[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glen_e:
One of my favorite applications is xPiano+... However I noticed that there is a noticeable lag between the touch and sound response (MIDI in this case), making it kind of a pain to play. I would say the lag is around 100-300ms. Other piano and musical applications perform similarly. I emailed the developer, cyandroid, and he said that the problem like has to do with the Epic's hardware as his application doesn't perform the same on every phone.

Obviously, the Epic's processor is fast enough to make an application like this very fluid. By any chance, is it possible for somebody to look into this issue? I believe it has something to do with Samsung's ROMs. This hasn't improved from DI18 through EC05. I haven't flashed EG22 - Can somebody running EG22 download xPiano (it's free) from the market and let me know if there is an instant sound response? It becomes much more apparent when you tap the screen sharply and observe the time between your finger tap and the note. I am unsure where Android's midi soundbank is. For the record, I am currently running EC05/SRF 1.2 (clean flash, zero issues).

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathanmurray:
All,

I have been on here for months, but this my 1st post. I have an Atrix that has been rooted, boot loader unlocked, Tenfar's recovery, but running stock ROM 1.8.x. I have not done any "tampering" with or ROM updates or anything like that. The phone in a few weeks and it has been working flawlessly.

However, this morning when I woke up, the phone is just sitting there dead. My wife said she heard a weird beep a few hours earlier. It will not power up via battery and the power button does not appear to work either.

I attached it to the wall charger an it will come up to the motorola and display "unlocked" but will not go past that screen. I also noticed that no charge led is lit up at all ... Strange ? I was able to get into recovery and I tried for a restore using Tenfar's CWM but after it completed and I went for a "reboot phone now" it just went back to the black screen and never booted at all.

Any thoughts ? Thanks in advance !

-Nathan
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Could be simply that your battery is dead. If you have a friend with an Atrix the first thing to try is an alternative battery.

If that doesn't help the second thing to try would be a full rom flash and full wipe via fastboot.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfrankcom:
This happened to me as well. The phone will not charge during boot so what I did was enter fastboot with hardware(or an option like that) and I got past it started up in a couple minutes.

It appears to be the battery ... I tried it with a different one and it booted without issue. Very strange as it appears to have died all of the sudden. Just glad it is not the actual phone. Anyway, thanks for the info, much appreciated !
[Droid 2 Accessories] mehappyz:
When I first got my DROID2, the nice Verizon lady tried to sell me some screen protectors. It was like $10 for 5 or something like that, and the Verizon people put it on without any bubbles or anything. The only complaint I have is that the screen picture quality has gone down.

My question is, how durable is the screen without one? Is it easily scratchable? I'd sure like to take it off, but can't stand to have a scratched screen.
[Droid 2 Accessories] xfloggingkylex:
How often do you drop your phone?

A better question would be how often do you replace the screen protector? If the protector is still in good shape (they scratch hella easy) then take it off, the glass is 100x more durable than the protector. I had a screen protector on my Voyager, and when I removed it I promised I would never use one again... the screen just looks and feels better without it.
[Droid 2 Accessories] mehappyz:
I have about 2 scratches on the protector. One is about a cm long and the other is about 2 inches, but they are light scratches. I have never replaced it.

Also, isn't the Voyager screen plastic, while the D2 screen is glass? Does that make a difference?
[Droid 2 Accessories] tet0r:
I've had my D2 for over a year without a screen protector. It has zero scratches. Gorilla Glass is awesome stuff.
[Droid 2 Accessories] idefiler6:
^This. You can't scratch this screen with a knife. I have dropped it face down on pavement and had it skid, nothing. My girl uses a protector and to me it seems like it's more difficult to use the touch screen with.

I also had a clear gloss protector on my Voyager. When I was ordering the D2 online I took a knife to the Voyager screen and couldn't scratch it, so at the time it saved me 12 bucks.
[Droid 2 Accessories] barbaroja:
so my deep scratch must be something else
[Droid 2 Accessories] jakson0100:
I took a "generic" screen protector, and trimmed it to fit my inspire. I probably didn't need to, but I had the screen protectors already, and figured it couldn't hurt anything.. My phone is in my pocket all day, and who knows what I throw in that pocket!
[Droid 2 Accessories] stereoactivo:

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FLACattack:
Hey everyone, I posted a while back about moving to Germany, freezing my Verizon plan, and keeping the phone as a kind of PDA.

Anyways, it worked... kind of...

I have it permanently in Airplane mode (since it's pointless to have it try to connect to anything anyways since it's GSM here). But if I want I periodically use the Wifi.

Well that's a no-bueno with the Android market and it wont let me download/update/other/etc.

I just want to be able to throw on some good apps that I used to have like my Gameboid, the different angry birds, and maybe some other usefull ones that don't require 3g/network connections.

Is there a way to manually add on my apps? How about getting the Android Market to play nice with Wifi?

Also, is there anything special I need to know about swapping the ROMS?

