[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novasam:
If your into games check out the post on some of the many games that have been tested on the 10.1. I would also check out the custom roms after yiu root, just be aware of your battery, especially if you overclock. There are some instructions on how to get your battey back if it happens just search the forum.

There are a number of themes out there, I would stay away from the live wallpaper if you expect everything to just snap at the homescreen. Also check out the Amazon app market, free paid app per day and every once in a while they release a good one like folder organizer.

I would say other then that enjoy, and find out how the tab helps you when your away from the computer.

What do you mean by being aware of the battery? In what sense? The battery life? I thought overclocking didn't cut the battery life if the voltage is kept the same?

For the OP, other than that was mentioned, before even settling on a ROM, I would just search and get a ton of apps and try it out. Then I reformat and install the ones I really like. Idk, for me installing all those apps makes a huge mess and slows things down so I like to just download everything i want to try and then install from a clean start. Try various browsers, etc.

ADW Launcher is good. Various remote desktop stuff. Also enable Hulu (I dont know if you need root but there's a thread here somewhere) if you want and also get Netflix.

Hey I currently Installed Miui 1.9.2 after I installed it and change the theme in the theme manager the screen went completely black so now I don't know how to put the brightness back because I can't see anything and my phone has password pin :/

When I try to go into HBoot I can't because of the pd15diag.zip it asks me to volume up if I want to install either choice I make it install and after that it reboots so am stuck in this loop any help will be appreciated
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emmanuel U:
ok

well press volume down then click on recovery then wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache and re flash rom I had the same issue exactly :-)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
It doesn't seem like you read the big red announcement at the top of the thread. There's also no need to create a new thread for an issues that's already been addressed over and over in the ROM thread.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
Easiest way to bypass it trying to update pd15img is to remove your memory card to boot into recovery and once your into recovery, reinsert the sd and mount it. Then once you've resetup the rom... Get that file off the root of your sd card unless you actually need it :-P
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Shine a flashlight on the screen. Your backlight is off. Hold it at the right angle and you should be able to see your screen. Unlock the pin, go to settings and turn off auto brightness. Try it in a really dark room.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pixa241:
EVen flashing the light still might not show anything....itsjust a black screen after splash screen. the only thing to do is wipe and reflash. As they said earlier before you try to get into recovery remove you sd card then hold power+vol down and select recovery. once in recovery reinsert the sd card then just wipe and flash agagin. after your all booted up first thing to BEFORE anything else is from the home screen press menu go to settings then display settings and turn auto brightness off. DO NOT pull down the notification bar because that will just cause a black screen again.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wazrun:
I solved the problem by removing my SD CARD and once into recovery reinserted the SD CARD hehe.

Thanks for the replies guys

[Nook Color General] BurningKoala:
I've found a nook color import used in my contry(italy) and I was wondering if I cuold use it like a tablet with the CM7...

I like thè 7" display and the design,but I can find a acer iconia A500 or a asus Transforer spending 100 euro more...

I would use the nook for ebook,internet,movie,app...

battery life?accelerometer?

what should i do? >_<

p.s. sorry for my bad english:(
[Nook Color General] s52m3:
Your English is better than my Italian, no worries. I think if the price is right it's a great device with CM7 on it. If you don't need a more powerful device with more gadgets like camera etc. then the nook is right for you.
[Nook Color General] k8108:
Like it was said, the nook is fine if you don't want a camera on it.

I have a nook color and a dell streak 7. I prefer the nook color to the dell streak. I gave the streak to my daughter for her use.

Battery life is as great as you want it to be. I can get a couple days off my nook with pretty heavy use. If I didn't use it very much, the battery would last a lot longer, obviously.

I read books on kindle, nook and sony reader apps. Also pdf books. No problems there.

I watch netflix, hulu+ and more and the nook does just fine.

I have around 80 apps on my nook and each works great. I have no complaints about my nook, and lots of love for it!

I am currently running Miui on my nook - and have run cm7, pherimod etc. on it. It's a wonderful device! Very versatile and very stable.

The best thing about the nook is that no matter what you do to it, it is very hard to brick (ruin). Very easy to restore.

