[LG Optimus 2x] zarras:
Can you...somehow remove (gently) the plastic glass from the back cover?

edit, im looking at some pics of the back cover, seems impossible to remove it w/o damaging the rest....thank you LGGGGG :(
[LG Optimus 2x] marvincmy:
OReally?:eek:

What kind of tools should I use for the polishing?

Only alcohol is need? Any other material? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] jan1000:
Question is: is it really the glass itself that causes the problem ?

Or could it be that because of the bad positioning of the lens cover fingerprints / dirt can easaly create a fatty film on the glass?
[LG Optimus 2x] atkhobby:
Did you polish the front AND back of the glass or just the side facing outwards?
[LG Optimus 2x] spawndk:
sounds to me like it could be related to the light sensor being disturbed by the cover
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
Yes and no, it must be some bad glass, becouse it's enough to just have one fingerprint and the pics sucks again. Or if its too far from the actual lens, so its that what f*cks it up? (It kind of focuses alittle one the fat/dirt) However, I've never got this problem with any other phone, my old N900 for example doesn't care if it's got fingerprints or not. Ofc it doesnt have two glass like the LG have, but thats no excuse. :p

atkhobby: Yes, I polished both sides of the batterycover. I drained some "cottonsticks" (tops) with alcohol and just polished. :p BUT, when i touched the glass on the cover again, the picture is worse, but not as bad as first.

Maybe someone knows of something that make glas fat-resistent? :p I mean, some phones the screen just get fatty almost directly, and some is very resistant and can be cleaned easy.

And again, I hope you can understand my not so good english. :D
[Desire General] LaMpiR:
I have made some trick with adb but it doesn't work or partially anyway. It installed one app I think on the sd and all other normally on phone memory. I have 2.2 normal android, not rooted or anything. How can I install apps on sd card without rooting my phone? I will root it eventually just don't have time for it these days.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Go Settings > Applications > pick an app > click move to SD

The app will only move to SD card if it can. Not all apps can but most of them.
[Desire General] LaMpiR:
I did that but it limits quite a lot :(
[Desire General] shankly1985:
Have a think about rooting your phone and installing custom rom if you haven't already. I use starburst rom data2sd I have 1.7GB install memory :D
[Desire General] ivantodorov:
Тhan is needed and ext3/4 partition on memory card.
[Desire General] LaMpiR:
Will probably do that in a week or two. Is this option available, I mean to install directly on sd card, on android 2.3?
[Desire General] shankly1985:
Think its the same as now, the problem with app2sd is say you have a 20mb App and move it to SD card say 16mb was moved to SD the other 4mb will still be on phone memory. Soon enough you'll still fill it quite quick, Using data2sd it puts everythink onto the SD card and you set how big you want your internal memory MAX size 2gb.

I have 76 apps and still over 1.2gb space to install apps :) read more into doing this you will also need a SD card class over 2. Am using a 16gb class 4 from play.com cost me £15 great buy Pny is the manufacture.
[Desire General] Rem-X:
I love A2sd+ nothing else to use! :D
[Desire General] shankly1985:
App2sd+ is just the same has stock app2sd, apps still store on phones internal.

App2sd is just pure win :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0n1s4c:
hello,

it's yet me!!

I'd like to S-OFF my HTC Desire:

it's an A88181 (see here: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2251&c=htc_desire_htc_bravo ) so a GSM one

It have HBOOT: 0.75 / S-On

and:

Androïd version: 2.2

ROM Radio: 5.14.05.17

Kernel version: 2.6.32.15

Build number: 2.29.405.5

Software: LeeDroid v2.3d A2SD+

Browser version: Webkit 3.1

is it possible?

what HBOOT take/choose?

what PB99IMG? what is it PB99IMG? what use?

what must I do before? (nandroid is done)

thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederikh:
Follow this guide:

w w w.addictivetips.com/mobile/gain-s-off-on-htc-desire-gsm-with-alpharev-1-8-custom-hboot/

(remove spaces between www)

if you don't know how to boot from a usb drive/cd you just go into BIOS (press either F2, F10, del, or esc while booting, different computers use different keys), navigate to boot order/boot options and move you cd drive/usb port up top.

