I bought a USB connecyion kit and use a small USB stick. I also use it for backing up data so that when I do a hard reset on my Tab I ca njust plug the USB stick in and restore all data using Titanium Backup.
[Omnia II General] l3ong91:
I wonder why you get these problems.

1. Sd card is working well and detectable if you set to the correct mounting point.

2. I only heard about battery draining, this was the first time I heard battery unable not recharge.

3. Wifi. Yes, I do agree to a certain extent. Sometimes it may not work, but most of the time it works flawlessly.

4. Download from Market is not a big issue. The contents are downloadable but not all apps are working yet on our phone due to unsupported 2d/3d library files and the processor.

I guess you are using the official installation? My best suggestion to you is to try manual/ automated installation using Froyo Bundle Package by Ritchietos. That should fix all these problems listed above.

Maybe we might see some unlocked boot loaders then.
[Droid 2 Global General] The Old One:
Google has lost a lot of my respect and at this point I find it unlikely they will do anything for us or even the droid 3. More likely moto knew this was comming so told us they would be unlocking devices knowing it soon would be out of there hands. I'd bet google won't even give us the code for blur.
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
Something tells me people these days don't even read.

Motorola Mobility remains a separate business.

This means that everything Motorola owns stays its own. I also would bet that the management won't change as well. Blur is Motorola's “image”, their UI trademark. Why would they open it?

Nothing will be out of Motorola's hands. It's just that with this acquisition, unlocking becomes something that is more likely to happen than before.

gogle need motorola for their patents to fight the patent lawsuits
[Droid 2 Global General] mactherapy:
I think Google are getting tired of having their butts kicked in the patent war, the only defense is a strong offence, they are just looking to increase their ability to counter MS and the other companies who are going after Android.

Having said that I seriously doubt that Google are not planning something else.

I would guess that they might well push for unlocked boot loaders, they could point to it as a reason why they are still different and not just another Apple/Ms.

I suspect they realise that with a combination of Motorola for hardware and Android for OS and tight control and integration between the 2 they could make a mainstream iPhone killer a reality quickly, and be the ones that profit from it.

To a great extent it seems to me that the manufacturers of many android devices are spoiling the potential for the OS with their marketing/attempts to be different/incompetence/lack of vision . One would have to assume that a device that has the same people in charge or the OS and hardware would kick ass.

Unfortunately the biggest winners are probably going to be the patent lawyers, sigh...

[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
I am actually looking forward to the implications this may have. Google will be able to have a direct say in more phones than just the Nexus series. Things like NFC will be able to become more prominent. And I hope that the unlocked bootloaders that Motorola promised and that the Nexus series sports will become an industry standard for Android phones (it slowly looks like this may already be happening).

But, I do hope that this doesn't exclude other manufacturers from participating in the Nexus program. I loved the fact that Google wasn't tied to one specific manufacturer. I really hope that will continue.

Seems like the next NEXUS phone is going to be a Motorola Nexus :D

that might actually be a good thing for Motorola owners, which had horrible to no support for software upgrades with each phone they buy

you are lucky to get a new firmware if ever, in the past.

So after Google taking over, i can see a lot more frequent upgrades for all future handsets, and unlocked bootloader

Excellent! Hopefully Google will axe MotoBlur (or whatever they call it these days) and we can start seeing motorola hardware with stock android. :D

[Nexus S General] amosher13:
i think this is a good thing. first, it gives google some patent strength which they need to keep doing what they are doing with android. they did say that nothing will really change, as far as, motorola mobility is not going to become 'part' of google but will be a separate business and will license android just like everyone else, just owned by google.

but yes of course it lends an intimacy which will in turn strengthen moto handsets and hopefully push all hardware manufacturers to have to keep in step. and yes hopefully that means more stock android devices all around! i dont htink it would be in anyones best interest if goog shows favoritism to moto though, so hopefully they will not. in the end, whatever is good for android will be good for all of us :)
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
Lets not get ahead of ourselves... I'm sure a transaction of this size will require regulatory approval from the U.S. and EU... and you can BET that the anti-Android crowd will try to intervene, a la Sprint w.r.t. the T-mobile acquisition.

