Personally, I hate cases. Takes away phone's style and makes it thicker. I got the leather bag with my Play and I'm very happy with it - this way it's in only when not in use and it easily slides in and out of the case.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
I'm planning on ditching AT&T when my contract runs out next month, and VM's $25/mo plan for the LG Optimus V is looking pretty good. It's not a deciding factor, but I wondered if anyone's had any luck tethering the NC to the VM Android phones, or seen any other benefits that carry over.

Also, if you have any feedback on VM or the phones in general, I'd love to hear it, including the best way to give their network a spin before I dump $$ into a phone. If I buy a phone that they carry used, is it any hassle getting it activated?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajhorn:
I recently switched, and I'm spending less than half.

Sometimes Target puts the $60 top-up cards on sale for less than face value, which is amazing.

The aosp firmware provided by the ROM Manager only does wifi tethering. Bluetooth and USB isn't available yet.

The LG Optimus V has a Quadrant benchmark score of 500 ootb with the stock Virgin Mobile firmware. The aosp firmware is 800. Overclocking with the Cyanogen panel puts it above 1000, which is top tier.

Great phone, but lacking an ARM 7 CPU for Adobe Flash and Google Earth, and an LED notification blinky.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
Good to get some feedback from someone who's put the phone through its paces :)

To clarify a couple of things, can you share the phone's data connection with the NC over Wi-Fi (assuming you have a NC)? Has VM squawked about it at all, or do they have a way to charge you for it?

Are you finding the aosp/CM7 ROM pretty functional? It looks like some people are having camera issues, and SMS just recently started working.

Also, do those discounted top-up cards just get credited to your account, and your $25/mo comes out of the balance? Did not know you could do that :D

I have a Kindle.

No, but I haven't gone over the 5GB cap.

Autofocus broke after the May 23rd build, so I figure that the aosp firmware will have it fixed sometime soon. I haven't had a problem with SMS.

Yes. The Virgin Mobile top-up cards that are sold retail are credited to your account at face value and not taxed. You can change the draw-down option on your account at the virginmobileusa dot com web site.

Last week, my local Super Target had the $60 cards on sale for $56, and I got an extra 5% discount for using a loyalty card. Local sales tax is 8.25%, so I paid $57.58, which is less than face value. I had an "oh wow" moment at the cashier.

The real cost of Virgin Mobile service is much less than an AT&T contract. The only bad thing about the Virgin Mobile service that I've noticed is that they block call forwarding, which also breaks Google Voice.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taosaur:
D'oh! That's a good heads up, as I was strongly considering a full transition to my GV number, thinking that way I could keep a back-up prepaid on another carrier and have GV route to whichever was turned on. Does it break GV's voicemail, too? Having to call in to retrieve voicemails may be a dealbreaker.

ETA: I wonder if this is a harbinger that GV might come to VM not too far down the road: http://googlevoiceblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/google-voice-and-sprint-integration-is.html
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajhorn:
Google voicemail integration is currently broken on Virgin Mobile phones. You'll need to check each voicemail box separately, or use the Google Voice widget instead.

In the last few weeks, Google Apps started returning a "your carrier does not support Google Voice... call them to complain" kind of message instead of a numbered error dialog.

Inbound calling through Google Voice works normally, but outbound calling is through a callback. Sprint recently got full Google Voice support, so support for the Virgin Mobile brand might be coming.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] WheresWaldo:
So after using the TF for a week or so, I can't decide his to orient the pad while using it in portrait mode. Sometimes it is Camera on the right side. This orientation places the power and sound buttons on top but the headphone jack is on the bottom. Sometimes the other way around. I am curious how others use the TF and if they actuallyhave given this any thought
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
Whenever I use it in portrait its usually for web browsing or reading books, the placement of the power/volume buttons doesn't really bother me. I usually just have them on the top since its easier to reach up than down.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lacrossev:
I orient it however it lets me have the tablet connected to the mains if i need to charge it while i'm using it...stupid short cable
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deanhatescoffee:
You gotta get yourself a USB 3.0 extension cable. I can actually sit on my couch and charge my TF at the same time now.

In portrait mode, I always use it with the power button up top. It just seems more natural that way.

