I don't really want to do that for several reasons: It consumes bandwidth to simply view the photos. It is very slow to browse through photos, especially if you are on 3G or Edge networks. It requires an internet connection and if I go visit rural areas I won't have access to the internet. I...

Hello, I need a way to sync photos from my PC to my android phone (Samsung Captivate). The most important requirement here is that it syncs "optimized" versions of my photos. Each of my photos are 5MB each and I do not need that kind of DPI on my phone. I'd prefer much smaller sizes of each...

Is there a way to configure the Android Calendar to sync backwards & forwards a specific range? For example, I can't see events on my calendar a year back, which probably means the phone is not pulling down events that far back. I would like to be able to tell my phone to sync calendar events "5...

Count me in!

Pretty sure I'm running v9.1.3 Unfortunately that thread has 500+ pages and it's not a very reliable source of information. Can you link me to a specific post in the thread since you seem to have seen this already? I'll do some thread-specific searches but I usually don't come up with much...

I'm using Cognition 2.2 to get Froyo on my captivate. For some reason, I don't have the unlock/silent mode sliders on my lock screen. My lock screen should look like the following screenshot: Right now my lock screen is simply blank with the time/date at the bottom of the screen. Why is it so...

I noticed that when I have Google Voice running in the background (It shows up in the task manager), my battery life suffers greatly when it is sitting idle on a table all day. It burns out before night time arrives after unplugging it from a full charge in the morning. However, when I kill the...

Thanks for your answers. However, I'm not sure how changing the number of articles to store locally addresses this concern. Do you mean to imply that if I, for example, set only 10 articles to store locally for a specific feed, I have to re-sync to get another 10? If so, I don't really like...

I'm looking for an RSS reader for my Samsung Captivate. I have a few specific requirements, though, and I don't want to purchase anything until I know for sure they support it: Must support sync with Google Reader Typically each of my feeds contain 500+ items at any time. As I read through it...

I tend to agree for the most part, except when I need to know the date. Also I've been looking for a way to possibly remove the clock on the notification bar entirely, although there doesn't seem to be a way to do this at the moment.

That's unfortunate. I already set the option to sync only contacts with numbers, I guess that'll have to do for now.

Have you had a chance to try this yet?

In the stock browser on my captivate, there is a bookmark called "Galaxy S Support" which I cannot delete. When I do try to delete it, I get the message "This bookmark cannot be deleted". Anyone know of a way to delete this waste of space? Update: Go to browser. Go to bookmarks. See that one...

When I go to Display Options, I get a list of accounts. My exchange AND google accounts are listed. However, this is a list of check boxes and there is no "drop down" to set. It appears as if this feature has been removed on the captivate? Thanks, I actually like this better than how the iPhone...

Some more follow up questions... How do I upgrade android apps? On my old iPhone, I got a list of all available upgrades in the app store. Does Android Market have such a feature? How will I know when upgrades are available for apps I've installed? I notice in many browsers (Dolphin HD, Steel...
