[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rakeshchn:
Thanks, I appreciate your reply (my phone died again in 2 hours after my first post). I have tried the super power app before and it is good. It can switch 3G on/off when phone sleeps. But that is not exactly my issue. If the phone is always hooked to 3G network and no actual data transfer happens (3G symbol will be there, but arrows will be greyed out showing no real activity), we know Vibrants give average 20 hours battery life. For me the arrows over 3G are always lit showing

constant data transfer

on 3G which is killing the battery. I cannot for my life figure out what process is constantly consuming data. Is there a background process monitoring app which will capture processes that are not reported in "Running apps" under settings menu?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJBunch1228:
I'm not sure what the problem may be, if it looks like everything has been killed. If you are stock, do a factory reset and failing that contact tech support. If you are rooted and ROM'd, ODIN to stock and/or try a new ROM.

And not to beat a dead horse, but that SuperPower app is the shiz. Unless you specifically specify an app to run while the phone is sleeping it will kill ALL processes that are sucking data. If you have not tried SuperPower since this problem has arisen, I recommend trying it.

There are quite a bit of differences. On GB 2.3, the UI changed a little and further optimized for performance along with better power management. New features I'm looking for is the integrated copy/paste functionality along with SIP/VoIP capability. I'm sure there are other new features.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Settai:
Theres not much there besides slight aesthetic changes. The only other thing I remember about GB is that it uses less CPU to register presses on the touch screen, and that they did some changes to the SDK to make it better for game developers.

I have also heard its optimized for the procesor we use (Hummingbird) as opposed to just the Snapdragon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelpeddie:
I recently upgraded my phone to 2.2 (officially, through Samsung Kies) I have no custom roms or modifications, basically completely stock.

However since updating I am experiencing 'ghost touches' to the top of my screen, like someone was tapping it repeatedly. I have to lock the phone then unlock it to try and stop this, which only works 75% of the time.

I have reset the phone back to factory defaults and I'm still experiencing the issues.

Not sure what to do now! I'd really like to keep 2.2 for the gps fixes and improvements but if the problem is related I'd rather have a useable phone, so is it possible to go back?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Guess its your phone as first i have heard of that with 2.2 .

Could try a factory reset wiping all data .

I would like to know how I can go back to the official rom, thanks a lot !!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
That's not a custom ROM, that's the debug build from Google. You got it as a mistake. Your phone got loaded with the wrong software by Google/Samsung at the factory.

If you want to go the path of unlocking and flashing someone's nandroid backup of a "regular" phone, go to this thread.

Your best thing to do is to contact this guy from Google (nnk@google.com) in this thread, or take the phone back and exchange for a clean one.

[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
From everything I read, it seems that Wireless Tether only supports Ad Hoc mode with the Samsung Epic (DK28) using Froyo.

That said, what should my IP settings be, since DHCP isn't supported with Ad Hoc????

I am using the 192.168.2.0 network, so I assumed that my device should be 192.168.2.2 and the default GW should be 192.168.2.1. Is there a Sprint DNS server I should be using?
[Epic 4G General] mkasick:
Sure it is. What device are you using where it isn't?
[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
IBM Lenovo Thinkpad to Samsung Epic???
[Epic 4G General] mkasick:
Lame, that's a limitation of ThinkVantage.

One option would be to just disable it and use the built-in Windows XP wireless configuration manager. There's instructions for disabling it, or you can just uninstall "ThinkVantage Access Connections" entirely.

If you want to do static IP though, here's the parameters of the default network:

Network 192.168.2.0

Netmask: 255.255.255.0

Broadcast: 192.168.2.255

Gateway: 192.168.2.254

Nameserver: 192.168.2.254

The DHCP server hands out addresses in the range 192.168.2.100-105, so you should configure the client's static IP to use something outside this range (192.168.2.1-99, 106-253). For example, 192.168.2.1 works fine.

Note that with a static IP you won't get a client connection notification on the phone since that relies on DHCP. This also means the MAC ACL won't work, so leave that disabled.
[Epic 4G General] klbjr:
Can someone please suggest a alternate way to restore data besides Titanium, MyBackup Pro & CWM? Was having problems after flashing Froyo but have narrowed it down. If I flash Froyo update, then ROM. Everything is fine but after I restore apps and data using any of the mentioned apps I start getting FC's. I'm not restoring any of the phone's settings just my apps and data.
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
I would guess that the problem isn't the restore *method*.. and more to do with what you're restoring. What I do in Titanium is, categorize my Data apps.

First I restore my SMS database and call logs. Those are (in my case, at least) the only 2 databases that *aren't* stored on the cloud.

