[General Questions and Answers] Jan_Jaap:
Yeah I've looked at the Galaxy S2 but there is a lot of price difference between the LG and the S2 (LG €292, Samsung €443). So the Samsung costs around 50% more and I'm not sure if that's worth it.

Yeah it seems that the HD2 is getting a lot of updates on a regular base so it will most likely be more up to date then the LG. I think a dualcore is pretty nice especially for the future 'long term' there will be a lot more apps etc. that can use the dual core.

But the HD2 is still pretty interesting with it's larger screen and a lot of software available.
[General Questions and Answers] KRZ-2pa:
Get the LG.... I myself going wait for the Samsung Galaxy Note
[General Questions and Answers] Jan_Jaap:
Any more opinions? I'm not really sure to go for a dual core 4.0" mobile or for a 4.3" single-core mobile that can run on android/windows mobile/windows phone/etc.

I prefer android.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteMy:
Is it possible to:

1) change the icon grid on the home screen to 5 x 5? I could use another launcher, but I like Sense 3. I know there are tweaks for the app drawer, but I want to do the same on the home screen itself.

2) increase the number of pages? There are 5 at the moment, but if you use a lot of widgets, it eats up the available pages.

Many thanks and apologies if the terminology is not right,

i know it has been asked before, but is anyone working on an hbo app? I can go to the website to watch, but it is so choppy. My wife's ipad has the app and its awesome. I have the app on my atrix phone and its awesome. My galaxy tab...not so much using the browser.

I use dolphin for pad and just use the website. Once a video loads up and plays for a minute it starts to freeze or looks choppy. But I waited it out once and after a minute or so it plays just fine. Just have to wait out that initial freeze of video, only takes a minute or so.

Would love an app though. Maybe with ICS.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] reeceb73:
i will have to try dolphin. I am using hbogo on my wifi at the house. I have comcast high speed internet. i have no problem streaming on my computer. I have no problem with my wifes ipad using the app. I watched a whole episode of band of brothers using the stock browser and it is really choppy.

It will have moments of being really good, but then it will change resolution and stutter. The video wont keep up with the audio. It makes it very difficult to watch.

Hi guys,

I've just dumped my Desire-Z on the wife and going back to my X7500 as my main device. I spent the past couple of days reading old reviews about how good this piece of kit is and dusting off my software etc. Hopefully i will find a worthier successor sometime but for now, i'm glad to be back in geek heaven. :-)

So, how many of you are still alive on here?

Which ROMs are you all running? (AGB v3 here)

Hi

few things i want to know related to the backup of my Galaxy SII Stock Rom...

.>

ITs an UNLOCKED ROM (No carrier Limitation)

.>

My DEVICE state - Rooted

1) Which application can take proper FULL backup of the same including every app settings etc

2) Which application can take proper FULL backup of "Just the ROM Only like factory Samsung " - noting else with no settings no contacts messages apps etc.

or for that i have to factory format it then take backup only?

i request you to mention the backup methods and the safest one in-order to avoid any further issue and if possible kindly explains a little.

regards :)

[Nook Color General] hitsndc:
A lot of apps that i could download are no longer available on the market.

For example the game "spades" shows up but no download button appears. I could download that app before as well as many others. But when I wiped my nook those apps were not downloadable from the marketplace. So i use my phone to download them and then put them on my nook.

Is there a fix for this? :mad:
[Nook Color General] hikersc:
Assuming that you are rooted, it depends on what you are running.

If you are on rooted stock 1.3, there is no known fix for the missing Market Apps (or missing Install button).

If you are on CM7, there are ways to get the Market to show the missing Apps by adjusting the LCD density. There are differences of opinion as to whether this fix is temporary or permanent.

Search a little and you will find a number of theads discussing this issue.
[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:
I found a Wireless Tether Widget on the Free Amazon App of the Day called Tethering Widget. It REALLY works on my Xoom and HP Touchpad. Created a SSID, Password, used WPA2 PSK. I FINALLY get Free Wireless Tethering

Typing this on my HP Touchpad using the Tethering Widget. My wife has it and so do I and are Photon's are ONLY Rooted. Works Great. Xoom is stock and NOT rooted.
[Xoom General] tigerknight:
I did the same thing with my xoom and epic. Epic is rooted and has the wifi hotspot apk, then the xoom just connects like a normal wifi AP. no widget or app needed.
[Xoom General] cwizardtx:
I don't understand, the Xoom can create a portable hotspot right out of the box. Why should I install a second app to do the same thing? Is it better or more functional?

---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM ----------

PS: Using a 3rd party app to tether doesn't make anything free; in other words, it doesn't negate the usage of your data plan with Verizon.
[Xoom General] Ferradinho:
Also trying to figure out the point of this post. If you have a 3G/4G enabled Xoom it already supports tethering and hotspot natively. The usage just goes against your data allowance.
[Xoom General] ntron1:
The point is that those of us wiith wifi only Xoom's can get the same features as those with 3G/4G units. We just do not have seperate data plan to pay for like the Verizon people.
[Xoom General] marcozark:
Thanks for the heads up...I'll look for it!
[Xoom General] rj2885:
Ugh. Still confused. If u are wifi only and connected to wifi then why broadcast wifi so others can connect? Why not them just connect to same wifi as you? Still don't get how a wifi only can get same functionality as 3g xoom...

