[Captivate General] stuff:
I don't think it depends on the current.

With my factory charger, if I insert the charger in and kinda pull out one side of it, it will think it's a computer and I can "mount" my sd card. so it might be a certain way the connectors touch inside
[Captivate General] Phoenix-Lead:
It depends on the charger, but yes, the phone for the most part can tell the difference. It has to do with the voltage that is put out.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
It has nothing to do with amperage (unless it is under 500) and everything to so with charging source. Wall chargers basically short the data wires to indicate AC charger and car chargers do not.

There is a thread in accessories forum discussing this and mods to get full charging out of car chargers. I did it by modding an extra cable. My car charger puts out 1 amp but the phone never draws more then ~ 750 mah.
[Captivate General] boborone:
Every time I read one of your posts, in my head is McGyver's voice. Hearing him narrate the xda forums is hilarious.

From a phone
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
The phone can take up to 1000mA of charging current. But only if it detects it is on one of its supported AC chargers. Draw more than 500mA on a PC USB port may damage it. So, there is special wiring needs to be done for the data PINs on the USB port. That's why for generic car charger and wall chargers, it can't only assume it is PC USB port and charges at a slower pace (500mA). You will need the Samsung AC or Car charger to charge at higher current. I managed to mod one of car charger to be recognized as AC charger (no USB prompt). And you really need it because if you're using the phone as GPS navigation device, 500mA won't be able to sustain it (battery will keep be drained). You need 700ma or more.
[Captivate General] thabeast:
It also depends if you have your USB connection set to a default if you will get that pop up when you connect it to any other than an AC charger.
[Captivate General] tbong777:
Yes it does and is sensitive. I have been using a BT headphone charger and I would be perplexed that my phone showed 100% but pull the plug and its at 87% every morning AFTER recalibrating the battery.. LOL

Decided to use the Samsung Charger and no such issues. Needs those extra Milliamps.....

I want to keep myn's black market. Every time I uninstall the new market and reload it the new crap is back;how do I fix that? I know I just made a similar topic but the problem is slightly different and the solution didn't work. So any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
I did a nand restore to previous market, then before opening market I froze Market updater in TB. Then installed Black Market and presto no update.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
Do I have to do a nand restore fir it to work like that?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
Well you have to somehow freeze market updater before the market updates. Once the market updated for me I wasnt able to flash back to black market. So I had to do a nand, if you can flash the black market successfully id just freeze market updater then flash away.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
I am able to go back to the black market by uninstalling the update. So does that mean I just freeze it after I uninstall but before I reopen it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifly4vamerica:
Yep uninstall update, then freeze market updater. See how that works for you.

So I was doing a fresh flash of AXURA 2.5 this afternoon and during the middle of the process where I had to enable lagfix in the recovery, I noticed three options were tagged as "false".

DATA_LOOP - false

CACHE_LOOP - false

DBDATA_LOOP - false

These toggle to ext2. I was wondering if anyone knows what are the advantages or disadvantages of enabling these options.

Hope I was clear enough that someone is able to answer my question.

Thank you

My understanding is that they really don't do anything other than artificially inflate quadrant scores at the risk of corrupting data.

I can't tell the difference, so I leave them to false just to avoid data corruption.

you guys shouldnt worry, its real simple. just plug in the hdmi, click the widget to switch to tv and click ok once the screen switches.

angry birds is tough but im gonna try with a mouse at some point.

but i streamed the first episode of pens/caps winter classic in standard def and it looked fine, luckily found the 2nd episode in 720 and played that right from the internal storage and it looked fantastic.

then did a little super mario world and the audio kind of sucked but the game played fine on the big screen
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zizoom:
One good thing to know :

I've tried the HDMI output on several TVs (love to show my new toy to all of my Apple friends :p)

BTW sometimes when you plug the HDMI before switching the TV to the right input the TV doesnt recognize the signal.

So before switching to the TV from the Archos always do in this order :

- Switch TV to the right HDMI input canal

- Plug the HDMI wire

- Click on switch to TV

Never had an issue doing it in this order. Not saying that I was very worried the first time I tried as I had a "input not recognized" message Doooh !

[myTouch 4G General] thepza:
UPDATE: This looks to be an update for the "GO Launcher" as that launcher now has special Christmas-themed launcher buttons. It's interesting that it didn't present itself as a regular app update, though.

Restarted my MT4G an hour ago and was welcomed with a message:

"Merry Christmas"

"Christmas gift has been prepared for you! Load it?"

I checked around the office--no one else with an Android (including a MT4G) has received this and I've found no comments online about this.

So I went ahead and selected "Load it." A few seconds later, my wallpaper was transformed into a lame Christmas themed wallpaper that said, "Merry Christmas" in cursive.

No other changes--and it didn't ask me if I wanted to install anything.

Wassup? Anyone else seen this?
[myTouch 4G General] chrisjs81:
I believe the payload size is limited in the Android Market, so many apps will load additional resources and themes on their own by other means. Sounds like the GO Launcher is periodically phoning home for internal updates.

I created a "Media" folder on my sd card, then in that folder I created "Icons", "Music", "Notifications", "Pictures", "Ringtones", "Videos", and "Wallpapers".

