[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sc0rpp:
Hi everyone! I am SGS owner and i want to uprgarde my gps quality, so i was wondering to buy a bluetooth GPS receiver, but i don't know which one to choose? It will be good if someone can recommend me something. Most importnat for me is quality and also i don't want to buy it for 70£ or more (good prize for me is under 20£).

I also decided to buy car holder and there is same problem, i don't know which one to choose. If someone could recommend me something then please also add ebay or amazone link.

And the last question :). On thursday i visit Berlin and if someone knows a good mobile/electronics store when i can buy accessories (screen protectors, silicon case etc.) for my SGS, then please tell me :).
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
*yawn*

Don't bother. Android doesn't support bluetooth GPS. The apps won't be able to use it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Mothatt:
Wrong, android does support bluetooth GPS
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sc0rpp:
Yeah, i know that it supports but which on to choose?
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] snapper.fishes:
I guess things changed since I last read up about it.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9057

Pretty sure it wasn't possible before. Technology these days..... :D

One person in the above link posted a photo of the bluetooth gps unit he's currently using, and I managed to locate it on Ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GLOBALSAT-BT-...CIEVER-G-SAT-NEW-/270627487851#ht_1402wt_1139

Worth taking a look at. And it's not too expensive. Now that I know bluetooth GPS does work on Android, I am quite interested in getting my hands on one as well. The Galaxy S GPS does work, but it's definitely not perfect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] sc0rpp:
Ok! I think i buy it.

Can someone explain me what's the difference between the first time interval and the second one?

In Spanish are "Horario regular" and the second one is "Horario de copia".

The first times are between 30 and hours... The second one is in minutes: 1, 2...

The thing is: I cannot make it automatically backup my data.

I have to do it manually.

Ideas?

Thanks!

So i just replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Fascinate. I updated to 2.1 update 1.

I went through the forums looking how to root my phone. I ended up tring the one touch rooting method using the fascinate root v02 and it did not work. (confirment this by going into termanl and typed su to see if i got a # rather than a $.....Nada

Is it possible to root the 2.1 update1? If so can someone point me to a guide?

Ok so i just downloaded this app the other day and really like it....

http://www.appbrain.com/app/easy-answer-button-free/org.nsd.easyanswer

the only thing i dont like about it is the look of the buttons. so i went into data/app and copied out the app to my computer. opened it up, looked at the drawable folder and found the images i wanted to replace. there were only 4.

so i found out their size (400x120) and made 4 new images that i wanted to use, used Astro to put them back into the app, deleted the original app in data/app, pushed the app to system/app, and changed permissions, then rebooted.

now i have done the widgetlocker mods using this method and had success. however, widgetlocker is a .apk, where as this app is a .zip file. so i figured, OK, lets try it in the data/app since that other way didn't work...still a no go.

just wondering how to modify these .zip apps, and get them to work.

any help is greatly appreciated.

GingerBlue and GingerRed would be sweet. You'd think it'd be easy enough being that is for the vibrant and amosher13 already has the Gingerbread theme rockin'...i do know that a545nova has some themes that work, but they aren't quite complete. You can find them here. The Gingerbread Hell theme is close to what you're looking for. There are a few problems with it though. The "3G" and arrows are still green for some reason and so is the battery charged indicator that pops up in the left corner of your notification bar. It also is missing a lot of the red themed icons. Give it a try though, it is close to the GingerRed theme you're looking for...

Sounds absolutely NoobLIKE , but I'd like to understand :

Does the Speed of ROM depends on Kernel ?

If so , which Kernel is fastest one ? (now im using Coutts , and IM pretty satisfied)

Thankss :P
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crapula512:
yes, a different kernel can affect performance and it will also affect your maximum overclock, process scheduler (bfs or cfs), etc.

coutts kernel is a g00d option.

