On CPW unbranded with JPO here and also unable to enter Post codes, numeric only :(

(Not that it matters for me really, never fill out that much info in contacts)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] petethesparky:
You can edit the contact details in your online (google) address book to include a postal address. When your phone syncs the contacts with your google account, the correct details are transferred to the phone.

I just tried it and it works like a charm :)

Failing that, you can just put the whole address in the "Street" field. When it's displayed on your phone contacts list it will only show fields that contain data, so it looks fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tehpriest:
I am aware of this it also does this from my Outlook but. If you want to Navigate to a contact address you really do need the post code for accuracy. The field is there for a reason and this is just one of them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] petethesparky:
Understood.

For me personally, it's a workaround that gives me nice looking, synchronisable addresses in the meantime.

I can see how it would be useless if you wanted to search by postcode or something :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] homer timpson:
I appreciate that but, following on from Pete's workaround via gmail/synch, once the contact is on the phone

with the full address it is immediately viewable in Google Maps with options for directions and navigation.

A workaround yes, but one that works thankfully.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] amwebby:
Workarounds are only employed when there is a major flaw in software and that is what this is. Perhaps it is a product of the American-centric nature of Android and that continent's dominance of the "smartphone revolution" but it is still a disgrace and for Samsung to have allowed it to slip out into general release after such a prolonged period of testing is nothing less than incompetence on the part of their project managers.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Maggs69:
Unbranded UK spec SGS with the XEU product code - Zip codes only, no Alpha/Numeric :(

Do Samsung have a site that we can report bugs? or are we just relying on them reading this forum?

I wonder if the Galaxy Tab, which was released running FROYO, has the postcode bug?

The lag seen with ADW is really starting to annoy me. At first I was ultra happy with the phone, but then some of my friends with iphone 4s pointed out how choppy the switching of homescreens was on the N1 along with the stutter seen on the app drawer. I have googled everything and cant find a fix. I already tried doing the recomended settings from the link below, but there is still lag. Will switching to launcher pro fix my issues? I am hesitant to switch because I love that ADW has the look of the stock froyo launcher, is it even possible to have the stock dock look in launcher pro?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Ignorance is bliss...

Now ask your friends with iPhone to show you an app that will automatically turn off their WiFi and turn on BT when they leave their home, for example. Then ask them to show you live wallpaper on their phones. When they fail, chill out and understand that you can't fix it. Android launchers aren't capable of seamless scrolling, because the system behind them wasn't meant for pretty graphics.

You're only 2346851 in number to ask this question.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smachine:
Haha so true, ignorance is great. Yea i know alot of people had similar questions, but all the threads i found were not for N1s and they were pretty old, figured out some genius must have done something about it since just about everything else has been done on these xda forums. I just hate seeing wasted potential. The snapdragon and 512mb ram is more than enough horsepower to get simple smooth scrolling down. Just wish there was some type of gpu acceleration support.

By the way how do you turn off the wifi automatically when you leave home? I rely on the powercontrol widget.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] md2:
I had a similar point from an iPhone user, I barely noticed it - and then I pointed out I was running a custom launcher (launcher pro) with a TON of widgets and animated wallpaper. Since then an update has made it silky smooth.

There are a few themes in launcher pro, default froyo is one - I use wide froyo which gives me:

phone-contacts-app-drawer-sms-browser

buttons.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Gingerbread should help in this department, or so they say. Currently the best the launchers can do still has a hiccup or two from time to time. Personally, I don't even notice it, using LauncherPro, as the poster above me, with all 7 screens full of icons and widgets, and Starfield wallpaper.

Locale. It's a great concept app. I used it, but stopped - now I just keep BT and WiFi constantly on (BT almost doesn't drain battery - usually less than 2% of the power - and WiFi is present at home and at work, so I turn it off only when the phone is expected to last long in places where no WiFi is found). Since I don't have other uses - like turning down the volume automatically in specific places, etc - I stopped using it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adambenjamin:
Have you changed the app drawer to 4 apps per row? I remember 5 per row being set on cm6, that will make some difference.

Yes, launcher Pro has a Froyo dock look. In the settings its called "froyo" I think. It looks pretty good, a little different than ADW.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smachine:
Yea i did change it to 4 apps per row, and it did help a little. Im going to test out launcher pro. Is there anything i should know about switching launchers and running cyanogen 6? If i dont like launcher pro will it be easy to switch back? Some places said that adw still runs in the background and that i have to uninstall adw for it to not hog any resources.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mokurex:
You can easily switch back. A lot of people seems to be experiencing a little lag with adw in the latest CM version. Launcher pro doesn't have this issue.

