Nice case, but YIKES, 130 bucks...

It looks alot like this case, but this one is "genuine imitation leather" and only 33 bucks :

[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
I think I will wait for the Roocase, it seems like better quality but it is a real bummer to see Ipad 2 cases hovering around $10 to 15 while the TF cases -some looking real crude- going for 40.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
The Ebay one is genuine imitation leather as well, or near as makes no difference. Note at the top:

"Type: Leather PU Cases"

Then read this Wikipedia article:

"The use of the term "leather" in relation to this bicast treatment is considered a misrepresentation and therefore not permitted in the United Kingdom and New Zealand. The leather used in the backing of bicast is a thin, otherwise worthless layer, remaining after better quality layers have been removed for traditional leather work and contributes nothing to the look and feel of the end product."

$130 for a third-party, mostly plastic case is frankly insane.

Try moving the backup from internal SD to external SD its in a file called clockworkmod
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nickb1989:
it's already in that folder. this isn't my first time flashing and backing up before and all but this is the first time I have on the G2x and the first time i've ever encountered a problem like this. is there something i'm supposed to do to make rom manager work completely? i remember i used to boot into recovery a couple weeks back and I wouldn't be able to properly navigate and choose what I wanted but then now when I randomly tried today it worked and i was able to boot into recovery perfectly through rom manager but for some reason my backup won't show up and now I'm a little scared lol :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Prod1702:
have you not tried search yet. If you did search then you would have found that Rom Manger does not work with the G2X you need to use the recovery flashed from NVflash to do backups. So you have to boot into recovery by holding down vol-d + power. If you have not flash recovery from NVflash then do not do the vol-d + power or you will hard reset your phone.

i followed the guide in order to root and flash primordal 3.1 however, during that process i forgot to make a backup of my stock rom. is there anyone who made a nandroid of their stock? i would really appreciate it if someone is willing to share.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
you can just do a factory reset to get stock again. (stock 3.1 that is) otherwise, you can also get the non-3.1 update in asus's website. you can flash that, and do a factory reset, and you're stock again (well, not stock, but pre-3.1)

I don't need a signature.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tq745:
If I do a factory reset then ill still be on primordial 3.1 and not on the stock 3.1

afterward, if i want to restore all the apps and settings, after i nvflash my phone, i use titanium to restore?

Also, i read somewhere about system apps and user apps. If i restore system apps, my phone will have erratic behaviour? That means, i can only backup user apps?

Sorry for many questions. Still getting the hang of it.

I had Cwm installed and the phone rooted, I still was able to upgrade from LG though...
[LG Optimus 2x] fifi139:
Really? Did you use LG mobile update? I tried to update using LG mobile update and it said there was an update available but when i tried to update my phone it said mine was different version. I assume it was because i installed CWM. That means, we can still update the firmware without removing CWM?

eg. SpeedMOD, FuguMOD, etc.

which one do you prefer for the JV6?

Just want to know you opinion :P

Today's GB rom is smooth enough, no lagfix is needed.

If you need ext4, the famous Voodoo or Speedmod also is the solution for you.

[Verizon Droid Charge] Grizzld:
Would it be possible, or is there any way, to make the backlights on the Menu, Home, Back and Search buttons act as notification / status lights?

A similar modification was made to the Palm Pre Plus to make up for the lack of a dedicated notification led. It seems reasonable that some talented dev out there could make this work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Possible, yes, we did the same thing for the SGS phones with BLN. However, I don't know how useful it would be as I can't see the lights on the buttons unless it's dark out. It is something I'd like to look into, but it's on a long list of things to do.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Grizzld:
Good point, and you're probably right. I didn't even realize those keys had a backlight until I had had the phone for a few days. Thanks for the reply!
[Verizon Droid Charge] erasmogjr:
Not sure if this is just me but my backlights for the bottom keys dont turn.on unless its dark and i dont have auto brightness onthat might be why you dont notice them unless its dark.

Hello every one

Finally my tablet will be arrive tomorrow morning and i am so happy and excited to be an iconia user by joining this community :):D:cool:

But How to make this tablet even better by upgrading it .

P.S. (i am not an expert in android stuff yet ) :o
[Acer Iconia A500] Fluffbutt:
I can't see a lot that needs to be done to it.

