Why does everything only go to the U.S.A.?

I have just tried to request an invite for the Google Music Beta. I am the owner of a Nexus S and have just ordered my Xoom tablet online and got excited when I saw this thread but of course... low and behold, the Beta service is only for the U.S.A. and I am in Canada.

How disapointing, unfair AND STUPID as far as Im concerned that this Beta is only available in the States. Are us Canadians not the same quality customers as the Americans especially since the prices that we pay for everything here in Canada are substantially higher than that of our American cousins which makes me even more upset since our Dollar is worth MORE than the Greenback and has been for quite some time!!!

Come on Google... Open the door to your cousins in the GREAT WHITE NORTH!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

1st day Xoom purchase, requested invite the day of the Music beta announcement....still no invite received.
[Xoom General] inspiron41:
just got three invites across three of my gmail accounts!
[Xoom General] sangreal06:
I just got another invite with the XOOM language on my primary account
[Xoom General] SQurel23:
Finally got my invite via my primary account. Last week I got two invites, both of which are tied to my Xoom as well, but never got one thru my primary. Today I got one that didn't mention the Xoom and I also received a response from google.

Thanks for your interest in Music Beta by Google!

We're working on accommodating additional accounts for Xoom users, and

I've made a note of your preferred email address.

We appreciate your patience.

Ok. I just got mine and set everything up and it's currently loading my big list of songs to the cloud.

However, I cannot figure out how to get my XOOM listed as a device. There is no "Sync Music" under my sync settings, and it's not listed on the music.google.com>settings page.

Is it blocking root users like Movies is??

[EDIT]

Nevermind. For some reason, the new version of Music failed to install when I downloaded it last week. It's working now and it's awesome!

One thing. How do I 'Pin' a song or an album to my SD folder for playback offline?
[Xoom General] cobraextreme:
Got mine (a second one) at my primary account, too! I'd like to imagine that having sent them a message about it helped, but I'm guessing it was unrelated.

Now my only problem is no Linux client for uploading. Gross.

hey guys, besides uploading my music ... why my own music app can't see the cloud music??
[Xoom General] El Daddy:
Try closing and relaunching the music app a few times. My xoom synced right away but it took about 4 relaunches on my nexus one to sync.
[Xoom General] p-slim:
I haven't uploaded music yet but when I do will it automatically sync to my devices even though under the sync options there isn't a music option?
[Xoom General] p-slim:
Nevermind, the option just popped up in the music app

Did you try downloading a RUU update .exe and running it? I think that can get it out of RUU itself.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] srgsbdbal:
I have tried several. all say different errors.

the problem that happened with the RUU was that it got stuck when it was updating "system".

before this, i could load from the sd card but it would get stuck on "system" when updating as well.

so i tried the RUU, and now Im stuck there. I cant boot from a gold card, cause all i get is the RUU or RUU USB

[XDA Developer TV] thoughtlesskyle:
im a big fan of xda tv, esp Sam and Azrienoch's shows, and i am currently on an EVO 4G but, the hero over the past few weeks has had some what of a renaissance also i know the MT3G, along with the slide have also had some big developments recently too such as sense 2.3.3 ports which is an even crazier feat than it getting ported to newer devices given the hardware constraints. MDPI phones are still alive and kicking i just never hear about them on the shows. other than that you guys keep me in stitches.

i feel like i will get flamed for this thread but that's just my 2 cents about it
[XDA Developer TV] azrienoch:
I loved the first Gen MyTouch. Frigging indestructible. Don't follow the forum because my MyTouch wont turn on--think I bricked it. Sam covers high traffic forums, and I for the most part cover portal stories. If there's something outside of those sources you'd like to see on XDATV, just let us or a portal writer know, like you're doing here. Anything in specific you'd like to see about it?
[XDA Developer TV] thoughtlesskyle:
so i have seen some stuff on the portal recently things like the honeycomb hero port and the 2.3.3 sense port to the hero (i was the one who ported the port to it and im not asking for coverage or even a plug) which was then taken over by nfinitefx who did a fresh port from scratch.

but this guy SebastianFM was the first to port a wildfire S ROM to the MT3G which i then ported to the HeroC, that same Rom was also ported to the GSM hero. Also a user in the MT3G slide forum ported a cha-cha rom.

The G1, and the HeroC both have SDK honeycomb ports also which are slow but proof's of concept.

sorry if i came off like a **** in my first post i meant no disrespect just the hero holds that special place in my heart much like your mt3g does to you
[XDA Developer TV] thoughtlesskyle:
haha i thank you sir, i think my gut exploded laughing at that

Hello all. I'm new to this and I have to say that the work you guys do here is nothing short of amazing!

I installed the cmod 7 rom on my evo and found this dark horse theme. I would love to have it but I cant find instructions on how to install it. I downloaded the file onto my pc then moved it to my phone sd. Then I went to recovery and tried to install the zip but it showed up as a file with several other files inside that wouldnt allow me to install.

