CM7 nightly #99 seemed to be the most stable for my g2x so far. But I've had a bunch of problems with #101. I'm going to try Bionix (really hope rc2 comes soon) but I will likely revert back to CM7 as soon as its stable.

[Xoom General] fuyajo:
beside my hurt feelings as an android and xoom fan. ;)

The arcticle is a little one-sided. And a sad thing about todays journalism is, that its all about controversy and polemics. :(
[Xoom General] hatworthy:
I think it's a fair article. Honeycomb has problems and bugs that are hurting consumer adoption and like it or not, the Xoom wasn't a good enough device to make people ignore those flaws.

It's too heavy, the screen is very poor, and it shipped with two major features disabled.

Maybe some of you guys would prefer to be mollycoddled and told nice things, but tough.

For the record, Kincaid has historically been a bit of an android fan. Siegler is the shameless, illogical Apple fanboy.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
That was more like a critical opinions expressed rather than a fair review.

I mean, holy ****, he doesn't even mention the point that honeycomb is a platform built from scratch...he even stated that the xoom with its honeycomb platform can't never ever get close to the ipads perfection. Noooo...ipad with a phone os, ios, has been around long enough for bug fixes, isn't any better than the honeycomb. In fact its dead simple and too familiar for a long time user to get boring. But this guy surely doesn't get bored after probably all 5 years using the damn iPhone.

one more thing, what kind of reviewer in the world complains about the f*cking home button look like a goddamn up arrow. It doesn't.

PS: this is off topic but I'm sitting at Starbucks, a Guy asked me if my xoom is an ipad. Right in the middle of my anger, I told him: ipad sucks. This is the Motorola xoom running android, much better. Then I get the usual "what is android". Holy cow, I should've just told him yeah this is an ipad, It sucks.
[Xoom General] hatworthy:
The writer is an Android user. The user experience on the iPad is currently better than on Honeycomb, something which I'm sure will improve in the near future. But that's the future.

Why should he mention that it was built from the ground up? Who the hell cares other than us early adopters? What's important to the consumer (ie his readers) is how well executed it is and right now it still needs work.

His job is to offer an objective view of the platform, not make excuses for it. The latter, apparently, is your job.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>His job is to offer an objective view of the platform

We must be reading different blog posts. It's an opinion piece. Opinions are by definition not objective.

@OP: My thought is that you should pay less attention to blogger pundits with the usual juvie "us-vs-them" argument. It's not a sum-zero game. One doesn't have to lose for the other to win. I think both iOS & Android will do well.

The more interesting question would be, who else besides the two frontrunners will likely make the cut? One would have to count in Windows 8, if only because of the sheer size of the Windows installed base.

WebOS is a dark horse, and QNX is a REALLY dark horse. And MeeGo for now seems to be a horse without a home.
[Xoom General] dscribe:
After reading the article, I didn't really think it was all that bad. It was the telling of personal anecdotal experience with an early-release Honeycomb tablet. He likes the Galaxy better. Fine. My own experience with the Xoom has been delightful. I will be happier when there are more made for tablet apps available in the market but that will come in time.

I've read a number of complaints about the weight of the Xoom, and while it was a little heavy to me at first, I've gotten used to it and now I kind of like the "feel." I haven't used the iPad so I can't comment on how they compare. I've read other reviews that favored the Xoom over the iPad. I think it is going to come down to personal preference. This is the whole reason why there are both multiple brands and multiple models within brands.

There are reasons why I personally choose not to go apple and it is not because they make lousy hardware. It has more to do with the amount of (in my opinion tyrannical) control they are determined to exercise over their products. Some people think that even this is a good thing; I don't. The guy in the article has his opinion, I have mine.
[Xoom General] hatworthy:
Thanks for that. I was just thinking this thread could do with being bogged down in semantics.

Replace 'objective' with 'informed and balanced' then. Because that's precisely what the article is.

Some of you guys are unbelievable. An Android user writes an article expressing optimism for the future of the platform and the entire piece is rubbished because he has the temerity to mention (correctly, in my opinion and the opinion of most reviewers) that the Xoom was a flawed first attempt. Good work.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
He doesn't seem to be an android user to me. And it wasn't objective. His opinions were all over the place. The weight is judged by preference. I, am a skinny guy, likes the feel of the weight in my hand.

