[Epic 4G General] xxmastermindxx:
Call me crazy but I seem to remember that while charging with power off, the batter icon would fill up with green, and the star looking symbol in the middle would be animated and spin around.

My phone doesn't do this anymore, and it looks like its occasionally resetting while powered off recharging. The screen blanks and the battery icon comes back after about 5 seconds. The LED doesn't turn on either. This happens with a fully charged battery or a battery that needs charging.

The phone acts perfectly fine when its on, no random reboots or anything like that, although my battery life has been sucking balls lately, 6-8 hours with moderate use after a full charge.

Any ideas what might be wrong? This happens on 2 different stock batteries, two different brand new Blackberry USB cables (much better quality than cable that came with the phone), plugged into wall charger or PC. Also, if I unplug the cable from the phone, the battery icon stays there unless I battery pull or camera/volume up/power reset.

Edit: I went from 100% battery to 42% battery in about 20 minutes of it being powered off, plugged in, in the state of what I believe to be a charging error that I described above.

Edit 2: This has been reported quite a few times and is a CWM issue, not ACS. I just wasn't using the right search terms last night lol
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Sounds like a problem with your phone..

Also, what star? Lol
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
What recovery are you running, I saw this reported as an issue with CWM 3.0.0.6, but I am running that recovery, along with EB13, and the genocide 0.3a kernel and have no issues, charged my phone with it off last night, no issues.
[Epic 4G General] xxmastermindxx:
Star was the best word to describe it lol, star looking icon that spins clockwise in the middle of the battery while its charging.

I'm running 3.0.0.6 and EB13 too, with ACS kernel. I'm going to try going back to stock and see if that has anything to do with it.
[Epic 4G General] fsc137:
I saw this too.

I've seen both this problem and a similar problem (also reported by others) of the phone freezing with the battery icon in place.

These problems went away after a flash to stock with Odin.

Subsequent re-installation of CW3 did not re-create the problem.
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
This only happens with twilight zone kernel
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
I think this may be a bug on ACS. I have the same problem.

Sent from my Epic running ACS Frozen 1.0
[Epic 4G General] xxmastermindxx:
Well, a stock flash back to EB13 has fixed this problem for me. Going to try reflashing CWM and ACS to see if I get the same error.

Also, seems like that star I was mentioning only pops up right before the charging indicator starts lol, I couldn't remember what this screen normally looks like :p
[Epic 4G General] justlovejoy:
THIS IS WHAT USING THE SEARCH BUTTONS WILL FIND YOU!

For me a similar situation, with a common solution! Thanxz!

[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
I have had an ipad since release. We have used it for school, presentations, documents, email, etc. I can already say it is nothing compared to the xoom.

I've had it less than a day, and I have run into a few quirks. The ipad did too, like wifi dropping on me constantly on release. Anyhow, just sitting here chatting with a friend, browsing the market, internet, xda, etc, I can't help but notice how much better it is than my ipad. Quickly swapping between apps, voice input, etc. I can plug it into the TV and instantly show my wife an article I've found.

Sure the apps aren't there yet, but they will be. The quirks will be fixed, and it can only get better. For all the "I'm taking it back" threads I just don't get it. I'm hooked.

This is the tablet I was looking for.
[Xoom General] bobdude5:
i envy you. I originally was going to wait for the xoom but i got impatient and bought an ipad. Then xoom came out and i sold my ipad and bought it. First day amazed, second annoyed. Im getting ALOT of keyboard lag and I need a good pdf reader. The ones for the phone are not cutting it. Tried ez and repligo both lag like crazy.

Definitely returning this for the xoom for ipad 2. Ipad 2 will be my placeholder until Honeycomb gets more apps and bugs fixed.
[Xoom General] ashura3:
iPad has nothing over the Xoom? Really? Not even a better screen (I would take IPS and much much better viewing angles and color reproduction over higher resolution)? Lighter weight? Thinner body? Better, more diverse accessories? And that's not even mentioning the better app store at launch which you just handwaved away but a lot of us consider to be pretty important.

It's one thing to be a fan of the Xoom (which I am). I'll even admit that I do have an anti-Apple bias and that I'll probably never purchase an Apple product. But it's another to completely toss all objectivity out the window and just become a cheerleader for a product that so obviously isn't perfect.

It's not as if the benefits I listed above are limited to Apple. Samsung's new Honeycomb tablet is taking care of 3, potentially 4, things from that list. It'll have a lighter weight than even the iPad 2, a thinner body than even the iPad 1 and Xoom, all while having pretty much the same internals as the Xoom. It also might have a better screen (still looking into this). And the delayed release of the product after the release of the SDK means launch customers will have a lot more apps available to them.

