Hi. thanks for the response. Where can I find VCOrganize? I tried Googling it, but found no links.

Are there any other sugggestions from the group? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] da1prophet:
The full name is VCOrganizer. It's in the market. If you don't have market access let me know and I'll track down their website.

I'm also a long time Blackberry guy and until I got my DroidX my primary phone was a BB Curve. I loved the memos app--it wasn't exactly the cutting edge of technology but I sure used it alot. I now use Evernote in much the same way.
[Android Apps and Games] Lynehammike:
try Jorte

I have never used VCOrganiser, but I use Jorte which will allow you to create and manage tasks and memos with reminders and alarms. It is mainly a calendar, but has other Pim functionality built-in. I love the different widgets for putting your schedules on the home screen.

I can't stop flashing to new Roms... help me I'm addicted lol.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] butch87402:
Lol I'm addicted too.....hehe
[Galaxy S I9000 General] crandf:
I have a cure! Remove your batter halfway when flashing a new ROM and your addiction will be cured lol :P
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kangal:
Remove your battery -- Harr Haa nice one

I can think of a "safer" way to end-flashing.

1) How about flash one last time to your original (phone's) ROM ... and wait for the official update.

2) After another month, wait for the FINAL version of MIUI for SGS I9000 > flash that

After that never flash your phone again .... .... until ....

3) Someone gets Gingerbread / Custom (like MIUI) Gingerbread for the SGS I9000 go-bananas!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] decepticon:
My cure was the internal storage dying...I miss my addiction

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokidaemon:
I am have a small problem that's a major headache and how someone can help. On my captivate I was having trouble installing the newest version(E:signature verification failure) so I restored via odin3 then tried to root but encountered the same error. So it appears that there is a verification toggle but I don't believe I can do it unless it's rooted. I've also tried master clear also via odin. Any ideas or am i stuck in stock mode for good?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
sounds like you downloaded the wrong ODIN3. did you download JI6 or JF6? JF6 will take you back to factory, and JI6 is the leaked FROYO. the leaked FROYO doesnt recovery 2e and you cannot root it the same way you did with 2.1....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokidaemon:
that sounds like that could be will try and let you know thank you for the help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokidaemon:
It was the right odin so i'm still stuck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokidaemon:
yeah you were right it was the wrong odin, it had the right name, anyway i'm rooted and ready to install cognition so thanks for the help you rock!
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
So I dropped my vibrant into a cup of sprite today :(

Within two minutes I had the cover off and the battery/sim/SD out. Took another 20ish minutes until I could get it in a bag of rice. Anybody think it will work again? Going to try it in a couple of days.
[Vibrant General] rpope904:
I would have my doubts.. My suggestion, is to go ahead and take it apart, the warranty is toast. Once you have it apart, wipe it down with rubbing alcohol. This will get the sprite off of it, and alcohol evaporates quickly, so this way you know it'll be dry.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
My wife and I doubt the rice will work. Taking it apart is a good idea, and if it works I'll know I can tear it down to put the FFC in it :)
[Vibrant General] AustinKnight45:
Do this ^^ I got my g1 wet tried rice for 2 days and it turned on but the keyboard was all messed up and it was stuck in landscape mode so I took it apart used rubbing alcohol with a tooth brush put it back together and it worked everything was working great I sold it.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
I tried the rice for a couple of hours... It would power on to say Samsung, then it would start glitching/scrolling. Got the back off the mainboard pulled away from the front a little bit. I'm reluctant to take it apart any more than I need to.
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
Arg! You turned it back on too early, now your phone might be damaged. Also, the problem with Sprite vs. water is the sugar residue, it makes everything sticky. Water can evaporate off and leave little or no amount of trace but sprite on the other hand...
[Vibrant General] jnutz:
You must have been holding it wrong.

Sorry bad joke I know but I couldn't resist.:D
[Vibrant General] scrizz:
OMFG

you commited a big mistake!!!!!

never turn it on until a couple days have passed

make sure that you have pulled the battery out!!!

and since there are no warranty stickers,

clean it.

Soda is bad for phones?!So I'm assuming were not going to get that crazy straw app anytime soon then huh

[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
While I doubt the phone will work, it's not a big financial loss. The phone was free. If it starts working again then great, if not oh well.