Good luck with your decision.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmehockey84:
Hey everyone. As you can see I'm a noob to this site. But I'm excited to be on here and learn more about my devices and read what everyone has to say. I've been researching tablets and I feel I've settled on the Asus TF over the Galaxy Tab. My question is...Is there anything on the horizon that would be worth waiting for instead of getting the TF that looks like it would be as good a value? I feel like I'm getting the most value for my money right now going with the TF over say the Tab/xoom/etc. I would appreciate any/all feedback on your experiences with the TF.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastermind1234321:
Personally i would suggest you wear for the TF 2. IT seems like it is going to be out soon and it will be coming with the tegra 3 and android 4.0. While i LOVE my TF, the one problem i feel is that it often lags or is just slower that i would like in general. I suspect these issues will be resolved in the TF 2.

And it seems that the TF 2 might be coming out next month so you won't have to wait long. If nothing else, the TF1 will become alot cheaper when the TF2 is out
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
If you wait for whats on the horizon then you will wait forever. I wouldn't count on the TF2 until the 1st quarter of 2012. The Kal el is not even ready yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmehockey84:
Yeah I agree that there is always going to be something new on the horizon so what you have is never going to stay at the forefront very long. I guess maybe what I want to know before i go buy mine is. From what you all have gotten out of it so far where you happy with your decision to buy the TF? Do you definitely feel like it was money well spent? I appreciate everyone's thoughts.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
I want to create an update.zip file for a certain purpose :) and since it's quite a big thing, it'd be nice if I could comment on each step so that I don't get lost. Is it possible to add comments to an update.zip?
[Xperia Play General] Bin4ry:
Yes it is.

Add such a line for every comment to your updater-script:

ui_print("Hello World!");

Regards
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Mmm, I meant comments as text that I want to appear in the script, but I don't want to be ran or displayed.

For example:

ui_print("Hello World!");
[B]# this command shows the words "Hello World!" in the screen[/B]
[Xperia Play General] DooMLoRD:
yes should work

make sure u save the file in UNIX format

BTW why u posting this in Dev section? isnt this more suitable in General section?
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Now that you mention it... I'll report it.

What do you mean, saving it in UNIX format?

[General Questions and Answers] Isun:
I plugged my Xoom to my computer and was about to back up my files and saw that I still had an old document folder titled 'se' on the the Xoom. I thought I was deleting it and got up away from the computer. When I returned it seemed like the screen was frozen and I could see that the folder that was selected was 'sd card'. I went up one folder and saw that the Xoom was now saying 28 GB free space. I checked my Recycle Bin and nothing was there. I was in doubt and unplugged the Xoom from the computer and my wallpaper and widgets are all there but if I try to launch anything it isn't working. Is there anyway to retrieve the data ? It figures that the day after I finish every level of all the Angry Birds game and Asphalt 6, this happens. Do I basically have to factory reset my Xoom? I just plugged it back in and I can now see the folders which is weird because it still says 28 GB free space and no app will launch.
[General Questions and Answers] Isun:
Update- I can no longer see the folders. I'm guessing there is no fix for this and I really just lost everything but I will give it a day and hope for a response on here. Now I remember why I should have rooted my Xoom. I could have backed up my apps and app data.
[HTC Sensation] jamiee6610:
When i open my contacts up to edit them i have @ 8-12 duplicate numbers under the contqct details.

So say i open 'Joe Bloggs' contact his number is listed 8-12 times, i have edited these manually deleting the excess numbers but then they reapear!

