[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] silvscorp:
miri v17 rom updated radio to 2.15 here in New York area and found better reception, faster 3g and better battery despite many other claimed more consumption. WM6.5 is running smooth as butter and tried both SkinnyEvo and Froyo HD without a problem too.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] the_scotsman:
Nope, nothing different except the band frequencies..no need to worry about radio versions or anything :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
This is my Tilt 2 phone with T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 motherboard. I did this because ATT 3G will not will not work on T-Mobile network. Voice frequency is same on both networks but 3G data frequency is different. I didn't know that when I bought this phone. So Bought a TP2 with broken screen ($20 on craigslist) and swapped the motherboard. It was a perfect fit! I did not change the speaker/antenna because it was slightly different but the reception is excellent.

Just thought I share this info to anyone who's thinking about doing the same thing. Let me know if you have any question, I’ll be glad to share.

Does the PTT button still work on with the new mobo?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
No, TP2 didn't have that button so my PTT has no click feel and does nothing to the phone. I didn't use that feature so it was no loss for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] panthersdzynes:
Looks great! Nice work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] latinohot:
You think...

...you think you can help me

I'm changing carriers next week, I'll be goin to T-Mobile, and I too have a Tilt2

but don't have the knowledge on how to change the motherboard from one device to another, Also can you find another TP2 in your area 'cause here there's nothing like that available
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
here's a video link on how to take tp2 apart

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYqNlM68_as

as for locating a device, your best source is ebay or craigslist.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
additional note...

see if simple mobile is available in your area. they use tmobile network and it cost less. my plan is unlimited talk, text, and data for $60 with no tax, fees, etc.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kasaki:
never heard of them, I can use a t-mobile phone on their plans? they have the same coverage as t-mobile?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
yes and yes
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Kasaki:
says they don't offer service in my area but they have a store and the coverage map shows my town as covered weird
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowtail714:
if you're in tmobile network you can use simple mobile. customer service is pretty bad. bunch of idiots. you need to get a sim card. i got mine from ebay for about $3. just pop in the sim card, load up your account and your good to go. you don't even have to unlock tmobile phone. for att phones, you have to unlock it but 3g will not work. hope this helps

one thing i'm disappointed about this service is you cannot do conference calls. i hope they change this policy.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
I was on a stock vibrant that was rooted with one click lag fix (I unrooted before updating) and after the update finished and the phone rebooted it was stuck at the vibrant screen. I've done everything in recover from wiping to reinstalling packages. Nothing works. I'm on a mac so I don't have ODIN but if I absolutely need it I can use a PC for it. I really just need someone to walk me through using ODIN to get it working.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nearblack:
Hopefully this a lesson well learned. Whenever you flash something new, always make a nandroid backup.

Anyway,to ODIN back to stock you need to first download ODIN and the stock firmware.

This can be downloaded @ : http://tinyurl.com/2bc5b6r

Then put your phone into download mode by:

1.pull the battery out of the phone.

2.plug usb into computer

3.put the battery back in the phone

4.hold in the volume up and down

5.plug usb in to phone

then open up ODIN on your computer and follow the following steps:

And you should be good to go.

I pulled all of this from this thread, and made it a bit more concise: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=799105

But yeah, make sure to make those backups!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
thanks man! I'll do this tomorrow after school.

I have always made nandroids on my nexus but on here I was stock so I couldn't. Anyway, thanks a ton. I'll let you know if I run into any problems.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
It worked and I'm back to the original 2.1 update 1. Do you think I can use the official JI6 ODIN update from this point and update it to that?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nearblack:
Don't even... Just go with the bionix ROM. It is a JI6	build... Much better than stock.

http://github.com/jubishop/Facebook-for-Adobe-AIR

Source code for Facebook client for Adobe Air

We have air for Froyo now.

Is it possible to compile into android air apk for a GOOD Facebook client?
[Captivate Android Development] kakwvu:
For the love of God, please.
[Captivate Android Development] sold1erjjt:
technically if it were developed using adobe's software tools and is sourced for AIR it shouldn't be hard to port in to an .apk i guess we shall see...:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] kennethpenn:
Have you actually tried Facebook for Air? It's just a news feed and status bar. No other features. It is worse than Android Facebook. :p

Plus, AIR apps must be optimized for mobile. This one wouldn't be too hard to optimize if you have all the code, but it isn't just BOOM throw it into Flash CS5 and BOOM export to APK.
[Captivate Android Development] buddy17:
i was really hoping for something good out of this...facebook for android is downright HORRIBLE. I don't understand why the iphone version has not been put to use on android, considering there are more android running devices than ios.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Well, from the other apps I have converted, this should be easy.. will report back soon!

