[Optimus One, P500, V General] 22VIN:
I emailed LG Romania Support today and the answer was: "the P500 can't be upgraded to gingerbread because the processor and the memory will not allow runing the 2.3 version" :))) So if LG Romania doesn't even know that their phone can be upgraded to 2.3 than they surely don't know when will this be possible
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
They are complete morons. Because of the memory ? This device has 512 mb, same as Nexus S, same as Desire, Nexus One, Galaxy S, all high-end devices.

I'm 100% positive that the upgrade will be released !

L.E: And to sustain my post, read this: http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/publicnotices/optimus-one-os-upgrade.jsp

Will this update fix the sd card problem?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] wizagg:
what's wrong with the sd card? i never had any problems with it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Blabah:
I'm having trouble detecting the sd card.

I inserted a sandisk 4gb class 4 and my phone didn't recognized it (i got the 'SD card removed. Insert a new one.' notification). Then, i inserted back the original 2gb sd card from the box, but that notification is still there and it can't be recognized. But both my PC and a another android device (a galaxy tab) can detect it. So, i tried formatting both the 4gb and the original 2gb with the galaxy tab and inserted it to my O1 but nothing has changed. I tried updating to the official V10E firmware but it makes no differences. Any help please?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Blabah:
Anybody found a solution for this yet? Please help.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RileyB:
Do we have a list of system app dependancies? I.e., Handcent requires Messaging.app etc. Just wondered for the purposes of clearing out system space.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] USSENTERNCC1701E:
I do not believe there is. What I do is: nandroid, uninstall what I don't want, reboot, wait for a crash. The only dependency issue I had was with the gtalk service, required by market, everything else seems to either tell you what it is or simply be unnecessary. You can also try freezing the service/app with Titanium Backup Pro or viciously kill with a task manager and watch for faults before unistalling. Whatever you do NANDROID first, it took me hours to find an install for gtalk (this was before gapps was a separate flash and downloadable everywhere).
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RileyB:
Thank you! Titanium Backup works great for this!!! Handcent does good without the stock messaging, but will not get MMS without it. Got rid of quite a few garbage apps that were built in, so far, all is well.
[Epic 4G General] dee32181:
I can list ten things I like about the epic 4g but One thing I love in particular is the sound quality for music playback...the sound is so full and lively that it sounds as good or better that dedicated music players. For reference purposes I am using my shure e500pth headphones (which would definitely reveal sound processing flaws on phones with terrible dac converters such as the evo, i know because i had a evo and compared it to the epic and quickly switched to the epic). I also use poweramp (the paid version of course) due to its excellent eq and flexibility for shaping the sound to your liking). Let me know your favorite thing about the epic
[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
Porn looks great on the Super AMOLED screen.

:D :D :D
[Epic 4G General] MaxPatlick:
^^^ see, this guy knows whats up ^^^

A month later and it's still the display.. I still open it up all the time just to marvel at how black the blacks are..

watching movies, looking at pictures.. anything visual is made better because the display is just THAT awesome. I'm not really in the market for a TV yet, but whenever AMOLED screens start showing up in decent sized TV's at an affordable price, I'm all over that!!
[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
And the good news is OLED technology is super-cheap to manufacture, benefits mightily of economies-of-scale.

So, after the first ones come out and the manufacturers/dealers finish raping the early-adopters for their entire life's savings, the prices will come down, WAY down, on nice, super-thin, lightweight, giant wall-mountable sets.

Imagine a 65" screen that you take anywhere with you, unroll, tape to the wall, plug the thin, flexible cable into the electronics box, and watch HD anywhere you go.

Yes, Homer, that day is just around the corner.
[Epic 4G General] iwantAdollar:
Haha hell yeah man.
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
Definitely the screen. Its gorgeous. So, so, so gorgeous.
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
My favorite things is when im showing someone a pic or a vid the first thing they do is say "damn what is this a hd screen? what phone is this?" and then they turn the phone around and look at it from every angle haha.. never fails. samoled FTW
[Epic 4G General] hayabusa1300cc:
I agree with a lot of poeple and say the display.

