I also bought from the US and activated, and unlocked in Kuwait on a Kuwaiti SIM card. I confirm

not

having any data connection whatsoever! I've defined the APN settings correctly (works on a Samsung Spica & A Motorola Defy) with no luck.

Could you please check for me (*#*#4636#*#* --> Phone Info --> Menu --> Select radio band) what are the radio bands available for you to choose from?
[Droid Pro General] ThiloH:
I'm also on Swisscom and my MMS doesn't work either.

Did you set up two APN's, one for GPRS and one for MMS?

What happens if you send a MMS to yourself? I just get the SMS from Swisscom, that i received a MMS and i should look it up in the internet.
[Droid Pro General] fpont1:
@rafeee2: I also see "USA Band", but if I click on it I loose connectivity to Swisscom and have to do factory reset to re-connect...

@ThiloH: I can't even send MMS. I get "National access coverage not available", both before and after factory reset. I tried factory reset as I thought the MMS problem could be related to the fact that my phone was initially activated on Verizon.
[Droid Pro General] rafeee2:
I heard on another forum that flashing with the newly released SBF solved the issue to one guy. If I flash, will I need to re-activate via Verizon?
[Droid Pro General] fpont1:
My understanding is that you don't need to re-activate unless you want to use the phone in the US with Verizon/CDMA. I can still use my unlocked phone on GSM with my Swisscom SIM after a factory reset. I guess that flashing with the new SBF will have the same effect.
[Droid Pro General] ThiloH:
i can confirm that, i flashed yesterday with the SBF-File and the Verizon-Activation showed up, but i could skip it and it worked after it.
[Droid Pro General] rafeee2:
OK so I SBFd yesterday. Is it normal to have all you contacts, apps & widgets intact afterwards? The only thing that changed was that the network mode changes from GSM/UMTS to Global, and still no data.
[Droid Pro General] ThiloH:
As far as i know, the data you have on the SD-Card doesn't get removed when flashing.
[Droid Pro General] rafeee2:
You've already SBFed, what did you find after the phone restarted? What I'm saying is that EVERYTHING was intact, as if nothing has happened at ALL.
[Droid Pro General] ThiloH:
I did a factory reset before SBF, but after it it was like fresh out of the box.
[Droid Pro General] rafeee2:
Hmmm.. So we're still stuck here then. I think that unless the "select radio" menu shows other bands, we won't get data.
[Droid Pro General] fpont1:
mmmmh. I also have only "USA Band" listed in there but when I click it stops working here in Europe and I need to factory reset. So I guess the hardware capabilities of the phone are different from what you can select in this test application.

What do you see in the "GSM disconnects" section of *#*#4636#*#* --> Phone Info ?
[Droid Pro General] rafeee2:
It's always DcActivatingState this or DcActivatingState that, and after some time it turns into:

DcInactiveState disconnected with last try at XX:XX fail because Unknown Data Error

What's an unknown data error supposed to be!
[Droid Pro General] eug:
I just got my Droid Pro and can receive MMSes here in Australia, but can't send. I get either the National access coverage not available or service not activated messages.

It happens on both Telstra and Virgin. I can receive MMSes on both networks, just can't send.

I tried sending a short text message as an MMS and that won't go through either, so it isn't a size problem. Flight mode on/off doesn't help, and the phone is already in UMTS mode only with wifi off.

Has anyone found a solution?
[Droid Pro General] dettofatto:
Disable data with any software (such as disable data), and then you can recive your mms, then you can enable data...

Hi. I did lagfix on my i9000. Ive used ulf jfs all and it seems its lagging pretty badly. When i entered an app, while typing, and out of sudden, it fresze for a few seconds. After awhile. It loads again. Its pretty irritating though. And i need solution on how to fix that. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] munwaioblivious:

[Omnia 7 General] Antiskunk:
Has anyone else noticed that no matter how still you hold the phone, it still seems to blur the image?

It takes a tremendous amount of stability and light, despite the settings, to take a decent photo.

It's really getting on my nerves that I have to discard 9/10 images took with the phone when any other phone camera I have used before took pictures perfectly, no matter what settings were selected or how much the phone was shaking...

