AMOLED screens are well known to get "burn-in". Its not unheard of at all. Check wikipedia or just search google for more info.
[Epic 4G General] tokyomonster:
This. Had the same issue (but worse) on my Nexus One. It annoyed me, but not enough to go through the hassle of swapping it out. I'm also beginning to see some on my Epic 4G

[Nook Color General] Eddog4DROID:
I have a 2GB MicroSD card. What can I use with one this small for rooting this thing? I know I should not use it to boot Honeycomb or Froyo. But would it be adequate to use when rooting with Auto Nooter or as a restore image or for CWM or anything else?
[Nook Color General] sidenine:
Yes, you can use it for auto-nooter, etc. I have been using a 2GB card for the last month, and while it does fill up fast (especially with multiple nandroid backups), it is perfectly usable for the "easier" tasks on the NC. I use it for nandroid backups, Titanium Backup, and storing ePub books. Each of my nandroid's takes about 500MB, and I have 2 of them, so that's half the card's space right there (at about 1GB). Add on all the rest and I have about 500MB free.

Like I said, it fills up fast, but is adequate. I just picked up a 16GB card last weekend for the "fun" stuff, like HC, CM7, etc.

[EVO 4G General] mhoffman54:
Last night I picked up a wireless ethernet bridge and hooked it up to my bluray player and xbox. Performance wise I'm actually pretty impressed. On 3g it streamed movies to my bluray flawlessly, and xbox live runs pretty well too. (Other than being disconnected every time I get a text or a phone call). On 4g xbox live runs damn near perfect, constant 3 bars with no lag on COD Black Ops.

Streaming movies to my bluray ate up a LOT of data. I burned through 750 megs in a few short hours. But xbox live barely uses any. A full game of Black Ops used maybe 1.5 megs at most, peaking at like 30-40 kbps.

I wouldn't mind using this fairly consistently, but there are some people out there claiming that Sprint will surely catch you and cancel your plan. Some people even claim that it could end up costing you thousands of dollars! I understand that this is against Sprints contract agreement, but this seems pretty ridiculous to me..

All I've read is speculation, but has anyone actually been caught? If so, what happened? Ive read that they can charge you for all the extra data you use, add the $30 hotspot to your plan without telling you, and even cancel you. I'm also curious about the unlimited data caps. Does Sprint do this? I read in a forum somewhere that some dude uses 30 gb a month playing on xbox live and has never been caught or charged anything extra!

Also, does it make any difference whether I'm on 3g or 4g? I know 4g uses Clear's network. How much control/access does Sprint have over your usage with them? If there is a real risk of getting caught, would it be safer to stick with 4g?
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
peeps got caught using too much roaming, canceled their acct, no etf. if your on sprint network or 4g your in the clear
[EVO 4G General] Bigjim1488:
I don't know personally anyone that has gotten caught. I am sure it has happened if you go over the 5gb mark monthly. As for the fellow saying that he does 30gb a month playing xbox I would say he is full of BS. Sprint gets wise once you start blowing through your internet use and if they didn't say you were teathering they would contact you letting you know to either cut down your use or get booted off their network.

[EVO 4G General] mdubs:
Geeeawwwd I wish I got 4g worth a crap at my house!

I would love to cancel my cable internet and just lash this beast to the 'puter for internet :(
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
think it's coincidence that 4g doesn't work well indoors?, sprint knew
[EVO 4G General] bwcorvus:
As others have said it has been removed now. If you listen to the latest commercial it even says, "unlimited is truly unlimited we don't have a cap like other networks"
[EVO 4G General] notasimpleway:
Yea. Unlimited is unlimited. I stream movies and download ROMs on my phone. I use a ton of data on just my phone. Not tethering. I use well over 5 gigs. And have for 2 years. Sprint won't do anything. Unlimited is unlimited. And we pay 10 bucks more for our already unlimited data. So, yea, I am using what I pay for. Twice.

Sent from my iPhone with the bigger Gee Bees.
[EVO 4G General] blackroseMD1:
I use 30+ GB of 3G a month through tethering to my laptop and watching Netflix on Xbox Live. Haven't heard a peep from Sprint. I'm sure they know I'm tethering, but unlimited means unlimited. If they don't like it, they can terminate my contract.

