[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
I got my G-tab with TNT already installed. I just followed the tutorial for installing Vegan 5.1.1 and it all worked fine. Technically, if you follow it completely, when you do the repartioning, it will erase everything that's already on the tab, so, you don't need to manually remove it, but it will get removed...

If I'm wrong, I hope somebody corrects me. All I know is that I didn't to a darn thing, but follow the tutorial.
[G Tablet General] Biggils:
No troubles moving from TNTLite 1.1

I flashed Vegan Ginger RC1 over TNTLite 4.2.5 (1.1 bootloader) this weekend. Thought I'd give it a try before moving on to a 1.2 based version of Vegan or ML. :rolleyes: At the start I wiped only the data, flashed the ROM, but tablet hung at the splash screen for an inordinate amount of time - 30 odd minutes. :confused: Went back to the beginning, wiped/formatted the data partition (relying on faulty memory of the actual options in CWM), re-flashed the ROM, and everything is A-OK. :D

It's an interesting ROM with some nice features and I think I have more exploring to do. The only issue I've had is Pandora FCs right off. May back off to an earlier version of Pandora.
[G Tablet General] trewm:
First post for me here but I did exactly that this weekend. Went from TNTLite 4.4 to VeganTab 5.1. Did the repartition, cleared the data caches and installed VeganTab without a hitch. Just remember to back up your apps first.

[G Tablet General] brettdwagner:
I did the same thing recently, however I used NVflash to return to stock beforehand. From what I've read it's not really necessary, but you really should consider taking the time now to get NVflash up and running now. It will save you one terrifying afternoon in the future.
[Defy General] Dhia.Mili:
I'm thinking about getting a Defy, how can i be sure that its earpiece won't fail? i read somewhere about something writing under the battery from which we can know if the Defy have a defective earpiece or not
[Defy General] xtrmshadow:
Under the Battery where you got the device's SN, you should see a BF or BT or a blue dot,then you're on the safer devices that presumably have been fixed.

Honestly mate,its more about luck,mine doesnt have any of those 3 and its working great so far,i did order a k850i earpiece just in case this one fails true,but so far its great.

^^

Respect
[Defy General] betoaoki:
It seems that any Defy manufactured after January 2011 is fine. Also, unofficial info is that series that begins with BTxx and BFxx or that have a blue dot near the serial number are ok.
[Defy General] Dhia.Mili:
thanks man, i don't want to have to replace the earpiece with the K850i's one because i want to take underwater photos ^^
[Defy General] Dhia.Mili:
How can we know the production date?
[Defy General] dynamics_blue:
+1

plus 1..........
[Defy General] Nightstalker1993:
Well, just for the record, i bought my Defy in late January with serial number BT and the earpiece didn't fail completely. Instead, for the past few months i've been using it, the sound cracks and breaks pass 1/3 in-call volume and in very rare cases i can't hear anything at all until i pressed the top of the screen.

So yeah, phones with serial number starting with BT doesn't means its fixed. Either that or i was really unlucky.

Just sent my phone in for warranty this afternoon btw, should be getting it back tomorrow :)

Told the service center technician that i already flashed to 2.2 and he said he can close one eye and just change the earpiece for me without touching the software and voiding the warranty :D
[Defy General] MrBelter:
motorola support on their own support forums say BTxx and BFxx or that have a blue dot near the serial number are ok :confused:
[Defy General] viper.:
i was just looking into my Defy but i cant see anything with BT , BF (no blue dots either) just battery which is BF5x lol. Made in 2011..
[Defy General] henkholland:
Look UNDER the battery.

And in general: with electronic devices you can never be a 100% sure that a certain piece will never fail.
[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:
I went to see my Spine Surgeon today ( I have a really bad back and need a 2nd Spinal Fusion, Facet Joints this time, I take Percocet 10/325 and HydroMorphone 4mg for Pain). Any ways when I was done and leaving I over heard my Dr. talking to another Dr. about the Motorola Xoom and how he would like one to replace his laptop and the the iPad 2 was out of the question (as he has a Droid X and liked Android). As it happened I had my Xoom with me (I take it everywhere with me and showed it to him and he was VERY impressed and said this is what he was/is looking for. He asked about Google Voice (as that's important for him and I said it will be coming). I explained how Honeycomb was a new OS and needed sometime to grow and he understood and said he did not like iOS. I showed him Evernote and used it with my Stylus Pen and he said he would get one later today:)

If Dr.s start seeing an advantage of the Xoom/Honeycomb over iPad/iOS, Honeycomb will make a big splash. I also showed his nurse Toy Story 3 and Avatar (Blu-Ray) and she was sold as well.

