This thread title is a bit misleading. Edit?

On day 1 there were no less than 2-3 videos showing android running on the Touchpad. While a few called fake at the top of their lungs (and this android31 guy or whatever seems to be fake as hell) the other video was 100% legit.

Qualcomm Innovations apparently was using blank Touchpads as a work platform for software testing for an upcoming HTC tablet with very similar specs. Meaning they had a nearly fully functional port of android running on it. A number of these have made it out to the market somehow in this firesale, and at least one guy in TX has already posted willing to upload an image of his build.

Im not changing the title every time someone thinks its misleading. Thats why you open it and READ it. I posted a link to the video I am refering to in my OP.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] skywalker6705:
Your title makes it sound like there is just one video out there making this claim. That's the only reason I took issue with it, because it misleads people slightly. Someone just cross-posted in the thread I just made about the qualcomm port saying offhand that the other two videos I was discussing were faked. I don't think they are, and in any case they're entirely different from the video you're talking about.

AndroidGuy31 made a fake vid. More impressive is that there are now 3 videos of a functional android 2.2.1 port on youtube, one android touchpad listed on ebay, and one guy offering to image his for the community on a dev board. So either 3 people all spontaneously decided to hoax people with the same Android builds and situations, or maybe HP really did let some of the QI tablets out into the wild during this firesale, during which their shipping could barely handle demand. I really don't think the guys at the HP warehouses were paying attention what stack the box came from.

It's your thread though, I won't bring it up again. Just figured I'd ask since it'd be helpful.
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] dubie76:
Were cool bro. I am as excited about the port as you are. I guess I put too much hope into that guys vid and expected too much. Now I am still skeptical about these guys who have magically received tablets with android already on them. Seems a bit far fetched, but thats just my oppinion.

You also have a valid point about the other vids. Until they are proven fake, I guess we have to go with them. I do not want to spread false rumors or info so I went ahead and changed the title again. :cool:
[WebOS Software and Hacking General] Ricey:
Apparently the videos from that one guy may have been fake but the fact that someone had a touchpad with android on it is not fake. The dump of android 2.2.1 from a touchpad has now been posted on another dev forum. Let the waiting and anticipation continue!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SR4:
This problem just started. I'm running Apex 9.1 and have been running it for about two weeks now with no problems. This morning, I kept having my power menu pop up without me even pressing it. Now my power/hold/lock button no longer even works. I have confirmed the phone is on because when I plug it in through USB, the screen comes on and everything is fine. I just cannot lock the phone or unlock it. I'm not sure if this is a software problem or hardware.

So, what are my options here? I have insurance through AT&T and considered just going in and seeing about getting a replacement. Is this possible even though I've rooted and flashed another ROM?

Or can I flash back to stock Froyo from Gingerbread without having access to the power menu (to boot into recovery)?

Any help would be appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rquiett:
You could use a jig to get to download mode and use odin to flash stock if you are trying to do warranty. If you are doing insurance it won't matter cause you have to pay the $125 deductible
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SR4:
I bought the phone on its release date, so my year warranty is over with. I have to pay the deductible regardless of my problem with the phone? I have other various problems as well that are related to hardware (ear piece crackling and some other minor problems). So you're saying this wouldn't be covered through a free replacement on insurance?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rquiett:
I've never heard of the insurance doing free replacements they always have you pay the deductible. The warranty is what would have done a free replacement
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SR4:
Is there any way to bring up the power menu without being able to use the power button? Is there any type of application or option in a menu somewhere?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkuso:
Is possible change the lock button? i mean, lock/unlock with another other button?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
If you can get access to your phone via USB, you could always try ADB to get into download mode. Once you're there, it's a quick one-click back to stock Eclair if you do have to go with warranty service.

Anybody getting a data error 104. I keep getting this error whenever I try to download a bigger file or leave a youtube video paused to buffer. I've called sprint and they reset the data a few times but it never solves the problem.

[HTC EVO 3D] billyapd21:
Let me know if you find a solution. I can't believe we are the only ones getting this error. It's been driving me nuts.
[HTC EVO 3D] meatgel:
So, I saw this on the Sprint Community boards, but with no solution. It was also on Android Central : http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g/17509-evo-system-error-104-a.html

The solution might be: "We've seen the 104 error complaint in the Sprint store where I work more and more over the last few weeks. I believe it is related to Data Roaming. All the HTC phones we've seen had that feature unchecked. Checking that has helped, though it's a touch issue to track. What remains to be understood is why that box is unchecked in the first place, and more importantly, what has changed in the network to make this suddenly an issue?" (Post #14 on page 2)

IPhone is really trying to ban Galaxy phones now ??? in Europe ???

See link:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-14652482

What is going on Galaxy can get around this Just by not including their comple rom...........

