[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmr0385:
Ive tried different computers and different cables, as well as different drivers. Ive used 64bit systems and 32bit systems... XP and Vista.

The phone itself goes into download mode, though I have to go through the terminal and use 'reboot download'. I cant use command line on the computer as it doesnt find the device... the phone never is identified to it. It just charges.

Is there any way to perform the commands that ODIN does without actually using ODIN? If nothing else, Id like to flash back to JF6 and be able to use the OTA updates. At this point, Im stuck till clockwordmod works with 2.2.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captiv8Ed:
I experienced the same thing. My Captivate would charge, but it couldn't connect to any of three computers (WinXP w/drivers, Mac OS X, and Linux) with either of two micro usb cables I had. I would always get a USB error in some form.

I was on cog 2.1, and was able to roll back to the JH7 OTA update without ODIN. Afterward I brought it to an ATT Tech Center and convinced them it was a hardware failure.

I got a warranty replacement, and it didn't work either.

It turned out to be bad micro usb cables. One was the original Samsung cable, but it was loose, there was plenty of play and wiggle in the sockets of both phones.

The best micro usb cable I've found is from a Kindle. It has a a larger plastic base than the stock from Samsung, but critically it has a longer connector. There's a solid click when connected and absolutely no play or wiggle possible. It works every time.

I don't know if you can restore from 2.2 to JH7 without ODIN. Now that we have 2e Recovery on Froyo (in Cog 2.2 BETA6), could you use Clockwork Mod (Rom Manager) to flash designgear's JH7 OTA ROM?

Try some alternate micro USB cables, you might be surprised!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duhockey:
Im having the same issue, was there any resolution to this from the OP??

I suspect hardware also, and Ive got another Micro USB on order from Amazon and will prob buy one from a store tomorrow also.

the stock cable is horrible, I bought a nice charger the other day and it has a nice click and stay, and since I plugged it in to the new charger it no longer shows up on any computer with the stock cable. Im wondering if the new charger with a tad larger connector spread the connectors just a tad too far for the stock cord.

I tried everything as well, I hard rebooted, put into recovery mode and even deleted all my user data to try and see if there was some software that was blinding the computer to the connection... no luck

Ill let you know what I find.

:D

[Nexus One General] Gonesingle:
Okay i LOVE my nexus one and the evo is essentially another android phone so this is why im considering the switch ( i will never own a non-android phone!)

anywho, the reason for this isnt the phone itself. where i live, tmobile's service is crappy as hell! So the only phone that catches my eye is the evo. what do you guys think of the evo and sprint's coverage itself? 4G would be pretty cool too
[Nexus One General] norazi:
We really cant answer for you because in your area, sprint might have worse coverage or better coverage. You need to ask other users that live in your area. Ie I love Tmobile but I live in san fran I would switch carriers in a heartbeat

Evo sucks battery like a pool drain. Lasts about 3 hours.
[Nexus One General] brownmc77:
Thats bs, 3 hours is a huge exaggeration. Battery drain is a thing of the past. With the newest ota ive been getting 12 hours heavy use. But with the help of roms been getting 22 hours MINIMUM , with moderate to heavy use. 98% of evo owners are extremely happy with their evo's. Dont let this guy discourage you, almost 100% sure that you wont be disappointed.
[Nexus One General] androidaddict23:
I have a nexus one for sell three silicone cases prestine condition.
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
AT&T Bands or T-Mobile?
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
Nice screen, kind of huge phone. I hear the battery is beyond bad. Personally I don't like Sense UI but that is easily remedied. I would see who has the best coverage in you area and go from there. T-mobile isn't even an option where I live hardly any coverage at all. Sprint has great coverage here and the 3G is fast too. Verizon also has good coverage and 3G here. AT&T has only Edge where I live. Many factors to consider.
[Nexus One General] Quantumstate:
LOL, suit yerself...
[Nexus One General] elkyur:
Evo is worser than nexus one:

1. Worser battery life

2. Worser fps rate and benchmark

I saod allredy all, If you are money waster and dumb go on. The choise upon you.

You are worser than basic mac user.
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
Don't listen to this troll. He doesn't even know "worser" isn't a word. Buy what makes you happy!
[Nexus One General] elkyur:
With happy, you mean that chemical reaction in the brain.

