I have done both the rageagainstthecage to see how hard it would be but if you follow step by step, you'd be fine. I have also upgraded to 2.2.1 and tried SOC and that works as well. After I used SOC, I reverted back to 2.2 and loaded Rod's Rom again. I was curious :P

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone knows what "Remote Sim Mode" is on Captivate? I recently upgraded to Froyo from android 2.1. I noticed that whenever I turn on my "bluetooth" on my Captivate, the bluetooth icon will show up. If I push the "bluetooth" button again, a message will show up saying that "Remote Sim Mode Activated". I never seen this message on android 2.1.

Saying "Google is your friend" is a failed attempt at saying "I Don't Know".

So please instead of acting like some prissy tech know it all, why not actually contribute something useful to the conversation instead of getting your jollies off by being a smart ass?

I mean not all of us are some lonely geek sitting in their parents basement getting off on some image board, spouting off memes like they are gospel...

It's people like you that make tech forums like this unbearable when it comes to the sharing of knowledge and information. At the very least if you were so wise and sage, you could have posted a link supplying the answer.

But no, you couldn't even take the time out of your busy trolling to even do that. You have to be all cute and cool and go "Google is your friend".

Yes, Google is our friend, it brought us to this place and met idiots such as yourself. Google is an infinitely better friend than you could ever hope to be.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brynn85:
Ouch, haha. A bit harsh maybe, but well said. :P

I also had less-than-stellar luck when googling "remote sim mode" when my phone decided to put itself there. Soooo don't hate on us just cause we come here hoping for a little bit more clearly stated answers. :-/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boe_dye:
Thanks :-)

It just really irks me because these forums exist for a reason. Yes, I will agree that most people don't take the time to look through the forums. But on the other hand, looking through hundreds of posts can be a bit daunting at times too especially if your a noob which can get discouraging.

It's a forum, not IRC. Instead of cluttering it up with nonsense and bickering... just give the answer or shut up...

Now... with that being said, this is what I have discovered: The Bluetooth remote sim mode has something to do with connecting to your cars Bluetooth receiver so that you can make phone calls from your car to your phone.

Why it automatically comes on after you turn off the Bluetooth radio via the drop down menu is beyond me.

So you open up the drop down menu and you push the module and it comes up with "Deactivate Remote SIM mode?" dialogue box.

Click Yes it ideally turns it off. Click No it cancels out of the dialogue box. Clicking yes however... doesn't seem to do anything anyways which is the problem we all seem to be running into.

So what do we do? Well we can reset our phones. Cognition v2.2Beta8 has a nice little reset option when you long hold down the lock button on the side.

Of course this gets kinda annoying every single time.

All is not lost though. What you can do is this: Go into Settings>Wireless and Network>Bluetooth settings and turn on/off Bluetooth from there.

If Bluetooth is off, you can just turn it on from the drop down menu. However if it is on and you want it off, I would suggest turning it off from the settings menu.

When you uncheck the green checkmark that says "Bluetooth", three things are going to happen. One, your going to turn off the Bluetooth Radio. Two, in the status bar there is going to be a message saying "Remote Sim Mode Activated". Three, and this is what we are trying to accomplish, a small dialogue box is going to pop up on the bottom saying "Remote Sim Mode Deactivated". This is essentially what we want to happen.

I don't know why it works this way. However I have noticed that there are a few quirks in the drop down menu from time to time. Perhaps this is just one of the more prevalent ones.

I hope this helped a bit. I'm not a developer or a programmer, just a modder who likes tweaking and likes to learn from the devs who take a lot of time and effort in to making our devices work better. I also hope that you don't mistake the inconsiderate, idiotic reply of "cappysw10" as the general attitude of people who post on this forum.

Most of the people here are pretty cool and are more than willing to help out :-)

Good Luck and happy modding :-)

Hey thanks! Googled remote sim first thing, found out what it was and that it doesn't apply to me. Came to this forum to find an answer and YOU PROVIDED ONE YAY!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boe_dye:
hey all thanks for the thanks! I'm glad that I was able to help a bit with a few observations.

