[HTC Sensation] fallenangel408:
can confirm this mainly on the weather lock but...i notice the lock randomly hard to unlock, have to do same and swipe a few times but everything else is snappy
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
Unable to duplicate. Have been using weather lock exclusively. Could be your selection of shortcuts?
[HTC Sensation] djdant:
I actually just seen a video on YouTube where the person had the issue you just spoke of.
[HTC Sensation] cjm1979:
Ive had this only on the weather lockcreen and only when ive replied to an Handcent message popup while the phone is locked. Like someone else posted if you pull up from where it should be it works but only a reboot sorts it.
[HTC Sensation] cjm1979:
If its software what will getting it replaced solve?
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
Is anyone else seeing this problem? I don't get any notifications when someone posts on my wall or anything.
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
i noticed that also but then i checked under sync and it was set to ONCE A DAY
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
Yeah but on my wife's epic its instant. Also sync is not push, so the sync time has nothing to do with the notifications. In fact the sync time is just for the news feed
[HTC EVO 3D] jxr94:
Touch wiz and Sense aren't the same, so touchwiz might have push facebook notifications. Do you have the facebook market app installed?
[HTC EVO 3D] ktrotter11:
u need the facebook for android app, the built in fb for sense just updates friend stream and contacts
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Facebook app + notifications = fail. They don't work half the time.. Google it. Very very common problem..
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
It always works on my widest phone the epic and its just the app that does it. I have the app and have all my settings on Facebook.com and my EVO the same as hers. Still it does not work yet it always works on hers.
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
once i installed the facebook app from the market i started getting my notifications again
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
I installed the app from the market and I am not getting them. Weird time to uninstall and try again
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
Do you have Facebook for sense active too? I didn't activate it cause I hated the way it sync'd on my EVO 4G
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
yes facebook and facebook for htc sense are both on sync
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
What are your setting for what all is sync'ed cause mine still isn't instant

Also are your notifications instant?
[HTC EVO 3D] ktrotter11:
Well like stated above you usually never get the push notifications on time anyways
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
friendcaster > facebook app
[HTC EVO 3D] Spiderman313:
Widest =wife lol funny typo, lol!
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
Facebook for HTC Sense feeds all 3 are checked and i have it set to update once a day

Facebook, just has one check box no other settings.

I'm getting all my notifications and messages almost immediately
[HTC EVO 3D] gearjunkeez:
Agreed. Friendcaster is much better. Notifcations pop up, can tag photos, etc...
[HTC EVO 3D] cmucooper:
King Ty so much for your help can I ask one more thing of you? What are you notification settings inside the Facebook app? Thx again
[HTC EVO 3D] vulcZ:
I was about to make a new thread until I saw this.

Anyone else really upset that there's no fix to this? The Facebook app is absolute garbage without push notifications. What gets me is that the app was SUPPOSED to support it a while ago, but it clearly doesn't work and Facebook doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. Funny, because the Google+ app handles push notifications perfectly ;)

I've done a lot of research and it honestly seems as though MOST people don't know what exactly push notifications are. You read a lot of 'well I get them almost right away" or 'I get them almost instantly'. Haha with push you're supposed to get them immediately, no questions asked :) You shouldn't have to wait for your phone, or the app to sync with Facebook's servers. Facebook servers tell your phone immediately as soon as there's a change.

There has to be something we can do to fix this. Sorry I'm just really bothered by it LOL :)
[HTC EVO 3D] flexte:
I have the Evo 4g and i no longer get push notifications. I though it had something to do with my Facebook account but recently purchases a htc amaze and sg2 and both of those phone received instant notifications. I since returned both so now i am stuck with no or very late notifications.
[HTC EVO 3D] demo27vol1:
Have you guys tried the BlackBerry trick? It worked for me for about a month but then it just stopped. Some people tell me it works better if you have your Facebook using your gmail. I have my Facebook using my Yahoo email so that might be the cause, but the app is garbage anyways.
[HTC EVO 3D] jdfrye:
When I just got my phone about 1 month ago the FB push worked fine for like 2 weeks ..then I installed Juice defender (which I found out later evo 3d's dont need this) and the push stopped working. I pulled my hair out why this stopped working. I uninstalled the juice and rebooted and still no pushes. So i called up a blackberry buddy and he logged in my account and enabled push notifications and this didnt do it either...as far as I know it didnt. cause about 2 days later I did my first reboot after the blackberry trick they started coming and still are working. I think the reboot after the blackberry trick might have worked..not sayin for sure.

