Hi.

Hopfully a quick question about flashing. I noticed you need to install Samsung_CDMA_modem_4_1_.34.zip. Being from Australia, we have gsm / 3G rather than CDMA, I want to make sure that this file is to enable OCTANS to communicate with the phone, rather than having any regional specific purpose.

Thanks in advance,


Stuart.

I found something useful, maybe you all know about it. If you want to force Xtra to update everytime you connect to a Wifi access point, just open some registry editor, go to HKLM/Software/Samsung/RIL/GPS/XTRA/AutoDownloadWifi and change the value from 0 to 1.

I'm still learning about my phone but does this work on my i8000? I've installed Garmin mobile xt but haven't quite figured out what the deal is with Xtra updates?  I'm only using wifi at this point- no data plan.  How do I know its downloading updates?

There is something that really annoys me about O2:
I have set as SMS notification sound a longer ~15 second sound (so i can be sure i hear it in crowded places).
But it plays the whole sound each time i receive a new SMS, even if i'm using the phone and tapping the screen, no matter what app i'm running, it just keeps playing the whole sound until it ends. Only by pressing the 'end call' button i can stop it from playing, but it's annoying because that button also gets me to desktop. No other button works.
For instance, if i'm already in Inbox reading SMSs, and i receive a new SMS, i have to press the 'end call' button to stop it from ringing, which exits to desktop, and then i have to go back to Inbox to read it.   Each time i receive a SMS, i have to exit whatever app i'm using, by pressing that button just to stop it from ringing! I don't know if only i encounter this problem, or if this is a common problem. I've done some searching and found nothing about this yet. I'm using 6.5.3

Is there a solution to stop the incoming SMS notification sound from ringing, just by tapping the screen?

Thanks!

Hi,

Not really necessary to flash the CSC part, just flash the PDA part to avoid any issues.

SMS notifications should not always be longer than 5 to 10 seconds. As you placed a notification sound that runs for 15 seconds it will play the sound until the end of its duration. Just a tip keep your notification sound shorted.