Maybe a screen protector if you want, a bluetooth keyboard, a case or bag to protect it.

And a 8 or 16G class 6 MicroSD card.
[Acer Iconia A500] ericm115:
If yours is anything like mine, a way yo make the screen sharp and not blurry. Some glue for the glass. Mine has been coming off since I got it, I'm returning this one, it is awful, can't be live my glass if loosening and the screen is blurry.
[Acer Iconia A500] MJ-12:
The only true way to improve this tablet:

Root and bootloader unlocked, then it can be overclocked and totally personalized/improved by the devs here at xda, (xoom and transformer already overclocked and running at a smooth 1.5gh) shhh my £200 advent vega tab beats the iconia hands down on quadrant and smartbench 2011 speed tests!!!

I really wish people would a- provide useful information that the op asked for or b- STFU. Providing a crap answer like this does nothing helpful for the op.
[Acer Iconia A500] blazingwolf:
My suggestion. Play with your tablet for a day or two and see what it is like. If you find things that you would like to change on your tablet that need root then you can add the root hack to accomplish them.

Take time to read the threads here and learn how to do things before trying them and before asking questions that have already been asked. There is a wealth of information here that can easily be found by reading.

Good luck with your new toy and enjoy it. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] MJ-12:
Yeah I see what you mean.

Silly me to think that a faster, smoother, recoverable, personalized, ability to use root req apps would improve the Iconia. LOL

No really. You honestly believe this would not improve the Iconia? That is totally weird.
[Acer Iconia A500] blazingwolf:
Here is my last reply to you. The OP is new to this tablet. He is asking what he can do to this to make it work nicely for him/her. Can he unlock the bootloader? No. Can he replace the Kernel? No. Just because you want this stuff, and by the way quadrant benchmarks are crap, doesn't mean the op does. Provide some good info that can actually be accomplished. There are a bunch of other threads that you can spam and whine about not being able to do what you want.

" Advent Vega with its Tegra 2 innards and £199 ($326) asking price. You may take issue with its outdated OS, but thankfully a couple of hackers have replaced the Vega's antiquated Android 2.2 with a heaping helping of Honeycomb. It's currently an alpha release, so while widgets and apps are working well, camera capabilities, screen rotation, web-surfing on WiFi, and most everything else is currently off limits. There's still plenty of work to be done"
[Acer Iconia A500] MJ-12:
Hi Fluffbutt,

As my signature below, I currently have this honeycomb on the vega. And wifi internet is sweeeeet :) btw.

But please note this is not about the vega, I just use it as reference that it is faster in smartbench 2011

I cannot wait to see what the Iconia will be able to do, and how much faster and smoother the user experience will be when it gets opened up as it should be unlocked and kernel source supplied (android not apple anyone?) and the superb devs here get to work on it.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:

Just my two pennies.Try using it for a few days or so without putting much on it.from the complaints in the forums about a few of the issues I do really wonder if there are some really rouge not quite ready for honeycomb apps out there.so with that said testing apps is a must

Never install more then one at a time

Run each forbanday or so tobsee how its effecting your tab

Then if you have a big issue you will know the app causing it most likely

Enjoy your new tablet.its not as much fun and useful as a new pair of heels and matching skirt. But my tab Rocks

I recently got the rooted gingerbread update to my X well thought it would be sweet to get a rom for it. Tried to install it well went through fine, but when I tried to reboot it got stuck on the M logo and tried wiping data and cache, yet nothing seems to fix it. Any help would be great not used to the X as my main phone is the TB.

(also sorry I did checking of how to fix but didn't quite follow how to use I see I need rsdlite and full VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.sbf is there any other files I will be needing?)

While reading RSD lite is windows ran correct?
[Droid X General] BrownEye02:
So im kind of in the same boat you are. I am unable to flash liberty 1.5 because it gets stuck on the boot screen.

First off can you get into recovery?

If yes did you back up your original rom before trying to flash the new one?

If yes the best way I found to flash a backup is to do: wipe data/factory reset, wipe catch partition, then under mounts and storage format: system, data, catch. Then try installing your backup.

If you have no for any of these tell me and I might know a way around them. Like I said im in the same boat and have dealt with some of the stuff your experiencing.
[Droid X General] Boomwaller:
Unfortunately I cant get into the recovery it seems to be broken I can only get into the stock bootloader I believe the blue one where you can update clear cache and wipe data. Wish I could get into recovery would be cake walk then.

