[Eee Pad Transformer General] stnel:
Some people doesn't seem to know what light bleeding is, so i will not believe anyone saying their TF is just perfect without seeing actual pictures of the screen, in max brightness and low light.

That happend on other forums a lot, and after explanations a lot of them admitted that they were wrong.

Same thing with unbalanced speakers, creaking, screen responsiveness etc.

Or... maybe not all of you there are as perfectionists as some of us are, and that's fine. But don't make us envy your perfect products. :)

Mine (B5) also has one light bleeding spot on the middle bottom (about an inch from the edge) and the screen responsiveness isn't as great s on SGS II or iPad2 (or maybe it's Honeycomb's fault), bothers me a little, but overall I am happy with my Transformer. It's making my life easier a lot on four aspects: saving my laptop (on which i spent a lot and doesn't deserve to be stressed sometimes all day long just for browsing; I am saving it for real work and there are days now when i don't use it at all; also, TF is way better than my wife's iPad 2 on this reason), my smartphone (who's battery now last for 2 full days because of transferring the light browsing, reading and media consuming in bed :) to the Transformer), my injured back (from using the laptop at desk all day) and my eyes (beacuse of the reason no. 2, with the smartphone replacement for some stuff).

LE: Conclusion: Stop complaining or bragging about it, and just make it worth it's money using it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ikeny:
Has anyone yet commented the speaker balance in the B60K batch? More experience sharing on the light bleeding wll be appreciated too.

My B50K has passed its refund windows, but I could sell and buy a new B60K, and lose about $100. I need more info to decide...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
I havew a B50K and it's perfect. Thinking you will be getting $100 worth of something additional with a B60K is just insane.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krighton:
i'm hoping they've worked out the creakiness in B60...my B40 was really bad.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] walkamongus:
Said perfectly. I've had a B40, a B50, and 2 B60s. ALL had light bleed to various degrees.

The B60s seem a lot better but they still have light bleed. While I don't doubt there may be a few transformers out there with no light bleed, I'm definitely skeptical of the claim that someone has a transformer with no light bleed whatsoever.

I do a lot of reading on my device and I like to read with white text on a black background so light bleed shows up immediately. The light bleed on the B60 I am keeping is minimal enough that it doesn't bother me even in this condition.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] filmusikat:
Eek. I returned my Asus transformer after replacing it 6 times. All with light bleed. Bought it at fry's returned it for a b60 ...light bleed. Returned it again got another one at best buy because they had new shipment...replaced it 3 times...all wwith light bleed as well. Sigh. So I finally returned it completely and just bought a xoom. No light bleed :-) good luck to everyone.

I'm looking for someone to make a theme, or at least make a good template for me to work with. I have little Photoshop skills, but if I can get a temple (and maybe some direction) I think I can turn the template into icons.

Ideally, I'd like to fill up the shape with the icon (not have a squished square inside the main circle).

Also, like the AndCubes icon set by Pantera (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=931746), I plan on making the shape match the icon's color.

Thanks for any help!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TorelliB:
I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN ASKED, BUT NEVER ANSWERED SO LET THIS GO TO REST ONCE AND FOR ALL.

So the alarm clock for the epic that everyone keeps asking about is eclair i believe. It was on Bonsai 3.0.1 as well. it has the smart alarm feature and all that jazz...

SO, now that we know which .apk were talking about, here comes the million dollar question(s).

First, On SRF1.2, couldnt i just grab the apk (its in the .zip that bonsai used for flashing it back into there rom) and pull the apk out and push it to system/app? Its called clockpackage.apk if that rings any bells. I personally tried this and it worked, then when i three button'd and rebooted, it has launcherpro FC's and one other one.

Secondly, if it cant be installed that way or isnt compatible, could someone make it so for SRF 1.2?

[Desire General] Joshua3109:
Hey, with all the new dual core phones out are you guys gonna upgrade from your desire? I myself would enjoy having a dual core phone but its not necessary. I may wait out this generation and go for the next. What are you guys gonna do?
[Desire General] vnvman:
I would probably wait for the nexus prime, but i guess i want something different now (aka non android based phone)...
[Desire General] Budadank:
I'm going to stick it out for another year or so until 4G handsets hit the UK. Still really happy with my Desire.
[Desire General] Jasand:
I'm attempting to get a sensation tomorrow as an upgrade without changing my price plan. However on the sensation thread there seems to be a good few issues but this seems to be the same with all new handsets.
[Desire General] erklat:
Not really until current projects are still in development. I'm not upgrading to a device lacking a nice selection of custom roms from trusted developers. It would be Pyrrhic victory imo.
[Desire General] 777ace:
Thought I wanted to upgrade, when I first began reading about the Pyramid/Sensation... But as others have said, I am happy to sit this one out and hang on to my Desire. Just having too much fun with it at the moment :)
[Desire General] Hasty:
I'm going Evo 3D. Need a bit of novelty value!

