I've been running nameless 4.1 since day of release without issues until yesterday. My phone froze on unlock screen and finally tried rebooting. Then got stuck on galaxy s startup screen. I pulled the battery, and when it came back up it said the card was not recognized. Erased, formatted, and mounted the card again and seems to be running fine. The card was not fried. I had everything backed up so no worries.
[Fascinate General] revision78:
I was running full stock bloated and rooted and decided to try the leak. Ran great for 2 days then sd card was wanting to be formatted. Did so, lost everything now I'm in a trial mode trying to find various issue and figure out the relevance. So far i've had to repartition etc, but i'm still having trouble with titanium backups downloaded from my dropbox. Still bringing phone fully back up to stock via OTAs right now and will see what happens.
[Fascinate General] Kaessa:
This is a crosspost from the thread over in the Dev forum, but I thought everyone here could benefit from it:

If you've toasted your SD card... Best Buy has PNY 16GB Class 10 Micro SD cards for $29.99 if you buy online and pick up in the store. They're regularly $44.99. I don't know how long this sale is on, but I just replaced my fried card with one today. Great deal!

I know the specs list Wifi 802.11n, but does anyone know if it supports 5GHz or does it just support 2.4GHz?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eric-1987:
I was never able to connect when i had my router switched to 5GHz so I doubt it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ccalvo:
Same problem... my wife's mytouch 4g can see and connect to 5ghz but not my galaxy s 4g. I've been searching but haven't found out if it's just software or hardware.

My evo and my SGS4G couldn't.

Do you know if this is something that can be changed? What is the reason my wife's mytouch 4g can connect to 5ghz but we cannot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamadoctor:
Hey guys,

My girlfriend owns a Galaxy S and a few months ago I flashed it from the stock firmware to Hamsters rom, I think when it flashed it from the stock software it changed the file system from RFS to some variant of EXT.

I'm looking at flashing it to MIUI now, but I just wanted to ensure there was no risk with the partition being a different file type than it might expect, I was also hoping to get some pointers on Odin etc.

I know these are pretty basic questions that I really should find out myself, but I don't have much time and as it's not my own phone I'm not overly experienced/ in the know. Anyway I hope somebody can shed some light on the matter and any help is *greatly* appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] an2kn3:
Convert the file system first to stock by downloading voodoo control in the market, untick the first ,2 bullets, then reboot. After that you can now flash your phone provided you follow the flashing instructions by your rom provider.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Depending on what lagfix you have, use the voodoo toggle/ext4 app/recovery menu to convert all to rfs, then find the ezbase 2 rom in dev.

Read All!

With ezbase 2 comes

A) ezodin

B) drivers

C) pit file

3x froyo files

3x gingerbread files

Full graphic walk through

As you are going to miui, you need froyo base

Follow instructions, flash froyo ezbase, flash miui(no idea of their flash procedure)

Ezodin is very user friendly, and the graphic walkthrough.....well if you mess up, then you really only got yourself to blame;) atb

Themed to look like Android 3.0 Honeycomb

This will work on BravoX Rom and stock Bravo 2.2.1 (as tested by abhi897)

I have only tested it on BravoX RC2 so I can't guarantee any results, anything you do to damage your phone is not my responsibility.

This modifies all of the framework-res.apk and services.jar

What it changes:

Status Bar & icons

Statusbar pulldown

Popup menus

Buttons

Drop down menus

"loading" spinners

Lockscreen clock font

Lockscreen pull-bars

Scroll bar and handle

Check marks

Progress bar colors

and other things i can't remember

Requirements:

some knowledge on what you need to do if something goes wrong with your phone (e.g. SBF, nandroid restore)

To apply:

(With bootstrap recovery)

Download the flashable zip below to sdcard

Boot into CWM recovery through BandroidX's recovery app

MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP

Select install zip from sdcard

Select choose zip from sdcard

Select BravoComb_BravoX_v1.0.zip

select yes to confirm

wait for installation to finish (a few seconds)

Reboot (will take a while because of the modded services.jar, so BE PATIENT!) Pull Battery and boot up again if boot takes longer than 5 minutes

Enjoy your theme!

Things needed in upcoming updates:

Change some white font to black for easier reading (such as pull down menus)

Make some orange things more honeycomb-like

Let me know if there is anything else!

Nice! this looks super good... ill have to try it out next time i flash bravoX
[Bravo Themes and Apps] GeNiO426:
Downloading and installing now. I'll leave my thoughts when it's all installed and I check it out. Keep them coming, man. Great job so far. This looks good.
[Bravo Themes and Apps] GeNiO426:
Just ran through a bunch of stuff and it looks great. There is one thing I would suggest: when switching between tabs in the dialer and manage applications screens you can't really read what the tab is. Other than that, works flawlessly and looks great.

