[Kindle Fire General] CrackMonkey91:
Also I would say if you do plan to hack it, you would have to look at two things one nook having a locked bootloader but has more space and sdcard, while fire has unlocked bootloader with only 6gb of usable memory.
[Kindle Fire General] Thelgow:
I had no say in it. Wife wanted a fire, she got it, and then got me one while she was there.

I just heard it had droid and was happy with that.

Later I read about the nook, and I don't like second guessing myself. Only perk I saw was the sd card slot, but if you really use it more for what it was intended, thats more than enough material. As long as I don't go crazy with video, I'll be ok.

also brand new I connected to my desktop and reported 5gb available, so ~3 is being hijacked.

I used to read ebooks 10 years ago on a palm zire. Isilo files, plain .txt, so I'm used to low space.

Its the ability to read comics decently that got me hooked. I read for 2-3 hours straight last night .
[Kindle Fire General] Entropy512:
Actually, that's not a reason to go for the Nook - the Nook's locked bootloader kills it.
[Kindle Fire General] sodaboy581:
Isn't it a bit early to claim the Nook Tablet can boot off of the SD card? It was true for the Nook Color, but may not be true for the Tablet.
[Kindle Fire General] dj_segfault:
They're working on it, but it's true you can't take it for granted that you will be able to boot off the MicroSD card anytime soon. While I am a hacker at heart, I'm OK with that. For that money I don't need it to work 100% like a real Android device, but I do need access to may more progams than the Nook currently has.

Without solving the boot loader problem, they already have the Amazon Appstore running on the Nook with a little work, and the whole Android Marketplace with a lot more work. Likewise, I think I read they got the Nook store on the Fire (for unknown reasons). So "the ecosystem" is now a lot less important than it was at launch time.

I appreciate all your feedback so far. Thank you.
[Kindle Fire General] soundslikemitch:
I have both. I have the fire for myself and the nook for my sister. We both like the fire over all.

The fire feels better in our hands and when using it as a tablet the kindle just plays nicer. The nook has a worse keyboard and doesn't have dedicated buttons for back and menu and home. This makes it quite annoying when using things outside their "eco" system.

The only bad thing we could find is that is doesn't like the epub format and the nook does. But we downloaded an app to take of that so we had no problems what so ever.

I would go with the fire and never look back.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] oka1:
I had the pleasure to meet AndyCR15 of this forum today. He told me he was planning to take a holiday in San Francisco and since I live here I offered to show him around and see the sights. So He flew in from London and we met here in San Francisco and had lunch. Check out his video review it is quite good and worth seeing. Andy Was a Great Guy and I was very pleased to meet him

Anyway, We played around with the Nexus and the Note he had both with him. The Nexus works 3G+ performance speed on TMO

But As you have heard, or read, the Euro version Note......... sorry 2g only.

The Note is fantastic device ...........and as soon as it has ICS...... this will be hands down the absolutely the best all around phone

As soon as the Korean version is released, it will have the 1700/2100 band on it and TMO users will get their desired 3-4G speed. But Wow a fun experience.

All this was because of this site....... thanks XDA community
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] br//0k3/n:
I just got my E4GT a couple weeks ago...all of a sudden, it started going to hell. The touchscreen stopped working pretty much completely, it won't charge and won't acknowledge the USB cable at all, so I can't connect to Odin or flash a stock firmware, or use a usb jig. The screen flashes transparent red/blue, i cant use the touchscreen while charging...

It's a hardware issue, I know but can I still take it in? What are the chances they'll say I can't return it because I rooted it? All of the employees at my sprint store seem pretty clueless...is it worth a try just to see if they can fix/replace it?

I really don't want to pay 100 bucks for a new phone just because I rooted it -__-

Also, my parents are REALLY, REALLY pissed.

Thanks, for the love of god, help me.

I have to go on a trip in 3 days and I NEED my phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Most employees wont know it's been rooted. Especially if they can't get into it like you're saying. If you can get into it, go into settings>Privacy>Factory Reset. This will erase mostly everything on the phone.

