Just like to say that I had this same problem also and can confirm that cleaning the usb port terminals does work, I just used a bit of clean paper and rubbed inside the usb port until all dirt was out restarted phone and now it works, didn't need to disassemble phone, Thanks for the advice guys :)

Hi, Is there a good News Application besides Genie for reading Articles with inverted text, I remember using one before but I lost it and cannot remember the name of it.

inverted=good for viewing on our devices with black background and then green text or white.

Hi,

I'm wondering how to check number of saterlites lock at the same time??

I heard some guy said his SGS can lock 5 or 10 saterlites at the same time after they installed lagfix.. so how to check it??

Thanks..

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laradicus:
I rooted my phone w/ Visionary and installed Ice v1.1.4. Little did I know the app my company uses for corporate email(Good for enterprise) won't allow a rooted phone to connect to the server. I went into Visionary and attempted to use the unroot button without success. Is there a way I can stay on Ice and Gorilla Kernel and still have the phone show it's unrooted? All the unroot guides out there seem to restore the phone back to the original state.

Thanks,
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CBConsultation:
You can't run a non-stock ROM and not be rooted. My advice is unroot and restore the stock ROM.

Install a different launcher like ADW or LP and simply change the look.

What all the ways to video chat with the G2?

I know there's skype, but what else is there? i want to specifically video chat from my phone to a pc.

how can i use my phone as a webcam when connected to my linux computer?

thanks for any input guys!
[G2 and Desire Z General] elracing21:

[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
the best one that i know of is OOVOO , the android version

is out its in beta but so far its been working well for me you can video chat with pc or mac or android i think its availible on the market now but if not here is the QR http://www.oovoo.com/Mobile.aspx?pname=GetooVooMobile the only problem with oovoo is it doesnt have linux client and you cant get it to work on wine either and the 6-way video chat is only free for a month after that you need to pay. 2-way video chat is free though
[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
there is a project called SmartCam that can make it happen. here you can download the .deb file http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartcam/
[G2 and Desire Z General] funkadesi:

[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
I am not sure what you are asking here , what do mean by that?

are you having problem installing it ? if the distro you are using is not base on

debian you can get the source code from the same website .
[G2 and Desire Z General] durps:
Oovoo and yahoo don't seem to work on my G2. I heard that many people have problems with Qik draining their batteries.

Will try Tango and Fring.

thanks for the suggestions guys!

EDIT: Tango and Fring seem like they could work, but I need something that can either make my device's camera into a webcam for my linux pc, or where I can video chat from a phone to a pc.
[G2 and Desire Z General] durps:
I don't know what to do either lol, I'm on linux.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
well you need to download the .deb file and install it (if you are using a debian base distro) or you can get the source code otherwise .

if you are using 64bit linux you have to force install it .

and then get the android file and install that on your phone .

after that install the driver from the source code.

connect your phone to your pc via bluetooth or wifi from the menu .

again i dont understand what you are asking could you please be more specific about where you are running into problem?
[G2 and Desire Z General] durps:
I don't know how to install anything on Linux, I'm new to this.

I installed the apk to my phone and it works well, set it up to my wifi.

I installed the linux file of smartcam, but when i open the file, it immediately closes. I'm guess I did it wrong. Linux just makes everything so complicated. The easiest tasks become complicated.

can you explain to me to how install this on here from scratch? i'm using ubuntu 9.10 i think.

[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
Ok i will write a guide for you when i get home .meanwhile i need to know which ubuntu version and linux kernel you are using because you need a patch for some kernels and since you are not sure go to applications>accesories>terminal

Then type : cat /etc/lsb-release

This will give you your ubuntu version then type :

Uname -a this will give you your kernel version

Post the outputs for this 2 commands and will try to write a guide for you when i get back to my pc .
[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
Yes it does its actually very simple to set it up on Windows7
[G2 and Desire Z General] elracing21:
Sorry if its too much to ask for but can you write a guide for the windows7 too?