Also not sayin it was the Juice defender but it did stop workin after I installed that app.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Yeah, I hear the blackberry trick works but haven't tried it yet. For whatever reason facebook doesn't recognize android as supporting push notifications. I don't get why but it's on fb's end.
[HTC EVO 3D] ssettor:
i do the bb trick n it work fine..

but still no notification for post on page..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowdaksport:
Ok I have searched and not found anything like this yet so I am going to ask. I know the phone has battery problems all around for a lot of people. Mine seems to be fine when it is on. It can sit and idle powered on all day locked and stay at full charge. It runs about 10 hours with minimal use and maybe 8 hours with some data use and a few calls and texts. Now I am experiencing a wired problem. When I go to work we cannot have cell phones. I leave my phone in my locker and power it off. After my 12 hour shift is up at work I come back to the phone with a dead battery? What could be causing this? And has anyone else noticed this issue?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
defective battery? pull the battery and see if it still does it. If it does, gotta be a defective battery.. if it doesn't do it when pulled, you're not shutting off the phone maybe?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowdaksport:
Yesterday I tried leaving the battery out. I took the battery out and let it sit 12 hours and it still had full charge when I put it back in. When I go to work I long press on the power/lock button and choose Power off then I watch it shut down and it just dies before I come back. I wish I could watch it the whole time. Today I left the phone off for around 6 hours and came back and it was fine though. Maybe it gets turned on some how at work. I have no idea. Or when I go to power it on it is just the issue where the phone isn't reading battery % correctly and it just says 0%
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
Seems like a battery driver issue or a defective battery? definitely call t-mobile and check if it's the battery. I've had some issues as well, but not that bad.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Weird.

So the phone powers off after you turn the screen on and it won't come back on? Try putting the phone in airplane mode.

Also, I'm assuming you are running the stock roms?

Might also want to check into a battery monitor to see if any 1 thing is pulling it down.

I think it might just be the battery driver. Sounds like the phone is in suspend so it doesn't power off properly until the screen is turned on and is revived, updating the battery % status, seeing 0%, and turning off.

CM7 fixed the wonky battery issue a few nights ago. Right now, I think a current CM based rom is the best bet as it has most of the drivers fixed. I'ved used mine pretty heavily today, unplugged at 8am and I just got a 15% battery warning at 11:30pm. It will usually last until I go to bed at midnight but I might want to play with it some more.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] maxspiderx:
My Optimus T auto shuts off around the 36th hour mark after each recharge. When I turn it back, the phone usually has about 30-60% battery left. What gives?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dislplin01:
there are other threads for this you should of searched the site first before posting this, anyway yes it is a bug in the stock ROM i used to have it and i have had three of these phones, they all did it, the only thing that worked for me was i installed a new ROM and got a new SD card cause i think it has something to do with the sd card as well but like i said if you search the threads you might find more answers
[Optimus One, P500, V General] maxspiderx:
I did searches using keywords such as "shut" and "power" and nothing has come up for me. Can you link me to some of those threads so I can see how others are doing to remedy this? Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dislplin01:
Just go look they the treads I'm not sure where they are and I don't feel like looking at all the threads like I said try bring a better as card if that doesn't work then try installing a new kernel or rom

[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
Ok so I always get my phone from Bestbuy or directly from Verizon based on online deals or specials going on when contract is up. Since when was Bestbuy pricing 700$ out of contract compared to $569 of VZ? They always when I checked with is every few months very similar in price. Now I have $300 buyback from previous upgrade done few months ago but considering locking in a second line to 4g Unlimited plan before it is too late.

So just curious did the Retail price 3rd party can sell agreement with Verizon change I was under impression to be Authorized reseller unless you were running a valid promotion, special you had to be in similar price range to Verizon?

I wouldn't be complaining normally but to have to cough up $700 for a retail price over Verizon cost of already high $569 seems way out of wack. I know the phones are 4g and high end but man didn't realize 3rd party places that were once better options now don't even try to compete with Big Reds pricing.