I take a lot of photos with my phone and this is really putting me off.
[Omnia 7 General] joeltimothyoh:
try activating the anti-shakiing feature when taking photos, it helps a little
[Omnia 7 General] Antiskunk:
That doesn't really help enough.

I just hope it's a software problem, maybe the exposure time is too long.
[Omnia 7 General] Cruzer1:
Nope, I've managed to be able to take good photos, but i agree, takes abit of effort. It's all in the technique imo :D
[Omnia 7 General] robnewton1:
actually i find it a lot better than most cameras on phones. ive got quite a shaky hand but id say im keeping more photos than im deleting. compared to the camera phones ive used (with various O/Ss) id say the omnia7 is up there with the best of em.
[Omnia 7 General] Antiskunk:
Maybe I've got shaky hands recently :s

My last phone was a nexus one and that did a perfect job for me.

I guess I'll get used to it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgottlander:
I have a problem with my sgs. Some games and apps looks too big, the resolution is too big. The strange thing is that some games that looked ok before is using the wrong resolution now, ex doodle jump. And some games which looked too big before now looks ok, ex city jump.

Spotify looked wired before their latest update, but works now.

Have tested a lots of different roms and kernels doc, voodoo, speedmod, yaok. Also fixed the 3-button combo. It's the same on all of them. Did a complete reinstall too JPA and the same problem occur. Now running JPA and yaok 1.50, same problem.

I think the problem is the new bootloader for the 3-button fix, but doesn't have another one to test with.

Someone have some thoughts or solutions?
[Nook Color General] jonwymore:
After getting the market up and running, i am unable to download apps or connect to gtalk on any public,non secured wifi network. However if i try using any secured network they work fine. When downloading apps it hangs on starting download. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone know a fix?
[Nook Color General] smaestr0:
I confirm, open networks are a problem

I can definitely verify this as accurate. I was beating my head against this for a few days off and on. Once I joined a secured network, everything worked as expected. On an open network, no gtalk or market apps downloads. Wierd.
[Fascinate Accessories] namebrandon:
Just picked these up and had a chance to try them out on a ~2.5 mile run the other day. Awesome. Buds always hurt my ears on longer runs, cables always got yanked or pulled, and cheaper BT sets had problems when jogging, and moving around a lot. Pairing was a breeze, and sound quality is very good. Haven't done anything phone-call wise, but I don't plan to use them for that purpose.

Just wanted to share in case anyone was looking for a good solution for a bluetooth jogging / running headset.

[Galaxy Tab General] rmanaudio:
We wont get 2.3 till sometime next year...BUT

I don't understand why we have not seen a 2.2.1 leak yet!??? The galaxy S has already gotten a few leaks of it.

2.2.1 is much improved!
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
A lot of what is in the SGS 2.2.1 update is already on the Tab.

[Galaxy Tab General] rmanaudio:

[Galaxy Tab General] Molezou:
What are those 2.2.1 features?
[Galaxy Tab General] knightnz:
It'll get an extra 0.1, that's about all we know for sure.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Quadrant scores are worth precisely *nothing*.

If you want to see this, try OCLF on your Tab - your Quadrant score will more than double, but you won't see any tangible performance improvement in real world usage.

My HTC Desire scores way higher than the Tab in Quadrant, but again in the real world performance is similar, and in the case of 3D games, the Tab is quite a bit better.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] rmanaudio:
You need to understand why with OCLF you get such a higher score!

In 2.2.1 Samsung did not change the file system and it still scores 20% higher with 2.2.1 compared to 2.2. Now with OCLF or Voodoo or any other lag fix the file system is changed and file move tests are done faster thus giving a higher score! But with 2.2.1 it is the same old file system so the improvements are else where!

Lots are saying that Samsung has finally released a somewhat optimized firmware with 2.2.1!
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
IMHO, everything is perfect, and keeps getting better with every firmware update. Just because they haven't added the .1 to the firmware number, it doesn't mean we don't have those benefits that others have seen. The Tab was born well into the late stages of 2.2 and Samsung are probable paying more attention to updating their devices with Gingerbread, hopefully ;)

Sent from my GT-P1000
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Exactly!