I'm not sure about Adw running in the background, but you can easily uninstall it using titanium backup.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smachine:
I just played around with launcherpro and im not impressed. There was still lag, though it could have been because i didnt set a default launcher and adw was still running in the background. The switching between the homescreens was a little smoother, but thats because it did it alot slower. I prefer the more stock look that adw offers. On launcher pro the screens had 4x4 columns/rows but i didnt like the grid spacing. For some reason my beautiful widgets weather/clock was 20% smaller in size compared to ADW. Not sure why the widgets and icon sizes are smaller in launcherpro (i kept switching back and forth between launchers to compare).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctbear:
My experience is that Launcher pro is generally smoother and faster than ADW. I believe the newer versions of ADW have improved quite a bit, but LP still gets my vote.

However since the 22x nightlies as well as the official 6.1RC1, I have been experiencing some lags no matter which launcher I am using

If you need to stay with CM, you might wanna try another kernel, it helps
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smachine:
I bought my nexus with cm6 already installed, and still havent bothered updating to the newest 6.1 version. Mainly im just waiting till the end of the month. Dont want to mess anything up and i need my phone to be fully functional till then. All i know is that in the sd card I saw a clockworkmod file, so im assuming thats the backup. I will go into installing custom roms probably when gingerbread is released. I might try installing launcher pro again and uninstalling adw fully and see if that fixes the lag. I like ADW and just wish the app scrolling was a little more smooth.

**** I just found out that my ADW version was 1.0.1, and there have many updates since then. I found a 1.2.0 version and will test that out. http://code.google.com/p/adw-launcher-android/downloads/list
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCinToronto:
Learn to play with your N1. Once you're proficient, you could easily do partial wipes and ROM flips inside of 5mins.

Heck, if you've got a good wifi you might be able to wipe full and restore inside of 10 mins.

Point being, you'd feel safer about trying/looking at changes like a new different launcher and ROMs, knowing that you can flip back to a solid setup with all your data and apps intact.

This play is part of the beauty in the N1.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChongoDroid:
Couldn't agree more I used to juggle roms and now I use miuimod with lpp with the screen cache turned off and if I have to compete against a iPhone showdown then I put my min CPU at 384 and it should be as smooth if not smoother. :) n1 is great for tinkering :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rottenjello138:
also turning off the transparency in the drawer should help improve smoothness
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smachine:
Found out the cause of the problem was live wallpapers. On launcher pro, as soon as live wallpaper was disabled it ran like butter. I was hoping to get live wallpapers to work also, but having lag is not a good trade off.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
A lot of it depends on the specific wallpaper in question. Slower, more subtle animations tend to behave better (and use less battery) than some of the more intense ones. I recommend one called Substrate - it slowly evolves and changes, but keeps the homescreen transitions very smooth and snappy.

I'm currently running one called "better matrix" or something similar that is very eye catching but doesn't bog things down too much.

[General Questions and Answers] brenners:
So, here's the deal. I have a Motorola Backflip, it has been rooted and now runs 2.1 instead of Android 1.5. A few weeks ago, I woke up after charging my phone all night and it was very hot. It wouldn't turn on, I panicked, then later I tried and it was fine. Now, it happened again this morning when I woke up. It was very hot, I waited for it to cool off, and tried to charge it again, because it wasn't charging all night. When I plug it in, it recognizes it's plugged in with a little vibration, does the white screen with the Motorola M for a bit, then shows the "0%" screen with a charging battery. Then, it vibrates to show it's plugged in, shows the white screen with the Motorola M for a bit, then once again shows the "0%" screen with a charging battery. It keeps doing that, and won't charge. I obviously can't turn the phone on since it will not charge, and the battery is dead. I am using a normal wall charger, but I will try charging it through the computer to see if that makes any difference. Any suggestions? Is my phone okay, or should I give up?
[General Questions and Answers] ace354:
U need a new battery
[General Questions and Answers] knox902:
Just woke up to the very same thing with my backflip. It may have something to do with the amount of current going through the connection. I had mine plugged into the back accessory port on my old Blackberry Bold dock. The one that has a spot for the bold upfront, spot for a bluetooth headset, extra battery charger and an extra USB port on the back(I use it and my old Bold as a bedside alarmclock/internet radio now :P.) I had been playing a bit of leaf green on gameboid last night with it plugged in and woke up to a feircly hot Backflip that would not power on. it was on until I picked it up then turned off. i hit the power button and it just kept cycling through the moto M logo and then returning to the 0% battery screen and then off. i disconnected it from there, plugged it into my laptop where i could only get the micro-usb led to blink... it would not power on at all. I then got my Blackberry Torch's little usb wall adapter and tried that out and it worked like a charm. phone loaded up the way it was intended to.

