[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcIdC0R3:
I have THIS 32gb MicroSDHC inserted into my tablet and THIS 128gb SDXC card inserted into my dock. I also plug THIS SSD in THIS external enclosure with a whole ton of movies and media loaded on it and it's simple as pie to just switch back and forth between my desktop, laptop and tablet anytime I want.

That's a total of 280gb in external media jacked into this thing, so you get the idea of the possibilities. Incidentally, USB 3.0 is backward compatible to USB 2.0 in case you were questioning the interface of the SSD.

We are kind assuming (and massively hoping) that it will get ICS. Honestly though, I'm thinking that if ICS was released, there would be some devs who would make a custom rom with it if Asus decides to screw us over..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budco2000:
I am very high tech, I can usually read something once and totally understand it. However after reading several articles on fast dormancy I'm not sure I understand it. I have enabled it and disabled it and I don't see a difference. I only turn on mobile data when I need it, otherwise it stays off. I have unlimited data so if enabling or disabling uses more data, then it don't matter. I also get 25 hrs of battery life, so that don't matter either. If anyone knows an easy way to explain the difference between fast dormancy being enabled vs disabled, I would love to read and learn something today
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TECK:
Fast dormancy enabled = rapidly disconnect from the network once information is sent or received.

That will penalize the actual network you are on, unless the carrier network and your phone talk to each other in a way that takes battery life as well as network congestion into consideration. For this to work, both networks and smartphones have to implement a standardized version of the fast dormancy feature.

Personally I left it at its default settings (enabled). :)

Edit: You can check it with *#9900#

But I would call my carrier to see if they have it implemented. Probably your tech support will look like you are speaking Chinese and escalate it to a more knowledgeable guy. :D

Has anyone had any success getting this device to work?

I've got the Gingerbread update. I can pair with the keyboard but it says I'm not connected. "Paired but not connected". I've tried some of the free bluetooth keyboard apps, BlueKeyboard JP and BluePiano Demo, but no success with them either. I have got this to work with my HP Touchpad and my friend that had another Android phone got it to work easily.

I got it to work!

Verbatim 97537 Wireless Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard pairing on a T-Mobile G2 running Gingerbread.

I got it to work on my T-Mobile G2 running Gingerbread Android version 2.3.4. It is not an easy connect or obvious. The trick is that I had to un-pair and pair again the keyboard each time I want to use it. It doesn't work unless it's a fresh pairing each time.

1. Go to the Market and download and install BlueKeyboard JP. I've currently got version 2.1.6.

2. Go to Settings/Language & keyboard. Enable BlueKeyboard JP. Select BlueKeyboard JP settings. There are a few nice tutorials on You-Tube for pairing a Bluetooth keyboard to your Android with this app.

3. Go to Bluetooth settings. Pair bluetooth keyboard. Turn on Bluetooth. Scan for devices. Turn on the Verbatim keyboard. Set the "Pairing" button on Verbatim keyboard. If there is a previous pairing, you need to Unpair the keyboard and redo the pairing and the keycodes on the phone and the keyboard. You should see "Verbatim Keyboard" "Paired but not connected."

4. Go to a Google search box. Long press and hold, select Input Method of BlueKeyboard JP. You might see a message saying you are "Connected..." then a pause and "Connected." Type on the keyboard and see your keystrokes appear in the search box.

If if starts saying

"Connecting...

Please don't touch keyboard.

and tries 3 times, it's not going to work. Redo the pairing again.

I almost gave up on this, but I'm happy I found a sequence of steps that works for me.

I just got one of these. I'm running cyanogen, and I followed the instructions I found on amazon, and it worked just fine, no software needed. http://www.amazon.com/review/RDBOFP...&ASIN=B004L9LT2E&nodeID=172282&tag=&linkCode=

Ok, it types fine. I can't find out how to bring up the menu from the keyboard, the hotkeys doc at http://www.verbatim.com/index/support.php?lang_id=1&cat=24&action=supportitems&pid=11477 says it's alt+esc, but that didn't work. And the "home" key doesn't seem to work either. But I'm ok with that.

Instructions:

In Android:

Turn on blue tooth.

Added step-Make android device "discoverable".

Scan for devices.

Keyboard:

Turn on the keyboard.

