[Vega General] dagrim1:
For android devices I think it's still one of the best for the money... The screen could be better but really isn't that bad (if you're using it alone, it gets nastier when tyou want to show a video to someone).

You might want to consider an iPad now that those prices have dropped (sorry that I dropped that word here, but it's certainly a good alternative now that the price is more competative.)

To comment on the negatives above:

1. viewing angles are not great at all,the over all screen quality isnt that good, however you do get used to it and it is bright and clear.

As mentioned, only is really an issue when showing things to other ppl or looking at the tablet with more then 1 person.

2. sound quality is very poor in my opinion, it sounds like it has been set to loud out of the Ad converters and distorts at only 50% volume. (HDMI quality is perfect though, so probably poor AD converters used - although a firmware update could fix this). Alternatively it could be a codec issue as higher but rates sound a lot better than lower bit rates - disproportionatly so.

Speakers from the tablet are mediocre indeed (but not that bad), connecting it to speakers seems to generate a nice sound but have experiment some more with that.

3. it cant play H264 high profile video, this however is a limitaion of Tegra that I was not aware of, so if you are thinking of playing those 1 gig 720p TV rips, think again unless you want to waste your time converting everything.

Nothing to add ;)

4.THink this really needs 3g, I found the wireless pretty good but others say its flakey, havent tried tethering yet but it looks complicated to get working.

Using another android phone as a wifi connection is easy as hell... Can't comment on other phones. You just check a checkbox in the phone to make it act as a mobile point and the vega sees it as a wifi connection. Works very nicely...

5. No market out of the box, however anyone buying this tablet will want to immediately put a decent ROM on it so that not really an issue.

True, but appearantly it's a limitation by google itself and not the manufacturer of the tablet. Also easy to circumvent.

6. Only 512 NAND - 4 gig SD onboard. If you consider the screen is cheap and the SD card is only worth a few quid then spending another £50 on a better tablet might be worth it to get a better screen and 3G

Make that 150... But yeah, would be nice to have some more ram and/or storage but must say it's sufficient for now (and just put in a 16GB or 32GB SDcard...)
[Vega General] Nitin985:
Hmm nice ideas people I will buy at the weekend probably
[Vega General] bobbyelliott:
Also been looking around. And there seems to be nothing to touch this device at this price and build quality. It is currently available (in the UK) for £200. I played with the iPad 2 and this tablet and their build quality was very similar -- but the iPad 2 is around *three* times the price.
[Vega General] Nitin985:
I will buy one over the next week :)
[Vega General] add.thebad:
I had the same dilemma but for the price it it definatly worth it I haven't looked back and it almost replaces my laptop now. Plus their are great Android tablet woos out their it just takes a bit more looking.
[Vega General] Nitin985:
There is also the acer iconia a100 probably will still bu the vega. Can't wait !!!!!!
[Vega General] DiamondGar:
My Vega just arrived and i am loving it. Havent had too much chance to play with it yet but first impressions are very good. It is better out of the box than i was expecting, if this had google stuff out of the box i would recommend to anyone, as it is i would still recommend to anyone who can google competently.

Very glad i bought this now, i was considering just going for original ipad since the price drop, but this thing will blow it out the water when i get it hacked and fully working. Also loving the fact that i can just turn my phone into wifi hotspot at work and start using it straight away no need for any connection to computer at all. Suck that ipad/iphone.

If they get it updated with Honeycomb at some stage with google apps this would become a killer device.

Sorry for the rant just so happy to get the vega after around a week of waitign for it to be delivered.
[G2 and Desire Z General] corrado85:
My keyboard has been having problems. Ever since I updated my NightlyRom twice, I see that some of the letters I press on the physical keyboard have become a program launcher.

If i am typing a sentence, and I press 'b', then it launches email program. If i press 'p', then it launches music player. if i press 'L', it launches calendar.

How can I fix this?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Terrier Hockey:
I don't know anything about that rom but you can go into Settings > Applications > Quick launch and try removing all the shortcuts that are there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] corrado85:
thank you! that seem to fixed the problem :D

[General Questions and Answers] C7mb:
Hey guys!

