[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] adamandro12:
I got my Tab yesterday. Used it then set it charging overnight. Won't power on this morning. The back does get warm though. I tried holding down the power button for at least a minute and also tried the 15 then 7 approach. Nothing.

I also tried an idea from a different forum (referencing a Froyo glitch) and tried touching the screen while holding the power button.

Does this sound like a hardware fail?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gislihar:
I had the same problem. Held the power button for 15 seconds and then 7 and nothing happened. Held the power button for a long time. What do I do next?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] texasmojo:
Mine didnt turn on today. Tried the 15 second press procedure and nothing happened. I grabbed my wall charger and plugged it in and left it sitting there for a minute. I tried the 15 second procedure again and this time the screen lit up and was showing that the battery was charging because it was in red. After about a minute the tab booted itself and all is normal now. I guess my battery went dead since i hadnt charged it and completley turned off my tab. Thats why it rebooted itself. Nothing to worry about.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ghislandi:
happened to me too

looks like there is a glitch ... mine was left charging today ... and it did charge but did not want to start... i did leave it on.

I connected to PC and press Power ON + Volume Up + VOlume down all at the same time and it did seem to restart ... worried there is something wrong with it though.

I bought it in USA and Im in UK I wonder if things go wrong if Samsung UK would repair it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lost2030:
I've had it for about 9 days and have used it every single day. Last night I downloaded 2 movies onto it and everything was fine. Today it would not power on one bit! I charged it over night so the battery shouldn't have drained. I ended up fixing my problem by doing the following:

Held the power button.

At the same time, placed a finger on the screen.

Held it down for 15 seconds or more and it booted up!

Not sure why it only worked when I put my finger on the screen.

I ended up exchanging it either way just in case.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jspookss:
For some reason this keeps happening to me when I leave it to charge over night. :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lost2030:
Every night?? I charge it every night and it only happened once. Hopefully my new one is fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] riqjuan:
this also happened to me for the first time this morning from leaving it on charge overnight.

however i was able to start it by removing cable and holding power for 15secs.

what could be causing this? I hope it doesn't happen every night.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
I had this problem as well a few weeks ago. Samsung sent me a shipping label and told me to ship it back. I got it back in just under 10 days. They never did tell me what was wrong but they shipped back my original Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MrSewerPickle:
Guys,

Is this happening when you leave it booted up and charging overnight or is the unit powered off and charging?

I will say that this issue has only happened to me one time and it happened under the following conditions (Ive had a Tab sense launch day):

- Battery was at 35%.

- While booted, I plugged it in to charge overnight.

- The next day at 09:00 I attempted to use it and had to hold the power button for 15 sec to get it to boot.

So, It *might* only happen if its booted with low battery and you charge it overnight. Powering it off and charging doesnt appear to cause it at all in my case.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] riqjuan:
Yes it happened while powered on and left to charge overnight. Battery was probably around 30-40% as you said.

Still doesn't explain why it would happen regardless of the % of battery left. Hence the reason it's meant to be charging.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Croak:
I've had it happen very quickly. High level of charge, plug it in, walk off, come back, unplug, and it's dead, need the 15 second press to power back on.

Not a huge deal, but annoying. And a bit scary, since mine went into the "sleep of death" once already, took four days for the battery to drain enough to break the nvflash loop it was in.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uli71:
Is it possible you changed your HD's taskbar by using third party app?

I have never seen a battery and date indicator like yours on officila ROMs.

Maybe you should place your question in the thread you got your taskbar from.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC_FUZE:
Nope, this is a software call BattClock and has nothing to do with 3G icon because 3G icon is missing before I install it. Anyway, I fixed myself, I replaced phcanOverbmp.dll and now the icon is back.

I noticed vendetta online has terrible reviews in tegra zone. If anyone else noticed and turned there heads, its only because its not available on the market for non tablet devices. For some reason everyone gave it one star without actually knowing this.

Anyway its an amazing game and I thought I'd help out by letting you know they have an official sideload apk for people who want to try it on there phones. It works perfectly fine the text is just a little small but readable.

Here's a link to the site http://www.vendetta-online.com/h/news.html

[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
Is it me or is the screens whites a bit more yellowish?

Comparing it to my EVO it looks that way.
[HTC EVO 3D] Semantics:
This was also a complaint in some reviews. It's speculated that it may have something to do with the layer of film on the screen for 3d purposes. Glad I didn't pre order, I know a lot of people have the phone already and I don't see the OMFGTHISFONROXBBQ posts yet.

[HTC EVO 3D] DDiaz007:
I don't think it may just be the 3D, my sisters shift is the same way. I think its because I got the novatec panel on my EVO. I got no complaints cause the phone looks gorgeous

[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
I think it really depends on what panel your EVO had. I know that the Novatec was much whiter than the Epson. I would say this was more like the Novatec.
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
Here, let me help you out:

OMFGTHISFONROXBBQ!!!!!!!!!!!