I'm confident it'll go through, but it's not a done deal yet.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
It's pretty much a done deal. Not one reason it wouldn't go through

Have to say didnt see this one coming. Though, will be interesting to see how the other MFG's react. I am sure on one hand having google in control of the patent war chest is a good thing for them but to be the Hardware and Software mfg that is gonna make them uneasy for sure. Also the mfg have been fighting a number of wars for google over android, time will tell.

I am excited, have always liked moto products though now that i just bought my nexus s 4g i will be waiting a bit lol.

I am more interested in if they can bang out an ice cream sandwich tablet before years end :)

The Rahl.
[Nexus S General] uansari1:
Maybe not one reason that you see..but you can assume Apple, Microsoft, et al, will have numerous reasons to argue against it. Like I said, I'm confident it'll be approved, but not without a fight.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
Definitely not without a fight but guaranteed the fight will be lost to those attacking.
[Nexus S General] rentaric:
It's not like Google is getting any monopole from buying Motorola mobile. I see no reason Apple, Microsoft whoeever spending even a buck on trying to argue against the deal.
[Nexus S General] Windst:
I highly doubt it will be called a Nexus Prime.

Prime meaning one.

Nexus Prime being an Autobot of many autobots, it would have to have an autobot symbol.

Prime would also mean its prime.

Sounds cool for a weeaboo with a skull flame themed phone, but it wont be called a nexus prime

spread the word.

Aren't you making the same point as i just did??? OP said Google was buying "motorola" and we both corrected him. ???

3 is a prime number and this would be the 3rd Nexus. :)
[Nexus S General] deeren:
do not take every word out seriously. remember google saying that they would not continue nexus line after the n1?

i believe he said that because the nexus prime probably would not be motorola but the next ones would surely be.

i would love to see the nexus line done by motorola. great hardware, qHD screen without bloatware os.

also, google's acquisition means also that motorola would be obliged to update their lines faster and more regularly , thus pressurising the other OEMs such as samsung n htc to do so in the same timely manner.

Technically, I think he said there wouldn't be a Nexus 2, which so far has proven true (they called it the Nexus S instead - cheeky). I remember thinking when he said it that there's a big difference between there won't be another Nexus phone and there won't be a Nexus 2.

Doesn't matter. We know the nexus line will continue and motorola may be a player in it some day. That's all we know...

As long as Android development remains open it should be fine - but if that becomes more and more Google-Motorola oriented, HTC and Samsung might have to find som other OS for their mobiles. But would Google want that ? Probably not.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
After careful consideration, I decided to purchase both the Case-Mate Tough & SGP Neo Hybrid cases for my liking.

Anyhow, I also wanted to decide on a screen protector. The Neo Hybrid case should come with a SGP Ultra Crystal. Reviewing the specs on the website, it seems to be the "thickest" screen protector that would offer the most robust protection. That's great! I could care less for fingerprints... I'm just paranoid that I'll damage my beautiful screen!

Anyhow, I wanted to know how good the SGP Ultra Crystal SP is? For all you that have it, is it a good SP? Coming from a Zagg InvisibleShield on my other phones, I was just worried that wet applicators could damage my $700 phone (yikes!). Thus, I wanted to stick with dry, but still also have good scratch protection. What amazed me was that the Neo Hybrid case actually COMES with that SP... so a double bonus.

I am just wondering for all those people who either have Case-Mate Tough or SGP Neo Hybrid cases (or both!) and/or use the SGP Ultra Crystal SP... (or those that JUST use the SP and another case that I have not mentioned). What are your thoughts? Is it scratch-proof? Is it safe to use? Does it peel up? Any case fitting problems either? Do you have any problems with it?

I've never used anything from SGP at all before. The only SP I've ever used was the InvisibleShield that had to be professionally installed (at a fee!) by the Zagg guys at my local malls, so I'll have to learn how to install the SGP screen protectors.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] MeanWoman:
I'm not sure where you're getting the thickest cuz it certainly is the thinnest from way I've used. I had zagg and it was thick and not smooth. The sgp ultra crystal is smooth and thin and gives the estate clarity.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] pharaohdk:
I´ve used a SGP crystal for my SGS1 and had it one from when i bought it and to when I gave it to my gf (it´s still on) and have been on for 1 year so far.

no straches, no air bubbles, dosnt peel. very close fit.

