$60 per month(anybody that was on AT&T know what i mean lmao)but when I jailbroke the Iphone my favorite app on cydia was a app called VWallpapers I love this app and trust me if y'all see this app y'all will love it to.

My brother just "Upgraded" to that phone, lol. My advice would be to learn how to program Livewallpapers
I tried to watch to video but I don't speak ghetto
(I hope you can take a joke, I am just messin man.) That is a sick wall paper.
I hope your joking.
That would rape the battery worse than Live Wallpapers and I have Live Wallpapers on my 2G iPhone.
My EVO's battery just dropped by like 50% when I imagined an app like that. I think its crying. You scared it.

Yeah now but how long did it take apple to figure that one out apple is always late enabling stuff but there so popular when they do get it people start claiming they invented it. Like watch when the new iphone drops people are going to swear that they started the video talk and i know i work all apple fanboys thats why i couldnt wait to get to work and pull out the EVO and watch there face drop
if you have a nice collection of wallpapers i highly sugggest Wallswitch its free in the market, and it just cycles the images from whatever folder you point it to and at what ever interval you say. I like it better that lwp, less battery drain as the backbround isnt constantly moving.
or you can always try the lwp called camerapaper, also free in the market. it sets your background to whatever the rear facing camera sees. this app worked better on my Hero though.

Ohhhhh, I see now...
Seriously, for a tech review site/channel it's incredibly unprofessional. No clue if this is some sort of a joke but he basically says the phone is rubbish and android multitasking is rubbish as it lags. This after good reviews from the same guy not long ago.
Just leave the phone to finish its media scanning and it works fine for me...

Wow, I couldn't even finish watching that. That's kind of a huge user fail. Who doesn't wait until a device is all the way done booting?

i would say the only reason it lags like this is because of the media scan that these phones do at the begining.
he's a dumb ass. what a pointless video.
This was an obvious attempt at trying to bash the best phone on the market. Fail Bash is Fail.
What a joke!
The guy runs a Windows Mobile OS site/blog/video channel. Fanboys will diss other products just for the hell of it.
LOL
He has all those apps installed and an other than stock background configured so he has to know how it really operates. Talk about a BS video.
Thats like turning on a computer and trying to play a game right away. You have to let the damn thing finish booting up first. Honestly if he waited a minute then used the phone there would be no slow down.
Obvious bashing is obvious
lolol...what an idiot.
This was obviously a smear campaign.
I think he has a valid point from a user experience perspective. It annoys the heck out of me that the media scanner brings the phone to a grinding halt at start up.

Yea, I get annoyed sometimes with it too. Luckily, in the Froyo update Samsung adds a percentage to it in the notification drawer so you can see how long it'll take instead of just waiting. Not to mention the rotation lock button in the drawer as well.
Just more reasons to be excited about the update and gps fix.
As for the video, I couldn't finish watching it either. It's the most unprofessional and uneducated video I have ever seen from PocketNow. And this is coming from someone that watches PocketNow all the time coming from years of WinMo usage.
I can do the same thing by hammering Win7, WinXP, Win98 et al trying to load up apps, open the clock, WIFI menu. Its the same effect
"APPLICATION NOT RESPONDING" is the biggest notification I get on Win7
I wonder how Windows Phone 7 will fair? I have already posted many critical points but the MS worshippers there must want to burn me at the stake already!
From the guys Twitter posts it looks like he has a small axe to grind against Android
I cannot post his Twitter link directly (Newbie poster) but his user name in Twitter is adamzea

I don't think is point is valid period. On a cold winter night and day, do you start your car and immediately put it in drive/reverse, do you start your computer and right after windows boot up do you start launching programs out the wazoo....I think his whole purpose was to bash Android. There wasn't one valid point throughout that whole review.
the scanner does suck, this is my 4th android phone and not even my hero would take so long. but either way its a nice phone and that vid is lame lol.

How much storage space is there on your Hero to scan?
Now, I have the Tab and I couldn't help but notice the default camera program only lets you take pics with the front facing camera and not record video with it. So I was wondering if their was like an app for this or some tinkering with the software and what that could be done to get this working?
I think you can do that with the Qik video chat program, but I haven't really tinkered around with it

Yea, it sucks. I mean I don't understand. I mean in theory the Tab's FFC should be able to record video, but this is not the case at all.
I tried the Qik app and it is working for me for front-facing recording. I had the T-Mo version when I first got my Tab that sometimes froze, but went to the Qik site and got an update that worked much better. Haven't had any problems with it yet.

You can love it all you want, but unless you heavily MOD this phone up (Root + Lagfix and more often than not a Custom ROM), the out of box experience is similar to these.
All of these lag/free/blackscreen issues still exist on JI6 for the Vibrant. I may put a video on YouTube with a demonstration soon, cause it's a myth, apparently.

This is kind of ironic...
I was just going to post how my stock JI6 vibrant is running pretty well; I opened and closed a bunch of stuff in a short period of time, but then tried to open the gallery and bam, my phone froze. No response from the keys, then I went to lock the phone, but it never turned back on.
Just did a battery pull
I've had mine freeze up and require a battery pull just swiping to another home screen.
im running stock ji6, no problems ever, with gps, gallery, lags.
Both of the youtube vids are with the i9000.
Maybe the vibrant just works great in Oregon! =)
I think if it's going to "just work" anywhere it should be either Mountain View, CA or Cupertino, CA.

