I love you my friend.
[Fascinate General] Skrazz:
Either way, the update for the Epic was offered in Sammy's downloads section as well as ota so I shall be F5ing like a boss tomorrow
[Fascinate General] Pfredd:
Verizon usually posts an announcement on their web site prior to the OTA, listing changes and instructions on how to update.

So far, there are no new updates on their site...

Sent from my Samsung Fascinate
[Fascinate General] rowuncw:
I'm going to plead ignorant on this one and ask why everyone is so desperate for the official 2.2 OTA release if most people here seem to be rooted to 2.2 already? What's going to be the difference and/or the big deal? (I'm unrooted myself so am very much looking forward to the OTA update).
[Fascinate General] Skrazz:
One word. Source.
[Fascinate General] thatdudebutch:
This...... ..
[Fascinate General] cabjmb:
Word. This will allow us to get a fully functional Froyo AOSP ROM going... Or, MIUI, or, etc...
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
Open Sores ftw....oops, I meant Open Source.
[Fascinate General] jenisiz:
Haha...nice
[Fascinate General] superchunkwii:
Not holding my breath but I am eager to see the final build release. Really getting tired of this clock lag issue that cropped up on me starting last Friday. odd it only gets up to 20mins behind.
[Fascinate General] mexiken:
MIUI....(drools like Homer)
[Fascinate General] stayin100:
Cant wait for source to be released to see what these devs can do with it!
[Fascinate General] okubricko:
I'm sure SamsungJohn will be the first to let us know about an update. He said he was working on a big announcement /sarcasm/
[Fascinate General] mpmorph:
so its 2/22 where's the update? :confused:
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
There most likely isn't one coming today. It was only a rumor (just like DL09 was going to be Froyo, or all those magical other things we've been told). The claims about today have been circulating since EB01 was leaked... it's possible today WOULD have been the launch date if EB01 was going to be the final version, but I don't even think EB01 is final anyways (not that we have really any evidence about anything).
[Fascinate General] Skrazz:
I just want to remind everyone that the source of this rumor was correct about the Epic 4g update yesterday so it holds a little more ground.
[Fascinate General] traT3gic:
hey it's Feb 22, 5:03PM --- NO OTA here on a stock EA28, curse you Verizon
[Fascinate General] noman2:
Mine says Downloading on the Status bar with a ! surrounded by a triangle and has been stuck at 0% for the past 2 hours. my battery is drained and every once and awhile it keeps saying cannot connect to server try again later.

i wonder if this is the update?
[Fascinate General] Avelnan:
Try doing it over 3g, wifi never works for some reason.
[Fascinate General] tats_06:
There is no update on 2/22...or 2/23...or February...

I emailed Samsung open source to get an update and here is their response:
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
I wouldn't trust a rep from Samsung or Verizon in the slightest. I think it's a safe bet that they're right about no release this month (there's only 3 more business days this month, and Friday/Monday aren't really good days to push a major release out!), I wouldn't hold my breath that there'll actually be a release in March. It might, it might not. There really aren't many reliable sources at all when it comes to this stuff (I have a feeling that most people at Samsung and Verizon that deal with the roll-outs don't really know either... I imagine that in a backroom, some high level PHB's sole job is to make the decision... he has two buttons on his desk: one will silently delay the release, and cause his stripper secretaries to bring in a keg of beer, while the other will release the update, but cause a guy to come in and spend the next 45 minutes kicking him in the groin...).
[Fascinate General] vai1018:
If only they hired masochists, we'd have official Gingerbread by now....
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
It's probably for the best that the update seems to have been pushed back to March, since EB01 currently has more bugs than a beehive. I will be highly disappointed if the current EB01 build is released as the "official" update next month. Hopefully they'll make it work better with Clockwork, you know, so we can void our warranties more easily (heh heh - that would be like Samsung giving you $200 towards your next LG phone ;-))

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate General] PJnc284:
more bugs than a beehive? I'm using the debloated/deodexed version and it's running as well or maybe even better than any of the official updates so far.
[Fascinate General] rion_j:
and what version are you referring to? i'd like to load this up on my device. thanks!
[Fascinate General] Ahodson1985:
So far dj05 has been the most stable build for me. I can't stand the constant sleep of death and screen shot taking and not sleeping when I need it to so I'm reflashing dj05 when I get home
[Fascinate General] PJnc284:
Using the version found here that's labeled Debloated/Deodexed Froyo Leak+root+Froyo Clockworkmod. Just flash via odin.