And I guess its the same for a SGSII, already ordered one, and waiting for it to arrive for my phone :)

I have the sgp ultra fine and it is amazing, the only problem I have found is that if you're looking at one solid colour, it seems to have lots of speckles over it, but that is rarely noticeable.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
According to SGP's main website and their specifications, it states that the Ultra Crystal:

"25% Thicker than Previous Model, Hard coated for Scratches and Scuffs Proof, Ultimate Clarity surface hardness: 4H."

All the other models (i.e., Optics, Fine, Oleophobic) did not have this saying and also had a lower hardness (3H). Thus, I figured the Ultra Crystal would be the thickest based on these specifications and would be most protected against scratches.

I'm just really looking for people who have had or did not have problems with this SP.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] qw_haoyun:
good screen protector,i am using on my phone and very happy with it
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
Thanks for the replies and updates. A few more questions for those who are using/or had the SGP Ultra Crystal screen protector.

Any of yours staying still? Is it really tight? No peeling at all?

And also, according to the reviews, it seems some people are finding it to NOT be scratch resistant at all? Maybe they had an older version? The specs did say "25% thicker than the previous/original" which leads me to believe they may have revised it? It seems 50/50 or split between whether some people think this SP is too thin/easily scratched or not.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] RMXO:
I have a SGP SP on my SGS2 w/ a Neo Hybrid case and it's worth it.

I got mine installed at an AT&T store. I just brought it in & asked them if they could install it for me. Everything was done perfectly in less than 10mins.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] m0rtiis:
It sits perfectly still, there's no peeling at all after three months and I don't see it happening any time soon.

I don't find it scratch-prone at all either, though I don't keep it in the same pocket as my keys. Im very happy with my choice of screen protector.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Sleepycat3:
Using the Ultra Crystal and have Zagg on my other phones. I certainly prefer the Ultra Crystal. It is also not thick. The Zagg feels thicker. Protects very well too.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
Using the Ultra Crystal and I must say it was super easy to install. It's very clear and nice to the touch for me. Almost reminds me of my iPod's Power Support Crystal Clear screen protector, except the oil stains are way less visible on the SGP one, at least for me.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
Thanks again guys for your reviews.

When did you all purchase your SGP Ultra Crystal? I am trying to decipher whether there's an older versus newer version, and what the differences are. I've e-mailed SGP and they're stating that the previous model was not as thick as the newer ones, so...

How new are these "newer" versions? I am not sure.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
Well I've never seen the older version before, they always had the newer one listed this year on their site for a long time.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] audilogic:
just purchased the ultra crystal and after 3 days of usage, there's a scratch on my protector and I don't keep my phone with my keys or coins. Not a big deal though, because the clarity of the protector is really good and the fingerprints stain aren't as bad as I expected it to be.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Disfected:
Wow, I'm quite curious how you got a scratch on it.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] audilogic:
to be honest i have no idea either. Its a really fine light scratch which can only be seen when looking at it under the light.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
I'm curious as well. I've used a Zagg before, and it rarely scratches. Maybe once a year, it may get a small nick somehow and stays permanent. The Zagg guys call it a "burn" a.k.a. a super fast scratch. So I guess all screen protectors may be vulnerable to this.

Anyhow, I have ordered a case + one set of the SPs, so that means I should be getting 3 total Ultra Crystal screen protectors (1 from case package and 2 from the actual SP set). I'm trying to determine whether some are more scratch-prone than others. I'm paranoid when it comes to protecting my screen.

Did your scratch get deep enough onto the actual phone?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] audilogic:
nope. the scratch is not deep enough to get onto my phone thankfully. it looks very much like a really really fine scratch that can only be seen under the light. However, its probably due to me being too picky about it. I recently placed an order or the oleophobic sp instead. shall see how it goes when it arrives. :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Alazarin:
Yeah, I figured I went with the Ultra Crystal as opposed to the other SPs (like Oleophobic, Fine, etc) because its hardness was rated highest (4H) as compared to the others (3H). The fact that it was designed for "extra scuff/scratch" protection made me get it over the other SGP screen protectors.

So I figure Oleophobic may offer better fingerprint resistance, but maybe more scratch prone? Hmm... :confused:
