[HTC Sensation XL] shingers5:
Had mine now for about 5 hrs and I have done as much as I can do with it in such a short time. YouTube hq is flawless but BBC iPlayer hq seems less crisp and slightly pixelated. Also I did a 720 hd video and I was not blown away as seen sharper even on old galaxy s I9000. Screen res really needed that qhd bump for high res vids. Emails all sync fine and battery also seems to hold up well. I quite like the size of it and it reminds me of my HTC flyer. Will keep playing and posting my thoughts
[HTC Sensation XL] Urban Strata:
Hmm... If you bought your Sensation XL through retail channels and it's having this issue, please contact customer support.
[HTC Sensation XL] onesolo:
Can you please report about the battery, how long can it last with normal usage?!?!
[HTC Sensation XL] Raspster:
Ok, just found a newer ROM dated Oct 24 vs. the original one of Oct 14th. Just installed. See what this does.
[HTC Sensation XL] nintendolinky:
How do you find the rom date, and can you let us know where the newest dated rom is.
[HTC Sensation XL] Raspster:
Can't find anything on the phone that offically gives a date but the kernal was dated on my stock ROM with Oct 14th 2011. The NEW stock ROM I installed gave a kernal date of Oct. 24th. FYI, Don't seem to be having issues with the facebook chat widget now but the skype will NOT stay logged in for more than an hour. I beleive this is a combatibility issue with the app and it needs to support the sensation XL. I am sure this will be addressed with a future Skype update.

I've made an app that turns on dolby mobile for any app, not just HTC music. It works on any ROM that gives you the option of dolby mobile when you type in snd3254 in a terminal. It requires root.

I'm also working on an update.zip for other phones to use it ;)

I'll give it a shot.

Does it just turn one mode on or can it switch between modes? I.e. Headset or Speaker?

Better Keyboard
[Verizon Droid Charge] PeterGunz:
Stock gingerbread or Swype.

Stock GB is the only keyboard without lag, in my experience. If it wasn't for the lag I would say Smart Keyboard. SwiftKey would be amazing if it had an option to make the space bar larger. My texts are full of extra periods throughout from using it.

I use this themed version of HTC IME mod. just unzip and install apk. then go to settings, keyboards and check box. has tons of settings for key adjustment ,Smileys etc.if it has any lag,its faster than I can type
[Verizon Droid Charge] svzurich:
I alternate between SwiftKeyX which I love and the standard Samsung keyboard which always works.

By that I mean the SwiftKeyX hangs on most drop-down boxes on sites. For example, when selecting state for shipping, it will hang after selecting the drop-down. Otherwise it learned my typing style and works great!

For anything with an address, I switch back to the Samsung keyboard which is functional like the IOS keyboard.

I am hoping that when I root and update my phone, SwiftKeyX will work better.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chirashi:
I watched the noob video, and called my mom but I couldn't get any help.

Of course I searched too, but I couldn't find the specific answer to what I was looking for.

I have my SGS2 rooted and have the litening rom. I'd like to get back to stock. I've read to go back, I just have to flash the stock firmware using Odin. My question is do I have to flash to the stock kernel as well? I'm a little lost on the kernel bit, what do I do with it if anything?

I'm following this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

I want to unroot, so after flashing the stock rom, I flash stock kernel as well without worrying about insecure kernel and all that jazz?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Flash the stock rom you need with Odin, after reboot do a hard reset (*2767*3855#), make a backup of your apps and files first. You don`t need to flash a kernel after flashing the rom. Done

Latest Stock Rooted Rom?

can someone please give me a link to a stock but which is rooted and i can flash via recovery manager and keep my recovery and unlocked boot loader.

thankyou
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankimm:
If you want a rom based on CM 7 with the stock gingerbread launcher then Id say use kang o rama.

but if you want one thats purly based on the googles official build of gingerbread then id say grab one based on 2.3.4
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude Random21:
I think he wanted a link. To answer your question though the best way to get the most stable stock like ROM is to flash a stock ROM (you can use passimg) then to go into recovery and flash SU (check my sig for the link). The only thing with this is that your recovery will go back to stock when you reboot the ROM to avoid this you will need to delete install-recovery.sh it's in "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh"

[Acer Iconia A500] metpolds:
Look in the Developer threads there are (TUT)orials there. Any way I would download the "Acer Recovery Installer" app from the Market, that will make it relatively easy to flash a custom ROM to your tab.

