[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TCAndroid:
After thinking about it more deeply, my 16gig card came in just the small plastic case with a full sized sdcard adapter, no original packaging.

I run my OS from the card, not emmc, and it is fantastically better then other microsd cards i've used.

It doesn't bother me that it wasn't advertised about the packaging, but I can certainly see how some(probably most) people would be ticked about it. I concede without question the legitimacy of the argument.

I defray the idea that the card may have been previously used by the amount of business the company does. I think they pump more volume out then they could keep track of an 'employee loaner program' or whatever.

At least this thread has borne out this fact, so we can say buyer beware of the packaging issue.

That said, it's still the best MicroSD card we know of - unless some of the people researching the "operating system from MicroSD" situation have some hidden gem they aren't talking about.

(I sincerely doubt this, it's like the complete opposite of the spirit of the place we are in...tantamount to committing sacriledge in a church or something)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blue6IX:
Sorry, I didn't think to mention this.

Both 16gig cards I ordered from there came in OEM packaging, didn't seem like a big deal to me at the time.

I never considered any of the thoughts surrounding that revelation, or I would have made it known up front.

My apologies.

(still a rockin' card though)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdaters:
I'm happy with mine. Can't beat the $17 Amazon/etech charged. Aside from the shipping envelope it came in, packaging looks just like I'd see it on the shelf at walmart...

Works great too!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stud_muffler:
I bought this one to use it in the NC. Very fast, comes with adapter.

Free shipping. The store itself is very good, respectable. I have bought laptop from them before.

:cool:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SCrid2000:
I get all my electronics online, almost always from Amazon.

The size sd card you should get depends on what you want to keep in your nook.I don't store music our videos on mine so 8gb us plenty for me.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhooper:
You so right..so many memory dealers and so many brands in Australia ..have been trying out a few...but recently bought memory from this company called Strontium nd I really like their stuff.. purchased mini sd memory card- 16gb sd cards class 6 for just $28 and that works flawlessly with all my devices...:)
[HTC EVO 3D] rlaw:
Well, I did too.

And boy was my hide burned when I saw wirefly and amazon sell it at a lower price.

I dialed *2 to ask for a promotion matching credit, the first rep to supervisor to manager combo denied me but I called in again, asked to go straight to a supervisor and explained the situation.

They gave me a 30$ credit.

Might as well get something considering you signed the dotted line for two years right?

G'luck.

ANNOUNCING PERMA-TEMP ROOT + HULU FIX!!!!

I've taken the excellent existing information from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159354 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=688054&page=46

See the first link for instructions, etc. Basically just plug your phone into your PC, make sure USB debugging is on, using your phone as charge only, and that HTC Sync isn't running. Then open up the attached zip and run Run_ME_Fr3vo_ROOT + HULU FIX. OH, and I'm not sure if it matters, but have the latest Adobe Flash player installed on your phone before you start (10.3.185.25)

That's it! Your phone should be rooted AND HULU-ready until you reboot.

WHAT I DID: All I did was add a few commands that will delete your lib file from com.adobe.flashplayer, then install a different .lib file with correct permissions. Now, when you go browse Hulu with your stock browser or Dolphin (making sure your settings are set to disable mobile browsing, or set as DESKTOP VIEW, etc), Hulu won't recognize your phone as non-desktop, and you'll be free to watch Hulu all you want!

[Please note: this is my first time doing anything like this, as in first time ever creating a .bat file or doing anything with adb beyond the very basics; please bear that in mind when ripping me apart for being a noob :) ]

If this was helpful, please let me know with a thanks!

EDIT: Thanks to abe_ahmed09 for reminding me this works with stock browser too! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] VirusZer0:
Unable to test this right now due to no PC access. But dude, no one should rip you apart, you are trying to help the community and I commend you do doing things that a lot of others do not have the ability to do.

