No, sorry, he uses the functions of Android 2.2

See: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin.html
[Android Apps and Games] tuncays44:
thanks for this app
[Android Apps and Games] meiericamei:
great app

do you think it may works on my Archos 101?
[Android Apps and Games] paphko:
Nice idea!

But I'm a bit concerned about battery life. How is that affected if the sensor is on all the time?

And how long are 'after a short time', 'after a time', 'after a long time' in the sensor settings?
[Android Apps and Games] snowboardkid503:
Tired on my EVO and it didn't work..
[Android Apps and Games] kaymado:
Tried on HD2 with stock Desire rom (NAND), and also DIDNT WORK

Some users say on market comments that the latest update caused it to stop working.
[Android Apps and Games] Josolsson:
Great app. Thanks!

Works fine on my DHD.
[Android Apps and Games] geevee11:
works great on my milestone with cm6.1!

and +1 to paphko's question. how does it affect battery life?
[Android Apps and Games] pmaicas:
My Desire HD, a night spent in 3%, now spends 9%

According to the API, spends 5 ma.

>> And how long are 'after a short time', 'after a time', 'after a long time' in the sensor settings?

Is 10, 45 and 120 minutes.
[Android Apps and Games] paphko:
Thank you, that is helpful! This information would be useful within the settings ;-)

However, I noticed an annoying bug: after 5-10min the screen switches on automatically although the phone is just placed on the table without touching it. I didn't see that soon enough the first time and the screen drained my battery :-(

I'll try it again tomorrow to see whether it is reproducable.
[Android Apps and Games] JonasDroid:
Really nice app!!

I love it it works great on the HTC Legend running experimental CM7

Since the trackbutton can't be used to wake it anymore this is a great solution
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
Great, thanks! It looks like sometimes doesn't want to lock/unlock, but every minute it works better (It must be me :P)

I had the same think on my Nokia X6

:)
[Android Apps and Games] Phoenix Zero:
Not sure how great of an idea it is... your screen will always be on in your pocket, purse, etc and would randomly turn off if you have the phone far enough from your face/body. Sorry. :|
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
If the phone is in the pocket, it will be close to the body, and without light. Without light, it doesn't work, as it works by contrast between light and darkness (body/finger/object presence).

PD: As I did on my Nokia, I'm trying to unlock it in the pocket, but seems hard.

:)
[Android Apps and Games] kpjimmy:
triple tap! hehe...pretty cool app. I like it. So far so good!

I'm running Rod's latest MIUIMOD Rom on a N1.
[Android Apps and Games] social_enemy:
great app, but it doesnt work on acer liquid tho
[Android Apps and Games] aj7434:
I tried this on my Samsung Captivate but it didn't work.

My phone is in Phoenix rom (Froyo). I know this app may have conflict with some app killer, but none of them are in my phone now.
[Android Apps and Games] gumbung:
yes dude, safe the hard button on it, thanks ...
[Android Apps and Games] padlad:
Great app! My wife dropped her wildfire s in a cup of tea and the power button no longer works, so there was no way to wake the phone or turn off the screen. This app works great and the phone can now live for a little bit longer ;) many thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] pokusnyt:
Didn't work on Defy+

Tired on my Defy+ and it randomly locks and unlocks screen... Didn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] devilmaycry2020:
Where is the app ? I need this app too. unlock the screen without press power button
[Android Apps and Games] axonelover:
just tried and it seems works well on my xperia e.

It would be great if we could know the time the sensor is active in the app itself.Short time,after a time... all sounds so umm lazy?:D

(had to check here to know how long was that)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Replacement-Ori...ccessories&hash=item4aa6efc0d9#ht_2269wt_1140

Got me thinking.. is it possible to upgrade just the TFT LCD to AMOLED
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vxrz:
Guess it really depends whether your phone can handle it, but im not sure probably different head connector so im surprised if you can do it..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] olyloh6696:
In theory, yes you could.

But it would be very complicated, and you would mos likely void your warranty.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DavidinCT:
Not most likely, 100% would void your warranty. Opening a case and replacing a part with a non-oem part would 100% void your warranty, most companies would void it just by opening the case.....

With that being said, it would be interesting if it would work. As long as its the same res and the connector, it might work, at least I would think.

I would not attempt this unless you were out of warranty...

If you do, post back, I am wondering....
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] puccaso:
should i upgrade flash to the market version?

The version is newer i've been told, but some people said their flash stopped working altogether after the upgrade

can someone shed some light?

