PDair has made a case now. Expensive but it looks good on the pictures.

[Acer Iconia A500] timtucker:
I'm on the hunt for a case or cover, so big thanks for the info. I don't want to drop $120 for the pdair one right now either, so the hunt continues...
[Acer Iconia A500] rorytmeadows:
The only problem I've had with the Acer case is that the device slowly slides out of the bottom because of the orientation, but it's a terribly easy fix.

Mic and everything else have been fine.

Also, smells bad. I'm bringing it around a lot to try and force the smell out.
[Acer Iconia A500] SmittyRN:
Expensive is an understatement... $119?

Give it a few weeks and we will have some Chinese knock-offs that will be better made than the Acer one at half the price.

The Acer case is a nice design; I like the fact that it's thin, tight, with a built-in stand, but it feels like it's made out of some terribly cheap material. I don't expect it to last a long time. A case just like it with better materials and magnetic closure will be a winner for sure.

What was your fix for the sliding? I like the case a lot, but the sliding is a peeve...

That's what i did also, some apps dont like it but generally its ok.. The smell is funny though.

I bring it around and people are like, what the hell is that smell... (it's new electronics...)
[Acer Iconia A500] iqbalbaskara:
for me the biggest gripe is how hard it is to get the tablet out 9f the case. to the point that i'm scared of damaging the screen of the tablet by pressing it too hard to take it off the case :/

the second one would be the smell :P

Does anybody know EXACLTY where the recording mic is?

I plan to do some 'Rocket Surgery' to access the mike and the MicroSD card slot.
[Acer Iconia A500] Digiguest:
Well they DID copy the Apple case from the iPad I believe.....
[Acer Iconia A500] timehunter:
I used a piece of 3M double sided tape, they kind they sell for the various wall hooks that can be removed. It isn't perfect but it seems to have made a fair improvement dealing with the sliding.

I'm going to try the TPD case as well, since I ordered it before I tried the double sided tape, so we'll see where I finally settle.
[Acer Iconia A500] kwparker80:
Bad smell fix

I agree the smell of the case hits you like a ton of bricks at first - and the Acer case is a dust magnet.

Simple fix - wipe the entire case down with a warm wet sponge. No longer picks up every piece of dust / dirt it encounters and the smell dramatically decreases. The smell also goes completely away after a week or so.

Still looking for a good case with a potrait stand as I have a couple of apps that require it or just look better that way. Anyone got a tip for me?:cool:

I'm not sure about XDA's rules regarding revival os very very old threads, so I'm going to answer your post anyway.

I assume you said you're having the same problem running CyanogenMod, right? (otherwise, I can't help you)

Starting from this point, CyanogenMod has fixed this on the recent nightly releases but, since your phone currently doesn't have nightly builds (I think because they're mainly for newer devices on CyanogenMod), you'll have to wait for the next semi-stable or stable release (Release Candidate or Final build) to have it fixed.

Here are the fixes from January 13:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nook-color:
I've read about short charging cord - and the charger looks like a plug in device - that you run a USB 3.0 cable to from the Plug to your device - is that correct---- ?.

I frequently use my current e-reader sometimes while I'm charging it from an outlet at the end of the day.

* Is this possible - or does the device turn off while charging?

* Can I charge the device - while using as an e-reader

* Is there a way to charge the device while on a stand or some sort on a desktop.

I don't anticipate wanting the Dock later on - but having a way to keep teh device charged during my user habits is a must.

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
You can use it while its charging.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuntdouble:
Yeah its mains plug/charger>usb 3.0 cable>asus 40pin cable>tablet. Some usb 3.0 cables seem to work, others dont. Seems to hit and miss if you get one that works. And yes you can charge it up while you use it for anything. There should be 3rd party docks being sold in the near future if you dont want the official keyboard dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nook-color:
I was just planning on using a cheap bookstand - or building something quick and easy that I can thread the charging cable through as a desk stand / charge station.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxp3:
You can use it while it's charging, but the cord being short would probably make it very uncomfortable for you to. That being said, this thing lasts all day, I don't see it a problem if you fully charge it and do a reading, it's not going to run out of juice.

Although you got me thinking about something. The connector on asus end is proprietary, but the other end is a regular usb adapter. I wonder if you could buy a USB extender and extend the cable. This would probably have to be answered by ASUS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SonicTab:
How about a extension cord for the power plug?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuntdouble:
Heh thats what I've been hammering away at today. Finally made one then realised I had an old plate stand thing that works just as well. I had to use the usb 3.0 extension to make it reach up properly on my computer desk though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speckledpig:
Are there any alternatives for the proprietary Asus connector?

Did you move it over to /system/apps or just installed it from the SD or something?

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
Oh. I didn't read the post well. You have a droid. How do you flash update.zip in cmw?

Try using that method. I am not sure if the formats are the same for droid and milestone.

