[Epic 4G General] drplaud:
A most peculiar thing has happened regarding my Contacts. At 7:54 a.m. on 12/9/2010, last Thursday morning, my Epic does not want to sync with my GMail contacts properly. When I change or add contacts on GMail from my computer, sometimes new or edited Contacts show up on my Epic, sometimes they do not. Regardless, on my Epic the sync screen indicates that 12/9/2010 at 7:54 a.m. was the last sync, it does not update. My calendar and GMail sync fine, but Contacts does not want to leave last Thursday morning! Has anyone else had this odd occurrence, and any suggestions on what to do? I wanted to insert a screen shot of my Epic to show you precisely what I am seeing, however this forum will not allow me to insert an image apparently because I have not been posting, only reading and learning.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
try turning off auto sync,then remove the google account,then re-add the google account,you might need to reboot to clear the cache first
[Epic 4G General] drplaud:
Thanks, but...

If I try to delete the GMail account I get a dialogue box that states "this account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data). You do that in the Settings application, under Privacy." What now?
[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
It will not reset your phone,only break the market until you reboot and readd account.
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Trying to run php script on my site.

If i put URL and name/value pair into a browser, the script runs and returns info from my database.

However, when I run HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://www.mywebsite/myscript.php");

I get Unknown Host; this is most likely DNS and my namesevers should be getting setup.

So I put in the IP address of www.mywebsite..and it throws a Socket Exception, Permission Denied.

Any ideas? I tried adding android.permission.INTERNET on the Applications tab of Manifest.xml, but that gives me an error and won't even run the program.

Something like "l (pid=3228, uid=2000) requires android.permission.INTERNET" no idea what that's complaining about :)
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Update to those that may encounter same problem....

Adding the permission via the Application tab wasn't correct. I manually added the line "<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />" before the <application> tag in manifest.xml and it worked fine.

NOTE: I had tired that before and it still gave an error. I shut down my Mac Book Pro and restarted and it was ok...maybe a cache issue.

Just wanted to find out from you guys who's in the Chicagoland area and who's planning on waiting outside the stores in the morning before they open? A buddy and I are probably going to the Harlem and Irving Plaza around 7am or so. Drop a comment below with which store you were planning on hitting and if not, just vote in the poll.

I don't think any of us will be fighting your average normobs for this phone, which means we only have each other to worry about. ;)

Edit: And yes, I saw the other thread, but there's no poll, and it's not specific to any location. It's just a bunch of people saying "I'll be there." :/

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zumi78878:
I flashed darky's v5.2 ROM and it flashed and it was working. But there was one problem and that was I couldn't call or go on my data plan, cuz it said" Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network." So, i thought that it was just maybe the new data that ovewrtied the old data, so i went on my phone and i went and did a "Factory Restore", then i did my passcode lock, and then it went and did its thing and when it booted to the boot screen. Now it is stuck there, PLEASE HELP!!!

It is stuck at this screen :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
If you can get into download mode again then reflash the device back to your original firmware (or whatever you were on before flashing Darky's Rom) and try again from there...

This is one you guys have been wanting for a while -- Android's Facebook app finally has proper Facebook chat. And push notifications. Yes, Virginia, there really is a Santa Claus. You can get the Version 1.5.0 update now in the Android Market, and we've got download links after the break. Now excuse us while we pester some Facebook friends

What Rom are you using? From what I understand, notifications are supposed to push as long as you have them enabled, but I'm not having any luck. Hopefully they release an update soon. People seem to have varying luck right now and it's a feature I always missed from the WebOS Facebook app.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] J4mm1nJ03:
Press the menu button on the main screen of the app. (Where you select news feed, friends, etc.) As long as you have the notifications box checked they should be enabled in theory, but ymmv.

When you say notifications you mean for comments and such, right? I've seen different results from everyone, ranging from notifications for comments, wall posts, etc from anywhere, to only getting notifications when the app is open (which sounds redundant) to people only getting chat notifications or people not getting any at all. I haven't tried chat because I don't really use it, but I haven't seen any statusbar notifications at all. Maybe I should try deleting the apk and reinstalling.

when a rom have the application included on the rom already, u wont be able to install the new update automatically from the market, it wont work. u have to wait till CM Developers updated there rom and update the new facebook, the other choice u have it to flash a zip of the new facebook app to replace the old version.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dmnokia:
Hi All,

I have problem to connect my school wifi network.

School wifi use 802.1x for authentication. The School use self signed PEAP

certificate. I could not connect my HD2 android phone to my school wifi.

But When I add a record to my winmobile registry I could use the schoo wifi on WinMo.

Here is the necessary correction for WinMo.

-------------

add a DWORD Registry Entry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-->Comm-->EAP-->Extension-->25

Name:"ValidateServerCert"

Value: 1 to activate Validation, 0 to turn it off

-------------

Is they any way to similar solution for android?

Thanks for your helps,

Best Regards,

DM
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
An interesting one, since PEAP is kind of part of the WPA-Enterprise networking area which Android doesn't officially support, however there appears to be workarounds if you do a bit of digging in the google docs.

is once such reference (from here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386).

It definitely seems like something to do with wpa_supplicant.conf but my phone is currently in another house so I can't have a look at mine for more info, sorry!

My Evo's defender was the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen excused for a case. Worst quality control and customer service I've experienced in recent years. Did not email. The vast majority of people on the Evo forums have had terrible experiences, and most of the feedback is crap. Otterbox used to kick ass, not so much anymore.
[Nexus S Accessories] Fresh & Minty:
The Otterbox defender for my Nexus one was the best case EVER (and I had a commuter, tough case and a seido innocase II) Great quality and great protection
[Nexus S Accessories] AdamHart612:
Yeah my old defenders for iPhone and N1 rocked socks. My Evo's case had a crack and broken kickstand in less then 12 hours. Without dropping it once. Just normal use and setting it down. Honestly the worst case I've ever used. From what I've heard, the rest of otters Evo cases were ok, but apparently their redesigning the defender due to "design issues" but they still wouldn't refund or replace mine.

[Nexus S Accessories] beetlejelly:
Interestingly enough, when I went into the flagship Bestbuy store in New York City on the day the phone came out, they told me that they received 40 devices. Doesn't this seem like an incredibly low number of phones for a release day? Apple stores must get at least a thousand phones a day when a new iphone comes out.
[Nexus S Accessories] burtmann:
I went in to a very small BB on launch date and they told me they had also received 40 units. Go figure.
[Nexus S Accessories] Drotheman:
Depending on if the store has T-Mobile in their best buy mobile will depend on how many phones a store will get. The ones that do have T-Mobile got around 80. The store closest to me only had 4 on launch day because they were selling it unlocked without contract.
[Nexus S Accessories] vapor311:

I don't get the argument against such cases. If I spend hundreds of dollars on a device, I wanna damn well protect properly. As for design, I hate the plastic Samsung uses for mobiles (feels so cheap) so altering it with an otterbox case is a win win for me.