Kudos,

Tee Jay
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Thanks man that's nice of you to say! I really enjoy XDA because (if I'm diligent) I can learn little by little, ask a few questions here and there, and look back and realize I've made a decent amount of progress! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] bhughes3:
works great! tried it without updating Flash and that was a no go, but once I updated it works perfectly!

Thanks to you and all of the devs out there for all of their hard work these past couple of weeks!
[HTC EVO 3D] raymond4:
Thank you it worked
[HTC EVO 3D] pbedard:
Perfect man hulu works great

sent from my troll car lol
[HTC EVO 3D] tsalate:
hey noob,lol

very nice work! thanks for this.
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
SWEET!

Glad it's working! I'll add emphasis to the fact that you need the latest version of flash for it to work.

Here's a question: are there any other programs out there that have to be tweaked AFTER root in order to work? What I mean is, right now I've got 10 or 20 root apps that work flawlessly after I root. But if there are good apps out there that require additional tweaking after root, perhaps we could incorporate that into the .bat as well :)
[HTC EVO 3D] eltrutgnik:
n00b question: is it safe to run this if we already have temp-root?
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Should be--I just tried and it was fine.

Worst-case scenario, reboot phone and then run it! Either way, because of the nature of temp-root, it's all pretty "SAFE" at this point :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Overstew:
Do I need hulu PlUS to use this? Or is it ad supported?
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Oh hell no! Just use the free Dolphin Browser from the market, then go to settings and choose "Desktop" so that websites think you're browsing from a PC/Mac. When you get to HULU, depending on your settings, you may need to click the green arrow to watch the video.

Works in Full Screen too!!

...of course, if you're talking about Hulu-plus-only videos---then yes, you'd of course need Plus to view those videos just as you would elsewhere.

EDIT: Reading over your comment again I guess I need to clarify further: nothing here is "ad supported" because there are no apps, etc that I've provided. ALL MY HULU FIX DOES IS SWAP OUT A FILE IN YOUR ADOBE APP FOLDER THAT TRICKS HULU INTO THINKING YOU'RE A COMPUTER. But note that you'll still need a BROWSER that enables you to browse like a computer.

Were these points unclear to anyone else?
[HTC EVO 3D] nabbed:
Works after updating flash to 10.3.
[HTC EVO 3D] abe_ahmed09:
To add to that you don't need dolphin. Just use stock browser press menu options and disable mobile browsing
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Oh whoops, good call! I'll add that in!!
[HTC EVO 3D] xBryan:
works great thanks :]
[HTC EVO 3D] eltrutgnik:
So just to be safe I rebooted my phone, to lose root, and ran your .bat script. After i ran the script I opened up terminal and type in "su" and is said permission denied. So I didnt have root, i ended up using one of the other .bat script from the forums and running your .bat script after. Everything worked like a charm after that thanks for putting this together. =] Great job
[HTC EVO 3D] panamaniac:
Awesome, Great to hear it! Ya, not sure why the root method in my OP isn't working for you...different people have posted different results with the same root method! Anyway glad it's working, and as you discovered, there should be no problem running this on a rooted phone :)

Now I've tweaked it further so it'll overclock your phone to 1.8 GHz! I might make a new thread for that... :)
[HTC EVO 3D] jes24cap:
Root is working but hulu does show up and starts to play then I get a message telling me its not supported on this platform. I updated flash and mobile mode has been disabled.

Hi, guys!

I don't 'wonna disturb all you hard working developers and other users, but as I was going thru all the sources it seemed like a good waste of time and I think it should all be rewritten for a simpler use...

IF YOU OWN A GSM TAB AND WISH TO UPGRADE IT TO 2.3.3. GINGERBREAD, THEN FOLLOW THIS:

1. Flash your GSM TAB GP-T1000 (only) with the following instructions:

2. There is an upgrade to this ROM, the "RC1" pack (use it at your own risk), at the following link:

As I myself had gone all the way round all this and finally came to the above mentioned procedures, I was lucky enough not to brick my tab, yet following some procedures made me do a repair described at the following links:

MY PROCEDURE, MY EXPERIENCE:

1. I followed this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1083971

2. Then I was made to do the following to repare the damage from "step 1":

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1073854

Finally I had discovered the methods mentioned at the beginning of this posts, which are more reliable and to the point...