This is my first post so if I need to change anything please let me know! Ok, so ive had my Droid X since it was first released and love it. However it is becoming very slow and I would like to root it. So before I continue with using z4root, what is the best way to backup ALL of my data? I am copying everything from my SD card to my computer but im unsure how to copy the apps and data on the internal memory of the X. I really want to save my game data from games such as Angry Birds, Robo Defence etc, but dont know how or if im going about this correctly. If it helps, I will be using z4root to root my Droid and will be installing the new Rubix ROM. Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
You could use a backup application like titanium backup.
[Xoom Accessories] it2steve:
Just wanted to drop a line to see if there was any interest in custom shells for the Xoom. I have been working with the Viewsonic gTab (as a proud owner myself) mainly because I found a way to get accessories that for some reason Viewsonic nor anyone else wants to help give us access to. I have a listing in the marketplace and have been keeping it updated regularly.

Anyway... I am able to get some clear shells for the Xoom and I have a local company that can do custom images on them. Wood grain, Carbon Fiber, so forth and so on. This is a new image that they created and it's just my first prototype, again just seeing if there is any interest if I can get some of these?
[Xoom Accessories] dee32181:
I would be interested in one if it had a professional finish...ie. something i wouldnt be embarrased to pull out at work......preferrably with a soft touch finish for grip. It should also have a slightly raised lip so that the screen isnt touching whatever surface it is on when laid face down....hope this helps.....message me when you bring these to market...I would gladly review one for you...which is what i primarily do here on xda....review accessories. and learn about rooting flashing \...screwing up my electronics and then finding a way to fix them.
[Xoom Accessories] Elementix:
I'd really like to see a wood grain one if you have a picture. I'm interested, but it still all comes down to price..
[Xoom Accessories] it2steve:
Im thinking the price point at or under $20 :)
[Xoom Accessories] feron:
mark me as interested.
[Xoom Accessories] streetmapp:
that sounds like a solid price point. carbon fiber would look pretty slick
[Xoom Accessories] funnycreature:
What are the technical specs? Will it be any kind of protect or more I candy? I have the gel case and the skinomi skin already but I'm not perfectly happy with either.

[Xoom Accessories] it2steve:
When I get that one back i'll get some better pics (that one was my shell from my graphics guy). I have 50 clear half shells on the way now and 50 two peice clear shells now, but the two peice aren't cost effective to get customized.

Do you think you could make one some kind of matte black with a green android dude on it, or matte black with a blue honeycomb bee-android?

I'm thinking of a case with something like this:

[Xoom Accessories] Greenarcher707:
Sign me up for a white carbon fiber case. Or black.
[Xoom Accessories] coreyzw:
If you could perhaps add more protection into it, and even maybe a front flap or kickstand like the Moto Portfolio case offers, id definitely buy one.
[Xoom Accessories] Handshake87:
I would definetly like one! Just curious though... where is the image printed? Is it on the inside of the panel (touching the xoom) or is it on the outside of the panel? What type of mm coating has been applied to prevent wearing away of the image?
[Xoom Accessories] 0212353:
I am interested, as long as it fits nice and snug, little case!
[Xoom Accessories] it2steve:
My 'clear' shells will be here in the next couple days. When I take them to the ' architects' will grab that prototype that you saw the pic of and discuss prices and color options.

I'll post current pics with the tab in the shell.

[Xoom Accessories] SnakeManJayd:
Wow.

I'm not really a believer in live-on cases, but wow that one is nice.

So tempting man.
[Xoom Accessories] OneStepAhead:
not to troll, but this is one of the main reasons i went with the maxipad 2 instead of xoom, the accessories. its insane the amount of accessories apple gets. I had a very tough time swallowing my android pride. I actually refused to open the first 2 i bought because I felt like a traitor. you know what they say, third times a charm.
[Xoom Accessories] theimpaler747:
Trolling cleaned. Please keep it on topic and non-argumentative here. Thank you.
[Xoom Accessories] coreyzw:
OP... and ideas on whether you will provide a case that has a kickstand?
[Xoom Accessories] Xevilious:
This feature might get me on board as well.
[Xoom Accessories] it2steve:
I doubt there would be a kickstand, I'm pretty sure the shells are mass-manufactured.

[Xoom Accessories] HuckFinn:
I am also interested. I am using the silicon gel case that came with my Wifi Xoom and while I like the added grip it provides it is not very attractive. There are a couple things I would like to know...

-Does it protrude past the screen? This would provide some protection of the screen when laying the unit down.

-Will the unit still fit in the standard dock with the shell installed? I know for the standard docks Motorola provided two inserts so the dock could be used with or with out the gel case. I would assume that if the shell was less than 2mm thick it would (estimate of how thick the gel case is).

A dark carbon fiber sounds good to me.

[Xoom Accessories] horatiopositronic:
If this fits like the Empire snap cases on Amazon I'd definitely be interested. Would there be a selection of designs or could we send you custom images and get them on cases?