The Dr. he was talking to asked me if I had Rooted yet ( he obviously knows what's going on and I said No as I had not seen any ROM's worth Rooting for yet) and that the only reason for me to root so far is to Overclock to 1.5ghz. I told him that the SDK or AOSP for Honeycomb had not been released yet but when it does I will definitely Root and start Flashing ROM's/Kernel's. I showed them my Rooted HTC EVO and how I was using it as a Wireless Hotspot (in the Hospital) and they were really impressed.

Suffice it to say but if Dr's are starting to hear about the Xoom/Honeycomb it has major potential (especially in that area). I told him about the HTC Flyer and that it may be worth looking at as well as it may be more to his liking. I told him it was only 7" but he liked the 10" form factor and wanted to replace his laptop and use it while talking with patients:)
[Xoom General] inspiron41:
if he has the income, he could probably get them all XD
[Xoom General] diablonyc2:
As great as the Xoom is and the I pad, hospitals will take a while to get behind it due to security. Drs can store Protected Health Information on the device and run the risk or a data breech if lost ormaliciuos software allows access.

At my org there has been talk about the Playbook due to it being on a blackberry platform, but the pressure is out there for them to allow droid and apple tablets which they are trying to delay implimenting.

By the way...I carry my Xoom with me at my hospital and get lots of questions from the docs, butuse it primarily for school so its not on our network
[Xoom General] GarnetandBlack:
A 2nd fusion - wow. That sucks. I hope this one gets you all set.

We need more folks in the professional sphere to start touting the benefits of android. That will come with time though - apple effectively has a head start on the whole tablet thing, just as it did with popularizing the smart phone, but it won't last. I see android tablets taking this market over as well - once two or three iterations of hardware and software occur.
[Xoom General] arrtoodeetoo:
You DID show him Google Body, didn't you??

[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:
Me too bro, me too. Right now I am on Percocet 10/325 and HydroMorphone 4mg (4x a day) and that stuff is VERY, VERY, Strong. The HydroMorphone is 4x more powerful than Morphine. They are going to Fuse my Facet Joints as they have become loose and Arthritic
[Xoom General] jasonziter:
As a PA for an orthopaedic surgeon I use my xoom a lot. Rdp to our office emr is a snap. The battery life is way better than our office tablet laptops. In fact....just before surgery he asked if I could pull up the office charts on a patient we were getting ready to do surgery on.....I trurned on the EVO hot spot and (I have the wifi only model) I had the chart up in a minute. I don't like ios. He is a Mac guy but I'm slowly winning him over. Its gonna take time but I can tell you after booting the iPhone / ios ill never go back for our needs. I can send scripts to pharmacies, check patient charts ( hospital system and office emr) with the click of three buttons.

Android kills.
[Xoom General] tumbes20000:
Well I am primary in commerical real estate investing but I also own som retail businesses and I have replaced my laptop with my xoom. So far so good. My biggest complaints are that the office programs are not robust enough, especially on the spreadsheet side (I have quickoffice hd and docs to go full). Also, I think google needs a builtin file manager for the tablet os (one more reason not to have one os for all android devices). Google needs to treat the tablet like a netbook and not like a big phone (like apple does with the ipad).

The portablility is awesome and the beats carrying my laptop around or reading docs and spreadsheets on my epic and blackberry. Basically when need I need to create a spreadsheet or scan something I hope on one of the desktops at the office. Otherwise its zoom. Plus with google cloud print I can even print from the xoom!

Overall its getting there. Make the tablet a laptop replacement not some cool extra toy like the ipad and google will completely capture the business market.
[Xoom General] matrix2004:
Should have told him you can use Google Voice but you just need to install the apk.
[Xoom General] Kah-Neth:
Fortunately Honeycomb supports encrypted the storage drive so that should not be that big of a problem for Android
[Xoom General] iNdioNicarao:
Cool Story bro!
[Xoom General] ggareis:
Now we just need more tablet compatible apps.
[Xoom General] erzhik:
If Google wants to sell its OS to doctors, they really need to come out with some special medicine oriented apps/s. I'm not talking about apps from users or small companies, I am talking about official Google apps like Body.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
bet he just wants it for Google Body - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.body&feature=search_result
[Xoom General] FrayAdjacent:
More than likely, they will be using some manner of client/server situation, where the patient data is centralized, and the client just being a dumb terminal. Only have to worry about access control, since no critical data would be stored locally.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
my thoughts too

you'd not want any data stored on the device - only apps/whatever to get at the data remotely.

problem is you'd then need wifi to corporate network and that may be a big security no-no in some places, unless a vpn solution is incorporated...
[Xoom General] diablonyc2:
It will be interesting to see "what's next" in this field...as governemnt regulations on protecting data become more and more intesne. Client/Server seems to be the best scenario currently through a secured connection.

If someone could build a better mousetrap the market is wide open! It will be interesting to see how the Playbook fairs....could it revive the brand?

