[Off-topic] Silent8Strike:
I have the Alienware M14x, and I would say it was worth the money. I paid $1500 CDN with taxes for mine. Its compact enough to travel with and powerful enough to play any game around for LAN parties. It has graphics switching so the battery life is very reasonable for a gaming laptop. The build quality is also very solid, and TBH I really like the way they look. But, if this is your only gaming system I would recommend a desktop, you will get a much higher price/performance ratio. I bought my laptop so I didn't have to drag my gaming desktop around, and it does its job beautifully.

The thing is that laptops are wasted when used for gaming.

Consoles are for gaming, or else, desktop pcs.

Call me stupid but I sold my Asus Transformer and kept my gtablet.

The feel of the asus didnt feel right in my hands. it was thinner and smoother.

But after loading Flashback 9.0 on to my gtablet its just good.

Havent had the Asus transformer for long but I figure I can always buy it again when tegra 3 comes out.

Did I make a stupid move?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abu-7abash:
Yes.

Don't get me wrong the G-tab is great and it's only that for the awesome devs we have here. But there's simply no doubt about the Transformer beating our unsupported lost tab. And the transfomer has only kicked off, it still has that promised 2nd OS upgrade from Google whatever that maybe. But it all depends on why you sold it out in the first place, if it was for the needed cash or sth then by all means, you were right.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
The GTab was/is a great tab. It was my first foray into the world of android tablets. Learned a lot from it but it, as all device do eventually, arrives at a point referred to as EOL. (End Of Life). Development winds down as newer devices demand attention from manufacturers, developers and end users. The GTab, like others, will become niche devices that basically the "die-hard" fans will continue to use and enjoy.

Technology moves on. Sometimes sad but true.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TEK112:
Not at all. You like what you like and no one can tell you otherwise.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydave1:
It is a smart move.

The gtab still can serve for a long time to come. Selling it would result in loosing money.

The sale of the Transformer now would loose less money. The money from the sale may be enough for another one which is twice as good by Christmas, maybe. :)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astro_beta:
I've just bought an Atrix here in Australia that was sourced from Kogan and I was wondering what software upgrade options are available for this particular model. I was hoping to get an official build of 2.3.4 running, but from what I've read, that won't be possible (note that Kogan have no idea how to upgrade it even though they list it as "upgradeable to 2.3"). So my question is, what would I need to do to be able to run a 2.3.4 based rom, if anything?

Below is the basic device info...

System version: Version.4.4.23.MB860.Vodafone.en.EU

Model number: MB860

Android version: 2.2.2

Baseband version: N_01.95.00R

I've also had some problems enabling 3G data on the Australian Telstra NextG network (tired all the possible APN configurations), but that's an unrelated problem at the moment. ;)

Coming from a Huawei Ideos X5 and before that a HTC Magic, the world of the Motorola Atrix seems a little confusing to me. So any help is much appreciated.

Cheers :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iunlock:
Where precisely are the antennas located?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heygrl:
At the top and bottom. The Cellular antenna appears to be primarily at the bottom, GPS, WiFi and BT are at the top covered by two small pieces of plastic. It's fairly obvious to spot the ones up top. I don't think this phone has RX diversity like the Sensation 4G but it still has better reception regardless.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iunlock:
Thx for the input.

When you take the back cover off you can see three areas where there seems to be like a tape like substance put over the area.

One is on the left near the power button.

Second is toward the top right.

Third is on the very right top.

As for the cellular antenna....it's for sure at the bottom below the battery??

Thx!

Also waiting on a response...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heygrl:
The bottom definitely has the cell antenna, no ifs ands or buts about it. We need to wait for the FCC documents to come off ice before we can know 100% but I think the 3 are BT/WiFi, GPS and NFC.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] juntjoo:
So it would be under that cover over the speaker then?

It's behind the speaker, yes.. but it's behind the back shell and depending on the design, probably in the back shell like on the original Galaxy S.

Is there some topic where i can follow the development of CM7 for HTC CHACHA? Will it ever come or not?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankimm:
Greetings fellowmen!!

