[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesey10:
I think the general consensus on these forums would be that you need to root it, and ROM it. The stock android release that ships on it is littered with problems that power users like us can't handle, and Samsung doesn't have a thing on current vibrant developers who consistently make the phone amazing.

That said, 10,000,000 of these things have been sold and most people are oblivious to the issues on this phone. They use it and it's incredible hardware without issue.

@brian_ventura Tuesday and weds they were runnig a promo for free vibrants for contracts and upgrades..

Does anyone know if I can eliminate the data plan or is it part of the 2yr contact??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larryvand:
Until the dual core phones come out, the Vibrant is the best phone money can buy IMO. It has the best screen in the business, a great loud speaker, super fast CPU and GPU, lots of memory and memory expansion, tough as nails to brick and the best developer support on the planet.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuryAC:
I know this may be a repeat, and if so i apologize. I tried searching the forums but there was nothing in relation to this issue specifically....

I went to a concert on New years with a buddy of mine (who has an iphone 4), and we both recorded videos. The video quality on the NS seemed to be better than the 'iPhone 4", however the nexus audio quality in the video recording was just horrendous. the iphone 4 played the exact same video with lower video quality, but crystal clear audio.

on the NS you could hear nothing but BASS levels. Can anybody explain to me:

1. Why this happens on the NS and not on the iphone4?

2. Can this be solved with using an external headset?

3. Will this be fixed in any patches (720p recording, etc) or is it a hardware issue?

I'll upload the two videos for you to compare.

Edit: I'll have to get the actual video file from the iphone, but this should give you enough of an example.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
may have something to do with the software based noise cancellation
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuryAC:
Wait, is the Nexus S not hardware based noise cancellation? Correct me if im wrong, but the nexus 1 had a second microphone just for this?

Unless this is patched, this might be a dealbreaker for me as I use my camera recording, and audio recording frequently.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
yup NS only has one microphone, i believe it is because there are some new noise cancellation stuff in 2.3...that doesnt really work
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
unless we are dealing with the some audio auto gain, like the same problem found in the SGS phones
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuryAC:
Thanks for the response guys, this might just be reason enough for me to go back to the N1 until the NS has better updates.

Hey,

sorry if this has been discussed already. I searched but couldn't find an answer.

I am wondering if I can tether the Galaxy tab from my blackberry Storm. ie. share the data from the Storm with the Tab.

I know about rooting the phone and changing the setting to allow wifi tethering. It seems to me that this only applies when tethering an Android device to the Tab via wifi. This wouldn't work with my phone because it doesn't have bluetooth.

So is there a way to provide internet to the tab via bluetooth from the Storm?

I tried Bluetooth tethering with my iphone 4 and was able to pair to recognize the iphone 4 and also on the iphone the galaxy pad was recognized however if you try to connect - the iphone 4 does not connect even though the Galaxy tab says it is paired.

Not sure what is the issue here. I read in the other issues with Bluetooth keyboard that they also have issues pairing certain keyboards.

I too want to use my iphone 4 data plan on the galaxy tab for data usage.

Anyone tried this or experience same problem?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nashi20002003:
Not sure why this had to be done by Google in Xoom stock rom. Archos had has this feature. At first it would not work with BB. Then a forum member discovered the issue was the compression parameter. Recently archos incorporated this fix in the newest firmware and BB are tethering fine now.

Ordered a Galaxy Tab today. I will see if I can figure this out once it's here...

I have no problem on my blackberry 9780. I can tether this devices internet connection via bluetooth. the app name is PdaNet. Along with this app you can tether blackberry's connection to any device via bluetooth. It was successfull with my ex tablet.

however I couldnt manage to connect my galaxy tab. the issue to solve is the tab.

if we can find to connect this table via bluetooth (for internet sharing), the problem would be solved.

Perhaps this better belongs in the threads pertaining to cm6.1 as opposed to posting a rom specific question in general as there it would receive better attention from people knowing how to deal with it as well as less clutter for those not using the specific rom you are asking a question about.

yesterday i reflash the rom

(before that i had flash the DJ.steve 1.5.2 and official 2.2 )

before i flash 1.6 all is fine , then i flash the 2.2..:eek:

i get into the recovery mod(recovery.stock.new.img) and flash

done... and auto reboot....then stuck on dell logo over 20 mins

and i took off the battery , restart hmmm and stuck forever on dell logo

i try to reflash other roms but i just can get into the the mode which choice the

1~4(factory reset.....poweroff) but everytime i choice the recovery mode it just

turn to black screen and stuck

i also try use fastboot to flash other recovery img (Clockwork recovery , Streak

recovery) all is the same...XD

does anyone had solution or method?
[Streak 5 General] Krisbo:
I had issues getting into Clockworkmod so I flashed Mistadman's recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=840326 and then had no problems. Just remember that when it boots recovery, you'll get a Dell logo with an exclamation mark inside a triangle. You need to press the power button for the recovery menu to appear.

