The only software I tried to install was flash, and it said "not for arm," so I was thinking maybe out there would be a repository where "arm architecture compatible packages" were located, or would list packages compatible.

So may be one of this packages would run?

http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qemu/

How to install? Could someone better in linux please test to get qemu running?

Newer qemu versions than 0.9.1 are reported to have bugs in ARM TCG.

I can boot win98se on hd2ubuntu dosbox and use with mouse and keyboard but qemu is more than 10 times faster.

May be bochs would be better.

Sorry for asking but I think it is a very important standard feature of every linux distribution to emulate Windows. At useable speed including network.

Would be realy great if a linux user could help me.
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] plopper:
seems as a no to me.

say that remark about windows on any linux forum and you get flammed.

the only way you get real usable speed is when the emulator has direct access to the cpu, like virtualbox does with the kernel modules.

the cpu has to support that tho, and i doubt qualcom has that feature.

is this possible to use after loading MAGLDR?

I guess not. Ubuntu is launched through haret.exe which is a winmo binary. :)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faizt20:
This is my first android phone and I'm wondering if I am doing anything wrong. Yesterday I charged my phone and it was at 83%. I unplugged the phone and went to sleep, when I woke up this morning the battery was completely drained.

This happens a lot. Even if I am not doing anything it still drains like crazy. I just text, make some phone calls and it barely makes it through the day. I don't play any games, no gps, no Bluetooth or anything. With my plan, I don't have a data connection so I can't connect to 3g/4g so that shouldn't drain anything.

What could I be doing wrong? When I'm done using the phone I tap the power button on top, the screen goes black - to sleep I presume and I put it away. I had an iphone before this and I did exactly the same thing and the battery lasted for 3-4 days on one charge.

Whenever I see what's using up the battery, the display tops the list. The display is using up 75-80% of the battery. If the phone is asleep for most of the time why is the display using up that much battery? Am I not putting the phone to sleep correctly?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] option94:
If you cant connect to 3g/4g, you should turn it off in settings. Otherwise, Your phone will constantly look for a signal, draining your battery.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CBConsultation:
Battery life is all relative. Every single person will experience different battery life. The apps you have installed, the amount of time you spend on it and the time you spend on/in each app, distance from cell towers, distance from Wi-Fi sources, settings you have for every app and things like sync and what not.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werk:
The first thing to check is if your phone is being affected by the init or suspend bugs. The good news is the former has an easy fix, and the latter can be temporarily fixed by a reboot.

First, download & install Watchdog Lite from the market. Then open its preferences and check "include phone processes," "monitor phone processes," and "display all phone processes." Then just use your phone as normal. It may take a while before you get an alert from Watchdog (and maybe you never will and it ends up you have a different problem). But if you do, note the process that is the culprit.

If it is the init process, go to settings>applications>development> check "usb debugging."

If it is the suspend process, reboot the phone. It should keep it from happening again for a while.

I know the second answer isn't really an answer, but so far it's all we've got for that problem. There is more information on the 2 problems in these threads:

Init:

Suspend:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=872839

Good luck...I had both of the problems and my phone didn't last to dinner time. Now I get better battery life than the iphone 3GS I had before this...about a day and a half of moderate use.

EDIT: also you'll probably want to go to settings>wireless & networks>uncheck "mobile network" since you don't have a data plan. No reason to have that on since you don't have a data plan.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netter123:
I installed this using the Moderate setting, and then selected those options as recommended in preferences.

Does Watchdog use a lot of system resources when running in this manner? Will it cause the battery to drain noticeably faster?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] werk:
Completely unnoticeable, IMO.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faizt20:
I installed watchdog lite and I have had couple of alerts. I got suspended couple of times and I also got Android system once.

Android system - 50.1%

Foreground

Suspend - 54.4%

Linux Process

I turned off the data usage from the settings and it did help save battery. The display is not using so much battery life anymore. It went from using 70% to 35%.

Edit: Battsatt reported that the battery was at 93%. When I saw the two alerts above I rebooted the phone and Battsatt now starts reporting the phone is fully charged.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shlongwoodian:
You just summed it up right there. You are experiencing the 'suspend' issue, period. There is no app you can install to fix it. There is no app you can uninstall to fix it. There is no setting you can adjust to fix it. There is no fix for the 'suspend' issue, literally.

I started the following thread in an attempt to consolidate posts and hopefully work toward flushing out what the real issue is...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=872839

This is a real, legitimate issue with Android 2.2.x Froyo. As I linked in my post, this is Issue # 11126 on Google Code...

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=11126

If there was an app or setting that fixed the 'suspend' issue, we wouldn't even be discussing this right now. There are fixes/workarounds for a lot of things, but right now, the 'suspend' process issue truly is a mystery. No one, not a single person has yet to post, "this is the cause of the issue," let alone a fix for it.

I wish you had a fix man, I really do. My fiancee experiences this and there's only one way she's found to sort of workaround it, sort of - she reboots her phone every morning. This seems to keep it at bay, at least more so than when she doesn't reboot each morning, once she takes it off the charger. She still gets it though and she's just used to looking for Watchdog and checking her processes now.

This thread could go on and on forever but it comes down to this:

- The MT4G does not have insane battery drain and will give you about 12 hours of life, under normal>medium usage. If your battery is draining insanely quickly AND if you're seeing the suspend process jacked up so high, then there.is.no.fix.yet.

There might be a ton of other replies after this about uninstall this, install that, change this, don't use widgets, use widgets, etc. Those attempts will be futile.