I did this on my A8181 and it works flawlesly :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Just read the S-OFF thread on here - don't need to go to another site :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0n1s4c:
I did it, everything seems OK, but the Phone don't boot: it stays eternally at the first splash screen :mad:

did I brick it?

In Bootloader, it displays that:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
No, boot in recovery and flash a rom. If there is no recovery flash one with fastboot, then flash a rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0n1s4c:
already tested to flash LeeDroid 2.3d ROM: no luck!!

I have Clockworlmod recovery, v.3.0.0.5: it's via it, I flash the ROM

but it seems there is hope! Good news!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doulnut:
Maybe the HBOOT Oxygen is the problem. I don't think LeeDroid fit into oxygen table. Try to flash another HBOOT
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
The alternative hboot doesn't change the size of the internal memory, it just changes partition layout. Leedroid will never fit the oxygen hboot. Is you want to keep using leedroid use stock bravo layout or slim the rom down yourself and use bravo sense.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivantodorov:
Is there a risk for phone switching from s-on to s-off?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doulnut:
Unfortunately, yes. If you accidentally flash a corrupted HBOOT image, your phone will be bricked. You can read more about the s-off's risks on alpharev site.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0n1s4c:
Yes, I used Bravo Oxygen: I'll try Bravo Data ++

is it good for LeeDroid 2.3d?

Ok done, no change

- flash Data++

- full wipe

- flash LeeDroid

same thing!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doulnut:
The DATA++ table do not fit the LeeDroid. Maybe you should flash the bravo stock table instead
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0n1s4c:
Done!! It boots!! You rock, all of U guys!!

Thanks for U XDA!!!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sorodrigo:
Microsoft has started to distribute its first full Windows Phone 7 update.

The company began pushing out “NoDo” to devices on Tuesday after a number of device ROMs leaked to the Internet early. Microsoft’s first Windows Phone 7 platform update features copy and paste and a whole lot more. Windows Phone users who received the “NoDo” update early on Tuesday have confirmed that Microsoft is pushing out build 7390 under the “Windows Phone Update – March 2011″ push
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] JonnieLasVegas:
I read this earlier too. I'm pretty excited for this & hopefully it shouldn't be too long before the amazing dev's on here will have it ready for our HD2's! Wish I had the time to work on this myself, but will leave it to the experts for now.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shooter16:
Hey guys.I am searching of an app that is monitoring daya traffic for each apn.For example in Romania i have a plan on Cosmote with 250 mb ESPECIALLY for online games and other stuff. So i need to change the APN every time i want to play something online .So i have two different APN's. One is named webnwalk and one Broadband data 3G.I want to monitor the traffic for the apn Broadband data 3g.For the other one i have unlimited data, but with certains ports closed.Thx in advance.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] L3DZ3PP:
Did you find any app for your problem above? I'm interested too...
[Xoom General] dudeimgeorge:
So Koush on twitter just announced he is returning his xoom.

which ****en sucks, i hope he is kind enough to give us RM when the sdcard is supported.

and also reports all over the net today say the motorola will stop production on xooms in June...OF THIS YEAR

this all kinda sucks in the eyes of consumers (me + you) for software developers and even accessories. I dont know, maybe im kinda freaking but, it looks as though the motorola xoom is the nexus one of android tablets....i just hope it stays that way in the dev world.
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
Today seems to be a dark day for the Xoom community as well. All these bad news about the end of production, people canceling Xoom orders for the new G-Tab, now Koush leaving. But life goes on and I love my Xoom! After all, the Xoom is just the vessel for Honeycomb, isn't it? And as long as the bee lives we'll be supported by great developers :)
[Xoom General] jvward:
Hey Honestly,

Koush is a cool guy and he holds a ton of weight in the android community and I personally respect him and his talent, that being said I could give 2 ****s about what he or anyone else buys, never buys, or returns, and so should everyone else.

