[Fascinate General] Sister Amethyst:
Our story is different but similar.

My family has 3 Fascinates and they were all missing calls, having volume control issues, wi-fi connection issues, battery drain issues, etc. I called Tech support last week and confirmed that I could get all 3 replaced but 2 of the phones were out of town so I had to wait to discuss it with the kids.

We finally got to a Verizon store to test the 3 phones offered on Tuesday night. We made some test calls and 2 out of 4 calls made to my phone *in the verizon store* failed to come through. Ridiculous. The call quality on the Fascinate was awful when we directly compared it to the other 3, no comparison. The Droid X2 really excelled there.

Anyway, we asked for the recall replacements and were told that they couldn't do it because the computer showed that we were out of warranty. Well, the phones haven't been OUT for a year, much less in my hands, so she knew the computer was wrong but couldn't fix it. Sent me home to call Tech and get them to override the system.

Called Tech. They said that my account showed 3 Fascinates with no warranties, but that was wrong as they SHOULD have warranties on them. The only way to fix it was to send me 3 new Fascinates. Then, once those were activated the computer should recognize that the new phones had warranties and I could trade those in. OK.

New phones came in this morning. Activated them all. Version ED04 shipping on them all but within 5 minutes the ED05 was pushed out to them all.

I should be thrilled that I can keep my Fascinate, but after testing the call quality in action and feeling like I was railroaded into this delay, I'm a little pissed off.

No one else had the "oh gee, you don't seem to be covered by a warranty, how strange" glitch happen to them, did they?
[Fascinate General] 1.4hitachi:
It took me 5 calls to CS and 2 trips to a Verizon Store to get my Charge replacement. Funny thing is that the first time I went to the VZW Store the rep told me that they had no stock of the X2, DI2, or the Charge. I then went to another store and the guy ordered me the Charge right away. So I was given the run around and lied to, not very nice imo. But I got my charge now, I'm happy.
[Fascinate General] thekylebrody:
I just received a replacement fascinate a week ago. This is the fourth one and the EDO5 update hasn't fixed anything it claims too. They have a note on my verizon account that if this one has problems that I'm eligible to recieve either an X2 or Inc2. But I've only had the new fascinate 2 days..

So my question is do you think it'll be safe to call even though I just received the fascinate??

Thanks
[Fascinate General] black.v00d00:
Yes I would call and make sure you act really pissed off (and that shouldn't be too hard...seeing as this is your fourth fascinate with the same problem). Say that you don't appreciate being taken advantage of and that you shouldn't have to go through four of the same exact phone for those idiots to realize the thing isin't going to work. One of the reasons I tried so hard to get my fascinate replaced is because Verizon screwed me in the past with replacement phones. I had to get the same phone 5 times and they all had the same problem on them and finally when I went to get the SIXTH phone my warranty was up. (How convenient for Verizon...). So I would say that too. That your sick of the horrible customer service and don't appreciate them trying to run out your warranty so you can't do anything about it.
[Fascinate General] black.v00d00:
Well I received my battery and charger today from Verizon so I finally got to activate my Incredible. I have to say it is a very very nice phone. The UI is pretty nice and it is an overall better package than the Fascinate imho. The reason I had to wait separately for the phone and charger is because verizon didn't have the stock HTC battery and charger so they had to give me an extended battery with the backing and a new charger for free. So needless to say I am very pleased and am very happy I don't have to deal with the Fascinate horror show any longer.

Just thought I'd share this cool little tweak that Jmotyka has been working on for the Thunderbolt.

Original thread: Center Clock & Transparent StatusBar WIP

After downloading:

1. Boot to recovery

2. Nandroid (recommended)

3. Flash zip

4. Enjoy!

NOTE: I'm not sure if the transparent status bar works since I flashed this on top of the CM7 WizMod theme. Clock works perfect though!

BUG: Notifications that contain messages/phrases may overlap the clock.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Vinnie981:
Nice thanks for this

Actually, the developer is definitely still supporting this mod (it was updated today), but it would seem that he has moved to a different forum. Also, I'm not sure that I'm comfortable posting a link to his work here, if he prefers to no longer have an affiliation with xda...

but, if you were to google search the title of his original thread, you'd probably find it pretty quick.

What is a good/the best program to use for word processing? Id like to use the tab as a substitute to my laptop for a lot of my word processing.

Also, has anyone tried the Samsung keyboard dock? It is a bit pricey. Does it offer anything beyond the keyboard, such as ports, etc? Any real advantage to it over a Motorola Bluetooth keyboard, or even a universal Microsoft one?

As for the dock or bt keyboard, I'd probably go for the bt setup. The dock seems to be a bit cumbersome to be carrying around everywhere.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] BlueGoldAce:
Is the docks only added benefit is that it charges the tablet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] BlueGoldAce:
As close to Microsoft office as I can achieve. Compatibility with office is important as well.

I use Documents To Go, and Quick Office HD.

I can pretty much open and create any word document, that will in turn open up just fine on my computer.

The same pretty much applies for documents that were created on my computer.

I have come across a few documents created from a computer that had advanced features, that did not work too well.

