[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pyperkub:
So, I was doing a little research, and it seemed that Wireless Tether did not work with 4g on the Epic (I could be wrong, but I had that impression). I've installed Mobile AP on my Epic, but I can't seem to find the encryption settings (if there are any aside from the password). Has anyone used both, and can you recommend one (and why)? I'm currently rooted on DI18. Essentially I'm looking for a little feature comparison and am hoping someone can help out (as one of the threads is over 500 pages).

Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGi760:
MobileAP supports infrastructure mode and works on di18, but not dk28.

Wireless Tether only does ad-hoc mode, but is compatible with dk28 as well as di18.

And that is the feature comparison that most people here are concerned with. If you're on di18, stick with MobileAP.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Well if your on dk28 they just came out with an infrastructure wireless tether. I'm using it now and it's just like mobile ap for di18.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsheahawk:
Which version are you using, muscle?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGi760:
Hmmm...I didn't know they had a new version out. TIL
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevesprivateaccount:
I've got the latest stable build of wireless tather and there isn't an option for Infrastructure Mode as far as I can tell. I would love to be able to run it as an AP, rather then ad-hoc.

@muscle how do you have it configured? What ROM are you running? (is it the one listed in your sig?)

Well the default charger is 0.15A right ?

I am using my Galaxy Tab's charger which is 2A and i get a full charge in like 1 hour.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikarma:
The charger that came with it is a .7A I am using a 1A though.

I think I might have found the problem. The app "craigsphone" installed a service that was using 79% cpu. I tried killing it and it would come back. So I uninstalled it, now just have to test out to see if it charges faster.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotorcycleKopp:
I bought my phone on it's release day, and up until about a week or two ago, it's taken a VERY long time to charge up -literally all night long. But for some reason, it seems to have started charging faster here recently. It now only takes about 3 hours to charge up, from being near completely dead. I don't understand why this has apparently happened, but I'm not complaining lol.

-of course, I'm speaking of charging via the included wall charger. USB charging still takes all night for me
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogol:
ikarma,

it depends on your charger.

I have 2 chargers:

- Original from HTC Desire

- Unknown brand

Both produce output 1000 mA (1A).

The time to charge from 4% to 100%:

- HTC charger = 4 hours

- Unknown brand = 6 hours

Here what I have done to this finding:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917075

So again, it depends on your charger!

Probably my unknown brand does not really produce 1000 mA.

Bottom line, there are different quality chargers out there! Choose wisely :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blaze10:
Wow, I'm dreaming of 1 hour...

Let me know where to buy such charger?

[Fascinate General] anshar666:

[Fascinate General] Kevin Gossett:
Since EA28 is basically the same as DL09, there is a slightly different procedure to get CWM running. First, flash the CWM tar with Odin found in this thread. Then, before letting the phone boot up you need to enter recovery. If you let the phone boot completely the stock kernel will overwrite CWM. So once in recovery, apply update.zip and flash a new kernel. There are many to choose from, as long as it isn't one of the stock ones (and matches your build, meaning any DL09 kernel should work).

After that's done you can boot like normal, and should have a working cwm

Even high-end phones take forever to be updated OTA just because the sales tell them to abandon the phone and focus on a better one that makes them a better profit. If you want updates and customizability over warranty (if applicable) then rooting is the way to go.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaullikesWINMO:
I tried searching but did not see this topic. I'm considering a Rogers Samsung Captivate and want to use it on FIDO. I was lucky to buy a Samsung Focus and pop in my Fido SIM card and the phone worked perfect (no unlocking needed). Does anyone know if I would have same such luck if I bought the Rogers Captivate ? Would like to hear from anyone else theat may have already done this and if there were any other issues ?

Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickm50:
Rogers owns fido. You can get the captivate from rogers and pop your fido sim in it and it will work without being unlocked.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaullikesWINMO:
Thanks Nick... that's what I thought too... But when I put an ad in Kijiji looking for a Rogers Focus, they seem to think the phone is locked?? I'm offering a certain price thinking I would have to pay for unlocking. Now I can make my best deal without having to think of the extra costs.

Any other issues encountered using this phone with FIDO ? I know I'll have to input the FIDO APN but that's simple. Is that about all I should run into ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickm50:
Just the bloatware will be different. But the custom roms on here will take care of that for you :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaullikesWINMO:
I'm scratching my head... I wonder why the people selling their phones thought they were locked. They could have made a quick sale. :-)

As for the custom ROM's I probably won't have much use for them unless it increases speed dramatically, make WIFI Hotspot Router better, or increases speaker volume (if needed). For the bloatware, does Rogers really put that much on there? My Focus seems to be pretty empty of any carrier junk. Do you recommend upgrading to 2.2 first then change ROM's or can I change ROM's right from 2.1 ?

Thanks in advance for advice/suggestions.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickm50:
The custom roms make a big difference all around.

No there isn't that much bloatware, but fido will have different stuff than rogers.

You probably won't miss anything there.

Update the phone to 2.2 through kies, then root it and change the rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaullikesWINMO:

For hardware video playback, mVideoplayer is great. Subtitle and automatic subtitle downloading, gesture support, loads of other features. Is free with ads, I think, but I have those blocked so I can't say for certain. For software video playback... Rockplayer, plays most files perfectly. Costs money though. There's also moboplayer which is free, it's in beta and kinda buggy though, but looks promising and plays most of my normally unsupported files well. Also it's not on the market.

As for music I like doubletwist, it's free and has a nice, clean GUI.

Are there any reputable installer apps that actually work? Can I somehow get the app I want to install somehow "signed" in order to install it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xumx:
Hello all!

I really need your help, searched through this and other sources for 2 days now without any solution.

I usually set <Input Panel> to a hardware button on my devices,

so i can open the software keyboard (sip) inside fullscreen applications.

On my diamond i did this setting:

Button 1 (Hold) -> Input Panel.

For example in java fullscreen applications, like TibiaME,

i usually open the input panel by holding the "green" button.

Using this method, i was able to type inside java apps/games/midlets.

This worked perfectly on my HTC Prophet and on some ROMs on Touch Diamond.

But since i flashed my preferred ROM (BsB 6.5.1G), the software keyboard directly

closes again, if i open it inside some fullscreen applications.

For example, if i run a fullscreen java game on jbed, or Resco Snake,

the keyboard shows up like expected if i long-press the call button,

but directly disappears again.

The java apps also resize if i try to open the software keyboard,

leaving a gap where the keyboard should be, showing the application in the background (usually my homescreen).

The keyboard shows up, but directly closes again.

I never expierenced that problem before.

In some other applications, that problem doesnt appear.

For example in teeter the keyboard shows up and

stays in position like it should.

If anyone out there has an idea or a small hint,

it would be very nice if you could post your thoughts here.

Also, if you could test that behaviour on your device and post your

result here could be very helpful.

Im really stuck at this point and flashing another ROM

is not an option for me at the moment.

I already asked for that inside the ROMs thread,

but since it appeared on another ROM too, its not only ROM-related.

ROM-Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=506533&page=687

Edit:

For java midlets, i now use the following workaround:

-JBlend for "windowed" midlets, windows-bars visible, any SIP working.

(TibiaME update from 1.7 to current version fails, maybe someone could proof that?)

-Esmertec Jbed 20090506.2.1 for midlets that don´t need a SIP, like Final Fantasy.

For me, only swype works in fullscreen-mode.

-JRebeiro_Esmertec_Jbed_-_Build_20071119.3.1 for online games that need SIP and fullscreen-mode.

Any SIP working in fullscreen mode. Build is outdated, but allows SIP to stay in foreground.

I´m still looking for volunteers to check this on different devices / ROMs.

Still no solution for windows native applications and latest JBed builds.

Thank you very much for any help!

Best regards,

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] lolufail:
hi!

I'm letting a cartuner build a 1-iso-drawer where I'll attach the original samsung car holder. attached are some drafts ;)

the slot is 2 units height, so I'm planning to put a bluetooth capable cd-radio into the top slot, hooked up to the steering wheel, and that special drawer (red on the pictures) in the bottom one. so the tablet is basically right infront of the radio, rendering it unusable, but I've got the steering wheel for that. controls should be forwarded via remote control profile of bluetooth. A2DP should have sufficient soundquality, if not, maybe AUX and bluetooth control profile can be combined. dunno.

good idea?

"verstellbar" means "adjustable", sry it's german.

okay, back to the actual question:

the 'tuner' wants to have the holder now to build the cover, or it'll look ****ty.

but I do want to wait for GT2, dualcore and everything.

will the form-factor be the same? will the old hold work for GT2?

thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
This is 2 really simple apps and it creates 2 shortcuts off the start menu to them.

One to Stop Sense and the other to Start Sense.

(It does not do anything with any other Today Item. Titanium is a Today Item. It will not stop or start Titanium.)

Purpose - Stop Sense does exactly that, which makes more memory available. I see 110 MB available when Sense is not running. I start Sense, and there is 75 MB available. Sense will continue to eat up more memory as you use different tabs. Stopping it and starting it will return alot of this memory.

I attached the source code to post #2.

{
try
{

if (RegKey != null)
{

Frozen on NRG Splash Screen

I'm sorry to report that I have a spare Titlt 2 that I hard resetted this afternoon to make default Home screen captures for your app, running Energy.RHODIUM.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Feb.01 w/o any mods nor apps except Whip2Snap to make screen captures and w/o SIM.

I installed StartStopSense_JVH3_v1001.CAB while I was in Titanium mode (Sense stopped) & when I clicked on Start Sense, nothing was happening. I restarted the phone for good measure, same results. I then started Sense via Start > Settings > Home > Items and then tried Stop Sense. The phone froze on the splash screen before normally Starting Sense text appears. I soft resetted twice and both times I got: Mainsplash > animation > NRG/HTC Quietly Brilliant > No SIM warning & black dialer (emergency calls only) & after waiting a while, pressing End brings me to the same NRG splash (see screen capture below), never getting to Home. The End hardware button does not bring up Home.

Only Start works but Start > Home does not work. Start > Settings > Remove program StartStopSense_JVH3_v1001.CAB worked but still no Home!

Soft reset: still no Home, stuck on NRG's splash screen and End hardware button does not bring up Home. Only solution I could think of is to hard reset. :eek:

If you want to try StartStopSense_JVH3_v1001.CAB, I strongly suggest that you backup your settings & data first.

Edit: Start > Whip2Snap worked so I took this screen capture before hard resetting:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Hard reset was not necessary / source code and full project is in post #2

The app only stops sense and starts sense.

It does not stop Titanium (Windows Default) and it does not start Titanium.

I have stopped and started sense several times with it.

You realy didn't need to hard reset. I published the source code in post #2.

You can see that all running it does is modify 1 registry entry. Then sends a message using PostMessage so that windows will be notified of the change.

If you would have just used Start->Settings->Today->Items and selected the option that you wanted, you would have been able to correct anything without a hard reset.

Or to just have run Start Sense.

Titanium (Windows Default) is a today plugin. The app does not toggle between Titanium and Sense, it only stops sense and starts sense.

The image you posted is almost exactly what I see when I stop sense.

Then I use the Start Sense app to start sense, and Sense Starts.

Start Sense is not designed to stop any other today items, such as Windows Default, before starting sense.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Idea for new version

Make it more general

New version should be renamed to Stop Today Items / Start Today Items / Start Sense / Start Titanium

Stop Today Items (Biggest Memory Savor)

Stop all today items, such as Sense or Titanium or any others, recording which ones it stopped.

Start Today Items

Stop any running today items.

Start all today items that Stop Today Items had stopped.

Start Sense

Stop all today items. Start Sense.

start Titanium (Saves memory, but it is a today item, so it does consume some.)

Stop all today items. Start Titanium (Windows Default).

I'll need some more icons. Please post pngs.
