It seems you have heard it right.

Apparently, I did not know:

1. Android 2.3.4 enabled voice/video chat for GTalk app.

2. I certainly did not know HTC/T-MO decided to disable it!

Instead, there is Qik Video Chat app from tmo. For some reason, they think it's equivalent to gtalk? *facepalm*

(Now I hope I am wrong, but I have checked all options on GTalk app, and I do not see either video or audio icon next to my contacts, even if they are available to chat on video).

Let me add that to another negative. :eek:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] eismcsquare:
Thanks. I know it's pretty new device, and mods/root/s-off will be available soon. That's why I have registered here. I was just giving first impression of the stock device. Yes, I have already downloaded Astro (does not require root). Not much impressed, but gets the job done.

Yes, I know it would get resolved by software/unrooting. That's why I am on this forum. As I said above, these is my first impression of the stock device. And no - I don't think it's harsh at all. Sorry if I came across like that.

Sure there are. But my point is that there are some apps which should come by default on the phone as part of the OS (e.g. Google Search, Contact, Calendar are part of the vanilla Android), and File manager should be at the very top. Anyways, I have already downloaded Astro, and many other apps to play around with it.

I am definitely looking forward to get rid of the software as soon as I can. Otherwise, this baby will have to go back.

Thank you for your comments.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Akujin:
I moved from a very old android phone so this phone has so far not been able to truly lag on me.

My last phone was regular android even with stock so that is what I wanted. I'm not one to modify my home screen at all. I like the default black 2.3 look and that's what I want. Not Sense.

The fact that I have to void my warranty just to remove it makes me furious. Of course I could bring it back to none rooted state for that. Regardless I think it's hilarious that a bunch of marketing folks think they know better then I do. Heh.

I've made Android apps before and actually code for a living so it's pretty easy to tell that it's a rushed job. The sense front end has no way to disable contact finding so your phone basically becomes facebook and puts contact suggestions directly into your notifications based on your contacts.

Every single "built in" application then requires you to then agree to the terms of service for that specific application. Things like "KidZone", "Highlight", "T-Mobile Mall", "T-Mobile TV". One of the silliest ones is "doubleTwist" which when opened shows you a splash that asks you to click a "Send Email" button which sends you a link to download the app. It then removes itself off the phone. Sounds like malware to me.

So some company payed off Tmo to put this app on my phone so they can harvest my email. Yay.

I don't have time for this bull****. Where's my cyanogenmod!! :D

I'm personally hoping Faux123 cooks us some roms lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
I'm personally hoping Blah and Sparks port PyroMod to the MT4Gs after root and S-Off are achieved. But that's just me, and I like to add as much memory as possible (A2EXT would certainly enable THAT).

Also, to OP, just wait until root is available and you'll see just how amazing Android can be. I recommend OI File Manager for a default one (this is the one preinstalled on Cyanogenmod-based ROMs). I switched to this one after too many buggy Astro updates and they started with ad-supported versions.

You say you are a Linux developer, and you are complaining about bloatware? You are kidding right?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] eismcsquare:
Please. Read the title of the post first.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
I just realized something: Why hasn't the hacking/development community made a "status of root update" thread for the Doubleshot the way they did for the Vision? Permaroot and S-OFF are what's really holding me back from getting this device (PyroMod 2.3.5's speedy boot time on the Vision actually DOES rival that of dual-core phones, so I'm in no hurry to get it; I'm just asking why there isn't one).

I have a completely unmodified x10 and i am having a wireless issue.

everytime i try to enable wifi, the phone says "turning on" and then it goes to "unable to start wifi".

I dont have any unauthorized apps and i havent dropped the phone or anything.

Can someone help because I really dont want to reset it to factory defaults.

Did you recovery firmware from Sony Update on PC ? try it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Avatar28:
For the last day or so the touchscreen on my Tilt 2 will not respond. I thought Sense was hanging due to text messages so I deleted all of them this morning. That didn't help and neither did multiple reboots so I finally did a hard reset. Now I am really hosed since I can't get through the initial setup. Sounds like the digitizer may have bit it?

I am not at home to flash an official ROM right now but I will try that tomorrow. Other than that does anyone have any other ideas? I am paying for the warranty and insurance so I think I can get it swapped if I have to. Are they still sending out Rhodiums or do they have another device to send in its place now?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Avatar28:
Okay, I just flashed the latest official ROM downloaded from HTC. Screen still isn't working. :-( Guess it's time to contact Asurion.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hippy joe:
my tilt2 is also doing this, it stopped working about a week or two ago, then started working a few hours later. lately it will work sporadically and most the time not how it is supposed to. i have simplicity. i also have the insurance and i think mine is still under warranty, will i need to put the original sense back on it b4 i send it back in? also, on another note, sometimes when i plug it in to charge it the orange light doesn't come on indicating it is charging, i have to hold the power button for a few seconds. it started around the same time, are these issues related.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SgtMac02:
Possible fix

Ok, so I have learned that these screens are pretty sensitive, especially if you put them in your pocket. You can sometimes revive this by sliding your fingernail into the seam along the outer edges of the screen and running it along the seam as if you were trying to peel the front (digitizer) off of the LCD. It somehow releases the stuck screen or something. Mine has been doing this off and on for a while and I've been able to revive it several times with this method, though it's getting too frequent now and I'm thinking of trying to replace the digitizer all together. I'm afraid to make that leap though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
The reason this "fixes" it is there some dust or dirt between the screen & panel. If enough gets in there, the digitizer gets confused and ignores any presses.