Thanks much
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] gadgetuk99:
Hi had no problems with flash update on my euro galaxy tab
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] puccaso:
Did you notice any improvements?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jamiemac1977:
I Upgraded the version on the market but i did not notice any fault before then, it could use less battery or something (i think it said it had better hardware accelleration) but my eyes are not that picky and i do not know of a "fraps" equivelent (for fps rate benchmarking on pc).

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norfo:
You should use the FRG33 passimg as per Wiki, then upgrade to FRG83D.

Also, wrong section.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swapniladsure:
my hboot is 35

ok as u said i need to use FRG33 ( FRG33 is upgraded version than FRF91 ?)

Just grab the image from here: http://developer.htc.com/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerard_f:
Have you tried the last update (FRG83D)?

Although if you want the FRF85D, first flash the FRF50 update (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/update-nexusone-FRF50-signed.zip) and then upgrade to FRF83 with oficial recovery (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/Update-Passion-FRF83-From-FRF50.zip) and finally upgrade to 85D (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/Update-Passion-FRF85B-From-FRF83.zip)

my nexus one is korean n1 and its on hboot 0.35

hey dude my n1 is korean n1 with hboot of 0.35 ..so downgrade to FRF85d will not cause any problem or not?

i dont wana update my N1 becasue if i update than i cant be able to root or install cynogen mod rom to my phone (if i need).

My phone was working fine before i update to FRF91 (No restart problem or hang so thast why i wana downgrade back)..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swapniladsure:
can u tell me how to flash FRF50 update to nexus one

hey dude i have download frf50 update..can u tell me how can i flash frf50 to my frf91 nexus rom...? can i flash by changing name to PASSIMG or can i change the name to Update.zip??

reply please soon
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LFact:
Korean N1 was released with 2.2(FRF91) from the start, IIRC. So I don't know if downgrade is possible. (And, you can still root your device via rageagainstthecage exploit after upgrading it to 2.2.1(FGR83))
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swapniladsure:
can i able to install custome rom after update to fgr83 as u say

hey dude if i update to fgr83 and after update if my phone work well than it is ok ( not get restart) but if after update my phone again get restart while surfing or using any apps ..than it is possible to root and install custom cyanogen mod rom on my nexus one??

Samsung Kies 2 Released. Hopefully our woes should end...;)

Head over here to download

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mr_at_sgs:
Very cool, but I see no download link.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Enspade:
Here is the link to download directly

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] croftyboy8:
downloaded. connected. works. thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] seltaeb:
Anything evidently new / better? My existing Kies setup is working fine finally and don't want to disturb it unless there is something interesting in the new release.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
Will the Kies hack software still work with this? BTW not only is 2.3 out but Gingerbread 2.4 has also now been seen in the wild so it would be fun to still be able to access the Test Mode :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] croftyboy8:
just less bloated. appears to be more user friendly ( not hard! )

not a massive difference so if yours is working i wouldnt bother switching. knowing samsung it would probably break somehow!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
Unless it is needed to install 2.3 !

They did this with Original Kies remember so we could update to JPO
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] drakenabarion:
I only know of 2.3 on nexus x. If 2.3 was released on Sgs i would be on it already! :-D

So does kies 2 give any special reason to use it? I haven't used kies much at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mr_at_sgs:
Kies 2.0 looks like a Linux-Version of iTunes. Testing ...

Cool stuff. Much better as prior Versions. RAM usage is big but it's a much better GUI but not Windows7 like.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Amboe:
Can you connect your SGS with Kies 2? If yes, do you have original stock firmware(without root, lagfix or whatever)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lvvine:
Kies 2 Does not support the reg hack.

Time to update the Kies Registry Patcher 1.7.0.0,

Interface is super lot of interface change. Its good
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dehem333:
Works great , and lol. In the video guide when you check firmware upgrade Galaxy S is the example and it upgrades to jm1 , lol'ed :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jpaik:
Yes, I can connect.

Yes, I have stock firmware (Bell, Canada, JL2), no root, no lagfix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dehem333:
I shud download it here btw , http://www.samsungapps.com/about/onPc.as?COUNTRY_CODE=NLD&LANGUAGE_CODE=NLD :D

When i hear new kies , I always think about a new firmware:) We'll see :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Prasad:
Is it twice as crappy? :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] titorez:
Just istalled and it works.

Anyway it prompts me to do a firmware upgrade (DBT code) even if i am on the same firmware it prompts me to upgrade to (JPO). Is Anyone experiencing this?

