[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuriousTech:
Very true. Using voltage is like guessing when the water is going to stop coming out of a hose by measuring pressure. More resistance = more pressure, or lower power = higher voltage. Pressure has little to do with capacity.

At near full charge it should be 4235mV (pressure from charging) then drop to around 4100-4180mV when it completes and switches off or you unplug it.

The phone does use V to trigger events though. 3500mV is the shutdown trigger and when it's pretty close to full you can trigger the battery full message by turning the screen off and on. Or at least that's what I've noticed with the current kernel I'm using, which kind of sucks. I was assuming it could read the charger state rather than guess by noticing a small drop (assuming the charger stopped). The charge circuit works using accurate current and resistance measuring, so the software part is a little blind. CurrentWidget is pretty nice. It only shows the charging current, not drain. But it can show when the battery is being charged and when it actually completes.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rorydaredkign:
Was flashing a few ROMs last night , and suddenly the touch screen has stopped working. Can ROMs break the touch screen? Have tried a multitude of roms now and no improvement. Boots up but cant unlock or anything. It has not been dropped, so if the digitised has actually broken then its broken of its own accord.

Also, phone not being recognised by the RUU so I can't return it to stock. Any tips, or people who have experienced the same?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
You will need to send it for repair. Don't worry about having flashed a custom ROM etc...

My vibration motor packed in yesterday and I called HTC to arrange a repair, they sent me a copy of their warranty details, I quote

"A repair will be classed as in Warranty except when excluded in Clause 7. A copy of the warranty card can be download from our Global Support site at: http://www.htc.com/www/support/warranty.html"

Read clause 7, you will see it makes no mention of software modification. The only problem now Is the 20+ days turn around due to a "backlog" of repairs. Hope this info helps.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 8igdave:
" unauthorized modifications" could be argued to include software as well as hardware.

I guess we will find out if you refuse yours if it has a custom rom on it. Though I think only an arrogant fool would send their phone off to be fixed with a custom rom on it when they had the chance to put it back to stock.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Consider me an arrogant fool. I had a think about what custom ROM to load before I send it away. I've settled on MrGaraks latest MIUI. I'm hoping the repair tech goes,

"**** the bed, this is much better than the **** we put on the phone"

The support Guy said they get quite a few android handsets that have custom ROMs loaded, not particularly the DHD, in for repair.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rorydaredkign:
Absolute effort. Hmm I wonder if three will do exchanged or something. This is the one aspect Apple excel in sadly. Broken phone, take it in get a perfect looking refurb instantly.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
How long have you had the phone? Both Orange & Phones4U said they would've replaced the handset within 28 days, but mine is 7 months old.

I'm still trying to get a swap, as 20+ days is not reasonable. I'll find out Monday.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rorydaredkign:
October, so 7 months too. He said its 28 days roughly turnaround in store or about 10 if i send it away

[Nook Color General] quiquerc:
Just bouhgt a NC but it doesnt recognize the wifi sharing of my touch pro 2.

Do I need some third party app to connect?
[Nook Color General] lesdense:
You shouldn't. This has come up before. My Nook sees whatever wireless networks are available. Others evidently have had problems, specifically with a tethered connection from an Android phone. My suggestions are #1 - use another device (laptop, for instance) to make sure your shared wifi from your Touch Pro 2 is generally "visible" (if the network isn't visible obviously you have a different problem), #2 - if you know the exact SSID and security of the Touch Pro 2 shared wifi try manually creating a new network connection on the Nook with those settings.
[Nook Color General] barbo:
I have a Tilt2 which is AT&T's . I use WMWiFiRouter on the tilt2 and it creates an adhoc wireless connection. the Nook Color doesn't see adhoc wifi unless you make a few changes.

If you google this: "xda nookcolor adhoc enable" you will get directions for the NookColor and adhoc connections.

