[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taob:
The phone no longer reboots, but I still had the problem of not picking up any signal whatsoever (voice or data), even though wifi and GPS work just fine. APN settings were verified to be correct. It turns out I had to go into Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Network operators -> Search network and manually re-register my phone on TELUS. Bizarre.

I had the same problem, update your radio and flash this zip on the Unity Thread

"For people experiencing random phone Freezes, this is due to overclocking, it's solved by lowering max speed.

Just flash this patch over: (link is on the thread)"
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taob:
That's a different kind of problem, sengalang. My phone was working just fine overclocked to 1.2 GHz for over a weeks, so why would it suddenly start crashing like this? Problems due to overclocking tend to result in reboots at random times, and not at 100% predictable times like my problem. I did also boot with the MIUI and stock DZ ROMs, which do not overclock... same problem. Thus the root cause was not CPU speed.

Quick question regarding warranty exchanges with T-Mobile...

I'm tired to swapping out HD7's, i'm expecting my third one today, this has been since January. I brought this up to T-Mobile, but they said HTC makes the determination of which phones are available for exchange.

Either way, has anyone had success with getting another phone, of equal or lesser value through a warranty exchange? If so, how?

Am in the same predicament as you. They keep swapping with a refurbished phone; and they all have one issue or the other.

[Q] Rogers Xperia Play R800aAT&T in US; How to update to 2.3.3 without losing Root?

Can anyone please help me update my Rogers sim unlocked gingerbreak rooted Xperia Play in the United States to 2.3.3 without losing my root access? I heard OTA update was the only way but since I'm in America using AT&T it just says that it can't connect to the network. If I use the PC Companion software then I beleive I will lose my root. Any help out there?
[Xperia Play General] PhillipJ:
You need to follow the instructions in the Working Root thread. The 2.3.2 ROM you flash is a world version, not a carrier version, so you'll get the 2.3.3 update OTA no problems.

Even if you have an AT&T sim you can still update over the air. You can also use the desktop software.

[Acer Iconia A500] mandel4026:
I just got off the phone with Acer Tech Support (June 30, 2011).

Acer had been sending out an OTA firmware update, which some of you may have received. I've been waiting all month to get the firmware update and called to find out why it had not arrived.

I was told that Acer pulled the firmware update because it is getting ready to release the Honeycomb 3.1 update. They said the new firmware update will be packaged along with the new Honeycomb update, instead of being sent out separately.

So when can we expect to see the updates? I was told that Acer was waiting on Google to issue the Honeycomb update (:confused: Huh? I thought that 3.1 was already widely available). Acer said they expect to be sending the Honeycomb and firmware updates out within the first 10 days of July. :D

That's the latest from Acer.

Man you are really stuck on that monster madness trip I truly hope you find a rom that will play it soon!
[Acer Iconia A500] Bec07:
It's not about the game. It's about faulty drivers that can damage your nice Tegra cores if put under too much stress.

The game itself is quite bad as far as I'm concerned but it is a good benchmark. On 3.0 for example the performance(FPS) was horrible.
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
honeycomb issues

I have browsed all over the net as well as many forums.even stuff from and about Google.Honeycomb has issues and they are being worked out all of our devices have similar troubles not just this one.Google and nvidia are working to fix.you will see when we get 3.1 the other tabs will be sent even more updates.im not happy about waiting.but do hope they get it right when its pushed to us.

Patience overcomes! !!!!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] FooFooNZ:
Well, that is something - if the delay is so a firmware update is packaged into the HC 3.1 update, then I'm all for the delay to get it perfect.:)

Not sure about the previously mentioned "They were waiting for Google to issue the Honeycomb update" part of the original post though!?!
[Acer Iconia A500] Brash47:
I've not had a single problem from my tablet straight out of the box. I'm always curious why some people have to have the newest version of honey comb right now. Granted its been out, but why the huge rush. They are going to release it, so relax and let them get it right.

I'll bet money that when its released though, people will still find a reason to gripe and start demanding a new update that's not even released yet, and they will want the update last week. Sheesh, relax and enjoy your tablets people. Its a work in progress. If you wanted an apple like product, buy one, otherwise, consider that your dealing with an os that's still fairly new. Apple had this stuff planned for years before they released it. Android was an afterthought competition.

I love android and all its quirks. The customability is great. Hopefully it will start moving faster, but remember, apple basically has 2 os they use, phone and computer. Google is a search engine company first, not a os developer. They have a bit more on their plate than apple. Acer is a computer parts company, same thing. Tablets are great, but they are not os writers and are still catching up.

Motorola is in the same bind, their mainstay is not android stuff, its radios. They are always playing catch up on phones. Until a company that only makes 1 or 2 basic products and has its own os as powerful as android comes along, this is what we have.

Btw...I really do dislike apple products, just because of the cult like nature behind them. So don't take this as an apple love reply.

Some of your wording is a little confusing, are you saying that you can't even get usb mass storage to work? (Meaning,are you able to transfer anything to your phone?)

not entirely correct, with Gingerbread (2.3.3+) Google included a standard FFC driver which Moto has stated is compatible with the Atrix and should be used for any further development on GB platforms. on froyo, all carriers had to figure out FFC drivers on their own, but for GB it's standard.

I can't seem to find anyone else with the same problem as me, probably because what I did was unordinary and stupid.

Here's the scenario:

I wanted to get netflix on my samsung vibrant.

I followed this tutorial on how to get netflix: w.businessinsider.cm/how-to-get-netflix-on-any-android-phone-2011-5

So I modified the system file: "build.prop". I followed the instructions exactly and rebooted.

Now, everytime I turn on the phone, The Vibrant splash screen pops up and then disappears and the screen turns black. The phone then starts randomly vibrating for some reason before going back to the vibrant splash screen. This process is repeated and the only way to turn off the phone is to take out the battery.

I can only go to recovery mode, but I tried everything in recovery mode and nothing works. I can't re-install packages because it says "E: failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (No such file or directory)" and "E:signature verification failed"

Please help! Would really appreciate it. THank you.