For the most part, it can handle all of the basics.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] BlueGoldAce:
I noticed today using quick office hd that on large documents there is severe lag when typing.... Real serious. Is this a problem with the app or lack of power in the tab?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] BlueGoldAce:
So it appears that this is a problem with docx files, and present across apps and devices. A 25 page docx file causes unusable lag, while a 120 page doc file is perfectly smooth.

hi, is there a way to have 1080p video recording while the phone is in sleep mode? ie like the voice recorder? ie like a spycam but without using screen as a viewfinder if you know what i mean? i have heard other older roms have been able to do this feature so please let me know how i can achieve this if possible???

Sorry if its a pointless question, but just out of curiosity does anyone else have a high percentage of screen display in the battery stats? Mine is always 80% and higher, my brightness is always less than 40% and my animation is set too some.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hchxoom:
same... auto bright all animations
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
I don't think that's an indication that something is wrong...the display is going to be the biggest user of battery power. Other Xoom system components must be very efficient to give such decent battery life.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burden010:
Agreed. The screen is, by far, the biggest battery hog in the Xoom. As long as you're getting decent life in that thing it's nothing to worry about.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pissinguoff247:
I had returned a defective droid charge with a defective, buzzing earpiece speaker. Before I returned it, I had noticed that it seemed to also rattle... if I held it between my thumb and forefinger with nothing in it (no battery, no SIM, no sd card), I noticed that if I shook it, there was a rattle from the top part seemingly near the earpiece. The new phone has the same problem... does anyone else's phone rattle like that?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Yankees368:
This has been discussed previously and we came to the conclusion that it was a part of the sensor in the camera. You should be fine.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pc1990:
Like a rattlesnake! On a serious note, I haven't had this issue so far. Take it to a Verizon store. If its a physical issue like that, they have to replace it plain and simple.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Falcyn:
Mine does it too. I'm fairly certain it's normal.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Yep. It's the camera rattling around. Not quite sure if it's a good thing.

Sent from my Droid Charge running Humble 1.42
[Verizon Droid Charge] BeefJerky9:
My guess is it is the lens assembly rattling since it has a real focusing lens (versus the generic one-focus-fits-all lenses on older phones). I suspect that it is adjusted by use of an electromagnet assembly and therefore is free to move when it is not activated.
[Verizon Droid Charge] pissinguoff247:
Thanks for the input everyone. I wasn't aware that it was discussed previously, searching didn't turn anything up.

I am pretty much a noob but I have seen several complaints about this. I have the stock Android 2.2 rom rooted. I dont know technically why this worked but I uninstalled Flash 10.3 update and uninstalled Netflix update. Redownloaded Netflix from Market and then applied Flash 10.3 update and appears to be working smoothly. I read one place that netflix doesnt even use flash but I cant explain why reverting fixed it

Never had this issue and this is a highly used app for my phone with 3 kids. Poor service / back grounded apps maybe ? Or maybe decrapified rom ftw?!
[LG Revolution] lilshooter:
im gonna have to try this mines been choppy since day one
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Does the Netflix app sense your connection speed? Considering your connection speed is constantly changing, it just overall wouldn't be a good app. I personally don't use it, cuz I don't like to watch on such a small screen. I get it with 3 kids, but my 2 kids know they will not be touching my $600 dollar phone.
[LG Revolution] drt054:
Nevermind.. Ran smooth for one day then back to choppy. Even on wifi..
[LG Revolution] Icemans2k02:
I understand that as far as kids touching them. I haven't every had a problem with my kids but given my back ground and the fact I run a small store and fix iPhone /android handsets its not a problem. I still don't gather why people are having issues with the Netflix app maybe its service.

I use GoSMS with SMS Popup. SMS Pop up will display the time the message is received by the phone, say 9:10pm, but when opening the message in GoSMS you'll see the original timestamp which can often be anything from 5 to 15 minutes prior!

Very frustrating, still no solution - tried every radio!

[HTC Incredible S] bruceong:
ok, I am having this problem also. Delay of SMS from my incredible S.

my network starhub (singapore). Not too sure another the other SP like M1 or Singtel.

Got this stupid problem when my mobile network mode is on GSM/WCDMA auto. But fantastic web browsing speed. To solve this sms delay problem. I have to switch the network mode to GSM only. That will greatly solve the sms delay problem.

But internet browsing speed is hell damn slow. it became 2G stuff instead of 3G HSPA which it can be seen on the top icon. From "H" to "G".

As my current android ver. is 2.3.3. I was also told to downgrade it to 2.2 to have this problem solve.

But I have not done that... seriously I am not expert enough to understand how to get that done. So I have to approach the agent and ended up been told that version cannot be downgraded. :(

Really hope some expert can enlighten to solve this problem.
[HTC Incredible S] nsg86:
Ya, have been told so too(downgrade to 2.2) .. haven't approach the HTC service center though..hate to downgrade due to this problem:(
[HTC Incredible S] bruceong:
Wrote to HTC about this issue also. Same as what was claimed by the HTC desk agent. They will be doing some upgrade via FOTA by end August. Hopefully this will solve the problem.

Yep, hope for this too..

Honestly,

They just turned the eeee-pad into "My first Laptop" with that hidious circle cursor. Perhaps, they should have at least put a point in the middle of the circle so you could pinpoint. For god sake ASUS, this one thing is absolutely aweful. Patch it quicky. Lets see how quick you can get this done to prevent dock returns to the retail outlets.

Everyone is complaining about the circle cursor. It's actually not that bad.

It doesn't affect me much as I rarely use the trackpad to select text.