You can also take the miuicamera.apk from the zip file, push it into your /system/app folder, give correct permissions and reboot.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Mrdroid921:
Put the zip in the root of sd, then wipe cache and dalvik then flash it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Mrdroid921:
No luck. It just force closes right away.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sileshnair:
Are you on a GB rom? The app is pulled out from a miui milestone GB rom.

You can also try the miui rom for droid. It can be found at miuiandroid.com under ROM.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Mrdroid921:
Yes it's called liquid GB. I did try the one off the latest d1 rom, and it still just force closes. Now that one I just copied over, didn't flash it, because I couldn't find a flashable zip for it.
[Nook Color General] Eienkei:
Hey guys,

I'm experiencing rapid battery discharge while Nook Color is in standby mode, battery life used to be great while on standby but after using CM7 on sdcard it's nearly discharges like when it's fully working...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
[Nook Color General] luciferii:
sounds like your battery maybe on its death throws.. or perhaps you have too many background processes suckin up juice.. we need more info to be helpful
[Nook Color General] moonpie28:
Reboot without card in and check stock performance. They shouldn't affect each other. Plus CM should have better battery life very soon.
[Nook Color General] deadbot1:
Are you running the performance governor? this would keep your CPU at max ALL the time. if you are try switching to Interactive.
[Nook Color General] madguy2006:
Does anybody know how the batter performance in standby mode for CM7.0.2 compares with stock?

Could you tell me when when the CM7 battery tweaks are coming?

Also, could somebody tell me how to maximize battery time when using Nook?

Lots of questions! Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color General] Rhegaana:
I was on cm7 but the battery drain was an issue for me. There is no fix currently but the awesome folks at the cm7 team are supposedly going to iron this out soon. Stock should last at least twice as long on standby.

If you use the nook mostly at home I would lower the display brightness all the way down, and completely shutdown at night.
[Nook Color General] khaytsus:
Assuming not overclocked, in use CM7 is very similar to the stock ROM because the screen and backlight are taking most of the power.

In standby the stock ROM is around .2%/hr with wifi off. CM7 is around 1%/hr with wifi off.
[Nook Color General] ExploreMN:
I have CM7 nightly build 55 on my Nook and the battery life is amazing.

Besides the feedback others suggested, check to see if you have things actively running in the background. Is the setting to keep Wifi on in standby turned on? That could do it. Do you have some funky mail client on their set to check every 5 minutes or something?

I think the best suggestion was the one previously about taking the SD card out and run it as stock to see how the battery life compares. If it is fine with stock, then you know something goofy is going on with your CM7 install and I would just start over on that with the newest nightly, etc.
[Nook Color General] wpbear:
My batt stats say Phone idle and Cell Standby are 22% and 17 % over a 12 hr period. So those are what are killing me and the NC isn't even a phone.

Battery performance even on overclocked nootered 1.2 Nook Color is great. I am getting drain of less than 0.2% compare to closer to 2% on cm7.

This is due to cm7 not having full sleep.

[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
Hey guys, I'm having some problems trying to create a bootable uSD card for my nook and was hoping someone could tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong. :confused:

I followed this post in the dev forums for reference:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=987735

So, this is exactly what I'm doing:

1. Download 4gb_clockwork-3.0.2.8.rar which is later down in that thread.

2. Extract the file to a .img file.

3. Downloaded and installed WinImage.

4. Launch WinImage and then go to "Disk" then select "Use removable disk E:" (which is my uSD card)

5. In WinImage, open up the .img file downloaded in step 1.

6. Then "Disk" --> Write Disk.

7. Gives me a message that says:

The current image format is not supported by the disk drive E: It will be re resized. Do you want to continue? Click YES and it writes the image to the disk. All the files are there when I look at the disk so I think all is good.

I then put the uSD card in my nook which is off, then plug the usb cable from computer into the nook so it automatically starts. But it doesn't boot from the uSD, just starts normally. When it loads up I can see the uSD card within the nook, and I see all the files that were written to it with WinImage.

What am I doing wrong? Could it be my uSD can't be bootable (my uSD card is about 3-4 years old --SanDisk 4GB MicroSD HC disk and using a USB SanDisk MobileMate SD+ Memory Card reader). My nook is running the latest 1.2.0 firmware.

Any help is appreciated!!!
[Nook Color General] luciferii:
is your sd card 4gigs or bigger?
[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
It's a 4GB card.
[Nook Color General] DizzyDen:
Try using the 2GB image from same post... see if that works... sometimes uSD's report slightly less than standard size.
[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
Tried the 2gb image and same thing, just boots into the regular nook OS. I'm starting to think it might be my uSD card?

When I write the image with WinImage, it only takes about 1 second and it's done. Should it really be that fast? I don't get any errors, but I also don't get a confirmation box saying it's done, or anything like that, is that normal?

UPDATE: I just tried a 2GB uSD card I had laying around and that doesn't work either.
[Nook Color General] Aerlock:
2 options to suggest.

