[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
Unfortunatly in the internet world, the best products, and better selling products only get air-time if someone is prepared to pay for air time..

I'm guessing if you ask an average joe on the street name a tablet that's not an iPad2, they will mention Galaxy Tab, or perhaps Xoom, despite the Transformer outselling both of them combined....

It's the messed up world we live in, where if you have plenty of cash, you can make the internet say what you want it to say, and hide what you want buried. Microsoft and Apple use this to great effect on a regular basis, covering up anything bad, highlighting the good...

For example, look at how stupid this review is: http://www.t3.com/feature/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-vs-ipad-2-vs-hp-touchpad

In the UK, we have a tech show for idiots called The Gadget Show, and it cherry-picks a handful of items to compare, using idiotic comparison critera. The main problem is, they rarely actually review the best items, they review the items pushed as freebies by manufacturers with the biggest promotional budgets.. Idiots of course don't understand this concept, and assume the most well-known products must be the best products...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
A couple of thoughts.

First, the General forum is the wrong place for this post, Accessories would be better.

Second, skin usage would be less with a TF because a lot of people dock it and form a netbook which is kept in a netbook case.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
I think more Xooms and Tabs have been sold than the Transformer, actually. But, I think that was mostly due to the supply problems Asus had for a while?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] npompei:
The Transformer is the #1 selling Android tablet to date. Imagine if not the shortage issues, but who knows.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Camaros_Kill:
The Xoom was a complete failure sales wise, actually.
[Xoom General] PeepoTurton:
I have quickly had a look round but did not see any other threads relating to this. Last night my UK Carphone Warehouse Xoom said it had and update available and pointed me to http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Support/GB-EN/TABLETS/MZ601/Xoom3G_MR1_UK_Release_Notes_UK.htm for more information. I installed this and got a pop up when it rebooted saying it was successful. However nothing has appears to have changed, I am still on 3.0.1 and when I go to check for new updates again it says my device is up to date. I was wondering if anyone else had any more luck or know how to force the Xoom to try the install again. I would take it into a Carphone Warehouse store to ask but they appear to be all on fire.

*Update*

The xoom downloaded a second update around lunch time today and I'm now running 3.1 :D
[Xoom General] Stotherd:
I got the same update this morning, I suspect it was a small preparation update, and 3.1 should be right around the corner
[Xoom General] Stotherd:
Pretty sure I'm downloading the 3.1 update now. It matches the update code in the guide you linked.
[Xoom General] dstanek1971:
Recharge the battery above 50% then will begin the second phase of the installation.
[Xoom General] sirius b:
Seriously? I just updated to 3.2 on 21% battery while charging. If that's true that's just strange.
[Xoom General] Stotherd:
Now fully updated to 3.1, give it time and hit the search for updates regularly and it'll eventually popup.

Seems noticably smoother, more responsive, and less laggy.
[Xoom General] mattfigaro:
I got the same message this morning. Proceeded to download and install update, and it hung about 1/4 way through. Now just sat at screen with an android next to an exclamation mark.

UK 3g rooted, CWM etc

Dont know what to do now?

Reflash nandroid and try again, gets the same results.
[Xoom General] derksend:
Today my dutch XOOM got te 3.1 update
[Xoom General] silverball.slayer:
Still waiting in Canada

oh well
[Xoom General] lordao:
I think you have to be bootloader locked, not rooted and on stock for an OTA to work correctly.

Lordao
[Xoom General] mattfigaro:
Ok, rooted and bootloader unlocked.

Any other way to apply the updates ?
[Xoom General] lordao:
relock bootloader and go back to stock basically.

[Xoom General] ukc101:
Uk XOOM locked an stock 3g from carphone warehouse but no update.

Cold started loads, checked update in about and even changed the date but cant pull updated.

