Still shows up as fifty bucks no matter what I do. if I can get it to show up as twenty I will get it.

DX 2.3.3

Edit- I tried again today and it still didn't work, but something else interesting happened. I put a car charger in my cart, then the hdmi dock. The car charger got an instant discount that zeroed out to free. The dock also got an instant discount to 23.99. This was great but it wouldn't let me complete my purchase, I actually had to call and email pix to get it done through a rep.

They may have fixed the glitch by now, good luck.

Ps	- rep also confirmed the sale on the bundle for twenty bucks was over.

yup, got mine.

I think they screwed up and intended to list it for $20 OFF the $ 99.97 list price. It's now on the site for $79.97.

Netflix require you to change the framework
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
What is "change the framework" about and what does that entail???

Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youbecha:
Just downloaded the latest version of netflix...it works

first version I had was modified to work on the nook...

then netflix did an update that broke my fix...

so I didn't use it anymore for a while...then yesterday I did an update of the app...and it started working again.

I don't know if now it works on all, or if my old mods were still in place.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jimmyjohnny:
It's easily worth several hundred dollars a year to me to be able to keep my current Sprint plan instead of upgrading, and so I'm trying to find someone who does hardware upgrades (CPU, RAM) for smartphones.

This could be worth a significant amount of money to a good number of users with legacy Sprint plans who have a ceiling imposed for the quality of smartphone they can buy.

Thanks to the XDAndroid project, the Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium) is a genuinely usable phone for the near future. With upgraded CPU and RAM, it'd be that much more usable for that much longer.

The TP2 is the best smartphone available to users on legacy Sprint plans. I'd definitely be willing to part with a significant amount of cash to upgrade the phone, and I'm sure others on Sprint's legacy plans would, as well.

I figure this can go one of two ways: trying to cram other hardware into the TP2, or trying to take a small amount of the TP2's hardware (the parts relevant to identifying it on Sprint's network) and Frankenstein it onto a significantly better smartphone.

Clearly this is a big job for someone with a great amount of skills. But I'd certainly pay well for it, and if need be, can try to recruit others to pay, as well.

I bought a 64gb class-10 SDXC card (Transcend) off eBay for 33 bucks. I know it's probably too good to be true, but for that price I wanted to take a risk. It's coming from China.

Is there a diagnostic tool for any platform that will quickly assess if it:

- is truly 64gb of storage (I've heard stories of how can make it just look like it is)?

- actually holds data correctly?

I know there are manual ways to test this stuff, I was just wondering if there's an sdcard tool for Windows or Linux.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] pastey:
Hi poorace,

Give H2testw v1.4 a try, it will test the entire card and give u the read and write speeds...
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] trancemode:
yes you can use h2test but why waste your time?

dealing with dispute, etc if it is a fake?

I just had to deal with a micro sd 32gb for $50 kingston and it only READ 1GB lol.

However, the seller was able to refund me on the spot when I mention it to him as he prob know it himself and it prob only cost like $5-10 for him.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] pastey:
He will probably need to test it to see if it is fake, the card itself will more than likely look the same...
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] stuntdouble:
Guaranteed to be a fake. Unless it was stolen. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
hey XDAs,

- i got my LG OS like 2-3 weeks ago. standard rom was a german vodafone branded software.

- i wanted to remove the branding and tried some custom roms....ok

- i tried to put my OS back to stock rom (in order to sell it) but i fail every time

- up to now, i put 5 roms of the "official stock rom"-thread through cwm but i get "installation aborted - bad" everytime

- then i tried to use smartflash, everything worked like in the description.

at the end i got a green message saying something like "update succesful" but NOTHING happend. i rebooted the phone and it was still the same

you got an idea of what i should do now??

only thing i think of is trying a vodafone branded german rom (like it was at the first place) but well, i got my doubts :(

alright man, gonna try this tomorrow :)

thx!

/e: i see this rom got 200 mb, while the one i tried had 8 mb oO
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
I believe this has to do with the fact that custom roms are all ext4, and stock is ext3.

Smartflash doesn't replace that automaticly. NVFlash does, so this should do the job for you.

