can someone please run the product code checker from SGS Tools or SGS Toolbox and repost or pm me with the proper product code for the Rogers I896

i am guessing SGH-I896KZAROG

but just want to make sure

PS - if you have a proper product code in your nv_data file.

would greatly appreciate a 2nd favor.

-download Hex Editor free from Market.

-open hex editor

-use capacitive menu button to open options and select open file

-go back to menu using capacitive button and selection jump to address

-enter 0188000 (will take you to line 00188000 which is where we need to be)

the lines i am interested in will all be on screen: 00188000, 00188008, 00188010, 00188018, and 00188020

if you could please post the hex code for each line (to the immediate right of each line you will see 8 blocks of data in green text each containing two letters/two numbers/or combo of letter/#)

I need the data from each of the 8 blocks from those 5 lines.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pshdo:
Hi forum...

Today I tried my gps in my desire hd for the first time, and I am really dissapointed when I compare it with my SonyEricsson X10...

On my trip home from work it never managed to log on and show my possition.

When I got home I installed "GPS test" from marked on our 5 android phones...

I then put them side by side in a window and started the software...

The 3 sonyericsson phones, x10i, mini and mini pro, and my 2 htc phones, legend and desire hd.

My x10i locked on fast, within 15-20 seconds, and with accuracy of 3-4 meters on 10-11 satellites constant after about a minut...

Mini and mini pro got arround 8-9 satellites, and about 8-12 meters accurate, within 2 minutes...

My desire hd, used 3-4 minutes to log on, and had 6-8 satellites, accuracy never better than 32 meters...

And when I touched it, it often lost signal again...

Last my legend, about 10 minutes, 4-6 satellites, and never better than 48 meters...

Is HTC just that bad making gps compared to eg. sonyericsson, or do I have two faulty devices here, that are no more than two month old...?

What is your experience with GPS on android phones, compared to the desire hd ?

Should I try to factory default my htc phones and try again ?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivierlee:
I tried both on my Desir and Desire HD and both get a fix in about 10 s. Both also see the same number of satellites, in my case 11. Desire had an error of 2 m while HD 4 m.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quark_star:
Try installing GPS Status from the Market. When you run it for the first time, it downloads the latest A-GPS data.

Also turn use GPS satellites on in the Location options of the phone (if you haven't already) and give the phone a restart. Leave it on after that.

I usually get a lock in ~10-15 secs in Google Maps :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pshdo:
I found an application on marked called "gps status and toolbox" and among a lot of other information it can also tell how long the phone use to get a lock on the gps...

My desire hd use arround 78 sec every time with this...

- my sonyericsson x10i use 8 !

And with a much better initial and overall accuracy on the x10i...

If this is not common problems with htc phones, then I just might have two different htc phones here with the same problem...!?!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulus_01:
the first fix takes some time.

When I now put my DHD in its holder behind the windshield it takes anywhere between 10 and 30 secs.

Sometimes even under 5 secs....

Quite happy with how it is working now ;)

When I was out with a friend in a car testing the phone GPS, I got a lock on after like 10 seconds...

I can't get a lock on after 5 mins now using GPS test... :confused:

//locked in 10 secs after I put the phone in the window... I feel dumb :P
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sean2390:
Hmm, I had a problem with my old DHD where it wouldnt get an accurate lock. I sent it off to htc and they sent me a new phone. Looked like the gps module wasn't working properly.

i get a lock on in 3 seconds 5 sats and on google maps it gets me stood at my door stop so nothing wrong with the gps its got to be your phone
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivierlee:
3 s is very quick. Did you change travel a long distance between the time you checked the position in front of your door and the previous one? If you far from your last fix point, and then try to get a fix, it'll probably take more time than that.

Hey, was just noticing when building my ROM that I can not seem to get the Vanilla lockscreen to behave like the HTC one... When I plug it in or unplug it from a power source on Vanilla the screen stays black but on HTC it wakes on plug or disconnect. Does anyone know why or what I might need to do in order to get the same functionality out of Vanilla lockscreen that I get with HTC?

Thanks in advance.

Am i the only one experiencing this? Can someone with a vanilla lockscreen test for me please. Maybe it just isn't possible to wake on connect and disconnect or maybe I removed something I need in framework. Just trying to narrow it down here. Thanks.

Hey everyone! I am interested in making a list of Android Tablet-Compatible Apps. Could you do me a favor and list the ones that you use that are compatible with your tablets? I'd really appreciate it!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
What do you mean "Tablet-Compatible"? If you just mean apps that run ok on the Tab in fullscreen mode, then that's going to be a BIG list as the majority of things work fine.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] futuregerald:
I think he means apps optomized for the tablet form factor and size; apps like pulse. This is as opposed to apps that simply scale well like the Kindle app which works fine and scales fine but the whole applications i still the same exact app that is the one being used on 3-4 inch phones. compare the regular kindle app to the iPad version of the kindle app and you'll see the difference between something that works well on a tablet and something designed to be used on a tablet
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
That's exactly what I mean, is optimized to run on the Tablets as compared to optimized for a 3-4 inch phone.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Yes and you see it also when you look at the apps Samsung created like for example the email app and the calendar app. If you change to landscape mode you get a split window view which is really nice on a tablet.

