Ok the other day my cousin and i was debating on which of our phones was better. He has a blackberry and of course i have my epic. He was going on and on about how much better the web was so i was like show me. He went to facebook i was like are you f...ing kidding me the mobile site. So i said go to www.newgrounds.com so went to the site and of course his blackberry choked he looked at my phone and said i was cheating and have hacked software in my phone i was like no buddy it's called adobe flash. Now go to the store and pick up android. Do anyone else got any funny stories about none android users thinking their windows mobile webos or even dare i say it iphone is better than what android is laying out right now. Oh yeah his blackberry can't even do youtube lol
[Epic 4G General] Machina2o2:
Its true you are cheating because officially no samsung galaxy s phones have adobe flash only flash lite which wouldnt run most of the content on newgrounds. CHEATER!

I have friends that think there iphone 4 is better, then i show them my awesome screen and all the awesome capabilities i do with it, and the are envious, and envious with my fast data service even on 3g my data speeds blow at&t out of the water. I also have people telling me that are obsessed with verizon and the damn droid models (ie: Droid x,Droid,DRoid 2) They dont understand that the epic is a droid, lol and blows there damn droids out of the water with all aspects. :)

Can the ifail i mean iphone even do live wallpaper
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Ive seen it do live wallpaper, however it has to be jailbroken.
[Epic 4G General] br//0k3/n:
Yes, I had the nexus one live wallpaper on my 3gs. :'D

Blasphemy you say?
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
wasnt it jailbroken?
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
Seriously, what benefit is a live wallpaper, seriously?? Sperm dancing all over your screen? Snowflakes bouncing here and there? Battery wasting...

A customer came in the other day. He is a friend of my boss'.. My boss asked him "is that an iPhone".. customer "yeah".. I was like "really ??.. check this out"

Grabbed my car keys and asked if I could see his phone for a second.. he was very hesitant... I offered him up my Epic to inspect real carefully... made sure he saw that there was NO screen protector on it.. then i proceeded to try and scratch the hell outta my SAMOLED.... then showed it to him and it was still perfect.. he was amazed..

Then he told me that he dropped it off his car seat one day while getting out of his car and the screen broke. So I (inside hesitation didnt take over, but was VERY present) held my phone w/ the screen face down about 3ft. from the concrete and dropped it. No scratches, no cracks, perfect condition (thank goodness)... he was VERY impressed.. I told him to go get something w/ Gorilla glass... and he was oogling over how bright and crisp the display was on the Epic too.. heh..

I love turning off the 'fan' in the 'fanbois' LMFAO

Comp usa sales manager

The Compusa sales manager where i live is an BlackBerry fanatic.

Ranting it can do this and that i said look i had a BB.

great phone when it works freezing,long boot times etc. slow etc. yada yada.

:p

He played with my epic and was stunned at the speed of the phone

The samoled blew him away also. I played a blu-ray ripped movie and he was in love lol.

needless to say the very next day he called me to ask where i got the info on rooting the phone.

he is now an epic user and an xda member lol.

running 2.2 fro-yo leak and more functionality than the BB ever had lol.:cool:

My brother has the iPhone 4.He came over the other day and pulled it out,"hey look at this resolution" ,he pulls up some high def images,I said send them to me.So now we are side by side,he fell in love...That higher resolution on a smaller screen with washed out colors and no true black make the screen look like ****... He wants a galaxy S now.

I love the super AMOLED and 4" is a perfect screen size. You don't have to squint to enjoy its resolution.

You can't even replace the battery of an iPhone. Steve Jobs says it's good for 10 hours. What if Steve Jobs gets wheeled into his surgery when he got his liver replaced and the surgeon goes "Replace your Liver? No! It's good for 10 hours!"

I put my first app on the market. For some reason, Google Market doesn't let you download your own app. wth?

I'm asking that someone download it (or try to) to make sure it works. There were a few steps to do to get the app ready for the market and I want to make sure I didn't mess anything up (and that people can dl it!)

It's called "Prefix Code Finder" and has a blue telephone icon and the author is "smartapps".

It's listed at $1.00...all I ask is you to dl it for 5 minutes, test it and then you can return it.

And another weird thing happened after I published it; I can no longer get it on my phone. I load it, it says "Success" and I can see it in Manage Applications, but the icon to run is not to be found!! I turned debugging back on, tried to load it by running it from Eclipse and installing with adb. I tired both apk's; the publishable version and the one that I changed the debug to TRUE. WEIRD.

Please don't consider this spam and I really didn't want to post this, but I have no way to check to see if this is working.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] Captainkrtek:
You are allowed to download your own app, trust me on that one, ive done it many times
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Hmmm...I'll try again, but..getting a "Server error has occurred" still

Well, I can't wait. Only thing I can think of was that I imported this project vs. "making it from scratch". I'm just going to make a new app and copy all the files in...something got out of synch somehow...
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Well, I redid the ENTIRE project from scratch, exported my apk and installed to market.

I still get a SERVER ERROR...can anyone please try to download this.....just see if you can pull it down, do a search or two and return it.

