[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
Article says that recent updates are responsible for the recording of information. So if you're like me and run a custom ROM and never received updates from HTC you should be fine?

In any case, I couldn't care less, because the world will reach 1984 at one point or another.

Good thing im not running htc Rom/ Kernel!

[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Pretty much this. Unless you're developing a code to destory the nations system, why should it matter? OH HTC knows where I was on September 1st, its not like they can do anything about it. They're a phone company not the FBI.

If it turns on my camera and watches everything I do, then yeah I'll sue!! But when I first power the phone after flashing a ROM, it ask if I want google to collect information from my phone. You know what I do? I gladly accept it cause I could care less.

[HTC Sensation] Sleef:
Any time someone is accessing your information without consent, it's a problem.

I certainly don't think every move like this us some Orwellian plot against our personal security but they all definitely help pave the way.

I would guess it also uses more data and battery...so I dont like it.
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
For all the people not caring about their privacy, please stop posting here and go play some Facebook games or do something else in which all your private information gets bundled and sold to another party.

For all the people caring about their privacy, this obviously is a great invasion of your privacy against your will/consent. It's simply bad. I wonder if HTC won't get sued for this.
[HTC Sensation] Tidbits:
HTC has already spoke of the issue. Every time something force closes or the phone has a random reboot you can opt in or opt out. You have the choice from the beginning. The information they are taking has NOTHING to do with them selling or spying on you. Nothing is phoned home unless your phone does something unexpected AND you opt in. It asks you every time unless you go into settings and to always opt in or out instead of ask every time.

[General Questions and Answers] Aplits:
My HP TouchPad wasn't booting up completely, it was just stuck on the HP logo. After turning it off multiple times and it still not working I decided it was time to use WebOS Doctor. I followed all of the instructions but when Doctor got to 12% it stopped working. I've loaded doctor countless times, it can never get past 12%. I've done this on my eMachines Laptop running Windows 7 64 bit and a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. I talked to HP once and they didn't know what to do. Please help me. What should I do?
[General Questions and Answers] begrooven:
I'm having the same problem.... hope someone know what to do soon. Bricked for now!
[General Questions and Answers] foxmulderx:
If it gets to 12% you should be able to connect to it though terminal access

You should be able to follow this guide to completely restore your device:

[LG Revolution] Cryofalcon:
Sometimes I'm in areas where I don't get the best reception (i.e. some lecture halls during school hours) and I choose to put my phone in airplane mode so as to conserve battery when the class is over. However I find after trying to come out of Airplane Mode my Revo always reboots. As far as I can remember this issue has also happened in Decrapped 1.0. The same thing happens when I turn on GPS and choose to go to Google Navigation I get rebooted. After the reboot occurs I can turn on the gps/airplane mode etc without any problems. But does this issue happen to anyone else or is it perhaps just my phone? Thanks!!
[LG Revolution] drutman:
I find that my revo does the same thing with google nav beta, it will sometimes hang and reboot too. I am running stock rom with a root. When I rotate phone the landscape view is sometimes corrupted with tiny blocks instead of the maps drawn correctly. I have to exit nav app and reload
[LG Revolution] omik47:
I've had the same thing happen with airplane mode. I don't really use it often so I figure I can live with it.
[LG Revolution] Danzdroid:
Same here. The Revo doesn't seem to like hardware mode changes at times. I get reboots when switching into Bluetooth occasionally.

[I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]
[LG Revolution] Cryofalcon:
I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one this happens to. Do you think LG will possibly release a fix? (or more people will have to raise concern about it) or possible for a dev to take a crack at it in their free time? Thanks for the feedback guys!
[LG Revolution] Cybie257:
I'm only adding this due to the fact that I was constantly having issues when tethering with the Verizon 4g Hot Spot app. When running it, I found myself needing to reboot because the data connection would get lost and sometimes go into 3g, causing all sorts of headaches with doing things on my computer, such as redesigning websites, including my own.

What I found, though, related to this post, is using the airplane mode to kill the data connection and restart it, was getting me 4g and a few minutes to a few hours of Internet again until the next glitch.

Overall, modded, ota updated, downgraded, whatever, using that method never rebooted my phone. My thoughts are that it's possible some app might be causing that. I don't use Nav anymore, except as a last resort because it is so buggy, it would cause my phone to crash over and over, and rebooting. So, as for LG or Verizon coming up with a fix for this issue, I don't know if they would see it as one because it's not something everyone is experiencing and with as much as I use(d) that method, it never once happened to me. Please don't take that wrongly, just wanted to point out that it might be a certain app and allow those having this issue to seek another solution, maybe comparing apps installed to see a common denominator.