Also running jt's voodoo kernel and EB01 Midnight/Steel Blue V1.2SE with no compaints.
[Fascinate General] rion_j:
^^^ sweet, thanks for the info. will you flash back to stock once the official is released? or will you stay on the leak. this leak looks awesome btw!
[Fascinate General] PJnc284:
doubtful. I'm satisfied with what I have now. I'll probably go play around with the MIUI build in the development forum or punk_kaos' Gingerbread build when source gets released and they hopefully get the bugs worked out.
[Fascinate General] rion_j:
nice, sounds awesome! that is exactly what i'm looking forward to playing with as well. MIUI looks very cool!
[Fascinate General] chronster:
so dj05 is more stable than eb01!?
[Fascinate General] PJnc284:
I'm running EB01 now. I had DJ05 and DL09 briefly when they were leaked and definitely like EB01 better.
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
Captivate gets Froyo tomorrow: http://phandroid.com/2011/02/23/att...g-captivate-begins-pushing-tomorrow-feb-24th/

And now, we are the ONLY ones without official Froyo.
[Fascinate General] PJnc284:
Not quite. Everyone seems to quickly forget the Continuum and Mesmerize granted those were released a month or 2 after the last of the big 4
[Fascinate General] adrynalyne:
I like eb01.
[Fascinate General] Pfredd:
+1 on that.

EB01 with Voodoo super clean and juice defender.

All the benefits of Froyo with great speed and battery life!

Sent from my Samsung Fascinate
[Fascinate General] nmyeti:
once you figure out to disable auto rotation, GPS, and wifi from the pull down shade EB01 is pretty awesome. That said, i'd love to get a hold of Kaos' new leak.
[Fascinate General] Skrazz:
Build FU69 looks so much better than EB01. Can't wait!
[Fascinate General] ilprobu2:
+1 on the fu69 hahhhhha
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
It doesn't work fully on our phone, so unless you want less functionality, it's useless.
[Fascinate General] jpolzner:
So it sounds like the EB16 generic build then?
[Fascinate General] AlexDeGruven:
His twitter message made it sound like it was actually a Fascinate-specific EB16 build, not the generic that the forum sneaker was touting the other day.

Not sure w/o specifics, though.
[Fascinate General] Naris:
Sounds like they're hard at work reading the updates on Twitter. Kaos and anyone else working on leaks around the clock like this deserve a medal. Considering Verizon/Samsung seem content to stonewall everyone and keep them to outdated builds they're the only real life I see keeping things going.
[Captivate General] huy8687:
Hi! Everybody!!!

My english is not good so hope you understand

I will talk briefly

Step1: fully charged battery (>90%)

Step2: unmount SD card (Setting->SD card and phone storage -> unmount SD card)

Step3: remove the SD card from your phone

===> complete !!!

Your mobile will not have sd card ... understand ^^!

Thank you !!! Goodluck
[Captivate General] aliwaqas:
Thanks for this but aren't u missing a step 4 where I think peeps have to reboot their device?..right? or just taking away memory card will solve the problem???
[Captivate General] huy8687:
just taking away memory card will solve the problem???

=> right ...

but if you reboot mobile, you must put the memory card into your device and do steps above
[Captivate General] hayden1987:
I'll try this and report back the results :)
[Captivate General] huy8687:
Good job ???

I hope it can help you
[Captivate General] defnow:
Please do. Im curious.
[Captivate General] smokestack76:
I tried it before. Well without my SD card in. And still had the shutdowns. So who knows for sure.
[Captivate General] maedondias:
O.o Not gotten it around to try it yet, i could see how this is possible after seeing the other fix of cleaning the battery leads. The idea I'm getting from how this COULD work would be that the system is expecting a higher voltage limit when the SD card is present and it's still fluxating outside of it. Remove the SD card and it'll hold the original fluxuation limits but reduce the actual size of the fluxuations during use. Best explanation of how this MIGHT work assuming it does.
[Captivate General] b_rad_1983:
What if the phone doesn't have an external memory card to take out? Is there a way to take out the internal one?

