[TouchPad General] erick161:
Ever think its because every other platforms FB app has been recently updated..and WebOS has not?

Facebook now requires a GPS connection, hence why almost all mobile FB apps give a rough location now when you post
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
OK.. Next question.

About that SIM Card slot...

[YOUTUBE]6yiZT2nkIOg[/YOUTUBE]

Antenna? SIM Card? SD? Identifier? What IS that?

What exactly is that? Can you take it out? Can you insert something into it? Can you use it in some way?

If not...why would they include it...? It must be useful in some way...

That's odd...
[TouchPad General] N3m3515:
its the sim card slot for the 4g models. on all other models its a dummy with the serial number
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
and there is NO sim card hardware if you have a dummy slug, teardown confirmed

but it DOES have the pins and chipset to wire one in ;) but that would require a meta-doctor of the 4G doctor for drivers (webOS), but then CM7 would not work
[TouchPad General] cabro:
Would have loved to have had an SD slot.:(
[TouchPad General] Solidus_n313:
that would have been nice for the 16GB users, but im sure there will be a much easier method for OTG with a flash drive/sd card reader in the near future
[TouchPad General] iahk:
Read this http://www.precentral.net/how-webos-facebook-app-made-jobs-yell-zuckerberg to understand why facebook for webos isn't as consistant as official facebook app interfaces.

Regarding the via mobile message, like others said, it was updated for ios and android devices. It still says Blackberry, Windows Phone, etc for other platforms.

You can put your conspiracy theory to rest.
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
Okay.

Is anyone getting that Wifi and Sound problem from time to time?

Every now and then, the sound will become rattly. It just happens.

And every now and then, the WiFi will just stop working. And you have to reset it.

It's happening increasingly often..is it just me?
[TouchPad General] AlwaysLimey:
Noticing the WiFi issue for sure. Never happened before 3.4.
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
Um, in Android. What's with Facebook not working?

I see people with the icon on their homescreens. But... Why if it doesn't work.

It shuts down repeatedly.
[TouchPad General] iahk:
I never really looked into this issue since I browse the facebook website rather than using the app but I did skim over this issue. I believe it crashes because it's trying to pull your location and the touchpad has no GPS. Solution is to fake it. I think there's a fake gps app on the market to fix this.

As to why people have the facebook app. 2 functions. Contact syncing and ability to share photos via facebook app.
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
comment just disappeared
[TouchPad General] Pongopuffian:
What is the cause of the HP TouchPad's bulkiness? If you tap the back of your TouchPad with your fingernails, it sounds hallow- do you think they'd be able to issue out new backings that would make the TouchPad half as thick?

Another thing is, you can scroll through card view left and right, but why not up and down?

Ever notice in webOS, when you're interacting with card view and you tap to bring the card up and it's blurry for a moment- why does that happen?

Odd...
[Atrix 4G General] Banggugyangu:
Hello all in the Atrix forums.

I'm a Bionic user, and I recently created a guide for making and enabling a swap partition which works on both the Android side and the Webtop side simultaneously. An Atrix user sent me a PM today with an issue that I would like a few more Atrix users to attempt my guide and see if they have the same issue.

My guide can be found @ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1309712.

The Atrix user says he followed my directions to the letter and when he ran the script to enable the swap partition, he was faced with the following error:

swapon: /dev/mmcblk1p3: function not implemented

If anyone else is willing to try this out, I would be much appreciative.

Thanks in advance. :-D
[Atrix 4G General] turl1:
Sounds like that user's kernel doesn't support swap

On a side note, swap is enabled on the CM7 kernel, and possibly faux's kernels too. I don't see the point in using swap on a phone with 1Gb of RAM though.
[Atrix 4G General] Banggugyangu:
If all you use is the phone itself, then 1 GB is plenty, sure, but if you use the webtop feature, 1 GB tends to run short pretty quickly. Myself and many others have confirmed that phone and webtop operate much more smoothly with a swap partition than without.
[Atrix 4G General] paravorheim:
Also, doesn't the webtop mode only have access to about 200MB?
[Atrix 4G General] howie368:
I can confirm that enabling swap does not work in any of Faux123's or the stock 4.5.91 kernel on my Atrix. I tried the Op's method on a stock 4.5.91 fruitcake, alien 4, and darkside 2.5.1 with the webtopmod1.0 and the 2.3.4 webtop fruitcake. As well as on a locked 4.5.91 mostly stock rooted atrix with webtop2sd.

