[G Tablet General] TJEvans:
I originally thought that they didn't want to do this becuase they will then have wasted all that time on the 1.1 Roms that are still in development...but then something dawned on me. Roebeet was able to port 3 existing Roms, all that he worked on, to 1.2. One based on TNT lite, one based on Gadam, and one (and probably best Rom I've ever used) based on Vegan. Keep in mind, he had all 3 of these up and running in about 2 days. He's actually been working on all of those, the HC port, and general 1.2 tools all at the same time. He's created direct and simple processes to flash to 1.2, a revised CWM for it, has Pershoot and Clemsyn on board with kernels.

Call me a fanboi, etc...but the man has really put in some major time on the 1.2 projects.
[G Tablet General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
The whole 1.1/1.2 bootloader thing is stupid and melodramatic. There is little difference, and no real reason to use one vs the other. As builds from Malata get released, this will likely be a non-issue. sooner or later a 'standard' will emerge. Time takes care of this.

As for this 'overhead' between switching, its a fairly simple process to nvFlash. I think we forget that this is an enthusiasts and developers site. There are plenty of threads/articles explaining how to do it. This ain't Viewsonic Tech support. If you can't read these threads and learn how to do this, you really shouldn't be toying with the firmware to start with.
[G Tablet General] shadowhawk2020:
At the moment there is a few good reasons to use 1.2. The main one is HoneyComb :). But it has been found that the 1.2 for the Adam is interchangeable with our 1.2. The adam developers have said they are working on a gingerbread release which means that 1.2 will be the way to get acceleration on a gingerbread rom.

Sure at the moment, if you don't feel like playing around with Honeycomb which is only partially working (I can't believe how much progress has been made in the last 2 days), there is no real reason to switch today. But, it looks like the best of what will come out in the near future is on 1.2 which can only be found on a different web site currently.
[G Tablet General] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
That's exactly my point. Neither of those reasons existed when this drama erupted. It was a silly argument.

As these reasons become evident (and I am running HC as of last night, btw), then people will gravitate towards one or the other. It's not like once you load something with a 1.2 BL, you can't ever flash a 1.1 and vice versa.

The whole thing is just silly.
[G Tablet General] nunjabusiness:
See, even the (former?) President of the Galaxy agrees with me. That's gotta count for something! ;)

I think someone owes someone else an apology and an invitation to come back.
[G Tablet General] shadowhawk2020:
Even if those two points didn't exist then the point is/was that 1.2 is the future. Might as well move that direction ;)

[Desire General] Mixy:
Hey!

Had this problem for quite some time now, but i have just learned to deal with it. I wondered if any of you also experiencing Gingerbread keyboard recognising double tapping when you are not? Its more frequent when i write fast.

As an example the message "Its friday, gotta go out" might show up on screen as "Iits friday gotta ggo out" or any combination of that sorts.

Thanks
[Desire General] ringer13:
the gingerbread stutter...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUZdvr6Pdjk shows it well.

as far as i know, there is no fix...other than downloading a new keyboard such as smart keyboard

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boodies:
Hi guys, I had a quick question regarding using multiple browsers in your android os. Everytime I use another browser, it keeps asking me to pick a browser when I click on a link.

For example, If I am using skyfire and i click a link, it will ask me again if I want to use skyfire or stock browser for the link.... im like.. im in skyfire I'd like skyfire to complete the link.

I know I can solve this issue by setting the default program for internet but if I do set the default to skyfire, it won't let me use the android browser as a link pressed in android default broswer will open up skyfire for any link I press in the stock browser....

Any help would be appreciated thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
Solution: Either keep pressing the select browser to open link every time or use the default browser and switch to using only 1 browser.

Opera is a really good choice btw and better than both stock and skyfire.

There really aren't too many other "solutions" for this. Find a browser you really like and use it for your default.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boodies:
Hey thanks for the help. I guess I'll just have to stick to manually clicking my choices each time because I do want both. Sometimes, other browsers just have problems and I need to use the stock android browser.

I also tried all of them, dolphin(s), opera, miui, etc... I came out liking skyfire best other than the stupid social network bar at top.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boodies:
one quick thought, it only makes sense that this needs to change. it's kinda like using chrome on my desktop and it asking me what browser to use everytime I click a link. Is this a fix on the os side or the app side??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
I use 2 browser which is the stock and opera, I don't have this problem.

try this, if you're on the stock browser select the stock browser as default, then when you're on Skyfire when it ask you again choose Skyfire. I think that's what I did.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rorycs:
There is also a free app in the market that lets you input a URL and choose which browser to use for that specific URL.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
It's OS-side and I don't see it being changed simply because most people use a single browser and never have this issue.

