Hi guys. If any of you lives in Dubai, can you let me know if SGS2 is available in Dubai?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghazi.urfali:
no not yet but you can order it from expansys.ae and it should be at your doorstep in a few days
[Thunderbolt General] psufan5:
And now each month on Verizon im going over 10gb with the Thunderbolt. Im really not doing anything different either. I have the same apps as the captivate, generally use it the same amount.

Anyone finding the same with their TBolt?
[Thunderbolt General] wardo5757:
10 GB? Bull ****! doesnt seem possible
[Thunderbolt General] dbisch:
10GB/mo is very easy to achieve.
[Thunderbolt General] mseliga:
The only time I use alot of data is when I tether, even the occasional Pandora/Youtube/streaming doesn't use that to much.Plus, are in 4G or 3G area?
[Thunderbolt General] Legacystar:
Would be nice to have a list of the apps u use so we can help u
[Thunderbolt General] ska.t73:
I have noticed, and have seen other threads about it, that I am using a lot more data on my TB then I ever did with my OG Droid. Like others say I haven't really changed my usage or apps really. At least not a lot that I should be seeing the jump in data that I have gotten.

It makes me think that there is something with the way LTE is working that is making the phone pull data more then it should.
[Thunderbolt General] mbrown3460:
used 9 gig so far and I only have 8 days left I think. The reason why I use so much because I use the mobile hotspot app to watch netflix
[Thunderbolt General] dirtyfingers:
The iPhone and captivated are 3g phones, if you are using 4g I would expect it to be significantly more
[Thunderbolt General] WillTheGreat:
I tether with my Eris and only use 3gb, I'm at 8 right now with 1 week Tobago. I think I'm forgetting that I'm not on my home WiFi and use my stuff unconservatively.
[Thunderbolt General] what25:
Not surprised.

I used about 2-3gigs on my nexus one t-mobile, and on my t-bolt, my last bill cycle was about 10.5 gigs, no change in how i used it.

I wouldn't be surprised. I have heard stories of 40 or 80 gigs of use, and some claim no tethering either. Maybe on ur next cycle you can force it to 3g only and see how much you use then. Atleast we got unlimited data.

Also > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1071253
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
I used 2.8GB and that is mostly streaming pandora for 8 hours every day. I use WiFi at home. In the past though, I hit 10-15GB/month when I didn't have a home network connection (tethered to 2 laptops and a desktop though).
[Thunderbolt General] mcmillanje:
I think by saying "not using it any differently" we are forgetting that it is faster. In other words, I may still only spend a half hour on YouTube and a couple hours worth of web as before, but in that same space of time I have done so much more...

for instance YouTube and Pandora in high quality mode, downloading. roms over 4G instead of wifi, etc...
[Thunderbolt General] lippstuh:
instead of waiting for things to load on 3g and then saying "eff it i need to go" and put it back in your pocket. 4g is so fast that things loads when you need it to...

only explanation i can think of =P
[Thunderbolt General] mezman:
As Newt would say, "mostly". At some point Verizon will start throttling your data but I admit that I don't know what that point is.
[Thunderbolt General] chrisjm00:
Throttle the top 5%. 10 gigs is no where near the top 5%. And just because its a 4G connection does not automatically mean more data usage. 1 GB of data is 1 GB of data whether on 4G or 3G. What does change is the amount of data you can use in the same hour long lunch break for instance. You can do things so much faster you don't realize how much you actually use.
[Thunderbolt General] makoto:
I'm at the end of my billing cycle and am just over 10 GB so far.

I listen to different streaming radios for about 8 hours of the day, at high quality, using Pandora, Slacker and Winamp's Shoutcast. When I'm at home, my phone is on WiFi.

My wife and I have been house hunting and I use Google Navigation to drive to these houses which pulls down a lot of images.

There may be some times that I pull up a video here and there, but not very often. I have tethered a couple times, but nothing significant.

I originally had AT&T before they got rid of unlimited, then switched to Sprint to get the EVO and now on Verizon because of their ridiculously fast LTE network. If Verizon had data caps like AT&T, or throttled like T-Mobile, I wouldn't have switched.

