Hmm, sounds puzzling.

Try a custom ROM and see if it fixes the problems.

Unfortunately if that doesn't fix the issue, then it may be a problem with the devices you are connecting to, or worse, your device.
[Desire HD General] pioul:
See, all of that worked perfectly before i flashed it, so i'm tempted to believe that comes from the rom is installed.

I'd better try with a different rom yes, but as i spent quite much time adding my contacts back and all the stuff, i'd like it if there was another solution :/

Just gonna wait one or two days see if someone ran into the same trouble, this forum's quite big, it's worth giving it a shot =)
[Desire HD General] a33a:
Got your PM. I'll answer here for the benefit of all the users on XDA :)

Regarding backing up data.

I think the phone automatically syncs with the google cloud. but in case it doesn't (I'm not so sure if you need to enable option to do it.) use MyBackup Free.

You can get it from the market.

Back up your chosen things. Don't back up settings however (unless you are going to restore to the same ROM)
[Desire HD General] pioul:
Okay thank you for these advices.

One last thing i'd like to know : hard resetting is going to reset my phone to factory settings, but in the case i bought it in an orange store (with orange apps and so), is it going to reset my phone to HTC settings or Orange ones ?
[myTouch 4G General] ChodTheWacko:
Hey Everyone,

As has been mentioned many times in other threads:

1) The LCD is often the biggest battery drainer

2) The 'minimum' setting of the brightness setting is still needlessly bright.

It certainly can be pushed further down for dim/night/dark settings.

3) Certain apps "dim" the screen but are just changing the color, not the backlight. So while useful they still aren't helping your battery.

Following some tips from a different android phone, I found this file:

/sys/devices/platform_/nov_cabc.0/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness

Which appears to contain the current 'brightness #' of the LCD backlight.

Using the normal Brightness slider, the value changes from 30 - 255, with 255 being the brightest. So this clearly could be reduced further.

Setting 'Screen Filter' to 50% brightness has no effect on the value.

Here's something interesting:

Assume the screen is already set at lowest brightness.

When I use 'Widgetsoid' to set brightness to '1', the screen dims slightly, then brightens back up. The 'brightness' file gets set to 20.

'widgetsoid 20' feels the same as 'min brightness 30'. - I wonder if Android is enforcing minimum backlight?

Anyway, thought that would be interesting to note. I'm going to download some other screen dimmer apps and see what they do.

[myTouch 4G General] ChodTheWacko:
I found this online which is very interesting reading:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/35972886/An-Analysis-of-Power-Consumption-in-a-Smart-Phone

At '30' they said the display consumed 7.8 mW, while at 255 it consumed 414 (!!!)

Various apps coud push the value to 20 - tasker, adjbrightness.

Tasker tries to set it lower but as with widgetsoid, you can see the screen get forced back up to 20.

adjbrightness can "set" it lower than 20, but the entire screen blacks out, even at 19. Remember where the other buttons are so you can restore brightness!

- Frank
[myTouch 4G General] kainepaine:
Whoa, thanks for the information. That pretty insane but its an apparently in the Market: Screen Filter, saves a helluva lot of battery.

Edit: Nevermind, Frank shut me up LOL.
[myTouch 4G General] ChodTheWacko:
I read a thread that said that the stock rom just doesn't allow setting it that low.

Ah well

- Frank
[myTouch 4G General] netter123:
Can you set it lower in other roms - like cm7?
[myTouch 4G General] tmagritte:
I've been playing with CM7 which has some nice features for customizing the auto-brightness settings as well as the "dim" value which seems to be the lowest value the screen will go to and what it gets set to when the screen dims before shutting off after a timeout.

For the Dim setting in CM7, the default is 20. The next highest setting in the picker is 18. I believe it goes down to 0 or 1. When set to 18 or lower the screen blanks out completely when dimmed. Depending on how you test this, you may have a problem getting the screen back, so be careful you know where your widget button is on the screen to bring it back... 20 seems to be the lowest value. However, while dim, in a very dark room it could certainly be even dimmer so I don't know why lower values don't work.

I've also found the light detector doesn't seem to detect a continuum of light levels. It seems to be quantized at particular values, so there's a pretty hard limit on how fine you can set the auto brightness levels since the lowest light reading it seems to take is not very sensitive. It can't seem to distinguish between a fully darkened room and a dimly lit room, so setting the lowest value automatically makes the screen too dark to be comfortable in many environments, but then too bright for a really dark room. I don't know if this is an issue with the ROM software or a hardware limitation of the sensor. I've set my lowest auto setting to 40 which seems to work well, then I manually switch it to the dim value (20) if I'm in the dark.

