[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irock1985:
Going to try out Android today for the first time(hopefully) and since this new rom was released yesterday(tmobile US) I was wondering should i just skip it and go straight to cooked roms or should i do this update first and then proceed from there?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
if you have compatible Radio version on your device you don't need to use this Rom Update to get Android!

If not yes you can use this rom, but way you will use a stock rom is Custom rom can give you even access on WM 6.5.X instead of the older WM 6.5!?
[Networking] dark_angelfighter17:
Hi i dont kno much about networking myself but does anyone know of a way to tether a WM 6.5.x device to a PS3 to give the PS3 3g internet?

any other ps3/ WM stuff welcome tnks
[Networking] deathsled:
well it would be no different than wifi tethering a PC to a WM 6.5 device.

Here are some instructions: http://tinyurl.com/2elf5jd
[Networking] Anderdroid:
Hmm. That's not the right time for a lmgtfy.

It's not an easy thing to find out.

My guess is NO, from my experience. Most Windows Mobile WiFi tether apps ONLY do AD HOC. I don't think the PS3 can connect to AD HOC.

Get an Android :P
[Networking] janus zeal:
Android broadcasts as Ad Hoc as well doesn't it?
[Captivate General] EWP000:
I have the Captivate for almost 2 months, but I think this issue is valid for all Galaxy S phones.

Some weeks ago it appeared a stain/smudge on the middle of the screen that can be easily seen with a light color background. Also, I noticed that its seen even with the phone turned off. See both photos attached.

I use invisibleSHIELD. Since the stain is noticed even with the screen turned off, I'm wondering if it may come from the protector instead of the screen itself.

It would be easy if I removed the protector, but if I do so, I'll loose it.

Has somebody had that problem?

May it come from the screen protector?

Thanks
[Captivate General] climber1872000:
I would imagine that it's the screen protector and the actual phone screen. Just take the screen protector off.
[Captivate General] majinzen:
I don't have this problem but you can remove the screen protector and reapply it easily. Just use tape to lift it off the glass and rinse in a bowl of warm water with a drop of dish soap to clean and reapply. I've done this to my screen protector 5 or 6 times for various reasons.
[Captivate General] Evilspawn:
yes my friend this is caused by the screen protector. mine had the same issue. apperantly its from using the squeegy tooo hard!
[Captivate General] DaveNavy:
Could be your LCD Has a burned in Image

If you remove your screen protector and still notice the screen smudge try tilting the phone slightly to get a good angle and try o see if the smudge is internal, if it is I would say its a bleeding LCD, I had this issue with a HTC tilt at&t sent me and they sent me a brand new one free of charge.
[Captivate General] EWP000:
It was applied by a authorized ZAGG reseller. I watched and he didn't use it too hard. Any way, I'll remove it.

You had this problem with a invisibleSHIELD by ZAGG protector too or other?
[Captivate General] EWP000:
When you had this problem with HTC, were you still able to see the smudge?
[Captivate General] matt310:
What kind of case is that? It looks very slim and pretty cool!
[Captivate General] dngen:
It should be covered under warranty still. Their site offers a 1 year warranty so you should be able to take it back to the seller and get a new one installed free
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
Its the case from at&t, its like a silicon plastic thing. Lol. I got it too.
[Captivate General] compuguy1088:
I have this same issue with my HTC Magic, that has a screen protector on it. There is a similar mark,smudge on my screen, as a result of a particularly large raindrop hitting my phone. Based on this thread, I can breath a sigh of relief that it didn't damage the screen! :eek:

The tilt is a whole different beast... the Samsung is a capacitive touch screen while the tilts were pressure touch...

So right now im on JP1 and want to flash JPM.

Is there a systematic way of knowing/finding out what settings i need for Odin 1.3?

ie, how do u know if u need a Phone or CSC File?

when is Re-partition required?

the "BIG FAQ!" has instructions but myself (and others, im sure) just follow it blindly.

thanks ppl :)

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] api1996:
Hey guys. I have one quick question. If I want to unroot my phone with an ruu exe file, will it work if I have a custom recovery installed (clockwork)? When I need to unroot, I want it to restore everything completely to stock, the recovery too. I am not sure that an ruu will work if I have a custom recovery installed. Will it work and will it replace the custom recovery with the stock one?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] api1996:
Really? No answers? Someone has to know the answer. If u know just tell me, a simple yes would be fine.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
The version of the custom recovery is irrelevant. You might find that despite that, however, that the RUU utility either complains about a "software version" problem, or it may fail to place the phone in RUU mode (aka oem-78).

The first part - whether or not the RUU likes what it finds depends in part on the past history of the phone - in particular, prior use of the "Root Leak PB00IMG.zip" ROM can prevent use of the MR1, MR2, and "Official" versions of the RUU utility. The jcase "Flash Any RUU" method can reset the state in the "misc" partition that causes those troubles, however.

The second part - the bit about RUU/OEM-78 mode has to do with what version of the "reboot" command is on the phone (/system/bin/reboot), which depends on the custom ROM you have, not the custom recovery.

So, the short answer is NO, the custom recovery makes not one difference for the RUU or PB00IMG.zip methods; and the long answer is you still might run in to trouble with the RUU (but possibly not the PB00IMG.zip+HBOOT method derived from the very same RUU, if the issue is incompatibility of the "reboot" command).

But, lookit here:

Every one of the Leak-V x ROMs and their corresponding RUU installers can be re-rooted with the "One-Click" method after they have been installed - so why don't you just TRY IT and post up your results?

bftb0
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] api1996:

I get so far with running Hard SPL V7 but it ends up with the 3 colour bands on my phone (plus white) while running RUUWrapper.exe from a pc.

I then get the error

"ERROR [[260]] : CONNECTION

This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading the CE ROM image.

Solution: You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again. "

I've followed the advice here and tried again but nothing seems to do any good. The phone disconnects from Active Sync everytime.

Is there something else I can try?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] alfarom:
I've continued with this but still get the connection problem no matter what I do. The advice for the 260 error seems more in hope than expectation. Surely just doing something that doesn't work again and again is a definition of madness??

[Vibrant General] Bikram:
Hi,

I am thinking of buying a used Vibrant. What are the things that I should look for when buying? I heard about yellow spots on the screen, in few hand set. How can I verify that? Is there any other handset specific problems?

Thanks

Bikram
[Vibrant General] oka1:
These are the obvious

Chk These:

No obvious signs of abuse (take a magnifying glass and really look)

Chk the screen

Phone works put your sim in and chk

Chk speakerphone

Chk the player

Chk to see if android market works / the net

Those are the obvious
[Vibrant General] DannyDoan:
I bought a used Vibrant locally.

He had it factory reseted for me and I check everything.

From SIM card usage to speaker. Camera and firmware + baseband in case anything was out of the ordinary. I used a magnifying glass to check for scratches. Remember the Vibrant has 2 cases for the back cover. Make sure you check both because shady people may put the mint one on and leave the other one in the box.

Don't ever think to yourself that you're over looking things. If the seller is annoyed by what your doing, keep doing what you're doing. He's the one getting paid, not you.
[Vibrant General] boomerbubba:
Find out if the phone has ever been rooted or otherwise modded. What is its software state now? If it has been modded, do you have the skills to restore the phone to stock? Even if you have all those skills and are comfortable flashing and modding, you probably want to know its history and current state.
