[Nook Color General] big.t_03:
I haven't seen any "update" messages on mine. I double-checked and my NC is still running version 1.0.0. My wifi has been on for the past couple days (including all night last night) and I've seen nothing suggesting a firmware update.

Maybe I'm lucky. Looks like B&N may be planning to force a firmware update soon. It'd be nice if they gave us the option to decline it (they'll probably strip in-Store features without the most current version, but I've read here that rooting does away with in-Store features anyway).

There's another thread over in NC Android Dev where someone got a firmware update scare. Looks like a false-positive, but it's something to keep us on our toes.
[Nook Color General] huntjp123:
Hmm no updates here either..
[Nook Color General] Admiralvic:
nothing...
[Nook Color General] Sirchuk:
I remember reading that someone else got an Update Available notification in the huge thread that started this forum. I think they said they did a system restore to factory and it allowed them to re-root it, but I don't recall if it had a version number in it. Same thing happened, nobody knew what was going on.

Regardless, we should eliminate the ability for B&N to apply automatic updates at will.
[Nook Color General] gojeda:
After un-rooting and resetting back to factory fresh settings, the Nook DID download an update, version 1.0.0.0. The notice appeared in the notification area.

The good news is that I am still able to root using the nooter method.
[Nook Color General] ZeroSX:
That's not an update, it's an improper notification. It hasn't been *updated* to anything, since that's what it came with stock. It's just the nook's way of saying it's been reset to defaults.
[Nook Color General] PJE66:
Hopefully the update is not rolling out...

...but if it is I hope it hits my NC after this weekend when I have to take my son from the USA to the UK! Two flights and two airports without Angry Birds to keep him happy would be unpleasant.
[Nook Color General] pulser_g2:
Hmmm...

OTAcerts.zip would be my usual suggestion, for this kind of thing.

If anyone gets the nook with the update, try and grab the URL of the update via logcat.

Failing that, someone with the update might need to try things to get it rooted :) RageAgainstTheCage, anyone?

I don't know what you specifically need for the nook to let you sideload etc, but RageAgainstTheCage would make sense to work and get at least shell root.

Hello, I'm unsure if the current mod would work with the AOSP theme, and I didn't want to break anything trying heh but I was wondering if we could get one of these made up for this theme?

No rush or anything but if this showed up someday I would greatly appreciate it :D

[Captivate Accessories] mr. grieves:
I am looking to get the slimmest case possible for my Captivate. From the research I have done so far it looks like the BodyGlove TPU or the Innocase II Surface might be the best options. Can anyone who has some experience with these cases comment on how much bulk they add to the phone?

Thanks.

The cheap Ebay/Amazon silicone rubber cases are probably the thinnest.
[Captivate Accessories] sublimaze:
What's wrong with a skin?
[Captivate Accessories] K-mart Shopper:
I use the Amzer Luxe Argyle style case. It's thinner than the Bodyglove. Only problem is the power button is a bit harder to push through the skin.
[Captivate Accessories] mr. grieves:
Hmmm... I don't think those are very thin. In fact, from the very first post in the thread you you link to: "The case is pretty thick".
[Captivate Accessories] mr. grieves:
I considered it, but I think I want a bit of impact protection. I will likely skin it underneath the case so I can use it without as well.
[Captivate Accessories] mfpmax:
Yeah I was going by my previous silicone cases and I just got my Body Glove and that case in the mail and it is thicker than the Body Glove.
[Captivate Accessories] peachpuff:
Nope those are the thickest, the argyle one is the thinnest.

I can tell you this case is worth buying. Fits perfectly. Feels good on your hand.
[Captivate Accessories] 88EVGAFTW:
Its like the body glove right? like just slide it in?
[Captivate Accessories] ManuWKK89:
Just slide it in :) I just ordered the body glove one for ten bucks off eBay. Should be here ina few days

no bulk no case no nothing. except film,
[Captivate Accessories] SkateEmerica987:
The Body Glove Mirage has been working great for me so far. Its quite thin
[Captivate Accessories] 88EVGAFTW:
I just got my argyle case off ebay in the mail. I am thoroughly impressed in the quality and fit, very well worth it for the $8.53 I paid. I like it more than my body glove TPU case.

Hey guys since nobody has posted a true review of the new Trident Cyclops case for the vibrant yet, I thought I'd take the liberty of making one myself. I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to leave any comments or opinions on the case you have below.

-bobofosho123
[Vibrant Accessories] Alien1099:
I have one of these sitting in the box that I ordered and recently received. I was planning on using it, but then it arrived and I saw how much thicker and wider it made the phone and it's kinda turned me off. I am probably going to return it. I also ordered the recently released Seidio Innocase for the Vibrant though and it should be here tomorrow. It looks to be a bit closer to what I want out of a case (minimal bulk added), though at the cost of less protection like the Cyclops provides.

