Hi, I am sorry if this has been posted before else where on XDA but i cant find anything on the development thread.
Is it possible for someone to make a G-Sensor calibration app that works globally for all apps on the phone?
I have the problem where if you say, use the layar app, the horizon is not level and driving games always go to the left for example.
I have rooted my phone now so cant send back for warranty. Surley a global calibration app for rooted users would be quite simple lol? not that i am a developer haha.. i have no idea, but surley its just a case of adding a number to part of the code for the g-sensor driver heh heh
Hope someone can help!
p.s Who else has this issue?
P.s. I just read on this this thread that Modaco's alpha 14 ROM contains g-sensor calibration in 'settings, sound and display and @ the bottom G sensor calibration'??
Is is possible for someone to get the bits requred to enable this on any rom that we can just flash an update.zip to get working?
sorry for putting this post in the development forum, i saw some other requests and assumed that was the place for it
so, Bump, any devs have any idea if its possible?
Bump
Calling all devs! :O) Does anyone know if its possible?
not one single person has anything to say about this? sigh...
bump from me too...
lastes cyan has issues after laying on a table.
It won't go to portrait mode.
i'll see if i can find a way to pull that little tidbit from their code. i found this while trying to find a way to unscrew my compass. i thought there was a way to calibrate it.
does anyone know where the g sensor or compass physicly is in the phone? i'm guessing in the gps box, but i dont know. in the early days of my G1, it sailed across the room a plenty due to the lightsaber/sword/fishing/gun apps. some call it Wii syndrome. i may have broken the damned thing.

Woah, I thought I was the only one with this problem.
Setting the phone on a table pretty much guarantees it going into landscape and I have to tilt it back up and forward to get it back into portrait before laying it down again.
8So everyone begged for it and here it is, a beggining to end revamp of the ffc mod thread.
Original threads:

(note im doing this from my phone, so please let ne know of any typos, broken links, or missed topics)
This will be in Q&A form, so lets get started.
1) Where do I get an FFC?
Globaldirectparts.com sells them in bulk, shipping is slow, so now your best bet is ebay.
2) How do I install it?
Start here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOvt6atrin8&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Then here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8436475&postcount=375
Video removed...
3) I got it installed, but how do I use it?
Most custom roms include support for the ffc. If yours does not there is a flashable zip here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11172683&postcount=1482
4) My FFC is blurry... wtf?
You need to focus it, there is a small ring on the FFC, play with it until you find the sweetspot for you.
5) There are red lines in low light, is there a fix?
Currently no, there has been signifigant progress on lowering the amount, but its not perfect yet. Be patient its coming.
6) How do I videochat?
First you need an app called sgstools, get it here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?xtw16417su40j7b
Next go into the .prop editor and select build.prop. Press menu, and then unblock. Now for every field that reads "SGH-T959" change it to "GT-I9000". Hit menu then save, now reboot. You can now go to tye market and download apps such as fring and Tango!
7) In the chat app, my image is rotated 90degrees.
Its an app problem. Ask the person you are chatting with if they see you sideways, if they say yes, uninstall the app and try changing your build.prop to SPH-D700.
8)What if I have more questions?
Ask them here, I vow to keep this thread flame free. (although there will be sarcasm)
9)What is SGStools?
Its a program used to install the i9000 cam, change build.prop, anf even access hidden features of your phone such as gps test and network status. You can find the latest version here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?xtw16417su40j7b
Thanks to Sirrial, Kellylewis, Scrizz, Master, Eugene, hell everybody, we've been working on this for 4 mos. and we are the reason the Vibrant 4g exsits.
Update: There is an update to sgstools. After you install, reboot then open your market. When you look at your apps list you will see an update, dont click it you'll get an error. Instead, long press it and select update.
(I didnt do this to step on toes. There was a huge demand for this. If you want faster production I highly advise on donating to Kellylewis, he is trying to juglle this project along with life and service to.his country, correct me if i'm wrong there. Also I purposefully left out the test kernals posted before because they aren't a full fix and have produced errors with kb1 roms)

Thanks for the new thread it really helps outs. I'm just waiting until the V4G comes out to pull the trigger on the ffc.
Fear the beard...
Alright, clean slate.
We need to search the old threads for the updates or latest 'news' of what has happened to this.
I'll take my part in searching certain post by KellyLewis on what progress he's done to this, along with other users.
Also, OP, we need an extra space for all the post that has attachments, you know how it is, everybody will start asking "where can i find that one attachment that fixes...etc." on this thread. We don't need that such.
I believe Siiral had a one stop shop for the attachments, and i think we can just link that up for that particular post?
What you think?