Has anyone had issues with there audio through the headphone jack? It sounds like I am listening though a tunnel!!! And even through the speakers I notice it a little. Any suggestions?
[Acer Iconia A500] lilirose:
I had this issue with the first set of headphones I tried (the set that came with my Samsung Galaxy S). I swapped the headphones for a better set (Sony's standard €20 earbuds) and the problem was fixed.
[Acer Iconia A500] Mautflucht:
Just disable Dolby Mobile in Settings when listening with the headphones. Dolby Mobile seems to be related to (optimized for) the internal speakers.
[Acer Iconia A500] MonitorMonkey:
This will indeed fix your issue. Also make sure the jack seated correctly... sounds silly but on the iconia I have noticed many times that it didn't correctly sense my headphone jack and audio was coming through the cable but sounding very thin, as well as still playing out the iconia speakers.

i have a nexus s model i9020t- t-mobile i unlock the bootloader been trying for 3 days to install recovery.. using all gamer method whenever i type the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img it say it could not open recovery image... can anyone help i read all over xda about this kind of problem, try every single method.. still can't get recovery.. anyhelp will be apreciate thanks...:mad:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
I think the answer is very simple:

When you type the command you must type in the full path to the recovery image file. It will depend on where you saved it, but for example when I flash it, I have to type:

fastboot flash recovery c:\android-sdk\tools\recovery-clockworkmod-3.0.2.4-crespo.img

Just make sure you type all the folder names exactly as they are on your system, and type the full exact name of the recovery file you are flashing.

[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
it is same RIL as in ril by Paul of MoDaCo, which he gave for baseband 405....

I compared it with Hex comparing tool, its just same RIL, same size but just different built date. Which can be due to new release date of firmware and new extraction.

Did someone already test it and found the best value?

I want to be able to at least sound like I know what I'm talking about with my NC. I mostly understand most of the Android lingo, but some of the NC-specific stuff, like eMMC and it's effect on things, different partitions, dual booting, sd card speed, themes, and all sorts of other stuff are really new to me and proving to be a bit of an assault on the senses. Is there any sort of "noob guide to the Nook" anywhere? Or maybe "Nook 101?"
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fattire:
eMMC - embedded multi-media card-- think of it like your nook's "hard drive" -- its internal storage.

partitions-- see here.

the bootloader is called u-boot.bin and it's on partition 1.

dual booting... see here (warning, technical).

sd card speeds, see here or here.

There is a whole forum for themes.

Here's some more terms...

Aside from that, I think there are some beginner's guides floating around. Not sure exactly which is the best so I'll leave that to others...

This is being met with a lot of scepticism elsewhere. People assuming that HTC want to fork Android and call it sense. I wonder myself, to me, Sense has always been a glorified Launcher, so let's hope they don't stray too far from that.

Yeah, kinda - but your not going to power your microwave by pushing your Pinto Wagon down a hill.

Even if the Nooks speaker were able to generate a sufficient electrical signal from audio induced vibrations (which it can't) there isn't any electronics there to interpret those electrical signals.

True... back in the day I connected a pair of headphones to the line-in on a cassette recorder and was able to use them as a microphone to record my voice.

True & the only reason that I brought it up is in response to the statement;

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JowBe:
It's obvious to me that you have absolutely no background in electronics, and you believe whatever label is put on a device. Have you never used one of the old style walkie-talkies? How about intercoms? Their speakers are both speakers and microphones. With your way of thinking, a nook would be nothing more than an ereader ... cuz they're ereaders, not tablets.

However, just because a speaker can be used as a microphone doesn't mean the supporting electronics are there, i.e. amplification stage, etc. That's why I asked the question.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ophidion:
Charging Li-ion battery above 4.2v is bad.

This app you asked about is very important. Charging a battery more than 4.2 volts dramatically shortens its recharge cycle numbers. I measured my battery volts, found that 4.2 volts is achieved around 85%.

An app that would prevent charging over 80% will be great.

You all make foolish observation based on you personal use of some batteries, of course this is not a reliable info.

You learn in basics of electronics that there is a quantity of energy that it is supposed to be put in a battery for storage, extending it's battery life, and also. Cientific studies show that maintaining your battery near this spot is healthier, so the app wold be pretty useful.

And no, comments like "I've had plenty of batteries, I make bad use of them and after a year they're just fine" doesn't disqualify cientific research.