Hope this helps all of you, who did not make it to the 2.3.3. yet... ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
Edit : already mod look at it ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] bongski55:
+1 for me the firmware provided by the OP in that forum were error free when I tried them. I was new to flasing then.

Yet I am quite surprised that you are allowed to make a comparison between that forum and xda.

Also why would you recommend an upgrade using a non official firmware? JQ1 is quite outdated now.

[Galaxy Tab General] conantroutman:
@ the OP...

Whilst we appreciate you taking the effort to put this guide together with the intention of helping people out. I feel that its probably wise to close the thread as this information is already available from older more established threads.

Theres also the fact that some users may be confused at being directed off site for a tutorial then being directed back to XDA to download a file....

Please dont take this personally its just that I think it would be better for new users to follow an older guide thread where most of the likely questions have already been asked and answered ;)

Cheers :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
I have two ActiveSync exchange accounts I need to set up...one sets up fine (no domain) but the other continues to error out. They are the same settings I used on my Droid Charge for the two weeks I had it, the same settings I used on my G2 for the year I had it, and even works in Touchdown on the D3, but not on the standard software on the phone...

Anybody else successfully setup an exchange account with domain?
[Motorola Droid 3] Immolate:
I set mine up with domain, as I did a thousand times on Tbolt. Piece of cake. Immediately go into manual of course and go from there. I have not set up two accounts however.
[Motorola Droid 3] neonerz:
Are you using a self signed SSL certificate? I'm waiting back for official word from Motorola, but I think the Droid 3 doesn't support it, which makes no sense since every other droid has (and Android in general).

I fear for what Blur is going to do to this phone.
[Motorola Droid 3] xformulax:
lol, the blur on this phone is better than any android skin or aosp... by far.... and i'm coming from a DX and hate blur.
[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
I've had a droid since day one, I can't wait to get asop or cyanogen running on this. I love the hardware and speed of the phone, but after running cyanogen the last 1+ years, its hard to live with the stock moto blur
[Motorola Droid 3] elcapitaine:
I agree, cant wait to get CM on this. The bloatware sucks, and although the phone is fast I know it would be a lot faster on CM....

for now though, I'm actually not annoyed with blur (yet)
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
I'm not sure, I just know that SSL is needed for the account settings to work, and that my account works fine in Touchdown, but when I set it up in the stock "email" app, it errors out. And yes, I'm connecting manually and inputting the correct server address...
[Motorola Droid 3] Rob_0126:
Im getting the same issue, trying to load up my regular email account.

I manually put all the right values in, as I have in the desktop email program, thunderbird, to no avail.

Anyone got a clue what is wrong?
[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
I was able to sync my work exchange account no problem, went pretty easy.

What are you guys trying to connect to?

Exchange Server ? Do you know what version?
[Motorola Droid 3] Rob_0126:
Just my regular ISP's email account.
[Motorola Droid 3] Rob_0126:
UPDATE: Went to my ISP's site for instructions. Seems on the android, Mediacom wants secure authentication to retrieve emails.

Thunderbird doesn't require that to log in, for some reason.
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
Touchdown, which works with this account on the D3 btw, says this:

Connection Mode: ActiveSync ONLY

"Uses SSL" and "Fetch and trust certificate (not recommended)" are both checked.

