you CAN port ios, ubuntu, or winmo to the droid, but someone has to step up and do it. I meant there is an ios clone for the mytouch 3g, and then theres a droid that was home built that runs winmo 6.5, and someone got ubuntu on the nexus. all I'm saying is that it is possible if we have a dedicated dev

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwg8t7:
So here's the deal. My screen bezel began to loosen a bit, so I restored the phone and took it into the sprint store to get it replaced through insurance. They proceeded to tell me that having the screen bezel clips break was a "cosmetic problem" and that would not be covered by insurance. If you don't know what I am talking about, there is a gap between the chrome bar and the gray plastic on the side of the phone. It is big enough to see the backlight from the screen, and I repeat "cosmetic". The tech decided it would be a good idea to just crank the torx screws as tight as can be, yet that didn't solve the issue. Anyone have any ideas on how I can actually get a replacement phone? The guy made a note on the account that I was having that problem so that he could notify me of another returned hero with a decent top, so I don't think going to another store will work.

Any common problems? ;) Can overclock till meltdown?
[HD2 General] cilikekko:
Hi guys my name is Francesco and I come from italy.I'm posting here because there isn't a so focused forum in italy like this

I scuse my self for the english but I hope to recive some answer.

I have got an Htc HD2 but in this days the mobile is MAD.

Every time that i try to open an heavy application like an HD VIDEO...the phone crashes and reboot. If i use the mobile with normal application like ''calling, sms, internet navigation, mp3 it doesn't reboot.

I've tried with hard reset and soft but the problem remain.Actually there is last firmware 3.14...and is all original no ''cooked rom''.

I'm thinking about this problem...Could be a battery problem?

For example when the cpu is in full load the battery less voltage...But i have no see any anomaly about usage battery.

Now i can't belive about this situation..I hope something help me!.....

Please write in elementary english if it is possible...

THANK YOU GUY.A KISS FROM ITALYYYY

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreancanuck:
It's a very widespread problem. For me, flashing to 2.2 has made the problems disappear. Try flashing other ROMs. If that doesn't prevent it, flash back to stock and tell AT&T you have shutdown problems. If you don't feel like it, try "Keep captivate alive" or something from the market.

Hm. I think my phone shutting down is both a loose battery issue and hardware problem. I'll flash back to stock and see.

[G Tablet General] slopokdave:
So I've "rented" a g-tab. I normally wouldn't do this, but being the geek I am, and having no previous experience with actual use of a Tablet (who has? Besides iPad owners....), I picked up a g-tab with every intention of returning it.

Sears offers 30 days, no restocking fee so what do I have to lose? Well first of all, more questions as to is this something I actually need and can use. I've got an Evo, which is plenty big to me for a cell phone. However at home, I don't have a laptop except my work Dell (Slooooooooooow) and my wife's 17" Dell (huuuuuuuuuuge). So the tablet was mainly to give me a more pleasant internet experience at home, with use of all my Android apps at the same time.

I can say that after only a day of use, it definitely fits that need. I like the formfactor, the 10" is perfect for website browsing w/o the need to zoom. The hardware is quick, I've experienced (actually) no crashes. All the software I've tried has worked, except I still am missing a few apps in the market here and there. Strange.

So on to the screen.... my god is it really bad if you aren't looking directly at it. However, at home, that is the only time I would be using it; on the couch, looking directly at it. Any other use, such as right now sitting at my desk at work I have to nearly lean over it for me to feel like I'm seeing an accurate picture. It sure is great for privacy reasons, no one is going to be able to see what you are looking at over your shoulder. :rolleyes:

Given the 30 day return policy, as of now I am planning on taking it back. However it surely has won more respect from me than I thought it would. (Thanks to the Dev Support @ XDA of course). If the screen weren't so bad? It would be a 100000% keeper. It may still win me over, but for now there are many other tablets coming out that could be worthy. As long as they boast similar hardware specs, memory and GPU/CPU wise, and have better screen technology, I would be very pleased with any of them given they are the 10" form factor.