I was thinking about trying the CyanogenMod 7 (I have the Community Rom right now).

I don't know how much they're going for now but I picked up a BlueAnt T1 when it first came out and it was the best 80 bucks spent on a BT headset. Been through 5 in the last 2 years and this one takes the cake so far. Decent talk time. Standby time is phenomenal. Deafeningly loud when turned all the way up. Most of all, comfortable enough to wear all day (but to each his own here).

[Atrix 4G Accessories] DarkSim2o9:
i would have got the Motorola s10 hd mainly for the water resistances but i didnt have that much money at the time. but i enjoy my s305 so pleasantly surprised by them.

My fav part about them is the ability to lay down and there not in the way.

so if your working out and doing bench press or something like that there great very little in the back behind your head. they are a little annoying with my glasses but the s10 i think would be worst but haven't tried the s10 on so no idea.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] Rred:
Aliph (Jawbone) and Plantronics seem to get the best reviews and ratings year after year. There are 3 generations of jawbone out there now and supposedly the newer ones are better at keeping out background noise, and have some extra frills like working for bt music streaming as well as calls, but audio quality on all of them will be similar indoors.

I went with a Plantronics 975, which gets similar ratings, in large part because it comes with a small case that also has a battery in it. The earpiece can be recharged about 3x using just the case, no other charger needed. And without a case of some kind, whatever earpiece I use gets stuck in my pocket or pack and then the rubber cushion gets lost or the earpiece gets lost, so anything with a 'carrier' or case works better for me.

Recharges with a standard micro-USB plug, which beats all hell out of needing a special charging tip like many others require!

Sound quality is good, but apparently ALL BT EARBUDS are low volume compared to music earbuds. Which is funny, because there's a class action suit out there claiming they are too loud and have caused hearing damage. Too loud?? Never met one that was as loud as any wired earpiece. Never, not a one. And I'm not deaf. Yet.

One drawback to the Plantronics 975, it won't stream bt music either. PITA.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] OSNPA:
I concur with all of this, just got one on Monday. Also, haven't yet figured out how to use with my win7 laptop that has a usb bluetooth dongle. Neither Sony nor Microsoft released a driver that works with this headset. :mad:
[Atrix 4G Accessories] fincan:
Go to your bluetooth devices list, right click MW600, Properties - Services, uncheck SEMC HLA, which is the actual failing thing that stupid Sony did not bother to create a driver for. After that it should work fine with your PC.

Only thing is, at least on my laptop, PC connection does not go into the idle state, so it keeps the BT connection busy all the time, and you cannot answer your phone if you are connected to both of them at the same time.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] OSNPA:
I appreciate your input, however I can only complete this step if my laptop even recognizes that the device exists.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] fincan:
Does it even try to install some drivers for it? If yes, after it installs some and fails at the end, go to Control Panel - Devices & Printers, and do the things I said on my last post in there.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] OSNPA:
Nah, man. It's just complete fail, it sits at 'searching for new devices' and doesn't so squat. I power the headset on, off, scan for pairing devices, repeat, I have re-installed the drivers for the usb bluetooth dongle, the latest from the website, the ones on the disk, I've tried ones recommended from reading various forums about it. I even installed Blusoid or whatever it's called, overwriting the default drivers. IIRC, it saw the device, but wouldn't connect, I can try your method with that. That's the closest to working that I have gotten.

2. Also, if I would use Revolutionary and HTC decides to push out an unlocked bootrom, can I switch to that one afterwards?

3. If the above is true, would some well-experienced user post a guide how to gain factory-like phone ?

[General Questions and Answers] Northwoods:
I will soon be on my 3rd HTC HD2 phone from T-Mobile. And I've had more problems with this particular phone than any other phone I've ever used. The first HTC phone had freezing camera issues that could not be resolved by updating the rom or doing anything else for that matter. Since I hadn't had the phone that long I just sent it back to T-Mobile to avoid dealing with the headache.

My second HTC phone will hardlock on the "stick together T-Mobile screen" after running the camcorder for a few minutes. The battery has to be removed to make another attempt at booting the phone up. I have 2 batteries and get the same results from both. Hardlocking at the stick together screen? Strangely enough today I asked a co-worker if I could try her battery and I didn't get any lockups. And furthermore she tried my battery and there were no lockups. My mind is a little boggled but my 3rd HTC HD2 phone is on it's way.

Now... here's the thing I'm not interested in owning another HTC HD2, so I have been doing some research and came across the Nokia E-71. I feel this phone will fit my needs and I'm hoping for better reliability as I have never had any problems with Nokia. (not to mention this phone from what I read got great reviews.) I guess what I'm asking is there anything I should be on the lookout for if I decide to purchase this phone (cheap ripoff clones, etc ) Anyone know if the wal-mart straight talk versions are gimped in quality compared to the original unlocked Nokia E-71. If so, where would be a good place to purchase one?

Thanks
