[Epic 4G General] storytobetold:
I'm probably going to exchange my Epic on Monday or Tuesday for another one.

The bad part is I've got a screen protector on it, the good part is I bought a 2-pack of Seidio protectors and I put this one on bad anyway so once I exchange out I'll still be good.

I know to flash back to stock ROM/kernel/everything with ODIN, but is there anything else I need to pay attention to?

Thanks in advance.

(For anyone wondering: I'm doing it over some qualms with battery life and the slide mechanism. I don't want things to get any worse and have to make an insurance claim or pay $35 or whatever down the line.)
[Epic 4G General] storytobetold:
I ODIN'd back to stock in order to do the Froyo upgrade.. and then upgraded to Froyo, obviously.

If I return it Monday with Froyo on it, will they deny me? I mean, it TECHNICALLY came from Samsung.. but the staff might not know or care, since it is technically flashing firmware and all that jazz.

TIA, etc
[Epic 4G General] entropism:
If you're doing a 30 day exchange, they REALLY don't give a ****. I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but we're all way too busy trying to sell new phones that as long as you don't have liquid or physical damage, we're not concerned.

So yeah, rest easy... We have quotas to meet =)
[Epic 4G General] storytobetold:
You're not bursting any bubble that you need to apologize about.. just the one of my paranoia, which needed to be burst a long time ago.

By the way -- can you tell me how many Epics you've seen get returned for battery or slide issues? Just want to know if I'm nitpicking or not..
[Epic 4G General] uranidiot:
y r u returning it. its finally worth keeping now.
[Epic 4G General] Sh0wNuF:
Sounds like he's doing a swap, not switching phones
[Epic 4G General] storytobetold:
I am simply swapping for another -- and I think it would be worth keeping even if we were stuck on Eclair.

ADMITTEDLY, it's my first Android phone.. but it's amazingly fast and I am in love with the thing. Just not how my particular phone seems to suck battery life, have a loose-enough-to-cause-concern slider and generally make me want to hate it.
[Epic 4G General] jwhisl:
Speaking as a tech, If you take it to a service and repair store they will look at the software. The good news is that the software is technically from Samsung and Sprint can't prove otherwise. If you're taking it to a normal store that doesn't have techs they will probably just exchange it no questions asked
[Epic 4G General] entropism:
My S&R store won't even look, we're too busy. If it powers on and there's no damage, we take it in.

That being said, we don't get many returns at all. We explain the battery life to the customer, haven't seen too many faulty slides.
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Most likely.. Everyone I exchange or see sales return, the customer Is back a couple weeks later.. It's how you use the battery not the phone... Android is different, you're gonna have to get use to it.. Not saying that being a ****..

Swyped from my *Epic*

[G Tablet General] ByByIpad:
Just bought this lemon that I hope to make into lemonade.

I have 2 questions, are these normal or hardware defects?

On my screen I have a thin line that goes from the power switch to the home button. Is this a defective screen? Or is it an aid to let you know you're at the top of the screen and where your power and home buttons are located? When I am surfing at night, in the bed, with the lights off, this very thin line does come in handy. Just hoping it is not really a defective screen.

When I plug in the power connector into the DC in jack, it does not plug in flush. I can see about 1/8 inch of the metal sleeve. Is is normal? I had an Averatec laptop in the past and eventually the DC in jack would break, I have deja vu about this. Replacing the dc jack in would be an expensive repair down the road. China does have a problem with quality control.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet General] copc:
I have no line at the top.

I can see a bit of the metal on the connector when plugged in as well.
[G Tablet General] mmracing:
I don't see the line you are talking about on mine but I can verify that my power connector does stick out 1/8 of an inch from being flush.
[G Tablet General] P_6:
You have a defective LCD, return that sucker.

Same issue here with the power jack, luckily the battery life is a beast, so don't need to charge much.
[G Tablet General] RedSrt007:
A DC plug sticking out 1/8" is hardly a "lemon"....lol
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
For the line on the screen, I would recommend getting a flashlight app on the market, or perhaps a pixel app like "Dead Pixel Check Free". If the screen is bad, you'll see it best it the screen is one color.
[HD7 General] iRoleDolo:
I know this phone has a (BIG) update coming soon and its still in its development stages since its a new OS. But will there be swype available for this phone at anytime?
[HD7 General] gbbsoft:
I think MS will not pay for swype to Swipe Inc.

