[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
thinking about picking up a couple. they can be had on Amazon for $18. my dash has a textured finish, so i'm interested in seeing if it will stick myself. even if it doesn't, i'll settle for the windshield. i'm just sick of spending $30 for a proprietary piece of plastic.
[Motorola Droid 3] rushless:
Seems that due to the shape of the keyboard bezel, it will be very hard for the dpad to have a decent grip. Hope they can get it to work.
[Motorola Droid 3] willbur73:
Well the main issue with this mount is that you cannot open the keyboard to type. I use the keyboard open when the phone is mounted with my dock.
[Motorola Droid 3] uncle650:
Wilbur

Does the mount stick to the dashboard. I have the D 3 car mount and would use the base with it to mount into the car. Just concerned that the mount will not stick to the dashboard.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
From what I've seen, the d3 dock doesn't let you use the keyboard either
[Motorola Droid 3] willbur73:
I actually use a d2 right now, with,my old d1 dock that I modified. I don't ue the touch screen for typing really, just the hardware ones. I'm upgrading to the d3 this month so that's why I'm browsing these forums.

And I use the mount to my windshield not the dash.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
i've had the D1 and D2 and both docks. The D3 dock doesn't let you type on the keyboard.
[Motorola Droid 3] uncle650:
Has anybody purchased this yet and tried on their car dashboard? The reviews seem good, but seem to be split between it works/not works on car dashboards.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] mattdavis523:
I got one and it didn't stick well to the leather portion, no surprise, but it did well on the plastic part. I like it.
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
been meaning to update this thread. the sticky sticks to my car's dash just fine, it's the dock itself that sucks. the arm bends and flexes and the grip of the clip isn't all the strong. plus, you need to use two hands to get your phone in there, so if you suddenly decide to whip out navigation, or stream music, and you want it in the dock, you'll need to be stopped just to get it in there.

the flex in the arm is a joke. i'm glad i didn't pay full price for one. plus, since moto switched to USB designation for the dock apps, it doesn't serve its purpose well.
[Motorola Droid 3] uncle650:
Was thinking about using the base to still to the dashboard, but use the D 3 car mount to put the phone in. Looks like the ball mount would fit. Just have trouble sticking things to the dashboard, is why I ask.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid 3] BrettKoster:
Wow this is impressively simple (attach a hair clip to a dock, impressive) and looks to be better than the generic dock I bought from Verizon. I intend to buy this, probably from amazon.

Anyone else make the jump and have thoughts on the matter?
[Motorola Droid 3] 640k:
see post #14
[Motorola Droid 3] blmetzger:
I use the oem dock on the droid 3 and the droid x. I like the OEM car docks and think they work great. I can easily mount both of these phones with one hand and the dashboard works well on the liberty rom. The stock dashboard is also pretty good in my opinion.
[Motorola Droid 3] savedR:
See, I'm glad you say that, because I am planning on getting the official dock later this year. The packaging of it is kinda weird; on Motorola's site, it's the dock and line in cable PLUS the carcharger for $60, but on Amazon it's the dock and line in for $40 and the charger seperate for like $12. I think they do have another package at Amazon with everything but it's like $70.
[Motorola Droid 3] 白い熊:
Any recommendations on a dock where you can use the hardware keyboard?
[Motorola Droid 3] phrir1:
+1 i used my d2g keyboard a few time while it was in the mount.
[Motorola Droid 3] Downtown Dan:
Pretty sweet dock. Wish I had seen this sooner.

I just got the Motorola dock for my D3. Definitely happy with it either way. It's nice having the phone mounted conveniently when using Navigation.
[Motorola Droid 3] scottyd035ntknow:
I know this is an old thread but after reading... who in the blue hell is trying to use the hardware keyboard with a car dock? I mean hell texting while driving is bad enough but trying to type on the physical keyboard while driving while in the car dock on your dash might very well win you a Darwin Award...

