Just updated my post on the Q&A General forum, and updating everyone here, apparently it seems that the normal G-Sensor fix isnt working with the 1.2b as it should, and I have the solution for this. If you head over to the G-Sensor fix post I have outlined what needs to be done. Dont know what changed in RaiderX's rom or some of the others, but this new method seems to work. Again, may not work on some phones, still dont know exactly why as of yet, still think its a revision of hardware issue.

[Vega General] phfaty:
Guys,

Looks like the folks at the Modaco Advent Vega tablet forum are also using the VeganTab version of the ROM for our Gtablets. Would any of the ROMs on their rom download page also work on our Gtablets?

Here is the link: http://android.modaco.com/content/a...6486/advent-vega-rom-software-updates-guides/

Anyone know if any of these Vega roms would work on the gtablet without modifications? Looks like they're also using the Vegan rom that the developers here made for the Gtablet.
[Vega General] clemsyn:
I just tried Big Ideas ROM in our Gpad...It works but its all in chinese, have to set language to english and wifi is broken. Other than that everything seems to be fine. Had to build a boot.img though coz the included boot.img wont work.

UPDATE:

Figured out how to change language from Chinese to ENglish and did a wifi patch. Everything is functional so far. Will do further testing and might release Big Ideas ROM for our GPAD. BTW, its pretty snappy :)
[Vega General] clemsyn:
This Big Ideas Rom dont even need a market fix. :)
[Vega General] proengin:
Have been using the the Big-ideas variations since 1202 on my Zpad. Have had no issues with wifi, lag and market. What I did was NVFlash Big Ideas ROM then made a GAPPS update with update.script to delete all Chinese apps then pushed the Google apps. This has been working out quite well.

I guess what Rothnic proposed about using Big-ideas as a base then add Vegan stuffs is heading in the right direction.
[Vega General] roebeet:
Rom 1.06.05 (VEGA) is the base foundation for VEGAn beta 4/5, FYI. A lot of this is intermingled.

I do like that link, as they seem to update it frequently.

[Vega General] rcgabriel:
I'm confused... I thought that ZPad 3.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853310) already *was* essentially the vanilla version of the Big Ideas ROM, with the Chinese language stuff stripped out.

[Captivate General] ptc62:
Was wondering what experience people had with using their captivate with their car stereos. Preferably via usb cable. If so, how much success are you having? Experiencing any problems? If not, how do you have your usb settings configured. I just bought a pioneer avh-p4200dvd and it gets hung "reading data". Was really hoping to get this working via usb as I dont have the cash to fork over for the bluetooth addon just yet. Any thoughts and help would be much appreciated.
[Captivate General] GAMacky:
Read the manual for the radio to see what it expects. I would imagine that you'll have to set the phone to mass storage mode. Some HU's have strict rules to where the audio files are located. Some have folder limits. Some require the mass storage to be formatted certain way. Some can only read fat16 formatted mass storage, some can read fat32. Hope this helps. Good luck.
[Captivate General] jc2470:
Most headunits can do bluetooth now and works really well to stream bluetooth, but put in mass storage mode and u will prob need ext sd card not the main one. and that should work

[KIN One and Two General] dezgrz:
Today has been hell with my Kin. I awoke to a dead phone. I plugged it in.... nothing. Tried another charger....nothing. Manually charged the battery to get through the day and decided this was bull**** and to go see Verizon. They were pleased to give me a new kin(lost all of my contacts) and they sent me on my way. I was content until I left the parking lot and the phone would not boot. I returned and they claimed it was a "software update" and would restart shortly. After 10 minutes they found this was not the case. So here I sit with my 3rd Kin. Luckily zune has all my media synced so It's no big deal besides the fact that I won't be in contact with anyone I don't see regularly for quite some time.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholasbgr:
Hello guys. I'm going on a long trip this week so I decided to fill up my NS with tv show episodes to watch on the plane. I'm using Handbrake to convert 720p files (1280x720). I want to use the maximum of the screen without losing or distorting anything from the source, which resolution should I use? Do you guys have any preset to share?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Are you trying to re-rip to save space? If not, have you tried just throwing what you already have (you said files, not disks) onto the sdcard and seeing if they'll play?

The Nexus S has the same resolution as the Nexus 1 (800x480) so you might find more recommendations googling around for what works with that (or any other 800x480 screen Android phone (EVO, Desire, etc)).

I saw these recommendations for handbrake in another thread: ffmpeg -i inputfile -s 800x480 -vcodec libx264 -acodec libfaac -ac 1 -ar 16000 -ab 32000 -aspect 16:9 outputfile.mp4

Other suggestions are to start with the iPhone preset, and then tweak up to our 800x480 resolution.

