I did that tutorial so I am using launchpro. The only extra apps I have installed BESIDES what was needed ffor the tutorial are angrybirds, robodefense, doubletwist(with all of my music),snesoid, romgripper, and I think that's it. Nothing too crazy. Is there anyway to check if that whole voodoo thing worked? Or if I did the tutorial correctly? Oh wait, isnt there like a bench mark tester orsomething?

The only widget I have is for doubletwist. But it doesnt consistently run just by having the widget on my homescreen does it? Do I still need an extra task killer app?

See above comments. Do I really need a task killer?
[Fascinate General] devlp1213:
no don't use a task killer, he was saying that is the mistake ppl make
[Fascinate General] fupamobile:
Then what can I do to ensure my phone is running correctly? Cause it really doesnt feel like it is.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
Try Watchdog or another app that records cpu usage and see if you have a rogue app hogging cpu time. Even before installing a new rom that was cleaned up and a new kernel, I didn't have any significant lag or anything, so I'd guess that you have something running in the background causing your issues.
[Fascinate General] times_infinity:
His lag could be from rfs working too hard.

Install one of geeknik's stupid fast kernels or install one of jt's voodoo5 kernels if you want to convert rfs to ext4.	rfs and stock kernel tend to generate ridiculous lag.
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
That is only true if he has an app that is constantly writing which means the above suggestions to find said app are the best. Also on regards to kernels only voodoo kernels will address rfs problems. Only voodoo.

@adrynalyne If you can , let me know if there are special steps for that thing you sent me. Not getting past the samsung logo everytime.

Hello I need help to change my Qtek A9100 - G4 WM5 WM6 to encounter some problems but ...

Well here we go:

1 - Looking for a WM6.0 ROM or 6.1 is the minimum that can be customized and if possible the original English or Portuguese (Port. has many bugs) and tested in a device similar to mine to avoid bugs. (Put the exact link to download please because they've walked over the hill in a wheelchair and behind everything I meet and vague)

2 - All the programs needed to upgrade (again ask the exact links to download because I can not stand to look anymore)

3 - A good installation tutorial since I have all 7 and joining could not ride one, everyone is different and confusing methods of installing the rom.

Now I'll post the settings of the machine is running without remembering that no problem just want to upgrade because of compatibility and even aesthetic:

Hi,

This is about my Samsung Vibrant. I flashed a new rom onto it and after the regular installation the screen turned black and would not turn back on. Like nothing works. No lights, no anything, like the power button hasn't even been touched.

Is my phone bricked? Is there any fix to this?

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
what do you mean black screen? as in no power at all? Even when charging the phone?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeapingLlama:
I've tried all three button combinations.

Removing the battery and then holding the two volume buttons and inserting the battery then pluging it into my computer.

Nothing seems to work. The phone is unresponsive and the screen remains black the whole time. The four lights on the bottom of the screen don't even light up.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeapingLlama:
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).

3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you have already taken it out in the last step.

4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.

5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.

6. You should be in Download Mode.

This is under the NO-BOOT phones.

I tried and it doesn't put it into download mode. If I can get it back to download mode it would be golden.

Samsung Kies Error Message when contacts are being backed up

Hi,

I too had faced an identical problem after upgrading the O.S. to Froyo on my Galaxy S.

I was able to solve this problem, after I deleted all my Contacts on my Galaxy S and then reloaded all my Contacts from the Contacts Backup file that I had fortunately created before upgrading to Froyo.

I am now able to backup, once again, all my Contacts on my PC and also synch effortlessly with Outlook.

Hopefully, you too have a backup for your Contacts. If so, do try this out. It should work. Good luck. ;)

Hi folks,

First, sorry my bad English. I didn't found any solution in Turkish forums. I have a problem with Turkish characters incoming SMS. Turkish language is including extra "ı,ş,ü,ö,ç,ğ" characters. If incoming SMS has a "ı" character in sentence, i see that like "ğ" For example: Writing in SMS "nasılsın", it seems "nasğlsğn"

I updated to Froyo 2.2 last month. When i was on Eclair 2.1, i did not saw any that problem. I think so problem about with charset (iso8859-1, UTF-8, windows-1253 bla bla)

Have you any idea how i can fix it?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofulanof:
Doesn't matter if you're on FROYO or ECLAIR. It doesn't matter if you have European CSC or Turkish one.

There are problems in Turkish operators, regarding unicode characters.

Try sending a sms with Turkish characters from an iPhone or another Android phone USING UTF8. You will see that characters display properly.

Try sending a sms with Turkish characters from an old type phone with no UTF8 support (only GSM alphabet). You will see that characters are mixed up.

Workaround: Tell all your friends not to use Turkish characters. That's the only solution that works everytime.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcom222:
Has anyone had any issue with the G Tablet shutting down after it goes to sleep? Right now I am running virtually stock (rooted with latest VS update). If I leave the tablet for 10 minutes the screen will shut off as expected, but when I try to wake it by hitting the power momentarily the tablet does nothing. If I press power for a few seconds the tablet boots up as it does from being completely shut down.

If I select sleep from the power off menu, I can wake it if I hit the power button or home button, but only if I do it within about 30 seconds. If I wait any longer, it seems to shutdown. I don't see any settings anywhere for this.

Other than this, everything else seems fine. About the only other thing I can think to mention is I did flash to tnt lite 2.02 and had to recover due to boot loops. I've reset, cleared data and cache, etc...

Thanks for any feedback.

This was happening to me and I tried many nvflashes and every rom so everything you can try. I exchanged mine today after a lot of research online and now for the first time it sleeps and wakes up. I am certain that there are just a few models that can not be fixed.