Forgive me if there was some post detailing Bestbuy cost going up or possible changes to why Verizon offers lower cost then retailers selling same phones on their behalf.
[Thunderbolt General] hackabusa:
If you raise enough hell, best buy will match the VZW price. You just have to prove that the corporate store is charging 569 outright.
[Thunderbolt General] Carl G35c:
BBY will price match VZW... Best buy inflates their retail pricing to negate customers from buying it wo a contract(that's where they make their $$)
[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
They will price match the online price or CS price cause they are not the same not a huge difference I just want to know which price to fight for? Is this generally something they are going to be pricks about I mean I have bought the phone I am going to bring back for the Buy Back Credit and purchased Black Tie Protection I can't imagine they would be to stuborn. I just want equal price and have no problem paying 569-599 at all obviously would be minus 300 GC I would get from the Buyback program.
[Thunderbolt General] hackabusa:
If you were to come into my store and ask for a price match (I work at best buy), and you planned on getting blacktie and buyback, we would match without question. Other stores may be different, but the margin would be made up with those two components.
[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
Sorry I should of been more clear on the phone I am going to trade in I had Blacktie and Buyback. This phone is to lock in 4g plan before July 7th so I would get Blacktie but no Buyback this time and previous phone is 3ish month old Fascinate. I have 2 Pc's, 2 HDTV and like 5 previous phones and everything has been with Blacktie.

I just want to know if I would be better of having proof cause I have no idea what a storefront of Verizons here has for anything showing retail price, but if I have to go out of my way to prove it. Due to BB not matching "online" prices I will cause I sure am not paying extra 125$ for same phone lol.

Really thank you all for advice so far I usually get great people when I work with Best Buy and after all Zagg shields the mobile department has put on my rounds of bad Thunderbolts they know my acount before they even pull me up as to what I have for phones ect. I just know it was like pulling teeth to get them to replace my non-fuctional Incredible after 2 seperate repairs to get a new device and had to talk to store manager before I got it done without a 3rd repair shipment.
[Thunderbolt General] Carl G35c:
Just bring it in the retail pricing from the online (I work at BBY Mobile PT as well) and Id match it
[Thunderbolt General] boristhebladexx:
find the kid who hates his job at best buy and he'll price match it without talking to a manager. i work at best buy and do it all the time.
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Word to the wise. Don't anyone ever get black tie. Its a scam.
[Thunderbolt General] iLLusive_:
I would generally agree to that last post but in my case because Best Buy has the lemon policy on repairing or attempting to fix issues. I went from Incredible that went 2.2 update came out dropped a packet and caused horrible call quality an hardware / software issues. Got me a $600 equal retail value Giftcard that put me into my Thunderbolt. Generally speaking insurance is never needed but I get it to be safe on my high end phones.

Also had to speak with a manager but the Buyback process and getting into the Charge was a painless experience and they gave it to me for $599 cause they know how much business I do there. :) Thanks for all the help.
[Galaxy S II General] coebergh:
So,

I Have been wondering this for a while and correct me if I'm wrong (did a search) and this problem wasn't on the forum yet.

When using the gallery app, the scrolling in the root of it (choosing a folder) is Really inconvenient.. When I have my finger on the screen everything seems to fine but when I release it or do a short flick with my finger (short=short trust me:-)) it looks like it sets itself to what it looks like a predefined position. I.e. The page doesn't stop scrolling where my finger released the screen, it very quickly pops to another position.

Anyone else having this weird scrolling behaviour? Only in gallery application!

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] tuhinz:
Yes i've seen it too. Quite annoying. Especially in portrait mode it seems to pan across a few more columns than is visible in the previous screen causing me to miss a few columns while scrolling!

[General Questions and Answers] GaresTaylan:
Hey everyone. I was playing some games on VBA (gameboy advance emulator) on my PC. About halfway through the game I saved the game (.sav file) and transferred it to my Xperia Play so I could continue on gameboid.

The import worked great and I was able to play while traveling. Problem is now I want to switch back to the PC and gameboid wont save my game (battery save) - it will only save using a save state.

I cant find any way to load the save state in any emulators on the PC. I read on a couple places that you couldnt battery save using the lite version of gameboid. So I checked to see if I downloaded the wrong one. Looks like I didnt - Gameboid 2.4.7. I obtained it via a QR code from the developer's site since it isnt on the marketplace anymore.

Any ideas here?
[General Questions and Answers] Ryne:
Fix

I had a similar issue using an emulator as well. It happens when you try to use a save from a different device. I found out that you need to fix the permissions if you do this. Basically it works like this:

- [Device One] You install the emulator, load a rom, and save your data.

- Copy the .sav to [Device Two] load a rom, then save OVER that .sav

- Copy the .sav BACK to [Device One] load rom, load save (works fine) but overwriting doesn't work.

when this happens you need to set the permissions of the .sav, and of the folders that contain it and it will work fine again.

Hope this helps.

There's a Factory Reset option in the settings...I did it before returning my 1st Tab (though it wasn't rooted). Would that work?