I restore games (with their respective data) last.

But I think that would be a place to start to figure out what's giving you the FCs.
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
Good advice your restoring data from two different roms. You can get away with it with certain games but if restore 1 at a time so you know what one is conflicting. Pita but thats your only choice.
[Epic 4G General] Teh Mighty Napkin:
I think it would be nice if a good tutorial is written. From what I've read, people who switch ROMs a lot, or even b/t different versions of ROMs run into problems when they restore data.
[Epic 4G General] klbjr:
This is crazy! POS Epic! Never had or have this problem with my Evo and I was a flash-a-holic till I found Myn. So quick question about Titanium that I never fully understood. Which entry is my SMS database? [SMS/MMS/APN] Dialer Storage 2.2.1 or [SMS/MMS PREFS] Messaging 2.2.1 and which one is my call logs [CONTACT/CALLS] Contacts Storage 2.2.1 or something else? With my Evo I just restore all of them with no problems but my Epic always seems to go screwy afterwards.

Edit

Nevermind. Just stumbled on to Titanium Backup's Wiki.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Futur Innovations:
Are battery mods (for the status bar) interchangeable between roms?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Not usually, differences if framework mods between ROMs means that flashing an incompatible battery icon mod can break features and cause bootloops.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NilsP:
In general the answer is no. The images are but not the actual framework since each dev has different mods in the framework.

If you took the framework-res.apk from one ROM and put it in another ROM based on the same framework it may work but other mods and themes might break. Definitely can't do it between say a stock ROM to a Desire or Evo based ROM. Will more than likely boot loop.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Futur Innovations:
Ok. That makes sense. I have found some themes that change the status bar to blue icons and such :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NilsP:
If you like a certain battery icon just ask the dev of the ROM your on if they will create a flashable zip for you. If you provide the icons they most likely will.

Is it worth going too? Pros cons?
[Fascinate General] Thrillhouse847:
Psst...search function...

But to answer your question, it really depends on you and how you use your phone. Eveyone will have different pros/cons based on their individual experience. If you think you need it then go for it, if you're unsure then don't.

[Fascinate General] ChrisDDD:
As was said, a lot depends on how you use your phone.

I was always down on Voodoo because of the potential problems it can cause, but I gave it a try a week or so ago. Honestly, I haven't seen much if any improvement in speed, but I probably don't do the type of things that would benefit the most from it - frequent read/writes to the file system. I think for general use, it really doesn't offer much.

That said, there's nothing wrong with it, a Voodoo kernel installs just like any other, it does it's conversion to EXT4 automatically, and it also converts back to RFS automatically after you set it to do so.

Even though I haven't noticed much of an improvement in performance, I figure I'll stick with it mostly for the new red Clockwork recovery.

The only con is that you have to make sure to disable the lagfix and convert the file system back to rfs BEFORE flashign a non-Voodoo kernel. Aside from that, there's really no other cons.

Just make sure you fully understand what's it's doing and how to disable it when/if need be.
[Fascinate General] woolster22:
Doesn't change a whole lot. I found a few apps load and operate much more smoothly, with a slight (maybe just placebo affect) increase in responsiveness. It really is not all that complicated to install, and I had zero issues with it. I stayed away after seeing all the horror stories, but after kaos showed up and informed us that we would need voodoo installed to eventually run his froyo rom I figured I would be making the jump eventually anyway and went ahead and loaded it. Just spend time reading through all the various walkthroughs and fixes. Make sure you understand what it is you have to do and follow the directions. Make sure you are comfortable with Odin in case something does indeed go wrong. I have yet to bork my phone and have to odin back to stock, but it could happen, so be prepared.

Did I mention read through all the threads and make sure you follow the steps to a t? Once you think you understand the process, read some more. Don't know about you, but I'd feel like an asshole if I left myself with a 500$ paperweight because I couldn't be bothered to read a few pages on a message board...
[Fascinate General] zachsx:
Thanks for the quick responses!
[Fascinate General] kent1146:
Noob question - what is Voodoo?

I've been using it for about two weeks now... but it can be a little confusing for someone who is just coming into the custom ROM scene.

Thanks.
[Fascinate General] ChrisDDD:
It's a collection of enhancements to the Galaxy S phones, the primary one being a lag fix that converts the file system(s) to standard Linux EXT4 from Samsung's hobbled together RFS. The issue commonly associated with Voodoo is when someone flashes a non-Voodoo kernel over a Voodoo one. Since non-Voodoo kernels don't support EXT4, they can't read any of the partitions that were converted to EXT4 and all sorts of issues ensue. But it's not not all bad, converting back to RFS before flashing the new kernel avoids the problem, and even if it occurs (if someone doesn't convert back), there are clear steps to recover.