When I go to Refresh ActiveSync Settings in Touchdown it says:

Versions:Microsoft-IIS/7.0,1.0,2.0,2.1,2.5,12.0,12.1

Policies:SET
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
Again, this email account has been properly setup on:

Droid Charge running 2.2

T-Mobile G2 running CM7 and CM6

T-Mobile MyTouch Slide running CM7

Yet, when I put in the settings into EMAIL on the Droid 3 it comes back with "Error: Count not connect to server."
[Motorola Droid 3] lordgodgeneral:
Ive noticed one thing with exchange emails the last couple days and wanted to see if others were having it.

Has anyone had emails cut off, like its only loading some of the message. I get daily email updates on some xda threads, and it seems if they are very long it cuts it off and you can't read the whole message. Didn't have this problem on my old droid so must be something in motorolas new setup.
[Motorola Droid 3] Immolate:
I've seen it, but I'm not seeing it right now when I check my email. Perhaps I changed a setting but I do remember having to select something to see the rest of the email.
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
Should i contact motorola?? Why should i have to pay $20 for touchdown because they put a defective email client on the phone? :mad:
[Motorola Droid 3] spruleme:
Motorola's software isn't defective and works as intended. The corporate sync doesn't trust self signed certificates. But there are ways to work around this and later set the account to not verify it's certificates. First you need to either setup the account while on wifi on the same network or setup activesync to answer http requests. Meaning allow insecure connections. Once you do this you can setup the account insecurely, then goto settings -> accounts -> the email account in question and deselect the verify certificates option. Yes I agree that motorola is a pain for doing this, but the device is actually more secure disallowing self signed certificates.
[Motorola Droid 3] ocdtrekkie:
I have to use K-9 Mail for my corporate, since Motorola doesn't support self-signed certificates.
[Motorola Droid 3] Code3VW:
I cannot setup the account while on the same wifi network, as there is no wifi allowed on that network. How do I "setup activesync to answer http requests?" Thanks for the above info and your help in the future with this.
[Motorola Droid 3] RaptorMD:
If its any conciliation I cannot get my work mail to sync regardless of allowing or disallowing the self signed certificate. I will have to try it over WiFi to see if that helps, and I wasn't trying to use exchange either.

I do however consider the mail client defective as I did not have this issue on previous Moto Android 2.2 devices.
[HTC Sensation] ldelossa.ld:
Hello I understand that with perma temp root we have somewhat limited access to the system files (after restart they will return to normal) However I was wondering is it possible to take my launcher pro and rename it, install it in the system directory- overwriting the default launcher- so that android now only uses launcher pro and it no longer launches as an App. If this is possible the same could be done for SMS app also? Thanks for clearing this up for me.
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:
Short answer: possibly.

The problem is, some apps won't work when you push them to /system/app without a reboot, and of course any reboot will erase the apps and revert the directory back to its stock configuration. You'll have to try and see if it actually works.

However, why would you want to do this? As long as you disable the Sense launcher and MMS apps you don't want to use, running Launcher Pro and AOSP MMS from the /data/app directory or from the /system/app directory are basically identical as far as Android is concerned. You won't really get any benefit performance-wise.

Edit: BTW, you also won't want to erase the stock launcher from the /system/app directory (or replace it with the Launcher Pro apk), as it will likely cause the phone to repeatedly FC, causing you to reboot anyway. I've heard that freezing it will work, but you'll have to try it out to be sure.
[HTC Sensation] ldelossa.ld:
Haha, you couldn't have answered my question better. If I don't see any performance increase I really have no use in doing this lol. I overlooked the fact that a disabled app doesn't even get loaded up. Thanks a lot.

They just check the manufacture date of the phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Samsung Kies is the proper way to update your phone. Its the way "they" want you to do it, so if it bricks your phone, "they" will replace it.

If you wanna save yourself a headache and some time, don't use it. EVER! lol. Use ODIN to revert back to 2.1 and upgrade using ODIN to any 2.2 or 2.3 ROM of your choice. You could even ODIN to 2.2 complete stock with no root, if you want.

This benchmark focuses more on user experience. Quadrant has very low level tests that are surely effected more by slight hardware optimizations.
