[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] can teh man:
Put dream.nbh on your sd card in the root, hold camera and power and go from there.

That will put stock 1.6 back on your phone and fix your radio problem.

[General Topics] Amanha:
Good Afternoon All,

I just recived a new XDA Guide - And (apart from over-worring about scratching the chrome) im loving the new addition. One thing thats bugging me is the touchflo. Theres a button for "Music" and "People" along the botton. Now, I hate the "People" thing becuase I have no use for it and I hate the "Music" thing becuase I carry my iPod Touch 4thGen around with me all the time. So, My question is: How do you edit the touchflo bar so I can delete buttons off it? - Its getting annoying scrolling so much to find the useful stuff. Ive already tried "AdvancedConfig" - I really dont know how to use that and "Diamond TF3D Config" isnt displaying the stuff in the "Move down" and "Move Up" list..

Anyone, can you help?

Thanks

Aman

hmmm i'm just wondering to root my phone with universal android root. so will it give me access to boot loader so maybe i can install cyanogen mod :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
It will root your phone (except 2.2.1), but will not unlock your boot loader.

Once rooted, you can install a custom recovery, and the Cyanogen (or any other ROM).

You do not need to unlock the bootloader.

Replacement Epic... second screen protector used... and now this?

Please tell me it isn't a bad camera.

This is a white keyboard, yet the center area of the image appears very pink.

This is easiest to see in low light on something white.

Epic Experience, MixUp

EDIT it looks just like this:

http://www.gsmarena.com/a_hardware_fault_causes_htc_hd2_*pink*_camera_issues_confirmed-news-1276.php

which was(/is?) a software issue on the HD2. So is it my ROM/kernel?

...and here http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...-one-camera-issue-cloudy-red-blur-middle.html

Here's the Nexus in an OFFICIAL VIDEO and you can see it from about :10 to :18.

All phones? Are you serious? http://pocketnow.com/thought/clarification-the-pink-spot-syndrome

I've actually found a lot of topics on this, some say it is a software issue, and some say it is hardware... I just wonder if everyone has it, or if I've only started my adventure of returning phones until I get one that actually WORKS. If they are all like this, I'd be disappointed, but not nearly as disappointed as if I have to "roll the dice" again and wait another 3 days and buy another Zagg screen protector.

Changing the white balance to anything but Auto seems to fix this.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Nope. My camera seems to work fine. Took multiple pictures of a white envelope and no color variation at all. Might be your camera or even the lighting conditions of that particular shot that threw it off.
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
What kind of lighting? It only seems to appear in dim/indoor setting.

Here are three more... all are on Auto white balance, even though the colors seem to change a lot with the light:

Some sunlight (door open, keyboard on floor) - No pink

Indoors + Flash (same place, door shut) - No pink

Indoors (same conditions, no flash) - PINK!

It isn't incapable of showing a pure white, the conditions just have to be ideal.

[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
The Nexus among many other phone had the 'pink dot' effect.

I noticed this was most common if you have Auto-White on, and quickly open the camera and snap a picture.

The red dot would come up at first when the camera was opened, but once the camera focuses, the pink dot disappears.

Its mainly has to do with the focusing of the lenses I think....

from a epic Galaxy far, far away.
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
...so does anyone else see this on the Epic? The one site seems to think it's a phenomenon in all cheap digital cameras.

Samsung Galaxy S2 Red Spot Camera

Hi guys,

Any solution yet? I changed my SGS2 and the problem is still there. :mad:
[Epic 4G General] dito33:
Try to change the white balance if on auto go indoor and use outdoor lighting to get more light.
[Epic 4G General] holyguyz:
Samsung Galaxy S2 Pink Spot Camera

Thanks dito33. Changing the white balance makes photo color looks not so natural (in my point of view). I know lighting will help, but not in indoor low-light environment. I just want my SGS2 to be my first perfect android phone. BTW, i am a bit disappointed with the Pink Spot issue on SGS2 which cost me over 500 pound, not 50 pound. :mad:

Still thinking whether looking into exchange my phone to other brand/model or just keep it. :confused:
[Epic 4G General] bondosho:
I went looking through all my photos, and can't find that pink tint in any of them. The one thing on this camera that I find annoying is when shooting video, everything will get a green-ish hue to it for a minute, and then for no reason go back to normal.

Green:

Normal
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Ah! This is software related. :)

We need to tell Samsung John about this.

Remember the HTC Leo pink spots in it's pictures? A software update fixed it.
[Epic 4G General] bondosho:
This has been an issue since I got the phone :(

Also, before I make a video, I let the camera go for 20 seconds, then it'll say "recording failed", let it go for another minute or so to see if it fails again. If it doesn't, I'll then go ahead and make a video. This happens on queue every time.

[EVO 4G Accessories] aronslusa:
I have the one listed here:

http://evoarmband.com/

Don't really care for it as the plastic face interfears with the Zagg shield I have over it, and makes it difficult to put in and take out.

