump yet, that may shed a little more light on what's going on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMC_Sherpa:
Your kernel is the one I've got on my phone at the moment so that's the one I had access to first :)

I wondered which version you tucked in there, I'll look into the changes between the aries and kepler wm8994 files. The Vibrant is pulling wm8994_def_behold3.h and the Captivate wm8994_def_kepler.h so there are differences there as well.

diff -w wm8994_def_kepler.h wm8994_def_behold3.h

1480c1480

< #define WM8994_IN1R_MIXINR_VOL 0x0010 /* IN1R_MIXINR_VOL */

---

> #define WM8994_IN1R_MIXINR_VOL 0x0000 /* IN1R_MIXINR_VOL */

but not many.

Hrm, the A1026/Audience garbage stuff in kepler. Ton of VOL levels are different.

*sigh* who ever made the comments needs to be hit over the head

<	msleep(5);	// 5ms delay

---

>	msleep(5);	// 20ms delay

I'm pretty sure thats 5ms on each.

864 lines in the diff output. I'll have to dig in and see what there is to see.

I'm running the 9/27 CM nightly but I don't want to have to wipe data and cache if I don't have to. I want to upgrade my current nightly Rom but I don't want to have to set up the phone again. Do I have to wipe to upgrade my nightly? Or is it safe to flash the new one over mine. I don't think it would really make a difference cause they are both cyanogenmod. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rabbiporkchop:
I would recommend a full wipe before installing the Rom. Otherwise some things might not work properly. I installed the Skyraider vanilla Rom without doing a full wipe, and there were a bunch of things that didn't work properly. I did a full wipe and reinstalled the same rom, and everything works perfectly.

Hi All,

I need some help with WIFI. I've set up my pc (connected via ethernet) to share internet via an Ad Hoc WIFI connection. The connection works but I have to manually connect to it every time. How do I make Android treat Ad Hoc networks same as Router based WIFI?

Thanks
[Droid X General] ses1er:
I can't answer your question but I can, however, provide you with a possible workaround.

If you're using Windows 7, download and install a free software called Connectify. It turns your PC into a full blown access point. Just used it during a trip to share a hotel ethernet connection and it worked like a charm.
[Droid X General] chaoslimits:
Thanks for replying. I heard about connectify but I use XP.

To my knowledge, Hydra does not have a kernel that will work with CM or any AOSP based ROM. The ones on hydra's website are definitely sense only.

I was just wondering.. I have ported the wildfire froyo rom to legend and touchpad is not working.. would it be possible to include the correct driver files directly into kernel for easier porting?

By the way: Which kernel version does the 2.2 ROM use on Wildfire?
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
2.6.32 something.

Android powah!
[Legend Android Development] whitetigerdk:
It's 2.10 something....
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
He's asking about the kernel version not ROM version. It's 2.6.32.21-g4b3e397 to be exact.
[Legend Android Development] ali ba:
I could easily port the Synaptics drivers to 2.6.32 if I only had the sources for 2.6.32. HTC didn't release them so far.

Too bad the GPL doesn't state "release sources within two weeks" or something like that.
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
For testing purpose he can use kernel from stock 2.1-update1...
[Legend Android Development] spiritson:
Its great that the new froyo kernel is 2.6.32 instead of 2.6.29

Here no ROM for Legend has 2.6.32 kernel which is official for froyo.. Dont know why?? Even Azure do not have 2.6.32...

Just Ali ba and other devs please update the kernel instead of stock htc 2.6.29 please
[Legend Android Development] pfak:
The GPL requires that you CAN MAKE AVAILABLE the source to any person you provide a binary to within a reasonable time frame.
[Legend Android Development] BlaY0:
@spiritson: You totally misunderstood. We can not use 2.6.32 kernel as we are tied to 2.6.29 because of WiFi driver our device is using.

[S740, S743 General] saoirse:
Hi, I recently (3months) bought a htcs740 through ebay. The seller maintained that he had cooked the device from 6.1 to 6.5. I found out later that it was done by 'frauhottentot'' or whatever his exact name is. As a non expert I took his word for it. Anyway, first thing was that the battery lasted max 5 hrs. So I ordered a new battery and the result was the same. I think I could live with this flaw for a while although for a 'modern' phone that's quite pathethic. The real thing that bugs me is the Key-Lock. No matter what parameters I twiddle with, the device always eventually turns itself off ergo: Black screen no reaction on any button, not even hard reset. There is light on the keys when you touch them and also around the nav. button. Imust ave taken the battery out of the phone a million times in the last three months. Today I installed a key lock cab. No change. And I also lifted the Windows App. Lock. No change. A nice phone but really f****** useless. Although I'm a non-expert I have the feeling that the home screen is interfering with the key pad lock. I would appreciate any help or ideas, saoirse

I use sony X2 when I push on right bottom on display and Display is drop. Can I fix it? How?
[XPERIA X2 General] Xareth:
Possible loose display board

If your display switches off completely by applying pressure to one spot then it shows a hardware fault and I recommend you get it checked by a technician.

If under warranty it must be at a Sony Ericsson repair centre.

I have had my display with similar problem because of water getting inside the phone. The water reacted with the metals on the display board and shorted the display lights.
[XPERIA X2 General] photonize:
Thank you so much. It under warranty. But I don't no when it happen. I think, because i put it in my pocket(pants) and have apply pressure to display . Is it in warranty?

About warranties

Well you have to check with the sony ericsson repair centre.

Do not tell them you put pressure on it in your pants, just tell them it happen suddenly and then yes it will be under warranty :p
