[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetfann:
You would've gotten an iPad even though you would lose Flash capability, SD card, keyboard dock w/added battery life and USB ports, etc?

I just can't see the iPad as a viable alternative to the TF. They are for two different types of people, IMO.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
They can tell you whatever they like, but that does not affect your statutory rights under the sale of goods act.

Personally, if I'd had an issue with my TF (I didn't) within a month of purchase, it would've gone straight back to Comet for replacement or refund, not repair. Usually, the very mention of the phrases "Sales of Goods Act", and "Statutory Rights" is sufficient to get results.

Dave
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fulko:
I'm using CM7 off of an SD card, and I thought I'd load the B&N reader app and consider buying a book to read. Since CM7 doesn't provide the app, I went to the AppBrain market and it shows me a "Nook for Android by B&N", and then the procedure is to click the 'market' button to try to download it, but it says 'the requested item could not be found'. If I search for it on the CM7 provided 'market', the app doesn't exist.

How do I get this app?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolenmoment:
I installed it by searching for "nook" in the Market app. No muss, no fuss. Now, I did that before the recent update, but it certainly shows as installed when I search now.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brucemcl:
First, instead of appbrain, try going to market.android.com. That's the official web based market run by Google.

Second, the Nook app was in the Market app on CM7.0.3 on my NC. I installed it with no problems. The app also shows up in the Market app on my Nexus One running CM7.0.3. You might want to try clearing the data on your Market.app, or some other remedies to get it working as it should.

Third - "Since CM7 doesn't provide the app..." I don't know why they would provide the app. It's not what they do.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fulko:
Up until now I have always used the appbrain app or the market app in the NC. I did once look at the web interface, but since I thought the intent was to 'use the device to manage the device', I never paid too much attention to their corresponding web sites; however, I did once look at the appbrain web site.

Thanks, but a 'it works for me', doesn't help me any. :(

But your comment above about the web site, did give me a though of something to try.

Although the NC kept telling me the 'app could not be found', the market.android.com web site said something different. It said 'This item cannot be installed in your device's country'.

Considering B&N will sell books in the US and Canada, I am surprised that the app can't be installed in Canada. Maybe somebody, somewhere didn't get the memo about Canada being a friendly country! But at least that explains it, even though the other apps didn't give me a useful clue/explanation. Now the question is how to get around it. B&N were more than happy to accept my credit card # in their original app on the stock NC. But that was B&N, and this may be a Google/Android restriction, who knows?

I didn't mean any slight to the CM7 project or team... it was just the observation part of my sentence.

On the other hand, CM7 does come with phone, camera and other apps, that I can't use, and I can't (obviously/easily) uninstall.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nburnes:
I was going to mention, Nook app doesn't seem to like other countries other than US.

Here is the app ripped right from my device. http://www.mediafire.com/?ysjyohkj4onm1az

Edit: Forgot to mention, install via adb or move onto your SD and install through a file manager.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garoto1973:
I use HotspotShield to fake an US ip address and that's it no problems buying stuff from B&N.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fulko:
Thanks for the .apk file, that worked. Now for my new observations:

1/ I have to click many times before the 'go to shop'/'go to library' reacts.

2/ I've only ever been able to see the 'about' screen once, and the other

button on the top right of the screen 'do not seem to work'.

... but it _is_ progress!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fulko:
HotspotShield

I looked at that service. It seems to be a MS Windows or Mac only product.

So that doesn't help on the Nook, or my other Linux machines - unless HotspotShield

supports standard VPN'ish software without the need for their magic code.

(if so, how?)
[Acer Iconia A500] JoKu:
After my update this morning the GPS logo in the bottom status bar will not go away even if I am not using an app that requires GPS. It never did this before except when it first was powered on and then within a few seconds it would disappear. Now it stays on and I had to uncheck the "use GPS satellites" box in Settings. I am just afraid it will drain the battery if left flashing in the status bar and before the update I left the "use GPS satellites" checked at all times. Anyone else have this going on?

Edit: Re-Checking the "use GPS satellites" box again a few hours later and the icon is not coming on unless I'm in maps, then it goes away after I exit. Maybe it's back to normal now.

Edit again: Now it's back searching for GPS again with the box checked. But, I guess that's how it's supposed to be. Maybe it was just wrong before, because on my phone I turn it off when not in use. Guess that's what I'll do on the Acer too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Razer(x):
Hi, i need a Samsung's Froyo rom to come back from CM7 before i sell this phone, the problem is that i have no usb cable.

