Samsung Captivate :: Start Phone By Touching Screen
Oct 12, 2010
Is this possible? Many times my phone is in a holding frame of some kind (cars) and the button on the side isnt easily accessed. Is there an app or a way that a simple tap on the screen can activate the phone instead of requiring pushing the button on the side?

anyone have this problem w/ the moment whereby your face touches the screen and causes accidentally pressed keys, things to move on screen, etc. associated w/ touching the screen? I think I remember this happening once or twice on the moment but admittedly, I don't use it much so not sure if the lock screen was on, screen was off, etc. Just looking to see if anyone if affected by this or if it's a known problem.

I own an HTC Hero and the phone can only be awaken by pressing the menu button or the power off button. Dunno if it's like this for every Android phone. I'm looking for a way to awake the phone by touching the screen. My idea is to replace the KeyGuard with something else but instead of awaking the phone by pressing one of those buttons, I would like to do it by touching the screen. Is this even possible or the Androd framework doesn't provide this functionality at all?

My wifes Incredible started shifting the home screen to the right without any touching. When its centered the screen begins swiping to the right as if a finger was there. In "all programs" it starts highlighting apps as if I was touching them but I am not. I have tried G-sensor calibration, keyboard calibration, restarts and the closing of apps but cant find where the trouble lies. Is it possible the touchscreen is now defective?

I've only had it for a week, so how do I exchange it?, or what do I do?
In case you wonder how I know, the screen goes to blackness after the galaxy S screen

This problem only started after I bought JuiceDefender and I think I have all the settings set up properly so I'm not sure why this is happening. In the Android settings I have it set for a 30 second timeout, but for some reason my screen will fade brightness, but never go off completely.

Im pretty much a noob to all these cell phone device operations etc. I thought launcherpro was pretty cool so i installed it but when i started using it, it seemed that my device was much slower than with just the original launcher. Also i was wondering if there is an app to take a screen shot without the phone being rooted (what does that even mean?)

My battery is not very good and have to use task advance to turn them off all the time. I notice everytime I turn on the phone a bunch of app also start such as messenger, paypal, voice, fring etc.. so the first thing I do after turn the phone on was using task advance to kill all those apps. Is there a way to prevent them from auto start?

I used my phone at home a lot. Is there any way to disable the initial "phone locked"? It is very annoying to have to swipe every time I want to access the phone when it is just sitting on my desk. I looked in the manual and did not see any options regarding this.

Anything you guys can think that could help? I've searched around, and found that holding down VOLUME DOWN and Power lets you hard reset the phone, but this doesn't work for me. I hold them down, and the phone just boots up like normal and then shuts off.I rooted it, and it was working fine. Rebooted a few times and then it quit working.

When I select the power button to bring the phone out of sleep the phone screen will turn off within a second or two. Is there a way to keep the screen on longer? If I press power and look away for a second the screen goes black again. Its liek I have to hit power and jump right on it to enter my swipe code.

I tried everything and I'm beside myself. I dropped my phone off the second level of a local mall....it is (was) a Samsung Captivate. I was leaning over the rail to yell down to someone and the phone fell out of my pocket.
The screen is black....the buttons on the bottom light up and function. but I can't see a thing.
I need to get a video off the phone of my son, it was one of those moments that I was so glad I caught on video. I have to get it!! I"m sending the phone to DR.PHONEZ to get repaired but I scared that this video will be lost. So
I tried BitPim but the phone isn't supported. IT is recognized by my pc but I can't access the files I need.
two REMOVABLE drives show up in "MY COMPUTER" but when I click them it says "please insert disk"
Not sure what to do here, I checked all over the web.

I was attempting to install the latest Cog and now the phone is stuck on a screen with a little white phone ---an exclamation point---and then a little white PC.

