Oh sorry, you're right, he said NDS4droid ^^

Yeah, that's probably not going to run very well unless the developer somehow manages to emulate a DS with less... Well, emulation. The phone uses arm processor and, incidentially, the DS does too. Altho ours are a lot faster and, well, newer, it might be a lot easier to emulate the DS hardware on this similar hardware.

Incidentially, for the interested, the PSP does NOT use ARM processors but RISC processors, which work differently and make Emulation potentially a lot harder on our devices.

Edit: Actually, I did some more research, and it seems like the ARM architecture contains almost all RISC instructions, so emulation of PSP and PS2 games might be quite easy. Altho to make that work, the emulator will have to be directly developed for that platform and in the Android NDK. Ports of PC software will probably not be able to benefit from this similarities.

I thought PSP used MIPS?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th1nkbig:
Subject is supposed to day can't receive text messages sorry.

I recently went back to the March2011OTA for the eris and didn't like it. I then re-rooted and flashed the latest version of GSB 2.7. Now I can send text messages but can't receive them. I can't figure out what I did wrong. Tried updating my roaming but that didn't seem to help. Any suggestions?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
1. Download "APN OnOff" from the market and install it.

2. Run it and and choose "Show APN list" in the middle of the screen.

3. Press the Menu soft key and choose "Reset to default" on the right.

4. You can try it again now, if this doesn't work, reboot and try again.

If that doesn't work:

A. Download and install "APN Backup and Restore" from the market.

B. Download the zip file I have attached.

C. Unzip it and copy or move the "ApnBackupRestore" folder it creates (and the folder's contents) in the root of the SD card.

D. Run APN Backup and Restore and choose "Delete APNs". Then choose "Restore APNs" and restore them from the xml file I gave you, which should automatically be listed when you choose that.

Once again, you can try before and after a reboot. Hopefully one of these methods works for you.

FYI the APN backup I attached is from a version of xtrSENSE that was based off the July OTA (probably xtrSENSE v4.5 through 4.6.5). Fresh from a boot, without having done anything else first.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th1nkbig:
Thank you so much

tried method one and it didn't work trying number 2 now but

apparently there is no ApnBackupRestore folder

so I created on and APN Backup and Restore still can't find it. Ugh!

I will keep trying and keep you posted.

Thanks again
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you create the folder with the same capitalization as I posted? Another way to create the appropriately named folder is to make a backup of your current APNs from APN Backup and Restore, then place the APN file you downloaded in that folder. Make sure and delete any APN folder you created before to avoid confusion in the future.

I suppose I should re-create the zip to include the folder so that when it's unzipped, it'll create the folder, too.

Hope that works for you.

Edit: I changed it with the folder name for the future. The archive above has the new zip file with the APN backup file in the appropriate folder.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th1nkbig:
Ok got the folder and was able to restore the APN. Still can't receive texts. This is frustrating.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you try rebooting?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th1nkbig:
I feel like a real pest. Thank you again for helping me.

I did reboot and still no good. When I go into APNONOFF it just says "off" and when I click show APNs there is nothing there.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If you were a pest I wouldn't try to help you. :) You're welcome.

Did you still try to do the following step?

You can still do that even if it doesn't list an APN. I've seen that before and it helped me, but I never had the texting problem, I used these as a solution for tethering problems, but some people have had success fixing their texting problems with at least the second method, and maybe some the first, also.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] sjmoreno:
I've been using Wireless Tether for Root on my Droid X phone for months to turn it into a wifi hotspot for my gTab to use when on the road. It was working great until a few weeks ago when I believe an update was pushed.

Since then the connection would drop frequently. Also, I noticed that when I was not using anything that needed to send data via wifi the connection would drop until I launched something that needed the connection and after a few seconds it would reconnect.

So it still worked (sort of) but it was really annoying that the connection was not solid and dependable. It's a free app but I "donated" money to the developers so it was doubly annoying that it didn't work dependably.

After much frustration I decided to switch to Barnacle WiFi Tether and I have to say it is ROCK SOLID. I've been using it for most of the day and it hasn't dropped the connection to my gTab a single instance. I highly recommend it. Barnacle WiFi Tether is also a free app but you can "donate" to the developers if you feel it is worth it.

