[Captivate General] Whipon:
Better virtual keypad

I use yongzh emulators a lot, for example Gensoid, and I notice the control experience with froyo had improved a lot. Now the virtual keypad its much more accurate than with eclair.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Unlike 2.1 ROMs, now you can:

* Add more than 2 Exchange accounts

* Hotmail Exchange ActiveSync works correctly now (my main problem is contact won't sync correctly in 2.1).

The removal of sync schedule is a disappointment. Now I'll be getting tons of email notifications at night.
[Captivate General] sevenvt:
Not proven to be a mem issue just because it closes. Nor does increased virtual memory mean that programs will run faster. They only need so much... this isn't windows. Programs in background and visible use memory but others are held in men but would be used for voice. .. wouldn't shut down an active task unless you had more than those running.

http://mobworld.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/memory-management-in-android/

If you use a task killer. It probably did it. If you don't... then its still probably not a memory issue. 8mb for dialer plus phone wont kill your task.

No UA String option... this allows you to change the browser agent from android to ie, firefox or other devices....

Wanted to test out the flash player with some good old porn sites.. but can't get to the actual websites.. only their mobile versions.
[Captivate General] A.VOID:
GPS is God awful now. It's not better at all.

People flash a new rom and get a lock quickly and think life is good.

Until you use it while driving ... don't call it improved. It's worse than JH7 by far.
[Captivate General] vietn95:
"nook" app and "task management" :) and new music detail layout
[Captivate General] emuneee:
Thats weird, its better for me...not perfect though, but better tracking me in my car than JH7 was.
[Captivate General] chun8143:
my reception is not as good as it used to be. my speedtest went from an average of 1750k-2500k to 900k.
[Captivate General] mchimney:
There seems to be a new option in the camera, It looks like a timer was added.

There is also a Firmware Check option in the camera settings now
[Captivate General] mchimney:
When in the "Messaging App Settings", you can uncheck delete old messages, and it will no longer spam you everytime you open the messaging app to enable it

You can now pinch and zoom within the gallery app
[Captivate General] shamelin73:
Mine is not working and I have the same BT as you
[Captivate General] Tinyboss:
It seems like there has been some improvement to the compass. Google Sky Map is much better...if you quickly tilt the phone up/down it still registers some incorrect left/right motion, but if you move fairly slow it's entirely usable now.
[Captivate General] mchimney:
You can no longer "link" contacts, but you can "join" them
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
I guess they felt like they hadn't ripped off the iphone's ui enough. Good thing I actually really like the copy and paste implementation on the iphone.
[Captivate General] mchimney:
The new feeds and update widget now shows if someone is commenting on someone elses post, rather than it looking like a random statement
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
Long drag on the TouchWiz lockscreen seems to be apparent, versus the short drag on 2.1, helps to avoid unnecessary unlock drags.
[Captivate General] Shammyh:
Am I crazy, or does the minimum brightness seem lower too?
[Captivate General] pingpongboss:
Samsung Captivate with Froyo (Android 2.2)
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Another new nugget - bookmarks in video;

Also, I am not sure if 2.1 had this, but there appears NO way to turn off geotagging in the camera app - if even agps is on, the gps icon pops up with camera open. It would be nice to keep GPS on, but tell camera not to use it.
[Captivate General] cachookaman:
seems like you cant geotag photos anymore. i dont see the option anywhere in the camera app.
[Captivate General] mchimney:
I believe geotagging is auto enabled when the GPS is on. Mine seems to geotag fine, but you're right there is no more "gps" option in the settings.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Because it is on all the time. Notice the satellite icon?
[Captivate General] smokestack76:
I had a few shutdowns on its own. I always keep my phone on and a few times when i grab it its shutoff. Im rooted and sideloading is on. Only other mod is lcd density setting. Kinda strange.
[Captivate General] illestChronicle:
Which video?
[Captivate General] ranova:
good video man.
[Captivate General] ronandi:
Google Talk app no longer has a dark theme. It's white.

If anyone figures out how to change it back, that'd be awesome.
[Captivate General] Kizzmiazz:
First of all what are you using to see your free memory. If you open the built in task manager in your apps or hold down the home button to pull up your multi task window hit the new task manager at the bottom. Then at the top ram management. 2.1 my phones memory was 50-120 froyo 190-230 free at all times. I'm sure that some of the old ways we checked that stuff before are not gonna be as accurate.

Also side note I used to be an advanced task killer addict, DG showed me a while back that task killers do more harm than good. Plus task killers from the market do not work with froyo, forgot the reason but froyo takes care of it pretty good.

