Visual VM app will only work with Tmobile VM, so in order for you to use Google Voice VM you need to use google voice app and if you like you can use one of the google voice widgets but you can not use Visual vm in sense with google voice

hope this helps
[myTouch 4G General] HTCinToronto:
What are you ranting about!

Go to the market, search for "google", pick any app that is from "google inc", slide down & click on "view more applications". How hard is that!

As for VVM, first and foremost, it's a carrier-side service. Go rant there.
[myTouch 4G General] 21productionz:
LMAO nap time?

You don't need VVM with GV. The voice app gives you transcribed VM and highlights the words as you play it. I put a shortcut to GV on my homescreen and viola.
[myTouch 4G General] jdmoore81:
Just change your vm number to your googlevoice number and u will be good to go
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvumaniac79:
So I saw where you could install a ffc on the Samsung vibrant. Would this same procedure work on the captivate? Sorry if this is a rediculous question, Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny13oi:
Based off of some tear down pictures. I don't think it is possible. It seems as though the camera module used in the Captivate is slightly different in that the flex cable seems to be angled from the chip to the module whereas it appears to be straight in the Captivate. Also, the pictures of the Captivate show that it 4 posts on the corners holding the camera module in place ... this seems like it would interfere with the flex from the big camera module to the front camera module that is right on the corner.

I currently have a Captivate and really wish I could do the front facing camera mod too. I would instantly do it. I also really wish I could get the Vibrant because I am on T-mobile myself but my T-mobile blocks all T-mobile branded Android phones from the T-zones plan. If only IMEI changing/spoofing wasn't illegal.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
well anything is posible but it's not easy on the captivate. and even if you get the hardware i dont know if the kernel will work, even an i-9000 kernel and rom might not see it, lust like we dont have fm radio or hsupa and when we fix hsupa bluetooth audio doesnt work.

i have had my phone apart and i realized something that should have been obvious. our camera is mounted higher in relation to the screen than a vibrant/i-9000/fascinate. what you would see if look at an i-9000 is that the ffc is mounted to the top of the rear camera, this is the most likely to work, the epic cameras are mounted seperately and require an additional connector to the board that doesnt exist on a captivate.

i would need a gt i-9000 camera assembly and a spare captivate camera to determine if the ribbon cable would cross over being that they are different. i have a feeling that they wont and would need either a very difficult and delicate splicing proceedure or a custom cable made and the cable has a video chip on the end with a connector underneath so that's another part to buy, if that's required i dont see it ever getting done for a lack of practicality.

now comes the mounting, as i said our camera is higher and the ffc gets mounted on top. if we mount there the camera would protrude through the top of the phone, to the right and below (viewed from the back) we have circuits so it cant go there, to the left we have an antenna(gps maybe dont know) if we move the antenna and butcher the board that might work but i wouldn't. instead i would let it protrude from the top of the phone above the glass and mold in a hump into the plastic. the plastic is molded directly over the metal chassis and cant be removed so it would need to be milled away and some sort of veneer would need to be made.

all in all i want to try it but a lot needs to be established before i drill holes in my phone, i need a gt i-9000 camera to play with and some spare captivate parts. once i test that the hardware and firmware work i can mod the frame for it to fit(i am a machinist so i think i can work the latter part out). that'll need to wait till i have spending money.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny13oi:
Actually if you look at the orientation of the chip, camera, and front camera ... it would actually work for the Captivate. The biggest problem I see is that the posts holding the camera module that I stated before and possibly whatever is beneath the headphone jack. Based on the orientation of the camera module and stuff the front facing camera would be right underneath the headphone jack next to the AT&T logo.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
let me reiterate. i have had the phone apart....

there is no room under the headphone jack nor is there room between the jack and the screen. also the ribbon cable is quite different.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740022

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8395614

the joggle in the ribbon cable goes the wrong way, and i would need to have a camera assembly on hand but i do not think the ffc could sit to the side of the rfc. i dont know how thin the ffc is but i can tell you there is plastic under the headphone jack and to remove that without breaking the glass would be quite a feat. and then it is questionable weather it will fit. you may as well drill a hole throug the glass for the camera to poke through. all i can think of to not completely butcher the phone is to remove the headphone jack completely. but at that point you can just buy an i-9000 and call it good.

we have different headphone logic, the pinouts are different for some components, it is highly questionable as to whether the hardware will even work without a kernel mod and the developer wont have detailed hardware specs to work with or source for some of the samsung specific code.

