[HD7 General] FiyaFleye:
So wouldn't people be better off buying directly from HTC.com? It's the same T-Mobile branded phone, isn't it?
[HD7 General] xhamoodx:
i think so because you have to choose T-Mobile as the carrier before you make the purchase
[HD7 General] kwill:
Yeah, I can't even find it on htc.com. It keeps taking me to the Microsoft website now. I'm really trying to find the best non contract price also as I bought my hd2 in feb or mar and can't use upgrade pricing. I think it sucks as it's a new OS and they should be eager to get everyone using it. Anyone think they'll have success getting it non contract from tmobile for 400 even?
[HD7 General] xhamoodx:
i don't think it will be available for less than $500,

if you look into htc.com or t mobile, most of their $199 devices are $500+ non contract

even the HD2 is $450 now
[HD7 General] kwill:
Understood and I still don't see it on HTC.com. But, at least you would think they want everyone that currently owns a winmo device to adopt the new platform. They should at least offer it to us for early upgrade. Hell, the iPhone does it for just iOS upgrades and current iPhone users. Come off the goods. I mean they gave 80,000 free ones to employees totalling 50 million dollars. Spread that around and get your supporters buzzing about your platform.:D
[HD7 General] molten83:
If you are with Tmobile,its $449 final price after instant online discount. You can check on their website.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mash3an:
Hi,

being so keen to upgrade to froyo, I've been checking for firmware update via kies on daily basis, I kept getting "the device's version can not be updated" message, which i suspected from day one as with other users it kies should show the device firmware version and the current one, but in my case it only shows teh current and this message!

please check the attached screen capture image with the version numbers

appreciating your help
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DaRkMyk:
That's normal. It's just a bad english translation. It just means that there are no updates available for your phone..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] morvaeldd:
I think it's better to have "You have the latest version available" than "This version cannot be upgraded" - both are possible in Kies. I had the second message while my phone was sitting on JG5 firmware from July and didn't want to install newer JM1 from August. Once I toyed a bit with product code, sales code (inside the phone) and software version (in Windows Registry) it offered me an upgrade to JM1 and now it says I have the latest version. My problem was in the fact that I bought an unbranded (I thought so) phone but it turned out to have a branded product code and Kies didn't allow me to upgrade it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mash3an:
Thanks all,

but is it normal not to have any version number next to Phone???

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] morvaeldd:
There must be something unstandard written in the device or really an empty string where phone software version should be. It seems the hundreds of variants of software they made for x countries each with 2-4 providers made mess of version control. I guess tricking kies to believe you have one of the more standard roms would do the trick and allow you to upgrade.

The thread I got the idea from can be found here: Credit goes to Gla'DOS for the scribble boot animation.

http://xdaforums.com/search.php?searchid=48024033

I'm not sure if 2.1 builds support bootanimation.zip files so I extracted the png's, renamed them, edited the .cfg file and it works flawlessly on my phone.

In the provided zip is the shutdown.png files, the .cfg file and a readme file. The readme file explains how I did it so everyone can do it.

This is a shutdown animation only.

Here is the zip that contains everything, enjoy!

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Master™:
So basically you converted the stuff from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8813403&postcount=2

To make a shutdown image?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
That's correct. I was going to mention your name in the OP but I wasn't sure if you were the original creator of the scribble animation, my apologies if you were.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Master™:
Naw, "Gla'DOS" is the creator.

I was just tryin to figure out what this was :cool:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] brian_v3ntura:
great,i was wondering how to extract boot animations. i rly like the the one with the android logo and a green flash type of thing moving in the back ground.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Yeah its very easy to do. I was searching other forums last night and have a whole bunch of bootanimation.zip files I'm going to convert. I'll post them when I'm done.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MisterJohnnyT:
No boot video at all...