I picked up This to use while we wait... and indefinitely if my spritbrant wont work.
[Vibrant General] splat matt:
How long have you had it? If it is within 30 days you could always try to return it. You never know you might get lucky. If you do warranty replacement with t-mo via the mail they will send you a refurb phone and if they determine your phone was abused they'll charge your account $100. Not bad for a screw-up.
[Vibrant General] gunks:
Nothing is free... Especially hundred dollar phones

Sent from my SGH-T959
[Vibrant General] kboater:
I tried the rice and it worked perfectly after i dropped my mytouch in the toilet.

you made 2 mistakes:

#1 the sprite needs to be removed. it not like water. it will leave residue behind when it dries, unlike water. as someone else mentioned, rubbing alcohol would have helped remove it.

#2 biggest mistake. honestly, what did you think the rice would do in a couple of hours? when it happened to me, i took it apart and had it in rice for 2 days before i even tried to power it on.

anyway, it may already be toast, but take it back apart, stick it in rice for a couple of days without touching it
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
I had a rebate, so it was kinda free.:D

It's still apart. Just sitting. The fact that it powered on (twice) makes me think it may be okay. Will try to rubbing alcohol tonight. AFter that I'm not touching it until Friday night.

Only time will tell.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
inform us what happens when it's done. i might try it, but i like coke better.
[Vibrant General] Wisefire:
I got my Vibrant for free. Seriously, free.

Free Phone Friday at Best Buy. The Vibrant cost me nothing. Now on the other hand, I have another 2 years in contract with T-Mobile, but that would have happened anyways.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
It wasnt even my sprite. It's all my wife will drink when she is sick. I might alcohol twice, once for sprite and once for her germs.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
lol maybe i will be scared to death if that happened to me.
[Vibrant General] henreeg:
lol and a 3rd time just to be sure

:rolleyes:
[Vibrant General] androidmonkey:
Was it regular or diet Sprite? If it was regular, you have a sugary mess! Once that stuff drys, it gets worse.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
What about one of those air cans used to dust out keyboards? Think that might blow out any residual liquid?
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Prob not..

That stuff gets stick.
[Vibrant General] Chalup:
LOL and this is why I'm so weary of buying used electronics.

Constantly Drinking
[Vibrant General] rpope904:
For sure let us know how it works out.. Like I said, an alcohol bath will do it wonders.. (As long as it wasn't fried turning it on). But, neverless alcohol does evaporate alot faster than water, what i've done in the past is pretty much soak a phone in alcohol, then use a hair dryer on low (while its still apart) for an hour or so, and it's worked fine. If it doesn't work then, it won't.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

It works! Took a few tries because I failed to clean the connectors for the screen and capacative buttons. Then because I didnt connect something... THEN because I forgot to put the screws back. But now it works! WOOO! Just a little distortion from the rear speaker. Just a weeeeeee bit. Also, I saw the spot for the FFC, why didn't they put it in?

i mean...i understand a pool, or the ocean, or the toilet even. But a cup of sprite? thats a new one. haha im sorry, i know this isnt funny, im pretty sure i would cry and/or kill everyone if my vibrant was ruined. good luck buddy, i hope eventually you get it to work. if not, that phone your using now isnt a complete POS. ive seen people get worse. good luck brah :D
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
I got it working. I think its on page 3. Alcohol and qtips.

Alcohol is my answer to everything as well man

[Vibrant General] raduque:
Glad to hear you got it working. I would've recommended you submerge the device's parts in 95% isopropyl alcohol, dunk it a couple times, then dry out over a period of a few hours.

BTW, I almost dropped my Vibrant into a bucket of hot soapy water tonight... that would've sucked, a lot.
[Vibrant General] mjnbrn:
All we had was 70... I think.

Atleast it would've been clean :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beniuec:
After wiping stats and draining the battery while it is charging back up is it ok to use the phone while charging or just let it sit. Thanks for the help
[Epic 4G General] betterment66:
Well he was very nice i must admit and even though i didnt get an answer i liked 2 much it was better than the usual "oh we dont know anything about it". He said that the Update WAS ready for the 11th of November but that tyhere were a couple of bugs and they are trying to work on it to relase as soons as possible. He said that he talked to a couple fo co-wrokers and his supervisor and he gathered that he truly sincerely didnt know(which i actually beleived for the first time) BUT that the LASTEST and FINAL DATE that FROYO for the epic will be out by is DECEMBER 5th, which i know is not the best date AT aLL but its certainly best than the END OF THE YEAR. so yeah wanted 2 share that, if anyone else scoops something up let US all know :-)
[Epic 4G General] hayabusa1300cc:
That's cool, even if true

the froyo leak has always been running as stable as

the 2.1 for me. So I am fine with it.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Can we just have a forum for Froyo gossip? Froyo is becoming the Brett Farve of the Epic 4G.
[Epic 4G General] aero1:
Total meaningless BS.