So happy to be able to hit the power button to have it wake up.

I recommend if you still can then exchange it for another.

My Malata Zpad does this sometimes too. I thought it was movement that did it, or the magnets on the case, but it looks to do it at random (or when something runs in the background?)

well i only have the tablet for a few hours - and that was a problem out of the box

before installing anything i did the "wipe user data" option from the settings menue in the original/stock TnT - then logged in using Family name - and shut down to root (install CM/vegan ect)

i just downloaded and installed this: "1.0.0 Beta5.1 Link" - thats posted on the first post on the vegan thread

so didn't install any kernal updates or anything yet...if you can point me towards them and what to install i would really appreciate it - thanks

I had the same problem out of the box as well. I tried using the Vegan rom with the same result. I went ahead and downloaded a free app called hibernate from the market. It puts it to sleep and allows me to wake it up like how its suppose to. As of now, it has yet to shutdown when asleep.

This is a "bump".

I just wanted to know if the folks with the original issue on this thread (gTab shutting down after sleep) tried my suggestion and if so did it fix the issue for them?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copc:

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiphy:
This didnt' fix it for me, I believe that this setting only changes things when the tablet is plugged in. If you leave the tablet unplugged and put it to sleep does it still come back for you?

On mine the problem happened whenver I hit the power button and let it sit for more than 5 seconds. I did a factory reset/wipe user data and now it takes like 10 seconds of being powered down for it to happen.

I'm going to try a different ROM and see if it fixes it.

wipe data reinstall tnt fixed it

I had similar problems. When installing Miren browser fixed it, I concluded it was a software bug. I wiped the data and reinstall tnt 2.4. Works like a champ. Since I am happy with 2.4, I won't upgrade for a while.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjmoreno:
Yes the setting is meant for while plugged in but it worked for me regardless if it was plugged in or not. When not plugged in the screen would turn off but the gTab wouldn't shut all the way down.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiphy:
Still can't figure this out

I restored my backup to the factory ROM and the problem still occurred. I then installed TNT lite 4.1.0 and the problem is still occurring (even after setting the development setting). Between each install I wiped out the cache/davlik cache and restored factory defaults.

One thing I notice, when I first boot after a ROM update the problem seems to not happen until after the SD card is searched for media and other background processing is complete. But once the OS "settles in" a bit I get the shutdown (sleep of death) problem if I leave it sleeping for more than 10 seconds or so.

It's almost like if nothing is going on in the system the problem happens but as long as something is going on things are ok.

I had an Archos 101 which had a "deep sleep" option off the power button that this unit doesn't have. Could it be that it is trying to go into "deep sleep" mode but this hardware doesn't support it or something? I don't now, I'm kind of running out of things to try. I may try to write an app that tries to do something in the background to see if that has an effect.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiphy:
Thanks to those who are helping! I still can't seem to solve this issue.

I tried the 0119 build of the 2.6.32.28 pershoot kernel with the latest TNTLite (4.1) and Vegan (5.1) and the problem persisted.

I then tried the 1/9 build that was recommended by Jim with Vegan 5.1 and still had the problem.

The process I use is as follows:

1) Boot Clockwork Mod

2) Mount Data and System, Wipe Cache, Davlik Cache and wipe user data

3) Install ROM (TNT Lite or Vegan)

4) Mount Data and System, Wipe Cache, Davlik Cache and wipe user data

5) Boot into ROM (I found that if I try to kernel patch immediately it bootloops)

6) Reboot into clockwork mod

7) Mount Data and System, Wipe Cache and Davlik Cache and wipe user data

8) Patch Kernel

9) Mount Data and System, Wipe Cache, Davlik Cache. Leave user data (not sure if that would wipe out kernel...probably not necessary anyway)

10) Boot into ROM, verify Kernel was updated using settings->about tabet

Am I doing anything unecessary or missing anything? Is there more to clear than what I'm clearing?

The problem is so odd, it is definitely not at random, the longer the device sleeps the more likely the problem is to happen, although in my case I can't get it to sleep for more than 60 seconds without happning. I've tested by going up in 5 second increments (sleep 5 seconds, press power, sleep 10 seconds, press power etc.).

Thanks again for the help...

I'm going on 6 hrs now of sjmoreno's post #16 suggestion and tried it at different sleep times and it works fine every time. (I have been running on battery power since I first tried it)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiphy:
More information

A few more things I tried:

1) With stock ROM 3389 problem still occurs (stock rom takes a long time to check SD card for media and as previously mentioned it doesn't happen while that is going on).

2) If I stay plugged in the suggestion in posts 16 to set the development option for preventing sleep while charging prevents the issue from happening (which makes sense as the device never goes into sleep mode, it just turns the screen off). This doesn't "solve" the issue though as I don't intend to keep it plugged in all the time.

3) Otherwise the problem still happens even when plugged in.

Is it possible that somehow the version of ClockworkMod is doing this on my system? I used the one recommended on the the main thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245) which is v08.

Any other thoughts? I find it really hard to believe it's hardware as other than this everything else runs ok, but at some point you throw your hands up.

Sean
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2manytoys:
Try removing the SD Card and see if it happens (reboot without the SD Card inserted and leave it on)

Also, when I first got mine it did this all the time. I'd say it's fixed itself, but that doesn't seem to make sense (unless it stores how you use the device in a file somewhere???)

I haven't changed the ROM at all but it almost never does it now (about 3-4 weeks old). Actually, I can't remember the last time it did it. At saying that I removed my SD Card quite some time ago. Maybe it's related to that, hence the suggestion to remove your SD Card.

Give that a go.