If you completely disassemble the screen and thoroughly clean it, I bet it'll be fine - no need to replace anything. However, this is a very tedious and delicate process, so be extremely careful.

My voicemail icon keeps coming back randomly even though I have nothing in my voicemail box. Does anyone know what causes this? It's getting reeeeeally annoying!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dclaw_fantum:
Is it just saying you have a voicemail or is there another message displayed when you drop down your notifications?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
It's saying 'New Voicemail' but there isn't one. Not rooted, no ROM, totally stock.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dclaw_fantum:
Not sure about that issue. I know I would get the icon and it stated inbox full if I had less than 100MB (maybe 200MB) of available space on the phone. I had to go through everything and figure out what I really needed on the phone and get rid of the extra junk (thanks Amazon).

You might want to try dialing into your voicemail and see if there is actually a message that visual voicemail isn't downloading. I had that happen on my G1.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Nope, that didnt do anything. This is so annoying. I dont want to have to hard reset over this.

Anyone else have any ideas? Something occurred to me just now. I remember I created a voicemail message by accident by calling my phone with Google Talk on my laptop. I then deleted the voicemail in Google Voice on the laptop. But I'm wondering if MAYBE the message was deleted but the notification was still sent out from Google to my phone and got stuck there when I deleted the message online.?? That make sense?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattb1615:
This happened to me once a long time ago (back when I had a measly Nokia dumbphone). It had something to do with my service provider's network. From what I can remember, which may or may not be accurate, is that the voicemail icon is turned on/off by an unseen sms. For some reason, my phone wasn't getting the "off" sms or something. I ended up calling my service provider and then they sent something across the network that sort of reset that. No idea what they did, but it worked.

My brother owns a nook color, as do I. So far ive completely modded mine with the latest roms, kernals, and its doing all the cool stuff that the nook is known for. However my brother is afraid to root his since he wants to keep his warranty(extended) intact. Is there a way I can keep his emmc at stock(warranty intact), yet have an sd card with the latest CM7 that can be removed? I hope im being clear. Thanks for any input.
[Nook Color General] koopakid08:
Just run off an sd card following verygreens guide. You could just flash to the internal memory and if you need to return it for some reason just flash back to stock and barnes and noble will be none the wiser.

First of all I love black and red, but even without color combos this is one sick case! I ordered mine today and am surprised that more people haven't hopped on the Ballistic bandwagon. Please chime in with your thoughts and experiences with Ballistic cases. I personally like them more than Otterbox.

Here is the link from Ballistic's website but I ordered mine from Amazon for $21 plus shipping.

Looks nice. Definitely looking forward to seeing pics. Can't complain with my Otterbox Defender though. Seems to offer about the same amount of protection.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
Will cases like this, or the otterbox defender still easy to carry around. Put in and out of pocket and what not?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk0t:
Not really, but that's the trade off. They do very much make the phone bulkier. Whereas I could easily put the Inc2 by itself into one of my pockets, the rubber exterior of my OB makes it very difficult. Thankfully, it's got a holster to snap in.

That said, I am referring to pants pockets versus something like jacket pocket. YMMV.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
I have no problem putting it in my pocket, don't see how u could unless ur a girl with those tiny pockets or wear those skinny jeans things, but they fit in my regular old wrangler pocket just fine with the otterbox defender on it, yes, it does make it bulkier, but it was so slim in the first place, its still not really bulky in my opinion compared to other phones.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] deaffob:
Yes these bulkies would fit in your Wrangler jeans but they wouldn't in my $500 Diesel or True Religion jeans.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I have the black one. My only complaint is that if you press the lock button every time you set your phone down like i do, the little corner part gets in the way. If you are trying to press it with your right hand that is.

Wow.. You ACTUALLY said that..

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Mr Lime v2:
Okay I got my case today. Love the protection. Wish it covered the headphone and charger ports. If you're gonna buy this case, buy the red one. I definitely really like it but it is a pain in the ass to get out of my pockets if I'm sitting down. I used to have the Inc1 with the seidio 3500 battery. I loved how easy it was to carry that around.

[Motorola Droid X2] Deleted member 3976874:
Hello,

I purchased my Motorola Droid X2 two days ago from Verizon, but I noticed that it has a very short battery life, especially when on 3G. The battery lasts for 10 hrs with very moderate usage of the phone.

Is there any solution for this? Maybe a 3G toggle widget?
[Motorola Droid X2] ericerk:
I recommend using the in rom task manager, making most cpu / ram heavy apps auto close
[Motorola Droid X2] colonel187:
I would disagree about using any task managers. I strongly suggest removing all accounts in your account manager except for gmail. If you want twitter,facebook, etc. Log in within those apps and not through account manager. Motor blur syncs like every 15 min and there is no way to change that.
[Motorola Droid X2] LancerV:
Order a bh6x battery I run 12hrs with heavy usage
[Motorola Droid X2] ericerk:
Well remove all bloat and then do the stock moto"blur" task killer
[Motorola Droid X2] Sandso9:
Where do you order those at?
[Motorola Droid X2] flanker1743:
I use "DCSwitch" to turn off data. It works fantastically, and really helps with the battery life. If I know I'm not going to be around a charger for awhile, I'll flip off data, then just turn it on when I want to check up on email, facebook, twitter, etc. It even comes in a nice widget you can put next to the power control widget, same style and all. One click and it's off!

I don't have enough posts to actually put the market link, but just search it and it should come up. :)
