[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
AT&T announced five new Gingerbread phones today.

Question is: so where's the love for our Infuse Gingerbread?

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2011/10/att-android-smartphones.html
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
Those are new phone releases...not updates to existing phones
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Tomdg07:
I think I may need to get me some Ginger ale to go with all this ginger spreading around :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
hmmm that samsung captivate glyde.... i want... but i will wait out the prime.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ryanscool:
It would be awesome if i got the gs2 or prime, my dad got my infuse, and my mom gets the glide, then we could switch off devices that would be so cool.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
Eh... I think we are aware of that. The point is, ATT is busy porting GB over to the new phones where new sales are. But there's no or less money in doing so for the existing phones aside from new Infuse sales.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jesi.james:
Optimus Prime wants the Prime. Lol

Sent from my nice little phone... or should I say huge gigantic beast
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
Haha, I noticed that too. :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tat2messiah:
I just bought a infuse and it is still froyo so no ginger love for new infuses either
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Yeah! It will go nice with my Asus transformer :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
Is it just me or the Atrix 2 in the pic looks way big.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
AT&T doesn't do the porting - Samsung does and AT&T delays the updates.

It was barely acceptable to release a Froyo phone when the Infuse was released - a Froyo-on-release phone would be dead in the market now.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
What do you think would be the motivation for AT&T to delay the updates; especially for their just-released SGS2? The only thing I can think of is needing to beef up support needs. But then again, versus the lost sales.

I had just finally convinced a buddy to go with the Android o/s and especially the Infuse or the SGS2. Then he came around citing his research that both phones are really behind the curve and that he minimally wants a GB phone now.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 00mred00:
People buy new phones to get the latest and greatest...there is your motivation by att

(Sgs2 has gb btw)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mizz lia:
Ooo yay a phone with a physical keyboard its tempting
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scyld:
Well just keep in mind that... gingers have no souls..

still waiting and waiting for samsung or att to release the GB update... oh did i say im still waiting !!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Sounds like your waiting for gingerbread to be released? I get this feeling I don't know I might be wrong

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Minoru7:
I've been waiting to get ROM-happy until the official GB releases, but this is killing me! I feel as trapped as when I had an iPhone! Let me out of this cage AT&T, and give me my dessert with some GB! :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
Try out some of the stable roms and taste the GB now. I also was anxious for the update and nervous about custom roms, but really who knows when they will release it, if ever IMO. Besides once they do release it I'll just be switching to another custom ROM built from that version anyway. So indulge yourself and enjoy some gingerbread now, then you can just switch over when it comes out. Or worst case flash back to stock and be an AT&T stock customer. Personally i'm using gtg465x's infused ROM and am very pleased, i've experienced none of the glitches written about and have been enjoying all the perks.

As far as this thread about the new at&t GB phones, i'm not impressed by any of them.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] seano666:
Ditto here, it does take some time and effort to read about what's available and familiarize yourself with how to do everything, but it's well worth it. Some of the ROMs on here are fantastic! Now I have GB, better reception/data speeds, no bloatware, faster phone, way more features, and root. Even if AT&T released GB today, they can suck it!

EDIT: Also, brand new phones never live up to the hype. Ever. They have multimillion dollar marketing departments to sell you on the phone before it's even out.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Minoru7:
I agree about the brand new phones.

Thanks to both of you for your suggestions! I may just jump in. I think some of it will come with having the time to dig in. Besides Infused, what other suggestions for ROMs should I try that are GB?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
I may just do that again this weekend. I've been on Infused 1.6 forever and I've gotten it to be almost perfect for my needs now. "Almost perfect" except it doesn't show my email or messages count, the vol, voodoo, e.g. settings get reset on a hard boot, no notifications occassionally, a few crashes here and there plus some other quirks.

I've gone and tried Serendipity but it has some other quirks as well. I guess I'll try Infusion or another flavor. Seems like all the dev work will resume and the issues will get fixed once they release and dumps the official GB version. Since one can spend a ton of effort getting it set to your liking, I don't want to repeat it real soon. Now, this won't be an issue if tibu works and gets my apps, themes, lockscreen e.g. restored perfectly. But we know that won't happen because the kernel e.g versions are different and most of the apps will choke without a complete reinstall.

So, what's the best ROM today?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] shiftylock:
The new phones look awful. Seriously with the pink enV knockoff that has about the processing power of a peanut?

._.

I think I'll keep my Infuse.

If I want a pretty android phone, I'll cover my old G1 in that diamond dust from arrested development.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
hmmm Asus has the transformer. Lg has the optimus, Samsung has the prime, Samsung has the transform, I dunno, maybe I'll wait out for the megatron!! You know something along those lines must be coming!

As for the glide I'll wait till I see what processor powers it and see how thin it is.I'd be more likely to get the sgs2 that's available now our the prime if anything at all this year.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] ryanbmw51:
New phones are junk compared to our infuse 4g. This phone is great! I'm not switching at all until I find large screen dual core ATT LTE capability powerhouse! Until then this device is rocking and rolling!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scottx .:
I really am liking that Atrix 2.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :

[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
That's just the best of the crappy phones, lol.

