Apparently I like warming up old, cold threads :D

I am also thinking about the "official" Motorola BT keyboard. I played with it for a few minutes in the Verizon store and I liked it (minus the price tag). I was wondering if it has any option to be charged or connected to a power source in any way or if it runs on batteries exclusively. My ultimate goal is to design my own portfolio that I can use with the keyboard.
[Xoom Accessories] Mayday607:
I have the Motorola ARTIX / XOOM bluetooth keyboard. I really like it. It comes in handy when you need to type out a long email. I really like the shortcut buttons, it has them for Gmail, Browser, Contacts, Messaging (doesn't work on the XOOM), Search, Home, Menu and Music. It also has volume controls, stop, play and track forward / back buttons. It is a little laggy, but I figure that's just because it's bluetooth. It takes 2 AA batteries, and I don't think that you can use anything else, no place to plug in a charger or anything. The more I use it the more I like it actually. The hard part is shelling out $70 for it.
[Xoom Accessories] myv6mustang:
i have the keyboard. The only lag I expierence is when typing on forums. For email and talk it is very capable. Also very light and compact. Would purchase again. I could do up a review when I get home.
[Xoom Accessories] jdavet:
A review would be much appreciated :-) the two things stopping me from buying it are 1. How portable it is and 2. If its worth the price tag
[Xoom Accessories] diaa08:
I owned and returned it.

portability was decent, largeish as far as BT keyboards go but nothing major.

price is more than double other similar keyboards, but it has the dedicated keys, which you might like

quality I found to be on the cheapish side, given the premium price.
[XPERIA X8 General] Defenistrator:
I installed floyo 0.12 on my X8 and flash doesnt work. I know flash 10.1 cannot be supported by the x8's hardware but i read somewhere that something called "flash lite" would? However i can't find it anywhere, not the market(which i did see on there a few months ago but hadn't rooted then) or the web.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkagarwal:
Hi All,

I have SGS I 9000 in Germany. Kies 2.0 is offering the upgrade, but as soon I start the upgrade, it abruptly terminates and says connection with the device is lost.

I have tried it on three different laptops, so looks like the problem is with phone.

However, I have never rooted my phone or installed custom thing. I am currently on Froyo 2.2. Build No is FROYO.XXJPO

can anyone tell what is going wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Firewall or internet connection first culprits .

next is bad USB connection .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Hey,

First: Check if you use the USB port which is directly at the mainboard (often not this which are in front of the PC)

If doesn't work yet, try to un- und later reinstall Kies.

If yes and still longer doesn't work, I think it's the best to start flashing via Odin.

It's easy and fast:

1)Download Odin and Fimware

2)Put FW-files in Odin PDA: (if 3 files [PDA:code-file,Phone:modem-file,CSC:csc-file]

with .pit-file and repartition ckecked - if there is only 1 file,

put this PDA and don't use .pit-file and repartition)

3)Put Battery off, then put sgs in Download-mode (Vol-,Homebutton and then Powerbutton)

4)Connect to PC -> when you see a yellow box in odin - it's added

5)Start flashing and wait until "Pass" (in green) is written and the Phone reboots

FINISHED

The Firmwares you get from samfirmware.com

Good Luck ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkagarwal:
no success yet

hi

no success yet, with un installing and reinstalling kies.

as also mentioned earlier, i have tried it on three different laptops.

i am not sure about Odin, Frankly speaking, i am very naive at such things.

definitely looks like a problem with phone. May be some app is not letting it happen.

this is because, phone does gets connected to kies, but once i start the update, it terminates the connection. Should I remove the external memory card???
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Try but I think that it won't wotk, too.

Checked the thing with Usb-ports?

Oh I also get another idea:

Maybe your download-mode doesn't work and so the phone only dosconnect as going into it.

So try if it works.

- Shut down

- Press Volume down, Homebutton and then the Powerbutton pressed.

If you don't see the yellow (with a working android sign) screen after 2 or 3 seconds, it seems to be the reason for it.

If this is, you must google for "3 button mode galaxy s doesn't work"

nut this is a lot more complicate then flashing via odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkagarwal:
nops USB also did not work

Neh...USB thing also didnt work out...now i ll try removing the external memory.

Hope it works.

Another thing, back in Nov I was able to update to 2.2 from 2.1.

so puzzled, that why this time its giving this error :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Yeah but sometimes something runs wrong and we don't knoe what.

That's the a bad point on a big configuratable system like android ;)

Good luck at all ;)

Hi,

I live in germany too, but I'm on darkys v9.3 so I won't update via KIES but I would like to know what kind of firmware it is. Is it jpy, js2 or js5? Or even something different. Please let me know.

And by the way try the download mode mentioned above.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Why you don't have a look at hos forum here? ;)

9.2 was JPY and 9.3 is based on JS5.

The next version will based on Gingerbread.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXNCHAMPXx:
No I mean what the official firmware from Samung is called.