Literally no one in the first two tiers of tech support is going to have the slightest idea. It will be released when ready. Target are movable, they are not going to blow a few million bucks in needless support issues if it isn't ready on Dec 5, so the support person you spoke to was just completely making it it up. There was also clearly never a target of the 11th.

On of our more respected Sprint people here has said the target has been NOv 29th for a while and that is the only credible thing that has surfaced, and is incidentally, exactly in line with the only thing Sprint and Samsung have ever said publicly, which is their placing the release for Epic at between the end of November and the end of December.
[Epic 4G General] betterment66:
you sound angry dude lol
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
He's right. You're simply not going to get any kind of accurate answer from Sprint CS on things like this. They know practically nothing.
[Epic 4G General] sryans2004:
I really don't understand why u ppl are making it seem like the OP is doing something wrong.. we are all just wanting froyo and he called sprint and shared with us what the rep said. we will find out when it is when it comes which is hopefully gonna be soon...
[Epic 4G General] slosvt:
How does one get a copy of the leaked froyo?
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Just hop on over to the dev sub-forum. There is the leaked 2.2 beta and about 3 roms based on it already. You just need to root and install clockwork mod recovery.
[Epic 4G General] setox:
i work internally there and i can tell ya this i get all my info on the outside.... its not like we really know i also talk to multiple people in the company and we email each other to find info out... remember we are employee's not SPRINT don't rely on what an employee tells ya talk to the source ask Google when its coming out why are you asking a service provider? we don't make or create the software and we are not the equipment manufacture people need to come to grip and realize sprint is only a service provider
[Epic 4G General] infamousjax:
your a fool
[Epic 4G General] tsperez:
Info Source

That may be but I tend to agree with him. Your local Sprint store is not the best place to get information.

And btw, that should be "you're" not "your".

Lol now why would you post about you talking to a rep? Seriously it will come when it does. No one cares about you talking to a rep because chances are that rep is just pull it out of his ass to get you to go away.

Guys I just spoke to my doc and he told me its coming tomorrow I swear that's what he said, and its gotta be true because my doc said so, sooo yeaahh listen to me! Because I'm soo freaken cool! And I have the power to talk to people and get answers that none of you will ever be able to get! Bwahwawah.

I have a Sprint HTC Hero, rooted, overclocked, blah blah blah. It still does not do over half of the **** your Epics do. I cant even run a 3d game on this P.O.S. Point is, be thankful for what you have.

& for the record, 2.2 is nothing special.
[Epic 4G General] imwillzillla:
For the upgrade to fully use flash makes your point false. Froyo is a big step from 2.1.

And also I spoke to a rep as well. And he was giving me info he read off of Android Central so he's basically in the dark as much as we are. Phones being released is one thing because Stores get the info ahead of time for stock purposes. Froyo is something different.

And LOL@ the Bret Favre comment. I almost lost my drink!

I think these "I talked to a sprint rep who knows when it's coming out" Is the equivalent to "I played for my high school basketball team so I know what it's like to be in the NBA. You really have no insight on what's really happening
[Epic 4G General] ajac:
I've heard the 29th.. oh and I work for sprint but hope its true.
[Epic 4G General] jirafabo:
I'm pretty sure the few million bucks of support doesn't bother them one bit. As we've seen with the GPS issues, they'll just ignore it. No cost at all to them.
[Epic 4G General] rumbleturd:
Some Sprint reps know way more than others about current and upcoming products. However, keep in mind that it's not their job to keep you up to date on release dates for Froyo, and at least some of them just don't feel like talking to you about it even if they know. You can call again and again and ask 20 of them, and maybe you'll get someone that actually does know and is willing to share info with you, or you might get a bunch of people who just show up and do their jobs, don't give a crap about the products they support, and have no idea what you're talking about. Either way, I wouldn't discount something a Sprint rep says, because they're at least as likely to know as anyone else.
[Epic 4G General] Dj21o:
Flash is slow as **** anyways? Lol. And cant you just get the apk from somewhere and install? I did it on my hero, but my processor is sllllooowwwwww lol.

<~~~~~~~~~Coming from a Sprint Tech....

Stop putting so much say into what the guy at the store tells you, they are probably full of it..

There's no relay for store employees until at the latest, a week before an update is released.. There is no "Hey guys, we are preparing for a Nov 29 launch.."

It is more, "Hey guys, we are preparing an update launch soon, i'll let you know when I know."

The only people with confirmed information, reside in Overland Park, KS..

The tech at your local store is probably going on the same information you are, with a steadfast resolve..

