[General Questions and Answers] Zugshad:
Hey all.. Bought a Captivate while I was home for R&R ..got to play around with it while i was home to make sure I wanted a Android over the iPhone 4 as I was a previous iPhone 3G user.. well needless to say very happy with my choice.

I came back to the sandbox and using it as a mp3 player over my ipod and for the games etc as I can use it in flight mode with wifi :) ... i was reading up on how to root and flash etc and took the plunge.. i rooted and followed the guides to load the new Cognition 3.04 as that one looked great and supposed great for new users and what not... i had a couple issues after the flash i noticed but corrected.. not sure if it is common, but i did the backup with Titanium and copied to computer etc like instructed.. after i did the flash, i did the "restore missing apps + data" like it said as apparently the install all or something like that could cause issues.. well my contacts, sms, wifi data etc was missing.. i had a hard time finding out how to restore but I finally got it.. so that isnt much of an issue, just wondered if that is common??

The main concerns I have was that I am using the AT&T model Captivate and when I return home in a few weeks, I wanted to make sure that I would not have an issue using it on the AT&T network (like get issue with roaming or anything like that ) since it is now using the Rogers 2.2... Am I ok with this? Since I cant use the phone portion, i am not 100% sure that everything is working. It works great now with wifi and cant find any other issues so far.. so hoping I am good.

Also, with the new 3.04 i noticed it said the put the stock lock screen.. i kinda was liking the "swipe" unlock that my stock had that the original 3.0 had but wondered why they went back to the original bar one.. and is there a way to change that ?? or would it require me going to one of the older versions (which ever had it the .0 .1,2,or 3 etc)... any know? just a curious..nothing wrong with the stock, just like i said, kinda liked the swipe any direction one..

i am still researching around and looking up apps/themes, etc as I said I am new.. but one last question would be any suggested apps to add other than what comes with the stock cog 3.04?? i added a firewall type program ad my games etc.. but any other apps that peeps would consider "necessary" that cognition didn't load? i know this will all probably personal preference, but suggestions are always nice :)

Sorry for the long rant.. i just wanted to make sure that i was sent for when i re-deploy... Thanks all

Hi has any one got a app that makes a picture stay in full size as a wallpaper were it does not overlap on to difrent screens like what older sony erricsons do when you use the button set as wallpaper button and it used to show the whole picture on the same screen

I wanted to reply to this post but I couldn't because I dont have enough posts to comment in the development forum, so I appologize if this is in the wrong location.

Just wanted to say that I'm experiencing the same issue as richsale with Cognition. Friends were complaining that my voice was very staticy and unclear.

I flashed back to stock using Odin and everything sounds normal now. So it seems like this is not a hardware issue.

Has anyone faced similar issues with some roms?

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] born_fisherman:
Most likely its a modem issue - see the modem thread in dev section..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Try using a ROM that has JK4 modem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richhy:
Thanks

So I reflashed Congnition 3.04 and it's working now.. Before I was running it with GB's kernal, dont know what modem. That may have been the culprate.

I have Baseband I896UXJL1 right now
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drm5:
IIRC, Cognition is based on stock Captivate, while GB is a reoriented I9000 kernel. To run it, you'll need to replace the stock modem with an I9000 equivalent (JK4/JL2/JL3/KP1 all have ardent supporters), otherwise you'll run into voice problems. I believe it has to do with hardware vs. software noise cancellation on the two devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richhy:
So as long as my kernel and modem match I should be ok?

I'd like to flash a faster kernel on top of cognition. Perhaps SpeedMod or GB.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8steve8:
so i got a pre-paid sim in brasil with CLARO, signed up for their "unlimited web" option, which is actually limited to 300MB over 30 days, and soon enough I could use the android web browser freely. Strangely enough android market, gmaps, gmail, etc wouldn't recieve any data. The E icon for edge only lit the up arrow, the down arrow never would light unless i was using the android web browser...

I cannot understand how my nexus s can freely brows the web, but no other app can get data. I took my sim and put it in another phone, a nokia, and it worked fine with its map application, and facebook... I took the sim from that nokia phone, and i had the same data issues.

mind you, the phone worked fine on Tmobile USA , and works fine here on WiFi...

I talked to Claro, but they were as surprised and clueless as I was. They suggested a few things including creating a new google account here in brasil, it didn't help.

I got sick of trying to figure it out and just bought a pre-paid sim/plan from another provider (TIM) and it worked like a charm... everything worked.