Here is yet another "possible" fix though: Set your default Android browser as default. Get an icon to skyfire on your homescreen. Every time you click a link from within another app (XDA, Email, Messaging, etc), it will open it with the default browser. Every time you wish to use Skyfire, start it up from its icon.

You should never be asked which browser you wish to use again.

[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
What will be the best method to transfer your programs with saved data when the 3d is released? I was thinking TB synching with dropbox. Any other suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] antjc80:
I would suggest backing up all of your SD card data on your computer. When you get the 3D copy back to the SD card and install TB, then restore all apps+data.....but skip system apps+data.

Worked for me when I switched from my TP2 running Haret to the EVO.
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
Good deal, thanks for the response.
[HTC EVO 3D] antjc80:
No problem.

I'm sure if anyone else wants to chime in there are other ways.....this one just seemed the easiest to me.

Hope it helps
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
Well I do have a 16gb card on the EVO 4G. I think I will copy everything like you said and reformat the card then just transfer back the TB folder and that's it. Hopefully that works. I want to still use the 16gb card for the 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] themuffinman:
To use TB on the evo 3d wouldn't you have to be rooted? So what if root access isn't available for a few weeks or so, then what?
[HTC EVO 3D] antjc80:
There's a handy program called MyBackup with both root and non-root flavors that in some ways is very similar to TB. I used it for a while before going back to TB (more features).
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
I have faith in the geniuses at xda to root that puppy.
[HTC EVO 3D] Kalash:
Upgrade to a gingerbread rom with the google account backup feature :-P

It saves your home screen background, applications, and more. They're all reinstalled at first boot, so nothing nasty lingers behind to muck things up....

You'll have to redo passwords and other program settings, but it saves a lot of time.
[HTC EVO 3D] jhuff83:
I have a gb rom now. How does that backup thing work? I noticed it restored from an earlier rom and some apps were restored. Does this randomly backup to Google or something?

K what am I missing? I was going to just put my loaded 4G Sdcard into the 3D.

I just got the 3D today and I was wondering how I would move all my game saves, etc. from my Intercept to the 3D. Thank you for the response!

if it is rooted, use titanium backup or another backup program, then install the apps on your 3d and restore the data
[G Tablet General] generosity21:
I contacted Viewsonic, asking about an official G Tablet Dock, and they transferred me to what they called the dedicated number for the G Tablet (actually apparently a U S Merchants number). The person I spoke with said that the official G Tablet Dock is already available and emailed me an order form.

Any thoughts on this? This is through U S Merchants, (who must be the official distributor of the G Tab since their sticker is on the back of the tablet) but there is no real technical information about the accessories on the order form; whether it is just the Malata dock, or if it is actually made with Viewsonic's blessing specifically for the G Pad.

The G Tablet U S Merchants number is on the order form, so I may try calling again and ask for more details about the dock. Order form attached, hope this is helpful.

Edit: Sorry, just found the accessories area. Will post this there, but can't delete.
[G Tablet General] slm4996:
Sounds like it must at east be "blessed" by viewsonic since you called them and they sent you to that vendor.
[G Tablet General] DumbUglyDragon:
That's the same case we could get from Sears for 4 dollars lol
[Nook Color General] virtualkaos:
Here comes a noob question, so bare with me here....

If I wanted to backup my stock 1.2.0 Nook (non-rooted), could I do this?

1. Boot from my SD card that has CWR 3.0.2.8 loaded.

2. Select the backup option in the menu.

3. After it's done, remove my sd card and put in my computer.

4. Copy the*.img in the backup directory to a safe spot!

Is it really that easy? Will that do a complete backup of everything (all partitions) on my nook? Then if I ever want to go back from being rooted, just restore that *.img and I'm good to go?
[Nook Color General] roustabout:
*almost* that easy

One thing you need to be aware of is that the CWR boot environment needs (in my experience) the full path to the backups it made to be able to see them again.

So you need to grab the /clockworkmod tree intact and save it, rather than fishing out the .IMG files.

To restore, recreate your CWR disk and drop the tree in.

Also, I've seen some things happen with either 1.2 or a diff between the CWR on the device and the CWR on the card where a restore that looked fine and took a long time ultimately wound up not succeeding.

So this is one you'd want to test before you built out a zillion bookshelves.