Stop thinking you have the inside track of information, it doesn't exist, unless your husband or wife works in QA...
[Epic 4G General] imwillzillla:
You have to understand that there's been about 5 similar threads started and you begin to feel like a parrot explaining that Sprint store reps don't benefit Samsung or Sprint knowing when Updates come out, so it's not a priority for Samsung or Sprint to let them know.

If you read the first 3 pages of this section you'll see the same recycled threads and it gets annoying because you read "I HAVE INSIDE INFO ON THE EPIC FROM A SPRINT TECH." And then you click on it only to find out it's all speculation. So some vent their frustration in their replies.

Not saying it's cool to be a jerk but It doesn't take a know it all to be aware of something when it's already been stated 1893489 times. Samsung Epic owners are also on the annoyed side because there's other phones out there who have been experiencing Froyo for quite some time while they on the phone that is supposed to be the greatest thing ever is still 2 generations behind in terms of android ROMs.
[Epic 4G General] betterment66:
oh wow people r really angry these days, i think im going to keep making threads like these. its fun to read about people fighting over something that its not even tangible lmao.
[Epic 4G General] socos25:
I hear what you are saying, but now we have three pages of people giving crap to the OP about being dumb... The only reason why I evem looked at the thead was because there were so many replies, and they were all like. . . well you can read it for yourself.. I just ignore duplicates....

All I know is I've been here before, come such and such date, no update. Many, many, many times. If I know my fellow, long time ppc persons, they've waited with anticipation, and very seldom is a date that was named, happens. On all carriers. It is my opinion that this phone should have never been released without 2.2, too detrimental to the specs of this hardware. :confused:

Who cares about Froyo. The last sprint rep I talked to said October 1st! Just get a kick ass new rom and the kernel of your choice. It will beat the hell out of Froyo! When Froyo comes out I won't be updating till they get all the crap out of it and running right. That means about 1-2 months post Froyo release. lol

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssconceptz:
Ok, I purchased an EVO, it's approximately 2 mo old, and is of the older variety. When I initially checked it, the phone info said it was the 002 hardware version and it was the older screen. I started to have issues with the phone freezing between swipes, freezing up totally, and not responding to touch. Pulling the battery seems to correct it for only a moment. It would do this with or without apps installed. I thought there was an issue with the software so I downloaded the RUU for the latest 3.29.651.6 software and flashed it, still does the same thing after a while. I never rooted it and have yet to try, I do have a true 003 hardware EVO that is rooted and gives me 0 issues. I dont know if this is some freak thing or what. Sense keeps force closing, and I even shut it down completely and installed Launcher Pro to see if it would help, still get similar issues just not as bad. Does anyone have the same issue and do you think flashing the new 3.30 version or rooting it would help at all? Also another very important thing, my phone is now saying 003 hardware version, even though it is not. Im starting to think the software updates are hardware specific?

Thanks for any input!

I did find that 002 has screen issues but it doesnt seem to be a screen issue.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oshizzle1991:
i would root it...but first i would reformat your sd card, then hard reset your phone. personally, rooting phones for me solves all of the little issues that plague android. nothin is stabler than CM6.1
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
I'm not so sure about that. Have you tried MIUI?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imiddlet:
Only time I've had my phone run slow, is when I had installed something that caused it to happen.

Have you tried restoring to factory defaults, and letting it run without your apps installed? if it works fine then, slowly add apps til you find the one that keeps messing up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oshizzle1991:
yep kept havin this weird landscape issue in the SMS app. i would type on the keyboard but nothing would show up. i mean, MIUI is beautiful, dont get me wrong! but CM will always be my nandroid.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssconceptz:
Thank you for the recommendations, as I will try this stuff. I do not like CM6 due to the lack of 4G but I am going to try the 3.30 version, and it is now rooted but same issue. I think the SD card thing may work but I'm not totally sure. I have used it stock and same issue, I have two EVOs, one is 003 and the other is 002 that seems to think it is an 003... which still confuses the hell out of me, how it can say 002 then after a flash with a RUU it says 003.....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssconceptz:
But what would be causing it to run so slow that it is crasing Sense and other launchers. I have the same stuff installed on both phones. A battery pull/reboot will fix it but the longer it runs, the worse it gets. I check processes and it doesnt seem anything is holding it up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssconceptz:
I reformatted the sd, same issue. I don't know what to try next. I'm not sure Sprint has the equipment to test for a possible hardware issue. But its fine after a reboot. Then starts off by slow to respond to touch then totally freezes. Even one issue I had I couldn't get back to home.