[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
here is how to use your G2 (any android phone with camera and wifi) as a portabable webcam (windows)

1-Downlaod "SmartCam_v1_4.exe" and "SmartCam_v1_4_src.zip" from here

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartcam/files/smartcam_windows/SmartCam_v1_4/ (you probebly wont need the .zip file but you might need

it if you run in to problem later)

2-install SmartCam_v1_4.exe on your windows pc

3-download SmartCamAndroid_v1_4_0.apk from here

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartcam/files/smartcam_android/SmartCamAndroid_v1_4_0/

4-copy the .apk file to your sd card and install it on your phone.

5-on your pc click start go to all programmes and launch smartcam.

6-click file>settings choose wifi, port number is 9361 by default leave it that way and click ok.

7-launch smartcam on your phone press menu and then settings

8-On connection type select TCP/IP(wifi)

9-still in settings press remote server and type in your computer ip address on your wireless network (if you are not sure about that, click start run cmd

and type the command "ipconfig" a list on information will appear under

"Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection" you can see your IP address from there)

10- still on settings press on port number and make sure it maches the one smartcam from your pc ,its usually 9361 as well.

11-come out of settings ,press menu and Connect wifi

Thats it. now you can use you phone as portable webcam to use skype msn or

anything else that you want .

You can also ajust the camera resolution from settings but remember the maximum res that smartcam support is 800x480.

EDIT: I will write a guide for linux too. i am just waiting on durps to post his linux version so i will write the guide according to that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] durps:
Thanks bahmanxda, I really really appreciate the help. Here's what I got from the terminal.

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu

DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.10

DISTRIB_CODENAME=karmic

DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.10"

Kernal: 2.6.31-22-generic
[G2 and Desire Z General] bahmanxda:
ok i wrote a step by step guide on how to get smartcam working on ubuntu

1-Download "smartcam_1.4.0_i386.deb" and "smartcam-1.4.0.tar.gz" from here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartcam/files/smartcam_linux/smartcam_linux_v_1.4.0/

2-install the .deb file (deb files are easy to install and it should work by double clicking on them however you need to have a deb package manager installed if you dont already have one installed,you can get them from software centre gdebi package manager is a good one .

Or you can just install the .deb file from terminal

to do that

A-log in as root (sudo -s and then put in your password)

B-navigate to the folder that you Downloaded smartcam_1.4.0_i386.deb

(by using cd command)

C-inter the following command : dpkg -i smartcam_1.4.0_i386.deb

once the installation is done:

3-extract the tar.gz file (right click and extract here) and remember the location because you have to navigate to it later from terminal

4-download the 9.10 Karmic patch from here http://forum.ubuntu.ru/index.php?PH...67&action=dlattach;topic=66320.0;attach=16643

5-extract it, there is a file called Karmic.patch ,copy that into driver_src which is located in the first folder that you extracted (smartcam-1.4.0)

6-now open the terminal navigate to driver_src folder, so for example if you extracted smartcam-1.4.0 in your downloads folder the command is gonna be like this:

bahman@vpc:~$ cd Downloads

bahman@vpc:~/Downloads$ cd smartcam-1.4.0

bahman@vpc:~/Downloads/smartcam-1.4.0$ cd driver_src

bahman@vpc:~/Downloads/smartcam-1.4.0/driver_src$

7- now you can apply the patch by typing this command

patch -p0 < karmic.patch smartcam.c

8-then type this command

make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`

9- now open driver_src if the file smartcam.ko is there it means you have done it correctly.

10-now open terminal again, type sudo -s and put in your password (so you are logged in as root.

11-navigate to driver_src folder again

then type the following 3 commands one by one.

/sbin/modprobe videodev

/sbin/insmod smartcam.ko

sudo chmod 0666 /dev/video0

now go to Applications/sound & video/and launch smartcam

and the rest is same as windows guide

If you have any problem with the installation let me know.

Edit: i forgot to ask you if you are running 32bit or 64bit if you are running 64bit you need to force install the .deb file

so in step 2-C instead of dpkg -i smartcam_1.4.0_i386.deb enter dpkg -i --force-architecture smartcam_1.4.0_i386.deb

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] explodingboy70:
I have put together a file containing 216 ringtones and 114 notification sounds. The file also contains all the standard Vibrant system sounds. The ringtones and notifications have been pulled from different sources including stock Vibrant, Heathens M9 Clone Alpha, Eugenes Macnut R12, HTC, LG, and Droid X plus one or two others that I forget. Simply unzip the file and copy the included Audio file to your SD. Once there delete the audio file currently in system/media the move then move the new audio file to system/media with Root Explorer or the like. Reboot once to let media scanner do its thing. Again I have included the standard Vibrant sounds that came with your phone, system and all. This way you can just replace the audio file currently on your phone and not end up with any duplicates. Be warned the file is 33Mb. Also the M9 sounds have not been translated and are in either Chinese or Korean