You should tell them it just stopped working and ask for an exchange. To me, it sounds like a hardware problem though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] br//0k3/n:
Well...what I'm worried about is that they'll put a different battery in, see that it still turns on, see the custom boot screen/yellow triangle of doom, and tell me to get the **** out. >____<

Should I flash a broken ZIP onto it just to be sure? I have a half-downloaded starburst ROM on my sd card.

If it matters by the wy, I'm running calkulin's rom 1.5, but this started happening on starburst 1.9.8r. I flashed calkulin's to see if it fixed the problem, but nope. :/

Is there a stock ROM I could flash through CWM and not Odin?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sunsparc:
Sprint Repair M&P states that rooted devices are to be triaged by normal process. Part of that triage process is to unroot the device if the problem is suspected to be caused by root.

Worst comes to worst, they unroot the device and you get an exchange.

Have you tried using different usb cables? Just throwing it out there you would be surprised what a bad cable can do. Same with the power block you plug in the wall
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
They won't care about root. Just play dumb if they call you out on it (in other words say you didn't know root is bad - but only if they ask). As far as battery, put the oem battery back in, never use a non oem battery no matter what anyone tells you, I am an engineer who designs these things for a living, correct power supplies are crucial. Finally, they will probably ship you a refurb if you are out of your return period, not in time for your trip. It is just the way it is.

Hi Guys,

Would really appreciate some help. My galaxy s wont turn on and gets very very hot right where the processor is i presume, just below the samsung badge on the screen. & when it does turn on i can only very faintly see the screen in a flickering blue,

So my question is, Is it worth fixing or should i just get a new phone?

Phone was overclocked at 1200Mhz if that helps.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
Boot into download mode and flash a new firmware. That should fix it, unless it's a hardware issue.

I think he proccessor is trying to boot constantly reading (reason for hotness) but it can't find the files to boot i think it's a corrupted file or something try flash a fresh firmware using odin it should boot and won't be hot again
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
I realize that it doesn't boot, but does that mean it won't boot into Android, recovery, or download mode? If it doesn't boot into any of those, you need to buy a USB Jig off eBay (or make one yourself) to get it into download mode. And if that doesn't work, you have bricked your device.

If you would provide us with more information we can give you better answers. How did your phone get into this state? A million things could cause this, including throwing your phone at a wall. If you did that, we can't help you. But if it's software related, we potentially can. So how did you get your phone into this position?

This happen very randomly when my battery power saver turned on and now it won't go away.

It's the Ice Cream Sandwich Nyandroid flying leaving a trail of rainbows!

This is the first boot animation I have ever made and I apologize if it's crappy or choppy. I will try to to make it smoother over time and I will include other versions as well.

How do you install this?

Root Explorer method:

1. Download bootanimation.

2. Place the bootanimation.zip on root of your SD card.

3. Make a copy of the bootanimation and name it sanim.zip and move that to your SD card as well.

4. Open root explorer.

5. Navigate to system/media

6. Select Mount R/W (top right in Root Explorer, on by defauly in ROM Toolbox) then either delete, or move existing bootanimation.zip and sanim.zip

7. Navigate back to sdcard, then copy or move bootanimation.zip to system/media and then repeat with sanim.zip

Thanks to Just_s for the instructions on installing a bootanimation!

Please tell me what you think and feel free to leave suggestions. :)

Hello everyone,

I got a vivid on Saturday and I put in a 4 GB SanDisk card. It worked until either last night or this morning and now it says that the card isn'y mounted. I took out the card, and restarted the phone about 3 times today but it still isn't being recognized. Any suggestions?

Does your computer or any other device recognize it?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] htcfan_:
Yes, My computer is recognizing it actually.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 3f62011:
Try to access and read any file on the card under your PC. My previous SanDisk SD card worked fine for a day, and then phone was keep on going through "preparing" and "safe to remove the card" cycle.

Then, I had mounted the card to PC, and PC was able to mount the card, and displayed the folder structure successfully. However, when I tried to actually access any folder, the PC's file manager started clocking, I could not access any folder, nor read any file on the card through PC. A few minutes later, PC could not mount the card either.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] htcfan_:
Okay, I just tried that and the PC isn't mounting the card either. The card isn't even reading anymore so I'm assuming it just went bad? BUT I just ordered a 16GB Card, so hopefully everything goes good again.

It's a binary file. This app executes bootanimation resources.
