Sadly, you're right. Functionality comes first and foremost to me though, and the dInc2 is simply better and more functional. The RUU it shipped with was also bulletproof. Now it's already got GB. Gimme a debloated ROM, a custom kernel, and Rosie settings and I'm plenty happy enough.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Well Tiny got a custom overclockable kernel without the source by using Evo parts, so he is a freaking beast and that combined with Nils sense 3.0 rom, with smartass and OC to 1. 075 it is the smoothest rock solid rom I've ever run. I wouldn't mind getting the Dinc 2 as a replacement or something, but I wouldn't use my two year upgrade on it.

eBay

eBay is flooded with the front housing with the digitizer already in it for around $26 bucks and it's a really easy fix. Send it to me and I'll do it for you for free if you think it's a little too involved. Plenty of videos out there on how to do it.

One of the main things that makes me want to keep this phone and not upgrade is the trackpad. Not a common feature on the newer phones and to me this phone still works just as well as all the newer phones.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
Yep I dropped and shattered my digitalizer earlier this week, ordered parts (under $30 total) and took maybe 10 minutes to replace.

If you're going that route, get the housing. Having to scape out the glue then glue the screen on there is just a total mess. Amazon is probably your best choice for reliable parts.

The INC2 finally got root a couple weeks ago, development is still slow and lacking and the phone isn't that big of an upgrade despite what some people say.

Your choice, personally I would shoot for the INC2 to avoid hassle (and you still get custom ROM's like CM7, even though it's in a buggier phase)- but it comes down to how much you love your custom ROM and the INC.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastalero:
I have a week to decide,gotta wait till next paycheck to make any kind of move anyways...

I do think that more roms will start popping up for the inc 2 though as

having s-off on it was but a dream earlier this summer(and then it got rooted GB taboot)

I would miss the general size and weight of the Inc because that was the first thing I noticed bout it. Also it would make a great backup phone....the dinc is turning into a classic basically :)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffiphone:
Is there a way to backup my free and paid apps from the Android Market onto my Mac?

Also can this be done without rooting the Xoom?

The reason that I ask is that I recently purchased a xoom, and some of the apps that I had previously paid for on my Nexus were no longer on the Android Market. I also snagged a $99 Touchpad and was hoping to return the Xoom before my return window is up and wait for Android to be released on the Touchpad since a $99 Android tablet would be a great deal. During this time I don't want any more of the apps I paid for to be removed from the Android market.

I would love to be able to backup my apps off of the Xoom, return it, wait for Android on the Touchpad, and then reinstall the apps from my Mac.

Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrifeSoldierVII:
That's a pretty awesome deal you got there! I was hoping to snag a 16gb Touchpad for $99, but I was a day too late. Once the devs get Android ported over to this thing... man. That's pretty neat. Although I love the Xoom and would never trade it out (unless it is the Xoom 2), having a second tablet would be fun.

Now... to your question: The best way to accomplish this without obtaining root access would be to use the app called MyBackup. It has a free 30 day trial, so I would imagine that you would just use that to backup your apps. Because there would be no need to purchase the full version for what you are looking to do... well, unless you could have a use for the app in the future.

MyBackup On The Android Market

Good luck!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffiphone:
Thanks for the quick response. I'll give that app a look and see if it'll work for me. Thanks.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrifeSoldierVII:
No problem. It should be what you need. You can backup all of your apps to either your SD card, or their cloud storage servers for future use. It's a win-win.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffiphone:
Is there anything that allows you to back up paid/protected apps?

The main thing I am concerned about is my emulators since I had purchased Nesoid before on my phone and then when I bought my Xoom it was no longer available on the market.

I purchased another emulator for my xoom, I'm just afraid if it takes a bit for Android to come to the Touchpad that there may not be any emulators on the app store.

This was one of the main reasons I wanted an android tablet since it's great to be able to connect the wiimote via bluetooth and play some of my old games.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrifeSoldierVII:
I was pretty sure that it would back up all apps, paid ones included. It's the best app backup manager on the market that does not require root access. Possibly you can try Astro File Manager, as it also has a built in backup app manager. Not sure if it backs up paid and protected apps though. Worth a shot.

