[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustrho:
Mine has a little bit of wobble with or without a case on the phone. It's only annoying when I'm tapping on the display.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LGS1231:
I don't know if that's truly normal or not. Even if the hinges get loose from everyday use, I don't think the screen itself would act like that. So that's why I actually exchanged a G2 for that same "defect." My current one, of about one and a half months now, does not have the wobbly screen. I simply could not stand touching the screen and having the screen move with my fingers.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrenicX:
My first phone didn't do that, but I got a brand new in box replacement that does. Also, my wife's phone doesn't do it.

My newer one also has a slight creek sound sometimes when it rocks in portrait.

No biggy though. Like a computer with a noisy chair, I deal with it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
Why did you return your first g2? Yeah, mine is just annoying when tapping on the screen.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
I think the shakiness of the screen is from dropping the phone, slightly or not slightly. even from a slight drop I think it would make the screen a little shaky just because its so thin.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy125:
My phone has never been dropped and it has this "problem". It also creaks a little when opening probably from dust build-up
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
That's a good point. *Sigh* oh well.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackknightavalon:
Had mine for a few months now. The loose hinge is a VERY minor inconvenience, but the loose screen hasn't happened to me yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smartenup:
Weird, no loose hinge or screen here.....no creaks either. Dropped it twice on carpet though......
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santaclaws:
I dropped my phone from about 4ft high and it landed on concrete. Amazingly the phone is fine including the hinge.

And yes my hinge is loose but I knew about the issue before I purchased the phone. I really like the phone otherwise so I just deal with it.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shady503403:
Phone works like a charm.. preordered and have had it since 4 days it was released in stores.. :) shipped early. Whoot whoot.. dropped it from my pocket in the theater to the floor.. other than that never been dropped on anything hard. No hinge issue I would complain about.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daughain:
My hinge is loose also, but the rocking seems to come from the loose hinge. Least, thats where it seems to be on my handset.

Need to get around to replacing the spring.......
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hobjob:
Mine had a bit of a wobble too. I cut up a screen protector and put it in the corner underneath the screen (the part that is over the keyboard when the phone is closed) and it hasn't wobbled since.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustrho:
Could you possibly take a photo of how you did that?

I don't know what the hell happened to my phone, but it now makes this wobbling/clicking sound when I press the display on the left side. It's very annoying when I do anything with the screen. Not sure what to do to fix it, besides giving your fix a try.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dustrho:
Any other suggestions on how to get rid of the wobbling display?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
I know this is kind of late, but I know ive got the same pproblem as you. Just like others. Its the wobbling of the screen that drives me nuTs. The screen protecter would be a great idea but I would like further instruction on how to do so?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hobjob:
Sorry guys, completely forgot about this thread. I'll have some photos up in a bit.

Until then, I'll try to explain it better.

If you look at your phone's back, then open up the keyboard about half way you'll see a rubber strip. I just cut pieces of a screen protector roughly that size, then stacked them on the rubber strip until it didn't wobble as much. I shouldn't say it's 100% wobble free, but it is extremely close.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PatrickHuey:
Thank you sir, I appreicate you coming back and repsonding. Unfourtantly that's the only neagtive thing I have about this phone, and that's the wobble screen.

This is a port of Slayer69's theme found here. Credit of course goes to Slayer69 for creating an awesome theme! Theme includes extras: themed calculator and themed keyboard (see pics below). Background image can be downloaded here.

Changelog:

2/25/2011 created a rectangle battery mod (see pic below). This needs to be flashed over the main theme.

New! 3/14/2011 drop down notification now transparent thanks to nfinite (see updated pics below).

Disclaimer:

I'm not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone.

Instructions:

Make a nandroid just in case. Use CWM 2.5 or 3.x to flash (uses edify scripting). Busybox must be installed to flash. Flash over a modified sense ROM or use my theme eraser. Flashing ROM then theme without booting first will result in boot loop. Flash ROM boot phone then flash theme.

Not sure how probably this question is, however I am going to ask.

When using this Theme, I know it's ported from the similar EVO 4G theme, can you use the same add-ons with this? Such as the rotary lock screen and the different dial-pads that are offered?

