I love it and dont need 4g and wont get it here for years

If your not in 4g area and want a phone better than all the 4g phones get this one. i love this phone i had thunderbolt for a bit but it sucked it lagged like a Mother Trucker. I hate that the bootloader is locked cuz i love stock roms but o well ill live i have launcher pro plus running on mine with it rooted and ALOT of stuff FROZEN it makes it way faster and runs really smooth. i have heard alot of ppl complain about how much launcher pro sucks on this device but it think it works great i may have it have to reload widgets and such 1 out of a 100 times win i hit the home button but prob more like 1 out of 250. also i have used golauncher but i had a few problems with it stock blur actually works decent to but i dont like the look of it and i love 3d app drawer. i cant say ull love the phone but i know i do its by far best phone on verizon. Now if i could get a nexus on verizon id b the happiest man alive but o well i cant so ill have to live with my dx2 until they get a nexus or until another carrier can get service in southern il.

[EVO 4G General] droiddawg:
Got mine last week @ best buy for 100
[EVO 4G General] cranbiz:
Didn't know about Best Buy for $100 until today.

My wife got hers last week for $199, wouldn't you know, they lowered the price. I just got off the phone with Sprint and they credited my account the $50.

Of course, if they hadn't, I would have had her return it as "I didn't like it" under Sprints 30 Day guarantee and then gone to Best Buy. She doesn't need 3D and its easier to maintain 2 identical phones.
[EVO 4G General] waltah!:
Best Buy's website has it at $49.99 when I just checked. My NS4G is going back along with the $100 going back in my wallet. I'm within my initial 30 days and this is my second NS4G and the radio still sucks. I didn't want to go with a yr old phone, but it performs great and just got the official GB update so it's still well supported by HTC and Sprint. White Evo 4G will be in my pocket tomorrow.

LMAO..actually had to pause...go back..and double check my groggy eyes myself!

Just called to confirm (since my son wants a phone) and from what they said on the phone...I can add another EVO to my plan for the $50 bones as well. Obviously an additional $20/line fee and the GOT A HAVE IT $10 ale cart crap fee applies, but better than any other smart phone out there for the price! Going to Breast Buy tomorrow!

3D must be on the trucks to offload soon eh?
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Lol my nickname for such a great store :D Wonder if you gave it the motor boat if they would give you a bigger discount :o

Lmao ya I know what you mean tho my wife would kill me lol more then happy to just motor boat away with her lol I might not get a discount from Breast Buy but always a great meal from my lovely wife . :D

Ya...glad I waited and put off his....Dad, I really need a phone so I can call you when I'm with...well you know the rest LOL. Besides, I'm thinking Hya, no more 'can I talk with...' SOLD!

Almost got him an LG the other day with basic android and no support here, can't wait to finish work and go get another one for ME...no wait..my son. Won't have to wait on Sprint to send me my replacement this week...LOL
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Lol I bet he will love the new phone. I was using a crappy clam shell bought this and never will go back. Lmao ya another good reason no more using dads phone.
[EVO 4G General] dpilcher:
Done Done and Done....

Went by the local BB this morning and picked one up for him @ $50 was in and out within 15 minutes. Told the guy..."No need to take any more of your time...I'll activate it myself". There were a couple phones having the activation and UPDATE done..

Activated and now rooted..good times.

Went to Sprint to check on my replacement of the replacement EVO (BAD screen) they replaced last Friday..no go and phone calls to customer service etc have yet to get me a NIB phone..will deal with that. Guess I was a little frustrated..on the way out I saw three couples looking at the EVO and proceeded to exclaim..."Might want to go across the street to BB and get yours for $50 instead". Probably should have just kept quiet, but felt better as two of the three followed me out the store.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Sweet how did u get it for fifty did u have to motor boat :D
[EVO 4G General] dpilcher:

[Flipout and Charm General] chaos_xie:
Is there any project porting Defy Bootmenu to Flipout? I can help. I have very little knowledge on android boot process, so I cannot start a project myself.

