Hey can plz someone help and show me the option to turn off the letter preview for sms etc.

ROM: cyanogen 6.1 nightly #60
[Wildfire Android Development] gimj01:
I think that there isn't any option for that...I'm pretty sure...you can try with Handcent SMS...
[Wildfire Android Development] kingsize1337:
Damn ****. Before ich have the stable version there was the option but now im not sure if there was the option only in the stable and not in the nightly :/

now i have handcent can i disable this there?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dnguyen527:
Hello All,

I promise I've done 2 days of research before and while doing this.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S on ATT using ATT network. I tried to put Cognition on it 2.3b7 and something was wrong with the battery life, so I decided to start over and flash it again. In the meantime DG released 2.3b8.

I rooted it Mac (i'm on a mac), got superuser permission, did the whole clockwork thing. Then I decided to flash it using Odin3 1 click downloader back to ATT software. Well then I got phone...!...computer error. I couldn't do the 3 button combo to get it download mode. I made the 301k Jig, that worked and got me in to download mode. I used Odin3 again, got it back to ATT software but I think it was still custom.

The whole ODIN process was actually way more indepth because it wouldn't work, or the USB software wasn't installed correctly, my phone kept being a *****. But I got it to work eventually.

My phone would also say Samsung I9000 (it's a i897, idk if its the same) instead of just the ATT start up. I went through the rooting process a few times on the Mac and no super user app would show up. So I did it on a PC and it worked. Then I went through the standard process of installing Cognition. I backed it up using clockwork, then clicked install rom and selected the .zip file in the SD card.

It started working. Then after about 30 minutes, it just wouldn't turn on anymore. I've taken out the battery, it's fully charged and all that. It still just won't turn on. It's all black...

What happen, has it happen to anyone and how do I fix it?

It's seriously a paper wieght right now.

:eek:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MacConsult:
Exact same thing happened to me - except I have a genuine i9000.

ROM Flasher - selected ROM - booted into clockworkmod, which started flashing the ROM, it proceeded for about 10 minutes, displayed lots of activity on the screen, then the screen went black... and has remained black ever since.

The phone won't turn on, won't go into download mode, won't go into reset mode. I have a jog on order, but I don't think that will do much. I thought that maybe the battery had drained (it didn't - tried it in a different phone).

The phone is just dead, and an equal paperweight.

Are there any options left, or do I just need to send it back to Samsung?

When you flash roms do you have flash the radios and kernels seperately? Or are they in the rom already? Im new and lookin for a good rom to flash to help get rid of all the BS apps and please help with battery life

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
The rom comes with a kernal but you should experiment with different kernels. Myn's warm 2.2 rom is my favorite rom so far and kings kernal#11 is good. I would stay away from new radios if you don't know what you are doing.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ICEReaction:
When you use your USB wire to connect to the PC, choose disk drive and just copy/paste (drag/drop) the zip files to SDcard or you can use adb to push the files to the SDcard.

Alternatively, if you are in recovery (Amon_RA - not sure about ClockworkMOD), you can choose USB toggle mode and that mounts the SDcard as a disk drive.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squick:
I'm getting pretty good results from my setup.

1. Myn's Warm rom rls4

2. New kernel- I just downloaded last night but the battery stayed on 100% for quite a while. Here's the link- http://xdaforums.com/show...calkulin's

3.Riptide9's ColorNclear theme with several of the addons, speedo batt, blue dialer, launcher pro (the update for warm2.2 themed).

I myself have tried probably every rom out there that has working 4g, I dont see owning an evo and not having 4g, and found this one to be the best. You do have to do an update to the wireless tether, can be done through the app itself. Hit me up if you need assistance. If it is the batt life you're primarily concerned with, this kernel is supposed to be awesome. Check it out, mine is overclocked to 1152000 and it still stayed at 100% for a good amount of time after being taken off charge. If you try it and like it let me know. I like to know that I was able to help someone.

Just me..but why worry about viruses when one could have "root" and get your whole phone and all of the data and connection permissions on it to everything you connect to "in the cloud" and elsewhere.

A simple rogue app would do this and never be considered it a virus.. all you have to do is install it and give it su and it does it all. This isnt a windozes environment...we want it all.."root"...viruses are child play for windoze. my opinion.

Try a different keyboard. If that doesn't solve it, try re-installing ur ROM. That should solve this issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yourtvlies:
On the stock rom (I don't know about others) you can go into the dialer and hit *#0*# to bring up the LCD TEST screen. From there you can select "touch" - you'll be presented with a parameter of boxes to fill in to test the screen.

I'm not sure how you exit the test mode w/o filling in all the small boxes if there's a problem with your display (you might have to pull the battery?), but it should isolate the issue for you.

[Fascinate General] dspanos:
I did a search through the forum, and looked at the original topic, but didn't seem to find anyone else experiencing this problem.

