This may explain a lot. My ROM does not provide me with any option other than "Touch Input."

I have been trying to get back that Blackberry autocorrect feeling, but the other threads that suggest hacking the reg to switch compime for et9ime always screwed up my hardware keyboard.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
If you use SwiftKey you'll get auto correct with hardware keyboard.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
Swift key if the way to go with hardware key board... It's amazing. I use keyboard manager to have swift key in land scape and swype in portrait. Perfect combo
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofulanof:
Hello there,

I searched throughly in forums before asking this, but

I can't seem to turn off GPS location attachment in Camera photos.

When taking a photo, gps satellite appears up left. Doesn't make a difference if my GPS radio is ON or OFF in Settings.

And my last known location gets attached into photos.

There is NO SETTING about "Location" "GPS" or something alike in camera settings/options.

My setup is I9000 8gb with Stock JPY/JPY/JPY, no lagfix, Speedmod K12K kernel applied for rooting purposes.

And my camera app is not updated from some another device. It IS the app which comes with official JPY package.

Please help

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofulanof:
Well, it looks like XPY is an internal firmware of 2.2.1, and the rumor says there are no GPS settings in internal firmware camera apps.

I disabled "Use wireless location service" thing in Location settings, and camera can't get location data now. Even though it still tries with satellite icon blinking.

Very silly and annoying thing.

Hope someone comes with solution.

a silly way some1 updates the fone. now cant get on 02 web because it doesnt allow it, its unlocked. just voda said its vodafone branded software .
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jersr:
Vodafone 360 is just an app, that probably only works on vodafone network.

It doesn't update android os. Just remove the app.

Have you tried to add o2 APN settings manually?

Am i reading correct as i have difficulty reading and understanding your post in such strange writing .

You have Vodafone branded phone that will not work on O2 .

Is the phone locked to the Vodafone network .

Warranty repairs contact the seller or use Google to search for your local Samsung service centre .

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] accept97:
Hi there. First time android user, do not have much experience just wondering what would be the easiest way to exit/close a running application in NC?

The way I'm doing it right now is through Home Button -> Task Manager and Kill the app.

:confused:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] likearaptor:
Some apps have an exit option if you click the menu button, but the majority of them do not. Android will automatically close apps that are not being used if it needs memory for currently running apps, so I wouldn't worry too much about it
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camwinnn:
Advanced task killer (: there's just a little Droid Guy in notification click him then full view of running apps, to kill/switch to, as well as showing free ram.

sent from a Nook Color using xda-app

Oops didn't see that's what your doing, some apps have an exit but tbh even hitting that most stay running in task manager, I'm a first time android user as well, but task managers just seem the best.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devis:
I find that the NC doesn't close apps... in fact I've had as many as 12-13 apps running in the background. I either kill them all or do a reboot every day or two days.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amr Nasser:
Easy Way

Just Download " Android Assistant " From Android Market For Free

And It Will Close All Not Used Programs At Once :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahfo:
if you are using cm7, go to Settings>Applications>Development, check Stop app via long-press, then you can kill an app by long-pressing the BACK button.

i think this is the best way to exit and kill an app, hope it help
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobstro:
As of Android 2.2 Froyo, memory management is much improved. Unused apps in the background are automatically killed off, and there's been a lot of discussion that task killers actually degrade performance. The issue is that some of the apps that these kill will automatically reload, actually consuming more battery in the process.

However, there are some apps that stay active in the background that can cause problems. There is a difference between just "flipping away" from an app, and backing out. If you back out of an app (with the back button or right-left swipe on the status bar if using B&N 1.4.1), these will free up properly.

I'd try that first. Then, if the results still aren't satisfactory, you can play with the task killers.

Greetings everyone! Just a tiny question concerning the camera on the mytouch 4G: is the macro functionality built into the camera or is that functionality missing? I did a search online and it shows that macro functionality is indeed supported so that's why I decided to ask here. Thank you for your time everyone!

[Vibrant General] kolyan:
I get about 2-3mbps at home.....so about 5 minutes from my home i wanted to show my friend how fast my data is vs his Sprint.....well my 3G crapped out at around 200-300kbps and his Sprint was in 5-6mbps range.....this is the second time now Tmobile data does this to me. The other time my friend was streaming 128kbps music on ATT iPhone while I had GPRS with pretty much non-working data connection....< this was 1 year ago, and exactly the same this year !
[Vibrant General] vetvito:
Spotty network connection. Happens to me all the time.
[Vibrant General] jayprime:
Yeah that sucks. I always read about other people getting 4-6mbs on their vibrants. In my town I only get 1-2.5mbs on 3g, in the town next to me I can get 3mbs. If I want real speed I just stay home and get 14mbs on my wifi network.