I purchased my Vibrant through one of those online retailers. With the package I got a USB charger and a car charger. It did not come with a wall charger ?

I think when I am traveling, the USB charger is no good. At airports I can only get to outlets..

If I am supposed to buy a wall charger separately, could someone point me to the cheapest option (ebay, Tmobile store, etc)
[Vibrant Accessories] a33a:
Can't help you on the supposed package contents.

But to charge your phone, you need to buy a USB wall adaptor.Then you plug your usb cable into it.

EBay will get you a good price.

Also take a look at DealExtreme.
[Vibrant Accessories] deeznutz1977:
yes it comes with one that the usb plugs into. that inturn plugs into the wall.

Thank you all for the clarification. I bought one which had the USB thing for $3.50 on ebay. I think that was a pretty good price with free shipping.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfreund:
My MT4G is permrooted with s=off. I am running Ice Glacier 1.1.6. I used the stock ROM for 4 days without any SD card problems. Since flashing IG, the phone is erasing my SD card every damn day. I am switching between a Sandisk 16 GB and a MicroTek 32 GB and mostly using the SD card for music storage.

I will put in a freshly formatted card (using PC running Win 7, card formatted with FAT32) with my music loaded and at some point the next day the phone will give me a message stating "SD card blank or has an unsupported file system". The phone will not format or mount the card. I'll format and load my music onto the other card, swap them, and the next day the same thing happens. I can be listening to music (mp3) and the phone will fail to load the next song, saying the file format is not supported, then the card gets nuked. I use the default "Media Room" player. Other times I will just pull the phone out of my pocket and see that the SD card has been erased.

Both cards were error free in my old Touch Pro 2.

Suggestions?

But its not updated to gingerbread 2.3.3 or similar? And I heard there was security flaw in the current darkstone version, so is there any new builds that just plain has android and works fine?

No fix as far as I'm aware - I believe apps need to update to mark as compatible with large-resolution devices such as the Adam.

One way around it, though, is to download APKs and install them on the Adam from Dropbox/USB/etc.

Try this

If you are missing items in your market give this trick a shot:

Settings — Applications — Manage Applications

Choose All

Choose Market

Force Stop

Back out, choose Google Service Framework

Force Stop

Clear Data

Back out to the homescreen, run the Market (it should fail – that’s what we want)

Reboot

Wait at least one minute after the system boots up, then retry the Market.

Hi There,

I've tried searching all over and cannot find anything so please forgive me if I'm asking something that has been asked before...

I am looking at all the wonderful custom roms out there for the Captivate but it seems that some of them do not have the classic Samsung Keyboard. I'm very fond of inputting text via the old school 3x4 portrait style with predictive texting and notice that some of the roms do not have the Samsung Keyboard, which then pretty much rules out that rom for me.

So I was wondering if there is a way to add the 3x4 portrait samsung keyboard to a rom somehow if it wasn't originally built/packaged with it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
Yes, there is definitely a way to do that. It will involve rooting your phone, and finding the .apk of the keyboard into a certain folder with 'Root Explorer'.

I'll see if I can find the Samsung Keyboard .apk for you, and I suggest you getting Root Explorer (or similar) for the time being.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgemhsu:
Wow!!! That is AWESOME!!!

I'm still a noob so pardon if I ask some potentially obvious questions... *bows head in shame*

I am getting Root Explorer and have not used it before tho have indeed rooted my phone and flashed an existing rom created by others (currently using Serendipity 5.12)

Would this Rom Kitchen method be a simple addition to a current rom via Clock Work Recovery - Reboot into recovery mode - install zip from SD Card type of thing? Or would I have to go into the folder and replace the different files with whatever is generated and rename the file, also as an addition/alteration to a current Rom that I was using?

Or would you basically be generating your own custom Rom altogether with this Rom Kitchen by starting from scratch and selecting each part of the rom yourself like the Base Rom then CSC then Kernel then Modem then Apps Etc and then doing a master clear and flashing this as a brand new rom?

And if the generated file is essentially a brand new Rom altogether, would it be possible if I just generate one with the desired "additions" that I was looking for, open that up, save/copy the additions I wanted and then just customize an existing Rom I really like by swapping out or adding those additions in the appropriate folder?

It could be, that they will deliver new phones with ext4. I think the update through kies will leave the filesystem as it is.

It's probably the safest way for them to deliver gingerbread. It could also very well be, that they will update phone to ext4. Or they leave everything on rfs but in that case the implementation of the ext4 support would make little sense.
