[Eee Pad Transformer General] pokey9000:
I had a Tab for a couple of weeks, having had a TF + dock before. I had the "Newton rings" problem on the first, but a quick chat session with Amazon and I had a replacement in my hands the next day. The replacement was absolutely perfect. Like, what people expect from the iPad kind of perfect. No dust, no rings, no light bleed even with the backlight turned to eye searing mode, no creaks, no lifting screen, etc.

Ultimately though I switched back to the TF because I was missing the keyboard dock. I thought the Tab with a stand case and a BT keyboard would do it for me, but found that having the option of typing with the tablet in my lap was important for me. By the way, the official Samsung book stand case is amazing: with the case closed around the Tab, it's still thinner than the TF.

If the lack of a TF-style dock or memory expansion is not a problem for you, and you're willing to pay a premium for fit and finish, then by all means get the Tab. All that said, I now have a B6O Transformer and it has none of the issues people frequently ***** about, including bleed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
The iPads (1 and 2s) we have have had both dust and light bleed issues. Also, the screens have cracked on a few. It is very difficult to build a screen that big that users can bang at all days with their fingers.

That's why I said "what people expect". My wife has a recently out of warranty Macbook with a swelling battery registering only 25 charge cycles. It reminds me every day that they don't poop perfectly formed quartz spheres in Cupertino.

Hey folks,

Finally got around to putting CM 7 on my phone a week and a half ago.

Out of the blue yesterday it started a rebooting cycle. Would re-boot, go to the main screen then reboot again. Keeps doing this until I pull the battery.

Any thoughts on what could have caused this or how I can fix it other than re-installing and having to set up apps etc all over again :(

Also when I go into the screen that shows APN's so I can get on the proper network it is blank. Can't figure this one out.

Thanks in advance!

dude if u go over to the cm thread its happening to alot of people, and its happening to me and i never get reboots i think its the newest nightly and something to do with data, now i dont know what nightly your on but u can throw a new nightly on and dont have to reconfigure your phone all u have to do is put nightly on your sdcard then go to recovery, wipe cache, then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache, and install, then when u boot up u will have the new nightly loaded and all your apps will be there the same as they were, nothing messed up, because u didnt wipe data and dont need to , .....let me know how u make out

yes that with voodoo is nice i have to say:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Does voodoo affect the earspeaker and loudspeaker, or just the headphone port?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
It appears to affect all speakers. I know mine is much louder all the way around. ESPECIALLY the blue tooth headset.

I flashed a different nightly and am back to perfect.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrol:
i've been searching this site and Google for sometime now, i need to unroot my Desire as i'm sending it off to get repaired.

i have found that the way to unroot is to use an RUU, but i don't know which one to use, my phone specs are:

- SLCD screen

- UK T-Mobile branded

should i use:

RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.15.110.11_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122755.exe

RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe

or

RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release

i also seen a thread about a PB99IMG file and using a gold card?

any help would be great, seen so many threads but none to answer my question fully.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
when you rooted your phone, did you make a nandroid backup of the stock HTC 2.2 froyo ROM? if you did it makes finding the right RUU for you A LOT easier.

If you do have it then restore that, go to settings/ about phone/ software and check the Build number, and cross reference it with the RUU.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrol:
i didn't nandroid backup stock 2.2 :(

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
If you want to fully unroot, and restore the stock HBOOT and get S-ON, then yes, you do need to flash the alpharev downgrader
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrol:
Can I use the alpharev downgrader if I'm s-on? I had a look on the site and didn't fully understand how to use it without s-off?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
When you are not s-off, you do not need this downgrader, because you could not have changed your partition sizes.

what do i need to do next, just follow this guide? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=880268

AFAIK all you really need to do is find the correct RUU for your phone and run it since you're S-ON.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SWFlyerUK:
Hi guys,

So I've just flashed NSCollab 1.0.35 and have a few troubles.

My first issue is that it's not finding my Orange service, therefore I cannot make calls, recieve, text etc.

The other is that com.android.phone, which is obviously the phone keeps stopping, recieving error messages every 20seconds.

Any ideas why please?

Re-flash?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kijp15:
I'd suggest re-flash, but make sure you do a data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache. If that dosent work, which it probly should. If not, flash another rom.

[General Questions and Answers] gk1984:
I'm looking for an email app that can handle multiple email accounts and push notifications. I want to have access to my yahoo mail, gmail, personal website mail, and work exchange mail.

SEVEN worked great, but isn't perfect. They have since pulled their app from the beta for android and don't seem to be supporting it anymore (at least not to the beta community anymore).

