I just wanted to let everyone know that the T-mobile OTA update JI6 will not unroot the Samsung Vibrant. I was running the Stock Rom rooted and I uninstalled OCLF just prior to update.

I just got my Desire last week :) and now I looking a case.

There's alot of cases out there and it's hard to make decision on which to purchase.

I'm looking for user feedback/comments/experience on

Casemate Barely There

I have one and it's great. All the others just look bulky. This is the best compromise but don't expect it to do anything more than prevent scratching. You might want to try the Otterbox if you want shock protection.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zeoran:
Before you flame me to death, I have searched the forums high and low for over an hour on this, but I can't find anyting.

I have a Tilt 2, recently installed the latest Nrgy rom and love it, but I would like to put back a few of the original AT&T apps that came with their rom.

Is there a thread somewhere or a website that contains a list of the originally installed apps and a way to download them? Things like the AT&T Navigator...I didn't use it for mapping, because I didn't want to pay them $10/month, but I did use it for a yellow pages. There were a few other handy apps I'd like to have back.

Any help is appreciated.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] SilverLynx:
Try using Google maps or Bing which have similar Yellow Pagey-ish search functions with the added benefits of free GPS mapping and Directions.

Otherwise go here: http://ota.telenav.com/ and select AT&T as your carrier, and they you can download
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FFJASON1:
I am trying to figure out how to backup my Samsung media player play list. Every time I flash a new ROM I loose my custom play list and have to redo it which is quite the pain.

I have tried creating a play list in Windows media player and syncing it to the phone along with my music. It copies over the play list file but media player does not recognize it. And I can not manually open the file.

I have also tried backing up the [PLAYLIST] Media Storage 21. and 2.2 in titanium backup. When restored it does not bring back the custom play list that I created.

I also poked around the file system and cant seem to find where Samsung stores the play list files at. Hoping that maybe someone else has had luck figuring this out. I have had this problem with stock, and cognition 1 and 2.2 ROM's.

Thanks in advance,

I haven't used it, but doubleTwist is something I recommended you look into.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphadog00:
I posted in one of the captivate forums - the playlists are stored in one of the databases - all music and media is listed in the data base and each playlist is stored in a table in the DB file.

The media scanner builds the DB and it includes the path to all the media. It should be possible to right a db script to build your own playlist or recreate one, but i have not had the time to look into it.

As for doubletwist - i found it very buggy, and more invasive then iTunes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FFJASON1:
Thanks for the suggestion on double twist. I have read a little about it but was hoping to avoid a third party solution. I really like the native Samsung media player if I could only backup the play list.

I'll see if and how double twist works out. Does anyone know how to write a app / script to backup the play list file? That is way beyond my skills.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ympbkk:
installed adb and fastboot inorder to mod a HTC Dream,

adb devices gives a response when I use it,

when I power into the fastboot and connect the phone

fastboot devices gives nothing, just returns to prompt, no error messages, but no devices listed

running fastboot gives the command list

can I assume fastboot is running correctly even though it doesn't give me a device list?

hmmm, no replies, maybe I'm the only one who doesn't know this,

but, how can I check that fastboot is actually connecting to the phone, and if it should show devices and doesn't how can I check whats wrong?

Hey guys, i recently updated Launcher Pro to the latest version and now my phone is terribly laggy and nearly unusable. i switched to Sense just to see and sure enough, sense is smooth with no lag. i switched back to LP and it takes 15-20 seconds between menu pages, and 15-30 for apps to open. does anyone know if it's possible to revert back to an older version of launcher pro??
[EVO 4G General] Success100:
are you using setcpu? If so, disable it, and reboot and try launcherpro again. I used to have a ton of problems using launcherpro+overclocking with setcpu. Turned off overclocking..and voila, no more problems with LP

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokalper:
I was wondering if it is possible to emulate an external cd drive with the captivate. Essentially i would use an iso image from the sd card and boot servers/pc's with the phone rather than carryin an external cd drive and cd's. Any idea if this is possible?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrettS:
I'm not sure this is the right place for this post, but if I understand what you're trying to do then I think the answer is that you can probably do what you want. I don't think there's any way to mount an ISO image on the SD card and make it look like a CDROM, but most newer PC's will allow you to boot off of a USB flash (or hard) drive. Since the Captivate can appear to the PC as a flash drive you should be able to put a bootable image on it and boot your PC that way. You can probably even set up some sort of boot manager to be able to select different OS's if you needed more than one.

