[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
FWIW, I don't think that its Samsungs fault that there is no Android Market in Middle-Eastern Tabs - it seems that this is the case for all Android devices (see here).

I know that's about as useful to you as a chocolate teapot, and I fully agree that there should be at least some obvious warning that there is no Market on the device.

Regards,

Dave

For those who can phone...

1. Voice recognition

What really is missing from my perspective is voice recognition since we need an ear phone to speak.

It makes no sense to have to take out the phone from the pocket to place a call.

We should be able to perform this from the ear phone.

2. Task manager

It makes me crazy no to be able to go to an application from the default task manager. We can only kill apps.

3. Google maps and Contact Manager should be integrated

4. Calendar tab should appear in Phone application and integrated with Contacts Manager.

Since I am using that device for professional purpose I am more interested in real life application than in Asphalt game.

No offense Dave, but I'm talking about US GSM phones and really don't want a lecture about what I should or should not be doing.

I am quite aware that UK/Euro phones are fully functional.

You can tell the nexus S is a samsung phone because its made of cheap plastic. But to bad the specs arent the same as Galaxy s Phones.....huge bummer to those who bought one and dont even have Froyo yet.

Nope, not a bummer. Polly want a cracker?

Awesome a noob!
[Fascinate General] BingoDanny:
bL33d i love how you call me a new noob but i can guarentee ive had more android phones than you.

All im saying is to have bought a Fascinate and to have sooo many quirky problems....like GPS and the slow to get 2.2 Froyo. Its disapointing when a phone with such great hardware has to wait for a os update. And now gets KO'd by a dev phone which sets the standard for the next year as the first nexus did.

Makes you admire how Apple runs there business. You know what your getting with them. With Android is Awesome hardware with hit or miss with updates to the OS. Samsung has had a bad reputation with OS updates!!!

This is really sherwood1 huh.?! Come on, don't lie.... ; )

Also, please learn to spell before posting. Its really hard to take you seriously when you spell like a 4th grader. I personally think your a bit insecure too but that's just me.

Just my 2nd cents.
[Fascinate General] BingoDanny:
huh?

Spelling does suck :)
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
If the hardware is the same or very similar to that of the Fascinate and other SGS phones, wouldn't that mean that future updates would be easier to port? I'd think that would make the phone more desirable personally.

[Fascinate General] riggsandroid:
Just a hunch. The update to froyo is on hold because the galaxy series is going right to gingerbread. Didn't anyone ever think of that?

Froyo Powered HTC Hero
[Fascinate General] BingoDanny:
yeah that would be awesome if they had same hardware ....but i doubt it. Look at the phone. The camera is very different, speakerphone is in a completely different spot, and the 4 buttons across the bottom are in a different order.

But I soooooo hope its the same!!!!!
[Fascinate General] Redwing:
Danny, if I hadn't seen your other posts I'd have thought this one was a troll aimed at people who have no clue about phones.

Let me just danny this down for you. The things you just listed are roughly equivalent to saying:

"my blue honda civic runs on gas, your honda civic probably can't run on gas...because it's red"
[Fascinate General] BingoDanny:
Ummm i said The nexus 2 was spotted....looking different in many ways to the galaxy S. The Nexus sets the standard for ANDROID phones....does it not? Its a shame because we dont even have 2.2 yet....

But I hope im wrong...

Now if this doesnt make sense to you , its ok Just take my red honda out your As#

For some reason I always read your posts in Lewis Black's voice.

I mean this in a good way.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
The i-9000 is different from the Vibrant, Captivate, Epic, and Fascinate, yet things that work on one were able to be ported to the others. Voodoo lagfix, BLN, Voodoo color and I'm sure there are others changes that have been ported. Having hardware that is very similar in how it works is a great start. If the next Nexus device is based on the SGS lineup, it should make it easier down the road for development.

[Fascinate General] kamunist:
false. BGR confirmed the Galaxy 2 will be dual core. they SPECULATED that it MIGHT be their own version of the Nexus S, a la Nexus One/Desire. can't spell, can't read, you're doing pretty well for yourself.

