[Galaxy Tab General] xenomage:
Hi,

did a flash of the JM4 firmware (P1000DXJM4_P1000DXJM2_P1000OLBJM1) using Odin (v1.7). Flashing of the firmware works fine and the upload was completed. However, the GTab did not reset automatically (i saw that the screen went blank for a second and then once again the downloading screen is shown). After i unplug the USB and then manually rebooted it, it is stuck at the Samsumg screen and won't proceed further.

Is there something that i've done wrong? i've placed a check on the "re-partition", "auto-reboot" and "F. reset time" on the Odin.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab General] pakalrtb:
Turn the tab OFF and reboot in recovery : Power button + Volume UP . It will finish loading the CSC files and it should then reboot fine.

P_
[Galaxy Tab General] xenomage:
Thanks.

Think i've screwed up my Tab big time. After recovery, it still doesn't show the CSC and the PDA version. What is shown is the Phone version which is "XXJMA". That's not going to work for me as i'm from Asia.

i'm going to try and flash it again.

In the meantime, anybody can think of anything to help me out, i'll greatly appreciate it.
[Galaxy Tab General] GOF007:
From the look of that rom name......

Congratulation!! You are most likely have Protected Boot Loader and SBL now ^^

As I recall when I flash my second TAB with that firmware i have the same problem and I solved it by flashing Roto's JME (the one that format your SD card too).
[Galaxy Tab General] xenomage:
Hi all,

i've managed to solve this problem by doing a few mix and matching. Currently my version (*#44336#) is showing:-

PDA:P1000DXJM4

Phone:P1000ZHJL1

CSC:Unknown

i see i don't have a CSC. Does it matter? Also, my reader hub is not working. Its giving me "Service Unavailable (4002)" (im sure i have internet connection, so connection problem is out).

Now the reason why i need to mix and match or update in the first place is this: my old version of JK2 firmware has a problem of not being able to connect to my exchange server using the native email client. So i did an upgrade using Odin. This somehow screwed up my versioning and everything else. :(

Thanks.

I've been searching the net for a hard case for my i9000m (currently in for repairs..)

I have looked at a few and these peak my interest, but I would like your input on what to buy and it doesn't have to be from something I post.

Here they are:

Case-Mate Tough

and

Anycall Punch Mesh Case

Thanks for your opinions!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] mac-wac:
About the Anycall Mesh case: it's nice and cool, doesn't add too much thickness to your phone but... it does not protect well. I am using mine about 2 months and it already cracked (not completly, some small piece in the upper left side had broken). It's still usable, but imo it's not very durable (i'm very careful about my phone). I'm looking for something with more protection, but I fear there will be nothing that stylish :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mortify1:
How about any kickstand cases that have a lip on the front to prevent screen damage?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mr.Hunk:
Problems with some hard cases is it might damage the color on the edges and most of them doesn't protect the upper top and bottom of the phone, so its not 100% protection.

But you have a good choice with a combination of hard and soft material in single case. The inside of the case that which comes in contact of the phone's body is rubber (silicon) and outside has a good hard fibre. Might be bit expensive but great value for money and protection of phone.

Otterbox cases
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] napster_doom:
this is another case from Casemate,

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Nirvana388:

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] ApplesRevenge:
I use the Case-mate Tough case.

Works great, I feel my phone is pretty safe from being in my pocket and possible drops.

It comes with a soft rubber layer case and a hard case for protection.

My only issue is that to me I can be pressing the power button on the side, without realising it sometimes.

Overall I highly reccomend it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] greedandenvy:
Has anyone used otterbox for galaxy s? would like to hear feedback. thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] memamu:
I ordered mine two days ago and go it two minutes ago. It fits perfect and gives a secure feeling right from the start. And it looks cool. Would you like to know more?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
It's a compromise.

The thicker the case, the more cumbersome it becomes, but the better protection it offers.

The thinner the case, the slimmer and lighter the phone is, but the less protection it offers.

I keep my phone in my jeans pocket, so a thick case like otterbox is completely unacceptable to me. Currently I am using a SGS leather flip open case. http://www.exportprive.com/advanced...escription=0&keywords=galaxy S&sort=2a&page=4
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Uss_Defiant:
Yeah, amazing protection on mine as well. only drawback is that the screen protector does not protect the entire screen and misses a lot of the buttons on the bottom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] memamu:
I use a screen protector by 3M. The Vikuiti DQC-160.

[EVO Shift 4G General] linkosffl:
So glad I traded in my Epic today for the Shift. This just topped it off.

Word.
[EVO Shift 4G General] silex:
You make a good point OP. I'm curious why you moved from the Epic? I'm actually contemplating going the other way around although I might give the Shift a second chance. It's starting to grow on me so as long as I can get around the battery dying in 4 hours thing.
[EVO Shift 4G General] XmentalX:
As a current owner of all 3 sprint 4G phones DONT DO IT dont move to the epic stick to one of the Evo's if the wobbly keyboard of the epic doesnt get you the laggy RFS (which can be corrected now) filesystem will, or lack of official froyo (yea the leak works great but lacks the polish feel) you also have the lack of girth it just feels like its going to break in your hands and the screen isnt quite as bright its vivid but only gets about 75% as bright as the evo.

