[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
The age distribution makes sense, you don't expect many college students to be paying for a smart phone. Even if they have one it's part of family plan and paid for by their parents. That is if they decided to buy an Android phone and not iPhone 4.

Now here's the kicker, if most people here are above 30, why does the majority of the member act like they are still 18; trolling and arguing with each other.

You'd be surprised. I'm 18 and I live in an apartment pay all my bills and I am a freshman in college. But then again that's not the most normal thing haha. I see lots of people with droids at school though.
[Vibrant General] j0hnZ:
I don't know where in the world parents actually pay for their kids phone while they are in college, then again I grew up poor so it may just be me.

Also, the answer to your question is really easy, the internet is my playground. This is where I go to unwind from being politically correct all damn day so I don't offend someone who hasn't lived in the real world. Probably those same people that had mommy and daddy pay for everything for them even while they are in college...

Good for you! :) Everyone at my university have iPhone or iPods, classroom are even outfitting with Macs. lol. The entire campus is a basically a big Apple Fanbase.

You did be surprised, parents do pay for their kids bill. Even if you aren't one of them who depends on parents, there are people who do.

As to your answer, according to the poll, you are surrounded by people who are older just like you, so you are not exactly talking/interacting with kids that still live in their mom's basement.

Haha Apple fanbase. I'll get flamed but, Apple does make good products. I love Android but I do also own an iPad and a Macbook Air... Lol.

Couldn't see myself with an iPhone though... But really I just hate the guts out of AT&T. Thieves. Either way, Nexus S is pulling me in.

Either way I love almost all platforms. Everything has it's ups and downs ;)
[Vibrant General] Obi_Kwiet:
The reason the age distribution is so limited is that the goal of this thread isn't specifically intended to determine a precise spread of user's ages. I'm more interested in lower ages because there is an unusually high amount of bickering and immaturity cropping up. I was thinking that it might have had to do with there being more young users, but now I'm not so sure. Perhaps there are a higher percentage of people here for the phone that don't have as much experience with online interaction.
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
No worries, I don't bias toward one platform or the other either. To be fair, I own 2 iPods and even the ZuneHD. I agreed, AT&T is way too expensive, we tried to switch to AT&T (to integrate the bill, we have AT&T DSL), and we discovered that it would cost us more than just staying with T-Mobile. On top of that, it is still with their cheapest 200 mb data plan. Needless to say, we end up staying with T-Mobile. :rolleyes:

[Vibrant General] Anderdroid:
Oh yes, I forgot about their prices.

I called them thieves because stupid me didn't write down the tracking number on the label that they gave me when I returned my phone. I assumed that they were honest. I also assumed that they had a database. Where they stored information. Such as labels that they give in the box.

****ers charged me 150$ etf after I had the phone returned. Also I overaged (without noticing, and not by much) and my total cost ended up being over 400$ for one month (20 days to be precise). And I didn't even get to keep the phone out of that. Stupid me. Was a damned Motorola Backflip lmao. First Android phone I had :p. That month of service was the worst I had. The download speeds were equivalent to what I could get on Cricket and the calls dropped 50% of the time. All this on 4 bars of 3g.

So I ran back to T-Mobile and then the Vibrant came out.

Nah! You're 30's can be the best. People actually respect you like you're a real grownup. Leverage that! They also don't necessarily expect you to have it all together like you supposedly should by your 40's.

that'll tell you how much space is free in your /system and /data partitions (and all the other mount points too)

Confirmed... I am having this problem as well after rooting device.
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
I just noticed the same today

Is there solution to this ?
[Nook Color General] peiziyu:
An obvious thing, but important. Your NC needs to be on and unlocked for it to recognize as external storage, but it only needs to be plugged in for adb access.

If this is already the case, try going into device management and uninstalling (but not deleting) the Android Phone or Android ADB Device or whatever the entry is called. Scan for changes again. It should show up as external storage now. If you need adb access again, you can simply install the driver using the usual method.

I had to repeat this once or twice, but my NC always shows up as external storage in Explorer now. I think this is what fixed it (maybe + a couple reboots)
[Nook Color General] lifeisfun:
When I go to device manager there is no Android Phone or Android ADB Device listed

The only strange thing is that under Portable devices I get I: drive with yellow triangle.

[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
So I want to customize my own shutdown animation. I am following this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=732311

I have 370 .png files (480x800) along with a .cfg in /system/media/video/shutdown. The only problem i seem to be having is that When i go to shutdown my phone, my first frame will come up, and the first 1-5 frames or so will play, and then it will just stop playing and my phone will just down. I know it has something to do with the .cfg file and how its written but i cant figure it out.

I know that by default the Vibrant is limited to 14 frames at shutdown, however i used the config file in the tutorial claims to remove that limit. That didnt work so i tried to edit it based on .cfg files that i saw. still didnt work.

Can anyone explain to me how to write this .cfg so that it plays my shutdown animation all the way through? thanks.

Dont tell me I posted in the wrong section please, I wasnt sure where to post so I followed the lead of the tutorial, which was under development.
[Vibrant General] zedgar:
I recently made a shutdown cfg file that had more than 14 images. I used the text 0123456789 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 . . . . It did work (but I eventually scrapped it in favor of a single image shutdown).