[Captivate General] schtuka:
you can change your purchased, prepackaged font without rebooting now via settings/display.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
When I use the stock task manager, I always get somewhere around 200/305 which means 200MB used out of 305MB total. I don't know how you can get 190 -230 MB free. Task Manager does not report free memory but rather memory used.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
I have no mods - JI7 stock and I have not had a single shutdown.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Sounds like your phone has the hardware defect that causes random shutdowns (there are multiple dedicated threads dealing with this problem). The only solution so far is to exchange the phone.
[Captivate General] ranova:
- Google Talk was updated and now syncs with what was said on the computer - very useful when you want to continue a convo

- Wifi Tether and USB tether toggles now work (tested with Extended Controls)
[Captivate General] pingpongboss:
AWESOME! Always wanted this.
[Captivate General] patrick_spd4u:
you can actually pinch AND pan

Add : you can actually pinch AND pan, meaning, you can pan with two fingers and not just one. This means that you don't have to lift your two fingers after zooming to position the page. (words copied from pocketnow.com)

But, it only works in Gallery app, it doesn't work on the default Browser or 3rd party browser (I'm using Dolphin Browser).
[Captivate General] Raleran:
Here's a couple changes I've found that I'm extremely happy about:

- Contacts app show the google groups

- Corporate (exchange) accounts allow you to group by conversation

- Streaming (iheartradio) now works without stuttering.
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
This isn't new, the toggle has always been there since JF6.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
There is no such firmware as JH6 for Captivate. If you mean JF6, I don't remember there is an option for auto-brightness in Power control. You can only click through different levels of brightness. Then again, I haven't used JF6 for two months now so I maybe wrong and auto-brightness doesn't work very well in JF6 anyway.
[Captivate General] Joe1981AL:
Sure he meant jf6, but it is not in power control widget, but only in display settings on jf6.

Can you still swipe across the notification bar (left/right) to change brightness when auto is turned off?
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Unfortunately, no, you can't do that anymore.
[Captivate General] carterman:
Not sure if anyone mentioned this one, but, the 5.1ch button in the music player now works when connected via bluetooth. It used to complain that there were no headphones.
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
Yeah, I meant JF6. Was in a bit of a rush when typing.

Now I see what it is, instead of there just being a sun icon when switch the brightness settings you see an "A" for the auto brightness, I remember the feature was present but you didn't see the "A".
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
Haven't seen that yet, will have to try when I do have a bluetooth audio device.
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
It works, but it is quite unresponsive most of the time with JI6 now.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Thanks. Now I see what's happening. Simply swipe it won't work. You have to tap and hold on the notification bar then swipe. Works 100% for me.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
I can confirm it works with my BT headset that supports A2DP.

Also a new feature of fix:

In 2.1 ROMs, when you plugin headset or audio cable to your car and play music or video from the players, incoming call audio get routed to the headset or car speakers. In 2.2, incoming calls stays on the phone.
[Captivate General] phishie:
Had anyone tested whether Samsung apps are still restricted when battery life is below 15%? I know this happened with Samsung camera and media apps on 2.1.
[Captivate General] USHERROB:
Also the Contacts settings has more options I believe, to better support sync of accounts
[Captivate General] ranova:
yep, tap and hold on the notification bar until you see the little notification pane disappear, then you can slide to change brightness. A welcome change to prevent accidental brightness changes.

The typical casual phone user will never find this out heh
[Captivate General] mfriedman79:
also looks like Advanced settings are gone in the email app. so in addition to no peak time for sync there are no options for Out of Office anymore. Hopefully this is just an early build with the mail app. I really wish someone would tell them to get rid of that horrible bar of folders on the top. Such a pain to find the folder I need. PLus options to sync more than inbox would have been nice.

oh, and looks like PIN lock with exchange isn't recognizing lock timeout options and forces PIN unlock everytime.
[Captivate General] ranova:
It is now set at 10%.
[Captivate General] xfernand:
Media scan gives you an % complete. Don't remember that on 2.1.
[Captivate General] alfredtv:
I noticed the ability to change the brightness when you scroll to the left or right on the top bar is gone.