Is it possible to get rid of the animation altogether and display the Android equivalent of a POST screen, so we can see things getting loaded/activated as it boots?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bronk93:
Only problem with that is the BOOT animation's are not png files rather than qmg files and those are proprietary samsung files I believe. I've read a couple different threads on different boards and it looks like editing qmg files proves to be very difficult.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ndhr3d:
If you look in the Vibrant Bible sticky on the Development section of Samsung Vibrant, toward the bottom of the OP is the link for the custom boot animation. It's a Think Tank... no one has fully figured it out but it's well on its way to being cracked I'm sure.

Shutdown files are simply PNG files renamed to 'shutdown_##' placed in a folder named shutdown with a cfg file telling it how many frames to run.

Boot animation files they've figured you can create an uncompressed .zip file, place it in the system/media folder and a desc.txt file telling it resolution and how to run.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robo321:
I have been looking all over for Koush V2 kernel. I was told that this particular kernel will improve battery like on the MIUI rom. Does someone have a link to the zip or is there another kernel that is recommended over the koush version 2?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackattack:
Koush Test 2

King's CFS #1 and BFS #1

Ziggy's Kernel (lots of people have trouble with this one)

These are the most popular choices for MIUI. There are others out there, I'm sure.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sucker4pa1n:
I'm guessing ziggys kernel isn't working for MIUI because it isn't designed for AOSP ROMs. Ziggy said that himself if the 14 page thread I just read.

I've been using test2 on CM6 nightlies for a while now with decent results. Just installed KKs latest kernel so we'll see how that works.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackattack:
I haven't used Ziggy's kernel but somebody in the MIUI thread said they had it working.

I've also used Koush's test2 on both CM and MIUI and I like it. I just switched to King's CFS #1 and I like it a lot so far. I keep it at 998 because I was getting reboots when overcclocked.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
I have no idea what I did differently from others (almost everybody else has had issues) but I do have the 1026 revision of ziggy's aosp incredible kernel working perfectly. It's very fast and good on battery life too. I installed kernels before ziggy's and would do a dalvik wipe each time.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sucker4pa1n:
I just researched into it a bit more and realized I was way off. Apparently he does have a AOSP kernel. Sorry :P Hrmm... Khanam did you try his 127? It was updated a few days ago.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khanam:
127 is the number of times its been downloaded - it is actually called the 1026 aosp kernel. That is the one I used. I did have problems with the 1023 one on another AOSP Rom though...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
So if the Vibrant is only 800X480, why does a 720p movie look better than a 480 movie, it seems like the max is 480..... Also, if the Iphone 4 has 960x640, even though it looks amazing, way better than any android, it isnt actually playing a 720p video in full either is it? yes i realize how stupid that question seems to many of you. I couldnt figure out how to search google for the question. So enlighten me if you can. After you give me crap for not searching of course...thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigragu:
What is the resolution of the movie you are comparing it to? What is the format of the movie? How was it compressed? All of this and more affects the resolution of the video. If you have a 720p movie, it my be down-converted to 480 on playback, but because it was compressed at a higher quality (and maybe in a less lossy format), it's going to look better than a movie compressed in standard-definition (and more than likely at lower data rates).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ld006:
because 720 is bigger than 480, the image size is bigger and usually has a higher bitrate too than a regular 480 video, so if 720 is played on anything smaller than a 720display, it gets resized (downsized) to fit the screen (without any quality loss), in this case a 480 screen. So all those pixels on the 720 video get pushed closer together thus showing more detail on the 480 screen.

a 480 video usually looks just fine on a 480 display, but since a 720 video is bigger and was meant for higher resolution screens, it has a higher bitrate which makes it store more detail than a 480 video, that's why it looks better
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
thanks for the replies, that makes perfect sense. if its 720 pixels i didnt understand how they could all be on a screen capable of only 480 but i guess compressing the video maintains the quality.

