[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
ya know that's probably it. they are drm'd and in a proprietary format. they probably fear that if you had video capture on a computer you'd get around all that and dont want people ripping their movies.

the on board video player works amazing. dont use 3rd party apps, it supports mkv's and such. plus it putsout 1080p when used with mhl, the screen turns off and it switches to a highres mode and powers the mhl exclusively.

a better solution would have been watermarking the output. so that movies if ripped would have evidence of piracy in which case the user could be reported if they distribute it.

i wonder it that's what the update is about. maybe if we spoof the build.prop it wont force the update and then who knows? that might kill it altogether though and other version might only mirror, not use hi res. maybe there is a way to squash the update, an apk that can be frozen or something?

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] The Jones:
I am a Google Apps user with my own domain. The Gmail app on the Flyer is just the standard one and is not really making good use of the screen real estate.

So, I configures the HTC Mail app to connect to my account using Exchange ActiveSync and set it to push mail. I have noticed 2 annoying issues. Firstly, I often get told that there has been an authentication error with an icon in the top bar. Eventually, I can manually get it to sync with my gmail and that goes away for a while.

Secondly, the Mail app is using loads of battery. Looking in the battery stats, I noticed that it used 12% of battery and in the last 3 hours or so, it kept the phone awake for almost an hour and a half! Overall, the Flyer lost 10% of its battery in 3 hours without being touched. Not very good. I have changed push mail to sync every 10 minutes, but it is not really what I wanted.

Can anyone help here or offer any advise?

Thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OnkelAlbert:
I am using gmail only as a secondary adress with manual update, Exchange is my primary application and on push all day long. I have no issues with battery life whatsoever, so either it is a problem linked to gmail or it some other app causing the problem.

Very, very happy with the battery life up to now! You shouldn't expect any comparison to Xoom or iPad, but as I wrote taking games and videos out of consideration and using it as a business device with eMail push, web,... I can't imagine someone would manage to get out of battery during a day...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] The Jones:
Thanks for this info. Out of interest, who is your exchange account with? A corporate account? I do wonder if it is a Google issue. I am trying it out with the same settings on my phone to see what happens.

Are we the only 2 on here with the Flyer?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iOStoAndroid:
I had a O2 branded and (? locked) Galaxy S2, which I immediately debranded, updated to the latest firmware and rooted.

I have use titanium backup to freeze a few bloatware.

Today, I received my unlock code from O2. So I insert my 3 SIM and it works without needing to use the code. I don't know how it happened and I'm pretty sure I was not able to register on 3 when I first tried it when I had just received the phone.

Hi

I have a habit of always reebooting my phone after I install a app from market.

Is this nessesary?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveBG:
Never did that and is never needed. I have installed 50-100 apps at once with no reboot and everything is fine.

If there is reboot needed you would get a message and there is never such need.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel_veld:
Thankfully I have the new 10.1 tab as my 7" is not looking good here is what happened:

Kies wanted to update firmware on 7" so I let it

Tab got stuck on samsung screen in a loop

I attempted to load an older firmware from the net for Australian tab

I ended up stuffing around with it and know the tab won't do a thing visiualy just stays black

I can see on the PC and can connect when I run Odin it shows but cannot connect

Droid explore can see but there are no files visible

I ended up going to sdk tools and using adb I was able to get into recovery still black screen on the tab however when I run screen capture from sdk tools I can see the recovery options and the up down control works however the home key will not

I managed to get Odin to run the firmware by geting adb to reboot with bootloader option which caused tablet to make sound and when I held the power I was able to get Odin to flash still no luck even though it loads the firmware OK

I think the rom is corrupt and the problem and cannot find one for me in au, I am on Optus and would prefer to load with some ones back up of Optus rom and firmware if some one can help out.

Do any one here have any suggestions?

Worst case I take it back to samsung

I think if I had the rom I could upgrade in droid explorer or could push with adb than upgrade with Odin which I hope will solve the problem, any thoughts?

Also in case you were wondering the galaxy tab 10.1v is so much better than the first one everything is super smooth snappy and just works apart from some apps not been setup for the tab everything is so much better.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SemTechie:
that is the question. I've been using my 32 GB Transformer since it arrived on May 12, and I have to say that overall I'm a huge fan. Since I have seen so much on these boards about the various QC issues, I gave my tablet the once-over almost immediately. The speakers seem fine, no SoD, etc. The only defects I found were about 4 points of light along the left and bottom of the tablet when held in landscape. These show up at about 80-100% brightness with a dark background (not a black jpg), and are not terribly invasive. However, as I use the tablet more, it is a bit annoying just to know they're there. I've also experienced a bit of screen flicker (only with Angry Birds so far), but suspect that this may be more of a software/rendering issue. So the question I have to ask myself is "Do I send it back?" I've heard a number of stories on these boards and elsewhere of people who RMA'ed, waited, and got back a poorer product than they started with. I can live with a little light bleed, but I'm not sure I want to. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