Whats the best price anyone has found the 101 at? I found it for $298 at some Mac mail order company but they were out of stock. I wanted to get my woman on for Valentines Day but I really didnt want to pay over $300 for it.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
I got mine for $298 with free shipping and a $25 gift card from J&R bringing it to $273...but that was during the holidays and I had to wait like 8 weeks to get it.
[Gen8 General] MadFlava:
Yea, J&R is out of them again.
[Gen8 General] kmagyar:
After searching for a place that just had them in stock for weeks, I finally was able to order one direct from archos yesterday. I am receiving the 8gb model today . It was 299.00 plus 30.00 for overnight shipping.
[Gen8 General] Tesla74:
In December Amazon had them for $299.. free shipping.. I wouldn't pay more than $350.
[Gen8 General] kdennie1334:
I got mine off Amazon last week for $349.99 for 16GB with overnight shipping for $3.99 (shipping cheap due to my Prime membership). The next day they was up to $415.99.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
So do I win a prize for getting mine for only $273? Seems I got the best price of the people that frequent this forum. :)
[Gen8 General] Tesla74:
I think the Archos website store is now the best deal.. 101 16G for $349

https://store.archos.com/archos-internet-tablet-p-5005.html

It seems the demand is so high for these that they can't make them fast enough.

I have done a lot of research on Android tablets and the Archos 101 definitely gives you the most bang for the buck! There are a lot of cheaper tablets out there, but they don't have capacitive touch displays and/or cut corners on other specs. Even with the newer tablets coming out that have Honeycomb and dual core aren't as good of a deal.. $700 for a tab is way too much.. worth buying an Archos 101 now and waiting a couple of years for the newer dual core tabs to come down in price.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
Yeah, but then there will be something new like Android Pudding version and quad core processors tablets which will make a dual core running Honeycomb seem stupid and slow.

If you want cutting edge you are going to have to pay the price (which will be $700-900) or you have to come to the stark realization that the cutting edge isn't that much sharper than the other edges. In which case the Archos 70 and 101's are the biggest bang for the buck in in the near future.
[Gen8 General] luisivan:
I got it from 270€ at Madrid, Spain, from an Archos wholesale.
[Gen8 General] Tesla74:
I don't think that Android will ever need more than two cores.. Tablets are fairly new.. Netbooks have been around for a few years and the hardware hasn't changed.
[Gen8 General] ExploreMN:
And Bill Gates said that no computer will every need more than 640k RAM! But I keed, I keed....

Honestly, I gave up trying to predict where technology will go because I am always wrong. Back in the day I said the internet will fail because who on earth would pay money to do what you can already do for free with BBS systems? I thought the iPad would fail for the same reason many did...it was just a big iTouch, what's the point? I thought Netflix wouldn't last because isn't it easier and more satisfying to just get your video when you want it, the day you want it, etc instead of having to "plan out" your entertainment and hope you feel like that kind of movie the day it arrives?

So yeah...it's easier to say you don't see it going past dual core, but seriously...who would have ever thought a phone would need dual core as well...yet they are coming.

Never underestimate the power of people who want to be parted from their money just to have something better than their neighbors and friends.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tankrat:
Trying to modify some of my icons but having issues with photoshop on my computer. I copied the framework-res folder unzipped with winrar down to icons I wanted.

Now when ever I open a icon png the image comes out the wrong size. The photoshop some how resizes it to a shorter image. I jabe gone through all the settings in photoshop to no avail. I have even tried a couple theme apk's and I get the same result.

What setting am I missing here? Or am I doing something wrong?

**Edited to add more info
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bstromberg:
maybe try opening up a blank canvas larger than you need and then cropping it down. try opening something that is about 100px by 100px at 300dpi with a transparent background, then just drag and drop the icon file onto the canvas.

also, i've found that editing png's is sort of a pain in the ass in photoshop. i would suggest fireworks. photoshop is great for photos, but fireworks is much more handy for creating/editing small graphics. just my personal preference, though.

Hi everyone, i flash my Xperia X10 mini to Android 2.1 last nigth and everything was ok , but now i have two specific problems with the phone... 1.- I can receive internet by 3g mode, i configure the APN but only i have EDGE but not 3G, i live in Venezuela and my mobile operators is Movilnet... 2.. The phone some times reboot.

I hope receive some help from the users of this forum. Thanx!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] frevilla97:
most provably you flashed it with the wrong model number, E10a for E10i for example, check the box that you mini came with it will show what model number you had, and then check your phone, goto settings, about phone, model number.

Get the right model number flash for you phone and you should have 3G back on line.
