Well I hate to get rid of my photon but saving 100 is quite appealing.

My wife has an upgrade on her line... I was going to go use her upgrade... I then deactivate right when I left the store then activate it on my line.

Then go take this one back to the sprint store.

Seems like a lot of work for 100... Hmmmm

Glad it's helping! I couldn't get my $100 back (yet) cause they said I was 2 days too late on my 30 day policy, but I'm sickin my Fiancee on em tomorrow! Sick balls, chopper!

Pew! Pew! Pew! From my Mo-Pho!

Just got a refund from Best Buy. Took my receipt to the customer service counter, said that I saw the phone for $100 less, and asked if I could get the difference back. She refunded the $100 no questions asked.

My original purchase was an upgrade, not a new contract.
[Motorola Photon 4G] J_Bone:
I ordered mine through my Customer Care rep about a week ago. I called her back this morning to see what she could do and she said that I would need to return the one I have to a store or she could send me a return envelope. I was hoping they could just price match a credit for me. Oh well.

Now my worry is...my current phone is working great. I will prbly go return this one and stop by Best Buy and get one that's bunked.

Worth a $100 risk though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jorjitoc:
I just bought my Photon at Best Buy as an upgrade and got it for $99 and they also gave me a free Zagg Invisible Shield screen protector. I saw the stock of phones in their closet and they all (the Photons) had Zagg boxes rubber-banded to the Photon boxes so anyone buying a Photon from Best Buy gets the phone for $99 and a free screen protector. They even had them pre-installed on the phones and when they saw that there was a hair under my screen protector they pulled it off and re-applied a brand new shield.

I traded in my Evo for $126 (just gave them the phone and the box; no cable, charger or memory card) so the Photon cost me nothing and I have $19 left on my Best Buy card after tax.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kjones2k1:
Returning my photon to the Sprint store today and picking one up from Best Buy.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jjday7:
Looks like the price is being changed in stores today so it should be very easy to get that 100 back from bestbuy. They were changing out the price when I was there. What a great deal. I just came back to the photon after my little expo with the NExus S. Glad to be back. I can finally retire my Evo now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] IP IHI II IL:
Best Buy wouldn't refund my $100, but my Fiancee got them to send me a $90 gift card. At least now I can get the dock for free, right? Or the Otter Box defender I want (when they start carrying it)...

Pew! Pew! Pew! From my Mo-Pho!
[Motorola Photon 4G] sd7318:
Have to be within 30 days but they should pricematch if it was a new or upgrade and not an outright sale.. it's our policy.

Oh and make sure you guys get the protection plan, we cover bricking issues :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] sd7318:
Not that I really care that customers come to you guys but I have my guys tell customers to always to come to our store for support, possibly you are near a store without the best employees. We try to take ownership of the 2 yr contract and make them come to us for any issue as like you, I have a list of complaints from the Sprint store near us. As for the d-bag comment, lets just say you're lucky you are hiding behind a monitor, big words on the web man.

As for our coverage, we have an option for repair but we push hard for people to just get a replacement in 2 days.. oh and unlimited # of replacements per year and no deductible. But ours must be terrible cause you can't work on the phone lol

And since when does a Zagg screenshield void a phones warranty? You have me confused on that one..

**Also to note, Best Buy Mobile is a subset of Best Buy.. different corporate teams and different trainings.. so you don't know how much training we get, assuming you must be a bitter Best Buy customer though Mobile is a different company (tied with carphone warehouse), it's why we are called a Store within a store.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cornelious2:
Wet applied screen protectors can trigger water indicators if done improperly and I've seen a ton of employees at bb do it really poorly.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sd7318:
Obviously I can't say for other stores but man, I'd be pissed if my guys had to soak a phone to install one lol

Anywho.. Moving on, back to pricematch topic guys.. $99 is awesome deal no matter where you get it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] IP IHI II IL:
Agreed! Which was the point to begin with...

Pew! Pew! Pew! From my Mo-Pho!
[Motorola Photon 4G] stormygal:
I had just picked my phone up last week on the 16th, Best Buy gave me the $100 credit today. I had printed off the BB.com page before I left home, but the store I was in also had a placard by the phone that detailed the $99.99 price across the board be it new customer, upgrade, add-a-line. (And when I hit the BB site from the MoPho, the $99.99 was detailed there too for an upgrade w/plan.)
[Motorola Photon 4G] andersonj55126:
Just got one for $99 from BB. Used the terminal emulator to root in 5min without PC.
[Motorola Photon 4G] evolart:
Awesome deal...I was waiting for the Epic Touch 4G (Galaxy Within / Galaxy S 2) but screw that...I already knew the Galaxy S2 was going to be more expensive.