The Tab uses RFS, same as the Galaxy S, yet it does not suffer the same lag issues as the Galaxy S.

If the Galaxy S is now "fixed", this would tend to imply (to me at least) that the Tab already has those fixes.

That's not to say that an updated firmware would be welcome. All I was saying is that if you are looking at Quadrant to determine the "speed" of your device, you are looking in the wrong place because it is a deeply flawed benchmark!

I have personally run OCLF for a week, and then removed. I noticed absolutely *no* difference in overall real world performance during daily usage. I know that some people say that it improves lag on the notification bar, but I've never experienced any lag there anyway.

Dave
[Droid X General] fire3element:
Hi everybody. I just updated from the pre2.2 release the newest 2.3.340 OTA.

I was on Birdman's FlyX v1 ROM and had all 5 email accounts setup in the email app. I used the SBF 2.3.150 to get back to OTA stock, then let my phone download/install the new 2.3.340 OTA. I had all my apps and data after the update. I rerooted using z4root, and then installed ClockWork Recovery.

I wanted to get back to a custom ROM, so I downloaded Fission ROM Manager. Again I am still on stock 2.3.340 with all my data and info. I open Fission ROM Manager and download the lastest Fission Rom. I installed the ROM, but got stuck in bootloop. I had to wipe my cache and data to get it to boot.

Now I am in Fission ROM, and it runs just fine, but now none of my email accounts will sync. Was the email app in the FlyX ROM different than the one in the Fission ROM? I have 5 email accounts that I need to sync: hotmail, yahoo, ymail, gmail, live.

Only the gmail account will sync under the Gmail app. If I try to setup the same gmail account under the Email app, I keep getting the "Incorrect User name or Password". This is the same message for all the other accounts also.

I really need these email accounts up NOW! I have items for sale on Amazon.com and I rely on the email app to notify me of anything going on.

If anybody can help me out, I will be very thankful. I don't have enough time to search 100's of pages to see if someone else has asked this question already. I did do a few searches and did not find anything relevant to my problem.

I can not go back to my previous ROM cause it was the pre2.2 release and downgrading is not possible.

Please if you have any advice, email me: fire3element at gmail.com

Thank you. Have a Merry Christmas!
[Droid X General] andrewsayshello:
I am having the same problem after the latest update except I am not using a custom ROM.

My situation was a bit different as I had deleted some bloatware .apks and had to flash back to the stock 2.2 sbf. Once I did that I let the phone download and install the update which went fine, and then I also re-rooted with z4root.

Everything else works fine for me except none of my other emails will sync anymore. But if I do go in and manually try to sync them it works fine and will pull down the new emails. I also found that if I reboot my phone, it will pull down all my new mail for all my accounts once, then goes back to not working again.

I hope someone has an idea on what can be done!
[Droid X General] fire3element:
Well I think you got a little further than me.

Let me clarify, none of my email accounts will even setup. I start to set one up, and get to the Username/Password fields. Once I enter User/Pass, the next screen asks what type of account it is. POP3, IMAP, Exchange. I have tried both POP3 and IMAP with every setting possible. After "checking incoming server settings" it always says "incorrect user name or password". I had them all working till after I setup the Fission ROM. Everything else works a.f.a.i.k.
[Droid X General] fire3element:
Ok, since no one else is gonna help out, I will answer my own question.

Hotmail setup just fine.

Gmail can be added in the Email app once you set it up in the Gmail app.

Yahoo and Ymail both require a manual setup in order to work.

Yahoo Settings

Enter your Email and Password

Next Screen...

What Type of Account: IMAP

Next...

Incoming Server Settings:

Username: (your email)@yahoo.com

Password: do I really need to elaborate?

IMAP Server: android.imap.mail.yahoo.com

Port: 143

Security Type: None

Next...

Outgoing Server Settings:

SMTP Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Port: 465

Security Type: SSL

Ymail Settings

Enter your Email and Password

Next Screen...

What Type of Account: IMAP

Next...

Incoming Server Settings:

Username: (your email)@ymail.com

Password: (gimme your password and I will tell you how to enter it: fire3element@hotmail.com) LoL

IMAP Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com

Port: 993

Security Type: SSL

Next...