Push the "Pair" button with a pen.

Android:

Select the keyboard.

It will ask for a 4 number password. Enter any 4 numbers.

Press OK

Keyboard:

Enter the same 4 number password you entered in Android.

Been reported that it works. I saw it in a few posts, so I take no credit what so ever, just putting it at a top level thread for easier visibility.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmafighter121:
I'm finally tired of seeing everyones phones blow by mine speed wise so I think its time to find a faster rom than the stock. I don't need a ton of extras or themes, just the closest to stock experience with more speed. I'm leaning towards Virtuous G-Lite. Its not the overclockest I know, but it seems near-stockest. Any opinions/reviews are welcome!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
search please. search!!!!

Its been asked a million times. You will find people with every single ROM under the sun that will say it works for them. It is 100% personal preference.

Just go through the dev section, read the description and features, look through the comments in the thread, and

if you like it then flash it

.

You can always go back to your current ROM. Just make nandroid backups of every ROM you try and you can switch back and forth until you choose one you like.

The most popular AOSP (close to stock) ROMs are CM7, G-lite, and super simple ROMs like Xboarder56's stock.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmafighter121:
Well I was moreso looking for a list of the closest to stock (AOSP) which you provided, and I have looked over the features of CM7 and G-lite, which is why I was leaning towards G-lite, I was just looking for personal experience because you can read features of a million and a half different roms, (which I have) but none will list "buggy as hell" or "eats battery" in their feature list. Thank you for the response!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
But thats why I indicate that you read through some recent posts in the ROM thread. If its a good ROM people will actively be posting and following the issues and you can see them there.

And even at that point, its all how they're personally using and setting up the ROM. Their experience can be quite different from yours. If it works for you, then that's what matters. I really recommend just flashing and trying yourself.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
In the amount of time you made these posts and read the replies, you easily could have just flashed one of those ROMs and be trying it out. Seriously, flashing a ROM is fast and simple (if already rooted and S-Off), just start flashing and see what you like. Even if you got tons of advice and opinions on the ROMs, the real proof is in the pudding, and trying them yourself.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killj0y:
As far as I know there is g-lite gingerbliss i think that are stock looking, but I know most aosp roms like cyanogen will look similar since the G2 stock rom was pretty much vanilla android. I was looking for the same thing and went with the completely stock prer00ted GB and it is way faster than froyo! I was gonna overclock but i'm kinda happy with it. I'll prob give g-lite a spin when they update one more time :)

So... I have no idea if this has already been done... but would it be possible to make an app (root required of course) that would automatically do the fix for homescreen redraws? Like done HERE!!

Thoughts?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SErooted:
Ok so here i am with a brand new Atrix in hand. I worked onone a few months ago for a friend of mine and rooted with gingerbreak and used tefnars recovery. not a problem everything worked fine.

Today, i get id of my inspire after two weeks thinking the atrix is going to be a btter device. so i go ahead and root using gingerbreak, goes through with no problem. then i install cwm with rom manager, power down my phone and i get " failed to boot, starting rsd mode."

i thought it might have been with the clockwork folder that was already on my sd card that i might have screwed something up so i deleted it, and got the atrix running again and installed rom manager and flashed clockworkagain.

low and behold. same thing happened again. i am not new to flashing roms or recoveries or playing around with devices, " this is how i get paid ", but there is something seriously wrong here.

anybody having any insight to this problem and who is gracious enough to pass it to me, it will be greatly appreciated.

the new cyanogenmod is out:) everything is working (excpet fingerprint scanner and webtop) and is overclocked at 1.3. fastest rom i've used. if that isnt your thing, i like kenneths alien rom and theme. cant wait for miui tho.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SErooted:
I agree. miui is a rom that i love using on all my devices. it was setup on my xperia, inspire. i was hoping it was already available when i got the atrix a few days ago. should have researched its options a little before swapping out the inspire for it. as for cyanogen mod, im not really big on it. it really isnt my flavor. right now i have been running honey, and have checked out " the dark side."

with all the options out there, to be honest, and not to knock the devs of their work. im kinda dissapointed in the options. nothing seems to be really modified or diffeent from stock. minus the drop of blur, which i am happy about along with stock att apps.

also with these other roms that i have tried. i get fc's on almost all apps that i had to reinstall from tb or had iinstalled through side loader or adb. i cant get root explorer, torch and several others working, which really is a dissapointment to me. and i have noticed that battery drain was horrible while using honey rom and even with setcpu set to power save and cpu freq lowered to 800mhz the device became extremely hot and wouldnt charge at all. i was actually losing battery power as it was charging.