When I listen to music(mostly streaming) I constantly play with the volume. When the screen is off and I am listening to music, I have to turn the screen on to use the volume buttons to change the media volume. How can I use the volume buttons to change the media volume when the screen is off(when music is playing)?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrycycle:
Are you stock or running a custom rom like CM7. I know there is a feature in CM7 for the volume controls to work with screen off. I personal don't know of a app for stock rom.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
Has it always been like this? Because I thought on most stock ROMs, nexus one even, the volume worked with screen off for music and call volume. Weird.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyijedi:
I'm on stock and my volume buttons have always worked fine with the screen off when adjusting media volume.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenvan19:
The issue might be that streaming apps such as pandora are running in the background or are do not have the functionality enabled. I've never tested it myself.

I am using CM7 RC1 as it saids in the my signature. Where in CM7 can the volume buttons be configured to work when screen is off? I looked several times in CM7 settings...maybe I'm just missing it.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_X1:
I saw that there's an EB13 kernel with EXT4 support in the development section. Don't know how that would help you really though unless you flashed the EB13 zip in CWM and then flashed the kernel, but I think you'd have to wipe/factory reset.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Oh ok sorry I read it wrong. Easiest way for you is to use Odin. There is no update.zip that will take you from dk28 to eb13 do you have to use Odin and flash it. You can flash stock eb13 odexed or you can flash a deodexed version that is prerooted with cwm and ext4.

Thanks for asking the question. I too am hoping an official EB13 thats set for EXT4.

basically I have an email.apk that is used on the tab that I want to load and use on my phone. What is the best way to do that. This is something I have not done yet so detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated. Or atleast point me to a thread that has detailed instructions. I here I can ADB push which I have never done. I also have heard I can install the .apk to my phone and use a application like file manager to open and load it to my phone?? does that make sense?? IDK. any instructions would be greatfully appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jRi0T68:
Get the paid version of Root Explorer.

Copy the Email.apk to you phone. Internal or External sd is fine.

Launch Root Explorer. Open the System folder, then the App folder, find your current Email.apk and longpress on it to move it to your External sd as a backup.

Navigate to your new Email.apk. Longpress o. It and move it into System/App folder.

Longpress on it, select Permissions, and leave read and write only checked on the first row, and only read on the other 2 rows.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DCrozier28:
awesome!! thanks!! Do I have to use root explorer or can I use something else like super manager??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jRi0T68:
I honestly don't know. I figured Root Explorer was one of those apps where it's worth it to buy for all its usefulness.

It probably can't hurt to try. As long as another app can move files to and from the system/app folder and change the permissions, it should work.

I ham using the Tall min text icon for my sms. So using folder organiser I have changed my application icon and added the widget on my homescreen.

I've updated to GRI40 from FRG83G like everyone else (Amon RA though)... but It seems that I'm stuck with the OLD market app: version 2.13.

Any ideas on how to update it?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingocr83:
Connect to Wifi wait a few minutes... open the market... close it..give it a minute... and then it will be updated automatically.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownbay:
Just to be clear, when you say close, should I force close or go back to the home screen for example (and let it sit there).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownbay:
Well, I tried what you said. Let it sit there for about 5mins, but the market did not updated.

I've force closed the market app now and will wait again to see what happens.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownbay:
The above didn't work as well.

I wonder if all update systems on the market are shut down for now.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madballs:
I got the market update after I manually updated to Gingerbread. However, later in the day after I did a factory data reset, my market did not get updated. It remained on the old market since then. I wouldn't worry too much about that, it will get updated eventually.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettbellaire:
I'm in the same boat. I have closed, and force closed many times with no update.

I'm sure it will happen soon...

(is it ONLY Canada with this problem, or just a coincidence that I see all those flags???)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slipshft:
I had this problem, and took these steps:

Access the market app.

Exit the market app to the home screen. Wait about 5 to 30 minutes (depending on wifi or 3G connection).

Power cycle the phone.

Access the market app. It should start then dissapear.

Restart the market app. It should now be on the current version.

Hope this helps.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tullnd:
Nope, still old market for me. Updated yesterday to GB. Old market. Powercycled multiple times. Tried on Wifi and 3G. None of that seems to matter.

Just isn't updating for me yet.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madballs:
Seems like there is a bug. I cannot clear data for the market under settings. The button for clear data has been greyed out. This happened after i first loaded the old market and it crashed. Hence, it didn't get updated.

