[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neilbantoc:
Hi there. First of all, i know that this is related to an Accessory, but i posted it here because i want to confirm if my problem was ROM related or not..

Here's the thing, the SE MW600 is no doubt a good piece of music accessory.. But when i used my SGS with it running Darky's V8.1, the sound is horrbile. There's a strang metallic sound to it, and high pitched sounds like cymbals are distorted..

Before you go ahead an flame me, I've done some initial tests.

1. I tested it first with a SE k800, my old phone because i wanted to know if the bluetooth headset itself had bad quality music over bluetooth.. Surprisingly, MW600 has a 'show music track name' that does not work with my SGS.. Apparently it only works with java-based phones.. Everything works, all the music controls, the volume, etc. And music quality is comparable to using a wired headset.. So the headset in itself having a very bad sound quality is out of the question..

2. Next, i tested it with a 2nd get Apple Ipod Touch because i wanted to know if the bluetooth headset was only compatible with SE products.. Sound quality - perfect.. Music controls - not working, except play/pause.. Track names do not show.. So this means that the headset is not closed to SE products and is in fact compatible (and has great music quality) with an apple product..

3. Lastly, i tested it with an SE x10 mini pro, thinking that maybe the problem's with android.. It was similar to the ipod touch experience: Sound quality - perfect, ALL Music controls work, tracks still not showing (because it's not a java based-phone).. So this means that the problem is with the SGS itself, not android..

So my question is, for the (very few) people who own an MW600 and an SGS, Do you experience this horrible sound quality as well?

IF YES: are you on a custom rom? what roms have you tried? have you tried reverting to stock rom and comparing the difference?

IF NO: what rom are you using? are you on a stock rom?

If some people report that the sound quality is horrible for ALL ROMS, then it is a problem of SGS itself.. But if some people report excellent quality on a different rom, then the problem is rom-specific..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] max_82:
I face the same problem but only when I use it for phone call. For listening the music the sound quality is good. Does anyone can give solution?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neilbantoc:
Woah a response.. Thank you for that.. I was kinda loosing hope in this thread..

Anyway, I have found reports that the sound quality for some galaxy s users is actually fine..

What rom are you using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toddmworth:
Was always fine for me on Darky's 9.x and now also fine on CM7.

Try a stock ROM...?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] braz+:
I've got the same problem Max_82 has.

Call quality si very bad , while music quality is ok... (strange...)

I'm running f1 s2 v6

Not sure if this is an issue for us, but just in case - I thought I'd share this...

Via Engadget:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/29/android-2-3-security-bug-shows-microsd-access-vulnerability/

So I am assuming that I should stop using stock browser for now, and switch to something like the Dolphin browser? And if so, which is better full or mini? Sorry, new to all this, so your suggestions/and or input are greatly appreciated. :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Nexus S doesnt have a MicroSD unless this also includes the internal "sdcard" space.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diversificationied:
It does include sdcard space. The issue is with being able to access storage, not specifically sd cards.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Right, to the OS, doesn't matter whether it's internal or external, it's whatever device is mounted as /sdcard...

lol Slowz3r! You're too funny, I can always count on you for a good laugh or 2 - thx! :) On a side note; hopefully this gets fixed when they roll out the fix for the re-booting issue.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willverduzco:
Dolphin would not keep you safe. It, along with almost every other replacement browser, still uses the stock browser's rendering (Webkit) and javascript (V8) engines, and thus would still be vulnerable. There are two notable exceptions, though: Opera Mobile and Firefox Mobile. A quick look at the download size of all other browsers makes it clear that they are basically shells/wrappers on the stock browser's engines with the sole purpose of adding functionality to the native browser. There's no way to cram an entire browser (housing more features than the stock browser), complete with javascript and rendering engines in a megabyte.

Opera Mobile uses the Presto and Carakan engines for Rendering and Javascript, respectively. Similarly, Firefox Mobile uses Gecko and Spidermonkey. Because of the different engines used, these two would not be subject to the same set of vulnerabilities.