I don't know. I might consider keeping it and switching to it for times when I may want the extra protection, and use the Seidio for a majority of the time.
[Vibrant Accessories] ColorNapkin:
Oh man nice review. I just can't hide the beauty of my Vibrant :(

The built-in screen protector I don't like but it's a ncie feature.

And that's not red, bobo, that's pink.

You forgot to show us how to screen responds with the screen protector that comes wit the phone.
[Vibrant Accessories] ZX3ZX4:
Very helpful review. It's hard to imagine damaging the phone with that level of "rugged-ization." However, I'm not sure that I would want to have that amount of additional bulk for everyday use.
[Vibrant Accessories] irtexas34:
It's pretty responsive in terms of using it. But the only issue that I have with the case is that it can be a pain at time to bring down the notification from the top of the screen. At the end of the day it's really not too big of a deal and I don't mind the extra bulk if my phone is safe.
[Vibrant Accessories] Kwaii49:
I love the vid cuz he was honest. But i cant deal with the bulk and the rugged look. That's why i went with the Aegis. It's a lot more sleeker and actually looks good. Also my density is set pretty low and i need easy access to my notification bar. Thanks for the video.
[Vibrant Accessories] xXcybersniperXx:
I really love this case :D i got mine in blue and i made some modifications to the case ;) it took out the screen protector so i could actually use it and removed the cam cover cuz it messed with quality, all in all it's amazing i can actually throw it at the ground repeatably and it wont die :D
[Vibrant Accessories] burntrat:
I also had to make some modifications to my Cyclops case. I sanded down near the ports a little bit so I can get my nails in deeper to open up the usb and headset tabs. I removed the main screen protector and may also have to remove the camera screen protector because it causes glare in video recordings. But with my luck soon after I remove it, something is going to scratch my camera lens. What I really like about this case is that it makes the phone completely level. They added another hump near the top to even out the bottom hump. I don't think I've seen another case do that yet. It adds a good amount of bulk/grip to the phone. When the phone is naked, it feels like I'm talking on a playing card. Only thing I really don't like about it is that the silicone outer part comes off too easily at times. I wish they made the grooves deeper or something so it locks into place better. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with my Trident Cyclops case.
[Vibrant Accessories] bullittstang95:
My girlfriend and I have had this case on our vibrants since a week after we bought them. We love them, the only complaint we have ever had was that sometimes it can be difficult to get the rubber piece out of the charger port and headphone jack. The company now makes a 2800mah battery and slightly bigger case for the vibrant. I am debating on ordering 2 of those. Hope this helps

[Epic 4G General] abrcrmdl23:
Does anyone have or know where I can get a kernal for the new froyo 2.2.1 update for the epic that alows overclocking and has a 600 mhz step in it? I accidentely flashed a old version for 2.1 and now my phone wont boot.
[Epic 4G General] NYYFan325:
There are no custom kernels for 2.2 yet. The easiest fix would be to use ODIN and flash the 2.2 TAR file
[Epic 4G General] abrcrmdl23:
would that wipe my phone?
[Epic 4G General] tyl3rdurden:
Unfortunately it would.
[Epic 4G General] NYYFan325:
Yep, but you did remember to back up right...

Otherwise I do believe if you flash the ACS deodex'd ROM that flashes the kernel as well... and would leave your data intact

Hey,

Got a vibrant. Is there anyway to use my xbox 360(through wireless perhaps) as like a wireless display for my phone? Obviously displaying it on a tv/monitor. I can plug in cables to my phone but it would be so much easier if it was wireless.

Web browsing, etc would be pretty tight.

Ok i know mmaaannny people.are thinking abour this everyday and i wantvto hear from you guys.

Do you think any abdroid.phone will run ios?, or will it forever be a lost cause?

I mean seriously i love iso so much i bought an iphone 4 just so i could use it. I now jave 2 phones when i know if lots of our very very very smart devs could work together and finish this in no time.

And if anyone successfully ports this, i will sell my iphone and donate $500 instantly.

Thanks for reading and post wat you think about this.
[General Questions and Answers] yusisushi:
I would love IOS on my android!

i think its a good idea that the devs should work togheter and bring IOS to our android phones
[General Questions and Answers] Cuppeerr:
I don't think so just because it's closed source and driver issues and other stuff. But I would probably donate $500 also haha i'd love it.
[General Questions and Answers] ersqueda:
They're trying. Just Google "iEmu Project". I would post a link, but I'm a "new" user. Haha.