Iv tried taking out my sim card and by doing so it did not shut down on me. But what good is a phone with no sim card!

This is a replacement phone (refurbished) and im still waiting for them to get back to me with a second replacement. But iv been waiting two weeks so far.
[Captivate General] HollywoodBob:
Today, I received my replacement Captivate. I had it replaced because of the random shutdowns.

The tech support rep who issued the replacement informed me that the shutdown problem is caused by a manufacturing defect on all phones built before November 6th, 2010.

If your phone is shutting down, best get it replaced before the warranty expires.
[Captivate General] crystalhand:
Ya I believe that the shutdown issue is caused by bad ram so not sure how this could solve the issue. But who am I to argue if it works
[Captivate General] SnakeHaveYou:
My Captivate is built before November and it had the random shutdowns.

Rarely, it was automaticaly fixed when i flashed the first Froyo leak from AT&T, the day it was posted..
[Captivate General] hayden1987:
just want to report back that this method did not work for me...

I charged the phone fully unmounted the SD card and removed and went to sleep and when I woke up the phone had shutdown :(
[Captivate General] Eschatologist:
I'm seriously sick of this ****. I've flashed back to complete stock Rogers and calling them tomorrow. Up to 10 shutdowns in an hour, totally random...even had a shutdown during a call this week. Fed up...
[Captivate General] Hydro360:
I had the shutdown issue. Installed a custom rom. Shutdown issue gone
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
If your phone is shutting down get it replaced....I've never had a memory card and I got shutdowns until I replaced my phone....
[Captivate General] loonieryan:
Where do you check the build date?
[Captivate General] hayden1987:
I think a lot of us on here are trying to find a solution because we can't get it replaced due to not being in the US :(
[Captivate General] nkrick:
I believe it is a manufacturing defect, and it seems to be caused by bad memory modules, but I don't think it is present on all phones built before November 6th, 2010. I have owned my phone since the end of August and have never had a random shutdown. I suspect there were some bad batches of memory and there is no way to trace exactly what phones they ended up in, so any phone manufactured before November 6th could have a bad memory module, but may not.
[Captivate General] loonieryan:
I'd really like to know how to check when my phone was manufactured. Any ideas please?
[Wildfire General] moni94:
Hi. Whenever I mount my SD card to the PC and then unmount it, all the apps on the SD card remain unavaible for about 20 minutes, when they slow start to reappear again. Any ideas why this happens? Maybe some app is causing this...
[Wildfire General] ephbee:
sounds like a very slow sd card, mine is a 16gb class2 and it takes a couple of minutes to load everything
[Wildfire General] maaz_obaid:
lol.. instead of quote, i hit the thanks button. anyway, i would suggest that you backup all ur mem card contents on PC and format your mem card. I have class 4, 4GB card and i faced the same problem. (about 7-10 mins). formatting the mem card solved it and now it takes just a couple of mins.
[Wildfire General] moni94:
Well I benchmarked my SD card and it gives the following results:

write: 3.8 MB/s

read: 1.5 MB/s

I think this is ok for a class 2 card, isn't it?
[Wildfire General] melvinchng:
My class4 write upto 10mb
[Wildfire General] moni94:
Did you format the sd card through the phone or through your pc? And did you change its file system?
[Wildfire General] maaz_obaid:
i unmounted sd card and formatted it using a memory card reader via PC. did'n change file system.. i left everything to its defaults.
[HD2 General] TheRockSays94:
Hi, how are you, guys ?

I'm new to this awesome forum (helped me many times), and I decided to post a new thread because I believe that my situation is pretty serious.

I'm from France, by the way, so I apologize in advance for potential grammatical errors or what. Let's cut it to the chase.

Like most of you, I love new technologies with mobiles, that's why I bought what I consider to be the greatest smartphone on the planet right now, the HTC Leo/HD2.

When I searched all over the internet for tests, reviews about several phones I planned on buying, the HD2 seemed to be the most versatile of them. I was most notably amazed by the fact that the Leo could be a home to Windows Mobile 6.5, Windows Phone 7, Android, among others. So my choice was made.

I wanted immediately to upgrade the OS, and to go into WP7. Several reasons to that, the first being Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional. As it's name indicates, this OS seemed to be made for professional purposes. Plus, and you may guess it, I was really excited to try Windows Phone 7.

I tried to search the easiest and most detailed tutorial on how to upgrade to WP7, and I found this site:

I'm not authorized to post the link to the site, so I'll just tell you that the article is "Download Windows Phone 7 [WP7] ROM For HTC HD2 [Install Guide]", in Aliwaqas[dot]com

Looks serious, right ? :)

I downloaded the files and followed the instructions.

Aparté: Before that, a week before, I downloaded the latest ROM from the HTC website, because I had a problem with text messages, a problem some of you (or even all of you) must've had: It took way too many time for the virtual keyboard to appear and process with the text message. So I download the ROM, it was the one from 2010-10-11, 3.14.406.2.

Back to the WP7 upgrade, now.

- It was asked to grab MAGLDR, extract and copy the files to my desktop: Done.

- Download HardSPL 2.08 and install it: Done.

After that, my phone completely froze at the white HTC Screen. Every time. I tried Soft & Hard Reset many times, still freezing. I continued, hoping that WP7 would stop the freezing.

- Download the 2.15.50.14 radio and install it. Done.

- Connect my phone to the computer and execute MAGLDR (v1.12): Done.

- Go to the fifth option, "USB Flasher": Done

And there stops my progression. As a matter of fact, it is aked to execute DWI.exe, which I did. However, every time, it finishes with this:

An error has occurred

Read below for more information

Error Description: USB init failed

Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (1198)

Error Description: EnterBootloader missing

Info: .\RSPL\BootLoader.cpp (176)

Can anyone help me on this, please ? Because I can't even restart it all with the Hard Reset, because it doesn't work, obviously.

Thank you to all, peace !
[HD2 General] fred_up:
Did you have the 3.14 ROM installed prior to running HSPL2, flashing the 2.15.50 RADIO?
[HD2 General] TheRockSays94:
Yes I did, sir.
[HD2 General] alarien:
Hi there!

Try something like: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914026

Peace.
[HD2 General] fred_up:
The first thing you need to do is downgrade the WinMo6.5 ROM to either 1.66 (HTC) or 1.72 (branded: T-Mobile, Vodafone, etc). Go to HTC's website and download the ROM from there - you need to use your phone's serial number.

Put the phone into BootLoader Mode (with the phone off, press and hold the Volume Down button then tap the Power button). You will se a 3-colour screen with 'Serial' at the bottom. On the screen you should see SPL 3.03.0000 (this tells that you have the 3.14 ROM installed). Now connect to the PC and the 'Serial' will change to 'USB'.

Run the ROM (just tick the box about ActiveSync as bootloader bypasses the need for it). If you are running with Vista or Windows7 then you need to do this as an administrator. Once this is down you will have either a 1.66 or 1.72 ROM (either will have changed the SPL to 1.66.0000).

You can now run HSPL2 and select 2.08.HSPL.

You can now run the 2.08.50 RADIO.

Now you are prepaired to enter the world of WP7 or Android NAND flashing.
[HD2 General] TheRockSays94:
Hi,

Thank you for helping me. :)

In fact, fred_up, I'm already in SPL-2.08.HSPL. I went in the thread alarien suggested even before posting this one. When I told you that I tried everything I could, it was real. Went into several forums, several languages, but no solutions. I hope this'll be the one. Anyway.

When it is into BootLoader Mode, here is what's in there ("_" means "blank):

PB81100___HX-BC

SPL-2.08.HSPL__8G___XE

_______________0x05

CotullaHSPL______0x30

Even though I'm already at SPL 2.08.HSPL, do I still have to go through the process "3.03 -> 1.66 -> 2.08.HSPL -> 2.08.50" ?
[HD2 General] silverwind:
Not really. But it's worth trying Bro ;)
[HD2 General] coldest~~~:

Yes, theroffness, I have, unsuccessfully.
[HD2 General] TheRockSays94:
Hi, everybody, thank you for your help :)

I re-downloaded the WPLEO7 folder, and I reinstalled it, it worked ! I'm now in Windows Phone 7, and it looks gorgeous.

On to the next problem, now :P

My phone is not recognized in my computer, no matter what way I try to go with. Installed Zune and the Windows Mobile Device Center, I can't do anything. Furthermore, the WMDC doesn't detect my WP7'ed HTC HD2. I want to install TouchXplorer and other .xap files, and I can't seem to find how I could possibly do that.

