[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nextgin:
This is my second GS, and I never paid attention to it the first time, but now I am getting annoyed with it. Every time I receive a Text the phone plays 2 sounds as the alert. I've tried changing the notification sound, but it still plays the default sound plus my selected sound. So it plays the selected sound first, then the default chime right after.

Anyone knows how to make it stop doing this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
Are you using a 3rd party text app like Handcent or Chomp? If so you need to turn off notifications in the stock sms app.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nextgin:
No,

I'm using stock msg program.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandab:
I have this problem too. I only use the default messaging. I used to have hand scent but I deleted it and I still have this problem. Also I get two notifications on my bar and one of them stays there even after I read the text. Annoying!
[G2 and Desire Z General] soundslikemitch:
Mine did this due to the batter being lose. I was able to rock the batter on the lower left corner when the back was off. After I wiggled the battery, sd, and sim around I was able to get rid of the rocking and the battery was secure. You should check for this.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Authority:
Thanks for the quick responce. I just cheched, everything seems very snug. I took SIM, Battery, And SD Card out and reinserted them.. I should know tomorrow if it fixes it, seems to do it once a day or so...

If anyone else has ideas please let me know... If it continues I need to get it relaced before my 14 days.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tankmorph:
Just exchange your phone. Its not supposed to do that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] swags:
This evening I experienced the problem where the phone is frozen with the screen off and does not respond to any button presses for the first time. When I removed the battery so I could restart I noticed that the SD card holder had unlocked and was popped up. I know my G1 would hang and/or reboot when a bump caused my SD card to pop loose, so maybe the same thing is happening with the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xKERNALx:
Hmm, very weird as I haven't had any problems with it doing this, like above stated, I'd just return the phone over something like that, it happens.
[Fascinate General] ktez:
It all started when I was going to disable the Voodoo lagfix to make a CWM backup. I disabled it and then rebooted, and when it came back on, it was back to TW launcher and most of the apps were gone. My market is gone, and when going thru the setup wizard, it doesn't give me an option to log into Google, so my contacts are missing too. I removed voodoo first, then did the Odin process to return to stock. None of this worked, still the same, so I flashed the nandroid stock image. Now I get an error message when I boot up that says "UID's on system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." I have done the factory data wipe from CWM but can not get into the one in settings, as this just FC's. Please help!!!!!!! I also don't have any keyboards or Gmail........
[Fascinate General] ksizzle9:
Wipe data from recovery 2e then flash stock kernel, recovery, then system with Odin should b fine
[Fascinate General] ktez:
I wiped data many times, restored all the stock stuff thru odin, and followed adrenalyne's post on completely removing voodoo. I don't get the error message anymore now when I boot up, but still don't have the market or a keyboard. One other weird thing - when I try to go to settings and privacy, it FC's

I also do not have the option to sign in to Google in the start up menu so no contacts either......
[Fascinate General] moonrequiem:
I had a similar problem.

Tried using the directions given in another thread to flash back to stock using Odin. In the end, I ended up being stuck in the "Setup Wizard"...there were no forward or back buttons once you hit the Account Setup screen. If I received a call, and hung up and immediately hit the "Messaging" button that shows up on that screen, it would FC.

Ended up taking it back into the store...got a new one.

Was stuck...didn't know what to do.
[Fascinate General] GoBruins:
I don't know what to do, but perhaps you can go to the mIRC channel tomorrow and get some "live" help. Hopefully you'll get some help from someone there! irc freenode, #samsung-fascinate
[Fascinate General] namebrandon:
ktez: your mbr is still stuck (or was) at the voodoo version. The post about fully installing Voodoo should take care of it, but very brifely I'd do the following..

Remove and /sdcard/Voodoo directory

Reinstall Voodoo (flash kernel if necesscary), let it convert and boot fully up

Create the disable_lagfix file, reboot, and let it fully boot up

Reboot into CWM recovery

via adb, mount /dbdata and delete it

- mkdir /dbdata

- mount -t rfs -o nosuid,nodev,check=no /dev/block/stl10 /dbdata

- rm -rf /dbdata/

in CWM, wipe data and cache

flash stock kernel (I'd recommend the CWM stock kernel, but pure stock will work)

reboot

go into initial setup, then exit out, and go to settings - privacy - wipe system / restore to factory

Form this point you're back to stock, you can either restore a nandroid, or start over.
[Fascinate General] ktez:
Thank you - I didn't have internet access all day so I just went to Verizon after work and swapped it out for a new phone. I guess Voodoo isn't something to mess with - I did follow all those instructions from the post and still had no luck but on the bright side I learned how to use adb shell now: ) I think I will just leave this phone stock for now........