Hi,

I have been trying to deodex my droid 2 in order to install custom themes via xUltimate using the manual method. I get to the point where you copy the /sdcard/done_app/* to /system/app and /sdcard/done_frame, etc via adb and I keep getting an error message stating that there is no directory named /sdcard/done_app/ although it is there. Any ideas? Is there a one click deodex for droid 2 yet?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew
[Droid 2 General] hophead75:
Follow up, bump

Follow up - tried deodexing again, using directions and files from this thread:

I am running Android 2.2.20 VZ Droid 2

I put the deodexed folders on the root of the sdcard.

Here is where I get stuck (This is getting frustrating:

C:\android-sdk_r071-windows\android-sdk-windows\tools

# su

# stop

stop

# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/system /systems

cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/

cp: /sdcard/done_app/*: No such file or directory
[Droid 2 General] braway:
i don't really want to state something obvious...but seems like /sdcard/done_app/ doesn't exists OR the sdcard is not mounted (connected in the wrong mode? wrong settings in winamp so that the sdcard is always mounted when usb is connected?)
[Droid 2 General] hophead75:
Yeah, it needed to be in pc mode. I guess that should have been obvious, but i couldn't root my phone in pc mode, had to use usb mass storage so I used that for everything.
[Desire HD General] KDR1245:
Hey everyone,

hope everyone's doing great.

I have a general question about android and the gmail contacts sync.

At the moment, I have my main gmail account, which is where I get all my emails, have my calendar, etc. And I have a separate gmail account which is especially made for my contacts and only contacts. I keep them nicely maintained in there, it's very tidy and I have no issues with it whatsoever.

My issue, though, is that I have my ~800 contacts from my main gmail account that I don't really want. I have disabled syncing of contacts on the main gmail account but they're still there.

This gets annoying (and a bit untidy) when trying to send a message, I type the first few characters of the contact and I get multiple entries of the same person, all duplicates.

Is there a away to get rid of all the contacts from my main gmail account and only keep the ones from my other (contacts only) account???

Thanks in advance,

Mike
[Desire HD General] malex1:
I have not tried this, but it may work with a bit of playing around.

In your GMail account, go into 'Contacts' check the box next to all the people you want to appear on your phone.

Click on 'Groups' Tab and click on add to Android group or HTC Favorites.

If all your contacts are already in these two groups, uncheck the ones you do not want.

Try sync see if you only get this group.

Tilt 2 HTC Messaging

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To get to the point, I hate the new HTC Messaging. I want desperately to go back to Windows Mobile SMS. I have tried the "Zenyee Disable SMS" cab and it is quite buggy on my Tilt 2. I either don't get the text messages or I receive them hours later. Most solutions are for the Touch Pro 2 and I have found that they do not always work for the Tilt 2. Any helpful suggestions?

Thanks,

Hi guys, I am having a problem with downloading apps through cellular data on my mytouch 4g. I can download them fine if I am on wifi but it gets stuck on "starting download" progress bar without it. I've tried clearing the data for the market app, restoring it back to factory, and the google talk sign in; none of these worked for me. This is driving me crazy and any help would be greatly appreciated.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stoute:
I think this may be fixed on the new update that came out today. I still haven't seen my update yet. :-( mine still does this too.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamasi36:
Go into settings/wireless networks/mobile network or operator and select Tmobile network. Even it is checked select it and make sure your phone is gsm/wcdma checked. WCDMA only created problem for me. Also if you have temp root you will not get the update as long as it is running on your phone. In addition, if you disabled any bloatware you have to restore it before the update. Once I disabled Visionary and restored back to factory I got the update in a couple of hours.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waiaung1:
This is a really weird problem but it has to do something with the connection to the google servers (mainly google talk). This is evident by the fact that you are signed off and can not connect to google talk when you're stuck on the starting download phase of downloading the app(s). There are two ways around this problem that I've seen so far

1. Before you want to download an app, run google talk and make sure you're signed in, then sign out and sign in again. Go download the app(s) afterwards. Once you do this after you first power on the phone, it should last until you power it off.

