[Click General] Bikers:
I got myself a laptop, and I would like to share internet from my pc via phone to my laptop! i know that a solution for this is buying an wifi router, but i'm not interested in this.

my question is how can i make my computer share internet with my phone?
[Click General] thacen:
Why don't you search... answer is all around.

If you want to access internet on your pc through your phone.. you can do it by connecting through USB and opting settings>Wireless Control>Mobile network sharing. OR using Wireless tethering on your phone and access it as an AP.

on reverse way if you want to use a wired internet network of your PC by your phone, you can make your laptop a wireless AP by running some wireless router software (connectify is one).

enjoy!!:)
[Vibrant General] samfriedman:
Will I still get the OTA even though I updated to JI5 through KIES before it was pulled
[Vibrant General] samfriedman:
c'mon does anyone know?
[Vibrant General] lrobles787:
I am on the same boat not sure if I am going to get it. The update it supposed end by 31 of this month but if I don't receive it I will call T-Mobile let them know what I have done.
[Vibrant General] ThC23:
From my understanding NO, you have to go back to stock and wait for the update or download it with Kies Mini.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
I like that everything is synced up to gmail. But I dislike the lack of options as far as how to organize the contacts.

I basically have 3 groups of contacts: Friends/family, business and food.

By default when i open the list of contacts, i'd just like the friends/family group to be displayed. I'm kind of surprised that i can just swipe left or right to switch between groups. Failing that, can i just set one group as the default group to display? I've poked around in the settings and so far haven't found anything like that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Htc sense does that by default and very good too. Create a group for the contact groups such as all contacts. In the contact edit page page specify the group for that contact such as "all contacts". In the sense people widget select the contact group you want displayed in that widget and all contacts belonging to that group will only be displayed. Enjoy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
Is there any way to do that when i go into the main contacts app itself? i.e. when i click on the 'people' button. Can i have that screen default to a certain group?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Not when you click on the people app but definitely when using the people widget.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merkk:
ok. Guess i'll just stick two widgets on a screen then for the two groups i use the most.

My phone has been unplugged for 8h 30mins. The battery has been used for: 40mins of phone calls, 25mins of that with bluetooth, about 25 texts, the screen has been on for 1h 45mins, it has been running for 2h 6mins, the internet has been used for probably 3/4 of the screen on time, and I have been using wifi for probably half of the time that it has been unplugged. I am using the stock battery and right now my battery is at 37%. Would you consider this good battery life? Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mb02:
Yesterday I had wiped my battery stats after I bump charged my phone to full because I just switched to New Guy rom. My up time made it to 27 hours with awake time at 4 hours and 10 minutes. The first two and a half hours was mostly texting, a few short phone calls and some light gaming and browsing around the phone to get everything set up the way I like. The last two hours consisted of over an hour on the internet, updating 25 apps, lots of texting with 2 short phone calls, 40 minutes of listening to music and about 15 minutes of gaming. I still had 12% battery left after all of that. I was very surprised. so what you have listed sounds like your battery life is fine.

Alright, I broke out my digicam (instead of using the phone) and took some detailed pics.

This is how you make a holster.

Not a single one on the market fits correctly and they are all made whimpy for people that are not concerned about function.

I absolutely require durability, I am a contractor and this thing sees extreme use DAILY.

I am by no means a professional leather crafter, hell, I've only really done 1 pistol holster in the past (granted it's pretty freakin nice *humble grin*).

I robbed a swiveling belt clip from a previous holster that lasted about 1 week and then disintegrated. 16ounce saddle grade leather for the exterior and doe skin for the inside liner (softer than a catholic priests fantasy butt). Stitched with real sinew.

I bought the leather (1 sq ft) from Tandy for 5$ as a scrap. I had the doe skin and sinew laying about from a deer hunt in the Northwest Territories (don't ask).

This is not difficult to make, it took about 1.5 hours total (that includes re-stitching it a few times to get it perfect) and I could have done it in 45 minutes if I really tried.

On with the pics.

(lets see some of you people do one too)

BTW, that is the T-Mo gel skin for the Vibrant in the holster (phone is on the charger right now) so you can see the fit. Note the stitching, I'm kinda proud it turned out so well.

[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
The Motorola Droid X Froyo Release is apparently fraught with errors. Everything from random reboots, to file corruption, and flaky wireless.

