[Verizon Droid Charge] TSBroich:
I am an owner of a Droid Charge, and an Xperia Play on Verizon.

Out of the box, the Droid Charge is not a very nice Android experience. It has terrible battery life, the phone heats up real quickly, and the Touchwiz launcher is extremely laggy for me.

But with rooting, flashing, and some tweaking, you can fix all of those problems.

My Droid Charge is now rooted, on the PB&J kernel, and replaced Touchwiz with Launcher Pro. Now this phone is simply fantastic.

-Battery life is very good now.

-The phone only heats up when tethering or doing heavy downloading.

-Launcher Pro is one of the best launchers out there. I froze Touchwiz using Titanium backup, and don't plan on ever using it again.

As many of the others on these forums have pointed out, the screen is amazing. MUCH better than the Xperia Play screen.

Now onto the Xperia Play. The gaming experience on this is so fantastic. Playing N64, SNES and GBA games on this is truly wonderful. I even sold my OpenPandora because of this phone.

However, be warned of one thing: The Verizon version (R800x) is stripped of the whole Sony Experience, and replaced with Verizon's crappy VCast.

The R800i version is so much better, and now I wish I had bought that. Although, being on Verizon, the R800i model is useless as a phone on that carrier. But as a WiFi device, get that one!

The screen on the Xperia Play has a permanently enabled auto-brightness "feature" that will make you want to rip your hair out in frustration. But once the phone is rooted, you can fix that. I did, and now the screen is very nice and BRIGHT. :)

I do not own a Droid X2, so I cannot give any knowledgeable information on that phone.

Overall, the Droid Charge and Xperia Play are great phones once they are rooted and their "features" and faults are fixed.

That's my input, but if I were to pick one of those two, I'd pick the Xperia Play just because I'm a huge gamer. :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] Jack.Rounsborg:
I love my Charge. I'm not even upset that I got it literally 2 days before the Bionic came out. I'm running Gummycharged GBE 2.0RC1.5 and it is FAST as hell now. Consistent 1900+ quad scores. Yeah I kinda wish it had a dual core processor..but I have a laptop. I don't need a super phone and a good laptop. Then again almost anything is better coming from a Blackberry Curve...
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
Dual core processors seem unnecessary if the only supported feature is processor affinity. I couldn't care less that my Charge lacks a dual core cpu.
[Verizon Droid Charge] crupp:
I bought a DC. Returned it for a Bionic and returned the Bionic to get my DC back. Why?

1. Camera, front and rear on Bionic terrible.

2. Did not see a noticeable speed difference. I am not a gamer.

3. Could not get the Bionic to my exchange server. Tried for hours.

4. Screen; 'nuff said

5. Radio on DC seemed better. Bionic would not maintain a signal on in office Das.

6. Hokey stranded apps, ie; music player, gallery.

Too bad because overall the phone is pretty nice.

[G2 and Desire Z General] BlueLghtning:
I have a stock Tmobile HTC G2 on Android 2.3.4. When I attempt to make a call while connected to a wifi network, I receive this message "No Internet Calling Account". This only happens when my phone is on wifi and it doesn't matter if I have wifi calling enabled or not, I still get this message. I have to disable wifi to actually make a call on this phone now. :(

For reference, I have two HTC G2's. This particular one doesn't have a data plan, so it stays on wifi. Both phones are stock and running 2.3.4 Android.

I remember the first time I tried to make a call after the upgrade to 2.3.4, it popped up with what program to use for the call. I hit what I thought was the green normal phone one, but then I get a warning message that says "No Internet Calling Account" There are no Internet calling accounts on this phone. Add one now? My choice is Add or cancel. If I choose to add it brings me to a screen to add SIP accounts.

I guess I need to figure out a way to keep this SIP (Internet Calling) from being the "default" setting when dialing out while on Wifi? For reference, my other G2 dials out just fine when wifi is connected and uses Tmobile's network like it should, or I can use the WifI calling. It behaves as it should. On this other phone, neither of those options work on this phone. I have to be off wife to actually dial out. I can receive calls just fine though, even with wifi connected.
[G2 and Desire Z General] BlueLghtning:
No help on this one? Someone has to know what is going on?
[G2 and Desire Z General] beyondx4:
Yes...it is pretty simple. I'm at work right now so I can't give you the exact details, but go into Menu > Settings > Phone (I believe it's in the phone tab), scroll to the bottom and there is a segment on Internet Calling. Just uncheck Internet Calling as default for all calls; select it to be used just for Internet Calls. That should solve the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z General] killj0y:
So you have a call plan but not data plan correct?
[G2 and Desire Z General] BlueLghtning:
I had forgot to say I checked yes and yes it was set to ask, but I changed it to only for Internet calls, but still no go. :( The only other option in there is the "For All Calls".

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

Correct, I have a normal Calling plan and texting, just no data on this phone. My work provides me with this number, but I'm not good enough to get data. :p

Anyway, I've been using this phone like that since Dec, and its never been an issue until the upgrade to Gingerbread.
[G2 and Desire Z General] *JC*:
Have you installed an app called voice changer? If so uninstall it and see if that works, it was causing that same issue on my sons phone. You can also try going to settings - apps - manage apps, choose the app named dialer and click clear defaults.
[G2 and Desire Z General] BlueLghtning:
Now we might be getting somewhere. I do have voice changer downloaded. Don't think I've ever used it. Il drop it off and see what happens. Thanks a bunch
[G2 and Desire Z General] BlueLghtning:
JC, you nailed it. First I went through and reset the default on the dialer which was one of the things I was trying to do, I just couldn't figure out how to do it.