Anyone, s'il vous plaît ? (means "please" in french, for those of you who didn't know ! lol)

Again, Thank you to everybody who wanted to help me ! :)

I did it, thanks for the help. However, ever since I installed chevronwp7.cer, my computer can't seem to recognize my phone anymore. I have all the related software, but I can't go farther.

Also, when I put an SD Card on my phone, it can't switch on !

I honestly don't know how to deal with that, can someone do ? Thanks.
[HD2 General] TheRockSays94:
I just solved the problem by my own. But I still have this problem with SD Card. When I put it on my HD2 (at that time, the phone is off. When it is on, it isn't recognized by the phone), I can't switch it on. I obviously need space because I can't even send some damn text messages.

[Vibrant General] dbacchus:
What do you mean 'could this be real'? :-) Is this some amazing deal or smth? Original Vibrant was 99$ with 2 year contract at bestbuy. So yeah, it's real. And nothing special.

But you can't upgrade your vibrant for $150, if that's what you think it is.
[Vibrant General] epakrat75:
Sure, it could be real. For $150, you'll get roped into another 2 year contract (extention if eligible) and given 15GB LESS of internal storage than the original for your trouble. 4G Speeds? Don't expect it to best your original Vibrant just yet if you're not in a good location.
[Vibrant General] jrosarioaz:
As nice as this phone may be, basically having all the features that the original vibrant should have had, 4G speed while nice will not be worth the upgrade. Better versions of this phone are on the horizon and ill wait another year till then if i have to. Modified by flagship or Team Whiskey and your phone will last another year or 2. I honestly feel these phones are ahead of their time and with upgraded software can compete with any phone out there.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gstreff:
Trying to solve.... or find an easy work around the problem with Captivates setting the Notification Ringer Volume down to 20-25% by itself.

It happens everytime a USSD code is ran like checking your min or data with *646# or *3283# and from what I have read in other forums and threads almost any USSD code. The root of the problem seems to be these AT&T codes are the same as the Samsung phones own native codes to lower the volume. The AT&T user interface did not take this into account.

Has anyone found an App to restore the volume with a one click widget or an App that will lock the volume and over ride the USSD code ability to set the volume down? I tried Quick Settings with no luck. If I lock the Ringer and Notification volumes together with Quick Settings it pulls both volumes down.

Any information on whether the upgrade to Froyo 2.2 will fix this? I have a stock Captivate running 2.1 Eclair.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supaphreek:
So, after looking at my bill for last month... and the fact that my captivate dies within 1 day. (Actually yesterday, i went to a concert... for 12 hours, it died twice...). So here is my question.

How do i limit when and which each app fetches data from the internet? The way i see it, when an app has to do that, it uses data and battery... and its almost every 10 minutes or so.

The current apps in using that use data are :

AppBrain

Appsfire

Catch

Clock (the weather thing inside must use some data...)

FancyWidget (Also has weather in it...)

CNET News

Engadget

Evernote

Facebook

FMyLife Official

Game Time

Gmail

Market

My Account (A rogers tool to check your usage)

Plse

Twitter

Youtube

Those are all the apps i use. is there anyway i can limit them to refreshing every hour? or when i open these apps?

Thanks :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Download "Super Power" from market. Set it to disable data, and set a schedule to allow data for 5-10 mins every hour. That should solve ur issue.

Alternate is to go into each app and set up its sync settings to match what u want.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supaphreek:
Thanks :)

gonna give it a shot :D

Has anyone found a good car charger that they know works with the Focus? My dad's super-paranoid about my phone, and wants me to have a car charger. The problem, as many of you probably know, is that the Focus seems finnicky about what chargers it gets along with. Does anyone have one that they've tried that works?
[Focus Accessories] DownbeatClique:
I went with the Belkin Micro USB car adapter, works great, especially if you need to charge other USB devices.
[Focus Accessories] Tempest790:
This is the charger I used. It's made by Motorola but it works great with the Focus. Plus the LED light is a transparent window which looks awesome. It doesn't quite look like the photo. It's also discounted. I'll probably be ordering a couple more to keep in my other car.