K9 - I read the yahoo push notifications work for some but not others. I'm trying it now but so far 1 test yahoo email didn't get pushed. I haven't had time to play with this anymore yet and only tried that 1 test.

Maildroid killed my batter in no time, so trying to avoid that - unless they've fixed that issue.

It also needs to support Android 2.3 since I'm using the Evo 3d.

One feature i'd like, but don't have to have is the ability to turn on/off the exchange email at will or set quiet hours specifically to that account and not all mail.

Thanks

Have you used latest version of seven 7.54? it have widget support too, i hav used it 2 month ago n was working smooth, if you dont have get it from here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24917729/SEVEN 7.54.apk

Atleast for yahoo push mail thr is only two option, one is seven and other is yahoo mail. but yahoo mail is only for yahoo services. As per my knowledge rest using schedule pull rather thn real push mail. B'coz yahoo not having Idle IMAP facility.
[General Questions and Answers] gk1984:
thanks for clearing that up. Yes i do have the latest from Seven. i'll just stick with that. The only problem I have with it is not being able to stop work mail receiving separate from the others. I can use something else for that mail though.

[Nook Color General] tiggerboo:
Probably a dumb question but can we connect the NC to a fixed line (Cat 5) internet connection. Sometimes no wifi but a wire connection is available.

Of course would need some type of USB to Cat 5 connector.

Does such a thing exist?
[Nook Color General] TCAndroid:
I don't know if you'll find what you're looking for, but i'm not ruling out the option.

Meantime, if you can access a cat5 line, and you're looking at buying hardware anyway, why not get a wireless access point?

(I am curious to see if you can do what you are asking, and I don't want this thread to die on the 'get an access point' cop out)
[Nook Color General] votinh:
CAT5 Ethernet? Sure, wait until B&N redesign the NOOK and do expect another inch thicker, still want it?
[Nook Color General] Moshe5368:
I have a motorhome sitting beside my house and cannot get a wifi signal so I ran a cat5 cable out there to a cradelpoint wifi unit so I now have wifi through the coach.
[Nook Color General] rhester72:
Assuming a driver is available in the kernel for the Ethernet chipset in question, you *might* be able to use something like the Wii USB-to-Ethernet adapter combined with a USB type converter. I've no idea at all what it will do to the normal network stack, but it's _theoretically_ possible.

[Nook Color General] scoob8000:
I just happened to see this. That is great! :)

FWIW, I've seen some no-name Android tablets that have a dongle which provides USB ports and an RJ45 jack for a wired ethernet connection.. Does kinda defeat the purpose of a tablet though.. :)
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Not at all, it would be great to be able to use my Nook to configure Routers and program firmware, maybe even to use the Nook for some tethering. I would be able to finally get rid of my battery sucking, heat factory of a UMPC.

If anyone finds a way to get a usb Ethernet adapter working with the Nook please so share.
[Nook Color General] scoob8000:
Didn't even think about it that way.

I know they got Ubuntu running on the NC (Not sure how well). Surely there is a wired usb nic that supports Ubuntu. I'm thinking that might be the best way.

I just bought my NC, should be here in a few days. I might just have to play with this..
[Nook Color General] cdaters:
What about Dalingrin's Nook Tweeks app? Using 'USB Settings > USB Host Mode' can we possibly attach a USB NIC?

I have not played with the USB Host Mode just yet, but I know I got excited when I saw it :)

[Nook Color General] demonofsteel:
Not too sure if I understood correctly your current setup, hopefully I won't recommend you something you have already done/thought about.

For the moment, a quick an easy way would be to plug a wireless router at the end of the network cable and then setup the wireless network. You could then connect to that wireless router with your nook.

Basically, it would look like this (inline text doesn't make a good illustration, but it's better than nothing)...

Router 1 ------(network cable)---------Router 2)))))))(wifi wave)))))))Nook

Sure you will need to setup the router correctly, but it's still very easy to do.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jardicel:
I've been comparing the SGT 10.1 with the Transformer for awhile now, and I'm not exactly sure which one to get :\ The Transformer has quite a few problems, whereas I haven't heard of some for the Tab. I just want to know which TABLET is better, no keyboards attached.

Obviously since I am posting on a SGT 10.1 thread, many will say Samsung. I have also posted on the Transformer to get better details.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] krips2003:
For longevity and superior hardware, stick with SGT. Also the speakers and display on SGT is better than any current tablet in the market. Rest is up to you to decide which one you want to keep.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] winterknoll:
Ive owned both and the transformer was a piece of junk in my opinion. Terrible build quality issues that went unaddressed (returned three times and still didn't have one that worked properly). The build quality is loads better on the galaxy tab, well worth the difference in price in my opinion.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] walkamongus:
I went through 5 Transformers because of light bleeding before giving up and purchasing a Galaxy Tab ($50 off...thanks Staples).