--SemTechie
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icerave:
I'm kind of in the same boat. I've got a single hot pixel and obvious light bleed that is mainly noticable with black/dark backgrounds. If I send it back to the retailer I could end up waiting a month or MORE for a replacement that may have the same or worse issues. And then what happens? Would the retailer take it back and keep this back-and-forth game up till I recieved a tablet that has no isses? I doubt it. I'm thinking that maybe I should call Asus and see what they have to say about the backlight bleed on the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunes:
No matter what you do you will be taken care of, if you RMA it now or in 6 months from now. Asus has great warranty support. They even pay for the shipping away to them for RMA. Most companies make you eat that cost.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_gunner:
Seems like the QC issues are widespread throughout the TF supply, which means the manufacturing process is flawed / needs correction. So, RMA'ing now might not yield good results. Might be better to wait a couple months to RMA, assuming that ASUS would actually address and correct the QC issues.

I've noticed some light bleed in a couple spots when cranking up the brightness, but since I don't usually have the brightness over 50% and I don't tend to stare at black backgrounds I'm just brushing it off....for now. When I read that customers are getting TF's RMA'd w/ new TF's w/out any issues, then I'll consider RMA'ing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spuniun:
I am also waiting to RMA.

My HDMI port is really unreliable and the connection will be detected and dropped constantly if you touch it at all. If you jiggle it just the right way it will immediately put the tab into a SOD. I've already called ASUS to get the issue on record but I told them I'm waiting to RMA until after I've heard of other's successfully repair experiences.

I only have very minor light bleed and a tiny creak in the top left of the chassis, both a non-issues but the HDMI port sucking really bothers me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
Light bleed is pretty common to bigger ips displays. Do a search for iPad light bleed and you will see what I mean.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itaintrite:
This is exactly the problem. People go looking for trouble, and trouble is what they'll find.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxp3:
I'm having same issue. At first I didnt' want to think of it and didn't try to look for it. But whenever I start some apps and the screen is dark. I can see som light bleed on the side and one very annoying one in the middle of the screen about an inch long. I can live with the sides...but in the middle of the screen is pretty hard to accept.
[XPERIA X10 General] streamnlnl:
The case.....

I want a extra option on the tread with the ability to agree with some one.

I read the most post, on my phone with the XDA app.

And i find it hard to read stuff that is relevant for me to read.

Imagine how hard it must be for a dev to find relevant post........

There are a large number of users who post "+1, +100000, +1!!!!!" replies with no bearing on the thread. I'm thought of adding an "Agree" button would alleviate that.

That you could see that also (like the thanks button).

Something like this: The following (numbers) user are agree with this post.

I hope that it will help.

My hope with this poll is to see how many people wanted this.

So the question is:

Do you think this is a good idea (the agree button) to put this on the site?

Thanks in advance

PS if you don't think this is a good idea, please let me know why....
[XPERIA X10 General] realunited123:
+1 :p

It would surely help avoid the threads getting messy. Also it would be great without a "5 agree" limit like the "5 thanks" limit a day.
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
I agree to this post as right now i'm using the "thanks" button for that unless i have further on topic info.
[XPERIA X10 General] Crowds:
definitely a valid option ;) let´s hope mods see that. already voted
[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
u can have agree/disagree (though this can lead to trolls/spammers screwing up credibility of the post)

i think this is a valid concern and we should have an "Agree" button...
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Yeah.. "disagree" will just make more trolling.
[XPERIA X10 General] coolsid8:
Nice idea ...
[XPERIA X10 General] DooMLoRD:
why not have a similar thread in MAIN Android General section... why limit it to Xperia X10 subforum?

If there was an "Agree" button, I'd push it right now and I wouldn't be making this post. :D

xda forums really need to limit non-contributing posts. Almost every single thread here is a total mess. :(
[XPERIA X10 General] svtfmook:
sure, now if someone wants to contact vbulletin and have them rewrite their software, then redistribute it, then xda could implement it.

Good idea OP.
[XPERIA X10 General] ballubas:
Great idea!
[XPERIA X10 General] streamnlnl:
Thanks you for the kind words and the vote's.

What I don't get, is that 290 people have seen this tread and only 18 have taking the time to vote.

My thanks for them.

I know the poll isn't showing on the XDA app. But in that case please reply to the tread.

So i have something to show to the mods/admin.

Again, I really believe that this could work and make XDA better.

This should have been in the Xda general forum, ill move it later

He made one there and linked to this post :)
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
I agree guys :)!
[XPERIA X10 General] acmbc:
This is something like the like/dislike on facebook, linkedin and whatnot.

