Thanks for your comment. Just noticed a couple of posts of yours and his as both of you seems getting on each other nerve(or its the other way around lol). Its just funny to read it rather than being a part of it.

OK, buddy I know how it feels deeply inside you. It's been a while since Nokia took the leadership as a world king of smartphones. Yes, once upon a time Nokia was superior in terms of (both) hardware and software and, then they failed in delivering a competing software in a timely manner, which gave its competitors the upper hand. It may seems that you consider Nokia choices as the best choices a cooperation could pick for its costumers. This doesn't mean you have to convince the other of what said to be a reality for you.

Also, I'll be happy in providing my psychological treatment for merely $100 per hour, but as a couple I'll charge both of $10 ($5 each). :p

Incredibly correct!

I hope my sense of humor didn't get any of you upset (Spent some time in new website I found themetapicture[.]com a funny site none the less).

The original thread with the files is located here

Basically this will allow your Android phone to display Softbank Emoji encoding. This is not limited to just your text messages, but will also allow applications to display emojis that people have in their profiles or whatever.

Things needed before you install:

1)Root Explorer (from the Market) You can use a different file explorer app, but it must be able to mount your system folder as read/write

2)A program that can open a 7z file (you can find that online here The file that is provided is compressed with 7z format. There is probably an app that can extract that on the market, but I haven't looked for it.

3)Your phone MUST be rooted!!!

To install:

1)Download the droidsansfallback.7z file to your computer

2)Uncompress the file and move the droidsansfallback.ttf to your SDCard somewhere

3)Go /system/fonts with root explorer

4)Click "Mount R/W" at the top

5)Long-press on Droidsansfallback.ttf and click delete and then Yes to confirm

7)Navigate back to where you placed the droidsansfallback.ttf

8)Long-press on droidsansfallback.ttf and click "Move"

9)Go back to /system/fonts

10)Click "Paste" at the bottom

You're done!

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Steven855:
I heard that Microsoft is currently sponsoring a contest for developers called the "Go Mango Apportunity Contest".

Every time you publish an app between now and December 31, 2011, you get an entry to win one of five Samsung slate tablet pcs. In addition, each time you publish 5 apps during this time period, you also get an entry to win free advertising for one app you made of your choice. The free advertising will run on the Windows Phone Application Network for about 60 days and include 25K impressions.

New developers to Windows Phone are especially welcome. If you're new to developing for Windows Phone or new to developing (programs for mobile operating systems) in general, I see this a great opportunity to get your program (idea) out there and get some recognition for it. If you've developed for Android or iOS, I found a "translation guide" that gives you the Windows Phone equivalent for the Android or iOS programming concept. The url for it is http://windowsphone.interoperabilitybridges.com/porting. If you don't have the new Mango SDK yet (or are working with an earlier version of the Windows Phone SDK, you can find it at http://bit.ly/GoMango.

More details and the code (and url) needed for entry (it's totally free to enter) can be be found at http://bit.ly/rEB5PY

Edit: If you can't get to the site, the code needed to enter is: E8YRA
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Steven855:
Update (11-25-11): If you are using Azure in your Windows Phone app that you publish, not only do you get the 1 normal entry into the Apportunity contest, but you also get 1 extra entry as well just for using Azure in your Windows Program app.

Also, for students, for every 3 apps you publish into the contest, you can get a free phone running Windows Phone.

More details can be found here: http://bit.ly/uqdKLe

If any of you are really eager for the Galaxy Nexus here is something I found - expensive, but worth a shot if you got the cash.

Again, I or anyone at XDA team is NOT responsible for this deal, and I don't know the seller - so at your own risk !

[Android Themes] PurPLe SKy:
Hey guys,

this is an icon set which I created for Desktop Visualizer, and also my first release here on XDA.

This icons are in "2x1" size and you can dispose them as you wish.

In the next days I'll release more icons, even with different size and style.