Even when using check FUS on android market it shows me JPO but with 5 Jan 2011 Date, when previously was 5 Nov 2010, anyone has some info about this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] BARMAN2005:
@titorez I have this issue too. I'm from Poland but I have Germany product code. After I click Update it automatically disconnects the phone and fail. Even if I try to save my contacts on PC it fails.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] titorez:
Exactly what i was talking about, but i did not try to upgrade or play with contacts.

I will wait for the 2.2.1 to be available to "upgrade". :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] croftyboy8:

i have stock 2.2 no lagfix etc.

phone connects and shows photos, contacts etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] croftyboy8:
exact same message for me (UK) stock 2.2

tells me there is a firmware update available but gives that message when i try to update.

at least im not alone!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tsinc:
Did you notice that it automatically checks for firmware? Maybe Samsung don't want us to manually flash our phones anymore :rolleyes:. Does it have to do with new bootloaders ;) ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Seems to be working perfectly for me :-s. Did you do a clean install? Are you running stock?

I am not sure how the startup firmware check will be able to be got around.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Kagalaska:
Working on my 16gb Intl SGS-w/Darkyy 8 full lagfix enabled
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
finally connected only 1 of my 2 ports work.. anyone know what emergency firmware recovery is?

also havng same problem as others .. running 2.2.1 jpy.. conencted and then when try anything like bringing up contacts/music it disconnects.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Intratech:
Running JPY with hardcore kernel and connects and work well. Even backed up my contacts and pics without going b0rk like the older kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sammy_user:
and don't forget that if you don't want to install kies 2, you can extract Samsung drivers from the setup exe file and install them using windows device manager.

i don't know if they have updated the drivers...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] specr1:
I'm trying to connect with Darkyys as well. What launcher are you using? My TwLauncher doesn't connect and it doesn't launch the MTP application.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Kagalaska:
Launcher Pro ensure debug mode is off(settings,applications,development)Usb set to kies(settings,wireless and network,usb settings).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] specr1:
Alright thanks,

Everything seems to be working except for the contacts. It's not loading then it gives an error that says "Cancel task in progess" anyone else get this? Or know how to fix it

thanks

Edit: I got the contacts to work by restarting everything, but now the photos/music/video tabs dont work! Haha!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] BanziBaby:
Have just unstalled previous version of Kies to try the new v2

First thoughts

Looks like a Ubuntu app but I like Ubuntu so that not a issue.

Much slower than v1 at almost everything, phone takes ages to connect, changing tabs is very laggy (bit like the RFS filesystem lol)

I don't know how the hell this is now a final version, only the first couple of versions of Kies v1 would read the contacts on my SGS, every newer version just said please connect phone despite Kies itself saying that phone was connected ok.

V2 gives the same error the poster above mentions ie cancel active task when trying to view the contacts on phone & also generates a big error dialog about jet databases etc.

Trying to use the backup function to back up the contacts gives a error message saying a unexpected error stopped the task.

Really getting fed up with this software now, after updating to JPY using Kies v1 it wouldn't transfer over contacts to the phone so I had to enter them all manually, i know i can sync them with google acc but I don't really want my friends numbers there.

Why can't Samsung make a decent software app for their phones instead of this bloated mess, i didn't have half the issues with Kies v1 that some had but it was always a twitchy piece of soft, sometimes it would work ok but most of the time it wouldn't do what you asked it to.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mathijs727:
This looks really good, i bit like iTunes.

If you have lag longer then half a second, you should considder buying a new PC, or stop complaining.

I thinks it's a real improvement.

V1 was just ****, why did we need that stupid "Desktop" idea???

This is easier to use, and it looks better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] chrisjcks:
I agree, its much faster than 1.5 on my machine and MUCH MUCH better, all info I want is on one single screen - current firmware and latext firmware aswell as data used on both internal and external sd card - much better!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] stepic:
Same product code (DBT) and same problems reported: prompt for JPO upgrade (having already JPO installed), error during phonebook backup, database error during phonebook access.

That's not a good start for a 2.0...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] PhoenixFx:
Can it send SMS s and restore backed up messages to the phone? If not, I’d stick to the old version. Because if it doesn’t handle SMSs properly then the only use is firmware upgrading, for which the previous version works fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ducifer:
A big inprovement! I still get UI problem, but it not really matter
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] specr1:
Can anyone create playlists on their phone via Kies 2 yet?

