hello my galaxy s keeps cycling the mass storage device. when i turn my phone on and wait for the mass storage cycle to finish it just keeps going over and over so it wont let me do anything to the phone is there any fix to this i also can not get into download mode as my 3 button combo wont work thank you for any advice
[Epic 4G General] NEXUS 4G:
May be kinds of a noob question but, If I wanted to go from bonsai to viper to whichever other one I wanted. can I go from One to the other with no problems or do I have to flash back to stock dk28?
[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
As long as the roms are the same version then you may switch. I.e.. 2.2 to 2.2 or 2.1 to 2.1.

All you'll want to do is clear data and cache on the flash over to remove the chances of conflict
[Epic 4G General] NEXUS 4G:
Ok thanx, but do I have to clear factory data as well. Or can I just do dalvik cache?
[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
No need to clear dalvik. The flash over does it alrdy. Clear the data/cache in cwm.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Anyone know how to change nat setting for tethering? barnacle doesn't work on my epic for one reason or another so I've been using wireless tether. Can't find or change nat settings. Then I tried easy tether via usb on my laptop. It worked for accessing the web ad what not on thelaptop but when I tried to share the connection through lan or connectify it didn't work. Lol all I want is to get online with my xbox or ps3 with open nat. Help!

Sorry for the long post...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onefast:
Has anyone had this issue? I went to check my sms and it just force closes... Rebooted and now it works, just all the messages were deleted. Not a big deal, just not sure if it could have received any messages in that time. Phone is rooted, stock rom, not a lot of apps. Pretty much stock all around (i'm lazy).

Thanks for any replies!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeryCoolAlan:
Is there a way to use it without having to go through the first stages like the registration I don't have t-mobile so I have no internet
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumatism:
the other way you can register is using wifi to do so. i dont think the google registration has anything do with t-mobile itself.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
HTC ROMs let you choose a WiFi AP, AOSP/stock ROMs do not (well, RC29 does with an adb command).

Anyway, I think all >=1.5 ROMs allow you to skip sign in, so you can then enable wifi, open a Google app and sign in.

Also there's an easter egg which works on some builds, where you can skip sign in by tapping four corner of the screen.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] traumatism:
ah i never knew that. i thought maybe it would have come as standard for those in low coverage areas for 3G/2G

cheers for that.
[Android Software Development] somewall:
I have a concept homescreen replacer where there are no "pages", instead there is one single horizontal scrolling strip, much like a film strip. Think Windows Phone 7, but with widgets, icons, folders etc and horizontal.

Look at the attachment if you dont understand. I would put the image in the post but I cant post outside links yet.

Yes, it is possible to see half a widget, but I thought about it and decided it will be to the user to scroll so it is displayed right.

I have no experience in coding but I am pretty good in graphics like my picture :D

Tell me what you think ;)
[Android Software Development] woody_2k:
I've been thinking about and attempting to create (with limited success so far.) something similar to your home replacement but Vertical Scroll rather than horizontal. To give you an idea it would look similar to The Zune Launcher or the but also be able to take widgets. Again no snap to screen (cant figure that bit out).

Good luck with this, it would be interesting to see what experiences you gain and what problems you run into. Similar to you I am fantastic with graphics but not too good at coding (not done any since C++)
[Android Software Development] Futur Innovations:
When I "jailbroke" my ipod ages ago, there was a tweak that was called "smooth scrolling" and it did the exact same thing described here. I think it would be awesome to have a free-scrolling home screen. I am working on a home replacement myself and it features a vertically scrolling home screen where the icons and widgets can be placed anywhere (not snap to a grid). If you would like to help, click on the logo in my signature to be taken to my site to see what I am working on. I could use a hand in graphics, myself. PM me if you're interested :)
[Android Software Development] con247:
I would prefer something that is like infiniboard for iOS
[Android Software Development] x986123:
This would technically allow widgets to stretch past the 1 page limit in LauncherPro, as in, you could have widgets large enough that they cut off, allowing for some GREAT theming and future uses.
[Android Software Development] somewall:
hmmm....interested but why vertical? feels a little to Windows Phone to me and i think widgets would work better scrolling horizontally. I looked up smooth scrolling for iOS and yep thats what i want with widgets and gridless. :D
[Android Software Development] iwasapirate:
I just want to subscribe to this and give my two cents:

I think any seamless homescreen app should still have the option at least of enabling a grid for apps and widgets. The idea of this as a functioning homescreen replacement could certainly get me to switch over from ADW, but only if it could satisfy my OCD needs for everything to be lined up juuuust so.
[Android Software Development] dscatto:
I think this would be a great thing to have, but I also would like to have an option for the widgets & apps to line up on a grid. while it is great to have the seamless scrolling (preferably horizontal & not vertical...maybe there could be an option for that as well) I like things to line up too.
[Android Software Development] Futur Innovations:
I could definitely make that an option for my home-replacement. I just want to know what people would want out of a home replacement so that I can model mine around the general consensus of what everybody wants. Oh, and why does everybody want vertical scrolling? Because its different. Sure Windows phone 7 has it. But it does it in its own way. Android is know for its open-ness and widgets. The wonder of Android is that anyone can do anything with Android, and its free.
[Android Software Development] Mr. Bene:
At first I want to say that the idea of a seamless lauchner is brilliant.

I had that idea by myself but I have no experience in programming.

I think I would prefer somewalls original concept with icons that fit into a grid and horizontal scrolling. To me it seems to be more useful on portrait format screens compared to vertical scrolling.

But anyway, I hope the best for you guys.
[Android Software Development] prodygee:
I think vertically scrolling widgets will work buggy this way. Unless there would be some kind of listener that stops the horizontal scrolling when interacting with a vertically scrolling widget.

Else both ways of scrolling will interfere.
[Android Software Development] sujal:
I like the idea, it's something that I would love to have on my phone! Just one suggestion.. I would like to see both horizontal and vertical scrolling, if it could be developed. As in, the user decides what kind of scrolling he wants, either vertical, horizontal.. or may be both? I don't if it's possible or not, I have no "serious" coding experience, as you may call it since am just in school! :P :)
[G Tablet Accessories] itonylee:
I personally own a 3g WCDMA version of zpad, which i believe it is the same as g tablet from hardware aspect. except with more memory and internal 3g card.

i opened up the zpad and found inside is a mini-pci of Ericsson F3307 WCDMA 3g card for the 3G connection. I knew the linux driver F3307 and F3507g (with built-in GPS) share the same driver source code file, It will be nice to have built-in GPS and therefore I decided to give it a try.

I bought a second hand F3507g and plug into the zpad to replace the original F3307. It looks really good at beginning, the cellphone antenna indicator show full signal strength, When I look into wireless & network setting -> Mobile network -> Access Point Name. I was able to see a full list of provider that available, which means it is working. The SMS works, I even received few message while i was play around with F3507g.

Unfortunately, for unknow reason, i wasn't able to get connect with 3G network, I am not a hardware expert, so not exactly sure why APN is available but just can't get connected.

and as for GPS, nothing show in the setting menu to indicate the availability of GPS.

nothing really got work actaully, but it seems if some know system better can get both 3G and GPS work relatively easy!

anyway, for these who want a 3G on their g tablet, Ericsson F3307 maybe a way to go! the 3g WCDMA firmwares are available here in China.

[G Tablet Accessories] insight3fl:
I belive we are missing the connector for the module which would rquire delicate soldering
[G Tablet Accessories] _Schizm_:
The connector is not soldered on, but the soldering isn't that bad since the connector is a through-hole component and the pads are quite large.
[G Tablet Accessories] itonylee:
That's true, it didn't seems too difficult to solder these. With little patient and some skill, it shall not too difficult to put Ericsson F3307 into the g tablet and get a 3G connection. The 3G firmware is also available in Chinese z-pad forum, and i believe that TNT lite also use 3G firmware.

What really bother me is why F3507g doesn't work in 3G while I was able to receive SMS and get a full list of APN. and I have no idea how to enable the GPS which make this modification all senseless to me.

I can not figure out how to turn off the mobile view option in the native browser. The option is no longer there. I hate mobile web pages and have always turned this off so my phone will load the full version of the site. I guess this is something google removed from the browser in gingerbread. Crazy.

Hi all, I noticed this thread but sadly no replies... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866933

Basically I am a shift worker and am looking for a shift workers app that will replicate a shift pattern through the whole year or between predefined dates. Also as my shifts do vary from time to time the app should allow for replicated days to be changed.

Many of my iPhone colleagues have an app that can do this but not it seems on Android.

