Guys is there any way of using the 3G Usb dongles on the acer iconia ? Since it doesn't have 3G. Can we exploit the standard USB port using custom USB drivers ? I could not find a discussion around this topic, if there is any can somebody share the link .

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tff2011:
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to be able to have the tablet operate as a second screen for my laptop either via some sort of video in or even an app? If its unwired then a semi decent fps would be preferable 15+ ideally. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

I got a white SGS2 from T-Mobile as an upgrade, however I already have a black one. I don't want to un-seal the box as this would decrease its value, so would anyone who's had a T-Mobile (UK!) SGS2 be able to kindly say if it came locked and/or carrier branded?

Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kai_:
Mine came physically unbrandred but it was locked to T-Mobile and also had a T-Mobile splash screen if I remember correctly.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Blairware:
So okay, these are Touchscreen devices. Does that mean we have to just live with it, having the hi-res, beautiful display hampered by grungy fingerprints, and swipe marks? Not if I can help it (and I can!)

People who own these devices fall into two camps:

1) The ones that detest the fingerprints, and are super annoyed at how quickly the display gets marked up. Constantly wiping screen with a cloth, cleaning pad, wipes etc.?

2) The ones who don't give a crap.

For the former, of which I am a member, I have two really good ways of almost eliminating the print problem. It's not 100% but it goes a long way to do to resolving the issue. This is a 2 step process:

First, get some Rain-x or another brand of that type of glass treatment. It's designed for car, to make rainwater run off, and keep bug and crap from sticking to the glass. Pretty amazing stuff actually. Personally I don't think other brands are as good. Treat the screen with it 2x to start, then once a week or a bit more often (I do this about every 4-5 days) Leaves the glass feeling super smooth and slippery. It's an amazing feel, but really doesn't last that long. Also note I have no idea if there are long term effects that would have any effect on the durability of the screen, but is IS glass, hardened or not. I did this to my HTC Phone for years with no negligible effect that I could ever tell.

Second: Wash your hands! :rolleyes: They now have signs in all the bathrooms with instructions for morons who have trouble with this complex procedure.

Seriously though... I am not done. Like me, you may have noticed that after washing your hands thoroughly (did you remember to make a good lather?) your fingers end up clean.

Too clean! As in "Squeaky Clean"

and as you may also have noticed, this does not lend well to swiping on glass (even glass that is super slick with Rain-x) Here is the solution. Powder. Talcum Powder or Baby Powder. Sprinkle a tiny bit on your palms, & finger tips, wipe it in well.

This works AMAZINGLY well. Sounds like a big pain, but its really not, and after both Rain-x and a little talc, let's say 4-5 minutes to take care of, you can sit and use your tablet four HOURS and barely see a trace of any prints.

Of course it all goes to **** when you star eating fried chicken while web browsing, but I can't resolve EVERY problem now, can I? (Hmm, I wonder if those nitrile gloves would work on a capacitive touchscreen...)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bobloblaw1:
Uh what exactly is in rain-x? Whatever it is, I doubt the company envisioned people coming into daily contact with. Similarly, talc is a product that can be carcinogenic when used daily. However it would likely take many years.

Here's a safety sheet on rainx.

www.emedco.info/rtk/common/wcd00008/wcd00802.htm

While it doesn't seem awful as it's mostly water and alcohol (I don't know what some of the other chemicals are) it is only approve for occasional contact and it does warn the the product cancause drying and make one more susceptible to skin issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stcardinal:
I just my jacket sleeve to wipe :D

I've noticed that if it's squeaky clean it becomes harder to scroll and swipe so I leave it a little dirty/oily. The only thing I can't stand is dust.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
I'm definitely a number 2. I can't remember the last time I wiped the screen. I wonder what the white stains are...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
Screen protectors.

While I'm not particularly a fan of screen protectors, I was testing one recently for my Transformer and it fits perfect and you can't notice it... and one of the bonuses is that it doesn't show finger prints.

The Transformer is REALLY bad for finger prints. I've even had other people point it out. While I'm typically anal about finger prints, I use my TF too much to sit there and wipe it down every 5 minutes... and its summer so I'm not wearing sleeves.

I plan on writing a review for the screen protector after a few more days of using it. I haven't wiped it off yet since I cleaned the screen to apply the protector and it looks clean still.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Blairware:
Screen Protectors could help

I guess if it's a satin or similar, non-gloss it would be a big improvement over the stock glass... What brand did you get? I have gotten pretty good about laying them on a phone display, might be another story getting a perfect placement on a 10 inch screen!

bobloblaw1: Talc is dangerous? Kill me now! I would stay away from electronics entirely; according to Greenpeace: "Electronic devices are a complex mixture of several hundred materials. A mobile phone, for example, contains 500 to 1000 components. Many of these contain toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium and beryllium and hazardous chemicals, such as brominated flame retardants." Better sell the Transformer and switch back to smoke signals... oh ****, that smoke is just FULL of carcinogens... Want to sell that SCH-I500 cheap?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ExploreMN:
I don't think I would recommend this. Rain-X is for use on the external surface of a windshield. It has some staying power. Lord knows what extended contact can do to your skin or if there are other more subtle things that can occur to the sensitive lining of the nostrils or eyes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] magicdave26:
I just have a suede cloth i use when I notice prints
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jtrosky:
Hmm, an anti-glare screen protector is ALOT easier! Plus, it also reduces the glare and you won't have to lug around rain-x and talcum powder with you....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
lol...and i mean i actually loled. TMI though :P
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AlexTheStampede:
Another cool trick is to actually dry your hands after washing. It works equally well...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ronfiveo:
Dried Rain-x wont hurt you. Just use latex gloves when applying if you're paranoid about skin contact.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eakrish:
I have posted in this forum before and had one other question. With everything that Sprint announced on Friday, do you all think it is worth the switch to Sprint from VZW? I have the Bionic and get great speeds and great coverage with good battery life. I could save about 20 bux a month by switching. Is it worth it? BTW I am grandfathered in to the unlimited plan and pay about 96.00 a month for 900 anytime and unlimited everything else. Please don't flame just give your honest opinion. I have attached a speed test from my Bionic also. Thanks in advance!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] speedy0339:
How do u have sprint but have a bionic?