I've had the OEM docks and aftwrmarket docks and hands down the OEM Motorola docks are easily the best out there. One hand mount, secure, looks very slick and not like some cheap dollar store phone clamp and they auto activate the car home app. Not to mention that the OEM mounts plug in themselves vs having to plug the phone in every time you mount it... there is something to be said about a clean hidden wire car mount vs some garbage aftwrmarket mount with the charger and auxiliary cable hanging all over.
[Motorola Droid 3] aoxoa:
I've checked out these Clingo car mounts at a local office supply shop.

They DO seem hella sticky.

I might give one a go.

I can't post links yet.... but it's clingo DOT com.

Universal car dash mount.
[Motorola Droid 3] scottyd035ntknow:
As I said before, universal car mounts for any newer Motorola phone is a waste. The newer mounts all have removable inserts to work with cases minus the ridiculous ones like otterbox. My D3 is in a full Qmadix case and it fits in both OEM docks like a glove.
[Motorola Droid 3] ailtonbcruz:
I purchased and recommend, very useful. I liked it.
[Motorola Droid 3] ratman6161:
I am using the Motorola car dock because my wife got it free with her Droid 3. I absolutely hate suction cups. They do not work over the long haul. Used them with phones, Garmin GPS, etc and every single one of them fails eventually and it does not matter if you stick it to the windshield or the dashboard, particularly in cold weather. In my current car, the dashboard is textured so there is no way a suction cup will stick. Tried the little round stick on plate and that's really no better than the windshield - i.e. its always falling off.

But...I have found a solution. It turns out that the ball mount on the Motorola dock is compatible with mounts designed for Garmin GPS's. That opens up a whole other world of options for mounting it.

I am using this one: http://www.amazon.com/GBFM-Portable...ANJS/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1331822281&sr=8-4

Problem solved.
[Motorola Droid 3] scottyd035ntknow:
I had one on my dash forever with my old DX and it never fell off the windshield. I pushed as hard as I could and then used the lever and that was that. I do agree about the dash though not to mention I'm not sure why people even want to put them on the dash when putting them in the lower left corner of the windshield right around where the inspection tags are is a perfect location within reach and right in front of you.
[Motorola Droid 3] ratman6161:
Perhaps...if you never take it off once the suction cup is stuck on. But for many of us that's not an option. If you work in an area where a suction cup on your windshield is like putting a sign on the car saying "please smash my window and rob me" then you don't leave such things visible. Also, every try to stick a suction cup on glass when the temperature is below zero? Finally, the curvature of the glass also has an effect on how well it works. So while suction cups may work for you, for a lot of us they just plain suck.
[Motorola Droid 3] tumtum1088:
I totally agree, I'm in NYC, its just asking for someone to break in, unfortunately though I have this exact mount and after 4 months of on and off every day, it really doesn't stick that well any more :(. But it was great while it worked.
[Motorola Droid 3] DKDroid3:
The Garmin sandbag works great. It is illegal in my state to have anything suction cupped to the windshield. The dash circle doesn't stick good enough to use. seems like with the phone on the dock it is so front heavy that it pulls it off.
[Motorola Droid 3] djbolden:
Just FYI if there's anyone out there who still cares...

I just got an OtterBox for my Droid3 and it will (barely) fit in both the car and home dock. I cut the flap over the USB and HDMI ports off and I have to push it in the docks very firmly and carefully, but it does work.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GunFishin:
The only issue I have is that the backplate on the left side flexes very slightly and makes a small creaking sound.

Does anyone else have this problem and should I exchange my TF while I still have a chance?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SilverZero:
Does it bother you enough to wait for an RMA and maybe get a better one, that may or may not develop the same or other issues down the road? If it's worth the hassle and you don't think you can deal with it, then return it now.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Paran0idAndr0id:
Got that issue on my dock. Will send it back
[Eee Pad Transformer General] MarkLI88:
Mine does that as well, a little creaking sound when I flex the back left side but other then that mine is perfect. I would not risk getting a worse one if that is the only thing wrong with it. I now have mine in a Slim case from Blurex that I ordered off Amazon, that helped stop the creak. I guess if it really bothers you then send it back, mine the creak was not that bad and did not really bother me...good luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] strikethreeout:
I'm pretty sure that build defect is on most if not all TF's.