Liking a device doesn't mean you have to be blind to it's shortcomings.

EDIT: I just noticed that most of my recent posts are criticisms of the Xoom and I want to clarify. I'm not trying to bash the product. I just think we should be holding Honeycomb tablet makers to, at the bare minimum, the standards that Apple has set with its wildly successful iPad. Clearly that's being done with some factors. Xoom has more connectivity options, a higher resolution screen, an OS that's better suited for tablet work and productivity, etc. But it's obviously not being done with others, especially screen quality which is a huge HUGE deal with tablets, and I don't think Honeycomb tablet manufacturers should get a pass on that.
[Xoom General] srt4b:
You plug your tablet into a tv to show her an article?
[Xoom General] lstrike:
I own both as well and I love the potential here but wouldn't say that the I pad 1 has nothing on the xoom. The screen is better as mentioned before. Colors and viewing angles. Also overall OS smoothness. The ipad is silky smooth everywhere. The Xoom is smooth sometime then it gets choppy. Right now that is my biggest disappointment. I mean functionally it is fine the the chop gets a little annoying tbh.

On the ipad for example I neverrrrr had a case of music coming in and out while I surfed the web or download files using filer. On this device I randomly get delays in sound when I perform other tasks. Like ashura3 mentioned not to hate on the xoom after all I actually have one and I am going to keep it for sure but being objective the ipad is pretty slick in what it actually does. And insult to injury google and Motorola have had alot of time to look at what apple did before shipping this device. We are comparing the almost 1 year old device on top of that all the early reports and videos I watched and read about yesterday on the ipad show an extremely fast polished ipad2.

I understand its limited in certain aspect but take like functions or apps and compare how the work and objectively it is hard to say the I pad has nothing on the xoom.
[Xoom General] lstrike:
If I supply is correct the display is a 16bit tft. That would explain the differences I see when looking at the two and comparing the IPS 32bit display on the ipad. All the other downsides of the Xoom can be easily addressed but like the lack of SD or 4g upgrade on the ipad, there is no way the xoom screen will be as nice unfortunately. It isn't a terrible screen but there is a difference and it is pretty obvious to everyone I nave showed both devices to.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
But the iPad 2 has a magnetic dust cover!!!!
[Xoom General] mgerbasio:
I have an ipad and just got the Xoom. The Xoom is certainly a nice device, I don't think the screen is so bad but it isn't IPS.

I think Motorola blew it big time although I hope they do succeed. They should have released the wifi version before Apple announced the ipad 2 event. As a consumer that just wants a wifi tablet, are you really going to spend $800 on a Xoom or $500 (less for a ipad 1) for a ipad? Even if both are the same price, how many people do you think are going to buy the Xoom over an ipad? Let's hope the Xoom does better than the Zune.

The whole user experience of the Xoom isn't nearly as good as what iOS offers. I'm keeping my Xoom as I would rather have Android than Apple (sd slot, usb and I like the file system better for my field work). If Apple had released a 2x res screen with sd slot as some rumors had mentioned, I would have stuck with iOS.

Long term, Android has a good shot but I don't see the Xoom making a dent getting Apple's market share. The cost, hardware and software don't surpass the Apple user experience. There is no compelling reason to switch from iOS or choose Android unless you're a fan of the platform.

I don't have an iphone nor a Mac so no fanboy here but you can't beat the ipod and the ipad is getting to be just as iconic. Jha has done a good job but I think he completely underestimates what Apple is in the market to think that the Xoom is going to compete against the ipad at the same cost.
[Xoom General] Morkai Almandragon:
google voice... the ipad has it...
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Ehhhh.... this is what were supposed to do. Early adopters are basically testers, if you guys see anything you don't like, email google and suggest them. You guys are doing a great job of testing out the device. Also, in order for android tablet apps to increase in numbers fast, there's gotta be customers for developers to sell to right? I purchased a xoom to fill my needs, it does get laggy sometimes but it isnt such a dealbreaker to me right now. Looking at the I pad 1 or 2 it doesn't matter. It's still the same ****ty grids of icons from page to page. But I,too, really think motorola should just release the damn wifi version before the I pad 2 takes a whole bunch of customers.
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
My emphasis was more on the software experience rather than hardware. I don't see how iOS is going to hold its own once Honeycomb has its kinks worked out. The user experience is just that superior to the iOS grid of icons.