Just google how to boot whatever OS you want from a flash drive and follow the instructions using the captivate as the flash drive. I've never tried it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halo45121:
First off, I don't believe this relates to development.

Second, I've had to boot several netbooks from USB drives before. The easiest way that I have done it, is to download the program called UNetbootin. Run that, select the .iso, select the drive, and it does all of the work for you. I'm not sure if it would with a Captivate, but its worth a shot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokalper:
I know i can boot via usb drives, but depending on the type of disc i want to boot it gets complicated and i need more than one usb drive or i have to fashion a multiboot usb flash drive.

Either way its not 100% and its not as easy as selecting a new iso you download to boot from. When troubleshooting servers and such its handy to have bootable cd media.

I would assume there should be a way to emulate other devices with an android, all dependant of course on the usb controller. I didnt want to dig too far to find out, but if any one knows if it is possible it might be worth it for me to code it out.

I dont see why it would not relate to development as it is a development related question.

[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I've used the app where for a while now. I was wondering if any of you could suggest any excellent alternatives to this kind of program? I recently installed poynt when I couldn't find where in the market. Later I found where in the sprint section of the market. I played around with both and of course neither are perfect and have their shortcomings. I don't like how more apps are now wanting to know too much about you or are gathering info behind your back and using it for marketing or for other companies. It's getting more difficult to find apps that aren't sneaky like that. I was very surprised in an article I've read recently talking about some really popular apps are putting their noses in areas of your phone and using that info. I remember astrid and the weather channel and coupons were a few that I can remember that the article said are not behaving themselves.

I know that as time progresses and technology gets better, that some of the things we preferred and took for granted are being splayed out on the internet for anyone who knows where to look to find it. :(

I have been around these forums a while flashed more than my share of roms. I want stock Rom but no bloatware. I rooted it but now what I still have ATT apps on it. How do you actually remove them.

[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
Haven't considered searching or reading stickies or existing threads have you?
[HTC Aria General] SoCalHTCFuze:
You might look into this ROM - its basicly what you have but pre stripped of the ATT apps, a few needed apps and a few well needed ui tweaks. Highly reccomend it and it works with the Android Market showing all apps:

[HTC Aria General] bkmo:
Just load the latest liberated rom from recovery. It is stock with the crap removed.
[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
No I just want to remove bloatware, I know that Rom is stock LIKE but still has some issues. I have flashed every HTC phone I have ever owned and there is a endless cycle it seems like every cook keeps sending out new version fixing what was missing in the last release. And no matter how perfect their Rom is there is always something glitchy or something doesn't work. So with this phone atleast until I familiarize myself wit the android OS I want to stay stock.
[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
Why am I not getting alerts when someone replies.
[HTC Aria General] ocswing:
First, you're wrong about that ROM. It may be semantics, but that ROM is stock meaning it's taken the stock ROM (kernel) and the additions are merely the most commonly requested features, e.g. removal of bloatware, ability to sideload, etc.