I put a skin guard on the back and have forgotten all about the creak. I guess it makes the back thicker and solves the problem. Don't know, but it works.

A cover works too.

But yeah, don't RMA. Wait is long and there is a possibility that either: 1) nothing changes 2) the TF comes back even worse (by the repair center or shipping)

Edit: Also, don't get the official Asus case. It's expensive and it's crap. Read the reviews on Amazon and get a cheaper one.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] vaibhav011286:
Hello,

After successful deodexed, zipalign & optimizatio of all apk files under /system/app & /system/framework, my internal phone memory which was left just before doing this was around 66mb but just after successfull restart after applying optimization my phone memory left on around 35mb.... :confused:

Can somebody elaborate on this? Why the usage space increased??
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
I have done everything as told but ADB will not run. I dont know what to do. I jsut want to get Android Market on my Nook with Adroid 3.0 so I can them download stuff. Is ther an easier way than this ADB stuff?!?
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
I have gotten this far but now I'm lost... I keep trying to install nookcolor-easyADB but it keeps saying "cant find install.vbs" and fails...
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Android 3.0? Are you talking about Honeycomb? In most cases you don't need ADB to get the Android Market on to your Nook. You should be able to flash it using the Clockwork Recovery.

What version of Android do you have installed? Where to you have it installed to? Exactly what is your end goal?
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
I have android 3.0 Honeycomb installed on a 32GB Micro-SD. It works fine. My end goal is to just use the nook as much like I do my phone as possible. So i want to download Gmail, Kindle, Facebook, Google+, Music, etc.

I do have a 2 gig clockwork recovery SD already setup and did a backup of the Nook before I started. How can I use it to get Google Market and Amazon Market installed?
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Using Honeycomb on the Nook isn't recommended, it is far from completely functional and there is no on going development on it, the devs are waiting for Ice Cream Sandwich.

I recommend using CM7, the nightlies seem to be the most functional and stable and are actively developed and supported.

That said if you are intent on using it anyway I would recommend going with the latest effort by Divine_madcat, from what I understand it is the most up to date and functional of the ports, here, it installs on the internal memory and comes preinstalled with the Market.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
I would be happy to just use Android 2.2 like what is on my Thunderbolt. Can you point me to a guid that would walk me through how to get it installed as easily as possible?

The reason I went with Honycome was that it was so easy, I just wrote the image to the 32GB SD and turned it on.

I would like to install to the internal mem but the first one i tried using my 2GB Clockwork SD didnt work...
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Oh and my Nook is V1.2.
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Burn the CWR image here to your SD card, once you've done that you can grab the latest nightly here , throw it on your SD card and flash it by booting up the Nook with the SD card inserted and choosing "install zip from sd card". Remove the SD card from your Nook and boot it up, then open the Rom Manager app and go to "download rom" then download and flash gapps. once you've done that you'll be all up and running, you can then use a program like mini tool to repartition your SD card.
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
Clean format ur SD card.

Download this.

Unpack it.

Write it to the SD card.

Download the latest stable release or nightly build of CM.

Put the downloaded ROM to the "boot" partition of ur SD card.

Boot the NC.

Let it install and reboot.

Connect wifi on successful boot and turn off the NC.

Download Gapps here.

Reboot it to the recovery by pressing "N + power" keys at the startup :)

It will install Gapps and reboot :) thats it.

Hit thanks if it helps :)
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Ok that worked great!! Thank you!

But I dont understand what "Flash Gapps" is and I dont see it... I have a 2nd SD card so I dont care about repartitioning the one I used to get the image on...
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
It wont let me mount the SD card that has the GAPS on it. And it keeps saying "only premium user can mount..." etc.

So I reboot and install GAPS the same way I did the image??

I'm confused again
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
Copy ur Gapps to the "boot" partition of ur SD card having CM7 and power it on holding the "power and N" keys together till it says "loading recovery" it will install the same way like it installed CM7 ROM.

Thats all. :)

If this doesn't work let the CM7 power on and hold power off and check the option "Reboot into recovery".

