Thanks for the review. Daydeal pics of it looked alright, I kinda liked it. Seeing your pics (and reading about GPS loss of signal) and it looks like crap. :\
[Vibrant Accessories] SykesAT:
don't think my pics do it justice. It actually looks quite nice. Regardless, it's not worth a damn due to the GPS issues.
[Vibrant Accessories] down8:
I rcvd my hybrid metal case today. It is quite sleek, and gives some bit fo weight to the phone - a nice feel to the textured back as well.

I haven't tried GPS yet, but mine has been garbage from day one, so I'm not too owrried.

I switch between cases often enough, so this is just one more for the pile.

[Vibrant Accessories] down8:
Ok, tried GPS, and didn't see a difference.

Locking 7/12, 25-35ft accuracy with or without case, on an overcast day in the central valery.

[Wildfire General] white43:
I'm fairly sure someone will have an answer to this.

I rooted my Wildfire with the Unrevoked method - all went well.

Backed up with Nandroid.

Installed custom rom, but it kept boot looping. So I restored back to the nandroid backup.

OTA update for Froyo now asking to be installed on the phone - so I say yes, it starts the install, reboots the phone and then stops at the recovery screen with an error about

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

What have I buggered up?
[Wildfire General] grognaz:
i have the same problem with updating the rom, the problem is that its rooted and the only way i found to install froyo is to install the original RUU which will wipe all my data and i have no idea how i can restore my data when its updated:(

cant find the link to teh original roms at the moment:/

edit: ah there it is http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Buzz/
[Wildfire General] grognaz:
i found a solution, i could install the rooted rom from here and it updated without problems and all my settings are still there:D

[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
First of all, you have to seek for the option "disable signature check" in one of the nandroid menus.

Then there are several options. If you want the slightly modified OTA witch causes LOSS OF ROOT PRIVILEGES:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Espaa Valorum:
I did several searches, but was unable to find an answer to this. I hope one of you can enlighten me :)

I recently installed the "Listen" app to listen to podcasts. When i plug in the stock headphones that come with the Captivate and then click the mic button on it, it will bring up & control the media player playback instead of Listen. Is there a way to configure the behavior of this button? Is there a way to keep it from bringing up the Media Player app and instead control the Listen app?

Thanks!

[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Hey guys,just received my DHD today and have a very annoying issue.

Starting off,I was stupid enough to import my contacts via bluetooth from my Desire(with HTC's Data Transfer) and it copied ALL of my contacts,including facebook ones,to my DHD's contacts.Then,because I didn't want my facebook contacts along with my normal ones(cause I have more than 800 contacts on facebook) I thought "I'll delete them all and google will sync the ones I want to my phone" and then deleted them all.

After that,I tried syncing with google but to no avail.It synced no contacts at all.No matter how many times I tried,the sync icon in settings started turning for some few seconds and stopped.And that happened again and again and again,each time I press the sync button.What's more,the arrow-and-circle syncing icon next to google's contacts will not disappear,it will stay there without moving.

I also tried disconnecting this account but it says that I cannot do that and that I would have to factory reset,WHICH IS WHAT I WANT TO AVOID,I had to restore many many apps manually(don't want to root yet) and don't want to do it again if possible.

ANY help appreciated!Thanks! :)
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Log into GMail on your computer and check your contacts there. I'm hoping you didn't inadvertently delete them too when you deleted them off your DHD and pressed sync.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
No,happily all of my contacts are there!Phew...

But still,the phone won't do anything.Strange is my Desire is alright...Or at least it seems so! :(

Thanks anyway!Appreciate it! :)
[Desire HD General] Andy:
That's good to know.

Try this. Settings > Accounts & Sync > Tap your google account > Untick Contacts > Menu > Sync now > Now Reboot

Once booted up repeat, but put a tick in contacts.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Did that and guess what?It did something different!That's a surprise! :p

Anyway,seriously didn't expect it to do anything.But all it did was to say that Google sync is facing some problems and it will be back up soon or something like that...Guess I'll have to wait!