Second, for just removing apps go here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735255 And while you might be an Android noob the rules of the xda forums are the same regardless of OS. Search before asking, and don't create new threads unnecessarily. If you have any questions about that specific process reply in that thread.
[HTC Aria General] SoCalHTCFuze:
And a note specific to the rom I listed, as I came from WM too, when you update to the newer release of the rom you can opt to keep the phone as is (apps, files, etc). So its not like you are starting from scratch each time you update. I am on the R012 latest realease with ZERO issues so far and I am an avid user of all the features. Yes rooting your phone and updating the rom is harder than a WM executable... the first time. Every update after that is simply a reboot, flash on the phone and finish booting, much easier!
[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
you mean you dont have to set everything back up again.....
[HTC Aria General] SoCalHTCFuze:
Some you do, some you dont. I just updated my liberated build R006 to R012 and at first thought the update didnt take. But isntead, it updated the core without loosing everything. So awesome, every WM rom update wiped my phone out, truly sucked. Long live Android!
[HTC Aria General] tbone22:
I went ahead and flashed the liberated Rom and it seems to be fine I had some problemswith my contacts but worked it out. The only thing is it doesn't have the over the air update on it so now I am going to have to flash another Rom when it is added. Never ending cycle. But if it doesn't reset every thing like you said then it should be no problem.. I just remember every flash on WM meant resetting all your stuff back up. Thanks for the input.

PC36100 HTC Evo with Froyo

Rooted with Fresh 3.2 ROM

Basically Got it all installed and all my apps reinstalled with titanium back up, reinstalled my contacts, then set up the layout for all the apps and widgets the way I like it.

I first used Rom Manager to make a back up of the install. After it finished and the phone rebooted back in everything was reset to a set up similar to when I first rooted with phone only some widgets had "Problem loading Gadget" boxes and some apps were missing along with wall paper and stuff like that.

I reinstalled all my apps and set it all up and then when into recovery and did a backup with Nandroid. After the reboot everything was messed up again. the same as before. Thinking that it was just a bad install. I wiped all data and installed the Fresh ROM from scratch and installed everything yata yata.

Tried to make a back up again since it was a fresh install but the same problem keeps happening. What am I doing wrong or is there some folder with data in it that is getting messed up or overwritten when I do a back up. I'm not changing anything or doing a restore so no changes should be made to cause this.

I've also tried to do a restore after the problem and it just loads back up the same way with the problems.

[Vibrant General] k4ylr:
There is quite a handful of people reporting the same thing. Most of the replies involve using ODIN to revert back stock and trying again. Some have had success in pushing a .zip through ADB and going through recovery.

Either way it seems you have to be bone stock (no LagFix and Original GPS) to get it working.

On the other hand nobody feels bad for those that get the Vibrant screen loop since the vast majority of those affected have 3rd party ROMs/Kernals and LagFixes which won't play nice with the OTA.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evert:
Hi al,

Does anyone know whether the Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) would actually profit from a Class 10 microSD? Can it utilize the read/write speed of these microSD's?

If not, what is the max. class which the Galaxy S would actually use to its fullest?

Greetings,

Evert
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
of course it will

this is one of the fatest phone ever

if you have an External class 4 vs another External class 6 card inside this phone then you copy stuff with Astro File inside the phone you'll notice the difference in speed

and then if you compare the class 6 vs a class 10 external you'll see even more difference

this will be very important when Froyo comes out and we can finally use App2SD, as the apps will write and load faster to & from the SD on a class 10 than a class 6 or 4

don't even bother with a class 2 it'll be painful slow

and that comes by experience running apps on SD on all my previous phones
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fnakfhe:
What?

Are you basing this on a test, or are you just assuming that the class 10 microSD is theoretically faster then class 6 ?

Biased on that tech specification your making an assumption that we should get this class 10?

The question is weather or not the SGS Vibrant Bus and Data lines can transfer speeds of 80Mbits/s through the MicroSD card slot??

* Class 2: 16 Mbit/s (2 MB/s)

* Class 4: 32 Mbit/s (4 MB/s)

* Class 6: 48 Mbit/s (6 MB/s)

* Class 10: 80 Mbit/s (10 MB/s)

I would say lets buy them and test it out.

I have just placed an order for a Kingston SDC10/16GB.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
when performing test, you will always get the fastest speed when the disk is new (empty)

so the proper way to test for performance speed, is to fill the SD card 50% with random files or random sizes, then do a speed test

that will show the true performance of the sd card

you can try these 3
