Samsung Captivate :: SIM Not Swapping
Dec 1, 2010
So i semi regularly swap back and forth between my iphone 4's mini/micro Sim back to full Sim with a adapter to use in the captivate... never had a problem until today,,, i put the Sim in and now the captivate is not recognizing my Sim. I've double triple checked everything, i did use a REAL adapter vice my ghetto jury rigged piece of crap adapter this time, so i switched back to my ghetto rig and it still doesn't work now! is it possible that a pin broke off or something? can some one send me a pic so i could do a sight comparison? or any other words o wisdom?

I was a Windows Mobile user since 02. So, learning to adapt.
I have tried to swapped virtual keyboards on my new HTC Evo- so far no luck. Here is what i have done- i installed a virtual keyboard like better keyboard or ultra keyboard-head over to settings-Language & Keyboard- and it gives me an option to click on whatever keyboard I want. Which I do, but it will not boot that keyboard- still goes to default. I have also restarted the phone afterward. No luck. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm trying to dynamically swap in and out various layouts to one layout container. I've instantiated the container layout (mContainerLayout) by finding it using the id through the main Activity layout. This is successful. Next, I add the inner layout by calling:
layoutInflater = this.getLayoutInflater();
and then inflating the inner layout like this:
mInnerLayout = (LinearLayout) layoutInflater .inflate(R.layout.inner_layout, mContainerLayout);
This seems to work fine. I see the inner layout displayed in the Activity that holds the containing layout. Next, I want to swap in another inner layout, so I call: mContainerLayout.removeAllViews();and then I repeat the steps above. This is successful as well. The problem is when I try to swap in and out the instantiated layouts (the one that's returned from the inflate() call). When I call: mContainerLayout.removeAllViews();and then call: mContainerLayout.addView(mInnerLayout ); get a 'source not found' error. My question is: how can I swap the Layouts that have already been instantiated?

If this is a ridiculous question, I apologize in advance. I currently have my Evo rooted with toast method, and am using the 8GB SD card that came with it. I am going to buy the 32GB card in the next few days and just was wondering if swapping out those cards would undo any of the things I have done root/rom-wise so far or if I have to take anything into consideration whatsoever?

I've tried Go Launcher EX, but I hated the small dock icons. I'm using Samsung Galaxy Nexus, is there a Launcher that:
1. Don't alter the ICS dock icon size, or that have an option to resize the dock icons?
2. That support swipe gesture in the dock? (Swipe upwards to open shortcut)
3. Where it is easy to swap icons?
Which Launcher can do this?

I am going to swap to a bigger card this morning when my 32 GB get here from verizon. I took card out and copied entire contents to my PC. Will everything work after I copy back on new card or do I have to do something else.Don't want any surprises. I would think it would be already formatted but if not I will format it FAT32

The camera on my Legend is faulty and I've finally got Vodafone to send me a replacement, but I'm worried that I'm going to lose all of my personalization etc and have to spend hours getting the new phone to the way I've got my current one. I'm not too bothered about background, widgets etc, but I was wondering if anyone could give me advice as to how to get as much info from the old handset to the new - particularly the contacts that I want who are linked through Google and Facebook, and the apps I've downloaded.I've tried syncing with HTC Sync but, to be honest, am finding it confusing; I can't see what I've synced so am not sure if there was any point in doing that. I've also backed my phone and Google contacts up on the SD card (I think!) but I'm not sure if this will work.I love the Legend, but I hate how much of a technoidiot it makes me feel! I'm supposed to be competent with these things!

So I just got my class 6 8gb memory card and I want to make the switch. What's the best way to go about this? Should I just copy all contents of the stock memory card into a folder and then copy and past all of that onto the new card and then make the switch? Or is there a better way? I don't want to screw anything up and I don't want to lose anything (pics, music, settings, etc.)

I plugged in my HTC Inspire 4G, and tried to copy everything on the card to a temporary folder, which I will then copy back to my new SD card. But the weird thing is Windows says the total size of all files and folders I copied is 1.85GB, but when I right click->Properties on the Removable Disc, it says the card has 1.94GB used. So there's about 90MB of something that's on the card but Windows can't see or copy. I'm concerned there's something hidden there that will cause problems if my phone can't find it on the new card. Any way I can make sure everything is copied over?

I'd like to take some of the data that is automatically downloaded to the SD card and have it run off the internal memory. Is there a list of apps that allows this without problems?