I don't have any machine set up for compiling linux kernels or experience doing it but it seems like, if you had the source for a kernel you liked, you could make the change or whip up a module for it then release it back here. It would be nice to see swap supported in faux123's 1300 OC UV kernel, that one seems to work very well on darkside and alien.
[Atrix 4G General] paravorheim:
Wow you flashed a lot of ROMS! But thanks for trying. I'm also assuming that all that would be needed is someone with kernel expertise to make a module or just tweak the kernel slightly. But alas, I am no programmer yet.
[Atrix 4G General] Banggugyangu:
There's an app by Sogarth called webtop2sd which repartitions the SD Card to allow for a larger amount of space available to the webtop. That app alone is recommended with or without swap, honestly.
[Atrix 4G General] paravorheim:
Sorry, I knew that. I was talking about the RAM available to the webtop environment.
[Atrix 4G General] howie368:
Good news, everyone! Faux123 has announced that he will be building zram support into his next ATRIX kernel. That should ease webtop's memory woes.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] chazm128:
I recently installed a custom ROM (liquid Gingerbread v3.0) onto my Droid 1. But in doing so I lost my root access, and now i can't use ROM Manager to either restore my backups or switch to a different ROM. Some apps say it appears that I have root access but none of the root apps work. I tried using super one click to "unroot" but that froze during step #6. I also tried using it to root and that also froze during step 6. I should also note that the power button on my phone is broke, thus preventing me from booting into recovery mode. What can I do????
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] chazm128:
I found a way to get into recovery, is there an easy way just to restore stock?

Back up and restore. Restore a backup

Sent from my Revolting Revolution. Powered my mtmichaelson.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] projektorboy:
There's a chance that you may have accidentally denied root access. You could have opened the Superuser app that should have been included with your ROM to ensure that SU requests weren't being blocked that way.

Also, when in doubt learn to use Recovery mode manually. You can't always trust ROM Manager to do everything for you. Sounds like it's best to manually wipe everything you can and install the ROM fresh.

I have seen first hand proof of this working. I had an evo 3d. Htc decided all futre devices would have locked bootliaders well that made alot of people angry. Someone posted a thread on xda suggesting we let htc know that is not gna fly. So it turnd out thousands of people got on there facebook wall and twitter. Guess what the next day htc released a statement saying that they wanted too keep there coustamers happy and that the bootloader would be unlocked. They were. Id like to be able too have a device and not have too get a new one juzt because moto or htc or sammy wants too put them out constantly get people too buy them and then ditch them and out out another. The atrix is 100 percent capable of runing ics and theres no excuae for it l not too recieve it just because moto wants people too buy new devices every couple months. I know many many people feel the same way well as i said we have the power too change that if people would stop bickering and take it seriously. And also if moto started supporting devices longer not just bug fixes but the new android flavors. Id definately make my next device a moto it would do nothing but benefit them
[Off-topic] Kailkti:
Why are we discussing/petitioning something that we don't know? Has it been set in stone that manufacturers will not support us anymore or is this all stemming from paranoia?
[Off-topic] silver03wrx:
Because it is the trend. And the atrix 2 has been released already. All the manufactures with the exception of sammy have been doing this more and more lately abandoning. Devices. And pumping out new ones. At a very fast pace
[Off-topic] Kailkti:
So you are saying they are not going to support the atrix anymore since they released the atrix 2? I'd rather wait till this actually happens before i draw a conclusion. e.g. when ICS gets released and they say they are not going to update the atrix.
[Off-topic] Papi4baby:
Look at the original Incredible.

My wife's one has been turned to **** since the 2.3.4 update, and nothing from HTC, and Verizon pretty much said too bad so sad. Buy another phone or deal with it.

So yes, support will be dropped for older models whether you like to assumed it or not.
[Off-topic] Kailkti:
No it is obvious support is going to be dropped for old models. But he is implying that models released this year will not get support.
[Off-topic] con247:
I think for every $10 a phone costs over $50 on launch day (on contract) is how many months it should be updated for. So a $300 phone should be kept updated for 25 months. So this would either keep phone prices lower or keep them updated.
[Off-topic] bleach168:
Facebook is a poor way of getting the attention of corporations. You want them to change? Buy a nexus phone. Money talks.
[Off-topic] Ace42:
I think ICS only has support for Armv7 currently, so phones with those SoCs will get updated. However, phones using custom UIs will experience a longer waiting time, maybe around early Q1 of 2012. HTC has released like 1000 phones in the last few months and I doubt most will get ICS soon, not sure if Moto will bother at all. But it might be better to wait and actually see what goes down, like you said.
[Off-topic] Handsome Rob:
Has HTC in fact locked a boot loader or withheld hardware drivers?

I intend for my next phone to be HTC just because of the hell Samsung put us though trying to get GB on the i9000.
[Off-topic] Papi4baby:
HTC new phones i believe i read come locked.

You can unlock them direct with HTC, but you loose all warranty. As per HTC.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
As I understand it, you lose all ROM related warranty, so for instance if your screen fails then you're still covered.

[Off-topic] IronMit:
I had a motorola xt720.... not the best phone..but was ok. Motorola decided to stop supporting it within 4 months of launch or something stupid like that. No new updates no nothing. And still insisted on the bootloader staying locked so the dev's found it alot harder to do their job for them.