Only if MS will add ability to add foreign-keyboard-addins, you will be able to buy a Swipe.

So you should ask: "When MS will add foreign-keyboard-addins?"

:D
[HD7 General] PaullikesWINMO:
Why would anyone want to swipe? Bring on the dictation/voice recognition to type emails or texts and send them. Swipe reminds me of the Palm era of hand writing each letter for it to appear on the screen. I could see some use for it, but let's ask for something more modern for this device.
[HD7 General] iRoleDolo:
Thanks for responding!

I hear you 100% on that..its just something about swype that makes me want to have it..or atleast give it a try. (Probably because i never tried it before)

Also, Is this "Update" on the 15th of December Confirmed?
[HD7 General] phenixdragon:
I guess if people who want it should have the option for it but swype sucks.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
At the moment, I don't think there are any 3rd party keyboards allowed, though I do love swype on the hd2.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] steviecvr:
I have a Wildfire running the latest version of Cyanogen, and love everything about it. Except the status bar, I think it's... ugly:/. But when i look for custom ones or trying to edit the default one I can't find any help :confused:, can anyone please direct me in the right direction :).
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] a1exander:
Go to settings -> then CyanogenMod settings and then like theme or ui or something, dont remember. Somewhere there you can change the status bar to "black". Look around abit!
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] steviecvr:
thanks I've tried that, but the icons look a little funny, do you know where the XML file is located and ill try my hand at some editing?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tom_codon:
Hi all !

For all devices unlocked with ChevronWP7 Unlocker , we're can easy install custom ringtones or applications .XAP format via Application Deployment , but everytimes need open start menu --> Application Deployment then browser .xap to tool for install take too much times and almost make some in us crazy :)

That why i decided to write Tom XAP installer , basicly Tom XAP installer and Application Deployment are the same ( Alow install custom .xap to device and emulator windows phone 7 ) But Tom XAP installer a lot convenience , it's alow you install .xap with double click to file or simple just right click --> install xap

How to :

Download exe and put it somewhere in PC, run it , it will automatic add registry path of application and add menu , icon to .XAP files

​

Then just close it and now double click to custom ringtones , or any .xap format files , the Tom XAP installer will automatic open and give you some details ( App name , Version , Author , Size , Description of XAP ) then select where you will install xap ( device or emulator )

​

Press Install and wait it finish.

Notices :

1. Tom XAP installer Requires .NET 4.0 Framework and Windows Phone 7 SDK

2. If you install xap to device

- Please make sure your device was unlocked with ChevronWP7 Unlocker ( Here is guide how to unlock )

- Make sure your device was connected with PC and Zune lauched

- Make sure your device not in sleep mode

3. If you move Tom XAP installer.exe to other location in PC , you should run it again one time for registry again location of application

4. If you don't like this software , just run Tom XAP installer.exe and uncheck " Enable Tom XAP installer" it will uninstall all registry of Tom XAP installer in your PC

-Updated v1.2 2/7/2011 :

-Update support multiple xaps install

-Make right admin access

Video :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rORHjgsXmjc&hd=1

-Updated v1.1 1/9/2011 :

Fixed problems when install Games , now icons should works correctly !

For fix limit 10 .xap install to device , use new ChervonWP7 without limit xap install :

Cheers !

Good Work bro, nice to see u back again :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] WithinRafael:
What value does this have over the official one? :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hdubli:
you can create a folder of xap files on yr pc and just start clicking the xap files instead of xap deployer from sdk :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mkskeith@gmail.com:
Is t limited to only 7 installs still?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tom_codon:
Not yet , you can install all xap , not only 7

Incorrect, ALL unlocked phones are restricted to 10 xap deployments.

