I wouldn't say that too loud, they might be watching... Samsung Automated Turrets coming soon to your area...
[Captivate General] netnerd:
that is scary! if you think the gps in galaxy S is bad. i wonder what can go wrong with this samsung Turrets (another samsung gabage! i will continue to bash samsung until they able to fix the gps!)
[Captivate General] fatttire:
I know this is wishful thinking but I really hope that there is some level of hardware compatibility similar to the i9000 and the i897.

I mean, who knows, maybe the gps chip will be the same and we could yank the drivers... and then there's gingerbread... oh man. i seriously can't wait until this comes out and someone takes it apart.

looks pretty sexy to me. but also looks very iphone-esque/fake.

and also has too large of a screen imo.

what do you guys think?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] willsnews:
Looks kinda like the I9000

Still flashing
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lqaddict:
Are tehy seriously copying iPhone4 now???
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Segnaro:
lol. Oh cmon Samsung. Now it looks exactly like a damn iPhone.

But 4.3" SAMOLED is pretty damn sexy.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nearblack:
yeah it's almost unbelievable.

I wonder when they will understand that their target market wants anything BUT an iphone.

Probably as good as the retina or better.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vamp6x6x6x:
This is a phone I will deff not be getting...unless of course they go all the way and it has a breand new OS that is the best of both Android OS and iOS

I wash I could find a rom or app like that but i cant so I dream of the impossible.

I think Miui rom is like that, but not on Galaxy S yet.

why don't u stfu. Are you guys really retarded? This doesn't look anything like an iphone.. wow.. the stupidity of these guys blow my mind
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nearblack:
you don't see any similarity (UI wise) to the iphone? really?

good thing we have XDA though, so we can make rid of it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Oletros:
You must be blind

And looking at the pics, at least they could align the screen with the body of the phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seltaeb:
Me too. It even says 4.3" in one place and 4.5" in another.

/however, they'll probably come out with something like this eventually

[Galaxy S I9000 General] GadgetCheck:
The only thing i wold ask samsung to do is

Give the phone a solid build (some metal in it rather than just plastic)

A GOOD GPS

No touchwiz plz

And a good file system unlike the lagy i9000..

A high resolution sAmoled display

Better battery life

Decent flash

Update: forgot to mention about a universal Android updating system so that we dont have to wate for the vaious updates like v r still wating for froyo :mad:

If they get all this right then the phone will b selling like hot cakes

1) plastic rocks. it's light it's strong its thin. Love the SGS weight or the lack thereof more than anything. Mine already got the drop test (unintentional) and a rather harsh one, no damage :) (ok these things are a bit luck based but hey, it's still strong)

2) hell yea

3) if it's a nexus it'll be bare android and Google makes the choices

4) see 3)

5) Doesn't really matter to me, with sharpness fix from the dev section the current SAMOLED is pretty damn good to me on small fonts - but hey why not.

6) more battery is always better x)

7) i'd rather have a better camera than flash (but i guess they'll include flash). Something close to the N8 would be wonderful.

ps: pics of this one are most likely photoshop. there's a "nexus s" that looks like a SGS with a flash on various sites that look more legitimate.

[Android Software Development] khaled.h:
hello every body

i want to know how to install the software that for U.S or other counteries that have market , coz the middle east version of andriod dosn't have the market so you most reinstall the andriod but as any conutry taht support market

so can any one help me to fix this proplem ? and thx soo much

i have Xperia X8 :)
[Android Software Development] elvenhearts:
hello khaled ~ i live in middle east [Dubai] and my sony ericsson X10i which was bght in Dubai also did not have Market application installed ~ Now the Problem is Etisalat and Google have a really bad communication inbetween them .

In Middle East as many of the people know ,The "Muslim Society" prohibits a whole lot of things and consider them as " unfit" and "insecure"

While Google Market is not a Big Problem ~ it is a very secure User-Google relationship i think and "Etisalat" [telecom provider ] wants a hand in almost everything they can ~ [I frankly dont understand why they need to monitor every single thing under their network ~ retards!!]

just think of this as something similiar to the "Black berry " issue

while we who live in dubai may get an update in future to install market and make it legal ,for now we dont have any official information from etisalat about this issue .....

while at the same time others around me who use other android mobiles say me that their mobile has market in it ~ iam sure many dont have it .....

SOLUTIONS:

their are various solutions for this problem

1.Their is a substitute for Market an application known as " Swype " or also known as " sam" ~ now this application provides various apps that are in market ~ while its database is very small compared to that of the Market

2. Download Android Apps directly from official websites

3. Download Android Apps from Torrents and install it [for how to install if any one had problems ~ message me i can give a small tip :) )

4. The final and the most effective method is "Flashing" ., you can flash you mobile's firmware to an another countrie's firmware ~ which supports Market ~

while you wont be able to access paid applications in market ~ you will be able to access a huge load of Free apps!!!!!

for flashing since i dont know what android phone you are using ~ all i can say is " google " " flash [your phone] with U.S. firmware " lol

or you can just browse XDA forums for it ~

hoping that my post helped you or others atleast a little :)
[Android Software Development] khaled.h:
yeaaaaaaah you are really all right :D

thanQ mr for ur help

and i mean that is flash [your phone] with U.S. firmware

FLASH

i downloaded le U.S firmware yeaterday

and nw i want the way to flash my phone

thanQ angin :)
[Android Software Development] johnston9234:
what are you talking about? swype is a keyboard used on Android phones and Sam is a app store for SAMSUNG phones. Torrents can lead to viruses. And firmware is nowhere close to the same thing as apps. Flashing is for custom roms and themes and i dont suggest flashing firmware that is not made for your phone because your phone WILL get bricked (unusable)
[Android Software Development] Dbagjones:
Since when is SAM for Samsung phones specifically? It stands for SlideME Application Manager - it contains apps for the Android OS. It's just a Market alternative.

And as far as saying that flashing anything other than stock firmware WILL brick your phone isn't entirely true (you can't just say it carte blanche(sp?)). Granted, be very careful when flashing anything to your phone. Just do your homework. There are plenty of people that have successfully used firmware from a similar phone (with tweaks obviously). In this regard, try to find others in your situation. Someone else may have already solved the problem for you. Just wanted to clear this up. Good luck with your research and one last bit of advice about flashing - if you have any doubts, don't do it.
[Android Software Development] khaled.h:
thanQ you alot

well i nw updating my phone as usa by SEUS , when the update be installed in my phonei will find the market :)

i solve it :) i changed the nummber in Defult.pro by root exeplorar to other countery so i download software that have market
[Streak 5 Android Development] Krisbo:
Hi guys,

Has anyone worked out if you can change the boot image yet? I'm running the leaked 2.1 on an AT&T Streak but I'm not the biggest fan of the big O2 picture when I turn my phone on.

Thanks,

I have a Telstra HTC Desire (soon to be sent to the USA, but I have it for now). Is there an easy way to extract the boot image from it and copy it to the Streak?
[Streak 5 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
i just deleted mine so i get the default android splash. i think the one from the att 1.6 rom was nicer looking but i dunno where to find that.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Krisbo:
I found the file using Astro but I can't delete it. How did you manage to delete it?
[Streak 5 Android Development] The Jack of Clubs:
you need root for one. and astro wont write to root protected folders. you can use root explorer in place of astro, but it costs money and i though its easier than my method, its also more expensive. i downloaded mount /system (rw / ro) and android terminal emulator from the market. mounted the system folder as rw. opened terminal and ran "su" for root shell, then did "rm -f /system/media/bootanimation.zip". then if you want to put in your own boot animation, you should be able to do "cp /sdcard/locationof/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip".
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
I bought "absolute system" from the market and its the only root tool so far that i have found that works. Ive changed the boot logo and font so far... just a few clicks and its done :)

hi all,

just a noob here on android.. i was on iphone b4.. but still have new ipod touch Which is the best then android crappy apps!..

anyhow i wanted to know is there a way we can get 2.2 on x10i so we can have multi touch on the dam phone! b/c SE will take another 1 year to release this...

anyhow which hd games u ppl use for your xperia?

Also did ya ppl note that any games that made for iOS and then made for android this quality sucks as hell like game "UNO" its quality is horrible. compare to Iphone version. android need to get more DEVs to make hi quality games!

all i have seen so far are crap quality.. in which i think android was a bad choice for me! b/c app market's apps are low in quality except few apps i currently have.
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
Where do I begin?

It doesn't matter, since this thread will be locked soon. No one cares about your iPod or iPhone on here. If you want games, get a game console, not a cell phone.

Also, Android 2.2 isn't going to magically make multitouch appear if the hardware doesn't support it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
Help! I just rooted my new Desire with the unrevoked method. Then I installed Rom Manager, saved its recovery mode and backed up my ROM. Everything seemed to go well enough, but now my Desire is stuck endlessly rebooting to the HTC Screen.

I can access the Clockmod Recovery screen however. I've tried the system reboot option but that just gets me the Htc screen rebooting again and again.

