[Captivate General] nonameputs:
How do I add custom wallpapers to the Captivate? I know I can do it through the gallery, but I don't want to crop them. Not only that, but I want them to show up in the actual Wallpapers list. Anyone know?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
all wallpapers are 960x800 even if it doesnt ask you to 'crop them' the 'crop' is actually selecting a 960x800 section of the image.

as for them showing up in the actual wallpapers list, that is handled via the launcher.apk

its more trouble than its worth. just go through the gallery

in wireless settings, mobile networks, turn on 2G only, let it connect, then turn 3G back on. there are a number of widgets that can do this too, including the 2G/3G option in the power widget in CyanogenMod. i average about 16GB per month. this has always worked on my Nexus.

These workarounds will end up costing everyone more money.

No issue with tethering and using as primary net service....but 16 gigs ?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rjr162:
I was looking at the Samsung GT-I9000 source (which, by the way they don't list any different for the GT-I9000T/B etc) at the FM code.

I noticed stuff like this:

/*dev settings*/

/*band*/

#define BAND_87500_108000_kHz 1

#define BAND_76000_108000_kHz 2

#define BAND_76000_90000_kHz 3

/*channel spacing*/

#define CHAN_SPACING_200_kHz 20 /*US*/

#define CHAN_SPACING_100_kHz 10	/*Europe,Japan*/

#define CHAN_SPACING_50_kHz 5

Is the SI4709 FM chip in the I9000 hard coded with a band range, or is it mostly controlled by software? The reason I was asking is I was wondering if you could change the unused one to something else. What I mean by that is, if you're in the US, leave the band settings for the US alone, but change the bands for Europe, which wouldn't impact my normal reception. I was wondering how high it could go, if the FM chip would reach say the weather band or PB/Air range. No real point but I thought it would be fun to do.

The other question I have is I see the channel spacing is shared between Euro and Japanese, which is right, but I thought Japan's FM frequencies are a lot lower than in the US and Europe.

EDIT> ok, got my answer after finding the data sheet:

Worldwide FM band support (76–108 MHz)

So it will go down to the 76, though it doesn't on the I9000's radio app I have even when set to European. Might still be something fun to play with to see if anything is received down there.. there's no setting in Android its self that would allow you to change the band without modifying the source and recompiling is there?

[Nook Color General] breebauer:
Looking forward- can anyone explain the potential of the Nook over other Android tablets?

Any thoughts on the Coby Kryos MID7015 compared to the Nook Color?

On paper, it looks like the advantages of the the Nook are:

- much better screen

- more RAM

- faster processor (?)

- longer battery life

But- Is that worth spending $100 more for the Nook?

Is one more sturdy than the the other?

Does one have better Wifi?

Are there other capabilities that are theoretically possible, but not yet available to the android noob (me)?

Thanks so much for any input!
[Nook Color General] Admiralvic:
maybe its just me... but anyone else getting sick of the nook VS X tablet?

as far as this question, I had a lower tier tablet which I stacked up against my nook. While im not the greatest frame of reference as I was content with just using the internet... The screens were generally less responsive, the apps worked so so... In some cases like the Panimage I had even on lan my nook loaded a page faster (and it was a full page and the pan was loading the same site in mobile mode... it just happens to load my blog that way though)

Take my opinion for what its worth... but for the price the nook cant currently be beat (if rooted), I personally prefer it to a straight up tablet as the E-Reader functions are far beyond any singular app.
[Nook Color General] norkoastal:
For the price the NC has a lot going for it now that it has the market enabled, and almost all of the tablet qualifying apps working. The fact that the screen is sharper than an Ipad and the price/performance ratio vs the galaxy tab is fairly close means its a good value... Go pick one up and compare yourself.. I suspect that any similar price tablets won't give you a better screen as costs are spread out to other tablet features (hdmi out, cameras, gps)...
[Nook Color General] sudermatt:
I have the original. ?..m001.....it's now my 9 year old's. I can't even begin to describe just how much more the the nook does....The nook color is worth 350 imho.....

Go to the store, have them take rhe device oitside diring the day....you'll be sold....very few color devices, ar any price, can be viewed outside. ?...
[Nook Color General] Malk3rs:
I think in this case what you are really paying for is build quality, which is kind of difficult to quantify. The Nook Color was designed to compete straddling the niches of the Kindle and the iPad, and accordingly was built very well. A budget tablet companies are competing for a different space in the market and though they may boast a lot of features (HDMI, Bluetooth, cameras) if you don't need these features then paying the same amount for a NC means it goes to build, design, and overall finish.

Edit: I forgot that there may be latent Bluetooth on the wifi chip. We'll just have to see if someone can coax it out.
[Nook Color General] HotShotAzn:
having owned lots of cheap Chinese imported Android tablets, the Nook is leaps and bounds above them all.

1) Build Quality: It's like comparing a Toyota to a base model Daewoo. I had so many build quality issues with the import tablets it was crazy! Things like the memory card slot spring would break after a week.

2) Screen: Most import tablets are resistive and you're lucky to have multi touch. Trust me, resistive screens suck for finger inputs.

3) Speed: Ok, so my phone is faster than the NC, but the NC is faster than any of those tablets.