Just a few more before I go, It would seem to me that the entire notifications drop down menu is buggy.

For me, none of the buttons work as they should whether it be WiFi, bluetooth, etc...

Just about all of those functions have to be set in the settings dialogue that I mentioned about before.

I haven't update Cognition in a month now, so he might have gotten to fixing it by now, I cannot say.

Thank you. Best one-liner in a while. I also agree that if a question is asked and your response isn't toward answering the question it's fruitless.

Either answer or don't. I respect either but the taking up of space that doesn't contribute to the solution is useless.

(Much like my response. ;) )
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevebic83:
Hope this helps

Idk what causes this or why or how to fix it, BUT if you just turn the bluetooth back on and then off again it deactivates the remote sim. You don't have to do it through the settings, you can use the drop down menu or if u have the control panel widget you can use that. Just on and then off again. Hopefully this will get fix cuz it is annoying to have to push the button two extra times.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdmuscle:
Remote Sim Mode

I guess no one actually found out what this is. Just a question did you have your bluetooth connected to your cars bluetooth handsfree? I know I have a handsfree in my car built in, from what I've read on wikipedia it has something to do with the car having a remote connection through the sim card in the phone. Maybe if your phone has the bluetooth on it still has a paired setting for your car and turning it off calls up this remote sim mode thing to show up. I don't know but I believe this is what causes this. When you turn it off and turn it back on it doesn't appear again after you turn the bluetooth back on. I've noticed this only if I connect with the car and turn the bluetooth off on the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
Did you not read the thread? It was answered in post #8.

Also it doesn't matter if the phone is synced to your cars handsfree or not. My phone does it when its connected to my car, not connected to my car, sending a file over Bluetooth, really anytime I toggle BT on and off. Its impartial to the situation in which Bluetooth is activated.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Svobi:
Hello,

First instal ActiveSync 4.5 in PC. - if not already installed

http://www.softwarepatch.com/windows/activesync.html

Then in settings in (ActiveSync) disable (NOT check): "allowed to connect to one of the following port" and "Allow connection to USB".

Perhaps the translation is correct. I use the CZ version. But it's second and third check box.

Now

This works for when the Universal is in Bootloader and Windows Mobile.

1. First download the ROM you want to install.

2. Extract it to a folder (use winar or other extraction software).

3. There will be up to 3 ROMs in the package: ms_.nbf (Extended ROM), nk.nbf (OS ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)

4. Delete those which you don't want to install. (If you just want to upgrade the radio rom for instance delete ms_.nbf and nk.nbf and leave radio_.nbf.)

5. Download UniversalRUU.zip

6. Extract it and copy into that folder the nbf files you want to install.

7. Enter BootLoader mode by pressing and holding the power button and backlight button whilst performing a reset with the stylus. And plug to PC. Wait few seconds.

8. Doubleclick ROMUpgradeUt.exe and follow the instructions

9. When the upgrade is finished pull out the USB cable from the Universal.

10. You will need to do a soft reset OR hard reset depending on the situation. (note: some say do a soft reset / others a hard reset .. possibly someone with more knowledge could correct me here, but until then it's best to investigate the matter for yourself on the forum.)

11. To do a hard reset (push the two menu buttons ("-") on the keyboard + the reset button at the same time (all of this three). Doing a hard reset will result in you losing all your installed apps and data so ensure you have a backup of everything first.) Everything should be fine from this time. You have to calibrate the screen and do some tutorial...

12. If after doing a hard reset you want your Universal not to install the extras from the Extended ROM wait untilsetup is complete and then do a softreset when the popup window appears (you have 3 seconds before it installs ExtendedROM)

For a long time I have not installed the new ROM. I remember so I proceeded as follows

Greetings

Is there an Android Manual where I can learn basic functionality such as associating pictures with contacts.

[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
It's not that hard. Go into the Contacts app, go to a contact, tap the menu button, hit edit, tap the picture in the top right corner with the plus sign and then I'm sure you can figure it out from there.

Joe, if you spent more time using google, you wouldn't need to post threads with these questions. Explore the phone and teach yourself! They didn't design Android so that it was impossible to figure out.

