If your Internet access is being blocked by your ISP or other parties, you can always set up and use a VPN. I use a VPN service that has servers all across the world to have access to sites like Hulu or use Pandora and OnLive, even though I don't live in the US or the UK.

They also allow most regular internet activities, except P2P, which is only permitted through one of their servers in Slovakia or Slovenia or something (can't really remember, I don't use P2P anyway).

I think the best option is VPN, it is fast, cheap and more important,

really secure and you can get it on the net.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] cheatman:
As sohrab1985 mentioned, VPN is also very secure. There are no traces to leave if you encrypt your traffic as well, except on your own tab.

In terms of privacy protection, I recommend Dolphin HD because it can be configured to browse without saving history at all. I have not found any other SGT compatible browsers that are able to do that. In case you ever forget to remove your history...

BTW: No VPN system is full-proof. Use this advice to work around the system, not get yourself in trouble. If you always connect to a server in the US (for VPN), that could lead to suspicion. Use only when necessary or something.

I just got my tf and am loving it! One thing Icant figure out is how to exit programs. I can go to the icon that looks like tow screens and that pulls up all of my open programs. I have notice sme have an exit button and some don't ( like YouTube) is there a way to exit programhat don't have a exit button in their menu?

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeLopez:
home button

only in windows you need to exit/close, android manages programs a little different but that is a topic that has been beat down to the ground.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan stewart:
You can back out of an application to the point it actually closes, the home screen leaves it cached under the assumption you may go back.

One thing to note is that even if you do close an app completely it will still show up in that app switching window. That is a list of recent apps, not what is active. Its assumed that recent apps were cached so its for quickly switching back to things you had open before.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] socialdistortion:
I have been wondering why this forum's DEV section accommodated so much spam.

I found out that this forum has NO MODERATOR. So I think we will have to self-moderate ourselves. So till we get one...

CAN WE PLEASE:

Not spam the dev threads.

--> No need to say thanks via post (just hit the button).

--> Don't post bugs which have already been posted by like 10 people. This does not work and that does not work. (Read up first and then decide)

--> Posts such as your work is bull****. It broke my phone.

--> Don't ask for ETAs.

--> Don't ask for how-tos (Just read up/search and you are bound to find it)

And senior members:

--> Please don't reply to "help request" posts in DEV threads. It encourages more people to simply request help in DEV threads and makes them tardy and lazy.

This sounds extreme but this is the only way to clean up the DEV section till we have a mod who can delete silly posts.

Feel free to add more.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetbinodray:
I really appreciate what point you like to put here,. Believe me mate some people from this forum including me try to do this but no one is bother to think about it..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
I see your point and I agree with questions that have been posted many times and in case there is already a thread about it on the front page of the forum. But I also think that people here are way too rude to newbies and frighten them off.

This is a HUGE community, with thousands and thousands of threads. Even if you use the search option, you don't always find the answer (even in the case that it has been posted before), and you kinda have to ask.

All I'm saying is that there has to be a balance.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
I partially agree with you. Newbies are getting some harsh treatment here but it doesn't mean that the others are behaving rude to them. I can see that most of the newbies are just posting that their phone is dead/battery drain/baseband issue/you name it even though there are lot of posts on these already with most of the issues resolved. You're right about the thoudands of threads here but a Google search is powerful enough to bring up the correct thread.

And many people asking for ETA's surely fires up some seniors to vent out their anger. The DEVs here have a life and job of their own and they are contributing to this community without any monetary obligations. We should be thankful to them instead of cribbing about already-found-bugs and battery drain.

And I totally agree with you on the last point, there should be a balance.

does anyone know of a sure way to root this phone, and were i could find a rom for it because the original blows.
[HTC Sensation] MegaHz:
Hi

My sensation started displaying some lines on the HTC sence screens. Think of lines of noise, something like that. You might think that the screen is broken.

When I change screens then no problem, when i get back to the same screen the lines are there, if I restart the sence or change scene then this fixes the problen. It appears again after some hours.

Do you have ant ideas?
[HTC Sensation] rawr4dj:
It is a known problem it is caused by widgets that aren't directly sense widgets. Such as the Google search bar. Or handset sms widget. It happens because most Apps aren't optimized for qHD screens. I mean think about it I can only think of 3 phones that have the qHD screen in US Evo 3D, Sensation, and the Atrix 4G. So it's a problem as simple as that idk any fixes.
[HTC Sensation] Utking:
I don't have this problem :S

I have this problem with my widgets also. I reset the phone and most of the time it clears up but not always.
[HTC Sensation] BigHunkoMan:
Bug with a live wallpaper perhaps?
[HTC Sensation] cqms13:
not here - running static wallpaper and get the lines
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I think it has to do with the non htc widgets. I get them on my cnn widget and not any of the HTC weather/stock/tip calculator widget. I just download fast reboot from the market to "refresh"/restart the running apps. That seems to fix the "rainbow line" in the widgets.
[HTC Sensation] reckoner_85:
Changing scenes or skins does that to the widgets, even HTC ones (power control), all you have to do if that happens after changing the skin is to remove the widget and put it back again, it won't happen again as long as you didn't change the skin, also it won't necessarily happen every time you change the skin, it seems to be a random thing, anyway don't worry, your screen is fine, it's all software, this is just a bug that should be easily fixed in coming updates (note that I'm not talking about widgets that don't support qHD, that's another issue).