Not darkys v9.3 ;)

I know that it is based on js5^^

finally able to update

yey!!! finally was able to update to 2.2.1 and its damn fast.

interestingly I did not do anything extra (I was out of ideas :) )

but the lesson learnt is that the way kies is...its so buggy..jst keep on trying and trying...sometime or other you ll get lucky.

[Kyocera Zio M6000] z3r0t0l0rEnCe:
I just bought the premium version of Clockwork Recovery. Just before that I ran the "fix permissions" as it was my understanding its supposed to help fix apps from "force close". It instructed me to reboot and now its stuck at the Kyocera boot logo with...

[Kyocera Zio M6000] z3r0t0l0rEnCe:
Yeah I was able to get it back. But now I have a triangle in the status bar and don't know what that is. I thought it was that I needed to *228 my phone but it won't do it.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] tweaver:
I accidentally did the same thing today and have no idea to fix it. could you please help me out, im new to all of this.

Nevermind i figured out how to fix it
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
You all didnt read my clockwork recovery thread posted further up on this sub forum.....

Please read it.

That recovery image doesnt work. Flat out. Im trying to get a hold of Koush to remove it from the rom manager list, but hes hard to get a hold of on the weekdays.

You need to flash your original recovery back to the recovery partition through fastboot in order to "unbrick" your phone.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] z3r0t0l0rEnCe:
Well I got my phone back working again. The MIN, SID and one other part of the phone was reset! How this happened don't know. Its all fixed now but my signal strengh sucks now.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Spz0:
It happened because the image doesn't work - and if you would have read my thread on clockworkmod recovery, you would have known that and not borked ur recovery.

You guys need to read threads before going all cowboy n ****.

If you have a copy of your stock recovery image (which you should have all your images backed up if you're flashing different images to your phones), you need to flash that to your recovery partition in order to fix your issue.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Sorry_8D:
This literally made me LOL.

I'm sorry but rofl, I'm being safe since Rom Manager bricked my phone last October.

I think he needs to change the thread title to something more appropriate like " Help,

while using Clockwork Recovery and now I Bricked my phone! "

Or "Help, I didn't bother to research and bricked my phone"

[Vibrant General] cezzarmicu:
I have seen a few posts about asking for the difference between android 2.2 and 2.2.1 and as I have tried both, here is my observation:

2.2.1

(using darky's 9.3, ported by jellette):

(+)Able to have different lock screen and home screen wallpapers

(+)Both lock and unlock sounds work (when using Samsung/glass unlock)

(+)Calendar now able to show facebook calendar entries by ticking my calendar on the calendar menu

(+)I9000 camera interface (personal preference, also I have tried using the i9000 camera apk on the 2.2 ROMs and it broke the HD recording, I haven't tried it yet though on all the 2.2 ROMs out there)

(+)Seemingly faster UI interface

(+)Seemingly faster browser speeds

(-)Music playback pop/stutter when using voodoo sound-enabled kernels (I tried both overstock and cwk) - NO popping with Sweet honey, so not 2.2.1-related issue

(-)Haven't personally tried this one yet but others are reporting that mobile AP is not working with Darky's 9.3 (not sure if it's the same case with the other 2.2.1 ROMs)

2.2

:

(+)No music playback stutter/pop when using voodoo sound-enabled kernels

(-)Unable to show facebook calendar entries

(-)the rest of the stuff under the (+)side of 2.2.1

Please feel free to comment or correct me or leave your own observations ;)
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
I know my calendar shows facebook events, is that different than the calendar entries you're talking about? I'm on bionix 1.3, but all the team whiskey froyo builds have had it.
[Vibrant General] Sdobron:
I think the mobile AP is a kernel issue, not darky's rom.
[Vibrant General] cezzarmicu:
Really? Mine didn't show up my facebook events when I used bionix 1.2 and trigger 2.7.1. I also have seen others report the same issue with 2.2 from other forums.

Thanks for the feedback
[Vibrant General] cezzarmicu:
I'll try the mobile AP out eventually when I have a wifi-capable laptop with me. I'm using overstock with darky's 9.3
[Vibrant General] deadpass:
Yep, if you goto calendar, settings, calendar sync Under manage accounts should be your facebook account. Here's a screen shot of a fb event I'm attending tomorrow night

[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
Just watched a demo of the MOTO Atrix dual core....wow the scrolling is horrible. Side by side with the Epic, the differences are HUGE! It's hard not to smile knowing that the EPIC still dominates even dual core offerings. :D

I noticed it's an ATT "4G" phone, so after going to ATT site and clicking their 4G link, it took me to a map of blue colored coverage, which oddly enough looks EXACTLY like their 3G coverage. Upon further examination, that's EXACTLY what they show you, the 3G coverage. There are but a small handful of cities that actually implement TMOs HSPA+ '4G'. Just like apple, att using their 'full of ****' marketing practices. It's really sad how much $ apple and att has made selling inferior hardware and service for twice that of which I pay for the Epic on Sprint.