But, having root access may be the best and only way to grab both paid and protected apps. Titanium Backup kills all other app backup managers, hands down. It's the rooting swiss army knife for sure, and is highly recommended. I use it all the time. Works like a charm.

And I hear ya about the emulators. They were a few bucks each, as I have some of them. Plus I loves me some old school gaming on my Xoom. :)

[Droid X General] Wisegy84:
I've searched for quite a while and was unable to find this particular issue mentioned anywhere else.

When my wife tries to send an MMS from her DX it gives her the error message "Can't send message right now. Too many unsent multimedia messages." She has googled the issue and tried the couple fixes that she was able to find, but to no avail. Deleting the threads, deleting the contact and re-entering, etc. Still gets the same message, regardless of who she is trying to send to.

She is unrooted, using GoSMS for messaging.

Thanks in advance for any help/advice!
[Droid X General] meshdub:
This is obvious, but just to make sure... Does she have data on?
[Droid X General] Tone_Capone:
GoSMS WILL NOT send mms over wifi, so make sure she is on mobile data.

I would go through her convo's and see if there are any mms that she doesnt care about and delete them. Also try sending an mms with the native sms app to see if that will work to see if its a system or gosms problem.
[Droid X General] Wisegy84:
Thanks for the responses!

Mobile data is on.

She doesn't get the message popping up when using the stock messaging, but the message still doesn't send.

I'll go through and delete any MMS I can find and see if that changes anything.

Not sure if this is related, but just over the past few days she's noticed that a few pictures have appeared to become corrupted. The thumbnails appear fine, but when she views the pictures they show a small bar of the image at the top and the rest is a scramble of red/gray. When viewing with the phone plugged into a computer it is just gray with the bar of image at the top.

Still trying to figure that one out, too.

Kind of wondering if rooting her phone and flashing a ROM might help things... I know my DInc runs much smoother for it.

Thanks again!
[Droid X General] bigshotrob22:
If your not rooted I would sbf and that should fix your issue.
[Droid X General] Tone_Capone:
I think sbfing at this point would be like trying to kill a fly with a bazooka. There are other thing we can try before deleting everything and starting from scratch.

It sounds to me like there is a corruption somewhere in the folder where these pictures are stored, which could be causing both problems.

Try moving a picture into another folder on the sd then send the picture and see if you get different results. You can also try inserting another sd card and try to send a picture from there.

I hope this helps!
[Droid X General] mav3rick478:
Try Handcent, the stock messaging app sucks. I switched because of the same problems your wife is having.
[Droid X General] Tone_Capone:
The reason Handcent will "solve" the problem is the program creates its own folders to stores files and pictures in. The problem will still exist if you use the stock messenger app.
[Droid X General] Wisegy84:
Thanks for all the replies!

I wanted to get back sooner, just been busy.

Here is where I am so far:

My wife said she had gone through and deleted any unsent MMS in all threads, but that the problem persisted. This was a few weeks ago. A couple days ago I personally went through and did the same, and then I also deleted an MMS from one thread that had been successfully sent, just to see if it would do anything.

I then tried sending an MMS and it worked. And she's been successfully sending MMS over the past couple days. I'm not sure if it was necessary to delete a successfully sent message, though. My wife might have missed an unsent one somewhere, but she's generally pretty savvy when it comes to things like that, so who really knows?

In any case, the not being able to send messages problem is solved. Thanks for all the help!

However, I am still trying to figure out what happened to the few photos that became corrupted. She has over 700 photos in total on her SD card (from several years) and she only noticed the corruption problem about a week ago or so. As far as she can tell (hasn't looked at every single photo yet) it is only three photos. The thumbnails are fine and when you initially click to view them they appear fine for a split second before distorting. I'm stumped. Any ideas on this one?

And once again, all of your help/advice is greatly appreciated!
[Droid X General] Tone_Capone:
Take the photos that are corrupted and put them on a computer to see if the files are actually corrupted or if the phone is reading them weirdly.

