with all the recent b/s going on with my theme i choose not to dev, port anything for android anymore.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriemMastR:
@venumx

Thanks for the link!

@mysteryemotionz

I'm very sorry you had a poor experience. My quick search didn't find the issues you referred to, but I have seen instances of members acting ungrateful in the ROM/customization community, and it upsets me every time. The developers are creating all this and giving it to the users for free. There's no reason for complaints. If I don't like something, I simply don't use it. I still appreciate someone took the time to give me another option. If that wasn't your experience I apologize on behalf of everyone involved. Much thanks for what you did contribute before you were convinced otherwise.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
look in my themes thread. also look in the baked snack thread where it all started.

not everyone is like you and expect everything for free. use devolpers do this has a hobby and dont ask for a dime. yes we have donation links but we dont force you to donate to use are product. ive s[ent well over 30 hours alone working on my theme and thats with the help i recived from others. why should i continue my work if people are going to be un gratefull about it

[Windows Phone 7 General] dacunto:
Does anyone know or have a list of some sort of current 3rd party apps that support the live tile function? Right now I know of only one, Weatherbug. I hope that twitter and Facebook add this function.

Although I did see a WP7 commerical with a samsung focus that highlighted a Twitter app (looked like the official twitter app) that had the number of new tweets show up on the tile.....maybe its a soon to be added feature.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Sir. Haxalot:
I think that many developers is waiting until they get a better way of managing the live tiles, with animations and such as seen in the "native" tiles.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Croak:
AP Mobile news app sort of has a live tile.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
Solo devs will need a lowcost/free way to provide the needed services to make a live tile. Also, it's rather new to most people, so we'll probably see more live tiles in future generations.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
Has there been any other new apps with live tiles?

So far I see

Weather Bug

The Weather Channel

GReadie (doesn't work for me)

HTC HUB (doesn't work for me)

Beezz (Doesn't work for me)

Flixter
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
just remember though... at the time of testing each app, a few different servers are involved and one could of been down and you should try again.

for example beezz goes from your phone to MS servers to beezz, to twitter. so if one link is stuffed, live tile is gone.

SGS screen is awesome, even if colors are not really well calibrated...

Yesterday, I saw a recent Galaxy S and it was really brighter than mine (4 months year old)

I noticed a huge difference!

Did anyone of you got the same experience?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nailerr:
Insulting question perhaps, but did you check the brightness slider of both phones?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mathieumeuh:
Of course, I wouldn't have started a thread! lol

Same rom, same kernel, same phone, same country, same settings. I'll try to post some pictures
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Arramond:
We just got 4 at work. The supplier told us they only had 1 left a few weeks ago and we had to wait until they got new stock so when they turned up we had one from an old batch and three newer ones. The one older one was very noticably darker then the 3 newer ones even with exactly the same screen settings. It also had a slight blue tint to it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] goyal.sanchit:
My brother and I both have I9000 Galaxy. The 1st phone (the older one) was very bright that it resulted in eye strain while using!

After about a month when I bought a new Galaxy S it was very dark compared to the older phone on same settings and same firmware.

So maybe its the issue with some phones or I am guessing that the older phone suffered from backlight bleeding! But now the screen broke and I bought a replacement screen from ebay.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] android53:
Oled screens don't have a backlight
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dreamtheater39:
they dont need a backlight to be viewable.....but SGS still has a backlight to boost the total brightness :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nailerr:
Now THAT explains something. I have a pixel tester and when I set it to black, in a pitch black room I can still see the screen. Well now I know... You sure about that though? Even the Samsung Super AMOLED videos make a point of there being no backlight.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nailerr:
AMOLED does die over time, blue first. So as I understand it most of these AMOLED screens in phones have twice the blue pixels to make up for it over time. I would of suspected that the lifetime is a few years though, not months.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dnsp:
There is no backlight in S-AMOLED displays.

As you can see, there is no lamp, neither a white background needed for the light to reflect.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nailerr:
Thought so. So, can anyone explain to me why I can see my screen in the dark when the phone is showing only a black screen? Such as with the dead pixel checking app I used? Perhaps it does not correctly request true black but even noLED from these forums does it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] echidna2001:
I would expect it's due to leakage current.

Each pixel on the screen is controlled by a transistor (actually probably more than one). Even when the transistor is turned off (and the pixel should be dark) there will still be a small amount of current leak through. I suspect that this is what causes the screen to glow slightly even when displaying black.

Of course when the entire screen is turned off, no power is going to the display, so even this small current stops and the screen is darker.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] raf2k:
Maybe Samsung has switched to SLCD screens.