[HTC Sensation] Kwokinator:
I seem to have a weird problem with the Messages app from HTC. Searched all over the internet and XDA and nobody else seems to have reported the issue.

The issue is, if I go into the Messages app, the list shows all contacts names fine. But for some contacts, if I click into them, it shows the message history, but on top where it's supposed to show the name, instead shows their phone number, minus any separators, and a ">" symbol at the end.

Say, for example, a contact in the Messages app is John Doe. I see John Doe in the messages list, then when I click into it, instead of name it goes to, say, 15555555555>, and sometimes the whole thing is just black.

On the bottom where I write reply, the number shows up fine exactly as it's formatted in the actual contact info.

But if I try to reply there, when I click "Send", the keyboard disappears, but the message never gets sent, and this happens no matter how many times I try to reply or type the message again. As long as it's a reply, it doesn't work. But starting a new message to the same contact works just fine, but it's annoying to have to type the whole message, then copy and paste, and start a new message to the contact just to reply.

And it wouldn't be inconsistent formats either. Some numbers I have in both Google and Phone, I can delete all phone numbers except the Google one in the problem contact and issue persists. Some contacts have the number laid out the same way in (xxx) xxx-xxxx as the problem contact, and still works. I can change the problem contacts' phone number format to xxxxxxxxxx or 1xxxxxxxxxx and neither fixes anything.

I've tried pulling the battery, turning off fast boot and pulling battery, restarting, all the same result.

And this ONLY happens with the stock Messages app, all the other SMS apps I downloaded off the Market works just fine.

Any help would be appreciated, it's starting to drive me nuts.

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] offdutyninja808:
I have noticed something odd about the stock messaging as well. In the text box where you type, some contacts display a phone number in the top of the box, while some do not. I don't know what causes it. I thought it was the way that HTC Sense sync'd to FB, but that didn't change anything.
[HTC Sensation] cjacks9:
I think it may have something to do with the Select Contact Name option when you edit a contact. Say I have a two phone numbers and an email address for Bob. Once I set "Bob" as the contact name for his entry, that it what appears when I start composing messages to him.

I hope this helps.
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
I can confirm the issue, so at least you're not the only one. But in my case it went away on its own sometime between temp rooting and unsuccessful over clocking
[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
I posted this a week or so, I don't know if it helped the last person. but I had this EXACT problem and it was unbelievably frustrating when I first got this and after a few days of searching and banging my head against the wall, I found something that worked. This problem arised when I had double contacts from my messaging and I tried to rectify it. Eventually I got it all to work fine.

This is how you solve it (or how I solved mine).

1: Sync everything to Google. Edit the contact list in google (use the automatic duplicate deletion), delete useless contacts etc.

2. Remove contacts from EVERYWHERE. Sim card, phone, uncheck google sync. Your phone should then be completely empty for contacts.

3. Re-sync with google contacts. if you want you can copy it back to the SIM and you shouldn't get doubles. I think I just left it with google only but the end result is I don't have 9 different "danny's" show up when I go to compose new message because I know three of them.
[HTC Sensation] stuk71:
This issue is bugging me too...

After experimenting today I have figured out why it is happening; any contact I have with an email address within the contact details I get the name followed by the mobile number within the HTC stock message app... Any contacts without an email address are fine.

I have experimented by removing an email address from the contact and straight away the said contact will display correctly in the HTC message app.

Unfortunately I have not yet figured out how to have contacts with phone numbers and email addresses display correctly. Real shame as loving my new Sensation... a minor niggle I guess ;)
[HTC Sensation] jelliottz:
Tgis has happened to my phone once, but rectified itself with a soft-reset. It hasn't happened again since then. Not much help here, but its definitely not an isolated incident.

Yes, This happened with me too.... But after i synchronised my accounts with my HTC and google contacts.... it was all sorted out...i was just thinking of hard reset.... but i was saved :) Try it once...

[Milestone XT720 Accessories] firzen_net:
I have been looking for oil-resistant screen protectors for this phone all over the internet. Do any of you have one that is oil resistant but CLEAR?

Because I used Steinheil Fingerprint Proof and it really affected the vision (it's a matte material :S? no idea). Is it possible for there to be a screen protector that is fingerprint free AND clear?

I just bought a "5pcs Clear LCD Screen Protectors For Motorola XT720 701" off ebay.

It says its Fingerprint Free, but I don't know if I could trust that. Because I got a screen protector from HK saying it reduces fingerprints, but it still had oil stains.