Personally the Xoom does what I need it to, and I like it. Some people will feel the same way about the Ipad 2, some people feel the same way about the galaxy tab, and some people feel the same way about Cheese. Out of all of us whos right? Every single one :)

If you like the Xoom be happy with it, if not return it. Simple as that. My only request is you dont post on here about how awsome your new device is because honestly you can go post that in the forum of the new device and it will not make people angry or sound like your gloating :)

The Xoom is the Nexus One of the Tab community, because with all of these new devices coming out who knows how much bloat ware or sense or blur or other crap they will have on them. Samsung for one does a totally steller job of providing updates for their devices (thats sarcasm) so I wouldn’t buy anything from them, but again this is my opinion, and someone may totally love their devices and want to catch them all (just like the pokemon) .

As for Motorola, what they’re doing is pretty standard. Think about it they probably have been producing units since Jan possibly even December for a early march release, a 6 month production run in a market where every week a newer shinnier toy comes out I feel is pretty standard.

Thats all just my opinion :) hope it makes you feel a little better tho :) And in the great words of Bob Marley, dont worry be happy :)
[Xoom General] Squeak22:
Honestly, I doubt this is completely true. It just says that they are stepping down production, and with good reason.

Things like this happen all the time in industry. You build 1 million devices, and then you use your manufacturing capabilities to build other things while you sell down the inventory, then you start pushing out units again once you get to another level.

All this means is that they are selling alot less than they are making, which may or may not change when the wifi version is released.
[Xoom General] mikejet:
Wifi will give a price point that more people can agree with.

I'm anxiously awaiting my Wifi order to ship from Amazon.
[Xoom General] lifegear:
Motorola showed us in the past that if they don't make money with their device, they quickly stop to support it.

Knowing the Xoom is running on an early version of Honeycomb, this doesn't look good at all...Makes me want to cancel my preorder actually...
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
I really don't care what koush buys, he bought and sold the galaxy tab 7" in the same amount of time.

If he really cared about the xda community his bootloader would be open source...if he stops making it someone will step in and make one.

Edit: I know he does open source the code, but I'm unsure if the xoom support is in there.
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
I just got my xoom for the GPS maps and the turn by turn directions. It works good for that so Im keeping mine!
[Xoom General] wynand32:
This is really one of the major downsides of the Internet. It used to be that somebody could have a knee-jerk reaction to something, but by the time it filtered through editors, producers, etc., and into the print and publication media it had already been toned down and made far more realistic.

Nowadays, somebody misunderstands or misquotes something, and five minutes later it's believed as fact by the majority of the population, which has been conditioned to get information in tiny little chunks without any appreciation for context.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Oh please, the OG Droid got an update the other day didn't it? Our xooms are unlocked and unmodified to such a degree that we will be able to create roms from the 3.0 source code without any issue.
[Xoom General] jvward:
I thought his bootloader was open source? Wasnt that the origional reason it was created as opposed to Amon_RA? Or do I have it backwards?
[Xoom General] funnycreature:
Wasn't that Bobby McFerrin?
[Xoom General] jvward:
Yep it was, its been a long day and I am tired :)
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Whether or not he pushed the code for the xoom is the issue right now.
[Xoom General] mikejet:
All I know is Amazon needs to ship it already!
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
This development might put the remaing xooms in high demand. Whatever happens I bet they will sell out FAST!. I am glad I allready have 2 of them in my home!. You know what they say..... a bird in the hand is worth 2 xooms on pre order at Amazon! LOL
[Xoom General] Pitnefor:
i FREAKING LOVE my xoom. I have an ipad that also and I never touch it. Go android!!!
[Xoom General] Pitnefor:
android ftw yo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTUwqxHpXMY
[Xoom General] dudeimgeorge:
i love my xoom too and im pretty content with it. i sold my ipad, two weeks before the announcement of the ipad 2 (robbed the dude on craigslist)

my main concern at this point, and i think its to a certain degree, paranoia, that the pushing up updates, dev community mods and improvements all together will be few and far between.