I haven't ripped anything to the Nexus S, yet; I got a bit spoiled with the Galaxy S i9000 and the fact that it would play just about anything I already had just fine without doing new rips.

[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
Are all of Apple's OEM iPhone wall chargers (the white little square looking one's) rated at 1 amp? They're cheap on eBay and I like their small form factor and want to pick one up for my Captivate. Thx
[Captivate General] clemmie:
I use one and they work fine.
[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
^If you have your charger on hand, would you mind checking to see if it outputs 1Amp?
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
On your phone, go to Settings->About Phone->Status->Battery Status. If it says "Charging (AC)", it is charging at the max amperage the charger can offer (up to 1A). If it says "Charging (USB)", it is only charging at 500mA, the max a PC USB can offer. I'm pretty sure for iPhone/iPod chargers, it will show later case on our phone because it is not wired according to Samsung's AC charging requirement. I knew this because I had a 3rd party Car charger that was designed for iPhone/iPod and it won't let my Captivate to charge in AC charger mode. I have to open the charger and make a few mod myself to let Captivate to recognize this is an AC charger, not PC USB.

On the other hand, my 1A charger from Kodak Zi8 flash cam works w/o problem with Captivate.
[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
ty for the reply. I modded a usb retractable cable by shorting the middle connectors and when I go into settings it shows it's "Charging AC". This is with a generic 700mA usb wall charger I got with a cheap connector kit for my old iPhone.

Anyway, I recently got my Captivate and I find myself constantly playing with it, but it kills my battery doing so. I just want to charge my phone as quickly as possible so I can continue playing with it some more (in a good way).

I like Apple's wall charger because it's small.
[Captivate General] newter55:
From what I have read they are rated at 650 mv so fox is right that they will show as a usb connection. I have never really paid attention and am making a relatively uneducated, yet randomly tested, through my own purely subjective method of simply plugging my phone into anything that will allow my usb cord access, guess that anything with a female usb connection is fine.

Li-ion batteries are kinda dangerous so I am pretty sure there is some sort of idiot proofing built into the charging circuitry in the phone as well.
[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
I'm pretty sure the Captivate will only draw the amps it needs so there should be no danger whether the wall charger is 1 or 2 Amps or more.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
The difference is simply the charge time. The phone needs about 3 to 4 hours to get a full charge on the stock 700mA charger. When using generic USB chargers, it will be limited to 500mA max regardless what the charger is capable of and the full charge time will be proportionally longer. The bigger problem is that when your battery is really really low, 500mA may not be enough to even start the charging. That's why you need always keep the OEM charger handy for emergency.

BTW, for a car charger, 500mA won't keep your bettery from draining if you run navigation app that needs to power GPS chip, keep the screen on and download map from 3G connection at the same time. It requires 700mA or more. That is why it is very critical for a car charger be recognized by the phone as AC charger to draw more juice.
[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
Ok, as I stated in my previous post I modded a USB cable by shorting the two middle data connectors, which tricks the Captivate into thinking it's charging with AC through my generic 700mA wall charger. It also says in settings it's "AC Charging" when I looked.

I just wanted to know if the iPhone's wall charger is rated at 1A or was it 650mA?? as newter55 stated.

thx for everyone's help.

Edit: My mistake, I thought I posted this in the Q&A section.
[Captivate General] johan8:
For some new PC motherboard with USB3.0,

they can output 900mA~1000mA(1A) in one single USB port.

You may check this out http://goo.gl/TUaef

If your PC is already 2 years old or older, the usb will only output 500mA in the max.

And, most Li-ion charger are smart enough.

In fact Li-ion charger circuit need to be well design in current control and over current/charge control.

The circuit will not pump full current to the battery in the beginning,

and it will not draw too much, so no need to worry about burn it up.

However if the current is too high let's say 10A.... it may possibly burn the circuit.

Maybe it is a bit difficult to measure current, you need to cut the wire and plug it to ampmeter....

Here is some reference.

500mA - full charge need over 3hrs

700mA - around 2hrs

1A - ~1.5 hr
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
It is not about USB port side. The phone itself also detects and determines how much current it will draw. If it detects it is a PC USB, it will only draw 500mA max as Captivate is designed following USB 2.0 spec.
[Captivate General] Shoey Peachew:
Ok, thanks for everyone's help. I was able to find out on my own after scouring the internet and talking to someone who has the Apple wall charger and it is indeed 1Amps. I believe all wall chargers that come with the iPhone 3g and all iPhone models after are 1Amps. Not sure about the original iPhone 2g.

Also, for curiosities sake, the iPad USB wall charger is 2Amps.
[Captivate General] johan8:
Maybe.

