That works flawlesly. It used to take me several tries to hit dl or recovery mode, after flashing that fix, I can boot to either with so little effort its ridiculous.

^ awesome man.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
If you've gotten the ji6 update, or any ji6 based ROM you should not have any recovery issues. I was HWL on my new vibrant but once the ji6 update came I gained recovery access by holding down the volume keys.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
^ I assume you got the ota then?

Those who did odin, kies, etc still have the issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
ah, i didn't know it had to be the OTA. Yes I did receive the official OTA.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gioffon:
This has ji6 mini kies update, and still can't boot into recovery or download mode
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Did you even read my post and follow the link?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gioffon:
Yes thanks for the link ! im downloading the files right now and ill try it (*fear*)

Btw, for example if i have installed XXX ROM, and i want to back the phone completly to STOCK (to get mini kies update for example) its that possible ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gioffon:
Confirmed, this is the safest and fastest method !!! Thanks once again

I've been flashing/ building/hacking roms for the last 2 weeks straight and I mean constantly, eat, sleep (rarely), program, and repeat. So me and my girlfriend (imagine that a nerd with a gf) are laying in bed and I go to hold her hand and this thought crossed my mind "if our hands don't connect right then I can't transfer my nandroid backup" I need apaa (android programming addict anonymous.

What fone u have ? Chances are if its a ****ty fone , ie < 1ghz ull never will be happy with it cuz its garbage to begin with ... cooked roms can only polish a turd ya kno ... so stop wasting ur time ull regret it

Phones less than 1Ghz are not ****ty. Look at the Desire Z 800Mhz and faster than pretty much any other phone, and thats even w/o overclocking it.

ha its an incredible (currently 1.15ghz), im in a love hate type of thing with sense, i dont like how slow sense is and i love how smooth asop (currently cyanogen) is but asop will not load xda-developers home page. just installed a nightly build (144) last night and it will load the forum so i think im sticking with it... till i make my own build, which is kinda why ive been flashing roms
[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
Do what i do :D

I only like the bottom bit of sense not the rest of it so I use a nice speedy AOSP rom then use this modded ADW launcher, with the extra themes, IMO Mochilla brown is Lush :p :)
[Off-topic] akawings:
I would but its not the launcher that gives me problems, its the actual web browser that gives me problems (browser.apk). If I could get the sense webkit On aosp, all would be well.

Which is the best software to record all calls automatically on the the external memory card in a Samsung Galaxy S?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sergmarin:
There's still not possibility to record calls on SGS...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] cldwar:
search the android market you will find a decent application there .. .

I'm using call recorder - it gets the job done, but no serious application for this purpose available - the sound quality of the receiving end is not so good.

() Run the audio file from the file manager not directly from the application (it will give you an error)
[Droid Incredible General] daftlush:
Has anyone tried the "remove boot animation" feature?

Does your incoming call screen look strange?

Ultimate Droid ROM has been removed from the forums here...

requiring someone to register on your web page to download your rom is a big no no. So is including Swype.

You would probably get a better answer using his forums since hes kinda frowned upon around here... and thats where he provides support.

yes the incoming calls screen looks weird. just a green and red dot that doesn't show whether to press it or drag it, but you drag it.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] excessnet:
I didn't find anything about that, but it seems that I have a problem with Menu and back button... mainly the back button.

Normaly, when a I press menu or back button, both illuminate. Since today, sometime, only the menu or back button illuminate. The one that does not illuminate is not working.

I tried to press everywhere on the phone, shake it, removing sim, rebooting, etc... didnt find what cause that. Could be hardware or software (I have stock rom).

Anyone have seen this?

Thanks !
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] excessnet:
well... playing a bit with it today. I hold it flat in my hand, turning left or right... light were blinking on menu or back button... sound like hardware problems :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adinis78:
This is my second time trying to restore a backup using clockwork and it just hangs on the vibrant screen. The first time I forgot to disable voodoo so that was the problem then, but this time I was on obsidian froyo rom and had issues where I was not able to get any data reception (3g/edge) so I figured to try and got back to stock to see if that solved the issue but no I'm stuck on vibrant screen. It went through the process of restoring then rebooting but it got suck. I am very frustrated because I can't never get it to work so what is the point of backing up stuff. I will be using odin again to restore and not use backups anymore. Just wanted to vent as I am very frustrated about this. If there is some out there that could shed some light as to why I keep getting stuck on the vibrant screen I would appreciate it.

