If it's a legit phone (i.e. not stolen and allowable for resale) then he could always try mobile recycle sites.

Not sure where you're (or your friend is) based but here in the UK we have sites like fonebank.com

Only problem with them is they'll give you highly knocked down prices compared to what the phone is actually worth.

Oh and try eBay?

Wow... 350 for a surround? You're lucky to sell one for 220 around here...
[Windows Phone 7 General] froibet:
looks like i gotta get on a plane to texas to buy phones there. $220 for a surround is ridiculously cheap! i wonder how much other phones costs?

in vancouver, people on craigslist are selling HD2s for about 300-500 for a used T8585

- guess i better tell my bud to wait it out... there's nothing wrong with the phone anyways, and might as well keep it since it's a pretty attractive phone.. Or advise him to post it on ebay
[Windows Phone 7 General] leonidas638:
I saw on ebay an offer of a luxury brand cellphone on the back marked not for sale demo only & the seller specifies that, there appears to have no other accessories or box but described as like new because the brand is exorbitantly priced & probably very few potential customers handled it. I wonder are demos locked & not upgraded by firmware pushouts.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xparsons:
I have a Nexus S which I love to all my little hearts content.

I have one small gripe though.

In my text messaging threads, I (as in Me) comes up in a little greyed out box.

I want to be able to set a picture for myself, but I don't know how.

I read online somewhere that I need my phone to recognize my sim card number, (or something of that nature) but my phone only says Unknown in the Phone Number section.

Any fixes?

Thanks for your time everyone!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TDR11:
It should work if you create a contact for yourself, with your phone number.

Some other phones let you set this, if you use CyanogenMod it also lets you set this from your Nexus S.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gasparzim:
Your google pic? Mine shows the android pic. It used to show the grey box, because my sim card showed "unknown number". Solved it inserting the sim card in another mobile that gives me the option to change my number (like an iphone 3G).

But now I want my google account picture too :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dig2285:
Right, firstly this is my first post, so please bare with me.

I have a (UK) Galaxy S that WAS running FROYO 2.2. I recently rooted the phone for various reasons only to find out that some features would not work. I then un-rooted the phone to return back to the standard running 2.2.

During the un-rooting process the phone crashed, and subsiquently would not reboot. I got round this by recovering it using ODIN Ver3.0......But its restored the phone to 2.1, Build Number ECLAIR.XWJMB, Kernel 2.6.29 rootSE-S603 #2, Baseband version I9000XXJM4.

Ive tried to update the system using Kies but it says that it isnt able to update and trying to update using ODIN didnt work. Can i get my phone back to running FROYO 2.2 that i loved so much?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated

Thanks Rob

Loving my Atrix on Bell so far. Coming from a BB, it's a change for the better. Yes I managed to leave bbm and the tactile keyboard.

To answer your question,

open the camera, while open press the menu button (the white 4 square botton on the bottom left of your screen), select settings and change the 'Picture Resolution' to Very Small; I was only able to get down to 250K, so you may still need to edit the picture with Adobe Photshop Express (available in market) to crop the picture to make it that small.

You can manually change this in the settings within the camera application.

However if you want to take tlgrwat pictures and are worrying about them just being too large in general, the phone will automatically resize the picture so you can ssend it as a mms

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
Close google services via "running services"
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbigdave:
Try disabling the calendar sync, i noticed it can gum things up quite heavily. Check in the running services for the obex (might be something similar) service. Do not kill it as it is responsible for other background syncing tasks.

I had this problem and I can't remember how i fixed it...sorry :(

thc for the replies guys I really appreciate it Ive stoped google services hope it works :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbigdave:
That's not what I said, no need to mock me.

I stated that the OBEX service is responsible for running other background syncing processes and killing it willy nilly can cause unexpected behaviour from your phone.

The calendar sync is renowned for causing issues with the battery performance, as is the HTC sense account. These are documented on many threads dotted about.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] mrphil101:
I got the body glove when I bought the phone. I is very well made and fits great. it is pretty thin, so it doesn't bulk the phone up too much. I also bought the leather case (att premier store for 20 bucks) with the magnet that puts the phone to sleep when you close it. nice feature. swivel ratcheting belt clip. It fits the bare phone nice and snug. It is supposed to work with tight fitting covers, but I can't see one being thinner than the body glove, and that will not slide into the case well at all. way to hard to get back out. I do reccomend the body glove for a thin rubbery case, though.