Good luck!
[LG Optimus 2x] fajarep:
yes, agree with him, to get stock, you'll need to convert back ext4 to ext3.
[LG Optimus 2x] monkeytown:
oh, this makes sense.... :D

i´ll try it. does it make a difference if win xp or win 7?

i already tried to install the LG drivers on win xp but i got no reaction when i clicked on the .exe files and he couldn´t fnd any "working" drivers in these folder either to install the APX-device....

but i´ll give nvflash a shot this afternoon

thx
[LG Optimus 2x] hellokittyr:
if you wanna restore from custom rom back to stock.

you have to apply the ext patch.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daysonp:
Hi

My side volume keys were flimsy and loose. For the past few weeks I had to press it hard for it respond. The other day I was out and when I took the phone out of my pocket, I realized the volume keys were missing. They fell off somewhere and I have no clue where, so I can't find them. But I definitely know that it didn't happen due to any rough use. There are absolutely no scratches or marks on the phone.

It's really annoying as there is no quick way for me to control volume or put the phone to vibrate mode. Plus I can't flip pages in book readers easily.

Questions

What are my options? Are there any applications I can use to quickly control volume and put the phone to 'Vibrate' mode?

Is this covered under warranty?

The service center says if it's not covered under warranty, I'll have to buy the entire back panel which is going to cost a lot! Is there any online place I can buy 'just' the volume key which can be fixed in?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scorpio50:
Mine also broke but i made it work with a drop of appoxy glue.. but be care full it can bind ur button permanently
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daysonp:
I would. But unfortunately, I have *lost* the button as I don't know where it dropped off. Any chance I can get just the button for cheap?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micflair:
Nothing on ebay mate? Deal Extreme sell a lot of spare parts for phones, have a look on there. I cant see it costing that much to repair at a service center? If its just the back panel then its nothing but a few pieces of plastic..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daysonp:
Well, it's not plastic, it's metal. And the back panel costs at least 10% of the cost of the phone back here.

[HTC Inspire 4G] ZeroRilix:
Our Inspires have 4GB of internal storage from the factory. With all ATT's bloatware, internal storage out of the box is 1.1 GB. You can check how much remaining under settings-sd and phone storage, and its listed right at the bottom. I have installed over 170 apps on my stock Inspire and still have 720MB still remaining in internal storage. Hope that answers your question.

[Droid Pro General] re960088:
Hello all,

I have bought a droid on ebay, which was factory unlocked.

popped in my simcard and it worked flawlesly in Belgium. no additional tweaking.

in order to improve battery life I used anttek app manager to freeze some stuff. I suddenly had issues with exchange. I tried to uninstall and install again, but calendar en contacts are partially missing. Mails working fine.

I finally decided to factorty reset. I now see that the programmes which aI froze dissapeared (some however are still there).

Can somebody confirm that flashing the SBF should not impact my unlocked status?

Or provide me with a solution to mannualy reset to factory state without losing unlocked status

Many thx
[T-Mobile LG G2x] againareku:
So, I have had my G2X for more than 2 weeks. And to be honest, I've never been happier with an Android phone. And I'm sure lots of you hate me for this, but I have no reboots and minimal screen bleed.

I do have problems with the phone.

Call list is ridiculously crippled. My ages old Nokia 6263 flip phone has a call log that splits up MISSSED, RECEIVED, OUTGOING, and ALL, it also calculates times and dates for EACH call, plus logs total times called

The G2X's call log is a list with phone numbers, horribly inaccurate times [such as "1 hour ago" when it was actually more than 1 hour 45 minutes ago\ and NO SPLITTING UP, the only way to tell what is missed or outgoing is by the icons next to the call, but no way to filter through [for someone in business, this is a must when I'm calling many different numbers through the day]

Then there's the little things I miss from my Defy

Battery Manager, considering how quickly the G2X can run through batteries, why no battery manager? The Defy had custom battery profiles and three very well thought out preset profiles, all usable at one point. Performance mode made everything go full blast, data, screen brightness, etc. Battery Saver made screen brightness 0, turned off autosync, and got you on 2g. Smart Mode was like performance mode, but went into saver mode if you weren't using the phone.

The buttons next to the app drawer: It make no sense to me for the buttons next to the app drawer button to be call and browser. On my old Defy, the buttons were CALL and CONTACTS, and they were nice big buttons that stood out. Having browser next to app drawer button makes no sense when you can access browser from either app drawer itself or a small widget on my screen.

The alarm application, RIDICULOUS! It can't use my music as an alarm, only the default alarms. Why in the world? I have to make an mp3 into a ringtone from ringdroid for it to work. Is this an issue with file locations and the memory cards? or is the alarm clock guilty of this one fatal flaw?