I use Opera Mobile (not mini, which is quite limited for me) for almost everything. It has much better panning, zooming, and rendering performance than anything else available.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] expl0de:
Hi, modiffying software and testing different mod's i a plaeure, but this leaves some files here and there and in the future this may become a problem.

In the root folder of the phone I see folders like: acct, cache, config, d, data, dev, vendor...and also some files: default.prop, init, init.goldfish.rc... Are these files and folders permament or there is way to format everything and make clear install after that?

For example I had to add label to my ext partition to be able to use app2sd on CM7, so I changed something in "vendor" folder(following instructions offcourse). But now If I want to cange the rom and use another one I wont need tis label or it can even cause some problems.

What exactly dissapear when whiping everything from recovery and installing new rom and what stays?

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_norris:
Hey.

Boot into recovery. Do a full wipe, and you can format yr SD card.

That'll completely wipe everything.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
If you do a full wipe and flash a new rom only the sd is not affected. Some roms might not format the system partition but you can do that yourself, even tho i don't think it really matters.

If you wipe data/factory rest, cache and dalvik cache before flashing everything should be gone.

Hi

When i get a message from ping or whatsapp or even sms message through handcent. the green LED notifier doesnt flash on the top.

Instead i have to first wake the screen up and then turn it off then the LED blinks green.

Is there anyway to fix this? i have a work around with handcent atm using the popup and setting a screen sleep time of 10s. but when i receive a message from ping or whatsapp, i would only hear it for the first time and after that nothing until i turn the screen on.

Thanks
[Droid X General] iRMac:
I love all of your work but am wondering how to create a custom ROM? I have never created a ROM for any device before but am very technologically savvy and know a bit of java. Is their a ROM kitchen or a good set of instructions somewhere? Any help at all on how to start would be greatly appreciated (:

Thanks,

[HD2 General] cylent:
very weird issue or i am just having hallucination:

after reading the news today about the HTC HD2 having the ability to install Android onto NAND i quickly went out to buy one. i was hoping it'd be cheap but it wasnt.

i found a store which had 3 units. all of which he promised were new but they arent so i got it and came home to install android on it ... anywho i ran into some issues but now all is good. android is on it.

my issues that i am concerned about and iam hoping i dont run into (like my last hd2 which wouldnt charge no matter what so i sold it)...

the issue right that i ran into before having android on the unit i would plug it in the charger and the light would turn "orange" for charging. when i unplug it it would just stick red... it was very weird.

now that i installed android on it i am noticing its turning off (the charging led) when unplugged however even though its on the charge the charging icon is just a solid "green battery" without the lightning icon in it.

not to dwell cause i am having trouble trying to figure this out... how do i diagnose my battery and charging mechanism on this device? shall i revert to winmo just for a test?

Thanks!

[HD2 General] tictac0566:
I would recommend to ask this question in the HD2 Android forum - and if the error you experience is only with a specific build/kernel, in that specific thread.
[HD2 General] Ariel_HD2:
try to charge your phone via usb... if it works good your ac adapter is the problem...
[HD2 General] Arcandel:
Try to take off battery for 10-15 minutes and then put it back. May be it will help you.

Yea try taking out the battery and waiting before reinserting

currently, i installed Diligaf's new 5.2 rom.

and i left it charing over night from 100% to 0% in the morning!!!

why! is this!

i'm freaking out D:

please help
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
1. Was there any process in the background that consumed battery?

2. Charge it to full, and see if u can repeat it again.

3. 5.2 version, I think, has the regular gallery 3d. Pls install the updated version using 'SGS Tools'.

I've used all versions of this ROM since 2.5 and am on 5.3 now. Never experienced this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parshantx:
well, is there ANY possible way to conserve battery life, cause battery life RUNS fasttt!

D:

i heard u have to flash some kernel.. ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Try the ROM in my signature. Even with the bundled kernel, its pretty slick and conservative on battery. And if u want to squeeze a little more, u can try replacing the kernel with the one in my signature.

