[HD2 General] pakure:
hi friends, now every thing is good with 3.14 rom , but since i flashed this rom, i have an issue of not able to save a contact to sim (space present........ capacity-250 no., used 175 no.)...the problem is that when i save a phone contact to sim, it takes 6-8 seconds and then displays-'0 contacts saved'....

when i go into sim manager, i see this problem: (eg: name of contact is pakure)

p/M.........9490xxxxxx

pa/M........9490xxxxxx

pak/M.......9490xxxxxx

paku/M......9490xxxxxx

pakur/M.....9490xxxxxx

pakure/M....9490xxxxxx

where M is mobile ......

but only the contact pakure/M is displayed in contacts window, but these multiple entries stay in sim manager even after multiple soft resets

any clues?:confused:
[HD2 General] pakure:
none has any similar problem copying a contact to sim card?:confused:
[HD2 General] kurt-willems:
I will test it sir, and give you feedback. But honestly I never saved my contacts on SIM (less space) :rolleyes:

EDIT

No sir just did a test on my device; lucky it was temporary on Stock ROM 3.14 but I don't see this issue/problem.

Ether I don't have a clou.
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
i'm just guessing here...but it might be an incompatibility with your ROM's language and/or your regional customizations and/or some language pack you may have installed...you're in india, correct?

the reason for this theory is the sample data you've provided, which seems to show that the device is making more entries in the sim than necessary, where each entry truncates the name by one letter. i guess people that are familiar with multilingual software development and the mess caused by "unicode" might understand my theory :D
[HD7 General] colonel:
would like a system info. app that shows:

1. memory used

2. cpu speed

3. applications running (ability to kill would be nice)

4. processes running (ability to kill would be nice).

5. GPS location check and satellite sight check

6. Storage space left

anyone know anything that delivers the above please tell

thanks

[Droid X General] xoxidine:
Wither the phone is on silent/vibrate or not, the camera always makes the shutter sound. When recording a video, it always makes a bloop when you hit record and stop. There is no setting for disabling this like my previous phones have had.

Without using a third party camera app (I've seen people on other forums suggest Cool FX which is not free) is there a way to disable this?
[Droid X General] Ubermicro13:
Try searching around in the system for a .ogg file that could be the shutter sound and renaming it.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
I use an app called "Volume Toggle(free)". I set a custom profile and use an on screen widget to adjust the profiles. Set the system volume to 0. This will also get rid of the DTMF tones, unlock clicks, and other UI sounds.
[Droid X General] xoxidine:
What app do you recommend for browsing the files? The built in one doesn't seem to do much good.

This works great, but it's a bummer I have to run a third party app to do it. It is nice however that there IS a third party app to do it.
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
Yeah. It was one thing that bothered me coming from BlackBerry. Every app was customizable with sound, volume, vibration, led, etc. It was great.
[Droid X General] sephtin:
Could try SilentSnap:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/silentsnap-camera-free/com.blundell

Have heard some concerns, but it does work (After using it, double check your alarm volumes.. evidently the camera sound is DIRECTLY tied to the alarm volume... making an alternative solution to simply turn your alarm volume all the way down I believe... :)

HTH!

*Edit:

Looks like .ogg file is in /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg

Don't know what affect it would ahve to delete it.. but you could always rename it, and then make a copy of VideoRecord.ogg (which I believe is SILENT), and rename the copy to camera_click.ogg

Should work *shrug*
[Droid X General] xoxidine:
What would be the best way to find that file? What app are you using to browser the phone file system?
[Droid X General] Mudvayne622:
There is actually an easier way of doing this. Here's how to have a silent camera, including the autofocus sound with no external apps or editing/renaming system files. Turn your phone to silent on the lock screen (or use the rocker to go to no sound), then go into your native alarm app and uncheck "Alarm in silent mode."

There ya go. Turn down your phones volume and you have no camera sounds. easy easy

Just remember to turn the sound back on or your alarm will not Alarm
[Droid X General] xoxidine:
That doesn't sound like a solution. Having to modify your sound settings everytime you want to take a picture, then again when you want an alarm to go off? I would rather someone tell me what program I can use to find the sound file and modify it.
[Droid X General] indypacer:
To delete/rename the file, you'll want to use Root Explorer. This requires you be rooted, which I'm just guessing from the nature of your posts you're not (since Root Explorer is often one of the first apps someone gets when rooting).
[Droid X General] xoxidine:
It is rooted, I'm still figuring out what put on there as far as apps go. Looks like it's about $4.
[Droid X General] xoxidine:
I found a great solution. It's called SilentSnap. It disables all sound from the system when it opens it. It uses your normal camera and disables the shutter sound. Its free.

Ive saved hopefully a ton of questions asked before hand and read up on how to create bootanimation.zip files. hopefully with the goal of creating some pretty sweet boot screens. ive got my sequence of .png files in the proper folders and im basically using the same img size and format from a previous bootanimation.zip to base mine on.