But this worked flawlessly for me when I was running 1.1, and I suspect the issue is I have a CWR 3.1 card and 3.2 something on the device (and making the backups by default.)
[Nook Color General] cookw24:

[Palm Treo Pro] mapemberton12:
After doing a hard reset on my perfectly-functioning Pro the other day, the screen and buttons have now stopped working. My question is two-fold:

1. What the heck is going on?

The phone worked fine until I did the hard reset. Now, when I do a hard reset, everything appears to work correctly through the screen-alignment. The screen responds properly at that stage. Immediately afterward, the normal Today screen pops up for a split second. After that, the "Treo Customization" screen comes up, and that's where it all goes to hell. After the "Treo Customization" runs its course, the phone says "tap screen to reset." After tapping the screen, the phone responds and resets itself.

After that, a blank today screen appears. The tool bar on top is there and the background is there, but that's it. The screen and buttons are unresponsive except to brighten the screen after it periodically dims. Several other functions continue to work. I can activate wifi via the side button. The top button turns off the screen. Strangely enough, the QWERTY keyboard is completely unresponsive, except that the search button works (alt button and magnifying glass).

Does this sound like a hardware problem? Could it be fixed with a flash and new rom?

2. I tried to flash the phone and install a new rom to see if that would help, but I was unsuccessful for the following reasons: 1) When I run PANTHER_CDMA_HSPL_V101, the bootloader screen appears, but immediately upon that occurring, my sync connection disappears, so I can't proceed through my computer. 2) I can't run the manual flash program (SSPL-Manual-PantherCDMA) because I have no functioning controls on the phone itself.

Any ideas? Is there any way to achieve a flash on an unresponsive phone, or should I start shopping?

Thanks!

I have been having an issue with CM7 starting with RC3. I'm now on 7.0.3 and I'm still having the issue.

After a day of use, my incredible starts to blank-out pop-ups. I can usually still use them, but I can't see them. This is everything from my widgets to the power button.

I use ClockworkMod ROM manager to install my ROMs and from what I can tell, it wipes everything. Not sure what I'm doing wrong or what, but is anyone else having these issues? OR had these issues and fixed them?

Growing really tired of it and thinking about switching ROMs.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:

Also the CM7 nightly thread could probably better answer your question, a lot of those guys only check that thread and no where else and those are the guys who would know best.

By pop-ups, I mean if I click on widgets, like Plume, and want to update my status, my keyboard is not showing, but I can still type letters. Also, have issues with typing in words and it not showing that I am typing them.

[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
There is nothing GTab specific about the dock, its just the malata dock its funny that they are also selling the cheap no name case with keyboard, one would think if there is ever a custom made case/keyboard it would show up with them.

The $50 price is hardly competitive.
[G Tablet Accessories] generosity21:
Can you point me in the direction of a competitive seller? Electroniccrap (out of stock) was selling it for $49 plus (from what I could tell) $9 shipping. The U S Merchants price includes shipping.

EDIT: The only other seller I could find is Ankaka, who sells for about $37 plus $8 shipping. Still about on par with US Merchants.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
$44.99 shipped @ ankaka.

Its also $46 shipped @ merimobiles take an additional 5% off (welcome).

So this is exactly what I meant, they can't be competitive if they are offering the same (in fact even 10%-15% higher) price, not to mention the inconvenience of the ordering process (who is still using money orders/cheques), they will most properly end up drop-shipping it to you from Asia any way, just go straight to the source and order from one of the online retailers above and at least enjoy Paypal protection (just in case).
[G Tablet Accessories] xjarl:
Most of the store are out of stock. You can ask them about this information. Malata's supplier decide to stop the DOCK'S production. But maybe some one have enough stock. They will resume production(or not) 1-2 month later.
[G Tablet Accessories] pyro530:
I sell them through my eBay store but I only have 4 left in stock but I wouldn't say I am competitive on the price, however they are in stock in the US.

I only have the 4 plus I have 20 in route to me from China, but after that I'm not going to have any more to sell until Malata decides they want to produce them again. I would drop the price, but I don't want to sell out of them and not have any more to sell. :-(

I do have some news about a replacement dock coming out that is going to be cheaper in price. I will post more details in a new thread when this is confirmed, at the moment its only a rumor.
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:
Now thats an interesting rumor, any info about if that docking would still have HDMI and LAN ?!
[G Tablet Accessories] pyro530:
Sounds like they are dropping the Ethernet.
[G Tablet Accessories] scyld:
I'm rather glad I bought my now, if that's the case. The ethernet port on the docking station was one of the big selling points for me for the G-Tablet; there are times when I will only have an ethernet connection available and no wireless...
