[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] /dev/iraq:
Hi All,

I've updated my phone to Android 2.2 and now I'm trying to transfer the phonebook to the phone with no success.

I have the backup file which has the extension ".SPB" but after the update to 2.2 kies is not able to detect the phone and I already tried with another pc.

I've also uploaded the phonebook file to the phone and tried to import it but it seems that there is no option to import phonebook from a file.

Is it possible to import the phonebook file without using kies.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] /dev/iraq:
It could be done by opening the the SPB file in kies and save it as vcf, then copy the vcf files to the phone and import it from the contacts using the import/export option :)
[Venue Pro General] stillryan:
I searched and got nothing in the forum about homebrew, so i figured i'd ask about it. Is it possible for us with this phone to do any of the homebrew stuff out there? I have been without my laptop so cannot really try anything yet, but I see articles about little apps and aesthetic changes people are doing to their Samsung and HTC wp7 phones and i want in on it too.

I loved that homebrew community when i had my Palm Pre back in the day and had it hacked to my liking. I really hope we can do this with our phones too. I have looked into it a little but, but i don't think the guys who have done the unlocking and developing for wp7 have used, tried or have access to our phone. I really hope I'm wrong and just haven't had any luck searching for answers, but so far i haven't really found anything specifically stating whether anything works on the DVP yet.

If they have, could someone point me in the right direction and i'll continue learning on my own? If not, then i hope we can some day.

Thanks for any help y'all can provide.
[Venue Pro General] GoodDayToDie:
I'm looking to attack this problem from the other end. I'm the developer of one of those "little apps" you mentioned; specifically the one that lets you change the Search function in IE (when you hit the Search button or mis-type a URL).

I'm working with a homebrew library that more-or-less handles HTC, Samsung, and LG, but completely doesn't support Dell. I'd like to get it working with Dell so that

A) You all can use my app

B) More homebrew apps can be written for the DVP

Some questions that I have (answers to any are appreciated):

How can I programmatically identify a Dell phone? (On an HTC, you can check for HKLM\Software\HTC in the registry.)

Does anybody have ProvisionXML working on the Venue Pro yet? (This is a really handy way to make changes to the OS.)

Does anybody have a way to get access to the file system, even read-only, on the Venue Pro?

Thanks a bunch. In the meantime (and possibly helpful to this cause) there's a homebrew project called "Functional Webserver" in the WP7 Hacking forum. It should work on Dell phones (I think) and means you should have at least Socket (networking) APIs. It also gives (read-only) access to the \Windows directory, which may be very useful for getting other stuff...
[Venue Pro General] nabiscuit:
I would like to submit my services to help you get that information... However, I'm not really sure how to get that to you. If you'd be happy to lay out directions so I can get you that information, I'll happily do it on my Dell Venue Pro.

Thanks for the help!
[Venue Pro General] GoodDayToDie:
@nabiscuit Thanks for the offer. The first step is making sure your phone is developer-unlocked, so you can side-load (install directly, not from Marketplace) XAP application packages. All homebrew apps are distributed in this way. The official way to do this is to have a Microsoft developer account (http://create.msdn.com/) although for the next few weeks ChevronWP7 should also work.

For the first question, try installing a Registry Viewer or Registry Editor app - there are a number of them available, both on this site and on TouchXperience (I like the TouchXperience one a lot). Go poke around for anything that looks like a distinctive registry key or value. The most likely place is under HKLM. You could also just do a registry search (the better apps have at least some capability for such searches) for "Dell" as *anything* with that string is probably distinctive.

For the second, it will take access to native code. Using the "Functional Webserver" app you can download some file from the phone's /Windows directory. Checking them for useful COM exports would be helpful, although I'm not the person to ask about doing that - I can do NT drivers and I can do managed code, but COM is not my thing. Try asking for help with this in the general Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking forum (http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=606).

For the third question, I could actually whip up a small app that *might* work already. You could also try Advanced Explorer (XDA) or TouchXplorer (TouchXperience) although I don't think either is guaranteed to work outside of HTC phones. If you're willing to try running an app that will check for read and write in a number of harmless parts of the file system, I can code one up for you to run and report results back.

Thanks again!
[Venue Pro General] gabrialxue:
I'd love to get some homebrew development going, is there anything I can do to help?
[Venue Pro General] GoodDayToDie:
Try getting in touch with notebookgrail (http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=3174632) as he seems to be pulling apart the DVP native libraries and finding lots of cool stuff to do with their COM interfaces. I don't know if he has registry write yet - one of the core functions that a lot of homebrew apps want - but if so I can work on getting it integrated into a nice cross-device library for writing apps which (should... grrr Samsung) work on any phone.
[Venue Pro General] notebookgrail:
Did u mean to point it to me as i was the one who did pull apart the native libs.?

If not, sorry for the intrusion.
[Venue Pro General] jessej:
Yes, send your request to notebookgrail. I am not on his level for development purposes. But I do appreciate the comment.
[Venue Pro General] GoodDayToDie:
Whoops, sorry about that notebookgrail! I must have looked at a response instead of the OP by accident. I've fixed my post above. Thanks a bunch for the work you've done. Any word on registry writing?

[Dash 3G, Snap General] Bones Justice:
I have been using a slingbox with my T-Mobile Dash 3G for over six months with no problems. I used it on Monday of last week with no problems. I didn't need to use it again until Friday. But when I tried to use it, I got a message saying a problem has occurred with Slingplayer.exe. The program ran long enough to check for updates (which there are none) and attempted to locate my slingbox before giving the error; the same thing happens every time that I try to use it now.

