Spoke to VZW today just to confirm about Tiered plans. I was told that if you currently have a smartphone then you are grandfathered in and that means you will continue your unlimited data even if you upgrade to a 4g phone when your eligible for an upgrade. The only way you lose your unlimited data is if you downgrade from a smartphone to a non smartphone then you will no longer have a grandfathered plan.

Unless VZW changes something down the road i am ok with the change at this time.

I would like to see them come out with a Family Shared Data plan.
[Fascinate General] mripra:
Just got my Upgrade yesterday(7/7) i know i tried to get upgraded on 7/6 but VZN told i can only do on phone but not in BEST BUY :(. Added new line. New line has a 2Gb data limit but my original line still have unlimited with 4G(Samsung charger). I'm OK with it wife don;t need more then 2gb/month anyway for steaming Pandora hehehe.

careful with that my wife streamed so much slacker radio one month that she went over the 5 GB cap they used to have on verizon. We got a nasty letter but no charges :)
[Fascinate General] jabberjaw:
Scared me there for a second, with 4 smartphones with unlimited plan that could be bad enough for me to consider jumping ship again... but like some many have said we will see what shakes out of the tree in the near future

Performance

On a scale of 1 to 10, the EVO 3D performs an 11. The 1.2 GHz dual-core processor really shines on the EVO 3D: HTC Sense is zippy, web browsing is twice as fast as the EVO 4G, and HD videos—even in 3D mode—play perfectly without any stuttering.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twylo:
I believe I dropped my Nexus One while I was drunk and damaged the AMOLED screen. This is what the damage looks like:

img.photobucket . com/albums/v332/twylo/Photoon2011-06-19at1151.jpg

(apologies, don't have enough posts)

I don't believe the digitizer is damaged because I can still feel the haptic feedback, such as when I slide the lock across and it gives a little buzz when it unlocks, home button etc. Just the screen is damaged. I'm assuming that it isn't a loose connection and that I actually broke the screen. I'm just not sure which replacement LCD to get. I know there is the original AMOLED, and then the Sony version, but am I restricted to one since I (think) have the AMOLED? I would like to stay with the original AMOLED if I could. Any help would be appreciated, need to get my phone back up and running as soon as I can!

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
from what i know, if you get it replaced by htc, it will probably be a slcd screen as samsung is churning out s/amoled as fast as they can and not everybody is on the priority list. slcd is supposedly better on battery life but still can't match the blacks/contrast of the amoled screen.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjarnia:
I'm in the same boat here. Figured I'd just post in the same thread since it looks like we have the exact same problem.

This is my phone now:

:(

The touch screen works and the glass is not cracked the glass is cracked, I can tell if the phone is off and look carefully.

I can still see parts of the image. I'm looking on ebay for parts but I'm not really sure what's what.

Does anyone know how long it will take and how much it will cost to get it repaired by HTC? Will they only do it if it's under warranty?

My phone is the ATT model too which complicates things, some auctions on ebay mention a difference between models.
[Xoom General] Legacy2385:
I've done my best at a review, and here's the result. Also here's a link to the site in case you want higher res screenshots or see any of my other work. LINK

The Motorola XOOM, it's the original Honeycomb tablet and, to me, still the best. But that's a discussion for another day. Today I'll be giving the first ROM for the Xoom a thorough walk-through. It's Team Tiamat's Xoom ROM 1.0, some of the features include Tiamat's kernel version 1.4.4 with the cpu clocked at a staggering 1.7Ghz, Desktop UA string and CRT Screen Off Animations.

First off since Google hasn't released Honeycomb's code (yet?) you won't see anything too extreme in this ROM outside of the overclock, which if you missed it before is at a whopping 1.7Ghz per core, (and there's two of them...lol). As far as the installion goes it's pretty straight forward you can head over to XDA for the full instructions. But all you have to do is make sure you're rooted, unlocked and have CWM installed, you can then grab all the necessary files and flash as you would any other ROM.

