Why don't you just trade the phone for an evo?don't ruin the phone by gluing it shut.try a case for another galaxy s phone like a T-Mobile one.I prefer hard keyboards myself.but for simple messaging the on screen keyboard does suffice.
[Epic 4G Accessories] mikeschevelle:
Because I like everything else on the Epic, the touchwiz, swype, AMOLED, ect.

Im not gluing it shut BTW :D
[Epic 4G Accessories] stir fry a lot:
Have you tried Ultra Keyboard? I prefer it to Swype, especially in landscape mode.
[Epic 4G Accessories] mikeschevelle:
That doesnt solve my case issue :D
[Epic 4G Accessories] mikeschevelle:
The dimensions are 4.9"x 2.5"x 0.6"

There has to be something close. I was thinking of a samsung vibrant cheapo skin from china and hoping the tolerances were a tad on the big side, its dimensions are 4.9x2.5x0.4
[Epic 4G Accessories] keekah:
Another idea...

Self fusing silocone tape.

It fuses to itself without the use of adhesives so it won't stick to your phone.

You can use it to either "fix" the ebay case or just create a bumper for it.

There is tommy tape and rescue tape. And others too if you just google it.

I will pay $50 or more if someone can unbrick my Epic. I will not back out of it as so many seem to do...the alternative is buying a new phone and this seems a lot cheaper to me ;).

Problem...phone went into boot-loop one day out of nowhere. Tried flashing a backup and the phone locked halfway through. Tried wiping everything and flashing a ROM from scratch. Got halfway through and stopped.

Now the phone will NOT GO INTO CLOCKWORK OR SAMSUNG RECOVERY. It loads to the "SAMSUNG: www.samsungmobile.com" screen and that's it.

Please help...I'm desperate :(

Tayutama's JPM Froyo w/Xcaliburinhand's Re-oriented Kernel - 11/04/2010 -- possible security concern

Installed the above ROM.

ROM Post link:

Working good on my Captivate.

One concern: How do I take off the "minus" marks on the app icons that lets us delete apps right from the home screen (the screen we get when we click on the home button).

I see this as a security risk. I have app protector pro. But then, we can just delete the app protector pro in this mode without even asking for any password or anything, and all my apps are open for everyone to use.

Could anyone please help me take off this option to quick uninstall apps from home screen.

Nope. I am serious. So far I realized that unless a person knew how to mod a Captivate, he didn't know how to access protected apps. But now, even a layman can just delete the 'app protector pro' and access all the apps that are supposed to locked by it.

You do know that once you rooted your phone, anyone with a little knowledge can do much more than simply delete apps... ;) just don't lose your phone or give it to an iphone buddy who might wonder what the neat little thingys on your screen do

Bye. What launched are you using that you see this in.... and deleting an icon from your home screen does not uninstall it on any that I have used
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Not the icon. Like when u press the home icon, u can see all the apps present on ur device. For user installed apps, u can see a small "minus" in a circle on the right top of app icon, just like in iphone when u go to edit mode. click on that, and it will uninstall the app.

Others have already pointed this out, but what you need to do is dl and install a different launcher from Market and then uninstall the TWLauncher. Problem solved.

Just because TWLauncher is the default in Cog 2.4.1 doesn't mean that you have to use it. Get another launcher. Or you could try never letting your phone out of your sight...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pete2s:
I am trying to account for missing memory--about 300MB. I believe the HTC WP7 and iPhones also miss this 300MB so I'm wondering what the OSs are doing with it.

I have a Samsung Focus that I added an 8GB SD card to for a total of 16GB of memory. 16GB to the OS, when properly converted to binary, is 14.9GB. My total storage, however, is only 14.59GB. It seems both the HTC's that have 16GB and the iPhone's that have 16GB also sit around 14.6GB.

So does anyone know what is happening to that 300MB?

I'll take a guess: WP7 creates a partition of 300MB on the unified internal + SD card drive where it installs itself from the ROM after being fully reset or turned on for the first time. This would be different from Android, though, that runs both the OS and apps from the ROM.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Pete2s:
Yes I read that article. My Samsung Focus has no problems with an ancient class 2 SD card.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Phone Titan:
It could be reserved for something within the OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Pete2s:
It looks like the iPhone is storing the OS in that 300MB, but WP7s have the ROM that store the OS--so I'm still not sure where the 300MB is being used. I doubt the 300MB is a result of the file system.
[Android Themes] ogami_ito:
Hi,

I'm trying to get dark-ish wallpapers for my "theme". But what I would really like is to have (or, if need be, make) a wallpaper for my Samsung Galaxy S (SGS) which is different on multiple screens. Meaning image X would be on the default screen, image Y on the next screen, and image Z on the third screen. SGS is an HDMI device...I think that is relevant. Anyone know of existing wallpapers which lend themselves to this type of setup?

edit: I'm using ADW Launcher. I'm also guessing that such wallpapers would need to be tailored to the number of screens, as swiping the screen moves the wallpaper a different amount depending on how many screens... but I don't have a specification on how much that amount is. Ideally I could get a wallpaper which would display a different image accross 3 - 4 screens.