Hi,

I think that I have a small but vexing problem with the browser. I tried to search about it, but it seems that I'm the frist to notice it. Pratically, when I use the browser in vertical mode, this issue there is not. But when it's in horizontal mode, whilst I click to link-bar for inserting an url, the url previously isn't pointed out by the system and so, to insert a new url, I must delete the previously url by the delete key. Someone have an idea? This issue is also in Dolphin Browser HD and so I think It's more a keyboard problem than a browser problem...

Thanks for your attention!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Valeo:
I've had this issue since upgrading to Froyo as well, but I couldn't find the "Froyo bugs" thread, so couldn't be bothered to post about it. ;)

Anyway I don't think it's a keyboard issue as I've experienced this with both Samsung's stock keyboard and Better Keyboard, so I think it's a bug in Webkit or some other related library...

Edit: btw, you you can press and hold on the address bar and tap "Select all" and then start typing.

I have a question..

In alot of android treads i see the words "old cam" but what does that mean??

Does is mean that the camera layout is the same as the layout from an "old" android phone?

or does that mean the camera works on old android drivers.. so there are not much possibilities like changing megapixels or going from sepia to grey or using the Youtube camcorder 10 minutes application..

i don't know.. i hope you understand what i mean..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rudgey:
It refers to the drivers that are compiled into the kernel so I believe! What functionality differences there are between the two I don't know!

However I don't know whether to use the old or new drivers either (the rom I use provides kernels compiled for both!). Does anyone know which one I should use??? I can't ask my rom dev as I can't post in the dev section (not enough posts). I'm running nexushd2 gingerbread by tytung if it helps to answer!

Just want to share with you guys..

I finally get the new market to work (no fc anymore) by coincidence, after flashing the new update of cyan for milestone.. :D

Here's what ive done,

first of all, i backup the old market (mine was v1.8) using titanium..

and then i insert the new market to the "gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip" file, by replacing the old market/vending.apk

after flashing cyan, then i flash the gapps file that have been modified before.. the installation worked great..

after that, i tried it.. it's fc as usual.. then when i was going to revert it back to the old market using titanium, theres only data only, i tried that..

amazingly, it the new market worked.. i dont know how, but it worked.. :D

im now downloading apps from the market.. :) well i hope it'll work for you also..

With the upcoming Froyo update coming in the future sometime I have never been able to connect with Kies. It is always stuck on connecting device have tried it on two computers with the same result. What other tips can anyone give to correct this (have already searched the forums and read numerous threads) or will they actually release a Kies for the Captivate. Would like to have the ability to move data back and forth from the mobile device without jumping through hoops.

Thanks, Roger
[Captivate General] CatFan:
Sounds familiar

charrog,

I've had my Captivate since August and I haven't found anything to get it to reliably connect to a computer. It seems that others on here have tricky connections at best. I've managed to connect but nothing reliably. I've had Kies, Kies mini and USB connections all work at times and not work at times. I've had 2 different Captivates and 5 different computers I've tried with. I've used Win XP, Vista and Win 7. They all acted similar so I do not think it is a Windows thing. You will find numerous "fixes" posted on here but if you do your homework you will find that none of them work for everyone and different "fixes" work for different people. If I had to guess I would say that it depends on what you have installed and configured on the phone and the computer before you know what "fix" might work for you, if any work. Either way, it's a crapshoot trying to get connectivity between the Captivate and a computer. Hope you have better luck than I have had.
[Captivate General] Picsman:
I'm running Windows 7 Professional and a virgin, er ah, unrooted Captivate phone.

Device Manager reports Windows sees the phone as a portable device: SGH-I87. The two drives are accessible from C:\. The drivers are properly installed because under USB controllers I see SAMSUNG Android USB Composite Device. From Windows I can navigate both the SD card and the phone's built-in storage.

But I have never been able to connect to AT&T's server using Kies Mini. Well, never is not correct. I initially installed Kies Mini For Captivate 10082_8_1 and could connect and got a response my phone was up-to-date (or something similar). However, at one log in Kies automatically updated to v1.0.0.10104_1 and since that time no connection has been possible. Kies just sits there saying I should connect a phone which I do and nothing happens at all.

Other stuff: 1) I removed Kies Mini entirely and reinstalled the original version. No sooner I booted the old version up and it updated again. 2) The first version wanted to connect with USB debugging "on." The new version explicitly says to turn USB debugging "off." 3) It's curious the updated version of Kies Mini is not the one on Samsung's AT&T support site; the old one is the only version there.

It's my conclusion the phone is fine and the drivers are fine. Kies Mini is either incompatible with the phone or with Windows. Just how AT&T and Samsung intend to back out of this mess is hard to figure.

Just why neither AT&T nor Samsung choose to communicate on what's going on confirms what we all know. The technology is pretty good but the concern--or appreciation--either company expresses for its tech-savvy public is frustratingly, totally absent.
[Captivate General] CatFan:
Samsung's way of dealing with the Kies not working issue for me was after a 1 1/2 hour phone call to tech support that got upgraded to a tier 2 tech the final result was "I'm sorry sir but Kies is not supported in the United States." They suggested looking in the market and PURCHASING software that would allow me to connect my phone and computer together. Needless to say, my next phone WILL NOT BE A SAMSUNG!
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
For me this works 100% of the time.

1. Make sure kies mini is closed

2. Connect phone using usb cable with main usb port- no extension cable and no front ports

3. Phone should be set to kies mode or ask

4. If asked select kies on phone but either way wait for phone to go past intializing and say connected

5. Open kies mini on pc

6. Kies should see your phone

7. If server unavailable close kies and reopen (sometimes 5 times)

8. If update found you may see another server unavailable message- try again