Ok im on board with the new thread. Im talking to my kernel dev as I write this on more things to try. The issue were having right now isnt banding well what were used to anyways. We have color lines at the moment like greens and blues, we got rid of the red and white so far. We get rid of one and create another.

I've a FFC mod, i'd like to know if it is possible to make a video call to a phone number, with no other application like tango or fring.
Thank's
As I have stated before I'm a amateur photographer and I have learned that in low light situations it is very important to understand that banding will always be a major hurdle. Since this is a "Fixed" lens, and the camera has no flash, post processing of video/pictures will IMO go the furthest with lessening/eliminating banding. Have you guys been able to find what (software) the I9000 uses for this? Can the Image Stabilization software be tweaked? ISO be increased or shutter speed be sped up. I know I am asking/presenting more problems than solutions but I really think that these are the key.
There's a nice little camera apk that can be flashed on page 149 of the main thread that could go in the op.

this is very true, as i am filmmaker and have been working with film for many years. if, like you say, it is an ISO problem, which it seems to be, it is all software, and we need to figure out how to let more light in, or somehow bring up the contrast (which might also fix the problem).
we need more light to go into the lens
We do need more light in the lens I took a video outside in the daytime and there was almost no banding only indoors or artificial lighting is where the banding is bad

I'm on board as well, I did some work on grounding... succeeded in frying one camera, won't be so clumsy on the next.
I think it would help to incorporate some of the findings in one part of thread (op)
Then at least we can get rid of the redundancy and repetitive questions.
BTW my earlier Nikon DSLR's had banding issues as well in low light, so it is a common issue
has anyone been able to successfully swap out their vibrant (if necessary) with t-mobile after applying this mod? I have it done, and am thinking about trying the nail polish trick to see if i can get a replacement for dropped calls. just not sure if it will work.

really? i've been trying but no matter what i do it's still kind of obvious that something has been changed there when you look towards that corner
I have noticed that prior to displaying a photo with the gallery that there appears to be some processing of the picture. I am wondering if the I9000 does that prior to saving a picture to memory. Has anyone tried to import (hope that's the right term) that APK and seeing if it helps?
I returned my vibrant with this mod as well.. So far no extra fees other than shipping since I don't have insurance..
At first I used spray paint.. I spray painted a paper and collected enough paint to let ONE drop drip into the hole..and with a toothpick I spread it around.. But it wouldnt dry and once it did I missed a spot. It was a pain. But I think it works most effectively if done right.. When I returned it however, I just used the black nail polish mentioned before. It was soo obvious but it worked. Btw my camera had goo-gone IN it which made every picture blurry.. (why I returned it) plus my vibration didn't work so....
You should be good

Hello everybody ...
Cud someone please give me a stepwise breakdown on if/how I could get gtalk to have a black theme
(or give me a link to a black gtalk apk that I could use to replace the stock one ) ?
I did search before posting this thread.. and found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821214
but that OP's just stating tht the gtalk app inside another ROM is black in color.
I'm sure this has been asked / done before, and if it has, please don't hammer me...
It's just that I am new to android, and some of the google results i got for 'black gtalk app' said some scary sounding things like deodexed (?)
And - I haven't rooted my Nexus S yet (yes, i know.. i'm a bit scared still.. )
Help please?
All you had to do is go to the second page.

(Unsure if it works on Gingerbread)
And you'll most likely need Root for this to work since google talk is a .apk within /system/app/
/system/app/ cannot be modified unless you're rooted.
Rooting is relatively simple on Nexus S, don't be scared

Yes- thanx again! I've read through those a few times and all the positive responses from 'first timers' have been tempting me a lot.
I'm actually waiting for the phone to launch officially in Dubai (rumored to happen in the week after next), and then I think I'll become a bit more brave to fiddle with it..
but if i muster enough courage before that, I'll definitely follow that guide ..
(psst: please be on standby with some emergency XDA paramedics, in case you hear me yelping, after a not so successful rooting attempt )

You have any idea if it's going to be a I9020 or I9023? There's reports of I9023 rooting of not completely working. Something about cache partition, I'm sure it'll get fixed.