I was previously looking at the 7", Samsung Tab; which from playing with in the store is very very nice and everything appears to just *work*. However I just don't see myself going to 7" when I can see the benefits of 10". If I needed something portable, that'd be the exception. Jobs was not accurate at all in his statement on the smaller form factor tablet, there is definitely a use/need for it.
[G Tablet General] kevin24lg:
This may be a little funny, but...flip it upside down. The screen is perfectly visible when upside down. As many other have said, Viewsonic seem to have installed the lcd screen the wrong way. I wonder how difficult it would be to correct this..
[G Tablet General] slopokdave:
I noticed this. Hardly a workaround though as then the buttons do not feel as natural where they are, and I have hit the power button on error a few times.

Ugh.. :D

it didn't work for me on 2.1, figured 2.2 would fix it. nope.

it sees my homegroup and my computer but then it just says folder empty when i open it.

ive set many folders and files to be shared to "everyone" homegroup and directly to the device and it still never sees them.

im running windows 7
[Gen8 General] LoSBoL:
Try using es file explorer, that ussualy does the trick.

Does not work for the build in video and music app, but it's a workaround to get descent file sharing till Archos fixes the smb issue.
[Gen8 General] shrtrider:
I used es explorer to navigate to an SMB via IP and since then it has shown up in the Archos file explorer (sometimes it requires a refresh).
[Gen8 General] e4xda:
I had a ton of trouble getting my 101 to see shares on my Win7 machine. I have since moved all of my shared data to my Ubuntu machine and I'm able to see everything, every time through any app on the 101 (files, video, etc).

I've not found Win7 to share very nicely with anything that's not M$. Just my personal experience.
[Gen8 General] BGMArchos:
I'm on firmware 2.0.54 / Android 2.2 Update 1 and what is working for me is:

Maintenance of existing SMB Information: Settings -> Wireless & Network -> Shared Folders Setting" This provides a list of known SMB entries and their security information (e.g. username and password).

Creating: While I know some people used the EStrong ES File Explorer, I have been using the "Files" application that came with the tablet to locate the SMB entry. Once I create it, I maintain it as I mention above.

As for the EStrong ES File Explorer, I've been using it for local files, but after reading the entries in this thread will look at using it for LAN, also.

Also mkv is working but you might have AC3 sound in there and that's not supported without an additional plugin.
[Gen8 General] Cthugha:
I also have this problem. Can see and browse all (Windows) SMB shares using ES File Explorer. Archos Files app can't find any SMB servers...

ES File Explorer can't stream video from the shares :s Can the Files app do that? (I can't remember if that worked before Froyo...)

Using Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. SMB streaming works perfectly to my HTPC (running XBMC) and my TViX box.
[Gen8 General] Frelix:
Same form me.

With Androod 2.1:

SMB (from XP and Linux) worked with the standard explorer. Streaming works.

ES Explorer not tested.

With Android 2.2:

Shares on XP no longer listed in the standard explorer.

Shares from a Linux based device (Dreambox) are still listed. Streaming works.

Using ES Explorer, XP shares can be accessed, but streaming does not work with ES Explorer.

I seem to have read somewhere that sharing drive root doesn't work. That's the way I traditionally share my internal files.

I set up a few sub directory shares \Video, \Photos, etc, refreshed and after authenticating, can see and stream using built in files app. couldn't before with this machine.

using XP Pro as server. works in video program, too.

[Gen8 General] jdukedrum:
So frustrating, largely because this was a key feature that attracted me to the Archos, and because it worked SO WELL before the "update."

I can browse the shared folders of my Windows Home Server or Win7 desktop just fine with ES, and in the Archos File explorer I can see the machine names in the workgroup, but clicking the machine name gives me "folder is empty" every time. even after browsing the shares with ES, the Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Shared Folder Settings is blank - I've never seen a profile there.