Is there any way to do that?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
NOPE :(

to come from CM7 - Stock ROM you need a 3 file firmware with PIT and Re-partition

you can only do this through odin
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Razer(x):
Dammit!

I'm ****ed
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
get a usb cable :D problem solved lol

or sell it with CM7 running
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Razer(x):
Where to buy it?

As far as i can see, that's not the regular mini-usb cable
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
buy one from ebay, your local phone shop , amazon anywhere

or direct from samsung, or even borrow a friends :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Razer(x):
Thanks mate
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vcespon:
The Galaxy S uses a MICRO-USB port, like most phones today (manufacturers have adopted it as standard). You can purchase a USB -- micro-usb cable in many shops, for $5 or less.

You need to disable lagfix before flashing a stock ROM again. Be sure to boot into CWM recovery, advanced and disable lagfix. Reoboot the phone so it disables lagfix, go back into recovery again to be sure that lagfix is disabled.

Then you can flash any ROM using ODIN

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
I got a replacement battery from T-Mobile about a week ago for the G2X and since I've been using it I have had ZERO sleep of deaths or charging related issues. The phone runs much much cooler as well.

I remember with my old battery a few times when I had the sleep of death and had to pull the battery the battery was rather warm and there was an odor like it was overheating. Also there were times when the phone just felt hot while charging or in use. This no longer also happens.

I still get reboots but I believe strongly that to be a software issue since my reboots used to be every 18-20 hours and now after some app changes the phone usually lasts 30-40 hours before it reboots.

So if you are having sleep of death issues or charging related problems, get your battery swapped out!

My old battery had a 3/28/11 date and my new one has a 4/28/11 date so anything after 4/28/11 should be safe.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] j2eubank:
good to hear.. my new battery should be here today.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
got my replacement yesterday. 14 hours uptime but I'm not holding my breath for any difference. I only got sod like 3 times the entire time I've had the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Profondo_Rosso:
I'm getting my replacement battery Monday so lets hope that's the issue.

I really think it's a temperature problem with the battery. When I lay the phone battery down, and charge it, sleep of death. When I have the protective case on and charge it, SoD. When I have the phone sitting on it's side, kind of standing up while charging, no SoD. Also, when driving and it's in sunlight with the case on, I get the SoD. Without the case, no SoD.

I can only gather that the battery is bad and gets too hot, forcing a shutdown.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
49 hours 15 minutes uptime and not a single SOD or reboot. Phone runs noticeably cooler while charging also. SOD may be due to the battery afterall.

old battery dated 4/16, new one 4/23 so I dont think date has anything to do with it.

[Milestone 2 General] scotty7910:
Hi all I have been following this forum as I am considering getting a milestone 2.While searching the web earlier to day I visited GSM arenas page for the milestone 2.Upon reading the comments I see a post at the top by someone named "cloud" giving a link to how to update milestone 2 (droid 2) to gingerbread 2.3.3.Post is dated today and points to a page at latest firmwares website.

I have no milestone to check with so am wondering does anyone know of this?If so can they confirm/dismiss this:D

Download link leads to a file named Monster_D2_2.3.2_4.5.153.zip

Still none the wiser

Cant post links sorry
[Milestone 2 General] cindylove:
Droid2 isnt Milestone2
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
I'll second that. And I don't think it's very hard to discover that while Droid 2 and Milestone 2 look similar they simply aren't the same (I'm sorry but this is such a common assumption from people that it's starting to annoy me).

If you're looking for an Android device that will get updates or has a lot of custom ROMs, the GSM Motorola devices simply aren't made for you. Neither are custom ROMs if you're unable to figure out the differences between Droid 2 and Milestone 2. Flashing a Droid 2 ROM into the Milestone 2 simply might brick it.

However, if you do want a device with support for custom ROMs or the latest updates, it's quite simple: Google's Nexus, Samsung, HTC and LG.
[Milestone 2 General] handsomeboy1702:

Almost. Droid 2 is based on the TI OMAP 3620, Milesstone 2 on TI OMAP 3630 but it shouldn't make any difference I think.
[Milestone 2 General] scotty7910:
Sorry for any confusion caused,but I went out of my way to state where I found the link (the gsm arena MILESTONE 2 page) and that I didnt have a device.Therefore did not tell anyone to flash this "Flashing a Droid 2 ROM into the Milestone 2 simply might brick it"I tried with the help of google to find out the difference between the droid 2 and the milestone previously with no definitive answer.So I presumed it was merely the cdma (us) take on the milestone 2 name:confused: the answers have helped me understand a bit more so thanks.I am looking to change phones very soon.I am wondering if the milestone 2 (as I have the opportunity to buy one fro a good price) will definitely see gingerbread in some form.Blurred or not.Also I have no interest in samsung galaxy 2 as is too big and expensive.Also all the new htc phones are not open to custom roms (desire s,incredible s) as some may think.Came to the conclusion that at 220 gbp brand new the milestone 2 may represent a sensible choice of phone.Many thanks and again sorry for the confusion:D
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
CDMA vs GSM is probably the most important difference between te devices.