Just got my off contract streak from Dell Thursday (VERY quick! Ordered it Tuesday afternoon!).

Fired it up, downloaded the sync software from the phone and it won't sync with

outlook 2010 (X64). From what I could tell, it's an issue with the plug in with

the x64 driver, not talking to the pc-suite software?

I dumped office and installed Thunderbird & Open office. Works on the x64 laptop and should work ok on the x64 computer at home.

I haven't really used it other than playing around with it, but it sure is a LOT faster than my HTC Touch Pro2! Even with 1.6 droid.

Nothing against my devoted TP2, but, MAN that Streak screen is NICE!

Hope to get it rooted this weekend, and have 2.2 up on it by Monday.

Now, it will just take some time undoing all the things I know about windows mobile. I've been with it since the Dell Axium x3 days and pocket PC.
[Streak 5 General] xilpaxim:
Congrats! I'm at home waiting for mine to arrive today! Moving from TP2 also! Very excited!
[Streak 5 General] Radimus:
I went from Vuze to Streak, a HUGE improvement

Suggestion, spend the extra bucks and get an exchange account or just go gmail for the OTA sync... screw the desktop clients

I have personal exchange account via 1and1 and corporate exchange and can access them via Touchdown (comes with the streak)

can't get over how nice the screen looks!
[Streak 5 General] kantras:
I'm similar in that I have my corporate email and my personal email, and like to keep them seperate (same with calendars) - I use gmail for my personal email, bought touchdown for my corporate email, and use google voice for voicemail (unanswered calls to my Streak get forwarded to my google voice number to be recorded, and I can then use the google voice app as a "Visual Voicemail" type client.)

Welcome to the Streak Family best device out there

I would have a good look round the forum their are a lot of good tutorials on the streak and android you will learn a lot and don't forget the most important bit ENJOY!!!:)
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
Still on 1.6 for now

Been fiddling with it for the last couple hours, downloading a few apps, changing the icons/widgets on the screens etc...only thing I can't figure out is the manual says that when the streak is on, a simple press of the on/off button will lock the screen? A simple press does nothing, and a full press of a second or two pops up the menu to turn off the phone? 1.6 glitch, or will downloading another screen lock app fix that?

It's nice to FINALLY have a BT headset that all the message prompts, ringtones etc ACTUALLY WORK! The obviously aren't using the Widcom BT stack LOL, or a better version! Never did work right in Windows mobile. It would either start playing ringtones, cut out, then go again, or just not play them at all through BT, even with A2DP. Don't even get me started on trying to BT dial the phone.

I can either hit the mic button on the phone, or just hold my (jawbone icon) button to get the prompt and it so far has WORKED EVERY TIME!

Will be playing with it all weekend, need to find a beltclip case, don't want to risk it in my pocket.

P.S. Have I mentioned the screen?? :D
[Streak 5 General] kantras:
Hmm, strange - I always use the power button to lock the screen. Sometimes a factory reset can help resolve some glitches, but I don't know if it will help in this case since I've not had it happen.
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
Yep, the factory reset fixed the sleep screen issue.

I ported my address book up to gmail. Kind of nice...the minute I change something on gmail, it sends it right to the phone.

If I can just find a stateside place to get a belt clip case, I'll be set.

Looks like Dell is about ready to pop the 2.x update, placeholder already

on their support site.

This weekend, I did get a chance to read up on rooting, hacking/mods.

I come from the old pocket pc (dell Axim) days, so I've had pocket pc/windows

mobile forever. I can root around (bad pun) in the registry like nobodies business,

but it's been similar to learning how to walk all over again with android.

Thought I was too old to learn something new ;)

Ok, for anyone out there that owns a PS3, you know what I'm talking about. You know how with the XMB on the PS3 it has a main icon and when you pick that icon, say video, everything under video is somewhat visible in a drop-down list? Would it be able to create an XMB style scrollable menu with icons such as "social" and all of your social networking apps be listed in a drop-down type menu? All of this without leaving your home screens. If this is a totally ridiculous idea, I understand. Just thought it would be neat.