To apply:

Of course you need Desktop Visualizer installed on your phone

Long press on the screen

Select "Desktop Visualizer(2x1)"

Tap the icon

Tap "Select Icon"

Tap "Image File" (if you have the DVRImageSlicer addon you can also choose "Add-Ons" > "NoPaddingPicker" which give better quality images with some launchers)

Select the image

Select the action, clear the laber, remove the touch effect color and press OK.

[Android Themes] PurPLe SKy:
Guys, come on! I need your opinions and feedbacks! Please tell me what you would change (or keep) and I'll try to do my best!
[Android Themes] Dirk:
The icon themselves look great to me! Perhaps your display pictures could show them tiled on a Homescreen? Other sized tiles would make a good addition too so people can mix and match and have different tile layouts?

Keep up the good work!
[Android Themes] PurPLe SKy:
With GO Launcher EX you can really dispose them as you prefer since you can resize the widgets:

And of course I'll release more different size icons (1x1, 4x1 etc.) to create different layouts, but obviously only if I see a bit of interest by you guys, otherwise I'll just stop wasting my time and I'll keep the entire work for my private use :D

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unomasaudio:
Ok, I know this has been posted before, but I can't find my specific problem and I've tried just about everything here and other web sites with no luck.

facts;

1. cannot load CWM any more (stuck at "booting recovery kernel image")

2. cannot load anything into internal memory. I can see a drive show up on my computer but it tells me to insert a disk.

3. APX usb driver works, ran nvflash (different versions) successfully but tablet does not reboot by it self afterwards. it hangs where it reads "Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server"

4. tried recovery through external sd card with no luck.

PLEASE HELP!!!! REALLY LIKE ANDROID AND DON'T WANT TO TRY IPAD.

Look in my signature. Code red.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unomasaudio:
thx goodintentions, but i just tried code red, double red, tripple red and detox. Everything seems to execute fine during nvflash. My computer starts running the bat file and my tablet displays "Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server"

computer finishes bat and reads to press enter, i press enter and window closes, but my tablet never leaves the black screen with the same message "Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server".

Even when i do DETOX my screen displays the red "magic value mismatch" message like it says in your steps, then i nvflash again and i'm back to square one. with 3 birds and no CWM. Any other suggestions?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
Format MISC partition

According to rajeevvp, sometimes formating the MISC partition can fix the tablet not booting into recovery/CWM. I have had other users try this and it has worked for them. Save the attachment with a .bat extension, drop in your nvflash folder & execute it. Power down the gtab after running it and then try restarting in recovery mode.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Did you make sure to wipe data right after nvflash? Did you use the right nvflash file (the one with cwm pre-installed)?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Formatting the "misc" partition is useful only for some specific cases, and this doesn't seem to be one of those. Here, the problem seems to be that he's not able to boot into recovery mode which suggests a CWM problem, possibly due to a bootloader/kernel mismatch.

You should wipe the misc partition if:

1. Every reboot goes into recovery mode.

2. You get a message everytime from the bootloader saying:

If your stock recovery to CWM recovery process was botched or aborted, then you should wipe the cache partition also.

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

Did you use the correct version of CWM for your bootloader? Try loading the latest CWM-4.0.1.5. Use the nvflash command as indicated in the thread with a "--go" tacked on at the end.

Did you go to "mounts and storage", then select "mount USB storage"? If you did, and the drive still appears unformatted, then you'll have to repartition the internal SD card. (There are other ways of fixing this problem without losing (too much) data, but it's fairly advanced involving some command line work in CWM.)

For nvflash to reboot the gtablet, the command line you use has to have a "--go" at the end. If you don't, then the bootloader will wait for additional commands. This is the normal behaviour. Did your command (actually, the final one if there were a sequence of nvflash command lines) have a "--go" at the end?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unomasaudio:
thanks everybody for your input.

rajeevvp , i downloaded CWM-4.0.1.5 but don't quite understand the instructions for execution. (sorry still a newbee).

also, if "mounts and storage" is in a menu of the actual tablet then i can't access it.