The 3D is SENSATIONAL! I made a video of my friend's salt water fish tank last night, and it looks BAD ASS. Everyone I've showed it to has had to pick up their jaws from off of the floor. I haven't tested the video's on my 3DTV yet because I don't have the MHL adapter, but today when I get home, I'm going to try playing the video via DLNA on the PS3 and see if I can get it to work.

The phone is blazing fast and seamless. Remember the OG Evo how it would slow down for a 5-10 seconds while an app was installing? Well, that is gone. GPU handles games that used to lag perfectly (i.e. Gun Bros). Sense 3.0 rules.

This phone is as fresh as the Evo was a year ago, and it makes the Evo feel like a dinosaur in comparison.
[HTC EVO 3D] toxicfumes22:
You make me excited :)

I have to get up at work to drop something off but Im having to sit just a little longer because I was thinking about the Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
lol...yesterday and today have been HIGHLY unproductive for me at work.
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapMaker:
Ditto, I got mine at lunchtime and working has NOT been a priority...

3D is pretty cool, but I've discovered that the phone gets stuck in 2D mode a lot... I have to move the switch to 2D, then back to 3D, for it to start the 3D mode sometimes...
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
I can't say I've experienced that. It takes 2-3 seconds to switch from one mode to the other, but I haven't had anything get stuck or lag on this phone at all. My only complaint (if you wanna call it that) is that the high resolution makes the keyboard a little smaller and my fat clumsy fingers can't type as well as I did on the Evo, but I'll get used to it.
[About XDA developers] mrrick:
Am I the only one that thinks so? I see all these threads being quickly responded to saying "use the search before posting, thread closed, etc.. ". Well if search worked halfway decent on this site these threads would be unnecessary. I'm sure a good percentage are noobs being lazy, but for those of us actually looking for legit info, well, good luck. Maybe it's just xda's mobile app search function. I have not used the websites search on the full site to compare. Again, is it just me? Somebody help me out here..

Example: there is a thread asking for the .Apk file for teeter. A mod jumped in saying use the search, and locked the thread. I'm interested in this game aswell, so I used the search. And nothing..

What am I missing?

A tedious search is worth not getting flamed for not lol
[About XDA developers] TacoSandwich85:
You just have to know how to use it. Kind of like Google search. Know what you want or need and be able to use terms or phrases to get you results. I joined xda last year and since then I haven't had any problems with the search feature. I either find the solution using search or figure it out on my own. I really don't understand how people mess up some times. Usually devs explain things really well, to the point where they are holding your hand. I love xda and couldn't imagine an android experience w/o it. Thanks xda! :)
[About XDA developers] ahvk88:
i'm a new member n just flashed my phone with a custom rom. now my phone has incoming call delay where the phone only starts ringing after 2-3 times ring tones at the other side. n since i'm a new member, i cant post to development thread. i need to have posted at least 8-10 posts to other general threads only i can post to that thread. i thought i can faster post 8-10 posts so i can ask for help but there is a 5 min delays between post for new member.

i tried the search function, many results returned but i cant find a solution n i urgently need to ask for solution in the proper thread. but this is only my 3rd or 4th post.

i'm sorry if i complained.
[About XDA developers] ahvk88:

[About XDA developers] mrrick:
@ACis0014.. it's nothing at all like google search... Not even remotely similar. With google, you type your query and you have answers damn near immediately. Here, it looks as though it brings up threads that your search query might be mentioned in and I guess it's up to us to flip thru all the hundreds of pages and posts to find out if it's even the answer we're looking for.

And yes, god forbid we need help right away with an issue and post a question about it. Oh man, it's like burning their flag or something. It is what it is tho I guess. One of those things where you either deal with it, or move on..

[About XDA developers] TacoSandwich85:
I mean I am not here to convince you, that's not my job. You can believe whatever you want. But as I mentioned before I have never had a problem. It's also a matter of working to find your answering. do you expect everything to be handed to you? Rooting and modifying your phone takes work and patience apparently you don't have either one or just aren't trying. If you can't "deal" with the search than stay with stock or visit another website. Personally I don't ask for help until I have exhausted all other options. There's also a sense of pride in rooting and modifying knowing you did something by yourself without really having much experience beforehand. The devs and members here are wonderful who work their asses off for themselves and are courteous enough to share their work without really asking for money. At the most they ask for users to press a damn "thank you" button. Whoop di do! The only real complaint I have about xda is that some members post these stupid, immature comments or act like total douchbags or some think they are the damn xda police who are here to shape everybody up. Thank god my fellow mytouch 4g users are pretty good for the most part!
[About XDA developers] mrrick:
Lol. You're really trying to earn that xda brown nose badge aren't ya..

Look, The sites itself is fine, I've learned plenty and have done my share of research.I'm just talking about the search function and also the elitists here who think everyone who posts something has to post at a professional developers level. im not talking about your precious xda forum and its devs. This place is the best of the best.. Relax..

[About XDA developers] xaccers:
Don't use . in the search, only use keywords, so: teeter apk

If you do get stuck with no results that give you the answer, then if one of the results is similar then try posting in there to bump it back to the top.