Hit thanks and raise my thanks meter. ;)
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
So I got GAPPS installed but now it’s just riddled with errors. Every time it tries to download something from the market it says it was "stopped unexpectedly"... I cant even get Gmail to install.
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
wht did u download? the latest nightly build or the stable release?
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
I turned on Dbug.... now I think its working!!

Sweet!! Thanks guys!
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Reboot in to recovery and run fix permissions and then try again.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Latest nightly
[Nook Color General] siddhantfriends:
Good :) glad you've made it.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Spoke too soon. Its all F'ed up. Thing is error city and I cant download anything from the market.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
"This process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. "Force Close""

That error comes up as soon as it gets passed the cyanogen screen and then comes up when you try to do almost anything...
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
If fixing permissions doesn't fix it, then reflash CM7 and wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
How do I "wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery"?
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
With your Nook powered on, press and hold the power button, when the power menu comes up choose reboot, then choose recovery. Alternately with the Nook off press the power button and then hold the "n" button, when it loads up the menu choose to boot in to recovery.

While in recovery, Wipe cache is one of the options on the first page, wipe dalvik cache is under the Advanced menu.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Oh great...

So I wiped Dalvik Cache and now the recovery menu is frozen. I cant get it to power off, back up, nothing!!

WTF??

And there is no battery to pull so its just stuck here!!
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
OK I held the power in for 10 secs and got it down, trying a different Rom, that last one sucked!!
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
Press and hold the power button for 10+ seconds and it'll shutoff, boot back up and open the Rom Manager and flash the latest Clockwork Recovery for the Nook; It froze because you are using an old version of the Clockwork Recovery...

Then try again.
[Nook Color General] joenathane:
The Rom didn't suck, there must have been an error in flashing. I recommend using the Nightlies, you won't find any better experience on the Nook.
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Ok guys I'm totaly screwed here!! I chose the wipe device, option, etc. reinstalled the mod and I boot back up and its the same damn thing, even the icons where I left them so it didnt actually do anything. And I'm still getting those errors everywhere!!

How do I wipe this damn thing and start over? This sucks, I have been fing with it for like 5 hours no and getting no where!!!
[Nook Color General] Touch-ee:
Found the fix, by searching a different forum. - go to Settings --> Applications --> Download Manager --> Clear Data

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brim4brim:
Try using GoDialerEx and see if the problem persists. Could just be an oddity with the stock dialler.

You wipe the phone before putting the rom on your phone? I didn't at first but did just last night and it fixed most of my issues TBH.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zj89:
yeah i always do factory wipes before rebooting new roms.. i didn't have this problem with froyobread so i'm guessing its a cm7 problem.. =(
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brim4brim:
Maybe I get lag sometimes but it is not to that level and I use GingerDX V011. Usually a second or so. Was way worse before I did a full wipe. Sound distortion and sometimes couldn't even answer calls as phone froze.

I didn't realise the difference a full wipe would make, how naive of me :p

Hi all,

I've search the forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1034956,http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=948769) but can't find a safe way to do it.

My phone is not branded , rooted, S-ON and I was running RCMiX 2 A2SD.

This afternoon I turned of my phone to get the SD card for a backup of my photos.

After removing my SD I have pluged the battery and the phone have started to boot from itself but my SD was not present. So I unplugged the battery.

After putting back the SD I tryed to start the phone and I was stuck on HTC screen.

Then I try to go HBOOT and it has searched "PB99XXX" files 4 times during 30 or more minutes.

Then I went into recovery but get the phone with red triangle. I had clockworkmod before.

how can I do?

thanks for your help.

Edit: If this might help I got Stock HBOOT 0.80

[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Bump
[Epic 4G General] nubecoder:
For your reading enjoyment.

There are actually a few things Samsung have done that contrast these docs, the biggest of which is that Samsung's conservative governor is more like a transitional governor, in that it simply uses the "transition_states" array to do it's scaling (rather than the calculation conservative uses to determine the next frequency).
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
So Nubecoder, is using "on demand" on our phones bad or not? I haven't had any problems running 1400/100 on demand with no,undervolting for months without issue but I still wanted to know. Thanks.