One thing you could do is grab the shutdown cfg of a custom ROM (I looked at axura 2.1) and see how it appears.
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
thats

exactly

how i rewrote mine earlier today, all damn 370 pngs, and i got the same symptoms.

i cant figure why its happening, im running Fusion1.1, but i know that your ROM/OS version doesnt affect shutdown animations.
[Vibrant General] bnielsen40:
Hey TopShelf...how is it that you have enough room on your system partition for a shutdown animation with 300+ images? I am trying to create one with 150 and the folder is 40mb, but I only have around 30mb free on the vibrant.

Do you simply have more free space, or are my images too big? (I made the png's 480x800)

Also, is there a way to control the speed the images are shown? I thought to cut down the amount of fps to get my shutdown folder down to a smaller size, but that just makes the animation fly by.

Any advice would be appreciated!
[Vibrant General] zedgar:
Could it be an issue with the zip? My experience is that it is very quirky. In root explorer, it kept showing old shutdown_x.pngs as thumbnails and sometimes the animation would freeze. I had to try it a couple of times before it took.

But mine was more of a slideshow than animation and I didn't have 340 shots.

To delay the speed, could you just have the cfg repeat a png? 12333334444...?
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
You can avoid the old images showing up simply by deleteing the old shutdown further altogether BEFORE replacing it with the new one, instead of just dropping the new one while the old one is still in place and letting it automatically replace.

it just wont seem to play past the first 1-5 frames. Im honestly just about to give up
[Vibrant General] Tonicacid:
I was testing this all day yesterday I downloaded a working shutdown and added my own files edited the cfg file and samething happened to me. I tried using the images that came in the file and just editing them in photoshop without editing the cfg. Works like a charm. The only issue I have is making my own. I can edit others images but can't make my own or edit the cfg file.
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
thanks for looking into this, i appreciate your efforts.....ive hit a wall, i cant think of anything else to do/try....if anyone find anything, please let me know, and i will do likewise
[Vibrant General] Relikk356:
I started to work on one months ago, it was around 60 frames and it worked just fine. When I get home i will upload it so you can play with it if you want? Still plan on finishing it but have been focusing on finals and other things.

370? Maybe there is a limitation to the amount of frames, or images you can use.

Here's the old thread. The download link is dead.

[Vibrant General] byost83:
Here's what I did. I don't know if this IS what caused it....or a huge coincidence. But I too was having the same problem with 86 .PNG files it would play about 14. When I looked at the properties of my shutdown folder I created in windows, it was checked as "read only" so, for the hell of it, I un checked it. Put it back in my SD, then into the shutdown folder via root file manager and it worked! Like I said.....I can't say for sure this had anything to do with it working, but its worth a try. I haven't tried another one mainly because I don't want it to not work again! Haha! Good luck.
[Vibrant General] Tonicacid:
I will try this when I get home. If this is the problem im going to feel like an idiot.
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
i just checked from my remote desktop client, my shutdown folder IS read-only. im going to uncheck it and see what happens.
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
didnt solve anything
[Vibrant General] Tonicacid:
Damn...
[Vibrant General] Relikk356:
Sorry completely forgot about this, lol. Here is the rar, just take the cfg out of it.

Did you try using your mouse with your left hand only? If you click the left mouse button three times and spin at least once in your chair the CFG will work. At least that's what I had to do.

LOL, I kid!!!

[Windows Phone 7 General] Tone_:
So just how is Windows Phone 7 doing, and what is next in Microsoft’s effort to get back into the phone game?

In the hot seat next at D: Dive Into Mobile is Joe Belfiore, one of the Microsoft VPs in charge of the company’s phone effort. We’ll see what he has to say on these and other topics, including a planned January update that would bring copy and paste, among other things

That's not the Walt I know when he is interviewing Steve Jobs. :p
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
what a douchebag

I mean he is! Belfore was surprisingly calm he could've been eric lin in this interview

http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTA3MjU0MTYw.html
[Windows Phone 7 General] Quicksilver4648:
Yeah, I read this over at Engadget yesterday. The Walt guy kind of being a douche. Only focusing on the negatives of WP7. Don't get me wrong, Android and iOS are farther along but you have to realize WP7 has only been out in the market for just over a month. And don't forget, WP7 went gold in September so there could easily be a major update in Feb. as that would have been 5 months post going Gold. Belfiore seemed to stay calm and answered the questions. Though I think it would have been better if he just said "Are you mad that Microsoft isn't Apple or Google?"
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
He was also quite disrespecting of the RIM official as well. I couldn't believe what I was reading when I found this on Engadget.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
What I don't understand is why are they making a big deal out of the old kernel? I mean, MS's kernel is solid and better than any other...it just happens to be old. That just means MS was ahead of the pack that much longer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tomhierl:
It can hardly be better than the Linux kernel...

And while Walt is a douche, Belfiore didn't exactly do well there. Apparently Microsoft doesn't have a plan for catching up and this is the real issue here!

Belfiore essentially admitted that they would never catch up with Android, which is quite pathetic on Microsoft's part if you ask me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tone_:
I think you are putting words in his mouth - he said he didn't know how long it would take create that sort of volume - longer than a couple of months possibly a couple of years.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Android uses a heavily modifies kernel and there are many things nt does better than linux.
