Help! My picz and vidz go poof!

I was messing around with qik app trying to enable live streaming and now all my pictures and videos are gone. When I say all I mean all! Is there anything I can do about it... I've been up all night due to some very important top secret stuff I need back in my possession.

have you checked qik?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Yea... There not on my sd card at all. Nor on the qik site. Is there a way I can recover them...
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
thats a negative, if they are not on your sd card where they suppose to be, then they definitely lost for ever... sorry bud.
dont give up so quickly... before you do anything to your sd card, download "pandora recovery" its free and i have used it to successfully restore deleted items from usb/sd memory
@dr154.... Your losing the theory of having a droid... "In a world that doesn't... DROID DOES!" downloaded diskdigger 0.8. I was able to recover 89.9% of my pictures and videos. Better than "sorry bud"

I got beef the youtube app, and I'm sure they wont listen to little ol me

Does anyone else have a problem with the youtube app, being that it doesn't choose to watch videos in HQ by default. For each video I find my self racing in the menu to choose watch in high quality before the video starts. If I don't do it quick enough, the play time toggle pops up and I end up fast forwarding to the end, and then having to go to the menu again.. Why can't youtube just play HQ by default on my beautiful screen?? Anyone else feel my pain?

Use the mobile website. It's better.
Hmmm my Vibrant seems to default to HQ. Wonder why? I did just get it yesterday.
If your on wifi it defaults to hq if your on data it uses lq.
It happens to me too. I just use www.m.youtube.com
Much better and you can see new videos from your subscriptions.

lol that makes sense
there was a thread in the apps section for this. there is a youtube.apk that has hq set to default

I hear that in 2.2 samsung will add a HQ button so you dont have to rush to the menu.

This is just what I was looking for. Awesome! Upgraded. The mobile site is just as bad guys, you have to go through hoops to get hq.

I forgot how I updated it, I think I used atrackdog ***aptoide***

Where should I start?

I owned the vibrant maybe for a month or less, ever since then I made a lot of errors, I had freezes that made me delete all personal data, once or twice I had to reisntall google apps. The one thing I hate is when uninstalling stuff data stays there. As of now I cant open google maps because it will force close, I haven't tryed deleting it and reinstalling it, anther problem is my connection, I have full bars but.i dont get edge or 3g, I have walked the streets and the problem stays there so I want to restore it completely, where should I start?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I would say after that many problems and errors I would have to admit defeat and reuben the phone under warranty and see what t mobile or samsung would do to resolve the issues...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Not sure what you've been doing to your phone to have all those issues, but why not do a factory reset to the phone, and start from scratch?
Lol yeah actually probably a better option than returning the phone, at least to start.

At least he gets a sandwich out of the deal.
Some very interesting typos since getting the illustious swype keyboard.
When my 3G says it's working and no map data arrives, my GPS just sits there and my screen lags after all fixes, I fumble when someone calls as I don't know which widget to use...I just smile to myself and thank God I don't have leprosy. Just be grateful you have a phone that makes calls LOL...sorry for sarcasm.
Lol thats what I mean by a complete restore,.i know I need to use odin but "where to start" btw thanks

Not able to access websites??

Ok every once in awhile I try to access a website...it starts to go there then it immediately goes to the home screen ...
Why would this do this.
Like today organicdeals.com just happen to be the one. I tried in all browsers. Mirin, dolphin, explorer...
Why before the page completely loads would it do this?
I tried a different phone no problem. These are regular websites...nothing bad

well after a conference call with motorola and att. Did hard reset, neither knew what was the problem, so I have to go exchange it. Last day to do so.
UGH to set it up again......
Google saves your apps now and contacts so there shouldn't be too much to setup at least :/

Help

Ok I love my epic but ever since I updated to 2.2 the orientation had been extremely slow my phone is stock and I've tried a factory and reformatting my sd. I took it to sprint and they told me it was the software, but when I looked at the demos in the store there was no orientation delay. Any suggestions?

I would say try to Odin the stock tar file and see if it helps

look thru the forums for the 'lagfix', its the adb command yamahasensorcalibutil or something like that.. its just calibrating your sensors... works great on a good install of most eb13 or ec05 install...
Use terminal emulator, if you don't have it yet get it from the market. Open it and type /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha place the phone on a flat surface, and hit Enter. Reboot the phone and sensors will function at normal speed.
You ca use adb also. Good luck

I believe you need to be rooted.
Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926098
Oh yeah, sorry im always doing that, assuming users are rooted lol

Doh! +1 on rooting assumption...
For the short periods of time I have been on total stock builds, when I first loaded EC05, it had the least lag out of any.... try to reflash? Consider taking the plunge to root? We have the neglected bastard child of sprintsung... what they dont do or dont do right we have to do ourselves...
Callibrate it using the option in display settings while putting it flat on the underside of a table.
Trust me, it works.

So it sounds like the only way to do this is to root my phone

Well it seems laying the phone face down on the horizontal calibration helped

You can either root it and fix it, or take it to Sprint, have them ODIN it which won't fix it and have them order a replacement which takes 3 days.

Or you can calibrate it using the technique I posted a link to.

That doesn't fix the sensor lag, in fact for many people that has made it worse.
Feel free to read the original sensor lag fix thread if you don't believe me.