[Nook Color General] simonduz:
I am currently using Auto-Nooter and I have tried the Froyo eMMC ROM. I would like to get the full Android experience but I have the wife approval factor to consider which requires the full suite of Nook stock functionality which doesn't exist in the Nook market place app. That was the only gripe I had with the Froyo ROM.

So is there any ROM available that can do both?
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
No, not at the moment. the problem is, is that the current "special" nook software is built around the modified ROM, and will not function without those mods. Because of the scope of the changes, no one yet has worked all those pieces into a different rom, though there has been some work done on it.

Can it happen? Maybe. But dont place bets on it right now...

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasoraso:
Been using mine for about 10 days now. Although advertised as "1500mah", they are actually a tad thinner than the stock 1400 battery. My guess is that they might actually be 1100? At any rate, they don't seem noticeably lower in capacity than the OEM battery.

The charger mine came with has been great. Doesn't seem to charge too quickly; very convenient. However, I tried the USB out part of the charger, and I think there is a grounding issue: my Tbolt touchscreen is non-responsive when plugged into the charger USB port.

I am getting more adept at using my fingernails to peel the back of the Tbolt to change batteries; but I hope I'm not ordering a new back from China any time soon.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cubusmybro:
On Saturday I was running cyanogenmod 6.1 on my phone, and I had gone through some of the files and deleted some of them. From what I understood, if something went wrong, you could just re flash the ROM. I was watching a Youtube video and my phone had one of those random shutdowns. It started back up at the splash screen, and I expected it to continue on into the ROM. After the splash screen it just shut off and restarted. I though it was just since I deleted HTC Copyright apk, so I would re flash the ROM. I went into H-BOOT, and hit recovery, and then the phone just shut down and started to reboot. I knew it was bad, so I put PB31IMG.zip on my phone that contained clockwork recovery. I then booted into clockwork, and it worked for 2 seconds and then the phone shut off. I flashed an earlier version to try again, and same thing. I tried to use different recoveries and they haven't worked either. Is there anything else that I can do to fix it after this point.

Add this to the list...

14 day return policy on "ALL" purchases. The rule only used to apply to phones. Now it applies to all accessories.
[Thunderbolt General] bmcclure937:
To clear the confusion and misconceptions... the one-year contract normally added a $70 premium to the regular device cost. For the Thunderbolt, this would be $319 rather than $249 (unless you have a corporate discount with your employer... many people were able to get the TB for $199 on 2yr contract and $229 with 1yr contract).

I find the 1 year contract to be the perfect balance. The device is still priced reasonably but you are free to upgrade after a year, which falls nicely with the release of new devices. This also allows you to sell your "old" device for a reasonable amount, and usually cover the cost of your new device... :D

I am extremely disappointed to see the 1 year contract option go away. I am curious why Verizon axed it. This could not be hurting them! :mad: Early upgrades were available at 10 months on a 1yr contract and are available at 20 months on a 2yr.
[Thunderbolt General] l7777:
I hope you're being sarcastic. While 1 year contracts might not have been hurting them, they can make a pile of extra $$ by dropping them. A one year contract was a max of ~$70 more than the two year. But if a person had to continue their contract another 9 months, that's typically another $60 - $70/month for them and they didn't have to subsidize a new phone for you. I personally would like to see them offer lower monthly prices if you buy an unsubsidized phone like T-Mobile does. That's a pipe dream though as mathematically inclined consumers will quickly discover that they can save a lot of coin buying unsubsidized hardware with a lesser monthly rate. It would also discourage contract renewals and slow the sales of new hardware.

Do other carries offer one year contracts?

At&t has come a long way in service coverage and they are a little cheaper. In my area 2-4 years ago everyone had Verizon, now its a very good even split of Verizon and At&t.
[Thunderbolt General] hacky486:
Exactly. I ate the price of my Incredible, then traded it for a Droid X, then sold that and made money on it, so I bought the Thunderbolt and some accessories. 1 year isn't good enough for nerds, because that's just about the time that the real next leap occurs, but for the average consumer, it's perfect. Just buy one phone and keep selling them off on Craigslist...

This makes me sad. Hopefully in a year there will be some other company that has the Android selection of Verizon with the coverage and a 1 year contract...