I'm an app developer myself and right now I'm hesitating if I should write apps for tablets. I think there can be a lot done in this respect. The dilemma is that Google announced specific development support for tablet apps in honeycomb. This creates the question if one should develop for the tablet right now and do a lot! of extra work or postpone it until Google releases a programming framework that makes it a lot easier to create ui's on tablets. Though question.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] appelflap:
See my response above. It is really a question if we are going to see tablet specific apps on short term
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] BuglessFan:
It is, probably tough, to decide to have to potentially do things twice, but I'd expect that if you think you can pull it off to ship even a month before others get their apps coded with new APIs and such, there'd be a tremendous advantage to building up first mover and the app to be measured against.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
I am personally thinking that with the boom of android tablets that is about to happen and the release of honeycomb that is bound to follow, that people who get in on the train early can reap some serious benefits...

But, to each his own I guess. I will keep looking!

Hi,

i was able to boot the nvidia linux4tegra from a SD using fastboot and modifying the kernel command line. So i think it's possible to get a working linux on the tab.

(Sorry for my bad englinsh)
[Folio 100 General] halu85:
Do you know if there is a how-to guide we can follow??

Thanks
[Folio 100 General] wolfx:
1) Download the Linux for Tegra 10.9.3 at http://tegradeveloper.nvidia.com/tegra/downloads

2) Follow the PDF doc to prepare your SD

3) You need to extract the kernel from any folio 100 roms to use it with fastboot. Place it in the same directory as fastboot.

4) start the tab in fastboot mod : Power X3 + Vol up

5) From a shell use the following command :

./fastboot -c "root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rootdelay=15 rw mem=448M@0M noinitrd nvmem=64M@448M vmalloc=192M video=tegrafb console=tty0,115200n8 fbcon=rotate:1 fbcon=font:VGA8x8 usbcore.old_scheme_first=1 debug" boot <kernel_name>

Not sure if a separate post is needed but, after the Galaxy email app, it would be nice to have tab specific apps categorized as such within the exisiting thread or on the gtabfans wiki. Just a thought.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Allenfx:
I think all the working apps should be put on the gtab fans wiki...that way we can all have a single exhaustive source of info rather than searching through threads or constantly re-hasing it.

To the Op. There is a thread (i think over in the general forum about a gtab fan website).

Check it out i think you will like. They have started a wiki that includes working apps that anyone can add to or edit.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
Mainly what I am looking for is applications that are designed more-so to run on a tablet compared to all the apps that are designed for 3-4 inch phones... I'm thinking I should have been clearer.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Allenfx:
Hey that gives me an idea.

How about a subset on the gtab fan site wiki? One for all droid apps that "work", and then a subset with a listing of the ones that are designed specificially for the larger tablets?

Do you mind going over to that thead and suggesting that? I am getting off work here in a minute and am packing up.

What is the best way of sending your txt message conversation to an email, or have my PC back it up.

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stephj:
Crude but effective, is to tap and drag over the entire conversation to select it, then tap and hold and select Copy from the pop-up menu.

Paste it into a new email message and send it, or paste it into Pocket Word and save it. Copy it to your PC through ActiveSync.

To do this programmatically requires negotiating the POOM interface which is a bit of a pig at the best of times.

I am not the original author of this program, it was created by computerjunkie. He graciously posted the source code when he stopped development, so I picked up where he left off. The original thread can be found here.

Cloud SMS Backup reads your SMS account and backs up the conversations by emailing them to an account of your choice. You can have them sent as separate emails each containing one of your conversations, or have all your conversations zipped up into one email. It also gives the options to empty your SMS account after backing up to prevent the slowdowns of having too many messages.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExPLO88:
Hi Guys,

First off, I am using the Desire Z unlocked on Telus. I do not have my phone rooted, nor unbranded. It is completely stock (Bell Branded) only modification was the unlock via unlock code. The phone is running 1.34.666.5 software, and kernel 2.6.32.21 if that helps anyone. I purchased via a friend, who gave me the original purchase receipt (for warranty purposes). However he has since left for Kingston now that the holidays are over.

The problem I am experiencing is via my calls. About 75% of my calls experience random mutes, where the other person can hear me, but I hear just silence. Sometimes it will happen soon after a call, sometimes 20 minutes into a call, completely random timing and duration. Most of the times, the other person will hang up thinking it is their phone and call me back again, only to have the same problem again...

It gets worse though. About 25% of the time, people on the other end have told me via text, since they can't hear me, that my sound is coming very scrambled. Like an alien frequency jumbled up. I can't explain the sound but I've heard it and it sounds really weird. Obviously, they hang up, and call back but the same sound remains.

My only temporary solution to these problems is to restart my phone. I don't know how long I will be able to talk on the phone again before one of these two problems hit me again, at which point I have to do another reset.

I find myself resetting the phone about 5 times a day.

My hope is that this is a software issue, and that an update will fix this scrambing/muting out problem. I wanted to know if anyone else had any sort of issue with this, or what I can do to resolve this.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try making calls from a friends SIM card.

Maybe try popping your SIM into another phone and trying that too...

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExPLO88:
I am with Telus as my Carrier.

I will try the sim in another phone. I would hate to have to return it without the original purchaser being present - I imagine not being a Bell customer (even though I have the original reciept) would make it more tricky.