I sync my Calendar items with Google Calendar so I could add them manually that way but it will takes ages.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] francescod:
Hello, after reading "iPhone colleagues......" I started to search something. I'm a shift worker too and I've not ever felt the need of, but you are right! so I've found these apps:

-Gemini calendar

-Shifty lite

-Work calendar lite

let me know which is the best, I'm start to testing!

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] n_dex:
Hi,

there is an app, called "Quick Addroid" on the market. The app adds shift patterns to the standard calendar. You can define your own pattern.

[Focus General] 10scientist:
Hi all, it is my first thread at xda :)

I just want to confirm if the samsung focus will work in the UK for 3G. I apologise if this has been brought up already (I found a similar thread, which says it should work for UMTS 1900/2100, but I just want a confirmation)

Omnia 7 Bands: GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS1900, UMTS2100

Focus Bands: GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS850, UMTS1900, UMTS2100

I wanted the Omnia 7 because of its better look, but I want to put all my songs into my phone so the Focus would be a better buy considering the possibility of getting a 32GB microSD card!

Thanks!
[Focus General] TheGuitarPlayer:
Well that would entirely depend on what carrier you connect. If you connect to a carrier that runs their 3G network on the 850MHz, 1900MHz, or 2100MHz band, you'll be fine.

Also you should note that 32GB cards in the Focus don't seem to be very reliable yet.
[Focus General] foxbat121:
UK carriers do not use 850 and 1900 band. Although 2100Mhz 3G band is a common band for EU, if the particular carriers also uses 900 or 1800Mhz band, you maybe in trouble.
[Focus General] 10scientist:
Thanks for the replies!!

In that case I will go for Omnia 7then, and get myself a MP3 player meanwhile. It's a shame that omnia 7 only has 8/16GB, even my omnia i900 can support 16+32 GB!!
[Focus General] foxbat121:
You will find out that Focus doesn't really work well with majority of the microSD cards out there anyway.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] adamrob69:
Using VB, im trying to add an application bar in the code (rather than xaml). I have the following code:

Public Sub New()
InitializeComponent()

Dim appBar As ApplicationBar
appBar = New ApplicationBar
appBar.IsMenuEnabled = True
appBar.IsVisible = True
appBar.Opacity = 1

Dim icon As New Uri("/Images/expand.png", UriKind.Relative)

Dim cmdStart As New ApplicationBarIconButton(icon)
cmdStart.Text = "Start"
'AddHandler (cmdStart.Click), test_click()

appBar.Buttons.Add(cmdStart)

' Set the data context of the listbox control to the sample data
DataContext = App.ViewModel
End Sub

However when i run it in the emulator there is no application bar! No error either. It is a pivot application also but this shouldnt make a difference surely? any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Tom Servo:
The application bar is accessible via the ApplicationBar property of the Page class you're deriving from. You don't need to create your own instance.

[Nook Color General] hendersonn:
Hey guys, my nookcolor has been randomly rebooting since i rooted it. Never while i was using it, i just sometimes hear the bootup sound, and look to find that my book is now on.

Im just concerned this will affect my battery, and i also don't want it rebooting while im using it.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
I noticed it doing this one time, but right after i powered it off. In use, it has never rebooted on me (yet)..

This is why we so desperately need a custom ROM. Remove the B&N bloat, and start with a clean 2.2 (or even 2.3 now) base, and really open her up..
[Nook Color General] Pinesal:
I still want to use the B&N stuff. Any rom that emits them, I will not be installing.
[Nook Color General] rogerdugans:
I think it likely that there are NC users in both camps-

Those who want the B&N stuff and those who don't.

I am one of those who don't; the Nook for Android software does better for reading ePub, imo and I am rarely near a B&N store.

Right now we have root and Market plus B&N and I would guess (could easily be wrong) that the first custom roms will be pure Android with no B&N.

We will probably end up with an option to set while flashing: retain B&N customizations or straight Android.

I base this guess on what I have seen in the other roms for various devices (mainly Droid) I have looked at.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
Same here. If I want to read B&N books, I could still use their Android app on a custom ROM.

After switching to Cyanogen on my phone, it's been quite relaxing to not have to worry about provider updates bricking the thing or otherwise screwing up the rooted customizations (or just randomly resetting the thing back to factory defaults because I started up one of their apps and it got confused). Not to mention that the CM team does a far better job supporting the device than the manufacturer and my service provider does.

And yes, like other Android devices, there will probably be ROMs in both categories: completely built from scratch with no B&N portions at all, and improvements on the B&N system to add more functionality.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
Fair enough for those that are interested in the reader portions - i have to admit, i bought this as a tablet, with literally 0% in it as an e-reader; i already have a Sony 505 for that. I may use it on occasion, but only as an afterthought.

