And who has any idea about how to make the entertainment display the other font?now it's like webtop if any other fonts need be displayed on TV.
[HD2 General] panxter:
Hello!

aaand YES! I screwed my HD2 up, so it cant boot... at all...! :'(

Is there any way i can force a complete format and reinstall the stock 6.5 windows?

(Long story short: installed custom radio, chucky rom and android, worked fine, wanted to install WP7, missed a step, messed it up, and not, it shows the old Chucky loading screen, and then goes into a menu that asks me what i want to do with the device, but i cant select the different options. The phone wont 'activesync' because it wont start up). Anything i can do?

ANY help MUCH appreciatet! willing to do anything to get it to work again, since i dont really want to return to my ooold Sony Ericsson W880i -.-

Thank you all in advance!

Regards, panxter
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
do you mean the magldr screen? vol up and down is scroll up and down, , send to select

choose usb flashing, flash your rom. (nand android or wp7)
[HD2 General] panxter:
Ah, cool mate.. Only problem is: When i select USB-flashing it goes:

" USB Flasher mode

wait USB..."

And my computer fails to set it up :b
[HD2 General] panxter:
Oh nvm, got it to work now!

Thank you SO much mate! You made my day... or night, even! :D
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
heh, no prob
[HD2 General] Skellyyy:
Just make sure when you're trying to flash any other ROM's just disable USB connections in ActiveSync before you flash as it'll say "USB init failed" otherwise. :)
[HD2 General] panxter:
Cheers mate!

Now just a minor question, then i'll shut up xD

I just realised that i flashed the new WP7-ROM without the SD-card, which means that it wont register the card now.. (this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=953078)

Can i just re-flash it? or what should I do? :)
[HD2 General] Skellyyy:
Yeah just flash it again using MALGDR. With the SD card in this time. ;)
[Xoom General] lanternca:
Does anyone know what kind of charger the xoom uses? Is it the micro USB like the droids? I hope so. Thanks.
[Xoom General] setite:
no it uses a regular a/c laptop type plug.. small thought teeny tiny
[Xoom General] socomdark:
its not unfortunately. its more like a laptop charger but much much more thin.
[Xoom General] arrtoodeetoo:
No. Unfortunately, it's a proprietary charger with a huge freakin' wall wart.

Watch the XOOM Unboxing vid here to see it.

The video says the USB gives a trickle charge, but that's wrong. The user manual explicitly states NOT to try to charge via USB as it may damage the device. I wonder how many morons will try that and fry their XOOMs. :P

Confirmed.

keith_4g (Motorola Engineer):

"The USB port is not capable of doing any sort of charging. Any power drawn from a USB charger is leakage current and not necessarily good for the device."
[Xoom General] schnoz:
Does anybody know if / where extra chargers can be purchased? I want one for work and home.
[Xoom General] setite:
Motorola has them online. Probably amazon too.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Damn I was hoping as it'd be like most of the android phones.that way I don't have to buy another in car charger

[Xoom General] ninjalex76:
Stopping USB charge

How would one prevent a USB connection from attempting to charge the Xoom? Yell at the electrons to stop?
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
The port just doesn't support charging, just data. The batteries draw too much to charge over USB.
[Xoom General] jashsu:
Like most barrel type connectors, it does "click" into place. I'm more worried about the connector breaking off in the receptacle; the male plug is only 1.5mm diameter.