So... for once I'm glad Samsung isn't releasing their OTA. Maybe we get lucky and avoid all that BS?
[Captivate General] screwyluie:
My froyo works fine
[Captivate General] dewt:
We already have froyo.
[Captivate General] mav814:
Only the leaked version..
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Our leaked version of Froyo is no better. It is full of bugs as well. The biggest issue would be can't reply emails with original message included. And I found the Gallery app is incredibly buggy dealing with photos. It often forgets that it has created thumbnail files for the photos and keep treating the thumbnail files as new photos. As a result, the number of photos keeps multiplying. I had about 20 photos on my external SD card and the highest number of photos shows up in Gallery app is 200.
[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
... I'm talking OTA not the leaked version.

And so far I'm not having the issues you have with Gallery or Email. I take it you started from scratch (wiped it clean) and didnt attempt to restore any data with tibu?
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
Never used tbiu. I always starts clean. The email bug is well documented. Maybe it only shows up when you use Exchange email. But that's what a lot ppl use for email these days.

There is no guarantee that the final release will be any better. It's software and there will always be bugs. The i9000 Froyo has been finalized and leaked out. Our JI6 was built around 9/20 or so. Critical bugs like this show up this late is not a good sign. Either we have to wait until Dec. to get the Froyo or it will be released this month with these bugs in them.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
These people are having problems with the official Froyo release on the Droid X. We will probably have some problems too. The current Froyo for captivate has always been considered a pre-release Beta, so adopting early will get you some bugs - but there is no guarantee the final build will be better.

I think the known bugs (like email reply and contact groups) will be easily fixed before the final release - but I am sure we will find others.

Did everything the way I normally do when flashing a new rom.

Now when I attempt to load any ROM from my sd card, I get this message:

Installing system files ...

E:Error in /sdcard/Incredible Files/SkyRaider_33_Sense_Final.zip

(Status 0)

Installation aborted.

I also try to do a restore from my nandroid backups and it ALWAYS "freezes". Now the only thing I can do is boot into recovery but nothing after that. I've read through a lot of material and know how to do most things, however I'm by no means an expert and now I feel like I've caused irreversible damage.

HELP?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teksu:
sounds to me like your rom got corrupt during the download, i would try to download it again after deleting the file off your SD card.

did you download it from a PC or from your inc? i have seen people get corrupt files when downloading straight from the inc, its best to use a PC to download the roms

you can use the mount menu in recovery to mount your usb storage if you dont have an adapter to read the microsd, this will let you replace the possibly corrupt rom with a fresh zip
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powellshake2:
My original sd card has become unreadable by both my incredible and by my sd card reader. I have another one and loaded all of the backed up files I had on the old one. I've tried downloading the ROM through ROM Manager as well as placing the file on the new sd card and both do the same thing.

I honestly have no idea what to do now and am worried that not everything I need was transferred to the new sd card.

I just want to be able to load ANY ROM and I'm willing to reset/wipe anything and everything but I don't think there's anything I can do at this point....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teksu:
well there is nothing that needs to be on the SD card at all aside from the backup or [rom].zip file you are trying to flash

have you tried installing a different rom with recovery? maybe virtous rom?

also what version of clockwork recovery are you running?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
And you're sure it's FAT32?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powellshake2:
Positive it's FAT32 and I just flashed the most current Clockwork Recovery from ROM Manager.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
Try to format/partition the sd via recovery. The new clockwork has this method (haven't tried it and don't know if it works) and the alternate RA does, too. I've used that one and know it works. Try that (leave the defaults, which is 512mb sd-ext, 32mb or similiar swap, I think, and the rest as FAT32).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teksu:
boot into hboot (vol down and power when device is off)

what hboot version and baseband are you running?

I dont think the sd card is the problem
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powellshake2:

[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi everyone,

Saw a request for this in vibrant general, and while I'm sure most devs and cooks will have long since already deodexed the OTA JI6 for their own uses, hopefully this will still be of use to somebody.

So, that said, this is the stock JI6 OTA rom, fully deodexed, with the stock JI6 kernel and modem, pre-rooted with busybox installed.

NOTE: this was made from the "T959UVJI6 ## NEW" ODIN firmware posted a while back.

Many thanks to all the wonderful devs here, and especially to Eugene373 and Anomalous for provinding the original JFD deodexed base that I used to learn how to compile my own flashable roms.

Warning, this will wipe your data, and this has only been tested via clockwork recovery.

Download: Removed, sorry, caused problems for some people

Cheers everyone, =)

[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi,

Sorry for the issue.