I have some side by side shots if you would like to see em.
[EVO Shift 4G General] silex:
^ It's okay, but thanks for the offer. I played with all 3 in the Sprint store for an hour before making a decision. I'm just having second thoughts, because I'm missing a larger screen, but I'm hoping to get around it.

Yeah I found that nifty little feature my 2nd day owning the phone. It is so awesome, just another notch on the cool wall for this phone. Gmail still has the old select text feature but I think I can live with that haha.
[EVO Shift 4G General] ttown:
I nearly returned the phone for the same reason. I did a factory reset, then charged the phone until the light turned green, then unplugged and turned the phone off and recharged until the light turned green, then unplugged till the light turned off and then plugged in again until the light turned green.

It took about an hour each time, but now my battery is working great. I am only adding one app each cycle and will watch my battery usage.

Got 13:41 on my last charge! Give it a try.
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
There must have been something wrong with your setup. I'm 36 hours without a charge and at 30% battery left. I'm not doing anything different than I ever have. I've never had an android phone last this long not even my Optimus S which I thought was the best on battery.

I'm guessing you had something running at 100% cpu in the backround. I noticed I had a download hang up in the market and that killed my phone in a few short hours the first day I got it. I didnt know it was stuck trying to download until the next time I went into the market.
[EVO Shift 4G General] rhodiggah:
This is a very handy feature...good looking out.
[EVO Shift 4G General] edgemaster191:
i think the battery life is great, i'm getting between 13 and 15 hours a day and the battery is still at 35% when i plug it in.

i have Sync set to one hour: 2 gmail accounts, facebook and weather.

WiFi is always turned on (and connected about 80% of the time)

Bluetooth is always on and connected to my headset

4G is off (don't live in a 4G market)

GPS is off (turned it off to test 3G speeds and never turned it back on, i don't think it does much in th way of impacting battery life)

and my brightness is set to Auto.

i'm sure i could get more life out of it but i can't justify turning off all the phones features to do so.

this thing is night and day better than my Evo when it comes to battery life, i bought the Seidio 3500mah battery for my Evo and it only gets about 19 hours on a good day, stock battery i was lucky to get 8 hours.

haha funny thing though, i have my Evo on me for testing roms and such, i'm at 40 hours and it's at 27% on the extended battery, thats with everything but WiFi turned off and i hardly touch it during the day. :-P
[EVO Shift 4G General] silex:
Happy to report my battery woes are over! I was getting 4-6 hours out of the box, but then yesterday I did a hard reset with PRL+Profile update and that seemed to have done it! I will try power cycling it as suggested to help even more!

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Midi_Amp:
Hi guys, been a long time since I've visited XDA-Developers, boy does things change. I'm interested in buying a cheap second phone for myself, and eyeing the X10 Mini Pro. I read that Sony Ericsson officially kills possibility of Android 2.2 onwards on the X10 Mini Pro, what does it means for everyday users like me? I've been detached from mobile tech news for quite a while, so pardon my backlog of knowledge.

I also understands the system is locked, effectively blocking future port of new rendition of Android, so it's stuck on 2.1 for good.

What I intend to do with the phone is just basic email checking/replying, chat, phone, sms, calendar, social networking (mostly Twitter)... Well, that's that. Does the 2.1 is adequate to do just that?

Also, is there any issue I should know about the keyboard as I'm a heavy texter.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] loger8:
The x10 minis can do all that with flying colours, since back when they had 1.6, even chat! 2.1, or eclair, is the current and final version of android that we'll get officially, but hey, the x10 minis are pretty awesome already! froyo has overall performance improvements, and a lot of new goodies, but all that basic stuff you are talking has always been with us ;) and the keyboard is just great, very comfortable.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] prinzhernan:
The x10 mini pro does all that wonderfully. If you want a small cheap phone that gets the basic things done then it is a good choice. The keyboard is fantastic but so is the on screen keyboard. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Midi_Amp:
Thanks guys for the info. I'm smitten with the phone's compact design, I'm sure Sony Ericsson has a good reason for settling in on Android 2.1. I would be lying to say I'm not interested at all on Froyo or general Android update, but I don't even like plugging in my phones for official software update. Sure if gingerbread comes somehow for the Mini Pro (definitely from XDA-Dev user), I'd be willing to try.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] peterhugelberg:
and a 2.2 might come sooner than you think ;)

[Nexus S Accessories] Jonathon Grigg:
Just reading up on USB chargers, and I found somewhere in a thread here about phones defaulting to smaller ma when charging via USB if the connector didn't have the data pins shorted or something.

So, I was wondering a couple of things:

1) If the default charger supplies 700ma, do you think that is the most the Nexus S can draw? Does anyone have one of these shorted USB chargers? Does it charge the NS faster?

2) If it does charge faster, how hard would it be to do something similar to shorting the data connections? I have a generic AC-USB cable which I currently use for my iPod touch.

3) Is there a way to check if it is already shorted out? The USB charging port looks similar to ones on my computer, but I'm not sure what to look for.