Recently i thought of rooting my nexus 1. So i did some research and found out that the easiest way to do it was by unlocking the bootloader installing a custom recovery (I did Amon Ra) and then wiping the data\factory settings and flashing the cm 7.1 zip. So i did all the above and there you go....I had an n1 running cm 7.1 smoothly but then after a few hours it starts to piss me of. The problem is that whenever i lock the homescreen with the power button and wake it up again it just displays the main homescreen and does nothing i cannot navigate to the left or right homescreen cannot open app drawer in short it just hung up there doing nothing. I had to take out the battery atleast 15 times. I rebooted my device and it kept on giving me the same problem.

So then i reflashed cm 7.1 by wiping the data and factory settings and installing it again. But still it gave me the same problem. So then i thought of flashing 7.0.3 version instead and surprisingly that works like a charm. So is it the mod thats buggy or is it my phone.

One more question. I have the stock 2.3.4 gingerbread rom which i got from here!!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1061648

This one in particular-

GRK39F OTA (stock vanilla - odexed, unrooted):

MD5: 35C8B4B9FD22DD4CA19C5D026E74411D

So to install this rom do i have to install it the same way i did cm by wiping data/factory settings and then installing flash from zip or is there any other way to do it ?

Thanks in advance for taking out valuable time and reading my long problem!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stickerbob:
I am running the latest version of CM 7.1 that was released within the last week or so without any issues. Got it from here. http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=passion

Before that I was running the RC for 7.1. One thing to try it wiping multiple times before flashing. I assume you are running Amon RA 2.2.1, which is the latest. I have never had a problem with that recovery, however I flashed my ROM with this recovery. So far I think I like it better than Clockwork and Amon.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1291970

As for installing other ROMs yes you do flash them the same way you flashed CM.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankimm:
So are you saying that it was the recovery that was causing the problem?

Yes I am using the latest Amon Ra 2.2.1 version.

I also got the rom from that link.

And can you explain whats the difference between all these recoveries?

Thanks for replying!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stickerbob:
I am not saying it is the recovery, I highly doubt that is the problem. I was just comparing differences. There does not seem to be much difference in the recoveries for what you are trying to do. The recovery I am running is a fairly new one that I just wanted to test out. I do think I like it better than the others.

First thing I would do is wipe 3, 4 or 5 times before flashing. I have had rare occasions where a single wipe would not do it for me. Also have you verified the Checksum of the CM download? Does recovery say it installed successfully? I have also had error installing a ROM in recovery but then had the phone still load the ROM.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankimm:
Yes i did check the md5 checksums and they match perfectly. Though i did wipe it out only one time so maybe that could be the problem. I think i should get clockworkmod and wipe it through that and then flash cm 7.1. Amon RA doesnt really give us the option of wiping the system partition. right?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
Correct Amon Ra does not have an option to format system partition. It's recommend you also wipe system when coming from a different ROM.

Try this file by temasek's, format-signed.zip

http://www.mediafire.com/?8vbd13b440coxx6

just flash it in recovery and it will clean everything, now you can flash CM7.1 again
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stickerbob:
Are you sure you can't wipe the system with Amon? I remember having that option, but it's been several months since I have used that recovery. Kind of makes me want to flash it to find out. ;)

Before flashing a different ROM I always wipe system, cache and dalvik cache. It is definitely important to wipe the system before flashing a new ROM. I'm sure that is where your problem lies.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bassmadrigal:
No, ClockworkMod has it, but Amon_RA doesn't. Supposedly it is in the works for the next version, but that was a long time ago when I heard that (probably back when v3 for clockworkmod came out).
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankimm:
I did a nandroid backup and flashed the format zip file and then flashed cm 7.1 and its giving me the same problem!!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -_-Help-_-:
Why not stay on CM7.0.3 theres not much difference between the 2

if you dont want to i suggest to try to flash Clockwork recovery and do a full wipe then reflash CM7.1

But still I want to see how 7.1 is!

This may sound weird, but my home button has ceased to function.

last night, after much reading of DoomLord's & other dev threads i managed to install Wolfbreak's TW GB custom ROM v6. Currently running on 2.1.71 baseband version on my Xperia X10i.

So far, so good. Loved the interface and started installing my previous apps from appbrain.

