It was anemic before and possibly slightly more now. The overall volume (or lack of it) is the only thing I really find disappointing about the TF. Was playing a vid for a doc at a meeting the other day, and three of us huddle around it had a hard time hearing it cranked all the way up. The slightest noise of anyone else doing anything in the room just killed it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] yohanpra:
Yeh I've had a major drop in left speaker and bad drop in volume on headphones ...... And mine was the official 3.1 update too...... Very dissatisfied
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akhobbes:
Same problem here. Video is very low when playing avi's or TV Shows Stream. But YouTube app is plenty loud.

Any fixes?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ravizzle:
I bought volume + and now it is much louder. Left speaker is still lower volume though. But now atleast I can hear music from the tab.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] setite:
Bumping this. I'm hoping someone has an idea. It feels like its getting worse. Basically I used to be able to place the tablet on a rack in front of the ****ter and enjoy a show while I pooped, but now I simply can't hear it at all, even with no white noise or anything that could be an issue. So with what you guys have said, I know I'm not crazy.

SOMEONE PLEASE FIGURE THIS OUT. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
some peeps already figured out it's a messed up sound config file and you can fix it if you are rooted, was readig through a thread on it here I bleieve lst night. I'm sure it'll be fixed with a software update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] setite:
I'm delivering pizzas right now. Do you have a link
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
I had this too before I sent it in for RMA service.

In fact, I knew about this issue before I even upgraded to 3.1 so I was aware and decided to see if these people were making this up or not. After upgrading I did notice a significant decrease in volume. This was disappointing, it almost made me feel like I was using the Nook Color again.

You're not imagining this. Before the sound was so loud that you could hear it from another room and the unit actually vibrates a bit. Now it's so low it's hard to hear the low tones in anything.

My guess is they messed with it to try to fix the imbalanced speaker issue but ended up messing it up for other people now. ETA for fix is fifteen years. See you then!:rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Noticed lower volume too after update. take the srs_proceeding.cfg file from my 3.0.1 and paste it to the 3.1 rom and it was louder.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ClevelandWheeler:
Mine is fine. I'm not rooted and I have the update.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnikec:
Please don't flame me for not searching, but I'm at work now and didn't have time to perform an extended search for my problems.

Ill start by stating I am a new nook color user. Grabbed it this morning after doing a lot of research for the best tablet/e-reader. Ill begin with some of the specs.

Initially was 1.2.0

Performed the rooting with a class 4 8gb SD card.

Flashed the SD card with the recovery system.

Downloaded and moved Google apps, CDM, as well as stock rom in case I failed.

So I read through many different tutorials as well as watched countless videos on rooting and flashing CDM to the NC.

After downloading and getting recovery to show up I performed the formatin steps that followed. However when I tried to format data, it came up as failed this threw up a warning sign so I looked up the error problem. I read I needed to repartition my NC since Barnes and noble's changed it in after may?

Well here's the situation. I tried to flash it back to 1.2 and came up with yet another data error. I then tried the 8-boot format which also did not work. Now comes the strange part. After rebooting my NC enough times It suddenly loaded android 2.3. After android popped up I tried to install Google apps which included market and that failed.

So right now I am stuck with a flashless, and marketless NC. The last time I touched android was on my ATT tilt.

Can anyone explain what I did wrong?

Hi,

I know many android users are looking for Emoji solutions, so I thought I'd start a thread where we can share ideas.

I know that Handcent is the most well-known semi-solution, but it would be cool to explore better solutions.

To get this thread started, I'll share a solution I found. It is called Emoji Keyboard. The developer also provided an instruction on how to make your Android display emoji. Don't forget to backup before you do this.

If you want to see the emoji icon on your device, please follow the steps below to replace the font.

1. you need to have a rooted device

2. backup /system/fonts/DroidSansFallback.ttf by adb or Root Explorer

3. download the font with emoji from http://www.sendspace.com/file/kwqblo

4. replace the font in /system/fonts/DroidSansFallback.ttf by the downloaded font by adb or Root Explorer

5. if you use Root Explorer, please press "Mount R/W" on the top right corner to enable the write permission on /system/fonts/

6. set the file permission of the font as below

user = read & write

group = read

others = read

Guys, check out this Toggle 2G by TheMasterBaron:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739530

It works for me. I flashed the signed version via OR and then installed the Notification plug-in apk so that I can control when it should or should not toggle from 2G to 3G,

bcs sometimes I turn on the screen to check the time or sms or use some non data related apps....so not necessary to switch to 3G when screen turns on.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] alicheusz:
I am not sure what rom You are using but on CM7 it's better to use 2G/3G toggle form notification bar (toggle 2G takes memory). To preserve battery life I am on 2G almost constantly. One thing to notice that 62KernelTweak speed up 2G noticeably. I am very rarely use 3G as 2G is fine with this tweak. I am form Poland, Play network.

