Ok. You HAVE to flash the modem with odin even thou you flashed already fire the dk05 gps fix. Otherwise the rom loses service.it won't brick it.just reflash a know working rom like dk05 or stock witj cwm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jzh797s:
Im excited to give this a go. I am currently running DK05 Modem and Quantum Rom v1.3.

I have been flashing often as all of these new releases seem to be coming out daily. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to back up my score/level unlocks on Angry Birds? Its frustrating re-playing everything every time I re-flash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fastmikey1969:
Haha, use Titanium Backup, then you can restore "App +Data".

[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
Ouch.. the dk17 modem took a step backwards. No gps now

dk05 NEVER failed me.

I might have to go back to dk05 till another build perhaps.

I dont mind

reflashing the modem to dk05 results in no service.

reflashing the modem to dk17 i have gps

within merely a couple seconds of opening gps status i was locked to 8/8 sats
[Epic 4G Android Development] dantichrist:
My didn't work at all after I flashed this either. I had to flash back to eclair to use the GPS hidden menu because I couldn't get any of the codes to work. I can't remember where the settings were I used but I reember what I put in.

I did *#4172365#

Changed settings to:

First button:

Hot Start

Stand Alone

Navigation

I changed xtra settings to enable xtra, and disabl auto downloads.

In Qos I changed the top number to 30, and left the second one alone it was 180 or 1800 I can't remember.

I restored in CWM to my dk17 backups then re flashed the dk17 kernel.

After that, I'm getting REALLY fast locks. And the accuracy has been from 5ft to 9ft in my living room. I hope it stays this way! I just did this last night and everything is still running great.

Hope this helps! :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] lrosado:
found a bug, when you let the screen shut off on its own, instead of locking itself like in 2.1, it just stays on the last screen you were on. doesnt auto lock.

So does this have wifi tether out of the box since its froyo? What wireless tether will work with this? Also any word on the zip to flash in clockwork i try to avoid odin?
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
I have an odd issue. Everything works fine except for sound. At first my ringer is nice and loud as it should be, however after awhile it gets really quiet even with the volume up. When I reboot it's loud again. Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] fczeuner:
It will autolock about 30 sec after the screen goes out. I think there's a setting
[Epic 4G Android Development] fczeuner:
My gps is just as broke as it was on dk05.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dwallersv:
Well.

The source is anon for what should be an obvious reason: This is a leak.

Second, the witholding of GPL source at this time should also be for an obvious reason: The original source of the code, Samsung, has not yet released the compiled product, or the source code. There are potential legal issues in putting their code out in the public domain before they have.

Of course, there are potential legal issues with having this code at all. So we're all playing a little dance here to have it in the first place. However, I strongly (very strongly) suspect that the anonymous leaker actually has permission to leak this to certain trusted individuals, with the understanding it would be built and released unofficially into the user community, and Sammy and Sprint get a whole bunch of testing feedback they could never duplicate on their own with in-house testing.

Why not just do a mass public beta? Because then Samsung would be officially connected to the buggy product, open themselves to a major support hassle (no matter how many disclaimers the end-user must agree to), and the way things go today in courts, probably have legal exposure (again, no matter what the end-user has agreed to).

This way, they have totally plausible deniability, we get early exposure and can play, we both in the end get a better quality official release.

It's a true win-win. It's exactly how I'd do it (in fact, it's a strategy we've followed in a few companies I worked for).

Broken gps , and if I try to change ringer or adjust volumes from settings I get a vibration, hangs then reboots.
[Epic 4G Android Development] danweb66:
With all the questions about odin and how do I do this and what do I do then...... First off I've tried all of the leaked froyo builds, and I've had this one going for a day now and no problems what soever I've doubled battery life its blazing fast and gps works fine. If you are one of the people who were wondering what or how to use odin then there is a reason why you are having problems. I'm not trying to be rude but some of you should realy wait for official realeases so we don't get these cluttered up threads, and complaints about things that don't realy even exist. I feel much better now, just had to get that off my chest.
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
Comments such as these (and even my own) clutter threads. You saying this will change nothing and help nothing. There are many of us who have at least a decent knowledge of android and computers, yet occasionally still come upon an issue. If it wasn't necessary then why do all apps and even odin included need different versions? Because they have issues. What is the need for a debugging interface? Because issues exist. Don't be naive and ignorant man.

Try unplugging your phone > Rebooting you computer > And don't plug your phone back in until odin is re-opened.
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Mine is the complete opposite -- DK05 I was able to see up to 15 satellites sometimes, but never could lock. This go around I can lock, and get accuracy up to 30 feet so far. Haven't tried it in a very open area though, just on the porch of my apartment.

Well so far so good! tomorrow or way later tonite will be the test to see

if it works. if not, im back to my trusty dk05 lol.

I actually havent seen any lil changes from this as i seen from dj29 to dk05

except for smoother app drawer scrolling

its obvious GPS is a device to device compatibility, not all devices.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
I just want to be sure I am correct. I am currently using a 2.1 Ecclair rom and want to load dk17 on my Epic. Is this how to do it step by step:

1. Download Odin 1.6/New PIT/Modem

2. Install odin 1.6

3. Use the included files to flash the modem (check only "Aut PIT in the "PIT" section and modem.tar in the "PDA" section on the right.)