Does anyone know about problems with this phone? My friend works at a phone store and claims this phone has a "bunch" of issues.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lonnydub:
Walked in and got my $100 back this morning.
[Motorola Photon 4G] lucidvtec:
I just got a 200 credit "I just bought 2 photons"

Had to speak to the store manager thou...I bought the phones at a sprint corporate store

Sprint is coming thru I also got a 125 port credit as well...plus he found out that the company I work for has discounts so I get 20% off my bill every month

Talk about service...I have never been sooooo happy
[Motorola Photon 4G] slag02:
how did you get Best buy to give you credit for a phone you bought at a sprint corp. store - Because I need to do the same thing
[Motorola Photon 4G] J_Bone:
I am on a corporate-corporate plan. Returned the one I had ordered through Sprint early this morning. Went to Best Buy later this afternoon to buy the $99 one (was waiting for my upgrade to show back up in the system).

Best Buy informed me that they could not process upgrades for corporate corporate members. They did get Sprint on the phone but couldn't make it work.

Now I am trying to get Sprint to credit the restocking fee, that I had to pay out of pocket. I had spoken with our rep before I made the return, to give them the chance to price match. Our rep told me my only option would be to do the return and order it through BB. Hopefully they will credit my account for the stocking fee, since I wasn't made aware of my correct options.

Any other corporate corporate members here?
[Motorola Photon 4G] itsmaka:
all im sayin

is that im JUICED to get 100 back!
[Motorola Photon 4G] foxracinggirl0209:
went into best buy and they did a price match.. 100 in my pocket.. i'm a happy camper!
[Motorola Photon 4G] 1NfE5T:
Well went to BB today with printout in hand. Couldn't get it for $99 bucks, wasn't eligible for an upgrade only half upgrade. Couldn't afford to pay $300 for the phone....sooo sad. I might have to sell off the epic and pay the diffrence. Anyone know a way to get it for $99 or just pay the half upgrade price?
[Motorola Photon 4G] BIGWORM:
I'm gonna have my wife walk into Best Buy tomorrow. I already have an account with two phones, but the plan is to have Sprint cancel the ETF on both lines, then I'll cancel one and grab the Photon from my wife setting up an account through BB tomorrow. =D

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisk121:
Hey, I have a Bell Desire Z that I purchased used and now realized has been modified in some way before. It was at some Froyo version, but then I applied the OTA gingerbread update because I did not know at the time that it was modified. It is carrier unlocked for sure. In the boot loader it has the following settings:

VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-0.85.0013

MICROP-0425

RADIO-26.10.04.12_M

eMMC-boot

Apr 11 2011, 23;36;27

So I assume it has S-Off, but it does not have root. I tried to run gingerbreak, but it just stayed at the rooting process screen for 15 minutes so I closed it. If I want to flash a CM7 rom, what will I need to do? Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilcuber:

I would be gratefull if you can give me some light on this matter, cause I am lost.

Many thanks,

Just a curiosity, maybe someone that has developed can chime in. What is the main difference between how wired tether and wireless tether in aosp roms works vs the 3g mobile hotspot that is baked into sense?

By that I mean I don't guess 3g hotspot would use rndis like stock aosp I'd imagine, so just curious what it does use

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
Hello,

Today I've been experiencing the following error with YouTube:

I can access the application fine, browse videos, search videos, access my YouTube account and favorites, etc... everything perfectly fine.

When I tap on a video it starts to load but then it stops and displays "Unable to connect to server - Touch to retry. If I do as it says, it just keeps that cycle.

Now I can stream videos just fine and prior to today I could watch videos without issues. My app version is 2.2.16.

Things I've tried:

1. Pulled out battery for 5 min.

2. Cleared app cache and data

3. Uninstalled the app and cleared Cache / dalvik in CWM then reinstalled

No luck. I haven't had any luck of it working under 3g or 4g, still haven't tested wifi (not at home at the moment, but will edit and report back).

I'm running Stock EH06 rooted odexed.

Attached is an extract of my alogcat that will have some fishy errors regarding Youtube, any assistance is my appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoulon:
your data connection might have been too slow where u tried.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yes, it may have been a bad data connection..ie down tower. I just tried same version on wifi and mine works. Try wifi and see how it works. If you delete the app, use root explorer and search for youtube to make sure you get all remnants of files as well then reinstall from the market.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
OK so its hard to believe that the whole state of MA is full of bad 3g / 4g internet towers, again, I can access internet just fin and normal speeds. (been driving around several towns and still the same result)

I got to a wifi location and it works... I will try deleting all instances and files I find from the app, but what other suggestions you guys may have if this doesn't work?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
All's I got after that Mega is to go to Youtube.com on your browser and try the same videos. If they work there then you know it is the app somehow. It updated last week so maybe uninstalling updates.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
Youtube viewed from the browser doen't work... strange, any other site I go that has streaming media works fine.