[HD2 General] Birgette:
Sorry if this has been asked before but I have read through these forums for two days and still haven't found any clear answers anywhere. I just installed the mdeejay revolution 1.6 froyo to get android on my phone. This is the only thing I have ever done on my phone aka I have stock rom/radio and whatever else. But my battery drain is very high and I am guessing it has to do with rom/radio/kernel.... but have no idea what exactly. Can someone please give me a clear answer to what exactly affects my battery life? I mean will changing to a different rom/radio/kernel affect my battery life at all? Also, is there a way to make sure the rom/radio/kernel is compatible with the mdeejay revoluation 1.6 froyo without reading through hundreds of forums threads... which I have already done.

BTW I live in the Seattle area using a tmobile hd2 if that helps. Thanks a lot. No flaming will be appreciated!
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
All builds of Android run differently, some are better on battery then others. It's really luck of the draw, read the threads of each build carefully and see what others say. There is no best ROM/radio/build setup, just the one that works best for you.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lil-devil:
Hey everyone,

i'm not sure if i might be missing anything or what not but the few roms i flashed onto my phone (biff mod/AOSP 2.2/CM6) none of these roms allows me to view any pictures from the gallery. when i open a picture it just gives me a black screen with the menus. does anyone know how i can fix this?

Thanks :)

[Optimus 7 General] Vertoso:
I've had the Optimus 7 since friday from vodafone UK but noticed some issues and trying to establish if they are common or perhaps a faulty handset before my 7 day trial period runs out.

I have had issues connecting to secure networks and after some testing with various routers it would appear I can't connect to WPA2 secured networks at all. WPA seems to work but occasionaly after screen lock or power on/off it fails and after manually forcing the connection I keep getting prompted for the password again and again.

Bluetooth was buggy at the beginning but has completely stopped working now and I am unable to detect any devices. Previously I could detect devices but not connect and pair.

I've tried a hard reset twice but to no avail.

Firmware 1.0.7.10

ROM Version LG-E900_V10g_Final-SEP-29-2010-2250-7004

Factory Version LG-E900AT-01-V10g-234-15-SEP-29-2010

I got the last 2 versions from the MFG app which I tried as a last resort to see if there are any diagnostics that would help me but without guidance I'm loathed to touch anything.

Apart from the 2 issues I'm loving the phone and impressed by WP7
[Optimus 7 General] xdapants:
I have the 900h (north america) and dont have any issues with connecting to wpa2
[Optimus 7 General] Commander Data:
Interesting problem. I had heard there were problems connecting to hidden wifi networks, but nothing like this. I too have the North American (TELUS) 900h and do not have this problem.

Our phones here are running OS version 7.0.7004.0. Firmware version 1.0.2.14. This could be a Euro only thing, but we would need some more people to corroborate this.
[Optimus 7 General] Vertoso:
Thanks Guys, I've logged this with LG Support and Vodafone, and I am waiting for their response. Given the bluetooth has packed up completely I get the feeling this is an issue with my device, what I didnt realise was the US devices were a different model (900h) so there still may be an issue with the european handsets.
[Optimus 7 General] KashmaNiaC:
In the same boat

I haven't tried WPA2 yet however I'm also suffering Bluetooth issues. I have an LG Optimus 7 bought from Optus (Australia) and cannot get it to pair with any of my A2DP devices.

A quick email I sent to LG Aus & NZ garnered a "this query is too complicated to resolve via email" reply; I'll have to call them up when I can set aside enough time to deal with being put on hold.

Let me know how you go - my biggest concern is that this bug only exists in a particular batch, meaning that I'll have to get a replacement before it turns into a drawn out "Warranty issue" procedure.
[Optimus 7 General] Vertoso:
Replacement Device on the way

I'm getting a replacement handset tomorrow, so I'll see if its fixed. Vodafone aren't aware of any issues (or they are not telling me anyway) but as I am in my 7 day cooling off period they will swap out the handset and extend me another 7 days to evaluate the device. I'm not sure how keen they would be to replace the handset if I was out of the 7 day period.

LG Helpdesk sent me an email saying the issue has been esculated to the relevant representatives but I havent heard anything since.
[Optimus 7 General] sp1der:
also in Italy there are a smartphones with the same issue!!!
[Optimus 7 General] Vertoso:
Bluetooth fixed WPA2 still a bug

Just got my replacement handset, bluetooth is currently working. Its paired first time with my laptop and my car (Audi A3 car prep) which I was worried wasn't compatible but it seems to be working great so far.

However WPA2 encrypted WIFI is definitely

not

working, tried it on my home router and another WPA2 router at a neighbours. WPA does seem to work at the moment.