I'm inclined to think it'll be the Super Clear LCD one .. because the Dubai/UAE market seems to be like a Singapore-market follower .. and the SLCD version has just been announced there..
The SAMOLED is partly why I'm happy that I went through some bit of trouble (and a LOT of worrying) to get my NexS delivered safely from Austin..
But boy am I in love with it!
I dont think anyone's been able to pry it out of my hands since it landed (touchwood)
And, like you said... I'm sure the i9023 would get rooted soon enough by folks here
[maybe Google could just officially link to the XDA as their main 'user support forum' .. ]
I was able to push the gtalk and the google voice to the Nexus S. I have it installed on the nightly cm7 #26. The google voice is working but the gtalk is failing to connect to the server.
i was able to install but it hangs on a black screen where my contacts should be but nothing displays. theres also the refresh circle in the top right that keeps going. then if i selct anything via menu button push and go back it force closes on me.
Can someone tell me why is it marked as SOLVED when it does not work on the nexus S? I want this feature badly, if anyone has any idea pls share.

I totally agree but there is a solution now for sure. DARKGINGER NEW 4/5/11 DarkGapps4511.zip this is just gapps for the people not using the nightlies. These work on any HDPI phone running Gingerbread! THIS HAS WORKING DARK GTALK.

Okay, obviously I was rooted. Everything was great. I went into CWM, when I was going to flash a simple script mod (which every phone can use) well I accidently clicked off into my SGII files (which of course was stupid of me) and it installed fluxii kernel for SGH-i777. (intern flashes a custom recovery for the xx tweaker that that particular kernel uses. Of course, I didn't even realize I had done it, just went to Reboot Now. Now, I've got no Download mode, no bootloader, no anything, just blackness, I feel as if there is a simple key process or way to somehow get it fixed so I can flash it back via ODIN, but with all the confusing button combo's and ideas I've found so far, and all the ' types of bricks ' I dont know the best route about doing this, whomever helps me get my phone unbricked/unsoftbricked/superbricked/cute bricked, which ever version (assuming its possible) I swear on my life I will mail them a 32GB HP touchpad.
(I have 3 and only need 2) so, I hope this in some way will get me an answer soon.
I cantbelieve I pulled a n00b. No more not moving data from SD cards for me ever again...

It might be worth a go man. I would reccomend having it plugged into a computer and keep trying to turn it on even if the screen doesn't turn on and see if Odin picks anything up. Its not going to hurt your device anymore :/ you could always go to a hardware store and buy a mini USB and a 300k resistor and trying to make a jig yourself if that unbrick doesn't work (which I don't think it will)

it involves a paperclip, and a hidden compartment behind somewhere where most would never dare stick anything, its rather a hidden reset button or something I wouldnt recommend it to anyone however...if someone finds themself in a bind id gladly help, but its that way or shipping it back if done wrong basically I just got lucky.

it involves a paperclip, and a hidden compartment behind somewhere where most would never dare stick anything, its rather a hidden reset button or something I wouldnt recommend it to anyone however...if someone finds themself in a bind id gladly help, but its that way or shipping it back if done wrong basically I just got lucky.

I am no ordinary greenhorn, in fact, to be completely honest this is the first smart phone I have ever owned. Before this love affair began with my thrill 3D, I was partial to the cheap flip phones. So without further ado; I rooted her bricked her first by checkin out system tuner and seeing what would happen if I turned up a thing or two. When i woke in the morning jungle font stopped unexpectedly, so i pressed force close, it came back faster than i could pull my thumb away, after about a dozen or so times w/ the same result, I did what any sensible idiot comparable to uneducated stone would do and pulled the battery. She rebooted with no font. Factory reset, root again recover my beloved apps and data and then (again what any sensible idiot would and opened system tuner. in my defense, however i was only moving system files to sd not uninstalling them. 'ol thrill did not like that one bit and with a sudden burst of rage-full, maniacal, protest force closed files of all types, one super quickly right after another. it was a domino effect sort of thing. anyway, i tried the lg flash package steps several times to no avail, now it seems overwhelming. tomorrow i am dive right in to xda university deal i heard about, but in the mean time any help in getting my deeply missed thrill back on line would be appreciated so much more than most of you could imagine. i have a lot on plate and this couldn't have been a worse time for me kill my life line. Thank you guys in advance. sorry 'bout the long post, verbose is my middle name.