There are two things you can do. Download market 2.3.2 and install it or do a factory data reset. I just did the factory reset. Open up market. Hit yes for the agreement. And once it loads, go back to the homescreen and let it sit there for a while. I opened up market again and now it automatically updated to the new market.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brownbay:
Well, I finally got around to installing the GRI40 rom from the Dev section over my OTA GRI40.

Used the stock unrooted ROM in this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=968396

I signed in as usual, but this time, I selected the checkbox where it ask if you'd like to restore previous appliations.

I did not do that before, and so it seems maybe that was the reason. Anway. After I signed into my Google account, I opened up the marekt and it was the old one. I exited to the home screen and let it sit there for about 5mins and when I launged the market again, I was greeted with a white screen and the loading circle. It took about 2mins I'd say and finally, the new market loaded.

Now all I'm waiting for with regards to GB is the new version of Gmail to be released on the market that includes long press C&P.

Upgraded to froyo from stock rom. I had quickoffice,which was free with the first att update. Now the icon is frakked and it says "this file is read only". The actual program seems to work fine, but i cannot fix the icon and quickoffice does not show up in the uninstaller. On the android market it does not recognize my phone having it installed, and i cannot get it free anymore (says $9.99). Anyway to fix this?
[Captivate General] kb0npw:
I had the same thing happen. I went to the quickoffice website and submitted a trouble ticket for it. May not help, but it was worth a shot.
[Captivate General] jlm60195:
same here, app works fine, just the icon is screwed up

mine shows in the app market, but as already installed and unable to locate on the phone to uninstall it

It's not that big of a deal to me
[Captivate General] RMarksUA:
I submitted a trouble ticket and got the following back as a response:
[Captivate General] kb0npw:
After a factory reset, Quick Office functions fine again and the icon is back to normal.
[Captivate General] pietro_spina:
I think I'll just live with a messed up icon rather than a factory reset.
[Captivate General] ianwood:
Does anyone have a link to the appropriate QuickOffice APKs with install instructions? I just installed Cog4.1 which is great but Quickoffice isn't there and the Market doesn't seem to know that we get it with our Captivates for free. It used to on other Froyos and Eclairs but not this one.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
If you read a few posts above yours, a ticket was sent and they replied. It looks like the captivate no longer gets the full version for free any more
[Captivate General] ianwood:
I saw that but it sounded very much like a canned answer. And it doesn't really make sense bcuz...

Didn't AT&T promote the fact that QuickOffice came with the phone? That and most of us have had several pre-release versions of Froyo already on our phones and were still able to download it. And finally, AT&T has already paid for my license (as have I by buying the phone). Seems more likely that AT&T forgot to flip a bit somewhere.

Or maybe that's just my own rationalization bcuz I don't want to shell out $10 for it.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Yes at first they did, but the last I heard before I stopped working for them was that with the new batch that came with 2.2 already we were not supposed to say that it came with it, but hey we all know AT&T. :rolleyes:
[Captivate General] pietro_spina:
Well I just couldn't live with the busted icon. :-)

So I pulled the Quickoffice.apk out of the /system/app folder and reinstalled it... Now it has it's lovely icon back and still works fine.

adb pull /system/app/Quickoffice.apk
adb install -r Quickoffice.apk

(the "-r" means reinstall)

you can also get the app out the factoryfs.rfs in this copy of the official froyo update

If you run linux just mount the .rfs (see command below) browse to the /system/app folder in your favorite file navigator and copy the file out. If you don't run linux.... why not? :-)

sudo mount -o loop factoryfs.rfs /mnt
[Captivate General] ianwood:
It's actually in the Cognition 4.1 zip so I assume it came with the leaked ROM. Re-installed it with ADB and all is good again. Thanks.
[Captivate General] timsline:
The response was incorrect. You have 15 minutes to cancel and get a refund, not 24 hours.

Plus, the update broke the icon. They should fix the icon instead of playing the blame game.
[Captivate General] garak0410:
My problem isn't just the icon...it appears to be totally gone and I can't redownload it from the market as it is a paid app...how do I get it back?
[Captivate General] ianwood:
It is contained in the ZIP of the Cognition 4.1 ROM if that is what you are using. Once you have located the APK in the ZIP, copy it to your PC and then you can reinstall it using ADB from the command line as was suggested earlier:

adb install -r Quickoffice.apk
[Captivate General] n2deep3d:
You might be better off to do a clean reset with Odin 1 click, and then a clean update to 2.2. I have Cognition 4.1 and my Quickoffice seems to be working fine after the update.