EDIT: Another thing I noticed was that when you're in the text message screen and typing in someone's name, you only see the "type" of number and not their name.

After about a day of using this everything else works great and smooth. I actually think this one runs a little smoother/faster than some other ones. I don't seem to be using as much RAM with this installed.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
All roms have a kernel baked in, or they would work. You can of course, flash one of your chosing; Tiamat recommended for aosp.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -viperboy-:
Well, enjoy your stay here. Most of us are nice :p but yeah, CM is small (compared to Sense and Samsung ROMs) because it is AOSP without any of that bloat.

Like teh roxxorz suggested, go with Tiamat after flashing CM. You can then take advantage of my voltage mod :)

[HTC EVO 3D] egonadrian:
So im looking to upgrade from my Evo 4g to a Evo 3D the only problem is i dont quite know what would be best. I got my Evo 4G around october and its in really good conditions since i have had it on my Otterbox defender case most of the time. Is there a way that I can trade the OG Evo and get the Evo 3D? I can only spend about $100 on the Evo 3D. What would be my best choice?

Sorry if i make some mistakes my main language is spanish:D
[HTC EVO 3D] abrusil33:
If you are an account holder, you can upgrade your phone once per year.

Just mention option "one year account holder upgrade override" (or something like that-they would know). At the sprint's service desk they may not advertise it, coz some sprint reps are so damn lazy or just an a-ho-s. Actually I just upgraded my Evo 4G for Evo 3D at the kiosk in Ridgedale Mall (MN) location. I paid including taxes ~$54 for new 3D. The option is that you can trade-in your old Evo 4G for $150 instantly. Sprint runs this on for some time - this week 06/25/2011 at least, so... Also if you have 2 (two) devices on the account then upgrade one or add one to yours. I have 3 phones on $129/mo plan and can upgrade at least one device every year. You can upgrade one of "N" of your devices at once and swap numbers at the spot if you need to.
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
The strategy here is pretty straightforward:

The Sprint Buyback plan should buy your Evo 4g for $150 (not bad!): see here: https://secure2.sprintbuyback.com/consumer/app/CartPage/

The harder part will be convincing Sprint to give you at LEAST the 1-year renewal price if you buy the 3D. If you've been with Sprint for a long time, and especially if you're with Sprint Premiere, there might be some wiggle room for you here.

Basically, call in to customer service repeatedly until someone decides to help you. What you want is for someone to offer you a service credit.

One more option: see if you qualify for any discounts on your plan: I'm a USAA member (not an employee, just a cardholder!) and I get 15% off my whole bill. That difference will make the 3D pay for itself pretty soon....

Best,

The Panamaniac
[HTC EVO 3D] egonadrian:
Thanks for the great reply! I guess the only problem im gonna have is convincing the Sprint to give me the 1year renewal early since ive been with them for way less than a year. Maybe they will give me some mercy since everything has been paid on time. Also do i have to unroot my phone when i give it to them?
[HTC EVO 3D] ScottyBeGood:
I unrooted before trading mine in, the link I followed was here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780141
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Ya, don't forget to unroot if you trade in!

If you've been with them less than a year..then your best option is to find a friend who loves your 4G and is willing to take over your contract--then you can walk in and pay $200 for a new 3D on a brand new account.

If you pay full price - $150 trade in credit you're still looking at $425, ouch...

Another option (what I did): have any friends you'd be willing to split a plan with? They can be added as a line of service (most likely $20/month +$10/month for data) and then you can swap the two phones, and your friend will have the 4G.

Finally, keep your eyes peeled for if and when the SAVE50 rebate becomes usable again. It seems to come and go (probably only usable on a new line of service tho).
[HTC EVO 3D] dangerruss:
Don't trade in your phone. It will sell in a day on Craigslist at 225 no problem. Why give away that extra 75 dollars to sprint. Usually its hard to get the full upgrade unless you have been with them for a year. Once you get the 75 dollar credit one phone call should give you a full upgrade.
[Xoom General] pianoplayer:
I'm returning my Xoom, and I'd just like to thank all the devs for their hard work. I'm returning it since I'm not very happy with what Motorola's doing, with (still) no working SDCard. I know Tiamat does that, but my Xoom just ate up an SDCard :mad: Also, I'm not as impressed with Tegra 2 as I thought I would be, so that's basically why.

Thanks.
[Xoom General] msavic6:
Are you planning on getting a different tablet now?
[Xoom General] pianoplayer:
Definitely, but not now. I'm probably getting something Tegra 3, which is coming out probably in a few months. Also, I'm sorta mad at Google for not releasing Honeycomb Source, which severely hinders what we can do with development. I know that it isn't the fault of the devs; hell, we still got BRD's rom, but we didn't get as much development as I thought.
[Xoom General] daveba:
Well asus seem to have released 3.1 code so im not sure it's Google's fault ?

