Sprint gave me a refurb with 5 dead pixles and glass was peeled up the lady pushed on the glass with her finger nail was a ***** lol told me it was cosmetic said there wasn't anything she could do for me. I wasn't goona take a phone that looked like crap and have moisture get on the screen she then went and got a tech guy they swapped it out.

Dead pixels are a hardware failure, thus covered under the warranty for free. No Insurance needed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njonas01:
Don't sweat it

Dead pixels are a known issue. I took my phone to Sprint and as long as there isn't any water damage they will swap the screen out for you..NO Hassle. I was extremely surprised at how easy it was for me to get my screen replaced:)

There was a leak of a bunch of beta apps back in April
[Xoom General] ScottC:
Registered, and 10 minutes later I got a market update for Music with the Music Beta name. Installing now!

This is indeed the new player - but it won't do streaming till your account is provisioned.

Help link with more on streaming and the Google Music Manager is here: http://www.google.com/support/mobil...page=guide.cs&guide=1091282&from=1091282&rd=1

Don't think you need to register, i just got the update and don't ever recall registering? Woot!!
[Xoom General] grahammyhre:
The music.apk update doesn't give you music beta. You have to go to music.google.com and sign up for the beta.

Has anyone received an invite email yet?
[Xoom General] Elysian893:
The problem with this whole Google Music thing is that I can't buy music from Google and have it automatically go to the cloud... That's why I love Amazon MP3 and that's why I will continue to use it.

I can see i can update the music player from marked and get the music beta cloud, mine will not install this update it says the item dosnt exist, can someone please uploade this apk?

I just received an invitation as well, so I accepted it and can now browse the Music beta site. Of course, it won't really do me much good until I get the software update as well, as browsing the site on my 3.0.1 Xoom is laggy. Go figure.

suck! GRRRR! it wont actually let me log into the service... just keeps saying "Thanks for your interest. You've already requested an invitation to Music Beta."

Interesting, just downloaded a market update for Music app and lo and behold, I can now stream music. They also tossed in some extra music I didn't have before (during the sign-up process you can select genres to get free music). Nice.

anyone have any idea how to find out what account your xoom is registered under? I have a google apps account and a normal gmail account. I believe when i first turned on the xoom and put in my gmail information i used my google apps account. well since the online market came out i am never able to see the apps that i use under my google apps account but i can with my gmail account so i use that account to download apps from the website but i do have apps that i have downloaded under the google apps account.

confusing i know ... but that might explain why i got a invite but i cant get it to work. any help would be awesome. thanks!

anyone have any idea who i can contact to see whats up with this?

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angomy:
Oh multiple-flavors-of-android gurus,

I'm planning on trying out Honeycomb on a spare uSD card. How does the market treat multiple installs (swapping out uSD cards) on the same device? I did a web search, and a thread on a different forum said that most purchased apps check based on user account, but some check based on a unique identifier (SN? Mac ID? wasn't explained). Is this correct? I wouldn't be able to use them both at the same time so concurrent use of a license wouldn't be happening.

It seems counter-intuitive to have to re-purchase apps (that aren't re-written for different android OSes) because you're running a different version of android on the same device, but I wasn't able to find out for sure.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byronczimmer:
I've done this for a number of different ROMs, all on SD card installs in the same Nook color unit.

If I've paid for it (or "paid" for it due to the freebie of the day from Amazon) from either Amazon or Google's markets then I can download the app again without issue.

If it was a FREE App, then it's not been stored in my profile and I have to find it again.

There are programs out there that let you share app-lists with your friends to get them set up easily, which includes the free apps which are a bit annoying to find otherwise -- and surely you are your own best friend?

HI,

I am facing weired problem with calibration of my HTC touch Dimond.

Suddenly calibration of my dimond goes crazy and if i click on one item, the item above 2 rows is selected and i am not able to re-calibrate as i am not able to go in setttings.

I am also running Android and i am facing the same problem wih android calibration also.

Can anyone suggest what to do ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Huckleberry88:
Sounds like your touchscreen is broken and does not process the touch signals correctly anymore ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Ludacris:
you can recalibrate it, but its a pain in the ass and only works if you are on 6.5 / sense 2.5 as you can go to the last sense tab and then hit more and navigate trough the menus via the keys..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Suhaib10:
It could also be the rom you are using try another one to see if it fixes the problem

So this is my first phone that doesn't have a physical keyboard and I'm having some trouble. I came from both Droid one and two and the LG touch so I have always had a physical keyboard and now without one I'm somewhat lost. So please anyone with a keyboard app recommendation please speak up!