Thanks guys, i'll give these both a whirl.

A lot of the fax apps have problems with not actually sending, or the fax machine never receives it.

This will be for my time-sheets at work, so my pay is directly affected by the fax not making it in on time, and 24 hours can mean my pay gets tied up for several paychecks.

Any issues with non-received faxes that you know of?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, update:

Got a trial account with www.myfax.com

After checking out my options and spending some time reading up on it this morning, seemed like the best move. I appreciate the two posters above giving me something to chew on that led to this.

Tried them out, sent faxes from my email to a couple local copy shops. All printed in a timely fashion, so seems like it's pretty decent. I'll keep using my free trial to put it to the test, but if it keeps working this well i'll be switching to a paid subscription probably before the trial is over.

The minimum plan they offer on a yearly basis will save me a little more then half the money I spend on sending faxes a year, so that's pretty awesome.

Now the hunt is on for a good scanner app to get the document into the phone and fax ready.

I've been tinkering with Scan-to-PDF that I bought a while ago in the google market, but it's just not up to snuff for this task. I'm looking for something that'll do full page scans and not make it look like a picture from a phone when it prints out on the fax machine I send it to.

To that end, Droid Scan Pro PDF looks like the most promising candidate for an app to scan into PDF format, i'll pick it up later in the week or early next ... whenever I dump another gift card into the app market.

Meantime, if anyone knows anything about that app, good bad or indifferent, i'd love to hear it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dontwakethellama:
Camscanner is an amazing pdf creator. Free in the market.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Camscanner is pretty cool, but haven't had the chance to play with it much - had a lot on my plate recently.

I also got the app I mentioned in my last post, but haven't had the chance to use it yet.

Sometime in the next week i'll post a review of how they work out. My next scheduled shift is on the 28th, so sometime not long after that i'll have to fax a time card in.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dkris2020:
Ok I like how the commuter case is somewhat slim and it maintains the original form factor of the phone giving it a lower profile but giving it great protection. I also like how the Aegis has more options for color although it looks a little thicker. Which one should i go for?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Linch89:
I like the defender personally
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dizzyman1180:
I have a commuter case I'm selling if your interested? Pm me for details
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] vrgelinas:
I have had the commuter for a couple of months and it is a great case. I've dropped my inc2 a couple of times with no ill effects. The only complaint I might have is that the headphone jack is a little recessed, so a 90 degree plug doesn't work too well, but a 45 and a straight plug work just fine. Pretty minor complaint.

I like that the seal of the case is enough that I don't get crap built up around the edge of the screen and in the ports like tends to happen with cheap cases.

I use an invisible shield brand screen protector (the only kind I will use - lifetime warranty and no bubbles! Harder to put on...).

If you look on Amazon, you can get the case for about 1/2 price or less, and the shield for the same amount. Including shipping, it came to less than 40 for my setup.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] seventystangfan:
I use the commuter. Without any screen protector. I just love the feeling of the screen. Nothing getting in the way ya know? It is gorilla glass, but take your chances of your own accord.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bbmayg:

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] coley909:
I had a blue Aegis case I loved it at first then crap would always get behind the screen protector that the case has and then the corners started breaking and not clipping together anymore, I am back to zagg and cheap hybrid case this case I can't complain about http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-6350-IN...ccessories&hash=item1c1bcbd6b4#ht_1789wt_1037 I have mine in red is all. I just ordered a otterbox commuter though so I have high expectations for the otterbox. if not ill go back to my ebay hybrid case. it isn't rubbery it is hard inside but soft to touch on outside so it can slide on not snap together.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bbmayg:
I use a different screen protector...the case itself is pretty darn good.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rjason09:
I am also tied between the Commuter and the Trident Aegis since my Incipio SILICRYLIC case broke..by looking at the Aegis pictures, it looks like it covers up the Notification LED for sure, and it looks close to the front-facing camera..Is this a problem for any of the owners?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bbmayg:
It does cover up the LED but the front facing camera is not covered at all. Hope that helps :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rjason09:
Commuter

I bought the Otterbox Commuter from Newegg, and so far I like it. It slips out of your pocket really easily because the back is slippery, more slippery than the back of the phone in my opinion. I wish the silicon was tighter on the phone, but it is still tighter and a better case than my old incipio.

You can get the full item collection from a list, and iterate through it using a for loop (by the way, most collections allow array-style indexing in C#) or simply use an iterator and do remove/replace (if supported) or build a new collection based on the old values and then replace the collection in use.

Hello

I have a problem with my HTC Desire

During boot, it is blocked on HTC logo (green font on white)

I tried the recovery mode (Volume DOWN + POWER) but same issue...

I tried remove the battery for 3 minutes, and then restart boot...same issue

Before this problem, the phone was a bit slow. I wanted to reboot it...then I had the issue.

The ROM installed is a custom rom android 2.2, that I have forgot the name.

I saw in the web the quite same problem...but every users could start in recovery mode. I can't.

Can you help me?

Thanks by advance

New to the Android platform. It's surprising how 'connected' they are. Apologies if this is the wrong forum. I'll be happy to post elsewhere or see this post moved.

I have an Epic 4G Touch.

I've been pondering the security and privacy aspect of these Android phones, and it seems to me that precautions are prudent, but I’m not exactly sure what precautions are necessary and how to put them into practice. I’m really not even sure what questions to ask. I’m very computer literate, so I guess that gives me a head start of sorts.

I guess complete privacy, information safety and anonymity is impossible, but I hope there is some sort of method that will allow as much as is available.

The questions below are examples of some of the questions I have.

Is there some sort of primer that covers these and other details that should be known?

Questions that occur:

1. What is the most secure way to purchase apps? How do the ‘savvy’ users handle this? And should they be purchased online or via the phone? What method of payment are most comfortable with?

2. Is it a bad idea to access other online accounts from the phone, or is it better to establish some sort of new account with a ‘credit limit’ or a low limit credit card?

3. I’m using a few of my ‘anonymous’ Gmail accounts on the phone. I’m not sure how much privacy this provides, given that the phone is in my name?

4. Are there practices that should be avoided (i.e., emailing my 'non-mobile’ accounts)?

5. After getting up to speed, I’ll likely be rooting. Any extra security precautions required? I guess an app like LBE Privacy Guard is warranted?

I suppose a good primer will cover much more. Thanks for any help :).

[General Questions and Answers] R1ptide:
First you need to decide how private you want to be.

Hiding your activity from Sprint for example would be fairly difficult. The ET4G is setup to route all internet traffic through sprint's proxies, you can change this (search the ET4g forums to find out how) but I'm certain that sprint could still monitor your activity if they wanted to unless you setup some kind of VPN which I don't even know if we can do on our phones.

Next up would be google, they make money by gathering information about you... so yeah if you want to hide from them your a tad limited since this is android. I guess you could just not associate a gmail account with the phone, but then whats the point of running android?

Personally I'm not insanely worried about the above two entities. What concerns me is the tons of random apps people load onto phones that have every permission granted you could think of. This is where LBE Privacy Guard comes into play and should be used regardless of rooting. Safest place to get apps is the official market, downloading cracked apps opens you up to who knows what.

Anyway thats my spiel