NOW THE NEW. in desperation I took it appart and unplugged the battery and tried discharging the caps. still nothing. THEN in even further desperation i shorted a couple of the battery wires wile tablet was ON trying to load the kernel and my tablet went into CWM... this was reproduceable and it loaded CWM every time BUT even thou i could get into CWM I could not actually execute anything from it because it would not detect me touching the HOME button to execute. sooo still stuck.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
This makes me wonder now if you followed goodintentions's code red/.../detox steps correctly: If you've correctly completed any of the code ... procedures listed on the viewsonic g-tablet for dummies site before, then you should not have any trouble with the nvflash instructions for installing CWM-4.0.1.5. Put the tablet into APX mode (Power and Vol [-] key) and then just run the command as listed on your desktop PC.

It is a CWM (Power and Vol [+] key) menu item.

From the frying pan into the fire now, I would say.

What was previously a fixable problem may now have become unfixable. The first order of business is to get the soft-keys working again. Check for loose and unattached cables. When the keys start working again, try installing just CWM after putting the gTab into APX mode. If you have a 1.1 bootloader:

C:\> [B].\nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-smb_a1002_bl1.1.img --go[/B]

Get the bootloader.bin file from one of the zip files on goodintentions's web site. You can use any version of the bootloader.bin file as long as it is for the gTablet, but, for the "--go" parameter to reboot the tablet, the bootloader and the kernel installed should match (ie. 1.1 bootloader should have a 1.1 kernel). The bootloader.bin is just executed and not written permanently anywhere.

If CWM doesn't stick, then see this post.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VSack:
(Note: I'm not new to Android. My recent phone history is HTC Touch Pro -> Palm Pre -> HTC Evo -> Samsung Epic -> Another Evo -> Nexus S 4G -> Epic 4G Touch and I generally spend more time modding than using it.)

Overall, I'm in love with Android. What I haven't been in love with is Samsung. IMO, The radios act up more, their release cycle sucks and now with my Epic 4G Touch losing connectivity and forcing me to reboot just to make sure it works has me at a place I've never been before.

So today I sit with another new phone on my desk, this time its an iPhone 4S.

I've used an iPad, The company issued me a MBP, so I'm not anti-Apple, but I've always sort of looked at the iPhone's as just...well....smart phones for dumb people. But like all technology, aren't we all better if we learn as much as we can?

So, if you were in my shoes, would you esn swap onto the iPhone 4S for the time being and wait until the next best Android thing that isn't Samsung, or ride out the storm and pray Samsung actually releases a fix to all there manufacturing problems? Would you trade the ability to tinker for the ability to have something reliable?

I realize I'm asking in a forum dedicated to Android, mostly because I need to be pulled back from the brink.

SOMEBODY SAVE ME! (or not)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zzim:
You said it yourself its a smartphone for dumb people. Not a bad phone but I would just feel bad about myself using it. I would feel like a fan boy and it seems like your main issue here is LOS. Just use the LOS kernal and you wont have any issues I rarely lose signal using it with starburst.

IMO use the iPhone....it seems like it might be a fit for you based on your post.

However I am losing faith in sprint and their network, I am moving to Verizon ASAP might get the galaxy nexus or the RAZAR becuase at my work I get 20Mb down on LET.....yes 20!!!!....but it averages 15 to 17 down. Get out of sprint is what you need to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TurboFool:
I wouldn't consider switching smartphone OSes on a temporary basis simply because of the app stores. I can't afford to repurchase all the apps I rely on on a new OS. That means I'd be running it in a limited capacity, avoiding purchasing the apps that would max out the enjoyment of the phone for me, knowing I'd eventually give it up and all the money I spent on it.

I think for some people going iPhone is legitimate and reasonable. It works better for certain personalities or needs. I don't begrudge that. But I've doubled-down on Android, and just like people wouldn't leave iPods because it meant losing all their music, I can't just switch OSes any time I want without thinking about the app investment.
