[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgruendler:
How long a file takes to transfer usually (almost always) depends on your internet connection speed. Since the GTAB is WIFI only, you would think that it would be on a decent ISP. I have beed using Dropbox for months now on both my EVO and my GTAB and it works spectacular.

Side note:

Dropbox is free, why not just try it? Only takes minutes to install and try.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgigate:
It works like any android phone.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoTeC:
+1 Works awesome! I load anything I need in my DropBox and is available anytime I need it on my Laptop, GTab or HTC Inspire 4G. You can also share to anyone, anywhere. Great app!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schettj:
It's no slower on the gtab.

Remember with dropbox that everything goes "thru the cloud" - so if you want to copy a file from computer to gtab, and the two are 1' apart, sending the file to dropbox (limited by your broadband upload speed) and then copying it down from dropbox to your gtab (limited by your broadband download speed) is going to be a lot slower than using local networking, or direct USB mounting, or a USB memory stick.

Dropbox is often slower than my 45mbit connection at work, and even slower than my 12mbit connection at home. It seems to download for me at about 250-400kb/sec, or about 6-7 minutes to transfer a 100MB file.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettdwagner:
Dropbox is great, but if your looking for automatic file sync then SugarSync is far superior. You can selectively sync files between a computer and android device, so the downloads happen automatically. Also if your looking to play video files on the Gtab, google docs now streams uploaded video files in a youtube style player, which works very well on the Gtab
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgruendler:
That is mostly correct. Dropbox uses md5 checksums when you upload a file to see if it already has it in its database. If it does, it automatically shows it as in your dropbox and it is ready to download instantly. They do this so they save space.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosser2:
yes its very nice to use. You can sideload any apk's on your laptop then just grab the ones that you need tablet side ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
"Cell Standby" was draining my battery according to the power statistics page. Airplane mode kills this process and greatly improves battery life.

I can still use wi-fi... haven't tried GPS though.

Anything I'm missing here?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mikecoffee:
3g internet
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] stepchild:
I noticed this also in battery stats. I don't understand why we would even have this on a wifi only flyer. anyone got a guess as to why?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kcchen:
Keep in mind Android was meant for smartphones... Not tablets without 3g.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kkinder:
That's weird, it's not even on the list for me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] TDQuiksilver:
Interesting. I seem to see a slight improvement with battery life if in Airplane Mode, but nothing huge.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sniggity:
I'm running ADW Launcher EX v1.3.3 and CM7 nightly 81.

So I rename quite a few Apps that I have on my home screens. Now if I restart my phone some apps revert back to their original name and some stay renamed. For example, I rename the Xfinity Mobile app to Comcast and any time I restart the phone it reverts back. Where the the At Bat 11 app that I renamed to MLB does does not revert back. There are quite a few other examples...I guess I could list all apps that do and don't revert if that would help.

It's driving my crazy because I can't figure out what is causing this issue. I've tried using lower versions or ADW and it doesn't make a difference. I doubt it's the nightly build causing it but who knows.

Any thoughts on what I can do here??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sniggity:
After doing some further testing I found that if I try to change which screen is the default home screen it doesn't save it either.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] triscuit1983:
I've been having an ADW Launcher EX problem too on my wifes phone. It's been going on for the last 6 or so nightlies. The problem she has is certain widgets resize themselves or disappear altogether. All that we've been doing is going into ADW settings and clicking "Restart ADW". I can't find the cause of it.

I run ADW on the nightlies as well and I only have widgets set, I've never had a problem. It's weird.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sniggity:
I'm going to install Launcher Pro, uninstall ADW, search for adw in root explorer and delete everything left, restart, and install ADW again.

If that doesn't work I don't know what else to try besides wiping my phone completely and starting fresh. I really don't want to do that but we'll see I guess.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] knoc:
You could just uninstall clear data. Or just restart ur phone and wipe cache and davlik. I've done this before to fix odd occurrences
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sniggity:
Well I just did a complete wipe and started fresh with CM7 latest stable build and I'm still having the same issues.

Is there any reason certain Apps can't be renamed/saved for some reason?? The ADW launcher that comes with CM7 works just fine and saves the renamed App names. So It's really confusing why ADW EX wouldn't do the same.

Any other thoughts out there on this??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sniggity:
UPDATE

I just installed ADW LAuncher EX v1.3.1 and it seems to be saving my renamed Apps so far. It seems like v1.3.2 and v1.3.3 are causing the issue for some reason now.....very weird
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osaeed:
Hello

I want to go back to stock firmware. I have Hboot-1.33.0013d and Radio-2.22.27.08.

Can I follow this guide? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=491350

or Is there another process of unrooting the phone to stock firmware. I do not want to brick the phone, so any help is appreciated and I do thank you for your assistance.

Thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
yes you can use that method. it worked for me! i had to un root a couple times.. here are the file to update to 1.5 and 1.6 after un rooting because it takes forever to wait for automatic update.. haha

1.5

1.6

be sure to un partition sd card before un rooting lol.. if using RA 1.7.0 just go to partition sd card and set all values to 0! than your sd will be formatted and un partitioned!

after un rooting place either the 1.5 or 1.6 update.zip on root of sd and boot into recovery, should be stock recovery so when you see the yellow triangle and ! thing press and hold alt+L untill words pop up. than press alt+w to wipe data, now press alt+s to apply update. let finish and reboot you will have stock 1.5, or 1.6 firmware!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Heh, I always meant to turn that "original XDA thread" into an ADB tutorial for Windows users... but I just never got around to it.