:)
[Desire HD General] Andy:
Hopefully it should sort itself out.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Well,until now it hasn't sorted anything...It keeps giving me the same error... :(
[Desire HD General] andreasy:
Judging from your username I am suspicious of something. You must be in Greece on Cypus I guess so, do you use any Greek localization?
[Desire HD General] 0l-ROB-l0:
I got a sync conflict and did the following to fix it...

Turn off Contacts sync:

From Home screen > Menu > Settings > Accounts & Sync > Google > untick Contacts

(you should also kill any Facebook sync enabled for the moment)

Then clear Contacts data:

From Home screen > Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All tab > find 'Contacts storage' and open it > Clear Data

...then turn on contacts sync again and it should do a fresh sync from scratch.

This should fix your problem as it will pull all the contact data freshly from your Google account.

Good luck.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
I am a proud greek indeed! :p

And if by localizations you mean the greek language and menus yes,I do...
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
I'll try it and report back!thanks! :)
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
It worked!all my contacts are back!thank you very much robhorsefield!
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Well,it did sync but without the contacts being connected to facebook...And most of them were on my Desire!Is there something I can do about that or should I just connect them manually and be done with it?

Thanks again! :)
[Desire HD General] andreasy:
There is known issue about this and I was going to suggest you turn back to English but if you sorted it out by the previous procedure, it's up to you. If it doesn't work 100% give it a try and change to English and compare. I gave up with Greek as the HTC Likes and similar services don't work ok.
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Τι τραβάμε ρε φίλε με τους μαλάκες? :p

Anyway,I'll try and see what happens!Let's see if it brings facebook connection back to my contacts...Thanks! :)
[Desire HD General] 0l-ROB-l0:
Great to know it at least helped you part of the way.

Did you re-enable Facebook sync after? I found it can sometime before it links them again.

Certainly can't help you with the Greek side of things! :)
[Desire HD General] tolis626:
Well,it's good to know someone wanted to help!thanks guys! :D

Anyway,facebook link is the least of my problems!I can do it manually again!although for the greek side of things I know you cannot do anything...that a$$hole Papandreou(our president or whatever he is)is to blame! :p
[G Tablet General] GaryHypnosis:
Just bought the G Tablet and it worked well the first day (all stock). Now second and third days with it the touchscreen will not respond. The problem is more noticeable at the top of the screens. Some buttons require a harder press than the resistive screen types.

I saw a thread with a solution for running a calibrate screen at startup, but now I can't find it and I can't remeber which section of the forum it was located in.

I did not have a micro SD card available when I read the post and I did not save the URL to the post.

Could someone please help. I would like to do the ROM mods but until I can get the buttons to respond that would be impossible.

Thanks.
[G Tablet General] NMCBR600:
create an empty file named calibration.ini on the micro sd card. reboot.
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
You're looking for this thread, I believe.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=863741

What the last poster said will absolutely work, if you have a Micro SD card handy. If not, look for my post on page 8, there's an alternate TSCalibration file that works with calibration.ini placed in the internal SDcard area (i.e. /sdcard instead of /sdcard2).
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
TnT Lite 3.0.0 and the latest VEGAn beta 4 prototype (14) has this altered TSCalibration binary, also.
[G Tablet General] GaryHypnosis:
calibration.ini

Thanks to everyone who replied, and yes that was the post and thread I was looking for. The first time I tried to do this fix, I typed configuration.ini instead of calibration.ini. So I thought the fix did not work. Once I was able to see that I did not have the calibration.ini file in the root directory, I was able to put it there again and the calibration worked 100%. My touchpad was so bad I couldn't even get into the directories to see where I was in the directory.

I can see why many of these tablets are returned. VS, if you are reading this your tech people had no idea how to solve this.

It is hard to believe that something as simple as moving a required file over to the internal micro SD card could have saved lots of agony and Viewsonic has not caught this.

I bet this problem is the reason 60% or more of these tablets are returned!

This simple procedure did fix the problem for now. The posts I have read all indicated that the keys were somewhat sluggish. That was not the case for me.

The device would not respond at all to the touches on the Information button, network connection button, home short cut or any of the (soft) buttons at the top of the screen. I can't believe this procedure made so much difference. I could not get the web browser to even open the keyboard so I could type.