It is said, the Defy Bootmenu modifies System/bin/logwrapper, which is called in the init process of the phone, so that 2nd init is called and then CM is loaded by 2nd init.

It sounds like a pretty solid bypass for currently locked bootloader. I tried to install bootmenu on my flipout, succeeded, but I got no way to activate bootmenu option (on Defy, the user needs to press volume down when blue LED lits up during moto splashscreen). Maybe simple reverse engineering works by changing the keycode?!

Hi guys. I have a wifi Xoom from a friend that I was rooting and stuff. I installed Tiamap kernel, 3g build.prop, permanet desktop UA string, modified wpa_supplicant file to allow adhoc conection and cant remember rmember anything more.

I have to do a factory reset before giving it back to him. Does EVERYTHING I did goes back to stock?

Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
Factory reset, as far as I know, will remove all your personal data and user apps. It will not change your ROM or kernel, it will not remove any system apps (just the settings), it will not unroot or relock your Xoom.

I am not sure if it will remove the UA string mod and wpa supplicant hack or not.

I used to have this problem. But once I have "properly" attached the back cover, the noise is gone.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarbonX13:
I've had a bit of issues, but it seems to be that the back cover doesn't quite fit tightly with the body of the phone. I just moved it around, pressing it here and there, and the squeaking is now at a minimum level.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vu2ikl:
arc cover

this is one of the reason i am in a fix..

i dont like to put cover to my phone. currently using x10 and there is no problem whatsoever.

it doesn't slip from hand, there arent any finger prints, smudges etc. etc.

how is your experience of arc without cover? ok.. i know now it sweaks. :D

apart from that.. i heard from some user that it slips from hand, its plastic is not that tough and will get marks on it easily.. is it true?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsVA:
I had this problem on my Misty Silver phone at the middle edge of the battery cover I think towards only one side. But I think that is because I applied the full body protector on the battery cover too hard to get it perfect. The sound reduced overtime especially, after I removed the cover and fitted it carefully.

Currently, I still haven't applied any protector to my Midnight Blue Arc and hear to squeaky sounds.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vu2ikl:
Thanks kitsva :)

So you have removed the full body cover of silver? And it doesn't squeak.. reassuring :D

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murrayalex:
My Arc has a creaky battery cover, it is okay at the top end where the headphone socket is but the bottom left and right corners and near the battery had some definite "give". I solved the problem by getting a heat resistant thick tape from Homebase and sticking a couple of strips inside the battery cover. Now it is solid as a rock...what a difference.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disasterpiece07:

Could you please specify bit more about that heat resistant thick tape?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] somevietguy:
yea, please clarify i also want to try this solution
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murrayalex:
It's just your typical bog standard tape you can pick up in any DIY store that claims to be heat resistant. I thought heat resistant would be better as I have a bit on the inside back cover that lies above the battery but it probably doesn't have to be at all, just get a nice thick tape. Worked a treat, I have a super un-squeaky back cover now!!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jorgensen:
I have just got the Arc, and after a couple of days I had had enough of the squeaking. I then placed two strips (3 cm x 10 cm) of duct tape on the inside of the back cover, and it worked wonders! No more squeaking.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
So I have a makeshift dock I use with my I2. Because of the location of the charging port, if I want to have my device in landscape position and have it plugged in, I have to turn it to the right instead of left. However, I've not seen a video player yet that supports this, they only play in the landscape view turned to the left, so it plays upside down in the position that allows me to charge.

Anyone found an app or a configuration that lets this work the way I want it to? The default player and doubletwist both don't work for me for this, and I'm suspecting I'm SOL on this.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] thenickisme:
As far as I could tell from some searching you are probably out of luck on this one.

I wasn't able to find any apps that did this, and from what I found the OS is responsible for locking that down.

I even checked the app "Tasker" and couldn't find any options giving you that function.

You might just want to use a different dock, or rebuild yours to work the other way.

Not saying it's impossible though...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nimdae:
I have a sort of solution but I'm not happy with it...I think I'm just going to deal with it and wait until a real dock is released.

[Q] How to code a "Really quit?" question when user press Back/Home buttons ?