This would create a GREAT opportunity for MIUI or CM to assist in the battle against IPhones specious arguments

Your Thought ??
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
The major selling point of the s2 is the fact that it's the only hardware accelerated android phone. Throw cm7 or miui on there and its just another mediocre android device that's completely unimpressive. Unless either miui or cm plan on writing brand new drivers and Samsung intends to offer some sort of licensing deal then there's no real plus side to it.
[General Topics] inktri:
Apple is pretty obnoxious. Their patents are ridiculously general
[General Topics] MartyLK:
Not trying, actually doing. This time it is in the Netherlands where it is illegal for Samsung to sell the Galaxy S, Galaxy S 2.
[General Topics] Gusar321:
No it's not. The injunction would take effect sometime in October, but by then Samsung will have their phones updated, so it's moot.

@z33dev33l: There is more to a phone than which chip is responsible for scrolling.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
its still just another laggy android phone without samsungs drivers.
[General Topics] Gusar321:
Yeah, no matter how many people tell you they don't see any problems, all Androids are so laggy you measure scrolling in seconds per frame instead of frames per second. Sure.

Get a new shtick please, this one is getting boring.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
nonsensical post first of all, second of all android did seem smooth til I got something smoother. Now every time I try to use an android device, gs2 included, I notice these little catches that I wouldn't have even seen before but now make the phone feel like I paid 500 dollars for feel cheap.
[General Topics] Gusar321:
Of course it's nonsensical. But it's what you're saying all the time! So the nonsense is not on my part, but on yours. You *are* constantly talking as if Android is so slow, and as if all that matters on a phone is which chip does the scrolling. But of course when you're saying it, you don't see the nonsense in it.
[General Topics] pmcqueen:
protip, as usual: don't feed the troll.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
I was talking about your "seconds per frame" comment, none of what you said there made any sort of sense. Android is slow which is one of many faults in it, I like a phone that just works, nothing I have to crack flash roms to, nothing I have to download 40 apps to before it has basic functions, and certainly nothing that lags relentlessly and force closes on me. I just wanted a device that works how a smartphone should without spending days or weeks making it do so before the phone became moderately useful.

just to make sure you guys don't forget, considering my last reminder was on page 1:

iPhones are horrendous aside from the app market, the UI is more cluttered than android though admittedly more uniform, and the hardware offers no choices. I am a long time winmo user and for a year and a half used android, I still have 14 android phones that dont get used. I'm just always on the lookout for the best. I'm a fanboy of no OS, whatever is best is what I use.
[General Topics] Gusar321:
Oh, come on, surely you know that graphics speed (particularly 3d graphics) is measured in frames per second. You can't be going on and on about GPU acceleration the way you do and not know that. You're ether more clueless than I thought or just really good at trolling.

You're capable of saying that with a straight face? Impressive. Very impressive. Oh, and LOL.

Oh please. You have a brain. Use it.
[General Topics] oka1:
Exactly,

BTW Samsung did enter into a agreement with Cyanogen group, my guess is it was preemptive strategy.

People who look at an Android phone as laggy have not really taken advantage of ALL the great work by the Devs here @ XDA, or Rootzwiki or elsewhere. My phone is screaming fast great battery life....etc.

My guess is Samsung along with HTC in particular are integrating the advancements made by US in the android community, because the fact that the op system is open all advancements can be blended in the best and fastest way. That is the beauty of the Android op system.

What Android is lacking is a singular voice......... Iphone is one phone one supplier. Android is many. So Iphone can effect great marketing assuring the customer that paying more for less is awesome and makes them feel good. But the fact is the Iphone is less for more. Android needs to get this message out in a single voice from all suppliers.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
of course I know that but your seconds per frame comment was what made no sense at all.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
so they're combining the efforts of the xda community, google, and all of the OEMs to make an OS work almost as well as wp7 and (sadly) IOS do? Of course people will still have full system access to slow it down.
[General Topics] vnvman:
z33 i perfectly understand the point you wanna make here. I know you're not a simple troll, just a quite informed and very very picky user (like i am after all). Tbh i wasn't really likely to pick another android phone in the latest months, because i was (and i actually still am) disappointed about how the aosp is managed by google. After a year of usage i came to the conclusion that android os has many, MANY flaws. I started considering other devices, like wp7 phones, the iphone and even the new bold 9900, but after a lot of reflections i came to a quite simple conclusion: sure android isn't perfect, but jumping ship to any other os would have still felt like a downgrade to me, being used to what android offers to users: it simply felt like not having a real choice. Basically i (re)discovered that messing up my phone and being able to plug it to every pc or mac as a mere mass storage is actually something i like and need. So a couple weeks ago i looked around, checked which one was the most up to date and powerful android phone and picked up my sgs2, simple as that. Now i'm running a simple aosp rom, and i can say i'm not bothered that much about not having samsung's hw accelerated ui (which is a bit of a lie actually: if you load the tw launcher with a few widgets it actually lags): i use opera mobile for browsing, which is totally fast and smooth (buttery smooth), and launcher pro plus as a launcher, which is virtually lag free on this device, regardless how badly you load it with widgets.

It's true, you can see it from what i just said, android is all about workarounds to avoid flaws and bugs, but honestly i prefer *****ing a bit more with my phone to get it running as i like rather than getting any wp7 or ios device that takes no effort to "customize", but at the end of the day is like a wife telling you what you can and can't do ;)

That's the way i see it at least...

