im running mikfroyo v4.5, i can get it to connect but it keeps say limited or no connectivity and wont work
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Have you checked all of the settings in the wireless tether app? Are you using wifi encryption, and/or access control? If you have access control enabled, you need to 'accept' your computer for it to work, there is a box you need to check, with the ip address of your computer labled there. If you don't check that box, then you'll get your problem (that's only if you have access control enabled) Otherwise, I'd suggest changing the channel to channel 1, if it isn't already set on 1. If that still fails, I would try a different version of wireless tether. I don't have a link handy, but if you google it, you should find it. There are many different versions, and some don't seem to work correctly on certain Evos for one reason or another. Good luck sir.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh030181:
yea i did all that, guess ill have to look around for another one to get it to work, does mikfroyo have the hacked hotspot, and if hot spot is hacked why do people still use wireless tether
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I am pretty sure MikFroyo has the hacked hotspot. The reason that people use wireless tether (imo) is because 1) it works with 4g, as the hacked hotspot only works on 3g. 2) has more settings and is more easily customizeable. 3) usually seems more reliable (apparently not for you, unfortunately) So I guess if you dont have 4g in your area, or don't use 4g, then the hacked hotspot should work fine for you. I'll see if I can find the link with the different wireless tether apk downloads.

EDIT: here you go. All versions. http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

I have the Customized Nookie Froyo found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922324

I downloaded Amazon's Kindle app and it won't sync with a free book I tried to get. I uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled the app figuring it was worth a shot but that didn't work.

All the other apps I've tried appear to be working correctly.

Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] time pilot aka:
Do you have an SD card inserted? I noticed I can't get Kindle to sync or download books if the SD is unmounted or if there isn't one. The App must download books to SD instead of internal memory (kind of annoying considering how tiny books are...going to try tricking it into downloading to internal by creating a symlink)
[Nook Color General] amstarshine:
Yes, the SD is inserted. The OS is running off the SD card and there appears to be plenty of memory. I'll have to double check that when I get home though.
[Nook Color General] Eddog4DROID:
I had a similar problem to this. Sync would not bring up my books. Then in the menu I found "Archived items" and all of my books were there then I was able to (re)download them and that brought hem into the main section in the Kindle app.
[Nook Color General] amstarshine:
This is going to sound silly but how do you get in the menu? I don't see a menu or info button of any sort on the main Kindle screen. I'm sure it's probably really obvious and I will kick myself for not seeing it.

ETA: I just switched the Kindle app from the unit to the SD card and tried to send a (free) book to my NC again. It gave a sync error message and told me to try again later.

2nd Edit: I'm such a dork today. I found the menu. *smacks self V8 style*
[Nook Color General] amstarshine:
I rebooted my NC and tried to sync again. This time it at least recognized the book but still wouldn't download. I'm on the wi-fi at work so I'll try this again when I get home where I have more control over the amount of bandwidth available.

ETA: I don't want to bump the thread but I do want to leave a note about the fix that finally worked in case others have this problem.

Go into settings>applications>manage applications>downloaded

Select Amazon Kindle

Under Data select move to SD card

Reboot

Open the Kindle App and it should sync after that.
[Nook Color General] The_Fallen_One:
Im having a problem syncing the Amazon App store to my nook table. i had my nook rooted and it was synced but i procrastinated and didnt put titanium on it and stop the OTA so i had to fix it. now everything is back to what it was but i cant get Amazon to sync this time. Is there something that i did to mess it up and can i fix it?

What do I need to know with custom Roms
[HTC Inspire 4G] GameDoctor:
Custom ROMs

Welcome, I returned my Atrix also for the Inspire.

With custom roms it is like different flavors of candy, it's what you prefer over what is good or bad.

There are usually two basic types of ROMS:

1. The stock ROM with only minor performance tweaks, bug fixes or bloatware reduction.

2. The high performance, cutting edge, features added that were not in the original.

Stock type ROMs typically offer better stability, while preformance ROMs are usually less stable and should be considered Betas, as they are constantly evolving.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
always always always make a nandroid back up before flashing. Other then that once you root and s-off the phone, flashing a stock rom or custom rom is a breeze.

perry mason = dont care.....this happens way too much....people on this forum prove, on a day-to-day basis, that they have absolutely nothing better to do than play hall-monitor on a cell phone forum. I would guesstimate that 85% of the members in our Vibrant section are people who just ***** at each other, but offer absolutely nothing to the community. They download, flash, *****, and leave....yet somehow they feel entitled??