See here
[Xoom General] foxmeister:
That's the kernel source, which Asus have to supply as it is GPL code.

It isn't the Honeycomb source.

Regards,

Dave
[Xoom General] Coldheat1906:
Same here. I hated to return my Xoom but now I am trying out the Samsung Tab 10.1.
[Xoom General] ElCamino:
I also really loved the Motorola Xoom, but with it not officially supporting the microSD card I exchanged it and got the SGT 10. So far I really liking the SGT 10 feel and though it doesn't have some of the features I had on the Xoom or a MicroSD card slot. I will be keeping the SGT 10 as my 10" tablet.
[Xoom General] jerses:
Im also be selling mine. Its not about motorola that im dissapointed. its honeycomb. It just seems like no dev cares about it, not even google update theyre own apps to honeycomb. The market place for honeycomb is broken since day 1. Apps that i was interested in are region locked...(books,earth,maps navigation,video).

I was happy with my android phone even with 2.1 because apps that i like worked fine.Thats why i thought buying an android tablet with the latest firmware will be my next step but i was wrong.

At first i didnt like the ipad (it just looks like a big ipod) but they have apps that works, no region lock on books, music, videos , the game library is interesting... all those things that i forgot why did i choose android.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
Thanks for voiding the warranty, shortening the life span and then when custom software didnt work for you, returning the product. Those of us in the retail industry really appreciate it :)
[Xoom General] Digital Man:
I have both the XOOM and the Galaxy Tab 10.1.

After using the Galaxy Tab 10.1 my appreciation for the XOOM has increased tremendously. For whatever reason, the XOOM is smoother and more responsive - significantly so. Everything about the XOOM from build quality, to SD slot (at least it has one that can be made to work) seems better to me on the XOOM. And charging times on my GTAB 10.1 are horrific. I spend more time charging it than using it.

Oh, and something a lot of people seem not to have considered: for movie playback you are locked into the 4GB limit again with the GTAB 10.1 which means you are forced to limit the bit rate of your movies to make them fit. You can use as high a bit rate as you want on the XOOM as long as you store your movie on internal storage which has no 4GB limit. This means that many of the movies that you converted for your XOOM may not be usable on the GTAB 10.1 if they exceeded 4GB and you may be forced to re-encode them.

Only major advantage with the GTAB 10.1 is the screen, and to lesser degree the weight - and honeslty, unless you're an absolute movie buff, the XOOM screen is pretty good despite all the criticism.

I think a lot of the complaining is an excuse to aquire a new toy.
[Xoom General] pianoplayer:
No, I won't be getting the Asus or the Samsung, mostly for the same reasons as why I'm returning my Xoom. It's mainly because I'm not happy with Tegra 2 (that Samsung Exynos is pretty awesome IIRC) and that it's worth the wait of maybe 3 months.
[Xoom General] Digital Man:
No argument here. Tegra 2 is so bad it has made me re-think my choice of graphics processor in my PC - makes me start to doubt NVIDIA's quality in other devices. Just hope Kal El isn't another disaster. Really wish there were more choices. I think if Samsung had gone with Exynos and an SD slot, it would have swept the market. Ironically, they may have stuck with Tegra so they could support Tegra games and Netflix DRM. And we still haven't gotten Netflix anyway.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Well there isn't many other choices atm for those who want a tablet NOW. I'm thinking about selling mine for $400 around Christmas for a newer tablet. My next tablet will atleast have the ability to play any video file I throw at it without conversion.
[Xoom General] kuroguy:
I hope you like your new tablet, but this makes no sense. How does returning a device because it doesn't have support for thesd card help if you replace it with a device that doesn't have an sd card slot?

That's kinda like cutting off your feet because your shoes don't fit.
[Xoom General] msavic6:
What's so bad about tegra 2?
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Lack of games

Try throwing 720p anime/movies on any t2 tablet..

I have a xoom and love it but I can't turn a blind eye to the issues that it has.
[Xoom General] chbennett:
I love my xoom, and it does what I expected it to do when I bought it. Does Motorola suck at software updates, yes. We all knew this from any other moto phone. That's why Google is good. Also, I have never noticed a shortage of devs on xoom. On games, well I have patience, there are more and more cool games released every day. The screen, well it is not perfect, but capable, same as the tegra chip.