Well, what do you guys think? Some of you have brought up valid issues, such as the way the phone handles the internal storage and external storage and how much it complicates pathnames and default settings. then there's also the way wi fi calling can drop in the middle of a call for no reason.

Last but not least, I hate how this is the first phone where it's hard to get excited about any new phones. It's so above and beyond everything else on the market that what can really get my heart racing? The phone still isn't even on Gingerbread, the Tegra zone is barely getting started, and the modding community is just heating up. Honestly, what's out there? I think for once, anyone who upgraded or added a line for this phone definitely gets their 2 years worth out of it.

Don't get me wrong, this is one amazing phone. I love it to death..but there's some things that are just wrong and I hope the firmware updates addresses.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
download an alarm, phone log app, and juicedefender from the market. launcher buttons can be changed also. problem solved.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] againareku:
Stock launcher buttons can be changed? I wasn't aware of that, if you know how please let me know!

I realize lots of these issues can be fixed by apps, but I have to admit, it impresses me when a phone straight out the box is usable. The G2X is quite possibly almost that kind of phone, it's a beautiful stock like user interface and some of LG's takes on things are impressive
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Grantisimo:
If you get handcent, you can use it's sound picker to use any file for an alarm.

From your other complaints, it sounds like you've not used a vanilla android before. Most of those things are either features or things to get used to. The functions you want can be found on the market.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aim1126:
Just download adw or launcher pro. They are way better than the stock launcher and can be customized just they way you want them. All of your problems can be easily solved by looking for apps on the market. Also eventhough we don't have official gingerbread, we already have a pretty stable cm7 build (at least it has been for me).

The only thing I would say I'm missing is Netflix support. But even that can be fixed by mods
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr.orange303:
And battstatt if you dont mod and have a battery meter.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
I have to say that there is no reason at all that there is no default built in solution for battery management and or task management. LG or T-Mobile should have a solution for everyone, why give off such a critical feature to a slew of 3rd party apps.

All Thinkpads have a battery manager that manages how the laptop is charged, varies the charging and when it kicks in (ie start charging ONLY if under 85%) And has a battery reset that charges, drains, and charges, and resets the meter, all while plugged in.

No excuse for the phone builders to not manage that hardware...which the battery is a huge chunk of.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
It's wasted effort on their part. For every ONE person who would use that resource, 20 more would go to the app market and download an app that does exactly what they want. That's the beauty of Android, iOS, and other app based OSes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Just get an iPhone, stop crying!!

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] againareku:
I would stop crying..

but my POS motorolas have these features and they're $379 and $249 phones

There's no excuse a high end premium handset shouldn't have these features. It has bloatware, but not a battery manager or alarm or proper call log? Not to mention subpar music and gallery apps.

Now, why, Motorola, with such horrible R&D and short coding staff can do it, but LG witha $600 MSRP can't?

The camera app on the G2X is proof LG can do things right and absolutely better than anyone. The rest of the basic functions should be at the same level.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
I guess the beauty of android is that you can add/remove/freeze/ anything you want, yes its a pain sometimes, but hey at least its not iPhone...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Serious_Beans:
Sorry to say, but this is a really stupid rant. Everything can be changed with a custom rom, or something from the market. Learn something before ranting about nothing. Also you're basically complaining about stock android...this is so stupid.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I use "AContact" for my contact list, call log and dialer. It is miles ahead of the stock Android contact list/call log. Best of yet, it's free to. A lot of things aren't included with Android because they know there are tons of 3rd party apps that people will download according to what kind of features there looking for. For a alarm, use "Alarm Clock Plus". It looks exactly like the stock alarm only it has a lot more features such as adding a song or a playlist of songs to wake you up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] againareku:
So, where does that leave the average user? See, Android's nice, and I'm sure everyone would love for Android to become the number one OS, but if users who don't root and flash are stuck then why should they consider Android over iOS or WP7?

I have no problem rooting or flashing, I do it to a throw away phone like my old CLIQ XT running cm7

but I'd prefer to keep my 1 year warranty and extended warranty service valid for a $600 device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] se1zure31:
You really should get an android phone from motorola or htc with their blur/sense services. You obviously don't want to do the research or work yourself to find apps.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
I'm sorry, actually no I'm not, but Android was not made for the average user. You want that experience then go get an iPhone. That's not bashing the iPhone but it has its niche. It's the Everyman device. You don't want or have the time to customize? Android isn't for you. This was a senseless rant and a part of me just has to wonder if you're a troll, especially if you're on a site as technically as XDA and are complaining about customization.

