I think its starting to happen to alot of people... mine went out a few weeks ago... but I'm at school and haven't had alot of time to send it in... thankfully I have an older phone with me.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuantuti:
best chance is you have to replace the digitizer, i tried everything i can to fix my but nothing worked, so i had to replace the screen. Motorola should follow Nokia and did some testing before selling the phone :(
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albanezi:
I understand that the UK will get the update in October but have no idea on which day? Is it worth waiting or should I just flash it through XDA...? If I flash will I get the same features as the UK 2.3.4 will have? I am looking forward to the HD recording and the panorama camera and with a bit of luck, a better battery life.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] narflynn619:
no panorama app on the XPlay, probably a hardware-to-software mismatch.. FW releases often (always) do not have a definite date of release.. it just comes by unnoticed until you read it somewhere or your phone updated by itself..

2.3.4 for XPlay has better battery life and has 720p video recording, at least it's the opinion of others who have tried the nordic version.. i'm still waiting for OTA

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahop420:
So the other day I was attempting to flash clockwork recovery on my tab after I succesfully flashed a rooted ROM via Odin. Clockwork freaked out (Yes, I was using the correct version, accoring to many threads) and the tab started booting directly to clockwork when powering on the tab or rebooting and just scrolling through commands it was running. Now I get the soft brick symbol at boot (A phone symol and a computer symbol, with a dotted line connecting them both to a yellow triangle with an "!" in it.

Now adb wont see it, and when dumping kernel changes during plug in via my linux box I don't even see it connecting and disconnecting from the USB port(s).

So I went to Radio Shack and got everything I needed to build the appropriate JTAG parallel cable in order to flash it directly from the motherboard. That went great, however, this is where things got tricky:

Nowhere, can I find the correct pinout for my tab. There is a post online that was apparently for my device, however, after I got the board out of mine I noticed that the pin setup is different, as well as component placement on the board itself when doing a visual comparison.

This is an overhead of the entire board:

This is a close-up of where I believe the JTAG pinout should be located:

Anyone who can help, has a good idea, or can point my in the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. If you have the information I need, I'll even consider donating to you for the trouble if accurate. I have searched and searched and searched. Again, thank you for any help as I am at an absolute halt.

Used at cvs

I used it at CVS twice already and I get all kinda questions. There is a website showing all kinda new phone coming out soon with the NFC chip. So it is only a matter of time that google puts wallet on them.
[Nexus S General] SComp23:
haha, good call.

No issues at all. I know not every pay station is like this, but when I tapped it with the phone, about 7 green lights lit up on the pay station, then I think my phone said "Payment Sent" or "Done" or something of that nature.

The cashier must have seen it happen before, or he must have had google wallet, because he watched me do it and said "just tap it there".
[Nexus S General] hellcatt:
i get lots of weird looks but no one has said anything. its like people are amazed that not only is there other phones besides the iphone but that other phones can do thing the iphone cant
[Nexus S General] HWOW:
I always tell my cashiers after the payment has been made, "didn't know I could do that" and smile at them. ;-)
[Nexus S General] red_skittles:
I used it at Tim Horton's the other day. I told the girl at the cash I was paying with PayPass then pulled out my phone, "Payment Sent", done. She gave me a look like "What are you doing, you can't do that" then the receipt when the receipt started printing she just looked shocked. But the best part of it all was when the lady behind me said "Oh is that the new iPhone? My husband has the old one so I', going to get him that one for his birthday." I'm like no its the Nexus S!! HAHAHAH:D:D:D
[Nexus S General] Esteway.619:
Hahaha that's funny. I like when people think of our phones as a "iPhone" especially when I have miui on my phone :D
[Nexus S General] red_skittles:
The best is when they think the nexus is an iphone then ask why can our "iphone" do things theirs cant. if they are one of those people who dont know much about different phones and OS i like to tell them they need to get an app called android hehe ;)

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Noob03:
Well like the name implies, I'm a noob. INC2 is my first smartphone, and it's been a learning process, but I'm comfortable with it. Either way, my service is currently cut off(by choice) there is a billing issue, and unless I stop being stubborn or they give my the credit I deserve I'm not paying.