I've read about it in several places, but the camera is just slow, I don't know why it happens. the camera responds slower than a 6 year old feature phone from Nokia :eek:

It was slow on stock rom and no it's slow on CM7. I've tried an app like camera FX zoom, but still it seems to take 2 seconds from the time you press the button to the time it actually take the photo. when shooting a moving object, even a slow moving one, this is very frustrating.

any suggestions?

Have you tried cleaning the lens? A little dust messes with the focus which prolongs picture time. Also you can grab the miui camera apk and push that to your /system/app folder. I've found it to be a nice upgrade over stock.

[HTC Sensation] crypted:
I created a well-received and ever-growing solution to GPS issues for the Inspire 4G and the DesireHD. POSSIBLY, it will be available for the Sensation in the near future. One user has used it and has had great success.

I'm wanting to determine if it works well with this device.

I believe it will and should work well with almost any Android devices. But, I don't have them to test from.

If anyone is willing to test, you can download the patch and read notes and details on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1250226 thread.

It would require backing up your existing configuration and flashing a ZIP using Clockwork Recovery. The only thing the patch does is REPLACE your GPS.CONF with a properly built one.

This can be a useful patch for anyone using custom ROMs.

Respond here to tests and successes!!!

THANK YOU!
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I'll take a stab at it. I have a custom one running as well from another thread where I get 8 sats locking on eventually.

Sounds good. Got the two devices I can easily support/test doing quite well. I'd just like to share this with as many as I can, but without a device it's hard to know who would benefit.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Initial flash made my phone bork lol. It wouldn't boot up. Did a adb reboot and a system error window showed up.

Tried the 2nd time and booted up fine. Weird. I guess next time I'll just push the gps.conf. :D.

Ok I'll report back on the locks tomorrow. I'll test out the gps locks tonight before bed.
[HTC Sensation] crypted:
That is extremely weird. How did you flash it?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Via recovery using the latest CWM of course :). Using Coredroid 2.4 rom using the Faux123 kernel: 1.4 1.58nohtz.

And to update, I rebooted once more to see if I could replicate that error upon reboot. And did unfortunately.

Now I am going to try to just revert to my old nandroid and just push the gps.conf file and report back.

I go into recovery,

I always wipe cache partition and dalvik partition

mount system

flash nagps1.2.zip

reboot

And twice so far I have gotten a boot error message. Looks like a sense issue. Because it offers to force close or wait. I press force close and the screen goes blank but the screen is still "on". Just a blank black screen with the backlight on. Even pressing the power button only turns off the screen and then on again if I hit the power button the second time.

The only annoyance with this is that I have to redo my bootani now lol....

EDIT: Pushing the gps.conf file worked instead of flashing. GPS locked instantly. I was getting about 8-9 sats locking in from the bedroom window. Not too shabby!

I have attached the gps.conf file. Just unzip the rar, and adb push the gps.conf file to /system/etc, reboot and enjoy.
[HTC Sensation] soma900:
Some questions:

If use your worldwide file on my rooted sensation, can I just copy the gps.conf to rewrite the original one at the system folder? Or I should do a Recovery flash but does the file update-binary and updater-script compatible with sensation (andriod 2.3.4. sense 3.0)?
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
The boot issue is from the nohz kernel. I've had it happen quite a few times and so have others.
[HTC Sensation] crypted:
So you flashed it fine with CRW? Or, are you just copying it over? You can just copy it over. My ZIP's updater script only copies the gps.conf over; it does nothing else. It's easiest for people to have a flashable ZIP.

Do you know how to get around the problem with the NOHZ kernel? That way people could flash it?

I'd like to find a suitable way to supply this to users and start doing a Sensation release.

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------

If you have a chance, try a different kernel possibly and see if soma's point is correct?

How was your GPS working prior to flashing this?

If we can get a reliable method for installation, I think I can start supporting an aGPS option for Sensation.