It's also a good idea (tends to quieten down the "Search n00b!" bunch) to start the post with "I did try to search but came up with nothing useful, so if someone can just direct me to a thread they know about that'd be much appreciated, anyway, my problem is..."
[About XDA developers] doktornotor:
Well, dunno what is up with the search here. I am pretty sure the stock vBulleting search has options to use logical operators such as AND/OR in search terms (even accessible via checkboxes).

Why is it disabled here?
[About XDA developers] mrrick:
Thanks for the tip.. I usually just google my question and add xda in the query and it usually will give me a list of specific posts and threads containing what I'm looking for.. example: (teeter apk xda) i find this much easier and faster than the forum search..

And also.. Yes, I would like things "just handed to me" when I have a question or problem.. That's what the Internet is for!!! In fact, I think the word Internet is Latin for instant gratification. Or something.. Just sayin..

[About XDA developers] doktornotor:
Suggesting something here apparently appears about as productive as screaming out for help in the middle of a deep forest. Maybe this sucky crippled search is a "feature", exactly as the crippled "report post" functionality.

Silently ignoring user feedback about apparently broken functionality is really NOT appreciated. The issue will not disappear if you ignore it.

The truly annoying thing about search on this site is half of the time when you want to use it, it is either temporarily disabled or otherwise not working.
[About XDA developers] doktornotor:
I made a short "usability" analysis of the search feature here. Well guys, this way, you would not succeed even 10 years ago, when Google was just starting. Uh.

See below:
[About XDA developers] spawny_ro:
I gave up using the search function on the site and in the worst case scenario i search the forum manually (or use google directly)
[About XDA developers] stubborn_d0nkey:
The search function works fine for me. If you dont know how to use it optimally, thats not the same thing as it sucking
[About XDA developers] :
Kindly see my illustrated guide to the suckage. My suggestion would obviously be: replace the confusing sucky nonsense with dead simple Google custom search box, problem solved.

Sorry, but the search *does* suck big time as it is.
[About XDA developers] stubborn_d0nkey:
I saw your misguided guide to the suckage.

1. I typed up there ziptheme apk hit enter, got results of a google custom search

2. I opened advanced search, typed zipthemer (search title only-default) and got several relevant results. (none had apk in the title(!))

I dont really see the problem. It might not be perfect, there might be better search engines out there, but that doesn't mean it sucks.I find it quite sufficient.

PS. The only thing that, IMO, can be said to suck about the search is the 30 second wait, though I haven't really run in to that that much. I guess once or twice, maybe thrice (I love using this word :P). I guess I usually got "lucky" while searching and found what I needed on my first .
[About XDA developers] :
Yeah, some people just refuse to see the problem with totally misdesigned search, no matter how many thousands of useless posts are flooding this site every day because the search does not produce anything useful... Oh well, c'est la vie. Misguided, yeah. :rolleyes:

P.S Getting "several relevant results" burried among hundreds of totally irrelevant is not a success but rather a complete FAILURE.
[About XDA developers] stubborn_d0nkey:
Searches haven't developed to the point that you can tell them: "hey this and this happened to my phone, find me a thread where there is a solution" so there will always be people who cant find something with a search.

@P.S. lol, you didnt even try the search I mentioned, do it, and then delete the P.S. if you want to
[About XDA developers] :
LOL, no I did not, because the search you mentioned is totally useless and you totally missed the point of the whole thing. I.e., if you type "foo bar baz" into the search form, you want results that contain ALL of "foo bar baz" and not a random one of them. By default. Also, what you absolutely do not need is a completely misdesigned search GUI which confuses users like hell. If you do not have a problem with having to type your search into a field designed to search for "devices by OS or manufacturer", if you do not have any issues with the "find your device" field doing absolutely nothing useful at all etc., then please stay clear of webdesign. Thanks in advance!

In case you have missed the huge difference between the relevant Google Search results and totally irrelevant vB search results, that is really sad - sorry but I do not feel like wasting my time on this debate any more.
[About XDA developers] braveally:
Agreed

I won't go as far to say that it sucks, but it is very inconsistent for me. Common keywords, often as simple as a phone model would show up not always show up in the search (post or thread), and miraculously yield results at some random point. This is especially annoying when you are searching for a thread you read earlier and want to see again (although I just subscribe now). It happened in a post about video file formats on my phone. After searching for that one thread unsuccessfully (you can't find the keyword video?!?!?!??) I started to post a thread and it finally got recommended to me. What a headache.
[About XDA developers] T1RKazz:
It only works about half the time for me
[About XDA developers] stubborn_d0nkey:
I do agree it would be better to have search syntax available.

I do not see how the search field is designed to search for "devices by OS or manufacturer". It's just a search field. The "devices by OS or manufacturer" is clearly a dropdown menu (see the little thing pointing downwards).

I did see the huge difference between your google search and your vB search results, because your search was a bad one. You searched for zipthemer apk in titles. There are no titles with both (if the search was made so that you had to have had at both in the same title you would have had no results). A search for just for zipthemer would have gotten you what you wanted. 6-7 pretty much relevant results. With the first one being what you are probably looking for.