I am running DJ05, and I downloaded the file called "uber_market.zip" I found on XDA to allow me to upgrade to the new market. I then flashed it in clockwork. I also got rid of the bloatware on my phone by renaming (not deleting) certain applications through Root Explorer. I noticed that when I pressed the the search button in the market nothing happened (didn't pop up the keyboard), nor did it work by pressing the soft key from the home screen, or in the browser. I went back and restored everything I had done one at a time, eventually getting back to the base installation. I then added all the changes back one at a time. The search function worked with every mod until I came to flashing the new version of the market. Has anyone else experienced this, or know a fix? I really like the new market, but it's really hard living without being able to search on anything! lol

Thanks in advance...

Dan
[Fascinate General] dspanos:
On further review, I think I was mistaken. It looks like it's the new Google Maps update that's causing the problem. I had it set to update automatically and didn't notice the installation at first so it looked like it was the market doing it. Last night I tried re-installing search after the map update completed, but it still wouldn't work, so I started over after setting the map update to manual and the search function worked fine again in the market. If anyone else is experiencing this, let me know! I hope they get this fixed soon!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhariak:
Pre-amble:

Windows Phone 7, configured properly and 100% working with Exchange (e-mails set to sync back 1 month)

So, today someone asked me what day I met with someone back on December 2nd (today is December 20th).

That day I had a Calendar entry, and it IS (I confirmed) on my outlook (also setup with Exchange). I went on my phone and the Calendar item wasn't on my Calendar on the phone...

I double checked all my appointments for the past week were both on outlook/phone and they were, but it seems to get blury before the 2nd.

Anyone have any idea why some of these items are disapeering?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiwas:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhariak:
I'm not a bonehead, but I can't find a setting for how far back the calendar goes! I can find it for e-mail (which is set to go WAY WAY back), but not for the calendar...

( I know WM6 had the setting, but can't find it on here)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] action_efn_jackson:
Well the answer clearly is you met with them on december 2nd :P

now on a serious note. just looked at my calendar and went back to july and all my meetings and what not are all still there. (just in case i have no idea how exchange works) but my guess is for some odd reason you erased it from your calendar on your device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
all my calendar items are still there.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gate Keeper:
no need for people to be hostile... it could just merely be a syncing issue. this might sound a bit of a reach, but have you tried removing the exchange account and readding it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhariak:
haha, sorry about the typo, I had a few glasses of wine before my original post.

(I meant to say they asked me what time I met with someone that day)...

Anyways, the issue is still there, reconfigured the sync and absolutely no change. I've kind of narrowed it down though. It appears it will only sync the calendar back 2 weeks into the past exactly....

Is this a default setting on WP7 we can't change? (Please keep in mind inside of my e-mail sync settings on the phone, I have it configured to go back a month).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] action_efn_jackson:
Did you go to settings/email accounts and make sure the sync calendar box is checked?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zhariak:
Uhh yes...

As I mentioned originally, The Calendar is syncing, and items are staying up to date (I have at least 6-8 items per day that have to be updated, and they are staying updated, theres no problem with these).

The problem is that after 2 weeks, it just removes the items off the phone (they stay on my Exchange mailbox, and stay in Calendar), the phone just removes them...

E-Mail is setup to sync a month into the past, so I'm thinking the e-mail sync past feature only applies to e-mail on the phone. I havn't been able to find a "how far back to sync" option specifically for the Calendar.

In my last post, I mentioned that I got rid of the Exchange sync, and reconfigured it. This removed everything, and re-set it all up.... The calendar still only goes back 2 weeks...

The only items that are in my Calendar before the 2 weeks are appointments which are configured as re-curring. Any other type of appointments don't show in the past further than 2 weeks into the past.

I don't beleive this is anything I'm doing wrong. I'm just wondering if this 2 weeks into the past thing is hardcoded into the phone, or what...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little_daffodil:
Just wondering if anyone has found a solution for this 2 weeks thing?

[Nexus S General] DarkAgent:
Okay so I was trying to clean out the dirt in the sides of my phone (the area between the screen and cradle) and noticed that the screen was ever so slightly left and top aligned than centered. In other words, there was less space between the screen and the cradle on the left and the top than there were on the right and the bottom. Not really a big deal, but a sign of poor manufacturing.

Anyone else have this on their phone?

2) To see if this is a common problem
[Nexus S General] allen099:
Surprisingly, I think this phone has actually one of the better shields between glass and bezel. I went through COUNTLESS (literally probably 10) Nexus One's with dust under screen (some had failed power button too). Next, the Vibrant was ok, but the following phone, my MyTouch 4G...oh man. Again, went through 5 of them all due to being shipped with multiple specs of dust under the screen. My Nexus S isn't perfect but at least this first one is decent.

One thing I learned..trading in one phone for another can bring unwanted problems. Others are complaining about home/back buttons on the side not working, others say GPS is an issue. You never know what you'll get, so be ready. I don't know how keen Best Buy is on swapping a few phones either.

In my experience though, HTC has far worse QC than Samsung (including the crappy HTC tinny speaker). Ugh, don't get me started on that.