I have not installed anything new on my phone. I use very few third-party applications and haven't added anything new for months. I checked my slingbox and it appears to be working properly. I can use it with a computer with no problems.

I tried uninstalling slingplayer mobile and re-installing. I still get the same results, an error after it tries to locate. I have tried a soft reset with no change. I am considering doing a hard reset but I don't see how that will change anything.

I tried downloading a free program that is supposed to do the same as slingplayer and it basically does the same. I get an error when it tries to locate my slingbox. All of my other programs are working perfectly.

Is it possible that T-Mobile is blocking it? I can't see how I'm using any more data than I have in months past. I can still watch YouTube as much as I want with no problems.

I looked at slingmedia's website but they don't have any helpful information.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Hakim Rahman:
you'll get way out of http://answers.slingbox.com/message/13962 # 13 962
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Bones Justice:
Thanks for replying. I checked the link you provided but that does not appear to be the problem I'm having; mine worked for about six months then stopped working unexpectedly even though I have not made any changes.

---

Edit: I found the solution on my own a while ago but I forgot to come back and post the solution! It seems that my internal memory was too low for slingplayer to run so it would just crash whenever I tried to start it. Moving some programs to external memory (SD card) did the trick. I'm not sure what the threshold is as the program does not list memory requirements.

Anyways, still an awesome phone, even better since I can watch my slingbox, too! :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] seal:
Hi

I hope I am not repeating stuff but I just worked this out.

If you live out of the Zune pass areas and have the zune pass work around working on your PC then just change your "SYSTEM LOCAL" to English (United States) or where your Zune pass is at.

I had my System Local As Australia and it wouldn't let me sync any Zune pass music to the phone.

After changing my local all is working perfect.... Now I love WP7 even more.

I still can't download from phone, Download is still greyed out when I press and hold on the album or song. I can stream the entire song from marketplace so it must recognise that I have a zune pass.

We need to work out how to make the phone think it is set to US but with out change the timezone.

Anyone know how to solve that?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fyedoe:
I bought the Mytouch 4g on black Friday and found problems with the battery life in the first week. 5 Hours maximum without even using it. The camera worked randomly. I exchanged the phone for another one and all my problems were solved. I use the phone for gaming mostly and that drains the battery obviously :-p.

I purchsed the powerskin case from the T-mobile store and I couldn't be more satisfied. I can use my phone for 6-7 hours straight playing games and browsing the web and it still has a full battery with a bar left on the power skin. It may be a little bulky but it brings be back to the good ol days when phones were bricks and adds that extra padding that I feel is necessary for protection. The price tag on the powerskin was $70 at the store but when it was scanned it came up as $40.00.

I highly suggest this product for those with fear of their phone dying unexpectedly.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JOMOID:
Just because of root your battery is that great? My brightness is off all day and my Data is off and my battery MIGHT last me till like 10:00 PM..
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjwaugh:
This is probably a silly question, and after quite a while searching I haven't found any real answer, but here goes:

Going from original out-of-the-box to rooted RoyalGinger 2.1, the battery use by my Display has gone WAY down. Like from always being #1 to usually being well below Cell Standy, Phone Idle, Wi-Fi, etc. And it's definitely not that I'm using the Display less.

Has anyone else seen this? Does it have something to do with how RoyalGinger, Gingerbread, etc. calculate battery usage? Is it normal?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznprodgy:
yes its normal. you came from stock MySense UI(stock Glacier), and Sense builds are known to be battery whores because they look awesome, have loads of interactive widgets, and lots of bloatware as well. going to an AOSP build(CM7, RG) the ROM is very lightweight and contains little to no bloatware and still as fast, maybe even faster. just look at the size of the files...Sense=300+MB, AOSP=80-110MB. plain and simple, all of the bloat consumes more power on your display
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjwaugh:
Thanks for the prompt reply. I guess I didn't expect the Sense bloat to be reflected in the display usage. Does "Display" include the touch interface as well? If so, I guess I can see why Sense would show up as display.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synaesthetic:
Display counts more than just the power used by the LED backlighting.

I plugged my phone in yesterday at 14 hours of uptime with 45% battery remaining, after a day of fairly heavy use. Close to three hours of music listening, two hours of screen-on time and 3G/wifi web browsing, forty minutes of voice calls and a few SMS.

Using CM7 nightly #143 and insanity v3 kernel, 122/1017 clocks with smartass governor. I'm sure if I switched from smartass to conservative my battery life would increase a bit, but I like the smoothness that smartass gives me, and even on a day of brutally heavy use, I'll still come home with at least a quarter charge left.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dung8604:
Here's mine. Don't post attention to the time, I rebooted a couple times, it's probably been about five hours on battery. I don't do too many games per se, but I do browse xda and facebook a lot
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjwaugh:
here's mine (i'm too new to post links):

15h 12m 37s on battery

Android System 44%

Cell standby 22%

Phone idle 18%

Voice calls 8%

Wi-Fi 6%

Display 5%

as you can see (er, read), the display is really low. not sure what's up with system (maybe scanning the sdcard?), usually it's just standby and idle at the top. this is on RG2.1 with the display on auto brightness with defaults.

so this really is normal?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznprodgy:
yep, that looks about normal for AOSP builds
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericjwaugh:
Well I won't complain. Like I mentioned, I was really surprised at the low battery consumption of the display. Didn't expect that much difference just by changing ROMs. Wish I would've rooted a long time ago.