And, because I see a lot of posts relating to tethering issues with Internet freezing or dropping out, I found, on my LINUX machine (so far), that setting the MTU to 1300 seems to have solved that issue. I know this last part isn't directly related to the original post, but is the reason I kept using the airplane mode method and thought this added information might help someone doing what I was...

-Cybie
[LG Revolution] Cryofalcon:
Sorry for the bump, but as of flashing Revolt 1.5, the issue in my original post seems to have been corrected as I was able to go from airplane mode to google nav multiple times and didn't reboot at all. so whatever the issue was seems to have been corrected. Thanks MT!!

I saw HDTV apex led 40inch 120hz 1080p for 499.00. I was going to get but I wanted to know why its soon cheap.
[Off-topic] VeryCoolAlan:
Well Apex isn't like Sony or Samsung and they don't advertise everything they sell. So they don't spend extra money and this means they don't need to bump up the costs of TV's or other products.

Think of it as Cocoa Pebbles...they come in a small box and are expensive and those no big brand cereals are the same but cost a lot less and offer more...why?

Because those companies don't spend extra money on advertisement.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] qpqpqp:
Don't know if its the same thing, whitehawx just posted a modded camera app in his valhalla custom ROM thread somewhere on page 15/16ish. It let's you auto use the power button to take pictures. It will auto focus before taking the picture, but you still need to be at least 4 or 5 inches away from the object though.

It all depends on the fact if you ever made a backup of your /efs folder or not. If you did well you are in luck, if not.. too bad..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
There are a couple of threads with users who have experienced the same issue, try searching for them as I recall someone was able to recover even without a back up. You can also try activating airplane mode and restarting the phone. Once the phone boots fully toggle airplane mode off. It's a long shot but there is no harm in trying. Good luck

No IMEI and BASEBAND UNKNOWN:

Solution (It worked for me):

1. Flash your SGSII with Odin v1.85 with the following firmware: http://hotfile.com/dl/116275514/2c567c4/I9100XEKDB.rar.html

2. Root your SGSII with: https://hotfile.com/dl/159843434/212178c/XWKDD_insecure.tar.html

3. On your phone, connect to WIFI, go to market or play store, and download the following files:

GSII_Repair

Busybox Installer

4. Install Busybox v1.17.1

5. Open GSII_Repair

6. Go to Repair GSII tab, follow the steps.

7. Your phone will reboot and you finally can see your IMEI and BASEBAND, now you are allowed to insert any SIM.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] x-ravin:
So a couple weeks after getting my tab it wouldn't power up anymore. Tried the run the battery down APX trick, ran it all the way down, still nothing. So I called Samsung. After the usual dumb questions they have to ask (plug it in, push power) they promptly emailed me a UPS shipping label to send it of to a center in Texas. The day it got there the online status said parts ordered.

About 5 days later Samsung called to say that there the parts are on indefinite back order and that they'd send me an exchange unit. That was Sunday, and I just got the unit today. It is refurbed, but also unlocked :D:D:D My old unit was a locked retail. The unit is in perfect shape, no marks, just like brand new. Just wanted to share my experience. 2.5 weeks from the day of calling isn't bad for support turnaround.

1. I keep seeing MIUI roms pop up all over. Could someone explain to me in plain English what exactly it is? From the screenshots I've seen it looks like the iphone...and there are Chinese iphone clones with (an actual) MIUI os out there right? But these roms are android OS modified to look like MIUI, which is a clone of Iphone? am I correct so far?

2. From the posts I've read, it's still buggy as far as GPS amongst other bugs? Also the UI itself has no app drawer and uses the grouping icons on the desktop like IOS? I've played around with the nephews ipod thouch, and it is annoying as hell...you can't just have a nice clean desktop with a few app shortcuts to say cam/mp3/navi and then a button to access the rest of your apps? It's all there in your face with groups of apps/games taking up your whole homescreen? (again unless you download some mod, which has to run in the background taking up resources) ?

If you have used a miui rom I'd love to get some feedback, before I try to flash one...again it seems to me it's trying to clone an iphone, in which case why not just get one?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
I wasn't sure about the MIUI ROM's at first. Slowly they started popping up on almost every device. A few friends ran it on their phones and that's what originally got me to flash it. You are correct in that there is no app drawer. Luckily for me I use folders like none other. It was a pain and still is every time I update, but I am patient and take the time. I just make a folder named "apps" and place all my apps in there! BOOM!!! EPIC app drawer action!:cool: It really has started to grow on me. I enjoy the ease of customizing all the theme options that's a big plus for me and I never really messed with that too much on other ROM's. Its so simple with MIUI you can't help your self. Its really pretty slick and I have no bugs to report. GPS werks fine for me and that is something I need to werk. Check it out, it might be for you, it might not. Only one way to find out.

Good luck!:)