1.) Try using Win32DiskImager instead

2.) Instead of what you did for step 6 try using the "Restore Virtual Hard Disk image on physical drive"

- Aerlock
[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
Thanks Aerlock, I'll try that utility and see if that helps.

For your 2nd comment, if I go into "Restore Virtual Hard Disk image on physical drive", a box pops with nothing in it. Even if I select the checkbox that says use non-removal hard disk(s), nothing is populated in that box to select?

Forgot to add in my last post that the card is a "Class 2" if that makes any difference.
[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
Using Win32DiskImager worked!!!! It boots - yahoo!!!!!!! Thanks so much Aerlock! :D
[Nook Color General] Aerlock:
Are you using an external reader? Some folks seem to have problems with built-in readers when trying to write images to microSD cards.

Class 2 should be ok, you may have problems with streaming movies/music but for normal operation you should be ok. Class 4 seems to be the sweet spot for booting and running off of microSD. See this post: SD Strange-results - or - How I learned to love CM7

Awesome! Glad I could help!

[Galaxy S II Accessories] kayodot:
I've had a look on Google, but I get the impression there's nothing available at this moment in time. Has anyone seen any arm band holders, or holders that would be suitable to use while jogging?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Elythor:
eBay has a whole bunch of different arm bands for jogging.

Although I don't think you'd want to risk such an expensive item...I had brand name arm bands (ie not cheap ebay) for my mp3 player and it still dropped my mp3 player a few times. So in short, arm bands are not fool-proofed.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nightic:
The large Tunebelt 'AB83' works but isn't perfect.

Navitech also have one (on Amazon.co.uk) which they're specifying as suitable for the G S II, although I wasn't that impressed by the Galaxy S one I purchased some months ago (can't recall the reasons why though, sorry).

However, after months of using an armband with my Galaxy S, I've come to the conclusion that the Tunebelt 'IP2' product is just more convenient overall, especially for gym use, where no one mounting position is ideal for all routines.

I've just bought one for my Galaxy S II and the fit is good although the 3 cut-outs for the headphone socket don't align well with the phone's (although it's still possible to plug headphones in, it scrunches up the material a little and would put pressure on the socket).

The simple solution is to place the phone in the case with the socket side towards the opening (which still allows the Velcro closure to fasten), or slightly open up one of the existing socket cut-outs (easy, using a sharp blade/craft knife).

As an aside, I tried something like 6 armbands for my Galaxy S and ended up using the iGadgitz one which was specially made for it. It's not brilliantly manufactured but I have no complaints over fit and the rear opening method for securing the phone is a definite plus versus the top/side style of most other bands.

The best armband I've purchased though (and returned as it was slightly too short for the GS) was an XtremeMac one the for iPhone 4.

It was quite pricey but justified due to its quality, segmented Velcro on the strap (allowing it to stretch easily) and the matte finish window which is a massive improvement, especially in feel, over the common glossy type.

Quite universal, but it works. Bought it originally for the the sgs1, but it fits!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nightic:
Just tried this - it's a very tight fit indeed.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Stitch!:
It is indeed pretty tight, and the power button doesnt align properly. But Ive had it for a few months and the neoprene has stretched a little. Since the galaxy s2 is a bit wider, I expect it to stretch a bit more in the near future. Volume rockers actually work. Went running twice with it now and will prolly go again today. Using mytracks now to see how far/fast I went. together with having music, I would say this is a must have for exercising. The only problem I have with it is that the thing is a bit bulky and looks silly. Hiding it under my sleeve works ok.. but was better with the sgs1 for some reason

Have any one found suitable arm band yet, which is available?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sinzim:
Subscribing to this thread in hope that someone will find a band that doesnt look too bulky or goofy :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] nightic:
The Tunbelt AB84 is the best I've found so far.

Price is high compared to ebay cheapies (I paid £16.99) but quality is far nicer (although still not as nice as XtremeMac's iPhone 4 one), featuring higher grade Neoprene than usual, consistent stitching and stretchable Velcro for the strap.

(Be aware though that the strap is on the short side so if you're larger than average, with upper arms over ~40cm, then you should order the matching strap extender.)

Considering that it's not specifically designed for the i9100, the fit is very good (even with the Samsung Mesh case installed), almost perfect, although as it was designed for a thicker phone the clear plastic 'window' floats a little above the i9100's display. (This isn't a downside as far as I'm concerned as it does not affect touch functionality and prevents the 'bubbles' that are usually present when armband windows are tight against the screen.)

I found that the phone is best fitted bottom first, that way the home button and soft keys are fully visible/functional.

Also be aware that there are no cut-outs for the headphone jack. However the flap which covers the opening is very pliable and can either be pushed aside (see the 2nd photo a couple of posts down) or pulled over the headphone plug without exerting much pressure on the socket (as in the 3rd of my photos).