Firmware is still the same 1.0.7.10 so it looks like the bluetooth was a faulty device.
[Optimus 7 General] xdapants:
wpa2 on some older routers tends to suck, Ive had issues connecting to older dlinks and linksys routers (with numerous devices) .. switching to wpa or wpa2-auto on them allows a connection ... id try a more recent wpa2 enabled wireless router/access point if possible
[Optimus 7 General] A Dustman:
I can't seem to connect to my wpa2 encrypted wifi network any more, worked fine before. I'll be going to exchange it tonight, and I'll let you guys know if that fixes the problem.
[Optimus 7 General] A Dustman:
Got my exchange unit last night, and everything is working fine now
[Optimus 7 General] CyK1:
Is there an actual difference between the north american version (e900h) and the one they sell in europe? They both work on the same frequencies right?
[Optimus 7 General] gurucanto:
I got my LG Optimus 7 when it was initially launched in Singapore. By the next day i was returning it back from the roadshow that i got it from as the Wifi and Bluetooth was not working. They gave me a replacement set.

When i checked it was working. As i hardly used the Bluetooth, 3 days later, i tried and found it was not working. I went back to the Telco i bought it from and they were not willing to replace the phone as i had it replaced once.

I called up the customer service and they were of no help. I was finally told to go to an LG Service Center. Trust me, i was super pissed with the Telco after my multiple calls and the service support i got from the Telco shop i went to, to get it replaced. The phone was only 4 days old. And they were more concern about the number of sets they had with them.

Finally i went to LG. They were very supportive. They looked at the phone and tested it and say true enough the Bluetooth had a problem. Asked me to wait for 30 mins. It was a hardware problem. They changed the entire board supporting the bluetooth. After that it was working fine. Till now. Also i released the wifi was on the same board, as the Mac address was different.

Till today i have no idea what cause the problem.

First phone : Wifi and Bluetooth not working

Second phone; Bluetooth was not working after 3 days.

So i hope this experience would be useful to some who have similar problems.

Update: Thanks to one of the forumers who did a tear down of his phone. I believe this was the circuity that was changed on my mobile.
[Optimus 7 General] KashmaNiaC:
Bluetooth Degrades Over Time

I too received a replacement handset from my telco (Optus Australia), who have been, and still are entirely supportive.

I bought my first Optimus 7 fourteen days ago, and noticed that Bluetooth was sketchy a day after purchase. Of the half-dozen attempts I made at pairing with my Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) car headset I managed to get it paired once; however I could never get it to connect.

6 days later I handed it back to the store who sent it off for testing (technically considered a DOA unit) and sure enough the found that Bluetooth didn't work. They gave me a new (sealed) unit 4 days afterwards - I immediately checked that it paired with my car - which it did without any hiccups.

After putting some music on it later that day I tested Bluetooth again. It worked; kind of - there were distinct pauses and clicking sounds whilst streaming music. I Tested it with my laptop (A2DP again) and it made the same noises during playback. The phone's built-in speaker/headphone output played the songs flawlessly.

Tested it again the next day with the car - that time it didn't connect. I did a hard-reset and tried to pair it again; it recognised the car stereo but couldn't connect. The day after that it stopped recognising any Bluetooth devices during Bluetooth searches.

Today I handed the replacement handset back to the store to repeat the DOA procedure (3-4 days) and should be getting a second replacement then.

It seems to me that the chipset they use degrades over time (or usage), within the space of a day or so; so whilst they may be replacing the chipset and it appears to work, they actually break down fairly quickly - a very tedious fault indeed.

I wonder if LG are aware of the issue.

P.S: Never had issues with WiFi (WPA).
[Optimus 7 General] gurucanto:
Yes i suspect the chipset degraded. Question is how or why?

I am wondering if it had anything to do with heat. I did notice the previous 2 phones i had heated up quite easily especially during charging.

And also when i use the 3G network alot, the back of the phone is very warm. I have never experience this in all my other phones.

So was just wondering whether heat could have been a contributing factor.

I recieved my first phone on the 23 of Oct 10. Replaced it on the 24 Oct 10. 3 days later bluetooth failed to function and after all my negative encounter with the telco i finally got my phone serviced at the LG center on the 13 of Nov. So far it is working well and enjoying the experience. Of cos cant wait for any WP7 OS updates to plug in the deficencies that are present today :D
[Optimus 7 General] kapanak:
Suprisingly enough, I can connect to WPA2 networks, if I set it to AES, but I really have not had much of an issue with secured networks. However, some citywide UNSECURED networks in Vancouver are impossible to connect to, while even an iPod Touch can connect to it.

