flash to firefly. over 24 hours of battery :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phoenix-Lead:
More like 36 for me! No lie either.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomZero:
Cool, I'll try this, thanks!

By default, wifi does get turned off when the screen goes dark and I haven't changed it.

I've also been tring to flash to a new ROM (been trying Android 2.2), but Kies won't load my phone). I think I'll research other methods when I have time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
In most custom 9000 based ROMs, wifi is set to "never off" by default.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomZero:
Ah! Didn't know that. I'm extremely new to this whole smartphone thing (just got mine a week ago) and haven't actually done any hardcore (stuff that requires flashing and whatnot) customizing yet.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
If u r not heavy on data and use it for things like mails and chats, and esp when in an area with no proper 3G coverage, u can switch to EDGE and get out of 3G. 3G sucks more battery compared to EDGE.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomZero:
So I wasn't able to complete all the steps to kind of fix the battery problem, but I plugged it in to almost 100% (I think it was like 98% or something, I had to go out so I had to unplug it), but when I got back I plugged it in again and let it charge overnight. This morning however, it was still at 100%, and now, about 8.5 hours later, it's only at 73% so I think maybe it just had to normalize it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Give it some time to normalize. And charge showing 98% when unplugged at 100% is normal.

And yes, seeing 60% battery left after an hour of calls and tasks involving an hour plus of display on after a day's work, apart from push emails, etc (~14 hours standby) isn't so new anymore to me.

Stop watching the battery so closely for about a week and u'll be all set :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerkai:
I was on darkys 8.1 rom with jk4 modem, calibrated the battery one time and I went 18 hours. Starting from 98%

6 hours were phone calls, 1.5 hours of text messaging. 2 hours of power amp . The rest was pretty much just standby/idle time.

Though, I don't get that anymore though.. Jk4 has gone to **** for me. I used to get full signal majority of the time, and for places where other people go no bars, I got one or two. Now its pretty horrible it makes me sad ;(

Now i got problem when i try to configure launcher rows, columns ask me to restard launcher and it restart without any changes...so its always like "default" can't do noting with screens, any change wont save...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajuki:
You need to delete the launcher pro files from dbdata and data folder. I hope you have one alternate launcher to navigate and root explorer or similar to do so. After that reinstall the apk after placing it on the system/app folder.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeBeSad:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajuki:
Download GO launcher from market, download Root explorer or some file manager that gives your root access. then find all the instances of Launcherpro and delete them. Install the launcherpro again. Will work. I solved it like this.

Hello ladies & Gents

Sorry, i have had a good look around on the forums but not found what i needed or it was a little confusing, so sorry to start another

My phone seems to have issue with the screen changing colour/ or the phone completely dying when the bottom part of the phone is touched. i have read about the problem before, seems other have had it.

i just need to get the phone back to factory settings as best as possible, i have played around with android on it, changing the radio and HSPL etc

Hspl was 1.42 before and the radio was 2.7_ _ _

thanks very much guys,

Go here and download the Vodafone ROM...

http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all

When you've done that, unzip the exe with WinRar (or similar) and rename the .nbh file to leoimg.nbh

Copy that to the root folder of your SD card and then, with the SD card in the device, turn off, hold the volume button down and briefly press the power button. Keep the volume down button held and it should flash back to stock ROM.

I've just had mind returned after I had a fault. 7 days from the pick up to delivery and its running great. :D

I flashed a stock rom using the SD card method i.e. download the setup from HTC (or anywhere else as long as its an offical version). Open the .exe with winrar or similar and extract the nbh file. Rename this to leoimg.nbh and put it at the root of your SD card.

Power up your phone making sure to hold down the volume down key and you just follow the instructions from there. You'll see it resets everything back to factory default.

Good luck.

Hello,

I've done with a bluetooth mini keyboard.

When connecting with my HTC Touch II have not had any problem, but I do not work, the second key functions. As much as I hold down the FN key not write the symbols, I think it must be some configuration or drivers. Anyone can help me?

Thanks

I have the same problem with my mini bluetooth keyboard. I think the funktion key is for pc and mac. But that seems strange. Will let you know if i solve this problem.

Hey,

I'm not allowed to answer posts in the developement Area, which is why I'm gonna ask here:

I'm using Ezterys' Gingerbread ROM at the moment.

Before that I installed CynogenMod 6, which I needed Danger SPL for.

Ezterys' Rom works just fine, but there is this EZ FRankenCYAN Gingerbread ROM, which I wanna try, but here is why it doesn't work:

-- Installing: SDCARD:ezfrankencyan.zip
I:Set boot command "boot-recovery"
Finding update package...
I:Update location: SDCARD:ezfrankencyan.zip
Opening update package...
I:Update file path: /sdcard/ezfrankencyan.zip

E:Error in /sdcard/ezfrankencyan.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I:Set boot command ""

Looks like I got the wrong Bootloader, because I DO have DangerSPL, which is 1.33.2005...

Do I really have to change HBOOT to make this ROM work?! Where to I get the right HBOOT? Can i just flash a zip to make it work?
[G1 General] langersteff:

Hi,

Is there an App that does video calling from phone to PC using the front facing camera on GT-I9000b?

I've searched quite a bit for it, but so far it seems that only tango uses the front facing cam.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] S1GNZ:
Hello carlosrjbr,

I'm not sure, but you might take a look at Fring. Heard some rumors you could videochat when you are signed into WLM.