[Captivate Accessories] ChaoticKinesis:
I won't comment on the pins but if you're replacing the stock earphones for better sound quality, these will not give it. I have not listened to these but I have to a higher-end model of JBuds and they sound worse than stock.
[Captivate Accessories] 88EVGAFTW:
The JVC Air Cushions on Amazon for 16-20$ are amazing, especially with PowerAmp app and listening to Techno/Electronic/House music, as well as everything else. I bought a 75$ pair of NuForce 700X IEMs and they sounded the same as my 20$ JVC Air Cushions.

Compatibility question

I have been searching far and wide for compatible in-ear headphones with a mic.

Looking at the pinout differences between the iphone and most android phones, I was very disappointed in what is available. The GND and MIC signals are reversed for many popular android phones compared to the iphone headset pinout. However, the other day, I plugged my friend's iphone headset into my captivate... AND IT WORKED!! I was shocked! I tried my headset in her iphone and that also worked.

Does this mean that iphone headsets work with the captivate? I would just love it if the headset and mic worked. Buttons would be nice, but you can't have everything.

Does anyone have experience with the Klipsch S4i or the Ultimate Ears 500vi with their captivates?
[Captivate Accessories] ChaoticKinesis:
I have experience with the Ultimate Ears TripleFi 5vi on the Captivate and it works, so I'd imagine that extends to all iPhone compatible headsets. I checked out the 500vi and those use diaphragm rather than balanced armature drivers, even though they are not that different in price. I really suggest going for the pair with the better drivers, as there will be a drastic difference in sound quality.
[Captivate Accessories] tkienzle:
If anyone cares...

Ok this is what i found in the I9000 forum hope it works for what i want...

Ebay link paid $13 shipped from UK...

This is what i want from it Vol up down button and mic...
[Captivate Accessories] browwiw:
These earbuds...are the cord lengths of equal length or is one cord shorter than the other? I hate that around the back of the neck crap. I hate how manufactures and retailers never explicitly tell you.

THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH THE CAPPY!!! :eek:

Lol now that i got that out of the way waiting for the other adapter for my phone... :cool:

The Etymotic HF2 work great with the Captivate and the quality is great.

By the way, has anybody tried the HF3? They don't work with some Android phones with I haven't found anything about the Captivate.

Play/pause music with in-line mic control button

Lots of headphone/mic threads, so wanted to bump one with recent activity to ask a question.

I recently upgraded to GB, was listening to music with a seat of headphones with an in-line mic. I paused the song using the control button on the mic, had a conversation, and when I clicked the mic button again...nothing. The button would only begin playing the paused song if the screen was on. I tried several different lock screens, music players, widgets etc. No matter what, I experienced this functionality:

1.	Music is playing

2.	Screen times out after X minutes, or I turn if off with a click of the power button

3.	1 click from the in-line mic button will pause the music

4.	If I click again within ~5 seconds, the music will begin to play again

5.	If I wait 5-10+ seconds before clicking, the music will not start again with a single click until after I turn the screen back on again.

I’m almost 99% sure that this wasn’t the case on my old Froyo-based ROM, so I wanted to check in to see if this is just standard for everyone.

Thanks!
[Fascinate General] Jbuch84:
Lol, out of total boredom... I mean TOTAL boredom, I tested the fluctuation in dBm of signal strength according to how the phone was held.

After about an hour of solid testing (boredom) I noticed there's a pattern.

Hands free : -81 / -83 dBm

Cradling bottom left : -88 / -90 dBm

Cradling bottom right : -96 dBm

Either side at top were about the same as bottom right side.

Seems on my phone in my location I get less reception holding it from the bottom right corner. Not enough to make much difference by hey, it was something to kill an hour doing :-) And before you say "reading this was a waste" you can first say thank you for helping you "fill" that ten minute void!

Try it yourself, let me know if your phone reacts differently..
[Fascinate General] Naris:
Nice experiment. I tried the same with my Fascinate but it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. It fluctuates during the various grips between -80 and -87 dbm.

Are you trying to squeeze it while you cradle it?
[Fascinate General] Jbuch84:
It was more like a cuddle than a cradle ;-) j/k but in all seriousness it was just regular grips I use when using my phone
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_norris:
Hi guys,

Please please please, don't say prevention is better than a cure. I worked that one out myself :)

My phone slipped out my pocket and landed face down. Now there is a scratch that goes straight across the screen.