Anyway it's been cut off a month, and I've still been using it over wifi just fine with 2.99 skype calling and text plus it's been no problem. Anyway, I took out the sim card and it's still working fine. Is that normal, even when I tried to make a call it sent me to Verizon cust. service like it normally does, and it still says in service in the settings.I was under the impression, that once the sim card is taken out nothing could be done with the phone. Can Verizon track what I'm doing without the sim card in? Or even when it is in and the GPS is turned off, can they track it?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
The sim is for world phone use......
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] diavolo770:
To expand on that, your SIM isn't required to use the phone in the US on big red's network. CDMA carriers don't use SIM cards; GSM carriers do. The Inc2 is a dual mode/hybrid/whatever you want to call it because it has a CDMA radio for domestic use and a GSM radio for use abroad.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sgiitk:
I hear that Gingerbread has been patched to support RUIM cards (CDMA SIMs) so with the patch you can run a RUIM. Then depending on whether you are on CDMA or GSM select, switch off, put in the corresponding card into the slot and start.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ABSquaredX:
yea pulled mine out a long time ago...but keeping it just incase...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
Is it possible for my friend then essentially to take my phone and throw his AT&T Sim in my phone and he is able to use it on there service? Or is there a SIM Unlock for instance when I'm in Thailand and don't want Verizon to charge me $1,000,000.00 just to make phone calls because normally i end up buying a cheap Nokia and SIM for only 50.00 and it lasts me for about 2 days on minutes when im overseas. I pretty much want to be able to use the SIM and not have Verizon charging me for International use when i'm using a different Carrier's SIM

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] faehsemc:
your not referring to this thread are you? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1122896 that one is about Driod 2.. I dont see any other Unlock sections. Would you mind posting a link to the correct one because i havent found it

Disregard..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] lair12:
The SIM is for foreign use for most of us in the US. I went to the UK recently, bought a $15 SIM card which gave me a new phone number over there, phone minutes, unlimited text and unlimited data. I got the unlock code from Verizon before I left. I was able to get the unlimited data by having a rooted phone and selecting my own APN settings.

I'll do the same later this year in Italy. Right now I am using a Virtuous Unity ROM which does not recognize SIM cards, but I'll just switch back to my stock Gingerbread ROM before I go.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mihneagabriel:
How did you obtain the APN settings for the new network?

Just trying to get ready for my trip to Europe this summer
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] k1mu:
The network provider has to give you that info. I got it from the company that rented me the European SIM card. I used iPhoneTrip.com, for what it's worth. Good coverage and no sneaky charges after the trip was over.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mattwood2000:

Magldr thread, post 1, line 4 "you must have 2.08.hspl"

What spl do you have? 3.03? Does 3.03 = 2.08? No.

Enter bootloader

Run Hspl4

Choose 2.08.hspl

Learn to read instructions. :)

If your next question is "but it still doesn't work" then you also didn't flash the right radio.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repast:
I am on the 0828 ezgingerbread. I have wifi sleep policy set to "never", because I need VoIP. This is a G1 with wifi on, sitting on the desk very close to the wifi AP, the battery drops from >90% to ~40% in 14 hours with almost no usage. I checked the battery usage and found "Wifi" used 60-70% power.

This is different from my previous experience with MT3G rom (froyo) also from ezterry, for that the battery drain was about half of that speed I would say, with wifi always on.

Do you also see the same high battery usage for wifi? Thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frodo1910:
I'm now with ginsense 2.3.7 from rushnees and i can tell you that it drains the battery.

As i know, wifi for a long-usage is better than 3G in the battery section.Ask to the developer about another kernel. :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Wifi alway drain battery if you constantly have it on. If that how much the drain is, you are pretty good. My would drop to the point where I have to charge it.

With the hundred or so various tablets out I have no clue which one to get. I have watched so many reviews on various android tabs. I am pretty sure I want an android tablet vs an ipad or playbook.

Basically just wanted to hear from a few people who have recently purchased tablets and are happy with them. Looking for a WI-Fi only tablet I don't want to pay a monthly data fee. Anyways lemme know what you guys have and how you like it.

Also want to add it's just for home use web browsing some email ect..

If you want something more powerful you should wait till Q1 for the new 4core Tegra ones. Then we are talking opportunities ^^

And should have no problem with true 1080p movies, for what I've hear at least none of the existing ones can handle it.

Something to think on when you get bored with the web browsing ;)

Im also in the market for an Android tablet. Im going to wait for the quad core 10in with vanilla ice cream sandwich.

[General Questions and Answers] bdearen:
Wow I didn't even think about ics. Can anyone give an estimate on when such a device would be available?
[General Questions and Answers] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
I haven't purechased a tablet, but I think I can still be helpful, as I work at a PC stor, selling tablets as well. So first of all, here are the tablets I've had in my heands and thoroughly tested:

1. Prestigio Multipad PMP7070C

Display: 7”, 800x480, capacitive

CPU: ARM Cortex A8 @ 1 GHz (Texas Instruments)

OS: Android™ 2.2 Froyo (Flash 10 Support)

Memory: 256MB DDR

Capacity: Flash 8GB

Communication: WiFi, Bluetooth

Others: HDMI, Camera, USB 2.0, G sensor

Cheap but not something I'd buy for myself. Bottom line - not worth the money!

2. Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101

NVIDIA® Tegra™ 2 1.0GHz dual-core CPU for excellent multitasking & HD video playback

Android 3.2 Honeycomb O.S. with Adobe® Flash® 10.2 support*2

Full QWERTY keyboard, touchpad input with Polaris® Office® for mobile productivity

16 hours long battery life for all day computing with mobile docking

Brilliant IPS panel with ultra-wide 178⁰ viewing angle made from scratch resistant and super tough glass

Nice tablet and really worth getting the keyboard as well - extends the battery life up to 16 hours (10 h w/o it). Tough Gorilla glass - deffinitely a good choice.

3. Acer Iconia A500(my personal favorite)

ACER ICONIA TAB A500

CPU: ARM Cortex-A9 1GHz

RAM: 1GB DDR2

Screen: WXGA (1280х800) Capacitive Multitouch

Internal Memory: 32GB Flash Memory

Wireless: Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n

OS: Android 3.2 HoneyComb

Ports: 3.5 mm audio, 1 x USB 2.0, 1 x micro USB, micro HDMI

Great performance, long lasting battery, Gorilla glass, USB port for the moments you just need to type faster ;) If I ever buy a tablet, it will definitely be the Iconia A500.

4. IPAD2 - a very nice tablet, fast and smooth scrolling b/w screens, but with all due respect to Steve Jobs, I hate to be asked for my CC number every time I want to DL an app ;)

5. Galaxy Tab 10.1 - a total knock off of IPAD2! Same design, same everything... By Apple's example, they even removed the memory card slots! Once you get the tablet, you are stuck with whatever you bought! No memory extension, no communication ports - just a WiFi and a 3G! Big NO NO!

6. Motorola XOOM - even though it has the same HW as Iconia and EEE Pad Transformer, in real life it doesn't perform as well as these two. Screen is not sensitive at all and the tablet works somehow slower.

Hope I've been of some help. Cheers.
[General Questions and Answers] bdearen:
Thanks for all the info I wil check out the acer iconia. I always thought the galaxy or the transformer whee the best tabs out there. Thanks for the quick review.

Has anyone tried this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Completely different architecture, and our device has no problems hotplugging in the second core when needed. If anything, it fires up the second core TOO soon and eats battery. Which is why airghi has a ton of patches that affect when CPU1 gets onlined... I've been working on cherry-picking some of them already.

Actually, those tweaks won't even work when the kernel is handling hotplugging of the second core.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] akira02rex:
I monitored the cores with system panel and noticed the second core comes alive just by touching the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Yup, as I said - it tends to fire up a little too rapidly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] link12245:
The second core being enabled actually saves battery life. Differences between voltage and frequency (clock speed) are not linear, so by using two cores at 250mhz it uses less power than one at 500mhz. Using two cores is a good thing.

If you call att they can reset to default from their end. Or, at least provide you the number to put into your phone.

You can just use your own phone number in the voicemail number slot. Or you can call in and get your actual voicemail number. Make sure you turn off the google voice voicemail also.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jgotti107:
Solution!!!

Go to Settings in the upper right hand corner of the Google Voice screen on your browser...

Go to the Phones tab... select the phone you want to remove GV voicemail from...

Click the 'Show advanced settings' link...

Next to the 'Forwarding Options' near the bottom of the list... click on the 'Deactivate' link...

In the pop-up, select your carrier...(AT&T)...

Follow the dialing instructions to disable Google Voice voicemail... for AT&T, it's ##004#

Worked on my SGSII. Hope it helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
Ok so yesterday I was messing around and clicked the 'Top HD Games' icon in my app list just to check to see if there were any new offerings at the Gameloft store for the tab.

When I landed at the webpage across the top the banner read " Acer Get Your 3 Free Games!". I had to enter the serial number of my tab and was instantly offered the games Asphalt 6 Adrenaline HD, Dungeon Hunter 2 HD and N.O.V.A. 2 HD.

I have no idea if this offer will show using a more customized rom. I am running the near stock 3.2 from ezterry. And I don't know if this is important or not but I let the app open the page with the stock browser.

Edit- Here's the link that the app sends you to in case your rom doesn't have the app...

I already own the three games that they are giving us, so it is a wash for me. Maybe some of you will have some luck. Post your success or otherwise below, maybe even reference the rom you are using.