Anybody have any suggestions?
[Gen8 General] agentdr8:
I got tired of futzing with smb and just switched to upnp, which seems to work perfectly on 2.2.1 on my A70. And I have the added bonus of being able to stream any format, since the renderer I'm using is PS3 Media Server (similar to TVersity). It also supports subtitles :D
[Gen8 General] digibucc:
see for me it's the opposite. well- I tried smb first, but it wasn't working/ so i tried upnp, and it

can't list folder content" so i screwed with smb and got it working great.

i had to turn off password protected sharing, with all other sharing options on (except streaming)

and in local security settings i allowed it to use blank passwords , not just on local machines.

and last i had to set the permissions of the drive to allow everyone read access(i gave full control)...

now it works great, streams all my vids. can't transcode obviously but that's alrite. haven't needed to yet.
[Gen8 General] OminousE:
I've gave up on SMB until next firmware update.

I'm using UPNP for video/audio sharing now.

I've tried xbms but couldn't browse files on A70, than I've tried Wild Media Server (UPnP, DLNA, HTTP), couldn't transcode all my media files... than I've tried ps3 and bunch other upnp media servers and almost gave up on that too

than i've tried windows media center, than added using media player my files... started sharing... and now i'm able to browse folders and see all my files (media)

I'm waiting on SMB ;)

Also, cajl posted on his forum some news on new firmware. NTFS 1.5TB drive attached to his A70, announced ext3 support, overall performance improve, bluetooth gps support natively...
[Gen8 General] strongergravity:
New firmware came out today. I hope it works. I'm waiting for my replacement A70 to show Monday so I can try it out.
[Gen8 General] blazingwolf:
It works. :)
[Gen8 General] Cthugha:
Latest firmware fixed my problems :) Now I can access my protected shares and it remembers the username/password.

Streaming SD-video works great over my wireless (802.11n) network. 720p h.264 AC3 videos *almost* works, but it sometimes stutters a bit... Also, subtitles work.
[Gen8 General] equalness:
I had the same problem andthe solution was that I had to create a password user on windows 7,did not have password before.
[Gen8 General] lbhocky19:
i can tell smb is at least working.

but it wont let me login with the update still.

i have my homegroup settings in win 7 set to turn off password protected sharing

also in upnp some of my files that are fine still say file is damaged or incomplete
[Gen8 General] OminousE:
I've managed to access SMB on vmware machine (XP), W7 is not working for me.

I see my W7 machine using files app, enter user/pass.... and nothing :P

XP machine was easy to access, but... I couldn't access shares on XP laptop :D

[Captivate General] apjacobs87:
hey all. im about to purchase a captivate and it will be my first smart phone. i am curious if you all recommend getting the big or small data plan. i have a lot of access to wifi and on my current phone which has the unlimited data plan (not a smart phone tho) i have never gone over 200 MB and one of my family members who has an iphone has only gone over 3 times in the last 12 months. anyways, i was curious what you all had to say about it. thanks!
[Captivate General] 88EVGAFTW:
I have the 2GB plan since I use a radio app everyday for 3-4 hours. That rashes a lot of data and also have facebook, tapatalk, and both emails updating all day long. I went over the 200MB once but that was before I started using radio and pandora.

[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
if you want to keep your unlimited plan, you can do so.
[Captivate General] veive:
If you are careful about your use when you aren't on wifi the 200meg plan should work just fine.
[Captivate General] Dungeon47:
This. But make sure you call them every 2 weeks for a couple of months and check that the "grandfathered unlimited data plan" is still active.
[Captivate General] polarbee:
Apparently some people have reported problems keeping an unlimited plan if it was of the "MediaMax" variety. I had a smartphone unlimited plan and she didn't even bother asking me if I wanted to keep it; she just said, "Oh, you'll be wanting to keep this" and left it in place. :)
[Captivate General] justmde:
the stock phone does not come with a way to turn off data.
[Captivate General] cbasse:
Does the 2GB plan really let you use that much streaming? I've been thinking of switching from the 200MB plan, but I'm not sure how much more I'd really get out of it.
[Captivate General] Nerz:
I have the 200mb plan and if I had a choice due to money constraints right now, I wouldn't have any. Since I do all my app downloading and video watching on wifi, I have only gone over once. I use it on stuff that doesn't user much data such as xda app, viewing basic web, and email. Of course I always use #data* to check my usage.
[Captivate General] devadvance:
just keep the unlimited data plan. i have $15/month data unlimited for "basic phones" because i always buy unlocked phones. works with every phone i've had, captivate included.
[Captivate General] xredjokerx:
keep the plan. have you ever used the tether function? I've hit 5gbs in a month using tethering when i was housesitting for a friend of mine =X