[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Maybe I'm missing something.... how did you stream blu ray movies from your Evo to your blu ray player?
[EVO 4G General] abrigham:
At the beginning of the post, he said he picked up an Ethernet bridge. This basically is a device that you attach Ethernet devices to and it then connects those devices to a wireless signal (i.e. from a wireless access point or router, or in this case the EVO in HotSpot mode). There are also some Blu-ray players that have wireless built in and there are, of course, wifi adapters for XBox as well.
[EVO 4G General] mhoffman54:
To be specific, I bought a Tenda W150M Portable Wireless AP/Router.

$30 at MicroCenter. I didn't mind buying it because its a 5-in-1 device (AP, Client/AP, Wireless Router, WDS+AP, WISP), so when and if I decide to reactivate my Qwest DSL, I can use it as a range extender so I can pick up my WiFi out in the garage. It's usb powered and even has a mode button on the side so I can quickly switch between modes without having to adjust it via ethernet. $30 investment that does the job of both the $80 Sony BluRay wireless adapter and $100 xbox wireless adapter.
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
Awesome! I'm going to microcenter tomorrow.
[EVO 4G General] Systemfraud:
My friend uses his 3G as his primary source of internet and has been for about 8-9 months now, as posted earlier, unlimited is unlimited. You get what you pay for. Although roaming will surely get you kicked off if not worse.
[EVO 4G General] AbsolutZeroGI:
I use it every now and again for streaming hulu on my computer and when my 3 inconsiderate roommates are downloading torrents while I'm trying to do school work, I've used 16GB since I started service in January, no throttle, no complaining from Sprint and no getting caught.

My buddy is a Sprint store worker and he even knows about what I do, he doesn't care.

I wanna try it with my Xbox, but I don't have a wireless adapter so I don't know how.

PS If anyone wants to explain how it's done, PM me :D
[EVO 4G General] mhoffman54:
After a few games the lag from 3g got kind of annoying. Games were playable, but a little jerky, especially when **** got hectic. My xbox is in the basement, and I got no 4g down here whatsoever, so I put my phone in the living room directly upstairs. This worked, but in between games my ADD kicks in and I like to browse the web/text while I wait for the next game.

After a little searching I found this little trick in the Epic forums. It basically sets the lowest signal strength that your phone will actually use for 4g. The lowest is -110, and at that it still works pretty good. So now with a working 4g signal I was ready to roll, but still every 3rd game or so I would get the stupid lag again! So (and I know this sounds incredibly ghetto) I took a paper plate and completely wrapped it up in tin foil. 3 layers, to be exact. I turn on my 4g and my wireless tether, set my phone in the middle of my foil satellite dish, and no more lag!!! This morning I couldn't get 4g in the basement at all.. Now I'm rockin 2-3 bars!!!! Give this a shot and find yourself a cheap bridge like I did and you should be all set!!
[EVO 4G General] ccossin:
I just tried the "paper plate satellite dish." I can't believe it works. I'm only getting 1 bar, but since I wasn't getting any 4g before that's pretty darn good.

This has been a telepathic transmission from the Outer Limits.

[Streak 5 Accessories] p51d007:
Just got one, 10 bucks on Amazon. Vertical soft case, velcro closure, belt loop

to secure it to your belt. It is a loop, not a clip, so once it is on your belt, it's there til you take your belt off.

If you have a "naked" streak, it slips right in and out. If you have the otterbox

impact or defender case, it will go in and out with some tugging. I took the rubber off of my defender, which just gives you the plastic shell similar to the commuter, and it will slip in and out without any issues.

I've had trouble with the belt clip on my defender...only that if I am going down

steps quickly, sometimes the bouncing will cause the streak to pop out of its case.

That is why I looked for an alternative. So far, this one works perfectly. For work, I'll leave the defender case off, and after hours, just use the impact and slip it in and out of my pants.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FreddieP:
Hi,

I recently started trying out new ROMs and am wondering if I could divorce myself from the PC if I performed an Odin 1-click restore to stock then did a Nandroid backup of that installation.

Then in the future would restoring to stock via the Nandroid backup of stock be equivalent of the Odin 1-click?