It isn't clear whether Motorola will release a Gingerbread upgrade for the device, as nothing has been confirmed (via Motorola's official support channels). Some say the China version of the Milestone 2 might get an official Gingerbread release, but still as we all know Motorola right know, nothing can be certain.

Mikevhl is right know trying te get CyanogenMod 7 working on the Milestone 2, so probably we might see Gingerbread on this device.

After a recent rom flash my apps would no longer install saying that I had insufficent space. I've looked aroudn my device and it appears there's plenty of available space however I don't know if there's something I'm missing or if it may have been a bad flash? I tried reverting back to a backup and I continued having the problem.

I think you had a bad flash id suggest you to go to recovery and flash the same rom you're using and see if it works and if it doesnt try odin and thats 100% sure thats goin to fox your problems and if you continue to have the same problem then the rom if the one thats giving you troubles... if it is try flashin another rom such as trigger..

[HTC Sensation] Barff1984:
Ok....pro-tip for you guys unsure whether the sensation is the right device for you:

I was like you once...not many days ago....constantly on here, waiting for reviews....being very critical of what people had to say about it....then i just figure

Vodafone have a 7 day returns policy.....completely free...as is the insurance (incase you lose it)...so take advantage of it!

I bought mine on Tuesday with the sole purpose of knowing i had a 7 day test phase.

I'm happy with the device, Vodafone have been alright, signal is on par if not better than t-mobile.

I'm not as picky as some people on here that expect 0% lag....guys...it's going to lag for whatever reason at some point. It's not everytime though and tbh...complaining about lag on the sensation is being very anal as it doesn't do it enough to annoy.

The cameras good, Internal memory is more than enough (a big one for people that think it's not good enough, seriously...

Here's my app brain details

Device:

HTC Sensation Z710e(last sync 32 sec ago)

Apps:

150 total, 125 free (83%), 25 paid (16%)

Total Size:

364MB

Total price (currently):

$77.56

http://www.appbrain.com/user/Barff

After moving what i need to to th SD card with Apps2sd i still have 858mb left of internal memory.....not bad....pretty sure i wont have any problems with a few more apps (or another 200 perhaps)

Anyway, just my opinion on a few things :)
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I am getting the sensation but I am waiting for the sim free handsets to be released. Probably will also have an upgraded roms with few bug fixes when those comes out
[HTC Sensation] biohaz55:
Just for info the vodafone handsets in the uk are sim free but do have vodafone branding although it is minimal and until they are unlocked, if ever, then you will be tied to vodafone rom updates.
[HTC Sensation] Stan3k:
I've had mine nearly a week and I'm pretty impressed. Admittedly not quite as blown away as I was expecting, but am very satisfied.

I think the build quality is good and I really like the design. I appreciate the slightly longer narrower style; it feels smaller than the HD2 in my hand, and is easier to use one handed.

I am using Launcher Pro (I like the space for extra shortcuts in the dock), which is silky smooth, and goes nicely in combination with the HTC lock screen and HTC notifications bar.

Battery life is pretty good - regularly getting two days, including browsing/gaming/music on the train, and with exchange push enabled.

Have no complaints about signal quality, and GPS fix is very fast (faster that my dedicated car GPS).

The Vodafone branding is minimal, I just hope they are quick in releasing updates when HTC release them.

All in all, very happy with my purchase.
[HTC Sensation] Barff1984:

Im sure that I want one with the new Sense on it.

The Techradar review of it concerning its call quality and battery life has made me rather concerned about these as in both cases they are rated by them as below average.
[HTC Sensation] Barff1984:
Most the data is sent automatically to the SD card. I didn't need to manually move half of the apps that I normally I do on my desire. Seriously if you're going from desire....It's a huge change when it comes to memory....it feels so liberating not having to delete other apps :)
[HTC Sensation] bongd:
Vodafone's website says that their version is GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSDPA 850/1900/2100. And Bell.ca lists their phones as being "HSPA/UMTS 850/1900/2100 MHz and GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz".

Does this mean that if I get an unlocked Vodafone version that I can use it on Bell Mobility's network?