Outgoing Server Settings:

SMTP Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Port: 465

Security Type: SSL

Hope that helps anyone that couldn't get their email to work in a custom ROM.

Merry Christmas

My phone is technically hooked to the network atleast it is when im at home and the wifi is hooked i havent really caught it away from home cause I Wouldnt know anyway but i do notice sometimes right after i get home ill get like 5 text one after the other. Also if i go to mobile network options and choose either access point the simple or the T-mobile and then go to networks and search i get error while searching for network every time and it has yet to find t-mobile or att or cent or anything, just error.

Here are some nice widgets to check out:

BattStatt - nonclock

Beautiful Widgets (well worth the money via the market)

Desktop Visualizer - nonclock

Extended Controls - nonclock

One Seven - day of the week

SwitchPro - nonclock

Tajm - text based clock

TypoGraph - text based clock

Not a widget per se, but I'm a new convert to LauncherPro as a substitute app launcher. Its truly awesome and highly customizable.

Let me know if you have any problems finding them.

Woohoo! I wanted to make an announcement that although Swype is still in beta, it is now available for Free for Android owners (that meet requirements) and are accepting new beta signups!

Got the following update from the official Swype website:

I have an in-depth writeup of Swype at http://jonsuh.com/2010/11/swype-never-tap-to-type-on-your-phone-again/

You must still register at http://beta.swype.com/ to receive the link for the download.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Eskimo_Joe:
Thanks, but why is this in the development section?

any other Droid Inc users having issues with this beta?

Everytime I reboot my phone the swybe keyboard loses swype ability, still allows touch type though, and I have to reinstall to regain it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] DJ Jazzy Chris:
I've had that issue as well.

The fix I found was to switch the input method back to the stock keyboard and switch back to swype. It should start working like normal again without having to reboot and reinstall swype.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SteveG12543:
I had this problem no not than a week ago. I don't believe I for anything different, but its working upon reboot now lol. Rather odd. But yeah, just change input method then change it back to Swype as someone else said.

Yes the reboot phone-no longer Swyping issue is all over the Swype forum and is well known by their development team. It's pretty annoying, but the switching input mode "fix" works everytime.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dahauss:
wish I had seen this.. I have the same issue on my EVO4G. any fix for this?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RMarkwald:
Nope. I still have it, and I think that it is still a known issue with Swype. It doesn't happen too often on my install of CM7, but it has happened a few times. It is annoying but I love Swype, so since it's so intermittent, I can deal with it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
Agreed. It's just one of things you know you're going to have to do when you reboot. :cool:
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] HashTagHell:
I found another way around said issue. When Swype loses it's ability, long press>input method>chose another keyboard>long press>input method>chose Swype. Fixed.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Teksu:
Im using a themed swype that i found on someones twitter even though im in the beta, the official beta swype wont work after a reboot like mentioned above, but the themed one had no issues when rebooting.

Its based off an older build, but working is better than newest

thank you pieter3d
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ThugEsquire:
I used Swype for a long time, but ended up switching to SwiftKey for the day-to-day because it was more accurate and less annoying. I still love swyping, I just wish it had predictive capabilities.

Then I started flashing hella ROMs and now I can't get Swype to activate properly on MIUI, because MIUI doesn't disable keyboards the way that Swype wants it to. This forced me off of Swype... not to mention Swype having the no-longer-swyping-after-rebooting or no-longer-swyping-because-of-random-bull**** issues.

As soon as SwiftKey implements swiping, Swype is toast. It's up to the Swype devs to fix their hamfisted licencing issues. And while they're at it, implement skinning and design prettier skins.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mrschmitz:
I figured out how to remove the useless dock icons from Launcher Pro, it's a little bit of a workaround, but it works...and I love me some LauncherPro

1. Make a backup of a launcher pro home screen from another android device, without any dock icons or with the ones you want.

2. Copy the "/sdcard/launcherpro_backup" directory from your other device onto your Nook Color (into the same place on the SD card), and restore launcher pro from the backup. (I used Astro to do all the dirty work)

Here is a zipped backup of my blank launcher pro setup (no dock icons, no widgets, no nothing):
