[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Hi all,

Sorry for the noob question but I have looked in my SGS under settings > phone information and I see things like my IMEI, etc but nothing showing as the "Product Code".

I have never flashed a new firmware that was not official to Bell Mobility and Canada but I have done the registry hack to reflash JH2 so I could fix my missing 3 button recovery in the past. Should this have changed my product code?

Please advise how I can see it...

Thanks... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
this is the correct product code for the I9000M

"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKABMC"

Thank You but where do I look in my phone to see it? I cant find it anywhere?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
it's in the registry

meanwhile on this topic...

can some one confirm the product codes for the other models?

Thanks

Open your "Phone Dialer" and type in *#1234#.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toansta:
i'm using SGS toolbox to show my product code but i don't know which one to read.

it says:

Copied nv_data files...

product code in nv_data.bin:

I900HKAKOR

then it also says

Product code in backup.nv_data.bak:

I9000HKAOPS

my question is whats wrong with KOR and why do people want to avoid it? and also which one am i suppose to read what says the one i have? and if i have KOR how do i change it to OPS?

sorry for being a noob, thanks in advance

[Epic 4G Accessories] Tito13kfm:
Just a quick review.

The Dryshield is basically like a regular Skinomi skin but you can apply it completely dry. It doesn't come with any solution, only a "microfiber wet wipe", which is basically a wetnap you would get from KFC to clean your hands.

Aligning this thing was nearly impossible as you have absolutely no way of sliding it in to place. After trying unsuccessfully about 5 times to do it dry I wetted it with some water. This made installation a TON easier, but had a horrible side effect of streaking in the adhesive. I hope it clears up over time, but I fear I may have wasted $20.

Lesson learned: Buy a normal "wet" skin if you are going to install one. The dryshield sounds like a great product, but is basically impossible to install properly

EDIT/UPDATE: Got sick of looking at the extreme fogging and feeling the orange peel effect under my finger. Ripped it off my phone and in to the trash it went. Yep, waste of $20.

I'm debating buying anything else as I can NEVER get screen protectors to how I like them, and the gorilla glass seems to be more scratch resistant than anything I've experienced.
[Epic 4G Accessories] churro7:
dang get another one? refund?

i used the wet version i wanted to switch for dry but after this post nvm
[Epic 4G Accessories] betatech:
x2 on that one
[Epic 4G Accessories] Tito13kfm:
Not going to try for a refund, as it is most certainly user error. I'm certain that if I was a surgeon working in a clean room with a tsquare, a level, and laser sights I could have gotten it on properly. But my fast fingers, impatience, and bad luck with random dust killed this cover for me.
[Epic 4G Accessories] Tito13kfm:
Just a quick update. I let skinomi know of my dissatisfaction and they offered to send me an original techskin free of charge as they have noticed a number of users who cannot install the dryshield without problems.

That was extremely nice if them and they did not need to do anything. I will be sure to remember this gesture when I advise family and friends on their phones.
[Epic 4G Accessories] churro7:
Skinomi is good on that

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lookgod88:
hi all,

i have 2 questions:-

1. mine d2 was original 6.1 english and i upgrade it to 6.5 english on last nov. from htc site. for some reason i want to change it back to official chinese (since my friend's d2 is chinese so i can have his serial number to download from htc site). is this possible? what i mean is other than the rom is different between chinese and english but the rest of everything in d2 is same?

2. if it is possible. then in case error occur during the process to change to chinese rom, can i flash (call this progress "flash" i guess) back to the english?

any reply would be appreciated.

lookgod88
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chacik:
It is possible to flash a different rom than the original one. Once you download appropriate file from htc website using Chinese TD2 serial, you will have to unlock you Topaz using hard-spl. Otherwise you'll get an error message during flashing (no other consequences, you'll still have your "old" rom). You can find more about flashing a new rom in the forum section dedicated to rom developement. Good luck!
[Nexus One General] ksc6000:
It seems everyone here, looking forward to their next android device, want something 4" or above.

I would've expected that 4" or above would be for a small percentage, like a niche, and most people would want another 3.7 inch screen.

If there ever is a Nexus 2, or whatever the next Google dev phone, I would prefer it to be the same size as the Nexus One, I think it's the perfect size for a phone.

Anyone with me?

*tumbleweed rolls by*
[Nexus One General] twflys:
Just a tad too small for me. If it had a 4" screen it would be easier to surf the web, type emails, read word documents, etc.
[Nexus One General] herrwinkler:
I like phones one size and a tablet another. The Nexus is a good size. In the world of Android devices, it's old and it's still the best. Maybe it could use a front facing camera but, who uses those anyway?

N2:

Front facing camera

More internal memory

Faster processer

Same Vanilla goodness

Minor tweaks on a GREAT phone.
[Nexus One General] Ebonwumon:
I love the form factor. Four inches is too much for me.

-Sent from my Nexus One Superphone.
[Nexus One General] kpjimmy:
NSFW LOL :D

I agree, compared with the droid phone this thing is perfect width wise.....man I can see ppl googling me and finding this quote...*sigh*
[Nexus One General] TheoSqua:
Yep, i love the size of the Nexus One. Phones like the HTC EVO are just a little too big for my taste.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
3.7" is too small.