Ohh..any reason for limiting it to 10 ?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] walshieau:
It's a phone setting.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tom_codon:
run unlock again and it can install more i guess ? :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] WithinRafael:
No, doesn't work like that. You get 10. That's it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] thesecondsfade:
It's only a matter of time before we figure out a registry setting or a tweak that will allow more.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] baliles:
Is there a way for you to release a 2nd version of your utility that ONLY specifies Emulator by default, and points to a network path for the emulator, instead of assuming the hard file path? ie. instead of assuming c:\program files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs etc. it would either ask you for the path to XDELauncher.exe and accept network paths, or you could specify the network share path in a config file?

I'm wanting to put a XAPs on an internal site, and use a shared emulator on a network share to launch the app in the emulator when clicked on.

I'll donate if you can do it :-)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
I believe it is possible to uninstall one of the sideloaded apps and then install another. There is a max on the number of sideloaded apps installed on a device. If you reach that max, you should uninstall one of the other sideloaded apps.

Does your installer still require the developer deployment tools to function, or can I remove the deployment and continue using your installer?

Hi ..

I tried to install the native keyboard using Tom-XAP ..

First thing .. i get the warning to make sure the device unlocked ..

Then it says Install Finished ..

But i can't see anything! the Tom-XAP status show "installing" and it take long time like two hours and its still the same status "installing" .. and still can't see the keyboard in the device ..

Am using HTC HD7 official unlocked with OS 7.0.7390.0

Any clue?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] thealanshow:
Is there anyway to do the opposite of this app? That is to say, is there any way you can pull a XAP from your phone and download it to the computer? If it can be done this would be greatly appreciated...

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sensboston:
The app author needs to specify x86 platform target (in the project options->build) and rebuild the solution. x64 .NET doesn't have a Microsoft.SmartDevice.Connectivity assembly (it's exactly what your error message says).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jordanmills:
I'm getting the same problem as some of the other guys here. Computer is Windows 7 Enterprise x64. Phone is an un-updated LG Quantum (at least I don't have the nodo or whatever the new rollout is). I've run the chevron unlocker and locked/unlocked the phone several times. A few packages install with Tom's XAP Installer 1.2, but I think they're things I've already installed. Stuff that I've recently downloaded won't install - it gives me that "Error connection/-Please Make sure your phone was unlocked!" etc. Of course I have the SDK installed and I'm running unlocker and xap installer as a local admin. Any ideas?

I swear I used this on my XP machine at work, but now it says I need Windows 7 SDK, which requires Windows 7 or Vista. Am I crazy, or just confused? Can I sideload apps on XP, and if so, how?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] XmlNode:
For XP problem:

Just follow these steps:

Download the Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP Refresh

Extract the contents of the setup package by running vm_web.exe /x and choosing a path to extract to

Go to the folder you extracted to in step 2 and open the file baseline.dat in notepad

Look for the section named [gencomp7788]

Change the value InstallOnLHS from 1 to 0

Change the value InstallOnWinXP from 1 to 0

Save and close baseline.dat

Run setup.exe /web from the folder you extracted to in step 2

For those relocked phones:

Follow these steps Might be worth trying

Hi, I have a big problem.

I have the latest update of the system .7392 and when I try to install applications through XAP Installer (which was installed as administrator), especially games, they wont to be installed, it shows me connection error:

make sure that your Zune is running and your phone is unlocked.

I can install some applications but the others are impossible.

I have unlocked phone, Zune is running, phone is not in sleep mode.

since some xaps install and some don't, which xaps are you trying to install that fail?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jardan:
I get the error message with all xaps. If they install, besides getting the message, the are slow and buggy. I can't remember right now which don't install, but some don't install at all. Actually I can see the icon on my phone, they just don't start, I get a blank screen and then back to the app catalogue.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] munkeyphyst:
you can't name one xap that has given you a problem? What app is loading to black and then crashing back? It sounds like you are trying to install paid apps as xap and the DRM is causing fail.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jardan:
well, some of us have to work too, so they cannot remember all the apps they tried to installed and crashed. especially when they are not on their phones at that moment.

For example, touchxplorer crashes 99%. Kindle and SHCamera are slow like hell. And I am sorry, but I am not going to try all my apps right now to see which one crashes. kindle and SHCamera are the main I use, and touchxplorer is the one I would like to use.

Was that helpful for you?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] munkeyphyst:
