No data connection at all, 3g CDMA or LTE, since about 11:45PM. Able to send and receive phone calls and SMS fine. Drove from plantation to pompano beach (a good 20 mile stretch of south florida). This is getting old. Anyone else?

[Networking] Zytryx:
Well the AT&T website has been updated and the HTC Vivid is available (though only in black) but the option for unlimited data for those that can grandfather are there, woohoo!
[Networking] donsh00tmesanta:
Yay!!!!! Wish I still had my unlimited account.....what other data options are there?
[Networking] slimslim:
Great news!
[Networking] Zytryx:
200MB for $15

2GB for $25

4GB with tethering for $45
[Networking] slimslim:
if you think about it, it makes sense a little, since in most areas is no lte yet
[Networking] donsh00tmesanta:
no!!!!!!

2gb cap cruising at 400KB/s to 5MB/s is no good!!!

I wonder if they will throttle lte for unlimited peeps

I wish verizon and at&t would keep lte unlimited since it offloads traffic off their normal network (like 2gb 3g/unlimited lte)
[Networking] slimslim:
I think the throttle cap is 5GB, I usually go over 3.5-4GB / mo and I see no throttle.

By the way, I have grandfathered unlimited.
[Networking] Zytryx:
I myself rarely if ever go over 2gb but its nice to not have to worry, and I'm lucky enough to live in a LTE area.
[Networking] milan03:
Got SGS2 LTE on AT&T yesterday and I'm officially grandfathered into LTE unlimited data.

Happy camper, smoking fast phone!
[Networking] Longcat14:
There's no cap on the unlimited data, they just go by the top 2% or so.

Really, you would have to know data statistics in your city to know when you'll be throttled.

[NFC Hacking] One4mNoWhere:
Could it be the fact that sprint came up with their wallet app that's why they disregarded the new tech?

no because the sprint nexus s 4g has nfc and google wallet. sprint is the first carrier to support nfc in the States.

I've seen muiu ROM users able to achieve the custom carrier like the iPhone etc...

[General Questions and Answers] DPMAce:
Are smart phones going down in price faster than they did a couple of years ago?

I can buy a samsung s2 for $540 on amazon.com when it's on sale. The s2 is not even a year old, if I'm not mistaken.

I'm pretty sure when the HTC HD2 was released, it took alot longer to go down in price.

And some people are saying they bought the samsung galaxy note for $700 - 760, even before it was officially released.

So following this trend, can we expect to have top of the line quality smartphones for $300 or less within 5 years?
[General Questions and Answers] TJBunch1228:
They go down faster in price now because they are releasing more faster.
[General Questions and Answers] donsh00tmesanta:
Way too much and too fast

Slow it down htc
[General Questions and Answers] bleach168:
In a few years, I can see $300 models being more than enough for most people. They will still sell top of the line models for $700-800, but fewer people will buy them.
[General Questions and Answers] vnvman:
The S2 is actually *months* old and you can find it at about 410€ on many sites. Anyway, i really don't uderstand why people complain about this: it's a phone, not a share, the least it costs the better. Does it make sense that the totally outdated iPhone4 still costs 700€? How is that good for you unless you wanna sell it? If you want bleeding edge technology then you have to live with the fact that your toy will have its price dropped soon, regardless what you paid for it. Imho phones are meant to be used, and not to be sold, so i'm really happy about what's going on on the android platform. As a power user i care about my SPECS not being reasonably up to date, the price doesn't really matter to me anyway. To make it clearer: i don't upgrade my GPU every time a new one comes out just for the sake of being up to date, i do that when my rig can't stand the current games or a particular game i wanna play anymore, and when i do i'm happy if i can find one at a lower price.
[General Questions and Answers] Fandonius:
Totally agree. Anyway you should consider that a trend is a trend. No matter what. Stupid people will pay a lot of €uros just to get themselves realized and soccially accepted. Silly ones.
[General Questions and Answers] CarlosCalderon:
But its not nice for the people which bought the phones early... and sometimes even are early adopters or better beta testers...
[General Questions and Answers] JPeterson66:
Yeah i bought mine early and now its way cheaper haha next time i know to just wait
[General Questions and Answers] vnvman:
That's the point: complaining makes no sense at all...once you understand that androids aren't the kind of phones (especially Samsung ones) to buy on the day they are released you're just fine. I waited a few months before getting my GS2, so i was able to find it at the price of 490€ in August. All in all it was a good bang for the buck i think: i don't care if we get quadcores in 2012, i wanna enjoy my phone NOW, whatever i choose, and possibly at a reasonable price.
[General Questions and Answers] Fenvarien:
With more competition, Android ICS on the horizon and more frequent releases prices will continue to go down.
[General Questions and Answers] DPMAce:
wow, are people really complaining? This is a really exciting time for phonophiles!

Always an exciting new phone on the horizon. And the prices keep on dropping faster and faster. I have my eye on the Galaxy Note right now. And I know if I can wait a couple of months, the price will drop drastically, and there will probably be an even better phone released by then. And so many accessories to go with each phone!!
[General Questions and Answers] jr866gooner:
Now that i have a decent phone in the share of a galaxy s2 i know that i would not be in too much of a rush for a phone upgrade time. Before i had a wildfire which i hated so wasn't wanting to wait too long for a phone and my upgrade was due at release.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
I got a message saying I was getting low on space. I bought a program call SD Maid which tells me I've used 1.4 GB out of 1.97 GB. It has an option called "CORPSE FINDER" which comes up with some files like:

com.motorola.batterymonitor

com.motorola.blur.contacts.deferred

com.motorola.android.wmdrm.webpush

com.motorola.android.simmanager

com.mot.readout

com.motorola.dock.provider

these files are located in /data/data/

and /data/data/.com.mot.readout/lib

and /data/data/com.motorola.dock.DesktopDock/shared_prefs/com.motorola.dock

Is is OK to delete these files?

Are there other obvious files I can delete off the phone?

Another app called FREE SPACE tells me I have used 93% of system space or 298MB out of 319MB available. Is there a way to increase the available space?

Thanks for any suggestions
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthew5025:
What? Move apps to internal memory if you need space.

How can you fill up 10GB?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Agreed, move apps to internal storage. And you can use DiskUsage to see exactly what is taking up how much space and delete it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
no effect

Moving apps to external SD or uninstalling apps has NO EFFECT on the SYSTEM space, according to FreeSpace (ROOT). After uninstalling apps the space used by the SYSTEM remains unchanged at 93%:

size: 319.5 MB

used: 298.5 MB

free: 20.9 MB

Uninstalling apps or widgets decreases the space used by DATA which currently is:

size: 2015.8 MB

used: 1371.8 MB

free: 643.9 MB

So the issue is how to decrease space used by the (android) SYSTEM.

thanks

nothing user created is being stored on the /system partition. that partition is only for the ROM itself, all your customizations go to /data partition (except if you modify your /system partition with root access and adb/terminal/root explorer) you shouldnt be bothered about the free space in the /system partition. the /system partition is supposed to stay as it is throughout your usage - except if you flash another rom or mod this one. thats it
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
free space

Thanks for your info. I am rooted, and installed root explorer, but thats it. I have recently gotten the laptop dock. The only reason this came up was because of a message about low space in my drop down menu. I have a lot of apps installed but have ample space in all partitions except the system partition. I didn't write the message down, but if it comes up again I will in order to get an idea of where its coming from.

WAIT. THAT's IT.....the laptop dock. That message must have come from using the dock !!

I will confirm next time it happens......

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] valerinism:
I can't say that I have ever had any of my phones or parts subjected to water immersion. But a lot of people swear by placing the phone/battery in a bag with uncooked dry rice in it. The rice will absorb all the water/moisture from the electronics. Leave the device/battery in the sealed bag for 8-12 hours and you should be good to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
It should be fine, just let it dry. The problem is when the battery is in the phone because the circuit shorts. If it doesn't work you can order one on amazon for pretty cheap.