Thanks for putting this together - do you mind if I reference it in the FAQ?

Just skimmed over the how-to - perhaps you should mention that in lieu of the Android SDK, you can simply download Droid Explorer. It usually takes care of the nitty gritty stuff, but pdanet seems to fill in the gaps with driver issues...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] AkumaX:
I actually found the drivers we needed (XDA in Device Manager)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12705726&postcount=7
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Droid Explorer took care of all the drivers for me on Windows the first time. The second time, PDA.net took care of them for me. I had issues with a ton of different drivers the second time around; even tried wiping them from the system, etc... PDA.net was the only solution that worked for me, as you can see in the linked thread I started.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] AkumaX:
I installed Droid Explorer and was left w/ 3 (!) Drivers missing, CDC abstract control model ACM x 2, and XDA. After I installed the HTC Sync drivers, it found the driver for XDA and then that gave the ability to let Droid Explorer install the other two *shrugs*
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] slycker:
AkumaX, which version of windows did you get the drivers working with? Had you previously tried to install other versions of drivers, or was this 'fresh'? I haven't tried this route (being happy with my PDANet drivers working) - would you say the instructions are good on: http://www.mydigitallife.info/workaround-for-htc-hero-sync-problem-in-windows-7/

arrrghhh, please go ahead and link to this post. I had included the SDK portion because I had mis-read the droidexplorer main page, where the author stated his intent to stop updating the SDK and default to the pre-installed SDK. I see now that he intends to link to the SDK, and thus facilitate its installation for the user. I'll update that in the first post.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] AkumaX:
I'm using Win7-64 bit, so I used those drivers. It was a fresh install, and I never even thought to use PDANet, my own searching stumbled upon that thread for the HTC Sync Drivers. It could be better that you install the HTC Sync Drivers before Droid Explorer, but I'd have to find another 'clean' system to try on :P
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
That's what VirtualBox is for! lol.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cimer:
Hello, My G2 did a face plant on a hardwood floor this morning and the screen is now black. I know it is responsive due to the haptic feed back of the lock screen and the buttons. I assume it's just the back light, but I can't see the screen if I hold it under the light. Does anyone have a solution? Searched and came up empty handed. Help is very welcomed!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbmg:
I dropped mine many times, without it breaking the screen. But a week ago, mine finally took the fatal fall as well. I ended up getting one through the insurance, though it did cost 130. Don't know if its worth taking it to a repair shop and trying to get it fixed, as far unrooting and stuff there is a guide to do it without the screen and using adb.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cimer:
That stinks, my screen is fine, it just wont show anything, not even scratched...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrbmg:
Yah mine was the same way. Just blank, and would appear white at times, kinda grey and black. Looks wise it was flawless.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captainreynolds:
I had the same issue arise when I accidentally put my knee (and entire body weight) on the screen of my first G2. Afterwards, the screen would not turn on, ever. I could tell things were working because of the haptic feedback still working, and I could raise and lower the volume, even accept calls.

Fortunately, it was within the first fourteen days of purchase - so I just took it to T-mobile and said: "This just quit working." They replaced it for free right then and there.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aconnic:
Did you try doing a master reset using the hardware keys?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashaman_Kupo:
Mine did the exact same thing. I just changed the screen. I couldn't do anything else. I couldn't revert back to stock since i couldn't see CWM. I asked for help and nobody help. Thats why I just voided the warranty and opened it up. I just bought my second screen because it crapped out again. If it does it again I'll just use my insurance for a new phone. Then I might get that sensation. looks great.

Still using froyo so I can stream, I just streamed Blue Streak to hdmi and it looked pretty good, little choppy but still amazing. I will try on my Sprint Lovers and current GB nands.

Edit: Very nice works on Sprint Lovers. Great work. Also works on Leoisright speedy port(no streaming) which is cool because the rosie is landscaped also.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CrippleB:
It will work on older sense(sprint lovers warm z), any sense that I tried past froyo won't stream, but landscape is ok.

I had working (stream) on sprint lovers rom. Ran netflix through hdmi for my whole lunch break no problem.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jamsterzak:
I wonder if its hardware drivers not present. Is there a apk for netflixs available that is confirmed working on sense builds? If so, I could easily add the ability to use the accelerometer in landscape.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CrippleB:
Yeah, just the market version is what I found to work on sprint lovers and warm z. Also there new update last week was supposed to work with newer roms but I haven't been able to use.

One of the things I just noticed on landscaped netflix ver. Streaming starts loading, then quits, then starts again but the second loading screen with loading icon gets bigger and off center. Then it quits back to netflix. Which is more then I get with other ver. Usually quits after white screen or I get "problem getting media if problem persists contact netflix"

Update: Just tested landscape on virus kingdom b1.1 landscape is good no stream.

might look into rooting my phone been a lil worried about doing it never done it befor and dont wanna screw it up but that seems to me like the only way ill be able to get it to work on my phone until (im not holding my breath for this) netflix decides to support my phone

go to the teamdouche mirrors, your phone is classified under "ace".

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CrippleB:
I didn't yet. But it's not too much of a hassle I just don't update in market. Probably won't be a reason to until official GB update, then netflix will put out update. Maybe they could save us the time and just add full landscape.