-edit

not sure if this will work as is, with the popup to login and all.. but I will try
[Captivate Android Development] Bowsa2511:
Thanks dg :D
[Captivate Android Development] Lee1733:
In the past few months, the facebook for android app has gotten infinitely better. It's almost on par with the iphone version now. What is it that you all feel is missing that would be remedied with this version? Just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] halfbrainhunter9000:
The fact that when you get a notification it takes you to the mobile site is a big issue, unless I'm missing something. That just seems like they got lazy in their design because you can view all of your updates manually. Also a lack of IM feature also kind of sucks. It's got a nice look to it, but the iphone facebook app is much better.
[Captivate Android Development] bmvik:
Agreed. Plus it doesnt notify. Anyone else got more to add?
[Captivate Android Development] Hydrocharged:
Can't comment on pictures
[Captivate Android Development] bmvik:
cant tag them either
[Captivate Android Development] Mechapanda:
can't get push notifications either. you have to keep refreshing your app.
[Captivate Android Development] shiftylock:
if you click the "messages" tab too quickly and pick a thread you were already messaging someone in, it shows up blank and you have to restart facebook... sooo frustrating
[Captivate Android Development] sdotbrucato:
My biggest gripes are no push notifications, no tagging, no picture commenting, no liking statuses, and no "places" functionality.
[Captivate Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
i think facebook is just doomed for android lol
[Captivate Android Development] malfuncion:
The biggest gripe I have is previously on my Dream(G1 for AT&T Canada) they ported the nexus facebook app over- which is the same app with a few more features. They had the ability to Sync your pictures/updates with contacts in your phone. It worked like the official twitter app works. On our phone its just plane broken. If you uninstall-reinstall the app and go through the setup it will give you a "finish" button after signing in the first time. If you hit your back button on the touchpad you will see the contact sync. Sad thing though is its just broke. If you Go to your accounts sync in settings you will see the SNS setings up top then the Facebook down below your Gmail. If you click on it though nothing happens- on my Dream it went back into the facebook app's sync settings.

I also agree with the other points people have brought up on no comments on pics etc. The app will eventually be updated for the Galaxy but until then we just have to live with crap. I decompiled the app back in the day and wanted to modify it a little bit but never got around to actually doing it. If I was to modify the Official Android app, would this violate copyrights? Is it based under GNU licensing? I have seen "Colored" versions of the Official app in the market and wondered if they were violating terms by selling a black version of the exact same app? Anyone care to shed some light?

Sorry to go off topic but BOOMER
[Captivate Android Development] kdwolf85:
I just tested this on my Captivate running Cog 2.2B7 with no issues. I can see all the profile pics from FB in my contact list. When I open the FB app I can "like" wall posts and comment on pictures.
[Captivate Android Development] malfuncion:
SOONER! :)

So youre telling me you see this: (pictures are in order according to my post on how to get there)

http://wtfokc.com/sef****/0.pnghttp://wtfokc.com/sef****/2.pnghttp://wtfokc.com/sef****/3.png

This is what happens on my Cog2.2 B7. I reinstalled fresh, get the first sign in, then I get "Finish". If you hit your back button you then get the Sync options. This function however doesnt work for me and hasnt on any of the Rom's Ive tried so far on teh captivate. I have read a lot on it and it appears to be a problem on all the Galaxy devices. If yours is working, I'd like to know how?

Only thing I can think is you have your SNS settings setup? Those are the ones in Account/Sync options at the Top -> Facebook, Myspace, Twitter. If so, they will auto sync pictures and junk for you- however it loses links very often- or did for me in previous versions of cog. I would get wall posts and pics in my contacts.. then next day I'd only get twitter, if I got any at all. Also my contacts would lose thier pictures and wouldnt let me re-add or associate them again. I would try over and over to reconnect the contacts to FB and couldnt unless I totally removed the account and reset it. This hap'd multiple time for me. It was rather craptastic syncing and aggravating..so I stopped using the built in SNS accounts all together and just use the official apps now. Only downfall is Facebook's sync doesnt work, twitter's however does.
[Captivate Android Development] pagandoc:
do you have to compile it to an apk yourself? or where are you all getting the apk?

[EVO 4G General] P_Dub_S:
Just updated and works like its supposed to and has a option to turn on the phones speaker its in Chinese I think but its pretty self explanatory.
[EVO 4G General] mrpuffin:
haha that pissed me off so i pulled the apk and edited it

i get picky on small things like that haha
[EVO 4G General] zikronix:
care to share
[EVO 4G General] onlinespending:
I second that! :)
[EVO 4G General] mrpuffin:
well not perfect

it's a speaker icon rather then text (it wouldn't let me add text) but at least it's not chinese

also launcher icon is the HTC radio launcher icon

the apk is not signed nor do i plan on signing it since i made it for personal use

and my signing app was for windows and i just removed windos on my computer and replaced it with linux

install via adb or root explorer (remember to change permissions with explorer)

Does the FM radio only work with headphones?
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Been some work on the FM packages today on Github:

FM: New art from HaXzAmaTiC

FM: Fix notification string

FM: Enable Settings menu

FM: Add "about" that links to MIUI

FM: Fix case on strings to match Android convention

Merge "Added Italian translations:" into froyo

Sadly, yes. It also apparently needs Bluetooth to be on.

Hey guys, I was thinking about contributing something to Cyanogen for a while now so I decided to make a new skin for the radio. It's super rough, details are wonky, buttons are missing, and everything is disproportionate or unaligned; but so far what do ya' think?