However, this topic is really drifting - perhaps we should just bring it back to the rebooting issue?
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Yeah, I installed the Uptime Widget on my NC today and picked it up a few ago and its uptime was 1:30; max 15h (from before it rebooted 90 minutes ago). I'll keep running it.

What we need to do is get a logcat when it happens.. So maybe overnight I'll leave it running or something. It just rebooted on me and I was semi-watching it, didn't even notice but Uptime Widget was reset to 7m up, 15:30 max..

I have started up a logcat and I'm going to leave it running while I get ready to go out for the day.. Although I just installed and fiddled with Google Earth, which failed badly, so I wonder if it caused some problem. Also saw it happen after playing with Google Maps, so I wonder about Location stuff maybe doing it.. Dunno. I just launched Maps a few ago and it's been up since. Hopefully a logcat will capture some info.

I have noticed that I've seen some crashes that don't show the Crash dialog.... TweetDeck is particularly bad about crashing viewing some Facebook posts, and in this case it just goes black for half a second then back to the list of posts. A logcat shows it crashed. But I don't know the two are related (not having the crash dialog stuff and the reboots that is).
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
I had it reboot on me twice last night, one time I didn't know about it until I picked it up later and noticed the uptime widget was down to some 30 minutes, and another time right before bed I hit the power button and about 10s later I saw the boot up text and a reboot happen.

Still haven't caught it on logcat.
[Nook Color General] jasoraso:
My doesn't reboot spontaneously, but it does "lock up" and won't turn on with the power button from standby occasionally. If I remember to use the Nook Button to wake from standby, I don't seem to have this issue. If I use the power button, and it won't wake, I need to hold it down for ~15 seconds and it reboots.

AFIAK, it has done this since I purchased it (I rooted after about 1 hour with the NC in my hands).
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Mine has never reboot WHILE I'm using it, it's sneaky about it. But I suppose I'd much prefer it reboot while I'm not using it than while I'm using it; I have yet to have it do a full reboot while using it.

Trying to set up a Delicious account.. yeah, that rebooted the Java VM. :( But only time I've made it reboot at all.

Hahah, damnit, it just rebooted after it went to sleep. I seriously think it has something to do with going to sleep. I've been sleeping it and waking it repeatedly on adb logcat and it won't crash. Figures.
[Nook Color General] isolated_epidemic:
I had this same issue a while ago. I don't have the logcat from it, but from what I could tell is was some sort of error coming from the system dimming the brightness before turning the screen off. I had Extended Controls installed and was using the widget to adjust my brightness. Whenever the screen would dim before turning off I would get a reboot. I have since uninstalled it and have had no issues with reboots. I'm not sure if this is the issue youre facing but thats my story.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Actually not using any of those on mine.. I have Beautiful Widgets in ADW and Beautiful Widgets + Note Widget in WidgetLocker.. Not adjusting the backlight at all either, in fact I don't think I have at all since getting it now that I think about it.
[Nook Color General] mastroiani:
I have the same issue: rooted Nook Color reboots occasionally and it does seem to do it whenever I put it to sleep or it goes to sleep by itself (when the screen dims). It hasn't rebooted while in use, but it does reboot occasionally when left alone. Have no idea why.

From apps that control dimming I have Advanced Task Killer installed besides the stock app that controls dimming... Could it be the issue? I will uninstall Advanced Task Killer and see if that help.

Otherwise I love my rooted NC. It's fast, beautiful and works great as an E-reader and an Android tablet.

to summarize: Do you think it's the hardware issue or software. I've heard of people who have non-rooted (stock) Nook Color having the same rebooting problem, but apparently it doesn't have to do with rooting. Do you think it will adversely affect the Nook?

If anyone finds a solution please post here. It would be tremendously appreciated.

Thanks and have great holidays.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
I suspect it's a software thing, as it doesn't randomly reboot in use, it ONLY seems to happen going into standby, and I have YET to make it happen connected USB for adb.

You know actually, I think alogcat can log automatically now, maybe I should try that.. but it'd have to run for a day or so, as I only see this happen like twice a day at most.
[Nook Color General] wvcachi:
Do you have setcpu installed? I was getting random reboots when I had it on conservative. Switched to ondemand for all profiles, and no more reboots!
