Correct it will work better. I had tons of issues getting it to work from my phone. so I just did everything from the computer and then downloaded it from my phone's browser.

[Q] Application backup/restore.

I came from a hero running cyanogen6 I flashed many roms and nightlies while using the hero. If I remember correctly when I would factory reset to install a fresh Rom my Google account would automatically re-download the apps I had previously downloaded.
It was my understanding this was a standard feature of 2.2. But my shift does not do this.
So my question is "what is up?"
was this just a feature of cm6?
Is my phone the only one that doesn't do this?
Somebody set me straight on this issue, as it makes switching roms much more work.

Htc took it out. It's a feature of aosp 2.2 and above.
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Well that was an easy answer.
So if I use an asop Rom it should auto download?

Yeah but probably not to what you were on your past aosp rom, but maybe what you got now.

Depends on the gapps ver.
On my heroc I kept two sets of gapps, one full and one tiny. They restored entirely different sets of apps everyime I flashed (for some reason, I just picked one randomly every day for about 3 1/2 months, loved aospMod.)

All I know is this worked when I came from the semi stock rom that I was using as my daily driver.

The only Shift ROM I've experianced this on is Evervolv. I believe CM7 should do this too but it's either not implemented for the Shift yet or not working.

[Q] Stay awake while charging available?

I used stay awake while charging while my phone plays music all night at work. No Vibrant rom I've tried has the option. On my G2 and every other phone I've had in the debugging options there was an option to stay awake while charging... any way to get that on the Vibrant?

Sorry guess this should've gone in q&a
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Probably because you'll burn your screen in with this option. I wouldn't recommend it.
There's such an option on Vibrant, Can't recall where I found it though.
Settings>Applications>Development>Stay Awake
Im on the latest Trigger, but I know for a fact its been there since I bought my Vibrant.

All I have is enable debugging and allow mock locations. Time for new rom I imagine.

The option isn't in a stock Rom. And I'm not sure how wide spread it is on custom roms either, but bionix has it.

Having to reboot every day

Does anyone elses galaxy s need rebooting about once a day because after a while launchers reboot when you go to your homescreen and apps always act, like they've been force closed when you go back on then after exiting using the home button?
Also, when I'm using my phone and I get a call it hangs for about 5 seconds before my ringtone comes on. is this normal?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Download and install an apps from market . . Free . . Called 'Fast Reboot' . . It don't actually reboot but close the unnecessary programs within seconds and make the phone much faster . . It works for me. . .
It might be your rom.. What rom are you using? New ones (even stock) somehow feel better than the old ones
I'm on darky's 10.1 and I already have fast reboot but it doesn't help.

Is it just me with this problem then?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Same problem here, I'm on darky 10.1 too. Apps keep acting as mentionned above
I have already flashed the rom again but it doesn't seem to work =/

I'm now on simply honey 3.8 on the dark core kernel with ext4 lagfix active. I get around 1900 on quadrant but it still feels as though I need to reboot every day becausw at some point in the day it starts getting really laggy and slows down.

install a cache cleaner - runs daily
Mine is on stock JPJV6 and i don't reboot it neither it does itself no matter how many days it's running. I think last time i restarted it after 9 days to clear the battery stats after full charge.
Try a different kernel. Dark core just didn't play nice for me. Also try one of the ram hacks out there (juwes for example) as I found it made things better regarding the home screen.

I've never had these problems on my phone, and from the replies it seems that very few other people have, so it might be caused by your combination of non-
standard software.
Just as a test, try loading GB 2.3.3. on your phone, in it's standard form, and see if you get the same problems, if you do it's a hardware problem, if you don't it's a problem with your choice of Roms.
Best of luck.

Cwm not working correctly --sub menus

OK so I am new to the mt4g... I currently use a sgs4g, the rest of my family uses the mt4g and they live in Indiana while I live in Texas. I followed the guides to get the phone rooted with s-off. I installed the cwm from rom manager becuz I could not find an up to date thread. Anyways when I reboot in to cwm it seems to work fine except when I try to go into a submenu it just gives me a blank screen with no text. I was going to do a nandroid back up but this is not possible without getting into the submenus of cwm. I then tried rom manager to flash virtuous unity and it worked perfectly. I am unsure of what is going on exactly but I am afraid that if the phone happens to soft brick I will not be able to get back into recovery or even if I do I cannot flash anything or be able to unbrick the phone. I am not nooby I have been working with android for a while now and have soft bricked my sgs4g many times while learning. Almost hard bricked due to wrong bootloaders. Anyways one thing I left out is if I try to click the power button while I am in one of the blank submenus it just goes back to the main menu.
Any help would be very much appreciated and also I do not have a usable computer ATM so everything I do is with my phone or someone else's.
Thanks guys for all the fantastic threads for the mt4g, it only took me about 2hrs to get s-off and roms installed, minus the 4 hrs it took me to realize that only the final s-off method works on the 0.86.0000 bootloaders.
Again thank you.

Are you hitting the power button? If so, you need to click the track pad to select a sub menu in recovery. This happened to me as well until I tried the track pad and it works flawlessly!!!!
Try using the track pad to select your option... Sounds like you are using the power button to make selections in recovery which just puts the phone to sleep, so to speak...

Oh I didn't think to try that because I'm not use to having a trackpad. Thank you for your help.