The xoom isn't that special for hardware. Every few months something faster or thinner or brighter is going to come along, but I don't see Apple drastically changing their operating system anytime soon and I think Honeycomb itself is going to be the real threat.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
AMEN to that! I was just thinking that this morning... This isn't really a "war" between Apple and non-Apple. It's about user experience, needs etc. Since hardware is always obsolete the moment you leave the store (or click check out) the software is the main determinant. Unfortunately, it looks bad right now for HC. But the more I see users post their homescreens with all the wild widgets and customization going on the more I feel "home". I LOVE the apps on the iPad and the screen (I'm playing with a coworker's iPad today) but the user experience is reminiscent of my iPhone...
[Xoom General] parrotheadmjb:
Just out of curiousity, does anyone know what the Frequency Response is on the Xoom, I can't find it listed anywhere in the specifications. I know its listed for the iPad. I would like to know what it is on the Xoom though.

Anyone?
[Xoom General] fatimusprime:
Being an owner of both, I have to say that the iPad has the luxury of being on the market for a whole year. Last April, iPad was in the same position as a Xoom is today with the uncertainty, bugs and the like. Compairing to Xoom today, its not really in that bad of a position. My Xoom has already replaced my ipad and I'm super excited to see where this thing can go.
[Xoom General] volley6870:
I've had my Xoom since launch, and have not had a single issue of lag, or sound problems. Everything has ran very smoothly... Not a android or apple fanboy, I've used them all, i just like the notification system and widgets on honeycomb much better than the ipad.

Try Chomp SMS from the market, or remove the -'s from each phone number in your contacts.

did you have it working on the official Froyo?

I've not had a problem with MMS on any froyo ROM since i removed the -'s as Mannymal mentioned above.
[Vibrant General] klege:
MMS

change your contacts format from (xxx) xxx-xxxx to plain xxxxxxxxxx.

that did the trick for me.

If you don't want to do it yourself, there is Contacts Clean-up. You find it on the market. Select format +xxyyyzzzzzzz and apply it to all your contacts.

hope it helps!:D
[Vibrant General] slackerlack:
I have had off and on problems with this. It seems if you take the +1 off the number, sometimes that works. You have to edit the number in the contacts.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuarkGluonSoup:
I had always thought that I897 was captivate, and I9000 was all other Galaxy S phones. But I have a captivate that lists its "model number" as GT-I9000, and see here that captivate users are installing I9000 ROMs. Am I wrong about the difference?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
Not development.

Captivate = i897

Galaxy S = i9000
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
as mikey said, this isn't development related.

you are merely installing i9000 ROM's with reoriented kernels.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanHacker:
I've noticed something around here at XDA that is really kind of odd to me. Whenever a new guy comes here and posts a thread not knowing that it isn't the right thread to post on. There's always the "too cool" attitude thrown out by a few. I know that XDA is here to help others and think that maybe instead of posting smartass replies that maybe an answer to the question and a point in the right direction would be the best thing to help a noob out. I've learned more from the great guys here at XDA (ADAMHOLDEN85, MIKEYMIKE01, KIZZMIAZZ, ZELENDEL, EXTREMEKILLA09, TSACHI) from their positive attitudes and direction than I've learned from any other forum. Keep it welcome here guys.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bay_wolf:
^ Amen to that!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
yeah, for real, it only takes one guy to correct the miss placed thread and a mod to move it. and you can correct a person and be helpful at the same time.

to the op, if the captivate is saying gt -i9000 on a splash screen on startup or on your computer when plugged in to usb then it is a modded i9000 kernel installed, this is very common because the source code for the i9000 was realeased long before the captivate and things like overclock and color fixes could be baked in. a lack of source on the captivate meant that either you ran 2.1, ran 2.2 basically stock or you used an i9000 kernel to get all the good stuff. if it says i9000 in about phone or in apps then you have an i9000 rom and the build.prop was not changed.

to be clear the att captivate is the i897, the armani is the i9010 the rogers is the i896 and the chinese version is the i9088. the i897 and i896 are identical aside from the rom, the armani has a different battery door and maybe darker plastic, i haven't seen one up close. the chinese version may have other difference like less ram.

the i9000 is sold in many countries and is the real galaxy s. it has a forward facing camera. it is sold in many countries and has several versions including the i9000m and i9000b, the b has an antenna to pickup live digital hd tv and is sold in brazil

the i500 is the fascinate and the mezmerize in the us and is cdma.

the t959 is the vibrant in the us and the t959d is the facinate in canada. these are the closest relatives to the captivates but look more like a i9000.

then there is the epic, i dont remember the model of it but it has a forward facing camera and a slide out keyboard. it is cdma and i think do to the stock software, that it is an epic piece of crap!

there are others now such as the nexus s i9020 which is a google dev phone and has aosp gingerbread, and the indulge which isn't quite a galaxy s but does have the hummingbird chip and adds a keyboard and lte data network

Longer story short...I resorted to learning by a q&a session with one of the nicer devs. And by the end of a couple pm's back and forth, I was flashing my first rom with no problems.