One feature included in this ROM that I love is the battery percentage in the notification bar, which you can see in the screenshot above. (By the way shout out to Fahrbot Mobile for making Screenshot ER which is the app I use to take all of the screenshots you see here) For those not familiar with Tiamat's kernel I want you to know that it does more than just turn your Xoom into a speed demon. It also adds SD card support, no thanks to guys at Moto, the ability to overclock the GPU, USB tethering and USB mass storage mode. The ROM also supports themes, like the one I have (BigDX Xoom|Zoom Theme).

Outside of the changes I mentioned above the ROM is pretty straightforward, it doesn't add too many additional apps only Quickboot, Estrongs File Explorer, and the Flash Player that allows you to watch Hulu. Other than that it's completely deodexed, zip aligned and adds the cool CRT Screen Off Animation thats found on the Nexus S. The Desktop UA string mod which allows you to see full sites instead of mobile in the stock browser and lastly it's got USB Mass Storage enabled so you can plug USB flash drives into your Xoom.

Now I want to give you my personal opinion on a few things about this ROM, one is that the battery life is phenomenal. I didn't think the Xoom's battery life could get any better but alas it did and I couldn't be happier. I also love how fast and smooth it is, BRD has taken a good thing and made it even better, launching apps and swiping from screen to screen is near instant. All in all, if you've got Honeycomb v3.1 installed on your Xoom this is the ROM to try, it's fast, has rock solid stability and excellent battery life. Team Tiamat's Xoom ROM has some great features included and makes an already stellar device that much better.

K guys that's my review, any feedback is appreciated. Also if you have any questions about the ROM feel free to ask and I'll try to answer for you guys.

[Xoom General] Legacy2385:

So is Tiamat xoom 1.4.4 a different ROM? How come you have focussed on 1.0?

Sounds very tempting anyway.
[Xoom General] Legacy2385:
No, there's only one ROM right now. What you're looking at is the kernel. And that Kernel is included in the ROM. :D

Disable ad blocker

Does any one know if there is a built in ad blocker in tiamat. I am on tiamat 1.1 and i am trying to enable ads due to an old issue with medscape and updates that are unsuccessful due to adblockers.

I stopped and force closed every ad block program , stopped their super user access and i still cant get ads again on my xoom .

Thank you in advance
[Xoom General] Legacy2385:
Thats a very good question, I haven't made the jump to 1.1 yet so I haven't run into that problem.

This should of been posted as a question in the Q&A section, or on the rom thread but I'm going to answer you question anyway.

No, the rom doesn't contain any ad blockers.

Is there any way to get the Sense 3.0 lockscreen on vanilla android?

I love the lock screen, but sometimes Sense is a bit too much. If I could have a phone with CM7 on it, and the Sense 3.0 lockscreen, it would be perfect.. any ideas?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
The actual Sense lockscreen will never work on a non-Sense ROM because, like all Sense components, it needs the proprietary Sense framework. It is possible that a third-party "clone" will be developed, but it would have to be posted on a forum somewhere because most Sense clone software isn't allowed in the Market (like the original Beautiful Widgets and first version of Fancy Widget).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninogui:
Hello

so these are my 2 daily questions..

Has anyone tracked down a XP CSC already ? I am located in portugal and just for the sake of location I would like to grab one, but still could´nt find any

regarding the GPS

I used an oldie tomtom one V2 for a long time (and still use it) and tomtom home application had almost on a daily basis a gpsfix to correct for satellite deviation and/or precise location. I know mobile phone navigation do not use that (unfortunately) because probably mobile networks compensate for this by taking advantage of 3G data for location, but.. I notice my GPS locking times are always far too higher than the tomtom (was almost instant, even an oldie)

So, is there a file that can be edited, or fine tuned for quicker GPS location regarding my portuguese locale?

or

Should in fact the CSC file also contain this (again only XP would, so I get back to my first question again?)

thks in advance

I'm using a Milestone with CyanogenMod 7.1.0 by nadlabak and lense lockscreen style like in attachment.

Now i want to change the clock and date color, because black is unreadable on a dark lense. To change the the color in keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml doesn't work but this xml is in use. I don't know why, if i add a text in this xml, it's shown on lockscreen, but the time/ date color will not change.