Again, the home button looking like an up arrow doesn't demonstrate the objective view either. That is clearly how much he's disliked honeycomb. Its a practice of fanboyism bringing the smallest thing to show how bad a product is.

If the article is categorized as a review, bring it to where a review should be. Don't involve with other products then compare and contrast them.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>Replace 'objective' with 'informed and balanced' then. Because that's precisely what the article is.

That's the problem with opinions. If it agrees with your view, it's "informed and balanced." If it isn't, it's "trash and fanboyish".

I'm not sure how "informed and balanced" the piece is when it's based solely on one person's experience with one (OK, two) specific device, running one specific version of HC (3.0.1). Pieces like these are afflicted by what I call the-world-revolves-around-me syndrome, ie if I like it, it's great, if I don't, doom & gloom shall follow.

This, regardless of what the writer thinks of the Android platform. Just because he thinks well (or poorly, whatever) of Android's chances doesn't mean his opinion is worth any more than the space-filler that it is.
[Xoom General] hatworthy:
And we're back to the subjectivity non-argument again.

You can always tell when somebody lacks debating skills. They always play for the solipsistic stalemate.
[Xoom General] fuyajo:
Why are you complaining?

Even my girlfriend calls my xoom an ipad. "Can i have your ipad for a moment" :mad:
[Xoom General] boxmander:
while I don't necessarily disagree with some of the HoneyComb criticisms, or Xoom criticisms in this article TechCrunch is a poor site, with terribly written articles.

The article referenced in an earlier post for example:

"Holding the Xoom with one hand isn’t difficult in the slightest, but it isn’t effortless either."

Suggesting that holding it with one hand isn't effortless, suggests that that there is a certain degree of difficulty, more then 'slightest'. This guy claims that "I’m not going to do a detailed run-through of the hardware specs (which aren’t my forte)..." if talking about hardware specs is not your forte why are you writing an article on a site called "TechCrunch"? Unless you are a great writer, which clearly he is not. TechCrunch hurts my brain.

Also by the way most of the criticisms he mentions are not something you can say about the Xoom with the 3.1 update, which is pretty dope. No FC's better responsiveness throughout, and the browser doesn't suck anymore.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>TechCrunch is a poor site, with terribly written articles.

Yes, TC has terrible writers, but so do the vast majority of tech blogs. Sadly, the techies who read them usually aren't the more discriminating types, and tend to confuse them for real journalists.

"Informed and balanced"... hahah, I'm still chuckling about that one.

Gadget blogs are good for gadget news, not for analytical pieces or op-eds about state of the industry.
[Xoom General] jamaicansolja:
Hatworthy seems to be the only one in this thread with half a brain. The Xoom IS heavy.. You cannot hold the Xoom with one hand facing down while looking up for a long period of time. How do I know? I have owned a ipad 2, Xoom, and bb Playbook.. Xoom is uncomfortable to hold in CERTAIN positions. The screen is subpar compared to those tabs named. And is 'unstable' compared to iOS not so much QNX. The Xoom also came with no 4G and SD support ...neither do the competition you say? Well it wasn't promised and used as a marketing ploy like the Xoom thus is the issue.

If the Xoom came with a screen atleast equal to the iPad and Honeycomb was just a tad more stable the Xoom if provided different models I.E 16GB,32,64,etc and was lighter would easily be the best.

You don't mention hardware specs in a cconsumer report my mom doesn't care what's in the computer but how it runs.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
I don't get the 2% of the folks who scream from the rooftops that the screen is not as good as most of the other platforms. I'm not in love with any of them. We have each of them in our lab. They are all horrible for getting anything significant done and the iOS device is the most useless closely followed by the Playbook. I'm glad that my primary reason for getting the Xoom was not so much for work, but maybe next year or the year after, we'll vetsome real utility out of these suckers.
[Xoom General] jamaicansolja:
2%? No offense but why pull a imaginery number out the sky to back your claim? I'm positive a-lot more than "2%" if coming from an iPad 1 or iPad 2 would not look at the Xoom's screen and immediately notice a difference. This is a 'Tablet' no bigger than 10" and used developed as a multimedia hub. No one said the screen is bad because it's not!! It's just not as good as it should be for the price ....
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Jesus, its time for the world to end now. You've got to train her. I trained my girl :D she was wanting me to get an ipad but I got super talkative and blows all the things about the opacity. Then she understood and now she's calling the xoom by its right name.