So in short, I see how some may be disappointed, but in all reality, they shouldn't be. (unless they were not very smart and bought a 4g tablet, then you have every right to be disappointed about the lack of an upgrade)
[Xoom General] KING SKILLZ:
gotta return mines by July 11th, really gonna miss it and the developers have been the only reason i kept it this long. I'm sure their strong work is the reason many have held on to the Xoom.
[Xoom General] msavic6:
Honeycomb is a new os and needs time to gain alot of apps aand games.
[Xoom General] P00r:
The only valid argument in this thread about returning a xoom is the lack of support for other country with many google service, and this is not google fault it's company who are enforcing drm to the limit.

As for the sd issue, it will get fixed soon, I can understand an early adopter to be pissed off but if he managed to wait until now it's a matter of week now.

out of topic but I have a panasonic blue ray that have netflix installed, but it doesn't work in my country, can you believe this...

The screen on my unit is quite nice, not sure why some people complain.. so far I am happy with the xoom so I keep it, I have a 3 month return windows with costco, I will evaluate my option by then but so far it's a keeper!
[Xoom General] tumbes20000:
Really the tegra 2 is a bad processor? It does exactly what its supposed to do - deliver sold graphics without sacrificing battery life. Its an ARM processor not a x86, which is why you can use it for more than two hours. Right now nvidia makes the best arm processor.

Who knew that building in an sd card slot to take advantage of future upgrades to honeycomb was going to bite motorola in the ass. They should have just left it out like samsung. I guess not having it at all is better than possibly having it in the future
[Xoom General] je2345:
I also got sick of delayed updates and just sold my xoom. I use my blackberry playbook so much also I barely ever used the xoom. Waiting on the release of the hp Touchpad and pre3 for a beautiful combination. Put my thunderbolt aside for awhile til 4g hits my area. One thing I hated about the xoom, especially after I got my playbook, is the screen quality was ****ty. Imo
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I love my Xoom. The screen is great. Movies play great. Music plays great. It's fine on the go for work. I have sd card and USB flash drive working fine. I've got games. I've also got a 4G wimax hotspot that works perfectly. I'm sorry that you were unhappy, but as they say "YMMV."
[Xoom General] linuxdood:
I agree. Lets stop the Moto bashing on the SD card slot. Lets thank them for thinking about having it for thier customers when Google gets off their butts. Those Sammy's are stuck at 32GB. Waiting for the official pic of a stock Xoom with 64GB total storage.
[Xoom General] thdj:
I'm really happy with my xoom, I really don't understand why people are always complaining about SD card / screen quality (which they should have check before purchasing it) etc. There's so many threads about that, its really becoming boring.

Why just put another thread in a forum ? Is that to convince other to do the same with their tab?

Well after all, it was the very first tablet with HC and right now, it does pretty much what I expected from a tablet (of course, now that it's rooted).

I've got sd card working, usb host (great for usb stick/ntfs usb drive/pocket camcorder etc), cisco vpn connection for my office, hdmi and I like the picture colors, seem more natural for me.

Before purchasing a tab, I knew what I was expecting from it and to me the xoom does its job.

Right know, I'm trying to make the 3g usb stick working, then it'll be the perfect product!

I don't really care about the screen comparison, it's good enough for my daily usage (browsing, watching films, reading emails/comics etc..)

After 2 months of usage, I'm not even thinking of replacing it right now.

I'm just impatient to see what Devs will come next when HC/IS sources will be available :)
[Xoom General] Marshall1975:
Hello

I just wanna say anyone who thinks the Tegra 2 cannot play 720p video is sorely mistaken. I have no problem at all playing 720p h.264 video absolutely perfectly at around 28-29fps. Just use another video player other than the stock one.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Have any of you played Galaxy on Fire 2 HD? How can you play that and say Tegra 2 isn't perfectly capable? Go try the free version if you haven't.
[Xoom General] wang1404:
Haven't been in the forum for quite awhile and sadly the one of the few first things on here is returning xoom. I've read these complaints for so many times. Ya know what? Return the xooms if youre not happy with them. And please don't start a new thread. Good things come to those who wait. Apps aren't updating themselves everytime a new platform comes out. Developers aren't robots that they don't eat and sleep or have a full time job. Everything takes time, if ya can't wait, there's nothing in this universe will fit you.
[Xoom General] trexx:
Do we really care?

Most of us in this forum are Xoom users and want to help eachother better our product experience. I don't want to seem rude.. We don't mind critics or you voicing your opinions..

But do we really need to hear that you're returning your Xoom.. If you have returned your xoom.. Why are you still posting in this forum? Don't discourage other owners/users..

Just my 2 cents...
[Xoom General] ScottC:
The only thing stopping me from returning my Xoom is the vast amount of accessories I got for it -- otherwise I'd sell it in a heartbeat. No (official) SD support and lack of LTE have made me a pissed off consumer, and whatever faith I had in the Motorola brand is gone.
