Does the new clockwork recovery work with showcase? If so can we just ODIN the red voodoo CWM 3.x from times_infinity? Thanks.

Maybe I missed this is some thread but, miui lockscreen on this Rom/theme locks up, fc's and boot loops. Had to reflash sfc then hnz57 to fix it. Thought I was totally screwed for a minute there. Now I see its a problem sbrissen is fixing. Warning to all , don't use miui lockscreen yet! Oh, and thanks for the theme! Nice work.
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
np sir...yea that why im still on the first release of Heinz_57 ROM...dont feel like dealing with MIUI lockscreen yet
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
This theme was update to the newest version of the Heinz_57 ROM built on 5/3/11!!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] kasandoro:
Not to disparage a great theme, but is there any way you could tweak the notification text color? White on light gray is a little hard to read :)
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
this is how the original maker of the theme made it...if its not like this i believe it will screw up text else where

Gotcha, I'll take it :)

Thanks for the quick reply.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
I just bought the gtab from office depot and while I love it the viewing angle is really bad. If I flip it upside down (buttons on the left) the viewing angle is wayyyy better but then I can't watch videos because they are upside down.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Return and buy an ipad.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Office Depot has a no return policy.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Yes, it does. They charge you 15% restocking fee if the item is an open box.

Someone on here, who claimed to be working for depot, once suggested that you can exchange the item claiming it to be defective, then don't open the one you exchanged it for and go to another depot to return for a full refund. I've never tried this, but I guess it's an alternative if you have no problem with doing something like this.

Regardless, please read up on an expensive gadget like the gtab before you decide to buy it next time.

The gtab is really not for the faint of heart.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aasoror:
not true.

not true.

Here is OD return policy right from their website:

That said, the T&C seems contradicting, restocking fees implies refund, missing accessories implies open box, yet the statement before it clearly says "no refunds for open boxed items" but the first sentence enumerates the conditions for return/exchange which doesn't say "unopened box" :confused:
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfin13:
Yes, because there are no Android tablets that have great screens :rolleyes: Return it and fork out an extra $100 for a Transformer, if you can find one (and you will be able to soon). Don't bother trying to sell the gTab -- it's rare to find something that loses so much of its value the moment you hit "Submit" on the order screen.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
Seriously, when I purchased mine, I read every review under the son, and even the positive ones pointed out the less than spectacular viewing angles. I bought it anyway becuase I figured it was something I can live with, and it is.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:
I think we're making more drama than is really necessary here, it's not that bad, I happen to love mine. I did not want to spend 500 bucks+ for something I can't expand the memory on, or be able to customize like I want to. Is it for everybody? No, but I think it's pretty darn good. You can always try the Transformer I guess when it's back in stock, otherwise you're looking at spending several more Benjamin's.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Well, I think all the complainers are drama queens as well. But since they are drama queens, I feel it is my obligation to send them to apple and let apple take care of them.

I recommend apple product to most people who ask me about gadgets and computers for this very reason. The gtab is .3 lb heavier than the ipad, which most people can't even feel the difference. And yet, in the past few months ever since the gtab came out there's been a kazillion people crying bloody murder about the million ton weight of the gtab compared to the ipad.

I feel it is abundantly clear by now that the gtab has bad viewing angles. The only thing we can do when someone asks about how to fix the screen is to direct them to the ipad.

So, in short, I am making a big deal out of this because drama queens want to make a big deal out of it. Apple ipad really is the way to go.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] californiarailroader:
Not for me, too expensive, too closed and non-expandable memory. I have 32 Gigs in my gTablet now, I would have had to pay $600 to get that from Apple, and I just don't have that kind of money. I'm sure it is better in some things, but for 300 dollars less I can live with the differences, and I am loving what I have, that's all that's important in the end.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
But californiarailroader, the gtab is .3 lb heavier than the ipad, which equates to 30 pounds in drama queen language. You're not going to be able to live with a 30 pound difference are you?

Personally, I love my gtab. I've already incorporated it into my daily work and entertainment. I use it to read the news every morning when I ride on the train to the city. I read pdf documents with it. Check email. It basically does everything I intended it to do for me. That said, I don't recommend the gtab to anyone. Like I said, let apple deal with the whiners. I only want to help those who genuinely want to explore this neck of the woods.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
I believe he's being sarcastic, yet realistic.