Don't be afraid

eXpeR¡MeNt
[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
The best ROM today in my opinion is the Infused v2.3.3 from gtg465x it's the most stable of all of them. And the latest rumor is he's about to release something new any day, yesterday or the day before he came on and posted a comment "pr3pare yourself..." That's all, so either do his v2.3.3 or wait till the mystery is revealed. I know a lot of people are anxious for whatever it is.

I'm on the Devl ROM now and it is working out incredibly well. It took a ton of work to get my setup backup and running and then some but it's all worth it. Batt use seems to be up but then again, I was doing a lot of nandroid backups and stuff.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inourstars:
I've got a transformer, and the screen doesn't appear to be working. My boyfriend bought it the first day it came out, dropped it, was able to play with it a bit. The battery died and he set it to charge, and after that the screen wouldn't work. The screen itself is fine, it just isn't displaying anything (He can't take it back for a warranty repair, because he threw out the receipt, that's why he threw it to me to look at).

When you plug it into a computer, the computer recognizes it and you can browse the files on it. When you use the hdmi cable to plug it into the tv you can see the screen of the tablet on the tv and you can use it, so it's not anything wrong with inside workings of the tablet itself. I took it apart and everything looked alright on the inside to me, nothing rattling around, and all the connections appeared to be connected tightly. I was able to see the slide to unlock symbol on the screen by shining a flash light directly on it while the unit was on, but it was really faint and hard to see.

Does anyone know what the problem could be? In a normal laptop I would say it's the inverter, but I'm not really sure if tablets use technology like that. I'm a bit at a loss here for what the problem could be and how to fix it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
Pretty close i would say its the digitizer though you will need to rma it to get it fixed
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicdave26:
Screens break in many different ways, just because there is no crack or leaking LCD look to it doesn't mean its fine

I would place my bets on the screen being damaged, although the board could have cracked or a solder joint could have come lose or a tiny tear in the ribbon cable

Screen is the most fragile though
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndreSKL:
I had the same problem, and after opening the TF everything looked fine too. It was not. What I did was to unplug all the cables and plug them all again. Problem solved.

Probably the screen cable got a little loose after the drop.

Good luck.
[General Questions and Answers] Nocx:
Hello all.

Cyanogenmod 7.1's changelog lists the following:

Common: Support for launching apps via gestures in the background - Jiri Tyr

I can't find the option to use this. How do I do it?

Does it mean I can draw gestures somewhere to launch apps I want?

Thanks for answering. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hustler2010:
So when I add an event to my Exchange calender from my computer, it puts it on my phone and automatically adds an alarm to the event. I never put the alarm in the event settings in Outlook, alarm is set to "none"...the phone literally adds an alarm to every single event all by itself. My old Evo never added the alarms automatically...anyone having the same problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sk63:
Same here. What's really annoying is that I can't remove alarms on events others have scheduled.

I haven't tried it but swapping the calendar app for the AOSP version *might* work. You probably lose the widgets.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hustler2010:
where do you get the AOSP calendar from?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sk63:
I pulled this from the Cyanogen source.

You'll need root and some way to modify the file system, adb or root explorer work well.

Go to /system/app and rename TouchWizCalendar.apk to TouchWizCalendar.apk.bak and copy the attached calendar.apk to the same location.

Reboot.

Only bug I've found (in the 10 minutes I've been running it) is that I have a large O in the top left of calendar screen but otherwise it looks like the reminders are gone.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] marygladys:
I did a search before posting so I apologize if I missed it, but the pen icon on my HTC Flyer is red. I first thought it was because the battery was dead in the pen, but I replaced it and the pen works. I opened up the Notes app and it writes fine....HOWEVER, I can't change the settings of the pen (like color, tip, etc.) because the icon is red and not green. Does anyone have any idea as to why?

I vaguely recall this happening once before and I think I had to completely take my pen apart and put it back together again.

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

i have a new Xoom with 3.0.1 from Telekom Germany here and i want to root it but i also would like to have the sd-card slot.

What is the best order?

Root 3.0.1 and then...?

install 3.1 OTA and root 3.1?

and when can i install CWM?

please help me....

thank you...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
What is the ultimate goal? Will you be flashing a custom Rom or a kernel? I would say that you should get any OTA updates first and then there will be a way to root and get additional features. Check out this guide to help you see a potential order to take, using CWM 3.2.0.0 R4c (recommended as made specifically for Xoom) and the Universal Xoom Root zip which can be used for all Xooms/all updates. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1249798

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theslashy:
thank you very much

the xoom is now on 3.1 rooted and with cwm

my main purpose is playing videos from my NAS so i flashed the tiamat 1.4.4 kernel

everything is fine i can use the sdcard with es file explorer but when i go to the settings and sd card the settings app crashes

the sd ard also ist show in the stock xoom file explorer...what can i do?

i think about flashing tiamat 2.2.2 but i cant find out if cifs will be working there
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theslashy:
also i dont know: when i flash tiamat 2.2.2 do i also have to flash a diff kernel or is it included??
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Well, the proper kernel is included in the rom. If you are on that update, you could also flash Tiamat Rom one.zero. That was a nice, stable rom.