I love Pure Messenger but it's acting up on my CM7... just randomly hogs the CPU and stays that way so much that even plugged in USB charging, the charge doesn't actually increase the battery! :p Probably some type of bug or something. Are there any nice alternatives to Pure Messenger? I mainly only need Twitter and Facebook.

Tried TweetDeck and HootSuite but neither has a widget like Pure Messenger does.

Yes I can just use Twitter and Facebook's own widgets but they're no where as good as Pure Messengers, at least not to me.

Does CM7 support adobe flash?

I was on Honeycomb v4 2nd edition but even after the 1.1GHz overclock, it was really laggy which is fine because it is based off a preview build, so switched to the cm7 nightly of yesterday.

HC ran "TED T" fine from the market. it is an app which has ted talks on it.

however CM7 give me an error "Sorry, this video cannot be played"

anyone have any ideas on how to get flash working on cm7 or know a html app of ted talks?

i have installed adobe flash 10.2 from the market and also rebooted since.

thanks
[Nook Color General] snives:
It's a little choppy but otherwise Flash works fine for me on CM7 for a few days now. I update to the latest nightly each night before bed or morning when I get up and have not had it fail me yet since 10.2 came out. As to the Ted T app in particular that you mentioned, I downloaded and tried it out for you. The video is choppy, but otherwise it seems to work. I'd like to be of more help, but until video is fluid it really isn't worth speculating at what could be the cause in my opinion.
[Nook Color General] animatechnica:
flash does work with cm7 (i use nightly 23) albeit a little low frame rate - trick is to use Dolphin Browser, click on menu/settings and User Agent and select Desktop
[Nook Color General] ADude:
You are the second person after me to have problem with video with the more recent CM7 builds.

I went back to 25 and it works fine again.

The post above me says it works in 23.

My guess is that it was messed up in the recent builds - but you would think that someone else would have noticed.
[Nook Color General] dpakrr:
thanks for your replies.

@animatechnica and ADude - went back to nightly 23 and 25. still no luck with ted t.

@snives - cheers for testing mate. can you tell me what nightly version u r using? thanks!
[Nook Color General] ADude:
If you want random things to try that are suggested in various threads (after backing up your installation!):

- Power off and back on (should be different from reboot)

- Soft reset (20 second hold power button)

- Uninstall Flash 10.2 and download and install again

- Uninstall SetCPU or CPUtuner (supposed to not be used with CM7)

- Use standard kernel instead of OC kernel

- "Fix Permissions" in ROM manager

- Get brianf21's utility (Development Forum thread) and clear Dalvik Cache

Yeah, this seems to be about average for me too, without freeing any RAM up that is. After freeing, I usually have around 100 or so free.

To the OP, obviously an App you are running is killing your RAM (or a combination of Apps). Get an App like "OSMonitor" to see exactly which Apps are using exactly how much RAM. Then go from there,
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minho422:

Is it possible that something went wrong during flashing roms?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dread This Day:
Honestly, I am not a Dev or anything but I AM an IT major and have a bit of Linux experience...I do not think anything went wrong flashing ROM's, but just to play it safe, I would use Adrynalyne's all-in-one DI05.tar in Odin. Then reflash Froyo/whatever ROM you want. That will COMPLETELY wipe for you, if something is wrong, that will definitely fix it. Otherwise, stick with what I mentioned in my last post.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minho422:
I will consider that as my last resort..

I really hate to wipe and set up my phone again :(

I installed osmonitor, but I don't know what's overusing the ram...I see android os using 70mb and about 6 apps using 20~25 each. Those apps are system apps too, such as download manager etc.

Is there a way to extract the memory usage list and post it here?

Android Assistant is good as well. It's free in the market & shows a clear % value in the list of what's running. Process Monitor Widget also works & will give you a snapshot recording of ram/cpu load.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zacisblack:
My phone was doing this also. When booting I had about 160MB free RAM after level 2 clear in task manager. After about 2 hours it would go down to about 70 and I when clearing in task manager it would only go up to about 80-90. It was really annoying and would cause my phone to slow down and get hot. This is one of the main reasons I reverted back to DJ05. I tried fixing the issue with wipes and re flashing rom/kernel but nothing helps. We'll just have to wait until source is released to get better kernels.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iadpsa:
Android keeps recently used apps in memory for quick access or things like alarms and keeps them there until it needs to free up that ram for something else. It's is generally pretty good at managing its own memory, so unless youre getting major slowdowns then I wouldn't worry about it.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivorycruncher:
Android is not Windows. It handles memory very differently (and better). You do not need to be concerned about high memory usage at all, as the system reclaims memory as needed when new processes are launched.
