I got my A1 today... I think it is a lemon. The touchscreen is bad, poor response time and completely non-responsive at times.

I have to think that I will be returning this pending a call to customer service to see if they can offer any advice.

Beetle> what did you use to root it? Are you able to calibrate the touch screen at all after root?
[Kindle Fire General] tinybeetle:
I used SuperOneClick v2.2

I did not need to calibrate so I don't know. You will need the ADB drivers to root. I have placed them on my website at: http://www.tinybeetle.us/A1_USB_Driver_20110816.zip

Good luck.

This exactly. I have the OG Galaxy Tab and I can count the number of times I've used the cameras, microphone, GPS, or bluetooth on it in exactly zero hands. But I've read books, watched movies, and surfed the web on it a lot. The one thing that I might miss on it is gmail and google calendar, so for that reason I might try side loading without root if possible, or I'll root to add those and then unroot. And then I might be in the market to sell a slightly used unactivated T-Mobile Galaxy Tab.

Just to be certain the Lenovo does not have an IPS or VA display. As held in portrait mode up/down angles are OK but left/right angles are bad: inverted colors and the rest.

Sorry to intrude, but wanted to mention another Lenovo IdeaPad A1 thread that is pretty active here on XDA. Perhaps if we all ask nicely we'll get a real forum section.

Regarding the viewing angles. It has only one bad spot. If you hold it in Portrait it would be the left side, if in Landscape with the Lenovo logo on the left then the bad viewing angle is the bottom.

Finally,

Its available now.

Update your skype and enable it from the settings.

By default the Video is "off". So you will need to go the skype settings and enable it from there.

The Quality of the video is not that great but well its a start :-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] short/y:
I tried it on my G2x running CM7 nightly 151 and couldn't get it to transmit any video -- wouldn't even display locally on my screen in the little window that comes up in the lower left corner. I tried front and back cameras and even disabled video and re-enabled it. Still nothing. It may work on stock and may even work on later nightlies, I dunno. Google Talk video chat works fine for me so maybe Skype requires some updated libs?

Just passing on my experience.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] srialva:
I see that the front camera orientation while video calling is upside down. Anyone to confirm my observation???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Danishswag:
I have the same thing going on as you, except I'm on Weapon G2x (2.3.3 Rom), it said skype wasn't 'officially supported' on my phone though. Nice to see it's almost there though
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
yup....on tweaked stock now...but Camera is upside down...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pecata:
True, but if you turn the phone in landscape mode the video will be in the correct position.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noodles2224:
Not just landscape mode, you gotten disable rotation and zooming to make video work properly? Anyone receive a SMS through carrier while on video chat and and video get distorted? Mines did but MAYBE because I wasn't on wifi, my thought only..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
realized that in a skype conversation. my Phone is now complete!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spunix:
I tested everything on Stock 2.3.3 and the only thing for video to show up correctly is in landscape mode. Leave the auto-rotate checked, it doesn't fix anything. Picture is so-so but at least FFC works which is better than nothing...

Just before I updated to Mango (from Mango beta) I did a hard reset so I would have a clean install. Also made the backup process easy, as nothing was loaded on the phone during the update.

Problems occur sometimes when something is missed when delating i.e deleting cache, dalvik cache or factory reset etc is missed. Did you do all?

Also i once had a problem because i was using a download manager and partially paused the download. When i switched my laptop back on to resume the download ...it did resume and it did download the entire ROM but somewhere something got corrupted and i couldn't get past the boot screen.

Above is just my personal opinion. No harm in trying to re download a new ROM.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MILH0U5E:
Heads up to those that upgraded with an available upgrade to the ET4G...

SPrint is trying to charge me a prorated charge for my plan after upgrading. So not only are they charging me for my plan, but they are charging me another 129 as the prorated amount to upgrade the phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
You mean the cost of your phone? What you're saying doesn't make any sense...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MILH0U5E:
They were trying to charge me first and last month for the line since I upgraded it.

I was on the phone with account services when typing, I got them to credit my account for the charge as the person from account services said it was definitely an error.