I found Lockscreen.smali in android.policy.jar but don't know where i have to change the text for another color and to add the custom messages like in SlidingTab Lockscreen. If it's possible i want the lense style with the standard lockscreen messages for battery charging, alarm and maybe carrier.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Legacy2385:
Here's my take on a case I picked up for my Inc 2. Feel free to leave me any feedback you have or ask any questions. Here's the site for higher res shots. LINK

When it comes to a case for my smartphone I’m pretty picky, however, the Gloss Black TPU Cover Skin for the HTC Droid Incredible 2 is hands down my favorite. It offers style and protection without breaking the bank which is a major plus for me.

The case is not made of the same material as your typical silicon case so you don’t have to worry about it stretching after time and not fitting your phone as snug as it did on day 1. It’s made out of a material called Thermoplastic polyurethane, which is why it won’t stretch like typical silicon cases but still offers incredible (see what I did there?) shock absorption and abrasion resistance.

It has cutouts for all the buttons and ports with the exception of the volume rocker. Some say it’s a little difficult to adjust the volume but I haven’t had a problem with it. On the interior of the case it has a slick looking argyle pattern, I think this was a way to make two versions of the same case while saving money on materials. I think that’s pretty damn smart and I actually like the pattern on the inside (kinda reminds me of the bright red coloring under the battery cover of the OG Inc).

All in all, this is my favorite case for this phone to date. You can pick it up on Ebay or Amazon and there are more pics after the jump.

It'll take too long for me to post all the pics so check the site if you want to see them all. Thanks. LINK

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dsh897:
Okay this has been address. please search but ill answer for you.

This device uses 5v 2a to charge. Hence the wall unit. you computer is 5v 1a or 1.5a (its not enough)

The device will maintain and in some cases when screen off slowly charge when plugged into computer or usb adaptor with the red "x" through it.

you can find a usb adapter cable which has a switch to allow you to charge while connected to a computer. its a data and charge switch. search for it. i think its on ebay.

also you can find on amazon or google shopping wall chargers for the p1000 which work for like 8$

Having this Y-cable will also help with the fact that the USB cable that came with the tablet is so sort. I have a lot of 5V power supplies around but they are all from 50ma to 1a. Can't believe this thing needs to much power to charge, I would think that 1a would be enough just to maintain it when in use.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ericlmccormick:
The red x will show up if you are charging with anything under 2A. If I remember correctly usb 1 puts out 100ma and usb 2 & 3 put out 500ma. Even with a Y adapter you will only get 1A. If the screen is off then you will charge the battery however with the screen on, you are using the same amount of power that the usb is providing. Therefore the x because the battery is not charging.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RaindancerAU:
With the adapter I posted about above, I never see the red x and I am charging off USB 2.

-EDIT-

To be clear, I am using a 10.1v not a 10.1 - there could be differences, but I doubt it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ericlmccormick:
Looks like I was wrong before. I tested out some other power supplies I had around and they don't work. One is even rated at 2.5 amps!

I don't have the resistors to reproduce my findings but found that there is a residence of 8.28k ohms between ground and both d+ and d-. 8.43k ohms between 5v and both d+ and d-. 0.7 ohms between d+ and d-.

I expect that in these adapters that there are two(or more) resisters and a diode.

Don't know why samsung felt they had to do this. This is one of this **** moves that will made me question future purchases of samsung products. Same reason I don't buy sony our motorola.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RaindancerAU:
Please see my previous replies - the Galaxy Tab, seemingly in all its flavours looks for a pin arrangement in the USB cable being swapped and does not detect the amperage at all.

There is a small inexpensive adapter that I posted about in the previous page (well I link to the posts where I wrote about it) and with this adapter I have been able to use any USB slot to power my 10.1v :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ericlmccormick:
Are you able to explain exactly what your adapter is doing?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RaindancerAU:
I did in the link that I posted in my previous reply, but here is a summary;

It has a switch that changes the pin arrangement. With certain pins swapped around, the device goes into charging mode. If the pins are left "straight" the device stay in data mode and will not charge.

This is not dissimiliar to the way you can change a network cable into a "crossover" cable by swapping two wires around. The Samsung branded chargers have the pins already swapped around and thus will trigger the device to charge every time.

Please do follow the link to my other post.