Sounds like you both need to sbf. There are stickies at the top of this forum with instructions for Windows and Linux.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] 3tybagig:
I wonder if we could could come to an understanding on language use for this device.

SDCARD = /SDCARD but is actually internal. On other devices it is of coarse external. This of coarse creates some confusion when making comon statements like "place file in root of sd"

I'm sure Asus has some reason for doing things this way. Though it seems backward to me.

Could we agree to call /SDCARD as SDI

And to call /Removable as SDE

If someone has a better idea feel free.

Regards

Ty.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
I think SDI and SDE are more confusing, as in most Linux distros the SATA hard disks are labeled as sda, sdb, etc. The current naming scheme is fine as is, with removable storage available in the clearly marked "Removable" folder that gets created.

The reason for the distinction between the "sd card" and the rest of the internal storage is so that you can still read and modify the contents, because unless you root the device, the default permissions are set up so that the regular user cannot modify vital system components on the internal storage. This is has been the standard since the days of the G1, where with such little internal storage the intention was that the user would never have the ability to mess with it and risk breaking or overfilling it, and instead all of their personal data would reside on the removable SD card. Today's Android devices now possess enough storage to safely store user data internally, but the main principle remains the same, and therefore the nomenclature remains unchanged. Renaming the folder would probably break a lot of applications that depend on the ability to store data to /sdcard, so it's best not to touch it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
i guess a newbie wouldn't always get it, but the use of the nouns "sd" and "sdcard" will always refer to the external sdcard, specifically /Removable/microsd. whenever anyone wants to refer to internal storage, they would refer to it by path /sdcard exactly.

but you're right. a newbie reading it wouldn't always get it.

I don't need a signature.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] foxmeister:
Totally agree - if someone tells me to put something on the SD card, to me that means unequivocally the physical SD card, not internal memory.

Regards,

Dave
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 3tybagig:
Great feedback. I apreciate the clarification.

I didn't want to suggest changing the code or any other part of android. Just the reference.

When i see comments in posts that read put this file in root of sd i am left with unnecessary ambiguity. First thought would be put it on the external but after looking at possible options i quickly see there is also a location on this device called /sdcard . Ambiguous

So all i am saying is when it comes to this device, if we want to suggest putting files in root of sd we specify the location in a non ambiguous manner

IE: put file in root of sd (SDE)

Or

Put file in root of sd (/externl)

I've got 5 bucks that says 99% of people who buy this device are more noob than I.

That's all.

Ty
[Eee Pad Transformer General] earlyberd:
If someone is writing a tutorial where you would need to store files on external storage, I can't think of many instances where it would make a difference where you put the files, so long as you yourself can remember where they went. For instance, if you're told to put a .apk file on a SD card for installation later, the OS won't care where you put it, you just have to know where it is when you're looking for it later to install. The instances where it does matter whether you're storing data to /sdcard or /Removable are almost always when dealing with applications that need an extra folder outside of the internal storage for additional data, mostly for maintaining compatibility with older Android devices. Everything else like photos, videos, music, etc. can be stored anywhere within /sdcard or /Removable, and the OS can read it just the same.

When writing tutorials, you just have to be sure to make the distinction between /sdcard and /Removable, because that's a set of folders that any newbie will see and recognize when browsing through the Android file system. Simply referring to them as the internal SD and external SD can be confusing too, since that's not how they appear in the file manager. At work when troubleshooting issues with Windows 7, I deal with users every day that get tripped up if I ask them to open the Start menu or an Explorer window, because neither of them are labeled as Start or Explorer. Instead, for the Start menu I have to tell them to click on the blue orb in the lower left hand corner, and for Explorer I have to tell them to single click on Computer in the Start menu, or double click on the Computer icon on the desktop. Newbies don't know the OS, which means they don't know anything except what they can see on the screen. Anybody trying to write for newbies should always write tutorials based completely on how things appear exactly on the screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
The joys of UNIX filesystem. It is different from windows. No need to tie thing down to physical location concepts such as disks (c:, d: , ????). I suspect if one is rooted they could alias the /sdcard to internalMemory or /InTablet.