Thanks for any help! Maybe if we can sort out this stuff, we can provide a solution for those looking for faster charging! :D
[Nexus S Accessories] AllGamer:
it does work safely, i'm using a 1000 mAh charger at home, and a 2000 mAh charger in the car both are from aftermarket eBay/DealExtreme charges.

no overheating

and charges faster than stock
[Nexus S Accessories] Jonathon Grigg:
Ok thankyou for that AllGamer, I'll think of possible ways I could mod the charger now :p
[Nexus S Accessories] hansmrtn:
The only reason it is slow is because of the USB charging brick instead of just a charger.
[Nexus S Accessories] XBOHDPuKC:
I know it's a wrong thread, but anyone has any pointers as to how to short a regular USB cable to make the phone think it's a power adapter cable?
[Nexus S Accessories] Jonathon Grigg:
Nah it's not the wrong thread (: that was one of my questions! I'm not sure exactly where you would do it, but maybe if you skinned the wire, then cut the data lines it would work?

Not sure which end you would do it on however, but that may not matter. Any other ideas?
[Nexus S Accessories] justinjms:
The two center pins in the USB carry the data. If you pull them out, the cable won't be able to connect to the computer.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Accessories] big_adventure:
Wow - you don't need to do this and you wouldn't want to in a computer anyway.

The USB specification says that 500ma (@ 5v) of current should be available from a computer's USB port. Of course, the actual wires can carry much more than this, so manufacturers can tell their phones to takes as much current as is offered.

Almost all computers limit their USB power output accordingly - this is why some opld usb-powered external hard drives needed 2 USB plugs to get enough power. The only computers that I am SURE emit significantly more than 500ma on their USB ports are first and second generation MacBook Airs.

Some phones, the N1 and every other HTC specifically, look for a specially shorted cable to "know if they are plugged into the wall adaptor" as opposed to a computer USB port. In reality, this is just a way to make you specifically buy HTC chargers as opposed to third-party off-brands, because plugging one of these phones into an off brand charger will limit the current draw to about 450ma.

If you want to know if your Android phone thinks that it is in "USB" mode or in "AC" mode, just plug the phone in, open the dialer, enter *#*#4636#*#* and then select battery info. If your phone is one that cares (not all do), it will say USB if it thinks it should be in USB charging mode, or AC if it thinks it should be in AC charging mode.

I would not try shorting out the middle pins in a cable and then plugging it into the computer. First, most will probably just disable the USB port completely, shutting off even power you could draw. Second, if it doesn't shut down, you run the risk that a badly-built USB port might not properly limit the current to 500ma - and since they are not designed to furnish more current than that, you might melt something expensive or start a fire. third, if you make a mistake, you risk shorting out either your phone or your computer, which might ruin your day, week or month, depending on your financial means to replace the system that cooks itself.

I would just run out to your local store, pay 15 bucks for a 2A third-party usb charger brick, and go to town. That will work perfectly - this is what I use, and it probably cuts the charge time by 30-40%. Obviously, this indicates that the NS is not capable of drawing a full 2A - I have not put a meter on it, but I would bet that it limits itself to somewhere just under an amp in.
[Nexus S Accessories] MaskedMarauder:
I have recently bought both a 2A wall charger and car charger and my phone does not recognise either of these as anything more than a 500mA source.

Is it really just a case of opening the car charger up and shorting out pins 2 & 3? they are currently not connected to anything in the charger.
[Nexus S Accessories] Si_NZ:
If it's indeed a matter of shorting the data lines, then I think you can skin the wire as suggested by others, but then cut the data lines, short the end that leads to the phone, leave the end to the computer open. I think it's the phone that tries to determine whether the data lines are shorted.

Edit: Can someone measure the continuity between the data pins with the stock charger? I wonder if they are shorted. I'm still waiting for my Nexus S to arrive, so can't test it.
[Nexus S Accessories] chadrockey:
Yup, the data lines in the stock Nexus S charger ARE shorted.

I just modified a cheap 1A car charger by popping it open, soldering the 2 data lines together and putting it back.

The report on the Nexus S before I did this (*#*#4636#*#*) said "USB", and afterwards it now says "AC".

I will report back after I make a road trip if this improves the GPS + Pandora + Screen in car situation. I suspect it will.

----------------

Yup, the car charger seemed to actually maintain and increase the battery this time. Seems good.
[Nexus S Accessories] lambda30:
The NS supports chargers output to a max of 1000mA, as it says on the back of it, where the battery resides.

[Desire HD General] craigdhd:
That's a shame, really fancy some decent klipsch phones, currently use s2's which are already great, but would like to keep remote functionality. I wish HTC had made the remote and mic so they'd separate from the buds cos the earbuds suck.

Anyone know of a good set of earphones, preferably not too pricey, with a working remote?
[Desire HD General] Bestevaer:
I bought the NU Force NE-M7. Great sound and with a mic. The mic has only one button for answering/ending calls and play/pauze.

Oh, and only for around $50,- Allot of other people give positive feedback on the earphones on the internet.