Unfortunately charging through USB is likely to be uncommon with tablets given standard USB's 500 mA limitation. The iPad charges through the USB, but it does not charge when the device is on.
[Xoom General] dino325:
to answer the question about the charger and how it fits. Yes is does slip out of the charging port rather easily especially when using the portfolio case which for me is the biggest design flaw of the xoom. I overcome this by using the docking cradle and sitting the xoom in my lap. Works well for me.
[Xoom General] calin75:
I wonder how true is this? It claims to be a car charger with a micro USB tip.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Silicone-Skin-C...304?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e61cb0e50
[Xoom General] takitorlevit:
charger is a disappointment, but not a deal breaker. Another device another cord, just when I thought micro USB was just getting some steam. But on the bright side no orientation issues. I suspect I will get the dock and the charger will not matter.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Its not gonna charge. That charger is designed for a phone. They're just bundling it together like they do for every device lol. Its pretty well documented the Xoom won't even trickle charge over USB.
[Xoom General] craigrnelson:
it is a 12volt power supply. That is why it is so small not to be confused with the 5v mini USB. The Xoom needs 12 volts to charge
[Xoom General] Rich W:
I'm sure that someone like iGo will come out with a tip for it. I have already e-mailed them about it. I have two tips for it for different devices that store on the cord so you don't loose them. The will be solutions for most of the issues if we are just a little patient.
[Intercept Accessories] 5318008:
I don't know if this is typical. My Intercept's battery does great when I'm not using data, but with heavy browsing or tethering, it loses hit points like it's soaking up ghosts in Gauntlet. I'm looking for extended or high-capacity batteries, but there don't seem to be any on the market yet. I found some 1800mAh ones (bump of 20%) for Omnia i8910 (supposedly same form-factor) over here on Ebay UK but anyone know of any others? Thanks.
[Intercept Accessories] old_dude:
The stock 2.1 battery meter seems to be somewhat flawed on the VM Intercept. Using a 3rd party battery monitoring app will show the battery at only around 75% when the Android system is reporting it as 'full' or 'charged'.

In other words, if you're charging your device based on what the stock 2.1 system tells you, your battery is apparently only being charged to around 75% or so.
[Intercept Accessories] 5318008:
Hmm, yeah, I'd noticed the battery meter didn't always seem accurate, but that's pretty lame if it's not charging fully. If it helps I'm leaving it on charge all night, every night. For now, I just got an extra charger to leave at my desk at work, it just sits on there all day.
[Intercept Accessories] dodgejcr:
Intercepts batter should last at least 16-18 hours on decent amount of usage. The battery meter is flawed, severely. It has the images inside of the framework for 10% increments but doesnt use them. The stat_sys_batt_vinsq.xml shows the readout changing ever 25-30% or so. Not sure why samsung did this but its pretty wonky
[Intercept Accessories] old_dude:
My stock VM Intercept 2.1 begins reporting the battery as 'charged' at around 65%, meaning that it will begin bleeping for you to remove it with popup messages. If you leave it on longer and either ignore the bleeping or put it in silent mode, the battery will continue to charge up to around 97% or so according to 3rd party battery monitoring apps. Sometimes this causes android to wig-out though, requiring a reboot to restore functionality. It seems best to remove it from the charger around 90% - 95%.

Also interesting is that it seems to take a long time for it to reach that last 20% ...don't know what's up with that. Compared to my G1 the Intercept takes forever to charge.

Maybe 2.2 for VM will fix it. lol!
[Intercept Accessories] 5318008:
Yeah, I'm hoping 2.2 will tighten it up a bit and help some 3rd-party stuff lose a bit of lag (games mostly.) Looks like the 3/25 date got pushed back, I'm hearing 4/4 now. Network issues or something, I dunno.
[Intercept Accessories] old_dude:
Interesting to note that the 'wigging out' of Android that I spoke about above when charging past the stock 'battery full' bleeping noise (70%) seems to be sound-related. It is interesting in that the issues with replacement roms also appear to be largely sound-related (sound lag, etc.). Don't know whats up with that....hardware issues?

You can mitigate the sound issues during charging by putting it in 'silent' mode though when you go above 90% or so.

Now if someone can figure out why picture-messaging is so buggy when you send from the camera app..... :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thunderteaser:
Hello, guys!

I was cooking my own rom when I decided to change startup and shutdown sounds of the default Galaxy S animations. I was pretty happy about the result that I wanted to share it with you! ;)

v1

v2

I'm not the owner of these sounds, I just edited them with Audacity to optimize the sound quality, volume and lenght.