The option is blanked out for me
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] uja1109:
Kies 2.0 updates Firmware Galaxy s i9000

After having installed Kies 2.0 software wants to update Galaxy S i 9000 everytime. Must be a bug in Kies. Apps on Home screen in disorder.!! Kies 2.0 is a real pain
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Sharpedge:
Kies has always been a pain, 2 looks better but I still can't view anything thats on the phone, no pics no contacts, nothing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Crysis21:
the 2.0 version works like ****. they've ****ed even more keys. the 1.5.3 version was working good in the last weeks. but now the 2.0 uses 60-70% of my quad core intel proc. that's HUGE, cause it's not a video converting software afterall.:|

damn samsung's software engineers:|
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] exmatproton:
Yep

KIES 1 didn't work for me at all. This release is working 100%. Got Darky's v8 installed with speedmod. Better, but not able to update to another firmware.

But everything else is working faster (Windows 7 x64)

PDA: JPY

PHONE: JPY

CSC: JPX
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Johnny Storm:
Kies 2.0 seems to be even worse than v1

Everytime I go to do a backup it says "An unexpected error prevented the data from backing up" :rolleyes:

Also wont sync....
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] BARMAN2005:
It offers me to update to firmware which I already have installed: from JPO/JPP/JP3 to JPO/JPP/JP3. But when I tried that it failed at downloading mode. :eek: Hopefully phone still works after restart. <thanks to god>
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mihyes:
Indeed,v2 is just horrible, even worse than 1.5.x. Nothing works, wants to update to same version.it is just a very bad iTunes clone one should avoid.I really wonder who writes such a crappy software...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] :
Kies2 doesn't connect

on my SGS i9000 with Froyo / Darky's Gingerbread Edition v8 I get constantly sync sign but no connection, although my handy is in Kies Mode. I reinstalled the driver in Kies2 but still no connection between Kies and PC.

Any idea how to fix that?

bR, J.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] photoman1966:
backup took for ever, i had to go the old version on my laptop to do it, then when i try to check my firmware update it tells me that i cannot update this divice, previously i updated my galaxy with the kies patcher, is there a way to make my divice to do the check for updates throu this kies version without the patcher?

thank you
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Crysis21:
Totally crappy. its unbelieveble that samsung sold 10 millions of galaxy s and other android phones and they can't do in almost an year a good, simple but WORKING pc-phone software. Look at Nokia, HTC or any other big phone maker. They all have good sync software and update tools. I had before a few symbians and never had problems with fw update
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Intratech:
I haven't experienced any of these since installing KIES 2. Infact it was the first time KIES has been able to do a backup of my data. Importing my music took forever though and there are some issues with the interface where some of the gui aspect randomly just disappears.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] opica:
i did it

I have just successfully updated my roommates SGS from 2.2 JPO to 2.2.1 JPY via Kies 2.

took next steps:

I deleted previous version of Kies and deleted 'Samsung' registry key (because I updated my phone to JPY a while ago with Kies Registry Patcher), then installed 2.0.0.11011_16_5.

Ran Kies and Reinstalled driver via 'Help' menu.

Connected the phone - fully charged without SIM - which took a while, then upgrade notification came up, clicked upgrade JPY/JPY/JPY, clicked accept and then 'without saving information', next, then it offered me backup > skipped, then something was loading (I think some scripts, not sure), then started to download firmware and then it started upgrade process > phone went do download mode and upgrade done.

Upgraded from completely stock official 2.2 JPO/JPP/JPO obtained via Kies by manually editing registry with XEU product code but the phone kept MOT product code all the time which is official for my country (through both upgrades).

The phone kept everything, apps, data, nothing got deleted, no factory reset/data wipe was executed not prior not after update because he didn't want it. He played with the phone for about half an hour and so far everything works normal, reported some increase in speed. But I think that a factory reset could do wonders:)

conclusion:

I have upgraded two SGSs 4 times altogether via Kies (3x via 1.5.3.10103_100_2 and first on 2), even if it's crappy, it can be done:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mihyes:
I've upgraded successfully with Kies 1.5 to froyo as well.however just the fact that it proposes to upgrade to the same version isn't really something reassuring, isn't it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] JJEgan:
If Kies is showing an official download for your phone i would try using Kies registry patcher to download and save the official rom . You dont have to install it but at least you would have the official network firmware if needed at a later date .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] outchard:
Re-installed 1.5...............v2 is indeed painfull
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Crysis21:
I just did the same. I tried to sync my calendar with my phone but kies stopped.... it's freezed. The 1.5 i think is much better, at least for the moment. Let's pray that one of samsungs software engineers will read this topic n xda LOL and they will fix the problems. :d

I am really satisfied with my galaxy s, hardware speaking, but when it comes to software it's totally crappy... i am starting to hate samsung :(::(:(:(