Actually my friend, I'm in my late thirties with two little boys. I'm a single dad, with zero presence from their biological co-founder. I'm a carpenter by trade, hence the cheap flip phones in the past. In addition to work and kids, I did start going to college full time (I'm in my second semester) for child psychology in order to better understand the difference between my youngest (4) who is developing typically and my oldest (7) who is autistic. In the middle of wrestling an already obese schedule, I am smack dab in the middle of fighting with the school district because they are (in my opinion based on my careful observation) stuck in the process of teaching autistic kids how to be more autistic rather than how to be "human" like most of the rest of us. To recover my boy from his public-school-bootloop seems to be as equally perplexing as my phone. A seventh grade education over twenty years ago only goes so far. So there it is, while I love to write, I am far from a frat boy, where they get laid in bed, I only lay in bed Embarrassing really, but my sacrifice is/will be the root of all of my boys smiles. I don't have the money nor the desire to buy a new phone. I love my thrill! It is imperative that I get it back online ASAP. Unfortunately often times a picture in crayon is what I need when it comes to some things. If you guys can't or won't help me get it going I figure it out, I always do. But no matter what, I will have my thrill. P.S. Mad props for all you guy that have put the effort into XDA University and the slang terms thread, I admire people who give up their time and energy just for the sake of sharing what they know, for us "noobs" that kind of generosity is the only way learn about such alien concepts and processes as these. Like I said "I'm no ordinary greenhorn" Thanks again in advance, time is ticking and I'm not using a pay phone and refuse to get a flipper! Gotta run, good day all!!!!!!

come on, I'm not gonna beg!
But I will ask nicely; please will one of you guys help me? I got a really nice one of a kind end grain cutting board i just finished up in shop i also just finished two Tangram puzzle sets hand made out of some beautifull exotic hardwood for any one interested in helping me make sense of this proccess of recovering from a bootloop. I'm not gonna go away, even if I have to figure out some other means.

I followed the instructions from an optimums thread by dark lestat, i tried four times. but absolutely nothing happened. Norton was a problem, fixed that. then found out what a com port was, let me ask anyway, that refers to the USB port right, and not communication port like maybe through a my firewall? i haven't tried a different USB cable yet cause i just found out about it tonite while i was looking for some answers. do i do anything with the kidz file? i would rather have a different ROM, what is the recovery manager for? and one more clarification, how do I know that it is working at the last step when i put the bat back in and connect the USB to my lap top? will it vibrate or screen flash or something. I am going to try again tomorrow. i learned a lot i didn't know today from xda u, so I don't feel so lost. I can build a house ,but droid recovery is a whole ball game! Thanks again Bigtech.
another Q
Does it matter which kdz file I choose, if so Which one should I use? I ended up with the official gingerbread cause it was the only link that worked.
use either v30b kdz of v28b kdz. they're both ics, which is, i believe much better than gingerbread
Any word if they got rid of the ghost call problem? And I am very surprised that ATT still cares about this phone considering they discontinued it like 5 months after they started to sell it

question
why b2cappsetup pop up tellin me to connect with the internet when i already am? tryin to flash v30b recovering from a bootloop. thanks!
sorry bro
Hate the game Dog, not the playa:laugh: the xda new-membe- intro video made me do it! It said that you old pros are "lawn geezers" and we are the kids runnin across your front yard. I was simply getting into charector:} nah just kiddin, i did over do it a bit though huh won't happen again either cause you all are much more helpful when your not pissed.
OK I have not read your other posts. Install Smartflash instead and install the 2 drivers. Then flash XBSA's pretty rooted ROM with Smartflash.
Download XBSA's V7.2 ROM and flash it from recovery.

I'm gonna try the second one again first though, something isn't right with the b2cappsetup, maybe its my anti virus or firewall