Fear the beard...
[Vibrant General] Paging Dr B:
This happens to the best of us. I tried a speedtest with vs a dude who was all proud of his Evo using 4G and i beat him in my office 4Mbs vs 3Mbs. It just all depends on where you're at and how congested the network is. If it makes you feel any better, my Vibrant can smoke my Droid X 90 percent of the time.
[Vibrant General] reuthermonkey:
Networks vary. This shouldn't be a surprise. Each tower is different. Different loads. Different backhauls.

2 days ago I had a friend over with his iPhone4, and I was telling him about Nero v3 on my Vibrant, and the subject of speed tests came up. So he pulls up his speedtest.net app, and happily shows me a 2.5mbps test, with 220ms ping. I'm like "hey, not bad", then I pull out my Vibrant and run a test: 4.4mbps, 84ms ping.
[Vibrant General] synaesthetic:
It only went slow because you were trying to one-up your friend. :)
[Vibrant General] Rotaryknight:
Ive been getting edge like speed on my vibrant ever since thanksgiving day. It sometimes gets to 3g.

I finally rang up tmobile support and apparently its becuase theres a network problem with the towers....so, in 72 hours, it should be fixed by the engineers.

Before the slow speed I was getting constant 1500-2000kbps, now I am struggling to get over 100kbps, almost dial up speed :(
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Verizon 4G LTE 22 megabits/sec download. What the heck???????????????????????????????

I am simply speachless at how fast Verizon wireless 4G LTE is.

So my friend is getting a new phone and we go on a shopping adventure. Verizon, At&t and T-Mobile all 3 stores accross the street from one another.

All 3 stores are located in Los Angeles in a verified 4G area.

We ran a little experiment, hitting up 4G phones and running speedtest. We ran speedtest a few times, and the below are average max scores

Verizon HTC Thunderbolt 20-22 mbps download every single time, and 35mbps upload :eek::eek::eek::eek:

At&t Motorola Atrix 4G Max download 0.36mbps What the heck? That doesn't even count as 3G I don't think

T-Mobile Vibrant 4G Max download about 1.5mbps. Still not 4G in my opinion

My personal T-Mobile Vibrant 3G max download about 3mbps. For some reason my Vibrant 3G had faster downloads thant the Vibrant 4G every single time, and we ran the test like 10 times.

So At&t was just simply a joke. T-Mobile was more acceptable, but still not 4G speeds, and I have no clue why my 3G Vibrant outperformed the 4G Vibrant. So we ran the test on the HTC G2 4G, again faster speeds on my Vibrant 3G. Doesn't make sense.

Now, Verizon 4G LTE 22 mbps download, 35 mbps upload. NO I AM NOT KIDDING.

He ends up getting the Thunderbolt, driving around LA all day yesterday, not one single spot did the Thunderbolt go below 18mbps download, and was consistantly getting over 25mbps upload.

I am amazed, now THAT IS 4G!

Are those speeds real or is the phone reporting incorrectly? He is even getting almost 40 mbps upload sometimes. Seriously? Tell me thats just a software issue giving false speeds, because that is almost not believable!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Speedy350z:
I am able to record videos on my streak in 720p but when I play them back they are sideways. I realize now that I am suppose to record them in landscape mode and not in portrait mode. Is there a way to fix the orientation on the videos I have taken?

They play on a pc or facebook the same way sideways. I cannot figure out how to rotate them. I tried a converter but it wanted to change it to AVI and when I played it back it was at double speed.

Any suggestions?

[Captivate General] MRQuad:
Hey guys,

I got an option to replace my captivate with other phones, what should i get?

The newer version the better.. And i want it to be able to access any update of OS any time, if there is any.. Without any hassle..

So guys, what can you recommend? Thanks for reading..
[Captivate General] daceaki:
want fast update, then nexus s is the one...
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
Nexus S is not available through AT&T.