Now as far as amperages go, for the dock i am unsure, it states on the wall plug it has an output of 1600ma, but for up to 4 devices... i am unsure as to how much power is restricted to each port if any. I only had the bold and backflip connected to it. My laptop has powered USB ports which deliver 550ma's each which is typical and in my experience often not enough to start a device from 0%. My BB wall adapter is 750ma's which has to be my personal preference. I actually refuse to plug my Torch into a USB port until i know it does not supply over 750ma's for fear of ruining my battery like had before on other phones not designed to use a 1amp charger. I am assuming my Backflip has the same idea.

Hullo.

Finally got my Tab (BOOYAH! :D)

installed several apps, and quite big ones at that. Noticed my internal storage was going down but not the internal memory or sd was going down.

Basically, at which point will apps be stored on the sd card? After internal storage has run out?

[Galaxy Tab General] 513:
Only certain apps can be moved to the SD card, but it's up to the developer to make his app movable.

I suggest you to download this little app

http://www.appbrain.com/app/app-2-sd-(move-apps-to-sd)/com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd

It will scan your apps to know which one are movable.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomertwo:
You can still use it as a PDA but just no phone calls.

Sadly I don't think you can do anything to get the phone working again unless you convince your EX to tell Verizon that the phone is no longer stolen.

Anything else is up to the carrier.

if the phone is reported stolen then the ESN is most likely locked, making it worthless. If it is your ex's phone plan then she would have to report it found to have it unlocked, unless you have access to her account and authorization.

[myTouch 4G Accessories] zenlakin:
Just curious if any of your guys are using any particular hard or gel cases for the MT4G that you are happy with so far? I need to get one for my wife's phone and want to see what the community is using thus far...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Whorok305:
Im using one and it fits nice and tight. It came packaged with a screen protector and a microfiber cloth with the mytouch logo on it. I really like gel covers, it kinda absorbs drops. I had one on my cliqxt at it kept it looking brand new with no battle scars
[myTouch 4G Accessories] kitsunisan:
I got the same one, problem I have with it is it picks up dust so easily. It goes from being a black gel case to grey. I did see one at T-Mobile I really liked, a thin grey gel skin with a hard white back that went over it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] pack:
i find hard cases to be more for logo's/styles... its hard to find a hard case thats actually tight and protective from all angels, most the time when its dropped it just pops right off... gel cases absorbs the shock but also doesn't pop off so prevents scratching... TPU cases are nomally not as "sticky" as gel cases where fibers from your pocket will stick to them... all in all its personal preference

[myTouch 4G Accessories] surfnhawaii808:
This is the one I use and I LOVE IT! Soft on the inside, hard on the outside! Slides EASILY in and out of case/pocket and NO LINT/DIRT collection on it like with bare GEL covers.... Pricey at $30 but worth it!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] pack:
That case does look sick on the phone (thanks for the pic's) but does it make the phone thick? I usually end up taking my case off just because I prefer thin phones... I would imagine this would be like using 2 cases hence doubling the thickness?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] kitsunisan:
The gel case is very thin, doesn't add a whole lot of bulk to it. It winds up being about as thick as a standard case.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] NexVision:
Very thin much better then the gelskin and sits almost flush with the screen so its real easy to type on the edges.

[myTouch 4G Accessories] brainz11203:
who sells the cases? and where i can i buy one
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Kienz:
That's the one I have. Actually, that particular case is what decided for me whether to get the Black/Red model or the White one (which I chose).

Had they had this exact setup in Black/Red, I would have gone that way. But as it stands, I really like it. Plus, it has the "MyTouch" logo on the back, which adds to it's "Not-from-some-mall-kiosk" appearance.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ESKIMOn00b:
T-mo stores...

my only gripe is how hard the case is to get on properly, which would be no problem exept you cant dock it with it on...
[myTouch 4G Accessories] kitsunisan:
If they had the grey/black combo I'd have bitten the bullet and gotten it. Of course, vinyl dye would work pretty well, as long as you give it a few days to cure.

[myTouch 4G Accessories] nmw407:
Went to the tmo store yesterday and looked at the cases. Every single one of them covers the dock buttons, so if you're planning on docking it, you'll have to take it out of its case, dock it, put it back in etc...etc... What a pain. If they make a car dock, that's going to be even worse.

I can just see my typical day... wake up, take out of dock, slip into case, get to car, slip out of case, on to car dock, get to work, get out of car dock, slip into case, get to desk, slip out of case, put into desk dock, go to lunch, slip into case, etc... OMG!

The only one I saw that wouldn't be too bad is the plastic holster that just cradles the front and leaves the back open.

[HD2 General] crisisinthecity:
If the phone is still under warranty you need to contact HTC directly and they will replace it. T-Mobile will not do anything if you aren't on their service. I don't even think they will do it if you are on there service, but got the phone from a third party that they aren't partnered with.

Call HTC support. Don't mention that you loaded Android on it. Play dumb. And if it's Hard SPL'd change it back to stock before you send it in.