4" is great and easy to pocket.

4.3" is even better from a usability standpoint, but obviously more difficult to pocket.

When I'm at the gym doing cardio, I place my N1 on the machine so I can watch videos hands-free. But some machines have the back panel just too far so that the 3.7" screen looks tiny. A tablet would be great, but I don't have the money for a phone AND a tablet, let alone the fact that there are no tablets anyway.

A 4.3" screen would be great for this.
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
I love the N1. Fits in my pocket well. The screen in landscape is great to type on and I'm a big guy with big hands. Typing in portrait mode is a little tight but thats why spell check and prediction are great. I've had a lot of phones and I know there are newer phones with all these great specs and whatnot, but I haven't seen one that has made me want to ditch my N1. Haven't looked back since I bought it in March.
[Nexus One General] Quantumstate:
I'm trying to think it's the perfect size, and it is as a phone and a pocketable device.

OTOH I'm thinking about a car mount and want a long gooseneck so it'll be within 2' of my face so I can see Trapster. Want this gooseneck to swivel down beside the console so I don't look like a dork on dates, but there is no such thing as a swivel with gooseneck. This makes me suspicious the screen is too small.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
My N1 is the perfect width wise for my hand, pocket, car mount, and her tight azz jeans :eek::D
[Nexus One General] vinnyjr:
Nexus One owner and I also think it is the perfect size. I bought the G2 thinking I was missing out on something, I found out very fast that the Nexus One is IMO the better looking, build quality is top notch and as far as the keyboard is concerned, don't really use it, I use Vlingo for just about everything on both phones. The Nexus One is a phone I just will never give up. No matter what device comes out in the future, will always keep the Nexus One.

PS. If all the app developers would allow their apps to be moved to the memory card the only down side to the Nexus would not be an issue.
[Nexus One General] elkyur:
I dont thng internal memory is solution , i am using cm6 with i can put every app to my class 10 16gb sdcard
[Nexus One General] marianne18:
Agree. Nexus's size is perfect for me.
[Nexus One General] santoshgs:
The N1's size is just right for me! I love using phones in one hand, and when I tried the Galaxy S for a couple of weeks, I always had problems accessing the top of the screen with my thumb. With the N1, I can just touch the top enough to dismiss notifications.

4" screens are only nice when you wanna watch videos, but watching videos is not really what I do on my N1 anyway.
[Nexus One General] frandavid100:
Sometimes I wish it were a bit smaller for day-to-day use, at least for my taste.
[Nexus One General] dew.man:
Almost prefect as is. Trim the "fat" on the bottom, and then it's perfect. I want the 3.7 screen with about 1/8 of trim around it! When I need a bigger screen, I get my tablet out..
[Nexus One General] vzontini:
I really like the size of the N1. I've tried the Droid, Droid X, Evo, Incredible, Vibrant, Galaxy slider, and more but nothing so far is making me want to spend the money for a new device.
[Nexus One General] bigmout:
I wish it were just a hair wider. I notice the slight difference between iPhone and N1 when typing in portrait mode.
[Nexus One General] elmerendeiro:
You know what I wish?

I wish they start making smartphones with no space between the screen and the end of the chassis...so a 4,3" screen phone would have the size of a nexus...and it would look awesome to me...imagine to have the only screen in your hands

Erase that useless boarders!
[Nexus One General] tameracingdriver:
Only problem with that is, as I found out with the SGS, which is sort of quite close to how you described, is that when you pick it up, if say the screen is already on, the edges of your hands (i.e. the flabby bits of your palms) catch the incredibly sensitive touch screen resulting in you often running things you didnt mean to run (like the browser who's icon was in the bottom right of the screen).

The idea sounds good in theory but in reality I dont think it'd work, it would be a nightmare IMO :p
[Nexus One General] elmerendeiro:
yeah that's a problem...at least minimize that space, don't know but that boarders look too 80's to me
[Nexus One General] Teidullie:
Perfect size

Im going to have to agree with the OP I love the size of my phone and i think 4" would be just a bit to big.
[Nexus One General] kaiser_tytnii:
it is, especially for one hand operation
[Nexus One General] norazi:
i thought that when i first got it but i thought the iphone 1g (3.5") was the perfect size when i first got that too... i still think that 4.3" is too large (evo, epic) but my next phone will probably be 4"
[Nexus One General] KROMO50:
3.7 is perfect for me.
[Nexus One General] dynamikd:
Perfect size, larger doesn't mean better. In fact larger becomes more cumbersome to handle.
[Nexus One General] starfarer:
Definitely will go with 4" in future. Currently speaker volume on N1 is way too low.
[Nexus One General] gqkevyn:
Yeah I have to agree that I'm not fond of the 4.3" or the 3.5". I think I could live with 4", but I would prefer the 3.7" or maybe even 3.8" like the myTouch HD(4G whatever it's called).
[Nexus One General] irishrally:
Definitely will go with 4" in the future. My feet are strong.
[Nexus One General] sl8125:
once i put a case around it. it feels better. it was little thin. but with case i like it alot. i would like a larger screen but after seeing the evo's 4.3" screen i will pass.
[Nexus One General] lambasurm:
not only size!