I thought for sure that the whole top half of the screen had a bad controller chip and the whole screen was going to die soon. I was very close to boxing this up and returning it to Sears. Now, I want to at least give it until after the new software is delivered (via update) before I decide. I live in Las Vegas and if I return this I am sure there will be newer, better, faster tablets on display at CES. This purchase was for Christmas so I still have plenty of time if I need to return it.

Now that the touchscreen is working again, I will try some of the other mods.

Thanks all again, Gary.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Well, as the title suggests, I have the chance of a mint Galaxy S for £200. Should I buy this or should I pay more for the Nexus S?

What are your reasons for upgrading from the Galaxy S?

Thanks
[Nexus S General] DarkAgent:
No lag, working GPS, fast updates, FFC, flash with back camera, etc.

TouchWiz > Vanilla Android, though, in my opinion.

That said, if you can afford it go with Nexus S. If not, stick with SGS.
[Nexus S General] Sanbourne:
I would go for the Nexus S. It will stay up at the top for a while like the N1 did
[Nexus S General] Mujja:
Depends what you want to use the phone for. In favour of the Galaxy S is the microSD card slot should you need more storage, better camera for stills and video and better built in codecs for video playback.

In favour of the Nexus S is a more stable OS (may be too early to tell yet) and a working GPS (not fixed on the GS AFAIK)

I don't have either phone though. Didn't go for the SGS because of the issues and leaning in favour of the NS, might get one this week.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Thanks for your input ...

I am not too fussed about the front camera, though I would like a working GPS. Is it seriously that bad? Not working totally or just a little hit and miss on the GS?

I like the codecs of the GS, enabling the playing of any video format though I am sure that will come in time with the NS.

Thinking of using Darky's custom rom anyway as I don't like touch wiz so I guess that should sort stability issues?

Just need to weigh up whether to drop £250 more on a brand new NS or go with the GS for £200.

Hmmmm
[Nexus S General] Mujja:
There's a post about lag in web browser which is a bit worrying at 95% of the time I use my phone for browsing. I was all set on ordering one today and then read the thread about yellow screens and now I'm not so sure again.

Already bought and sold the DHD and then the HD7 after less than a week with each phone. I need to make sure I get it right this time :)
[Nexus S General] Mujja:
If you're happy flashing ROMs and applying tweaks then I'd go with the GS. For the £250 you save you can buy a nice dedicated satnav and still have money left over, that's if you needed a reliable GPS.

My reason for not going with a SGS is I like a phone to be as vanilla as possible. I've always looked for lite ROMs with all my previous devices. I'm too old for flashing and tweaking now and just want something that will work out of the box.
[Nexus S General] Ronaldo_9:
i was in the same boat but decided to try SGS , tho i would get discount on NS but there was ONLY 2 things NS had over SGS for me....LED flash and looks. I'm not a fan of stock android apps like camera and dailer. I use launcher pro anyway.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Decided to hang fire for a while on either ...

If the Nexus S had been full price it would have been a cut and dry decision but with the price reduction I think I will wait and see how the development of the Nexus S goes and maybe pick one up a bit later down the line.

The GS isn't quite what I want so even at £200 it's a compromise!

[Desire General] 3722:
It will definitely work, given that it's an original Sandisk card.

I am a bit suspicious about that, as nowhere except on the illustration (which they put only for "visual approximation" of the product) is "SanDisk" brand mentioned.

Nevertheless, the card may be working but it's not a good sign that they are promoting it with the name of a renowned manufacturer.

I suggest, that you post in the accessories section and ask for a reliable seller for 32GB cards.
[Desire General] ukgtitch:
There is no possible way that's a real branded SD card, as a real one would cost $100 or so for 32gb as mentioned below.

Compare the price to: http://cgi.ebay.com/SanDisk-32GB-32...C_Drives_Storage_Internal&hash=item5ada9f58b6

Fake SD cards WILL work but will usually work at slow speeds, corrupted transfers and SOMETIMES as with mine.. it says 32gb but if you transfer more than 8gb on the card it will corrupt and not work, from past experience, anyway.
