This free calling/messaging app works great on my Droid Charge (well, the messaging is great, sound quality for calls is variable...VERY variable).

Recent versions on my tablet just crashed before opening but recent upgrade lets me launch the program which requests my phone number. I've tried my cell # and Google Voice # but each generates an error message. Anyone made this work?

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Viber Team:
Hi,

This is a member of the Viber Development Team.

First, about the network, I'm guessing the quality is variable when using Viber on 3G networks, right?

3G networks can sometimes be disrupted and not fully handle VoIP calls (some would say - intentionally). This naturally affects Viber and damages its quality, and unfortunately there is nothing much we (Viber) can do about it - it's in the hands of the cellular companies.

In the future we plan to add an option to manually "lower" the quality of Viber calls on 3G calls, thus "sacrificing" on quality in order to still be able to still make calls on low-reception 3G areas.

Anyway, a WiFi-WiFi call on Viber should sound clear and with no interruptions.

Second, about Tablets - Viber doesn't officially support Tablets yet (this is why you're not managing to complete the installation). It's in the works right now, and we'll announce once it's ready on our Facebook page, and in different forums.

If you have any more questions, please feel free :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HarrisY:
So I was using Odin to flash the stock JFD to fix a soft brick. Everything went through and flashed just fine, no issues. I've done this dozens of times before, on several different devices, so I'm pretty familiar with the process. After the phone flashed, the screen switches to some weird distorted screen for a couple seconds and then it boots. It boots up fine, and when I get to the home screen, it'll just shut off and go back to the distorted image, then another boot. This will repeat 20 times if I let it. Any ideas of what might be the issue? Let me know. Thanks.

Did it have the gingerbread bootloaders?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HarrisY:
I really couldn't tell you. I'm just helping out a friend who said he tried to flash a ROM using Odin but screwed up. I'm pretty sure he tried to flash a SGS4G ROM, thus the soft brick.

EDIT: Just flashed the stock bootloader and no more issue. Guess I overlooked that. Thanks for the tip!

It started happening maybe 2 days ago. Im running the newest version of Hyperdroid and have never had any problems. Whenever i turn my phone on and attempt to unlock it by either sliding the tab, turning the dial, or sliding the lense down, the screen doesnt respond to my touch. I have to try like 3 times before i can finally unlock my phone, its super annoying.

Anyone have a fix for this or advice?

Thanks!!

Does anyone think they could modify this boot animation to fit properly on our screens... it seems quite shrunken on mine and needs modifying.

If we could do the portrait and landscape versions that would be awesome. If not, I understand.

Here's a link to the original.

Hi All,

I tried to usb-unbrick my rooted phone some solutions, but the phone still usb-bricked. The sd card access is working, but the usb works only fastboot. ADB is not working.

I tried this solution http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=751265 but nothing has changed. I flashed the mtd0.img again and again. I have not got error messages and the fatboot oem boot result seems ok.

After this I unrooted the phone to the original stock rom like this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9889284&postcount=60 , but I still haven't got usb.

I would get the notification from light flow. But no symbol from handcent and no text, I have verified that i have missed texts and it was not just light flow malfunctioning. I have updated my prl and flashed the latest radios but still ill only recieve a few texts.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

This is serious i cant take this amount of lag it is very choppy???

When i scroll through here with the normal browser it scroll very laggy and choppy.

My Iphone 3GS does better its very choppy i cant look at it anymore,

i keep delaying my review as the phone till now sucks ass..
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Where is the question in that statement?
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Yes, I get choppy lag while scrolling through the XDA app, or also on the market. It is annoying.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Figure out which app is causing it and close it. Pulse Is usually what causes mine to do that.
[HTC EVO 3D] vinscuzzy:
Look at the bottom of the page and change the skin/style from XDA 2010 to XDA classic. HUGE difference! Plus it feels like home......

oh i thought it was only me..

well not it seems,

why does the iphone scroll better?
[HTC EVO 3D] Sh0wNuF:
Cuz the iPhone uses a different browser as stock...use a 3rd party browser, I find miren to be the best
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
Just did it, I forgot about the piss yellow and doo doo brown theme lol, but yea the choppy scrolling is gone. I always thought its because of the huge animated banners.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
It's funny i was about to ask about this..I've gotten slow.lag scrolling sometimes and other times not..im rooted and oc'd to 1.8 using setcpu (until I can figure out the daemon) ..I noticed whenever I lagged setcpu had my CPU running like 300mhz..even when set to performance. All I want is for my CPU to go to the speed i select when the screen is on and back down when its off ..but instead it seems to bounce around too much..I noticed when I turn up both freqs up to 1.8 my browser is butter smooth..I get about 8000 in cf bench.. I wish I can get it to stay like that without having to keep it running so high while sleeping
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Well my iPhone is smoother as well but actually is not the evo only is android in general, even tho I have a 3d and a nexus s the nexus seems to kick as out the 3d lol, anyways here is something you can read that way you understand why android is laggy

Hmm...i didnt expect this from google.

Thats nowaday a crappy way of desinging a OS.

[HTC EVO 3D] enoch861:
Makes sense.

Have you seen Windows Phone 7? It's sooooooo smooth its not even funny. I mean, it makes me smile every time I'm typing a text message and I switch it to landscape mode. In fact I switch between them because it just makes me smile.

