[Captivate General] rahulbg:
Hi every one,

I bought my new captivate for ATT about 2 days back. The wifi connection worked fine and the internet was running on the first day. But from the second day, for the same wifi, even though it gets connected, the internet does work. None of the apps that require internet (browser, market, facebook etc.,) work. Also, the internet would work fine in my home network. So, does any body face the same issue? Or if any one out there know a solution for this? Please do let me know as i dont want to use much on 3g as i have a limited data plan.

Please do help me out guys. I guess there are more people facing the same problem. Please do respond if you got it fixed.

Ready to contribute if it is fixed.

Thanks

Did app2SD work on 2.1 official's ROM (rooted)??
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jncevcosta:
I want to know too :)

I tried searching all over googleverse and youtube but not luck on a guide on how to open a G2 to replace a LCD. so this is my last resort at looking for an answer. does anyone have a guide or can tell me that its simple to disassemble the device?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] xKERNALx:
Sadly, I wouldn't think there would be a simple fix to a screen like this, simply because of the hinge, although I could be wrong. What happened to the phone, these things have only been out for like a month.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Willie133:
Maybe OP was doing some durabilitiy test... or he was like his avy and fell off the skateboard crushing it =[
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] solidmac:
lol no, I was going to buy one off some guy on ebay to fix for my GF but so far no dice on the repair guide.

repair guide? LMAO

i think you're going to have to make your own repair guide

What do you think about the screen bezel? I'd love to get it off and have it and the batt cover anodized.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] xKERNALx:
Sadly karma has stricken me for posting in this thread I assume. I had a Zagg Invisibleshield installed, and the "solution" got underneath my screen and has messed it up.

Anyone ever find a replacement for this?

Also I was thinking of calling HTC but figured they wouldnt fix it.

Tear down is here:

BE SUPER CAREFUL WITH THE MICROSD RIBBON CONNECTOR. 2 pins on mine got messed up and now the vibration doesn't work...so be aware/be careful!

http://cgi.ebay.com/TMOBILE-G2-HTC-...Cell_Phones&hash=item35aeb64eae#ht_500wt_1156

Here's one you can use as spare parts/replacement screen. If you do get this, I might want to buy the main-board off you to repair the stupid microSD connector...ugh, still can't believe I broke 2 pins on it!

Thanks!

[Desire Android Development] Muskie:
Hey guys, I'm trying to tinker with the recently-released Telstra-Branded Froyo ROM so I can check on some of the data inside and modify T-Mod to suit, but I've come across two very strange problems:

1: Extracting the update form the RUU gives me naught but a .img file which I have no clue how to open (I know it's a filesystem image, but I haven't been able to find tools to open it)

2: The OTA version of the update, while easily viewable, seems to use a .p file based patching system that I have never seen before.

If anyone can help me with these two problems by providing me with either the tools to decompile the RUU into something I can actually look at, such as tools for android's .img filesystem format, or a decrypted version of this ROM, it would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a copy of unYAFFS, figured it all out. just had to figure out what the filesystem on the RUU was.
[Desire Android Development] wiggles87:
Edit: I see you found it..
[Desire Android Development] melben:
I know you're sorted now Muskie, but using dsixda's kitchen is also a useful tool.

Run the ruu until the menu comes up, go to your temp folder and copy the rom.zip and whack it in the kitchen.

[Windows Phone 7 General] jedix:
been a member here for a while now and not really had much input so I'd thought I would start :) I can here looking for hints/tips but seem to find more guys moaning about why wp7 isnt working on there old monster.

Zune and wp7 seems to work great together and so easy to drag and drop stuff around, I've kinda replaced media players now just to keep it all neat in 1 place. But the most annoying thing was outlook syncing.

HTC phoned me today and told me there's some nice stuff they are bringing out soon and the htc sync should be ready soon which (hopefully) will fix some bits and microsoft will of course be doing a lot more work.

The easiest way to sync data up from outlook 97/2010 I found was to use hotmail. Once you added the outlook connector (ofcourse you need to be using hotmail with an account), is to drag your contacts into your hotmail address book. On the phone just like with facebook you connect up hotmail and sync your data. Do bear in mind if like most of your hotmail and facebook contacts, it will just show an email address. I deleted all these in outlook itself and copy/pasted MY address book to the hotmail folder version.

If I think of anything else thats handy i'll post them also. Hope this helps a few of you (if its already been posted I couldnt find it so sorry).
[Windows Phone 7 General] bigzebowski:
or export your contacts to a file from outlook, and import them to google and sync it with WP7

calendar, do a same thing, export and use google sync to import it to a google calendar and sync it with the phone
[Windows Phone 7 General] chubnut:
Or set up a hosted Exchange account for your personal mails, and (if you have Outlook 2010) have both home and work exchange accounts active and open on one profile and drag and drop from 1 calander/contact list to the other - the same as you would if you had a Live account and Outlook connector installed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
Bear in mind using hotmail and the outlook connector only allows you to sync calendar, email and contacts. Your outlook notes and tasks will not sync and there currently seems to be no way of getting them to sync. You can abandon Outlook notes and use OneNote instead though, but there doesn't seem to be a solution for tasks, which is a shame because that is the app I use the most and I'm really going to miss it (so much as that I'm going to continue having my HD2 with me just for my task list!).

Hopefully Microsoft will enable task sync from Outlook to Hotmail soon, and put a Tasks app on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] chubnut:
In the same boat here. Have yet to move over to One Note for the notes but I've I'm not mistaken, you can use it for tasks too, although I've not seen or done this.
[Vibrant General] kuhan:
Okay, so Blah, Blah, everyone posts about their terrible battery life.

Nobody's got a thing on me. I don't think ANYBODY has battery life as bad as mine. I must be doing SOMETHING wrong...

EDIT: I should note that this started from 98% and not 100%, but still...

EDIT2:

What was running:

I played Angry Birds for 15 minutes

I think TweetDeck may have been running.

I quit LauncherPro and was using stock home so as to close the widgets.

I ended most of the unnecessary running services

Everything was off (Except... you know... receiving phone calls, etc.)

I don't have 3G

Dude if you're on contract with tmo, just get a replacement battery. Because that batt is fubar'd.

[Vibrant General] kuhan:
That's what I would do... If I was on contract with T-Mobile. Unfortunately I'm not.

Fortunately, OEM batteries are only like $15 on Amazon, which is a small price to pay.
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
You can still get a free battery if you're off contract with T-Mobile... at least for me it was. I'm on a non-contract Plus plan and I got a free battery when I complained.
[Vibrant General] gatesmarch123:
Yeah that should be true, because it is still under manufacturers warranty for the first year. Just go to a tmo store...throw you're battery at them and yell,"WTF is this POS you sold me?!

[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
Hell, why give back your old battery? (even if it's ****ty, it can still be used as a last ditch backup). Just call them-- it takes 5 minutes.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
is the battery sold in amazon safe to used? why is it only $15 while in the t-mobile it's freaking $50?! i do want to say to t-mobile that i want a replacement but i am using it for 2 months now.
[Vibrant General] sasquatch_hero:
Search the forums for "Critical SyncManager Bug in JI6". Restarting the syncmanager caused me to go from 5-6 hrs to 30-36 hrs of battery life.
[Vibrant General] ELStiko:
one more suggestion is try cleaning the contact points on your battery and phone. That may help.. it can't hurt....
[Vibrant General] ed1380:
i was driving earlier today and about once every 5 minute I would turn maps on and let the gps lock in to make sure I was going to right way. the rest of the time screen off, resting in my lap plugged into the charger. current widget reported about 300ma charging current, which sounds about right. in 20 minutes my battery went from 63% to 61% while plugged in

well... I didn't buy it from T-Mobile either. My brother convinced me to get it off eBay instead...

Yes, but for the times in the OP, They were all off. I switched to Stock Launcher over Launcher Pro and quit Launcher Pro
[Vibrant General] NoDataFound:
Check my threads or replies about battery life. I got no more than 3 hours a day.

I called tmo and they sent me a free battery. AND i got to keep the old one. Pretty decent deal imo.

New battery is better, and i can get 10 hours on a good day.

The lock screen on CM is just the AOSP lock screen.

You can get it on sense by deleting HtcLockscreen.apk. That name might be off, but it's something like that.

You won't get the music controls from CM doing that though.

I am looking for someone who knows enough about the smart phone apple and/or android development scene to be able to point me in the right direction.

Here is a bit about me and my problem. Unlike the majority of the flood of apps in either market, I actually have a productive and profitable idea to contribute to the mobile application scene. I am 29 and have been doing multimedia graphic design for over 16 years, but I have stayed as far away from code as possible. So, talk about floods, I am sure there are people like me that hammer forums looking to piggyback on people. I am not one of those guys. I am basically looking for a little guidance on where I should go next. I have done a ton of UI work but I have nobody to help me put it together. I want to make sure and go after this the right way. Anyone feel like showing me the way? haha

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AriCaptivate:
If you want to try your hand at working apps but are still unwilling to learn to code but have a good handle on common sense, you should check out App Inventor from Googlelabs. You can create apps through the java interface they provide and all the actions are kind of like putting together a puzzle, you just drag and drop the pieces in. It's a bit limited because it's not code oriented, but like I sad if you are looking to stay away from coding, this is likely your best option short of hiring someone else to code for you.

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

Does anyone have a link to Bakedsnack 1.8? I would like to try that out and see the battery performance before I revert back to 1.7

[Epic 4G Android Development] Sh0wNuF:
Now I am no dev but I was wondering if it would be possible to create a media player that can sync with the desktop zune software and have a similar UI that plays all my protected content. I love my zune hd but part of the reason I bought this phone is so I only need to carry one device for all my multimedia needs. If this is possible ad there are any devs willing to work I would gladly make a donation of $50-$100 for a working app
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
I would wager 10x that amount that it will never happen..

I have a ZuneHD and f*ckin love it. However, Microsoft won't do it because thats one of the big draws for WP7, and we can't do it because there is no code to base it on. It's all Microsoft's protected content.

However, there is one option. I don't think its against any XDA rules to post this, and if it is I'll remove it, but I won't put links anyway. Just look up Daniusoft Digital Media Converter. I know it's expensive, ~$50 I think, but I bought it, and it's totally worth it. I have gotten way more use than that out of it. It'll let you convert your Zune Pass music to MP3 and then you can sync it to your Android with Doubletwist & the like. I know it's more work, but it does work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] muyoso:
But at that point, why not just download torrents with higher quality music? I mean, you could make the argument I guess that you have a right to that music even though you are explicitly only renting it .? ?.? . Save the 50 dollars and just join a good private torrent site like what or waffles.

Also, to the OP, if you only want to carry the Epic 4g for all of your multimedia needs, why do you need it to sync with the Zune software? I assume its because of the zune pass?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
I don't know. I find this easier than torrent sites TBH. I'm a lazy ass, and I paid for convenience lol. This way it keeps all the metadata, and I don't have to sort it manually, and I do feel better in that I did actually pay for the music in one way or another.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Sh0wNuF:
I don't subscribe to zunepass or anything, I just have a lot of songs and movies I've paid for and would like them on my phone, and TBH I really like the zune media player interface
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigdbag:
For a zune interface, they do have a zune home replacement launcher but it's pretty awful. Really if you want the zune media interface get a windows phone 7... what you're asking for is foolish to be frank.