When mine behaves like that I unload some apps. Even though it has 16 gigs, it seems you really can't just add apps until it's full.
I also suspect there is some kind of multitasking pre-emption problem too. For example, when you install an app, the phone virtually freezes when it's actually writing the app to disk. Maybe it's just a disk format or sd driver problem.

No. these phones have terrible I/O performance. Notice in thr video when she runs twicca it freezes while loading data (most likely from cache). It's due to the RFS filesystem Samsung uses.
The fact that those are i9k's doesn't change anything. All the stock Galaxy S phones have this issue, save for the Nexus.

This is a problem on JI6. Nothing short of a different firmware version will fix the pause when installing apps. Not a "lag fix" either.
I have no problems with my Vibrant. Trolls will Troll because that's what they do, but the 0.001% of owners here don't give a good idea of what regular owners really think. The ones that consistently complain about how horrible the phone is and continues to use it, even after claiming to have sold it or will be, should just be ignored. There is an ulterior motive here.
I have stock JL5, and it runs great. JI6 has a problem with the Gallery, well known and I posted a solution for it already. But JL5 is running so good there really isn't much reason to be running JI6 over it.

Geez, my phone sure has never behaved like that (thankfully!); and I'm "out of the box." I can see how it would drive you nuts, lead you to "lag-fixes," etc.! Just want to point out that the problem sure ain't universal, for whatever reason. (I don't have a ton of apps installed; I wonder if that makes a difference.)
Occasionally, there will be a slight pause when opening an app or something, but it doesn't ruin my day...

I keep getting nervous about rooting, because I see people who write stuff in these and phandroid's forums about peoples phones starting to act weird right after they do it. I'm also worried about how to do updates to newer versions of android, and how make sure I have my contacts backed up because my buddy did his EVO and told me he lost all hiscontacts and wasn't able to sync them with google.

First time owning a smartphone and first time owning an Android phone, I rooted the phone on day one, nothing bad happened. All I gained are benefits, adblock, costume roms (froyo 2.2), root explorer, voodoo, etc
Yeah, I've had it for two weeks and love it! I can only imagine how much better it'll be when I do root it. Should I just follow the tutorial on here? And then what roms does everyone suggest?
First of all, id just like to say, i love my epic, however.... i had it for almost a month and today i tried the video camera which is supposed to be good... right? Well unless im doing something wrong, it looks like crap. If anyone is moving fast it has a HUGE trail behind them. Is there something i can do to fix this issue? i have everything on max settings.

I haven't tweaked any settings and it's perfectly fine. Try deleting the Data under Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Camera > 'Clear Data'.
See if it works better that way. My playback is incredibly high quality and I don't touch any settings.
Strange I've taken quite a few vids with my Epic and never had that issue. In fact they generally turn out quite well.
do this: wave your hand infront of it and see if you can see the tracers.... thats waht im talking about... so for instance, if i record someone breakdancing or something else that they are moving fast, its ALL tracers and looks terrible. P.S. that didnt work

for real? wtf... yeah im running the eb13 ext4 with the OC kernal... so how would i go about fixing this? downgrading back to dk18?
Yeap people are downgrading back to DK18 but I like froyo too much so I will wait for the fix
Yup, I would say screw that, and just downgrade back to Froyo dk28, it's what I have and until I see some decent roms with EB13 I will probably stick with DK28 until, I was OC'd with Genocide too, but that causing my phone to freeze sporatically,.
So I say stick with a dk rom.
There is absolutely no reason to"upgrade" to eb13 until there are some good custom roms. I'm running viper trinity with genocide kernel and my phone flies with no issues whatsoever. Why would I want to"upgrade" to a stock rom with evidently lots of bugs?
I say hold off, let these great devs work their magic, and then flash a true "upgrade."

Which camera App?
I have found the camera on the Epic to be very inconsistent. Sometimes the photos look great, rivaling a good point-n-shoot. But, other times, it's just not sharp. It doesn't help that the lens sticks out and seems to get dirty just from holding the camera.
Has anyone found a better camera app?
I was able to record a basketball game...and even zoomed in all the way and out while recrding while they were running and there was absolutely NO blur. It was buttery smooth.
Infact, whenever someone watches a video on my phone, they ALL say "...wow....your phone takes really clear vids!"
Unfortunately tho, I don't see that being the case anymore if I take a video in lowlight
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
It's not junk. It's the EB13 ROM causing problems. I'm still on DK28 and my cam is perfect....although a little grainy in low light.
The irony is that Samsung makes cameras, so one would think this is an area where they'd have an edge over HTC...

It's the speed of the micro SD. Get a class 6 and it wont happen anymore.
Lag on preview
Are you looking at the resultant videos, or the screen when you're taking the movies? Because during video the screen is definitely laggy. As for the motion artifacting, well, you're not going to be able to catch even moderately high speed activities with a sensor the size of the Epic's in low light. That's because it looks like the Epic doesn't adjust the ISO when it gets dark, it just increases exposure time for each frame. This keeps the images from being terribly grainy, but also makes everything look like slomo watercolors when it gets dark enough. If you want good motion capture in low light situations, you're going to have to get something with a larger sensor. Actually, I'm surprised how nice the epic's movies look. I'm the first one to criticize samsung, but they did pretty well with the limited sensor size.