after typing that i realize thats nonsense, motorola sliced off at least 1-2months of shipping delays by delaying adobe, the sdcard and the 4g...just to be ahead of the pack.

whether that option was smart in the longrun is a question for the finance people. but as a android geek im good with that, just as long as developers (like koush) still have at it.
[Xoom General] alex2792:
Thank god Moto priced the Xoom so high that I(and other sane people) got the ipad 2. At least I know that Apple wont just drop their product like that less than 6 months after release.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Everyone ignore the apple troll. He has yet to get a life. Continue on.
[Xoom General] codeman05:
I'm glad you got the iPad2 as well. As a result hopefully you won't be posting in the android forums anymore :)
[Xoom General] goldsworthy:
I agree! I know if the xoom was less than the I Pad folks like you would have bought them all up before I got one! LOL If the xoom was $1000 I still would have got one!
[Xoom General] alex2792:
In other words,you love to waste $$$..
[Xoom General] smilepak:
Just go out to Costco and buy the WIFI Motorola Xoom. Use it for 90 days while the whole rumor clears up. If all is good, keep the Xoom. If all spoiled, return it and get Galaxy 10.1 ahahahahha
[Xoom General] jvs60:
In other words you like to waste yours and our time on this forum
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
I would return mine too if I weren't already past the 14-day return period. No big deal though, I love the Xoom I just see it being outclassed really fast. The weight of the device and the Tegra 2 performance are very disappointing.
[Xoom General] millerliteguy:
What the heck is wrong with all of you worry warts? The Xoom is straight up Google's Honeycomb software, so who give a @#$t if Motorola stops making it. Google is the one who sends out OS updates NOT Motorola...If you want to stay on Honeycomb 3.01 buy a Samsung if you want the latest Honeycomb stick with the Xoom!!
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
I'm not worried about the software. I would like the Xoom to be successful so we can get some 3rd party accessories.
[Xoom General] HorsexD:
THIS IS AMAZING! Anyone Who Hasnt Seen This Should :eek::eek::eek:
[Xoom General] smilepak:
I agree with him on that. I would like to see Xoom successful so we can get some good accessories.

Anyhow, one reason for stepping down production is to prep rampping up production of a revised Xoom. In May, people were supposed to send in their 3G Xoom to be upgraded to 4G/LTE. I assume the June is to end the 3G build and prep more production build w/ standard 4G and WIFI only version. They are releasing the WIFI only version end of this month. Doesn't make sense for them to just stop production all of the sudden.

On another note, if the whole topic is true...suck to be those who sign up with VZW on a 2 years contract to get the Xoom at $599 for WIFI/3G.
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
As long as you stick with Verizon for your 3/4G the contract doesn't matter. You don't have to keep the Xoom
[Xoom General] jshuford:
I think...

It is probably more likely that the Xoom has too much potential and over-shoots too many standards. If anything, Motorola will release a "dummer" version so that the Iphoey can keep up!

Besides... a summer model would be cheaper for manufacturing, and the consumer!
[Xoom General] DroidzFX:
Glad I got mine while they still making em. Im sure they are stopping production for a different model. Oh yeah and I don't give two ****s about what koush does. That's his choice if wants to buy that samsung crap and all the propietary plugs to go with it. Be stuck Meddling around with touchjiz
[Xoom General] _RTFM_:
The samsung community will need him...samsung relies on freelance devs to keep their mobile products up to date and and working.

This is written on my sammy fascinate...that without great devs wouldn't even have FROYO yet.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
1. Exactly who is Koush, he must be some supreme being of Android godness since I hear about him all the time.. no wait.

2. "Reports all over the net" I don't suppose it would be too much trouble for you to actually site some resources.

