[G2 and Desire Z General] bobsbbq:
I have taken my first G2 back to the Store and they replaced it with a brand new one. I had problems with data connections and sometimes my water wallpaper would just disappear. I also was hoping for tighter hinges.

My second device seems to have the same data problems where sometimes I just cant get any data, then after a while it will go back to hspa+ and I can sometimes get between 1-4 bars of signal in the house, positioning effects it as well. Even when the hspa+ drops out it shows either Edge or just G. It never shows 3G so maybe this is normal? But the random no data at all is troubling me the most. One time the data stayed off for over a hour and the only way I could get it to come back on was to turn 2G only on then back off again.

I have tried without and with the new OTA update and it's the same with both.

Second issue I noticed today is when trying to record a video I had no sound in playback. Or at least that is what I thought at first. Then I made another one and talked real loud and during playback I could barely hear my voice. Has anyone else had these issues? Is there a setting somewhere to adjust the microphone for recording?

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bobsbbq:
Bump can anyone comment on the video sound?
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
The data problem I had with my g1 and g2 it all went away after a few days of use. Never used a livewallpaper so idk about that.

The bars jumping from 1-4 is a tmobile issuse . My girls nuron does the same thing at home but outside or her moms both phones r great

But on the video sound I think its a little low but also make sure you media vol is all the way up
[G2 and Desire Z General] bobsbbq:
My youtube video

Here is a video I made it appears to have good sound when playing back on Youtube. But I can't hear anything coming out of the rear speaker during playback on my G2 unless I put my ear right on the speaker and I can very faintly hear it. I just can't believe this is normal.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12rX_oV_0m8

PS I tried recording another one in regular HD not Youtube HD and I don't get any sound on my PC in Windows media player?
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
I can hear the youtube just fine. Recheck you settings on you phone. And try a soeajer phonr call to check the rear speaker.

And wmp does do while fir .mp4 and .3gp I always use quicktime. I beliveve you pc problem is a codec problem
[G2 and Desire Z General] bobsbbq:
Thanks yes I have checked the Volume on the G2 and it is all the way up. I'm not sure what you mean by soeajer phone call? With voice navigation the speaker is louder although a little high pitched and distorted, the ringtone is loud also.

EDIT: UPDATE: Well I know this is weird but I finally gave up and did a factory reset and checked again and with the media volume all the way up I can here the video now. It is not by any means good and clear and sounds kind of scratchy or slightly distorted. I guess this is just the poor quality speaker.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
Sorry meant speaker phone call. Im still getting use to swype.

But could be a bad speaker you might have to go to a tmobile store an compare there demo
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheMan42:
Fyi, the G2 won't ever show 3G, it will always be H regardless of you're in 3G coverage or HSPA.

The issue with your data sounds network related. Try calling t-mobile, they may need to do a trouble ticket.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sinfonianartist:
I have a MyTouch 3G Fender that I can't seem to get working with ADB. Apparently because I have a corrupted or incomplete OS on it, I can't get it to work.

When I boot it up in Fastboot, it connects to the USB. I can use Fastboot commands in order to get SDK to read the device, but ADB does not work. It will not read the device, so I can not make a GoldCard for my MT3G 1.2

Can anyone help me with this issue? I have updated the USB drivers through SDK, and the only thing stopping me from here on out is getting the code for my phone to make a GoldCard.

Is there a work around to make Samsung native apps play nicely?

Will HTC update our evos with the new version of sense, i like the fact that you can change the button bar and status bar to different styles. Theyll probably just leave us hanging. :(
[EVO 4G General] fmedina2:
You can already do that with our version of sense... Just use a theme.
[EVO 4G General] ImmortalLuD:
Where are the same themes that are on the Desire?...

Anyway, I loved using that interface. Themes and downloads were nice, plus the menus and size of the text and icons with the Desire HD rom were fantastic.

Hi,

I accidently flashed my Samsung Galaxy S with the Captivate Recovery Kernel 2e lol...

Dont ask why but now when I want to start my Phone I only get the Phone <-> Computer connection icon. Its like an icon which shows a phone then an orange triangle with an exclamation mark in it then a desktop symbol.

And I cant do nothing with it. Wont boot reboot nothing. Is there any chance for a recovery?

:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:

Hi,

sorry for bothering you but I managed to get it into download mode with the capitivate button combo.

Its connected now via Odin.