Yes your battery will be find. Once it dries of course. Remember, some people put batteries in the Freezer to try and recharge them (theoretically true, but the charge is miniature). And of course the freezer put's frost on the batteries. The devices be fine.

So yea. Just let your battery dry. Though I find your story pretty random. The fact that the battery got wet? eL oh eL!! :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkgodz:
Most stores will give you a replacement battery as a courtesy as long as you are still under warranty. Some will give you a replacement regardless.

On the "rice" thing, yes it does work pretty well at drying out the phone. As a technician in a Sprint store though, when I find rice inside the phone, it gets flagged.

Have seen it many times, 3 to 4 grains of rice during on the circuit board. Makes me chuckle every time.
[Dell Streak 7] UrbanAlkemist:
Apologies for the vagueness, but I really have no idea. I have a wifi only dell streak 7. It is not rooted although gingerbreak is on the device. It has android 2.2.2 on it, and I dont use it often due to no internet at the house. It has Launcher pro on it and several other customized options that I have done to it when it was being used regularly. Recently it has been turned off for some time just sitting on my desk. Before it was turned off it worked fine. Now when I turn it on, everything seems to crash. I can still use the stock dell launcher (forgot what it was called) but I had it to go to launcher pro and all the customized options that I had before by default, but now when I turn it on, it tells me that that (launcher pro) amongst other things, has stopped unexpectedly please try again. Says process android.process.acore. Then I have to use only the stock option stuff. I dont know what happened. Ive had a lot of trouble with this and it is still under warranty.. I tried the pin reset and all that I could think to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I want to keep it and use it and keep it but it just keeps doing buggy stuff. Please help. Thanks all.

[Xoom General] syrenz:
I'm in the market to get a new/first tablet. I've been looking around the web a bit. The new Asus transformer prime is sounding like a beast, but with the keyboard dock it will probably be fairly expensive and I'm not sure I really need that kind of power for my uses. Then I saw the new Xoom2 and I was intrigued but saw a lot of "it's barely an upgrade from the Xoom" kind of posts. After looking at the specs for Xoom and considering the fact that it will probably be significantly cheaper than the new gen of tablets, I'm possibly interested in it. Here's what I want from a tablet:

+Browsing - I want a tablet that is very capable of browsing the internet with ease and fluidity.

+Work/Note-taking/productivity - I want to be able to write articles and write down lecture notes very easily. How good is the typing experience on 10inch tablets with the virtual keyboard? There is always the bluetooth keyboard option I suppose.

+Movies/youtube - I want a tablet that's great for watching videos. How's the display on the Xoom?

+Front-facing camera - I need a tablet capable of doing video chat well. How good is the quality of the front facing camera and video chatting?

+Speed - I don't need a super-powered beast, but I need something that won't struggle on a day-to-day basis and that runs fast. How's the speed and fluidity on this tablet? With the Quad-core transformer prime coming, I want to know how this actually performs.

+Camcorder - In actuality I don't plan on using a tablet for its camera or camcorder, but I would have some use for good video recording on a tablet. Not really a factor in my decision, but how is the video recording quality on this thing?

+Design/styling - I've seen a lot of references to the thickness of the Xoom, but it does't look bad to me in pics/videos. How does this tablet actually look irl to you?

+Future Updates - I understand that this will be getting ICS. Not sure it will continue to get further updates. However, it is my belief that the original Xoom is bound to have probably the largest online community for a tablet for a while. That means that even if this doesn't get future updates, the community here will probably be able to support this tablet for quite a while (like the OG droid). Does that sound right?

+Pricing/availability - How much do new Xoom's tend to cost? Quick ebay search seemed to say around $450+ but that doesn't sound right. I suppose once the Xoom2 is released, motorola will reduce the price on their website.

+Your opinion - What is your overall opinion on the Xoom? Would you still recommend it?

Thanks :)