3. You're right about freaking out... but the last post I read from you was a complete troll attempt in the adobe flash thread so your credibility is about zero which leads me to disbelieve anything in this entire thread.
[Xoom General] emortio:
Tell me about it

Tell me about it. This is why I decided against a future samsung product unless it's a google experience device. It does suck that there won't be as many accessories, but trust me it really sucks when you're stuck with eclair while >82% of the android community has froyo and up. I'm sick and tired of samsung's/verizon's delays on updates. As far as I know, Xoom is a google experience device (correct me if i'm wrong) and that's all that matters to me at present!
[Xoom General] muyoso:
Apparently you don't know about this awesome company I heard about. Its called Google. They happen to make the OS for the device whose forum you are commenting on. Well, one of the secret tools that Google has which not many people know about is a search engine which allows you to search for things on the internet which you may want to know more about. If you type: www.google.com into your address bar, the white bar that runs across the top of the window you are reading this in, you can see what I am talking about. Just thought you would like to know, because when I wanted to know who Koush was, all I had to do is type his name into the search area and press enter, and this Google company gave me all sorts of information on him.
[Xoom General] mgerbasio:
Motorola made a statement saying the report isn't accurate.

[Xoom General] musashiken:
Lol, you should have added a "live demo" too.

http://tinyurl.com/24gcd4p
[Xoom General] youngproguru:
I think this is great news about the end of production. It will be the thing to have, watch.

The Xoom is a developers device. It is unlocked . Moto and Verizon cannot support these holy grails in mass. They need units like the X or the Driod2 as the standard civilian model. Verizon requires control and the vendors like to push bloatware apps. Xoom is not the goal but more an olive branch to Google. If you have a Xoom you will have access to all of the Android tab releases that will run on dualcore for a very long time, where as many other Android tab owners will be tap dancing around locked bootloaders and subpar vendor shell. The Xoom is the hackers tab and my guess is that many other Vendors are going to severely lock down everything coming out. Netfix and Hulu will demand it.
[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:
Exactly. Agree 100%. To me my Xoom is a PURE Honeycomb/Google device with Amazing Specs and Hardware. I saw the Samsung and yes they made it thinner BUT added Crappy TouchWiz and scaled down the camera from 8MP to 3MP. The only way for them to compete with the iPad 2 (price wise) is to remove the higher end components and put in cheap ones. No Thanks. I would rather pay a little more for quality components. I have a Samsung Moment (that I gave to my daughter after I got my EVO) and Samsung barely upgraded it at all. I am thru buying Samsung products.

[Xoom General] musashiken:
Not to mention the Xoom has future support for expandable sdcard memory while the Samsung Tablets don't.

Unfortunately still no word whether Motorola and Google will do something about the sdcard slot.
[Xoom General] Ballzdeeeper:
I would have to after with youngproguru. Regardless if they stop making the Xoom next week or next year, this is the device to have. I still have my OG Droid because there are people still making ROMs for it, and I don't mean Cyanogen. There are kernals that keep the speeds up with or faster than what is being released. All from a device that was released almost two years ago and was quickly replaced by the Droid Xoom and 2.

The Xoom will have a long and useful life, in gadget years, in just the same way.

Add for Koosh selling this Xoom, it wasn't a chalenge for your and probably wanted to get something that was.
[Xoom General] muyoso:
Not true. Samsung added in microsd card slots. They are seriously upping the game to a new level. Their displays should be pretty awesome as well. I am hoping they choose to use the Exynos SoC, but they probably wont.
[Xoom General] patass:
Every day I see some new announcement that makes me second guess buying the wifi model on Sunday, and then I think "Well, I dont see anything else that has an sd card slot, hdmi cable, no bloatware, etc". The HDMI is a must for me, and not having any other OS's piled ontop of Honeycomb means 100% compatability with bluetooth peripherals.
[Xoom General] B Dizzle:
Wouldn't worry too much about this. Nexus One got dropped early in the game but still gets all the Google love. Still would rather have this over anything out right now. Google experience devices FTW.
[Xoom General] musashiken:
Where did you read this? I only see that they will come in 16GB and 32GB versions.

Edit: Nvm, think I see the revamped specs.
[Xoom General] erzhik:
that was a BS report probably tipped by a raged out Apple fan.