Id love to get some help going with this, maybe turn this into a how-to by the time its done:D

EDIT:

so after removing the only images that played during the startup i found that i had nothing displayed at all. this lead me to think there was something about those images that worked. i found out that by default .zip files are normally compressed a bit and that will cause issues. So i changed my method to storage/no compression and BINGO i can see it starting from the begging of the sequence

Now comes the next bit im having trouble with.. its loading slow and choppy. ive loaded tons of boots before that played without this lag. in the desc.txt file ive tried to change the framerate to a few different values, 210, 30, 15, but this doesnt seem to have any effect....ive also tried loading the zip file file to /system/media/ and /data/local/ without any success.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bamonkey:
Ive limited the number of total frames and kept fps at 30. Ill go ahead and post the boot animation zip i have compiled and am using right now. ill hopefully add an animated gif posting later if it will let me

CHeeers!

I get the impression Microsoft don't care. Every suggestion I've made to Microsoft so far has either been dismissed as irrelevant or aggressively attacked.

Hi,

I am Android newcomer.

With WinMobile could be set somewhere in the Regestry the duration of the vibration of the haptic feedback (eg 20 ms). Where and how can I set for Android. For example. It is at "SwiftKey" possible, of course, only for the program, I would like to keep it for the whole Androidfeedback, I find the vibration that is too long! ...

Greetings

This seems to have been removed in CM9 and I miss the feature.

I really would love to look at this more and I've tried to search the source for the CM7 settings app but I can't find where this setting is implemented. I would love to create a mod for this since it seems CM9 are not implementing a lot of old features.

If someone knows where I could look further to find out how this is achieved I would love a pointer :)

There is a Play Store app named Vibrate Smart that may have what you seek.

I was wondering if anyone knew what files we needed to edit to enable the adhoc support. I know it has been done for many other phones and most of those were just zips flashed from recovery - obviously we cannot do that but all those zips did was edit 1 or 2 files in system.

Would love even if someone had the long way of going in and editing yourself! I don't care if it goes away on restart either!

Been using the Galaxy S as a second multi-media device while waiting for the official 2.2 to be released by O2 UK (don't want to risk any unofficial firmware update due to the 3 button combo, not being available on this device).

The Galaxy can see contacts on the Sim card, but I want to sync it with my contacts in Outlook 2007. When I connect the phone to Kies (latest version), Kies shows my contacts and when I ask it to sync with outlook, the progress bar appears and successfully completes, but when I disconnect the phone, the outlook contacts have not been transfered to the phone.

I don't want to use Google contacts but simply transfer contacts (name, address, email) to the Galaxy S from Outlook 2007.

What should I do ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
Maybe its not displayed because its not set up to? goto contacts and click on options/more/display options and play around with it. I think you want to look at PHONE setting but I don't know as I don't use kies and everything for me is set to GMAIL/GOOGLE only as i've had bad experiences with leaving numbers in phones and sim cards (if you loose the phone you loose both)

Thanks for the answers (and sorry if I start another battle : mine is working, not mine, ...).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkoroje:
I don't think anybody knows for sure and Samsung has recently been very quiet about GPS and GPS fixes. If GPS is a critical feature for you than I think it is fair to say you are better off buying another phone, maybe a Desire or Desire HD.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mycorrhiza:
Most likely all Galaxy S will have crap GPS hardware.

No firmware can fix this.

An external GPS receiver will fix this for in-car use though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewluecke:
The Desire HD has better specs regardless.

You must also remember the most vocal of those who supports the SGS GPS (DamianGTO) has some pretty crazy claims, but seems to get pretty defensive when asked to actually prove the quality of his GPS.

The GPS is merely average on this phone, but it could be far better, and even 4 year old Garmin fitness watches seem to produce more consistent results. The GPS sometimes looks accurate, and then goes skitzo suddenly. There are FAR safer phone choices available. My mum also recently got a Desire, and not sure about the GPS, but there are minor things which are more polished than the SGS's firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opica:
Mind boggling this GPS isn't it?

I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER, bought the phone in July, GPS is very much perfect.

I'm using Navigon.

Satellite locks in under a minute.

PS: tested about 500km in a car, highways, normal roads.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billus:
I too don't see any problems with the GPS in the Galaxy S, think this story has blown way out of hand. GPS locks in 30 seconds and is for the most part fairly accurate when I use NDrive. Brutmod or whatever its called doesn't work for me at all and was very unreliable. However, both Co-Pilot, NDrive and Trapster work flawlessly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maesebit:
My phone's battery shows 21. Sept and my GPS is flawed.

In my experience, the GPS works ok in open spaces. Driving on roads, highways, and outside the city the GPS performs OK.

The problem is when you try to use it into de city. Then it seems unable to keep lock on satellites while you're moving around streets sorrounded by buildings.

It also performs better some days than others for unknown reasons.

In my opinion. If GPS is important for you, buying any other phone will be a safer choice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t1mman:
I'd advise one thing, ask if you can take it out for a "spin", walk / run / drive around for a while and record the track. You'll see if you have something descent.

Apparently, some are, some aren't. Mine isn't "acurate" by itself but it is flawless with trackerbooster (can be found in app).

Between the SGS and the Desire HD, the SGS has the better display and a waayyy better GPU. DHD has a better cam (as per specs, we should see pictures from both to be sure) and a camera flash (but SGS has night mode, wich is, in my opinion, way more wrorthy than a flash)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilboa1:
GPS is basically average.. its not without flaws.. far from it.. but it works ok in most cases. It's just not a super great GPS.