Can you point me to the standard Kernel for the Galaxy? I only seem to find modiefied ones. Or can you suggest me a kernel?

and then I hit start?

with or without re-partition?

did I missed something? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tonyjansen:

is it still flashing or did it hang?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] memo855:
i had a similary issue too (not the kernel but the odin hangin on zimage) .Take the battery out remove usb then pull the battery back and go again in download mode and plug the usb back start the flash.Do it again till it flashes the kernel. After a few try the flash will succeed. I'm sure this issue is related to odin and the poor samsung driver :mad:. Good luck !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] danzgrace:
use odin v1.3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
or Heimdall.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Fornowagain:
Should take seconds for a kernel. There's a tick box on odin for reboot, have that on and it should restart at the end of the flash.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
make sure auto-reset/reboot is checked.

put the kernel as PDA.

repartition UNCHECKED.

then flash. if it doesn't boot then personally i'll do a reflash.
[Desire General] ArtieQ:
I watched a review of the HTC Desire HD and I gotta say the speed and smoothness of the device is much better than the Desire. I would love to see HTC do the same with the Desire, at least the smoothness in the browser since I can't really browse pages like www.aftonbladet.se without lag and stutter, Engadget.com works perfectly tho, but it's not as complex.
[Desire General] ste1164:
Probably because the HD has a second gen snapdragon with a better gpu. Also the new sense might have some enhancements.
[Desire General] AndroHero:
yeah the desire HD has a much more powerful cpu, the gpu dosent matter as much as android ui's have no hardware graphics acceleration yet :)
[Desire General] BeatB:
Then try the miui browser (in android themes and apps thread), works fine with your webpage.

[Desire General] ArtieQ:
I don't care about flash too much, and I have plugins turned permanent off. I's not a load issue but rather a unsmooth scrolling/stutter while scrolling on some webpages.
[Desire General] BeatB:
i told u try the miui browser and u will see how smooth aftonbladet.se runs.

so in fact it's a software problem. the hardware of the desire is strong enough.

the next sense update should fix this.
[Desire General] w.0.o.t:
+1. the site runs as smooth as butter on MIUI browser. :D
[Desire General] metalk9:
Ouch, that site is a mess! It scrolls fine with cyanogenmod though. The resources used by the sense ui are probably enough to make a difference.

[Desire General] PulpzillA:
i don't understand your judging the speed of the desire with one website that doesn't load up properly? doesn't make sense!? look at the benchmarks.

It's just an example of many cluttered sites that slow up the Desire, obviously.
[Desire General] PulpzillA:

I finally plucked up the courage today to try to root my phone and I think I've made a serious mistake!

I followed the instructions from addictivetips.com about rooting a samsung galaxy spica (search for root-samsung-galaxy-spica-i5700-with-leshaks-kernel to find the page) I've put my spica into download mode and hit start on the Odin multi downloader and it seems to be hanging! The message in the box is hanging at

'<1> setup connection...'

The screenshots in the tutorial showed the whole process took only 5 minutes but ive been sitting here over 30!!

Has anyone any experience in this who could advice me on what to do next?

Should i pull the Usb out? Take out the battery or should i wait?

Hope to hear from someone soon!

Update:

I bit the bullet and took out the battery and the phone is fine, would anyone know what went wrong?

Any advice would be more than welcome!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fldude99:
Ok..so I've had the Captivate for 3 weeks and have put it through the paces..besides a few items I can live with, the one that is a HUGE issue is the font size in the gmail application. I visited my daughter and played with her Iphone and it baffles me how the Iphone can pinch to zoom in and out in the gmail app, and an android device like the Captivate cannot (AFAIK at least). There's a LOT of folks on this forum..surely someone has come across a solution for this? If you're in your mid 50's it is a big issue..maybe the target demographics for this phone indicated a "who cares" on the part of Samsung & ATT, but it's a shortfall IMO
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinien:
I'm pretty sure we can't pinch to zoom in our Gmail app but you can increase the font size. Keep in mind that the gmail app is now (Android 2.2+) download-able through the market so hopefully we'll get an update to allow pinch to zoom.

i dropped my phone in the gym changing rooms today and i think that is the reason it won't charge any more ):

my beautiful HD2 is dead ):

i can't take it to T-Mobile because i have a custom ROM on it and it would void the warranty and they wouldn't fix it

and i can't put a standard ROM back on because you need to charge your phone over 50% battery!!!

all i simply ask is that someone near me could maybe lend me a battery or their own battery so i can have enough power to flash a standard ROM back on so i can take it to a T-Mobile shop and get this problem sorted out, it would really help alot.

it's been dead 10 mins and i am lost without it.

seriously, anyone from

cambusnethan > wishaw > north lanarkshire > lanarkshire > scotland

fancy helping me out?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASCIIker:
dude, sorry to hear about the issue!

but you should know that the 50% battery requirement is only applicable if you are flashing via the usb cable while your device is in windows. however, you can still flash (via the usb cable or using the "sd card method") by placing your phone in "boot loader mode". this by passes the 50% battery check, so its worth a shot if you have enough battery, like say about 20%...i guess it would be a bit dangerous if your battery is below 10% because the flash might get interrupted if the battery runs out, further compounding your problem.

i personally recommend the "sd card method" for flashing a stock rom because this will revert BOTH your custom rom as well as your hardspl back to stock state in one go! and i believe that is exactly what you want!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YauMannn:
thanks for replying,

yeah i read before flashing from sd card wipes hspl and i've done it before too but right now my main battery is dead and the spare (ebay knock off, hd2 fake battery) is sitting about 20% i think

not sure if i should put it in to risk it?

also, because its fake, it's got about 4/5ths the battery life of the real hd2 one :/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
at 20% of a real battery you should be able to flash a half dozen times easy.