Well well... I dont care about it.

I care about processor inside the device

This is what I don't understand. Sitting in front of a computer screen gives you the right to say whatever **** you want? How the hell is this related to mac users??? Stop playing computers and go sign up for some spelling class. Please.
[Nexus One General] flappjaxxx:
You are an idiot
[Nexus One General] jeallen0:
If signal reception is your ONLY concern then by all means go for it. IMHO Evo4G sucks epic. Its android yes, but its by no means an N1 replacement. Quadrant scores are lower and batt life is like having double a's in a hugh ass maglight, it just doesnt make sence. You could rom it with CM6 but it will never ever get close to how smooth and clean a N1 looks and runs. I have my hands on alot of Evo's almost daily and would never even think of downgrading. Tmob might have spotty service but thats a small price to pay for owning an epic phone.
[Nexus One General] jeallen0:
Btw, elkyur is a pethic troll, please disregard anything and everything he has to say.
[Nexus One General] going_home:
What is pethic ? :confused:

I think elkyurs 1st language is not English.

Thus the disjointed sentences/posts.

[Nexus One General] jeallen0:
He has trolled other posts to the point where people became un-interested in the content. Check the post about the poor n1 posted by crusher16.
[Nexus One General] kamasi36:
Your opinion is your right. I have an Evo and nexus. The Evo is a great device. I love the option of the front camera as I use it a lot for video calling. Watching video with more rel-estate is nice. I think flash runs better on the Nexus, but overall coverage Sprint wins 4G over 10mb download speeds. the over saturation of color is noticeable Nexus Vs. Evo, but no big deal. Battery life is fine with the 2.2 update plus custom Roms wifi hotspot is free(5 devices). I love both devices, I had a chance to get the epic, but I prefer Sense over any other UI and Samsung's record for updates is terrible. HTC is the way to go for Android. It's kind of synonymous with Android. The original G1 on to the Nexus, then the Evo, Desire, Incredible, and HD Desire all stellar devices. I got the Evo because i think it's more customizable and futuristic for apps that use the front camera and huge screen. In my opinion it isn't a side grade like the Vibrant, but a legitimate upgrade with a better camera, dual led flash, 4G capable etc. Plus the quality hardware is solid like the Nexus, not all plastic and **** like the Vibrant. I've tried the Vibrant for almost a month, didn't like all the bugs(even rooted). To each its own.

I messaged him today on Twitter about the release date for 6.1 and he replied with..

"CM 6.1 feature freeze will be this Sunday, then it's all bug fixes and refinements. Get your patches in now"

What does feature freeze mean? What does he mean by getting your patches in?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JTNiggle:
He means they will not be adding any more features or apps. Just making what's there run as smooth as possible.

There is still no release date for the Captivate in Canada. We've been getting dicked around by Roger's for quite a while now. Until then, work your magic guys! Thanks for the excellent job!

It sounds like this could be released very soon. Was there any mention as to what will be included with 6.1?

Thanks again!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viroscope:
answer

When he says there is a feature freeze it means that they will stop adding new features and begin prepping for a release. And when he said get your patches in he assumed you where one of the devs but it means that Anny bug fixes you may have made while using a nightly send them in so that the releasevwill not have those bugs.

My upgrade day is April 2012. So... I've got a bit of a way.

I wouldn't mind a Dinc, but they probably won't be around then. Maybe a Dinc II if such a device exists by then. I think I'll stick to HTC at this point. Motorola is no good with the locked bootloader.

I just d/l it in market. Does anyone know if it currently works without having u-verse at home? I thought i read for win phone 7 that u wouldnt have to pay for it if u already had it at home would be included.

Im all for paying just didnt see anything on account management for it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] keitht:
What are you going to use it for if you don't have u-verse service?

I can confirm that this works on an EVO and Incredible.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jc2470:
They said on windows phone 7 it would beable to d/l movies to watch and said would be free if u were a u-verse home user. Like as in u could subscribe to the mobile service to watch movies from it like ondemand
[Captivate Themes and Apps] nooomoto:
I read that where Windows Phone 7 is concerned that if you don't currently have U-Verse service at home you'd be able to pay some sort of fee and use the limited version of it on your phone. But thats all that was said about it. We can assume this might be something exclusive to WP7 as it appears that AT&T is putting a lot of weight behind the platform.