Seems a decent phone too.
[Desire General] mortuus82:
Not for now i have no needs for something bigger and better.
[Desire General] davebugyi:
Not for now. Probably upgrading in Q1 2012 - when a bunch of new phones will come out.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
Stick with desire, same reasons as given above... basically;

1) wait for the nexus whatever to see what that's like (and see if htc do a spin-off of that to see what that's like too)

2) wait for an ICS phone (HTC or not - i assume this will be part of #1 though)

3) wait for 4G

4) wait for quad core (rumour is early 2012)

5) my desire is fine as it is at the moment
[Desire General] Mgzkun:
I can wait till Sep/Oct to see if I am still sticking with Android or jumping ship to iPhone 5, or I could just keep the Desire and get the next-gen iPod touch instead
[Desire General] Lothaen:
gasp

with apple supposedly 'stealing' features from android (notification/widgets) etc. why would you go to apple?

That said - I can see a reason to go for an iPod Touch a year or so ago... but I'm actually happy with my Android-choice and I think it's only going to get better.
[Desire General] vnvman:
Heh, because history teaches us that apple steals things then makes them better...that's the way they work. Don't get me wrong, i'm just a consumer, not a shareholder, so i'm quite fine with that :rolleyes:
[Desire General] shankly1985:
I'll be waiting till end 2012, very happy with the desire, there isn't much it still can't do.
[Desire General] stankyou:
Same here. I'm pleased with the Desire and would probably wait it out for another year until the next wave of Android phones to hit the market. :)
[Desire General] pavel54:
If I had to choose what I want to have after the HTC Desire, then I would choose Samsung S2 Galaxy, maybe I'll have the opportunity when my subscription runs out, which I have to march 2013 or will be an even more interesting possibility. In any case, I would not go on any other system ;)

regards :D
[Desire General] shankly1985:
Take away gaming - Can you think of any app that the desire cant do, that the other phones can?

I cant Desire is still right up there with the best, spec wise no but still a great phone :)
[Desire General] rodenal:
I've had my S2 for about a week now - at first I didn't really like how big it was and how light it feels but kept with it for a few days and grew to like it more and more - that's without even rooting it yet.

Tbh I was still perfectly happy with my desire I just had the opportunity at next to no cost so took it - now when I pick up the desire it's hard to believe I didn't notice the difference at first - everything about the S2 other than the standard keyboard is well advanced (which you would expect to be fair).

All i'll say is don't try the S2 or sensation whilst you still have your desire or you might not be able to hold on for the next gen phones!

1) Anyone knows how soon custom Android 3 / Honyecomb Rom expected to be released for T8?

2) I dont get it...for a week i got convinced by web that T8 as newest model more advanced, better...etc...then T2. So i spent today online 600$ + 49USD DHL express to get this beast as good investment for long time (assuming its best tablet with power which can handle long term demands...)

Now some weird finding...

ZPAD T2:

Under web sote of MALATA!

They say: hardware 3D acceleration

BUT on ZPAD T8 they say nothing about 3D:

in other hand both says Tegra 2 T20....

Confusing and frustrating....

Please help me understand what i am missing here :)

Other question, Since no one was willing attach GPS module with t8-3g i ordered...Any one knows if I can use GPS usb dongle from dealextreme as GPS for t8-3g?

zpad T8

One subscriber more here.

As soon as I heard still is not built the GPS model, anyway in my case I bought a Bluetooth antena cost 60€ aprox (was not the cheapes one) and I installed blue4gps and I got it running perfectly, I'm realy suprised as is sincronasing satelites and having and amazing coverage all better than my tomtom wich I payes one year ago 250€ per it.

I got some small problem with google market as I can not get a lot of aplications from there, but downloading from a diferent place are running perfectly.

Of course you need to delete a lot of things and install some other but as I expected before order my ztab T8.

What I really miss is to have phone functions included on the phone in order to run some app like whatsup or make a direct call from a website from isntance.

