Samsung Omnia 7 :D

Somehow got the £35 month deal 900 min, 500 texts, unlimited landline calls, for £30 a month with t-mobile on a renewal i kept waiting for 3 months for Winmo7 deals. Wanted the HTC Pro 7 when it came out, But couldn't wait any longer :P

Along with comeradealexi everytime i look at the screen it's amazing. Glad i took it over the HTC. Bright, Crisp, Colour looks great.

I see jip about features such as settings that drain the bat are automaticly disabled like the camera features but i've come to think they work. the bat isn't the GREATEST i've noticed, so anything to keep it alive and kicking longer is A+ in my books.

The audio on the Samsung is amazing, and better than most bluray decoders i'm seeing because of the requirments of this thing.

And i'm glad they went NAND style storage *thumbs up Samsung*, Quicker, Snappy than SD and what you would expect as xbox's use the same style Nand storage but they only use 4gb in the new models, anyone who wants more GBs is just being silly, I'f you get a £500+ smartphone and can't afford Zune Pass while you have the phone then your should get another phone for music or your gonna moan. Simple as that.
[Omnia 7 General] fik87:
Whatever you do, stay away from three. I think you can get an omnia 7 from t-mobile/orange instead.
[Omnia 7 General] mwako:
t-mobile man, they always been good to me, plus we can use oranges signal now whatever that means to more coverage in 2G at least.
[Omnia 7 General] wwfc:
Right, found another deal which I'm defo going to go for.

-Free omnia 7

-T-mobile 24month

-600 mins

-500 sms

-Unlimited Data allowance

-Best of all £25 per month!

Thanks again for your responses.
[Omnia 7 General] saldawop:
Where did you find this deal?

[Omnia 7 General] Milky1:
It's not so much the coverage, it's...well, a story:

When I went to O2 to get a HD7 the guy came over right away and we went through the form filling out and he explained everything and it all went smoothly. My number was ported within a few hours and all was good. When I took the phone back they didn't even ask why I wanted to return it they just put it through the till and refunded me all the money. They were great.

Then I went to the 3 store next door, the guy came over soon enough and said he had 1 Omnia 7 left. When I said I would take it we went over to the computers and while we were entering the details in he kept trying to sell me various things, first a router, then 3 home broadband. That was the first thing to annoy me, O2 did not try to sell me anything extra, not even a case.

After all the forms were done I gave him the PAC code and he said my number would be ported within 24 hours, it took 3 days. And even after 3 days it still had call forwarding on for some reason, so I rang the support line and of course the call centres are in India. The support guy couldn't help at all he said just wait longer basically. In the end I had to do the special code thing to get rid of it.

Is anyone else's Gmail not syncing?
[HTC Aria General] Darius_bd:
.

Working fine here...
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
Weird! I have 2 Arias at the moment, 1 running Sense, and one running CM6.1, both have not received an email notification and have not synced since last night!
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
mine was.

i found somewhere last night after a lot of googling, to go into SETUP - APPLICATIONS - GMAIL and "clear cache".

it'll just basically wipe out all the email gmail has downloaded and cached on the phone causing it to redownload the same email off the gmail servers. nothing will be lost.

gonna see how it fairs today.
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
oops...meant mine wasn't syncing also.
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
yeah, ive cleared cache, and also went as far as clearing data and readding my account! still not syncing, just says your email will appear shortly.
[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
Did mine last night. Rebooted this morning after leaving it on the charger overnight. It's been back to normal for me.

Must be random. I know they had server issues back on the 11th according to their app statuses on Google's site
[HTC Aria General] ewong90:
Try this

Go to settings>Accounts & Sync>Google>toggle Sync Gmail off and on

Then you should be able to sync.
[HTC Aria General] Darius_bd:
.

And it happens both in 3G and WiFi?
[HTC Aria General] jbizz:
Yeah, its really bizarre... so, I am able to sync a second gmail account, and it works fine! Just not my primary. Spoke with ATT & HTC, now I guess its Google's turn! LOL
[HTC Aria General] cactusbek:
Google won't sync for me

I've tried all of above suggestions, to no avail. When I press gmail, I get a screen that says "waiting for sync" and then "Your email will appear shortly." Nothing ever happens, and it's been over a week.

I thought about deleting the account and recreating, but it won't let me delete it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Esteef:
Whats the best way to report bugs/suggestions with CM6 RC1 to cyanogen and his team?

For example...

In spare parts, there is an option to make the font size of the system smaller but when I select it and leave the menu. It reverts back to normal.

Another one being, in the customizable section of his settings where you can change the color of notification bars etc.... the color orange is not an option on his color wheel. I had to go find the HTML code for orange to input it myself.

I know these aren't major bugs but it would be nice to see a fix in future RC's

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
About a week ago my Desire stopped syncing with Google calendar properly.

The items missing are regular recurring events. These events are still in my calendar when I log on to Google Calendar via the computer, but have disappeared from the phone calendar. Non-recurring events still appear on the phone.

I've tried unchecking and then re-checking Google under accounts to force a re-sync, but no joy.

Any ideas, short of a wipe data/factory reset?

I rooted my buddies epic today and installed wifi tether and we couldn't get it to work. The app was granted su permission and turns on, but no PC or other wifi phones can find it. Any ideas? Trying to leave him on a stock rooted rom because he has no idea what's going on. Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
Wireless Tether from the market doesn't work, you'll need a different version. Uninstall the one from the market and install the latest one from here (pre11 works for sure, but the newer ones should also): http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
[Epic 4G General] gu3r0:
I tried a bunch of them and none worked. The tether starts up but i cant find his signal from my evo. Having the same problem with another friends vibrant.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Try MobileAP
[Epic 4G General] humdrum2009:

check skip wpa supplicant under settings for the wireless tether.