I'm doing a nandroid backup and going to re-flash.... lets see what happens then...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanderman112:
That's happened to me before, I had to take YouTube of of system/app, and put it in data/app, and it worked just fine after I rebooted.

Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
Tried it but YouTube was already located in data/app... so I did it the other way around and no dice.

I ended up reflashing the ROM and getting everything back up and running from scratch, and now everything works normally. Don't know what it was really but, must of been the amount of hacks I was performing over the weekend with it, something just didn't play nice with YouTube...

Thanks all for your time and efforts!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
I know that the latest version of Youtube is screwed up for our epics, which in that case you just uninstall updates and you're good to go.

Hmmm...I am on Bonsai B14 EG22 ROM and my Youtube updated and works fine. Must be another one of those half works half don't things.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
Guess so, the updated version didn't work for me on EC05 or EG22, but I'm not complaining since reversing the update remedies my issue.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoulon:
actually why haven't any of you thought "HAY YOUTUBE USES FLASH OMG"

go uninstall flash and youtube then try again =)

EDIT: also the version of youtube doesn't matter because they all work for all roms
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
Did that as well but no dice. After reinstalling the ROM everything worked fine.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] arpruss:
I've been really annoyed by the fact that one needs to swipe to switch pages in Overdrive, and I think the Kindle app also had the same issue. So I modified my mod of the Gingerbread keyboard to do paging in Overdrive and Kindle by pressing volume up/down, in the way that works in all decent ebook readers. :-)

If you want other apps to have this, let me know and I'll add them.

Eventually, I might add customization as to which apps get this.

http://code.google.com/p/oc-gb-keyboard/downloads/list

Alas, this won't work if you have some other favorite input method.

To use this, you need to enable the Gingerbread Keyboard in the device's Input Settings, and then you need to select the Gingerbread Keyboard as your input method, by long-tapping on an input field in some app.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scmguru:
I've confirmed this behavior on two tabs, one running 3.1 base and the other running 3.1 ux.

In apps like tapatalk or the amazon.com for android app, when i scroll through a list of items or topics the display brightness dims until the scrolling movement stops and the brightness returns to normal.

The difference isn't huge, but it's definitely clearly visible on both units I've tested and pretty distracting.

I tested with brightness set at auto and set at a fixed level and it happens either way.

I found a way to resolve this..

I found an option under Settings - Screen - Auto adjust screen power which is enabled by default (even if brightness is not at auto).

If I disable this, the brightness fluctuation stops.

Just thought I'd share..

I saved rezipped, then signed the apk and pushed to phone but only the large sun took right. The smaller ones that show below didnt change.

[Droid Incredible General] wildstang83:
Hi guys, I started this thread with the intent that the new users of our forum could first stop in and introduce their selves. They are the new blood around here and may very well have something useful to share with us! Use this thread as you see fit as long as you keep it clean and follow all the XDA rules;)

Enjoy!!!​

Here I'll start us off:

Hi my name is Josh. I'm 27, married to the best woman in the world. We have a beautiful 5yo daughter who is now in school. I have one dog, one wolf mix, a cat, a hamster and a tank full of minnows(my daughter said we are not allowed to use them as bait, lol) I am U.S. Army Medically Retired. I was a 91B(mechanic)(originally a 63W for you old heads) in the Army until I hurt my back. I've been to Iraq twice, Egypt once, and did maint support operations on the Port of Beaumont, Texas and the Port of Olympia in Washington. I was there while the riots where going on. I did enjoy serving my country and am very proud to have been given this special opportunity. Now that I am out of the mil I can focus more on my family, living life and of course my geeky addiction.

Its been a fun road to now. I started out with my first Android phone the HTC Droid Eris. I enjoyed the works of many great devs and learned so much while using there Rom's. workshed, Tazzpatriot, condemned soul, conap, gnarlic man the list goes on... These guys are really who got me interested in developing and everything else. With there help a did a little theming for the Eris. It was mostly just minor stuff for Cm. As time past I eventually moved on to the HTC Droid Incredible. I've been here since March. I started out again doing some theming then I moved up to my DTR's (BUNKER BUSTER DTR and yes since I'm retired U.S Army thats why it is named something militaryish). Its a fun little project and its also my way of sticking it to the man, lol. Now most of my focus goes to my Roms. I have Pure Speed which is my first and my baby. I'm so proud of that rom. I also have Hybrid Speed, Sub Sonic and my latest my first ever 3.0 rom Pure Shooter.

All in all this Inc community has taught me so much and showed me a whole new world I never knew existed. We have good support, good people and great devs here. My time spent here is now just keeping my work updated and trying to help out as much as I can.

Anyways, enough with me blabbering on... Lets hear about you!