I'm pretty much a newbie to this and didn't want to choose another option (wipe data/factory reset, restore saved rom) without checking it out as I don't want to brick my new Desire.

Could someone give me a step by step plan for recovering my Desire?

Many thanks,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neethi_raj:
Nice thing you have a nandroid backup. Just restore the backup. it should work.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpreet3579:
You have to wipe all the data and just flash a new Rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
stuck on htc screen after using rom manager

Thanks for this. A couple of other newbie questions. As I understand it, I wipe the data using the Recovery option, and I found the how to flash a rom instructions. If I want a stock rom (like the one that came with the Orange Desire here in the UK) where would I get that? And do you think it might work if I restored the first backup I made, or do you think that's faulty...

Thanks again,

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
stuck on htc screen after using rom manager

Things went from bad to worse. My battery seemed to stop charging so I wasn't able to get back to the recovery screen, and when I plugged the desire into the computer via the usb cable I simply got a flickering htc screen. I've had to send it back to Orange.

This experience has certainly made me leary of rooting and using rom manager again!

Does anybody have any explanation of what went wrong?

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaymondErasmus:
When the phone gets stuck in that loop when its trying to boot it wont charge, im not sure why.

The same thing happend to me using Rom manager. (maybe its a bug with the new version, or maybe we just didnt use it right)

I managed to get my phone to charge by taking out the battery and putting it back in ... so the phone was off, put it into the charger until it was fully charged and then did the recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
Battery affected by rom manager?

There's an addendum to this story. I replaced my Desire but had the same problem again, which seemed to be down to the battery in the end. Is it possible that the (virtually new) battery was affected by either rooting or rom manager backing up the rom? It seems very weird!

Joe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
This might work for you:D

Remember to power down your Desire totally and charge it for about 2 hours or so (just to be safe) and continue.

WAIT, BEFORE YOU START, CREATE A GOLDCARD. IT IS VERY NECESSARY. THINGS WILL GO WRONG IF YOU DONT.

EDIT: YOU MUST BE ABLE TO BOOT GO TO THE BOOTLOADER MENU.

Firstly, download this file. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13240777/Desire Downgrade.ZIP

Extract the files.

Run the win-down.bat file.

Follow on screen instructions.

After the process is completed, Head to the root of your SD card and check if there is a file named P99***IMG (FORGOT THE EXACT NAME BUT IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS) there should be one.

Secondly, disconnect your phone and turn it off.

After that boot up your phone while pressing the volume down button and the power button.

The bootloader should be checking for files after awhile and once it found the file that is supposed to be in the root of your sd card, press the volume up button (NOT EXACTLY SURE, SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT SAYS YES AND CONTINUE)

It should be writing files to your phone. and replaces everything. E.G: HBOOT, RECOVERY,RADIO and such.

It should be writing files successfully and then it would ask you to reboot. Continue with the reboot and you should be having your Desire back to stock. Perfect.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE ARE RISKS INVOLVED LIKE FAILURE OF WRITING TO THE HBOOT. PLEASE REMEMBER TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. MAINLY, DO NOT BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG.

FINALLY, YOU SHOULD BE READING EVERYTHING UP TO HERE AND THAT YOU MUST HAVE A GOLDCARD (A GOLD SD CARD)

Hope this helps you and please ask if you have further questions. PM me if the questions cannot be answered here. Good Luck:D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
Ta

Thanks for the long reply. Sadly, I'm unable to test it out as I had to return my phone to Orange. I'm still rather mystified by what happened in the end (how could rooting affect a battery?) but I'll keep your reply on hand in case it happens next time I root.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] iceman3kco:
So I have been trying all night to flash my buddy's MyTouch 3g to Cyanogenmod 6 and have run into several issues.

1. Created golddisk and updated the bootloader

2. Flashed radio (fastboot)

3. Flashed hboot (fastboot)

4. Flashed Clockwork recovery (fastboot)

I have been able to access Clockwork and install CM 6, and google apps. After all of this, the splash sreen hangs and never loads the ROM. For some reason, I decided to update the radio again to the radio img I downloaded from Cyanogen. After radio flash the hanging splash screen happens again. So I remove the battery and try to enter the bootloader (vol down+power) and it goes staight to the splash screen. Tried to enter recovery rom, same thing. The only thing that works is trackball+power to get the blue LED. HELP!!! I would prefer not to buy him another phone. (THIS WOULD BE THE THIRD PHONE I HAVE LOADED WITH CM6. NEXUS ONE, SPRINT HERO CDMA BEING THE OTHER TWO.)