I don't know the control circuit inside GalaxyS.

But USB2.0 doesn't means it is just 500mA.

iphone is just usb2.0, but it is the only thing can draw 1A from USB ?

http://goo.gl/GVqKl

(with designated m/b)
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
You're missing the point. The charge port on the phone can draw more than 500mA but only if it detects it is connected to a AC charger. Like mentioned above, you have to short the data PINs on the USB port or cable to let the Captivate think it is connected to AC charger. For iPhone, the data pins need to be connected to certain specific voltages in order to let iPhone know it is connected to an Apple AC charger.

When the phone can not detect AC charger characteristics, it falls back to PC USB 2.0 spec which is 500mA max.
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
I use one to charge my Zune. Haven't had a problem.
[Captivate General] johan8:
I fully understand what you're saying.

In iphone3, it can only draw 700mA from USB,

IP4 can draw nearly 1A from "computer" USB.

While iphone are just USB2.0 !

GalaxyS can draw 1A in max.

But does it like iphone4 can draw 1A from PC USB ? I don't know.

Or just like IP3 can draw only 500~700mA ?

I don't have new m/b and ampmeter so can't testing on it.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbbb:
I personally dislike SuperPower, as it's still in BETA phase. However, some decent features are to turn off mobile data (internet is pretty much turned off, however you can still make and receive calls/texts).

Switching to 2G/3G is good, but if you turn your phone on and off in quick succession, like accidentally letting it sleep, this could become a bother.

My advice is don't use it, though, and just turn off things like Auto Sync and Freeze unused system apps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
actually, it lets you decide a delay time when you put your phone on sleep to not cause that problem.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cvibe88:
I like SuperPower, even though it is in beta stage. I use nero v3 w/voodoo. Prior to having voodoo, I experienced significant lag time when waking the device while it was switching 3g/edge or wifi back on. Now with voodoo I have no lag at all really and It saves a lot of battery life! bobbbb has a good point though, By turning off auto sync and freezing some apps. That will help out. There again, Its all personal preference and what YOU are trying to acheive with your device. Super quick with not so great battery life. Or a modestly quick device with great battery life. To each his own? Try playing with the settings and monitor for any changes. Also recondition your battery. Good luck!

I said I'd never go Android because it looked silly and geeky and now I'm addicted to it. I can't believe I put up with WinMo for all the years and didn't use another system. Android (Mostly HTC Sense style) destroys Windows Mobile and the only thing I still like about Windows Mobile is the Windows Live Messenger official client.

Anyone still use WinMo who also uses Android? Why do you? What are your reasons?

after i buy igo/papago/ndrive/whatever i'll stop using winmo altogether.

I actually like both android and windows, if windows had a better market place I wouldn't bother with android, I love the simplicity of windows, the multitasking is by far better in windows, I can have lots of apps open and simply switch between them, android does this to a certain extent, htc sense is far superior in windows the slick weather animations are more detailed, sense on android seems a slightly basic affair, on windows I love the bbc news app much nicer to use than the android one, now facebook app works a treat on windows, my memory map navigator simply syncs with my pc maps and works better than any of the basic ordinance survey map apps on android, there are lots of bird/wildlife guides on windows, hardly any on android.

Alas android has many more games and a vast marketplace, and flash works straight out the box on android whereas its a little hit and miss on windows.

I can run windows and never use my 500mb per month data limit, with android I have to be so careful of what its downloading in the background constantly.

So yes I still like windows, androids ui almost feels a little mobile shell to me and I found that a widgety cluttery hodge podge

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] smeddy:
I haven't booted to Win Mo since October (and I was a huge defender of the OS).

If I ever do need to boot back into it, it's because I have TomTom remaining on 6.5, but as I'm not driving currently then it's not likely to happen! Indeed I may well go to NAND in the next week.

I agree with the above post that Sense was slicker/more attactive on 6.5, but (except TomTom) there's not a single App that's missed or not excelled by it's Android alternative - and even if there is one, it's outweighed by the sheer number of quality Apps available on 'Droid.

But 6.5 was never a bad platform, just Microsoft completely screwed it with no MarketPlace and no UI, until HTC and Cookie showed how it could be done.

Overall the experience of Android is fantastic on the HD2, so for me, no looking back!

Same here...I never thought I'll leave WinMo for Android at the early stages but here we are today. I havent used Windows Mobile as a phone for nearly 4 months now and cant simply understand the vast user interactivity and experience between the two OSes. Android totally kills WinMo but I still go back to it just because of Tomtom which I must say is quite good. Once they get tomtom on Android, I'll most likely ditch WinMO for good. :p