That's how I typically use my phone and easily use many GBs of data... which gets me thinking... how the heck did we survive on dial-up back in the day? How things have changed.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
The simple reason you never went over 1gb/month with those phones is because it would take more than a month to transfer that much data on at&t's ****ty network
[Thunderbolt General] DRGilroy:
I did 2.9GB last month and that was without tethering. Most of it was probably from using dropbox to download apps, kernels and ROMs that I wanted to test and play with, besides using Pandora almost daily. I'm sure I could hit 10GB without a problem if I tethered.
[Thunderbolt General] raziel36:
I have used 8+ Gigs in a month, no tethering.. and that was with my Droid X, so once I get 4G, I'm sure it'll be easy to get 10+.
[Acer Iconia A500] ilangoadigal:
Since the Iconia has a functional USB port I'm wondering if it is possible to plug in a USB game controller and use it to play on SNESoid or the like? Anyone want to test this out?
[Acer Iconia A500] Shigster:
I think at the moment game controllers are not supported by honeycomb but I know when Ice Cream Sandwich comes out, game controllers will be supported from the get go.

You can try to use the Wiimote though and hopefully that will hold you out till October/Whenever it is released by Acer.
[Acer Iconia A500] Sector51:
I will test later...i did not even come up with this idea.

nice idea btw !!! would be nice if it worked.
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
3.1 is supposed to add support for a lot of these, right?
[Acer Iconia A500] Shigster:
You are correct sir

Please Acer unlock our bootloaders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] cdkizzle:
Yup, I read that 3.1 will add support for 360 wired controllers. Now I just need N64oid to come back on the market, dammit.
[Acer Iconia A500] willbur73:
3.1 does add support, though each app will need dev updates to support input from the controllers. There are some xooms at bby where I work and I tested it there with an xbox 360 wired controller and n64oid. B-e-a utiful!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magarto:
Dear all,

Firstly I would like to introduce myself because it is my first post here. I read a lot this wonderful forum and you all.

I am a spanish man who owns a Galaxy S i9000 and I am using GingeReal 3.2 room.

Last weekend, after restoring from an "on fligh" state , my phone freezed and I had to reboot it. After that, it has the:

a) /dev/block/stl3 and/or /dev/block/bml3 corrupted and I cannot mount it.

b) By this, the /efs folder is empty and it only works (modem) when I give r/w permissions to root "/" using root explorer.

c) phone: unknown

d) baseband version: unknown

As you can see, "everything is wrong" and I am using the standard IMEI (0049...). Also I have some errors in applications due this (whatsapp, jelly sms, etc.).

I have a nv_data.bin backup but if i write nv_data.bin or .nv_data.bak it's being deleted on every boot.

The only way to fix /efs problem is using "dd" to restore a partition "bml3" and "stl3" file backup but I do not have any friend who owns the same mobile phone.

I do not need any content into these partitions (I do not need the nv_data.bin which contains your own IMEI and MACs) but I would need anyone help me giving me that files (without contain).

It can be done by using "adb shell" or "terminal emulator" and writing:

su

dd if=/dev/bml3 of=/sdcard/bml3.bak

dd if=/dev/block/stl3 of=/sdcard/stl3.bak

Could anyone help me?????

I will than a lot.

Also, does anyone knows if with this I could solve "phone: unknown" and "baseband version: unknown" errors because with any Odin and any modem does not work and also I cannot find a baseband for i9000.

Thanks in advance (at least for reading this long and desperating post).

Also I know that it is not the right section but I am newbe and I do not have 10 posts written.

Thanks again.

Mario

[Xoom Themes and Apps] MWFD:
I have a Xoom and a Droid X and up until recently I had been using AK notepad to keep my notes on each device. Well I noticed that some notes that I had on my Droid were not on my Xoom and visa versa despite enabling the sync feature. So I clicked sync on both devices and it wiped out half my messages. Apparently it took only the notes that were on my Xoom and they over wrote what was on my X. Not cool at all, so now I need to know what is the best app(s) for not just syncing notes, but syncing them between 2 or more devices.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] jonnypedantic:
Have you tried Evernote?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] dscribe:
Catch

notes is nice and provides a cloud account for keeping notes synced.