The rumour circulated few months ago that Samsung has stopped the production of the Wave and the Galaxy S smartphones because of the Super AMOLED shortage.

Maybe now they are shiping SGS with SLCD.

The SLCD screens are much brigther than SAMOLED.

Here is the comparison:

http://sefanboy.com/2010/10/29/samsung-wave-ii-vs-samsung-galaxy-s-slcd-vs-super-amoled/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thedauntlessone:
I highly doubt samsung would discontinue the SGS line for any reason. In fact, they just started to showcase the 7inch SAMOLED most likely for the next gen galaxy tab.

However, here's a comparison.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mathieumeuh:
I'm sure it was an AMOLED Screen, easy to recognize...

I'll try to make some photos.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] penfold:
i got mine when it first came out and i have it on zero brightness setting and it is bright and clear (except in sunlight when it becomes as hard as any other phone to see)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nightmare56:
ive tried about 15 of these phones and the screens on all of them were different when set to the highest brightness. The most common differences were darker and lighter shades of blue. a couple were more red than others and looked 'warmer'. The one im using right now is pretty neutral though :) not sure why that is but they all seem to be different.

(all 15 were running JH2 stock with no lagfixes on i9000m from bell)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ImraanK:
Argh...

I have a dead green pixel towards the bottom of the phone... And now that i know its there.. I keep looking at it! Def wasnt dead when i got it :(

A good way to test the pixels is via the *#0*# menu... red, green and blue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] emms:
i always have brightness settings at the lowest and when i was using eclair rom everything was really dark. after flashing froyo rom i noticed straight away even at the lowest settings the phone is still pretty bright but green colour does not look good at all.

Is there any way I can get asphalt 5 working on the slide? My sister has a g2 and she has the game and its my favorite android game yet, but the slides screen isn't the right size or something to play it. Is there some way I can play it?
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] PcFish:
Not really, sorry bud. You can mess with the pixel density on your phone a bit to try to get it to fit, but it'll never be perfect. You can find it in build.prop and just push.

Tried changing density but couldnt get it to work, one thing about changing density that I thought was weird is that the rom manager app's icon changes. Its so wierd lol!

[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] mingolianbeef:
The Answer to your problems :)

hey dude :) i have a LOT of games (HD) working on my slide! just go to this site and download freely! None of these are viruses i have downloaded the vast majority of them, played them, and can verify functionality! word of caution, though, i STRONGLY recommend you have either a Froyo or Sense rom with data2ext (i use 3rd Sense Rom in the devs forums) becuz for some odd reason, CyanogenMod will not run them. for example, on Sims 3, i tried running it, and it would show the little EA logo w/ the (sims) diamond above it, and just exit to the homescreen! no force close message or anything! but anyways the games on this site were resized to HVGA (mytouch slide sized) screens and, like i sed, fully functioning! all you need is a mouse and a web browser that translates the page (i.e. Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, etc.) have fun with your new games :)

I install Spb Mobile Shell 3 on my Xperia but it is not in a panels...i cant find him :confused: ....what to do???

sorry for bad english...

Thanks
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altae:
SPB Mobile Shell 3 generally doesn't work as a panel. If you want it as a panel you have to either download the official one from SE (version 2) or look for the korean version 3 which should be available here at xda. The current version 3.5 is definitely not available as a panel.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biker007:
How does it work...?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altae:
How does what work? Downloading one of the versions I mentioned :-)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paranone:
If you get SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 from SPB's website, you install it and it should replace the standard Windows Mobile today screen on the first panel, if not, try to open the start menu and launch SPB Home.

As altae mentionned, there is also a free panel but it is just an alternative Today (main) screen and doesn't offer much customization or full menu system replacement like the full version.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mymailx:
I'm not sure about the version but from http://ruslyfriend.blogspot.com/2010/11/xpure-applications-for-wmpure-xt.html, there's a newer SPB Panel than X1. Hope it helps.
[TG01 General] fxdjacentyfxd:
Hi.

Question in title is not without sense. Saying good ROM I mean ROM that

not necessaryly has to look - it has no meaning for me it looks nice or not.

It has to work as operating system should : be stable in all situations, without memory leakages, fast as possible.

I tested few ROMs s so far and none of them fulfilled above criterias. Sooner or later soft reset had to be done.

I am full of adimration for "cookers" for their work so do not be angry for my post :) Maybe my question has no sense however, because base of it all, original WM kernel, drivers and other files, are simply with bugs and that is why good ROM will never be created ?

Regards

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 General] Howell:
Well... not a silly question but there is simply no answer.

A good rom for you may not be the same as a good one for me...

IMHO and by my experience, stock roms are often more stable but are clutterred with operator's junk software.