And to answer the questions, i just dl a movie, and drag and drop to my vibrant through doubletwist which takes care of the conversion. Although ive noticed none of the videos i download look nearly as good as default Avatar. I dl 1080/720 movies and they always have the very pronounced, large pixels when there is action and bright colors. But Avatar looks great so i guess maybe i could use something other than doubletwist and get a better quality conversion? Because the Vibrant is clearly capable of displaying fast action and huge varieties of colors like in Avatar

That said im ready for HTC/Moto/Samsung to start popping out some high res displays to rival the I4. The Vibrant has a nice screen but put it next to the damn I4 and it looks downright dull. I guess that tiny 3.5" screen next to the Vibrant's perfectly sized 4" display benefits the I4 visually as well...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ld006:
don't use doubletwist to put videos on your phone if they are already compatible with the vibrant, like a 720 video, vibrant can handle that..and all I explained was about the vibrant playing back the 720 video without conversion (just dragging and dropping the 720 video to the phone)

you have been playing the wrong movies or using the wrong convesion settings cause my movies look amazing, up to par and sometimes even better than the iphone 4. Have a look at one of my threads and download the video i uploaded (just drag and drop to phone don't use doubletwist or any other conversion method) and you will see what the vibrant screen is capable of.

[HD2 General] Matt V:
After the latest 3.14 update from T-Mobile, I've been having trouble with the new 2.15 radio it came with, seems data drops a lot more often and eats my battery away. However, when I tried to go back to 2.12, it won't work. Progress stays at 0%, so this leads me to believe that I'm either doing something wrong or I'm screwed because I updated it. So which is it?
[HD2 General] bugmenever:
Also looking for help in moving back to the previous radio

It would be awesome if someone can provide a few pointers to go back to the radio that came with the previous (2.14) ROM. Unlike a lot of other people who are reporting improvements in battery life, my battery is draining a lot faster, like OP notes here. So, I am looking to go back to the previous version other radio.

I there a way to transfer a call from the captivate to a land line or any other line for that matter, mid-call?

Often I will be on a landline call on my office phone and I just press the transfer button and dial my cell phone to transfer the call to it if I need to leave the office. I can't find a way to do the reverse though, and transfer the call from the cell to the landline when I get to the office.

I think Google voice can do it but I am wondering if anyone knows of any other ways or apps that can do this.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jermu^:
Yes, and my phone`s vibration motor now makes strange noises when it vibrates for the haptics. Sounds kind of like it`s broken, so I turned it off. When I had JM1, it worked fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Soniboy84:
Same here. Vibration is more gentle, and indeed has some noise! Sometimes it even goes crazy, and vibrates like for a second or 2.

Not like I care..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Meza1:
Yeah I find that the haptic feedback in Froyo is a bit weird compared to Eclair.

My device now does occasional random vibrations when on standby, normally two short buzzes, then a few seconds later a single one.

Anyone get that or know what's causing it?

It does that when a program freezes or something. On standby, though, that's a bit weird.

The Sprint version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab (which you can get Nov. 14) will have it, and the Samsung Epic 4G will get it in a future update, presumably on top of Samsung's Touchwiz interface. Sprint ID basically is a profile switcher -- themes, if you well -- that made their debut at CTIA.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] thinkjason:
Is there a way to adjust haptic feedback in the stock G2 rom? I recently installed SMS Popup and the ability to customize the SMS notification vibration had me wondering. I noticed that the strength of vibration in normal system notifications (unlocking the screen, icon presses) has decreased since the day I bought the phone, and I'd like to switch it up a bit. I was initially worried that the vibrator was getting loose like the one in my Iphone did, but SMS Popup alleviated that worry.

I'm imagining this is something that permanent root and a custom rom would resolve, but if there's a way to do it otherwise I'd be a happy panda.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] SRT102JZ:
Something like this would definitely be nice but don't know if its quite possible. Don't recall anything like that being available for the nexus for the haptic feedback although there was a setting in CM6 to change vibrate settings for other apps.