imho the thickness and weight are perfect, too :D

...and let's not forget the finger-friendly rubberized back ;)

i love my N1, N2 has a lot to live up to
[Nexus One General] ericc191:
For me, a 3.8 inch screen is the perfect size.
[Nexus One General] ChongoDroid:
I think if they could fit a 4 inch on it without making it wider, like filling up more of the face with screen then she would be perfect plus the new specs of course (tegra)
[Nexus One General] Fresh & Minty:
I had an HD2 before my nexus one, and the 4.3" screen was a little too big for me. Plus how thin it was compared to how big it was made it feel like it was gonna snap or crack...... idk, just my opinion. I think 3.7" is a great size and probably wouldn't need much larger :)
[Nexus One General] stuff:
4" would be great. 4.3 is still fine with me. I'll take all the space I can get.
[Nexus One General] Roadrunner1911:
I agree with you about overall size no matter what size screen can be fitted to the case.About four inches is the max for me,anything larger is just plain awkward and inconvenient to pocket.

Hi

Can anyone tell me how to make an update.zip file to change vodafones boot animation?

I would like to have the stock animation or a custum animation.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] waz000000:
don't think this has been done yet as the images used on Samsung bootup are something like QMG images but there isn't a converter readily available yet
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Pegart:
Wait, what? It's impossible even if we want to remove/change the boot? How come there are some threads explaining to change the boot sequence? And, I have a bunch of PNG Vodafone images on my phone.

PS: Why isn't there any response in all of the threads regarding changing/removing the boot sequence :confused: ? Newbie here. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] webstar1:
Hi Pegart, i have no knowledge of custom boot animations but here is what i know.

Samsung Galaxy i9000 is very different from other android phones in the way the system is. The boot animation pngs you see are the shutdown ones and you could change it. With SGS tools (available free in market) you can change boot sounds. The startup is in qmg in which there is no way to change yet. over in the vibrant forums they are working on it and i think they have done it and you should ask in the vibrant forums how they done it which might help you :)

Hope this information helped you
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Pegart:
Great, thanks for the answer. Much appreciated. Will check the Vibrant subforum.
[Droid X General] godsafk:
Hello everyone,

I have seen a number of different posts about the best settings to encode videos for the Droid X, and I have found a method that I am extremely happy with. I use these settings to encode HD MKV files for playback on the Droid X. These encodings play without a hitch, and only suffer slight sync issues that occur when changing volume, and skipping forwards/backwards into the video. This is not a huge problem, as the sync issues only last for 1-2 seconds maximum. I have tested a large variety of Video players, and I have found that RockPlayer offers the smoothest playback available (in my experience). These settings will also work for many other file types, just make sure your Source resolution is higher than that of your output and you will be pleased!

Software Required: MediaCoder (Free, can be downloaded HERE)

Settings

Video Tab:

Format: H.264

Mode: Constant Bitrate (1400)

Source: Auto Select

Encoder: Auto Select (If your video card supports CUDA, select CUDA Encoder for faster encoding).

x264 Tab (On the right when selecting the Video Tab):

Profile: Baseline (This is extremely important!)

Sound Tab:

Encoder: FAAC

Format: LC-AAC

Average Bitrate: 160

MPEG Version: MPEG4

Container: AAC

Container Tab:

Container: MP4

Picture Tab:

Resize: 848x480

Aspect Ratio: Keep Display AR

Crop: Disabled

Frame Rate: 25

Effects: Filter by Encoder

I hope these settings will come in handy for others. I have spent a lot of time testing different settings and Encoders, but I can honestly say I have gotten the best results using these!

Let me know how these settings work for you, I hope some of you can help me find a video player that will not show any issues when changing volume and skipping forward/backwards through videos.

Re: Android Installation Issue

Dear Pros,

Kindly, I would like to inform that I have a problem when I want to install Android on my TP2 I get an error when I run the "Haret.exe" which is "Launch a script file. Default path is the same where the executable lives. default.txt" and next to "default.txt there is (Run), so when I click on "Run" a message appear "Cannot open script file \Storage Card\default.txt" . Morever, under that there's something called "Start waiting for connection on port 9999 when you connect, you'll get a remote hardware examination tool. That's it .. ?!!

So, would someone tell me how to install Android 2.2 .. ?!!

By the way, I've already installed Dual-Boot, but the issue now how install it without any problems.

Last thing .. If I run Android and use it always, so I will spoil the battery like this way .. ?!!

Thanks a lot to you.

Your Brother,

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] noodles21o2:
use the startup utility and then just check the path to haret.exe, if you would rather use dual boot then make sure haret in on root of sd card

and as for the battery, using android could spoil it as it would change charging habits
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] arrrghhh:
No, the default.txt error is happening because you don't have a startup.txt. Please copy the startup.txt over for your device per the FAQ.