Although its something that I have been used to for over a year

Considering my laptop has the $400 optional Dreamcolor display (16million colors vs desktop version 1billion colors)

But the deep blacks are amazing on the samoled.

Its like a mini hdtv lol.
[Epic 4G General] bigshark7:
For me its the response of the cpu, the epic is fast.
[Epic 4G General] shook187:
I'm going to have to say its the 4g...It rocks and I'm so glad I'm in a 4g market both at home and 35 miles alway in Boston. I cancel my home internet and now only use my Epic with hotspot.
[Epic 4G General] ranchosteve:
I have to say the screen too, Every time a girl looks at it with my aquarium live wallpaper, they love it. (Good Ice Breaker)

Everytime I see another display, i might as well rub sand in my eyes.
[Epic 4G General] Top Nurse:
The fast CPU and the hard keyboard.

Edit: The so-called 4G dl speeds are phenomenal! I DL Trinity rom (132 Mb) file in about 8 minutes.
[Epic 4G General] chad783:
2 things...

Speed and apps. I overclocked my Pre but still not close to what the Epic can do. I still have 2.1 on my phone and will wait til the official 2.2.1 comes out to upgrade which will make it even faster.

Once again, come from the Pre which their catalog has 4700 apps to date, the app catalog for Android blows WebOS away.

I am on the outskirts of Denver so we don't have 4G available but it will be coming. All-in-all, I am very happy with my upgrade.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashasaur:
Here's the deal folks...my mom washed her Vibrant in the washing machine a few days ago. 2nd Vibrant by the way. Anyways, pulled it out, threw it in some rice, got LOADS of water out of it and voila! Amazingly, after being through an ENTIRE wash and rinse cycle...it basically works! Everything...screen, cell radio...everything, except for the buttons. My question of course is why does everything else work except the capacitive buttons? They light up, but pressing them doesn't actually make anything happen. If anyone has been through this, please let me know what you did to fix it. Help a mod out anyone? THANKS!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a400meter:
Perhaps there is still a little moisture in there preventing it from reading the touch. Just a thought, haven't had to deal with this. *knocks on wood*

Edit: if thats all that doesn't work. I'm sure a replacement part would be relatively easy to install. Beats the price of a new phone...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kemp77:
Crack it open and look for any white mineral deposits that may be on the mainboard and clean them off. Of course let it thoroughly dry out again. I have used a toothbrush and alcohol to clean them in the past.

Sometimes that can help.... Good luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
Open phone take out everything battery sim etc.

Now just turn it on its back and leave for a hour or so eventually if there is water it will drip out if you notice little bits of water on the thing you put your phone on then there's probably more water in and do the rice thing again. Can't give much more suggestions than that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setrepaca:
My T959 is dead

Wow...I always knew these vibrant phones are not easy when it comes to dying.

I have sorta a related story as well....

I'm in Canada right...and once when we had 15cm of snow amidst -20C or -4F, I needed to go shovel all the snow mess off the ground.

I had my T959 in my big ass jacket's pocket so its all nice and warm in there...but once I came back to the house, I noticed it was wet from all the sweating. Damn, that snow shoveling is a real hard workout for reals.

Anyhow, I opened my Vibrant up as per this guide on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOvt6atrin8

There's no traces of water and my buttons still will not work, they do light up but that's it.

I'm not into warranty, I love to get in and pull and push...play engineer sorta. Didn't work...now I might be looking into buying some spare parts.

Funny thing is the rest of the touch screen is still super responsive even when I'm out in minus weather...just these heat sensitive touch buttons grrr.

Maybe it is old news already but this is what I saw on a Dutch website and I'm happy: SGS I9000 gets update to Gingerbread!!!!!

You can find the news on Tweakers.net

Can anybody confirm?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Billus:
Couldn't you use question marks (?) instead of exclamation marks (!) since your asking a question?