It works very well - good luck!
[Acer Iconia A500] calicene:
Just got my a500 and love it. I like being able to view flash sites and my wife watches streaming videos a lot. She is able to watch ABC.com but not nbc.com videos. Her coworker got the transformer and was able to play nbc.com videos on his stock browser. Wondering why it doesn't work on iconia. I've tried all other browsers, ie dolphine, skyfire, opera, but no luck.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] atomicwedgie:
No luck here either.
[Acer Iconia A500] calicene:
Alright, thanks. Hope someone figures it out. I wouldn't mind it so much if Asus Transformer weren't able to view it as well.
[Acer Iconia A500] playaed:
cant get it to work either but I use an app called "TV shows stream" and it lets me watch all the TV shows/series I want. Works well on iconia.
[Acer Iconia A500] GadjetGirl59:
Yes it does, I watch TV shows with this app all the time.
[Acer Iconia A500] m914b:
I'm streaming the office right now... try after updating to flash 10.3
[Acer Iconia A500] calicene:
Are you talking about the paid version? Cuz the lite version doesn't have the shows. Also it would be nice to figure out how to get the nbc.com to work.
[Acer Iconia A500] babyboy8100:
soon as I received my Acer iconia A500 I rooted it and went on the browser and tried the old trick. you know about:debug then it gave me the debug option once inside there I change the uaString to desktop just in case to avoid being redirected to a mobile site.

I went to nbc and I was able to play the office but it was kinda choppy and when I tried to long press full screen the screen just turn black.
[Acer Iconia A500] merlhagstrom:
I have the same problem!
[Acer Iconia A500] merlhagstrom:
I am on the phone with acer, do not by an acer the support makes dells look like the best ever. These people suck, and want to charge me to show me how to get the iconia to work on nbc.com/the office and yahoo news videos. I am taking it back!

Hello,

A couple of months ago my friend installed Android on my HD2 to run natively and it has been running sweet. However just a week back i noticed that apps are not installing properly anymore and the updates from the marketplace keep on failing. i am not sure what to do, please help?

regards,

yas
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Loo Sze Yung:
I guess you probably gonna update your ROM. Did you update it ever since you installed NAND Android? In addition, some version of ROM are known to have problem with the Android market.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] yasm:
Hi thanks for replying.

Its not just the android market that isn't working. No apps seem to install & my pc does not detect the phone when connected with a usb wire to synch with my pc. It does however still detect the memory card for file transfers.

A real head scratcher this, I'm afraid of losing all my contacts if I restore the original NAND.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] UnMonk:
I am a xoom owner since launch and am very very pleased with it. I have not done the 3.1 update yet, because I still have to re-do all my themeing for the update.

I am thinking about returning the xoom for the GT10.1

I see mixed information on the galaxy tab everywhere I go. I know it has a proprietary USB port.

My questions are:

1. Will it have an SD Card slot? I love using the SD Slot on my xoom.

2. Will it have USB Host? This is a HUGE + for the xoom, I am hoping the GTab has one.

3. What hardware ports and buttons are on it

4. How much heat is generated under very heavy load? I know the xoom heats up at the bottom right, where is the heat on the GTAB?

5. How does it feel in your hands compared to a xoom? (IO Owners)

6. How is the build quality compared to a xoom? (IO Owners)

7. Can Touchwiz be removed?

Anything I should know about making a switch from a xoom to a gtab?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Chandelure:
1.) Not sure but the 8.9 will (http://www.samsungmobilepress.com/press/view.asp?SEQ=36)

2.) I'm sure it will at some point, just probably not at launch.

3.) Not sure. The I/O tab may be different than the final unit.

4.) I has no clue

7.) Ya it'll be easy.

And I think you should :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
1. 10.1 Yes - 10.1v No

2. Probably not at lunch - since no one has retail model it is hard to confirm

3. Power, volume - can't remember about hearing of anything else.

4. No one knows - bear in mind that retail GT10.1 might be based on quite different platform than Xoom, hence it is impossible to say until stuff is confirmed 100%. So far we are only guessing what will be the heart of 10.1.

5. I am not one of THEM ;-)

6. As above

7. I would say yes, but I doubt you will want to ;-)

Exynos = no need to convert any movies + access to Samsung's HUB (music, video, etc). + superior performance when comapred to Tegra II (if we will get Exynos inside).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] enisoc:
I can't speak for the real 10.1 that gets released next month, but based on the I/O model:

From my limited experience with the Xoom (just playing with it in a store), I think the build quality is about the same. Both feel very sturdy to me. It is definitely noticeably lighter and thinner than the Xoom. In this regard, it is essentially the same as the iPad 2, except widescreen.

