sorry if it came out wrong, i meant no offense to you in particular...the term "drones" was used to denote the MASSIVE number of users treading this corner of the xda forums, quite a few of which display a remarkable tendency to demand spoon feeding.

it is understandable in loose social interactions that one would prefer spoon feeding if one was busy and "had a life" and was short on time, but the forum rules are clear...and it is by definition a "forum" (or library or knowledge base) where other members ALSO have lives and therefore don't take kindly to members that seem to demand answers (intentionally or unintentionally) as if it were a tech support hot line...is all i'm saying!
[HD2 General] htchd2rules:
lol, i actually laughed at this :D I dont demand answers at all to be honest, I know im lucky for what i do get, i know people dont have to help me and why should they? I have to say though if I had seen some one asking for help and i knew the answer, i wouldnt be able to with hold myself and not help :)

I really respect people trying to help, probably more than others. Even with this stupid thread its had me thinking about that i was a bit stupid because people did try to help me but i didnt look. Ive just got this thing in my head that everyone at XDA thinks their better than me/others and thinks you are dumb or something (due to what i have heard, and other peoples comments on threads I have made have also contributed to this thought). if its any consolation I am trying to learn Java programming along with other subjects atm ;)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Izagaia:
I am not certain how exactly it happened. I am guessing that it has something to do with my deleting a backup folder while my Tilt 2 was connected via Active Sync. However, all of the sub-folders in My Documents (save for Templates, Ringtones and Wallpapers) seem to have been deleted off of my device. I did not have anything in those folders since I primarily use my storage card, but I would like to put those folders back. I added the "My Ringtones" folder myself, and threw a few sound files in their to see if the device would find the folder and it did so I do not believe that any damage to the registry has been done. I just need the exact names of all the sub-folders in My Documents to put everything back the way it was. Thanks!
[Xoom General] rank78:
I first got my wifi Xoom last week. It powered up fine that day, but the next time I used it was yesterday and I had to vul up and power to turn it on. The Xoom was stock and had about 70% charge. I rooted it last night but today I had to vol up and power to turn it on this morning. It has about 50%. To test if this occurs only after long downtime I turned it off and tried to turn it on. No go, had to vol up and power.

Is there anything I can do? The Xoom works fine otherwise but its annoying to power it up this way.
[Xoom General] mobilehavoc:
You have some app running that's freezing it/crashing it while sleeping. Try either a factory reset and see if it still happens or start uninstalling apps one at a time.
[Xoom General] rank78:
Is there a way to view error reporting or something before doing that? I checked Apps>management>running for 3rd party apps and uninstalled the one I know I had when all this started but still had to vol up and power to boot.

Hoping someone has a clue before a factory reset.
[Xoom General] @prime:
Just to verify, do you mean turn on or wake up? Like are you talking about pressing the power button after the xoom screen timeout has occured? Or do you mean, powering it completely down and then turning it back on?
[Xoom General] mobilehavoc:
Try this, go to Apps Drawer and select MY Apps, that will order the apps in the order they were installed

There are also apps like CatLog in the market that show you logs.
[Xoom General] rank78:
Turn on. Waking or rebooting are fine but powering down and then hitting the power on results in the flashing red light. Once or twice out of several attempts the Xoom powered on normally but most the time I need to vol up and power.

I tried getting rid of another early app but the only ones that were present during the first failed boot are Google Maps, Places, Latitude, etc.

I installed CatLog. What should I be seeing?
[Xoom General] mrmerkwa:
try holding the power button in longer bc if u just tap it it always will show the blinking red lights
[Xoom General] mobilehavoc:
Sorry I misunderstood I thought it was doing this while sleeping not when you had powered it off and wanted to power it back on. In that case, either you have a defective unit OR you just need to push the power button harder and hold it down - it takes 5-10 seconds of holding it for it to turn on. In your case, apps have nothing to do with it.
[Xoom General] rank78:
No idea what step it was but after a factory reset and reinstalling everything it seems like things are ok now. I was going to drain the battery and see if maybe it needed a full cycle but so far its booting up fine. Odd.
[Xoom General] phonixzero:
^ Freaked me out my first day. Would press the power button and the led would just blink red then I realized I had to hold the button a bit longer to power up the device
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lipmonger:
I just noticed this... my 4G data connection is sometimes not connecting after coming into 4G from a 3G area. I get network connection errors when opening any type of data app (browser, gmail, etc.). I've also noticed this sometimes occurs on device bootup.

The 4G icon is there, I can make phone calls, and see the "up" arrow lighting up - but the down arrow never lights up. I found a fix by disabling then reenabling the 4G radio (at the Phone Info settings). However, shouldn't this transition be seamless?

Is anyone else having this issue?

Thunderbolt, rooted, with Adrynalyne's debloat ROM.