On Android on the other hand.... its just plain bad and choppy even on a dual core device.

The accelerometer has always been one thing that I absolutely hate about Android. Its way too slow. On Windows Phone 7 its INSTANT. On Android its a wait of between 2-5 seconds. Very annoying. And when it finally changes orientation, the transition is crap. It doesn't even exist! (Although Motorola has added one in its Gingerbread builds)
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
At what point did you guys think this was new? I'm curious because this is a known issue that there is no/limited hardware acceleration like iPhone and WP7.

Sent from my Shooter.
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Yeah I had play with windows 7 really nice ui no as big as android but smooth as hell, hopefully ice cream fixes most of the complaints so I hope, only reason I have the nexus s is to try ICS lol
[HTC EVO 3D] enoch861:
Well sir, bad news for you : your gonna be waiting for awhile for ICS. At least officially.

But yes ICS should fix most of the problems. I still wonder if it will ever reach iPhone/WP7 smoothness.

Microsoft did one thing right with WP7: they made sure it ran the same no matter what hardware you were using. Including the unsupported HD2 haha.
[HTC EVO 3D] borgqueenx:
Any rumours or posts that give a hint that ice cream sandwich will fix the lag and add more hardware acceleration?

I've tried all four types of USB connection. I have used the Motorola Driver Installer and it does not help. I've restarted the PC and phone several times, CCleaned it, no dice.

My phone used to bring up the Motorola Phone Portal in my browser, now it doesn't. It also doesn't show as a device in 'Computer' where it would normally be.

Yes, I've tried it in all modes, still gives me the little popup I've screenshotted above :( Also the "usb device not recognized" bubble comes up instantly when the phone is plugged in or is switching modes.

I've got 3 sets of cables here and none are working, all the same issue.

Is there something on the phone that I can reset or something?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
Are any of those three cords the one that came with the phone?

Have you tried plugging into one of the rear ports of the computer?

Do you have a task killer that is "auto-ending" any apps?

Have you tried toggling between USB Debugging on/off?

When using MotoHelper, did you try the "Clean" option?

I'm really out of suggestions. :confused: Hopefully someone else can jump in.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
The last thing I can suggest would be to try another Motorola cable. If that doesn't work then it could be a faulty connector on the phone itself.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just went back and saw you already have another Moto cable.

It could actually be you're phone's side. Just try it on another computer and see if you get the same message. If you do it might be the USB port on the phone is faulty...

[HTC EVO 3D] triscuit1983:
Thats more or less up to you. I'd say keep your most recent nandroid. If have games and you had to download the SD files, keep those so you don't have to download them again. Maybe keep the htcwatch portion of the .data folder if you want to keep the Green Hornet movie on your SD. Everything else is usually written to the SD as needed.

try this: go to settings/applications/ find wifi tether and move to sd then move to phone, try again.

If no/go uninstall the app then reinstall.

if still no/go change ROMs or see if there's an update.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Also you might want to see about updating your Superuser too. If you are using cLK, you can do this by downloading the free version of ROM Manager from the Android Market then open it and select Download ROM and then select Extras then download and install the Superuser of your choice, I use v2.3.6.1..

Or if you use MAGLDR you can go to the Android Market and download the Superuser and install it. But you can only get v2.3.6.3 on the Market, you can get v3.0 Beta with ROM Manager but ROM Manager will not work with MAGLDR.

I mention the Superuser cause it fixed a problem I was having with my WiFi tethering once before.

[EVO 4G General] n00bhackin:
Google getting a bit upity about it's own apps.

Anyone else notice that most of the Google apps no longer have the "Allow Automatic updating" option anymore. The apps now are automatically set to auto update without giving you the option to uncheck it.

The check box does pop up when the app is downloading, not sure if the selection stays or not. But even after unchecking it, you still don't see it as an option for the app.

Guess Google now knows best and would never push a bad/broken app out.

Update: It looks like they won't automatically install, but damn annoying for Google to force this and not give an option to not download, especially for those (non-sprint users) that could have limited bandwidth.

[EVO 4G General] insert cust. service joke:
I once had my Evo rooted when it first came out, ran a rooted update and then did a full RUU (on the XDAwiki page) to unroot sometime around January of 2011. Since then I have ran a stock Evo, I have received and installed all OTA's from Sprint since and from what I can tell my phone is stock.

Over the last month I have been chasing down a new reception issue with my Evo. After two previous visits to two different Sprint repair facilities where I was told they performed a hard reset (pulled the battery) and updated profiles. Sprint phone service checked my local tower and "reset" it. On Tuesday I was told by phone based Sprint to take my phone in and start the insurance replacement process.

Yesterday I took my phone back into the same Sprint center that said they reset and updated my phone and was informed that I still had Superuser capabilities and my phone is rooted (which from what I can tell cannot still be the case)and therefore even though they previously claimed to have updated and worked on my phone now say they can't touch it. Sprint will send me a new phone with the caveat that I will be charged an indisputable 500 charge if my poorly functioning phone is determined to be rooted.

I have already run the RUU (in January) in the XDA Wiki to get it stock, what are my other options?

Will running it again change anything? Is there anything beyond running the RUU I need to focus on?

Thanks for any help provided.