I made two flashable zip files to use JUST with ClockWorkMod Recovery, one to install the theme (new_sounds_CWM.zip for v1 or new_sounds_v2_CWM.zip for v2) and one to revert the changes (default_sounds_CWM.zip).

This sound theme is meant to match only the default animations. If you're using a custom bootanimation, you won't hear the startup sound.

Please, use them at your own risk! These are my first flashable zips. Something could go wrong if you're unlucky so it's always good to have a nandroid backup, although I used a template as a base and tested both on my phone.

I really hope you enjoy it! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] davwman:
Works on captivate running cognition 4. You should post this in the captivate section I'm sure they would appreciate this as much as I do.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lucabaldo3:
The shutdown sound is very nice, the boot sound... Less XD
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thunderteaser:
Thank you! :D You may do this on your own if you want, you can either link to this thread or just post the zips, I don't really care about credits...

Well, that wasn't meant to be a boot sound, but I like it! :D

P.S.: You may also change the PowerOn.wav from the zip with the one you want. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] T0fi:

would this work with darkys v9.3 b 3 ? mite give it try later to find out :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thunderteaser:
It should work... It would probably work even if you have a custom bootanimation and you enabled bootanimation sounds from speedmod tweaks but probably it won't have the same feel if you don't have the original ones!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jay1980uk:
no start up sound here but i do have custum bootanimation on. but the new shut down sound works , not bad with the darky flashin .

Sent from GT-I9000 using XDA App
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thunderteaser:
It should not be supposed to work if you're using a custom bootanimation, but there's a tweak in the SpeedMod kernel to enable sounds for them, though I haven't tried it yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jay1980uk:
yeah ive tryed it with speedmod with tweek enabled , but still no go .

still a nice shutdown sound tho :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thunderteaser:
Sounds bad! :( I guess I can't do anything about it... Though you can try removing your bootanimation.zip and see if you like the default animations with new sounds.

[Captivate General] ed116:
As the title says it, should i trade it for desire z? ive read some stuff online, like i know captivate has an amazing screen, looks good, bigger screen , samoled, but the thing is it sells for less like 350$ if your lucky.. should i do it?
[Captivate General] bames:
Should i wear the Blue Shirt or the Green Shirt? :D
[Captivate General] ed116:
green :) btw b honest lol .
[Captivate General] Kaik541:
I, personally, would take the trade. I prefer the look and feel of the Desire Z (though the keys are a bit small), and being an HTC device, it tends to have a much larger community following/support (like cyanogenmod and the like)... but that's just my opinion on it
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
inital rooting and stuff is a bit more in-depth than captivate but it is totally doable and had many of the same options. i originally was going to get the Z because it has keyboard too. after looking into the extra crap i was kind of releaved. check out the XDA wiki on that phone for more info
[Captivate General] davwman:
I like the desire z, I'm partial to HTC products and the use of adb tools mainly because I have zero formal training in any computer training. Using adb to root has a certain wow factor for me. However I had the inspire for a week and returned it after bringing it back to stock form. I just couldn't justify paying the full retail price for it. So, now I'm back to the captivate using cog 4 and have a new renowned love for this phone. Ultimately its up to you. I personally think the captivate is a great device especially with a base froyo and GPS being fixed. Build quality would go to HTC though. I hope this helped as its a long rant.
[Captivate General] di11igaf:
I was really not impressed with the inspire, or sense for that matter.