It would possibly require some recoding on vBulletin. Don't see that it would be "too hard" (and I may be completely wrong), but take a minute to ponder what the utility of "n" agrees/don't agree on post in threads with liek 5000 posts.

What about putting in an agree/don't agree or like/dislike PER THREAD -

Another possibility would be to replicate the "thanks" funcionality for "agrees" - the functionality is already there (Each post already mentions users which have thanked another FOR A GIVEN post) just a new "agree" variable/counter and use pretty much existing code.

Then again I may be off my rocker. Haven't touched PHP in several years, nor vBulletin. FYI there are some threads on this/similar functionality in the vBulletin forum: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=241011&highlight=like/dislike
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Only a Like/Agree would be okay. We don't want negative things here ;) You should also know that XDA runs on vB3 and not vB4.
[XPERIA X10 General] acmbc:
Like I said, i may be completely off my rocker....
[XPERIA X10 General] ImS0Raw:
Just telling buddy ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
May I add another relevant suggestion?

Maybe the number of Thanks allowed per day should be increased.

5 is not enough when so many people are helping and contributing! :)
[XPERIA X10 General] streamnlnl:
This is something what are mention before (not by me ;))to the mods.

You can read all of our request here : (requests) From the Users to the Mods & Admins

So their know of it. Hope their will make this in the next update.

again, thank you all for your support!!!!

How about a button for STOP SPAMMING or MOVE TO Q&A OR MOVE TO GENERAL.. Just throwing some ideas.
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
I have those buttons! :p

And I think the +1/-1 for the posts is in trial in Nexus forums,

if it goes smoothly, it should be everywhere soon.

But don't take my word for it, I have no involvement in such things whatsoever.

:)
[XPERIA X10 General] Mugsyfied:
The "thanks, quote, multi quote, quick reply" buttons have always felt a tad restrictive.

Not a huge deal but it would simplify things if I didn't have to pick it everytime I wanted to save a doc.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrimu:
I'm also interested in this topic. anyone knows a possibility, polaris office to link with dropbox? apparently it only works with box.net. someone has a tip?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
Unless you want to screw with smb/nfs mounting a PC or Mac's Dropbox, AFAIK you will have to save the file locally then add it via the Dropbox app or launch PO through DB. I don't think saving to e.g. /mnt/sdcard/dropbox/ will work but I have never tried it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunswick:
You need to use something like Titanium sync:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.MediaSync&feature=search_result

It will automatically upload a file(s) in folders you set to Dropbox (1-way sync).

If you want to edit the file, open it on the TF, edit and save onto the TF. The sync app will detect the change and immediately upload and overwrite the previous version on Dropbox (unless you save it as a different filename obviously).

If you set the Dropbox folder to be uploaded by the sync app, that might give you quite close to a 2-way sync even if it is a bit inefficient (i.e. if you download a file from DB to TF, then the sync app will upload it again but it will be the same file so its not the end of the world) then you can edit and backup to DB.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simmos:
Hi, I am putting forward to you all a request for devs to help develop an app which I think would be very helpful for me and many others. I have no coding experience, I am willing to learn but I would much rather stick to my skillset being graphics and design.

The app will be very simple. Press to check in and press to check out. It will be used for recording hours at work. When I arrive, I press the check in button, when I leave, I press check out. I can then, possibly, enter a small note.. and then easily check my hours in a table on another panorama for the week - and of course proceed to fill out my timesheet!

Devs! Help get this app together! I will happily do whatever needs to be done on my side, but when it comes to coding I would not know where to start.

I will mock up a template shortly.

Thanks in advance!

"LG Aus irons bugs out of Optimus 2X

World's first dual-core phone on sale downunder.

LG Australia has finally broken its silence over ongoing problems with the Optimus 2X, which Guiness World Records acknowledges as the world’s first dual-core smart phone.

Users overseas and locally who had bought the product through eBay and other online sources reported a number of issues with the phone including random power-offs.

The Korean company subsequently released a patch, however, many users continued to report malfunctions.

LG Australia marketing director Brad Read confirmed that the problems related to the incompatibility of the phone's software – developed with Google’s Android 2.2 Froyo – and the handset's dual core processor.

For several weeks LG Australia’s Facebook page has been peppered with customer complaints, however, LG only acknowledged the problem on the social networking site yesterday.

One reader said he was selling his Optimus 2X for $1 on eBay as a paperweight.

Read, however, said that all of the problems had now been ironed out.

An updated software fix had been installed in phones shipped to Australia with no customers buying locally expected to have any problems.

The Optimus 2X goes on sale this week at Harvey Norman and was expected to soon become available through other outlets including mobile carriers.

Its price tag in Australia would be around $650.

Notwithstanding the software compatibility issues, the Optimus 2X was expected to generate much kudos for LG in the highly competitive mobile phone market, and woo users with its promise of dramatically faster management of mobile apps and downloading of web content."