A while back before both of my iPod touches were stolen, I had an armband that had a clear plastic shell case/backing for the iPod touch, and then an armband with small holster that you slipped the cased iPod into. The holster was attached to the armband and you could easily slide the iPod in and out of just the holster.... leaving the iPod exposed for the most part where you didn't have the hassle of a piece of plastic in front of the screen.

Anyone remember those? I can't seem to find them?

Well I'm wondering if there is anything similar for the EVO.

I figured I'd ask before I buy a TPU case and start hacking away at it to make it suit my needs.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] rmanaudio:
Call Samsung Canada and tell them Bell wont take it back because you dont have a receipt and would like to know where to fix your phone as it is faulty!

They should tell you where and do it for free or for cost.

Report back!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jark99:
Nope samsung were assholes to me. they kept saying take it to bell. bla bla bla...when clearly this issue of internal sd cards dying is at the manufacturers fault. Just because they have a contract with cell companies...it just makes it that much harder for me, people who bought the phone 2nd hand.

HOWEVER

http://cellphonetoronto.ca/

this company in missausaga, said they maybe able to fix my phone for $80. some sort of Full Flash that they have. I am going to go to them tuesday and see what happens. wish me the best haha
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rmanaudio:
$80 for flashing...that is a rip off! And it will probably happen again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jark99:
i dont know what software they use or anything. if they can fix my phone, its hell alot worth it instead of paying the 450 that people are selling them for. or buying it through rogers or bell.

my guess is they have specialized software flash program andmaybe some other hardware, as their technician has worked all over with various cell companies. I only pay if i see my phone working. so yeah....worth a shot.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xxgg:
If I were to experience a serious issues like these...

I would ditch the phone and get me a NexusOne or something...

Instead of going through all these hassles.

What doyou think?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jark99:
agreed. but right now my plan is to go tuesday see if i they can fix it (hopefully they can) if they cant. Ill buy a Capitivate or some other phone outright from Rogers, so this way ill make sure to have warranty. Never ever 2nd hand again...ive learned my mistake. Hopefully this store can fix my phone

** the store probably uses RIFF or SPT boxes which costs like $250.....its official ones that samsung uses. im hoping the store uses those for phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
let me know how it works out

i got 2 phones sitting here with dead internal SD due the lag fix from the USA members that needs fixing and damn Bell will not accept it because they don't have an invoice, even when we are willing to pay for the repairs

which is totally and absolutely ridiculous i really hope the class action goes through

I'm currently using a version of MDeejay which has a transparent top bar. Running this with Harastin's R8 kernal is absolutely spot on for me so really don't want to change build as everything is amazing :D

Only thing that I don't like is the transparent top bar is there any way of making this all black? As at the moment it is transparent with a black line at the top wouldn't even bother me as much if the black line wasn't there.

[Vibrant General] royalslim:
So many froyo roms in development section, but still Vibrant showing 324 (more or less) of ram available? Isn't froyo suppose to fee that part of ram up that is not being used in eclair?
[Vibrant General] defconoi:
I think some of it is reserved for the GPU
[Vibrant General] ttabbal:
There's a thread in the i9000 section about this. The short version is that all that RAM you can't see is reserved for various parts of the device to use. The radio uses some, the camera uses some, the GPU, etc.. It sucks that that memory is reserved even if you aren't using the GPU, for example, but that's how it is. They have a kernel patch over there that attempts to free up some of it by reducing the allocations. It seems to work without causing problems, but time will tell.

So the answer to the question is NEVER. There is 512MB of RAM in the device, but you won't be able to use all 512MB for user progams ever. This is no different than most off the shelf computers, they advertise 4GB of RAM, but the internal graphics takes 512MB, and other devices in the machine often do the same thing. Would it be nice if manufacturers wern't allowed to advertise this way? Maybe. However, Samsung isn't doing anything that isn't "industry standard". IMO they should all be advertising user-available RAM rather than installed RAM, but then people would ***** that the OS takes up some RAM, so you will never make everyone happy.
[Vibrant General] Kubernetes:
I would be unhappy if I thought we needed more RAM, but honestly I've never seen my Vibrant even get close to low.
[Vibrant General] tjhart85:
I don't mind the RAM issue as I'm not having issues (yet), what I don't like is the internal storage.

On the Vibrant it's not too bad since we have 16GB, but for something like the G2 where they advertise it as 4GB, but you only have access to ~1.5, that's just not cool!

Eventually there'll probably be some kernel tweaks or something that'll free up some of that internal RAM, but I don't forsee anyone coding for it until they actually need it themselves (nothing speeds up development more than personal interest....why do you think the dev ROMs are so much better than the Samsung ones).
[TG01 General] NasTa:
Hi there again...

Im having this "problem" of mine from a long time but now its really pissing me of.

Im sick of the rotation of my TG01...

-is there a way to stop the screen from rotation ONLY in desktop nd when im calling someone or someone is calling me?
[TG01 General] Pere:
Yes, you can

There is a program called changeScreen . You can configure it to decide in which programs rotation works or not.