Anyone got any advice as im desperate for the update?
[Xoom General] rxkhan:
stock 3g got the ota update 30mins ago noticeable difference in performance much much better experience all round.
[Xoom General] lilikin:
a few issues

UK 3G unrooted or touched in anyway here is my feedback

Pro's

1. Web browser quick keys are all the more better and make it a glory to use

Con's

1. a few apps wont open NVidia app and marketplace just freezes up

2. More importantly my connectivity has been seriously reduced last night I was tethering all night playing minecraft beta and now its just giving me the no internet connection all the time on 3G or when near WiFi the exact same problem

any thoughts?
[Xoom General] Dogmann:
Hi all,

Last night got the smaller update first and then after a reboot was advised to have a charging or fully charged battery and to proceed with the 2nd update over WiFi which i did. All went well all my apps and settings where still intact and i now have a working SD card otherwise haven't really noticed any differences as using ADW EX mine was already smooth and fast but i have no issues caused by this update. I have a UK Xoom from CPW runnning on a Talkmobile Sim.

[Xoom General] kapeedp:
Hi guys,

a quick question.

I have a rooted Xoom which has 3.2 tiamat Rom 2.1 Hammerhead

Will I still receive the 3.1 original update from Motorola?

i live in london.

cheers

[Xoom General] @lbert:
Personally, until someone who has gone through the OTA install and played with the UK 3.1, I'm not touching this with a barge pole. Hammerhead 2.1 is fantastic and we need to find if there are any advantages to backtracking to 3.1 in my opinion. The hassle of relocking and unrooting is too much without knowing the benefits. :eek::rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aqua-Niki:
Hi every one, I flashed Hellcat's kernel this night (flashing zImage via CWM app) and something went wrong. Since that, the phone stays on the boot logo every time I try to start it. Since the kernel did not flash correctly, no CWM. Problem is, I left it to charge over the night, but instead I found it this morning with no battery left. Is there a way to charge my battery or flash without a battery, or am I gonna have to ask a friend to lend me his battery (or charge mine) ?
[HTC EVO 3D] napoleontheruler:
does anyone have a list of compatible roms that will allow this app to run on the evo 3d?
[HTC EVO 3D] pamplinas:
There is a compatibility checker on the market.
[HTC EVO 3D] napoleontheruler:
yea i know but instead of flashing every rom it would be easier to just have a list
[HTC EVO 3D] spenceizzle:
I'm fairly sure that it won't work on any rom until we get an AOSP based rom. HTC for some reason didn't include the bluetooth HID (Human Interface Devices) module needed to let things like bluetooth keyboards, mice, and controllers work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Drewmungus:
I thought I read somewhere they did something different with the bluetooth stack on the 3d besides being 3.0. Like it has HID but it's still kinda screwed up

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
Hi,

I'm using HTC Desire Z about 3 days but I have a serious issue.

My phone sometimes (f.e. if its screen locked for a long time) doesn't respond to me. I'm trying to open it with power button, no response. First when I saw this, I thought because of low battery but when I try to recharge still no response.

The phone only works if I remove battery for 3-5 seconds and insert again.

I have no clue what (or which program) does that.

I'm using stock rom 2.2.1. Here is my widgets: Agenda, messages, friend stream, watch with 8 shortcuts, bookmarks (visual one), gReader Pro, Grooveshark, PowerAMP, Radio.

Also I installed some other installed applications: Youtube, simple Last.FM scrobbler, Lyrics APP, Advanced Task Manager, Diversion, NASA App, Wikipedia, Google SKY, Zaytung (Turkish site app, like news site), Facebook for Android, Tunewiki, Kindle, Connectbot, Meebo IM, Alchemy, Angry Birds, MoboPlayer, RockPlayer, IMDB, Foursquare, Goggles, Skype, Dropbox, Barcode Scanner, WhatsApp Messenger, Camera360, MangaWatcher, PaperCamera, Photaf, Piacas Tool, Raging Thunder 2, Wifi File Explorer.

I'm using pattern lock for screen lock.

One last thing, this happened after I forgot my phone at charge for 7-8 hours. But this is its 2nd charge. And after charge I've transfer some data to phone (I've 8gig sd card, now there is approx. 32mb free at SD, 818MB free at internal storage). Maybe I should remove some files from my SD Card?

That's all. What can I do?

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
are you rooted, and over or under clocking?

Your SDcard being almost full shouldn't be any kind of issue. What kind of free phone storage do you have? And what amount of free RAM do you have when your phone is just sitting at a homescreen?