After messing around with the inspire for two days and seeing how much stuff sense adds in it actually makes me feel less bad about t-wiz. With touch wiz after you delete the launcher and some samsung apk's, alls that's left is twframework which besides adding some small cosmetic stuff adds the shortcuts to the pull down menu, which I like. The inspire had more htc apks than almost the total amount of apks in my rom. There was almost 60 framework files before deodexing the inspire. The inspire is generally quick as far as cpu stuff, like app to qr. I use this app sometimes for a real life cpu task tests when testing kernels and whatnot. The inspire will generate the apps 2-3 times faster than the captivate. Despite this, the captivate just feels waaaaaay smoother and LESS laggy mostly I guess because the GPU is so much better.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
i have been using my HTC Vision (Tmob G2) unlocked with my ATT card (most of my time is spent on wifi anyway) and while i absolutely love the battery life i get with the DesireZ rom on it, i hate the keyboard. i have been trying to force myself to use it more and more, but i keep wanting to go back to one of my captivates and swype....i feel the trial period wont last long now...my cappies are calling my name
[Captivate General] davwman:
Dilli, my exact feeling. That's why when I had ilthe inspire I removed sense completely. Its a beautiful fast phone with launcherpro minus the tiny battery but I could not justify the full retail price.
[Captivate General] di11igaf:
Yup I did the same thing. Instead of wasting my early upgrade on a phone that's hardware is gonna be outdated very(if not already) soon when it seems like this year is gonna bring some crazy phones and cpus and whatnot. I paid the full 450 for it, returned it about a week later and bought the atrix for 400. Despite the whole bootloader issue, the atrix IS without a doubt the fastest phone I've ever used, even if the system is not fully utilizing its dual core yet, which I kinda hope its not cause when it does, its gonna be insane. And running app to qr on the atrix is even almost twice as fast as the inspire, probably 4 times faster than the captivate, plus so far is buttery smooth. The inspire was almost a tradeoff for a little bit of speed but greatly reduced smoothness. Atrix so far has both, plus I actually like the screen a lot.
[Captivate General] ed116:
wow damn, but if anything i can always sell it for more, in canada desire z sells for 400$ plus, captivate.. barley sells and its furstrating since captivate is better in aspects of screen weight and stuff and battery is better!! Inspire is the Desire HD in canada? seriously you guys didnt like that/ that looks like a sick device, anyways might go for a red torch xD sell it and add about 100$ and buy a new iphone4 :p front facing camera <3 :P
[Captivate General] di11igaf:
I would take a captivate or an inspire for that matter any day of the week over an iphone 4. Had one of those too, along with every other iphone and was very involved in the jailbreak scene, up until I tried android. There's no way ill EVER go back to ios. This is my opinion, but ios completely sucks compared to android. You'll be bored with it in a week, even if you jailbreak. I would literally rather have a captivate on stock 2.1 than a jailbroken iphone 4
[Captivate General] ed116:
really? dont get me wrong android is nice, but i like to have that GPS option working on an iphone than not workin on a captivate + i personally dont like the touch buttons :p prefer the one form i9000

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v1ral:
Hello ladies and gents.

I got a quick question, but first a little back story...

I owned a Droid Incredible for a few months already.. *Oct.2010 however it got stolen a month ago.. I have retrieved the phone already.

While I was at my Apartment...my phone fell and it's broke... screen shattered..case dinged up.. and now I have a beat up paper weight..

My local carrier which I bought the phone from are all out...and they asked if I wanted a Fascinate...I like the phone.. but I am so used of the Dinc with so many things I did with it.. I've grown to love it....

My question is this...

Where can I get one..I've looked on Ebay.. I would like at least "like new" condition.

I've google searched and I've came across some for a decent price.. but these online "stores" either have not seller ratings or what ever....

I am no noob at buying stuff from ebay, but the stuff I've bought were either BNIB stuff or some after market hop ups for R/c Cars...

Please point me in the right direction.

I am starting to hate not having a phone to tinker with.

*If this is in the wrong section pls move it to the correct one.kthx.

v1ral
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
eBay is the best place.

Buy from a seller who has more than 50 ratings and you are almost positive to get exactly what you are expecting to get.

They would lose more money by getting a bad rating than they would selling you a messed up product.

That -and- the fact eBay has buyer protection, though it is a pain to work with.

Make sure it has a clean ESN if you are getting used.