To answer you question, Samsung are sending mixed signals much like LG. Samsung are most likely looking at the cost/benefit of upgrading the Galaxy S. Obviously, the Galaxy S is more than capable of running Gingerbread.

[Desire General] danlepub:
... found this setting while resetting my Desire. I was trying to work out why it won't update to Froyo. A lot of you seemed interested in learning something from a Desire like this on these forums in August...

- Is this still of interest/use to anyone?

- Does security off mean that it can be rooted more easily... or is it already rooted?

- What is my best bet for updating/improving it (either by root or OTA)?

Any help would be gratefully received :)
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
I think if it is S-Off you are pretty much rooted anyway as you should have full access to the system anyway and can replace what you want?

Regarding if it would be useful to anyone, I will let the devs answer that one, a good place to ask would be the #alpharev channel on irc.freenode.net. Since IEF was the "father of S-Off" it might be of interest to him?
[Desire General] danlepub:
Thank you for the response... I will have a look at #alpharev

Been reading more, and I'm not sure it is rooted... there is no Super User icon.

It is also HBoot 0.75... I thought S-Off changes it to 0.93. Also been in touch with HTC who say it is unbranded, yet it is branded... network provider splash and everything! :confused:
[Desire General] PaulW21781:
Being S-OFF and being rooted are actually 2 completely different things which alot of people get confused thinking they are somewhat the same.

S-OFF basically means you have an unlocked bootloader (like a computers BIOS), which allows you to flash custom recoveries from fastboot, aswell as ROMs, have full r/w access to NAND and so-forth without the need to mess about with lengthy hacks or bodge methods to also flash a custom / updated ROM.

Being Rooted gives you elevated permissions within the android OS itself, so you can do things you can't normally do, such as access bits of the filesystem which are usually hidden via a permission mask, run applications which require elevated permissions to work, such as SETCPU and Titanium Backup. Think of the rooting process as using your computer with an admin account (rooted) allowing you full control over everything, and a Limited Account, where access to key systems isn't allowed and you can only do certain things.

Now combine the two, S-OFF and Rooting, and you basically get a rather large slice of awesome pie. Being rooted while S-OFF will now allow you to have full R/W access to the system partitions while android is running, so you can run even more apps such as AdFree (allowing you to update hosts list without flashing a whole new ROM) amongst other things.

Brilliant! Think I understand... thank you very much. :D
[G Tablet Accessories] butchconner:
I am on the go a lot and carry my G-Tablet with me along with a notebook. I use the "stock" G-Tablet bag from Sears (the Case Logic one) to carry it and I put memory cards, cables, charger etc. in the side pocket.

The charger -- even with the plug attachment removed -- still makes a huge bump on the side of the case. I worry something will push it again the G-Tablet and break something.

I have researched MPA-630 and 12V 2A chargers on the web and found several like the stock charger -- an a couple of bricks like my Samsung NC-10 uses.

But what I really would like is an adapter like my Motorole phone (older model) has which is relatively things and has fold out blades.

I'm posting this in the hopes that all of us looking for chargers, etc. can watch for the best one for our use -- and to share that info.

[G Tablet Accessories] anlog:
This might work, and you can buy the optional plug set (one of them is bound to fit). If not, you can just splice the original connector or buy one from Radio Shack. It also has your folding plug thingie.

http://www.powerstream.com/ac-1225.htm

It's rated up to 2.5A so it should work...
[G Tablet Accessories] insight3fl:
FYI, the plug on the stock charger is removable leaving about a 1" thick by 1.5 x 2.5 inch rectangular charger. Look at the dimensions of the one in the link and it says it is 1 x 2 x 3..... not any smaller.
[G Tablet Accessories] yzf600:
I don't think you will find a smaller charger. Certainly nothing like the kindle/iPhone wall USB charger. The 2amp requirement dictates certain sized electrical components.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yeria:
Ok...so after updating to Froyo my GPS is not working. Not only that, my phone can't seem to find my approximate location even after enabling "Use Wireless networks". I used GPS Status app from the market and I confirmed the phone was seeing several satellites, but it was getting no lock. I had no problem with my GPS with 2.1 aside from losing my location occasionally when I drive through the downtown.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I'm running my phone on Rogers network, unlocked and rooted.