Back on topic, Apple's measure on out-lawing other phones is ridiculous. Can't they even try to make some money by leasing patents?
[General Topics] oka1:
Well Yes, provided the application is singular and direct. The problem with most of these lawsuits are they interpret the application use too wide, often to the point of stupidity, and what is worse a judge goes for it.
[General Topics] lqaddict:
The problem with the patents, as was pointed out multiple times before, you do not need a functional product to have a patent for it or any aspect of it.
[General Topics] Gusar321:
But they don't want to lease patents. They want to control the market. Apple are total control freaks.

In other news, the preliminary injunction in Germany was upheld. Final ruling on September 9th.
[General Topics] oka1:
Patents have one form of control, application patents are a different standard, which is where the majority of the lawsuits battle. E334 is basically correct, patents are being issued without true application, thereby giving you some control over that idea, but now the patent office takes the inventors submittal with little review and then, afterwards use the submittal by the patent applier as the precedent. The submittal is often written in pretty vague terms open to interpretation. In other words, you write the story , they agree and then if anyone argues or contends the patent, you use the patent office data as the precedent that gives you the right to deny use of their idea by referencing your story as the precedent.

Since the patent office can be easily manipulated much easier now than before (thank the lawyers for this) these innovation stopper lawsuits are just part of the game.

Latest version is 1.19, but I read around that many devs are suggesting to stick to 1.18.2, and some others to 1.18.4. I'm a little bit confused... :confused:

Which one is the most stable, and ensures the broadest compatibility? Thanks in advance for your advices!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Getinaf:
From what I have found, it depends on the app. 1.19 is the least stable, that much is clear. Beyond that, I have seen little difference between 1.18.4 and 1.18.2, other than compatibility with specific apps and scripts.
[Verizon Droid Charge] galaxyuser88:
Ok here is my problem. I have GCFE 1.9.1 installed on my phone with all the lastest kenerl,recovery,ETC. I have the stock app loaded into the app folder and have it setup to get mail from mutiple accounts. Now when i try to reply to an email, all i get is a blank page and then a FC. I have tried to wipe all and still nothing working. I tried searching the app store for the stock email client and nothing. Also apparently there are a couple version of the emal client. The one that comes with GCFE1.9.1 was one that i was not even able to setup my accounts. The other was ozemail.apk, that have the setup page for you to choose what email account you want to setup <<----- this one works, but i have the problem of replying to emails.

So if anyone knows where i can get maybe a stock app that was pulled from working version of stock, or if someone maybe has a fix for this, please let me know. There are alot of email app on the market, but some of them are priced way too much. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Droid Charge] putney1477:
I have the same problem. I went to Verizon and tthey said it was a known problem with the charge a.d to download another app from the market. Pathetic that we can't use the stock stuff that came with the phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] putney1477:
I ended up using maildriod it works well and its free.
[Verizon Droid Charge] galaxyuser88:
that doesnt make sense, because the stock app does work when you are on the stock rom and not modified, I have used many times. Now that iam rooted the email no longer works properly. I too have have spoken to verizon tech and they have no knowledge of the stock email app not working.

Like i stated in tnhe galaxy tab 10.1 forum.

What really irritates me about this current filing with the touch screen and image gallery is once again someone did this before apple yet they take the idea and run with it. LowFat anyone? http://www.peeniewallie.com/2006/03/lowfat_image_vi.html look at the date on that page March 15th 2006? I think that was before the iphone, just a little.

Add LowFat with a Linux distro running a touch screen and man that looks pretty much like what they are filing suit about.

That's all fine and dandy but did fat patent it? People come up with ideas long before someone else does it but the original person didn't put a patent on it so they are sol.

I don't have a 10.1 so I don't know what the gallery looks like. Like many other reviews of the app, I'd like to see quickpic be a standard.
[Nexus S General] Jeremiah239:
Wow some people...
[Nexus S General] sirius b:
If you can show it existed well before an existing patent does that.still hold true? I thought prior art was a legit argument to be used in such cases like this. The gallery app they are referring to is the standard android gallery app. Apple says all Android devices infringe on this patent.

What's a normal amount of time for process "Android System" to keep the phone in partial-wake state?

I ask because i'm on a mission to make battery time a non-issue for myself, and this is last element of power drain that I can identify. I check spare parts almost religiously throughout the day, and I routinely find that Android System partial wake accounts for significantly more battery usage that other partial wake processes (like 10x more) and accounts for about 5% of my total power usage overall. Is there anything I can do or is this all account sync and background data?

I am already running:

SRF 1.2

TWZ 1.1.1 all undervolted frequencies, no OC

EF02 Modem

V6 Ram script on MegaRam 2 setting

KAK, and 3GTurbo scripts

Sprint Voicemail removed through SDX app remover

Email.apk removed through SDX app remover

lcdtest.apk removed through SDX app remover

SprintAndroidExtension.apk removed through SDX app remover

SNS and DRM services frozen through TB