I'm honestly not sure why its happening, it didn't happen on my phone when I tested everything before uploading, and the bootclasspath's used for deodexing were the same that anomalous used for the original JFD deodexed rom. That said, admittedly, I usually run a personalized version of either frankin-twiz/hybrid or bionix rom daily, was only uploading this since I had already deodexed JI6 for personal use (I always like to build new theme's/mods from unmodified/stock files) and saw a request in general.

Anyway, at this point, since sombionix moved to the OTA files too, I'm probably not going to look into it or really support this, sorry.
[Vibrant Android Development] bahnburner:
It's cool. I was just using this as a quick and dirty base for my Evo Blackbar theme.

[Nexus One General] ap3604:
Wow thanks for taking the time to post the great info glwinkler!

I was wondering about this since I'm not smart enough to root normally but the 1 click root method seems perfect for me. I just wasn't sure if it worked on the 2.2.1 so you answered my question :)

One more question, this unlocks the bootloader and voids the warranty right?

I've know there has been root methods that leave your bootloader locked (and warranty intact) but I'm not sure if this is one of them. Since I've had to swap 2 N1's I want to keep my warranty and won't root it away.
[Nexus One General] herrwinkler:
It's using rageahainstthecage so if I'm not mistaken, it does not unlock your bootloader. I have not seen the unlocked symbol on my N1. But just to be safe THIS POST AND ITS OP ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR BRICKED PHONE...BLAH BLAH BLAH...........
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:

[Nexus One General] herrwinkler:
The only issue I had was using windows, because I know nothing about windows. The unlockr video was helpful, they have notes under the video on their site. If anyone uses VMware, make sure you choose to have your device connect to windows every time or just unplug and replug your device after it says "OK, waiting for phone" or something like that.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ilindov:
Hello, I'm using Mdeejay Froyo Sense 2.4 with hastarin 7.1 kernel.

I noticed that when I'm charging the battery in Android it never goes to 100%. It reaches 96-97%, voltage goes to 4.197V and the led stays red. If, after that, I restart the phone, both in WinMo and in Android, the indicator shows 100% and the led is green.

I'm worried if the battery charging is performed correctly in Android.

I would be glad to read your opinions on that.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jdwrrzmm:
In the hyperdroid thread there is a command to "calibrate" your battery or something.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jelliottz:
Turn your phone completely off. Charge to full - green led instead of amber. Boot back up and restart android. You should be good to go.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mastajest:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ilindov:

Thanks to all of you for the advices!

To souljaboy: No I'm using the original battery.

To malaeus: I used the pretty search button, but I didn't find anything similar, maybe because I didn't include the word 'calibrate' (I didn't know that I'll have to "calibrate" the battery). And if you had read my whole post, you probably would had noticed that this is only the first part of it. I also wrote that: "I'm worried if the battery charging is performed correctly in Android. I would be glad to read your opinions on that."

So, with no offence, I think you overreacted a little bit.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Visentinel:
The full charge battery voltage is not 4.197 it is 4.202

LI-ION charges to 4.2 volts, this is 70% of full charge, after this a "Topping Charge" is applied, this can take longer than the original charge to 70%

once the battery stops absorbing charge current this is when the battery is 100%

I would suggest using "Current Widget" to observe this, android will often state a 100% charge when the battery reaches 4.202 volts, but current widget continues to show a charge current, wait until its below 50mah or so then unplug the charger, delete the batterystats.bin and reboot the phone, that should calibrate android perfectly.

If you can live with your phone turned off for a while, delete the batterystats.bin and shutdown, then charge with the phone off. this will perform a total and complete charge with full topping charge.

Just one bit of advice... do not leave your phone on the charger all night every single night after getting a perfect calibration like this, having a LI-ION battery sitting on 4.2 volts for like 7 to 8 hours a day will simply kill the battery in under a year if not within 8 months.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ilindov:
Very informative! Thank you very much!

Is my battery or adapter getting broken? I did both types of calibration and I never saw a value bigger than 4.197V. Even when I fully charged the phone while off and booted to Android the indicator was at 4.154V.

Otherwise, when fully charged, the battery lasts in Android almost as much as in WinMo - 40-48 hours.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] apeatan:
-same here. Thanks. Very informative. I noticed it when i reach 95%, it is still charging but the rate becomes lower until it returns to my normal reading (full).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] andrewf403:
Thanks for the info! I never charge my battery in Android, but I noticed, that percentage indicator readings is different between Android and WM.

One more thing, I searched for "calibrate" in HyperDorid thread, and here is what I found "charge full in windows then remove battery and charge full in android to calibrate..."

I do not get it. How can I boot Android without battery, and how can I charge already charged battery? :D :D