Hello,

I am a noob ANDROID developer.

(I have a simple problem, I searched the forums and didn't found a solution.)

I am developing a strategy game/wargame on Android.

I am looking for a way to code a "really quit?" routine when the user press the back/home buttons.

(if that happens by mistake now, the whole app starts from scratch on restart)

I've seen tons of code examples, but not for this. I have only one (commercial) app that shows that exact behavior, but no access to that particular source code.

I've fiddle with the onPause(), onRestart(), onStop() , onDestroy() methods, trying to halt the process before exiting, but only got into error messages.

Basically when "back" is pressed I loose my "game screen" instantly. I've also looked into the onBackPressed() method, but then this seems to be an issue between Android 1.5/2.x. I'd like my app to run on both platforms.

Thanks for your help in this matter.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aitorTheRed:
Mmm, as far as I know, you can also try to override the onKeyPressed (don't sure of the name, check the API) and check if the key pressed is back key. I think this is compatible with 1.X
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fifarunnerr:
http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/12/back-and-other-hard-keys-three-stories.html

Android < 2.0

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getRepeatCount() == 0) {
// do something on back.
return true;
}

return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

Android > 2.0

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
// do something on back.
return;
}

If you don't add any code, a back button press will be ignored.

Call finish() method of your running Activity to stop your application.

Deleted post (question already answered)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crazykane:
Thanks! :D

Here the "quick and dirty" way I did it: User now have to press Back twice to get out!

===

int backPressed=0;

@Override

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event){

if(keyCode==KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getRepeatCount()==0){

backPressed++;

}

if(backPressed>1){

return super.onKeyDown(keyCode,event);

}

}

return false;

}

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidmullin:
I've got a Samsung Focus, and I want to add a 16gb SD card to it. Everything that I see makes it clear that not all cards will work.

The Microsoft site says that you should only used "Windows Phone 7 Certified" cards, and I've only been able to find a single 8gb card that claims to be "Windows Phone 7 Certified".

AT&T will happily sell a 16gb card as "for the Samsung Focus", but they can't promise that it will actually work, and won't cover the phone if it is damanged by using it.

The Samsung site says "we've tested with up to 32gb", but doesn't give any indication of the exact make/model of the card.

I've looked at threads on this site (and others), and for every post that I find that says "I tried this or that card, and it seemed to work", I find another post that says "I tried that same card, and it worked until I exceeded 8gb, and then things sucked".

Nowhere can I find an unambiguous, informed claim that a given 16gb card will work.

I have seen posts saying things to the effect of "I'm going to have to get a bunch of cards and do some analysis and put together a faq", but I have not seen any conclusions yet.

So, what I'm asking is: does anyone know of a specific make/model of 16gb SD card that they are certain will work without damaging the phone or trashing performance?

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy 3 General] Thom47:
What ROM are you using? If It's a custom ROM it probably has sdcardspeedreadingfix which has a bug that causes struttering on videos. You could try this:

1. Download SD speed boost

2. Open it

- If "current value" is at 128, you do not have sdcard speed fix enabled, and this isn't the reason why flv videos lag for you.

- If it is at anything else eg. 2048 (default) then it is enabled. Move the slider to the minimum value, which is at 128

Now you said that you have no lag in other videos so this probably isn't it but you could give it a shot.

If it worked, give thanks to the guy who uploaded the apk for sd card speed boost
[Galaxy 3 General] pm10a:
I 've install the apk. Selected value 128

current value 128.
[Galaxy 3 General] Thom47:
Then It's not that. Probably It's just that our phone can't play flv:s well, as we have no support for flash player.

You could convert your flv videos to some other format.

So I just installed das bamf stripped 1.7 and I really like it, however there are a few things I would like to tweak. First, is there a way to change the color of say the loading bar for the internet? It is the stock green color right now. Normally one would just go to personalize and then change the "scene". This would also change the icon press color. I want to go with a blue color I think. Secondly, is there a way to get some of the HTC widgets back? I liked the full screen calendar which is still an app, but no longer in the widget section. Couldn't find it in the market either.

Thanks for the replies,