If the comp reads the pictures ok, just try renaming or moving the pictures. Sometimes a re-save of the file will fix an issue like that. If the comp doesn't read the files, they are def corrupted.
[Droid X General] Wisegy84:
I tried viewing the pics after moving them to my comp, but still corrupted. Thankfully it was only three pics and no further ones appear to have become corrupted.

On the plus side the messaging problem appears to be completely solved.

Thanks to everyone for the help/advice!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunNgun42:
I have been downloading a bunch of stock GB roms to try a Sense free life, however out of the 4 I have downloaded so far, the performance is rather poor when flicking through webpages. The rom seems responsive as a whole, and homescreens are very snappy, but whenever I scroll around in a webpage it just has a very choppy and sluggish framerate to it. These are all webpages that I visit regularly and know are capable of silky smooth up/down scroll speeds.

Is there something I'm missing here? Why do all the sense builds outperform the non-sense builds in web browsing?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
Hi everyone, i am using milestone A853 model, i follow exactly the guide to root the phone and everything goes perfect, i can boot up and use all the custom rom as usual. BUT the problem now i having is, it happened randomly sometimes i reboot my phone it just got into this bootloader err 1A,23,35,23,00 and i have to flash the GOT 2.2.1.sbf again and do a nandroid restore, i have to flash my phone around 4 times a week.

FYI, i tried the 3 button combination to get into open recovery but still it leads me to the bootloader err page.. is there anyway i can get rid of this?? i need to constantly be with a pc to get my phone working :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] skadude66:
According to this thread, it might be an issue with a bad SD card.

http://www.android-hilfe.de/motorola-milestone/12635-milestone-startet-nicht-mehr.html

Can you try with another SD card?

Is it possibly that you have the older version of the Milestone bootloader? (90.73), you can try to flash the VR from kabaldan's website( http://android.doshaska.net/rootable) instead of G.O.T., you just need to put OR on your SD card yourself.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
i am using the bootloader 90.78 and androidiani 3.3 open recovery...i try to format my sd card first see if it helps....i flashed my phone yesterday and using a fresh new iceandfire rom 3.0, i tried a couple of times rebooting and turn off my phone and it just boot up without any problem, however this morning i tried to reboot once more and i got this bootloader error again...frustrating =/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
AOR dont updated recently, try FuFu openrecovery. it is based on AOR but have many new features and fix, like mmc fix, ext4 module, etc...

if your problem is beacuse the sdcard then you have the mmc error, what is fixed be kabaldan, and he provided a module for the fix, or you have a broken sdcard.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
Changing the a different OR will help? i already apply the dsifix.ko 2.6 by kabaldan in my /system/lib/modules directory, just only did a nandroid restore to my phone now, will monitor how long it will last till the next bootloader err...sigh, btw is it ok if i keep trying to reboot like 5 times in an hour time?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] skadude66:
5 times seems a bit excessive to me. If all you are trying to do is see if you will boot into the bootloader when you really wanted the recovery, 2 times every hour or so should suffice.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
wait a sec, you can enter the recovery console? try to not use the autoboot to or script. if the phone booted to the bootloader mode you can see a triangle, then push the camera and the volume up button to entering the basic recovery mode.

at this point the sdcard not used. then you can try to the update menu, now the phone trying to load the OR update.zip from the sdcard. if you have problem only with the last step, then your sdcard maybe broken, if you have the error at the first step, it is possible that your phone nand memory is failing. in that case you need to call the motorola customer service for the repair.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
Recovery console? you mean the console mode after enter the androidiani menu?i can go straight into AOR with the camera + power button after turning it off.

whenever i got the bootloader error, i cant do anything though, the camera button with volume up is not working.All i can do is flash the .sbf file again.

But for now my phone is still working since the last nandroid restore i did this morning, reboot a few times normally and also reboot to recovery both are working as usual.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
it is sadly, but it is possible that your phone nand memory unstable or have some crc error. do you often reflash before?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
i only started flashing few weeks ago but the bootloader error occur too frequently that i have to flash at least once every 2 days...for now i see that it lasted longer than usual,if it is really nand memory unstable means that there is nothing i can do to fix it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
you cant fix that, only the motorola service, but i suggest to try it some benchmark software like antutu benchmark. with that you can test the memory and see what happened.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
well i guess the only solution will be not turning off my phone/reboot for as long as i could, don't wan to take risk later it gets into bootloader error again :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] imTigger:
My phone always stuck at bootloader when it's hot while booting up.