In fact, i would also go so far to say that people who flame others for small infractions are often just as, if not more, useless than the person they are flaming. yet somehow they feel as though if they try and police the noobs that they will somehow earn some kind of "vet" status.

Hi Friends!!

I'm writing this thread bcoz i was bored with camera loader.Whenever i need camera i need to restart my device:mad:.Without camera loader we can't get high RAM.This is way how i got more RAM Without camera loader:D

1)Go to Task Manager 2

2)Select devices

3)Unload S5K3BAFX.dll and cameradriver.dll(both)

After that you will gain about 2 to 4MB RAM.Since you have unloaded camera driver camera won't work:confused:

But when you need camera just load these driver again:)

Important:

you must have to load S5K3BAFX.dll first.

Love the phone. Only complaint that I have is the battery life. I only get about 10 hours of normal use before it dies.

I have it rooted and I have installed Juice defender and setCPU. I have no idea really how to use either of these apps though.

Can anyone please help me to install and set up the apps that I need to get the best power/battery life ratio for this phone?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] princedwi:
A really helpful tip is to use black backgrounds. This reduces the amount of pixels on the screen requiring power on the Super AMOLED display, and will improve battery life significantly. Tower reception is also a big one, just turn off mobile data when you get to a low signal area.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] icy56:
I suggest turning down the brightness to the lowest indoors and then bringing it up a little outdoors. 10 hours is really good compared to the 4 hours I got on my old 4g.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GSUBass05:
I second the black background.

I also installed widgetoid, created a widget with a shortcut to the mobile network settings.

I have Network Mode set to GSM only (Edge Network) throughout the day. This is fine to keep my email syncing and for phone calls. If I know I'm going to start browsing the internet/ streaming music/ etc then I go and set the network mode to Auto to allow 4G connections.

With a few phone calls and a little bit of internet usage I still had about 60% battery life left after 12 hours off the charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kamasi36:
juice defender works wonders. Set profile to extreme. Choose carefully and let app do this rest. It auto shuts off data when not using 4 apps. I have been off charge 9:40 mitutes with 79% battery remaining. I've been on the market made a few phone calls, browsed the internet and getting and receiving text + emails coming in. Have settings GSM only until I need 4G speed. I don't need a charger because I get through the day easily.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] slipin3:
Thanks

I just wanted to say thanks everyone for the tips! I know more is coming from other users but i'm new to android i switched from Windows Mobile 6.5 and android is better so far or atleast for the week i have had this device. i was getting upset with the battery life and always taking my charger with me(i never had to do that with my custom Rhodium. the black backround idea does work very well. I have also found if you set your backlight timeout to 1 min it helps a lot.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Nicolfa:
Always hated the idea of black backgrounds on beautiful 800x480 screens. Anyhows I had the very same quick battery death too and fixed it. One get Juice Defender, very worth while, second run device in portrait mode [I was an old n900 user so I had it in landscape mode, it did not like staying in that mode]. If things get really bad turn off the WiFi when not in use and change the autosync features to off or disabled. ALOT of power is comsumed by adware communicating with various entities while your away from the device. Genuinely suprused by the sheer amount of adware on the device, nearly ever "free" app is adware [meaning you pay with your usage pattern's etc]. YMV but that all I had to do to get the battery under control.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Yep, I'm more than happy getting 10-12 hours of at-office use with WiFi on constantly (including M$ push and personal email) and a moderate amount of browsing during the day. I keep the brightness at "0" as much as possible.

Beats the pants off my N900 which would die in under 4 hours under the same at-office usage patterns.

OEM battery and charger is ~$25 or a Zagg Sparq2 (4 Ah, I believe) for watching hours of video and Angry Birds on those trans-Pacific flights.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] }{Alienz}{:
You are doing something wrong guys. . .

I'm on a Vibrant /w Froyo 2.2.1 and a 1500mah battery that is now 7 months old.

Battery left says total battery life per charge is 23 hours, 15 minutes.

Now mind you I am a relatively moderately/heavy user. I have 5 homescreens with 15 widgets total on them that refresh every 2 hours, and an intensive live wallpaper.

I use the phone a lot for reading RSS feeds, facebook, texting, and LOTS of music. Total screen-on-time per battery charge is around 3-4 hours with Automatic brightness.

Obviously you have something going on with your phones if you are only getting 10 hours. My phone is also overclocked to 1.4Ghz with overvoltages and I STILL get this good a battery life with all my usage...on an old battery mind you.

Check for rogue apps?

PS: I have Wi-Fi on 100% of the time but NEVER use 3G/HSPA for data since I don't use a data plan. The Wi-Fi is connected 90% of the time the phone is on though since I am always at places with Wi-Fi.
