Did you try formatting your old one instead of putting in a new one?

There are a few fixes its actually a file on the SD card that needs to be deleted..////// Formatting the card obviously will delete that said file lol

what files do we need to delete because we have formatted it before with no change
is this happening to alot more people then i though

thanks KenKiller for the reply,
I have searched the free app market for such a software but could not find, do you know if it is available as a paid app?
ahhh I missss that auto-vibrate so much !!!!!
I loved it on my magic. no need to hold the phone on our ears until they pick up
i tried to search for it, but in the end found many more threads where people asked for this function to be removed from many other phones.
Guess it's hard to please the whole world.
Place the phone.apk from this thread onto your SD card and use APKInstaller to install it. It should overwrite your stock phone.apk and will provide you the feature set you desire.
However, I don't know if this has been attempted on a SGS before - so be ready to restore your stock ROM if it doesn't work...

Waiting for a brave soul to try this.
I'm pretty sure the Phone app that comes with SGS is quite unique. After installing launcherpro the default phone button wouldn't even work until I replaced it.

Thanks for your help, I will do it once i get my SGS
Is there any news about this issue ?
uhhhh, sounds fun, let me book mark this and try it when i have spare time to mess around with my phone
For some reason the setting for this is in Settings > Sound and Display, Vibrate for Incoming Calls which is by default unticked. I thought I saw another somewhere else, going to poke around a bit more.
Edit: Damn, can't find it. I swear I saw options for vibrating at the start and/or end and or during calls, maybe I'm getting confused with my Magic though?
I really miss that feature from my old phone. The nearest app I can find is this http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-cn-cwd-callvibrate-BApt.aspx

what are the "original sd card contents"?

It is what is on your SD card when you take your new phone out of the box before you go all adding and deleting files from it.
Edit: and if you wondered exactly what it was... junk that needs deleted.

why yes it is. just a whole **** load of junk. I just wanted the myfaves icons as they finally put some good ones on the phones. and not everyone in my contacts has a facebook account so id like to have some nice generic photos for the contacts.
haha OK, that's what I kinda suspected.
thanks was looking for this!

mine seems to be getting quite unreliable too
might just be due for a hard reset and some spring cleaning on the sd card though, these things usually help......

yeah it does but only untill you start filling it again with all the goodies on offer. as much as i love this phone, i do find it to be very unreliable and hard resets are a total pain......

I see you've installed lots of stuff - themes, CHT, CHT widgets, fonts etc...It might be from one of these or ... have you flashed a new ROM recently without first cleaning up your SD card from system files left from previous ROM? Backup your photos, empty your DCIM folder and then copy back only the photos - make sure there's no cache file from previous rom (if that's the case).

i've never flashed my phone but yes, i have loads of gear installed which i guess doesnt help. if my phone crashed just on me i couldnt really give a rats, you just dont want it to happen when a mates checking it out, doesnt look good. but whatever, im still diggin the phone.....
**** phone ever! enough said!
Love the hardware, hated the software (Cookie went some way to improve this), but Android solved all my problems
HD2 + android = top
try the moto build (mytouch), works great and it's smoother then the HD builds

Just asking .. but why have you not flashed your phone ?
You can make the phone whatever you want and by adding in some good cabs you can make the hd2 faster and have those guys with Iphones who have allways hated my phone actually say wow .. that phone is cool

dunno really, im quiet happy just using cht as a base and going from there. untill the phones paid for (end of contract) i'll plod along doing what im doing, once its paid for then i'll probably look into the world of flashing.......but by then i'll have probably moved over to the newest android phone thats out..

Yes, exact problem I have. I also realized my sd card all of a sudden became "read only" and can't place anything on it (no pics/vids/etc). Read these forums and it's recommended to remove everything from sd card and format it again.,then place everything back.,.,gonna try it when I get home

Are you trying to download via WiFi or data, there may be issues there.
Im on data right now , im about to check if it works with wifi.
Could it maybe be becouse I updated my android market to the new one but it had errors and always closed so I put the firmware back on new now its the old one again?

I think it may be a connection problem. If it works with WiFi and not DATA, then we know it's a DATA problem...
well ... it still doesnt work ill do another reinstallation with another google email then we'll see if it works but that for the help
Mine automatically updated itself while I was out and about just now.
I am on DHD build and have the accounts & sync background data enabled all the time.

Apps2sd PATCH- Move ALL apps!!!

Hi Guys.
I have been reading on the forums how to make more room on the HD2, seen as mine is bugging me all the time that space is low. I have noticed that lots of people have said that Apps2sd only moves 90% of apps. I did come across this site
http://www.androidblog.it/site/2010...p2sd-con-tutte-le-applicazioni-semplice-tool/
which says that this patch will let you move ALL apps. So i risked it for a biscuit and installed it. It works fine and im glad to say that all those annoying apps that i could not move to SD i have been able to move. Im sorry if this has been found or covered before but coming from WM6.5+WP7 about 8 weeks ago and getting MASSIVELY addicted to Android, i found this really helpful.
P.S. I don't know if i posted this in the right thread so if any mod doesn't think so please move it.
Thanks Adam.
I hope it helps some of you guys out too!

Download the patch to your desktop, Run as administrator, make sure your phone is plugged in. When the white box appears press number 1 to patch. Simple as that!!
Hope that helps.

So i take it that i have to be using Windows 7 to run the patch? When i select RUN AS on Windows XP it doesnt give the option for run as admin... or am i missing something i should know about ...
Just run it normally on xp.

thanks everyone for putting up with blonde moment.. it wasnt just running because i still had Active Sync from my old days with WinMo blocking it from running..
so i ran it and selected number one.. after connecting it gave this message << *daemon started sucessfully * >> and it didnt do anything else.. i rebooted and it is still showing no other moveable apps to the sd card.. should i re-run the patch?
You have to run app2sd on your phone, its assuming you have it, if you do run it and you will see the apps you can move, if you dont have it, then you need to install it.
Kinda off-topic, but I use DarkTremor's A2SD script, and can run 99.9% of my apps from my 1gb ext4 partition. I have probly a couple hundred apps at least, and maybe 2 or 3 have to be on internal memory. I still have like 650 mb internal storage free and my phone runs smooth like a freshly installed rom with no apps installed. Wish I could drop a link to DT's A2SD thread, but I'm away from my computer right now sorry

As Huggs said just run normally on XP. I just take for granted that everyone is using Windows 7 sorry.
works great.
Some apps moved to SD, become very slow while loading (like iGo), others run and load the same.
Thanks

Have you tried moving the apps anyway. I have found that when i go to APP2SD and select the "phone only" tab, the APPS i cant move are in the list but the move to SD tab is highlighted when i select them.
Let me know what happens.

It might be a stupid question but have you tried Aura instead of Igo. Works perfect for me from SD card. (fast GPS fix too)
