After having issues with my Gallery and other things, I have flashed up to TNT 4.2 and did the supplicant and the market fix. I can see most apps in the market and I can install from the market, but when I go to MY APPS the only ones showing are my purchased apps. I manually restored apps from Titanium one by one, as I was not sure what I was doing. All apps are working but don't show under My Apps in the marketplace.

They do show in Settings under Downloaded applications. Any idea how to fix this? I have redone the market fix, numerous times.
[G Tablet General] ajkid93:
Did you wipe your data/cache before or after you installed the supplement? I had the same problem because I didn't. So I did that and then did the market fix and it worked perfectly.

If that doesn't work try side loading a older version of the market and replace the current one. For a while I used the market apk that was on my moto droid, because i was having some problems with the one that comes with the rom.

Keep in mind that it seems that each one fixes the market, but hides apps that you could see previously. I have tried all three and have seen different apps that other wouldn't show.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Download one free app, from the Market. Then check "My Apps" again. This seems to be a requirement for all the sideloaded apps to show up.
[G Tablet General] Guitarman21:
I wiped data and cache before installing the ROM but did not wipe data and cache before the supplement. Should I just go to recovery and wipe data/cache now and then retry the market fix?. Will I lose anything by wiping data and cache? I am not sure what that does.
[G Tablet General] ajkid93:
It wouldn't hurt to try. So I say go for it.
[G Tablet General] Guitarman21:
Robeet,

I d/l a free app and and that app along with my paid apps show but none of other free apps.
[G Tablet General] Guitarman21:
AJkid93, will I lose anything when I wipe data and cache?
[G Tablet General] ajkid93:
Yes you will, but if you don't want to lose everything you can dl titanium backup and backup everything. You can also do a nandroid backup just in case wiping the data/cache doesn't help. This way you can just revert back to the way it is before you wipe all of the data.

Hey guys, first time poster but long time reader. I'm running a Captivate on 2.1 rooted with one click and Voodoo lagfix. Was hoping you had some time to give me some help or input. Thanks!

I've been reading around and it seems like I'm stuck in a boot loop where it always goes to recovery mode regardless of how many times I reboot my system.

What happened was..

-I had a ROM I wanted to flash and an update.zip which would take me to CWM. -Got into CWM fine (used quick boot app to recovery mode since I don't have the 3 button recovery/download mode hardware style method)

-When trying to flash the ROM (Paragon RC5.1) I got an error while it tries to copy data over and I sourced the problem to being an incomplete download which I didn't check (when trying to extract the contents of the ROM .zip file i got a corrupt file error) The error in CWM is "Copying files... E: Failure at line 104 copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA: Installation aborted."

Yeah it was my fault basically, I made a lot of mistakes and just took risks. Was on a stock ROM anyway so I didn't think I'd have to ODIN to stock (first time flashing), especially since I don't have the 3 button hardware style reboot so I went straight to recovery through quick boot and tried to flash it right away.

Now all that happens is I'm stuck in recovery with no way of getting into download mode since I don't have 3 button capability. Every time I reboot it goes straight to recovery. Just looking for some suggestions, some light on my issue, or help please!

ADB to download mode then ODIN3 one click back to stock seems like all I can do.. Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks :)

EDIT: I'm part of the lucky Captivate build batch 1008 :(

fixed! ADB reboot to download, then odin 3 saved my phone!! sorry for making you read :)

This is one of the things that always comes up to my mind when I'm using my Samaung Focus and iPhone 4, what if my Samsung Focus had a Retina Display?

Or if iPhone 4 had three buttons and WP7
[Windows Phone 7 General] ErikWithNoC:
If the Samsung Focus had a retina display it would have a higher screen resolution. :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] revrak:
please, lets stop using merchandising bs terms, its just a higher res screen, its not a new technology, its just a buzz word.

i have a samsung focus too, and i would reall really like it to have a higher res screen and RGB configuration, but not at the cost of changing from SAMOLED to IPS
[Windows Phone 7 General] FL5:
Man, my focus with a lousy 3.5" screen would be terrible. What I want is WP7 on one of those new 4.5" super amoled + displays they're gonna put on that android phone they're making. That'd be the cheese, right there.
[Windows Phone 7 General] CSMR:
800*480 OLED with normal sub-pixels is good for phone sizes.

Text is most important and with normal subpixels you can turn on cleartype and have a boost in effective resolution. At 800*480 I think it's good for both images and text.

Pentile has lower actual resolution and doesn't have OS sub-pixel support.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
It's a bit more than a higher res screen. It is LCD tech but it has a viewing angle that is as good as OLED. There is no loss of detail or washout at angles...extreme angles.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
The thing though, is that I've never had a situation where I was using my phone and needed those types of viewing angles. As long as the phone is readable from a 100-120 degree viewing angle is seems like it's good enough for me.

The iPhone's viewing angles are good, but the screen size IMO worked against it for situations where the viewing angles would be a saver (showing stuff on your phone to others).

Also, the iPhone is still not that great when viewing it in direct sunlight, although it is better than some other LCD panels.

The Pixel Density is the biggest thing about the screen. It makes text, pictures, and even video look better than on lots of other lower-res phones...
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Yeah, the screen size is on the smallish side. I wish Apple would consider a 4.3 being the minimum size. But I'm finding other things about the iPhone screen (the whole screen - LCD and plate) that really make up for size deficiencies. I think Apple is using the Oleo-phobic tech on the iPhone because it is so much easier to move your finger across it than on other displays. I have Fruit Ninja on both my iPhone and HD7 and slashing the fruit is painless on the iPhone. Slashing the fruit on my HD7 is a bit of a chore because the finger want to adhere to the surface...like the squeak you get when running a squeegee over a clean pane of glass. The touch response seems to be a bit more accurate on the iPhone, too. But that is likely due to the coding of the game and nothing to do with the HD7's tech.

I think MS just simply ported FN to WP7 without even optimizing it because the display is squished rather than having the proper aspect ratio (a circle being oblong...like a football...rather than a true circle).
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
You are just talking about IPS panel.

iPhone4 and iPad do use IPS, but iPod Touch 4 does not have IPS. However Apple still call it "retina" display, so the term "retina" just means the 960X640 resolution.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
True, it is IPS LCD, which gives the best viewing angle among LCDs. But the main thing with the "Retina display" is the pixel density. Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia explaining the iPhone 4's display:

"The display of the iPhone 4 is designed by Apple and is manufactured by LG. It features an LED backlit TFT LCD capacitive touchscreen with a pixel density of 326 pixels per inch (ppi) on a 3.5 in (8.9 cm) (diagonally measured), 960×640 display. Each pixel is 78 micrometres in width. The display has a contrast ratio of 800:1. The screen is marketed by Apple as the "Retina Display", based on the assertion that a display of approximately 300 ppi at a distance of 12 inches (305 mm) from one's eye is the maximum amount of detail that the human retina can process.[35] With the iPhone expected to be used at a distance of about 12 inches from the eyes, a higher resolution would allegedly have no effect on the image's apparent quality as the maximum potential of the human eye has already been met. This claim has been disputed. Raymond Soneira, president of DisplayMate Technologies, said in an interview with Wired Magazine, that the claims by Jobs are something of an exaggeration: "It is reasonably close to being a perfect display, but Steve pushed it a little too far." Soneira stated that the resolution of the human retina is higher than claimed by Apple, working out to 477 ppi at 12 inches (305 mm) from the eyes.[36]

However, Phil Plait, author of Bad Astronomy, whose career includes a collaboration with NASA regarding the camera on the Hubble Space Telescope, responded to the criticism by stating that "if you have [better than 20/20] eyesight, then at one foot away the iPhone 4’s pixels are resolved. The picture will look pixellated. If you have average eyesight, the picture will look just fine.
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
S Amoled plus anyone?
[Windows Phone 7 General] revrak:
the only difference is that they have RGB instead of pentile right?

if that's the case, i would like to have one of those :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Hang out for the new organic display tech. It sounds like each dot can be any color, rather than having each pixel made up of red, green, blue separate dots. If this is the case, the definition will shoot through the roof.