I'm not sure what you are saying about the sdcard and settings app crashing...could you explain more?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theslashy:
Thats what happens:

When i go to settings-> storage (the place where you can see how much space is used) it crashes.

Can you say anything about cifs.ko in "morey"?

but overall it seems to run good, so i think I'll wait til the problems with the market in 2.2.2 are solved before i flash it.

thx

i got the same problem as jkumda here(last post):

[HD2 General] paleozord:
If I'm on the email tab in Sense, and I click on Send/Receive from the menu, and new email messages arrive as a result of that, the little message counter increases to show that new unread messages have arrived, but the message preview doesn't automatically refresh to show those new messages, so that I can flip through them as usual. Instead I have to go to another tab, then return to the email tab, in order to get those new messages to appear in the preview. Is that normal?

Is there no way to get the tab to refresh instantly so that the newly arrived messages show up in the preview right away, without having to leave and come back?
[HD2 General] johnerz:
Sadly I have no idea :)

but if you post your rom (win Mo or Android) then someone may be able to help :)
[HD2 General] Cenobite_:
Same behaviour in the latest Dutty's ROM. I just select a different email account and switch back.

Not the way I would like it. Oh well ...
[Thunderbolt General] Bwangster12:
So, I am going to do a lot more research prior to rooting, but I had a couple of general questions that I was wondering about, before I begin the steps leading up to rooting.

1) I presume the easiest way for me to root my Thunderbolt is the Revolutionary Root? This will take be through rooting and installing the CW recovery that I need, correct?

2) Right after I root, If I want to install roms/kernels? than I can just get Rom Manager from the android market?

3) Once I install Rom Manager, can I just flash a rom that is compatible with my Thunderbolt? Can I just flash a kernel that is compatible with the Rom?

I suppose where I get a lil lost is the flashing compatibility part. What kernels work with what roms, what roms I can flash... I have read a number of articles, so I suppose what I'm asking is...

Will the process more or less be: Revolutionary Root, Install Rom Manager from market, flash a rom (just the most popular one). Is the Kernel flashing piece important? Do I need to flash a different kernel? Is it easy to tell in Rom Manager which kernel/rom I can use?
[Thunderbolt General] davidbudd1:
Yes use revolutionary to root and install custom recovery (cwr). You can use ROM manager to download custom roms if you want, only roms for your device will show up. Or you can download custom roms from forums, this is the method I prefer.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Just use kernel that comes with the Rom for the time being some developers include a custom kernel and others make modifications to the HTC kernel itself. Kernels are seperated in development section having to do with sense and aosp that is the first way to seperate them. Second would be leak the kernel was based on such as imo test 3.8 was based on newest leak so it works for just about if not all newest sense roms. When in doubt fire up a question in the Rom thread itself and ask what kernels those people are using, find a Rom like BAMF or thunderstick or synergy where the developers or support staff are very active.

Also you will need to flash a new radio right after rooting if you are still using froyo, I am using newest leak but different phone work differently. Once you install the radio VIA Hboot. Reboot phone and remove zip file from root of SD card now place your Rom image on SD card and reboot to recovery and install your new Rom.
[Thunderbolt General] Bwangster12:
This is good info.. thanks.

Well, I am upgraded to Gingerbread as of VZW's last update and still unrooted and stock.

So, if I were to root (using revolutionary) and install Rom Manager... could I just install something like Cyanogenmod or BAMF right through Rom Manager?

What do you mean by kernel that comes with the Rom? The kernel that is listed to use with the Rom? Or do you mean if I flash BAMF or something popular, just leave whatever kernel I have as is?
[Thunderbolt General] bpyazel:
When you flash a rom it flashes the kernel too with whatever one the devs packed with it.
[Thunderbolt General] Bwangster12:
Okay, clear enough.

So, for someone like myself, just use revolutionary root, install rom manager and play around a lil with flashing roms using rom manager for awhile. I understand that I can install roms from my SD card, but it sounds like at least initially installing roms right from rom manager would be the simplest. I can also not worry about installing a different kernel during this "honeymoon" phase. Just pick the latest version of whatever Rom I want and flash the rom?
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
After you root you need to install superuser so CWM can function. I have read that some people flash their CWM via hboot after s-off and then go right to recovery to flash the root gaining RUU, then enjoy your root.

Do not flash ROMs right from CWM reboot to recovery clear data/cache and under advanced davlik cache and then install Rom from install from SD and choose zip file and I always store mine in downloads since I download all my roms right to my phone and download md5 checker from market and always check the md5 if it does not match don't think its a mistake redownload and try again.
[Thunderbolt General] davidbudd1:
Agreed, it is better to install the ROM through recovery instead of installing through ROM manager as sometimes it doesn't work right.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Don't forget to use thank you for all you great answers.