Basically his thinking (if I may) is that if somebody complains about the weight, tell them to get an iPad...if they complain about the screen, get an iPad. If they complain about lack of iApps, get an iPad.

I've used my stepfathers iPad, I complained about the lack of customization, lack of memory upgrade, lack of USB imput, and lack of "not being an Apple product." Therefore, I got a Gtablet.

essentially, if anyone gets a G-tablet, or ANY OTHER Android tablet and complains that it's not an iPad, then our only advice would have to be, GET AN iPAD!!!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfin13:
He was complaining about the bad screen, not about Android. There are people who claim the screen is good, and some who say it's terrible, so I don't really blame him for taking a leap of faith to see for himself. He's found it unacceptable, so he should return it and get an Android tablet with a better screen, of which there a few out now, and several coming in the next few months.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Thank you!

Since the ipad was the first mainstream tablet to hit the market, it is inevitable for people to compare everything else to it. That said, whenever people want to compare the gtab to an ipad, I advice them to get an ipad. Again, if they want to complain about the .3 lb heavier weight, then I advice them to get the ipad. If they complain about the screen, which there should already be a billion reviews telling them about the screen by now, the I direct them to the ipad.

There was a review I read long ago in which the reviewer complained about the black space around the screen. Ironic how after he complained about the black space around the screen he went ahead and praise the ipad, nevermind that the ipad has an even larger black area around the screen.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Look, there's been a billion reviews online telling everyone about the bad viewing angles on the gtab. If after that he manages to complain about the bad viewing angles, then I can guarantee you that he will find something else to complain about no matter what tablet he gets. Just direct them to the ipad and let them be apple's problem.

Long ago, I used to work as a cop. You know what different departments do when they find a 10-96 (aka mental subject)? They find an excuse to drive them to the next town over and drop them off there. I was a cop at a Chicago area suburb and we had to deal with Chicago cops dropping their mental subjects in our town almost on a daily basis. While it was annoying, I have to admit that this was really the most efficient way for the Chicago cops to deal with their mental subjects.

What I am proposing is we use this same strategy in our case. We direct all the whiners to apple and let it be their problem. Problem solved.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfin13:
I will accept all whiners into the fold if it means HC gets a bigger market share :)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
I dropped the gtab because the screen gave me headaches yet I have a transformer on backorder right now. I also am recommending the iPad for most people so I have less wasted time explaining what "root" of the sdcard is so they can install cwm
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Once I rooted and put the VEGAn GingerEdition on this bad boy, the screen has seem to have gotten "better". Maybe it's because I actually have market, I can watch flash videos without stutter, apps don't force close every time I try to run them, or any number of other problems I encountered on the stock software.

Honestly, I'm starting to get used to the screen. Plus, I might take a whirl at making a ROM or theming for the gtab :)

If you get one of the cases with the kick stand / easel extension the viewing angle is not an issue.

I have the 27 dollar amazon one with usb keyboard built in. Its perfect for when i am sitting at a table or desk.

The viewing angle is an issue when i am sitting in bed or on the sofa however

But at less than 300 bucks... it cant be beat
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dueces99:
I actually bought mine from Office Depot initially. Realized after an hour or so that it was an impulsive purchase and returned it with a full refund and open box. Then bought the Elocity A7 from a Micro Center, after about a day realized I missed the 10" for the same price. Returned the A7 for a full refund then bought the GTab again from Office Depot. If their refund policy is what everyone is saying, it must've changed in the last month. For me, I was told I had 2 weeks to return it for full refund.

Also, I ended up taking it back to exchange it (soft bricked it when I didn't know what I had done or how to fix it) and after exchange I was told my 2 weeks was then renewed starting fresh. The policy for returns might vary depending on the location, but this was the case for me.

Hi all

I have just downloaded the newest version that was available here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056329 and plugged in my DHD and ran the upgrade now its been upgrading for the last hour.

My question is, is this a normal waiting time for an upgrade?

BTW i upgrade from 1.72 and its a stock rom.

All i got on the screen of the DHD is a black screen with HTC log in the middle and at my pc it just says sending...

Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

It's been on off and on in Huber Heights the last several days.