2. Another way is go and try to download an app(s) you want and it will be stuck on the starting download bar. DO NOT cancel the download, just restart the phone and it should start downloading once the phone is back on.

P.S. The update did not fix this issue because I still have to deal with it.

If I learn anything new, I will keep you posted.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JWhipple:
Not to rub it in, but I'm really glad that I am not experiencing this problem. I'm liking the phone too much to have a reason to bring it back!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waiaung1:
Ok I have found out that the Google talk sign out sign in trick does not always work while the restarting one always works. It definitely is something to do the Google servers and the way the phone syncs with them. What I found interesting is that when you open the market app, immediately experience this problem as you can not sync under accounts settings and services like Google talk stop working. Another thing is that it seems to be the HSPA and HSPA+ connections causing the issue, the apps won't dl on them but it will start immediately as your phone drops to edge. I don't know if this is a hardware, software issue with the phone or the Google servers getting adjusted to the mytouch 4gs since they just came out.

Think I'm going to exchange my phone since not a lot of people have this problem.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoolin SE R:
Sorry to bring up an old thread but i'm now having this issue aswell. I've tried to clear data, can't download on Wifi or 3g. When i click ok it just says the download will be started and nothing happens, Sometimes if i play around i can get it to go to say starting download but just sits there then i will get either a network error to retry or cancel. Sometimes it's just a download unsuccessful and i click ok.

I tried resetting aswell and still same issue. Not sure how to sign out of google talk.. haven't quit got the hang of android yet but i'm actually not happy right now!

Before you format, see if your computer will read it. Use a MicroSD to SD adapter, or USB adapter. If you can, back it up first :)

Try manually mounting it.

Try removing and reinserting it.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ehe12:
Since I reported the GPS issue to Orange, I have received 2 replacements. This afternoon I updated my SGS to latest JPA firmware and went out to test the GPS. Now I can confirm that the GPS issue cannot be fixed by any kind of software firmware update. I've tested JF1,JF3,JF7,JH3,JPM,JM1,JP3,JPA. I have used GOOGLE MAPS, NDRIVE,IGO MY WAY, COPILOT on all these firmwares. On the 3 SGS I have (an original one from contract upgrade and 2 replacements since I reported the GPS issue to Orange), with all types of firmwares, navigation softwares, none gives stable GPS navigation. There are always 2 issues:

1. accuracy. never stop showing me on a different street.

2. GPS LAG. showed me stay still while I was moving. When turning in a cross, always lag till I passed the cross.

I have contacted Samsung mobile UK to report the GPS performance on latest firmware. This time they have no excuse at all to avoid admitting the GPS problem.

I will also contact Orange for a solution. I will ask for a different phone. Hopefully they have Desire HD. Or I may consider cancelling the contract and leave Orange...

Anyone claims a great GPS improvement after JPA update, if you had poor performance before, please go test it fully, see if you have the same issue I had. If you do, you can join me ask a refund from your retailer.

