[Nook Color General] saabguy123:
The biggest push for me to get a tablet is because I use Citrix Reciever at work, and with any android (or ipad for that matter) can access work related things very fluidly, except my phone is abit too small for everything. I also stream internet radio via my cellphone, and have about 50 or so apps... The biggest thing is being able to do work on-the-go through Citrix receiver though.

I'm debating, since TMobile is about to release the G-Slate by LG, on getting a tablet this week. The G-Slate is gonna be ~$530 plus a monthly data subscription of probably $20-$35. It will have the latest tech such as 4G, wifi, gps, 3d cameras, Honeycomb... the works - only I'm not 100% positive on the cost justification, one because it would be a locked device (not rooted) and because Android tablets seem to be going through a phase of flux and change every 3 months.

Also on the table for consideration is rooting a new B&N Color Nook. We just bought my wife her Nook and she loves it - and I like the hardware for the most part. The battery life is good, the screen is nice, and its a decent price for a nice set of hardware. If I buy my own, it would be to root and use it as an Android 2.x / 3.x tablet.

Internet connection wouldnt be such an issue from the nook, as my TMobile HTC HD2 cell phone is 3.5G and gets good data speeds, plus the HD2 is now running Android and the tethering application works great.

So, which would you choose?
[Nook Color General] solinar:
Price, screen size, processing power.

It all depends on what you want. I bought a nook color and its a great size for my son. Its not too big for him to hold. It didn't cost $500+ so I'm not as worried about it as I would be if I did.

I like the 7" form factor for what it is. I'd probably like the 9-10" form factor as well, but its a device which you have to hold differently, which is a different experience. I'm looking at the Asus Transformer for myself at some point.
[Nook Color General] saabguy123:
Do you ever wish you had subscription data service on the nook?
[Nook Color General] solinar:
I don't because I only use it at home. However, it's intended use is primarily a device for my 6 year old so I have it locked out of internet activities unless they are supervised by me or my wife.

When I find myself playing with it, it's mostly games that are not internet reliant. I occasionally browse the internet with it, because its so convenient and handy and I can use it from the couch, but I usually get frustrated with how inefficient tablets are for internet browsing and grab a laptop or a desktop to get the info I am looking for.
[Nook Color General] Divine_Madcat:
if i didn't have a phone to tether to, i probably would. But since i ALWAYS have my phone, data on my nook is never a worry. If you have somebody picky like AT&T, it might be a problem, but otherwise... :)
[Milestone XT720 General] -eXpo-:
I have been spending many hours, days, and weeks trying to learn as much as possible about modding my android....but I am still a little lost.

Details:

Motorola Motoroi XT720 (I am in Korea)

S/W version: STSKT_N_79.33.50R

Android Version: 2.2.1 (Just upgraded the other day from Motorola's website)

Kernel Version: 2.6.29-omap1

Also, I am rooted.

I am not sure if I am unable to mod mine to the extent that others can (due to mine being the Korean version), or if it just the fact that I am still learning and not completely "Android Savy" yet. But if I could get some assistance, it would be greatly appreciated.

I'd hate to say it, cause I can be pretty smart, but if it could be be broken down "Barney Style" for me, that would be great.

I would like to change up the phone to have a much more powerful machine. Without lag, runs faster/smoother (overclock), change the appearance (black status bar, etc), and pretty much anything else possible.

I see some ROMs that say they are for "Dexter's 2.2", etc...would those work for me even though I have the "legit" 2.2 from Motorola?

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!!
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
One problem you will encounter is that the Motoroi has a much smaller system partition than what we use on Dexter-derived XT720 ROMs. So I don't think you will be able to copy on Dexter's ROM (or the modified Dexter ROMs). That said, I don't think you need it:

If you haven't already you should see if you can get Open Recovery or Androidiani Recovery (better) installed so that you can backup and restore when things don't work.

For overclocking, try Milestone Overclock from the market. I think it was updated recently to support the Motoroi kernel, but I could be wrong. If it doesn't work, you just need to make an init.d script to load the kernel module with the correct offsets (I can give more details if needed).

For theming, see if Metamorph (in market) works. There's a gingerbread theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=955698 that you can try to see if the morphs we're using are compatible.

Other things to try are old school app2sd if you have low internal memory (Motoroi is partitioned for more internal memory than the Dexter ROMs).
[Milestone XT720 General] -eXpo-:
I have Root Manager and have backed up with that...Will that work just fine?

I have tried the milestone overclock and it wouldnt work for me. Everytime I tried to "Load Module", it would just say "Load Failed".

If you could further explain what an init.d script is, and how to load it...that would be great.

I'll be sure to check that you, how do you recommend applying the themes? I've seen numerous ways of doing it. Metamorph app?

After upgrading to 2.2, I am now able to move apps to my SD Card...does that work just fine, or would app2sd offer more for me?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
I'm not sure Root Manager can help you if you get stuck in a bootloop. The recoveries will let you save bit-perfect images of the phone that can be restored (nandroid).

Ok, you can create boot scripts, but this could be pretty involved and take a lot of time. I don't think Motorola's stock ROMs run /system/etc/init.d directory scripts so it would involve creating a boot hijack. The easiest thing may be to file a bug report so that Milestone Overclock can be updated for the Motoroi 2.2 kernel. This would be the best solution. Run:

cat /proc/kallsyms > /sdcard/kallsyms.txt

and post the kallsyms.txt and your kernel version (i.e. something like 2.6.32.9 wfp018@zbr05lnxdroid03#1, but from your phone) to:

http://code.google.com/p/milestone-overclock/issues/list

Metamorph is an app. It's pretty easy when it works.