[General Questions and Answers] kmdub:
I have always wondered, with all these services for unlocking phones via IMEI, how does this generally work. I mean, sure we know the carriers have either the codes or the specific algorithms used to obtain the codes by IMEI. However, how to all these services get their hands on either? Also, if they are so easily obtained (judging by the number of services claiming the ability to unlock phones), why is it so hard for an average person to obtain one without paying a service to do it? Are they only sold/obtained in batches of IMEI's, perhaps being prohibitively expensive for one person? If the algorithims used are known, which they must be by someone other than the carriers, then why can't someone just write software to accomplish the task? Say some opensource developers. I know there are plenty of those who would give such software away free if possible.

Some things I have always wondered about IMEI unlocking. Basically, how can all these services to it, but a person cannot?

Thats the question that has me somehow frustrated the last days! Specially since I moved to Blackberry, which is like very dumb plat, I cant believe that kind of basic hacking is so much underwraps.
[General Questions and Answers] malayalapenkutti:
Hai i will help You,You cannot i mean a normal person cannot get the unlock code,It's based on the Network Database and network provider only generate the code based on Mobile Phone IMEI Number and Model...So they have code in their Data base,they can't guess by others,so you need to pay for it..Nowadays some persons have develop some calculators and programs and to generate a default code based on IMEI,But it will not work always,so payable cost is best for PDA phones for Normal Nokia DCt Phones and other old phones free code is useful...Others cannot generate the unlock code default method..It's too hard,Here Unlocking4free.com/unlock-your-phone you can get the unlock code for some mobile phones at free of cost and unlock it.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmastax1x:
should i delete all the HTC Sense stuff if i want to install a different launcher such as LaucherProPlus or ADW? If so, what files should be deleted?

Would i get better performance with all the sense stuff uninstalled?

Thanks in advance
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
there are some scripts on here to remove all the sense files. make sure you install and set the other launcher as default before you remove the sense launcher.

i personally use LauncherProPlus, so i'm using only maybe 10-15% of Sense on my phone, but i haven't uninstalled any sense components and i get great performance? that's my experience anyways.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stajdanley:
You do not have to delete the Sense stuff to get those to work, they actually are not compatible and block it anyways. Deleting the Sense/Sprint stuff will not give your phone better performance. Those things are basically just taking up storage space if you aren't using them.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dmastax1x:
thanks both for the reply. In that case then, does anyone know of a ROM out there that has ALL the features of the EVO, such as 4g, camera, wireless tether, etc. But just doesnt have htc sense?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
your best bet if you want a "senseless" rom is to pick any sense rom and runt he script located in the post linked in my signature.

It will remove sense all the htc, most known ok to remove apps and most of the sprint apps.

There is also a tool linked that will allow you to change the script easily if you want to keep some of the apps etc.

The only true roms that have no sense are AOSP and none of those have everything working just yet, so this is kinda the best you can get for now.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gbpack2306:
I am certainly no developer, but I was wondering if there was a way to make a soft keyboard that would only show a row of numbers while the physical keyboard is in use, but would show a normal full keyboard when only using the soft keyboard. While I love the physical keyboard on the G2, I do miss my G1's 5th row. The way I was thinking this could be implemented is the same way swiftkey works. While using the physical keyboard it still shows predicted words that you can click. What I am describing (possibly not very well) is exactly what swiftkey does, but a row of numbers instead of predicted text.

Is this possible? If something like this already exists I do apologize, I searched around but could not find anything like this. Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gbpack2306:
Also this should probably be in themes/apps. I meant to put it there, just clicked on the wrong thing, feel free to move it!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] kludgineer:
No idea if it's possible, but I want it!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] connoisseur:

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] havikx:
DUDE!!! GENIUS! Thats is a Grade A, #1, winner idea.

if you dont know how to, contact some1 who does....
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] 21productionz:
+1 That is a great idea.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] WilliamStern:
Well, I really wouldn't want a row of numbers to take away from my screen real-estate while I'm browsing the web.

BUT! The G2 does have those new quick keys on it which may come in handy? All we need to is preset one of the quick keys to pop up the numbers row when pressed, and hide it when pressed again.

I think this is a great idea, and would love to see if this could be done. I don't see why someone cant make this into a VERY SIMPLE APP FOR THE G2?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gbpack2306:
Thanks! I'm glad people like the idea. If something doesn't come of this thread, I'll definitely look into finding someone to help.

While I certainly don't dislike this idea, and I would totally use it if someone developed it this way, I would prefer it be implemented more like I described above for a couple of reasons.

1. You say you don't want a row of number blocking part of your screen while browsing the web. The numbers, if implemented like SwiftKey does their suggestive text, would only come up when you are in a text field.