Wait few minutes or use a fan to cool it down will solve it.

When this happen, recovery mode won't start

and flashing new ROM won't help or even make problem worse because of extra heat produced.

Avoid rebooting after gaming/heavy use is my workaround.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
when u stuck in the bootloader it shows the error code like mine? or just the usual bootloader screen? i tried leaving the phone for few hours without doing anything but it still stuck at the bootloader screen with error code =/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mohitrocks:
I doubt this will help, but can you try flashing an official 2.2 sbf and try it for a few days? or maybe get an official 2.2 sbf, then root it, then install a rom.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] [d]amour:
hey there just to informed you guys here that my phone currently had no bootloader error so far for a week, i am using Froyo Mod 2.9.3 and everything just work well. Wonder what happen actually to my phone previously when i flash other rom.

Just wanna ask will the following step i did causes a bootloader error?

-Flash 2.2.1 got sbf files.

-Reboot to recovery (using the latest minimod), Click on root phone (i not sure will this cause the problem as this is suppose to be for stock rom?? plz correct me if am wrong)

-Wipe Dalvik,cache and data

-Apply update of custom rom and gapps.

-Reboot

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Alien2275:
I'm not exactly sure if I got the same problem as everyone else with a dead sd card from windows phone 7. I was trying to use XBmod-Yuki's back to the future rom, and after the first update my phone froze. So, I wasn't able to access my sd card on anything; including windows, linux, the works. I wanted to play with the rom, so I thought I would try and install it without any sd card and just live with 50MB of storage. I ended up getting to the point of installing 7720 and zune said that there wasn't enough storage on my sd card. I decided to pop in my "dead" sd card anyway while my phone was running, and then go into the settings and reset the phone to factory defaults. I was hoping to see if MAYBE the card would magically start working again. The phone started back up and like magic with windows reporting 7.20GB again as if my sd card had never kicked the dust, but I had to start the whole update process again because zune kept giving me problems with restarting my phone to begin the install. Since doing that I haven't had any problems with my sd card. Again I'm not sure if I was getting all the proper symptoms of being locked out of my sd card and having the need for the nokia trick, but I thought I would share and see if this helps anyone else.

Horrible. Why would it run on Windows?
[General Topics] Award Tour:
Why? Microsoft Office and Adobe Creative Suite, among other productivity and development software for work and students. Otherwise you're stuck with a novelty product that wont replace your current machine or create a thinner portable alternative. Right now Windows 7 isn't that answer but...

My prediction for back to school season 2012:

- Next generation Intel Atom SoC with fanless designs and equal to or better than Sandy Bridge grade integrated GPUs (aka why bother with ARM?).

- 4 GB of RAM

- 40 to 80 GB SSD

-720p touch displays

- Windows 8

- Netbook prices: $300-$500

- Transformer or Dell Duo like form factors.

- Good bye non-iPad mobile-like tablets.

Because Windows is laggy, buggy, crashing all the time, unoptimized, what else?

Also, you get equivalent or better software in any Linux distro.

And who the hell would run Adobe CS on a tablet without a decent GPU?
[General Topics] Award Tour:
Spoken like a true hater, man. Windows 7 isn't anything like that.

Name the better alternatives on Linux. There are decent alternatives but not better than MS Office or Adobe CS. If FOSS appeals to you, good for you, live by your ideals but ideals wont make the software as good for people who are willing to put down the cash for the better product.

Won't run on anything but a "decent" GPU? Now I know you're a hater. I'm a creative director with way too many toys so I know what works and what doesn't. I've run CS5 on Pinetrail netbooks with no problem and it doesn't skip a beat if I run it on the IGP in Sandy Bridge systems. Next generation Atoms will do just fine as portable alternatives and will replace low to mid end laptops completely for those who opt for the tablet form factor.