Yeah, that's completely fine. Don't bother if you don't need it.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Juventino:
Hello all!

First of all, my english isn't that good.

I got a question about the update for my Omnia 7:

The phone is branded by T-Mobile, but I use a Simcard from o2 - Will I get the Update as well although I haven't a T-Mobile simcard?

Thanks a lot!

[Windows Phone 7 General] titogannon:
There is a way!!!

Hello!!

I live in Germany too, and i bought just like you, an Omnia 7 "T-Mobile branding", but i use it with Base/E-Plus. I did get the Mango Update, but not the usual way.

First, you should take the Branding away (I sent a link to your privates, i recomend the first Firmware, it gets you to Mango, the second one does not work for me).

And second, you do force it to update (again, in the private messages). You don't do anything out of the rules... Just fool Zune haha.

I would post the links, but it does not allow me to do so (after 8 posts will i be able to do so ¬¬)

Worked like a charm to me :D.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirodema:
Hi,

when I rooted my Desire I flashed Amonra on it with Unrevoked and it works fine. Now I am using the Gingervillain rom and everytime I want to install something from the Villain Setup I have to do it twice. e.g. I want to install adblock for S-ON. On first install it boots into Clockwork Recovery (I never flashed that one??) and it does nothing. After a reboot I checked wheter it has overriden my Amonra, but its still there. So I tried a second time to install Adblock just to be sure and it install, but it uses Clockwork again.

So my question is: why does it need 2 tries and where does the Clockwork come from?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Stop using Rom Manager. That's where its coming from. Just boot into recovery manually and do it that way /sigh

You should know, that CM7 for GT-i9000 is still in heavy development and the CM7 guys is putting their best effort to solve this issue(s) + they just got the GB source, which i think is going to improve CM7.

The simple way to get rid your drain, is to flash another ROM ;)

[Desire General] mesiu84:
I've found howto about rooting Desire on wiki cyanogenmod (Desire GSM)

Problem is that mine is PVT4 and 40000. How can I do this? Is this guide (latest version of unrevoked) working OK, or are there any problems described here in this forum.

I'm interested in this part of guide:

" NOTE: the ClockworkMod version 2.5.0.7 installed by Unrevoked3 is widely reported not to work with new "PVT4" batches of the Desire. To find out version of the device:

1. Shutdown the HTC Desire (GSM).

2. Power it on by pressing at the same time the back button and the power button.

3. A screen will appear and the first line will reveal the phone version.

4. Choose "reboot" option to reboot the phone to its normal mode.

Some newer versions of the ClockworkMod Recovery. Amon_Ra's Recovery is also known to work.

"

If this guide will NOT work with PVT4 please provide link to guide that will or has worked with your phone, I would like to install newest cyanogenmod on my Desire, but don't have time to play with errors, if there are any.

Thank you :-)

[Desire General] mesiu84:
I'm trying to install Cyanogenmod 7 on Desire and according to that howto (I can;t post links because I don't have minimum 8 posts, but you can find it on cyanogenmod wiki) I need to get through 4 points to install it:

1. Rooting phone - and this is where that howto tells me to use unrevoked, so according to your last post I should use amon-ra

2. Installing ClockworkMod Recovery - will this also be installed by amon-ra?

3. Flashing Radio - this is the thing that I need to do manually probably (which version are you using, I'm wondering which version should I choose?)

4. Flashing CyanogenMod (I've downloaded already that latest version and just waiting for the root part to be finished)

Do I need S-OFF to update phone to latest cyanogenmod?
[Desire General] davebugyi:
1. Desire Android developement - under Everything desire

2. You don't install ClockworkMod, You have to install AmonRa 2.0.1 or latest ClockworkMod is reported to be fine (3.0.0.5 or higher). I'd still recommend AmonRa 2.0.1 (link provided previous thread)

3. Using latest version (see signature). Install it from Recovery (before ROM).

You need to be S-OFF in case you want to flash the CM7 Partition Table (get more space).
[Desire General] Tillus:
no.

1. Root your phone with unrevoked and BEFORE you hit the button you go to file->select custom recovery image (or similar, I dont remember exactly) and choose the amon-ra.img. So it flashes Amon-RA-Recovery instead of clockworkmod. Also untick disable security on phone (again, I dont remember exactly but when you see it, you'll know what I mean).

2. --

3. Depends, what radio is installed at the moment. When you are already using Froyo, you dont need to flash radio because it is already version 5.xx . You can flash a new radio any time, you dont need to do that prior flashing roms, they are sort of independent.

4. Flash Rom via recovery.

For the above you dont need to be S-off. You'd need it, if you want to flash another hboot. But before you do that, do some proper reading in the forum and look at the (video-)tutorials in development section and dont try it before you are completely sure what you are doing.
[Desire General] mesiu84:
Yes I know that I wan't to read as much as possible before rooting, but I've got question about that installation of Cyanogenmod, is there any tutorial that you have used for installation of it? I'm thinking about extending partitions and other things?
[Desire General] Tillus:
You flash it like any other rom and you can use any tutorial for that. Basically you do what I wrote in the post above. ;)

CM doesnt support A2sd out of the box, so if you want to use it, you have to use either simple2ext or flash the legacy a2sd-skript (LINK).

What do you meant "extending partitions"?

As I said, there are plenty of tuts for that. Please use search and have a look at the stickies in development-section and the first post of CM7-Thread in development-thread.

Dual SIMs can be fiddly to setup & only a couple of types support 3G function, if your only using GPRS Edge then finding a cheap working dual sim adaptor is easy, 3G requires older analogue sim adaptor or newest 3G compliant type which can be expensive for one that works correctly.