And on other forums I saw that it might not be available yet, as it isn't available for other platforms also (iOS, iPhone 3/4).

Hope you find this information usefull.

Sincerely yours,

S1GNZ
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] snapper.fishes:
Mac has facetime.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Tehpriest:
Try ooVoo that might work
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] carlosrjbr:
Yeah, I tried ooVoo... unfortunately it doesnt support the front cam in the i9000b...

I guess I'm out of luck then, I'll try to contact ooVoo support to see if they can resolve the camera issue.

Thanks for the replies!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] frriction:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] quakermaas:
I use it a lot and it works well, but only the back facing cam as yet :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Neyc:
Hy

Im using Fring for quite a bit and works like a charm with front camera. Works on wifi and hsdpa/hsupa networks. Phone to phone and phone to pc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Ax.Destruction:
DroidcamX works like a charm.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] carlosrjbr:
Fring has a camera issue with only the international versions of the Galaxy S. Btw, how do you do fring to pc?

I'll test the one mentioned above... Thanks guys
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jebise101:
yeah i been tring a few vid apps and tango seem the best. I was able to chat with my aunt in alberta on her iphone using my SGS from ontario. I dont like fring because you have to register and its a pain.

I wish it was just as easy as apples facetime and not resort to 3rd party apps or if we can get skype video calls.

Dumb question can you make video calls from android to android devices without 3rd party apps? Like SGS to SGS or SGS to Desire etc
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Maddmatt:
If your carrier supports it you can do a video call to any phone with video calling support including Nokias dating back several years.

Just choose "video call" instead of call when you select a contact or use the video call icon in the dialler.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jebise101:
well when ever i try that it says video call failed. Well this is calling to an iphone 4 so its not a prefect test.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] theraider:
Iphone 4 doesn't support videocall :/
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jebise101:
then explain why i was chatting with my aunts iphone 4 using tango yesterday
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] carlosrjbr:
The iPhone 4 only supports video calling through use of wi-fi or 3G (in some cases). The actual old school network video call is not supported by the iphone.

So you can use tango, skype or facetime (with another iphone), but you can't use the video call from the dialer when using it with an iphone.

hi,

first of all, kudos to everyone for this great forum and i have to admint that the vast amount of information available is awesome.

I am an Android virgin and just bought my Desire HD a day before and i am simply in love with it. Thanks to the forum, now my DHD is perma rooted, adfree and does not have any bloatware(i learned the terms from the forum only :p)

while deleting the factory installed app, i deleted peep as i was hardly using it, now i have noticed that twitter is no longer available in the friendstream accounts and now my friendstream is only showing updates from facebook.

I checked the accounts under setting and now it only has facebook and flickr. it does not show twitter.

is there any way i can reinstall friendstream without having to factory reset the phone.

or can i add twitter account back to it.

any help on this will be highly appreciated.

thanks in advance

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soulzero:
So basicly at first, it was TOTALLY broken. It was stuck on landscape mode if i enabled autorotation. And in settings>display>calibration it just wouldnt move.

So then i deleted the file “ms3c_yamaha.cfg“ in data/system (with SU file manager in the market) and then rerun yamaha with QtADB ( entered the code below in shell)

su
/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha

I thought this fixed it, but playing asphalt5 for example doesnt work.

And when i go to settings>display>calibration; i can only use the top half, it just doesnt go passed the middle half below!

Any ideas anyone? I also tried clearing dalvik cache after it but it doesnt help.

As far as I know that is how all of them work... unfortunately. However, if someone does know a way around this, that would rock!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
It's most definitely not standard, Digital Outcast! A couple of ROMs have this bug (or is it a feature?), just try some others.

MDJ's Gingerbread 2.6 sure has functioning volume buttons with a disabled screen, and it also features long-press to skip tracks (w/ screen off only).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Digital Outcast:
Wow really? I guess all the ROM's I've been running are "bugged", hah!

I would love those features... but are those available in 2.3 (Gingerbread) only? Is that maybe what it is?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Of all the roms I've tried (and that's quite a few) I have only experienced it 2-3 times. Granted, Sense builds never lasted more than a couple of hours so I can't vouch for them, I'm more of a stock guy.

I suppose you gave up trying after a few roms without it :)

It's been a feature for a very long time, I think even the stock 1.5 rom of my ol' HTC Magic had it.

Just feed your phone some Cyanogenmod love. Not only is it a wonderful ROM, the community behind it is should be an example for other communities and even companies.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Digital Outcast:
Yeah, I should. CM roms are so clean and fast, I've used them before and always go back and forth. Even have one backed up with CWM when I feel like trying it out again. I just always tend to go back to the HTC roms because I like some of the HTC apps and widgets. I'm sure I could find replacements but never really care to look that far into it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] StephanV:
Clean indeed, yet one of the most fully featured available.

First of all, Gingerbread stock looks pretty slick. Sense still has some pretty good apps, bust most have nice replacements.

Fancy widget is similar to the cliché weather widget. I barely used it but it's popular and well featured, free version available on market.

Dialer One is a popular dialer, similar to the HTC one. Wasn't quite on par with HTC dialer in terms of design, but that may very well have changed by now.

The paid version of LauncherPro (#1 home replacement app imo) features some very nice widgets: facebook, twitter (and a combined one), calendar, contacts, ... Even without these widgets the free version is still a winner, beats the Sense home app handsdown!