It's now called "Prefix Finder" has a red phone icon and the author is still "smartapps"

I just really need to narrow down if I'm doing something wrong with the app preparation or if it's Google Market.

Thank you so much :)

Only thing I can think of is that I don't have my bank account info in there yet; maybe that's causing the error...i just need another "body" to test it LOL
[Android Software Development] roscoenr:
It is moist likely your app there has been a lot of people getting this server error

Edit: I just downloaded app works perfect
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I'll make sure you get a free copy if you want it :) LOL

What sucks to me is making those images of the app; I'm a programmer, not a graphics artist. And since my data is on a hosted server, I can't get a picture of the output from the emulator. I would have to "hard code" some data in and then do the screen capture.

Oh well, off to get my next app up...similar to this one, but it's a Zip Code Finder.

Then I've got to figure out what to code next...:)
[Android Software Development] roscoenr:
It be pretty cool if you could put looking for the area codes and zoos by city and state
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
So, a reverse lookup? I have considered that.

I'll have to look at the data first. Major cities could have a lot of area codes and prefixes. Not worried about the speed pulling from the hosted database, it's pretty fast; I'm just worried about a crapload of data to scroll through :)

But hey, thanks, I will probably do it as version 1.1 if I'm not getting 100 areacodes and prefixes for one city. :)

Yeah, not going to work. I just queried Columbus, OH and got 427 rows back! :) That would be a lot of scrolling if I did that many lines. I could send it back as "201, 202, 203, 215, 216, 217....", but that just might look ugly LOL
[Android Software Development] roscoenr:
Yeah way top Mick Lol
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Got the other app published...I still don't know why I can't install either of them...freakn' server error.
[Android Software Development] jackHughes:
Don't know if you've tried this. Guessing you probably have, but I had got that error a few times before and I fixed by doing a reboot of the phone. Just an idea. :P
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Didn't think about that...thanks!

I just ended-up running adb install :)
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Well, I'm up and running and making "some" sales.

Moved on to licensing my apps (new and old). Once I get that ironed-out, I can start back with development, because we ALL know that's where the real fun is. :) LOL

Sucks being a programmer...no problems writing code, just not creative enough to come up with ideas that aren't out there yet...still in search of that "must have" app that sells 50,000 copies (yeah, I know...good luck ROFL) :)

Rooted HTC Evo with UnrEVOked 3 & stock Rom Froyo 2.2 .

I saw a post that led me to the stock zip file but where do I find boot animations to DL ?

Will replacing the stock zip file with a custom animation zip will do the trick ?
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
When I'm on Bluetooth and I get off the phone from a call, I can hear the earpiece making a pop sound continually and at seemingly random intervals. If I turn the earpiece off and shut down bluetooth on the phone it quits. I can turn BT back on and never hear it again until I get off a call. It does not do this when or after streaming audio from Pandora etc.

I'm on Viper ROM trinity 3.0.3

I have Odin'd the DK28 modem etc.

Basically, I'm on DK28 and I've had this dilemma w/ other ROMs so I'm wondering if it's a froyo problem or something else ?
[Epic 4G General] gusf123:
I have been experiencing this for a while myself. Sometimes I am able to get it to stop by placing another phone call and switching it back to the handset. I've never been able to make it stop by shutting down BT, though... The only reliable way I've made it stop is a reboot.

I just had someone else test for me. He was running a modified EB13 and he doesn't have the issue. So, I'm just sitting back and waiting for Viper on EB13.

[Desire HD General] Antonios76:
If we hard reset our phone without keeping the backup and untick the option of installing the backup from the options, then i think we loose the root and the S-OFF.

I am interested also too, to remove the s-off
[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
Antonios, no, S-OFF would remain. Also using stock RUU is not enough in most cases, as it would fail at hboot version checking while flashing OR Radio S-OFF would remain in the phone nevertheless. One tried, tested and simple way to S-ON from pretty much any phone state is to:

- Do Radio S-OFF (yes, S-OFF) with my tool if not already (link in sig)

- Follow the instructions in my Radio tool thread to go S-ON

It will remove clockworkmod, eng hboot, custom rom, everything. Your device will be completely stock after the process.

Hi

I recently got my phone back from repair (damaged screen). Phone came completaly wiped as you can imagine but before it was sent away it was running on OCLF 2.0 by Ryanza...After I got it back ive noticed that there were some problems like notification bar got stuck, appz were very laggy etc..

I came to the conclusion that this is because of some partition corruption or sth.

I tried to update firmware via Odin but whatever i try it always fails before installing giving me that in the recovery mode:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10

(invalid argument)

E:copy_dbdata_medua:Can't mount DBDATA:

I tried different Froyo version but it always downloads firmware from pc and fails just after that...(through Odin)

Recovery mode (3e) still works but i worry my partition structure may be damaged ...

Is there something else i can do to fix it??