But I do love my iOs as well and would love my T Mobile Galaxy S2 to run iOs.
[General Questions and Answers] h2vat:
I think it's impossible to emulate iOS on a other Device which is not from Apple, because iOs isn't Open Source.
[General Questions and Answers] Pietrone94:
me was interested too...i watched a video of an android phone running ios, but i don't know if it was real...in fact there are rom(miui)which are very similar to ios. if you want ios because you like icons,graphic...so flash a miui rom which is very very similar to ios...but if you want ios for using ios apps,games...now you can't but i hope someone solves this thing because it will be amazing use ios apps on android!!
[General Questions and Answers] Mardon:
IOS is not open source and apple wont allow it by license

Even when someone ports it for any Android decice its illegal.

So Mod please close this thread please
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Have to agree. As even if someone did port it which would have to be done by rewritting the os drivers from the ground up. Apple would issue a C&D order followed by a lawsuite.

hey i have samsung galaxy s i9000m and also the htc desire z...i was wondering is it possible for me to port Swype onto the desire z?....i think in theory its possible correct?..anyonegive me some tips on how to accomplish this?
[G2 and Desire Z General] aznsnake666:
possible yea but swype the company may have a problem with that because that device isnt licensed to have swype.
[G2 and Desire Z General] cparekh:
You could try installing the swpye.apk from your Vibrant into /system/app as well as putting the libSwypeCore.so into your /system/lib directory. Don't know if the library would work though, but those are the two files you need to make Swype work on the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] aznsnake666:
you also need to change something in the Lib, some people had issues even those were pushed to the device and had to change the listed device to the name of the device
[Epic 4G General] Muckrak3r:
Okay, I'm sure a bunch of people have been having problems with their froyo upgrades... But I have had nothing short of an amazing day with my first 24 hours of Froyo on the Epic. So I am making this thread so we can highlight the POSITIVE changes that froyo has brought us Epic owners.

I have discovered a few cool things that Froyo brings, and I am sure there are more. Let's get a list compiled of all the positives:

What I have discovered so far:

1) Battery life ( see attached photo) - it is so much better than 2.1. I can't believe it's the same phone, battery!

2) The screen rotates left or right now into landscape mode. I was always astonished on 2.1 that it didn't do that.

3) Apps 2 SD. Long talked about, but awesome when it's finally here. I have a bunch of apps and I have 390Mb open on my phone. My wife has 412Mb open on her Epic. #4 is helped by this

4) The phone runs smoother. Of course Linpack scores of 13.92 prove it, but I haven't had any screen lag or lag when opening the app drawer or in typical use the way my Epic got laggy on 2.1 before. Apps 2 SD definitely helps clear up phone memory for every day use.

5) Colorized menus. It may seem trivial, but now I realize just how drab the menus were previously. The icons 'pop' with the color added to them.

6) Separate Sound and Display options in the settings menu.

7) Flash. 'nuf said on that one! Huge improvement over 2.1.

8) Improved Gmail and Youtube.

*the rest will be either new finds by me, or contributions w/ credit.

9) Pinch whatever home screen you are on to reveal all home screens. (thanks styckx)

10) I just discovered that we finally have copy/paste options of text that WE choose! When you are in a field where you have been typing and you click in that field, you get a blue slider button. You can slide that button to whatever starting point you want in your text, and then you can choose to edit and you can highlight, copy, paste, etc only the portions of text you want, not just a copy all option like before! This is a huge improvement over 2.1. Text select was the only thing I missed from my Blackberry, and now we have that too. Not in all situations, but at least it makes editing your current text so much easier.

11) I read it somewhere else before, but just verified it works. If you swipe to the right on a contact in your messages list, it automatically calls them. If you swipe to the left, it automatically starts you up for a text reply. Genius!

12) Robust stock audio player with tons more features. (thanks again styckx)

Okay, I know I am missing things that even I have already discovered and don't remember. 2.2 seems a lot more than a .x update. It's not just 1 or 2 minor tweaks like we have seen previously. Please post anything you have noticed about Froyo that adds to the Epic experience!

* I know there are some things about it people don't like. I am unable to swipe on the notification bar to increase/decrease brightness. I really enjoyed that feature. Feel free to post what you don't like about Froyo also. But I would like to concentrate on tips, tricks, improvements, etc. that Froyo has brought us!
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Pinch your home screen
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
As great as froyo is, there are a lot of probs with it.

Random services keep appearing.

