[Captivate General] Rrryan2:
Seriously. What's not unhelpful is out of date.

IT is getting increasingly galling at this point. I love how when you write to Samsung and ask, they say they can't provide an answer because it would lead to speculation and inaccurate information. But of course it's exactly yhe opposite that is actually true...

There is zero point to speculating/complaining about the lack of an official Froyo update. I'm not saying I don't sympathize, just that it's non-productive.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Samsung won't speculate because AT&T is sitting on this... here is more proof:

http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-...ncharset=UTF-8&solutionId=KB115196&isSrch=Yes

The title says it all "Send, Receive, or Delete a Picture, Audio or Video Message (MMS) with the Samsung Captivate (i897) with Android 2.2"

And Samsung's tweets to me confirm it... when pressed - they specifically said 2.2 had not been released to "Captivate Users".

I have always maintained that AT&T is sitting on the release. Why, I am not sure, but the fact that numerous support pages reference 2.2 indicates that they geared up to push it out a while ago - that means stable builds have been available or they would not have made support pages that have very specific screen shots.

Do not attempt this if you are not content with 'messing' with your device!

I have attached a zip file containing all the files required, including a bmp<>rsb converter.

Extract all files to C:\Bootsplash

Firstly the source image

The image needs to be 480x640 even though most Execs are opened in landscape format. The orientation needs to be left hand side of image at top, right hand side of image to bottom. (In essence, the landscape image is rotated 90 degrees clockwise).

This image needs to be saved as a 24bit bitmap.

Converting the source image to rsb

Use rsbbmp.exe in the zip (windows program) and check the readme for instructions but its really simple - if you add a bmp file it converts to rsb with same file name and vice versa.

You should now have your new splash picture .rsb and this should be in the Bootsplash directory for the change to work.

Exec Preparation

In the zip file is a cab file - EnableRapi.cab - this needs to be transfered to the Exec and run locally on the Exec. Once installed - that's it - you shouldn't need to worry about it again.

Flashing the Boot Splash Image

The zip file contains the following files that all need to be in the C:\Bootsplash directory...

bdsplash.rsb - this is Buzz's splash screen and will be installed if yours can't be found!

itsutils.dll

pdocread.exe

pdocwrite.exe

preboot.exe

rsb_header.bin

UNI_splash.bat - this is the batch file to run BUT NOT YET!

Firstly, in a text editor, edit the UNI_splash.bat file and insert the name of your rsb picture on line 6 or so - where I have put . Save the bat file.

Connect your Exec to the PC via ActiveSync. Wait for it to complete synchronisation

Run UNI_splash.bat and follow the instructions in the command box displayed.

If you do not extract all files to c:\bootsplash you will need to amend the UNI_splash.bat file accordingly

And that's it :wink:

The Exec does a soft reset as part of the process - and you should see your new screen in all its glory!

[Vibrant General] Danielpc:
My phone is rooted and I utilize Super Manager to access root files. I use multiple Bluetooth receivers of the same model when listening to music at home and at work, which can create difficulty trying to select the correct one on the phone when they all have the exact same name in the Bluetooth pairing section. I do not see a way to change the name in the paired devices section to differentiate, but is it possible to change a name accessing a root system file? Please help and I an unable to find anything about this in my research.
[Vibrant General] Webstertech:
I have the same problem. Have you figured out how tho change the name?
[Vibrant General] Danielpc:
No, I have not. However, One of them I do not use anymore so it is no longer an issue.
[Vibrant General] Raistline:
You should be able to change the BT broadcast name on the device it's self through it BT Radio settings.

As for in android, you should be able to long click on the device to re-name, depending on OS version, ROM and similar factors. Each ROM and OS version is a bit different for this.
[HTC Excalibur] AbuMahdi:
Dear friends,

I am a new on this precious forum I would like to ask a question, despite a negative answer from a mobile shop seller, if there is a possibility to install windows 7 for HTC S 620.

According to this seller my phone can not endure the OS because of the processor.

I ado apologize in advance if there was a similar question and it was already answered.

P.S. I love my phone and I do not like touch screen phones so this is a chance to prolong my love for my phone and to be in touch with the newest mobile technologies.

P.S. 2 If by any case I can't install Windows 7 to my mobile is there a chance to install the new 2010 Office? If yes can you guide me to the link.
[HTC Excalibur] AbuMahdi:
WiFi HTC S620

Another important question for me!

Does my HTC S 620 has a WiFi and can I use it as every WiFi as on other phones. Even if I have in the panel WiFi icon when I click on it the Command Manager appears and there is no way independently to activate the WiFi. Does this means that the phone is only used as a modem and does not have independent WiFi.

I red that there are sticky post can you somehow show me where are they!?

Thank you again.

Please post in this thread if you have a SD card that has not worked for you with Nookie Froyo. Please post the brand, capacity, class, and version of Froyo you are using. I will keep an updated list in this post:

Known Good

16GB Class 4 Patriot - 5.9, 6.6, 6.7

8GB Class 6 Lexar - 6.6, 6.7

8GB Class 6 Wintec - 5.9 (untested 6.6 and 6.7)

4GB Class 2 MicroCenter brand - 5.9, 6.6, 6.7

4GB Class 6 Transcend - 5.9, 6.6, 6.7

4GB Class 6 Adata - 5.9 (untested 6.6 and 6.7)

2GB Class 4 Sandisk - 6.6, 6.7

Known Bad:

16GB Class 6 RiData - hangs on Android boot screen with 5.9, with 6.6 and 6.7 it boots but gets endless loops of force closes. Tried multiple cards, all brand new.

16GB Class 10 Patriot - same symptoms as above

16GB Class 10 Wintec - same symptoms as above

16GB Class 6 Transcend - same symptoms as above

16GB Class 10 Adata - same symptoms as above

Questionable:

16GB Class 4 Sandisk
[Nook Color General] ColoradoPhoney:
Known good:

Lexar 8GB class 6 - 6.6, 6.7

Sandisk 2GB Class 4 - 6.6, 6.7

no experience with any problematic MiscroSD's yet...
[Nook Color General] MXIIA:
Sandisk 16GB class 4, I assume same problem as all other 16 GB cards.
[Nook Color General] panamamike:
Are you saying this doesn't work? It's working fine for me. Make sure you don't have a counterfeit. Apparently if the black serial numbers are not printed card it's a fake.

I can add that I didn't have any luck with the Patriot or Wintec 16GB cards.

8GB Lexar C6 does work.

My theory is the card needs to have good random write performance 512k and 4k. If 512K is 2Mbps or better seems to work. This was tested using crystaldisk mark using a USB 2.0 adapter.

Also note, performance of a particular card isn't exactly easy to determine. If I use different devices to adapt a card to the PC I get different speed results. For example on the same card, I got .5 Mbps 512k random speed using a Dell E6410 adapter, but 1Mbps using a usb microsd adapter.

I have a class 10 16g ADATA. I ran into the endless loop fc problem for 0.6.7. I formatted the card from nook stock rom then ease it from my MacBook pro by using disk utility. The endless loop fc problem went away afterward. I am still having problem with the honeycomb v4. It gave me a "enter password to decrypt the storage" screen after it boots up. No idea why it is that. Kinda frustrated ....
[Nook Color General] ColoradoPhoney:
Speaking of counterfeit SD cards, this isa HUGE problem on ebay. Always purchase from a trusted source.

If you suspect issues with your card, H2TESTW is considered one of the better testing and benchmarking tools. Very small, very simple:

[Nook Color General] Solandri:
Sorry to resurrect a month-long post, but I wanted to add my experience since I'm seeing some really unusual behavior.

16 GB Class 10 Patriot w/ Nookie Froyo development 0.6.8 - worked

16 GB Class 10 Patriot w/ Nookie Honeycomb v04 - booted but always asked for password

Here's where it gets weird:

16 GB Class 2 Samsung OEM (came with my phone) w/ Nookie Honeycomb v04

The first boot immediately after burning the img to the card will work. I boot into Honeycomb, I can play with all the features and apps, change settings, etc. It seems to work fine.

If I shut down and boot it again, it will hang at the Android boot screen. The only way I can get it to work again is to re-burn the img to the card again.

BTW, the CrystalDiskMark scores to the best of my recollection:

16 GB Class 10 Patriot

seq: 19 MB/s read, 15 MB/s write

512k: ~8 MB/s read, 0.7 MB/s write

4k: ~3 MB/s read, 0.006 MB/s write

16 GB "Class 2" Samsung

seq: 15 MB/s read, 11 MB/s write

512k: ~5 MB/s read, 0.6 MB/s write

4k: ~2 MB/s read, 0.012 MB/s write

Apparently Samsung is very conservative in the class rating they give their memory.
[Nook Color General] holgalee:
I've got a 16GB Sandisk microSDHC card with adaptor. It says '4' on the card's sticker, so I'm assuming it's a class 4. Does this mean my card won't work?

Also, I'm using it in my Samsung Galaxy right now. Can I just transfer the files to my PC and format the card, before using it for rooting the NC? :p

I've also tried the class 10 WinTec 16GB uSD. I can get Nookie FroYo to boot but I'm unable to installl apps from the market and most of the preloaded apps will hang at launch. I've tried multiple downloads from multiple sources and they've had the same results. The sdcard works fine with my laptop and camera, fwiw.
[Nook Color General] Talesin_BatBat:
(Note: All testing done with CM7-RC4)

Patriot 4GB Class 10 - Installs and will boot, but MASSIVE lag/stuttering, erratic behaviour, slow download speeds from Market (2-4KB/s, bursting to 200KB/s now and then). Definitely seems like a problem with class 10 cards.

SanDisk 8GB Class 4 - Works perfectly; hard to tell it's running from MicroSD and not internal memory aside from a slightly slower boot (maybe 15 seconds more).

Dane-Elec 4GB Class 4 - Works just as well as the SanDisk from limited testing. Took a little longer to cache everything up after the first boot, but worked with minimal initial hesitation after the next few boots.

Hello,

After some day of using I've noticed that some areas of the glass seemed to get dirty more than other and always with the same shapes.

If you clean the glass they almost disappear, to return back when you touch the screen.

Someone sayd that can be a problem of the oilophobic protection that doesn't work fine in all the glass, does anyone know anything about? :)

Might be the anti-fingerprint coating rubbing off. I've read of that happening to people.
[Nexus S General] cheetah2k:
The oleophobic coating does wear off - some sooner than others.. Same issues as the iphone 3GS and 4

Best idea is just to clean it, get a screen protector, and be done with it

[Nexus S General] jroid:
That happened to mines too, I was wondering what the hell it might be. I had my spots in all four corners of the display.
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
The general consensus, to my knowledge, is just that the oleophobic coating used to help prevent finger oils from smudging the screen is just plain ****ty and has a tendancy to wear off rather quickly.
[Nexus S General] leyvatron:
that sucks. screen protector time.
[Nexus S General] JamesTrab:
Maybe you're right, although it's not the way i planned to solve it. :\

Thank you all, anyway. :D
[Nexus S General] Luxferro:
mines messed up to. I just try not to think about it.

One tip, don't apply any pressure when wiping your phone... it will mess up the coating easily, and then that spot will always show up when you get finger oils on it.

On the Fission Rom Manager download page, there is an add-on that installs the Droid X multitouch keyboard, but skinned to look like the stock android keyboard.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to install this add-on, but with the stock Droid X multitouch keyboard theme, not the android one.

I've tried editing the files myself using the stock theme files from the original app, but the file either wont install at all or the letters on the keyboard come out extremely small.

Here is a link to a few apps that have been ported to the Viewsonic tablet: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=928832

I have Customized Nookie Froyo 0.6.6 on my eMMC (find it in Dev forum) and I installed Quickoffice and that looked spectacular. It also seems pretty stable.

I am about to load Calculator (the Froyo one is really meant for phones...), Keyboard (the Gingerbread keyboard for Froyo in this ROM isn't working either), and Sniffer (just for the tablet interface).

I wouldn't bother with Canvas (KidPix and apparently can't save EDITED images), E-mail (doesn't seem stable enough and too much work -- flashing required), Calendar (too glitzy to be actually functional), or browser (I use Dolphin and Opera anyway).

I am just informing those that have a custom ROM, that these ports are available and should work for the Nook Color (Viewsonic tablet is also 2.2 -- Notion is 2.3)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] yl328:
Just loaded up Keyboard, Calculator, and Sniffer. Here are my thoughts

Keyboard -- shows up in Input Method after turning it on in Settings. Looks good, I am excited to try it out.

Calculator -- looks great and does not mess up Calculator from Froyo (does not overwrite). When rotated horizontal, Softkeys On-screen display (OSD) thinks the edge is not that far so it's in the middle and I can't shift it out

Sniffer -- looks and works great. It thinks the internal memory is the SD card and well, no SD card exists. There isn't any benefit of using this over Astro except that it's got a horizontal tablet interface.

I love and swear by my 1750. You will get a lot of people in here saying it is crap, but I assure you it is not. If you want a battery to last the full day and not increase the size of your phone the 1750 is for you. I have had no issues with it getting to hot. Just a word for the wise....

When you get it follow the instructions. Let it charge for several hours after full charge. Im talking twelve hours or so if you can spare. You wont regret it.

It's nice to have but I've become so used to plugging up that I have a way/somewhere to charge almost everywhere I go anymore. It does allow me the luxury of being able to not plug up for longer.

When I was looking for a replacement battery and searching the forums many different people claimed it didn't work as advertised. That it did not last any longer than the stock battery.