Here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=468488

It works perfectly on TG01

Best R.
[TG01 General] NasTa:
Im so happy to hear that theres a solution...

To bad i cant do it on my own aparently...

Ill be grateful if u can tell me step by step how to dissable the rotation in Manila nd in call nd accepting call mode (wich i found out thanx to the app that is called "cprog").

I did that:

I put a check mark on:

V Enabled

V Run on Startup

And then next to Default (same page) i put a check mark only on the first position-straight. I clicked "Save" but my phone was still rotating everywhere.

I restarted-same "effect". I tried even to turn off my Motion Sensor (not logical is it but...) - still the same.

Where nd what am i doing wrong?
[TG01 General] NasTa:
I gues Pere wont help me ahead... someone else? :rolleyes:
[TG01 General] mirolg:
changescreen is perfect. before you must disable the toshiba motion sensor in settings. you need also the htcSensorSDK.dll (unzip and copy in windows folder) then RESET

info: cprog.exe is phoneDailer

Sorry, I don't use Manila. Thanks Miro, I agree, a very good program
[Captivate General] juiceppc:
Hi all. I just got a Captivate after using Mattc on my HD2 and I used an Aria for a couple weeks as well. I used Mattc on the HD2 for a couple months and really liked it. I understood it was running from the SD and lived with the other issues like slow wake up and occasional goofiness.

So when I got my Captivate I was thinking, wow, I'll have one of(if not the) fastest Android phone on it's native hardware. Everything should rock. I should be blown away... Not.

HELP!

The brightness settings. WTF! Why did they implement like 10 ways the brightness screws with your day. On my HD2 w/Mattc I set the brightness in settings to where I wanted and it stayed. Forever. Also when it hits 10% it kicks the brightness all the way down. 10%? Com on maybe 5%. But what is worse is when it does kick it down I kick it back up but it dims again at every percent it goes down. ANNOYING. Please let me control my phone... Oh and don't get me started on the Browser brightness. Huh? Even with the browser brightness set at max it's still dimmer than my regular brightness setting. Noticably. I only keep my brightness at like 75-80% too.

Also what the hell is with the lame Calendar notification settings? Are there any?

My question is this. Is there any ROM out there that will strip all that Samsung ideology and give me a stock Android experience. Especially without the brightness issues. Why do I need to slide my notification bar to change brightness? All it does for me is just cause my brightness to vary accidentally when I don't want it to.

Why must I add on programs for my Calendar alerts to function normally? Why?

So again. Is there a ROM out there that will strip all the Samsung goofiness? If I can't get this phone to work like I want I'm going to sell it and look for a Telus HTC Desire to use on ATT. HTC phones are the best man. IMHO

Thanks.
[Captivate General] kegobeer:
Turn off auto brightness and pick a setting you like. Done.

I don't know what lame is, but I use my Google calendar and I can set notifications. I get notified. Is there a specific problem you have?

There is no stock Android experience. Android is just the core - Samsung, HTC, etc, they all add specific things in order for their specific hardware to function. If you don't want what comes on your AT&T Captivate, then you can root and uninstall the apps you don't like, flash one of the many, many cooked ROMs available on this forum (just look around - they are everywhere, and all with great pictures and descriptions and huge threads full of information), tweak settings to your heart's content, or anything else you want to do.

I don't have any add-ons and I get my alerts. What exactly isn't working for you?
[Captivate General] juiceppc:
Auto brightness has been off. First thing I do-

I do not get audible alerts when a Calendar reminder goes off-(and there is no where in settings to change/check this)

I had to install "Calendar Snooze" to play an audible alert for a Calendar reminder-

Phone is at 10% now fully dimmed. Nice... Considering how bad the battery life is for this phone(for me) I'll be spending a lot of time with the screen fully dimmed.
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
Try reading a little and you will see you can set the brightness at where you want it by un-checking the automatic brightness setting..Then you can swipe along the status bar to raise and lower the brightness..It will stay where you had it set IF the automatic brightness is unchecked..Where you have the slider at will be the brightest it will swipe to..

Set your alerts to something you can hear and turn up the volume..They work fine.

Battery life is not a issue provided you follow some advise..Bump charge it 1 time and then use it till it drains down to single digits before recharging...also make sure you back out of all programs and turn off wi-fi and gps and syncing when you don't need them. Loose any task killer program you have and run it stock..you will find your battery life is excellent..if not you may or may not have a bad battery..Lastly..if you are really dissatisfied with it..take it back..

Good Luck

Mac
[Captivate General] veive:
In regards to the brightness, turn off auto brightness and the 'power saving option.', that should solve your issue.

As far as removing the AT&T bloatware goes, try Unleash the beast.

If you want to run Froyo try flashing a rom, I used the latest version of Cognition.

[Captivate General] juiceppc:
Thanks for the advice. Although I have done all of those things. I'm kind of coming to one real main pain point that I can't seem to solve. The screen dimming at 10%. Does anyone know how to disable that? Even if I kick the brightness back up after it dims at 10% it will redim at 9% and so on...