[Epic 4G General] wjsmaggle:
Try turning on access control and add the computer to it. That's always worked for me.

Sent from the fastest phone in the galaxy
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
I think your issue is that Wireless Tether creates an ad-hoc network, and most (if not all?) Android devices cannot connect to ad-hoc networks (at least without some work). It's working fine, just the Evo cannot connect to it. You would need a laptop or something else. As suggested, try MobileAP, since it works in infrastructure mode.
[Epic 4G General] mynewepic10:
I pulled the .apk file from the syndicate rom and that one worked with no issues at all.
[Epic 4G General] mynewepic10:
Attached are the files I used. I put them on my SD card and installed. Up and running with no issues.
[Epic 4G General] BThomas22x:
This is what you gotta do.. get it all installed and open it... then hit "menu" followed by "access control" ...when that page pops up, at the top right corner there's a box that's unchecked... check that box... now trn on the tether, alow a minute for the computer to pick it up then try to connect... when it pops up it'll show "androidtether" as the name... connect to it... at this point it'll ask your phone for permission, so slide down the statusbar and click on the little image that pops up... it'll take you back to the "access control" page and beside where the computer just showed up, click the little box and it should start tethering at that point... hope that helps...

Note: these steps are for the apps listed in post #2 that you download from google.

I want to use Launcher Pro as my main Launcher, but I read that it does`nt over ride TW, its just there with TW. My question is, since I dont use TW that much, could I clean it up by getting rid of some of the apps there, or would that also delete or affect apps etc. in Launcher Pro?

No point in having TW packed with stuff when I dont use it that much, cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khiyatesh:
if you wana get tw deleted...then root your phone ...install root explorer...start root explorer....so to system\app\ and delete touchwiz30launcher.apk and touchwiz30launcher.odex...youw tw launcher will be completely removed...but i would recommend you to have tw launcher....because it wont do anything to your galaxy s being installed there in your phone...:)...but i have also told you the way of deleting it....enjoy :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tragusman:
i agree having 2 launchers i think is essential as back up when modding either of them so you can use the other one to fix the one you break:) if you know what i mean. Just set launcher pro as default and you wont know tw is there.

Any apps you uninstall will be deleted from both launchers.

Try a restart dude, sounds stupid but might work, then select and check the default box when prompted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nwsk:
Alternatively you could try get a rom from the dev section where TW has already been removed. I don't recommend removing it manually if you're not sure what you're doing..

Also, they're both just launchers, so they just list links to apps. If you remove an app in TW, it will be removed from LP

I have used several ROMS and the the 2 best ones IMO are CRMOD and CM 6.1. If you don't need Bluetooth then I would suggest CM 6.1, its nice and fast and has very few bugs. If you need Blueooth then go with CRMOD its not as fast as CM 6.1 but is very stable and has working Bluetooth.

[Nexus One General] tenbeau:
I received 2 updates from google today installed the first one and all was well and the second one the update hung on the triangle and exclamation mark. I am not sure what to do. Any and all help is very much appreciated. I am rooted but on the stock last updated rom. I had flashed clockworkmode recovery. Since the first update of the two went well I just figured the second was a slam dunk. Boy was I wrong. How do I go about flashing back to clockworkmode recovery.?

Edit: Pulled battery and hit power button and the device booted back up to frf91 and not frd83d I am still rooted and cannot understand what just happened. I installed the first of two updates that were required and the second hung up and Now it shows me with system up to date. Do I have to flash to stock? I thought I was on stock as it was a manual install of an OTA The only thing i have done is root it with the one click root and flash clockworkmode recovery. No custom roms or anything of that nature. Am I not able to update to Gingerbread now when it comes out? Any help?/Please!!
[Nexus One General] madmikethespoon:

Hi Guys,

Can any one tell me how I can unlock my Samsung Fascinate? It's loacked on Telus (Canada) network.

Thanks in advance,

Muhammad
[General Questions and Answers] Captainkrtek:
Im pretty sure Telus is CDMA and therefore can't really be used on other networks except for other CDMA networks, and even so if you do want to use it on other CDMA networks it is near impossible as Carriers are very stringent on letting people use other devices on their networks. Its like trying to use the EVO 4G on Verizon, although CDMA its near impossible. Hope this answer helps :)

Looking for a GPS tracker to track one of the kids haha. I know it is a little unethical but I got over that.

It would be cool to be able to track her on my phone, but I could do with a web interface need be (these things access the internet as well, right?)

It would probably need to lock or hide itself in the app drawer (I rather have it hidden.) She would probably throw a fit otherwise. I don't mind paying for the right app.

Yeah....I just hate to pay extra when there are all these awesome apps that are potentially free.

I think I have found what I am looking for though.

Family GPS Tracker

Simple interface, not really a tracker but will be fine for what I need to use it for. Best of all you can change the update frequency so the app isn't phoning home constantly and destroying the battery.

Now I just need to find a way to hide the app haha.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
latitude would be a good option if the person never opened it, lol. as soon as they do, they could turn it off, hide themselves, or just set it to a hard location ("i'm going to jessica's, dad", set's latitude for jessica's house, then is over to brad's tra la la la la)

if she had a custom ROM on her phone, you could make launcher pro the default home, then hide latitude from the app drawer. unless she's savvy, she wouldn't think about it. latitude should update.

of course, if you're going to go that way, you could use any one of several things and just hide them from the app drawer.

I would recommend the Ninja Tracker - when my son passed his driving test I was always worrying about him so we now have one of these in his car (he knows it is there) and I often use it to check he has arrived safely at his destination etc... Also popped one in my daughters bag when we went to a music festival last year - just for peace of mind really - meant that she could have more freedom to wander off with her friends but at such a packed venue we could find her easily by logging into our interface via my iphone.