MRQuad, what's the timeframe for you to make a decision? If you want Android on AT&T, there isn't too much at this moment, but the offerings should get better as we get into 2011.
[Captivate General] diablo009:
I would recommend wait for 2 more months. Good phones are lined up for release. But this would be feasible only if u have the option to wait, and picking the phone isn't due immediately.
[Captivate General] GTIVRon:
Anything but samsung.
[Captivate General] jokes24:
Assuming you want to stay with at&t. Wait and get the Atrix.

That is if you have the option to wait.

[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Why not research phones you are interested in and decide from there. You don't need people on the internet to make suggestions for you. Would you ask random strangers what car you should buy?
[Captivate General] Xstop:
+1

He should read the forums and see what issues to expect.
[Captivate General] bames:
+1 on the Atrix

or if you can hold off 4-6 months i would think we will start to see some dual cores with 2.3 out of the box
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
Atrix.

Or, if you absolutely have to get one now, get a Nexus One.
[Captivate General] MRQuad:
Hey guys, thanks for the honest response.. Appreciate it very much!

actually, i have the option to replace my fone for 3yrs. As long as there is faulty on it.. Kinda insurance thingy for my fone, but i paid extra for it.. The sales guy says i can change it as long as it's the same provider.. Im from canada by the way.

Ican tell there is faulty on my fone.. Do you think i should wait for two years and replace the fone with a new one?

Thanks again!

Is there any way to override the limitation of the native sip calling app and make VoIP calls over 3G on the Nexus S?

[Android Software Development] FreeTheWorld:
Ahhh cust service, no matter how smart the company is they are stupid as hell. Lucky for me mine is my first app and its free so no harm on my side But for you and others that is def lost money and they need to do something about it. Sounds like a whole lot of trouble for you though...

Not too much trouble, but it just bothers me now that I HAVE to check on it every so often.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Chris41336:
The G2 doesn't use sense UI. Only the Desire Z does.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hoffreaper:
Rooting the G2 doesn't take any special skill and the procedures that are written out here and on unlockr are proven to work. Once rooting to install Cyanogen all you need is to download ROM Manager from the Marketplace and it will handle installing recovery and allow you to download ROM for install without you having to worry about it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
No, don't use the unlockr tutorial, the one that I saw used the VISIONary way. Just root it with the instructions in our Wiki, that's the safest way to do it. But whatever you do, DON'T use VISIONary EVER, it bricks phones. ADB might not be the easiest to use for some, but at least it works. Some people have used the VISIONary method and it worked for them, but that method is a "fake" root, its about 90% real and that method is risky, it bricks some people's phones. If you root at all, its best to learn how to use ADB with the Rage and GFree method.

BTW, people were talking about the Sense UI, I think that its the most stupidest thing that when a manufacturer makes a UI, such as Touch Wiz, Moto Blur, or Sense, it is referred to as "bloatware" and needs to be removed, but when the community makes a UI such as the MIUI one, people call it the "most awesomest thing EVER!"
[G2 and Desire Z General] jark99:
That's because the roms nd UIs built here are more customizable and enable features not available through stock roms...like wirless calling, rooting, it just gives more control. And yes! MIUI is awessomeee...my fav. Probably because it has everything I need.

Off topic I suppose but Sense does have quite a few things that stock Android doesn't.

This bug alone keeps me off stock android including Gingerbread:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1180

However HTC mail which comes with Sense does not have that bug and let's me use an Android device for work.

Call it bloatware, call it what you will but for some of us using an Android device would not even be an option without Sense.

[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr123:
Did you ever bother to consider the fact that you have a smartphone? That means that you can install any email client that you want. If the default android email client doesn't have the features you want, INSTALL A DIFFERENT ONE!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr123:
You're being a little harsh there. In fact, visionary has never bricked a single phone EVER. What it can do, under some circumstances, is corrupt the system partition, which is TRIVIAL to repair. Especially since the first step after visionary is to gfree it.

ALL THAT VISIONARY IS, IS A TEMPROOT.

The reason why it can cause issues is that you can end up in a state where you are synchronizing a broken filesystem cache with the root filesystem. That is all. This is NOT a brick.

The ONLY known bricked VISION was produced by scotty2 while trying out a radio command that repartitioned the eMMC and broke the radio. Visionary has NOT bricked even ONE phone.
[G2 and Desire Z General] JuiceHD2:
Hey I want to know something. I rooted with visionary a month ago and now I can't flash any themes, it just say installation aborted. Do you think it has anything to do with visionary. And if it is, what can I do to reverse the effect or even fix it? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] blackknightavalon:
Uninstall Visionary and use either rage or gfree.