You didn't say what version of Froyo you are running but I'd change my modem file and use one of the alternate ones that DocRambone has.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n0th1ng:
I was also having this problem. I updated to bell froyo using kies, and am unlocked using rogers. I loaded gps test, set it so it wouldn't shut off the screen, and let it run for about 30 min in a window. Eventually it got solid lock on a couple sats and it now seems a lot snappier to get a lock.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yeria:
Ok, good news! At least for me anyway... I decided to try keeping my GPS on and let my phone to try and find my location..however long it was going to take. I don't think it took me 30 minutes but it took me good 10 minutes before my GPS found my location. I think the problem was because I'm having trouble getting location information based on my wireless network and updating to Froyo and doing a factory reset must have deleted my satellite schedule. Right now I'm just so glad to find out my GPS isn't broken! :-D You should try the same thing I did.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yeria:

Thanks Yeria, that sounds like the problem we're having.

I do find that if I give it enough time, It will get a pure GPS lock, but I'm not getting any aGPS (the network based)

That thread you link sounds like the solution, but unfortunately I can't seem to access the file they tell you to modify
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikextr23:
I too have GPS problems right after upgrading to official froyo. And it kept getting worse when i tried custom ROM. I tried factory resetting and format all my sd card, cache wipe etc hoping that it will return to normal like when i was in 2.1 elcair but to no avail. I don't know if some bad code was left behind when i did the official upgrade through kies. All i can say is it was working fine when i was at 2.1 then suddenly went bad after 2.2.

By the way, my problem is my GPS lock kept of disconnecting every now and then thus rendering my GPS useless as it kept on displaying my location as "off road" even though i'm on a clear highway with clear and bright skies!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sw411:
ahh, if I root the phone I can get to

/dbdata/databases/com.google.android.gsf/gservices.db

unfortunately, this phone doesn't have sqlite3 installed!! I need to try and find that

EDIT: Found a copy of sqlite3 and was able to push it to the phone. edited the db as people suggested! I'll have to test it on Monday
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yeria:
Based on what I have found so far, and assuming your aGPS or any other wireless based assistance features are not functioning properly, doing a reset and cache clear will not help with your GPS at all. I have read that the phone will try to download the satellite schedules directly from GPS satellites if you're using purely satellite based GPS option. It'll be slow so it will take longer to get a lock and that's why phone will use other means to shorten the lock time. Once the schedule is downloaded, they said there shouldn't be any problem until the schedule expires, at which point you will have to download the schedule again.

I think the reason you're losing lock frequently might be because your phone doesn't have a clear view of the sky..? I used my phone GPS to drive around Toronto, Vaughan and Mississauga last night for at least 4+ hours, and I did not have any problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sw411:

Now that my wireless location service is kind of working I thought aGPS should also naturally work but I guess not... My GPS takes a pretty long time to start up and I haven't found any fix for this..

[Fascinate General] finakechi:
Hey Guys I have done a little searching and haven't found the answers to my particular questions.

I came from a MotoD1 and had done plenty of custom Rom flashing and I feel pretty comfortable with the whole process. Now my question is about the selection for the Galaxy S (specifically the Fascinate) phones. I see all these vodoo lagfixes and ext file system fixes and the like. Maybe I am over thinking this all but I am confused.

On the D1 you picked out the ROM you wanted and made sure the kernel was the correct for your version on android (Eclair, Froyo, etc.) And some times you found a ROM and kernel that just didnt work too well together.

Is the Vodoo kernel just a group of guys doing it like Chevy and P3Droid and I can flash it to any compatible versions of and android rom? or is it something slightly different?

An dwhat exactly is the lagfix?
[Fascinate General] wizang:

Voodoo is lagfix. Lagfix fixes the lag. Though with the newer kernels, the lag isn't noticeable really. Join the irc and we will be happy to help you. :)