Appreciate every help You can give me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gtg2:
Try an eclair firmware and check repartition in odin. There are a bunch of threads in the q&a forum. Search for your error msg.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] imadsani:
its very important that you use all 3 files, with repartition ticked, to get rid of these errors

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtySimpleClean:
So out of no where my touch sensors on my screen are not working. I do have nand backup of my current rom and yes that probably would fix whats going on. heres my issue though, i used unrevoked to root my phone a while back, but when i used the clockwork recovery, i got the black screen with white bars, so ive been using RA recovery to flash roms etc. last night i decided to turn my usb debugging off because my friends computer was being retarded when i connected my phone to it. also the only time i flashed the clockwork recovery was when i was using rom manager to check for rom updates. Unfortunately i was on the clockwork recovery before my sensors went out. i could easily use unrevoked again to flash RA recovery and restore my back up, BUT MY USB DEBUGGING IS OFF :mad: Now all i can do is turn my screen on and stare at my lock screen. Any ideas on anything i can do to make my phone function again? if anybody would know, i know it would be the people of this forum. thank you
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rynosaur:
Wrong forum, this belongs in Q&A. The easy answer is: find a stock RUU, get the PB31IMG.zip from it, and flash that in bootloader, then you can get back to turning USB debugging back on--assuming that you don't just have bad hardware.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtySimpleClean:
Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rynosaur:
Make sure to backup EVERYTHING first, RUUs are like steamrollers, they return everything to HTC/Verizon standards, and you very well could lose data.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpkid:
Hello There,

Apologies for what is another thread on GPS issues, but I need to vent!

I picked up a UK Galaxy S from ebay the other week and think all in all its a great phone (coming from a 3gs and HD7).

HOWEVER, the GPS is as good as worthless.

I have tried numerous guides I have found in line (altering settings in hidden menus and the like) and nothing seems to improve the accuracy of the device.

When using Google Navigation I often find that I have the blue sphere around the cursor, which will grow rather large at almost every junction or turn I come to. Tracking also seems to lag and jitter down roads. Going in a straight line is not so much of an issue, but when my speed or direction changes, the cursor will lag, at which point my location will usually be plotted way off.

Im on firmware 2.2, baseband 19000XXJPP and build number FROYO.XXJPO.

Is there anything I can do or should I just accept that the GPS is broken and forget about it? What puzzles me is that some people seem to have no issues what so ever. Whats the latest thinking on this issue?

Such a shame for a premium device.

Thanks

probably the cause for people that can't get a lock to any or very little satellite. Obviously ignore all the parts about the firmware, etc. since they do not apply to our phone but the hardware should be similar.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ming930919:
i could only get a lock when i am cycling or jogging or even in my house. But never in a car why is that. Sometimes in the car i could see up to 8 satellites but cant get a lock
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcarr622:
Running JPX with JK4 modem on my I9000M and it seems pretty decent. Got 5m or 10m lock consiatently within 15sec while driving in a city environment. I have been on firmwares in the past where it was totally broken. So right sw is important.

However my Aria can get 2m no problen even faster so still room for improvement. But I think Samsung is makingvit gradually better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seltaeb:
This has been my experience on JPX as well. Locking is very fast outdoors (including in the car), best accuracy I have managed is 5m. I can live with that I guess, since I don't really use the GPS all that much.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcarr622:
In the off chance that Samsung reads XDA, it is still not good enough. They have shown some improvement and they should, hopefully can, and hopefully will show more. Until Samsung stops SGS dev I have hope. From what I can see they are working harder than ever.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dakine:
Just tilt the phone to landscape and make sure your phone is mounted as far under the windshield as possible. The sgs has a small antenna so where you mount it makes a big difference. Also for car navigation try using something like Sygic Mobile Maps instead of google nav and see if that works better.

I haven't had issues with the gps for months now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpkid:
Thanks for all the input and information guys. Some very good stuff here.

From reading some of the threads posted I can definitely see how my problems echo those of others.

Interestingly, for me, the issue seems far worse when in built up areas with lots of buildings. Someone in another thread noticed the same issue and suggested that perhaps the software could not deal with the GPS signal reflections.

Literally I will be driving down the country road near to my house with almost acceptable levels of accuracy and as soon as I turn into my village the signal will vanish almost completely.

I guess the biggest mystery to me is why some people have no issues at all, whilst others do. Having just got the phone I am not familiar with firmware revisions and the like. What is the JPX build and how does it differ from mine? What version is mine exactly (JPO)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logicalstep:
I had terrible GPS issues and was waiting for the update, but my co-worker also had a SGS and got the 2.2 update, it only made a slight difference to the accuracy.

I would recommend you get it fixed by Samsung, I'm convinced they have changed something in the hardware to make the GPS work. It just doens; make sense that some people have the issues and some people don't who are running exactly the same firmware.

Although if you got if from Ebay, it'll probably be out of warranty. It might not though, in which case I would class this kind of problem as a manufacturing defect, they might fix it for free.

Logicalstep
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dakine:
menu > settings > about phone. Under baseband and build number you will see what firmware you are on.

Just plug the phone into kies and see if you have an update, if all else fails take the phone back for a replacement or have the gps antenna replaced by samsung.