Failing that, QDL tool could take care of it.
[Streak 5 General] danmohozy:

[Streak 5 General] CGI_Ram:
I might not be following your problem clearly...

But if u can boot up... try loading ROM Manager (market)... it looks like that app puts the latest Clockwork on your device with one click.

(I did not load mine this way... but looking at the app that's what it can do).

hmm

but i cannot boot up into andriod so....

If you can't boot or get into recovery then QDL is your only option. Follow the steps here:

Hi,

I know some people use hand break, i downloaded it tonight but without a proper guide, i cant make head or tells of the settings. I am posting here instead of on hand break to request specific step by step directions on getting DVD video onto the GTAB!.

One of the reasons i specificially bought this thing for was as a multi-media device so that i can watch from air planes, air ports, etc without using a lap top.

I am not asking for any illegal hacking/copying advice.

I specifically just want to load 2 or 3 movies a week that i LEGALLY RENTED AND PAID FOR from netflix onto the device to watch once and then delete to make room for the next batch.

A guide specifically for Vegan 5.1 would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Allenfx:
Yea it seems i just need a quality DVD ripper. I dont mind paying for one, something with an easy to use, user interface and a boat load of output formats. I have downloaded several "trial versions" in the last few hours and testing them out.. currently testing out cucusoft ultimate...i like how its going so far...

I travel Mon-Fri so i may actually have a few more practical uses for a tablet than most....

Edit: Update, cucusoft ultimate worked perfectly in 720 mode, using the trial version. (it puts a water mark on the screen that reads "trial version") so will have to buy a key if i like this thing.

It has a very nice feature where once you set it up..it pretty much just auto runs when you insert a cd, then its just drag and drop onto the gtab via usb once its done encoding.

Trying the HD H.264 mode now. :)

PS. Sound is AMAZING with a nice pair of bluetooth wireless head phones! (Thumbs up)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] joshua.lyon:
Have you tried the DivX Plus Converter? The installer is included with the standard download, but the DVD Plug-in is $10. And to unlock some of the more mobile-friendly profiles, I'm pretty sure you need to upgrade to the Pro version ($20) which has a 15 day trial.

It's kind of pricey for a converter, but it has a simple to use interface and it's by DivX themselves. I haven't used it in a long time, but even the versions from a few years ago were pretty decent, so I have to imagine the latest versions are pretty good.

There's also a great site called VideoHelp.com which has some great articles on DVD backup and/or video conversion.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sixvoltsystem:
I would suggest if you have an nvidia graphics card get an app called Badaboom. It will use cuda to encode video's to a number of different formats. And it does it really fast. then just load the avi or mpeg and play in your media player.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] orangezero:
DVD shrink (easiest) or DVD decrypter to "rip" the movie files. Both are free, but don't always work with the newest movies.

handbrake is a pretty good one to use to convert. The best answer is to just try something shorter, like a tv episode, and convert them a few different ways. Then load it up and test it out. I know for the psp you could make the movies super small and they still looked good. WIth a 10in screen i'm sure you'd notice the lack of quality, but it would depend on your expectations.

For what you are wanting to do, I wouldn't spend a ton of time thinking about it. You can go crazy with all those settings. Start off with one of the profiles and see if it works. If they have an ipad one that would be the best. Or perhaps the iphone 4. The higher resolutions are going to take longer to convert, and also are more intensive for the gtab to play.

I would guess most movies would be around 400-800mb with decent quality on the gtab. I thought the gtab liked .mp4 better than .mkv, but can't remember where i've read that. I haven't put much video on mine yet.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] bnovak:
Look into the DVDFab products. Worth the $$ and they keep getting better. And, the new version strips region encoding and protection. It'll also do all kinds of nice stuff, like you can pick what type of output you want and if you want full DVD or just the movie itself.

If you have already ripped the movie, Freemake video converter is super duper easy, and free download.

However, keep in mind that it's technically just as illegal to rip a rented DVD as it is to download.

I haven't had any issues with MP4, AVI or MKV files so far (MKV is by far my preference)

Oh, and get a 16 or 32G memory card. It's enough to make it to Asia and back :)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Madoc Owain:
Is there any technical reason that a ripped DVD (.VOB files) couldn't be played back on the gTab? Or is it simply there's no product (yet) that has been created to do it? I'm waiting for video lan (VLC) player to be released, which will probably do it, but I'm surprised there's not something out there already that plays DVD format files.

What u do is download another rom where u like the phone app. Then put that file on ur sd card.

The keypad is in DialerTabActivity.apk. You'll want to follow the same steps above to copy that over the current DialerTabActivity.apk in /system/app/. The Phone.apk controls the screen that comes up when someone calls in or when you're in a call.

Hope noone minds unburying the thread. Is phone replacement a way to fix the problem with the phone app losing phone call even when I press home button?