I would stay with Verizon, they will always be better than sprint. Sprints 3G is horrible, and they arent expaning wimax and lte wont even be an option till middle of 2012

I wish i had verizon with unlimited data...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I think it would be best to wait for phones that are fully capable of taking advantage of the Sprint Vision project. [LTE/1x advanced]

Those will be out next year.

Then, yes I can see a very good reason to switch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eakrish:
I am with verizon. I was looking into switching.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Sprint 3g sucks. Trust me. I wish I lived in an area that had Verizon service. My 3g speed is about 500 kbps max. Thats full signal.

Sent From My Evo Killer!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eakrish:
so not worth switching is what im gathering?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I really believe it would be best to make a decision like this in 2012.

Right now? I'd say no unless this is a financial decision.

Especially since you're grandfathered into unlimited data for Verizon.

Now, if Sprint Vision lives up to what it could be, then it might be worth considering in 2012 or 2013.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LordLugard:
Hot damm, i'm jealous of those speeds. It's not worth switching, definitely not at this point. VZW's LTE is up and running and you're definitely benefiting from it at the moment. No need to downgrade at this point. Even the "fastest est" tech Sprint can jigger their WiMax with will never come close to what you're getting now.

Also VZW's LTE is on 700mhz so signal penetration is eons better than Sprint's current implementation of WiMax. Also something that few seem to realize is something called soft handoff, which VZW's LTE implements. Basically if you move out of LTE coverage and back to 3G and say you were streaming data (music/video/e.t.c), you wouldn't get disconnected, it would just handoff to 3G and continue. Sprint's WiMax would drop the connection and in some cases take sometime to reconnect.

I remember the VZW suits came in gave us the low-down when their LTE was being launched and i thought that was the killer advantage at that time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eakrish:
Ok thanks for the input. I would give up some of the speed for a cheaper bill with similar coverage. Maybe I will look at tmobile's SGS2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oboroninja:
If you're thinking about switching from verizon don't even think about T-Mobile. Their coverage is pure unadulterated garbage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
But does Verizon charge extra for going over to 2gb of data? If so switch if you're a data beast like me, it can save you a lot of money. If not stay. I left tmobile because they cap me at 5gb and i use well over 5 gb in a week. It was easy for me, take the speed cut and enjoy true unlimited, plus I get great 4g in my area but as much as 37 mb/s WTF!!!

Sent FROM THE BEST PHONE EVER!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
Noooo!!!! Tmobile will cap at 5gb? You're speed will be as slow as 50kb/s, that's like having no data. I left because of that, I use 5gb in a week so I was depressed 3 weeks out of a month. With sprints 500kb/s 3g, and 7mb/s 4g for true unlimited, it was worth it.

P. S. Their signal sucks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Don't go anywhere yet bro. Wait for the nexus prime. Some say its coming November 3. Maybe a little longer but definitely coming. U have unlimited data with verizon and speeds that fast. I'm jealous. AT&T has the fastest speed in my area. It gets about 5 mbps down and 2 up. T mobile and sprint both get about 500 kbps and verizon is roaming in my area.

Ok..Ive been going back and forward with my self for a while now..And since i cant find any good lists of Pros and Cons of unlocking my bootloader I got to ask you guys..

I wonder both in general and if there is any pros and cons that are specific for the Xperia Arc?

And one last thing..Is the rooting of xperia arc 2.3.4 with an unlocked bootloader also known to give the "red led" problem?

Hope some of you can give me some good answers to my questions.

None, other than that^

I also can not flash any other rom. They just freeze in boot up. My phones a mess dunno what to do next plz help!?
[HTC EVO 3D] mikedavis120:
You need to use fastboot to boot recovery nothing else will work on the 1.50 hboot. Pull battery and hold volume down to get to bootloader. Open computer and navigate to sdk folders where u have fastboot.exe and open a cmd window in that folder (shift+right click and open cmd window here) connect your phone and type *fastboot reboot recovery* not the * part just the cmd then hit enter. Phone should boot to recovery. Now just reflash cyanogen mod and gapps and reboot. Should be all good then. Remember to wipe data cache and dalvik cache and optionally battery stats.
[HTC EVO 3D] xraypipeliner:
My ADB is in the platform-tools folder instead of tools so I had to move some files around. But its working now thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] mikedavis120:
U can only bypass your s-on by booting recovery with fastboot other wise you can't flash the kernels and ramdisk so essentially your errors were from running a 2.3.5 aosp rom on a 2.3.4 stock sense kernel. I'm surprised it even booted. Just rember to boot recovery with fastboot and you'll be good from here on out.
