@djmykey like Vikid said, I think he realized the service center guys are morons but yeah i agree that he would have been in a soup if it didn't work after he took it back cuz the service center guys would have washed their hands off of any responsibility..
Query:
How to know if the phone is fully charged, when its charging in Phone-ON mode
Reason i ask this becuase, the small green battery indicator shows full, but when i turn off the mobile and charge, the bar is only half full and keeps charging
secondly, Is there any difference in charging time, when done in OFF and ON mode
I am planning of updating to 2.1 on weekend.
Can you please give details of Firmware Version, Software you used (any link if possible)
Also, some thumb rules to follow (if any) to avoid brick...
Also, if I want to move back to 1.5, I assume that firmware will also be available and the process would be same. Right? (asking this coz the cell belongs to a friend..and if he is not happy with 2.1, I will have to get it back to 1.5 before handing it over to him)
^^ yes it does...while charging, if the screen is off, press the lock button once the screen will comeup... you can see your network operator/time & date & below that, it will say either Battery Charging or Battery fully charged.
Yipeee I got my Spica back today with 2.1 Eclair loaded. Samsung ppl flashed it somehow without me losing the pics that were taken :S This is somehow weird. Anyhow the phone is awesome again and Im gonna try putting contacts onto my phone now.. answering the phone without knowing who it is, is a little scary
yep...1 make sure you restart your system after : (before starting odin make sure KIES/NPS is not running through the task manager)
1> Installing NPS/KIES
2> Just after the drivers are installed when you connect the phone in download mode for teh first time.
And if you face problems :
1> Select Debug only in Odin and also check PDA format... wait for about 30 seconds...if nothing happens, Close Odin disconnect phone , remove battery , reinsert, and again connect after getting into download mode...
2> if it gets stuck at setup connection ... restart system and again put phone into download mode ..after reinserting the battery.
Remember to restart after every driver installation.
MOST IMPORTANT OF THEM ALL : Use the new OPS file - spica_jc3.ops