Any ideas on how to fix it?
[HTC Sensation] debunk:
Open the People app, go to the menu -> More -> Linked contacts. Unlink all the duplicates. Go back to the main screen and you'll be able to delete the duplicate entries.
[HTC Sensation] phonegod:
Thats not going to work, what you have to do is go in your gmail on a pc or anything other than your phone and go to contacts and delete the duplicates. The problem is your contacts are being save to gmail and simcard so everytime you sync with gmail your contact are going right back on your phone along with you sim contacts wich are the same as gmail contacts.this will stop it from happening everytime you sync or flash a rom
[HTC Sensation] debunk:
It depends completely on whether the contacts are stored as phone contacts (which is the default for contacts entered/imported on the phone) or google contacts. I've had the same issue the OP had, and it was caused by duplicate phone contacts, not google contacts. Doesn't hurt for him to check, of course, you may be right ;)
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
also the duplicates could be coming in from htcsense.com if you use that or tmobile's contact backup crap if you use that. I also had an issue with HTC Sync where it didn't like that I had contacts with notes on them & started auto duplicating my contacts.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] BilliamB:
without the B70 SBK this products gets returned! If I wanted a locked bootloader I would buy an iPAD. The creaky case is also some poor quality that also shows ASUS doesnt care about the consumer because they released it knowing it creaks, time for my money to go elsewhere. No more ASUS products just like no more Viewsonic. ASUS can deal with all the returns.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rpavich:
Waaa Waaa Waaa....not another one of these inane posts...please?

if you don't like your purchase, go return it but don't cry about how Asus doesn't care...that's just dumb.

Hmm that's ashame. I will get right on that boycott. So when is the Transformer 2 release? My money is ready :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] typci:
Asus has already had 3-4 returns from me. But I finally got a Transformer with dock without any problems.

Don't boycott their product, just buy it and return/exchange like a hundred times. Then they'll get the message.

Seriously though, don't. I'm joking. If you don't like the product go buy something else.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bob Smith42:
The same team that unlocked the earlier version has unlocked the B7O. But, ASUS asked not to release sbk in similar fashion and nvflash loader needs mod.

It might be too early to say B7O (latest) and above (B8, etc) will stay locked. At least someone now has the ability to root and is trying to get root for all. :)

I do not have links, but it is fairly easy information to locate. Good luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ToonXW:
You talk as though there are no defective units in every other brands.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
you can hardly boycott asus for trying to lock the bootloader, almost every major mfg out there tries to lock it. You'd be better off blaming google for allowing mfgs to sell unrootable devices, or for closing down all the known 3.2 root methods. i agree that without root these devices become far less useable and the mfgs need to come to terms with that, but asus is hardly alone. You'll have a hard time finding a mainstream device that doesn't at least attempt to lock down the boot loader.

[Droid 2 General] Tracker557:
Here's my problem,

I had the Droid 2 with stock ROM rooted and all was well. My phone installed the Gingerbread ROM (4.5.601) when Verizon pushed it out a few days ago. Thankfully, this did not totally jack up my phone. However, I no longer have root access.

I have tried three different 1 click root methods for the Gingerbread ROM but none of them worked. I tried un-rooting and re-rooting with one clicks and that's not working. I tried manually removing the Superuser app and rooting, no joy.

The one clicks are connecting with the phone but the phone does not seem to want to allow access to change files.

Before anyone asks, YES I have the drivers installed and the connection with the PC is good. I have attempted to run the 1 click roots in "charge only" AND "PC Mode". Debugging is on and I am set to allow non-market applications.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Tracker
[Droid 2 General] Tracker557:
Update: in trying to manually remove old superuser file with adb shell, I just can't seem to get the # prompt to execute the commands even after running Pete Souza's exploits.

suggestions?
[Droid 2 General] asavitzk:
Hope somebody comes up with an answer - same thing happened to me.
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
did you use the d3 root method? thats the only one that works 100% on gingerbread.
[Droid 2 General] asavitzk:
Yes. I used the "Pete's Motorola Root Tools.exe" program on Win7:

psouza4.com/droid3/#root

I also followed the "Droid X Notes" section at the bottom even though I have the D2 and I'm not able to get the "adb shell" ending with #.
[Droid 2 General] hurleygirlie05:
SOS!!

Thank you for such a clear, concise post! I am in the same boat with no luck. I used the one click root for D3 which says it will work for a number of Android phones, including the D2 Global, but is NOT working with my D2. I have run the application two times and both times it went through the entire process, rebooted my phone three times and said success but...no success... I am sooo bummed as the only way I get internet at home is via Wireless Tether which I can no longer use because I do not have Root access!

Desperate in Cool (the name of the town I live in), I need help!!