Edit..unless u are using tethering app on a phone and connecting xoom to it, but that doesn't explain subject of this post stating a tethering app for the xoom
[Xoom General] vamp6x6x6x:
Ok, this is only a guess but:

Say for example I already am using my phone as a mobile hotspot for the 5 devices that I am allowed to; but I want a 6th device to have internet, so I would have to let the 6th device use the wifi redirected from my Xoom so it would use wifi also...

Again, that was only a guess

bumping this old thread in hopes there's a solution?

a guy on the miui forums said to go into settings/calls/phone security and enable 3rd party app access, but I'm not seeing this feature on 1.11.25 :(
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] oscarguasco:
Hi, You don't need a 3th party caller ID on MIUI Rom, if you want a full picture you just need to do the following:

Edit contact, and Select "Add photo"

Pick the photo you want as caller id

When it ask if you want to replace the current photo select NO

save the contact

Now every time the contact call you, you will see the new photo as full caller ID

Only problem you have to do it for every contact

I hope this help you
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] jbird951:
Thanks, while this does work it's not as configurable as BIG Caller ID! I know you don't need it, but I don't really like the default one so I'm looking for a way to use this other one. Also the stock one doesn't sync pics with your FB cointacts

[Eee Pad Transformer General] onfire4g05:
Last night my Transformer started acting up. I was browsing Facebook, and then I hit the back case just right while setting it down and the screen went all green and purple (garbled/glitchy). I kept pressing it and eventually the screen completely shut off, though the backlight was still on.

In this small "how to", I will show you what you need to reconnect to get the screen back to operational status.

There are two sets of tear down pics for the TF that I found. One comes from XDA member hybridau, found here and the other is Tech Republic. I'll be linking to pics from Tech Republic along with my own as they were a little more informative.

Take the device apart. Torx T5 is needed for the bottom. Work your way from the end they show in the picture here. Then, press down hard (but be gentle :)) on the side until the bezel disconnects from the base (pic). Next, gradually work your way around until you get to the dock connector. I used a thin piece of plastic to go around the edges, but I've heard a guitar pic works well (I don't own one). Note: for me, the dock connector was the most difficult part of the bezel to remove.

Remove the four screws around the screen area and then the three around both long sides (six total).

Turn the device over (screen facing down) and remove the back cover (pic).

Now, look for the piece in the pics below. The ribbon needs to be pushed all the way in where you can't see any of the connectors. Mine was visibly out of place. It won't be fully out of place. I used my fingernails to gently move it back into place one side at a time. You may want to try something else... it's not the easiest thing to move back since there is tape that was/is supposed to hold the thing in place.

Full device view:

That's it! I turned it on while it was apart to make sure screen worked, but that's up to you. :-) Put it back together the reverse way... much easier putting it back together. I put the bezel back on the opposite direction I took it off.

Little background on the device:

The device has been dropped a few times while in a protective case or when tossing onto the bed (no visible signs anywhere on the device -- seriously, the device was thrown and dropped more during shipping than it was in my possession), so I called ASUS and they issued an RMA on it. Of course, if the issues are caused by you (dropping), you have to pay. Regardless, shippings going to cost some money.

Thus, I took it upon myself to fix it. I knew it had to be a ribbon that was disconnected because I doubted it was any kind of screen problem. I had also read in another thread here that that when they sent their TF off the return said all the techs did was reattach the ribbon. What a waste of time, money, and effort?!

Anyway... hope this helps someone with the same issues I had!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thebadfrog:

[Atrix 4G General] gsingh2011:
By default, CWM makes a backup to my external sdcard. The only problem with that is my sdcard is 1GB, which is a little under the total size of the backup, and so the whole backup doesn't complete. One solution would probably be to remove the external sdcard and run CWM so that the default storage location would be the internal sdcard, but that's annoying. There should be a way to specify the backup location.

EDIT: I removed the external SDcard, and now I get the error E: Can't mount /sdcard. So I guess it won't use the internal card if it can't find the external one... So I pretty much can't backup my ROM. And the problem can't be that it doesn't see the internal SDcard, because I can go to choose zip from internal sdcard and it will show the folders from the internal card.
[Atrix 4G General] FtaWolf:
If you using romracers cwm you have options for both..
[Atrix 4G General] gsingh2011:

EDIT: Yup, romracer's cwm work's great, and it was easy to flash.

this is actually just a widget and not an app in the android market. In other words it does nothing other than add a shortcut to your home screen on android. I use the built in WiFi tether that came with tytung Rom for hd2 and seems to work just fine for me. Make sure you select WPA2 and not open.

There're two additional patches in the patch set:

The first patch (0004) is a fix that allows to properly offline the secondary cpu when screen is on.

The other patch (0005) applies the same concept of the dynamic frequency range regulation to the secondary cpu hotplugging: when the screen is off also the secondary cpu (cpu1) is kept offline, when the screen is on the secondary cpu is turned on/off depending on the load on the primary cpu (cpu0).