[Xoom Accessories] ejwsoeters:
The CarbonFibre looks pretty slick! To bad I am living in the Netherlands and due to the shipping costs it will not be really interesting for me.
[Xoom Accessories] HuckFinn:
I am definitely interested in getting one or two of these. How much are going to ask for these? Also do you know if you can still use the docking stations with the shell installed?

As a technician for Sprint, Lookout has caused nothing but headaches for us. It may "protect" the phone, but more often than not, it does more damage than it helps. Such as locking up the phone, draining battery, causing the GPS to heat up, etc.

First....thanks xda forums and developers. Recently rooted and have been playing with various ROMs. Love what the community has done...just hope I find one that fits my needs and I stick with it...have been donating where has seen fit.

To the subject

Software sounds good, I have read that I should install tracking software such as this into the system files to further prevent a thief's un-installation. Used root explorer, copied apk to system/app. Changed privilege to r/o, was not able to find file to uninstall afterward....however, force closed on me.

Any help is appreciated.

Does this software also allow you to turn on your GPS?

Thanks again!

Hi, has anyone else notice when looking at photos using the HTC Photo Alrum the photos are not very sharp, but once you zoom in and then zoom back out, they are perfectly sharp in detail. Is this a known bug. I know I use Vignette for my camera and use the full 5MP resolution. Is there a better photo alum to use where it keeps the resolution when panning thru photos? Or a fix for the default 2.1 HTC album.

Thanks
[Nexus S General] python08:
Hi everyone ! :)

My name's Renan and I've just bought a Nexus S. Coming from a HTC Desire, it's just marvellous !

I like development and Android and I created a ROM called Amethyst for the HTC Desire. Now I have a Nexus S, and I'd like to create a ROM for this phone because it is just very powerful :D !

But as the Nexus S has a stock Android version, I'd like to create a ROM with a custom and nice UI (~ like MIUI).

If you're a developer, a graphist, or someone who has ideas or is interested in this project, just send me a PM :)

Have a nice evening, guys

Renan.
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
Really looking forward to see what you come up with mate! Best luck!

I'd be interested in this - I must say I haven't tried developing for the Android yet but I have developed things for PC and have worked with Linux for many years so should be quite easy to pick up! PM me if you like.

sounds good. i can design images (create, modify, etc) pm me with details. cheers..
[Nexus S General] nickwarn:
Welcome to Nexus S, i also love this phone and i hope you come up with something amazing. Seems that the devs start rollling in. They just yesterday or the day before released Nexus S in some of the major contries of Europe. Hope the Nexus S will come alive now
[Nexus S General] Star Shadow:
I've had ideas for my own custom ROM. So, if I have the time, I would like to help out. :) I will try to write up a list of all my ideas later. One of the big ones is that CM requires a custom kernel than ROMs based off stock. They leave something out, so this ROM should do things right from the start and make sure that kernels built for stock, will run. That will make it easier for users to pick their own kernel and kernel Devs would not need to do anything different to make their kernels work with it. :)

Cheers.

Unfortunately we take a BIG hit by not being able to have SENSE roms. We have have about 1/3 less roms due to that. The Nexus One is able to get everything, we cant, and it shows. It harder for all these great DEVs to come up with something cool.

Count me in. Hit me with a pm
[Nexus S General] j0hnZ:
The dev's that develop here either don't like TW or don't have the knowledge. Why make a TW rom when the blind fanboi's here lack the objectivity to see what is better and worse. Even CM took something from TW that they liked...doesn't necessarily make TW better but adds a nice touch. They don't get the point when you say this phone can't do a certain thing when every phone since the original Google experience phones can do it. It's like the world is playing a joke on me. I blame the trendiness that has enveloped Android these days. Back when the main phones were MT3G, G1, Hero nobody cared whether everyone liked it they just did it to show they can and because it has an advantage. You can't see an advantage objectively when your blinded with fanboiism(I just made that up..go me).
[Nexus S General] matt_stang:
I think you are under the impression it would be simple to create a TW rom for nexus s. If so.you are sadly mistaken. If it was easy to do someone might do it but it's not. And TW sucks so bad already that taking the time and effort just to get it half working is pointless.
[Nexus S General] Jrbourque:
Oh I'm not saying I want a tw rom ...just surprising to not see it done yet..just due to the fact of how many sense roms are made for nexus one
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
this is staying in G area until we see some real work going on

it'll be moved back to DEV when a working ROM becomes available
[Nexus S General] j0hnZ:
Who are you talking to? I don't think anyone has the illusion that it is easy, if it was I would have done it by now.