P.s. I have big hands and tend to hit the wrong key because of that.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] maizekidstill81:
Swift key. It learns as you type. Once using if for a while it predicts almost everything you are going to type

I use flext9 because you can swipe the keyboard or use the keys normally, way smoother than swype IMO.

I have used swype, swift and the GB keyboard.

For texting, landscape or portrait they are great.

The problem is for emails. Once you lay the phone over to landscape and start to type an email, the kbd takes up the whole screen. Is there a way to shrink the keyboard say 20% or so?

I second (or third?) Smart Keyboard Pro. It is super accurate for me and has plenty of features/options and nice themes. My favorite has been the ability to use the volume rocker to move the cursor and the ability to go back to a word that was inadvertently corrected wrong and fix it easily. I had the Incredible before this, so not having the trackpad has made these features so much more valuable.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] dbisch:
FlexT9 is free on the Amazon store. I'm digging it so far.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] ERIFNOMI:
I've hear bad things about the EULA of flexT9. Apparently you agree to let them take any data you type and they aren't responsible for anything that happens if that data gets out. I haven't read it myself so maybe that's not even close to true but it's probably something to look into.

I use the keyboard from gingerbread. I don't mind the stock HTC keyboard (I like the long press for just about any symbol) but I like the darkness of the gingerbread keyboard better. Just fits in with my phone better.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] toomie05:
i agree with him its a simple keyboard that is very fast and accurate as well as the text prediction is awesome
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] mcimo88:
Ultra Keyboard is one of the more customizable ones that I've come across. It is along the lines of Better Keyboard, but with even more options, like swyping. You can also change the height of the keys, which is great!

I'm a big fan of Gingerbread Keyboard after getting used to it with CyanogenMod.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] lgldrgdlr:
The gingerbread keyboard from the market has the arrows. I'm using the free version and all you have to do is hold the space bar for a second and drag up. Hold and drag down to hide them. That's, by far, the best feature of the keyboard. Not to mention the speed and accuracy.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] n0thing2bdone:
i found with the gb keyboard that it would add a single space after any auto-correct inputs. is that right?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] microdot:
I am still in the search for the perfect keyboard. It seems like i have different issues with all of them.

I love flext9 because of the different input methods but i have two major issues. One, when i type very fast in landscape mode it will pick up the swipe motion and predict diff words. Two, it seems to get stuck sometimes and almost freezes up so that when you type a letter and will take 2-3 secs and then respond.

I love the layout and skins on thumb keyboard but when you type in landscape and press the "done" button it does nothing so you have to turn it back to portrait, then press done then press send. Very annoying. Also the number keys on some of the skins do not work. When you press them nothing happens. Weird.

The keyboard that comes with vlingo has a very basic layout and when ever you press the botton to switch to number keys the voice command opens up because its right next to it and then you cant get it closed. When you press cancel it just pops up again.

Just downloaded the gingerbread keyboard that everyone talks about so fingers crossed. :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] comper:
Unless you're a bad speller, Swype is by far the best option in my opinion. To me, it's like Swiftkey and the other "smart" keyboards are like learning to hunt and peck really well on a computer keyboard where Swype is like learning to type the right way (in terms of speed). I've tried many keyboards but I always go back to Swype, nothing else has been quicker for me.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] AndroidGraphix:
SwiftKey Beta just rolled out. I've attached a picture of it. I've been using it for a while. Best keyboard yet. Before the beta version I was using the standard SwiftKey. The beta version has arrows you can add if you want them.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jharris0221:
+1 for SwiftKey X (in Beta).

It gives you statistics to show how useful it is: after a month of using Swiftkey/Swiftkey X, I've been 34% more efficient. That's one in three keys you don't have to hit. It's prediction is accurate and has built in error correction too.

The fact that it learns from your language off of Facebook, Google, and you SMS is too cool. I see phrases that I use pop op in the autocomplete often.

One tip: when you install, go to Settings>Advanced>Spacebar Will... and select the "always insert a prediction" option. Makes it much faster.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] litso:
I tried SwiftKey X, and I like where it was going, but I kept running into some weird bugs/functionality. For example, sometimes a key would seem to get stuck, every time I would type a letter like 6 g's would show up first. I'll definitely keep playing with it and the new releases though.

For now I mostly use Gingerbread Keyboard. I'm so used to the stock keyboard, works just like I want it to.