I thought some people might appreciate the instructions to get adb working over WiFi too and this seems like a good place to put it:

Type this in your terminal emulator on your Android device:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd

Then check it with this:

getprop service.adb.tcp.port

If it doesn't return "5555" and you're rooted, then do a "su" command and try again. You shouldn't need to be rooted for adb over wifi to work, but I haven't tried every device:

su
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd

Then check it:

getprop service.adb.tcp.port

When it returns "5555" then run this command in the terminal (or command prompt) on your computer:

adb connect 192.168.0.151

(Obviously enter your device's IP address. You must be on the same network as the computer that has the Android SDK installed.)

And you should be connected!

To tell the Android device to listen for adb on the USB port instead of TCP again, enter this into the terminal emulator:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port -1
stop adbd
start adbd

(again, might need "su" on your device)

Or just reboot the Android device.

And to tell your computer to use USB for adb instead of TCP:

adb usb

Now, keep in mind, when your Android device is listening for adb via WiFi, it's wide open... anybody that that the Android SDK installed and knows your device's IP address can access it without a password.

HTH,

Billy

PS - Your are appreciated! ;)

[Nexus One General] izmar:
Do we have to upgrade our phones to a 4g phone if we want hspa+?

I ask, because t-mobile customers seems to have 4g speeds on their n1s.
[Nexus One General] grimmjaw:
No, it doesnt have the necessary radio inside it to do hspa +. T-mobile nexus cant do hspa +. You still might see a speed boost though.
[Nexus One General] Matt1408:
I get 5.2mbps on my Nexus One in Canada. This is still 3G.

T-mobile customers have just experienced a placebo effect (or T-Mobile simutaneously updated both HSPA and HSPA+)
[Nexus One General] izmar:
That sounds nice... maybe us att users will at least get a speed boost
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
You will benefit form HSPA+ on a non HSPA+ device because the backend is upgraded as well.

You're limit is your hardware. The radio on the phone can only get up to 7.2, so you'll benefit from HSPA+ all the way to 7.2.
[Nexus One General] vinnyjr:
You hit the nail on the head. With T-Mobile in a very strong HSPA+ area and my N1 is getting DL speeds over 6.5MB, my UL speeds are a very solid 1.5MB. I bought the MyTouch 4G and my speeds are on average 9 to 11 MB on DL and the same UL 1.5MB. I still find myself using my N1, with those DL speeds the N1 is a bad ass phone. Nothing feels as good as the N1 in your hand, maybe it's just me.

Well, my phone now is...not.

The phone is on, as the backlit keyboard still is backlit, and the touch buttons on the front touch screen are lighting up, however a red light is on the top and it has no "screen" nothing appears. I cannot turn my phone off and I cannot do ANYTHING

PLEASE HELP!!!

Download connectbot from the market, open it. Where it reads ssh touch it and select local. Touch where it ask for a user name and you're keyboard will pop up. Just hit enter without typing a name.you will enter the terminal similar to a command prompt in windows. You will see a "$" type "su"and hit enter. If the $ turns into a # you got root if not, run the propper one click root again but this time under settings-applications-development select stay awake. Hope that gets you going!

First of all, welcome to XDA. I would definitely suggest checking out the following links if you are indeed new to the forums:

2. |http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700| - Samsung Epic 4G WIKI - All the info/links you need to get started.

Since it seems like you may have rooted, but aren't sure if it worked properly, I would:

1. Back up all your contacts via syncing it to your google account,

2. Download the necessary files to revert back to factory settings/rom (as if you first got your phone from sprint) |http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700#Odin_Stock_Flashing|

3. Then try to root again FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THIS POST TO THE TEE! |http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=770388|

4. If you do decide to be up to date regarding the latest advances in the Epic, try flashing different ROMs based on your experience level. I would first recommend sticking to the STOCK ROM [after rooting] until you find your way around the Development section.