You pay for what you get. I had a XPad 701 and a G10+ which was $200 and near the "best" of what you could get at the time. Both pale in comparison to the NC.
[Nook Color General] camwinnn:
Well MID or budget means probably Chinese so not only is it an "eh ok" touch resistive screen, awkward enough for sliding, the manufacturer is out of state so a problem is a month+ waiting for shipping.

B&N has the 1yr warranty and a big reputable place so just knowing i can go get another without waiting is nice.

Let alone the NCs specs beating it, can be rooted, an potential for roms later down the road. B&N has said January theres the update to 2.2 an market (tho thats still a wait an see thing) so thats only a usb2.0 an hdvia output to look forward to.

IMO NC FTW build quality, specs, potential.
[Nook Color General] breebauer:
I didn't know about that- Bluetooth would be a nice bonus!

Ok- that sounds promising. If B&N is already releasing an update, that makes me feel like this won't be something that will be almost obsolete in 6 months.

I've been Best Buy and other stores 4 times looking at the Nook, the Coby 7015, and the Huawei S7. The screen on the Coby was kind of a turn-off, since I'm used to staring at my iPhone4. The S7 seemed nice, but not necessary, since I have an iPhone.

Build quality is very important to me- I'm looking for something to use while traveling though Indonesia next month.

I just wanted to make sure the Nook won't be one of those things that I bought, because I thought I needed it, but wound up in a drawer after a few months for whatever reason.

Thanks!
[Nook Color General] clockcycle:
In the end, for me at least, it's also about community support. If you look around, you'll see the Nook Color has it.

IMHO it's useless to have a super duper whopper that you're stuck using stock, no dev support, no manufacturer's support, at 2.1 without a market..

[Nook Color General] HotShotAzn:
My Xpad was orphaned by the community because the seller stopped selling it after a few weeks. I vowed that I would only buy a tablet that had a huge backing (Samsung Tab or NC were on the top of the list).
[Nook Color General] Withfeeling:
To me, the two real competitors out there now (other than iPad) are B&N & Archos. The Archos 70 is about the same price as the NC. It has way better connectivity and is real Android out of the box. It also has the best video drivers out there. I have an Archos 101 and it is very good. I also have an NC. I bought it for the quality of the screen. Basically I bought it as soon as I was convinced I could root it because the base software would be unusable for me. It also works great and it is much better to read with than the Archos. I use ezPDF and Moon Reader on both.

Both Archos and B&N seem to have pretty strong communities. For Archos, this is Gen8, and the folks in that community go way back with Archos. B&N seems to be solidly behind their eBook readers and they have built two very solid products with the NC and Nook Classic, In fact, the NC is now replacing my Nook Classic as my eBook reader.

Beware of companies that will be a flash in the pan. They will be dropped by the early adopter community as soon as the next big thing appears.
[Nook Color General] greenmky:
The biggest difference to me is the hi-rez IPS capacitive screen. Most of the cheapie tablets have resistive screens and/or cheap TN LCD screens with crummy viewing angles.
[Nook Color General] long2know:
I have both a rooted Nook Color and rooted MID7015 running stock OS.

The price difference is < $100 ($250 vs $180 in my case).

The out-of-the-box experience for the (rooted) MID7015 is very poor. It doesn't have multi-touch, a LOT of apps don't work or don't work properly, it maps its extra storage space as /sdcard thus screwing with inserted SD memory mapping, the WiFi is horrible (I found myself having to constantly disable/renable in settings), it runs a 800x480 (I think) resolution, and it's a bit clunky. I have not tested the HDMI. I DID try Cynanogen on it. It improved some things, but a lot of apps still did not work (Angry Birds, Slice It, etc), and WiFi performance was even worse.

By comparison, the rooted Nook has none of these deficiencies, runs at a full 1024x600 res, has multi-touch, apps working correctly, and is a pleasure to use. My only negative experience with the Nook Color so far is that I sometimes see behavior like this which power cycling fixes (and my unit may just be messed up - dunno yet): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiHH6mdH0WU&feature=related

So, in my book, the Nook Color is the clear winner.

[Fascinate General] spitfil2e8:
Hey,

Im pretty new to rooting and everything was going well I had root and just about everything the way i wanted, but then i looked on the rom manager and saw that they had updated roms and kernels, I downloaded them directly from rom manager and did a full back up and data wipe before installing... everything was going fine I rebooted and had a tun of force closes... so I went in and restored data to my last build and that went through and I finally got all the force closes to stop by doing another data wipe, but when i tried to go to download and go back to my last build I noticed that my phone has no storage cap at all. I have done everything that i could think of to try to fix this issue to no avail.

Any help would be awesome

2. Once you've root your device use this application http://www.mediafire.com/?ewf9e41ybw2eazz

to install the Xrecovery menu on your phone... It's very simple as well....

3. Download this file http://hotfile.com/dl/87564842/7e80127/SE_update-shipped-full.zip.html

and save it to your SD Card into any folder you want, I recommend you to do it in a new one with any name you want, that will make easier the next step...

4. Reboot your phone and right after the white letters with Sony Ericsson logo appear press the back key a few times , if the Xrecovery menu has been installed correctly you will see a weird image of and Android with troll face lol... and a bunch of options like reboot, install update zip etc....

5. Choose Install Custom Zip and then go to the folder you created with the downloaded zip file... from step 3... Then select it and click in yes... Wait for a few minutes and when the phone tells you done click on reboot and wait for the firmware to load...

6. Enjoy the SE 2.1 firmware with JIT enabled.