Any idea on how to get that back?
[Captivate General] ranova:
mentioned earlier:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8456576&postcount=89
[Captivate General] phishie:
Boooo it shouldn't exist at all.
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
Thanks for the tip, it seems to work that way. It takes about a sec to to tap and hold, then you can glide your finger.
[Captivate General] pingpongboss:
Nice, wish they made it so that it would switch out of Auto brightness mode when you did that.
[Captivate General] cocchiararo:
can anyone tell me what version is the swype keyboard from this build ?

i was unable to find it to confirm that (and i don't have a captivate to install it :P )
[Captivate General] luisfer691:
How do I

"Pinch to see a overview of homescreens and move a screen to the recycling bin to remove"
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
It would be found with the default launcher being TouchWiz and you should have the ability to move the screens around as well.
[Captivate General] DJNgoma:
The current version is 2.4.44.10814
[Captivate General] cocchiararo:
really ? this rom comes with a version slightly "older" than the "open" beta ? (2.4.44.10912)

AtrackDog says version 2.6.47.11856 is doing rounds now tho, i thought it was from this rom :(
[Captivate General] gmachine:
Pinch to zoom while using the camera..
[Captivate General] Zero4:
Thank you for pointing this out...I was somewhat disappointed that a zoom wasn't included.
[Captivate General] razorjaw:
you'd be my best friend if i could get the swype update :)
[Captivate General] sstrawsb:
How are you guys backing up yours apps and everything else before wiping the phone clean? Does the ROM Manager back up everything?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XdaNonDeveloper:
I can't seem to UN root my phone. In the app it DOES say your device is UNrooted but then apps like root explorer and setCPU still function. So I re rooted ( it didn't really UN root so tech. I really didn't re root) jus to see super user app and nothing shows up in the app permissions. WTF is going on. Also when I install root applications super user does not even pop up asking for permissions. I recently installed busy box so I can get titanium to work..titanium hangs on the loading screen but this only started to happen after I tried UN rooting.

I used this app to root my phone so it should UN root it.

I guess its okay but will this prevent me from updating to froyo when the update is launched.

devs please reply.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XdaNonDeveloper:
Oh and since titanium does not load I can't unfreeze apps I had frozen.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] HamNCheese:
Be weary of sellers on Amazon with bad descriptions.

I bought the following two products from PC Micro Store (fulfilled by Amazon):

ASIN: B002C12760 and B002B9KRYM

Both description are "for T-Mobile G2 with Google Phone", and since the products were added to Amazon on Sept 30, I figured I'd give them a shot.

Of course, these are products for the Hero, not the G2 (which they fail to mention anywhere in the description.)

There is another reseller for OEM T-mobile hard cases on there, but they do not qualify for Prime shipping. I'm only out $10 (which I'll RMA anyway) - just be careful if buying from Amazon.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] osupra:
thanks for the heads up
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Snuggl3s:
Bummer man. Thx for the heads up though =)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Roadmasta01:
The cut outs in the back of that look similar to the back of the original MyTouch, it is probably the typical naming and bad description of micro 3rd party resellers.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] eppyk:
I'd hate to play devil's advocate, but wasnt the the hero branded as the "g2" on a few european carriers? I seem to remember seeing box art for that years ago.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] muminisko:
Exactly - for example Era G2 in Poland
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] FakeFakerson:
Do NOT buy the iPhone case from Monoprice.com and try to fit your G2 inside of it. I almost broke my phone when I forced it into this case. The little tab at the top pushed itself inbetween the screen and keyboard and was separating it while in the closed position :(

Fortunately I was able to get it off without damaging my phone, however it was really hard to get off and I was ****ting myself when trying to get it off.

TLDR: DON'T TRY TO FIT YOUR G2 IN A FORM-FITTING IPHONE CASE! (even though they're similar in size)
[General Questions and Answers] pupakota:
I realized, in my emulators research, that Gizmondo, which operates wince 4.x has some interesting apps.

My question is simple:

can anyone share any information about ANY way of making these launchable on WM6.x(qvga)?

I am not sure, if it's possible, but gut-feeling tells me so.

So is it?

I can imagine, it may be similar to making apps from WM launchable on wince(in reverse), but i did not have any progress with fiddling with dlls, etc etc so far..

actually, snes, amiga, and c64 emulators seems to be "launchable", but unrecognizedg problem prevents it from being usable(blackcreen effect, or silent quits), but programs are starting(generally).

i tried replacing dlls like sdl.dll image_sdl.dll, etc for ppc versions, but it had zero visible behaviour influence(same effects).

What else could i do?

Second question: how hard it could be to port gizmondo app from full sources to ppc(i mean even simple compilation launchable as native ppc app, first)?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Armazia:
Hello,

The sensitivity of my Touch Pro is kinda weird. At the left, right, upper and down side of the screen it has a less sensitivity then in the midle, I have found this out by drawing in "Notes", I have to press harder at the sides. Is this problem known for anybody out here? I have been using several roms and Radio, but this doesn't seem to fix it. Thanks for reading.

Yours faithfully,