So I understand there are known issues with the Market getting stuck at "Starting Download" but here's my problem. I removed GoogleTalk which seems to be the route of the issue and now I can't seem to get it back. Also, ever since then I get the following error message upon booting: "The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. dumpstate_app_201008021101_com_google_process_gapp s.log has been saved. Use *#9900# to copy out log." I'd rather not have to factory reset since I'm already rooted and was just getting things the way I liked them.

waiting for a swop out but just wondering if anyone has had a problem where the screen scrolls downwards of its own accord. Sometimes if on the browser, the screen will start going down the links. It's not just a browser thing either and can happen on any app or screen.It's an occasional thing. I've eliminated finger prints (put on a screen protector and it still happened), sunlight hitting the sensor (can happen indoors in the dark) and I've done a hard reset. It's driving me up the wall and I've been waiting 10 weeks for a replacement from T-mobile now (although the keep refunding me money so I can't complain too much).

My tablet has a problem that it usually (not always but most of the time) disables all sounds when I touch the screen. Depending on how long I touched the screen the sounds return immideadly or few seconds after I let go. When the sounds return it plays some of the sounds that should have played when I was touching the screen.
Android version is 4.1.1 and model number of the tablet is rk30sdk.

Try SpriteMethodTest, set 100 sprites, select OpenGL / Use VBO, let it run for a while. You will get something around 20ms / 50 fps. Now run it second time, and simply touch screen while test is running. You will get something around 35ms / 29 fps. So it is 15 ms difference. As I understand, the answer is simple - it is that dispatcher thread running with THREAD_PRIORITY_URGENT_DISPLAY priority.Setting THREAD_PRIORITY_URGENT_DISPLAY priority (will it work on non- ADP firmware?) on renderer thread yields 30 ms / 33 fps.

Is there a way to set the inline headphone button to do something other than start/stop media? I would like to set it to something more useful such as search so I can remotely activate Vlingo.

I want my application to resume what it is doing regardless of where I press the icon (Home screen, app picker, or running apps). Right now if my app is in the background and I press the icon on the home screen, the app restarts with my Main Activity. Once here, if I press the back button the app resumes from the activity it left off before it was put in the background. If it's running in the background and I hold the home button and select my app from the current running apps, it resumes correctly. How do I avoid my app from going to my Main activity when it is selected from the Home screen or app picker? I have tried adding the following in my Manifest XML file, but it doesn't help: <activity android:name=".Main" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:alwaysRetainTaskState="true" android: label= "@ string /app_name">

I've noticed that I'm getting little tingling shocks to my right index finger whenever I touch the Evo's screen.What's even stranger is that I don't feel the sensation on any other fingers on either hand. Has anyone else had a similar experience with their evo screen and finger feeling little shocks?I'm not imagining this, and I'm wondering why the heck it's just my index finger?!? Maybe it's just more sensitive, but who knows.I would assume that the capacitive touchscreen technology is the culprit. I can live with the slight tingling, I just don't know why it's only on 1 finger!

I have a Captivate that I just brought today.....and everything works just fine except the Contacts App. When I launch the Contacts App the screen is blank and nothing to click on to add a contact.
Is something wrong with just the app or phone? Has anyone experienced this?

Is there an app to download to make the Motorola Droid stop ringing when touching the screen? I can't figure out a way to turn off the sms ringer other than just letting it play out.

I cannot get the recovery screen to come on for the life of me. I hold the volume buttons and the power button and once the AT&T screen pops up, I release the power button. It sits there for a second and the screen goes black. I have tried releasing the power buttons then and I have tried holding them as well.

So today in glass design I was checking messages when a small ( when i say small i mean you almost can't even see it) piece of glass landed on my captivate. My captivate has the body glove, screen protector and screen protector.When this little piece of glass got on the screen I tried to just rub it off but it cut through the screen protector and put a deep scratch on the actual captivate screen.The screen protector I was using was gadget guard so I definitely don't recommend using that if you plan on it because of how weak it is. I'm also disappointed with the captivates screen. If a small piece of glass barely rubbing on it can leave a deep scratch, I can't imagine what keys could do.You can't really see the scratch, but I'm just super ocd about it and can feel it on my finger every time it's in that area.