Just wanted to confirm that the root method work for the Sprint version I have. Also -- has anyone been able to get the browser to perform better? Dolphin HD runs smoother, but I really like the stock browser on this thing. I've disabled Flash, set it to ondemand, etc, but it still lags like hell when there's a bigger/larger page.

Videos look awesome on this thing. 720P looks nothing short of amazing! Also -- does anyone have a list of safe apps to remove? I noticed the tab has a lot more .apks in /system than my Epic does.

I was overjoyed to see that Froyo JPO camera records in MP4 rather than in old cruddy 3GP.

And, oh the disappointment when i tried to use allshare (and twonky mobile) to play the recorded MP4s back (720p)... Its unplayable on PS3...

GAH...

Is there a way to fix the CAMERA to record standard MP4s ? I know my PS3 plays MP4s - i've tried that. But for some reason not Galaxy S generated content...

Galaxy S I9000, unbranded official froyo JPO.

Any ideas ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ickyboo:
I think the MP4 in Froyo is a rewrapped 3GP file. That could be the reason why it can't be replayed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] killercownz:
ickyboo hit nail on the head though cant confirm whether Samsung use GP3 coding inside MP4 or not.

You have two chocies - wait for some clever person to hack our camera software and preferably put in h.264 coding within MP4 which would work on PS3, or wait for Sony to support our unknown format (unlikely).

If you have WMP11/Win7, that could work (playing to wmp and then and dlna/upnp it to your PS3 from pc), or do what i do, and use allshare through XBMC which works like a dream. Tversity might be another option but dont believe they support android yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sliex:
Well, it plays on my pc, i can transcode it, sure, but it kinda defeats the purpose of allshare'ed or twonky'ed galaxy s as a media server.

I hope to stream from my phone directly to PS3.

I consider PS3 to be an adequate media player for my needs (if not for the lack of MKV support), but this whole MP4 malarkey is out of hand. Samsung screws up once again...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] damirbusic:
Can you post some mp4 movies so we can see how much is it better than 3gp on Eclair ?

Format settings, GOP : M=1, N=30

I just acquired an unlocked AT&T Captivate.

When I put my Bell Canada sim in I can not see/register/connect to the the Bell Network.

If I put my wife's Roger's sim it connects right away and when I enter the Rogers APN info it connects fine to the 3G network.

With the Bell sim in there I cannot even get to the menu for automatically or manually selecting the network as the meni option is grayed out/unselectable.

Any ideas? Are there other Bell Captivate users out there?

edit: with the Rogers sim in there and if I manually search for a network it list Rogers and a 302610 network which suspect is the Bell network as the MCC is 302 and MNC 610 for Bell
[Captivate General] Yuna:

is the sim itself ok?
[Captivate General] ProBoner:
My cap runs fine on bell... I have the network selection part greyed out too but it picks up signal as soon as the sim is in place
[Captivate General] WinoOutWest:
I am assuming the SIM is fine. It works in an unlocked Telus Hero and an unlocked Rogers Magic. What video would be helpful? Of the settings screen or the no signal icon in my notification bar?

I get no errors or warnings with my Bell sim in there. It just won't find the network.

(and thanks for confirming that there is at least one other cap working on Bell)

My plan is to get Froyo on here anyway. Is changing the ROM or Kernal likely to impact this issue at all?
[Captivate General] Yuna:
which band does bell use? which modem you use? (euro or us?)
[Captivate General] WinoOutWest:
Bell uses 850 & 1900 - my understanding is that they are same as the Rogers frequencies.

I am assuming I am using a US modem. How do I check the modem? The phone is an AT&T phone that did arrive in my hands rooted and unlocked already so I suppose something else could have been done to it.

thanks in advance
[G2 and Desire Z General] mejorguille:
put all your pictures in a special folder and drop a ".nomedia" file on there. It will stop android from scanning that folder for media. For example, you could have your "private" pictres in a folder called "books", or something else that's boring, add a .nomedia file, and add your pictures. You won't see them with gallery, but you will with a file explorer.