As far as the Android version, I have U-Verse, and have yet to find any shows or movies that I'm allowed to download to my phone for later viewing. It first requires activation of the service via "manage account", which I did after getting errors the first few times about their systems not being ready or whatever. Then when it worked, I went into my DVR and could download NONE of the programs I have recorded. Apparently downloading is limited to a certain selection of programs. Unfortunately theres no information about what shows, channels, etc can do this.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] nooomoto:
UPDATE: Ok...so theres very few shows that are available for download. Most of them are Disney Channel stuff, few Animal Planet/TLC/Discovery Channel shows, some ABC stuff.

From ATT Uverse on Facebook:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] flashman2002:
Download content is only available if you have the U300 package. 100 and 200 are not able to see anything beyond their DVR content.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] gmanunited:
Works great. Glad to see AT&T is supporting Android a little bit.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bp787:
The app works MUCH better than the web page on the captivate. As for the downloadable content, until they get stuff on there that is actually interesting, I'm certainly not upping my uverse package to the U300.

I do hope that they get it to the point where I can stream my DVR recordings to my phone. Now THAT would be sweet!

Another bonus, a friend has the U300 package. He let me use his account login info to watch the downloadable videos as needed. NICE :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jc2470:
I talked to a main att guy over all the stores where i live, and he said that the mobile service is strictly for Windows phone 7 its exclusive right now that u dont need home u verse for it and u can d/l stuff from web with it only on wifi though. and that if u have u verse at home its free and of course can access all that stuff to.

All other phones including iphone will only beable to use app if you are a home u verse user no mobile service for any of those. Windows phone 7 comes with it in a tile and its a feature to enable to d/l content from att's u-verse, i guess on demand stuff.

[Windows Mobile] Grumps:
Ive searched and found some information also tried kheb but now im even more confused.

When RUN CC runs it shows an orange screen

It then briefly shows another screen and then the orange one again with some text saying preparing device for first use

What I want to know which file is which and which ones shows when.

The next question is about manila and today screen and lock screen. I changed all of them and got the following with kheb:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Desktop]

"wallpaper"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (13).jpg"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"HomeBackgroundPath"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (6).jpg"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today]

"Wall"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (1).jpg"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCSettings_Improvement]

"LockWallpaperBackup"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (13).jpg"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]

"MSBitmap"="\\windows\\Windows_Logo.jpg"

I though the screen behind manila is the same as the lock screen but in here i see a today screen, a lock paperbackup, wall and msbitmap

Can i please get some clarity on all this?

i know the last entry is the startup splash screen which i think is the one that shows inbetween the two orange ones from run cc. Should i make that one and the two orange ones the same to get only one pic or is it normal for run cc to be soooo ugly?

Essentially what i would like to know :

How to cook manila wallpaper in the rom

how to set the lock screen wallpaper (OBOE) i swa n reg entry but dont know if i can just change it

Set startup logo (the one that shows when the phone starts up after the gif file is played)

How to set today screen wallpaper?

3. Then shows the Welcome Logo (shows everytime you restart) called welcomehead.192.png on rhodium but can be found under WindowsBuild\All\WhateverDPI\file.png im sure its different for different phones

4. Then Runs CC and shows the RunCC_default_bg_480_800.jpg file (can eb found under EXT\Run CC folder with its own progress bar files called runcc_progress-00 to runcc_progress-15.bmp

Ill report the rest when i figure them out ... wallpapers etc
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinlferguson:
Hello again everyone,

Today while looking at settings-->"SD and Phone Storage", Astro File manager and talking with a friend thats using a capivate phone i was wonderning about the phones internal storage and its relation to the SD card.

Is the internal Phone storage the same as the SD card except obvously you cant upgrade or remove the phone storage?

If a ROM upgrade or different ROM install is preformed will i loose the files on the Internal Phone storage?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkTharen:
NO, you will not loose your files on your internal storage by flashing a ROM. What might happen is the ROM doesn't yet support internal storage (most do now). Then you would not be able to access or use the internal storage even though the files are there. Like others have said make sure you read the channel logs and known issues log to see if the rom does support the internal storage. I hope this helps.