Be aware that, for exemple, 6.5.x roms come from other devices and must be adapted to TG01 so this can generate bugs. The same way, the more you add things into a rom (software and tweaks) the more you risk problems.

Another exemple : adding Sense to a non-HTC device is risky in terms of fiability and memory available space.

Anyway... Windows Mobile is not that stable...

My next PDA will be an Android one ;)
[TG01 General] sinjinn:
I use miro 2016 . it is stable and sense makes more sense than stock rom.

I tried 2018 . it was faster but much less stable
[TG01 General] fxdjacentyfxd:
Which ROM is it ? I can olny see 2018 in mirRom ROM names .

I just change to use Galaxy S.I want to know about update froyo.Cos my friend just update from 2.1 to 2.2 everything was good but when scroll the menu icon it's doesn't stable.So can anyone confirm does the Froyo run stable on galaxy s?

My Galaxy S

-Firmware Version 2.1-Update1

-Baseband Version I9000BOJF1

If someone has SGS that has baseband version as me can confirm does froyo run stable on it?

Sorry for my bad English.:p
[Desire HD General] liteswap:
Bluetooth switches itself off when my new DHD goes into standby.

This means that when using a headset and the phone rings, I can't pick up the call with the headset, and the phone doesn't switch the audio back to the headset if I switch Bluetooth back on during the call and press the reconnect button on the headset - this would be expected behaviour, and has worked on other phones.

I can't find a setting to fix this problem, nor a solution in these forums or elsewhere. Is it a bug or have I missed something?
[Desire HD General] liteswap:
Ok I've found the problem: I'm running an app called battery Booster designed to help conserve battery power. One of its default settings includes turning off Bluetooth when the device is locked. D'oh!

Hi

Got mine off contract from PC World.

Market Place worked beautifully with no SIM in.

There are some oddities with some apps like Music Hub that insist on mobile data connection, but I don't think Market Place is one of them.

Can you see market place .. and select apps to download .... and it's just the install that fails ?

Which apps ?

I had a similar issue with some apps (not all) and my HD2 running 2.2 ... but not with the Tab so far.

Paul.
[Galaxy Tab General] alias_neo:

Mines from PCWorld also,

I did two things, one of which has now fixed it:

First I did a factory reset from the settings menu, and second, I set up up this time wit ha straight up google account and not my "Google Apps for your Domain" address.

Don't know which solved it but it's fine now.

FYI: The error was the standard "Installation of ...... was unsuccessful" when selecting any app from the market.

to start things off, here is the video, i just uploaded it so it may take a while to process.

the buttons on this case are amazing, i love how they protrude from the case making them super easy access, the only thing i did not like about this buy was the screen protector did not make it across the entire screen. other than that this thing is perfect. would definitly buy again.

volume button

top back

bottom back

as a whole

captivate- outer shell - inner shell

again front side

inner shell bendability. yes i made that word up.

and the one issue i had with the case, as you can see there is some space left over on the screen that is unprotected, the screen cover did not make it all the way down the screen probably 1-2 mm of space, enough for some annoying dirt
[Captivate Accessories] Dnorwood:
Got mine in the mail today, can't post pictures or links because I am a noob. Here are my thoughts:

1. Screen protector: I didn't like the screen protector. Too much drag, even more than the invisible shield I had installed prior to the Otterbox. So I am going to go naked in terms of screen protection. I am pretty careful with it so hopefully I won't scratch the screen.

2. Added width/thickness: this case does add thickness to the phone, mainly in width. Honestly I do like the added feel to the phone. In relation to thickness, it is noticable, but compared to my wife's 3GS with an Incase slide on case, it is still thinner.

3. Feel: I like the feel of the case, doesn't add that much weight, but def feels much sturider in hand. The hard shell cover that goes over the rubber doesn't feel overly "cheap" per se, but doesn't quite feel "refined". Probably just my preference again, so YMMV.

4. Materials: As stated before the outer shell feels as if it could have been refined a little more in feel. The shell only wraps around the phone horizontally, leaving only the liner exposed on the very top and very bottom of the phone. The inner liner is a bit flimsy and can be easily lifted from the phone while pulling it out of a pocket while sitting down (I always keep my phone screen "in" in my pocket just in case I walk into a corner). There is a plug for the headphone jack that seals quite well.

Any other questions, feel free to ask.
[Captivate Accessories] pyrplhaze:
does it come with a belt clip, or is that only with the defender case?

how about the in/out of the pocket....any drag, or pulling out the pocket with the phone?

thanks for the info!
[Captivate Accessories] insaneturbo13:
clip is only with the defender

there is no drag through the pocket, i can see where the rubber material might drag a little bit but not enough to tell.