The only ports/buttons are:

power

volume up/down

headphone jack

speaker holes (one on each side when holding in landscape; nice stereo sound effect)

microphone (on bottom when holding in landscape)

proprietary data/charging port

front-facing camera (on top when holding in landscape)

rear camera and flash (also on top when in landscape)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aygriffith:
I had a XOOM for a few weeks and returned it. I find that the screen quality of the GT-P7510 we were given at I/O is far better than the XOOM which i found to be too dim even at the highest brightness. I don't think I've taken the brightness on my GT-P7510 above 40 percent and it looks great.

It feels much better in my hands than the XOOM did as far as quality of materials. I would caution that the GT10 seems to be designed not as a device that will appeal to the XDA geeks of the world but to the iPad users out there. Its far more consumer oriented than the XOOM.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
Would you care to explain in more details why do you feel this way?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aygriffith:
The lack of connections like HDMI, USB, Micro-USB. The propretary Samsung connector. The lack of additional storage options like an SD card. The sacrifice of a 8mp camera on the thicker model for the 3mp on the GT-P7510 so it can be .2mm thinner than an iPad2.

But if you put this next to an Ipad it looks like a viable option visually. People have asked if it was a Ipad2 when I'm in public with it. No one ever confused my XOOM with an Apple product. Geeks will buy a Asus Transformer or maybe even a XOOM based on each of them having what I listed above. But your average consumer might actually see a GT10 on the shelf and buy it based on how aesthetically pleasing it is. And frankly thats Samsung's target market with this and most of its devices.

Its a great device but its so damn buggy right now I cant wait for the consumer realease because im hoping for a software update that will give the device a more polished experence. My SGT 7in is much easier to use at the moment.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
There is an SD card and if my guts tells me right a kick ass cpu when compared to tegra ;-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aygriffith:
We'll see about the production models, but the WiFi 32gb I'm typing this on right now absolutely does not have an SD card slot. I think they've established that this is a Tegra2 device too. Even Nvidia Tweeted about it being one when they gave it at Google I/O last week.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
Yes, 100%. But it also says 10.1v while boot. Is it not? :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] enisoc:
It doesn't say 10.1v anywhere that I've seen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
I am pretty sure I saw somewhere boot up of thin 10.1 but screen was displaying 10.1v :-)

I thought it was 10.1 I/O - my mistake, sorry.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jocelyn:
I saw this in some of the I/O tab videos as well...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] enisoc:
Do you remember how to find one that has the v? That would be really weird if some of them say it and some don't.

Here's mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gR7M9MAHh9o
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
Found it - it was not on youtube and this is the reason I could not find it.Watch the video in article:

You're welcome ;-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] enisoc:
Thanks for finding that. I think I see what happened now. The article you linked is from Monday, the day before the I/O edition tablets were given out. The author is reviewing a demo model (notice the plain white back, no android army) that was displayed for people to come and check out. The ones that were given out on Tuesday have different software on them.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] galtom:
I see the difference - thanks (given ;-) for clearing up the fact!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] yay pie:
I have an I/O model. I haven't held a Xoom before but I can speak in some general terms that it feels really light and mobile. I have an iPad 1 and if I hold it for a while it feels like it's weighing down on my hands. I haven't felt this way with the Tab. I could totally also see someone picking it up and saying it feels cheap and plasticky, though.

Build quality wise, I did notice the plastic back had been bowing away from the glass on the corners of the screen. Nothing too big, just that you could see a millimeter or so of the edge of the glass when it was supposed to be flush with the edge of the plastic housing. With the plastic bowing back, it made the whole thing look almost warped I first unboxed it, but I pushed things back together and it's stayed put thus far. This may be an issue with the fancy android-printed plastic back though on the I/O model and nobody will see this on the general release model, I don't know.

On the 10.1 I don't see any Touchwiz and the only Samsung "value-add" I see are some dumb apps and widgets they've added in that don't work all that well. If their 3.1 OTA comes with full-on Touchwiz I will be disappointed.

Honestly I'd have some reservations about telling someone to go run out and buy one of these based on the model I have.