All I'd like to know is if any of you guys have any suggestions on either getting rid of it, or at least making it fade a bit.

I've Google like no tomorrow. I've come across suggestions like using:

* idrops

* applesauce (its like idrops)

* Displex (mixed opinions about that product)

* toothpaste (its lightly abrasive)

And many more.

I'm awaiting my Martin fields screen protector to arrive. I think my only hope is covering it.

Any suggestions or advice based on experience?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
It depends on how bad your scratch is. I've used Displex for my minor (few mm) scratches, and with success. Had to polish it for a longer time than said, but they were gone & display was like new after.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_norris:
Really?

I read so many conflicting reviews on Displex.

Some saying it works perfectly. Others saying it makes a smudge on the screen, others saying it doesn't work at all!

I almost ordered one of the cheap ones off ebay.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
I got an official one and if you do as stated in the tutorial and/or manual, nothing goes wrong.

At least for me it worked.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_norris:
Sweet,

Where did u buy it if u don't mind me asking?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
From a resseller in Slovakia. just typed in google, and choosed one.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
I am in the process of ordering a new vibrant. I have tried 2 TW roms which are great but my GPS is still not working. I've tried every fix suggested other then opening the phone up. My question is once I get the new phone and root it with the included sd card can I then insert my old sd card with Titanium backup on it and get everything back from there? Any advice would be appreciated. And a big thanks to Team Whiskey and all of the developers helping to make this phone great!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monk4Life:
On the new sd card and phone you need to install Titanium backup, then transfer everything from titanium backup on your old sd card to the new titanium backup folder location. You will then beable able to run the restore and get everything back.

So when i had my stock htc keyboard befote i rooted i loved it. It knew what i meant to type, made the correct suggestions and the most accurate autocorrects. Then i flashed the gb keyboard when i was using warm. It was a big step down in terms of prediction and auto correct but still worked. However now that i am actually on a gb rom, evokings gb v8 (evervolv), everything has just stopped working and its driving me NUTS. it doesnt auto correct, doesnt predict and fimish my words for me, doesnt input a period after two spaces. Let me give you some examples. If i accisentally type looj, why the hell wouldnt it turm that into look? Note the above errors in that sentence that i didnt even mean to type that it shpuld have easily corrwcted. Before when i typed prob, it would turn that into probably as soon as i hit the space bar. Also it would do punctuation ofr me, like turning doeant into doesn't. I have double checked all my keyboard settings. Its taking me like 3 times longer now to type a mesaage because i have to go back and correct all the minor errors. What changed and why doeant the keyboard work how it should? Somebody please help me out

[Fascinate General] cstrife999:
Okay before I continue with my question I just need to point out the following. My phone is fixed, and for the most part through trial and error to this point I know what I am doing. For some reason with both superclean and blackhole dl09 roms I miss phone calls. It may also be a kernal. I was using a stupid fast kernal for dl09/dj05. My girlfriend tried to call several times and it never came through on my side though I could get some texts. Is this a problem I cause or something more wide spread? I really can't use a rom or kernal that makes it so that I can't get calls. Funny thing though some calls went through to my cell and others wouldn't. I had her call me as a test from a few feet away while my screen was off. My screen turned on like something was going to happen, but nothing. I'm running OTA dl09 if it matters. Right now everything is fine after I ODINed.
[Fascinate General] RacerXFD:
Did you read the sticky? I think not...
[Fascinate General] soba49:
This may surprise you, but I have never noted any ROM here affecting call performance in any way, neither for myself nor for others in my brief tenure here. Your assertion that texts come through at all implies that your kernel matches your baseband. The only thing I can suggest is a timely *228 in the future, but we may never know what your actual issue was.

From what I read you have to port over your Dj05 radio/modem over to your Dl09 rooted phone I had the same issues myself. My only problem is I use a MAC and we all know Odin does not work w/ Mac and I have no luck w/ Heimdal So I cant use any Roms at this point. I could be wrong and if I am please let me know. I would like to use the Superclean Rom.