Thanks in advance,

Jeni
[Droid 2 General] Tracker557:
Yeah, still no joy here. I've retried everything that I mentioned in the OP and still can't get the # so I can execute an un-root and/or re-root as described on Pete's website.

I've tried it on both a Win XP and a Win 7 machine.

Anyone have any suggestions? It appears the D2 Gingerbread firmware doesn't want to allow permissions to modify certain portions that were allowed before.
[Droid 2 General] asavitzk:
Success

I didn't so much fix the problem as hit it with a bat until it shattered, then rebuilt it. :)

My fix was to SFB the phone back to Froyo with factory defaults, activate it with Verizon (at this point I have no software added or accounts set up on it so obviously no root), apply the OTA update to GB, perform the 1-click Root which worked this time, then setup my google accounts and install Titanium Backup which I had previously used, and restored all my data from it.

At this point I'm getting some force-close errors which I'm sure are related to the Titanium restore but I was able to ADB Shell in and SU so I know I have rooted it properly and at the very least I will do another clean wipe and restore individual applications one at a time so I know which aren't working right and go from there.

Good luck everyone!
[Droid 2 General] Tracker557:
I kinda figured that this would work. I'm trying to avoid a full nuke of the phone, but so far it appears that this is the only work around.

Anyone else got a plan?
[Droid 2 General] idefiler6:
Only option I was going to provide was SBF to 2.3.2 with RSDlite and re-flash the OTA, then run the Droid3 exploit.
[Droid 2 General] drumster:
I have a D2G and I had the exact same problem. I did an OTA upgrade without un-rooting (I was earlier rooted using z4root). I had a long discussion with Pete Souza, the guy who created 1-Click root. And he agreed to help me out. He did a remote to my computer and rooted my D2G. I am going to try to reproduce all the steps here.

Situation: Was rooted using z4root. Had Superuser and su binary both on my phone but root was not recognized by titanium Backup, SetCPU, etc.

Resolution:

Run Psouza's 1-cick root http://www.psouza4.com/droid3 (ensure u have motorola drivers)

First try the Root, and if that does not work only then continue with the following steps. I got an error after step 3 which said the phone cannot be rooted (or something like that). The first two steps were a success.

Now that the root is not working, run the Temp ADB Root from the same app. In my case even that failed - but Pete said that ignore the failure message.

Now, I need to delete the su and busybox which are leftovers from the earlier root.

Open a command prompt in the support_files folder where adb is located.

Get into the shell by typing: "adb shell"

type "/system/xbin/su"

This will pop-up a prompt on your phone to allow Superuser access - just click Okay.

The $ sign will change to #

Now type "busybox mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system"

now type "cd /system/bin" This is where your su and busybox are.

Type "rm su"

Type "rm busybox"

After this just exit out of everything and run the 1-click root again. It should work now.

[Droid 2 General] infinitybiff:
Awesome! Thanks!
[Droid 2 General] thaijunk:
Just wanted to say I think i love you...this worked for me after two tries on my Droid 2.

First time I was able to remove su and busybox...then when I applied the one click root again, it said there were a bunch of errors but still succeeded. After the reboot I didn't get superuser access yet so I went through deleting su and busybox again (but busybox wasn't found)

The second time i decided to restart my phone before running the script again and when attempting to verify if su was still installed by going into adb shell...it said my phone was already rooted.

Thanks!!

Good Info but one problem for me

Since I did the OTA Gingerbread, I cannot get into debugging mode. I have uninstalled the Moto drivers & reinstalled using my administrator profile on Windows 7. I have also sbf my phone. Wipe cache. Factory reset. Activate service (NOT download or sync w/ google). OTA Gingerbread. This is on a regualr D2. Anyone have any ideas on how I can get into debugging mode. Otherwise I can't do anything.
[Droid 2 General] SerenityNetworks:
Thank you!

I am so glad I found this post and the directions posted by drumster. I had previously used z4root and had not unrooted before allowing the Gingerbread upgrade. Pete's application fixed my Droid 2 on the first attempt; no other steps were needed.

Thanks again,

I just got it to work. I was on rooted froyo. Sbf'd back to stock froyo. Downloaded and installed OTA G bread. Then I had to run the D3 one click root method twice but the 2nd time it worked fine.
