View 1 RepliesI have the Bell version of the Galaxy S. What is the social hub meant to do? All mine seems to have is a link to gmail, sms and f/book. If that's it doesn't seem too intersting but I assume I haven't set it up properly? Samsung don't seem too good at providing good user documentation. I've moved from blackberry so I'm a bit new to these functions.

I am a sales engineer for a company that specializes in streaming. I have and love my droid, i have tried using it with several of our products for live streaming but with no luck.
I have tried video meant to stream with the Ipod and nothing happens.
I have tried MP4 ASP and it starts to open the video but never plays.
I have tried progressive downloads of both with no luck.
i have tried 3gp with no luck.
Do you know what video formats it can stream?
Does anyone else run into the same problem as I do? If my phone dies or I do a reboot I get to the lock screen and it says no signal and does not pick up a cell signal at all. During normal use it said no signal before, but a few seconds later it got a signal. Now it will not get a signal at all and the only way to get a signal again is to do a factory reset. Is the jump to 2.1 supposed to fix all this too?

Has anyone else had this problem? If so, is there a fix? We are both out of the 30-day time frame but we do have insurance on both.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've notice recently my Hero has been acting up, almost as if it is rebooting. However, I don't believe it is a full reboo, i.e. no sprint logo during boot. Only occurs when exiting out from the internet browser. As soon as you hit the home screen to exit, the phone returns to the white htc load page. It appears like it is the full reboot but it does not move next to the Sprint/Now pages. Next the desktop appears but it is grayed out (i.e. my desktop still shows but grayed out, no icons or widgets showen) and the spinning loading icon shows up. Once it finishes loading things appear back to normal. Almost makes me wonder if this reboot is more like sense rebooting and not the entire phone/system. Not sure if this is possible but I want to get anyone's thoughts and if anyone else had expirenced this.

Since I've stopped using a task killer and letting android manage things, I've been having to do it twice a day to keep it speedy and usable. Usually in the morning I reboot, read my rss feeds, check this forum & facebook (browser), some emails and some light texting. Once I get to working around 7:30am (I work landscaping) I pop in the earbuds and listen to soma fm with droid live lite till lunch at 11:15. Lunch time I plug in the phone for about 40 minutes to boost up the battery to get me through my music habit for the rest of the workday which ends at 3pm.
I've noticed that if I don't reboot after lunch, my phone is just sluggish and slow as can be. Especially if I've got droid live running and I get a text or an email. I only run two widgets, the "flip clock" and the small style calendar underneath it on my home screen. So I don't think that has much of an effect on my phones performance in the long run. When I was using a task killer, the only time I would reboot was when I woke up in the morning and I was good for the rest of the day. I've been considering running a task killer again, as android doesn't seem to be doing as great of a job managing things as I'd like, but I wanna hear some of your input and experiences first.
I am using a CDMA HTC Hero (sprint). I have rooted the device via Universal Androot which worked flawlessly. I am now trying to flash a custom rom, which is already loaded onto my SD Card (Red Dawn). Here in lies my problem:
Using Rom Manager, I flashed the ClockworkMod Recovery successfully but when i chose to ""Reboot from Recovery" the phone gets hung up at the white HTC boot screen indefinitely until I battery pull.
I have tried many, many different approaches and am now seeking some desperate advise as to how to get into recovery mode so i may flash the new rom. I have tried to enter recovery manually (vol down/pwr on) only for it to get hung on the HTC screen as soon as I chose recovery. I have tried to "Flash Alternative Rom" and the re-flashing the ClockworkMod Recovery all to no avail.
On Hero, do the apps reside in RAM? If so, how do they survive reboot?

I rebooted my phone this morning (was running CM6 6.1.0 RC1) and ever since the reboot I cannot connect to any google services and the data connection when connecting to webpages is hit or miss. When I try to connect to my google account on the initial setup for CM6 and for Fresh 2.4 I get the error: 'cant establish a reliable data connection to the server'. I have good to great signal strength yet terrible connection. Would updating my radio help? After doing some googling someone suggested updating my profile through the system settings. Can I do that with a rooted phone or do I have to flash back to an official update?

View 3 Replies View RelatedToday my phone started continuously re-booting itself. Only gets to the HTC screen and then re-boots. I have done multiple battery pulls with no results. I cannot boot into recovery either, tried that many times as well. My only option is a screen that I have not seen before that asks if I want to clear all data and then reset the device.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'll be on my phone browsing through the net, on my apps etc. Then once I get back to my home screen all of a sudden my screen freezes and the "HTC screen" pops up (same screen when you reboot your phone) and then I will have to wait a minute or two for everything to load up again. I've had my hero since January and this problem recently just began last week. It happens quite often and it's really irritating. I always clear my cache/data/history. Could it perhaps be some of the applications I downloaded from the market causing this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAnyone else's phone randomly stop receiving SMS messages? I even have SMStomail installed and it doesn't catch the SMS messages at all. I can make calls, get emails, but no SMS at all until I reboot. It's happened twice and is beginning to get annoying.
This is not the same as the SMS/VM issue because a simple reboot solves it, and I am no where near 40mb on my ROM, and the SMStomail service doesn't catch it.
So, I'm new to Android and this whole WORLD of things lol. How often do yall restart/reboot the phone? Kind of on-topic, but has anyone had any issues turning the phone right back on after turning it off? I've had this happen twice, where the phone wouldn't do anything, power button useless. This is after the phone shuts down and I try to turn it back on. I have to pull the battery to get the power to turn on.

The widget id is the key in the database.Everything works on most devices, but I got a bug report a couple of days ago. A user said that the widget never worked after reboot. The user who was very helpful sent me a log from his phone, and I could then see that the widget got a new id each time he did a reboot.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the new reboot function defined here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/PowerManager.html#r. but I'm running into permissions issues even though I have the REBOOT permission in my manifest: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REBOOT" /> The error I see in logcat is: E/Android Runtime( 5272): java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 10059 nor current process has android.permission.REBOOT. The REBOOT permission doesn't show up in the list of permissions for my app even though other permissions do. Is this a functionality that is still protected even though it's now a part of the public API? All of my testing so far is on a Nexus One with Android 2.2

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one specific text message that I sent to a buddy of mine last week that gets re-sent to him every time I reboot my phone (Incredible). It's always the same message and it always shows in the messaging app as the last message sent to him, but it only shows once. The previous occurrences do not show. Seems as though it is not getting a confirmation that the message was sent, so it retries it on a reboot. But my friend gets every one. I have uninstalled Handcent and it still happens with stock messaging app.Anyone know a way to clear pending/unconfirmed SMS's?