Will be getting a replacement phone from my date issue, and yes my voice still works just not data part.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Froyo has a differnt kernel than eclair. You were trying to restore an eclair build, but you did not flash the stock eclair kernel first.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adinis78:
what eclair kernel can i use for the future???

i odin back to JFD and my 3g/edge is working again i wonder why i lost it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Probably the easiest thing to do would have been to flash a new custom rom with the kernel included, like Fusion/Bionix.

You could have flashed the stock kernel and then restored a JI6 nandroid too though I imagine. I've not tried yet. The stock kernel can be found in my signature or in the development section. I have a copy on my internal memory just in case.

[Omnia 7 General] Cruzer1:
Just wondering does anyone experience the problem of recording a video on the Omnia 7, yet no sound is recorded during playback?

I've noticed this heaps of times where apps which require the mic (Shazam, bing voice search, and as mentioned recording a video) does not pic up any sound. The only way to remedy this problem is by dialling a contact and ending it right away before it alerts them. This kind of activates the mic of the phone. Anyone experiencing this?
[Omnia 7 General] skycamefalling:
No, sound is good with my Omnia. Video recording, apps that require the mic...no problem at all.
[Omnia 7 General] Cruzer1:
Thanks. Weird how mine sometimes dont work. Was recording a video, and when I played it back it had no sound... It seems fine now though, but I reckon it will come back eventually ><
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
I installed the froyo beta, and ever since then, my phone won't auto rotate anymore. Ive already ODINed back to stock, it still wont work :( Any ideas or help?

-Edit-

I downloaded Accelerometer Test to make sure that the accelerometer wasn't busted. It's working fine. The phone just will not rotate.
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Only two things I can think of:

1: Go to settings > Sound and Display > Make sure Orientation is checked.

2: (If using Launcher Pro). Menu button while on homescreen > Preferences > Behavior Settings > make sure Enable Auto-rotation is checked.

Other than that, no idea :\
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
Its on, and i even toggled it. And no launcher pro. Just flashed stock :(
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
On stock, the homescreens wont rotate unless the keyboard is slid out.

Is it rotating on the browser and on pictures?
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
No. And if i slide the keyboard out, it rotates. But then it gets stuck in landscape unless i go to something that forces portrait mode, such as the home screen.
[Epic 4G General] SemiGamer:
Ah if its even getting stuck in landscape mode than its got to be something framework or .apk related.

Beats me, sorry man :\ Hope someone is able to help you more so than I could.
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
Im downloading a new copy of the DI18 for ODIN, hope it helps. Thanks anyway. If not i guess its time for my first replacement ever.

"Originally Posted by tmspyder

I was able to recalibrate my g sensors as follows ..

This worked for me but I'll take no responsibility if it mucks something else up

1. Download a terminal app from the market

2. Enter one line at a time.

su

/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha

3. Follow the onscreen directions, while making sure you device is flat.

pay attention to the bump at bottom on back.

I hung said bump off the edge of table

I preformed this AFTER flashing to stock and then flashing my former ROM.

So it was not done in 2.2"

THANK YOU! I had the same problem and this fixed it. Of course, i had to root my shizzle again. By chance did anyone with this problem run the Froyo 2.2 built-in calibration before this came about?
[Epic 4G General] jonnybsay:
Oh wow, thank you so much!! The fix using the terminal emulator totally worked for me too, I thought I was going to have to go back to stock to see if it would fix itself! After running the lines in the terminal, it still wouldn't automatically detect orientation, so went to the display settings, unchecked orientation, and checked it again, and now works perfectly! The lack of orientation was so frustrating, especially after using the keyboard and the only way to fix it was turning off the screen... thanks again!
[Epic 4G General] deano0714:
Does this increase the speed of rotating in froyo beta cuz i noticed the rotating is really slow
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
This helped for me. I was having the slow rotation problem as well. This fixed it. I didn't see results right away though. Took a few minutes and a restart to work
[Epic 4G General] ogrillion:
Just wanted to bump this. I had issues with auto rotation broken after going to DK28 and downgrading back to DI18.

