[Q] Samsung Contact/Dialer - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was at the ATT store tonight playing around the with the Samsung captivate. I absolutely LOVE the dialer/contact app on the Samsung androids. I took a spin through the captivate forum here and did not find it, so I was wondering if anyone has managed to extract that program and use it on the TB or any HTC phone.

[Q] Will the Nexus S help the Galaxy S line down the road?

Does anyone think that there may be a possibility that with Google's using a phone so similar to the Galaxy S that it may help out further development with the Galaxy S series? Think about it - the Hummingbird is about to go mainstream as far as development goes!
I've bought a Vibrant in the past and ended up selling it because of the horrid GPS issues (even with all the GPS "fixes" and custom ROMs), only to find out down the road that I never use the GPS functionality anyways.
I have a G2 right now - I like it, but the hinge on the keyboard leaves me concerned about how long the phone will last. I tried the MT4G as well - I simply couldn't tolerate the interface and development for that phone is pretty weak at the moment.
The crazy thought running through my head is that since I never use the GPS anyhow, I might want to see about getting a Vibrant again. I'm not worried about 2.2 not having been officially released yet, nor about 2.3 as I know before too long someone will port it to the Vibrant - I rarely ever use stock ROMs for more than a few days anyhow.
So, all GPS issues aside, am I foolish for thinking that it may be a good idea to pick up another Vibrant?
If you're thinking of picking up a Vibrant why not just wait until Decem--wait, nevermind. Want to buy my Vibrant?
Mostly because I don't want to lay out the $500 plus for the Nexus S when I can pick up a used Vibrant for cheap or trade someone my G2.
No other thoughts on this one?
I'll trade you. The gps issues are gone. Long gone.
Only reason I want a g2 is because I love HTC it feels nice and sturdy and has a flash.

How did u fix GPS?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I really never had a "major" gps issue to begin with, just with the amount of time that it took to get a lock. But as builds have progressed ... JK* JI* now JL1 its just gotten to the point where I get a lock in 3-5 seconds INSIDE the house. Plus, I've never run into a tenth of the issues that alot of members talk of having here. I think its mostly on the user, not the device.
Lag fix? Never have, never will!

GPS issues are mostly addressed with the latest ROM's.
The accuracy leaves to be desired, but if don't place your life on it you are fine.

New Apparently Market

So does anyone have the new Market
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S2
I have market version 3.1.5
this market version has been around a couple months.
Is this the market you are referring, or a newer one?

I got it after I rooted the phone.

When I booted the phone, it went to the old-style market. After a couple of hours, I went back in and it had changed to the current version.
It will always convert to the newer one unless you continually go back and swap it back. No use in fighting it, just get use to it.
3.1.5 here
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
The tmobile rep for my Target mobile kiosk (where I work) said the market looks different depending on the phone you have. I told him it always updates to the same one on all phones and he denied this... He said the green one is for some phones and the new dark one is for others. It pisses me off when ppl working in an area don't know what they're talking about -_____-

That's what I thought, but I have had my phone all day and using it extensively and it has still not changed.
i like the new market though! Very nice, simple, and fluid UI. Something I felt the Android was missing
New market 3.x sucks - it's buggy as hell.
Hopefully the downloads to /cache bug is less of an annoyance on our devices than the Infuse

ICS Premium Suite Birthday Card Maker?

These may seem like a silly questions, however I was watching the premium suite and one of the things I saw was some kind of 3D birthday card app - My first question is where is it? I have upgraded to ICS and I am having a difficult time finding it. My second question is, does the person receiving one of these cards also need to have this app on their phone?
Thank you in advance for any help.
The app is called My Story. To the best of my knowledge, the recipient needs to have the app as well, but I could be wrong.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yeah, the person you are sending it to has to have the app and be a friend of yours on it. How many people have the note though :/ seriously....
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.android.app.mystory
I have to download it from market manually on my phone and then my friend's. The above information is all correct. Neat app, but a little restricting in its use.

The app is now compatible with many Samsung devices, so it's not just Note to Note. My wife has an S3 and worked fine.

Hi! I'm new here, and was wondering how you add friends to the My Story app? I noticed that you were able to send something to your wife through it, and she doesn't have a Note. I REALLY appreciate your help!

I just got the official ICS update here in Canada...
I tried to test out the My Story App on my note and on my dad's note both running stock ICS that got released today but we were both able to send without any error to each other except we don't seem to receive the letter... Does anyone else have this problem or might know how to fix this? Tried on both Wifi and on data (connections are both really strong) so it is not internet problem.
Thank you.

Samsung Hub - Where's it gone?

I recently got my S5 and was surprised to see there is no Samsung Hub installed. I tried the Play Store and it says app not compatible with device.
I tweeted Samsung to ask I how get all my purchased content from the hub to my S5 and their answer was to use Samsung Link on my phone, well that didn't work.
My next stop was at the new Samsung Experience store, to say they were clueless is an understatement, the advisor was tapping away at my phone trying to find it, he then resorted to using Chrome on my phone and Googling the answer to which he said I should download the apk file, well I've just done that and that didn't work.
Any advice on how to rectify this would be appreciated, I just want all the films that I've previously purchased in the past from the hub onto my Galaxy S5.
Cheers