Edit:

I don't noticed any improvements in wifi or 3G with 62KernelTweak

hey guys after watching this interview from Microsoft about Windows 8 , for tablets and PCs and laptops ,, i can truthfully say , am not going buy gtab10 or any tablets that support android . am going to wait for the release of any good company for tablet with OS windows 8 and surely i'll buy it ..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MnEndww2YQ&feature=player_embedded#at=16

do you think android will get busted by windows 8 ?
[Galaxy Tab General] numb_heart666:
i want this on my galaxy tab.....
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
exactly the same thing came to my mind after watching this :(
[Galaxy Tab General] numb_heart666:
would that be possible? they tried arm that has dual core but how about our single core?
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
i think it will be so hard to fit windows 8 on galaxy tab .... its depend about the dev , anyways they didn't release it yet . now am thinking of buying tab10.1 or waiting for windows 8 with a good company like samsung and only samsung cuz its easy to play with it :D
[Galaxy Tab General] natious:
Lol, you think its going to be that fast over 3g/hspda, and no, i doubt this will ever come to android tablets, im pretty sure that these will be built around intels new dual core atoms, or maybe the new snapdragons.

edit: The multi-tasking does look neat tho.
[Galaxy Tab General] codewisp:
They announced support for ARM..
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
don't be happy that much :) i can't sell my tab :) have u ever heard someone fall in love with a tab ? ? if u didn't :D u probably hear it now :D

that someone is me lolz .. and i didn't ask this to be on my tab !!!! am satisfied with overcome :D , am saying , windows 8 probably will eat android and mac OS :D .. maybe who knows
[Galaxy Tab General] bikrame:
The problems of windows phone is not OS; its a market place, it seems empty. There is nothing on it.

I have used hd2 for couple of month and love user interface of windows but when i open market , it made me mad.

iOS is not a great os , but its apps make it great. Android is growing but windows is all empty place. I will not switch to windows tab unless it has some nice market place.
[Galaxy Tab General] liniutze:
Pfff, it's Windows !!! it will freeze and crash 1387445 times per day.

And the OS will not be open source, you will not have root.

And the applications will cost more, much more.
[Galaxy Tab General] pendevous:
I'm willing to give it a try, but I can't say if it'll be better than Android or iOS or QNIX. It's still too early to speculate.

@liniutze

- My Ubuntu crashes a lot more than Windows. My Windows 7 hasn't had a BSOD for a year already.

- Not have root is no problem as long as it will work, imo. What they have to do is to make it idiot-proof.

- We can't really say. There are a lot of free apps for the desktop copy of Windows. If they manage to port a lot of great apps, then money is no problem as long as their quality is nice.

Besides, I expected Apple to have apps which costs like $100. I was wrong, considering that Apple seem to have a more, "prestige" perspective than Windows. I mean, their laptops alone costs twice than Windows laptops.
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
Exactly. I can't believe this is even a conversation. Android is the fastest growing mobile OS out there. There are over 300,000 Android handsets activated each day. That's a pretty amazing stat. I for one won't give up Android, especially for Windows.
[Galaxy Tab General] eSu.Matix:
Windows 8 seems great, so this will make people from google to make Android OS even better and that's good for us. Even Windows 7 is actually incredible.