Then I could flash ROMs w/o any connection to PC.

Thanks much for sharing,

Fred
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
no, cwm does not backup kernel or modem, so if you were to flash a 2.2 ROM and try to restore to 2.1 ROM, you'd be running a 2.2 kernel with 2.1 ROM and be stuck in a recovery bootloop.

ODIN one-click/heimdall or a pre-packaged CWM flashable zip of stock are really your only options. nandroid is mostly a bust on our devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FreddieP:

Rom manager says there is an update available. I'm on ice glacier 1.6. Is it ok to update to this latest version?

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jggimi:
ROM Manager updates are fine. ClockworkMod Recovery image updates, however, matter very, very much. Since ROM Manager is used to install ClockworkMod Recovery, some people confuse the two. CWM Recovery is that stand alone program you boot into to do a Nandroid backup or restore, or to install a ROM.

Froyo-based ROMs, including Iced Glacier, must use a 2.x version of CWM Recovery. Gingerbread-based ROMs, like CM7, must use a 3.x version of CWM Recovery.

There is a special version of CWM Recovery called "3.0.0.6" that can manage both Froyo and Gingerbread ROMs. You can find threads on it in the Development sub forum.

hi

here is a service manual for the I9000. the other service manuals which were posted were i-9000B service manuals (samfirmware, you can see it on the cover.pdf ). maybe somebody wants to order spare parts or sth else there are some differences..

http://www.multiupload.com/0DRVARKC16

maybe somebody knows why the i9000B has an additional antenna? you can see it on the explosion view. the i9000 has no antenna (right side view from back) but the i9000B has one ?!

edit: ok maybe for the 3G support for North America ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ekuber:
The i9000B has Digital TV support. The extensible antenna is for that.

The Latin American version of the Galaxy Tab has the same feature (plus standard analogic TV support), so it too has an antenna.

A japanese rock garden just in your pocket. To relax and meditate creating the beautiful symbolic representations of natural landscapes on your device

The japanese rock gardens or "dry landscape" gardens, often called "Zen gardens" were influenced mainly by Zen Buddhism and can be found at Zen temples of meditation. Though each garden is different in its composition, they mostly use rock groupings and shrubs to represent a classic scene of mountains, valleys and waterfalls taken from chinese (and later also japanese) landscape painting. Now you can have these symbolic representations of natural landscapes using stone arrangements and sand on your mobile.

You can download a freeware "lite" version, while if you want to upgrade to the "pro" version you have nothing else to do than sending me a small donation to say "thank you", and i'll send you the cab via mail.

Hi I believe I traced the problem with the proximity sensor not working to Handcent SMS. On two separate Atrixes, as soon as I uninstalled Handcent and rebooted the phone the problem went away and stayed away.

Been screwing around with settings all morning to no avail, discovered that the phone will only work with bluetooth device connected. without bluetooth the device goes dark, cannot wake up, have to hard reboot, with bluetooth and volume button awaken enabled, it performs normally, so possible connection to issues in post with proximity but with a bluetooth twist...:confused:

Hi all,

I just got the epic last week and updated to froyo via samsung website then did the 1click root & recovery v2.5.5. Everything was fine except for gps, so I did the method about getting the msl #. After that it said to reset. After the reset it messed everything up. It went back to factory settings but was still rooted. (I thought I did a back up but did not)

I just want to unroot the phone and bring it back to regular froyo because a lot of apps that I had before can not be found on the market. I am a total noob and have been searching for the past 5 hrs and cant figure it out.

[HTC Inspire 4G] smalis:
I am rooted and ROM's with the hack kit and inspired_dhd_vfr series, and all is well.

Except...

I installed WunderRadio in order to listen to my Sirius account, but when I tried to log in to Sirius within the Wunder app, it told me I need to get the Flash player. The message directed me to the market link for com.adobe.flashplayer, but said I do not have permission to go there. So, I went to the market on the Desire and installed Flash 10.1, but that did not change the result.

I do have WunderRadio happily playing my Sirius account on my rooted G-Tab, so this apparently has something to do with running Flash on the Desire within the inspired_dhd_vfr series ROM.

Adobe's web site says I am running Flash 10.1.106.16, so this is puzzling.