Samsung widgets disappear occasionally

Wifi not working at times (not sure if that's my connection)

Idk, I'm just curious, what measures are you taking on battery life?
[Epic 4G General] SubnetMask:
About all the bad I've noticed with the latest DK28 build is the auto-rotate is REALLY slow, and it doesn't seem to auto-rotate when on the main screen (only seems to rotate when I am in the "settings" menu). I had some odd issues with DK17 where it didn't like to delete messages from my Activesync accoutn that appears to be fixed in DK28.
[Epic 4G General] Muckrak3r:
that's so great! adding to OP

I have been on wi-fi since last night. Not a single issue for me regarding that. Yet. So it may be your wi-fi.

As far as battery goes, I am straight stock everything, no battery juice defender sipper type apps or anything. Just rooted, with no Sprint apps. Nothing special.

I am getting the auto-rotate to work both ways on the home screens, and it takes maybe .2 seconds to do it. Maybe try and wipe and re-flash? Just a suggestion.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
I am getting lag at random times. Sometimes the phone will just freeze for like 30 seconds as launcherpro slowly crashes. Rotation is slow, 5 seconds i mean come on. Wifi has been weirdish, might have fixed itself. So far, no where NEAR as smooth as stock DI18. Eclair on the epic was AMAZINGLY smooth and polished.

I like the new features, but there is no way that DK28 is ready for primetime. They need to do a lot of bug fixing on this to make it anywhere near as smooth as other phones running 2.2 that I have seen.

Also, I installed it correctly and several different ways, so its not a bad flash. I am currently running Stock DK28 with root and clockworkmod that was ODIN flashed from stock DI18 which I ODIN flashed. GPS is working.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
One thing I really like a lot is the new Audio player. EQ, Visualizer, audio "effects", much better navigating of albums and artists.

I mean, I own PowerAmp which is THE BEST audio player period, but the new default audio player is leaps and bounds better than the old one and is fantastic for default (free).
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Agreed. The features are all here. Now it just needs to be polished and smoothed out like the original Eclair builds were.
[Epic 4G General] fczeuner:
Bluetooth dialing is busted. Media hub wants to upgrade, but there is no upgrade. On the plus, my gps works now. I don't care what anyone says. This is a beta for hardware level.4 phone to test. I think we will see a newer release pushed to our phones.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
I'm just going to keep it. It's stable and usable enough until the real (and hopefully more refined and stable) release is sent.

I'm sick of flashing and restocking my phone. I'm thinking a upgrade from DK28 to the real release won't require the dreaded WIPE WIPE WIPE and a rube goldberg puzzle to get the GPS to work. :)

If for some stupid, company killing reason DK28 as it stands now really is going to be the official release, I will go back to 2.1 and stay there. We'll see.
[Epic 4G General] AndroidIsEpic:
Hey OP you might want to try that again because I'm on froyo and can still increase/decrease the brightness using the notification slide-bar technique. The bar may hide but if you move your finger left or right even when its already gone you should see the brightness change.
[Epic 4G General] tpma4life:
Mine doesn't change orientation either unless I'm in a program. If I'm in a program, it's instant pretty much..on the homescreen I've waited and the only way I can get it to change is by flipping open my keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] shellee:
All of this is overshadowed by my sd not working after the update there by rendering most apps useless
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
Seems to be working good for me so far. The only thing annoying thus far is the lag in bringing it from sleep with the power button. There's a second or 2 delay before the screen comes on after you hit power. In 2.1 it was nearly instantaneous.
[Epic 4G General] mikeschevelle:
Im not getting it to rotate to the right,

Running the loaded Syndicate ROM
[Epic 4G General] RTbar:
doesn't work for me either
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:
There is no Syndicate rom for DK28.
[Epic 4G General] gullzway:
Thanks for the Post! Found some things I wasn't aware of.

I'm on this Stock Froyo Rom(DK17) and everything I've tried is working great. Notification Bar swipe for brightness works as well as Media Hub.

Although many great reports.. and some not so..

This is obviously NOT the final release. lets remember that..

It is so close now and will be great. (or better at least)

I myself tested on 3 diff phones, found recurring and non- recurring defects which point to the fact that this particular release in its entirety wont be pushed OTA to the masses.. it cant. wont handle the endless differences out in the wild..

And to be expected.. Exactly the reason why upgrades take time.
[HD2 General] lil_italy:
i made friends with a guy in melbourne AU off the htc forum and he said he can get me a broken for parts t9193 cheap.

would just swapping out the internal radio antenna work for getting AT&Ts 850mhz freq or is this just a waste of time?

i just rather spend $10 for the broke fone over the $500 shipped he wants for his telstra version, which is i feel a great price.
[HD2 General] thebobantor:
I would think yes, but the chip may be perminet, so switching the mainboard might work. I too would be intersted in this. off topick, but have you ever connected to 3g, I did for about a few seconds