Then in the settings menu go to "Sound" then "Voice call ringtone" and choose your ringtone.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
.....what are you using to clean the phone?

please dont say windex, or anything that is in a liquid form
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sherifone:
the screen has an oleophobic coating that helps reduce smudging, and by using any chemicals you'll rip it right off the screen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] songsterq:
Just microfiber cloth, no liquid or chemical at all
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinan:
holy crap, I was just looking at my phone today and noticed this as well (I noticed it this morning before I read the thread, not the other way around lol). But ya... only had it for a few days and I see some spots where the coating is coming off I think. If I run my fingernail over them I can feel a very very slight roughness... I'm quite unimpressed with this, as my Vibrant has been dropped many times and the screen has held up fine.

I'll try cleaning it a bit (I never use anything other than a microfiber cloth) and see if it helps out... if not maybe I'll exchange if more problems come up.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingkee:

Yikes. Looks like I see this as well. 2 spots - lower left and lower right corners. No sp. Only cleaned a with a microfiber cloth a few times. Oddly the 2 spots are the 123 key and the enter key exactly. Seeing as how those are not the most often hit keys for me I wonder what is causing it to seemingly wear off.

Can we contact Samsung regarding this or is everything through best buy?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
If anyone is experiencing this go get a new phone. I spoke with both Samsung and Best Buy today and they both said the same thing - this is not a "normal" issue and you should return your phone. I swapped the phone with Best Buy without any issues once I explained the issue and they saw where it was coming off.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psosmith82:
Unfortunatly im experiencing this issue on my ns, and so this and the fact my phone keeps soft booting during phone calls, its going to have to go back. Have yet to have one android phone that hasnt had to be exchanged at least once. Was hoping the nexus would be the exception
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irishrally:
I don't see this issue at all. I keep my NS inside a sunglass hut microfiber pouch and clean it constantly with no sign of any coating coming off.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
As you can see on this phone it forms in the shape of a tear drop. My other phone it happened next to the ear piece and was much bigger. I've been through 4 nexus S' and it has happened on two. However, the other ones I didn't keep more than a day because they had touch screen issues (the right side of the phone would become unresponsive)

I have provided a couple of pictures

IMG_1535

IMG_1539

It seems to be a defect in either the AR coating used on the phones or the oleophobic coating. I'm just tired of returning the phone to best buy, I'm going to be put on their S-list.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyijedi:
This is exactly what my screen has as well, although the mark is a little smaller. As long as it doesn't get bigger, which it hasn't yet, i'm going to live with it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
Well its very worry some, it wasn't on the phone when I purchased it, I made sure since it already happened to me once. This time I was just cleaning the phone with a microfiber cloth and a small square developed, after a couple more wipes to tear drop shape developed. Now I'm wondering if more areas will start popping up. It's definitely a defect. Perhaps it the Anti-reflective (glare) coating they put on their phone?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
are you sure it isnt a mark under ur screen protector? cause seems that u do have one in screen nr2.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
I'm not using a screen protector. I can see how you would think so, because the bottom left side of the screen looks like it has something on top of it. It's just a conveniently placed reflection ;-)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyijedi:
Are you sure it wasn't there when you bought it and you missed it? I'm asking this because the mark on mine can be hard to see sometimes. The area has to be smudge free, and I have to hold the phone at a certain angle in the light to see it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
100% sure. As soon as I got it I smudged the screen up with finger prints and saw nothing. I actively looked for it because I had an issue almost as severe as the OPs problem with my first phone. In fact, this issue developed last night. I've had this phone for 6 days (longest out of the 4 I've owned previously). Last night I looked at the phone and noticed all the fingerprint smudges, took out the micro fiber and wiped it down. Saw a little square area that wouldn't come off. wiped it a few more times and then it became the tear drop spot you see now. wiped it again and another small square area has developed next to the tear drop area.

It's a defect. I just dont think best buy wants to see me again with another $529.99 phone to exchange. But I'll keep doing it till they kick me out. :-)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
Bingo! Its the Anti-Glare (Anti-reflective coating) coating

I might be showing my age, but old computer monitors used to get this issue due to the AR coating coming off with time, and that was without having to touch the screen or have your oily face pushed up against it. The same thing happened to multiple Trinitron monitors I had. Here are some examples. While they may be exaggerated, they are the same issue.

I don't want to exchange my NS because of my one mark for the fear that I'll get another unit with a worse problem, but this crappy coating has helped me decide to get the Best Buy insurance. If the mark gets worse or if I get more marks, I'll make the exchange.

I have yet to ever buy a "perfect" phone. I was hoping this would be it, but oh well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitalsmoke:
Yeah its upsetting this phone has a defect. Since its not a huge selling phone it will probably never get fixed. I am fairly pissed since I did spend half a grand on the phone. I'm going to best buy to get #5. Hopefully it will last until my clairevue screen protector arrives.

Thank you very much. As others have stated, the Shipped Roms site is/can be very slow or they will get about half way done and stop. I happen to have a MegaUpload monthly account and use the download manager and I started to download all of them before I went to bed using 3G and they were just finishing up when I woke up. As for having rooted versions, the original RUU's are what come in handy when you need an official version when you are having problems. You can just hook up to computer and it will fix any problem. Then, just run Simple Root or Unrevoked and you are set. I don't know why all the developers use all kinds of different servers that require you to pay for faster speeds. Some allow you to still use MegaUpload or others that you might have paid for, but I don't want to have to pay for a new service for a faster download since I don't have 4G service. So, this was an early holiday treat to find for me. Again, thank you......thank you.....much appreciated.