So the next time I attempted to make a call (while connected to wifi) it came up with 2 options to dial out. One was the voice dailer app, and the other was Dialer, but it had (SIP) behind it. That Dialer was the one I hit the first time around and set it to default thinking there is no way I want the default to be the voice changer, but for some reason it only gives you that SIP option. I'm guessing the voice changer is hogging the standard dial out option.

Since it still appeared that I couldn't call out with just the normal dialer, I went ahead and uninstalled that Voice Changer app and that was it. Its back to the way I'm expecting it!

I'm glad you ran into that with your son's phone as you figured out exactly what the issue was. I don't think I have that app on my other phone and that explains why it wasn't experiencing the same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Svendor:
Same issue, but with HTC Desire 600. I did a factory reset, then restored from Google backup. Now I get that message on every phone number.

I can't find those settings or anything, it's Sense 5 and everything is different here. I have no SIP apps or anything installed on phone. please help

[HTC EVO 3D] Max_Pain:
found the original thread for the themer. it's on the nexus board here. apparently it's not optimized for qHD screens like ours yet. are you using it on landscape or portrait mode? landscape looks fine, portrait is where it's not centered and not using the full screen space.
[HTC EVO 3D] Max_Pain:
anyone else have any suggestions?

I had seen a themed keyboard that had like a blue galaxy on the background/keys but can't find it anymore. at this point i'll take anything over the stock keyboard. I really wish gimpsta would work with our phones.:(

[XPERIA X8 General] ramy670:
I've used to get to the web using my laptop as an Ad Hoc access point since my partner doesn't allow me to have a dedicated access point, but, since the day I updated to froyobread V18 coming from V17 it stopped connecting to my laptop using Ad Hoc (which is the only way to share an internet connection wirelessly) and instead it stucks at "obtaining IP address"..!

I've tried to go back to V17 and that didn't fix anything, and now I'm running GingerDX V13 and the problem still exist..I've also tried to format my SD card which also didn't help, so I'm now almost out of "web coverage" since there is no real 3G support in my country..

Also tried to do a full wipe and to "forget" all remembered networks.. and it didn't help.

Any ideas regarding the problem would be greatly appreciated..
[XPERIA X8 General] qjw451:
May firewall of your PC cos this problem, close it and try again.

Thanks a lot qjw451.. however my firewall is always turned off and i used to connenct using open network all the time..I geuss that something went wrong with my phone but I don't know what it is..

@l1nkiboy

So you do have the same problem?..:D

Actually I've tried it, didn't work..:(
[XPERIA X8 General] ramy670:
Any other ideas?

As you can see it is really a big problem not bieng able to connect your Android phone to the internet.
[XPERIA X8 General] wc_how:
try connectify.

:-)
[XPERIA X8 General] ramy670:
wc_how

Thanks a LOT!

I wonder how I forgot about connetify, I used to use it before upgrading to Froyobread (since the stock ROM doesn't support Ad Hok), then I moved to Ad Hok connection since connectify is buggy a little bit. However it is WAY better than nothing.

Thanks again wc_how.
[XPERIA X8 General] wc_how:
I never thought to tell you anything because i have no idea with the ad hoc.

But when i saw you asking for any other ideas, suddenly connectify came to me.

You are lucky lol.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barqers:
Had anyone used the app course smart? Is it worth it to buy the etexts rather than a hard copy? Or does it not work well on tablets?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buymytoasters:
Course Smart on GTab

barqers,

I have tried Course Smart on my GTab running Froyo, Gingerbread (VeganTab Ginger), and Honeycomb (Illuminate). Why did I install the app three diferent times? I wanted so desperately to use my tablet for a textbook. Unfortunately the support just isn't there yet. Here's what I learned:

Course Smart is a phone app, the tablet support is non-existant

Navigation is awkward and the app is poorly designed with no updates

Course Smart stores books as image files on your device

You can try the app out (free) with a selection of sample textbooks to see for yourself

Kindle and Nook apps do not have support for education yet

PDF books will work but may be too slow and are hard to find

Most publishers offer a online version of their book, I haven't tested this in Android browsers

I just can't honestly recommend Android tablets for textbook replacement, yet. I suspect that eventually someone will catch on and may a tablet optimized app for textbooks. Unfortunately the luddites in the textbook industry are going to make it as difficult as possible to replace physical textbooks. They're just making too much money and fear change to their business model.

Good luck in school.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barqers:
Wow thank you for such a detailed explanation. I've been scouring the web as well to find etextbooks from other sites than coursesmarts, but came up with nothing. Unfortunately I don't think my tablet will be able to replace textbooks either than! I'm sincerely hoping that my courses allow me to just get the access code and use the online textbooks from there, but I too am afraid of what it will look like in the Android browser. If that fails I always have a computer at least!

Thanks again! Maybe I'll just rent my books from now on lol.