I had heard from a reliable source that it would be on by the end of April, but I don't think that's gonna happen. Of course with the outage a few days ago, maybe things got behind schedule a little.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
Today is may 1. Just fyi.
[Thunderbolt General] jaykruer:
I would expect it to be soon, as Cincinnati was a launch market. They would most likely expand outward from the launch markets. I think that it would most likely be there within 2 months. Also another thing to note is the 700MHz spectrum and hoe far it travels. If 4G is brought to a town or city somewhat close to you you should be getting it. I live in a town in northern Kentucky, a couple miles away from Cincinnati and I'm getting solid LTE here.
[Thunderbolt General] kkozma:
Yeah I knew April was already over, but it is technically on in Riverside and parts of Huber Heights. Take a drive down Brandt Pike and/or Woodman/Needmore Rd by Stebbins High School and it will come on.

Posted in this forum so that it is correct forum

There is already a 'how to root' thread going, suggest you post there for help.

27/05/2011:

-------------------------

Modified the Iconia Tab GB's xml files to remove the need for portrait mode and change the name so not as to be confused with the original ginger break.

File attached.... signedGBIconiaTab1.20.apk (296.8 KB)

good luck

Older Details:

-------------------------

Root based on Chainfire's gingerbreak

Usual rules apply, if you break then best efforts but in the end it's was up to you to click 'root'

Thank you for your tools and time:

apkmanager; Daneshm90

apktool; brutall

Superuser honeycomb; j4mm3r

gingerbreak initial version ; Chainfire (Please review this for all the requirements)

The Android Exploid Crew for the exploit

Thanks you people for your help and input:

lou0611,dc13,maddler,nycbjr,seraphimserapis, it2steve, thor2002ro, rmgold & of course all of the team xda-developers

Special thanks to maddler for pointing us to the exploit

Chainfire for his apk version and work on gingerbreak
[Acer Iconia A500] monki-magic:
More Details

What we done to gain inital root:

turned on usb debugging & unknown sources

leave usb connected between tablet and pc

must have microsd card in the device (you may loose all the data on the card, read Chainfire thread)

split open chainfire's gingerbreak.apk with apktool

hex edited the gingerbrake.png change HONEY to HRI66 (see this link after reading the exploit)

added the updated su from xoom (thanks guys for coming to help me!)

recreated the apk with apktool

resigned with apkmanager

pushed to /data/local

launched apk install using oi file mananger entering the whole path to apk

set tablet in portrait mode and locked rotation

run the gingerbreak tool (it installs the root, updates SU and installed superuser.apk) waited about 4-5 tense minutes

confirmed root in terminal

install busybox

There are other method (which maybe easier) please check the 'How To Root An Acer Iconia A500' thread

Step by Step Root Guide [Long Method]

As with most instructions read completely before starting...

based off gingerbreak's instructions

usual rules apply, if you break then best efforts but in the end it's was up to you to click 'root'

Install Applications from market:

oi file manager

busybox installer (or Titaium Backup)

From your setting menu:

settings/applications

check Unknown Sources box

setting/Development

check USB Debugging

On the PC and Acer a500: Using ADB (I needed to download the usb driver from acer & sdk for adb):

(from the folder where the apk & adb is...)

connect your micro usb cable make sure usb debug comes up !

copy the apk to storage

On the Acer A500:

insert micro SD card if you have not done this yet

Rotate display to Portrait mode

Lock the screen its the little button under the VOL up/down (just incase)

Launch file manager

find and install <Gingerbreak>.apk (name will be different depending on version)

Install the application 'GingerBreak' (name will be different depending on version)

Return to apps menu

Find and launch 'Gingerbreak' [you must be in Portait or it will FC]

Select root device

Wait for it to reboot (2-10 mins, if you want monitor it with aLogcat or Logcat)

--- after reboot ---

Remove the rotate lock

Disconnect the usb cable

Uninstall Gingerbreak

Launch busybox app which will install busybox !

Install your root apps (my first are Titainum Backup and Cpu Master for me)

enjoy your Iconia a little bit more...

Regards and Best of Luck

Probably for people like me that are new to rooting a device, detailed instructions can help others to understand and maximize success.

Placing the SD card in the slot was (for me) unclear per the original instructions, I just decided to try it since I was at a loss and it worked.

I bought a SGS i9000b in Brazil. Unfortunately the battery is different from the international SGS. A friend game me a Momax 2700mAh with the backplate but unfortunately this thing is useless for me.

Anybody has any track about an extended battery that works with the SGS i9000b?