As for the Xoom --- love the size of it...cannot wait until I get a good portfolio for it to make carrying around inconspicious! I plan on phasing this in to take the place of my notepad.

Is this a warning? He has been uploading many more files. Global is included as well.

Good Luck
[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
There are clear instructions in the How-to thread, there's no need to start a separate thread here.
[Xperia Arc General] SandroV1972:

Before the global file was posted many "non english" web sites were posting the instructions with the wrong img file link.

Mine was just a warning.

Of course NOW it is obsolete!

[HTC Inspire 4G] anit77:
Ok, so I'm having a sync problem. I know it has nothing to do with the rom I'm using but after quite a bit of searching I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. (must not be using the right terms):o

After a clean flash of Saga 1.0.1 last night I restored my contacts from a backup I made within people. This morning when I got up I had some duplicates & even triples of contacts but not all, kinda weird. I've had this happen in WM on my Tilt2 when I sync'd on multiple pc's but that's not the case here and when it happened then it would be all contacts not random ones. Another odd thing that happened is a couple of

received

mms's got sent back to the sender. I think it must have something to do with Gmail and/or Htcsense.com

Well when I got to work I sync'd with my pc then cleaned up everything in outlook & wiped contact storage on the phone thinking that I would just resync with the pc and all would be good. Not! When I tried to sync with HTC Sync it will not load the contacts to my phone and Gmail would not add them back either.

Also, being the moron I am, I had also deleted the backup on the sdcard because there were several linked contacts and I wanted to start from a clean slate. The only way I could find to sync back up with the pc was to do a FDR and select manual syncing in the setup. Is there a better way of going about this?

The pc is running 32bit win7 & I'm using outlook 07. Any help will be much appreciated!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
okay this seems REALLY confusing. to clear some things up, what all does your phone sync to (htc, google?, outlook?), and where are your contacts stored that's kinda like your home base for contacts from which everything is synced? Outlook, or google?

also, your google account on your phone, is it the android google account? or do you have a separate exchange server set up?

and yeah, if you try a FDR, let me know what happens with this. that might just be a good way to clean up all the residual stuff...
[HTC Inspire 4G] anit77:
When I initially got the phone I used HTC Sync to pull office 07 contacts from my work pc. Since then I've been using a vcard backup on my sdcard. I also had google setup to sync with as it also restores apps, wallpaper, etc after flashing. I thought that google would ignore existing contacts, it did for some and not others.

The google account is the gmail account I setup when I got the phone.

The FDR did work and everything is fine now but I want to be sure it doesn't happen again the next time I flash a rom.

Thanks for your help!
[HTC Inspire 4G] nhshah7:
Glad I could try to lol. And maybe next time just pet Google do it so you don't introduce extra copies of contacts to your phone :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] anit77:
Where does google store the info at? When I log into my gmail account on my pc there are no contacts stored. If I'm going to let google be my "home base" I'd like to be able to edit it. At the same time how safe is the data? I have birthdays, anniversaries, addresses and so on in my contacts.

This is my first android phone. It's funny that I had no problem rooting, flashing, adding themes or side loading but the **** that's supposed to be simple is what's f'ing me up.:rolleyes:

Hey guys i am new to this forum and am facing problem as below. Let me know if someone has experienced similar problem:

has anyone installed GingerBread rom: VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition STABLE RC1 posted by gozimi?

http://vegantab.gojimi.com/2011/04/11/vegan-tab-gingeredition-stable-rc1/#comment-591

I brought a new gtablet and updated the stock firmware on it.

then i installed VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition STABLE RC1. but its now stuck in boot screen with 3 birds and not moving forward. Clockworkmod did said that it installed the ROM successfully.

looks like something to do with boot loader..Tap n Tap guys have become smart enough and blocked boot loader for any other custom rom.

i got one post from gozimi:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036956

which says that they have locked boot loader on recent tnt roms. i think thats my case.

My questions:

1.) is there a way to bypass the boot loader?

2.) Did anyone has luck installing this ROM.

Thanks

I have a big problem with my Milestone CM7.0.0 11.04.18b.

When i want to connect the phone in mass storage mod with my pc, the phone get rebootes. I can not use usb mass storage. I have tryed to mount-unmount, manualy reboot, bla bla....the same result. :(...

Where can be the problem?

I haved that problem many time before now, but the solution it was to delete AOR from my memory card and after that usb mass storage it can be used...now not even with that it doesn't work anymore :((.

Thx guys.

Try inserting the sdcard directly in your computer (that are usb dongles that can do it for you if your computer do not have a sd card reader) and check the sd.

I have inserted the sd directly in my computer and is just ok. Work without any problem. I have formated sd a few times till now, but the result is the same...but only with CM ROM. If i will flash any other rom, there is no problem with my sd....i really don't get it what i did wrong...:-??