[Captivate General] z28james:
I have wifi at work and at home and so I usually use around 150MB of 200MB. I also have a sprint HTC Mogul active on boost mobile paygo which allows unlimited 3g data for 3.33 a month which I use for all of my mobile hot spot/streaming radio needs. It basically has a permanent home in my car which I use instead of the local radio stations.
[Captivate General] Sellitus:
I know a lot of you guys use only around 200 megs, but I guess I'm lucky I'm on the older data plans because I use around 5 gigs a month of data. I don't stream music everyday or anything but I use my phone's 3G a lot like a normal computer so I use a lot of data when downloading whatever I'm downloading.
[Captivate General] polarbee:
I tether my phone a lot and typically use upwards of 5GB per month. My husband on the other hand has the same phone and almost never even reaches 200MB thanks to the wireless at his work.

[Captivate General] SULL3N:
I've been hitting about 10gbs a month for the last 3 months (pandora, streaming tv, tethering for BlackOps) and now ATT recently decided to change my mediamax account to 2gb datapro without my consent. They expect me to pay the overage charges even though i was never informed of the change and would never agree to it. Im so outraged right now that if they dont give me back my "grandfather data plan" which i've had consistently for 5+ years. Im going to switch to Verizon, my buddy tells me they have no data cap plus they got better service. We'll see if ATT honors a loyal customer or loses one....:mad:
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
You may find what they did unfair, but the T&C for phone and AT&T service clearly says you need one of the qualifying data plans. You were able to continue based on an over site.

The fair thing for both parties is to inform you prior to the switch or at least not charge you overage fees. But the older mediamax plan has never been compatible with Android smart phones.

As for VZW - things are subjective. Yes the offer unlimited data for $30 per month, but better service depends on location. They do have great coverage, but they have their own dead spots. Also, unless you get global phone, you can't use your phone outside North America - this may not be an issue for you though. There is also no concept of unlocked phones or taking your phone to another carrier due to the CDMA technology. And if you want to talk and use data at the same time, it is not possible with CDMA.
[Captivate General] fldude99:
^^ATT doesn't need to inform you according to the contract. No offense, but IMO that kind of data usage deserves a higher cost to you as you are using more bandwith than most out there. You should ck carefully with Verizon..I don't think "unlimited" exists anywhere. They probably have the same "fair usage" rules as well-I believe that's how they term "unlimited"
[Captivate General] xredjokerx:
yeah.. thats a little bit ridiculous. Even with an unlimited plan, you're using an obscene amount of bandwidth. Not only that but you're getting angry that they got angry that you used so much data tethering, which is also another option that I'm sure wasn't included in your MediaMax plan. With all respect, you had it coming by abusing your cheaper data plan like that. You KNEW that the newer plans were more expensive and that the only reason you were able to keep your plan was because you had it before they implemented the new ones, yet you decided to use 5x the amount of bandwidth they allow their highest paying customers. Are you serious? Go to verizon, pay for their unlimited data, use 10gbs and they will cut your data after 5gbs and send you cease and desist letter. Ridiculous.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
VZW still calls their $29.99 plan unlimited and doesn't list a data cap anywhere.

But, they would probably do what other carriers do and ask you to leave (or terminate your account) if you use a ton of data on a smartphone.
[Captivate General] JoshIV34:
how do u convince them?

i just called yesterday and they said if i upgrade i can not grandfather my unlimited data. How do u convince them?:confused:
[Captivate General] devadvance:
if you buy the phone from at&t on contract (for the discounted price) they will force you to change, otherwise they'd be taking a loss in the long run.

i bought my captivate for ~$400, but savings of $10/month over 2 years, plus the ability to sell it unlocked when i get a new phone means i'm actually using it for free.