UPDATE: Just now went out for a little walk, use my tracks to track my movement. Was very surprised! the JPO firmware gives a great improvement. check it here:

http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=e...53.466879,-2.220461&spn=0.00213,0.006539&z=18

remember this is by walk and i can confirm this is pretty much the way I passed by. During the walk I stayed on the pavement. On Cavanagh Close I went from left side pavement to right side pavement, made a U turn and walked back to Lauderdale Crescent. Note that my end point was on Lauderdale Crescent,not Wilson St. This isn't perfect, but it's a great improvement! The accuracy is the only issue I'm concerned now. Also some reported after 10ish minutes navigation it would lose signal all the sudden. I can't confirm this coz my track only took around 5 mins. Need further test!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Schmich:
Has there been any revision when it comes to the gps hardware or do (should) all, even those straight out the factory now, i9000 have problems?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ehe12:
I cannot confirm this yet. All the 3 phones I have are made roughly Q1 2010, base on IMEI information check.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yiannisthegreek:
I have a serious question here about the GPS issue. I am really starting to think that this GPS issue is somthing that is being manipulated by specific "carriers" so that if you are a big GPS user you will us the "carrier specific" GPS app like TeleNav.

The reason I wonder this is because as I read the threads I see tht people with "unbranded" phones do not seem to have as much GPS issues as those with branded ones.

As I read the new froyo posts I see that those who have upgraded through Kies "officially" (and there by are unbranded) are reporting that GPS is locking onto 7 - 8 satelites in under 30 seconds and get a PERFECT positioning while those who have used the reg. hack method (and there by are branded) still report that the GPS is horrible.

I may be way off here and dont mean to sound all "conspiracy theory" or anything but this is just my 2 cents. What do you think?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crabjoe:
This is a complete guess on my part, but I would think the unbranded phones come off a different line then then branded phones.

Also, the folks reporting their GPS fixed might need to wait a few days to see if it still works. It's happened before where someone reports their GPS working after a flash, to later say it was broken again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ehe12:
all my 3 phones have no problem in finding satellites,they can find 7-8 satellites within 30 secs outdoor, only the accuracy is a big issue. also during navigation it seemed keep the lock very well, yet the navigation software actually lost signal and started repositioning, then reroute and ask me to turn around again and again.

branded and unbranded? My first 2 phones came without any network brand, no simlock, non branded firmware. I suppose they are unbranded? the final one came with simlock and orange official firmware. they all have the same issue. this means you theory is very doubtable.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ehe12:
exactly.

Branded or unbranded, luckily I have had both. all the 3 phones have crappy GPS. I doubt that at early producing stage they didn't realise the GPS problem and kept producing for a coupla months, then they found out and made some changes durling later producing. this can explain my case because all the 3 phones are produced on first quarter 2010 (JAN-MAR), the latest ones would have no problem at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] emms:
Its definatly not a crap gps broadcom supplied the chip but its up to the manufacturer to write the drivers. unfortunatly samsung has failed miserably.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ehe12:
I didn't mean crap gps chip, I mean maybe the gps signal is poor due to some crappy design. or maybe you are right, samsung didn't write a proper driver. but i doubt this coz even a crappy little company could have worked out some solution after 6 months. still no luck means it's more than just driver issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] maesebit:
This GPS thing is simply ridiculous. I can't believe Samsung could launch his top of the line phone with such a bug, and worse of all, I can't believe they haven't been able to solve it several months later.

People reporting the problem fixed with every firmware update, and people reporting the GPS working well when they haven't even tested it properly are also of no help whatsoever for the Galaxy S users and for themselves.

I think we should start complaining massively to Samsung since the phone is definately faulty. I think that'd be the only way we, Galaxy S users would get a properly working GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] compuse:
You drive to slow!!

But you've experienced navigating with your cellphone on other phones before?

Cos i hear nothiong but bad from my nokia costumers about their gps reception and accuracy, ..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] maesebit:
My old Samsung Omnia GPS works perfectly. Actually I keep that phone on my car since my Galaxy S GPS is completely worthless and able to guide nothing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] compuse:
Ah good then you must atleast admit that the sgs is way faster on the fix, and the accuracy, .. well, .. it wasn't that noticable on the tomtom, igo8, sygic and stuff available for the windows mobile 6.5.3 or less, right?

The omnia had hickups, for instance; tomtom placed you back about a 50 meter and jumped back again, that's not how navigational software should work.

Even after the omnia you knew that there was something wrong with samsung's idea how a gps should function, you needing to mod or translate the gps with gps-mod, gpsgate or gpsproxy.

So this is really a step forward! :)