2. I don't know, but I feel like using the quick keys would require root, which we don't (permanently) have yet.

3. There are several other phones out there that could benefit from an app like this, such as the droid, droid 2, mytouch slide, etc because they also have a "full" four row keyboard. If we used the quick keys, they wouldn't be able to take advantage of this :(
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] raitchison:
+1 to the list of people who think this is a great idea. One of the G2's significant shortcomings is that the keyboard is only 4 rows, which makes typing numbers very cumbersome. This would be a great solution to that problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] bts11:
I agree this would be a great idea. Also adding in the spell check bar would make my day. Even with the physical keyboard I sometimes hit the wrong letter or just can't spell a word.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Abaddon2501:
Posting in a epic Thread.

Hope this become real.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] WDawn:
"Softkeyboard that only shows numbers while using physical keyboard" FTW!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Stryder5:
I hope you realize that hitting the alt key twice in a row will put it in a "Alt-lock" mode, so to speak. This will allow you to type numbers without having to hit alt after each number. Of course, you'll have to hit alt one more time to switch back to regular letters.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Corylulu:
its a good idea, but if you were to dedicate a key to it, it seems kinda pointless

I mean double-tap ALT will lock number keys. So it doesn't seem like that much of an issue.

great idea tho. How can we make it better?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] sinistersai4d4d:
Best idea since that app that fixed the white G1 backlit key issue lol. Finally have a pirpose for these dumb ass quick keys.

I'd gladly pay for this. I really hope something comes of this thread.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] liillliillliiii:
I made these tonight.

G2NumberKeyboard shows a number row whenever the keyboard is open.

G2NumberToggleKeyboard shows/hides the number row whenever you press and hold the right shift key.

It works ok, but has a few bugs (for instance, sometimes the number row doesn't appear without sliding the screen closed/open, sometimes the number row stays on-screen after leaving the input box, etc).

Install the apk then enable in Settings -> Keyboard

Give it a try and let me know/give feedback.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Stratrix:
brilliant!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] gbpack2306:
Wow dude, I had almost given up on this. I have used G2NumberKeyboard for a little bit this morning, and it seems to be working fine. I'll try the toggle one out today too. Thank you so much for this!!

For everyone who wants to use this I have suggestion also. If you want to keep Swype/SwiftKey/Whatever keyboard you normally use while in portrait mode and only have this keyboard in landscape mode, then go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=830177 and install the keyboard manager app. Follow all of the instructions there and then REBOOT. It would not work for me until I rebooted.

Again, liillliillliiii, thanks for making this. You are a gentleman and a scholar.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] wmdnc1990:
this is absolutely amazing... but i did come across the fact that the shift key and alt keys do not work... the arrow appears above or below the cursor but they do not allow the letters to become capitalized nor do they allow for the use of symbols...

any way to consider mapping it to the physical quick keys....i've still yet to find a use for them...
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mcp2009:
keyboard works great but while typing on keyboard and then pressing a number it erases what I typed. for example if I wanna type android1 after I type android when I press 1 it erases android
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Delta105RUS:
I tried the app and I think its a great idea exept some small bugs (alt, shift, if u want to put a # inside a word it will remove the word, cursor sometimes jumps when pressing space, and portrait mode is low rez); BUT! It's still is a useful app... fix still wouldn't hurt though
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] pjcforpres:
Great minds think alike! I just had this idea the other day not even knowing this thread existed!

Anyways, I will send a message off to Swype with this idea tomorrow. I have been a very active beta tester for them and get direct feedback to my input, so hopefully that person is someone with some level of power/respect and able to make this real.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] k3y.m8ney:
If you can get a fix on the alt and shift buttons to work it would be perfect
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] k3y.m8ney:
Update: the shift alt keys work somewhat. You have to press both buttons to get it to work. Press the shift while pressing the letter and it capitalizes. Same for alt.

I just got an Evo last week and I have been loving it aside from the battery issues. I just noticed that this evo only support 3 point multitouch and some users had claimed that 5 point multitouch works for them.

Runs great, but having some strange battery issues. Running the latest flipz rom and kings cfs #11 and the battery drops 20% within 10 minutes with hardly any use.

I performed a full reboot and didn't launch any apps and it did the same thing. I just Flashed netarchy-toastmod-4.1.9.1-cfs-havs-universal-signed so hopefully I get different results.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
20% in the first 10 minutes is a little unusual, most people's Evo's tend to drop 10%. It has something to do with the way the phone charges the battery, once it gets up to 100% it stops charging altogether (no trickle) and doesn't start charging again till the battery drops down till about 90% (I believe). If you unplug your phone at 100%, turn it off and plug it back in until the light turns green and then turn it back on, you should get a full charge out of it. Also, your phone is new, so I'm sure it hasn't profiled the battery fully yet, which is probably where that extra 10% is coming from. Give it a few days and I'm sure you'll see it level out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtadeo:
I haven't completely let it die out so that may be another problem. Lowest I have let this thing go is about 50%. I will try to drain it now, will report later.