If you're not overclocked or rooted, it sounds like you might be looking at some sort of either super poorly coded app (or combination of apps) thats crashing your phone while its sleeping, or you have a hardware defect
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
No, like I said before I'm using stock rom and I do nothing except installing app and transferring some files (music, video etc. to SD card)

32mb free at SD, 818MB free at internal storage. Now, I opened advanced task manager and I have 111M free RAM. And I see there is a lot of application running. (including skype, whatsapp, grooveshark etc.)

I read something like that from another phone. They do factory data reset and It fixes that issue. I didn't try but they say.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Thanks for the info. So if your phone is completely stock and its crashing while sleeping, it looks to be an issue with an app or bad combo of apps. You can try to troubleshoot on your own by uninstalling or monitoring apps, or you can always do a factory reset and start over, hoping to fix the issue. I personally would try to troubleshoot some recently installed apps or large changes you've made before you decide to bother with a full factory reset.

Also on a side note, ditch the advanced task killer. Its not necessary on anything over Android 2.1, and drains more resources and can actually cause problems. If you want to know what's going on with your apps, use something like Watchdog Lite (which I use), that monitors apps and informs you if they're misbehaving above normal levels, but never kills or changes any apps without your approval.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
Yes, I'm thinking on monitoring applications but is there a way to look the report after phone crashes? Trying Watchdog.

Let's try that way.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
Now, I'm using watchdog for 10 hours. Archive Viewer (normally) and News exceeded threshold. I looked at News. (actually it is Google reader) It tries to sync my Google reader account and in my account there are a lot of items (and a lot of unread ones, subscribed to 35 site, each one has min. 1000 unread item and min. (unread count)*3 read items, I suppose)

Maybe this application causes this problem. I closed syncing (I'm already using gReader) and I hope this will fix my problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Yea that sounds like it might be an issue (but you never know). Basically what can be happening is that its overwhelming the phone while sleeping and its crashing, and there's not enough CPU power to turn on the screen or wake up.

Also, don't know of any way to get a log of your crashes without root. Someone else can chime in if they know.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
Also, when phone crashed I tried to call my phone number and the phone doesn't ring (it says can not be reached). So, It totally closes the phone after crashes. But, the interesting thing is I'm unable to open with its power button. I think this is because phone's fast boot option is enabled. That may can explain why power button doesn't work and removing and inserting battery works.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mesutcank:
Hi again,

I talked with another desire z owner who has that problem. He said that if you use navigation and turn off gps sattelite from settings and lock screen. Phone crashes. I tried that. And phone crashed :(.

So, I'm planning to ask for replacement from store.

What else can I do?

[Touch HD General] kulwant:
My phone had screen calibration problems on my ol' windows so i decided to reinstall it but now it's stuck on Tap the screen and won't go any further no matter how hard i tap the screen. the power and volume buttons are working though.

I left the phone for a day to make the OS settles down but still it won't get any further. I've also performed hard reset but still nothing goes.

I'm using windows xp sp3

microsoft active sync 4.5

maryone/wwe shipped rom

Please suggest what could be the possibility behind it not working right :confused:.
[Touch HD General] Bodisson:
Sounds like digitizer problem... service is my prediction.

However, if you can try flashing it again...

Task 29, then original 6.1 ROM, then try again with custom ROM if original ROM is working.

If original ROM is stuck too, then think about service or new phone...
[Touch HD General] ypsmav:
my ROM skips the calibration screen. You can try these to check if there is an actual problem with the digitalizer, but it looks that you will have to repair (or scrap).

You should post on the general forum, not on the ROM development.

There are many post over there about broken digitalizers.
[Touch HD General] Chef_Tony:
I agree probably you will have to replace the digitizer. But the screen alignment can be overly picky. You can skip that screen by creating an empty text file on your pc, renaming it from "untitled.txt" to "welcome.not" and putting it in the root of the sd card and performing a hard reset. That file will cause the device to skip the out of the box experience including the screen alignment.

That way, you can still use your device if the digitizer is just off by a few millimeters.

I've flashed Alien # 3 (and proper kernel) into my Thailand Atrix. The problem is EDGE icon always showing up even I have deleted all the APNs, though.

I've checked with the operator already that no data transferred from my device.

But this problem is disappear when I used latest Orange FR rom. I've tried many other roms out there in the development section. But all of it come along with this problem.

Please help me to find the cause of this problem and how to get rid of this annoyance.