I still don't hate the Transformer. I think it would be a fantastic device if there weren't build quality issues.

I can say (as unbiased as I can) that the GT is better than the Transformer. The screen is noticeably better and the speakers are MUCH louder on my GT than any of the Transformers I had. The quality of the GT is much better and my GT has no light bleed whatsoever.

While it still annoys me that Samsung didn't put a microSD card slot on it, I think the other areas more than make up for this.

By the way, whoever at Samsung made the decision not to put a microSD slot on the GT should be fired. Such a small addition would have put the GT way out in front for best tablets IMHO. With no microSD card, its like they gave up just a few inches from the finish line.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stillblood:
Im with you on the sd card. But not a deal breaker for me
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] capufo:
Sgt is so much better than the other tablets and you can always go to the store and compare them :-) and yeah the sd card would have being a nice addittion
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 00r101:
Light or heavy. That'a the question.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] akarol:
I owned the TF (well, 3 problematic ones) and currently own the GT (haven't looked back). Basically, if you're willing to put up with build quality issues (trust me, your TF WILL have something wrong with it), then you can even start comparing the two.

Bottom line is, if you already own a laptop/netbook, get the GT. The TF shines when docked, and even then, it falls short of the entry-level netbook (software issues).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Do the Android:
I've had 2 TFs, one with power button sticking issues and other with microSD card reader issues. :mad:

Both returned and waiting for my tab to come soon. :p

TF was pretty dispointment as in quality control. What are the odds of getting bad ones back to back? (and the troubles I went through returning and getting new ones) I would think very hard before buying any ASUS products now and on.:cool:

I couldn't say much about the tab yet since I'm still waiting for it.:p
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 4dthinker:
I have a transformer with no build issues. The asus is a little wider, a little thicker, and a little heavier than my SGT. But it runs the same apps just as well, and was $100 less than the SGT. Kind of like the iPad 1 to the SGT being an iPad2 in dimensions, yet the Asus has a better rear camera, microSD, and that great keyboard dock as an accessories.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] droidx1978z4:
I have both tablets and the only thing I like better about the transformer is the sd card. I got one of the better built transformers, with my only complaint being a small amount of light bleed in one corner, but I still do not trust the build quality of it in the long run. I returned a xoom (staples didn't have any galaxy tabs in stock at the time) to get the tab and plan to sell the transformer and rebuy another xoom before the staples $100 off deal ends. The xoom feels like it is a much higher quality piece of hardware, and I am willing to deal with the extra weight and slightly less vibrant screen for what I feel is a better built device.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hipertec:
So which one do you like better? Xoom or the SGT? Assuming the TF is out of the picture.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] fransarj:
Yeah same question. My brother is considering the xoom since i already have the SGT. SHould he?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Danny80y:
I chose the GT after 3 exchanges on the Asus. The GT screen is just so much better than the xoom and I like that its thin and light Asus and xoom are pretty heavy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] x-ravin:
I can't comment on ASUS vs SGT, but as for the Xoom vs SGT you really have to decide what you're going to be using the tablet for.

Xoom is going to give you 2x flash space for the same money, plus the device is expandable with an SD card, HDMI, and USB host plugs. And as others have mentioned, the Xoom is built like a tank compared to other tablets.

That being said, the screen on the SGT is amazing. Go to staples and compare, you'll see. The Xoom will look washed out, whereas the SGT will be bright and vibrant. The SGT is also super thin and light. If you plan on holding your tablet a lot, this is important.

I went with the SGT because I don't need the HDMI and USB ports. I also don't put much media on it because I stream everything, so the flash space and SD card are all but useless to me. And lastly, I've very careful with my devices. My phones have always gone naked and have never had a screen scratch, thus I choose light weight and thinness over stronger materials. The only selling point of the Xoom that was appealing to me over the SGT is the fact that it is the Nexus of the tablets and will see Android updates years before we do.

Bottom line? Xoom or SGT, you'll be happy either way :p

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Sevent33n:
I have the sgt and my broter has the xoom. I personaly like the sgt better because it is ligter, the speekers are better and the screen looks less washed out. Although with the xom you get much more space to put movies and music on.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nikzDHD:
I was considering both but after the stories I've heard about the Asus I was swayed with the SGT. The build quality issues on the Asus deterred me from getting that one wasn't going to risk having to go through 1+ devices to find the perfect one, saying that the SGT could prove to be the same, here's hoping there is nothing wrong with it when it arrives.