I have 2 Epics, with unlimited everything (except the landline 1500min pool), and both phones plans combined is cheaper than 1 iphone with unlimited everything, except the 4GB worth of data. And that's 3G data!

Man that's so sad. I can't believe how many fools there are out there.

Samsung can't get Froyo right to save their life, but even the Eclair Epic is a better choice than the Atrix.

[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
My friend who I have known for 8 years bought the Atrix with the Dock and everything spending $500+. Personally, I would have not invested so much in a device that is not going to easy to make custom kernel's for. Matter of fact, its a locked boot loader which means you are screwed. Even Cyanogen himself said today that he would support the device had it not been for that fact. Still, its kinda cool, but makes developing for it a lot ( LOT ) harder than it should be.

Yet they make the XOOM developer friendly. Go figure, why would they not choose this with the phone? Do we have the provider to blame? Is it what they want for their phone systems, or are we just being put to a test to see how far developers can push the envelope with the newest phones to make custom roms/kernels?
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
Not the first moto device with a locked boot loader, anything and everything is hackable. Period.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
XOOM is a "flagship device" all of google's flagship devices are the first to ship with the OS and are VERY developer friendly so far the list is G1,Droid,Nexus 1, Nexus S, XOOM
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
Honestly, I can not stand AT&T. They have the same pricing as Verizon, yet they're inferior (network wise) to Sprint. The only reason they had a chance in the mobile market industry is because of the iPhone (which I still prefer Android over).

Now that Verizon has iPhone, ATT will probably be bought out by another carrier, or something weird.
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
LOL -- ATT....did someone just defend ATTs service???

Sprint's CLEAR division has LTE in Phoenix running 100Mb down and peak 47Mb uploads.........ATT probably runs their whole network off of one of the LTE connections.

There will always be someone who lives in a dead zone. WiMax ins't there yet, but between Sprint and Verizon's networks, Phoenix couldn't be covered any better. Roms allow for forced roam, which I had on my WinMo 6.5 phone.....and could switch between networks and roam 3G if I had a Sprint issue. It made for the most robust phone I've ever seen anyone in possession of (TP2 was quad band).
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
Their 'enhanced' 3G is quite fast....Got over 5Mb on my sisters Samsung Tab sitting 100ft in front of the tower....2Mb up. Damn't Sprint, unlock our WiMax UPLOAD already.......bandwidth is clearly available up and down, it won't do jack to the network if they let us full duplex. I mean, it's a phone..... I couldn't imagine FB pic uploads swamping the network with just a fraction of the HD YouTube streaming :confused:
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Fck att,i hope they go under.Their costumer support is the worst,when I had iphone 3gs they acted like they were doing me a favor by me staying with them,lol.

I had tmobile and sprint since then and both of these carriers are light years ahead in terms of everything,dont know about verizon but I havent heard nothing bad about them.
[Epic 4G General] brian2220:
sprints customer service in stores sucks big time **** and thats another reason why i left.

some of the employees are just braindead and dont what is right or left

att and verizon are the best right now and because they know what they are doing and thats why they are so big

sprints barely getting its stupid company ass back in gear after all the years it was behind and watch it fall back down soon :p
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Almost all store employees are dumb at any carrier.

What counts for sprint and tmobile is that they dont disconnect your service if you dont pay wkthing 2-3 days.I can be 2 weeks late with sprint and not get charged extra and not even have a warning from sprint.

Plus on sprint and tmobile I can download 80gb of movies a month,they dont have data cap.So if you use your phone as your primary internet then tmo and sprint is only choices.

I just wish I dint leave tmobile for sprint because speed was way faster on tmobile,and my promised sprint's 4g never came.

Obviously the Dual Core has no affect on the graphics......it scrolls as fast as the epic, just far choppier.
[Epic 4G General] knyque:
Yup, I don't know if the Atrix has a GPU, but that's one of the reasons that the Epic has nice graphics, it has a very good GPU. A CPU by itself, or a CPU+poor GPU can't handle graphics well, so you will get choppy scrolling, etc.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Every SOC has a GPU, in fact there are 8 cores in the GPU in the Tegra2 if I'm not mistaken, however since android isn't optimized for dual cores the single Hummingbird Processor will be pretty close if not better performance wise until that happens.
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
Which is why it's pointless to get a dual core device right now. Multicore CPUs have been out now over 6 years, and still most software gets zero benefit from it. It's why I vote for faster single core units, something we can actually benefit from.

Yes, but easy to re-flash.

Hi,

Yes and it is recommended to do task29 if you are changing to another rom or want to do clean install. When you do the update it is not needed.

So unlike flashing WinMo, in Android we do Task29 when changing roms. TnX for the help
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] h.nocturna:
It's honestly not *needed* 90% of the time. But for the few occasions where the ROM just isn't working right, then yeah, go ahead and do the task29.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MrCrix:
Especially people who only flash a ROM every now and then should take the one minutes it takes to apply Task 29 in my opinion, because it can save you from a lot of hassle later on.

I basically do it before *almost* every flash just to be on the save side.