I've been seeing some bugs and glitches that are a little annoying. In the 4 days I've had this, I've had it hard-lock on me on the lock screen, and I've been seeing issues where Gmail and the web apps will go unresponsive. I also set the time zone to Pacific time when I unboxed it at I/O and now apparently there's a bug that keeps you from being able to change time zone without a hard reset. Part of me is worried this stuff might land on the production build.

I still like it a lot more than my iPad though.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandro1d:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
It does have a stock player. It is called "Music."
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] styckx:
Yep and it is actually a darn decent player too. Still using poweramp since I paid for it and has an eq but the default music player imo is easier to navigate while on the run.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandro1d:
Ok so I looked through my apps and I have one called music but I'm pretty sure thats the google music beta app I downloaded. The Icon is an orange set of Headphones. My Epic 4G had a music player that had an equalizer which I loved!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mntbkr:
Remember the Nexus is vanilla android, the galaxy is castrated by Samsung and touchwiz.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
Nope. That's the updated music app.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [hfm]:
There are good free eq apps in the market that add a menu option to music apps using 2.3+. I like flat with my klipsch s4, but it helps greatly for my cold shure ec2. I use "equalizer" from smart android apps.

Look for the eq in the sound effects menu option. That menu option is only available on the playback view, not in any of the library views.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fraspas:
Winamp is a pretty decent music app for the Android as well. I use that rather than Google's stock music player.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeyinid:
Which rom are you using? I put the new google music player in becuase the market will keep telling you you have an update. TBH, I like the new one better anyway. If you want the aosp out-of-box player, I can give it to you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandro1d:
I'm currently using this rom:

I think you should reflash with Eclair rom first, and then the Froyo rom later. If it does not work try another rom
[Galaxy 3 General] badpinguin:
Thank you dkido, I've think this, but I'm not think that this is the problem.

I'll try your solution.

You know some web site where I can Download Android Eclair 2.1 ?
[Galaxy 3 General] dkido:
You could search in the forum or download from

[Galaxy 3 General] badpinguin:
I was checked your suggest page, but I'm not match my exactly model Eclair 2.1 firmware.

this is a page:

I try to search anyware by google, but without success.

someone know if Samsung Galaxy mini GT-I5800 has an special keys to formatting

flash memory without call Android System Recovery ? or for doing all other things?

because I think that the problem is inside at the phone, because the flashing porcedure is always finish with success, and I think that there is somethink that is not erasing on flashing

process.
[Galaxy 3 General] dkido:
There are a lot of rom in samfirmware.com you need to register an account to download them :D.

Dont worry.

I'm not worry, but I won't send my phone to samsung tecnical support.

anyway very kind of you.

[Galaxy 3 General] dkido:
yeah, I have no idea about mini GT-I5800 version!!

I suggest you to use the Kyrillos' ROM v5.0 RC this rom is amazing. You could try these step to flash the rom

+ Flash I5800XXJK1 or I5801DXJG5 Eclair Rom first (I think other Eclair version works fine). If you care about the logo just remove Logo.png, boot.bin, sbl.bin (Total commander or 7z)

+ Make sure your phone will work as normal after flash done and booted. backup your IMEI if you want

+ If you don't want to use Kyrillos' ROM. Just continues flash to next Froyo that you want. Note: You could do wipe cache before flash to Froyo but notice, if the rom is not support wipe cache, your phone will stuck in boot screen and you need to repeat All reflash once again and do not try wipe cache again.

+ Kyrillos' ROM: Backup your SD Card before flash

Flash with the Rom, when finish you will be in Recovery Mode like this

+ This step will partition your SD card, and its data will completely clean. But it is a must if you don't want to manual partition your sd card.

Go to Advanced>Partition SD Card and you will know what to do, the first partition is ext3 and the seconds is swap-partition (1000M/256M is fine?).

+ All the left thing is wipe cache, clear, format everything. Finally, return to main menu and reboot :D.

+ Ready for wait :eek:, about 2 minutes to hear the boot sound and you will see the bootanimation, and more about 10+ minutes your phone will completely boot.

Congratulation and welcome to the new Android world

P/S: Another ways if you fail in second try

+ Flash I5800XXJK1 > I5800XWJPF > Kyrillos' ROM

+ or I5801DXJG5 > I5801DDJP2 > Kyrillos' ROM