I got a Droid 2 recently and decided to put the 16GB card from my O.G. Droid but before so I wiped everything from it, minus my pictures and videos. My Droid 1 is rooted and I wanted to go back to it but now when I try to flash a rom it doesn't work and it looks like a bunch of stuff is missing from the SD card or whatever it needs for clockwork to do its magic. So the question is what do I need to do to get back to where I can flash roms willy nilly like before? Do I need to go to stock then re-root or is there a more simple way?

I really want a custom rom and a custom kernel for my colors xfactor
Reasons:
1) It doesn't support swapping
2)It doesn't support overclocking
3)I can't install "wifi kill" on it because its android version is 2.3.6
And many more..

So recently I got lack of internal memory(it is only 512MB though) and I tried to swap internal memory with microSD(marked as sdcard2). However, Im noob in this and after changing the lines I understood, that I changed sdcard with sdcard2(swapped sdcard and sdcard2), however, my android system seems to be not working now. I can boot and access settings, but thats all. No menu, no apps, no anything. Empty screen, only settings accessible. I cannot access any files or anything...
What I tried:
- Connecting phone to PC as I have Android Commander program which can browse system files from pc, unfortunately, failed to connect.
- Factory reset. Didnt work.
- Recovery mode - tried all options that are available, didnt work.
The phone is Prestigio Multiphone PAP4300 DUO. When I boot to the phone, I unlock it and I get many messages saying com.android.phone, system and such things stopped working. When pressing HOME button, it goes to home, but its empty(empty screen) and tells Launcher stopped working too. All I can do is access the settings. Cant call anyone though.
What to say to warranty service when I will bring the phone to them. Can they recognize that its rooted/that the vold.fstab file is modified?
Specs: [URL] ......
That looks to be white, but mine is black. I rooted it only. Havent done any changes to the phone until yesterday - swap the memories.

This phone of mine is in Android Gingerbread 2.3.6. The phone is already rooted but without CWM.
Here are the significant screenshots that maybe needed (Specs of the Phone, File Explorer structure and path of the SD Card, Internal Storage & SD Card capacities, and Location Path and Size of the vold.fstab):
Attached file below is the original untouched "vold.fstab" file from my MyPhone A818 Duo Slim in zip

I'm kind of new to Android. Only have had this phone for a few weeks,switched over from the iPhone. Anyway, I'm having trouble with Game boy emulators. I loved playing Pokemon on my jailbroken iPhone and would really love to enjoy it on my Captivate.

There have been a lot of threads both touting the quality of this phone and whining and bitching about its drawbacks. Let's make it official. Do you like the Captivate? Feel free to elaborate, or just take the poll.

So I painfully watched my Cappy's battery door crushed under my friend's car as one of their "harmless" joke. Now there's not a single site on the internet selling these doors, and I'm desperate. I found dummy/display Captivates though, so I was just wondering if anyone knows if the dummy battery door can replace the REAL door by any chance?

I got AT&T Samsung Captivate i897 (2.1 Eclair). I unlocked and rooted my phone. I was using simple free phone earlier which doesn't require data plan but after two weeks I bought samsung captivate, AT&T added $25 data plan. I got my phone from AT&T store where my friend works so he took my data plan out of the plan for now but he said they will find out and add into your plan again. Also, He said that they recognize by your IMEI number. My question is: Is there anyway I can change my IMEI number? I was thinking to use my simple free Nokia phone's IMEI number and use it for Samsung Captivate so AT&T thinks that I am using Nokia phone.

After running three updates this morning. I started getting a weird light effect when I unlock my phone. It happens at the top of the screen just to the right below the battery. It's a quick yellow glow then it disappears until my phone is locked then unlocked again. One of the updates had to do with my weather widget [Weather & toggle]. Anyone seen or heard of this?

I have an unlocked captivate. I have a German T-D1 pay-as-you-go sim that I've used many times in unlocked GPS phones. Now I have an AT&T captivate and wonder whether GPS or other apps will work. Does GPS require a data plan to work? If so I'll have to figure out whetted I can add this to my T-D1 plan. This will also answer my question about whether using the Captivate for navigation in the US needs a data plan to work.

I rooted my Captivate tonight and I know how the superuser icon with android skull and crossbones. However neither Super Manager or ASTRO will allow me to uninstall the crap ware on my phone. Is there something I'm missing? I followed all the steps at XDA. So far I've tried to remove YPMobile, ATT Navigator, and ATT Maps. Any suggestions? I tried searching this on google and this forum but didn't come up with anything.