Another nice app is

MobileNoter

. Once you get it set up and working right it will sync your notes from Microsoft OneNote to your phone or tablet. It allows for syncing via both cloud and wifi but there is a small subscription charge for the one that can sync both ways.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Alfahmad:
Springpad

Evernote

Catch

I use Springpad because they have bigger widget which fit nicely for big screen like Xoom

Also I use the chrom extension ..
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
i thought we had it bad back with windows mobile

seriously no other android devices besides samsung require flashing so often to just gain basic functionality of basic device assets

i had an epic back in nov/dec...then got a shift...greatest phone except no dedicated number row on the keyboard...sucks for me

so i moved back to the epic recently because all you forum trolls make the epic sound so great with the new release of froyo

EPIC FAIL

i have had to flash literally once a week or more (sometimes daily) because something isn't right

now i am stuck and need help

i got through 2 weeks with the drockstar RERFS and sold the evo shift...i'm so screwed...days later...

usb mass storage is broken...i cannot load new kernel or roms

wifi downloads have never worked...always get corrupted...

bluetooth is busted...this was my failsafe backup sending files from the computer...

3g is stuck in 1x...i've tried all the fixes...downloading even a kernel takes a half hour for a whopping 5mb

i dont have a usb/sdcard adapter so i cant load that method

i f'in hate the epic...except i can now do my daily data entry for work easily with the row of number keys....HOORAY!!!! (fail)

god damnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is me, angry and abused by an electronic device

currently on the drockstar RERFS ec05...cwm 3.0.2.5 rfs/ext4...genocide 1.0 kernel

because i just updated cwm today and the kernel listed above in attempt to fix it....restoring my backup is fail

i really cant take this
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
It sounds like you either have no idea what you are doing or have a defective Epic4g. First I would recommend taking your phone in for service as its obviously broken. Then, why don't you stick to stock roms which have none of those problems. Also, no rom I have ever flashed had any of those problems.

ODIN back to EC05 stock and just stay there and your problems will be solved. Have you tried ODIN?
[Epic 4G General] rockrerun:
Agreed. Stick with stock if you're having this many problems.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
Flash back to EB13 using the SWUpdate, then let the phone do the OTA update to EC05

Check and make sure everything works, as if it doesn't you got a bad Epic, and need it swaped, and the phone will be all set to take to sprint

If everything works, you can try the setup I am using. It has been awesome, very stable, and has lots of the latest tweaks

Here is the thread for my setup

Be sure you have everything on your SD card ready to go before installing and booting into recovery 3.0.0.5
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
OTA has never worked on my phone

i used drockstars RERFS because it was the ONLY method i have been able to obtain a working !!!!"STOCK"!!!! ECO5

thanks for the replies i will check out your stuff dcrocks

also i just did a factory reset and got bluetooth working so i'm on my way i guess

usb mass storage is still fubar

ONCE AGAIN...FLASHING THE EPIC BACK FROM START

so sick of this s*#t
[Epic 4G General] Lord-Anubis:
I don't know why you cant use any other rom, try ACS 1.1.0, super stable, fast, and saves battery.

1. Buy a better cable, Samsungs' is horrible and has problems keeping a data connection.

2. Odin the stock EC05 .tar

3. CWM 3 it.

4. Flash ACS 1.1.0

5. ???