[Windows Phone 7 General] martoto:
Such a screen size would be appropriate only if they change drastically their UI. Just think where usually are the main navigation controls on the iPhone - on the upper side of the screen. I am struggling to navigate comfortably with one hand on 3.5”, cannot imagine how can do that on bigger size. So much for the vaunted apple UI…
[Windows Phone 7 General] olyloh6696:
What is the highest resolution that WP7 supports? It seems strange that even Samsung do not want to increase the pixels on their new models announced at MWC. I feel WVGA is too 'basic' and not as pin sharp.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
Sure, it's all about the pixels. Steve also mentioned that the limit for what the human eye can se is 300ppi. Therefore, we already have a bunch of "retina"displays around, and also have had for years. Among them, The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 from 2007 had a ppi of 320, if I remember correctly. Toshiba had an device many years ago with ppi 311.:)
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
The iPhone 4 has a pixel density of 326ppi on a screen size of 3.5".
[Windows Phone 7 General] revrak:
when talking about density, the screen size does not matter.
[Windows Phone 7 General] olyloh6696:
was the toshiba device the e900 series? i believe it was a 3.2 WVGA screen, so it had a high pixel density on a mere 3.2 inch screen. Correct me if i'm wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
You're right, it doesn't matter.
[Windows Phone 7 General] olyloh6696:
I think that what really started of high displays was HTC's touch diamond. Sure other devices had VGA screens before, but the diamond was a true smartphone competitor. Than the touch hd changed everthing, and the new standard was WVGA. IMO, i think WVGA isn't good enough in todays market. I was hoping the new phone at MWC would have better resolutions, rather than bog standard WVGA screens, with their so called added technology (NOVA, Super AMOLED, REGZA display, etc)
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
I wish the next generation WP7 phones will have at leaset qHD resolution

That would look fine on 4 inch screen
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
I considered the qHD display of the soon-to-be-released Motorola Atrix 4G when I bought my iPhone. The Atrix is outstanding hardware limited by low-tech Android. And the Motorola versions are always the worse. I wanted that Atrix but couldn't bring myself to donate 2 years of my life to using it and spend the upfront money to own it because of Android. Had the Atrix used WP7, I would have bought one.

[HD2 General] beavisboots:
For weeks, hell months now I have been reading through threads about HD2's not responding to touch. I had just about every sympton everyone else had.

-touch would work then not

-soft reset would fix problem

-reload to OEM specs, temp fix

Finally like most, my phone stopped responding to touch too. Must be the digitizer. So I aquired another HD2 and went about my life. Some months later I aquired a third HD2 with a bad charging port. Everything else worked fine. So I took the main board out of the one I orginally had with the bad digitizer and swapped it with the one having the bad charging port. Guess what...the touch doesn't work after the swap. So I swapped back and it worked!!!!!

I then took the original LCD and Digitizer which I though was bad, hooked it up to the mainboard with the bad charge port and volia!!! Digitizer works. I left it like that a few days and it worked fine. I have and induction charging system for the phone so I used that to charge while I performed my tests.

I did lots more swapping and testing and my final result is the main board from my original phone is the culprit of the digitizer not working. Digitizer from both phones always works when hooked to the mainboard with the bad charge port and never works with the orginal mainboard.

After all the threads I read through I haven't seen anyone else with the mainboard being the problem/solution to the digitizer not responding so I though I would share. Keep in mind, even though the digitizer didn't respond with the bad mainboard, all other functions worked. The hard buttons responded, I could answer phone calls with them. I could communicate with the phone via USB, etc.

For some reason I can't flash my radio/wimax/pri to the latest versions for some reason, I boot into ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0 and run the .zip file and it looks like it's running and it says updating radios for a split second then it takes me back to recovery.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
I think you have to reboot before it flashes the images
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddkurowski:
I have tried first flashing the rom and then reboot into recovery and flash the .zip file but it still does the same thing, run for a split second and then go back to recovery and when I boot and check the radio version iit shows no change
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] generalExpert:
Try using a lower version of clockworkmod... lots of problems for people with the versions 3+. I currently use 2.6.0.1 and everything works perfectly. 3+ is meant for the newest of new Rom's like Cyanogen 7... if your not on that, flash an older version.

P.s. stick with 2.6.0.1 as it backs up your wimax keys...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddkurowski:
I will give that a shot. Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddkurowski:
In rom manager it only shows 2.5.0.7

Is there a link to how to flash to 2.6.0.1?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] generalExpert:
Yes I'm on my evo so I'm not going go searching for it... but you should be able to find it fairly easy. If I remember correctly I had to get the correct file, then rename it to pc3600.img then boot into bootloader and it will auto find it and ask you if you want to start the update.

Or you could just use the version that Rom Manager has but it wont back up your wimax and if you somehow lose that you'll hate your life...

Is there a way to use the EVO Radio app without having any headphones plugged in? I know thats what the evo uses to get signal, but is there a way to edit the app and trick it into thinking it has an antenna on? Because you should still be able to get signal considering the phone has metal and even the headphone jack connector is metal.

Any Ideas? (This would be a sweet hack)

Thanks,

Shawn
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
I don't think so. The reason the headphones work as an antenna it's because the fm chip uses the headphones as a loop antenna. The ground on the main board does not produce the same loop as headphones.

Alrighty. I did not know that...now I do. Thanks. (FYI I thanked you too lol)

It was just a thought.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
For sure, it would be much more convenient. I remember an old rom I had when you turned on the fm app it would play static before it detected there were no headphones connected and then muted it.

On the Fascinate, there are 3 locations options:

1. VZW location services

2. Standalone location services

3. Google location services

[Fascinate General] garywojdan81:
From what people are finding they all contribute & so far performance has been somewhat subjective to area. It seems that the stand-alone & the google services generate more drain for most. Apparently the gps toggle on the shade is for stand-alone.

Can someone explain the differences between the three options and the benefits of them?
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Starting with DL30 and EB01, I found there is an unholy relationship between WIFI sleep and Google location services. My phone idle screen-off battery usage stinks with WIFI enabled regardless of WIFI sleep policy... that is unless I disable Google location services. Note I leave mobile data enabled and have no background apps using gps or data.
[Fascinate General] sengokubattosai:
Now that you have mentioned this, I am also now curious as to what the differences between the three are in terms of battery usage and general functionality. All three seem to lock my location almost instantly when I open Google Maps but if one of them works just as well but uses less battery well that's a no brainer.

Side note, I almost never have GPS turned on. The only exception is when I'm driving somewhere unfamiliar and need directions.
[Fascinate General] mexiken:
1. VZW Location services aid Bing, and other Verizon branded apps use whatever means are available to help aid your autonomous GPS unit lock on a fix. Its a form of aGPS in a sense. If you use Bing, or VZ Navigator (which if you do, something isn't quite right with you....) it will use cell tower triangulation to approximate your location, to which it feeds to the GPS chip in hopes it may lock onto you faster. From what I've seen, it DOESN'T use WiFi to help locate a person, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

2. Standalone implies the autonomous GPS chip thats located in your phone. This is what the GPS toggles toggle. If you disable this, forget trying to have an accurate location. However, I have noticed that when used only when needed, and turned off the rest of the time, garners great battery life, for me anyway.

3. Google uses both WiFi AND cell triangulation to lock onto your relative position, while waiting for an actual GPS fix. And this options enables this on all Google apps (Maps, Browser, Search, etc)

I leave Google search on and since I don't ever have WiFi on unless I need it for something, I see no ill effects on battery life.

Hope this helps.