Downloaded Taskiller and was basically trying to set certain apps in the ignore list. In this process, i *may* or *may not* have killed a few system processes. Specifically, the process related to gmail authentication. Thereafter i have been getting google login errors. But did not expect that this would affect hardware...

The home (middle button) is not working. Long press does NOT bring up list of recent apps.

Lock screen is also not working. clicking the power button only turns the screen off but doesn't lock the phone. Long press of power button brings up only two choices - "Restart" & "Reboot". do no get airplane or silent mode options.

Is there anyway i can fix this without having to load the custom ROM again? have tried restarting the phone hoping that system reboot will reload the correct files. that has not helped. If a minor error like incorrect process kill has created this probem, shouldn't there be an equally minor solution? :rolleyes: :confused:

Would like to hear your thoughts on why this is happening. let me know if i am overlooking something....

----------

Realised something more problematic after 1 hour. Although i see a 4-bar signal from my network, i am unable to receive any phone calls. i tried calling up my phone and it either rings once followed by busy tone or just gives a busy tone instead. this is worrisome! a phone update is not supposed to be do this.

i believe there have been other similar problems regarding power menu & home button for other users of Wolf's GB v6. have not been able to find a solution though. has anyone found a way to beat these hassles?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
I think you should start over.

Flash back to stock using flashtool, then root, install xRecovery, and flash the rom again.

You should also try re-downloading the rom, it might have been a bad download.

Good luck...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crackednut:
still don't work

Hi Frosty666, did just that. Realised i couldn't recieve calls while at work. Imagine being told that by a frustrated co-worker! :D

Got back home and re-formatted system with v6 ROM again. Reflashed it with the .71 baseband provided on wolf's thread. it worked ok until the first time i rebooted. am back to the same problem now though. home button doesn't work and am STILL unable to recieve calls. Power menu also shows only two options. I've seen this issue surface on these forums before. Correct me if i'm wrong, but has there been a solution to posted somewhere?

Honestly, am thinking of just shifting to another ROM. being a non-techie, i only wanted to experiment with flashing a custom ROM. having a phone that can't take calls is a dissapointing result. would you please suggest a stable and effective alternative? Cyanogen MOD, MIUI or anything that might just work.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
Sorry to hear that.

There are plenty of good roms out there, it just depends on your preference. I have only really used Wolf's rom out of all the current roms.

One that caught my eye is T.E.A.M. which is a modified stock rom that looks quite good.

Everything is working apparently, plus there's extra features and additions that are useful. On top of that, the transparent theme looks brilliant.

But have a look around for something that you like. Bear in mind that stock based roms are probably the most stable.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Futura2000:

Thanks futura2000. will check up nocturnal ROM as well.

A doubt here.. i took a back-up of my SE stock ROM using xRecovery before i flashed wolf's v6. is there any how-to guide that will help me restore my back up ROM? i had a .71 baseband on the stock ROM, so would that fact that i've reflashed with wolf's baseband+kernel (also .71 BB) affect my backup plans?

pardon me for so many questions. Just would like to be sure before i proceed with something i'm not familiar with.

Yeah, just give a try, i'm also not that techkie~ just normal person who have a good looking and good hardware device but with lame stock os.

but no worries, i've been save by T.E.A.M. As for my personal opinion, this is the best custom rom that i ever tasted! plus the creator do listen to our issues.

T.E.A.M rom is easy to flash as long as u have done the xrecovery thingy. Flashing this rom just as easy as 1.2.3...

i hope what i state will not rise any bias on other custom roms. if really do, please be happy to delete my post.

anyway, just give a custom rom a try, out there, there is many potential developer!

If i'm not mistaken, just do the restore through exrecovery will do. it will restore all your previous things. though i'm not so sure.

in my case, i did made a back up of T.E.A.M rom, then i flash to other custom rom, then when i'm about to change back to T.E.A.M rom, this is what i do

1/ factory reset,

2/ wipe cache,

3/ wipe dalvik cahce.

(done in xrecovery)

not sure step 2 & 3 necessary or not, just push it since i want my phone to be clean. :P (just my very own thought)

Correct me if i'm wrong...