6. Profit.

Oh and don't overclock.
[Epic 4G General] CardnalSyn:
try using a diffirent usb cable. the stock one doesnt work for some reason.
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
i've never used a samsung cable...and i know why

thanks people

i will hopefully get there

i was on syndicate but tried using widgetsoid 'reboot to recovery' option and failed the rom so i went back to rfs

i've been clinging to the ideas that ext4 is horrible for this device from discussions with noobnl in IRC back in december when i last owned an epic

i dont know if anything has changed...and i have presumed not...mostly because i'm sick of chasing the cheese
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
someone show me a stock ec05 tar for odin

i've never seen one...and its not in the wiki
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
The most common issues with flashing are "user error". Not saying that's the case with you but it really isn't all that complicated. You would be further ahead posting these question in the actual ROM thread. You also need to be careful when it comes to noobnl. He's an amazing developer but lacks people skills and likes to cry fire in a crowded theater. Myself, ACS and bonsai are all using EXT4. The ONLY thing that's even debatable is Journaling and you can pick whatever side of that debate you would like. Just keep in mind that noobnl is NOT the end all be all of development.

Randy at bonsai is a coding god and k0nane and ACS are amazing as well. Their experience, opinions and willingness to actually HELP people out rate them pretty high in my book.

Hope you resolve your issues.

Also starting a thread trashing the device in question isn't the best way to get people in the know to help out.
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
Take your device to sprint (Completely stock)

and ***** at them to give you another one...

then follow directions.

your problems are not common...

Also i recommend ACS Frozen your phone will love you for it and stop abusing you.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
I rank PEBKAC as a close second to CWM being a complete piece of ****... :D
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
i'm bluetoothing acs to SD then i will install

this will be a while...

at least not as long as 1x...but damn

also i should be rfs and srf with the new clockwork

so i dont have to worrry about ext4 and my worries embedded by smokeless fires

(unless k0nane replies telling me srf is going to fail if not converted to ext4 first)

:p
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
SRF properly formats as EXT4.

If you're having signal issues on EC05, flash the EB13 modem after install. Also, use the journal-enable zip in the dev section.
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
i dont know what journaling is

but are you recommending it for use with the eb13 modem or as a general addition to my SRF experience?

thanks people

edit: 67% bluetooth transfer :p
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
An addition to your SRF experience. Journaling being on is a small performance penalty, but will help keep your system sane if you pull the battery or otherwise shut down improperly.
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
My head hurts to bad right now to figure this one out. So I'll ask. PEBKAC?
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
As k0nane stated SRF properly formats to EXT4. EXT4 is the standard going forward. Some of us still offer RFS options but EXT4 is NOT your enemy. :)
[Epic 4G General] ptfdmedic:
Just out of curiosity what are your worries about EXT4? Mabey we can answer your questions and address your concerns.
[Epic 4G General] eigerzoom:
i assumed it was something describing me...lol...

regardless i am grateful for any help for my crappy device

i'm back up on syndicate...got a fc from widgetsoid...i'm pretty much done with that app

its always getting in the way despite having desireable features

just really need to find a reliable widget to toggle 3g...i can live without the rest

from what i remember in december around the time oneDRAM was realized...in IRC it was discussed that ext4 fs was potentially going to shorten the life of the device.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdo700:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmalote:
Anyone know how to turn off weather using location in the new sense 3.0? I want to manually enter my location.

Also the clock widget only wants your current location. There is no way of manually entering. Looks like Google or HTC are narrowing down our options in their efforts to get every little detail of our geolocation data.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DeadMeat:
Hi guys, picked up my shiny new Galaxy s2 yesterday and after playing about with the home screen etc. I have encountered a slight problem. After starting up for the first time the weather widget occupied four spaces (left to right) on the home screen (one high) I moved it off the home screen while deciding what I would have showing on the home pages. I left it off the home screen over night, but when i decided I wanted it back it is only two spaces wide? (left to right). I cant find any setting for width. Any ideas?

Thanks, DM
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Intratech:
Yes, after you have the widget on screen just press it until the phone vibrates and it gives trashcan at the bottom. Let go of the widget and now you will have a grid allowing you to resize the widget.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DeadMeat:
Man, thx for that!! (I know to get so happy about something so small) lolol

[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
hmmmm wolfbreaks rom works on .54/.55/.58 right??

In this case you'd need to flash a baseband patch (the cm6.52 one) and then the custom kernel

yeah that seems the right way to do it

the patch's name is cm6bb49 by the way hehe