As for iOS, Americans and British will always buy this crap...
[Galaxy Tab General] mchlbenner:
What a joke they said windows mobile 7 was going tobe the one not mobiles windows is old history move on.
[Galaxy Tab General] alrey:
ive tried wp7 on a friends phone and its snappy and integrates well with social sites. however, i dont even have an active facebook account and i dont even remember by password in twitter. the only online socialiazing i do is post to forums.

i might have bought one myself but the deal breaker is the missing wifi hotspot functionality. don't count windows mobile out yet. who knows wp8 might be great.

as for windows 8, i think they should retain the current desktop ui as windows 7 is great. the touch interface should only be an option that can be turned on/off. admit it, the keyboard and mouse combo still is supreme if you really needs to get some serious work done. the touch interface for desktop is only good for kiosks or presentations.

the reason for the popularity of other OS alternatives is microsofts fault also. they started going into consoles and put less priority on games for windows. they are diminishing their biggest advantage over the other OSes on home use.. and now if they make windows 8 "touch only", they effectively killed gaming in PCs and i might as well move on to mac.
[Galaxy Tab General] Adapt0r:
Where is innovation?

1. They advertise HTML5, Javascript etc as innovation feature, however, the same is possible on both Android and iOS. From my perspective Java is much more capable than any of these. It is object oriented and better suited for large projects.

2. Live applications = widgets on Android

3. There is nothing said about the framework and multitasking.

4. Windows will be a closed platform undoubtedly.

So far it looks like simply a promise and marketing show.
[Galaxy Tab General] PBL1:
So Yea

I saw the videos and Wow, but then if everything was like in Microsoft Marketing Cuckooland we all be using fling cars and booking our holidays to Saturn directly from our courier file manager (does anyone remember courier?)

In the real world

Android is far more customizable than WM7, and yes probably tiles are nice and better than static icons, but widgets are even more powerful than tiles, hell, you can customize your own widgets in some cases (Check Maker Your Clock Application for example) or even use live wall papers to display info.

If you put your mind to it You can make your android phone to do whatever WM7 do and then some, same goes for ios, lots of things are doable in Android, the only thing needed is people interested and willing to code the right applications.

In WM7 and iOS, sorry, close source, not allowed.

When Win8 comes out and then I see it running in tablets and can compare with whatever version of Android or Chromium and whatever is out call me,

P.S. rest assured that neither Goggle nor Apple wont be seated doing nothing and waiting for MS to take their market share

[Galaxy Tab General] madsquabbles:
this would make a better tablet with a dock than the transformer! you use you tablet with the same os as you laptops and desktops.

and a marketplace isn't needed. there are tons of sources for windows apps. it may be helpful for a noob, but I know where to get all my software... legally.

if this works well I can see windows taking over both iOS and android. especially if it's as "open" as windows on desktops are. no freaking having to work for root.
[Galaxy Tab General] nabuhonodozor:
No wonder after watching M$ you are euphoric. Its simple social engeneering. Playing on emotions and expectations. The truth is more prosaic. Windows core idea was build on using mouse. MS tried tablets niche many times in the past but never suceeded. Do you imagine mouse with tablet?

This time it will be the same. Much hype will poooof quickly.

I dont consider using windows powered tab since I met android. In fact I have two various fujitsu tabs laying around collecting dust. I need windows to work but for everything else I use android because of easy of use.
[Galaxy Tab General] SidDark:
I do like the Look of the Touch UI, but it's just a UI.. Surely that can be duplicated to some extent under Android. If not now defiantly in future releases?
[Galaxy Tab General] madsquabbles:
right now, as hard as it is for suppliers to keep inventory on docks for asus transformers I'm willing to bet there are thousands of people who can imagine using a mouse or trackpad on a tablet.
[Galaxy Tab General] PhxkinMassacre:
It looks really neat and the swyping paired with the multitasking looms great but the blocky interface just doesn't seem right... so I think ill stick with android. If they port it over to an android device in the future like maybe a kal-el quad core xoom 2 then ill be willing to give it a spin haha :D
[Galaxy Tab General] AlexTheStampede:
Well, Lion is going to be released in the next few days or weeks, and Microsoft has already announced their copy. The gap is closing fast, they aren't anymore 5 years behind!
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
but , i still think windows 8 will be great , they are just trying to follow the android and Mac , but if you want the truth , if windows make the OS open source , it will be great , and like i said , who knows ?

windows are the best OS in the entire world , for pc , laptops , but with phones tablets , i think they have to do some more hard work .. thanks for sharing your thoughts :)
[Galaxy Tab General] AlexTheStampede:
What. Windows can be summarised as DirectX and (several, but less and less) professional softwares not available for other OS. Every now and then they throw in some new features, while the others are photocopied from Linux and Mac OS... and sometimes even remixed so to make them worse! I call that the Microsoft effect, everything they touch ends up ruined.