Funny thing was how much the chat agent tried to lure me into accepting the charge with a discount (because it was an acceptable charge) And then upon calling in how the CS said that's how things are when upgrading a line. Whenever a line is upgraded, Sprint charges a prorated amount on the upgraded line... which is complete bunk.

Stupid Sprint...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Khilbron:
I could see them doing this if you were frequently delinquent on your bills.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
If your phone required a plan switch, they actually do cancel the old plan and pro-rate the amount that is due. Then they sign you up for the new plan. It is convoluted the way it is accounted for because it looks like they are charging you the full amount twice, but then their are credits to account for the pro-rating (ie the portions of the month you aren't using on each plan.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LexLuger82:
Bull****
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
I got no added charge. Not even a charge for activation. Got the phone for $89 (after figuring in the $50 back from BOA) from wirefly. My plan OS the same as when I had my Epic. Sounds like they are trying to **** you in the neck.

Hello community.

I have applied the MiniCM7-2.1.1 on my unlocked phone. Everything went fine but the signal has been lost.

The phone stills finds the network carriers in my country.

But when I try to choose the one I use, it says registering network and just after that "SIM does not allow conection to the network".

I've tried two different SIM form different carriers (I purchased an unlocked phone) with the same results

After MiniCM7-2.1.1 It was working OK

Now I've tried to SEUS and it went back succesfully to stock 2.1

But The signal problem persists.

Could you please advise / help??

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliusBrutus:
Hello.

My phone is starting to act funny, it has the quite common problem where the touch function on the bottom half of the screen stops working properly. :(

Since I'm going to send it in, I'd like to return everything to as close to the shipping state as possible. I don't care if I still have Clockworkmod left on it or if I make it unrootable, since I'm going to buy a new phone and sell this one when the contract runs out in a few months anyway.

I've tried searching for the info I need but there are still some things I'm unclear about.

The phone is currently running VillainMod and has ClockWorkMod installed as a bootloader. I was running CM on it until a few days ago, but I tried installing a Sense-based ROM to see if I could get the RUU .exe method to work, but it fails after the phone has rebooted and just says that it cannot update the phone. Any ideas what's causing this? (I used the file RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_3.32.405.1_R_Radio_63.18.55.06P_6.35.15.11_release_signed.exe)

So since the "official" method failed I found the rom.zip that is unpacked by the RUU program and copied it.

Here is where I'm not sure how to proceed. Should I sign the zip-file (using testsign.jar) and then do "apply update.zip" from ClockWorkMod OR should I extract the boot.img, data.img, recovery.img, system.img and radio.img files from the zip, generate a md5 file (how?) and restore it using the backup feature in Clockwork?

Or is maybe both of these ideas totally of the mark?

Any help is appreciated. Do tell if there is some more info you need.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jose_95:
I personally don't think you should go with that plan. I'm not a big scientist when it comes to phone development since I'm still learning. But I think you should go backwards and check what went wrong.

Edit:

I also think that the new rom might have different requirements from the previous one. Usually that causes a problem if you try to flash a rom without fitting the requirements.

[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
The phone uses the same chip of flash-memory for it's internal storage as well as the internal sd-card, so it's very unlikely you have a bad flash-memory.

If you have indeed tried with different cables and different ports on different computers the only conclusion possible is that you have a defective device and should get it exchanged.

[LG Optimus 2x] vrowdy:
I'm experiencing the following: stock 10D and stock 20L USB Mass storage was fine.

I then installed CWM, wiped, then flashed Modaco fr19 after a full wipe.

When connected, I get two extra drive letters in Windows. Windows disk management sees both cards (internal and real sd) and shows correct sizes, however Windows believes both cards are unformatted.

I then rebooted into CWM, wipe, flash Gr4 with Modaco custom kernel.

Now I again get 2 drive letters, but Windows considers them empty cardreaders, so when I try to explore them, it tells me to insert a card. So somewhat the same but a little different.

I also asked this at the Modaco forum but found this thread here and perhaps you guys here have any suggestions.

From Cwm recovery I can mount the external sd just fine by the way.
[LG Optimus 2x] vrowdy:
Well, I have resolved this issue...

I went somewhere else, to another computer. Connected the phone, installed drivers there and I could access both cards.
