[Xoom General] armychris28210:
was bored and went to best buy to get some kinect games<2 for 60> and played with the acer iconia and thats about it. i tapped the app icon several times and after 4 times it finally changed. swiping took a while.very laggy and unresponsive, the huwei was faster. the housing looked to be cheaply made and felt even cheaper....i do love my xoom, and i am a xoom fanboy, but i am not niaeve as to where i wont give something a chance...just wasnt impressed at all.not While i was there though, i cleaned up their xoom and installed spareparts, locked brightness to highest, changed background and loaded the xda widget... it was running alot better after i got done..anyways thats my pointless post.
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
The display Xooms are always laggy and generally much crappier than the actual units too.

I do understand your views of it though. I don't think anyone argues that the Acer outside hardware will be more solidly built than the Xoom though.

FWIW all the videos and reviews I see of the Iconia Tab look just as smooth as the Xoom. Its basically the same internals and same OS, there shouldn't be any ridiculous difference in user experience between them.
[Xoom General] armychris28210:
yeah..prob just crappy displays...still ugly imo..you cant change that!
[Xoom General] martonikaj:
Definitely.

But display units always drive like crappy rental cars. Just gotta take those experiences with a grain of salt.
[Xoom General] UnMonk:
I played with it at bestbuy today.

It does feel much cheaper,

but the screen was noticeably better
[Xoom General] GiRARDsays:
Bought an Acer Iconia on Friday. Definitely a great device for the price. On par with the Xoom in my eyes. I ended up returning it though. Not because I was unhappy with it, but because I picked up a brand new WiFi only Xoom off Craigslist the next day for $480.
[Xoom General] slowrey:
Heck I played with an Iconia and it was slower than the Xoom as well as it felt cheaper. I could grab the Iconia and flex it whereas the Xoom I couldn't.
[Xoom General] paulc35:
returned my G-Tablet for Iconia A500

My Iconia A500 touch screen is very responsive. It was worth the $150 more over the G-tablet. Glad I bought it. Many of the reviews I've read actually prefer the Iconia to the Xoom. They're so similar, but the Iconia is $449 instead of $589
[Xoom General] tpham08901:
the aconia is a nice tablet played with it a bit a few days ago, still prefer the xoom for the build quality.
[Xoom General] LIH:
woa thats no good. i definitely be unhappy with something like that...

my xoom is built like a tank
[Xoom General] dulaney22:
The Iconia feels like a Yugo after handling a Xoom. Unless the Transformer has a better exterior build I will be sticking with the Xoom.
[Xoom General] buksterthegreat:
I returned the Acer for the wifi xoom and couldn't be happier that I did. Acer is nice but the battery was weak and those cut corners really got on my nerves. The Xoom is a much better device IMO.
[Xoom General] aholstenson:
The thing that has bugged me a lot on the Xoom is the quality of the screen. Other than that it feels a bit unbalanced at times, but overall its a pretty good piece of hardware.

I'm hoping for a good build quality on the Transformer as the screen is supposed to be better on it.
[Xoom General] Philio25:
I saw both in Currys yesterday for the first time, the Acer felt cheap and plasticy, loved the Xoom and ended up buying it.
[Xoom General] 0diin1:
It's thicker than the Xoom. A lot thicker. Shouldnt be too much flexing going on.

I may be wrong but I think you guys might be talking about the Asus Eee Transformer. There is no plastic feeling about the Acer Iconia since its back is more of a metallic feel. All reviewers complain about the cheap feel on the Asus back cover area.
[Xoom General] foxmeister:
I have read a lot of Transformer reviews (I have one!) and I've not seen any of them complaining about the plastic back being "cheap" - that's not to say such reviews don't exist, but I've not seen *any* and you've said "all reviewers" ;).

If anything, it feels very high quality for plastic.

[Xoom General] sano614:
There is an xda widget?
[Xoom General] armychris28210:
yes there is a widget......and no...im talking about the iconia, not the

GO-BOT...unless bestbuy thought it was so poorlymade that they changed tags and put little stickers on a different tablet to trick the customer.....
[Xoom General] sano614:
Got a link to the widget by any chance?
[Xoom General] paulc35:
That is the last description I would give to the Acer Iconia A500. I have one and thats bogus. Very solid. Read the PC world review of the A500 and this guy gives the good and bads and comparison with the xoom and ipad. I might say that about the G-Tablet I sent back, but not the A500

[HTC 7 Pro] blindpet:
I appreciate that WP7 autocorrects certain contractions. However, WP7 only corrects im to I'm when it is at the beginning of a sentence. If I type im on my hardware keyboard mid sentence it does not turn into I'm. Can this be fixed by a a dev or do I need to complain to Microsoft and HTC. I also don't know if this bug is specific to my HTC 7 Pro or to all WP7 phones.
[HTC 7 Pro] Morpheus Phreak:
I'm thinking this must be specific to you.

I'm running the HTC Arrive and I tried 3 or 4 times and it corrected 'im' to I'm every time regardless of placement within a sentence.

However it seems to recognizes IM as being correct since it's a correct usage for instant message.
[HTC 7 Pro] blindpet:
Maybe they fixed it in the Arrive, I'm on an unlocked 7 Pro.