I didn't test if it fixed it or not, however it did remove the annoying lag on DK28 when the screen rotates. Only reason I was downgrading
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
What terminal app did you use?

It says "su" is not found
[Epic 4G General] ogrillion:
Terminal emulator is what I used. It definitely rotates much faster. Only a little slower then i18. However it didn't take effect till I went into settings display, uncheck auto rotate, back, go back in and recheck it.
[Epic 4G General] spyderfry:
This^^

Only difference for me is I've had to reboot my phone for the auto rotate to come back after entering the lines in terminal.
[Epic 4G General] b3nny:
I'm using the terminal emulator also but I also get the same error.
[Epic 4G General] rickbuck:
Worked perfectly. Froyo just got better.. Thanks to tmspyder, as well.
[Epic 4G General] nubecoder:
Thanks for the info.. I too was experiencing orientation lag, this fixed it right up!

PS - people mentioning a "su not found" error... seems like you might not have su installed (super user / root).

=]
[Epic 4G General] tmspyder:
^^ THIS

the line "su" is calling super user permissions.

Not sure if the particular terminal would make a difference really.
[Epic 4G General] x.data:
this thread kept me from going back to 2.1

Thanks all!
[Epic 4G General] ryno502:
I had the same problem after going back to DI07. I OTA'd to DI18 and that still didn't fixed it. I used one click root to achieve su and downloaded terminal emulator like this thread said, fixed it right up. I just had to uncheck orientation and recheck it again. My phone rotates almost instantly now.
[Epic 4G General] windyhawk:
you need to root your firmware to enable you to use that command
[Epic 4G General] gorby911:
Thanks for posting the solution!

Besides minding the camera bump on the back, I also suggest removing any snap-on back covers if you are using any since they may affect calibration as well. Worked like a charm for me, thank you.
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
Man you rock. Just odin'd back to DI18, rooted via one click root and did it. Easy as pie. Though, ironically, pie is actually rather difficult to make. Perhaps the phrase refers to how easy it is to eat pie. No matter. You all rock!
[Epic 4G General] windyhawk:
that means your firmware is unrooted. u need to root it first and then you can use "su" function
[Epic 4G General] leetut:
anyway to do this to the galaxy tab?

im stuck in portrait mode

/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha :not found ?
[Epic 4G General] sonjohn1:
Here's an easier way to calibrate the rotation of your phone. Go to the settings / display / horizontal calibration screen. Hold your phone out in front of you vertically and tap calibrate. Voila, it's done. Works every time for me.
[Epic 4G General] sonjohn1:
This apparently only works when my phone is on Bonsai4all 1.04. Sorry.

Ok so I flashed the latest Bionix Froyo rom onto my Vibrant and I don't really enjoy the hiccups found in the rom. I would like to go back to the Ji6 updateand wait for the official 2.2 update from Samsung. Can someone explain to me how i would do so?
[Vibrant General] Rodriguez92:
Odin back to stock JFD then update to JI6
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
In theory, you could flash Anderoid's AOSPish 1.4 which will bring your kernel back to 2.1 and then flash the stock J16 rom over that.
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
Would that work? That would be so much easier than using odin.
[Vibrant General] wildklymr:
Yeah, aospish has the kernel included, so it shouldn't give you any problems.
[Vibrant General] richiehd:
Just checking back to see how the flashing went. Everything turn out ok?
[Vibrant General] mikaeldalc:
Thanx for the feedback but will that really work? I have yo wait a couple days to do so because I'm not going to b around my computer during the weekend. Ill let u guys know how it goes on Monday.. if anyone has any other ideas, plaza let me know

Get Co-Pilot, best money ever spent. The map data gets stored on your SD card 1.1GB for North America. The best part is not it does not use wireless data to get maps. It has all the fancy voice options you want.... 4 in british i believe (I use one myself ;-))