Did you read the article? If you read it or even glanced at it you would know that the article was written on TechCrunch. Thats not a website that moms read, its for a more technical crowd. I don't know why I am taking time to convince people that TechCrunch is a subpar blog site. Just add it to your RSS reader and read the articles.
[Xoom General] DatterBoy:
The article says what no one really wanted to admit. Hardware, design, weight, smoothness will do more to win the battle over iOS than how good the Android OS is or isn't. With a Samsungf release of hardware that is as sexy or comparable to an iPad, people will flock to it and forgive the problems more readily and shell out in hordes.

Sexiness is going to sell the Samsung and make Honeycomb a more viable iPad competitor. That's all the article should have said.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
Ok, so I have a new Nook Color with 1.2 stock. I booted it up registered it and then I used the manual rooter method. It seemed to root fine but when I started my nook color again it showed some new animation and then after that it wanted me to register it again with B&N. I tried to register but my nook color keyboard pops up and disappears again and will not let me enter any information. I tried reverting back to stock by the 8 failed boot methods but it still shows the new animation and the keyboard still acts the same way. I try using CWR but I cannot format and erase anything. So any clues?

Another question I have is I can use my Nook color with a SD card running Cynamod 7 and it works fine. My question is when I am running from the SD card can I take the card out while the nook color is on and put in another card with lets say music and such?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kypen:
Stupid question: I've had problems on 2 different Nook Colors with "phantom clicks" where, if there is some residue on the screen, it will click there. It's possible that was happening on one of the fields, de-selecting it. Is your screen very clean?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
I tried cleaning my screen and I still have the same problem. Thanks for the advice
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeyfamily737:
Is / was it plugged into power or usb at the time? I've had plenty of occasions where heat from charging has played havoc with my screen, from complete unresponsiveness to phantom touches no where near where I wanted to touch? Second question....No clue, I run from EMMC.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
No it is not plugged in
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
I have tried it unplugged, plugged in, plugged in to computer, unplugged from computer, cleaned the screen, used a stylus and still no help. The keyboard will pop open and then close. I think I really messed up my nook and will have to run it from SD card which android does run fine.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
So since knowone has an answer is it possible to format the full partition on the nook color and then reinstall the original stock image. I tried reinstalling the stock image but that did nothing. I was just wondering if I can format the nook color that would get rid of all the images of rooting and such.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ieaiaio:
I'm having this exact same problem. Were you able to fix it?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john1970:
Actually yes I was. I did the 8 failed boot and then after that I did reset to factory defaults by pressing and holding the power button and the n button while booting after a few seconds I released the power button and kept the n button pressed and it went in to a factory restore. It took a couple of tries.

Hope this helps

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] danstheman7:
Battery extender as in a skin with a built-in battery. It doesn't replace the stock battery, but acts as a second one.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] danstheman7:
Powerskin Review...

Design- Sort of bulky. Nice feel to it, and has a quality rubber, but it collects fuzz and lint from pockets, so it's annoying in that respect.

Size-It's fat as hell, surprisingly. Doubles the phone in thickness.Adds a nice amount of weight to it, but it feels good on the phones' already-light frame.

Performance- The phone recharged faster than I expected, adding 30% battery without loss of even 1/4 battery. Signal and GPS didn't seem to change at all with the case on. I'd definitely be afraid to drop the phone in this case because the front is (practically) fully exposed, but it's better than nothing.

***after three weeks, it would charge 30% maximum. The battery degraded very fast.

Overall, it's a bulky but solid case which has performed exceptionally.

**degradation of the battery was all too common, even between two different products. Therefore, I'm rescinding my positive review.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okrampf:
I'm having a problem with having both bluetooth and the wifi being on while running Virtuous Fusion ROM > 1.0.1. If WiFi is on and once bluetooth is turned on, wifi continues to work for maybe 5 minutes and then wifi shows to be connected, but it won't transmit any data. Once I turn bluetooth off and turn wifi off and then just turn the wifi back on, wifi works.

I don't have this problem with v1.0.1 of the ROM, but I've tried every newer version (doing a full wipe or doing an upgrade, tried both) and all of the revisions have this problem for me.

I'm a new member so the forums don't allow for me to post this as reply to the ROM thread in the development forum. Can someone help me, or at least repost this as a reply in the Virtuous Fusion ROM thread?