Here's how it works on my Arrive. Mid sentence it'll correct it "im" to "I'm", but once I hit backspace it'll give me a bunch of different options including "IM" once that's done though it assumes you meant "im" and not "I'm".

Hope that helps.

HI - I pray that some can help me resolve my issues. I had to return my phone to sprint for another, this morning I received my new phone and started the recovery process unfortuanely in the middle of it i remember that did not back up my orginal system. Now I have this error "can't open recovery cache" when I attemt to enter in to rooting steps. it aborts on each try. Can some pleaseover me some advise on how I can gain access to my recovery rom so I can complete my rooting process?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If you're trying to restore the backup of your old phone, I HIGHLY don't recommend it.

Can you just not get into recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RamesisX:
No Sir I am not, I have no way of gaining access to the recovery system, my phone is functional but I have no way to go into recovery program. I have made a terrible mistake, once I hold the volume button down and attempt to enter hboot it simple locks with the 2-phased dark battery with the big red triangle.

this is the message i get

Place the file on your sdcard, as it is, not renamed, not extracted, ect. Boot into the bootloader, it'll scan, apply update, reboot, reboot into recovery, and you'll be on amon_ra 2.3.

The ! is you trying to get into recovery, but you're on stock recovery, which is no recovery. And you are rooted, s-off?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rstuckmaier:
Do you have root access in your rom? You can try installing a recovery image from ROM manager or find the AmonRa thread on here and flashing the PC36IMG.zip from that thread from within hboot.

To answer your previous questions

The ! is you trying to get into recovery - Yes that is when i get the error

, but you're on stock recovery, which is no recovery.

And you are rooted, s-off? - No I not rooted yet

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
In the bootloader, your phone is s-off, correct?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
What method of rooting were you using, and which recovery did you try flashing? As teh roxxorz asked, your hboot is s off right? It sounds like your best bet will be to run an RUU and start over again.

I was in the process of performing this when I got into trouble, I have the andriod bootloader install, I power down and reboot using volume down key and power, once there I allow the system to perform system check then I select hboot, I have inserted usb cord once this process start and directily run unvoked3. What occurs then is it is not recongizing my phone for some reason and just sits there in limbo for 15 to 20 minutes. I have also unistalled htc sync, cleanded files, and reboot 3 times. I will continue and maybe i will get lucky
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
You need to turn the phone on, normally, boot into the phone, then connect the phone in charge only, do that, and run it again.

If you ARE worried about viruses and whatnot, I recommend a free app called Lookout. Not because it's a virus scanner, but because even the free version allows you to track your phone for some time from your computer if it's ever lost or stolen. It'll even activate GPS for you.

so I just got the atrix today, rooted it, and then installed gingerblur.

It seemed to work fine, but now when it rebooted for the first time as gingerblur it says the finger print scanner is initializing and it won't let me unlock it manually. The screen then goes black and the only way to turn it back on is to take out the battery and put it back in, but it just does the same thing.

Did i already screw up my phone? :(

[Atrix 4G General] bradym239:
I had/have the EXACT same issue. Here's what I can tell you I did to "work around" the issue. As the phone is booting up, continually swipe your finger over the scanner. Ultimately your finger will be scanned and the phone will unlock. Then go into settings and change your screen lock to something other than the finger scanner. This will allow you to unlock the phone and have it work again.

Ultimately when the screen goes black it's just the display timing out--but there is something that goes on with the finger scanner that won't let you wake up the display.

I'd still like to know why GingerBlur does this to my finger scanner (and yours apparently) but not others.

LTE is not dependent on whether your 3G is set to eHRPD or Rev. LTE will work fine either way that is a 3G setting.

For the OP though your settings are correct. In my area at least and since the outage I have not seen the eHRPD type 3G network go back up and it connects to Rev. A not eHRPD when in 3G area regardless of that setting.

Rev a isn't able to transfer back and forth from 4g to 3g basically... so you do.need it.for 4g
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolutioncsr:
Not true. Actually Rev. A does transfer back and forth. They were using eHRPD because the transitions were supposed to be smoother. Either way it is a Mute point because if you ask around eHRPD is not currently active since the outage. Just go to "Phone Info" while in a 3G only area even with eHRPD on in EPST and you will see Rev. A under network type not eHRPD.

You absolutely do not "need" eHRPD for 4G.

I have mine set to Rev. A and transition many times a day in and out of 4G areas daily.

CM7 is plenty popular, heck all the Gingerbread ROMs here are based off it's source tree.

The issue is the Cyanogenmod team isn't posting here and that is what would be required for a CM7 thread to be in the development section.

Since it's just "users" talking about CM7, the thread is in General and there are a few.

Again, it's all just users pointers to the ROM, stable or nightly and not the actual development team posting it so it belongs in General.

Service.exe is something that is suppose to help keep your system from crashing as running services in Service.exe is suppose to help prevent the failure of other systems if a driver or service crashes.

Manila.exe has to do with HTC Sense

I suggest you take out your SD card out and boot up your HD2 and see if you still have the issue. If the issue stops then your SD card had become corrupted and is causing troubles with Sevices.exe when you boot wwhich in turn is causing problems for Manila.exe. If taking your SD card out helps, then make a full copy on your computer of your Sd card and reformat it using Panosonic formating software (Google it) do a full wipe and use Fat 32.