So, any Fingerprint resistant AND clear screen protectors that people can recommend?
[Milestone XT720 Accessories] sohrab.naushad:
Screen protectors are worse than fingerprints. I used some of the best in the market like zagg and bodyguardz. They are clear in the start but slowly accumulate scratches and imperfections and decolourize ruining your viewing experience. Not to mention they too attract fingerprints. I removed my zagg after 4 months and I enjoy my phone ten times more. Just wipe it on your shirt when it gets a lil dirty. Besides fingerprints dont show up when the screen is on anyways. Its only when the screen is off that you notice them.
[Milestone XT720 Accessories] spiderx_mm:
Our XT720's screen is made of Gorilla Glass, which is very hard and scratch proof. So, unless you'd like an anti-glare (another word for matte) protector, you won't need clear or whatever. As Sorhab said, screen protectors are made of plastic and can easily be scratched.

Only matte screen protectors are fingerprint free. Even that, you still need to wipe it with mild soap-liquid at least once a month to clear.
[Milestone XT720 Accessories] firzen_net:
:(.

i was afraid of that, because Matte traps light in AND out. so on a bright day, the screen is less bright, and the sunlight is trapped inside, giving off a generally hard to see screen.

I'm a bit of a clean screen freak. Ive been using no screen protector for a few days and I always end up having to wipe it alot. Everything is a lot clearer though.

I guess there really is no hope. If I want oil-free, then I have to sacrifice clarity and brightness right :(
[Milestone XT720 Accessories] sohrab.naushad:
Go without the screen protector, our XT720's have one of the most beautiful screens and resolution. Overtime youll come to notice them less. Its only when we buy something new that we are anal about cleanliness :)
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
First I'll start off by saying tonight was a really terrible night for me so if this comes off as venting so be it lol.

Samsung, you're getting there that's for sure. Scrolling, screen off/on is buttery smooth and things seem to be working better than I had expected.

With that being said, there is still work that needs to be done. It may just be my location, but with the EG22 modem I feel like I've been roaming more than usual. I flashed back to the EC05 modem just to see and it confirmed my suspicion: either my phone or my area just doesn't like the new modem very much.

Another key component is battery life, it's been pretty sub-par for me. At work I have terrible reception (no bars, even roaming) so I put the phone on airplane mode and the battery is still dropping pretty consistently, much faster than on any of the other leaks or Froyo. Must be a rogue process(es) eating it up, but I can't be sure unless I do some digging which I don't really feel like doing.

All in all it's definitely coming along nicely, but by no means is it phenomenal. But for the first time since DI18, I can honestly say that I feel Sammy is doing some stuff right. Keep it up, don't let us users down :-)
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
My impressions of the modem/rom is they are faking things a little bit on the signal meter as I know the signal isn't that strong in those areas. And it's not like a software update just gives better signal.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
I agree that it seems like I'm roaming more on EG22, but the modem doesn't seem to have any effect. For example, I ran the stock EG22 build for a while and noticed the roaming issue and weaker WiFi reception. Reverting to the the EC05 modem didn't seem to help these issues. One of the stores I work in has a WiFi router that I can access throughout the store on Froyo (EC05), but on GB (EF02/EG22), WiFi disconnects when I walk to the rear of the store. Doesn't seem to matter which modem I'm using at the time. I even flashed back to Froyo yesterday but left the EG22 modem installed. GPS, 3G, and WiFi were flawless all day everywhere I went. So it seems that there must me some code/instructions in the build itself that are more relevant than the modem firmware.

Another interesting tidbit is that there basically is no difference in EC05 and EG22 modems. Randy did a binary differencing to generate a patch between EC05 and EG22 and the patch file is 142 bytes, which is probably about enough to change the version name.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
I have noticed since the first GB leak that the WiFi reception is horrible now compared to a stock Epic with FroYo.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Yes, it makes me wonder if they might have the power to the radios dialed back a bit intentionally to help them diagnose something possibly?
[Epic 4G General] bondosho:
I have noticed the wifi bars being low, but it isn't effecting the speed at all. I consistently get 1.5mbps down/600kbps up when over 3g, and have seen 9mbps on 4g. Call quality seems good as well. As for battery drain? It might be a bit faster than I'm used too, but then again, I'm coming from SRF 1.2. If there are any issues with the TWLauncher, I don't notice them because I'm a LauncherPro user. Issues with the browser? I use Dolphin, so if there are any, again, I don't know. Overall though, this ROM is stable enough for daily use.

I am waiting for my DInc2 to arrive in the mail (switched from Fascinate) and I want to know if there is a way to tether (wireless or USB). I currently have my Fascinate rooted and am using wireless tether app from the market place and it works perfect. Does anyone know if this will work on the DInc2 or have another option?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cwingard:
I think from VZW you get an app that allows for tethering right out of the box, paid. IMO, with root install the latest CM which includes wifi tethering built in and is "free" through Verizon's eyes. The alternative is get root on your new Inc 2 and use the beta Wireless tether app: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

U can root your phone, then use Barnacle, its in the market, it wifi, of u can buy easy tether pro from market, its ish tether, both will not cost any extra on ur plan and are unlimited, but the Verizon app that comes with it will cost u extra, 30 a month I think, and is limited, 4gb a month a think.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] deaffob:
Barnacle's method is ad-hoc and many other android phones can't use that network. You need the true wifi-tethering. CM7 and Verizon paid tethering are that.