The bluetooth issues are horrific. Most devices are recognized, but not "compatible". I tried to move my contacts from my feature phone, and no such luck. No file transfers obviously, and headsets have a tough time connecting or KEEPING the connection. A problem here in Vancouver, where talking on your cellphone while driving is illegal, and your bluetooth headset looses connection every once in a while.
[Optimus 7 General] gurucanto:
Yup i agree. Only when i had to go to LG Service center to fix the bluetooth problem, was i then told that the bluetooth could only be used for audio purposes only. You cant transfer files etc with it.

This is ridiculous. But wouldnt this be an OS limitation rather then a hardware issues. As such, we could possibly see an upgrade allowing us to transfer files etc.

Also you cant event hide your ID or change your bluetooth ID. Or am i mistaken?
[Optimus 7 General] calanbalan:
I can pair my phone to my pc (havent tried doing anything just checking if it worked) but cannot pair it with my functioning bluetooth headset (which work great on my HTC Desire). The headset isnt showing up at all when scanning for devices for some reason.
[Optimus 7 General] Sledgeman:
I can pair it with my stereo BT-headset but not with my pc. When listening to music thru the BT-headset i hear noise of some sort. Sounds like interference noise. And the sound disappears for a second every now and then. I have used the headset with two other phones and it sounds really good with them. I'm starting to think there's something wrong with this phone.

Connecting to wpa2 network works fine for me.
[Optimus 7 General] calanbalan:
Connecting to wpa2 works fine for me too. The headset Im using is Plantronics Voyager 520 (can't even find while scanning). Gonna check a SE headset when it's charged in an hour or so.
[Optimus 7 General] mocax:
same problem here, wpa2 and bluetooth.

will LG do a recall of this product?
[Optimus 7 General] Yakkaimono:
I have the german E900 and have no problems with wifi so far. I didn't use bluetooth yet since I don't use bt headsets.
[Optimus 7 General] ChristianWickham:
I have an E900 purchased in Australia from Optus. I bought it outright so I have no contract with Optus so no support from them.

My device found both my Laptop and my Bluetooth headset on the first day, and they both failed to complete the pairing, and now the LG E900 cannot find any bluetooth devices at all.

It seems from this forum that it is a hardware failure affecting many people, but I wanted to wait until after the the WP7 NoDo update and the big update later this year to see if anything in software fixed it.

Do people here think I should return it to LG? Or will the WP7 software update help?
[Optimus 7 General] tejazz:
Got the LG E900 from Singapore, tried connecting with two different bluetooth headsets, one laptop and many phones but my phone wasn't able to discover any of those devices. Since I'm in India now and the phone isn't even launched here, I can't take it to an LG service centre to get the bluetooth issue fixed.

This really sucks but I guess I can live without using a bluetooth device. Meh, what else can I do?
[Optimus 7 General] albert_betet:
finally I found the problem

its because my handsfree not compatible,try it on my trophy and it can't detect the handsfree

maybe wp7 very selective about the bluetooth...
[Optimus 7 General] ChristianWickham:
I sent my LG E900 off to LG. They didn't fix it, they replaced the mainboard. This meant that I got the same (scratched) case back, but with a new IMEI and therefore a new phone. This meant that it was detected as new by Zune and I had to manually re-install and configure all apps, and I lost all my app data.

But, Bluetooth works and it connects to everything fine now.

Interestingly, WiFi is also faster and connects to APs quicker. Maybe the failed BlueTooth transmitter also affected WiFi...

EDIT: Fixed. Please close thread, or let die.

I've tried searching threads. In fact I've read dozens, but I can't seem to find a solution to my problem.

Every time I boot it goes into recovery. If I'm in recovery and I try to reboot, it goes right back. If I restore nandroid and reboot: same deal. Install a rom: recovery. Download mode? just does recovery. "adb reboot download" restarts it, but the device stays in recovery, etc.

It's driving me nuts, and I can't think of anything to do. I've tried formatting just about every possible option from clockwork.

I've tried using ODIN to restore it. Every time I start Odin it very quickly gets to "<ID:0/007> SetupConnection.." and gets stuck there. It won't budge.

Anyone have any suggestions?