Moreover I don't see the innovation in the single OS for computers and mobile devices: chronological order sees iOS and then Android before Windows 8, you know.

Or the random open source project running Linux, those came even before iOS... just without any noteworthy commercial success.
[Galaxy Tab General] msgfromside3:
That is unfortunately 10 years old accusation. I see more crash from my tab than win7 now with of course more hour with win7. Not being open source sucks, yes, but let's get the fact right/updated.
[Galaxy Tab General] Rapax:
Am I the only one that really dislikes those tiles? They always remind me of add banners on websites, and conjure up an urge to have them blocked.
[Galaxy Tab General] AlexTheStampede:
No, I think that interface is hideous just like wp7... but that's a matter of tastes, not much to argue about.
[Galaxy Tab General] A. Nonymous:
Personally, I'm loling at the "closed source = fail" comments. It's all about putting out a quality OS. It has nothing to do with whether it's closed or open. Look at the desktop market. Windows is the 500 lb gorilla, OS X has a small share and Linux has practically nothing. The two closed source projects combined control something like 97-98% of the market. Then if you move over to mobile, the two top dogs right now are Android and iOS. We all know how closed iOS is. It's had 0 effect in the market place because closed or not it's still a quality product.
[Galaxy Tab General] oldmacnut:
OK, I need, no, I WANT that split keyboard feature. Why has that not been done by apple, or Google, or anyone other than Microsoft yet?. That is wicked cool.

I'm digging where Microsoft is taking windows. Sure its hard to adapt to new gui's and form factors, but it really does look like win 7 is going to blow apple off its perch.

does anybody know why it shows nothing when I connect my Atrix4G with the laptop ?the phone is not rooted yet.but it shows something when I connect it with the TV .is it something with my laptop ?
[Atrix 4G General] ceo.mtcl:
Because tv has hdmi input and laptop has hdmi output. You are trying to output hdmi from your phone which should go into the input. Since your laptop is not an input you cannot and will not see anything.
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
Is there any adapters that are made to lets say Hdmi to usb? I've seen one for hdmi to svideo. But most laptops don't have that either.
[Atrix 4G General] palmboy5:
Are you just trying to use the laptop screen as a TV for the phone?
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
Yeah. Pointless I know I mean its a laptop. But my computer has hdmi inputs. Well the monitor does.
[Atrix 4G General] ceo.mtcl:
If your monitor has hdmi input then just plug in the hdmi cable into it.
[Atrix 4G General] zeealot:
so what you are saying is it shows nothing either on my phone or my laptop after connecting the HDMI cable ?

actually what I need to do is to run webtop on my computer.so i need to root the phone.before rooting i need to know all the things are working perfectly .

After rooting would it show those options in my phone and the laptop ?
[Atrix 4G General] yhe2x:
@zeealot, you cant connect your phone to any laptop via hdmi... the hdmi port on your phone is for output so as the hdmi port on most laptops so therefore you cant connect output-to-output

if you want to display/output your phone on a bigger screen, you can only connect to a tv or an external monitor that has hdmi input port... also, rooting your phone doesnt have anything to do with it... I hope I explained that clearly to you
[Atrix 4G General] zeealot:
I see.I got it now.

but if I want to use webtop application via my laptop,how do I intend to do that without using any dock ?

You could try using a HDMI capture device like this one:

but it is probably expensive.
[Atrix 4G General] Jnewell05:
$200 its professional grade used for way more then what your wanting it for. You can actually hook up your xbox or ps3 to your laptop with this and record the game play as your playing it.
[Atrix 4G General] tehrules:
Why don't you just buy the laptop and be done with it? You obviously have no clue about how HDMI works, and I wouldn't trust you trying to perform mods to your phone because I know you'll end up here whinging you bricked your phone.

Sigh.
[Atrix 4G General] yhe2x:
you CAN NOT connect it to a laptop BUT if you're referring to an external display with hdmi input (monitor/tv) you can still use webtop without a dock... just search the forum for hdmi mirroring
[Atrix 4G General] zeealot:
Is there any way to make the HDMI output of the laptop to HDMI input ?like by using a converter ?
[Atrix 4G General] link12245:
No. It's not possible. Period.

Use your TV, or get the lap dock, there is physically no way to make your laptop show the webtop off of your phone without an extra tuner card (hdmi are expensive, and not worth it).

Btw, google is your friend.