But does anyone understand this situation?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8steve8:
I'm aware my nexus S doesn't have the 3g bands for claro, but it was on Edge, and regardless of bands, the web browser had a good data connection.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
most probably , your network had some ports( being used by google apps) blocked. and the one for the browser ( a different one -8080 i suppose) was still opened.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8steve8:
but the same sim on another phone, everything worked. and Claro sells galaxy s phones, and other android devices... I didn't test it with them, but they would have seen this issue before if the ports were blocked, right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimpatrio@gmail.com:
I have a Nexus One and my wife has the Nexus S. We also use Tim prepaid but don't have any data plan. The cell service is so bad in Rio I am not sure if we would be throwing money away with a data plan. How has it been for you? Wifi is available in the malls and a lot of restaurants as well as all along Copacabana Beach. So far we're making due.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamlucal:
probably the default APN for that provider needs a proxy server and provides no direct internet connection. In android only the browser uses the proxy address that you set up in the settings, for everything else it must be direct connection.

Nokia phones usually use the configured proxy for everything, so it works. That, or it was using another APN. In spain, for example, orange and most providers have 2 apns for internet, one gives you a public IP and full internet connection, the other needs a proxy, you get a private IP address and nothing works. Both are usually included in the same data plans, so you have to use the right one with Android.

by the way, an "APN" is the what the phone "dials" to get an internet connection, more or less. So depending on the APN you can get different kinds of service.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexcinci:
Good to know cus Im thinking in changing my operator to Claro. Now Im on Tim with no data plan...

Claro MG

Hi Folks,

I have a Nexus S and also a Data Plan from Claro.

Since I live in Minas Gerais ( Claro 3G here is 2100MHz ) it´s working fine.

Yesterday I went to São Paulo on a Business Trip and ( Claro 3G in SP is 850MHz ) my EDGE connection just worked fine.

I could send e-mails and even navigate a bit with Google Navigator.

It might help you an app called APN Brasil found on market. All my apn settings are based from this app.

So far so good.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8steve8:
I've had good experience with TIM in south zone, I get 3G just about anywhere outside of a building. It's not fast by USA standards, but its decent.. definately worth R$0.50 per day.

Does any one know how to unlock the Bell canada galaxy tablet?
[General Questions and Answers] a1jatt:
Yes.

By searching galaxy tablet section of xda developers forums.
[General Questions and Answers] Michael_robert:
Hi,

There are simple instructions for unlocking Bell Galaxy tablet:

- Root the Tab by using z4root, it works fine.

- Install Root Explorer.

- Backup /efs folder with Root Explorer.

- Open a copy of nv_data.bin in a hex editor and change 0x181469 to 00.

- Open /efs with root explorer and set to Mount R/W and your modified nv_data.bin in the Root Explorer clipboard.

- Rename or delete nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 and paste nv_data.bin (you have the originals in your /efs backup).

- Reboot and test with non Bell sim, it should just work, although you will probably need to enter your carrier's APN info to get data working. /Settings/Wireless and network/Mobile networks/Access Point Names, create and save new APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

I don't know how to make an xRecovery package yet, so unless someone else makes one (feel free), you'll need adb to install it:

[Epic 4G General] dwd3885:
Hi all. I have the Epic and I recently noticed that on my video recordings, often times there will be no audio recorded. Sometimes it will pick up a few seconds after video recording starts, other times it will be off altogether. No bluetooth or headphones plugged in and the audio recording box is checked.

Send the phone to Samsung and they said this:

NO TROUBLE FOUND

SW,PRL,OTSL RESET

Now I'm going to get it back tomorrow and I'm hoping it's fixed, but based on that text, I don't think it is. I called and they said it's fixed but it's just real irritating. I don't want to have to send the phone back to Samsung AGAIN and be without a phone for another week.

Anybody have any similar issues?

I am stuck...

Ive tried installing two different ROMs on my Fascinate and get the same error when doing both and i cant figure out why.

I have tried installing the DL09 and DJ05 both getting this error:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

Esignature verification failed

Installation aborted.

The options up top are:

reboot system now

apply sdcard:update.zip

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

I thought that there was a way to bypass the signature but am unsure of the steps.

I have also tried uninstalling CWM and pulled the battery and then tried running both the ROMs and still got the same error...

Any ideas?
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
Have you flashed both parts of CWM? You need to flash it via Odin as well as use ROM Manager. The part through ROM Manager downloads the update.zip file, so you could just download the update.zip from somewhere else if you didn't want to use ROM Manager.

After that, you should be set to go. Also, you should have posted in the General section.

are you applying the update to get in cwm recovery? then going to install zip from sd card?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rvictorg:
I assume what you want to do is flash a different ROM then re-install all your apps + data within that new ROM?? Titanium will easily allow you to do this, just click menu>batch>backup all user apps + system data. That will allow you to restore all your apps and data by running the batch restore after booting in the new ROM. Once you do that and verify your apps are working etc, I recommend backing up with xrecovery because that makes switching between ROMs a lot easier.

Hopefully that helps you out.