I will never ever buy a motorola product again.

The market is fairly competitive ... don't buy from companies that pull this crap

Hi All

There are lots of battery calibration thread here and i tried one.

I depleted battery until the phone power off, then I plug into charger when it's power off cherged it until %100. Then unplug it and pulled the battery off, then press power button for few times. Then put the battery back on. Then pressed the power button but nothing happens.

Is my phone hard bricked ?

I m very sorry :( please help

Edit: I'm using samsung 2000mah kit.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crypticc:
I very much doubt that. Try just normal power on while plugged in. And not.

. Do you have a jig?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feryao:
try first with the stock battery and see if the phone is all right. if it is maybe it´s your 2000mah battery kit that is faulty
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastiannielsen:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2. When I did a firmware update, I did a backup of everything.

Then I did a firmware update, of course it failed, dont know why, I think it was because I was using a USB 1.1 socket on the computer, since the emergency restore worked when switching to a USB 2.0 socket on the back of the computer.

Now I have lost everything. When I try to restore, everything is greyed out. Had some important passwords saved into "Memo" in the phone and need to get them back.

How I do to restore the memo data?

The first attachment show the backup screen, and the second screen show that the memo (in swedish: "Anteckningar") is greyed out. Everything in Personal details (swedish: "Personuppgifter") is greyed out.

How I do to restore the memo data? Only option is to restore some photos.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastiannielsen:
Solved it. Did this, first I started recovery, since I had some heavy files, I could start a very long recovery.

Then I went into my document folder, where the SBU files are placed. Kies does a temporary extraction, so I could go into the file, and found a memo.bk file.

Copied it to desktop, renamed to .txt and found this:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audwin101:
Thanks!

Thanks a million buddy

Almost a year and a half later since you posted this, but you just saved me!

Had the same problem after updating from ICS to Jellybean, all my important data and password info in my memo files

When i tried to tick the box to restore, it was all greyed out to my disappointment.

So i started the restore process, when the error came up, navigated to the temp folder within Kies directory and BAM! memo file right there.

Thanks again!

[Epic 4G General] magoo5289:
The fragmentation of the android platform makes this an impossiblity. You would have to consider how many extra developers and QA techs the manufacturers would have to hire in order to continually maintain code for current and legacy devices. Prices of the product would skyrocket as a result and then Android would find itself a platform that no one would be willing to adopt. In short, it does not make business sense. A support life of two to three years, as already enforced by Google, is perfectly reasonable.

Don't want to deal with fragmentation? Get an iPhone, but even they drop support after two or three generations.

If OEM's would stop re-releasing the same phones every few months with extremely minor and irrelevant spec bumps, they wouldnt have to worry about extra coders and hiring more people.

Tjey waste more money coming up with new ads to try to convince people to go the next phone where the difference is its software version.

Theyd all save alot of money if they stopped throwing phones out every week. Look how hype everyone was for the n1. Less than a year later theres the nexus s? wtf is the incentive for upgrading to a phone where the difference is a ffc and no led lights? Faster access to new software? isnt that why i already own a nexus one?

Theyre all stupid now. The galaxy s used to be the iphone of android and we're already gonna see the gs3?

Anyone see the gs2hdKTE in korea? its a gs2 with hd samoled and lte

It has a dual core exynos Nd blahblahblah

So why should i get a galaxy nexus if the gs2hd has the SAME SCREEN AND BETTER INTERNALS?

Besides the screen getting too hot to touch, I'm worried about internal hardware getting fried. Has anyone noticed excessive heat outtake when running GPU intensive apps?

I haven't experienced this issue yet. The best I can tell you is first do a simple restart and test the game again. If that issue happens again then I'd recommend doing a master reset. If the issue persist after that then I'd say exchange it for another device. Most issues can be fixed by restarts and master resets.

Hi:

Here again after a long time. I need your help.

Introduction:

I usually had sync problems with my HTC Diamond and my PC (XP, Active Xync 4.5.0), since it was bought some years ago. Mostly with the calendar.

After several problems I decided to use Google Calendar and sync my Diamnod and my computer with it (Diamond and computer does not sync calendar anymore but thru' Google Server). Installed Google Calendar Sync in my PC and my Diamnod connects also to the Google Server to sync the calendar.

Tasks and sync among PC and Diamnod.

And Diamond syncs Contacts with Google Server and PC.

Problem:

Today my Diamond is not synchronizing Tasks and Contacts with my PC. It does sync and if I only choose to sync Notes and Archives it has no problem but if I try to sync also Tasks and contacs I get an 0x8503001C error code. This morning worked perfect.

Solutions:

I tried to uninstall the Diamnod from the Active Sync, the Active Sync form the PC,... but nothing worked.

So its your turn, please help me.

Thanks and best regards, JM.