So if you are interested in being a beta tester send me a PM thanks.
[Vibrant General] theusername:
Im down, I have two vibes. Hit me up!!
[Vibrant General] The Tech Game:
haha ill go once i see some more development into this, i only own one and its my main phone and i heard from android forums that sense interferes with download mode, so ill wait a little haha (i heard this rumor A WHILE AGO, so idk if its still the case)
[Vibrant General] neobuddy89:
please try to exterminate as many bugs as possible and keep it light weight and sexy.. :D
[Vibrant General] Babyface1249:
I'd also be down so long as I can get back into download mode
[Vibrant General] frigid:
Yes you can still get into download mode by pulling the battery holding both volume up and down plugging it in to the comp and then putting the battery back in. And I will messaging everyone back later tonight or tomorrow morning.
[Vibrant General] Babyface1249:
Cool! I've got tomorrow off too!

[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
As much as I support this project, Sense has been shown to be an ass to port due to the closed sourced software. I believe the only phones to receive Sense by devs are those with similar hardware to HTC phones, such as the Nexus One and Desire.

But, good luck to you!

I restored phone settings and my card is formated , just incase i did something wrong but still no luck.

Some help would be appreciated, thanks for your time
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] syin16:
try to turn off and take out the battery for about 10secs, and put it back again and reboot, try to connect it back to ur pc, open cmd and try this command

adb devices 'to see whether it detects our phone or not'
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ocovarr112:
I think u should take ur phone to mainteance service. Thats not a typical problem.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
Flash it using seus update. You can download it from sony official site.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jneo0:
adb devices doest seem to be a valid cmd command.

And from what i understand seus needs to have a connection with my phone to update but thats the problem i cant connect it with pc.

thanks anyway guess think i ll visit maintanance service
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
And why should you bother with adb?

Just flash it using seus update. Download it and follow the step by step.

Turn off your and take out the battery. Ready your seus update, now follow the step. Put ur batt in but dont switch on, press and hold the back button and plug in ur usb to the phone.

When the LED light is green then you are good to go. It should work and ready to download the firmware needed for you x10 mini/pro.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
I mean SEUS update service, not using pc companion.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jneo0:
Just tried what u asked but still the software doesnt detect my phone
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] syin16:
sorry bro, i thought u already install android sdk kit
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nujhum:
I've experienced the same thing before, I cant connect my x10 to pc, and it cant detect at all when the hp is connected. So I just flash using seus updates. Since the same method doesnt help you at all. Im sorry.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] alaman68:
I love gingerbread but need the sense camera. So, since my friends still think my phone is CM7 even though it isn't, I thought I'd share my cheater way to get 2.2 to look 98% of the way there. There are only a few subtle visual differences, but it convinced a coworker today...

1. Koni elite III and get rid of the clock in status bar

2. Omegasun18 Honeycomb dreams for battery icon, other icons, etc...

3. Adw launcher by anderweb

4. NexusKang live wallpaper (free on market)

5. Calkulins remove sense

6. Sony sketch font (i like it on evervolv a lot!!!) - fachadick 300 fonts thread

7. The clock is beautiful widgets from market (i always use it since i paid)

8. Wimax notifier from Noxious Ninja for the wimax led notification (in xda themes and apps)

9. Screen Off and Lock by Katecca for the Gingerbread screen off animation (also on market)

hope this helps a little bit, keep the sense camera, have wimax notification, and the gingerbread screen off all on 2.2

Looks pretty cool. I'll have to mention this to my friend who just got his. doesn't like sense look but likes some of the default apps.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] felacio:
the screen off app is cool. not as convincing as the real thing. but cool.

one thing I would love to do is get it so it shows the animation when you actually hit the power button, not just hold search.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] alaman68:
It's not bad though. the problem is you know it isn't the real thing. there are some other really cool screen off animations in there too. I use a blank on my screen to activate it instead of the search button. Blank icons are great, have about 6 on my home screen
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Mazda:
I might consider doing this since I love the look of CM7 but I can't stand not using Qik, Skype on 3G and just a few other things that I used to do on 2.2 that I can't on 2.3.....Good post man!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Max_Pain:
thanks the animation looks great!

now i'm trying to find the sound that those old tvs made when turning off so I can put that sound to go along with the animation!

anyone have that?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bbrita:

[Venue Pro General] missionsparta:
I am now waiting on my third one. Unfortunately I originally purchased a 16GB version and have had nothing but problems with it.

Neither so far have been able to run more than 30 seconds with the WiFi on without crashing. So I have been thinking I was going to swap the card out for a 32GB card. But before I could do that, now the current phone has tons of dust under the screen, no longer will connect EVER to 3G, and crashes everytime I shut the keyboard.

I have spent at least (without exegarating) 100 hours on the phone with Dell. I have been up the chain of command. Even after send them about 20 links showing were the issues clear up when the 16 GB cards are swapped out, they insist there is nothing wrong with the cards. Lately I can't run a video on the phone, that runs perfectly fine on my Zune HD, without the video and audio staggering (willing to bet the card is not keeping up with the pace the OS is trying to read it). Now even with the WiFi off it crashes CONSTANTLY.