In addition to the lag fix, Voodoo has slight tweaks to the color settings and more significant tweaks to the sound options and settings.

[Fascinate General] Naris:
There doesn't seem to be a HUGE difference in speed with the lagfix, but there's quite a massive boost in sound quality once you download the Voodoo Control App from the marketplace and use decent headphones. Not bad for an hour or two of downloading and flashing. The only worrisome thing seems to be the massive amount of warnings about flashing anything over the Voodoo kernals...
[Fascinate General] ChrisDDD:
I agree. Honestly, I haven't noticed *any* objective increase in speed with the lag fix. I suspect 99% of the lag people experience is attributable to the bloatware Verizon saw fit to load on the phone, not any inherent deficiency in the file system used. Not arguing that EXT4 isn't better than RFS, I just don't think it makes that much difference in actual use. When it comes to kernels, I think there's an enormous placebo effect. Unless you're overclocked, I'd challenge anyone to show *measurable* improvements in real performance - not just meaningless benchmarks, but real improvements in things that would be noticeable in the actual use of the phone.

I wouldn't worry about the warnings though, they're not because the lag fix is inherently dangerous, it's more because of the number of people who can't or choose not to read and get themselves into trouble flashing a non-Voodoo kernel without first disabling the lag fix. Follow the forums for any length of time and you'll be amazed at how many posts you see saying:

"I have no idea what Voodoo is, but I installed it anyway, because I don't want any lag, and then I heard about StupidFast, so I installed that, and now I have zero internal memory, what gives?"

If they had made any attempt to understand what Voodoo is and does, they'd have avoided the problem. But in the end, it's pretty straight forward to fix even if you inadvertently screw it up, so again, I wouldn't worry.

I posted these originally on the CDMA Hero boards, but decided I wanted to share these with more of the community. So, here are two zips with docks for ADW EX. These may work with LPP, I don't know why they wouldn't, but I can't confirm that as I don't own a copy. Any comments, positive or negative, are appreciated. :) Let me know what you think!

+++ INSTRUCTIONS +++

1. Download the attached zip.

2. Extract the contents.

3. Place extracted folder anywhere on your sd card.

4. You may need to reboot or unmount and remount your sd card to get the gallery to see the new folder.

5. Use the included images to pimpify your device.

25% transparency:

50% transparency:

75% transparency:

Images of the rest of the docks are available in my photobucket album.

I left these three here, as transparent docks seem to be fairly popular, so this will make it a little easier to get to them. Vote on the thread! 5-stars! :P

#2 zip has the original 22 docks I made on 1/26/11.

Glossy zip has 24 glossy style docks I made on 1/27/11.

Flat zip has 25 flat style docks I made on 1/27/11.

#3 zip has 26 docks of various designs made by me on 2/1/11.

Little harsh... ive used this place for the Hero and Galaxy S2 a lot and see these "USE SEARCH!" posts all the time.

I appreciate the work, voluntary, the site, the resources - A+ to you all, plaudits all around, and a big TY to both Googles Open Source and the communities dedication. These things are designed to become obselete, you lot keep them going :D

But the standard shouts, moans, and groans for pretty innocent questions borders on bullying. Half the people haven't much experience at this kind of thing, a reply with a link would help a lot and prob take 2 secs from the regulators.

Obviously therell be some spam and crap and morons about, but hopefully in the minority. Don't forget the human side please.

The older devices should really be left at an operable level, too. Why force , say, Gingerbread or ICS into something that will run like a dog? Just because you can?

Android versions come pretty rapidly and the vast array of devices and hacks and tools to root/bootload them means there's a million different ways things can be done.

I'd also say once a kernel/loader/rom is able to run the basic Google stuff, access the market, make calls, emails, and sms then its ready to ship. The longer work on bug fixing can just be done over time. EG Leomar/Checkrom on the Galaxy S2 has a rom-kitchen app, an easy way to add features, themes, kernels etc. If you have to, CWM and Rom Manager can do it through the bootloader too.

Just my 2c worth. Don't mean to sound negative and I understand it's a tech-focused forum but sometimes it does get silly. Like a NEW BEST ROM EVER! (standard source, slightly modified, bit of eye candy) or things like that.

In other words, it's mostly hacking features in (and out) that goes on, taking code from other places, altering a few init files etc - plus a big shout out too the theme designers and icon makers...

(just never forget you're working off someone elses code most of the time, and It's nice to see you all share, but don't take all the plaudits and scream at anyone who asks why app xxxx has stopped working....)