4. Download the Rom/Kernel from the second link, drop onto my SD card and Boot Clockwork

Here is where I'm at a loss... after doing this flash, how will I be able to boot into clockwork? Or does the first flash using odin NOT wipe my phone?
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
This is only flashing the modem so you should still have your clockworkmod intact.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
Think I'm gonna go chance it. Hopefully I don't brick
[Epic 4G Android Development] classklown:
just flashed this. So far so good, I will post back any issues/performance notes. I did notice that right out the box I am getting 14 linpack and 1023 quadrant. Can't wait to what we (the community) can do with this.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I noticed the same thing. It would seem that after using voice input, the audio somehow gets rerouted through the earpiece instead of the speaker. That's why it sounds so low. I noticed it tonight when I used voice recognition to enter an address into Google Navigation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] russwaggs:
Yes this process fixed my GPS. After you flash back to DI18 - if you use the full recover tar file, you'll need to reinstall clockwork mod. I did it as step 1b.

Thanks for your help!

Hi guys,

Most of the email/server stuff is totally unknown territory for me

I've got 2 questions about contacts, and how they work.

1. "Unable to edit SNS contacts on phone", this is weird, cause I thought this was only supposed to happen with Facebook Contacts, but I'm getting this message when I'm trying to edit a gmail contact. Why?

2. Facebook Icon in Contact List

Blue Icon (with white "F") / Green Icon (with "head/torso").

What's the difference?

I removed my Facebook account and added it in again on my phone yesterday.

Previously, I only had the Green Icon in my contact list show up.

Under "Display Options", this was also the only facebook contact type listed.

Now, after syncing my Facebook account again, I have both the Blue and Green Icons.

Both Blue and Green also show up under "Display Options" as separate entries.

I'm wondering how come there are 2 types, and which does what?

And whether I even want both.

thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capn1:
The only green icon I have is the one with a phone in it. (Actually after looking the sim card icon is also green.) My fb icon is blue with a white f in it. The only one that shows up though is the google one because I got tired of messing with the sim card everytime I flashed a new rom.

I think the "Unable to edit SNS contacts on phone" message just shows up if they are joined with a fb contact but you can still edit the google or phone part. You can't change their picture though, maybe you can if you unjoin them then rejoin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Culverin:
Hmmmm,

Sounds like you're talking about the "Display Options" screen.

I have

Phone (green with white phone)

Sim (green with gold squares

Google (black with white rim)

Facebook (blue with white "f", the standard facebook logo)

Facebook (green with a white head and torso, pretty much the same head/torso as my launcher pro contacts icon).

Does anybody else know?

Both list my email beside the contact.

As for the SNS contact, that person didn't have a Facebook contact.

Which is why I thought it was so weird when I tried to edit their google contact.

Two epics, exact same software, baseband, kernel, both freshly reflashed... one sees 9 satellites and locks onto 8 right away and the other sees same 9 satellites right away but will not get a fix.

[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Let me guess. One phone was your old phone that you had replaced by the new phone because of the GPS issue. The new phone locks on right away when the old phone doesn't. Hmm, this issue has only been covered about 30,000 times in these forums. Your new phone has an empty cache when your old phone had a cache with old data in it. Give your new phone about a week and magically it will be "broken" like your old phone.

If my prediction is correct, move on, nothing to see here.

[Epic 4G General] shook187:
Not again!!! Dude my GPS works the balls. I use it just for ****s and giggles. I use it even if I know were I'm going.
[Epic 4G General] sling:
lol.

This has been gone over so so many times my friends.

Just because you get fast fix doesn't mean your getting true fix.It takes at least 5 loc to get accurate positioning.

On first power up You will get fast fix 9+ loc then when you turn off whatever gps app running then turn back on you will get fast fix only 1 loc if lucky.

gps Cach isn't clearing thus more then one loc is scarce after first gps app open.

Only way to get it working again temporarily is to battery pull so gps cach clears.

That my friends is gps issue.

Why some Epic owners are in denial of that fact is beyond me.

They get fast position fix & think no GPS issue present everything's dandy.

Samsung has been aware of issue for some time hopefully they get their act together and release patch soon put to rest such threads
[Epic 4G General] cbpagent72:
I agreei have owned 3 Epic's and every single one's gps sucked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CallMeLaNN:
Hi,

Android <-- USB/Bluetooth <-- PC/Laptop (Keyboard)

Few months ago, I try to get this things to work but no luck. Now I am really need to solve this again to make my life easier.

The case is in work place I have PC/laptop and my Android phone of couse. I want to use my phone with actively require keyboard typing for some reasons. Since I am using HTC Desire and I have two keyboards on my desk, why not I am using any of the keyboards to pair with my Android!.

I dont have any bluetooth keyboard and I want to utilize my desktop keyboard :)

After searching and googling with no luck for second time, I post here by hoping somebody can share with me with the same situation and interesting Android feature.

I know someone has hack a USB keyboard to directly connect to Micro USB in HTC to act as USB On The Go but I am not interested to cut my keyboard wire for that purpose only and not sure it can be done for Desire.

Bluetooth:

Last time I found a solution by using KeyPro from MobileGear and Choose a Freedom or i.Tech Virtual Keyboard driver. Then I create a Windows .NET application on laptop to send a Key code to KeyPro via bluetooth. The problem is I dont know the key codes designed for the keyboard to be sent. The developer also dont want to reveal the codes. I only need any real bluetooth keyboard supported by the supported keyboard to capture the key codes and map into my .NET application to simulate the keyboard from my Laptop.

** If somebody have the supported keyboard please share :)

USB:

Today I just thinking if possible from USB debugging mode (phone attached to Laptop USB), use adb shell, script/windows app or whats over, can send key to Android, so any active/foreground app can receive it just like what Android keyboard do???

Oddly enough the Ipad connects much easier to exchange and does most of the other stuff natively. You buy the office App and the ability to edit Doc's and excel works great.

Given the hardware specs I'm mystified why Viewsonic is treating these as toys. Sure they're great for home use but we buys units in the hundreds so why make the primary business need to connect to exchange so damn difficult.