As a result, as I have been waiting for me 3rd replacement, I have contacted the Michigan Attorney Generals Office for consumer protection and now they are on Dell's arse. Yet, they still claim there is nothing wrong with these cards. What both me and the Attorney General are arguing is 2 things...

1) Why they don't just honor the warranty and allow those of us with all these issues to swap out the SD card.

2) Why they have been shipping phones for months and months now if they knew they are defective?

This phone has just been a complete disaster. Unfortunately, to get another Windows Phone with T-Mobile, I would have to go with the HD7. I don't have $500 to shell out on a new phone, and I don't T-Mobile is just going to hand me one, because my Dell is a POS. This is just ridiculous.

On a side note, can someone tell me how to get a SanDisk 32GB

CLASS 4

microSD card? Everytime I order one, it comes in a class 2 even though they advertise it as a class 4 and have to just ship it back. Anyone able to give me advice on this or point me to a linke or company that they know has Class 4's?

Thanks for your help in advance.
[Venue Pro General] kartbart:
Hmm interesting. I bough an 8GB DVP a couple of weeks back and have had no problems so far. I recently switched to 32 GB card. The one I got was:

http://amzn.com/B003HIWHN0

It shows class (2) in the picture but the card I got shows class (4).
[Venue Pro General] kharnak:
I replaced mine with a sandisk 32g class 2 and it works. not sure if class 4 works better.
[Venue Pro General] tbvnz:
WOW! Boy do we think alike! check out my msg on this thread: How is your DVP after updating to Nodo? Can anyone smell a class action here?
[Venue Pro General] missionsparta:
Totally should be one. I get the whole, "you only get penny's back on the dollar because the lawyers eat up everything in a class action suit". But, in this case, anything to make sure that Dell is not profiting off these lemons.

Besides how it looks and the quality of the screen, there is nothing good with these devices.

May biggest question is, how do you end up with an ENTIRE WAREHOUSE FULL OF DEFECTIVE SD CARDS? Every single person you talk to with 16GB either has nothing but crashing after crashing, freezing after freezing, or just ends up admitting they don't really use the thing other than the phone feature (doesn't use WiFi, browser, Zune, etc).

I know it sounds like I am being a smart ass, but I honestly believe that they cut a deal with SanDisk to buy refurbished cards for penny's on the dollar. And here is why: anytime there is an issue with multiple manufacturers involved, the finger pointing starts immediately. Not once has Dell blamed the issue on SanDisk, while at the same time other manufacturers are using the SAME cards and having 1000x the success rate. If there was any chance that SanDisk was to blame for shipping them defective SD cards, Dell would be calling them out with all this bad press. Look at the deal with NoDo... Microsoft points at the carriers; the carriers point at the manufacturers, and the manufacturers point back at the carriers, and the carriers point right back at Microsoft. The fact that Dell is being so silent about all this lends me to believe they are hiding something. And what else could they be hiding that would lend to having an entire manufacturing stock pile of bad SD cards? They got cut a deal and thought no one would know. Now it is a disaster and they are trying to pass the buck onto the consumer.

I say someone sues the pants off them so bad that they never try the mobile market again. They have no business being in it if this is the product they turn out and even worse, if this is how they try to make good on getting caught trying to pull a fast one on the consumer.
[Venue Pro General] pjfan75:
I don't thinik we can say for sure the SD cards are defective. For all we know they could work perfectly fine in other SD devices, but for whatever reason (bad driver, flaky controller etc) they cause issues in the DVP.
[Venue Pro General] notebookgrail:
Can someone try this:

If you have a 32GB card installed, can you load it up until close to 29 to 30GB and see if you have similar crashes. The theory behind this is if the OS is having problem once the card reaches a certain percentage. Again since the 8GB versions don't have problem - my theory might be wrong. Another thought is Dell or WP7 OS /driver is fine tuned for 8GB, may be?
[Venue Pro General] pjfan75:
I doubt it's the remaining space as many people had the problem almost immediately after the phone came out. Also many have exchanged the phone at least once and stll had the problem. I would hope people are testing the replacements before immediately syncing tons of content, but I could be wrong.

The card size probably isn't the problem since people have replaced with other 16GB or 32GB cards and said it fixed the crashing.
[Venue Pro General] efjay:
Yep, I had 3 exchanges of the 16GB version and all had the same crashing while doing the initial sync with my pc, swapped in 2 32GB cards and nothing changed.
[Venue Pro General] raremage:
I've got ~6 Gigs free on a 32 GB install and it works fine. No more WiFI lockups. Phone now works great.

My only complaint is the camera still sucks for photo quality. I'm hoping the new firmware addresses that.