Another big thing I miss and I hope someone will help me is that I was not able to install voice search (google) is giving me a error during isntallation and not able to make it work.

Really I'm more interested into have 2.3 than 3.0 as sure are more aplications for it, 3.0 I guess is still too early to be interesting.

I already downloaded a 2.3.4 rom from Ezpad but I think is not working for 3G or something should be done for make it run and as I don't have it clear because of the bad translations from google or babelfish I still had not tested.

Also want some info if someone already installed CWM, in any case I installed titunium backup and made a update.zip of my app to restore it easily if is the case...

3D aceleration.... I had once one error telling me was not 3D aceleration and not allowing me to instal sygic, later one I download it from a diferent place and I'm running the latest version without problem, just a comment... amazing street navitation presentation, what a grafics....

for rooting just install Z4root.

Thats all for now folks, hope to join more people and share experience for getting profit of this great tablet.

Just one think I bout it for about 350€ shipping included from hotmid.com without leathercase and screen protector neither, If somebody is thinking on buyiing this model I strongly recomend try to get some goot price from them as I was not able to get it cheaper anywhere.

Regards

I have done several searches on this site and the inter-googles in general, and can't seem to find the answer.

Is it possible to run Oxygen ROMS on the Aria. I am assuming they are like CM but I only see them for the Desire.

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lsusparky621:
Personally, one of a handful of things keeping me on CM7 is that S2E only works with CM7. I tried DT A2SD at one point, but got confused with it all and scrapped it altogether. Another is the Eye-Candy Theme that uses ThemeChooser.

Sent from my Liberty
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Eye Candy is just one of many downloadable themes for CM7. It's not included with the ROM.

Simple2Ext (S2E) basically does the same things that DT a2sd does, but it is very easy and straightforward to setup and configure. Simply install the application from the Market, run it, check a couple boxes, reboot, and it's ready to go. It only works with CM7.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
+1 on CM 7 with S2E. IMHO it is the best solution for the limited storage issues on the Aria. With CM 7 and S2E, I had over 25 apps downloaded from the Market and still had over 100 MB free of program storage.

Hi I tried looking for a similar thread but couldn't find one. So I was curious if my g2x battery use is normal. When I look it up my battery use is mostly consumed by cell stand by. I'm not running 4g I'm using 2g. Is this normal?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
It is normal. If you click on it and your time without a signal is high then you may have a poor signal or another issue. Searching for signal will kill the battery pretty quick.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KSauce86:
I clicked on it and I don't get any indication of time without signal. All it says its time on 2h 43m 50s. Could it be the battery it self? I've left the phone mostly idling this whole time and its already down to 86% :confused:. I've tried all the tips like only use 2g, lowest display, and juice defender. In like 6 hours I'm down to like almost 55 percent.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Normal idle drain for me is between 2% and 4% an hour. In areas with weak reception such as my office, the drain can be much higher due to the radio switching between 2g and 4g looking for a strong signal. I have gotten into the habbit of switching to 2g only at the office. You might try it for a day as a test to see if it helps. I know it is not a great solution, but it is what it is.
[Android Themes] jeffng09:
Hi,

Can anyone explain how one changes the icons in the notification bar?

More specifically, the 3G icon, Signal Strength, and the notification for a new text message?

Also, I know you can change the carrier name to whatever you like with apps like "CCname" and etc. but I've also seen that people have changed it into actual pictures or .png. Any help?

Thanks
[Android Themes] javagreen:
I'd like to know more about this too!
[Android Themes] dully79:
The icons are usually found in framework-res.apk/res/drawable*** and begin with "stat". The email notification depends on what app your using but is also found in res/drawable***. You can change them using metamorph.

Hope this helps.:)
[Android Themes] jeffng09:
So do you mean I should use a program like APK Manager, and open up the framework apk? What does metamorph have to do with it? Sorry, don't know anything about this.
[Android Themes] Antennas:
Unzip the theme you're using, and navigate your way through the SystemUI folder.

If your theme doesn't come with custom icons, download a theme that does (I use Buuf as a base, because it effectively themes /everything/) and see what naming scheme you require for your custom icons.

Replace the icons in the theme you're using, in the correct folder, and rezip as an .mtz.

Not sure if it's the /best/ way to be doing things, but is working well enough for me. I'm finding it rather easy to create a whole custom theme by simply replacing elements from buuf, with my own, and removing those I want as default.

Edit: I too would like to know about carrier icons, however! haha.