Can anyone please point me in the right driection to find this? Thanks again for all that you guys do!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
did you unzip the zip? if so, that's the problem.

welcome to the root world btw.

also, check out the themes in my signature. kfunk is part of modnation, so they're similar to darkhorse.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdaysoccer:
I know theres probably a thousand topics on this but none of them seem to have the same exact problem or they do and dont have a solution. I can boot my ROM and i cant boot recovery. the only thing i can get to is HBOOT. I have tried many of the PB31IMG.zip files but none of them work. i have also tried the RUU exe program but that did not work either. im kinda graspin at straws here cuz i dont have a phone right now. im also wondering if i should just take it to verizon, but with that im worried about them finding out its rooted, because it still says "S-off" on the HBOOT menu. Any suggestions on what to do?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] al2x:
To my knowledge if you are in a bootloop with no secondary recovery such as Amon-Ra or CWR, the only other option is the RUU downgrade your Inc through the Android HBOOT Recovery. Use these guides here:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdaysoccer:
I have tried that exact process, both options, to no avail...thanks though. Is there any way to revert S-Off back to S-on through HBOOT?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godsmacked4653:
For whatever it's worth, my phone was s-off when I took it in to Verizon. (I was having the vibrations-of-death)

They saw the phone wasn't booting up, and even saw my unrevoked splash screen, and that was good enough for them to send me a new phone.

Honestly, I don't think a majority of those sales reps would even know how to get into hboot, and really don't know a whole lot about Android. I'm not saying it'd be impossible to get someone that lurks XDA in their spare time, but... it's unlikely. :P
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
And if they did lurk xda they probably wouldn't make an issue of you being rooted :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtremebrdr:
I actually just had the same issue as you and spent around 21 hours trying to get things fixed with a few devs and we had no luck. basically the phone would act as if it would take the ruu flash and claim it did and update the hboot like it did but made no change in order to complete a boot cycle. I had no recovery no rom just hboot and fastboot worked. every other option failed. we chalked this up to a hardware failure of some sort. I flashed the lastest Ruu and called *611 explained the problem and they overnighted me a new inc. I still have S-off on the phone but every other item radio/hboot/kernal is all stock. I doubht they wil lreally notice the S-off. all in all the phone is back to stock full wipe. Good luck.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdaysoccer:
I ended up taking it to the Verizon store today and the rep thought it might have been the battery so he tried a new one of those, but that wasnt the issue. I'm pretty sure he booted into HBOOT because he was playing around with the power and volume buttons, but he didnt ask me anything about it being s-off or rooted or anything and so theyre sending me a new phone, because unluckily they didnt have any in stock at the store i went to, and i have to send this one back. So, so far, it looks like no one really cares or even knows where to check for it being rooted.
[EVO 4G General] jimgpayne:
Ok, you probably won't believe me when I tell you this... Because I am not so sure I would believe it myself... but here goes.

I have a scooter whose digital dash is not displaying the correct speed.

My solution???

Velcro my EVO to the dash and run SpeedView and use that as my speedometer.

Everything has worked fine since I started doing this last summer. But recently the back of my EVO has become loser fitting.

So today; while traveling about 50 miles per hour; I hit a bump and my EVO sails off the dash (leaving the back still velcro'd on the bike) and hits the road. The battery flies off and the phone comes to rest *laying on it's face*. :(

Gasp.....

I get off the bike and run out in the road to pick up the phone and battery before someone runs over them. Then I put the battery back in the phone and the phone's back cover on.

Surprise!!! The phone works flawlessly and has no scratches on the screen or case damage. :D Which amazes me because what scratches I do have come from the phone being in my pocket. :confused:

And that's not all!!!

This is the :eek: *second* :eek: time this has happened in the past month.

Guess I need to buy a solid case to hold it in place.

But who would have thought the EVO was so durable????

:)

What does "timely" mean? And does this represent a change from what they were previously doing? My impression is that most/all of these companies would say that they already roll out updates in a "timely" fashion, regardless of what we impatient users think, and that this is just a commitment not to stop doing that.

Google announcement bad news for G2X

This is typical Google BS - saying one thing and getting everyone ready for that, and then turning everything upside down with a different "plan".

2.4 was supposed to be a functional update for 2.3 the optimize it for dual core performance. If you search "android 2.4" - you will still see most links stating just that.

Now, from the above announcement link, it is supposed to be the end-all OS for all devices. Don't expect to see that any time soon now. The "original" 2.4 was supposed to be coming out soon, and I was looking forward to a port or possibly even an G2X/O2X update.

I am annoyed enough with Google that I suggest that take their "Ice Cream Sandwich" and stick it both up where the sun does not shine and where it will melt!

I want a duel core OS and I want it now, as per their earlier alleged plan - it was due out in April.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adk21589:
I wish I could put this question in a more thought provocative way... but the problems very simple and random:

I've been running the latest evil fascination rom on inmuts -50uv kernel for over a week now with spectacular results in every aspect of the rom. (honestly one of the most satisfying rom packages imo) *with outstanding battery life I might add*

The weird: when I first set up the phone, I assigned on of the standard android notification sounds for my text messages. A day or two ago, it changed on its own and when I went back to the settings, the only two options I got were "silent and facebook pop"... (*note: I don't even have Facebook app installed and have not a long time ago.. I just use the browser)

This same problem occurred in my default Clock app as well and so now the only sound option I am able to assign for any of my alarms is "silent' :confused: ...irony kills me

Any ideas as to what might be going on? I use custom ringtones but I have never made a custom notification folder on my sdcard so whatever must be clashing/happening might be internal.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dalamar1320:
Taking a blind guess, but I'm guessing the facebook app created the notification folder on your sdcard where the "facebook pop" resides. And for a different reason you probably have a ".nomedia" file in your system/media folder. Delete that file to regain your original sounds.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adk21589:
Resolved!

Thank you so much, that did do the trick. Both the .nomedia file as well as the facebook sound file that was creeping around in the system/media directory.

It would be nice to know how it decided to revert the settings on its own...