Any idea how to stop this from happening? it gets annoying fast! Oh and in the cpu benchmark it keeps saying its cpu speed is 550mhz. Should I beleive it? or is it just innacurate?

Ok I was flashing back to stock 2.1 useind odin when mid process my phone fell battery out usb disconnected and bam thats it. Now my phone is locked on a screen that shows a picture of a phone ! and a computer. I can get it back to download mode and odin will se the phone but gets no further then do not unplug device, my computer beeps when its plugged in but it dose not show the phone in my computer section. Any fixes or am i screwed?

PS phone is only two weeks old if need be could I take it back like this????
[Captivate General] ce2700:
Hmm I think I may hove gotten past this problem. Uninstalled odin reinstalled and now it seems to be hopefully working
[Captivate General] praetorrian:
Here is the fix

I was in this same situation yesterday. Here is how to get it back into download mode.

•Be sure the Samsung USB drivers for the phone are installed on your computer.

•Remove and replace the battery.

•Connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable. The "phone-exclamation mark-computer" picture should display on the phone's screen.

•Hold the Volume Up+Volume Down+Power buttons down simultaneously.The screen should go blank, then the picture should appear again. When the screen goes blank a second time, release the Power button while continuing to hold the Volume Up+Volume Down buttons down
[Captivate General] k2snowboards88:
If that doesn't work,i had a similar problem where I could get into odin, but it would progress beyond the pit file. Take the battery, sim and memory card out of your phone. Start odin. Put the battery only back in. hold volume up and down. Plug the phone in while holding these buttons. Don't let go until you are in download mode. Now try restoring. It should work.
[Captivate General] ce2700:
Thanks for the input i am back up and running!!
[Captivate General] vikdmon:
Bricked replacement Captivate - Orange Screen

Just to let you know. I recently received a replacement captivate thru warranty exchange. The phone was apparently a new one with JF6. So I decided to do an update to JH7 using Kies mini. A little over half way to the update procedure, the phone screen turned orange and stayed there for a long time, eventually I had to pull the plug. Of course I had to manually go to download mode and launch Kies mini emergency recovery, the damn thing again got stuck at the orange screen.

If anybody has this experience do no proceed further and throw that damn thing back at At&T's face. Do not attempt to do anything. I made a mistake of then doing an ODIN one-click back to stop and the phone got stuck half way, went to the orange screen.. and then it was over.. The phone was dead, wouldn't turn on, no recovery or download mode with any button combo. When I plugged in to the wall, no battery indicator.

save yourself the trouble and return the damn thing

went that route, still cant find dl mode. have resistors built and all. any way i try to boot shows me the phone -!- computer, and the computer doesnt attempt to recognise it so there is no communication between the computer and phone. unfortunately, i dont have a v/ohm meter, so i am not sure of the accuracy of the resistors i used to make my jig.
[Captivate General] NascarFastcar:
I fixed this many times with phone that had the button download mode and didn't.

Getting into download mode while softbricked like this wont show the normal download screen. IT will still show the error screen....

With download mode working still:

Simply remove the battery and replace,

Open odin

Hold down volume keys and plug it in till you see odin recognize ur phone.

Then continue to use odin.

Dosent work, repeat.

If you know ur button combo dosent work:

Just open odin.

Remove battery & replace.

Use jig (3k 100k ohms twisted)

Then when the phone turns on and your see the pc! screen plug in usb.

See if odin sees it.

Assuming your flash didn't fail on the PBL.bin or SBL.bin you should be fine.

Follow the methods suggested by other users here and you will get back up and running in no time at all.
[Captivate General] OwenW71:
Don't sweat the 'phone-!-pc' screen. I'm a little surprised that no one has given you the good news....that is just a version of the download screen for later hardware revisions. It looks bad, but if Odin recognizes your phone (if one of the COM fields goes active), just start your flash again.

Now if Odin does not recognize the phone when plugged in via USB, then you have some more work to do.
[Captivate General] Steve_O_1971:
I had forgotten about posting here, and my problem has been resolved. So here it is... I tried everything that I could find within this forum, almost. I built my own jig with inferior radio shack components that would not activate download mode, though it would turn the phone on. I got wise, spent 8 dollars at ebay and purchased a JIG there. Instant download mode after 3 days (shipping). Reflashed with one click, updated w/ kies, made kernal changes and am now rockin my captivate. Thanks to those who assisted. ;)

Using the 3-resistor method takes A LOT of patience, at least in my experience. Glad everything worked out.
[Captivate General] Steve_O_1971:
Patience is a virtue, and my Ex's name. LOL! I can do without patience. ;)

Jokes aside, i actually soldered the resistors to a plug that i had cut up, and made sure it was covered so my skin wouldnt come in contact. The Radio Shack here buys inferior products and sells them at reggular retail. Unfortunately my $300.00 V-Ohm meter is on the fritz, and i have not had the time or money to replace it yet, but I have intentions to check the actual resistance of the jig I made. ^^