The wonders of Android are that if you don't like something, you can change it. That's why I've owned Android since its inception and I'll own it until it fades out of existence.

Last bit, rooting has nothing to do with changing the features you're wanting. There are easily found applications that remedy every problem you mentioned.

I don't usually rip into other users but this post just irked me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Maris_:
Average user here ... I haven't rooted my phone, but certainly don't feel "stuck." I considered Android over IOS or WP7 because it offered me far more choices. For one, the contact list that bothers you so much is sufficient for me. What you consider obvious misses are clean, streamlined choices to me. I chose Android because I knew if there was something I didn't like (such as a contact list, alarm clock, etc.) there were hundreds of other options just a quick download away. I find it fun to try out different apps to find the one that absolutely fits my needs, and I always do.

The best thing you can do to help change your attitude is to personalize your phone, with just a little research, and maybe start with a new Launcher. I use LauncherPro and love how I can put any icon anywhere I want on its dock bar, in any order, and then also be able to use a swipe up gesture to get even more. So, on my phone icon, I use a swipe gesture to view my contacts so I have two useful features in one spot. Saves space and time.

I think once you adjust to having the ability to make choices for what you want where on your phone, you will truly see the beauty of Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bdkinney:
You Mr. Average User do not have to root or flash to change anything you want changed. You chose a vanilla Android device...the flavor comes from adding your own toppings. If you want something pre-customized to someone else's tastes you should get an HTC device (Sense) , or gasp...a Motorola (Blur). Or maybe even a WP7 or retch...an IPhone. Point is you have choices. You wouldn't make yourself a big bowl of vanilla ice cream at the desert bar and the complain that you have to add your own toppings...that would just be...stupid. Just sayin'.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I agree the dialer is basic. It doesn't dial by name... just like the stock alarm doesn't play MP3s. But they are stock and can all be switched out.

I like the stock alarm. Simple and reliable. For dialer I liked Dialer One. But I conditioned myself to use stock dialer. Why? Well because we have awesome Voice Search.

Hold the search button for a second and say "Dial Dominoes 45325" and bam! Ordering pizza with no Google search or lookups. Same with contacts. "Call Dad mobile". Done. "Dialer One" is a good replacement though.

Launcher Pro is a good launcher replacement with lots of slick effects and options. Also ADW EX.

This is stock android where they keep things simple. Almost like they want you to explore your options. Welcome to personal user experience. You aren't locked down to any one app.

I have been looking for the wallpaper on the Optimus 2X in your signature for ever. You wouldn't happen to know where I can find it, do you?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
For the average user I would recommend a device that uses it's own UI overlay on top of Android if you want a lot of bells and whistles. Vanilla Android is all about being minimalistic and fast. Check out the upcoming HTC Sensation or the Samsung Galaxy S II/Hercules. Both of them have exactly what your looking for. Or you can just download the apps I told you to download and you will get more options than you ever had on a dialer or alarm.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] peacekeeper05:
Your complains are basically for the vanilla android not the lg itself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
I agree with the others. This rant doesn't really make any sense. The things the OP is complaining about are things related to vanilla android. My question is, if you don't like vanilla android, then WHY DID YOU BUY A VANILLA ANDROID DEVICE?! Vanilla android devices are designed to be customized. It sounds to me that you want a phone with an overlay on it so that you don't have to change anything. If that's what you are looking for then vanilla android was the wrong choice. Perhaps you should look into a different phone such as the Sensation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Alpha Class:
those aren't issues with the g2x, those are issues with stock android, you might be better served with a phone that has some customized features built in, ie samsung(touchwiz), htc(sense), etc...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Serious_Beans:
You can just unroot and go back to stock and bam your 1yr warranty is back..-_- also are you talking about the average android user or average g2x user? I think the issues are mainly before a certain manufacturing date, because every G2x I've had past the 20th has been GREAT and none of the issues specified also most of the things are ANDROID software related...so to complain about the G2x is pointless...you are ranting about Android..not the G2x and then don't get an Android phone if you don't like the way it works.
